For the OC questions; 3, 15, 22, and 37 for Dawn <3

Fifty OC Questions

Ok I'm putting this under a read more because I rambled way too much oops.

How does your OC feel about their birthday?

So I went with the 28th of December for her birthday, thanks to your help! Honestly, probably more positively now than when she was young? With it being in-between Christmas and the New Year, she never really expects much attention anyway. It always felt more like a obligation from her parents when she was younger, so she appreciated whatever she could get.

It was when she reached her teens, that she noticed how the people around her spoke to and about her differently than they used to before. All the talk of womanhood and expectations got worse with each year, and made her dread her birthday. Back then, the main person who was able to make her feel positively about her birthday was Gator, even if it meant they sometimes had to sneak away to celebrate.

It's only after she leaves, and lives with a more supportive family, that they start to encourage her to celebrate her birthday properly, even if she still doesn't expect much attention.

What item does your OC hold most dear?

Well there's the St Jude necklace she's had since she was thirteen (that has likely had to have the chain replaced a couple of times by now). I also think there's a good chance that back when they were dating, Gator got her a necklace with a bird on it that she used to wear all the time too. I think she would have taken that with her when she moved away too, trying to hold onto a scrap of hope, but I think after a couple of years, it probably ends up hidden at the bottom of a jewellery box. (Although it absolutely finds its way back to regular rotation after everything at the ranch) I don't think she was able to take too much with her when she left, so she had to prioritise necessities more when it came to packing, but I know there was more I was thinking of before that I frustratingly can't remember now. I think I'll be coming back to this answer and adding more when I can.

If your OC ever got the chance, would they go back in time? When would they go?

I had a feeling you would ask this one, and honestly it's a complex answer? A sort of yes and no? I assume we're talking about in their own life, and I think for a long time the answer would have been yes, and perhaps unsurprisingly she would have wanted to go back to the last time she spoke (or rather, argued) with Gator, the week before she left. She would always wonder if there had been something she could have said or done to make him come with her instead, so that's why she would have wanted to go back, to try anything to convince him.

Though when she got older (and obviously goes through therapy etc), those stronger feelings would fade, and she would think it was for the best that she left for her own wellbeing and that she didn't really have a choice? And honestly, even after everything that went down after they met again, she wouldn't be fully sure of her answer but she would lean towards no, because she feels that now due to her own experiences and her job etc, that she can help him more now? But obviously she'd still wish he didn't have to go through all that.

So I guess it depends how old Dawn is when the question is posed to her :P (If we're talking more general time travel, I don't think she would want to go back in time. If anything, she would want to see the future, in the hope that life would be better for people.)

What part of yourself do you love in your OC?

This is the toughest question I think! I guess the first thing that comes to mind is the idea of wanting to help others where I can? (And how that comes through with both of my OCs, just in different ways) The other would probably be that for obvious reasons, I'm not much of a physical person, so I have to use my words wisely too, especially in regards to fighting back or conflict resolution and all that I guess. So that's why it just felt right to go down that route for Dawn too?

I love how intricate asexuality can be. No sex at all? Sure! Just want to watch? Brilliant! Only comfortable with topping? You go girl! Only rarely feel aroused and when you do it's very touch and go? Wonderful! Kinky but not in a sex way? Coolio! Queerness is full of nuance and people are complicated and things never live in a vacuum!!

Y'all, saying that cartomancy is a "closed Romani practice" is like saying money lending is a "closed Jewish practice." Cartomancy was a practice that Romani people were forced into due to discrimination.

Ettellia said he learned tarot from Romani people who brought tarot from Egypt. He was lying to make tarot sound more exotic. Europe was in the middle of egyptomania. There is literally no historical evidence that this supposed origin is even slightly true. Europe has had cartomancy since the Roman Empire.

Around the time that tarot divination was being invented, tarocci decks were fairly new. If there was a "traditional romani cartomancy" method, (which even Romani oral histories do not support) it almost definitely would have been based on the massively more popular Belgian-Genoese pattern deck, not the tarocci deck.

NU UH

Jack Fenton, dialed his younger sister's phone number as he gazed apologetically at the family of bats, that was hanging around in his living room. he impatiently waited for the other party to pick up.

The Bat family remained stoic as they observed the man, they had or Batman had ordered to put the call on speaker, if ever the phone was answered, Robin had stared at the doorway leading to the kitchen there stood Jack's supposed oldest daughter Jazz. who only stared amused at her father's antics much to Robin's confusion.

finally after a grueling 10 seconds wait, the call was finally answered.

Robin held his breath awaiting for the voice he was expecting for.

"Yes, Ahki?" Talia's voice resonated, from the phone. making everyone's eyes except the Fenton family widen.

'what? mother never told me she had a brother.' Damian thought as he took a peek at his father's face who was scrunched up in confusion. same for the rest of his family.

"Talia, my dear ukht, I've heard from a few birds and bats that you have taken my son. on his fieldtrip." Jack said, his nervous and outgoing personality vanishing and what took place was a serious and angry tone of a father as soon as heard the caller's voice, making everyone in the room shudder at the sudden cold atmosphere while the oldest daughter remained composed and unbothered as she watched.

Silence came from the other side of the phone, before answering "It seems i have." Talia answered back, you can here the voice of a boy in the background asking if it was his dad.

"Stop with this false innocence of yours, bring my son back immediately, partly alive and safe." Jack stated, much to the Bats and birds confusion.

Silence once again, as the phone remained quiet seemingly put down on a table with a few whispers and shuffling. before it was picked up once again.

"Nu uh." was the only thing Talia said as she hang up.

everyone paused.

"The fuck you mean 'Nu uh'?!" Jack yelled, at his phone. While his wife walked their daughter's side who was laughing her ass off, confused she looked at the bats then at her husband and then just sighed.

"Dinner's Ready." she only said as she retreated back at to the kitchen.

Fwoom (intimidatingly)

[supernatural-case]

it is just insane to me that in every moment, every awful, terrible, painful moment, cas was in love with him.

and not only that, but even in this moment —

cas won’t fight back. he won’t hurt dean, even if he’s barely dean anymore.

cas is still thinking — still beautiful. still dean winchester.

[kermit-coded]

thinking about how both kristen and buddy died so easily. how they were treated as disposable sacrifices by both their church and their god and their community. thinking about "helio wouldn't have let that happen" and thinking about kristen dying on the first day of school despite being the chosen one. thinking about how the religious conservatives are always the first to cry "think of the children!" and then being the ones to harm their children the most in the end.

Imagine being at a Fig and the Cig Figs concert. They just finished an epic rendition of "Burn Towns Get Money". After a beat Fig walks up to the mic. You start to notice stage hands wheeling an excessive number of cymbals onto the stage. You're buzzing, you know what's coming next.

You hear Fig's voice call out "For this next song we're going to need some help." And stepping out from back stage is a SECOND Gorgug! The crowd goes wild. This is the moment everyone has been waiting for!!

The first Gorgug proceeds to double in size while the second Gorgug shrinks. The massive Gorgug then places the small Gorgug into a baby carrier strapped to his chest and they both take their seat behind the drums.

What follows is the most hard core, rebellion and rage fueled performance you have ever seen. You have just been blessed (by what? Who's to say) to have been able to witness the masterpiece that is "Dawn of Justice" live!

once you're stripped clean, what's at your core?

Tagging @jennathearcher because we decided to see what we both got for the OCs so yep

Jen:

rippling sunset you’re the nicest person i’ll ever meet, probably. with an undying passion to protect those who can’t protect themselves, you’re energetic and bubbly to a fault. it’s cute, watching you run around trying to tie up loose ends. i feel bad for you — out of everyone you know, you probably have some of the deepest trauma, more than anyone’s aware of. this isn’t something that you want attention for at all, and you’d really just rather forget it exists at all… even then, it seems like you can never escape it. i wish you a pleasant rest of your life, full of rippling sunsets and free of prying eyes.

Dawn:

flightless bird the thought of your found family is what motivates you in your own little world. you touch the clouds, and the soil gives way under your footprints… this is utopia. if you were to erase one thing, it would be your memory. experience is important, but ignorance is bliss. identity, in heaven, should give way to happiness. you'd give anything just to sit by the swings and eat ice cream, but this isn't that kind of world. you have to get up and wash the dirt off of your scraped knees. i think you have an escapism problem.
