#valorant arcade

[creampill]

here she is…. after an awaited interim…

🌟ARCADE 2.0 IS OUT!🌟

Despite being from the bleak dystopia of C-Earth, Arcade brings her sunny attitude and bright mind to every mission. With her custom radar at her disposal, she can give aid to her allies, or deter her enemies; there’s never an unfair fight when she’s around.

With a full design redux and some util and lore updates, here is the most current and correct Arcade design for your viewing pleasure!

Above is her VALORANT styled splash art, and below is her full turnaround reference!

And if you’d like more Arcade, here is her official document!

If you want to know anything else about her, check the #valorant arcade tag on my blog, or throw an ask my way!

(All official Arcade content was made by me unless stated otherwise. I am not associated with Riot in any way- this is just a fan agentsona :))

[hbmmaster]

okay I will say that I don't like how people are saying this design is "movie donkey kong". like, no, this is arcade donkey kong. don't give the illumination movie credit for this design. stolen valor

Nerdy!Vi, who you met with her almost every week even though you already understood what she was teaching you. You soon realize that, who you thought to be an awkward nerd, actually knew her way around with words, so it only took her a few “tutoring” sessions until she had you on a date

Nerdy!Vi, who never plans boring dates, while your friends would just go out to eat or watch a movie, Vi took you Stargazing (With a telescope she got from Viktor after a week of convincing), to an arcade, or to sing karaoke even though she was terrible at it.

Nerdy!Vi, whose favorite activities is to have you on her lap while she teaches you how to play her favorite video games. You are only familiar with games like animal crossing, stardew valley, or minecraft she is set on introducing you to games like valorant, skyrim, or darksouls. Most evenings though end with her helping you (playing the game for you while you ranted over your day) or you convincing her to play the sims.

Nerdy!Vi, who doesn’t know that you downloaded 16 GB sims cc on her precious gaming PC.

Nerdy!Vi who, rewards you with orgasms when you learn with her. She holds your pretty little vibrator to your clit while she asks you your flesh cards. And when you got something wrong she pulls it away, making you cry under her touch

Nerdy!Vi who, would spend hours eating you out if she could. She's obsessed with your taste. She eats you out the morning before her exams as a good luck charm. (Her fogged up glasses stay on)

Nerdy!Vi who, makes you strap warm her while she is on a discord call with friends. Sometimes she puts her headset on you to watch you snuggle to keep up a conversation while she slowly moves her hips

boyfriend! heeseung.

doing these at random and actually having lots of fun writing them! — remember that leaving a like or a reblog shows me you're enjoying the content!

genre: fluff, established relationship. idol! heeseung x reader.

warnings: mentions of arguments, skinship and affections such as kissing.

❀˖° heeseung jay jake sunghoon sunoo jungwon ni-ki ..

- if heeseung likes someone he might be a little shy at first but once he gets to truly know you and get comfortable he grows so much more bold. so he starts taking his chances and shooting his shot, not really hiding that he likes you, hell he wants everyone to know he likes you.

- your first date was probably to a gotcha arcade where he could win you different things and show off a little. he thought it was the perfect first date because you could go home with plushies and other fun prizes and remember not only him but the fun time you had together. he was always thinking 3 steps ahead.

- because that date went so well, he ended up asking you out fairly quickly. which was kinda expected considering how many times he had begged you to go out with him before.

- personal space is nonexistent in this relationship, heeseung loves to be all over you all the time.

- he memories your favorite perfumes, soaps, creams, shampoo and conditioner because he had just fallen in love with your soft scent so much so that he continues buying you the same scents once he realizes you're running low.

- late night ramyeon dates, where you wear one of his extremely oversized hoodies and walk with him to the convenience store, sit and eat your ramyeon and gimbap and talk the night away.

- literally always flirting, heeseung lives to make you blush and all flustered. he can't help but chuckle each time you get shy when he flirts with you shamelessly.

- mornings are always lazy, especially when both of you can sleep in. there is not waking that man up.

- he's so jealous and possessive, like another man looks at you the wrong way it would get him off. his anger is never directed towards you though. he keeps telling you that you can wear whatever you want because he can fight.

- additionally with not caring how you dress or go out, he will protect you buy standing behind you if you're wearing shorts or a short skirt and you need to bend down, just so he can cover you with his body from anyone walking past.

- the above also goes for when you're sitting down, he would use his arm to cover your legs a bit, or he'd throw a blanket over your legs to make sure you're comfortable.

- kissing is always passionate, usually with giggles in between and smiles. it can never be just one peck, he always asks for more. he just can't get enough of you.

- expect his phone to be full of your pictures, so many of you off guard, candid, and just the selfies you've spammed onto his phone that he can't bring himself to delete.

- get ready for long gaming dates that could start off with you guys playing simple games like mario kart or mario party only to end up switching to much harder co-op games like overwatch or valorant.

- he loves to pull you onto his lap while he plays games, and press kisses onto your skin as you scroll through your phone. sometimes he even mutes his mic to talk to you for a while.

- one thing he will do is tease you if you're bad at the game, but he would also use the excuse of having to "teach" you how to play so he can pull you close.

- believe it or not, as much as he loves his games he loves you more. so the second he notices you getting a teeny bit annoyed over him focusing more on his game rather than you, he ends the match and turns off the game for you.

- when you guys play games together and win he says that he wins because he has the best duo partner in the world. you.

- he is always shamelessly checking you out. no matter what you're wearing or what you're doing.

- heeseung also finds so much comfort in you so when he's nervous, shy, anxious, scared he looks for you. if you're shorter than him he'd bend and curl into your body so you can hold him when he's feeling this way.

- when he calls you, he wants to talk for hours and when you finally tell him you have to go and hang up, he would beg you to stay 5 more minutes.

- in heeseung's eyes arguments and disagreements are natural and unavoidable at times. he listens to your side usually with his head hung low regardless of whos at fault or what the argument is about and would need some time to collect his thoughts and voice them.

- he hates going to bed angry or upset so he would probably stay up resolving the issue until you both are okay again and wrapped in each other's arms.

- your hair will always be played with regardless of length or texture. his hands are always in your hair, he mindlessly plays with it when you cuddle. its just his thing.

- on his phone he probably has your name as "mine ❤️" or something like that. but he would get so embarrassed when you see the contact name he has for you. it's cheesy but sweet.

- sometimes when you ask him too, he'll sing softly while you guys are about to drift off to sleep.

- he would even let you wash his face some nights after work when he's like super tired but most times he can't help himself from trying to steal a kiss from you with a soapy face.

- no matter what it is you want to do he's there supporting you 100 percent. he's your biggest support no matter what and he lets you know all the time that he's there for you.

- if you ever reject one of his kisses he would literally chase you around until you gave him a kiss. mans would not let you go free until he got what he wanted.

- sometimes he gets cocky and sits you down after he noticed you had a long day and tells you that you never have to work if you don't want to because he would work on supporting you. yeah, he's THAT in love.

- he loves singing your favorite songs to you at all times, especially when you're laying your head on his lap and he's playing with your hair.

-over all heeseung's just an overall he's a sweet, sometimes cocky and annoying boyfriend who loves getting a rise out of you.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki Headcannons ?!

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki loves video games no matter the genre. However, he tends to prefer games that have a pvp aspect or are competitive due to the skill he holds towards these games. For example, Fortnite, Valorant, Mario Kart, etc.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki always has Minecraft running in the background when gaming, so he can quickly switch to it if needed.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki likes to mine the most in Minecraft. When he's not doing that, he's either exploring or killing off mobs. ( Building is NOT his specialty )

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki wears a soft pink headset that has interchangeable cat ears. ( It was a Christmas gift from Panda. )

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki has a headset that is designed to his likes and his gaming tendencies that also matches the color scheme of his setup, but still wears the ones Panda got him out of appreciation.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki prefers gaming on his PC or his Xbox due to its easy controls, better privacy settings, and raw computing power. ( He is an avid Playstation hater. )

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki has both a regular Nintendo Switch and a smaller Nintendo Switch Lite he likes to bring on his person, whether in public or at school.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki used to be a chronic DS & 3DS user as a kid, but now he keeps it preserved on display in his bedroom.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki was always a big fan of the Pokémon franchise, and some of his favorites are Togepede and the Aloan Vulpix.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki's favorite 'old' Pokémon game is Pokémon White.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki thinks fire starter type Pokémon are overrated and always chooses the water types.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki has a microphone for voice chat but only uses it when he is playing with his friends; aka people who understand his rice ball language.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki wears your classic white boy t-shirts while playing. ( Eat sleep game repeat, I paused my game to be here, etc ) In addition, he has a collection of these but refuses to wear them outside his dorm or house

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki used to rage and go absolutely feral over Among Us in 2020

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki has accidentally cursed someone out of rage, forcing them to log off and delete their account.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki bought a fancy gaming chair that can recline and have adjustable height ( as well as a secret massage mode ) that he can play/adjust by using a remote. ( Panda offered to buy him a toilet bowl attachment )

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki often drags his fellow second years out to arcades in competition to see who can win by getting the most tickets by the end of the night. ( He always wins, but Yuta comes close due to Rika's help ( she's cheating ))

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki has a YouTube channel for gaming that he will occasionally post a vlog on

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki first started posting videos in his rice ball language but realized after a while that the reason he wasn't getting likes was because people couldn't understand him. Shortly after, he stopped talking and just started adding subtiltes/captions.

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki has built his own PC with the help of Yuta. ( All he did was be emotional support as Toge rambled on about it and went with him to shops to buy the necessary parts )

Gamer/Streamer!Inumaki is also really good at board games, but for some reason SUCKS at any type of Monopoly besides the cheaters version. ( and chess, he is horrid at chess )

GEKKO: La chica a mi lado

————————————————————————

Warnings: Fluff, fem reader

A/n: this is my first time using tumblr and posting my writing anywhere online, so I would greatly appreciate any feedback!!

Since it was the weekend and you and Gekko were off duty today, the both of you unanimously agreed to spend the day together. You guys are a couple, after all.

As soon as the both of you knew it, the sun had already begun to set. You and Gekko went out the entire day, going to a cafe for breakfast, going to an arcade, then getting lunch at a small restaurant, after that going to a nearby park to enjoy each other’s company, and then now where you both are walking out of a boba shop.

Gekko reached for your hand and intertwined his fingers with yours, holding your hand with a gentle grip. “I don’t want today to end.” He murmurs as he turns his head to look at you with a cute smile.

You turn your head to face him as he spoke, a small frown appearing on your face knowing that the day was gonna end soon.

Suddenly, your eyes widen slightly and your lips curve upward as your face lit up while an idea popped into your head. “I know what we could do to end the day,” you chirp, your eyes sparkling with excitement.

Taken aback by your excited demeanor, Gekko’s eyebrows raised for a moment before his face relaxed into a grin. “What’s your idea, mi querida?” He asked as wingman hopped on his shoulder, looking at you with a curious gaze.

“How about a movie night? We could run to grocery store right now to grab some snacks and head back to HQ to chill in your room then put on a movie?” You said, anticipation threaded in your voice, before taking the last sip of your drink. You then hand your empty cup to wingman who happily took it and jumped down from Gekko’s shoulders and waddled to a nearby trash can, slamming the cup into the trash and mimicking the planting action he does with the spike during missions.

Gekko’s face lit up, like yours did earlier, as wingman did his thing and gasped. “Why didn’t I think of that? Great idea, (y/n), let’s go now!” He beamed with a chuckle before tightening his grip on your hand and pulling you along with him down the street. You laughed at his enthusiasm and happily followed him, wingman jogging along with the both of you towards a small grocery store near Valorant HQ.

Once you arrive, wingman returns into Gekko’s pouch and you both quickly enter and begin browsing your options in the chip aisle. You grab a bag of chips, one that both you and he liked, and toss it to him. “Hold this real quick.” You remark before walking further down the aisle while resting your hand on your chin in thought.

“Woah!” He exclaims as he fumbles with the bag of chips. He lets out a relieved exhale as he prevents the chips from dropping on the ground and tucks it between his arm and torso.

“What kinda chips do you want?” You inquire. “Oh, I like this one.” You say before grabbing a bag of chips you liked and, once again, tossing it to Gekko who scrambled to catch the bag.

“Hey!” He blurts out as he catches it perfectly. “Hold on and let me choose too.” He whines as he jogs to catch up to you. You laugh a bit before moving out the way as he comes over and scans the shelves for something he liked. “Ah, mi favorito.” He smiles in satisfaction as he tosses it to you, copying the way you threw the chips to him in a playful manner.

You, with a small laugh, catch it flawlessly before motioning for him to follow you. “Can’t have a movie night without candy, can we?” You smirk as you advance to the candy aisle.

As you and Gekko make your way over, you can’t help but notice a pair of girls heading to the same aisle. You think nothing of it, other than that their outfits were pretty, since they didn’t glance at you or acknowledge your presence.

You and Gekko stand on opposite sides of the candy aisle from the pair of girls and browse your options. “Don’t you like these?” He asks as he turns to you and hands you a bag of your favorite candy.

Your face lights up, giddy at the fact that Gekko remembered small details about you, and you eagerly grab the candy out if his hands, “you remembered.”

“Of course I did, why wouldn’t i?” He says as he shoots you a proud smile.

You quickly spot his favorite candy and take grab it from the rack and hand it to him. “And aren’t these tu favorito?” You ask, using your little knowledge about Spanish combined with your expertise about his favorite things.

He lets out a laugh, one that makes your heart melt every time you hear it, “Perfecto.” He replied before pressing a small kiss to your cheek. “I think this is enough, lets go.” He adds before walking with you to the self-checkout section.

You both patiently wait in line while chatting with one another. As you finally reach the front of the line, you notice that the pair of girls that you had seen earlier in the candy aisle were behind you and Gekko in the line.

You try and take this chance to compliment their outfits and turn your head to face them, but to your dismay you hear them whispering to one another. You heard stuff that you probably shouldn’t have.

“Yeah, he’s really cute.” One girl with brunette hair whispers to the other girl with red hair while staring at Gekko next to me.

“You should ask for his number.” The red hair responds while giggling and nudging her friend with the brunette hair.

“But that girl is there…” The brunette mumbles, a small pout on her face.

A knot forms at the bottom of your stomach as you turn away, your eyebrows furrowing and a faint frown appearing on your lips.

Gekko quickly picks up your change in demeanor when you start to give him short responses in the conversation.

He turns to you with a worried expression, “(y/n)? What’s wrong?” He questions, reaching for your hand, as you both walk over to the next available self-checkout station.

You let out a sigh, “Its nothing. It’s just those two girls behind us in line.” You mumble as your previous nasty expression softens at his concern.

“Who?” He asks before turning around and trying to look for who you were talking about. Way to make it obvious.

You follow his gaze to the brunette and the red haired girl, who were at a station near you guys, and see the brunette bite her bottom lip nervously as she gazed at Gekko.

You roll your eyes as the feeling of jealousy sank its teeth into your emotions. You start scanning your items as Gekko returned to your side. “Is it the brown haired girl with the red haired girl? What did they do?” He asks, his voice depicting his huge concern about the situation at hand.

“They just…” You begin before pausing momentarily, “They were talking about you.” You answer bitterly while taking the chips and candy out of his hands to scan them.

He raised an eyebrow up at you, confused. “What did they say? Please tell me, mi amor, I don’t want you to be upset.” He pleads as he steps closer to you and wraps one arm around your waist and pulls you closer to him. His body heat mixing with yours made it hard to deny his comfort, as if you could ever turn it down in the first place.

You finish scanning all of the items and put them into one plastic bag before turning to face him. “They were saying stuff about how you were… really cute and stuff and how the brown haired girl should ask for your number.”

His eyes widen a bit, shocked at what you finally revealed at what was bothering you. But before he could say anything, you hear footsteps approaching from behind him.

“Um, excuse me sir?” Your heart drops as you peak behind him and see the brunette standing in front of him as he turns to face her. She played with her hair nervously with a pink blush dusting her cheeks.

You scoff, balling your hand into a fist, “Oh my god, she’s not actually…”

“I saw you and thought you were really cute… a-and I was wondering if I could have your number?” She stuttered anxiously while batting her eyelashes.

“Uhh, no habla ingles.” He blurts out as he flattens his lips and shrugs his shoulders dramatically.

The girl narrows her eyes suspiciously before chuckling awkwardly, “but I saw you talking to that girl behind you earlier, in English?”

“Ohh ¿La chica a mi lado?” He laughs, “Esa es mi novia.” He starts, before going on a ramble in Spanish and sticking with his act that he couldn’t speak English. “La amo mucho y ella significa todo para mí. Ella es la chica más maravillosa y hermosa que he conocido y no se compara con nadie más-“

You had to suppress a laugh that threatened to come out of your mouth as you stared at how absolutely bewildered the girl looked.

The girl finally stopped his rambling and shook her head dismissively and chuckled awkwardly before she spoke up. “Uh, y’know what? Nevermind, have a great day sir…” she says before turning around and stiffly walking back to her red haired friend who looked at her with a confused expression.

Gekko turns around and faces you with a confident smile. “And thats how to get rid of a girl thats making your girlfriend jealous.” He chuckles before nudging you teasingly.

You try to fight off a smile creeping onto your face. “Whatever, I wasn’t even that jealous.” You lie.

“But you were.” He remarks as he pays for all the snacks.

“Was not.” You argue.

“Was too.” He fires back.

“Was not.”

“Was too.”

You roll your eyes as a smile breaks out onto your face. “Whatever, you win today.” You admit with a small grumble as you grab the bag full of snacks.

He laughs before pressing a tender kiss to my cheek, “thanks, cariño.”

As soon as he does that, you see the brunette and her red haired friend walk by. You catch a glimpse of the brunette rolling her eyes at you and pulling her friend’s arm forward forcefully, trying to get her to walk faster.

“Oops,” Gekko blurted from beside you as he reached for your hand and held it. “I guess my lie was found out.”

You chuckle a bit, “I don’t mind.”

“She sure does.” He joked as you both began walking out of the grocery store, the glow of the sunset shining on your faces.

“What were you even rambling about anyway?” You question curiously. The only thing you picked up on was the lie that he couldn’t speak English.

“Don’t worry about it,” he dismissed my question with the wave of his hand. This made you more curious, but you decide to not press him further. “Anyway, what movie do you wanna watch? I’m down for anything.”

“I’m kinda thinking about ghostbusters right now.”

“¡Sí! Thats a classic.”

(we were in 5th grade about 10?)

Neon: I watched my younger brother slide into the Oven door. My parents for some reason put it in the living room. I tried to help him by saying it was the dog. However Our dog was living with my grandparents. (7?)

Fade: Spent a whole hour meowning at a random cat in France (I was 12, and where were my parents?) Harbor: I am a huge history nerd, I did three book reports on the titanic, Then when we had to be characters for a fake museum where we would have to preform for epople I decided to be the drunk man that survived (I was 10, why didnt a teacher tell me no?)

Gekko: I had one of the electronic Furbies, i still have that yellow shit. Me and my brother were playing with him and he turned evil and we got so scared. For a month we made our mom put him under a flowerpot with 2 bibles on top of it. (I actually dont know how old I was)

Deadlock: My grandma gave me a sewing kit for one of my birthdays so I just threw it at people (6)

Iso: Collected little rocks at recess then put them in the shoes of kids I didnt like (6)

Clove: Jumped off the top of the playground because I wanted to impress my crush, then I hit my head on the slide pole. Surprisingly I ended up being just fine.

Vyse: ummm I had a Wiggle (if anyone remembers those) and I would constantly bully it. I actualy dont know how old I was but I was a kid

Honorable mention: I farted in church when i was 4 and blamed it on Jesus and apparently you’re not supposed to do that. Also this is a rough memory and stir from the top of my head, I have childhood trauma

Anyways i finally got therapy. Byeeee working on a request rn

[pinky-lemon]

can you dump a list of any misc rgg headcanons you have that arent enough to make a sole post for

i have many and maybe some of these you haven't heard. but you'll hear them anyway

tallest to shortest for the judge gang: kaito, higashi, sugiura, tsukumo and yagami, hoshino. counting kuwana, he would be slightly taller than Yagami but side by side you can't tell the difference (unless if you look hard enough)

yagami is half vietnamese because I am delusional. on the topic of that, he likes viet drip coffee the best but is too lazy to brew it on his own

both yagami and joon-gi cannot understand/talk to girls. yagami simply treats everyone the same even if this has consequences (e.g. sawa-sensei) and other than his relationship with seonghee, joon-gi is just socially inept

yagami cannot take care of himself for the life of him. terrible insomnia, skips meals, forgets to wash. most of these can be explained by his law school studying habits/being really invested in a case. this also means that on occasion (when it gets really bad), his friends have to force him to take care of himself (kaito bringing takeout, sugiura offering drives, higashi letting yagami sit in his arcade to decompress, tsukumo offering online advice, etc)

the reason to why judgment doesn't have karaoke is the fact that yagami is a reserved singer and only sings off camera

yagami is a biter. take it however you wish

kaito has a tattoo of the god of fortune, ebisu. used to be a violent feared god, now one of peace and pacifism

sugiura is probably really good at video games. cracked as the kids would say. likes popular games like valorant and fortnite (inspired by another hc list)

sugi is genderfluid to me and goes by any pronouns. he also got top surgery

they wouldn't give yagami a bed because you know his ass would go full blanket hoarder mode. whenever the camera pans up to him waking up he's just in a stupid looking cocoon. he's not even cold or anything he just likes the pressure

i could go on but we would be here all day and these are the ones I mostly remember

No. 1 - the War of the Banners flashback from for love is strong as death

They stood upon a shelf carved into the rock, with rough hewn walls and ceiling surrounding them on four sides, including the rock face from which they had just emerged. But the floor underfoot was inset with dizzying patterns of mosaic tile, smoothed with traffic over time but with colors undimmed. Ahead, an arcade towered before them, where a succession of six majestic columns had been carved to give the impression they were holding the ceiling aloft. Beyond the arcade, a narrow bridge crossed a deep ravine, punctuated at regular intervals along its length with plinths, upon which sat marble sculptures, carved (Agnes could only assume) to glorify the features of Van Markham patriarchs by now long dead.

And—across the bridge—there it sat: creamy ivory, as polished bone; run through with spokes of blade-sharp buttresses; the many rings of its fortifications surrounding one central tower that loomed so high into the ether above them, Agnes had to crane her neck to see the top of it; that venerated and august monument that so few mortals had laid eyes upon, that the late Kyna Thalberg had prepared hundreds of years ago for the Van Markham family: The Ossified Bastion of the Valorous Dead.

There was not so much as a single skeleton outside its walls to guard its gate or its bridge. Yet according to Emmrich, this was the Baron’s stronghold—it did not make any sense that it should be left so vulnerable.

“Lieutenant, something’s not right.”

Watcher Braam’s voice carried an anxious pitch to it; Agnes had little patience to soothe her, staring as she was at the puzzle in front of her, across the ravine. “Indeed,” she replied, distracted. “It is as silent as the grave here—which ordinarily would be reassuring, but after all the trouble the Baron has been causing the last few weeks, I find it somewhat suspect.”

“No, that isn’t it,” Watcher Braam urged, her voice rising to something akin to a whine. “I mean, something’s really not right. Didn’t anyone else feel that? Just after we came through that crack in the rocks?”

Agnes’ ears had popped, and she’d felt an odd itching at the base of her skull… but she was not as sensitive to the Necropolis nor the magic within it as some of the other, more accomplished necromancers, like Watcher Braam. Agnes hadn’t thought anything of it. “What did you feel?”

Liesbeth Braam looked green in the face. “I think we moved.”

Agnes heard the indrawn breaths around her, saw the body language of everyone in the group go rigid with terror all at once. It was not possible, and all of them knew it, including Liesbeth—when the Necropolis was on the verge of rearranging its architecture, there were often signs, ways to prepare. But Agnes had come to know Liesbeth better from working closely with her in their pursuit of Baron Van Markham—Liesbeth did not strike Agnes as the kind of person who would jump to such a wild conclusion out of fear, nor would she say something quite so provocative if she hadn’t been fairly confident it was true.

Agnes turned to Rolf. “Magnusson, take Heulte with you and check the path behind us.” As they left, Agnes organized the remaining Watchers into groups, and—out of an abundance of caution—had them shelter themselves against the pillars at the edge of the rock shelf, where they would be obscured by any spectral eyes that might peer out of the narrow windows of the Bastion beyond. As they lay in wait for Rolf’s return, Agnes kept her eyes trained on the Bastion for any sign at all of activity, of movement, of what might lay inside, but it was of little use; the Bastion kept its secrets.

And Rolf Magnusson and Finnegan Heulte returned to the group with more bad news. “No good,” Rolf told them, bluntly. “There is no path.”

“No path?” Agnes repeated, trying to ignore both the rising chorus of profanity ringing out in her head and the uneasy whispers and murmurs of the group of Watchers around her. “But that does not make sense—surely there should still be some path?” 

For even if impossible had happened, and the Grand Necropolis had shifted its variable halls, and the path did not lead them back the way they had come, through the Crystalline Catacombs, it should surely lead some where— to some other part of the Necropolis. (How they would then navigate the newly shuffled halls to resurface again in the Mourn Watch residence, Agnes could not say—but that was another problem entirely, best addressed after they addressed whatever was happening in the Ossified Bastion itself.) But then Watcher Braam spoke up quietly, beside Agnes, refuting that assumption with a chilling supposition:

“Not if we’ve been severed from the Grand Necropolis entirely.”

Then the whispers ceased utterly, and the group of Watchers fell silent—not only silent but still. This implication was so dreadful and terrible that for a moment none of them dared draw breath under the weight of it.

‘That is not possible,’ Agnes was desperate to say—but if all her expeditions down into the Necropolis’ lower levels with Emmrich had taught her anything, it was that there were perils in the Necropolis older and more powerful than even most Watchers understood; that the further into the hallowed halls of mourning one descended, so too did the likelihood increase that the Necropolis residents one encountered there would be less benign, and less benevolent.

I’m really proud of all the writing I did this year! So for the last ten days of 2024 I’m going to be reblogging my 10 favorite pieces that I wrote.

When I started putting this list together, I knew right away what my No. 1 was going to be. I think one of my favorite things about writing fan fiction is... metaphorically getting to come into a piece of media like I'm on a HGTV show, knock out all the walls, and make the house 2x bigger. I've spent so much time in the Necropolis the last six months, it just feels very real to me—it's one of my favorite places in Thedas. Maybe the favorite. And while there is plenty to be said about the writing in general in Veilguard, I really loved that there were just enough breadcrumbs between the MW faction origin, the King Markus reveal, and the rest of the world building for me to stitch this backstory together for Agnes.

Also like!!! Rolf again. 2025 is going to be a good year for Rolf. I'm going to make it up to him for everything I put him through with Agnes.

Gigi Gothel hc please ?

Her full name is Magnolia Marguerite Gothel, but since Ginny and her brothers couldn't pronounce her name correctly when they were little she's gone by 'Gigi' for as long as she could remember.

Like the ditched draft of d2 says in this post, she is fourteen years old by d2.

Her birthday is October 10th and she was born in the middle of year 7.

Gigi is nearsighted.

She has magic but it is dormant until she gets off the isle.

She has a crush on Cailee Beckett. Her cousin, Amara Tremaine (who is fifteen years old in d2)’s friend who works at Curl Up & Dye.

Gigi has ‘volunteered’ to work at Curl up & Dye because of this because she likes spending time with Amara as well as Cailee and it's hard for the two of them to find free time between Lady Tremaine, Cutler Beckett, and Mother Gothel’s meddling.

She is the daughter of ‘Judge’ Claude Frollo and ‘Mother’ Esther Eloise Dame Gothel.

She has seven siblings in my main descendants universe, nine siblings in my Hannah Hook verse, and… well, it's complicated in the Invisible Truth Universe.

Her parental siblings are named: Cesare Bartholomew Colmille Frollo, Cornel Thomas Howard Frollo, Cyriacus Ignatius Vladimir Frollo, and Claudine Esther-Mary Frollo. There's also Eduardo Frollo, but he only exists in the Hannah Hook verse.

Her maternal siblings are named: Ginevra 'Ginny' Flower Madrigal, Mason Primethorn Gothel, and Glendale ‘Glenn’ Hazel Gothel. She also has a fraternal twin named Phoebe ‘Peachy’ Gothel in the Hannah Hook verse.

She has several parental cousins: Jehan Frollo's daughter—Jeanette Frollo–, Veil Frollo and Jack Heart’s three children—Valor Frollo-Hearts, Riddle Rosehearts, and Rollo Flamme— as well as The Tremaines. Because surprise, Lady Tremaine and Frollo are siblings (not that either of them like to admit it).

Gigi loves unicorns and flowers, though she keeps them away from Ginny since Ginny hates flowers and is allergic.

She appeared a lot in her Mother's show ‘Skin Deep With Mother Gothel’ and her best class was Selfishness 101 (the one her mother taught).

She originally went to Madam Mim’s School of Magic but because Madam Mim and Mother Gothel had a little spat, causing her to get kicked out.

Out of all her siblings, she gets along with her mother probably the best (mostly because she's a sweetheart) but that's not really saying much.

Gigi is short and slender with shoulder length black hair and big brown eyes that are almost always hidden behind round framed glasses.

She loves astronomy (like Glenn), Cryptozoology, cheesemaking, scrumping, true crime, and ghost hunting. She's also always wanted to go to the spa but hasn't gotten the chance yet.

She uses the same elixir Evie does to prevent her hair from getting frizzy.

Gigi is a part of the following clubs: Orchestra, Sea Ponies Club, ‘Speaking with Trolls’ Club, and the ‘Wicked Beauties’ club (though she's not very popular in the last one).

Her favorite game at Mr. Facilier’s Arcade is ‘Knock 'N Down, Win A Crown’.

She loves the Bad Apples, partially because she likes their music, partially because her sister's in the band, and partially because she had an itty-bitty crush on Diego when she was younger (which her siblings will never let her live down).

Her favorite candy (not that she's tired many) is Gummi snakes (she only had them once and is dying to try them again).

She can actually read the menu at the slop shop (she likes learning languages, okay?).

One time in P.E, when they were playing ‘Doom Ball’, she broke her nose. Another time, when they were playing ‘Foul Ball’, she got a concussion. Despite this, she still loves both games very much.

No one showed up to her Super Sinister Thirteen (her thirteen birthday party). At least until her brothers (Mason and Glenn, who are apart of the lost Revenge crew) went and told Uma who gathered up the rest of the crew. After that, a strange amount of people who totally weren't threatened into going showed up with gifts.

One of her best friends is the wicked witch and scarecrow's daughter, Elizabeth 'lizard' West; she's 12.

Gigi watches tv whenever she can because even though the villain channel ‘Evil Isle’ no longer exists it helps her escape from reality.

She used to write letters to Cassandra and Rapunzel when she was little, but of course she never received a response.

The Tremaines get their supply of ‘Murky Maggie's Soap Suds for the Anti-Socialite’ from her because Maggie Mim refuses to work with them because of something Dorothy did (She has no idea what she did).

She also supplies centipedes, worms, and other bugs to local businesses (she, like Mason, is really into nature and bugs).

One time, during a food fight, she hit Frollo and Mal with a snake egg and it exploded everywhere and stunk up the restaurant. She's never feared for her life more (Mal thought it was funny afterwards. Frollo did not).

She eventually gets her own Royallr and Auratube accounts.

When she grows up, she wants to be a famous actor, model, and cosmetologist.

Her top three Auradon shows are: Get Down With The Ballgown, Real Princesses Of Charmingsville, and The Young And The Crownless.

Her favorite princess on the Real Princesses of Charmingsville is Princess Pema because she reminds her of herself.

She is subscribed to 'Pirate Word of the Day' so she can keep up with what her brothers are saying.

Gigi is terrified of clowns and usually avoids Hermie Bing and the area in which the Bing Circus is located because of this.

She has a dagger collection as well as a Newspaper and Magazine collection.

It doesn't matter what newspaper and magazine. She's read Royal Digest, Vanity Fairy, Good Castlekeeping, Aladdin’s Bazaar, Ella, National Aristocratic, Sidekick Living, Mirror Mirror, Hero’s Health, Friends and Foes, Wicked Weekly, & Better Spells and Potions. Every issue she can get her hands on.

Same goes for the Newspapers.

She also has… a collection of random Auradon stuff. She loves Auradon music, postcards, etc.

Gigi also has a concerning amount of flyers and newspapers from Auradon Prep, and other Auradon schools.

Her siblings jokingly call her a hoarder.

(Look she just really really really wants to go to Auradon and she and Dizzy have stayed up for nights talking about it. Dragging the rest of the Tremaines, Gothels, Celia, and the smee twins with them).

She doesn't know if Frollo knows she's his daughter but she doesn't want to find out and she's not gonna be the one to bring it up because that man is terrifying.

Gigi, while appearing unassuming, is actually pretty crafty and could survive on her own if needed. She just doesn't want to.

She knows that on some level, Ginny resents her and the twins because she had to basically raise them, so she does her best to stay out of Ginny's hair even though she loves her sister a lot.

She calls Ginny ‘Sissy’ occasionally. As a nickname, not an insult.

She and Ginny's boyfriend, Clay, get along pretty well and she's friends with his younger brothers, Cash and Wilson.

She does most of the cooking, cleaning, and chores for the household.

Her favorite teacher is Yen Sid and her least favorite is Gaston, followed closely by her mother.

Gigi has skipped school exactly once in her life because the one time she did she got caught by Dr. Facilier (she was seven and went to his arcade). She decided then that her luck is horrible and scraping gum out from under desks and tables is not worth the risk of cutting class.

She hates the color yellow.

She can play the E-flat clarinet and the cello.

Her favorite food is Hazelnut & Parsnip Soup.

Her favorite restaurant on the isle is Hades Souvlaki: It's Under This World.

Her favorite shop is Hook's Clock and Curiousity shop.

Gigi Gothel is banned from the Queen of Hearts Salon. She knows what she did.

On a side note, she swears the Queen of Hearts hates her for no reason and is failing her in her class on purpose.

One time, Zevon made her cry and not only did he get beat up by her brothers but he got the cold shoulder from his brother (Lil Yaz did not hear the end of that from Ginny until the little brat apologized and it was the only time he had an actual shouting match with his little brother).

Now Zevon is terrified of even looking at her wrong.

She also somehow befriended the only one of Mad Maddy's siblings, Murky Maggie, who Maddy is on good terms with. Nobody knows how (she's also good friends with their younger aunt, Avalon Mim-Knightley).

Her favorite Bad Apple song is ‘We're The Brunos’, followed closely by “Santa Hates Isle Kids’.

She hates their song ‘Daddy (Mommy) Didn’t Love Me’.

She can't listen to the songs ‘Saint Cyriacus’, ‘Not A Perfect Man, But A Good One’, and ‘Love is Love’—the ones Claudine wrote about their dead brothers Gigi never got to meet, because they make her sad and angry.

She ends up working with both Dizzy Tremaine and Evie’s 4 Hearts.

Gigi also dabbles in writing. She runs the two isle magazines ‘Belladona’ and ‘Where The Sun Don't Shine’.

She has a minor Iron allergy.

Ginny made the mistake of bringing Gigi with her to Mal’s Hellraiser party and well… no one told Gigi what toadshots were. Needless to say, she was very sick in the days following.

To make up for, Ginny stole one of Maleficent's cloaks that she thought Gigi would like when people were ransacking Maleficent's house after d1.

She's claustrophobic and, after seeing Clay near drowned after the Hellraiser party, is terrified of drowning.

Her favorite hero is Ariel because she relates the most to her.

Gigi is secretly afraid that Rapunzel’s family and the rest of the heroes/reformed villains from her mother's story won't like her.

Also she'd love Jordan's Auratube channel and the Auradon Bedtime Podcast if she had access to them.

Gigi has always wanted a pet but her mother would never allow her one. She also knows more about her family than she wants to.

Works at Mother Gothel's Healing Emporium somewhat against her will.

Also when she was little (talking a literal toddler) she accidentally killed something and her mother will not.shut.up.about.it. Always using it to brag about how her children are the most beautiful and evil as if the event she's talking about isn't one of the most traumatizing things that's ever happened to Gigi.

Mother Gothel is that mom who tells her ‘friends’ about the most embarrassing, humiliating things she somehow knows about her kids (they stopped telling her things about them very early on because of this habit of hers and they don't know how she keeps finding out information like that about them).

She has tried and failed to escape the isle several times since she was a kid but luckily, no one's ever seen her epic fails.

She somehow always manages to sneak up on people without even trying (she's a very quiet walker).

She has a stuffed unicorn named ‘Punzie’ that the twins gave her when they were little.

Oh and she still can't spell her own name.

Her favorite poison is Digitalis. Sometimes her siblings catch her staring a little too long at it and get concerned. Usually happens when Gothel or Frollo have been meaner than usual to her siblings.

She has a heart condition, like Chloe Charming does (in my au).

She gets detention her first day at Auradon Prep (and cries). Her older siblings' have never been prouder.

What are your agents favorite game genres? (Would inklings and octolings even have FPS games? they can just turf war?)

(I forgot about airsoft but TBF that's BANNED in Austraila with....FOURTEEN YEARS INPRISONMENT?!?!?!?)

First, that punishment is insane who wrote that into law w h a t

Second, FPS would probably still exist, considering how generic ones still exist with activities like airsoft and paintball, and hero shooters like Overwatch, Valorant, and Rivals can fill more exotic roles, so the same would probably still apply. (plus, there are more species than inkfish that may want to feel the sensation of American culture in their hands)

Third, actual answers:

Cap likes classic arcade games in general, along with the big names from the gameboy. They discovered Pokemon Showdown and are pretty decently placed on the ladders of a worryingly high amount of formats.

Four likes idle games, the ones you leave running in the background and have numbers tick up. That's how she got into playing video games, and she doesn't see the point of changing now.

Eight doesn't like video games. She is really bad at them. To put it in pokémon terms, opponent's quick claw triggers nine times in a row, freeze an opponent four times in a row only for them to thaw the exact turn they were frozen each time, and confusion always lasts the entire duration and causes self-damage each time (yes, all of these have happened to me and each time i wanted to crawl into the game and beat a magic animal to death with my bare hands). She will only play party games like Gartic or Jackbox because there's pretty much no way for the universe to screw her over on those consistently. The single game she plays outside of that genre is Power Washing Sim, which Three got for her birthday.

Neo's tastes can most accurately be described with those memes that popped up when DOOM Eternal and AC: New Horizons came out on the same day back in 2018.

Masterlist de mi autoría

~ Capitulo anterior Capítulo siguiente ~

~ XXXIII ~

~Ustedes no se hacen IDEA de la cantidad de tonterías que esta mujer compró en solo dos dias.~Yuki sostenía su palo de selfie erguido, grabándose tanto a él como a Tania~. Muñeco que ve, muñeco que compra... Algunos bastantes cuestionables.~

~¡No lo escuchen, es mentira!~

A pesar de que el público usual de Tania estaba acostumbrado a verla interactuar con Yuki -solían jugar Valorant juntos- verlos lado a lado, fue una completa sorpresa. Vibraban en la misma sintonía. Y la tontería de ambos se potenciaba con la presencia del otro. A eso había que sumarle la exaltación de la mujer para con todo. Era una niña en una dulcería.

~¿Saben de esa figura de Eren? Deben saber de cuál hablo...~

~No lo escuchen, es un hobbit mentiroso.~

~Oh, chistes de altura. Que creativo.~

~Tengo muchos, no me obligues a usarlos... ¿Qué podríamos hacer hoy? ¿Arcade? ¿Algo más tradicional? ¿Akihabara otra vez?~Tania revisaba su celular.

~Pensé que tal vez podíamos ver algo de drifting... Por si tu teoría descabellada del evento no se cumple y resulta ser un evento aburrido.~

~... ¿Como en Reto Tokyo?~

~Si, amiga. Justo asi.~

Lando miraba aquel stream desde su departamento, confirmando la asistencia al evento.

El mail de confirmación le había llegado junto a una nota de su representante, informándole que otro piloto asistiría también, que sería beneficioso figurar juntos en el evento. Lando accedió complacido, pensando que se refería a Tania. Pero no. No era la mujer.

Esa noche, cuando Tania y Yuki llegaron a la exposición callejera de autos, la mujer perdió la cabeza.

Siempre había disfrutado de las películas de carreras, y Tokyo Drift era su segunda favorita de la franquicia. Justo en ese momento, se sentía en la película, y no podia estar más fascinada.

—Todo es tan colorido y ruidoso... Me encanta...—

A esas alturas, Yuki era el encargado de grabar, intentando no perder de vista a la mujer que corría de un lado a otro con su cámara, fotografiando a cada auto que llamaba su atención.

—No te alejes mucho, mira si te pisa un auto.—

—¿Será muy difícil armar uno de estos?—Tania se acercó emocionada al dueño de uno de los autos, sacándole charla.

Pero lo que parecía una pequeña charla casual para Yuki, era una muy vaga y previa consulta mecánica.

—Voy a hacer mi propio auto de drifting.—

~... ¿Qué?~

Apenas volvió a su hotel, Tania hizo un stream cortito con Franco, Ollie y Kimi. Les contó lo visto esa noche, y su idea sobre un futuro proyecto mecánico.

—Voy a comprar un auto base, y modificarlo.—

~Cariño, te salteas todas las carreras de derrape cuando jugamos al Need for Speed ¿y ahora te gusta?~

—No me gusta, me fascina. Quiero mi auto, con corazones y brillos por todos lados. Lo opuesto al Camaro. Suena divertido, y es todo nuevo. Aprender sobre la marcha.—

~A mi me parece buena idea.~intervino Oliver.

~Si ella salta de un puente, tú la sigues, Bearman.~Franco rió apenas~. Pero bueno, si ella quiere construir un auto sin tener idea, para correr algo de lo que tampoco tiene idea...~

—No es correr, es derrapar, genio... Podría ser un Honda rosa como el de Yuki... O tal vez un Celica...—

~¿Y por qué no un Skyline? ¿No era que te gustaba?~Kimi miraba distraído las fotos que la mujer compartía.

—Kiki, corazón... Ni mi sueldo anual de Formula 2, TC y mecánica me alcanzan para comprar el más destruido de todos los Skyline de Japón...—

Apenas llegó al evento, Tania buscó integrarse a algún pequeño grupo. No conocía a nadie, pero muchos la reconocieron a ella. Y fue por eso que terminó charlando a gusto con algunos directivos de Nike.

Si consigo patrocinadores, tampoco sería tan malo ¿No?

—¿Tania?—

La mujer volteó al escuchar su nombre, sorprendiéndose al ver a Charles.

—... Que sorpresa verte por aqui.—le dio un abrazo cordial, pero algo le hacía demasiado ruido.

¿Qué diablos hacía el chico ahí?

Charles solo se explicó con "una linda casualidad". Tania no estaba nada convencida. Y terminó de molestarse al ver a Lando también en el lugar.

—¿Qué diablos hacen aqui?—

—¿Viniste con él?—Lando miraba más que dolido a Charles, quien parecía divertirse con aquello.

—Yo no vine con nadie. Ustedes me siguieron. Y no se atrevan a decir que es una coincidencia porque no lo es...—Tania miraba a ambos lados del pasillo, corroborando que nadie los estuviera viendo—. Les dije bien claro que debíamos mantener distancia... Eso incluia eventos sociales ¿Saben?—

—No pensé que él estaría aqui.—

—Ah, pues yo tampoco esperaba que tú estuvieras aquí.—

—Escuchen una cosa, par de tontos acosadores... No los quiero a menos de 10 metros de distancia.—

—Querida, está lleno de periodistas ¿No crees que sería muy sospechoso si los únicos tres pilotos del lugar se sientan super separados?—Charles sonrió.

—¿Te divierte esto, Leclerc?—se encogió de hombros divertido—. Pues no pienso compartir notas con ustedes, no disimulan nada.—

—Eso lo iremos viendo sobre la marcha...—

Cuando la cena dio inicio y Tania buscó su mesa, ellos estaban ahí..

—Te dije, bien juntos.—Charles le dedicó una mirada fugaz a la silla vacía entre ambos.

—... Esto no puede estar pasando.—

—Prometo portarme bien.—

—Se metieron a un evento ultra cerrado sobre algo que no les importa un carajo solo para molestarme... Eso no es portarse bien, Lando... Y por supuesto que te bloquearé luego de esto.—

El rostro del chico demostraba cierto terror, pero entonces la comida empezó a llegar, y con ello el cuarto y último integrante de la mesa. Un periodista.

—La chica de oro y dos pesos pesados de la parrilla actual... Mejor asiento no pudo tocarme.—bromeó el hombre, pero a Tania no le causó gracia.

—Podría haberte tocado junto a Tania, el mejor lugar... pero me temo que ése lo tengo yo.—Lando se relajó en la silla.

La mujer quería apuñalarlo con el tenedor.

Durante la cena, Tania intentó mostrarse relajada y amable. Cuestión que le costó un poco teniendo en cuenta de que tenía a ambos lados a dos pilotos con los que se habia acostado, y justo enfrente a un periodista que podría ventilar esa cuestión con medio mundo con solo una nota.

Y los comentarios del par no ayudaban en nada.

—¿Usted sabe de qué será el anuncio?—Tania intentó desviar la atención del periodista.

—No realmente, pero se dice que será una edición especial de un modelo clásico.—

—¿Un Skyline tal vez?—Tania sonrió, y el hombre no pudo reprimir una pequeña risa.

—Es probable, sí... Generalmente en este tipo de eventos muestran autos edición limitada, y los presentes pueden ser capaces de comprar y asegurarse un ejemplar antes que el público general ¿Estarías interesada en eso, Tania?—

—Lo dije justo hoy en un directo con mis amigos... Éste tipo de autos, son cosas que aún no puedo permitirme. Solo armar el Camaro me llevó meses, un Skyline sería... Algo platónico.—

—¿Y si yo te regalo uno?—Charles llamó su atención, pero también lo miraron los restantes.

—Ah, si. Es comparable al regalo de Navidad que te di.—la chica alzó las cejas.

—¡Oye! No menosprecies tu regalo. A mi me encantó.—

—¿Qué le regalaste?—Lando intervino—. No sabía de eso.—

—No tienes porqué saberlo todo, Norris.—Charles le sonrió.

—Le regalé una motocicleta a escala... La que usamos en Argentina para pasear.—Tania respondió antes de que empezaran los problemas.

—Serás una buena participante para el santa secreto...—

—Un regalo tiene que ser especial, o al menos eso creo.—miró a Charles—. Asi que no quiero un auto de 3 millones, gracias... Regálame uno pequeño, para poner en mis estantes del estudio.—

—Tu estudio ya esta lleno de cosas, no necesita más autos de colores.—

—Eso que no viste los que me compré aquí en Japón...—el chico sonrió.

Siguieron cenando en un tenso ambiente, uno que por suerte el periodista no terminó de comprender. Hasta que anunciaron que en unos minutos se habilitaría la sala contigua.

—Te ves emocionada.—Lando miró con una pequeña sonrisa a la mujer a su lado, quién revisaba su celular a cada rato, intentando encontrar alguna novedad del evento.

—Bastante emocionada, si.—la chica sonrió apenas—. Si de verdad se trata de un nuevo modelo... Dios.—Lando notó su pequeño ataque de emoción. Adoraba cuando los tenia—. Nunca he asistido a un evento así, y poder verlo antes que mucha gente... es emocionante.—

—Bueno, no muchos en este lugar aprecian tanto los autos como tú. Eso es seguro.—descansó el mentón en la palma de su mano, mirándola con cierta fascinación.

—... ¿Dónde está Charles?—

—A nadie le importa, estamos charlando aquí.—

—Si ese idiota dice algo que no debe...—

—No te preocupes por él. Tú misma lo dijiste, estabas esperando este evento ¿no? Disfrútalo... Que yo disfruto que tú lo disfrutes.—la chica sonrió.

—Eres una idiota.—

—... lamento haber venido de repente. Porque si, vine por ti... Al menos tendría que haberte consultado.—

—No lo hiciste porque sabías que te diría que no.—sonrió apenas.

—¿Vas a bloquearme?—

—Obvio.—

—¿hay algo que puedo hacer para que no lo hagas?—

—¿Qué te importa si te bloqueo o no? Si tampoco me envías mensajes.—

—Bueno, espero que tú me lo mandes a mí.—

—Eso no sucederá.—

—No lo sé... Puede que algún dia necesites un duo en Overwatch...—

—Tengo fácil... 3 compañeros mejores que tú, Lando.—

—Auch...—

Una voz en off anunció que ya empezaría la exposición, que debían acercarse al salón. Y en cuanto Tania vio el Skyline en el centro del salón, su rostro se iluminó.
