A Peaceful Elf

Part XXXII

A Curse Conquered

“Remember, weeks ago, when I told you not to pick me up until I asked you to?”

He angled his head with curiosity.

You sighed. “After the fight, I didn’t know where you were and I—hastily and without sense—jumped from the ledge and went looking for you and Lae’zel. Well, now, I’m paying for it. Do you…mind carrying—”

A smug grin spread from ear to ear before he lifted you easily and threw you over his shoulder. His stride brought you to the stairway in two steps.

“This is NOT what I meant!”

“Well, that’s unfortunate, isn’t it? Care to jump down?” His voice bounced off of the stone walls as he continued making his way down the stairs.

“Dammit Halsin, if the other’s see you carrying me on your shoulder like—like—”

“Like a bale of hay?” 

“YES, actually,” you bounced on his shoulder with each step. 

“Well, I suppose every warrior down there will turn green with envy, won’t they?” He cackled, “I’m not a jealous elf, but I do find it entertaining to see it in others, on occasion.”

You paused, calculating what he’d said. “Ah, so not only are you annoying, but you’re also deluded. Good to know.”

I just finished reading The Song of Achilles and I am unwell

#the song of achilles #patroclus #i was so afraid and ready to curse pyrrhus if Patroclus didnt get to be with Achilles #currently sobbing #and i knew how it waa going to end anyways!!!! #Achilles wished all greeks would die so he and Patroclus could conquer troy alone

[alexanderdistortion]

been watching hannibal and looking at posts about it and quotes and i swear to fucking GOD, like half of the things hannibal says is a fucking marriage proposal

#I've gotten here on my own. But I appreciate the company. #The mongoose I want under my house when the snakes slither by. #Achilles wished all Greeks would die so he and Patroculus could conquer Troy alone. It took divine intervention to bring them down. #There won't be any divine intervention tonight Will. #THESE BITCHES ARE GAY #IF SOMEONE SAID ANY OF THIS TO ME I'D SOB THEN KISS THEN #END OF STORY #caps lock #cw caps #cursing #cursing cw #hannibal #hannibal nbc #hannigram #murder husbands

since i'm back in a vox machina headspace, at least for now, i'm looking back at all my old unpublished fic and, a) i may actually post some of these one shots i wasn't brave enough to originally

but more importantly b) for nano 2019 i wrote like 20-30k of a vm ava's demon au, didn't finish it, don't know if i will, but would people be interested in that if i polished it up a bit?

#it's over three years old so i am a bit looking at it and going oh i can write way better now #but also it does still have some great moments and concepts in it i just never posted it bc i hate abandoning works halfway through #and i wanted this to be done or not done #but either way it's still like 30k more than you'd get otherwise so im curious if people would read it #if you're not familiar with ava's demon it's a sci fi/fantasy webcomic with gorgeous art set in the far future #with a bit of horror and themes of identity and anticapitalism #the basic premise is that in order to try and win a losing war against an all powerful galactic empire #several rulers of conquered planets developed a powerful curse - which would kill them in their existing bodies #but bind their souls to the next soul anywhere in the universe to be born #and the doubled souls in one being means great amounts of power #but the story is set 15 years after that #which means it focuses on 4 (and later 7) teenagers who've grown up with angry ghosts in their head all of whom have different motivations #and. well. everyone in vm has an associated god except percy and that's fine he's brought his own

Jon is in Crisis but don't worry. It's all about wtgfs' nerdy flirting. This ain't about him.

Jaguar (Jin/Juice)

Human vs skeleton

He got named after a boy who met him on the streets saw his patterns. Jin, being an orphan who got abandoned on the streets and helped only during only the beginning years of his orphan life, didn't have a name... Or well, never learned it at least. Maybe he had a name as a child, but he never got to hear it. Neither did Vin.

#Vin was named by Jin #Jin wanted him to prevail and be victorious a conquerer #So he named his little brother Vincent #He heard a few mothers discussing boy names for a kid while wandering the streets #Which is how he learned about the name #curseart #curse of tales #故事的魔咒 #my art #omnis athenaeum #Swapfell Orange #Sfo #Sfo jaguar #Sfo jin #Sfo juice #DelnDes #DelnDes Jin

I need to write Hitomi and Bill's friendship soon or I will die

#Hayley Writes Triangulum #I will probably die because it doesn't come in until way later but augh #I wanna write them being the most cursed besties of all time #He's her most specialest blorbo and he loves it when people show him in attention so they should NOT be in the same room together #They will eventually be in the same room together #They're basically the platonic version of the Red Flags music video #She'd make funny little edit videos of him all while he's watching over her shoulder and telling her which filters to use #She's GOING to cut off his arm one day for scientific study- #-and the only reason he's against it at all is because he will be in a very specific scenario- #-the blood loss could actually kill him for realsies #When Ford tries to warn her about Bill's trickery she's just like 'It's fine uwu If he tries anything I'll just kill him~' #Ford has no comeback to this. That's a lie; he has so many comebacks but he has no idea where to start #Although in his defense; she IS aware of how dangerous he is #But also she was raised in a two-bit circus full of weirdos and dangerous people #She knows how to handle herself around people who could potentially kill her #The perks of being a surgeon is that you become VERY acquainted with human anatomy and how it works #And what makes it STOP working #Part of the reason she gets so interested in the anatomy of the supernatural is because she already knows so much about ours #But to truly conquer any fears of the unknown #She must make it known to herself and learn everything she possibly can #ANYWAY she originally started as a Toko/Mikan mashup character as a way to fill the numbers but I've really grown attached to her as an OC #She's so sillay

oh, and while i’m on a roll, i cannot stand books saying “love conquers all” and expects the vague concept of love to do the conquering. like umm, no, there needs to be a person that’s driven by that emotion to take charge and make decisions and change things. like there needs to be action. maybe the action stems from love, sure, but there needs to be thought and energy put into it. and also they need to be a little insane about it.

#memorie.txt #YES THIS IS ABT FUCJING TBONA. EVANGLINE IS STUPID????? she would NOT survive reading house of leaves let me tell you that much #like ‘let me tell him i love him it’ll fix things.’ it won’t but thanks for trying???????? she’s such a child #this is why azure is so important to me btw. yes love conquers all #but above all else so does an insane witch boy trying to break the laws of the universe to bring his gf back to life #and then he curses them for eternity. but hey she’s alive now. and then dead again. and then alive again. love conquers all!! #((also love does not always conquer all i can tell you THAT much))

[palin-tropos]

I was also gonna say hey not all leftists look the same but then i remembered i literally have the big curly hair and round glasses look

WE ARE LEGION

#the real left unity would be when all the leftists who look like that get over their differences and conquer the world #asks #no but fr I am an anarchist far from a trot I was just cursed to kind of have his face and it has always amused me

Alrighty, part 3 of the list. These are numbers 80-71, if you've been keeping track.

Link to part 1. Link to part 2. Link to part 4. Link to part 5. Link to part 6. Link to part 7. Link to part 8. Link to part 9. Link to part 10.

80. Command & Conquer Remastered Collection

Command & Conquer's remaster was a breath of fresh air, bringing in new players to both the original Tiberian Dawn and Red Alert, which are some of the highest rated strategy games ever made. The remaster just makes it easier to play, and you can choose to go back to the older graphics too. Just really good all around.

79. SimCity 2000 Special Edition

Ah, the good old SimCity franchise, back when always-online didn't exist. I'm putting 2000 here because it takes the original formula, adds a water system and specialty buildings like schools and hospitals, more disasters, a better way of doing a budget, and adds bonds/loans for the first time. A great game, with a great Let's Play. I still call the Transit Advisor “Jim” because of it.

78. Yakuza 0

Ah, Yakuza 0. My first playing of this great series. I find myself distracted by the side stories, easily. Kiryu is an interesting character and sympathetic, never breaking his “no killing” rule (if you play him like I do, anyway). Majima is just as endearing and he's given a great backstory in this game. I still need to play the other ones, but this is a strong game to start the series with.

77. Puzzle Agent

A cross between Twin Peaks and a puzzle game? Yes, please! You have to solve a mystery of a missing foreman, and have to solve all types of puzzles to get to the bottom of it. It doesn't really get solved until Puzzle Agent 2, but Puzzle Agent 1 is slightly better, so that's why it's on the list.

76. Another World

Also known as “Out of this World” because of a soap opera of the same name, this cinematic platformer is highly regarded as one of the best. Using a checkpoint system, it's very much trial and error, trying to make sure you don't die. Or your buddy, uh... Buddy.

75. Sid Meier's Civilization IV

Civ IV is my favorite of the Civ games, simply because it was easy to get into. Its expansions are great too. It's great trying to get to Alpha Centauri, and the addition of Leonard Nimoy voicing the technologies is fantastic. It's the last of the “square-grid” Civ games too, all later mainline ones were hexagonal, I believe.

74. Fibbage 4

This is probably the newest game on my list, but I love Fibbage, and this version of it is what I consider the best, what with its differing question types, fan questions, and a great visual style.

73. Evil Genius 2

I'm putting Evil Genius 2 a little lower than the original, but it's still a great base building game that expands its predecessor, with four (later five) evil geniuses to choose from. It also has multiple bases, so you can conquer the world from wherever. Also, the steady flow of your minions is better put together here. It's just a little lower because no Alexis.

72. Scarface: The World is Yours

Ah, Scarface. One of my favorite movies gets a “quasi-sequel” because this game starts with the classic shootout at the end of the movie (and you will die if you don't turn around and kill The Skull) and is about Tony rebuilding his empire and getting revenge on Sosa. The voice cast is fantastic and the music is kicking. See if you can find the PC version, there's a great fan-made patch for it.

71. Shantae and the Pirate's Curse

Pirate's Curse is heavily regarded to be the best of the Shantae games, and I have to agree. The pirate gear adds a lot to Shantae's normal skill set, along with being a different style of play since it doesn't have any genie powers, unlike the other Shantae games. It's still a fun time.

Part 4 should be tomorrow! :D

the way I can trace every character dynamic that I like back to code geass... it really was. the blueprint. the imprint it has on my brain is still manifesting in other ways more than a decade later

#mine musings #no truly. watching cg in your formative years really does rewire your brain #but that's because suzaku and lelouch speedran through so many situations together that you can drop them in any au and it makes sense #arranged marriage au? yeah that's the son of the prime minister and a prince and they were childhood friends too #knight and emperor? yup they conquered thw world too. you can make lelouch a hero or a villain #childhood friends to lovers to enemies to lovers to being asked to kill one another? #diametrically opposed ideals? unreal power duo that can do anything (literally anything) when they team up? #how about: being the guardian to your brainwashed best friend who is struggling to remember his identity and you don't know #if you want him to remember #additional layer: YOU SOLD THAT BEST FRIEND YOURSELF TO THE ENEMY #how about: cursing your best friend to never die ever. how about: making him live his penance for the rest of his days #it's also not even suzalulu because like. there's also the whole other thing with lelouch and cc #being confidants? having each other's backs through thick and thin? #fooling the world and hiding together as probably an immortal duo? #having fun with secret identities and taking turns posing as the mysterious masked character? #cg invented relationship tropes i fear #liveblogging cg #code geass
