🍷 Kirbtober 2024 Day 22: Ship or Hangout 🍷

(ID: Kirby series fanart of Daroach and Dark Meta Knight overindulging on “fancy grape juice” together, their faces brightly flushed from the several bottles standing empty around them. The thief sits with a glass held loosely in one paw, laughing and resting the other paw on the unmasked knight’s head as he lays sprawled over Daroach’s torso, disgruntled but not particularly inclined to move, his wing lazily draped over them both. END ID.)

“Ha! Who's the *hic* lightweight now, sunshine?”

“Mmrrghshuddup. Smartass rat with your stupid pretty mouth stupid mmghngh..."

in the amelia pond au, amelia’s aunt does still send her to therapy between doctor adventures, but since amelia is now secure in the fact that he’s Definitely Real since both rory and mels have also met him and because she lost a tooth last week from tripping on the stairs of the tardis, she doesn’t bite any therapists this time around. and besides, her therapist is a very funny lady. she reminds amelia of her doctor, with how her voice will flip and jump in volume and accent and tone on a whim, with how she’ll talk to amelia like they’re conspiring together. she keeps the pictures amelia draws of the doctor and their adventures for her, even hangs one or two on the walls. she listens very intently to every detail, which no adults in amelia’s life do save the doctor himself and river song, whenever she’s around. and best of all, whenever she tells amelia’s aunt that amelia is doing just fine, don’t you worry, she’ll grow out of this, she winks at amelia so that amelia will know her therapist is only playing along to wave away her aunt’s suspicion.

it is a little odd, though, that she insists on only being called Missy. but amelia is quite used to odd by now.

You have no idea the excitement I had reading the latest swanettello comic.

It was a small theory I made this last night. It was that Swanatello is kinda like a clone while real Donnie’s soul is stuck at the bottom of the lake.

To be clear, I JUST NOW saw the latest posts on Aug. 15th, 7:27pm. I was so freaking happy I could do so much lol

OHOHO. I do agree he may need some help.

Things do get better.

Life can be cruel and unforgiving, like a writer killing off the most beloved characters and making everyone suffer through a lot. Yet every bad moment eventually shall pass.

We don't stop reading a book, just because the writer made things seem grim for a bit. We shouldn't stop living just because we're afraid it'll get worse.

Things can go badly, sure, but they can also turn out for the better. You can also survive.

Even giving up for a day, a month, a year, does not mean your life is not worth living.

It doesn't mean you're gonna be stuck here forever. It just means that for now, maybe for a long time now, things have been rough.

And you need a break, and a hug.

And someone to tell you, that you are very much loved, even if Life (as the most bitter and inspired writer) has decided to take it out on you.

You are loved, you're not weird, and you deserve good, beautiful, lovely things.

au where john is tricking gretchen into thinking she’s got her disease that i can’t remember the name of, but in reality he’s poisoning her medicine. is this anything (i can’t remember if i’ve submitted this ask before but i think not?)

MUNCHAUSEN BY PROXY FREASAS⁉️

[chatdae]

Grace FUMBLED Ryan! BAD parenting to preach respect and then act contrarily (ie saying she wants him to feel safe, then not allowing him any autonomy). She should've let him leave and come back... or at least explained why she didn't want him to leave before deciding (ex: 'Homelander will kidnap you', etc). She needed to let him make the decision for himself... agh. AAAAA.

And now Butcher's no use because he's committed to being evil and can't offer ANYTHING good to Ryan!!! He was so right, they NEEDED to give Ryan more space... I know the external pressures seemed impossible, but dammit, Grace, this was no way to beat the odds!

(this is about The Boys season four)

your headcanons and meta posts are getting me so invested in iterator lore again! i'm reading through all the pearl dialogue for the first time now and there's some fascinating stuff in there

I'm so happy me talking way too much about this game's lore is interesting aa I was worried to push my own hcs at first onto people, but genuinely I'm so so excited to share things.

[myrathefarmer]

Hi Myra! I just want you to know that your art is amazing, it's so enjoyable to see your progress, you have such a gorgeous and fun style it's amazing

I'm not sure how to talk about it since I'm not an artist myself, but watching you create is an inspiration

Even though I'm not in the fandom that often lately I'm always happy to see any of your posts when I pop on by social media

Thank you for sharing what you create ❤️

This means everything to me 😭 I love sharing my progress and I love sharing my art, and I’m so so happy you love it too 🥺 Thank you so much, I super appreciate it 💖

sometimes your favorite song is by the idol group you see every time you go to tokyo but they haven't released it to streaming and they're quite obscure (not to mention taping performances is extremely NG in jpop idol culture) so the only time you have a chance of hearing it is when you go watch them perform and it's like not even guaranteed that it'll be on the setlist every time and then you find out it's actually by a disbanded sister group of theirs and they also didn't release it to streaming but they did put it on youtube in a 20 minute long video that features their entire first mini-album except for some reason it's the absolute worst quality vocals you've ever heard on a professional recording as in not the mic quality but the actual singing quality as in it sounds like a group of friends doing karaoke not even professional singers just some friends with no retakes no autotune touchups not even re-recording the lines that are off rhythm but it still means you kinda get to hear the song in your apartment. but is it even really the same song as the one you hear when your favorite member gets the solo in the chorus and walks from the back of the stage out towards the audience between the rest of the members as if parting the sea. is it

11, 14, 18, & 27!! for etheara questions :D

YEAAAA Toby I owe you my life <3333

11. If they had a pet or magical familiar as in ESO (excluding the dogs in Skyrim) what creature would it be?

So!! First off-- he does actually have a horse. Her name is Cinnamon and he gets her in Windhelm to travel to Winterhold. And second off, in Heavenfall, before we saw Etheara at all he was established to have a service animal for mental health reasons since he seemed to struggle w psychosis and would steal from the library & then lock himself in his dorm for days on end. The way I'm translating this is by using a nix-hound!

They're native to Morrowind, and physically massive enough to get in the way of Etheara engaging w his triggers (books). Also look at it. That thing's got 0 brain cells <3

14. What is their personal favourite place in Skyrim- a town, hold, home, dungeon, or just a natural spot they happen to have a fondness for?

Etheara loves the hot springs by Windhelm! I'm p sure he hates the cold, so he also loves the areas closer to the Cyrodiil border, too, like Falkreath. I think the dude needs to relax a little bit though, so, while I haven't actually played through a game where he spends much time there, I like to imagine him & his little party chillin over there together :)

18. Your Dragonborn is now an actual dragon- what do they look like? Do they possess any unique features or abilities?

[GRIPS THIS] So I went and did a bunch of research on the anatomy of TES dragons because I wanted to describe a unique take on it. So first, let's start with a serpentine dragon base:

But rather than blue undertones, I would want green undertones I think.

Next, I'd want him to have more eyes because of his strong connections to Hermaeus Mora. More on his face for sure; but I think I'd want it to be a situation where the more you look, the more you realize that he is covered in them. Maybe they're mostly closed; but I think that whenever they open, they are off looking in a different direction for a second before centring on You, y'know?

Idk I think I would also want him to bleed black goop. I'm not 100% sure about any special abilities but something that drains Intelligence would probably be really fitting :)

27. If your Dragonborn were an in-game boss fight, what would their lair be like? What enemies would help them in the fight (if any) and what quest might lead to another hero having to fight them?

I LOVE THIS QUESTION because here's the thing: Etheara does actually have a "boss fight" in Memoir Maormer.

Some context for that is that I found Ancano to be an extremely entertaining but also an extremely shallow and stupid character, boring in every way other than personality. So I wanted to spice him up. I presented him with a character to bounce off of (Kyryi, the Maormer in question), and I gave him motivation for him to do the things he does. Is "motivation" the right word? I fleshed out his actual thoughts and feelings on the Thalmor's goals and considered how much he knew about their end goals AND considered how much he agreed with those end goals; I thought about his loyalty to them and his specific placement at the college- Idk I thought about a lot of things.

What I came up with is, I think, extremely interesting-- but this is not about what I've done to Ancano, this is about Etheara! So part of the reason Ancano responds the way he does to the Eye of Magnus is because of Etheara-- because Etheara is being influenced/watched by Hermaeus Mora, and that maddening drive to acquire knowledge is contagious & exacerbated by sheer nature of being at a school. Ancano and Etheara, who have exactly none emotional intelligence, are both very deeply affected by the Vibes. So they both become obsessive and territorial over the Eye, and it's their informal rivalry on the matter that provokes Ancano to act in the College.

But as I said in my previous post, Etheara is not the hero of this story-- he stays right by the Eye himself, locked in a stalemate with Ancano. It's Kyryi that takes off to Labyrinthian to acquire the Staff; and when he gets back, Etheara has bested Ancano and is looking to take the Eye's secrets for himself (/Hermaeus Mora). So Kyryi fights Etheara in this situation.

BUT! That's not what this exercise is about-- that's just genuinely part of his story.

I think if he had a lair, it would take the shape of a Telvanni mushroom tower; but when entered, is dizzyingly bigger on the inside. Same vibes as when you go into any of the Vivec City compounds for the first time. He would reside at the top of the tower, but getting there would involve solving a lot of puzzles (and that's probably why he's trapped at the top; he could not solve those puzzles himself lmao). The closer you get to the top, the more everything starts to look like Apocrypha-- the walls start to be made out of books; the lighting is green; there is a black ooze on the ground and I imagine there's an acrid scent in the air.

I think that he would be able to summon Seekers to help him fight :) That would be cool

The story that I imagine leading up to this would be an AU where either Kyryi denies Etheara when he asks for help, or one where Etheara never asks for help at all. Etheara's greatest flaw is that he sees himself too much as the "helper friend" to ever let himself be helped in kind-- so as time goes on and his connections to Apocrypha strengthen and his grip on reality weakens, he ends up in a position where he has one last chance to ask for help before his mind-- before the holes in his psyche can never be repaired.

The reason he has this crisis of conscience is because his travels have lead him back to Solstheim, back to a place that looks and feels like home; and has, coincidentally, lead him back to Kyryi. He doesn't remember the end of what happened at the College; but he remembers Kyryi's unique ability. Surrounded by this familiarity, and the certainty of being seen, Etheara is able to pull himself together for a couple of days. His travelling companion at the time, Melanarto, goes to Kyryi and begs him to help-- and in exchange, Melanarto will pull some strings with the sailing company he used to work for in order to get Kyryi back home to Pyandonea.

Kyryi turns down the offer, unless Etheara himself asks him for help. He is not eager to get involved in Etheara's business again-- not after almost losing Ancano. In this AU, Etheara either wouldn't ever ask him; OR Etheara asks him, and he turns it down anyways. So Kyryi never goes home; and him and Ancano are taking refuge in Solstheim, hiding from the Thalmor.

Years and years later, the contagious effect that was seen at the College is ravaging Solstheim-- particularly Raven Rock. And I think Ancano would once again start to succumb; and in a horrific way, he sees and knows what is happening to him, but there would be nothing he could do to prevent this. And Kyryi, watching the love of his life twist this way, would find the strength to go after Etheara, and put an end to him once and for all.

I think that he would have to make the first move against Etheara. I think he's surrounded by books, swirling in a tempest all around him that he looks over, not understanding, flitting back and forth and holding the information without absorbing any of it. But ultimately, Etheara is a pacifist at heart, so he wouldn't attack you for entering his space; he wouldn't attack you if you spoke to him, or disturbed him, or even attacked him directly-- no, you'd need to hit him where it hurts: the only friends he has left: his books.
