If they have kids with platoria?

I assume you mean this one prompt thing? If so absolutely! (Don't mind me making this pretty it's cause I'll most likely be pinning it) ૮₍ ˃ ⤙ ˂ ₎ა𓎩♨

/) /)

(｡•ㅅ•｡)〝₎₎ Basics! ✦₊ ˊ˗

. .╭∪─∪────────── ✦ ⁺.

. .┊ ◟﹫ Name: Chiffon * ੈ ♡🍮 ⸝⸝🪐 ༘ ⋆

. .┊﹒𐐪 Gender: Female

. .┊ꜝꜝ﹒General Appearance : Chiffon is an American Curl kitten, her coat is a soft blend of palish-blondes and whites; ginger and rosy markings speckle her fur, creating a warm colored coat reminiscent of a sunrise. She has longer waves of fur around her arms and legs that appear to dance with every movement. Her ears are rounded giving her a perpetually and curious look. She wears a blue (occasionally pink) pastel Chiffon fabric bow ribbon instead of a collar, and a smaller ribbon of a complementary color around her fluffy tail. 

For in-show reference however, her design is inspired by pre-US Tour 6 and early Hamburg chorus Jennyanydots. I made a little moodboard If that helps :3

. .┊ ⨳゛Personality: Chiffon is an imaginative kitten who enjoys the simpler things in life. If you don’t find her socializing with any of the other kittens or eagerly helping her parents with their daily tasks, she’s most likely off trying to come up with a new ribbon dance routine. But her creativity isn’t limited to dance; she loves playing make-believe and finding articles around the junkyard that she can make fashionable. She is observant and tends to pick up on cues from her environment quickly; like her mother, she values empathy, leading her to be more mindful of the emotions of those around her. Even though she gives off the impression of being confident, she is highly sensitive to criticism and conflicts, which she frequently responds to poorly, making her feel like she's being backed into a corner. Her sensitivity, however, finds a good balance with her playful and inherently easygoing nature towards life.

. .┊ ◟ヾ Special Talents: Her Talent is ribbon dancing, which Plato and especially Victoria were happy to see her take interest in; her routines were normally quite whimsical and fun. Despite lacking technique while she was still young, she made up for in her boundless energy when performing for her parents. However, she does eventually grow to have exceptional precision and expertise in ribbon dancing.

. .┊﹒𐐪 Who they like better : It really depends on the moment. Chiffon throws around the word "favorite" depending on the day, not fully understanding its significance, normally while she's snuggling up to one of her parents. Plato and Victoria don't take it too seriously, but they do like to play-fight about who's the favorite whenever Chiffon throws around that word since it does make Chiffon happy. Regardless, they both know they're Chiffon's favorite adults in the yard, and that's plenty enough.

. .┊ ◟﹫ Who they take more after : Visually, I'd like to say a good blend of both, but since Victoria is pure white, she generally appears more like Plato, with her ginger mane and heavier markings around her coat, but her white and rose-colored markings and the careful way she carries herself make it clear she's Victoria's.

But in terms of personality, she inherits a good amount from both of them. Plato's easygoing nature and protective instincts did influence Chiffon's more empathetic demeanor, particularly when she interacts with others. From Victoria, she did inherit her innocence (which isn't as noticeable when she's young but becomes more apparent when she's older) along with her innate attraction to dance that differs from the typical jellicle, and of course the way she moves when simply walking or interacting with others is similar to Victoria's own gracefulness. 

. .┊ ◟ৎ Personal Head canon: Well, any head canon I have about her just becomes canon regardless, but she really didn't adjust well to collars, much like her father; whenever she had one on, she kept tugging at it and needed long breaks of not wearing it. This didn't go on for too long, as Plato and Victoria realized she wasn't adjusting to collars comfortably, so Victoria chose an alternative, ribbons. there were plenty of spares around the junkyard, so each morning Victoria would groom her and ask her to select the ribbon she wanted for the day and tied it around her neck securely. Chiffon did enjoy this, and the spare ribbons did end up sparking her interest in ribbon dancing.

. .┊ ⋆𐙚₊˚ Face claim: Lisbeth Brittain!

I was going to reblog that prompt but then I realized I only had one "finished" kitten fankid so this is perfect! Thank you SM!!

#I'm doing these so out of order sorry #But yea talking about Chiffon outside of to myself was fun #Cats oc #Chiffon #Platoria #fanchild #Plato #Victoria #thanks again for the ask!! #seriously though I need to draw her she's very precious to me #Sorry if I wrote too much- this is technically my first time introducing her properly so It felt appropriate #Side tangent but I did design Chiffon with the intent of her being interchangeable #so she's both a Platoria kitten and a Vic x Rump kitten. (so basically #Plator!@/t3@zer depending on what I ship at the moment) Lore-wise #she's biologically Victoria and Plato's daughter but Rumpleteazer raises her along-side them in like a “cool-aunt” way if we're looking at #she even names Chiffon! Since Vic and Plato were stuck for a name for about three days. (Don't mind me censoring tags I just don't want it #popping up when ppl were looking for something else*)but yes I love chiffon very much

^ star trek ask game

Thank you for the asks! 💛🖖💙🖖❤️

One storyline/plot point that you hate from your favourite ST.

My favorite ST (and the only one I've watched, so far) is TOS, so literally anything with the Klingons. Y'all know why. Also, The Omega Glory and The Paradise Syndrome. Again, y'all know why. (The racism, xenophobia, and nationalism, in case that wasn't clear)

If the holodeck was real, what would be the first thing you'd use it for?

Hmmm well, I don't know a lot about the holodeck, but assuming it can create simulations... I'd use it to take a beach day in a tropical climate. Holy shit, I need a vacation of some sort.

Favourite ST fic you've read.

I can't pic one, lmfao. And if you asked me again in a few days or even a few hours, I'd probably give you different ones because that's the way my brain works. But right now:

I ADORED If You Need Me, by cgf_kat. It gave me a lot of fucking feelings. One of my favorite things to both write and read in fics are scenarios where a character is dealing with trauma, but the emphasis is on the support they receive, and this fic accomplishes it beautifully. I also really enjoyed Held, by the same author. It's in a similar vein, but is K/S rather than gen, and a one-shot. Both fics also gave me a lot of feelings about chronic pain.

My Love is Bigger than Your Love, by @gunstreet Awesome "fake-engagement" fic with a twist. Love love love love how the S'chn T'gia family dysfunction is written in this, especially in regard to Amanda. (I am very much not an Amanda apologist).

I could keep going, but I'm going to force myself to stop.

Has Star Trek had a personal impact on you?

Yepppp. It has in a lot of ways. I'm at a point in my life and career where emotional intelligence is really fucking important, so I've have to make it a priority. Spock as a character has helped me grapple with my own emotional repression, especially his characterization in the TOS movies, after he's accepted his emotions are a part of him. "Logic is the beginning of wisdom, Valeris, not the end." Okay, damn. Also, Spock's lines, "If there are self-made purgatories, then we all have to live in them. Mine can be no worse than someone else's," live rent free in my brain. They've helped a lot in dismantling my own, self-made purgatory.

You're literally what I wish I could be. When I came across your tumblr I thought you only did fanart but then I found out that you wrote fanfiction as well and I was like "Um, hello? A fanart artist AND a fanfiction writer? Sign me the fuck up!"

Seriously, I wish I could draw as well as you!

Well thank you for the compliment! Ngl I love when people find out I can do both, its highly entertaining and definitely a source of good vibes for me <3 I'm sure if you draw every single day you'll be as good as me, probably even better. Have a fantastical day mate!

#knox rambles #asks #bilbogirl1 #whats the thing i told myself the other day uhhh put wishing into working and something soemthing #eh i'll workshop that #Thanks again for the ask!! #and hey if you're drawing and writing you're already both at once so i'd say you're doing pretty great

for the fic asks: beneath the mistletoe screaming - questions 4, 5, & 9 💕 

Hi babe thanks for playing! And omg beneath the mistletoe screaming was so fun to write I'm so happy you picked this one

4 - What's your favorite line of dialogue?

Oh man there's so many! There's not much dialogue in this piece as a whole but since I have to choose, I'm quite fond of Wayne's comment to Eddie where he says "Maybe all this Santa business is good for you, kid. Seems to have turned you into one jolly son of a bitch."

5 - What part was hardest to write?

Probably the scene with Jason since I had already written that part in detail in the first part of the series. It was kind of difficult to portray the same scene from a different point of view without repeating all of the same dialogue, so I had really think to come up with whatever insights Eddie would have about it.

9 - Were there any alternate versions of this fic?

Not so much alternate versions as different parts of the same story told from different POVs. The first part in the series (mentioned above) is thrilling christmas, trembling fear, which is from Jason's pov (for those of you that haven't read them) and I haven't started it yet I don't think BUT I *am* planning on writing a third installation from Chrissy's pov about her joining the Munsons for dinner.

Send me an ask about my fics!

hello arda! I saw you are an actual real life librarian (which maybe I should have realized earlier since you always reblog certified librarian posts) and I had a question! a while ago I was discouraged from checking out ebooks and audiobooks from my library using Libby because apparently they have to pay a royalty on each checkout? does this have a big impact on libraries?

Hi!! Thank you for the ask and for giving me something to do yesterday! It was super quiet at work and reading about Libby was more productive than staring into space thinking about your meow meow in training hehe.

[also I say librarian as shorthand for library assistant, I'm not a *librarian* librarian, one who Knows Stuff, my contributions are Knows the Alphabet (probably) and Is Under 40 (definitely)]

Also sorry I'm long winded, I can't not say something once I've thought it.

As a patron I can relate, I heard the same thing on tumblr and felt bad. But I asked a coworker about it, and she said since we get Libby along with a group of other libraries, we just pay a set fee a year - no matter how much our patrons use it, it'll be the same cost for us. She gets audiobooks all the time and has no qualms about it!

I saw on OverDrive's website (parent company I think, and the old app name) that there are multiple lending models which vary by publisher - some are pay-per-use, some you buy a license for a certain time or number of checkouts. The library can tailor the collection to their needs and choose how many titles someone can have out at once. With hoopla (similar service we do pay for directly), we set limits to downloads so we know it won't cost more than $x per patron per month. Any digital services would be budgeted for (probably, should be).

Maybe we're in the minority, but our library has adequate funding so we're happy to offer these things, and it makes us happy when people use our services. My coworker and I who do stats love to see the numbers go up like STONKS (coworker would not say that tho. again, only one under 40 here).

Some thoughts I've seen online (not from my own knowledge or experience) are it sounds like for some libraries, funding is very much tied to usage, so using Libby more could lead to more money going toward it, or to the library in general.

I also saw a comment about how it's not any different from using a public park or public school, and the people who use it do pay for it one way or another through taxes, or a yearly fee for a card, or something like that.

Anyway there's a bunch of thoughts which may or may not help or be related to your particular library. They'd probably be happy to tell you about it though! (especially if it's a slow day it's like please give me something to do)

TL;DR I'd guess if they're offering the service, they've budgeted for it. It's their job to decide if they can afford it and to set their own limits, and patrons have no way of knowing the costs/usage and are not obligated to worry about it. If you were in my system, I'd say to borrow anything you like!

[itsybitsybatsyspider]

hey might be socially dubious to ask after something mentioned in tags by a non-mutual, but that's your fault for burying this lead in tags on my post - please tell me what this Superman AU you have that the show reminds you of

bestie oh my god so glad you asked gimme a minute

So it's a Superman au for Detroit: Become Human, which in case you don't know what that is, is a branching-narrative videogame about androids that develop emotions and try to gain rights. You play from the rotating perspective of three characters: -Connor, The Android Detective who tries to stop the revolution -Markus, the one in charge of the revolution -Kara, an android who wants to keep her found family/pseudo-daughter safe and tries to ditch the country

It's a pretty interesting game with a LOT of different endings and i quite enjoy it! So as i do with all of my blorbos and hyperfixations, I tried to fit them into aus that give my brain that dopamine release.

Hence, the Superman D:BH Au. A crack idea turned serious and now that My Adventures with Superman came out, it made me think about it again! The vibes of the show are the vibes i thought of when i came up with the au, and that's what made me think of it!

honestly though, thank you for the ask, im always glad to talk about my AUs as niche as they can be sometimes!! And if you want, i drew some art for it as well below the cut.

Kryptonian AI Chloe designs

And the Connor as Superman redesign!

#Thanks again for the ask!! #i know my aus can be pretty niche but i've had fun working on this one #a lot of brainrot from it #i am totally normal about my Superman DBH au #connor dbh #chloe dbh #dbh #asks #my adventures with superman #dc

For the scar ask game, 9, 13, and 2 for the B'rshtie?

!!!!! thank u iverestie!!!!

2 is there a scar they don't like to talk about?

nope! brshs only scars are the ones on her face, and she's quite comfortable talking abt them

9 do they have any funny story related to one or more of their scars?

not a funny story exactly, but if she focuses hard enough, she can make her eye which was damaged by light aether glow rather intensely. she does this in dark rooms to annoy people on purpose.

13 did they ever come up with some absurd story about their scars?

*technically*, she got the scar on the bridge of her nose in a fight with imperials where she was severely outmatched and also barely knew how to wield a spear, but she acts like she fought off a bunch before having to be rescued

5, 6, 13 for fandom asks!!!

hiii thank you for the ask!!😋

5: omg when i tell you i ADORE janis and damian…..stobin coded i say,, i wanna invite them into my house and bake them cookies. the soft warm chewy kind

6: honestly any ronance headcanon is immediately my favorite. also this one i thought of at like. late night: nancy tried to teach robin how to use guns/defend herself in some way at one point but immediately gave up when robin nearly shot herself in the foot. there’s probably already one like that somewhere but🤷‍♀️

13: uhhhh i definitely wanna say hsmtmts cause i was in that fandom since like 2020….it was a wild 3 years im not gonna lie

it’s either that or warriors (the cat one)(as just a consumer though i never actually made anything in that one)

✄ + ♫ (for Resting Place)

Thank you for the ask friend! I especially had a lot of fun putting the playlist together - I hope you enjoy it!

✄ what’s your editing process?

My process is a bit different depending on if the fic is stand alone or a multi-chapter. For stand-alones, I tend to leave them alone for a while after I’ve finished the first draft to give it some time to sit and create some distance. This could be anything from a week or several months - depends on the fic! Then I’ll just go in and fix up stylistic things and grammar/spelling issues, I’ll change any dialogue or phrasing if I need to. I don’t often need to do major rewrites on oneshots, but sometimes I do if they’re long enough! If it’s a multi chapter, I’ll only go back end edit a chapter once I’ve written a few more in advance. That way, I’ll know if I need to do any major rewrites in case something in an earlier chapter contradicts what’s said/written later.

♫ send a fic and i’ll make a 3-5 song playlist for you - Resting Place

Soft Universe, AURORA (I think this song captures both the gentleness and the slight darkness of the fic - it’s about finding comfort and softness with someone else, but there’s still a vague threat of something lingering)

Into the Night, Julee Cruise (It’s about searching for a lover in the darkness, in the night, which is kind of what Deanna does in this fic - she seeks Tasha’s comfort, but only in the dark when they can rest. Also slight warning that there’s kind of a ‘jump scare’ near the end of this one - it suddenly gets really loud out of nowhere around the 3.27 mark)

This Unrest, Siouxsie and the Banshees (I think this song captures the way Deanna feels about all the thoughts and emotions of other people in her head, plus it has similar dark/violent imagery as in the fic)

I’d Like to Walk Around in Your Mind Someday, Vashti Bunyan (not so much connected to the fic specifically, but this is the ultimate Troisha anthem to me, so I had to include it regardless)

6, 11, 12, 25 for matthew !! <3

Thanks so much for the ask!!

6. What’s something you have in common with this character?

Oh, wow... Well, I suppose we both love reading! He’s a little shy, and a bit awkward (especially in S1) so that’s another. He also has a tendency to deny things and sulk about it, even when it’s right in front of him – “as plain as the nose on your face,” as Isobel would say. Sometimes he simply doesn’t face things head on. That is something I have also done (although I’m more aware of it now and try not to do it). And we both love Mary and Isobel :D

11. Would you date this character?

Oh my goodness, YES. Yes yes yes.

12. What’s a headcanon you have for this character?

I have one that he and Reginald and Isobel were a very happy little family in Manchester. They’d go on picnics and things and Matthew would love playing with his train set in front of the fireplace while his parents sat and chatted with him and each other. And that Reginald or Isobel read him bedtime stories when he was little, and their house was filled with books, so he grew to love reading.

Another that in the S3CS, he refuses to leave Mary’s side in the hospital until Isobel/a nurse firmly tells him to leave in the evening. He stays with his wife and baby for a long time with his arms around them and kissing them and being all fatherly and sweet and loving!! And they go on to have more children (he is a wonderful father, naturally) and he eventually becomes the eighth Earl of Grantham. He finds it difficult to get used to the position at first, not least because he feels like a trespasser, like he doesn’t belong in this role and wonders how he’ll ever be able to fill Robert’s shoes. But he also knows that he can get through anything as long as Mary’s with him. And he passes away in his sleep in 1972, aged 86 🥲🥹🥹

25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now?

I honestly didn’t notice Matthew AT ALL in the first couple of episodes. My first impression of him was... “Huh, okay, so this guy’s the new heir, REALLY awkward, and just got burned big time by Lady Mary.” I was kind of indifferent to him for the entirety of S1!

Oh, and now.... I ADORE HIM. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. He is the kindest, sweetest, well-meaningest, nicest gentleman on the show. And he is so adorable and handsome and gentlemanly and clever and respectful and unassuming and unpresumptuous and decent.... I could keep going on about how amazing he is :D Suffice it to say he is now my favourite character on DA alongside Mary.

Breakfast Confessions for the WIP Game!!

[WIP Tag Game]

Thank you for the ask Sun!! (And thank you for your patience with me getting to it!!)

General content warning for age gap ship and Master/Padawan relationship :)

This fic is the oldest in my active WIP pile - it's from 2020! It's actually almost finished and everything, but then I stopped writing outside of those bangs I did a while back, and then I stopped writing for a while altogether, and then when I came back to writing I did not come back to this, even though I had already made a post about it being posted soon and all... and long story short, my writing style has now changed so much I'm thinking of just rewriting the whole damn thing anyway!

This is a 5+1; five times Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Qui-Gon try and fail to confess their feelings for each other, plus the one time they manage to! Each time, there's always something that gets in the way, ranging from one simply being called to a Council meeting all the way up to the whole entire Clone Wars happening around them, but they always just say to themselves, there's always next time. The time it finally happens is during an early breakfast morning!

And I guess I lied in the main post for this game because looking through this document there isn't very many lines that I don't want to utterly rewrite, so I may just have to get back to you on that snippet!!

#tag game #thanks again for the ask!! #and thanks for tagging me in this game omg this was super fun!!

[angstenthusiast]

Hello! I have some questions about the Stone Blue AU:

Does Chris look 'normal' in the afterlife? Like does he look like he did before he died? Or does he look like a ghost\spirit; or does he still have the wounds from his death?

Just curious lol

Hi! Thank you so much for the question!! :D

Yes, I would say that Chris looks normal in his afterlife! He doesn't sustain any of his injuries or carry any wounds from his death until he's brought back to life, at which point he's left with a large scar where he had gotten impaled by a stalactite shortly before passing. In his afterlife, he looks pretty much exactly as he did when he was alive, not ghostly or see-through, or really anything of the sort.

In this universe, after dying, as stated in a separate post, a person will go to an afterlife specifically tailored to them and their interests in life to help give them a proper resting place to spend the rest of their eternity. They aren't really able to interact with other people unless they were particularly close with them in life, at which point their afterlives will become connected, and they will be able to visit each other whenever they'd like.

No other people to interact with until sometime in the distant future when his brother or friends finally kick the bucket means that he's gonna be completely alone for a long time. And no living people to look much more dead than since he's not really acting as a ghost in this au either, so there probably wouldn't be much reason for him or any other dead person to look all ghostly when there's no one else there to cause him to notice the difference.

Hope this answers your question!! I hope you have an amazing day!! 👋

[reality-shifting]

one last thing I was curious about. How did it mentally/emotionally feel in the void?

the first word that comes to mind is “empty” and i know that that often has negative connotations when used in a context of feelings, but i mean it in a very positive way. it was a very peaceful, calming experience for me. it was like getting a break from everything, if that makes sense. my cr currently is kinda stressful, but when i was in the void state all of those worries and that stress was just gone, like it didn’t matter to me anymore. i just felt completely calm and at ease. it was very silent.

as i mentioned in one of my previous posts about this, i usually think a lot and i can’t really normally get my thoughts to be quiet because there is just always SOMETHING on my mind, but when i was in that state, my mind basically calmed down. i was able to just exist in silence and that was for me personally also very nice. it was kinda freeing to only think when i actively “wanted” to think something (idk if that phrasing makes sense, i hope its understandable).

honestly it just felt very nice and relaxing. i feel really lucky that i was able to reach it :)

😅 What's a story or scene you've created that you're a smidge embarrassed exists?

🤡 What's a line, scene, or exchange you've written that made you laugh?

😈 Has there been a point in a story where you did something just to be playfully mean to your readers?

Thanks for the ask, my friend! :D

😅: I think that the story that I'm the most embarrassed about is probably Lacy Surprises since it was my first smut fic and I'm not too proud of it :,) We all have to start somewhere, but... I definitely can do it better-

🤡: Probably the banter between Ryou and Atem in The Exchanger :) I loved writing their conversations, it was funny :D

😈: Hmm... Maybe the cliffhanger in Infected- or the ending of the second chapter of Sinful Desires...
