Commission for @trydianth of Entrapta operating tiny trains (since she loves tiny food so much!)

Image ID: Entrapta from She-Ra is grinning and fiddling with some train cars on her model train set. Entrapta is a tan-skinned woman with pink hair in large prehensile tentacle-like pony tails. Her regular hands are on the train layout table but she’s messing with the train cars with her hair. She’s also using her hair to control the model railway’s power transformer, which is hooked up to a First One’s crystal. The train layout contains a yard with three sidings with five freight cars and a purple tank engine. It also contains a loop that goes back and forth between a simplistic diorama of dark purple Dryll castle on the left and of Brightmoon castle on the left, with a small diorama of the Whispering Woods’ dark blue trees in the foreground. There’s a spur track that runs off-screen with the ominous reddish glow of the Fright Zone. A pretty streamlined tan, white, and gold train is coming from that line. On the loop line near Entrapta is seven freight cars and a scary looking military-green diesel with a Horde insignia. End Image ID.

Under the cut are some detail close-ups and artist’s notes.

Flatbed of First Ones Tech, FZR Boxcar, two unnamed vans, a refrigerated Salineas Fisheries boxcar, an unnamed tank wagon, a gondola of snow from the Kingdom of Snows, a Fred Pelhay Coal Co. truck for some reason, a Plumeria Products boxcar, and a Freight Zone Rail Road boxcar with graffiti reading She-Ra was Here.

A Freight Zone Rail locomotive and an old industrial shunter tank engine from Dryll Quarry.

Bright Moon Railway’s cab-forward streamliner, coming from the Fright Zone. Does that make sense? Perhaps not, but I hasten to remind the viewer that this is just Entrapta’s toy model.

I definitely put more detail into this than I intended to! It was going to be a lot simpler, but by the time I got to drawing and then perspective-skewing an actual model railway layout with sidings and switches I realized this was going to take a while. I wasn’t quite sure what to do for the engine visual style. At first the locomotive positioned next to the Dryll tank engine was going to be a big Dryllian steam engine, but I decided it’d be better to show a big scary Horde diesel.

I used steam engines for the good guys and a diesel for the bad guys soley and completely because i am thomas the tank engine-brained because I just like the look of steam engines! There’s no realistic reason why there should be steam traction in Etheria, rather than something entirely magical--but then, steam engines just look better in fantasy settings in my opinion! I can justify it, after-the-fact though: magic is everywhere in Etheria, but it can’t be harnessed by everyone (during the events of the series). Sometimes transportion has to be done through mundane means. And it’s not like we see any big power plants on Etheria, so electricity is out. Entrapta’s one of the only people who uses first one’s tech to power her inventions--otherwise we see no powerplants in Dryll. So. Wood or coal or magic-crystal powered steam engines! Yipee!

Obviously they’re all electric powered in this model, though.

anti romantic

chapter 19 : this thing was a masterpiece ‘til you tore it all apart

synopsis : anti romantic, college student choi yeonjun who thinks he’s seen everything in a relationship, promising himself that he won’t go through another relationship ever again to prevent himself from going through another heartbreak. that was until he sees yn, a classmate, chasing his heart. will his walls be enough to scare yn away, or will they continue chasing yeonjun with all they have ?

warnings: cuss words, angst, yeonjun seeming like the bad guy but he’s not :(( i need someone to give jun a hug :(( OH also a mention of committing suicide in one of the tweets..

pink cherry-like leaves fell from the trees, slight spring breeze shaking them off the tree branches, decorating the sidewalk. the sun beginning to set, hiding behind a few clouds, the moon made its presence known. there were certainties in the world: when spring arrived, more flowers bloomed, while others died because they weren’t in season.. when the sun were to rise, the daylight would soon enough lose its shine and be covered the by the moon.

and maybe another certainty, was that you were meant to lose yeonjun.

with everything that yoojung had already tried to do to get the two of you to split up, well it was inevitable. the sad thing was that you were so willing to sacrifice your own mental being to stay with yeonjun, and that wasn’t right. whereas yeonjun was willing to give up his relationship with you to ensure your happiness.. but why was that also not right ? it was the right thing to do, but yeonjun had made such a huge impact in your life that.. well you couldn’t lose him, especially not to yoojung, who had already caused so much harm on his life.

although, you knew. you knew that this little “cheating” scandal was just supposed to act as a way to get you and yeonjun to tussle over it. so if you knew that this was probably apart of yoojung’s whole plan to get you and yeonjun to break up, why did it hurt so much. to be fair, yeonjun’s lips were very much placed on someone else’s.

the boy in the picture was him.

and yoojung just so happened to be the one receiving the kiss.

it hurt. it hurt so badly.

the two of you promised to treat each other so well. to love each other a way that no one else has ever showed the two of you. a love so sweet and powerful that it was bound to stick along forever.

that’s what you planned with yeonjun.

a future so loving and adoring that the only people you would need in your life was each other.

a future where all you needed was to tell each other that you loved one another, and end each day off with cuddles.

so here you were as your head lied on soobin’s shoulder, tiny crystal-like tears escaping your eyes. the tv displaying a random rom-com, but each rom-com came with its unfortunate climax, where the main characters would learn something about the other causing them to call it off.

you never believed life would ever be like a rom-com, after all they were fictional stories that were being told to place hope in its audience or just to get a good giggle out of the viewer. but here you were, planning a movie-like future with yeonjun while facing the many obstacles that it would take to overcome any problems and show yeonjun just how much you truly loved him.

you felt soobin tense up, feeling like maybe it was making you uncomfortable… and it was, but after all you were the one who chose the movie, even after soobin recommended a ton of different action, disney movies.

soobin hated this entire situation, he hated yeonjun.. well maybe he didn’t hate hate him.but he definitely didn’t like him as much as he did before. he for sure did hate yoojung, who was she to try to destroy your relationship. the blame was all on her, she’s the one who cheated on yeonjun so why did you and yeonjun deserve to suffer over an option that she made.

soobin hated one thing the most : seeing you cry.

you were such a warm-hearted person, crying did not look good on you at all. there were times when soobin would come off a bit cold, and you were always volunteering to stay by his side. even a few months ago when beomgyu accidentally rejected soobin, you were there immediately after finding out what happened.

soobin recalled back to his childhood. the way that not all the kids in his neighborhood liked him, specifically because his name was always used as a comparison to the other kids. their mothers always making comments like “you should’ve done better, i heard soobin made a 110.” and while your grades weren’t always perfect, they were close, but even your own mother compared you to soobin, you were always there for him.

soobin remembers one time when he was walking out to get groceries, seeing a bundle of kids in the playground. they were all surrounding you, they continuously attempted to talk behind his back, not knowing that he was right there. however; you happened to shut down each insult, talking about how he isn’t a bad guy, and how it’s rude for them to talk behind his back. he remembers the way that you walked up to him, catching his presence. gifting him your presence to his way to the convenience store. as he asked why you were so adamant on not allowing others to talk bad about him. recalling your words, “well because it’s simply just rude, not only that but you work so hard to get such good grades and it’s not fair that they look down on you just because you do well. you’re not even a bad guy, you’re quite lovely.”

he knew what other kids said about him everyday, even if you tried to cover it up from him. he appreciated the thought. and since then, you two were like peas in a pod. never separating, only having each other to protect yourselves from the cruel, harsh world.

so here he was, his ears catching the noise of a few sniffles that originated from your nose. he leaned forward a bit, not wanting to move you too much. he grabbed a few tissues, passing them onto you. you showed him a soft yet sad smile, trying to hide your sadness.

“yah, don’t try to force yourself to seem happy, let it all out yn.. you deserve that atleast-“

soobin was cut off by a knock at the door, looking over at you. “i’ll get it, soob, don’t worry..” you removed your head off his shoulder, getting up. you slipped on a pair of black slippers that soobin brought.

your legs guided you towards the door. your hand twisting the knob, opening the door only to spot a tense-looking yeonjun.

“h-hey…” you greeted, your body still blocking the path to enter your apartment.

“do you have someone over ?” he asked, taking a peek at his watch, noticing as time passed.

“just soobin..” you mumbled, watching as yeonjun seemed to be in a rush. and in all honestly it hurt you, he couldn’t spare you a bit of time even after such an intense picture was revealed to you and nearly 18 thousand people ?

“oh.. well do you have time to talk, it’ll be quick.” yeonjun questioned. in all honesty he was in pain too, he hated coming off too coldly towards you. after everything that has happened, he just wanted to wrap you in his arms and tell you that it was all going to be okay. he wanted to press small kisses all over your face and tell you that you’re the only one he’s ever wanted. he wanted to tell you about how you changed him, how you made him into such a loving being. but here he was, about to hurt you even more. he hated this. he hated your red swollen eyes, your nose was also red, looking down to your hand seeing the tissue that you grasped. it broke his heart, he didn’t want to ever see you in such a state of vulnerability, you didn’t deserve that.. you only deserved all the happiness in the world.

“umm.. yeah-“

“lets break up.”

you looked at him, wide eyes open. eyes tearing up, your mouth open. before you composed yourself, eyes still shiny with tears, looking at him with still a bit of shock on your face.

“y-yeonjun you’re not being serious, right ? i know that picture wasn’t as it seemed.. it was all yoojung and karina’s doing right ! i don’t hate you over those pictures yeonjun ! i know that it’s all just to get us to brea-“

“yn.. i’m being serious, it was me in those pictures. karina had nothing to do with it, it was just me and yoojung. yn, i just- i don’t love you.” yeonjun tried his best to avoid your eyes, his voice nearly cracking from delivering those words to you.

yeonjun regretted this so much, but it was better for you, it was better for you to stay happy without him. he needed to protect you.. he had no idea what yoojung would do to hurt you.

he continued to avoid your eyes, seeing the way that they were tearing up, he knew you were holding it back. all he wanted to do was to hug you, tell you that it’s all because of yoojung. tell you that it was all because yoojung is threatening your mental being and your relationship. but he couldn’t, he wanted to, but it was best if you hated him, rather than trying to change his mind. he knew that you would rather go through so much pain to stay with him.

soobin got up from the couch, only hearing the last few words that yeonjun said to you. he made his way to the door way, eying yeonjun from head to toe.

“leave.” soobin said, backing you away from the door. he knew he was about to make a few remarks towards yeonjun and he didn’t want you to be there for that. he didn’t want you to see him fighting with the person who you adored for such a long time.

“yah, soobin, this has nothing to do with you.”

“it does, yn is my best friend, and if you’re going to be so fucking rude while breaking up with them, then i’m going to get involved. did you expect me to just stand there while you hurt my friend.. they did their best to make you happy, yn helped you recover from a breakup, and yet here you are.. you’re no different than yoojung. so leave. what is it about cheating that makes the two of you feel so fulfilled ? and you can’t even say that you lacked gaining affection, because yn gave you more than enough of affection..”

yeonjun’s heart crumpled from soobin’s words, ‘you’re no different than yoojung.’ he didn’t like that, he didn’t want to be like yoojung.. he never wanted to be compared to yoojung.

soobin pushed yeonjun’s shoulder with two fingers, ignoring anything that you were saying to him.

“leave and never come back.” soobin yelled, slamming the door shut and locking it. looking over to see your crying figure. pulling you into a hug, his hand on the back of your head, as if you could get any closer. he felt the wet patch growing on his tee. he didn’t mind though, that was the least of his worries. he just wanted you to feel okay.

“don’t listen to anything that he said, i know that i kinda pushed it too far. but.. im sure he did love you, i took a psychology class, remember ? that means i know all about body language..” soobin claimed, hoping to at least get a little giggle out of you. which worked, he felt you laugh against his chest. you pulled away from his embrace, wiping off your tears aggressively.

“lets finish the movie !” you exclaimed, tears still rolling down your face and a pout still visible on your lips. but soobin loved that you were trying your best to recover.

whereas, yeonjun walked through the city, the night sky engulfing him as he walked without a destination. he scanned the crowd, seeing a few familiar faces from his dance students, smiles plastered on their faces. but yeonjun continued walking, not stopping to say hello. his throat felt clogged, and his eyes felt teary, but he was holding it all in. he took a seat on a bench, wired headphones in his ears, attempting to distract him.. but in reality it only made things worse as he could only think of the situation.. he wanted to full on bawl, but he didn’t want to go home to taehyun…

Why I Think The Royal Magic Wand Took The Form That It Did For Some Of The Past Rulers Of Mewni

Ok. Here I’ll be going over my thoughts on why the Royal Magic Wand took the form that it did for some of the past rulers of Mewni. As shown in the episode ‘Star Comes To Earth’, the Royal Magic Wand takes a different form depending on who is wielding it. So, I’ll be going over some of the rulers of Mewni and how each of their version of the Royal Magic Wand corresponds to each of them. Also, Spoiler Alert for the Star VS The Forces Of Evil TV series and the Star VS The Forces Of Evil: The Magic Book Of Spells. With that out of the way, let’s dive right in.

I think that the reason why Queen Skywynne’s version of the Royal Magic Wand had a clock on it is pretty self-explanatory. After all, as shown in the Skywynne Queen Of Hours chapter of Star VS The Forces Of Evil: The Magic Book Of Spells, Queen Skywynne had quite a few spells that manipulate time. And as also shown in the Skywynne Queen Of Hours chapter of Star VS The Forces Of Evil: The Magic Book Of Spells, Queen Skywynne saw time as an infinite paradox when she first grabbed the Royal Magic Wand. So, that probably also caused it to have a clock motif. Queen Skywynne’s version of the Royal Magic Wand also had black onyx crystal that made up the hands on its clock and black onyx crystal also partly powers Queen Skywynne’s version of the Royal Magic Wand as shown in the Skywynne Queen Of Hours chapter. I heard that the color black is sometimes associated with regeneration and new beginnings which makes it fitting for Queen Skywynne since, as stated in the Skywynne Queen Of Hours chapter, she was the first queen to write in the new Magic Book Of Spells since the old one was also destroyed in a fire and, despite the loss of almost all the knowledge of magic from her ancestors, created some really powerful spells like the Infuriating Repeater spell which helped construct a new and better version of Butterfly Castle after the old version was destroyed in said fire. I think that’s pretty much regeneration from the destruction of almost all the knowledge from Queen Skywynne’s ancestors and the destruction of the old version of Butterfly Castle. And it marked a new beginning for the Butterfly family just like how the hands on a clock mark the time of the day. Queen Skywynne persevered through that fearful and dark time which makes it fitting that black onyx crystal helps to power her wand since I heard that black onyx crystal is associated with overcoming overwhelming fears and worries. As shown in the Skywynne Queen Of Hours chapter, Queen Skywynne’s wand also had ringing bells on it that make a sound that could only be heard by dogs, ferrets and pig-goats. I think that’s fitting since, as shown in the Skywynne Queen Of Hours chapter, Skywynne is loyal to her kingdom just like how a dog is loyal to their owner, is intelligent just like a ferret and has an immense desire to learn more about magic spells just like how a pig-goat, as shown in the Moon The Undaunted chapter, has an immense desire for food. And I think the ringing bells on top of the clock on Queen Skywynne’s wand are also fitting because just like how an alarm clock rings to signal a person to wake up, the kingdom of Mewni rang its bell to signal Queen Skywynne to stay awake to serve it and Skywynne did just that by not following her lazy mother’s example as shown in the Skywynne Queen Of Hours chapter.

As shown in the Jushtin The Uncalculated chapter of Star VS The Forces Of Evil: The Magic Book Of Spells, Jushtin’s version of the Royal Magic Wand is a pink and white striped cane with a living alligator head and a heart with wings on it. And as also shown in the Jushtin The Uncalculated chapter, Jushtin was pretty upbeat. I think that the pink and white striped cane part of Jushtin’s wand was a nod to how upbeat Jushtin was. After all, the pink and white striped cane does kinda look like a candy cane and candy canes seem to convey cheerfulness and optimism. As for the living alligator head, I think that came from the fact that Jushtin is, as shown in the Jushtin The Uncalculated chapter, very loyal to his family and to his kingdom. After all, as stated in the Jushtin The Uncalculated chapter, the living alligator head on Jushtin’s wand never bites their Jushtin since he’s their ‘dad’ and they love him. And I think the heart with wings came from Jushtin’s love for the people around him. After all, as shown in the Jushtin The Uncalculated chapter, Jushtin loved his mother Skywynne, his math tutor and his “Boy-Prince Cru”.

As shown in the Solaria The Monster Carver chapter of Star VS The Forces Of Evil: The Magic Book Of Spells, Solaria’s version of the Royal Magic Wand is a sword that harnesses aggression. I think the reason for that is so obvious that I don’t think it has to be explained that much. After all, as shown in the Solaria The Monster Carver chapter, Solaria seems to love fighting and is also extremely aggressive to the point of taking cruel enjoyment out of the deaths of monsters.

As shown in the Eclipsa The Queen Of Darkness chapter of Star VS The Forces Of Evil: The Magic Book Of Spells, Queen Eclipsa’s version of the Royal Magic Wand is an umbrella. I think the reason why that is the case is because of how Eclipsa coped with her trauma. As shown in the episode ‘Moon The Undaunted’, Eclipsa was frozen in a crystal for generations. Also, as shown in the episode ‘Butterfly Trap’, Eclipsa was labeled as evil for marrying a monster named Globgor and Eclipsa’s daughter Meteora was taken away from her after she was frozen in that crystal. So, Eclipsa has suffered quite a lot over the course of her life. But, despite that, Eclipsa seems pretty calm and optimistic. For example, as shown in the episode ‘Stranger Danger’, Eclipsa seemed pretty calm despite everything that she’s been through. Picture Eclipsa’s trauma as a rainstorm and Eclipsa’s rather surprising ability to cope with it as an umbrella. The proverbial umbrella that is Eclipsa’s ability to cope with her trauma helped to at least more or less persevere through the proverbial rainstorm that is her trauma. So, I think that Eclipsa’s wand taking the form of an umbrella symbolized her ability to cope with her trauma.

As shown in Crescenta The Eager chapter of Star VS The Forces Of Evil: The Magic Book Of Spells, Queen Crescenta has quite an overinflated ego and, if her spells are any indication, seemed to have a screw loose. That makes it quite ironic that Crescenta’s version of the Royal Magic Wand has 3 hearts on it. One heart made of ruby. One heart with a ribbon wrapped around it. And one heart right above the crystal heart. In the Crescenta The Eager chapter, Crescenta claimed that a heart on her wand meant that she had a big heart and truly wanted to help her kingdom. But given that, as also shown in the Crescenta The Eager chapter, Crescenta not only had an oversized ego but also came up with the Monster Arm spell and a spell to turn her sister into a wolf, I doubt that’s the case. So, I think those 3 hearts on Crescenta’s wand mean something else. Here’s a metaphor to explain what I think the ruby heart means. Crescenta had a heart frozen in ruby. As everyone knows, a frozen heart is a metaphor used to describe someone who is apathetic and detached from the people around them. And like I pointed out, Crescenta came up with spells like the Monster Arm spell and a spell to turn her sister into a wolf. So, in that regard, Crescenta definitely has a frozen heart. As for the part about Crescenta’s heart being frozen in ruby, I think that reflects Crescenta’s ego and pride. After all, just like how a ruby can gleam in the light, Crescenta likes to gleam in the spotlight. There’s also something else I noticed about the crystal heart on Crescenta’s wand. It’s on a purple heart and around that, an outline of a yellow heart. I heard that the color purple is associated with royalty, nobility, luxury, power and ambition which corresponds well with Crescenta’s personality since, as shown in the Crescenta The Eager chapter, she had an ambitious desire to become queen. I also heard that the color yellow is associated with joy and happiness which corresponds disturbingly well with how Crescenta, as also shown in the Crescenta The Eager chapter, used a spell on herself to remove all negativity from her mind in order to stay optimistic and cheerful. In this regard, I also think it’s fitting that the outline of the yellow heart is around the purple heart since, as shown in the Crescenta The Eager chapter, the reason why Crescenta used that spell on herself to remove all the negativity from her mind and stay cheerful was in order to help prepare herself for her royal duties and thus fulfill her ambitions as a royal. That means that Crescenta’s desire to be happy and cheerful was a byproduct of her ambitions as a royal. And I think the reason why the ruby heart is in the center of the purple heart and the yellow heart is because the crystal heart, as I explained earlier, reflects Crescenta’s desire to be in the spotlight which is right in the center of and also what sparked Crescenta’s ambitions as a royal that the purple heart reflects which then sparked Crescenta’s desire to be happy and cheerful that the yellow heart reflects. Also, there’s another heart right above the ruby heart, the purple heart and the yellow heart. I think that heart reflects how much Crescenta puts her heart into her exploits in order to fulfill her desires and ambitions. After all, as stated in the Crescenta The Eager chapter, while Crescenta does indeed have an overinflated ego, she at least works hard to get to where she is partly because she did join the Junior Castle Guard in order to keep watch over the castle during the night. There’s also one more heart with a ribbon-like bow right below the ruby heart, the purple heart and the yellow heart. I think that heart with the ribbon-like bow around it reflects Crescenta’s love for her status. Ironically, I also think that’s why there are swan feathers attached to the heart with the ribbon-like bow. I heard that swan feathers are sometimes considered a warning that something is out of balance. I think that’s fitting because, while status and power are good and all, they can’t love a person back.

As shown in the Comet The Chef chapter of the Star VS The Forces Of Evil: The Magic Book Of Spells, Comet loved cooking and making food. I think that makes it fitting that Queen Comet’s wand crystal was, as stated in the Comet The Chef chapter, made of a type of quartz called Baker’s Quartz since I heard that quartz is a great countertop material for those who like to cook and bake. I think Comet loving to cook and make food also makes it fitting that her wand handle, as also stated in the Comet The Chef chapter, was a rolling dowel which is a tool for making food. And as stated in the Comet The Chef chapter, Comet’s wand also had hearts and angel-like wings on it. I think that represents how Comet, as shown in the Comet The Chef chapter, was very kind to the point that she wanted to make peace with all of monster kind. That’s very impressive considering the fact that, as far as recorded Mewni history is concerned, Comet was the only royal besides Queen Eclipsa and Star Butterfly who wanted to do so.

As shown in the Moon The Undaunted chapter of Star VS The Forces Of Evil: The Magic Book Of Spells, Queen Moon used to be pretty optimistic and happy but then was deeply traumatized by the death of her mother. And as also shown in the Moon The Undaunted chapter, the crystal on Moon’s wand was heart-shaped and a type of crystal from the Crystal Dimension that was almost indestructible. I think that’s fitting since Moon’s heart used to be full of happiness and optimism before then being hardened by the death of her mother. I think that the fact that it was an almost indestructible type of crystal represented just how hardened Moon’s heart was. After all, Moon’s heart was hardened to the point that, as shown in the episode ‘Mr. Candle Cares’, when Star asked Moon: “Are you happy?”, Moon responded with: “Happy? What difference does that make?”. And as stated in the Moon The Undaunted chapter, Moon’s wand handle was made of Snakewood, a material that’s found in the Neverzone, a region in Dimension X-103. And as shown in the episode ‘Running With Scissors’, time in Dimension X-103 flows differently to the point that 16 years in Dimension X-103 and, by extension, the Neverzone equals 8 minutes on Earth which caused Marco Diaz to become an adult while he was there whereas all of his friends on Earth were still teenagers. I think this is a nod to how Moon, as shown in the episode ‘Moon The Undaunted’, was forced to, at least metaphorically, grow up as if she were an adult despite the fact that she was still a teenager at the time.

As shown in the Star The Underestimated chapter of Star VS The Forces Of Evil: The Magic Book Of Spells, Star’s version of the Royal Magic Wand has what seems to be one star on top of another one with 5 hearts around it. And as shown in the episode ‘Star Comes To Earth’, Star is incredibly optimistic and is an extremely passionate person. So, I think the star represents Star’s optimism since, as probably knows, looking to the stars is sometimes associated with feeling hope and the 5 hearts represent Star’s passion since being passionate about something means, metaphorically speaking, pouring your heart into it. I think this might also explain why Star can be so chaotic sometimes which was something that was demonstrated in the episode ‘Star VS. Echo Creek’ where Star got into a sugar rush and accidentally destroyed a police car. After all, having too much of the hopes and dreams of an optimist combined with too much of the heart and drive of a passionate person could cause someone to have so much heart and drive to achieve their hopes and dreams that they might take things too far. There’s also a butterfly with a couple of angel-like wings right next to it. I heard that butterflies symbolize change and transformation. So, I think that represents how Star changed when it came to her view of monster-kind. After all, as shown in the episode ‘Lobster Claws’, Star used to think that monsters were nothing but evil but as shown in the episode ‘Mewnipendence Day’, Star’s view on monsters changed to the point that she let Buff-Frog go and later gave him some corn. And I think the angel-like wings represent the kindness Star showed as a result. Also, I think that Star’s wand crystal being yellow represents Star’s optimism. As I said earlier, Star is pretty optimistic and as I also said earlier, I heard that the color yellow is sometimes associated with happiness.

Well, that’s all for this post.

See you all next time.

So I had a realization. Yeah I'm not shutting up about Unova yet, moving on to DD's Theory Corner.

In the event we get a Legends Unova or similar, I'm pretty damn sure Charizard could be the fire type starter, or at least get a variant or new form.

"Oh but it has enough forms" and? Charizard is Game Freak's favorite little nepo baby. He even got a new model way ahead of the other Kanto starters again recently.

This is what makes me think so:

This is the thing: someone at Game Freak has been going back through the Unova games for even the slightest bit of text or reference- evidence is the way you encounter Meloetta with the Sepia Filter on your camera in Indigo Disk, a reference to the guy in that Castelia cafe that says he saw Meloetta in "sepia tone memories." Another thing is the near 1 to 1 mapping of the pokemon reserve from BW2 that matches a location in the Canyon Biome, where you can find a shiny Haxorus in BW or a Stellar Haxorus in Blueberry Academy- further proof they are fine combing the games for references at this point.

If we're simply theorizing and speculating, I think that drawbridge might be a pretty likely description to draw inspiration from. Much like how Archaludon draws inspiration from the Sky Arrow Bridge connecting Pinwheel Forest to Castelia.

Here's another thing: the bridge is redder than your average Charizard, more of a Charmeleon color. In addition, it's referred to as such for its "beauty and elegance."

I understand beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but elegance? Charizard doesn't strike me as beautiful or elegant, more like powerful, cool, and ferocious. Something like that description could fit something like Serperior better, imo.

Now mind you I'm not one of those people that are like "THIS NPC SAID SHE WANTED A PINK POKEMON WITH FLOWER PATTERNS IN GEN 1!!!! THEY WERE HINTING AT MUNNA FOR 5 GENERATIONS!!!!" or "THERE'S TERA CRYSTALS IN DRIFTVEIL! THEY WERE HINTING FOR 15 YEARS!!!!" because let's be honest, GF does NOT plan that far back. Maybe 4 years at best.

BUT.

It is entirely reasonable to speculate that, in accordance to the knowledge that they are actively looking back at the Unova games for the slightest details, Charizard COULD have another new form, either in the form of a Legends Starter variant or a similar case to Blood Moon Ursaluna. If I had to guess, maybe the form of an Eastern dragon akin to Shenlong? Those are beautiful and elegant to some extent.

Of course this is just pure speculation. But, let's say on Pokémon day, or even next November or January of 2025 or something: If we see Unova and Charmander in the same location, well pick up the phone cuz I will have called it.

Here’s the explanation for fellow baby witches

The Full Moon is a lunar phase associated with using your power and energy and sealing intentions that were set on the New Moon, and that we have been actively working towards during the Waxing Moon.

It is around this time that indications of my intentions should start to show (and let me tell you—they're showing. I have a date next week. I also haven't experienced my usual heart palpitations when I'm in a situation that usually gives me social anxiety. I'm still working on my communication skills though).

However, these intentions won't be fully manifested until the next time the Full Moon is in the same sign the New Moon was in when i set these intentions (which is generally around 6 months).

The Full Moon is strongest in the three days leading up to it or on the Full Moon exact. I performed these two spells on the exact date of the Full Moon at night.

You can view the affirmations I used in these spells here. For each spell I used whichever correspondences I had available to support my intentions. Jasmine can be used for love and attraction, Sage is a general cleanser to remove negative energy that may be hanging over me. I only had an unscented pillar candle, so that's what I went with. I wanted to use a physical object that could be a reminder of my affirmations, so I used my favourite perfume right now, and a necklace my closest friend gifted me. I used tarot cards that supported my intentions too, being The Lovers (for obvious reasons) and Strength for inner courage and bravery. I used colour correspondences with markers I had available, but I was originally going to use red and yellow. Finally, I used the phrase 'love is mine' as a short reminder of all of my affirmations, and a star because I literally could not think of a short appropriate phrase.

I've unfortunately packed away everything I tend to use for spell work since I'm moving houses next week, so for spellwork, I'm having to make do with what I've got, which is very little. Not even a single crystal. The only reason I have incense is because I didn't tape that box shut yet. But it's no issue, because with witchcraft you use what you have. I generally am a maximalist though so it was a little weird for me.

Check out the other parts of this series!

Part 1 - Intentions. First post

Part 2 - Actions. Last post

Part 3 - Spellwork. Current post

Part 4 - TBA

What do you think about Eternal Sailor Moon? What would you change to improve her design?

It sucks. I'm sorry, I wish I could give the single most famous and influential magical girl ever a more tactful sentence but I can't. It sucks. The layered skirt and it's color scheme sucks, the thin belt ribbon sucks, the excessive pearl adornments on the hair and gloves suck, the lack of proper contrast for the white wings of the eternal moon article sucks, and those goddamn pink bubblegum sleeves especially suck.

Ok, I got that out of my system, I can be respectful now. Buckle up anon, you're getting more than you asked for.

Let's analyze first why Takeuchi-sensei might have made some of these choices. The pink bubblegum sleeves? She probably realized that there was too much white around her torso already and there was a need for a color break. The ugly 3 layering? Takeuchi-sensei likes figure skating, which is why in the manga and Sailor Moon Crystal the skirts are not stiff at all. So she gave Usagi something that would work in a figure skating costume, not realizing that every other element of the torso and gloves is too stiff to pull that off. The thin belts and ribbons? She probably wanted a swallowtail butterfly effect with the wings, but she realized that a big ribbon behind would compete with the wings so the put those thin strands and then realized that the usual belt is too thick for them so she changed that too, again, under the assumption that it would work in the same way for a figure skating costume.

And the excessive accesorization? Well, how else are you supposed to "upgrade" a base as concise and short as the og uniform? You can't even enlarge the skirt all that much without a jenga cascade of new problems, that's why all of the variations within the senshis are so subtle. So Takeuchi-sensei resorted to just add "more" stuff to give the outfit more importance. And she kinda had to, because she had already kneecapped herself with the Moon Crisis outfit:

Now, not all of the choices of this outfit are bad. Changing the skirt to white is subtle but powerful enough, and when the yellow and blue stripes aren't an ugly ombre that doesn't work on plates that stiff they actually look ok. Adding more lines to the collar is also good. However the pearls in the hair compete with the rest of the head accessories. The pale pink of the ribbon comes out of nowhere, and so do the translucent, pointy, three-layered sleeves. Aaaaaaand I hate that the brooch gets repeated on her crotch of all places.

But because Naoko chose to go with this, she set up the expectations a certain way. Essentially this outfit claims that an "evolved" Sailor Moon is a Sailor Moon with more accessories, cohesion be damned, so what else was she going to do when she had to out-perform this?

Which takes us to the second part of your question. If I want to change the Eternal transformation, I need to change the Moon Crisis transformation first so that the contrast between each other becomes a conversation that makes them stand out more. Luckily, DollDivine's Senshi Maker is miraculously still alive, so I don't have to give you an exceptionally shitty illustration of my own.

Let's start with Moon Crisis:

As you can see, my changes from the first transformation are pretty subtle, but I think they work well enough. Without the pearls in the hair the other accessories from head to neck still work as well as ever, only the choker stands out a little bit more and the difference in the hair accessories may be slightly more noticeable. Between those, the longer gloves, and the white boots I figured the amount of surface space for the color white had increased enough to make this version seem more ethereal, so I put one last touch of it on the outer edge of the skirt and made the belt red for further contrast. Keeping the ribbon red as well means it no longer clashes with the rest, and the Crisis Moon Compact can still be the nice touch of pink to tie it all up with the Kaleidomoon Scope (which, btw, should also be a fucking sword instead of a rod with a handle).

Then, finally, we can get to the Eternal Moon redesign:

So! I made 3 different versions distinguished by color scheme. Two work with the usual combination of white + primary colors and the other is white + pink and gold. I made the pink one first because I wanted to match it to the eternal tiare, and I figured that since white is the more important color it didn't matter much if I left out the rest. And while I still like it and I think it would match the show and be a proper evolution, I get why some would find it too disjointed from her original outfits without the red and blue. So I experimented with those colors instead and those are the results. I find them comparatively tackier than the pink and gold, but no more than the original eternal costume, and all in all they work well enough. Maybe I'll do a poll later so you can choose which version you like best.

Now with that out of the way I should go into the shape of the outfit, since I did make some radical changes. Believe me I don't like taking the "sailor" out of Sailor Moon anymore than you do, but in my defense the options of the flash game are limited, so hear my reasoning before you chew me out:

First and foremost, the wings present a problem. Because they are white and spring from above her shoulders they were always going to compete with the bubble sleeves, since both elements fundamentally alter the silhouette. Ergo, I chose to get rid of the sleeves, since the wings are a more powerful symbol. I chose the sweetheart neckline because it was what was available and I think it looks good, but there might have been other options if the game had more variety (which is saying a lot because the thing has a lot of options). Before you ask, no the sleeveless approach Ami has on her costume doesn't look good on her and no way no how am I doing the Shadow Galactica Senshi thing of unattached collars. Fuck that nonsense. I also left the pearls without the hair bun accessories because, again, they competed too much with everything else.

So we go with a white mini dress. I put a ruffled underskirt to give the outfit a bit more volume and looseness without fundamentally unbalancing the silhouette and since it's pale yellow and translucent it gives the idea of a halo of moonlight with the main white skirt. Without the sleeves and collar the mini dress looks more like something a figure skater would wear, so the string-y belts actually work well here. I kept the back ribbon short so that it wouldn't compete with the wings, and I put another one under the wings of the eternal moon article to balance the excess white. This leaves us with the boots. Trust me, she looks better with these than her usual ones. With a strapless and short dress like this either you go short and blocky with the footwear or go long and skin tight. Anything in the middle will look awkward. I will admit however that they need a band of color on top, but that wasn't an option in the game. Or rather there was an option and it didn't look good so I didn't take it.

In any case, I said before that the reason for re-making both outfits is so that the contrast between them makes a design throughline. So there you have it. We have the second evolution, which is a more elongated version of the first one without changing or accessorizing it too much and then our final version goes the opposite way, being more sparse and ethereal, even fairy-like as it fits an ascended, mythical figure. I hope the redesigns satisfy you, but who knows! Maybe when I get better at drawing I can come up with something else. Or not. After all, if you, like me, don't like the original eternal outfit you're always welcome to redesign it yourself. The world is our oyster 💖🌙

So I had been planning on drawing my Mermaid Melody Ocs for a while now (since Aqua came out), but I’ve only just gotten around to kinda finishing them. ;-;

I haven't decided on their group name yet, but these mermaids are descendants of a mermaid clan/cult who believe that their ancient ancestors emigrated to Earth from the moon after the lunar seas dried up or disappeared. They don't live in any of the existing mermaid kingdoms. However, they reside in a complex underwater cave system that has never been discovered by outsiders. Their primary goal is to use the powers of Aqua Regina to restore the oceans on the moon so they can build a new, humanless utopia. So they'll be enemies at first before possibly becoming either allies or antiheroes :3c They use special crystals to transform, which can be found in ring form on their right middle finger. The crystals on their necks are merely a status symbol and/or decoy. Each mermaid represents a body of water from the moon. The Sea of Tranquility (pink) The defacto leader of the group. She's headstrong and energetic, bordering on reckless. Pretty much the opposite of "tranquil" She tends to annoy her classmates with her brash personality, but there are some who are willing to put up with her. She gets in trouble with the teachers a lot, though. The Sea of Serenity (blue) Polite and shy. She doesn't like to fight, but will do what she needs to to accomplish their goal. There's a rumor amongst her clan that she's a descendant or reincarnation of the Princess who led their people to Earth after the moon became uninhabitable. Whether this is true or not is all up to speculation. The Sea of Fecundity (yellow) Mature, yet falls in love easily. When disguised as a human, she's rather popular and makes a lot of friends. Because of this, she's the first to become hesitant about leaving Earth. The Bay of Harmony (green) Hardworking and friendly. She often tries to make jokes to lighten the mood when it gets too serious. She sometimes fails to read the room, however. The Lake of Happiness (purple) Stoic and protective. When not with her friends, she tends to keep to herself. As a result, people tend to be intimidated by her. Those who get to know her finds that she has a fondness for cute things.

Consolation

Killervibe The Flash finale fix-it fic

~.~

It happened like this.

Grief played its games in Caitlin’s brain. She’d felt this way before.

The difference wasn’t the DNA samples lost or the shattered glass on the floor. It was her voice bouncing off walls, echoing into silence. Everyone had passed or moved on, but she was stuck where she started, bruised knees on stained carpet with red wine static shocks licking her skin.

She slept with shards on her couch and the lightning out the window; Barry’s rebuke rattled her bones, reigniting that cruel flame within her no cure had fully doused. She picked up her phone and dialled numbers and in her bitterness she convinced herself he’d only make it worse. The truth was far simpler. Cisco could’ve said anything and it wouldn’t have done any good without his obliterated powers combing through her halved vengeful soul. Caitlin didn’t want to listen.

Picking up the pieces only fueled anger. And when her sobs hiccuped, the loneliness turned to despair. The man she turned her nose against swept up her broken plans, presenting its dustpan like it deserved a bow. Folie à deux never made much sense to her, but then she had a shirtless mad scientist sleeping in her dead sister’s room, pushing theories so nonsensical to the light it struck like crystal and turned to logic gold.

The cryochamber in her living room was once in her gift to Cisco’s quest for a happy life. The Antartican isolation post, quiet and eerie, grew warm with memories made there. That made it not so bad, she reasoned, stepping in, mouth ablaze with the burning substance she downed. This’ll be mine.

It was only when her hand slammed against the frozen glass and panic seized her throat, black in every corner edging further and further that she remembered. The fate she sealed into his arm that day was but a bandaid to a disease. That Cisco wasn’t really happy, and that it cost his soul too.

~.~

An hour passed standing by the purple and yellow buttercream cupcake tower with her phone dead silent in the back pocket of her pressed pink suit. Her fingers itched at her sides, eyes sharp at the sight of Chester and Allegra’s blossomed relationship, arms wrapped around each other and moon-faced with sweet first love. Caitlin’s smile couldn’t quite meet her eyes as hard as she tried.

“Is he not coming?” Barry asked, circling around the table with his new baby in his arms. With permission to check her phone, she let herself be disappointed at her new cell’s blank home screen.

“I left a voice mail.”

Barry looked at her, the restless anxiety she carried just barely concealed. His eyes softened when Nora hiccuped and he shifted. His hold was awkward and nervous but it was gentle and so sincere. Caitlin guided his hand to support Baby Nora’s neck. She stroked the soft infant hair and wondered if she would ever have a day like this for herself. Probably not. She made her peace with that long ago but every now and again a sorrowed wave of could-beens lapped at her shore.

“Thanks, Cait.” He still stared at Caitlin like she was a new invention. Like she wasn’t of their earth or made of their kind and that was so impossibly untrue. She’s never felt more human, no longer unmoored. The Frost that lived in her and beside her is gone but she can breathe with the emptiness, no longer sifted between two spirits Caitlin’s no longer cold. “Go.”

She bit her lip and hope ebbed through her. She glanced away at Iris still celebrating with Cecile whilst dropping hints for Nora from the future to speed back to the year she belongs.

“Are you sure?”

“Yeah,” he said. “Go home.”

If Barry looked at Caitlin like she was a goddess’ token, Cisco’s stricken face told her she was a ghost. She waved half of her fingers at his doorstep with a lopsided grin, already caught with the swell of relief and nostalgia to see every way he has and hasn’t changed. His hair was chopped–fluffy and wonderful, but so jarringly not curled into his shoulders it aged him like wine. But he was Cisco, her Cisco, visibly struggling to reconcile life and death before him and his heart on his sleeve was exactly what drew Caitlin to this man in the first place.

Every word of the speech she had in her head left the moment he stood in front of her. Her apologies and the interrogation for his glaring absence to one of the most important milestones of his best friend’s life that vexed her the longer she realized he wasn’t in an emergency all disappeared.

At a loss, she lifted the diaper disposal he sent to Central City, the pink bow still on top of the box. “Barry and Iris have two of these already.”

“Ah,” Cisco said.

“There wasn’t a gift receipt. I figured I’d save on the shipping. Why didn’t you come to Nora’s party?”

“I’m busy.” He glanced at his rejected gift and his mouth twitched, suppressing a frown already furrowing in his brows.

“With what?” She raised an eyebrow, waiting for an answer, but a snarky retort never came. Her expression flattened at the intensity of Cisco’s stare. Suddenly, Caitlin wondered if she did this all wrong. Casual, she attempted, downplaying her raging feelings to be respectful of Kamilla. Aloof, she decided to not get tangled in any expectations. But Cisco stared and stared and stared until the floor beneath her feet felt more like slippery ice than solid ground.

“You look so much like Caitlin.”

Pins and needles prickled beneath her skin and her heart dropped to her stomach. This wasn’t like ghost-sighting–Caitlin was a ghost.

How didn’t he know she was back? Barry spoke to him and he sent the welcome gift, she sent him voicemails and texts to his phone. But nine months was a long time, a whole being incubated to birth, and enough time for Khione to step out of her lab chamber, opening young eyes to discover life and find purpose. Certainly, enough time for her best friend to change his number.

“Cisco, I am Caitlin.”

His arm dropped numbly from the door edge and Caitlin went inside. She absorbed the eclectic knick knacks of Cisco’s old shoebox apartment scattered throughout this high-scale unit.

She dropped the diaper disposal on a black marble tabletop and then turned around. “Where’s Kamilla?”

“In Miami.” Still pressed against the front door, his eyes said what his pressed lips would not. The who and what and when and how? Always so expressive and bouncing with life, full brown with light and wisdom, they now seared into hers, uncomprehending and vulnerable. The distance in his voice disappeared after the quiet that settled between them. “You’re really Caitlin?”

Even her name on his tongue sounded old. A weight carried behind it like a loaded gun.

So she went with old and bore her weight in return.

“I think about all the memories I cherish the most and you are in every one of them,” she recited, heart open. There were other things she could’ve said. Inside jokes, and medical wounds she treated, but nothing felt more apropos than those lifeboat words of his that once buoyed her soul to surface.

Cisco stood before her, mouthing at his knuckle like he was biting down pain. “You were dead.”

“I’m here,” she said softly, reaching for his arm. The faded t-shirt he wore was soft and familiar. Famous for being worn once too many nights pulling all-nighters at Star Labs.

“I got a call from Carla telling me you were gone.” Cisco’s eyes pierced into hers and once he started he couldn’t stop and Caitlin didn’t want him to.

“And the worst part is I wasn’t there for any of it. I could’ve stopped you before you–I would’ve seen the signs–Don’t look at me like that, we know it’s true. And after…” He laughed like he was still in disbelief, running a hand through his shortened hair mimicking his gesture of stress when there was enough of it to frizz up on the crown of his head like a muppet. “There was no funeral. Nobody mourned. Like it didn’t happen and I couldn’t understand that…Barry and Iris partying like it was New Year's, posting pictures on Instagram while I was drinking to forget what it felt like seeing you die on the operating table wash over me again.”

“I never meant–”

“And when I finally showed up to Central City,” he said sharply, pointing his trembling finger at her, grief curved into every crevice of his face. “there you were again, Khione wearing your face again. But it wasn’t you. None of it was you. You didn’t know me. I was a stranger to my best friend. You didn’t know my name when I was the only one who cared you existed and knew you were worth more than a vote.”

“I know.”

“No, you don’t!” He tore away, and the strain in his voice humbled her. “How could you do that to yourself, just give your entire life away? And Mark was still around after everything he’d done, helping you to erase yourself from existence but they wanted me back for Nora’s party? Frack, no! I can’t!” His exhaustion caught up to him and he sagged onto the royal blue couch, knees knocking and arms folded in, dropping his head to the floor. “Caitlin, I can’t. Dante, Cynthia, hell, even Frost didn’t choose to die.”

Caitlin touched her tears as terrible relief flooded through her. So scared she had been that in the last nine months, he learned to no longer miss her when she was gone, for his life to have changed so much there would be no room for her again. “I made a mistake,” she told him. “This isn’t happening again.”

“Caitlin I’m tired of this game.”

She stepped forward with open palms. And again, deja vu flashed before her eyes.

They were in the speed lab as Barry zoomed laps overhead. Her in turquoise and him in light wash denim already falling into her hug with forgiveness on his lips.

They were at Mercury Labs, a funky Flash emblem shirt thrown over one of his classic tees, a lanyard access key swinging around his fingers, leaning against the lab table with his wind-tousled and soul-sucking dark eyes, tapping at her resolve for her to hang up her white coat with careless ease as she shrugged off loneliness.

They were at a bar, Cisco leaning against another countertop, jaded and beaten down from the long year’s journey, still following her every movement with that unforgettable pickup line flirtatious smile making her forget why she vowed to stay away.

Cisco hesitated only as shortly as he resisted seeing Caitlin Snow at his door, submitting to the urge to fold, holding her close and believing in the impossible again. That she was dead but she was back, and she promised to live her life now. Not Frost’s or Khione’s or her mother’s desires either. She was going to be Caitlin. And Caitlin is here for good.

Cupid's Curse

Chapter Ten

Summary: You unintentionally upset a God.

Warnings: none

Taglist: @gingermous @mt2sssss @dev-angeline @graciexmarvel

Chapter Nine | Chapter Eleven

Khonshu is a possessive God. All Gods are possessive of what belongs to them, an avatar and priests among them. The way Khonshu acts about the essence of a love deity's on him is almost caring though he mouths off to Marc about failing to kill his target. The moon God does not tell the avatar about what he saw on him, the pink handprint on his chest glowing faintly as it failed to lay claim onto Marc. It disappears once Jake renews the vows to be Moon Knight, Khonshu only lets Jake know about the issue; minor compared to Ammit's cult but a problem nonetheless for the deity touched what is not theirs.

Weak, very weak. The moon God preserved the essence into a small crystal as a way to track down the source. His avatar's ruthlessness will see this insult dealt with rather than have Marc or Steven handle it.

Too soft, she would appeal to them by any means– Steven would easily fall for it; he needs them to focus on the cult and other problems.

Khonshu knows who touched his avatar. He has seen her handiwork when few of the Ennead had a meeting about the avatar of Greek God in their territory.

Isn't she dead?

Most of the Ennead were under the impression those in Olympus died during the war with the demi-Gods. The only remaining Greek Gods were those of the underworld and Ares, for death and war can never be truly eliminated. To see the pink glow of the Goddess' power all over Marc, Khonshu will not let such disrespect stand especially from her.

The Gods, all Gods of various places and regions follow a certain code especially when it comes to selecting avatars. The Love Goddess took a woman as her avatar without permission and without offering her respects before trespassing on territory belonging to the Ennead.

Ever wondered how Cleopatra VII Philopator so easily bewitched the most powerful men at that time? Aphrodite claimed her as an avatar.

Khonshu recalls it because the Ennead took it as a slight against them, they demanded compensation, Olympus in their arrogance refused. Not long after, Olympus falls by the hands of demi-God children.

None of the Ennead grieved when the Olympians died.

Khonshu is however confused as to why she would help those who follow Ammit. The possibility of it being coincidence is not something he entertains, especially when Aphrodite does things on purpose.

Make Cleopatra an avatar? Start a war. Or 'minor mortal' strife as those fools saw it.

He will not allow such a Goddess to roam freely nor her avatar given she will need an extension of herself in order to interact with this realm.

Jake Lockley will be the one to deliver the avatar to him first.

How many have traveled under the gaze of the moon? When you gaze up at the moon you are reminded of Artemis the Goddess of the Hunt. Her keen eyes watching over maidens and hunters, striking down those with ill intentions or poachers. A rugged goddess who would shy away from Aphrodite's attempts to pair her up with nymphs. Offerings of finely crafted nectar left her flustered, offerings of animal hides or blood granted her hunters a boon, and the vow to remain pure granted her maiden passage to her home to be free.

Would she still enjoy the hunt in this sad age? How many maidens have died under the moonlight with no one to answer their cries.

Sometimes you stare up at the bright full moon, cold and distant. How many have stared up at the moon praying to Artemis, praying for protection or a successful hunt. Sure, probably doesn't happen in this age but back then. What did her followers do when she could no longer give them her blessings or protection. You liked the Goddess, she was down to earth and cute when she became shy about offerings. Aphrodite often tried to pair her up with a nymph or mortal maiden from time to time. Her companion is the moon, nothing else; she would say.

Staring out the window from your flat, your window letting in the fall breeze. Your hand reaching out basking in the moonlight. The beautiful warmth-less light of the moon, cold and distant.

"Keen-eyed huntress Artemis, what would you be like right now? Would you care about the people of this age or ignore them?" You know your question goes on deaf ears, it's just to comfort yourself when Aphrodite's heart gets lonely. Her kin is all but gone, as are yours.

There are times you hear whispers, faint as the rustling of leaves in the distance, you hear them clearly when in front of the mural in the museum. Few, so very few, pray to Aphrodite these days. To the Gods who once lived in Olympus…

They are seen as mythology, stories to give lectures about and write meaningless essays on. The Gods are spoken about but all people care about are the heroes… Heroes. You like them too but, well…

When you see the news, read the newspaper headlines at the store, or see your social media; you see pictures and articles about a vigilante named Moon Knight.

Would Artemis like him? She never had avatars, only priestesses. Would she approve of his ruthlessness, killing the wicked and saving the innocent? The news paints him as a hero and the law paints him as murderer. You only see the deeds of this hero and are cautious.

Hercules was once praised and later would kill the Gods.

"Artemis, may he bring honor and blood upon your symbol. Guide his hand to strike true." Though the prayer falls upon deaf ears, it comforts you to say at least.

You need a distraction.

Probably not a good idea when there are reports of kidnapping and people found dead the next day. You need to go outside and wander for a bit, to roam aimlessly. So much as happened these past few weeks.

You woke up in bed, not your own, with two people you don't know.

Went to a wedding that nearly was ruined because the bride's brother was drunk and being a fool.

The woman who Lockley came to see at the club was one of those found mysteriously dead.

The only brightside is how well your relationship is with Steven and Marc has been frequently talking to you (though he can tell he doesn't trust you).

You leave your flat, dressed in dark clothing, traveling by the light of the moon. The chill of the night, the moon far away shining above as you walk the streets of London.

Jake is a different story. You are not aware of the plan he has for you tomorrow evening, unaware about how the stalker will become the stalked.
