You’ve never felt loved by your family before.

Born a twin but feeling more like a shadow, you’ve watched your younger brother, Nolan, receive all the love and praise you were denied. But no matter how unkind you are to him, Nolan’s loyalty and kindness towards you remains unwavering. It’s as if there’s a bond pulling you back everytime you think of leaving it all behind.

Now a mysterious illness has swept through Valorian Kingdom’s royal court, leaving many nobles, including the king at death’s door. The Oracle’s prophecy offers a single hope: the Crown Prince must gather five lost souls to join him in a dangerous journey towards Coven’s Swamp, an ominous and foreboding area hidden deep within the mystical forest.

You are chosen to be one of those five.

As you venture deep into the forest, the journey will push you to the limits of courage and loyalty, forcing you to question everything you believe about family and love. This might not just be a journey to save the day, but a journey towards self-discovery for you and everyone in your group. So when the journey ends, will there be anything left of the person who first stepped into the darkness? 

Customize your MC! Change your appearance and control your personality. MC starts out as female, but there will be transition options.

Grow a relationship with your twin! Choose to either continue being unkind to your twin brother or getting to know him instead. Your MC's relationship with him may affect some major events.

Develop relationships! There are six romanceable characters - 3 male, 2 gender selectable, and 1 non-binary. Or you can avoid romance and keep it all platonic.

Learn and improve your skills! With the option to choose to focus on offensive or defensive magic, you can learn and improve your skills to become better at what you do.

Find yourself! Journey through the mystical forest to not only find a cure, but to self-discovery. There are plenty of secrets to learn about that may or may not change the way you think and feel.

More to be added…

Below are the six romanceable characters in this story. You can choose to flirt with everyone, but at one point, you'll have to decide on one. Also keep in mind that there are other important characters as well that are not listed here.

Ver/Vera Forrest | Gender Selectable | 21

Playful and energetic with golden-retriever-like energy, V is always ready for adventure. They never fail to be there for you when you need someone to rant to, or a shoulder to lean on. Their cleverness and sneakiness keeps them out of most trouble due to the way they were raised. And it’s exactly how they are raised that has made them hide their burden under their positive enthusiasm.

You are best friends, so why don’t you know any of their secrets? 

Oliver Astoran | he/him | 21

With a cold demeanor, Oliver holds a strong desire to protect the people he cares about, especially those whose kindness is exploited. Your unkind treatment towards your brother causes him to despise you. You are always able to press on the right buttons to rile each other up. He shows a strong sense of determination that marks his mental and physical strength. But perhaps there’s something more to the reason behind his behavior than what the eye sees.

Will you ever be able to see him in a different light, or will it just be fighting, fighting and more fighting?

Ethos Van Winston | he/him | 22

Burdened by the responsibility of being heir to the throne, Ethos is reserved, guarded, and serious. As a child, he was once carefree and one of your closest friends. But after an incident that left unspoken, lingering tension between you two, he now elicits a melancholic presence. His warm side is hidden away somewhere, and you wonder if there was more than just the incident that made him change.

You weren’t the reason he changed… right?

Theodore Eaves | he/him | 24

From a young age, Theodore’s life has been defined by duty and training. He’s mature for his age and has a tendency to act like an older brother to you and the group. He’s well disciplined and stoic, rarely having time to express vulnerability. His focus on duty has left him oblivious to romantic interest, despite his admired reputation due to his looks and status. His obliviousness goes further though, for reasons that he himself hasn’t fully discovered and understood.

Will you ever get to see a vulnerable side of him, instead of just that brotherly figure?

Mattie | they/them | 19

Curious as ever, Mattie often gets themselves into trouble. But with their charming personality and resourcefulness, they’re able to get themselves out of trouble. They are playful, enjoying the work of teasing others and instigating drama to get chaotic, and hopefully flustered, reactions. Their skills and knowledge about the forest have proven him to be a good asset, but there is more to them than what meets the eye.

For someone who is so bright and playful, they can’t surely have anything to hide, right?

Yaran/Yara | Gender Selectable | 22

Nobody is sure they know who Y is. They seem ambitious, cunning, and deceiving; doing risky things to achieve their own goals at the cost of someone else’s pain. They are unpredictable, popping in and out of your group - sometimes being a guide, but other times hindering progress. Despite their ambiguity, they are charismatic and mysterious enough to leave your group intrigued. All there is to do now is truly learn who they are and what they have hidden inside.

Who is Y and can you trust them with anything, especially your life?

FOUND A TYPO/BUG? | PATREON | PUBLIC BONUS CONTENT | DISCORD | PLAYLIST | PINTEREST | PROGRESS UPDATES | SNEAK PEEKS | SNIPPETS

In the underworld kingdom, where demons fight for survival against the abyssal monsters, you are just an Oracle. In the distant past the Oracles were at the top of the demonic hierarchy, but those golden days are long gone. You did what you were most afraid to do and now sit under arrest in the royal palace.

When the Abyss sends you a vision of a terrible disaster that will happen in the future, you make an inevitable “deal” with the Sovereign to try to change the future and improve your abilities, not only to become stronger and learn more about the coming disaster, but also in an attempt to achieve mind stability. 

However, what has been happening to you since you received the vision makes you think that you are already slowly but surely losing your mind. 

Will you be able to maintain your sanity and help others protect the kingdom, or will you become just another name in the long list of Oracles gone mad?

This is a free to play interactive fantasy story with a heavy focus on friendship and romance (with strangers to lovers or enemies dynamic). The story is rated 18+. Content warnings: violence, death, loss of sanity, trauma, avoidable sexually suggestive/sexual content, and more (the full list is in the demo).

Customize your Oracle: pronouns, traits, and appearance. Choose your full ✨ demonic form. ✨

Build friendship or romance with five different characters. (Allo and ace routes available.)

Learn more about the Oracles’ past and what truly drove their royal clan into ruin. Uncover the secrets of your abilities. Chat with the Abyss?

Decide what you do for fun. Do you sing, dance, paint, play a musical instrument, or write? 

What you did cannot be undone. Your reputation forever ruined, how will you handle the public’s new attitude toward you? 

Maintain your sanity. Depending on your choices, you’ll either move closer to loss of control and madness or further away from it.

Decide what fate awaits you. You’ll have to make an important decision that will open two very different paths for you, influence the plot’s progression, and your relationships.

Will the victory be sweet?

✨ Vezriel, The Sovereign (m / f)

Vezriel seems a perfect ruler: they’re smart, calm, patient, know moderation, and always put demons’ well-being first. But you’re not so naive as to think this is their real face—many secrets lurk under the golden shell of the nobility. You never thought of meeting them in the past, but now spending some time with them is inevitable. Perhaps you will find out what lies beneath their mask?

They have dark brown skin, long curly black hair, and black eyes with pale white flecks. Tall and of strong build, Vezriel cuts a robust but elegant figure, usually dressed in beautiful robes.

✨ Osara / Osaron, The Heir (f / m)

Vezriel’s only child and heir, O is their Chief Counselor, and they have a consistently good reputation. Their character reminds of their parent, though O is much more cold and reticent. Nothing seems to touch or shake their emotions, despite the known long list of ex-lovers. You don’t need their attention, but the circumstances have put you right under it. What will you make of this opportunity?

They have warm brown skin, long wavy black hair, and silver, almost white eyes. O is tall and strong, their expression impassive most of the time, which makes them rather intimidating and unapproachable to some demons.

✨ Lazarus / Lazaris, the General (m / f)

L rose from the bottom of the ladder and made a name for themselves, though judging by old rumors, their clean background wasn’t always so clean. They’re charismatic and popular but keep others at a distance—everyone except their friends… and you. L treats you especially well, but you’re not foolish enough to blindly play their game. What do they want from you?

They have beige skin, short/medium-length wavy blond hair, and golden eyes. Many small and big scars can be seen on their hands. L is tall and has a strong build. Despite their high station, they seem friendly and laid-back.

✨ Ashmedai, the Royal Healer (f / m)

Ashmedai was sent to observe your condition after the incident and to help you with mind stability if needed. They performed their duties without showing any displeasure or impatience no matter how you behaved. Ash is secretive and reserved, and you guess their restrained temper is connected to the dark rumors surrounding them. Will they open up to you?

They have pale skin, long straight black hair, and bright red eyes. A large scar runs on the left side of their face, from their forehead along their eye and to their chin. Ash is tall and slender.

✨ Azarias / Azaria, the Royal Musician (m / f)

Ash’s younger sibling, Az somewhat resembles them in appearance, but their characters couldn’t be more different. Az is bold, humorous, and fickle. They know everyone—and everything about everyone—and enjoy a special favor from the Sovereign, which has allowed them to retain their place in the royal palace for many years. You’re concerned about their peculiar attention to you because there’s no reason for it—you two have never met before. Or… is there a reason after all?

They have pale skin, long white hair, and black eyes with narrow silver pupils. A tattoo of a snake with flowers curves around their neck. Az is tall and lean.

Welcome to Beast's Party!

Translations may not always capture the exact nuances or tone of the original text. Expect grammatical errors and inaccuracies.

One week left until the thank-you party for Emma.

Yves: "This is bad."

Leon: "Real bad."

Yves: "We've already picked out the desserts, booked the orchestra—even the entertainment is all set."

Leon: "The tailor has delivered Emma's dress, and we've already sent out invites to our close friends."

Yves: "Yet somehow, I've got this weird feeling."

Leon: "Because it's boring. It's just too normal. It's bland."

Yves: "Maybe so, but Emma would probably be happy with it."

Leon: "But is normal really good enough? Is our gratitude only worth that much?"

Yves: "Ugh..."

???: "How about a divine blessing for such troubled gentlemen?"

Yves: "Uwaaahhh!?"

Azel: "My apologies. I didn't think you'd be surprised enough to jump off the sofa."

Silvio: "Yo, you guys are stressing over some pretty trivial stuff."

Leon: "You're joining in, so does that mean you're going to help us out?"

Azel: "Of course. Guiding troubled souls is what a god does, after all."

Silvio: "Got a price list?"

Azel: "Right here."

Yves: "You're charging us for this?!"

Azel: "Of course. Since you're princes, I'd recommend the premium plan."

Leon: "Maybe relying on a god isn't a bad idea. Yves and I have been racking our brains and still haven't gotten anywhere."

Yves: "Leon, look closely! These are rip-off prices!"

Azel: "They're not. It's a fair rate. I have the means to solve your problems."

Azel: "You can make Emma even happier just by throwing money at me."

Silvio: "Where's that confidence coming from?"

Leon: "Then I'll go with this God's Direct Premium Divine Oracle Plan."

Azel: "Leon, you're a most excellent customer. I can tell—we're going to be great friends."

Silvio: "Total sucker move."

Azel: "Exactly. I mean, thank you for your patronage."

Azel: "Now, let's get serious."

Azel: "You wanted to add some flair to what felt like a plain, boring party, right?"

Yves: "But we also don't want to go full-crazy like Clavis."

Azel: "Of course. Emma doesn't strike me as the type to have a pitfall trap fetish. So, here's my proposal—"

Silvio: "..........."

Leon: "Not bad, huh?"

Yves: "We're pretty much done. Honestly, I think it turned out pretty great."

Azel: "Truly wonderful. I'm embarrassed to say I didn't know you gentlemen very well, but now I see Rhodolite has capable princes—not just easy marks to be taken advantage of. I'm impressed."

Silvio: "Are ya guys stupid?"

Leon: "What?"

Silvio: "It's just a party."

Leon: "An important party to express our gratitude to Emma."

Silvio: "This ain't even a party anymore."

Leon: "How so?"

Silvio: "Like that thing over there. What even is that?"

Leon: "That's the High-Speed Jet Trolley Coaster. It races along tracks laid on the ground at breakneck speed."

Leon: "Someone flew off during the test run, but a little chaos is just part of the fun, right?"

Yves: "Do you even know the meaning of limits!?"

Silvio: "Exactly. And what about that thing?"

Yves: "That's the Labyrinth of Beauty—you can't leave until you've acquired a fashion sense."

Yves: "Once you're in, you're not getting out until you put together a full outfit I approve of."

Silvio: "Yeah, no thanks. What about that one?"

Azel: "That's the Fortune Teller's Pavilion. I thought I'd open a little pop-up shop."

Silvio: "Don't just casually butt in! Also, you got the digits wrong on the price."

Silvio: "You guys seriously took this divine con artist's advice to heart?"

Yves: "I thought it was a great idea."

Leon: "Same here. I mean, when else would we get the chance to build a prince-themed amusement park just for Emma?"

Silvio: "Something's not right. This whole idea's way too cheerful for a shut-in like him."

Azel: "Ouch. That was a deeply hurtful remark—I'm entitled to emotional damages."

Silvio: "Cut the crap. I know you're hiding something. You can't fool me."

Azel: "........"

Azel: "Fufu."

Leon: "Wait, so you were up to something?"

Yves: "After scamming us that badly!?"

Azel: "Now, now, let's not get dramatic."

Azel: "You followed my advice and created a theme park. You've arranged a grand surprise for Emma."

Azel: "No one's lost anything. Everyone's a winner."

Azel: "Now then, let's give it a test run. After all, we can't risk anything happening to Emma."

Silvio: "………"

Azel: "Oh my, Prince Silvio, are you interested in riding the coaster?"

Silvio: "I never said that."

Azel: "Leon, it looks like we have a customer."

Leon: "Got it, this way, please."

Silvio: "I SAID I'M NOT INTERESTED! Hey, stop grabbing me from both sides!"

Silvio: "You two are way stronger than you look!"

Yves: "Prince Silvio is being dragged away."

Leon: "Don't worry. I'll ride with you."

Silvio: "Didn't you say someone got thrown off during the test run?!"

Leon: "He didn't die, so it's fine."

Silvio: "You know, you seem normal, but you're actually kind of crazy."

Azel: "Alright, you two, are you ready? Safety bars secured nice and tight?"

Silvio: "Wait, you're coming too."

Azel: "I'll pass. Yves said he'd get lonely waiting by himself."

Yves: "I never said that!"

Azel: "Come on, Yves. Let's smile and wave goodbye."

Azel: "Well then, off you go on a thrilling and heart-pounding journey~!"

Yves: "B-Bye?"

Silvio: "Stop waving like that—it's pissing me off! HEY, ARE WE EVEN SURE THIS THING'S SAFE?!"

Leon: "Haha! Now, this is the kind of speed I'm talking about!"

Silvio: "This is dangerously fast!! It's downright criminal!!"

Yves: "They disappeared in a flash. You really think they'll make it back in one piece?"

Azel: "If fortune smiles on them, they just might."

Yves: "Don't say ominous things like that!"

Azel: "By the way, Yves, what other attractions are there?"

Yves: "Yeah, um, over there is my cute little brother Licht's dojo."

Yves: "Then there's an adults-only tavern, courtesy of Jin. And that brightly colored, giant tent shaped like a clay idol is—wait, did that always exist?"

Yves: "Don't tell me—Clavis?"

Azel: "Let's not get too close."

Azel: "Still, I'm impressed you managed to build all this in such a short time."

Yves: "Well, all the brothers pitched in."

Azel: "You really are a close-knit bunch."

Azel: "By the way, who provided the most funding for this theme park?"

Yves: "Funding…?"

Silvio: "*pant, pant* Hey, you idiots—don't just stand around chatting!"

Azel: "Oh, back already? That was quick."

Leon: "It's a high-speed jet trolley, after all. This time, no one flew off."

Silvio: "That's because I held on for dear life! And don't you dare put that woman in this death trap!"

Leon: "It'll be fine if I act as the safety lock."

Silvio: "No, it won't, you absolute dumbass!"

Leon: "Relax, I was kidding."

Silvio: "You suck at joking, you know that?"

Azel: "Ah, Prince Silvio. Your beautiful hair is all tousled."

Azel: "Good thing I brought a comb—here, let me fix it for you."

Silvio: "Don't think sucking up is gonna save you. I will never forget that you put me on that death ride."

Yves: "Judging by how this went, we'd better double-check the safety of the other attractions as well."

Silvio: "Alright, I'm out. I'm not some bored idiot with time to kill."

Azel: "Now, now, don't be like that. Let's enjoy everything this place has to offer—for Emma's sake, too."

Azel: "Truthfully, I've lived a life completely disconnected from amusements like these, so I'm rather intrigued."

Azel: "For someone like me—who wasn't allowed to enjoy anything beyond books—this place is a dreamland."

Yves: "Now that you mention it, I wasn't really raised in an environment where I was free to play either."

Yves: "Feels kinda weird going all out for fun now that I'm an adult."

Leon: "If that's the case, I'm probably the same. I was too busy trying to study and survive back then."

Azel: "Prince Silvio—you had a pretty rough childhood too, didn't you?"

Silvio: "How the hell do ya know that?"

Azel: "It seems that all of us here might have finally found our way to 'play' thanks to Emma."

Leon: "Can't argue with that."

Yves: "Looks like we've got another reason to be grateful to her."

Azel: "And by doing so, we may also discover who the richest man in Rhodolite truly is…fufu..."

Silvio: "You…"

Silvio: "You really don't miss a thing, huh?"

psephoi: greek divination tiles

a while ago i made this post about astragalomancy, a form of divination using four-sided knucklebones. in that i mentioned another post that my friend fritz had made about psephoi. since then, fritz has deleted his tumblr blog so i decided to repost these tiles he made (with his permission) and their interpretations!

BACKGROUND:

psephoi is a method of using 24 tiles each inscribed with a greek letter (much like norse runes and celtic ogham) and chosen randomly. it wasn't just used for divination, of course, as with astragaloi (which were used as dice), but in this case we will only be considering the divinatory method.

THE TILES:

psephoi tiles can be a number of things: pieces of ceramic, wood, or pieces of paper. you can put them in a cup or bag or whatever and draw blindly, or you can swirl them around in the vessel until one/some fall out.

if you don't feel like making your own or want something quick and easy, check out these tiles fritz drew up!

you could cut them out and just use them as is, or paste them onto pieces of wood/stone/whatever you like!

(btw fritz says y'all can feel free to screenshot and print these out to use)

whether or not you make your own tiles, below is a list of the interpretations for your divinatory usage!

INTERPRETATIONS:

Alpha: “The God [Apollo] says you will do everything successfully.” Your entire project will turn out well and you will meet all your goals. You will have good luck in all your activities, or prosperous business transactions and negotiations.

Beta: “With the help of Tychê, you will have an assistant, the Pythian [Apollo].” You are at a critical point, but if you are fortunate, Apollo the Far-shooter will help you if you call on Him. Even with luck, the God will only assist; ultimate responsibility is yours. “Pythian” refers to Apollo as the God at Delphi (which was in Pytho), one of the most important oracular sites. Therefore the help to be expected might be of a prophetic nature.

Gamma: “Gaia will give you the ripe fruit of your labors.” You will have a successful harvest, or you will reap all your profits from the Earth. The Mother of All will bring your labors to a fruitful conclusion. Gaia will give you your just deserts.

Delta: “In customs inopportune strength is weak.” Ill-timed force will be ineffective; act with precision; timing is everything. Knowing where and when to strike is more important than strength; misapplied ability is disability. Blind conformity to customs is spineless; overly strict adherence to rules is self-defeating. Unreasonable or undue force will defeat itself; a tyrant must fall.

Epsilon: “You desire to see the offspring of righteous marriages.” This is a statement of fact, not a command or prediction. The obvious meaning is that the querant wants children or grandchildren from suitable marriages. However, it can also mean he or she is in love with seeing this, that is, obsessed by the idea. The “rightness” of the marriage admits many interpretations; it could be a terrible marriage if that was fitting and righteous (i.e. deserved). The oracle may also refer to seeds, other than children, sown by the marriage (e.g. family alliances, marrying into wealth or influence). Finally, marriage may be taken metaphorically to refer to any alliance or union.

Zeta: “Flee the very great storm, lest you be disabled in some way.” Don’t make a sea-voyage in bad weather. It is futile to fight the force of the ocean; likewise, bucking the inevitable will weaken you and hinder your progress. Avoid raging storms of any kind; save your energy for when it can be effective. Sometimes flight is wiser than fight.

Eta: “Bright Helios, who watches everything, watches you.” The life-giving Sun will care for you. Helios is an enforcer of oaths and promises, and He knows the deceit in your heart.

Theta: “You have the helping Gods of this path.” The “way” may be a concrete road, a plan of action, a spiritual path, a way of life, etc. In any case, the Gods who oversee this way will help and defend you, so you may go forward with confidence; you are under divine care because you are following your destiny.

Iota: “There is sweat; it excels more than everything.” There will always be hard work; work is never done. Hard work is the surest means of success. When you have lost all other possessions, you still have your labor as an asset. The oracle recommends elbow-grease.

Kappa: “To fight with the waves is difficult; endure, friend.” In time, the force of ocean waves can grind down anything; they can be a metaphor for repetitive, unstoppable processes. It is difficult, dangerous, and painful to try to resist them; the sensible thing to do is to wait until they abate, or if that is impossible, then to endure the inevitable with courage.

Lambda: “The one passing on the left bodes well for everything.” Since the left is traditionally the sinister side, the oracle may mean that an apparently sinister thing or event may be a blessing in disguise. The left is also associated with the unconscious, lunar mind, and so unconscious processes or intuition may signal a favorable outcome. A promising sign comes from an unpromising quarter.

Mu: “It is necessary to labor, but the change will be admirable.” Through toil and distress a change will be made for the better. Hard work will result in a good return.

Nu: “The strife-bearing gift fulfils the oracle.” Something will be given (to you, by you, or from one to another) that brings strife with it; this will discharge the force of the oracle. The import seems to be that this gift will be the answer to the question asked of the oracle. So, for example, if the querant asked when something will happen, the gift is the sign that it’s immanent.

Xi: “There is no fruit to take from a withered shoot.” There is no good to be gained from an angry young man or woman. The frayed end of a good line. Harshness and stinginess will achieve nothing. You can’t get blood from a turnip; you can’t get water from a stone. Don’t polish a turd.

Omicron: “There are no crops to be reaped that were not sown.” What we spread about, comes back to us. What goes around comes around. You must plan ahead in order to achieve anything.

Pi: “Completing many contests, you will seize the crown.” If you persist in your struggles, after many trials you will succeed. Perseverance through adversity.

Rho: “You will go on more easily if you wait a short time.” If you will hold your ground for only a short time, you will be able to proceed (more easily or with greater cooperation). You will go faster by waiting than by going now; on the other hand, delaying too long may provoke reckless action. By standing fast you live recklessly. By remaining where you are, you live life thoughtlessly.

Sigma: “Phoibos [Apollo] speaks plainly, ‘Stay, friend.’” Neither advance nor retreat; wait or hold your ground, as appropriate; the best action is inaction. “Phoibos” refers to Apollo as Bright and Pure, which also characterizes His advice in this oracle.

Tau: “You will have a parting from the companions now around you.” This may be an unwelcome parting from friends or a welcome release from enemies; in either case they are now around you. This may also mean a growing apart or forced separation of a person from his or her family, peers or fellow travelers on the path.

Upsilon: “The affair holds a noble undertaking.” There is some issue to be resolved, or some deed is under consideration; it involves high-mindedness, either in commitment, deed, or professional pursuit. The oracle may tell us that the affair is admirable due to this noble element, or that the situation may guide us to seek the appropriate noble undertaking or profession. The hero’s quest. On the other hand, the oracle may mean that the situation hinders this fine undertaking. Thus you should try to understand the situation: does it demand an excellent undertaking or impede it.

Phi: “Having done something carelessly, you will thereafter blame the Gods.” Take responsibility for your actions (or inactions); don't blame the Gods (or the universe, or fate, or society, or nature) for your own failings. The ancient Greeks said, “Hermes will help you get your wagon unstuck, but only if you push on it.”

Khi: “Succeeding, friend, you will fulfill a golden oracle.” “Golden” may be a metaphor for rich, noble, excellent, etc. This admirable oracle will be fulfilled by you attaining your ends, or a mere chance meeting could constitute the golden event.

Psi: “You have this righteous judgment {Psêphos} from the Gods.” Literally, a psêphos is a stone used for divination, voting, counting, and similar purposes, so this oracle refers to collective judgment rather than individual judgment. This implies that the majority of the Gods concur in this judgment, and that this judgment is appropriate, fair, and righteous, though there is no implication that the result is that desired by the querant.

Omega: “You will have a difficult harvest season, not a useful one.” Concretely, there will be a poor harvest, or autumn will be difficult; the harvest will be too early, before the fruit is ripe. More abstractly, too early grasping of the fruits of your labor (whether voluntary or necessary) will yield a poor return; the rewards will not be suitable for their purpose. Your youth will be rough; you will have to grow up before your time.

I’ve seen a lot of posts about the Batfam wearing the others merch recently

So I would like to add for consideration- the ultimate act of acknowledgment from Tim is him adding a sticker of your hero identity on his skateboard (list based roughly in the order he would have met them)

Prior to becoming Robin his skateboard only had stickers of the Batman, Nightwing, Robin, & Batgirl symbols (either NW Dick + R Jason or both for Dick idk if he would but you can’t tell me Dick’s biggest fan wouldn’t have at least consider it lol)

Then he becomes Robin and he slowly starts adding on to it

Oracle & Huntress get stickers added on super quick after their introductions though at the time he might have needed to custom make Oracle’s- maybe Huntress’s as well?

Spoiler hit him in the face with a brick when they first meet so even though he forgave her pretty quick it still takes him a moment to make/add her sticker on. (How long do vigilantes need to be on the scene before people start making merch, do y’all think?)

Impluse gets added on pretty quickly after Tim meets him. Superboy gets added on a while after their meeting because the two annoyed the HECK out of each other when they first met and Tim’s petty like that.

Tim was a bit suspicious when he first met Cass but AS SOON AS he gets over it he’s adding on a sticker. Like immediately.

While he meet Secret before the rest of YJ I’m not sure those meetings would have led him to making a sticker for her but once she joins the team I think he would.

Wonder Girl, Arrowette, & Empress like Impluse, gets their stickers added on pretty soon on after he meets them.

He later makes a custom one for Slobo.

Ray gets one too but not as quickly as the others & both Ray & Slobo get one quicker than Superboy did, relatively. It makes Superboy fume a bit lol in a way he didn’t with the girls lol.

Every time Red Hood is close to get his sticker added he does something that pushes the time table back lol. Sometimes Jason tried adding his own sticker but the skateboard is never where he can find it when he tries.

He added one for Batwoman, BlueBird, & The Question (Reene) because he thinks they’re cool (+ without even realizing that he also felt a communal pull to do so)

It took a bit of time after the whole “I left Gotham in search of Bruce who was lost in the time-stream” thing for things with Damian to settle. Tim added his Robin randomly without any fanfare and Damian pretended he doesn’t care (but he does obnoxiously brag about it when annoyed by Jason to bother him in return)

Tim was MIA & considered dead when Duke became Signal (if I’m recalling correctly) but Dick tells him about The Skateboard and when Tim comes back Dukes already ready and hands him a Signal symbol sticker. Tim is amused and immediately puts it on. Jason is frustrated.

When he starts working with Sparrow he makes one for her.

Also every time Nightwing changes his suit, a new sticker gets added on which makes everyone complain and say they should get more than one sticker if they’ve had more than one suit/super identity.

Tim responds by adding more Nightwing stickers

[multi-bookworm]

Why does nobody in this universe want to learn Greek like me :( making me sad, and bored, so I've made a list of all THE BENEFITS TO LEARNING GREEK:

1. The writing is really sexy. For example, even saying "you are a fish with a large forehead" looks beautiful

είσαι ένα ψάρι με μεγάλο μέτωπο

(even insulting someone is now gorgeous)

2. You could read Homer's odyssey or iliad with much less confusion since it will make more sense in the original language. Also you seem smarter reading the iliad or odyssey.

3. You seem really cool, this honestly comes with learning any new language, but Greek is connected to English, making it easier to learn, often, despite its complexity.

3. Understanding English itself will be easier since a large amount of the english language stems from Greek, as well as Latin, but Latin writing isn't quite as sexy (my own personal opinion, this is probably just because it is so similar to English, which is boring to me)

4. It is still spoken, as opposed to learning Latin, a dead language, making it easier to learn since you are more likely to have a conversation in it with somebody else.

5. The alphabet is interesting, as all foreign languages are, but the use of certain letters, how there are two different s's, three different i's and two different o's.

6. Interesting etymological origins from words. Some words came from myths, such as the man Narcissus, and particularly my favourite is when something is καλλίπυγος (Callipygious) which originated from an association with Aphrodite calling her Aphrodite Kallipygos, as well as roman reference of callipygian Venus. Callipygian means "one with/of beautiful buttocks," which I find to be quite hilariously accurate in addition to the common reference to Aphrodite in this manner.

7. If none of this enticed anybody and you dont think youll even go to greece so why bother, here are many things in Greece worth seeing:

A) THE MUSEUM IN ATHENS: multiple museums in Athens houses more history than the British Museum (that's saying a lot) with 11,000 artefacts in just the Natural Archaeological Museum in Athens alone (the British Museum has only 2,000 artefacts). Unlike many societies, they docked down much of what they did very early on so we have so much unscripted and crazy history from the Greeks alone in writing, and even moreso in their abundance of beautiful, detailed art. Even if you hate the Greeks (every country has done some bad things) it's still worth checking out the museums there just for historical knowledge and context, it will teach you a lot, i promise you that.

B) THE COASTAL WATERS: just look at the Mediterranean water, does that NOT make you want to jump in??

C) there are cats everywhere, particularly in Crete.

D) there are thousands of sites related to greek myths such as: the cave and temple of the Oracle of Delphi, which actually existed, and are still sometimes praised to Apollo today; Mount Olympus, the largest mountain in greece and worth a climb; the site where the Spartan Society thrived (my favourite society of all time, whom you should seriously check out here if you do not know already, if you do know... you should check it out also bc Weird History in yt really explains it accurately and in such a cool way).

E) greek culture. An ancient custom is to be kind to travellers, which was a belief that the traveller could be a God in disguise, so one always must treat them like a king and invite them into their home. (Again, this was an ancient custom, I'm not sure how prominent it would still be but it is a nice thought and the general public say that Greeks, particularly rural, are the loveliest people you will meet, for they have the strongest connection to this culture.) If you see blue roofs in greece this was a cultural belief as well, thought that rhat particular shade of blue would ward off evil spirits and protect the home from disease and impurity. Greece's long history of celebrated gods which are now well known worldwide through the many tales told about them and worship in their names.

If you still aren't enticed, that's okay, I am not offended, I'm just passionate I hope I didn't hurt anybody's feelings, and pls tell me if i have offended anyone who is greek themselves, because I am not greek, just heavily in love with your culture, so pls do correct me. Have a lovely day everybody :>

Welcome to the Rat Party!

A sideblog for @ratasum to answer questions IC, with sketches and periodic screenshots, for three of my mains (with periodic appearances of Leyya's lovely wife, Zojja). Rules and introductions will be listed below.

A brief introduction to the three asura you can ask questions of on this blog:

Leyya of Pruri (trans woman, she/her, lesbian) A skilled associate within the Order of Whispers, Leyya was Zojja's childhood best friend and grew up alongside her. They remained close despite going into different colleges, and as things started heating up during the Personal Story, Leyya served as something of a liaison, keeping track of the Commander during her work with the Order of Whispers. Between getting a kryptis stuck in her head in Heart of Thorns, her long hiatus with Zojja in Lion's Arch after, and her near death during SotO after her possession overtook her, she's had a time. She's still extremely friendly and a little goofy, spending her days as (in her words) "Zojja's trophy housewife" while Zojja tackles her new job as a councilor. Currently, Leyya is helping to raise her baby sister Chuui after winning custody from her father.

Kippa of Suzzi (cis woman, she/her, demisexual) Originally from the lost asuran city of Rata Thauma, a cube that was above the doomed Thaumanova Reactor an was destroyed when it exploded, Kippa lost her entire family with the exception of her uncle, Steward Gixx of the Durmand Priory. She started traveling with Rhenn when he took on the role of Commander, distrustful of him initially. Over time, as Rhenn grew away from the Inquest and Kippa got to know him, a rapport grew between them, growing into attraction much later. During Icebrood Saga into End of Dragons, she discovered her terrifyingly powerful healing magic was - in fact - a result of her connection to the Elder Dragons, coming into her own as the Oracle of Aurene. She served as the Wayfinder during SotO, though currently she's taken a back seat after the birth of she and Rhenn's first child, their daughter Suzzi.

Rhenn of No One (cis man, he/him, bisexual) Born and raised in the Inquest, Rhenn spent most of his life in the shadow of his father Overseer Prikk in the Applied Maginetics lab in Metrica Province. He spent his entire life thinking that he was just a normal asura growing up within the megakrewe. When his father sent him out to approach the Priory after the disastrous mission on Claw Island, he just thought he was completing the Inquest's mission. Followed by his "assistant," a captive charr named Iuno, and the soft spoken Priory healer Kippa, he worked his way through his time as Commander, growing further away from the Inquest as he realized how wrong his understanding had been. It wasn't until S4 that he learned he was designed to be a weapon, grown in a lab to be the proof of concept for a line of custom made super soldiers for the Inquest, his resulting furious outburst causing him to crush his father's head with his hammer. Though he took the sideline during SotO, he's back to it in Janthir Wilds.

RULES

You can be flirty but remember they're all in relationships! You can ask about characters related to them, as well (like asking Leyya about Zojja or her family, Kippa about Gixx or her lost family in Rata Thauma, or Rhenn about his parents or lost sister).

PG13 at best; I do draw adult work but I won't be drawing any for this blog in particular.

I'll answer antagonizing stuff but I'll cut it off if it gets too mean/nasty.

Canon events may be different! Feel free to needle into them!

THERE WILL BE SPOILERS and they won't be under cuts. Please be aware of this.

More may be added but I think this is fine for now.

Every Awful Thing Minos Has Done

Y'all know why you're here, there's no need for any introduction.

The White Bull

Let's start this list with the zoophilic myth, and begin our journey with the mistake that, although mild compared to other wrongdoings commited by this man, clearly had interesting consequences. Minos refused to sacrifice the bull Poseidon sent to him. Poseidon did not find it funny. Therefore he punished him by making his wife lust for the beast he was never able to be in the bed.

Pseudo-Apollodorus, Bibliotheca 3. 8 - 11 (trans. Aldrich) (Greek mythographer C2nd A.D.) : "Minos aspired to the throne [of Krete (Crete)], but was rebuffed. He claimed, however, that he had received the sovereignty from the gods, and to prove it he said that whatever he prayed for would come about. So while sacrificing to Poseidon, he prayed for a bull to appear from the depths of the sea, and promised to sacrifice it upon its appearance. And Poseidon did send up to him a splendid bull. Thus Minos received the rule, but he sent the bull to his herds and sacrificed another... Poseidon was angry that the bull was not sacrificed, and turned it wild. He also devised that Pasiphae should develop a lust for it."

Ganymede

Poor minor Ganymede cannot be happy for five minutes. In this obscure, less known myth, he was kidnapped and raped by Minos. It is also speculated in Plato's Laws that cretans invented the myth of Ganymede being carried away by Zeus in order to justify Pederasty. Like father, like son.

Athenaeus, Deipnosophists:

"And many men used to be as fond of having boys as their favourites as women for their mistresses. And this was a frequent fashion in many very well regulated cities of Greece. Accordingly, the Cretans, as I have said before, and the Chalcidians in Euboea, were very much addicted to the custom of having boy-favourites. Therefore Echemenes, in his history of Crete, says that it was not Zeus who carried off Ganymedes, but Minos. But the before-mentioned Chalcidians say that Ganymedes was carried off from them by Zeus; and they show the spot, which they call Harpagium; and it is a place which produces extraordinary myrtles. And Minos abandoned his enmity to the Athenians, although it had originated in consequence of the death of his son, out of his love for Theseus; and he gave his daughter Phaedra to Theseus for his wife, as Zenis (or Zeneus) of Chios, tells us in his History of his Native Land."

Asterion

If the previous part is already disturbing you then let's delve deeper into this figure's heinous acts, and talk about the abusive relationships he had with his step-son, whom he didn't even bother to call by his own name and referred to as the "Bull of Minos" instead. While the Minotaur was admittedly one of the most famous monsters from Greek Mythology, one aspect I've seen being brought not so often into discussion is the way he was mistreated by Minos to the point of being isolated by humanity by getting imprisoned into the Labyrinth made by Daedalus, and how he's very likely a product of bestiality above it all. As the old saying goes: "Violence begets violence."

Apollodorus, Library:

"And she gave birth to Asterius, who was called the Minotaur. He had the face of a bull, but the rest of him was human; and Minos, in compliance with certain oracles, shut him up and guarded him in the Labyrinth. Now the Labyrinth which Daedalus constructed was a chamber "that with its tangled windings perplexed the outward way." The story of the Minotaur, and Androgeus, and Phaedra, and Ariadne, I will tell hereafter in my account of Theseus."

The Annual Sacrifices

Additionally, Minos not only that threw Asterion into a cage labyrinth, but also ordered that every year fourteen innocent people must be sacrificed annually to him. Everything stopped once Theseus offered himself as volunteer and eventually managed to kill the Minotaur.

Pseudo-Apollodorus, Bibliotheca 3. 213 : "The god [i.e. the oracle of Delphoi (Delphi)] told them [the Athenians] to give Minos [king of Krete (Crete)] whatever retribution he should chose... He ordered them to send seven young men and seven girls, unarmed, to be served as food to the Minotauros (Minotaur). The Minotauros was kept in a labyrinth, from which there was no escape after one entered, for it closed off its imperceivable exit with convoluted flexions. It had been constructed by Daidalos (Daedalus)."

This custom was also linked in the death of Minos' son, Androgenus, who was killed by Athenians. Consequently, Minos came up with this decision as a form of "making peace" with Athens.

Daedalus and Icarus

Depending on the version, either Minos threw Daedalus and his son into the Labyrinth after Theseus' victory and then followed him once they flew away (quite literally), or Daedalus found out earlier that Minos intented to punish him for helping Pasiphae mate with the bull and left Crete.

Apollodorus, Library (epitome):

"On being apprized of the flight of Theseus and his company, Minos shut up the guilty Daedalus in the Labyrinth, along with his son Icarus, who had been borne to Daedalus by Naucrate, a female slave of Minos. But Daedalus constructed wings for himself and his son, and enjoined his son, when he took to flight, neither to fly high, lest the glue should melt in the sun and the wings should drop off, nor to fly near the sea, lest the pinions should be detached by the damp."

Diodorus Siculus, 1-7:

"But Daedalus, they say, on learning that Minos had made threats against him because he had fashioned the cow, became fearful of the anger of the king and departed from Crete, Pasiphae helping him and providing a vessel for his escape. 6 With him fled also his son Icarus and they put in at a certain island which lay in the open sea. But when Icarus was disembarking onto the island in a reckless manner, he fell into the sea and perished, and in memory of him the sea was named the Icarian and the island was called Icaria. Daedalus, however, sailing away from this island, landed in Sicily near the territory over which Cocalus reigned as king, who courteously received Daedalus and because of his genius and his renown made him his close friend. 7 But certain writers of myths have the following account: Daedalus remained a while longer in Crete, being kept hidden by Pasiphae, and king Minos, desiring to wreak vengeance upon him and yet being unable to find him, caused all the boats which were on the island to be searched and announced that he would give a great sum of money to the man who should discover Daedalus. 8 Thereupon Daedalus, despairing of making his escape by any boat, fashioned with amazing ingenuity wings which were cleverly designed and marvellously fitted together with wax; and fastening these on his son's body and his own he spread them out for flight, to the astonishment of all, and made his escape over the open sea which lies near the island of Crete. 9 As for Icarus, because of the ignorance of youth he made his flight too far aloft and fell into the sea when the wax which held the wings together was melted by the sun, whereas Daedalus, by flying close to the sea and repeatedly wetting the wings, made his way in safety, marvellous to relate, to Sicily. Now as for these matters, even though the myth is a tale of marvel, we none the less have thought it best not to leave it unmentioned."

Furthermore, in Memorabilia of Socrates Daedalus isn't considered the king's former friend. Instead, it is stated that Minos enslaved him once he arrived in Crete because of his brilliant mind:

Xenephon, Memorabilia of Socrates:

But wisdom now, Socrates, — that at any rate is indisputably a good thing; for what is there that a wise man would not do better than a fool?" "Indeed! have you not heard how Daedalus was seized by Minos because of his wisdom, and was forced to be his slave, and was robbed of his country and his liberty, and essaying to escape with his son, lost the boy and could not save himself, but was carried off to the barbarians and again lived as a slave there?" "That is the story, of course." "And have you not heard the story of Palamedes? Surely, for all the poets sing of him, how that he was envied for his wisdom and done to death by Odysseus." "Another well-known tale!" "And how many others, do you suppose, have been kidnapped on account of their wisdom, and haled off to the great King's court, and live in slavery there?"

Dictynna

Diodorus' account mentions Minos' attempt to rape the cretan goddess Dictynna.

Diodorus Siculus, 1-7:

"Britomartis, who is also called Dictynna, the myths relate, was born at Caeno in Crete of Zeus and Carme, the daughter of Eubulus who was the son of Demeter; she invented the nets (dictya) which are used in hunting, whence she has been called Dictynna, and she passed her time in the company of Artemis, this being the reason why some men think Dictynna and Artemis are one and the same goddess; and the Cretans have instituted sacrifices and built temples in honour of this goddess. 4 But those men who tell the tale that she has been named Dictynna because she fled into some fishermen's nets when she was pursued by Minos, who would have ravished her, have missed the truth; for it is not a probable story that the goddess should ever have got into so helpless a state that she would have required the aid that men can give, being as she is the daughter of the greatest one of the gods, nor is it right to ascribe such an impious deed to Minos, who tradition unanimously declares avowed just principles and strove to attain a manner of life which was approved by men."

Scylla

One myth version involving Scylla has her falling in love with Minos and helping him become the master of Megara, only for him to betray and drown her.

Apollodorus, Library:

"But not long afterwards, being master of the sea, he attacked Athens with a fleet and captured Megara, then ruled by king Nisus, son of Pandion, and he slew Megareus, son of Hippomenes, who had come from Onchestus to the help of Nisus. Now Nisus perished through his daughter's treachery. For he had a purple hair on the middle of his head, and an oracle ran that when it was pulled out he should die; and his daughter Scylla fell in love with Minos and pulled out the hair. But when Minos had made himself master of Megara, he tied the damsel by the feet to the stern of the ship and drowned her."

Procris

Apollodorus and Antonius' accounts give us a different characterization of the Athenian princess Procris, at least compared to her earlier myths.

According to Apollodorus, Procris was discovered in bed with Pteleon by her husband, so she fled to Minos. Unfortunately, Minos was lusting over this girl. Even more unfortunate, due to reasons this guy refused to mention Pasiphae cursed Minos to, uhm... ejaculate scorpions? Which therefore ment that every woman he was sleeping with eventually died. Yaaay.... Anyway, Procris had no choice but to sleep with Minos, but before that she managed to cure his genital sickness with a circean herb. She had to leave Crete though due to his wife's jealousy.

"Chthonia was married to Butes, Creusa to Xuthus, and Procris to Cephalus, son of Deion. Bribed by a golden crown, Procris admitted Pteleon to her bed, and being detected by Cephalus she fled to Minos. But he fell in love with her and tried to seduce her. Now if any woman had intercourse with Minos, it was impossible for her to escape with life; for because Minos cohabited with many women, Pasiphae bewitched him, and whenever he took another woman to his bed, he discharged wild beasts at her joints, and so the women perished. But Minos had a swift dog and a dart that flew straight; and in return for these gifts Procris shared his bed, having first given him the Circaean root to drink that he might not harm her. But afterwards, fearing the wife of Minos, she came to Athens and being reconciled to Cephalus she went forth with him to the chase; for she was fond of hunting. As she was in pursuit of game in the thicket, Cephalus, not knowing she was there, threw a dart, hit and killed Procris, and, being tried in the Areopagus, was condemned to perpetual banishment."

Antonius, one the other hand, writes that Minos and Pasiphae were an infertile couple due to Minos' venomous equipment, and that the only woman who didn't die from having sex with him was his wife since she was a daughter of Helios. Procris helped them though to be able to reproduce themselves by -Oh, man...- inserting the bladder of a goat into a woman so that Minos would ejaculate the animals into that woman first before having intercourse with his wife. At this point I'm genuinely wondering wheter Antonius forgot that Pasiphae was technically able to cure Minos with her powers, or if Pasiphae was actually this type of freak... *side eyeing that bull*

"Cephalus, son of Deion, married at Thoricus in Attica Procris, daughter of Erechtheus. Cephalus was a handsome and brave youth and the goddess of Dawn fell in love with him because of his beauty. She kidnapped him, keeping him at home as a lover. And then Cephalus put Procris to a test to see if she was inclined to remain faithful to him. He pretended that he was going out hunting and sent in to Procris one of his servants who was not known to her, with a great deal of gold. He was instructed to say that a foreign gentleman had fallen in love with her and offered her this gold if she would have intercourse with him. At first Procris refused the gold but when the man sent double the quantity, she agreed and accepted the proposition. When Cephalus saw her approaching the house in order to lie with the foreigner, he brought out a flaming torch and discovered her. In her shame Procris forsook Cephalus and went off as a fugitive to Minos the king of Crete. She found on arrival that he was afflicted by childlessness and promised a cure, showing him how to beget children. Now Minos would ejaculate snakes, scorpions and millipedes, killing the women with whom he had intercourse. But his wife Pasiphae, daughter of the Sun, was immortal. Procris accordingly devised the following to make Minos fertile. She inserted the bladder of a goat into a woman and Minos first emitted the snakes into the bladder; then he went over to Pasiphae and entered her. And when children were born to them, Minos gave Procris his spear and his dog."

Plutarch's Account

Plutarch portrays Minos in a significantly more negative light in Life of Theseus:

"Not long afterwards there came from Crete for the third time the collectors of the tribute. Now as to this tribute, most writers agree that because Androgeos was thought to have been treacherously killed within the confines of Attica, not only did Minos harass the inhabitants of that country greatly in war, but Heaven also laid it waste, for barrenness and pestilence smote it sorely, and its rivers dried up; also that when their god assured them in his commands that if they appeased Minos and became reconciled to him, the wrath of Heaven would abate and there would be an end of their miseries, they sent heralds and made their supplication and entered into an agreement to send him every nine years a tribute of seven youths and as many maidens."

[...]

"Philochorus, however, says that the Cretans do not admit this, but declare that the Labyrinth was a dungeon, with no other inconvenience than that its prisoners could not escape; and that Minos instituted funeral games in honour of Androgeos, and as prizes for the victors, gave these Athenian youth, who were in the meantime imprisoned in the Labyrinth; and that the victor in the first games was the man who had the greatest power at that time under Minos, and was his general, Taurus by name, who was not reasonable and gentle in his disposition, but treated the Athenian youth with arrogance and cruelty."

[...]

"And Aristotle himself also, in his "Constitution of Bottiaea," clearly does not think that these youths were put to death by Minos, but that they spent the rest of their lives as slaves in Crete. And they say that the Cretans once, in fulfilment of an ancient vow, sent an offering of their first-born to Delphi, and that some descendants of those Athenians were among the victims, and went forth with them; and that when they were unable to support themselves there, they first crossed over into Italy and dwelt in that country round about Iapygia, and from there journeyed again into Thrace and were called Bottiaeans; and that this was the reason why the maidens of Bottiaea, in performing a certain sacrifice, sing as an accompaniment: "To Athens let us go!" And verily it seems to be a grievous thing for a man to be at enmity with a city which has a language and a literature."

[...]

"For Minos was always abused and reviled in the Attic theatres, and it did not avail him either that Hesiod called him "most royal," or that Homer styled him "a confidant of Zeus," but the tragic poets prevailed, and from platform and stage showered obloquy down upon him, as a man of cruelty and violence. And yet they say that Minos was a king and lawgiver, and that Rhadamanthus was a judge under him, and a guardian of the principles of justice defined by him."

[...]

"And Demon says also that Taurus, the general of Minos, was killed in a naval battle in the harbour as Theseus was sailing out. But as Philochorus tells the story, Minos was holding the funeral games, and Taurus was expected to conquer all his competitors in them, as he had done before, and was grudged his success. For his disposition made his power hateful, and he was accused of too great intimacy with Pasiphae. Therefore when Theseus asked the privilege of entering the lists, it was granted him by Minos."

🧿 Tarot Readings 🧿

Hello everybody! This is a post with updated information on the paid tarot readings that I offer mostly from this blog.

A Little About Me:

 I have been doing tarot readings for around eight years now. I started with a simple Ryder Waite deck, and have since evolved over time in both my views on the meanings of the cards as well as my perspective on tarot as a whole, for me, tarot is an incredibly useful tool for emotional and mental awareness, and provides a very good space for people to connect with themselves and reflect on their surroundings and how, different aspects of their lives both internal and external are affecting current scenarios are problems. I used tarot mainly with the intention of giving people a space to see their current state laid out in front of them, with no running away or hiding from your problems. It becomes a really great opportunity to confront any emotions that you may have been hiding from and reflect on why these emotions may be present. My biggest goal is to uplift people and to find solace in what the cards have to say. All my messages have the intention of bringing people closer to who they really want to be.

Also, another important thing to know is that on top of doing terror readings I also have a number of Oracle decks that I like to use or combine with my tarot to give a fully customized reading, depending on what the person getting the reading wants :) I’ve been doing Oracle readings for less time than my tarot, but I still do appreciate them as a really great tool for the reasons described above.

What do you get with a paid reading?

I do offer free single card readings on this blog, which I answer whenever I have the opportunity to. If you do ever want to get a small taste of how my readings work, that would be a really good way to get a sample. my paid readings, however, are first and foremost time sensitive – I make sure that they get to you as soon as humanly possible and they often have much higher priority on my list because you are paying for my service. You also get a chance to chat with me in a way that you wouldn’t be able to with a free reading – we can talk about what your goals are and what you hope to gain from the reading, You get to choose from my selection of decks, you get obviously multiple cards read to you if you wish, and both you and I can communicate with each other on what is going well in the reading and what things you may not connect with as much.

How much does a paid reading cost?

What you pay honestly depends on what you can afford or what you were willing to give. I usually gauge Celtic cross style readings with 10 cards starting at around 15 CAD, and will usually give more cards if more is paid less if less is paid. All of these things are things that you and I can talk about however, and none of these prices are set in stone. A lot of the time people want a set price, which is why I am giving these numbers now, but honestly whatever you’re willing to give, I would be very happy to accommodate :)

How do I get a paid reading?

I will link my ko-fi page below so that you can give donations from there. Usually you will put in an amount that you are willing to give, and there will be a small text box where you can add a message in that box I ask people to give their name their preferred pronouns, and a place that I can contact them further. You can give your Tumblr username, your email, your Instagram… other social media platforms I honestly don’t use as much. I’ll contact you from there and we can talk a little bit about your reading and what you’re looking for. I’ll come up with a spread that hopefully will align with what you want and then I’ll send you the reading from there!

LINK TO DONATION PAGE

Any questions?

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me through my Tumblr box or through my direct messages on Tumblr. Please note that any attempt to ask for a tarot reading through my DM box will not be accepted. I will, however, answer any questions or any comments that you might have about my tarot reading, or any questions you have about me in general :)

[p5x-theories]

More information about 4.0's content from today's post:

4.0 will last until April 29th, confirming this is the start of game versions lasting longer, as they told us would happen. The 29th is a Tuesday, though, instead of a Thursday- I'm not sure if this means they're changing the update day going forward? The new gachapon set with Cattle is said to last until "the update on June 12th", which suggests this update will be an outlier for ending on a Tuesday, but it's unclear

A new path in Mementos is also being added with the Palace, as expected

Aside from Ange's banner, there's another rerun banner, where the player can select three characters to pull for, out of: Joker, Bui, Fox, Queen, Chord, Summer Motoha, Summer Tomoko, Messa, Oracle, Noir, Dancer Mont, Violet, and Ceaseless Wind

"Anniversary event is open! Join the Wish Party and make cakes together!: When the first anniversary party is coming, mysterious desires are sweeping across the other world. The protagonists who happened to go to Mementos met the mysterious shadow "Besa". At Besa's invitation, everyone decided to collect decorations together, dress up the cake together, and help Besa complete the filming of the show!"

It sounds like there's another collective event, similar to the sixth-month anniversary, where all the players on the server add to the collective count of items by logging in and completing daily tasks, and once the entire server hits certain milestones, there are rewards for everyone

They also mention an "Anniversary Wish" function, where players can choose from free rewards and contribute a vote towards which character they want to be added as a future Confidant, out of a list of 18 characters (I'll post the list when I can see it myself in-game, in one week)

Another anniversary feature lets you make a custom cake that you'll later get as a Thieves Den decoration

Joker's butler costume will be available for the duration of this game version, available in a raffle similar to how Wonder's Spring Festival outfit was

As expected, Manaka will be romanceable, but only her first 14 ranks will be added with this version, while Mayumi's ranks 15-20 will also be added

More new Revelation Cards are being added

The special rule for this season of Tycoon's ranked matches: the Beggar will always get a Wonder card, and the Poor will always get a four-of-a-kind

The Moko card skin is called "Sweet Illusion" ♥3, the Rin card skin is "Exorcism" ♥10, and the Crow card skin is "Prince Style" ♦K

The rewards given by the Sea of Souls trials and Door to Ominous Dreams fights have been increased, since they now last three weeks along with the game version itself

A new Star Trial begins as well, based on the Taurus constellation

Cherish and Howler have now been added to the pool used by the "Cognitive Gift Box" item, which gives the player a random non-limited 5-star upon use. Unused Cognitive Gift Boxes will update to this pool automatically, even if they were obtained before Version 4.0

Similarly, the function that allows players to create their own Revelation Cards has been expanded to include any cards added before or with Version 3.0.1

They've adjusted some characters for balancing purposes, as previously announced; the adjusted characters are: Joker, Summer Closer, Summer Moko, Messa, Crow, Howler, Matoi, Ceaseless Wind, and Noir. Some Personas were also adjusted: Sandalphon, Kohryu, Yamata-No-Orochi, Thor, King Frost, and Chernobog

A new "resource manager" function will allow players to delete/re-download certain resources, allowing them to lessen the game file size a bit

hi kossai! i was wondering if you had any favorite glamourbombs that you like to do? i know you mentioned one about keeping buttons and beads with money and i love the idea. i need more glamourbombing in my life

well , hmm ... this is not ultimate favourite per se , but tend to be some of easiest to pull off : slips of paper , or small paper crafts , which decorate in faerie quotes and symbols . 

one fun way to go about this is to circle location in question , so as to make " faerie ring " of glamourbombs . if possible as well , inside furniture for sale , books , display tarot or oracle decks - anywhere that people will not immediately notice and possibly throw out . that is always risk with glamourbomb objects , so very important to weigh attachment and effort ! 

for example , one old glamourbomb community post suggest glamourbomber should dress up in faerie garb , with some kind of journal in which write tales of faerie world , to then rush off and leave journal behind . but write can be hard work - and hey , one could even make fully custom junk journal to fine tune faerie appearance . at that point , that would be huge amount of effort and possible attachment , when there is no guarantee anyone would look inside and enjoy curiosity .

so why leave behind that whole journal ? maybe just pin down one little slip of paper with strange faerie alphabet - or if of ability , safety , and confidence to act , call someone over to ask about recommendations for where elven folk can have fun , or how to say something in human tongue , or anything else which spring to mind . 

but really think best glamourbomb is just , understand and embrace what feel most faerie , and channel actions through euphoria and glamour . glamourbomb objects fun no doubt , but glamour is not from objects - glamour is from within , objects just give physical form that others might pick up and think about .

to that end , little details like button money or magical grocery lists can help with image , especially if confidence in glamour is shaky , but not true necessity . not everyone will be able to recognise glamour even if glamour brick smack in face , but might surprise sometimes how many people will to at least some extent . :)

( hmm , glamour brick , what would that look like ? maybe chunky purple glitter , and some silly little faerie slogan ... :P )
