Imma take you on that offer with the ROs family baby reaction -sarah

ROs families react to RO and MC's baby

The Emeraudes (Alceste's family) would be so happy to see Alceste and MC's baby! Claudia and Regina would be happy to give advice to MC and Alceste as Alceste's siblings entertain the baby. Eirene would be very stressed over the baby, freaking out when it sneezes or rolls over. Orin is going to manhandle the baby, causing Eirene to lose her shit. Lyssa's really the only one I would personally trust out of the Emeraudes with a baby (minus Claudia and Regina)

The Cornalines (Larisilla's family) would be happy, if not a little surprised, to see Larisilla and MC's baby. They really didn't expect Larisilla to become a parent at like... all and, honestly, they're not sure how long she'll last before she's had enough since she doesn't like kids. Deimus and Eunomia had really come to understand that they probably won't have grandchildren, so Larisilla's baby is pretty surprising. That said, Eunomia is the best with the baby, fawning over it and being a good grandmother. Deimus is an asshole and will use this to tell Larisilla she could've become the next Head of the Council if she just put her mind to it. Lachesis is pleased to see/meet her nibling. They won't see much of her and vice versa since she's in the temple but she finds the kid cute.

The Topazes (Dionys' family) would be thrilled to meet Dionys and MC's baby! I'm talking like a whole ass party, thrilled. Erato is excited to have a grand-nibling and spends the whole time weaving an intricate tapestry MC and Dionys can hang in the baby's nursery. Galatea is very interested in the baby. She and the baby would grow up to be relatively close friends since their age difference isn't too far apart (7-10 years, I'd guess). Atlas and Carya are shocked to hear Dionys had a child, although they do miss meeting the baby since they're off doing research. I'll be honest, Atlas and Carya won't be super present in the baby's life, similar to how they weren't a huge presence in Dionys and Galatea's life as they were growing up.

There's only one Disthene alive besides Somnia and that's her mother Ianassa. Ianassa is so happy to meet her grandchild. Part of her honestly didn't think she'd live long enough to see it because of her weak constitution and poor health. Ianassa is probably one of the best grandparents for MC's baby since child-rearing comes naturally to her. She does express regret that Somnia's father, Mache, isn't able to meet the baby, but she's happy enough to focus on the baby. She enjoys knitting and will knit the baby blankets, hats, little booties, etc.

... So I can't really tell you how Enyo's family would react since it's pretty spoilery and actually changes based on what the choices you make... But, I will say, that most of the time, they're either indifferent to the baby or don't care at all.

(may be updated as the story progresses)

Somnia's Mother

Name: Ianassa Disthene (née Pantelle) Gender: Female (she/her) Age: 50 Status: Alive Appearance: Pale skin with freckles, Long Curly Auburn Hair, Light Blue eyes Cursebearer Status: Unknown Bio: Ianassa is Somnia's mother. Like most in Somnia's village, she's nice, kind, and welcoming. She has a weak constitution and is often in the healers' house for one thing or another. She either doesn't know or refuses to speak on whether or not she has a Curse. Similarly, she was also against Somnia focusing on Blood Curses and potential temporary treatments. She did eventually come around to it as Somnia proved to have a natural affinity towards it.

Somnia's Father

Name: Mache Disthene Gender: Male (he/him) Age: 37 at the time of his death Status: Dead Appearance: Light Tanned skin, Medium-Length Loosely Curly Blonde hair, Green eyes Cursebearer Status: Yes Curse Name: ??? Curse Result: Cursebearer's lungs fill with water Bio: Mache is Somnia's father. He died from his Curse when she was 13 years old, which sparked her interest in Blood Curse medicine. He was described to be a kind and helpful person, often going into the wilds to hunt for meat when the village was running low on food and it was a bad growing season.

~

The Second Healer

Name: Ladon Jacin Gender: Male (he/him) Age: 26 Status: Alive Appearance: Tan skin, Medium-Length Wavy Light Brown hair, Pale Blue eyes Cursebearer Status: No Bio: Ladon is one of the other healers in Somnia's village. He's her childhood friend and they often work together. He's a polite and nice person and very dedicated to his work as a healer and his patients. He often takes care of Somnia's mother when she has to leave the village for jobs or gathering other herbs or ingredients or to study the affects of a Curse. He's a big supporter of her decision to focus on Blood Curses and her treatments and tries to help out when he can.

reminder that when achilles heard of patroclus’ death, he cried so loudly the gods at the bottom of the sea heard him :) 

While he pondered thus in mind and heart, there drew nigh unto him the son of lordly Nestor, shedding hot tears, and spake the grievous tidings: “Woe is me, thou son of wise-hearted Peleus, full grievous is the tidings thou must hear, such as I would had never been. [20] Low lies Patroclus, and around his corpse are they fighting—his naked corpse; but his armour is held by Hector of the flashing helm.” So spake he, and a black cloud of grief enwrapped Achilles, and with both his hands he took the dark dust [25] and strewed it over his head and defiled his fair face, and on his fragrant tunic the black ashes fell. And himself in the dust lay outstretched, mighty in his mightiness, and with his own hands he tore and marred his hair. And the handmaidens, that Achilles and Patroclus had got them as booty, shrieked aloud in anguish of heart, [30] and ran forth around wise-hearted Achilles, and all beat their breasts with their hands, and the knees of each one were loosed be-neath her. And over against them Antilochus wailed and shed tears, holding the hands of Achilles, that in his noble heart was moaning mightily; for he feared lest he should cut his throat asunder with the knife. [35] Then terribly did Achilles groan aloud, and his queenly mother heard him as she sat in the depths of the sea beside the old man her father. Thereat she uttered a shrill cry, and the goddesses thronged about her, even all the daughters of Nereus that were in the deep of the sea. There were Glauce and Thaleia and Cymodoce, [40] Nesaea and Speio and Thoë and ox-eyed Halië, and Cymothoë and Actaeä and Limnoreia, and Melite and Iaera and Amphithoe and Agave, Doto and Proto and Pherousa and Dynamene, and Dexamene and Amphinone and Callianeira, [45] Doris and Pynope and glorious Galatea, Nemertes and Apseudes and Callianassa, and there were Clymene and Ianeira and Ianassa, Maera and Orithyia and fair-tressed Amatheia, and other Nereids that were in the deep of the sea. [the Iliad, book 18]

Send 💋 if your muse wants a kiss from mine

Will blinked before smiling at the mermaid’s request, she wanted to be kissed by him huh? Well how could he possibly say no when she asked so cutely. Wrapping his arms around her waist, the tall metahuman pulled her into a warm embrace and leaned his head down until his lips were pressing against her soft ones in a warm, passionate kiss. Letting out a soft hum, he tried to keep it going as long as possible, greatly enjoying kissing the silver haired mermaid. “Mmmm~”

@alicerozen (Ianassa)

The Emerald Coast was sparking pretty big that day when Gabriel decided to go. His sister was in school, grouching and groaning at the fact that she stole a ring and had to be punished for it, but he had to let her do it. So he shifted into his dragon form, a rare White Dragon, and flew off towards the Emerald Coast. He landed near the water and curled his wings up to go to sleep, letting the water lull him to sleep. He couldn’t remember how long he slept, because he opened his eyes and looked into a pair of beautiful multicolored ones. “Hello?” he said slowly, blinking and raising his head.

🎥 Who is my muse’s celebrity crush? (for anyone)

OOf hmmm, I think. (All of the ladies like Henry Cavill though...uwu) Alice would like Chris Evans, Emme stone Sabella would like Ryan Reynolds, Anna Kendrick Ethine would like Jared Padalecki, Taylor swift Alexander would like Sophie turner and Emilia Clarke. Amarantha wouldn’t have one and Ianassa has no idea what a celebrity is XD
