Hellooooooo~!!! Can I request a Tsu'tey fic?

Where he is doing his things until he hears a lovely melody being played, he follows and sees human reader playing a kalimba! Thanks in advance! XD

In case you don't know what it is, its an instrument played with your thumbs and makes lovely tunes.

Demon Music

A/N: hope you enjoy it this was a real head scratcher like always I love writing ✍️ your requests 💙🩵💙🩵💙🩵

Pairing: Tsu’tey × Fem! Human! Reader

Word count: 510

[Requests Open]

Master list

Rules

Tsu’tey sat in the roots of an old tree, finally finding a moment for himself. fixing his weapons making new arrows he heard an odd sound . He stayed still listening to it. It sounded like someone playing around with an instrument, soon the short bursts of sounds turned into a melody. The sound was beautiful, it sounded so familiar and yet so different. Soon the melody stopped. Tsu’tey ears folded in disappointment. He stayed still in hopes it would start again.

You sat by the river playing around with your kalimba not far from the human outpost. You played around with different notes before settling to play one of your favorite song’s . You played a few more songs before you heard a twig snap. Immediately your head snapped up looking around you except to find Jake. Definitely not expecting another Na’vi and least of all Tsu’tey. You sat there frozen like a deer caught in headlights. You finally came to and finally reacted to him greeting him. “ I see you, Olo’eyktan “ he simply looked at you, not returning the greeting. “ Was it you who created that music demon? “ Tsu’tey asked, looking at you with his usual scowl . “ y-yea i was the one playing the music “ you answered with your heart in your throat. What Tsu’tey did next completely shocked you, Tsu’tey crouched down next to you looking at the kalimba . You silently offered it to him so he could take a closer look at it . He took it looking at it pressing the tabs that each played a different note. He handed it back to you. You took it back but didn’t know what exactly to do next. Tsu’tey simply stayed next to you not saying a word, you eventually decided to go back to playing some songs. Tsu’tey stayed a while longer listening to you play before leaving without a word.

Over the next few weeks this became a regular event. If Tsu'tey was around and heard you playing he would simply come and listen to you play. One day you decided to talk to him, finally gaining the courage to. That day Tsu’tey joined you, you asked him. you stopped playing after a song “ uh .. would you like to learn how to play “you offered. After not hearing anything you turned your gaze up to him he looked like he was taking a moment to think about it before he reluctantly nodded. “ Alright, you’ll have to learn mine. I don't have a Na’vi size one, “ you told him.

There were a few moments of silence before Tsu’tey spoke “ the music is very similar to some of our own . I didn’t expect that from demon music… it’s interesting it has a calmness to it “. after getting over the shock that he was actually trying to have a conversation with you, you answered “ yea that’s one of the reasons I enjoy it.. , it’s actually a very old instrument over three thousand years old “ you shifted closer to him bringing the kalimba in front of him showing him the different keys.

little love

summary: the three times you acted like a couple and the one time he made it official. (best friends to lovers)

pairing: chad meeks martin x fem!reader

a/n: omg i hit 510 followers and i’m so grateful to all of you!! thanks for even reading what i write <3

-the first time-

being best friends with chad since childhood meant being attached to the hip twenty-four/seven. your friendship was weird to most because of the fact that it was normal to call each other pet names or hug for a little too long but you guys weren’t dating.

“honey! c’mere for a quick second,” chad calls you over from across the room. you smiled hearing his voice and walked over to the reclining chair sam brought that he was currently sat on.

“everything okay?” he looks up at you with his big brown eyes, smiling softly he nodded and grabbed your hand to hold.

“yeah, i just missed you.”

“baby, i was right over there in the kitchen.”

“i can’t miss my favorite girl,” chad tugs your arm to get you to sit on his lap. you laughed and wrapped your arms around his neck.

mindy let out an exaggerated gag sound and rolled her eyes. “bleh, you guys are so gross. like get a room already.”

“mindy, i don’t want to hear it from you. you and anika do the exact same thing!”

“yeah whatever.”

“she just jealous because anika is in class right now. don’t listen to her my love,” the boy whispered in your ear while giving your hip a squeeze and nuzzling into your neck to place a delicate kiss.

-the second time-

you were having the worst day ever. first, your coffee had spilled all over your shirt before it was time to leave for class. having no time to change, you rushed out with a wet shirt. then, your professor called you out in class to answer a question because you were so spaced out. it was embarrassing and you shrunk into your seat for the rest of the class. to top it all off, someone had bumped into you and it made all your papers fly out your hands causing you to chase them around.

overwhelmed with stress, you ran back to your shared apartment with sam and tara to cry in the comfort of your room. you slammed your room door shut and immediately flopped on your bed.

a knock on the door halted your sobs. you tried to contain them by biting down on your bottom lip but it didn’t stop the fast tears.

“hey sweetheart? can i come in?”

“yes,” you whispered loud enough for him to hear. chad opens to door to find you curled up into a ball making him frown.

“baby what’s wrong?” he sits on your bed waiting for you to explain to him. you sit up a little and tell him all about your shitty day. as you were explaining, more tears fell against your cheeks but chad was quick to wipe them away.

“i wish i could restart the whole day over.”

chad pulls you into his lap like he does all the time and embraces you into a hug. you cling to him by wrapping your legs around his waist and arms around his shoulders.

“i got you darling,” he rubs your back and sways the two of you side to side. his presence already making you feel better about your terrible day. chad’s arms were warm and he smelled of the expensive cologne you helped him pick out.

“you feeling better yet?” you lifted your head up from his neck and nodded. leaning forward, you placed a kiss to his cheek.

“you always know how to make me feel better. i don’t know what i’d do without you.”

“i don’t know what’d i do without you either love,” he kisses your hairline and then your cheek making you smile.

“you wanna get ice cream? i know you like to eat ice cream when you’re sad.”

-the third time-

blackmore university decided to host a charity fundraiser gala. everyone had to dress up because it was a black tie event. the charity they were sponsoring was a kids charity. raising money to make sure kids got toys for christmas.

you were dressed in a deep red floor length gown that had an open back. this was one of your favorite charity events because it evolved helping children and giving them an experience that they would enjoy.

“y/n! hurry up and also chad is here,” you hear tara call out for you.

“i’m coming right now!” you put on your last earring and grabbed your bag before heading out your room. chad swore his heart stopped and started again when you walked out.

“woah, you look absolutely beautiful.” the boy’s tie matching your dress color.

“you look handsome baby,” you walked up to him and linked your hand with his.

“okay, let’s go guys!” anika cheered and rushed everyone out to head to the building it was held in.

the event was a success. your school raising enough money to reach pass their goal. chad guides you to the dance floor when the music got slower. you could hear your heart beat faster in your ears.

“did i tell you that you’re beautiful?”

“only five times today but whose counting?”you chuckled lightly at chad putting his head down bashfully.

“but it’s okay because i-“

chad leans down to capture your lips with his own. you gasped at the sudden movement but it didn’t stop you from kissing back. he pulls you more into him as if you could get any closer to his body. the kiss was gentle and warm, something you didn’t want to stop but chad was the first to pull away.

“my pretty girl.”

-making things official-

the two of you didn’t talk about the kiss since it happened almost two weeks ago. you were starting to get nervous that he thought it was a mistake but you didn’t want to be the first one to bring it up. there was no hiding that you were madly in love with you.

“hey babe, can we talk?”

“what’s on your mind?”

“i want to make us official. we already acted like we were dating but it’d be nice to give it a proper title,” you sit up from your lying position and rested on your elbows.

“are you saying what i think you’re saying?”

“what? that i’m in love with you and want to make you my girlfriend? then yes, i’m saying what you think i’m saying,” he smirks at you waiting for your response. you squealed and dragged him into a hug.

“i love you too! i’ve been nervous that you would think our kiss was mistake.”

“nothing with you will ever be a mistake.”

🚨 TOP TEN ANCIENT MEDITERRANEAN (Hellenic) POTTERY SHAPES (and their best in show) 🚨

A lot of these are going to be from Athens. This isn’t because Athens is the best polis at pottery, but because most of the surviving material culture from Greek antiquity was found in Athens. This is just the facts of classics, deal with it.

10. The Oinochoe ⭐️⭐️

This is just a pitcher. A boring boring pitcher used to pour wine. It could have been so much more. where’s the flare? I have nothing left to say.

Best in show: Wtf is he doin with that hog? Wheelbarrow racing? Just kidding, this is actually Herakles defeating that boar and bringing it to Athena. which is cool but its still just a fucking pitcher. (~510 BCE Athens)

9. The Alabastron ⭐️⭐️⭐️

It’s a little vial/jug that holds oils and perfumes. BORING. Do more, be better. Alabastra are the type of vase that wouldn’t stand a chance in a fist fight. I need a bad bitch piece of pottery and this shit isn't cutting it.

Best in show: This Etruscan alabastron. She’s cute! I too like to paint little cats. (620-590 BCE, Corinth)

8. The Amphora ⭐️⭐️⭐️

She’s tried and true. She’s a classic. She’s basic as hell. Amphorai have many uses but mainly they’re just glorified modern kitchen Pyrex. They just contain shit. Grains? ✔️ Oil? ✔️ Human Ashes? ✔️ Multipurpose icon, but it’s also the only pottery type with its own emoji 🏺 so she’s too mainstream for my taste. All my homies appreciate the amphora, but it’s never gonna be top 5.

Best in show: Exekias’ pot of mythic warriors Achilles and Ajax playing a lil game. How fun! I love a game night. (~540 BCE Athens)

7. The Stamnos ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

The amphora’s cooler cousin. stamnoi are bad bitches all around. They’re stouter and are made to hold liquids like water and wine (and sometimes as diluting vessels.) They have the same powerful vibe as amphorai but they’re more underground, you’ve probably never heard of them before.

Best in show: Listen. Is she a little flawed? Yes. Is she serving cunt? Kinda. This stamnos depicts Dionysus and his maenads and satyrs! Rad as hell. (370–360 BCE Etruscan)

6. The Volute Krater ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

Kraters are wine mixing pots where water is added to super concentrated wines to make them actually drinkable. Kraters have many different styles but the best of them is the Volute Krater - just like a normal krater, but with fancier handles. They’ve got a very classic look I think, I’d want to hang out with one they seem like they have really expensive and classy tastes. The sugar mommy of ancient pottery.

Best in show: What a pretty mother fucker. (~320 BCE Etruscan).

5. The Lebes Gamikos ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

So... This one is really weird looking and also really pretty. Has maybe the least practical lid I’ve ever seen but who can even blame it when it looks that pretty? A lebes would have been used as a cooking pot. A COOKING POT. CAN YOU IMAGINE WHIPPING THIS BITCH OUT TO MAKE MAC AND CHEESE????

Best in show: TO COOK WITH??????????? It’s got Eros on it and a smaller decorative lebes as the handle. So extra and for what? (350 - 325 BCE Apulia.)

4. The Loutrophorus ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

These guys are tall and skinny and potters liked to go ham on the handles. They were ceremonial vases that held water. They’re just really impressive. I mean just look at it. Potters and Painters got to go crazy on these things because they were only really used for big and important rituals and events so they could be as fancy and special as they wanted.

Best in show: I mean,,,, come on folks. This piece has the head of a woman on the lid and each side is decorated with tons of gods and goddesses. It is ornate, it was expensive, it is a fucking queen. (330 BCE)

3. The Kylix ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

Perhaps a little over rated but definitely not as overhyped as the amphora, the kylix is a wide shallow pot used for sippin’ on drinks in super style. They have painted eyes and when you drink from them the eyes become part of your face and the handles look like ears. This is life changing information. These bitches are big and dramatic, much like me. They were really popular in Mycenean Greece (before the dark ages that birthed the classical Hellenic period we all know and love -- the ancient Greece of ancient Greece) which just screams Scorpio energy; how mysterious and cool of them. These baddies have art not just on the outside, but the inside too!

Best in show: Reminds me of that crazy look anime characters get when they’re about to go off the rails (~510 BCE Athens.) a second less cool kylix is also pictured to show you what they would look like when you drank from them. Hilarious.

2. The Pyxis ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Pyxides are the unsung hero of ancient pottery. Most pottery charts will not feature them. But Pyxides are a girl’s best friend.

The pyxis serves as a little jewelry box, a little box for all your trinkets, a little makeup kit. This is the fun type of versatility (👀🏺 get good amphora) These little guys sit on your ancient vanity and open up from the top with a fun shaped handle. Because they were made for women we get a lot of cool insights on women’s lives (and a lot of wedding stuff) in antiquity from these little guys!

Best in show: THIS pyxis depicting a bride preparing for her wedding. Outside she takes a little bath with Eros (winged god of love who later becomes our modern Cupid) and inside he sits on her lap. Talk about a wing man! (~410 BCE Athens.)

1. The Kantharos ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you don’t think a kantharos could steal your girl you’re wrong. These bitches have everything you could ever look for. They’re smaller drinking cups that were most likely used for rituals due to how crazy ornate most of them are. Some of them are even molded to look like heads, that is simultaneously really badass and also very unserious!!

Best(s) in show: A classic ornate kantharos with silver plating depicting the death of Orpheus and the kidnapping of Helen. Look at how fucking GORGEOUS it is (~415 BC.) And a head kantharos (also called a janiform kantharos as they have two faces!) of a satyr and a woman. Imagine drinking from this I would feel so powerful (420 B.C. Athens.)

Akutagawa with 19 and 12?

Dinner surprise

ʚїɞ Akutagawa Ryuunosuke x Reader

ʚїɞ Keep in mind English is not my first language, so you may find mistakes!

ʚїɞ The event

ʚїɞ word count: 510

ʚїɞ Tw’s: None! Just pure fluff, reader’s gender is not specified in any way

ʚїɞ Per event rules, there's only one prompt per ask, so I hope you don't mind I went with 12!

If there's one place that no one would expect Akutagawa Ryuunosuke in, it would be in the kitchen, helping with, or even making food himself.

Currently, he could be seen in front of a counter, cutting up a few vegetables for dinner, while you could be seen in front of the stove, in charge of the things already starting to cook. Gin would usually help but she got a surprise mission therefore she’s out.

Just after the water started to boil in one of the pots, you remembered you had to add one specific spice, it’s barely used in the Akutagawa household, meaning the siblings decided to put it into a cupboard placed high up, way too high to reach without a small ladder, at least for you. Maybe someone over 190cm (6’2 I believe) could barely reach it, so never mind you doing so. Why do they even have a cupboard that high?

There is a small ladder in their house for things like that, the problem is that you aren’t sure where it is since it’s always moved around by Gin. Ryuu really has to stop putting things in higher places just to spite her about height.

“Hey Ryuu, can you watch the food on the stove while I go look for the mini ladder?”

“Sure, but why do you need the ladder?”

After he agreed, you started walking towards the kitchen entrance. “I need to get [spice] to add to dinner but it’s too high to reach so imma be back in a minute or two.”

Finding the ladder took in fact, way longer than you anticipated, as it took over 10 minutes. You really wonder why in hell it was in Gin’s room but if you were to bet, your oh-so-lovely boyfriend decided to put something of hers on a higher shelf out of spite. You really can’t explain the love-hate sibling relationship, but oh well.

When you got back to the kitchen, you found out your search was useless upon noticing the spice you needed ready on the counter. It’s obvious to you why and how.

“You really couldn’t do that while I was in the kitchen?”

“Didn’t feel like doing so”

You're well aware that he can just grab stuff with Rashomon, but completely forgot about it earlier.

…You’re fighting the urge to grab one of the pans on the stove to hit him across the head. Affectionately, of course.

“Don’t stare at me like that.” Seems he can feel the glare. Good.

“How about no?”

“What-”

A surprise peck on the cheek when he was turning around to face you. It was enough to crash this man like a computer for good 2 minutes.

“It’s annoying that you just let me go search for the ladder for like 10 minutes even when you probably knew where it was from the start, but thank you for bringing it down for me, Ryuu.”

No answer from him, an innocent smile from you while moving away from him.

Little shit.

He should’ve let the food burn.

Frieren timeline

The only timeline available on the wiki isn’t super fleshed out with exact dates and counting backwards etc. So I decided to make my own.

Notes:

1. Spoilers for up to manga ch119 (the most recent at this time)

2. Even if it’s likely just a rough measure (“three hundred years ago”), I’m gonna assume when doing my math that it was exactly 300 years, because otherwise I can’t do most of the math

3. I skip most events that don’t have an exact year, eg Fern and Stark respective being taken in by Heiter and Eisen. I do make some estimates (eg Sein’s birthday, we only know he’s in mid-30s so he can’t have been born any further back than year xx).

4. Standardised year 0 as the year the demon king was defeated

5. Realised about 2/3rds through that I could be writing down chapter citations but at that point it was too late lol sorry

behold!

-3,000: Earliest mentioned date, by Frieren re: dwarf beliefs; most people believed the dead turn to dust, so pre-Goddess. Unclear when Goddess actually starts appearing.

[Emperor Boshaft alive, so is Milliarde, Frieren in village]

-1,000: Frieren becomes Flamme’s apprentice

-950: Flamme passes away*

-510: the last time Frieren fought a demon (quite likely Macht, as in year 80 she says 600 years ago, which would be -520. What’s a decade here and there?)

-420: Frieren restores her golden arm

-422: Aura became one of the seven sages of destruction

-322: the last time Frieren saw another elf, Grandfather Voll starts to protect village

-222: the last time Kraft saw another elf

-120: Fass finds Emperor Boshaft’s alcohol, Gehn starts working on his village’s bridge

-26: Himmel is born

-11?: Hero of the South visits Frieren and dies a year later; tells her she’ll meet Himmel soon**

-10: Hero Party sets out from capital

[Hero Party kills Immortal Bose and pushes back Aura sometime during this period]

-3: Goddess arc (Himmel is 23), Hero Party seals Qual***

0: Demon King defeated, Era Meteors, Macht starts to serve^

2: Denken born

20: Macht is braceleted

28: Continental Magic Association started (at latest), Lernen was first first-class mage

29: Denken came to Auberst with his wife (who died when he was in his twenties); Denken’s wife presumably passed away very soon after

30: last sighting of a Darkness Dragon (per random apothecary); Weis turned to gold and sealed

39: Earliest possible Sein birthday (he would be 40); humanity learns to fly

45: Wirbel born

50: 2nd Era Meteors; Himmel passes away; Aura reappears, demon activity increases in north and baby Wirbel makes promise

61: Stark is born earlier in the year after winter; Fern is born some time after harvest festival but before the last three months of the year

68: Graf Granat’s son dies in war against Aura

69: Sein’s friend Gorilla left

70: Frieren and Fern meet

74: Heiter collapses

75: Stark runs away from Eisen

76: Heiter passes away; Frieren and Fern set out on their journey

76.5: half a year spent looking for blue moonweed

77: Fern turns 16 (after spring, latest autumn)

78: 3+ Months spent at seaside town cleaning beach

79: wintered with Kraft, Stark’s 18th bday (after spring), meet Sein around harvest festival (time is a bit funky since it gets cold and then warm after this?)^^

80: El Dorado arc

81: first chapter after El Dorado. As of ch119, we are here, 31 years after Hero Himmel’s death!

and in the future…

97: Tod’s “curse” will engulf the star?

100: Next meteor shower. Fern and Stark would be 39.

149: Frieren promised to be back at hero’s sword village by this time

1079: Frieren may return to the Continental Mage Association :)

*Assuming she died soon after Frieren’s last shown convo with her where she said “it’s only been 50 years”

**Unclear just when was the Frieren/Hero of the South meeting, so it could technically be anywhere before, but -11 is the most recent it could be

***Frieren says it’s been 80 years in year 77. If she’s being precise then this is the date—but I have doubts as Qual was sealed in the Central Lands, and Hero Party should be well into the Northern Plateau near the goddess monument by this point.

^Technically I think Macht starts to serve a leetle bit before the demon king is defeated, but no time frame given for how long it took Macht and Glück to have those convos

^^To be more precise: they start the year’s winter with Kraft. Then it gets warm, and Stark’s birthday happens. Harvest festivals are usually in autumn, which is when they meet Sein, and then it gets cold enough for the gang to wear their winter gear again, and they spend a winter (or a cold snap?) with Sein. When they get to Auberst they spend an additional two months training with Fern while waiting for the exam to start. But when they finally leave Auberst in ch61, and aren’t wearing their winter clothes anymore, it’s still listed as 29 years post-Himmel death??? There’s a mention of it being because they’re in the volcanic belt… But seriously, year 79 goes on and on. I honestly think the authors just forgot to find a good spot to switch that over lol

For the Christmas event, can you write Kuai Liang for the ice skating prompt, please? :D

Ice Skating

age in bio when interacting. minors do not interact.

Word Count: 510 | Read it on AO3 | Masterlist

Author's Note: I do not write for mk1. writing is from mk11 and past.

Kuai Liang was a natural on the ice. He had ice powers all his life, and anything ice-related came naturally to him, which included skating. Whether you were good at it or not, it didn't matter. He would have no issue teaching you how to skate as well.

You sat inside the Lin Kuei temple, waiting for Kuai to come back from teaching his clan. It shouldn't be a long wait, as Kuai could teleport instead of having to walk. However, there were times that his teleporting scared you. You never knew when he'd show up. You were always faster at seeing him than he was at speaking. So he couldn't warn you that he was there.

Finally, Kuai had finished training and teleported into the bedroom. He hoped and prayed that you weren't there. He didn't like scaring you, and it was never intentional. He changed out of his clothes, showered, and walked downstairs. You smiled and moved from your seat to greet him.

“Welcome home!” You said as you wrapped your arms around him.

“Thank you.” He said as he smiled and hugged you back.

“Do you want to do anything?” You asked as you looked at him.

“I want to spend time with you however you want to.”

“How about ice skating?”

“Sure, do you know how to?”

“No.”

“It's okay; I can teach you. You should dress first, though, so you don't freeze.”

You walked away and quickly changed before joining him. He placed his hand on your shoulder, and you were both suddenly outside. There was a lake somewhere inside the Lin Kuei Gardens. You couldn't remember where it was. It didn't matter. You spent your time elsewhere. The lake looked solid and frozen. However, Kuai held his hand out and froze the lake over just to be sure.

“Alright.” He said as he stepped out onto the lake. He didn't move, but he held his hand out to you. You took it and were careful as you stepped after him. You slid, but Kuai was quick to catch you. He wasn't going to begin skating until you learned how to. He didn't want you to get hurt. He knew how painful the ice could be. He held your hands, arms, and sometimes your sides as you slowly dragged your feet across the lake. He was going to be sure that you would not fall, especially not in his presence. He helped you keep your balance and instructed you on what to do as you made your way around the lake. Once you had it down, Kuai stopped holding you as much. He let you do as you wanted and only stayed by your side in case you needed him. He stopped walking around the lake and began to slide slowly after you. If the lake began to have scuff marks or even cracks, he was quick to freeze it over to prevent anything from happening. Kuai slid and did a few twirls every now and then, but he always kept you in his sight.

So a 60 year reign + 15 years old when he pulled the sword in the stone = 75 years old grandpa. The next generation after Arthur (Mordred, Lancelot, Gawain* etc) would be 15-25 years younger than him.

So Lancelot and Arthur are different generations? How old are some of the other characters in comparison? Like Guinevere, Morgana, Morgause, Elaine of Corbenic, Galahad, etc.

Yes, it usually gets ignored in modern reinterpretations (except for things like First Knight) but Lancelot is part of Mordred's generation (who was of course young enough to be Arthur's kid in many versions).

Arthur had been aligned with King Ban (Lancelot's father) for many years with them fighting off the the rebelling kings, Saxons & co, King Rience etc before Benoic fell and Lancelot gets yoinked as a baby by the Lady of the Lake (Ninianne in OKS).

I've got a detailed timeline for major events (reigns of rulers, famous battles & invasions, deaths of major players) but I haven't bothered to nail down the exact birth dates of the Camelot characters since that's not really something that's going to come up.

It's more important what generation they belong to than anything else.

Mordred - 15 years younger than Arthur born the same year that he pulled the Sword in the Stone (460 AD - yes, it's plot relevant)

Guinevere - She was betrothed to Arthur as a kid (to secure Leodegrance's troops against the Saxons/rebelling kings/all the clusterfucks at the start of Arthur's reign) so she straddles the line between Arthur & Lancelot's generations. 10-ish years younger than Arthur.

Morgana - She's a fae, so she's old as balls. There are stories where she had a kid with Julius Caesar (who lived 100 BC – 44 BC) to give you an idea how long she's been around.

Morgause - A couple years older than Arthur. Of all the kids of Gorlois & Igraine (Morgause, Elaine, Cador), she's the only one old enough to even remember her biological father. Would've been around 18-20-ish when she met 15-year old Arthur.

Elaine of Corbenic - About five years younger than Lancelot, so that'd be around 25-30 years younger than Arthur.

Galahad - Two generations removed from Arthur. He'd be 37-45 years younger... depending where I end up putting the conclusion of the Grail Quest (sometime between 500-510 AD).

◇ characters ◇ kazuha, zhongli, xiao

◇ tags ◇ modern!au (kazuha), sweet sweet teeth rotting fluff

◇ wc ◇ 510+ | 770+ | 610+

◇ ⓘ ◇ this is a submission for @bluexiao and @anantaru’s sweet ‘n spice writing collab event (masterlist for sweet | masterlist for spice - minors dni), prompt 9 - "enjoying the view?"

◇ a/n ◇ this is my first time ever joining collab events... and it was really fun! i normally dislike having deadlines when writing, but the prompt was inspiring and this came out pretty smoothly! thank you for letting me participate in this collab! ;3 i love zhongli a normal amount as you can see from his word count compared to the others wdym

"it's too early for this..."

an airy laugh pierces through the deep fog within your mind. kazuha's hand squeezes encouragingly around yours as he continues to tug you forward, through the small patches of trees and up the small hill just behind your camp.

you really should have known that this would happen when you agreed to go camping with your boyfriend. he is, afterall, a man of nature. you think he must be some sort of a wanderer in his past life, with his sharp intuition, keen sense of direction, and amazing survival skills in the wild.

"just a little bit more, dove."

you grumble an incoherent answer, to which kazuha hums in response. with a yawn, you let him guide you to wherever it is he has in mind. your steps make a crunching sound against the grass as you both trudge forward - you dragging your feet and your company with a pep on his step. the sky is starting to brighten, and as you walk in comfortable silence, your sleepiness starts to fade.

"we're here!"

kazuha beams and plops onto the ground, before patting the grass next to him with a smile. his ruby eyes stare up at you from below and something squeezes inside your chest - it's that feeling you get when you see all the small puppies and kittens as you pass by the animal shelter.

with a fakely exaggerated annoyed huff, you sit beside him and cross your arms, eyes surveying around the area in mock disinterest.

it's a peaceful place for sure. the landscape is clearly undisturbed. the sound of birds chirping behind you, the wind blowing a gentle breeze… hm. it's not so bad, you suppose. upon realization, you drop your act and instead opt to take a deep inhale, filling your lungs with delicious fresh air.

kazuha gently places a hand on your shoulder, and he motions towards the skyline in front of you.

oh.

the sun peeks over the horizon, and for a moment you're mesmerized by the sight, the earthen smell of soil, and the feel of the warm sunlight kissing skin. is this how it feels to be 'one with the nature'? as the gentle sound of a leaf flute enters your ears, you smile fondly and tuck your knees into yourself. even without looking to your side, you already know you'll find the bright-haired boy playing his favorite instrument, eyes soft and half lidded as he basks in the tranquility of this situation.

slowly, the ball of light rises up into the sky. somewhen throughout the way, kazuha had stopped playing and had instead let you settle your head to his shoulder to watch the sunrise together.

suddenly, you hear a chuckle, and when you look up to see his pretty face, he gives you a wink.

"enjoying the view?"

you know he's teasing you for enjoying this when you were very reluctant to indulge him at first. with a defeated sigh, you place a peck on his lips and nuzzle back to his shoulder.

"you're lucky you're cute."

whenever you're around zhongli, it feels like you're in the presence of some regal being.

you remember the awestruck and momentary bemusement that crossed his expression the first time you confessed this to him. this was a while back, when you were both still new into the relationship and you were shy and hesitant to be around him as your newest status - his significant other. naturally, at this point in time, you had yet to know about his past.

but, as your relationship developed into something beautiful, as you pulled his heart of stone and wrapped your warm hands around it, grass started to grow from the dried soil's cracks. before long, you've turned the previously barren landscape into a grassy plain, with various flowers blooming and swaying gently in the winds. although you might not have realized it, zhongli felt himself thriving in your presence. and what is zhongli if not a man of virtue?

and so, he told you stories about what he was. his friends, his found family, his joys, his grievances, his regrets - and lastly, his sins. he told himself he would be prepared if you decided to reevaluate your relationship after the last few words left his lips, but the corner of his patient smile twitched when you fell into silence and your eyes avoided his gaze.

".... that's why you feel so ethereal! all these times!! i thought i was just madly in love - i mean, i am, but anyway - you're the rex lapis himself!!"

zhongli laughed. you pinched the skin of his hand in retaliation and intertwined your fingers with him, while you mumbled under your breath with a pout. you would never know the relief and joy that washed over him as he digested your response to his confession. you've turned the previously barren landscape of his six thousand years heart of rock into a field of flowers, and yet you were so oblivious to it.

it's been a while since then, but every now and then you're reminded again of his previous identity. sometimes it's just in the little things he says (whenever he talks about old history and stares off into space for a bit, you know he's reminiscing), does (whenever he turns towards you with an embarrassed look, you know he has forgotten to bring some mora again), or, nature itself seems to intend to worship him as the god that he was.

like now, for example.

walks around the plains or cliffs near liyue harbor are common occurrences for the both of you. you're not exactly a fan of it at first, finding the climbs and inexistent pathways a chore to traverse through, but there are little things that you get to do on these particular strolls that makes it worth going.

for example, while zhongli limits himself to having his hand on your back while you walk side by side inside the city, he allows you to grab and cling onto his arm. at first, it's because he sees you struggling to keep up with him, but it has become a habit, and you're certainly not going to tell him that you've developed the muscles and stamina needed to match his pace.

but nothing beats these small, precious moments you randomly encounter throughout your walks.

the sunset casts a certain glow over his form, bathing him in gold, highlighting his features. the tips of his hair and the golden ring in his eyes seem to shimmer, the light hitting him in just the right ways to make him look even more dashing than usual. it fits him so well, this color. like it exists solely for him and him only.

you're frozen on your feet, unable to move as you admire the man whom you're lucky enough to call your partner. how you had even managed to catch the attention of such a celestial being was beyond you. perhaps one day you'll wake up from this dream… but for now, you wish to enjoy this sight to the fullest.

zhongli suddenly shifts and turns towards you, and you can feel a warming sensation rising up your face when you realize he has caught you staring.

there's a twinkle within his amber eyes and something coy in his gentle curve of a smile as he observes your dazed expression. his lips move and the baritone voice you adore so much envelops you whole. your heart threatens to burst out of your chest when you register his words in your entranced brain.

"enjoying the view?"

you release a breath you didn't know you held.

"....... mm."

truly, a divine sight.

"enjoying the view?"

you hum nonchalantly, not even fazed by the sudden presence and voice behind you. eyes still staring at the nightscape of dihua marsh and the stone gate that stands behind it.

xiao continues to stand behind you, his expression impassive, a small frown between his eyebrows. you glance up at him with a patient smile before shifting towards the opposite side from where he's standing, making a space for him to keep you company.

"you can sit with me, you know?"

only after having your explicit permission did the yaksha dare to move. his polearm fades into the cooling night air, and his warm form lands beside you, a comforting existence that makes you relax even more.

you inhale deeply and stretch your arms up along with your legs, pleasantly sighing when you hear your joints crack. instead of crossing them back into their original position, this time you scoot towards the edge of the roof, planning to let them dangle off the sides. but as soon as you move towards the rim, a gloved hand shoots forward to grab your arm.

"you'll fall," he warns, like a mother scolding her child when she finds them eating a forbidden snack.

"i won't," you chuckle and grab his hand, tugging him along, "and even if i do, you'll catch me, won't you?"

"of course," he says without any pause whatsoever, but the scowl is permanent in his voice, "still, you shouldn't do something so dangerous."

"aw, please? indulge me?" you turn back to give him a pleading pout and a pair of puppy eyes.

xiao sighs, and you grin unabashedly when his stern facade cracks. he shifts forward with you, and lets one of his own legs dangle off the roof, while the other tucks onto his chest and acts as a prop for his free arm. you bump his shin with your foot lightly, to which he retaliates with a warning pinch on your triceps. noticing that he still hasn't moved his hand from the previous position, you use your other hand to pry his fingers off, only to link your hands together.

you squeeze once - is this okay?

the adeptus pauses. and you feel him squeeze twice - okay.

with a smile, you refocus on appreciating the scenery. you can hear the faint sounds of the inn's guests and workers talking in the background over supper, along with the soft firewood crackling down in the kitchen. the moon is high and bright in the sky. there are no clouds in sight, and the cooling breeze is gently blowing around you.

how serene.

you turn towards your lover, lips open and a question hanging at the tip of your tongue, but it vanishes into nothingness when your eyes land on the mesmerizing silhouette of your beloved.

the moon illuminates his pale skin perfectly, casting shadows in the right places and painting the enthralling sight into a mysterious ambiance. his yellow-colored catlike eyes gleam brightly under the stars as he stares forward, ever as vigilant as his namesake. though you understand that all adeptis have some sort of divine aura, at this very moment, you think xiao has never looked so otherworldly. so out of reach.

... and yet, such a being had vowed you his love and protection.

belatedly, you close your slackened jaw and feel them automatically convert into a smile as the yaksha abruptly turns towards you, bashful and nervous at your prolonged attention.

"what? why are you looking at me like that?"

"oh, don't worry about it," your lovesick grin widens, "i'm just enjoying the view."

you smile at the growing blush on his cheeks and fall in love all over again.

Please picture me, in the trees (Marc Spector x reader)

Prompt: tree house.

Warnings: Canon Child abuse mentioned, Canon Death mentioned,

Words: 510

Marc was always fond of going over to her house. Her mom was always nice, Her dad was funny, they had the best snacks, but more than anything it was her tree house. The place where they could be themselves, or not. They could be anyone, do anything, nothing else mattered. At seven years old, if they brought enough snacks and their water bottles they could spend the whole day in the tree house. Playing, talking, coloring in coloring books. Being kids. One fine afternoon they were coloring in the tree as they chatted.

“My favorite color is probably…green” She says with a smile, answering Marc’s question

“I like red.” Marc says with a smile.

Things changed as time passed, and after Randall died. At ten years old they did a lot less playing and a lot more talking. Sitting up in the tree house for hours, just talking about anything and everything. One day Marc climbs up into the tree house, curling up in a ball in the corner. It wasn’t long until she came to join him, putting an arm around him as they sat in the corner of the one room tree house, decorated with faded coloring book pages.

“I could ask my mom if you can stay the night.” She says as she rests her head on his shoulder. “I wish you could stay forever. Never have to go back.”

“Yeah…Me too.” Marc mutters

When they were teenagers, they still spent a lot of time in the tree house. They didn’t spend nearly as much time talking. His lips on hers, her hands around his neck as he pushed her against the wall, his one arm over her the other around her waist as they hold onto each other, like nothing else in the world matters. Marc pulls away from the kiss breathless, looking into her eyes.

“Don’t go.” She mutters.

“I have to. If I don’t…”

“She’ll just get worse…I know.” She sighs. “I wish…I wish I could have kept you...forever.” Marc feels his heart tighten at the idea.

“I know…I wish it was different.”

It would be years before they would see each other again. The tree house long gone, but the love that blossomed there was timeless. This time they met at the airport, Marc visiting home for the first time in a while. His eyes scan the crowd for the familiar face. When he sees her he smiles. When she sees him she starts running to him. They embrace as Marc holds her close for the first time in years.

“Hey you.” He laughs

“Hey you? That’s all you have to say after going all MIA on me?” She playfully punches him.

“Well, Yeah. What else am I supposed to say?”

“What about ‘Sorry for disappearing on you, please oh please forgive me my transgressions?’” She teased. He laughs

“I missed you.” He kissed her forehead.

Maybe the Tree house is gone, and maybe they aren’t kids anymore. But He never felt more at home than when he was in her arms.

01x01 ♾️ 10x10

YEARS...

TOWL

First off, I loved episode one, and I hope you all enjoyed it too.

I very much believe the title is linked to Beth - The one who lives.

I mentioned in previous posts that we would be heading back to repeat season 1 of the walking dead. We got many callbacks in episode 1 of TOWL. Such as Rick stepping into Merle's role of being handcuffed because he is "difficult."

Like Merle, Rick has to chop his own hand off to escape.

The callbacks are quite detailed. If you remember back, Merle was horrible to T-dog, refusing to take any direction from him because of his skin colour. He almost kills T-dog and wants to become the leader of the group, which leads to Rick handcuffing him.

Whereas to contrast, Rick wants to escape the CRM to get back to Michonne, whom he loves.

Rick also doesn't desire power in the CRM at all and even says so to Okafor.

Rick, in season one, is also looking for Lori his wife.

Merle and Daryl (the brothers) are separated.

It's a beautiful rework of that time around the rooftop scene in Atlanta...

The exciting thing about all this is that Andrea was first introduced just prior to Merle (Daryl's brother) being handcuffed on that rooftop.

They are reversing and reworking season one and season 5 scenes combined (I'll get to the season 5 patterns soon), so Beth (a reworked Andrea) is close...

We even saw Rick's own version of a Brulent (burner) walker that leads to cauterization...

I talk about the cauterization theme at length here from DD1.

The cauterization theme is related to walking away from God, which is interesting with Rick specifically because Rick is "walking away" from or running away from the CRM.

The CRM logo is a representation of God.

The Borromean rings have been used in different contexts to indicate strength in unity. In particular, some have used the design to symbolize the Trinity.

The end is the beginning theme ♾️

This theme reveals a major clue to the story and what they are drawing from, and that is the Revelation or revealing of Jesus Christ.

Beth's revealing is symbolic of this...

The book of Revelation is known as a book about the end of all things but also the beginning of something new.

To remind you, not that you need it, this is a show about the end of the world, and the writers are heavily incorporating biblical end time events into the show.

Jesus describes one of his characteristics in the book of Revelation, he says:

‭‭Revelation 22:13

I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

The beginning and the end theme, will eventually reveal Beth. 01x01 ♾️ 10x10 get well soon.

The symbolism around her character is used to link her symbolically to Christ, I've mentioned this many times before. As a reminder, some aspects of this are:

She dies wearing a cross.

She dies sacrificially (goes all in) to save Noah.

The bible says Noah walked with God, so God saved him from the biblical flood. In the cauterization post i linked above, i go into how 510 events when it rained and they hide in the barn (Ark) was a rework of the biblical flood.

Beth was also the only character given the symbolism of an "empty" or missing body/grave.

She was innocent and considered "good" as Daryl was trying to indicate at the "oh" moment (and yes, he was also saying he loves her 😉)

Jesus was also called good by his disciples. The real definition actually means morally perfect, so while back in Alone the writers were using the "good people theme" to indicate someone that hasn't become out-rightly evil in these evil times, with Beth, it was just one more way of linking her symbolically to Jesus as morally perfect.

Seeing what Rick has experienced with the CRM is a shadow of Beth.

Now let's talk about how season 5 Grady has been reworked.

While we are back in season 1, they are also showing us Rick's version of being at Grady.

Dawn is Thorne, and yes, we're rhyming names now it's becoming that obvious.

Rick (Beth) and Thorne (Dawn) play a game of Poker, and Rick goes all in... Thorne folds.

Thorne tells Rick she's great at poker, but she loses.

Dawn also liked to play poker... Poker is about holding the right cards, having the upper hand, and even bluffing your way to a win.

Remember the hostage trade at Grady? They focused a large amount of time on the numbers of cops to trade with Dawn.

Daryl says to Rick, "3s better than 2" talking about the 3 cops they have to trade back for Beth and Carol. 3 cops gives them the winning hand...

Now, in poker, that's a true statement. All you need to win is a better hand than your opponent.

Well...in fact Dawn and Beth were playing poker in that hallway at Grady.

Beth made the choice to go all in like Rick did. Dawn dies (folds)

It's a big risk to go all in, but the pay-off can be huge. Dawn got nothing in the end.

While Beth is the one who lives and survives a bullet to the forehead. This is actually confirmed in this episode twice, so read on.

A shadow of this is shown with Rick...

In the very next scene after the poker game where Thorne (Dawn) folds, we see Rick hold the bullet right to his forehead. It's not a coincidence...

In that defining moment, you'll make the right choice...

Beth made the right choice.

Beth won and it was lights out for Dawn before she even got to play... just like Thorne said...

Confirming the poker theme and bullet graze theme.

This combination is actually reinforced as it's mentioned in sequence twice in this episode.

Rick and Thorne both sign up to the CRM, and Okafor asks them to work secretly for him. Afterwards, Thorne talks with Rick, and Rick asks her if she gave Okafor the scar on his forehead (a shadow of Beth's scar)

It's then she admits to shooting Okafor in the head, but the bullet just grazed him, she missed. Rick then asks if she will shoot him, too...

Then, she stops and seemingly very randomly brings up the topic of playing poker. But it's not random at all.

It's a reworked reverse shadow of what happened at Grady.

Bullet graze to the head, missed didn't make the kill but it did leave a scar, poker and lights out for Thorne/Dawn. All while Rick (Beth) asks if she will shoot him too.

And all while Rick (Beth) is trapped in the CRM (Grady) away from the love of his life.

Thorne also gives us more hints that she is a new version of Dawn back at Grady. She thinks the system of the CRM is working fine and it doesn't need to change.

Rick disagrees as no one is free to leave.

Beth kept telling Dawn that she wasn't staying any longer than they made her. She wasn't free to leave either, and Dawn told her she shouldn't see it as a sentence. That out there, she would be dead.

This whole rework also gives us insight into Beth's mindset. Just as Rick was trying to escape to get to someone he loves, so was Beth trying to get back to Daryl.

The A's and B's - a repeat of Grady only taking in the ones who they thought were weak. In Beth's case, they got it wrong, she thought for herself, which classified her a an A.

They thought she was a B but she was an A

The man i was with, is he here?

They thought Daryl was an A and same with Noah's Dad so they left them out in the world to die.

Okafor, Thorne and Rick are a reworked version of Beth, Dawn and Noah.

The repeats in this story should give hope that Beth survived that bullet and just like the end of this episode with Rick and Michonne, the story will eventually lead to two people who love each other reuniting. One of whom thought the other died but could never find the body...

When and where was Thranduil born?

There are no canon sources that give an exact (or even estimated) date or place of birth for Thranduil. Based on what we know of his history however, my personal guesstimate is that he was born towards the end of the Long Peace, a period of almost 200 years during the First Age when there was a temporary pause in the Wars of Beleriand.

Thranduil’s father Oropher was one of the Sindarin Elves of Doriath, possibly a kinsman of Thingol and perhaps even of Celeborn and/or Amdir. Therefore, Thranduil was very likely to have been born and grown up in Doriath.

Assuming he was born in the Year of the Sun (First Age) 452, how would he compare in age to other major figures born around that time? The timeline, with some (canon) confirmed and some approximate years of birth, as well as a few key historical events, looks like this:

FIRST AGE: YEARS OF THE TREES

Y.T. 1169: Feanor

Approx. Y.T. 1190-1260: Maedhros

Approx Y.T. 1190-1362: Maglor

Approx. Y.T. 1200: Luthien

Y.T. 1300: Turgon and Finrod

Y.T. 1362: Galadriel

Before Y.T. 1495 (approx. 1445?): Celebrimbor

Y.T. 1450: The Silmarils are made.

Y.T. 1495: Flight of the Noldor begins.

Y.T. 1500: End of the Years of the Trees.

FIRST AGE: YEARS OF THE SUN

Y.S. 260: Start of the Long Peace.

Approx Y.S. 440: Gil-galad

(Headcanon) Y.S. 452 - Thranduil

Y.S. 455: End of the Long Peace.

Y.S. 470: Dior

Y.S. 471: Tuor

Y.S. 503: Elwing and Eärendil

Y.S. 505: Doriath is destroyed in the Second Kinslaying.

Y.S. 510: Fall of Gondolin.

Y.S. 532: Elrond and Elros

Y.S. 545 to 587: The War of Wrath.

Y.S. 590: End of the Years of the Sun.

Based on the above timeline, we can make the following assumptions regarding Thrandiul’s life history:

He is 590 years younger than Galadriel, only 12 years younger than Gil-galad, and 80 years older than Elrond.

As an elf-child of noble rank, he probably would have spent time with/around Queen Melian and Luthien, as well as Dior and Nimloth.

He was 53 years old--barely a full-grown elf--when Doriath was attacked and destroyed. He witnessed the kinslaying, lost his home and became a refugee.

He was 93 years old when the War of Wrath started, and 135 years old when it ended. His early adulthood was mired in horrific war, death, and destruction. The extent of his participation in the wars is up to fandom speculation.

He was 138 years old at the end of the First Age, which would make him 6,520 at the Battle of Five Armies and 6,598 during the Quest of the Ring.

He definitely aged well, don’t you think?

Said It First

pairing: hhh!jimin x f. reader

genre: established realtionship, fluff, [18+]

summary: The first "I love you."

wc: 510

a/n: original

date: February 19, 2024

Jimin smiled as he pulled you closer. You had been having an amazing time at his side.

The two of you had gone out to dinner and now you were enjoying a drink on the rooftop.

Couples mingled and laughter filled the air in all directions. A dancefloor sat in the middle and Jimin had taken you there for a dance or two.

The night is winding down, the moon shines bright overhead and you place your head on his shoulder as he holds you tight.

You've been dating for a few months, your heart races at the sight of him. He means the world to you and lately you've been wanting to tell him that you love him but it seems the words get stuck in your throat every time he looks at you with his sweet piercing gaze.

You sway to the music, his warm hands on your waist and you inhale the scent of the cologne that drives you crazy. You love everything about him, you could make a list and it would never end.

However, fear looms in the back of your mind. You wonder if you're rushing, if there's a better time to tell him. If you should make it a grand event and all your overthinking keeps you from saying anything at all. You don't think he'd reject you. You're unsure why he hasn't said anything but maybe he's having some fears as well.

The last thing you wanted was to rush anything.

"What's on your mind, Doll?" Jimin asks gently as the song comes to an end.

You smile, kissing his cheek.

"Nothing," you lie. "Don't worry about it."

Jimin eyes you warily but nods as you take his hand and lead him off the dancefloor.

He wraps himself around you when you reach the railing around the rooftop. The stars shine brightly and the warm breeze makes you melt into Jimin.

You lace your fingers with his, gently swaying to the next song in your corner as Jimin kisses your neck.

"I love you," he murmurs against your neck and you stop dancing.

"What?"

"I said, I love you, Doll," Jimin repeats as he locks his gaze on yours. You blink.

"I love you," you say in response. "I was going to say it first."

Jimin chuckles, shaking his head. "Well, I beat you to it. I said it first."

"Jimin!" you whine and he cackles as he wraps you up in his arms, kissing your forehead, your cheeks, nose and finally your lips.

"I love you! I love you! I love you!" you exclaim as you cup his cheeks in your hands, kissing each of them and his nose before planting a kiss to his lips.

"I'll never grow tired of hearing it," he admits with a bright grin that rivals the stars.

"Be prepared to hear it for the rest of our lives," you tell him, kissing him one more time as he holds you close.

He's ready to spend the rest of his life with you at his side.
