#ritual language

[ualthum]

I am currently hard at work on a new list of the Sul'voth runes to have as a permanent resource here, with a cleaner and more accessible aesthetic, as well as a few adjustments.

This set will be the final iteration, which will also allow me to focus on the next steps, namely the actual Lexicon and the upcoming Patreon page. Not to mention my return to creating videos, so stay tuned.

Cheers folks, and good tidings.

DP x DC: The Most Dangerous Card Game

Ok so Danny has essentially claimed earth as his. And he is fully aware that there are constant threats to the planet. Now he can’t stop a threat that originates on earth (that’s something he’ll leave to the Justice league) but he can do something about outside threats. Doing some research on ancient spells, rituals, and artifacts, he cast a world wide barrier on the planet to protect it from hostile threats so they cannot enter. This will prevent another Pariah Dark incident. However, barriers like this come at a price. You see, there are two ways to make a barrier. Either make one powered up by your own energy and power (which would be constantly draining) or set up a barrier with rules. The way magic works is that nothing can be absolutely indestructible. It must have a weakness. The most powerful barriers weren’t the ones reinforced with layer after layer of protective charms and buffed up with power. Those could eventually be destroyed either by being overpowered, wearing them down, or by cutting off the original power source. No, the most powerful barriers were the ones with a deliberate weakness. A barrier indestructible except for one spot. A cage that can only be opened from the outside. Or that can only be passed with a key or by solving a riddle. So Danny chooses this type of barrier and does the necessary ritual and pours in enough power to make it. And he adds his condition for anyone to enter. 

Now the Justice league? Find out about the barrier when Trigon attempts to attack, they were preparing after he threatened what he would do once he got to earth. How he would destroy them. The Justice league tried to take the fight to him first but were utterly destroyed, so they retreated home to tend to their injuries, and fortify earth for one. Last. Stand. Only when Trigon makes his big entrance…he’s stopped.

The Justice league watch in awe as this thin see-through barrier with beautiful green swirls and speckled white lights like stars apears blocking Trigon and his army’s advance. The barrier looks so thin and fragile yet no matter how hard the warlord hits, none of his attacks can get through and neither can he damage said barrier. That’s when Constantine and Zatanna recognizes what this barrier is. Something only a powerful entity could create. For a moment, the league is filled with hope that Trigon can’t get through yet Constantine also explains that it’s not impenetrable. And clearly Trigon knows this too for he calls out a challenge. 

And that’s when, in a flash of light, a tiny glowing teenager appears. He looked absolutly minuscule compared to Trigon and yet practically glowed with power (this isn’t a King Danny AU though).

And that is when the conditions for passing the barrier are revealed. And the Justice realize that the only thing stopping Trigon and his army from decimating earth. The only way he can get through….is by beating this glowing teenager in a card game. 

Not just any card game though. The most convoluted game Sam, Danny, and Tucker invented themselves. It’s like the infinite realms version of magic the gathering, combined with Pokémon, and chess. And Danny is the master. So sit down Trigon and let’s play.

(The most intense card game of the Justice league’s life).

After Danny wins, this happens a few more times with outer word beings and possibly even demons attempting to invade earth, yet none have been able to beat the mysterious teenager in a card game. Constantine might even take a crack at it and try to figure out how to play. He’s really bad though. Every time this happens, the Justice league worry that this might be the time the teenager looses. Yet every time, he wins (even if only barely). 

Meanwhile, Danny, Sam, and Tucker have gotten addicted to the game and play it almost daily. Some teachers might seem them playing the game are are like ‘awww how cute’ not realizing this game is literally saving the world. Jazz is just happy they aren’t spending as much time on their screens playing Doomed.

can i just say, it still makes me feel a little crazy how astarion, come act 3, still can’t quite put a name to his relationship with his partner, but he WILL tell them he wants to keep them both safe.

he won’t say i love you just yet but he will say forever, for good.

[natesmack]

I know we talked to you a lot at the beginning of the year about playing with Nate..you obviously had such great chemistry with him, knew where he was going to be back in the day. Seems like you guys are starting to find that a little bit again (...) just how is that coming with him? [x]

I once stumbled upon some obscure piece of canon that described an ancient Vulcan ritual of standing naked in the rain to absorb rainwater.

I immediately pictured Jim accidentally finding Spock performing one of those... "rituals" while on a shore leave.

And, of course, I couldn't keep myself from drawing it!

i absolutely understand where laudna was coming from with her saying she wanted seedling to be the end of her should delilah come back, but it was so! tragic! watching the weight of that settle onto liam-as-orym during that conversation. hearing your friend say that you are what their subconscious conjures up when they consider a fitting end is awful! no one wants to be a specter of doom like that, least of all orym!

Honestly, a compilation of the Fontaine women telling me I'm their dessert would just make me blush and giggles, because, well, the joke is funny, the flirt attempt work because I have no experience on the flirting domain.

And then, I understand they are serious-

Honorable mention for Furina who read the line in a novel and tried it. We both ended blushing and giggling. Sure she hides her shame behind the fact it was a joke. It wasn't.

Fontaine women and their love language is just a different breed 😅

You expect them to be super romantic with rose petals and love poems but…they’d probably say something like “if you were a tea, you’d be a cutea.”

…Sounds like something Clorinde or Lynette would say since they both like tea 😭😭 Fontaine women are so silly, I love them all so much <33

Armand said that French was his forth and worse language. So I'm assuming he spoke Hindi, Italian and English, too.

Do you think that he still remembers Hindi, at least as well as he used to? It just seems to me that Armand couldn't even keep his own language. Marius "educated him" with Italian & English (I mean the dude whitewashed him in his paintings, I doubt he let him have any connections with his country), then he had to learn French and speak only French (&latin maybe for rituals?), then they just had to speak English for "inclusivity" and modernising the Coven.

So does he remember his native tongue? does he want to remember?
