#thank you again bestie!

[butteronabun]

Hallo Butter!!

I'm really ecxited to talk with you, I'm new on Tumblr, and you've been one of the only who I followed from the start, the second I gave a glance at your account I felt in love with your writing style and ideas!! Your basically an writing idol for me. I am really shy to talk with others since I'm new tho, I've been wanting to talk with you for months now, hence, I've got the courage now and here I am. ILYSM <3

So, now introduced myself, I wanted to ask... 1)How would Luc react if we sang to him the song "All I want for Christmas is you" while wearing an Christmas deer costume? Lmao

2)As a newbie I've got some ideas to write as well, I need tips in how to write, to post, to settle yourself into the community, etc. Basically a tut for newbies. Could you help me, pretty please??

OMG OMG OMG !!! seeing this for the first time made me so happy! i feel so honored!! it’s so nice to meet you !! 🫂

i have no words. i feel flattered. and i feel shy. for you to be in love with my writing and consider me as an idol? wow. that’s— i’m just so speechless rn, i’m not even kidding! i didn’t really expect this ?? WAAAAAH ( long response under the cut )

ilysm too 🥹🥹 i’m so glad you’ve got the courage to send me an ask & finally talk to me, or else i wouldn’t have known this. because wdym for months??? i just started this blog since july!!! GKDHDKD feel free to send many more asks my way, and i’ll try my best to answer them ASAP!! whatever they are, i’ll respond!! HUGSSS

okay, now for your questions:

1. it would honestly depend on the situation 🤭 what does the deer costume look like? would it be cute or sexy? if the reader wore a deer onesie, diluc would definitely be endeared and would find the reader adorable.

however, if it was one of those. . . lowkey revealing deer costumes, i’d say diluc would be flustered LMAO

but omg, back to what i was saying, i just love love the idea of wearing a deer onesie and just singing to diluc that he’s everything you want. yes. man will definitely fall in love with you again because he’s so pathetic and so romantic and gosh he’s besotted, someone help him

i could picture this so clearly omg. inside the manor there’s the cute reader up to their teasing again, and of course, beside the christmas tree, singing their heart out to diluc — “i just want you for my own, more than you could ever know” / “make my wish come true”

and archons diluc will indeed make your wish come true. if it’s within his power, he’ll give you what you want.

( though is his being really enough for you? are you sure you do not want anything for christmas? ) 🎄

he has lots of mora. he’ll buy you anything!!!

“BABY ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS—MMPH!?”

yeah. diluc just can’t contain himself anymore and kisses you right there and then.

2. as for writing tips, bear with me - i’ll try my best to help you!!! ❤️

i know it’ll be cliche of me to say this but ig you’ll have to 1) practice and practice? i wrote ever since i was like. 9 or 10, and i’m still practicing today. i still have to improve some parts of my writing, and there are still errors that i miss out on GJDHDK

buuuut. . .since i kind of lowkey wanna get into my own personal lessons, i’d say 2) write for yourself. i’m not kidding.

like sure, it’s already the obvious but if you always write for yourself, if you always write from the heart, it’ll make things easier. and it will help you get through it. remember, if you ever get frustrated over your first draft, just remember that you can always go back to it next time and edit it. just write and write and write. go barf. go crazy. your first draft will not be perfect immediately but look at the bright side!!! ✨ you have written something, and that’s enough! ✨

no need to fret over your first draft because after that, you have the freedom to revise it and make some improvements ~ and if you have the urge rn to write, GO WRITEEEEEEE !!! writer’s block is such a pain and if you have the Writing SpreeTM, don’t waste it. you might create something good 😘

then 3) try to imitate a writing style that you really like. to put it simply, if we were artists, try to like, find a reference or an artist’s art that you adore and create your own piece with it.

( it’s the ✨ POWER OF INSPIRATION ✨ )

in my experience, i read lots of books and from there, i met who my favorite writers were. i met my own writing idols! i loved how they wrote, and even studied how they tell their creations. i could gush how i’m inspired by them sm like - there’s this one particular writer who was really great at describing or imagery that i’m still trying to achieve it? like if you just read their pieces, there’s a movie playing in your mind! that was the effect they’ve given on me, and i want that !!

ofc you’re not gonna copy ( nuh-uh! ), and i do think it’s impossible to copy someone’s style because you’ll have your personal touch with it. but that’s what’ll make it unique, since it has your branding :) also, won’t it be amazing that in your writing, you’ve brought your favorite writer along the way because they’re part of your very own mosaic? 🌸 eventually, you’ll have your own writing style. 🥰

and lastly, 4), regarding the community, just seriously be yourself!

i’m kind of a newbie as well to tumblr ( since there are still things that i DO NOT KNOW and DO NOT UNDERSTAND - skill issue for me honestly / j ) but yeah. be kind, be friendly, and be respectful - your typical internet etiquette! ✨

fun fact, i actually planned to just post some of my fics here & dip ( since i’m so busy irl 😭 ) but then life has its own mysterious ways and now i’m interacting with awesome diluc lovers :) hopefully, you’ll get to interact with others too 🥰

i’m gonna end it here now since it has gotten long. again, thank you for this ask, it was really sweet!!! your ask made me so happy!!

i wish you well in your future endeavors. i can’t wait to see you post your own diluc ideas ( if you ever plan to! )

have a great day! 🫂🫂

[temeyes]

sobbing I LOVE YOUR STYLE One moment it's all serious then we just have it to sweet litol big-eyed babies 😭

I shall ask if i can feast on your art 🥺

Welcome one and all to my version of the party's loopified designs, featuring my many broken bones and blood stains I especially put into Odile who I tackled second unlike the alphabetical order that I have presented here! I'll have in-depth discussions on each designs and matching practice portraits under the cut but before that-

Siffrin 'barely taller than a preteen' no middle name no last name Loop is still barely taller than a preteen but now that preteen can claim fire to their height!

Alphabetical order GO!

Bonnie, who I've been calling Bonfire (which if that ends up being their name I can imagine Bonnie calling them 'Fire' while they call Bonnie 'Face' to match), was the last of my designs because frankly I knew from the start what their design was going to take influence from and also knew I was going to draw fire :P They were based on bonfires (of course) and also specifically the Burning Man effigies just for a humanoid figure, plus being a chef cooker and a campfire and also a very heated expressive person.

Their flames are hot but not actual wood burning so the Favour Tree (and Mirabelle in the height chart) are not at risk of combusting, they're just incredibly bright-

Isabeau my first design, with influences from @basilpaste 's Lock (with a dressform body) and @nullapophenia 's original version of Husk (the faceless identityless sketch), I have combined them both to make a mannequin it/its loopified design that finally gets to be capital T Tall all for the low low price of being Changed against its will and suffering another bout of body dysphoria that it can't fix anymore :) :) :) When I was referencing mannequins I actually noticed how long their legs actually were let alone how they were perma-stuck in that Barbie-like highheel pose and thought why don't I just curse Isa with something he previously wanted :P

Something something Isabeau actively Changed not only his body but his personality to become someone he wouldn't be ashamed of, yada yada Loopsabeau is back to hating itself and has started to become a person it despises to match (also like a mannequin it's head and arms are technically painlessly removeable :P)

Third in order and third in design is Mirabelle, who technically is the only loopified design with technically hair and clothes, but the hair are the tangled roots of the Favour Tree and the clothes are like the carved hardstone statues of religious figures :P Initially my Idea for Mirabelle was to make her kinda like her statue, with the wonky expression of someone who made it without much mastery over details, not to pit anything against Mira, no, no. Thought about maybe abstract statue design but I couldn't find a version I liked but I did always imagine her statue being weathered in some way, there was a reason why I saved her for third I couldn't pick what I wanted. But then I remembered the broken Change God statues, thought about the 'blessing' that ended up being a curse, and then thought about overgrown weathering and gave her the roots.

I actually looked up Black hairstyles and mostly wondered what specific hair texture Mirabelle had (she wears it in a fro of course, but she has flyaways that aren't coils, but she described her own hair as kinky and :P) so that if I were to mimic hair with tree roots I can get an appropriate matching hairstyle (settled on megatwists). Hah, if Mira has 4C hair, considering how long her hair actually looks, if she to wear her hair in twists she might actually have elbow length hair :P

I spent 8 non-consecutive hours on Odile can you tell? Can you see my hands bleeding my wrist breaking my eyes drooping? Yeah so Odile was again, my second design and it took me a week to recover, and she's a combination of gem and mirror suit with all the little fragments floating around her the 'diamonds' that represent all her family members party plus the ones she originally had in sets of 2. I also put geodes where parts of her body have broken off (inspired by how when the King strikes she can't move, plus also being a glass canon) where when I was actually drawing those geodes that they kinda use the Change symbol?

Circle within a circle within a circle, regardless of how wiggly it is, and at the centre is a cluster of crystals. That was an accidental reference to Odile's mixed heritage but hoo boy what a connection! Her missing pieces are a combination of 'being too old for this' fragility and also 'i didn't want to render more mirrors sue me'

Anyway I am going to put my wrist in a cast and imagine loopified party members with their pre-wish counterparts :P

[songbirdreaped]

open starter for anybody ; set after lucy gray left the cabin <3 run. run. RUN. was all that could go through lucy gray's head as she sprinted away from the cabin through the trees. she was running as fast as her legs would carry her, everything in her telling her that she needed to get away from him if she wanted to survive. the words kept ringing in her head three's enough for me, he'd told her when she said they wouldn't have to kill anymore. three. she knew of two. bobbin and mayfair. all she'd asked for was the truth, yet she was met with a lie. my old self, coriolanus had told her as she demanded to know who the third was. lucy gray wasn't born yesterday, she could spot a lie from a mile away.

trust was the most important thing to her. trust outweighed love and yes, she had loved him. loved. now, all she could picture was those icy blue eyes gazing into her soul. would he kill her ? she didn't know, but she wasn't taking that chance. she couldn't take that chance. that was why she'd said she was going to pick katniss, her chance to escape and survive. lucy gray wished that she'd heeded dean highbottom's warning, wished that she hadn't let herself fall for the blond. any and all love she felt was gone, now all that was left was the need to flee.

as she kept running, the brunette felt her chest tightening, the crisp air filling her lungs, stinging as her heart raced in her chest. she needed to stop and catch her breath. ducking behind a tree, lucy gray took a moment, the breaths coming out more like gasps as she stayed there. the sound of coriolanus yelling for her caused her to panic more. she wasn't a fighter, he outpowered her anyway, but she could run. she could hide.

when she spotted the snake, lucy gray decided that she'd try to buy herself some time, dropping the scarf he'd given her to cover it up. she knew by looking at it that the snake wasn't venomous, it wouldn't hurt him too badly if he got bitten. it would just slow him down enough for her to get away. after the distraction was set, the brunette began to run again, hoping that the wind in the trees would cover up any noise that came from her feet on the ground.

it wasn't until she was hidden by a tree on the outer part of the woods that she'd realized her earring had fallen out in all of the chaos. she couldn't find it in herself to care anymore. the games weren't over when she'd returned home, these were still the games. her own survival was what mattered. lucy gray almost didn't notice the sound of footsteps coming toward her, but when she did it was too late to run. whoever it was had only been two paces from her now, and with how tired she was, they'd most likely be able to catch her if she ran. her eyes shut tightly as she braced herself for the figure to come closer, assuming it was coriolanus coming to kill her, to finish tying up the loose ends.

❝ just get it over with, ❞ the words came out more shaky than she'd intended. she wasn't usually one for giving up, but she knew that she had no more energy to keep running. if coriolanus had found her, then he won.

Oh man okay, sure!

🌧 - "Something angsty from your wip"

Featuring a snippet from one of my very many "Hyacinth's awakening" attempts:

His name is Hyacinthus Amyclus of Amyclae and once, he was a prince. He had been an auspicious prince, chosen by the gods themselves. Man of the People, they’d called him, the Sun Shepherd. He remembers because the sister in his mind wears braided laurels on her arm. Women weren’t to wear laurels. Not like the ones he’d had. He remembers the him who’d laughed at such a declaration, the shock in the eyes of the man who’d dared to question the habits of his prince and princess. If it were against divine law for a woman to wear her brother’s laurels then let the lord of the laurel come down from the heavens and tear them from her himself.  Yes, he’d laughed then. Had stood his ground, had protected his sister’s limited freedoms.  Maybe that’s why he’s here now. Alone. In the dark. With nothing but fading memories for company. He’d tested the gods one too many times and now he was condemned to hell.  “It’s not like you to be so self-pitying, Hyacinthus.” The memory of warm hands cling to him. Bright fingers which cup the edge of his jaw, a softer smile than that of his brother, a closer touch than that of his sister’s. It slips from his jaw down to his neck. Pinches the side of his throat. Right, of course. How could he regret questioning the gods when they were so damn annoying? A laugh like honey seeps into his ear, the scent of laurel and reed. “That’s better.”  This too is punishment. For which crime, Hyacinth can’t quite remember, but he was certain this was divine providence. Maybe his pride, for daring to possess a god. Maybe his hubris for believing he would be an exception to the fates.  “Now, that’s not entirely fair, my dear.” And him, with his aureate hair like the rays of the sun and his darkly shining eyes as rich and gold as the honeycomb. He, who lingers above Hyacinthus’ prone body even now, picking at his corpse and leaving marks on his death-pale skin, he was the cruellest punishment of them all. A teasing laugh like wind over the rolling hills, cold kisses that do not fill the aching emptiness carved and bleeding in Hyacinthus’ chest. He is the only thing that is more ghost than memory. His madness given golden form and domain over him, the only man he had ever bared his throat to over and over and over again.  “Is this not an eternity as I promised? Here, with me?”  Hyacinthus feels his cold hands on his throat, mere whispers of the heat his body recalls in that foggy once-upon-a-time of his memories. Fine hairs flower petal soft spill onto his forehead, must be making a blood stain of gold on the ground around him. There is no air for him to breathe, no muscle for him to tense and yet he is flush with bitterness anew. “I do not know where I am. Or how much time has passed. Or when next I will see my family.”  The impression of his palm is smaller than the one in Hyacinthus’ memory. Maybe, like his sister, this phantom too will break down and fade away. Maybe that is why he can no longer feel the overwhelmingness of his heat. “Those things lay deep in the domain of the dead. I cannot grant them to you.”  How many times have they had this exchange? How many more times would they say these things to each other?  “Then let me die. Pay my fee and let me die.”  Over and over again.

And ☔ - "Talk about/give a synopsis for a fic you'll probably never write"

Admittedly, there are a lot of those just because I have so many brainworms all the time but one of the concepts I've recently accepted will just remain a warm memory to go back to when I'm feeling down is a 5+1 fic with Ares and Artemis discovering, raising and releasing the Stymphalian Birds! I'm really interested in Ares and Artemis' entanglements and the many things attributed to them both and the Stymphalian Birds have always been cool (to me) due to their nature + their habitat as swamp dwellers! The idea of Ares having found (or created!!) these little demon chickies and panicking because they ate something they weren't supposed to so he panics and brings them down to Artemis who looks at him and his jar of chirping baby birds then metaphorically slams the door in his face gives me immense joy. Ares, of course, bugs her until she agrees to help him keep them fed which leads to Artemis teaching how to hunt, Ares teaching her a thing or two about Olympian politics and a very big brood of birds between them both! Very cute, but it'll probably remain in the drafts.
