Hi (*^▽^)/★*☆♪ I heard that you're like a MASSIVE Morgan fan and I don't listen to the morgan audios but I've heard he's a super interesting character but bc that's my brothers name I don't listen to them

I've read the wiki but I still don't have the bigger picture, i would like to hear from a morgan fan themselves if that's okay !!

BANGS MY HEAD ON THE DESK

Yes yes hi! Hello! I am the morgan fan ever! Ive watched his videos on repeat as sleep aid and I think that should be studied—anyways. So. MORGAN.

Morgan is a seer obscura who works (could just be worked? i mean we really dont know the details of morgans job, but, it really could just be that he spoke with his listener, seer obscura, because he is the only OTHER seer obscura in the world) with/for/through The Department (D.U.M.P.)

He comes off as a pretty calm soul, someone who likes to dive into the bits in pieces of things. A big word guy, if you catch my drift…but he also comes off as a tad bit nervous or even intimidated in his first audio, the one where he and his listener meet as theyre seeking counsel for their issues in regards to their empowerment and magic, since he is noticeably taking time to curate his sentences while also clarifying that he doesnt have to be the seer to help his listener if they dont want it. Which cpuld insist that his LISTENER also seemed uneasy or even rude depending on your interpretation of it

And them theres a whole lotta seer lore that ill sum up under the cut.

Later on, it’s confirmed that morgans listener, Seer Obscura, is struggling with their sight AND that they somehow were affected by the inversion (Or, maybe just confused as to how they didnt see it at all…but again, they ARE a seer obscura…and the inversion obscured allllllll sorta seer sight…aka, the inversion was “radio static”, for a lack of a better term, for all seers. or just. not there, if that helps.)

The second audio takes place a few months to a year later…and its the listener seeming advice for their magic. all of the lore dump from the three audios will be under the cut, so, i wont summarize this audio too much. Just let it be known that

Seer obscura was born with their seer magic and abilities yet choose to hide it

Hid as an illusory

Only came out of ‘hiding’ for help

Throughout all three audios, via my interpretation, feels guilty and or awkward for reaching out for help/to morgan

Sooo round comes the third audio. We got seer obscura panicking and dialing up morgans number in the middle of the night/very early morning. (Hence the “hes half asleep” in the video title)

despite it being late…despite morgan being tired as FUCK.

He assures seer obscura that they are no burden to him and that, if they need someone, morgan is walking to help. So yk, seer obscura is obv a lil panicky and is like “Okay, do I meet uou at the office—?”

and then morgan is like giggling and goes “I dont live at the office*” which is silly to me and funny. so anyways, morgan goes “ten miles north of the office” (yes i remembered this)

ok and then seer obscura pulls up, morgan apologizes for the mess.!and for the majority of the audio morgan goes on to explain exactly how things differ between seers and seer obscuras + how he sees things in a dofferent light from the rest ofbthe seer population

and then at the end of the audio, they walk off to morgans balcony and morgan goes on this lil rant about how he doesn’t know what seer obscura wants and he cant know unless he figures that out for himself with them

and then they gain that little ‘friendship badge’ with the whole “I want to get to know you” trope. bc that was along the lines of morgans words. so yeah

oh yeah and then it ends with morgan and seer walking back into the apartment wirh morgan offering to “make breakfast” although he jokes that the best he can do for them is a bowl of cereal.

and then heres lore below

Random Basic Seer Facts:

- Seers can be latents or human born

- Sight can not be learned. Either you are born with the ability to see the future or you can’t at all. Not even demons can use this magic

- The first thing a seer sees is their death

- Foresight is inseparable from the magical core, only way to get rid of the foresight is to cut threads of power (removing all magic)

- can use any sort of magic

- All Seers are sunbound

- Seers can in fact not be turned into vampires

- They can *easily hide* their cores cleverly from any other race

- The magical race (Yk, seers) are very, very rare.

- Specific things like stress or caffeine and trigger their sight powers. Really, depends on who you are. It varies.

- Choose not to use your sight and your powers will build up in pressure, involuntarily releasing as sight magic. Like a valve. You can open it, or it can burst itself

- Involuntary sight is pretty disorienting, lowkey feels like derealization if I were to have a say in it

- Can control the length, depth, and pretty much anything else out of sight. It’s at the control of the holder as long as they *know* how to control it

Important must knows

- Although Seers can “*see the future*”, they ACTUALLY only see the variables in the situation. It’s like mathematics and quantity. Probability machines. NOT SET IN STONE. Nothing is confirmed because factors within the sight can be *obscured*. Ex; people, places, situations, etc

- E’laetum had been looking to find a solution to vampires and boom here we have seers (I’ll. Figure out how to write this soon)

- The last Seer that the department had record of was *waaay* back in the early 1800s. Morgan and his listener are the only two recorded Seer Obscura in their century that have come forward about it. It’s likely that they are the definite only two.

- The inversion shifted the timeline (within dahlia, I’m imagining) in all. Everything seen about the future that was sought after before the events of the inversion became invalid because of the part that death played in the situation. (And death is…obscured oddly. I think it has something to do with the river but I may be reading this wrong. I’ll figure it out)

- Are told to be “Sovereign Touched”

- “Exist apart from the rest of humanity”

- “The children of E’laetum”

- Were created to “heal” what had been broken (aka settle and or smooth the vampire fiasco)

- Cores contain tiny pieces of sovereignty, this explains why only seers can use sight. No human or demon can posses these because they don’t have those bits and parts like seers do

- As soon as E’Laetun had attempted to heal the vampires, seers were formed. It had taken more magic from E’Leatum than he would’ve liked. Theses were the *first* seers.

Other

- Morgan’s listener (The one which fandom has just deemed “Seer Obscura”) hid their core and covered it with an aura of an illusory (another empowerment.) This means that nobody (**besides** other seers) knew they were a seer. All seers tend to be talented at this.

Obscura and Obscured

- It’s hard to see any (if any at all, which is said to be impossible) future that an Obscura is in. Their presence obscures and deforms the way seers use their powers. The closer you come to the obscured factor within your vision, the more static it becomes. It doesn’t completely block out, yet deranges it.

- There are places/actions that are obscured as well, which means not only people. For example: death & Aria itself.

- Any race of empowered beings can be Obscuras, actually. The title of obscura only means that your presence interferes with the timeline/sight. For all we know, someone like David could be an Obscura.

- Erik confirmed that d(a)emons themselves are not always obscured, only Aria.

The Soldality:

What is The Soldality? A group of seers who live publicly, curating a timeline to see the future—probably to prevent events like the inversion from happening. Theyre protected by the department. AND all watch the time streams and predict what the future would be. Most of them believe that there is a known outcome.

- The “known outcome” does not take account of those places and people who are obscured, making this group invalid in plenty of ways.

- Morgan himself is apart of the Soldality yet seems to have his doubts about it.

- A wide marsh of the Soldality actually don’t like Morgan/the whole idea of seer obscuras bc they dont have to *see his own death / future*

A Steamy Shower With Your Tsundere Alpha Werewolf Boyfriend you will always be famous

First and foremost because of this line: "There's not much in this world I'd get on my knees for. But for you? Always."

Secondly, how soft and happy David sounds talks about Darlin, like their return to the pack has centered him even more in his role as Alpha

"And we should have everybody by this evening, in time for the Solstice party itself."

"They texted me back this morning. Yeah. They are bringing Sam. [laugh] I don’t owe you shit. I never took that bet. Because I agreed with you from the start. I figured they’d ask him, too. And after the way he talked about them in our little chat, I couldn’t imagine him saying no, either."

So I was thinking about how the Joker is canonically more of a concept rather than one specific person. So when it comes to alternate universes, 80% of the time Batman will always be Bruce Wayne but Joker could literally be anyone.

In this essay, I will be proposing the idea of Jeff the Killer being a Joker varient-

[scoringeffects]

do you have/know of any kind of natejo primer post? i am starting to be very very intrigued by them…

there is this very delightful primer that covers natejo during their halifax mooseheads era (juniors, age 16-18 [2011-13]) and their team north america era (made up team for the 2016 world cup of hockey) i would so so super recommend clicking on every link there, and as for the 2023-24 season:

nate reached out to jo about playing with him in colorado during the summer because he knew his contract with montreal was coming to an end and jo signed for league mininum to play with him

jo talking about nate in his 'get to know me' interview

jo knows where nate is knows what he likes can almost feel him on the ice. normal things to say about your center.

they walk their dogs together!

bench yappers. ignore that nate probably doesnt have a great deal of concepts about personal space.

both nate and jo achieved career highs in points playing on the same line. nate by 29 freaking points. jo also had a career high in time on ice per game !

nate has the most assists on jo's goals, and jo loves to pass to nate.

one of jo's very best games as an av where he scored the OT winner and partially helped nate extend his second to gretzky home point streak. not inherently natejo but the nhl put the full game up on youtube and its a fun background watch because the announcers r so very nice about jo yayayyyyy. okay hold on it definately used to be up on youtube as a 'fan favourite' voted in game and now its either unlisted, restricted, or entirely gone. fascinating. what a wonderful league. anway.

here's nate saying that jo is his favourite teammate ever. since 2010 nate has played with at least 280 people. he said this during his hart (league mvp as voted by the writers' association) and ted lindsay (league mvp as voted by the players' association) award interview. also couldnt find it for the life of me but im certain there's an interview where jo says he wants to play with nate for ten more years. EDIT: here is the article, found by the lovely @mi-kko-ran-tanen it is also a bit of a natejo primer very very good would encourage a read

24-25 season:

jo resigned for another year ! turned down money again for 'loyalty and happiness'

they actually might have seperation anxiety

jo is going to be point per game this season i believe it with my whole heart.

r-ing into the rpf:

nate's start in the league was . well. the avs were very very bad for quite sometime, bottomed out nearly historically after the 2016-17 season (season directly after team north america and the world cup of hockey) and i think this is around the time nate locked in so to speak. this spittin chiclets interview from 2019 is pretty good (dont let the spittin chiclets part put u off 🙏), he talks about worrying about being a bust, about his expectations and also just the way he talks back then and what he's achieved in the five years since oh nate u have no idea whats in store for u ☹️

jo's time in the nhl has been tumultuous to say the least.

mid way into the 2022-23 season he held the record for most points without a goal by a forward in a single season. (he ended the season 2-27-29, scoring a goal in his 46th game) teammate and close friend josh anderson was quite sweet about it all

there's a lot of talk about jo being a draft bust, there's also a lot of talk about his development being screwed from the get go (sent back down to juniors for the 2013-14 season despite having won the calder cup the uear prior because if a player is juniors eligable they cant play in the minors or smth like that), he was also injured a lot, the habs under bergevin not being great at player development, and in tampa and montreal there was an expectation on him to be an offensive powerhouse that he just wasnt unfortunately due to injuries and mental health issues. they also tried to develop him at center.

it is absolutely not the best metric to measure 'draft bustness', but sorting the 2013 draft by games played and total points, jo is top 20 for games played and top 15 for total points

an espn redraft from march of 2023 has him still in the first round but much lower

absolutely crushing thank u greg

jo was actually injured so much holy shit bro has never played a full season. the closest he got was 81 games in 18-19

apparently there was some buzz about a drouin-iginla trade in 2015 between tampa and colorado??? what couldve been damn

ALL THIS TO SAY nate believed in him and jo believed in nate and it paid off so freaking hard last season and jo has his love for hockey back and nate had his career best personal season next to him and they are it if u think about it

f-ing into the rpf:

i know you didnt ask but i would be remiss if i didnt share these, they're currently what i would say is quintessential natejo reading

I don't believe in soulmates (but nobody saw me like you) by shade_of_blue (@shade-of-drou) (M, 6k) soulmates au where jo realises dewey has soulbond sickness

those who favor fire by bruinss (@droumack) (M, 14k) absoloutely crushing magical realism fic where jo's heart freezes the more he falls in love. it is actually unfathomable how much nate loves him, and how much nate loves jo

got my finger on her trigger by creamsicle_melt (@creamsiclemelt) (E, 6k) lesbian natejo nate fucks jo within an inch of her life absolutely fantastic peice of literature.

you'd have to stop the world by bladeless_knife (@mi-kko-ran-tanen) (M, 12k) nate is stuck in a timeloop watching jo get hurt no matter what he does. genuinely incredible theyre so so very much natejo here and also very nate and very jo

Gather by plethoriall (@plethoriall) (E, 4k) once again, another fic where theyre so very natejo. like that interview linked in the very first bullet point? those guys ("yeah we're dumb and dumber") def did this. a delightful study in what if our codependant homoerotic teenage friendship turned into a regular healthy adult friendship except every time you touch me i remember how we used to jerk eachother off which (thankfully for everyone inolved) turned into Yay sex and also i love you. instead of turning toxic.

all very very very good writers i would highly highly suggest checking out their other works as well + commenting and kudoing

[simplynims]

Would people be interested in watching me do fun lil reviews on YouTube reccomending audio roleplayers to people? I've been wanting to do a commentary video for fun and it's a good excuse for me to yap about both well known and smaller creators I listen to frequently

[brainrotcharacters]

Porter's physical touch tendencies where he touches noses with Treasure in the middle of kissing them/yapping onto their lips

[int3rtwiningh3artstrings]

my hc sweetheart probably never felt seen as a child and thought their powers were a sign from the universe that they weren't worth being seen and when they joined the department they felt alone as one of the only stealths in their job and then after they met Milo and knew he really saw them they went out and encouraged other stealths do go into positions they'd never been in and now they have a community and friends that support them and they finally feel seen and maybe I'm projecting a bit shush

[samfucker]

listening to ba’s while scrolling thru pinterest is so fun

[indigo-greer-collins]

the first time darlin felt safe enough to just sob in sam's arms must've split that cowboy in half

[grilledcheezy92]

🙄 oh boy potentially hot take

"Treasure shouldn't be pushing his boundaries" Feels like when people say "Angel shouldn't have forced/tricked David into shifting" (I don't have the energy to fully unpack why I disagree. Go find my rewatch posts that explains some of it)

"This is another Geordi/Cutie 😭" No tf it's not. First of all, the two situations are hardly comparable outside of empowered/unempowered relationship. Secondly, Cutie let their untreated trauma and anxiety cross a clearly stated, serious boundary and they got consequences for it.

Please learn the difference between breaking down a protective barrier someone is keeping in an effort to not be hurt (especially early in a relationship) and an actual boundary.

Treasure pushed, Porter snapped, they both probably regret the whole conversation but the idea that either of them has to be "in the wrong" for an argument to occur is kind of crazy isn't it?

[porters-fangs]

i got some speaker headcanons. so listen up.

tw: my opinion ❤️

also probably not canon-compliant but see if i care

> morgan is almost entirely blind

he was born with cataracts, and the world has always looked to him like a watercolour painting that never dries, colour and light bleeding across his vision

seer obscura never commented when he squinted through the lenses of his glasses as they sat opposite him, or when he fumbled for the handle of his mug.

he can see. just… in a different way.

pry the blind seer trope from my cold dead hands i dare you

> sam has chronic migraines

he’s struggled with them ever since he was a kid. the throbbing pain behind his temples that never ceases, the burn of light creeping under his lashes and searing his nerves, the nausea that rises in his throat and the ringing in his ears whenever he moves his head too far in one direction.

he’s tried everything there is.

painkillers. herbal tea. lying in a dark room for hours on end. eventually, he has to grin and bear it when the responsibilities of life come knocking once more.

it’s only when darlin shifts and and curls up on his chest, every breath rumbling through his bones that he finds himself relaxing. the pain dulls. the sickness fades. he even falls asleep for the first time in days.

a furry tail thumps happily against the bedsheets.

> asher uses he/they pronouns

he started exploring his identity in college, when he kissed a guy for the first time and really didn’t hate it.

they discovered the label “demi boy” in the middle of a lecture when he was really supposed to be taking notes. it stuck.

they haven’t told anyone other than david and babe. not because he’s ashamed - he really doesn’t mind just “he” - but it’s something that feels personal to him.

a discovery that he keeps as his own.

> asher has six toes on one foot

yeah i can’t elaborate on this one

he just does

wiggles them in babe’s face sometimes

> milo used to have anxiety attacks - still does

they were bad when he was a kid. he used to collapse in his bedroom, slamming the door behind him as his throat closed up and his lungs failed every breath.

he had a childhood cat who would only ever come home through milo’s window and never explored the rest of his house. really, his parents never knew they did have a cat. it was his.

he’d keep pieces of chicken from his school lunch to leave on the windowsill. when he was having an anxiety attack, the cat ignored the food. it leaped down, prowling over to him and nudging his leg insistently, purring like an engine.

aggro does the same thing.

> milo still gets growing pains

and it pisses him off

because where is the GROWING

no growth. just an ache deep in his bones.

> vincent had epilepsy

he was never supposed to be at the theme park that night. they were a catalyst for disaster, the flashing lights and stress of the crowds the perfect breeding ground for his condition.

his friend had begged him to come - and then bailed last minute. something about a project deadline? whatever. vincent was going. he’d already convinced himself.

he’d taken his medication. avoided alcohol all night. he was very proud of himself as he stood in the queue for the “surge” rollercoaster. although, he felt himself getting fidgety at the prospect of getting on it.

the stranger next to him seemed just as nervous. so he grabbed their hand. it grounded them both.

> david lost his ring finger

he had an accident as a kid. it was stupid, really. he’d wanted to help his dad build the treehouse in their backyard. begged him to please let him cut the wood - he was strong too, wasn’t he?

reluctantly, gabe handed over the powersaw, holding his son’s hands in his own to keep them steady.

a noise from beyond the backyard. too close to the wards gabe had put up to protect what was left of his family, he glanced up for a second, loosening his hold. david was giddy with excitement.

very poor hand placement led to the crunch of bone and a very vulgar exclamation from his dad.

they had to take it at the hospital. david had never minded. he thought it looked badass - it was proof of the trust his dad had in him, the trust he’d fight to earn again. after all - he was strong too, wasn’t he?

around the time of his and angel’s wedding, he grew to hate the loss of his finger. what kind of husband would he be? unable to properly wear his ring, to let his mate stake their claim over him. they kissed his chest, and told him to go back to sleep.

david got a tattoo the next week. a wedding ring, on the knuckle of his missing finger.

and the real ring would always be threaded on the leather cord around his neck, pressed close to his heart.

> damien has a hip implant

he developed osteoarthritis in his hip at a very young age. even walking around became a chore.

his mother picked up on it very quickly, signing him up for the implant as soon as it was offered.

damien was terrified. he hated the idea of surgery - being unconscious while someone with a scalpel looms over you.

he couldn’t deny that it helped, though. finally, he didn’t wake up in pain, and he could stretch without being in agony.

when he told huxley, he made it part of his routine to drop to his knees and press loving kisses to the scar there while damien blushes and expresses his embarrassment.

he loves it really.

> gavin has a chipped horn

he coalesced with it.

now, gavin knows he looks good.

he’s never felt the need to change his appearance for people - if someone desires him, he’s all theirs

however, that small imperfection always draws his eyes when he admires himself in the mirror, and he feels his mouth tilt down, clicking his tongue

it’s just so… obvious

freelancer spent months working on their contra earth elemental abilities, struggling over each and every detail

until one day, they presented him with a small, gold cap, encrusted with little jewels, about the size of a thimble to sit atop his broken horn

they didn’t leave their room allll dayyyyy

> avior is nonbinary

yeah.

he uses he/they pronouns but the concept of gender has always baffled him.

boy? girl? uhhh… no thank you

demons have no need for such trivial things as “gender”

hilarious

also he has knee length hair and it’s long and silky and never tangles ever??

> guy has a prosthetic hand

it’s his right hand and he lost it a few years ago in a motorcycle accident.

lucky for him, he’s always been left handed.

still, he’s absolutely insufferable with the puns

“hey, honey… need a hand? ;)”

“oh my god guy.”

> camelopardalis has tremors

he’s just shaky. he doesn’t know where they come from.

maybe the memories he relieves from his clients and is haunted by every night .

maybe the coffee he can’t stop drinking.

maybe the fact that he’s somehow always cold, even in the height of summer.

they’ve never stopped him.

> porter used to have a hearing aid

he was only impaired in one ear, but still found comfort in turning his aid all the way down just to tune out the noise from one half of the world.

after he was turned, he no longer needed it, and there was a strange sense of melancholy in shutting the aid away in his bedside drawer.

his ear still rings sometimes.

> vega’s tail was clipped

when he was sent to prison, the tip of his tail was severed. not a catastrophic injury - just enough to make a statement.

i was caught.

he hides it under a cloak when he can, only sparing the blunt end a distasteful glance when he wraps it around the waist of his warden.
