McSiren Headcanons:

Just some headcanons for Ronald McDonald and The Starbucks Siren.

-The Siren's name is "Astraea Melusine Kyllini".

-Astraea had always enjoyed things like the circus and the carnival. Why else would Siren's Island get its style from?:

-Ronald's a year older than The Siren. While Ronald's birthdy is April 15th, 1945, Astraea's birthday is March 30th, 1946.

-In 1967, Ronald and his friends encountered Astraea when their boat crash landed on Siren's Island. While Ronald and the gang were able to return home, Astraea decided to stay on the island.

-In 1970, Astraea moved to McDonaldland to be with Ronald after the two met again (and fell in love) that spring.

-In 1981 (just 10 years after the introduction of McDonaldland and Starbucks), Ronald and Astraea married.

-Ronald's father is the original (Willard Scott) Ronald McDonald while his mother, Petronelle Folie, ws a pierrette for Coca Cola.

-Meanwhile, Astraea's parents were Mercury Kyllini (Of the Il Giornale Cafe) and the original siren from the 70's named "Melusine". Melusine, meanwhile was a descendant of the original/legendary Melusine and sister to the siren, Allura of "Journey To Atlantis".

-When Melusine had passed away, Astraea took her mother's place as the Starbucks mascot and the queen of Siren's Island in 1987. As a result, Astraea and Ronald's marriage had to be long-distant as the latter had his responsiblities in McDonaldland.

-With Ronald's dog, Sundae, Astraea owns a cocker-spaniel named "Coco".

-In 2014, Ronald and Astraea would finally welcome their first (and only child); a daughter named, "Cherry".

Weekly Roundup: Prompts

Tsukihime:

kohaku and shiki feeding/stuffing, can be as fluffy or dark as op would like

Fate/Stay Night

Rin and Luvia are brainwashed into thinking they are identical Twin sisters.

FGO:

The Boys are having a bbq and kintoki is making the extra effort to make mandricardo feel included and comfortable. What kintoki doesn't realise is that he's getting a little too touchy-feely with mandy, who now has to juggle his social anxiety with his growing desire to fuck this gorgeous hunk of a himbo

After some time, Kriemhild has accepted that her adopted son Schmidt has started dating and invites them over for family dinner. What she didn't expect is for him to show up with two people, both of whom seem to be bad influences on her son (Sieg×AstolfoxJeanne trouphle but honestly it can be anyone)

Smut, Oh no! Asclepius is sick! And the only cure is....nurse Nightingale pegging him into the nearest hospital mattress? Who wrote this prescription!

I hear a lot of "Barghest and Gawain" and more than some "Lancelot and Melusine", but I rarely ever hear about Tristan and Baoban Sith interacting. Show us Tristan and Baoban Sith hanging out! (I imagine Tristan would be like a big brother to Baoban Sith but I leave it to the prompt filler to elaborate on their relationship)

Post-canon. Mash finds phh Morgan still hidden within Britain. How does it go?

Au where Tonelico's plan did succeed and Uther became a righteous king who guided humans and fairies into a better future. Specifically, au where Mash has to deal with the fact that this happy ending means that her own world will never come to be, all the people she's ever loved will never be born, her own world is gone, and it's all by her own hand.

Two characters of your choice gets bodyswapped. Guda, who is completely face blind, takes an embarassing amount of time to realize it.

The Mori siblings should be allowed to eat a guy

Qin Shi Huang being both disgusted by and pining after Trimnau, due to her being made of mercury.

Melusine and the other dragon servant fight for who get to put guda in their treasure horde with the outcome be them all moving in with guda.

Ritsuka gets to live a normal human life after saving humanity and totally rocks it, they get some therapy, get to be happy with someone they love, all that good jazz

Saver/Ruler!Fujimaru Ritsuka see Berserker!Fujimaru Ritsuka and envy their berserker self

Fujimaru couple deal with their own kid that they can't longer recognized. Post ending. (or Ritsuka do their best to prove that they could back to their normal life and their damn repress trauma)

Smut, Tonelico the savior, girl who's fucked around quite a lot in her life, is perfectly prepared to have sex with Mash. What she is not prepared for is that Mash genuinely cares for Tonelico's pleasure & comfort and love is dripping out of her every words even to her muddled fairy eyes. Cue Tonelico benig taken aback and overwhelmed by something she hasn't felt directed at her in centuries. Ideally this would be super kinky bdsm sex because I think the contrast of "this girl is tying me up and whipping me while also being super in love with me" would be interesting but if vanilla's your game go the fuck for it man.

Izou, rebuffed yet again by Ryouma and mostly Oryou, goes out drinking. In the morning he finds himself snuggled up with Hijikata and Tatsuki. Very confused.

I know the Anastasia we have in Chaldea is different than the one in LB1. But I still think it'd be nice for her to visit Kadoc pre-awakening and talk to him for a lil

Crossovers

Sakura Matou, a girl who, let's say "had a bad experience with bugs", meets Oberon Vortigern, a man who 1. uses bugs a lot, and 2. seems rather protective of heavily traumatized girls. How does that pan out? (I'm leaving this as open-ended as possible so the prompt filler can go wild)

Lyra and Will’s Chemical Wedding pt 4 - Mary Malone as Mercurius

Part 3 is here:

https://argentvive.tumblr.com/post/639797141245689856/lyra-and-wills-chemical-wedding-part-3

In the text of HDM we learn that Lyra is “Eve” and that Mary Malone must play the role of the Serpent.  We are clearly meant to think of the story in the Bible,  Genesis, Chapters 2-3.   Adam and Eve are forbidden to eat the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden.  The Serpent tempts Eve to do so; she takes a bite of a fruit--usually depicted as an apple-- from the Tree and shares it with Adam.  They are both expelled from the Garden of Eden for their disobedience.  

Most readers will assume that HDM is referencing the Genesis story.  However, I think Pullman is actually drawing from the alchemy version of the story.  As I wrote in Part 1 of this post:  

In alchemy Eve and Adam are the two natures of the prima materia–put them back together and you get the philosopher’s stone. So instead of Eve and Adam sharing an apple being a bad thing, leading to the Fall, Will and Lyra sharing round red fruit–and joining in the final, elevated, permanent Chemical Wedding–saves humanity and the multiverse. 

In alchemy, Mercurius brings the Male Principle (Sol) and the Female Principle (Luna) together, as in this illustration from Clavis artis (c. 1700):

You can tell that the serpent woman in the middle is Mercurius by the Mercury symbol over her head.  The man is King Sol (sun symbol over his head) and the woman is Queen Luna (moon symbol over her head).

A much earlier alchemy illustration depicts Eve, Adam, and the Serpent woman (Mercurius).  She is “killing” Adam so he can be resurrected in purer form. 

Buch der heiligen Dreifaltigkeit [Book of the Holy Trinity], c. 1410.  

An even freakier Serpent woman appears in Aurora consurgens (15th century).  She beheads both the Red man and the White woman, to create the Philosopher’s Stone--symbolized by the gold and silver flowers in the flask.  

Mary Malone is a benign Mercurius in TAS;  She simply brings Lyra and Will together: She tells the story of her own sexual awakening, in the “Marzipan” chapter, inspiring  Lyra to offer the “red fruits” to Will, which produces their Chemical Wedding.

Mary is also the first to witness their subsequent transformation.  (Note that “she knew what she would see”).

She nearly put the spyglass to her eye, but held back, and returned it to her pocket. There was no need for the glass; she knew what she would see; they would seem to be made of living gold. They would seem the true image of what human beings always could be, once they had come into their inheritance. (p. 470)

Lyra and Will are permanently joined.  This is why I believe that Will will reappear and reconnect with Lyra in some way in the final book.  

Curiously, there is an echo of Mercurius as Serpent woman in the French legend of Melusine.  This is not an alchemy story, as best I can tell.  Melusine transforms into a serpent woman once a week, but when she marries she tells her husband to leave her alone on Saturday nights.  Of course, curiosity gets the better of him, and he peeks.  Sadly, that ends their marriage and she flies away.

Perhaps coincidentally, Melusine’s husband is from the Lusignan family.  Olivier Bonneville’s full name in TBOD is Olivier de Lusignan Bonneville. Credit @ssmhhh  for noticing this and pointing it out to me.

BLACK

Intense concentration of all colours (or lack of them all), it absorbs light. Unlike other

colours, black reflects very little, if any, light back to the viewer. This can give

the false impression that black is the absence of colour. It is actually the absence

of colour reflection. Think of this colour as a black hole in space. It absorbs all

light with little or no reflection back, thus it becomes a receptacle or a transporter

for all that you do not need or want. Properly used, it can be one of the most

useful and powerful colours available. However, misused, it can cause disaster.

Associations:

Planet: Saturn

Day: Saturday

Energy: Female

Colours: Dark blues, Black, Dark Browns and most dark colours

Used For: Meditation rituals, uncrossing rituals and spells to banish evil

and negativity, to break up a blocked or stagnant situation. The Crone, the

unconscious.

Black: Use in rituals to induce a deep meditative state, or to banish evil or negativity as in uncrossing rituals; attracts Saturn energy.

Magickal Purpose: Absorption, why it is used for funerals. The void of all colours, it has the ability to absorb Quiet power, self-control, restriction, depression sickness, but new changes, rebirth. Wisdom, Control, Resilience, Discipline.

Personality: Someone who often dwells in his own dark recesses.A loner, but through choice. A strong silent type but someone you don't want to deal with if crossed. A night person as the darkness seems to be their safe place, their solace and quiet space. The things that make the "black" person unique, has also the tendency to dwell on things and has more bouts of depression than most others. This person tends to keep a lot of secrets.

Magickal Uses: Banishing negative thoughts and situations, reversing, uncrossing, binding negative forces, releasing, removing confusion, contact with spirits, dark magick, defensive spells (can be used with RED to increase intent).

spiritual realms. It is predominately feminine in energy, and is ruled by

and decide which colour best suits your particular needs. Generally speaking,

orange vibrates to physical and mental action, while yellow vibrates to mental

action only (better attributed to Wednesday/Mercury). Lastly, gold would be indicative of

intelligent, quick action with a monetary emphasis.

Energy: Male

Colours: Gold

honour solar deities, to heal and rejuvenate your being, attracting happy, active

people into your life, to expedite money you know is coming to you, to impart

energy and intelligence to take proper action in a monetary situation.

Gray-This colour is unique, due to its aspect of neutrality. Gray can be used

to neutralise anything from a magickal act that not longer serves your best

interest, to the neutralisation of destructive energies in a passive non-karmic

fashion. It is a perfect balance of black and white, and therefore absorbs and repels. With

this quality, grey draws in the undesirable energies and then sends them out to

the universe for dispersal as neither a destructive nor constructive properties.

Associations:

Planet: Moon

Colours: Grey

repercussion, to eradicate or jumble destructive forces, to attract neither

destructive nor constructive energies to your life (this includes people and

situations).

Green-Green really does bring the luck in cases of money. But be very clear

in your intent regarding money sought with this colour. If done with haste and no

specific intent it seems to fade quickly or trickle in a little at a time, just

enough to wet your appetite (refer to gold or brown). Green stimulates growth, plant life

or garden fairies. Green is an Earth colour and is used on Friday. Depending

upon the magickal system you employ, it may be used on Wednesday as it is a healing

day as well. Green used on Friday gives an emotional healing (matters of the

heart), while Wednesday emphasises healing knowledge.

Orange-Orange is a combination of yellow/Mercury (mental agility) and

red/Mars (action-energy). Thus you have the best of both worlds, the energies of the

actions of red, yet the intelligence to know how to use this action. The over

aggressive nature of the colour red/Mars is now toned and tapered with the healing

wisdom rays of yellow/Mercury that nurtures the entire system. Sunday is the best

day for the use of the colour orange. It can be used on Tuesday or Wednesday with

success, depending on your magickal goals. If used on Tuesday, the emphasis

is on physical action. If used on Wednesday, it is on mental actions whereas

Sunday is a

balance of both.

something in a big way, this is the colour to us. Purple expands anything you desire,

i.e.., spirituality, business, money, health or love. The royal blues are less

expansive, dealing more with the emotional and spiritual levels of Jupiter. Therefore,

the royal or dark blues of often attributed to Saturn. A word of caution,

however: if you do not already have the items of your desire, do not use Jupiter.

discernment to avoid disastrous results. The shade of red used or considered

to no absorption. Whenever in doubt in a magickal act, use white, which is the most

highly balanced form of spirituality possible. White contains virtues in

their highest form, and is therefore very protective. It is beyond the word or term

God/dess. It is the Creative Source itself, zero, the alpha, the light from

which all life springs, the female aspect of God, the Craft of the Wise, the full of

the moon, the symbol of the life giving Mother, and all female mysteries.
