jason todd x f!vigilante

MDNI dub-con, praise, relationship status up to interpretation

✿ ivy pollen — jason helps you out as you get exposed by ivy’s pollen. (not proof read)

“They want us to clean up this?” you gawk as you look at the greenhouse in front of you. Large plants and flowers were scattered everywhere, you could visibly see the moving stem circling around the greenhouse like some sort of python and some flowers that open and close every second

Jason merely shrugs, as if cleaning up a plant infested greenhouse would be a piece of cake “Be lucky its just this.”

You and Jason had been assigned to clean up the mess Ivy did in a recent mission Cass, Damian and Bruce had done. Since uh, GCPD can’t obviously do this, Bruce had chosen the two of you to be in charge of the job.

The two of you entered the greenhouse, Ivy isn’t here at the moment, so the plants were a little bit tamer without its master. At least no one was ordering around to kill you.

The task was to destroy as much hostile plants as possible, if they were to difficult to destroy, then place them to the pots or incubators by the truck the GCPD parked by.

Jason was already getting frustrated, most of the plants he was picking up were already starting to try to wrap around his arms. He could feel the plants trying to dig their vines and leaves into his skin as he grabs and pulls the roots away, this was not a pleasant feeling.

He tried to focus on removing the most toxic plants away first, but there were a lot of the damn things. He was hoping you had a good grasp on the little plants, otherwise this would be a long day

“These plants are a nuisance, why can't Ivy just mind her own business?”

“You said you wanted the harder ones.” you reminded him, “Do you want any help?”

“I can handle it, just focus on the smaller ones.” Jason said with a grunt as he felt a large vine wrap around his entire upper arm and start to squeeze. The plant in his other hand was starting to poke tiny thorns into his palm, “This is gonna be a long night.” he deadpanned.

You ignored his complains and approached a medium sized plant. Its petals were pink and it seemed like it was breathing. The plant looks up at you as it petals opens, it seems to recognize your presence as it purrs.

You smiled and placed your hand under the plant's chin, it almost resembled some kind of pet.

You turned your gaze to Jason, “Hey, look. Not all of them want to kill us.”

Jason looked over at the plant you were petting, his eyes widen for a moment as he takes in that you're actually petting the dang thing. He stares blankly for a moment before raising a single eyebrow

“Are we just gonna ignore the fact that you're petting a plant?” Jason asked flatly. “I mean…it’s kinda cute.” you say with a shrug as you continued to pet the plant. It seemed to really like it, it almost looked like it was nuzzling into your hand “Cute?” he repeated dryly, “You know it could possibly be poisonous, right?”

You didn’t listen as he huffs, “Don’t touch it.” he sharply says, “It’s fine. It’s harmless.” you reassure him.

"Yeah and how do you know that?" Jason asked, he seemed more annoyed by you not listening to him than anything.

"I swear sometimes you can be so-"

He was cut off with the plant shooting pink dust in your face, you immediately started coughing uncontrollably as you let go of the plant. Jason immediately pulls you out and places his hands on your shoulders.

“Hnn..” you groaned weakly as he examined your face, “God I feel weird.” you mumbled. He gently turns your head from side to side, studying your face. He doesn't see any serious harm, but you seemed off somehow.

"Do you feel dizzy?" he asked. He was starting to get a bad feeling, he was on edge about what the plants effect actually was. You nod your head in response, your eyes starting to look a bit fuzzy. Jason glances down and notices a small pink tinge to your cheeks.

"Let’s go to the safehouse.”

He quickly guides you out of the greenhouse, “Oracle, we’re going to the safe house. A planted sprayed some kind of toxin on her, i’ll try to use the antidotes there in case she infects anyone.”

It didn't take long until you made it to the safehouse and Jason was already setting you down on the small couch in the living room. You felt hot, and you felt like as if there was an itch in your body.

You especially feel the heat down at your core and it felt so uncomfortable. You closed your legs and crunched down to try and ease the pain.

Jason noticed your movement out of the corner of his eye. He had been watching you closely, making sure you were alright. He raised a eyebrow as he saw you curling up, you looked visibly uncomfortable.

"Are you in pain?"

As you look up at him, you can’t help but flush as you felt the heat between your legs burn more “Yeah, uh. Pretty much.” you winced. In your head, some unholy images popped up in your head, images of things your body desperately needed. You then slightly shake your head and close your eyes as you suppress your thoughts.

You were struggling against these strange feelings. You never felt this much heat or desperation before. you wanted.. needed, something but you weren't sure of what.

Jason had a pretty good idea of what was going on, the plant must’ve sprayed an aphrodisiac on you. He looked down at you, watching as you tried to curl up to ease the heat. It was starting to get to him too, seeing you like this “Alright, I think I know how to help."

"You do?" you mumble weakly. Your thighs were rubbing together, hoping to find some kind of relief. He could feel his own body start to heat up in response to your increasing desperation.

It was obvious you were starting to lose yourself to the aphrodises, the plant’s effects taking over your logic and reasoning. He gently placed a hand on your knee, trying to get your attention. You jumped at the contact, it felt like a fire through your trousers.

“Look, I’m going to help you, alright? You’re going to have to trust me though.” Jason said quietly.

You nod your head slowly, not trusting your voice to speak. You didn’t care what he was going to do at this point as long as it could relieve the needy heat in your body. He took that as a yes, then slid his hand slowly up your thigh, noticing your body tense in response.

“Just relax, I’ll make it feel good.” Jason’s voice was a deep whisper, trying to reassure you that he could soothe the ache you wanted gone so badly. “Jay- don’t be all talk please.” your voice let out a whine you didn’t mean.

His smirk grew larger at your whine, he’d be lying if he said he didn’t enjoy it. The fact that you were starting to give in to him was doing something to him that he couldn’t explain.

“Don’t be so impatient, I’ll take good care of you.” he said as he placed his hand in between your thighs.

You let out a whimper in response, your hips grinding pathetically into his hand. The feeling of his strong, rough hand in your sensitive clit was sending tingles through your entire body.

Jason continued to gently rub his hand slowly, wanting to build the anticipation for you. He wanted to hear more of your desperate whines, it was like music to him. He could feel himself starting to get hard from your reactions and it was all he could do not to give in too quickly himself.

His fingers moved in slow circles, applying pressure to your aching clit. You whimper and try to rock your hips against his hand, wanting more of that sweet friction.

”Look at you, you’re so wet. You want it badly don’t you? All you have to do is ask for me, and I’ll give it to you.”

“Please-” you pleaded softly, your voice cracking from both need and embarrassment. This was nothing like you at all, but right now you didn’t care. You were overwhelmed with desire and you needed him to make it better.

“Come here,” he said as he pulled on your waist, you let out a small noise of confusion before realizing what he meant.

He guided you onto his lap, your legs straddling him. You could feel the bulge in his pants, it was hard and large. His hands were on your hips, holding you in place as he leaned in close to you.

You could feel his breath on your neck and it sent shivers down your spine. He placed hot kisses on your neck, moving slowly and leaving a trail up to your ear. His lips were hot and rough, it made your head spin.

You lift your hips up slightly so that he can pull the spandex slowly down your thighs, the cool air on your skin sending goosebumps across your legs. You feel a sharp shiver go down your spine when he places his big, rough hands on your bare hips.

You leaned in to give him a desperate and clumsy kiss as your hips grind on him for friction. He let out a soft groan into the kiss. His grip on your hips tightened slightly as you grind against him, his growing bulge pressing against you.

“Damn, how strong is this ivy poison?” he huffed as he pulls away.

He placed another kiss on your neck, this one much harder than the previous one. His hands move down to your thighs, gently squeezing as he held you in place.

"Just be patient. You'll feel good soon enough."

“Jay.. Jay please..” you softly whisper in his ear, “I need you.. help.”

He had to bite back a groan when you spoke in his ear, your sweet voice begging for him was something he didn’t know he needed this badly. He nipped your neck before responding, "I’m going to take care of you. Just trust me."

He lifts your hips up to tug away his boxers and your panties and you practically drool at his size. He placed another kiss on your neck before moving his hands back to your hips. "Now, you just relax, alright?"

He rubbed his thumbs in circles on your inner thighs, trying to soothe you. The heat and desperation was clearly taking its toll on you, and he didn’t want you to feel any more uncomfortable.

Jason lifted you higher, moving one of his legs to prop your hips up a little. He positioned himself right below your dripping cunt, then placed one of his hands on your waist.

When you push down on his thick cock you cant help but moan in relief. He grunted as you sunk down onto him, his grip on your waist getting even more firm. You were soaking wet and hot and his cock felt amazing.

You started to move up and down. There was no rhythm and you were moving like an animal in heat as you had no control.

“Easy there,” Jason said, his voice slightly strained as you moved. He could tell that you were starting to lose yourself, the plant poison was starting to take completely over your body.

His hands were still on your waist, gently guiding you as you rode him.

“But I need.. I need..” you pant.

“I know what you need, but you need to calm down a little bit." he murmured, looking up at your flushed face. "Just let me take care of you."

He took your waist and started moving you up and down in a rhythm. He held onto you tightly as he started to move you, setting a slow pace at first. He could see how much you were struggling, how you were practically begging for relief from this overwhelming heat.

"Good girl," he whispered, his voice low and rough "just let go, I’ve got you."

He continued to move in a steady rhythm, listening to your soft moans and whimpers and wanting to make you feel even better. But after a few moments, he could tell you were starting to get more and more restless and needy again, like the heat was building up once more.

"Look at you, you're such a mess." he said in a low voice, his fingers digging into your flesh as he continued to move you "But I like it, it just means I get to take care of you more, isn't that right?"

You nodded in response.

"That's right. You're going to let me help you and take care of you, right?" he lifted you up just a bit, then slammed you back down against him, making you gasp in response.

"You're too good for me, so I'm going to make sure you feel good," he said, his voice getting a little strained. It was getting more difficult for him to keep himself under control, but he wanted to wait until you were fully satisfied before he let himself go.

He moved your hips a little harder, wanting to build the pressure for you. You were making cute little needy whimpers in his ear, and each one of them was making him go insane.

You felt a knot in your stomach as you did a broken moan, “I’m close..” you whispered in his ear.

He loved hearing you being so needy and telling him what you needed, it gave him a sense of control that he didn't know he needed so badly.

"Are you?" he whispered back, his voice strained. "Then we should probably do something about that, shouldn't we?"

With that, he lifted you up a little bit and then slammed you down even harder. The change of angle hit you in the right spot and he could tell from your face that it felt good.

He kept moving you in that same spot, wanting to hear more of your needy whines and whimpers. He was starting to get close himself, the control was slipping out of his grasp.

"Come here," he said, pulling you down into a rough kiss.

He could taste the desperation in your lips, your body was so hot against his skin. He held you close as he kissed you, hoping the feel of his tongue against yours would drive you over the edge.

Jason drank in your moan as you came, he could feel your body shake against his as you reached your climax. It was a beautiful sight to him.

"That's it, good girl." he said in a low voice, still holding you close. He could tell you had come down from your high, but it was clear that you weren't satisfied just yet, you needed even

You panted as you looked at him hazy. He looked back at you, his gaze intense. He could feel how much you wanted this, wanted him, and it was driving him fucking crazy.

The heat and pain honestly felt worse after the first round.

"Do you want more?" he asked.

“Please.”

He lifted you up off of him, making you whine in protest before he flipped you around so that you were lying on your back on the couch. He moved over you, leaning over to cover you with his body. He leaned in and kissed you deeply, his tongue exploring yours as he started to position himself between your thighs.

Jason pushes his cock in,, not waiting for you to adjust at his size considering you were already so prepared.

He moved in and out of you, picking up a slow, steady rhythm. He could feel the heat already starting to build again, every inch of you felt so good to him.

He felt like the poison from the plant had done a number on him as well, he kept his face close to yours, so he could hear every gasp and whimper that came out of your mouth.

He grunted as you dug your nails into his back and held onto him for dear life. It felt like you were the only thing tying him to reality, and honestly, he didn't mind.

He continued to thrust in your pussy, doing circles around your puffy clit. It felt so good that you couldn't think straight, the only thing you could focus on was the feeling of you around him. He started to move even faster, his cock slamming into your pussy with each thrust.

You let out a broken moan as he hits the spot that makes your legs close. He leaned in to capture your lips in a rough kiss.

His hands gripped your thighs tightly as he continued to move. You tasted so sweet, it was like his own kind of poison, and he couldn't get enough of it.

He pulled back from the kiss to catch his breath, his chest rising and falling heavily with each ragged breath. He looked at you, his eyes dark with need, and he knew he wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.

You felt your orgasm building up again as you whined, “I-im gonna..”

He grunted in response, his hands holding onto your thighs a little tighter. "Go ahead, come for me." He practically growled the words, his voice rough and deep, his own climax starting to build in the pit of his stomach,

You cried out his name as you came all over his cock. He let out a low groan as he felt you tighten around him, it was the final straw before all of the control he had slipped out of his grasp.

He came hard inside of you, his body shaking and his fingers digging into your thighs. It felt like every nerve in his body was set on fire at once. He collapsed above you, panting hard as he tried to regain his breath.

He could feel how hot and sweaty his skin was as he lays on top of you. He lifted his head to look at you, noticing that your face wasn't nearly as flushed and your eyes didn't look quite as hazy anymore. The ivy's poison must've finally started to wear off.

"Are you okay?" he asked, his voice still hoarse and rough as he brushed some stray hairs off your sweaty forehead.

“Y-yeah. Um, I am.” you said, looking away feeling flushed on what just happened.

"Embarrassed?" he asked quietly, still trying to catch his breath. "That was pretty fun."

“I didn’t know I wasn’t able to control myself like that.” you said. After years of training, you couldn’t believe you lost your control even though you were trained to maintain it hundreds of times.

He smiled a little bit as he heard you try to defend yourself. "Yeah well, even the best lose control sometimes,"

Oracle tuned in on his comms, which thankfully he didn’t leave hanging while fucking you. “Red Hood, have you given her the antidote?” she asks.

Technically.. the antidote was pretty useless now. Jason rolls his eyes a bit at Oracle's question.

"Yeah Oracle, I've given her the antidote. She's fine now."

“Great, Red Robin and Spoiler will take over the greenhouse instead. Both of you rest.” Oracle said before tuning out. Jason can't help but shake his head at her response, he knew she wasn't buying that he gave you the antidote, but it seemed like she didn't want to say anything.

“I'm tired.. and sore.” you mumbled as you leaned ln his chest. "Yeah, I figured you would be. Come on, I’m pretty sure this safe house has a bed that fits the both of us.”

🌷 did u like this? i didn’t, i dont know how to write smut.. i might delete this but um yes

This post inspired me to think about secret identity logistics and I think Cass being so cavalier with her secret identity would actually help. Like, it makes the rest of the family's secret identities better because Cassandra Cain is obviously Blackbat/Batgirl. By contrast they would look even more civilian and if someone is not going to realize their kid is a vigilante is Brucie Wayne.

"But wouldn't they connect the dots to the rest of the family?" Listen, If those were bats they'd simply get out of the kidnappings and hostage situations they get themselves into like Cassandra. The fact that they always need to be saved proves they're, indeed, civilians.

Also, I doubt the math would math unless you knew very specific internal things to connect each vigilante to their civilian identity. Brucie is, for starters, as civilian as can get and thanks to the Mandela effect everyone is convinced that he was caught on camera making out with Batman anyways. So that's a non-starter.

Dick Grayson is trying to be a regular person, so the public would know he exists and comes back to important things but he's mostly out of the public eye. Plus, he's a police officer, why would anyone assume he's in kahoots with his little sister that was adopted after he'd already left Gotham?? And when he came back to Gotham for a while to take care of things for his father, is not like there was a new vigilante. It was still batman and Robin (the Robin was new, but Dick Grayson is an adult so, not likely).

Then we get to the big one: Jason is legally dead. You can't assign him any vigilante because he's mmm super dead. I'm sure there's a true crime podcaster trying to argue that he was the second robin and died doing robin shit, that's why Batman and Bruce broke up. But even if it's compelling, it's also considered in really bad taste. Also, can't be tied to Cassandra because she arrived after his death.

Tim gets a similar reaction to Brucie in the sense that there's no way he is a vigilante. He's the immunocompromised Twink from Forbes "30 under 30". He's literally physically incapable of being a super hero due to both a lack of Muscles and a lack of time. That boy has to run an entire massive money making machine and, for all gothamites know, he may very well be asthmatic as well. Plus, he gets kidnapped like crazy. If he was a hero he would at least now how to avoid being put in those situations. They suspect he's covering for Cass though, since he's smart enough to realize his sister is freaking Batgirl.

This means that even if Cass is Batgirl they can't really trace Batman, Nightwing, Red Robin or Red hood back to the family (not to speak of Batwoman, Catwoman, Huntress, Batgirl a 1 and 2, Oracle or spoiler). So at this point why would you even try to connect the others? Clearly Cass is the exception, not the rule.

Like, sure, Duke did survive the Riddler ruling Gotham and if you put some effort, it wouldn't be impossible to tie him to the We Are Robin movement. But also ...is it because he's black? Is it because he's the only black person from Gotham you know of?? His sister is a vigilante, and he is black, so he must be the black vigilante of course (He would be the one making this comments in social media through his sock puppet accounts and the True Crime/conspiracy communities would be too scared to touch that one with a ten foot pole)

Damian is another one where I think Bruce would do what he can to protect him from the press (partially for his own good and partially because he's the opposite of media trained). Most of the info the tabloids would get is from people tangentially related to him. Like, sure, he does look a bit like the new robin, and his sister is Batgirl. But, unless you're one of the people claiming he's the lovechild of Bruce Wayne and Batman (test tube baby??? Batman trans???) it wouldn't make a lot of sense now, would it?

Like Cass is so fucking weird compared to the rest of her family's civilian identities it makes them look rock solid by comparison.

Info-dump on starting angel work Because it's been a while since I've posted about angel work!

I love angels!

People particularly work with Archangels because they are the leaders of their domains. There are theoretically infinite angels and you could really pray to any in any domain but we'll get back to that.

There are many different groups of Archangels, rather than one agreed upon "pantheon"

I work with the Ars Paulina system, which includes but isn't limited to (because there are many): Archangel Samael = Angel of Execution Archangel Haniel = Angel of Grace Archangel Raphael = Angel of Healing Archangel Gabriel = Messenger Angel Archangel Michael = Angel of Protection Archangel Zadkiel = Angel of Mercy Archangel Cassiel = Angel of Temperance Archangel Azrael = Angel of Death Archangel Uriel = Angel of Wisdom

Lists in this post courtesy of my friend @angelmilkdreams <- amazing blog for angel work btw

Ars Paulina is the angel version of Ars Goetia and is part of the Lesser Key of Solomon

You can also look into your birth angels or sun & moon angels through this system! They're your teaching angels, so they can sort of tell you what you may do in this life or something about your energy. The angels are assigned by zodiac:

Traditional: Aries & Scorpio = Samael Taurus & Libra = Haniel Gemini & Virgo = Raphael Cancer = Gabriel Leo = Michael Sagittarius & Pisces = Zadkiel Capricorn & Aquarius = Cassiel

Modern: Scorpio = Azrael Aquarius = Uriel Pisces = Asariel

For more about your birth angels, I suggest checking out Ariel Gatoga. I still recommend him after all this time.

If you ever get into angel work, you might want to explore different sets of angels to see who resonates with you. You also don't have to work with every angel in a pantheon. The main ones I call upon are Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel and Haniel. I bring in other angels for prayers to others, though

Practitioners have different opinions about this, but I think angels are one of the easiest spirits to work with!

Because they love unconditionally. They love to help us and their purpose is assisting creation! They do still exist beyond this material world though - so it's not like strict servitude to humans

Another great reason: they don't require ceremony to be summoned. You may come across things like ceremonial magic for angels, or enochian magic etc. Ars Paulina also has rituals for summoning but I found you don't need them (maybe if you're asking for huge stuff).

That's cool if people want to do that though you simply need to use your words. Just invite them into your life, or your space, or something (like job, if relevant). There's no structure to prayers but you can be inspired by helpol prayer format if you so choose.

"Archangel Haniel, Archangel of Grace and Harmony, I invite you and your blessings into my life."

This is a good enough prayer to say to start a devotional connection with Archangel Haniel.

Angels don't need offerings but they're still nice to give. We usually say you venerate angels or work with angels rather than worship. But it's up to you as well - this way is just more common.

Some offerings can include angelic imagery or icons, flowers, things that remind you of angels, items that are specific to certain archangels (oils, sachets of herbs, amulets and talismans), incense!

Where do they come from? Who knows? /hj Depends on your belief system.

I believe angels come from a variety of sources. I believe angels came from the universal source, I believe they probably came from God too. I believe pagan gods have angels. I believe Hermes, Iris, Eros and Thanatos are angels who have their own angels. It doesn't really matter to me where they came from - I just know they exist in different forms across religions

Fun fact: Did you know the most common hierarchy of angels was written by a guy named Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite? His book was called On the Celestial Hierarchy

Extra fun fact: His inspiration is said to be the Chaldean Oracles and Hekate's triad of angels. The iynges (don't know too much about these ones), the synochesis (intercessors and guides) and teletarchai (something to do with initiation, probably with mysteries).

Extra extra fun fact: Zeus was said to have an angel (angelos) in inscriptions at Stratonikeia, Hekate's most significant town as a civic/patron goddess. Some scholars theorise the unnamed angel in Stratonikeian inscriptions could be Hekate herself

Anyway, angels like devotional acts too! Prayers are a good way to communicate with them. It is possible to sense the energy of angels! I noticed a difference in my room when I started working with angels - I could tell they were around, and they made things a little brighter

Can you use prayers from Christianity and Catholicism for the angels if they resonate? Yeah sure

You can also get into astrology with angels. It's a pretty big part of Ars Paulina (the planetary aspect). If you want to work with Haniel at a peak time, do it on a Friday when the planetary hour is aligned with Venus. If you want to do the same for Gabriel, Monday on Moon hours. For Raphael, Wednesday on Mercury hours.

Angels have sigils and symbols. You can use the planetary symbols as sigils for them too. I've attached a couple sigils for Raphael here

This website has information from Ars Paulina - another I still recommend after all these years: https://www.archangels-and-angels.com/

Ariel Gatoga's youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/arielgatoga

Let me know if you'd like to know anything else about angel work! Practitioners can have varying opinions about all this, so be sure to research and consider what works for you. It can also change over time.

What are they trying to manifest and how do you align with it ?

The purpose of this reading was to understand what the person on your mind looks for in life and more specifically what they wish for romantically, what aspects of you may match with their desired reality. Now, because we potentially match with someone doesn't mean being together is a given. People always have a choice and sometimes, though we know something seems to fit us, we may decide to pick something else, right? So let's just keep that in mind and calmly get a grasp of what is going on.

For each group, their will be two sections to cover the two main themes of the reading. I will use both tarot and oracle cards. If I pick up on any particular song or message, I may create a separate section to write them down. Disclaimer : parts of this reading may be triggering.

Group 1

Channeled song(s) and other miscellanous info : ONE OK ROCK - The Beginning, Scorpio, Taurus, colors green and blue, sea shells, crown chakra activation, Gemini, Kundalini rising, communication blockages

What are they trying to manifest? -> White Numen, Queen of pentacles, Knight of cups, 2 of cups -> The Sovereign, Surrender rx, Destruction rx, Speak Truth -> Quartz - Enhance your vision, Obsidian - Protect your soul, Serpentine - Awaken your reptilian nature

This energy feels very feminine. So for some of you I feel like the person you're asking about was probably assigned female at birth. Looking at the tarot cards, I strongly felt the energy of someone wanting to be a mother. Or to make it gender neutral, wanting to have a child of their own that they can provide for and help grow. This person is trying to manifest birth. First of all, their own rebirth. I feel like they've been brought down a lot in their life and made to feel like they were not enough. Especially in romantic relationships. So this person wants to manifest their own power back is what I'm getting, which is beautiful. The second thing I'm picking up on is being in a romantic connection that uplifts them and allows them to express their true potential and stand in their feminine energy. A connection where they can be vulnerable and express their love freely, without fearing rejection. Also, they wish to find balance between their own personal goals and their relationships in general. Like, they want a partner that will give them enough room to pursue their own aspirations and will not blame them or shame them for it. They are also trying to manifest more gentleness and self care, self love. This person looks for a partner that will make them feel understood, valued and respected. Someone that will treat them like royalty because they feel like they've been through so much and getting such treatment would be a retribution for all that they've put up with. This person also wants to manifest intimacy, on a spiritual, emotional and physical level. They want a person that will be receptive to their love and reciprocate it equally.

Now looking at the oracle cards, I pick up on someone wanting to be more authentic in general. Being able to express their truth and communicate their thoughts without being laughed at, underestimated or taken for granted. They are trying to manifest healthier connections that will enhance their light instead of diminishing it. This person is just done with waiting for others to give them what is their natural right and constantly being the one to make compromises. They are working hard to manifest a version of themselves that is no longer self sabotaging, whether that is in their job or in relationships. They are manifesting their divine self basically. When it comes to romance, they are trying to manifest a partner that is honest, truthful, clear about their intentions and expectations. Someone that is mature and responsible, that will create healthy boundaries and encourage them to be proactive, to stand in their light and show themselves to the world. Someone that will help them with their body image, that will highlight their assets and help them see the best in them. A person that will be supportive of them and will not be ashamed of showing them off. Someone that won't be afraid of expressing their love for them publically. Basically, a divine masculine that matches their high frequency. That vibe is really being confirmed by the crystal cards. With Serpentine, I get the message that this person is also trying to manifest a more sensual aspect of themselves. They're working on their self confidence and body image. They may be exploring their sexuality a bit more. They're trying to manifest their dream body. With Obsidian, I'm told this person is trying to manifest more protection from spirit and to bring in more positivity in their life, more joy and pleasure. With Quartz, they're also manifesting clarity and a stronger faith. They're trying to overcome their self limiting beliefs and have a better vision of what is good for them.

How are you aligning with those manifestations ? -> knight of wands, ace of pentacles, 8 of wands, knight of swords -> The Universe, Self Love, Speak Truth, Soul Work -> Meteorite - Connect to your star stuff, Kyanite - Deepen your perspective, Black Tourmaline - Protect your light

First of all, you are a naturally very empathetic and high vibrational being. If you resonate with that, you may be a starseed. You and this person come from the same soul tribe. Your souls are made of a similar cloth. You are very communicative, blunt and authentic. You have no problem speaking your mind, standing up for what you believe in. You are passionate, bold, creative. You are not afraid to get out of your comfort zone and you like being challenged. You're naturally curious and a fast learner. You are giving and generous. You do not judge people. You like to learn and you interact with people from various backgrounds. You just are charismatic, uplifting, cheerful, fun and optimistic. In a group a friend, you're the cheerleader type. You always root for your team and have others' back. If someone is trying to badmouth a person you care about, you'd be the first on the frontline. You may be a bit reckless at times and impulsive but that never comes from a bad place. You're quite friendly, smart, witty. You have a lot to give and to share with people. You're someone that's very confident in their own skills and isn't afraid of their shadows. You fully embrace yourself and unapologetically shine your light onto the world which I feel is exatcly what this person needs and hopes for. You're quite mature and stable, though you may be a bit naive and young. I feel like you're a laidback individual that just minds their own business and people may mistake that for being careless. But you're everything except that. I think you care more than anyone else but you just don't let that set you off balance. You're a visionary and a fighter. You just light up the world and inspire people just by being you. I feel like you align with this person's manifestations because you would make a very loyal and passionate lover. And seeing how communicative you are, you would have no problem being vocal about how wonderful this person is, how much you love them and how beautiful they are. You seem to be someone that validates people through words of affirmation which I think is very healing to people.

Looking at the oracle cards, I get the message that you are highly spiritual and connected to the divine. You may believe in a higher power. You cultivate self love and self care and encourage people to do the same. You are very mindful of your words and actions. You care about the impact you have on others. You care about the difference you can make in the world. You're very active in general, you may advocate for several causes. You may travel a lot. You're well traveled and educated. I feel like this person would be able to learn a lot from you and grow individually because of the wisdom you've acquired through experience. You've done a lot of soul searching, a lot of shadow work. You're a healed and balanced individual that genuinely loves people and life. You're a good friend, a good lover. You work well in teams. You understand how the Universe works and you just go with the flow. You're a natural healer. You instantly make people at ease. Your feminine and masculine energies are quite balanced. You take good care of your health on all levels. You just embody the reality that you wish to see and set the example for yourself and the people you love. You're quite a respectable person and so your vibrations just match very well with what this person envisions for themselves. I feel like they could take you as a role model and a mentor and being by your side they would bloom beautifully. I feel like you're someone who's got a lot of love to give. You're very accepting of others, of their shortcomings and assets. You're not the kind to reject people because of their differences. That actually may be something that interests you. You may naturally feel more attracted to people that come from a different culture or a different background. I feel like you and this person match because you are both very deep people, you think a lot and question yourselves a lot. Chances are your conversations would be endless. Like I get the energy of two people getting lost in conversation because every time one says something it reminds them of something else and they just lose track of the subject. You seem to have similar goals in life and aspirations. I didn't mention it first but looking at the tarot again, with all that fire and that ace of pentacles energy, that could also be talking about birth and sexuality. So maybe you also wish to have children someday. Or you could have similar creative ambitions. Maybe you have a common passion. Seeing that we have a lot of cards revolving around communication, maybe you both enjoy writing or singing. This could be something that brings you together.

Group 2

Channeled song(s) and other miscellanous info : GDRAGON - Power, Stray Kids - ALL IN, France, witchy energy, natural empath, psychic gifts, struggling with self worth wounds, metal enthusiast, color green, heart chakra activation, Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Libra

What are they trying to manifest? -> page of pentacles, 6 of pentacles, Temperance, Ace of cups -> The Observer, The Void, Soul Work, The Wildling -> Jet - Claim your space, Hiddenite - Claim your happy place, Topaz - Increase your fire power

I picked up on many messages right away as I shuffled the cards. And the first thing that came up was "learning opportunities". So the person you were asking about may be trying to get back to school or to manifest a specific project that would allow them to hone their skills. The other thing I picked up on was peace. This person is looking for peace in relationships. They don't want to have to struggle for their partner's attention. This person grew up in a background where they constantly had to fight to be recognized and receive love. They feel like they've never truly been loved for who they are. They are trying to manifest balance and fairness. Connections that will be equally giving and taking. Connections where they can lay back for once and allow themselves to receive instead of being the giver. This person was parentified at a very young age. They constantly had to give their time and energy to others and they didn't have a say in that. This person just wants a genuine and peaceful love. A relationship that will not be a constant battle. I'm sorry if this triggers anyone but I pick up on the energy of people that grew up in abusive families. That watched one of their parent or siblings being mistreated by others and couldn't speak up. If that is your case, I'm so sorry that you had to go through such a horrible experience. Also, I heard very specifically that the person is wanting to manifest their crush. Which made me laugh because it was like this person was saying "it's them or no one else", "this person is mine". "My precious" kind of thing lmao They want someone that will only have eyes for them and most importantly that they won't have to share.

This impression was further confirmed by the oracle cards. Being young, this person never really had the space to be their own individual. They never had anything that was theirs. They constantly had to share and overgive and they couldn't say no. They had no intimacy, no time for themselves. They were constantly watched, constantly trapped in other people's problems, having to do the healing for others. Having to work for the benefit of others. They were used and abused because of their skills and their kindness. This person wasn't taught to express their boundaries. They constantly had to fight to have the right to just be. They constantly had to prove themselves. They were never the chosen one I heard. This person may have been in a lot of toxic relationships, potentially third party situations. Like, they constantly had to work extra hard to be valued and recognized on a romantic level. Most of the time they would go to extreme lengths for the people they loved only to be given bread crumbs. Sometimes their partners weren't having the best intentions or already were in connections and were just taking advantage of them. I feel like this person is manifesting more truthfulness and retribution for the damage that has been done to them. A lot of healing is coming their way. Also, they are consciously trying to manifest psychic skills or just better observational skills. I feel like this person is so done with not seeing people's red flags. They want to be able to tell right away whether a person has good intentions or not. I feel like they're also tired of wasting their time in connections so maybe the reason why they hone their intuition is also to be able to tell wether the connections are worth it on the long run. They're trying to manifest more willpower and stronger boundaries to protect themselves from harm. When it comes to what they look for in a partner, I feel like they wish to attract a person that they won't have to second guess. Someone that will not play mind games with them and just tell it like it is. A person that will be very sweet and collaborate with them instead of being their adversary. A person that will not trigger that fight or flight response that they used to be in as a child. A person that will soothe and nurture them. They are also working very hard to claim a space of their own. So another thing they are manifesting is their freedom, whether it is financial or material. They want a space of their own where they can make their own decisions and have whatever they feel is right for them without constantly having to justify themselves. They're also manifesting an energy of being more present to themselves and enjoying life instead of worrying about the past / future. With Topaz, they also try to manifest healing from past connections and cutting ties with toxic people around them, including family members. They're also maybe manifesting a new passion or hobby. Maybe this person wasn't feeling satisfied with their current job or way of living and they wish to pursue a new path. So they're calling that energy in. I feel like they're also just trying to manifest more physical intimacy. This person may never have had the chance to be physical with their partners or if they did, it wasn't as they expected. So they wish to manifest sexual experience that is genuine and liberating, and actually feels good.

How are you aligning with those manifestations? -> Empress, King of pentacles, 2 of cups, Knight of cups -> Power, Underworld, The Outlaw, Paradox -> Malachite - Claim your success, Green Calcite - Live out your heart's desire, Shiva Lingam - Go all in on your essence

You are naturally sensual and giving, nurturing. Very feminine regardless of your gender. You've been through a lot in life and acquired a lot of experience, especially romantically. You're pretty clear about your desires in life, your expectations in a partner and what you expect of intimacy. You are an experienced lover. A very passionate one. You're not afraid to explore and try out different things, in all areas of life, including intimacy. You're quite open minded and receptive of other people. You take care of others really well and just effortlessly quiet down people's worries. You have a very calm and grounded energy that instantly makes people at ease. You are a serious person. You do not date for fun. You date with a purpose and that is to be committed. I feel like when you date a person, it is with the hope that this person will become your life partner. You're an exclusive person. When you love someone, you give them your undivided attention. You're a stable person. You know how to manage on your own. But you also know how to navigate your personal goals and needs with a relationship. You make space for your partner and naturally align with them. You know how to express your own individuality without repressing that of others. You're a gentle soul. You're romantic and very venusian in the way you express love. I feel like you're the type of person that likes to pamper their lover. Your main love languages may be acts of service, quality time and gift giving. You show love in very tangible and unmistakable ways. Your intentions are pretty genuine. You do things with purpose and care. You're cautious and respectful. You're the type of person that asks for consent, that communicates frequently to avoid any misunderstandings. You're a good listener and give good advice. Your patience knows no boundaries. You align with this person manifestations because of your maturity as well as your high frequenvy as an individual. Your work ethic and life principles make your a reliable person. I don't sense any toxicity coming from you. You've done a lot of healing over the years and you embody both the femine and masculine energies in a healthy way. Maybe you've been engaged before and that has taught you a lot about relationships. You know your body well and you're very in tune with your emotions.

Looking at the oracle cards, I see that your passion and drive, your ability to think out of the box and see things from a different perspective allow you to easily adapt to this person. Again, you're a fast learner and you quickly pick up on people's energy. You assess situations easily and you have no problem making compromises because you know that's just part of life. You're daring and quite unique. You may be neurodivergent. But more importantly I feel like you have been through experience that is very similar to this person's back ground. You may have struggled with the same wounds and fears. And your advantage is that you overcame most of them. Because you've been through so much yourself and was still able to find your own voice in all that chaos, to shine your light and rise above it all, you are in the best position not only to understand them but also to encourage them to do the same. You're like a beacon for this person. A guide even. I feel like you may have a similar life calling. Also, you could both enjoy travelling. Both of you are very intense and deep individuals. You may find it hard to connect with other people. Your depth mainly comes from your life experience. Another thing I wish to point out is that you're quite the horny type lmao for some reason that felt relevant. And I feel like this is something the person you were asking about would find enjoyable. You are also both very charismatic and driven individuals. So you may understand each other on a professional or academic level. I really pick up on travelling. Like two people hyping each other up to make a world trip or something lmao Maybe that's part of your dreams and this person would be totally okay with helping you do that. That could be a dream you have in common. Also the fact that everything you do comes from the heart. You have a very open heart chakra and you do things with love. Your creativity seems to be of significance as well. Your spirituality too. Having a child was also mentioned on one of the cards, so there's that as well. Coming back on that heart chakra energy, you just listen to your heart instead of your ego. So, that brings you closer to this person. So like, if you were in a difficult situation I feel like you would still choose them over anything else. Which is something this person desperately needs.

Group 3

Channeled song(s) and other miscellanous info : HWASA - I love my body, earth sign energy, body positivity, third eye chakra activation, Reiki, New York, emo and goth vibes, Aries, Taurus, Capricorn, Virgo, Pisces

What are they trying to manifest ? -> 9 of pentacles, 4 of pentacles, knight of pentacles, queen of wands -> Ascension, The Alchemist, Ask Body, The Observer -> Herkimer Diamond - Power wash your energy, Danburite - turn on your electric light, Chrysoprase - Grow from your heart out

The emphasis here is being put on material aspects of life as well as one's self confidence, body image and sexuality. The person you were asking about first and foremost wishes to manifest more abundance and stability in their life. They may be in a situation where they don't earn enough money to have a stable life. They may barely be able to pay their bills and get food on the table. Also, I feel like they're working very hard on their career and academic success. This feels like their main priority. When it comes to love and relationships, I feel like they want to attract a partnership in which they will not feel ashamed of themselves and will feel comfortable showing their body and being intimate. This person definitely fears intimacy. They may have gone through bad experience when it comes to being intimate with people. They could have been bullied because of their physical appearance as a child. Even by their own family I feel. They may have struggled with eating disorders. So this person is working on manifesting their dream body as well as more love towards themselves, a partner that will reflect that back to them. Someone that will compliment them and reassure them. They really need to feel safe and protected in connections. Grounded. So they would want a partner that gives them a lot of verbal validation, someone that is into PDA and also a person that could help them with their career. A person that would support them financially. Someone that will provide for them when they're not able to. They also strive for more independance I feel. This person doesn't want to constantly rely on others to be able to live a proper life. They are trying to manifest more pleasure and fun. They may also be working on manifesting a proposal or a business offer. They could be scripting to attract their future spouse. I feel like they would want someone that is as successful and driven as they are. Potentially a person that works in a similar field and can provide them with useful advice. A person that will help them embody the ideal version of themselves. So maybe someone that would work out with them or help them with meal prep. This person needs reliable people, trustworthy people that will protect them and stand up for them when they're not able to stand up for themselves. And I feel like that may be tied to their childhood experience. Maybe this person didn't feel supported and protected by their parents. Maybe they struggled with finding a community they fit in and friends that would have their back. Especially if they have been bullied, this person may steal be affected by that experience and may have felt like they were on their own and no one helped them. So they just don't want to have to go through that again. I feel like they want to manifest a partner that is strong and grounded, a person that would interfere in an argument if someone was disrespectful to them.

With the oracle cards, I feel like they also want to gain clarity on their life purpose. They may be working on manifesting their true calling. They could be working on some skills as well, potentially psychic ones. This person is trying to gain more knowledge and ascend, both spiritually and on a societal level. I feel like they want to manifest a promotion of sort or just gain more recognition. They want to change their luck and have fate in their favor kind of. Like, they want to manifets success in every aspect of their life. Because so far they feel like they've always received the shorter end of the stick. This person may have lacked a lot of affection and just material goods as a child. They could come from background where they barely had enough to eat. I feel like this person made a lot of sacrifices to get where they are now. And they wish for their efforts to pay off. They want to manifest long lasting love that will not falter even in the face of adversity. They could have abandonment wounds. This could be very specific but I pick up on the energy of someone being broken up with because of financial issues. Like, this person's partner was with them only because of their status or possessions. But once that person wasn't doing as well financially, they broke up with them. It could also be that they were rejected because they were considered to be "less beautiful/attrative than" others or just not on the same level. I'm also picking up on discriminations based on culture. Because this person was of a certain culture they were deemed as "less than" by their partners. And so this person wasn't truly loved for who they were but rather for what they had or the advantage they gave people. Like "trophy wife/husband" kind of thing. And this person is done with not being seen for their true self. They want to manifest more chemistry with their partners also. Maybe past relationships were just transactional, based on interest or appearances. And now this person wants a partner that's actually attracted to them, their personality, their body, their essence.

How do you align with those manifestations? -> Emperor, Devil, 6 of cups, White Numen -> Shadow, Share Wisdom, Ascension, Self Love -> Epidote - Upgrade your version of you, Amethyst - Get drunk on your highest self, Selenite - Clear your path to enlightenment

As a person, you may be naturally quite confident and bold, ambitious, dedicated and opinionated. You don't take no for an answer and when you have somethin in mind, you'll do everything in your power to reach that goal, no matter what or how long it may take. The Emperor combined with the Devil gives me major CEO vibes. Not only are you are workaholic, but you're a successful one at that. You also make your achievements and stability your top priority so you definitely understand this person's stance. Actually, you may make a very good team business wise. Or at least, you would be a great supporter and a trustworthy advisor for this person when it comes to their project and goals. You are very in control of the image you convey, of your immediate environment and your wealth. You're very self aware which makes you a great rival and strategist. You do not play and many people may admire you and even possibly fear you because you my dear exude such natural power that anyone would feel intimidated by just looking at you in the eyes. Needless to say that you're a very effective communicator, an excellent negociator and a very convincing person because you're also incredibly charming and sensual. When it comes to romance and sexuality, you are very open minded. You're the perfect combination of being in control but also going with the flow. Your boundaries are clear but your natural curiosity and free spirited approach allow you to explore beyond them and give connections a hint of spice.

You're also a very positive person. You have a "see the glass half full" mindset that allows you to navigate through life easily. You can solve problems in creative ways, manoeuvre your way between obsacles because your sight is broad. You're always a few steps ahead. And you're not afraid to go off the tracks because you know you'll find your way back anyway. You have a lot of trust in yourself but also in life, in your guides. You are a very spiritual person by nature. You may be religious as well so that adds to your confidence. You wouldn't let anyone or anything stand in your way and that attitude brings you a lot of respect and admiration. It also makes you the perfect ally for this person because you can nudge them and inspire them so they can embody the best version of themselves.

As a romantic partner, you definitely are the romantic and reassuring kind. Your energy feels very masculine. You are the protector and the provider, you take the lead and create a safe space for your partner. You value quality time and touch, you are also very emotionally available. Your energy feels more mature and I get a feeling you may be more advanced on your spiritual journey. For these reasons, you align with this person's manifestations because you embody the type of partner that would be beneficial to them. You like to take care of yourself but you also love to pamper your loved ones. You are more of a soft dom. Your extroversion and assertive nature are inviting and definitely exciting. You are the perfect spark to ignite this person's life but also fuel their creative fire. You empower them and help them empower themselves by giving them the opportunity to directly visualize the kind of person they could become and the steps needed to get there. You may have already found your calling or have established a name for yourself. Maybe you and this person effectively work in the same field. Or they are destined to take a path similar to yours. That would make you the best mentor and guide.

You also align with their manifestations because of the love and respect you have for yourself. The softness that you cultivate and the experience you acquired over time. Because of your ability to understand others and be proactive while respecting yourself and being mindful of others. Because of your genuine enthusiasm but most importantly because you've been there before. You know the struggles they've faced. You understand the pains they've been through because you harbor the same scars. The only difference is that you overcame that and proved all your haters wrong by standing up for yourself, never giving up on your dreams and going at your own pace. You protected your peace, stayed true to your principles and carved your way proudly, despite the naysayers and the fears. To be honest the energy of this section for this group feels pretty similar to group 2's. You may want to check that group second sub section for further messages.

I’m sorry, but my type-a ass cannot be against the Rat Grinders. They’re essentially the kids that couldn’t get the special treatment from teachers and get by on stumbling through tests and happening to get an A without studying. The Rat Grinders feel less like people who cheated the system, and more like the kids who aren’t naturally gifted or lucky, and have to spends hours on end studying, doing extra homework and extra credit, losing their social lives and free time to catch up with the kids who can just breeze through it. Fig never went to a single class or did any homework but gets away with it because the coach, lunch lad, and vice principal are her dads, Kristin and Riz did literally the worst thing their respective class can do, Gorgug actively works to avoid using the main feature of his class whenever possible, Adaine became the Oracle through seemingly happenstance, and Fabian’s rich family bought his way into the extra curricular he’s now the captain of, and all of them skipped half of freshman year! Obviously we, the audience, know that they worked their asses off to get through school each year and to get where the are today. We know they earned every little good thing they have! Fig has worked so hard to become the rockstar she is! Kristin literally brought back a god! Riz in a supergenius detective! Gorgug is an incredible barbarian and artificer! Adaine works so hard to help all of her friends survive a toxic system! Fabian slaved away to earn his achievements himself instead of letting his father’s legacy be his identity! But think of it from an outside perspective, without all the knowledge that only the audience has! These random kids stumbled into three adventures that let them skip grinding for XP, got to miss half a year with no consequence, get special privileges and quests because they are related to or friends with the faculty, never do their assignments or go to class, became popular because of their privileges, and now randomly start spouting micro aggressions towards halflings? If I was one of the Rat Grinders, I’d be pissed off too! I’ve been both the gifted kid, seemingly effortlessly breezing through classes and befriending the entire faculty while secretly going through terrible struggle and stress, and the kid desperately trying to game my way through a system built to harm me while being furious at those who seem to thrive in it, and I can’t help but feel empathy for both. I don’t think the Rat Grinders are evil, cheating monsters who plan to destroy the Bad Kids out of spite. I think they’re just kids in a harmful toxic school system that have a lot of righteous anger at their lot in life, that has sadly been misdirected. Idk if this ramble made sense, sorry for the wall of text!

Edit:Introducing Ivy Embra, the first Rat Grinder to actually be antagonistic to anyone in any way! Also introducing Oisin Hakivar, a super nice guy who’s willing to take advantage of his generational wealth in order to help a fellow student! So the first Rat Grinder to actively be nice to someone too! He likely did something with the ice mephits, but he still seemed genuinely sympathetic and helpful to Adaine!

What about a Yandad! Poseidon with his mortal/ demigod daughter??

❝ 🌊 — lady l: I got carried away and ended up writing a mini imagine. This is not canon and is based on the voices in my head lol, but I hope you like it and forgive me for any mistakes! 💙

❝tw: threats and a slight yandere!Poseidon, but other than that, nothing else.

❝🌊pairing: platonic yandere!poseidon x daughter!reader.

❝word count: 683.

You grew up at Camp Half-Blood, surrounded by other demigods and learning to control your divine powers. Your relationship with Poseidon was complex; on the one hand, you benefited from his protection, but on the other, the shadow of prohibition hung over you. The sea god, your father, had a clear interest in your fate, and the other demigods couldn't help but feel the aura of power that surrounded you.

Your relationship with Percy Jackson, the already known hero and son of Poseidon, was a highlight. The two half-sibilings trained together, shared experiences, and supported each other in battles against monsters and other threats. The bond between them grew, consolidating a formidable partnership, feared by many enemies. Poseidon was more than pleased to see his two favorite children get along so well.

In the years that followed, Poseidon's presence in his daughter's life was constant. He guided you in training, sharing secrets of the seas and teaching you how to control your aquatic powers. As time passed, your abilities stood out among the rest. Poseidon's influence ensured that the instructors at camp also paid special attention to you, preparing you for even greater challenges. However, the constant gaze of the god of the sea also generated distrust among your fellow demigods, fueling rumors and jealousy.

Life at Camp Half-Blood wasn't easy. Monsters constantly threatened the perimeter, and quests were often assigned to the most skilled demigods. Poseidon, in turn, began to discreetly intervene in your life, providing help at crucial moments and ensuring you were one step ahead of impending dangers.

However, your relationship with the sea god was not just one of benefits. In dreams and visions, you began to receive cryptic messages and warnings from other gods and titans, warning you of the implications of being so close to Poseidon. A god can never be involved in his children's lives, well, the demigods children at least.

Tension between the gods grew as your bond with Poseidon deepened. Zeus, in particular, viewed the increasing influence his brother had over you with suspicion. The warnings from the other gods increased, and the shadows of destiny began to manifest themselves more clearly.

One night, during a vivid dream, Triton, the son of Poseidon with his wife and your half-brother, appeared before you. His eyes expressed concern as he warned of the consequences of ignoring divine warnings.

"Proximity to our father can bring blessings, but also curses," Triton said, his voice echoing like the waves of the sea.

Quests abroad became more dangerous, with more powerful monsters and mythological creatures challenging the demigods. Poseidon continued to intervene subtly, but now his help was under the scrutiny of the Olympian gods. Zeus, in his wrath, explicitly prohibited any divine intervention in your quests.

Once, during a battle against a colossal sea beast, you found yourself on the brink of defeat, your companions also injured. Desperate, you silently cried out for Poseidon's help. He responded, sending a furious wave to defeat the monster, but the price of this intervention was high. On Olympus, Zeus' anger became uncontrollable.

The situation reached a critical point when an oracle prophesied that the proximity between Poseidon and you would trigger a catastrophe that would affect not only the demigods, but the entire balance of the mythological world. The gods' prohibition on interfering in the lives of their children became an unbreakable decree.

Poseidon, however, didn't care one bit. You were his daughter and he would help you if he wanted.

Thinking about solo or GM-less games, I found myself wondering if there are any TTRPGs that are sort of like Vampire Survivors, or that genre of run-based autoshooters where you collect semi-random power-ups/weapons and face off against hordes of enemies and work to level up/evolve the powers/weapons that you have. It's maybe a bit specific, but do you know of any games like that, or with systems similar to that?

THEME: Vampire Survivors.

Hello friend,

I tried to learn a little bit about Vampire Survivors, but I'll be fairly candid here when I say I'm not sure if I nailed this assignment or not.

Vampire Survivors appears to be a rogue-like shoot-em-up game with special abilities and bonuses applied to your character using upgrades acquired by opening chests.

I tried to spread as wide a net as possible, so I hope you still find something that suits your tastes!

Blister Critters, by stillfleet.

Take the reins of radiation-blasted animals known as Critters starring in an eco-apocalyptic Saturday-morning cartoon show in this goofy and exciting tabletop roleplaying game (TTRPG) from Odd Gob Games and the Stillfleet Studio!

Using the innovative Grit System, Blister Critters drops players into a bizarre post-human world of Blisters (mutations), physics-bending Nonsense powers, dangerous feral Beasts, and a near-infinite amount of human Stuff.

Blister Critters is all about getting new stuff, but Stuff in this game is a rather broad category. This includes loot that is mechanically helpful, or loot that is more descriptive, and adds interesting flavor to the world. I think post-apocalyptic games in general can have a lot of fun narrative flavor added just through the gear you can pick up.

That being said, the most common benefits Stuff can give you is either additional damage, or additional protection from damage, so that tells me this is a fairly combat-friendly game. The design aesthetic is also so inspirational, and I think you could get a lot of fun ideas just flipping through this game.

Escape from Hades, by only1marek.

Escape From Hades is a roleplaying game inspired by Hades from Supergiant games which uses a card-based twist on the LUMEN system kit. This game follows the escape attempt of Condemned trying to ascend through the underworld in opposition of its Master.

Condemned players are the could-have-beens of Greek myth, favored for greatness by the Gods but condemned to obscurity by Fate; a warrior who trained under Achilles but died of plague before seeing battle, or an oracle who learned the secrets of Delphi just as prophecy was deemed forbidden.

The Master player holds Hades’ authority, and is divinely charged with deploying the hordes of the underworld's greatest soldiers, criminals, heretics, beasts and monsters to stymie the Condemned's escape from their assigned place in the underworld.

Escape from Hades is a LUMEN game, and I wanted to recommend at least one LUMEN game in this post, because this system is so very good at replicating the feeling of video games, and also provides a very satisfying game loop. This particular game is inspired by the Hades video game franchise, and so the items are inspired by the divine power-ups that you get from various deities.

As written, the power-ups aren't very random, but I think some small tweaks from the game master might be able to replicate randomization if you really want it. Finally, leveling up your powers to feel more and more competent is definitely part of these kinds of games: each upgrade to your character can enhance abilities you already have, making future runs more and more effective at taking out some of the higher-level obstacles.

Blood Neon, by Radmad.

Show no mercy because you will be shown none. Bash and shred your way to glory, and become the one thing the fearless fear. The 11th Realm’s elected monarch has reached into another dimension for profit, creating a golden age of consumerism in the material world. That greed has cost the 11th Realm dearly. Now monsters from a plane only known as the Neon tear through into our reality and wreak havoc on the citizens of the land. The only thing standing between us and annihilation are heroes like you, Neon Hunters who become living weapons. Devastate the enemy, die, and die again, and ascend to new heights of power.

Blood Neon definitely has the feeling of fighting large numbers of enemies at great effect. It's also designed to allow your character to meaningfully progress. However, if you really want to get the feeling of variety and surprise, I think you'll also need to check out the supplement called Atomic Shock. It has new mechanics and rewards, new gear, and new enemies. Probably a good addition if you're looking for powerful gear!

Decree, by Phantom Limbs.

The Demiurge is slain, and the Lords of Sol have vanished. Now, we only have each-other, and the ruins that lie beyond our walls.

Decree is a roleplaying game in which you and your friends play as a party of post-human adventurers, who have set out to delve into the great ruins of our solar system far into the future, in search of lost technology and ancient knowledge. It features a simple and intuitive 2d6 resolution system inspired by Classic Traveller and Chainmail, fast and lethal combat, a wealth of character creation options, and a bounty of tools and gadgets to aid you in your delves.

This game is still fairly early in play-test, which means that it's free to download. Each class in character creation includes a d10 table that you can roll on for gear, so you already start out pretty randomized. The game also has an artifact list that the GM rolls on when the players pick up more loot; some artifacts provide mechanical boosts, while others give you money for purposeful power-ups.

At the end of the day however, the gear in this game doesn't hold nearly as much relevance as the narrative, and the focus of the game is primarily exploration, although I feel like combat might come in at a close second.

Sweet Revenge, by World Champ Game Co.

You may be dead but you’re not quite done living. Journey downward through spirals and circles of Hell, laying waste to any demonic beast that stands in your way. Use the method you died to inform your inventory and abilities on your violent quest. Face off against a trove of fallen angels, giants, infernal beasts, and more on your way to confront the devil and demand your final wish be answered… if you don’t succumb to your darkest traits along the way.

Sweet Revenge is a tabletop roleplaying game for 2-6 players including a Grave Master (GM). The Dead make clever use of their wonderful cabinet of items, the fragments of souls they claim, and the powers of the 7 Deadly Sins in lieu of stats to dive into the depths of hell. Each region is controlled by a powerful demon with whom The Dead face off (if they survive long enough) to make their demand.

Your starting inventory is determined by the method by which you died, which feels very unique and helps Sweet Revenge stand out. You're fighting the forces of Hell in this one, which I think is on par with the overwhelming forces you face off in Vampire Survivor.

Sweet Revenge indicates that it pulls much from OSR-style games, which means that your inventory and items (which are dropped randomly) will be about as useful as the players can make them. A lot of things you find in the game won't have concrete mechanical bonuses - instead your players will need to rely on their own creativity to make the most out of what they find. What I'm really interested in is how the game replaces character stats with the seven deadly sins, which you need to lean into if you want to use your dark powers.

Sweet Revenge comes with a couple of circles for you to get started in, including some enemies for the players to face off against. If you want not just a game but also a guiding scenario to help you learn as you go, you might like this game.

1000 HP Planet, by Sandy Pug Games.

Last week, the planet turned evil and killed every single person on it except for you and your friends. Every ocean became a crushing fist smashed against the cities of the world, and every volcano was a loaded gun pointed right at a cowering humanity.

You and your buds are heroes. Super powered beings with near godlike powers. You’re wizards who have unlocked the secrets of the universe, martial artists who can control every atom in their body, and genius inventors who’ve broken the limits of science. And you’re gonna kick the planets arse for killing everyone you’ve ever met.

But you have a dark secret.

You know why it happened.

Maybe you are why it happened.

Play to find out.

TEN MILLION HP PLANET IS COMING FOR YOU!

10 Million HP Planet is GM-less and fast-paced, with damage to your own character abstracted and damage to the planet counted meticulously. You can leverage pretty much anything that you describe on your turn to improve your dice rolls, and deal massive damage to the gigantic, terrible planet.

This game is about dramatic anime-style fights, with mooks who fight for you to provide ambient damage, conditions that you can fill to multiply damage or add dice, and power colours that synchronize to provide combat currency to buy or activate special powers.

One caveat: the game as written was originally meant to be a little bit unplayable. That doesn't seem to have stopped fans, judging by this fan-made Google Sheet to help you keep track of your die rolls. If you want a big, dramatic, larger-than-life game that's primarily one big fight, you probably want 10 Million HP Planet!

You can also check out…

My Hellbusting Games Recommendation post, which might have some overlap.

I have yet to find a game that does randomized power-ups like Numenera, whose Cypher System consistently gives players interesting short-term abilities that are very effective.

Lancer has character development that is very purposeful, but as you build your mech you can do a lot to make your character very effective at one or two things, which can feel so so so rewarding in play.

Plasmodics focuses a lot on mutation, which is something that I think can be really fruitful if it's randomized. The game page also mentions uncovering artifacts, which can change the world if you find them. Artifacts won't be common, but I think they're probably very impactful.

If you like what I do, you can always leave a tip at my Ko-Fi!

A WHOLE LOT OF NOTHING!

PAIRING barty crouch junior x rosier!reader

SYNOPSIS on the verge of getting your ass whooped by your parents, you take the help of the, oh well, local maniac!

CONTENT WARNING purely crack, girlfailure reader, idk what im doing! fem gryffindor reader, floral nicknames, dialogue heavy, barty needs help i think! fluff, not proofread, kinda filler drabble!

WORD COUNT 0.9k

library.

You’re sitting in the Slytherin common room, trying to convince yourself that Arithmancy is somehow not an evil joke designed to make you cry in public, when Pandora plops down beside you, looking annoyingly cheerful.

You’re already regretting this. It’s only been twelve seconds.

“I don’t need tutoring,” you muttered through gritted teeth, gripping the strap of your pristine bag like it owes you money.

“You failed your last three Arithmancy assignments,” Pandora said serenely, looking at the ceiling like a fairy oracle of doom. “And you put down ‘time is fake’ for the answer to Question Four on the theory exam.”

“Because it is.”

“Barty will help,” Evan swooped in, apparently teleported by sibling radar. “He’s top of the year for a reason, Daisy.”

“He’s unhinged.”

“He’s passionate.”

“He brought a dead rat to Potions class to ‘test a theory.’” you deadpanned, running a tired habd through your face.

“It was for science!” a voice yelled from behind you.

You whirled around, dread already flowing through your body.

There he is. Your sleep paralysis demon himself (No, literally. You once woke up with him somehow standing at the foot of your Gryffindor bed at 4 am). Raccoon hair wild, tie askew, ink stains on both hands and also, inexplicably, his neck.

He looked thrilled to be here. You considered jumping into the black lake head first.

“You ready to LEARN, STUDENT?” he roared with the same energy as someone who has just drunk a full cauldron of coffee and might be about to set something on fire.

“No,” you said flatly. Gosh, how many galleons would it take to bribe Professor Vector into giving you an O?

“Perfect,” he grins. “Let’s begin.”

You’re not sure where the tutoring session was supposed to be, but Barty immediately lead you to the third floor girls’ bathroom.

“I dont know if you're aware, Crouch,” you said, stopping short. “This is a girls' laboratory, and also where Myrtle haunts. Why are we here? What does this possibly have to do with Arithmancy?”

“Peace. Privacy. Excellent acoustics.”

“Acoustics? We’re doing equations.”

“I chant when I concentrate.” he nodded with utmost sincerity.

“…I want to go home.”

“You’re at Hogwarts.”

“Exactly.”

Barty pulled out a textbook that’s clearly been dropped in a pond at some point, opened it to a completely blank page, and said, “So. What’s the square root of a Gringott’s curse modifier when divided by a leyline fluctuation index?”

“That cannot be a real question.”

“Everything’s a question if you’re brave enough.” he sighed with false disappointment.

“Are you high?”

“Well, only on knowledge and a dash of you, little Rosie.”

You looked at him. He’s already halfway through drawing a pentagram on the floor with a sugar quill.

“I’m telling McGonagall,” you said.

“You’ll be thanking me when you pass your next exam,” Barty replied, lighting a small candle with Incendio and tossing it under the nearest sink. “Knowledge is pain.”

Your eye twitched. “That’s not the expression.”

"Celery or whatever Reggie says"

He opened a new book, this one appears to be hand-bound with string and labeled ‘Barty’s Notes – DO NOT TOUCH unless you are Barty or Santos Santa’.

“You don’t need to worry about the fire,” he added casually, scribbling down symbols with his overdipped quill. “Bathroom tiles are flame proof. Definitely. Probably.”

You backed away slightly, already distributing your assets to every single sane bloke you know.

“Today’s session,” he says, “is on numerical ward collapse. Incredibly useful. Also illegal in seventeen countries.”

“I’m twelve.”

“You’re sixteen.”

“Feels like twelve when you talk.”

“Well, thank you, Daisy May.”

“That wasn’t a compliment.”

“I know,” he grinned. “Now hold still.”

You instinctively ducked just as he throws a piece of chalk at your head. It explodes against the wall with a loud crack and released a glowing symbol that looked… suspiciously like a goat?

“What the bloody hell was that?!”

“Calibrating your magical aura, my dear disciple.”

“You hit me with a freaking goat.”

“Near you.”

“WHY is the goat still hovering??”

Barty squinted at it thoughtfully. “Huh. That’s new. Anyways, let’s do some equations!”

“So, if you take the leyline coefficient-”

“Which is?”

“You’d know if you were paying attention-”

“I am! I just can’t listen while I’m actively having a panic attack.”

“Good! Stress sharpens the mind. This is educational.”

“YOU JUST BLEW A HOLE IN THE SINK.”

“It was for demonstration purposes.”

“The water is flooding the floor.”

“Hydration is essential.”

You gave him the blankest stare you could muster. “You are Evan’s friend. You are Pandora’s friend. I am going to tell Mum what you’ve done.”

"Please", He snorted. “Your mum adores me.”

“She thinks you’re ‘weird and jittery’ and once asked if you had rabies.”

“She laughed when she said that!”

“She was holding garlic.”

“Listen,” Barty said seriously, crouching down like a manic goblin in too-long robes, “I can teach you how to feel the numbers. Don’t calculate. Breathe. Accept the equation into your soul.”

You blinked. “You need help.”

“I am help.”

You’re about to bolt when Barty clapped his hands.

“Time for flashcards!” he announced, holding up what is very clearly a shuffled tarot deck from Pandora.

“Those are not flashcards.”

“Tell that to the Ministry,” he muttered, flipping one over. “This one means ‘death’- which reminds me, if your magical signature doesn’t match the rune circle in exactly three minutes, the floor may implode.”

You just stared at him.

He grinned.

You pulled out your quill and immediately started writing.

BOOM!

You stormed into the common room with wild eyes, a soaked robe, and possibly the lingering scent of burnt toothpaste.

“Why,” you demanded, breath still short “did you make me do that?”

Pandora, on the floor surrounded by floating teacups, looks up serenely. “Did you learn anything?”

“Yes.”

“See?”

“I learned that Barty Crouch is clinically unfit to be near school supplies.”

Evan looked up from his chessboard, raising a brow. “Did he try the goat spell again?"

“I have seventeen mosquito bites and no idea how to add fractions now.”

Pandora smiled. “So productive, daisy!”

You hissed.

Remembered a post I saw about how stupid Porter was for not realising how useful Adaine would have been with all her pent up rage if she had been rage starred.

It is highly likely someone has already considered/written about this, but imagine:

Porter realises what an asset Adaine would be after hearing about her killing her father. As a result, he arranges something, perhaps a trap set at a meet-up with Oisin as a honeypot, maybe a fake meeting with Prof. Runestaff, or even a private chat where Porter expresses his admiration for Adaine killing her father to lure her in so he can strike. In any case, the shatterstar finds its new home in Adaine's chest.

In this timeline, Oisin has outlived his usefulness, and his body rots in the woods alongside Lucy’s. His friends mourn him, but they would never mess with the Big Guy.

So the Bad Kids gradually watch Adaine become more angry and more violent after Spring Break, which they hypothesise might be related to her parents but they’re not sure. Adaine's not usually so rageful, and they don't want to hurt her. They ask Aelwyn, but she doesn't know either. Aelwyn tries to talk to Adaine, who completely goes off on one at her. Aelwyn is shocked and hurt, especially after so long in prison, after being subject to endless torture. Her sister who saved her is screaming at her and Aelwyn hates it.

The worst thing is how much she is reminded of their mother when she looks at Adaine.

They go to Jawbone for help, but by then Adaine is gone.

She goes back to Sylvaire to kill her mother, fuelled by the power of rage, but Porter stops her and gives her a personal rundown on how exactly the hierarchy of their conspiracy operates. After he’s finished, he heals her with some of his ‘barbarian healing’, the Rat Grinders welcome their new party member Adaine Abernant.

She completely blanks the Bad Kids. The entire school has no idea what's going on. Ayda tries to talk to Adaine, but she lashes out and Ayda flees back to Compass Points to desperately read every book she can in the Friendship Section and stockpile oranges. Jawbone's attempts to reach out to Adaine are met with nothing but anger.

Boggy is not resummoned. The Jacket of Useful Things ends up in a rubbish bin in downtown Elmville.

The Night Yorb escapes and the Bad Kids (or most of them) are forced to rush off again to save the world, leaving Adaine behind.

The rest of the Rat Grinders are terrified of their new party member. She's brutal and angry, so much more than them. They miss their nerdy dragonborn wizard and their kindly genasi cleric. Their new 'friend' clearly isn't there out of the kindness of her heart. They can see hate in her eyes aimed at something. Someone.

The Rat Grinders get a new assignment over Summer too.

In the middle of the Wastes, as they're tracking down the Night Yorb without their wizard, the Bad Kids suddenly hear the news: Sylvaire is burning.

Adaine is tearing apart Sylvaire with every ounce of magic at her disposal. She is annihilating vast swathes of forest, razing the ground itself, drawing on the great reserves of power provided by Ankarna's tormented semi-corpse. The Oracle sends her adventuring party and any bystanders that she can bend to her will out into the forest to find Arianwen Abernant and bring the woman, alive, to her. Cassandra's home is on fire, she needs help. She summons the Bad Kids, Aelwyn, anyone or anything she can find to help her, to save her. To stop Adaine. But desperate times call for desperate measures.

The Nightmare King and the Oracle of Rage battle over the Forest of Sylvaire as it burns.

Idk, thought this might be a fun idea.

While struggling to coordinate a hundred superheroes to help manage a city wide crisis Barbara realizes to her shock and horror she accidentally assigned Cassandra and Misfit to be on a team together. Babs: Oh jesus, just... stay there for now, I'll send someone to relieve you. Charlie, keep your mouth shut and Cass please go easy on her, she's just a stupid kid. Oracle out. Charlie: Oh yeah, Oracle isn't dead btw. Don't know if you knew that, I'm part of a pretty exclusive club. We're super tight, she's sort of like my mentor. Mother, even. Not that I'd wanna put words in her mouth or anything, I just sort of sense it in the way she talks to me. You're Black Bat these days right? Don't feel bad, she said I wasn't good enough to be Batgirl either. Cass: Nobodydiestonightnobodydiestonightnobodydiestonight- Charlie: What was that? Cass: Nothing.

Oracle!Reader Part 10

Masterlist - Part 1, Part 9, Part 11

This chapter has sensitive topics! This time it's less on the religious side and more on the general awful shit that happens. It's specifically about a child (and adults) so you are warned!

Sunlight streams through the flap in the tent waking you up. Crawling out of the tent a gift laid in front sparkling for your attention.

A rough and raw cut Cor Lapis innocently sat where the hatchling used to be. Fingertips gently caressed the object before you stashed it away. Another item to be sold if you came upon hard times.

After packing up everything and eating a light breakfast you began the trek to Liyue. Activating and using that teleport waypoint would be so much easier but the suspicion you would get from it was just not worth it.

Farmers, hikers, and the occasional adventurer passed by as you hiked and eventually got to the Guild. Katheryne spots you and smiles.

"Ad astra abyssosque! Welcome to the Adventurers' Guild. Ready to start your first set of commissions Y/N?"

"As ready as I'll ever be." You mutter as you take the paper from her hands. Moving to the side, more adventurers are welcomed and assigned commissions. Fingers crossed for easy commissions, you scanned the list and the corresponding map.

Straight to the Heart - Qingxin must be freshly picked to be made into effective medicine. Pick it off the mountain and get it to the caretaker within the time limit. Enemies may be in the area.

Full Speed Ahead - The path is needed for a transportation vehicle moving people. Make sure the path is clear within the time limit. Defeating enemies may be necessary.

Increasing Danger - Hilichurls are building towers in the circled area. Destroy these towers for the safety of the people.

That last one would be hard, you weren't comfortable at the thought of hurting the cursed people of Khaenri'ah as well as the other civilizations that Celestia bombed. Your characters were always strong enough to destroy the towers and leave but you aren't.

Perhaps you can lure them to a different area and destroy the towers once they were distracted? Do they count as creatures of Teyvat that could recognize you as the creator? Or is the corruption from Celestia too strong?

Spreading Evil - A abyssal mage is scheming something in the square area. Defeat it and it's hilichurl allies by preventing the completion of the ritual.

Nevermind, this one takes the cake on what you did not want to do. What will you do if the abyssal mage is electro? You're basically useless! Well, maybe not since you can light up a torch and burn it till the shield breaks but still. Your divine aura may be prominent to them and cause them to report back to the Abyssal Prince. You weren't eager to ever meet him.

You go back to Katheryne and show her the commission list.

"Just a question, is the abyssal mage in this a electro one?"

Katheryne opens a separate book and scans it for a second before nodding. "That's correct, it was reported to be a electro abyss mage with four hilichurl allies."

"I'm afraid I can't accept this commission. I can only control electro and the shield can't be broken by simply waiting for it to rain like I can with pyro mages."

Katheryne nods at your words and flips through the book as she speaks. "Understood, the only commissions left at this time are either in a rank above you or too far away. You can wait here or check back in a few days to see if we receive any more commissions."

Would it be worth it to try convincing her that as you have no rank, you can do any commissions? Probably not, arguing with a robot never goes well. Sighing you're about to move away when a man nearly bulldozes you as he tries to get to the counter.

"Please help me! I'll pay whatever I have to if a adventurer can accept my commission!"

Moving to stand at the side you look up at the man and narrow your eyes trying to figure out where you've seen him before. Katheryne takes the panicked state of the man in stride and asks what commission he is trying to request.

"My daughter Yiran was being babysat by a new nanny due to my regular one getting sick, and she was kidnapped! Treasure hoarders stormed the dock area, and the babysitter hid leaving Yiran in the open. I was working at the Blackcliff Forge when the Millelith approached me and told me what happened. The only thing that was retrieved was this."

In his hands is a child sized dirty dark teal shoe. You're only relieved that it isn't bloody. This man is the one who stands near the toy seller with his daughter. Manager Kuan if you remember correctly.

"Please, I'll pay whatever I have to for someone to accept my commission and find my daughter. The Millelith refuse to put more attention on my case due to the increase of monsters. But the more time passes the farther away Yiran gets."

Kuan speaks with urgency as Katheryne shakes her head sadly.

"I'm afraid we don't accept commissions like these. While the guild may rarely accept a lost pet commission, they are usually never completed. To protect our reputation the guild does not accept commissions that we aren't sure can be completed. Only if a adventurer or team personally accept it can we accept it."

This seems to break Kuan even further. Tears of frustration well up in his eyes making him rub them roughly pushing up his glasses. His grief and discouragement is visible on his face as he continues trying to convince Katheryne.

The wind rushing in your ears don't let you hear or make out his next words. The wrinkles in his face seem to deepen and his black hair turns grey. The once short fine hair grows into a shaggy mattered mess of silver. Facial hair grows and tangles together as his clothes are torn into ruin. The once middle-class looking outfit is covered in patches, holes, dirt, and dried blood. It's him.

Dad.

"I'll accept the commission." Your words come out quiet, but he hears them. Turning to you, you see your adoptive father's face flash for a second before it melts away to Kuan's face. The illusion is broken as your father's image is gone with Kuan shakily smiling at you.

"Really? Name your price, I'll pay whatever I have to, to find Yiran."

Closing your eyes in a look of contemplation hides the tears that threatened to build up.

"Let me make it clear. I cannot promise to find Yiran and I will not accept any money unless I manage to find her or her body. I will try my hardest to find her but if after a week, I cannot find her I will have to leave this commission undone. Mostly because she could be in another nation by that point and it would be impossible to find her then."

"I understand, I just want you to try while there is still a chance." Kuan speaks to you with a sad smile. It's uncomfortably too similar to your dad.

Katheryne begins to walk Kuan through the process of drafting a commission and Lan places a hand on your shoulder. The rugged sigh that leaves her as she speaks hint to what she wants to speak to you about.

"Y/N was it? Come and speak with me for a second." Silently you follow her around the building, a safe distance from Kuan.

"You may have talked big game while the funeral director was here but you're a beginner adventurer. Do you understand what kind of commission you just accepted? If you somehow manage to find Yiran, it won't be a little girl. It'll be a gruesome corpse."

"At least that way I can bring something back to bury. Something to remember his daughter by." You say with a sense of longing. Memories of you sobbing over the lack of items to remember your father by rise to the surface.

"Even still, you should have left this to the Millelith. It may be hard not to accept it but you'll regret it when you cannot find anything and come back empty handed. You gave him hope when it's better to just give up-"

Firmly you place your hands on her shoulders. Your grip turns bruising as you force her body closer to yours. Lan's brown bob brushes against your face as you whisper in her ears.

"How hypocritical of you Lan. Don't you realize? You take on any commission containing the word 'sword', no matter the difficulty, to give your brother a proper funeral. That man, that father, is willing to put up with the emotional pain of hope to make the best of his chance at finding his daughter before it really is too late. And I will do what I want, for who I want, for anyone that reminds me of my own motivation. If I have to come back to him and hand him his daughter beaten, bruised, bloody body, then I will."

You push yourself away from Lan as she steps back with fear in her eyes. Her expression changes into a mixture of fright and wariness. There's no doubt that she's wondering how you knew about her mission about her brother. And despite the consequences that can come from this, you can't be bothered to care.

Kuan was not your father but he reminded you so much of him. Your dad that took you in and cared for you how no one else ever bothered to. If helping Kuan gives you the same feeling as when you would help your dad, then you'll gladly do it.

Turning back you turn the corner and Kuan is already smiling tiredly at you. The ache in your heart grows as the swell of happiness refuses to stop.

"Again, thank you so much for accepting. The commission I filled out has all the information I got from the Millelith, it's very little I'm afraid. They are taking this very lightly." There's a bite to his words this time.

"It's okay, I'll make do with the information you gave in. I should get going now to make the most of the time. You can expect to hear from me by the end of the week."

Taking the commission from Katheryne titled 'Missing Treasure' Kuan gives a wave as you begin walking to the city's main entrance. Not wasting time, you start flipping the pages and skimming the pages.

Yiran, a few children, teens, and two adults were taken around the same time. The adults were homeless while the children and teens were either poor or orphans. It seems the treasure hoarders did their homework on their victims.

Kidnapping these vulnerable minorities is a commen tatic in human trafficking. Orphans have no one that would look for them and the government could care less about the homeless. Liyue is such a bustling and thriving market that these kinds of people are pushed out and ignored.

You've lived through that on Earth, you intentionally avoided the rich areas due to this reason. Living here as a homeless orphan would be even worse. People look past you like you don't exist while those that do acknowledge your existence tend to behave violently. The government doesn't fix the problem due the fear of homelessness fueling people to work even when it's not good for them.

Yiran was probably a mistake. Either they were targeting the babysitter, mistoke her for a different victim, or saw her as a lucky grab. If Yiran wasn't kidnapped, the Milelith would have done even less. You shouldn't have expected Liyue to be any better than other rich cities on Earth.

The walk past the glamorous streets feels almost taunting. The guards that doze off and leisurely chat make your blood boil. Scolding them now would do no one any good. It would only eat up the time you need to find Yiran's body. Your thoughts were better off solving this case.

Making a detour you go to the scene of the crime, the docks. It's damp, with little security and it's mostly children and the poor. Makes sense as the main docks are simalir to a tourist area, no one wants trash around.

The majority of the ships are gone meaning no sailors are around. The timing was perfect. For once the treasure hoarders pulled off a good plan. Did the traveler only meet the stupid bunch or were the smart hoarders avoid the traveler intentionally?

Either way you followed the rough path the hoarders took until they left the city entrance. A cart must have been driven due to the amount of people to carry and restrain is too much for a group. This helps you narrow it down that they had to follow the path shown on the map. Liyue's terrarin is filled with mountains and rocks that make it nearly impossible to go off track.

You cross the wooden bridge, pass the small pond, climb the stairs and begin trekking through the path. There's a teleport waypoint that makes you sigh in relief. You really didn't want to have to walk the whole way back, plus it's a quiet enough area that you don't have to worry about witnesses.

Climbing up the boulder, you touch the waypoint and begin climbing back down. You weren't eager to use your wind glider just yet. The hike is pleasant but you keep your eyes peeled for anything that can serve as a clue.

Eventually, you get to a small village-like area, it's nearly abandoned judging by the lack of, well, anyone. You do freeze at the sight of Morax's Statue of the Seven.

The only question that runs through your mind is should you touch it?

On one hand you would get the geo element and just more power in general. On the other hand that would basically summon Zhongli to your area and you weren't ready for round 2 with a Archon.

The conclusion you arrive at is that you'll wait till you're injuried to touch it. At least that way you can test if you're able to be healed by it.

Making sure to keep a safe distance from the statue to avoid triggering it, you're about to continue your journey when you notice something. A book on a flat rock with the title 'Tracking and Hunting - a guide for the new and experienced'.

Was this not the book you were trying to find yesterday? What luck, you could use this to track the treasure hoarders with more effiency! Grabbing it you flip to the first page but are startled by a yell.

"Hey! Apologies for the intrusion but that book is mine for the time being."

Xingqiu and Chongyun run up to you as you hold the book to your chest. The pale blue exorcist is too busy calming himself down from the jog to pay much attention to Xingqiu reaching for the book with a polite smile.

How fake.

"Is it really? I simply saw this book laying on this rock, all abandoned. If you can't respect a book then you definitely shouldn't have checked it out."

Xingqiu grits his teeth and his polite smile strains in his effort to keep his annoyance in check. "Thank you for the advise, I'll be sure to keep better track of my belongings."

It seems Xingqiu is putting up his act due to his reputation as the second son of the Feiyun Commerce Guild. You need him to break character so that you can recruit him to help you find Yiran. He's all about justice and chivalry after all.

"I'll be happy to return this book if you- wait what the hell is that?" Your tone goes from mocking to confusion as Xingqiu steps closer letting you view him. The change in your tone brings Xingqiu and Chongyuns attention to you.

You stare at Xingqiu's hair with increadibility that slowly morphs into laughter. Your laughter grows as Xingqiu inquires what you're laughing so hard about.

"What the hell is that haircut? It's more uneven than mountains, with more layers than an onion with some strands poking up like a porcupine. If you paid someone for this haircut then get your money back!"

You hold the book to your stomach as you double over in hysterics. Chongyun keeps a palm over his mouth as he struggles to contain his chuckles. Xingqiu's calm facade seems to crack with each ring of your laughter and your next words seem to break him.

"I don't know how much self-confidence you have to have, to go around with that hair, but I need some! Oh god, what are those bangs?!"

Chongyun turns away as he trembles with laughter that slips through his fingers. Xingqiu crosses his arms in annoyance as he begins his own tirade.

"What kind of person are you? Who begins to mock the person they are basically stealing from? Do you have no chivalry?! What gives you the confidence to give someone else shit for their style when you can't even choose one?! A Liyue style glider with Inazuma style clothing is terrible combination, only able to be worn by a simpleton like you!"

He pants harshly while pointing at you as the laughter dies down. Chongyun looks at his friend in some shock and seems to struggle in whether to intervine or not. You stand up with a smug grin and lean closer to the Guhua swordsman.

"Still not as bad as the bowlcut you're sporting."

Xingqiu groans loudly at your words and lays his palm open. "Let's just stop this stupid conversation. Return my book now."

"Like I said, I need it so either help me out or let me keep it."

"Return my book or else." Xingqiu's hands clench tightly and Chongyun places a hand on his shoulder. He ignores it.

"I'm not returning it unless you make a choice between the options I presented."

A sacrifical sword is quickly pointed at your neck as Xingqiu stares at you.

"Give it back or you'll know my sword." The familair line makes you smile happily as you place the book on his outstretched hand. "Sure!"

"It's just a shame that I'll have less resources to track down those treasure hoarders. I hope I can find them in time..." You speak outloud as you pass them making Chongyun glance back at you. Xingqiu is still gripping his sword without looking at you.

"Wait, please! Can you explain why you are tracking down the treasure hoarders?" Chongyun finally takes the initiative and calls out to you.

Smiling pleasantly you turn to Chongyun and speak while being well aware of Xingqiu resisting the urge to look at you.

"I'd be happy to. Last night treasure hoarders swept through the lower level docks in Liyue and kidnapped some people. That includes my commissioners daughter, Yiran. The cart they are driving must be following this path but I know it'll split at some point. That's why I wanted the book to help me track the hoarders down."

Chongyun's face returns to his usual frosty look. "I understand why you were in such dire need of the book. I would like to help you. My name is Chongyun and I'm a exorcist. I track down ghosts and evil spirits so perhaps my experience can help you."

"That would be a great, thank you so much! I'm Y/N and feel free to speak comfortably."

One acolyte joined, now you only need the other. But if Xingqiu is being too stubborn to help you then you're better off leaving him-

Your train of thought is cut off by the book being thrusted into your arms as Xingqiu walks toward the stairs leading further down the path. You and Chongyun send Xinqui a confused look at his sudden actions.

"What are you two doing gawking at me like that? We're wasting time standing around like this."

A huff of laughter leaves you at his words and you motion Chongyun to follow along as you begin to follow Xingqiu.

"Nice to see that his highness is willing to set aside time in his busy reading schedule to help out with this case."

"I'm a purser of chivalry and justice first and foremost. It seems you do know that I'm related to the Feiyun Commerce Guild. You've got guts to treat me in such a unabashed manner."

"What's the Feiyun Commerce Guild? Some small family business? You didn't really expect me to recognize you immediately right? I mean I'm just a traveler who recently arrived."

Xingqiu seems a bit embarrassed at how he psyched himself into revealing himself. The mockingly kind tone you use only enhances it.

"Can you two please stop arguing? The treasure hoarders will hear you both and run away before either of realize at this point."

Chongyun's calm demeanor and words remind you of your original mission. Now that you recruited the useful acolytes, it's best you don't get too distracted.

"Chongyun is right, why don't you tell me your name bowlcut?"

"My name is Xingqiu and I'm the second son of the Feiyun Commerce Guild. A great displeasure to meet you Y/N." He scowls as he speaks but there's no real bite to his words.

"Nice to meet you too bowlcut. While I read the important sections on your book, why don't I hand you the notes from the original comission? Are you intrested in reading it too Chongyun?"

"No, my main focus is on exorcisim. I'll just keep watch of you both while you read and walk."

Nodding you hand the notes to the curious Xingqiu and search through the book as Chongyun guides you both down the staircase. The treasure hoarders must have lost time going down this steep staircase without crashing the cart.

Finishing it rather quickly due to your previous knowledge on the subject, you spot two Milileth guards on the right. They might have seen something suspicious! Tapping Chongyun's shoulder you point at the soldiers.

"Let's ask them if they saw anything, a cart being driven must have caught some attention."

He nods and stops Xingqiu from walking off, Xingqiu only waves you both away as he stands in place. Being careful not to touch and trigger Chongyuns yang enegry you walk with him to the guards.

"Hello, we were wondering if you saw any carts passing by from the Harbor. If there was too many then were there any that looked particularly suspicious?"

Only one guard answers you as the second is too busy relaxing at the table. "We do a routine inspection on everyone that passes through. If any of them were suspicous we would have escorted them to the city."

"So who was watching over whenever you escorted a suspicous person/group back to the city?" You ask in slight disbelief.

The guard goes quiet as if contemplating on what to say... You aren't sure whether to laugh or sigh. The second guard is dragged over by the first guard.

"Oh are you both here for a face reading? The blue one has some striking eyes which indicates a strong spirit but the other one is a bit harder. That mask makes it difficult but I can tell that you have a, what's the nice way to say it? A rather plain but ordinary face, you can think of it as good thing if you think about how easy it is to change it to something more interesting."

Your expression drops in unison with Chongyuns at his words. You had a feeling Liyue's guards weren't the best but this was even more pathetic than you thought. It's clear this guy was slacking off during his whole shift.

"We don't want a face reading so don't expect us to pay for your crappy words. We just wanted to know if you saw any suspicous carts passing by."

"Oh well I kind of left for some tea at the Emerald Maple Inn on the left. A older lady passed by me and stayed by the roadside during that time so I suppose you're better off asking her."

Chongyun presses a palm to his face at the second-hand embarrassment. The only thing that's stopping you from slugging this incompetent soldier is Yiran and the fact it's a nice sunny day.

"Thanks for the doing less then the bare minimum. We'll be on our way now." You say in a polite voice and push Chongyun back to Xinqui while ignoring the offended man.

"That was so embarrassing. A traveler like you who is new to Liyue should not have had to see such a... lazy soldier." He puts the truth very kindly before holding a hand to his head as he steadies his breathing.

You get back to Xingqiu and explain what happened. He managed to look even more disappointed than Chongyun and the three of you climb the left hill to the Inn. Xingqiu had already finished reading and you swapped the reading material to their original owners.

Tables are set up outside the Inn and one of them has a elderly lady drinking tea at one of them. Walking up to her, you smile kindly as the guys hang back to question the owner of the Inn.

"Hello ma'am, around last night or early this morning, did you go down by the road? If so did you notice a strange cart passing by?"

"In fact I did, I told one of the guards when he came back but he didn't take it very seriously... Well a few people were driving a cart loudly talking about meeting a group at the fork in Guili Plains. I'm afraid that's all I know."

...Was the book even necessary now? What kind of cliche convient villain move is speaking about your evil plans out-loud? There goes all the compliments you gave them for making smart choices. But they did choose the one time when no guards were present. Does that cancel out their stupidity or show just how lucky they are?

"Thank you so much for the information. I'll get going now and use it wisely." The old woman nods at your polite dismissal and rejoin the disastified duo who brighten up at the information you obtained. Until a young boy comes out from the Inn asking.

"Is that the cough adventurer with the medicine? cough"

That sounded familiar, too familiar to be a coincidence. The old woman attends to the boy's coughing fit as you look through your handbook.

Straight to the Heart - Qingxin must be freshly picked to be made into effective medicine. Pick it off the mountain and get it to the caretaker within the time limit. Enemies may be in the area.

Yup, the area where the comission takes place is your exact location. This was your commission to deal with.

Turning back to Xingqiu and Chongyun who are patiently waiting for you, you explain the situation. They agree to seperate from you and continue the path to Guili Plains while you finish the commission. Promising to catch up with them soon you wave and Xingqiu shoots you one last remark.

"Oh and be careful when climbing! Geovishap hatchlings have a tendency to push off unlucky climbers!"

...He was joking right?

With a mental note to get him back for that, you turn back to the old woman and show her the commission paper.

"Hello again, before I leave to continue my journey I would like to get that pesky qingxin for you first."

She smiles relieved and brings you near the back of the Inn. Pointing upward to a mountain that was more of a rocky hill, she tells you of a qingxin that grows there.

After she leaves to prepare the rest of medicine, you begin climbing. Your climbing skills are rusty so you slide down at the worst times but you manage to pick up on your old skills relatively quickly.

So focused on climbing, the wind brushing against your cheek goes unnoticed until a leaf hits you. Moving it away leads you to looking at the gorgous scenary of Liyue.

The clear water of Luhua Pool. The mountains dotted with trees and grass. And even the areas with ruins make for a picturesque view. In the distance you can see the Wangshu Inn. You really hope Xiao never catches wind of you or else you'll constantly be monitored.

Finally arriving at the top, you sit down and rest your body. You aren't aching but you weren't about to pick the flower and jump off. Planning was still needed to avoid a broken bone.

Should you use the wind glider or speed climb down this hunk of rock?

The wind seems to pick up as the pebbles are thrown off the rock you're on. That was not a good sign for a beginner like you. Seems speed climbing it is!

Mapping out a route that would have you alternating between sliding and climbing you double checked it before standing up. The moment you pick the qingxin from it's place that you remember that the time limit for this comission is 30 seconds unless you defeat an enemy.

Scrambling you hurry down while mentally counting down the seconds. That's probably why you didn't notice the geo slime that you kicked off the mountain in your rush.

It's only after handing the qingxin just in time to the old woman that you notice how squishy your boot is.

You end up leaving back to the path with a bag of rewards from completing the commission and some slime concentrate in your bag. There's a clear crunch of the leaves as you walk the path quickly in hopes of catching up to the duo.

You pass by the wilderness and animals as you keep jogging. There's a small stone bridge and you spot the different shades of blue hair moving rather quickly. Getting closer you see the new third indivual.

A black figure with glowing red undertones dives between the sword and claymore clashing against the sacrifical knife. The pyro delusions and maroon mask makes it clear that the fatui agent isn't going to relent easily.

Summoning your sickle, you run into the fray as the agent dissapears leaving a red silloutte behind.

"I didn't arrive too late right?" Xingqiu blocks a strike and Chongyun uses his skill to apply cryo to the area.

"Right on time actually. Quite suprising for someone like you." Superconduct heightens your damage as your sickle slices the agent's arm with electro.

"Ha ha. On the other hand when is your other earing arriving? I believe it's long overdue." Xingqiu's raincutter is summoned making reactions fly around.

Frozen, superconduct, electro-charged, and some shatters keep the agent from barely moving.

"For the last time, will you both stop fighting and focus fully on the fight?" Chongyun's cold clear voice seems to momentarily redirect your attention to the fight. It's only now that you can actually look at the state of the Fatui agent.

A mask half frozen with chunks of it biting into his skin, the blood stains the ice red and the eye's flicker. His arm and legs seem to jerk at random times, most likely from the electro-charged reaction still running in his system. With multiple slash marks and grave wounds that breeched his suit into his skin. It's the hand barely hanging to his wrist that bleeds the most.

This was less of a fight and more of one sided beat down. Compared to when you and Heizou fought those Fatui skirmishers this was a breeze. Made sense but it still felt nice to see some progress in your own strength.

The bone is visble as the blood continues to spurt out of the wound as the agent staggers. None of you move as he sways before falling backword onto a huge chunk of leftover ice. It stabs his stomach letting you see the now pink tip of the ice that went through him.

The force also wretched the hand off his wrist making it land with a sickening splat. Lucky as always, it lands at your feet. Blood drips down from your sickle onto the decapitated hand making you sheathe it back into nothingness.

Looking back to the freeze team, their clothes have much more blood but they ignore it and walk past the body. With them as your guidance, you follow them and grip the agent's sacrificial knife in your hand before quickly stuffing it into your bag.

"So how did that fight even begin? I never saw any mention of the Fatui being involved with the kidnapping."

The way you easily move on to a conversation is comical. You had just committed a joint murder with a duo that you met a mere hour ago and yet you don't feel distraught. Not like the first time you killed in Teyvat. It seems you're starting to adapt to Teyvat's laws. Would you ever fully adapt to it's religious beliefs about the 'creator'?

"The agent jumped at us yelling something about paying back a debt due. But judging how suprised he was when he saw us, he must have believed we were someone else." Chongyun explains thoughtfully.

Xingqiu presses a hand over his mouth seeming to ponder something.

"Do you think the Fatui agent met with the treasure hoarders at the fork? Since the hoarders cart were the only suspicious people going through, it would make sense that they would be meeting the Fatui."

"Then if you're right, something must have gone wrong at the meetup. Damn I wish he didn't die, we could have questioned him."

Depending on the meetup, chasing after the treasure hoarders would be useless if they gave Yurin and the rest of the captives to the Fatui.

"We would have gone easier on the agent if we knew you could control electro. I don't see any vision on you so how do you control the elements? Are you similair to a cartain golden haired traveler?"

"Let's just say it's an ability I gained after an upgrade. It's not a delusion though so forget that kind of possibility."

Xingqiu shoots you a skeptical look at the nonchalant way you dismissed his questions. Chongyun, ever as guilable nods in understanding before asking his own question.

"Did that upgrade also give you your perfect spirit?"

Being careful not to trip on a abandoned wagon, you glance questionably at Chongyun.

"I have no idea what that means. I've heard of yin and yang energies but I'm not well versed in it."

He places a finger to his chin as he struggles to explain the concept to you.

"A perfect spirit is something of a legend. Everyone has a mix of yang and yin that can changes depending on the day, mood, constiution and other factors. I'm one of the few that has a pure yang spirit that I struggle everyday to control. But your spirit is perfectly balanced and even during the fight it didn't waver. It's not just perfect, it's also similair to a void. It feeds on the surrounding energies and stabilizes them. Usually I would spend half an hour after a battle to calm down but with you here I had no need to."

Was that a perk of being the creator? If so that can be pretty neat but on the other hand it also makes you terribly shady. Under a better circumstance you could use it as proof of you being the creator. It really is a shame.

"When I studied the books in my families library, it said that only the creator could have such a spirit..." Of course you had to be right.

The red scrapes that you earned from the fight seemed to grab the attention of both vision holders. To them, it's proof that you aren't the creator and to you, it's proof that no matter what kind of evidence you gather, your blood will always disprove it.

"All those little things about you don't seem to be adding up Y/N. The electro, the vague backstory, the strange aura that surronds you, the so-called perfect spirit and that mask aren't making you any less questionable."

Xingqiu's voice slips through the cracks created by Chongyun in your identity. The crushing of dirt stops as Chongyun and Xingqiu block your way.

"The creator is not one to be messed with or imitated. Evil spirits and demons are the only ones filthy enough to do so. There's a large chance you've been possessed by one. Allow us to purge you, I can promise that in death you'll be freed."

His prototype archaic claymore is summoned in his hands, he always had a one track mind when it came to exorcisim after all. Xingqiu stays behind but the sacrifial sword in his hands is clearly visible.

The day had been going so well too.

"I think you both are getting ahead of yourselves." The smooth words only make them freeze and glare at you.

"I mean neither of you even gave me a chance to speak! Chongyun do you really belive that the creator is only desecrated by evil spirits and demons? I mean just think of Xinyan's concerts, many of those people were just simply terrible."

His grip on his weapon is firm but he nods his head solemly.

"I'm well aware of that but I earnestly believe that you're possessed. Someone like you who accepted a comission to save a little girl isn't one who I would suspect to be a sacrilegious person."

"And even if you are simply a horrible person that finds enjoyment in mocking the creator in this fashion, I could deal with you instead." Xingqiu leers closer as he expertly twirls his sword.

"Defending chivalry and spreading justice is my passion after all." The kind smile on his face mocks you.

Taking out your weapon would only agrivate the situation and confirm their belief. Instead you bow to them and speak curteously.

"As the situation has degraded this badly, I may as well reintroduce myself truthfully. I'm Y/N, an oracle for the creator. My main purpose is to investigate acolytes and the citizens faith simultaneously. The creators spirit envelops me like this to protect me and help me protect others."

Your words catch them both off-guard. Xingqiu double downs on his stance as Chongyun takes a step back.

"I was ordered to be as vague as possible which makes me very suspicious but I have to be careful in what I say. The perfect spirit sitaution may be new to me but there's a very logical explanation."

"And what may that be? If it's not satisfactory I will purge you as soon as possible seeing as you must be possessed by a demon of unknown caliber."

"Think back to when the creater controlls you, does your yang enegry ever get out of control?"

"Of course not, the creators spirit inhibits us and allows us to access blessings that belong to them."

"Then why can't I, who is constantly connected to the creator access those blessings?"

"Thats-!" Chongyun bits his lip as he looks away clearly conflicted.

"The creator is all powerful! Do you think that their perfect spirit isn't strong enough to completely overpower mine?"

Chongyun loses his grip on his claymore and it's dissapears into the air. He's far too anguished between what he knows is a fact and what his own feelings tell him. Too easy, easy to the point where Xingqiu steps in.

"That's a nice runaround and although I can't comment on this perfect spirit conversation as I have not been allowed to read those books yet. I believe it's your identity as a oracle that is the most questionable."

"I know, a clever and eloquent man like yourself would not be so easily swayed by a charlatan like me."

"Cut the crap and show me whatever proof you have. Or is your hands as empty as your skull?"

Ignoring his words, you send a mental thank you to Ayato and display the fan. It would be useless to use in convincing Chongyun but Xingqiu would know due to his high-standing.

Just as you suspected Xingqiu's eyes widen for a second before he moves closer to examine the fan.

"It's the real deal... This texture is one only used in Inazuma for those close to the Electro Archon." His fingers brush against the fabric of the fan before he pulls away with a softening scowl. "I suppose you weren't lying if you managed to get this fan. The Kamisato Commissioner is said to be a elusive man."

Chongyun looks at the fan and Xingqiu in confusion before sighing and giving up on understanding the conversation.

"If that quells all remaining doubts then lets get going. We wasted a lot of precious time." Quickly you walk past them and smile at the sounds of their footsteps following you.

Putting the fan back into the safety of the bag you remember how thankful you are for meeting Ayato. At least with proving yourself to him, you managed to get such a useful tool. It's only fair to milk it for all it's worth.

The fork comes into view and your breath catches in your throat.

The lush grass was crushed under a mix of debris and blood. Crimson stained and dripped down the stone hedge as pieces of dirty clothing drifted in the area. The huge wreckage of a smashed up transportation vehicle was the main center piece.

Aside from the dead bodies littering the area.

Bodies of treasure hoarders with elemental wounds were the most abundant. A few Fatui skirmishers with makeshift reaction and weapon wounds laid in the clearing. The war-machines were deactivated as the bodies rot inside.

Taking steps forward to the middle of the wreckage, it's a single item that installs fear.

A pink flower pin lays innocently on the ground. The blood and dirt on it seems to glisten with malice as the sun reaches it's peak in the sky.

It's finally out!!! OMG it's been so long since I last posted. Work's been burying me, every weekend is a birthday/event/funeral, plus the fall semester is going to start soon. Not to mention Fontaine is almost here and I didn't even finish a single area of Sumeru. Someone stop time, I need sleep. I hope I gave reasonable explanations for the stories behind the commissions. You know the first commission completed with the Qingxin? If you climb the mountain I described, you will find a Qingxin. I know this chapter may be a bit boring since it focused on the kidnapping but I hope Xingqiu and Chongyun were written well enough. I don't think they have a romantic relationship like many fans describe. Then again, I don't like shipping in general. I gave Xingqiu a similair dynamic to Ayato but there is difference. Ayato is more of a 'pretend to be formal while insulting' meanwhile Xinqui is more juvinele with 'I feel annoyed by your presence and the fact I like it is even worse'. Both are fun but if something else works better with Xingqiu's personality please let me know! Time for me to actually finish exploring the summer event and go to even more activites I don't want to attend T-T.
