#depends on my motivation tho bc i have other ideas

Zayne: Hidden Motive - The hidden meaning behind these two images and other thoughts about this card.

Warnings: NSFW talk, personal interpretation about this card, some analysis (probably overanalyzing lol).

I've already mentioned this quickly over twitter, tho I have to admit that I hate to write down my thoughts over there cause it's already difficult for me to put my ideas in order, let alone writing them in threads (and not even in my native language, my brain can't do so much). So I'm going to try to explain this here better, especially cause I've seen a lot of people not so sure of what happened in this card, if what Zayne and MC did was straight up dry humping or if it was all just the movement of the chair without actually touching each other.

Of course, this card was wild just for the already suggestive (let alone, stimulating?) work of the camera when MC is on top of Zayne, but this game is not even rated +18 so they have to be careful about what they show. Sex isn't anything new to this game, however it all depends on the way it is portrayed and showcased. Most of the times, sex is always implied; there are spicy moments but it has never been anything overly explicit, most cases the sexy scenes are more like foreplay, what leads to actual intercourse/sex, the last part being left to the imagination. If they were going to be wild with this card, they had to be soft at portraying it, unironically. In order to do that, they had to resort to certain storytelling resources, in this case: the rocking chair, the leaf and the fabric over the couch.

The rocking chair's purpose I think it's quite obvious and it was to not to blatantly show MC and Zayne rocking against each other, it was like the perfect excuse to put them on such a situation without the characters doing it willingly, or so so cause it's already too much to know that MC is sitting on top of Zayne, however this is not new to the game, right? MC sitting on top of Zayne's lap is actually quite normal, she's done it several times; here they just had to give them an excuse to move and when Zayne pulled MC towars him, everything started. I seriously praise the masterminds behind this scene cause they literally gave us Zayne and MC starting to dry hump in front of our very eyes in a very subtle way.

Again, the camera direction is the most risky thing they had done to showcase a sexual act so far, and I'm not mentioning this to downplay any other sexy scenes from Zayne or the other LIs, it's simply bc the bouncing movement it's too explicit and induces quite strong sexual ideas related to it, to go further seemed to be impossible at this point, however it also looked like they wanted us to be sure of what was happening here somehow, that it wasn't only the rocking chair making us seeing things, so in order to confirm what our minds were thinking and it wasn't only the sound of Zayne's kisses filling the room, they resorted to metaphors: the leaf and the fabric over the couch.

Maybe this is my dirty mind speaking, but is so suggestive the way this image was showed right after Zayne asked MC "Do I look like I can work right now?" with all the movement of the camera going wild and he resuming to kiss/suck MC's neck. It literally started to rain in this very moment, and the drop running down the leaf seems to be a metaphor of MC's arousal. Yes, she was getting wet down there. For this one, I think that the reference is quite easy to understand and there's no need to explain more, except to say that I actually loved the subtle yet beautiful/elegant way to refer to her arousal.

But what about the fabric over the couch?

If the image of the leaf was a reference to MC, then this one is a reference of Zayne's own arousal. What this image has is a disheveled fabric that's hanging from the edge of the couch, so there's two things:

The couch → Zayne's thighs/legs (isn't it a common joke within the fandom that Zayne is MC's favorite chair due to all the times she sits on his lap, anyway?)

The fabric → Zayne's robe.

Did you notice that among the four LIs, it was Zayne's robe the only one with the loosest tie and both sides of his robe do not even cross? like this thing it's barely keeping together somehow.

Which is genuinely surprising coming from Zayne, the Zayne whose towel outfit has the safest tie, the Zayne whose workout outfit covers his body from head to toe, the same Zayne who has dressed five (or was it six?) layers of clothes in the past (Master of Fate), the same Zayne who is always wearing long coats and suits and literally the one who makes us feel like victorian man seeing a woman's ankles for the first time lol.

I definitely think they did this on purpose. Give him easier access? Hell yeah. What this image is intending to say is that he was already opening his robe down there, making the contact with MC's wetness closer? Maybe that's why after this, she told him not to be too intense? Hmm...

Now, this probably is my overanalysis, it's up to you if you choose to believe this or not. For some people, media is about what is explicitly told, but narrative resources say a lot most part of the time, it helps the writers to give the readers hints about certain foreshadowing or, in this case, to reference to certain things that are impossible to address due to censorship.

Personally, I loved this card so much, but at the same time, it leaves me with a sense of dread. Did you notice how emotional, bittersweet or even sad/nostalgic was Zayne's bgm during his kindle? I saw some people uploaded the recording of his kindle without the bgm just to appreciate the naughty sounds (no blame here cause I did too ngl ahaha), but it made me want to listen to the music alone and good lord, the music made me so emotional. After watching the kindle with the music on again, I realized of how emotional this moment becomes when the bgm is playing. It gives vibes of something so intense yet so fragile. Go listen and appreciate it alone, you'll see what I'm talking about:

I noticed that they used two new songs for these cards, one was this one and the other was used in Rafayel's kindle, for Xavier and Sylus' kindles, they used bgm that was previously used in other memories. It's also interesting that the art direction of Zayne and Rafayel's kindles has a bit of a somber mood to them, like even their scenarios make sure to use cold colors and emotional backgrounds, while Xavier and Sylus' use more warm and romantic colors, (tho at least Xaviers bgm music was also intense even if the song is not new).

I feel like the bgm wanted to give a sensual yet emotional feeling to most scenes (except Sylus' since this one was the most chill, which is normal considering that he's new), however, we can't deny that Zayne's song feels like something is about to break somehow, idk how to explain. Someone in the comments section of the video said that it was angsty and beautiful just like Zayne is...

I've been feeling like Zayne's latest cards have been really emotional an intense. In Snowy Serenity is Zayne the one who is in danger, in Hidden Motive, it's MC the one in danger and both cards showcase how far are they willing to get in order to secure each other's safety (and also how much they lie to each other about their own safety lol).

In Snowy Serenity, Zayne and MC get emotionally closer, in Hidden Motive they get physically closer and yet both cards have a bit of both themes too, emotional and physical intimacy on another level.

In Snowy Serenity, Zayne knew that he might not be back so he asked MC to see him off the airport and gave her a hug, even if he never said goodbye, and in Hidden Motive, he tells her that she's not allowed to leave him without saying goodbye. Then he tells her he'll like her as long as she's alive and well. We also have the Adventure above the clouds chapters where they talk about ther lifes in 50 years in the future and how they'll be together still relying on each other. In Dawnbreaker's anecdotes, MC gets to celebrate Zayne's birthday with him and tells him that from now on, she'll always celebrate his birthday with him.

It feels like they're starting to look into the future a little too much, like making promises too soon, it feels too perfect... as if something bad is about to happen and rob us from that bright future, you know?

Do you know who made promises before a tragedy?

I've been thinking about this since I finished Hidden Motive cause... my first thought was... Now what can top this? A lot of us got really surprised by Zayne's card cause the spice was unexpected and I think it's needless to say this, but even the kindle felt a bit different from what we are used to see normally, even some ppl said the kindle was a bit longer than normal. Why would they feed us so much good/emotional/intense content of Zayne lately? And how are they going to keep it up? My brain tells me that something sexual being released too soon after this might feel repetitive so in order to create a bigger impact after this they'll resort to angst. I don't think they'll make Zayne's bday event sad, however, they also announced that more main story branches are going to be added from September to December and Zayne's probably gonna be the first to return, since he was the first one to disappear from the main story.

I just can't help thinking about this, I have this bad feeling that I hope is just my stupid brain overthinking and that we will have happy sweet memories with Zayne from now on even tho the story seems to keep hinting that something bad is going to happen, ugh.

Anyway, sorry for my rant, I actually have a lot of thoughts about this card that I don't know if I'll get to write cause I've been really busy with work lately, however I wanted to at least get this out of my chest.

Hylia was referred to as "The Goddess of Wisdom" in one of your posts (the Hades-inspired artwork) so it got me wondering: does Nayru not exist in your AU? Are the three Golden Goddesses absent, or do you have something in mind for them?

(your Hylia is super pretty btw, I love that her hair is like water <3)

oh jesus that is OLD xD

no the Hades stuff was just a little one-off thing back when it was new; it means nothing for my actual zelda fanworks!

so no, Hylia does not replace Nayru; in the main stoyline of destiny (comic) the gods only briefly show up fully at the end and mostly only manifest parts of themselves bc in my story they cannot physically directly do much in those physical worlds aside from manipulate peoples dreams and in the small area of the one ancient spring (a seperate spring from the three usual ones that is dedicated to all three of the gods- demise destroying the one of his home created the gateway to hylias world btw) which is the reason they created deities like Hylia, a creature not a full god but not a mortal either, not what i would call a half-god tho; a Deity to do as the gods say, to act as a mere exentension of them in a world they cannot fully control ... bc what does a god hate more than not being able to control their creation .. :^)

if i ever get to the point of finishing destiny, depending on how i feel about it then and how well it was received, i could imagine adding an alternative ending where everyone lives and they work together to rid the gods influence from the world (the first ending is supposed to play into the rest of loz, the other one would mess up EVERYTHING but i cannot deny i have stuff for that planned as well ;__;)

basically the gods are the main looming threat, they are, essentially, the villain, their motives ... might be dissappointing but as they are gods they dont really have to make that much sense ..? i dont want to go into it too much unless it doesnt bother people to already know, i just hope it will feel right when the story gets to that point xO

i havent gotten to designing the gods fully yet as, again, they show up rather late so its gonna change anyway, this is an old concept of Nayru

here in the background are they again with a more recent design (this sketch is for a .... another dream game based on the alternative good ending for destiny where here you fight as demise against the gods in their realm.. i know its a bit convoluted all but my brain likes to brrrrrrrr when thinking about loz and games so theres lots of ideas and concepts that have no chance of ever becoming real)

also thank you!!

[ihatebrainstorm]

depending on how your au works, including mcginnis might not even work at all, because batman beyond takes place when bruce is an old man (like in his 80s) and was forcibly removed from being batman. so at that point, all of the original rogues gallery had gotten old/retired/died. tho terry did steal the batsuit at first (idk how much you know about batman beyond, so if you knew all that already, sorry lol)

Oh yea the AU does stray quite a bit from actual Batman lore, (like a bunch of backstory stuff is changed), and ik at least that Batman Beyond takes place when Bruce is real old (admittedly the only Batman Beyond thing I've ever watched was that one movie where my boi Tim... goes through it.......) But my current idea is that Terry's stuff does still happen in the far out future, and that there's other characters who'll fill in the Batman Beyond rogues list?

Large differences between the AU and Batman canon: It's a varied mix up of different Batman universes mushed together (DCAU, Arkham, DC Animated Movies Universe, certain comics, etc. etc. whatever I feel basically lmao so it isn't super technical? Mostly pure fun :P) A lot of backstories and motives are changed to fit both the TF character's dynamics/ personalities, and a lot of relationships dynamics are also changed. (Ex. Commissioner Gordon and Batgirl would likely have no relation to each other. Largely bc I don't feel comfortable assigning them a TF character and implying those 2 TF characters are related? If that makes sense? Unless it's in the case of actual related characters like Sunstreaker and Sideswipe)

But ya,, tbh it's mostly me just having fun brainrotting over two things at once and merge mansioning stuff together lmao- I just like the challenge of trying to put two things together and making sure both things still have their essential characteristics present

[raitnrong]

ive been so tempted to make my own geeta post ever since ive written down this one response on an analysis on her. i've actually come to make my own conclusions abt her character while making and it's making me go '???' at all the apparent hate on her.

genuinely i rly do just want to know what piece i've missed abt her dialogue that's gotten the ppl against her buzzing

i in fact do think that geeta is a great top champion! she conducts check-ins w the gyms, has gotten herself involved in the proceedings of the school (a great thing to have done as a top champion btw, recognizing it's important to be updated and engaged in paldea's new generation), and takes her role as the top champion very seriously! (so srs that she's caught onto nemona's need to be able to battle at her fullest when she'd had her exam)

she may have had her flaws like being meddlesome n a bit careless at times (like sending the player to larry w/o a head-up on his part|| a lot of ppl hate this, however this could be construed like she trusts larry to be able to handle such matters instead. depending on ur outlook)

but overall she looks like she does her job w grace. n everyone is flawed?? tho yes it's not an excuse when it comes to having responsibilities as big as hers, but even in a professional light she's not so egregious as to receive the amount distrust she has

a lot of ppl in game hold her in high esteem-- larry is snappy at her yes but why the hell is that suddenly made to define her character? "oh, larry has something going on w geeta n that is but a seed as to why she's fishy as hell!" like??

im p sure larry doesnt even hate her guts! like yes there's dislike there but is larry rly full of loathing so as to have to constantly 'go against the world' bc of his job n his boss? yes his dialogue abt normal types n ppl expecting flashy things were remarkable. but in the context of pokemon? as if id actually believe that!!

(normal types have their own strengths, they're not run-of-the-mill. they don't shine just because "they don't shine". normal pokemon are awesome for being normal pokemon period! it's a type like any other is. not to say his philosophy abt liking a pokemon is any less valid! gym leaders find their types due to many motivations)

anyway getting off topic hahah, larry could just be grumpy in general. so where does ppl get the idea that it makes geeta evil...

is it the design huh. look deep in urself and be honest ,':T

one point btw on how geeta is in fact clever and heartful (that shes not some power-crazed harpy and but is simply engaged in her work) is this point i made abt geeta's decisions with penny.

now if u recall, penny hacked the league in order to be able to reward the player for putting up w cassiopeia's operations

when she told clavell, he said it was out of his jurisdiction n that the decision was to rest on geeta.

and what did geeta do?

she CHOSE to be lenient w penny by instead having her work off her debt to the league by having her improve their cyber networks.

a hobby that penny already does and likes btw! she could have been further expelled or sent off like last time, but instead, geeta's choice was to allow penny the chance to face the consequences of her actions by having penny use her talents as she'd recognized it. geeta didn't see an opportunity for punishment but instead she chose growth.

for her, it'd come to light that they now had two problems: a child facing massive trouble for what is the equivalent of govt.theft and the league's shoddy security. and then she sought a solution that solves both in the most holistic and frickin' effective way possible! wow! it's insane!

she's not taking advantage of penny, it was her intervention of helping her >:T

im sure even penny appreciated her penalty bc she's mature enough to recognize what she's done wrong, does have knack for tech, and she knows she's helping paldea in return w her IT direction (and she's a good kid!)

--hc timee: now imagine nemona and penny bonding over their admiration for la primera as her helpers pls :))--

i would love to hear the points against her other than hcs tho! i may have missed something from the game bc rly i was more tuned to the trio's arcs (esp nemo's) rather than the adults' characters (except for clavell)

but srsly y would ppl hope that there's an agenda ruining scarvi's experience w paldea. tho yes leaders r in the risk of turning corrupt, the fact that there'a no direct text on pkmn is already a testament as geeta's quite clean now.

[lotties-ashwagandha]

my full review of hard home bc i have so much to say 🫡 4/5 stars from me just to give an idea of where this is going , spoilers under the cut!

first off i just want to say the amount of angry men in the reviews of this movie is enough to have me content with it all. be mad but middle aged women who revenge-kill evil men will forever be my favorite tv genre and will never fail, not to make it political but this is a movie we need right now. i think this movie was insanely under marketed for what it could have been, there is an audience for it — a woman who kills her daughter’s murderer by locking him in her smart house that she has built and designed herself is radical media compared to the typical young adult white male insanity we’re given in so many other popular murder movies. look at the early scream movies for example and how they compare to hard home: scream is told from the point of view of the victim who is only the victim (sidney), and we know almost nothing about the killer until the end. in hard home, we start out with the point of view of the victim (in the sense that we’re given — mary wasn’t killed, but her daughter was, and we are meant to see her as the target of the killer) BUT it’s established that she’s not just the victim/target of this man, she’s also hunting him and she’s just as much a danger to him as he is to her. it’s established very early on the power that mary holds in this situation, and that she’s taken it herself, it was never given to her.

the representation of mary as a grieving mother (mother mary?? did we all catch that line?) in hard home in comparison to other films also caught my attention. so often we’re fed the narrative of grieving mother who relies on men to soothe her, men to make it better, men to fix things. but in hard home mary takes things into her own hands and tells her husband to go fuck off — no man is fixing her pain, she admits that even she cannot fix her pain, but that she is entitled to retribution and that she’s taking it for herself instead of charging a man with completing it is fucking badass in my opinion. it’s not something that is portrayed as radical or out of the ordinary in the film as well which I think is beneficial. women in hard home are delivered through a lens that encourages the portrayal of women’s strength and denies any dependence on men. whether this was intentional or not I can’t say, but I do find it amazing that this film turned out with such feminist undertones considering the amount of male influence in the production.

mary is not portrayed as insane in this film either. she’s showed as grieving, in pain, and there is a fullness in the narrative due to the background information and depth we are exposed to throughout the movie that compliments the explanation of her motives.

my complaints though! to be really super honest I think the dialogue in the family scenes fucking sucked. it’s my only major complaint with this whole thing, I feel like the dialogue was so forced and just did not fit the rest of the movie’s energy. it’s not an issue of the acting, the actors did what they could with what was given, but I really really would have appreciated more thoughtful and naturally flowing dialogue scenes between characters. they felt unnatural and stereotypical for how a family should converse. in contrast tho, mary’s talking to herself moments and her talking to the killer did feel natural and I thought the scenes of them together were very well done.

another thing I would have appreciated is more dramatic camera shots/angles. maybe some more shots where it’s filtered as if we’re looking through mary’s cameras. call me picky but I want wide shots of mary in front of the house, making it seem big. I want angular close ups, I want to feel unsettled. i want what they did in saltburn or blue jay, where the setting becomes part of the characters themselves through the way the camera settles on them.

overall though, I really enjoyed hard home and I’ll be rewatching it im sure. give me simone kessell cutting out a man’s tongue and setting him on fire any day of the week and im happy. ive been waiting for this movie for so long and it did not disappoint :)

[nemesis-is-my-middle-name]

Ok. ok ok ok I know youre having fun with Elden ring, and youve probably moved on from the Ley Line Au But Hear me out! Ive been chewing on it for a bit.

So! Three main things that just feel off to me in the au. 1. Giratina is the only primordial god without a magic branch (Which I Know They are anti magic but HEAR ME OUT!) 2. The Twin Dragons are the Light (They just dont feel like Primordial Gods ya'know?) . 3. Giratina still has no motive.

I!!! have connected the dots!!! It always rubbed me a bit when we talked about the dead god and the twin dragons. The Twin dragons are not really death connected. I just realized, we have a perfectly good ghost dragon Right there! Giratina!

So let me set the stage! The Three Primordial Children of the One. At the One's command they became The Fonts of Magic from which the world sprung forth. Then, an unimaginable time later, the Light tore its god to shreads. The God is dead. What is left from the smoldering remains of Light and Magic is a Lack. A Hole from which no light comes and no magic resides. Magic follows waters rules and tries to fill a hole which cannot be filled. In which the Starving, Writhing thing that was Once Light was banished by The One bc It was now a Danger to the world it created. (It is starving Its mind is in disarray WHERE IS ITS LIGHT.) The Magic it brought forth is now destabilized. Which as one of the forces stabilizing space time and the world is a big uh oh. So One Minor Dragon God seized the light as it thrashed and tore the world in a despite bid to keep its people safe. Unlike the Original Light whom was shredded until nothing but a shade remained, the Dragon God was only torn in twane. (Whether its because the light mages (Maybe Celestica? they have light theme right?) stopped in shock or divine retribution has claimed them Idk.)

But the tearing stabilized the light bc It created a dichotomy. Light was no longer JUST light. Its the swing of light to dark. the Truth to the Ideal. The gods original thing merged kinda with the Light. Maybe the Twin gods were gods of Wishes or Maybe Human Perspective idk. But It was important bc Now the Original God of Light is now Darkness. And the Allowance of Darkness in the Light Magic kinda keeps it from folding like a house of cards.

Light Magic tends to the rule of two. Or Give and Take. Depends on the user and the intent. Which makes it Very Dangerous. The Twin Gods try their best but the Light Magic is scarred and volatile. Light users tend to play by the rule of two bc Its generally the more safe of the rules to play by. Two Mages or One who Gives so they can Take. (the appearance of a LONE ridiculously powerful Light Mage Could be very alarming, what could they give to take that much magic. (where is the other one) and Irida has to safe.)

Which Gives Giratina a motive! or maybe a motive for Arceus to stop them. I imagine being killed is very disorenting and not very conductive to being rational non rampaging gods who have yet to realize what it has become. Maybe at the events of the plot it has chilled enough to be reasoned with to Not Eat all the Light Magic and kill everyone (Kinda. it IS a primordial god. ) Tho with Volo maybe trying to control it or maybe enabling it and giving it awful ideas we might need to deal with him first. (If we go with the Idea that Celestica killed Giratina and thats why they're dead, then Volo trying to control the god that their ancestors failed to would be a better motivation than just bc yeah?)

Sorry I just had to get it out here. <3 Have fun with Elden Ring

oh anon i have never moved on from a thing in my life and i am SO INTO THIS.

the one thing i take issue with tho is the sidelining of the twin dragons to being minor deities, bc having a minor deity jump on the ruins of a primal force feels kind of left-field, and to me the concept of there being gods who entirely, by definition, rule the domain of human thought and desire—and pokemon gods, animal gods that can be leashed and controlled—is a concept that fucks so hard and i can't see it as being anything other than deeply fundamental to the universe itself. so can i play with your premise a lil bit

bc i think—and idr how much of this ive talked abt before—BUT i think in pokemon CANON, giratina is also kind of a god's corpse moreso than it is a god in itself. by which i mean to say, giratina was the original holder of spirit, not the lake trio—but having the whole force of spirit contained in one mind was too much for it, and arceus had to take it away and reform it into three separate beings, leaving giratina a banished and abandoned shell. which actually dovetails so neatly into this, just instead of being doomed by its creation, giratina was killed by its mages instead.

so like. light to dark to antimagic to spirit. this feels like such a closed loop. like, it's always kind of fascinated me how the lake and tao legends feel so conceptually linked—truth and ideals vs. willpower emotion and knowledge, like you can see how they're distinct concepts if you squint but intuitively it feels like there should be a lot of overlap. SO. do you see where i'm going with this. i've already said that light is like, the fundamental force that is the contract law of the universe—which fits so neatly with the lake trio's red chain of spirit and the way it can control even palkia and dialga and repair the very fabric of reality. cogita even suggests that it "lets one see reality as it truly is."

i also take umbrage with the idea that resh/zek don't have a death link bc to me they are the products of a death. the original dragon died, and they're the leftovers of its power, with kyurem being the body. ...but kyurem also hasn't played much of a role at all in this so far. has it.

so maybe reshiram and zekrom weren't a separate god that stepped in to fill the void. light has always been the same thing as spirit, two words for the same fundamental domain—fitting so neatly with the concept of facets and angles we've had going so far—and resh and zek are the shards of giratina's corpse. fundamentally disunified and out of balance, two opposing pieces of a god trying to fill the role of a single one. meanwhile giratina persists, but now having been completely gutted, the fundamental piece of its heart where its magic should live permanently gutted and bleeding darkness.

is this tracking?? idc i'm rolling with this now anyway. it fucks to me. anyway i'm also so into the idea that it was celestic who originally killed giratina, bc those mages have been kind of faceless until now but i think it also gives ingo such a fascinating personal stake in this whole quest in a way even irida and adaman don't have. like, he inherited their bloodied hands. he knows more intimately than anyone what the force of light is like now, lacking a true deity. that is fascinating to me.

also wouldn't that legally make volo another light mage?? but like, an Old Light Mage. one of the few who still adhere to the way it used to function, before the killing. bc like, i don't think this has made it into a post yet but i do think those are very different things. light magic is a completely different ballgame nowadays. goddammit yet again volo and emmet have taken up narratively opposed and symmetric positions. why do they do this EVERY time.

[illithilit]

These aren't going on separate posts bc I'm lazy but. The romance headcanons I mentioned doing!

Orianna

Has technically """dated""" plenty of people, but you'll notice the quotes; is it really dating if you're smitten kitten and she's draining you dry of resources or the will to hang onto the souls of yourself and or those you love....? Probably not. The singular person she's dated that she felt anything for was someone who ironically had the aforementioned situation in reverse -- bc yanno, when you're the token backup son of a devout Lolthite noble house, you'll do anything and everything you can to get ahead. Even if that means charming the woman who you figure out to be a devil demigod into granting you magic and planning on taking her divine spark for yourself. Let it be known, though, that she consumed his soul immediately following killing him, so technically he doesn't exist anymore. She still loves the Drowic culture tho

Succubus adjacent without actually being at all a succubus. ( Partially bc I had originally planned on making a succubus, and then the muse evolved. )

Thoroughly enjoys sex, and is equally comfortable with relationships that are built on nothing more than it.

It's not as if she dislikes polyamory in theory, but in practice, I think if she actually fell in love with someone again, she's going to be a bit obsessive about them and would get too jealous for it to be a good idea to have anyone else in the relationship. Bc I note: she could easily turn into the horrifyingly toxic ex / girlfriend if properly motivated. ( Read: this could be your vibe, specifically: "I will kill your friends and family to remind you of my love." )

That said, unless things go in that godawful direction, she's the sort to want to know every little detail about her person, and will remember them all with keen accuracy. ( Might not come across in writing, bc I am extremely disabled in this area whoops. ) Gift giving and service is definitely one of her love languages, and she will positively spoil her partner. So is physical touch tho; one must be willing to cuddle her.

Demiromantic af, but sexually attracted to anyone with enough intelligence. The whole gender thing has never and will never be a factor here.

Tends to quickly lose interest in people if they only express interest in her sexually. Whether this ends in her blowing them off, using them for her own gain, or throwing them out on their face largely depends on the context of the relationship. To be clear, this by no means implies that they need to be interested in her romantically, it's just that if she feels like sex is all you see in her, she tends to want to burn your world to the ground. ( Rafiki vc: look harder.... Throw in an appreciation of her cruelty, or maybe her intellect. That sort of thing. )

Blurg

The thing you have to understand with him is, he's not fit into hobgoblin society well before he was grown; he was that weird kid that the others of his village were either very cruel to or otherwise wouldn't have a thing to do with. Yeah, he grew up with close relationships to his parents and siblings, but like.... My point in this is, between that, and the traumas of growing up in a community ( including himself from a fairly young age ) that frequently participated in surface raids, you get used to death and the notion that no one's safe or permanent. So even after he escaped and put together his own life, he hasn't exactly been one to let anyone get particularly close to him and you can see it in the way that the others speak well of him, but with no real personal knowledge, and how he will tell you a whole lot about his background, but if you pay attention, it's actually p divorced from having anything to do about him specifically. Which is to say, he absolutely never let anyone get close enough to date them even if he's had a passing interest in them. ( It's also why I struggle to picture him in a relationship with anyone but Ome tbh, but that's got another tangent involved. )

Prefers to be pretty well bonded to a partner before he's willing to sleep with them, both bc in his mind, it's a bonding experience, and bc he needs to be comfortable enough with someone to be okay with be vulnerable with them. ( Both in a 'sex leaves you open' type ways and also, he's middle-aged and not sure what he's doing in this area. )

May possibly be comfortable with a poly relationship, but likely only in the circumstance that it's not just one person dating others, it's everyone dating each other, and he was comfortable with the other person well before this was suggested.

100/10 spouse material; he's thoughtful, willing to communicate and compromise, and loves cooking for his partner.

Can be sexually and or romantically attracted to any gender, but is highkey demi.

Mourndax

Definitely had a teen love before he was married to Xune, but it was a bridge he burned in the most scorched earth fashion he could before the wedding out of grief. He and Xune weren't exactly on good terms, but she at least attempted to treat him as a friend -- though her acting in public as if they were married is what seared the resentment and disdain into Mourndax's mind. Never let it be said that he took the bad situation or his hatred of Xune quietly, bc he definitely tried to kill her and their child before he left. And he'd try again too if he saw either of them again. ( No, I've never bothered actually naming his child; he doesn't even know the kid's gender let alone their name, and I am equally apathetic. )

Since coming to the surface, he's had flings here and there, but he's never actually properly dated anyone since he was a teen.

Probably wouldn't be into polyamory??? But I'm not a hundred percent sure here either

Can be v sweet, thoughtful, and protective as a partner, but also tends to not acknowledge that he is. He's v tough and you will not see otherwise, understand?? He bites >:T

Wholly and completely gay in each and every way

Grazilaxx

You look at a mind flayer, and most people's assumption is look at the virgin. Except Graz is not. Graz has spent a lot of time among humanoids, and as such allowed them to mold curiosity into experience. Mind you, its exes do rather read like a grocery list of things is doesn't like in partners ( it likes the decisive, confident, communicative sorts tyvm, everyone else fuck off ) but that's distinctly bc it's figured out what it does and doesn't like through experience bc its younger self had a hard time conceptualizing such things and thus gave most that asked a chance.

A lot of its previous relationships ended bc it tends to be a p intense person that doesn't have much interest in carving out pieces of itself to make room for anyone else. It's not internalized this as something wrong with it so much as an acceptance that it's not everyone's cup of tea. If it's close enough to someone, however, this will translate into it getting cagey about pieces of itself being visible, bc it half expects the pattern to keep repeating. Doesn't mean, though, that it actively masks who it is; it just may not be super open about itself or else side step particularly personal things.

Surprisingly sappy and sentimental when in love, and likes to spend time by existing in the same room together. May not understand your hobbies, but will support them all the same. You might even find little gifts relating to them among your things you don't remember buying.

Not concerned with anyone's gender; anyone may apply. I'm not..... I'm not sure how exactly to describe its orientations, but if it likes your vibes, it might be attracted to you.

May consider casual sex on a case by case basis bc it does actually enjoy it usually, but do be warned: Graz is a dom, and you're not going to get it into a submissive role without sufficient bonding and skill.

🛒✨🧐🤩🎉!!!

Fanfic Writer Emoji Ask || Still accepting!

this got kinda long so im putting it under a cut 😭

🛒 What are some common things you incorporate in your fics? Themes, feels, scenes, imagery, etc.

HMMM i've never really thought about this tbh...i do tend to write a lot of romance bc i'm a sucker for that, and love including themes like overcoming obstacles (i blame the whole 'fight god' shtick going on with jrpgs bc i ate that shit right up) or the struggle with destiny (free will vs predetermination). struggling and fighting is such a big part of character development and plot and i love thinking about different ways this can be portrayed depending on the character(s)

i also love including a lot of introspection and internal thoughts bc i enjoy diving into the thoughts and ideas of characters!! what they're feeling or thinking at a certain time, their justifications and motivations--it's soo important to me, esp if i want to include that sweet sweet yearning,,

✨ Give you and your writing a compliment. Go on now. You know you deserve it. 😉

NOOO I CANT THINK OF THAT MANY MORE

i am proud of how much ive written cumulatively tho, bc apparently i have like 50k words on my ao3 account alone, and although id say about half of that is from rp/collab fics and not written on my own, i still have a good amount that i did write by myself! not to mention i dont post all of my writing onto ao3, so there's a lot of wips in my drive and uh...old fics on my ffn account LMAO (i do not perceive them) that i havent accounted for

ik word count doesnt mean anything, but i do consider it to be evidence of the fact that ive written. a reflection of how much ive come up with? id like to write again once im in the mood again and add to this and maybe one day, ill finally finish a chapter fic (even if it's short!)

🧐 Do you spend much time researching for your stories?

it depends on what i'm writing about, but when i do, i spend an embarrassing amount of time 😭 ive spent hours reading wiki articles for franchises i know enough about bc i like rereading things, or i accidentally wind up going to other pages and reading about them. it's not too bad tho bc sometimes ill wind up learning something new, clarifying a misconception, or just discover something i flat-out missed

on the other hand, ill sometimes just go 'fuck it we ball' bc ik i spend a little too much time researching that i wind up not writing at all, or it winds up being really complicated and i'm not able to understand it well enough to correctly convey in my writing

🤩 Who is your favorite character to write?

OH MAN this is kinda hard...but im gonna say it's probably alex, simply bc he's literally THE culmination of things that i love from other characters (archetype, features, that kinda thing). i love putting him through a lot and pushing his development. plus, the way he is makes it easy for me to bully him (affectionate) while also being able to get in my fix of angst

i just don't enjoy writing how he speaks bc i have this nebulous idea of what i want for his speech pattern, yet i'm not quite able to execute it in a way i like 😭 i'm p sure this is bc i love him a lot and want to be perfect with how i portray him, so thats holding me back

🎉 What leads you to consider a fic a success?

probably if i finish a fic. im still at the point where i dont consistently finish that many pieces so id like to at least be able to do that 😭

otherwise, if im liking my writing and how the fic's coming along, id consider that to be successful too and that i'm doing the right thing so far!

🎨 Eret:

art teacher in primary school

always carries some colored pencils and stickers with her

every kid has a symbol in the wardrobe, so they know where to put their jackets before class

your house is filled with art projects and all the drawings the children gifted her

spends most evenings with you in the living room, crafting some ideas that she could bring into school but knows when it's time to separate school with personal life

goes on a lot of trips with the kids, to playgrounds, zoos, parks or the forest to teach them about nature, animals and all things beautiful in life

brings snacks in case some kids forgot their food

the kids love you so much that you accompany them on trips if you have the time

the children fight for your attention as if their life depends on it. They started a list to know who can sit with you during lunch next or walk on your hand on a trip

they will pout if Erets claims you all for herself

for your last birthday, all the kids crafted something your you and that day Eret came home with a huge bag filled to the brim with presents and cards

knows everything about her students, their favorite pen to use, the times when they are most attentive, how to bring them back to focus, their favorite animal they saw in the zoo and all their little quirks

she never raises her voice at them (she doesn't need it tho, the children will listen to her in an instant)

waits until the last student got picked up until she goes home

ms. honey vibes from matilda

Your footsteps were loud in the quiet school hallway, only the sounds of the various classes resounded behind the closed doors and accompanied you on your way to the classroom at the end of the hallway. Already at the checkroom you could see which teacher owned the room, the wooden board on which the nails for the children's jackets were fastened was decorated with lots of little symbols and not with pasted-on names, like many of the other classes. Behind the door you could hardly hear anything, it was as if no one was there. Interested, you leaned against the door, knocked, and then pushed down the handle when there was no answer. No matter how many times you had entered the classroom, it brought a smile to your face each time. Eret was lucky enough to have one of the few classrooms that had two windows, and on the sunny side, so the room was flooded with warm, natural light at all times. The classroom was filled with banners, posters, drawings decorating the walls, transparent paper cut out to be taped on the window panes, there was a corner full of books and plushies, the orange sheep that was the mascot sitting on the desk in front of the class. It smelled like wet paint, dried flowers and honey and you could always hear the clings and klangs from the suncatcher hanging on one of the windows, turning in the slight breeze from the open window. The children sat scattered at their small group tables covered with painting sheets, immersed in the sheets of paper in front of them. Watercolor boxes and jars of brightly colored in which the many small brushes were dipped over and over again before a new color was selected for the works of art, were everywhere. Eret herself was sitting at one of the tables as well, the chair much too small for her long legs, and was leaning over to the little boy sitting next to her to hand him another brush. She didn't notice you directly, but the children's heads snapped up when you entered. Immediately, the pleasant work silence was a part of the past and you hurried to close the door behind you so that the commotion of the children jumping up and calling your name would not disturb the other classes. "(y/n)!" came from all around you as at least five kids clung to your legs at once and looked up at you. Their bright faces grinned at you, trying to attract your attention with tugs and pulls. As best you could, you greeted them by name as the chaos at the door now reached Eret. "What's going on? Why are we standing up and running around?" asked Eret, spinning around. As soon as she saw you, her mouth opened in surprise. "Darling, what are you doing here?" Standing up, her long skirt fell down, billowing around her legs with each step as she hurried to you. Because of all the kids around you, you could only give her a sort of half-hug, briefly wrapping your arms around her before one of the kids interjected and continued asking questions. "Can i show you what i have been painting?" one asked, while the other pulled on your top to show you her new glasses, only to be interrupted by a boy telling you about the last trip to the zoo. You looked at the held up picture with patience, told him what a talented artist you had in front of you, complimented the girl on her new glasses, and tousled the other boy's hair while he explained, completely oblivious to the fact that you were on the trip, why penguins were his favorite animal. In between, you kept looking up at Eret, reassuring yourself that you weren't going to disrupt her class, but she had already started bringing some of the water glasses to the small sink in one corner, where she was pouring the dirty water into the sink and adjusting the blue hair clips in her brown locks. After a few minutes of letting the kids talk, though, she came back around and clapped her hands three times. Smiling, she folded her hands in front of her. "I think we should let (y/n) take a breath, no? How about you just run over to the bathroom, wash your hands, and then we'll have breakfast together?" she asked, and immediately the kids let go of you. One

by one, they quietly disappeared down the hall to the washrooms in two lines. As soon as the last child had left the room and you could hear the sound of the water rushing down the hall to you, Eret was with you and pulled you into a deeper kiss with both hands on your hips. "Hello darling," she murmured against your lips and kissed you again. You laughed into the kiss, lifting a hand to her cheek, against which she leaned gently. "I see I've arrived just in time for breakfast," you began, after breaking away from her and finally getting around to reaching into your shoulder bag, from which you then pulled out a dark can. "Because you left yours on the kitchen table". Eret's eyes widened. Gratefully, she took the box from your hands. "I completely missed that, thank you so much, love. That you came all the way here for this, I certainly wouldn't have starved to death" she laughed. Heat crept up your neck and spread rapidly through your cheeks, making you look away, caught. "I just didn't want to waste the food," you explained your appearance with a lie. Well, half a lie. You definitely didn't want to throw the food away, but it was your heart in the end that had lured you here, the idea of seeing Eret back in her workplace, with the kids. "Mhmm," Eret nodded knowingly. "You know," she began and put a hand to your cheek, gently stroking the burning skin with her thumb "the kids are better at lying about who hasn't gotten dessert yet. You kinda need to practice that a little better, or just tell me you missed me." Cheekily, Eret tilted her head and grinned at the blush on your face, which only darkened

🏈 Foolish:

pe teacher in high school

teaches younger students but mostly older ones

very much the cool teacher that lets a kid sit out on the bench if they don´t feel well

the pe teacher that everyone wants

he gives his best to teach his students how they can get better and what they can do

runs around in sports clothes even if he has a break of only comes to school for a teachers meeting

wears a whistle around his neck

lessons are divided into a part where he goes through the curriculum and a part where the students can decide for themselves what they want to do

bets with students on football games and will definitely tease students who are not for the same team if they lose, however, is very salty and lets students run extra if his team loses and they make fun of it

has definitely already introduced you to his favorite class at a sports festival

there are annual teacher games where the students prepare different challenges for selected teachers and Foolish is chosen every year and you are there every year to cheer him on

his students are constantly trying to find out everything about him because he makes a secret out of everything to make him seem mysterious

is a total softie at home

rarely talks about school, but still takes sports very seriously. goes running every day and usually convinces you to come with him

sometimes gets in over his head and lies on the couch crying for you to pick him up. Makes you swear that you will never tell his students

The sunglasses on your nose bobbed along with your springy steps over the gravel path, shielding your eyes from the warm summer sun shining down on you from the bright blue sky. Clasping your hand around a cool water bottle and a lunch box, you followed the instructions of the kindly, elderly secretary who had patiently explained to you how to find the sports field where your boyfriend Foolish was currently at. You would think that after all the events you would be able to remember the way, but the school seemed infinitely large that you had not even been sure you were right until you spotted a sign to the locker rooms. It was good weather, not too hot, but warm enough for Foolish to take his class outside to the big athletic field, as he had told you at breakfast today. The breakfast after which he had forgotten to take his lunch, too stressed because you guys had chattered away while eating and he had nearly been running late. He had only called something between two bites of his bread, had jumped up and after a kiss on your forehead had disappeared in the hallway. You had only discovered the blue lunch box on the counter a little later. You could hear the loud whistle even before you discovered the sports field, hidden among a row of lush green oak trees, followed by a "GO GO GO! Pull through!" from your boyfriend, who you saw leaning against the metallic poles bordering the court moments later. His arms propped on the poles and his whistle between his lips, he cheered on the students running in laps and didn't even notice you as you stepped across the gravel path through the trees onto the athletic field and ran to him with slightly faster steps. "Don't slow down, guys!" shouted Foolish, as some students slowed their pace when they saw you coming, but before Foolish could follow their gaze, you had already arrived at his side and pressed the cold water bottle into his neck. The surprising coolness and wetness made Foolish whirl around to you with a squeaky "What?" and briefly you thought you saw a warning in his gaze, but then he recognized you. The corners of his mouth shot up into a wide grin that made every last bit of his teacher persona disappear from his eyes. "You!" he laughed, and you couldn't help but join in his excited laughter. "What are you doing here?" Grinning, you lifted your water bottle and lunch box, waving them around in front of his face. "I've been carrying your food after you again! Didn't you miss anything in your bag?" "How could I have forgotten? I was pretty sure I packed everything." You shook your head with a grin, then quickly stood on your tiptoes and pressed a kiss to his cheek. That didn't seem to be enough for him, though, because he tossed the lunchbox and bottle onto the pile of gym bags at his feet and pulled you into a real kiss. He probably wouldn't have let go of you if it weren't for a group of students who had interrupted their running to join you on the sidelines. "Are you his life partner?" you heard one girl ask, to which you immediately broke away from your boyfriend, your cheeks fiery red. Clearing your throat, you nodded and looked to Foolish. Torn as to whether he should now warn and remind his students about the endurance training, his gaze flitted between you and the small group of high schoolers until he sighed and leaned against the bar, seemingly giving up. The last few times you'd been at the games, you'd also directly attracted the attention of his class at the time, and after that he'd also had to sit back for a while because his students had completely ignored him, fascinated by you and eager to find out more about their teacher through you. Another boy was just screwing his water bottle back shut before turning to you. "Is Mr. G such a drill sergeant at home, too, or does he just like bossing around helpless students?" he asked with a cheeky grin, which only made Foolish cross his arms in front of his chest indignantly. Briefly, you squinted at him, unsure how much you wanted to tell about your personal lives, but Foolish gave you an approving nod.

"Well, that must be because of you" you put in laughing "At home, I have to constantly remind him to clean up the kitchen after cooking, he doesn't even remember his breakfast." Then you nudged him with your shoulder "He would most likely lose his pretty head if it wasn't stuck on his shoulders" "Hey!" exclaimed Foolish in protest, but you just grinned and poked your tongue out at him. You could see the student frantically storing and processing both the interaction and the bit of new information. It was safe to assume that he would probably have to deal with comments alluding to it in the future. Another girl stepped forward, busy tightening her braid as she turned to you, "Can you make him race us? He always says he is faster than us but never wants to prove it." At her question, the other students joined in a chorus of complaints about Foolish and approvals for the race, throwing their own opinions and quotes from your boyfriend into the mix, and with every word Foolish tried to mockingly defend himself. "Surely I don't have to justify why I don't get involved in races with students, I'm the teacher!" Then, however, he seemed to have had enough of arguing, because he grinned at the group, "Besides, I don't want you to cry afterwards because you lost to me. Yeah yeah complain all you want, you know you don't have a chance to win!" The students immediately jumped at this challenge, tearing up his words like predators tearing up their prey, and the quickest volunteers were whistled off the field, not to be missed; everyone in this class had the same ambition as their teacher, and after all, honor was the focus here. In a surprisingly short time, the racers were filtered out and stood with your boyfriend at the starting line, you stood with the rest at the railing from where the runners would be cheered on, even though you would probably be the only one on Foolish's side. You could hear that from the commotion. Before the race, Foolish had hung his whistle honorably around your neck and had promised you with a kiss to bring home the victory for you. Of course, you would cheer him on with every cell in your body. "Okay," Foolish called out, taking a step forward. "Why don't we make this a little more exciting? If I lose, I'll buy you all ice cream from the kiosk, but if I win, then your runners have to enter the school competition. Do we have a deal?" The promise of getting ice cream worked wonders on the group and you felt like they were getting a number more energetic, now yelling at the runners they had to win for them. You raised the whistle to your lips. Everyone got into the starting position. Briefly, you took a moment to watch Foolish with a cheeky grin as he- backside stretched in the air- squatted at the line, pressing his fingertips into the red sand. After a "Hey! You can stare after I win," you laughingly gave in and whistled for takeoff. And if Foolish winked at you after the race, an ice cream cone in hand and happy students all around you, you definitely wouldn't say that out loud.

🎭 Wilbur:

theater teacher in high school

is the running chaos, but an organized chaos

wears a long brown coat for simple dramatic effect, for the same reason his glasses are not real. Only you know that though his students are figuring it out

spends both his free hours at school and many hours at home writing plays

always carries a book with him and is often seen lying on the benches in the sun, deeply engrossed in his book

very, very enthusiastic in the rehearsals and normal lessons, he does everything, takes the ridiculousness out of some exercises by going on stage himself and acting it more extreme, so that his students feel more comfortable

weekly takes you to small theater performances by university students or theater groups, and once a month his class joins in. Will then organize a meal together and a conversation with the actors after the performance to ask questions or get tips. Gives you a bouquet of your favorite flowers on every date

his students are definitely your biggest fans, always starting to giggle when he takes your hand in his while walking or puts his arm around you at every opportunity

rolls out the red carpet in front of you and fulfills your every wish

you are present at the performances of his class, always in the front row and clapping the loudest

sometimes gets lost in work, then you practically have to pull him out of his office and take him out for some fresh air

hides notes with quotes from his favorite authors or love messages for you in your coat pockets

The posters on the large glass doors of the auditorium caught your eye as soon as you entered the building, the blue and red lettering throwing the words "Fight tyranny" at you and drawing the attention of every observer, whether they wanted it or not. At first glance, you would most likely stop, somewhat perplexed, and wonder why a school had been plastered with such posters and what principal would allow such propaganda, but take just a step closer, let yourself engage with the desired effect of the posters, and you would recognize the invitation to the school musical printed underneath. The musical had turned the school into an uncontrollable and yet not disturbing chaos, it had started with the hanging of the first poster -a two meters long cloth fluttering in the wind one morning from one of the windows, advertising a debate between three unknown parties-, and after that there had been no stopping the students. The auditorium was almost bursting at the seams when the day of this ominous debate had arrived, students crowding the rows of seats or sitting on the floor, all tense for what was about to happen. The secret was revealed when the drama class teacher, Wilbur Soot, your life partner and the one who told you every day about all the events surrounding the new play he was planning, opened the debate and six contestants took the stage in costume, trying to sell the three parties they represented, Pog, Swag and Coconut, as best they could to the curious students. Then, for two weeks, the actual election campaign was launched, selling the buttons you helped make, snack packs put together by the drama class, or printed t-shirts, to the students for the promise of their vote. All of this happened in the foreground, with Wilbur, as principal, sitting in the background hunched over his desk, school ropes in hand, writing what was arguably his greatest work: L'Manburg, the Musical. Since Will had thrown himself into the preparations with such enthusiasm, it had become a daily routine for you to remind him of things that he lost sight of, or very simple things that didn't fit into his picture of the whole, and which he thus ignored and then forgot. Mostly it was pens or post-it-notes hanging all over your apartment, which made for some moments when all you wanted to do was take a glass from the kitchen cupboard and find a yellow slip of paper on which was written in scribbled handwriting: "Text revision page 45, T: 'Do i shoot him, or do i shoot at the sky?'" or sketches flying around with ideas of costumes that instead of Will's desk suddenly lay in the bathroom next to the bathtub and were already half-drenched. Of course, you knew he meant no harm. He was an artist, this was his way of keeping his art alive, and he went to such lengths to please his students that you couldn't be mad at him for a pair of notes or a forgotten sock flying around. His distracted thoughts, however, were the reason you were eyeing the posters outside the auditorium and holding a full lunch box in your hands. If it weren't for you, he would put food on the back of the queue himself, and to prevent that, you had gone to his school. The glass doors where the posters hung were covered with black cloth, preventing even the slightest glimpse of the inside of the auditorium and hiding the work and rehearsals from prying students' eyes. You pushed down the handle of the right door, opened it just a crack to scurry through, and closed it again right behind you. When you turned around you were amazed. Will had told you about the rehearsals, but nothing even remotely resembled what was happening in front of you. The whole auditorium had been transformed, painted trees stuck to the curtained windows, chairs with green cloths and painted flowers served as bushes and stood at the edge of the large room, forming high hedges. Next to the stage, red-painted cardboard boxes were arranged into a brick house, on the roof of which three boys in costumes were sitting and looking at the stage itself, was where a white, slightly slanted, caravan made of

cardboard boxes stood, in front of which a brunette boy and a blond girl in blue and red uniforms were sitting on the green cloth of the meadow, listening to another, older brunette in a black hat, as he talked about the election. And in the middle of it all was Will, the arms of his white blouse rolled up and flew across the stage to move a flower pot on the trailer here and there, to help the blonde-haired girl with the sleeves of her uniform, or he disappeared briefly behind the curtain, where you could hear it clattering afterwards, before the previously stuck curtain could be pulled away again without any problems. Your entrance did not go unnoticed for long, you had a few moments to admire the carefully crafted stage set before the artist behind this masterpiece, let his gaze roam the room and saw you standing between the rows of seats. He immediately ran a hand through your brown locks, sorting them into an actual hairstyle instead of a jumbled tangle of curls, as he leapt off the stage smiling broadly. "Darling, what a surprise to see you here!" he called out to you as he walked, now drawing the attention of his students as well, who waved happily at you. "Will, this all looks amazing!" you gushed with a sweeping motion of your hand across the room. When Will got to you, he grabbed your hand, still hovering in the air, raised it in his hands, and gracefully turned you to face him so he could hug you to his chest. After that little turn, he leaned down to you to gently bump his nose against yours. "No, you look amazing," Will breathed a quick kiss, far too short for your liking, on your lips before pulling away from you again. His eyes fell on the yellow lunch box in your hands and his eyebrows shot up as he noticed that he seemed to have forgotten it at home. "I knew something was missing, my bag was lighter than usual and my stomach emptier," smiling gratefully he took the lunch box from you, though immediately reached for your now free hand and intertwined his cool long fingers with yours warmed by the pockets of your jacket. "Come, my love, we were just about to start the first rehearsal in costume." Hand in hand, you let him pull you through the rows of chairs, covered with the colorful jackets and school bags of the 20 or so students in the drama class, to the front row, where he faced the stage and clapped his hands. "Can you all come over here for a minute, please?" he shouted loud enough for the technicians and helpers backstage to hear him.One by one, the students climbed off the sets, came out from behind the curtain, and sat down on the edge of the raised stage, where they all waved at you. Smiling, you waved back. "As you can see we have a very special guest today and if you all agree we will perform our rehearsal for the first time in front of an audience, but only if no one has a problem with it." You weren't surprised that no one spoke up, you liked this class as much as they liked you and yet you felt honored to be accepted by them. After a quick kiss, Will is gone again, helping everyone to their positions, and you can hear his motivational speech for the play from behind the closed curtain, between all the running back and forth and the quiet giggling of the young actors. A smile stole onto your lips as you listened to him. "I am so so proud of each and every one of you! I may have written the piece, but you breathe life into it with every cell that burns for this project. But not only could I not have done it without you guys, I couldn't have done it without the love of my life sitting out there wanting a great performance. We're all going to do our best, okay? Remember, mistakes aren't bad, you'll get help from our prompters if you have a lyric hangup, and we all know, after all, that rehearsals aren't over yet. Just have fun, live your roles and as long as you show that, everything will be fine. Break a leg!" Wilbur was a kind teacher, one who always looked out for his students and would not let a student down, even if it meant overtime and extra work for him. If his students

weren't performing for the joy of it, it would be for him, to show him how grateful they were to him. Backstage, things quieted down, the bright overhead light turned off and got replaced with a warm cone of spotlight aimed at the center of the closed curtain. Will darted around the side of the curtain to the edge, jumped down gracefully, and ran on silent soles to join you in the front row. Just in time for the rattling opening of the red curtain, he settled on your right side. Eyes fixed on the stage, you leaned into his lifted arm against his shoulder. "Love of your life, huh?" you whispered under held breath. Will's chest vibrated from his soft laughter beneath you and he leaned down slightly toward you, gently placing his lips on your temple for a loving kiss. "Too dramatic?" he whispered back, but you felt his smile. "No." You looked to the stage where the brunette in the hat opened the door to the trailer and in the warm light of the spotlights beckoned a group of young people in uniforms to join him. A story began, a story of a country striving for freedom and independence. "Never too dramatic, always just perfect."

🧁 Niki:

women's studies teacher in high school

teaches the experiences and contributions of diverse groups of women in society, about the social role of women and their involvement in areas such as health, history, and political activism

very politically engaged and will stop the class to watch important news with her students

colored her hair pink after the old principal made stricter rules for girls and even after he changed schools she stayed with the pink hair

always there for her students, if they need help in school but also in their private life

makes sure her students are alright, the kind of teacher that asks you after class if everything is okay because you were quiet in class or looked sad

she bakes a lot since it calms her after a stressful day in school (it´s not easy teaching teenage boys about those topics but she manages it)

your place is full of books from women´s fiction to cookbooks to history or poems

quiet dates where you two go outside in the park to paint, read or eat her baked goods

holds your hand whenever and wherever she can

surprises you with baked gifts but also letters or an annotated book she read with you in mind

📊 Schlatt:

politics professor at a university

rough exterior, but all the softer core

always wears suit trousers, shirt and tie, because a well-kept appearance makes a significant difference in how you are treated

because he works many days a week at uni, he always takes at least one day off, which you both spend together

has the reputation of being a very strict and often mean professor, but no one in his classes complains themselves

takes his classes very seriously, finds a good education in politics and science important

knows how hard the subject matter can be sometimes, which is why he shows films about it, should it fit into his plan

engages in dialogues with students rather than having them work in the book or read from slides, but when he writes on the board it is illegible

political discussions in which the students have to take different points of view are a big part of the assessment

keeps his private life very private, as it is none of his students' business at the end of the day

when he corrects exams it is either at school or at home in his office, he does not mix his work with your life

he spoils you 100%, invites you to expensive dinners, lavishes you with gifts, takes you to fancy banquets or operas

often makes jokes, but loves you more than anything else

The chilly hallway lay quiet and ghostly before you as you walked through it, past signs for new clubs and activities that had sprouted with the first flowers on these unexpectedly quick spring days, now advertising the activities in the sun with bright colors. Warm light streamed in through the tall windows, trying to lure you back into the fresh air, like all the sunbathing students you had passed before entering the building, enjoying their free time after the last lecture. No one in their right mind would hide behind closed doors in this weather, none except apparently your boyfriend. You weren't surprised, however, that Schlatt, of all people, was probably the only one who stayed in the building while everyone else took advantage of spring. Schlatt would most likely also miss the most beautiful day of the year because he was too busy with his work and only afterward ask why everyone was suddenly in such a good mood and tanned. This is exactly what would happen today if you hadn't spontaneously come up with the idea of bringing him his forgotten lunch and thus possibly getting him out of his lecture hall, his comfort zone. His room was also the only one whose door was not locked and the soft rustling of paper, as well as the clicking of a ballpoint pen, could be heard through the narrow crack in the door. You raised your hand to the door and softly rapped your knuckles against the wood. "No, I'm busy," Schlatt's slightly strained voice rang out and he was already starting to protest, when you pulled the door open wider and stepped into the doorway. "Too busy?" you began teasingly "Can't even I steal a few minutes of your precious time?" As you had expected, Schlatt was sitting in front of the many empty rows of seats in the auditorium at his desk, on which sheets upon sheets of printed paper were piled up and which were divided into two piles, one of unedited and one on which red notes and marks decorated the otherwise black and white pages, and between them, Schlatt was bent over another sheet, black glasses on his nose and a red pencil set to another note. When you had entered, he hadn't even looked up at first but had continued to scribble on the paper and mumble over some sentence, though at your voice his head had snapped up. "(y/n)! What are you doing here? Have you texted me or did I miss a call?" he asked, more to himself than actually addressing you, and dug out his phone to check if he hadn't missed a message from you. "No," you hummed, and confused, he looked over his glasses at you. Playfully hurt, you raised your hand to your chest. "Here I am trying to surprise you for once, and then I'm not even greeted properly. Aren't you happy to see your partner at all?" Schlatt, meanwhile, had stood up and leaned against the edge of his desk, just rolling his eyes at your words before holding out his hand for you. "You might as well join the theater, you're better at pretending to people than you are at fooling me." You were about to walk to him, in fact, and had already taken a step forward, when a group of teenagers ran past one of the hall's many windows, and despite the closed shutters, which let the sunlight into the room only in small streaks, you saw the laughter on their faces that made you pause. Schlatt noticed your hesitation and raised his brows questioningly, continuing to hold out his hand to you, expecting you to take it as you normally would so that he could greet you. "You know what? Why don't you come here?" you then asked him. Schlatt tilted his head slightly. He tried to figure out where the mischief in your voice and face had come from but failed because you just clicked your tongue challengingly. "Or are you tied to your desk, old man? Sitting here in the dark even though the sun is shining outside, working on exams that probably still have time to be corrected." You could tell by his expression that you were right with every word you said, and slowly your boyfriend's serious facade broke and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly upward. He didn't want to give in quite

yet. However, you were also now determined to get him out of that room and into the fresh air before he once again came home only in the dark and had not experienced any of it. Now you were the one who held out your hand, "Come on Scrooge, I'm going to force you outside now." Hand in hand, you pulled him out of the building a few minutes, and a proper greeting later. Immediately, Schlatt took a deep breath and closed his eyes. His normally brown hair glowed golden like honey in the sun, as did his eyes when he opened his lids again and looked at you. "Thank you for coming," He pressed a kiss to your cheek, which you leaned into. You smiled at him. "Who else would kick your butt if not me?"

Aries Moon observations 🔥

*based on my own experience

Moon signs observation series

Work by: astrobydalia on Tumblr

🔥 You can spot an Aries moon by their drive. If they like you, they’re gonna show love by encouraging you. If you tell them you have a certain goal they will hype you up, boost your confidence and transmit you an incredible motivation. Or if you feel lost in your drive, they’ll give you suggestions and remind you everything you can do. This is their way of comforting people too. If you’re upset, Aries moons are not the type to tell you everything is gonna be okay and empathy is not their forte, but they’re gonna show you love and support by literally hyping you up, they’ll make you remember who tf you are and basically have a “get up and get them bitch you got this” energy. Everytime I cried, the Aries moon friends I had always told me the same: get up and do something that makes you feel good. Get up and DO, that is their motto. That’s how they live. If you’re crying about someone? They’re gonna be the type to tell you to get up and move on bc you can do it and you’re that bitch.

🔥 Unless the chart says otherwise, they’re not the best at giving advice tho. Their advice is always gonna be basically “hmm that’s a bad idea but if you wanna do it go ahead”

🔥 They hardly let things get them down. If an Aries moon is in their feelings (any feelings), they’re gonna wanna move, work, just do stuff bc that’s how they channel all the fire they have inside and I’m telling you, that’s no little flame. They feel things so intensely similar to Scorpio moons but the difference is that Aries moons usually don’t get consumed or eaten by that. Aries moons usually have a physical way to channel that emotional intensity and after that, it’s like nothing happened and they can even laugh it off. They could throw a tantrum, go on a rant, do something creative, work on something etc. Aries moons need to let out their feelings bc they are prone to rage and if they don’t channel that and bottle it up they can become resentful and petty similar to underdeveloped Scorpio placements, but less manipulative and more childish.

🔥 Aries moons also either high-key or low-key love drama. Even if you wouldn’t discribe them as conflictive, they always find themselves involved in some drama. And again, they’re not intense soap-opera tragedies like Scorpio, Arien moon’s dramas are more like high-school dramas. If they get in this situations purposefully or not it depends, but they don’t mind friction and you can tell that it gives them life. If they’re not involved in drama themselves, I’ve seen a lot of Aries moons enjoying reality shows, talk shows, movies and shows like gossip girl or mean girls.

🔥 Another way of them to show love is by playfully fighting or insulting. I’ve literally had Aries moons tell me “I wanna argue with you bc I love you”. But they do it in a very playful way where you can tell they’re just toying with you and creating friction bc they like that action. You could even have very heavy and heated conversations with an Aries moon and they’ll eventually come back to you and they’re gonna like you even more bc you gave them that heat.

🔥 Which leads me to my next point: Aries moons obssesion with thrills, more specifically first-time thrills. Aries moon is a placement commonly associated with cheaters and non-commital people and unfortunately based on experience I can’t say this is untrue 😬 I’ve seen a lot of Aries moons open to commitment tho but they’re the type to prefer casual dating before committing and those who didn’t prefer casual dating at all had strong Capricorn/Saturn in their chart. They can subconsciously end up in casual dating, being “the other man/woman” and yes I’ve seen a lot of Aries moons cheat but I’ve also seen Aries moons being fiercely loyal if they really consider you their partner in crime

🔥 Commitment aside, all Aries moons are driven by impulse, they tend to jump into relationships too quickly and they are also frequently known for going back to their ex. They’re the type to feel total rage towards their ex and be like “fuck you” one day and going back to that same ex the next. Us pisces moons got a reputation for being naive and I don’t deny that, but seriously have you ever met an Aries moon??? They are the personification of recklessness. They’re the type to throw themselves into the wolf’s den 1000 times over and over again and when you ask them why tf they keep doing it they’re always like “idk🤷🏽‍♀️” and never wanna think deeper into it not even for their own good. And they do this with relationships, friendships, dangerous or unhealthy behaviors, etc. Aries moons just like a very raw thrill one way or another, even if it’s just with a sport. They seem to feel alive when they don’t think about stuff and just fucking do it. For the sake of doing it. I don’t think very highly of Aries moons in that sense to be honest, they never seem to emotionally evolve past their impulses and tho they can be great people they always feel so emotionally immature to me.

🔥 The bright side of this impulsive nature is that there’s usually a very raw genuineness to Aries moons. They usually tell it like it is and their intentions are usually very clear even if they say otherwise. You always have to trust acts more that words, but this is specially true for Aries moons. They express emotionally through action. When they don’t let rage get the best of them, they are the most fun people to be around and they can be very charismatic and have a sexual vibe to them.

🔥 Very unapologetic people

🔥 Aries moons are the most emotionally selfish and self-serving moon sign I have to be honest with you. Again, they’re not bad people, but like I said they’re so emotionally reckless that sometimes they can legit find it hard to understand anything beyond themselves, and even if they do, everything just goes back to them. But this is not an egocentric Leo way, is more, like I said, reckless, like most of the times they don’t even realize. They are just very primal and simple in their emotionality and it’s honestly very hard to find an Aries moon that is malicious.

🔥 Aries moons aren’t aggressive, they can be but I’ve never seen an Aries moon being aggressive, but some of them live on defensive mode 24/7. It’s like they always asume people are gonna judge them on what they do and can easily take comments as an attack and adopt an attitude of entitlement towards all their actions. This is a behavior I’ve seen on insecure Aries moons. Those who are confident literally don’t give a fuck about any judgment and they just feel naturally entailed to their actions and feelings.

🔥 When it comes to mothers, Aries moons have allegedly a complicated relationship with their mother. Based on experience I’d say there are two types of moms when it comes to Aries moons. In both cases, their mom if very feisty and dominant, but for some Aries moons this energy manifests as them seeing their mom as a worrior, an inspiration, etc. Aries moons with this type of vision towards their mom usually ADORE her and speak very highly of her and admire her and you’ll hear them say things like “my mom faught hard to raise me and protect me” and stuff like that. She is always a source of motivation and inspiration for their own drive. They could have a relationship with their mom based on mutual protection and encouragement. For other Aries moons, their mom could be a very rocky topic for them. They could feel strong rage and resentment towards her for very different reasons, but the overall energy is that this feisty and dominant nature in their mom made them feel limited. They could basically see their mom as a dictator who they want to stand up to but can’t. They could feel like their mom was selfish (or in some cases abusive) and like she never cares at all about what they want or need. They could very often feel like their mom takes their power away and like she tells them “you can’t do this or that” way too often. All of this causes in the Aries moon individual a lot of internal rage towards their mom, but also in general.

[yamalegacy]

can you do nsfw headcanons with mt lady please?

can i? can i do n/sfw hcs for one of my favourite characters? of fucking course i am! and i will happily do so bc i'm big time horned monster for lil miss mt lady! and well, since i didn't know where to start, in true super extra french fashion, went overboard and finished the n/sfw alphabet for her 💛

i’d already done a, d, l, m, t, y but i added them to this post so that i can have a full alphabet in one post!

cw: mentions of dom/sub dynamics, rough sex, threesomes, dry humping, finger sucking and slight oral fixation probably, mentions of so many things tbh. yū is a brat. also, pubic hair and stretch marks? idk man

⚠️ MDNI not so casual reminder for minors to not interact with this post ⚠️

A — AFTERCARE ( what are they like after sex? )

she is a bottom through and through and a pillow princess, so get ready to have to take care of her because she gets even lazier than usual after a good fuck. she can get whiny and demanding, asking for a bath or tea or both, but you’ll always be rewarded with cuddles and kisses. if she doesn’t fall asleep, that is.

B — BODY PART ( which body part do they like the most? )

big time ass and thighs girl right here. she enjoys a handful (or two handfuls, you know), girl loves a shapely ass that feels nice in her hands. she can’t keep her hands off of a nice ass.

C — CUM ( any headcanon about cum )

she complains a lot about basically all things cum related at first lbr, not to the point of complaining about going down on you (well, depending on how much you come, really...). it’ll take a while for yū to accept to kiss you after you eat her out, but you’ll catch her moaning at the taste of her own arousal more than once. and well. maybe sucking on your fingers after you fucked her turns her on a whole fucking lot. don’t expect her to admit it out loud tho.

D — DREAMS ( do they have sex dreams? what kind? how do they react? )

fairly regular kinky dreamland visitor. yū hates her sex dreams though. she always wakes up just when things are getting good, so she wakes up wet, needy and desperate every time. if you aren’t sleeping together that night, she’ll send you messages to complain, or even call you, hoping for a quickie over the phone. if you’re in her bed, she won’t care what time it is, she’ll wake you up and demand that you make her come. if you ignore her and go back to sleep, be ready to deal with a grumpy pro hero all day long (poor kamui woods has heard her complain about it way too many times and wishes he could forget everything she’s told him, especially that one time she dreamed about a threesome with you and him).

E — EXPERIENCE ( how much experience do they have? )

a lot less than you’d expect her to. yū is still young and she’s been extremely busy trying to become a pro hero so she hasn’t had that much time to experiment. she’s had a few partners, but it’s mostly been vanilla experiences for her.

F — FAVORITE POSITION ( what is their favorite sex position? )

she likes when things are close and personal, so missionary is always good with her, honestly. she loves being able to see your face and kiss you when you fuck her. yū also enjoys being bent over your lap, so that you can fuck her with your fingers and pull at her hair — learn how to multi-task, my friend, and she’ll be putty in your hands.

G — GRAB ( where do they like to have their hands on you the most? )

ass ass ass. thighs. ass. there’s very few things that yū loves more than a good ass and she will never stop touching it when it’s within her reach. when she is acting jealous or possessive, she tends to grab you by the wrists. if she’s still feeling possessive when you get home, she will crawl on top of you and keep her fingers wrapped around your wrists for a while, and then intertwine your fingers. yū has a habit of squeezing, it’s a way for her to make sure that you’re there, with her, that you aren’t going to go away.

H — HOT & BOTHERED ( what are they like when turned on? )

oh boy. is she a wild one! no matter what, she will be needy, but it might manifest in two very different ways. 1) she’ll give you the cold shoulder and pretend that she totally isn’t horny and desperate, she’s stubborn like that, but she sucks at hiding those things from you; she always presses her thighs together, that’s her biggest tell 2) she’ll just outright initiate intimacy, kiss your neck, straddle your lap and grind on your thigh.

I — INTIMACY ( how caring are they during/after sex? )

yū isn’t exactly the most gentle of lovers in general, even outside of your sex life. she is good with gentle touches, like caressing you, touching your hair, but when it comes to sex... little miss pillow princess expects you to take care of her. and she can be pretty demanding about it. but her habit of holding your hands is one of the ways she shows she cares.

J — JACK OFF ( any masturbation headcanon )

when adrenaline sets down after a day at work, yū needs the release more than anything, it’s also a really good way for her to relieve some stress. being a pro hero isn’t easy every day after all! she tends to want to make it quick because she doesn’t have all that much patience, which is exactly why she avoids penetration when touching herself; she’s all about rubbing her clit and vibrators — and she knows how to make it rough and quick.

K — KINK ( favorites? which ones do they keep secret? )

(semi) public sex, edging, overstimulation and multiple orgasms. dominance and any display of dominance that might be associated with a dom/sub dynamic, really. yū is a sub and it shows. she’ll complain about orgasm control because she’s not getting the release she needs, but it’s one of her favorite things. she has a bit of an oral fixation, bit of an obsession with sucking your fingers and licking them clean after you’ve fucked her, but she... well, she doesn’t want to admit it tho. it’s not that much of a secret since it’s become extremely obvious to you. on the other hand, she wouldn’t mind trying some roleplay/petplay and a bit more of degradation, but she sure af would mind saying it out-loud.

L — LOCATION ( what is their favorite place to have sex? )

being the pillow princess that she is, yū will always favor a comfortable bed over anything else, but it doesn’t mean that she doesn’t enjoy sex in other places. the two of you have become well acquainted with the couch at her agency (which has led to some awkward situations when you realized too late that you weren’t actually alone in the building).

M — MOTIVATION ( what turns them on? )

extremely sensitive and painfully easy to turn on. you barely have to try to turn her on most of the time, really. run your fingers on her inner thighs, grab her by the waist, whisper in her ear about what you want to do to her and she’ll be ready to go. yū will complain a lot if you do it in public, but that’s only because it gets her turned on in record time! hearing your voice, your praises, spurs her on better than anything else.

N — NOPE ( any turn offs or hard limits? )

she is a bit claustrophobic and her quirk makes it dangerous for her to feel trapped, which is why you have a safeword. she doesn’t like being handcuffed or tied down unless she knows she has an easy way out. she likes when you sit on her face, but not for too long, for the same reasons.

O — ORAL ( do they like giving or receiving? a preference? )

yū is an oral enthusiast, of course. she prefers receiving (she isn’t a pillow princess for no reason), but she enjoys pleasing you and being good for you, so there’s not a doubt she enjoys going down on you.

P — PACE ( fast or slow? )

her impatience makes it harder for her to enjoy slow at times. she wants it hard and fast (partly because it’s much easier than dealing with feelings). and well, when you take it slow and edge her... she is so sensitive that she’s come without permission on accident more than once because she just can’t control it. fast is easier because then she knows you just expect her to come.

Q — QUICKIE ( are they up for a quickie? )

always. all the time. never not up for a quickie.

R — ROMANCE ( do they like romantic gestures to set the mood? )

while she likes the idea on paper, the whole concept of taking the time to enjoy the moment, have nice scented candles and a warm bath, and she might put some effort into it when she has days off tbh. but it’s mt lady we’re talking about, you should know better than to expect all that romance fantasy! yū still knows how to surprise you from time to time.

S — STAMINA ( how long can they last? )

yū is a pro hero. she has years of training behind her and regularly works up to stay in shape, so she definitely has the stamina to go several rounds! but depending on how tiring her day has been. honestly, she might not make it to a first orgasm one some days, but those are rare occasions.

T — TALK ( what is their dirty talk like? )

yū isn’t necessarily the best with words; she’s all for kisses and touches. but if you’re touching her the right way, she’ll tell you how good you are. she won’t hesitate to tell you that she’s all yours and that she’s wet just for you.

U — UNFAIR ( how much do they tease? )

this woman. she knows your weaknesses, she knows what turns you on, what makes you want her the most. she likes to provoke more than to really tease; she wears the outfits that you love the most on her, the cute bras that push her tits up just right, the pretty sets of lingerie that she’s bought to look nice for you. if she’s feeling mean, she’ll swat your hands away when you try to touch her, but honestly, it won’t last long because. well. once again, yū is extremely impatient and there’s no much that can be done about it.

V — VOLUME ( how loud are they? )

makes a lot of noises but isn’t super loud in general. moans and whines, a lot of them. she makes the prettiest noises, honestly.

W — WILD CARD

you can't tell me that with her quirk she doesn't have stretch marks. she kinda hates them and is glad that her hero costume hides them, but seriously, just take a minute to kiss them and run your fingers over them. funnily enough, while she hates her own stretch marks, she could spend hours appreciating yours.

X — X-RAY ( any headcanon about their bodies and grooming habits )

yū takes really good care of herself and her body — she doesn’t like to shave everything off when it comes to her pubic hair, she keeps it clean and trimmed tho. she has very nice ethics when it comes to her appearance. shaves, no waxing, she hates the idea of having to go to a salon and have a stranger touch her, even if it’s their job.

Y — YEARNING ( how desperate do they tend to be? )

mt. lady is queen of yearning. she’s also queen of pretending that she doesn’t miss you all the time. if work takes over her life for a few days and she can’t see you for a while, you can expect her to just be glued to you the second she sees you again. she’ll be extra needy and probably want to ride your thigh. she wouldn’t be able to let you go. and yet she’ll try (and fail) to pretend like she didn’t miss you and wasn’t desperate to feel you again.

Z — ZZZZ… ( how quickly do they fall asleep? )

well... it’s happened a few times that she fell asleep embarrassingly quickly after an orgasm... let’s say you’ve stopped counting how many times she’s fallen asleep with your fingers in her mouth.

What are the major details that confused you about the Hound blurb? The major one that stood put to me was the "way of the farmer opposed to the sword" thing which felt very...un-Cú Chulainn. Also, if you don't mind expanding further, which details didn't you question/be confused by?

and also for anon:

okay so it is like. 2am so there are not going to be any sources here but i can't sleep so here goes!! i will go through this blurb line by line and give youse my thoughts

In 50 BCE,

reasonable. this is roughly the right time period for when the ulster cycle is set. maybe marginally earlier than i'd place cú chulainn, but i'm talking a few years, nothing to get worked up about.

Morrigan, the goddess of war,

fine. normally i'm wary of pantheonising impulses with regard to irish characters (almost none of them can be identified as a god of anything in particular, it doesn't work like that) but tbh the morrigan is like, the most plausible exception to that, so whatever. normally her name has the definite article attached to it because it's kind of a species term as well but whatevs.

has become restless as a long-lasting peace settles over Ireland.

dubious. closest i can think of to peace being reference in any texts is togail bruidne da derga talking about conaire mor's reign being like, prosperous and peaceful and whatever, and even there you've got díberg (plundering/reaving) which is what eventually fucks him over and starts the otherworldly hell spiral situation. that's roughly the right period here but conaire's doom proves you don't have to do much to nudge peace into war, and connacht and ulster are at each other's throats for years before cú chulainn comes on the scene anyway

Deciding the time of peace must end, she chooses Setanta, the nephew of the king of the north, to become her ward.

hmm. i mean. like, this isn't the WEIRDEST choice they could have made. it's still completely made-up, don't get me wrong -- cú chulainn has a lot of different foster parents in different texts and they don't agree with each other but none of them ever mentions the morrígan. but like, they do have a connection of some sort, as evidenced by their conversations. and there's that one moment in the r1 boyhood deeds where little cú chulainn is out on the battlefield and hears her (not sure which name is used here) calling out to him and it like. motivates him to do some deeds or whatever, and i guess you could extrapolate that into some kind of teaching capacity.

so like. could be weirder. if you're gonna pick anyone, you could do worse. still seems weird to me! but not on its own a major issue, i could get past this and consider it a Fun But Unorthodox Creative Decision

(the fact that she tries to seduce him in the táin probably wouldn't get in the way of this considering sleeping with his teachers/foster-mothers is far from unheard of where cú chulainn is concerned)

After a young Setanta slays the demon-hound of Cullan, he becomes known as Cú Cullan—The Hound of Cullan.

weird spelling choices, they could have at least bothered to use the genitive properly. also the hound isn't a demon, it's a ferocious watchdog -- making it sound all Otherworldly and Hellish like this kinda confuses the issue of why he would need to take its place. he needs to take its place because the cattle and people still need protecting because it is a watchdog!! but whatevs, again, it's a brief summary so they can't exactly give us all the details and this is not actively objectionable

As Cú Cullan grows older, it is apparent that an extraordinary power lies within him … and a great darkness.

ugh boring. this makes it sound like he's going to be ~tortured~ and angsty about it. give me an unapologetic murder teen please. is the ríastrad dark? sure i guess, if you're going to be boring about it. it's more like, grotesque neon in my head

When he chooses the quiet life of a farmer over the sword,

this would fucking never happen on like five different levels. obviously like anyone who has ever read anything about cú chulainn can see that this is not in his nature. he is never going to choose a quiet life. this is the kid who tricked his way into taking arms before everyone thought he was ready. also juxtaposed with the "darkness" comment makes it sound like he would Angst his way into this quiet life which. again. have you seen this kid. he is an unapologetic murder teen

the only thing i can think of that might make him temporarily want to walk away is connla's death which... depends where you position that in the timeline really, he does seem a bit fucked up by it and maybe he'd want a holiday although i can see that lasting precisely 5 minutes before someone pissed him off enough for him to murder them. but if he's being raised by the morrígan i can't see him going to train with scáthach so then he'd never meet aífe and therefore connla would never be born so that wouldn't happen. so like. whatever.

but also like. he would not become a farmer. he just wouldn't! it doesn't work! the ireland of the stories is super hierarchical, right? and this blurb has already fucking told us that he's the king's nephew (canon) so we can tell that being a farmer is Not His Place. when we see upper class figures becoming menial labourers in texts, like in cath maige tuired, it's because Things Are Fucked, Shit's Gone Wrong. people don't just decide to change their entire social class on a whim lmfao

if cú chulainn really wanted to turn his back on being a warrior he could probably make recourse to certain other Suitable Professions ... his grandad's a druid so he might have a route into that, though his dad's not so that might fuck things up a bit bc it's one of those things that's usually inherited. he does give "wisdom" in at least one text though and we also know he can write (he carves riddles in ogham in the táin) and he composes verses on various occasions so idk, maybe something in a poetic direction, though again, usually requires two generations of inheritance to be a real poet and not just a lower-class bard. warrior's kinda the main thing he's got open to him tbh. but farming? i'm not a legal expert but as far as i'm aware based on what i have read, that would fuck shit up

more likely an upset cú chulainn would just go off in search of an adventure somewhere conveniently far away until he'd calmed down (alba, or the tyrrhenian sea, or -- if we're going to get early modern about it -- somewhere like india, which frequently gets thrown into the texts with absolutely no cultural context and it's always hilarious)

Morrigan, angry at the betrayal,

of the entire social order, yes,

instigates an invasion of his homeland

i mean. if they intend this to be the táin then.... táin bó regamna does kinda make the morrígan responsible for it? not in the sense of triggering the pillow talk argument that it's in the book of leinster -- it's her getting up to her usual cow-nicking behaviours for shits and giggles. [note to readers: it is probably for more than shits and giggles but did i mention it's 2am]

but all in all, not particularly out of character that she would be at least some way responsible for this so i can vibe with this. echtra nerai also supports the TBR explanation with her fucking around with otherworldly cows and pissing people off so, yeah, whatever. the morrígan engineered this. sure.

and Cú Cullan must challenge fate itself

this is probably a controversial stance but fate feels like a difficult concept to apply to medieval irish texts. like are people sometimes Doomed? yes. there are prophecies, there are gessi, there's all manner of otherworldly fuckery that can trip you up. is that the same thing as fate? no idea. considering cú chulainn comes out alive from the táin though and his doom prophecies don't catch up to him for like, at least another decade, maybe 16 years depending on who you listen to, hard to see how that would apply here

to keep the goddess at bay.

again like she IS causing fuckery in the táin but also it's like... one time. really not the main character. but she or maybe just some crows, hard to say, do get implicated in the death tale so maybe they're doing what people often do and conflating the two? even though there's like 10-16 years in between them?

anyway as you can see i don’t think it’s wholly terrible / i’m not completely thinkshaming it. like, having cú chulainn raised by the morrígan is unorthodox but it could be a fun and creative direction so i don't object to it. making cú chulainn get sad about murder and choose to be a farmer is just fucking laughable tho, and makes me doubt their characterisations in general. so that's offputting and would probably make me think twice about buying it, if that had ever been on the cards.*

and of course sure, their cú chulainn can be a Sad Boy Who Likes Sheep, but that means he's not the cú chulainn of medieval irish lit / irish myth, because that cú chulainn is a feral murder teen who keeps killing his friends and also is way too high social status to ever be a farmer, and whose only relationship to livestock is as the watchdog who kills anyone trying to harm them (which is an important role on a farm! but like. not the same thing as Being A Farmer. mostly because it involves more murder and is essentially just an extension of his role as a warrior. or rather the other way around. he promises to protect mag muirthemne as a watchdog and this like. gets extended into him becoming its sole defender)

this has been my analysis of this blurb i hope you enjoyed it

it's now 2.30am i should try and sleep now that i've exorcised a few thoughts from my head

*as i mentioned in the tags of my other post, i don't tend to read graphic novels due to disability stuff. they're much harder for me to understand and follow than prose, to the point where some are incomprehensible, so i don't really enjoy them. there are a few i've read, but they tend to be short ones, and i'm usually not reading them in order, just admiring the art separately from the text. so it's unlikely i would read a graphic novel of this size anyway.

[jayflrt]

ahhhh i think tumblr ate it but i was just saying how i noticed deceit was released and i'll use as motivation when i finish some big tests this week (i will literally start reading it the second i hand in my last test on friday)

and omg manifesting the digipacks for you !🕯

cb shows for me are usually either at like 4/5am (depending on daylight savings) or 8/9am which is when i need to be in school at so </3 there's enough clips going around for me to know the main parts tho so im not too worried abt missing them haha 😅 DURING THE SUMMER THO i make sure to watch it (since i only dont sleep at normal hours then anyways ahsjjf) i watched tbz's cb show for thrill ride and maverick ✨️ thought they were on naver live so the video was like vertical and i didnt like that 👎

well besides the tests i have this week im doing pretty well! i also recently joined my school's prom committee so we're planning for that and its very exciting since it'll be the first in person even we can host since the pandemic 😭! (i also need to find a prom dress and i dont want to break the bank yet in case there's a world tour or smth)

i also just saw the multiple cases of plagiarism and it genuinely upsets me so much how people cant respect other's intellectual property (it also freaking happens like every week in here or smth like what 😭😭) but that last one was rly fishy bc they found it so fast;;; it rly sometimes does feel like people just do it on purpose for fun with a new blog and make people feel like shit and just deactivate and thats so 👺👺 its just a low move like have people rly not. have anything better to do 😭

AND ITS MONDAY boooo (well tuesday since its past midnight for me) lets hope the rest of the week can go on peacefully 🤧 i hope everything else is well on your end too (besides the situation mentioned above)

- 🌻

I THINK IT DID EAT IT :((( because im seeing the wrong number in my ask box for the number of asks i can see in it,, like it won't show up even tho there's supposed to be more :(( AHH GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR TESTS THO 🤧 SCREW DECEIT IT CAN WAIT <333 so does that mean your exams are over tomorrow ?? :o 

im so nervous for the digipacks HAHAH like i dont mind any member i get BUT IM SO IMPATIENT I WANT IT NOW >:(( omg tbh i like watching comeback shows more than award shows so i like staying up to watch them 🥰 but it's not the end of the world if i miss it bc ppl record + upload clips HAHAH i even watched a whole treasure comeback show live with addy when i didnt even stan treasure 😭 HELP and for enha i remember she facetimed me so i could show her their live on my phone when i had no idea who they were 💀

ALSO HAVE FUN WITH PROM COMMITTEE !! that sounds so fun actually omg D; i hope it's a good experience for you !! 💗 omg prom dress shopping is so exciting :'') what color/style were you thinking of ?? my gown was pink i loved it so much 💖 

and right,,, these recent plagiarism cases have been making me rlly suspicious and kinda sick :// i seriously hope people grow up and realize that internet clout ultimately amounts to absolutely nothing. plagiarizing people's work..... how low are you going to stoop for a few notes 😞 also i was a little tipsy when i saw the ask that i got plagiarized LMFAO i was literally telling addy why couldnt they plagiarize me when i was sober 😭 but on a more serious note about that ask..... it was literally 10 min after the fic was posted and the account was new and not visible and the post didnt show in the tags so im VERY confused :/ 

but i hope the rest of your week is smooth sailing love !! and good luck on those exams again 🥰 thank you for such kind words HAHAH i think it'll be a good weekend !! just busy :'') hope you have a wonderful day/night <33
