A younger / teenage Bruce, newly captured by Mordor Orc scouts.

Despite leaving from Mordor in his main story, Bruce originally hails from the wild Olog population in southern Greenwood / Mirkwood, hence his anatomical differences (habit of walking on all fours, sharper incisors, claws instead of nails, etc.).

He was captured at a young age, brought to Mordor, and forced into the fighting pits for food.

Role swap au rambling:

The crash was an accident, Vash still gave Nai the codes, Nai was going to, but hesitated at the last second. Something went wrong and they crashed anyway

Vash blamed Nai anyway, even if he insisted he didn't do it. They had a huge argument over it and Vash ran away.

A lot of his childhood goes the same as canon, actually. The main diferences being Nai isnt the bad guy here and just kind did his own thing IG and

Vash can't handle his trauma.

Vash turns 'bad guy' because his psyche just...snaps. Maybe theres a trigger, maybe not, but one day he decides he cant take it, humans dont deserve plants if they cant treat his sisters right. He takes things into his own hands.

So he starts taking them. He never directly harms a human, not unless pushed to, like if they threaten his life, shoot to kill first but;

Neither does he show care or remose to the state he's leaving them in by taking away their Plants. He reasons they'd be without one soon either way, since they're killing her. At least hes saving one life here. The important one. His sister could go on to help another town, one that will treat her better. The people here have proven beyond saving.

And that's another thing. If a town can prove to him they'll respect and look after a plant. He'll leave her there, help her heal if he needs to and keeps tabs on them, ready to take her away if they fail, but he doesn't just take perfectly healthy plants for no reason. He only takes the one already sick, dying from mistreatment.

Vash also quickly started to come across and amass 'followers'. People who saw him as some avenging angel giving out divine punishment. People who saw Vash and the Plants as divine beings, angels, deities even.

He never stopped them from worshiping him, pays little attention to what the cult does in his name to random people, as long as they do what he asks when he asks it of them.

He even has a little fun playing into it, letting himself look the part by presenting his plant nature far closer to the surface, wings and petals on constant display, his markings always visible and pulsing with energy. He wears very little if any clothes, though keeps a habit of using some of the smaller pairs of wings to keep his modesty for the most part.

He's kind in his cruelty. Gentle, even apologetic. He's never cross with the people he takes plants from, just acts sad and disapointed as he dooms them to starve.

Survival of the fittest, he remembers Rem teaching them. How ecosystems could only thrive in harmony. Isn't that all he's doing? Trying to advocate for that symbiotic peace?

Chase, Nevada

Small town off route 375 in Nevada, right by Groome Road, which leads directly to the East Gate of Nellis Test & Training Range - Area 51

Situated between Rachel & Crystal Springs - closer to Crystal Springs

Ex-trading post turned ranch land

Population is less than 1500 people

Other than ranching, Chase’s biggest economical pull is alien tourism, due to proximity to Area 51

Most residents either live in single-floor, suburb-type houses or trailers & double-wides. There are only a couple of apartment blocks in the town, just off the main street that runs through the centre of the town

Amenities

The Steer - The oldest bar in Chase, caters almost exclusively to the ranchers & older locals, located toward the back of the town, away from the highway

The Burning Lizard - A dive bar/club with a biker vibe due to being close to the truck stop & highway. Has live music on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights.

Ripley’s - An alien-themed bar and grill that pulls in the tourists, situated between the gas station and the trailer park, on the strip right next to the highway

Allie’s Truckstop - An all-night diner on the strip, attached to the gas station and local garage. Has a childrens play area out back with a spaceship-shaped jungle gym

Chase Gas and Gulp - Gas station that doubles up as a tourist information place & gift shop

Chase Autorepair - Garage attached to the gas station and truckstop

Chase Sundown Motel - On the strip by the truckstop, a little on the cheap side but not a total roach trap

Red Sands Trailer Park - A locals-only trailer park at the end of the main strip - where Brodie lives

Chace Grocery & Supply - not anything close to a Walmart but carries a decent range of food & other items - includes a meat counter, a bakery, a dairy counter & homewares department - meat and dairy are locally produced

Dave’s Hardware - Just a regular hardware store

Joy’s Curl Up and Dye - Hair salon

Chase post office - The original trading post building and one of two of the oldest structures in town

Chase Meridian Bank

Groome Road drive-in movie theatre/picnic area/rest stop

Sheriff’s Office and Chase townhall

Chase Clinic - There is no hospital in the area though. Any major medical emergencies have to be taken to Caliente - 1hr drive away

A veterinarians office - deals mostly in livestock and wildlife, but has a clinic for pets

St Matthews Church - A small, wooden chapel that is the second of the two oldest structures in the town.

An Army recruitment office

Chase public library - Small and a little outdated, but has free wifi

What if I told you that RoobrickMarine went and wrote an entire novella starring my 16th century dog couple? It's very canon-adjacent, well researched and thoughtfully put together, has inspired me a ton during these past months and it's now publicly available at AO3. I highly recommend it.

What do the reverse au version of the dead girl detectives look like?

Charlotte didn't actually dress like this when she was alive, but she has found that looking pretty helps her to manipulate when dealing with difficult people. Edith wears her croquet uniform.

If Nerdy Prudes Must Die got a muppet adaption I think Max should be the only human because it would be so funny to see a guy enact terrible violence on a bunch of puppets like the level of cartoon violence you could get to would be insane and also it would make Literal Monster really funny bc not only is Max acting like a monster, but beside the rest of the cast, who are all muppets, he'd kind of look like a monster as well

Can we get some horny headcanons for Saint?👀

You said they're big as fuck and I wanna know how he'd react to a smaller omega (fem) in the pack during his rut🤭

Hiya! I’m gonna use they/them and be vague about genitalia to preserve some of the lovely ambiguity of Saint’s vibe.

But Saint’s a virile Alpha through and through, with a pack of high-energy Omegas so they are horny. These aren’t just headcanons, these are canon canon :)

- kissing their jaw/chin instantly gets them going, esp if it’s messy. They make a noise that’s not quite a purr, not quite a growl. Not all Alphas make that noise, but Saint does. They get all narrow-eyed and relaxed, rolling their hips.

- omegas on top are their favorite position, they love watching their pack take what they need while they coo and praise them

- free use kink, esp for omegas in heat and pre-heat. They secretly love doing something else while their omega gets off, listening to them chirp and purr for attention while they have a conversation or fill out forms. Until their omega gets that’s sweet needy, demanding edge and saint gives them all the attention they could possibly handle.

- it’s a crass term that saint would never use, but “bitching” another alpha is a secret fantasy. They’re a bit ashamed of it, so they only ever really use it as fantasy material during pre-rut and rut, when their inhibitions are lower.

- their scent glands aren’t actually as sensitive as one might expect (due to applying neutralizer so often) so biting down on it, even without drawing blood, will have them moaning and getting close. Being a little rough with them in general is hot, they love scratches and bites and bruises, it’s what they’re built for

- soft dom. Loves to praise. Loves to gently correct. Coos and churrs and purrs while you’re falling apart, holding you close while you cling and murmuring sweet filth in your ear, subharmonics in every word. “I know, I know. It’s a lot but you’re taking it all so well. I knew you would, sweet omega. You can cry if you need to, I know you’re overwhelmed.”

something something exploring digimon au with @millionsnife more

Compared to Nai and Culumon, Vash thinks he and Labramon suit eachother pretty well. She's soft and cute and fluffy. She's gentle when she plays with Culumon, kind of motherly to the twins.

Until the first time she fights to protect Vash.

In a fight, Labramon is nothing short of vicious, borderline vindictive with how feicerly she defends him and Nai, ripping into other digimon with fang and claw.

The first time she digivolves into Dobermon, Vash genuinly thinks somethings gone wrong. That Vash did something wrong, or it was Nai's influence with Culumon that changed her

She's so diferent. Big and intimidating, quite frankly a little scary to Vash initially.

He quickly learns and accepts it as more of a manifestation of the strength of his drive to protect than anything sinister, thought he's still convinced Nai had something to do with it, conciously or not.

If we went into crests, I feel like Vash might have Love or Hope.

His heart is so big, love for his family, his digimon, his friends, even random strangers get a tonned down taste of his love.

But at the same time he's always full of so much hope, even when things look bad, if anyone is clinging onto that last tiny spark of optimisim and hope it's Vash.

Maybe he even has both ala 02

Midnight Moon Books & Brew

Midnight Moon is an occult bookstore and coffee shop owned and managed by Lachlan’s son, Dylan, as a front for the family’s genuine business that caters exclusively to non-humans, as the store itself just looks like any other mortal new-age/oddities-themed store.

Dylan lives in the apartment above, though the apartment is not technically part of the human world, nor is it fully in the fae realm. It sits in the space between, and Dylan keeps an active portal to the fae Otherworld on the premises so that he, his family and any others known to them can use it to come and go between worlds as they please.

The shop also exists as a sort of portal in a similar way to Howl’s moving castle in that it can be accessed from multiple locations. Of course, this is not noticed in any way by human customers, but non-humans will usually recognise it for what it is because the place has so many spells and charms on it to keep it off the radar of hunters.

hybrid blade who is leashed in public, always. it's a rare occurrence to go out and take him with you (as he, a tall, brooding wolf hybrid becomes quite the spectacle). he doesn't fight you when you hook the leash in the ring of his collar with shaking hands. you see a flash of the tag, his name on the front, your name and contact information on the back. the metal is scratched up from how often blade fidgets with it, whether it's on or off of his neck.

however obedient blade is in private, he is a menace in public. he looms over you, lingering a step behind you, orbiting you with each step. he growls when anyone looks at you for too long. you don't need to hold the leash tight, but you wind it around your palm anyways. you worry the leather of it. you see the look blade garners, you see the looks he gives bystanders to your relationship. venemous and angry, even at a distance. god forbid they come within six feet of you.

these jaunts are kept short for your own sake.

by the time you're home, you're worn and stress from having to gently cow blade's instinct. knowing when to click your tongue when he growls, flinching when he bares his teeth at you. you end up with bruises on your wrist and waist from how he likes to touch and keep you close. it's too much, but what could you do about it? how are you to stop a wolf who has decided that you are to be the treat within his jaws at will?

blade always keeps you in bed after an outing. you're always-- so tired. blade says you smell that way. he also makes a few other barbed comments about your scent. you don't smell like you-- you smell like the stores you wandered in. the checkout clerk who brushed her fingers against yours when you handed her coins to pay for pastries and drinks for you and blade. you smell like the perfume of a well-dressed man who eyed you for too long, and walked a little too close.

blade can't have that. you know this.

he'll keep you in bed, yours or his, until he decides you smell enough like home again. his home.
