#when i GET YOU chronos

[hibiscus-percy]

Don't imagine Zagreus when Melinoë was born. Don't imagine him seeing her and immediately knowing he would do anything to protect her. Don't imagine him being excited to be a big brother; to give the love and attention and patience he never really had growing up. (Sure, he had Mother Night, but he never understood why his father hardly ever paid attention to him for anything other than to enforce his lessons. Something always felt off..) Don't imagine the joy he felt, posing for that family portrait.

Don't imagine the fear he felt when the House got attacked by Time itself. Don't imagine him doing everything he could to protect his family; his newborn baby sister.

Don't imagine him thinking, for all those years, that he failed.

obi-wan buying cody little gifts that are almost painfully practical, both because he wants the plausible deniability of being able to say that they benefit the mission or improve morale or w/e, and also because he knows that cody appreciates practicality.

hey all. it's been a while. life has been not... bad per se, but I certainly haven't had the energy to keep up with this blog in quite some time. I'm closing submissions for now, and gonna try to queue up the whole of what has previously been submitted.

i'll let you know at the end of all that if i'm gonna continue at all. if I decide to abandon this blog, I do intend to keep it up as a resource and will not delete it.

thank you all for a great time

[ Reply & Reaction to this - Rue belongs to @ask-team-misfit ]

Silas seemed very comforted by her response, it wasn't often someone made such a big promise to him. Usually when his fellow Zorua's made such promises they quickly broke them. Maybe it was the fact Rue was a stranger... or maybe it was that he was extremely naive but he trusted her word. Shakily he stood back up, this time he looked much more confident. However, as soon as his starting word left his mouth his ears perked up. He heard... something. Someone, he knew someone had been lurking around. But he never expected it to be her so soon.

Silas quickly froze in fear... he wasn't supposed to be out here. He REALLY wasn't supposed to be out here. The last time he was out here he ended up battered and bruised, barely able to let out a plead for mercy. Even so, he turned to the familiar figure who had approached him. It was his 'Mother', Seance. Though she smiled at him, he knew that expression was one of pure rage. She was beyond angry, he was just thankful Rue was present... that was the only thing keeping her at bay for right now.

The ghost loudly scolded him. {"Did you not learn anything? Did the last time really not get it in your head? You really are stupid."} She scoffed before, waving a hand at Silas. {"I'll deal with you later."} Seance seemed thankfully disinterested in him, she wasn't going to waste her time on a lost cause. After all, no matter how many times she corrected him he always did the same things. Over and over again, never learning.

"Why are you meddling with my child? Do you locals not learn to leave us alone?" Her accent was much more apparent than Silas' however... unlike him. Her sentences were much more well put together and clear, "Actually." She cheerfully hummed.

"Tell me little one, do you have any Zoura in you?" She studied Rue for a moment before letting out a chuckle. "Well, I don't think that really matters with a pup as beautiful as you." Easily she knelt down beside Rue. "So... let's get to know each other, hm?"

"Is she around here somewhere? Are you an orphan? Someone as cute as you should watch out, I heard there's an absolutely gorgeous fox around here who loves to adopt little stray pups like you~ If you aren't careful she might just snatch you up for her own." "Though I wouldn't blame her for doing so," She reached out to stroke Rue's hair with her claws. Her touch felt more chilling than anything, "You have such beautiful and fiery hair and... Oh! Honey-coloured eyes. You're so gorgeous, I don't have one like you~" She thought for a moment, muttering to herself. "Though... I already have six pups. Perhaps I could replace one... yes. I'd get rid of my annoying little fox but." She sighed, "I need him! He's too good at killing things with that illusion of his. Maybe pup #2 or #3... hmm... oh yes... #2 is perfect."

→ Seance, The Mother of Zoruas is now available for asks. However, she seems more interested in Rue at the moment. → Silas is unresponsive for now... another pup has been brought along with Seance.

What playing Crono Cross feels like

[effable-as-f]

Thinking about Thanatos, when he was tricked and imprisoned by Sisyphus. Trapped, rendered powerless, knowing that the mortals he was supposed to steward were suffering, unable to die, while he could do nothing about it. Thinking about Than, once he was freed, swearing to himself that he knew better now, that he'd never let that happen again. And yet,

[themyscirah]

simon : *unable to do something for whatever reason* barry : *nobody fucking asked him* hal could do it

Real and true however you severely underestimate how rude Barry is to Simon lol

Istg its

Whatever problem: exists

Barry: wow this is crazy. I wonder if Jess could fix this with this ring of hers. Let me go run into the next room and ask her, we really need a lantern on this and I bet Jess would know. Or maybe I could call Hal, he's out in space but- *leaves to get Jess or Hal*

Simon (has been standing there the entire time): 😐😐😐😐😐 <<contemplating murder

Like just oh my godd 😭

Barry rlly is such a dick to Simon unprompted at all times. Within like 6 issues of rebirth JL I think I have 3 or 4 different instances saved of this exact thing happening where Barry just totally ignores Simon's presence or what he says just to talk to or praise Jess. It makes me want to explode

@avaetin

Had some questions (wanted to know some very specific unnecessarily detailed things) about the AU

•I need to know what is going on in Hades mind watching two primordials discuss his son with so much reverence lol

•Also I was wondering if maybe you are gonna go down the questioning-his-gender route for Nico? Like with all that Mother thing, and the switching between pronouns when talking about Ananke and then talking about him. Especially because his immediate reaction wasn’t discomfort when being called Mother or being referred to with she/her pronouns and even when khaos was like we can change his anatomy, instead of being uncomfortable by that he was only like actually that’s not the biggest problem 🤓☝️(loved that btw)

Like maybe not trans but more like gender fluid/ gender non conforming? Fits in with the can’t bound such powerful beings by the concept of gender thing.

Would love to know what you think. But him not going that path will be nice too and I practically melted when chronos said that he is perfect just the way he is 😭😭😭

•I have also been wondering is Leo alive?? Because the seven are going and annabeth is replaced by alabaster, does that mean Leo comes along too? I mean technically it’s a tsats plot rewrite so if the timeline is same that means he will be there. But he will show up later. So do they believe he is dead rn? Did he see this Nico is Ananke situation? As in is he in throne room rn? Or he is gonna come back later and would get a rundown and then proceed to make corny jokes? If he comes back later is calypso with him? What does she think about this because she is older than the gods right? And like does she choose to not accompany them to Tartarus or is there like laws and reasons stopping her or something? Also idk is caleo gonna be a ship or do they break up?

•Also the Apollo getting punished thing, I know Jason was stopped from dying because chronos, but do we get a time skip to directly the tsats part? Then what about Nico’s involvement in the last book? How does chronos feel towards Apollo (cause he has a crush on Nico lol) ? But more importantly how does he feel about his beloved befriending the Trogs (🥹) ? And also since time would have passed, there dynamic changed too? Like before they get the prophecy (do they still get one?) when nico hears the voices, chronos is defo there, so will we get a after-a-nightmare scene 😭 ?? Is Nico like comparatively at ease around him before they even head towards Tartarus? I am pretty sure you already have this figured out but I was still curious lol

This kind of got long 😅

Take all the time you need answering :))

And also if any of these lead to potential spoilers feel free to not answer them!! More than happy to wait and see things unfold

ive been playing so much hades 2 atp i feel like the first Big early access patch is gonna legit change my life....

[moonrecalled]

figuring out how to bring rei back for threads without ruining the theme of pq... this is just me brainstorming atm, but!

i do like the concept of like... okay so rei learnt that her life had meaning because she managed to change people's lives (implied for the better), even if only a little bit, right? but there are likely a lot of people who feel that all they managed to accomplish in the world was making it worse. that perception they hold is probably not actually true, but it would be interesting if the collective souls/wishes of people like that managed to bring rei back into the world in order to like... fulfill their desire to change the world for the better through her??? almost like she's helping them ease their regrets through living for them.

idk if that makes any sense. or if it's healthy or fair. but like... it might be workable. idk why it'd be HER specifically who came back, unless it's something to do with her connection with chronos that allowed it to happen, or maybe she's a cognitive "copy" of rei instead and not actually the original?? or something.

i still feel a little unsatisfied with like... how she accepts her death and that her life had meaning as it was by the end of PQ, only for me to be like "just kidding she's alive now!!" but.

→ Silas has been healed by Malachi! He will no longer appear to be injured in future posts.

→  Silas has also received a wish from Malachi! It will now take the form of a yellow Star Piece and be displayed on his profile.

[ . . . ]

It would be an understatement to say Silas wasn't sure how to react, he took a long moment to stare at the gift. This was the second time someone had given him something. His expression shifted from confusion to worry before settling into something more neutral as Malachi explained. He didn't say anything at first, he was almost completely lost for words. Only being able to give a small puzzled sound before he hushed up again. It was after a long and awkward silence that he finally spoke up. Unlike his previous loud and over-the-top persona his voice was low and quiet. Barely loud enough to be heard, he seemed to be his genuine self in this moment.

It was obvious he wanted to ease their worry, possibly reassure them. But he couldn't, he couldn't possibly say it, not with all the people he let down. Those he ultimately left betrayed by his impulsive and self-destructive actions. Now that another person was willingly putting trust in him after all these years he wasn't about to make a false promise and ruin their hopes. With a final sad glance at them, the Zoroark nervously put the item into his bag. Rather than closing it and moving on, he began to carefully go over everything. He shifted things to the side every so often as he appeared to be looking for something, something he could give them. After a while of searching, he finally pulled something small out of his bag.

"It was mine before I was forced to evolve." He quickly cringed at the thought before he continued, his voice still quiet, "My mo- I mean. My trainer gave it to me a long time ago... All it does is remind me of something I never wanted." He sighed holding it out, "Just don't break it, Please. If you don't want it. Just give it to someone who needs it more. I don't care. It's probably worthless to you anyway." Despite claiming to not care, It was clear it pained him to give up one of his sentimental items to them, but he was too dead set on paying Malachi back to care for his own feelings at the moment. Begrudgingly he gave the Jirachi the strange stone before he turned away, his usual rude tone quickly returning to cover up any vulnerability that might have slipped out. Silas threw them the best glare he could muster up. "Don't say I owe you anything. Alright? I don't want you knocking on my fuckin' door like a debt collector." "I don't owe you shit, so don't say I do."

→  What's this? You received an item from Silas! He refuses to take it back. You have been gifted a [Everstone] by Silas, it appears to be roughly carved into the shape of a Zorua.

-> Malachi has been added to the relationships page.
