#war diary ig???

I don't really know what to say. This morning I got the news that six of the hostages were found dead, recently shot. I know the family of one of them, and they are the bravest and most resilient people I know. They gave me, and, well, everyone hope that their son would be back. I fully believed he would. Everyone did. I guess we just expected him to turn up one day at synagogue after all this time.
There are a few thoughts going through my head right now. Most of them start with the word "why", like,
Why did a 23 year old spend 11 out of the 12 months of his 23rd year in a tunnel?
Why do baby-murdering, hostage-taking, house-burning militias live two hours away from my house?
and
Why do I, an 18 year old, fresh out of highschool, know three dead people, ranging in ages from 19 to 32?
Some of them start with the words "what", like
What are they going to do now?
What awful, awful heartbreak am I going to hear about next?
and
What the fuck?

back at it again with a massive combination plotting / starter call !!! very excited to throw characters into this fantasy medieval nightmare time we created. i just love this vibe so much and i can't wait to see how everyone interprets things and makes their own spin on things -- anyways before i keep rambling , quick housekeeping for my call + threads ; please like for plotting, and reply for starters. each character will be capped at FOUR THREADS, and THREE PER WRITER. i may adjust this depending on out of fandom requests and plotted starters. if you do not plot with me and just request, i'll dm you just for quick ideas. you gotta specify who you want starters from or i'm deadass ignoring you xoxo. ** please know that i am taking this opportunity to clear out a ton of threads throughout the week. so i'll be dropping things as time goes on and then when the event starts, i'll be dropping anything left over and starting fresh for post event! (lowkey going on my honeymoon right when this ends so i wont be around for post event stuff until after anyways, hence the big cleanout) but because i ramble, we're gonna stfu now and finally get to character plots !!

vesta starkos | star wars - 1 / 4
she/they pronouns - vesta thinks dc has always been this way since she arrived, and is kinda loving it. it's so much easier to get people to be afraid of her little freak vibes in this time. she's mainly a thief, but also very much trying to convince people she's a witch just cause she thinks it'd be funny to try and get burned at the stake and then be able to escape :)) ➳ potential plots ; alright who's joining their cult? , people who are intrigued or put off from their awful vibes, someone who catches them stealing
starters ; astrid deetz ( cap )
victoria sutherland | twilight - 1 / 4
she/her pronouns - victoria showing up in dc, seeing the time period is exactly the same as when she was turned : i'm back in the fucking building!!! yeah, even though she's unaware, she also has no idea dc has been any different and man does she hate it. right now she's basically hiding in the woods, but if she can't find food from animals, she is debating just.. being a harlot to lure a meal to her ➳ potential plots ; whoever's getting her her memories back, someone she can drink from, a monster hunter who finds her in the woods
starters ; rosamund du prix ( cassie )
violet sorrengail | fourth wing - 1 / 4
she/her pronouns - violet is currently fully unaware, but once she wakes up here in this timeline of dc, her memories are going to smack right back into her. you can't exactly be a dragon rider and see a dragon and not immediately get vibe checked. she'll know dc is different, and is going to be spending her time trying to find her friends, and also attempt to teach people about dragons before they become ash.. will probably fall back into a scribe roll if she ever finds time for a job. ➳ potential plots ; someone she stops from getting fucking eaten by a dragon, other scribes, people who need help learning how to fight, just anyone confused and needing advice on creatures/procedures here in this time.
starters ; xaden riorson ( kasey )

20 questions for fic writers!
many many thanks to @garglyswoof for tagging m
How many works do you have on ao3? 63. i need to calm down.
What's your total ao3 word count? 747 502. i need to calm down.
What fandoms do you write for? the vampire diaries, shadow & bone, avatar: the last airbender, star wars, marvel. also, that one suez canal x ever given fic, and that one goncharov fic.
Top five fics by kudos: A Queen's Gamble (you know it's an old one if the title is capitalised lmao), make them bow., the fate makes for a lousy poet., where the heart moves the stones, nyctophilia.
Do you respond to comments? i try. i am not very good at it, but every now and then i sit down, crack my knuckles, and go about emptying my poor inbox.
What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? the end. is like ... the only fic i ever wrote that ended unhappily.
What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? see above, lol, literally everything else. i'm a wuss.
Do you get hate on fics? i mean ... not really? i would mostly classify the rude things i got as entitlement rather than hate. the impression i usually got was that those people liked my writing style, or the plot, or characterisation, or whatever--there was just one thing or several that they wanted to happen differently, and they felt the need to tell me that.
Do you write smut? looooooo, no, my ace ass would probably spontaneously combust.
Craziest crossover: i don't suppose i've ever written an actual crossover, but today i put dracula-the-historical-figure into the vampire diaries universe, so ....
Have you ever had a fic stolen? ... maybe? okay, strap yourselves: a few years ago someone asked if they could translate a fic of mine into spanish and post it on wattpad, and i said yes. (THIS is one of the reasons why i don't allow translations anywhere but ao3 anymore). they did, and they sent me the link. i linked the translation to my fic, the usual. then, a lot later, i actually went to check their post, and i realised that i wasn't credited though the person said they would. yaaaaay.
Have you ever had a fic translated? well, other than the fiasco up there, the incredible @winterandmistletoe, who made the edit that graces the beginning of make them bow., has two chapters of the russian translation of that fic up on ao3. there's also been an offer to translate The Manifesto of a Last Love into russian, but that one hasn't been posted yet.
Have you ever co-written a fic before? i have not! and honestly, i don't think i'd be very good at it. i'm a bit of a tyrant, so in an effort NOT to be perceived as such i'd probably be super lenient of whatever the other people came up with even if i didn't necessarily like it. i'm pretty particular in my tastes, and one of the things i love about writing fic is that i have nobody but myself to answer to.
All time favorite ship? ehhhhh, nooo, i can't choose between my children!
What's a wip you want to finish but doubt you ever will? considering that tvd has had me in its claws for two years now, it feels unlikely i'll ever go back to my wips in other fandoms. you never know of course, but it feels that way. i mean. those unfinished wips don't exactly haunt me, but sometimes i remember them and feel awful about it, lmao.
What are your writing strengths? i'm told i do dialogue and humour well!
What are your writing weaknesses? ughhhhh probably action? it's so hard. oh! and my tendency to describe how a character's eyes look in every other sentence.
Thoughts on dialogue in another language? SO fun fact that dracula fic that i posted today? the one where half the dialogue is in french? i had originally written it all IN FRENCH, and then decided to take mercy on my readers and just put the english translation into italics. yeah. anyway, rule of thumb, ig: if the pov character understands what's being said, then english in italics (or if it's just a sentence or two the spoken language with a footnote). if they can hear individual words, then the language that's being spoken, without translation. if they hear only gibberish--maybe they're super unfamiliar with the language, maybe it's being spoken very fast or with an accent--then just 'character x says something in z'.
First fandom you wrote in? marvel, for my own peace of mind. star wars is the first one i actually posted for.
Favorite fic you've written? again, you can't ask me to pick between my children.

D-1!!!!!
instagram
LambCat posting this on her twitter and IG account, a preview video of the might be the very final part of the CPC story
Buckle up!
One thing to say is, thanks a lot to @saemi-the-dreamer as the news that CPC might have 3 fp
Whatever that's the case or not, I really wish all the best for LambCat - even if not having 3 fp as making those ep as buffer is okay too!!!
So, based on the preview video - which I have hardtime to screenshootings, we have several characters in the preview as the following:
First image is Lorena, who's the shoes is? Find out next time in the CPC
Second image is Lance, bro get first aid first?
Third is Blaine... Bro bro - who's you gonna stab?
Fourth is Gwen, the big bad (wolf) reveal???
Fifth is Frederick, lil bro running to the opposite direction of everyone? And aren't animals around - Maria's woodland creatures ensemble?
Sixth is Whitney, horrified with -?
Maria scene as the following actually before Gwen-Frederick-Whitney appearance, F####
We have Maria, Syrah, the Beige Princel using catapult, Jamie and Leopold as well Monika
Swish slash the nightmare apparition, Leland
What Aurelia see? One thing for sure glad that Potrait mystery finally be out!!! The content is-
This is Lilyth (Leelathae) because the reddish tint in her hair - continuation of her diary content?
The last image, the hardesr to get - Prez with shining eyes in yellow and sweatdropped a lot
I putting the preview image again, as the conclusion - and what we know so far...
Leland smiling creepily is similar to the scene at ep 133 where he imagining 'everyone' as his pawns
Frederick shocked, and you noticed that he's the only male character in the good side
Lorena ready for war, LITERALLY
Maria sitting to where Gwen is - with a leg of her being raised. Remember, she's on slumber induced curse but neither of her limbs raised
Prez with her sword ready to attack!
#cursed princess club#spoiler#if you found a corpse you call authorities not viralling#The corpse gotta be Leland hopefully#cpc#spoilers#Preview video#Sorry I am swearing#Instagram

everyone who is following for posting like revolutionary optimism and possible actions (canada) or other things you can do, i mostly post pretty pictures, little diary entries, and occasional anime meta. it's okay to unfollow, also mind your business abt my life..., and pls keep up with news sources such as al jazeera, the resistance news network (if you have unpacked war on terror racial anxieties about armed resistance), and journalists such as plestia, bisan, and motaz! you should be able to find their IGs and twitters relatively easy. also canadians, CPJME always has from home actions you can take, plus anti-imperial activists such as harsha walia or gada sasa. additionally, you may have ad-hoc groups or marching contingencies you can join for city-wide marches. if not, consider starting one with your friends! make a post about a lgbtq+ marching group to show up in solidarity and choose a meeting point for before and after the protest as a semi-safety plan! don't forget to mask at protests (prevent sickness and surveillance)
okay that's all from me, palestine will be free no matter what the western/zionist propaganda war is saying. we know this bcuz it's happened before. also i'm currently getting my covid and flu shots and you should too!!

tldr: ummm we never will see how strong the demigods get bc according to lore they’ll be even stronger in adulthood
aka a very long piper charmspeak ramble …… it’s come to this.
one thing my suspension of belief has worked hard day and night fighting for years is the fact that demigods in pjo attract monsters especially when young because they’re weak enough to be prey to them. fine. that’s ok. but something also that is true is that piper & leo both grew up to age 15 which even hedge mentioned was extraordinarily old already for demigods not to have been disturbed (hera’s hold on leo aside) kind of means monsters scented them to be extremely strong even w/o training or awareness, something that never even happened to any other demigod. that is ok too, they’re part of the seven whatever.
secondary to this is the fact that when demigods grow up, specially greek, they leave camp to try to live their own lives in the mortal world and can do so freely bc it’s implied they are strong enough monsters leave them alone/can fend for themselves. notably all done solo - ignoring the random crack celebs mentioned in demigod diaries. that is also fine. who cares. there are allegedly grown up/possibly elderly demigods (not legacies) in new rome. we don’t know them. ok.
EXCEPT this just opens up the door to the other implication that a demigod’s growth over time never really plateaus until much later in their years - meaning the kids in hoo now in teen years are nothing compared to their powers when they’re actual adults. and we won’t ever really see how the powers will develop.
since the seven are already above and beyond the cream of the crop in terms of abilities, what comes next has to be refinement (been a sec since reading hoo so ignore if these have been explored already lol): leo being able to control fire outside of his own body - which goes for other elemental-control types like percy with his water (do not mention bloodbending to me ummm copyright..) or jason (rip) with his lightning.
there are loads of reasons why nico & hazel within lore and also past canon can’t just cheat death but still so much within their death-related power can be pretty flexible. hazel earthbender metalbender truther btw. reyna’s power strengthening probably gets even crazier too. annabeth… love u baby girl go be megamind and be free.. frank can turn into a dragon. um that itself was crazy ig but i just can’t think of the furthering of shapeshifting so im gonna be quiet on him.
and let me SAY SOMETHINGGGGG. this is a piper mclean “joining the war on piper on the side of piper” blog. okay. but consider the fact that she CAN charm monsters and minor gods/sorceresses (medea specifically) and obviously the biggest contender being a whole titan. all before the age of 17.
i read the burning maze only ofc lol and one thing that struck me was that at that point in the narrative shes been charmspeaking for maybe 1 year?? max? and there was the one scene where she used charmspeak on 3 grown men before they went on caligula’s boats and she sort of half-fainted because she wasn’t used to doing that many people. and additionally this is a sometime after gaea. so where is the meter of growth here?
her power is not an elemental one (percy, leo, nico) or self-affected (frank, annabeth). funnily enough it might be closer to reyna, whose powers affect other people (can she power up herself??) and maybe a magical one that’s pretty freestyle like hypnos/hecate. but those seem to have guidelines and levels of known power too.
this is all coming from me just having reread the very first scene in mark of athena where piper was practicing her words to the roman’s and annabeth, just overhearing a little, felt compelled already. piper can control her power/enhance it, but isn’t shown in canon to even think if it affects others in her vicinity. also maybe doesn’t even know the depth of the effect.
past the age of 18, when a greek demigod is implied to move out bc they’re strong enough already not to need protection, piper would have evolved her charmspeak past all her past feats already. with the others, their limits seem pretty clear. hers isn’t?
here are the rules i feel like she has in canon: she can’t command inanimate objects or things/beings that can’t hear her period. huge crowds like the scene in new rome (brick jason scene) were difficult to control. but again, she can compel more than three mortals as of the maze book. so if with age she could charmspeak to a larger masses that would be pretty believable, even if difficult. say that she can’t make someone do something out of their own power, like asking a mortal to do a demigod feat. it still leaves a lot of open room there.
so even theoretically, she can touch a lot of realms of power here, not even in the vaguer way a hecate kid might. can she compel river gods/naiads into moving water for her? other elements with spiritual reps? can she ask the dead to come back to life? is that even in her scope? she wouldn’t do any of these things obviously, since it flies into a moral panic a little. can she ask someone to go mad and crazy and they will? i just said she couldn’t do inanimate objects, but what if that only excluded inorganic matter? can she ask a seed to sprout?
i say ask but she never has to ask. she just needs to speak. now imagine that at her peak ability.
if she can barely control charmspeak slipping out when she was a teen in the hoo books, I genuinely don’t know how she can walk around as an adult without anyone hanging onto every single word she says. or maybe bc she’s older she can control it much better, but it still implies refinement on a scale she never grasped canonically.
ignoring the greco-roman tragedy that is the tlh trio, writing her out of the narrative (and concurrently out of the world of demigods) like riordan did is kinda crazy because you’re just gonna let a charmspeaker run around like that?? haven’t you watched gen v….. oh wait.
i don’t want a time skip in riordan’s 84th random ass spin-off series that’s not what im saying at all.. I just want to speculate on my own.
piper is lucky enough to be surrounded with masses of people who love her, so she isn’t ever in danger of ever becoming an antagonist. remember how even hazel gets mad at jason’s coffin when he dies and “leaves piper”? or annabeth’s first thought when jason dies is how sad she is for piper. mellie & hedge also choose to move with her. the list goes on. she is a top priority.
what really strikes me in how we last see piper is that she has a support system enough to be satiated to never need to come back again to the demigod world. jason got cremated in new rome and she wasn’t at the funeral. leo is off god knows where. she’s close with annabeth, but they don’t have to be at either camps to be close.
what im getting at here is how much of piper’s relationships with people and their protectiveness over her is her power spilling out versus real connection. that is so nasty of me to bring up ofc bc piper is theeee girl and all but imagining the fallout of her realizing something to the effect of her influencing people very close to her without her knowing.. she could retreat further. that’s fully speculation though. no need to panic..
conclusion: piper’s powers hadn’t reached its peak in canon and may never have a real cap to her abilities unless there’s extensive trial and error well into her adulthood. no matter the outcome, she may not even want anything to do with the demigod world anyway.
disclaimer: mentioned some canonical rules here but also haven’t reread the entire hoo series in many many years I might be offbeat and wrong. ooopssss..
sorry if u read all this I can’t give you your time back. i am writing something abt this though. or sorry again if that turns out to be a lie cuz I don’t post it. well.
#hoo#piper mclean#IM NOT FREE FROM THE HOO CHOKEHOLD it’s been over a month… but I need to get it off my chesttttt#I feel like a buzzing bee in hyper speed…..#long post 9283

hey mak! hope you're having a good day! for the asks: 1, 27, 51 pls and thank you!
hi sary!!! i hope you're doing well <3
(from this list)
Do you prefer writing one-shots or multi-chaptered fics?
generally i prefer one shots i think? i'm a horrible outliner (i always have been, even in college most of my papers' outlines were just general topics and then a list of a bunch of quotes/evidence i think i could use), so i have to be COMMITTED to writing multi chapter fics, and also i just. don't have the time to write them much anymore. i also am not generally a person to post fics if i don't have them at least mostly complete (just as personal preference! it feels like too much pressure to me to post something when it's not done, i did that with the princess diaries 2 au and it just about killed me), so it means i've got a bunch of writing to do without much outside commentary when my motivation to write has already been flagging in the last 9 months or so? so yeah, just for like practical reasons, one shots
27. What is your most and least favorite part of writing?
i LOVE when i find the right turn of phrase or sentence structure that makes my brain go !!!!! when i write it down or reread it. it happened a LOT with the old!bucky fic and the star wars au, which is why i think i still love those so much even on days when i'm meh about my own writing
my least favorite part of writing is my own tendency to kind of turn it into an assignment with a due date, or to put a bunch of pressure on myself to write and upload when i'm not in the headspace for it/i'm too busy. i get a little obsessive about a lot of things, so it's really important to me i don't turn writing into like. a chore, ig??? bc it never ends well for my self esteem or my writing ability
51. What’s your total AO3 word count? 286,229! which is kind of wild, though like. 90% of that was written from the last quarter of 2021 through 2022 asdfkds. immediately post grad mak was a machine. who were they.

I've finally gotten my hands on totk and. Oh gods. This game sure is something
Cue Atari Rant Mode ig?
!!! SPOILERS FOR TOTK AND UNHINGED RAMBLING UNDER THE CUT !!!
What the fuck is that gloom thing with the eyes and the hand and the puddle it grabbed me I am terrified help please someone kill it for me
I am constantly hypervigilant for those things whenever I'm out in the overworld.
Also every single time a tree ends up being not-a-tree? I get so surprised. Like dude I am fully aware that was a thing that could happen why does it scare me so much I swear I jump like a mile each time.
Um let's see. I've played through the Rito quest line, I'm halfway through the Zora one (climbing up the skyslands now), I've gotten the first four tear visions and I've visited Kakariko, Hateno, and a bit into Faron and Eldin outside of quests.
Tulin is so baby I love him so much <333 my child now.
They gave Sidon a wife. How fucking dare they pop the bubble of every sidlink shipper. That man is fruity as fuck. Yknow what from now on I hc he's in a poly relationship with Link.
Also zelda gets so much characterization in this game omg. The school the garden her journal and her diary I'm going to cry I'm so in love with her. Also the zelink here is so heavily implied! I love it! I'm a hard-core botw zelink shipper
The fact that this has to fo with THE IMPRISONING WAR??? WERE FIGHTING THE DEMON KING HIMSELF???? LIKE THE OG??? DOES THIS MEAN THE CYCLE WILL BE BROKEN??? I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS FOR WHAT THIS MEANS FOR THE TIMELINE!!!!!!!!! IM SO FUCKIN HYPED OMG
Also all the Zonai lore we're getting. Amazing. I love them. I wanna fuck Rauru. Like I know I don't normally like men but *him*. And also Sonia but she was a given, I knew that from the start. Also Rauru? Hella gender envy
Look forward to pt 2 of this next time I have More Thoughts :P
