[ 🎀 ] does your muse have any childhood friends or people that are important to them?

(Headcanon Memes - Accepting)

He certainly does.

Medivh grew up with Anduin Lothar, later known as the Lion of Azeroth, Commander of the Stormwind Armies and Brotherhood of the Horse, and also Llane Wrynn, later to become King of Stormwind.

They were the only two people he trusted with everything he was, when he was young - they knew what he was to become, despite the position itself being a well-kept secret. The trio supported each other in times of trouble and need.

When Medivh was overcome by the Power of Tirisfal in his teenage years, both Llane and Anduin were there for him, whenever they could get away from their own duties, talking to him, reminding him that they would be there when he awoke, and never gave up hope that he would awaken.

When Medivh awoke, the three quickly became the trio they had been, though Medivh had much to adjust to, falling into his coma a boy, and awakening a man - and having few people understand this fact. Without Anduin and Llane, it was likely that Medivh may have gone mad trying to adjust. With the aid of his friends, however, he managed to catch up on a decade in a shot amount of time.

As an adult, he took on Khadgar, a Kirin Tor mage-in-training as an apprentice, and in some ways, was able to explore his own teenage years through his own beloved student.

With the tragic deaths of Medivh and Llane in quick succession, Anduin Lothar was left to grieve - though found a friend in Medivh's apprentice, Khadgar, who loved his mentor, and so they grieved together.

If Medivh had not had Llane, who believed so deeply in him, or Anduin Lothar who knew him so well - or even Khadgar, who watched the horrifying downward spiral of his beloved teacher, it may have cost the world.

Instead, the incidents and the war that followed stole all three of the trio from the world - leaving Khadgar and others inspired by Anduin Lothar to carry the legacies of a loyal king, and a good man who had been robbed of his own autonomy before he was even born.

Young Trust, YOUR SON IS OUT OF CONTROL.

Hi everybody!

Welcome to the nook of all my creative endeavors and dreams.

Thought this might be a good time for showing some pics of the making of my largest wizards hat :)

[crankyoldraven]

my friend posted this on twitter & nobody has ever been more correct

[crankyoldraven]

Warcraft Movie Spell Sheet

Arcane barrage “rhui salher”

Teleport “Ach pareth'aras acha murabar”

Arcane blast “Shala'ros” (duh)

Medivh at Blackrock “saldrak unar galedor”

Fireball “Shata'lia”

Used against Garona “shir'kala khratar”

And the bubble shield (mana shield) “ullaman takan”

Portal “shalarom… ghiro'mas…. shalarom…. stormwind”

This is very approximative. Feel free to correct, this is the product of multiple people trying to listen to bad quality sound. We did our best. Free to use for all fanfics and fanmedia for the Warcraft Movie fandom.

If you're talking about the Iron Horde Incident that was just a fluke. And the Legion was just a setback - look, Young Trust, I promise this guy is totally safe. Travels in a perfectly controlled manner. He'll have you back here in time for a midnight snack, though you can take all the time you need to finish your work.

His laboratories far outstrip even mine in Karazhan and Dalaran could only wish they had anything like it - and the library, oh Khadgar, the library this man has makes Karazhan look like the little reading nook you set up when you were young.

*offers the key again* Trust me. Nothing can go wrong! I have traveled a few times with him now and he had me back in time for tea!

You know how you blow on the soup that’s in your spoon, when it’s just a bit too hot, cause you don’t wanna burn your mouth? 

 Yeah.

 I just did that with a spoonful of icecream. In case you’re wondering how tired I am.

*slips you an hourglass and a key* I usually would not advocate messing with time, but I know a guy...

((I have successfully made you laugh. And now you see the truth in Sargeras. We laugh ourselves to death at the range of disasters he has provided by taking over Medivh.))

( WHOMP WHOMP. In a cam boot + crutches for the next few weeks.  Partial Achilles tendon rupture and/or severe calf strain at or near the Achilles insertion site. I went from being physically ill and struggled to get out of bed to immediately this. Hi just call me Medivh.))

[crankyoldraven]

((Can totally understand. Either one kind of disaster or another. And besides...

Once this has been learned and understood... 

Feh. Nevermind. I turn my ankles walking normally and I’ve learned I have an extra vertibra so I dunno. But whatever it is - stop it. You’re supposed to be getting WELL, not ... whatever it is you’ve done! No more getting sick! No more falling up stairs (been there done that, know how you feel entirely!) and no more Achillesing!! XD I will go get my priest and throw all the healing!))

Broth. No, no, I don’t suggest it. Good for keeping one alive, but without something in it it jus doesn’t... *gets up and tries to walk on a clearly broken foot* No no, I’m fine. I’m sure we can ... wait. I was upstairs. Right. This way...

What have I said about doing things like this, Young Trust?

... and why would anyone call you Me?

That said I’m sure we can find you comfortable arrangements in the -

older man who you view both as a father figure and potential lover tenderly combing your hair to calm you down while you bleed to death in his arms asmr

[crankyoldraven]

Medivh, the much older version, furrowed his brows as he heard his name called - in a very, very familiar voice. As he turned, he shivered, and the library fell away from him, replaced by...

... a very enthusiastic younger him who was hugging him and...

...oh no.

He couldn’t help but return the kiss - he knew this moment. Remembered it far too well. Up until an hour from now, anyway.

The older Medivh kept his hand on the younger’s arm, giving him a once-over. Yeeesss... this was the night. That night. Titans... But rather than seeing it as a vision, it was as though he had... well. He had two options: let it play out, or warn himself. Did he even have those options? Could he warn himself without...

Almost unwilling, he heard the question. And he had to answer.

Medivh stared at his younger self for a long moment, then nodded, slowly. “It will be a night to die for,” he said carefully. “I am not sure I would call it a ‘smash’, however. It was... memorable. Explosive, some may say.” He tried to smile, but his face would not obey him. He wanted to, more than anything, break what was happening - he knew what would occur, and he didn’t want ... but it was in the past. He knew he would still suffer this night. He would have nightmares for decades to come, even after... After.

“I would forego the dust tonight, if I were you. You’ll want to keep a clear head, if you want to keep it on your shoulders.” He summoned a smile and a wink that was passable for his younger days. “Or in your pants, one or the other. You’ll put Moroes in a right state if you aren’t careful.”

He reached up and brushed his fingertips along the younger Medivh’s face, his own deadly serious once more. “It is a night to die for - but whether it is worth dying for...” he trailed off, unsure how to get his message across without simply telling the younger mage. It was possible this was just one of Karazhan’s visions - and no matter what he said it would make no difference.

But what if it wasn’t?

17: Goofy Kiss (Brave enough to snog yourself? hmmmmm?)

17. Goofy Kiss

“Medivh!” the young guardian cheered with wide arms at the older Magus before him. The visions of Karazhan always seemed to respond to him, making him sometimes wonder if he is actually in the event rather than an unseen observer. So this apparition was just as real as everybody else around him.

The music of a wild party could be heard beating through the stone walls of the tower. People were around; laughing and conversing, dancing and drinking and overall enjoying themselves at yet another of Stormwind’s infamous magus’ parties.

A murloc ran by gurgling in its incomprehensible language and sounding distressed, a balloon tied to its foot so that the party favor followed it around and frightening it. A quick glance told him that some of the younger guests were responsible. He’d deal with them and the murloc later.

First he had himself to play host to.

Before the Magus could do anything, Medivh wrapped his arms around the older sorcerer in a tight embrace and kissed him quickly, which then seemed to become more of a snog to any one else who might be looking in their way. Medivh released the Magus a moment later, grinning almost madly with euphoria and perhaps way too much wine.

“Tell me, old man, is this party a smash?” he wanted to know. “A night worth dying for?” Those words would be familiar to the Magus.

I blame @time-lost-exiles​ for this.

What happens when Medivh orders Shadowmage Khadgar to kneel while he has broken legs?

This.

OOC: I have returned!

Yes, I have been active on some of my other blogs - but now this blog will be as active as the walking disaster as far as rp goes.

I still do not have my credentials for Briyanna’s account, however, so until I remember her stuff, that blog will remain dormant for now.

But, the fact is, the Cranky Raven is back!
