Like physical video games are dying because I've been searching all over the state for a physical copy of Assassin's Creed Odyssey and no one has it in stock. Like the game isn't THAT old...

I was getting thrown off for a bit thinking I'd removed too much conflict from Serot's first life (because you need some kind of conflict for character purposes). But no, I didn't. I just forgot the Anactaci were not an easy order to found. He was a ghul lord first, and ghul lords were deeply mistrusted during his lifetime. Some people even blamed them for the appearance of the kheprer. Their efforts against the kheprer, led by him, were a step toward changing that, but nothing happens over night. Ghul Lords also weren't united; they tended to work alone or with an apprentice.

I mean, Serot had a massive undertaking. He had to unite the ghul lords and keep them united. He had to change an entire culture's mind about necromancy. He was also altering Soshist + Meketi eschatology and funerary rites. Mummification had been a part of their rites for ages but not necromancy or the philosophy he presented alongside it. I can honestly say he didn't even plan for the Anactaci to become part of the priesthood, although he was amenable to it once it was proposed.

He ended up doing a lot more politicking than he'd ever thought he would. He went from a nobody farmboy from some backwater to one of history's greatest icons. I can't even say that Meresankh's support made things easier. It definitely gave him an opening to the halls of power and someone driving him ever forward, but Meresankh's motivations were selfish as well. Not entirely but significantly enough. And anyway, Meresankh needed Serot as much as Serot needed them. Perhaps even more. They were a young, untested monarch who had yet to challenge their regent's power. They needed a promising young hero like him to give them an edge. I'd say they even played a key role in pointing Serot toward the Anactaci joining with the Manthu; that would give Meresankh an ally in the priesthood, further solidifying their power.

Not that Serot is someone who can be easily led. He loved Meresankh. He overlooked a lot of their worst traits because of that love. But, he is a deeply principled individual, and when something rubs against those principles, he does not compromise. He will defend them fiercely against anyone. Which is really what caused their falling out. It wasn't just fear over how influential Serot had grown, although that contributed. It was that Meresankh couldn't control Serot, and their trust issues were too profound to simply have faith in him. They needed control; they needed assurances; they needed safeguards. But, it would never be enough — and anyway Serot wouldn't give that to them. He'd give them a lot but not that.

5 Fics for March

So, since I decided to claw my way out of my writing funk (at least for NSFW writing), I figured that I would see if there were any specific past ideas or prompts that anyone wanted me to write or something new. I wanted to give the choice over, so that I would stop stressing so much about what I should write or which prompts.

SO! I am going to write FIVE fics for the month of March (hopefully).

These fics will be of my choosing, so you can submit multiple prompts and ideas. It will then come down to me to decide which ones I'll write.

I'll try and make a post tracking the submissions, if it takes the whole month to get five (which I hope not -_- )

Now, with all that being said, here are some guidelines, of sorts:

No vague prompts

Check my tumblr archive or ao3 to see what I write

If it is a previously prompt or idea, link it

No gore, super dark, hardcore noncon

No spam submitting the same prompt over and over

Alright! Hope that will kick my writing muse into work!

List of the fics that I have written for this challenge:

1.) To "Sleep" Together (SVSSS, Cumplane, Consensual Somno) 2.) Pleasing the Warrior (FFXV, CorNoct, CorNyxNoct, God AU) 3.) Living Armor & Its Usage (AC:O, Alexios/Kolossus, Alexios/Hermes, Living Armor) 4.) Kitchen Surprise (MDZS, MingXian, Modern AU) 5.) Toys to Test (AC:O, Alexios/Kolossus, Alexios/Hermes)

I'm having a lot of fun with Immortals Fenyx Rising. I think I needed a new cartoon-ish / animated (?) game and I definitely like it. It does make me want to play Assassin's Creed Odyssey though... to continue the Greek Mythology vibe

BITCH IM DOING LOST TALES OF GREEXS WUESTS ON AC:O AND I FIND THE ONE WITH ALKIBAIDES TRYING TO GET HIS FRIEND LAID AND LIKE

Alexios: “I’m a misthios, not some famed lover.”

Alkibiades: “I heard Alexios learned a special healing touch from Lykaon.”

HE KNOWS. WERE WE THAT LOUD BBG? I- Who told him. Like- Alexios is- Alkibiades flirting with Alexios like five seconds after that and Alexios is still reeling from like ‘How did you know I banged the healer?’ And and I-

FUCK
