#𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐂𝐑𝐒𝐏𝐀𝐑𝐊  —  a  headcanon-based  interpretation  of  teen  wolf's  𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐋𝐄𝐒  𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐊𝐈-𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐄.  independent,  private  &  selective,  low  activity  rp-blog  originally  crafted  for  fakevz  that  operates  in  english  only.  established  2014,  crossover-friendly  with  several  verses  available.  please  read  the  rules  before  interacting.  hexed  by  𝒍𝒆𝒙𝒊,  25+,  she/her. ©  open  for  plotting! 

after  leaving  the  horrors  of  beacon  hills  behind,  stiles  built  a  new  life  in  new  york—far  from  the  supernatural  world  that  once  haunted  him.  as  a  rising  fbi  agent,  he  finally  felt  safe.  but  the  past  had  a  way  of  creeping  in:  unprocessed  grief,  loss,  and  guilt  followed  him  like  ghosts,  and,  in  their  wake,  something  else  sparked:  a  strange  power,  flickering  to  life  in  moments  of  raw  emotion.  at  first,  he  dismissed  it  as  stress,  an  overworked  mind  playing  tricks  on  him.  but  as  the  unexplainable  piled  up,  denial  became  impossible.  determined  to  uncover  the  truth,  stiles  set  out  on  a  quest  for  answers—one  that  would  unearth  long-buried  family  secrets  and  awaken  forces  better  left  undisturbed.

𝐀  𝐒𝐓𝐔𝐃𝐘  𝐈𝐍:  questionable  morals,  loss  of  innocence,  rifted  reality,  the  aftermath  of  demonic  possession,  survivor's  guilt,  undying  loyalty,  unruly  magic  &  untamed  will

A built in desk is perfect for working from home, especially if you have limited space.

Just some points on my modern au:

Both Dorian and Manon are from old money families (it’s how they met it was during an exclusive event)

Dorian hates it lowkey he wants freedom and to do as he pleases so he skips as many of these events as he can. But he also knows that if he leaves and Hollin gets in charge… their family would be over because his brother will ruin everything. So he stays around for the sake of his family.

Manon is the opposite. She is always present and taking charge of things in hopes that it would appease her grandmother. But just like everything else she does, it’s never good enough.

She’s a perfectionist who always needs to be in control otherwise she starts falling apart.

She was raised on the notion that emotions are a weakness, and she wouldn’t dare bring shame on her grandmother by being emotional. So from a young age she learned to suppress her emotions and carry on.

She is what her teachers would call ‘academically gifted’ but the truth is, she spent many hours studying and skipping sleep in order to be the top student at her school. Even when she was burnt out (she usually spends summer break studying for the next school year before it starts) she keeps going. Result? Getting a final score of 99.7% caused her to have a breakdown because how was she so careless as to lose that .3%? Her grandmother wasn’t too happy with her score, and she made that very clear.

She’s just so emotionally repressed and very anxious but she’s so good at hiding it no one can tell anything is amiss. Because when Manon is having a breakdown, she does so privately behind closed doors.

She has attachment issues and she’s very emotionality dependent on her dog. Abraxos is her rock and she has no idea what she’d do without him.

Those attachment issues? (Thanks to grandmother’s emotional and mental abuse) Manon often ends up with awful/toxic men just because they’re giving her the right attention that makes her easily want to be with them thinking it is ‘right’ and honestly just doesn’t think much of it (Asterin notices tho and she and Sorrel are always ready to interfere).

She doesn’t have much faith in men anymore. One night stands are way better than a steady relationship and so she swore off dating. All she needs is Abraxos anyway.

my energy has been low lately so i've stuck to just liveblogging chapter releases, but i was thinking earlier about why lore olympus really nettles me and it's truly indicative of a wider issue.

it's disappointing that a major ancient religion that is still practiced by some people today has been reduced to a caricature of itself, and i say this knowing that there are thousands of reinterpretations of the greek myths, there will always be a new opinion or retelling of them. retelling the myth of hades and persephone isn't necessarily the issue, so much as the constant and dripping disdain to the cultural roots. we don't need to be greek to appreciate the story, but why remove everything greek from it? why westernize every aspect and remove ties to the cultural roots? why whitewash everything from a myth thousands of years old?

part of the reason these myths continue to resonate with us is because the themes are still relevant today. the loss of a child, the struggle against impossible forces, the (often patriarchal) powers against you, a mothers love. these stories hold power, they gave hope and inspiration, they created meaning and connection, and they were vital to the people who lived in that time, in that place. they will resonate with us for many years still, but stripping the roots and core of it out only makes it a hollow, shallow imitation. it's reality tv with neon colours, no love or heritage present; it's cold and shiny and plastic, and it insults what it claims to portray.

i'm plagued by like a terrible crystal clear idea for an AU that I'll never write and would need way more context to be Anything but is still evocative enough to make me go oughhhhh I Want it.
