On the subject of the recent ART THEFT that occurred with my good friend, @savenkey, it has come to my attention that @apprentice-chris is actively changing their username and attempting to find one that sticks.

Recently, if you go to rowdyravenrattles.tumblr.com, you'll see that she has taken MY OLD TUMBLR HANDLE. Let me be 100% clear, I did not give permission for this, and I have no affiliation with this thief, nor do I approve AT ALL of what she is doing.

My guess is that she is trying to ride the coattails of my old handle because there are past pieces and projects Sav and I collaborated on together that still have that name to tag me, and she will use it as her "permission" to use it. Rest assured, if you click on it, it will come to MY blog, not hers.

The blog is not public yet, it is still password protected, but I wanted to put this disclaimer forward, and also use it as a warning. If you have been in the fandom for a while (like I have) and have changed your handle, and if your old handle suddenly pops up again, it is most likely this ART THIEF.

About Dark Faeries;

Dark Faeries are mysterious creatures that hide during the day as they do not want to be seen by their counter parts. They’re illusive and sneaky, mostly using their magic for pranks, but in some cases they tend to their beloved Moonflowers, the only flower to show their faces during the night.

When there’s a full moon walk with caution in the streets, because if they’re not on your side they’ll surely trick you for your trinkets. They adore shiny things, just like their day lit counterparts.

Leo however is a special case, his mother conceived him when a Dark Faerie had fallen in love with her and used his father’s image to seduce her, later his non-biological father figured out what he was as no magic ran in the family, and murdered his mother, which in turn caused Leo to drown his father in the nearby river. Asra found him too late and used a sealing spell to hide his memories after listening to what had happened.

Kiss Week Day 3: Surprise Kiss

@rowdyravenrattles: Here you are!! A kiss for Ollie! 😊

[Made up my own prompt for this one, though I guess in a way it could work for heated kiss/the days prompt]

_______

He doesn’t plan it. But then, he rarely plans anything, so that isn’t surprising. He’d just bent down to pick up a lovely little gold bangle - tragically abandoned on the ground and in desperate want of an owner - when a shadow fell over him. When he’d gone to stand up, he found her lips at the corner of his mouth and, well, that’s not anything to complain about. She has nice lips. Rather pleasing to look at, too, with her strawberry blonde hair, but it’s her hand on the other half of that bangle that’s a problem.

She pulls back a little, startled - an accident, then. Puck grins up at her. “Come on, we can do better than that,” he says, leaning in and biting at her lower lip. Her mouth opens a little in surprise, and Puck takes the opportunity to deepen the impromptu kiss. It’s a great distraction: the girl blushing and seeming completely unaware as Puck turns his hand beneath her palm and catches the bangle between his fingers.

He’s on his feet the next instant, teeth flashing as he grins. “Let’s do this again sometime, yeah? Maybe soon- unless this isn’t important to you?” With a little flourish he produces the bracelet, gold and gleaming in the afternoon sun. He winks and slides it on his wrist where it jangles merrily against the rest of his collection, and then he’s off, laughing and loving the thrill of the chase.

How about 7 for the apprentice ask? :> Your apprentice seems lovely, by the way! -rowdyravenrattles

Awe,thank you,you're so kindAlso sorry for the late answear,I was quite busy in the past few days ;-;As for her backstory,you may find it strange ,senseless and complicated so I'll apologise from nowOh well,her mother was a witch and she didn't want to have her in the first place,but ended up giving birth to her an wanting her dead after.And she tried to kill her ,but her father stoped her before any unchangeable harm was caused.She has a scar on her chest to this day .Moving on to her childhood,it's rly stupid but,I have this ideea of her growing up with Pasha and Ilya just like Asra grew up with Muriel.She had a really strong pasion for botanics and since she was little.She was infulenced by her dad a lot,since he was a doctor and there were plenty of books about human nature and plants in the house.At one point though,she has to leave the place and suffers a memory loss and that's all I can say 100% surely for now,cause I'll have to reasearch more things about the game to make the story relatively accurate.I'll write more for it once I put something good enough togheter.Thank you for the ask ! :)

New name, same blog

This is formerly rowdyravenrattles, updating everyone on the blog name change. No one panic, my content isn't changing! I just wanted an updated name, since I made this blog before the Arcana was very far into the story and before I had my own apprentice, and I wanted a new name to reflect those changes.

[dreamyarcana]

considering i’ve never edited anything in my life, i’d say this isn’t half bad, but i’m probably prouder than i should be

do you guys know the scene where mc walks in and everyone’s like ‘welcome. welcome. welcome.?’ awhile ago, i got a bunch of the welcomes files so i took that and did this; i’m not editing book 3 so this isn’t official, but i thought it was really funny so here

featuring respectively:

@rowdyravenrattles @cherrypieri @fugitivedoctor and @polyasrian
