Her whole life, Elphaba had never truly experienced any form of unconditional love. From her father, she received outright disdain. She was an obligation—an unwanted obligation. How many times had she wished she could transform her skin so that he would look at her with something other than disgust? And when she realized that she couldn’t change the way she looked, she had thrown herself into her studies, hoping that perhaps if she worked hard enough, he would one day be proud of her. And if he was proud of her, others would admire her instead of point at her, and Nessa wouldn’t feel so embarrassed to be around her.

None of those things had come to pass. But she had found someone who did care, who saw her differently than everyone else did, and certainly thought more of her than she did of herself. She smiled when Galinda expressed how distressed the way she treated herself made her. “I will try to be kinder from now on.”  she promised, her smile growing at her words. “And what do you see?” she asked lightly, pushing her glasses back up her nose.

Her eyes blinked back unshed tears, and her heart swelled when she vowed she would be with her. Nodding, she offered her a gentle kiss, taking Galinda’s face in her hands. “I…I love you.”

there were no hints of relenting. the blonde’s jaw was clenched, her gaze laced with vivid stubbornness. “please. come on!” she begged. “please.” twice. “please.” a third. “please, please, please, pleaseee.” she dragged the last syllable out with a huff.

glinda continued her pleadings, dramatically pulling on their sleeve with a theatrical sigh. “please?”

she did not wait for an answer this time. she grasped their shoulders, directing them towards her vanity.

"Hm. So this is Universe 12. How quaint." She simply stated. "Definitely not lacking on the strength department, but definitely still has yet to impress me." Still, she did find annoyance that some of the treasures weren't recalled to her. She has at least five now. The other two are definitely still here.

"Bruteforce it is." And such, with a wave of a hand, she would rip through different layers of dimensions, if not to single out the energy signatures of the treasures that are yet to return to her.

Charlie was curious- she swore she's seen this woman before, a friend of Angel or Alastor, maybe? With how busy she's been with her own stuff, she wasn't so sure.

Nevertheless, it's not like the demon princess has formally presented herself to the other, so maybe it was about time. Besides, didn't the woman look too much like a...human? That caught her attention even more so, make her heart skip a beat, even.

"Hello! Can I help you with something? I swear it's not the first time I see you, but I thought it was about time I presented myself to you."

[silentbutsadistic]

"You look like a refined woman who enjoys a nice tea party. Quite exquisite taste in fashion as well. It's so difficult to find someone polished in a place like this." Remilia is currently on visit to Hell, but has decided to abandon her royal chaperone for a bit and explore with her human servant guarding her.

"You've sparked my curiosity, would you mind telling me your name?"

One of Neo's ears twitched when hearing the voice of the vampire. At first, she didn't know if she was referring to her, but all in all, she was the only one with some class around this neighborhood.

Cannibal Town was another story.

The small fallen angel raised an eyebrow once facing Remilia better, eyeing the other from top to bottom, and letting her wings flap a few times, specially as she took notice of...the...human? That accompanied her.

This felt so out of place for some reason...

After narrowing her eyes a little, she then smiled, and let out a soft hum before offering the vampire a business card that now rested between index and middle fingers.

In this one, 'Neo' could be read. And just right under her name, 'Assassin', her profession. If the vampire was to turn it around, she would also find her phone number...or at least one phone number, and the address.

Rayquaza winced after receiving such a powerful attack, even despite having a shield up. Glaring at the Meloetta, it was going to keep going.

Rayquaza used Hurricane on Azumarill! Rayquaza missed! Rayquaza used Hurricane on Sylveon! Rayquaza missed! Rayquaza used Hurricane on Pyrrha! It's super effective! Pyrrha is confused! Rayquaza used Outrage on Heidi!

"Hold on, Pyrrha. I got you!"

Kathy used a healing cheer! The whole team recovered! Sylveon snapped out of her confusion! Pyrrha snapped out of her confusion!

"Thanks, Kat. Feel much better now."

Pyrrha used Triple Axel! 1! Critical hit! It's super effective! 2! It's super effective! 3! It's super effective! Hit three times!

"You're gonna pay for that, Rayquaza."

Heidi's noticed that Rayquaza has been only using Hurricane for Flying coverage. If that's the case, then Mist Ball was the best decision to make.

Heidi used Mist Ball!

Heidi started feeling a surge in power. Seems like she was ready to take thing up a notch next turn.

One of them changed forms, and with Relic Song! She must be a human form of Meloetta!

Her attention went right back to her Pokemon. Looked to be doing fine, but most certainly close to fainting. "Don't worry, you'll get back up and more healthy again real quick!"

Her Azumarill nodded; knowing what Celeste planned to do next. And one step closer to getting the charge needed.

Usagiko used Play Rough!

It's super effective!

Usagiko restored a little HP using her Shell Bell!

The Pokemon looked much better; even with the shield being up!

bweirdoctober day one: fav oc

i haven't drawn her in literal years, but my beautiful baby rae <3

she used to be my persona, but there was a stint where i humanized her and made her a black woman and i, as a white man, didn't want to claim that energy lmao

i also haven't done a month-long challenge in.. uh.. ever! i think! very happy to do it this year! i'm gonna try and stay on it, but things happen. i'll at least do the mandatory days haha

more info about her under the cut:

rae! yay!

in her universe, the dying gods made 5 "avatars" of their elements to rule their subjects. rae and her siblings are those elements, with rae representing the stars above, her older brother alifer representing water, evangeline and fire (later stone and metal), and twins casimir and circe with nature and the skies respectively

they have a big war eventually, evangeline has her emo arc, and all of the siblings stop talking to each other and rule their own separate kingdoms

one day, rae just leaves her kingdom and never returns, leaving her subjects floundering while she skips off to do whatever, and that whatever ends up getting her put in hibernation for another thousand years or so

she wakes up to a kid finding her and she takes on a motherly role to him, then she collects two more kids and they become a little adventuring party. her starness makes her really good at prophecy and magic in general so she teaches these 3 kids (now young adults by the time they're all together) magic. yaay cool family unit

the big main character of her universe is a fire sprite named cyl who becomes the "new rae" aka head of the party and kind of leader of another kingdom with the rest of the group

not super important to her backstory, but rae also has endless toxic(? not as toxic as it could be, depends on when we're talking) yuri with a person named friday who keeps getting reincarnated and they find each other in every lifetime, they're cute and i love them and eventually i'll draw them together again (need to ask friday's creator if she has a new design.. i'll do that eventually)

um! ask questions if you want? she's been my main oc since about 2017 so i've been cooking her for a long while

@frozcnlight gets a Xmas Starter from Chu Chu ~

"...Miran". He glanced around the room one more time, before back at his wife, as though wondering if she could see the same as he was. The twins were barely crawling at the moment, Rai was simply grateful just to have a roof over his head and Strelitzia certainly wasn't expecting the entirety of Santa's Grotto to appear under the tree...yet that was what seemed to have ended up happening here. "...do you think that maybe, just maybe, we might have got a little carried away?". He couldn't put all the blame on her - he had gone a little overboard for the twins, since it was their first Christmas and all - and then there was all the new clothing for Rai since he'd barely anything to his name before Miran took him in...but still. "How are we even going to wrap all this...how have you kept all this hidden...you sure your ability isn't something like dimension storage...?"

[bouquet-of-muses]

"Hey, Sucy. Are you crying?"

(From Adrien)

sniff "...W-What if I am?" She's clearly trying to be guarded.

@frozcnlight asked for a Xmas Starter [X]

"When it got all dark and cold like this, we'd often make offerings to the Golden Witch, praying for warmth and shelter before the winter settled in", Rai explained as he sat on the ground helping Strelitzia untangle some of the fairy lights, at the same time as helping Miran to make sure the twins weren't getting into too much trouble while she overlooked the hotel's decorations - though so far, the most to happen was Eiji trying to eat some of the tinsel. "Did she listen?", Strelitzia asked, frowning as she struggled with one of the more stubborn sections, "I've never really heard you talk about it before now." "Hmm, the lights just reminded me of the candles we used to light...I had a friend who'd go around the entire temple, making sure everyone had their own light...I wonder how he is now". Sighing lightly, he climbed to his feet, picking up the untangled lights he'd been working on, carefully handing them up to Miran, "This place is always so warm and cosy though - so I guess such traditions aren't needed here".

"You've already been so helpful for me - I'm sorry that your experience wasn't quite as expected", he gave a weak laugh as he finished placing the last of the broken china in the trash, glancing around the kitchen once more, double checking that there wasn't anything left behind that could injure any of the kitchen staff when they returned tomorrow. He was just lucky that this was one of the rare days that the manager hadn't been in - it'd allow him to take the blame for all of this. It'd been an accident, and in his eyes, mainly his fault too. It was near the end of the day, and he'd allowed for the dishes to build a little too high, only for this girl beside him to suddenly appear by his side, scaring him enough that he'd knocked into the counter and caused the dishes to scattered across the kitchen floor - which had made more than enough noise to chase off whoever happened to have scared her enough to make her come around the back in the first place.

"Anyway, I would like to help you. You seemed panicked...before I managed to panic you more, I mean", he smiled, but soon a look of concerned formed instead, "Are you okay?".

[Emergency Meeting] A Prophet

Mai sat with Heidi in the Hall of Origin sipping tea. Now that Heidi had received the basics of Mai's appearance here, the danger and threat was something that they needed to loop other worlds into. "So, Heidi? You mentioned that you want for me to tell another world of the dangers of those that are coming. However, I cannot leave this world for now, as I may be needed back home. How would I be able to do that?"

"Oh, don't worry." Heidi reassured her. "We only need to warn a Yukin from that other world, and, while I'd prefer not to get him involved considering what he's dealing with, it's important that he knows. As for how? Well, Yukin's the type to find us eventually."

"...Yukin...." the name sent shivers down her spine. It's difficult separating the versions of these individuals that she knows and the ones that are in this world. "Why would you want him involved? Is he not the World Devourer in your world?"

"I'm sorry. Are you implying that he IS in your world? No no no hold that thought RIGHT NOW." No way she's about to take psychic damage without Yukin here. She's already getting Ghost to text Lauren to get back here, but as for her verbal speech, she was just going to turn around and call out for him as if he's downstairs. "Yukin! You need to hear this. There's some really important stuff that we need to talk to you about--"

Oh, this was going to be a day. Though, he did say call for him if she needs anything, after all.

"You do know this is a waste of time, making me change form for no apparent reason, right?" Aura deadpanned. Sure, the energy upkeep on this form is already completely nil due to her experience on it, but still. "Unless you want a you sized hole on the ground, then I can definitely see why you want me to be on this state."

"Heeeey, dad!" With a small smile, the demon princess approached the other, holding her hands close to her chest.

"Now that I at least seemed to change some things around here- do you plan on visiting more?" After all, the blonde always went out of her way to change people and improve their situation, yet...it was about time she also tried to fix her own relationships with her parents.

Or at the very least, with Lucifer.

"It would be a pity if after all the effort we...uhm...fell so silent to each other like before." She was looking elsewhere, perhaps awkward? And biting her tongue to not mention how much she actually missed her mother, as well.

[silentbutsadistic]

˜”*°•.˜”*°• Me, Myself and I •°*”˜.•°*”˜

She went out to train. Isolated, and for the moment? All alone in a hole that no other demons had interest to go to.

She sold her soul so no one else could have it. She sold her soul for protection, but not in exchange for nothing.

'I don't want a power that will be a simple renting of what you already have.'

She said back in the day to Lucifer, with whom she negotiated.

'I want something that will feel like myself. Powers that will be the manifestation of my very soul.'

And that's what she got.

She was an illusionist. Her powers were born from her imagination and her loneliness. The power to create her own fantasies- the one to fabricate lies.

She was face to face with a mirror, that beautiful reflecting surface that, until not long ago, was the root of her torment -and at the same time a blessing- because of her mind and the hallucinations she suffered from.

She would start with something easy.

[Maniac - Cover by DIAMANTE]

✨ Just a steel town girl on a Saturday night Lookin' for the fight of her life In the real-time world no one sees her at all They all say she's crazy ~♪ ✨

Neo has always had hidden talent. She learnt fast. She had a good memory. Attentive to detail. Her height had proven to be an advantage to go unnoticed, and her silence, even if a disadvantage in the day to day, turned out to be another kind of weapon.

Once she stood in place and intently gazed at her own reflection, in front of her, the fallen angel would smile for herself, and not long after blinking once, her body got covered from bottom to top by a pink glow and small pieces of broken glass.

After being fully covered, the appearances she could see in the mirror weren't herself. They shifted through various people she's seen around enough.

Lute, Alastor, Vaggie, Lucifer...the Princess of Hell herself.

She stopped to look at herself while still wearing the appearance of this last one, smiling in a very playful and sadistic manner, very Neo.

Definitely not something that fit Charlie too much.

She shifted through a few more appearances. People from the hotel. People she met in the last weeks...who she was in the past before she was abandoned here.

After letting a soft sigh escape her lips, she went back to be herself and let both of her hands rest against her hips. That was easy. Changing felt almost natural to her. The sensation was really close to when she tried to modify her dreams, but now this was part of reality, and even with that, still a simple illusion.

She tilted her head to look to the side, and there she was, her other self standing with her, resting on the assassin's shoulder a bit. That side of her conscience that would've been making her company for many years. That who would've appeared to her in the mirror, and that now could have a physical form thanks to her new powers.

Neo and Neo. Her and herself.

She let herself fall against the arms of her other self and this one caught her, before the both of them would start to dance in synchronization to the music that the mute left playing in the background.

As she moved around the basement that was practically empty, the mute let her powers manifest to decorate the room with more illusions.

Lights, colors, perfect and clean walls and a floor completely covered by an elegant rug. In the center of the room, a large and long table, filled with teacups, dishes...tea, cookies and other sweets, and empty chairs.

But she didn't stop her dance, she continued, now around the table before her other self held her by the lower side of her back; the original one flexing herself rather dramatically after.

That unmistakable pink glow kept spreading through the basement, giving life to those lies who would soon materialize in the form of the people she's been turning into a minute ago.

Around the table, they sat down, each of them with their own personalities and their own voice. At first glance, as if they had their own conscience.

L̸̤̚i̸̝͠e̷̝͑s̵̪̃.̶̯͛

She wanted to see how many she could create at the same time. How many people and how many clones she could make until she was really exhausted. Testing her limits and pushing herself to the hardest limit she could give herself.

Her heart was beating as she moved around the basement with grace, dodging every new decoration that her imagination materialized, but never stopping the dance with herself.

The table was full, the voices almost drowned the music. One, two, three, four...she could count up to twenty people. And she was sweating. Maybe mental fatigue, worse than those physical trainings that she was so used to.

Once she twirled around the table a few times, she stopped in front of the chairs on one of the ends of this one, letting her other self hug her from behind and let her chin rest against her shoulder.

After one of her gloved hands moved up to caress the side of her clone's face, Neo let out a soft chuckle and felt her throat closing, before she stomped on the floor with one of her paws and let her powers manifest a bunch of Jabberwalkers.

One, two, three...she could count up to six.

Twenty people, six of her own monsters. And this was only making a small effort. Like running around the racing track three or four times.

After observing her own tea party, her other self stopped hugging her so she could go, and, with a small hop, Neo got on top of the table and started to dodge with skill all those little things that decorated the surface.

The Mad Hatter was condemned to an eternal tea party for 'killing Time' in a concert for the Queen of Hearts. Neo would enjoy her eternal tea party for being condemned for 'killing the Time' of her superiors years ago.

Once she got to the center of the table, the assassin manifested her weapon in hand, and after looking at all her 'guests' for a moment, she made all of them change their appearance so they would look like herself.

To who she was now.

Obediently, the twenty copies stood up, and a second after, the real Neo started to rush towards the clones with all her strength, one after the other, swinging the parasol with mastery as if it was some kind of club, but from time to time, also elegantly and with a hand behind her back.

Maybe another person would've been incapable of 'killing themselves' from beating themselves to death. Twenty times. With reactions as normal as if they would've been real.

Her illusions could take a beating. Now laying on the floor, bloodied in their own golden blood after having endured the original's beating, and not long after, Neo started to kill them for good, unsheathing the hidden blade of her parasol to do so.

Every time she impaled one of them with her sword, these finally disappeared the same way they appeared at first- broken in a million pieces of pink glass until they disappeared completely, as if the wind had blown away the dust left behind.

Engrossed in her own illusion, the fallen angel would end up with cleaning the whole room with her murders, letting herself fall on her knees on the floor before she started laughing.

The moment that another drop of exhaustion slipped from her forehead to one of her cheeks, the mute snapped her fingers and everything around her started to disappear.

L̸̤̚i̸̝͠e̷̝͑s̵̪̃.̶̯͛

No more decorations, or lights, not even her monsters or the eternal tea party. Not even her other self.

Only Neo and the lies that she was now capable of fabricating.

@icicle-dragon asked for a Xmas Starter

"Do they like cute things?". They'd been sitting inside the library for a while now, discussing what presents they could get for others, while waiting on Albedo to finish whatever it was that he'd came here to do in the first place. He'd tried to explain about some type of experiment, but Klee hadn't been paying too much attention. Now, she had paper littering their table, drawing a few new designs of jumpy dumpty. "Would they like one of these?"
