#i'm so proud of my chaos goblin

[absensia-archived]

I've spoken briefly about this before and, again, it's usually something I leave in the little details of Charlotte's portrayal, but it's really been on my mind lately so I wanted to write out some of the prominent traits that continue to establish that, despite having gradually accumulated more experience, capital, and property over the years, Charlotte remains coded as working-class. It is crucial to both the narrative itself and her actual existence as a vessel for the primordial void, also known as Khaos. This means that she still has no ( legal ) credit cards and continues to thrift almost all her belongings, including her clothes, books, and furniture ( with the exception of shoes and appliances.) If you are someone who regularly meets up with Charlotte, you might begin to notice ( if you are perceptive ) that while she may be variably early, right on time, or show up in some unexpected state, she is rarely ever late and certainly never without a legitimate reason as to why. It is also not uncommon for Charlotte to juggle multiple jobs at the same time, and the only time she'll agree to a single job, at the exclusion of all other work is if she knows that that one job will be worth it. Related to this is the fact that Charlotte has a very hard time saying no to job offers; it's a habit ( read: stress response ) she is trying to unlearn, but it continues to be a struggle. Lastly, despite having successfully taken on leadership roles in the past, Charlotte expresses a strong dislike for being consigned to a "boss" role as she still much prefers to be hands on, in the action, at risk rather than sitting back and letting others do the work. She becomes restless if she finds herself "at the top" or in the position of too much obvious power; recall the adage about how it is lonely at the top, and how isolation is not something that the void's vessel can allow. She needs to be among people; she needs to be present to catalyze chaos. That being said, this doesn't mean that Charlotte simply allows herself to be treated or thrown away as a mere lackey or just another body, but that is still part of the struggle, isn't it?

#you'll also notice that char is very smart about the way she stores and maintains what belongings she DOES have #ie. her money her safe“houses” her work equipment #within the bounds of her control - char doesn't go out of her way to destroy or wreck her own stuff #if chaos happens then there's nothing she can do; and other people's stuff is fair game #but her own shit? she takes care of that shit best she can #it ties into the fact that she doesn't have a set or consistent sleep schedule #but for her work she will be up at the crack of dawn if needed; she will be out all night; she will be up and working days on end if needed #she also enjoys working in teams and if you've ever had to have char as a co-worker u'll know she's actually nice to work with #still untrustworthy still chaotic still annoying as fuck - but also nice #she prefers to work with equals rather than take any kind of control over others. control being the other side of the coin to chaos :') #she's also worked such a HUGE myriad of what society considers labour / “entry-level” / “unskilled” jobs... #...in order to learn from an inconspicuous position. #i could go on and on but like i said - i'll leave in the writing #i'm so proud of my chaos goblin #thinking about how at one point in her timeline she worked and played her way all the way to accidentally taking out a crime boss... #....then IMMEDIATELY did a 180 going “nope not for me” and vanished #too lonely at the top and that's no fun for this one :( #( smth smth the fact that she's just a vessel is too ingrained in her sense of self for her to actually stand out and be leader ) #( smth smth even pawn-turned-queens revert back to pawns at the end of the game ) #and as always - if you actually read through all this IM SO THANKFUL FOR U MWAH <3

🎆 Hey J!! Congrats on your 1.5 followers I'm so proud of you girl!! So for my request I was wondering if it could be a Peter Parker one where y/n is somehow transported into Spider-Man: Homecoming, Spider-Man: Far From Home, or Spider-Man No Way Home you pick and chaos ensues 💜

Multiverse : Peter Parker x Real-world!Reader

Descr: short fic in which y/n finds herself in her favorite movie and has to decide how to proceed.

Warnings: I’m not really great at these kind of AUs but other than that, I can’t think of any but let me know!

This sucks; I'm sorry, nothing was coming to me

Y/n bounced her right leg nervously as she looked around. She didn’t understand what was going on. One second she had been rewatching the latest Spider-Man movie, No Way Home from the comfort of her apartment. The next, she was standing in front of a glowing circle, identical to the ones that were portals in the movie she’d been watching. She hesitated briefly but nevertheless let her courage guide her into the multi-dimensional opening.

Y/n squinted as her eyes adjusted to her new surroundings. She quickly realized she’d somehow seemingly entered into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. How that was possible, she wasn’t certain. Had it not been for her literally pinching herself several times, she’d have thought she was simply dreaming. But she wasn’t. This was real.

Y/n slowly made her way across the bridge, stopping the moment she heard the fighting begin. She was actually in No Way Home.. or… in the universe that held the No Way Home events..? She wasn’t sure how to phrase it, it was all so bizarre. Either way, she knew from having seen the movie countless times already, that she ought to run and hide unless she wanted Dr. Octavius or Green Goblin to harm her.

Y/n let her feet guide her away from the immediate threat, only looking up when her legs came to a halt. She blinked rapidly as she found herself standing in front of Doctor Strange’s Sanctum. Of course she’d managed to make it here. Perhaps she should just go with the flow and try to help. After all, she knew how things would go, maybe she could prevent Tom Holland’s char Peter from getting hurt and May from dying.

That idea turned out too optimistic as Peter understandably was weary of y/n. It was one thing to bring people who knew him/Spider-Man from other universes. But a universe in which he was actually just a character and not real, that was another thing to digest. Nevertheless, Peter didn’t want to take any chances so he let her help him, Ned, and MJ.

It was a bit difficult at first to get Peter to trust her. As in his eyes, she seemed to be able to tell the future and was offering to stop the bad things before they happened. Luckily, having seen Far From Home, y/n understood why he was so weary of such a thing being too good to be true. So even when Peter trapped her in a sheet of webs as he demanded answers he could understand, she remained calm.

Once he had heard her out and understood that she meant no harm, Peter let y/n guide him on what to do and what not to do. There were some moments of chaos nonetheless as they were trying new things that y/n knew Peter hadn’t done in the movie before. But, she figured it was worth all the danger and chaos because she was helping her favorite superhero.

Only that too was much more intense than y/n had anticipated. Yet, she was simultaneously thrilled to be playing an active part in the movie she loved so much. Especially since they were now near the ending and May hadn’t died!

The only issue is y/n now had to return to her own universe. As much as she wanted to stay and make a place for herself in this one, she refused to risk ruining the MCU by accident. So, with a sigh, y/n closed her eyes as she said goodbye to this universe before stepping back into hers.

Getting to know you

I was tagged by @santacoppelia, @celestialcrowley, @scottishmushroom and @notagoodlad (see, I get around to these things eventually...)

1. were you named after anyone? My mum told me I was named after a girl she had a 'fascination' with at school. Take from that what you will...

2. when was the last time you cried? Yesterday. It's hard to accept that sometimes the things you love, really don't love you and are not good for you.

3. do you have kids? Yes, I'm a single parent to a 10 year old enby kiddo who makes me so proud with their bravery and kindness every day, and a 5 year old little boy who is like sunshine on a cloudy day - they both make the world a much better place.

4. what sports do you play/have you played? I actively and passionately avoid sports of all kinds, and am not sorry about it. I do go wild swimming in the ocean, but not sure if that counts as its mostly me floating on my back and looking up at the sky going "wow the world is pretty."

5. do you use sarcasm? A little, and only with good friends or family.

6. what's the first thing you notice about people? Whether they are open, friendly, good vibes. Can usually tell fairly quickly whether I will get on with them or not.

7. what's your eye color? Hazel - can look gold or green or honey brown depending on the light.

8. scary movies or happy endings? Happy endings. I've been living a scary movie for most of my life, so I always try to find the happy where I can!

9. any talents? Writing? Maybe? I can sing a little, draw a little. My best friend says my main talent is giving the best hugs in the world.

10. where were you born? London, England.

11. what are your hobbies? Writing, wild swimming, countryside walks, star gazing, reading, cooking, spending time with friends and family, making memories with my kiddos.

12. do you have any pets? A failed foster pup called Rosie, who is a tiny fluffy black bundle of enthusiasm and cuddles; and a rescue cat called Tibby who loves you on her own terms. They cuddle. It's cute.

13. how tall are you? I'm 5'3" - a shortie!

14. favorite subject in school? Art. Closely followed by English Lit.

15. dream job? I'm currently a primary school teacher (shock! horror!), but I'd love to make writing and being an author my full-time job. If the NWN application goes well, this could become a reality - but even if it doesn't, I'm not going to stop writing and trying to make my dreams happen. Having cancer taught me that there's never a good time or perfect time, you're never too young or too old for the things you want - just grab life, and shake all the magic out.

Blades 2 Inside Choices Blog: Blades of Light and Shadow 2

We’re so happy to be back in action with the gang we know and love! Where does Blades of Light and Shadow 2 pick up after the first book’s ending?

Emi: I will say that we don't pick up where you're expecting. 

Kathleen: Unless you were expecting to get hucked out the back of the plot truck and onto the action highway at 80mph. (Fury Road theme plays)

Lil: (is overtaken by the Two Towers theme)

Emi: But rest assured, our original four love interests are back and dealing with their own challenges. 

Lil: And they’re definitely going to need help with those challenges whether you’re romancing them or not. Though we support all variations of ‘mancers here. Mono-, multi-, and necro- . 

Emi: Also they get some new looks that can best be described as "sleeves are B.S."

Jay: Don’t forget “badass pirate coat important”.

What kind of new main characters will we meet in the sequel? Or perhaps, any new love interests?

Jay: There is a strange but familiar hooded figure…whose hotness level was of great discussion.

Lil: He’s very constructive with his feedback. And a monster from Book 1 returns, but not in a way you expect. 

Emi: I think we all know I'm obsessed with Valax. I mean, she's a badass purple lady who only has one sleeve. Obviously that makes her my wife.

Tom: EMI YOU HAVE TOO MANY WIVES!!!

Kathleen: Idk I'm still mad that hot scorpion lady didn't win the monster contest.

Lil: Sky whale supremacy how dare. 

Kathleen: Okay I am excited about the dwarves and goblins though. New dwarf friend is just A+ chaos babe and I love her.

Emi: Honestly though, my fave character is the one who's "head empty, no thoughts, falls over a lot."

Making this sequel has been a labor of love. Does the book team have any must-tell stories/bloopers during production?

Jay: There was an accidental floating dwarf? And too many battles with code. Writers, please don’t do it to me again. I cannot take it. The while loop will win.

Kathleen: During one of my editorial passes I had to give Emi a note like "Okay when we first meet the Big Bad maybe we should use that moment to establish that she's really imposing/scary instead of just going off about how hot she is."

Emi: I may have made too many Aerin memes that are now weekly traditions for our team.

Danielle: I was instructed to design a character with “Vision as a hotness bar” as a guide, I ignored them and used Jeff Bridges instead 😏. 

Jay: Danielle also came up with some incredible filenames, my favorite being “tentacle_monster_buff”.

Danielle: It’s accurate, is it not?

Are there any elements that you are particularly proud of?

Tom: The Shadow Realm was fun to make! Think the Upside Down, but more purple. And to make all the awesome new weapons and armor work with the outfits took 150 unique assets! You’re welcome.

Danielle: My first full book!

Lil: The lore guide for Blades was 60 single-spaced pages before we started adding things that came up during active production. I’m really pleased with how much actually ended up being discoverable in the book itself, so be sure to explore every nook and cranny of Morella and beyond! Because they are filled with beauty and chaos. 

Emi: I cannot tell you how many spreadsheets we made to keep track of things. I mean, the outline alone was 100 pages!

Jay: My code built 😭. And that my production planning got it to you a little earlier than y’all had anticipated hehe.

At the end of the first book, we seemed to have wiped out the forces of evil for at least a day or so. What kind of dangers will we face in the second edition?

Lil: Evil never sleeps y’all. It gets its coffee from Aerin. 

Kathleen: (Aerin, walking up to the counter): "I have a large non-fat birthday cake latte with caramel drizzle and four shots of espresso for (squints at label) ...Emile?"

Lil: In all seriousness, you’re really getting it from all sides in this book. There’s rival factions, shifting leadership, societal upheaval, and monsters. So. Many. Monsters. (Thank you for giving us the Shadestalker, by the way. Can’t wait for you to meet the beefy boy.) 

Kathleen: One cool scary thing about book 2 is that THIS TIME, IT'S PERSONAL (like instead of you and your buds racing against bad guys to collect the magic things, you've now got a villain single-mindedly hunting you down so she can steal your <REDACTED> for use in her evil plans).

Emi: Kathleen may have called me out for it but our Big Bad is hot! Both literally and figuratively!

How much do you love QA?

Lil: SO MUCH.

Emi: Pour one out for our poor QA folks who have had to test what is the most complex book we have ever done! You are the real heroes!

Jay: QA peeps are my saviors!! Their work alone cures my anxiety.

Kathleen: Gawd I would be lost without QA my grammar is a disaster

Erin: Everyone on the Blades team is so wonderful to work with. I also tested Book 1, and to be able to contribute to Book 2 means everything to me. It’s absolutely a labor of love.

We know that years of hard work and passion went into this book. What would the Blades team like the readers to take away from this sequel?

Emi: So Kathleen and I actually helped to brainstorm the entire Blades world back when it first came into being, so it felt like coming full circle to be back and expanding it in new and fun ways. I was already in love with all of these characters and they're even closer to my heart now. I can't wait for you all to see what we've come up with!

Jay: Y’all better like it! This book has taken years off my life. *lies down on floor* (But seriously, we’re as excited about Blades 2 as all of you and hope that it brings as much joy to you as it did for us to make. I think the best word to describe the team as we wait for September 1st is giddy.)

Danielle: I hope you like our art :).

Tom: If you don’t, please keep it to yourself, artists are fragile :’} 

Lil: I was one of the few people who was new at Choices when I began working on this book, and it was truly an honor to see this thing come together. These are the minds that brought you The Crown & the Flame, The Cursed Heart, Wake the Dead, and the first Blades. It was amazing to go from watching them work as a fan to taking this epic journey together. 

Kathleen: THE REAL VILLAIN WAS THE IMPERIALISM WE MADE ALONG THE WAY

Lastly, how much does the team love Aerin?

Kathleen: I DON'T love Aerin he KIDNAPPED my WIFE.

Danielle: Which one…

Emi: Aerin is my sweet baby boi with a little dose of evil. He should be protected at all costs but also really needs to go to therapy. I live for the angst of him and Raine though. It's so juicy.

Danielle: Aerin has caused me, personally, a lot of pain.

Lil: Really, one of the fun things about the book is you can decide how much pain Aerin causes you. Unlike us.

Jay: He haunts my dreams and my Wednesdays.

Danielle: Livid and sad and livid and sad

Thank you team for taking us through the fantastical production journey of the Blades of Light and Shadow 2! We can’t wait to dive in and meet up with the gang. Launch day is so close!! 

Thank you, readers, for supporting us and our book teams!

Elizaveeeeeth

My girl Veeeeeth!!!

First impression: The first time I watched an animatic with Veth in it I was smitten. Her voice? Her chaotic vibes? Instant favourite.

Impression now: Veth is my number one favourite CR character of all time. I've talked about her a lot on my blog lol but I just absolutely adore the way Sam plays her. She's hilarious. She has so much depth. She's a mom, she's a best friend, she's barely twenty years old. She's married, she's horny, she doesn't know how to choose between the life of an adventurer and the life of a housewife. She's in love with her best friend. She's in love with her husband. She's a little goblin girl. She's a halfling woman. She makes explosives. She's a proud member of the Chaos Crew. She's an alcoholic. She's scared. She would die to protect the people she loves. She loves children. She killed a baby manticore to get its mother's attention. She invented the Fluffernutter. She's so smart. She thinks she's ugly and not brave. She's learning how to love herself. She's my everything.

Favorite moment: Truly how can I choose just one... An early moment that has always stuck with me is when they're in Zadash and Nott turns herself in a halfling to just go to a cafe alone and have lunch and "be a normal girl". With the context of her backstory... ouch. Also Edith where is my son. And Your people did this to my people. All of the Nott-backstory-reveal stuff hits sooooo hard.

Idea for a story: I have sooo many but I'd love to write something about Veth watching Luc grow up over the years... Also something about Veth and Yeza's relationship, maybe the arc from their early romance to their relationship post-campaign in little snapshots.

Unpopular opinion: This isn't technically an opinion, but I feel like a lot of people forget how young Veth is? Like yes she has a husband and a child but she's like... mid-twenties? One of the youngest members of the Nein, actually. When people call her the team mom I'm like... she's a baby!!

Favorite relationship: I mean, Caleb and Veth. Of course. Their dynamic is everything. Truly one of the most interesting relationships I've ever seen played out in a ttrpg. I'm obsessed. (Second place goes to Veth and Jester, absolutely love their friendship.)

Favorite headcanon: I guess this is technically a Yeza headcanon, but I like to think that Yeza collected like... rocks and chemicals and science-y things as a kid, and he thought it was really cool that Veth had all of her little collections, too, and that's something they bonded over when they were young. :) Being the weird kids together.

(Feel free to send me more characters for this ask meme!)

#i assume elizaveth means veth lolol #anyways can you tell i love her sooooo much #critical role #cr2 #veth brenatto #nott the brave #kk talks about stuff #kk watches cr2 #ask meme

Meet the Mods: Bib

Name: Bib

Pronouns: they/she

Main blog: @bibliophilea

ao3: bibliophilea

Fave DP Character: Jazz. Or Clockwork. I love them both, and we don't see them interact in fanon often enough.

Order or Chaos: I love me the math behind chaos, but I love me the rest of math, too! So Imma have to go with Order! (I get my fill of chaos from the furry goblins I take care of at home!)

What is your Phave Prompt this year? I am very curious what people will do for Way of Life/Cause of Death!

When did you join the Phandom? I joined January of 2014! Well into the heyday of angst! Which was perfect, because I really wanted some horror stories, and the angst hit those cravings and more!

What fanwork are you most proud of? Well, this is a tough decision! I've done writing, and I've done art, and I've done music and podfics! It's hard to pick just one! So, I guess I will try to pick one from each category, instead!

Writing: My Phic Phight 2019 oneshot, Clueless, is still one of my favorite pieces! I still really like how I wrote Spectra!

Art: For this, I'd have to go with my Big Bang piece! I really enjoyed doing the line art for it, and it was a very big step in doing digital coloring for me, as well! I also really love the phic, written by TWD, that I made this for! Mind the CWs, tho: gore, maggots, blood, injury, mutilated corpses, neck injury, head injury, angst

Music: I'm really proud of my Mini Bang music! I learned about panning from Lexx, and Lexx mastered the music, so it turned out really, really well! I particularly like how "Wanderlust" turned out!

Podfic: I haven't podficced in a while... but I gotta say, the one I'm most proud of (and also the one I want to redo the most) is my podfic of "It was real, and I repent" by anthrop! I like how I voiced Clockwork, and I like my Observants voice, and I like how I did the "Time Out"s! This was an early podfic, though, on my iPhone mic a few upgrades ago, in a room that didn't have much sound proofing. I'd love to see what I can do now that I have a proper mic, a better recording environment, and a better grasp of narration!

Do you have a phavorite DP phic trope? Ummmm... Angst? Hurt/Comfort? The horror of being half dead yet half alive? The first two are why I came; that last one is one of the reasons why I stay!

What are you going as for Halloween? Either Box Ghost, or my low key Napstablook look! Depends on my mood, really!

Why did you pick your mod role? Well, I was going to call myself "Ghost Zone Janitor Bib", but that's a long tag to type all the time, and I'm likely to forget the "Zone" bit. So, I am mod bib!

But don't mind me, I'm just your local Ghost Zone Janitor Bib, sweeping up the messes and spills we encounter as we go! When I'm not desperately catching up with school, you can find me reblooping posts, correcting tags, and testing out the different pages to make sure they link to their correct spaces! Just keeping things in order in the background so the mods up front can run the show as chaotically as they want!

7, 21, 26, 36, 41, 45, 53, 69, 74, 79!

7. Post a snippet from a wip.

Okay, this technically isn't a wip in that I haven't actually worked on it at all, but it's living in my head rent free and I think you'll find it funny:

"The goblin-looking thing with fWhip's face looked up at Scott in askance, cocking his head to the side as if trying to play a spot-the-difference game. "Aren't you supposed to have heterochromia?"

The elf blinks, then answers, "I don't think I have hetero-anything.""

Hope you think this is as funny as I do, I was rolling on the floor laughing when I realised I could use that joke.

21. Do you prefer writing chaptered fics or one-shots?

I don't think I've written any one-shots--no wait, that's a lie. I haven't written any one-shots that aren't part of a multichaptered fic. So, yeah I much prefer chaptered fics. I love reading both, though!

26. What’s your least favorite part of the writing process?

The self-discipline involved. I am terrible about holding myself to schedules and deadlines, so making sure I'm meeting a word-count or finish a chapter on time is hard.

36. What fic are you proudest of?

Hmm. I'm really proud of my Star Wars fic, To Live Without a Lifeline (part of a larger series, but I'm not as proud of the first or third parts of that series) because I was writing it in the middle of the most difficult part of my life. But my favourite, the one I want people to read most, is my Empires s1 au that I'm working on currently (I Believe That There Is Courage (But It's Burning Like Ash in the Wind) is the full title of the series, which yes, is a mouthful).

41. Who’s your favorite character you’ve written?

Charger. Hands down, Charger.

So, context. Charger is a Star Wars clone trooper OC that basically saw what I was doing to the main character from my Young Enough to Try series, decided he wasn't happy with it, and became that character's emotional support friend for the rest of the series. I love him, he is sarcastic and kind and willing to let Ezra beat the crap out of him if it means he'll admit he's hurting. He's such a self-sacrificing little chaos-maker and I love him.

45. What genre/trope do you tend to write the most?

Um... so, actually probably fake character death. I have no less than three stories, two published, one sitting in my WIP folder, where at least one of the characters "dies" at least once. I love it for the angst and hurt/comfort potential. Time travel is also a good one.

53. What is the most-used tag on your ao3?

Angst, to absolutely no one's surprise, followed by Time-Travel Fix-it, to a few people's surprise.

69. What are your favorite fics at the moment?

Oof. I was almost hoping no one would ask this one, because I have so many favourites it's not even funny. I think the one I'm most invested in atm is Last Wishes by i_am_the_imposter_syndrome over on ao3. Y'know, if I have to pick one.

74. Do you have a fic you wish got a bit more love?

From me or from readers? Because if it's from me, I have this one wip called All Eyes on You that I posted the first couple of chapters from and then abandoned, so I wish I'd given it more of a chance.

From my readers? Honestly, I wish I was getting more support for the current fic I'm working on, Can't Escape the Fallout. I love it, but the audience is relatively small, and I knew that going in, but it's still... I went from one of the biggest fandoms (Star Wars) to Empires, and while I'm happy with the switch, I know the number of hits on my works has gone down and thus so has my motivation.

79. Do you have any writing advice you want to share?

I'm trying to think, but every bit of writing advice is either a) something I ignore, or 2) has fled my mind. So... Find the character's voice. Their vocabulary, their accent, their cadence. (it's real easy if your story is based on a piece of fiction that has an auditory component) But that helps with internal monologue and external dialogue. Trust me, it helps so much.

Whew! That was a long list (sorry for the long answers, I just have a lot to say when asked about my wips), but I'm glad you asked. Thank you!

I've been doing a lot of thinking about how and why interior design became a special interest of mine.

It must have started in my childhood, growing up neurodivergent with a need for order and consistency, but being surrounded by chaos and clutter; my parents had way more kids and house than they could manage.

Then there's the aspect of it being a creative outlet that allows me to practice control over my surroundings and lifestyle, to have a space that is entirely practical and stylish. It gives me long-term projects that challenge my skills and knowledge and rewards me with lasting results, something I can share with people and feel proud of.

And of course, there is an exciting element of curation; not just renovating the base to be an aesthetic background to the furnishings and details, but finding the pieces of furniture and decor themselves and assembling them into a collective work of art. This satisfies my inner goblin.

I thought I would have done so much more with my living situations since moving out of my parents house, but I haven't lived anywhere for more than 1.5 years since then and it's been so hard to want to put in effort when my living situation is not set in stone. I've always just put up with whatever was there and hope that the basic shapes and colors were clean enough to tolerate.

And so I've never really had a space I felt truly and wholly in control of, ever.

That's probably a big reason why, ever since the offer on the house was accepted, I've been obsessing over my dreams, plans and ideas for the house, every moment, even dreaming about it.

I'm not comfortable with this level of obsession and find myself actively looking to escape from it. Before, these types of ideas were just pining and dreams, so I held them at a distance. Now I find myself frightened of how intensely I focus on them.

The wait till closing date will be rough.

This thing I have been waiting for and dreaming of my entire adult life is finally happening and it can't come soon enough.

You can be proud of being queer and still be closeted. Ashamed isn't the same as afraid.

hi! may i please request a matchup for obey me? preferably one of the brothers but anyone's fine.

i'm a gay trans guy and i have a little goblin of a cat named ginger :)

im 5'2, an aries and an INFP.

i like to read and draw and play more casual videogames. i get sick a lot unfortunately.

i care about my friends a lot and they tend to describe me as kind (and also a dumbass) and i will fight someone for them. i have to be stopped from doing stupid things like smash a glass bottle onto the concrete bc chaos fuels me.

i get my feelings hurt easily and i have a hard time with trust, so at first i try to be distant (and kind of icy if they do hurt my feelings) but i warm up to people after a while.

i like the whole punk movement as well as the fashion and music :)

im very affectionate with those i trust and will very gladly latch onto the nearest person if the opportunity arises.

i also am very well versed in the act of napping! i once caused a school wide panic because i took a nap in a cupboard and no one could fine me for two hours after school :) proud moment coming out of that cupboard.

iiii cant come up with anymore rn so!

thank you so much and have a wonderful day!

bonus cat for reading all that lmao

C'mon you're going to send me a picture of your adorable cat and think I wouldn't match you up with Satan?? Nah, I'm jk that's not the only reason why I'm matching you up with him. BUT LMAO THE SCHOOL THING WAS SO FUNNY TO ME

The fact that you like to read is very attractive to the demon. He likes watching you draw and has been trying to learn how to do so himself. He's never really been very big on video games, but he can never say no to you when you ask him to play a game with you. He's read a lot of fo books on human anatomy, so he's always right there by your side to take care of you. Satan is most definitely the one to stop you from doing stupid and chaotic things because he'll definitely worry about you (though he sometimes joins you in your dumb antics and no one can stop the power couple). Being the Avatar of Wrath, Satan tends to get angry a lot, but he tries not to yell or get mad at you. If he ever hurts your feelings, you best believe he's buying you flowers, taking you out on a nice date, the works. Satan is very interested in your fashion and music taste, so please rant to him about it <3 He's sometimes very big on PDA and other times he's not, but he'll always let you hold onto him <3 He's kind of like a cat, he'll take naps literally any and everywhere, so you two are often found taking naps in the oddest places

We’ll Say Goodbye Today (And I'm Sorry How It Ends This Way)

Tony used to joke around, saying that Peter would be the death of him, and now, here they were. 

Read on AO3 (Warning: MCD)

Peter and Tony were having a productive day. 

Well, they were definitely trying their best. 

Peter did adore the times they joined forces and took on bad guys together, he was fairly sure that Tony did too. 

The Iron Man and Spider-Man duo were becoming quite notorious, in the public and criminal eye. The former meant they were the subject of countless Twitter memes, and the latter was genuinely terrifying at times, but Peter felt safer with Tony closeby.

Their day got off to a slow start. 

Enter, the self-proclaimed Green Goblin, a masked menace in a green suit, equipped with a hoverboard and explosives. Tony and Peter purposefully steered him away from the city, that way, he couldn’t harm innocent civilians. 

“Mr. Stark!” Peter watched on helplessly, hanging off a disused streetlight. 

The Green Goblin’s arm was locked around Tony’s front, in a merciless grip. They were too high up, hovering meters away from Peter, not even a web would reach them. 

Peter gripped onto the metal, with both hands and clumsily swung himself forward, trying to create enough momentum to jump into a standing position. He could do more to help with the use of his hands. 

He stopped moving when he heard the familiar whirring sound of the repulsors. 

He darted his eyes up, the blast hit the Green Goblin square in the chest and sent him flying.

Tony lost control of the suit and was flung away in the opposite direction. He spun, faster than Peter’s eyes could comprehend, “Mr. Stark!”

Tony didn’t answer. The suit was lifeless, there was not a single glimmer of light. Tony free-fell, through the glass ceiling of an abandoned clock tower, and he didn’t fly back up.

Peter swallowed the bile in his throat and attached a web to the streetlamp, he swung forward, going as fast as he could to get there, “Mr. Stark!” He screamed as he scampered across the broken foundations of the roof.

A sharp groan echoed below, “Hey, kid.” 

Peter peered down, trying to ignore the sound of cracking glass and bent metal beneath his feet, he drew a long breath, with a hand on his hip, “Tony.”

Tony pushed himself up into a sitting position, “Now you call me Tony.” He snorted a laugh and shook his head, “Typical.” He was surrounded by a thousand shards of glass, and his suit was retracted, so his only protection was an expensive sweatsuit. 

The arc reactor on his chest that powered the nano-suit was dead.

Tony carefully got onto his feet, he wasn’t on solid ground, the metallic gears that turned the clock were under his feet, and of course, the glass too. He winced, pressing a hand on his back.

“You okay?”

“A bruised vertebrae, maybe…” Tony lifted his shoulder, in a half shrug, “But what else is new. I did just fall twenty feet.” He bent his head back, to look in Peter’s direction, “I’ve got good news and bad news. Take your pick.”

“Um, good news?” Peter called down, “I guess.” 

Tony let out a solemn sigh, “You’re doing really well.” He praised, coming up with something on the spot, “Proud of you.”

Peter rolled his eyes, but the frustration was hidden behind his mask, “The bad?”

Tony tapped his hand against the arc reactor, to no prevail, “Either the fall or hoverboard guy somehow managed to scramble Friday.” He explained, “Probably the latter. My suits down.”

Peter nodded, “So, what now?”

The distant squeak of the hoverboard zoomed nearby, Peter flinched. 

“I don’t want you fighting this guy alone!” Tony bellowed, in his best ‘dad’ voice, “Let’s get out of here and come back better prepared.” He suggested, “Preferably with backup.”

“Okay.” Peter eased himself down through the wreckage, he clung to a surviving beam with one hand and used the other to attach a web to the wall, he landed a few steps away from Tony. He beckoned over to his mentor, “Alright, can you--”

Peter’s senses screamed, he jerked his attention up to the night sky and witnessed a small orange ball drop, it hit the floor, between the pair, “Peter!”

Peter charged for Tony, he nudged him to the side, away from the blast. 

The bomb went off, forcing the pair apart.  

Tony lost his footing and slipped off the edge, a daunting three-hundred-foot drop was ready to welcome him.

Not on Peter’s watch. 

Peter leapt forward, catching Tony’s forearm with practised ease, “I got you, Mr. Stark.” 

“Thanks, kid.” Tony dangled over the drop, but he wasn’t even shaking, he looked more confident than ever; he nodded and flashed his signature grin, his trust in Peter shined in his eyes. 

“Okay.” The whoosh of the hoverboard flew overhead, “Alright…” He webbed up Tony’s arm and quickly lowered him onto the set of gears below, “Stay there.”

Tony’s confidence wavered, “Wait.” He narrowed his eyes, “Kid, don’t you dare.”

Peter didn’t have any other choice, “Hey, Mr. Goblin Guy!” He turned his attention to the problem at hand, “Over here.” He jumped onto the wall, diverting the Green Goblin’s focus, who followed along with the plan, unknowingly. 

Peter scurried across the wall, fast on his feet, leaning on an angle.

“Karen, we need backup.” He summoned as he avoided the Green Goblin’s fruitless attacks.

“War Machine is on route.” She chirped back, “And Happy is driving over to meet you.” 

“ETA?”

“Fifteen minutes.”

Peter wasn’t sure if he could keep this guy preoccupied for that long, he would have to try, “Tell them to hurry.” He waved a hand, “Come on!” He taunted, “This way.”

The Green Goblin was growing tired of Peter’s antics. He bolted toward him, Peter moved out of the way, and the hoverboard collided with the brick wall. The Green Goblin shrieked, as he fell onto his backside.

The hoverboard hissed, that couldn’t be good. 

It dropped from the wall, barrelling through the gears below. The gears started to move, they scraped and churned against one another. Peter could tell they hadn’t been functional for years, but one clumsy hit from a supervillain's hoverboard and they were off again. 

It sliced right through the gears that Tony was trying to navigate his way across, Peter sent a web down and caught Tony’s hand, in the nick of time. 

“Thanks again, kid.” He groaned, there was no ledge or space for him to be lowered onto, “Let’s get out of here now.”

“Yeah.” Peter went to swing out, but a hand grabbed him from behind. He’d been too concerned about protecting his mentor and didn’t register the looming danger.

Tony yelped, “No!”

The Green Goblin smacked Peter’s head off the uneasy ‘ground’ and then wrapped a hand around his neck, “Get off me.” Peter scrambled; he attached the web, that was keeping Tony up, on the side of a gear. 

“Kid!” Tony screamed, he’d never sounded so scared, not in the entire time they’d known one another. 

Peter’s heart yearned for the confidence from minutes before. 

“Mr-” 

The gears squeaked and clicked over another notch. Screws came loose, and debris started falling around them. 

Peter’s world blurred.

He heard a definitive and familiar snap.

“Mr. Stark!” 

Debris crashed into the Green Goblin and sent him hurtling into a wall. 

Peter rolled off the edge. 

Tony was falling, arms splayed out to their sides. 

Peter held out his hand, he dodged the objects that were falling with him, pressed down on his web-shooter and sent a web in Tony’s direction. 

Everything was slow. 

Peter kept his hand steady. 

Tony’s eyes welled with tears, and he spoke, but the sound was lost among the chaos. 

Peter knew what he said.

Peter.

The web caught around Tony’s middle.

Peter held out a hand, catching himself on a pole, and he tried to maintain his hold.

There was an unnerving crack when Tony hit the ground and then there was only silence. 

Peter attached the webbing to the pole and leapt down, fast. 

He landed, a few paces away.

“Mr. Stark?” 

He ripped his mask off, over his head and tossed it to the ground. He stepped over, cautiously. 

He snapped the webbing, clean in two, with his bare hand. He was too distracted to realise that it should have been practically impossible to rip like that, especially with its duality. 

“Mr. Stark?” Peter collapsed onto his knees as Tony’s body listlessly fell, in a heap, “Hey....” He caught Tony’s wrist,  “I got you, Mr. Stark.” He looped an arm under his back and manoeuvred him until they were in a comfortable position.

Tony’s eyes were shut.

“Mr. Stark?” He moved his hand, nudging Tony’s cheek, “Karen?”

“I’m sorry, Peter--”

“No.”

“He’s gone.

“No.”

“It was--”

Peter howled a scream into the nothingness.

Karen stopped protesting.  

Peter rocked, with Tony sprawled lifelessly across his lap, “Mr. Stark, wake up.”

Nothing.

“Mr. Stark.” Peter whimpered, “Please, I don’t want you to go!” His chest rose and fell with rapid sharp breaths, “We’re safe now.” He breathed, into the silence, “It’s over.” 

He choked on a sob. 

He combed a trembling hand back through Tony’s hair, hoping it provided the same comfort it did when it was the other way around. 

“Happy’s gonna be here real soon. He’s gonna save our asses, right?” He teased humourlessly, “That’s what you always say. You gotta give him a pay rise.”

Peter pulled Tony up, closer to his chest. 

“Mr. Stark?” He cradled Tony’s head in his hand, “You’re gonna be okay.” He shuddered, “You’re always okay. You’re Tony Stark.” 

He wobbled, back and forth. 

Tony was making no movement of his own. 

With each strained breath, Peter’s desperation grew, “Cho- she’s gonna help us. She’s gonna--” 

He blinked away tears. 

“You just gotta wake up.”

He stifled a scream, at the sight of blood gushing out of Tony’s nose. 

“No.”

He could feel blood seeping through the suit onto his hand. 

“Please, Mr. Stark, I don’t want you to go!” He roared, “...Don’t want you to go.” He reclined his head and wailed, “Tony, please!” 

There was no reply. Not even a jerk of a limb. 

Peter muttered faintly, “I can’t do this without you.”

He lowered his chin to his chest, sobs tore through his body, paralysing him. 

He shuffled back, gently guiding Tony down onto his side. He ignored the unnatural angle his mentor’s body was in. 

Peter sought shelter under Tony’s arm, pining for comfort. He hugged his knees close and bent his forehead against Tony’s chest. 

There was no heartbeat but there was familiarity. 

“Please, Tony...” Peter scrunched his eyes shut, his breaths quickly became laboured and unrhythmic, “I need you.” He wept and laid his arm over Tony’s hip, “I tried...” He moved in closer, “I’m sorry.”

Peter caused this, he was too slow and didn’t catch him in time.

Tony used to joke around, saying that Peter would be the death of him, and now, here they were. 

“I’m so sorry.” Peter balled his hand around Tony’s jacket and tugged, “Dad.”

Peter must have passed out.

When he came to, he wasn’t on the ground, he was being held securely in someone’s arms. 

He cracked an eye open and peered up, Happy’s haunted face greeted him.  

Disorder reverberated around. 

People, agents probably, were shouting over one another, and there was also the unmistakable sound of a shell-shocked Rhodey comforting a hysterical Pepper.

Peter closed his eyes and rolled his head limply against Happy’s chest.

Happy moved until he had a firm grip around Peter’s legs. 

Happy sniffled, “I’ve got him, Tony.” He was unaware of Peter’s consciousness, “I promise, I'm gonna keep him safe.” 

Peter respected Happy’s words but he didn’t care. 

He didn’t care about anything. 

When Tony Stark hit that ground and breathed his last, Peter Parker died with him. 

Happy was cradling a corpse, he just didn’t know it yet.

hi! could i please get a tdp & pokémon (swsh) matchup? i'm a bi girl. curious, imaginative & open-minded, i enjoy learning about new things. very talkative & analytical! i like to think i'm a good conversationalist & listener, & i do my best to be compassionate & a good friend. pretty affectionate & patient w loved ones, but i can be indecisive & prone to overthinking. "chaos goblin" humour. majoring in anthropology, but i also love history, mythology & language. i like to write & draw. thanks!

l pair you with Sonia!

 -Being curious and wanting to learn more about things is a must for being in a relationship with Sonia. She couldn't’ stand being with someone who isn’t at least semi-curious about the world around them and the mysteries that can still be solved. 

 - Being talkative would be nice-she enjoys conversations, especially about science and the region. Also, an analytical personality would be great too-she’d want to take you with her on all of her research travels to see if a second pair you eyes could find something she couldn’t. 

 - She’s pretty good at being decisive, though she also has problems with overthinking things. She would be happy to help talk through your possible choices to make in a situation. Maybe in turn, you could help her with her overthinking. 

 - She would be super interested in your anthropology studies and would want to know everything you’re learning. That would be a study she would love to hear about since it’s similar to what she does for her own research. She’d love to talk about mythology as well! 

 - Sonia also enjoys to write and is very passionate about it. She wrote and got her book published, so she’d definitely be willing to do more writing, maybe even a collaboration with you! She’d praise your own writing quite often too, and would be really proud of you.

Homebrew D&D Campaign: Ohalette's Domain

So this morning I've been in a extremely creative mood, so I decided to write a campaign that I've always had floating about in my brain.

To give a brief overview of what I'm writing:

Setting

The campaign takes place in the Amaraviel galaxy on the planet Vil Gal. Sister planet to Urelith, sharing one moon: Hebriniel.

Story takes place in the Dridith Empire. A place Where unrest lives, there's talks of an impeding fall of the Empire and it's Embasy Alience as recently, most districts are at constant battle or disputes with each other and themselves. An empire where crime, desease, poverty and foul creatures roam rampant.

Basic Story

Two mysterious and powerful Drow brothers, named Ohalette and Layorac, appeared about 10 years ago which local legend attributes to how everything fell apart so fast in the Empire.

Very few had come in contact with the Drow and lived, they state that these mysterious beings are gods, able to bend time itself to their will.

Whispers in the Goldwald district told of a name for these beings. Chronomancers? Gods Of Time? Nobody knows, all they know is that monstrous creatures have started appearing all over the Empire.

About 3 years ago, survival rates of these encounters rose briefly. Survivals told of a war between the two brothers that devastated local lands. Of how Layorac had fallen for a mortal being and had become soft, no longer wishing for destruction and death to be attributed to his name.

Enraged, Ohalette killed his brothers lover. A vicious battle ending in the dissapearence of said brother, Layorac ensued. Ohalette, victorious, is said to be still reigning his terror over the lands. Some folk believe Layorac is dead, most believe him to be in hiding, plotting to kill his brother.

General Devashus, under rule of King Asarker of the Goldwald district and The Dridith Embasy has started hiring adventurers to clear out invading monsters but more importantly, find Layorac. Asking for them to win his trust and finally find a way to defeat Ohalette and bring peace to the Dridith Empire, before it collapses into war.

Story will either start at the Embasy Alience halls where the party will be hired or around the Goldwald district.

Finding Layorac

As the party start clearing out towns of monstrosity after monstrosity/exploring different towns in the Goldwald district they will eventually be given enough details in whispers or NPC interactions to find where Layorac is in hiding*

*(Note DM will get to choose which town or where in Goldwald this Drow is hiding)

Once Layorac has been found the party will find out there is a certain way to defeat Ohalette, and they must traverse each and every district in a certain order. Collecting everything they need to defeat him and levelling up enough to face him but Layorac cannot be the one to kill his brother. He will guide the party through the nine districts but will not follow them into the final battle.

Important Subplot:

*To note

The DM may choose to hide this from the party or hint at it through various puzzles/NPC interactions and the likes

---

There are nine (9) districts that make up the Dridith Empire, each representing the circles of hell from The Divine Comedy -Dante's Inferno. Each district corresponds with a circle of hell and enemies and allies vary on which district/circle you are exploring.

This is why Layorac insists to the party that they MUST traverse each district in a certain order. It's the only way to access the plane in which Ohalette can escape to and exist within.

*To note

Although the DM may choose which types of monsters/enemies their party will face, make sure as a DM, you use corresponding monster types for each district.

Districts and Enemies

1. Goldwald

Limbo

Goldwald is the Capital of the Dridithian Empire, home of the Embasy Alience halls and Where the story begins. The town's of Goldwald are often nostalgic and comforting upon first glace yet at closer look, they seem to be TOO familiar. As if you've been here before or atleast, you've been going in circles? Maybe check a map. Or maybe this place doesn't want you to leave

Traversing through Goldwald the types of enemies you will find are ghostlike in nature.

Typically ghosts or undead creatures

2. Greymont

Lust

Greymont is an unruly place where locals welcome strangers a little too warmly. Brothels are the main establishments found and provide the vast majority of Greymonts income and revenue. Known throughout the Empire as the settlement best for merriment. Best to not loose your bard here. They may wish to stay.

A harder look at this place reveals that succubus and incubus type monsters are everywhere terrorising unsuspecting visitors, locals and adventurers

3. Miskwick

Gluttony

Known throughout the Empire as THE place to go for a good meal, Miskwick trade in food and beverage. Their food is said to be so good you wish to eat nothing more that their food forever. Constantly leaving you hungry for more, almost like a craving. Adventurers should be wary of certain establishments who claim their food is divine. If something is too good to believe it may hide a secret. Eating the food at those places will ensure you never want to leave.

The monsters found here, without question, are ever hungry and almost terrifyingly gluttonous maybe even, dare say it... gelatinous.

4. Shadehaven

Greed

Shadehaven is a rather unwelcomingly dull place to traverse. Locals are untrustworthy of strangers and trading with locals can sometimes prove, challenging to say the least. Willing to buy and horde items from eager adventurers but unwilling to sell, it could be said that these parts are full of greedy and ungrateful folk. It may just be the monstrous company they seem to keep.

Whispers and tall tales of hoarding monsters are rampant here. The odd goblin den Maybe? Or something a bit..larger and with wings. Does anyone maybe speak dragonic?

5. Aelmoor

Anger

Travellers should beware when traversing through Aelmoor, this is where the first rumours of impeding Empire collapse and war began. Political unrest seems to be the norm in these parts. Many unhappy that the embassy fails to protect them. In fact, adventurers having always being sent around and killed in their district is just not fair. Between the monsters and the countless town riots, a successful party can’t come help soon enough. Providing of course, they prove their worth.

Monsters here seem to be becoming a lot more aggressive in their ambushing, attacking and kidnapping.

6. Esterview

Heresy

Once a peaceful and loving district, Esterview had a reputation of a safe haven for travellers and weary folk alike, know to be a little too superstitious in the past, some may wonder where in the old gods name the many towns religious belief went.

It seems, many folk now seem to be putting their faith into...darker things.

Rumours of cults roaming thee land have spread across the more gods fearing folk around Esterview. They may be in dire need of help.

7. Ibethimel

Violence

Beware, adventuring parties, of this district. Long since fallen into chaos and ruin. Said to be the ground zero of all the original mishap and destruction of The once proud Dridithian Empire.

The poor district had front row seats to the arrival of Ohalette and Layorac and the destruction they caused.

Resentful of any Drow, for good reason!

Things have never been the same in the district since then. The most violent of creatures are found freely wandering most parts of this district. Locals having long given up trying to protect their towns.

8. Orwyn

Fraud

Orwyn was once a very quiet and beloved district frequented by the nicest folk, popular for it's coastal views and warm weather. A tourist trap for sure. That was of course, before the arrival of the monstrous drows and the trouble they brought with. Orwyn was, unfortunetly severely unprepared and unprotected from the attacks. Leaving it a ruined district, a wasteland to date.

Of course, it is still frequented very often...just by a lot more, unsavoury folk. Bandits and thieves now run this district and have made themselves a home for their misdeeds. It’s said they are behind a lot of the unrest in the Empire. Having spies and guilds try and lure out the impending war and collapse of power and wealth.

Of course, it’s safe to say not everyone is who they seem in this district. It may be hard to tell allies from enemies and fair traders from con artists.

I'd have my wits about you in this district if I were you

9. Shadownesse

Treachery

Hey, if you've made it this far then you sure are a tremendous adventurer. You may also have gained enough knowledge, power and items to pull of the greatest heroic feat The Dridithian Empire and maybe even Vil Gal has ever seen! (Or you may die a horrible painful death)

See, Shadownesse is just as the name implies. The district is the darkest place known to Vil Galians and Amaraviels alike. Heck, even those who may or may not be on the Hebriniel moon know that this is not a place you tread lightly. Filled with the darkest and most powerful enemies known across the lands.

This district has become a hotbed for darkness. Some even say this is where Ohalette himself resides, if only to open portals and allow his vile monstrous creatures to enter the plane.

Maybe you should ask Layorac if he knows about it? That is....if you can find him. Swear he was just with your party right? Oh and hey when you do find him...make sure he looks the same...hang on a second.

This district may have just been a trap. Pray to the gods you can defeat Ohalette while you still know how. Pray also that you kill the correct brother and cause of this darkness over the land.

10. The Shadow Planes/Ohalette's Domain

Final end game location:

So you've killed that pesky Drow who seemed...very convincing that you have the wrong brother. I mean, come ON he couldn't possibly think you could be tricked into thinking that HE was actually Layorac and that Ohalette had lead you here.

And you can't possibly be convinced that easily that this phony "layorac" was creating these armies to stop his brother from destroying the Empire from the inside. Nah.

But what does shock your party is that 1. He was super easy to kill (heck yeah..kinda unnerved by the pleading at the end but whatever right?) 2. you all stepped into the portal to get here in this dark abissal plane of existence only to find....Layorac. on a...throne?

Wait that means "Ohalette" must have been right...well, now you must feel stupid right about now.

And well...ready to face the real threat. Yikes.

Goodluck.
