Once again thinking about the fact that "Vecna" doesn't actually know the lore behind Vecna. We also know, though, that he sees just about everything. So he must know that they call him Vecna.

So what, is the guy just sitting there in his childhood home like:

"Vec-na? Is that...me? Are they referring to me? What is a 'Vecna'? Is that a new slur? You know, back in my day they would just call me a faggot."

It's even funnier if you consider that he might have a surface knowledge of DnD by osmosis, and that he might know that "Vecna" is a character from the game.

So then he'd just be sitting there like:

"They...named me after a role-play game villain? Am I a joke to them? They realize this isn't a game, right? This is reality. Have they lost their collective grip on reality? Do they actually think I'm this character come to life?"

Dustin: Vecna is the Mindflayer's 5-Star General Vecna in the UD Cerebro: Child. I am begging you to take your antipsychotics.

Nah man what the heck?!

Drew something with the gemini twins for once. Have this one doodle as well because somebody was definitely there holding the camera.

It's a very silly sketch ^_^

If anyone needed it, here's the original twitter post I used as reference for the first drawing!

Fluent Freshman - Part 03

PREVIOUS

In the Fluent Freshman AU I could see a moment where Andrew kind of misses having Renee around. She was a nice quiet support for him during her time at Palmetto and now she’s graduated. Bee suggests that Andrew try and make a new friend, he can try with someone on the team even.

Andrew, initially, thinks it’s a stupid idea. He real hates pretty much every sophomore (Jack’s group) and pretty much all of the new freshmen irritate him since they’re always trying to steal Neil’s attention with all their fucking problems. The only freshman that he has no opinion on (and therefore is miles and miles ahead of everyone else) is the quiet one that he glowered at pretty early on for staring at Neil’s scars.

Except now, with the knowledge that the kid is a foreign language major, he was probably just trying to figure out what language him and Neil were talking in since the kid isn’t phased at all when Neil absentmindedly used his shirt to wipe away sweat on his face. Everyone else had LOOKED but the kid had just continued on as if it were nothing.

Nicky likes him a fair bit and has assured both Andrew and Neil, after the fourth time the kid power walked away from them, that he’s not homophobic just due to circumstances public displays of affection make him deeply uncomfortable. The Foxes have pasts and if the kid isn’t going to make it their problem then Andrew isn’t about to get irritated over it.

(Nicky doesn’t elaborate that those circumstances being that he understands that Andrew is telling Neil all the places (geographical locations) that he wants to kiss Neil and where he’d do it. He’s really not a prude but how did watching Cars 2 result in this level of dirty talk?! He’s just trying to actually get to see these movies everyone keeps referencing so that he can join in on the conversation)

The kid’s quiet company the few times Andrew’s been in it and Neil has been making some slow progress on getting the kid to open up. Andrew knows that the kid has his own weekly meetings with Betsy and he’s not about to pry.

(It’s social anxiety and stress related. No he has not told Betsy about the whole Russian situation because she’d be mad at him right? Everyone keeps telling him that Betsy and Andrew Minyard are close and that Andrew is her favorite even if she can’t admit to having something like that. She’s nice but what if she gets mad about it and tells Wymack that he’s not fit mentally to be on the team? Then what? He can’t afford college without a sports scholarship. Oh god- Betsy spends a lot of time walking him through stress relief and not worst case scenario-ing every interaction)

Andrew figures that if nothing else this kid is fine with sitting in stony silence. If it doesn’t work then w/e he tried.

So, to Fluent Freshman’s absolute horror and dismay, Andrew Minyard starts to hang around him even when Captain Neil ISN’T AROUND. He becomes unbeatable at Poker and fluent in Japanese if not fully literate.

Once it’s just Andrew and Fluent Freshman sitting in absolute silence for an hour. This might be the nicest time Andrew’s had with someone not part of his family since Renee left. “You ever consider learning Russian?” Andrew asks.

Fluent Freshman’s award winning performance starts here.

“No, I have never considered taking Russian classes here.” He responds turning a page in his book on Esperanto (he thinks it’d be fun) because why take a class for a language he’s already fluent in. He’s bad at lying but he’s GREAT at just not saying the truth.

Andrew doesn’t say anything in response and they continue to sit in silence until Fluent Freshman has to get up and go quietly have a panic attack.

Everyone, except Nicky, all think that Fluent Freshman’s the second coming of Andrew’s general apathy. Bee is proud of Andrew for willingly sitting next to someone in almost complete silence. Andrew says it helps that there’s someone else like him (Bee is confused because Fluent Freshman is known to bring his own brown paper bag to hyper-ventilate into but she says nothing.)

Only Nicky knows the full extent. Fluent Freshman is doing breathing exercises, taking pepto bismol to help his stress related stomach ulcer, and considering using his art gen-ed for theater so that he can commit to this bit better.

Fluent Freshman kind of gets used to Andrew’s quiet company until one day they’re an hour and a half into their usual absolute silence when Fluent Freshman gets up to grab something Andrew looks at him and goes “Hey wanna learn how to use a knife?” And Fluent Freshman stiffens up and straight up faints.

best pairing ever <3

[henrysglock]

there should be a compulsory internet etiquette class, i think, and we'd have to retake the course every 3-5 years.

Just learnt ‘Findis’ is a combination of ‘Finwë’ and ‘Indis’—

they were that sort of sappy parent.

there's something fundamentally wrong with us but we've got each other and that makes me remember; maybe love truly comes for all

[doodlingwren]

No way

[rwby-encrusted-blog]

Might I ask for some JNP(enny)R shenanigans?

Nora: Subs are so fun to play with. All you have to do is hint at what you might do, back them into a corner with a look, or grab their wrist in a certain way and they're a wide-eyed mess.

Jaune: What the fuck kind of Subway are you going to?

Penny: Substitute teachers deal with so much disrespect, and that sounds at though it's assault.

Ren: *Rubbing bruised wrists* Guys.

~~~~~

Jaune, Nora & Penny: screaming

Ren: *runs into the room* What's wrong, Penny?!

Jaune: Wait, why are you asking Penny that when Nora and I are also here?

Ren: Because Penny wouldn't scream unless it's an emergency. You two scream whenever you have the chance.

~~~~~

Ren: What’s the announcement, Penny?

Penny: It’s a lecture. Jaune’s gonna tell us everything they know about sex.

Nora: It should be an enjoyable 60 seconds.

~~~~~

Nora: Ren, I have a great idea.

Ren: Let’s hear it.

Nora: We trick Jaune and Penny to go out on a date together.

Ren: YES!

Ren: And hey, if that doesn’t work out, maybe you and me could go out, get some drinks—

Nora: *hits Ren with a book* THIS IS NOT ABOUT YOU.

~~~~~

Nora: I sleep with a gun under my pillow.

Ren: I sleep with a knife.

Jaune: Both of you are pathetic.

Nora: Oh yeah? What do you sleep with?

Jaune: Penny.

~~~~~

Penny: *sees Nora and Ren together*

Penny: They're cute. I would put them on a boat.

Jaune: You mean… you ship them?

~~~~~

Nora: ARE YOU READY FOR THE BEST FOOD IN THE WORLD!

Penny: *Flinching at the volume* I am as prepared as I can be.

Ren: Then here is your first pancake. I hope you enjoy.

Penny: *Nom Nom ... nom ...* Well. It is certainly sweet.

Nora: It's great right?!?

Penny: Uhm. The Texture is rather 'Cakey' for my palate, as well as being denser than I enjoy. I do not know that I can finish this. I'm sorry.

Nora: *Shocked Silence*

Ren: Oh. I'm sorry. I know Nora likes them very much. Perhaps Waffles would be better for you.
