This made me think of your Swap AU Reaper Nurses

The Silver Reapers were quite the spectacle. Seemingly immobile statues made of the gray metal, dressed in traditional 18th-century dresses. They only show how dangerous they are when you turn your gaze away from them.

Their hollow eyes are always open, covered by the pink sheer veil that hung under thier giant decorated hats. They're always watching, and you'd never know until you've got the blade of a smallsword driving through your chest.

Court of Wanderers comes out this week!

Here is vampire hunter Remy, and his two vampire lovers; Xiaodan and Zidan.

[bluepr1ntyy]

The Afterdeath family lore is actually crazy like you got Silver who literally died and became a ghost, Raven being born with a disability and everything related to his cat allergy/fear, the whole Goth-Raven vendetta, Sorell almost being murdered TWICE and loosing an eye in one of those, whatever Lilac’s story is about, Shino almost being murdered, Geha’s divorce(and just her as a whole) and probably more 😭

New Releases of April 2024!

I’ve been really excited for Dear Wendy for so long! Can’t wait for it to come out :) I have no clue how I’m going to find time to read everything coming out this month tho 😅

[bestworstcase]

...you have instilled A Thought in me, do we even know that Tock was sent by Salem? Afaik there's never been any in-text evidence beyond the assumption that Salem wanted to wipe out SEWs, and I'm not aware of any word-of-god that she was an agent of Salem? Like, our only two "data points" on Salem hunting SEWs is Tock, who we only know was working for someone, and the hound-man, who we know literally nothing about.

I'm about as convinced as can be that Salem has, in fact, spent most of her time just chilling in exile, but I struggle to fully square that with hunting SEWs - what if even that is just another thing Ozma blames on her out of paranoia?

we do, per her amity arena card:

Tock was a proud faunus. She was a predator, a born hunter. It wasn't enough to merely have the green scales, she was a CROC. That meant she needed a nasty bite. It was a tad uncomfortable at times, sure, and took a lot more flossing than she liked, but the looks on her victims' faces when suddenly facing her sharpened metal teeth was worth it. every. time. Master Salem did always warn her, though, to finish her prey before her invulnerability wore off. After all, her aura shattering after those heart pounding sixty seconds was a dangerous price to pay. Still, she could never give up playing with her food, as that was the privilege of a predator, and nothing made Tock feel more alive …than dancing with Death.

and in all fairness to ozma: he’s not the one who proposed that salem has been hunting down silver-eyed warriors. maria’s father* believed that… well, “how could such powerful bloodlines be so rare, unless something was actively seeking to destroy them?” and ruby hears that and goes “salem.”

(*who cannot have been ozma, because maria was among the first generation of huntsmen and her father an old soldier who would’ve been a contemporary of the king of vale)

two obvious flaws in that reasoning:

sometimes a trait is just rare. silver eyes seem to originate from ozma when he has children with partners other than salem, and we know of… two. out of all the lives of his that we’ve glimpsed (four in the lost fable, three in the infinite man, the hermit-wizard, the king of vale, ozpin) only one had children. say it’s been four thousand years and ozma reincarnates, on average, once per century: that’s forty lives. if we’re shown a rough approximation of how often this man has reproduced, he’s only had children in four of them. across four thousand years. no shit they’re rare!

silver eyes are a genetically heritable trait that marks people born with them as destined to “lead the life of a warrior,” to live and die fighting grimm. “unless something was actively seeking to destroy them” YOU MEAN LIKE THE MONSTERS? THE MONSTERS THAT SILVER-EYED WARRIORS ARE LEGENDARY FOR HUNTING? again, no shit it’s a rare trait! warriors, famously, are a lot more likely than most to die young.

add in that oz seems happy to recruit silver-eyed warriors and must know there’s a kernel of truth in the stories, but really doesn’t seem to know much of anything useful—man didn’t so much as mention ruby’s eyes once in v5, he was more concerned with getting her proficient in hand-to-hand combat—and it what it really looks like is that the myths appeal to him as symbols. silver warriors are pure, incorruptible, destined heroes… smaller, more honest souls… et cetera.

it’s the actual silver-eyed warriors going “i can do WHAT NOW with my eyes!? how can this power be so rare, so obscure?”

anyway. our data points are:

maria, a legendary silver-eyed huntress whom salem definitively sent tock to assassinate something like 40-50 years ago

hound guy (??????????)

hazel saying of silver-eyed warriors “we’ve dealt with their kind before,” which might be in reference to hound guy.

summer rose, who joined salem.

not a data point strictly speaking, but worth taking into account: silver eyes are said over and over again to be very rare, so salem logically can’t be offing them by the score, nor keeping dozens locked up in a laboratory somewhere. there just aren’t enough of them!

also not strictly a data point: two empty seats at salem’s table, one of them accounted for by summer rose. if summer is working for salem of her own volition, then salem isn’t averse to working alongside silver-eyes; ergo, her problem with them must be with what most of them do, which is kill grimm.

salem is grimm. the grimm have been her only real companions for thousands of years. it is also fairly obvious at this point that grimm are not mindless soulless killing machines, because they keep behaving like emotional beings with a high degree of social organization and far more individuality than they’re given credit for. salem—

—cares about them. it tracks that she’d assassinate silver-eyed warriors who gained the kind of prominence maria did. i think it’s probably worth noting that the one absolute certainty it-is-what-it-looks-like data point in regard to salem killing silver-eyed warriors is… a legendary huntress who had nothing to do with ozpin or his conspiracy but went around calling herself the grimm reaper.

ignoring ozma’s imaginary shadow war whilst living in exile doesn’t necessarily mean salem wasn’t doing anything bad at all; just that whatever she got up to didn’t have anything to do with him.

that she targeted maria rather than anyone affiliated with oz in and of itself is an implication that she wasn’t paying much attention to him at the time; conversely, there hasn’t been so much as a hint that salem ever sent anyone to assassinate summer, ozpin’s token silver-eyed warrior, in the years before summer found her. and then hound guy is just a pile of question marks punctuated by an empty chair and me squinting at the lovecraft story very hard; if nothing else, the sixth empty seat at her table and the implied timeline of cinder being the impetus for that experiment gives me pause.

“The Silver Citadel”, Anthony Horowitz, 1987. Illustrated by Terry Oakes.

[programming-chaotic-cat]

(Demoroyality verse), what are AfterDeath roles in it?

They are a metal band, both are singers, and share the main role, wich changes depending on the music (sometimes the main singer is Geno, sometimes is Reaper), Geno plays the guitar sometimes as well, especially when he isn't the main singer, and the same can apply to reaper, but his instrument is a bass. The kids who are older now, and able to also cooperate to work are part of the band, Raven is the drummer, Sorell (idk if I spelled it right) is the main guitarist, Goth is the main bass player, Shino Hana does some props work, like lights and stuff and there are more kids who participate, but I need to think of who and what they do, there's gonna be a pianist, and more guitar/bass players. Silver takes care of the younger kids during the others work. But yeah, that's all.

Meghan discusses some of her favorite queer and polyamorous romance books! Since she mostly reads series, she gives overviews / recs for four series that she's (mostly) read this year: Reaper Series by Rin Chupeco, The Last Binding by Freya Marske, Sex Wizards by Alethea Faust, and the Dark Olympus series by Katee Robert.

If you want to read Meghan's book reviews, you can check out their Storygraph account. They have reviews for most of these books on there already (and if they don't have one up for one of the older books, feel free to put in a request and they'll post one)!

This video was too powerful to upload directly to Tumblr, so we've brought it over from Youtube so it'd still be play-able right here.
