dad bad, mental health lowest it’s mb ever been, and then my boss is just being casually racist and ableist in the store

anyway as part of the new self indulgence stakes of this blog i would like to point out it is hysterical to me that by careful application of ships i have given three of ax's muses a raging thing about hair.

#evi w the hair like candlelight and her husband is entranced by it every time. #i started w a gag their k*z has a canon partner w the long dark braid but then merel also has a long dark braid and i realized Ah. #and ast*rion sure does talk up hel's 'one beauty' (her words not his) more than he does most other traits. #i want to point out this is emphatically NOT author appeal it's just one of those things we looked back on and went 'IF I HAD A NICKEL--' #crack //

ok, jester's hat is off.

i'm on an edge due to my dad's health and an unrelated incident today just ripping out my mental stability at the root. i'm not well, things aren't looking so hot in terms of coming back from this. i'm likely to be either taking a big step back or throwing myself into the hobby depending on which side of the coin my fucked up brain lands on. i hate to do this as i feel like i only just started getting back into the swing of things but i'm hitting a wall mentally and need to start organizing that space, as it were.

if i do hang around things are likely to turn self indulgent for a minute, i'm likely to be more scarce in dms, i might focus on what's short/gives the fastest returns in terms of effort vs results. it isn't me playing favorites or trying to alienate anyone, i have just been here before and i know where it ends.

#got blindsided with something from the past that actually for real reframed more than half my life #and the perception my entire family has of me and who i am and every dynamic i have irl for the worse. #and so that's doing wonders for my mental health. there's no health left. it's like actively infected at this point. #i just want to give you all a heads up in case shit goes sideways regarding this blog soon. #out of stories

INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (1994) SENTENCE STARTERS

❛ So you want me to tell you the story of my life. ❜

❛ What were you going to do? Kill me, drink my blood? ❜

❛ I'm flesh and blood, but not human. I haven't been human for 200 years. ❜

❛ I couldn't bear the pain of their loss. I longed to be released from it. ❜

❛ You lack the courage of your convictions. Do it! ❜

❛ Don't be afraid. I'm going to give you the choice l never had. ❜

❛ Your body's dying. Pay no attention. It happens to us all. ❜

❛ No words can describe it. Might as well ask Heaven what it sees. No human can know. ❜

❛ You'll get used to killing. Just forget about that mortal coil. You'll become accustomed to it, all too quickly. ❜

❛ There's nothing in the world now that doesn't hold some...Fascination. ❜

❛ The dark gift is different for each of us. But one thing is true of everyone. We grow stronger as we go along. ❜

❛ That's more like it! Anger! Fury! ❜

❛ Remember: Life without me would be even more unbearable. ❜

❛ You must know something about the meaning of it all. ❜

❛ They know about us. They watch us dine on empty plates and drink from empty glasses. ❜

❛ Forgive me if I have a lingering respect for life. ❜

❛ Perfect! Just burn the place! Burn everything we own! Have us living in a field, like cattle! ❜

❛ What if there is no Hell? Or they don't want us there? Ever think of that? ❜

❛ You're in love with your mortal nature. You resist what can bring you peace. ❜

❛ We're predators, whose all-seeing eyes give them detachment! ❜

❛ It's your coffin, enjoy it. Most of us never get to know what it feels like. ❜

❛ Kill them swiftly if you will, but do it! For do not doubt you are a killer! ❜

❛ My philosopher. My martyr. "Never take a human life.” ❜

❛ Pain is terrible for you. You feel it like no other creature, because you're a vampire. ❜

❛ Evil is a point of view. God kills indiscriminately, and so shall we. ❜

❛ A little child, she was. But also a fierce killer, now capable of the ruthless pursuit of blood with all a child's demanding. ❜

❛ Remember, never in our home! ❜

❛ Time can pass quickly for mortals when they're happy. With us, it was the same. The years flew by like minutes. ❜

❛ More melancholy nonsense. You grow more like [name] daily! ❜

❛ Do you want me to be a doll forever? ❜

❛ Can't I change like everyone else? ❜

❛ Be glad I made you what you are. You'd be dead now if I hadn't. ❜

❛ You will never grow old. And you will never die. ❜

❛ I thought of all the things I'd done and couldn't undo. And I longed for one second's peace. ❜

❛ He will never let us go. ❜

❛ What is it now? You irritate me. Your very presence irritates me! ❜

❛ Is that supposed to frighten me? ❜

❛ I came to make peace with you. Even though you're the father of lies. I want things to be as they were. ❜

❛ Why do you say such things? ❜

❛ I promise I'll get rid of the bodies. ❜

❛ We forgive each other then? ❜

❛ Good night, sweet prince. May flights of devils wing you to your rest. ❜

❛ Should we burn him? Bury him? What would he have liked? ❜

❛ You've been a very, very naughty little girl. ❜

❛ We deserve your vengeance. ❜

❛ For what could the damned really have to say to the damned? ❜

❛ There are no vampires in Transylvania? No Count Dracula? ❜

❛ I've searched the world for an immortal and this is what I find! ❜

❛ No one will harm you. I won't allow it. ❜

❛ Vampires who pretend to be humans pretending to be vampires. How avant-garde. ❜

❛ Do you know what it means to be loved by Death? ❜

❛ You die when you kill. You feel you deserve to die and you stint on nothing. ❜

❛ But perhaps...this is the only real evil left. ❜

❛ I know nothing of God. Or the Devil. I have never seen a vision, nor learned a secret that would damn or save my soul. ❜

❛ You fear too much. So much you make me fear. ❜

❛ There is but one crime among us vampires here. It is the crime that means death to any vampire: To kill your own kind. ❜

❛ Danger holds you to me. ❜

❛ Love holds you to me. ❜

❛ You would leave me for [name] if he beckoned you. ❜

❛ Is that what I should do? Let you go? ❜

❛ If you want to save her, send her away! ❜

❛ The world changes. We do not. Therein lies the irony that finally kills us. ❜

❛ I need you to make contact with this age. ❜

❛ A vampire with a human soul. An immortal with a mortal's passion. ❜

❛ You are beautiful, my friend. [name] must have wept when he made you. ❜

❛ I knew him. Knew him well enough not to mourn his passing. ❜

❛ Your evil is that you cannot be evil! And I shall suffer for it no longer! ❜

❛ I haven't tears enough for what you've done to me! ❜

❛ Oh, God! I love you still! That's the torment of it! ❜

❛ Who'll care for me, my love, my dark angel, when you are gone? ❜

❛ Bear me no ill will, my love. We are now even. ❜

❛ What has died is the last breath in me that was human. ❜

❛ Your only company will be your screams. ❜

❛ Maybe it was to quench those tears forever that I took such revenge. ❜

❛ You can teach me this? To be without regret? ❜

❛ What if all I have is my suffering? My regret? ❜

❛ I know you regret nothing. You feel nothing. If that's all I have left to learn, I can do that on my own. ❜

❛ You've come home to me then? ❜

❛ I'm a spirit of preternatural flesh. Detached. Unchangeable. Empty. ❜

❛ That's it? No, it can't end like that. ❜

❛ What I wouldn't give to be like you, to have your power, to have seen the things you have seen. ❜

❛ You want a companion. You want a link to the outside world. That's me. Take me.❜

❛ Do you like this? Do you like being food for the immortals? Do you like dying? ❜

❛ I assume I need no introduction. ❜

❛ Still whining. Heard enough? I've had to listen to that for centuries. ❜

send me an ask that starts "Write me a starter where..." & a plot idea for our muses.

there's no guarantee this will result in receiver writing a starter, but it helps to get plot gears moving! (reverse meme)

"But do you understand it?" His words may be a shade too close to insubordination, though it does not break his verbal stride. Leaning forward, broad hands flat against the surface of his desk, he looks Noctis in the eyes. He's earned this. He's stood in the Citadel longer than some kings had even ruled.

He should know.

"You're thousands of miles away, deep behind enemy lines. Word comes in. Something terrible has befallen the King." He should be so lucky. The Astrals should make his job so easy. "Suddenly, the only source of our power stands on the frontlines with us, assuming the transfer of such power is... instantaneous. If not, then our last hope is surrounded by depowered Glaives trying to keep pace with the Empire's forces."

He takes up papers again, voice low, almost comforting.

"You help us best here, Noctis.We know our power is secure so long as you are here to defend it, if the worst comes to pass."

He picks up a pen, finds it slowly dripping ink against his fingers. He thinks of Noctis' grandfather. And he says nothing. A quiet admission finds its way to his tongue instead instead, "Even if you would prefer not to think of such things."

"Noctis."

Noctis resisted the urge to let out a sigh. How many times had he told Drautos not to call him that? How many times had he insisted that just Noctis was fine? It wasn't just him, of course. Cor and Clarus were sticklers for formality and even Ignis sometimes fell back into the old habit of using his title.

"Of course I do."

Everybody knew where they got their magic. Some of the cruelest Crownsguard would often remind them that their magic was on loan from his father, but what difference did it make? Magic was nothing without the skill to use it. He had a lot of respect and admiration for Drautos and his men.

"But wouldn't it make sense to have someone with a direct connection to the crystal out there? Obviously my father can't go, but me? I could help. Even if I'm just on the sidelines providing support. Even if I'm just making potions, I can help. Let me help."

#chosenbythecrystal #drautostbt

[eclipsecrowned]

me abso-fucking-lutely writing that drautos killed mors. absolutely. he had to prove his convictions to the empire somehow, even as a potentially problematically young would-be soldier. he was aiming three for three on killing kings of l*cis, and he hit that target more than he missed.

#i actually have had stray namedrop this on past lore of 'AND PEOPLE STILL THINK GRAMPS DIED OF A SUDDEN ILLNESS.' #'THE PRESS CAN BE WHATEVER PEOPLE WITH POWER WANT IT TO BE.' #'WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED HE SCALED BACK THE WALL AND GOT ASSASSINATED FOR IT--'
