#dew's lore

[roseheartss]

Rain with his arms securely around Dewdrop just listening, holding him tight. Dewdrop quietly voicing his every thought knowing if he says them to someone he’ll hear how silly he sounds. Rain never judges him for it. He could never. He knows how much Dew struggles to rationalize his own thoughts from the intrusive ones. He’ll sit all night with his fire lily if Dew will have him. If it keeps Dewdrop safe and healthy, his mind at ease even just for a short while, Rain would go to the end of the world and back.

[thelampisaflashlight]

I was playing around with some character lore and so forth and as I was scribbling down Ideas I basically wound up going, "What if I wrote Dew how I initially saw him before I learned his fandom characterization?" and it basically went like this;

Me, writing Dew without an angsty background: "...What are you?"

Dew: "Mentally stable."

Me: "Dear God..."

#lamp rambles #shitghosting #nameless ghouls #dewdrop ghoul #the band ghost #ghost band #ghost bc #for all intents and purposes this is a joke #kind of #I am actually working on some lore stuff and one of those involves how I write Dew #this would probably be more of an au kinda deal if I did since I already have a fairly solid thing going with Dew now #still though

✿ been thinking about mountain and his flower nicknames he gives everyone… my love for victorian flower language haunts me. anyways, buckle up. it’s another leaf hyperfixation :)

aether: “my little jonquil” which means ‘i desire a return of affection’, because mountain thinks that aether doesn’t bother him nearly enough or as much as the rest of the ghouls do and he wants to be bothered, damnit! also, the yellow hues complement aether’s eyes nicely, mountain thinks.

rain: “my little blue bell” (‘i will be constant’ in flower language), because mountain wants rain to know that even though he is one of the younger ghouls, their little pack would simply not be the same without him, no matter what his insecurities and awkwardness might try to tell him. this name in particular never fails to leave rain a perfectly blushing mess. also, the bulbs of this flower reminds mountain of rain’s nose.

swiss: “my sweet geranium” and “my little ivy” for geranium ivy. mountain likes to divide this nickname up, but make no mistake! it’s in reference to the same flower (meaning ‘your hand for the next dance’), and it references both swiss and mountain’s places next to each on stage and their sometimes shared shenanigans. also, the shape of this flower’s petals reminds mountain of swiss’ vape, as the slight curve and stretch of the petals remind mountain of how the fumes from swiss’ vape somehow always find him; always reaching for mountain’s lungs.

dewdrop: this one was a bit tricky, as mountain has tried numerous names in the past that dewdrop has immediately shut down, the dastardly fire ghoul somehow knowing a good deal of flower language, and the embarrassing softness behind mountain’s nicknames (perhaps from his time as a water ghoul? did he once have an interest in these things?). but, regardless, mountain has found two names that he’s been allowed to use repeatedly. “my scorched mulberry” (‘scorched’ is intended to take the place of ‘black’, so a black mulberry which means ‘i will not survive you’) and “my dear mignonette” (this one means ‘your qualities surpass your charms’), amongst some other names that dewdrop allows like “fire lily”. although that one doesn’t have much meaning besides the obvious. also, both the reaching structures of mulberry flowers and mignonette stalks remind mountain of dewdrop; always reaching towards the sun. whatever that might mean.

cirrus: “my sweet heliotrope” (meaning ‘devotion’) because no matter the height difference, mountain will always be there to willingly drop to his knees and worship the earth with which cirrus simply breathes. just as she deserves. also, the sometimes complicated scent of the heliotrope flower reminds mountain of cirrus’ own scent; complex with floral smells, but also balsamic with sweet notes.

cumulus: a personal favorite nickname of mountain’s, he adores calling her “my lovely, lovely juniper” (meaning ‘asylum; shelter’ in flower language), and it’s in reference to how much of a motherly figure/safe space cumulus is — not only for mountain — but for the rest of their polycule as well. also, the soft blue/white colors of the juniper flower reminds mountain of how cumulus’ hair shimmers underneath the moonlight.

sunshine: mountain likes to alternate between “my sweet cedar” and “my darling little maiden’s blush” (meaning ‘i live for thee’ and ‘if you do love me, you shall find me out’, respectively)the last one is certainly a mouthful, and mountain typically saves it for some very special occasions. both nicknames are in reference to their elements connections, and how the earth quite literally needs the sun in order to victoriously flourish and thrive. also, the way sunshine’s hair is so curly and vibrant in color reminds mountain of the intricate curves and structure of the maiden’s blush rose. how sweet.

copia: mountain called him “my sweet cypress” (meaning ‘mourning’, and ‘despair’) when they first met, and it’s in reference to when his brothers had been killed. now, he calls copia “my little locust” (meaning ‘affection beyond the grave’) not just for his lost brothers, but to remind copia of his forever place in the ghoul polycule. also, the fact that the tree is called a black locust, and yet it blooms a white flower reminds mountain of him. specifically his papal paint.

#mountain’s flower petnames have me DYING #because of course you have more obvious ones based on appearance and favorites and whatever #BUT THEN YOU HAVE THE ONES WITH FEELING #anyways I’m totally normal about this #also oopsie #ghost lore in the dew section haha!! #mountain ghoul #ghost bc #dewdrop ghoul #ghost band #ghost #rain ghoul #aether ghoul #swiss ghoul #sunshine ghoulette #cirrus ghoulette #cumulus ghoulette #copia #shitghosting #ghost hc #ghoul hc #might do more with era iii? #this was fun :) #flower language #spoiled seeds

I also think about Dew and Copia. All the time. How did they end up together for you?

Before either of them were in the band. When Dewdrop was in Secondo's pack of ghouls that consisted of his lovers. That's when Copia's pining began.

Dewdrop has been in polyamorous relationships since Secondo summoned him. It wasn't exactly that Dewdrop was off limits, but perhaps out of Copia's league. Secondo was rather amused when Dewdrop came back one day to him, wearing a new piece of jewelry that he's not seen before. A gift from Cardinal Copia, Dewdrop tried to tease and play the gesture off. But there was no hiding the fondness in his voice.

the whole thing with michael and expired soda annoys me because they’re all factually incorrect with the dates

- the squip says “you’d need a time machine to the 1990s” in reference to mountain dew red, but mountain dew red was only available in 1988, making it from the late 80s, not the 90s

- crystal pepsi was discontinued in 1994 and most soda takes about 9 months to expire, meaning that michael’s bottle he bought off ebay expired in 1995 at the latest, not 1996

- ecto cooler was discontinued in 2001, not the 90s as michael states it does, unless he was looking for a version with slimer on the box which would make it from 1997 at the latest

#btw if anyone wants to correct me on these pls do #but this was what I found from quick research #michael mell #soda #shut up dani #bmc #be more chill #crystal pepsi #mountain dew red #ecto cooler #bmc lore

Mountain antler thoughts:

He keeps them on a shelf with other bones he finds in the woods. They’re a good personal record for him, some years are smaller than others and the wear shows a history. One pair is splintered from a bad fight he had with Dew before they patched things up. (The year prior his actually came off during a fight where he locked horns with Dew).

Most embarrassing moment for him was when a sibling found the pair before him and he had to go like “hey uh… those are mine can I have them back?” And the sibling doesn’t know how to respond to an 8ft tall cryptid thing in the woods extending a hand out for his horns back.

He bonks his head on things when they’re about to shed. It’s like an itch he just has to wait out. Do not make this dude wear his helmet during that period or glamor them.

It doesn’t hurt per se, but deer do bleed after shedding. He doesn’t even notice that there’s blood in his hair until Phantom says something, everyone else is used to it already.

i loooove the underwater ost in genshin but one thing that especially gets me is the vocal work sounding very reminescent of the vocals in the vourukasha oasis

and yeah it could be a coincidence but given that the harvisptokhm was born from the remains of the previous hydro archon it makes me 👀

#again. the fact that the romaritime harbour sots tree directly faces the amrita tree kills me inside !!! #hnrgh. i love genshin. #and if you wanna get even deeper into it - #romaritime harbour comes from the word romarin #which is french for rosemary #rosemary comes from latin meaning dew of the sea #AND THE PREVIOUS HYRDRO ARCHON WAS THE LORD OF SWEET DEW #in cn its straight up called sea dew harbour #ourgh ourgh #what if i died. #need more furina lore right this moment. i demand it. #im wondering if the fact the sots has its back to her predesscor means anything..... #it might just be random placement bcs from what we know focalors seems to be dealing with the prophecy left to her #BUT #with all the oceanids leaving fontaine i cant help but wonder if she turned her back on the previous archons ideals and ways of life... #i need to know their relationship. #and actually i just need to know /what/ furina is #wait this is its own post one sec #step right up! || 🪄.txt

We’ve all heard of “ghoul glamour”, where the ghouls can disguise their features to appear human. My loreverse has “illusion magic” and “glamour magic”.

Illusion magic is an illusion that makes a ghoul appear a certain way while they still maintain their traits. Think invisible tails that can still wag and grab things.

Glamour magic is a spell that changes the form of a ghoul. Painlessly, of course. This is an appearance spell that will get rid of a tail rather than simply making it invisible.

A while after deciding that there would be two appearance changing charms in my loreverse, I wondered if the ghouls could change into other forms, like unearthly creatures and animals, and I decided it made sense.

This means that my loreverse’s kitty Dew can actually be a kitty if he wants. Some of my posts are gonna explore that, so heads up that if Dew is mentioned having paws or being 5 feet shorter, it’s because he’s in a cat form.

(My kitty Dew is somewhat inspired by @sphylor’s kitty dew, but my kitty Dew originated as a means of simultaneous invention, as I headcanoned a kitty Dew and days later found out Sphylor was already writing kitty Dew! There’s no way Sphylor’s headcanons haven’t influenced my kitty Dew in some capacity, so I’m crediting him.)

To Answer Some Frequently Asked Lore Questions...

-“What is an imp?”

Imps are just little dudes, think somewhere between a guinea pig and an Italian greyhound both size wise and in demeanor. I made them on a whim, and they are now just part of the overarching narrative I’ve made for the ghouls.

They’re both another form the ghouls can take, and a species of demons native to Hell. 

The main difference is that ghouls can return to being ghouls if they bathe in sulfurous baths, proper imps cannot.

-“Why is there a hole in the wall between Mountain and Dew’s rooms?”

Not super long ago, but buried far enough post wise, I made a joke about Dew launching himself at threats he sees in the dark. 

The threat was Aether.

Dew missed and smacked his head into the wall.

Boredom and general madness led to the hole being made significantly larger.

See these idiots for clarification as to HOW big:

Copia is not happy about this.

-“Where do kits come from? No, really.”

Lore wise, I haven’t actually thought much on this side of things, but a lot of folks got curious after I made a joke about them coming from those sponge capsules that grow into foam animals when you put them in water.

To answer this question; I once made a chat post where Mountain and Dew mused over whether or not ghouls were mammals, with the conclusion being that, yes, yes they were. Meaning ghouls probably reproduce the same way most mammals do... 

Mountain also made a comment about platypuses.

However, he probably shouldn’t be trusted as a source of knowledge on this matter, as, due to the same post with the sponge capsules, lore wise he appears to genuinely not know how ghoul reproduction works.

Aether does though.

Aether isn’t going to elaborate.

And lastly...

-“About Dew’s alligator...”

Dew had a pet alligator for a few posts named Dew Jr.

He hatched from an egg that Dew was handed to see if he understood how to be “gentle” with things.

The alligator, story wise, remained in Dew’s care until is obviously got too big to be in the dorms anymore, much to Aether’s great relief and Dew’s deepest sorrow. (He got over it after a while.)

Somehow, these things became main staples of my lore lol

For the wattpad book. Maybe cuddle positions with the ghoulettes? If you don't write them maybe the ghouls? Thx.

Hello!

This is something I originally wrote in my actual book, Persephone Minor, and sort of a general ghoul thing.

When ghouls are young, they sleep in a pile with their brothers and sisters like a pack of wolves. It's both a comfort and safety thing. Physical touch is important to ghouls and helps them sleep, but also preserves body heat (Hell isn't actually that warm).

As they get older they sleep alone more and more but a good signifier that a group of ghouls are close is if/how often they get in the pile. Arms and legs everywhere, horns in places horns shouldn't go, masks gone twisted and backwards. They make it work.

When two ghouls are in a romantic relationship, it's all about comfort. That means beds, pillows, blankets, everything. Absolutely covered. They'll rip the cushions off the couch and steal the blankets from every bed in the house to give their partner and basically barricade them in their room.

Ghouls do the same to children for the earliest years of their lives before they get pushed out of the nest, so to speak, to figure it out for themselves and play in the dirt. When an adult ghoul does it to another it's not only a display of affection and protection, but also a good sign a baby is probably right around the corner.

If no baby ghouls are on the way (or possible, ladies) who doesn't like being snuggled up in a thousand blankets with a higher thread count then they can count to out loud anyways.

Because of the pile mentality, ghouls will also sleep more on top of each other than beside each other in a bed, like a weighted blanket that loves you.

TLDR: rain and dew sleep on the bottom of the pile, Swiss sleeps mostly out of it but rests on the pile like a lawn chair. Cirrus and Cumulus sleep on top of the pile like the blankets, and Aether and Mountain are in the middle. When they sleep alone, Cumulus sleeps on top of Cirrus perpendicularly with either her legs hanging off the bed or her whole head. whenever she wakes up something is numb.

I hope this helps.

~ Rosie
