the mourn watch background gives you such a GIFT in having other characters notice and call out on-screen that rook code switches like a motherfucker. the whiplash of hearing my snarky 'heeey I'm just a little guy! :>' funnyman rook speak the heightened ritualized phrases of the mourn watch with perfect seriousness and gravity completely naturally and/or break into an academic tone that can keep up with emmrich at the drop of a hat never stops giving me such endless delight. truly their real mind is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside some hideous mourn watch casual wear
#that last one was just for comedic purposes rye would NEVER wear the mourn watch casual wear willingly#he hated the new livery so much he hoarded every pair of the older watcher robes he could hunt down so they'd tide him over#in the hopes that the next uniform design would be less awful. he is a fancyboy at heart. he should be wearing so many earrings#dragon age#dragon age: the veilguard#dragon age: the veilguard spoilers#dragon age spoilers#oc: Ellaryen Ingellvar#A Watcher's work is never done#rye's whole deal is half built on the feeling of 'we've had a lot of fun here today folks. but at the end of the day I have given my oath#and I mean to fulfil it. so either help me do that or get out of my fucking way' that sort of naturally rises out of this contrast#and everyone who has for a moment doubted his complete seriousness and sincerity about it so far has ended up much deeper#than six feet under by the end of it all haha#I've found I've actually been able to build a really good sense of character here (with some reloading to see different options#to be sure lol I am a control freak) -- mixing in a stoic response in certain situations for example can inform so much with so little#and the contrast works out to be so much greater.#just this sense of a layer of levity and awkwardness on top of an immense and unflinching seriousness#that sometimes shines through. it's uh. it's been really good for me

Org XIII - Reactions to S/O Turning Into a Mouse
Suggested by: @hexnicki Here’s the original ask. These turned out to be a lot longer than I expected LOL so I put them under the Keep Reading! Consider it an apology for taking so long to put this one out!
SHOUTOUT TO @4ddictwithapencil FOR BEING A BABE AND HELPING ME WITH THIS ONE
Xemnas
You wouldn’t even be near Xemnas when it happens. Someone like Demyx, Axel, or Roxas may have been responsible, but you’re absolutely terrified one of them will do something equally stupid like squash you under their feet when they aren’t paying attention. You escape as they’re arguing over what to do with you and immediately head out to find Xemnas.
The door to his office is closed, so you slip under the crack of the frame to try and get his attention. He’s standing at the window and turns when he hears your hysterical squeaking and his hand glitters for a moment - as if he’s going to zap you completely out of existence - before he freezes at the sound of footsteps thundering down the hallway. Roxas, Demyx, and Axel burst into the room and freeze, and you immediately skitter towards Xemnas’ shoes to climb up his coat to rest on his shoulder.
He glances at you, then back at the other members with their panicked faces, then scowls. “What did you do?” Obviously he isn’t hysterically freaking out, but he’s literally at a loss of what to do. And when he realizes it’s you, you really don’t want to know what the punishment for the other organization members is going to be.
It takes a while to get you back to normal, though, and you spend a lot of the time on Xemnas’ shoulder. He’ll rub between your ears with his finger and and watch as you scurry across the arm of his chair in Where Nothing Gathers, completely distracting him from whatever he should actually be paying attention to.
Xigbar
Such a little shit tbh. Doesn’t know how it happened and doesn’t care, just thinks it’s one of the funniest things he’s ever seen in his entire life. He constantly gives you shit about being a mouse now and can’t get over how adorable you are. “Why can’t you look this cute every day?” and he gets a bite on his finger for that one.
Actually goes so far as to buy his S/O a little hamster ball. Gets several scratches and bites when trying to put S/O in the ball, but it’s totally worth it because of the utter rage compacted on such a little face. Spends literally hours with a huge bucket of popcorn watching you roll around the floor of his room and through the halls of the castle.
The other Organization Members are super amused and some even watch you with him. “Uh, Xigbar, what are you doing and why do you have a mouse?” “That’s Y/N.” “That’s Y/N?” “Yes.” “Holy shit, that’s adorable.”
Xigbar is a rat man so it’s fitting amiright babes
Xaldin
When the others bring you to him, he’s super confused. He looks down at the mouse in his hand as you look up at him, then he looks back at the other members and is like “the fuck am i supposed to do with this? Is this your way of telling me we have a rodent problem in the castle?” “No, err.... that’s Y/N.” “What? No it’s not.” “Yes it is. We accidentally turned her into a mouse but it’s okay because we’re already working on a way to turn her back if you just don’t mind watching her for a bit okay thanks bye!” Then they all immediately leave and Xaldin is left alone with you.
Doesn’t really have any idea what he’s supposed to do with you. He was going to go have a workout or get some practice in with his powers but he can’t do that now that he has to take care of you!!! He barely wants to touch you because 1) he lowkey doesn’t really like mice and 2) he really doesn’t want to accidentally hurt you
Vexen
Listen. Vexen is so used to dealing with mice. Mice are his go-to creatures for experiments, so he has to make sure he doesn’t get you mixed up with mice that he uses for tests and things like that. You like to sit on his desk and watch him work sometimes!!!
You know how programmers will sometimes have rubber ducks that sit on their desks where they talk through their code to find any mistakes?? That’s you to Vexen. He’ll talk to you about his experiments and even if you can’t respond or give feedback, it’s a great way for him to go through his work and find errors or mistakes that can be quickly fixed.
Lexaeus
You’re barely bigger than his finger so he is absolutely terrified that he’ll accidentally hurt you. He thinks you’re absolutely adorable, though, and tries to help you get comfortable or get back to normal as best as he can.
Makes you a little bed out of a tissue box, some cotton, and some spare scraps of fabric. He keeps it on the side of his bed and makes sure that you’re all tucked in before he even thinks about going to sleep.
Zexion
Zexion thinks that you! are! so! cute! He’s so curious because his scientist brain immediately wants to do some sort of experiment on you, but he also doesn’t want to do anything that would hurt you.
Reads all he can about mice and their behaviors. Has no idea if the usual diet for mice or mouse behaviors and actions will hold over onto you because you aren’t an actual mouse, but he likes to be prepared.
Feels like he has his very own pet and it’s kind of cool. Will not actually let anyone else near you because he’s afraid they’ll hurt you or take you away or do something equally stupid like put you in a tiny costume. Imagine them putting you in an itty bitty organization cloak.
Saix
One of Vexen’s experiments had backfired and you suffer the consequences for it. Saix walks into the lab expecting to give out assignments and accidentally walks in on Vexen and Zexion arguing over what to do with you. “Why are you arguing about a mouse?” Um... and Zexion and Vexen exchange glances because neither of them want to be the one to break it to Saix that the mouse is his S/O and get their asses kicked. Zexion, who literally had nothing to do with it, shouts, “It’s Vexen’s fault,” and bolts out of the room.
You look adorable but he’s too manly to admit it out loud. Wants to protect you as much as humanly possible so he keeps you either i his pocket or somewhere on his person at all times. You’ll sit on his shoulder and glare at the other organization members as he hands out mission briefings in the Grey Area. Everyone wants to say something about how the usually stoic Saix looks less than intimidating with a mouse on his shoulder but no one has the guts to say it.
Axel
Thinks you’re crazy when you tell him that you can shape shift and literally thinks he’s going insane when you shrink down to a few inches tall. He’s super afraid to step on you, so he picks you up and lets you crawl up his arm to rest on his shoulder.
Burying yourself in his long hair and knotting it up when you try to make a little bed in the soft locks. Hanging on to his hair and controlling him to make him do stupid stuff similarly to a certain Little Chef
He asks you to change into a mouse all the time tbh. “Y/N. hey Y/N. Do the thing. Please do the thing, i’m begging you.” “Axel, it’s 3 in the morning, i’m trying to sleep.” “But, babe”
Demyx
You’re already the most precious thing in the world to him but now it’s like??? Multiplied by a thousand. Holds you up directly in front of his face because you are precious and he needs all of you in his vision. You have definitely bitten him on the nose more than once because of this.
Will carry you around and unashamedly make everyone look at how cute you are. “LOOK AT MY BABE, SHE’S SO CUTE”
Luxord
You have the power to shape-shift, but it only really works for things that are about/near to your natural size? Like a cougar or a baby elephant or something, and he ends up making a bet with you that you can’t turn into something super tiny, like a mouse. “Fuck you, Luxord, this is one bet you can’t win because i’m going to do it.” And you do, but it doesn’t work out the way you want it to.
Luxord sees you turn into this teeny tiny mouse and sighs. “Okay, I’ll concede. You win this one. Go ahead and turn yourself back.” But then... you don’t. “Y/N?” And then he just grins because he realizes, “Oh, my God, you can’t turn yourself back. You’re too small and you’re stuck like that.” And there’s just a bunch of furious, outraged squeaking that blares throughout the room.
Luxord will absolutely 100% have a tea party with the mouse.
Marluxia
Marluxia has always had a connection to nature and wildlife, so he is PREPARED for this. He definitely takes good care of you and speaks softly to you and lets you know that everything is going to be okay. Not sure if you’ll eat mouse food or human food so he feeds you some herbs and plants that could be for both. Would definitely be keeping a strict eye on you until someone finds a way to turn you back to normal.
Would let you run in his garden and stay among the flowers like a little field mouse!!! He thinks it’s so cute when you sit under a flower and it looks like you’re wearing the petals as a hat.
Larxene
Does not like mice. At all. She knows that it’s you, but mice give her the creeps and she will avoid you as much as she can until you turn back to normal. She’s not very affectionate, but any affection she had for you is on the fence right now because mice kind of... creep her out? It’s one of the only things in the world that can send a shiver up her spine.
Still stays away from you for a while even after you turn back to normal. Just the idea that you were a mouse only a few hours ago just weirds her out.
Roxas
Thinks it’s funny and cute but only to an extent. The boy is more worried and concerned. He’s like that video of the drunk girls who were crying over the puppies, like “I NEED TO PROTECT YOU BUT I DON’T KNOW IF I CAN.” Legit cries over you at least once because you’re too cute when you scratch your face and crinkle your nose.
Xion
Literally all over your cuteness. Thinks you’re one of the most adorable things that she’s ever seen. Will make you little hats and maybe a purse or a handbag out of fabric and paper. Will also try to build you a little mouse house to live in until you turn back to normal. It ends up being more of a mouse mansion tbh
Goes so far as to asking if she can be turned into a mouse too because she wants to be that adorable, but everyone has to be like “honey you already are that adorable.”
