Halloween aesthetic prompts! send a number or Trick or Treat! for a random starter!

Late night stories around a campfire

Red leaves spiked with frost

Spiderwebs dotted with dewdrops

Smoke curling into the sky on the horizon

Half-frozen ponds under a cloudy sky

A cracked, spotted old mirror

Blood on the pavement

The harvest moon seen through leafless trees

Thick fog over an empty street

Wind whistling through dry branches

The smell of fresh-baked cinnamon buns

Yellow slanted eyes in the dark

Bats flying against an orange sunset

Shadows dancing around a bonfire

Thunder that rumbles in your chest

Candlelight in a derelict house

Moths gathered around a porch light

Rows of pumpkins in a field

Corn too tall and too thick to see through

Crows calling in the empty morning

Cooking s’mores over a fire

Rattling chains

Something watching just out of sight

Chanting over an open book

Police lights flashing on wet concrete

A bathroom mirror in the dark

Buried alive

Watchful eyes that follow

Growls down the hall

Hands bursting from the earth

Friday the 13th

Tree branches like claws 

Wrought iron gates

An ancient mausoleum, stone door crumbling

A familiar voice in an unfamiliar place

Things that crawl in the walls

Cobwebs in the corners 

A scream in the night 

Blood washing down the shower drain

Hot wax dripping on pentagrams

Lightning over a castle 

The rattling of chains

Torn stitches

Fire hungry for tinder

planetary aesthetics.

SUN; — Egotistical. Melted wax wings and fingers. Stretching sunburnt skin. The most generous soul. Blood in the fruit. Halos. Anger on fire. High vitality. Thunderous laughter. Is pride really a sin? Halogenic aura.

MERCURY; — Expansion of the mind. Silver-tongued. An everlasting wanderer. Polyglot. High dexterity. Handwritten letters. Innately critical. En vogue. Eyes in the trees. Hidden libraries. There’s always room for improvement.

VENUS; — In love with strangers. Iridescent waters. Love potions for your mirror. Selfless devotion. Shattering crystal. Seafoam upon sand. The golden ratio. Drowning in your own passion. Material value and high principles. Luring. Plush lips.

EARTH; —Fresh springs. Tree hugger. We can start again tomorrow. A blazing rainforest. Respects survival of the fittest. Nature’s adversity. Lazy bones. Constantly evolving. Flowers sprouting from wounds. A granite altar. Fossilised remains.

MOON; — Illusory. Silver shimmer off the ocean. Secrets and gossip. Cycles of reincarnation. Crybaby. Physically ethereal. Shared glances with a stranger. Cat eyes. Mistrusting their intuition. Fear is a prison. Ornate magic wands.

MARS; — Healthy competition. Attraction and repulsion. Magma and rubies. A blade being forged. Wrath, wrath, wrath. Malefic. Intense eye contact. Cannon fodder and fireworks. Blood floods. Copper taste on your tongue.

JUPITER; — Red robes and a suit of armor. Beacon of stability. Leader from birth. Thunderbolts and lightning. Guilty but can’t stop. Secret rich kid. Golden touch, golden tears. Innate optimist. Failure isn’t an option. Constantly reaching for more. Unfinished symphonies.

SATURN; — Traditional. Overbearing energy. A sculptor of reality. This existence is a karmic one. Has a heart; it’s just way down deep. Law, order and justice. Avoid all necessary risk. The sound of shackles clanging. Sisyphus’ struggle. Grappling with the reality of time. Self-governing.

URANUS; — Psychedelic funk music. Overflowing cups. A rebellion with skin. Looking good in photo ID. Oblivious but caring. Middle fingers in the air. Double rainbows. Icy diamond exterior. Holographic. Afraid of their own mediocrity. Pearlescent smoke.

NEPTUNE; — An elegy for the lost. Dissolving boundaries. White horses. The burden of mystical conditions. Deceptive. Escapism is their reality. A polarizing entity. Artist’s soul. Paranoia. Searching for the unseen. A siren’s swan song.

PLUTO; — Angel statues over graves. Power. The cycle of necrosis. Transformative. Unfathomable depths. An ivory tower toppling over. Screaming at the sky. Violets and irises. Eclipsed darkness. Speaks with their shadow. Sex. Death. Rebirth.

PSA - - - !!!!

Sooo. tumblr is slowly taking away the drafts/queue/followers etc tabs. Seems the blogs that got hit with that twitter looking update are getting it first. Even with that extension to fix the dash formatting.

As we all know. Those tabs are vastly important to writers on Tumblr. ESPECIALLY rpcs. Not only that, it's fucking up dash viewing. People are not seeing current posts from their mutuals anymore. But rather posts from DAYS ago. They are even taking away the follower tab, so you can no longer see who is following you or how many are.

Please, spread this around. Send in complaints into Tumblr. Cause this ain't it. It's slowly taking away the ability to rp and EVEN CONNECT with others on Tumblr. Spread it to other rpcs. Or hell. Even just communities in general.

We gotta nip this in the butt. Otherwise, tumblr will not be usable anymore. For anyone.

-Marx.

"I haven't suffered your company for even a moment, m'lord," he laughed in turn before raising a finger to tap his chin playfully, "well, there may have been one or two..."

The frown was not lost on his loyal knight and it echoed at the corner of his lips. Concern for their cloistered chaplain was not its origin, though Bryar suspected she would deserve it. Ever since his squiredom, Alethea had scolded him for the hay on his trousers or mud on his boots or flowers in his hair. Now she was espousing the virtues of fresh air to their king? The situation was truly more dire than he'd thought.

Perhaps he had spent too much time away not to have noticed sooner.

"A wonderful idea." Bryar fell into step beside, and just behind, King Osiander. His troubled expression washed away and was replaced by a puckish smirk once more. "How certain are you? Are we to bring swords or spyglasses?"

“‘Honored by my company,’” Osiander said laughingly. “Please; you would be doing me a very great favor by suffering me to join you. I’ve been keeping myself indoors so long that even Alethea has begun to remark on the importance of fresh air of late. No doubt the sky will be falling next.”

Politics always was the most insidious of their vices, in every lifetime when political power fell into their hands, and the allure of effecting real and lasting progress had proved no less irresistible to him than it was to any of those who came before. Even more so, in these ever-more fractious times. His mouth pulled into a brief, uneasy frown—but he blinked it away between one step and the next, substituting a wry smile for his own foibles.

“...Hm. That is, I’d be pleased to join you. As it happens, I intended to take Melanchthon out in any case; I had a thought to ride south along the cliffs. There's been some murmurings in the last little while about a nevermore taking up roost in Windthrow Gorge. Unsubstantiated by any serious scouting, of course—” He wasn’t quite reckless enough, these days, to ride out alone against a grimm that large. “—but there does seem to be a real bird. I suspect it might be a Tarthic condor; it isn't wholly unheard of for them to range this far south, in colder years, and they do get quite big enough to be confused for a nevermore at a distance. Unless you had some other destination in mind?”

#v; red like roses (beginnings) #oh my god i love it #Bryar's horse is Adira #she's a chestnut Friesian #she matches bryar in devotion #and pretty much just wants to be wherever he is #but she's also the horse he rides into battle so she's pretty damn hardy

flightofaqrow​:

oh, he’s so precious qrow’s jaw slacks in stupefied surprise before he shakes that off too. what small beams of light still exist between swiftly encroaching clouds break through just enough to glaze and glisten some gold over wet hair and white teeth. a damped down version of the overpowering brightness of the first time he met Tai. except this guy seemed a lot more sucker by a bandit’s standards. maybe the one streak of luck here lies in how qrow’s left that life behind.

and nah, he’d look like death either way. he carries a sliver of it in his soul, in his own name, in a malnourished body full of poison. he pulls out his flask as he settles into the soon-to-be mud beneath sopping clothes, and sips some more while he watches the man speak. he recognizes the language of hands - taught to him once before by the princess of a far northern land - though he squints awhile in recall.

he pockets his flask again, his fingers given higher demand and better purpose, “Bryar with a ‘y’” he shapes, “they call me qrow with a 'q’.”

he sighs with a half-roll of red eyes before further gestures, “trust me, i bring you neither good fortune nor good company… but i appreciate the kindness.”

well, they’re stuck, though. might as well find out if he can make use of the other’s eyes in his scouting. qrow’s a pro at making interrogation sound like chit-chat, “so what brings you out this far? how’s the travel been?”

“Qrow,” he signs back as if memorizing the name. People these days were so creative with their names. Of course it conjured images of croaking birdsong and intelligent eyes, and he couldn’t help but think the name suited him. Ragged clothes and husky voice with his shoulders hunched against more than just rain-- he deserved a respite.

“Thank you, but you can speak, if you’d like. It’s actually easier for me, believe it or not.” Bryar would laugh, more rasp of air than traditional laughter. “Apologies, sir, but I think that judgement is mine.”

Following the line of questioning back to the blade across Qrow’s shoulders, he studied him again. Nor did it escape his notice that Qrow was doing the same. Wine-dark eyes were sharp, he suspected they missed very little indeed. His hands were calloused between his rings in much the same way as Bryar’s own; however he didn’t need such close inspection to know that sword was for more than just show. It was a warriors weapon, and an intricate one at that. One that challenged his rather shabby, unkempt appearance.

“There’s no shortage of Grimm about, that’s for certain,” he said with a shrug. Leaning back against the tree that made up one wall of their fort, he smiled again. “I wish I had a better answer for you, friend, but I’m on no great journey. Just traveling for travelings sake, I suppose. Remnant is beautiful and full of stories, it would be a shame to only see the small corner you were born in. Don’t you think?”

“What about yourself? I never expected to run into anyone out here.”

@etruatcaelum said: “No need for formalities here, my friend.” 

“Right– sorry, m’lord,” Bryar let his stiff shoulders relax from their austere angle and ducked under the apology. Or maybe he was lessening the glow of the smile that lit his face. Friend, he’d said. There were great halls filled with Lords and Ladies and Dukes and Duchesses that would kill for such an honour. King Osiander was noble in more than mere title, however, and it was for that reason Bryar glowed for his comradery. 

“I was going for a ride, and would be honoured for your company-- if you’d like to join me? I could have a horse ready for you at once.”
