Shipping Status / Availability

Most people love shipping, right? Here's a quick summary of each muse and their interests! All ships are built on chemistry and while I don't mind you saying you'd be interested upfront, I will not force any muse into a situation that doesn't suit them. The muse ultimately decides what does and doesn't work. Please note that even if it isn't explicitly stated I will not ship adult muses with minors and it's a shame I have to say it.

Gaster: Although Gaster considers himself an aromantic asexual, he'd be happy to engage in such activities for the right partner and, in fact, is quite vulnerable to 'romantic' gestures. The exact type of partner he seeks is unclear, given that he's burdened by a heavy amount of trauma and anxiety and feels wrong sharing that with anyone, but he does appreciate empathetic, loving people that still know when to stand their ground against him. Given the nature of monsters, he's able and willing to carry a child for a loving partner. Shipping with a human isn't impossible but would require a great deal of development. Will not ship with: Frisk, Chara, Asriel, Sans, Papyrus Unlikely to ship with: Toriel, humans Likely to ship with: Asgore, variants of himself

Giovanni: Self-proclaimed as straight but also self-proclaimed as willing to fool around with men if it's entertaining enough. Willing to have both one-night stands and longer relationships and doesn't believe that a long-term relationship should be based solely on sexual attraction. Seems to be attracted to confident, intelligent types that are emotionally independent and respectful of Giovanni's choices and need for space. Will not ship with: Protagonists Unlikely to ship with: Members of villainous teams, including members of Team Rocket Likely to ship with: Professors, neutral parties

Surge: Straight. May participate in one-night stands but unlikely to ship long-term.

Oak: Generally unavailable as he's married.

Gaevano: ??? Probably not but I genuinely don't know.

Iroh: Straight; available, but more likely to simply goof around with the ladies rather than engage in any long-term relationship.

Ozai: Generally unavailable. Uninterested even with his canonical partner. It just doesn't end well. Arranged marriages / etc. are possible but don't expect anything other than disdain.

Weird Octopus: No.

Gemuse: Biromantic sex-repulsed asexual. He tends to be extremely skittish in regards to romantic situations (ask his primary ship partner) and shipping can be especially tricky given his job but it can work out in the right situation.

Giothornéc: Maybe?

Quentin / Major: Both are best described as demisexual but also more than willing to just fuck for the sake of it, with impressively low standards. They tend to prefer women but shipping with men isn't impossible. That being said, they're both incredibly traumatized borderline psychopaths, so ... I guess that's your choice. Will not ship with: Peter

#|| ooc | out of character #|| gaster | headcanon | can a fragment be a whole? #|| giovanni | headcanon | stubborn as the earth with goals as lofty as the sky. #|| oak | headcanon | silver fox silver knife. #|| surge | headcanon | the lightning lieutenant. #|| gaevano | headcanon | shattered and revived. #|| iroh | headcanon | proud white lotus. #|| ozai | headcanon | reborn in flame. #|| octopus | headcanon | of eldritch origin. #|| gemuse | headcanon | red eyes take warning. #|| major | headcanon | falling in line. #|| mysterio | headcanon | a world in rose tinted lenses.

~Born to live your legacy

Existing just to fill your needs, a casualty

Of this so-called family that you have turned into a travesty

But I don't intend to suffer any longer

Here's where your dominion falls apart

I'm shattering the mirror that kept me split in pieces

That stood between my mind and my heart

This is where I'll start

I'm not your pet, not another thing you own

I was not born guilty of your crimes

Your riches and your influence can't hold me anymore

I won't be possessed

Burdened by your royal test

I will not surrender

This life. Is. Mine~

Yet another art piece inspired by a RWBY song. XD This was actually a concept I've wanted to draw for some time. I just never got around to it until now after I recently listened to it again. Everyone has that one song they associate with their favorite character. Well, "This Life Is Mine" is the song I associate with Mewtwo. (This song is also like Mewtwo's big "Fuck you!" to Giovanni, hence the inspiration for this piece lol)

First of all I just wanted to thank you for letting me know your requests were open. It makes me so happy to see people still giving Ezio the love he deserves! I don’t usually go for a lot of the more cliche lover tropes but I can’t stop thinking of Childhood best friend Ezio x reader.

What comes to mind is reader and Ezio having a strained relationship prior to his family’s execution due to readers newfound romantic feelings for Ezio and his infatuation with Christina. But once Ezio’s world is flipped on its axis after the murder of his father and brothers that he would seek reader’s help and comfort as he escapes Florence and trains to become an assassin.

I think at first he would be too shaken up and focused on revenge but after a while he would come to realize that he likes the reader. Maybe he would confess then, or perhaps after he kills Uberto.

It’s up to you to decide how you want to write all of this and what format (if you choose this request at all). You definitely don’t have to use my ideas if you don’t want to either, honestly I’d just love to see any type of Ezio x childhood best friend reader content. Thank you so so much for opening requests and for reading this 💗

Speaking my language with the Ezio angst!!! I need moar 💕💔

MASTERLIST 10

You cared for Ezio so much and it hurts. Growing up close with the Auditores was filled with the happiest memories of you, Frederico, Ezio and Claudia together, welcoming Petruccio, but your feelings always ran different with Ezio.

It left you dismayed at the unrequited feelings, and you felt your heart shatter when you heard of his late escapades of getting chased out with Christina.

Yet nothing could prepare you for the tragedy that struck when you heard of what happened to Giovanni and his two sons, your closest friends. There wasn’t time to grieve as you would have liked now that targets were on you and your family’s back, and you had to leave much of what you knew behind.

Only you didn’t expect to see Ezio at the same place of refuge at the end of things. He mentions that he was able to send a final goodbye to his father (with the help of Christina) but you ignore the pangs at your heart. You mourn along with him at the loss of the life you once knew together.

Being friends of friends (or family) of Assassins come with the perks of protection, but nothing you know of is ever the same again. Getting adjusted to your new life leads to unexpectedly wielding a blade, despite the constant wounds

Still, Ezio is there to see you grow and change as you both reach your respective milestones well into adulthood.

When Leonardo comes to see you both, it’s a much needed reprieve you didn’t realize you needed. A sense of normalcy despite all the heartbreak, and you realize how much you miss Ezio’s smile whenever you laugh at each other’s jokes.

Things feel…different. Upheavals so young and facing through them together does bring you closer. You and Ezio talk of the nightmares, seeking revenge, but try not to forget the good times as well.

In his quest against those who wronged him and his family, Ezio still thinks of you. You bring a tether and one close to him who knows what he’s feeling, going through.

There was one time you swore you felt him kiss you when you fell asleep at one of the desks, but you never brought it up since

Still, you heard of the visits he had with Christina and you didn’t think it would still affect you but jealousy works in mysterious ways. The day he lost her was the day you saw something shift in him, beyond the grief and pain from before.

He’s more urgent, stringent on whenever you go on missions or gather intel, and always wants to be by your side. Even Claudia begins to notice the change in her brother

It starts to annoy you at first, Ezio always hovering around you and whenever another person (let alone man) talks to you

“Ezio, this has gone on far too long now! Why are you always hovering near me?!”

“BECAUSE I WONT LOSE ANOTHER! Not those I CARE about!”

Speechless.

You don’t have anything to retort, especially since he still has more to say

“I’ve lost more than enough in one lifetime, and I can’t lose you too. I care for you…maybe even more than that.”

You can only hug him for now, but come the next day there’s still more to say

RO's Pokémon Teams (Expanded)

Reverse ask. I will now infodump about what each pokémon teams the ROs would have. I know you answered it similarly before, but I want to do this in-depth. For additional flavor I gave everyone a pokémon that evolves by trade, which would happen in game as them trading it with MC, and a route specific pokémon.

R:

Their starter is a shiny Meowth/Persian, since it can use its payday move to generate free money, plus it was a pokémon heavily associated with the main crime organization in the anime (Team Rocket and Giovanni). R’s luck manifested by giving them a shiny, shame it is one of the worst shinies available…

Next up: Super Luck Absol, a pokémon that can sense natural disasters and tries to warn others, and is seen as a doom-bringer as a result. Reclamation R uses it to intimidate their opponents, joking that they are *both* doom-bringers. Rebellion R is much more critical of the rumors and laments their inability to stop the disasters.

Third is Murkrow. Its signature ability is Super Luck, BUT R’s would have Prankster (an ability it loses upon evolving). Prankster!Murkrow works well as a setter in competitive, which means it sets up buffs and debuffs. Reclamation R teaches it Perish Song.

Fourth is Togekiss with Serene Grace. R has been raising it since it was an egg and is very happy to abuse its ability to make their opponents flinch (essentially lose a turn).

Number five is the trade pokémon. R has a Feebas, an ugly little fish that evolves into the regal Milotic. They hardly use it and regret being unable to find anyone they trust enough to trade it back. They eventually trade it with MC as “something to remember them by” and claim Milotic looks better on MC’s team anyway.

Sixth and final pokémon on their team is route specific, although both are rock types due to R’s interest in rocks. Rebellion R gets Sableye, a pokémon that lives a quiet life in caves and eats crystals, the rumors about Sableye stealing souls would synergize well with R being framed for a crime they didn’t commit. Reclamation R would get Glimmora, a pretty flower made out of crystals… of course, said crystals are made out of poison, but R would never use them for evil, how could you even think otherwise?

E:

For a starter, E got Pawmot. Electric/Fighting pika-clone that evolves from Pawmo after walking 1000 steps alongside its trainer. This one is the most spoiled little thing.

Following that, E has a Fidough, their beloved puppy that helps them with cooking. It evolves into Dachsbun after E gets more confidence. Also, it has the Well-Baked Body ability (P hates it. Dachsbun is resistant or immune to almost everything on their team).

Third one is a Bewear, a big and fluffy friend that is ridiculously strong, to the point of accidentally killing its friends with bone-shattering hugs. Fitting with E’s power.

Fourth in line is Hitmonlee. Fighting type with a focus on legs. Fast boy. E goes on runs with it.

Their trade pokémon is a Swirlix. A cutie-patootie fairy goofball of a pokémon that they eventually trade with MC so that it can evolve and grow stronger. E keeps whatever pokémon MC trades them as a reminder to be strong.

Finally, their route specific puppies. Good Influence E gets a Boltund, a good doggie that can run for three days straight, easily break 50 mhp at top speed, and zap its enemies with electricity. Bad Influence E gets a Houndoom, a bad doggo that can give someone eternal, burning pain and chooses its leader via combat.

V:

Their starter is an Inteleon with the Sniper ability, they have been together since before V was made a soldier. To quote the dex entry: “Its nictitating membranes let it pick out foes’ weak points so it can precisely blast them with water that shoots from its fingertips at Mach 3.” This pokémon has finger guns, V has a real gun, they are perfect.

Second is a well-trained Rockruff puppy that evolves differently depending on what route V is on. Civilian V gets midday Lycanroc, an extremely loyal pup with a calm demeanor, representing V healing from the trauma and learning how to form bonds. Soldier V gets midnight Lycanroc, who will happily sustain injuries for the sake of taking down its opponent, V’s just a soldier and their life belongs to their commander, why should their pokémon be any different?

Hatterene takes number three. This pokémon’s evolutionary line HATES strong emotions, so no wonder one of them would like having a trainer as emotionless as V.

Frosmoth is next for two reasons. First, I wanted V to have an ice type since they grew up in a cold region. Second, Frosmoth is a friendship evolution and it signalizes that V is not fully emotionless.

Their trade pokémon is none other than Pumpkaboo. Its dex entry mentions that Pumpkaboo are said to be the product of areas where lost souls lingered, so odds are V has seen their fair share of Pumpkaboo and had plenty of opportunities to catch one. This trade happens fairly late in V’s path and comes with V realizing that Pumpkaboo wants to be with MC, signaling that V is becoming more aware of other people’s emotions.

Lastly, V’s route specific pokémon are either a therapy dog or the brutal pokémon. Stoutland, a dog that can keep someone warm overnight in the wintry mountains, is taken in by Civilian V, being a friendly pokémon known for rescuing people, it seems fitting that Civilian V would end up with one for support. Soldier V catches Hydreigon, a pseudo-legendary with destruction as its main goal, the perfect weapon for a soldier.

L:

Espeon is their starter. Little L was given an Eevee to keep them company, Little L got attached, and now L can be seen with an Espeon curled up on their lap while they read.

Second one is Luvdisc, because it is heart-shaped and L is a romantic.

Third down is Xatu, a pokémon that can see both the past and future. Fitting with L’s power. Also, bird!

Pidove is on their team and nobody can convince me otherwise. L, nerd that they are, struggling to dumb down their words so that their cutesy widdle pigeon buddy can understand. Pidove is friendly and sincere, and evolves into the intelligent and proud Unfezant. L wants to evolve it, but this process takes way longer than it should thanks to Pidove being their weakest pokémon and hardly seeing any combat until later in the story.

Kadabra is their trade pokémon. They spent a long time planning how they’d ask a possible future friend to trade with them so that their Kadabra could finally evolve. They end up shyly asking MC if they’d be up for a trade so that “they’d never be fully apart” due to having each other’s pokémon.

Time for their route exclusive pokémon, both psychic. Peace L gets Gardevoir, a pokémon that can see the future and is ready to summon a black whole to protect its trainer, everyone is lucky L keeps it under control. Resolve L gets Metagross, a pokémon with four brains and smart enough to rival a supercomputer, everyone better pray L doesn’t Mega Evolve it since its dex entries state, “Mega Evolution stimulated its brain. It emerged as a ruthless Pokémon that will clutch at any means of ensuring its victories.” and “When it knows it can’t win, it digs the claws on its legs into its opponent and starts the countdown to a big explosion.” Yikes.

Raven:

Their starter, Banette, is a doll that became a pokémon over its grudge of being thrown away. Sounds familiar? Raven found it roaming at night during their first week on the streets and the two have been together since.

Next up, Trubbish/Garbodor, a friend that Raven made years ago when they frequented the same dumpsters. Yes, it is sentient, poisonous garbage. Yes, Raven will cuddle it.

Bisharp takes third for being very sharp and stabby. Insanity Raven goes through the work of evolving it into Kingambit. Therapy Raven keeps it a Bisharp.

Number four is Doublade. Why have one stabby sword when they can have two? Insanity Raven keeps Doublade that way, happy to watch the twin blades slash foes to ribbons. Therapy Raven evolves it into Aegislash, deciding that more defense is worth slightly less stabbing.

Their trade pokémon is Haunter. Raven raised it fully planning on trading with MC. This pokémon is almost as clingy towards MC as Raven. Keeping up with both of them is an exercise in patience.

And finally their route specific pokémon. Insanity Raven gets Spiritomb, 108 spirits trapped into a stone as punishment for their misdeeds, with Raven often making cryptic comments about “making” a new Spiritomb. Therapy Raven, for their part, gets a Maushold to remind them of their goal to have their own family with MC.

S:

S’s starter is Sandaconda. Ground types are common in the desert and its Sand Spit ability turns out to be way more viable when their opponents aren’t used to dealing with sandstorms.

Revavroom is a must for S. A motor pokémon that canonically gets used to power up vehicles? S has built a dozen starmobiles for their Revavroom.

Cyclizar looks like a bike, of course S would have one. It is their main ride when Sandrider is not available. S makes it wear Safety Goggles to protect it from sandstorms.

Their fourth pokémon is Vanillite, because ice cream jokes. S only got it after coming to the academy, which is why it is not evolved and low level. It grows into a Vanilluxe eventually.

For their trade pokémon, S has a Rhydon. They did not originally plan to trade it, nor where they interested in evolving it further. MC is the one to suggest a trade and S ends up deciding that Rhydon is the one they should trade away.

Now, both of their path exclusive pokémon are pseudo-legendaries, because S deserves it. Speed Devil S goes for Garchomp, a land shark capable of going at speeds equal to a jet fighter plane, the perfect Ground-type for a speed devil. Troublemaker S, for their part, gets Tyranitar, an insolent mobile disaster and their best partner in crime after MC.

P:

P’s starter is obviously Blaziken. Fire/Fighting, solid ability in Speed Boost, and an overall solid starter choice. P has trained it since it was a Torchic, maxing out its speed and attack stats.

P gets Ninetales to match with their twin. P caught it as a Vulpix and was very quick to evolve it via Fire Stone.

To represent P’s interest in cooking, they get Garganacl, the rock salt pokémon. Its Purifying Salt ability makes it immune to status conditions, while its signature move, Salt Cure, helps ensure its opponent will not last long on the battlefield. P doesn’t use it much, not being used to its typing, so Garganacl often comes as a surprise to their opponents.

Annihilape takes fourth. A pokémon that got so angry that it died and came back angrier. P and their Annihilape act so similar, it is funny. Rage buddies refuse to chill until they kill one (1) shitty dad.

Their trade pokémon is Gurdurr. They insist they hate it and only traded it with MC to get rid of the damn thing. It has maxed out affection. Regardless of what MC trades back, P will act underwhelmed and mentions it will takes ages to train it up to their standards.

Path exclusive time, with two sword-themed pokémon to distance P from their father’s spears. Competition P has Ceruledge, representing their growing resentment, its dex entries state, “The fiery blades on its arms burn fiercely with the lingering resentment of a sword wielder who fell before accomplishing their goal.” and “An old set of armor steeped in grudges caused this Pokémon’s evolution. Ceruledge cuts its enemies to pieces without mercy.”. Cooperation P gets Scrappy Sirfetch’d, a chivalrous knight with a versatile movepool, which can make it a viable choice in both double and single battles.

M:

Spheal is M’s lovable starter. Their father was hoping M would dominate the battlefield with Walrein, but Spheal has refused to evolve so far. It stays small and cute on Alt M’s path. It finally evolves all the way into Walrein in Maso M’s path.

M gets Alolan Ninetales to match with their twin. They didn’t catch it and instead got it as a gift (from a relative? a suitor? who knows). Took ages for them to evolve it, even though they could have easily gotten an Ice Stone.

Their Komala is next, a pokémon that stays asleep its entire life. They are nap buddies.

Their trade pokémon is Dusclops. It evolves when traded while holding a Reaper Cloth, a nod to M’s planned use of scythes.

Path exclusives are both bangers. Maso M gets Baxcalibur, a pseudo-legendary Ice/Dragon; its signature ability, Thermal Exchange, boosts its attack when it is hit by a Fire-type move, which parallels Maso M needing to be hurt to be at their most effective. Alt M, for their part, nets Slaking, a ridiculously strong pokémon with attack and HP on par with legendaries, but held back by its Truant ability that forces it to only act every other turn; this matches M’s own strength being held back by their sleepiness and forces them to plan around it.

F:

Their starter pokémon is Serperior, a Grass-type that can stop its opponents’ movements with just a glare from its noble eyes. A smug grass snake for the smug forest royal.

Scolipede takes second. F likes to harvest its deadly poison to use in assassinations. It is a soft baby when it comes to F, though, happy to curl up at their feet while they are working.

Third is Drapion. It produces potent poison yet prefers using its physical strength to overpower foes. F’s loyal bodyguard that uses its force to intimidate anyone who might pose a threat to their trainer.

Next up is Parasect. Parastic mushrooms that take control over their host until it is nothing but an empty shell with nothing more to take. F loves their fungus zombie.

Their trade pokémon is Phantump. A child who died while lost in the forest and possessed a stump. F caught it during a rare moment of pity, they trade it with MC, claiming they got tired of babysitting. They will occasionally mention missing their Phantump, only to immediately scoff and pretend they never said that, what are you talking about?

For their route specific we have two interesting options. Royal F catches Tsareena, embodying F’s own cruel heart, with its dex entry stating, “In victory, it shows off by kicking the defeated, laughing boisterously.” Royal F loves when it does that. Peasant F gets Volcarona, a pokémon said to be the rage of the sun, a deity of fire, made to save people and pokémon from cold, and symbolic of F’s more heroic role in the Peasant path.

BONUS:

While it would be impossible to plan a whole team for MC, I believe their father would determine the available starters.

Papa Strom took MC to a military daycare center and had his kid choose from a hand-picked selection of starters. The options are:

Oshawott (Water): its final evolution, Samurott, is based off samurai. Since a Storm MC can have a katana, this seemed fitting.

Chespin (Grass): its final evolution, Chesnaught, is based off the concept of knights and armor.

Charmander (Fire): it seems fitting for a STORM MC to have a starter that can actually fly later on, not to mention how knights and dragons often appear side by side in stories.

Razor didn’t get to give his kid a pokémon. Luckily MC managed to steal one from a totally-not-fake pokémon professor that just so happened to wander on a poorly lit part of town with three starters on his belt. The options are:

Froakie (Water): ninja pokémon, perfect for a sneaky thief.

Rowlet (Grass/Flying): ghost archer with a Robin Hood theme, fitting for a more heroic Razor MC.

Tepig (Fire): its final evolution is based off a man who was assassinated by his own subordinates, foreshadowing MC’s own connection to assassins.

Dad Xero brought home a trio of pokémon he had been considering training for use in his lab. MC bonded particularly well with one of them and Xero decided to let his kid keep it. The options are:

Piplup (Water): evolves into a Water/Steel type, which is immune to poison. Having a pokémon with poison immunity is essential to many lab setting with dangerous chemicals abound.

Bulbasaur (Grass/Poison): the other side of the coin, a Grass/Poison type. Greatly useful for studying both antidotes and bio weapons.

Cyndaquil (Fire): its official category is the fire mouse pokémon, so it makes sense one would end up a lab rat.

Pops Scurra just sent a pokéball via mail one day, alongside a handful of trinkets. E’s mom may or may not have *gently* convinced him that his kid was old enough to get their own pokémom and mentioned a particular one she was sure MC would like. The options are:

Popplio (Water): a darling singer to provide musical accompaniment to MC’s performances.

Sprigatito (Grass): a magician ready to provide an enchanting performance alongside its trainer.

Scorbunny (Fire): its final evolution, Cinderace, has this tidbit on its pokédex entry, “It gets pumped up when cheered on. But if it starts showboating, it could put itself in a tough spot.” A good reminder for any performer.

desmond in the Star Wars universe 👉🏽👈🏽 instead of dying he sleeps deeply, to be woken up again thousands of years later when the device needs to be activated again. uhh earth could be in wild space, but the brotherhood could be the very distant predecessors of the jedi. it's the beginning of the clone wars, obi-wan & anakin together with the 212th and 501st lands on earth, accidentally awakens desmond in the "jedi" temple. desmond gets so productive that after he hitchhikes to the SW galaxy, he rebuilds the brotherhood, astonishes the jedi order, befriends a true Mandalorian armorer (for the hidden blades ya know), kills Palpatine, takes in clones and freed slaves as his apprentices. he changes the galaxy forever. he might even revolutionize jedi thinking and indirectly make them secede from the republic (he learned from giovanni auditore that being too involved with the governing body can compromise your order).. aaaahhhh brain vomit but i needed to share hahahah

If Desmond woke up because he needs to use the device once more, the setup could be that he doesn’t need to use it anymore because Earth is a barren wasteland. The history of the planet is shrouded in mystery but data collected by Obi-Wan, Anakin, 212th and 501st seem to imply that the inhabitants of the planet learned of the Solar Flare and that the next one would be the harshest most destruction one yet, with the capability to agitate the planet’s core. Because of that and some kind of ‘dark history of needless death’, the inhabitants decided to create ships called ‘Arks’ to leave the planet instead.

Whatever or whoever remained in the planet by the time the Arks had been completed would have already died because of the current inhabitable status of the planet that seemed more manmade, whether it was connected to the dark history or to the rapid creation of the Arks, they can’t be sure.

In this one, they bring Desmond to their ship because he would have died and they wouldn’t just turn a blind eye on that.

From there, Desmond takes the time to familiarize himself with the databanks he has access to (mainly the ones that should be accessible to the general public) and finds himself with more questions that answers.

Trying to type ‘assassin’ was useless, even typing ‘templar’ gave blank. So he was left with just reading as many as possible, thanking his Bleeds for giving him the fortitude to read so much information and retain it (special thanks to Altaïr for being such an overachieving nerd that his ‘study habits’ actually bled to Desmond).

Then we get to the parts in your idea where Desmond starts to rebuild the Brotherhood because he sees the need for the Brotherhood to exist, especially during this ‘Clone Wars’ and goes toe to toe with Jedis and their doctrines, realizing that their use of the Force can be seen as wisps in the Eagle Vision meaning he knows whenever someone is going to use the Force and how they’re going to use it. It’s actually the Jedi Council who gives Desmond the idea that maybe the Jedis are… an evolution of the Brotherhood.

No.

The evolution of the combined efforts of the Brotherhood and the Order, having no other choice but to finally work together to protect themselves and the people they care about.

Desmond supposed the only way the Brotherhood and the Order could finally achieve unity was thanks to a much greater threat.

Desmond sees the Jedi Order not as the child of the Brotherhood but a distant relative and walks away from them, forming his own Brotherhood to uphold the Creed and the tenets.

He was a relic of the past.

But it is the past that shapes the present and predicts the future.

And so Desmond Miles, the latest mentor of a long dead Brotherhood, doesn’t see how his small existence could be the small pebble thrown against a carefully crafted glass work that would shatter it and show the ugliness it tries to hide.

#i tried to make my answer more on the prologue part #like setting up the prologue from where your ideas can spring forth #i hope that would be alright :) #assassin's creed #desmond miles #ask and answer #teecup writes/has a plot #fic idea: assassin's creed #fic idea: star wars #fic idea: crossover

Tried to kick Giovanni's ankles out when he was 13

Waited premeditated until he got attacked by Rockets personally for "not leaving" and then rampaged through Mt. Moon causing incredible property and bodily damage.

attacked celadon first. He picked up a crowbar here.

And threw that crowbar in Giovannis direction as an intimidation tactic, shattering one of the alcove candles

Released Hitmonchan and wholesale attacked Silph. Hitmonchan Punched a rocket grunt through the sliding glass front door and red had Venusaur rail gun laser beam the building from the inside.

Actually intended to kill Giovanni in Silph and settled on defeating him instead. Came at him like he was GOING to kill him.

The only time he DIDN'T get aggroed was in Viridian.

He also was like I'll kill everyone here in seriousness on Pasio, irt Giovanni. He gmaxed snorlax indoors...

Imagine minding your own damn business and suddenly a red dot shows up on your hud and a teenager comes at you with a team of giant elemental carnivores and a skyscraper of a massive monster.

Addio D'Angelo's. 28th January 2024

[ parental death tw ]

A summary: Via's parents pass a week apart in California. She inherits the LA restaurant alongside her inheritance. She sells D'Angelo's to a property developer on the Hollywood strip. After some time spent with realtors in New York, and some business planning, she purchases Westside Theatre.

-

It's like reading a novel; it feels immersive, but a part of one's mind always knows that the words inciting hours of hallucinations, are fictitious. Entire lives are compiled into a few words at the top of taxation forms, and those with the pen in their hand are vampires exsanguinating the last droplets of memory from a person passed.

Via's glad to be the one with teeth here.

Dotted lines, forgotten legacies and shattered dreams are all welcomed to live and die in this room too.

There's no trick though, and the words are real. She translates it simply as: Sara and Paolo are gone. Via's signing her name, almost without consideration for the Italian's rolling in their graves. If they knew her plans; to sever her ties to LA, and allow her parents life's work be offered on a platter to the highest offer.

She has fond memories of youth in D'Angelo's. Running between tables and being doted on by regulars, and family friends. Eating pasta she did not appreciate then, but would if she cooked more than once a month. But Via has a (perhaps) broken part of her that lacks sentiment, and nostalgia comes and goes. Via's not thought about amatriciana, vitello tonnato, or iconic carbonara's that D'Angelo's become renown for in years. Decades, even.

She isn't thinking about it when she slides papers back, and speaks frankly with suits, and those telling her she's welcome to take some time before she finalises with state governments. Via has just enough respect for the situation to not laugh in their faces. The pen she is using, she takes. Pocketing it in one swift motion.

When she thanks them behind a painted smile (she tells herself, it's solemn) she's not performing for them, so it's nothing more than a simper.

As she leaves, Via's already making calls.

Somehow, it's relief to step out into the city air, because she's about to reopen doors; widen the horizons and forge the last act in her own legacy.

Giovanni, she knows, has entitlement to partial inheritance, but he's missing; unaccounted for, apparently. No address to pin him down, and if Via were kinder and less cynical she might not believe he too had long passed, and were in a gutter somewhere, to be forgotten. They'd figure it out, someday.

-

Italian's death day seems worlds away when Via has seen more paperwork, and contracts than she ever had when she were travelling the states, working in various theatres, and show businesses. A new world that now, she's settling into. D'Angelo's belonged to a shmuck wanting to gentrify the strip. Have at it, she'd said when the same stolen pen signed, and scribbled it away.

Negotiating with the bank for Westside, had required something a bit more than Via possessed. A business mind was one thing, but writing up business strategies, and presenting it had taken more than just herself. It had taken time, and conversations, more contracts. She'd had enough contacts to make it work, and enough of a bank balance to make it work, when it almost hadn't. Roping in more than enough benefactors, and performers to kickstart, and reinvent D'Angelo's old legacy, and solidify her own (maybe no longer dreaming of the walk of fame) in New York.

Westside Theatre, is all her.

And Via knows the grand re-opening, will be magical.

hallo friends!!! here's my lil goober Hamato Giovanni that i submitted into the @goobersforlife comp!

Nicknames: Van, Vanni

He is Leo's identical twin in the 2012 universe! Splinter accidentally brought home 5 turtles instead of 4 that fateful day, with Leo and Vanni having hatched out of the same egg

He is nonbinary and uses any/all pronouns (mostly uses he/him on the daily but Adores when others change it up)

Van is the medic of the group and often is found in the shadows during combat, having his brothers' backs in the form of stealth.

He wields the shuang gou (Chinese hook swords), to honour their Chinese great grandfather on their mother's side. Alongside this, he is also proficient with a bow and arrow

Van, Leo and Karai all have the same shade of amber eyes (eldest sibling things, am i right?)

His best friend is Rose Jones ( @omgselinabeckendorf's goober )

Where Leo has white wrappings, Van has black, and his mask tails are the longest out of the 5 of them

He is a very, very good liar and is often the one to get him and his brothers out of trouble (because Leo cannot lie to save his life)

He is fluent in Japanese, English and Spanish (alongside Donnie and Raph)

His favourite board game is Risk and his favourite card game is Cheat

He befriends deadly assassin Tiger Claw, almost gets his soul evaporated and gets thrown in an Arena where he starts a rebellion with the city's mutants

He isn't born with his markings (remember, he's identical to Leo), but gains them at 16 when Tiger Claw lends a part of his soul to keep Vanni's from shattering beyond repair

Want to learn more lore? Send an ask, root for my boy, and enjoy the comp! 🫶🏼

After years of knowing about it but never knowing what was actually in it, I have finally acquired a copy of the rare 2008 UK promotional book "Who is Artemis Fowl?"

I was very excited to get my hands on it, as there was the possibility of exclusive content! To lay eyes on official AF content that I’ve never seen before, in 2022? Very exciting. Join me as I explore this tiny treasure!

First, a little background info on this thing can be found at: artemis-fowl.com/the-books/artemis-fowl-book/

So, it is quite small and thin, being a free promotional item included in a magazine. It's got 64 pages, and is roughly 4x7 inches in size (11x18 cm).

The bulk of the pages are devoted to short extracts from all 6 (at the time) Artemis Fowl books. It came out before Time Paradox released; it has a little blurb at the end advertising that book as releasing soon, in August 2008.

The extracts are: Book 1: The brief prologue, plus the scene where Artemis enters Angeline's bedroom and she has the mannequin of Timmy. Book 2: The scene right near the beginning where Artemis views the ransom video message on his laptop. Book 3: The scene where Holly agrees to heal Butler. Book 4: The scene after Holly saves Artemis from the hotel missile and they talk. Book 5: The opening scene where Artemis swaps fingers. Book 6: The exchange of money for lemur between Little Arty and Kronski in the leather souk, cutting off just as Holly and Artemis go in to intervene.

There is also a short extract from the original 2007 graphic novel. It's the first few pages of the Holly intro chapter, printed in black & white.

The extracts are all well and good, but I was of course most interested in the prospect of exclusive content. And there is indeed some stuff that isn't found anywhere else!

-A multiple-choice quiz on the characteristics of the different fairy species, with some very amusing wrong answers. -A list of Artemis' top 10 heroic moments (according to Eoin, I guess?). Not sure what the point of this is. I guess it’s just to hype up Time Paradox, since it wasn’t out yet but it’s included in the list. -A bit from Matt (of AFC website fame) saying why the series is so special, interspersed with other fan testimonials. -A promo for the "2008 LAFTA Awards" that was held on the AF website(?). Lol.

But the most exciting part of this little book, in my opinion? Official illustrations from Giovanni Rigano (graphic novel guy) are included in the Time Paradox extract! There are 3 illustrations, and they're exclusive to this little book. I had no idea that this existed. We now have official art of the lovely human being known as Damon Kronski!

I am including images of the book's exclusive content for your viewing pleasure, which I've never seen shared online before (though I could be wrong). Since this book is evidently rare and elusive, I think it's important that this stuff be accessible in the public record. There's nothing mind-blowing or earth-shattering here, but I think it's still pretty neat! Now we know what's in this thing!

I will ask you again, my light. What is your name?

Silver Wata—

You try my patience, my gem. I ask you again; What. Is. Your. Name?

S-Silver… Silver Sakaki.

What was your childhood Pokémon?

Your Persian.

And your connection to the Champion of Johto and Kanto is?

And your connection to the Champion of Johto and Kanto is?

…I’m saddened, my jewel. Deeply saddened. Ready the drill.

[ There’s the sound of vague yelling and struggling against restraints. ]

THEY’LL FIND YOU! DAD’S COMING FOR ME AND YOU’LL FINALLY BE 6 FEET UNDER!

Hush, my child. This is all for your benefit.

[ The sounds of a drill start up. Silver’s panicked words aren’t clear through her screams. ]

[ There's a final crackle of electricity before the recording cuts out. ]

EPITHET ERASED ROLLER COASTER HEADCANONS!

I was kinda bored so I decided to make some roller coaster headcanons!

The Neo Trio: They all ride the roller coaster together due to Trixie convincing them to do it. Feenie is terrified and keeps crying, so Molly has to hold her hand. At the end, they’re all shaking, but they all laugh it off and Feenie admits that it was a little fun. They buy the photo from the ride and enjoy the rest of the day together.

Giovanni: Rides it with some of his minions and has a lot of fun doing it. Afterwards, he buys the photo (even if it’s hella expensive) just to show off how cool he is.

Sylvie: Just sits on the ride. He’s startled by all the sudden movements, but he never really screams. “I’m a highly trained epithet user and master of psychology, it takes more than that to horrify me.” Little do people know, he’s still shaking a little after the ride.

Indus and Mera: Indus is enjoying himself, and loves soaring through the air with his Lady Mera. Meanwhile Mera is screaming and is afraid that the movement of the ride will shatter all of her bones.

Percy and Ramsey: Percy is sitting there with a sort of blank smile, asking Ramsey if he’s enjoying himself. Ramsey is sort of screaming with delight. Percy is slightly startled by the movement, but is still enjoying riding with her pal Ramsey. (This is not a ship btw)

Zora: Is normally a little frightened by the speed, but still enjoys it. She also may or may not use her epithet to slow down time and mess around and do things you normally shouldn’t do on a roller coaster. Like sticking all your limbs outside of the cart. How dangerous.

Rick: He doesn’t even know what a roller coaster is until Pheonica explains it to him. They end up riding together and hug, scream, and cry together. Rick says that it was a delightful experience.

Naven: Does not enjoy himself at all. Not only is he terrified, he gets motion sickness and tries not to throw up. He does after the ride though. Molly, being the sweet child that she is, is there to help luckily.

Yoomtah: Overrides the roller coaster, making it going so fast that is breaks. The only time she slows down is to take selfies. Thankfully, she’s the only one on the ride.

A Furious Woman 5

Soon Don Pedro’s hands were tied. Juliana looked down on her prisoner, an expression of both contempt and triumph on her beautiful but furious face. “Please…” whimpered the dandy one more time as his female conqueror sat astride him. She laughed mirthlessly and seized the man by his bound wrists. “There is no mercy for you, scoundrel!” she exclaimed. “Never again will you betray a woman, shatter her dreams or break her heart!”

Don Pedro at last realised just how much trouble he was in was in…

tw: trauma, sexual assault

personal poetry in prose. do not recommend reading, honestly. will delete later!

the time has passed, you ran out of it. you will never be 17 again (thank god thank god thank god, i say as i mourn the fact i will never be 17 again). 

i would do anything to go back and rewrite the past, make her love me somehow, make them all care. i cared, i cared, i cared, and no one cared quite as much as i — now i’m broken and there are those who care more than i do. they spill their soul to me, and i watch them as cold indifference and pity overwhelm me. i say generic words to them, like they once said to me. they bleed and i watch. i know i cannot help. no one helped me, and i shattered like glass. i drag the glass to each new day and i stab myself on the shards. i brush my teeth and step on a broken piece. the broken piece is my own leg. i smile and i drink pear-flavoured beer and i say words of love i never quite mean, and i work, work, work so i don’t fall behind again (i’m so tired). the one thing i couldn’t stand is to be a nobody. i must make something of myself and then, maybe, the void will not be so vast and dark. 

i think about the smell of her scarf. i’ve never loved cigarettes more than when she smoked. i remember the little hairs on her neck and jaw and her little beauty marks. i was never happier then when i held her in my arms — in that moment in time, frozen forever for me to have, she is peacefully asleep on my shoulder as the bus drives on, and i feel at home. that day, she cried about a boy and i told her he wasn’t worthy of her — he wasn’t. i guess i wasn’t either.

i never had the ones i truly wanted — and i fully had the ones i didn’t truly want. i can have anybody, except the woman i call home. i am doomed to yearn. i remember her fingers on my back, and i wonder how it would feel if my first time was a loving one, instead of someone’s perverse hunger and the sinking feeling of realising i didn’t shave while prying hands touched me and i let out the saddest sounds i ever sang. there were a girl’s things in his room. i never judged her, i just wondered how she could bring herself to do it. i wore a mint green bra with white dots (it took me years to throw it away). before that, the very first time, i had a long, colorful skirt and a stomachache for weeks. i couldn’t eat. my mother told me calls from abroad are expensive. 

my mother wanted me to buy a prom dress, and i wanted to die. can i touch there, he asks? yes, i say, because why would you ask if you already did? i am on all fours on the bed and i breathe. i wonder if i’m imagining his hands because they don’t feel real. my dad asks if i’m on drugs after new year’s. i’m not, i’m just sinking, and the void is all-consuming. the years are muddled. she came to my place. she was pretty while she smoked. her hair was black as night, my very own morticia addams, like in the movies. except she was never quite mine. i was in sweden and she told me she missed me. when i returned, she barely looked at me. i told her about don giovanni. the waitress loved it. we went on a trip. the years are muddled. 

i freeze while everybody watches and he laughs. did you enjoy it that much, he asks and i have no words. he teases me when i put makeup on. when i ask an older girl if he’s the like that with her, she tells me i’m overreacting. i never mention it again. he’s my ticket away from the hell i’m in, and i don’t dare turn away. he talks to me about orgasms. i am silent. he is angry with me, and he tells me i am no longer a child, i am a woman (i’m 16, i’m 16, i’m 16 and i want to die). 

my ticket away from hell is gone. i find another one. he is better, but worse, because he’s always in my house. i didn’t ask for him. i didn’t want it. and then, after three years of him convincing me i want it, i don’t know anymore — i did show him the drawings. does it matter what i want? what does it mean to want? i have always wanted, and i never had what i so craved. i was the object of desire, but never allowed to desire — my desire is futile. what i desire, i eat and swallow and chew on, i don’t let it spill out of my treacherous mouth. she never knew i loved her. i swallow my love and desire whole and it sits in my stomach and it makes me ill. i throw up and i drink ginger tea that doesn’t help the constant nausea. i listen as he instructs me how to fuck myself.

i scream in my own personal hell. the sun lights chopin’s heroic polonaise, a triumphant cry of victory. i leave. i scream long after they’re all gone.

we never had those cheese fries and i never saw the brooklyn bridge. i feel robbed of my youth. i still crave, i still yearn.

i will never be 17 again.

Don Giovanni.

(Per queste tue manine)

Cracked skin. So dry, it bled pathetically like looking for respite.

You wanted me to see you in Collingwood.

You stake a claim on this city, as though I didn’t live 20 kilometres outside of it. Looking in, trying to see what I’ve been missing.

You were named after a carrion bird, or so you tell me. But the things you eat always still seem to have a heart beat.

Torn raw at the very seams, hands that have chafed from being scrubbed with concrete.

The day the ground shook beneath me for the very first time, your words raised around you like open palms and slow poisoning gas leaks.

Sorry I couldn’t be sad without all of the weight pushing through behind me.

Life made sure I couldn’t just hold all of this together, for some sort of devastation pageantry, to force others to perceive me.

I loved before you and that was the cause for weeks of being displeased.

I felt you, I promise, in every breath squeezed out of me. Pushed through a thinning throat, up and out, like the very world was punishing me for whatever shape your absence took that day.

Thoughts in a slow moving carousel of envy, will the rain that touched your skin salt the earth for not have seeped in? Will the wind that blew through your clothes, find itself in a prison of stasis?

Kafka once wrote, ‘you are the knife I twist inside of myself’ and I find it to be lacking. You are a deliberate injection of poison, melting muscle, rending tissue, scraping through nerves to harvest attention. You are the gasps of the dying, screeching through the dreams of the wanting. A soulless strand of pure entropy. The muse of the writers that came up with eschatology. You are the malevolence of my silent god personified in a single body, so capable in spinning harm. There should be no part of me left unimpressed with just how much I am still willing to drown.

Soft, so disgustingly soft, a dithering fool with a penchant for ignoring self-preservation. A walking, talking advertisement for hindsight dripping in revulsion. An awareness of debasing myself and still following through with it. I should rip my femur out and beat myself to death with it.

You made of a mirror of me and stepped on it to shatter the reflection. Crackles of starlight in the edges of broken faces. Pain, literal, in my chest, like death was rushing in for a mercy kill.

No time will soothe this. No hope will un-break this. No forgiveness will soften this.

Closure is an ending and a one way flight ticket.

If I return, it will be my city then.

I hope your cause of death says asphyxiation caused by ego. May every person you have ever met, pop champagne when it happens.

Rot of the human race, crude waste, may every person you see, kill a part of you for justice and avarice. It is the utilitarian way.

(Questo è il fin di chi fa mal)
