#TF: Twisted Legacy

[tryandbehappy]

yeah that theory is great but I don't think they planned it at all, it feels like Eric Tuchman really wanted that man dead. BUT I can see them pulling it in The Testaments if needed, especially if EC isn't that involved creatively and it's up to Bruce Miller call the shots (who would imagine him being the most reasonable? not me).

I won't get my hopes up, but it would be the easiest way to increase the ratings. I mean, I'm not going to watch that show, but if I found out they brought him back I would easily go back to that hellhole because I am weak.

It would be realistic? not at all, but at this point who tf cares? after all the unrealistic bullshit in season 6 I would easily embrace this one

THIS

I feel the same. I also think that if they did have a twist like that, they would’ve revealed it in the last 5 minutes of the episode. And it would’ve been fucking epic.

Imagine June sitting on the windowsill, closing her eyes, and seeing flashes of how she stopped Nick from getting on the plane. How she cried and held him.

And then just a little hint of where he is now. That would’ve had everyone waiting for “The Testaments.”That would’ve given them sky-high ratings.

But now their asses are on fire. Their whole reputation went straight down the drain. And their only trump card left - if they care even a little about their work and legacy - is to bite the bullet.

I’m sure this depends on people above the writers, the ones who want money. Nick is their money. Fans can influence this if we make enough noise everywhere.

Rick missed a chance when he made Anklys beg when Percy choked her. I mean like. She’s the goddess of misery. She lives off pain. If I was Anklys choked on my own poison, I’d laugh in Percy’s face as I wither away into dust in the most twisted, gut-wrenching, gore-y dance ever. Who tf cares if I live or not. My misery would be my legacy.

______________________________________

The notion that only the strong should survive, while the weak must perish, is a harsh and unforgiving principle that has long haunted humanity. This cruel fate, where each day is a struggle for survival, is a reality that no one wishes to face. Yet, humans cling desperately to the fragile thing called life, even when they know its worth is diminished.

The fear of being forgotten after death drives many to seek recognition and legacy, leading them to battle against the forces they call "curses." The desire to leave a lasting impact, to have one's name remembered, becomes a driving force in this relentless struggle.

Exhaustion, pain, and the overwhelming sensations of this battle weigh heavily upon you. The sight of the fireflies dancing against the night sky, the warmth of the flames cutting through the darkness, and the stench of burning flesh – all of these sights and smells have become all too familiar. You have grown accustomed to the widened eyes and open mouths of the victims, the anguished cries as their souls are forcibly taken from them.

Yet, despite your perceived victory, the groans and cries of pain still linger, and you find yourself the sole survivor. As you stand there, you long to close your eyes, hoping that this is all just a twisted, nightmarish dream. But the harsh reality remains, and you know there is no escape from this torment.

Your breathing is ragged, your armor deeply cracked and missing pieces, your body coated in your own blood as well as that of your fallen allies. You had desperately tried to heal your wounds using reverse cursed techniques, but you were well aware of your own weakness in that area. The question of why you continue to fight, for what or for whom, remains unanswered, even as you struggle to find any justification.

Is it merely human instinct, this pitiful clinging to life in the face of such overwhelming adversity?

"That expression of yours is truly amazing, General." a deep, resonant voice rumbles. A tall, monstrous figure stands before you – four arms, four glowing eyes. No matter how many times you witness this sight, you cannot quell the fear that grips you.

Your hands tighten around your spear, unwilling to indulge this creature's ego by standing idly. "Still got the energy to fight?" it asks, tilting its head and regarding you with a disturbing intensity.

Your cursed technique is blood manipulation, and you swiftly charge forward, coating the sharp blade of your spear with your own poisonous blood. The spear pierces the creature, your blood seeping into its body and creating deep, oozing wounds from the inside.

Yet, this is Sukuna, the King of Curses, and he is immune to your poison. Even as the holes open in his flesh, he merely laughs, unperturbed. "You never cease to amaze me, General. Have you been training hard for me, dear?"

Infuriated by his dismissive attitude, you slice the spear downward, cleaving the creature in half. "Not enough. Do better." it taunts, its body already knitting itself back together with its remarkable reverse cursed technique.

You retreat, gritting your teeth in frustration. It is not fear that drives you, but the sting of your own inadequacy in the face of Sukuna's power and regenerative abilities.

"You know, General, you'd do yourself a favor by surrendering," the creature says, the familiar refrain. Normally, you would ignore such suggestions, but in your current dire circumstances, you find yourself compelled to ask, "What do you want from me?"

Sukuna seems to have been captivated by the sound of your voice. Hearing you finally speak, his eyes twitch with what appears to be a sense of wonder. "Have I been blessed?" he murmurs under his breath, watching you intently.

This question alone unsettles you, and your gaze remains locked with his.

He notices you are waiting for him to answer. "Hmm. After our little skirmishes, supposedly I am to kill you," he smirks, amused by your irritated expression. "But now, my mind has changed because I'm feeling generous. How about you come with me? To my shrine. I would take good care of you."

"I would rather die," you scoff, glaring at him with undisguised disdain. "Than be anywhere near you."

Sukuna is unbothered by your response. "Now, that is rather harsh, don't you think? I'm doing you a favor, General. Be a good little girl and just accept it." Your frustration grows, angry veins pulsing at your temple. "Give me a break here. You have no actual reason to keep me," you retort.

He chuckles endearingly. "Perhaps because I want to. You know me, I do whatever the hell I want - there's no need for me to voice a reason for my actions." A cocky bastard, indeed.

"How about you kill me instead? You didn't stop killing those innocent humans, after all. I shouldn't be an exception." you challenge.

Sukuna goes silent, the smirk disappearing from his face. You freeze as you take another step back, unsure of what to make of this shift in his demeanor. But Sukuna is quick to react, closing the distance with long strides until he is right in front of you.

You swiftly try to stab him with your spear, but this time you find yourself on the ground, your weapon far out of reach. Sukuna doesn't seem pleased by your gaze being fixed on the lost spear, so to recapture your attention, he slams his hand onto the ground next to your face. The impact shakes the earth, and you jump at the sudden action.

Your eyes dart back to his face, unsure which set of eyes to focus on - the upper pair or the lower. The creature leans in close, his breath fanning across your skin, and you feel a shiver run down your spine. Trapped between the ground and his imposing form, you find yourself in a deeply uncomfortable position.

"But why on earth would I do that?" he murmurs, his tone almost gentle. "It's much better if I keep you alive, don't you think?"

His right upper hand holds your chin firmly, forcing your eyes to meet his gaze. His other two hands are busily removing your cuirass with disinterest. His lower pair of eyes stare hungrily at your form beneath the armor, his eyes flickering in annoyance at the sight of your hitatare but still savoring your petite frame.

Yet, his upper eyes remain fixated on your face, creating a truly horrifying sight to behold.

"And to me," he breathes, taking in the conflicted expression on your face with amusement. "You caught my interest the first time we fought - not many are able to do that. You should consider yourself honored to have the attention of the one and only Ryomen Sukuna."

Your breath hitches as his hands reach behind your back, untying the haidate and carelessly tossing it away. His hands now grow bolder, moving to begin untucking your hitatare. Your frozen body finally reacts, and you grip his wrists tightly.

"Don't touch me." you speak with venom, disgust etched across your features. But you doubt your words penetrate his thick skull, for he remains enraptured by the sight of you.

Asshole.

With a surge of emotion, you knee him forcefully in the groin, hoping that even a curse would feel pain in such a vital area. However, you are wrong - Sukuna is no ordinary curse. He merely snorts at your attempt. "When you're trying to hit me, use your full power. I want you to waste that energy of yours only on me."

"Although I cannot say I'm not slightly aroused by the feel of your knee on my groin..." he chuckles, leaving you to stare at him in disbelief. "You're disgusting." you spit harshly, your brow furrowed in revulsion.

"Sure am, General. Only for you, though." he replies with a wink.

"Now, where were we?" His eyes roam over your body, and you despise the hungry glint in his gaze. "Ah, why don't you close those pretty eyes of yours for me?" he muses. You want to defiantly talk back, but darkness quickly overtakes your vision, and the last sensation you feel is a slight pain in your nape.

__________________________________________

The water is cold, but you don't mind it as you keep falling deeper and deeper. You shut your eyes, letting your body embrace the water. Small bubbles escape your lips - it's truly frigid. Is this the afterlife? It feels so lonely.

Breath.

You jolt upright, breathing heavily and immediately reaching for your neck. You're still breathing. That dream felt far too realistic. Your heart pounds against your chest at a frantic pace.

Your eyes scan the room, falling upon a figure - a young maiden who is seemingly wiping the tatami floor. "What is this place?" you speak, startling the maid as she looks back at you. "You're already awake? Well, you're currently in our master Sukuna Ryomen's shrine - he was the one who brought you here." she replies with a weak smile, as if taking pity on you.

You'd pity yourself as well.

"This place is that monster's shrine?" you huff, your fingers tightening around the fabric of the blanket. Why didn't he kill you? He had every chance to. You look at your wrist - you don't have much flesh, and you probably wouldn't have tasted good either.

"I'm out of here," you say, standing up. A slight headache comes suddenly, but you ignore it, quickly sliding the shoji open. "My lady, you can't—" the woman starts, but you ignore her, moving through the corridors until you find yourself stepping on grass.

"Already running away?"

You freeze in your tracks, that familiar voice behind you. But you don't look back - you force your legs, which were about to give up on you, to continue running. You don't want to die. Not like this.

You keep running and running, the stones and sticks leaving their marks on your bleeding feet. But you don't mind - if it means you'll get away, then there's no reason to succumb to the pain.

Sukuna is nowhere to be seen or heard - did he let you leave? It doesn't matter. The door is now in front of you, only five more steps and you'll be—

....

You fall to your knees, eyes widened as your feet are cut with a clean, precise strike. There's no doubt that it was him. You stare, horrified, at the sight before you - the blood is spilling down in gallons.

Your breath heaves as your heart thumps faster. Is this how you'll die? You try to manipulate your own blood to close the wounds, using a reverse cursed technique, but it's very weak and ineffective.

"I have so many options in mind right now," Sukuna says, slowly circling around you as you struggle to stand straight and take this without reacting much. Which is hard, given the fact that you are in such a vulnerable position. "We could be here all night so you can scream louder as much as you can. Oh, I've always been curious to hear that from you. Though it can be a tricky accomplishment when it requires agonizing methods while you have such frail resistance."

Your heart beats faster at every word the demon utters. The cold is starting to numb your muscles.

"Extreme measures might be too soon to execute. I still want to get to know you! We can't have you unresponsive after this," the curse continues, before adding an afterthought. "So I thought about it and came up with something mild? How about starting with your ability to walk?" His hands grab your wrists, slicing them cleanly, and you let out a scream of agony as the blood spills down. "And secondly, your hands." He rests his hand on your head and steers you to look at him face to face. Sukuna grins. "Take it as a warning."

"Because believe me when I say that I'll do anything to keep you here with me." His hand trails down your face, and you turn away from his touch, which earns you a laugh from him.

"Even in this situation and position, you're bold. But that's what makes things so entertaining. That's what makes you so valuable to me, general." He grasps your chin, making you look at him, and your hand immediately reacts, warping around his wrist. "Still, I don't like it when you turn away from me. I want those pretty eyes on me all the time, even when they're filled with hatred, and even when they're dull and lifeless."

"Because your eyes outshine every damn star in this universe."

You spit in his face, and he freezes up, staring at you wide-eyed, as if processing what you just did. Suddenly, he lets out a chuckle. "Oh, general, if this is you trying to get me to kill you, then I can only tell you that you're failing miserably."

He hums as his hands trace your arms and legs, healing them as if the wounds never happened to begin with. After he heals your hand, you immediately throw a punch across his face. "Ah, come on. You spit at me, then hit me?" He muses as he rubs the reddened place.

"Is this the thanks I get for healing you?" He chuckles as he looks at you with pure enjoyment. "You're the reason why I needed healing in the first place." You raise your hand to throw another punch at him, but he easily catches your hand.

"That's fair..." He hums as he puts a strand of hair behind your ear, and you slap his hand in return. "Still, don't be ungrateful, general. I don't use my reverse cursed technique twice on the same person, you know."

"Twice?"

"Oh, but of course, you don't remember our first time, dear! You were unconscious after all." He says dramatically. "Don't make it sound weird." You huff, and he grins. "You're just dirty-minded, sweetheart." He replies, which earns him a glare.

"Let's get back on track, shall we?" He chuckles endearingly. "When I brought you here, your whole body was filled with injuries, and poor you were trying to desperately use your own reverse cursed technique to heal yourself. But it was too weak to help you."

"While you were tossing and turning, biting your lips as you were sweating, making your hair stick to your forehead... it was such a mesmerizing scene. Still, my kind heart couldn't see you suffering any more than this, so I healed you." He explains it with his over-the-top acting.

You look at him with disbelief, a slight hint of annoyance visible in your eyes. "It would've been better if you'd left me to die," you murmur quietly, still, he hears it. "Now, now, don't be so suicidal. I promise you that life here isn't as bad as you interpret."

"Of course it's not. But your existence ruins everything," you huff. "Straight to the heart, general, that was painful," he says dramatically, wiping a non-existent tear. "As if you have one," you roll your eyes as you stand up from the grass.

You nearly stumble, but a hand snakes around your waist. "You should be more careful," Sukuna speaks in a low voice in your ear, making you flinch and push him away immediately, stepping back. "Always the strongest reactions, general," he chuckles as he steps closer to you and scoops you into his arms. "We should head back now."

"Put me down!" You shout, almost in a shrill manner. You're revolted, angry, and frustrated. Nothing could ever convince you to go back. "Let go of me!"

"General, you're only making this harder for yourself," Sukuna says. "I suggest you sit still… before one of your limbs is going to be dismembered again. You don't want that, right?" The displeasure tone in his warning has you shutting up. You go rigid. "Good girl."

"Don't call me that," you spit.

"Why? Does it make you feel things, general? How naughty of you," he chuckles, which earns him a glare from you.

"I'm joking," he says, defeated. "Or am I."

"Shut up."

"Want to have dinner with me?" He asks on the way back. "No," you immediately reply.

"You didn't even think about it."

"I don't need to."

Once you two are back, you immediately notice the missing figure of the woman that was in here. You turn your attention towards the curse. "Where is she?"

"Hmm?" He looks at you, confused, before it clicks for him. "Oh, you mean Yuki? The maiden that was attending to you?" He inquires. "Yes, her."

"How amusing, you actually seem concerned, although you left her wailing here while you ran away." he chuckles as he adjusts the collar of your kimono. You want to push his hand away before he moves his face closer to yours, making you freeze.

"I ate her."

Your eyes widen as anger fills you, your hands balling into fists. "You bastard!" You throw a punch at him, but he easily holds your hand, twisting your arms behind your back before pressing you to his body. "General... I'd advise you to think before doing anything; your actions have consequences after all." he mutters lowly.

"Yuki is dead because of you."

Your breath hitches as your heart thumps faster.

That's not true.

It's not your fault.

"Don't give me that crap! You're the one who killed her!" You struggle against him, but it's no use.

"I wouldn't have done so if you didn't leave," he muses. "You blame everyone around you but yourself."

That's not true.

It's not your fault.

"Have you ever thought about the fact that everyone died because of you? On the battlefield... how can you live with yourself, knowing that you're the reason those comrades of yours died because you led them there?" He leans down to your ear. "How can you live with yourself, knowing you're the only one who survived that day...hm?" The screams on that day, the cries, the blood, the stench of burnt flesh - it all comes flooding back to your mind.

It's not your fault... right?

"Shut up... you don't know what you're talking about..." You murmur, staring into nothingness. His breath on your skin gives you goosebumps. "Let go." you snarl.

This asshole is trying to make you break.

"I knew it will be hard to break your spirit," he chuckles as he releases your wrists. You rub your wrist; his hold will definitely leave a mark. You didn't even notice the tight grip he had on you.

"But that's what makes it so much fun," he muses as he stares at you with amusement. "Say, why don't we take this opportunity and exchange our names, hm? I haven't introduced myself properly to you yet, you know."

You glower, rolling your eyes so hard you swear it would travel behind your brain. "I'm not sharing my name with the likes of you."

"Then how am I supposed to address you?"

"You don't."

"Boring," he complains. "How about I come up with a nickname for you?"

"You know what nickname I have for you?" You inquire.

"Oh?" He stares at you, amused. "What?"

"Worthless asshole."

He laughs in return, seemingly unbothered by the insult you threw at him. "Are you implying we should call each other nicknames? I could get used to yours, but I'd rather you make it a tiny bit sweeter."

"I have a few in mind, actually," Sukuna titters. "You'll probably like them. Ladies love it whenever they're being addressed sweetly."

"Too bad, because I'm not that kind of person to fluster." you scoff, craning your neck to be able to glare at him. He chuckles in return.

"Is that a challenge?" His eyes narrow with mirth. "Perhaps we could play a little game."

You mirror him, but with disdain. "Game?"

"That is an intriguing proposition you've presented spontaneously, since you declined my invitation for a shared meal and the privilege of learning your name. We shall have to make this interaction more captivating, shall we not? Lay your suggested favors upon the table."

"What kind of favor did you have in mind?"

"Whatever you desire." He responded simply, observing your expression of surprise.

"That is an unusually generous offer, coming from someone such as yourself."

"Believe me, there are other actions I would relish taking against you in this moment, my dear, but I must first become better acquainted with you." He clicked his tongue, noting your rigid demeanor.

The audacity of that endearment.

"I find that difficult to believe." You scowled. "You do not seem the type to freely allow your perceived adversary to request anything of you."

"Let us refrain from using such confrontational terminology as 'enemy.'" Sukuna cautions. "This is merely playful banter. What harm could there be in it?"

A curse proposing games is deeply unsettling. Curses and games should never be uttered in the same breath. "That depends on the nature of this proposed game."

"Very well then, what is it you desire?" He asks, with an unexpectedly courteous tone. "As for myself, I simply wish for you to dine with me each day. I seek the company of my esteemed general."

You blink, momentarily taken aback. "Dine with you...daily?"

He nods. "Breakfast, lunch, and dinner." He enumerates on his fingers.

You cannot help but gape at the audacity of the suggestion. Are you to watch him devour living humans as you partake of your own modest meals? The very idea fills you with a strong urge to wrap your hands around his neck and choke the life from him.

"Absolutely not." You vehemently shake your head. "I shall demand that you kill yourself."

"If that is your wish." He appears neither upset nor offended, merely shrugging. "The game is simple. You claimed yourself to be resistant to flustering, did you not? Heh. We shall see about that... For the duration of the evening, I shall address you by various names and endearments, and the challenge is for you to refrain from any reaction whatsoever. If you succeed, we shall abide by your terms. If you fail, and lose, then we shall follow mine."

What purpose could this possibly serve?

"Now, how about we play a game of Go while we engage in our little wager?"

Go? You have never played before.

"I am unfamiliar with the rules of that game." You admit, though you are taken aback when you see him return to the room, for you had not noticed him depart.

"That is of no consequence, for I have already instructed the servant to bring us the game board." He seats himself upon the tatami floor, and you sigh in resignation as you take your place opposite him.

"Do not fret, my dear, I shall be sure to go easy on you." He chuckled. "At least in our game of Go."

You rolled your eyes at the endearment. "I hold no concerns about losing at that game, as we did not establish any wager upon it."

"Indeed. Nonetheless, I would advise you to familiarize yourself with the rules, for this shall certainly not be the last time we engage in a match." He stated, as the maid entered, placing the game board between the two of you. Your eyes widened at the sight of the woman.

"Yuki...?" What an unexpected development. Had Sukuna truly consumed her, as he had claimed? She offered you a small smile before excusing herself and departing the chamber, at Sukuna's behest.

You turned your gaze back to the curse, who was focused on arranging the game pieces in their proper positions. "What is the meaning of this, Sukuna?" You snarled, sweeping the board and its contents onto the floor in a flurry of scattered pieces.

Instantly, you found yourself before him, gripping his collar as you glared accusingly. "You claimed to have devoured her!" His eyes briefly flickered to the disrupted game before meeting your own, a smile upon his features.

"Did I?" He feigned innocence. "Ah, yes, I suppose I did."

"You seem displeased that she yet lives...should I have ensured her demise, my dear?" He tilted his head, observing your reaction with amusement.

"That is not the issue here!" You snarled, your grip tightening. "And do not address me with such saccharine endearments, you wretched cur."

"Hmm, you do have a rather short temper." His hands reached to grasp your wrists, his other pair seizing your hips. "Yet i have a few ways to fix that."

In the blink of an eye, you found yourself pinned to the floor, the curse looming over you. "Unhand me this instant."

"Why, you have your hands upon me, yet when I reciprocate, it is deemed improper?" He taunted. "Hardly a fair standard, my dear."

"And why should you alone be permitted to indulge in me, when we could enjoy each other's company?" He mused, a hint of amusement in his tone.

Reluctantly, you released your hold upon his collar. "Release me."

"As you wish." He chuckled, rising to his feet and striding towards the shoji screen.

"Where are you going?" You asked, perplexed.

"Why, already missing my presence, my dear general?" He turned, regarding you with a smile. "The game has concluded, for you have already reacted to my chosen endearment."

"That is absurd!" You argued. "It was due to your deception regarding Yuki, not your infuriating manner of address."

"Ah, but a reaction is a reaction, nonetheless." He hummed, exiting through the shoji. "Do not keep me waiting too long for our shared meals, my dear. I find myself growing most impatient."

This entire situation is utterly preposterous.

[lady-arcane]

: Life and Lies of : ~Lady Rowan Baelish~

"The court loves a tragedy, but the audience? Oh, they're worse. You all watch with bated breath, waiting for the fall, for the blood, for the spectacle of it all. You’re no different from the vultures that circle the Red Keep—except you do not even pretend to mourn. But then again… what’s wrong with being a little wicked, hmm?"

—Lady Rowan to Viewers

(A jest, perhaps. But there’s always truth in a well-timed jest.)

-----

A Memory —

Rowan Baelish learned young that silence was a weapon sharper than steel. She had been a child of quiet corners and half-heard whispers, of watching men lie and women smile as they twisted the knife. 'Clever girl,' her father had once murmured, pride curling in his voice like smoke. But cleverness was a double-edged thing.

Once, when she was very small, she had asked a whore in her father’s brothel if the world was kind. The woman had laughed—a soft, bitter sound—and kissed her brow. "No, little bird," she had said. "But if you learn how to sing the right tune, the world might pretend it is."

----

Who Is Lady Rowan Baelish?

Born: The only acknowledged daughter of Petyr Baelish, a girl born on the fringes of power and raised within its shadows.

Age: 13 years old at the start of A Song of Ice and Fire

Titles: “Baelish’s Girl,” “The Mockingbird’s Daughter” (Later: Lady of Highgarden)

Appearance: Warm copper-colored hair, mint-green eyes, favors dark blue and green gowns

Personality: Socially charming, observant, strategic, kind-seeming but never naïve

(a girl who understands that power is not just taken—it is earned, owed, and wielded.)

Role in Court: Lady-in-waiting to Princess Myrcella, navigating the world of power and deceit

-----

Notable Relationships :

Petyr Baelish – The father she respects but does not trust, the man who shaped her but does not own her. A lesson and a warning, all in one.

Loras Tyrell – A husband in name, a friend in truth, a partner in ambition. A marriage of convenience that became something more—an unspoken understanding, a promise of survival, a bond that no bedchamber could define.

Aegon VI (Young Griff) – A love written in stolen moments, in hands that reached but never held for long. A romance that could never be, a longing burdened by duty. In another life, perhaps. But in this one? Love is a sacrifice, and kings do not keep what does not serve the crown.

-----

What Will Be Her Legacy?

She is the daughter of a man who built his fortune on whispers and deceit, a girl raised not on lullabies but on half-truths and well-placed smiles.

Born from a fleeting moment of want and accepted only when it suited him, Rowan Baelish grew up learning that love and loyalty were currencies—rarely given freely, always traded for something.

Alright, after seeing the polls (tf it was a tie 💀) ( after much internal screaming and debating), I’ve decided to officially step into A Song of Ice and Fire! And what better way to do that than by introducing an OC I’ve been obsessing over for way too long?

Of course, I’ll still be writing my usual one-shots and headcanons, but I really wanted to dive into a full character study because, let’s be honest—I’ve been consumed by ASOIAF for years now.

So, meet Lady Rowan Baelish. Petyr Baelish’s only acknowledged daughter, a girl born into manipulation and ambition yet trying to carve her own path. She’s everything I love about morally complex characters—sharp, observant, deeply self-aware, and walking that fine line between survival and power.

---

I hope you all like her! Feel free to send in questions, theories, or just yell at me about her—I’d love to talk more about the world I’m building around her. First chapter should be up tomorrow, so stay tuned!

✨ Bye and take care, Hope you all have a good day✨

Cybertron beginnings AU

When Primus, the god-like creator of the Cybertronian race, sacrificed his own life force to forge the world of Cybertron, he also birthed twelve legendary beings—The Primes. These original Transformers were more than leaders; they were living embodiments of Primus’s will, each representing a different aspect of Cybertronian existence. As Cybertron flourished, its population expanded with new life emerging from the Well of Allsparks, the sacred font from which all Transformers were born.

Among them was Alpha Trion, a sage created by Primus not for battle, but for guidance. Gifted with insight and foresight, Alpha Trion served as the mentor of the Primes and the voice of Primus when the deity’s presence faded into myth. It was Alpha Trion who chronicled their deeds and kept the ancient wisdom alive, a custodian of destiny and time.

The Thirteen (as the Twelve were later remembered with Alpha Trion often counted among them in legend) included: Prima, the first and eldest, wielding the Star Saber; Solus Prime, the first female Transformer and master creator; Megatronus, the warrior known as the Fallen, mightiest in strength; Alchemist Prime, seeker of spiritual balance; Micronus Prime, the first Minicon and embodiment of unity; Onyx Prime, beast-bonded and attuned to nature; Quintus Prime, the explorer and life-seeder; Nexus Prime, originator of the Combiners; Vector Prime, master of time; Amalgamous Prime, the shape-shifter and avatar of change; Liege Maximo, manipulator of words and wills; and Zeta Prime, the youngest, driven by ambition and a hunger for order.

In an era when threats to Cybertron grew bolder, Primus guided Alpha Trion to urge the Primes to take on apprentices—successors who would carry their legacies and stand by their side in battle. At the grand selection ceremony, the air thrummed with anticipation as most Primes unveiled their chosen protégés. All but Prima.

Onyx Prime nudged him, insisting he choose the strongest candidate—one who could mirror his martial prowess. But fate had its own designs. In an almost comedic twist of destiny, a Transformer tumbled from the rooftop above, landing in a heap at Prima’s feet. She was smaller than most, her white and gray armor scuffed from the fall, her blue optics wide with embarrassment. Her name was Angel.

The Inheritance Games

The Inheritance Games

A 4 Star read for me | I loved all the clues and mysterys and the twist at the end

AND SHORT CHAPTERS

YES

⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Hawthorne Legacy

A 3 Star read for me | That ending was SO DISAPPOINTING oh my god why tf wouldn't you make Toby Avery's father but give him a whole other daughter. That wasn't a good twist it just annoyed the fuck out of me

⭐⭐⭐

The Final Gambit

A 3 Star read for me | I'm really glad I started this series without expectations and only for the short chapters because from book to book I got more annoyed. Grayson was a whiny hoe, Eve was insufferable from the start, the love triangle was SO unnecessary and the series would have just been better without the romance

⭐⭐⭐

The Inheritance Games Series

Overall it was a 3 star series for me

⭐⭐⭐

[minalblood]

Ep 10... oh boy theres a lot to say with this one.

We begin with a nice twist. The woman needing help is Akrida and the victim is the other woman who's stopped to help. Since I've recently been reminded of it, this set up instantly made me think of Sam.meeting Cole for the 1st time, but in that the one flatlined actually needed help.

The Akrida committed to the acting I see.

God the actresses did such a good job raising the tension

LOVE seeing Millie do more handywork around. We dont have nearly enough of her getting into machinery

Mary and John hating being left to research is funny af to me.

Congrats Mary for getting into college and I like that John is actually happy for her, even ribbing her a bit. Love that dynamic actualy.

"Normal life will have to wait another day" thay cut deep fellas ngl. Mainly because i would argue its exactly what Sam and Dean told themselves to put off actually getting to do anything they wanted. And we have this exact sentiment echoed 5 min later by Carlos for why they need to break up with Anton (cant afford to with the fate of the world on their shoulders). The fact that both of these are accompanied by Dean's monologue about hunting and happy endings? Very very relevant to Dean and the life he led. But more importantly, the "how far will I go to get it" echoes back a few.more things amd makes it almost ominous. We'll come back to this when we meet Mr Sheffield (i dont remmeber the characters name rn, will use it later when they say it) since the dark meaning to Dean's words is highlighted by his story.

This might be the most clear indication of who Carlos was before the Winchesters, the version Samuel was mentioning when talking about them a few ep ago. The lone wolf version, the impulsive one, the not getting close to ppl one. Im very happy they've changed, i think they're happier like this.

Oh noooo, I forgot we have Roxy here 🥲 this'll hurt.

John and Mary see a tea set and alphabetized books out: now thats truly disturbing behaviour

John and Mary any other time: eh, thats normal

I live for the chaotic pair these 2 make together

Why tf does he still have the key if they threw him.out of the MOL? Then again, considering the many issues with the MOL, this is only a mildly annoying thing.

Ah yes, hunters are apes commentary, ffs what even started this bullshit feud between hunters and MOL?? It was there on Samuel's side too, and we even see Henry go with that particular opinion...

Sooo, either Jack was really the one experimenting on monsters or that actually was Hobbes' job, regardless we know what that turned into - not just the various bodyguards that our scooby gang has encoutered thus far, but the more insidious uses too like the monsters Cuthbert Sinclaire reprogramms or the manipulation of Mrs Butters or even Mary's own brainwashing. Safe to say all this send my mind to Naomi and how heaven has a very similar approach to keeping their angels in check. Fitting then that it's the Winchester side of the family that is MOL legacy with the Campbell side being the hunters family qho tends to go for a more straightforward will just eliminate the threat vibe (more hell aligned u could say). "A lobotomy makes most monsters subservient *wink*" he says and I cannot not be filled with revulsion on multiple layers. Including the actual issue with lobotomies generally and how their extended "use" was due to a fraud profitting off of people... yeaaaa all the red flags with Jack/Porter here. But also in general it goes back to the type of MOL we have in SPN, the exact kind that JAck/Porter is are the ones still alive, who have very little actual care of who they harm in their scientific pursuit.

Clear alarm bells sounding when askes about Henry, he has a very clear tell.

Hint hint nudge nudge about Jack/Porters lack of family

You know the thing that actually annoys me about people like Jack/Porter? The fact that if he'd applied his knowledge to actually get ppl depossessed he could've actually done something helpful, that would save ppl, but nope, instead he focused everything into his fixation and inability of letting go. To everyones detriment.

Well, Roxy's motel room reminds me of several times we've seen Dean in similar places... especially after the Mark got bad.

Roxy breaks my heart. Everytime.

And we have another instance of possession being portrayed as the violation it actually is. SPN had a few moments of showing this, most notably with Sam and Lucifer, but we've rarely had such an indepth showing of exactly how someone no longer possessed is coping. The only other ones I can remember clearly delving into are Jeffrey in s7 and Nick in s14, but in both those cases, Jeffrey and Nick were more akin toa depiction of Stockholm Syndrome or at the very least a dependence had been created having been possessed so long. Which is in itself a bit problematic a message to send tbh, but Roxy meanwhile is the opposite. Not only does she not want the Akrida back, she actively is trying to deny it ever having happened initially and she def doesnt want to be reminded of it.

Ironic that it's Carlos who says the forgetting isnt working for Roxy... considering

I also adore the parallel made between Jack/Porter and Lata in this episode? Like they both have that scientific curiosity that can become really dangerous (as seen with Jack) but unlike Jack, Lata actually wants to help people so she uses what she knows (just as much a type of brainwashing technique as Jack/Porters lobotomy fyi) to offer someone help. But! Lata asks for Roxy's consent and is upfront, where Jack/Porter is lying and manipulating and taking foe himself.

Mary's instant red flag reading of Jack/Porter for the win, but she should've listened to her instincts faster. She believes next to nothing of his words. I love her so much.

I love the round table Arkida scene... its so much fun to watch. Ironic that the Akrida call hunters pests... also yay Dean!

The fact that Jack/Porter is so so pissed off is his own downfall tbh. The bitter comments fucked up his facade.

Tonyyyyy yessss. Also Lata and Tony yaaay

I love how absolutely huge gossip queens both Lata and Carlos are.

I also love Carlos' little notepad during the scene with Roxy.

The description of her possession is way to visceral fuck I fogot how hard to watch this was. And how much it echoes to asault. Not even echoes tbh considering we have a clearer scene relating to sexual assault when Jack/Porter tries to have Dorothea possess Mary so thw comparison of possession to assault is very much there this episode.

Wonder if Jack Wilcox defected to the Brits in SPN? And began what would later be Lady Bevell's expertise? The fact that he even put on a British accent def is meant to remind us of Bevell and the Brits.

God Mary and John are obvious af that they suspect shit ... ffs kids!

Carlos continues to be the one that actually uncovers key info.

Aww, Carlos and Lata are so so kind and comforting with Roxy. I love them so much.

Im so proud of Roxy, but what I genuinely love about how the ep was written is that even if she'd have gone along with the erasing of her memory, it still would've been a valid way for her to move on. Like this it obviously works two fold in somewhat convincing Carlos they also should take a leap of faith that alls gonna be well with Anton, but its set up in such a way that regardless of Roxy's choice at the end, Roxy's own wellbeing was all that mattered however that looked. I can appreciate the nareative not ramming a specific interpretation down our throats.

Ah, yes, wartime decisions excusing the means... it nearly never actually applies tho, Jack. Tho I will say it's very satisfying having it be said to John who in SPN would use this exact rethoric for a while slew of shitty choices.

Now I wont get into the whole issue with the golem being used in this ep and specifically how they kill the golem - others have said far more better informed stuff on it (shoutout to @endofthebookpod fantastic episode discussion) and I do have a plethora of issues with it - what I do wanna say on the subject tho is that at leasr insofar as Jack is concerned it makes sense that he'd steal and use a golem for his own benefit (similar to how the nazi did in 8x13). The actual problem with this is how the writers chose to tackle dealing with the golem here. Because ultimately the golem is used as a weapon by Jack, just as all his lobotomised monsters were. But the ep chosing to not clarify a few things and deciding to burn the golem??? Not good fellas, not fucking good at all.

I do appreciate John's resilience in fighting the golem tho.

Like I said, the sexual assault parallel to possession is even more clear when discussion Mary's possession.

Gruesome death for Jack tho, I will say.

"Things we do for love"?!?! John Winchester I will murder you! If Mary doesnt do it first for u even suggesting that. I do apprwciate still seeing glimpses of SPN!John even now, 10 ep into it. Because for all that people can change, its very very hard to do so and its a slow process.

Thank you Mary for shutting it down immediately. High hopes that this low key promise they made here spells good things for their future. I do hope.

I also love that Lata explains why Roxy wanting to erase her traumatic memories isnt the same as Carlos avoiding dealing with his intimacy issues. But I also love that Carlos feels safe actually confiding in Lata, for all that they banter and shit talk they're each others person.

Perfect timing on the Tragic Haircut lady. Also yea, it def is a tragic haircut.

Noooo, Akrida!Kyle is here. Using Johns past against him is smart but also i need to read that file.

I will say, I never read Millie at the end as believing that John did anything like Ive seen in a couple of other places mentioned. I just saw it as her being a. Shocked about a dead body b. Shocked about John holding a dead body and c. The police being on her heels with john holding a dead body.

But that's all for today folks. Next up, ep 11. Slowly but surely making it through the show.

[rise-my-angel]

I thought Alaric was Alysanne’s cranky old grandpa figure because he was older than her and everyone thought he was too strict and wanted him to maybe chill tf out a little bit. She seemed happily married to her nerdy husband

They reminded me of Daenerys/Barriston and Harrold Rhaenyra, literally just a gruff and protective grandpa figure

But everyone seems to think Alyssa is their secret bastard🤷🏻‍♀️

Alyssa being their secret bastard is dumb. We can see with Jon Snow and other Targaryens born with blood of the First Men, that the blood of the First Men takes precidence over the Targaryen genes. If Alyssa was Alaric's secret bastard daughter, she wouldn't look just like all of her other siblings who were full Targaryen.

Alaric and Alysanne weren't even that chummy. He was not happy to receive her in Winterfell at first, and only after some time there did he warm up to her because she was a charming woman. She was closer to his daughter Alarra then she was Alaric. Alaric didn't even come with her when she toured the Wall. Jaehaerys finally arrived in Winterfell to continue the progress trip, and she left to tour the Wall, and hold her famous women's courts all over the North without Alaric with her at all. Most of her time in the North, he wasn't even with her.

She was the one who made the choice to expand The Gift for the Nights Watch, and even though she convinced Alaric to concede on it being a good idea, it actually was a deep resentment towards the Targaryens brewing in the Starks because by doing so, it took land away from the existing Northerners which the Starks were not happy with. It was a big contributer as to why the Starks did not side with the favoured heir at the Great Council of 101 in Harrenhal (the Starks supported Laenor Velaryon during the final vote not Viserys which Jaehaerys and his council were favouring to win).

They were friends at one point, and it's easy to see why as Alysanne for all intents and purposes seemed to be a smart, forward thinking, productive woman who made the absolite best of her time as Queen consort. In fact, despite my dislike for Jaehaerys, I think Alysanne was probably the best Queen Consort the Iron Throne ever had. So, its easy to see why people like Alaric Stark liked her, but they were not consistent friends and they had problems throughout their friendship over the years which does not conduct itself well to an affair.

Alysanne also would simply never have an affair. She took her role as Queen, wife, and a mother extremely seriously. The reign of peace Jaehaerys saw was not due to him alone, it was also significantly due to Alysanne taking her duties seriously and utilizing Silverwing to the best of her ability to travel around Westeros personally.

She made weaving the houses of Westeros into a strong interwoven social thread one of her biggest importances. She would famously go to towns and hold women's courts where she would personally speak to, hear from, and see to the issues and plights of women all around the realm. She even went to Mole's Town and held a womens court with the whores of the brothel there because she took her duties that seriously. A woman that dedicated to her role as a Queen is not having a clandestine affair with a major lord and the Warden of the North.

I don't think Jaehaerys ever understood nor respected how important Alysanna was to his success and legacy, but that doesn't mean I think it makes sense to take shipping her with Alaric and twist it into some fandon theory with no basis in reality.

Not everyone is smitten with the Starks. Most people aren't smitten with the Starks, actually. And Alysanne would have no reason to view Alaric Stark in any way close to the way she views her husband.

i watched gossip girl and i liked it for the most part. didn't care for some of the characters or plot lines but it was overall not that bad. would i rewatch? probably not. then i started pretty little liars since it was another i had heard about but never bothered to watch. well i'm halfway through season 3 and i skip aria & fitz's scenes cuz i really just don't care about the relationship and lost all respect for both of them. he should have ended it as soon as he realized she was his student and through all the drama and turmoil her friends are going through, aria only whines and complains about the inappropriate relationship then gets mad at her parents when they disapprove. like what tf did you expect???? then trying to use her parent's relationship issues against them because her dad wanted to send her away? wtaf how am i supposed to root for this character or relationship when this is what i'm given???? not to mention the stupid love songs that play in their scenes like this is just a normal ship with some difficulties and it's oo so exciting that it's forbidden. sorry no he should have been arrested or fired or SOMETHING! the mystery kind of makes the story interesting i guess so i'll keep watching it but it's giving me the urge to shit post each episode like i did for Legacies. i like mona though, she was a good twist villain and i didn't hate the reveal. the story has some weird af continuity issues though, and pacing. like hanna breaks her leg and has a cast for like a week then is fine? no crutches no smaller cast, nada. my sis broke her leg when she was 2 and had 2 casts that she called the Barney and Baby bop casts because they were pink and purple and she can't do sports very much which bummed her out because she loves soccer. yet hanna has no problems whatsoever or any kind of recovery..same as the wound on her thigh that wren patches up. idk maybe i'm too critical but it's hard not to notice plot holes that are at times glaringly obvious.

Last Line Meme!

Thank you @bluemartlet for the tag <3 I love memes like this!

And that, subtly but surely, made the Matrix deep within Optimus’ chest feel a warmth and security he had long been missing.

From Twisted Legacy Chapter 25!

And I’ll tag @secretlystephaniebrown and @a-taller-tale if they’re interested in doing it~

[notllorstel]

hear me out- claire and don are experimenting to make a formula that'll grow his glorious hair back but spill it on hersh instead. see: froshel 2.0, now with 10x more fluff

and rob the chance of Don having a full head of hair

even if the formula only lasts a week

side-effects: Dehydration, temporary memory loss, fatigue and head itchiness. Formula scraped.

No mercy for Hersh's hair in au.... WELL... There was no mercy for Desmond’s hair in canon. 

If it spilt, some probably just didn’t get on his head and...... *buffering*...  and that’s how we got here :3

With a change of glasses and wardrobe. Hersh doesn’t appear for his lectures for a week. Instead Professor Niles Pumpernickle subs in. It’s easier then explaining ‘this’ whole look.

[todayisawthewhxlewxrld]

Lol time for another spastic episode of “how tf are u not mentally ill⁉️” where I tell u abt my ocs and u question what sane person has these kinds of thoughts 😁😁😁

SELF INSERT TIME!!!!!

we’ll start with ye olde me being reborn in mha in the 1600s with vampire powers (can u tell how badly i want lilia’s aesthetic from twisted wonderland 😩😩 gothic victorian arc when 😫⁉️) and of course because i can’t live without it: the trauma of being burned at the stake cuz ur so called friend outed you to the church thus rendering u to live in the woods for a couple centuries until u can flee to japan ☺️

nice lil zesty shot of the trauma *jazz hands*

entyhosen fast forward a bit to where i am adopted by a widowed elderly woman who leaves her little house to me in her will (after helping a bestie forge her documents ofc) and i now go under the name of dorothea hanamiya 😋😋

fast forward again to when the shigaraki brothers move in next door and i befriend yoichi, the younger brother. he’s the first person i tell my vampire secret to and we both agree that his older brother never finds out lest he exploits it to use me for personal gain. i become an inside woman for the OFA users by listening in on the gossip in the local library (cuz who would suspect the librarian 🧐) to see where AFO’s next move is. fast forward yet again to when yoichi inevitably dies and i promise the 2nd user while at his grave that i will help keep the legacy alive by any means necessary. another fast forward to when aizawa is a student at ua and i finally decide to enroll to get combat knowledge. i fly under the radar for a good couple of months until nezu calls me into his office cuz he’s suspicious abt my identity. we banter for a bit until he figures out i am a vampire which then has him scrutinizing me for a while. it takes a meeting with him and all might where i finally reveal the truth abt AFO and OFA and how i’m helping to achieve yoichi’s dream (at this point ive already mentored all might for a good while). after that he finally lets me be. then uh oh aizawa angst cuz i accidentally befriended the rooftop squad and now have to suffer yet more friend deaths❓❓ truly a travesty ☹️😔

final fast forward to present day where i am now a pro hero and ua’s history teacher so that i can help mentor midoriya in his combat skills as well. i go by Cleric on the field and Hanamiya Sensei in the classroom. that’s all i got so far.

also me with and without glamour (severe burn scars and horrendous sleep schedule)

personally i’d have to kill that “friend” i just would not allow that disrespect BUT OMG UR SELF INSERT SEEMS SO COOL I LOVEBTHE VAMPIRE POWERS 😍😍😍

The funny thing, for me, is that this is a Vampire-Hunter-Lesbians-meet-Romeo-and-Juliet show and the stuff that hooked me most was the side, family plots.

Don't get me wrong, i was there for the gay ass lesbian hunter and the gay ass lesbian vampire who feel for her, bc damn, right? But then I got the 1) soundtrack and 2) badass, stylish, bitchin families that came with them, not to mention the drama in said families.

I was feeling every song, every Eleanor (is that her name?) outfit, every look from Juliette and Cal and every bit of sibling bickering from Theseus and Apollo, not to mention the moms.

I never cry hard on a first watch of a show, but this got to me. I first cried when Sebastian was dying and Margot was ready to go with him and i broke down when Theo turned. The whole mother that refuses to let her son die thing always gets to me.

Also, i was so on board with all the sappiness of Cal and Jule's forbidden love... Until I wasn't, bc it became too cheese for me and the only moment that I went back was when Cal ended everything...

And the finale sucked ass. Who is the witch? Why is she there? When know her name and that she's with Oliver, but why tf? Also, Oliver being the one to blame for everything.

I thought Talia (is that her name²? I suck at names) was leaving Theo at Margot's doorstep, not Oliver. That boy is insane.

Really wanted to know how they do to kill Legacies (even tho i assume they just need to kill the snake, which someone said it was their source of power there at the beginning). That's one of the answers that won't have an answer due to cancelation? I guess? Hope Google's wrong.

Also, wtf was up with that whole sisters Eve and Lilith fucked under a pear tree story? That's a twist i didn't see coming. Also didn't see Eleanor causing Theo's "death". Was really beginning to ship Eleanor and Apollo, since they were actually kinda alike.

I'm so fucking tired rn
