the vast aching of his body is the least of his concerns. waking in a strange, unfamiliar room tinted with cool tones disoriented the knight ; his blue eyes glancing around in alarm before coming to settle on an equally unfamiliar woman. she looks kind, and haurchefant almost hears the soft-spoken assurances offered to him. he blinks away the blurring of his vision to get a better idea of his surroundings.

“ i — forgive me, i must have been in a nasty fight prior. “ his eyebrows scrunch together as he speaks, his voice hoarse. something definitely went down, his only inkling being the pain and confusion. why can’t he remember ? it frightens him, despite the brave mask he manages in stella’s direction. at the very least he appears to be safe now — if this is who attacked him, he doubts she would aid in his healing. “ i’m haurchefant. i’m afraid i don’t… remember what happened. what is this place ? “

Oooh for the sensory prompt--The taste of Vodka at the back of your throat?

In love with this prompt!!! idk why but I just vibe with it. I've kind of gone back and forth on Venna's backstory, and this kind of helped me develop it a bit more so ty for that uwu

Word Count: 473 Ship: Venna (KC) x Daeran CW: Alcohol, the brief mention of drinking blood

The clear liquid burns Venna’s tongue, the tingling heavy sensation of it slipping down her throat is so much smoother and more pleasant than the cheap moonshine she’d drink back in Ustalav.  There had been a few other dhampirs back then, ones who’d brewed a moonshine with blood in it for those of their kind who do actually drink it, and that had been passably drinkable, but not quite as nice as this.

“This is good,” she says with a small, subdued cough.  “Where’s it from?”

“It’s a Varisian import, there’s a new artisanal brewery that’s all the rage with Mendevian nobles–I heard they’re having trouble keeping up with the demand, but it’s worth every penny just to see the look on some pompous little aristocrat when they realize I’ve bought most of the supply.  Venna darling, we really need to expose you to more culture.”

Venna snorts, setting her empty glass on the table.  Daeran raises the bottle, about to pour more for her, but she rests a hand on his, pushing it and the bottle back down insistently.

“I can’t, Daeran.  What will people think if they see the Knight Commander staggering around Drezen?  They’ll think I’m a lush.”

“You are a lush,” he replies with a wry smirk.  “Aren’t you the reason that the army has started creating beer elementals?”

“Not the reason, I’m not the one who came up with the idea, I just allowed it to happen.”

The command room is empty at this hour, illuminated by dim candle light that flickers in the crystal glasses and decanter Daeran had shipped to Drezen for himself (that he so kindly leaves in Venna’s care, of course) and populated only by the Knight Commander Venna Neacsu and the Count Daeran Arendae.  The silence of the room is punctuated only by the sounds of the evening outside (in the streets of Drezen), and the heady aroma of roses and liquor.

“I’d love to know my dear cousin’s thoughts on this ragtag army you’ve put together.  It’s sheer chaos, but it works and I genuinely don’t know what she’d think of that.”

“I don’t imagine she’d approve,” Venna replies hesitantly, her smile slowly fading at the mention of the queen.  “But I’m getting more done in a matter of months than she’s managed to accomplish in a century–no offense.”

“Venna,” Daeran starts, chiding her like she’s a willful child.  “I don’t get offended.  Not that easily anyway, my cousin’s a lovely woman but I’m not here to be her knight in shining armor.”

“I couldn’t begin to imagine you in armor, actually.”

He pours her another drink, and this time she doesn’t protest.  She doesn’t think that Daeran would let her stumble drunk around the citadel, but even if he does maybe it’ll boost morale among whatever soldiers catch her doing so.

from the art ask meme: 3, 8, 18 if you please uwu

3. What ideas come from when you were little

I think I can generally blame how much I like and draw fantasy characters on my early exposure to LotR, The Last Unicorn, Dark Crystal, and lots of rennaissance faire? And as far as stuff being very dynamic and dramatic, I can probably trace that back to watching too much Matrix and reading too much Hellsing as a kid. (Yes I was allowed to read Hellsing because I understood the violence as unrealistic and Not A Thing You Would Ever Do IRL.)

8. What’s an old project idea that you’ve lost interest in

I have a lot of old RPGMaker ideas I've abandoned, and comics/stories! One that immediately comes to mind is a story called "Survival of the Fittest" that I started as a kid but honestly that was a knockoff of Zelda and Naruto combined?

Another more recent project was an RPGMaker game called "Volition" that was super based around player choice. I was mostly fond of the main party which involved a loud death knight who worked for the villain, a church hunter, a vampire, and a witch. Needless to say they didn't get along, and they were fun to write dialogue for. Mostly the death knight, who always spoke in third person all caps.

18. An estimate of how much art supplies you’ve broken

OKAY I UH DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE A GOOD ESTIMATE. Well. Uh. Many, many, many pencil tips. And just pencils, like right in half or tore off the eraser. Regular ones and mechanical. Let's just put that at 500 to be safe, since I've been around for just over 2 decades and been drawing my whole life. Plus charcoals for art school, and litho crayons (Call it another 50). I think I might have also broken my portfolio straps a few times too? (Idk 3? 3 Separate times?) Plus some blades for the fine art projects I've done in school. (10?)

So that's at least 563 Art Thingst™️ I have broken. There's likely more since I didn't even get into ink materials or lamps or hard drives. (I have very bad luck with electronic hardware.)

ANYWAY GOODNESS THAT WAS MANY THINGS. UH. I hope you enjoy my wall of text? I tend to ramble with these, but it's fun to get to!

Feel free to send me more asks if ya want!

24. whispering in their ear, lips touching the skin

48. dancing with each other

A celebratory ball has been thrown in Lumine’s honor as she helped save Mondstadt from peril alongside the knights of Favonius. Upon receiving the invitation, you rushed to plan out your best outfit and learn how to waltz. The night of the ball finally comes around and you enter the grand building, capturing the attention of a particular blue haired knight. As the night continues, you find yourself sitting at a table, sipping the bubbly drink swirling around in its tall crystal glass.

Suddenly, a gentle hand comes into your view, catching you by surprise. You quickly look up, trying to see the owner of the hand, and get entranced by a pair of gorgeous gold and amethyst eyes. Her sultry voice floats through the air as she asks, “Care to dance?” Your voice fails you as you simply nod and grasp her outstretched hand. As she escorts you towards the dance floor, she says, “Thank you for accepting my hand despite my reputation. I swear I will seek vengeance upon those who speak ill of you after this.”

As the music dwindles down, the two of you continue to sway together in the middle of the candlelit ballroom. Eula dips down beside your head, lips barely touching the shell of your ear. You feel the soft puffs of air from her lips as she whispers, “Thank you for this dance, darling.” Your heartbeat stutters as your brain begins to shut down and you’re unable to form any coherent sentences. The room becomes increasingly warm as your flustered state makes the blue haired woman giggle and press a kiss to your cheek.

“I wish to dance with you again, some other time. Until then, farewell.”

favorite line, canon or otherwise. Matt Daredevil

You're getting the entire thing, its send a character not pick one, too bad uwu <3

Overall opinion of them:

Legit one of the biggest assholes in all of marvel and yet he is soooo funny. Matt is a lame, unhinged babygirl and honestly, what a character. Hates God and would jump off a cliff for funsies. I'm rubbing my queer hands all over him with my correct takes.

Gender/Sexuality headcanons:

Bisexual; some days I hc as trans but he's def fighting inner demons and its bisexuality. Can be GNC in a bugs bunny way.

Favorite moment in canon:

When he punched a mirror after having an average Matthew Murdock Moment in vol 1 that's a classic (he makes a point tho)

[Has alt text]

Favorite moment in fanwork:

When artists draw Matt as Latino

Favorite line in canon:

Its a tie between-

"I just texted the Hulk. He's on his way. Should be here any second now." "Idiots. The Hulk doesn't text."

And

"Nope. I'm Doctor Doom. That's what the DD stands for."

Characters I love seeing them interact with:

Foggy, Kirsten, Sam, Willie, Tagak, Punisher on a good day (f/ratt fans go away except for my mutuals, Niko and Casper, you guys get it), Moon Knight, Spider-Man in theory, Doctor Doom, Stunt Master

Last thing before sleeping headcanons:

Matt is a mixed Latino; his father is Venezuelan-Ecuadorian and his mother is Colombian. Jack's parents immigrated to the states when Jack was a baby and they changed their original surname (Murciego) to Murdock bc the immigration process found an Irish ancestor with the Murdock surname and bc they couldn't pronounce Murciego, Murdock it is. Maggie was born in the States and her og surname before marrying Jack was Vega. Matt celebrates Ecuadorian Day of the Dead. Matt had a punk rock phase in college and was embarrassed by it but dragged Foggy to multiple underground rock concerts anyway. He embraced his punk side later on and incorporate it into his DD outfits.

Sleeping habits headcanons:

Horrid sleeping schedule; will nap anywhere and try to get some sleep. If he's exhausted or sick, Matt will become a heavy sleeper where the only thing that would wake him up is an attack on the senses (Throw ice cold water on his face, open a bottle of acetone next to him, and honk an airhorn in front of him simultaneously).

First thing after waking up headcanons:

Figure out wtf is going on before going to the bathroom. Doesn't clean up the drool stain on the pillow.

Favorite locations headcanon:

Fogwell's Gym, the law firm office, any mosh pit, mirror crystal dimension if Marvel brought Tagak the Leopard Lord back and made them friends

[yostresswritinggirl]

Hello!! Congrats on 600 followers!! For the fifty requests, may I suggest something like the reader and Albedo babysitting Klee for a day and shenanigans ensue? Hope you're having a nice day and an even better week!

Klee and Albedo are my happy pills. And since I'm having trouble causing pain, this entered my mind and hhhh- thank you so much, anon! Funnily enough, I thought of something better and kinda flipped the request so have this!

Back to Earth

Hanging out with Klee and Albedo, fun times ensue! (masterlist)

Dragonspine is a place rarely visited by the likes of you for various, obvious reasons.

Yet despite its dangerous perils, Albedo is its most frequent visitor. Out of everyone in Mondstadt and probably the whole of Teyvat, his stay there is longer than anyone has been. Maybe that's one of the reasons why you don't like Dragonspine that much.

"(Y/N), Albedo is looking far again..." You hum in contemplation as you tilt your head.

The snow had always brought Albedo into a state of dissociation, and he'll have this distant look in his eyes that always worry you and Klee. Even if he's quick to dismiss or hide this part of him, and even if you and Klee are gullible at times, it was such rare moments where you two are just aware.

"He looks kinda sad..." You hum before patting Klee's head, who looks up from under her hat in front of you. And when you meet her eyes, she beams so warmly you couldn't help but smile back.

"Let's cheer him up, shall we?"

The Kreideprinz heaves out a heavy sigh after inhaling deeply, the lack of condensation makes him crease his eyebrows in growing frustration as the heavy feeling in his chest gnaws even deeper.

Breathe, Albedo reminds himself. But it wasn't enough to fight off the obvious guilt at the back of his head at another dead-end. This expedition should have yielded more results to help his research on the meaning of-

A pressure around his waist and chain of his coat forces him to snap his eyelids open, looking down to see the two sunshines in his life leaning over and under his arms to look up at him with such wide, bright smiles. His indifference turns into a soft smile before bringing you both into a hug.

"Hello there, you two. What are you doing here?"

"Everyone else from your team already descended from the mountain, you took a while."

"So we came up to fetch you!"

He offers a guilty chuckle paired with an apology for the delay and soon enough, you three were on your way back down the mountain. But with you babysitting Klee today, it's only normal that some detours are made here and there. Thankfully, that girl has a pyro vision.

You took Albedo's outstretched hand as he pulls you up to the rock formation that Klee suddenly wanted to climb. The cold seemed to pick up at this elevation and you were thankful for the coat Albedo owns that he leant you, it was a blessing that he never gets cold.

"Moment of birth!"

The solid ground beneath you rises as you three stood on the solar isotoma. Higher! Exclaimed Klee as Albedo picks her up and on to his shoulder, the view now equal as your party watches the misty fog of Dragonspine break away as if on will, to show the distant expanse of where Mondstadt lies miles away.

"Wow," a hand finds its way into yours as you leaned farther, engraving the display into your mind as much as you can in great detail. But your peace was interrupted when a red ball suddenly flies past you, plummeting down the scale of the rock formation for a good five seconds.

Before a distant explosion catches your ears.

The pregnant, frozen pause ends as you and Albedo turn to Klee who was still in Albedo's arms. But the spark knight doesn't meet your eyes. No, no, she was looking far below where the explosion sizzles.

"I think I saw some of those floaty bad guys from before down below!"

Ah. Poor Abyss Mage.

Somehow Klee's idea of a goodbye is unorthodox to the norm of society depending on the setting. Perhaps you expected the cool climate to reduce her 1000% energy to at least 500%, but as you duck down from another flying dodoco, you feel like the climate here was more of a disadvantage for you.

"Why is Klee mining so aggressively?!" You turned your head to the enabler, who had just covered his ears after another explosion.

"When it is done for the sake of others, Klee's enthusiasm skyrockets from the normal level," Albedo dodges a huge crystal chunk that almost nicked his shoulder. "Klee is also an avid miner of rocks."

"Klee- KLEE, THERE'S A HOLE IN THE MOUNTAIN, YOU CAN STOP NOW!"

"Big brother wants the crystal rocks, he's getting the crystal rocks!"

By some great divine blessing, all three of you somehow made it out alive with actual workable chunks to spare. The problem was that the explosions attracted lawachurls, boars, mages and even treasure hoarders to the chaos. Even if it was such an uneven fight, your combined efforts seem to have earned you victory.

Your arms wrapped tightly around the curled up bomber, backpack discarded on the grass as she readies herself for a scheduled rest after the exhausting mischief she had caused, "Sweetie, you're banned from Dragonspine..."

"But, (Y/N)... the crystals..." Albedo looks over his clipboard sketch after picking up the drowsy conversation.

"Let them live in peace..." You watched the little knight yawn as it makes you copy the same action subconsciously, eyes drooping as you leaned on each other. By the time Albedo had finished the outline of his sketch, you two had already fallen into an impromptu siesta.

The Chief Alchemist exerts a sigh of relief before going back to sketching your slumber. Even after the reminder of his weeks long effort for an empty research, you and Klee bombarding (literally) his melancholy somehow made his disarrayed thoughts clearer and assembled.

In a world of loose ends and tragedies, this lone Alchemist found himself two rays of the brightest sunlight.

Putting away the finished sketch, Albedo plants a kiss on yours and Klee's temples. He wears his purest smile audienced by none at the sight, and he muses with pure clarity in his voice,

"Maybe this is the meaning of life."

Ahah cute shit after that rage I just felt uwu

🎀 & 🌷

Feeling Soft Today UwU

🎀 - Do they aim to impress their partner often? If they do, how so?

Answered!

🌷 - Are they ever been scared/are scared to fall in love?

Pre-Crystal? No. He was very eager to find someone. As a young man he dated frequently, felt a spark between a few of them, and also experienced his share of heartache during that time. He was very happy to feel such a powerful bond form between himself and his wife, and regards his wedding to her as one of his fondest memories of Halcandra.

Post-Crystal though? Yes, a little. I wouldn't say he's scared of it, but more that he's drowned himself in the turmoil and grief of losing everyone and being left alone to sit with that for a million years. Seeking love would take a backseat to him seeking revenge against an enemy that isn't really there anymore. Once he's been convinced to give the revenge idea a rest, he'd have to cope with living a relative life of peace after basically only knowing war for the majority of his adult life so far. Falling in love again would feel weird to him, and he would have to grapple with accepting and coming to terms with these emotions after the painful loss of his life in Halcandra.

In a way, Galacta Knight being able to accept feelings of love again would herald the 'acceptance' stage of his especially long grieving period.

[apalebloodmoon]

Hello! It is I again, back with yet another bit of rambling for Hollow Knight! This one is a bit specific, though, and might tread on some shoes in the fandom if stumbled across, so I wanna preface this by saying that if you do not share my idea, that’s totally valid! I would prefer to not be discussed with over this, and replies will most likely be ignored! As a result of not wanting to seek confrontation, I’m not going to tag it either. This is also something I’ve been sitting on for a while! So it is a bit... lengthy? That said, HK spoilers under the cut!

Honestly, in regards to the Void Civilization, I don't think the Radiance was a colonizer.

It's one thing to say that the big angry moth lady decided in what was likely a combination of having lost some essential part of herself from lack of worship as well as a big grudge-holding that vibe checking the Pale King's perfect, shining kingdom of glory that was meant to last throughout the ages was a good idea. It's another thing to say that the big angry moth lady, ruling over a tribe of pacifistic moths who would have LIKELY reflected their higher being's view, proceeded to entirely devastate a civilization to where traces of them living are pretty much nonexistent.

If such was the case, if she wanted to wipe them so thoroughly off the face of Hallownest to where nothing remained, what about their remnants? And I'm not talking about the remnants of their existence in the Abyss, I'm talking about the statues that litter the entirety of the kingdom. If these were of the Void Civilization's making, wouldn't a god who decides to literally scrub out a thriving civilization- one that might have had no qualms with her, existing underground and leaving her and her tribe be- leave nothing behind? Even then, if Light such as the Old Light can destroy Void if it's empowered, such as vice versa, who's to say there was nothing that was stopping her from going down to the Abyss and eliminating the source of the problem?

And that's if they even existed within the same time frame.

What I believe is more likely is that the Void Civilization itself died out some odd centuries ago before Radiance and her moths came to be. This isn’t something implausible, given that most places settled into are commonly in very habitable regions and thus, in the case of one civilization crumbling, another could be likely to come along centuries later and make their home there without even properly uncovering the remnants of the lost civilization until years down that line. This isn’t to say that I believe Radiance was a pacifistic UWU goody two shoes. She likely had some massive bias towards her own moths and ignored the existence of other bugs at best. We can sort of sum up that she was possible very protective of her moths, which are the two traits that probably really started the whole mess in Hallownest to begin with as a wyrm, a devourer of kingdoms, coming in would have set her off and sent her on the attack if the thought of her being super protective is true. That’s not even mentioning the kingdoms who existed at the same time as Radi not showing more conflict of sorts with her as opposed to PK. (This also would be a good time to point out the ‘radi hiveminded before pk’ likely not being true at all BUT this is a rant about why radi didn’t colonize not why pk is still one of The Worst objectively imo and while the two subjects are similar they are also different) And! If Radiance were to have taken out the Void Civilization, than the moths, who are largely pacifistic, would have been her accomplices, henceforth sharing her views; something that I don’t think PK would have been able to get them out of by simply having them comply with his rule and henceforth assimilating the moth tribe into modern Hallownest culture, dissolving or appropriating what he saw fit but never able to rid them of their core ways. So, with this in mind, when Radiance did break from the moth’s pacifism, it was largely into PK’s rule, with her connection to her tribe, her followers, having essentially been severed except for maybe like, a few who might’ve still remembered her/worshipped in secret and were rapidly dwindling into the ages. This is also not to mention Radiance’s main area of worship/influence, that being Crystal Peak and the Spirit’s Glade (and, by extension, Dirtmouth and the Crossroads), is drastically far from where the void civilization would have been, which can be assumed to be directly in the Abyss or one of the nearby areas.

"But the ANCIENT ENEMY line!"

Void and Light are two opposing forces. They are basically two sides of the same coin, and it's likely instinct for a Light-based being of any kind to want to Vibe Check anything made of Void, as is vice versa! There isn't any need to think super hard into it, it's just how it is. Yin and Yang, Push and Pull, you get the idea. There doesn’t need to be some Deep Lore (™) explaining it when it’s already established that dark and light just are opposite forces. “Then what about the “kill the empty ones” line?” This. This is CUT CONTENT. Meaning that at one point, it would have fit the story they were telling, but ultimately it clashed with something in the game, whether it be story-wise or ideal-wise in the vision they had for it, thus was removed. It happens all the time, and while I love me some cut content opening up new headcanons, it is important to remember to look upon other things existing in the game and to draw perhaps more than just one conclusion from the evidence presented. (This is also to say that different headcanons from mine are- in at least 70-80% of the time- valid. Just because I don’t support something doesn’t mean your take on it is Wrong.)

“But what about what Seer tells us?” Seer. The moth who is elderly, was raised in PK’s time as king, and was most likely kept from knowing things about her own culture and history, if not outright lied to? I don’t know about you, but I don’t think she is the most reliable narrator, and that some things she tells you should be taken with a grain of salt. Not to mention the implication of the moths being grouped into Hallownest unwillingly, with one piece of proof being the PK idol planted in the spirit’s glade likely before it was closed off (if the idol was left there some time before, then why was it left there instead of being picked up and moved?).

TL;DR: Radiance did not colonize, as a lot of evidence proves more towards the void civilization either having existed at the same time, separate from her area of influence, or (more likely) they existed and fell long before Radiance ever came to be in the area.

More observations of 90s Sailor Moon 65 episodes in:

Disclaimer: I didn't grow up with the 90s Sailor Moon like other kids did. I watched a couple episodes but that was pretty much it so I'm considering this my first time watching.

1- There is slight character development, but the progression is a lot slower than I would like.

2- Speaking of, everyone is still more or less the same person they were when they first showed up with Mamoru as the exception. Usagi's still doing teenager things and not really stepping up as a guardian that much but she's trying her best, everyone else is still talking shit about Usagi, and everyone's base character traits have gotten kinda stale at this point.

3- Literally every freaking character says stuff that plays into Usagi's self esteem issues like fam that's not teasing that's just being awful. "Usagi's never on time/I don't like weak women" What the actual fuck.

4- Ail and An are the best villains so far. They're so freaking funny and they're the main reason why I enjoyed the first arc of Sailor Moon R.

5- Makoto is still my favorite Guardian and 90s Mamoru is still the funniest character.

6- The Moonlight Knight makes absolutely no sense at all, but I love him.

7- I just wanted Usagi to call Mamoru "Endymion" just once was that too much to ask? 😔

8- I kinda wish there was more for Sailor Moon to do. She just runs around until one of the other scouts weakens the enemy before she finishes it off.

9- Y'all I got so scared when I made it to Chibi-Usa's debut episode cause I've heard nothing but terrible things about her 90s counterpart. I understand completely why y'all hate this girl. She gave Usagi this look and it was over for me. THEN she trashed her room for no reason and put on the soft uwu baby act to make her look bad? God, I hate these kinds of characters. Throw the whole girl away.

10- 90s writers really made Chibi-Usa a brat with no agency I hate this. Right now, it genuinely looks like Pluto yeeted her into the past with the mission of finding the Legendary Silver Crystal with as little information as possible and she just didn't have a say in it.

11- Say what y'all want about Crystal being a wonky adaptation, at least it showed Chibi-Usa's defense mechanism as an actual defense mechanism instead of her being flat out rude and pretending it is. 90s Chibi-Usa is actually LESS mature than her Crystal/manga counterpart. I get that she's mentally and emotionally still a child (due to her own self esteem issues), but at least Crystal Chibi-Usa didn't have me foaming at the mouth when she was on screen. She was a little rude but I didn't hate her.

12- Mamoru breaking up with Usagi is fucking dumb and is just there for pointless drama between her and Chibi-Usa that shouldn't even be there in the first place. It's not even good drama. It's just annoying.

Intelligence Level: On a scale from 1 to 10, he's close to 6.4

Backstory:

Not far off from the Macawi Port, a small village sat between two hills, and one afternoon while his parents had been really busy, he was born unexpectedly.

He lived a simple life there for his first two years. His parents knew that he'd feel lonely so they wanted to gift him a sibling. When the time came for his mother to give birth, it went tragically wrong. Both her and the baby passed away.

His father fell into a deep depression and soon took his life, unable to live with the thought of losing them. Izar was left with no one, but Elias, his parents' old time friend.

But he was way too old to take care of a child. He didn't know if he'd live long enough to raise him.

Luckily, a traveler had been in town for a while, saying that they were looking for orphaned children that needed care. So, with pain in his heart and tears in his eyes, Elias gave little Izar away.

About a week later, he was brought to Vesuvia, to an orphanage in the South End where many others were taken care of.

There, he grew up a rather lonely child. He was sweet and kind, but he always somehow caused troubles for the others. Even so, one child in particular wanted to be friends with him.

She had dark skin, beautiful jade eyes and chestnut brown hair. The adults often referred to her as Allira. Almost immediately, they became best friends and quite inseparable at that too.

When he was around 5 years old, they both joined a small group of kids. He was told to be aware of them because they were troublesome and although Izar didn't want to mingle in such things, he felt good vibes coming from them.

The so called leader in group's name was Syro. The others were two girls named Morana and Eris. And even if the three of them were skeptical at best to let the two 5 year olds join them, they still did. After all, Izar kind of insisted that they do.

He already knew what the caretakers had in plan for him when he'd grow up some more- they made it their goal to teach the kids the basics of reading and writing and let them choose a name for themselves.

And when the time came, Allira was the first to change her name, into Libelle. Although there was only a two month gap between them, he felt a little jealous, being the youngest. But then his birthday came too.

And so, Izar Sauvageau became Calyx Everhart.

His childhood was nothing short of decent. It wasn't the best, but it was good enough for him. Full of adventures and mischief, things he surprisingly enjoyed, and a group of friends- or siblings if you will- who were always willing to make his day better.

But then, like a dam crashing, bad news came with the years that passed. The adults made it clear that they loved the kids as their own, but they were getting old and rusty to take care of so many. So, when each of them would turn 17, they'd have to leave and make their own future.

Eris was first to leave as she was eldest. Cal isn't the type to vocally admit his emotions, but he hugged her so tight that day, he was afraid to let go.

As time passed by, and he entered puberty, Morana and Syro had to leave too. In the end it was only him and Libelle left. The other three would visit of course, but it wasn't the same.

Then, when it was Libelle's turn, she couldn't leave him behind, so they left together. Their main priority was to find something left of their roots, their relatives.

They tried to find Libelle's first, but to no avail. They only found a distant friend of her parents who told them what happened to them. She was so shaken up from such revelations that they had to go back to Vesuvia to calm down for a while.

Not much later, after gathering enough information, they took a boat and traveled to the Macawi Port, where he was told he'd find someone who knew about his heritage. Eris accompanied them. After what happened to Libelle, they didn't want to risk the same thing happening to him.

There, they found Elias Vincent, his parents' friend that gave him away so many years ago. He was old, barely standing anymore, and it took him a while to recognize Calyx. Elias sat down him down, explained everything to him. After half an hour of discovering tragedies and rivers of tears on their cheeks, they spent the night there and left at dawn.

There was nothing left for Calyx there, he had his own family and future to make in Vesuvia.

But then, 2 years later, the Red Plague arrived. All of them except Eris knew it'd be better to leave, to flee from the place.

Him and Libelle took to their own path, and traveled across to Venterre, where Eris told them to find her brother, Sethos. He would shelter them until the chaos would be gone.

And so they did, but a couple of days later, the three of them were shocked to receive news that Eris had caught the plague and died.

Then one night, Libelle frantically woke both of them up, telling them she felt Eris' energy. That she had a vision of her being alive. So Calyx wrote a letter to Syro and Morana, letting them know they had to meet up in Vesuvia and find her. And true to Libelle's visions, Eris was alive and well.

Apparently, Asra, the one that she lived with in her shop, brought her back through a sacrifice. But they couldn't let her know anything of her past or it would trigger immense headaches and catatonia.

After she was assigned to Count Lucio's murder case, the others all made it their duty to help her in some way.

So he took it upon himself to make sure they had all the ingredients needed for any sort of ritual or potion or anything else.

And Portia, the Countess' trusted handmaiden, offered to help him.

He didn't expect to fall in love with her though.

Personality: compassionate, anxious, caring, loving, forgiving, determined, self-less, energetic, trustworthy, honest, faithful, genuinely passionate, friendly, a little shy and very kind-hearted

Interesting facts:

The identical tear-drop tattoos under his eyes are a result of Syro and Morana dragging the others to get tattoos as well.

Gemstones and crystals are his passion and number one hobby.

He doesn't trust easily, no matter how friendly and polite he may be.

Although he loves to create jewelry, he doesn't wear it often.

He's sometimes insecure about his appearance, but he tries his best to think positively of himself.

Loves animals, especially bunnies, they're his favorite.

He loooooves playing the piano, especially if he's dueting with someone.

He has a scar on the right side of his neck and one on his right pec, both from dagger cuts.

Appearance: Limestone skin tone, straight-quiff strawberry blond dyed hair, silverish-grey eyes, soft skinny inverted triangle body shape

Familiar: Mauve, the most beautiful and mischievous violet-backed starling in town

Voice claim: Heath Ledger

Full sprite:

AND HERE'S MY UWU BOY, CALYX!!💜

It didn't take me as long as I thought it would, the drawing process was actually pretty easy and smooth going.

Which makes me constantly think I missed something--

ANYWAYS, PLEASE SHOW MY BABY LOVE!!

Grey Prince Zote (#31) The Ultimate incel. This guy is so obsessed with himself that he can’t comprehend anyone else having a personality. He pounds you for one minute without lube, comes, and immediately falls asleep. I cannot describe how little I want to fuck him. 

Galien (#30) This man is not to be trusted. You know he’d open the door for you to be “chivalrous,” complain about feminists, and say you owe him sex because he paid for dinner. 

Traitor Lord (#29) I don’t know how else to put it— this man is a sexist homophobe. He was so threatened by his own sisters’ authority that he went and sucked on some toxic orange goo to be better than them. This man is an incel. 

The Collector (#28) Look, normally I’d be into a black amorphous blob, but the man is Obsessed with grubs. I don’t want to fuck something that likes kidnapping kids. 

Gorb (#27) Classic example of ‘being intelligent doesn’t mean you’re interesting.’ Obsessed with himself. Would Not treat me right.

Massive Moss Charger (#25) This is. A Bush. I do not want to fuck a bush. 

Nosk (#24) Would eat me and not in the sexy way (unless you’re into vore). Nice legs though. 

Winged Nosk (#23) Every benefit and drawback as Nosk, except that it has wings, which gives it a slight edge. 

Dung Defender (#22) A nice guy, but he’s senile and bathes in literal shit. Sorry dude, but you’re not fuckable. 

Elder Hu (#21) Sorry folks, I don’t have an old guy kink. Even if he’ll literally smash me to bits, that doesn’t make up for his age. 

White Defender (#20) Dung Defender, but before his fall. Decent combatant, devoted to his friends, but you know he’s just going to end up rolling in shit. 

Vengefly King (#19) Looks like he’d be hard to kiss, but he’s a literal king AND he can hold you up while he fucks you on the ceiling. Unfortunately, he’s emotionally unavailable. How can I tell? I just Know. 

Enraged Guardian (#18) Same benefits and drawbacks of the crystal guardian, he’s just faster 

Crystal Guardian (#17) Slow, screams a lot, but decent color sense. 

Soul Master (#16) Powerful, can fly, can do magic. Unfortunately, he’s obsessed with power and won’t spend enough time on me. He’ll lock himself away in his study instead of locking me to the bed. 

Markoth (#15) Classic shield, skilled at magic, nice cape, good color scene. Unfortunately, he likes to make you follow him around, and that’s not sexy. 

Brooding Mawlek (#14) Social, loving, with an orange goo hot tub on top of its head? It might not be the most fuckable, but it’s a decent hookup 

Uumuu (#13) Normally, I’d be down for tentacles. Unfortunately, with uwu there’s nothing TO fuck— the tentacles are too short. Electricity is Very sexy though

Soul Warrior (#12) Look at him— classy, althetic, has a sword. It’s everything I look for in a dinner date and hookup. 

False Knight (#11) Big. Strong. That’s a bear right there. Also, the armor? Very sexy. -2 points because he doesn’t fill out his armor. 

God Tamer (#10) This lady loves her pet, and I can respect that. Unfortunately, she’s also not an incredible fighter. Nothing special, nothing terrible. 

Xero (#9) Now THIS is a man with swords. Two swords? Four swords? Six swords? He has it all. Not to mention his impeccable fashion sense. I’d trust this man to rail me right. 

Watcher Knights (#8) Look, I like a good gangbang as much as the next person, and there are eight of these fellows. Not so sure about the whole roly-poly aspect, but so long as there’s at least two of them focused on me, I’m into it 

Nailmasters Oro and Mato (#7) Look, these guys are absolute units. They’re combat masters, thick as hell, AND there’s two of them. Hell yeah. 

Hive Knight (#6) Cute, devoted, and master of an army. What’s NOT to like? This guy would take you home, make you dinner, and give you oral until you scream. He’s a sweetheart! Unfortunately, he has nothing visually to make him sexier than some of the other characters. 

Hornet (#5) Bicon. Has a sword. Can and Will step on me. What’s not to love? (except her flighty tendencies). She’d fuck me and run, but my god what a fucking it would be. 

Mantis Lords (#4) These are powerful women. They’re competent politicians, incredible warriors, and have some gorgeous horns to boot. Not to mention that there’s THREE of them. These women would take care of me. I’m talking chained to the bed and fucked until I can’t even think. 

The Hollow Knight (#3) This one has it all. Long legs, combat capabilities, horns, a sword, AND a bondage kink. The hk would make love to me, and they’d make love to me WELL 

Grimm (#2) Okay. Okay. This man? This man right here? This is a goth KING. He’s the lord of nightmares, the keeper of the heart, AND he wants to coparent. He’s lithe, slender, an incredible opponent, and he runs his own business. I can’t describe how much I want to peg him. 

Radiance (#1) This woman is a literal Goddess. This woman saw what she loved, and became it. And when an invader came into her land and tried to wipe her out, she destroyed his kingdom. She is beautiful, she is powerful, and I love her more than anything. I would worship the floor beneath her feet, but she’s so powerful she doesn’t even stand on the floor. If she loved me, she would peg me, and I can’t imagine anything sexier than that.

Blade Song | Sneak Peek

Genshin Impact - Zhongli x Kaeya

Sneak peek at an upcoming fic I've been planning for quite some time! Hope you guys enjoy the preview uwu~

"Ah apologies! It seems as though you are not a treasure hoarder."

Zhongli huffed and stuck the blade of his spear into the earth. Crossing his arms over his chest, he rumbled with amusement. "No harm done...however this considers that I am capable of parrying such a precise ambush."

The Crystal wielder chuckled. "No harm no done, as you said. Knights of Favonius Cavalry Captain, Kaeya, with his sincerest of apologies."

Cavalry captain...now that does ring familiar. Zhongli drummed his fingers against his arms. "Your station gives me all the more reason to believe just the smallest bit more of caution would have been apt in the event I was not the one you crossed blades with."

"Be that as it may," Kaeya rested his chin thoughtfully on his hand with that fox-grin still apparent on his features. "Who would've told if I had frozen an innocent opponent? Certainly not the man buried two feet in ice."

Ah, the Archon felt his amiability slip a bit. He's one of those types.

a  very  merry  eaton-black  christmas,  as  told  by  instagram.

@charlie_eaton97:  cheers  to  a  lovely  christmas  !  maybe  the  carpenter’s  were  right  ...  maybe  there  really  is  no  place  like  home  for  the  holidays  :-) @charlie_eaton97:  on  second  thought  i  may  just  be  really  tired  of  school  lol  xx

on  the  evening  after  their  last  final  on  the  twenty-third  calendar  day  of  december,  the  eaton-black  brothers  catch  a  plane  home  to  london  to  celebrate  the  holiday  with  family.  it’s  the  sort  of  break  you’d  expect  ---  paper  crowns,  christmas  crackers,  plenty  of  alcohol,  and  a  tasty,  home-cooked  feast.  the  knights  stop  by  at  some  point  during  christmas,  and  everyone  exchanges  gifs.  this  year,  charlie  really  did  try  his  best  to  put  together  a  decent  set  of  presents  for  everyone  ...  only  he’s  not  very  tasteful  when  it  comes  to  things  like  this,  and  he  often  consulted  google  /  tik  tok  for  ideas.

see  :  charlie’s  google  search  history  ...

a  brief  list  of  presents  he  gave  out  on  christmas  :

his  dads:  an  air  fryer  uwu  he  probably  was  the  first  one  to  use  it  and  made  fried  pickles  for  everyone,  it’s  calm  !!

@ofthomas​:  a  personalized  guitar  strap  with  lyrics  from  his  favorite  song  carved  into  it  🥺

@sloanesfm​:  a  necklace  with  both  their  birth  stones  (  bc  she’s  his  rock  <3  )  +  mid-century  lucite  foil  candles  bc  he  found  them  in  a  vintage  shop  and  thought  they  were  the  coolest  !

@skylarsfm​:  a  quartz  crystal  table  lamp  +  candle  from  roseville  ...  yes  he  stole  the  candle  idea  from  sloane,  bc  apparently  their  dorm  needs  better  vibes  ??

future  christina  says  YES  charles  got  something  for  anya  his  bff  !  uhm  it  was  probably  as  diy  as  he  possibly  could  manage,  perhaps  a  cute  wittle  apron  or  something  like  that.  thx

his  break  consists  of  visiting  friends  from  home  and  taking  time  to  rest  and  be  with  his  parents  /  brother.  at  some  point  during  the  week  after  christmas,  he  takes  @riaflicke​  out  to  a  fancy  restaurant  downtown,  and  it  goes  well,  he  thinks.  it’s  BYOB,  so  he  brings  a  bottle  of  chardonnay  from  france.  they  mostly  chat  about  their  travels,  and  charlie  foots  the  bill  for  the  night.  in  contemplation  of  it  all,  he  has  to  wonder  if  he’s  doing  everything  right,  and  if  ria’s  even  interested.  not  to  mention,  he  still  can’t  help  but  think  of  that  night  with  sloane  during  thanksgiving  break,  all  those  weeks  ago  ...  oh  ariana,  we’re  rlly  in  it  now.  honestly.  the  boy’s  just  doing  his  best  ...  pls  let  him  rest  ya’ll  😔✊

Can I toss you my left tit for a platter of Kiyana x Nezatrine? Jfjsjdjf 💚

Why abso-freakin-lutely~ lfjkjk 💜

Is the most affectionate: Both are pretty loving in their own ways, though Kiyana can get particularly "snuggly" whenever she sees Nezatrine (especially since they can often work so far apart with their current jobs 🥺)

Their most common argument: I don't think they'd "argue" all that much tbh, more like just playfully teasing here and there imo (whilst moreso roasting other people ljkgjk)

Nicknames for each other: "Nez", "Yana", "Babe", "Sweetheart", and sometimes Yana liked to describe Nez in her old diary as her "Crystal Knight" uwu

Who initiates kisses: Honestly between the both of them, it goes either way lol ;p

Who kisses the hardest: Again, it depends but Yana's smooches can be especially powerful in times they haven't seen eachother in awhile~ 💜

Who said I love you first: Hmmmmm, for some reason I'm thinking Nezatrine probably did (while Yana always knew she loved them, but just wasn't sure when/where to say it until Nez opened up first? :o)

Who whispers inappropriate things in the other’s ear during inappropriate times: Given how boring it can be for Kiyana to sit through the King's military speeches, you can expect Nez to whisper in some "spicy" sass to liven things up fljkjk

Who's the better cook: Most of Yana's cooking deals with microwaving/picking up takeout since she's been too busy with work to have much energy for cooking, but perhaps Nezatrine could teach her a few tricks~? ;p

Who wakes up to calm the baby: Both~ 🥺 I can just imagine Nez creating a crystalline nightlight to calm their little one, whilst Kiyana brings over the bed time story and they all cuddle near the loveseat 😭 💚

Their favorite non-sexual activity: Drawing~ though their jobs can be pretty exhausting, it always felt good for Nez and Yana to be able to just kick back and pick up a drawing pad to sketch what's been on their mind. Whether it's silly doodles roasting someone annoying, or more completed pieces of like some crystal structures or lightning clouds... as long as they're in the zone and together, the two of them couldn't have asked for anything more~ 😊

1 sad headcanon about this couple: When Nez was first kicked off the Elite, Kiyana wasn't allowed to go directly say goodbye to them with the King labeling Nez a "traitor" 😔This really affected her spirits for a long while... until her buddy Beau Blanchard was able to find a way to get her to sneak some letters down to where Nez was currently stationed at (which eventually led to them further reuniting with enough dedication and luck).

1 sugary-sweet headcanon about this couple: Around the time she first got her leg prosthetics as a younger teen, a school dance was around the corner and the two sweethearts decided to go to it together. While at first shy to do any dancing as she was still getting used to her new legs, Nez was able to coax her a bit away from the dancefloor to a more private section near the outdoor garden... sharing a soft, comfortable slow-dance under the moonlight~ 💕💕
