Are those little dolls made to look like 3zun as animals in the most recent comic? I need to know how/when Nie Mingjue got those. Are they gifts from Lan Xichen or Nie Huaisang? Did Jin Guangyao sew them himself and stuff them full of evil talismans in case the song didn't work? So many possibilities.
Tumblr media
The 3zun dolls were a self-indulgent reference to this (previously abandoned) doodle! As for who made them in universe? I'll leave it up for interpretation B*)

Oh no. Don't let me start plotting out a Leverage Redemption / Moon Knight crossover. I don't need more wips. Help.
#IT WOULD BE SO EASY THOUGH#like fucking up someone who's collecting or trafficking stolen antiques has been. multiple leverage episode plots.#guess who steals back stolen antiquities from the black market & associated private collections to (mostly) return them? layla#there are So Many oh shit we have to change the con moments you could do. just layla showing up alone#at least someone on the crew - eliot and parker probably - would recognize someone who's known to have pissed off the black market in cairo#and the scramble of how do we deal with her and how the mark will be reacting to her being here#and if we go post mk s1#then it's OH SHIT SHE'S A SUPERHERO. SHE JUST FLEW OUT OF HERE. OKAY.#breanna pulling up cell phone footage on youtube from the cairo incident like holy shit#she's the scarlet scarab. oh this makes so much sense now of course.#hardison comes back because no way they get into superhero shit without him#(various commentary on past superhero encounters here. hardison has probably tried to hack avengers tower.#sophie probably has conned tony stark in the pre iron man days#eliot has fought aliens he's had some sort of interaction with shield for sure)#harry gets to be delightfully bemused and also the stand in for all of us who have lost track of the five million mcu projects.#i know the avengers i think which one did you say this one was? is she new?#and then you get the wait what about thor - the norse AND the egyptian gods?#if layla is working with mark and steven you then also get them which would be fantastic to bounce off the leverage crew#and if you want to make everyone's life more complicated#set it in a situation where mark and steven (and layla) know m&s have a third alter but have not worked out how to get on speaking terms#and this situation winds up dangerous enough that jake fronts and goes moon knight to save their asses#and like. marc and steven get to find out from a bunch of people they just met that#yeah we saw the third guy#and uh. there was some weird shit. are you sure you're done with your superhero god shit.#so they have to deal with THAT#probably to have stakes like that itd be something like there was something from the chamber of the gods that one of harrows followers took#like the ushapti of another god or something similarly powerful and dangerous#and you have the oh shit of it being something with that kind of power and danger like. right as it's gotten away from them.#squire in a cupcake van#let's go steal a squire

THE TENT WAS HUGE . bigger on the inside than link had quite anticipated . light streamed down , glowing a golden color through the canvas stretched high overhead . streamers and flags decorated the ceiling , fluttering with the movement of patrons and the round fans mounted to every other post .
THE PLACE WAS LIVELY . so , link was glad that sora had come along for the ride . all of the hullabaloo matched the kid's energy in the best of ways .
BOTH BOYS HAD DETOURED for a brief pit stop , grabbing sandwiches as they looked over the market map displayed on the sheikah slate . if not to catch their bearings again , then certainly to allow link the chance to rest his leg .
Tumblr media
AROUND THE CRONCH OF an apple : ❝ the pyrite triplets say i carry a lot of ANTIQUES - ❞ begrudgingly , link zoomed in on one of the shop icons as he rolled his eyes - ❝ so i guess we should try an antique store next ? maybe you'd find something there too if you're looking for knickknacks , sora . ❞

Person A is pawnshop owner who works with Person B, an exiled god who smuggles godly relics and items from other realms and is very good at locating them in the human world. Person A gives Person B a place to stay off the radar of other gods, since Person A has a blessing that makes them undetectable to any supernatural entity and it rubs off on those around them, so as long Person B stays in their vicinity frequently, they will be indistinguishable from a normal human. Normally, Person B would be an easy target to any supernatural hunter without Person A’s gift, but is able to live a relatively normal and mundane life. But in exchange, they help Person A acquire real and genuine relics to sell to their more high paying customers. Person A doesn’t care about the money though, since their true passion is just collecting silly and pointless antiques, and the only way to keep their shop running without financial stress is to have some very expensive items for those who know how to ask.

Plot Hook
Tumblr media
The city of Damascus is the PCs next stop in my Age of Antiquity campaign. One of the plot-hooks is that they learn about a hidden well in the city has magical properties that grant those who drink it immunity to fire damage for up to a week. A cult of Ishtar jealously guards the well, but the local Roman praefectus in charge of the legionaries and local Syrian auxiliaries suspects its existence. Players may choose to get involved to help the cult or help the Romans.

Me and @rebloot were like "let's watch bad bl animes and laugh at them" and the one we wanted to watch we couldn't find online to pirate so im like "Uh uh uh let's watch Antique Bakery that looks sorta mid let's see what it's about" and like we're 5 episodes in and OH MY FUCKING GOD WHY ARE WE SO EMOTIONALLY INVESTED, I ACTUALLY HAD TO STAND UP AND TAKE A WALK AROUND MY BASEMENT CAUSE OF A EPISODE AND LIKE THE DRAMA WAS TOO MUCH I WAS LIKE SO PISSED BUT IN THAT GOOD WAY OF EMOTIONALLY INVESTED YA KNOW. I am having such a love hate love relationship with this anime dear god, as rebloot says "it's kinda outdated but also really really funny". Like some moments I do have to be like WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH WHAT IS HAPPENEINGGGG STOPPPPP NOOO and others im like "YOU'RE GAY ACCEPT IT YOU'RE A HOMOSEXUAL AND OWN IT" and punching the wall. We also do not remember a single name so we've been referring to them as "gay guy, sunglasses guy, boxer and main guy" we do not stand a chance bruh. Also WE'RE REALLY REALLY HUNGRY IM STARVING IM SALIVATING

Vampires can't see themselves in mirrors because they used to be backed with silver.
Ergo, your modern vampires should have no issue with seeing themselves in the mirror, unless the mirror is an antique.

it's been so weird to play dai again after finishing trespasser bc like... I already knew from the end game that he's the dread wolf and that he lied (by omission, as is his way) to everyone throughout the whole game. the utterly tragic dynamic between him and a romanced lavellan was ROUGH.
but y'know what's been the most painful, what made even the next playthrough really hurt?
his agents.
he has agents. he gathered them. they've infiltrated the inquisition and presumably elsewhere. I guess... maybe that one hurt more because it was a total surprise to me, but that aches.
he's not necessarily working against the inquisition, just toward his own goals, which may or may not lead to the destruction of the current world, but it's so... idk. it hurts. you're traveling with him and he has his agents and he's doing his thing.
it's really not that different from everyone else... until/unless he's declared tal-vashoth, bull is obviously associated with the ben hassarath. leliana has far more agents than you could ever know. morrigan is nothing but secrets. varric kept hawke secret and is very possibly keeping his other friends secret. vivienne has secrets and ploys throughout the whole game. sera has the red jennies. dorian might be one of the only companions with no current connections, but he eventually returns to tevinter and establishes his own political movement. blackwall's entire fucking arc.
not all of these are bad, granted. but it's also like... solas really isn't that different. so why does it hurt so much? maybe it makes everything he does feel more... idk, deliberate? maybe it's bc it paints a picture of an "active" betrayal rather than a "passive" one? maybe it's bc now it's undeniably happening during the events of the game, rather than before and after the main plot? maybe because it makes it clear that he never really stopped, even head over heels in love and desperate to confess?
I genuinely don't know why it bothers me so much. I've given it a lot of thought and not come up with a satisfactory answer.
but I do know that its spawned ~65k words of bigfic that's still growing

@flmed gets a starter !
Tumblr media
They shift uncomfortably in the chair, trying not to look as out of place as they feel in this elegant foyer. "Sorry, I don't usually deal with the ... business stuff and I have to admit I'm a bit lost here. My brother is occupied and I came on his behalf." Disappeared as per usual would've been more accurate, but Will chokes that comment down ( no bad word about Jacob will leave his mouth, he's a good brother after all ).
