Adding some difficulty options!

Haven't done a whole lot else this week as I've been distracted by putting together a Classic Traveller campaign for next year. I've longed to play a game set in the Original Traveller Universe but the odds of finding a GM in Adelaide is pretty much zero so I may as well put my existing group through it. We already played a house-ruled Traveller variant years ago that I threw together for my big space game, Turbostellar so they're pretty keen.

Sebastian, wie du dich um mich kümmerst. Kennst mich doch.

I do think it is very funny that even after everything Binghe still stays the demon emperor when personally I feel like he would've dropped it like a hot potato the second he realized he could live out his house husband dreams every minute of every day. Like you want me to believe he's dealing with political drama, paperwork, tributes, feasts, and all that King Shit when he could be escorting his husband to see every monster he's ever read about? cmon

Moze x Jiaoqiu

word count: 900~

description: just mozqiu being domestic (pre-2.5 events)

moze is the type of husband who always cleans, keeps everything neat, he will run (quite literally) anywhere and do any errand without complaint, nothing is too hard or difficult for him. he is v protective, „I promise I will bring him back“, nothing is stopping him from getting his husband back, he is confident in his abilities, to the point he isn't even worrying. he always attentively listens to jiaoqiu’s ramblings, his full attention on the foxian. he will eat anything jiaoqiu puts before him, no matter his preferences. uttering simple praises after the meal and never letting his husband clean up.

at night he cuddles with him, being the big spoon, holding his husband close, face buried in the orangey pink hair. like a touch starved kitten, he gravitates to him during the day, always hugging him- backhugs are his favorite. jiaoqiu always smiles, a sparkle in his eyes with each embrace. moze is often quiet, very thoughtful- usually ending up blunt in his words but not cold, never cold. the care and love for each other shown in the soft words, gentle embraces and lingering gazes. moze doesn’t do causal touches, his hands don’t wander to jiaoqiu’s soft tail, or even softer ears, or to caress him. he doesn’t want to overwhelm his husband or make him uncomfortable. yet when they stand close he bumps his nose against his. and when he is so so tired he rests his forehead on the shorter man’s. recharging, seeking comfort, love. luckily for him, his husband knows his main love language is physical touch. jiaoqiu bringing his hands to cup his cheeks, thumbs caressing the rough skin. he misses the smile that brightens the foxian’s face, his eyes shut relishing in the sensations. such a sensitive and responsive man. jiaoqiu is the only person moze allows to touch him, to drag those soft fingers across his scars, through the silver hair, to see him shirtless. he is the only one with whom he makes and keeps eye contact. moze is the type of husband that even without being close jiaoqiu can feel his touch on him. sitting across him, over a hotpot. lilac eyes on him. full of love. as if he is caressing his husband’s cheek at that moment. making jiaoqiu’s chest feel warm from the feeling of such a silent expression of admiration.

on the days jiaoqiu voices that he feels tired a quick response is given in turn “I can carry you.” a blunt, straightforward, and the same offer every time. he is more than happy to carry him + he enjoys showing off for his hubby. not caring for the public opinion or any observers; it doesn’t even cross his mind, jiaoqiu’s happiness the only thing on his mind. sadly, he is always rejected (occasionally making him pout). moze doesn’t even know why (painfully obvious why, the rare blushed jiaoqiu further confirming it). shadows are his safe haven, but jiaoqiu is his peace. they fill each other's needs, like puzzles fitting together, completely domestic in their behaviors; perfect for general feixiao’s safety and well-being. despite working together they don’t get tired of each other. work is work and their house is home.

coriander is not allowed under this roof and no big lights are ever on. when they have guests, jiaoqiu compensates with many small lamps, fairy lights, and a bunch of candles. unscented ones. otherwise, they would clash with the meal. sometimes, jiaoqiu will light a scented candle, but it won’t be lit for longer than an hour, otherwise, he would get overwhelmed due to how sensitive his nose is to smells. moze being the clean freak, and insistent on maintaining really good hygiene and not strong perfumes so he can do his job perfectly would just make jiaoqiu purr if he could. type of husband truly only for him. jiaoqiu is quite a social butterfly and he drags his husband with him, who will grumble a bit and then go along, and behave politely to the best of his capabilities. moze cannot read a room to save his life, short in his sentences and straight to the point despite pondering his words prior, they end up always coming off blunt. he means no harm and what he says is usually of little matter, and none of it holds any weight to him when all he needs is to hear his darling chuckle or gaze at him and all is well in his world. the only result he could possibly ever wish for.

and when they kiss? the lighting and shadow with fire and spice? the I talk a lot, flirtatious, rarely flustered with I listen to you with heart eyes, mainly unaffected but you make me smile. well… they keep it private. such actions feel too personal and intimate for them to be shown in public and given for anyone to see on display. they hold it too close to their hearts, it matters in a different way to them. something near and dear. they won’t be caught showing pda, not even holding hands- well they rarely hold hands either way. it is behind closed doors and in the privacy of their home that their lips meet, and hands wander, leaving soft touches in intimate places that they’d never do in public (unlike many others). it means too much to them.

OG AlCale from Lout of the Count’s Family

Characters: Original Cale Henituse x Alberu (Alver) Crossman

Submission: During the 20 year war of TBOAH, it is fascinating to consider whether the fallen noble (og) Cale Henituse might have interacted with King Alver. It's an unlikely connection but one that is fascinating to consider. They both lived their life as a lie, for dramatically different reasons, and wore opposite masks to face the world with. Alver pretending to be the 'perfect prince' and (og) Cale pretending to be the 'worst trash'. Alver in order to overcome the way his family oppressed him and (og) Cale in order to protect his family. Their similar yet contradicting methods of handling conflict would make their interactions with one another all the more fascinating. Also, Alver is a squirrel and (og) Cale is a dog, let him bark at that squirrel lol.

Additional Propaganda

Fanfiction Recs: (what we lose in the fire) by AKingsAffection & an unfortunate change in genre by abralhugres

GongZhi from The Scum Villain’s Self-Saving System (SVSSS)

Characters: Gongyi Xiao x Zhuzhi-lang

Submission: Look, I know he killed him, but I think their personalities would match well and they'd be cute together. Plus they both like Shen Qingqiu, so they have stuff in common.

[Please be kind and respectful in the notes. Anti-Propaganda is NOT allowed.]

@americasdaughter sent: "Hi, I don't think we've met, but your Cassie Lang right?"

Cassie paused and nodded her head. "I am." She said. "But you have me at a disadvantage if you know who I am, but I don't know who you are." She was just going to assume that she was someone that knew about her because of her dad.

I took what was supposed to be a quick detour to focus on a tabletop homebrew 40k campaign I'm running, making terrain and rules and such. But it's now been six months and I'm completely burnt out.

So now I'm finally back to Ctesiphon. Over the weekend I added some hinting to static mesh materials so they can be ignored for collision. Later I intend to also have separate channels for visibility/clip/bullet-clip etc, but for now it's just "collide" or "don't collide"

I also moved all of my archived code over to git instead of keeping it in zips backed up locally. It totally passed me by that git now does unlimited private repos otherwise I would've always done that. I think the last time I checked must have been the last couple of weeks they still charged for that.

I also added a couple of new textures and statics, especially these fences and railings.

Just amused about that HC floating around that Remus is a profanity omniglot.

This man knows how to say "fuck you" in EVERY language.
