Wait. I...

I wrote this, didn't I? I wrote about Sebastian getting his fortune told and Welwick told him she couldn't provide any further details because "Matters of the heart are not for me to see"!

In-game, this is the Wizard's line but look look I wrote it in this chapter!

Was feeling a little Sad these couple days so I started writing for fun.

Ended up gravitating back to Kutone and Sebastian. Realized I never wrote a "couple's night out" thing for them so I wrote them enjoying a weekend trip to Ginger Island.

...Man, who am I kidding. I just wanted to write some deep, primal love so I did exactly that. Smut. It's smut. Between Kutone and Seb--

Let me know if you're interested in seeing it. I'll do some light editing before posting it here.

i have suddenly become obsessed with a theme that HoO established but never proceeded to extrapolate on, which is:

You are Percy Jackson, and you have been swapped with a boy who was allegedly everyone's favorite person, but they have decided to replace him with you. They just met you. You stand next to his best friend and the people he's known his entire life. In his home. In his cloak. In his place. They stopped looking for him.

You are Jason Grace, and you have just found out you have a long lost sister who completely replaced you in her life with this girl you just met. Your lives and personalities are mirrors. She is you, living the life you were robbed of.

You are Annabeth Chase, and you have just become starkly aware that you have been inhabiting the void left behind by your best friend's long lost brother. You and Luke were just replacements for him. Now you have to look him in the eyes when he has nothing and know you took that life from him.

You are Piper McLean, and you have just found out your relationship is fake and built entirely on the memories of Annabeth Chase. You have been given a boyfriend when hers has been taken away. You have no idea how much of it is real or not but regardless you feel like if your relationship isn't exactly in their image that you have failed.

You are Leo Valdez, and you have just learned that you are the echo of your great-grandfather. You are not your own person. You just exist to be a mirror of him. A doppelganger. An actor and stunt double facing all the danger he never had to but wearing his face. To be there for his best friend decades later simply because he couldn't. You are playing a role. A seventh wheel and a pawn for a goddess who carefully sculpted your entire life for her own purposes.

You are Hazel Levesque, and the only reason you are alive is because your brother couldn't save your his sister. You are a consolation prize. An apology. Your existence here is misplaced in every way but you inhabit it anyways.

You are Frank Zhang, and you are a shapeshifter. Inhabiting your own body feels strange and clumsy when you could be literally anything at any time. You are anything and everything and live your life with the simple certainty of knowing exactly how you will die.

@happybean17 Is she actually asleep or is she just pretending so someone will carry her?

Echo during his time with the 501st: doing body shots, dancing on tables, blowing things up in the barracks with Fives, creating chaos with Fives, doing keg stands, complaining about them leaving the club “too early” even though it’s four in the morning, being the reason that new rules were added to the reg manuals, generally being an absolute terror

Echo during most of his time with the Bad Batch: tucking kids in, telling bedtime stories, always carrying healthy snacks, in bed by nine, putting people in time-out, telling “kids” to behave, tending to sick “kids”, being the only one to put their foot down and shut down any shenanigans, generally being a mom and an absolute angel (of course this is when he isn’t being the absolute badass that he is and always had been since let’s not forget that he’s an ARC Trooper)

So like most people I had two theories going into this ep about Mother Darkness- either she was Shub or Lillith (or, I suppose, some Harlan Guthrie curveball where she's just not mythos-born at all)

Then the ep dropped and um. "The Witch", "The Shroud", many faces, around since life first appeared, not asleep but active, a hivemind, interconnected physical forms, powerful yet requiring sacrifice from her followers to maintain this form of existence

And I'm like Yidhra??? Yidhra the Mother? The Life-Giver? Yidhra the Restless One, sending her followers forth to seek new blood for her endless change? Yidhra the Dream-Witch? Yidhra the Shrouder, wreathing the faithless in shadow; Shrouder, devouring the errant and hostile ones, Shrouder, who hides men forever??? Is that you, queen?????

There's always the fear of forgetting the faces of loved ones that passed away, but visiting the old camps as John and hearing the echoes of people he knew hurts in a different way.

John may forget parts of his brother, but he'll never forget his voice.

He'll never forget the voices of the people he once saw as a family, for better or for worse, he is haunted by these echoes of the past.

So something I noticed in the Echoes of Wisdom- into the still world trailer-

The room where Zelda finds the 'mysterious sword' that gives her the sword fighter form is the same one where puppet link attacks her

Obviously the large center stone has moved- but the layout with grass and pots, the stairs, and floor markings are the same

The markings on the stones match as well-exactly match, although the center one has moved

So my theory? It is definitely Link's sword, dropped from puppet Link

Go get him girl

Echo checking his comm after a long day of rescuing clones and sticking a middle finger to the Empire:

"Wrecker got stomped on by wild animals and we are trapped in a vault"

"Tech is being mean :("

"I fell down a dark hole and almost drowned, but I am fine, Tech helped me"

"I am stuck with Tech in a dark cave, help mom"

"me and Tech made up, don't worry"

"why are you not picking up"

"We don't have food and Cid doesn't want to help us :("

"I miss you Echo"

Actually what the hell is going on with the sword in EoW. Because I'm getting either "Link's soul has become bound to the sword and his body is an empty husk being used as a vessel" or "This sword is so powerful / magic it shapes the wielder in its image, which is Link."

Comments are full of weed jokes and memes

I just finished reading A drop echos in the hollow, I was in a mood for a Sebastian fic a couple of days ago and I picked your fic on ao3 and I wasn't able to put it down, your writing is *beatiful* and I love how you write the characters, I think your Sebastian characterization is one of my favorite one yet.

I'm bad with words, just wanted tonlet you know how much I enjoyed your fic :)

Eeee thank you for the lovely comment! I know it's been a while since I uploaded A Drop Echoes but I'm still as excited as ever to see readers like you enjoying my work!

(I was so happy I showed off this comment to my sister ehehe)

Comments like these, no matter how old the piece is, are truly the best at lighting a fire in me. That said, I'm working toward bringing something even better to you all, though I can't say much about it yet.

I'll have to release some smaller projects in the meantime!

Have you no dreams, liminal child?

guys guys guys. Echoes by @phantomtwitch is in its endgame arc and i am UNWELL.

It is catharsis and it is loss and it is too little too late. (But also so very much hope and mending and i am AAAAAAAA)

(also. found the first draft of this post and some of my notes about chapter 22)

Echoes is a word that is plural.

just go off part 3, i guess

i thought that the part 3 title was like. a metaphor. well look who's crying now! (it's me. i am crying.)

this is the only hurt/comfort that matters to me. the rest of you can go home.
