i have been unmedicated for the entirety of spring break and thus have had little interest in writing this down, but i have been thinking about this for the entire week (as well as a dpdc clone danny au that resulted in it becoming its entirely separate batman au that includes a teenage vigilante bruce wayne, an ocarina, and me entirely incapable of making a batman au without making bruce dirt poor but we're not talking about that) and so i've finally went 'fuck it' and forcibly grabbed my laptop. I will get this done in one sitting even if it kills me.
BUT. This is about neither clone^2 danny nor about who i am calling Ocarina Batman. This is about my Danyal Al Ghul Au and more SPECIFICALLY it's me thinking about his relationship with Sam and Tucker specifically.
Tucker and Sam? Adore this asshole (affectionate) with every fiber of their being. And it is very much a reciprocated feeling, but Danny's thoughts will not be delved into much other than he would kill for them.
Tucker? The only person currently capable of getting a deep, loud, belly laugh out of Danny. Sam can get him to smile and to laugh, but it's the kind that's a chuckle-under-the-breath. The quiet, looks-down-while-huffing laughter. Snorts once with laughter and then grins stupidly.
But Tucker? Tucker can crack a slew of stupid jokes and Danny will be incapacitated for the next five minutes because he's laughing so hard that he can't breath. He lands one well-timed pun or quip and Danny will be close to tears. His laughter is their favorite sound in the whole world.
Sam is lowkey jealous of this ability, and she's gotten a belly laugh out of Danny a few times. But alas, it is Tucker who wields this power and has gotten it the most times out of the two of them.
-
They're also both physically affectionate with Danny as much as possible. It started roughly around when they were 12-ish, a year since they befriended Danny, and they noticed that he sought after touch but never seemed to initiate (and was in some ways repulsed by it). They started slowly being more touchy with him. Hooking a finger around his to lead him somewhere, tapping his wrist, looping arms. Little touches, grabs, etc, to get him used to it, and once he started doing it back they started increasing it.
It's gotten to a point where he will now just. Lay on them. Like a lizard sunbathing on a rock. Leaning on their backs when they're sitting in class before the bell rings, his chin on their heads. He'll talk about anything with his arms looped around their shoulders.
If they're sitting on a couch at either of their houses, he'll lay his legs on theirs. Him and Tucker will press their feet against the other's and try and push against them (newsflash: Danny always wins, Tucker claims its the ghost strength but Danny's been winning since before his accident)
-
Naturally, both Sam and Tucker know where Danny keeps his weapons on his person, and are allowed to grab them off of him if they need it. His only requirement is that they don't lose his weapons if they take it and forget to return it immediately.
They both understand how big of a thing this is from Danny, and so they do their best to treat his weapons with a lot of respect and care because they know its his way of saying he trusts them.
-
Sam and Tucker are so fond of Danny it's insane. Like fr. That's their goddamn best friend, and they are so protective of him. Emotionally, physically, you name it. They will tear the head off a grown man if they need to, Danny's had scars since he arrived in Amity Park and Sam and Tucker both are going to find the person who put them there and make them pay for it.
One time, Tucker overheard a bunch of upperclass girls speaking nastily about Danny and about the rumors surrounding him, calling him names like 'freak', 'monster', etc. Danny was with him and heard it, and seemingly appeared unbothered by it, even telling Tucker that he was used to such rumors.
Tucker was so furious that hacked into the school system later that night and tanked those girls grades. They were kicked out of their clubs and had to go to mandatory tutoring for the rest of the year. He made sure to leave some way of letting them know it was him who did it.
And Sam doesn't like using her money for things, doesn't like abusing that wealth. So instead, whenever her parents talk bad about Danny, she causes a media incident that has her parents scrambling to deal with. She does something wild, outrageous by her parents' standards.
She heard some boys on the basketball team making fun of Danny once, similar to those girls had. She kicks up a fuss about something eco-unfriendly at school and forcibly holds a protest on the same day of the big home basketball game, forcing them to cancel the event and reschedule to a visiting school.
She anonymously donates money so that there's new uniforms for the team but oops! Looks like she "forgot" to donate enough money for them to get uniforms for all the team members, and strangely enough those boys in particular didn't get them! Looks like they'll have to wait until more money gets donated for the basketball team to get their new, nice uniforms. The old ones look so ratty in comparison, right?
And since the football team gets most of the sport money, that might just take awhile. And if (and when) they kick up a fuss? oops! Off the basketball team you go, :) such unsportsman-like behavior is unfit for the team.
(The only good thing about how corrupt the school system is is that she can use it to her advantage too.)
The both of them know that Danny suspects them for the sudden misfortune falling on these people, but he doesn't call them out on it. He's kinder than he used to be, but not kind enough to vouch for people who speak badly of him. Sometimes, he might just congratulate them on not getting caught.
Because Danny is their wonderful, hurt friend with a "slightly" Blue and Orange Moral code, and enough scars that people have been calling him a criminal (and worse) since he arrived in Amity Park when he was ten. And they'll be damned if he gets hurt anymore.

I'm willing to at least hear out most of the "xyz plot point is heavily tied to abc cultural context" brands of posts but the "wwx isn't meant to be read as morally gray" and "the western fandom made up Sizhui being wangxian's son" brands of post make me feel like my cultural ignorance is being used to gaslight me
#mdzs#vent post#the filial piety stuff in relation to jgy is incredibly interesting and has influenced my opinion on him#being told about the whole mo dao vs gui dao thing was very helpful since that is completely lost in the english translation#whether or not wwx's self sacrificing tendencies are supposed to be a good thing is a conversation i find interesting#even though i haven't come to my own conclusion on it yet#but wwx not being morally gray??? bro was a major player in a war- no ones coming out of that spotless#i also just straight up don't trust y'all about what mxtx said on him being morally ideal#y'all take her words out of context or just straight up lie about what she said so often that#I can't take anything y'all “repeat” from her at face value. i need links to the sources before I'll believe anything#on Sizhui being wangxian's son:#thats so embedded in the text the only way I'd believe it wasn't the intended reading is if 7 seas straight up rewrote section of the books#because its more than just a few throw away lines and wwx calling him his little one#its sizhui being formally adopted into the lans (proven by the cloud pattern headband)#its the extra where they take him on a nighthunt/investigation without any of the other disciples#its the paying extra attention to his hw while doing the grading#its in the miscellaneous anecdotes Sizhui remembers from wwx even after he lost his memories from early childhood#its the baby stories and sizhui chewing on wwx's flute#its Sizhui's unconditional faith in the two of them#its in Sizhui's choosing the same instrument as lwj#that is their kid!!! not through modern western adoption but thats still their kid!!!#sizhui developing a close relationship with his uncle doesn't change that#Wen Ning is the cool untaking the lan babies on field trips. wangxian are the ones actually raising him#also mxtx has been pretty open about being influenced by things other than chinese classics#so using “well traditional Chinese story telling uses this convention” will never be automatically be the correct™️ take on her work#not to say her stories are completely devoid of traditional structures its just she mixes in other styles too

Eöl & Aredhel (Tolkien) Cosplayer + editing: me Song: Darkness by Blackmore's Night Once upon a dark autumn night I was so very far from sleep I longed to walk beneath the stars Into the woods so dark and deep Neither myth nor fairy tale Could keep me from the path to the maze But eyes upon me I could feel Hidden in the shadows watching always Something in the darkness pulled me deeper Something in the madness eased my mind Was I awake or was I dreaming? Cut the strings that bind me to mankind
When you don't know other local Silm cosplayers or anyone who'd be up for this, so you gotta do it all yourself So, I got this crazy idea in my head several months ago and it wouldn't leave me alone, it's been eating away at my brain; I finally got Eöl together (doing a shoot with him this coming weekend! ^^), so I can now scratch it off of my list and find some peace at long last XD
#eol#aredhel#silmarillion#tolkien#cosplay#hira cosplays aredhel#hira cosplays eol#(trying this again since apparently tumblr ate it last night X_X)#had lots of fun doing this but also SUPER self-conscious about posting it lmao#i haven't sung or touched musical instruments since my college days (i.e. 10+ years)#and had to clip my nails for the guitar T_T#also the flute playing is mimed sadly; my flute is in a different key and i couldn't transpose the song as this is the only key where i can#hit it with both upper and lower register#but maybe next time i wear eol i can record some of his dubious flute playing for y'all XD#also i chose to give him tiny fangs and it was /so weird/ singing with them in O_o

Me: *listening to my big shamisen playlist while I work at home reading cases* Hehe strings go twang nicely for my braincells
Spotify: *hits me in the face with “Blue” by Aun J-Classic Orchestra again*
Me: I am going to die. ToT
#kidk says stuff#context is: song is beautiful and also firmly associated in my mind with a certain banana ship I’m feral over forever#((my iteration of it anyway. my miscreants.))#I mean…shamisen is one’s associated instrument and bamboo flute is the other’s (blue has both shinobue and shakuhachi in it)#the song starts with just the shamisen and the flute slowly joins more and more until they're weaving around each other#there’s a big climactic section that sounds like heroic adventure that then gets interrupted#((by a tragic sight? a realization? a confirmation of suspicions come true in the worst possible way??))#before coming back and building to a chaotic frenzy that ends abruptly with a lingering high flute note#and then the shamisen is mostly alone again...trailed by only soft hints of the flute like...#((memories? regrets at actions not taken? words not said??))#and there's a *little* bit of a hopeful tone in the koto buoying the notes...#((sounding almost like a harp?? an approach toward someone imbued with light??))#until that one final tragic-sounding note from the shamisen backed by low flute#((maybe…as someone bows his head thinking only of what must be done to save the rest where he couldn’t save…well…))#I WILL DIE!!!!!!!!#ohhhh them#this post is classic me putting everything i REALLY want to say in tags instead of the post oh well#kidk headcanons#<--i'm throwing it in this tag that's personal to me because it IS my boys but this is not...for the fandom tags lol#i'll come back and add banana bread to it later for my own purposes#banana bread

“Everyday people, in their own sweet way, Like to add a coat of paint and be what they ain’t! That’s how our little game is played, Livin’ like a masquerade, actin’ a bizarre charade, While playing the saint!”
~“Facade” from Jekyll and Hyde

Ahhh, no!! Carewyn!! D:
Ahem -- yeah, this is a counterpoint to a piece I’ve done in the past about Jacob and how he got ensnared by Charles Cromwell and R’s web...but this is going to take a little bit of explanation! First, though, my musical accompaniment while working on this includes Things Are Not What They Appear from Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World, Elsie Lovelock’s cover of Trust in Me from The Jungle Book, and Wolfsong by Omnia. 😊
Okay, right to it. Those of you who know Hogwarts Mystery, there’s a moment toward the beginning of year 6 where MC meets Jacob in his old room at Hogwarts, after following Sickleworth the Niffler, who’s carrying a white quill that it turns out is a threat from R, reminding MC that R still intends to “collect” on one of their friends’ lives. Well, this scene has always bugged me, because Hogwarts is supposed to be nigh impregnable, to the point that even Voldemort couldn’t get inside during the First Wizarding War -- so how does a non-Hogwarts-graduate like Jacob get in so easily?
My answer -- that is not really Jacob. In my canon, the person Carewyn instead meets is an agent of R, who -- with inside help from another agent who plays as the newest Defense Against the Dark Arts professor -- was able to sneak into the school and impersonate Jacob with Polyjuice Potion. And this agent impersonating Jacob is none other than Carewyn’s maternal uncle and heir to the Cromwell Clan, Blaise.
Blaise Cromwell is a character who -- quite honestly -- I think deserves multiple punches to the face. He is ridiculously possessive of his family, seeing them as akin to prized toys that no one else is allowed to touch but him, and his sister Lane and her children are no exception. Blaise is just as determined as Charles is to force Lane, Jacob, and Carewyn back into the fold of the Cromwell Clan, and he has no moral compunctions that might temper that desire. He’s more than willing to lie, deceive, torture, or even kill to achieve that goal. And because he was raised by Charles -- who like Jacob and Carewyn was born with immensely powerful Legilimency -- Blaise became a master of Occlumency at a young age, all in the effort of maintaining some privacy in and control over his own mind. This Occlumency and Blaise’s rather convincing act makes it so that Carewyn at first has no idea that she’s not speaking to her brother...at least, not until Blaise as Jacob collides with her in Knockturn Alley, while Carewyn herself is disguised as Patricia Rakepick. But for now, Carewyn is completely unawares...not just because Blaise was so good at capturing Jacob’s mannerisms and overall attitude, but because he sounded so sincere, speaking of his desire for their family to be as it once was. It made it so that when he so “reluctantly” accepted her help with the Vaults on the condition that she not involve her friends “unnecessarily” the way he did Duncan and Olivia, Carewyn didn’t suspect anything amiss. And well, Blaise does want his family as he once had it. He wants his sister Lane back at the Cromwell estate...and he does want her children there with them. Sure, for her and them, it’d be a cage, but they’d learn to accept it. They were family, after all -- the Cromwell estate, and the Cromwell Clan, was where they belonged.
For however terrible of a person Blaise is, however, I will point out that the moment Blaise collided with Carewyn in Jacob’s old room was the first time he’d really been able to interact with his niece. And however much he was focused on his goal, it didn’t mean he felt nothing, seeing her for the first time.
Lane had been Blaise’s favorite sibling when they were young -- admittedly largely by default since they were closest in age and Lane was both intellectual and disinterested in social gatherings enough that Blaise enjoyed her company -- so her departure had a profound impact on Blaise, just as it did the rest of the Clan. He missed his third sister dearly, and hearing that she’d not only married a Muggle, but that that wretched man then proceeded to abandon her and her children upon Jacob’s Hogwarts letter arriving at their door, Blaise felt a surge of overprotectiveness toward both Lane and her children. They deserved better than what they’d had to live with -- they deserved to live well, not in poverty; they deserved to be treated like high society, not like freaks; they deserved a real home with the Clan, not living in a Muggle gutter. Jacob and Carewyn’s experience with their father should prove to them the superiority of wizardkind over Muggles -- not drive them further into the arms of Muggle lovers like the Weasleys or Mudbloods like Olivia Green or Ben Copper. With Blaise himself a widower and single father, he’s imprinted some of those twisted paternal instincts onto both Jacob and Carewyn as well -- and when he met Carewyn for the first time while disguised as Jacob, he witnessed her capacity to love first-hand. For while he wore her brother’s face, this usually stoic, pretty little teenager fussed over Blaise, fixing his robes and expressing sincere and open concern for his safety. The closest comparison point Blaise had for Carewyn’s behavior was that of his own deceased mother, Marilyn -- and yet there was no sense of asserting control here, with Carewyn. Charles only used “concern” as a means to an end -- to get a better read on who he was talking to. Even Marilyn would express concern by taking some authority over her children -- telling them to sit up straight, fixing their collars and hair to make them look perfect, because she wanted them to succeed, which would also reflect well on her. But not Carewyn. Her caring was given with no caveats or conditions -- no semblance of dominance or control. It was so...selfless.
Blaise had had no concept that any relative of his could be so weak-hearted. And yet all it did was make him want to bring her into the fold more.
People are rife to take advantage of a child like this. The people around her already have taken advantage of her. These ‘friends’ of hers that she’s so desperate to protect from us...what have they done, to deserve her caring? Who are they, to deserve her loyalty? Muggle lovers, Mudbloods, paupers and orphans...they are not her family -- we are her family!
The thought made Blaise’s inside flare with resentment and anger.
And I intend to treat her like it.
At one point during their meeting, Carewyn asked the man she thought was Jacob if something was wrong. Blaise tried to play this off, simply claiming he was lost in thought. Sensing Carewyn might be starting to pull away from him, Blaise offered a shred of vulnerability.
“...It’s just...the last time I saw you...you were only a child. You still would be a child, if not for the Cursed Vaults...”
Some resentment slipped out despite himself. As much as he wanted his family back together, and as much as he knew his father Charles’s word was law so long as he was head of the Clan, Blaise really hadn’t wanted his son or any of his nieces and nephews to be involved with R. He’d fought hard to keep Tristan and Pearl and Claire’s children out of this whole mess.
“...I wish I could shield you, Pip. I wish that...things could be just the way they were.”
Carewyn’s eyes softened. Feeling compassion in her heart for who she thought was her brother, she then opened up her arms and encircled “Jacob” in a hug. The gesture made Blaise flinch.
“Me too,” Carewyn murmured.
The warmth of her embrace flooded Blaise with a strange, trembling kind of pain -- an ache he hardly knew the origin of. He so rarely received hugs as it was, but this kind of hug in particular -- however much it comforted Carewyn as much as him, once again, there was no sense of transaction, no sense of control. She was just offering him comfort, and she found comfort herself just in giving it...such a weak-hearted gesture, and yet expressed by such a firm, warm embrace.
Abruptly, before he fully knew what he was doing, Blaise had lashed his arms out and seized hold of Carewyn, cradling her against his chest the way he did his own son, Tristan. The strength of his hug made Carewyn give him a light squeeze in return, which in turn made tears clutch at Blaise’s throat. Forcing them back fiercely, the heir of the Cromwell Clan simply held on tighter, resting his head on top of Carewyn’s as a choked song drifted absently from his lips.
“The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping, I dreamed I held you in my arms... When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken, So I hung my head and cried.”
Blaise hardly knew the origin of the old song anymore, aside from it being his main choice of lullaby for his son, Tristan, when he was young. Carewyn seemed to know it, though. Her lips even curled up in a small, sad smile of her own as she sang the chorus with him --
“You are my sunshine...my only sunshine... You make me happy when skies are gray... You’ll never know, dear...how much I love you... Please don’t take my sunshine away.”
Patricia Rakepick had told Blaise that Carewyn was a true Cromwell, when she sang. Seeing what she meant, by hearing the warm, trained tone of his niece for the first time, made Blaise squeeze Carewyn that little bit tighter.
Oh, if only his mother could’ve heard her, Blaise thought of Marilyn at the grand piano so many years ago...if only she’d had the chance to hear Lane’s daughter sing...
“We can’t forget Laney’s baby. We must get something for the baby...”
When Blaise finally forced himself to let go of Carewyn, he cleared his throat, trying to pull himself together as he turned away.
“...I should go. The longer I’m here, the more of a chance someone’ll see me. Can’t afford to get you in more trouble, on my account...”
Carewyn frowned. “Mm...”
Even with how disappointed she looked, she still nodded. Blaise turned to her much more seriously.
“Best not tell anyone I was here, Pip,” he said. “If your friends are anything like mine...I doubt they’ll just stand back and watch, if they know you’re helping me with the Vaults.”
Carewyn’s eyes fell away as she nodded again grimly. She clearly didn’t need to be convinced -- she’d already come to that conclusion herself.
Good, thought Blaise coldly. The more she separates herself from them now, the easier it’ll be for her to let go of them and return home to us. Then she’ll know what home and family truly are.
The memory of trying and failing to completely modify Ben Copper’s memory outside the Ice Vault -- of seeing him fearfully mumbling Carewyn’s name in his sleep in the Hospital Wing, after he was recovered -- made Blaise’s fist clench around his wand as he left the room and disappeared down the hall.
Everything would be the way it should be, Blaise thought, once he brought Lane and her children home. He’d make sure Lane, Jacob, and Carewyn had everything they could ever want, once they came home to the Clan. He’d make sure they were content -- that they’d have everything they needed, at home, where they belonged.
Then they’d stay. They’d stay, and never leave again.

I've been re-watching Adventure Time episode by episode and just got to the Pillow World one and man.
I do not remember that episode being as emotional devastating as it was last time I saw it a decade ago but wow.
#adventure time#he doesn't remember his wife he doesn't remember his kids or anything!#this whole episode is like a speedrun of that one star trek tng ep where picard lives a whole other life#but he doesn't even get to get any cool flute playing abilities from it or really learn anything from the experience!#he just has to live an entire life and then die and then immediately become reincarnated as himself#stargazer rambles#i like this re-watch. some episode that i had no interest in 10 years ago suddenly work a lot better with time

#ari opinion hour#tl;dr my applied faculty member completely sucks for a multitude of reasons but has tenure#and im in the techniques class (class where music ed majors learn instruments) that has my instrument in it (sax/clarinet/flute)#and one of the other applied professors is everything my main professor is not#(shows up to class every single day with a lesson plan‚ is actually professional‚ very CLEARLY understands how to teach in a way that is#catered to the students aka pays attention to make sure students are actually. yk. UNDERSTANDING THE MATERIAL‚ has an ed degree and#therefore understands where we're coming from and knows things about OTHER instruments‚ isnt unhappy when ppl in his studio play other#instruments more than the bare minimum required for the degree‚ rephrases if someone isnt getting it rather than just Saying It Again‚ is#also like one of the most qualified applied faculty tbh)#so im like. What could have been different. How could i change everything.

#clai speaks#spoilers under here#man i dont know what to say. i Really loved this game#xbc 1 and 2 were great sure but this one absolutely demolishes the other two to me#the most lovable cast of characters the visuals the music the main story the SIDE stories#side quests in the other games were for the most part really boring but every xbc3 sidequest felt somewhat significant at least#like its not just ''go help this guy do his groceries or some boring fetchquest with uninteresting no name npcs#the quests all had something to do with helping these colonies survive and build meaningful relationships#i heard the zeon potato thing is a bit of a meme but i was INVESTED in that shit i WANTED HIM TO GROW SOME GOOD GODDAMN POTATOES#not a single main character i was even just Neutral on either like. i didnt care too much for sharla and tora admittedly#but i care SO much about each and every ouroboros member#each one of them is so extremely compelling on their own and complement each other so well and their interactions are so good to watch#every day i think about the campsite animation where sena is playing with taion's mondo and he makes one disappear before she can catch it#i have almost zero complaints with this entire game it is SO. its everything to me rn#the ending. it was PERFECT for what the story is its all been leading up to the worlds splitting again i KNOW but i cant take it man legit#i wouldnt want the ending to change i think i just. personally hate endings where they rip apart the protags i cant handle them#i KNOW it ends on noah hearing the flute and running off and they'll probably meet again years after the game ends but#the noah and mio and everyone you PLAY as. are just gone#their memories and bonds with each other they're restarting#and no thats not a bad thing. its unfair but thats kinda the point#I'M TRYING NOT TO SOUND LIKE THOSE PEOPLE WHO LEGIT CANT HANDLE CONFLICTS IN STORIES BUT I JUST. SORRY#ITS A GOOD ENDING ITS A PERFECT ENDING IT JUST MAKES ME. SO UPSET. WHICH IS THE POINT BUT ALSO. UGH#one thing i will say. Rex??? Holy Shit#i saw that picture months ago and thought it was fanart or a good edit or something NO ITS REAL#AND THEY PUT IT LIKE. SMACK BANG IN THE PASSIONATE KISS BETWEEN NOAH AND MIO. BAM REX PYRA MYTHRA NIA JUMPSCARE#am i right in thinking thats. Weird. i thought pyra/mythra were older than rex but i could be wrong on that#but even if they werent why BOTH pyra and mythra arent they. the same person. they split at the end of xbc2 but pyra still came from mythra#idk. i dont like that at all#poppi still being around though now THAT was great. i love poppi so much WHY COULDNT SHE HAVE APPEARED BEFORE#and last note. the fight with z being the FIRST time melia successfully lands starlight kick without falling over. Perfect

Had a random idea for the Ice Toa series of Sapphira's mom Irene of her Toa stuff
Her Toa tool being a bo-staff to represent Valiant's aura bone staff just ice themed and then THIS-
youtube
Because I had the stupid ass idea from this boss battle that Irene's Kanoi Mask ability is basically this video above
But she has the ability to disable it's effects if she wishes so she can sing normally
No, she does not have underworld people come out of the ground for the glow sticks (if she could I would have a brain aneurysm trying to figure out how and lore for that, probably similar of Baal Zebul anyway how both Infernal Demons and Paradiso Angels would come together to hear her singing since it's so beloved)
Sapphira and the rest of her Toa team would probably be the only ones who hear her sing like that without her Kanoi Mask abilities kicked in like she has for battle
Bayonetta 3 has dragged me into a pit of our beloved Umbra Witch of a forbidden child Bayonetta/Cereza
And I don't wanna leave bc my religious trauma ass loves it here
#bionicle#g1 bionicle#ice toa series#Toa Celeste#this is where Sapphira gets her singing skills from#also just realized this Toa team has unintentional musical references#Irene with singing#Clara with her chinese flute#Eric with his harp#not sure for Hyria and Chaosis yet tbh#but i have no issues with it#plus been Invisioning an animation battle of that boss fight for Irene#pre Ice Toa series ofc#Youtube

@lunaetis || Requiem || UNPROMPTED
->memories flowed like water, a field of flowers blooming eternal in a sea of white, HOW could he forget this, forget them? the lives they led, ten years far too short for them, for their SON. their son, a child he'd forgotten to the cycle of nature, of course Monica had been RIGHT, he'd already found the one he loved with every fibre of fragmented being, she'd been beside him the moment he became OUROBOROS again and again.
a PART of him knew that day in what the lost called a hospital, all those FEELINGS clicking into place at the joy on her face, motherly joy, he UNDERSTOOD now, the joy, the LONGING deep inside that swallowed him whole at the smile brighter than any STAR on his Mio's face. from the earth they were BORN and to the earth they'd return, maybe, just maybe they'd live as long as Vandham, long enough to see their son grow and experience the joy he FELT, the joy in Mio's SMILE at the tiny hand wrapped around a finger.
now, BENEATH the new moon, he let himself be lost in what ifs and maybes, how when all this was OVER he'd find her again and again and again, no matter how many lifetimes it took he'd find his way home to her from the start. there would be no TERM limit to their lifespans, they'd grow together, fall in love, and return to the earth, he would not squander the gift M left to them, this he SWORE on the queens themselves.
he HAD her back, reclaimed from the loom of fate itself, but even now he was lost in all of THEIR newfound memories, tripping over how all those pieces begun to click together, their BOND, their love lasting even the abyss of time, somewhere deep inside ORIGIN hummed, reminding him of its presence as his eyes drifted to the frame that slumbered beside him, white locks once short curling down her back as her chest rose and fell bathed in dawn's early light.
even now he COULDN'T believe it, Mio, his Mio, had been there from the start, her hand always intertwined in his. they'd ran and ran, meeting Eunie, Sena, Lanz and Taion time and time again during this accursed war, always moving one step closer to now. finally he UNDERSTOOD why N had been so broken, refusing to contemplate a world without her now matter what. deep sighs left him as his hand rose to brush the hair from her cheeks, unable to resist the familiar moment.
"I love you, Mio." words he should have said to her so long ago.
#a dance of blades through the air && her smile engraved within his soul ;; Mio ;; Lunaetis#where blades flash his flute sings && a soul yearning for her presence unknowing ;; Noah#lunaetis#[ HE TOOK THE WHOLE BRAINCELL WELL THEN ]#[ .... the other queued stuff needs to be revised bc Noah set the bar ]

once again devastated that I don't know how to make video games because my video game dreams are literally the coolest
#This one might be the most complicated game I've had so far tho#Like... Bc it's multiplayer and has no real ending#It's like Minecraft apocalypse edition ig#Like.. there is plot. But there's no other humans around unless you invite friends over#And like. Idk how to explain it? But you gather resources#You start with a boat and a basic fishing rod and your flute#And you actually don't have any songs for the flute in the beginning but you absolutely can learn them#By finding radios around the world#Also the world is made of like. Specific “levels”?#Like there's a city and some farmland and stuff#And. It's not that everything is flooded but you do get everywhere via boat#Which is why making sure your boat survives is very important bc you don't want to be stuck with evil possums and no way home#And then you like. Build your base in a specific “level” where a lot of the basic game lore can be found#And you can tame beasts from the overworld and stuff#And get upgrades to fish automatically to automate survival#And slowly you can begin to prosper#And then you go tread old ground and find more stuff now that you're not scared it'll kill you#Because so what if there's a drowned beast in the closet of upside down house you have your own beasts to beat it for you#My favorite part was actually arriving at the base of whoever was playing in my dream tho#Like bc they actually super upgraded the shack#So while it starts as a mostly decrepit fishing shack#With a fireplace to cook your catch so you don't starve and a bed#They got everything furnished nice and cleared to dead trees outside to get some farms going#And made a lot of the cool little structures like the ones that allow for beast breeding (so you get more beasts to fight for you)#And also remade all the walls so they're wood and glass#Also I love how they named their river beast martha that's lovely#Anyways though because the world is like 99% abandoned by humans? Apparently if you fix stuff up enough you get a reputation#And then the three alive humans come talk to you and tell you lore stuff#Like how big company was about to celebrate 181 years and had a break in happen that killed the ceo and his wife#(which you learn from their kid)
