𓆏𓆏𓆏Your outer appearance + astrology ✪︎︎✌︎

****Celebrities examples are all sun sign placements, but description would be more for rising+sun.

👀Sagittarius placements always have cat eyes and really luscious lips 👄 they’re like the siren 🚨 personified xxx I personally think they’re some of the most beautiful people that have graced the earth- so sensual, so sessy. ex: Zoe Kravitz, Scarlett Johansson, Alexa Demie, Lucy Liu, Jane Birkin, Brad Pitt, Gemma Chan,

👀Cancer placements …y’all are SO ethereally beautiful, like what ? You all look like fallen angels: full, round face, soft eyes and perfectly pouty lips. So angelic, so divine 👼not stereotyping but y’all do look a little moony lol 🌝 ex: Margot Robbie, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, Kali Uchis, Hoyeon Jung, Lana Del Rey, Hope Sandoval,

👀Taurus placements..your bone structure is insane. This one’s obvious because Taurus is ruled by the planet of beauty, Venus, but there’s this grace and goddess/god like energy of Taurus placements. Earth mama/daddy energy. 🌎🍃Nurturing, grounding peaceful. 🕊ex: Gigi Hadid, Robert Pattinson, George Clooney, Cate Blanchett, Travis Scott, Megan Fox, Machine Gun Kelly, Penelope Cruz

👀Gemini placements: there’s this untouchable kinda beauty to y’all. Almost like you’re not from this planet. Eternal youthfulness (Mercury ruled y’all) feminine yet masculine at the same time or vice versa. 🧔‍♀️Very gender fluid. Mischievous look in ur eyes. Deep set eyes that have perma Smokey eye filter. Smaller frame ex: Angelina Jolie, Natalie Portman, Lily Rose Depp and Johnny Depp, Tom Holland, Princess Nokia, Emma Chamberlain, Emily Ratajkowski, Stevie Nicks, Naomi Campbell

👀Capricorn placements..this one’s personal because I have many caprisun placements, but everyone always says I have great bone structure. I see that in a lot of Capricorn celebrities. Great smiles (Capricorn rules the teeth), oddly goat 🐐 like but in the best way possible. Beautiful skin and usually blessed with great hair as well. Actually really ageless, no joke, we ages backwards I swear…a little elf like 🪄🧝‍♀️ ex: my boy Timothee Chalamet, Suki Waterhouse, FKA Twigs, Kate Moss, Hunter Schafer, Jared Leto, Francois Hardy, Florence Pugh

👀Scorpio placements: for real, y’all are so frickin sexy. Like damn.. you got those bedroom eyes and killer smile. Even if they’re not traditionally handsome (like Libras lol) there’s always something about Scorpio placements that draws you to them magnetically. Hypnotizing. Also there’s a kinda vampire 🧛‍♀️ vibe to them ngl. ex: Ryan Gosling, Leo DiCaprio, Travis Barker, Adam Driver, Winona Ryder, WILLOW, Joaquin Phoenix, Drake

👀Pisces placements: otherworldly beauty, like so so dreamy. They have that “dream girl” “dream guy” aura to them.

Old soul energy with deep kindness in their eyes. Mermaid/merman energy 🧜‍♀️🧜 ex: Rihanna, Bad Bunny, Ansel Elgort, Olivia Wilde, Liz Taylor, Lupita Nyung’O, Drew Barrymore, Erykah Badu, Kurt Russell

👀Libra placements : I always tell people that Libras are gods favorite. They got the charm+ the looks+the artistic talent. 🙏Sheesh 🙄 There’s a kinda sweetness to their looks, yet you know they’re hiding something from you. It’s the same trickster energy as Gemini. If you were to create the perfectly balanced ⚖️human face, it would be on a Libra for sure. ex: Kim K, A$AP Rocky, Doja Cat, Brigitte Bardot, Gwen Stefani, Snoop Dogg, Dakota Johnson

Super sexy, yet looks like you wouldn’t hurt a fly. Smaller frame usually ex: Emma Watson, Paul Rudd, Kristen Stewart, Saoirse Ronan, Lady Gaga, Kiera Knightly, Pharrell

👀Virgo placements: Virgo is the virgin🧘‍♀️ maiden, and earthy energy of Mercury. There is a youthful quality to Virgo placements, just like Gemini, but it’s more feminine and soft in nature because Virgo is a feminine sign. Y’all have this wisdom in your eyes, like you see all the worlds hurts. Kind, gentle, yet a hidden sexiness to y’all. The kinda peeps who look innocent on the outside but u know there’s something quite tempting about them. 😉Smaller frame usually ex: Keanu Reeves, Salma Hayek, Zendaya, Beyoncé, Blake Lively, Tom Hardy, Idris Elba, Sydney Sweeny

That’s all y’all 💜 thanks for reading 🙏

headcanons for torchwood three going to a festival together because my recent trip to cardiff was, in fact, for the depot in the castle festival because bastille were on & it had always been a bucket list wish of mine to see my favourite band live so my friend invited me & our other friend to join her to see them. it was incredible & lovely to see people of all ages having an absolute blast, HOWEVER, because i just could not be Normal, my brain decided to spawn headcanons for torchwood three (all alive, no dead idc about canon) going to a festival together. i apologise in advance to you all, especially to @kirstyth who is about to hear more of my insanity.

ianto probably has the best glitter makeup look. he would have gems, rhinestones & so many different colours of glitter & would look stunning. he would probably have the bi flag with myfanwy on it. would probably do most of the singing along & dancing with an equally as bright & cheerful jack, gwen & rhys.

now i really think jack would be opposed to wearing glitter himself but i could also imagine jack in his normal coat but it being completely covered in navy blue glitter (he would probably get some on his face though from being affectionate with ianto) probably wears leather trousers like the ones he wore in bw/tpotw & is having a great time as its probably his first twenty first century human festival.

martha i think, depending on her choice of hair style would either have silver or gold strands in a messy bun or if she had her hair in her beautiful braids, she would have different neon beads in them & a gold flower headband, she would look like an absolute goddess. may have some angel wings on because they remind her of her friend tallulah & potentially could wear a similar style dress. if she drags her husband along along mickey probably ends up with glitter in his hair & would have an inflatable alien on a stick left over from one of the ‘alien spacecraft crashed into big ben’ parties.

weirdly enough i think rhys would also have some glitter, more low key than ianto but he would still look cool. makes sure everyone has a drink, would probably wear a big flower necklace, has an inflatable flamingo & neon heart shaped sunglasses that gwen would have a matching pair of. he'd be having such a blast because he didn't think torchwood did normal things like this. is definitely the festival expert & likes that he has significantly more knowledge on something than the rest of torchwood three do.

oh gwen would probably be wearing a pretty flowery summer dress & definitely has matching sunglasses with rhys, wears big fun, colourful plastic jewellery & has her face painted, is very excited about torchwood three doing a normal activity, spends most of her time group dancing with rhys, jack & ianto, is also wearing a flower crown, i could also imagine her with bright red streaks sprayed into her hair, tries to convince owen to dance with them to no avail but would probably win in a drinking competition between herself, rhys, jack & ianto.

tosh i think, would be all about the flower crowns & would look like the most beautiful ethereal fantasy fairy with small but intricate glittery makeup. loud music probably isn't really her thing but she loves spending time with the others. has one drink, gets nowhere near as drunk as the others do. is convinced to dance with jack, ianto, gwen & rhys a few times but hovers around owen to talk with him & attempt to get him to smile at least once. he gives her his jacket or lab coat when she’s cold & that absolutely makes her day.

whilst i think suzie would join in on wearing a flower crown with tosh, i feel like she would wear a massive gold medusa snake headband or something equally as strange with a long tie dye dress & hand jewellery that she's fashioned to look like the risen mitten. definitely looks like some kind of mysterious witch that's just emerged from deep within a forest. probably would be quieter than the others & drink with owen but is occasionally seen humming or singing along. if any of the team members see her dancing, no they did not.

owen would probably not want to be there, especially if its taking place in the middle of a field because he doesn't like grass, definitely almost always has his drink in his hand or his face buried in a cup whilst sulking, unlike the others who are having the time of their lives & would definitely wear his normal every day clothes, potentially even his lab jacket if the team have just dragged him with them. makes snarky comments most of the time but has conversations with tosh & suzie because they're quieter than the others. somehow ends up being forced into a flower crown by the combined efforts of tosh, suzie & gwen.

myfanwy has her own flower crown that she found on the floor of the hub during when the others were getting ready, she’s flying through the skies & rather enjoying the tunes she can hear. scares a few locals, some people think she's a flag or a balloon though.

#captain jack harkness #✨javic piotr thane✨#suzie costello #toshiko sato #owen harper #ianto jones #myfanwy jones harkness sato harper cooper #gwen cooper #rhys williams #martha jones #torchwood #whoniverse #kat’s thoughts 🍄

Thank you everyone for submitting to our Femslash Fest! Your recs are below. Happy Valentines!

to the waters and the wild by violetmessages (GwenTosh | complete | 13190 | T)

“Beautiful, isn’t it?”

Tosh whirled around. She’d thought she was alone, she’d expected it.

Then she locked eyes with the most beautiful woman she’d ever seen, a woman who seemed to radiate an ethereal glow, a woman that emanated an otherworldly light.

Burnt Muffins and Purple Aprons by violetmessages (GwenTosh | complete | 362 | T)

Gwen doesn’t exactly know how to cook. But Tosh loves her regardless.

From Her Own Ashes Became Fire by Princessoftheworlds (SuzieRose, JackIanto | complete | 10762 | M)

In one universe, Torchwood Three found the Resurrection Gauntlet early, and Suzie Costello found her darkness and destruction; in this universe, they don't find it until several years later, and that makes all the difference. Suzie picks up the gauntlet, but instead of slowly losing herself to it, she finds a glowing golden goddess - Bad Wolf, and she falls. Oh, how Suzie Costello falls.

(Or: Rose Tyler died when she looked into the Time Vortex and was transformed into Bad Wolf. She is light, life, and Suzie is dark, death, and they balance each other out, two halves of the same soul.)

And The Rain, In the Rain by DinoDina (GwenTosh | complete | 2073 | G)

It's just the two of them, Tosh and Gwen; or maybe it's the three of them, Tosh and Gwen and the rain outside; or four of them, Tosh and Gwen and the rain and Jack's coat. And Gwen looks so very good in the coat.

they can't believe I made you weak by aliciajazmin (GwenJilly | complete | 1653 | T)

Jilly Kitzinger thinks she's hidden in London, until Gwen finds her.

wlw and cats by (aliciajazmin, DinoDina, and Jackdaw816 ( EmmaLoisTish | complete | 466 | M)

"Emma could never have imagined having one girlfriend, let alone two."

you're so beautiful by aliciajazmin (GwenTosh | complete | 358 | T)

Gwen Cooper waits for Toshiko Sato to arrive home.

Tell the world that we're not finished yet by Beleriandings (MarthaTosh, Jack&Tosh | complete | 14858 | T)

Tosh had thought that when the Rift had closed again after Bilis and Abaddon, after Jack had come back to life and given them all his forgiveness, that things would return to normal. Or at least normal by Torchwood standards. It’s only when she meets Martha Jones and the Doctor, and finds herself swept off to the far future, that she starts to realise that the end of the world is only just beginning.

Love Into the Light by Paycheckgurl (GwenTosh | complete | 12805 | T)

If Gwen’s being honest, the person on her team she wants, loves or could love at any rate, is Tosh. Smart and beautiful Toshiko. Tosh, who could be cold and calculating but is sweet and caring. Tosh, who saves the world in her quiet way. But Gwen is rarely honest with herself and locks it deep inside.

Anti-Logic by Paycheckgurl (SuzieTosh | complete | 775 | T)

Toshiko knows how Suzie thinks.

Overlapping Orbits by Paycheckgurl (Sarah JaneAlice, Alice&Jack, Luke&Sarah Jane, JackIanto | complete | 5817 | T)

Sarah Jane and her new girlfriend Alice have more in common than they think. And more that could drive them apart.

Hit and Run by Paycheckgurl (Alice GuppyEmily | complete | 704 | T)

Emily Holroyd is dressed to kill.

Mother's Day by NancyBrown (AliceJenny| complete | 1224 | T)

It should have been her.

Clarity by NancyBrown (AliceJohnson | complete | 1423 | E)

Johnson keeps watch. Post-CoE.

Exit Protocol by Beleriandings (GwenTosh, Gwen&Tosh | complete | 6139 | G)

Not long after the deaths of Tosh and Owen, Gwen gets a message from an unnamed user on the Hub system. That really shouldn't happen. And yet, there it is.

Bar Games by melodramatic (GwenTosh | complete | 398 | T)

“Shag, Marry, Cliff,” asked Gwen, a mischievous smile on her face. “Torchwood Team edition.”

Morning by Iantoscoffeebean (GwenTosh | complete | 560 | E)

Written for femslash February, but posting a bit late.

Guilt by bonusvampirus (sein_Henker) (GwenTosh | complete | 1883 | E)

Gwen is in love with Tosh. That complicates things in all the ways you might expect, but that hardly matters.

the night-time is the hardest by aliciajazmin (GwenTosh | complete | 1850 | T)

Wanting to comfort Tosh, Gwen goes to Tosh's flat with a bottle of wine. She wonders what Tosh may have heard with the pendant.

Honestly by aliciajazmin (GwenSuzie | complete | 462 | T)

Gwen asks Suzie to prove that she's being honest with her.

Her Hands by DinoDina (TishLois | complete | 2763 | G)

In which the Year that Never Was is over and Tish needs to move on; in which the 456 are gone and Lois is not the same person. In which they are drawn together, and everything changes.

Touching Me by aliciajazmin (TishLois | complete | 315 | T)

Tish shows Lois a better way to start a conversation.

Toshiko Sato is a timelord, travelling with her companion and girlfriend, Esther Drummond.

Kiss Me Already by aliciajazmin (GwenTosh | complete | 2044 | T)

Gwen and Tosh want to kiss each other. They each enact successful plans to do so, before eventually realizing their feelings for one another.

Lemnos by pasiphile (MaryTosh | complete | 2594 | E)

After Mary, Tosh adjusts.

the beauty of ardra 💧🌑

💧margot robbie (ardra surya): upper photo

💧emilia clarke (ardra chandra): lower photo

🌑 the nakshatras of the nodes have a very distinctive appearance. the influence of the feminine rahu bestows ardra natives with the typical feminine features, such as delicate facial features, larger eyes, and a voluptuous body. the yin features of rahu gives natives a type of otherworldly and ethereal appearance, similar to that of saturn. this is because both planets are of the air element (for a better understanding of this go to my pushya nakshatra post). these natives typically have large and rounded eyes, dainty noses, and a lighter complexion (depending on the native’s ethnicity, i.e. if a rahuvian woman is of a darker complexion, she may have a slightly lighter complexion than her other non-rahuvian family members).

⭕️ let’s look at rahu’s most evolved state: the shatabisha nakshatra. this nakshatra is symbolized by the empty, yin circle. shatabisha is ruled by varuna, god of the rains, cosmic and terrestrial waters, sky and earth. in addition to the mystical healer, maya (illusion). the nature of shatabisha is also abundant in the other rahu-ruled vimshottari nakshatras (ardra and swati). this is because rahu is the utmost manifestation of the divine feminine. maya, being the embodiment of illusion, betows rahuvian individuals with the power of being an empty vessel for the divine collective; bending reality and transforming into the desires of others the native deems worthy. however, due to rahu’s rebellious nature, we see this powerful feminine force being steadfast and not easily influenced by others.

💧liv tyler (ardra surya): upper photo

💧emily blunt (ardra chandra): lower photo

🌧 ardra is the first rahu-ruled nakshatra. in order to better understand the nature of ardra, we need to take a step back and understand the previous nakshatra—mrigashira. mrigashira was the rejection of the garden of ignorance and the freedom to move on. in ardra, we see the process of forming the rational mind and free will. due to the intellectual nature of rudra, we see ardra natives preferring to study, understand, and learn about the physical world/plane. this often leads to a fascination with the physical plane and understanding the workings of everything that peaks their interest. with the mercurial energy of gemini (knowledge) and rahuvian influence of the vimshottari system (materialism and illusion), we can see the reasoning of ardra’s prevelance in dystopian, horror, and sci-fi films. this nakshatra’s fixation on understanding the world and finding freedom is the perfect combination for creating films with dark subject matter. rudra’s intentionally destructive nature also provides ardra natives with a niche ability to accumulate knowledge to understand the workings of the world and destroy what seems to not be fit. precisely how rudra represents the emotional release and purification that occurs after the storms of the plane or mind cease (more on this later!). this is similar to most character development in many horror/sci-fi films and the ever present devil/savior trope. if you’re interested in further looking into this dichotomy, i recommend “the exorcist” starring linda blair (ardra chandra), “bedazzled” staring elizabeth hurley (ardra lagna), and “supernatural” starring mark pellegrino (ardra lagna). this trope is also perfectly illustrated by lana del rey’s (ardra surya) music. in her earlier albums, “born to die”, “paradise”, and “ultraviolence”, the singer describes her natural love of the darker things in life (i.e. drugs, violence, guns). as her albums progress, we see her slowly become more aware of the dangers of her lifestyle and her slowly moving towards love and kindness instead—much like rudra’s symbolism of calming after the tumultuous storms of life. i highly recommend listening to her music to gain an understanding of ardra’s themes!

💧karen mulder (ardra surya): left photo

💧victoria beckham (adra lagna): right photo

🦮 ardra is heavily associated with animals. it is symbolized by the female dog yoni. this is indicative of ardra’s devotional, emotional, and knowledgeable nature. rudra is the ruler of this nakshatra. rudra desired to become “the lord of the animals”. this nakshatra also has the same animalistic dominion desire of uttara phalguni and revati. this is because the yonis of all three nakshatras are the female dog (ardra), female cow (uttara phalguni), and female elephant (revati). this may be indicative of the motherly, animalistic nature of all three nakshatras. this is also why all three nakshatras get along so well. the animalistic nature of ardra is why we see hundreds of ardra natives in animal prints, fur or leather, or animal symbolism via graphic tees or headbands; similar to the reoccurring cow print in uttara phalguni fashion!

💧vienna skye (ardra surya): upper photo

💧ariana grande (ardra surya): lower photo

🍀 another reoccuring style theme for ardra was the appreciation of 60s fashion, particularly the mod era of the 60s. time and time again, when doing my research for this post, i saw a multitude of ardra natives dress up/try to emulate 60s fashion. ardra natives such as ariana grande’s (ardra surya) 60s-inspired fashion in her most recent music videos (i.e. “34+35”) and chrissy tiegan’s (ardra lagna) multiple 60s themed events. i believe this behavior is due to rahu’s extreme prevalence in old hollywood and the 1960s’ modeling industry. for example, hedy lamarr (ardra lagna) was a prominent actress and inventor, jean shrimpton (swati surya) was an icon of swinging london and very popular model in the 60s, and pat cleveland (ardra surya) was a very well-known model who was the muse of every prominent fashion house in paris. i believe ardra natives try to emulate this era of fashion because of ardra’s appreciation of all things old and vintage, which appears to the nature of many of the rahuvian and ketuvian individuals. an additional thing to note is the prevalence of the color green in the ardra nakshatra. in hindu/vedic astrology, a particular type of color is dedicated to a certain nakshatra in which is lucky for the natives of the nakshatra to wear. green, being the color that symbolizes the fresh, succulent nature of rudra, is why the ardra natives shown above, vienna skye and ariana grande, are both wearing the color green. this also correlates to how many ardra natives have dyed their hair green shades or hues, i.e. gwen stefani (ardra chandra), nicole richie (ardra chandra), and rapper saweetie (ardra surya).

💧kaya scodelario (ardra chandra): upper photo

💧emma mackey (ardra chandra): lower photo

🎸 all nodal nakshatras tend to have a propensity for darker elements and themes in the media. this can be reflected in ardra’s love for grungy, smoky makeup; darker clothing; and vampy, vintage hair and fashion looks (much like the magha nakshatra). this darker aesthetic was also heavily popular in the 90s/2000s. most notably, lizzy caplan (ardra surya), who played janis ian in “mean girls”, her character was well known for her liking of punk subculture, heavy eye makeup, and band merchandise, a trait that was also common with the characters played by ardra natives: kaya scodelario (ardra chandra) in “skins” and emma mackey (ardra chandra) in “sex education”. this behavior is prevalent in the ketu and rahu natives because it reflects the smoky and tamasic nature of both shadow planets. by rejecting the more popular, mainstream trends for the purpose of embracing more expressive and alternative movements (such as grunge, punk, rock, alternative, etc.). this why we see the nodal nakshatras so prominent in those subculture musical genres (i.e. ardra natives kurt cobain of “nirvana” and jimmy page of “led zeppelin”).

as always, i am open to any constructive criticism! i tried to touch on both the appearance, fashion and nature of ardra and i hope i did well! this post took me forever to make and i truly tried to put so much effort into it! i just adore ardra’s emotional, purposefully destructive, raw and feminine energy its natives tend to reflect 🌩 if you are looking for more information about ardra, get to know the overrulers and supreme deities of rahu, durga (the goddess of power) and the serpent god, and mercury, vishnu (the maintainer) and narayana (the cosmic person)!! if any of my placements or information is incorrect please feel free to let me know! also, i am fully aware of the origins of vedic astrology and if i was in anyway disrespectful to hindu culture, i will take down this post immediately xx

* all of these placements were found using astrotheme/.com and/or astro-charts/.com. it is important to note that some chandra (moon) placements may be off by up to 6 degrees and lagnas (risings) as well, due to the fact that many websites do not have a 100% accurate birth time for the given celebrities.

* i take no credit for the invention of vedic astrology-based appearance profiles. please watch claire nakti on youtube or look into @/cn0bles, @/lovejustlied, @/dh4nishta, and @/vanillemercure on twitter for more in-depth analysis on vedic astrology xx

Well, I wasn't reeaaally tagged but @wildlingoftarth said anyone who wants to and I'm just so bored. (Seriously, feel free to tag me for anything, I just want something to do.)

Top three ships

1. Brienne of Tarth × Jaime Lannister

OBVIOUSLY. No matter how much I love the others, this will always be THE OTP. Too much perfection, basically.

Staying within Game of Thrones, I also kinda like the thought of Tyrion and Sansa. Perhaps I just think these two could finally do with a break and some happiness.

2. Fleabag × The Priest.

I mean...it's the Priest. Any further explanation needed? I don't think so.

3. Charles Carson × Elsie Hughes

Mrs Hughes. The accent. The eye-rolls. The kind yet somehow terrifyingly calm way she keeps everything and everyone at Downton Abbey under control (even Carson). Fabulous.

Also, does it count to ship Violet and Isobel as the best damn friendship in television history? Because YES.

Lipstick or chapstick

Chapstick. Works better for daily stuff. I like wearing lipstick if the occasion comes along, but it's rather rarely. I'd like to wear it more, perhaps I will in another ten years or so -I just turned 21 today, actually (or rather yesterday, regarding that it's 2am)- and I'm sure there are women my age wearing it on a daily basis but on me who looks like a sixteen-year-old it just doesn't seem right.

Last song

What Is This Feeling? from "Wicked", the original version with Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth.

Last movie

Solo - A Star Wars Story

Not a huuge Star Wars fan (more Star Trek, tbh), but Emilia Clarke and Phoebe Waller-Bridge?? Hell yeah?!?

Reading

Last book I finished was The Children Act by Ian McEwan. So brilliant. And fantastic adaption to film as well.

Have been stuck in the first part of the Outlander Series by Diana Gabaldon for a while..

And I should REALLY finish Asoiaf but I just can't motivate myself to pick up A Dance with Dragons right now.

Then (yes, I do A LOT of parallel reading) there is, as always, a Jane Austen novel. I sort of have one of them by my side constantly. Currently my fav, Sense and Sensibility.

Aaand fanfic, of course. Lots and lots of fanfic. Every day.

Three random things that make me happy

1. That time when you just start trying to fall asleep knowing that you don't have ANYTHING to do the next day

2. Content about my OTPs or Emma Thompson. Honestly, anything related to Emma. Seeing her, reading about her or hearing her voice immediately puts a smile on my face. Guess I could say she's basically my favourite person on the planet. Or maybe one of two because we all know there's the ethereal goddess Gwen out there.

3. The time after having just finished a writing flow when you feel that sort of peaceful tranquillity of freeing your thoughts and fixing them as words on paper. Best feeling ever. Ever.

Tagging?

Well, I don't really know anyone so I'm just gonna stick to it and say whoever wants to!

The Revenant (3/?)

Things that never happened, but might had easily happened

She’d hardly had to spend an hour at the Temple of the Moon before she was back in business. It was odd, but Gwenhylew had experienced stranger things.

After agreeing on initial details with the Night Elf man, there was little reason for her to stay at the Temple anymore, and Gwenhylew ambled towards the bank. It was time to take stock of her supplies.

The concept of a bank had been ridiculous twenty-odd years before, but it was one of the changes instigated by the Night Elves joining in an alliance with the humans and the dwarves. What had once been a strange and jarring way to conduct business amongst the previously nomadic elves (who’d traded more in items and less in gold) had now become a normal.

While she was queuing for one of the tellers to take take her to her vault, a sight of blue hair in the corner of her eye caught her attention, just as a familiar voice called her name.

”Gwenhylew!” harked Priestess Willowsong, who wore an identical white Mooncloth Robe to Gwen’s.

Willowsong’s countenance had always been one of extremely strong and confident restrain, which made even her calling out Gwen’s name sound like a polite whisper. When Willowsong gently stepped across the greenery in the bank garden towards Gwenhylew, most might have mistaken it for formal reserve; where Gwenhylew took it for enthusiasm.

”Willowsong,” Gwenhylew said, a genuine smile on her lips. They greeted each other with bows of their heads.

”Good to see you in Darnassus,” Willowsong said. ”We should have tea, but I’m on my way to the Temple for a tribunal council.”

”Oh?”

”A complicated matter, and I fear it might take all night. But, I could tell you everything over tea, tomorrow?”

Gwenhylew shook her head slowly. ”I was off a ship last night… and I’m leaving by another tomorrow, bound for the Eastern Kingdoms.”

Willowsong smiled, a mysterious and sedate thing that barely curled her lips. ”As usual, you are hard to pin down.”

”I’ll ask around for you, when I return. I’ll supply the tea. Need anything from Stormwind?”

Willowsong mock-shuddered at the mention of the human city. ”Anything that comes from the Eastern Kingdom better stay in the Eastern Kingdoms.”

A teller interrupted them to take Gwenhylew to her vault just then. ”Sister Mayapple,” he said.

”We should both go,” Willowsong stated, speaking her words with slight urgency, making Gwenhylew realize she must have already been late for her appointment. ”Good luck with your adventures.”

”Good luck with the tribunal.”

”Oh, I don’t need the luck, the idiot who broke into the Barrows is the one who needs all the luck,” Willowsong replied, and left.

Before following the teller, Gwenhylew watched the other Priestess glide away, thankful for the chance meeting. ”Oh, yes. Let us go.”

The vault door hadn’t been opened in years. For some reason Gwenhylew expected dust, but there was none. Inside the tiny room, all her extravagant and priceless robes were organized neatly. A gold-and-chrysoberyl tiara - crafted by a master enchanter-jeweler out of the spoils of the dread dragon Onyxia’s Lair - lay on a silk pillow, illuminating the room; and it was not the only item to throw its light across the walls.

”Do you require more light?” The teller asked her politely, from the corridor. They were not allowed inside the actual vault.

”No, thank you, this is fine,” Gwenhylew said, and took an enchanted dagger from the weapon rack, and used the blue flame licking the blade as an impromptu torch. Out of all the items in the vault, she went for the shelves covering the wall. In the centre of it all lay an ornate wooden box, and opened it. Inside were four rows of potions, five vials in each row.

”I wonder if these have expiration dates,” Gwen said outloud, to herself, and grimaced as she found herself speaking her thoughts to herself yet again.

The teller replied, assuming the question was actually directed at them. ”I’m not sure, Sister. Perhaps someone in Crafter’s Terrace would know?”

Gwenhylew nodded. ”Yes, I could ask around there of course.” She twirled one of the vials containing blue liquid, and watched the magic inside it reflect the light of ethereal flame of her dagger, faintly glittering.

She took a supply bag from the lowest shelf – one she thought she must have sewn herself years ago in a pinch – and selected three of the precious vials to place inside it. She was no longer a big shot, she reminded herself. She was in fact, pretty broke, and couldn’t afford to shop for potions or armour as if gold grew in trees. She’d had money, of course, but it had had an odd way of diminishing day by day, bottle after bottle.

Another item on the shelves gleamed in response to the flickering dagger – a copper flute, half hidden in a picnic basket along with a dozen other items. For a fraction of a second, it brought a smile to her lips.

”That’s probably too dangerous to bring for this trip,” she said, as if it were a particularly witty comment, but then she found herself speaking out loud again, and almost bit her tongue in an effort to silence herself.

”Oh… if you say so,” the teller replied.

”Yes, thank you, we are done here.” Gwenhylew’s voice lost the humorous charm that had crept in for a moment. Everything was cool and business-like once again. She returned the glowing dagger to the weapon rack, and the teller locked her vault soon after.

The night was still young. After her visit to the bank, she headed for the local druid conclave of the Cenarion Circle. She hoped the politics of the Circle hadn’t changed too much in her absence.

The Circle had been in a in difficult position when Gwen had left, working together with druids of all races, much to the dismay of the Sentinels of the Night Elf army, and the Priestesses of the Moon; Gwen imagined the Wardens who kept the prison barrows and likewise made sure the Temple remained free of corruption also had their strong opinions on how the druids ought to ally themselves.

But Gwenhylew had rarely had any problems with the druids herself. Her father was one of them, after all.

Gwen suspected some of the Wardens were suspicious of Gwenhylew’s real allegiances – she had rarely been a model Priestess in many regards – but she also had wreaked enough carnage on battlefields that anyone would be hard-pressed to prove Gwenhylew was not loyal to the Sentinels.

Nevertheless, she felt like she was being watched as she climbed the steps up to the druid enclave.

Darnassus may have looked like a haven of serenity to the naked eye, but underneath the surface... odd tensions remained.

–

Late into the night, having visited not only the Cenarion enclave, but also the Crafters Tavern, and a few of the local herbalists and alchemists, and the tailorers, Gwenhylew had returned to her solitary room at the edge of Darnassus.

She’d dressed down to an exotic midnight blue dressing gown, embroidered with silver herons. She’d bought it on a whim back in the south, because it was comfortable to wear on hot summer days by the shimmering turquoise sea. It would remain behind in her rented room.

The traveling clothes had been cleaned and mended by the tailorers. Sensible boots, warm gloves, water-resistant travel cloak. An blue, enchanted hood to hide Gwen’s hair. It looked plain, but the runes and the threads inside the lining could have taken the first heat of a young dragon’s breath and left her hair and head perfectly intact.

The Cenarion Circle’s green and turquoise travel robes, freshly brushed and reinforced, hung over the back of a chair, waiting for the next day.

Even though she’d soon been awake all around the clock, Gwen remained awake, packing her saddle bags for this next adventure she was about to partake on. Come noon tomorrow, a hippogryph borrowed from the Circle would carry it on its back.

On the bottom of the back she folded the Mooncloth Robe. Its fine but sturdy material took very little space amongst her things, and one could never know when an opportunity might rise which needed her to throw her political weight around.

The potions she’d acquire were transferred inside the saddle bags. A small knife which folded in upon itself. Dry travel food followed, and a full waterskin (that water from Stormwind just couldn’t be trusted…)

A worn canvas map. A leather-bound journal with notes written in meticulous detail. A prayer candle. A sleeping roll.

There was one more item laying on the purple quilt on top of the bed. Gwen sat there, staring at it, transfixed.

It was an iron cylinder that fit in the hand nicely. A small round wheel mechanism on one side. Gwen picked it up, her forehead wrinkling in deep thought. A memory came back to her.

Auberdine, a lifetime ago. The village is beautiful and intact. Moon rising over the sea. Her sitting on the pier, cool sea-breeze in her hair. She laughs. She feels young, she feels happy, she feels the strength of the Goddess protect her against anything, and the war with the Orcs will soon be won, and Ashenvale will be safe. Elves are good, Orcs are bad, and the Goddess is great.

”I got you this,” a voice giddy with anticipation tells her, and presents her with a box wrapped with white paper and blue ribbon. It doesn’t take her long to pull the paper aside and open the box, a strange iron cylinder inside it. She takes it in her hand, and he wraps his hand around hers, as he shows her the mechanism how to unwind the fishing pole. Later, their hands remain together, his wrapped around hers.

Even later, his sister wryly tells how he spent hours looking for that gift.

With a twist and a flick, it opened, pulling out of itself, until it became a fishing pole.

”It’s not going to be a fishing trip, is it,” Gwenhylew said, and sighed. Speaking aloud to herself. Again.

She pushed the rod of the Iron Fishing Pole back inside its handle and for the first time ever since receiving it, set it aside.

hi! I wanted to diversify my readings, so I was wondering if there are any rarepair writers in the fandom, and what sort of things you'd see there?

Mod Note: There’s lots of rare pair writers in the fandom! Some focus on pairings from the audio dramas, some focus on non-canon ships with interesting dynamics, some focus on canon tv ships that aren’t otherwise given a lot of attention. For me personally I like attention being given to characters that are often overlooked, and using the characters explore themes. Also wlw make my bi brain go brrrr. — Mod Alyssa

“Sorry?” Andy frowned as if he also couldn’t believe what Owen had said. Owen couldn’t blame him.

“Come out with me,” he repeated, doubling down. “You don’t have a date. I don’t have a date. Let’s go out.”

To the waters and the wild by violetmessages (GwenTosh | complete | 13190 | T)

“Beautiful, isn’t it?”

Tosh whirled around. She’d thought she was alone, she’d expected it.
