Beauty and the Beest Remastered is LIVE

**SHAKES RETURN OF THE BEEST DOGGY BAG OF TREATS**

Beauty and the Beest remastered is LIVE and she is HERE! SHE IS BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER

And that's not all. By popular demand, the original Beestfic - along with the deleted act 9 scene - Have been re-released back out into the wild from the vault for reading! Please mind both author's notes on these fics, and also note the severe quality drop from the classic version. I wrote this a year ago and it is not a reflection of my current skills

A final note chapter has been sent out for those who subscribed to it that also contains an art archive similar to Midnight Menagerie. Any art coming out of this fic from this point onward will be documented on the new fic :)

[magnusbae]

So there you have it guys, we’re 2020 simps it seems >:D

[heliosphere-underthesky]

I'll only consider the answers for this until this weekend!

So for Phobos, I'm planning to draw him with his alt hairstyle (study, so I'll do my best)

For Halley's Comet, I'll be doing a pose study instead

Here's where I will be streaming this weekend, fingers crossed it pushes through!

[loumauve]

the results of the first four polls ( 2016 | 2017 | 2018 | 2019 ) are in:

I did maths for this, on paper, with my calculator, just to figure out the overall amount of votes per song chosen. why am I like this

1st Place

(Don't Fear) The Reaper

2nd Place

Blood In The Cut Head Above Water From Eden Angels Punishment

3rd Place

Anti You

I guess I'll make a final list once the other polls have run through. ( 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 )

Fang Fest 2024

EDIT: Apologies! The first image I made for this had the date wrong. it's fixed now, so please reblog this version. Thank you!

Hello Tumblr Vamily! first of all, thank you to those who participated in the Fang Fest poll(s) I posted. I read all your tags and comments and I decided to go ahead with this year's Vampire the Masquerade Fang Fest!

This year’s theme is “Tarot.” These prompts are intended to inspire fanart, fanfic, and other pieces of fanwork. Anything you wish to create and share with the vamily is very greatly appreciated!

The Fang Fest will run from June 1 - 22, 2024.

Each day, starting with The Fool on June 1 and finishing with The World on June 22, post whatever fan work you've made inspired by the Tarot card prompt (eg. art, fic, gifs, poetry, music playlists, mood boards, whatever). Please include the hashtag #vtmfangfest24 so they can all be collected here. I know there are a lot of prompts this year compared to past years, and if you can't think of anything for a particular prompt, or are otherwise unable to finish, it's perfectly fine to skip it.

Those who are not taking part in making fan work are encouraged to like, comment on, give kudos, and share their favourites! Collaboration is also encouraged, so reach out to your fellow Kindred and see what you can come up with!

Another list of the prompts and their general meanings will be available under the cut. See y'all in June!

[bl-bracket]

Congrats to Winner from Pit Babe for winning Least Rizz in a BL!!!!

Well this was an interesting bracket! I'd like to give a special shout out to the person (can't remember who it was sorry) who when the poll for the next bracket topic went up, wrote in the tags "least rizz so that winner can finally win something." this one is for you it's literally been in my head the whole time lol. Winner has finally won something and that is having the least rizz in a BL (well... at least it's something for him!). A fun fact is that when making the bracket winner photos, I save them as "[character name] winner" so I got to label this as "winner winner" which was fun for me :)

We also had a loser bracket! Su She from The Untamed ended up pulling through and winning that!

The real question is: is it more or less rizz to lose in a least rizz competition?

Anyways stick around for the next bracket!!! Thank you everyone for participating and I hope to see y'all in the next one!!!!!

here's the full image for the main bracket:

(putting it down here because it was confusing people in terms of the loser bracket winner which is not pictured here)

[curry-and-gunpowder]

Okay! I would like to run a little experiment. Hope I'll get some participants.

This poll is directed at skk shippers. I've been wondering about something and I'm genuinely curious about your answers. My goal here is just to try and get a better understanding of a thing I don't understand and I want to learn.

So, here's the question:

It would be great if you could elaborate on your answer in the comments. And please only vote if you are a skk shipper. Again, genuine curiosity and no judgement from my side, just a non-skk shipper trying to understand y'all's stance.

Thank you kindly for your participation!

[ultimate-submas-tournament]

Do you like Submas? Do you like polls? Do you wish there was more polls to vote for train boys on?

Then boy do I have the tournament for you!

Introducing the

ULTIMATE SUBMAS TOURNAMENT

Where all the Ingos compete to find the best Ingo, and all the Emmets compete to find the best Emmet- and then they duke it out!!!!!

Come explore this melting pot of different AU creations from across the website- including your own!

That’s right! You too can compete in this for fun event! Get yourself out there!

Here’s the rules and how to sign up:

1) No bl///shipping AUs or bl///shipping blogs may enter. This is a platonic only submas tourney.

2) No NSFW 18+ AUs or NSFW 18+ blogs may enter. I want this to be welcoming to younger folks to so I’m gonna have to draw a line here.

3) You can only enter your own AU. You can share this post with other submas creators, but you can only personally enter AUs that you have made content for.

4) You can only enter AUs that have content made for it. It doesn’t matter if that content is a fic, a few drawings, or a series of interconnected tumblr asks- as long as there is content you can link me to, it qualifies. 

5) You may enter up to two AUs (one for each brother). This may be lowered to one AU per user if the demand gets too high.

6) While non inc/st ships are not outright banned, AUs must be more than “canon compliant warden Ingo but he’s dating Melli”. Give us something fun to work with.

7) AUs can, and are encouraged to crossover with other content. Cretur AUs are also allowed because turning blorbos into cretur is fun.

8) Only Ingos and Emmets may be entered. We all love Elesa but this ain’t her tourney. (Fusions can be entered, but they will be placed in a fusion only bracket that will not affect the main tourney)

9) Lower your expectations. This is for fun, there is no prize, and statistically you will not win. Please do not whine and complain when you are inevitably knocked out.

10) BE NICE TO THE CONESTENTS. Holy heck don’t make me catch y'all harassing other people for ANY REASON. I will block you. Don’t make me do it.

How to enter:

Reblog this post with 

1) The name of your AU 

2) A link to your fic /tumblr tag /masterpost 

3) An image that you want to represent your AU. (If you have no image, one of my associates or I will draw a simple one- but it won’t be very good and you shouldn’t expect much)

4) The name of the preferred brother you wish to enter (preferred brother may be overruled if the brackets get too uneven)

(If you plan on entering a second AU, you must do these steps again with a second reblog. The first AU you enter will be considered the priority if we get too many entries.)

(Entries may be denied for things like: side bl///shipping accounts, pedo//ilia, harassment or other things in that same vein. They may also be denied for more benign things like, “hey I love you lots but this is just canon Ingo”)

Entries must be submitted by the first of June!! Thank you for participating and ALL ABOARD!

series masterlist | main masterlist

hey lovelies!

soooo this poll has now ended! thank y'all so much for participating - there were 300+ votes which is mind-blowing to me!

mechanic!joel has been the winning uniformed!joel oneshot for this month 😈 my mind is already running wild. also don't worry, paramedic!joel and all others will be coming too in the next few months, they ain't going anywhere hehe.

as a sneak peek, this is going to be a dbf!mechanic!joel just because i want (need) it to be 🤭

joel has been your dad's best friend for forever, so when you take your car to his garage because of an annoying squeaky noise, you kinda expect to get some sort of an "old friend price". but he's got a business to run, not a charity. as part of your deal with joel, during summer break, you're gonna have to work your ass off at his hand car wash side-business to pay a debt your uni student ass can't afford. being your dad's bf, he surely wouldn't take advantage of you. right? right?

well, hope you stick around to find out what happens with these two 👀

[iz-rarepair-tournament]

Well gang, that's it!

303 votes later, the ultimate winner of the rarepair tournament is Tak/Tenn with 56.4%!

Congratulations to the girlies and thank you so much to everyone who participated!

I might do another fast tournament using all the other pairs that were nominated but didn't make it into this round, and maybe for giggles, I can put whoever wins that up against Tak/Tenn, but that'll be way in the future. I might need a lil bit of a break from putting polls together, but I'd love to do more in the future.

Thanks again y'all, this has been so much fun. Big round of applause for the tater tots!

[ultimateanthropoll]

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!

It was a tough battle, a long battle, but the votes of the finals have been counted. It turns out the Ultimate Anthro is none other than...

PERRY THE PLATYPUS!

Thank you everyone for participating in this!! The enthusiasm people had for all these characters was overwhelming in the best way 💖 it was nice to see people coming together in support of their favs, and how the tournament kind of breached containment a lot lol. It was really a lot of fun :3

I don't know if there will be a second run or if I'll use this blog again (it's become obvious that poll running is very much not one of my strengths lol) but everything will stay here to remind us of this insane ride <3

Okii, that's all the corniness out of the way haha, bye y'all!

Lenormand PAC: Messages From the Eclipsed Sun 🔆🌑😎

Sup y'all. Welcome to my lil end-of-March reading! Thank you for voting in the polls for April's next PAC topic for the 1 year special, which will be coming up next. Also thank you very, very much once again for participating in my 2nd tarot game! I'm still answering feedback and I'm glad so many of you enjoyed it as I did. I'm looking forward to the next game in summer (possibly a Midsummer game? 🧚‍♀️🐈🎶☀)

I was shuffling my Alchemy Elements deck and noticed that three random cards I pulled out were from the Sun suit (the four suits in this oracle are Moon, Sun, Star, and Earth). I had no topic in mind, so I allowed different mystery messages to come through. These light messages will be relevant to you as you pass through the new moon solar eclipse and all through the next lunar month.

Pick which one of the three sun cards resonates with you:

Flower 💐 Animal 🐎 River 🌊

Pile 1. Flower 💐

Gratitude, Bird of Paradise, Knowledge; Mountain, Astral Travel, Tower, Promise, Garden

The world outside is calling you, pile 1. You can't smell the roses blooming if you keep containing yourself under the roof. The beautiful days want you to explore and wander like a child discovering nature for the first time. Perhaps there are flowers you've never seen up close, maybe it's been a while since nature gave you new things to learn and marvel. Botanical gardens are filled with surprises, as are concrete cracks in the city.

Your hands seem too easily tied up in the working world, fulfilling task after task as if every day was meant to be the same. I see a person staring outside their cubicle, wondering when they'll find the time to make it to the park. Wondering when they'll be able to go to that fair, or practice surf lessons. Wondering, hoping, dreaming of the day when the walls can come down, and there will be no separation between daily life and the life filled with endless creative possibilities, waiting to be picked and weaved into crowns.

The path is neither just up ahead, nor light years away; it's right in front of you now. Accept the moment you find yourself in, even if it's impossible, because the surprises you are looking for are already surrounding you. It may feel like you have to climb far to see any hope of change, but you're asked to find stillness and beauty hidden within the climb. Even if you're not wandering through a field of wildflowers yet, there may be chance blossoms within your reach. Be thankful for the present peace you find. Ivy wraps around ivory walls; nature will find a way to you.

Wherever you intend to go, you may need to leave behind the opinions of others that don't help or encourage you. Let them have their perspectives, for they have their own paths to walk. You have yours waiting just outside the door. The light outside may overwhelm you, but it beckons you to appreciate what it has in store for you. So much more awaits you. But what you have today is just as beautiful.

Pile 2. Animal 🐎

Balance, Lenten Rose, Insight; Letter, Mirage, Heart, Bouquet, Moon

I hope the sun brings you brighter days, pile 2. There are friends (including animal friends!) who want to bask under the warm luminous skies with you. This time encourage us to stretch our arms out, walk with an extra skip, and enjoy what tomorrow has in store. However, there is anxiety keeping you held in, preventing you from racing ahead. You are being called to expand, move your body, and find ways to embrace joyful freedom more.

Before email and mail trucks were a thing, we had pony mail, which could take weeks to arrive to your mailbox. The information you're receiving doesn't match up to the reality you're soon living in. By the time you're reading the newspaper you have, another one will be on its way, contradicting the one in your hands. Reading over and over can help us feel ready to take on the world, but does it? Or is it keeping you in a loop of confirming news that confirms the news that conforms to the news you're expecting?

Newsflash: the most important place, the space that occurs before it's recorded in the papers, is the place your attention should focus on. If you can meet up with your friends in person, try hanging out with them outside of chatting online. Allow yourself to experience life alongside someone, to feel the wind in your hair as they drive; if you have a pet, spend an afternoon with them on a long walk. A friendly person who can help you desires connection.

Life is a mix of bright and sunny days, mixed with cloudy and rainy days. There are days to be serious and days to be goofy. There are times to stay at home online and times to go out with others. There are moments to feel sadness and worry, and moments of humor and happiness. Take it easy on yourself, pile 2, and whatever topic has you fixated on it, allow yourself the chance to step outside, walk away, and feel the light of the sun and moon on your face.

Pile 3. River 🌊

Desire, Cyclamen, Reminiscence; Tree, Protection, Animus, Star, Crossroads

It's okay to not know everything about your path ahead, pile 3. You may be figuring things out as you go along, without any set marker. You're being reminded that whatever path you take, things will turn out okay. Many twists and turns can make a long river, but you will be prepared. It's safe to keep moving in the flow with the currents. When the rolling waves seem slow and steady, it's best to ride along with it, for you have more time than you think to row through.

At times you may desire to keep your boat docked, unable to leave the shore and its many amenities. You may look back on what you used to love (or perhaps found addicting) and wish it were easier to wave it away. Don't be afraid to take souvenirs with you, to remind you of the good times you had. It'll make the transition smoother for when it's time to depart to your next destination. Big changes often require carrying things lightly.

Your north star is shining its beacon out to you. To find it, you must make it; to make it, you must find it. You must set your course by getting clear on where you most want to go. No one else can make this choice for you, for it's your unique trip. The map is with you, provided to you by years of experience and growth. There may be many different distractions, and it's okay to stop to them first just to explore instead of making it to the end goal right away. It's all part of your grand adventure, and the many secrets and surprises make it all the more exciting..

When there's a wish, there's a way. You have the drive within you to set sail towards your greatest yearning in life. Even if it doesn't seem it, you are able to channel the bravery and passion from within. When the skies are dark and you cannot navigate with the stars, you can look to the light beaming out from your soul to find your own way.
