The Ruling Princes and Princesses of Dorne

Leaders During the Unification with the Iron Throne

Aliandra Nymeros Martell - Nora Attal

Qyle Nymeros Martell - Marwan Kenzari

there’s two potential candidates for who the prince of sunspear was during daeron i’s war so I included both of them because it made the number even.

Qyle, Aliandra’s younger brother, is one of those candidates, because we don’t know if Aliandra ever had children

Qyle would have been a bit older by the submission of sunspear which is why I went with Marwain Kenzari

Marence Nymeros Martell - Rayane Allali

Elio and Linda give Maron and Myriah’s father the name “Marence” in the game Blood of Dragons.

It’s only semi canonical though and it should be noted that we don’t know how he’s related to Aliandra.

More on all that in my “who the hell is maron and myriah’s father” meta.

If Marence is Aliandra (or Qyle)’s son, he likely would have been a bit young when Daeron’s war starts so I went with a younger face for him

Maron Nymeros Martell - Tahar Rahim

Maelor Nymeros Martell - Fu'ad Aït Aattou

I specifically looked for a mixed model for this one, and Fu’ad is French and Moroccan.

Now, obviously Maelor is a Valyrian name, but it’s close to a Dornish one as well - Mallor.

I thought, given how much Maron is said to love Daenerys as well as the story Doran tells of Daenerys teaching her son how to rule, that Daenerys had a heavy hand in raising him and perhaps in naming him as well, something virtually no other lady has control over in the series

Hence, Maelor - it sounds like Baelor, it’s a less common Valyrian name, but it sounds Dornish enough as well. Kind of a meeting of both cultures, just like their son would be. 

Loreza Nymeros Martell - Leila Bekhti. 

This meta here lays out why Loreza is likely her name but to sum up:

Oberyn is clearly trying to reunite his family through the names of his children with Ellaria. Elia, Obella for himself, Doreah for Doran, and Loreza probably for his mother.

Doran Nymeros Martell - Alexander Siddig

Can you believe they wasted the perfect casting choice on that nonsense?

Arianne Nymeros Martell - May Elghety

#valyrianscrolls #valyriansource #asoiafedit #a song of ice and fire #house martell #house nymeros martell #maron martell #doran martell #arianne martell #loreza martell #loreza nymeros martell #aliandra martell #marence martell #arianne nymeros martell #doran nymeros martell #aliandra nymeros martell #maron nymeros martell #rani graphics #i think nora and rayanne and tahar and fu'ad look fairly alike and i'm proud of myself for those #i actually also think the loreza/doran/arianne one is good too. this one was a lot easier for fancasts i think i just had a clearer idea #of what i wanted them all to look like. obviously bc these martells are pretty well fleshed out #even loreza tho she doesn't have a name.

[13leaguestories]

Hi! I was wondering if there was any way for Roe to hold off on romancing any of the ROs until the story nears its end [i.e. S4]? I guess, what I'm asking for is a slow burn?

p.s. I love your writing, by the way! Huge kudos to you for developing one of the best IFs I've come across thus far.

There is not, for reasons like that's so much extra writing on my part and S4 is when folks can start dying so there's really no budding romance to be had there. Imagine finally confessing then your LI dies the next episode, lmfao I snorted, oh lord. Anyway, yea no. All of it is done in S3. And I'm pretty sure if I made some of them any slower of the already slow burn, people would riot *looks at Rahim/Zillah/Syd/Chris* Wow, yea, most of them.

A Play of Vigorous Wisdom (PART THREE)

Interdarshan Championship Event x Reader (Genshin 3.6) Scaramouche/Wanderer x Reader

oh god, i'm so sorry this took like such a while to get out. i had so much going on and was extremely busy that I completely forgot i even had tumblr lol (and i will admit that procrastination played a part of this). I'm very sorry for keeping you guys waiting - genshin has already reached it's version 3.8 and the next will be fontaine while this whole event I'm writing about was back in version 3.6

ugh, i'm so dead...... but i did my best to finish this as possible!

PART ONE, PART TWO, PART THREE BONUS - Fighting For The Diadem (Cyno, Tighnari, Kaveh, Layla, Faruzan)

Hope you enjoy!

Today is still a rest day from the second round of the Interdarshan Championship. And, tomorrow will be the start of the third round of the competition. With the third round coming soon, all people around in the Akademiya Extravaganza were anticipating who could win this year.

You were one of the representatives of Vahumana along with your partner, Wanderer, but known as Hat Guy. Archons, the name of your boyfriend is just hilarious. You guys only participated in this event because of Nahida's request so both of you didn't have motivation or a motive to win this at all.

You didn't mind if you didn't win, you were extremely burnt out from participating other events and work from the Akademiya was already stressful enough.

But, as you were walking, you were kind of irritated that people around this time were talking about how you and Hat Guy weren't making an effort in participating the event.

"Vahumana literally has zero points…"

"What are they? Lazy?"

"Poor them. They are last place by this point."

If you weren't doing this because of Nahida's request and if you weren't tired right now, you would actually be ticked off, storm to them, and give them a piece of your mind. But you realize what they say is close enough as everyone already knows we aren't doing anything.

You just ignored what they were saying as you entered into the House of Daena.

The beautiful library stood out to the Akademiya as usual. The atmosphere of stepping into this wide-open place was enchanting, as everything felt peaceful and calming. Even though you've been heard more than once, it still became a comforting zone for you.

"Hey, (Name)!" A/N: I decided to change (y/n) into (name) because i realized typing out y/n is a hassle 💃(I'm doing this for all of my works now)

You turned to see your Vahumana friends calling out to you as they sat at a table filled with documents and books lying around them.

You have made friends with them ever since you enrolled in this darshan. They were just as chaotic as you and had similar interests to you. You guys always chat with one another at the House Of Daena and even during classes. Your friends love to share gossip with you because they all like to keep up with news about the Akademiya, either for curiosity or just drama. (If it wasn't for them, you wouldn't have known that your boyfriend was Hat Guy.)

You walked up to them. "Hey, guys."

"(Name)!" One of your friends, Arman, smiled at you. "I'm glad to see you again."

Your other friend Rahim was just doing some work, he did wave at you, but he seemed too busy.

Cyra, another friend of yours, smiled. "So, how's our little Vahumana representative going on?"

"Oh, I'm fine. Although, we are in last place." You answered.

Your friends didn't react or are mad at you at all. They all assumed you only became a participant because you were chosen by the majority recommendation. They knew how tiring it has been for you these past few days in the Akademiya. In reality, that was your cover-up which Nahida did for you.

Cyra hummed before widening. "Oh, yeah, Hat Guy was your partner, right? You finally got to meet him!"

You smiled as you nodded. "Yeah, I did."

Your relationship with Wanderer is private so nobody really knew you two were a thing, except for Nahida, The Traveler, and Paimon.

Rahim chimed in. "Yeah, Hat Guy is kind of cute…"

"Mhm. I will say he is beautiful." You chuckled.

"Right!? I immediately died the moment I saw him!" Cyra beamed. "Whoever ends up with him is so lucky…"

"Why do you guys like him?" Arman raised an eyebrow. "That guy always seems so grumpy like a little brat."

"He's hot!"

You giggled at the way they talk about your boyfriend. You don't blame them, honestly because it's true.

The next few moments between the four of you were just conversing about how everyone was doing recently, like how your friends were all complaining about how their lessons and research were getting more complicated by the day. You tell them a bit of your experience with the previous rounds of the championship.

Until Rahim said something interesting. "Hey, guys, I want to tell you something I found weird…"

"Hmm, what is it?" You turned to him.

Rahim muttered. "I heard that someone is planning to kidnap Sachin…"

Your eyes widened in confusion and shock. Arman had the same reaction. But Cyra just looked puzzled.

"Huh? Who's Sachin?" Cyra asked.

Arman rolled his eyes at her. "He's the one sponsoring the Interdarshan Championship. He's also the researcher who found the Diadem Of Knowledge."

"Oh, that guy…" Cyra mumbled.

You ignored her as you asked. "Where did you hear that from?"

"The night when the second round of the championship has finished, I heard Aarav, one of the Matras talking about how someone is planning to kidnap Sachin," Rahim said. "I saw him talking with the Traveler."

"The Traveler? You mean the infamous traveler all over Teyvat with their companion Paimon?" Arman asked.

You furrowed your eyebrows, taking into this new information you had just learned. You weren't that surprised if the Traveler themselves already knew something about the championship and Sachin, but it still did catch you off guard by how fast they knew more.

"Rahim, did you hear anything else in their conversations?"

He answered. "Well, I've heard that the people who are planning to kidnap Sachin were just a bunch of Eremites and the matra will take action into this immediately. Besides that, all they really talked about was what kind of a person Sachin is and how the Aarav gave the idea of the traveler to also investigate. That's all."

You hummed. "I see."

"(Name), I'd say you shouldn't worry and get yourself involve to this mess. Besides, if the Traveler is taking care of it, then I'm sure it will be handled any time soon." Cyra smiled.

"Yeah, you're right." You smiled back at her. "I won't."

I will.

...

You had just finished explaining to your boyfriend what you heard, but it seemed to make him be in deep thought for a while.

"Huh, I kind of figured that was the case..." Wanderer muttered. "I remember overhearing two girls talking about suspicious tourists at the cafe."

"So, these suspicious tourists are supposedly the ones planning to kidnap or kill Sachin..." You said.

"That seems to be the case, yes." He sighed. "Another pain to deal with."

You said. "Hmm, I say we should stop them before the third round tomorrow. Who knows if they will be striking or disrupting the Extravaganza..."

"I suppose." Then you see him smirk. "Besides, just beating up a bunch of scums would be extremely fun and bring me energy up for the third round."

"I say you save your remaining energy for tomorrow, Hat Guy."

"Seriously? I thought that you would forget about that name."

"Well, I did a bit but I think it suits you pretty well."

"Please no."

"Hat guy? More like Hot G-"

"Finish that sentence and I throw you out to the window again."

"OKAY! OKAY!"

...

"So, shall we go ahead and do it now?" You asked him.

He shook his head. "No, because if we do it now, they will still have more time to sabotage and execute their plan. It's better if we just do it tomorrow. Besides, I'm too tired for this shit."

"But the third round literally starts at 11:00 AM?" You exclaimed in disbelief in which your boyfriend just rolled his eyes

"Then, we'll just have to do it before that. It's not my fault your sleeping schedule is messed up."

"You sombrero bitch-"

...

...

The next morning - 11:05 AM

Every contestant is now at Mawtiwya Forest near the venue. Alhaitham and Nilou talked to each other or set things up while the contestants were wandering around the area or talking to each other until the grand sage's voice gained everyone's attention.

"Everyone, we are about to begin the third round." Alhaitham walked up front with Nilou beside him. "I will now explain this championship's third and final round."

"The diadem of knowledge is placed somewhere in Mawtiyama Forest. Your goal is to reach the diadem, bring it back, and place it on the stand. Because of our scoring system, the first person to do this will get four points and will likely be the winner of this year's championship."

"And I will say in advance that you are allowed to use your vision or any other strategy you wish to pull off," Nilou said. "It doesn't matter what you do, as long as you have the diadem."

You gasped as you thought. 'Combat? Meh, it's better than finding butterflies or Ley Lines. Although, I'm still tired from fighting them... I didn't get enough sleep!'

...

AN HOUR AGO

...

You and Wanderer were now outside of Sumeru City, inspecting the area around in sight of the kidnappers or any group that is treasure hoarders.

You were pretty drowsy as you had just woken up. "Ugh..."

"Quit whining and keep looking." Wanderer sighed. "I told you. You should've slept early."

"It wasn't my fault!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah."

You both continue to walk, you were slumping a bit, clearly tired until Wanderer put an arm upfront to stop you. You were about to question him until you felt him pull you behind a tree.

You look past his shoulders to see treasure hoarders. They were talking very loud and in the midst of it, about Sachin. There also seem to be someone else that had a completely different attire than them. But from the looks of it, they were clearly working together.

"It's clearly them," Wanderer uttered.

"Yeah, no shit." You said

As if anybody would say anything else, another voice spoke up quietly behind you two. "Well, well, I didn't expect to see you two hear."

Your eyes widen, quickly turn around to find someone you didn't expect.

"Alhaitham!?" You said surprised as Wanderer looked at him, unbothered.

The latter crossed his arms. "I can tell we are both here for the same reason, for the group who are planning to kidnap Sachin. Why else would you both be out here?"

"So what? Are you going to snitch on us or punish us for trying to get to the bottom of this?" Wanderer inquired.

"No, actually. In fact, the two of you being here would make this a lot easier." Alhaitham smirk. "I want to question them, but they would obviously put up a fight. So, if you can defeat them, I can question them smoothly. I know you both were here to fight them anyways so that they won't disturb the third round, am I right?"

"...Yes." You sighed. "Fine."

"Seriously?" Wanderer deadpanned.

"Well, we're going to beat their asses either way."

The eremites' conversations are cut short when they see you and Wanderer walking up to them.

One of them stopped you. "You looking for trouble?"

You didn't respond as you threw your polearm near the treasure hoarder. They barely dodged it as Wanderer flew up with his vision and started to throw his anemo wind blades.

All of them screamed and protest but as you start using your anemo vision, both of you showed no mercy and didn't say anything to them as you continue to beat them all.

...

You sighed, remembering that moment. For some reason, you thought you see Alhaitham flash you a smirk. You shook your head as you try to focus because the third round is going to start, and you will be using a lot of energy today.

"You look already worn out and the round hasn't even started." Wanderer eyed you. "Archons, you don't listen to me when I tell you to sleep."

"I do what I want." You say, looking away, yawning a bit.

"Do you at least know what to do..?" He asked making you nod.

"Of course! We just have to get the diadem in place first!"

"Hey, if you can't do that much if you're that tired, don't force yourself, alright?" He whispers to you softly.

You look at him, knowing he's somewhat concerned. You reassuringly smiled at him. "It's okay, I'll be fine. I won't."

He nods, as now you both turn to the hosts.

"Alright, if all of these rules are clear..." Alhiatham said. "The round starts..... now."

Immediately, everyone took running off to Mawtiwya forest.

Third round begins.

...

You and Wanderer were faster than the others with the other contestants trying to catch up. Probably because both of your anemo abilities were more overpowered than anyone since he could fly and you have faster speed from your skills. It was quite surprising because you still felt tired.

"Go to the west, I'll head east," Wanderer commanded out for you as he flew away to the right. You rolled your eyes at his harsh tone but went ahead to the left side of the forest. As you ran to the direction, you see behind your shoulder Faruzan and Layla running to the same direction you are heading.

"Don't get ahead of yourself, junior. But I still wish you two the best of luck. And don't take what I do to heart after this round, I will try and do the same with you too~" Faruzan winked at you as she continue run up ahead and went into a different part of the forest.

After she went away, you turn to Layla next to you as you said. "May the best win, Layla."

"Oh, you too! Good luck!" Layla nervously said but you can hear how genuine she is with her encouragement to you.

You went ahead to different parts of the forest, still in no sight of the diadem. You also ran into the other contestants during the middle of it. It was a pain for you. It was just like exploring the areas when you first came to Sumeru. Although it was fun for you, it can be a bit irritating to not find anything you're looking for. You remember the pain of finding at least chests all by yourself in giant forests in all of the other nations you visited.

While doing so, you even saw Wanderer a few times. He was legit flying around like he was a fucking fairy or an insect. You gave him a deadpanned look every time and, he literally sticks out his iconic tongue expression on you all the time. God, he's been always doing that when you're busy and you sometimes feel like he does them even when you're not here.

The other contestants, they didn't really say that much to you when you ran into them. You and they were all focused intently on finding the diadem fast.

You were out of luck as you searched everywhere until...

Out of the corner of your eyes, you see Layla running holding the diadem. It seems she found it first

Your eyes widen as you immediately dash after her.

...

As Layla had successfully retrieved the diadem swiftly and quietly, she knew it wouldn't last very long but still did her best to keep a low profile and try and head to the venue as quick as possible. And now she sees in the corner of her eyes in surprise as you run after her, trying to keep up her pace. She was starting to pant heavily from running faster than usual.

But her blood ran cold as she stopped to see Faruzan ahead, blocking her path. Layla had to act fast because she knew you were still following and catching up to her, and now she had to deflect whatever Faruzan was planning.

As soon as the girl sees the astrology girl, Faruzan releases one of her mechanical devices infused with her anemo vision that immediately darts straight in Layla's direction. The moment it was about to hurt Layla in any way, she quickly summoned a cyro shield around her. The shield protected her as the device hit the shield and immediately went through different directions instead.

Seeing the machine take off, Layla attempts to run again, but Faruzan decides to block her path by running up to her completely. The two of them are completely unaware of the two Vahumana representatives after them.

Layla and Faruzan both stopped running as they felt a sudden swift wind blowing against the both of them, and both don't see the diadem anymore in Layla's arms. The latter looked confused and surprised, while the other girl knew as she looked behind her to see the two people behind her.

Hat Guy to them or known as Wanderer, flew with the diadem now in his hands while you were on the ground with your polearm in one of your hands. Wanderer threw the diadem at you, and you catch it. You both share a quick high-five as Wanderer flies fast next to you as you run beside him. Hat Guy smirks and chuckles at Layla and Faruzan.

Triggered, Faruzan quickly summons another one of her devices that sends off quickly that seems to be following after you. You quickly sense a gust of wind after you, which you knew was the device.

You use your polearm from your hand, infusing your weapon with your anemo vision before taking a brief turn of the crazy and fast device up ahead. As you run, you swing your polearm at the device, hitting it perfectly and knocking it backward.

After you knocked it, Wanderer used his anemo skills and sent an anemo wind blade to the device, knocking it even more powerful. It now sends it backward to Layla and Faruzan strong. Both girls barely managed to dodge it in time by moving out of the way of the broken device on the ground. Layla looked shocked, while Faruzan was more mad as she watched two of you fly and run away with the diadem.

...

After a brief moment of dealing with Layla and Faruzan, you groaned in frustration as you see in the corner of your eyes Tighnari aiming his bow and arrows at the two of you. Once Tighnari meets your stare, he immediately shoots multiple arrows from his charged attack.

You crawled and rolled to the ground as you avoided them. Wanderer, instead just flew fast straight past the arrows, unbothered by his iconic dark laugh. In the midst of it, you had time to admire and gaped at your boyfriend. Like your mind for a brief moment was just admiring him and boasting to yourself how he's your man. What can you say? You do love him.

Snapping out of your thoughts, you used your anemo vision with your weapon once again and swung the polearm that was aimed toward Wanderer. The polearm rolls around in the air until it is caught by the owner.

Cyno grabs it and dashes forward in front of you and Wanderer. He immediately passes by you and tries to send an attack on your boyfriend. Wanderer flew, dodging it and sending his wind blades, initiating the personal fight between them.

As you were about to step into the fight, Wanderer gave you a stern glare. You knew him well enough what he was trying to say, he is telling you to just go with the diadem and break eye contact as he dodged Cyno's strike. You quickly nodded and ran away from their fight with the diadem in your hands, keeping it secured.

Tighnari was up high in one of the mushrooms in the forest again. As soon as he sees you running, he aims and throws his Vijnana Stormheart from above at you. You barely notice it, but you avoid it quickly by performing an anemo lunge forward from your elemental skill before resuming to dashing away. In the process, it also destroyed the stormheart.

You see that Tighnari is planning on hitting you with his charged attacks again. The moment the arrows have been released, you performed multiple slashes with your anemo lunge. You also swing your polearm and destroyed some of his arrows.

Meanwhile, Wanderer and Cyno continue to fight each other. Both swing attacks and send them to each other while dodging and retaliating. The Wanderer only continues to fight, so that it will distract the general mahamatra so that he doesn't go after you.

But that seemed to fail immediately because Cyno noticed your figure running away with something shiny with you. He realize that your partner didn't have the diadem in him, so that would mean...

The moment he realized, Cyno pushed Wanderer away and quickly sprinted after you. Wanderer's eyes widen in shock before he quickly flew after him.

...

After dealing with Tighnari, you yelped as you rolled to the floor, dodging the incoming electro strike coming after you. You briefly glanced and knew it was Cyno who did it. After his failed strike, he immediately started to attack you again. You were left with no choice but to fight against him.

Wanderer, still flying, squinted his eyes a bit to see the fight happening. Cyno was simply swinging his polearm around to attack you while you deflected it by performing your own polearm attacks and using your anemo vision infused. Both of your polearms clashing against each other, some attacks where you used your anemo vision to send off anemo attacks that swirl around Cyno and your charged attack to give him a hard time. General mahamatra deflected your attacks with his polearm and did more of his electro strikes.

As Wanderer was about to fly over, he noticed and turned around to see Kaveh flying towards him, clutching a device from Faruzan that seemed out of control. The moment that Kaveh flies past him with the device, he uses his anemo-charged attack on him that sends Kaveh blasting away.

Kaveh was sent off flying in the direction of you and Cyno's fight. Immediately, Cyno noticed and leaped out of the path when Kaveh grew near Wanderer's blast. But you barely had time to react when Kaveh hit his body against yours, making you yelp as you were thrown off above. It was such a powerful impact because you lost grip of the diadem that was also knocked into the air. Your body was about to fall to the ground when a gust of wind flew past, and a pair of arms held you tightly from above. Wanderer holds you in his arms while still flying.

The diadem that was knocked into the air was about to land when Kaveh used Mehrak to grab hold of the diadem in the air as he continued to slide onto the floor. He threw the diadem that was still secured to his toolbox. The diadem rolled into the sky before lunging forward in Kaveh's direction.

Kaveh was thrown off even more into the path further because of the diadem of knowledge's impact on his chest. Kaveh flew again and crashed onto the ground with the diadem of knowledge in his hands. It was a perfect moment for him since Kaveh crashed in front of the third round's venue.

...

You watch Kaveh from a distance walking to the stand tiredly, about to put the diadem onto the stand.

A dark chuckle blew against your ear, making it tickle you. You deadpanned as you turned to Wanderer. He was still flying and holding you in his arms since he caught you.

"...Didn't I tell you to not force yourself? And look at that. Sleeping beauty in my arms~" Wanderer smirks making you glare at him.

You held your glare for a while before laughing. "Well, thank you, my beautiful knight." You both smile for a bit before turning to the scene where Kaveh is talking to the ghost-like figure of Sachin.

Everyone seems distracted by the scene so nobody really paid attention to the Vahuman students wherein one was holding the other.

Wanderer sighed. "...Well, we lost. Do you want to stay and listen?"

You immediately shook your head. "Nah, let's go." Your boyfriend smirked as he flew away with you in his arms. No one noticed, except two certain traveling companions.

...

After the whole fiasco of Sachin's speech and Kaveh breaking the diadem of knowledge and refusing to take upon Sachin's research, Kaveh is declared the winner of this year's Interdarshan Championship.

The two of you were now telling Lesser Lord Kusanali about your findings and your discoveries on the past few days of how the Interdarshan Championship went.

"...I see," Nahida muttered before smiling brightly at you and him. "You both did well. I am proud of you."

"...Well, what shall we do now, Kusanali?" You asked her. "...Is there anything you want to know about Sachin's research?"

"...Actually, yes. I would want to get his research, but I don't plan to use it. Anyways, I would like you both to accompany me." Nahida smiled.

...

Even after the Interdarshan Championship is coming to an end, The Traveler and Paimon decide to head to Aaru Village in hopes to find where Sachin supposedly left his research. The two both arrived and conversed with Alhaitham a bit about his research and his points of view on this matter.

After a while, Alhaitham went off, leaving the Traveler and Paimon. Both were confused as they were waiting for the ones who supposedly would answer their questions, according to Alhaitham.

The two of them were looking through the research left here before hearing multiple footsteps.

"Traveler, Paimon, you're already here." Both turn around to hear Nahida's soft voice speak.

"Nahida! and (Name)!... oh, and Hat Guy..." Paimon muttered as you and Hat Guy were walking beside Nahida. You waved at them as the Traveler also waved back. "Wait, so did you ask them to take part in the Championship?"

"Yes, it was me. Are you surprised?" Nahida raises an eyebrow. But the traveler shook their head and responded. "Actually, not really..."

"Did you know that there was something wrong with the diadem from the start? And if so, why didn't you switch it out for another one?" Paimon asked.

"Because Sachin's research is not mistaken. He spent his entire life researching this topic, and these materials are a result of that." Nahida stated. "These are the crystallization of his wisdom. Yes, I was worried that the material might cause some disruption, but I didn't want to wipe away all his hard work searching for the truth. So instead, I had (Name) and Hat Guy here to help me keep an eye on things."

"Seriously? I think you can stop calling me that now." Wanderer turns down Nahida.

"Why not? I think I like it. It suits you." You grin at him as he sighed. Nahida nodded and smiles too before turning to the others.

"...Well, anyway — if Sachin's chosen successor hadn't been able to handle his research, or if it had brought pain to more people, he would have intervened at a suitable moment."

Hat Guy spoke up beside you. "And after all that, the person Sachin chose, turned his nose up at his life's work. Pretty hilarious."

"I was also hoping that this could be an opportunity for you to learn how to interact with people normally... I even thought it would help you better if (Name) was by your side, but it looks like that didn't work out." Nahida sighed.

"That wasn't necessary. I'm still paying you back for your help, and the last thing I need is more reasons to be indebted to you." He tells Nahida.

"Don't worry, Kusanali. Hat Guy and I sure had a great time together in the championship." You smile at her in which she smiled back.

Paimon interrupted. "Nahida, what did you mean by "Sachin's research is not mistaken"? Does that mean that you approve of his research?"

She hummed in response. "Hmmm. Put it this way instead. Truth, to me, is like a Shroomboar."

(sorry, i'm skipping this because i don't want her speech to take most of this part already... still a good speech though nahida <3) Lesser Lord Kusanali proceeds to tell about her analysis and comparison of how a shroom boar is seen and how she tells how the world is the same.

"Ultimately, my duty as the God of Wisdom is to guide every form of wisdom to a place where it can find its purpose." Nahida finishes.

"That was a long speech," Wanderer muttered.

You nodded "Indeed, but it's a great perspective and I agree with some of her points with it. So, Kusanali, what do you plan to do with the research? Do you plan to keep it or not use it?"

Nahida nodded. "Yes. Because Kaveh, as the successor of this research, does not wish to see these ideas disseminated, I will seal it up."

"But even though Sachin's research could be considered "negative" wisdom, it is still a building block of the truth. If someone wishes to follow in his footsteps in the future, I will not stop them."

Nahida turns to Wanderer. "I also look forward to the day that a member of the Vahumana Darshan can not only comprehend his theories but also find a way out from the despair as well." You smirk knowing who she's referring to.

"Hmph, Vahumana doesn't have that kind of talent..." He trailed off before realizing. "Wait, you're not intending to keep me in Vahumana long-term, are you? Hah, I don't remember signing up to become a scholar. Don't you think I'm useful enough to you as a prisoner?"

Paimon sighed as the Traveler facepalmed. "Oh boy, here we go again..."

"Why not? Don't you want to work in Vahumana with me?" You smile at him.

"As if. I see you already procrastinating a lot and you don't even get enough sleep. It was already a pain to work with you, idiot." He said as you stare at him, offended.

"...We. Do. Not. Talk. About. That. Hat. Guy." You smile darkly at him.

Nahida spoke up. "Well, to that, I would say that in Sumeru, even prisoners have the right to an education. I hope that your studies in Vahumana will help you deal with your own fate, and learn how best to settle old debts from your past."

"By the way, (Name)," You turn to her. "I am really happy about how hard you worked for Vahumana. I've been getting a bit of intel and seeing how much your progress has grown. Even though your habits are bad, your hard work has paid off in your thesis and research."

You blush slightly as you smile at her. "Oh, thank you, Kusanali... I really appreciate it..."

She giggled as she turn to Hat Guy. "I will also review your final thesis myself. I am expecting great things from you, Mr. Hat Guy."

You laughed alongside Nahida at him.

Wanderer rolled his eyes. "...Tsk."

...

...oh my gosh, why did it take so long to get this out... i sincerely apologize everybody... BUT IT'S FINISHED YAYYY

So I just went to see Madame Web and ...

Seriously, THAT was the toxic hellfire that's destined to sink Sony Films' ongoing attempts to ignite their live action Spider-Verse?

I mean, honstly, that wasn't really ANYTHING LIKE that bad, people. It is BY NO MEANS a great movie, it's definitely flawed and clunky, but it's also NOTHING LIKE the very worst of the Marvel movies I've seen in my time, especially in recent years ... it's DEFINITELY nowhere near as mbad as the GENUINELY abyssmal stinking stillborn mutation likes of Morbius or Elektra, nor is it EVEN quite as bad as those much more simplistic throwback Marvel movies from the pre-MCU days that have nonetheless still become beloved culty guilty pleasures for their kitchy campness, like Ghost Rider, Daredevil or the Thomas Jane Punisher movie.

In fact, once it gets going, it's ACTUALLY a pretty enjoyable movie, with quite a bit of charm. One of my strongest benchmarks for whether a movie is WORTHWHILE or not is if, by the time it counts, generally in the third act when the stakes are suitably raised, I have become sufficiently invested in the main characters for me to actually CARE about them making it through whatever terrors the big action climax has in store for them, and I DEFINITELY got that here. Dakota Johnson may not be the greatest actress out there, ESPECIALLY after the torturous (ahem) depths of the 30 Shades saga, but she's got a certain affable charm that won me over here, and Cassie Webb definitely has a scrappy, stubborn attitude that I really warmed to over the course of the story, while the trio of teenage girls she becomes reluctantly responsible for are likeable enough too that we can excuse their making some pretty dumb decisions at times - besides, they're TEENAGE GIRLS, why are we surprised that they don't always THINK before they act? And besides, getting to see my girl Araña brought to the screen PRETTY MUCH as I remember her from the comics was definitely worth my time.

Then there's Ezekiel Sims ... as screen villains go, the great Tahar Rahim has actually got something pretty strong to work with here, investing the character with impressive menace and a certain seductive charm despite having no real redeeming personality features at all. We could have done with at least A BIT more of an insight into his motivations, but he's a strong enough antagonist here all the same that he works gangbusters here, proving to be a genuinely palpable threat throughout the action.

And how could i POSSIBLY have been left cold by the way they handled the connective tissue to the larger Spider-verse so well? Adam Scott as a young Ben Parker? Genuinely CHEF'S KISS, I swear. Suddenly the way Peter's SO cut up about losing his uncle/father figure makes perfect sense ...

In the end the film definitely won me over by giving me plenty of what I LIKE in my storytelling. I love a strong found family dynamic, and capable, smart female lead protagonists who learn to stand on their own or together against potentially ovewhelming threats are TOTALLY my jam, man. So I can easily forgive all the hokum, shoddy superhero origin story character development gimmickry and varying levels of visual effects quality, as well as a criminally LOW LEVEL climactic showdown, because the film was MUCH stronger than I expected it to be where it counted FOR ME.

So was it a great movie worthy6 of comparison with the best that Marvel has to offer? NO. Not even close. But was it the massive steaming SHITSHOW most of the critics are making it out to be? DEFINITELY NOT.

Go check it out, give it a chance. Reckon you might be pleasantly surprised ...

This is late but here's the Islanders as ~2023 Eurovision Acts~

Kassam- Serbia

Obviously. This is just so obvious to me. The club beat, the slutty but very stylish costuming, the giant boss battle. It's giving Kassam DJ'ing at a rave.

Rocco - Moldova

Really this is why I'm making this post, the first time I watched this song I was like 'that looks like what Rocco's rain dance felt like in his mind'. The shawl, the flute, the revelry.

Chelsea - Czechia

It was between this and Norway, but I do think Czechia wins. The pink costumes, the feminist lyrics, the very feminine/girl power performance, how every time they showed the singer and her dancers off-stage they all looked like they were having so much fun and genuinely liked each other. I do think Chelsea would sing a more pop-y song, but visually the vibes are right.

Marisol - Austria

Super fun, goofy song for a fun and goofy gal. It's a little juvenile, weaker in the performance aspect, which kind of fit with how Marisol acts on camera. I fully believe Marisol would reference something like this if she had to because she wants people to think she's really profound. But really, the references she's making a little shallow.

Hope - Portugal

Stunning. Underrated. So energetic and fun. Beautiful costumes. Amazing vocals. This is exactly what Hope would do on Eurovision, something gorgeous.

Lottie - Sweden

Overrated. Very much is forcing the 'I'm a crunchy alternative cool girl" vibe. Takes the spotlight away from other characters/songs that absolutely deserve it more. Fan favorite. But also... I have to begrudgingly admit that she's good.

Rahim - Switzerland

I hate to say this because I love Rahim dearly, but he has a lot of character growth to do from what we see in the game. He tends to not consider the feelings of others and centers his own perspectives in conflicts, worries about other people not liking him, and definitely isn't as showy as the other islanders. Kind of like a swiss singer making a song about how the Ukraine war reminds him he doesn't want to go to war.

Shannon - Spain

This one makes a lot of sense to me too. Spain's staging was really intricate and dynamic but more understated than some of the acts (kind of like how Shannon is more subtle than the other islanders). It's a really beautiful and powerful performance.

No one's cool enough to be Croatia or Finland okay byeeeeee

#litg

[ariendiel]

Rahim made mistakes, but he's not a bad guy as those players claims to be. They just find any malicious comments about him because he's boring. I don't believe him being a bad guy. He doesn't deserve much garbage.

I wholeheartedly agree, anon. Rahim is so adorably dorky, sweet, and fun, and definitely isn't a bad guy. He's young, on a reality show, and he made a mistake. And, I mean, who am I to critique him as a Noah stan? Thankfully I don't see much dislike of Rahim on here, which makes me happy as I mostly love or at least can appreciate all the S2 characters 🤍

#rahim is one of my beloveds and his moments are so overlooked #litg s2 #love island the game #litg #litg rahim #litg ibrahim #ask

[kylecrane]

How did you cope with knowing that Rahim died in a childish bid just to get your attention? That he was so impressed with you and wanted you to notice him so much that he ended his life in a rail car, bitten and bleeding? Did you mourn him? Did you ever love him back? Or was he just another kid on his way to manhood, unnoticed until he became an object of tragedy?

Just to get my- ex-fucking-cuse me?

Rahim wanted to make a difference. To help. That kid got stuck in a hell hole where he had to watch his city die, where his sister and whatever friends he made at the Tower risked their lives day after day for months, and you reduce all that down to I show up and he pulls that shit because he wants my attention?

He wasn't some harebrained punk. Rahim was a traumatized kid who wanted to fight back, to prove himself, to matter. Be a hero, ya know? Save a life or two maybe. Show the world (and himself) that he can.

So, don't dump this on me.

His life ended too soon because Harran took it from him. But he knew what he was doing and what risks he was taking, even if he might've downplayed them in his head thanks to the arrogance of youth. But he knew. Just like the grown-ass adults who went with him did. I mean, what about, let's say, Omar? Everyone keeps forgetting about fucking Omar. Who's he, huh? Just a name on a list, a tiny note scribbled in the margins, no biggie?

God. I'm mad now. That whole thing was a shit show.

Excuse me. I'm going to go punch some fucking train carts now.

rahim: headcanons

(listen, i thought i had posted and queued this last year, like around june, and as it turns out it was stored in my google drive, so rahim stans, sorry about that!)

⛳ after having a discussion with @itsrealityboo we can agree the imagery of rahim with a petit dog is e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g. while the dog gives him kisses he can’t help but giggle while it happens. STOP.

⛳ i reckon he prefers apartments over houses. like @itsrealityboo said, "I think he wants luxury but doesn't want to deal with the additional upkeep that comes with a stand alone house." and it's very that.

⛳ a second bedroom converted into a closet, because you know he just has LOADS of clothes and barely repeats them.

⛳ his at-home-attire consists mostly of sweatshirts, which i love picturing in a blush pink.

⛳ during the pandemic he was getting anxious for not being able to hit the gym. however, he did go overboard to compensate for it with his online purchases.

⛳ the maintenance for his hair it’s either made by mc or himself. i really reckon he went through a lot of videos and tutorials to learn because he didn’t know how to do them before.

⛳ he was also having lots of fun learning dance tutorials on youtube, but doesn’t want anyone to know about it. REALLY HARD TO MISS THE GIANT BOY STEPPING UP AND DOWN IN THE OFFICE BUT SURE RAHIM.

⛳ zoom calls with noah and henrik. learning some recipes from bobby and talking nonsense with gary.

⛳ playing online FOR SURE, and everyone in the chat was from the villa. he loves playing team games and laugh while gary yells at bobby for the 35th time that he missed a chance to eliminate someone. “AI, CUPCAKE, PAY ATTENTION, FUCK!” all you can hear is noah sighing and rahim chuckling.

⛳ he was so bored at some point he was learning how to do magic, and when failing while showing it to his girl he would shake his head and say “it worked when i practiced in the mirror”.

⛳ his mom would make sure he’s always keeping the fridge full and he would respond with “it’s almost like you don’t know me mom.”

⛳ i reckon he talks to his mom at least once a week. not so much with his dad the more he learns about masculinity and all.

⛳ loves to surprise his girl with his cooking, and now that’s improving he likes showing off a bit.

⛳ expanding his music collection by A LOT.

⛳ expanding his reading as well, especially with manga.

⛳ and while at it he might check a few animes too.

⛳ drawing! drawing! drawing! this is an old headcanon but it’s so fitting for him. i think this is how he copes with anxiety sometimes.

⛳ so many brand deals after the show. the best way to make money during the pandemic since he couldn’t tour.

⛳ i would love to think he did a reaction video about three episodes: the one he brings shannon back, the one he chooses jo over shannon, and when he and mc get back together. i have a feeling he’s very apologetic about the whole ordeal and tries to explain himself a lot.

⛳ wine drinker. sue me, i like the thought of him drinking a glass of wine.

⛳ he might experiment a lot with his hair, and let it breathe from time to time. i honestly think he would look so good with an afro.

⛳ if he's bored you might catch him trying to solve the rubik's cube in a shorter time crunch.

thirsty headcanons under the cut:

🧡 rahim’s disposition to make her moan is unprecedented. he’s reading,, and watching a lot of videos on the matter. he felt really unequipped and i think spending his time learning is worthy of compensation.

🧡 loves being the reason she grabs the bedsheets and will do anything to make it happen.

🧡 slight mommy kink, not gonna lie.

🧡 loves praise.

🧡 has a hard time to talk about his own preferences because he’s afraid of being judged. once he feels comfortable, there’s no turning back.

🧡 background music always, it helps him focus.

🧡 holding her around his waist wherever they are.

🧡against a wall happens more frequently than you think.

🧡 P-A-C-K-I-N-G.

🧡 likes being guided. loves being controlled. cums when commanded.

🧡 his default flow is mostly romantic and easy going.

🧡 if he doesn’t receive a picture while on tour he’s definitely upset.

🧡 if she tells him she wants a video with audio featuring him in the tub, he’s tripping on his way to take his clothes off and fill that bitch up.

🧡 left and right there’s a growl but he’s not sure if he’s allowed to make noises. when she tells him it’s ok, just watch. or rather, listen. he sounds fucking good…

🧡 moans her name continuously while she’s in control. and out of it for that matter.

🧡 buries his face in her neck when on top.

🧡 LOVES being teased and can’t get rid of whatever is his hands fast enough when she lets him know what’s about to happen.

🧡 whimpers when close to cumming.

🧡 his torso and thighs tremble while it happens and he shuts his eyes while grunting and whimpering.

Turns out "the stranger" is Tweaker Bell, who is Magnus's mom, and the only love Rahim's heart has ever known.

After becoming relatively famous in showbiz, Tweaker bell returned to San myshuno to reconcile with Magnus. The boy has always been longing mother's love, so he eventually accepted her. They had kept their meetings hidden from Rahim because they were afraid of his reaction, until now.

"I never thought I'd see you again in this life." Said Rahim nonchalantly.

"Oh Rahim, I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have left you." Tweaker Bell regrettably said

"No, it's MAGNUS whom you shouldn't leave, you shouldn't have left your child."

Tweaker Bell started sobbing. "No, I shouldn't. I really regret it now. I'm sorry."

Seeing her tears, Rahim found he wasn't mad at her as much as he thought he should be. He knows he was the one to blame in their relationship. It's also his fault that Magnus ran away from home. If it's not Tweaker Bell who convinces him to come back home, then he might lose Magnus forever. This thought makes him shiver uncontrollably.

5, 7, 11, 24, and 29. I'll stop there even though I'm oh-so-tempted to keep going!

Dear Sweet Baby Zeus, Sarah! Why are you so mean to me? Did I piss on a maple leaf? Kick a bunny in front of you? Why do you enjoy my pain? I could do an entire post just on #5 alone 😆. Maaaaan, this is gonna be so freakin' long…

5. How many wips do you have? What fandoms/pairings are they for?

I have a lot. Several of them are fully written, but not edited. I'm only gonna count ones where I wrote at least a paragraph and not the ones that have extensive notes or complicated outlines but no actual story yet. So lemme see... That'd be... 17. JFC.

LITG S1 AU: Levi vs Jake x MC

LITG S3 Villa: Nicky x MC

LITG S2 Post Villa Divorce: Bobby x MC

LITG S3 Therapy AU: Seb x MC

LITG S2 College AU: Rahim (non romance)

LITG S6 Villa: Marshall x Lewie x Ozzy x MC

I might have to let go of some of these S2 ones. Ain't nobody reading S2 anymore. Sigh.

7. Post a snippet from a wip.

She laughed, the tension in her releasing. “Do you want to get my heart racing, Lewie?” His own soft chuckle faded and he stepped closer to her and lowered his voice. “I really do.” And just like that, the tension, the ache, returned two-fold. What was this man doing to her? He reached over and stroked her jaw. “Do you want me to get your blood pumping?” She found herself quivering beneath his touch. “Maybe.” “Just maybe?”  “I’m receptive to it.” He grinned and pulled her closer. “I’d prefer you to be keen. Maybe even enthused.” The bright blue of his eyes dazed her like a midday summer sky. “I can offer you amenable," she said. “Damned with faint interest." He picked her up and put her on the counter, letting his hands rest on her hips. God she loved when he did that. “I fear I need to give you something to make you a little more enthusiastic.” “You might have to,” she whispered. 

11. Do you write scenes in order, or do you jump around?

This is a good question! I don't usually think much about it. I rarely write dual POV for fanfic, because it's time consuming and I'm lazy. So when I know the premise, I generally know who's POV it'll be in. Like, in one of my wips, I decided that Levi is just discovering that he's bisexual and the story will follow him going from closeted to out so he can be with Lucas (who is already out and resents being shoved back in). Since Levi is the one who is going to grow and change, the story was always gonna be in his POV in my head.

With TSIME I DID plan to write Beach Hut Confessionals from Lili's point of view and scatter them throughout the story, but after the first one I realized that I liked it better when we only saw things through Bobby's lens.

29. What’s something about your writing that you’re proud of?

I'm proud of writing small moments that foreshadow the big emotional impacts to come. Most people never even notice them, so they're kind of just something for me. TSIME has a fuck ton of them.

**WARNING: THE SUN IN MY EYES SPOILERS AHEAD)** Bobby and Lili share a cup of tea and Lili turns the mug so her lips touch the same spot his do, foreshadowing the first kiss she'll instigate many chapters later (though she'll forever say that Bobby instigated it). Lili tells Bobby early on that "people leave." And there are numerous scenes of him watching her walk away from him. All of it foreshadowing what happens after CA. Bobby tells Lili she should fall madly in love with him and she says it's a bad idea and he quotes a line from Thirty Rock, telling her there are no bad ideas. Only good ideas that go horribly wrong. Foreshadowing their relationship in the villa as a whole.

My favorite is when Noah grabbed Lili, threw her over his shoulder and walked off with her, saying, "Sorry Bobby, I'm stealing your girl," foreshadowing the disaster recoupling and something that happened later after the show between Lili and Noah. FYI I have a one shot for that one as soon as I post the last chapter of TSIME. It's both distressing and sexy. Thanks for the interrogation, Sarah 😝 You jerk.
