OC prompt for Rowan - skip forward on your playlist 17 times…

Stranger Things Have Happened - Foo Fighters

Rowan groaned as she started to wake. Her pulse throbbed throughout her body, a metronome reminding her that she still lived. But it told her that something was wrong. Something was so terribly, terribly wrong.

She flexed her fingers. She could at least do that. Toes, ankles, wrists, elbows... She sat up. She didn't feel anymore dizzy or sick from doing that too quickly as she would if she hadn't -

"You made it," Ardbert said.

Rowan pinched the bridge of her nose. "Was there doubt that I would?"

"A world's worth of Light in one mortal body? Aye, of course there was. Ryne managed to stabilize you on the mountain top and your duplicitous wizard ran down the entire mountain and giant Talos with you in his arms."

She groaned. What was she going to do about Urianger?

"You're not going to like it, but you should see the sky."

More groaning, and Rowan opened the shutters. The sky was the bright, roiling mass of light it was previously.

"Your friends are taking care of the people. Making sure the populace doesn't mob you because you brought the Light back -"

Rowan felt heat and anger bloom. "I didn't."

Ardbert crossed his arms. "Well, you certainly didn't get rid of it."

"I am not the Ascian who set this -" she motioned to the sky, "- all into motion. Nor am I the one who had well over one hundred years to prepare and the knowledge of Allag at his fingertips and was only able to come up with a bloody secret suicide pact and drag a man more than willing to play the villain into it."

She turned, and found her armor neatly placed by the door. She grabbed her boots and a fresh pair of socks and began to suit up.

"Where are you going?" he asked.

"I'm going to figure out how to get to the bottom of the Tempest so I can beat that smug look off of Emet-Selch's smarmy face."

"The place he told you to go to when you were ready to fully transform into an eater?"

Rowan rolled her eyes. "I'm not going to transform into a Sin Eater." She then winced as if glass broke within her rib cage. 

"To the library then?" Ardbert suggested gently.

"If I can even make it there..." She took as deep of a breath as she dared and walked to the door.

He shrugged. "Stranger things have happened, I suppose. And I'll be with you when you do it."

Basically Each Doctor

I love doing these so I thought I'd do another one.

First: Grandpa will throw hands and kidnap girls that look like his granddaughter.

Second: Hobo and his boyfriend achieve mischief, until hobo's parents return to send him to the mega gay zone.

Third: Rebellious child is sent to time out, and he takes over local military organization. Becomes a superhero and car dad.

Fourth: Man with teeth that could blot out the sun accidentally starts the biggest war ever.

Fifth: Man who is always out of his depth tries to keep his gaggle of children alive while they drag their leashes in 20 different directions.

Sixth: Sweetest man in the universe pretends to be a dick, and flashbangs people with his shear audacious style.

Seventh: 200iq giga-brain becomes the ultimate 5D chess-master to kill gods, and gets shot as soon as he steps foot into America.

Eighth: The happiest little rambunctious puppy gets repeatedly kicked in the stomach till he gives up via the pavlovian response.

War: "We don't talk about granddad warcrimes"

Ninth: Man comes back from war and becomes a PTSD ridden uber hippie.

Tenth: The most vain man in the universe kisses everyone and is unable to get over his ex.

Eleventh: Ancient demigod looks 25 and is going to make it everyone else's problem, especially for his in-laws.

Twelfth: Your college professor casually mentions all the cool shit he did in the 70s, all while saying ACAB and dismantling capitalism.

Thirteenth: Woman shoots longing glances at another woman for three seasons, all while lying about how much everyone else is contributing.

Fugitive: Woman's appearance completely breaks established canon, but honestly worth it because she's that cool.

Fourteenth: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA happy 60th AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Kell's Vengeance is out, which is a sort of an epilogue/tying a loose end with Skolas. It's a special mode of Contest of Elders, with only three arenas and you fight Skolas at the end. Really cool mission, though a little tough. Can't be done solo at all, as in you cannot load in alone, you need at least two people, but absolutely recommended to go in with all three. Has a really interesting mechanic for the boss fight!

Either way, I'll post the dialogues from the mission because they're intriguing. When you load in:

Interesting! Fikrul left him in the Prison because it appears to have been difficult to work with him. Needless to say, he does answer to the challenge, so there does appear to be something of him left.

When you start the first encounter:

He's calling us slurs <3 Love that for him. "Dream of Mars" I presume refers to the stuff from D1 where after his rebellion failed, remaining House of Wolves tried continuing on Mars. I'm not sure if there's anything else about him personally being interested in Mars.

When you finish the second encounter:

Outside of Skolas desperately trying to insult us, we've got grandpa warcrimes hyping us up. I do wonder if Skolas is specifically talking to us, as in the Young Wolf, or if it's just generic anti-Guardian stuff. Obviously we can't know since Variks doesn't translate, but interesting to think about.

After you finish the mission, aka after you kill Skolas:

Strange! Keeping him actually still alive and telling us as well (so it's not like Taniks laughing at the end of DSC as an easter egg, this is way more direct) is very intriguing. I wonder if this is how they'll keep the Eliksni/Scorn threats around canonically now that Eramis is leaving and Fikrul is gone. Or if there will be some other reason for keeping him.

Round 1

Characters' info under the cut

Xie Lian (wiki)

Domains: Ascended thrice and was banished twice. First time as a Martial God, second time as a God of Misfortune, third time as a Scrap God.

Propaganda:

To ascend to godhood once is already a rarity. Twice is unheard of. But thrice??? How cool is that? He keeps getting banished by the Heavenly Emperor but the Heavens (a separate power over which the Emperor has no power over) want him up there sooooooo bad. Xie Lian is a person who once said 'Live Laugh Love' to a ghost and then said ghost took it so incredibly personally they decided to make his life living hell until he was just like them. Xie Lian went through all of that and just became kinder as a result. He spent around 800 years living with the worst luck possible of his own will just because he wanted to atone for what he had done when the ghost had nearly broken his spirit (the events preceding his second ascension). He's God's whumpiest soldier. He's an incredibly unreliable narrator because he simply Will Not think about things even if it's relevant to the story until he's face to face with them and unable to ignore them any longer. He's suffered so much physical trauma over his life that he can no longer feel pain. He starts the book not particularly healed from the trauma but he's compartmentalized it enough to be relatively stable and then the book takes a sledgehammer to every single one of his weakpoints so he can actually heal. Good thing his third ascension allowed his future husband to finally find him after the same 800 years of searching (they knew each other in the past) and he can be there to support him through it all <333 yes this book is a BL. He's gay and he gets a husband who adores him so much he defied death and literally became the world's strongest ghost by the force of his love. Xie Lian my beloved. Vote Xie Lian The loser. The layoff. The legend. It's the Trash God himself, coming back into the ring for round three. This god was kicked out of heaven and pulled back by complete accident on account of his sheer power - on more than one occasion - but he'd much rather spend his days taking naps, sweeping the floor of his little shack, and sending lavender essential oil tips in his heavenly groupchat. No one gives off great-great-great-grandpa vibes quite like he does, and when he's put his nose to the grind, he's racked up a good spectrum of feats. (Including but not limited to: a coincidental military escapade, swashbuckling, saving a falling kid from a balcony, and several horrific warcrimes.) He's perservered for 800 long years and is long overdue for a break, so here's to a peaceful future alongside his wonderful ghost husband, who would probably be cooking the celebratory meal for this tournament in interest of not giving the other competitors dysentery. As his friends could tell you, he's got a good heart, he's just a bit of a cosmic plaything sometimes - but deep down, don't we all have a clown in us? He is one of the few characters in a lot of media I’ve consumed that feels so real to me. He is a god but he is so human in his way of acting. His backstory is incredibly complex and tragic, so glad he got a rich husband in the end. He deserves everything I love him so much ohhhh my god someone more eloquent needs to write propaganda for him cause all I can say is 🥰🥰🥰🥰 Please

You say "Mori is partly responsible for Arahabaki project" and I raise you "It was actually Fukuchi". I mean. The man is hailed as a world hero; destroyed a few powerful entities; what those entities are left somewhat vague; we only know that one of them was Bram, and he's far less dead than he's supposed to be.

While I don't think it's in his wheelhouse per se I do see Fukuchi being in on it in some way, like hell, maybe Chuuya was supposed to be the start of the Hunting Dogs.

[funnyscienceman]

at least twice now viktor has been wrong about something intertwining science with ideology/morality/philosophy

in s1 he says "scientists seek discoveries - ways to make the world a better place!"

when... no, scientists are just people who research and have expertise in a field of science. whatever their morals, ideals, or goals are, they're a scientist regardless.

(may or may not be him trying to distance himself from singed? trying to reconcile the field he loves with the idea that the man who first mentored him in it is a horrible person??)

the second time actually does involve singed. in the greenhouse, viktor says evolution has a destination, "Not to combat nature, but to supersede it."

which... is also wrong! no viktor, i know we disapprove of grandpa warcrimes, but he got it right that evolution is nature forever in flux! it like, kinda just happens, dude! whatever hexcore bs you're on right now, buddy, it might be messing with your head!

all joking aside, idk why viktor said this. he didn't act like himself at all throughout season 2 until like the last five minutes, imo, so my bias against s2 might be making it more difficult to engage with this tidbit where it's at. there also isnt much of a point to this post beyond "huh, weird", because i dont have a clue nor much of an inclination to figure out why viktor says this. at least in s1 that can be explained by him being super idealistic. here, idk man, chalk it up to hexcore bullshit and call it a day. maybe that's what the writers actually did this ep fuck if i know

[count-doodoo]

this is so late but i was going through my screenshots and found this and not to be overdramatic about hellsite moots but this low-key kinda means the world to me @bolithesenate ily <3
