@c00kietin hi here's my oc's 👉👈
The big and long haired dude is Akuji!!! (he/him) and the very traumatized goober is Rey <3 (she/her)
These two have been spinning around in my head for SO LONG. Probably two of my oldest oc's ever. (I thought up Rey 4-5 years ago I think?)
Akuji is the antagonist and Rey is the protagonist, there's a lot of themes of dissociation, death and physiological horror in their story so! Yeah. Putting in under cut just in case? Even though I don't mention it much here.
BASICALLY Akuji is this very, very old spirit. He wasn't always a spirit, but that's a whole new can of worms. Long story short with him is that hes been imprisoned in this one box for millenia.
Rey stumbles upon this box after the death of her brother - she is still deeply in grief and can't fully accept that her brother is gone. So when this spirit offers her a new world, a new life when everything is fine and her brother is alive and right there?
Well, I'd be a waste not to accept.
(how long has she been here? where is she? why can't she remember she needs to remember-)

Whumptober 2023 Day 5
Prompt: debris
Victim: Warriors
Words: 1037
Notes: The Yiga discover terrorism. (They're not very good at it.)
That kind of dissociation is derealization. Things feel less real. It's trippy.
Warriors was pretty proud of Wild. Even though he couldn't stay in his own time for very long, he always made the most of the time that he was available, somehow finishing a week's worth or more of work in just a day. He had a sneaking suspicion that the Champion pulled more than a few all-nighters while they were in town, but as long as it didn't affect individual or team performance, he was willing to turn a blind eye.
It hadn't taken very long to clear out the monsters near Wild's hometown. The champion was itching to get back and catch up with Flora, and any sense of self-control that he had in his body had clearly been completely disregarded with the way that he threw himself into the fight.
Warriors couldn't even reprimand him because he'd come out the other side perfectly fine except for a blossoming bruise curled around his jaw, and to be honest, it wasn't worth pointing out. Especially since Wild had already gotten out his shield to surf the rest of the way down.
…maybe he shouldn't have bet against Flora being Wild's girlfriend.
It didn't take very long to reach Hateno, and by the time they'd reached Wild's house (after several wrong turns), Flora and Wild were already deep in a rapid-fire conversation. Warriors, while not fluent in Sheikah, could understand just enough words to get the gist of what was going on.
Something shrine, something something castle ruins, something roads… construction talk. Great.
Wild had a… tendency… to recruit "volunteers" to help with his construction projects. While it was very kind of him to help the citizens build things like schools and clinics, it also sucked up a lot of the Chain's time because none of them had any construction experience so they were always directed towards grunt work, like transporting large amounts of supplies and that sort of thing.
Warriors enjoyed helping, he really did, but this was not the kind of helping that he wanted to do. Ideally, he could work on something he actually had experience in, but no. He was forever doomed to dig ditches and carry lumber.
Once Wild had finished debriefing Flora and vice versa, he turned around excitedly. "Great news, guys!"
Everyone groaned. Wild's idea of great news was noticeably skewed from what sane people would call great news. Except for Hyrule, but that kid was just weird all over.
Wild frowned at them disappointedly. Hyrule awkwardly gave him a smile and two thumbs up, then gestured for him to finish talking.
"Right, so, one of the shrines needs a little repair work because there was a bad storm that damaged a bunch of stuff recently. The townsfolk can't spare the time to do it themselves, so we're going to do it for them. It should be perfectly safe, but bring your sword just in case. There've been some Yiga sightings, but hopefully we can clear out any lurkers while we're working."
"How is this great news?" Wind complained. "Ships are great news, cake is great news, repair work is <i>not</i> great news."
Wild rolled his eyes. "Would you rather help lay the foundation for a house again?"
That shut the younger hero up. The project had been a <i>disaster</i> and had been put on the "we will never speak of this again" list.
Wild collected all the things that he thought they'd need, switching out seemingly random items with Flora before pulling her close in a hug. Then he herded them down the road like a bunch of unruly cuccos in the direction of the shrine.
There would be no escape from their civic responsibilities as heroes today.
The shrine was, largely, in better condition than expected. There was some rubble inside, but most of the damage was restricted to a section of the wall that had been the victim of blunt force, cracking the shrine wide open like an egg.
Wild took it upon himself to double check the finer details of the shrine inside and replace anything that was missing or otherwise broken while the others rebuilt the wall and cleaned away the debris.
Wind was, rather comically trying to keep up with Twilight despite the major difference in their statures. If it hadn't been for his determined face, Warriors would have broke down laughing an hour ago. He might have murdered Ganon in almost-cold blood, but he was still young enough to struggle with lifting the bigger pieces of stone.
All in all, Warriors thought that it was going well.
And then it wasn't.
Wild disturbed a nest of Yiga that were hiding inside the shrine, and the assassins immediately attacked, using the current condition of the shrine to their advantage.
Warriors didn't even think about it, instinct taking over his mind. One second he was outside, ears twitching nervously, the next he was being crushed under stone, staring a baffled Yiga dead in the face.
There was only one left, the others having been taken out by a combination of Wild and their own trap. The anger-fueled adrenaline clouded his mind, and he growled. "You'd better hope I don't get back up, <i>traitor</i>." He hissed.
The Yiga didn't seem very impressed. Luckily for him, it didn't get a chance to attack, since the wall it was standing next to exploded, chunks of rock flying everywhere as a very, very pissed hero glared down at the Yiga holding a massive sword.
Time meant business.
The Yiga didn't last very long after that. Time made quick work of it before kneeling down to Warriors with an expression of concern that had him half convinced that he was back in the war again.
As the adrenaline faded, he could feel the dissociation creeping up as the pain grew. Maybe it partly had to do with bloodloss, because he was starting to get chilly, but he trusted his brothers enough that he discovered he didn't care enough to fight it. The world got fuzzy, and indistinct, his perception of reality sliding away, but that was fine. He trust his brothers. Everything would be okay when he came back to himself, so he let go.

My friend @littlebabybean is hopefully starting up a patreon and it reawoken my craving for my own did system themed patreon.
This is the current, general idea although i’m open to suggestions:
$3 tier: digital
Polls, vlogs, BTS, etc
Digital or printable original coloring sheets and other arts and craft stuff
Journal prompts
This can be specified as systems, agere, etc
$6 tier: bubble mailer
-all of the above
-typed positive letter. If u want to respond you cna email me and I’ll use that to write about next month!
-guided affirmation practice and other self soothing activities
-stickers and other cute stuff i can fit in the mailer
$45 tier: gift box
-given a form of y/n for items, and a box for personalization
-completely personalized gift boxes can be system specific, agere, other things
-this one is expensive so i can get u cool quality things because if its all cheap and stuff it’s kind of missing the point
Please do me a favor and let me know if ur interested in this, or have any suggestions or questions!
I also do want there to be a big focus on recommended system content, whereas our youtube channels are more self guided
