phone 👀👀👀

(i'm looking at you like this rn)

I think I know why 🤣

Logan stares at him for a moment, eyes flicking back over to Oscar's phone in the corner. A smirk slowly creeps onto his face. Oscar feels a sense of dread sweep over him.

send me a word in a wip

🏆 for Ledo!

[OC Memory Prompts: 🏆 —A proud memory.]

The setting sun lit the room from tall pair of windows, beams of warm light washing over the dresser against the opposite wall where a small, dragon-like automaton rested, idle and almost seeming to be asleep. At the corner of the dresser, Ledo stood in front of a mirror, making sure that everything she was going to wearing was as perfect as she could make it. Her hair was pulled back into a large, tidy braid, though a few stubborn curls refused to stay where she wanted them. Her usual bronze prosthetic arm was put aside and she was instead using a bright, new silver-brushed one specifically commissioned for this exact occasion. Subtle filigree caught the evening light whenever it turned. Unfortunately, there was little she could do about the scars that marred her face, and it made them both seem so out of place when that was all she felt that others would focus on when they looked at her.

But the most important thing she was checking and double-checking was her new uniform, which she was almost constantly adjusting, despite the fact it had been tailored to her. The last thing she wanted was for there to be anything out of place when she knew that she was going to be scrutinized by some of the most powerful members of the Twalan navy in less than a couple of hours. Ledo looked over her reflection, gaze falling on the patches newly sewn into the shoulders: the emblem of a Sergeant Engineer. She tried to swallow the lump in her throat, her eyes instead shifting toward the painting that hung on the wall over the dresser, the figures of a tiefling couple and child seeming to stare directly at her.

A gentle knock on the open doorframe brought her out of her thoughts and seemed to also alert the automaton, whose head quickly shot up to see what had interrupted its rest. Ledo turned to look in the direction of the sound and saw the familiar face of her uncle, Halthor, as the older tiefling stepped into the room. "Are you about ready, Sergeant?" He asked, in an almost bemused tone. He was also in his own uniform, though it was of an older style that was used before his retirement. "I know I may tend to be a little late to things these days, but I can blame my age. Can't say the same for you, though. Is everything alright?"

"Yes, I'm… fine," she responded in a low voice, turning back to the mirror to try and smooth down any wrinkles in her coat. "Just trying to make sure I haven't missed anything."

Her uncle gave a light huff, almost chuckling under his breath, unconvinced. Instead, he moved over to join Ledo, a hand reaching out to pet the small automaton as he did so. There was a brief moment where neither said anything, where only the soft whirring of gears could be heard. Halthor broke the silence as he looked over her worried expression in the mirror. "Well, I for one think you look exactly like a young, successful officer should," he mused. A smile stretched across his face, the wrinkles around his eyes deepening as he did so.

Ledo met his gaze in the mirror, and she gave him a soft smile in return before taking a slow, steadying breath. "Thank you. I guess I am just… nervous. Captain Ralon made a comment the other day when I visited the docks that he was surprised at how quickly I was rising through the ranks, and that some others might be a bit… jealous."

"Hmph. Ralon means well, and there may be some truth to that, but you are certainly not the first to reach sergeant this fast. Not even close." Halthor gave Ledo a solid pat on her good shoulder, "A new promotion and you've been chosen to be among the first on the crew of the fleet's newest ship. This event is the admiral's way of celebrating those who have earned honors just like that. The last thing I want you to think is that you did not deserve this, fighting horn and nail every step of the way. You have every right to be proud of yourself for at least this one night."

At that, Ledo did actually chuckle, her smile widening. "Aye, and I have to spend it rubbing elbows and putting on a damn good show."

Halthor shrugged in response, starting to step away. "Navy politics, about as bad as house politics." As he passed by the dresser on his way to the door, he paused and glanced over at the painting. "And another thing. Your father would be immensely proud of what you have accomplished. Of that I have no doubt. And I also know they would both want you to enjoy tonight."

Ledo watched as he left the room, her posture noticeably more relaxed. She looked back at the painting as well, her eyes meeting the unmoving gaze of her father before she reached up to gently hold the signet ring she wore as a necklace. When she spoke again, it was in a whisper that only the ghosts of the past could hear.

"If only you were here to see it."

Hiii I brought pie!

Sid: Pie? That'll be a great change from cupcakes! Thank you so much! I'll get to figuring out who might like it the most.

E.V.: You don't know what you've done. You've fed one of her sugar tirades.

Sid: This is great timing, cuz a bunch of the soldiers have been grumpier than usual. And tired too. Once or twice they were even too tired to try and attack me.

Next

For the mix and match ask game 6d?

I wrote a one shot that is in my compilation fic The Fosters Musing called Nightmares about Lena having night terrors after Stef almost dies from a gunshot. I don’t write a lot of angsty stuff so not a lot to choose from and it was way at the beginning of when I started writing them. But this description of the nightmare she has is pretty good:

And there was this one. Where Stef's scar started to bleed and she would get it to stop bleeding just to have another start bleeding. Every time one was under control more started and eventually there were too many and Lena would watch her bleed to death, unable to do anything to stop it.

Hi it's just to let you know that the official romanization of Revaan's name is Raverne ! Also they have romanized Baul's name to Baur !

Twst coming back at us again with the least expected romanization! thank you everybody (oh god my inbox) (no it's great, I literally asked for this and the reactions have been INCREDIBLE, thank you all!)

I do like Raverne though, I think it's got a nice fancy sound to it! (I had kinda suspected it was going to be an R instead of an L, so the fact that it's SO close to Laverne except for that is hilarious to me personally.) and Dragoneye Duke is honestly probably the best translation for his title, I wasn't envying the localizers that one. :') Baur instead of Baul I was NOT expecting, but in retrospect I think his name's supposed to be a reference to the Bauru crocodile, so that actually makes way more sense!

someone else also said Meleanor has become Maleanor, which is the REALLY weird one to me, because I was so surprised it was written as Mel instead of Mal in the first place?! oh god no I can't decide which one I like better. 😭 (I wonder if they might change it to Mal...they have made romanization changes before) (like I remember House of Distraction being corrected to House of Destruction in Playful Land) (I did check and she's still Mel for now, but I dunno, they might Mal her up and some point and save me from having to make a decision about which one to use) (HECK I CAN'T DECIDE)

uhhhh thank you for letting me ramble about anime names, let's just say MONOGRAMMED SWEATERS FOR EVERYONE

Welcome. It's nice to have you here. I'm so glad you could come. This is going to be such an exciting day. I hope you enjoy it. I think you will.

I think my favourite headcanon that I have is that zag loves I’m gonna claw out your eyes (and drown you to death) and mel loves hymn to zagreus, and sometimes they annoy each other by trying to sing their respective songs louder than the other

Thank you so much to @ekingston for taking my commission for this scene from The Parallel Effect, and creating this fantastic piece of art!!! ❤️💙❤️

So…. those arcane photos weren’t supposed to be officially released and uploaded to websites for purchase and they got taken down sometime today. The person posted an announcement on twitter an hour or so ago that they made a mistake uploading it to the website and their store🫡

Out of the entire cast, who do you think would rock a hat the most? :o

Diavolo is not a valid option because of his gravity defying hat btw

HIII MELODYYY fancy seeing you here haha long time no see :D

so hear me out. i'd say lucifer BECAUSE he deserves a fun accessory! but seriously im sure he'd have to head down to the human world pretty often to get supplies for mc right, i feel like he'd probably get sunburnt so easily so a nice wide hat would really help! i kinda wanna make it yellow cause that would be EXTRA fun, luci deserves some fun in his life it can be a little pointy to match his personality and bring back some of the fun so there isnt too much, and the strip of black ribbon really ties it into his outfits

so maybe something like this? what do you think?

[melit0n]

Since you guys liked the other one so much, I present more crypid trail cam Vessel (+ iii this time) photos!

(@fields-of-elation thought these could be of use to you <3)
