depression is over it’s done it is obliterated look at this fucking shirt i found at the thrift near my house

[rip-aizawa]

since i feel bad dusting off this blog i will add on that last note. since it has been like actually five goddamn years i can say with some level of security that leviathan will likely never be completed. i’ve tried off and on to continue it in recent years but the passion just isn’t there anymore. 

frankly, the main hurdle with it is one i ran into again while trying to hand it off or at least summarize what might have happened: there was no plan. i started leviathan freshly 14 with even less experience with longform writing than the modicum i have now. i started it because i wanted to write a bnha fanfiction, not because i had a story to tell. everything was made up on the fly. towards the end, i did actually start planning major story beats, but only that: none of the track to get there, or the emotional elements that i think were what made the story so well-liked. 

and, in all my young teenage brilliance, i didn’t record most of what i did come up with, so most of what didn’t get recorded in discord dms or the occasional onenote page has been lost to time.

this is kind of a long-winded way of apologizing, because i know a lot of people were at one time invested in the story, and would like to at least know how it was supposed to end if they didn’t get to actually see it. i’ve been on the other end of that before, and i know it’s not super fun. maybe some day i’ll figure it out, but i’ve kind of moved on in life, so i wouldn’t bet any significant amount on it.

peace out

@unovanra

okay

...I think

sitting here, smelling the rain and wet leaves and night air, feeling the chill of the outdoor breeze and the warmth of the house, hearing the raindrops splashing against the roof, the trees, the ground…

It’s nice. It’s really nice. I never feel more like a wolf than times like this. It’s the closest I often get to being really in nature, smelling it, hearing it, experiencing it, since I live in a city and don’t tend to travel.

I hope it rains more this winter.

Hiya, name’s Astra. Apparently means “of the stars”. Somehow related to my birth? Anyway:

pronouns? She/her

gender? Weird, but not trans

hometown? Fortree

current town? Snowpoint

starter? Swampert, Axolotl (Axel), he/him

other mons? Swinub, Fractal, he/him, and gible, Chomps, she/her

family? Two parents and adopted sister Stella (14 now), still in Hoenn

age? 21

sexuality? Hard no: aroace. QPRs maybe

rotophone? Yes, sparky

{{hello, is me. i don’t use caps and may occasionally translate for astra if she loses human language. wait, you didn’t mention that part yet. astra, how can i be a good service rotom if you won’t let me tell people what i do? do you expect me to just not tell anyone why i’m transcribing for you? it’s the internet, it’s not obvious like it is in person!}}

Oh, right, the weird ones:

species? Absol hybrid

hybridization? Truly unclear, adopted

absol traits? Danger sense, little horns and fangs, pokespeech, skin/hair/eye colors, reflective pupils

mega evolution? Can. Hurts. Rather not again

danger sense? Wildly inaccurate

pokespeech? Easier than human

other effects? Autism, SPD, ADHD… six senses are harder than five

Here’s me and my sister, before I moved out. I’m told my appearance is unsettling, so apologies.

//Interaction notes, because Astra seems really overpowered without clarification:

Pelipper mail, its variations, and magic anons can be avoided if I don’t want to deal with it. IC, Astra knows protect and she will use it if her danger sense directs her.

To avoid her being overpowered, Astra’s danger sense is extremely fallible. She can fairly easily sense something immediately dangerous to her, but not what it is, which is why protect is her immediate reaction. Danger towards others is harder, and she needs to concentrate to tell who is the target. The gods and their chosens or hosts are hidden from her, along with magic anons, though their effects are not. For example, if Rayquaza tried to hit her with dragon ascent, she’d get hit, but if Rayquaza picked up a boulder and dropped it on her head, she’d sense the boulder. Her need for focus with danger towards others is a catch-all way for her to have not seen something coming. She can also be overwhelmed by her danger sense if too many people will be affected by the same thing (this is why she left hoenn).

Most importantly, this blog follows shinxverse rules (with permission). The two most important things from that are that A) the gods are uncommonly active in their regions and B) accidental hybridization via rituals/god powers is a thing that just happens sometimes. If still confused, she basically came from ORAS Hoenn but if the legendaries and mythicals were both active and unpredictable.

Now, lore notes:

Astra’s hybridization comes from her parents accidentally wishing on a jirachi while struggling with infertility, and jirachi made her wrong. There is no angst here, the hybridization itself is hard on her but its circumstances if discovered are no-stakes. Her parents are also good people, their relationship with her tops out at drama-stakes.

Astra has no link to jirachi, though this can change with blog interactions. Thus far jirachi made her, stuck her in fortree, and forgot about her.

Astra and her family worship jirachi, which led to the accidental wish. Their religion is highly spiritual and frowns upon proselytization.

Astra is wildly autistic because of the absol stuff. Humans can’t naturally deal with the extra absol senses, so she got autism, and her words come out easier in pokespeech.

Trigger warning time:

Of course, this is an rp blog, everything here is unreality. As such, it will not tag unreality unless there is ic unreality occurring to allow everyone to participate. Otherwise, this blog may contain mentioned ableism, mental illness, panic attacks, fantasy religion, and some body dysmorphia. Always ask to tag: will follow the format of “tw ______”. It will not contain suicidal thoughts, religions resembling real major religions, intentional parental abuse (meaning the worst case is saying something they don’t mean while angry), or anything remotely sexual (mun and muse are both sex-repulsed aroace). These topics may appear occasionally from reblogs or enter my inbox in asks, but never come from Astra or absol-lutely. Character arcs that I expect to have trigger warnings will have a character arc post noting these things beforehand. If there’s something you need me to tag, let me know. Astra is generally low- to medium- stakes for any of her own posts, but may participate in other characters’ high-stakes events.

JESUS OKAY I FINALLY GOT IT this has been stewing in my mind for like 2 weeks now and now I finally got it. Also this is specifically dedicated for my dear pookie @sant-riley thank you for the brain worm♡

Tattoo artist!Ghost who is just so huge and burly and intimidating. His tree-trunk like arms are covered in bold, black tattoos, his strong neck too and you could swear that another large intricate one was on his stomach too whenever his black shirt rode up.

And imagine you, a novice to the tattoo world and Ghost was initially kinda surprised that you came into his shop; it was known for big, bold artworks and someone as sweet and soft looking like you didn't really seem like someone who would get one, maybe he could figure something out for you.

So imagine the way Tattoo Artist!Ghost's heart rate spark when you asked him to design a delicate womb tattoo in that shy voice of yours ;; Simon swears he almost felt light headed from the way all his blood rushed towards his dick because in his mind with an added womb tattoo?? And your soft curves, broad hips and full thighs?? You will look like his own personal fertility goddess and Simon became determined to not only be the one to exclusively tattoo you, but also to win this girl over and become his♡

”discord is for gaming” “discord is for talking to classmates” discord is for popping open the general chat in a server at 3 in the morning to go “hey guys i just remembered i can recite all of psalm 24 king james version from memory. im gonna type it” and then doing that

As a scuba diver, the underwater scenes in Leviathan were quite nice, both accurate and emotional. I don't have much time at the minute, but when I get back into writing MHA fics I plan to attempt to do Leviathan justice in a spin-off. Again, thank you for writing it.

yeah, a lot of the scenes were inspired by my few scuba experiences! it's something that continues to resonate with me to this day, and i was trying really hard then to recapture the emotions and do it justice. i miss diving dearly, but it's hard to find the opportunity.

best of luck with your writing, and i'd love to see if you do bring my guys around!
