Plotted Divine Heart Starter for @medicus-mortem
Tumblr media
Ikkaku lay in her crystal prison, tears that would have run dry from dehydration long ago for a human still streaming down the goddess' cheeks. Hers was a well of emotions that ran deeper than any mortal being. Pain. Betrayal. Humilaiton. Shame. Anger. Guilt. Despair. All of these feelings burned in her heart, but there was nothing she could do to vent them except bang her fists impotently against the walls of her prison, scream, and cry. She was the one thing no god wished to be: powerless.
Atlantis. The city she'd given everything to, had founded and blessed and protected in hopes of creating a beacon of home and light to mortals and gods alike, had betrayed her. Taken the knowledge she'd shared with them, the defenses she'd helped them devise against the other gods, and used it against her. Tricked her with a celebration supposedly in her honor and then trapped her in a crystal cage like a canary. All so they could siphon away her light and treat her like infinite kindling for the fires of their ambitions.
Oh, how the mortals had laughed and cheered when their little plan had succeeded. When she'd screamed for them to let her out, demanded an explanation, begged them to think and realize they were making a mistake. But they'd all simply laughed louder, drowning out her cries. Even the city's children had been in on it, their brilliant little minds just as culpable as their scheming parents.
How long had the Goddess of Light and Guidance been trapped? Unlike mortals, the gods had no need to eat or drink or even breathe if they did not wish it. Things that would easily show the passage of time for mortals did nothing for her. The room deep in the castle did not even have any windows, so she couldn't even tell if it was day or night. She could not die, and she could not escape. All she knew was that, occasionally, she would feel a pull. See some of her power rise off of her skin like steam and be absorbed by the mechanisms withing the crystal, which would then travel down golden cables that would disappear into little tunnels and tubes throughout the chamber's walls. The people of Atlantis were stealing her light to power their city, Ikkaku's city, and she could do nothing.
Another wave of fury rose up within her like an ocean wave and she scrambled to her feet, clawing desperately at the walls of her prison. The material was rare, tempered with magic in a way even she hadn't considered. There wasn't so much as a crack or blemish upon the beautiful sides of her crystal cell. The other gods would likely not fare much better breaking her out, assuming they could even get into the city. Which they wouldn't. Ikkaku had worked hard with the citizens to create defenses that even her fellow gods would not be able to overcome. All to protect them from their spiteful ways.
The other gods had disapproved of her patronage of Atlantis. She imagined they must be laughing at her now. Laughing and furious that they were as powerless to breech her city as she was to escape it. She'd been too clever and generous for her own good. She'd accounted for every god who might wish to do harm to her city of devoted worshippers.
Black, abyssal eyes widened in an ephipany. Every god except one.
Pressing her forhead against the cool, mirror-smooth side of her prison, Ikkaku's tears continued to flow as a soft whisper escaped her lips. It was ironic, a goddess praying, but she had no choice. She prayed he could hear her. Could help her. There was no doubt in her mind that he would if he could. That the Lord of Night Terrors and Discord Bringer would find a way to free his sister.
"Law," she sobbed quietly. "Please. Please help me, brother."

I miss fun TV shows with ragtag friend groups getting into wacky hijinks. Like yeah fine they save the world or whatever but more importantly, they crack jokes and get into shenanigans and take care of each other. Miss the hell out of that shit.

𝟑𝟎 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐬
Notes: The Holidays are coming up and my gift to you all is a bunch of reading 🫶, written by yours truly of course. Most of these works will be Christmas / New Years related. This is also to help introduce some newer characters to my blog so I can continue writing for them in the future! I included some extras at the bottom because there were some characters I really wanted to do but couldn’t fit in on the calendar, so they’re separate from the calendar but still apart of the event! This will be the masterlist for the event and will be updated as the month goes on. Some of these might be NSFW, some might not be.
NSFW = ❀ SFW = ꕥ

Regardless of which one you picked (the harder the choice, the better), is The Crescent of Fools and Forgotten Time the movie for you!
(majorly appreciate any reblogs and signal boosting!)
Jayce and Lott find themselves in the twisted grasp of Lucille Carmine, one of the most dangerous Overlords of the criminal world, in a fantasy-heist, splicing the thrill of walking the edge of a knife with fantastical malevolence.
full intro here
And the best part is that you can get it made! Literally all you have to do is head to this link, read the script (you can also listen if that's more your style), and vote with your honest opinions. The winner of the competition gets their movie fully funded and produced!
I've found that the listening tool is more reliable than reading, so to make sure your vote counts in one go, just hit play and mute the tab while you read. Feel free to reach out to me if you run into any issues!
So go forth and read! Tell your friends! Tell your family! Tell that annoying guy you always see at your bus stop in the morning!
P.S. If you send me a screenshot of your vote, I'll do everything I possibly can to get your name added to the credits :)

Have you ever noticed the hidden connection between Disney's Typhoon Lagoon water park and Atlantis the Lost Empire?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So, it is all about the family raft ride (ya know, the kind where 4 people ride together) called Miss Adventure Falls.
Tumblr media
Because this is Disney, it isn't just a regular water slide. It has a story and characters and all that stuff. This ride is specifically about Captain Mary Oceaneer! An explorer, sailor, scientist, bad bitch, treasure hunter, etc...
Tumblr media
She is also a member of the Society of Explorers and Adventurers (aka S.E.A.) A secret society that works as a sort of meta narrative tying a bunch of Disney rides from around the world together. But that's not important right now, just cool to mention. I've talked about S.E.A. before anyways
Tumblr media
What IS important right now is her sub! Rightby the exit to the slide you can see her underwater exploratory vehicle which has been blown ashore by the huge Typhoon that transformed the Placade Palms Resort into the Leaning Palms Resort and created Typhoon Lagoon (the story behind the water park as a whole)
Tumblr media
(Notice the two beach chairs next to the sub. one for Captain Oceaneer and one for her parrot, Duncan)
Look real close at the sub and you'll see something a little odd
Tumblr media
Look at those squiggles! Those aren't just squiggles! That's Atlantean Script! The language made by Mark Okrand (the guy who made Klingon) for Atlantis the Lost Empire! And we can translate it!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Captain Mary Oceaneer wanted the Atlanteans to know "I Come in Peace" as she explored the ocean! And I think that's neat as heck

i am so goddamn tired of every single fantasy story being about men. i am so goddamn tired of women being side characters and love interests and set dressing and an afterthought. i am so goddamn tired of women who are powerful but feminine. women who are "dressed to kill" and they are wearing eyeliner and a dress and heels. i am so goddamn tired of women always being healers and having water magic. i am so goddamn tired of men going on adventures and dying nobly. i am so goddamn tired of never being able to find a story about women that i can fall in love with. i am so goddamn tired of all fandom being about men.
#i have spent the past several weeks becoming increasingly upset about this#hannibal? men. lotr/the hobbit? men. stargate atlantis? men. dragon age inquistion? men. one piece? men.#the handful of superhero's i periodically read about? men. transformers? men. every goddamn anime i've ever loved? men.#the witcher? men. fantasy anachronism? men. literally every single fantasy adventurer series? men.#it's men and men and men and men and men and men and men and men#i just want ONE. one single goddamn story about women that is as well written and well made and as deep as everything else#i want ONE story about a women or women who are noble and honorable and fight in the face of impossible odds#and i don't want them to be pretty and small and feminine#make them hairy and fat and muscular and tall and wear steel toed boots and carry swords and fight monsters and sleep in the woods#and eat stew and carry heavy packs for long distances and be intelligent and sneaky and cowardly and fearful and brave#make them laugh and cry and scream and fall in love and write poetry and books and songs#make them wrestle and pick on each other and pull each others hair and sit around campfires#MAKE THEM GODDAMN PEOPLE#there are books out there about women going on adventures. they exist. i've read some#but they are not the majority and they never get big#and so many end up being poorly written or a romance or a combo of the two#i don't WANT to have to read genderbends just to read about women#i don't want to scroll tumblr and just see men on my dash#all i have ever wanted my whole life is to be a fantasy adventurer. and none of them. not ONE of them looks like me#i am tired of watching youtube critiques of fantasy shows/movies/stories and them just shitting on the women characters#i am just so tired of it

This is my piece for the Autumn Writing Challenge put on by my friend @deny-the-issue. Using some prompts from this post, I put together this little piece about my Stargate Atlantis OC, Mina. Hope you enjoy! Divider by saradika
Word prompts: Scars, bonfire, sweater, dusk
Dialogue prompts: “You look cold”, “It’s not even that cold!”, “You should stay.”
Warnings/Tags: Illness mentions, Burns and fire related injury mentions
Tumblr media
The air outside felt crisp and cool as Mina stepped out on her porch. Her gaze settled on the sky beyond the trees, taking in the sight of the setting sun. It set so early now, darkness coming earlier in the day as the season changed from summer to fall. She was lucky if she even got to see much of the daylight, spending most of her time underground working in the infirmary with Corric or training with Nikomi.
As she watched the sun disappear behind the trees, small amounts of light peeking out between the branches, Mina wrapped her arms around herself. The disappearance of the sun meant that any warmth it had brought with it had faded. Goosebumps rose on her skin and a light breeze caused her to shiver. Perhaps it would be best for her to go inside before it got too cold out here.
Just as she turned to go inside, she saw a figure in the distance approaching her home. Mina squinted her eyes to try and see through the falling darkness to ascertain who it was and soon recognized the form of her husband. She lifted her hand to wave as he got closer, welcoming him home.
“What are you doing out here? Especially without a coat or a sweater?” he asked.
Mina shrugged at his question, rubbing her arms with her hands to help warm herself up a bit.
“It’s not even that cold,” she said. “Just a little chilly. I was just about to go inside anyway.”
He stepped past her and opened the door, ushering her into the house ahead of him. The warmth from the lit fireplace was a nice change from the air outside and Mina was suddenly glad to be back inside.
“Why were you out there to begin with?” Kolya asked as he hung up his coat and took a seat in his chair beside the fire.
“I wanted to watch the sunset,” Mina said. “I don’t get to do that very much and it’s only going to be setting earlier with every day that passes.”
“Well, I hope you don’t come down with anything. If you think that I will agree to go with you to the celebration tomorrow night while you are sick, you are sorely mistaken.”
Mina laughed softly and shook her head.
“I highly doubt I’ll get sick that easily, Acastus. I work with sick people all the time and I almost never catch anything.”
“You probably just jinxed yourself, sweetheart,” he said. “Come tomorrow morning, you’ll be sniffling and rednosed.”
“And you will be there to tell me ‘I told you so’,” Mina said, sticking her tongue out at him. “After the celebration, I promise to stay inside unless necessary or wear the proper clothing to be outside.”
“Thank you,” he said. “Now, why don’t you tell me what you did on your day off?”
Tumblr media
The following evening, Mina walked hand in hand with her husband in the direction of the celebration she had been anticipating. The roaring bonfire could be seen from a great distance away and threw many shadows across the ground, illuminating the people gathered around it. 
When they got closer, Mina saw her siblings standing with a few others and released her husband’s hand to go visit with them. Thali threw her arms around her in greeting and quickly pulled her closer to huddle for warmth. Caleb smirked at his sisters and gestured to the large fire.
“You know, Thali, you could stand closer to the fire if you’re cold,” he said. “Rather than stealing all of Mina’s body heat.”
“I’m more than happy to share,” Mina said as she returned her sister’s embrace. “We can keep each other warm.”
After some time had passed, one of Thali’s friends had joined the group and Mina was released from her hold when her attention was captured by them. She waved goodbye to her siblings and started to walk around the fire, saying hello to different people she knew as she passed them. She eventually came across Corric standing alone, staring at the fire. Mina came to stand beside him and bumped him lightly on the shoulder with her own. He nodded in greeting, but didn’t say anything. She wondered what was going through his mind as he stared at the fire, as he seemed to almost be looking for something in the flames.
“Is something wrong?” she asked, breaking the silence between them. “You’re staring awfully hard at the fire.”
“It’s Dahlia,” he said. “I think there may have been some residual effects from the fire on her body. Especially her lungs.”
“It’s been nearly 8 months since the fire,” Mina said. “Why would they just show up now?”
Corric shook his head and glanced over at her. 
“I honestly don’t know. I have to run some more tests, but there’s something wrong. I can tell.”
Mina unconsciously rubbed her thumb over the back of her hand, tracing the scars on her skin. Corric must have seen her slight movement, as his gaze drifted down to her hands. He reached out and gently took one of them to look closer. 
“Do you still feel any pain?” he asked. “I can give you something if you do.”
Mina pulled her hand from his gentle grip and shoved both of her hands into the pocket of her coat. She knew he was trying to focus on something that he could fix to get his mind off the mysteries of Dahlia’s condition, but there was nothing that he needed to do for her that would distract him for long.
“They’re fine, Corric. They sting and itch from time to time, but I take good care of them.”
Mina knew this information wasn’t anything new for him. He saw her every other day and had already looked at her hands many times to ensure that they had been healing as they should. The scars weren’t pleasant to look at and while they would fade, they would never completely go away. To her, they were a reminder that she had saved a life with only a small price to pay herself.
“I should probably go back to the infirmary,” Corric said. “There’s been a number of people coming in with a serious flu the last few days and they could use my attention.”
Mina removed one of her hands from her pocket and grabbed onto the sleeve of his coat to stop him from walking away.
“You should stay,” she said. “Go visit with people. You almost never leave the infirmary and you deserve a break. Whoever’s working tonight can handle things until you get back.”
Corric looked unsure, but finally nodded in agreement. 
“I suppose you’re right. I’ll see if I can find Sora. I’m sure she wouldn’t mind my company.”
Mina gave him an encouraging smile and watched as he walked off in search of his cousin. Once he was out of sight, she turned her attention back to the fire. She wondered if Corric had been thinking of the incident because of the flames before her. Surely a blaze like this would bring back some negative memories of the day he nearly lost the woman he loved. 
“Are you enjoying yourself?” a voice asked from behind her, pulling her out of her thoughts.
MIna turned to see her husband standing a short distance away. He stepped towards her and wrapped his arms around her waist, resting his chin atop her head.
“The warmth of the fire is pleasant,” Mina said. “I was just speaking with Corric. I managed to convince him to stay a bit longer rather than returning to work.”
“That man works too much,” Kolya said. “It’s not good for him.”
“Says the man that also works too much,” Mina said with a small huff of laughter.
“Yes, but I am of high ranking with many responsibilities. He could train others to help with his work, he just chooses not to.”
“He trained me,” Mina pointed out. “Although that didn’t work out very well once I started splitting my time between two places. I really should talk to him about bringing someone else in to work for him.”
Kolya merely hummed in response to her statement and tightened his grip around her waist. The sensation seemed familiar, reminding Mina of earlier when Thali had been doing something similar. She noticed a tenseness in his form and his usually warm hands felt chilled when she touched them. He really should have worn gloves.
“Acastus, are you cold?” she asked, shifting in his arms to look up at him. “You look and seem like you’re cold.”
“I should have worn a sweater,” he said. “I’m a bit uncomfortable, but I’ll live.” 
Mina shook her head in amusement. Just the day before, he had been scolding her for not dressing properly and here he was, not wearing the layers he had suggested for herself. She leaned back into his embrace, hoping her body heat would help warm him a bit. 
They could go home soon, even though the celebration was far from being over. As much as she enjoyed participating in these things, she found recently that she enjoyed staying at home with her husband just as much. Hopefully, they would be able to spend more time together in the near future as things settled down for the winter months.

Caesars Palace, NV (No. 5)
The Forum Shops at Caesars, also known as The Forum Shops, is an upscale shopping mall on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. It is connected to the Caesars Palace resort, and both feature a Roman theme. The mall project was announced in 1987. It was developed and initially owned by The Gordon Company and Melvin Simon & Associates. The land had previously been used for the unsuccessful Caesars Palace Grand Prix. Construction of the Forum Shops began in 1990, and the project opened on May 1, 1992, with 240,000 sq ft (22,000 m2) of leasable space. An expansion opened in 1997. Simon subsequently took over full ownership, and another expansion was opened in 2004.
The mall has 675,000 sq ft (62,700 m2) and approximately 160 tenants, including various restaurants. It has also offered several shows featuring animatronic statues. Until 2016, the Forum Shops was the highest grossing mall in the U.S., measured in terms of sales per square foot.
Like Caesars Palace, a Roman theme is used throughout the Forum Shops. The mall features an abundance of marble, and several fountains are located inside and out. The interior includes sky-painted ceilings which change from day to night.
The mall has 675,000 sq ft (62,700 m2) of leasable tenant space. It has approximately 160 tenants, including 145 retailers and 15 restaurants. The mall receives an average of 50,000 visitors per day. Approximately 20 percent of the mall's clientele are local residents, with tourists making up the remainder. By 1997, the Forum Shops had become the highest grossing mall in the U.S., measured in terms of sales per square foot.[19][49] It would retain this title until 2016.
The three-story expansion includes a skylight, and features several spiral escalators, created by Mitsubishi Electric. The company spent two years developing the escalators, and took another nine months to install them. At the time, the Forum Shops was one of only two projects in the U.S. to use spiral escalators, joining the Westfield San Francisco Centre shopping mall.
