into the deep end - 30k T orufrey fic, focusing on memory trauma, disability, and romance.
the sweet oblivion of the victim, the poisoned freedom of the other.
for one moment - it had felt like two parts returned - the needed reunion of two disparate halves. no more secrets, no more pain.
the moment you get to give back what you never wanted to take. that moment, under the night-blooming flowers, when they had both let out the same single broken sigh of relief.
but they were never whole to begin with, were they?
qifrey swore he wouldn't say 'sorry' to this man any more if he could help it - sorry is cheap now. he didn't want to be in a position ever again where you only have 'sorry' left. so he just looks down into the threads of his blanket, strains his eye until it hurts, feeling his insides - his throat, heart and head - burn with pain. he expects more, but olly says nothing.
olly says nothing.

new di x warrior cats
name explanations and more info below :3
basic stuff
-each agency is a clan, not each unit. 14-15 clans would be silly and then we would have some clans with 5 cats and some with 2.
-starpro -> lightclan. i couldn’t call them “starclan” for obvious reasons. light is somewhat synonymous with star, so i’m going with that.
-cospro -> nightclan. i don’t think the cats in warriors know the word “cosmic”, but cosmic implies cosmos implies night sky, so we’re going with night
-rhyth lin -> rippleclan. ripple is sort of a synonym to rhythm….? this one was hard
-new di -> fortuneclan. this one is a stretch but neither “new” or “dimension” have synonyms that really fit a clan name. fortune is something that relates to multiple characters in new di though
-starclan still sort of exists, but the cats do not believe in them the way they do in warriors. they are more of a nursery tale than anything, and select cats (ex: tatsumi) believe in them, but it is not written into their code. medicine cats can still interpret signs, but they do not necessarily think of them as coming from starclan.
-medicine cat forbidden romance is not a thing here
-intermingling of clans is ok and common
-there’s like. other cats in their clans besides just the enstars cast i assume
cat names/why i chose them
fortuneclan:
knights
-tsukasa -> scarletstar (scarletblossom) . he is the leader of fortuneclan because he is one of the new di reps for the summits. both scarlet and blossom were chosen bc of his last name (scarlet is a red color… kinda similar to cherry…. and blossom for the cherry blossom).
-leo -> lionheart. ok this one is kind of cheating because lionheart is already an existing warrior, but…come on….
-izumi -> silverspring. sora describes his color as silver, and spring is in his first name
-ritsu -> frostmoon. his first name means cold moon according to the wiki so i just rehashed it
-naru -> goldenroar. since she doesn’t like her first name i didn’t want to use “storm”, and her last name can be read as “thunder” but that’s a little too close to storm? so golden for her hair and roar for her last name
switch
-natsume -> sageeye. a sage is similar to a wizard, and eye is in his first name . also the “dovesong” mentioned is wataru :)
-tsumugi -> bluewing. he is a bluebird. warrior cats probably wouldn’t straight up call a cat “bluebird” so i put wing there instead. deputy cause he’s the vp
-sora -> skyspring . sora means sky. spring is in his last name. i could have used “stream” instead to differentiate him from sena but i think spring is cuter
mam/df
-madara -> tawnystripe . tawny bc it’s like kind of close to calico if you squint. stripe(s) is in his last name

have i already talked about alicia knowing damn well the frontera family is actually stronger and more powerful than the royal family and the only thing stopping them from being a national threat is that lloyd has zero political ambition? if i have im sorry but i need to talk about it again like imagine the frustration. like this guy who came apparently from the middle of nowhere has at his disposal what seems to be the world's most powerful knight, a fucking bone dragon that acts like a puppy around him, has made friends with elves and orcs and even dwarves, has apparently swallowed an ancient divine artifact and who keeps doing stuff that by all means should be absolutely impossible. and he just wants to chill. he doesn’t even want to work for the royal family he wants to go back to his home and live with his parents and his knight and maybe go visit his little brother sometimes. it apparently doesn’t even occur to him that he’s probably the most dangerous person on the continent and that he could probably defeat entire armies and conquer a few kingdoms if he so wanted. he just wants to relax. i would be murderous.

i have the FUNNIEST idea for an nsfw easter art special HOWEVER
it involves shrewsbury. i do not have a shrewsbury design yet
WHY is it shrewsbury. for this hella specific idea i do not know why he is the only one that appeals to me for this
i have not drawn anything like it before so it might end up looking either rlly funny or rlly gross. i dont rlly mind the former tho bc humorous nsfw art is actually so fun
im not sure if i want to share the idea just yet just bc it's a little bit more ~hardcore~ compared to what i usually do
but it's an easter special you guys can probably guess what it is like let's be real here

every time someone complains about sun imagery for Númenor and says the designers clearly didn’t read anything because why would they use the sun, I just--Men awoke in Hildórien at the rising of the Sun--
don’t act like you’re a better authority on the legendarium when you’re blatantly missing the Silmarillion reference right there

ONS chapter 134 spoilers
I was so excited this chapter, I really thought, oh! We're going to see some of Shika's backstory, I want to see why they were punished by god and sent down to Earth. Instead we get to see my fucking GUY I love Ferid, even better we see him and Crowley. Holy shit!!
We're finally explained what happened to Chess and Horn, sucks, but hey what can you do about it? At least Crow- oh NEVER FUCKING MIND. It's clear Ferid is gonna die soon too. I think within the next few chapters bc dude is crazy, and genuinely just wants to die. Again, I think! He still wants to fuck up Shika's plan so if we look at it in a optimistic way, maybe he was just sparing Crowley some pain that might go into that plan?? (coping)
Makes me so fucking sad though, I love Crowley c'mon. He was so sexy you can't do this to me 😭😭 I really hate that we didn't get any information of how he turned or why. I probably missed something, but all I got out of this was that Ferid has always been a little wrong up there.
Especially because he's still taking Crowley's dead body with him, so I can only assume he'll either need it for a plan, or he's just 🥥 and is taking him around because he's used to having him around.
Sometimes I feel I have to reread this constantly so I can put my two braincells together and try and predict what's gonna happen, but half the shit that happens is so not something people can come up with. Bc be fr who in the world could have theorized "look, we have to go back in time with the dinosaurs and we'll actually find out Mika and Yuu souls switched bodies when Shika wasn't looking so they can find a way to save him which is why Yuu is actually Mika and Mika is actually Yuu but they're still using their Mika and Yuu identity rather than the original" oh yes this is something I thought of before it came out, because clearly this is the answer. What everything has been leading up to, so true!
That being said, I still like it but it's like... Be serious, I'm not gonna spend too much thinking power on the sillies. Hopefully we can still get more info about Crowley via Ferid because IT'S ABOUT TIME that we got something about him and Ferid.
