The dreams that are answered

When they were children, the Illyrian brothers dreamt of wielding the legendary sword, Gwydion, to slay wyrms and rescue damsels.

And the stars who listened answered those dreams. Feyre slew a wyrm and rescued Rhysand. Nesta rescued Cassian in their book and now, with the release of hofas, has slain a wyrm. These patterns tend to come in threes in Sarah’s writing, like a Welsh triad, so it wouldn’t be surprising if Elain defeated her own wyrm (or better yet, if it yielded to her, like the scaled creatures yielded to Bryce) and she rescued Azriel in their story.

The Starborn blades have been returned to the Night Court for a reason. Nesta has her own trove of blades, and Azriel clearly cannot carry them by himself…

He hasn’t even unlocked the full potential of Truth-Teller’s blade after possessing it for years.

Vesperus, the Asteri in the Prison, makes an interesting comment here that reminds me of the Illyrian brothers’ childhood games. She accuses the Fae of playing with weapons they don’t fully understand. Their minds couldn’t hold all the possibilities at once. But we do know someone whose mind might be able to hold multiple, if not all, possibilities at once: Elain, the seer.

It was Elain who appeared out of nowhere, out of shadow, with Truth-Teller:

She may have opened a portal into nowhere, the void, with her power (which, like the Harp, might influence time and space) while linked to Truth-Teller, allowing her to appear exactly where she was needed, when she was needed to protect her loves ones.

Our damsel made her moment with a legendary weapon count. And it wouldn’t surprise me if we learn that—with her heightened, Cauldron-blessed senses—she can hear the blades singing to each other, tugging at her hidden powers.

And perhaps, when they explore the powers of those legendary blades together, Elain and Azriel will open a portal and travel the space between to places she’s only seen in her dreams.

Because the stars do listen—and dreams are answered.

Special thanks to @willowmeres, @offtorivendell, and @psychologynerd for their inspiring reactions to and thoughts about these connections.

arthur (prince of camelot) still has to study under a tutor bc yknow uther wants him to be very intelligent before becoming king or something bc its super important idk idc anyways merlin is doing chores in his chambers while arthur is squinting at a book and merlin eventually caves and asks him what he’s reading and arthur gruffly explains that its a collection of stories from greece that make absolutely no sense so merlin asks him to read them outloud to him. arthur of course teases him and calls him an idiot and asks how he could possibly help but does as he’s asked and reads the stories to merlin as he does his chores. merlin (being crushed under the weight of destiny and tormented by the prophecies that kilgharrah spews) understands the stories almost immediately and gets all excited and starts rambling about them with arthur. arthur is glad to have someone who understands so he can give something that reflects a hint of understanding to his tutor who accepts it and moves onto the next unit of education.

the thing is, arthur finds more stories in camelot’s library and brings them up to his room to read them aloud to merlin under the guise of completing his studies but really he just wants to watch as merlin’s eyes gleam when he understands whats happening and listen to him ramble on and on about them bc he’s gay. the stories stick with merlin though and he realizes that they’re cautionary tales, that the heroes who were told too much of their future doomed themself to fulfill them - that them fighting the prophecies led to their completion. merlin takes it to heart and gives a big “fuck you” to kilgharrah before forging his own fate and helping morgana with her magic and handing out an olive branch to mordred and now everyone can live happily and peacefully in an albion teeming with magic.

#merlin and arthur are of course at each others side in the end #merlin is curled up with arthur in their bed and says a silent thank you to his king for saving him #arthur returns the sentiment wholeheartedly #bbc merlin #merlin emrys #arthur pendragon #merthur #fic idea #fanfic #fanfiction #headcanon #hc #head canon #merthur prompt #i have my own hc of fate vs destiny in bbc merlin and i like to incorporate that into everything i write #but then i realize that not everyone thinks that way lmao #i like to think that destiny is unavoidable. merlin and arthur are destined to form albion and lead it together #i think fate is like a fragile version of destiny #i think most people are tied to fate and will follow what they are fated to do unless those who arent tied down by fate change course #like i hc that seers are able to see the potential future of what is to happen should they not interfere #and the goddess leaves it up to them to choose. so like seers arent tied down by fate and can change the course of history #since merlin is literally magic incarnate i also think he isnt tied down by fate and can act to change things #kilgharrah told merlin the prophecy that would result in the dragon getting free and ending the pendragon line #and since merlin never got close w like any druids or magic users. no one told him the inner workings of fate vs destiny #so he listened to the dragons warnings dooming him to fulfill the prophecy that brought about one of the worst possible futures #bc the dragon was salty about his whole species being eradicated by uther and vowed to destroy the pendragon line #omg im ranting okay post over thank you and good night

Hey! So um we kind of wanna ask your opinion on smt

So we've been in some spaces where it's like, multiple ramcoa systems said they didn't like ppl who arent programmed using number names, but now we've seen alot for systems say they don't think it's a big deal and I guess we're trying to, pick a side I guess?

Like we have unprogrammed alters that wanna use number names because they split because of smt related to numbers

ie, an alter who wants to go by 2 because we were in the group 2 in church (we had a very traumatic church experience)

I guess I'm just asking would it be like, okay for them to use that name? And more what's your opinion when it comes to non ramcoa systems using number names?

Sorry if this is long, and feel free to not answer if this makes you uncomfortable! Have a great day!!

💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐 <- for you

- The Fate Seers (if that sign off isn't taken)

As a ramcoa system… use the number. As stated before, yes there’s trauma associated with number names, but only ramcoa systems using a number as a name puts much more of a target on survivors’ backs.

We like being able to hide in plain sight, having systems that aren’t ramcoa survivors use numbers as names also helps.

Yes, it’s heavily debated, but the separation makes it easier for survivors to be a target.

If it makes you comfortable, use the number as a name. It’s okay.

Thank you for the flowers! ❤️

Dashing through the brambles and rows of trees, he runs as far from town as he can. Murdock may have caused a little more upset than intended, all over a few delightful pieces of china and rather unfortunate placement of some floorboards. Now he was expected to pay for both the floorboard and the smashed teacups. Perfect for the day the innkeeper had begun to realize that most of the coins he’d been given for the ex-knights room. So everything he owned was out on the streets while the local authorities started searching for him.

Deep in the woods, after what seemed like miles of blindly running, he sees the enormous tree house spiralling through a clearing. It definitely wasn’t abandoned, but he doesn’t care. Murdock smells food, but whether it’s real or not is all up to his overexcited mind and starving brain.

@murdersinthemaking

The ex knight's nose and subsequently his brain were not deceiving him.

Yancy is behind said treehouse, tending to the fire pit as he had chunks of deer meat and large potatoes roasting over a spit. Even if the half elf is nearly six and a half feet tall and of large build, it's a lot more food than he could eat on his own.

No, he knew Murdock was coming. And he knew he would be hungry.

As he comes barreling through the brush and into the clearing, Yancy looks up from his task with a broad smile. "Ah, hello there! Please, rest a while... foods almost ready," He speaks loud enough to be heard, deep voice easily carrying across the distance. "I have a waterskin if you need it."

WAIT HOW DID I NOT REALIZE THIS IN S6 UNTIL NOW

IT REPEATS. THE STORY.

SOMEONE PREDICTS THAT RUMPLE'S ACTIONS WILL SEPERATE HIM FROM HIS SON. SO HE DOES EVERYTHING TO PREVENT THAT. AND THAT'S WHAT ACTUALLY RUINS HIS FAMILY AND SEPERATES HIM FROM HIS SON.

Yes i know the first time it was more indirectly but the prophecy still came true although he was trying to prevent it

Playing "bad" characters on purpose

We should create a funny german word for when you play bad/low tier characters on multiplayer games and you are aware they are kinda bad BUT you just love their kit/design/lore etc

der gern-schlecht-gaming

what the enemy mid picked Talon? crazy man, anyway here is my Twisted Fate Blue card build

Oh no they picked Bloodhound with bangalore, Seer time

(I am aware TF is not a bad character in general, he is regarded as a excelent roamer and splitpusher, but here in Iron IV is just more fun to chill and farm with TF while your teammates are blaming you)

I know you said there isn't a way for Seer to go back home (I think) but since you said that Seer is gonna be in a romantic relationship with the monkeys, I immediately got the idea of Seer getting forcibly sent back home through some magic bs right after both the monkeys get attached to them and the last thing Seer can do before disappearing is telling the monkeys to take care of each other before disappearing right before their eyes. The monkeys finally get a good thing in life and it gets yanked away from them seconds later.

It was alot more dramatic in my head, lol, but I wanted to share this anyways.

Anon I love ur big brain omg

Macaque and Wukong would be in pieces over Seer’s absence. They both lost someone incredibly important to them and now they only have each other. It’s tense and they wanna blame each other but they can’t and they want comfort.

Wukong and Macaque would definitely be closer if this were to ever happen. You wouldn’t see one without the other after Seer leaves.

Macaque is in Wukong’s shadow. Or Wukong shifts to be with Macaque.

Point is; they’re all they got that’s connected to you. And while they can reminiscent about you without crying now, they can’t let you go.

i dream of seer Elain, eyes cloudy and lips budding with the secrets of the Cauldron.

a voice that was male and female, young and old, haunting and alluring

humming a silent melody as she wanders across the solar system, her garden. stars and wind and darkness in full bloom.

a song and an invitation, its siren song

promising hope and healing as vines twine tightly in death’s sweet embrace. her power a thing of secret, lovely beauty.

•

the seer’s song

i am super excited to see Elain’s sight [oracular, mystic, and more] at work. i suspect it functions like the Cauldron itself, especially the siren song it uses to find and influence others through dreams. in CC, the oracle lures Hunt and her voice slithers [like the Cauldron’s power] when she is using her sight. as i have said before, sight and song often twine together in Norse mythology. völva [witches, seers, wise women] used song to see and influence Wyrd [fate]. since we know Sarah draws from this mythology, it would be fitting for Elain’s gift to include both sight and song, which might also explain why she and Azriel are intertwined. it also doesn’t hurt that this floral dress, titled silent melody, used to be on Sarah’s ACOTAR Pinterest board. because we are mind twins, @offtorivendell has theorized about her sight as Singing. she also wondered if the first part of the scene below is from Elain’s dreams [Feyre’s mind drawn into her sister’s while she slept through her daemati powers], surfacing in brief flashes of light and color that include the mighty Cauldron’s illusion.

•

My dreams were a tangled garden, thorns snagging on me as I stumbled through them. I dreamed of the Suriel, bleeding out and smiling. I dreamed of the Weaver’s open mouth ripping into Ianthe while she still screamed. I dreamed of Lord Graysen—so mortal and young—standing at the edge of the camp, beckoning to Elain. Telling her he’d come for her. To come home with him. That he’d found a way to undo what had been done to her—to make her human again.

I dreamed of that Cauldron in the King of Hybern’s war-tent, so dark and slumbering … Awakening as Nesta and I stood there, invisible and unseen.

How it had watched back. Known us.

I could feel it watching me, even then. In my dreams. Feel it extend an ancient, black tendril toward me—

I jolted awake.

[…]

Amren’s bare feet were splattered in mud and grass. “It came here—its power. I can feel it—slithering around. Looking.”

“The Cauldron,” Varian said, brows narrowing. “But—it’s aware?”

“We pried too deep,” Amren said. “Battle aside, it knows where we are as much as we now know its location.”

Nesta raised a hand. “Listen.”

And I heard it then. It was a song and invitation, a cluster of notes sung by a voice that was male and female, young and old, haunting and alluring and—

“I can’t hear anything,” Rhys said.

“You were not Made,” Amren snapped. But we were. The three of us …

Again, the Cauldron sang its siren song.

My very bones recoiled. “What does it want?”

I felt it pulling away—felt it sliding off into the night.

Azriel stepped out of a shadow. “What is that,” he hissed.

My brows rose. “You hear it?”

A shake of the head. “No—but the shadows, the wind…They recoil.”

The Cauldron sang again. Distant—withdrawing.

“I think it’s leaving,” I whispered. Cassian stumbled and staggered for us a moment later, a hand braced on his chest, Mor on his heels. She did not so much as look at me, nor I her, as Rhys told them. Standing together in the dead of night—

The Cauldron sang one final note—then went silent.

The presence, the weight … vanished.

Amren loosed a sigh. “Hybern knows where we are by now. The Cauldron likely wanted to have a look for itself. After we taunted it.”

I rubbed at my face. “Let’s pray that’s the last we see of it.”

Varian angled his head. “So you three … because you were Made, you can hear it? Sense it?”

“It would appear so,” Amren said, looking inclined to tug him back to wherever they’d been, to finish what they’d no doubt still been in the middle of doing.

But Azriel asked softly, “What about Elain?”

•

what about Elain? can she find and influence others in her murky realm where dream and reality entwine? does she ensnare them with a promise of spring the future, sparkling with light and color amidst mist and shadow? a vision of hope shining in the tapestry of void.

seer, wise woman, weaver of fate.

Tcf/lcf Prompt | time cryptid Thames’

{Ps. I haven’t read part 2 yet and I skimmed some parts that I deemed boring and/or was spoiled cause reading 700+ worth of chapters is too tiring and mentally straining}

You know on how people/characters with time related abilities/experience are cryptic or quirky af?

Like I guess if you know the future or keep on regressing it would probably put a mental strain on u or smth. Maybe that’s why I don’t think anyone with a time related ability is sane and would be a little bit unhinge in some way. They would probably be morally dubious/grey at best especially if they experienced death too [regression via death].

So if the Thames Household studies time and the Annual Tree has been passed around[?] in the bloodline, would the Thames’ experience the effects of some type of distortion??

If I remember correctly [I kinda skimmed that part cuz I got lazy and impatient] transmigration is one they haven’t studied deeply. They know more about reincarnation, regression[?] and one lifers [I think they called tribulators? Idk] so it probably means they found a way to study them.

I think that either they found a person that experienced a time anomaly to help with their studies[which is unlikely], or the Thames’ managed to keep on experiencing those time anomalies and documented it themselves for their descendant's to study those said records/journals. I personally think it’s that latter tbh.

If their bloodline does keep on experiencing this sort of thing would they have some eventual adaptation to it? Considering the mind would fracture under pressure due to the maybe frequent time distortion what would it be like? Maybe like Dokja’s [ F O U T H W A L L ]??

Anyways back to the Thames’ being cryptids.

I really like this idea that the Thames are cryptid af. I mean look at the current family;

Cale’s uncle is who knows where. We just know he exist somewhat.

Jour Thames’ consciousness that was on the ap resembles of ‘that quirky girl in high school’ (tho she probly is).

krsCale (who’s technically a Thames via transmigration) is just obsessed with his ‘Slacker Life’ <which will never happen> and money.

ogCale literally pretended to be trash just so that his brother can inherit instead of just asking.

{I know it’s bc of the extended Henitsue’s but he’s a child cut him some slack. Why does the child have to adjust instead of the adults?!?}

Speaking of the cryptids topic. What if the Thames’ got mistaken for a fae or something? Those in the Thames bloodline are ethereally beautiful/pretty that there is a chance that they might get mistaken for a mythical creature. [or maybe there are jk ]

{lmao it reminded at the amount of times cale got mistaken for a dragon}

Personality wise

I kinda want the Thames’ to wear elegantly tailored clothes but with the occasional steampunk clockwork design or accessories here and there like a watermark. Like if Cale would wear a simple yet elegantly pleated tunic and simple pants he would obliged to wear either an hour glass earring or necklace. Or integrating it in the design of the outfit somewhat.

Anyways this is just my ADHD brain rot running wild and need an outlet thank u for listening for my Ted talk :)

THE THRONE AWAITS

#caller number 13 #A SEER WARNS OF A DEADLY FATE

[freebirdyance]

Deep in the woods and next to a stream stands a treehouse. Twisting vines and sunset colored flowers decorate its bark and the surrounding area, a slice of paradise in the middle of endless greens and browns. It's the chosen home of the Oracle, or that's what people ended up calling Yancy over time.

As secluded as his home seemed to be, it did not deter people from finding him over time... and that was alright. It was meant to be, after all. Whether they are drawn to this place of power and magic or happen upon it by 'accident', it was his purpose to help and guide.

Kneeling next to the garden, the seer tends to the weeds, his rich baritone singing a song in the language of the elves. He was expecting visitors today, even if they weren't expecting him.

How about Emiya for the ask thing

Favorite Things

He's just like me fr fr /j

seriously though, I sadly haven't read through FS/N far enough to get to his coolest points, but I know he's a cool guy. also he's weirdly hard to build in d&d, and I enjoy a challenge.

Least Favorite Thing

they put the Tutorial for a game mechanic in one of his interludes. also if you meant a different emiya I'm sorry there's like 20 of them

also: he's just like me fr fr

Favorite Line:

I don't have the exact lines on me but the bit where he starts having an existential crisis after illya doesn't know what a vhs is was great.

brOTP: Cu, Boudicca, Robin Hood

OTP: I'm ace so IDK. ishtar? why not, let's step in a 20-year-old shipping war

nOTP: gilgamesh

Random Headcanon

He did tours of singularities after we finish them up to learn new recipes, a la Geronimo's interlude where he learned magic in england.

Unpopular Opinion

tbh Emiya feels both over- and under-used at the same time? like, almost every member of his family has at least one spirit origin and he's in a ton of events, but it's almost never anything substantial.
