#this was fun and interesting

[mangaka-neko-chan]

Time to cross over the fandoms. If your Darktide characters lived in Runeterra, where would they live, and what would they be doing?

Thank you my friend, what a LOVELY question!

Harken - So at first I thought Harken could be from Demacia but their vibes don't really fit him. Harken appears basic but but deals with some serious issues of losing his home. SO BOOM, Icathian defender against the void. Either within Icathia, patrolling and holding back the void for Zilean and the others to find a solution in peace or a survivor of the tragedy of Icathia, wandering around Shurima to seek out and fight the Void while assuming that his home is long gone and thus he seeks to redeem himself by avenging the fallen.

Harald - Naturally, Harald HAS to be a Zaunite. There, he'd be even MORE punk. His father is some hot shot Piltoven influential who's deadset on getting Harald arrested. But unlike in 40k Harald would have a bit more freedom to quarrel with the status quo so you'd see him regularly spitting on the Enforcers and absolutely running his mouth in the most sassy way over Piltover. He'd seek out clubs and pubs where rebellion is spread. And wouldn't it be interesting if we kept him being a mage. A mage in Zaun, with no one to teach him but himself, teetering between using his powers to support the good and innocent like his mother wanted or to violently tear down the establishment in rage against his father.

Moggy - Moggy was a bit of a difficult one cause she comes from a place similarly city like and overcrowded like Harald's, so Zaun would be an option. But she's also an overzealous fighter, so Noxus could be good too. But then she's also very bound to her faith and especially spiritually strong. The recent LoR expansion gave me an idea. Moggy as a Zaunite, a cleaner of statues and tall buildings of the Zaun and Piltover buildings as she scales insane heights, one with the wind. Through the tragedy of Zauns environmental damage, she finds solace in faith to Janna. So she climbs up towers, parcouring and masering heights to spread the message between both cities with her painted murals of the wind goddess. Essentially she becomes a religious tagger lol. (And her and Harald can still meet and positively influence each other <3)

Tilly - At first I considered Tilly as a Buhru priestess, since they are all about their faith, moving forward and pretty great fighters but considering that a big part of Tilly's story is how misguided and actually stagnating she is, I'd say Solari would be better. Tilly wuld be a farmer, located lower to Targon, the community worshipping the sun as a provider for food and protection. Tilly would then be chosen as a promising member for the Solari, becoming a priestess and warrior, feared by the Lunari for her viciousness and faith in the divine power of the sun. Also she'd look really, really good in gold armour, let's be real.

Benn - It came to us as soon as you asked but I'll put it in for anyone else reading this. Benn is already based on Captain Farron, a character in Runeterra and one of my favourite cards in Legends of Runeterra. So Benn would just be Captain Farron lol.

i feel like people forget that sometimes characters in fic are written like that because it's a reflection of real life.

people have sex without setting boundaries. people have unprotected sex without talking about their sexual histories or producing recent sti tests. people play with kink without discussing it ahead of time or establishing a safeword. they have anal without 'enough' prep or lube—they may even prefer it like that.

and none of this is really a fantasy. it's all pretty normal. you can feel that it's inappropriately normalised, and you'd probably be right! but it is normalised: one study found that 58% of female undergraduate students on the campus studied had been choked during sex. 20% of those students said that they'd never been asked if it was ok; another 30% said they'd only sometimes been asked if they consented. fully half! (non-paywalled journal article on choking during sex here, including these numbers.) despite a rise in stis of all sorts, condom use is declining. (pdf link to the full text of this study about declining condom use in the us; aidsmap article about an australian study with similar results.)

even when people do talk about things—sex or anything else—they communicate imperfectly. 'yeah, but don't go too far' is consenting and setting a boundary, and also relying that the person you're talking to has the same metric for 'too far' that you do. for some people, 'the trash needs to go out' is a neutral, factual observation; for others, it's a request that the person they're speaking to take out the trash.

even when people understand each other perfectly, people react unpredictably to things sometimes! we behave irrationally! people laugh uncontrollably at funerals, or get angry at the straw that broke their back rather than the enormous load they were already carrying. they get scared and lash out at people trying to help them. when hurt, most people do not instinctively reach for therapy-approved grounding exercises and 'i feel' statements.

pretty much any bad choice that characters could conceivably make is a choice that people make in real life, on purpose, all the time. people do things that can have catastrophic, life-changing effects because it felt like a good idea at the time, or they're leaning into the vibe, or they just didn't think about it all that much, or an infinite number of other reasons.

fiction isn't intended as a guide on the best, safest, and most responsible ways to live your life, and fanfic isn't any different. it's not a narrative flaw to let characters do things that are messy or harmful or downright stupid—it's a reflection of what people are actually like, and not something that authors should feel they have to apologise for.

The Master regenerating into Missy and wearing skirts and doing makeup and using her "feminine wiles" (her words not mine lol) to do evil with her silly little Mary Poppins aesthetic vs the Doctor regenerating into 13 and just. Continuing to wear pants and eat dirt. I love them both so much
