ive made a decision i am adding the murder plot(s) i need the voices to leave me alone

[mad-hunts]

okay, i'm not saying that feeding barton would just straight up diffuse barton's need for being a murderous gremlin because that is just so deeply ingrained him in now that it's not even funny, but i'm also not saying if you — say — placed a quesadilla in front of barton right before he was about to do about something horrible to someone... that there couldn't be at least a bit of a chance he would think about eating that instead

How do your faith + trans support interlock with each other?

(This isn't me looking for a fight, I genuinely want to know.)

I don't want people to die.

I cannot share the love of Christ with someone if they are dead.

TALIA FORRESTER HOTD VERSE(S):

With fierce loyalty to the Targaryens from her mother’s House, House Branfield, a generous Ironwood supply to enrich the crown, and a dire need for a smaller House to be supported by the Starks and the Crown, Talia is sent off to King’s Landing to be an handmaiden to princess Helaena. When the Dance is in full force, Talia is torn between the loyalties of her House and the Starks with their backing of Rhaenyra, and her duty to Helaena.

I. BLOOD RUNS BLACK

Torn between duty and loyalty, Talia’s fierce Northernness erupts in full force and supports Rhaenyra’s claim to the Throne. She travels to Dragonstone to beg for safe passage back home to Ironrath to help support her family is providing supplies to Rhaenyra’s cause and supply any information she may have that may assist in winning the war.

II. THE DEFECTOR

Although her House supports Rhaenyra’s claim to the throne, Talia’s loyalty lies with Helaena. On demand from her family for her to return home, Talia refuses in order to continue serving Helaena and aid in her cause however she can. With House Branfield supporting Aegon’s claim, she will do anything in her power to make sure Helaena is supported during the Dance.

III. THE SONGBIRD

Torn between duty and loyalty, Talia decides to remain in King’s Landing to serve Helaena. However, in the guise of night, she drifts through Flea Bottom sharing any secrets from within the Keep to help strengthen Rhaenyra’s knowledge on the weaknesses of the Greens in hopes she claims the Throne. Trying to protect her identity, she is only known as “Songbird”. Risking her life with these treasonous acts, she must stay true to her family’s loyalty to the Blacks, even if her heart lies with caring for Helaena and trying to keep her safe.

I might be ~quirky~ for this (welcome to my twisted mind and etc) but I genuinely have so much fun with shipping nowadays, ever since I chose to be singleship for each muse. I feel like my adhd has never allowed me to pour even half as much care and attention into a ship as I'd have loved to when I had multiple ones at the same time per muse, so being able to focus on a single romantic dynamic per muse really feels like a weight off my shoulders

[nuks]

Last Line Tag Game

tagged by @post-and-out

RULES: Post the last sentence you wrote (fanfic / original / anything) and tag as many people as there are words in the sentence (unless you're like me and write enough run on sentences to where you can't possibly tag that many people for words).

SO MINE is from a third draft, so it's not, strictly speaking, new words, but it is the last line of fic I wrote. So there.

Junko draws a gasp unbidden from her then pulls away, licks her lips, and hums when she says, “You taste like blood.”

Also not gonna tag over twenty people because, ah, nope. BUT. I will tag people!

Orchestra

And here's Anzu for the muse au!

Her theme is dream, but most of her powers are associated with butterflies and reflections (they're both pretty common imagery used for dreams to my understanding).

Her magic is extremely strong, and she tends to be more reliant on it rather than using physical strength. Besides her fancy ballet like fighting style, she also has the ability to invoke forgotten dreams in people who lost faith in the path they're taking. She has been a muse for a couple of years, but she worked alone up until she moved back to Domino and met Yugi again.

🦋 🦋 🦋 🦋 🦋

In the au, Anzu moved away from Domino right after she finished high school to pursue her dreams of becoming a dancer. She hasn't made it to Broadway yet, but she is getting there!

One day I'm going to dive into the absolute depth of Xehanort's presence as a singularity. From him realizing it, how life/death itself is also just another scale when it comes to the Heart, and the many, many ways where even his finality has a way it can take a voyage all the same.

It wasn't only Sora or the others who grew exponentially in this voyage of a finale. In kind, Xehanort also wound up making explosive forms of growth as well. In particular, his iterations in Remind and Melody of Memory, which was a Xehanort who could actively explore the Heart now, except compared to Sora, being part of the dead makes him restricted to really particular circumstances.

I think the final nail we've never got to see was Xehanort in his totality. Only just now of all time we've gained glimpses of it, but what about his Heart that etched countless secretly lessons into it through the depth of his travels? There were a side goals he carried in 3 that never really got explored in depth.

. Learning the fate of Subject X. In kind, discovering a central pipeline to not just the age of Fairy Tales. (He's already had Marluxia and Larxene if that was all), but a particular element.

. Through Xemnas as a proxy, unveil the gathering of those lost wielders of the old Keyblade past.

. His exploration of the 'Other Side/Unreality.' Through the 'etching' process of the heart, influencing his Terra-Xehanort iteration to give Kairi a task that was dual sided in nature. (The eventuality if the keybearer/Sora was either in the Light Realm or the Other side entirely.) Which to me, feels like a new plotline for Xehanort after getting him further attuned to those days.

In short? After becoming another victim of the MoM's machinations, and in turn a great threat himself, his own hand thrown into pushing disarray into the MoM's designs shouldn't be slept on. This IS one of the few figures MoM actively sought out himself. There's a potential he recognizes.

Some Whalers I redrew the other day! I never really shared the original, or wrote down much about it, but I think these were my takes on Misha (left) and Thomas (right) at the time

And for comparison, the original drawing from (I believe) 2020:

☽ ・WHAT MAKES A PERSONALITY.

a template ( created by the wonderful Ree ) for analyzing features of a personality beyond listing adjectives. written beneath a readmore because of length, not spoilers!

SELF-CONCEPT

VIEW OF SELF: highly upheld on a pedestal created by her late tribe and the hierarchy of Fell Churches. though clouded by a heavy sense of superiority, there is the slightest chance of self-awareness from her, though it is an introspection that takes time. what is important to her is that she, above anyone else, knows her heart and mind. no one else can claim to relate to all she has lived through and she knows this; though the level of tragedy she connects this with is debatable. likewise, her view of self is duller than her view of others, as she truly does not care for herself at her core. this is not self-deprecation, rather it is the monotonous feeling that comes from knowing that, at the end of the day, she is what her tribe and Sombron have made of her. there is nothing else and nothing more.

VIEW OF OTHERS: hardly memorable. unlike her, time will pass for them and they will die, so their only purpose is to serve until their last breath. will she remember their names? hardly, but the impact they have will outlive their body. as a direct result of her behavioral inconsistencies and traumas, she alienates herself from society and, thus, does not view humanity and other immortal beings in any positive light. they are only useful under a leash. they are only useful if they can be wielded as pawns. if they stray from their fated path, then they must be punished. it is as much a law as it is instinct. either way, none of them will equate to the space necessary in the void of her heart; what she needs is a family, and other people cannot give this to her.

VIEW OF WORLD: unforgiving. selfish. the world is cruel to those who surpass their fate and, thus, she bares her teeth and takes as much from the world as she thinks she deserves; which is everything it has to offer. in her eyes, the world is ever-changing and will not wait for you to mend your wounds, no matter how closely you hold it at heart. you will not survive if you are not the aggressor. her environment taught her that pain is love and such love, one strong enough to destroy what it has created, is punishment, in its own way. to love was to hurt until you knew nothing else; to grieve was to love with all your heart. if you sought love then you had to seek the pain that is obligated with it upon your faults. thus, all relationships of value between her and the world were, and will always be, transactional.

MOTIVATIONS & GOALS: serve as Lord Sombron's greatest follower until he sees her as fit to be the mother of his child. whether it be one or plenty, she hopes to bear them and give fruit to lives of her blood. upon birth, they are hers, as a mother and idol and god. and that, the idea that, one day, someone she brought into the world will revolve that very world around her, is what keeps her focused on the future. but somewhere, along the line, another motivation has formed upon her arrival; protect the Four Hounds and restore what they once were.

WHEY THEY VALUE MOST: family, both in the physical and metaphorical sense. the idea of having and taking from someone who owes you their entire life for giving fruit to theirs.

EMOTIONAL REACTIONS

REACTION TO STRESS: most, if not all, negative emotions end in her lashing out in an attempt to regain the control she once lost. so, when stressed, her composure falters; she becomes jittery, scheming, and distant. she'll refocus all of her energy on picking apart the stressor and, upon recognizing what it is, eliminating it without hesitation. this could mean directly destroying the stressor or completing it, but whichever it is, she does not ignore it. it, also, does not matter what this stress comes from; whether it be a responsibility, environment, or person. the execution, however, of this determination is usually heartless and selfish, as she will go through anything and anyone to calm the nerves of her heart.

REACTION TO FEAR: though fear, too, is a negative emotion, it does not necessarily end in an unwavering sense of hostility. to fear something is to think that it has the weight to actually affect you. and, thus, it is fine to say that fear isn't an emotion she's faced often in her thousand years of life. upon first face of this subject causing her fear, she's incredulous. confused or shocked, rather than frightful. but when the emotion sets in, she becomes quieter. curt. this silence is not submissive, lest it be in the face of Sombron. her following reaction will be to right what has been wronged; control. she will combat this fear with confrontation if the risks prove to be lesser, but she knows her limits and will not provoke the fear if it will bring her harm.

REACTION TO SUCCESS: to revel in her success is not rare. this is, usually, done in the form of taunting the losing party. however, her reaction to success differs between the success of herself and the success of those she deems as hers. for the former, she does not seek praise. it is not the acknowledgment she requires, as that is flawed and not taken at heart's value. if not from Sombron, then she does not want it. however, praise is what she requires when her pawns succeed. for them to win is a win for her, as it reinforces the greedy pride of being able to create something worth loving. otherwise, success, to her, is conditional and can always be revoked. it is not something worth celebrating by the masses. in fact, it could be argued that success makes her hungrier for the possible retaliation that will follow.

REACTION TO FAILURE: depends highly on who she fails regarding the event. in light of disappointing Sombron, her apologies are swift, curt, as there is nothing else to say. her willingness to right, again, what has been wronged is high and she will take no other answer unless she's given the other chance. there is no guilt, as she does not recognize such a feeling, but the feeling aches similarly. if in the case of failing herself, her reaction is duller. again, at her core, she has come to terms with the fate she's been given, so all she is to do is find her way back unto the path paved for her. she'll try again, more determined, but emotional reactions are little to none. she understands herself best and will right herself accordingly, aiming to engrain into her the teachings that made her who she is.

DEVELOPMENT

IDEAL SELF: is constantly changing, to the point where she cannot fully recognize where she, herself, wants to be. what amount of development would be enough? from whom would this development come from? all she knows is that the ideal life she sees fit for herself is that of a mother, as it was the only thing able to fill the void in her heart. key word: was. new events have shone a light on her ideals and hope to shift them. unfortunately, because of her lack of concern for who or what she becomes, as her fate will always be written before her, the exact ideal self is unknown.

AREAS OF GROWTH: as mentioned before, loneliness is still a factor she hopes to heal. being alienated from others, even dragons like herself, because of the behavior she adapted to in hopes of defending her heart will always prove her efforts futile. to grow requires the knowledge to understand exactly what is necessary beforehand. thus, her concept of what can heal her is false and flawed. it's simple and, if she does not recognize her emotions and pick apart the years of manipulation, all will be hopeless.

BARRIERS TO GROWTH: the inability to wear her heart anywhere that is not the steel bars of her ribcages; the continuous conquest of favor for Sombron; the inability to recognize how she has affected the world and vice versa; the inability to be truthful lest she fear bleeding out on the spot; and time wearing away at the familiarity she should have with her own emotions. there is a lot that stands as an obstacle to her development. none of it will disappear quickly, so she must approach it slowly and with patience.
