#too many rooks

[icebluecyanide]

thanks @too-many-rooks for tagging me! This was fun :D

When was the last time you cried? Hmm probably this weekend after reading a few feel-good trans stories, like this one. I've been pretty tired so it doesn't take much to make me tear up when I'm alone. 😅

Do you have kids? Nope, maybe one day!

Do you use sarcasm a lot? I guess??? My family is very good at the type of sarcasm where you basically just lie with a straight face/without intonation and assume people will know from context that you don't really mean it. Sadly this does not always work which makes things awkward ahsdlfhs

What sports do you play? I guess running and working out at the gym? I used to play football and do judo as a kid tho.

What's the first thing you notice about people? Not sure! Probably clothes/general appearance, but nothing special I pay attention to.

What's your eye colour? Blue.

Scary movies or happy endings? 🤔🤔🤔 I don't think I've actually watched that many horror movies tbh? I like the genre but idk probably happy endings.

Any special talents? Nothing very special, but I guess I've got a pretty good memory for random details/stories. Which means that even twelve years later I could tell you some very specific episode details from s3 of TVD. 😅 Not very useful but on the plus side I can sometimes manage to make this work for stuff like remembering conversations or real life history lessons.

Where were you born? Not going to dox myself here, sorry haha

What are your hobbies? Writing, running, working out, reading/listening to audiobooks. I also enjoyed making gifs lately, tho sadly there isn't time enough after work for all of them.

Do you have pets? No. 😔

How tall are you? 174cm.

Favourite subject in school? I was really interested in a lot of subjects so probably a mix between maths and history and English (but also looooved the particle physics module we did towards the end).

Dream job? Honestly thinking the dream would be to have the whole day to write. Like one of those sweet gigs where you get to travel a bit and do research and then write your novel (or fanfic lbr). Tho I would probably hate writing if it became more of a job haha.

tagging @polarnacht1 and @rirren and @limnall and @protoindoeuropean and whoever else wants to do it!

Okay, but what if, after graduation, all the students band together and create a gigantic contract that states that, after their deaths, their respective UMs are to be given to Malleus, so he'll never be alone?

The contract's paper received protection from Vil's Fairest One of All, so it's basically indestructible (it can only be broken after Malleus himself dies).

Future Malleus tries to use everyone's magic at least once per day.

It's a Deal, Off With Your Head, Bind the Heart and Split Card are very useful for his daily activities as a ruler, he uses Oasis Maker to water his garden and help in times of drought, I See You is mostly used to keep prized possessions in check and Sleep Kiss has saved plenty of people.

The more destructive abilities like King's Roar are mostly used in times of peril (or when he wants to be petty and dramatic), and the same goes for Bet the Limit. Shock the Heart, Laugh With Me and Snake Whisper are very useful for intel gathering or pranks.

He uses Unleash the Beast whenever he visits a colder climate or just wants to change forms without turning into a dragon (he becomes a black wolf with green eyes, very fluffy). Doodle Suit is often used to make food taste terrible (he misses Lillia, even his atrocious cooking), while Fairest One of All protects all gargoyles frim erosion.

Far Cry Cradle is used to reminisce fond memories, and he likes to use Meet Me in a Dream to visit Ortho, who is still alive. He LOVES dashing around with Living Bolt.

He can't exactly use Gate to The Underworld, since it's hereditary and troublesome, so Idia gave him an indestructible tablet with a custom gargoyle game and a "Idia Mode" (the tablet makes annoying remarks, like "GG Folks" or "This RNG really is awful").

BONUS:

Malleus: As your King, I hereby declare that the Senate is to be immediately disbanded.

Senate: WHAT

Idia Tablet: LMAO. Sucks to suck!

They agreed to let Anathema take ONE photo with their polaroid camera. And they got tipsy enough to forget their jacket somewhere so Ortega's helping them keep warm, that's all. Don't make it weird.

Sequel to this post

Gonna start dropping links to songs from Corey's playlist that match the vibe of the art so here's Sugar by Sleep Token

never enough crow posting don't be ashamed... your crow posting inspired me to think about some potential things for my rook because i want to play as a crow but tragically i am gay so then that devolved into thinking about how i can make some toxic yuri/yuri development arc with neve. but never stop the crow posting i love it

please do not say tragically we need more lesbianism in this fandom like we need air... neve/crow rook is already iconic to me. the hard-boiled detective/femme fatale dynamic we deserve

[hoboyherewego]

I put more effort in this than taking care of myself. My priorities are not set straight

[dreadeves]

say what you will about the theory of johnny being lucifer or being related to lucifer, but by god it would be funny. like kit was traumatized after watching his father being brutally ripped apart in front of him and now three-four years later he learns that was just because rosemary was dead and johnny decided that it was time to truly embody the deadbeat dad trope and traumatize kit instead of paying child support. like johnny going ‘oop, need to wildly traumatize my living weapon to put him on the path to fully be my weapon <3’ and dying in a way only a true theatre kid can instead of like. telling kit literally anything

and if i say that aemond is the main targ going mad on the show and is the one causing the most damage to the realm and the aemond stans will start defending him in the comments— what then

a strange thought - Ben 10 is, in fact, the only one who already has canonical children (14 to be exact) now it's curious to see the reaction of the rest of the HoM to this information

teen!mom Ben & his babies is something I've been wanting to draw for months, but i also just feel tired from thinking about drawing those 14 cute babies lol (maybe some day i will have enough energy for this specific cute thing haha)

but yeah the only thing I keep thinking about is that in HoM AU, if big chill's kids ever be back on earth, Ben will finally have (almost) enough emergency babysitters for them who wouldn't mind that the kids could fly/phase thru stuff/freeze stuff/be big space moth toddlers.

guess who is their favorite babysitters are (to Ben's both delight and frustration)?? Thats right: Danny (for all obvious reasons) and Jenny (because she has cool buttefly/moth themed transformation and can chill with them in space). Least favorite are: Rex (to his great sadness, but he is just not good with kids) and Jun (because she is surprisingly strict, all those years of dealing with Ray Ray's nonsense made her very adept at wrangling unruly kids lol). The others are a mixed reaction/acceptance.

Orz stepbrother Azul and the tweels and Riddle orz Mera your brain is so big. May I raise you: stepbrother Vil ✨️ Good luck finding an ally as a normal person whose mom married into the peak of stardom 😔

OOOOO OMG step-brother Vil who knocks you up (whether intentionally or not) and since you’re connected to Vil as his step-sibling naturally the media and paparazzi will sometimes flock to you in hopes that you’ll share some juicy gossip about your step-brother. And as much as you try to find someone who’ll help you, no one will believe you that your own step-brother is the father. Vil could never do something like that! …or so everyone assumes because he’s a star who must make choices with his career and reputation in mind. :)

But also!!! Since you’re connected to Vil and his father, two very influential figures in the entertainment industry, you’ve gotten the chance to meet many other celebrities and attend exclusive social events, where you’re dressed in the finest outfits. No member of the Schoenheit family should ever look anything less than beautiful and stunning, so Vil’s almost always on your case about etiquette and how you dress and such.

Beneath all of his strictness, he’s hiding such a strong infatuation for his dear step-sibling. And if it ever got out that he was in love with you… naturally, such a big truth must be kept secret.

This is jumping the queue bc some really cool people reblogged my last post of Corey and they escaped containment.

Updated sidestep design perpetual WIP

Sidestep days vs retribution. They're slowly reacquiring their self expression. Next book will probably be the full return of the scene/punk look

Bonus Corey sans most of their clothing to show off their tattoos under the cut. CW for healed SH scars
