drop the link on that fic of Zeus being a good dad?

Absolutely my friend!

As you can see, it's called Trials of Fatherhood by the lovely @z-eusie and in-between my agonies and right now, she's actually updated the fic and now the Apollo chapter is live!! Everyone should go read this fic, actually! It's a wonderful little compilation of moments that allow for showing both the ugliness and beauty of the gods when taken from a nuanced, compassionate perspective and it's always been one of my favourites to go back to every now and then just because of how fond I am of it. I'm especially fond of the Athena and Dionysus chapters myself but I hope everyone finds their favourite one. <33

Mini Mac #7 : When you're emotionally allergic brother have a crush

Let's go for some brotherhood shenanigans! I like writing in Azure pov, it's fun to see them struggling to understand SWK!

“Brothers, what would you do if you wanted to court someone?”

Azure spat his wine and coughed, strangled by his own drink. He saw, from the corner of his eyes, the rest of the brotherhood have similar reactions. Bull King was leaning on the table, folded on himself, his coughs shaking the table itself. Peng threw his glass at the Monkey King, persuaded he was some sort of evil spirit stealing his skin (of course Sun Wukong evaded it easily). Yellow-Tusk dropped his glass on his lap, mouth hanging in shock.

“You're alright, brother?” Asked Azure once he regained a semblance of calm.

“Yeah, why are you asking?” Chuckled the great sage as he stuffed his face with fruits, mainly peaches.

“Because you just asked for advice on courting!?” Answered Peng, indignation strong in his tone.

“What's weird about that?” Questioned the sage with a raised eyebrow.

“Everything!” Shouted the demonic bird.

“Brother, you're interested in someone?” Asked Yellow-Tusk, and this was what they were all curious about. Sun Wukong, the most emotional allergic monkey in the world, the one obsessed with peaches and warfare, the one who never bothered with common demonic traditions before, was interested in someone? It sounded unreal, Azure couldn't even fathom how his brother would be when in love. In all honesty, he thought his brother was the kind who couldn't feel this sort of thing, the kind to not have any sexual or romantic desire in their life.

“Why are you all so shocked? I talk about him all the time! Maybe your old ages are catching up with you, brothers.” Azure ignored the comment about his age (and how it was quite hypocritical of the centuries-old monkey to make jokes about one age) and focused on what was truly important : Sun Wukong had talked about the person he was interested in and said person was a him.

“You did mention someone while drunk, is this it ?” Asked Yellow-Tusk with furrowed eyes. Now that he thought of it, Azure remembered his brother gushing about someone in his drunken hours, but he never took it seriously. Sun Wukong was the type to gush about anything, really. He gushed about a particular shiny rock last week.

“Yeah! Maybe, I don't really remember. But I'm sure I talked about him!” Laughed the great sage with a beaming smile.

“And so you wish to court this person? How long did you two even know each other?” Asked Bull King while serving himself another glass of wine.

“A few months.” Nonchalantly answered Sun Wukong.

“Isn't it soon for initiating courtship then?” Questioned the lion with an indulgent smile, he knew his brother wasn't used to the ways of courtship, so he probably didn't know demons waited for at least a year of acquaintance before initiating any romantic advances. “Are you even sure of your feelings?” In all honesty, if his brother was really serious about this affair, Azure would gladly encourage him. But courtship was no light matter, and the lion wouldn't want his brother to embarrass himself or this mystery person to be hurt if the sage's feelings changed in the middle of the courtship. The brotherhood knew their littlest brother well-enough by now, his interest was usually a fickle thing, never staying in one place, always wandering.

Sun Wukong put down the peaches he was eating, something he rarely did, and narrowed his eyes in thought.

“What do you mean by that?” Asked the golden-furred monkey as he tilted his head.

“What Azure Lion means is that courtship is no laughing matter, brother.” Explained the Bull King. “We never saw you being interested in anyone before, so it is surprising news. You have to make sure you are indeed in love before initiating any sort of courtship.”

“Well then how do I make sure I'm in love?” Questioned the great sage, Azure winced at this question. Love was a rather difficult topic for war-driven beasts like them, he threw a glance at Yellow-Tusk (the most emotionally sensitive of them) and hoped he would have some kind of answer to offer.

“Love can be different depending on the person, it comes in all kinds of forms. You have to question yourself. Do you feel excited around him? Do you wish to see him often? What kind of thoughts do you have about him? Are you attracted to him? You have to sort out your feelings.” Answered Yellow-Tusk, as always the wisest among them.

“Just ask yourself if you like him like any shiny pebbles you always brag about or if you want to fuck him.” Added Peng while he took a new glass of wine.

“Does it really have to be sexual?” Sighed the sage with narrowed eyes, unbothered by the bird's rather crude words.

“Like I said, love can come in many different forms, it doesn't have to be sexual, but it is good to ask yourself if it is.” Replied the elephant.

“Okay, I get it. I mean I don't even know if we could have any intercourse, it wouldn't even fit.” Chuckled the great sage, Azure Lion raised an eyebrow at that, he knew his brother was shameless but this was rather crude compared to his usual humor.

“What, you think you're too big or something?” Snorted Peng, obviously mocking the golden-furred monkey for his outrageous confidence.

“Obviously I am.” Huffed Sun Wukong with the utmost seriousness, Peng choked on his glass and barked a laugh. “Do you even see me, Peng? I'm obviously too big for this.”

“I would prefer if we do not see how big you are, brother.” Winced Azure, not wanting this fest to turn into some dick-measuring contest. “How about you just make sure you're in love?”

“Yeah, I'll do that.” Shrugged the golden-furred monkey as he sat up and stretched. “In fact I'm gonna head back and see if he's still awake, maybe he'll want to see the moon again tonight.”

“Alright, stay safe, brother.” Called Azure as he watched the sage jump on his cloud.

“Who knew the Monkey King could be interested in courtship.” Huffed Peng once Sun Wukong disappeared from view.

“Truly surprising news.” Agreed the Bull King.

“I hope the person he's interested in will share his feelings.” Sighed the lion.

“Don't be such a worrywart, Azure. Even if he's a fool , I can admit this guy didn't gain his title of Handsome Monkey King for nothing, the man he's pining for will be at least intrigued by his good looks.” Replied the demonic bird as he rolled his eyes.

“That is true, in fact weren't you the one who was a bit infatuated with the simian when you first met?” Lightly teased the Bull King with a knowing smirk.

“We promised to never talk about this.” Groaned the lion. “I was young and easily swayed.”

“Fooled by appearances.” Snorted the bird. “I'm more intrigued about what this madman would do for courtship, and if it ends well, what kind of person could even love this chaotic mess.”

“It'll certainly be interesting to see.” Chuckled Yellow-Tusk.

SWK *at one brotherhood fest* : and I found this gray rock who reflected the light in such a way it made it look as if a rainbow was dancing on its surface! 🤩

Azure *with a tired smile* : That is impressive, brother. 😀

Bull King *at Yellow-Tusk* : how many rocks did he mention in the last hour? I lost count around five. 😑

Yellow-Tusk *at Bull King* : 45. 😐

Peng *after noticing there wasn't any wine left* : Just kill me already. 😩

Young Azure *looking at SWK playing with his monkeys* : He's such a benevolent King, truly responsible, and very handsome too. 🥰

Now Azure *looking at SWK throws up after drinking three sort of alcohol at the same time* : we will never talk about my crush on him ever again. 😩😐

SWK *after considering Peng suggestion of inrercourse a bit more* : But I think that if I used magic I could somehow make it work. I mean magic can do a lot of things, so I'm sure I could shrink myself to the size of a doll to do it. ��

DBK *baffled* : Why would anyone want to be the size of a doll during intercourse? 😳🤨

SWK : why wouldn't you be the size of a doll with someone like Macaque? You are weird if you keep your actual size during sexual endeavors. 🤨🙄

Peng : You're the weird one here, what the actual fuck? 😶😨

Azure : I don't even want to imagine what you would do with such a tiny size during sex. 😰

Yellow-Tusk : How about we change subjects? 😩😬

Azure : I didn't know you were gay, brother 🤔

SWK *thinking gay only means cheerful* : of course I'm gay, I'm always the life of the party! 😆

DBK : how is being the life of the party related to you being gay? 🤨

SWK : What are you saying? Of course you're gay if you're the life of the party, that's obvious. 😉

Yellow-Tusk : I wasn't aware of this rule... 😅

Peng : You're homosexuality aside- 🙄

SWK *Who has never felt like this for anyone beside Macaque and thus doesn't thinks himself as an homosexual* : I'm not homosexual. 😀

Azure :?? 🙃

DBK :?? 😐

Peng :??😩

Yellow-Tusk :??😑

I wonder what the state of sex education is in the brotherhood. I can’t imagine the average wastelander having anything particularly comprehensive, though it may be a little better if they live in a larger settlement.

Given the questions you get asked by Knight Captain Cade I imagine it would be pretty good regarding STIs but I think that would be the extent of it

#OTD in 1867 – A bomb was planted at Clerkenwell gaol, in London, in an attempt to free Irish Fenian prisoners, notably Richard Burke.

The Fenians simply wheeled a barrel of gunpowder up to the wall of the facility when they expected the inmates to be at exercise in the adjacent yard. The explosion blasted a 60-foot gap in the wall; the inward-collapsing rubble might easily have been the death rather than the salvation of the prospective beneficiaries, except that they weren’t actually in the yard at all — nobody was, and nobody…

Fallout 4 OC - Nate Gust Sarid (The Sole Survivor)

Further information under the cut:

Here's my Sole Survivor for Fallout 4, Nate Gust Sarid, just a regular (if sometimes scrutinized) retired U.S Army veteran who just wanted to have a suburban life with a nice job to support his wife Nora and their infant son, Shaun, as well as paying for therapy in regard to his imposter syndrome and place in the "American Dream" and his service, but unfortunately, nukes dropped. Good news, he signed his family up to Vault 111, so they were able to get to safety in there. Bad news, they had to leave Codsworth behind... oh, and they get cryogenically frozen, he watches his beloved wife Nora get shot and his son kidnapped, and awakens in an abandoned vault as the sole survivor... or had he ever been? Regardless, he makes his way into the Commonwealth where he has to pick between four factions (plus the general populace) waging against each other. These factions include; down-on-their-luck underdogs (Minutemen), a group of activists for android rights with a tendency of espionage (Railroad), a military of power armored technology fanatics who are kind of xenophobic (Maxson's Brotherhood of Steel) and lastly the organized science and robotics club gone too far who also kidnapped Nate's baby boy (Insititute). Naturally, Nate picks the first option, and tries to get the other three to get along (to... varying degrees of success). At least he's got his wacky companions to keep him company.

Nate, at a height of 6 feet and 3 inches, becomes the strong, handsome and healthy 33-year-old general of the Minutemen, thanks to supportive and reliable baby boy Preston Garvey, on a journey to reestablish a functional order in the Commonwealth's settlements, and find his baby son Shaun in the process (and avenge his late wife in the process). His hygiene is up to date and is quite incredible with his hands, Nate's sense of style is not so out of place amongst the Commonwealth (unless he wears his customized power armor that he borrowed indefinitely from Maxson's chapter of the Brotherhood of Steel) but manages to both impress and disappoint Deacon in the fact Nate can blend in with the crowd with such average and null clothing. Nate is so fucking sad but he pushes on anyway despite how much he really wants to give up, only fueled by the need to get his son back (and introduce him to a less hostile environment, no less). He gets even more horrified once he discovers he's not entirely human.

Nate is quite perceptive in his surroundings, people and with what his hands are doing, and his extremely skilled at stealth and combat. Not to mention he's a great cook, with an understanding on how to handle not only animals but also children. He's decent at keeping the peace, managing old world tech, and has a good grasp on his books, with his survival knowledge, street smarts and use of seduction being hindered between his time of service and domesticity. He has good days or bad days, no in-between. Though his communication and persuasion skills could need some more work, especially when it comes to creativity in his plans (he was a soldier told to simply focus on what was ahead and being ordered of him).

With great confidence and passion in his quest to find his son, Nate copes with the horrors he experiences with excessive amounts of hilarious sarcasm. Nate traverses the Commonwealth with mild patience and average intelligence, only going on quests just to get by or rally support for the Minutemen, or to find clues on the whereabouts of his missing son. His happiness went from high to low very quickly after the nukes dropped and he lost pretty much everything in his old life. Shaun was the last piece of that life he wanted to preserve... until he discovers he's sixty years too late to be there for his boy rather than just a decade like he initially thought. He has little anxiety and his beliefs are rather muted.

Nate isn't necessarily mean as he is blunt and coping with sarcasm. This man is incredibly brave, willing to take on Mirelurk Queens, gangsters, Deathclaws and the Brotherhood of Steel if it means getting his son back and giving the Commonwealth a better future. While he doesn't resort to violence, he's aware that his communication skills are far from fantastic, and given the hostile state of the Commonwealth, he is prepared and honestly expects to get his hands dirty and bloody should the need arise. He can think things through but when it comes to his son, Kellog or the Insititute there comes a bit of a hinderance in the planning stage. Nate isn't very agreeable, in fact he's more opposing to forces he believes are unjustified and in the wrong. He'd honestly rather find his son, but Preston's idealism gives him a new purpose and something for him to feel useful. Formerly he was just pragmatic, but spending time with Preston and the Minutemen, as well as travelling and helping others like Nick, Cait, Piper and Hancock around settlements and communities (such as Goodneighbor and Diamond City) and additional factions like the Railroad, Nate gets a bit more hopeful than he'd like to admit. Nate spends a lot more than he saves and prefers the outdoors to the indoors. Honestly its quite terrifying how this man can switch from calm and collected to wild and dangerous so fast. Nate is, and he would never admit this, a possessive man, as well as stubborn and decisive.

His charm is mostly backed up by his sarcastic quips which do help make him somewhat approachable despite his bluntness, and that's not to mention the fact Nate is a truly empathetic man. Definitely generous with what he gives to the settlements in the Commonwealth (something the citizens are extremely thankful for) and his wealth is steady, though he has low aggression (that's not to say he can't be enraged, such as whenever he encounters the Insititute and Kellogg) and he's still in his mourning period so his libido isn't his focus right now (though when it eventually comes back up again, his Rizz isn't too bad given Piper's reception to it, despite how rusty it had gotten).

Nate is quite an honest man (though very blunt), not saying that he can't improvise and adapt while undercover in the Institute. Preston saw the makings of a leader and helped carve out Nate into a natural-born one for the Minutemen and the Commonwealth. Though blunt and sarcastic, he's somewhat polite, though mostly to his companions and most of the faction leaders. Honestly kind of unintentionally gets swept up in the politics of the Commonwealth. Cool, flirty, cute and surprisingly fun, if a little gullible (such as when he entered Goodneighbor), but that doesn't change the fact that, should Kellogg and the Institute be involved (or say, Nuka World), he is the scariest Fallout protagonist there is out of the lot I have.

He doesn't believe in any higher powers, or at least refuses to due to his unconventional creators, though Nate thinks that all of what happened couldn't have been a coincidence (which he is kind of correct). After visiting Far Harbour, and seeing some spooky shit in the Commonwealth, he doesn't throw the idea of magic and the supernatural amongst the espionage androids, mutated monsters and feral braindead ghouls out of the realm of possibility in the Wasteland. Nate believes in soulmates, especially when Piper doesn't throw him out of her life after the revelation that he's a synth whose life has mostly been made up by his son Shaun. While Nate doesn't see the world in black and white, he is aware that some folks are worst and more moral than others, while the rest of them fall in the in-between. He believes luck has something to do with his rebellion, but he also knows most of the events were manufactored by "the Father", aka his son Shaun as some twisted experiment.

Family and friends are amongst the most important priorities Nate has, as well as justice for his wife and the truth behind the Institute and his own origin. The opinions of others come next, especially with his new loved ones that he's managed to find. His health and wealth are something he does try to keep up with at least to find his son or after that, continue on living. Home is on the backburner until after he discovers the truth about Shaun, the Institute, as well as himself.

His SPECIAL stats:

Strength (10), Perception (9), Endurance (4), Charisma (6), Intelligence (5), Agility (7) and Luck (5).

Main Perks include:

Strong Back, Lifegiver, Action Boy, Critical Banker, Wasteland Whisperer, Rifleman and "Science!"
