I’m in denial over Karlach’s ending no no she will get her happy ending she fixed her infernal engine they found an alternative and they found the cloak of Dragomir for Astarion so that after everything they’ve been through they’re finally able to travel the world together in peace thats the reality I choose to live in 🥹

I tried to look up references for the Cloak of Dragomir but there isn’t much so apologies if it isn’t accurate!! I tried many new things with this painting like painting backgrounds and new materials, it was really fun! Even if slightly stressful, but only slightly 👀🤭

"he looked like a boy"

[manynarrators]

Riddler: Riddle me this boy-

Riddler: Batman?

Batman!Dick: Yes?

Riddler: Who the fuck is this?

Batman!Dick: This is Robin.

Riddler: Obviously. But he’s different. He’s all scowly. Where’s the fun one, who likes my riddles?

Batman!Dick: He’s taking some PTO. Can we get on with this?

Riddler: No.

Batman!Dick: What? Why not!

Riddler: Well I would but it wouldn’t be very fair. See the riddles I had for tonight were kind of specific to a couple of past games me and the other one had done.

Batman!Dick: What you never did that for me when I was Robin-

Riddler: Yes well it just wasn’t as fun with you.

Batman!Dick: So what, are you going to just let the hostages go?

Riddler: Well I guess. I’ll have to come up with something different, we can reschedule.

Batman!Dick: So what, do we just take you back to Arkham or-

Riddler: *shrugs* That’s fine. I’ll just table this one for when he gets back.

If Fëanor were alive during the War of the Ring he would have considered the One Ring inferior craftsmanship and thus been too proud for the ring to sway. In this essay I will

S1 vs S3, maybe probably?..

Elves born in the Second and Third Ages are used to having the ruins of earlier eras scattered around the landscape being Aesthetic, and are disappointed that there aren’t any in Valinor.

So they deliberately build cities, attack them with siege weaponry, and abandon them. It only takes around two hundred years to get that Haunted Vibe!

Also explains why the Théâtre is still in the de Lioncourt name. It’s just been Armand de Lioncourt signing the papers rather than Lestat.

Christine (Lestat’s lawyer during his rockstar tenure) is almost certainly not paid enough to deal with any of this.

Fuck period-typical homophobia, I need a reveal that Lestat and Armand have been legally married since the théâtre days. For financial reasons, but the contract still stands in the world of vampire-friendly lawyers. The truth comes out at the Loustat wedding.

Modern vampire who has spent the last 70-ish years of their immortality primarily being slutty in nightclubs and non-lethal snacking on hookups shocked and uncomfortable that most vampires older than the lightbulb are really into torture and cruelty and eating babies alive. Super excited to finally meet his own kind and then oh no. oh fuck. time out wtf are they doing. this is profoundly unsexy they bit that guy’s arm off and are letting him crawl around screaming and crying. there’s not even any kissing or grinding or club music. is this normal?? i am Going to throw up i’ve gotta get these poor ppl out of here. askjeeves how to smuggle 30 naked prisoners (assorted genders) out of vampire mansion time sensitive.

khayman/armand/daniel is so silly bc it's just: hashtag me and the bad bitch i pulled by being old and autistic. and here's his fledgling daniel. whom he pulled by also being old and autistic. i think we should run away together.

Your TAGS!!! Yes, yes you’re right on every point.

They feel like they come from a shared, or at least similar, brand of vampiric/inhuman weirdness that the other characters don’t hit in the same way. Let Armand date Khayman! It’s what they deserve, and would be narratively delicious.

Personally I’m just going to hc that Armand is with Khayman during his off stage period between QotD and the next time we see him in Memnoch.

btw ive never really mentioned it here but one of my tvc book rarepairs is armand/khayman and i am HEARTBROKEN at the lack of content. the potential!!! hi?!!!

Do you think Icarus and the Minotaur would have fucked?

I’m going to say no. This is less “me and my awkward ex and/or person I slept with once” and slightly more “depressed teenagers who stole their parents alcohol and got drunk together.” Tears optional.

no one is ever talking about how icarus and the minotaur lived in the same house. you don't think icarus was so foolishly carefree once he touched the sky because he knew bondage? he knew that worse than bondage, there was a boy down there who have never once laid eyes on the sun? you don't think the minotaur's last moments were spent wondering if there was some land beyond the infinite dark-- for no one had bothered to tell him except the whimpering, dying children he consumed? did he wonder whether it would have a sun? something more beautiful, he figured, than anything? when icarus reached for the sun and felt his wings melting, he kept going because he knew that other little boy would never get to see it, and if only he could shake a bit of heavenly light loose... but it wasn't meant to be. they were both doomed from the start.

//I am thinking about my wtnv Repo idea. “Chase the Morning” (and the slightly extended after!) forms the basis for the idea of a scene where Kevin is Blind Mag, Janice is Shiloh, Cecil is Nathan, and Marley is Carlos with touches of everyone else! To absolutely no one’s shock, GeneCo is StrexCorp.

This is a darker AU for literally everyone involved!

If anyone else has thoughts I would love to hear them!!!
