been thinking about god and free will. their hand-in-hand existences. godswill like spacetime. distance as time. been reading about iterative bifurcation. things split in two over and over to fit pseudo-infinite distance into finite spaces. we have 48.000 miles of capillaries in our bodies. this takes up 3% of our body volume. tardis voice: so much bigger on the inside. the doctor was adam and the master was eve, but the master was the older (greater) so he was cain and the doctor was abel. who came first, god or time?

You can take it however you want ,a person who'll be coming into your life or someone you are manifestating , you can refer this pac as confirmation too
Who likes you ?
This is someone in your close circle but still at a distance, this could be a client , a friend of a friend, seems like this person knows you very well , they're observant and sneaky af ,i dont think anyone knows they like you they're the type of person who'll be present when others are gossiping about you just so they could find out more about you lmao , they could follow you on social media and they might keep up with what you post , who you see , who you're talking too this seems like a thing going on for a while , this person is jealous of the attention you get , the reason this person may not be ready to confess is because this person is smart they know you gotta befriend the friend of the crush first , be close to them so they add you in their priority list , they dont want to shoot their shot and miss it , yeah .
This person seems to be crushing on you for a while now , its like one of those crush who you want to move on from but you cant , i'm hearing this person has a lot of fantasies, they idealise you without realising, they notice everything about you , is this person having a good day? Why are they reading that book ? They will literally buy that book just so they could have a chance to discuss it with you .
I'm getting you guys may have small talk here & there and the discussion is always fun and a learning experience, you guys really put your creative intelligence to test you guys may have mercury- venus aspects in composite you may be very good at understanding each other and being philosophical, you have a smooth conversation whenever you guys meet but i'm getting it rarely happens this person always miss a chance to talk to you , lets say they see you grocery shopping and they dont approch to say hi , they just lower their cap so you wouldn't see them . Maybe this person is older than you or just wise , very mature . They want to flex on you so you realise their potential and it comes from a place of insecurity:/ but they also feel like you have low chances to be with them so they want to improve & be the best version of themselves , this person can provide you with a lot of security tho they are kind of successful and resourceful in some way maybe they are innovative and have some hard skills which comes in handy .
This is so cute pile 1 😭its like i'm walking in the hallway just too see them cause they cant get enough of you, they wanna be around, they wanna listen what you got to say they wanna know everything about you ,i feel like even if this person tries to have a conversation it never moves past something serious its just casual stuff, the daily boring stuff. This could be your mom's friend? This person doesn't have that much age difference tbh i would say hardly three ,i really love how this person have a good sense of boundaries they wouldn't make you uncomfortable , they literally overthink every conversation, they hate when you look closed off , they feel very possesive over you and they also feel guilty about their feelings uff this was heavy pile 1 this person needs a lot of reassurance.
Why do they like you ?
They find you cute, they feel like they manifested you , you are their type they see you as the next big thing in their life , they were going through a tough time , they have come of it recently and they have been trying to be their best self they only want best things in their life , they dont want to settle for less ,you could be an escape from their day to day life like the only thing that feels good , this person is trying to discern as well like do i like them ? Or am i just bored ? I feel like this person is confused but stubborn on their decision they feel like its kind of attraction that developed way too fast so thats why they're taking it slow , i would say they're not in denial now but they were in the beginning they would ignore you and they would try to find flaws in you but its kind of hard for them to get over their feelings they could be a fire mars , fire mars do not commit easily they fall fast and hard and they kind of need that sign that okay i need this and i need to take action before i miss out on something good . This person is 100 percent spiritual i keep hearing universe/ soulmate ...this person is really connected to their inner self & trust themselves .
What can they bring to your life ?
A lot of joy , understanding, support, fun moments this person is a giver and they'll be invested in your connection , i strongly feel this will be a long term connection, i feel like it could be very different from your previous one , this person will pay a lot of attention to you and they'll help you out , this person is big on PDA , they're gonna put their best foot forward, I like this person 💁i dont see any bad intentions, they are focused on bringing clarity to the connection at the moment because they have s tendency to self sabotage and universe is like No 🙃 . This person could have long healthy hairs , kind of piercing eyes , chin ? Tattoo , feminine look ah idk i'm getting felix , naruto , jane , they could look similiar to them this person is very shy they dont want to reveal anything that could expose them .
Your personal/ significant number is 3 .
Astrological details: cancer 9h , virgo8h , neptune 8h , libra rising, uranus-pluto , gemini stellium , saturn 3rd(yeah this person feels insecure about their expression of thoughts they feel like they can mess up ), retrograde planets , chiron-venus aspects , gemini venus .

I dont think so this connection is over 🫡☠️i keep speaking as if things are gonna happen, some of you could meet them while doing the most random thing ANYWAYS ...
Hmm interesting this person is not over you guys idk who this is , this person feels like you need new beginning together this could be a friend too who likes you but they maybe in the past has not accepted it . Its like your friends know them , you know their struggle in some way but they're still a mystery this person is resilient and hates losing they're kind of quiet but you should have guts to challenge them, they keep a lot in them they dont express themselves easily ughhh why is this so aqua/scorpio moon combo like no one is judging your ass 😭jk jk
Why do they like you ?
Oh this person is down bad for you , not a lot of people intrigue them they hardly like anyone, this person is head over heels they love your fashion style , they like your messy hair they love your angry face like they love everything about you , check where Sagittarius is rulling in your chart . This person feels like a fan of you 🤷you know when i was reading for who are they and what connection do you share this person was being so cool and nonchalant and now the feelings are literally on my face , you could carry a lot of. .... i dont back down energy ...." and this person loves that , they feel you're a combo , they feel like you challenge them , they want to experience every inch of you *i dont use these words guys its giving Wattpad i'm just chanelling dont judge me 🫠* they want to travel with you like lets go to movies , lets go here & there they want to get you alone , they could be a Aussie? They could be a journalist or they could be your senior, this person could make you shy easily they're just so attentive, i'm seeing someone literally stare tf out of the other person sitting across like bestie chill 😭 i'm telling you guys this person knows how to flirt , you might find them annoying too like let me eat peacefully and this person is like 🥹 you're so cute & its kind of baffling because LIKE YOUR MOUTH IS STUFFED WITH CARAMEL CHOCOLATE AND YOU'RE GIVING THEM WTF LOOK Its chaotic like that 😭✋🏼. This person may have this tendency to smile to themselves and sometimes you just wonder if this bitch is laughing at your ass 😭 . Ok but the amount of emojis its hard for this person to let you know how much they're into you they just cant and this is a struggle you'll have to face (':
You can be frustrated with them as well or other people are tired of their ass because i keep hearing cuss words , this person is hella mad at you and that's how you know i'm talkin' abt that person , they hate how you act so cool , how it looks like nothing effects you .
What can they bring to your life?
This person will bring travel , food and peace in your life , you'll be joyous around them , i'm getting reminded of ailee from tiktok, you'know that couple , you are two sides of the coin you guys are funky together , you guys will do things for each other lets say you never wrote a letter in your life but for this person you will.... lets say you person never cooked for anyone but for you they will , you are kind of polar apart , you might not even like this person at first but then like something happens and you start noticing them but the attraction was always there like you kind of realise you dont pay attention to them when you should?? Something like that *sorry it was kinda confusing* ,its like silent love , you both know you like each other but no one's making the first move like that BOLD move I'm talkin about, yeah you remind me of ailee and how she is with her boyfriend like she's giggling all the time and its so wholesome.
I dont want to end this reading its so cute how this person is ready to change themselves and be uncomfortable with that change for you . No cause GOOD . People should put in effort for their loved ones .
This person could have beard if they're a guy , they could be tall or they could be short too , they have a long oval face , they could have short kinda sliky hairs , they have this droppy eyes like that actor Johnny depp ,they love sunset ? , they could wear baggy clothes, they love accesories , they may have a favourite bag ,they value their things . They could look like lisa , jundu , jori ,n? They could work at sanitorium , jersey , break/separation,movie fan , sophomore. They could like Taylor swift as well or you do but there's someone here who's very much into westeen artists , main stream and their music . They could give reviews?
Your personal/significant number is 6 ,222, 759
Astrological details: leo , Virgo moon , pisces Mercury, libra mars ,saggi rising/moon , 12th placements, december , scorpio11h , pisces placements(they could come off as distant and aloof , a dreamer in their own world) they could be very direct in their communication,leo mars, gemini rising , they could work at McDonald's , yeah you guys may love beach cancer8h , you guys bond deeply .
Song message:
this person is hella mad at you and that's how you know i'm talkin' abt that person , they hate how u act so cool , i'm telling you this person will lose their mind if you leave them , let the universe handle their ego , this person will only be allowed in your space when they're not agressive and demanding , they could act like 5yr old and thats why they're not around you , this person needs to be sure of their actions and intentions because this relationship is very significant for both of you , i'm hearing like dont mess it up and whatsoever. You would know better if its meant for you .

Hello, first of all HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!! I hope you had a happy birthday today !
I recently read your recent fic (The Sun eats the Moon) and the writting was amazing. But I have some question in my mind like :
"After that maybe 'Reader' could take contraception in secret, no ?"
"Is she (or they) gonna end up married to him, and forced to be a housewife or just following him where he goes ?" honestly I think her destiny is tragic no matter the result.
"How did he react to her disappearance, did he tried to find her (honestly my question was why he didn't ask her parents or search where did she goes, but honestly its a good thing that he didn't search) ? And during 10 years, how was to him ?" Maybe the only thing we can say "good" about him is he will only looking toward her and not any women after THAT day...?
And last question, I was wondering what will happen to them after THAT day like I know fr that in the media there will be news, but honestly I think the conclusion is well writting, the fact you first introduce the concept about the Moon and conclued with the detailed about the Moon and how tragic the ending is for them (Moon and 'Reader'). And if you are going to a Geto's it's will also be interesting because he was there to.
Sorry for the long message (eng isn't my first language) and thanks you to read that ! Have a nice day or night !
Thank you!!!!!!All great great great questions! I'll try to answer them as best as I can before giving tooo much away lol:
Why cant Ms.Moon take contraception?
yes Ms.Moon (that's my nickname for the mc now lol) could definitely try to take contraception in secret but I don't think it'll be a good ending if Gojo finds out. In the comments of the fic, many ppl were pointing out that Gojo was intentionally trying to get Ms. Moon pregnant back when they were "dating" buuuut it was sort of an afterthought for him. His logic was 'oh well it doesn't matter either way. you're staying with me regardless' but now that he's seen that Ms.Moon is 100% willing to leave him his next course of action is 'k well can't do that if you have a kid'. It's really not about Ms.Moon having a baby, rather it's insurance that bestie won't just dip again. He cares about you more than any kid you'd make together (awww thats so....sweet???)
Will Gojo force Ms.Moon to get married?
Probably, he's a romantic at heart teehee. But also he loves the attention. Part of the reason he was so effective in "keeping" Ms.Moon (in high school) was largely due to public pressure. Now, where he's basically a celebrity, his obsession with the spotlight has only increased. He's gonna be on talk shows and never shy about your relationship to the press. Gojo will definitely describe your relationship as 'newly reunited highschool sweethearts'. People at work will definitely bombard you for the details, and you were never one to be defiant so you'd probably just mutely agree with him (that's why he loves you so much: you're so agreeable). He'd make sure your wedding is the biggest celebration of the year. And then he'd drag you to Aruba or something for yalls honeymoon:)
Why didn't Gojo try to find Ms. Moon?
He did! When you dipped (graduated early and left for college) he went ballistic. I totally forgot to add this in, but Gojo is a huge reason why Ms.Moon doesn't talk to family anymore/anyone in that town. You didn't even tell your parents what college you were headed off to. I bet Gojo harrassed your family for a bit, because he's Gojo Satoru, but when it's clear you just disappeared I bet he was depressed. As terrible as he was, he did love you. It was also a pride thing for him. No one's ever 'won' against him, and you technically did. He'd greatly underestimated you and you got away. I bet he'd be a little impressed at that. I think in the fic it was greatly implied that he was searching for you buuuut eventually he forgot because he got so busy with his life. He still thought about you, but its was probably more along the lines of 'damn, can't believe i lost that bitch' And then you unceremoniously fell from the sky. Surprising, but he's grateful. It was fate to meet you again or was it? *cackles in omniscient author*
The Aftermath
Yeah, you're not living a normal life after that ever again. You're moving in with him, he's getting that marriage certificate ready bye bye freedom. I don't think he'd lock you up, buuuut having a security detail on you at all times, putting a tracker in your phone, and constantly calling/texting you is pretty close to life in prison right? EVENTUALLY, he'd limit your social network, then not-so-gently encourage you to quit your job. By the end of it, you'll be his little housewife but I think he'd be nice about it. (kind of)

just thinking thoughts about how getting force-electrocuted would just completely fuck up ones body, nerves getting fried, muscles not quite working the way they once did, and how that might affect hearing
afterwords, when everyone is getting checked over by medical, they do what they can to help luke's muscles and body but they overlook his hearing because he can kind of get a sense of what they're saying through the force on top of lip reading. so his damaged hearing slips through the cracks for other, more life threatening cases. and luke just brushes it off thinking its just something that'll wear off
edit: i have a fic up about this now, its on my profile >:)
but 5 years later it still hasn't, if anything its gotten worse but he's so busy with rebuilding and fighting off remnants of the empire that he just cant find time to go through a ton of hearing tests so he just makes do with using the force and lipreading. it also adds to his mysterious jedi persona and gets people to leave him alone which, after everything, is what he wants. r2 isnt a problem cuz hes loud and makes sure luke is looking at him when hes talking so he doesnt really know how bad it is (r2 is also a vault of personal secrets so even if he knew how bad it was he'd say nothing)
then din happens and he cant lipread him and he also cant get a good fix on what the hell he wants through the force cuz the man is like a force dead-zone. luke does well enough with small sentences and such, enough to do small talk with minimal stumbling but then din starts coming to yavin to see grogu and starts spending time there and thats when luke realizes he's screwed himself.
because now, when theres nothing life threatening happening and din's emotions are quiet, theres nothing spilling through the cracks to latch onto. and the man speaks quiet enough as-is so luke is floundering. he just ends up realizing "oh shit my hearing is really fucked, what do i do? i cant keep this up cuz im giving him the wrong impression and i want to be nice because he's been nothing but nice"
finally one day luke is sitting working on a piece of something for r2 and din walks up behind him and calls his name a few times with no response so he taps luke and startles the bejeezus out of him, which confuses din cuz like... he wasnt being quiet, he stepped on a branch and was telling r2 to go away.
so luke comes clean after a moment and din's like "well, i know tusken sign if that would help" but luke doesnt know any. so din starts teaching him tusken sign after grogu's lessons
and because im a sucker for the parties, theres a big party for the new republic and luke brings din because he cant go alone and leia wants to meet him. through the whole party luke is making do with lip reading and the force, and din is talking to leia when she asks din something about how grogu's training is going and din turns to luke and taps his shoulder and starts signing and luke responds then translates to leia what he said and leia's just like "uh. why are you signing?" and luke freezes because he did not think that through and din covers for him making some excuse about how he didnt know if it was ok to talk jedi training in public which leia half buys because she knows her brother but its also not a bad reason especially for a large public gathering.
so she's suspicious but buys it and they make it through the rest of the party alright and get back to yavin and thats as far as i've thought rn but oooh the thoughts be thinking

here are some small atsumu boyfriend headcanons
cant cook alone, he needs you there otherwise he refuses. its not even that hes bad at it he’s actually really good he just likes to have your company with him at all possible times
he buys you those matching blanket hoodies and will not take his off no matter what, its so cute to see this big buff volleyball player absolutely just drowning in a fluffy hoodie with avocados all over it
however, as cute as he may seem, hes still a little shit at heart. if you suggest a film for him to watch - with or without you - he will purposely not watch it until you either let it go or force him to, he has a whole list on his notes app titled “DO NOT ENGAGE!!!” just so he knows what ones to avoid the little fucker
he always has cold hands and feet and he puts them on you when you least expect it, mostly when you’re peacefully cuddling him
lovesss late night drives <333 every saturday night you both drive around the city listening to his specially curated playlist with a take away; its his favourite way to wind down after a stressful day
ass guy 100%, he cant keep his hands off of you for shit. he likes to hold both sides of your hips as he tries to squeeze past you just to get a feel (¬_¬)
like sakusa, i believe he also had braces growing up, when he was around 11-14 but it is a very sensitive subject for him as he used to get picked on for having them because osamu didnt :((
walks around the house in either a compression top (for obvious reasons) or grey joggers that rest justtt below his v-line (for obvious reasons)
he is always stocked up on toilet paper for some odd reason, like a weird amount of toilet paper and he wont tell you why??? he hardly even goes through it, its just there for months on end
he does that thing where he leans agains the door frame with his arm above his head instead of actually walking inside because he thinks it looks hot. which it does
has a collection of “really wacky and cool” socks (in his words) and every holiday you get him another pair to add to his collection
if you insult him for whatever reason or pull his hair please be prepared for him to moan, he literally thinks its the funniest shit ever
all my haikyuu boyfriend headcanons!
thankyou for reading! i hope you enjoyed it!<3

Omg! Just read your jealous hc and this gave me an idea. Can you do something where Neteyam and the reader are best friends (he’s in love with her, obviously) and Ao’nung notices. He tries to flirt with the reader just to get on his nerves and he succeeds his mission. Neteyam tries to stay away from her for a while because he can’t stand the thought of her with someone else and everytime he sees her is just pain. She notices and question him about it and he finally confesses. (If you could do, it would be great! Sorry if this is confusing, english is not my first language)
of course!! i’m sorry isnt the best or seems a little rushed, im still getting used to writing longer fics! but i still hope you enjoy<3
neteyam x fem!reader
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
you and neteyam were inseparable. ever since you guys were kids, you two were always around each other. as you grew older your relationship with neteyam had only grew stronger, and now that you two were new to the metkayina clan, you only had each other
it was painfully obvious to everyone else that neteyam liked you. though for some reason, you were the only one that couldn’t tell. i mean sure he’d openly flirt with you here and there, but you always just brushed it off
aonung on the other hand, indeed did not just “brush it off.” he first caught onto neteyams little crush on you when he saw neteyam smiling at you and looking down at the ground while smiling when you weren’t watching
ever since he saw that moment, all the other hints were so clear. he noticed every time neteyam smiled at you or watched you in awe
he would’ve found it cute, honestly.. only if it was anyone other than neteyam. and what better way to piss neteyam off than to flirt with his beloved.
aonung, roxto, and tsireya were showing you and neteyam around the reef along with lo’ak and tuk. it was so, so beautiful. you wanted to see all of it, the entire reef. but your swimming and breathing capabilities were getting in the way of that.
the four of you rose to the surface to catch your breaths, aonung, roxto, and tsireya following shortly after. tsireya understands you guys can’t swim or hold your breath as well as them, but aonung and roxto can’t help but let out a small laugh
“stop that aonung” tsireya hits him on the head, trying to knock some sense into him
his smile slowly fades but widens once again when you two make eye contact. “you’re right tsireya, im sorry. it’s not their fault they can’t swim as well as us. it’s a shame, truly, i would’ve loved to show y/n around the reef, but i wouldn’t wanna tire her out.” you vaguely hear sarcasm in his voice, but you’re too busy focused on his words to care about his tone of voice
you mouth falls agape and you stare right into aonungs eyes. “no no that wouldn’t tire me out, i just cant keep up with you, that’s all. i would love to explore the reef some more.”
“is that so? well then, what do you say i show you around, just the two of us. ill hold your hand the whole time so that you don’t get lost.” aonung flashes a rather flirtatious smile, and your face gets hot.
“just the two of you? really?” neteyam turns to focus all his attention on you. “how do you know he won’t leave you stranded all alone. you barely know each other.” the irritation in neteyams voice is clear, and the glare in his eyes is sharp.
“neteyam, calm down. do you really think the chiefs son would do that to a guest?” you respond, confused by neteyams sudden annoyance.
“she’s right, my father would kill me. i just want to show her how beautiful the reef is. no harm in that, right?” aonung adds on, purposely sneaking a wink at you at you to provoke neteyam even more.
neteyam was pissed. was he doing this on purpose? worst part was, you didn’t even seem to mind it. in fact, you were excited to go with him.
“cmon bro it’ll be fine, let’s just go back and find kiri.” lo’ak says trying to ease neteyam, clearly catching onto his anger.
neteyam doesn’t say another word. he just looks at you for a moment before swimming off with the rest of them.
how long has it been? an hour? two? you and aonung finally finished exploring the reef, and goodness was it gorgeous. you cant wait to tell neteyam all about what you saw, that is.. if you can find him.
everyone was gathered on the beach except for him. lo’ak, kiri, tsireya, tuk, all of them. where was neteyam? he was always the first to welcome you back after you went somewhere, but he was nowhere in sight.
“lo’ak, do you know where neteyam is?”
“nope, once we got back from the reef he left and i haven’t seen him since.”
how strange.
perhaps he’s just tired. he hasn’t gotten much rest since the arrival here, so maybe he went to sleep early. it’s fine, you’ll talk to him tomorrow.
it’s been almost two days and neteyam still hasn’t talked to you. at first you gave him space in case he truly was mad at you, but now it was just getting tiring, and you were sick of it. it was obvious something is upsetting him, and you were gonna find out what.
you observed him as he talked to lo’ak on the beach. it was already eclipse, and you watched the way his spots faintly glowed under the dark sky. there was a nervous feeling gnawing at your stomach and you just couldn’t figure out why. “it’s just neteyam,” you remind yourself.
lo’ak started walking back to the hut, and you took the chance to finally speak with neteyam. you paused for a moment before you continued your steps towards him. he looked serene, beautiful even, but there was a glint of sadness in his eyes.
“neteyam,” you mumbled out, your footsteps matched your voice, soft. he shifted his body towards you, his back facing the ocean with his arms crossed. he had the same look on his face he did just seconds ago. you exhaled slowly, a light breeze blowing your hair. you could feel his stare on you, it was intimidating. you finally lifted your head to meet his eyes. his eyes reflected the stars and for a moment you forgot what you were gonna say.
“neteyam, did i do something?” your voice was hesitant at first, but your pace sped up, “i mean- you’ve been ignoring me, haven’t you? you’ve never ignored me. what’s going on.” you let out a deep breath that you didn’t realize you were holding.
he didn’t say anything for a moment. he just stared into your eyes with no visible expression. “do you have feelings for aonung,” he finally lets out.
what?
what?
did he really just ask that? you stare at him with utter disbelief for a moment. “i’m sorry, what?” you scoff. “you don’t talk to me for almost two days and that is the first thing you say?”
“im giving you your answer.”
“no, no you are not. is this some sort of awful joke?”
he lets out a breathy laugh, and you can see his body tense up, “you just don’t get it do you?? how much more obvious do i need to make it for you to finally get the damn hint?” his arms fall to his sides and his voice becomes more assertive, “for fucks sake i like you, y/n, i’ve loved you for years, and you still haven’t noticed?”
oh.
the both of you fall silent. seems you aren’t the only one in shock, neteyam takes a step back as if he couldn’t believe what he just said either. you stand still for a good minute, unsure of what to do. perhaps you shouldn’t have brushed off all the hints after all. the wind gently blows his braids and he stands tall. you could admire him for hours. you practically already have. you always find yourself unknowingly staring at the way his eyes shine in the sun, or the way he smiles, or the way he’s so, effortlessly, alluring.
but right now was not a moment to just stare at him. your heart is racing and the nervous feeling comes back. “neteyam..”
“no i’m sorry just forget what i said i didnt-“
“neteyam,” you cut him off, “i see you.”

Hero!Ghoap x God!Reader brainrot
this is mainly about ghoap cuz i didnt focus on them in the first post and they deserve love too!! and i wanna add backstory :33 based off this post i made and i think i want them to be childhood friends!! (its one of my favorite tropes im sorry </3)
once again this is just word vomit !! not my best but it must be shared :DD but also!! let me know if you have any ideas for what reader should be the god of cuz i really have no ideas and i wanna add more details to them!!
Tumblr media
definingly have the vibe they would've meet by running into each other playing in a field when they were very young and just ended up sticking together. simon found comfort in johnny's presence and just sort of started following him everywhere he went with johnny just completely okay with dragging this boy around cuz!! he gets to have fun with his friend!! :DD sadly though they have to have reason to become fighters for plot reasons </33 their village gets destroyed, burnt and looted with few survivors left. theyre both distraught and angry with johnny openly wanting to track down the people behind the attack and fuck them up (simon too but hes silent about it) maybe johnny starts getting ready to start that hunt without telling anyone but simon can just read him perfectly and just pulls him aside to tell him that he's coming too.
I feel like along their hunt they would stop and take care of anyone that were causing issues, probably with just small trouble makers but as they become stronger and more experienced they deal with whole gangs of people (they end up getting the names ghost and soap along the way somehow) they become more renowned for their strength and victories that even cities far off know them!! im thinking the group that destroyed their village became an army and overconfident to the point of disrespecting the gods (probably not all but definitely some big ones) so when ghost and soap become bigger names they are given the upperhand with the backing of the gods who wish to put the group back into place. they basically get to the level of demigods !!
romance wise though,,, giggles,,, somewhere along their journey after a hard fight they would confess while patching each other up, the concern for each other far outweighing the fear of rejection <33 the gentle touch of making sure theyre still there and the whispers of love would be so soft after they know its a mutual love omg. their routines change a little afterwards too!! like simon giving johnny little trinkets to have in his pockets (probably something handmade when he cant sleep) and johnny braiding part of simon's hair before a fight (maybe he braids a piece of simon's hair into his own braid and his hair into simon's?)
I don't think they would actively worship one particular god? they would give offerings every so often as thanks for the blessing or in hope of getting some luck with something (finding info or just having good weather) but they are mainly on their own for the most part. yes they are favored more than others but it doesnt mean the gods really care about them yknow? they both know theyre just a means to an end for some of them :((
so when you start looking out for them theyre both just :OO you actually care about them outside of what they can do!! you help them with small things!! your watching eyes comfort simon when he cant sleep!! you guide johnny to peaceful areas for him to relax and draw at!! you send your associated animal to keep watch if they ever both crash after a fight!! they start to add stuff to their routines that relate to you in some way :33 making crafts of your symbols and having one with them for "good luck" or making a small spot for you at every camp they make or talking to you (aka the open air of your spot) about their plans and what they wanna do next!!
idk man brainrot and lack of sleep are getting to me!! im going to rotate these two in this au in my head for the next month ^-^

HiI was looking at Maellus broomquet, Ace was asking where would he like to visit and Maellus said a castle. I just realized the castle he wanted to see could it be Meleanor’s castle! That’s pretty sad that he cant freely goto that castle.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oooh, that’s a pretty interesting (and plausible) theory 🤔 I took a look back at Malleus’s Broomquet vignettes to double check, and some of the details happen to line up with what we know (or is implied) about Wild Rose Castle…
***Book 7 main story spoilers below the cut!!***
Firstly, Malleus mentions that not a lot of people have lived in the castle for a long time now. It implies they are ruins, and for some reason no one goes near it or even bothers making a tourist attraction of it. This is also true of Wild Rose Castle, which Lilia suspects has had an enchantment placed on it by diurnal fae to keep humans from disturbing it.
Malleus then adds that there are history books which would feature this castle at the height of the country's prosperity, meaning it must be of significant historical importance and that this country would not retain that prosperity (alluding to maybe losing the coming war). We know from book 7 that Wild Rose Castle is specifically where Briar Country's crown princess resides, and she is someone of great political importance. It is important that Malleus specifies the textbooks would depict the castle "at the height of the country's prosperity", as we also learn in book 7 that both the textbooks and Lilia himself don't elaborate on what befell their country and Malleus's mother during the human-fae war. The war, then, must occur after this period of prosperity, as Wild Rose Castle would fall into ruin after it. (The image we see of Wild Rose Castle later on also does, in fact, confirm that it is in ruins and abandoned:)
Tumblr media
This all makes sense chronologically speaking, especially if we consider that Briar Country (ie the entire continent) may have been divided up and claimed by human victors following the war. This would explain the dotted lines (drawn over in red) carving up the landmass in the Twisted Wonderland world map, and how Briar Valley itself only makes up a tiny portion of the continent. Malleus is constantly referred to as the heir of Briar Valley, not the continent, which implies his kingdom fell from grace after losing his mother and the conflict with humans. (By the way, I have a separate post elaborating on this “Briar Country -> Briar Valley” theory; it’s here if you want to read it!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If you look at where Wild Rose Castle falls on a map and then compare it to the modern day Twisted Wonderland map, it seems that the Wild Rose Castle (green X) would fall into an area outside of Briar Valley. It's possible, then, that that territory now belongs to some other nation. That would mean Malleus cannot enter that other nation's land without jumping through legal hoops. It's not "his" land anymore, so he doesn't have a right to visit it whenever he so chooses to. Seeing as he easily waves off any spell or curse thrown at him, I don't think Malleus not being able to visit certain castles is due to inability to overcome magic or other enchantments, but because as crown prince, he has to respect the territorial rights of other countries.
It feels sad hearing Malleus talk about visiting ruins. He wonders about the life that once resided there, the balls and ceremonies in them... and now there's only lonely vestiges of those glory days. A mother he never had the chance to know, a great and bloody conflict waged before he was even born... His interests end up being ironically tragic, really 😔

Tunnel Vision ~ (Konig x Fem!Reader)
Tumblr media
Drinks and Drops ~ Part 2 of the Tunnel Vision series
Summary: You haven't run into the tall, silent König very often during your time in Taskforce 141, so when he starts showing up around every corner, you cant decide if it's for the better or worse.
(lots of fluff, no use of "y/n", slowburn, smut later on ;D)
I glance down at my phone, reading 8:07, as I stand in front of the pub. A droplet of rain falls onto my screen and I hastily wipe it on my jeans as another cold drop hits my neck. I dodge under the awning and open the door, chilly air and the smell of beer wafting over me. I almost laugh at how noticeable the group I’m joining is, from Ghost’s “more casual” mask to the tall figure sitting with its back to me… huh. I pause, as Ghost is almost always the tallest amongst our party. Clarity is delivered swiftly as the figure notices Ghost’s gaze and turns to look at me. My stomach seems to churn to a freezing halt. What I had taken to be a head hidden in shadow is actually a black mask, and suddenly the unusual height makes sense. I catch Soap’s eager eyes and force myself not to turn and leave. I make a beeline to the chair Soap has saved for me at his side, avoiding the steadfast blue eyes that follow my path. Unfortunately, my seat is sandwiched between Soap and König, though König is sitting more closely to Horangi, leaving a wide gap around the table. My stomach sinks and I think back to our last interaction, wondering if his memory of it is just as vivid.
“Optics!” Soap greets, and my stomach unfreezes slightly. “Was worried you’d bailed after all.” he grins and scoots over so I can pull out the chair and sink into it. 
“You have no faith in me,” I scoff, my voice coming out more quietly than I’d intended. König’s stare makes me shrink back into my chair. As I look up, I see Ghost staring intently at me, too. I raise an eyebrow at him and his eyes narrow beneath his balaclava, which he refuses to take off, even off duty. 
“You’ve given us enough reason to worry, hermit,” Ghost laughs gruffly. I purse my lips at the nickname and try very hard not to glance at König, who has been characteristically silent. “Have you met Horangi?” Ghost gestures at the man across from me, who grins and waves a little. He’s wearing his dark glasses, but his nose and mouth are exposed. I shake my head. 
“We’ve never talked,” I say, and Horangi nods. 
“You’re the one who keeps making me restock the earl gray tea,” he says, with a hint of a smirk. I grin back and raise my eyebrows. “What, you thought you were the only tea drinker?” He leans forward teasingly and takes a sip from his beer. I laugh and feel the ice in my limbs start to soften, still pointedly avoiding König’s eyes.  
“They drink black coffee like maniacs,” I gesture to Soap, Ghost, and Roach, who all scoff in indignation. Roach mumbles something about not drinking ‘flower water’ and the table laughs. 
“Oh, and this is König,” Horangi adds, and gestures to the man sitting to his left. I finally allow myself to turn my head and glance at him. His massive stature makes him look almost comical situated on the barstool. He looks only slightly different than usual, wearing a tight black t-shirt with some band Iogo I’ve never seen and too-tight khaki pants. He, too, adorned his mask over street clothes. I wonder briefly what outsiders at the bar assume of a man big enough to be a rhino with a black shirt over his head. I remember suddenly that I’m being introduced and I nod at him. He inclines his head slightly back. 
“We’ve met,” he mutters, to my surprise. I nod again, unsure what to say. I look back to my right, where Ghost is still eyeing me curiously. I shoot him a ‘stop-that’ look, and turn my head back. “So, why do they call you Optics?” Horangi fills the strained silence that follows König’s words. I open my mouth to respond, but Soap beats me to it. 
“She’s practically nocturnal, this one,” he snorts and nudges me hard in the side. “When we first met, we never saw her out of those night vision goggles. So, Optics.” 
“I suggested ‘vampire’, but I was shot down,” Roach grumbles with a grin, drawing a laugh from around the table. I turn my head quickly to give him an offended stare. 
“Tell me you’re joking,” I try not to smile, my mouth still hanging open. 
“He’s not.” I can hear Ghost’s smirk through his mask and I stare around at them accusingly. “Oh, don’t look so injured, we changed it, didn’t we?” 
“Yeah, you can’t complain,” Roach pointed at me sternly. “You're not the one called Roach.” he smacks the table and Horangi chuckles. The air now feels so full of laughter that I can almost forget my earlier embarrassment. 
“I feel lucky now,” Horangi laughs, gesturing to himself and König. 
“What does Horangi mean? Is it just a nickname?” I ask, taking a sip of the beer Soap ordered in my absence. 
“It means ‘tiger’ in Korean,” he responds. “König is ‘king’, right?’ He prompts his friend, who nods in response. “I call him ‘silent but deadly’,” he adds, rousing a hearty laugh from everyone else around the table. König shoots him a harassed look, but his shoulders shake slightly as well. A smile pulls at my lips. 
Halfway through my glass of beer, the awkwardness and regret of before melts, eased by Soap’s stream of banter and the cold sensation of drink spreading through me. The only thing unchanged is the anxious shiver that shoots through me when König’s eyes find mine. Though his presence no longer unnerves me, there is some thrill in his company that dries my mouth and quickens my pulse. He doesn’t glance my way often, and speaks even less, but the mere proximity is enough to daunt me. At this distance I notice how unusually long his eyelashes are, how his shirt expands with every breath, how his mask flutters when he laughs. These observations humanize him slightly, making him seem less like a mountain, and more like a man unreadable under his mask. He nearly catches my gaze once and I quickly look away to drain the rest of my glass. 
In the course of the next hour, empty glasses began filling the table and König’s chair closes the gap, almost unnoticeably moving closer to my chair throughout the night. I hoped tonight gave him somewhat of a better impression, anxious to wipe away our first encounter. When my phone reads 9:48, Ghost is the first to break apart the gathering, standing after finishing his fourth drink. 
“You lot keep me out too late,” he accuses, giving us all a stern look. 
“Aw, Ghost,” Soap groans and lets his head fall back dramatically. “It doesn’t say anywhere that Lieutenants can’t have fun.” He tries to coax Ghost back to the table. 
“I think you’ll find it does,” he responds, gruffly. “Unless you want to deal with me at 7 am after a short night?” Soap frowns, but seems to decide his Lieutenant’s logic is sound enough. 
“Fine, fine,” He joins Ghost, pushing in his chair with a scrape, but sways a little. The rest of the group seem to collectively agree, however grudgingly, and begin departing. I follow my team through the front door, but stop dead at the thick wall of rain enclosing the awning. Soap, Ghost and Roach seem to find no issue with the downpour and walk straight into the storm. 
“We’re running for it!” Roach calls over his shoulder, and they take off into the rain, almost immediately made invisible in the sheet of water. I stand alone for a moment, feeling rather stupid for walking from base without checking the weather beforehand. I glance down regretfully at my white tank top and curse under my breath. Should I just wait it out…? 
“Am I the only one who drove?” a figure appears at my shoulder. I turn to look at Horangi, who watches the rest of my team depart with great amusement. 
“The only one with sense, apparently,” I reply with a bitter grin. Horangi smiles back at me. 
“See you around, Optics,” and he, too, ducks into the rain. I watch his figure grow fainter, bowing into a black car down the street. I sigh and stare fiercely at the rain like it might vanish at my glare. I nearly jump when the last member of our group joins me beneath the awning.
“Did you walk?” König asks, his low voice barely audible over the drum of raindrops. I chance a glimpse up at him. He’s looking down at me from the corner of his eye.
“Yeah,” I respond, feeling small and ridiculous standing beside him. “Stupid, huh?” He shakes his head. 
“No, not if you bring an umbrella,” He responds and, like magic, produces one gripped in his closed left hand. Without elaboration, he steps out from under the shade and opens it, holding it awkwardly to his right, making space for another person beneath. I stare for a moment at the gesture, then remember to move my feet and join him beneath the umbrella. It’s smaller than I would’ve liked. My head is nearly bumping into his bicep as we begin to walk, though he seems to be treading carefully to avoid collisions. “You don’t like the rain?” he guesses quietly, stopping before we cross the street.
“Normally, I would. But… um,” I glance back up into his eyes, which appear bemused. “You know, white shirt, water…” I trail off, letting him put the pieces together. Immediately he nods with understanding and quickly looks away. I can’t tell if this is sudden shyness or merely caution before crossing the street as he peers over my head for cars. When he decides it’s safe for us to cross, he mutters something faintly and rests a large hand on the small of my back to make sure I keep pace. I hardly notice when we reach the other side for all I can feel is his warm hand pressing into me. I feel almost unsteady when he abruptly pulls away, the absence of his touch leaving the spot cold. The rest of our walk to base is silent, though it doesn’t feel quite as unpleasant as before. He glances down at me every once in a while, making sure the umbrella covers my frame, walking deliberately to accommodate my short stride. 
“You’ve helped me out twice now,” I mutter as we near the front doors, feeling an obligation to say something, but at a loss for anything substantial. He looks surprised. 
“It’s no problem,” he says mildly. 
“Well, anyway, thank you,” I respond and crane my neck to meet his eyes.
“Any time,” he murmurs, his voice growing oddly soft. Something about walking away feels wrong, so I remain rooted to the spot, continuing to stare up into his mask. After a questionably long silence, I bid him a quiet goodnight and step through the double doors, feeling like I missed something important.

HI UM i really admire you and your art and i was wondering --
so i really love the way you format your comics, its really straight-forward and lets the reader process every word with ease (which i think adds to the impact of the writing), and that one rue comic with the split colors for the parentheses... how do you do it without making it look so messy?? to bring up another example, the hide-and-seek comic- i love how subtle and genius the call back to hiding behind the door was, it blew my mind... i take a lot of inspiration from the way you format and lay out your comics but for some reason i cant wrap my head around how you do so much with so little (in reality this might just be the result of me wanting to add so many little details for others to find , while being conflicted on keeping it simple, and,,, AGH...) for context : im trying to make a comic about isolation, but i keep filling up the page because i want to add things - when really i know i should be keeping it simple... but other than removing unnecessary details, i want to know what else you do to make your comics so clean and simple yet it rips out the emotions from your heart and has you stare at it as it beats. like... i want that type of impact!! i want to affect others on such an intense level!! i want to induce emotions!!! but how?
(sorry this was long, HAHAHA i just want to drive my point home- again with the 'wanting to add a lot of stuff to prove a point' thing but i digress)
ok first of all that is a huge compliment and it means v much to me, thank you 😭🙏❤️❤️
tbh for me the answer of keeping things uncluttered is paying attention to spacing and eye direction. Spacing depends on timing, if you want an action to happen slowly for instance you can make the space between panels longer, or take more panels for someone to complete an action. There's tricks for directing your eye, if you ever read anyth about focal points (eg biggest contrast, triangular shapes pointing towards what's important), but really with comics I keep in mind you're reading left to right and top to bottom.
The ruehob comic is actually simpler than you think 😅 I already knew which text had to be on the left and right with august's text post. And after that the "lanes" were so narrow there weren't a lot of complicated things I could do, just make sure you still read left to right and saunter vaguely downwards.
when you talk about putting little details, that doesn't necessarily have to distract people. Like I honestly applaud you having the drive to do detailing. You just have to make sure your compositions allow for it. Like if you think about ghibli backgrounds, they're elaborate and beautiful af.
For smth about isolation, my first thought was that you can draw a person in a setting alone among a bunch of objects, for instance. If you keep the person small but surround them with a bunch of detailed objects, it could feel very lonely. Just make sure the person still stands out b/c they're what's important, so for example the background stuff is a less saturated colour, or the person is the least detailed thing on the page. I think that's the main thing, you just have to make sure the things important to what you're saying stand out. Clarity is rlly half the battle when I'm laying things out haha
In school our teacher called this "killing your babies" because it sucks when you work hard on a cool drawing and it just doesn't work out😂This also still happens to me, it's actually partly why I keep things simple so I can work fast and throw out less
Here is a timestamp from supereyepatchwolf's video about Chainsaw Man, which has some of the coolest fuckin layouts
He's got other stuff that talks about manga and how eye direction can work and what cool stuff has been done. Off the top of my head his vid about one piece and his vid about gantz have helped me understand how to cause Emotions. Also I think he has one about Junji Ito that specifically talks about how details can make you scared, if you're into that 😂
hope this helps!

When opla was announced I was guarded, but trailers and learning that Oda would have first and last word about everything made me hopeful.
But I knew that live action are never for the actual die hard fans.
Too much need to be cut because of time, as real actors cant look like they only age two years for 26 years, and some cartoon stuff doesnt translate well to live action *cough* garps fist of love *cough*
So I was able to convince my friend to watch opla with me.
She had read the manga when she was little, up to syrup village, so she was excited to see Kuro because she actually liked him back when she read it.
I was mostly there just to observe my friends reaction to it instead.
My favorite moment was watching her freak out after the "grandpa?" reveal.
I dont like that Garp was included that early on, I didnt mind him being there at rogers execution. But more than that seemed too much. I watched some Netflix guy explaining that they wanted to add a reason why the strawhat had to keep moving from island to island, but no marine would do because who would bother chasing a pirate crew with no bounty. I understand that reasoning. Still dont like it, but I understand.
But my friends reaction made it all better.
Did you know netflix wanted a romance between Nami and Zoro? Thank god Oda was there to stop it.
Also my friend and I quote "Oregano is for savages!" a lot now.
I'm truly glad you liked it anon and I do understand the excitement that came with it, but I honestly could not stand it. Nearly every scene and every line was like "Sanji wouldn't say that. Nami wouldn't do that. Why is this happening? Luffy definitely wouldn't say that."
An adaptation must adapt to its medium, true, but that is not what this did. This was an insanely loose reinterpretation that took so much charm away for me. I've talked about it on this Tumblr tons now but I've finally had the time to watch through all of it now that the hype's died down, and it just made me angrier per episode?
They had to shorten things down, but they included so many new scenes that added nothing? They had to explain the Strawhats going from island to island... WHY? They literally had a spine to go off, the original property had them going from island to island to find a crew and get to the grand line. That's literally a very solid reason. WHY did they need any marines chasing them? It just sounded like an excuse to add a fan favourite character so the Garp fans could scream about it.
And I've said this many times, but Oda being part of the process genuinely means nothing to me. Netflix infamously do not listen to their creators, and not only did they admit Oda HATED the Garp addition and they STILL added him, you can tell so much of his original vision was thrown aside for non-anime fan audience convenience. Usopp and Sanji felt like side characters for god's sake, Buggy felt comically evil for a LIVE ACTION, Mihawk's fight was literally so empty due to the fact no one was THERE? NAMI was the one who yelled she believes in Zoro and they'll always be friends??
I truly do not believe Oda would agree to most of that, and considering we know he was ignored for Garp, we know for sure he was definitely ignored for many other things.
As always, if you loved it, great! I'm glad the excitement was met. Maybe I'm cynical, maybe it's not to my tastes, but it screams Netflix cash cow to me and the whole time I watched it I thought "This is not One Piece at all."
As a reinterpretation? Great!
As an adaptation? It failed miserably. None of the characters felt like themselves and the additional scenes were so nothing. Sorry for the sour reply anon but for those on here who know, I indeed have a sore spot for that entire production.
I honestly think a lot of people got blinded by the pretty actors and the millions of dollars that went into production and promotion to really look at it for what it was trying to be.

hiii could i get J, P, Q an U for Slender? thanks! and i hope your day is going really well >_<
More Fluff Alphabet /w Slenderman but these letters!
my days been pretty okay! slow, but not terrible :O gonna be slow from tomorrow until next saturday so i might promote requests being open ponders not proof read!! though to be fair i dont. think i proof read any of my stuff
Tumblr media
J (JEALOUSY)-
he can get rather possessive in general when it comes to you or his proxies so uh
don't like, try to make him jealous on purpose, it doesn't end well for anyone involved. actually don't try to tick off forest demons in general
i know i keep saying stuff like "oh god forbid someone make you uncomfortable" in these but like. slenderman is still this huge powerful creature, i know my interpretation on him is a bit silly n different but he still has roots in the 2010s fandom interpretation, you know?
there will be... a mess... is what im saying
in the case that someone is being weird with you, he's less jealous and more angry, though, of course not angry at you
though there will be hard boundaries set in place if you try to rile him up on purpose, he doesnt want to waste his time on someone whos going to toy with him like that. both in a "hey thats not really cool or healthy of you to do to me or our relationship" and also "im fucking slenderman im a old ass powerful demon, who do you think you are?"
P (PETNAMES)-
he calls you; love, darling, my dear
he likes being called; really anything under the sun, because as long as its something coming from your mouth hes pleased, because it ultimately means hes yours and youre his
q (QUESTION)-
for more context see this post! dives into lore stuff for my au/hcs but it'll help add context to this segment!:
here!
hope the link copied well enough </3 if not you can find it on my blog, titled "all entwined in one web" or something along those lines
anyways
some variant of "why do you stay"
you could have decided to be with literally anyone else, but you chose a solitary self loathing demon who eats people in order to survive, created for the sole purpose to cause issues and harm to humanity
on one hand he wants you to stick around and keep him company; but on the other hand he wants you as far away from him as possible so you can go out and live your own life without being in danger or having to put up with his whole deal
please give him lots of reassurance, its going to take a lot for him to stop asking those kinds of questions; assuming he stops asking at all
U (UPSET)-
i feel like him being upset is similar to the jealousy part of this post, but just more. broad. like hes not going to take shit if youre going to try to upset him on purpose
hes more patient if its accidental, though. diving into a previous fluff alphabet, if its an accident and something that can be helped in terms of future instances hes likely to work through it with you. he knows his time with you is short, if his partner is a mortal, and he doesnt want to waste that time
soft slenderman my beloved, let this man have complex emotions and desires and whatnot
kinda just. vanishes when he gets real upset, though, since he cant control his anger that well and generally just doesnt want you to see him like that- best way to help him like that is to just give him time
if youre the one upset hes going to listen to you, if you need someone to talk to. man of few words, advice can go fifty fifty
either gives good advice or not good advice; and thats on him being around for a long time but not really spending a lot of that time you know... interacting with others in a meaningful way
bonus if you still live at your place he's going to do a bunch of your chores for you. in. varying degrees of success, similar reasoning as above since he doesnt really have a home of his own to do like. dishes or laundry at. still bouncing between if im going to have the mansion be a part of this au of mine or not, and if so, how its going to tie in to everything

Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros - Theories, Spoilers and Headcannons
This post will serve as my way of making order in my own mind, in a way. I finished Fourth Wing three days ago and I feel like my mind is exploding. I have read lots of theories and I have my own to add to the list, so... maybe if I put them in one place and start a discussion with you all, we might find some answers - considering November does not seem to come any soon.
Before I forget -
This post will be like an analogy of theories, spoilers, headcannons. If you did not finish the book yet, I suggest scrolling over it. See you when you join our little club of desperate broken hearts post-reading.
And now... let`s begin.
1. Returning to Basgiath
Who will return to Basgiath is the most important question I have. You can read the synopsis for Iron Flame here.
From the synopsis for the second book, we know that Violet will return to the war college and I can think of a few reasons for her to return: she wants to keep her promise to Liam (ouch, my aching heart) to keep an eye on his younger sister (Sloane?), but at the same time I have the feeling that Violet will act as a spy for the rebellion throughout Iron Flame.
And it is not a bad idea. I mean, Violet did not raise any suspicions in the first book. Sure, her connection with Xaden was frowned upon, but most of the people in command (her mother, the king, Dain`s father and some teachers) saw her as a victim in the situation.
“Their dragons are mated,” Mom offers, her smile chilling. “So she’s grown quite close to him out of necessity.” “That’s excellent.” King Tauri beams. “It’s good to have a Sorrengail on lookout for us. You’ll let us know if he decides to, oh, I don’t know.” He laughs. “Start another war?” (Chapter 31)
Bonus - Violet is a Sorrengail. There are few others with better access to information and our little Violence has a talent to stumble over secrets.
The problem is... who will return with her?
I have seen people saying Xaden might remain behind in Aretia, considering the attack was a plan to kill him and the others. Perhaps a plan orchestrated by Violet`s mom - and because Violet was added to Xaden`s squad afterwards and considering Dain`s objections, it seems that her presence was not part of the initial plan. But can Xaden remain behind? I will highlight the main reasons I don`t think so:
The most obvious reason - Tairn and Sgaeyl. They can not be separated for a long period of time and Xaden cant just come by (even in secret) every few days without being noticed. From the synopsis, we know that Violet will be directly watched by that new vice commandant - he will not turn a blind eye to a certain blue dragon (from a rare breed) coming and going as she pleases.
I read a fanfic where Violet choses to leave Tairn behind and return with Andarna, which might be a possibility in theory - let me explain it briefly: this theory suggests that Violet will pretend Tairn died in the attack along with his mate and the other riders and dragons and her bond with Andarna saved her from a fate similar to Liam`s. It is a plausible lie, but... have we met Tairn? He is the ultimate protective dad figure, he would rather die than let Violet on her own where he can not be. He had a saddle and a baby carrier made for Violet and Andarna, so I doubt he will be okay with it. And before someone comes to suggest he can hide somewhere nearby - he is freaking huge, guys.
Another reason I think Violet will not come alone is the threat Dain poses. Sure, she will not let him get near her again, but it might be beyond her control. What if he is ordered to interrogate her by someone higher in the food chain? That is why I think Imogen must be returning with her, but I will get into a deeper discussion about Imogen later (I absolutely adore her). Her signet might be the only way to avoid Dain`s prying hands.
Besides, Xaden will die of longing and worry if Violet leaves without him.
What I think will happen?
They will all return. Or at least Xaden and Imogen will return with her. Xaden will be appointed to a position somewhere far away or somewhere he can be closely watched by someone the command trusts - maybe with Mira?
It might be a good occasion to gain Mira`s trust and get her to join the rebellion (let`s be honest, she will join it at some point).
OR!
Only Imogen will return with Violet. Considering her signet lets her wipe recent memories, she can facilitate meetings with Xaden and Sgaeyl.
However, I am fairly certain that Xaden will return. There would be no reason for the new vice commander to pressure Violet to spill out our shadow boy`s secrets if they would think him dead.
2. Professor Carr
The second matter on the list... I don`t know if anyone else noticed, but there is a paragraph in the book, during Violet`s training sessions with him, when he says something like this:
“And the fact that you bonded Tairn makes you and Riorson the most coveted pair of riders this kingdom has seen in far too long. If I could offer a piece of advice?” His eyes narrow. “Please do.” At least he’s brutally honest, so I know where I stand with him. “Keep your loyalties clear. You and Riorson both have exceptional, lethal power that any rider would be envious of. But together?” His bushy brows furrow. “You would be a formidable enemy who command could simply not afford to let exist. Do you understand what I’m saying?” His voice softens.
Why am I interested in this passage? Because it sounds like a warning and not the make-sure-you-are-loyal-to-Navarre sort of warning. I fail to see any kind of loyalty or admiration for the command on Carr`s part - the opposite, really. I would go so far as to say he might be in on the rebellion.
Why does he train Violet privately? Why not on school grounds? I have the feeling he knows that her ability might be the only weapon against wyverns and venins.
Am I crazy?
3. Imogen
By far the most interesting theory I have come across. Here is a link to a Reddit theory about it, which I absolutely agree with. If the person who wrote it comes across this post - I fucking love you, mate.
To sum it all up...
Imogen has the power to wipe memories and there are some moments that seem suspicious.
How does Violet know about Imogen`s signet? I doubt the pink haired raider would just tell her during training. And how come Violent doesn`t go into detail about it? Perhaps because Imogen wiped out this memory.
The author of this theory also goes into detail about how it is possible for Imogen to wipe out memories, but not knowledge, about how it is probably a secret few are in on. They also give a plausible explanation as to why Imogen seems to be absent during the Montserrat trip and as to why Xaden has a lighter backpack when they leave. Absolutely brilliant.
But I can`t help but notice... did Xaden come to Montserrat only for that weapon transport, thus lying about Sgaeyl not resisting to be far from Tairn for more than 3 days? Because this changes... a hell of a lot of things.
We can all agree that Imogen will have a central role in the next books - you can probably tell by now that I am excited.
Seriously, take a look at that post.
4. Brennan Sorregail
The piece of resistance!
He is alive and part of the rebellion. Okay, we all get that. But... how? And how much of what has been happening is he in on?
Did he correspond with Xaden? Did he know about Violet and made Xaden protect her? Shadow boy here was clearly in on the secret of Brennan being alive. I want answers, Yarros!
Is Brennan in a leading position in the rebellion?
Where will he stand on Violet returning to Basgiath?
I feel like he will be the wild card of the series. It will be like a bomb when he starts spilling all the information he has, I can tell. And I love it already.
I feel like Violet`s dad knew about it all - about the real reason behind the rebellion, about the wyverns and venins and about his son faking his death. I want to know more about the Sorrengail men, please and thank you.
Anyhow, this is all for today. I will probably continue to collect theories and post them separately. Please feel free to comment your own thoughts - I am open to discussions as long as we keep it civil, guys!
And as a side note - does anyone know a group chat or something for Fourth Wing? I desperately need people to talk to about this amazing book. Or role-playing groups? Message me if you are on the same boat.
Kisses!

thougts about the creation stream [21.02.24] because i finally have them in order. Im going to try to keep this as factual as possible, but there may be some bits that I cant Not Be - also, this is going to be pretty damn long, i have many things to say and Im putting them all here, I'll try put all the opinions / heavy speculation at the end :>. Also sorry if it feels disjointed in places, I got real busy 2/3 of the way through and had to leave it for a while, so im not sure if i got all the points hit that i wanted to. (there should be a read more cause when i say long i mean Really Fucking Long but idk)
so first off, all the aliases that creation uses for other people (that I can find or reasonably assume).
Sunny (loved shell) rank 1
Chayanne (duck shell) rank 2
Tallulah (trauma shell) - rank 3
Empanada (pancake shell) - rank 4
Richarlyson - Rank 7
Tubbo - Primary Protector, Creator, Boss (unsure but will explain)
? - Centre Control
Philza - Guardian
Cellbit - Guardian (unsure)
Bagi - (slow) keeper
Niki - Keeper
mostly facts [though there are some interpretations and such]
tubbo is Really Really old. This is backed up by Many things, most on the stream, though a couple not. When creation is talking to chayanne in the ruins he says that tubbo created him a 'long long time ago'. The sheer amount of time is Also backed up by the fact that creation says he 'miss when this place was not ruins', did you see the state of those ruins? there were a few stacks of blocks left over on the tips of mountains that have virtually nothing distinct about them, the only descriptor used for all the blocks is also that they are ancient, so like-. The place has Lava surrounding it. In general just the state of the place kinda shows just how old it is. Though some fun things about qTubbo's age is that he Knows how old he is, or at least that he had been around for a long time. Going back to Fits birthday party when he says he's been dead for a long time. He is aware that he's been around a long time, though he doesnt add that to his age. In the message to Sunny he says that he's 20, not like, 70903405803. Just 20. cc!tubbo also confirmed on his alt stream later that qTubbo was infact 20 years old. He did also say that 'how long he's been around is another question' and then told people they were digging too far when they then asked how long qtubbo had been around for. He did however also say that 'his [qtubbo's] age stagnated when he was frozen' so qtubbo had to of been 19 when he got frozen [cause the 20th birthday was celebrated when tubbo was on the server].
Something that I have no clue about is exactly the connotations that are around it telling Chayanne that tubbo 'made me for you'. Creation also says something similar to Sunny at some other point in the stream. This is?? really confusing to me??? because it's heavily implied that Creation was created Before Tubbo was frozen. This could imply that Tubbo has re-programmed Creation at some point since being defrosted. Though the main running thing throughout Creations involvement has been that Tubbo Cannot Know About Creation At Any Cost. Originally it was Creation would die if Tubbo [Creator, specifically] knew. Then after Tubbo died it changed to Tubbo [Primary Protector, specifically] would die if he knew about Creation. Though then we get to something else that challenges this thought. During the recording shown at both the start and end of the stream Tubbo says that the message can only be unlocked by 2 people and that he never wants sunny to have to meet them. Obviously one of these people is Creation, as Creation mentioned on phils [and others] streams later the day that tubbo died that Creation had a message that could only be shown to sunny if Tubbo died, so this leaves 2 options for how this worked[that I can think of]. Either there was a moment in time, it had to of been after sunny was in tubbos care, in which he knew about Creation and Neither of them died. Or one of the people that could access the message passed it onto creation and tubbo was never aware of Creation.
Creation mentions 'The Old Order' as well, specifically that Creation misses the old order. The main question is about, what is the actual title of it? is it 'The Old Order', the 'Old Order' or the old 'Order'. If the title is just 'Order' and old is a descriptor then we could reasonably assume that it was a historical part of the current Order, though does Creation know about the current Order? Im unsure. If its either of the other ones then it's just a Title. Simply what the group is called. Not much is mentioned about the old order, other than that tubbo was at least associated with it, or they, somehow, stole Creation from him. It is also implied that they were at least where the ruins were, maybe all over the island, mainly from Creation saying that it misses the old order around when it mentions when the building wasnt ruins. Going off the block descriptions, this ruin is a ruin because of a 'past calamity'. Nothing else really mentioned about the calamity, just that that is why its ruins now.
The Operation is only mentioned a few times. It's never stated exactly what 'the operation' is. We know that the operation is something akin to a mission because when Tubbo first mentions it, in the 'if I died, last resort' recording, he says thats he never would of signed up for 'this scheme, this... operation if you will'. If he didn't say scheme before than it could of been, well, anything really, but the word scheme has some specific connotations that at the very least rules out some possibilities. After this first mention it is only referred to as 'the operation' [as far as I can find]. Creation does talk about it several times though. Something that it says is that it was a last effort to 'hold on' before Tubbo joined the operation. This implies that creation was made Before tubbo joined the operation. In the same last resort recording Tubbo does specifically say 'I would not have signed up for something like this'. He Signed Up to take part in whatever operation they are referring to. There is the implication that he signed up for this specifically because he didnt have Anything to care about before he signed up for it. He had nothing to live for, no... Purpose one may say?[side eye emoji]
okay so, the data. This is... something. In the description of the item it says that it was made by tubbo, the main thing is, When? We can glean a few things about this data from the stream [and a couple other places]. Going further into the description of the item. It says that it tracks Tubbo's vitals, statistics and locations. Going slightly out of this stream, this could be heavily why tubbo is Wrong. It doesn't say that it has his feelings or personality. Another thing to do with that is that tubbo did at Some Point send a chat that said that the data was incomplete/something along those lines[dont ask me when, I dont remeber, im pretty sure theres a screenie floating around in one of the tubbo tags tho]. Something that I find kind of weird is when Creation tells sunny that Creation cant promise that Tubbo will come back the same. The way its phrased could mean 2 things in my opinion. The first one being that Creation simply Does Not Know what is contained in the data. Creation does not know how much of Tubbo is in there, when it was made, if it's been damaged, if its been Tampered With. Or something that I think is almost as plausible, Creation phrases it that way because Creation is talking to a Child. One of Creations main purposes seems to be protecting the Eggs, both physically and emtionally [see: Creation hugging Sunny after Tubbo died] so maybe Creation was trying to break it to Sunny as gently as possible. Not straight up say 'Your dad is going to be Different' but just, something small to prepare them for it, so that Sunny isn't blind sided by the change. The data was also in Central Control's possession. When they have to go grab the data creation specifically says that 'Central Control has delivered it'. So Some How, CC got the data. This also raises some questions about the password on the chest the data was in. Why was it Sunny's adoption day? Did Tubbo make the box and CC can just teleport things into it at will but not change the password?
What exactly Is Creations purpose? We are told that it has something to do with protecting the eggs, but also not Entierly revolving around them. We are told that tubbo created it for chayanne and sunny, we can reasonably asume that its not just for them but All the eggs. But creation shuts down after guiding the construction of the revival machine, saying that its purpose is finished. But that has nothing to do with the eggs? This doesnt fit with the rest of the pieces we have on the board to me because it was called the First Video Log. Why call it the first if there was never going to be a second? Surely if Creations only purpose was to resurrect tubbo then it would of known that it was going to die. And also just protecting the eggs cant be its only purpose because then it wouldnt of said that it could shut down because its purpose wouldnt of been complete? Its purpose Never would of been complete until all the eggs were dead? This confuses the fuck outta me. Though something about its purpose does seem to be that it is to learn. It comes off very naieve about the world at large, though it trusts sunny when they tell it that the boat will keep the water away. It seems in awe of most things around it, or surprised or dismissive. saying 'woah' when looking at the station . Saying 'oh my god' when the creeper explodes. it says 'I did this for you [boss]' after saying that it was learning fast. Learning seems to have a lot to do with it's purpose. Tubbo says, in the Alt stream later that 'It's [creation] just a little guy... mainly copying, trying to fit in to not like, fail it's purpose' We could take this as learning to fit in being its purpose, Or the more obvious one being that its purpose relies heavily on being able to fit in. Is that so that the eggs and parents trust it to care for the eggs? or does it have something to do with the old order?
Now we get more into theory and heavy interpretation area, so buckle up {a lot of this next bit is half baked thoughts that I cant connect to anything else, so, yeah}
Something about Tubbo's character specifically, kind of related to his age? though more so to do with What The Ever Loving Fuck his character IS. So. QTubbo has been around for A While, that we know, we Also know that hes been dead for a long time as well. We know that hes not a robot, curtesy of Creation's 'not like a robot, no'. Though, where does that then leave him. He can still be restored, he can be shut down and he's been dead for a long time. And yes, specifically dead. Why? because when talking about Creation tubbo says that it was never alive in the first place so 'not dead, no', whenever qTubbo is talked about, the word 'Dead' is Always used. Never anything else, so he Was alive At Some Point. Though then theres the question of How The EverLoving Fuck Can He Die If He Is Already Dead???? idfk
Okay so, next thing. I fully think that the calamity has something to do with how tubbo got frozen. Whether the calamity has something to do with Why creation was created in the first place, if said calamity has something to do with the reason why creation was a last attempt to hold on. it could also be something to do with the reason why tubbo was frozen. If its less so a punishment and more so something along the lines of recuperation, then maybe he got hurt. Or it could be something to do with 'The Operation', Im just kind of spit balling at this point. Maybe the calamity wasnt natural. maybe the operation was some kind of last ditch effort to go against some All Powerful being or group.
SO explaining the thing about putting 'Boss' in Tubbos list of alias'. This is Very Heavily how IM interpretating this. When they are collecting the blocks in the ruins, there are a couple times that Creation goes in F5 and starts talking, staring directly into the 'camera'. During this he says 'Boss I am learning fast, see how well I'm doing. I did this for you.' and 'Boss one day I hope you will remember me'. This is heavily off of that second one. 'I hope you will remember me one day'. Sure, 'boss' could be near anyone, Infact there is a high chance that 'boss' is Central control. But just. hear me out [which i hope youre doing if youve read this far down]. Who else could Creation reasonably label 'boss'? Who do we Know does not remember creation? Tubbo Created creation, and has subsequently forgotten about creation, whether thats of his own volition, for his safety or some other reason, I dunno, but I think its got legs.

For the angst.When Yuu throw themselves in to finding a way home.No one knows how the comfort them.There all about tough love or don't know how.Kailm or Rook or Trey will possibly know how but the rest is up in air.The can all tell something is wrong (less eating, sleep deprived, shutting themselves out,) wither Yuu will keep pushing them selves to the limit or they give up.
Yuu has No Way Home
Platonic as this got dark and I do not want this to be interpreted as romanticization. Gn Yuu. Reader is called Yuu. Reader has no description. Yuu is very depressed and touches on some very dark mental issues. This became like 3k words dude
I recommend listening to the song Hansel-Sodikken before/while reading.
Being taken to another world always seemed like it would be adventurous and fun. Where you are the heroic MC that saves the day. There is a reason the isekai trope was popular anyways. A romanticized idea of found family and freedom. Adventure, starting fresh, learning new things.
At least, that's how it’s supposed to go. Most of those stories never considered the fact the heroes don't always get the recognition they deserve. The MC is a background character, and despite you being the protagonist, they fade away. Even when they save the day. Even when they starve so others can eat. Even when they fought blots with nothing but their fists to save the day. They are forgotten, with not so much as a thank you.
Even their friends, though kind, were unreliable. Even when you felt like you were losing it, they never caught on. Even when you were screaming for help or a thank you. Nothing.
The idea of being able to explore and adventure was taken away from you. No new friends. No new sights. No new start. Just trouble at every corner. To add insult to injury, the world you originally came from was awful. It was an apocalypse in the making. You weren't even sure if there would be anything to return to.
And what was sadder, is that it was better than here. You weren't from this world, and this world keeps trying to suffocate you. Food was a luxury, despite everything you do. You had nothing to call your own. You work just to earn the right to work harder until you give out. You had no ties here. It was crushingly lonely. The sadness never ends.
At least at home, you can actually relate to those around you. Even that was taken away from you. It was a fateful day that Crowley came knocking on the door, making fall over on its rusted hinges. I have some most important news! You remembered him saying. He sounded so happy, so proud of himself. Then the news hit you.
Hold it together. Don't fall apart. You are only allowed to be useful. The second you stop being useful, you will be replaced and left to starve. This cant be true. You ended up in this world, surely there should be a way out? A door goes both ways. Liar, you thought. He's a filthy fucking liar. He didn’t even try, you can't trust him when you’re here doing all his work.
This isn’t fair. You did everything you were supposed to. Where's the reward? And like that, you fell apart. You were going to die here. Alone. With no record of you existing. With no one to remember you. Locked away for damn near weeks in a room without Grim, away from ghosts. You doubt anyone would notice anyway. With how much you were used anyways. No one bothered to stop your impulsive self-injury spree that was fighting, so no one would bother to check on you. No one cared about you. No one would mourn you. You have become useless,
Kalim 
It took a bit for Kalim to fully register your absence. The fun-loving teen was usually around other extroverted individuals, and most of his time went to the music club and socializing. Funnily enough, that's how he learned of your absence.
He didn’t mean to eavesdrop, he didn’t! Cater was just super loud. “I overheard Trey lecturing the freshies yesterday. Yeah so like, apparently Yuu has been missing for a few weeks and no one can find them. Yeah, I know! Crazy right? Not even Grim knows. Apparently, before they disappeared Trey said that seemed really down and no one checked on them…”
Eh? The nice Prefect is gone? The Prefect that helped him and Jamil? That Yuu? Well, that's not good. Sure they weren’t too close, but Yuu has always been kind to them. Hell, Yuu’s been good to everyone, even the ones to try to kill them. Kalim never got to properly thank them, so maybe when he finds them, they can throw a feast to celebrate!
After informing Jamil that he was going to Ramshackle, he took his carpet and flew. The decrepit dorm felt more… dark than usual. Perhaps that was just because of the broken door that hung open. “Yuu! … Yuu! Hey, are you there?” Kalim called out into the dorm, only being greeted by his echo as he stepped into the dorm, wood creaking as he walked.
Was no one home? Carpet shivered slightly, making Kalim pause to soothe it with a few pets and hushed words. “Hey, hey it's okay, this is our friend's home, remember?” Kalim’s smile lit up the room as he continues to explore. Upstairs he comes across a lot of locked rooms. “Yuu?” “Hoho! It looks like we have a guest…”
Kalim jumped at the sight of the ghost phasing through the walls. “Oh! it's just you guys!” Kalim laughed a bit, his apprehension dying down. “I'm looking for Yuu, have you seen them?” “Oooh, that poor kid…” A long, skinny ghost muttered, “They’ve locked themselves away in that room o’er there…” the ghost gestured to the end of the hallway. “They ain’t looking too good… I heard them cry themselves to sleep a few times…”
Kalim frowned at that. “They haven’t let us in there and were quite worried for our roommate yknow? We were originally gonna mess with you, but well… Good luck getting through to them…” The ghosts went to the sides of the room, allowing Kalim and his carpet through. Floorboards groan beneath his feet as he makes his way to the end. “Hello! Hellooo? Yuuu? Are you there?”
Kalim tapped on the door at the end of the hall, trying the knob a few times. “Hey! People are really worried about you! Yuu!” Kalim knocked a few more times, his cheery attitude dropping to worry. “We were gonna throw a feast for you.” Nothing. “Your friends missing you!” 
Kalim sighed, wondering how he would get through to you. Suddenly, Carpet started to flatten itself, pressing itself against the ground before inching under the crack of the door. “Aw right, Carpet! I knew it was a good idea to take you!” The doorknob wiggled for a moment, before being opened by the carpet, and floating up to let Kalim in.
He didn’t know what to expect. He never had to experience this. He was hoping to see you sleeping, maybe hunched over a desk. You were instead leaning both your hands against a wall, hunched over, and breathing heavily. The walls around you were filled to the brim with notes. Open books are scattered everywhere. He swore there were dents or scratches across the walls. 
Tears ran down their face as they kept murmuring under their breath. “Useless, useless. useless. useless, useless…” “… Yuu? What are you doing?” “It's all useless!” you screamed out, slamming your fist on the wall and letting out a strangled sob. Your vision blurred with tears. “I want… I want to go home! I miss my trash oceans! I miss the smog in the sky! I miss my friends!” 
Kalims eyes widened as he froze. Your tears make his eyes glaze over with tears of his own. “Yuu?” “I hate it here! I hate it so much! No one stays with me, no one cares about me! I hate everyone! But it's a pain. I don't want to be alone… I want friends! It's not fair…” Your body shook as you turned around.
Kalim’s breath caught in his throat. Your eyes were bloodshot, with bags piling under them, your arms bruised from how hard you've been squeezing them. You looked dehydrated, and your face was thin. “I can be your friend!” Kalim tried to interject. “I care!” Kalim held out his arms to invite you for a hug, ugly tears building up in his own eyes. What does he do? The last time he tried to comfort someone— Jamil— he made it worse.
You just stared through him, turning away to look back at your walls of scribbled notes. There's no way home. Kalim stuttered not knowing what to say, before he slowly walked up to you, reaching out to touch you. Carpet zoomed past Kalim, making him spin around and stumble for a moment before looking over. Carpet was wrapping you in a hug, squeezing you tightly into a cloth burrito.
You froze, then embraced the rug around you, sobbing into it. Kalim approached you, placing a hand on your shoulder, before helping you sit down as he watched over you. Your lip quivered as you leaned into Kalim, allowing him to hug you. Soon your sibs came to stop, and you became quiet again.
“So… Um… Your home! Can you tell me about it? I mean you seem to miss it…” Kalim soothed, making your shaky breaths stabilize. You smiled a bit before talking of home, Kalim enraptured in every word you said. “Oh! I know what if we throw a party with food and customs from your world! It'll makes you feel better, like a piece of your home here!”
You chuckled before nodding. “That… that sounds nice…” Kalim smiles at you. “Wanna go on a carpet ride? It always makes me feel better after a bad day, especially looking back up at the stars…” Kalim helps to pull you up, the carpet unraveling from you as it stands beside you, proudly. “Come on, I know a nice place around here!”
Stepping onto Carpet with Kalim, you are taken out of the window to the sky above. And for the first time in months, a genuine smile crept to your face.
Trey
Trey noticed your drop in mood immediately. As the eldest sibling and honorary dad of the dorm, he is used to peacekeeping and reading through the lines. Trey is one of the very few students that has looked out for you, honestly. He would always nag the braincell trio about how they occasionally treated you and has probably pulled Ace’s ear after hearing about what he said to you in your first encounter.
You’ve been pretty dull the entire week, he hoped it was just exhaustion from dealing with the most recent problem on campus. Trey planned on giving you a pastry when he sees you again, and hoped to check in on you. He’s aware of all the unfair expectations and work placed on you, surely it had to be dragging you down. 
One day passed. Then 2. Then 4. It’s been over a week and no one heard from you at all. Not even Grim. Ace and Deuce said you seemed fine and then just left. Trey was ready to give a lecture to his underclassmen on awareness among other things. He pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed. “I am going to go check on them myself, stay here. When you see them again I expect you all have something to say them?”
He swears he's going to put them on grocery runs. Packing up the pastry he made you, Trey made his way to Ramshackle. He just hoped you were okay. The walk made a gnawing sense of dread grow in Trey's mind, as the worst scenarios played through his head. You did seem down, I mean really down…
Quickening his pace, he made it to Ramshackle. A few knocks to the door and call of your name later, there was nothing. No response. “Yuu… Yuu!” Trey's knocks became a bit more frantic. The door was unlocked, and he made his way inside. “Yuu!” Trey placed the box he carried on the closest flat surface as he made his way up the stairs.
Has the Ramshackle dorm always been so long? He swore it looked smaller on the outside. Why were there so many rooms? One door stuck out to him the most. It was locked and looked to be blocked by furniture on the other side based on what he can see through the crack of the door. It felt ominous.
The floor creaked as he walked. “Yuu?” No response. “Yuu!” Trey attempted the doorknob. Surprisingly it was unlocked, but the door wouldn't budge in the slightest. “Yuu! Open the door!” “… Just go away, Trey.”
“Go away? We’re worried about you, you know?” “Just go away.” Trey sighed, then sucked in a breath. He could use some magic to break down the door, but it didn't seem urgent, furthermore, you may not want to talk to him if he brute-forced this.
“Yuu, please. What's wrong?” Deafening silence. “Do you want to talk about it?” Nothing. “I want to understand you.” Trey was pulling out everything he knew from being Vice-Housewarden. Problem solves, keep the peace. Trey sighed, pressing his forehead against the door.
He could hear you shuffling along with the papers being blown away by the draft in the dorm. Trey sat down next to the door. “You know, Ace is actually worried for you. Don’t worry I made sure to lecture him for the both of us.”
More silence passed. “Riddle was thinking of making you a guest for the next Unbirthday party.” “Even Leona seemed a bit surprised by your absence. He cares for you more than he’d admit.” Trey tapped his foot. “I'll stay here for as long as you need. Until you’re ready.”
A few more minutes passed before he heard the click of the door opening. He got up from where he sat, adjusting himself. “There you are. It's good to see you, Yuu. Let's go downstairs and talk, you'll feel better on a fuller stomach. Made your favorite."
Rook
Oh? Little Trickster, gone? Rook wasn’t actually too surprised. The hunter is quite perspective, after all. He knows of all the responsibilities on your shoulders, and how Crowley uses food as a leverage point for you. You were bound to break eventually. 
Rook may not show it but he is worried about the little trickster he had come to enjoy. You always were quite a charming trouble magnet. You were always so bold and happy, he never realized just how much quieter it would be without you. The freshmen’s chatter was dulled, and softmores and juniors no longer had someone to but into their business.
The silence was accompanied by stagnation. Boredom. Every day felt the same now, routine clockwork. There were no more fun surprises to be had. Surely you should be back by now, what happened? 
“Oui, Monsieur Hearts, Monsieur Spade.” “By the fucking seven you scared me!” Ace quipped, relaxing from his stiff pose, his cheeks puffed out in a huff. “What is it, Rook?” Deuce asked. “I noticed you have been without the Trickster for some time now.” “Oh… That…” Ace went quiet and sighed, both freshmen looking away awkwardly.
“Look the thing is…” “We don't know” Deuce cut off the ginger.
“Deuce!”
“We don’t! They just locked themselves away with no explanation!”
“Well, you can't just say that,, it looks bad!”
The two bickered for a bit before Rook cut. “Ah, so the Trickster has been locked away in their room, yes?” Like a storybook, Rook thought. “Then I shall go and see if I can save them.” The duo stared at Rook in disbelief. “You will?!” “Oui, Monsieur Candy Apple has also been down about their absence.” “Ah but, last time we all went, they didn't budge…” Ace hummed in agreement.
“Then, allow me to scout it out for you both. I will go alone so as to not overwhelm them.” The duo agreed, asking for Rook to tell them anything he finds and if you were okay. Rook is a talented tracker and hunter, if he can’t find out what was wrong, then no one could.
An easy sweep of Ramshackle and a few inquiries to a trio of ghosts later, Rook went upstairs to the farthest locked up room. A few wraps of his knuckles on the door were enough to get you to stir. “Trickster, are you in there?” You were, he knew you were, but for now, it’s best to try a gentle, yet direct approach. 
“Oh… hey Rook… Please leave me alone…” You croaked, going back to rip another page out of your notebook. “But Trickster, your freshmen friends are worried about you being locked away like this. Please, come out.” Rook's voice was gentle, soothing, it had to be. There was no response.
“Trickster,” Rooks tone took a serious turn. “I know you feel like no one sees your struggles, believe me, I do, however, I can attest to that. Everyone is worried, even if they don’t show it. The school has gone dim since you left. Everyone can feel it.” You started to tear up.
“And I also suspect you feel quite homesick, yes?” “Yeah, it’s a lot of things actually. All these stupid errands and just…” your voice cracked, “so much stuff.” Rook frowned at that, such a sad sound. “Then let's unpack it, together. Open the door, please?”
The lock clicked and the door opened to reveal you. You looked tired and malnourished, with dark circles and tear lines on your face. Ink was all over your hands and legs, and you twitched a bit with a blank stare. The room was a mess of paper and books. More tears ran down your face and you were ready to just curl up and die again, until you felt a comforting weight on your head.
"Here take this. There is no reason to be ashamed of crying.” You felt your head to recognize he put his hat on you. “Let it all out, I will be here when you are done.”

homophobia issue …
first of all,,, im bisexual!! so if anyone has a problem with that, please get off my blog. i will not be tolerating homophobia of any kind.
i really, really didn’t want to have to come out in this way, bc the situation is so bad right now. i really didnt expect enhablr to be facing this kind of a problem.
when i first heard about the issue, i was thoroughly shocked. like completely.
before anything, ill let you all read the definition of homophobia.
Tumblr media
“discrimination” “dislike against the community” this. disrespect falls in the category of homophobia as well.
now to address the issue at hand. i wasnt directly involved in this problem. some of you may even be wondering why im making a post about it.
but as a part of the lgbtq community, i think id like to speak what i feel about this.
the situation we heard about was that an enhablr writer, had written dni: lgbtq in their account, which literally anyone would be surprised or angry at, especially if you belong to the community.
OP’s friend, who had recently become my mutual, was defending OP’s actions, which made me think of unfollowing them and i wanted to unfriend them. but then i found out it involves religion.
religion is a very sensitive topic for everyone and could go wrong in multiple ways. i respect all religions and beliefs.
so i texted OP’s friend, asking about the situation at hand, in case it was a misunderstanding.
i am aware that the quran forbids acting on gay feelings. it teaches you to not accept the gay ‘Lot’. (i have done my reading on this topic so i rlly hope im not saying anything out of line. if i am, please forgive me.)
but as far as i know, and have heard from my other islamic friends, the quran also tells you to respect and love everyone, no matter what they are or identify as. respect and acceptance are two different things. islam doe not encourage lgbtq, but doesnt tell u to NOT respect people of every kind.
if what they say is correct, then being on tumblr and reading and writing fanfictions is very much considered as haram as well.
in the above conversation, i texted them wanting to hear their side of the story as well. OP’s friend constantly used the word ‘opinion’ along with ‘belief’.
now, opinion and beliefs are two different things. opinion is something that YOU FOLLOW on your own will. belief is something that your religion teaches you to follow, against your will or not. you can notice OP’s friend has used the word opinion quite a lot.
OP’s friend had received an ask and this was their response.
Tumblr media
‘everybody has their own opinion.’
again, the word opinion is used here, which conveys to us that they’re not wanting to interact with lgbtq community on their own accord.
i tried to explain that most of us get enough hate for being a part of the lgbtq community, and seeing dni:lgbtq, doesnt make it any better.
now, about OP.
when OP was answering asks, most of their answers were very mixed up,
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
in the third picture, you’ll see ive highlighted a sentence.
they say THEY DONT LIKE lgbtq. usage of first person is used. “i don’t like what they’re doing” which conveys their opinion on the community.
in the first picture, they claim that if tumblr was only lgbtq people, they’d never stay. how mean is that?
second slide, ‘escaping them’ escaping us????????? what does that even mean.
there was another pic, (that i cant add rn bc tumblr has an image limit), where they said “why do people have a problem w us saying dni lgbtq but no one has a problem if people say dni homophobic?”
… are they being for real.
i genuinely dont think they understand the situation properly. they keep saying the same thing, and mixing up opinions and beliefs.
the replies under OP’s pinned post were terrible. people said things like “im so sorry. what they’re doing is so fucking messed up.” we wouldn’t call out people for no reason just like that???
extra info: OP had written a suggestive niki fic before too.
people of the lgbtq community are humans too. it doesnt make us any different from everyone. please stop treating anyone differently, we are all of the same bone. spread positivity and happiness, not this negative energy.
please feel free to dm me if you’d like to rant abt anything! im here to listen anytime ❤️
please reblog this!
