RPG Character Development Questions!
Trying my hand at making one of these, specifically aimed towards D&D characters but it should also work for other TTRPGs and video games like Dragon Age.

HI THERE ASTRIE!!! I was browsing through ur blog when i realized. wait. i can request mystic messenger stuff???? WOH OMG????
Tumblr media
Well as a die hard Yoosung simp, now i feel like ive been called upon by hatsune miku herself to request a Yoosung x reader where they dye their hair together (oneshots pspsps)
Ive never requested anything from u before, so feel free to decline this! and also. TAKE. UR. TIME. Idk if u know this from how i am on Amia's blog but. IF U ARENT TAKING CARE I WILL BE VV ANGRY >:( SO U BETTER NOT OVERWORK URSELF OR GRGRGRRRR
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pairing : Yoosung Kim x reader
Warnings : n/a (mention of rikas death ig?)
A/n : i actually took my time :') (1 week+) hope you enjoy this tho!! Btw you are NOT the mc and instead a college friend of yoosung.
Tumblr media
COLLEGE was rather… Stressful to say the least, with you entering one of the best universities out in Korea you expected yourself to always do good in your studies and that is what you did. Though, you didn't expect yourself to befriend one of your classmates who didn't really enjoy studying as much which really made you wonder how he even got into SKY University perhaps by luck? But yet you heard that Yoosung got in with a scholarship and is going to be working for the corporate heir Jumin Han, of course silently you did envy him after all being on C&R's waiting list could only be achieved in your dreams..
You didn't expect to be dying your hair on the weekends where you could be studying for upcoming exams, well you didn't really have any choice with Yoosung's constant pleas. You both decided to dye your hair together since Yoosung's hair colour was fading as well,though your parents wouldn't have allowed you to dye your hair they aren't here to nag at you! So why not just live your life without the eyes of your parents?
You were lucky enough to convince your parents to pay for your tuition fees, after all you were a grown adult and should be finding a job instead of asking your parents for money. Though they did pay a crazy amount to get you in here, you still felt guilty for them spending so much on you.
Yoosung's voice awoken your train of thoughts before your vision cleared as you saw Yoosung snapping his fingers in front of you with a worried face.
"are you okay? You don't look too good.. I didn't put any hair dye on your eyes right!?!"
You shook your head before a calm smile on your face as both of you waited for your hair dye to dry, you weren't one for small chatter and often it was Yoosung who started conversations between you both though it was silent between you both it wasn't awkward at all and instead it just added to the calm atmosphere.
"So, how is RFA doing..? Do you perhaps plan on holding another party soon?"
You always refrained from talking about anything related to RFA after hearing that Yoosung's cousin had sadly passed away, comfort wasn't your strong suit but yet you still try and gave him encouraging words. Though you always wanted to attend a party held by the RFA and even if you got the chance, you knew it might clash with your studies after all you had always placed studies above all even when you were in high school. You never really went to parties, instead you were always cooped up in your own room reading or studying you technically weren't a loner. You still had friends but they weren't really in your inner circle and you only interacted with them when it was lunch.
You looked over to see Yoosung ranting about the new member of RFA with stars in his eyes, unknowingly a small smile dawned on your face for some reason your heart was slightly warm perhaps not used to this feeling of someone actually wanting to talk to you though you won't deny it isn't a good feeling.. You had always found yourself smiling and enjoying whenever Yoosung rants about his day or his games, was this what your books.. Call a crush?
Tumblr media
Reqs are closed as of currently sorry! Likes, reblogs and follows are always appreciated tysm if u do any of those!

im saying this as someone deep into horror to where the weird stuff of internet dont phase me, but people have different tolerances to things. whats not scary to you is another person "oh god i cant stomach this". its NOT something to make fun of, ever. i get watching your fav wanting to play something but gotta be prepared for them to say no bc horror is not a genere of game everyones is going to go for, or even WANT to go for. peoples responses baffle me sometimes
i’m assuming u mean general “you” not me specifically “you” bc this was what i was going for but yeah exactly! I… very much can’t handle horror. and I feel like there’s this misconception around horror like “yeah well it’s SUPPOSED to scare you” but like.. it’s also supposed to be fun as well? ur supposed to enjoy urself? but some ppl just go with the first option and recommend horror games anyway (even though tubbo is very like.. Not into them and has said this multiple times but idfk catching streams is difficult sometimes I’ll give ppl a pass on that)
but yeah it just.. didn’t seem like tubbo was having fun (I didn’t watch much of the stream though) and a lot of ppl vouched for the game saying it was good and “not that scary” or “only a little gross” without taking into account the things he’s previously said he’s uncomfortable with. but like.. it’s a zombie story game of course it’s going to have a focus on jumpscares and gross bodies/gore in a way that say.. call of duty zombies wouldn’t
that being said he did open up a zombie game in the first place lmaoo and it is on him to say no ultimately and he didn’t and played like 2hrs of it instead soooo.. but in general I’m pretty sure ppl do this a lot where they downplay how scary a game is bc they want ppl to play it and freak out. this situation didn’t seem like that…? it just more seemed like ppl not being self aware about how scary a game could be bc they personally didn’t find it scary. but yeah idk. the whole culture around horror is fucking weird sometimes
anyway I’ve just woken up and it’s earlier than it has any right to be so please forgive me for any weird wordings and once again: pls don’t reblog this!!!!! this feels like something a bit too negative and I don’t want it bounced around. feel free to uuhh send asks on the topic though if u want

How did I find your blog? I was looking for soft Kuroo content on google. And your soft birthday hc’s for him came up. And that’s also how I found tumblr
What was the first story of yours that I read? That Kuroo piece ^
Roughly, how long have I been following this blog? Well I found that piece shortly after it was posted so…. Around the beginning of December 2019 I think. Got a tumblr a few months later and you were the first person I followed (had you in my bookmarks bar before that! (still have you in my bookmarks bar and when I share my screen in classes there are occasionally questions. I ignore them))
What’s something I’ve noticed about you personality wise? You’re really clever and funny. But you’re also sweet. But because you’re clever you have no hesitation in setting up and enforcing your boundaries, and I really admire that strength and confidence.
Have we ever interacted, either by PM, ask, or in the comments? What was my perception of you? YES!!! PM, SOOOOO many asks, comments, and you sent me an ask. And reblogged it. And I cried. A lot. My perception: you’re lovely and I want to h*ld your h*nd ….please.
What’s my favorite story of yours? Oh how to choose. Firstly, I’m a nb, biracial, bisexual. Honey, I’ve never made a choice in my life. But let’s try here. Anything you’ve written for Tsukki. Literally all of it is gold. Fight me. I was going to write “especially [piece title]” but I LITERALLY CANNOT CHOOSE ONE. Your Bokuto nightmare piece. Your Kuroo angsty fight. Your Tendou dealing with S/O with parents who yell piece. Your Kinktobers. Your Futakuchi and Mattsun pieces. And your Terushima pieces. Ugh. I CANNOT CHOOSE. OH AND YOUR STREAMER KENMA!!!!!! OKay just… all of it. I can’t choose. I tried, and I failed, and I’m willing to admit failure.
What’s a story I’d love to see you write? I don’t want to say this… because it hurts me… but I just KNOW you’d write brilliant angst. Some of my fav pieces of yours are pained beginnings with happy endings. That fight with Tsukki after a bad day at work. The pieces I mentioned above (nightmare pieces and fighting pieces and angsty home life ha.. ha.ha.ha.). That Oikawa one where the reader wakes up in bed without him and thinks he left. You write these gorgeous atmospheres and descriptive, visceral feelings, and if you chose to use it for evil…. You could get evil shit done. You’re SO powerful. So I want to read it… but also…. I don’t. I’d love to see you write ABO like you mentioned a while back or just see you explore a cutesy soulmate AU or something. I think you’d be really good at writing an AU where you hear what the other person’s listening too. I feel like you’d be so good at making me feel something for someone who was in another city. (think this would be cute with Tsukki cos he’s headphones boy, OR terushima because I like the dynamic of someone flirty, who clearly cares about looks, falling for someone he can’t see) ANYWAY….
Favorite pairing you write for?/fav reader insert? Tsukishima x reader. It’s my fav self-ship. (but also Mattsun, Bokuto, Oikawa, Tanaka, and Akaashi because you write them SO WELL!!!!)
Have any of your stories helped me through a hard time? Of course. Your self-harm piece came at a time I needed it. Iwaizumi’s in particular saved my life. But also your Tendou dealing with S/O parents who fight… came right when I needed it. Also starting college… was hard.. And reading and rereading your fluff really pulled me through it.
Have any of your stories hit closer to home? YES (see above).
Do I genuinely like your blog, it’s aesthetic or posts? It’s overall feel? It’s content? Yes. The aesthetic is, ngl, a wee bit basic. But I kinda love that. And the feel? It feels like home. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Your blog is my safe space. So, yes, I love. It’s content? YES. OF COURSE. Your personality probably could have kept me here even if your content was kinda shit, but I follow you RELIGIOUSLY because of your content. So yes. I adore.
Is English my first language? Kinda??? I grew up in a trilingual household so I kinda learned three languages at the same time while growing up. But no, I don’t need to translate it in my head. Because English was one of the three.
Anything I want to share? Yes. Please keep being kind to yourself, caring for your mental health, enforcing your boundaries, loving Akaashi, and just generally being you. You’re so lovely as you are, and I hope you continue grow, but never change. Also I’m sorry about all your work stuff…. It literally makes me feel sick. And I hope you find a job where that’s not tolerated, or that your work finds a better way of protecting it’s employees. I know you know this, but none of it is your fault. I just hope things improve. AND I love you… a lot. And I’m so proud of you hitting 9K and you deserve so many more followers because your pieces are just... GORGEOUS. I can’t wait until I’m at Barnes and Noble in a few years and I can pick up a hardback copy of your debut novel. I’m so excited to say “I knew Em Akaashi (which is your legal name as far as I’m concerned) before she was so popular among the masses.”
so ive been trying to figure out the correct and worthy way to reply to this ask since the moment i got it......because its so fucking sweet and kind and amazing and pure and perfect and i just dont know how to use WORDS to explain the way it makes me feel so.......i will just reply in bullet points in regards to every question u answered to make it a lil easier :D
- the fact that u found my blog on google ....... like this may be odd and a very specific thing but before i made this blog i always hoped that 1 day my fanfic would pop up in google searches bc thats ALWAYS how i found fics when i was reading them religiously and i felt so much ENVY!!!!! LIKE I WANTED TO BE THERE I WANTED MY FICS TO B POPULAR ENOUGH TO POP UP ON GOOGLE.....that may sound very selfish but its true......so thats just very cool to me... :]
- u’ve been here for so long omg 🥺🥺🥺🥺 if anyone in ur classes ever asks jus promo my blog like its nbd 
- thats so sweet what 🥺🥺🥺 i try my best to advocate for myself and be confident for myself.....ive spent far too much of my time being silently uncomfortable because i was afraid of pushing someone’s buttons seeming rude.....but NO MORE!!!! i know what upsets me, i know my triggers, i know what i dislike experiencing, and im never gonna let myself be anxious or uncomfortable for someone else’s sake, esp if theyre being rude 2 me. i would say its less strength and confidence and moreso me attempting to take control of my anxiety in the places i can (aka on the Internet) bc i am SICK OF ANXIETY ATTACKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
- BBY no dont CRY!!!! im racking my brain trying to think of who u are i wanna know so bad so i can thank u personally for being the kindest person in the world n so i can send u more asks >:(........MY HAND IS URS TO HOLD!!!!! dont tell akaashi tho 
- OMG my TSUKKI pieces.....hes so hard to write why ;-; thank u so much im so glad u enjoy my works<3333
- NOT ANGST NOT LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!! pained beginnings to happy endings are my specialty.....IMAGINE me writing a sad ending like i CANT!!!!!!!!! ive only done it a few times and it is so Difficult.....YALL ARE SO LUCKY IM NOT EVIL!!!!!! ive had this idea for an angsty akaashi fic that i think about and write in my head every night before falling asleep and it Hurts and i wanna write it but i also can’t make myself :D ABO would be very fun but i genuinely do not know how to explore the concept while making it feel like it’s Written By Me.....u know what i mean? same with soulmate aus, i really dislike writing them because theyre just boring to me like they all feel the same everything’s been done for them.....which is FINE!!! but i write enough cliche stuff as it is HAHA, a long distance type soulmate au could be fun and interesting but ldr’s trigger me bc of a past relationship so </3 but hey maybe someone else could use the idea!!!!!
- gotta love tsukishima <3
- im rlly glad my writing could be there for you friend, one of the biggest reasons i write fanfic (and write the kind of fics i write) is bc i know firsthand how much reading sweet stories abt ur comfort characters can help u through the shittiest times - i just wanna offer ppl some support and happy feelings and love cuz sometimes fanfic is the only time we can find those things (and theres nothing shameful abt that either if anyone bullies u for reading fanfic i will fight them)
- I KNOW MY LAYOUT IS LAZY AND BASIC AS FUCK AND THAT IS BECAUSE I DO NOT GIVE A SHIT LMAOOOO so im glad u think its ok...... like i dont have the patience to create a fancy ass layout that actually works are u KIDDING ME??????? I COULD LITERALLY NEVER plus i kinda like that its just the basic kinda ugly boring default layout like it makes it simple and easy and i feel like it brings focus to the only thing on this blog that i care about which is my writing, i rlly only care about the content here and not aesthetics jdbljdabsdk that blue background will be there til i Die......i adore u more btw 
- WHOA trilingual what the hell ur so cool tell me more 
- you have my word, friend, that i will continue to do all of that so long as you do the same. take care of yourself, be kind to yourself - i know u can do it, ur so kind to others and u deserve to be kind to urself, too so this is the part that genuinely brought me to tears because *sappy dumb shit ahead* ok look ever since i can remember the one and only thing ive wanted to do with my life is become an author ...... dreams of book covers with my name written on them and words in pages written by me and fanart of my characters and going into my local bookstore n seeing my book there....these thoughts all haunt my fucking brain because i want it SO BAD!!!!!!!! so bad that it makes me CRY!!!!!!!! ive never wanted something more and just!!!!!!!!!!!! idk how much u meant that part but holy fuck!!!!!! i hope so bad that one day i can send u a free copy of my book as a thank u for being the person u are. u have all my love friend, every last bit of it <333333333

MUN QUESTIONS. Q1 :   if  you  could  write  your  character  your  way  in  their  own  movie ,   what  would  it  be  called ,  what  style  would  it  be  filmed  in ,  and  what  would  it  be  about ? A1 : honestly??? i think i would keep it the way it is, BUT i would like to have seen some more canonical information about galo’s family. as of right now, we know that kray saved him after his family was attacked by the burnish. if i were to direct a new movie about galo, i would focus it mainly on his family. Q2 : what  would  their  soundtrack / score  sound  like ? A2 : i think it would be a mix of melancholic music as well as more upbeat stuff. on my blog’s main page there are links in the sidebar to both a soundtrack playlist as well as a pop music playlist; i definitely think it’s fair that a variety of genres would suit him and his experiences. Q3 : why  did  you  start  writing  this  character ? A3 : when i first watched promare, i was instantly drawn to this buffoon himbo. i’ve always had a thing for upbeat, energetic characters who are also quite caring and a bit dumb (which yes galo is very smart but he has his moments). while their personalities differ greatly (despite having the same personality type), he reminds me a lot of lance from vld, who i absolutely adore as well (and i also rp him too oops) Q4 : what  first  attracted  you  to  this  character ? A4 : again, probably his personality. while i’m not as energetic and upbeat as galo and i have a very, very different personality type than him, i feel like i definitely do understand him. i understand why he feels he needs to be overly confident, and i also have my moments where i just need to storm off and be alone. god i could write paragraphs and paragraphs about why i like galo but i wanna keep it short and sweet and just stick with those two points, which i consider to be the biggest points. Q5 : describe  the  biggest  thing  you  dislike  about  your  muse. A5 : look, i know i said i liked confidence, but something about galo that annoys me is the fact that he can often seem too confident. like yeah he seemed pretty humble in that pizza scene at the beginning of the movie, but i can’t help but feel a twinge of annoyance towards people who put themselves right into the center of attention and be all like “yeah i know i’m great.” like my boy i love you but do u have to announce urself every time u appear on the scene??? and pls stop being so reckless u honestly might die too soon one of these days we want u to be around for us to enjoy u Q6 : what  do  you  have  in  common  with  your  muse ? A6 : i definitely feel like we both have our moments where we just need some peace and quiet. of course, everyone needs this, but when galo talked about running off when he was pissed reminded me of me; i tend to go and cool off and vent to myself if i’m annoyed about something. we’re both naturally people-oriented and love to be around others, even though galo likes being the center of attention a little bit more than myself. Q7 : how  does  your  muse  feel  about  you ? A7 : in the sense that if galo were real, i honestly think we would get along fairly well. we have different ways of dealing with things, but we have similar habits and personality traits. however when it comes to rp blogs, while i do like to headcanon things about my muses that mirror my own opinions and beliefs, i do consider the mun/muse relationship fairly symbiotic. we as real people can learn so much from fictional characters and in how we play them, and of course, the mun will determine some things about the muse that will deter from canon. Q8 : what  characters  does  your  muse  have  interesting  interactions  with ? A8 : i just started this blog and have had very minimal interactions, so it’s hard to say ! i’d say that an interaction with a kray muse would be the most interesting. part of me wants galo to forgive kray and to have a better relationship with him post-movie canon, but there’s still so much about galo and kray’s relationship pre-movie as well; what was their relationship like? was kray like a father to galo? how can i describe the psychological mindset that galo had after finding out that kray betrayed him? there’s so much about these two that i really want to discover and look at, while of course providing my own insight (cuz that’s what muns do, right?). Q9 : what  gives  you  inspiration  to  write  your  muse ? A9 : i like to study galo’s actions in the movie, and try to find the underlying cause of the actions he takes. however, when it comes to headcanons, i will often think of a scene or an idea in my head and then internally apply it to galo and see if it works. this is usually what kindles my writing fire: the thoughts that often rush through my head. Q10 : how  long  did  this  take  you  to  complete ? A10 : like two whole days lmao im so slow

Mango - your handy dandy filler inner girl
So. A lot of things happen on our private discord instead of on tumblr. That's because, at least for me, we've all stopped receiving asks. That makes me think all our follows are inactive. That being that, if you ARE out there, and are confused about something, let me know, and I'll screenshot the thread.(With the other muns' permissions, of course!)
Some things are
Many feral frilly moments
Lots of Frilly/Jelly platonic cuddles that got a little very gay
Cannibal got fucking kidnapped
Smoky was adopted by frilly and he called her mom so we all died
Nixie learned what death meant
Lots of gay between Winga and Chessie.
HIM decided to lighten his aura so that frilly doesn't fucking MURDER HIM UNCONTROLLABLY but then actually started developing a conscience and feeling guilty
Guilt made him try to commit suicide via frilly but she was like uh pussy do it urself and abandon ur daughter sure and he was like ok so she was like RYAN! YSE UR SWEET BOY MAGIC and then him was like oh shit i should try a little. Then he was texting and nixie was like hi ilu friend i will help u bc i know you can do it and he was like OH SHIT i can do it! So he try
A good amount of gay between Allen and HIM
Ryan is a sweetie and received a text from god(me) to yell at them to kiss, so he did. They refused. He was like but wait whats a kiss. They were like djdbdjdjdn then demonstrated etc then gay
There was a fucking forest fire and Nixie got one wing scorched the fuck up but its ok bc HIM put out the whole ass fire therefore saving thousands of lives and homes then passed out so nixie napped on him
Gay between Mamba and Nixie
aura??? is fine now??? "Hey frilly come here" "but I'll literally go batshit and kill u" "shhh to test my aura" "k sup oH SHIT I WANNA KILL YOU BUT I CAN STAY STILL AND HOLD CONVERSATION SO YOURE GOOD FAM I HATE YOUR FUCKING GUTS GOOD JOB"
smile is bean
kitten
Other muns feel free to reblog with more shit that happened bc im on no sleep and for sure missed shit

SULLENCHOIR’S RP PLOTTING CHEAT-SHEET
Want new-and-exciting plots for your character? Long to reach out to more of your followers, but don’t know where to start? Fear not! Fill out this form and give your RP partners both present and future all the of juicy jumping off points they need to help you get your characters acquainted.
Be sure to tag the players whose characters YOU want more cues to interact with, and repost, don’t reblog! Feel free to add or remove sections as you see fit. Template here.
Mun name: Andy OOC Contact: Tumblr IM’s, askbox, or discord!
Who the heck is my muse anyway:
Marion Price. Moody psychic, southern gentleman, doll and bug enthusiast, loverboy, redeemed villain, and total mess.
Points of interest:
bioluminescent eyes (like this, but bright turquoise)
telekinesis, pyrokinesis, friend to ghosts, and just a touch of precognition
He’s got a very big personality: the way he talks, carries himself, looks, ect. It’s all with a very particular flair. Very flamboyant. 
He’s not one to keep to himself, and doesn’t know how to stay in his lane
What they’ve been up to recently:
Lately, he’s been baking and trying to pick up drawing after stopping years ago
Going to therapy
Taking care of his rescue dog
That’s just about it, besides blogging, he’s been spending a lot of time in his room
Where to find them:
cafe’s
walking his dog
at the corner store buying cigarettes and snacks
laying in a field
I can give a reason for him being pretty much anywhere I’m sure. Don’t worry.
Current plan:
Working on self-improvement, learning how to take things as they come, and overall better manage himself
Desired interactions:
father figure (that his daddy issues don’t turn into a CRUSH LMAO)
flipside: enemies. Please, I love enemy stuff.
younger sibling figure!! 
just found family in general tbfh
fwb/one night stand
Offered interactions:
any kind of hookup, Mari is very open with this, he’ll even sleep with people that aren’t his type. (in verses that he’s not in a relationship of course)
horror/supernatural themes? Got you covered. Your muse a paranormal investigator? Enthusiast? Mari doesn’t like feeling like a zoo animal, so there’s good room for tension here
Related to the above, your character absolutely can have heard of him and his sister and be a fan of him, or a skeptic!
Current open post/s:
literally any post tagged #on stage ⛤ | ic can count as an open if you’d like, so long as it’s not clearly for a specific muse. (i.e: closed starter, mari is specifically talking to a muse) Go wild, my friends. 
Seriously idc that we’ve never interacted before slap urself right on my ic posts
Anything else?:
feel free to make dashcom on stuff, I love it
even if i followed you ages ago, i’ll definitely still take a greeter if you do them!
I do both online and face-to-face roleplay on this blog, if you only do one or the other I’m still game either way.
I can struggle with plotting rp’s out, THEN actually rp-ing it. I do like discussing how it goes, and then using that as a backdrop for current interaction!
one-liners/asks usually will get answered to way faster than para threads
my time zone is eastern time! I live in Ohio
discord is open for mutuals!
Tagging: stole it, steal it from me ye goblins

GUIDELINES !
─── you can edit it as much as you want, but Never claim it as your own no matter how much you’ve edited it, don’t redistribute, copy, steal or take credit for it !
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW !
─── the dimensions are 1000 x 550 !
─── the psds used are ( cbx by @twikpopsd​ ) and ( 여자들 by @wasirauhlpsds​ ), they’re included in the psd but since you’re going 2 use them, go give them a like or a reblog :^)
─── fonts used are ( hallelujah ) and ( lemon/milk ), not included but i’m linking u to them in case u don’t have them !
─── the polaroids r easy to edit since i added layers for you to use clipping mask with your chosen pics
─── here comes the fun part ! this psd has a Lot of extras, starting with the left side i chose Two guns which u can see on the previews, one is a toy gun of a rly Common model ? nd the other one is a revolver, both w their respective hue/saturation layers. on the right side, since it looked a Bit empty to my liking i made a group with a couple of pngs ( i dn’t hav links to the creators since i’ve had them w me 4 lots of years now, credits to them ! ) i thought fit with the graphic, u can choose one of those Or add ur own Or no png at all ? it’s up to you tbh, they also have their individual hue/sat layers. and Lastly, the main text ( so.... the one tht has my url ! ) can be rotated to go along w the box or not, it may not b too noticeable but the first preview has the rotated text & the second the normal one. i May forget smth so if u see i didn’t mention an extra do tell me ! the renders of seulgi were, of Course, made by me

meta: GODHOOD & ITS EFFECTS
mmm, u can reblog this if u wanna, but @ other gods & divine figures, you don’t necessarily have to Buy Into this concept, this is just what i run with on this blog and with any other figures i write that have ascended to godhood (e.g. like, hades and other greek figures)
i’m gonna try to lay stuff out in simple language that focuses on the sensation of belief and what effect it actually has on those who are Believed In in a literary sense. this bears some similarity to neil gaiman’s + terry pratchett’s concepts of belief in literature but i play with some earthier concepts that are much more based in the telepathic energy + the connection that fosters
this builds on the foundation of my concept of magic within the marvel universe, but to summarize that concept: magic exists throughout the universe, running in rivers across star systems and following, for example, ley lines upon earth while branching outward, kind of like groundwater but in three dimensions. magic is worked by drawing magic into the body (into dedicated “veins”), then running it out along previously laid-out “paths” (spells or rituals) or by utilising a higher telepathic ability to coax the magic into transforming into something else. 
2 notes:
- the word “god” is used to refer to BEACONS OF BELIEF, but the beacon may not be a god. faerie, demon, angel and other spirits affected by the ebbs and flows of belief (vague or not) could be transplanted into this consideration, but on a lesser scale. based on my own philosophy i would argue that a “spirit” is something that comes into form/being as a result of belief rather than ascending to godhood post-belief but honestly, that’s flexible
- this is really long and i’m trying to lay stuff out in relatively plain language for both my own understanding when i read back but also so people can Get Me, but totally feel free to shoot me questions about this because it’s like philosophy in that it’s vaguely scientific sounding bullshit, but can also seem simple to one person and really complex to another from the same angle!
strap urself in and hold onto ur tits, it’s time for ABSTRACT DISCUSSION OF BELIEF AS A MANIFESTATION OF TELEPATHIC ENERGY THAT CAN HAVE A PHYSIOLOGICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECT ON THOSE THAT ENTER INTO ITS COVENANT
                                        WHERE DO GODS BEGIN?
the vast majority of gods exist before they are believed in. that is to say, they start off as figures usually a different species to those they are then worshiped by (although this is not always the case), and then, through a natural process of ingratiation, which becomes demonisation and/or idealisation, which becomes worship. 
not all beings can become gods, and very specific yet often incalcuable specifications must be met. the difference between non-god and god can occur within the space of seconds, and the elevation comes suddenly and impermeably: it is difficult to reverse.
one ascends to godhood by starting off as a figure of renown and high consideration: for some reason, the peoples that look up to them consider themselves separate. this might start off as a separation of class (either with firm boundaries, such as a huge difference in social class, or something like extremely remarkable appearance/personality), then becomes something which is GIVEN AND TAKEN between the god-to-be and their worshipers. 
a god of beauty begins as a figure of renown, to be looked upon with desire and delight: there comes a tipping point where the admirers become worshipers, and the god-to-be allows and welcomes the worship. a goddess of fertility may begin as a mother, but might then render advice or assistance (with magic or otherwise), and then become a figure to be admired... then worshiped. a figure of fire may be feared, even demonized, but then comes the tipping point: this god may be worshiped simply to appease.
make no mistake: when one enters GODHOOD, a covenant is made. the very spirit of that god becomes imbued with power (if they did not have it before) over their sphere of specialty, although these powers can be unreliable and patchy in places, depending on the extent to which different elements of the figure are worshiped. in the matter of apollo, for example, different devotees would examine him differently across the dozens of states in what we refer to as “ancient greece”, and subsequently that would have an effect on how absolute his power would be over particular subjects, perhaps even changing based on his closeness (telepathically, not geographically) to specific groups of devotees.
does this all sound vague??? does it all sound complicated? GOOD. no one sets out to be a god, not at first. and when it comes, it comes all at once.
                               WHAT POWER COMPELS THE GODS?
BASICALLY, it’s telepathic energy. if magic runs in natural rivers throughout the universe, being worked into grooves when spells are used, the channel of telepathic power that runs between god and believer is a groove in its own right. just as the telepathic command of a sorcerer affects the magic to change and become something else, this telepathic energy will affect the very being of the god.
this does not mean a god is controlled by their worshipers. the very nature of belief is flimsy and yet stark and block-like in the psyches of believers: belief is tended to subtle change from one worshiper to another, meaning that when many thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions, or billions believe in a god, they will be different to how they would be if few people believed in them. 
a million believers may believe in some key elements, but others may be subject to change, meaning that the god figure will become blurred at the edges, will have hazy elements where something might be simultaneously true and not true. at the zenith of worship, a god’s memories (and vision of the future, which ill get onto in a minute) will be subject to what its worshipers believe of them, including their base personality, their powers & specialist knowledge & their connections to others.
this state of being, from the belief alone, is confusing and frenetic for some gods, peaceful and calm for others. it depends entirely on what others expect of them. 
                                      WHAT OF SACRIFICE & RITUAL?
energy becomes energy becomes energy: it is a fact of the universe that energy cannot be conjured from nowhere... but it can be conjured from magic. magic, in fact, is a universal lubricant that will serve to allow ONE THING to become another. what does this mean when it comes to ritual?
well, a sacrifice made up for a god is an offer of 2 things: telepathic energy (which in big enough quantities will undoubtedly affect, for example, the power at a god’s disposal and even their latent energy, such as their lifespan) and a GIFT, whether that gift exists in manifestable object/energy (e.g. offering a morsel of food, a sacrifice of meat + life energy, offering a pretty gem) or whether it is representative (e.g. offering a god your artistic thoughts, your dreams, your anger)
so like, this defo applies to loki and the other norse gods of my canon where i envision them as like, feral things at the zenith of belief in them. and that feralness is coming from the fact that you have a lot of people who are full to the brim with energy believing in them (and thus affecting them with similar energy), but also the nature of the sacrifices themselves. 
at the very high point of their worship, loki, thor and the other gods had continuously full mouths. full of blood, of half-cooked flesh, of wine; their minds would be full to the brim with prayers and wishes, askances and considerations. it is a deeply chaotic thing, and the minds of gods must become wider and ever full of other things. 
even if a god keeps up a concentration, settling upon their own lives rather than on the lives of their worshipers, that energy is constant upon them: it is difficult and sometimes painful for a god to turn down a sacrifice or an offer of worship, and it comes with its own psychological costs.
                                                      DESTINY & BELIEF
Magic flows like a river through everything - this includes time itself. although not everything is set in stone, the gods exist along a frame where some parts of the future are destined, are foretold, will inevitably occur.
some of these things are just natural aspects of destiny, but others are more centred to gods in that...
if all your worshipers know the story of the way you are killed, the way you will be killed, the way you were killed, that is probably how you will die. that telepathic energy affects magic, which will affect time itself, and thus destiny. what is destiny but foreknowledge?
and here’s the tricky part. i know that i said before “individuals become gods” and that that’s a kind of ephemeral process, difficult to imagine, except... magic knows what time doesn’t. if you are going to become a god in the future, retroactively you ARE a god now, and you were always a god, and you will always be a god, even when the only person still believing in you is yourself. fun, huh?
so that complex bit of mental gymnastics aside, i want to talk about a concept that’s very central to my portrayal of loki, and that’s FUTURE PAINS. so, imagine it: loki’s like, the equivalent of eight years old, and during a lull in the evening’s activities, when the sun is setting and the magic is flowing a certain way, he lets out a sound of pain, and clasps at his mouth. there is no wound there, and yet he knows that there is a wound, that there will be a wound, that there always was a wound. if he really concentrates, he feels the scars between his lower and upper lips, and if he really concentrates, he can feel the needle that will make them, that is making them, that will have made them.
because of the stream of belief that follows a god in every direction, the scars and the main events they’ll undergo are kind of accessible from all angles, regardless of where they are in the course of their own life: this means that a god will almost always know, on some level (likely deep in their unconscious mind) how they will die. think of it as an eternal sensation of déja vu that you effectively train yourself to ignore, simply to stop yourself going entirely mad.
                             WHEN IS A GOD NO LONGER A GOD?
when they die.
(and even then, it’s flexible.)

advice for uni halls
a post for @godtiers 
disclaimer: i will have been moved in a week tomorrow
stay civil with ur roommates bc arguments make shit awkward as fuck
dont get fucked up everynight even if everyone else is. its a good idea to stay in every other day OR go out and just dont get smashd or dont drink a ton bc if u get absolutely wankered every night ur punching ur immune system in the dick and u will get ill and grumpy and thats how flatmate arguements get started
bring chopping boards and bin bags. in my flat we have like, 5 of everything apart from no one brought chopping boards or bin bags.
BRING STRAWS everyone wants straws
flat parties are peng, go to them if u find them 
the general template for every conversation ive had with new people goes: “whats your name? what course are you studying? what halls are you in? who do you know here?” idk if thats a tip but like ... thats the small talk layout it seems
get ur jabs otherwise u will get sick
sign up with a GP thats close to you! u will get sick no matter what bc ur around like 4000 strangers who are bringing in their germs from all round the country 
do a big shop before u get 2 ur halls, maybe on the way w ur parents? a lot of ppl i talked to, their parents even paid for it which is sick. and it sets you up for a while. 
try to buy staples and not just 40 pot noodles but then again it’s uni so u can buy like 29 bottles of Worcester sauce and no one will tell u its a bad idea apart from urself
get a bin for ur room bc u will not b arsed to walk to the kitchen everytime and ur room will fill with rubbish
join as many groupchats as is humanly possible 
clean up after yourself like the adult ur pretending to be
everyone is a baby! no matter how grownup and mature everyone pretends to be, they are all babies. u r a baby, ur flatmates are babies, everyone on ur course is a baby... No one knows what they’re doing, really, no matter how much they pretend that they do
feel free 2 reblog this if u think this is sound advice

K time for my last message. I get that you think I'm some sort of gold digger but not everyone you dislike is Telly and I repeatedly refused money from you for serious things. You commissioned me and I'm an evil bitch for it? You never were my most generous comm/Kofi and I kept in touch bc we have a common friend not because I wanted your fucking money. Also I'm a hypocrite when you reblog shit abt how fat privilege is gorging urself after using my weight as a bargaining chip in an argument. Ok.
I reblogged that fat privilege post specifically to piss you off enough to make you go the fuck away.
(And it seems like it didn’t work anyway! But it’s not my problem that you can’t let go.) You went out of your way to tell me about how you were unfollowing me because you didn’t like the things I was reblogging, yet you were still stalking my blog. If you really unfollowed and told me that you did so because you didn’t like my blog, then you would have unfollowed, end of. None of this bullshit where you were still checking what I was posting. The only reason you could have for that is that you were trying to use your follow-ship as some kind of leverage against me. Gods know I’ve reblogged far more “problematic” things than a pro-free speech meme, so you’ll excuse me if I think the timing of it seems like you were being a sore loser over how our conversation was going. Frankly, I’m not about that kind of manipulation, so I unfollowed you (and why not push a few of your buttons while I’m at it, since you tried to push mine?) and because I’m honest, unlike you, I haven’t looked back.
I have far more important things to deal with. I have a life and, now, a dog. I have a job, and thus coworkers and friends. You were not and are not, by any stretch of imagination, the only person I post opinions about or have disagreements with online. I don’t know where or how you got the idea that all of my personal posts are, somehow, about you. I really have to wonder what it’s like, being that much of a narcissist.
You thought I was being cowardly for “vagueposting” “about you” (just because you happen to fall into the category of people I described, by the way, does not mean that you inspired the post. Again, it must be so nice, having that kind of ego) and said that if I had a problem with you, then I should just talk directly to you about it. And then when I gave you exactly that, a direct discussion (and I bet you never even read the points that I outlined for you in Discord), suddenly you backed off, saying that you don’t want to be arguing with me forever. You just wanted to say your piece and not have to consider other viewpoints. Who’s the coward here? And you know what? I had the feeling that that’s how that was going to play out when we started talking – that you would get mad about being seemingly vagueposted about, but wouldn’t actually be able to handle anything more direct than that anyway.
I’m not the one out here judging people I’ve never met for traits they were born with and thus have no control over. Being fat, however, is a choice. Bill is living proof of that. He lost some 60 pounds over a couple years and I’m 100% certain he gets less physical activity than you do. Think what you want, but I have nothing against fat people (I’m going to marry one, after all). I have things against people who cry about a problem that they can fix but don’t do anything about, against people who don’t own up to their words and actions, like my ex-roommate and so many members of this website’s whiny, entitled community. So you go right ahead and enjoy being so easily offended that you lose the capacity for rational thought. I’m sure that will work out just fine for you. And no, of course not everyone I dislike is Telly. Telly is not you. Telly is probably better than you at this point. At least he admits when he’s made a mistake.
Now go away. Go be a better human, live your life, and stop trying to be relevant to mine. You are nothing to me.
