The mysterious Mole Man is a subterranean Beast Person with an affinity for spying and collecting precious gemstones in the anime Vision of Escaflowne. He is one of the most enigmatic characters in this anime series because his motives are very difficult to fathom. Is he a good guy who is just socially awkward due to his eccentric lifestyle or is he really a sinister double agent?

This is my Picmix composition with an animation still from the original anime series. The background picture is Natural Bridge Caverns in Texas, USA.

Silmarillion AU Where all the Elves are Hobbits and the Stakes are Significantly Lower:

Finwe is mayor of his part of the Shire, happily married to both Miriel and Indis because they all have two hands

Miriel doesn't die after childbirth she just goes off on a trip to find new artistic inspiration and doesn't come back

Don't worry she eventually shows back up again– turns out she got lost and a kind elvish warrior named Vaire helped her find her way back

Feanor has a good relationship with his siblings, although he and Nolofinwe have engaged in several bouts of passive-aggressive one-upsmanship

The most famous of these ended with Nolofinwe swimming several miles across a lake in winter to prove that he was the more dedicated brother. Feanor agreed after telling him off for being reckless.

The Silmarils aren't pseudo-holy gemstones here, they're a set of three really intricately carved pipe-weed pipes that the Finweans pull out on ceremonial occasions

Morgoth isn't a fallen god he's just an asshole elf who regularly breaks into the Shire to steal things

One day he steals the Silmarils; he doesn't kill Finwe though he just knocks him out

The rest of the First Age is mostly just increasingly convoluted plots by various Finweans to break into his fortress and steal back the pipes (and all the other stuff Morgoth has stolen)

The first of these attempts involves Feanor stealing one (1) boat from Mayor Olwe. No one dies though and he puts it back afterwards. It still results in a lot of petty gossip.

After one of the attempts Morgoth catches Maedhros and hangs him up in a really tall tree

He's stuck there for three weeks before Findekano finds him and gets him down with the help of a homemade hang-glider called "Thorondor"

One of the other hobbit mayors is Thingol, a dear friend (and possible ex boyfriend?) of Finwe

Most of the Ainur are elves here but the concept of hobbit Thingol marrying an eldritch goddess is too funny to pass up so Melian is still a Maia here

She and her descendants look pretty hobbit-ish but they have fairy wings and little antennae

It causes a huge scandal when their daughter, Luthien, runs off with a dwarf prince named Beren

Thingol even writes a very strongly worded letter telling her not to marry him, which is a very extreme measure by hobbit standards, but she doesn't listen

Eventually Beren decides to steal some hobbit stuff back from Morgoth to prove his worthiness

He ends up stealing back one of the pipes and giving it to Thingol

Thingol grudgingly accepts him and Bluthien settle into a nice, quiet life in the Shire

There's no Doriath kinslaying either there's just a long, very passive-aggressive series of letters between Thingol and Feanor until Finwe eventually steps in and Thingol returns the pipe

The Bad End Delusion

Opzin walked at a quick pace into the hospital.

Ozpin: Excuse me Ma'am. I am the Headmaster of Beacon Ozpin and I would like to check in on two my students here. A Jaune Arc and Nora Valkyrie.

Nurse: That way and look for room 320.

Ozpin quickly moved that way as he heard the nurse mutter those poor kids. As he found the room he knocked on the door then slowly opened it.

Ozpin: Hello? Mr.Arc, Ms.Valkyrie it's Ozpin do you mind if I come in and talk?

Nora: .....................

Jaune: ...You can come in.

As he enters the room he sees a heavily bandaged Jaune and Nora in the bright white hospital room. He's smells the dry blood and cleaners in the air.

Nora is just staring at the wall. What he can see of her face it seems she being crying for a long time and simply had no more tears. Curled up in a ball with her knees to her face.

Jaune's expression is one of anger, grief, and hopelessness. He is sitting up looking Ozpin in the eyes.

Jaune: Hello sir. I'm sure you have questions.

Ozpin: I do but those can wait for a bett-

Jaune: No. You need to know.

Ozpin: Alright tell me how a mission to check up on an old factory building in Vale went so wrong.

Jaune: Their was a Grimm like I never seen. One nome of us had ever even heard of. Even Weiss... Weiss. *deep breathe sounding like he's holding back a sob* Sorry.

Ozpin: Take your time Mr.Arc

Jaune: So we enter the building with me and Ruby deciding it be better with we stuck together. As we walked into the first couple rooms everything was fine but as we entered the factory line their was a mist. A red mist. That damn red mist. It was light at first and we didn't even notice at first. Everyone was getting kinda of droopy. We all thought it was because it was a long day.

Jaune: Then I heard something that sounded like my nephew crying. I looked around and as soon as I was about to ask the others if they could hear ot the lights went out.

Jaune: We all circled together to not let anything attack us. But it was dark and the mist made it hard to hear and think right.

Jaune: The monster quickly attacked knocking most of our weapons away while scattering our group. I think only Pyrrha and Yang still had theirs.

Jaune: I managed to hold on to Nora's hand to stick together. The mist just thickened and we tried to cover our mouths when we heard Ren scream in pain. We rushed in his direction but..

Jaune:...

Ozpin: Mr.Arc we can do this another time.

Jaune: .... He had no head and his legs had been torn off. We could have only been a few minutes away. How did it kill him so fast. He was one of the best fighter I ever knew.

Ozpin: ...

Jaune: We found are friends one by one by following their screams and angry shouts. Weiss was impaled in the chest by Pyrrha's spear. Yang arms were missing and with all the blood around her clearly bled out. Blake had a giant hold in her chest liek she was punched with imhuman force. Pyrrha... all we saw was her upper torso, head, and an arm.

Jaune: As we tried to process suddenly the gas was so thick it was hard to breathe then I saw all the bodies standing near us screaming if I was a real hero I should have done something with the voices of my family insulting me playing over.

Jaune: I couldn't tell what was real anymore. Then suddenly it attacked restlessly. Clawing,swinging, amd throwing us around like dolls. It seemed to change size constantly to avoid are hits. Nora's Aura broke first and I managed to hit it with a broken pipe before being throw into a wall.

Jaune: Last thong I remember was it's slow walk towards me spitting out gas while everyone expect Nora watched and laughed. They laughed and laughed and laughed until it felt like they were yelling in my head. Before it could finish me the wall exploded with team Cfvy quickly attacking amd driving ot away while they seemed to be wearing gas mask.

Jaune: I never saw Ruby.

Nora: I heard it say "With this Gemstone may Salem forgive me" while carrying Ruby away. She was still breathing as it ran.

Nora:.... Are they gone? Really gone?

Ozpin did not answer leaving Nora and Jaune to start crying again.

Jaune: I don't think I'm able to be a huntsman anymore.

Ozpin: I will call your family and let you rest for now.

Ozpin closing the door still hearing their cries.

(OK so that was a lot and I'm probably misspelling a lot of stuff but yeah. Their is more of this story but I can't write because it's just not where my skills lay. If you want to help that be cool but I'm not gonna bug you about it. So in this after Jaune and Nora heal they leave beacon and move out to live with Jaune's family one day getting married and having kids of their own one day.)

So thoughts? Criticism? Ideas? Want to hear it all? Want to know what happens next? Tell everything you thought of and how you would improve the Au idea.

First of all, great work! Really loved what you've put out there and I'd love to see more of this! Though that's gonna be hard since RWBY and JNPR are now dead, either literally or figuratively.

Second, I'm curious where, if anywhere this story goes. To be honest, it kinda feels like those Warhammer RWBY posts I made a while back, specifically the one where JNPR were killed by a Lichtor. I don't think you can really go further with so many characters dead like this, but hey, I've seen more impossible scenarios get resolved.

Last, the way I would improve this AU idea would be to give a follow-up to after this. I mean, sure, Team RWBY is dead with their leader abducted and Team JNPR have been broken beyond repair. I would follow this scenario up with Ruby being taken back to Salem (either she dies, gets corrupted, or escapes) and show us the interaction between Delusion and Salem. Either that or have Beacon respond to this attack by sending the best huntsmen and huntresses out to rescue Ruby, hopefully before it's too late. Third option is showing the impact all these deaths had on people throughout Remnant; parents and friends all reacting to the news that RWBY and JNPR are dead.

Until then...

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

[blackbloodteeth]

Something fell from the sky that night, shook the earth far from where it landed. He could feel it before he saw it, parted the curtain from the window to watch a flash light up above the storm, a star falling some distance from his quiet cabin. He felt it so closely in his chest that he just had to go out to find it, out into the billowing snow and freezing whirl of nature's untameable whims.

A hand kept his scarves pressed firmly against his laboured breaths while the other held tight to his lantern. Snow, deeply burying the mountainside, slowed his steps but he trekked onward to where he remembers the heavens parting. If anything, he always had a good sense of direction.

Eventually the dim glow of the flame's light cast itself on a disturbance in the snow, sunken around a small boulder that he threw himself onto. His gloves tore into the storm trying to claim it, pulling apart chunks of meteorite that crumbled away like feathers, and soon enough the lantern reflected from a dull gold blanketing the inside: Deep within, a woman. Bare. Nothing, save for the sleeping face of an angel.

This is how he knew the above was cruel, abandoning her here all by herself.

He pauses for not even a moment before hastily setting the lantern aside, forcing off the outermost coat from himself and swaddling her in it, carefully, yet hurriedly, picking her up and taking the lantern again as he stands back up, trudging homeward with this fallen star in tow. It isn't before long that he pushes them past the door and brings her to a freshly renewed fire, gifting her all the deserved rest he can offer from its warmth as the storm rages onwards.

Thankfully, she awakens just in time for supper to finish being prepared. There's a curiosity beneath the layer of frost set in her face – yet her eyes were greener than you can ever imagine here, like gemstones that lure in the wicked and greedy while rewarding those who never deemed fit to take them in the first place. She didn't speak for a long while, not that he particularly expected her to, but he told her that he went by Soul as he offered her a piping hot bowl of stew.

Like many before her, she hesitated until she got a taste of his rich, hearty recipe of tender meats and perfectly cooked vegetables to eagerly devour her bowlful and second helping. It'd been a long time since he'd smiled like this.

"…Soul." Of course she finally did speak, less a voice of a bird of paradise and more a scholar of thought. "You brought me in from the cold?"

"I did," he replies before taking another bite.

"…Why?"

His spoon stirs the broth around gently as he ponders this, for only just a moment. "Just felt like the right thing to do. No use freezin' out there for no one."

"What you say and what you mean doesn't sound the same."

Soul doesn't have to face her to hear the way it furrows her eyebrows at him, and well, maybe there was some truth ringing into that little smile of his. "After you wear a mask for so long, it gets hard to remember what your own face looks like."

For the rest of the storm he kept her company. Told her all the tales he knew, like how there once was a shepherd who wore the skin of a wolf to find where all the other wolves gathered, and when he joined their plot to wear the skin of a sheep that night, his own family ate him for supper none the wiser. By the dawn of sunrise when the storm finally broke, he'd dozed off more than a couple times haunted by these visions.

The chill in the air was present as it was refreshing. Soul loaned her some spare garments to keep her warm, fully ready to see her off at the greeting of sunrise over the shimmer of snow before she turned to face him again, that stony layer of curiosity returned with a small lantern's flame.

"You seem lonely."

Breath from his sigh plumes up from the restless corners of his mouth. "Have been my whole life. One day I just decided to make it a choice."

"If you could choose again, would you decide that now," she asks.

He looks out at the windless sparkling of sunrise already starting to reach its way to his quiet cabin, not yet blinding but still a sight to behold as not even his trail nor the storm had been left behind in the calm of morning after. Another plume of breath slips away from him when he gazes upon the shining green still watching him. "I won't choose to stop you if you decide to stay here."

Self-Care: Satanachia's Rose Ritual 🌹

I created Satanachia’s Rose Ritual to attract the best things in life through self-care, which includes self-worship for many of us. This ritual involves calling upon Satanachia, blessing/charging rose body oil, and anointing one’s body with it as an act of self-love, self-empowerment, and self-worship. Anointing the body with rose oil helps the practitioner connect with and embody the beauty of a rose. Feel free to perform Satanachia’s Rose Ritual for self-love, healing, confidence, beauty, and attracting the most compatible people and opportunities possible to yourself. Be sure to choose a gemstone pipe that corresponds with your intention, or burn the herbs another way if you don't want to use a pipe at all. I deliberately left the ending part more open-ended so you can either do this ritual on its own or adapt it into part of a larger ritual. 

Items Needed: 

Black Candle for Satanachia

Lighter

Rose oil, love oil, or any other (preferably floral) body oil you enjoy

2 pink tealight candles - 1 for Satanachia, 1 for yourself

Rose incense (or another floral incense if that isn’t available)

A gemstone pipe packed with herb

A sweet, floral, or pleasant drink you enjoy 

Chalice

*Optional: A cauldron or bowl filled halfway with rose petals

🌹Satanachia's Rose Ritual

1. Light the black candle and say the following invocation to Satanachia:

Hail Satanachia!

Demon of the Moon, love, beauty, creativity, and freedom!

Grand General of Hell!

Infernal patroness of the planets and cosmos!

You are the dark and demonic muse of magic, pleasure, liberation.

By your infernal powers of the _____ moon in _____

and this sacred planetary hour of ______,

please join me in this ritual so I fully connect with you in body, mind, and soul.

Satanachia, I hereby attune to your infernal spirit his moment and onward.

May your power and wisdom shine within me and through me.

Thank you, Satanachia, now and forevermore.

So mote it be!

Then focus on invoking Satanachia and feeling their presence within/around you.

2. Light a pink candle and dedicate it to Satanachia as a fire sacrifice:

Hail Satanachia!

I’ve lit this pink candle in your honor.

Please receive this burnt offering as a sacrifice of fire.

May this fire burn as brightly as your brilliance and passion do in my life, this world, and the universe at large.

Thank you, Satanachia, now and forevermore.

So mote it be!

3. Light the rose incense and dedicate it to Satanachia as an air sacrifice:

Hail Satanachia!

I’ve lit this rose incense in your honor.

Please receive this burnt offering as a sacrifice of air.

May this smoke grace my physical and mental space with your inspiration and enlightenment.

Thank you, Satanachia, now and forevermore.

So mote it be!

4. Hold the gemstone pipe filled with your herb of choice and say:

Hail Satanachia!

I’ve packed this precious herb into this ______ pipe in your honor.

Please receive this burnt offering as a sacrifice of earth.

May the magic of this herb bring me prosperity and healing.

Thank you, Satanachia, now and forevermore.

So mote it be!

5. Pour the drink into the chalice and hold it up as you dedicate it to Satanachia.

I’ve poured this libation of _____ in your honor.

Please receive this infernal offering as a sacrifice of fire.

May this libation inspirit me with your intuition and love as I drink and digest it.

Thank you, Satanachia, now and forevermore.

So mote it be!

6. Thank Satanachia and state your ritual purpose:

Hail Satanachia!

Thank you for being so present at this ritual and in my life.

I have summoned you here to call upon your infernal powers of love, beauty, and healing:

Please bless and empower me with self-love so I find pleasure and fulfillment in my being.

By your infernal powers of the _____ moon in _____ and this sacred planetary hour of ______, 

I honor and love myself as a goddess.

I recognize my power and embrace it to the fullest.

So mote it be!

7. Light the second pink candle and dedicate it to yourself by saying:

I light this pink candle in honor of the love I have for myself. 

As this pink candle burns, my self-love increases and I embrace the pleasure myself.

May my beauty and confidence shine like this flame and the infinite embers of Venus.

By your infernal powers of the ______ moon in ______,

please heal, cleanse, and empower me with self-love.

Thank you, Satanachia, now and forevermore.

So mote it be! 

8. Hold the rose oil in your hand as you say:

Hail Satanachia!

You possess the infinite love, beauty, and healing powers of all the roses in the world.

Please cleanse, bless, and empower this rose oil with your infernal spirit.

Please cleanse, bless, and empower me as I anoint myself with this rose oil.

By your infernal powers, I embody the beauty of a rose.

I adore and appreciate myself, and attract compatible people who adore and appreciate me.

I flourish and bloom in my own way, at my own pace.

I love myself for who I am in body, mind, heart, and spirit.

As I anoint myself with this rose oil, I fully embody the beauty of a rose.

So mote it be!

Anoint your whole body with the rose oil. Feel Satanachia’s powers of love and beauty healing you through the rose oil. Visualize yourself glowing with Satanachia’s energy as pink light.

9. When you feel charged up with Satanachia’s energy, thank Satanachia:

Thank you, Satanachia, for the love, healing, help, and empowerment you’ve given me. So mote it be!

10. From this point on, you may do other magical or ritual activities. If you want to end the ritual right then and there, just ground and center yourself, then bid Satanachia farewell:

Thank you, Satanachia, for all of the love, healing, help, and empowerment. This ritual is now finished, but its results are complete, high quality, and eternal. So mote it be!

11. Optional: After you’re completely done with the ritual, scatter the rose petals somewhere outdoors nearby or somewhere special to you as an infernal offering to Satanachia.

Again, feel free to combine this ritual with other magical activities or rituals such as Satanachia's Shower Spell, Satanchia's Full Moon Ritual, or Satanachia's Venus Empowerment Ritual.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you deserve to love yourself and find joy in being your authentic self. You also deserve to have people in your life who wholly appreciate you and support you. I hope this ritual helps you feel good and attract good things into your life. ❤️

[laseratingfist]

so I've been reading the flavor text in Belobog. again. as usual. I have some fun notes.... (all item descriptions are typed up directly from the in-game descriptions into a google doc so i can look at it whenever without waiting for the game to load.)

Endotherm Chitin (character ascension material, dropped by the stagnant shadow: shape of blaze in the Silvermane Guard Restricted Zone) - Strange chitin peeled off from an interdimensional creature. Although not piping hot anymore, it still radiates warmth. "It's too cold outside. But with this gemstone on you, you'll be able to travel far and wide, even to search for cities with humans left..."

I am extremely curious who that quote is from! Is it Sampo? Of course, this is my first thought because he's the most well-known scammer to us, the players. I don't actually think it's him, I think it is probably somebody else, also because I don't think Sampo would be the type to encourage exploration of the wilderness outside of Belobog. There does seem to be a lot of, or at least a few, people interested in exploration (Lynx, of course) but also, apparently, people who have read Tales of the Winterlands....? I think it's a reasonable response to growing up in a city like Belobog, though. Anyway, I don't think it would be a good idea to use the Chitin to stay warm in the Freeze, but it might come in handy. Maybe that's something that Sampo uses?

Horn of Snow (character ascension material dropped by the stagnant shadow: shape of rime in the Corridor of Fading Echoes) - The Silvermane Guards would host contests where the winner must take a body part from a monster and bring it back within a set time limit. This cold broken horn must have been a trophy of one such contest. "Sir Bova, this is no moose horn and certainly not fit for decoration above the Geomarrow furnace."

Searing Steel Blade (character ascension material dropped by the stagnant shadow: shape of scorch in the Great Mine) - [...] This broken blade must have been a trophy of one such contest. "I saw it with my own eyes. Captain Gepard smashed that thing's hot steel blade with one blow of his fist, then held it with his bare hands and plunged it into the belly of that cold fatty, warming its heart."

Some very funny tidbits about the Silvermanes. It feels very much like a boy's club, though I know it's not only men. They must get really bored, honestly, I get it. Not really sure what monster the quote on the second one is referring to, because Shape of Scorch is the chainsaw automaton, whereas Shape of Rime is the big round automaton? maybe the fight they're referring to had both corrupted by Fragmentum. curious.

[blackcattyler]

No, but Megumi crushing on reader, who just so happens to be Gojo's younger sister as well? The siblings are super close, it's like they share a braincell sometimes-- but poor Megumi can't figure out why he doesn't find Reader annoying too? And it also probably doesn't help that Reader is so oblivious and Gojo teases so much...

Anyways, take your time on this promt!! I love your writing, can't wait to see what you do with this!! <3

Gojo's sister reader x Megumi

Oblivious fluff

You had been eating lunch with Gojo when Megumi had walked up to you. You offered him some mochi that Gojo got you, and after looking surprised, he accepted it. Gojo started snickering and talked to Megumi while you ate. After some talk you heard your name, so you started listening. "Just ask her, I don't see why it's so hard." Gojo said. "Because she won't understand what I mean. I don't want any misunderstandings." You pipe up and ask "Who won't understand?" "Don't worry." After saying that, Megumi got up and walked away. You asked Gojo what happened and he just told you not to worry.

Megumi had asked you to go out to have dinner with him. You had accepted as it was fun to hangout with a friend. Megumi had picked a ramen place to eat, and you were happy because you loved ramen. Gojo told you to dress nicely for this so you wore a purple dress with a black belt with gemstones on the buckle. Megumi arrived and saw you. His face turned a shade of red and he looked away. "Is everything OK Megumi? Your face is red. Are you sick?" You asked, concerned. "I'm fine. Let's head inside." You followed him inside and sat down. You and Megumi ordered and sat in silence for awhile. "You look beautiful in that dress." He said out of the blue. "Thank you! Gojo said to dress up so I did." Megumi seemed a little irritated at the fact that Gojo told you to dress up. Your food arrived and you ate.

"Thank you for tonight." Megumi had walked you to your dorm room after you finished dinner. "No problem. I had fun." He looked like he wanted to say more but ddidn't. You thought about it and decided to kiss him on the cheek as a thank you for the night. He looked stunned by your action but then smiled. "Goodnight Megumi." "Goodnight."

I hope this is what you wanted. Sorry it took so long. I started writing it but then lost everything when I had to leave the app. It sucked

Where they like to shop-LOTR

Frodo- the bookstore obviously. He especially likes to support indie bookstores but if need be he will resort to Barnes and Noble. Always tells himself he will only get one book and walks out with ten (he always gets at least one for Sam) He likes artisan markets and boutiques and loves a vintage fashion store. He also can spend several hours in any yarn store.

Sam- the nursery! He goes through the entire store and every greenhouse very thoroughly. Usually comes out with a dozen new plants. Similarly enjoys the hardware store. Always has some landscaping project going on. Loves a good open air food market or little family run delis. Loves a good spice selection. Cannot go into a cookware store without buying something.

Merry- Merry of course loves the weed store. He also likes to shop for fancy wine. I get the sense that he would like shopping for nice suits too. He’s got a good sense of style. Loves to go to touristy shops and get the weirdest thing there. He does collect city mugs. He also collects the weird paintings at Goodwill which he will hang up in his parents house without telling them.

Pippin- Pippin is kind of an impulse buyer. Pretty much any store he enters he will buy something in. He spends way too much money at Target (“they have everything Merry!”). Is big on seasonal decorations and will always buy like the giant Halloween things that jump out at you and massive amounts of Christmas lights. Also has an absurd amount of ugly Christmas sweaters.

Gandalf- like Merry does spend quite a bit at the dispensary. Likes a good woodworking shop. Likes to buy unique carved pipes. And of course spends over a thousand dollars at the fireworks stand.

Aragorn- his main shopping destination is the feed store. Buys all kinds of shit for his horse. Is a loyal REI customer. He always buys the really good quality stuff for backcountry camping. He knows more than the employees there about what is a good brand to get and will happily assist other customers who assume he works there. He also likes to go shopping for Arwen and will usually get her some beautiful piece of jewelry or a really really nice handknit sweater.

Gimli- man loves the hardware store, loves his power tools. Likes to hang out in the lumber yard much to Legolas’s distress. Comes home with a bunch of rocks and woods that he builds stuff with. Also likes to jewelry shop and admire all the nice gemstones- he has an excellent eye and will often go with Aragorn when he is shopping for Arwen. He likes handcrafted stuff from wood, stone, and ceramic and likes to support local artists. Always on the lookout for a good bargain at the hardware store but willing to dish out quite a lot for something unique and handmade. Knows good craftsmanship when he sees it and likes to support other craftspeople.

Legolas- accompanies Gimli and Aragorn to the jewelry store and always manages to convince Gimli to get him something despite having plenty of his own money. Loves the plant store and samples all the edible and some non edible plants. He can legitimately spend a couple of hours at the wine store. Will go to fancy wine tasting events with Gimli. Fashionista man will happily spend an afternoon walking through the high fashion district where all the attendants know him. Similarly an expert Sephora shopper.

Boromir- like Gimli loves the hardware store they run into each other there and end up chatting for like an hour. Loves a good appliance store. Chats with the Best Buy people while picking out a new fridge. Is very particular about getting good quality shoes so he goes to like really nice shoe stores. Absolutely loves a furniture store-will always be on the lookout for a good sale there.

Bilbo- antique store expert! Wanders around until he sees something he likes. Buys a lot of nice antique furniture. An expert clothes shopper-he usually takes Frodo with him who doesn’t mind cause Bilbo pays. Bilbo will exclusively go to second hand bookshops and buy the super rare things behind the locked glass. Also likes to go look for nice rugs, blankets, and linens. Does love the cooking store and usually offers to pay for Sam there (Sam always declined when he worked for Bilbo but once he and Frodo got married he let Bilbo buy him stuff).

Eowyn- shopping for weapons. This woman has a massive sword collection its honestly kind of scary. Also likes the hardware store and the home improvement. Generally she’s not really a big shopper - she really only buys something unless she needs it or as a present for someone else.

Faramir- Faramir loves the pet store. Totally an animal person and has like four cats and two dogs and like a couple guinea pigs and maybe a turtle. Buys so many pet accessories. Eowyn thinks it is cute but ridiculous. She has to remind Faramir that no they do not have room for any more animals-yes not even that gecko- every time they go into the pet store.

Arwen- loves going high end fashion shopping with Legolas. Is really into nice fabrics and weaves so likes to shop for things like fancy tablecloths. Loves a good shoe store. Also a big fan of hat shops. Gondor is a lot brighter than Rivendell so she wears lots of hats to keep her eyes shaded. Starts quite a few fashion trends this way. She also likes to shop for art-especially paintings and statues. She often attends art gallery events and almost always buys something that will be priceless in a few years-she has the money she’s a queen!

Ivory Girl AU : A Hero Is Born - Chapter 2

‐--------------------------------○●○--------------------------

The serpent woman stood proudly in front of the large, glowing vat filled with sickly green essence that swam around like an unruly storm. She smirked at the sight, caressing the cold glass of the vat with her sharp, long nails.

"It feels like l've waited an eternity for this moment.." The serpent remarked in anticipation, resting her palm against the glass. She gazed over to the punk woman, with her mighty iron gloves that were surprisingly meticulous in their work.

"Is everything in order?" The serpent woman questioned. She slid her slender hands behind her back as she slithered over to the punk, standing obseverly by her. She was youthful in comparison to the serpent, and Jade scales blossomed on her rusted bronze complexion.

"Just making the final adjustments, Mother." The punk replied, creating meticulous adjustments with an experienced eye. She was careful, calculated with her alterations of the machine as if everything depended on not single edge of an error.

Bai he hung from the edge of the pipes, peering down at the two creatures. Bai he knew better than to watch. Her curiosity usually killed the cat, but her satisfaction always brought it back. So, she carelessly watched, engrossed in the situation.

"Finally." The serpent began, slithering into the middle of the cavern. "After all this time, we have the power to free my love!" She announced, green eyes appeared from the dark walls of the cavern like stars in the midnight sky.

Bai he scoured the walls of the carven, watching in horror as eyes slithered from the shadowed walls—releaving their slender bodies covered in jade scales, long fangs protruded from the salivating mouth of the snakes. Their long, slimy bodies slinked down the carven's walls towards the awaiting serpent woman.

Bai he sat frozen upon the pipes, afraid to catch any of the hunting eyes of the snakes. She swallowed the bile that was building in her throat, as something, a sort of call, stubbornly compleded her to continue to watch—Ignoring the nerves that wavered in her stomach "I hate snakes...." She quietly whined to herself.

"We now hold the means to bend Lady Ivory's Key to our will!" The serpent woman declared, being surrounded by the tangles of snakes who hissed in a sort of chant, as if they were cheering. The serpent smiled at the excited hisses, cooing at the snakes as if they were pets.

"Mother." The punk woman called out, grabbing the attention of the serpent woman who looked back at her. "The Cluster is finished." She announced, pressing a button. The machine shuddered, straining from the newfound power running through its wires. The storm of sickly green essence turned into a typoon contained by the vat.

The serpent woman chuckled, basking in the sickly green glow as she approached the vat. Tapping her knuckles against the glass that slowly rose in heat. "Now, little Key, your power is ours." The serpent mocked, watching in assumement as a key distressingly rattled in the green essence.

Bai he gasped softly, examining the key with its unmistakable head formed into the shape of a skull made from the Ivory of bone. "Lady Ivory's Key.." Bai he muttered, the turquoise gemstones embedded in place of eyes on the skull seemed to search for her gaze.

Once, Bai he met the key's gaze a sharp pain blanketed her head in a throbbing ache. A contorted voice echoed through her ears, crying out for her help.

"Bai He."

"Help me."

"HELP."

The voice shrieked.

Bai he grunted, hissing in pain. She pressed her hand against her ear as the throbbing pain subsided just as fast as it came. "What. The. Fuck." Bai he muttered under her breath, resting her arm on the pipe for some stability.

"Now." The punk woman began, grasping Bai he's attention back to the current situation at hand. The punk stood before 'The Cluster' admiring her masterpiece. "I, Ao Xiaojiao, will finally free my Father from his prison!" She announced, slamming her iron fist onto the activation panel.

'The Cluster' shifted, pointing its tip at a designated location on the ground. A crackling energy leaked from the head of her machine, spitting into a powerful flare of energy that submerged the cavern in a cluttered glow of green and blue as the Key fought against the scalding essence.

The ground began to shake. The Iron supports strained, as they held the rumbling walls of the cavern. Bai he braced herself, holding onto the pipes as they shook, ducking her head beneath another pipe to avoid the falling rocks and dust that crumbled from the walls.

The machine suddenly stopped, ceasing the rumbling. A dust cloud was left in its wake, hiding the damage it caused. Xiaojiao edged forward, brushing away the dust from her view. She looked down at the crater caused by the machine, spider-webs of cracks led into the crater.

"Huh, that was anticlimactic.." Bai he remarked, Her gaze lingering to the key that aimlessly drifted in the essence. Bai he felt a heavy feeling building in her gut, sympathy, for the key. She knew what she should do, Queenie had etched into her head, 'Think with your head, not your heart'. But, clearly, it wasn't deep enough.

She had to save that key.

"Uh, Mother." Xiaojiao called out, looking over to the serpent woman. "Are you sure this is the right place?" She questioned, walking over to the serpent.

"No, maybe it was another city built upon my husband's prison!" The serpent woman retorted, her tail rattling in annoyance. The tangles of snakes seemed to assert their own annoyance with their hisses.

The crackling of a raging fire grabbed the creature's attention back to the crater. A green fire was burning beneath the crust, pooling out of the weakened cracks. A geyser of green flames brust out of the crater, filling the cavern into an unbearable heat.

A roar erupted through the cavern as a massive beast brusted through the flames. Its forest green scales reflected the green shimmer onto its black mane, which slivered with an age that flowed down its long body. The Dragon growled out a sigh of relief, steam exiting its nostrils.

A green glow sparked in the Dragon's eyes as a mist surrounded the dragon, its silhouette shifting into the shape of a man. The man the Dragon masqueraded had russet skin blemished with green scales that reminded of his monsterous form. Long black hair covered his face, as well as his scruffy beard. His clothes were tattered, torn by time.

"Flesh, Bone.." The Dragon listed, clenching his hands into a fists as his face gleamed with victory. "I have returned to the realm of living!" He cheered.

"Father!" Xiaojiao called out, sprinting over to her father and tackling into his open arms. She wrapped herself around her father, like a baby sloth with its mother.

The Dragon laughed, hugging the clinging punk wrapped around him as he looked to the serpent who slithered towards him. "Princess Yushe, how time has been kind to you." The Dragon remarked, with a grin on his face.

"Dragon King of the West, how I've missed you." Princess Yushe repiled, the snakes seemed to cheer for their reunion.

"How did you free me?" The Dragon King asked, looking towards the large machine built around his prison.

"It was I, Father!" Xiaojiao announced, hopping out of her father's arms. She quickly approached the vat, grabbing the key from the contents of the vat. She held it in her hand as she returned to her father.

"After, four hundred and ninety-seven years..." Xiaojiao began, displaying the key above her head in victory. "We finally found Lady Ivory's Key!" She announced.

Xiaojiao continued to babble on to her mother and father. But, Bai he attention stayed on the key in the punk's hand. She stepped forward on the pipes, crouching down in a makeshift running stance. Bai he knew this was a bad idea, but she had to save that key.

Bai he took a deep breath, focusing all her determination on getting that key. With one final breath, she leapt from the pipes, charging at the punk. A battle cry escaped her lips as Xiaojiao cried out in surprise as she tackled to the ground, bashing heads with each other.

Bai he groaned in pain but managed to grab the key scrambling to her feet as Xiaojiao yelled out to her. "You damn witch!" Xiaojiao growled, jumping to her feet as she rubbed her forehead. She whistled, summoning a motorcycle that looked like a dragon with bright green eyes.

Xiaojiao swung herself onto the bike, revving up the engine as she chased after Bai he. Bai he held the key in her grip as she sprinted away. She patted in fear as she heard an engine revving up, "Of course she has a vehicle, why wouldn't she!?" Bai he shrieked.

"That doesn't belong to you!" Xiaojiao yelled out as she drove towards Bai he. Bai he screamed, putting her arms up in defence. The key glowed as a piller of ice appeared beneath Bai he's feet, shooting her up into the air. Xiaojiao gasped as she rammed into the soild ice.

"WHAT!?" Xiaojiao yelled out in surprise as the pillar stood before her. Bai he opened her eyes to find herself in the air. She looked down to see the shocked expressions of the creature's as them looked up at her.

"What..?" Bai he muttered, looking at the key in her hands. "Thank you.." The key replied, glowing once more. Bai he looked behind her to find a bridge of ice, leading her back to her scooter. Without questioning anymore, she ran over to her scooter and speed off.

"Oh no, you're not getting away from me!" Xiaojiao yelled, revving up her bike. Her sped up the pillar of ice, leaving a literal trail of green flames in her wake.

Princess Yushe walked beside The Dragon King as they investigated the pillar of ice. "She activated Lady Ivory's powers.." The Dragon King explained, pressing his palm against the mythical ice, flowing with power.

"Let Jiao-Jiao chase her down." Princess Yushe suggested, linking arms with him. "She needs the chase, and you need to clean up." She explained.

The Dragon King laughed, as followed his wife. "Perhaps I do." He agreed, watching as his wife's snakes followed after his daughter.
