Hope Is A Fickle Thing

🎶 I've been keeping a seeeecreeeeet... 🎶

HELLO @yanny-77!! I have lied, schemed, and manipulated (with so much love) my way through the @acotargiftexchange to ensure I could deliver you the most perfectly curated fic possible. It was an absolute honor to be your Satan this gift exchange, and I hope you love this fic: an Empyrean angst inspired Azris calamity of errors featuring as much sword lore as I could wrap my head around. -Love, your Satan 😈🖤

Eris travels to the Night Court to surprise Azriel, hoping to sneak in a romantic rendezvous. Unfortunately, the night goes horribly awry. How many members of the Inner Circle will walk in on them? Guess we’ll find out.

***This fic takes place post HOFAS and includes spoilers for the Crescent City series.

***This fic contains direct quotes from Fourth Wing and Iron Flame woven in as parts of the plot. How many can you find?

Running a hand through his hair to wrestle the short strands back into place, Eris let out a determined sigh. His steps echoed through the wide, empty halls deep within the Forest House as he set out toward his room. The day had been long and advisors more tedious than ever; pushing back against Eris’ attempts to prepare Autumn for his eventual reign.  Beron still sat atop the throne, High Lord in title, though his power waned. Each day Eris felt a new trickle join his amassing magic and he knew it would not be long before he’d need to make his move. All but one of his younger brothers stared at him with hungry eyes, anxious to steal what was rightfully his.  Pushing open his door, Eris tried to act unsurprised by what he found. His youngest brother lounged before the fire, long legs draped over the chair’s arm. Eris groaned internally, struggling to keep his eyes from rolling. He’d been hoping to unwind by himself for a moment, but no matter; he could prepare for what came next with or without Lucien there.  “Who let you in?” Eris asked, voice monotone in an attempt to disguise his disgruntled state.  Lucien scoffed, righting himself in the chair. “Why, I let myself in. You did get father to lift my banishment after the war.”  “Stop making me regret that.”

hi phjgitng community

my personal silly little headcannon, tag it as you will in your reblogs, more ramblings below

this is obviously inspired by splatoon biology posts! made by dogtoling :3

more details about tinting, its silly sometimes because oftentimes, its mistaken for a deep bond even when its work mandated color shifting. every single inphernal has a different threshold and willingness to tint or match colors of course.

I can't stop thinking about how funny it is that Aang had all this secret lore on Zuko because of the Blue Spirit that he just, didn't share with the Gaang. That boy knew that Zuko was capable of fighting extremely well without bending, was excellent with swords and unnaturally good at infiltration and espionage. And then just never brought it up.

Katara's yelling at Zuko on how he thinks he'd be able to find and break into the Sun Warrior Temple while Aang is fidgeting in the background. Sokka starts giving Zuko a hard time about his swords, asking if a spoiled prince would know how to use them. Aang is vibrating unsure of how to explain that Sokka Might Die if he tried to swordfight Zuko unprepared but now its been too long and it'd be super awkward to bring up.

Enneke taking a rest in a battle axe after a fierce fighting.

So ended the fourth of the Dragon Wars, after many years of strife, and there was relief and hope for a time in the courts and hearts of Pokemon. And the hosts and knights of the fairy kindred marched under flowers and song to where they had departed so long ago. The Dragons and their heretical servants were scattered across the lands and their machines torn down, but their dark allies and Demons were not completely destroyed. Many of the Dragons repented and returned to the guidance of the gods and their servants, yet also still remembered their enemies in their hearts. The dark tunnels beneath the island of Skir were filled and the gates sealed, but deep under the earth the caverns still remain as a harbour of evil. Some remained to watch over the island, but none settled there for the dread of war clung to the soil, and because the burning mountain that stood high over the island and the former green meadows of the Emerald Hills were blackened with ash. Countless Pokemon of the Fairy kind and many other kin and Dragons who were their allies perished in the battles and the crossing of the sea. The high king of the Riverland was no more, and his realm would not find peace until long after. Those who had joined the host of the Fairies in search of glory and honour now departed in sorrow, and once more the kindred of Pokemon grew estranged.

Sword lore? Sword lore!

(lol I just realized this has nothing to do with the reincarnation au but I actually wrote the quote with the au in mind so I'm taking this as an excuse to share lore)

Wukong's sword, Daylight, was originally gifted to Jiutian Xuannu by the deity of the sun, as a gift for her defending one of his sacred temples from a demon attack.

Jiutian Xuannu then carried this sword with her in battle before gifting this sword to The Yellow Emperor to help him defend his kingdom and army against a great mist. The Yellow Emperor then had the sword until he gave it to one of his generals who lost it at sea. The sword then fell into possession of a water demon who traded it to a very stubborn fisherwoman to get her out of his river. The fisherwoman agreed and left but quickly uses the power of the sword to become a very feared pirate.

The fisherwoman was later betrayed by her first mate who killed her in her sleep and escaped with the sword. The first mate then came across a village that was being tormented by a Nightmare. The first mate then used the sword to defeat the Nightmare and he became the hero of the village. The first mate later got married and the sword was handed down to the first mate's son, and then his granddaughter, and then his great grandson.

The great grandson then went mad with the power of the sword and so the great grandson's brother killed him and took the sword, hiding it deep within the wilderness inside a booby-trapped temple.

A rock demon named Isamu was later led to the temple and the sword by a phoenix. Isamu then took the sword and used it to defend her home from human poachers. This led her to becoming the first Protector of Yigong city and the sword to become a symbol of power to the demons.

The sword then stayed in the demon world, being handed down to Isamu's son who hung on to it until he found a proper replacement as Protector. He lost the sword however in a fight against a sun demon who said the sword belonged to her and her people because they were both of the sun.

The sun demon then lost the sword in a bet against Sun Wukong who put it in his treasury where the sword would stay until the sword was eventually picked up by a certain reincarnated version of the Monkey King.

I had thoughts that little LeBlanche was found by an agency and they made him popular thanks to his sad past and his pretty face. I think his behavior is just a stage image. Although it could also be a defensive reaction, because if he didn’t have parents, then he matured early, trying to prevent himself and the gnomes from dying on the city streets.

“is g/t like a horny thing or a fluff thing for you?” buddy my latest OCs are a mage and the living battery for their power who are locked in an unending cycle of killing and resurrecting one another. it’s about the psychological weight of holding someone you utterly loathe in the palm of your hand while also devoting your entire existence to protecting them. “horny or fluff” buddy we are way past that. there is a third secret option and that is “psychologically fucking up my OCs via size dynamics” get on my LEVEL
