gonna give her a silly lil staff for funsies, she deserves it

between being a witch and her connection with tenos, kara is very magically inclined. why should i not give her a funky lil staff for magic convenience? the gems help channel more powerful magic

speaking of powerful magic karas gonna play a huge role in abyss rescue mission. girlie has the omniscient on her side she is locating jordan whether he likes it or not. though the abyss is outside the vault gods protection, tenos still has the advantage of Knowing. acting on that is not their strong suit, but thats where everyone else comes in.

[ I randomly got the urge to do this. If there's another Paladins character you'd like me to do this for, comment or send an ask!! ]

♡ Vora as a Partner ♡

○ She isn't big on physical touch. She will hate when you initiate it first, and will push your hand away from her and get irritated.

○ But as she warms up to you (which can certainly take a while), she will give you very subtle touches. Her fingertips will brush against yours when you stand next to each other, she will allow herself to be closer to you.

○ She may doze off and subconsciously scoot close to you and lay her head on your shoulder.

○ If you try to push her into more physical touch before she's ready, she'll go right back to square one of not wanting any touch. You have to be patient for her to open up.

○ She may call you little insults here and there, but it's all out of love.

○ She has a bit of a jealous streak, and she has a bit of trust issues. She won't like you being away from her for long periods of time, and she may ask occasionally why you still hang around her. It may seem a bit cold of her to ask, but it's her way of asking if you still care about her.

○ If anyone dares to threaten you, though, she will quickly resort to murder. She is very protective of you, which shows that, even though she can be very cold and distant with you, she does truly care.

○ It is rare for her to genuinely laugh, so the first time you can make her laugh and smile, she'll quickly catch herself and try to brush it off and act like it didn't happen.

○ She doesn't say "I love you". Her confession of love would be more like "I would die for you."

○ She would protect you from the other creatures of the Abyss.

○ When she finally kisses you, it is slow and lingering, but shows how much love she truly has for you.

○ She would love to dance with you as she hums a random, soft tune. She would lead, of course.

[noodle8]

he's just soooooooo something 😌

[scandalouslamb]

honestly at this point I’m starting to think max can’t do. anything. right. not even die in a thematically relevant way 😔 free him…..

fortunately, by failing and continuing to live in misery, he can really hammer home that no one is winning in the world he's created! yay! max wins by losing!

he'll never be free... he doesn't deserve it

[paragonrobits]

Solar Exalted: Alright everyone, what do you bring to the table? Lunar Exalted: I can be so pretty its unspeakably horrifying Solar: Excellent Alchemical: I can turn my arms into super lasers! Solar: Can you transform into a robot dinosaur that has laser arms? Alchemical: With enough purchases and installations of Manifold Transhuman Implants, probably Abyssal: I murder people in horrifying ways Infernal: I CAN HIT PEOPLE SO HARD THEY EXPLODE LIKE NUKES Abyssal: Wait what Infernal: My blood is poisonous and can turn you into a deep one Abyssal: Hold on Infernal: I embrace the unspeakable suffering of life to make myself stronger and beat the living shit out of anyone that hurts me Abyssal: what Infernal: also I can dance so sexy the human mind is physically incapable of not fixating on it Solar: Neat! You're fucking weird. I like that

[cheemken]

Not prev but you and that other anon are talking about ygo so I thought ygo pokemon au?👀

Anon you're on to smth here👀👀

Omf wait no that's dope tho cjxmdm

Anyways here's what I think their ace monsters would be lmfao and like, what summoning method they'd specialize in bc why not lmfaooo

Lance - he would use Blue Eyes White Dragon let's be real, Blue Eyes Alt is his ace and he'd specialize in Fusion summoning, he probs has all the Blue Eyes Fusion monsters too; well, that or Felgrand bc Divine Dragon Knight Felgrand lowkey fits him

Steven - he has the vibes that he knows how to Link summon so let's give him G Golem Invalid Dolmen as his ace

Wallace - lowkey I think he'd have a similar deck to Ryoga and Rio, tho I'm leaning more on Rio's deck bc it fits his vibes so his ace would be Ice Princess Zereort or Number 94: Crystalzero

Cynthia - I want her ace to be Draco Berserker of Tenyi idk it fits the vibes bc it's like Garchomp, really strong but one Ice Beam would probs kill it lmfao

Iris - okay I know she'd have a full Dragon deck I just know it and her ace would be Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon. And ofc she's gonna be the main charac here and what yugioh mc hasn't gone through their bastardization arc amirite so she's also gonna have Number 62: Galaxy Eyes Prime Photon Dragon

Diantha - look w the pendant she has I want her to use Pendulum summoning okay she would, I want her to have both Abyss Actor and Solfachord decks, I picture her using Solfachord when out in public bc I see her as someone who'd be a dueltainer, and her ace in her Solfachord deck is ofc DoSolfachord Coolia. In her Abyss Actor deck she'd have Abyss Actor Superstar as her ace, and I picture her using this deck out of the public eye or maybe under a persona bc ofc, no one would expect the elegant shining actress of Kalos to use fiend type monsters, but she loves her Abyss Actors y'know, they're theatre kids like her lmfaooo

Hau - lowkey I see him having the Yosenju deck,, or like,, the Destiny Hero deck, but also the Elemental Hero deck fits him too. But I'm kinda leaning more on the Destiny Heroes one bc that deck plays heavily around the graveyard, and smth smth connection to Decidueye being a Ghost type and all that. Plus it'd be interesting ofc since like the Destiny Heroes deck are said to be based on vigilantes/anti heroes, and it'd be dope to see that while Hau is like, this really carefree guy, he has this side that's like, if you fuck around you're really gonna find out y'know what I'm saying hahah but yeah his ace is Destiny HERO Plasma and like, as a treat he'd also get Destiny HERO Dominance

Leon - okay this one I legit see him having the Odd Eyes deck, he'd also Pendulum summon, I want him and Dia to be dueltainers but Leon's really more on the entertaining side while Dia's there fucking everyone up w her Abyss Actors. It'd be dope too if he snaps he'd summon out Odd Eyes Raging Dragon, but yeah, his ace would be Odd Eyes Pendulum Dragon. Tho, normal Odd Eyes and then Odd Eyes Advance also low-key fits his vibes

Geeta - okay Geeta I'd wanna give her the Six Samurai deck, mainly bc of Kingambit,,, and yeah hahah it'd be dope ig bc apparently there wasn't much?? Abt the Six Samurais until they added Legendary Six Samurai Shi En, so yeah that's gonna be Geeta's ace monster hahah I wanna say she's have that and Shadow of the Six Samurai Shien

// All my Vos-centered MC:SM AUs & concepts: //

(Can’t remember how many I’ve shared here already, but I’m making a masterpost nonetheless.) Find all reference designs here!

Possession!Vos (Vos Possession AU) 👁️

(My prized AU:) After the adventure to the Sea Temple goes awry, Sammy is killed, Vos is left trapped, and Jack flees. Vos survives being caught in the obsidian cage, and Romeo has more in store for him… if he agrees. Unfortunately for the Admin, our favorite Sea Temple adventurer is incredibly homesick and declines his offer to be a champion. A decade later when Jack finally returns to the temple with Jesse, Vos is overjoyed to see his friend again. However it would seem the Admin isn’t quite done with him yet… Chaos and shenanigans ensue as the brita filter man is puppeteered by god himself!

—Full masterpost: here!

—Read here!

Oarfish!Vos (Oarfishposting AU) 🐟

Set in an AU where most characters are half-animal, Croco!Romeo is a ‘collector’ of rare hybrids. His challenges are all secretly traps to ensnare anyone he finds interesting. Unknown to Jack, the Sea Temple was specifically built to catch Vos… and it worked perfectly. Finding Oarfish!Vos and Pangolin!Jack intriguing, Romeo designed the temple to split the trio, kill Hawk!Sammy, and snare Oarfish!Vos in obsidian nets. Jack escapes and Romeo later lets Vos out of the nets while he quietly brainstorms traps for Jack. Without the gauntlet, Vos is able to explore the rooms, but can’t open the main entrance doors. The Admin still checks on him every now and then even if Vos doesn’t seem to enjoy his new home. He gets along well with the guardians at least so that’s a plus.

—Land, Sea, and Sky trio my beloved

—I love him.

Drowned!Vos 🔱

AU where Romeo curses Vos to become a Drowned and hunt down Jack. The Admin is upset that Jack threw away the gauntlet and abandoned the challenge after the Sea Temple adventure went awry and aims to use his presumed dead friend to take care of the problem. After filling the obsidian cage with water and uh… waiting, Romeo inflicts Drowned!Vos’ goggles with curse of binding that warps his mind into believing Jack left him there on purpose and fills him with blind rage. He is also given a prismarine compass that always points to where his target is. Not sure if a potion of weakness and a golden apple will cure this one, Jack…

—He might also get a trident if I’m feeling extra silly.

—Read here!

‘Neath!Vos 🥀

A spin-off of the Possession AU where Vos again rejects Romeo’s offer. Rather than simply locking him back up in the cages to rot, Romeo instead teleports him to a secluded part of the ceiling in the Underneath and traps him there via obsidian roots. The scavengers come across him and inform Binta who helps him escape and he becomes well acquainted with the Fred Folk after everything. Jesse and Jack eventually find him when they go to the Underneath with Xara.

—Based on a fever dream I had

—More here!

Champion!Vos (Champion Vos AU) 🗡️

A second Possession AU spin-off where Vos loses hope in being rescued from the temple and accepts Romeo’s offer to be his champion. Our favorite Sea Temple adventurer is trained as his apprentice until the Admin sets his sights on another, a certain “Slayer of the Witherstorm.” After things don’t go to plan, Vos may be reunited with an old friend… just not in the way he was hoping.

—Jack gets the clock :[

Mage!Vos (Fantasy Trio AU) 🪨

—Fantasy/DnD AU where the adventure trio (Barbarian!Jack, Mage!Vos, and Archer!Sammy) explore a magic castle in search of ancient artifacts. Rather than killed by guardians, Sammy is felled by drakes. Vos is afflicted by a tipped arrow he blocks and slowly turns to obsidian much to the horror of Jack. Nowhere near the entrance, Jack is forced to leave his friend until he can come back with a way to break the enchantment. But that may be a few years…

Ailment!Vos (Abyssal Symptoms AU) 🪸

It would appear the guardians and colossuses are not the only weapons hidden within the temple’s walls. A mysterious illness may befall any unfortunate enough to make it too far into the Sea Temple. In this AU, one unlucky adventurer will be one of the first to face an ancient ailment that affects both body and mind: the Abyssal Symphony.

Chipped!Vos 🏜️

A portal-hopping AU where the adventure trio find the enchanted flint and steel and make it to Crown Mesa. Computer chaos ensues as Jack and Sammy must save their friend from the clutches of technology beyond their understanding. “Welcome, Vos! Yay!” :]

Sandwaste!Vos & Treescape!Vos (MC:SM TempleSwap AU) 🗺️

AUs where the adventure trio visited alternate temples made by the Admin (instead of the Sea Temple.) Depending on the biome, they will face the harshest challenges both desert and jungle have to offer. Sand and vines aren’t as harmless as you’d think.

—This AU was mainly an excuse to design alt outfits for Vos.

Angel!Vos (MC:SM Angel AU) 🪶

AU where the angelic trio find out just how dangerous an abandoned shrine can be. Though the shrine that killed the Witherstorm was thought to be dormant, a quick venture around proves otherwise. In other news, someone comes into contact with the Witherstorm remnants and becomes biblically accurate! ^^

—Witherstorm laid waste to the land and killed everyone, making them all into angels. Admins remained Gods.

—The shrine was constructed as the angels’ last stand and it proved successful. After the storm’s defeat, the creature’s body fell and caved in the structure, leaving the place in ruin and littering its lowest levels with dangerous remnants.

Imperial!Vos (MC:SM Flight Rising AU) 🐉

—I have a WHOLE STORY about this lad but that’s a post for another day… Flight Rising my beloved ^^

[ghostessmanor]

Something is off about Geeta. I can’t put my finger on it. But there’s some things that really give off a vibe that there’s more she’s not showing or telling. 

As a character I love Geeta. Her design is beautiful. While we don’t get much in person interactions with her, there’s lots of context about her from people all around. And while normally I would feel a bit negative about that, it seems to work really good with Geeta.

ALSO, I don’t think she’s some big bad villain. I just feel like there’s more to her than we currently know and if so, I would LOVE to see it in the future. 

[medicinemane]

I was thinking of a character of mine, who is a very powerful shapeshifter, who has a particular affinity for doing stuff with their blood

Anytime someone stabs them they basically unleash hellish blood tendrils and spikes and whatever

The funny part of course being that they literally could do that at any time, it's not like they have to wait to be stabbed, it's just more dramatic and fun to have a "you done fucked up" clause when you get stabbed

[moved-to-void-kissed]

10 11 and 14 for the s/i asks <33

Thank you so much for sending this, friend!! Sorry it took me so long to get to .w.

(source: “self-insert ask game!” by kissofthemoonrabbit)

10. who was your first self-insert? - Hmm.. After thinking about it for a bit, I think the answer might be Amber, who I currently use as one of my Skyrim self-inserts but who was originally created as my character in a Minecraft RP (because her character concept in both games is identical: got attacked by a dragon, has the same kind of powers as that dragon, but fights against it for the sake of the ordinary people instead of giving in to her nature and siding with it).

However, it’s tricky to establish the divide between “this is who I’m playing as in the game” and “this is a specific self-insert who exists beyond just being a playstyle on a save file”; this divide is why self-inserts like Emily don’t count. Skyrim was definitely one of the first instances of me using a specific name that isn’t my own for my character, but Camille also originated from the same server Amber did (and I know I made her after I played Amber), and Carmine was not specifically established until later on even though I did play as a Khajiit quite a bit.

11. choose a song to apply to your self-insert! - Haha, I can try. So far, I’ve only been able to do this for a few self-inserts, and with most songs it’s less “songs that apply/fit if you imagine her singing it” and more “songs with the same vibes” (for example, Shinkai City Underground by TanakaB and Babylon by Tohma are both Lamia songs for the latter reason). However, for a song that applies.. MONSTER by Kira is Aria’s arguable main character song. I have a whole PV for it featuring her in my head, depicting her taking revenge on a particular unsavoury individual from her/my past.

14. choose a self-insert and put her, unaltered, into a different source. how does that world receive her? - Again, my instinct is to use Aria for this one because this is literally what she does within the context of Kingdom Hearts’ canon; she and Aqua travel to worlds threatened by invading Heartless or darkness from a villain, with Aqua working more traditionally alongside the important heroes of that world to help them defeat the Heartless while Aria goes to the villain causing the problem, claims to be able to help them with their goals, but instead passes on information to Aqua and the other protagonists, while also siphoning the villain’s darkness away to weaken them and then using it to defeat them to save that world.

In these instances, she is received as an apparent antagonist, using her inhuman features like her wings to show the villains her powerful darkness and convince them to let her “assist” (read: weaken and leak info about) them, only to have never been on their side at all and get to have the satisfaction of taking them down alongside the other heroes. Alternatively, sometimes Aria and Aqua travel other worlds together in order to scout for new potential Keyblade wielders, and in those cases Aqua’s magic can make them both appear to fit into the world more easily, but only if necessary; for example, if they were to go to Alrest, Aria would claim to be Aqua’s Blade to explain her unusual appearance and powers (as she’d still want her wings to be visible, in order to fly).

I hope that those answers were alright! Thank you very much again for sending this in ^-^

Doing anything is just a gauntlet battle between which task is worse to do at any given time

Cleaning your house > Doing homework

Cooking > Cleaning your house

Doing homework > Searching for a job on indeed

Searching for a job on indeed > networking of any type

Doing the job you have > Searching for a new job

Doing homework > Working

The lesson learned here is that I should be really grateful I get to "only" do my homework on a day to day basis but in reality they're all in a 6v1 against my willpower, and my willpower loses every single day

[sunderwight]

Cumplane where Airplane, in a fit of either bravery or insanity or positive or negative self-esteem (he's not totally sure) decides to cosplay as Luo Binghe and post the pictures online.

Of course, he doesn't do it as "Airplane Shooting Towards the Sky", he knows he has some questionable fans and doesn't really want to hand them a picture of his face. So he posts the images under one of the pseudonyms he uses for lurking around the comment section and social media tags. It's just a handful of images of him looking like the protagonist in his head, attempting to strike cool poses in a wig and some period clothes (he rented both).

The reception is... mixed. Airplane does not have abs, after all, nor a flawless complexion or much skill with makeup. He is fat, freckled, and awkward. The PIDW readership is not known for being particularly supportive either. In fact they're mostly a crab bucket of negativity and masculine posturing, so he gets a lot of mean-spirited commentary.

It's fine. Nothing he hadn't expected. Really solidifies for him that posting was a fit of madness, actually! What did he even expect? He's bracing himself for the worst when he sees that Peerless Cucumber, notorious hate-reader and defender of Luo Binghe's honor, has commented. Ah, shit. He's probably going to rip into Airplane for daring to sully his precious Binghe's reputation by dressing up like that, isn't he?

The comment is long, too. Fuck. Airplane's not sure if his self-esteem can take a comprehensive beating from the champion hater himself, but he's too curious not to look.

Shen Yuan, in the meanwhile, is just pleased that there has FINALLY been a Luo Binghe cosplayer who looks the part. Of course Luo Binghe wouldn't have exaggerated muscles, those are just a product of dehydration. Binghe spent most of his disciple years running around chopping wood and hauling laundry, and then later doing whatever he could to pack on the calories in order to make it through the Abyss. A hefty workman's build would only make sense for him, anything else would be nonsense. Airplane also described Luo Binghe as having a beautiful face, which Shen Yuan won't blame most cosplayers for not being able to just make happen, but a beautiful face doesn't mean "covered in so much makeup it looks like an anime character"! When would Luo Binghe have the time or inclination to put on makeup? A natural beauty with some inevitable blemishes would make more sense and be much more appealing, and this "Airplane Crashing to the Ground" (funny play on the author's name, Shen Yuan approves) has very pretty features! Everyone hating on this cosplay is just an idiot, the only actual problem is that his wig is poorly fitted.

So in true Peerless Cucumber fashion, he lays this all out.

This gets him embroiled in arguments with several other fans, who even accuse him of actually being the guy in the photos, claiming that there's no other reason why he would defend them. Shen Yuan doesn't care if people think that's him, because that's still the best Luo Binghe cosplay he's ever seen, but he doesn't want them doubting the sincerity of his arguments. So, he decides that the only reasonable thing to do is dress himself up in cosplay as well and then post the actual photos of himself.

While he'd like to dress up as one of Luo Binghe's allies like Mobei Jun, or maybe someone cool like Yue Qingyuan, he is too pedantic to think he could pull that off. Those guys are all strong warrior types, and Shen Yuan is a scrawny pale rich kid who looks like he'd probably lose a fight with a wet paper towel. The only characters he could plausibly pull off would be some of the more consumptive members of Binghe's harem and maybe, maybe, one of the weaker villains like Shen Qingqiu.

Shen Yuan is NOT posting pictures of himself crossplaying to the central nexus of toxic masculinity itself, so... Shen Qingqiu it is!

Poor Airplane has to go sit and stare at a while for a while. Peerless Cucumber likes his cosplay. Peerless Cucumber, ardent defender of Shang Qinghua's sellout crappy main character mary-sue, thinks Airplane is good-looking enough to cosplay as him. And said so. Repeatedly. And then posted borderline thirst-trap villain cosplay of himself, inadvertently revealing in the process that he is hot.

What the. What. What?!

Anyway, Shen Yuan suggests that they attend the next convention both cosplaying together because Airplane Shooting Towards the Sky is supposed to be doing a meet & greet at that one, and wouldn't it be fun to go as a pair? And Airplane agrees before his brain catches up and he realizes that might present a problem.
