the genocide is fucking crazy bc at the end of the day it's so extremely xenophobic. like it is genuinely unthinkable for this to happen to a western or white-passing country. it would be shut down so quick
#fearandhatred#like do you think any government in the world would stand for people in america being constantly bombed and killed and starved#but because it's happening in some other area of the world that these people have never thought of or knew existed before in their lives#it's so alien to them that they're not even considered human beings anymore#like do y'all realise how fucked up that is#palestine#free palestine

Good reveal au, where after learning phantom's identity and realizing the atrocities that the GIW have committed (or alternatively, ethical science au, where they find out the GIW plagarized them), the fenton parents decided to create the 'ultimate ghost-ending weapon' and sell it to the agents.
They go absolutely overboard, describing to the agents in meticulous detail how it evaporates any ghost it hits near-instantly and describing it quite ruthlessly in the blueprints, and soon the GIW have raplaced all their main weapons with the new gun.
Except it doesn't actually kill ghosts. It's the Fenton Bazooka. You know, the one that creates a portable portal to suck the ghost back into the ghost zone? What they actually did was retool it slightly to make it look more grusome than it actually is. They even added a beacon in Phantom's Keep, which all Fenton Bazookas will target when they open a portal, so the ghosts are always delivered to the keep.
From there, Phantom stationed an emergency medical team at the keep to treat the many injured and ragged ghosts that the GIW 'destroyed,' and to explain what just happened.
What they didn't anticipate was that now that the GIW have a mass-produced weapon that they believed would effectively eradicate ghosts, they would go on the offensive. They have a number of cities they've been monitoring but didn't want to get involved in without better tools.
One of those cities is Gotham.
And the Bats are ectocontaminated enough to register as ghosts.
Batman witnessed several of his children get evaporated by green energy weapons within mere moments of each other. He's absolutely gutted. Devastated. They didn’t even stand a chance.
He'll get his revenge, and it's frighteningly easy to track the weapon to private subcontractors. The Doctors Fenton, in Illinois. Their research calls for the genocide of all ghost kind, and apparently, that war started by killing his own children.
His children will not die in vain.
He gets to Amity Park and finds the Engineer's Nightmare of a building that is Fentonworks, but that night, before he can hack through the security and break in, one of the windows opens.
It's one of his kids that he had watched evaporate before his very eyes. They give him a silent signal of one of their identifying security codes and gesture for him to come inside.
Is it a trap? A prank in poor taste? Utterly genuine?
He goes through the window.
All of his dead kids are there, wearing borrowed pajamas and only their dominoes to conceal their identities. Daniel Fenton (son of the Fentons, this is his bedroom, has voiced a few arguments against his parent's views, but still an unknown) is among the crowd of teens and young adults, twirling on an office chair and obnoxiously sipping a capri sun.
"First thing you need to know, Bats," Daniel says after finishing his drink, "is that my parents are absolutely NOT genocidal ectophobic scumbags, and that is the reason why your kids are still alive."
#the bats are not the first human liminals that the giw 'killed'#whenever humans land in the keep frostbite immediates calls phantom to take them back to earth#alternate scene at fentonworks:#bruce spies maddie on the phone and overhears her saying she'll 'inform batman when he arrives'#its frostbite/phantom on the phone telling her to keep an eye out for any bats because some of their team was 'killed'#and shortly after she spots batman spying on her and gestures for him to come in#and when theyre both in the lab the spectre speeder returns chock full of various bats and team phantom members#needless to say bruce is very relieved and incredibly confused#and his kids have a pretty wild story to tell#i deliberately left which kids vague#but i imagined jason and tim for sure and possibly two others#they hadnt left fentonworks yet as to not inform the giw that they survived and knowing that bruce would find them#it would also give away the fenton's trick and dont want to reveal that before the agency has been stopped#so they have to make a plan that doesnt reveal that theyre alive or expose the fentons deceit too quickly#the fentons may have to be temporarily arrested by the justice league while the investigation is ongoing#to hide the fact that they werent actually helping the giw#dpxdc#dp x dc

Prompt 338
So the GIW is the Ghost Investigation Ward and not the Ghost Extermination Ward, yes? Hear me out, hm?
See, it’s really hard to study ecto-entities when they’re going all over in and out of the world. Really hard! And of course they aren’t like, sentient, studies for years before the boom in this one town showed this! But, the overgrown not-birds (they’re still debating that) are really hard to watch doing their natural thing when they naturally mimic people around them!
So! They got this idea, right? Their operatives can capture some! They’ve even made enclosures based off of what they currently know! It’s like containing crows, down to the mimicry & puzzle solving just er, with opposable thumbs and intangibility.
And they don’t succeed first tries of course (Wow were said operatives frustrated and maybe cursing a bit that might be a bit violently) but then they get some assistance from the Fentons! Trying to hit an ecto-entities’ wings in a way to not permanently injure them is hard, but the new net canons that a ghost can’t pass through? Perfect!
They have so many specimens now! They even released a few that were very much uncontainable- they rely on technology a bit and that entity kept unlocking all the doors. So catch and release with that one it is!
They even managed to catch the white-haired ghost! In double! Which might not seem that important, but! As they realize during intake & initial examination (wow are they bitey) the two appear to be young! Something their ectobiologists only theorized about but oh are they excited! (Now if only the two would stop trying to escape their enclosure that’d be swell! Look, toys! Foo- oh dear God that baby ecto-entity is melting- Oh few, okay note taken to raise ambient ecto levels in that room dear god that was horrifying and stressful. … Maybe get some feelers out for feeding unstable energy entities…)
#my art#DCxDP#DPxDC#Prompts#Ghosts Have Wings#But I combined it with dragon ghosts sort of so more like Ghosts are humanoid Quetzals#Everyone thinks the GIW are trying to kill the ghosts but they’re trying to study them#Ghosts also speak Ghost Speak & humans can’t understand#Danny is panicking when Ellie starts to melt#He also is now terrified of leaving because the thing keeping her stable is the high ecto in the enclosure#The GIW scientists: It’s like having a heat lamp with chicks to keep their temperature from dropping but like ecto levels!#Technus poking at altered wildlife collar: What a strange snazzy necklace!#Danny: I wonder where Johnny & Kitty are- it’s been quiet from them for a bit…#Kitty & Johnny: Yo let us out let us out Let Us Out jesus fuckin christ they can’t hear us through this glass#Skulker brooding on the perch in the wall of his cell: I would shoot you if I had any weapons left- if you come in here I Will Gut You#GIW: Wow what a large variety of vocalizations! So much Science!#Fentons: Huh I wonder where Danny is- gotta finish this contract first though!#Jazz calling JL non emergency line because the police have already dismissed her: my brother is missing and idk what to do

i think the changes should also apply to him but like. in ways where he will not realise it. lqg throws a really heavy carcass or smth at him and everyone is all "a candle for the soon to be crushed peak lord" but sqh catches it just fine. >:( be careful shidi!! they're so confused. someone else tries to pick it up and- oh, jesus, fuck thats way too heavy. how is sqh handling it fine?? mobei finds out because theres a trap or array and sqh just scoops him before it activates. holding a whole ass demon man with one arm and his sword with the other. hes going to be boasting about it for WEEKS. his human is so much stronger than other humans AND some demons. your stupid princess shizun could NEVER
YES YES YES 100 PERCENT I can see everyone gaping at him like WHAT. WHEN? HOW? HUH?
I actually think Qinghua is pretty strong, especially being from An Ding with all the work he has to do, but with the whole god business, it's a whole other level he's rivaling DEMONS!
I'm actually obsessed with the idea that once Mobei Jun gets carried he immediately thinks about how much better his husband is compared to the emperor's consort the image of how smug he is thinking he got the better human is so funny to me
Rough sketch below of Qinghua carrying Mobei cause I think he deserves to get carried by his God
#svsss#shang qinghua#mobei jun#moshang#I love them so much#also im crying thinking about how NO ONE WAS GOING TO GO SAVE QINGHUA WHEN HE WAS TOSSED SOMETHING HEAVY ENOUGH TO KILL HIM#they just went f we'll miss you 🙏#no wonder he needs to upgrade his stats everyone is just watching his downfall#do you think with all of Mobei's boasting about his strong human Binghe would want to fight him and Qinghua is screaming because NOPE NOPE!#would Shen Qingqiu and Shang Qinghua have to have some type of play fight to see whose stronger because Binghe is sick of hearing about it#my art#nibbelraz#nib text#ask

PIDW time travel fic where after dying Shen Jiu wakes up in the past, after the ling xi caves and his subsequent qi deviation, with a chance to change his fate. Bingge also wakes up in his fourteen year old body, memories fully intact. Now, instead of actually changing their ways Bingjiu just try to kill each other in increasingly violent, hilarious ways
#Imagine them setting booby traps all along Qing Jing peak#Shen Jiu just keeps getting increasingly more mad that no matter what he does Luo Binghe just will not die!!#He shoots Luo Binghe point blank with an arrow at one point#somehow it miraculously misses any vital organs so Luo Binghe just walks it off#It becomes routine that once a day Shen Jiu stabs Luo Binghe#And Luo Binghe’s constantly trying to poison Shen Jiu’s food#only for Shen Jiu to throw it away#Luo Binghe’s finding all kinds of rare demonic plants to put in Shen Jiu’s garden#and rare#dangerous animals to launch into his living room.#Shen Jiu makes Ming Fan deal with them.#Ming Fan slowly decides he hates both his shidi and his shizun#It gets so obvious that all the Peak Lords are confused why Shen Jiu is not only so fixated on killing this random fourteen year old#but failing#On the flip side any time any sort of danger threatens either of them#if it isn’t dealt by their hand#they’ll fight tooth and nail to protect the other#Because at this point its like. I deserve to kill you. You can only die by my hand.#Somehow this carries on into their old age. bingjiu end up together because yk keep your enemies close#And just like that they’re married#Because all of the best marriages are based on murder. Obviously.#and they don’t even think of it as a marriage#hey interact with malicious intent and cohabitate together spitefully#(bc wherever lbh goes sj goes and wherever sj goes lbh follows…to keep an eye on him#obviously)#literally everyone in the world#human and demon alike are just like. but you are married. this is a marriage.#and bingjiu are like no!! while drinking their poisoned tea#demons in particular would be convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that they’re both madly in love with each other#for demons this is just a regular Tuesday. can you really say you love your partner if you haven’t tried to kill them at least five times?

☆ de fontaine

This wasn't fair. This wasn't fair. This wasn't fair!
She thought, for one moment, she could put the mask down and breathe – for one moment of daydreaming, she thought she could just be Furina. She thought she would finally get to live the live she should've had in the first place, the life she threw away to play God to an audience who saw her as nothing but a circus animal, dancing to their whims. Furina just wanted to be selfish for one brief and fleeting moment..and it was gone before she could even grasp it in her hand. A comet soaring past far out of her reach.
She can barely keep her hands from violently shaking as she looks down at them – broken and bloody and more a corpse then a person – and she feels so numb she can't even feel the rain pelting against her back. None of this is fair, she wants to scream, why is it always me? But her voice is silent beneath the torrent of rain. She wonders if the ocean would take her if she sank into it's depths – just for a moment, she wonders how it would feel to finally be able to sleep at ease.
Furina is tired.
But Furina is nothing if not useful, isn't she?
So she forces her feet to move, dragging against the stone beneath her heels, and drags their bloodied body into the nearest empty building, letting the rain do the work of washing away the smeared blood following her path. The smell makes her feel sick, the feeling of it sticking to her hands and gloves makes her lightheaded, but she persists. Because Furina is useful, because Furina won't let them die out in the rain, because Furina won't stand by and just let them rot on the streets like some..pest.
Furina wants to go home. She wants to sleep and she isn't she if she wants to wake up, this time. But she keeps going anyway.
Because it's all she's ever done, and the habit sticks.
An Archon she may not be, not anymore, but the expectations of five hundred years still linger like eyes on the inside of her skull. They watch her, pry and prod at her thoughts, mocking laughter and judging eyes following her as she forces herself to dance to the song they weave with glee. Furina never stepped off that stage – she's still there, she thinks, watching the crowd stare at her in disdain as the curtain call looms above her like a guillotine. She still hears Neuvillette deliver her damnation and salvation with a trembling voice, still feels her hair stand on end when electro crackled like the crack of the whip, Clorinde's blade aimed at her like a loaded gun.
She's trapped on that stage and she never left, not really.
She hates it. She thinks she hates them, but it's not their fault. They didn't ask for this, didn't ask for everyone to turn against them, didn't ask for her to save them. Neither did she..yet here they are, she thinks.
She tries to tell herself she's in control this time, though. She can stop performing her part in this horrible, bloody play any time she wants. It makes her feel better, just for a little while, if she convinces herself she's still Furina, painfully human.
And Furina has always been good at lying.
It's the believing that's the hard part.
There isn't time for her to wallow in her own self pity, though. They're still bleeding out onto the dusty, creaky floorboards of some random, broken down house and she's just standing there as the blood stains the wood. She can fix it – she's good at fixing things. She's done nothing but fix things – try to, anyway – for five hundred years. She can fix a little wound, how hard could it be? Her hands are clenched so tight they ache as she kneels down, wincing at the creak of the floorboards beneath her heels– she hesitates just long enough to wonder if she's making a mistake before she peels away just enough of the outer layer of their clothes to see the deep, bloody gash across their chest. She tries not to think about it – it's deep, too deep, and she feels dizzy just looking at it, but she's handled worse, right?
Furina can fix it. That's what she's good at.
She doesn't feel so confident when she tries to wrack her brain for..something. Five hundred years, and a little wound stumps her? No, she had to have learned something, right? She's decidedly not trying to buy time because she's panicking, parsing through hundreds of years of memories like flipping through a book. Furina isn't made for this, not really – she's running on nothing but adrenaline and she's really not sure what she's doing, but she's trying. And just like before, it won't be enough, will it?
She'll fall short again – she'll be too late to fix it before she's alone again.
Furina was an Archon..used to be. What use would she have for that sort of knowledge? Which makes her predicament all the more harrowing and bleak. What was she supposed to do?
Furina had heard it first hand, that vitriol in Neuvillette's voice. She isn't sure she's ever heard him that..angry before. She's not sure he would listen to her if she tried, either. And that scares her more then anything. All of Fontaine was up in arms about this..imposter, yet here she was, staring down at them bleeding out in front of her, and she was trying to save them.
Why? Why is she throwing away her only chance at normalcy for a fraud? Why didn't she just turn them in?
They were dying – that should've been a good thing, shouldn't it? So why didn't it feel like it?
"Why you?" Her voice breaks as she speaks in harsh tones, grabbing the front of their shirt in trembling, bloodied hands. "Why now?" She wants to scream, to demand answers they can't give, to claw back the reprieve she was promised after five hundred years of agony..and all she can do is sob into their chest, pleading for an answer that will not come. "Why me?"
Silence is their answer, and it hangs heavy on her trembling shoulders as she cries.
Of course they don't, she thinks bitterly, no one has ever answered her pleas spoken in hushed sobs. Not her other self and certainly not them.
Furina has always been alone. Furina will always be alone.
Because Furina never left that stage, never left that moment when she looked at herself in the mirror and took up a mantle too heavy for her to bear. She always finds her way back eventually. There's no one on the other side anymore – she stands alone on a stage, waiting for an inevitable end she isn't sure will come.
"Please," She pleads through tears and choked sobs, clinging to them like they are all that keeps her from sinking. "Please don't leave me, too." The words burn on her tongue – how pathetic is she that she craves companionship from the bloodied body of the imposter? Perhaps she's truly lost her mind after all these years..perhaps she's finally gone mad. She must have.
But their presence is like the first feeling of gentle warmth upon her skin as the sun crests the horizon, like the gentle lap of tides along her heels, the sway of branches and leaves as the wind blows through them like an instrument all it's own. They are the soothing sound of rain against the window as she watches the dreary skies in fond longing, the first bloom of spring as color blooms upon the landscape like paint had been spilled across the hills and valleys.
They are like the faint spark she carefully nurtures and stokes, so fragile even the smallest wind could blow it out like a candle. She cradles it within her palms, pleads with whoever will listen – prays that someone finally listens, because if not for her, then for them.
She's failed to protect too much already, let too many people with so much trust in her fall between the cracks of her fingers like grains of sand. She won't let them go – she can't.
If nothing else, if she couldn't be saved when she begged for salvation from that five hundred year long agony, even if she never got that chance..
Furina will make sure they do.

So, what happened to Yaz's stuff?
She was living on a campus where at least one person got eaten alive, her phone isn't being answered, she was last seen getting into a vehicle that's at the bottom of the lake, and no bodies were found.
Do they move her stuff out of the dorm?
Is it considered a crime scene because the DPW got exposed a few days later and the suspicious disappearance of the Nublar Five and the deaths around them mean she might have been the target of a hit, or an accomplice? Bowman was a former DPW worker, after all.
Is her laptop in a forensics lab? Are all her clothes vacced up in bags after being checked for dinosaur samples and hair? Are all her notebooks and sketches filed in cabinets after being combed for clues? Or did her roommate just throw them out?
#it would be so funny if the six of them just got locked up for ecoterrorism by the USA#best backup they have is barry#and the DPW lawyers are going to just stare at him and say#“So you don't think she just sold out her boss because she chickened out?”#Soyona's lawyers are going to be able to suggest that too#they're gonna be answering questions for weeks#Sammy's neighbor is dead#and the animals who killed him are dead or running around malta#and the human responsible is also dead#and bobby nublar has an actual vandalism case against sammy and ben#trespassing and assault are ACTUAL LEGAL CHARGES THAT SAMMY IS GUILTY OF#that woman is going to jail#or at least getting community service#maybe a judge will throw it out but SHE IS GONNA NEED BAIL REGARDLESS#what was i talking about#yasmina fadoula#chaos theory

Do we think odysseus started pranking Athena and her temples at some point? Because I do. He argued that it was good for sneaking and evading training. And you know what Athena couldn't argue that. Her chasing odysseus across the island was good training.
#Odysseus#Athena#Epic the musical#Yes this does go along with my other post about how Athena is with odysseus vs. Telemachus#After the fourth time Athena yanked odysseus from his bed at 3 am to drop him into the depths of shark infested ocean#Odysseus didn't even bother going home or drying off once he swam back to shore#He grabbed multiple buckets and filled them with seaweed and sand and crabs and dumped them in the closest temple#The priests are actively sobbing begging throwing up sacrificing because athenas going to kill them#The locals are preparing for dooms day they're going to be cursed so so badly and it's their kings fault#This just in local 15 year old king was seen dumping sea stuff all over athenas temples muttering see how she likes it#The first time Athena was too stunned to do anything she honestly didn't think anybody has had this much audacity before#To desecrated her temples in just a way how would dare who would even think to do that#Odysseus her chosen human apparently#It is admittedly a little funny how freaked out everybody was...not that she would EVER tell odysseus that#It is also coincidentally FOR NO RELATED REASON SHE SWEARS that she slammes odysseus into the palace wall at full strength for the first ti#After all odysseus it's just training what's there to complain about#I might actually have to write out athenas and odysseus's wacky “training” adventures#Odysseus being a rat bastard

Me: *talking to my sister and my mom about how i like to read about moments in history where people eat each other for survival*
My Mom: I would never eat a person. I would just starve to death
Me, defending cannibalism for some reason: You don’t know what you’d do when a situation is that dire. 
#what i actually think is interesting is what people do before resorting to cannibalism#like the Donner Party ate their shoes#how there’s evidence that the guys from the Franklin expedition tried removing the most human parts of their friends before eating them#and the crew of the Essex drew straws to see who they killed to eat#I just think that the most human you are is when you’re clinging on to it#on the flip side: I would actually die before resorting to cannibalism#because i have the mind set of a person conserving water in the desert for so long they die of dehydration#in my own house where i have food and water#you stick me out on a boat with rations and i will never eat again

PLEASE DO NOT TAG AS YOUR OWN OC OR PAIRING.
Nathan and Ruben share a bond more powerful than most; mutual understanding through past experiences no one should ever have to go through, and through past actions so horrible they cannot be spoken of. Their grief and the blood on their hands binds them to the STEM technology they created, which has alienated them from the rest of the world— but they give each other the comfort they have both longed for so desperately for years, and that is all they need. They are each other's counterpart; you cannot imagine one without the other, like two sides of the same coin. Through their pain, their grief, their desire, and their regret, they have become one.

What would happen if a chick had nothing to imprint on, not even hatchmates, or if it couldn't see anything? What would that chick act like?
I don't know, as that would be very cruel to do to a baby, so no one would or should do it.
#asks#anon asks#this is a great example of why fiction is allowed to be dark or horrible or cruel by the way#because humans are terribly curious creatures#we have questions like this to ask#and it's much safer to answer them in fiction than inflict it on anything in the real world#“hey what if this happened” “that would be real fucked up”#is the basis of so much fiction and media#blind chicks by the way imprint by sound and touch still#and locate food by the sound of others#so you'd be talking about total sensory deprivation#not just visual impairment#and total sensory deprivation would just kill them

i have so many tag games to do when i finally make my inquisitor and rook
#creating my da ocs at a snails pace#halfway through dragon age origins also had a glitch where i didn't have my dlc so i still have to do those#literally never finished dragon age 2 hashtag fenris was not a full rival and i don't want to kill him#scrapped both my inky and rook. love them but i really want to diversify more this time around.#so i'll probably have a qunari inquisitor and i have no idea about rook. have a good idea for a human mage de riva but also..#dwarven rook.... he is calling me.... i need dwarf rook.........#i actually do have a dwarven rook named gourdy but he's actually one of my book oc's fathers. and i don't want to canonize his vg stint LMA#also summer depression is beating my ass IT'S TOO HOT (65°F). i also cannot do my world building because i'm stumped right now on The Curse#like i know what the curse is i don't know how to word it to make sense.#also i went too hard on building the solar system for 1 (one) planet i started crying because i hate space LMAO. so yeah.#now its just similar to our solar system. except the world is a bit further from the sun (still in the goldilocks zone!)#but anyway this isn't really me complaining. i just like talking :3#AND thank you to my moots who have tagged me for tag games. i will do them. at some point. when i get my act together.#this is definitely not a call forsomeone to talkt o me i mean what. i would never ask someone to do that#also i'm babysitting my niece (dog) and i'm going insane. i have had a headache all day today.

Someone more talented than me should write a meta comparing Armand and In ho and the performances of their respective actors I'm so serious
#like how both went through so much horror that made them so desensitized dissociated and dehumanized to almost a point of not turning back#but how they still have that 0.01% in them of humanity left and whether if that's enough to change anything#with armand i do think it is and was possible and he got so much better specially after benji and sybelle#but also it's a totally different context because he's a vampire who is supposed to kill and lives forever#in ho's case is a lot more complicated in that sense because the consequences of his actions are so much worse imo#realistically speaking even if he paid for his crimes and felt all the remorse in the world and went back to his old self he can't fix shit#and he has to live in a human life in a normal word where people would probably never accept him after the things he's done#which is obviously 100% justified#but i just think he's such an interesting character#and the parallels with armand are making me insane#obviously they're very different but the few simiralities are driving me INSANE#also can we talk about how assad zaman and lee byung hun went to the same school of subtle acting and microexpressions!!!!#interview with the vampire#armand#hwang inho#hwang in ho#hwang in-ho#squid game#round 6#assad zaman#lee byung hun#the vampire chronicles

WIP Wednesday ✨
Thank you sm for tagging me! @flowersforthemachines
I’ve been working on writing siren au recently and have been enjoying writing Ivy’s POV for chapter 2 so far! Here’s a little snippet of them currently in the Dellamorte estate after breaking in to check on their now favorite human, Lucanis <3
Various books could be found stacked on the wooden table separating the fireplace and him, some with painted covers while others a wall of text. There was a bottle with some form of liquid inside it, a glass right by the floor nearly finished. It was tempting to give it a taste but that isn't what Ivy came here for. Who knew when the mortal would wake and spending time being distracted wasn't going to help. All they needed was a good look at his face and with how his head laid perfectly still against the pillow, they may have gotten exactly what they needed. Ivy's eyes studied his features just as they did on that stormy night by the shore. His hair was shorter then, the nest of hair on his face wasn't as apparent either. The bags under his eyes weren't so prominent and he didn't appear to be so… fragile before. In a state of rest that should be a comfort, the human looked exhausted and overall restless. Beneath the rough exterior however was still the human Ivy saved that night. It was their first hunt in months after their parents caught them last and they couldn't even enjoy the spoils because well, the spoils were already lost. Yet Ivy saved him anyway, using their strength to bring life back to him and making sure others of his kind came to his aid. They still didn't know why they were drawn to him. He was just another human, something Ivy still couldn't believe. What are you? their curious thoughts lingered on as they brought a hand closer to his face, barely touching the skin out of fear. A string of guilt slowly rose to the surface as they finally left his side, their eyes catching the patterned fabric just at the edge of the seat. How could they think of killing the one they saved so easily like this? They took the fabric into their hands with a form of caution, bringing it close to Lucanis' legs. Their brief distraction came at a cost though when an ill placed glass tipped over, clattering right against the tile floors. Ivy froze, their hands dropping the fabric back to it's original place and as expected, the humans sleep was disturbed. He woke with a freight, his body twisting in their direction and without any thought, Ivy sang a song of slumber out of panic. What normally would sound like claws scraping against wood became a sound they never knew they had, an enchanted melody that caused Lucanis to fall right back into sleep. Shit.
I never know who to tag for these things so if you see this i am tagging you 🫵🫵 I would love to see your works if you have any!!! 🫶
#.txt#writing tag#siren au#i love how before switching the pov lucanis was literally thinking about them … meanwhile they were outside trying to figure out how to#break into the estate AGAHSJSKDLDOA like they were so confused by his presence and being told to leave him alone did not help either#like there is absolutely no way this human is just some guy and he literally is just some guy (maybe. definitely)#i will say this may be the first night lucanis will sleep without waking up and feeling like dogshit though . unfortunate for him im sorry#one of my favorite things so far with writing this au is how ivy isnt your typical siren like . of course they are#but they were never able to Be one and hone their abilities proper because they were born into royalty and had to pretend for most of their#life that they werent a siren. like they know they can do these things they know they can lure people in with their songs but why would they#type of mindset . like ivy isnt the kind of siren to trick you they will literally just kill you AHSJDJAKAK. i love it so much#i want to ramble more but the tags already feel so long im sorry ahshdjsk i just love this au so much
