They have no right to look so cute all bundled up like this.

Enkay Watches the Imp and Skizz Podcast #127 (featuring @joehills)

First of all, if you are not watching Joe Hills on either youtube or twitch, DO IT!!!! He's streaming pretty much every day and the conversations are always so interesting and he has the best little windows into the workings of Hermitcraft. Folks will pop by and have super interesting conversations with him! He's one of my favorite hermits and I think his unique way of experiencing minecraft, life, and hermitcraft is something that deserves more eyes on it, because I know people are sleeping on him.

First off, THIS is how you show up to the Imp and Skizz Podcast! Classy, on brand, and unique!

I love Impulse's little nest of pillows, he's so cozy nestled in there, holding his mandated amount of water like a security blanket

I love that the reason they wanted Joe on was to talk about the coup SPOILERS: they never even touch on it

joe's dad being a logician makes so much sense tbh

"a creationist universe where god wants you dead and i play minecraft like a greek hero idiot" is such an amazing way to talk about super hostile maps

HOW IS IT THAT JOE AND SKIZZ BOTH HAVE EDGAR ALLEN POE ANECDOTES OFF THE DOME

Joe having his wedding taking place during the recess of a vehicular manslaughter trial feels so strange and yet so Joe

JOE HILLS FULL NAME DROP?????

"YOU'VE GOTTA BE JOE KING" okay he mentioned on stream that there was a joke that maybe two people would get and I will proudly claim to be one of the two.

"fighting to become an artist" is so validating to Skizz's journey so far. It's gonna be his year anniversary of being a hermit soon and im gonna get emotional about his path this last year

Joe WOULD put on the Scottish Parliament sessions as background noise, love that

"I don't trust any platform with my art. I'm the one that makes the art and the audience is the one that appreciates my art" "I need to be as platform/brand agnostic as possible" "next time Amazon does something terrible to the unions" 👏👏👏

CHEERS REFERENCE, SKIZZ'S SITCOM BRAIN IS ACTIVATED

talking about his streams like a bar and like,,,,, he's so smart about the role of creators and fandom and i just appreciate joe so much

it's funny that they're shocked about the relationships can be formed within fandoms when like,,,,, that's how they met tango

((also if we talk regularly and read this i love you guys <3))

skizz, the worst chat reader ever i love you

i need hermitcraft standup. please. custom texture snowballs as tomatoes or flowers to throw

thinking about a younger skizz using a tape recorder to record his 'genius ideas' and quotes he likes and annoying the crap out of his friends

YES JOE AND SKIZZ TALKING ABOUT THE SCIENCE OF COMEDY AND THE STRUCTURE, THEY'RE SUCH AN INTELLECTUAL DUO

I'm glad that we got to hear Joe's JFK impression

COURT CASE TALK!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Bdubs will only let Doc win if it's funnier for doc to win, because that's how guilty doc was"

Joe quoting Sun Tsu and then going on the stand and said "Your Honor, Your Highness, my client is a baby" in an asymetric star trek dress, that's the Joe Hills Difference

"DELICIOUS" skizz i love how schadenfreude you are

"FIVE DIAMONDS PER F TIER BOOK???" impulse my favorite wet cat

"I'll make one sale every two months" and also implying that the shopping district has property taxes

the delivery on "two. some people say four" was SLICK

TUMBLR MCYT SEXYMAN POLL MENTION

"tumblr defines sexyman to mean 'most bizarre, cryptid, creepy thing' " not wrong there.

"well scar is obviously going to win the sexyman competition"

"once i found out that it's for weird, cryptid energy, I knew "oh nevermind I'm gonna win this"

joe hills is my favorite weird guy and he deserved to win

cleo as our nonbinary icon placing third place in the tumblr sexyman poll

All in all, fantastic podcast, and not long enough imo. I hope Joe gets to be there in person one day like he originally envisioned, and there's just an untapped well of information that could go into future podcasts

Reminder that you should subscribe and follow Joe!

So you know when Blitz ate a bunch of coals and then cuddled up to Stolas to warm him up and stuff?

Yeah, I’ve been thinking about that but with a reader whose on her period and he just acts like a heating pad <3

combined with a kiss prompt request because they're super cute together.

prompt #37: a kiss to the back of the neck.

You groan heavily into the downy weight of your pillow as you feel the blankets beneath you being tugged insistently. “Go away, Blitz.”

You hear the imp snicker, and you respond by blindly tossing your pillow over your shoulder and burying yourself deeper into the couch. You hear the cushion hit the carpet, obviously having missed him, but instead of returning the favour, you feel him smooth his hand up over the back of your thigh.

“You smack my ass, B, and I swear to Satan, I will put a bullet in your dick.”

Your insult is muffled by the couch, but he clearly catches the gist of it, and you can practically hear the eye-roll in his voice. “Christ on a stick, you’re dramatic when you’re on the rag.”

“Ugh.”

You feel him brush hair away from the back of your neck, surprisingly gentle. It makes a shiver run up the length of your spine, as does the equally soft kiss Blitzø brushes against the back of your neck. It does nothing to stop the pain radiating through your abdomen, but you hum gratefully all the same. Or at least, that’s what you intended; the sound comes out more akin to a groan. He chuckles again. “Just roll over, ya big baby.”

“Hnnn…” your brow furrows, your hand pressed to your stomach in a vain hope that the pressure will help ease what the painkillers didn’t. “If you’re gonna try and feed me whatever you just cooked, you can forget it. It smells like burnt.”

“Fuckin’ wordsmith, you are.” he replies, grabbing your shoulder and forcing you onto your back.

“Ugh, why?”

He shrugs a shoulder. “Because I like your tits more than your ass.”

You flip him off, trying to turn back over. “Asshole.”

Blitzø laughs, turning you back onto your back, and he straddles your thighs when you try to roll away again. You make to complain, to shove the imp away, but stop as he lowers himself on top of you.

Heat radiates out of Blitzø’s body, immediately sinking through your skin to ease the cramps that have been twisting through your middle. You can’t help but sigh, your thighs coming up automatically to squeeze around his hips and hold him in place. He hums a pleased smile at the sound you make, nuzzling his chin into the curve of your sternum comfortably. You realise the smell of him now – burning coals – and the heat of them in his stomach radiates out of him and into yours.

“Ohhh… I take back everything I said.”

“Bet your ass you do,” Blitzø groans back as your hand finds the space between his horns and your fingertips begin to massage into his scalp. You feel his tail wind slowly around your calf. “You wanna start apologizin’ now, or…?”

“Shut up,” you mumble, and he grins, moving up slightly to bury his face in the curve of your neck. His breath tickles hotly against your skin, and you let your hand travel down to tease around the spikes on the back of his head. You can feel more than hear the deep, rumbling purr that sounds in his chest and throat at the touch. “You know you’re not getting up for another, like, three days, right?”

He shrugs a shoulder. “Fine. But what if we turned it around, kept that mouth of yours busy?”

You laugh despite yourself, wincing as the pain returns to your middle. “Fuck, you’re a dick.”

Blitzø’s lips touch the side of your neck teasingly. “Yeah, you fuckin’ love it, though.”

send me a prompt and either husk or blitzø

[caldella]

Post Mastermind Blitzø getting more successful from IMP and renting a 2 bedroom apartment. Showing off the second bedroom and surprising them that he also got another mattress. Stolas is happy for Blitzø to get off the beanbag chair until Blitzø starts explaining, "I know it's not some fancy-ass royalty sized one, so it might be a little small for those long-ass legs of yours but--"

Stolas quickly figuring out that this is literally a bed for him specifically, and Blitzø plans to sleep on the couch again, and he is very not okay with this because he feels like a burden anyway. It turns into a minor disagreement and eventually Stolas caves because the more he refuses, the more Blitzø is convinced something's wrong with the bed that Stolas doesn't want to admit, and now he feels ungrateful. He spends a couple nights in that room but it's isolated, foreign: it's a bed but not the bed he had literally his entire life. This must be what people feel like when they're at an unfamiliar hotel. Eventually one night Blitzø crashes early, and Stolas carries him to the bed, tucks him in, and goes to sleep on the couch himself.

He wakes up at 2 am with Blitzø sitting on the arm of the couch, lizard mode/barely alert and looking like he's had a mild panic attack. Once he realizes Stolas is awake, he tries to swap sleeping spots back. Another, very groggy disagreement ensues, until Blitzø just slumps over and falls asleep against Stolas' legs. This situation occurs a few times, and half the time Blitzø falls asleep so hard he's purring and can't be woken up. The last time it happens, the reason Blitzø mumbles for not wanting the bed is, 'It smells like you.'

The next day Stolas surprises him. He finally figured out how to work the washer and dryer - he had to clean up the spilled detergent, and there might be some bubbles clinging to the ceiling, sorry. And he's pretty sure the fitted part of the bedsheet has some kind of magic that made all the sides short sides, so it's not on correctly- but he has all the sheets and pillows and even the blanket washed and dried. He fidgets. "I'm sorry, Blitzø. I didn't realize I had a ... smell... You should have told me. I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable."

Blitzø badly trying to explain that no, that wasn't what he was trying to say. The problem was he woke up in a bed that smelled like Stolas, but Stolas wasn't there, and it made him panic, and it got worse when he realized that Stolas was instead squashed onto a couch in the next room feeling like he wasn't supposed to be there.

Loona finally chiming in, "You know if you just split the stupid bed you could end all this. It doesn't mean you have to be fucking in it."

[eldritch-spouse]

How would Vorticia react with a queen that noticed she was gonna go into heat and spent the better part of the past few days making a nest big enough for her?

ALSO HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY I HOPE YOU AND SPLENDY HAD A GREAT TIME XFUXYRSYSFSUDSYZDUDSDUYRSRY))

[Thenk you! :>]

This is an endeavor, first of all.

You need the cooperation of most royal staff, and you also need to alert Vorticia's kids that a certain room is off-limits. All of them are adults, so there's no need to elaborate too much, they're usually gone from royal grounds around that time as well.

Eleri will volunteer to help you. They've known the Queen for longer, so it's easy for the imp to point out what types of fabrics and textures Vorticia prefers. They will also hand you things they think will complement the nest. It's pivotal to have Eleri on your side here, because they can effectively keep Vorticia away from that room and keep your (not so) little present hidden.

The Queen may find it a bit weird that you've suddenly started wearing blankets and certain cloths around the mansion, as if Hell wasn't hot enough on its own, so she'll fret over you in worries that you're getting sick. This fretting can turn more obsessive when her heat stars to kick in. Little does she know, you're putting traces of your scent in it just so the nest is more familiar to her.

You'll know Vorticia's heat has well and truly set in when everyone avoids her like the plague. They don't want to get eaten, naturally. You're the only one roaming the place openly, though it would be in your best interests not to get chased down, so simply stay in the room with the nest. The Queen will scent her way to it with flicking tongues.

In a rather vulnerable and hazy state, she'll immediately claim the nest and drag you into it happily, the excitement will probably lead to you getting immediately overwhelmed with her affection. The serpentine royal curls around you, her hands roam everywhere and press your warmth against her scales, trapping you in a ball of touches and kisses until the two of you are wet and sweaty with your first couple of romps.

Only then, after that wave of delight wears off, will she realize that you did this, for her. That it's a gift, that you cared enough for her comfort during her heat that you spent days preparing this.

Vorticia bursts out crying, which is probably very startling for you because chances are you've never seen this woman have a proper sob, but she's quick to assure you she's just very happy and grateful.

Ficlet- Looking Up

Stolas wakes in a haze. His eyes adjust a moment to a darker room than when he fell asleep. Looking over, he sees Blitz laying on some type of pillow on the floor. That's nice of him to stay, He thinks.

He pulls the blanket over his shoulders and walks out of the apartment and down the stairs. Seeing all of this with new eyes. He doesn't even remember going up these stairs he was so dissociative last night.

He reaches the front door of the building and heads outside, before he can be seen, ducking into a dark alleyway. It smells here. He leans against the wall of the building and hesitates to look up. Do the stars hate him now? Do they feel betrayed? He knows one person who must. The only person he had. Octavia.

He thinks back to the song he would sing her. And starts to sing, murmuring it to himself.

"And as the seven rings collapse....although the day could be my last...you will be okay..." He chokes up, trying to hold back tears but they fall anyway.

"You will be okay..." He whispers. He squeezes his eyes. He still can't do it. He can't look up.

"Hey", a familiar voice says next to him and he jumps a little.

"Fuck, sorry didn't mean to scare ya", Blitz says, holding out his arms. Stolas leans down on his knees, falling into them.

"Did you hear me?" He asks. Blitz shakes his head, trailing a finger in the soft feathers behind his neck.

"Nah I just saw you were gone and I came looking", he says. Stolas nuzzles his face in Blitz's shoulder.

"I can't do it", he whimpers. Blitz frowns, "Do what, Stols?"

"Look at the stars", he chokes out between sobs.

"Oh", replies Blitz, moving his hand to rub his back now.

"Well....want me to tell you what I see?" He asks. Stolas nods.

Blitz takes a deep breath and looks up. He doesn't look at the sky often. But he's been doing it a lot tonight. The fireworks have dimmed out now, and the early morning sunrise hasn't quieted the stars.

"I see...fuck what is it, the dipper? The little one? Maybe?" He says, smiling to himself and it makes Stolas chuckle.

"You can't see the little dipper right now", he corrects and Blitz looks at him smug.

"Hmm almost like I need an expert to tell me what I'm seein'", he says. Stolas huffs but stands back up, squeezing Blitz's hand.

Blitz knudges him, "Go on, before the sun comes all the way up and ruins it".

Stolas let's out a breath and looks up at the sky. The doppled dots of light so far away. So hard to see.

He points with a Shakey finger, "There's the Big Dipper".

"Oh damn", replies Blitz. But his eyes widen as Stolas falls back down to his knees.

"Stols?! Are you okay??" He asks, frantic.

Stolas sobs into Blitz's chest. His body shaking.

"I can't hear them. The stars. I can't-" he lets it all out and Blitz flashes passing imps looks to 'keep moving' as everyone starts their morning commute.

"Stolas listen to me", he says as he cups his face, "I've never been able to hear the stars. And I still think they're beautiful". Stolas sniffs, "But they're so far away.." he laments and Blitz squeezes both his hands in his, "But I'm not. I'm right here". Stolas nods, Blitz wipes his tears, kissing his cheek.

Stolas blinks at the kiss and blushes, Blitz's eyes widening.

"Fuck-im sorry i-" he starts but Stolas cups his face now and kisses him on the lips, a soft kiss that Blitz returns just as soft.

"Uh- let's go get some breakfast upstairs", Blitz says, putting his arm around his waist and walking Stolas back into the building.

hi!! i love your hh stuff.if you dont mind,would you mind doing alastor,charlie and adam (all seperate,lol) comforting child (9-12ish) reader? like they see reader as a younger sibling,or a their child! thank you sm,if u do this! hopefully,its not too much-

Don't Cry!

summary: Charlie, Alastor, & Adam comforting you (child reader)!

warnings: mentions of crying, mentions of depression, swearing, mentions of cannibalism (Alastor)

tags: (as always, just tagging a few people i think would be interested in this, please let me know if you would like to be on the taglist!) @o-kye@lil-stormcloud @zuuriell @strangleetomz @xxtalulahlovesyouxx@zoexia@ax-y10 @stars-around-scars-collective@blu3-lemonad3@myheartticks@joviepog@mochamuff1n@unbeleevable@danvstheworld @radio-to-trenchcoat-demons

Alastor (child reader [father figure Alastor]):

Alastor had heard sniffling coming from your room in the hotel, but he had just assumed that you had a stuffy nose.

That was until he heard little sobs from your room 20 minutes later.

"What did I say about a smile, de-"

^^ You were curled up in your bed, hugging your tear-stained pillow, buried under at least 5 blankets.

Alastor was never the best at comforting others, but he tried his hardest to make out what you were saying through your cries. You said something about how others in Hell mocked you for being an imp.

What a foolish reason to bully a child! You can't control being an imp, so why would they act like you made that choice?

They were all dead by the next morning.

Alastor, having no idea what else he should do, took you on a trip to Cannibal Town for tea with Rosie (which you giddily accepted!) & flesh-eating (which you politely declined)!

Charlie (sibling reader):

She knew something was up before you were even upset. You were sluggish, you rarely came out of your room, & you weren't smiling as much!

Expect loads of unexplained boxes of candies & cookies outside of your door, random stuffed animals in your room, etc. She just wants to make sure you feel okay!

It took you a few days to figure it out, & then you just had to explain it to her: you & your best friend had a big argument & hadn't been talking.

Charlie immediately tries to fix it! She's trying to set up a meeting with you & your friend to work things out, she's writing apology scripts, etc.

Eventually, you snap & tell her that you don't want any of this & you just need time to grieve.

Expect 10 apology emails next morning!

Adam (sibling reader):

He's pretty dense (no offense [hey that rhymed]), so Adam had no idea you were upset until another angel had told him that you hadn't done any of your extermination work in 2 weeks & that you also hadn't eaten much.

"What's got your panties in a bunch?" is his first question upon entering your messy room & seeing your miserable self.

You tried to explain to him that you were going through a depressive episode, but he didn't understand.

^^ "Being depressed is just being sad, isn't it?"

^^ This led to a 2-hour-long conversation about depression & a 1-hour-long research period.

^^ "EVERYONE LEAVE Y/N ALONE, THEY'RE DECOMPRESSED-" "It's 'depressed', Adam." "That's what I said!"

[thelampisaflashlight]

lamp i am sleepily walking in here to wonder, should you ever feel inspired--what do you think i (or honestly any us ghesties) would look like as an imp? because i think my soul is a little imp snuggled up in a blanket, but i dont know that imp looks like.

i would love to know your thoughts <3 this is also just your excuse to draw more imps, i simply love them

So I used to have a FC (facecanon) for a character from another band that's also a costume band like Ghost, except they're aliens from the future, but also the 1980's... and Canada (it's TWRP, I'm talking about TWRP), that was a little fruit bat, and I have decided to assign you the honor of being shaped the same as creature:

Also I doodled @mac-and-thefox as an imp, too, because why not?

Imps can really be any flavor of animal, but Mac as a small horse-like creature and you as a bat just made sense to me.

[rebel-hunk-enjoyer]

i love this stuff, three questions for the kalluzeb meme:

Who hogs the covers?

Who is more competitive?

What are they like when they're drunk? How do they act together? & when 1 is drunk, while the other one's sober?

Oooo, I love these questions! Thank you so much for the ask! ☺️

1. Who hogs the covers?

Absolutely Kallus and Zeb doesn't even begrudge him that because look at him! Yeah, he's furry for a human but he doesn't have enough fur to keep him warm and isn't that kind of sad?

This doesn't come up until after Yavin, though, because Yavin was way too hot and sticky and humid for either of them to care about covers. But once they're in space together? Boom, hogs the covers. Nightly. Makes a cape out of the covers in the morning to go put the caf on, like an absolute lunatic.

It gets worse on Hoth, though, because Kallus starts burying himself in Zeb's armpit after turning himself into a blanket burrito and, damn it, Zeb is actually cold on Hoth and wants to share the blanket, so then they compromise by adding another blanket, but Kallus starts trying to hog that one, too.

(Kallus walks into the command center one day with a "Hi, My Name Is _____" sticker slapped on his parka. Hi, My Name Is Alexsandr Kallus and I'm a shameless blanket hog. He lost a bet somehow.)

2. Who is more competitive?

Both of them are so competitive that they are competing at all times to see who is more competitive.

At first everyone else is in on keeping score (mostly because they're rooting for Zeb when Kallus is still freshly defected, it's the nicest way to do something with their lingering feelings of wanting Kallus to lose), but then it becomes obvious to everyone that Zeb and Kallus are playing by some kind of Whose Line style scoring metrics where the points don't actually matter. It's all just competitive vibes and, to everyone's growing horror, flirting? Is this how they're flirting?

It is.

Sparring matches, dejarik and sabacc games and who can get the highest score in some snake-adjacent video game on Kallus' datapad. Then it's imps taken out when they're on a mission, number of successful missions, how many times they've each taken a blaster bolt, amount of bones broken, trips to the bacta tank, just truly insane stuff.

And they never want to compete with anyone else, obviously, because they're literally flirting with this, but sometimes someone new will try to get in on the fun and then their competition becomes who can help the other absolutely obliterate this third competitor in whatever the competition happens to be. Oh, they think they can take down more Imps this mission? No, Zeb is counting every other one of his for Kallus and Kallus just sent a whole squad in Zeb's direction because he can handle it easily.

3. What are they like when they're drunk? How do they act together? & when 1 is drunk, while the other one's sober?

I think they absolutely go into 'getting a drink' together with normal expectations the first time they do. Except it's probably absolutely awful hooch from a secret still in some secluded part of the Great Temple on Yavin and neither of them are expecting it to be that strong, so before they realize what's going on they're both three sheets to the wind and Zeb is talking about how much he likes Kallus' spots and Kallus has no idea that Zeb is talking about his freckles and is preparing to get defensive until Zeb touches his face to indicate what he means. 🥰🥰

But also I think (newly defected on Yavin) Kallus would drink more in the Rebellion than he did in the Empire, just by virtue of feeling safer to do so - to let his guard down, to be intoxicated and a little vulnerable - especially around Zeb. Because Zeb has already seen him vulnerable in other ways and he trusts Zeb implicitly. And I think he might use drinking, sometimes, as an excuse to be more physical than he's comfortable being sober when he's first getting used to things in the Rebellion. He comes in having, idk, not shaken someone's hand without gloves for a decade or more and doesn't know what to do with himself and how very, very badly he wants to engage in the casually physical nature of beings who aren't repressed into Imperial conformity. So when he's drunk he sits closer to Zeb, rests his head on Zeb's shoulder, maybe even nuzzles a little.

Zeb holds his horrible bathtub hooch a little better after that first time, just by virtue of his species and the nature of human-made moonshine and not drinking as much, and lets Kallus be vulnerable and explore the new territory of physicality and is surprised when Kallus just wants to ... well, cuddle? He makes sure Kallus has water and gets Kallus back to his bunk to sleep it off, then shows up with caf and something for Kallus' hangover the next morning.

I imagine the inverse happens on Lira San where there's plentiful alcohol distilled with lasat metabolism in mind and lots of community events - parties and holidays and celebrations of seasons - to partake in and Zeb doesn't realize that he's doing exactly what Kallus had been doing all those years back when he allows himself to let go and have fun. Because he feels safe, not just with Kallus but on Lira San and surrounded by his people. He gets a little sappy with it on the walk home, then really emotional about it when they go to bed, and Kallus holds him and lets him cry it out until Zeb finally falls asleep, then stays up all night, himself, feeling various degrees of devastation for the role he played in Lasan that eventually led them both there.

[the-littlest-maisy]

All About Maisy ⭐️

TW: Abuse, trauma, religious trauma

Backstory:

Maisy is a black sheep sinner demon. They died at 20 years old. Why were they in Hell, and why were they a black sheep? Because they were abused and neglected by their conservative, Christian family. Maisy constantly rebelled back by being disrespectful (attitude problem, sneaking out of the house). She decided to run away from home one night and was hit and killed by a speeding car.

Maisy's CG is Stolas. He found her in front of the palace after they died and woke up in Hell. Stella insulted the sheep when she and Stolas discovered Maisy communicated through bleats instead of words.

Stolas contacted Heaven to see what happened to Maisy and why they were dropped off at the palace. Sera, Head Seraphim of Heaven, invited the Goetic prince to the Heaven Embassy in Pentagram City and explained Maisy's past to him. She handed Stolas a time-traveling orb. He looked into Maisy’s life and saw that her life was a living hell on Earth, hence why they were a literal black sheep.

Maisy was originally named Sophia in the living world, but Stolas decided to call them the former name since she was given a new life.

Notes:

Maisy's little age is 1-3. They are a perma-regressor due to being abused by their family on Earth.

They have a tendency to regress super young when sleepy, so they're also a sleep regressor. They love naptime and bedtime, so it's easy for her to get ready for sleep when those times roll around.

However, Maisy doesn’t like the dark, so they sleep with a night light.

Maisy enjoys reading and has a huge collection of books.

Even though Maisy can be a sweetheart and a little chatterbox, they struggle with emotional dysregulation because of their past in the living world and Stella’s cruelty towards her. Stolas, having been told by his dad to disregard his feelings, decides to help the sheep out by making a calm corner for them. That way, Maisy can learn how to express their emotions in a healthy way and that having feelings is okay. He also does time-ins with Maisy to help regulate their feelings while teaching her right from wrong.

Maisy also struggles with separation anxiety and will become very upset if they are away from Stolas.

Stella tauntingly threatens Maisy that she’s gonna give her a spanking or put her in time-out whenever they make a mistake, which makes them extremely upset and brings back flashbacks. Stolas is pissed off at Stella every time she does this.

Stolas doesn’t condone spanking. He knows that it's the same thing as hitting, and you should never hit a child.

Stolas spoils Maisy from time to time because he knows that they didn’t grow up having a good childhood.

Maisy has a favorite stuffie. It's a hedgehog named Hazel. Stolas gifted Hazel to Maisy one day, and they carried it mostly everywhere with them ever since.

Maisy needs a car seat and a highchair because of their short height. They also need a buggy/stroller.

Even though Maisy was cursed with not being able to talk with words, Stolas and Octavia help them out via communication boards/cards and drawing.

Stolas homeschools Maisy without the religious indoctrination. The sheep was reluctant at first because of their school life (yes, Maisy was homeschooled by her parents and Abeka) in the human world, but he remained patient and understanding.

Maisy likes deep pressure (weighted blankets, weighted stuffies, back pats, hugs).

Blitzø sometimes babysits Maisy. Maisy didn't trust Blitzø at first because they were worried he was going to hurt them. The imp, however, saw her as his second child. He likes to do fun activities and sing silly songs with her.

Octavia likes to play with Maisy. It's like having a younger sibling. The teen sometimes plays nail salon and makeovers with the little lamb.

Octavia plays the guitar and sings to Maisy.

Stolas passed down Via's old, purple blanket to Maisy (with her permission, of course), and the sheep sleeps with it every night.

Favorite Things

Colors: Purple and pink

Foods: Chicken and stars soup, yogurt-covered snacks (raisins, pretzels), strawberries, grapes, grilled cheese, cereal, oatmeal (mixed with peanut butter and topped with bananas)

Drinks: Pink milk (strawberry milk), soft milk (Stolas replaces the dragon nip with sugar-free honey because Maisy is allergic to the former. Nothing life-threatening, fortunately; dragon nip just gives her hives.)

Activities: Blowing bubbles, helping tend to the greenhouse by watering plants and planting seeds, arts and crafts, being carried around by Stolas and Octavia, being read to, Stolas' homeschool, being sung to by Octavia, Stolas, or Blitzø, playing peek-a-boo, playing nail salon and makeovers, playing dress-up

Toys: Hazel, bubbles, soft blocks, Via's old blanket, puzzles, Lalaloopsy dolls, stuffies, tea party sets, dress-up clothes, Calico Critters, Littlest Pet Shop

Animals: Turtles, hedgehogs, ladybugs, butterflies, dinosaurs

[2minutesnotice]

do you think the others ever treat blitz like a sugar baby? cause, while he has a successful business, he is the poorest of the four. two of them are literal hell royalty and fizz is one of the most famous people in hell.

i just like imagining them showering blitz in gifts and being silent partners in his business so he doesnt have to worry about going under if he doesnt get enough clients one week

Just so you know, I'll go just with my headcanon Polycule and kiiiinda ignore canon here, if that's okay?

I'm still trying to stay in character as possible but there's some stuff I'm still trying to figure out, without ignoring their own character traits.

For your question:

Private Blitzø appreciates gifts, as long as they're mindfully chosen. He's not into expensive stuff, he has no need for expensive clothes or jewelry, he's fine with his last generations phone, he loves to chose his weapons himself.

But he definitely loves the little gifts, horse merch, a new blanket from Stolas, a date night in which he doesn't need to pay (and sometimes he does and they let him).

I think he would be really pissed when it was obvious that they would gift him things just because he's not in wealth. Like, when Stolas's tried to buy him clothes for an fancy event they attended to (and it was nerve wracking anyway since it was one of the events in which they showed up together, like officially announced and Stolas was all over him the whole time, nervous energy spreading) he got really angry at some point, since it felt like a weird degrading dress up game for him.

Or Fizz gifting him expensive tech, like, he doesn't need a damn watch that talks to him, thank you very much.

BUT Ozzie is smarter lol

Ozzie involves Blitzø into things. He shows him fancy cooking and Blitzø is so damn well good with a knife, cutting those onions without shedding a single tear, and that pan which they use has a special knack to it and nothing sticks on it and oh, these plates are nice, thanks, they're from a manufacturer handmade from Sloth.

So he gifts him these thing, like, a fancy cutting knife for cooking, to prepare dinner faster. Nice looking tableware, in Blitzøs favorite color because he liked them so much and now he can prepare fancy dinners for them on fancy plates.

He involves Blitzø into HIS business and the man is all over the pleasure bringing things, why not gift him those, he had his fingers in them anyway.

If they think Blitzø is absolutely wrecked tired from doing mission after mission and keeping a relationship with 3 people, Ozzie will tell him how good he is and that his business is thriving and gifts ALL of IMP a day spa gift card. That he owns that Spa is a secret lol

So, Blitzø is good with gifts but they know he has boundaries and even if it is hard to accept these sometimes, they really try to not make him uncomfortable. Also, he loves gifts that involve all of them, LuLu Land tickets, coffee dates, sex toys, vacations (he pays his share of the expenses but who would say no to free drinks). He just does not like to feel like he's using all of them for their money.

(And that's something that hits hard, since Stella constantly is on their back screeching that into the crowd. Also tabloids and newspapers rip their relationship apart, since Blitzø moved into the palace, calling him a Homewrecker and that his status is definitely not good enough for a prince, that he's a moneychaser. That does something to people..)

Business Blitzø will talk business.

IMP is good, they're making money and some of that really gets into their pockets. They can buy better guns, better ammo.

It's not as chaotic as it was at the beginning, since they now can use the damn Crystal (yeah it exists, yeah there was a sad hiccup in Stolitz relationship. They worked it out..kinda) and Ozzie is way better at keeping that a secret then Stolas was, with letting Blitzø handling the book.

(I'm still waiting for that court episode since I think the use of the book will be addressed there and they will be in deep shit lol)

Since I headcanon that Blitzø is half Succubus (or Incubi, since he's a male), Ozzie has that card ready when someone asks.

They also have human disguises now (and yes, Stolas fucked him human, he really wanted to try lol), which makes dealing with the human world way easier.

And when it comes to his business, Blitzø allows his partners a little bit of help, but mostly to keep things smoothly. Obviously Ozzie did his biggest part by giving him a Crystal, but sometimes Stolas does some long overdue Paperwork ("You have to do your taxes, darling! You're throwing away money" "Of course Hell would have taxes, it's literally Hell!") , Fizz looking over their schedule ("You should keep up with the timezones, Idiot. Look, if you do your killing in France and then go to Japan, there will be daylight in Japan and it's way easier of you do that at night, I'll keep an eye on that!") and trying to keep his boyfriend alive lol

But no, no partnership with anyone. IMP is Blitzøs work, his pride. He's good at what he's doing there, he loves his employees, he's glad he has something to get up to every morning. There's his name and his name alone on that door.

He needs that and they accept that. It's that one step to a better picture of himself and his self worth. They even got him to hang a picture of them all into his office and his face isn't blacked out. Just a post it glued over it.

So, thank you for your question! As you can see I love to rant about these idiots lol

[groggygrimalkin]

Heart planets are finished!!!

First off is LOFAR. It's a lush planet covered in rolling hills, flowers, and the remains of cities long forgotten. It's relatively peaceful but has some pretty hostile mobs that travel in groups across the planets fields, looking for any consorts to pick off that may be traveling and searching the ruins alone. It's always daytime and the weather is always fair. It's almost perfect for the planets player, accept the planets Denizen loves causing trouble for fun and sees her as the perfect target to do so.

Next is LODAS. It's a planet covered in pleasant smelling forest,trees, and plenty of shade. The planets landscape is dotted with sleeping mats accompanied with blankets and pillows, perfectly fit for the planets player to rest on. Ghostly shades of the his other selves from different universes and timelines inhabit the planet, some slumbering peacefully while others explore their new dream-like surroundings, all friendly however. There are hostile mobs but they're usually taken out quite easily by the many shades.

Lastly is LOCAP. This mountainous planet is home to many castle structures all connected by winding(and confusing) paths. Most of the castles are uninhibited due to the fact mobs like imps and ogres tend to take up residence inside of them, so it's up to the planets player to clear them out. There's also a giant cache of grist and treasure hidden inside each one, rewarded for clearing them out. However finding the planets Denizen proves to be quite frustrating since it's never in the castle he's currently searching

"You know you make it impossible to focus, right?"

"Yeah, well, it's your fault for having work to do in the first place."

"Ugh..."

Having Blitzø over seemed like a good idea.. At first. In the beginning, it was nice because you needed a quick break from your work. Quick was supposed to be the operative word. What was supposed to be a 15-minute break turned into an hour-and-a-half-long hang out- not that you're complaining. It's just..

"Come on, Blitzø. I promise we can do something later, but I need to get this shit done." For a moment, Blitzø's smile falters. He knows you've got a lot going on and really just wanted to help you relax, but now he's doing the opposite.

He shrugs, hopping off the desk, sauntering over to your bed, and flopping onto it- face down, of course. As stressed as you are, it's impossible not to giggle at his antics.

Blitzø hears you rummage through your desk before placing a few things on the bed.

"Here. You can mess with this stuff until I'm done, kay?"

There's a muffled groan before Blitzø sits back up. "The fuck is this?" He stares at a pile of.. Toys(?) that you've laid out in front of him.

"They're fidget toys. I figured they'd keep you busy while I work."

"You kidding me? What, you think I'm some dumb fuckin' kid who'll just-" As Blitzø's ranting, you shove a fidget cube in his hands, and everything stops. His eyes dilate, he begins purring, and he falls on his back, entirely focused on the fascinating lil cube bestowed upon him.

The silence between the two of you gives Blitzø the chance to think. He knows he can be a distraction.. maybe it would be better if he left and allowed you to work. He's so used to being the problem. That's the last thing he wants to be to you. He's waiting, dreading the moment you kick him out so you can focus. But that moment never comes.

He's not sure how much time has passed before you finally decide you’re at a good stopping point. By now, Blitzø has wrapped himself up in your blankets, scrolling idly on his phone.

"I'm gonna go get some water and snacks, I'll be right back."

Blitzø hums in response, tugging your blankets closer to him. What you don't see as you walk out, is the faint smile gracing the Imp's face.

LU Pokemon AU

bro the strength it took not to give him a full dog team

Wolfie is still a regular wolf. Not a mightyena, an absol, or even a lycanroc, just a plain regular wolf, and it weirds everyone out because no one has ever seen a creature like wolf link. 

Oh and if his team feels split, well that’s intended. Which half suits him better or does the full team represent him well ;DDD 

Time Sky Warriors 🐶Twilight Wild Legend Hyrule Four Wind

Team descriptions under the cut 👋👀

🐶Poipole: Midna, or his memory of her. So Poipole doesn't join Twi's team until the end of tp after the mirror is shattered. I imagine Poipole is born from the remains of the shattered mirror’s dust, suffused with the negative ‘other worldly’ energy of the arbiter's grounds. 

When Twilight hears giggling in the mirror chamber, he doesn’t think much of it. He has spent too many moments since their separation reminiscing about her. Even now, he decides to humour his heartbreak, imagining some lighthearted quip about how far he has fallen for her to stoop to hallucinations. He chuckles at himself and his imaginary conversation with Midna.

🐶Hisuian Typhlosion: in this au ghost types are the only pokemon unaffected by the Twilight. If anything, they already exist between worlds as, well ahem, ghosts. 

There's even that nostalgic weight leaning on his shoulder... Wait... Twi realises he's down bad, but even this is ridiculous! He whips his head over his right shoulder, and there, face to face, is a creature unlike anything he's seen before, wearing an all-too-familiar grin. They zip up and away, hovering nearby with playful curiosity in their eyes, waiting to see his next move. At his bewildered and stunned reaction, they let out that chiming giggle he heard earlier

---

You don’t have to look far to find where Poipole’s gone. If they aren’t hitching a ride on the back of any of their teammates, then they’re off causing trouble together with Time's mons.

🐶Incineroar: Twi didn’t get a choice when this little litten chose him in the alleys of Castle Town, though as a cat man he doesn't mind this one bit. 

Typhlosion first encountered Twilight when he was miserably lost in the Twilight zone of Death Mountain. Pretending to be one of the wandering souls, unaware of the blanketing twilight, Typhlosion carefully ambled in their direction to get a better look at the strange creature. They could feel a rich and powerful soul within Twilight, and noticed how the twilight both welcomed and repelled it. Even odder was their partner sitting on its back. Typhlosion knew dark energy when they sensed it, and that imp's soul was a pool so dark it threatened to swallow up the light - hrm, now there's an interesting thought. 

---

Just because you don't catch Typhlosion causing trouble doesn't mean they're not as much of a prankster as the others—actually, they're worse. Typhlosion has a knack for roping in carefully selected allies into their mischief. Despite their playful nature, they often go missing, staring out at seemingly nothing. As a ghost type, they're attuned to wandering spirits, and will spend much of their time listening to them and helping them pass on whenever they can.

Incineroars are excellent with children, and you can't change my mind. They're not named the 'Heel Pokemon' for nothing! They love playing with kids, pretending to be the villain to defeat, staging extravagant fights with spectacular victories for the heroes. Twilight's Incineroar is particularly protective of its family. Despite aiding 'The Hero,' they are anything but honourable in battle. They're not afraid to employ unfair tactics, from small actions like throwing sand in their opponents' faces to targeting eyes and joints, even going after the enemies' allies. They are unflinching in the depths they will go to achieve victory. 

🐶Mudsdale: Epona but buffer. Twilight's first companion, Mudbray would happily tackle the world together with all the confidence of an unstoppable 8 year old.

🐶Volcarona: Twilight was given a pokemon egg after restoring Faroe's light. It was terrifyingly cold when Twilight first held it, so chilling that even Midna thought it might be a morbid joke from the light sprite. Despite this, Twilight insisted on keeping the egg. 

With each zone of Twilight lifted from Hyrule, the Light Spirits would bestow a ‘boon’ onto Twilight’s team. Cryptic as always, Twilight had no clue what help he received. Steadily throughout his quest the egg grew warmer, almost scalding by the time the last zone of Twilight was lifted; and upon receiving the final sprites boon the egg hatched. 

Volcarona can be quite aloof. It lives at its own pace, exuding a divine presence that others cannot easily disrupt.

🐶Garchomp: I wanted a brutish pokemon that reflected (heh mirrors) his curse and it was a difficult decision between Garchomp and Kommo O.  

It was nothing short of a miracle that Twilight survived the encounter with Garchomp. The Twilight Blighted Pokemon was already an apex predator in its territory, its strength bolstered by the dark magic of the twilight. Twilight doubted he could defeat them. Forced to sneak around, he found that being a hero seemed to attract unwanted encounters - Garchomp suddenly stomped its foot, shaking the earth violently the ground threatened to topple Twilight, as sharp pillars of earth tore across the terrain toward his hiding spot.

Fight fight fight and somehow Twilight lives, Garchomp faints, dark mass is dispelled and happy happy cat meme goes here.    

Garchomp sometimes loses itself in battle, with adrenaline accidentally triggering a mega evolution that sends it into a rage. The aftermath leaves Garchomp feeling deeply ashamed, as it struggles to accept its own savagery.

Notes: twi’s team gave me the hardest time istg. There were too many mons to try and squeeze in, aaaaahhh a total nightmare: Exhibit A (scrapped idea)

But fr not a single dog in twi's team??? Yea well about that… Have Midna's team:

[Necrozma: The rest of the chain aren't aware he has a sixth pokemon at all. He just tells them he technically counted as one during his quest, satisfied that the lie works.

So nezzie here is a nod to the fused shadow that twi does accept in the manga. I have this idea that he has forced guardianship over the fused shadow, as a punishment, but also his duty as the hero. Twis conflicted regarding nezzie - On the one hand he is comfortable with what it represents but there's a deep fear of shame to admit to others he has formed a bond, though tentative, with nezzie.]

In a dungeon chest Twilight finds a Fire Stone. He gives it to Midna saying how it reminds him of her hair.

(No gogoats for twi. Sadge)

[ladydeath-vanserra]

Can we set the Silver Threaded Fates gang on the Inner Circle pleaseeee

I believe wholeheartedly that they would whip their asses into line so quickly

ahhhhh okokok so like. I don't wanna make my characters all OP bec I think that's boring and also SJM was boring with how she handled the IC being op but THAT BEING SAID

I don't think a single one of them would like most of the IC. especially bec most of them are either afab or queer.

Blake I feel wouldn't vibe with any of them. MAYBE Nesta. But she would Not At All like Mor. Blake has little patience or respect for catty pickme girls who don't do not call off their loser male friends from harassing women. She'd definitely be unimpressed with Rhysand and Feyres inability to govern the NC and that's not even including their compliance in the brutality of Illyrian or CoN women

but also my god Blake would hate their attitudes with money. She's always been incredibly broke and poor and she'd be disgusted with their five houses especially while the Illyrians live in war camps in the mountains- who all require Cassian bringing BLANKETS?

Alixs whole range of powers were inspired by magneto and daisy johnson. Considering all their weapons are swords and steel bases metals it doesn't much faze her. She might like, or at the very least, remain neutral about Azriel but if Cassian looked at her for too long or harrassed her she'd probably knee him in the balls or snap at him. She has 3 (or 4?) older brothers. she does not have the TIME for these clowns

Serafine is probably the most mouthy of them all and she's immune to most things fire or heat related. She'd probably verbally spar with Cassian, honestly more directly and meaner than Nesta would. She'd probably tell him he obviously wasn't that great as an Illyrian warrior if he was Rhysands nepobaby friend who was only in power bec of him and despite being in a position of power for 500 years no one respected him or actually listened to him where it mattered

but also she'd love the Valkyries

I feel like Vila honestly would toy with Amren in similar ways Ilar does. she doesn't care about if Amren is a good person or not or powerful or not. Vila is a true to word faerie who does not take kindly to liars and finds it a great offense. It's not so much that she's lying, it's how she's lying. It lacks tact and she's rude. Faeries have a strict code of honor and politeness (how you view politeness and how faeries do is likely very different 😂)

That being said she also probably doesn't like Nesta either but at least Nesta doesn't lie 😂. But my faeries also are immune to powers of the mind or those sorts of manipulations so if Rhys is wanting to use his powers on her he's going to have to try the old fashioned way but Vila is also a warrior in her own right (Vila in mythology were often nymphs but they also aided the heroes of myth- similar to valkyries to an extent)

but also side note: she'd ADORE Alis and Lucien

Horne would be incredibly unimpressed with all of them and would clean out the camps and the CoN the moment they saw what was happening. They are first and foremost a Hunter who chases down wicked beings and creatures across realms and time.

Possibly, they consider Rhysand (and Feyre) the worst offender of them all. As he is a coward who is in charge and is *not* protecting anyone. They are also immune to all forms of elemental powers, so fire, ice, etc, magic doesn't harm them, and they have mental defenses they've trained to use. So, while Rhysand could potentially get into their head, he'd have to actually try

Elias Might like acomaf and acowar Cassian. Though he wouldn't like how Cassian goads Nesta sexually. He has a sister ok and a mom. in what world is it okay to harrass a woman like that. also, I think he might have a spoft spot for Elain and Gwyn

Ilar would probably pester all of the IC. They're a lil imp and a lil bit of a shithead, in the best possible way. Imagine this cat-like blue faerie just causing various forms of chaos with someone as impaitent as Feyre or Cassian or Rhysand or Cassian. They'd be partial to the Valkyries or anyone that gave them treats. So big fan of Alis

Bożechna would probably be indifferent to the whole IC but if Rhysand tried any of his mind games with her, she'd stop him in his tracks. She is a seer and does not put up with Anyone trying to mess with her or hers. Like she's already being poisoned by her evil court members she's not going to let Rhysand badger her into something she has no desire to do. She's probably the most like Nesta

[eldritch-spouse]

After Vesper gets his floof trimmed, what does he do with the trimmings? He could have them made into cozy blankets, coats, jackets, scarves etc and I'd buy one of each of them for warm and just the softness too

They're usually discarded.

However, he's done things in the past with the extra fluff, as special occasion deals with brands and other organizations.

A lot of people would pay ridiculous amounts of money to don the King's fluff on their clothes, yes! Even some other perverts would like to acquire the fluff so they can put it in their lover's/crush's pillows or simply rub some against them and watch that poor person start dripping with want. The effects eventually wear off, but it's a slow process.

Vesper himself doesn't really mind what happens to his trimmings, if the imps snatch some up for themselves, he can easily turn a blind eye to it.

There are instances where the King may want to subtly bother someone without having to exert any effort, and in those cases he'll store the trimmings to plant them in his target's clothing/accessories.
