sometimes he questions why you love him

it makes you cry whenever he asks

"(Y/N/N)..."

"why do you love me...?"

sobbing and you start listing all the reasons

just a simple touch is enough for him

this boy blushes so easily

you'll brush his hand and he'll turn so pink

sometimes you'll just be sitting there doing nothing of note

and he'll be staring at you in adoration

he's in absolute awe of you

thinks you're the most adorable thing ever

much like diego

you're his sweet, precious girl

he knows everything about you off by heart

from your favourite colour

he loves holding your hand

playing with your hair is one of his favourite things to do

don't get me wrong he likes when you do it to him

but he much prefers when he does it to you

he finds it really relaxing

he's usually pretty closed off about his childhood but he trusts you

sometimes when something that triggers a bad memory happens he goes to you to rant

he doesn't know what he'd do without you

𝑵𝒐. 7 , 𝑽𝒊𝒌𝒕𝒐𝒓 , 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑾𝒉𝒊𝒕𝒆 𝑽𝒊𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒏

viktors a sweetheart

he gives you private violin shows

he also rehearses in front of you to see what you think

he tries to get you to critique him

if you don't play violin, you probably just say its all perfect

if you do, you probably give him little tips on areas to work on

you go on little dates to watch the sunset

he has to be little spoon

he just needs some comfort

just needs to be wrapped in your arms and feel safe

poor guy has been through so much

sometimes he gets mad memories of the incident with allison and you have to calm him down

he wouldn't get jealous

he'd just get rlly insecure :(

if he saw someone flirting with you he'd just get a bit sad

he would think the worst and think that you would want to leave him for them :(((

poor bby

opens up to you about how bad his childhood was

sometimes he regrets writing the book

you have to reassure him that it's okay and they don't hate him for it

sure, they did, but not anymore

klaus thinks you two are adorable together

you've got quite a few polaroids of the two of you together

he has them on those little string lights above your bed

he keeps at least one in his pocket at all times

he does that thing where you check if you still have something valuable and it's so cute for some reason

and when he checks and its still there it puts this small little smile on his face

omg it's just shfjsjfjsjf

you take care of him when he's sick

he hates it bc he feels bad that you have to take care of him

but deep down he loves it and will treasure those memories forever

but he'd do the exact same thing if you were sick

whenever you buy him something he always feels bad if he didn't get you something

"Vik it's okay! you didn't have to get me anything,"

"NO ITS NOT I NEED TO GO GET YOU SOMETHING RIGHT NOW."

it's absolutely adorable

actually less about her more about her parents, specifically Kevin, he'd be both so excited to have another kid but also terrified. because shes his kid- he came around to and loves being Donovan's dad, of course, but that was a whole different beast because he was already a handful of years old and had experience outside being influenced by him, but Elizabeth wouldn't, she'd always be growing up around him and she even has his genes. he will inherently and inescapably be part of her life and he's afraid that'll ruin her.

i should talk about Elizabeth here sometime

[galaxyofender]

galaxy galaxy galaxy your Treebark fan kids all sound so interesting please share their origins

also do Ren and Martyn have a fav child (shshshsh ik realistically they wouldn’t but t’would be funny methinks

OKAY SO- first of all, here's a drawing of the three of them, look at my kids (from left to right: gawain, lycaon and persephone)

this post is going to be quite long so uh under a readmore it goes

okay second, i'll start with persephone, because the is the eldest child

when ren and martyn brought red winter, disturbing the natural order of the seasons, they called the attention of a bunch of seasonal spirits, looking for what had caused such a disturbance.

the youngest of these, one named persephone, tries to look closer at the two people who have caused the problem by disguising herself among their villagers. martyn, however, recognized immediately that this girl is not one of their villagers. ren and martyn try to give her back to the spirits, but she returns pretty soon.

persephone starts hanging out around dogwarts more and more often, helping ren and martyn but also pranking them both. martyn keeps joking of trying to return her again to the seasonal spirits that decided to stick around dogwarts, but both ren and martyn find that neither of them want to actually return her back, that they both have grown so used to having her around.

by the time 3rd life ends, ren and martyn look at each other and realize they both accidentally adopted a daughter, so they ask if persephone wants to come to hermitcraft with them, to which she says yes! ren also gifts her the skizz blade after 3rd life.

later on, she makes a separate server for her friends called the oasis, but continues visiting hermitcraft pretty frequently.

(design note: if you know dnd and the eladrin elves, that isnt that unaccurate of a comparison to how persephone works! also she does take the form of an avian most times, usually an owl avian)

second child now, gawain!

soon after treebark adopts persephone, ren gets a complaint from two of his villagers, something about their child being replaced with a changeling. when both ren and martyn see of trying to figure out what is wrong, they meet gawain.

the villagers explain that they just realized now that the fae tricked them and that both are very pissed off about it, and that they wanted to get rid of the changeling child. martyn, being one of fae himself, talks ren into adopting gawain as well, if the villagers didn't want him as their son.

from that point fowards, dogwarts has both a princess and a prince! :]

after 3rd life, he lives in hermitcraft with ren and persephone before persephone makes the oasis server, and also martyn gifts him the red winter axe too.

(design note: for this universe, changelings take the traits of whoever they consider their parents to be, even if they aren't biologically related! that is why gawain looks the most like ren and martyn out of all of their adopted children)

last child, and i promise this one is the last ROVIN SAFETYRAT YOU WILL NOT TALK ME INTO MAKING A FOURTH, lycaon!

martyn still doesn't have a home server, so he is still wandering around as a world hopper after double life, even if he does return to hermitcraft pretty often.

during one of these wanderings, he comes across a village in a snowy taiga and a very young wolf pup in the nearby forest that acts very friendly and doesn't seem to have parents. visiting the villagers the morning after, martyn finds a child with white wolf ears and a tail, hanging around an old woman, who does really remind him of the baby wolf he saw the last night.

asking the old woman, she invites him in to talk with a warm cup of tea, since he clearly looked like he wasn't from here. she explains that the boy's name is lycaon, and that his mom passed away not long after he was born, because of complications with the birth. after that, she took the baby to raise, since nobody knew who the father was.

martyn asks about the wolf ears, to which the old woman replies that she's getting to it. she says that some months ago, lycaon and a few other children of the village wandered too far out, into what apparently was the den of a family of werewolves, and lycaon got bitten.

they all noticed that his hair went white and a pair of wolf ears appeared, and the villagers knew that the child was now a werewolf even before the next full moon. the rest of the village children are a bit scared, not knowing what to think.

martyn brings up that he does know a werewolf, not mentioning that he is the partner of the werewolf he is talking about but being very obvious that he’s so very gay for this specific wolf, and that he might be able to help. the old woman reacts to it in a way of "well, you can try, if the child will come with you."

lycaon, who was hiding and overhearing their conversation, immediately jumps out the second he hears of another person like him. the old woman laughs, and martyn is like "well, i can take you to meet him if you'd like" to which lycaon agrees that he wants to meet this person. the old woman comments that maybe it’s for the best that lycaon is around others like him.

when martyn brings lycaon to hermitcraft and to ren, it takes one look from ren of "can we keep him?" to know that this will end up being another adoption.

(design note: the red shirt lycaon is wearing is actually one of ren's shirts! ren has tried and failed in convincing him to give it back)

other notes to make are:

persephone and gawain are 14-16 ish years old, lycaon is 8-10 ish

i do have other fankids and these three are friends with them!

the oasis server gets made somewhere in late hc s8, so during moon big but before it all goes to shit. also lycaon gets adopted during s9, possibly after the king plot ends?

i did write a little thing about gawain yesterday :D

[chickencrackerlover]

realized i might be gay and idk what to do with myself

posting this on my secret tumblr so no one ik irl finds it.

I grew up and live in the bible belt, so the fact I didn't realize this until 22 should be shocking to no one lmao. I've more identified as ace since i was like 13, but something just always "felt wrong". I genuinely could not figure out why. It wasn't until the past summer that the little switchboard in my noggin clicked all the right buttons.

This was honestly one of the worst summers of my life for several reasons. All of my friends joked that i must have pissed off a witch or something with all the random unfortunate circumstances I kept encountering.

During this summer, I ended up meeting a guy at a bar. We went hiking a few weeks later and all my friends got so excited seeing me, the chronically bitter and single friend, going on a date. "It wasn't a date" I would say everytime. "Yes it was" they would insist. I stopped arguing. They always get a little too invested in my romantic interests which is why I normaly wait so long to tell them if I ever see someone I like. Everyone is always so obsessed with me finding someone, and they never hesitate to insert their opinion about how "one day you'll find someone. Asexual or not, one day you'll look at them and think about how much you just want to start a family with them".

The conversation of not saying things like that to me has been had many times with almost all my friends. "Despite what you may think. It really isn't that I'm just so nervous around men that I don't want children." I would say. "I think it is." they would reply. "Stop. I'm being serious." I would say, more frustrated this time. This always tipped them off that they should shut up and listen. I'm really not one to ever get mad at my friends.

"I don't want biological kids. That much will always be true. But it isn't because I'm scared of sex or whatever. I'm scared of pregnancy. I don't know where that fear came from, but it makes me nauseous. I cannot stomach the idea of being pregnant. Not to mention by a man. Something about that irks me."

They never quite understood, but I appreciated their willingness to cut it with the psychoanalyzing.

Back to the guy. "He was nice" was about all i could say. When asked what I liked about him, I really couldn't give an answer. He had a great job, clean background, lived in a nice part of the city, seemed to have a healthy realtionship with his parents. Picture perfect. No mention of his looks, his body, his personality. Just "he was nice. good job, cool hobbies". They still ask if i've texted him since. Eventually, I got irritated by the constant need for an update and just started saying I lost interest. They all lectured me "you have to give guys a chance!". It fell on deaf ears to be sure.

So what was wrong? Nothing. It just felt wrong. Just like my ace label - which I had a habit of dropping when I became to confused about my own interests - it just felt wrong. After my summer from Hell finally ended, i walked into therapy one day and went over the details from the summer with her, venting out the bad air that was the past two months. Like I usually end up doing, I ended the session with a doorknob confession

"Also I think I may just be gay."

This was news to her because, while she did know I liked girls, she was also rooting for the mytery man. I spent the last 10 minutes of the session giving the summary of why i thought this, and she mentioned we should use the next session to go through it in detail. This was not the first time i had held this sentiment, and this time, she said, I seemed way more bothered by it.

Anyways, all this to say, the feeling hasn't gone away. I'm still constantly spacing out, making connections in my head I always thought were just coincidences. I feel like I've just seen something in the mirror I'd never noticed before and now my reflection looks different. I'm not sure what to do now. Do I start talking to girls? I never talked to anyone before.

My friends still don't believe me for some reason. They love to make the joke that I'm probably a lesbian and just refuse to admit it until I finally agree with them. "Well we don't know." "Why can't you just be bi? You don't have to be a 100% lesbian." "Well I don't know. What about when you were obsessed with [celebrity/ fictional character]? They're a man.]

I don't really care whether they do or not. Again, I live in the bible belt. Home of antioch, fire and brimstone gospel. I'm used to a sheer lack of support. I guess I'm more writing this post because I'm thinking a lot and don't know what to do with the thoughts. We'll see how it goes, maybe. I'll write more later.

(side note: finding wlw content is literally the most abyssmal thing ever. Why is every theme surrounding wlw relationships based on the whole "turning her gay" trope or "they are both straight. They just want to try it out".)

[sillyweirdcoffeegoose]

yet I forgot this stuff exist tho, however, ronan's chr lore dump bc, man idk- (tw: a bit of angst, uh, mentions of ab•s•)

today's chr is actually my chr; i mean, who tf if it isn't emine (aka talc/pavo)? TW: spoilers

yep, so far I wanna talk about her being a menace; it was all started when I put her in dat hunger games simulator, which gave me an idea if she's like, opposed from being calmer, she would be that uh, more like a menace.

so, here's the story, emine's actually just a young child, got kicked from her biological mother because of assuming she'll be like her biological father, whose personality she inherits later on; to be exact, she nearly like, being ab•s•d by her mother after the mother herself and the said father divorced. around that time, she was like, 3.

despite that she was even like, too young to live by herself, and survive as a stray kid, she even tried hard for her to survive and live so she could probably get herself, either to a new home yet, it was still hard for her. not to mention emine probably once robbed anything, but not most of the time only to fulfill her needs, especially for her pet cat as well. (yes, she canonically has a pet cat-)

however, it was not until she was about to rob some of devansha's (carbonado/corvus) stuffs, which later, he realized that she only needs them for her to fulfill what she was needed for; a new home, to be exact. at first, he was too skeptical to bring her with him, but however, he decided to adopt her without hesitation. and so, it goes til' this day when she was now lived normally, yet somehow...

devansha himself found emine definitely similar to him, especially when it comes for their cases as well before being taken to a new home. however, not as devansha himself, emine took differently, and guess what; yes, the fact that she actually took her biological father's personality, although she isn't aware of it, hence why she got that menace energy.

however, despite the risks, devansha still took care of her, even if she didn't even try to make a scene as long as he was actually there with her. yet also, that counts if her adoptive mother is there.

even as time passes by, emine herself tried to learn to move on from all her problems. even she had to let go from those, since she wasn't with her biological family; instead, she was indeed happy with her adoptive parents, especially her adoptive mother also, due to the fact that she always wanted a nice maternal figure.

anw, that's the story, yet I probably didn't wanna give dat menace a dark backstory but srsly, I fking did. I mean, why tf is wrong with my brain, like... yk, ik some of my characters' backstories are dark (slight or mild, it depends-), yet even for this rascal here as I wanna apologize for her to be given a tragic backstory 🏃‍♂️

[alaydabug2]

Yeah here's this 🤭

1. He's very overprotective of Sophie While yes she has almost died a bunch of times so has everyone else but he's most overprotective of SOPHIE

2. Sophie's telepathy is different because her mom (oralie) is an empath

What other ability is different than others people who have it

Inflicting......what does she shoot out her head......lighting.......what is Elwin.......a flasher

Case and point

3. In unlocked he said HIS LITTLE GIRL He could've phrased it ANY other way but he said HIS little girl

4. When he first met Sophie he was really disappointed that she was scared of him BECAUSE HE KNEW THAT WAS HIS DAUGHTER

5. When she got her ability reset the second time and Sophie was arguing with forkle about her biological parents Elwin goes "wait....you haven't told her yet....she deserves to know"

Like he wanted to tell her but he just wasn't allowed to say anything

6. He's never discriminated against her in the SLIGHTEST bit

Like Oralie never has because that's his DAUGHTER

7. I saw somewhere that in a deleted scene Mr.Forkle was the one who gave her Ella after she fell and hit her head when she was 5 and that Elwin could've been the one to give Ella to forkle to give to Sophie because of his MASSIVE stuffed animal collection

8. Mr.Forkle revealed one of his identities as magnate Leto to elwin out of the blue when it took the kids LITERALLY YEARS and to join the black swan before he told them

So why would he to elwin unless he was involved with the black swan before

9. As far as I know there is ZERO connection between Oralie and Elwin which is one of the hints forkle gave to Sophie bio parents

10. In unlocked he says "there's a lot you don't know about me" what's THAT supposed to mean hmmm

11. Elwin seems to be EVERYWHERE he's not the only physician right? Cause it seems like it because of how much he's mentioned in memories in kenrics cache

12. Ik that the black swan already has a physician but I feel like it'd make sense to have connection to another just in case

13. Juline said she was recruited into the black swan by physic. She was looking for doctors with an open mind and asked elwin for recommendations. ELWIN told her to try physic if that's the BLACK SWANS doctor

14. It would've been a good way tk keep an eye on Sophie when she eventually comes to the Lost Cities. With him being the school nurse he would be able to see her and make sue she's alright (Although I highly doubt they expected her to be so accident prone)

15. On top of that, maybe that's a other way he made a deal with the black swan so he would be able to see his daughter and have a relationship with her

16. Just a hunch

Ok guys lets be fr Elwin has to be Sophie's dad

i remember vaguely that Sophie was yelling at Mr Forkle this one time about how she deserves to know who her parents are, and Elwin was there and he nodded along and said "Yeah, I agree wholeheartedly" and looked at Mr Forkle and I forget how it was worded but I remember he looked at Forkle in a way that made me go, "Oh. He's her dad."

idk its a very weak statement BUT if i reread the books im sure i'll have more arguments

[ellieonomy]

ZEKE

that’s it.

just Zeke

no anon you’re so right actually and bc you said it here are hc i wrote last night + this morning

pairing: zekexreader

genre:hc, sfw/nsfw

cw. gn ig but ��pussy” is used and reader has the ability to get pregnant (??) if that’s important to anyone (ability like it’s a quirk lol) fluff+ (little bit of smut if you squint. dirty talk ,cum (?) talk whatever you wanna call it) below the cut

an . eremika is canon here bc i said so and i love them so you will read it.

an.2 ngl first one is me projecting bc i do that all the time LMAO. so is the korn joke it’s a joke i made irl and i thought it was fucking hilarious.

zeke.. is a stupid man sometimes really. he knows he’s blind as all hell and yet every morning without fail doesn’t put his glasses on and will stay that way for hours.despite barely being able to walk around the house without squinting. he.. insists on looking out the window to people watch.“someone moving in next door?”“no honey that’s a food truck”

likes burnt bacon?? idk i wrote this in the middle of making breakfast. yk that like olive theory thing where it’s like. person a hates olives and person b loves them therefor forming the perfect alliance. yeah corny but that’s you two. you hate burnt bacon and yet still occasionally burn it. he like, definitely only ate it at first bc you felt bad but after a while he starts to genuinely like it.

zeke loves loves to read with you. yk those like weird old dudes with like, secret libraries and offices no is allowed in. weird set up for this ik. but that’s not zeke like at all. you are more than welcome to “book shop” the tightly filled shelves. he will stay in there for hours and you really don’t want to disturb him. but he gets excited every time you do. letting you sit on his lap ice melted in his glass of scotch once you get his attention cause you told him to read you to sleep which he absolutely will. sometimes he wishes he could do the same with the kids you don’t have yet.

speaking of kids. oh brother he’s so good with kids. now to be fair having kids isn’t a big conversation in your household. you’ve had it before yeah but you’re both just kinda like, “i mean.. i guess?”. though you both can agree being the cool aunt and uncle is more than enough. but oh does that biological switch click when you see him with his nieces. now your brother in law is not a bad dad no not even close, but he has his struggles as a “girl dad” sadly. sparking a extremely close bond with zeke and his twin nieces. during your weekends with them you find them with perfectly ironed matching dresses and if you wake up late their hair is done in some brand new style too?? it.. is weird bc when did he take the time to learn how to braid?? you don’t even know how to braid. it’s sweet tho and pulls you to solidify your feelings of staring a family. don’t tell him tho because he will make it happen right where you stand.

he love love loves picnics. idk tbh i feel like it’s natural that the jaegers like picnics. anyway, when it’s not spring showers all week he’ll wake up early to make a basket. he would love going in the morning but after awhile you can’t handle being a morning person, so you settle for “brunch time”. if you’re out of groceries will opt in for heading to the farmers market ,cooking together at home and moving your picnic to your backyard. yes it was your first date if it isn’t obvious already.

actually maybe it’s just me but i think that zeke fully believes he’s like a comedic genius. he can’t go a second without making some corny ass joke. convinced he actively tries to get you with deez nutz jokes. like this man is literally a man child.“you know i don’t care for corn…actually i really like that band” “jesus zeke…” the room would probably be silent if he wasn’t already laughing hysterically at himself.

oh my god his morning voice. his voice in general actually like that rasp he has (from all those damn cigarettes probably) is just knee buckling. you hate when he talks too close in your ear. gives you a full body reaction just from him saying good morning. it just..sometimes he just sounds really sexy and you can barely focus.“so like fast forward a day later i told- are you even listening?”“hmm? yeah i’m listening hun” you weren’t, not at all. there isn’t a single part of this conversation you can remember the only thing in your mind is the filth that was falling out of his mouth last night. voice deeper, primal even while he fucks you. “yeah,that’s right keep begging for me just like that”“that deep enough for you hmm? greedy thing”“more huh? don’t start complaining when it’s too much”“you crying? shame, you asked for it so take it”“perfect pussy and it’s all fucking mine” “all mine to cum in too yeah?” “fuck- you like that don’t you? being full of me, s’filthy i love it”

HELLO so. for the dystopian au...

what are the mc's ages? your obviously still figuring out the timeline so it might be hard to say, but do you have any ideas?

and, bc i legally have to ask this one, where are the ninja and co? r they under the control of the overlords army or like. vigilantes? feel like you could do a lot with them here fr

ik the venom is infecting him but PLEASE tell me garma would never hurt his kids please my heart will break <3

what happened to rumis biological parents? did they still die in the g.d attack but at a different time bc. idk timeline shenanigans?

how are our kids gonna react whenever they learn about the gn prophecy? is morro still gonna go villain on us?

and, the two most important questions to ME, does morro see wu as a father figure, and do lloyd and rumi see Morro as an older brother/cousin figure??

srry for the question spam i just really like this concept <3<3<3

never apologize for question spams I love getting them!!

alright let's start

Morro's older than the green sibs and the green sibs are teens for exact ages I haven't figured that out yet.

so Ninja are around but none know each other (except nya and kai obviously) and they lead factions as they try to not die to Garmadon, he as usual doesn't care for them and just wants them out of the picture. None of them were taught how to use their elemental powers to they're all very destructive when they do, they've all learned of them but none know how to control them that well.

All the previous elemental masters were hunted down and killed. Rip them. so none of them know their parents/ have mentors. Jay has a very hazy memory of his parents leaving him with his grandparents (which he just calls ma and pa (ed and edna)) Kai remember's their faces but not much else, nya like Jay has a very hazy version that gets blended with Kai a lot, Cole remembers his mom (he has his dad...for now) and his dad tells him about her when he can, Zane doesn't remember his Dad as per usual.

So back to the factions they don't get along with each other, all preferring different things and not trusting each other. They may be young (young adults maybe) but they lead and make all the big decisions, keep rations and other stuff like that. There are other fractions too like Chen probably has one and other random people plus other's I'm probably just forgetting about right now.

so the ninja since they run into each other a lot, have bands that tell each person whose faction they're from ya know red, black, blue, and white. Nya's are with Kai, the two lead together.

Yes they're trying to defeat Garmadon but not heavily, like the ninja have never known a time without him, so while they want him gone they don't really know if that's possible. or I"ve just not given them enough thought yet. feel free to give any suggestions you have!

Garm would never it was a mix of Anger (things not going his way) the venom and the overlord that caused him to hurt lloyd, and like the split second after it happened garm was back in his senses and wanted desperately to help his son but Lloyd had ran off already.

so the g.d hasn't been released yet, none of the serpentine have, that'll change soon though, but yeah it hasn't been released yet, her parents are dead, they died in one of garm's attacks as he tried to kill the rebels. Or just people that get on his nerves.

And then he saw a child, a little girl all on her own, so Garm (cause he's still a softy) took her in, her being young just kinda went with it she didn't realize that Garm cause her parents to die, till later, she's not sure how she feels on this, while she loves and cares for garm he also killed her parents, so she has mixed feelings. but she also just likes to blame the venom for her parents deaths.

ok ok so when they learn if they lean before they cure him, they're not gonna like it, but no Morro wont go villain, why would he? he's never been told he was going to be the legendary green ninja so he's just like "Wait you mean to tell me that he has to fight his Dad?" he's as appalled as lloyd is to it, Lloyd very much just refuses to be the green ninja. Harumi's just worried why would lloyd have to kill their dad? He'd never their dad was nice!

Yes Morro's mostly refers to Wu as Dad sensei or master why talking about how he trained him and stuff like that. but mostly he just calls him Dad. And Yes Lloyd and harumi see Morro as their cool older cousin/brother, but hate it when he tells them stuff like "don't kill them!" or "no you are not allowed to maim them!" afhlksj Morro's the only one of the three to have morals and he's trying to teach the other two.

Hope that answered all the questions feel free to ask more if you'd like to

Just gonna drop this here 🤭

Oopsie

1. He's very overprotective of Sophie While yes she has almost died a bunch of times so has everyone else but he's most overprotective of SOPHIE

2. Sophie's telepathy is different because her mom (oralie) is an empath

What other ability is different than others people who have it

Inflicting......what does she shoot out her head......lighting.......what is Elwin.......a flasher

Case and point

3. In unlocked he said HIS LITTLE GIRL He could've phrased it ANY other way but he said HIS little girl

4. When he first met Sophie he was really disappointed that she was scared of him BECAUSE HE KNEW THAT WAS HIS DAUGHTER

5. When she got her ability reset the second time and Sophie was arguing with forkle about her biological parents Elwin goes "wait....you haven't told her yet....she deserves to know"

Like he wanted to tell her but he just wasn't allowed to say anything

6. He's never discriminated against her in the SLIGHTEST bit

Like Oralie never has because that's his DAUGHTER

7. I saw somewhere that in a deleted scene Mr.Forkle was the one who gave her Ella after she fell and hit her head when she was 5 and that Elwin could've been the one to give Ella to forkle to give to Sophie because of his MASSIVE stuffed animal collection

8. Mr.Forkle revealed one of his identities as magnate Leto to elwin out of the blue when it took the kids LITERALLY YEARS and to join the black swan before he told them

So why would he to elwin unless he was involved with the black swan before

9. As far as I know there is ZERO connection between Oralie and Elwin which is one of the hints forkle gave to Sophie bio parents1. He's very overprotective of Sophie While yes she has almost died a bunch of times so has everyone else but he's most overprotective of SOPHIE

10. In unlocked he says "there's a lot you don't know about me" what's THAT supposed to mean hmmm

11. Elwin seems to be EVERYWHERE he's not the only physician right? Cause it seems like it because of how much he's mentioned in memories in kenrics cache

12. Ik that the black swan already has a physician but I feel like it'd make sense to have connection to another just in case

13. Julie said she was recruited into the black swan by physic. She was looking for doctors with an open mind and asked elwin for recommendations. ELWIN told her to try physic if that's the BLACK SWANS doctor

14. It would've been a good way tk keep an eye on Sophie when she eventually comes to the Lost Cities. With him being the school nurse he would be able to see her and make sue she's alright (Although I highly doubt they expected her to be so accident prone)

15. On top of that, maybe that's a other way he made a deal with the black swan so he would be able to see his daughter and have a relationship with her

16. Just a hunch

I feel that Elwin is Sophie’s dad

Cuz he cares a ton for Sophie and during flashback his reaction to Sophie getting attacked is angry daddy bear.

I was juuuust reading Batcellanea chp138 - was in the middle of the part where Bruce's internal monologue was telling him he should keep Jason and he can take care of Jason, when it hits me : the voice in Bruce's head reminds me of Venom and lmao what if its like Venom but instead of killing people it just maliciously whispers at Bruce to keep adopting kids.

Thats it. That's the comment that I got on tumblr at 12.30am for. Cheers.

Oh my god. Yes. Some villain infects Batman with a parasite to turn him against the rest of Gotham but all it does is make him adopt kids.

Venom: Bruce. Broose. Come on. You know you want to. Bruuuuce. Bruce: he has parents. Venom: we can take care of that.

Venom: BRUCE Bruce: NO Venom: BRUCE Bruce: NO Venom: BRUCE I WANT-- Bruce: he is older than me I said no

Venom, cackling: our little brood goes bigger and brighter, all the little birds roosting in the nest, safe and warm and toasty-- Bruce: you're making it sound like you want to eat them

Jason eyeing the league members popping in on his cases just to see he’s still alive: “I am never going to be able to do anything illegal again”

It is very difficult to be a crime lord when the Justice League keeps showing up to coddle you.

This reminds me of one of my ideas of Batman deciding to dismantle the Red Hood's operations by just showing up and acting like a disappointed parent.

In response to the Jason being Bruce's biological son: I think there could be some cool and interesting new twists in this. But I still would cling to the Red Hood path. Because the whole idea of Red Hood is just so great. Coming back from the dead and waking up in his grave. Thrown into the Lazarus pit und realizing that his murderer never faced adequate justice is simply genius. Red Hood is an interesting character.

Red Hood is a fascinating character, but giving Jason a chance to live is also good, and seeing who he would've grown up into without the Lazarus Pit. And I can hear Ise shrieking distantly about killing her precious baby Jay.

idk but when jay is put in the lazarus pit, it heals his injuries but what it doesn't do is make him tall and muscular. so like he's still the tiny, skinny 15/16 year old he was because of the years of malnourishment. so he goes to gotham at like 17-19 years old, a formidable warrior, but TINY, smaller than dick himself and does the whole drug-lord business + it makes it easier for bruce + dick to work out who he is of course. this probably doesnt make any sense- anyway i love your work!! 💖

Oh my god, I am dying, this is a hilarious idea and I love it to pieces. The fearsome Red Hood being this snarky twerp. Tim is taller than him which is the real reason Jason is determined to end him.

Bruce, seeing a criminal in a red hoodie take on guys twice as big as him: why does this feel familiar?

ik you said it’s buried in your idea pile but i am very excited about the possibility of seeing a red hood vs the justice league face off !!!

For context, this is the table of contents of my idea doc.

Definitely not getting around to it any time soon, but here's a snippet:

“You’re Batman’s son?” Superman sounded especially pissed, and Wonder Woman’s eyes were narrowed slits. “Since when?”

“Forgotten the adoption party already, Uncle Clark?” Jason spat back, hurt and rage churning inside of him. It led to an easy rejoinder—a reminder that Jason had died in Ethiopia, and all of him didn’t come back, the best parts of him didn’t come back, that Bruce was clinging to a delusion and Jason wasn’t really his son, not anymore—

But Superman was frowning, eyes distant like he was looking through Jason—his eyes focused again, and he inhaled sharply.

Before Nightwing could move, Jason was upright and out of the chair, cold air blasting onto his helmet-less face.

“Jason,” Superman said in a voice of broken glass. Jason blinked—his restraints were gone and he was being squeezed to death by a sobbing alien.

“What—Uncle Clark?” Jason shot a bewildered look at Nightwing as Clark released him—what was happening—but didn’t manage to get out any more words before he was being swept into a another hug, courtesy of an Amazonian. “Ribs—Auntie—still human—”

“My brave bird,” Diana whispered, voice cracking, “You came back to us.”

picrew

look ik there’s other stuff i should be doing but i just stumbled upon duckyora’s picrew (link in text) again and hhh. imagination going nuts so have some picrews

1. sammy brisko (sonny brisko but female)

waifu i’m sorry i mean waifu? i mean mommy? excuse me i meant waifu? i mean-

i’m just a sucker for this picrew

2. bloody brisko

we had ponytail sonny in today’s stream:

and i couldn’t resist making ponytail sonny with blood spatters. you know i’m a sucker for blood spatters and boys with long hair, let’s not look at how sonny and sammy have the same outfit + facial features + bangs + hair if you take away the pigtails/ponytail

tbh i should’ve changed the eyes to smth a little more feminine for sammy and changed the kimono for sonny but you know what. it’s my picrew i do what i want! also i think it fits

3. maid sonny

i have no regrets. maid sonny art from touhou luna nights thumbjail was iconic like how do u look so badass in a maid dress?? tskr artist-san for that

also i just realized you can do neckmole but i’m too lazy to change oop so he looks more natural in this! i put neckmole on and i was like ah. this is the true sonny brisko (not maid sonny, just neckmole!!)

4. lunar dusko?

if you’re not already aware lunar dusko is fanmade ‘dark’ version of sonny brisko! you know how our sonnyshine is yellow and bright? well lunar dusko (aka moony) is Darkness his hair is meant to be purple but only blue was available also i’m not sure what he looks like actually LOL

i tried my best! yes he has half a billion ear piercings LMAO 

5. yugo asuma?? but sussy??

there weren’t any headphones HE LOOKS SUS 

like this is cute but i don’t think this is yugo. tbf bloody brisko doesn’t vibe like sonny either but maybe it’s the hair I’M SORRY THIS JUST DOESN’T VIBE LIKE YUGO TO ME

definitely got the ‘gender whomst’ part down tho

6. me!

or at least my preferred perception of myself bc god i wish i could keep bangs like that, bangs haven’t worked for me since i was eight and it’s been ten years also the hairs at the side in front of my ears are not as neat although goddamn i wish they were

also i’m a little tanner than that

7. oc celosia brandt!

the next few are all gonna be ocs from the same universe

celosia got genetically experimented on as a kid so she’s got the ability to control fire now. also the demon eyes + fangs represent how sometimes she loses control and goes so feral she literally becomes another person? came up with her quite a few years ago and i think she’s neat

like all of my oc main characters, she was meant to be based off my own personality but halfway through she deviated so much i didn’t recognize her anymore she’s kinda hyper now i think it’s the fire -> increased heat -> increased kinetic energy -> bouncing off the walls bc it feels like caffeine to her

i think i’ve thrown these ocs out somewhere? like shared them? but i can’t remember if it’s here or wp LMAOOO

8. oc sage carson

their personality is based off my friend (prankster, smug, sleep deprived and hiding the depression) and originally they were meant to be female but halfway through the entire concept of gender just kinda disappeared

they control metal, they’re the runaway biological bastard child of the dude who did all the genetic experimentation on the kids

they and cel become bffs later although they’re not the best of friends at first they’re chaotic besties / chaos creator + enabler now

9. oc lumi gillan

based off another friend of mine! i have her backstory and aesthetic but her personality rn is just “sheltered rich girl, lives in the mountains away from reality” i’m so sorry

if i remember correctly she has ice powers? but she can also have visions and see parts of the future and stuff? after fleshing her out a bit more i’m gonna give her a helluva character arc (but that’s only if i ever get to fleshing her out LOL)

10. oc alena willow

once again, based off an irl friend! kinda? i lost alena’s personality halfway through but she controls earth/plants? idk if she controls the soil, the plants, or the soil by controlling the plant roots

i know for a fact that she’s obsessed with social media and her phone she’s kinda like typical teen caricatures but. my irl friend used to do tiktoks and stuff she tried to drag me in once and i was like NYOOO NEVERRRRR and now i learned to dance on my own for fun. bwl, hip, dingga, dynamite, dumdi dumdi, thunderous, mafia in the morning and now wadada + tomboy go brr

if anyone notices all the identical chokers... it’s a mark of their genetic modification when they were kids ehehe it’s like a tracker or smth

11. oc saffi

saffi my beloved! she got the pointy ears coz she a goddess! she’s a knowledge goddess hence the lil caterpillar (coz bookworm ehehe)

before i thought she’d have children like with greek gods and stuff but she vibes a little too ace for that? maybe i’m projecting? personally i think she’s very pretty and nice and she blesses children with wrinkly brains

originally she was meant to be in the same verse as the trio above but now that i changed the verse a little i’m not sure where she fits in now OOF but i do like her a lot? she vibes a little like a lesbian to me too (haha, saffi -> sappho -> sapphic) which might be affecting that HAHA

now that you’ve seen my four Big OC Girls, will it surprise you to find out that they came from an au that me and my friends created when we were like 11 and obsessed with animal jam? saffi was actually based off lisa the panda, cel came from my in-game bunny (red + dark red fire patterns, fox hat, phantom claws, overall kinda badass i think)... i always ask my friend (sage) if our animal jam bunny identity characters were our fursonas and she always tells me NO. NOT TODAY, SATAN.

12. assassineko

she doesn’t have a name or a story i just know she kills people and she has heterophobia in her eyes

like sure she’s a catgirl but she’s a girlboss and she’ll kick your ass in half a second flat i think she was completely random / self indulgence when i created her sorry im just a helpless bi

if you came here for the sonny brisko and yugo asuma and found a whole bunch of ocs I’M SO SORRY LMAO you got sonny baitko-ed

[daisydays-26]

Part 3??!!! YES can’t stop thinking about these kids

South Park Headcanons

Leslie can actually speak all languages due to being a computer, but her favorites other than English are Japanese, Spanish, and Mandarin.

Cartman comes out as gay in high school. No one is really surprised, just more surprised that he came out.

Bebe was obsessed with fireworks as a kid and still has good ways of getting them in high school for wild nights.

Token has a lake house that he throws parties at. If he invites the right people they often don’t turn crazy and sour. But his favorite get together are with his group for a day on the lake.

The McCormicks used to sneak to a lake all the time as well when they had enough money or time for a day out. Karen, Kenny, and Kevin would hide in the bed of the truck under a tarp and Stuart would pay for him and Carol. They often ate fish they caught for lunch.

Karen finds out that Kenny is Mysterion once she turns ten. She’s not surprised and is more upset it took her so long.

Karen’s gets held back a year after all the legal drama due to failing her classes. She now winds up in the grade with Ike and is much more happy to have a friend.

Ike protects her from bullies, but most people don’t say anything to her.

Eventually all through middle school Ike developed a slow crush on Karen. He goes to Kyle for advice due to Kenny being his friend. Kyle laughs first and helps second.

He also has to swear to not tell because “it’s embarasssiiiinngggg.”

Leslie’s favorite show is WandaVision even if it makes her sad.

Her favorite music is Mitski and anything covered by vocaloids.

Craig really misses his biological mother. And one day he was caught up in thinking about it and broke down in front of his group. Everyone was concerned and asked him what was wrong because Craig rarely shows deep emotion or distress and he had to explain the whole thing to them, sobbing the entire time.

Afterward, Tweek along with Craig’s father try to track down their old home in Peru. Tweek actually finds it and plans a visit sometime in college. Craig doesn’t know where there going to entire time until they get on the plan. He starts flipping out but is really excited.

Once Tweek gets him to the house he immediately remembers and old memories come flooding back somehow. He breaks down and starts crying while going through the housr. It’s exactly the way he left it.

Clyde and Bebe are both obsessed with Taylor Swift. They’re also not scared to show it.

Butters works at a dog shelter with Karen. He’s like a second older brother.

Kenny and Kevin work at a car repair shop.

This is also how Kenny gets better at being a mechanic and learns to fix this old beat up truck, which then becomes his.

It’s orange of course.

Clyde really likes head scratches from Bebe. He especially likes it when she wears fake nails.

Speaking of which, Bebe treats her nails really good. And one time Clyde let’s his get painted by her bc it’s sort of thief love language.

Butters, although not completely blind, has really bad eyesight in the eye that got sliced open. He has these nice black and blue rimmed glasses he uses sometimes.

Craig had to get braces from 8th grade to 10th grade and complained about them.

Jimmy would always be salty when he did, due to having braces since he was 9 till he was 13. (Everyone hyped him up when he got them off. )

Shelly and Stan actually become really close after their parents start fighting again and eventually get divorced. “Listen Shelly, all we have is each other right now. I don’t want us to fight like them. Truce until further notice?” “Truce.” The truce never ends. :) (btw Shelly is 15 and Stan is 12)

I think this is more than enough. Enjoy!!

[wickedpact]

A ranking of all the TTT stories in order of how much I liked them.

(Oh god this is so long)

1 My Mother's Axe

BABY ANDYYYYYYYYYYYY. Honestly this one had the trifecta of developing a character's motivations, developing a character's backstory, & developing their personality. The story starting out with Andy teaching Nile to use the axe was so charming and fun, and you could feel that chemistry they had in Opening Fire, the way they teased and bickered with each other so naturally. I loved the wedge between them on the subject of the axe, how Nile was perhaps a little too young to understand Andy's feelings about whether or not its the 'same' axe. I also love how the axe is obviously the symbol of the franchise and hugely important, but you never get a sense of exactly how important it is to Andy until you read the story.

I love the entire Ship of Theseus theme, and how it feels so natural that for Andy she has to get attached to the idea of things rather than the things themselves because she'll always outlive the things themselves-- the axe is symbolically her mom's axe, even if physically it isn't. And I love how she clearly clings to that concept so tightly. "This is the labrys she held in her hands...." IT GETS ME.

And the fact that this sense of BELONGING, of FAMILY, of CULTURE is so important to Andy that she clings to it (figuratively and literally) with both hands. And of course it's important to her, she spent so long alone that the woman doesn't even remember her birth name. That axe (or the idea of that axe) is all she has left of her mother and that family/culture she was born into.

PLUS on that note I love how Andy doesn't remember if her mom was her actual biological mother, but it doesn't matter to her. This woman was her mother in all the ways that counted. And how her mom BETRAYED AND KILLED Andy but Andy loved her so much that she avenged her and carried her axe for thousands of years. THOUSANDS OF YEARS!!!!!!

I also loved how the story transcends the timeline of the whole franchise and seeing Andy through the years. Loved seeing her with the varying squads and with varying axes. Also baby Andy was so cute. It was cool seeing her so young. like holy fuck. Andromache The Scythian, Immortal Warrior (but smol). Love that.

Also I think this one is one of the few ttt stories that doesn't suffer from length problems.

tldr: goddammit greg you've done it again.

2 Zanzibar and Other Harbors

Zanzibar my beloved. I've said before, but it's downright comedic how little regard there was for Joe and Nicky's character designs in this story. The same person who does the colors for the regular comic did the colors for this one too, and you can tell, every panel of this story was Beautiful.

Ik there was A Lot of criticism of this one (lmao @ how the fandom had no idea what was to come) but I thought a lot of The Discourse was a bit dramatic. I did think Nicky came off as a little oblivious to Joe's feelings in this story, but I've said before, I honestly think that was a 'tone not translating' thing. It felt like Nicky was nagging Joe for [checks notes] saving innocent people, but Joe was so amused by Nicky's complaints I really do think it was supposed to come off as teasing.

Plus I know the 'Joe running off into danger and Nicky reluctantly following' dynamic wasn't popular (I'm a pretty meh on it meself) but I did love how Joe's impulsiveness (if you want to call it that) was interpreted as heroism and not hot-hotheadedness. All of the examples Nicky and Joe talked about included Joe explicitly saving people. (and it also took A Lot for the nazi to actually provoke Joe).

I also feel like their characterization here was closest to the movie canon-- the bit where they hear the woman scream and Joe goes running in to save her while Nicky swoops in on Joe's heels to comfort her while Joe and the nazi were fighting reminds me of the train car scene. Joe had suggested First that they go find Nile because she needed to be protected, and Nicky later added that Nile probably also needed emotional support. Similar reactions.

But it was So Good, the themes of queer community and the enduring nature of queer culture are Not themes you see in media that often and it was such a delight how it was done. Also it's one of the few more modern TTT stories that has a completely valid excuse for taking place when it did. Chef's kiss.

3 Passchendaele

I love the Duality between seeing baby Andy and then seeing Mama Andy in the very next issue. This story doesn't have a ton of meat to it, but the entire concept of Andy adopting a war orphan straight off the battlefield PLUCKS MY TENDER LITTLE HEARTSTRINGS, and I think it's especially poignant for comic!Andy. I think most people wouldn't think twice about movie!Andy doing something like that but comic Andy is so hardened and almost cruel sometimes, and seeing that even for her the world hasn't beaten all of the compassion from her yet is SO!!!!!!! this woman contains MULTITUDES okay, she's violent and angry and tired and Done but she's also so kind and compassionate and THE STRENGTH OF HER!!!!! Also the idea of her and Yitzhak co-raising a kid together is so damn cute. It was #mysterious pre-Yitzhak-story but now it's cute. holy fuck. It's cute.

& the headbonk panel of her and Zeus lives in my heart. anyways.

4 Many Happy Returns

I Know people weren't thrilled about Booker being in this one, but I've developed a pet-peeve about that: this story was *not* booker-centric. Booker only exists in this story to the extent required to explain the importance of the gesture Nile makes towards him. If there was a story about Booker making some grand gesture of kindness to Nile no one would be saying it was Nile-centric. bc it wouldn't be! Booker exists in this story to explore Nile's kindness, its not about him. I saw that a couple times and it bothered me. anyways.

AAAAAAAAAA I loved this one, the art was beautiful, I loved how Andy Nile and Booker were drawn (like their comic selves but.. more looking like actual people). I loved Andy and Nile's Bants, how Andy wanted to jump right in and Do Violence but Nile was basically telling her to hold her horses.

I feel like I'm just repeating the post I made on this story a few days ago, but I LOVED how Nile's plan revolves not around violence or Cool Mercenary Skills but on Nile's own life skills (as she canonly did a lot of minimum wage job-hopping before the marines in comics canon). Her plan used her skills, not the skills of an immortal warrior, and HER SKILLS were in fact more useful for the situation! lov to see Nile's resourcefulness and planning skills.

AND HOW NILE WAS PROBABLY WATCHING BOOKER??? it's so Much bc 1.) nile knew booker A SINGLE DAY and yet he made such an impression on her emotionally that she had to keep an eye on him and 2.) she said in the movie she wanted Booker to get off free with an apology. Yes she's a member of the team but that doesn't mean she's necessarily going to follow orders like a good little soldier. I also love how she convinced Andy to go along with it. her HEART, her KINDNESS, her THOUGHTFULNESS, UGH.

5 The Bear

Honestly I have like no negative things to say about this one other than a.) character design issues which is less about the story itself and is more of a 'tog comic in general' criticism and b.) too short, but it was supposed to be a tease, so.

But I loved Yitzhak, I wasn't expecting to really like him at all but like I said in my other post, he tickled me. I love characters who are Kind™, especially if they have little reason to be so given their backgrounds. Chef's kiss. Lov him.

6 Bonsai Shokunin

I know this one was a little controversial bc of the outsider POV but whenever I see people upset about that they never point out that the Outsider Guy (the samurai) existed as a reflection on Noriko. His ideas are explained in the text to develop hers. The whole story follows how she gave mercy to a scared young man and in response he murdered Noriko, repeatedly! Who gave him the right to inflict such pain and suffering on the world? In his opinion, the lack of response from the gods was his permission. And for Noriko-- over and over again she dies and suffers because she gave mercy, which lines up with her ideas in FM about how it's their fate to rule mortals and if they don't align with that plan/fate/whatever then they suffer. It shows some background to those ideas and how they developed in her mind outside of Ocean Madness™. Additionally, his idea of 'the Gods have done nothing to strike me down so it's fine if I do these things' kind of explains how Noriko may justify her own morally corrupt actions-- she's died so many times and it's never stuck. Maybe if she did die any of those times, or while she was in the water, maybe that would've been a sign she was doing something right, or at least doing something normal. But she hasn't died. Fate isn't done with Noriko yet. And maybe there's a reason for that. In her mind, it's just not a very pleasant reason, is all.

There were things I was kind of meh about tho. I did kind of wish we saw something of Noriko and the team, or smth explaining the way she was before her dip in the pool-- personality, likes dislikes, etc. but it wasn't bad or anything. It was super vague tho, I had to read it a few times before I got what it was going for. Liked the art. Liked the bonsai metaphor. And of course I Respect the decision to use the 1300s (1200s? I don't remember off the top of my head) rather than using the last 200 years.

7 Strong Medicine

Honestly looking back, this one made me kind of sad because both this one and Bonsai Shokunin explored character's ideas on Fate and The Divine and how that intersects with immortality and I totally thought that theme would be continued, especially with Love Letters. But Then It Wasn't™.

Admittedly.... I had to re-read this one to remember most of it. I liked Booker's ideas on God, 'The conductor of the symphony just may not be very good at his trade' but the plot itself was kind of forgettable. Some fuckin cowboys try to kill a doctor (their second) because he couldn't save their sickly brother. Book tries to stop them, gets killed, and then comes back and kills them all before they get the doctor. Alright. I liked the artstyle because the characters were ugly in a similar way that leandro's are, but way more bearable.

I love the Irony of Booker concluding that there is no such thing as fate or destiny and nothing has meaning, AS HE UNKNOWINGLY SAVES MERRICK'S GRANDFATHER FROM BEING KILLED. Booker getting fucked over by life/god/destiny yet again. It also kind of explains about where the fuck hell Merrick's interest in immortal mercenaries even came from.

I originally had this one a lot higher and then I thought about it and moved it down like two spots.

8 Never Gets Old

I liked seeing Booker interact with his kid. And we got a name for the kid! Philippe was a little bitch though, he was a little obnoxious. I liked how Booker was so thrilled to experience a restaurant with his kid (and since we know he was there before, it can be assumed he went with all of his kids and yet he was so charmed each time). It fits with his line to Nicky in the moon landing story about how you don't appreciate beautiful things 'unless you have someone to share them with'. It was charming to see Booker interact with his kid, and to see him so happy. Also lmao @ Booker's big fat Ye Olde Crush on Andy.

However at the same time it was like.. of all the things to write about,,, I guess? Booker's Night Out...... alright. Especially since Book had so many stories.

I don't know, it was alright. The old man killing him really came out of nowhere, (but the 'Salut, asshole!' panel was funny tho).

9 How To Make a Ghost Town

I've hit a point where talking about these stories has gotten less fun. I liked this one but I felt like Achilles getting lynched was not really necessary for a story that was already tragic (a story that already involved Achilles doing a lot of suffering at the hand of bigots). When we first got the blurb for this story I thought it would be about Andy returning to the squad and making friends with Booker after losing Achilles and them butting heads on the idea of family and when to cut off ties. So a little bit of my underwhelmedness about this one might be just my expectations being different.

Honestly I was pretty interested in Andy and Achilles' relationship and I would've liked to see more of them-- like, what was their dynamic like? What did they love about each other?

But anyways Andy leaving and Achilles getting killed anyways feels so pointlessly tragic (which I suppose is the point..... I don't like tragedies) she left to save him and yet people killed him anyway. Meh.

I did love the bits about Andy wanting to have a domestic life (Andy and her multitudes again) and the little detail about how she buried her axe near the road but he buried his guns under his bed-- he was an escaped slave, he never had the luxury of assuredness like Andy did. It was a sad story.

10 Lacus Solitudinis

'You put this one above love letters crim??? how could you???' easy, lmao.

There was stuff in this one I liked. But to talk about stuff I didn't like: (I'll keep it brief, I know ragging on this story has been done time and time again)

UH, setting aside the 6 year cold shoulder between Joe and Nicky, I thought their chosen method of conflict resolution was... bad at best. Nicky's inability to talk about his feelings was also annoying, especially since the entire point of this story is a fight Joe and Nicky had, and yet we don't get both sides to the story, which is...... important? That fact is especially annoying bc in the absence of Nicky explaining his side of the story, it's absolutely a possible (and admittedly probably unintentional) interpretation of the text that we do get that Joe routinely resolves conflict between him and Nicky by simply cutting Nicky out of his life entirely until Nicky just. caves? Even if it takes years?

WHICH i could get into that interpretation and how fucked up i find it. but im not going to. out of restraint.

I don't know, I think there are a lot of interesting ways to go about this conflict but 'Nicky wants to kill a guy and Joe refuses to acknowledge his existence until he stops because he thinks Nicky is too much of a Good Boy to get his hands dirty like that' ('I wont watch as the world turns his (...) compassion into something ugly'. ) wasn't.. how I would've done it. (I mean you know Joe doesn't give a shit about what Nicky is doing in a moral way, because Joe doesn't even care or mention that Booker is killing those cops too. Joe only cares because he doesn't like the idea of Nicky changing in a way he finds undesirable.)

admittedly I've said before, I do like the emphasis Joe's reaction puts on Nicky's kindness. Joe has a complete inability to cope with Nicky simply Not Being Kind. It speaks to the steadiness of Nicky's compassion all those years. but still that fact doesn't make it the conflict feel worth it

hm. I said I would be brief and I wasn't.

oh well. basically I thought there was interesting conflict potential there but it wasn't done the way I would've liked, and the way it was done leaves a lot of disturbing (and again probably unintended) interpretations to lie.

What I did like? Andy and Joe having that pessimist/optimist dynamic. Joe nerding out about science. Andy not being impressed by The Achievements Of Man. I loved Booker needling at Nicky about his outdated slang and also trying to give him Older Brother advice practically in the same breath. I loved Booker giving The Worst relationship advice ever and Nicky being like 'I Will Not Do That, Ever, Thanks.' the family vibes were so good. The Joenicky vibes left a lot to be desired tho.

11 Love Letters

I talked about my problems with Nicky in this story (and Lacus Solitudinis). I don't know, the story isn't bad but I do hold a little bit of a grudge towards it because its very existence begs the existence of a solo Joe story and we didn't get one. If we never got this story, then we could happily count Lacus Solitudinis and Zanzibar as The Joenicky Stories™ and move on with our lives. sigh.

I remember when we first got the blurb for this story I was really curious about why Nicky specifically + the setting, and the answer kind of feels like 'the author had an idea for a story like this and saw ttt as a good enough place to utilize that idea'. Plus I was really underwhelmed by the Romantic Sentiment in the letter. If you look at it line-by-line, the majority of the letter is actually Nicky talking about how lonely and disturbed he is, rather than actual,, yknow,,, Romantic Sentiment. I mean, compare the van speech and this letter and this letter is just kind of meh in comparison. I liked nicky calling joe wise! and I liked the brief sun/moon metaphor! and otherwise it was eh. It didn't even have cute squad banter, which is why Lacus Solitudinis is above this one.

12 An Old Soul

Nun orgy. Nun orgy?????? Nun orgy.......

The whole story felt like a setup to have a nun orgy. Why did Booker have abs? Why did they do that to Andy's nose? ?????? the art was good at least.

nun orgy.

[approximately20blorbos]

hi hello hi ik how it feels to be writer bored seeing as its my default state so i will attempt to cure ur writer bored!!!!

whats a small detail of your wip that you like a lot? what about a big one? does your wip play with symbolism? name meanings?

aaaaa thank you!! and name meanings I am hhsgshsgsvshsvs yes the names have meanings I am going to answer this out of order because oh bOY

so first of all instead of a last name, shining elves use a prefix on the first (and only!) name to indicate lineage (which can be traced through either biological parent, but if it applies smoothly, it goes by sex assigned at birth. trans people can choose whether to change their name to the other parent if they want, and you don't necessarily have to be trans to do that either, but that is generally how it goes. same sex couples able to conceive naturally generally settle naming their kids on a case by case basis.) but anyway. that prefix tends to be a noun and related to nature of some sort. for the first 20 years of a shining elf's life, they have no name, but instead a placeholder of sorts that just means child. then, when they turn 20, the Eldest and the people closest to them get together and figure out what their name will be based on their personality. It can be changed later too, if it turns out not to fit, because elves consider having a meaningful name to be incredibly important. so with that being said—

Regaya: I'm not sure what her lineage translates to, but it's probably something culturally important given that she's descended from royalty. so probably something to do with stars. her actual name, though, means agency. it wasn't always her name, and I'm not sure what her name was before she had it changed, but it was probably something docile or sweet. so she met with the Eldest and had it changed to what it is now

Immor: the first part of Immor's name means sunlight! the second part is most commonly translated to indomitable, but Immor would be more happy to describe it as meaning resilient, perseverant, steadfast, or a similar word because he feels that the common translation paints a more infallible picture of himself than he necessarily agrees with. and I do think he has conflict with his name at times—I think it gets exhausting, to identify with his ability to overcome when all be really wants is to exist peacefully with his family

Immerlias: the prefix is the same, and the suffix means joy! he's extremely happy with this, which you can probably guess is in-character, given that he was named after.... happiness. yeah. this will definitely cause some internal strife later in the narrative when he starts having to deconstruct some of his naive attitudes towards the world and overcome a dark time in his life, but eventually he will come to identify even more strongly with his name because of it

Aryaea: the prefix means bushfire, and honestly, I haven't really picked a steady meaning for the suffix. this one's harder bc she shares a name with one of Immor's old friends (now deceased) so I have to decide what they have in common that is so significant to both of their personalities, and honestly I think it's the escapist tendencies but I don't know how to spin that into a positive light with a concise meaning. adventurous, maybe?

and now to the other questions!! a really small detail I like in the very small amount that I've properly written is that in an early chapter, Immerlias is writing in his journal and spills ink on the word "happy," so he has to rewrite it. Forshadowing™️

as for a big detail, I've been working on worldbuilding out this group of nomadic people whose warriors are exclusively made up of werewolf monks who have sworn not to have any more children once they've contracted lycanthropy and joined the military/monastery, based on the belief that lycanthropy should only be a choice taken with informed consent and so to have children born naturally with the condition would go against that. the detailing here is shallow thus far but in my dnd games Aryaea typically ends up a werewolf eventually which has some really great symbolism for her has a character so I'm really excited and happy to have a reason to put it in the actual wip as well

and finally, yee, I do think my wip plays with symbolism, on levels both internal and mildly allegorical. the allegory is that capitalism bad (/hj) and then there's smaller scale stuff like using the sun as a symbol for Immerlias at times, and then there's mid tier stuff like Aryaea's lycanthropy that I think just goes really well with her specific brand of mentally-ill. I will happily ramble more about that last bit if you want me to but I have already typed So Much lmao and I already must thank you for helping cure my writey boredom :)
