How exactly does mom!reader get the changing? Did Keegan just drop the kid on the doorstep stork style, or was it a magic pregnancy (consensual and agreed apoun, of course). I feel like it would be funny if there was a newborn dropped on her doorstep, and she was like, "Oh shit like now? I get the kid right now?" Very much unprepared, rushing to get everything together. Calling into work like I need parental leave right now and her boss is like, "You have a kid? Since when?" Course, it would be funny if there was a planned scheduled time on the child delivery, like mail. Viewing to see when your package has arrived. Also, does the kid resemble mom more than dad?

I have... two thoughts on this.

The first: Mom!reader finds Keegan and asks for a baby, Keegan has plenty of ways to give out changelings but for you? Darling he's doing this the old fashioned way. You're not opposed, you came for a child, and he's a handsome monster. So you get a (fucking fantastic) night with him and he sends you on your way. BUT He warns you this is a fae child and you have to be prepared to take care of them. It'll be difficult but he knows you're up for it, or you wouldn't have sought him out. This is also his child, and one day he'll return to collect them, that's the deal.

And the second: Mom!reader asked Keegan for a baby and he went "done." Explained that he'd want something in return for collection at a later date, and then sent reader on their way. He gave them time to get set up. A week to make sure the child will be well taken care of, and on the eighth day a little wailing cry echoed out of the nursery reader had set up. Walked in and found their baby in the crib, wrapped nice and tight, safe and warm, just like Keegan said.

I do think parental leave is really weird in this auniverse. Lots of "I didn't know I was pregnant" situations that people just sort of wave off. Surprise babies are common enough that people don't ask questions. It's a family matter and legally they can't ask about it. These days the fae give a little warning, but it's still always last minute.

#ghoul speaks #cod x reader #x reader #keegan x reader #keegan p russ #fae!keegan #I think either of these could work #Anyway Keegan showed up when the kid was like 3 #because he decided it was time to pay up #and what did he want folks? That's right he wanted you #wanted to make a little family with you #easy peasy

im deeply enjoying the relationship ira is slowly building with fearne. he takes no umbrage with her for her father being zathuda, but their first meeting was marked by him not killing her because he realized she was of the calloways - and morri. she is nervous around him but naturally gravitates toward him and vise versa due to being the only fae in any given situation. they try to coerce fcg into being as whimsical as them on the silver sun. she steals his spyglass. they bond as ira tries to bring out the rascal fae instinct in her. he insults her by saying shes a disappointment where imogen is more powerful, but only says it because it's the unseelie perspective, and when he realizes she's hurt by it he spends the rest of the episode propping her up as fascinating, her father as shitty, and repeatedly says he would love her on his infiltration team, portraying her as extremely reliable before the volition.

ira is not a good man. and he knows that, and fearne knows that. but i think some part of him is deeply aware of the calloways' hospitality to him when he never deserved it, and even more aware this young woman is morrigan's ward. he is standing before a girl he doesn't see as a princess but the (grand)daughter of the people he truly does see as family. he never really knew how to treat people well, least of all them. but you can see him.... attempting, in his own way, to fit into a familial role to her. if there are two things fundamental to ira beyond his obscenity or his vengeance, it's his warped love of potential, and his even more warped, but even more sincere, care for a seldom few. he sees a literal fire of a youth before him, birthed & raised by those seldom few.

he wont let her peter out.

help

would y’all be interested in a fic that is like reader is chunkz’s sister and she’s dating Sharky and Sharky was too scared to tell Chunkz (he’s overprotective, bcus obvs) but Kenny knows and he can’t keep secrets so he tell Chunkz anyway

then Chunkz like fully interrogates Sharky

but like the version I’m picturing wouldn’t have like you in it, it would be Sharky’s pov or like third person pov. Reader would be mentioned but not actively in the story

would that be something if interest to anyone? I will write it if I get one yes because I keep thinking about this

Written once (in an ask thing) and I 👁👁... I know he wpuld likely be short lived but YALL if I don't feel TEMPTED to give him his own blog ... I don't wanna figure out a url and graphics n stuff tho (maybe later dkabfkf)

#( ooc ) #( tbd ) #OuGGHHH CLOCK HEAD MAN #he's an Anomaly of time itself or maybe he IS time itself so to speak #He's a whimsical and eccentric creature that even fae don't care for if only due to his unnerving nature <3 #VERY FRIENDLY though very polite (mostly) #Artemis but with no trauma and less brooding and also less of a heart somehow??? He's not a bad guy #He's just a uuh entity #Loves detective shit. Fancies himself one in fact! It's his current shtick

Songbird’s Blood stuff, hm? Alrighty! ~

(Please note this is loosely based off the fact you mentioned Scar will be capturing/kidnapping Grian when you first started to develop this au!)

Imagine how possessive Mumbo gradually becomes when it comes to Grian. It starts off slow… He begins to become used to the company of a human. At least this one.

He then slowly realizes he actually enjoys Grian’s company. Mumbo begins to count the minutes of when Grian will next visit him. Of when they will soon inevitably reunite after hours at a time of when Grian must go to work or home to his sister.

Finally, Mumbo realizes his adoration for the human. When does he realize this? Why, when the human hasn’t come to see him! How dare he be so late!

But what’s this…? Grian still hasn’t come over.. There’s no sign of his scent.. Wait. There is. His sweet honey scent, faint, yet lingering in the woods leading into Mumbo’s territory. The woods towards his manor. …Grian had been taken. Something happened to his human. His human!

He follows the scent to see just who dares to steal his property! Yet, as he finds where Grian was taken.. He finds a familiar man with a smirk upon his face. Scar. Scar has taken Grian. Scar has taken his human…

- 🦨 Anon

hmmmmMMMMMMMM —

I can’t speak Too much on what’ll happen with scar’s uhm… little meeting with grian, or how mumbo will react but :3 teehee

#mochi speaks #songbird’s blood au #grumbo #hermitshipping #though I wouldn’t quite say mumbo thinks of gri as his property… /lh #he’s certainly protective #and a smidge bit possessive #but time will tell on how that one unfolds <3 #vampire!mumbo #human!grian #fae!scar

perry, my bladesinger/artificer for a planescape game, is v fun bc at the start of her campaign she was like. yeah sure i'm level 7, but i work A Day Job. i taught myself wizardry & artificer techniques bc i love magic & do a lot of crafts respectively, not bc i'm an adventurer or anything. i'm just a cute lil dancer. I Have A Mortgage

and then u talk to her long enough and find out oh yeah she used to be a powerful fey in service of That Tasha before getting caught up in the political schemes of her lady's rivals that led to her being cursed and stripped of magic. huh? what? is that why there's a heavenly host dedicated to hunting her down, specifically? no no that's a whole other thing. she stole a magic weapon that willed itself into sentience & thus is an affront to Order tm bc she thinks he's neat and is now infamous for beheading angels that try to take him bc that's her Friend. its okay tho bc she keeps sending freshly baked cookies and such back w them, so there's a whole quilting circle of angelic spouses who love her to bits. she's besties w a full-blown dragon also.

and yet she has such "I'm just a little guy trying to make it in this topsy turvy world" energy that her other party members, who have actually been adventurers this whole time, had to be like

#i adore her is the thing. i love playing fae bc u can get silly and weird w it <3 #sorrel speaks

a travesty ive barely posted meta for artagan here when anyone who knows me knows ive written universes about him. so, a bit to ponder on:

something interesting about artagan - and by extension many fae in cr in general - is how thoroughly he's defined by selfishness as the core value of a fae, when we are shown time & again even before artagan gets his redemption arc that that isnt true.

now, arti is selfish. hes the definition of lust, & sloth, & sheer debauchery. he'd rather sit back than help even his favorite little tiefling (at first - more on that later). he would rather abandon his followers to an island that would destroy their memory than attempt to lead them.

but.

he planned for his followers to land on rumblecusp because to him, a fae, losing memories was completely Insignificant - and he literally did some of their paperwork to help them along, and did the work to ensure travelercon left them with each other. he was benevolent enough to vm their first meeting, showing incredible patience despite their disregard for him. he saved vex from drowning. he chose to befriend jester after seeing her be hurt by lord sharpe's son. he comforted jester when he could, when he never needed to. this is all before The Travelercon Kick, before he agreed to help the m9 into the feywild & shift time for them for no price, before he helped jester battle trent/omentis and made sure his spells did not hurt innocent bystanders.

this isnt some garuntee that he, pre-jester, was any saint. but what sticks out to me is how much the trait of selfishness is vastly applied to him. not only does sehanine's angel refer to him as a selfish creature twice, but he refers to himself that way the episode before. it is as if he has endless history with being called that, as if he is the most vile creature by virtue of being an archfey, and he made peace with that, leaned into that until jester walked into his life.

which always leads, in my head, to thinking about the fae of this show in general. they are so vastly blanketed as dangerous. and some are. but the more you analyze it the more you see how it's less integral to their being, and more what they accept they are. if youre seen as a monster, and whimsy is inherent to you, you will play the role to see what happens (i see this in characters like ira immensely). we see the younger generation of fae raised away from these generalizations - fearne & morrighan - break the stereotype near entirely. sure, fearne picks pockets and loves her friends lowkey possessively - but weve seen time & again how thats playful, and gives way to so much selflessness she's falling apart at the seams, only just now telling the party her fears. and morrighan shows no possessiveness at all, being shy & near subservient as a waitress. they are living proof that a fae's worst traits are a matter of nurture.

watching artagan is watching some of his peak fae-court upbringing begin to break down by exposure to a different world. i always recall how both he & ira hiss at the feywild for its contradictions, its rules when it's a land built for free wills - which implies the fae are not let to be themselves, but have their culture shaped by courts so strict they wont even let fae leave to exandria. the worst ideas about them begin to shatter the more cr tells us how fae society has fallen into something like an oil slick into an ocean - literal imagery used by athion & yu. the fae's free existence has been polluted.

artagan was our first example of all of that. and how it's possible to become better.

WIP Whenever

so i read like the first three books in Seanan McGuire's Wayward Children series and uh. spontaneously wrote like 2k of a maybe-sterek fic about it and am seriously considering making it a long fic so uh - i hope y'all read something that inspires you like this soon :) tagged by the lovely @outtoshatter

On the day of his father’s funeral, Stiles found a door.  He’d gone home – not that he could call it that much longer – almost immediately after the funeral was over, his father in the ground but the casket not yet covered, the sea of people present for all the wrong reasons not yet dispersed, unable to bear the condolences from his father’s coworkers that were meaningless unless they could bring him back. Even so, just putting the key in the lock of his front door reminded him of everything he’d lost. His eyes burned, but he couldn’t cry. He hadn’t been able to in weeks, not since the night he’d gotten that phone call and he’d cried all the tears he had.  Instead, Stiles calmly walked into his house, locking the door behind him in a routine written so deep into his bones that not even grief could change it, and went straight upstairs to sit in the shell of his parents’ bedroom. It was emptied, nothing but four white walls and scratched hardwood floors, but if Stiles sat where the queen-sized bed had been, closed his eyes and hugged his knees and rested his head against the wall, he could almost pretend he was nine again, with two parents who were still alive and a house that wasn’t reclaimed and that the last two weeks (five and a half years) were just a long and horrible nightmare.  But this is reality, so when Stiles opens his eyes, he’s still alone, numb in his chest where his heart should be, and in an empty room – that wasn’t so empty anymore. Directly across from him, right where his mother’s wardrobe used to sit, was a rather unassuming door.

again, no clue who's writing what right now - if you want me to tag you whenever i happen to have a snippet to post, just lemme know :) if anybody reading this has something to share, tag me in it!!

#literally tho after reading down among the sticks and bones it was like something changed inside me #seanan said 'yo there's werewolves in the moors' and i said '... werewolves you say' #i still have a lot to write and a lot to flesh out in this outline i've got but #if y'all are looking for a good magic true neutral fae situation i'd highly recommend the wayward children series #although i will read anything seanan mcguire writes #i'm not exaggerating #anyways this will have eventual sterek but right now it's uh. just stiles angst. sorry. #stiles stilinski #sterek #sterek fic #teen wolf #grace speaks #wip whenever #thanks for the tag gia my beloved <3
