stellaron hunters found family (i)
Blade thinks to himself for a moment, in truth he has an inkling about the so-called “power” and it’s origin, but keeps it to himself for the present. For now, he contents himself with watching Silver Wolf and Kafka argue. It’s a rather one-sided affair but entertaining to watch nonetheless.
Sam returns from a mission later and Blade gets the honour to witness one of the duo’s legendary video game duels. It’s fun to watch and Kafka joins him on the couch as the Silver Wolf and Sam battle it out. Sometime, when it’s late in the night and Silver Wolf has finally dozed off, Kafka puts on a movie. It’s an action packed one, with horrid flashing lights and cinematics that has Sam worked up to the nines.
“That’s not how it works in real life.” He grumbles, pointing at a rather risqué interrogation, “movies aren’t made the same anymore,” he adds unhappily when the following escape scene ends with the lead actor bursting out through a window.
“Oh well, it’s value is in entertainment. Realism is secondary,” Kafka says delicately, she’s examining her nails carefully though Blade isn’t sure how she is given the dim lighting of the room.
He hasn’t been paying a lot of attention to the movie, more preoccupied with not moving so Silver Wolf doesn’t wake up since Kafka always insists he be a human pillow.
“You’re just comfortable Bladie, don’t overthink it,” she once said to him after a mission where she had insisted on sleeping on his shoulder.
Even now, she’s leaning against him on the couch, legs thrown over to the other end of the sofa. Silver Wolf is resting against his other side, snoring lightly, somehow oblivious to the noise and explosions of the movie. It’s not like they try to turn the volume down either. She’s also got his coat draped over her lopsidedly like a blanket. No one had wanted to get a blanket when asked and naturally it just happened to be the day when all their couch covers were in the wash.
So Blade sacrifices warmth. Not that he runs cold, it’s a strange juxtaposition, because the heart beating in his chest is certainly cold, but his body itself still runs hot. Warmer than the average human for some strange reason. Perhaps he’s simply keeping the furnace fire he can no longer use in his body instead.
It seems it comes in handy, as Kafka and Silver Wolf always use him as a pillow. Even Elio, for all his prissy, posh cat ways, isn't immune. Maybe Sam is the only one who doesn’t see Blade as a portable heater…then again, Sam is self-sufficient, relying on machinery alone to accomplish tasks.
Speaking of Sam, he’s sitting on the ottoman. Blade isn’t too sure why, there’s space on the couch – there was a reason they had needed to upgrade it several times in the past, but when he sees Elio stalk into the room from the hallway, he thinks he knows, especially when cat-Elio jumps onto Sam’s lap to get scratches.
The night wears on and soon, not one but two people are fast asleep on each of Blade’s sides. He’s pretty sure Kafka is faking it, but knows very well that Silver Wolf is dead to the world. Not even a hard shake would make her wake up. The ending credits of the movie are rolling on the screen and still, neither have woken up.
Blade gestures at Sam, who stands up and takes Silver Wolf back to her room, coat and everything. Elio is perched on his broad shoulders, amber eyes gleaming as they walk away. Thankfully, Silver Wolf sleeps deeply. Blade supposes it’s one of her many strengths, especially since she is still a child.
Left alone with Kafka, Blade thinks that it really would be rude to leave her on the couch, even with a blanket and pillow. Well he doesn’t have a coat to give her and the one Kafka wears is much too small for the night so he takes her back to her room. He makes sure to remove her sunglasses, pistol(s), jacket and katana.
The door is carefully shut, done in a way that wouldn’t make a noise and wake Kafka up. They share a trait there, that they are both light sleepers. With Kafka and Silver Wolf secured, Blade begins the trek back to his own room. It’s dark in the hallways, but occasionally, a window opening into the starry seas appears.

hiiii friend (it’s birdie shhh didn’t want to send on my main blog) i fully support avoiding wips as i am doing the same so here is my question:
what, if you have any, are some of your favorite desert duo headcanons? can be scar or grian individually or them together
HIII BIRDIE sorry one of the wips is said yours related sigh . we're in this nightmare blunt rotation together
anyway. im gonna answer this in both for general and my WTLT!verse because theyre kinda different LOL sorry this gets long
general hcs 1) scar is a... very practical guy i would say. despite his strength lies in his words he would still favour showing care and affection. yknow stuff like cutting fruits for someone without asking. hes littered with small fleeting gestures and only someone who knows him well enough like grian could pick up on them 2) personally i always see grian as the loud annoying friend/partner/whatever you wanna call it. sure he sometimes uses it as an excuse to repress things he doesnt wanna talk about (this is where scar would usually coax him out of it) but his loudness can be really handy at times when an uneasy awkwardness fall between them. ALTHOUGH this doesnt mean grian won't 'shut down' when the situation arises (because i like quiet grian too) 3) not sure how to fit in one small paragraph about my dynamic hc for them but i can say with full conviction grian and scar would stick fruit labels onto each other's forehead when grocery shopping to piss the other off. hope this helps 😁😁
where the light touches hcs: 1) i really really like the hc that scar is so unphased by everything because hes jaded like that (whether a placid facade or no) like oh suddenly he managed to sign himself up for a death game. oh heres an immortal who wounded up in his path. oh suddenly he needs to start manipulating people to win. and hes like ok 👍 (he was first runner up in 3rd life for a reason) 2) for grian i like that hes kinda cunning in his own way. like yes hes not to full power with his watcher abilities stripped away and he can be kinda weak at times, but then he uses this front to trick people and when their guards are let down and turns the battle's tide with it. literally a small guy who packs a punch to those who underestimate him 3) for the both of them, my hc will always be that they have no choice but to trust each other wholeheartedly. because one small falter can cause their faction to fall and the only way they succeeded is because they dont second guess every time when the other will put a knife behind their back. sure this is not a popular hc but in 3rd life grian constantly stood by scar's side so. also its my storyverse and i get to pick the dynamics!!!!
#sorry i yapped#me when i dont play around with desertduo.....#have fun reading my nonsense LMAOO 😭😭😭#邮箱

I am babysitting my nephew at the moment SOooOOO. My favorite redacted boys babysitting (i’m so bored plz help)
Guy🍕
This weekend‘s gift is up first 
He gives me older brother’s best friend energy.
He’s the guy(literally) that gives the kid a controller that’s not plugged in, so they feel included.
He comes over and brings a pizza and candy for the kids (and him. be honest)
he’ll make up some ridiculous elaborate game that the kids love.
His silly personality helps when a kid is crying or upset 
He would never volunteer to babysit, but if you ask him, he’ll say yes.
Overall guy is a very trustworthy babysitter 
David🐺
He’s the alpha he’s used to dealing with childish adults, so you’d think children would be a piece of cake.
kids are scared of him, Babies love him, toddlers are his worst enemy.
They know no rules 
They know no weakness 
They smell fear 
Asher and Angel find it hilarious. Because Asher knows how secretly terrified David is of toddlers. Angel just finds it funny. 
Overall, yes, you can trust your alpha with your children BUT  it will take some emotional sacrifice on his part 
Asher🐾 
Asher can handle kids in a controlled environment. Like he can hang out with the children of the pack. but he starts getting awkward after too long. 
“BaAaAbe one of them started crying…. whatdoIdooo!”
“is he hungry?,thirsty? What does it want?!”
 it slowly morphs into chaos as the night progresses 
Overall, Asher definitely isn’t the first choice for a babysitter but as long as he has babe’s assistance, he’s definitely not the last
Milo💥
This man. He would be a good dad. 
He would be a great babysitter, amazing……..He would be a really good dad. Our feisty werewolf Boi loves kids. 
“Give um here ash…hey little buddy~….🎶hmmm🎵HmmM🎶mmmhmmm🎵” *Lullaby continues*
(Ima cry I love him so much)
“OH. I know me and sweetheart’s kid would kick your kids ASS ASH!” (this happened)
Sweetheart didn’t even know he was good with kids until their first solstice together. And seeing him with the pack kids. 
Overall, 100% Milo is the first to go to for a babysitter 
Caelum🍪 & Gavin😈
I’m pairing these two together because it would be a not great idea… to leave caelum unsupervised with a small child. they will either achieve world domination OR caelum will end up having a breakdown because of the roller coaster that is child emotions.
Gavin is there to achieve balance 
Caelum is the entertainer. Gavin is the caretaker. 
“Ok buddy. Can you handle the little one well, I make their bottle?”
“Yup! Yup! You got it Gav!”
*Proceeds to play patty cake for 20 minutes*
Both the little one and caelum end up, falling asleep by the end of the night.
Yes, overall awesome babysitting duo 
Sam
Sam was my first vampire boi I listened to  so when he referred to the newly turned vamps as “newborns”
…….I thought he was a Dilf vampire……
That being said, I think Sam would be really good with kids. He’s very patient very soft and very calm…. and very tolerant. ALSO. Kids are very accident prone. Sam being good at healing will come in handy. 
: take them on car rides to get them to sleep 
: I feel like the little ones would be fascinated by his fangs
: Darlin comes home and he’s just got a baby asleep on his chest 
he’s not the first one you’d think of one, thinking of a babysitter, but he knows what he’s doing 
Forgive me if these are stupid, I am pretty tired and my glasses are. Say it with me 👏STILL BROKEN👏

Theme 27: 🫦 Smokey Shamey 🫦
I hope @gallacrafts will indulge my curveball take on the Smokey Shamey theme, as I rock up with some: Smokey Eye Make Up Looks
DEBBIE
To me Debbie will always be the little girl who never got that princess party she dreamt of, hence a pink smokey cat-eye, finished with pink glitter highlights.
MANDY
I am leaning into Season 6 Mandy, with a classic black liquid liner cat-eye and a matt grey smokey eyeshadow. Understated and classy, while still being playful and sexy.
KEVIN
There is nothing more durable than a smokey eye in brown, blended out to skin colour - one of my favourite make ups for a rainy day at the farm, because it will still look pretty decent by the end. Solid and dependable, just like Kevin!
IAN
I’m normally a big fan of contrast colours, but if you’re a redhead with pretty green eyes then you lean into that green as hard as you can!! We’ve got two shades of green (light on the lid, dark in the crease), blended out into a shimmery gold, green eyeliner on the lower lid, and black eyeliner & mascara on the upper.
MICKEY
And finally we have the OG black kohl smokey eye - perfect for our little trash panda! You want your black eyeshadow to be highly pigmented, and don’t be afraid to get a bit messy with it. You’re a Milkovich, not a Chanel model! On top of the black eyeshadow we have some black glitter, for depth. And of course it wouldn’t be a Mickey look without some characterful brows and chewed pink lips!!
And then of course post Season 4 we get Mickey ‘I Just Want Everyone Here To Know I’m Fucking Gay’ Milkovich, the bravest little thug muffin on the South Side, deserving a special rainbow smokey eye look in his honour!
Some make up ramblings behind the cut, for anyone interested :)
I get most of my make up from the cheap counter at whatever pharmacy I'm in - teen brands are great for cheap yet decent quality items! However I do have some preference in terms of performance for certain things. I love my EcoTools make up brushes. You can pick up a pack of 5 brushes for a tenner, but if you can find the set of 2 double headed brushes - Eye Enhancing Duo Brush Set - you've got all you need for a smokey eye look in two handy brushes! I've been using mine for years with no bristle loss or decrease in quality. Very very happy with those! Eyeshadow - I'm a slut for a MAC pallet. They're not all as good as each other, and occasionally you get an eyeshadow that barely leaves any pigment on your skin and it's infuriating! But 80% of their colours are great. And you can buy colours individually on their website / at a MAC make up counter, and then you can fit them into a non branded make up pallet you pick up at amazon or your local pharmacy for a couple of quid, allowing you to put together you're perfect personal pallet! Barry M does little pots of loose pigment in ALL the colours of the rainbow, called Dazzle Dust, and they are amazing!! Please do take a few days of experimenting if you are not used to working with loose pigment, as it can get MESSY lol A good trick is to go heavy on powder foundation under your eye prior to starting your eye make up, so any loose pigment catches on a layer of powder that you can then just brush off with a big powder brush.
I also have little pots of glitter (purchased from a craft store) in all the colours of the rainbow and a small bottle of stage make up adhesive. You will find there's a million different glitter adhesive gels and fix it sprays, some of them may be amazing, however many of them are going to work the exact same way as a simple application of some vaseline would. Depending on the effect I want I either use a small paint brush to very precisely apply glue and glitter pieces (glitter eyeliner, cut brows with glitter lines, individual glitter dots), or alternatively I use a lip gloss or similar sticky clear substance and sprinkle the glitter (for glitter blush, glitter temples etc.)
I have bought many a mascara promising many a thing (longer, thicker, fuller, rounder, magic in some way or other) and honestly, I have never been able to tell the difference between their performances. As long as it doesn't clump and go tacky after a week of use, it's fine by me.
For eyeliners - I have a few choice colours in MAC, but for the essentials I love essence cosmetics, which are one of the teen brands I mentioned above. Their liquid liner pens (24ever ink liner for example) are some of the best I've ever used, and they're like £2.50 each. Otherwise, I like eye pencils you can sharpen for the exact precision I desire, not the waxy sticks inside a plastic case that you operate like a mechanical pencil. Those are a big no no.
Okay, that's all I can think of on the fly.
Please add your favourite make up brands and tips and tricks in the comments! I love to learn from other people!

There Are Monsters Nearby [Chapter 5]
🏜 Pairing: Grian/Scar
🧟♂️ Tags: zombie AU, zombie apocalypse, lovers to exes, slow burn, eventual reconciliation
📖 Summary: The day after Scar breaks up with Grian, the dead come back to life.
Or: Desert Duo’s desert road trip. 🚗💨
Chapter 5 - With fuel getting scarce, Scar and Grian are faced with the reality of having to leave a beloved part of their lives behind.
📝 Words: 5,594
🔗 Link: Read Chapter 5 on AO3
—
“I think we should have a funeral,” Scar announces. “If we have to say goodbye to her, we should pay our respects.”
He’s prepared for a heavy sigh and a roll of the eyes.
Instead, he’s met with silence. When he turns to look, Grian is staring at him with a sort of vulnerable tenderness in his eyes. The expression of someone who’s being given something that means a lot to them.
Scar tries not to let it get to him.
“Yeah. I… I like the sound of that,” Grian says at last, nodding.
The process of unpacking the car is a tedious one, but Scar’s earlier sorting makes it easier to decide what to keep, at least. With no clothes and barely any survival supplies, their key focus is on portioning out the food and deciding what’s going to get left behind. They’d pulled backpacks out of a camper van they’d found tipped over at the side of the highway—smeared in blood but with no sign of any bodies—hundreds of miles ago, and those come in handy now, packed full with as much as they can manage.
Without making a big deal about it, Grian ends up hefting the heavier of the two bags onto his shoulders, adjusting the straps so that they hug his body and don’t droop, settling the weight properly on his hips so that he’ll be able to walk without feeling overburdened. He grabs the axe too, and Scar doesn’t stop him, too busy setting the car in neutral and making his own final preparations. When Scar steps back, he takes a good long look at Grian, who’s staring at his car, visibly upset, the reality of having to leave it behind clear on his face.
“She was a good car,” Scar says as he straightens up, taking a deep breath and speaking from his chest. He sounds as sombre as he does formal, speaking just as he would at a real funeral. “It may be true that I only knew Ariana for a few years—I met her one stormy night, when she and Grian gave me a ride home rather than forcing me to walk in the rain—but I cared for her all the same. She was truly up for anything, be it a late-night drive or a weekend adventure. And I’ll never forget the smell of her Sahara Rift air freshener, whatever that label means. She always got us where we needed to go… except right now, of course, what with her empty gas tank and all.”
—
It’s Friday and we're here with another chapter of our zombie au Scarian fic! Scar makes a life choice, and- tbh- good for him!
You can read the whole story thus-far linked below!
You may not rest now, There Are Monsters Nearby (on ao3!)

Do you think it’s possible for someone to get through wizard101 without buying crowns at all?
For specifics, my brother and I are going to play as a death/storm duo. We haven’t touched the game since we were 10 and didn’t get past Avalon.
absolutely! i mean - you'll have to buy membership. but you dont have to spend a dime on crowns!
gear from packs is really only relevant for people who do like, super high ranking pvp. bleeding edge meta strategies and the like
iirc, you can get the deer knight spell from packs? but that's such a crapshoot luck wise that whomever is playing the death wizard is much better off just crafting it. (and it's not a necessary spell either, it's just handy to have a lower pip aoe)
edit: BELAY the bit about deer knight!! check the notes-- you can get deer knight from a skeleton key boss!

As the brightest orb in the sky was now leaning closer to the far horizon of Saitama city, the vast sky above the town was dyed in such enigmatic shades of pink, welcoming the special moment of a certain beloved butterfly mama of D.R.B. since today was apparently her birthday. And even if most of the trees here and there hadn’t yet changed their colors, it still couldn’t deny the fact that the new season after the summer gone had already begun…
Once along with plenty of thoughtful gifts being blessed to Miyuki residence, there was a parcel from a certain place far, faraway from Saitama lying still inside of the house’s mailbox.
Inside of it were a tidy roll of pink scarf which its rim decorated with flowery crochets internationally hand-made to resemble the cute and dainty cosmos flowers or the so-called “ 秋桜 ” (akizakura)’ of autumn.
And the scarf wasn’t not the only gift, there was also a pink paper bag packed with breads cutely stuffed with sweet cream and some fruities arranging after a certain cartoon character from ghibli movies
Looking on the side, there was a card attached along with the message written as such;
“To Miyuki-san of Saitama
First of all, hello Miyuki-san and let me wish you a happy birthday with some presents and regards from my division! And actually, my sister’s birthday is coincidentally on the same day as you too haha… But well, looks like the weather has turned a bit colder since it will soon be delving into the midst of autumn, doesn’t it? So, I think it would be great to keep our home warm and comfy during this period. Oh, and please don’t forget to take care of yourself as well! We hope you and your family will have a good time onwards in this year.
Sincerely,
Yuuya Kanata, Nara Division.”
“Oh nice, Yuuya and his team come up with some pretty cool gifts.” Kureha complimented as she sat on the table in the kitchen watching her mother prepare Yoshiko’s lunch for tomorrow, the brunette turned to her oldest daughter. “Oh, is he a friend of yours?”
“Not really, but I have heard of him, he was pretty popular at school and we only said hi to each other a few times before he graduated high school.” Kureha explained as she brought the bread rolls over to the older woman, earning a thankful smile in response.
“Well, that was kind of him, the weather is getting a bit more chilly so the scarf is going to come in handy and this bread looks so cute…hm…” After contemplating on it, Sayaka took one of the pieces and carefully placed it in Yoshiko’s lunch box, smiling in satisfaction, she wrapped the box up in a decorated cloth and placed it in the fridge for later, grabbing the plate with the remaining bread, she took another one for herself before handing out the last one towards Kureha silently asking if she wanted some. The artist looked at the plate for a second before shrugging and taking the last piece, the mother and daughter duo shared a smile and a light moment as they enjoyed each other’s company and feasted on some sweet treats.
Thank you for the gift!

Oddworld: Conar’s Ambition, Chapter 13, Draft 1, Part 14
Any more detail was lost when two Mudokons appeared from thin air, aiming bright blue shooters at the duo. They had massive feathers on their elbows, as well as one vibrant plume on their heads.
“Halt,” said the one on the left. It wasn’t strictly necessary with their masked glares and the weapons pointed at the two foreigners, but it was to be expected.
Conar nodded. He was outranked, for sure. He was able to keep Chairman from snarling with a few gentle scratches, but the rest of the pack was shifting, some letting out warning growls.
“Doubt you can put those in the pens,” the other guard remarked matter-of-factly. “They’d scare the Elums.”
“Come on,” said Slim, ignoring the pecking order, “We just need a place to stay. I know they’ll behave, but if you want, we could find someplace outside to store them…”
“And your pet?” asked one of the guards, pointing right at Conar.
“’Ey! I’m nobody’s pet—”
“Oh, lookit that, it talks!”
Conar tensed as the two laughed, but Slim’s hand on the small of his back reminded him of the situation, and he settled for a grumble and glare at those wooden masks.
“My friend here knows how to tame Slogs,” Slim said. “Surely that could come in handy?”
“Most of their kind know better than to come here at all!” exclaimed a guard, bringing his bow closer to Conar’s temple. The two stared at each other, both ready for action at any moment.

Patrol about Town
who: Zaya & Devrim @inlethargics where: Streets of New York where the real danger is falling for Zaya & Devrim and Iconic duo when: 4th January, Daytime
Despite it being the freaking middle of Winter, Agent Flare knew by now to always pack a pair of sunglasses with her. One, they made her look more badass. Two, there was nothing more entertaining than watching other cower away from her unable to read her expression from behind the shades. And three, they always came handy during patrol mission. Partly from the paparazzi who were more brutal than before with the buzz around Cerb Corp. Whatever, Agent Flare still had a fucking job to do and she was going to do it.
Even if that mane she would be stuck on routine Patrol which slowly, slowly more frequent. At least she was out of office away from all the other Agents who were walking on eggshells or having their doubts. It was really starting to get on her fucking nerves. Rumors fly. Speculations are made. The media was feasting on it. Nothing was proven. Don't like it. Leave. Simple. Or grit your teeth and solider on. Wasn't that hard to tell the option Agent Flare has chosen.
Most the patrols had been a drag especially the Agents she was paired with were constant headaches. Not in her 2024. So the patrols with those agents were walks in silence. Until they finally got the pair up right. Agent Ashina. An actual smile on the face when she saw their name pop up. This Patrol was going to be actually bearable with a much needed catch up.
Shoving her hands deeper in her pockets,"You ready?"
