Just finished the legacy of the first blade DLC with Odyssey. Gotta say, they could have just let Deimos at 'em. Could have had the Eagle Bearer go after one target and Deimos go after the other. Would of been funny.

Anyway, if anyone knows any fics that write Deimos into either of the DLCs, or any good Eagle Bearer and Deimos sibling relationship fics... hand them over.

Is there a fic out there in which Neuvillette is a selkie-equivalent and that's why his coat tails glow with his rhinophores. If there is, hand it over, I need it.

"I don't belong in this universe."

"Aw, don't say that! You'll find your place—"

"No, I mean I literally don't belong here. I fell through a portal and ended up here a while ago. Still trying to figure out how to get back."

"..."

"...Any ideas?"

[the-raven-song]

Are there any MCU fics where, after the Falcon and Winter Soldier, Sam and Bucky accidentally time travel to before the Winter Soldier, Sam to his home at a point before he met Steve and Bucky to a HYDRA mission where, after having a panic attack, he decides to start taking them down again, neither of them knowing the other is there until later, or am I gonna have to write it myself

"Something's been wrong for a while now. What is it? Could you talk to me?"

"...I would say I love you, but that feels like a lie."

"I... what did I do?"

"Nothing. That's the thing. You're you, just like you always have been. I want to love you just like I always have, but even that feels forced. I want to love you, but I... can't."

"Then what changed?"

"I don't know."

[Opening montage, Person A in the middle of an action scene with Person B seen in the background]

Person A, voice over: record scratch, freeze frame... yep, that's—

Person B, voice over, annoyed: No, you don't SAY record scratch and freeze frame, those get added later, try again—

Alhaitham and Kaveh vs Windsong and Vila for silver/blonde couples, one of whom is struggling in finances or work, and the other of whom is living a life where they're comfortable and content.

[the-raven-song]

Person A, who has a questionable moral compass, talking to a tied up hero or villian in front of them: this is Person B, my impulse control. Unfortunately for you, they also have no impulse control

Person B, sitting next to Person A, grinning a bloodthirsty grin and wiggling their fingers in a little wave: hey there, I'm their impulse control

[the-raven-song]

they say that people change. oh how i wish they'd stay the same because then maybe i'd still recognize you. as though our paths hadn't split years ago.

Brain needs to STOP coming up with new fic ideas and scenes for them and START coming up with ideas for the fics that are in progress and halfway done

[the-raven-song]

I haven't seen anything about it, so has anyone else noticed that the little animation when you click/tap the screen in game appears to say "make good use of this umbrella"

Tartaglia frowned curiously, eyeing the strange woman standing before him. Night in Liyue was quiet tonight, only the two of them below the dark sky.

"You sound like the people back home," he said slowly. "Are you from Snezhnaya, by chance?”

“Snezhnaya? What is that? Sounds like a sneeze."

The woman’s voice was more dismissive than confused. She stood with her hand on her hip, long hair messy around her shoulders. Tartaglia’s frown deepened at her reply and she went on.

"But you seem like you know how to have fun.” Lilya lifted her flask to her lips and took a large gulp. Wiping her mouth with the back of her hand, she grinned. “Are you interested in a fight?”

[the-raven-song]

Hm, I wonder if my [insert hot drink here] is cool enough... *takes the smallest possible sip* *burns tongue* Nope, too hot. Hm, but that was a small sip, am I sure it's too hot? *takes another, slightly larger sip* *burns tongue again* Nope too hot.

“I learnt the hard way that you don’t make a home out of others. I loved them with my entire being, and when they were killed and that was ripped away…”

“A home can always be ripped away. A building, a person, an entire nation. Home can always be destroyed.”

"What are you saying, then?"

"Love is always a risk, so love wholeheartedly. Make your home out of whatever you so choose, and then fight to protect it. What else can you do?"

[the-raven-song]

"I, uh... I love you."

"I know."

"You... do?"

"Well, yeah. You've tried to confess to me eleven times before this and backed out each time. I'm not dense, and your stuttering excuses were kinda obvious."

"Oh... Uh, why didn't you say anything then?"

"I was just waiting for you to get the courage to confess properly. I love you too."

I no longer need approval from anyone who does not matter in order to do what I want to do. From now on, the only approval I seek is my own. And perhaps my parents. And the local cat, but she is hungry and easy to please. And maybe this rock I found on the curb and picked up because I think it looks cool.

"Then I will take everything you have ever loved."

"You can't take everything I have when I have already taken everything from myself. When I have, time and time again, denied myself anything I could have wanted. I have nothing to take. What will you do now?"
