Sunfury Brand, 2
((Part two of the kinda kinky Sunfury Brand story. NSFW, age 18+ and a 15 min. read.))
Tumblr media
Staring over her shoulder at her own butt in the mirror for so long hurt her neck, so Trixany faced the empty room again.
Well, the tattoo had been somewhat hastily done back then. Other Sunfury soldiers had been waiting in line. And they didn’t exactly have the most exquisite enchantments the sin’dorei could offer, camped as they were in the war-torn wastelands of Outland. When Trixany got her Sunfury brand, the wonderfully inglorious phoenix ass tatt, Tempest Keep hadn’t happened yet.
Yeah, she could get her booty done again. The menacing, guilt-ridden light gold phoenix could become an elegant artwork.
Or she could leave that painful past with Kael’thas behind once and for all. She was finally in a place in her life where she wasn’t terrified of considering it. A lot had healed. A lot for her had stabilized. This was her chance to escape.
The beautiful Blood Elf woman sat there, squeezed a fistful of short tangerine hair. Trixany started to cry.
“This is stupid, it’s not supposed to be this hard.” She moved her leg, opened one of the dresser drawers. She took a hand mirror out, slammed it shut again. “Enough is enough. It’s been years and it’s bothering you. One last look, then you have to decide.”
She angled the hand mirror, bit her lip. For all she knew, this might be her last time really seeing it. Once the decision got made, she was the sort of person to settle it fast and not linger.
“Maybe it should go. It doesn’t belong there—”
But it was also SO pretty.
“Maybe… if I add some filigree around it? Maybe some tatted red gemstones?”
That’ll cover like half your butt, though. Are you kidding me?
There was one person who would have a definitive opinion about it, and he was also the perfect person to ask. Only, she wasn’t supposed to be talking to Sunthraze. Technically. Trixany narrowed her eyes, just thinking about it. Her red-headed brat, ex-fiancee was one of the most obnoxious Blood Elf men on Azeroth.
And he was the highly intelligent sort who also knew better than to talk to her, because she didn’t want to talk to him. He was capable of not answering her, ignoring her, moving on with someone functional and really beautiful, younger than her even. Well not just the new girlfriends, Sunthraze was younger than her by about fifteen years and he knew she hated being reminded of it. So he had this habit of moving in with other girls who were half even his age, had more money and a better reputation than her, and who spoke every pretty Elf language on Azeroth until Trixany finally had enough of it and sabotaged them.
Well, he always let her do it, though. Maybe Sunthraze just liked to run the full length of his leash?
Actually, it was getting late, wasn’t it? He might be good for a few things.
Knowing full well how wrong she was, she flashed her hand over the scrying orb on the other end of the dresser. “So hey, what do you think of this? Should I keep it?”
The scrying orb had taken the handmirror’s spot, nestled up close to her thigh.
Sunthraze was home at his desk, focused on paperwork. Dutiful Blood Knight that he was.
“Look, Trix. Just because I haven’t silenced your sequence yet, that doesn’t mean I’m your…”
She shrugged as she looked down at his visage in the glass globe and he looked up at the full length of her.
“Okay.” she clapped hands together and shrugged, almost gesturing like a Goblin on the mean streets of Kezan, “Cool! We can block each other right now if you want.”
“Hold on.”
The way he looked right then rattled her right back. The smirking redhead was in a three-piece suit it looked like, with one of those fine frilly shirts (should have made him look stupid, but instead he came off ruthlessly clever for having pulled it off). Nice dark cloth tie knotted at the opening of the shirt and vest. Fine cufflinks at the edge of his sleeves. His hair was dyed a deeper red these days, and his whole ensemble looked as if he was cast in this delicious ruby light. Crisp white shirt, nestled in burgundy, wine, blood red. Gold accents. He’d selected each piece very carefully. And so well. She wanted to see more of his hair but then that would have made her seem very obvious about the effect he was having.
Tumblr media
Actually, where was he headed? Sunthraze had to be going out. Sunthraze had even done the whole ‘gold rings over the fingers of my gray gloves thing’ that was starting to get fashionable. Mainly among the upper crust at Court.
“You don’t have a date—”
Him, just as quick, “You don’t know that.”
“You’re going to the Sunspire?”
“Meeting with Lor’themar himself. Liadrin needed a competent, seasoned Nexite to go brief him on what we’ve been doing in our sect.”
“And so she sends you.”
“Yes. Me and not the lady in only panties and her ass on a shelf in my scrying orb.”
“It’s my dresser, actually.”
He put the pen down and sat back in his chair. It creaked. His voice dipped, willing to reveal how the vision satisfied him, “How may I help you this evening, Miss Cuomo?”
“I’m thinking of getting rid of this thing—”
“And could you move a little too, so that your amazing tits are also in the shot? I mean, I’m only guessing about you having one, single powder-blue thing on.”
“You ass.”
“Yours went first.”
“Hey, nicely done—when you know I’m worried about this thing on my butt!”
“What is all this really about, anyway? I mean, aside from the obvious.” Sunthraze looked at her, looked her dead in the eye for a time. “It’s just a tattoo at the end of the day.”
“It’s part of my past, it’s… what if I do get rid of it? I kind of keep worrying... Well, will I still be me?”
“You’re a mish-mash of a Goblin pin-up girl that isn’t a Goblin and a Blood Knight that plays by her own rules, even now that the Silver Hand is involved, so none of us know what you are if even you do.”
“Not helping, Sunthraze.”
“Oh, I’d definitely like to help myself.” He was only mortal, he couldn’t stay on track forever.
“I’m starting to see that this Sunfury tattoo is also my rock, my… it’s this thread that runs right through my past to today. It’s the decision I made to do something good and right for myself, and my people. I thought I was doing that this whole time, but what if I haven’t really done what I was meant to do, fulfilled myself—”
“So this is some kind of mid-life… uh, well, it’s a Human expression and we Elves live so long. But you can’t be having a crisis over an old tattoo, Trixany?”
“And then I feel like I’m the only one who still has theirs. Like… like I’m phasing out and everyone else is moving on. Whenever I have to explain it, I feel sort of panicked. Each time, I have to explain about how I was a Sunfury. About how I don’t think it was a bad decision, and see all these new eyes, these young faces that don’t understand how it was.”
“You feel old?”
“It’s more than that!”
No, he’d just taken a shot at her. Sunthraze could more than keep up with conversation, he was probably ahead of it and knew what advice he would give. But why make it easy for her? To just show up in his life and demand attention, get a shoulder to cry on, just like that? Without addressing anything that ever happened between them.
“Yeah, I can see the gray hairs from over here, I guess.” Sunthraze arched a deep red brow, played with one thick gold ring over his gloved fingers.
Trixany was frantic and slow to notice what he’d done until that remark. But when Trixany did, she gave Sunthraze the middle finger.
“Dang, girl. You’d better get those nails painted, too…”

Aika online armor enchanting
Tumblr media
#Aika online armor enchanting free#
The whole protection aspect in this game if you want to keep it realistic, comes from spells and enchantments that boost your protection rating, not just heavy armor. What about mages who only wear cloth? That cloth does nothing for us from a protection stand point, so if I went without a tunic and exposed my chest, a sword would cut me just as deep as if I were wearing that cloth tunic. The whole idea of having to be armored visibily if you are wearing armor is nonsense in this game when several costumes allow for it and allow you to wear cloth only as a heavy armor wearing tank. What difference does it make if I choose to hide my chest piece and the rest of my body is armored, when there are people running around almost completely nude in Nordic bathing towels and argonian tribal wear that exposes nearly everything? Was about to agree with you until I read you're against hiding armor pieces like the chest to show off tattoos. They should have made that a gold sink at the exact same costs as coloring your outfits back then, or refit this now. which I always thought was a mistake from the start, the "free to dye" thing. I stick to costumes, which, as a subscriber, I can dye for free.

One more thing I woudl love to see is allowing guilds to make " Uniform" outfits, perhaps even multiple (for each armor weight - Knight, Rogue and Mage) and give characters that joinb guilds -one- free "guild" outfit slot they can assing their chosen guild uniform of their favored guild to. jewelry visuals for example, like, replacing the "hands" slot (gloves, gauntlets, etc.) with some stylish magic bracelets ("bracers of protection AC0", anyone? ) and the "feet" slot with anklets? Giving "crown" or "circlet" visuals for the head slot? Give "crushing weight of many, many gold chain necklaces" for the chest slot so you can make redguard characters who'd pity the fool that stands against them? Play as naked nord, or barefoot breton?Īnd yet other options could be added. Buy "invisible armor" options per slot for the outfit system. Still, it -could- be another crown unlock. (and I dislike the option to make heavy armor look like light robes in the outfit system as well as the option to make axes look like swords, for the same reason, but. I dislike those options, because I happen to think that if you wear armor, you should -look- armored. People have also kept asking for "hide shoulders because they look iffy on my character" options, or even "hide chestpiece to show off my awesome tatoos". Which I'd be okay with - use the costume as is, or pay extra to use it for customizing your outfits. though I suppose they would sell "outfit unlocks" seperately in the crown store. Maybe even add costume pieces, so we can for example take this glove bit from that costume and that boot look from this costume, and use them in our outfits. research that civilian clothing or monster piece, have a 20% chance to learn the looks for the outfit system, so you likely will need to do several of them until you do get lucky and so on. Definitely outfit unlocks for monster helments, and not just for a limited time (though that's a good start) - they could make it with a research -chance- like. the option to "research" all the "civilian clothing" (those things you sometimes find while burglaring) for the outfit system. Of course, I would also want them to give us way more outfit options! I'd go wild with outfits, make several for each character. Personally, if they ever made the current outfit slots account wide, and then sold individual ones for, say, 250 crowns per slot. 400 crowns (comparing cash shop currency ain't easy) I bought one thinking it was account-wide, then felt somewhat cheated when I realized it wasn't - in other games that use a similar system, I got two outfit slots for the equivalent of ca.

Fairy Tail Chapter 518 Review
Here’s my Review of FT: Master Enchantment
Tumblr media
Our cover page is another glamor shot but I actually like it because of how Happy’s face is drawn here.
The Chapter opens up with Irene And Erza facing off and Erza declares she’ll win this soon.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So Irene begins blasting at Erza bringing up how Erza was useless after all that time she had spent protecting her. Erza says how she understands why Irene is angry, and she understands that misery.
Tumblr media
Irene, shut up. I know that what Hiro is trying to go for is someone who acts like a child and as we’ll see you are almost throwing a tantrum over this.
Tumblr media
And here Erza pretty much explains why you don’t have a pot to piss in, Irene.
Tumblr media
Yeah once again it’s obvious what Hiro’s trying to do, people who suffered similar situations but each one turned out different.
Irene gets pissed over listening to Erza wax on about friendship for a little bit (be glad that you didn’t have to put up with it for 10 years like most readers had to) and decides to enter dragon form.
Tumblr media
Yeah that’s still a pretty bitching dragon mode.
Tumblr media
Erza were you even paying attention to Irene’s story? She had expressly stated she became a dragon, did you just get bored and leave half way through the story.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh my god. Erza just took damage from a dragon and it was treated as such. No, being able to stand after it, no brushing it off with only a pained look. It’s treated as it should be.
Tumblr media
This is a really intriguing concept. Dragon slaying magic that is solely supportive. We’ve seen there be support based spells dragon slayers have like Wendy and her enchantments as well as Sting and Rogue with their White and Shadow drive. Also we’ve seen with Motherglare that dragon slaying magic can manifest in a way that isn’t an element. So this Sage/Wisdom dragon slaying magic is actually kinda amazing.
Tumblr media
Look Irene I get it that using this form you can access pretty much the world and beyond and good on you for doing that but there is a simpler way… STEP ON ERZA REPEATEDLY! If one swing can break most here bones then why not just step on her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Okay this is just hilarious to me, Jellal’s most powerful heavenly body spell is being outdone by someone who doesn’t even specialize in heavenly body magic. Also Irene aren’t you being to brash, nuking everyone in the area including the body of the girl who you still want for your “happiness”. Seems the only one in your way is yourself.
Tumblr media
So of course with her friends lives at stake Erza summons up her remaing power and launches herself into the air. Also that hand is supposed to be the one burned by END natsu, I know wendy healed up Erza’s hands but why do they still look that way?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I actually like this speech. It is a friendship speech but what works for me unlike the previous one Erza did is this speech feels like only Erza’s character can say it. The idea of being a “queen”, someone who’s watched over the guild for a good chunk of her life and is a symbol of FT’s strength, This isn’t some interchangeable speech that wouldn’t make a difference if Lucy, Natsu, or Wendy said it. This is a Erza only speech.
Tumblr media
Last panel is Erza glowing with magic and heading toward the meteorite. Oh what fresh new power is she going to pull out of her ass.
Y’know, a lot of people have a problem with the fact Erza is taking on a meteor but I don’t. Because it’s not uncommon in Manga for this to happen in fact there was a time when it almost became a joke in series about “oh a meteor is coming down”. Also in the FT universe we’ve seen characters handle meteors. From the Oracion Seis who took on Jellal’s Sema and Mard Geer who took on the Celestial Spirit King’s Meteor Blade (which admittedly wasn’t a full meteor but most likely had the same force and power behind it as one.). Also in other series we’ve seen characters take on meteors: Kenpachi from Bleach, Law and Doflamingo in One Piece, Onoki in Naruto. And Erza has proven to be strong so using all that knowledge why can’t I accept this. Is it because she is Erza? That I just don’t want to see her win? Well looking over it all, I think I know why I can’t accept it. She’s using her samurai pants. I made a whole discussion on Erza’s powers and what worked and what didn't, and in it I expressed how strong Erza can be with her magic. And thinking about that and what all those other characters did that Erza isn’t doing here, they actually use their superhuman powers. In Samurai Pants mode, Erza has no superhuman abilities only her normal physical strength, what makes Erza is her magic “the knight”, what made her special as Happy said. To stop those meteors: Law and Doflamingo had to use their devil fruits to destroy meteors, Kenpachi needed to use his sword’s shikai to destroy a meteor, Onoki had to use his earth style, even Mard Geer needed to match meteor blade with his own curse power, but Erza… She’s not using any armor, all she is is a woman armed with a normal katanna. You know if she had just changed into the Nakagami armor which can cut through space, or if you wanted to be symbolic why not armadura fairy the armor we’ve seen that has the power to destroy an island. Nope just these pants. That’s why I can’t accept this.
Post Chapter follow up: This made me feel hollow. I didn’t get any joy out of it and while I think I should be mad, I’m just not angry at it. And that’s what I expect fro an Erza fight. When the fight started  my bar was low to the ground because as it’s been proven Erza in fighting is always the same, impossible odds that make what natsu’s facing look like peanuts and is powered by the fact she’s erza and can’t lose. The last 2 chapters got a reaction out of me because they were genuinely stupid and bad even for Erza fight standards but this chapter was what I expected so I’m not disappointed, but I’m not happy.
But what do I have to say on the positives well for one I liked that speech Erza had at the end of the chapter, I felt it was a fitting speech for her character. Also on the plus side, I’m glad that we are introduced to new Dragon magic concepts like this Sage dragon powers.
As for the negatives, well as I stated above I don’t feel anything for this but I guess some more to add is this meteorite was just included to make more drama so Erza can be the big damn hero.
But what irks me the most is Erza is glowing in light, which will be how she beats this meteor. I highly doubt she’ll turn into a dragon or else that would be utter crap and eliminate the whole “human child” thing Irene did, but I wouldn’t put it past Hiro. Another posiblity is maybe Wendy enchanted Erza, it seems farfetched but it might work as an explanation, but if it is then it’ll have still failed due to not contributing enough panels to show wendy regaining power. And finally at the end she is saying “master lend me your strength” so that makes me think of 2 possibilities, one she gain Makarov’s power from beyond the grave which seems dubious or two Mavis is giving Erza a fairy magic.
I guess we’ll all have to wait and see.
Final Verdict: 3/10
It is everything I expect from erza
Shoehorned in conflict
interesting ideas for magic
Overall feeling of forgettability
