#it was hard to do the height difference because I'm not good at keeping characters consistent or proportions but I made an attempt

Hello! I don't know if you write for the more obscure characters in Botw/Totk but I figured I'd ask just in case ☺️ Could you please write something about Tauro, Purah, Sidon and Zelda dating a Sheikah s/o who's chronically ill/disabled? It'd be great if you could make them specifically have weak bones and be really short too, and they're often upset how people keep babying them because they might fracture or break something. But if you want to keep it more open-ended that's fine too!
Thank you so so much, you're probably my favorite Zelda blog on Tumblr! Your writing and ideas are always like *chefs kiss* 😘! Have a good day and drink lots of water!
Whenever people tell me I'm their favorite anything it literally shocks me because there are SO many fantastic zelda fic blogs on here that I feel are vastly superior - but I thank you nonetheless! 🥰
I'll write for pretty much any character - I just keep romance and nsfw content for adults. So I'd be happy to!
Tauro, as well-mannered and good-natured he is, is amongst the mass where he needs to be reminded that while you are disabled, you aren't incapable of doing normal things. He tries his best to remember that, but his rambunctious and steadfast nature leads him to be righteous and helpful, even when it's not needed. Plus given his height, he always just assumes that people tend to need help to reach things in tall places if he's ever around. He does try his best to be sensitive to your needs and wants, however, tapping his hand to his chest when he catches himself doing too much. Instead, he makes an effort to remind himself to wait for you to ask him should you need anything. Very affectionate, otherwise - he enjoys making you smile and wrapping his big ol' bear arms around you (albeit, he's careful not to actually squeeze you too hard because he does NOT know his own strength) and is very attentive on the days that you specifically don't feel well and your body leaves you in a weaker state than normal.
Purah, being the research fanatic and accomplished scientist that she is, is already aware and well read on your illness. That, however, has never stopped her from being absolutely smitten with you. Where she is boisterous and outlandish, there is a careful resilience to you that she keeps close to her heart. She sees your frustration often with the townsfolk who treat you with unnecessary delicacy, and while she understands the "good-intent", she feels as you do: chronic illness should not beget differential treatment. When you express your frustrations, she's an open ear always. Purah is never one to explain why the people of your community act this way that leans in their favor, but rather why their attitudes should not portray you under a fragile light when you are anything but. She empathizes with you greatly, knowing exactly what it's like for your own people to treat you like you're something you're not (her experiences with de-aging left quite the mark), but she assures you that you've always got her on your side.
“I’ve never much like everyone else…and neither have you,” Purah muses, tapping her recorder in her hand. She lifts her glasses, her crimson eyes blazing in your direction with admiration and sincerity, “I guess that makes us a cut above the rest, now doesn’t it?”
Sidon is about as bubbly with you as you can imagine. That sharp smile completely alight when you're with him. His height difference compared to yours doesn't bother him considering he towers greatly over just about everyone he meets, so as long as you don’t care (which he secretly hopes you don’t!) then all is well. When he learns about your chronic illness, he’s at first admittedly worried, but he sees how much you value your independence and doesn’t push you to do less than anything you’re up for. Sidon, having learned his healing capabilities from Mipha, will actually offer to “bathe” with you whenever you’re not feeling especially strong, letting the softness of his magically imbued water immerse your body and take any pain or pressure off of your form for a while and bring you some ease. You don’t take him up on it often, half because you don’t feel it’s always necessary, and half because you don’t want to impose - though of course Sidon would refute you ever being an imposition upon him. He chooses his words very carefully, making sure to give you the impression that he’s willing to do whatever you need should you need something from him, but without overstepping and making you feel incapable.
“You’ll never be without, my darling,” Sidon whispers, taking your hand, those slit-pupiled eyes softening as he brushes back a lock of your silver-white hair, “But I will never claim to know you better than yourself.”
Zelda has always been a ball of curiosity, that’s one of the things you love about her. She has an awfully curious mind, so when you explain to her about your chronic illness for the first time, she of course asks you a lot of questions. You laugh thinking about back then, how she felt terrible for borderline prying into your life though she wanted to know everything about you at that time. You remember assuring her that it was fine, and it made you incredibly grateful that Impa had introduced you before she stepped down - it allowed you two to get close. The times that you’ve gone to town together, Zelda takes notice of how people tend to treat you akin to porcelain: delicate, fragile, some even giving off the impression that you’re a lost cause because of your Sheikah heritage. Combined with your stature (with Zelda herself being on the shorter side of an average Hylian’s height), it’s enough to infuriate you both. You two tend to bounce off of one another: shes sticks up for you when you feel like someone’s unnecessarily babying you, and you put your two cents in whenever someone is overly cautious and hovering due to her status, even after proving herself beyond capable. Ultimately she too understands your plight of people looking at you differently because of who are you or what they know about you. She recants the days when her father treated her as helpless and small, hyper focused on keeping her in line rather than letting her be her own person. She takes your hand, intertwining fingers with yours and lending you a genuine smile.
“But we are not weak. We are not frail or easily broken. I am not defined entirely by my title,” Zelda kisses the top of your hand before gently covering it with her other in an endearing move, “And you are not defined by your illness.”

Well, this is... Less unexpected than I probably should have been thinking, honestly? Uh. Hi?!
//Currently in a right ankle Walking Boot and left wrist ace bandage, alternating between rolling around in a wheelchair and using a cane to walk!
//This is self-insert Faller that fell from the real world into the pokemon world, and still references the real world. If this would be harmful for you, please don't proceed! I will not be using the unreaIity tag, as I have spoken with people and it's been determined it would do more harm than good in this case. Please don't feel bad about blocking my blogs if you need to, I understand.

//Not doing the mod mixup fyi, but don't mind interacting with those that are!
//rotomblr, pokemon irl, roleplay
Magic Anons off, Pelipper Mail on.
My name is Maya Knight. I used to be an anon that didn't use anon, but now it looks like I'm actually here. Getting used to this is gooooonna take a bit, so please be patient with me.
I'm an adult woman. She/Her pronouns, but I'm not really fussy about it. I will be slightly confused and not realize you're talking about me though lol.
I hate being called Miss and a Girl. I'm a Ms and I'm a Woman. I worked hard to make it this far, I'm claiming every one of those years, thanks.
Here's a picture I guess! Under the cut.

//OOC
...I gave up lmao. This is MadameMaya, I finally made baby's first blorbo! It me, except Me+. She's quite a bit stronger than normal, but not for fighting. It's literally just so she can pick people and pokemon up really easily lmao. I'm also playing with a different version of the good old anon magic that I'm so used to having available. It's all text based; she can only use it if she sends an ask instead of all the time, and it's getting nerfed. I'm still fiddling with details, bear with me here. This is my first time RPing, so I'm learning.
If you knew me as an anon, it's literally the same person; she just 'Fell' into the pokemon world. Yup, we've got a Faller situation here. I intend to keep the relationships I already had as an anon and just continue them here, in person.
Pertinent Info: Adult Character, adult mod! She's the same age as me irl: 34. If you're not comfortable with either of those, just let me know and we can avoid each other, all good. Put whether you're an adult in your pinned or description, please! I personally am not comfortable rping with a mod under 15
Height around 5'6, weighs a little more than she looks, slightly baby faced but it's not enough to mistake her as a teenager. Tends to be in comfy clothes, identifies as a woman and uses She/Her pronouns.
Definitely Autistic, I'm not gonna try to play a neurotypical lol. She's also Suicidally Depressed but it's being treated - so am I. If you aren't comfortable with that, once again just say so and we can avoid each other.
Aromantic Asexual, the blog will probably touch on some adult topics, but the most sexual it will ever get is making jokes. Of which I will not be doing if I'm talking to a minor character, or a minor mod. Tags to avoid in that case are Minors DNI and NSFW. I'll be putting other topics like suicidal depression related things and serious injury under their own tags.
This is her house, because I need visuals for more own use if nothing else.
If you think I missed tagging something, poke me and I'll double check.

In the last hours of my birthday, I come here to make use of my birthday privilege(?)
I ask... For anything you can give me, Roach headcanons, Jackson headcanons, more bts, or something about Makarov, headcanons of past Simon, Gaz and Jackson, or past/present Soap, Laswell and Laswell's wife, or Price.... Anything you can give, seriously. I love so much SiTO I accept every crumb you can give me
But, a mandatory thing. Use this ask to ramble about Roach, game Roach or SiTO Roach.
I love so much your fic, is consuming my life. Everytime I see an update, I just scream. And how much you share about the fic here, makes me so happy. Keep writing please.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Happy Birthday!!!! I would be honored to ramble for you!
ROACH MY BELOVED
He's my little skrunkly cryptid guy and I will always rant about him
I think that he learned his knife skills from Ghost
When he joined the 141 he was obviously extremely skilled with weapons and ranged fighting, but the team found out pretty quickly that he basically had no experience with hand-to-hand
So Soap/Captain MacTavish paired him with Ghost to have Ghost teach him because he had the most experience out of the team
This is how Past! Simon fell for Roach and how Roach fell for him
Essentially they spent hours together in training and Ghost just became attached to Roach and vice versa
Idk if anyone else kinda thought this/drew the comparison, but some of Roach's special takedowns in MW2 remind me of a takedown that Ghost would do (which is where this comes from)
Specifically the two in Cliffhanger, like they're both so violent that they make me thing of Simon "Stab a man 8 times before killing him" Riley
Speaking of which, you may remember that I mentioned that Past! Soap was in love with Roach. Well he doesn't know it, but essentially he's the reason that he and Roach aren't together.
Roach had a thing for Soap before Ghost in the first life, but his feelings faded and instead grew for Ghost because of their training together
Also I'm like 100% sure that the reason why they couldn't put Roach in the new MW2 is because they knew he'd be too powerful 😔
He would have killed Graves and all present Shadow Company members right as they started their betrayal and he would have looked good doing it
No but seriously I do think they've kinda backed themselves into a corner a bit with Roach because they've canonically made him:
A) hard to kill
B) insanely good with any weapon, like better than even Price and Ghost
So I think the only way it works to bring him back is to have him be the character that we play as again. So I can kind of understand why he wouldn't show up in MW2 if they'd set themselves on having Soap and Gaz be the playable characters
That being said, I better see him in MW3 or SO HELP ME GOD
EVEN AS AN OPERATOR PLEASE I WILL PAY GOOD MONEY I WILL FUND IT MYSELF IF I HAVE TO
I like to think that, in his first life especially, Roach liked to climb to high places
Soap and Ghost would go to the training room and look up and he's just chilling in the rafters because he finds it calming
This is one of the reasons I think he chooses to climb to the top of the armory when he's having his panic attack earlier in the story
Heights just relax him for some reason
Takes to wearing a mask in his first life because of Simon. When Ghost tells him why he wears it, he decides he's going to start wearing masks as well.
He can't do the full balaclava like Simon does, so he settles for a half mask
If the current life, he doesn't wear masks much on missions. He's just fallen out of the habit of it.
That being said, it is common for him to pull his scarf up to cover the bottom half of his face during missions
He does it off missions too though
I like to think that if he gets embarrassed or nervous he pulls it up to cover his face
Past! Simon and Current! Simon had very different rules about their masks
Past! Simon wore his all the time while on missions and would put it on while on base as well. However, when on base he was much more willing to pull it off. Typically he would take it off while training. Sometimes he just takes it off because he feels like it. This only happens if its just the 141 around. Never wears it while out in his civvy stuff.
To him, the mask is a work thing only. A way to allow himself separation and anonymity while at work so that nothing follows him home again. He would never wear any sort of mask while out with Roach because it's not really about his face or his scars.
For Current! Simon, the mask is an all the time thing. He's so worried about someone recognizing him and him losing the things important to him that he would just prefer if no one saw his face ever. This also, I think, comes from some insecurity on his part, though he'd never admit it.
So he wears the mask all the time. If he goes out with the team, its either a face mask, or the balaclava that he got from the ghost team mission. The only time he isn't wearing a mask is when he's alone with someone he really trusts. So typically only when he's with Soap and Roach.
Okay quick rant for a minute because I'm still not over it:
WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP SAYING ROACH IS CANONICALLY BRITISH?
NO SERIOUSLY AM I MISSING SOME KEY PIECE OF CANONICAL INFORMATION THAT EVERYONE ELSE HAS SEEN ABOUT HIM?
When I try to look it up, the only things I get are fandom websites saying he's British with no actual proof or sources to back them up
Everyone keeps saying he was SAS, but like as far as I can tell that was never confirmed and since the 141 is a multinational group its fully possible that he's American?
His model from COD Mobile has an American flag patch, which I know people have said its because they used the design from another character, but like you're telling me they couldn't, at the very least, change the flag?
I'm also fairly certain you can see him in the museum in MW2 and he has an American flag patch there as well (unless I'm mistaking someone else for Roach)
Literally any time you look up his character model and he has an American flag patch
I can't find a source confirming that he's British. As far as I know Soap doesn't mention his nationality in his journal (I need to get my hands on it still but surely someone would have mentioned if it did)
And I don't think its confirmed in any of the comics either?
SO PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOODNESS CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT I'M MISSING CAUSE I'M NOT SEEING HOW THIS BOY ISN'T BASICALLY CANONICALLY AMERICAN AT THIS POINT
Okay, back to our regularly scheduled program
Some quick BTS stuff
I recently had to do some research into Makarov's backstory in the games (for an upcoming chapter 🤗) and let me tell you, I did not realize how old this man was during the events of the game
HE'S FUCKING 47 WHEN HE DIES BRO
FOR SOME REASON I THOUGHT HE WAS LIKE 30
This is all to say that it made me think more about the ages of the characters. So I've decided that Roach was likely almost thirty when he died in his first life and he's nearing thirty again in the present
So, with all the time that has passed so far, Roach is actually currently about a week and a few days out from his birthday in the story
I will also point out, to anyone who has forgotten: when the team celebrate Roach's birthday in Chapter 9, they're actually celebrating his birthday about a month in advance.
I would also love to talk about the differences in Makarov calling Roach Insect and Ghost and Soap calling him Bug.
Bug is like an affectionate nickname. Its cute, its unassuming, you can tell that they mean it in a loving way
Makarov calling Roach "Insect" is almost degrading. Its like he's nothing more than a nuisance. Its said in an almost mockery of the way that Soap and Ghost call him "Bug"
However, I would like to point out, that Makarov probably doesn't see it this way. When he calls Roach "Insect" he means it in an affectionate way. To him, Insect isn't degrading or meant to make Roach feel small, its a nod to who he is.
He's not reducing Roach to something small and unassuming like the word "bug" implies, but is rather acknowledging that Roach is a capable person who can be deadly and dangerous.
Of course, this is how his mind see's it, but the reality is also that he certainly uses the name Insect to remind Roach that he is essentially nothing anymore. Nothing outside of the purpose that he gives him.
I would also like to say that I think Makarov is genuinely in love with Roach and, if Roach did actually give into him, I think his obsession would grow to a very very dangerous point
Like a "I need to keep him locked in this room for safety. No one can see him because they might try to kill him. I have to keep him alive. I have to keep him alive. He's all I have. He's mine." Kinda deal
Would essentially turn into Roach only being allowed out when he's with Makarov or not being allowed to leave a room/the compound at all
The real question is, would Roach ever actually give in to Makarov?
I think the only way he would is if all of the members of the 141 were dead. I genuinely think that if that happened, he would be so broken by it that Makarov would be able to easily come in as the "only thing you have left" person and fully manipulate him while he's at his worst
If even one member of the team is alive though? No chance. Roach would sooner kill himself then turn to Makarov.
Okay let's leave the worlds biggest creep (Makarov) and move to the worlds cutest throuple (ghostroachsoap)
They're favorite activity is cuddling
Will, very literally, spend all day in bed together if given the chance
I think Soap and Roach like to drag Simon out to watch movies with them
They like scary movies but only Simon is really able to handle them well so it usually turns into him with an arm around each of them as they hide their faces in his chest during the scary parts
Naturally, its one of Simon's favorite activities
Love to play wrestle
Particularly I think Soap and Roach like to gang up on Ghost and try to wrestle him down (they always fail)
However, Soap and Roach will wrestle between themselves playfully until Ghost has to pull them apart for getting "too rowdy"
This is typically when they turn on him
Soap has literally the coldest hands and feet imaginable and he thinks its hilarious to randomly walk up behind Roach (the human heater (if anyone makes a joke about his death here we will be fighting)) and put his hands on the back of his neck
Roach jumps every time and let's out the most undignified squeal at it
Ghost thinks the noise he makes is adorable to he never warns Roach ahead of time, even when he's literally watching Soap walk up to him
They swap who's in the middle of the cuddle pile, but usually its Roach because he's the smallest so Soap and Ghost can still touch/hold each other around him
Ghost likes it when Soap and Roach just lay across him with like their full body weight. Usually one of them is laying across his chest and the other has their head on his lap or laying across his legs
Soap and Ghosts morning voices literally drive Roach crazy. Like its gets to a point where if they have to be somewhere in the morning he has to forbid them to talk so they can actually leave without him either dragging them back to bed or having to take a very very cold shower
Roach is the biggest flirt without realizing it. Like he genuinely doesn't realize he's flirting most of the time, he just thinks they're having a normal conversation/joking
This causes numerous instances of Soap and Ghost dragging Roach back to their room desperately because of his flirting while he's just there like "???😃???"
They only really hate it when he ends up accidentally flirting with other people without realizing it. This happens a lot while the three are out in their civilian stuff.
Soap and Ghost are fairly jealous/possessive, but Roach is typically very chill/doesn't get bothered with people flirting/crushing on the two. He really just trusts them completely
Even when he was only in love with Ghost and Gjost was with Soap, he wasn't really jealous, so much as he was just sad and a little angry
That all being said, when he does get jealous? Oh boy, he gets jealous
Like worse than Soap and Ghost in terms of handling his feelings when it comes to jealousy
Actually throws a rock at someone at one point over his jealousy kinda beat (don't worry he missed them because he was so blinded by his jealousy)
However, Soap and Ghost think he's fucking adorable when he's angry/jealous, so sometimes they may or may not try on purpose to make him jealous
I should probably stop here, but I hope this was a good enough birthday gift!! 💙💙💙

winx rewrite: what are the personal challenges that the characters overcome to earn enchantix?
Okay so some of the Enchantix Challenges tie into the larger plot as a whole, but others are more personal sideplots.
So!
Bloom:
Hers plays into the main plot, as we have fuckery with Valtor. Even though he's much different than Canon. But anyway!
Bloom feels very out of place. She always has. She didn't belong on Earth. She thought she was belonging in Magix as a whole, but she's part of a Realm that was nearly destroyed. In Season 3 she meets with and tries to connect to the remaining survivors from Domino, but she still feels out of place because it's a place she never knew or got a chance to grow up in.
This isn't helped by the more major plot point, which involves Valtor preying on these insecurities to manipulate her(after all, even if they manage to revive the Planet itself, how can she rule a kingdom where she barely knows the culture?)
Her overcoming this is her realizing that she doesn't need one singular 'place' to belong to, and it would be impossible to do so because everyone she loves are from completely different places.
Stella:
Hers also plays into the bigger plots because of her father's attempts at his second marriage to Countess Cassandra, and the rivalry with Chimera. Cassandra is still evil and just seducing Radius for power, even using mind magic. Chimera knows about at least the first part, but she's not part of it.
Though Stella's main issue is in how she handles problems and stress: by ignoring them. She makes jokes, she pretends everything's fine and goes shopping instead. She plays the ditzy princess. Nothing bothers her, does it? Not her parents divorce(and how she feels like it was her fault for not keeping them together(it's not but she tried to mediate them through her childhood and they divorced once she left for Alfea)). Not the pressures of being Solaria's Princess and eventually it's Queen and, by their rules, having to master both Faerie and Witch forms. Not any of the horrific near-death experiences the past two years! Not how hard she's learned and practiced her Magic to make it look so effortless and like she's just a moron with talent instead of someone smart! Nope nope nope everything's fine here!
This comes up because of Chimera. Who has been dropped in age slightly, and is the height of the 'I'm not like other girls' phase. So even without Stella ignoring her problems, she would see her as some 'dumbass bitchy bimbo'. So with the marriage, they're not getting along as step sisters.
There's eventually a bit of a heart-to-heart when Chimera is trying to practice for when Cassandra makes her heir to the throne instead. And while she can get her Faerie Form going fine, Witch is difficult. Stella at least tries to be a good older sister and give pointers, which has Chimera snap at her because 'she doesn't need help from some moron riding on talent'. And Stella snaps back for a moment, confessing how much she actually did have to practice as a child. And it turns into a slight ramble about some of the above issues. Which does lean into a more genuine talk about the pressures they're both under.
And Stella is like "Hey. Wait. Venting about my stress and having someone relate and be helpful actually fucking helped? The fuck?" and overall learns that yeah she should. She should let those who care about her know when she's struggling and talk with them and let others help her.
Musa:
Her issues are very similar to Stella's in the 'running away from problems' thing. But it's more specific because I moved her mother's death to be more recent. Just before Season 1 when she left for Alfea.
Musa has been running away from her grief and just not dealing with it. To the point that she hasn't been home at all. She talks to her dad on the phone of course and sees him occasionally, but she's either at Alfea or during school breaks she ended up traveling/crashing with her friends.
But eventually, homesick outweighs the need to run away. So she returns. And has to confront everything she ran from.
Now, grief is a process. She's not going to get over it and make peace in just a day. But choosing to start that process, deciding to quit fearing a world where she's used to not having her mother, does kick in the Enchantix.
Tecna:
Tecna's issue evolves around expressing emotion. Not in that she can't, but in that everyone has different emotional languages.
Her own personality and her homeworld's culture have Tecna as very blunt, stating how she feels about a situation instead of letting her body language alone say so. Which means that if someone else says they're fine despite tone and body language clearly indicating otherwise, she takes it at face value. Why say you're fine when you're not?
The past few years she's been navigating pretty well, barring a few incidents. But it really comes to a head because of her relationship with Timmy and how their love languages are very different.
Tecna's love language is, again, to blatantly say 'I love you' as often as she thinks to. Timmy, on the other hand is more of a 'gifts and acts of service' type, where he will spontaneously buy things he thinks will make her happy or offer to help her on a project. Of course, the issue is that when your love language is something, it's also how you perceive others' love. So from Tecna's pov, Timmy doesn't say that he loves her as often as she'd like because he rarely says it directly. On the flipside, Timmy hears the words often, but it begins to feel like an automated response rather than genuine because it's not accompanied by 'I saw this and thought of you/would you like me to help you' actions.
They don't have a fight exactly. But they do sit down and discuss this. Tecna admits that she does have this problem with everyone, but this is the first time she's really put in the effort to learn someone else's love language to genuinely understand them rather than just guess and work it out later if she misunderstood in the moment
Which leads to a bigger conversation with the group as a whole about putting in as much effort to both understand what they mean, and to make sure she is understood. The others agree to do the same.
Aisha:
One of Aisha's biggest fears is loneliness. She just made this big friend group but..... with the other plots taking them all over the place, and with most of them focusing on the idea of their own careers, it's hard not to think about how they might drift apart.
While she can't change the fact that they might not all stick together and see each other anywhere near as often, she can confront those fears and voice them to the group. Being met with reassurances that even when they're knee-deep in their own lives, they're still friends and can drop in on each other for company anytime.
Flora:
Flora feels kind of.. Like she’s the weakest of the Winx. Obviously she isn’t weak but… Bloom has the Dragon Flame. Stella is one of the few Magixae pursuing both Faerie and Witch. Aisha and Musa’s powers are very flashy and able to adapt to most scenarios. If Techna does lack in the Magic department, she makes up in the Strategy Department. 
One reason Flora has felt weaker is because she is at a bit of a disadvantage when fighting people like Icy. To use Pokemon terms, Ice is super effective against Grass. And as Icy was a major player on the antagonist side, she was taken out somewhat easily.
It’s something she voices later in the Season when they go to Dyamond, a planet that is very covered in ice and snow and all that. She feels like she won’t be helpful if they run into trouble. 
But when they do run into trouble? Oh boy. Ice might be effective against Grass, but every Spring the grass breaks through the snow doesn’t it? She gets to go feral at some point and is actually very good, despite the disadvantage. 
She realizes that she’s not as weak as she thought, and that even if she was, it shouldn’t stop her from trying to do what is right, earning her Enchantix.

Things I love about Kiseki: Dear to Me
In no particular order.
I love Chen Yi's room and Zong Yi's apartment. Both spaces reflect the characters perfectly. Every time I see Chen Yi in his bedroom, I am reminded that this guy is so much more vulnerable than he lets on and that at the heart of it, he is just a very young man wanting to prove himself. I've seen bedrooms like this. I look at his room and I know what it would smell like, you know. Every time I see Bai Zong Yi in his apartment, I see the headstrong teenager who works hard to keep his life on track and to escape poverty. Every item has its place and he takes great care of his things. I also see his independence, that comes with loneliness: a single towel hanging by the bathroom curtain.
I love the height difference between Zong Yi and Ze Rui. This is very important to me! Zong Yo being taller is a great visual counter balance to Ze Rui being older, more experienced and rich. I cannot stress enough how much I love it (and I've never cared about height differences before).
I love that both Ze Rui and Zong Yi feel bad about Zhang Teng's death. I love that Zhan Teng's death changes these characters, that he wasn't just an antagonist that could be killed off easily.
I love all the characters! This is really the main strong point of Kiseki. The plot is flawed and the execution is not always great but the characterizations are so good that it doesn't matter. And this isn't just true for the K4 but extends to supporting roles as well: Zong Yi's dad struggling to accept his son's relationship with Ze Rui but ultimately being a great father-in-law. Also that dinner scene after Zong Yi's been released from prison breaks my heart every time I watch it ; Zhan Teng feeling betrayed by Ze Rui and jealous of Zong Yi (Ze Rui showed Zhan Teng the tiniest amount of affection and you cannot tell me that this didn't mean the world to Zhan Teng.) Zhan Teng also has a past and a sister he loves and protects at all costs. Also, Chen Dong Yang (I very much dislike this man but at the same time deeply respect him.) And let's not forget the classmate with his stuffed animal, my favorite character xD The characterization is so rich in this show. We get it with everything: the dialogue (which includes single words or lines thrown into a conversation and short exchanges), the settings, the character's outfits and bodies (Chen Yi's tattoo, Ai Di's scars after his prison time), the character's mannerisms and then of course the choices they make throughout the show etc.
I love the acting. This is directly connected to my previous point. The characters just feel so real and so does the world they live in. I will forever love Louis Chiang for bringing Ai Di to life.
I love that the writers basically snuck a teacher/student romance into their mafia show (lbr they knew exactly what they were doing).
I love how Chen Yi one day just decided to pick Ai Di up and carry him wherever he wanted him to be and that from then on, he continued using this strategy. "Do more of what works and leave what doesn't work behind" is like basic counseling advice for how to deal with difficulties, so I approve. /j
I love that Zong Yi opens a bakery that exclusively sells strawberry flavored desserts sometimes (or all the time. He says he also sells other cakes but I have not seen any evidence supporting this claim.)
I love the intro.
I love how they incorporated the time jump. I'm generally not a fan of time jumps and I believe they are hard to pull off, but Kiseki does it pretty well. It could have ruined the show but didn't (thank god).
I love the experience of watching Kiseki because it just keeps getting better and better (even if, objectively, the last few episodes have their flaws). It's such an intense emotional experience for me. I get pulled into this world, slowly (or immediately lol) fall in love with the characters and then episode 8 just pushes the story to another level - like wow, I was not prepared for this the first time I watched it.
I say love, but I also hate some of these things because why do I have to suffer like this???

OKAY! sizeshifter thoughts,, this isn't really specific to any character at all BUT the reason i asked about jornos!tommy is because my thoughts apply pretty much directly to a sizeshifter who's primarily been one size for their whole life. so new shifters (whether that be thru magic or just genes)
idk how to summarize any of this....but i am thinking So Hard just about how chaotic it would be for someone to be burdened with newly-found shifting abilities. especially if it's emotion based.
when you newly know about something, you're going to do it a lot, sometimes subconsciously. like, if you learn to spin a pencil between your fingers, you're gonna do it a lot and not even notice!
so, imagine, like for a human, them sitting in class or at work or something and they're fidgeting with something, and it suddenly shrinks in their hand. and like imagine that was important,,, like their phone!!! and then they try super hard to channel energy to grow it back to normal that it's overall useless and it ends up being tiny for the rest of the day because of how stressed the human is.
yeah, sorry mom, i shrunk my phone and couldn't answer your call!
like ???? JFJSVD
orr a borrower has just came back from a borrowing spree, their first in a while, and is munching on a cracker, just in pure bliss at food, and suddenly the thing just grows. infinite food glitch, and new superpowers acquired?!
ORRR OR OR imagine a giant is yelling at the t in their hands, and the energy from how overwhelmed and scared the t is kinda subconsciously makes it's way into g's brain and it makes the t shrink??? IMAGINE HOW SCARY THAT IS FOR THE TINY???? super scared of this giant being and suddenly the being gets even BIGGER. idek if that makes sense but UGHHH it's rotating in my mind !!!!!
just super uncontrolled sizeshifting but for objects. i love it. adore it. eating it. YUM.
and then there's also the part of uncontrolled sizeshifting for their own person,, which is a lot more talked about, but the scenarios in which uncontrolled sizeshifting can happen is SOO COOL!!! imagine it's emotion based, but it can be regulated, but the person isn't good at it yet, cause it's a new skill! you can't ride a bike immediately, so why could you become a sizeshifter immediately? hmm???
hugging someone, and their brain is reminded that they have powers and they suddenly shrink. cutting veggies and their hand slips and suddenly they're five feet taller because their body wanted any kind of cut to be less severe. carrying groceries and they shrink and shit goes everywhere. getting jumpscared and suddenly POOF they're falling twenty feet. signing off a letter and they accidentally shrink a little bit and the pen just loses control and messes the whole letter up!!!! chopping a branch off with an axe and accidentally growing and the pressure of the swing chops the whole ass tree down!! MSHDHVSDVJ good stuff.
OH OH OH and someone who's kinda been experimenting with size difference and has embraced it, and they want to put their shoes on or get into a piece of clothing they like but they can't remember what their original height was so they have to fiddle around with it and end up wasting five minutes getting it just right—cause we know it looks right but it could totally be better
sorry this is long as HELL but i really love sizeshifters now..... :')
— brick
Brick I've said it before but I'll say it again: I would like to take a bite out of your brain and absorb the knowledge and ideas in it please because YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH THESE ARE ALL SO GOOD AND I LOVE THEM!!! Def getting idea's for jornos right now!!! The thing on shoes is making my brain go brrr for a scene idea that I might execute :3
But but but but juts yesssssssss! I love the uncontrolled shifting too! I mean it's something I'm going to keep exploring with jornos so def gonna yoink some of these ideas for future writing (if that's okay of course)
And the shrunken phone thing is too good!!!!!! I love the idea of that and just how inconvenient it would be but also amazing to think that even that small it would still work! The shifter trying to unshrink it and being unsuccessful would have to shrink down to use it. But this also means the phone would be like the size of tictak!!! IT WOULD BE SO TINY!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE I LOVE I LOVE I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
THANK YOU BRICK FOR YOUR RAMBLE!!! COME RAMBLE MORE AT ANY TIME!!!

Oh, hell yeahhh! I'm the anon who sent the ask about the modern girl trope, and I loved reading your thoughts :) But I had different ideas involving the reader! One idea I had was keeping her human but immortal....through some alternate universal logic I can come up with LOL. But trust, I'd want her humanity intact because there'd be a lot more dynamics between the old elven world and a modern human being. Another was a specific idea where I'd start my story. I was thinking of maybe at the very beginning of the story when Melian and Thingol first met in the forest (can't remember the details because it's been a hot min since I read the book)??? I was thinking that the reader wakes up in that forest after being isekaid into SILM. but they first think it's all a dream until, well yeah, the realization sets in like a big "WTF" moment. Is she tweaking hard right now or are there two gigantic (I'm assuming there'd be an insane height difference as the reader is a human) beings who look otherworldly gawking at her like she's completely alien???
The hardest part right now is tackling the multiple characters and the entirety of Tolkien's legendarium...it's a difficult goal to implement when you want to consider staying somewhat canonical and within ME logic. How would specific characters react to the reader? How would their relationship progress as the story goes on? How do I even give justice to a character; am I portraying them right? How will the readers existence affect the plot and the events--because that's a big part of SILM. You know...the wars and stuff.
Speaking of which, with the readers modern perspective and outlook on life, I think it'd make up for a pretty funny journey for not just the reader, but for everyone else involved. I can just imagine the reader trying to get used to the culture shock, as daunting as it is, and learn to accept the change of scenery. But sometimes she'd be faced with trials and tribulations, it's hard to keep calm sometimes. I can just imagine if there is ever a certain point where if the reader meets an unhinged character like Faenor, she'll definitely butt heads with them. Perhaps her personal moral and ethical compass is seen as........foreign. It would get heated, I'm sure, with all the "outdated" politics and standards within SILM. that the reader will be in for a ride!
BTW, do you think adding romance would do? I think about adding some romantic relationships between the reader and some characters, but I'm not sure how I'd pull it off...hmm...who'd even be a good candidate LOL??
Also, I wanted to come up with a reader who's probably an overworked desk worker, so her attitude at first would be: "I don't care, I'm not getting paid to fix anyone's problems," while simultaneously trying to make it alive for the next day.
Sorry I took so long, I've been busy running around the place 😖. But I'm liking these ideas 😯😯. They're intriguing!!
Given that you want to stay on par with the canon of the story, you can have moments where reader makes suggestions, however as mentioned, due to their morals and ethics being outdated and modernised compared to traditional ways, the character can have a moment of awareness but eventually return to their original plan. This only makes reader's relationship strained with the character.
You can also contribute to some of the discarded drafts Tolkien wrote for characters or fill in the plot holes for unspoken events by the loremasters. Like certain events that took place was believed to occur a particular way, however, you being there and having witnessed it can attest and say otherwise. Then observing that eavesdropping and miscommunication led to feuds between the groups of elves and so forth. Maybe have a moment where you break the truth to one of the main characters (preferably for an event that doesn't pertain to them, but showing how themes of hate and spite can lead to unnecessary consequences).
As for adding romance, that's solely your decision, but I can provide options to choose from if you're stuck in a dilemma.
You can have reader and character's relationship purely romantic.
A flirtatious relationship where both are aware of their feelings, unfortunately due to their future ahead, they wish for nothing intensely romantic. Sorta like a fling.
Mutual pinning which makes this more tragic.
Unrequited love
Purely friendship because there isn't anything wrong with being friends. Friendship tend to have some of the most heartbreaking emotions and moments.
Picking a character is something you could spin the wheel and select. because at the end of the day, they'll all be dead 🙈. The office worker vibes you want to include would bring so much humour, I'm here for it. Insert the, "don't speak to me until my shift begins" or the, "I'm here to work, not solve your problems unless you pay me overtime". 🤲
There's lots of themes being included, history, traditions, personalities and perspectives, differences, and the original silm lore to remember. The real question is, how in depth are you going with the lore and plot since the 1st Age had multiple events and you wish to begin from Melian meeting Thingol?
Like are you planning on skipping through big chunks of the years and focusing around the important events and the years before, during and after? I think this would save you the stress of focusing on every detail and you still get to mention history in the chapters.

I heard a while ago when I was baby army (I don't agree but I wasn't in a good mental place when I first heard it so....) that all Jungkook biases are the most gorgeous of them all and I was like "oh I can't be a jungkook bias 😔" and tried to move on with my life and now that I'm getting to a better mental spot it's like Jungkook who was hidden in my heart the whole time is peaking his head out and going "oh so we're finally admitting I've always lived here"
are you telling me that you stopped calling jeongguk your bias because of who stan he? i think i'm not the best person for you to sende this ask, because i feel like i cant not be honest with my thoughts and i can be too harsh. because for me i just cant accept when someone stops being who they want to be or stop liking what they like because of other people. have you ever stopped to think how you would survive if you always thought of other people first? you can never act like that. i can promise you that in bangtan and also as jeongguk biased we have all kinds of people. and this is one of the most amazing things about armys. we are from different countries, we speak different languages, we have different beauty, different music tastes, different fashion tastes, different weights and heights, so many different things that is one of the most amazing things we have in our fandom. its amazing that people different in every way loves bangtan. I can guarantee you that nothing makes you less stan than jeongguk because you think you're not as beautiful as the others. what is this beauty that you talk about so much? the beauty that you compare with that of others? but the truth is that we can NEVER compare anything about ourselves, much less our appearance with others people. thats one of the main reasons why you are like that. you need to stop compare yourself into others because theres no reason for you to do that. the other person is different and their beauty is different. you need to find your beauty, start finding your beauty, go to the mirror and instead of looking at what you dont like, start looking at what you like and start focusing on that. its not because someone is very beautiful in your opinion makes you ugly. beauty is something relative and different. what is beautiful in my country may not be in yours. what is beautiful for me may not be for you.
please never stop being you or liking something because of someone else. stop focusing on other people and focus on yourself. I know how hard its going to be but you have to do this. you cant put yourself in that place, you need to be the main character in your life and not the extra. because when you focus too much on others, you become an extra in your own life, in your own story and that cannot happen.
but I'm really glad you're already getting better about it. please, keep focusing on your mental health, ok? not for jeongguk or someone else, but for you. I'm sure your future self will be very grateful that you're focusing on improving your mental health. focus on loving yourself and starting to admire your beauty that i'm sure you have 🥺you just couldnt see it because of where you were mentally. please take care of yourself and dont be so hard on yourself. the world is already so hard so please treat yourself with kindness. i hope you have a great weekend ♡

Wowie zowie, I'm actually using this!
I used to only come on here for Freaktale stuff, but since the aus dead and I've had traumatic experiences with the undertale community I've decided to put the old blog on archive and use this one for my original project!
"The Shark Dynasty"
It is called!
Here's some cover art...
Tumblr media
Here's what I got so far
What is the shark dynasty you ask?
The Shark Dynasty is an original project of mine featuring my ocs. This series will focus on my OC Sky's 8 kids visiting him in the rural parts of Ontario for the summer. Something isn’t right with Sky’s property, and throughout the series it’s learned that sky’s land is corrupted by a mysterious dark magic, this magic creates a rips between dimensions as well as earth's timeline, featuring creatures from the past, present and future, while also being a host to supernatural beings.
It is revealed slowly that the kid's father is behind all of these actions.
That's basically what I got so far! I also have two short comics featuring 4 of the characters!
First one featuring Gillian and Ira (I'll introduce them below)
Gillian has a bunch of pet bugs, one of her Feeder roaches got loose into Ira's room
Tumblr media
Good stuff yes.
And the second one features twins Alyssa and Katey!
Alyssa listens to music, helps keep her calm, sometimes though she can get a bit intense while listening to her music, especially if brain power plays! Much to Katey's dismay.
Tumblr media
I should probably introduce the kids
Tumblr media
I I shared this one already, but I updated the Heights of the youngest three!
In case you missed, from left to right
Wolfgang
Wolfgang is the oldest son of sky as well as the oldest of sky's kids. He's shy and mostly keeps to himself due to trust issues and being stuck in his life, unsure of what to do. He's very passionate about prehistoric life and loves talking about it when he feels open to someone he trusts. Wolfgang is troubled by his past of bullying and having parents who never truly understood him or his needs. Wolfgang is asexual.
Ira
Irais the oldest daughter of sky, she is the 2nd oldest of sky's kids. She's laid back and easy to vibe with, she enjoys spending time with family and friends. She's very passionate about different types of Comic, Manga and animation. She feels regret because she never paid much attention to her family as a kid and what they had to deal with growing up, despite being part of the same house.
Amar
Amar is the second oldest son of sky, he is the 3rd oldest child. Amar is described as an enthusiastic, energetic individual. However he feels depressed and keeps it hidden well, he feels he has no purpose in the world due to bullying. His interest is gaming, He loves any type of game.
Alyssa and Katey
Alyssa and Katey are the middle daughters of sky, they are conjoined twins. Alyssa is Energetic and kind hearted, she's distracted easily. Katey is calm and observant, she usually observes people closely. The twins trust each other deeply as they've experienced everything together, Katey is usually the voice of reason, but sometimes Alyssa might disagree, they often have short clashes with each other, but these never result in arguments unless under stress. They both go through depression due to their condition and how people have treated them because of it.
Marius
Marius is the second youngest son of sky, he is transgender male who never agreed with the gender he was born with. Marius is energetic and quirky while also being quit if he feels uncomfortable.
Marius struggles to make friends, he has a hard time distinguishing good and bad people. However, if Marius feels close with someone he is the complete opposite, friendly, funny and smart.
Marius Enjoys Crystals and is very spiritual, he's a sucker for astrology.
Gillian
She second youngest child of sky Akula.
She is a transgender female who is uncomfortable with her body and doesn't believe it ever fit her.
Gillian is very passionate about learning new things and would rather solve her problems in a civil way. Because of this, she isn't the best fighter of Sky's kids, but this doesn't mean she isn't capable of it.
Gillian is very desensitized towards her current situation. She often sees the best in people and had a harder time picking up on red flags.
Despite Gillian being knowledgeable in things like science, she is very spiritual and believes that a lot of unexplainable events should remain unexplained. She also enjoys the micro world!
Finn
Finn Is the Youngest Son and Youngest Child Of Sky.
He's described as a typical boy, loves games and enjoys the funny stuff in life.
Finn is very cocky and often gets into situations that can be described as chaotic. Often charging into battle head first rather than observing first.
Despite this he's got a good heart deep down,
Now for their cousins.
These 4 are more like side characters, they have backstory, just haven't really thought of it yet 🤔
Tumblr media
From left to right we got
Rory
They're pretty chill, they enjoy the casual stuff in life, but they also experience crazy adrenaline rushes and is often seen doing some more intense things.
They never truly agreed with the gender they were born, they identified as non binary.
Everest
Everest is often described as shy and reserved, however, when she's with her sister Ivany she's the life of the party, she feels closest to her sister and trust her the most
Ivany
Ivany is described as sweet caring and a bit on the timid side, she's pretty close with her sister as they share a bound after Everest opened up to Ivany about bullying she had experienced.
Alexander
Alexander is an average kid, he enjoys playing games and sports, he's got a decent group of friends he hangs out with.
Oh also one more thing about Ivany and Everest
Tumblr media
prepare for some weird shit
Ivany and Everest can merge together like Alyssa and Katey while also being able to separate, what? You thought these kids were humans? Nah nah nah, they are something else, though it'll take some time to explain.
Now why is this weird? Well I'm not sure if I mentioned this or not, but sky conjoined Alyssa and Katey while they were developing, he did the same with Ivany and Everest, though it wasn't successful as they can separate anytime unlike Sky's Twins
The reason Sky did this is because he himself had absorbed his twin when he was created, and he wants to see how others would live out what he could have experienced...
Yeah sky's messed up, at least the twins are okay with the idea, well they are now, when they found out you can imagine how devastated they were when they found out first.
Speaking of Sky
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here's him next to his wife Adhira, and his beast form with and without wings! (Used a reference for them)
Adhira is Energetic, caring and sweet, though she can get defensive if provoked, she is very protective of each of her kids especially!
And now other side characters.
Tumblr media
We got
Terry the troodontid, what species? Anyone's guess.
He's an ally of sky's kids as well as sky Himself, he's also an old OC of mine! Used to be a Jurassic park troodon
Edwin aka Legion is a mysterious figure that is sent by sky to keep an eye out on sky's kids.
Ivy Is A Plant Princess, she's laid back and would rather be a normal civilian.
And Richard... he's just Richard, that's all.
Tumblr media
And here's death, aka the grim reaper (I used a reference for this one as well, you'll notice I use references for a lot of dinosaur drawings, I wanna practice with em better) one of the kids gets all sad and starts thinking about a permanent solution to a temporary problem, so he appears and sacres the kid into rethinking that.
That's all I got for now, I'll try to keep this updated.

hey, it's me again! (if you can't tell, i'm really trying to make a friend) but this time, i'm not here to ask about headcanons (though if you have some c!dreamteam ones, that would be wonderful)-
how are you doing? how is the weather like where you are? what are you listening to right now?
It's all good! I am not great at keeping in contact with people tho so like... Fair warning.
Because I know this'll take a while to fully type up, you'll get two audio checks! The first one is Monster from Adventure Time.
I have been going through it tbqh. Emotional roller coaster and low physical social energy and wanting a new job closer to home and maybe in the afternoon or evening etc. but things are also looking like they’re going to be better soon!
Weather’s finally getting nice again! Cannot wait until we’re regularly having highs of 75 F (like 24 C or so) or lower! I thrive most in cool to cold temperatures, after all!
And headcanons because you still did kinda ask for them and I love sharing them! Obviously this is purely the characters, just putting pretext because I don’t want to write “c(name)” too many times so I just… won’t.
Dream is in interesting case for me species-wise because it depends on the rest of the context but I most commonly default on either slime or dragon hybrid. He/him and it/its pronouns. Usually I think of him as similar to Flowey from Undertale, or some other list of reasons as to why his actions are a teeny bit more justified. (Granted I also don’t make him as awful as he is in canon usually. Or if he is in a different way) Has a crush on George and later Punz.
George is forever and always a mushroom fae to me, either partially or fully. He/him. I don’t really do the heterochromia thing often. First started sleeping as an escape. A way to pretend nothing’s changed or they’ve changed for the better. Eventually gets a thing for the god who’s giving him more interesting outcomes in his dreams (DreamXD, or Ex’Dee as I like to write the character’s name). One of the few who are of an average height by real world standards, but as such is a bit short in the SMP.
Sapnap is either a blaze hybrid or a flame demon hybrid. Short tempered but possibly the most loving of the trio. And definitely the most emotionally expressive of them. My man’s falling in love too easily with every guy he ends up finding attractive and funny. Unfortunately he’s also the most mortal of the trio, and yet the most insistent on fighting and doing dangerous things. It gets hard to not compare him to others because he’s rarely mot seen with others, whether it be his longtime friends, his dad(s), or his fiancés.
Aaaand second audio check since I’ve typed what I can think of atm and answered questions: At Sister Location by Chi-Chi

Thumbprint Tag
Thank you for the tag @cillmequick! ❤️
RULES: Look back on your work, both past and present, finished and unfinished. What are five to ten narrative elements or tropes that continuously pop up in your work? Give a list of these things!
Tagging: @moral-terpitude, @shelbydelrey, @eclecticwildflowers, @scaryscarecrows, @call-sign-shark, @runnning-outof-time, @peakyltd, @confidentandgood, @everythingelseisextra, and anyone else who wants to do this! Sorry for any duplicate tags!
Healthy relationships: Even when both characters are undeniably horrible people, I can't help but make them soft, tender, and just incredibly good for one another.
Height differences: I love me a good height difference, okay? It's why most of my OCs are so damn short/tiny. It's the only way I can get a significant height difference between them and Cillian's characters.
Canon compliant: Outside of the very occasional AU, I like to keep my stories for each fandom all in one continuity and as close to canon as possible.
Tragic backstories/trauma: Almost all of my OCs have had some sort of backstory or trauma that strongly defines their arc and characterization.
Angst/comfort: Listen, I love writing angst, but I also love writing comfort and, as forementioned, I love writing characters in healthy relationships that work together to fix their problems and make sure each other are okay. It's really hard for me to introduce an angsty scenario and then just leave it hanging or give the characters an unhappy ending.
Established relationship: I don't know why, but I love writing characters who have been together for a long time and just have the vibe of an old married couple who can speak to each other through just glances alone.
The couple is constantly horny for each other: I've made it a point to ensure each of my pairings get at least one detailed smut scene together. And they are constantly making little passes at and flirting with one another (Lucy and Tommy are easily the worst about this though).
Happy endings: Of both the narrative and smutty variety. 😉 In all seriousness though, this is often the one place where I will throw canon compliance out the window, or at least very strongly bend it if I need to. My babies are getting their happy ending riding off into the sunset together, goddammit.
Dating a co-worker: Looking back at my works, and yeah, this trope shows up a lot. Vanessa and Jonathan are both psychiatrists at Arkham, Alice is Robert's assistant at Fischer Morrow, Lucy is Tommy's personal assistant, and Rose and Raymond are both timekeepers. It gives me more opportunities to write them in scenes together, and sometimes adds a layer of understanding of the other's worlds that the characters might not otherwise have.
Snuggling/cuddling: Maybe it's because I'm touch starved but I just can never pass up the opportunity to have my characters hold or cuddle up to one another. There's a lot of physical affection in general in my work.

deep dive character sheet
stolen from: reeathan tagging: breathes down ur neck
NAME: ROSADO
BODY
height: 5'7" / 170cm
strength ★★★☆☆ (damagingly below average str and bld bases for his class but high str growth makes for a whack situation narratively)
dexterity ★★★★☆ (can't be butterfingers designing ur own fit)
health ★★★★★ (canonically kind of ridiculous. shining hair, shining skin, never gains weight, eats and sleeps however he wants. life just isn't fair huh)
energy ★★★★☆ (lively naturally while also being prone to an indulgent kind of laziness. the vibe of energetically deciding to spend the day napping)
beauty ★★★★★ (tfw the resident dancer stalks you for your beauty regimen)
style ★★★★★ (whether it's to everyone's tastes or not is different, but he certainly makes statements wherever he goes)
hygiene ★★★☆☆ (a weird situation because he canonically does very little actual styling / upkeep. he actually just wakes up like that)
SKILLS
perception ★★★★☆ (surprisingly)
communication ★★★☆☆ (a bit broad to ascribe a ranking. he's fantastic at natural charisma and conversation. a whiff of conflict though and he'd sooner ghost)
persuasion ★★★★★ (incredibly charming naturally. has a way of kind of being charming about it even when he's being dogmatic or manipulative that still makes it hard to say no)
mediation ★★☆☆☆ (would much rather try to console separate parties after the fact. doesn't want to be in the middle of a disagreement)
literacy ★★☆☆☆ (rosado: when's the paper due. someone: it's on the syllabus. rosado: yeah but i don't want to read, i want you to tell me)
creativity ★★★☆☆ (again kinda depends in what sense but eh)
cooking ★★★☆☆ (it's not something he does, but he'd be decent if he put in the effort to learn. perfectly passable.)
tech savvy ★★★★★ (you can't tell me he wouldn't be a tiktok celebrity in modern au)
combat ★★★☆☆ (it's fine. he's canonically a pretty good fighter per ike bond conversation, but given his dislike of it i can't see him ever be better than ' good enough to do his job ')
survival ★★★☆☆ (honestly he knows when he's in over his head and needs to get tf outta dodge and that's like 60% of surviving)
stealth ★★☆☆☆ (i mean have u seen him)
street smarts ★★★☆☆ (another weird one because his haggling and ' knowing which hole in the wall shop has the best merch and the best deals ' is second to none but that's probably that only type of street smarts where he knows anything)
seduction ★★★★☆ (all i'm saying is he's descended from a race of faefolk who are known for ensnaring hapless highborn humans throughout history for a reason)
luck ★★★☆☆
handling animals ★★★☆☆ (he likes them more than he's good at handling them, generally speaking)
pacifying children ★★★☆☆ (eh. no better or worse than the next guy)
MIND
intelligence ★★★☆☆ (what... kind... hahaha. vastly different answers depending)
happiness ★★★★★ (optimism is his middle name)
spirituality ★☆☆☆☆ (... i mean... he sure thinks the divine dragon is neat!)
confidence ★★★★★ (a bit delusionally at times)
humor ★★★☆☆
anxiety ☆☆☆☆☆ (this guy wouldn't know social anxiety if it hit him in the face. doesn't generally tend to get hung up about stuff on the whole)
patience ★★☆☆☆ (physically speaking, average. will fall for a ' oooh what is it what is it? ' ' i'm not tellinggg ' bait every time tho)
passion ★★★★★ (it's his other middle name)
nice         ★☆☆☆☆ mean (most of the time genuine! most of the time)
brave       ☆☆★☆☆ cowardly (he wouldn't consider himself braver than his job demands, but also both his hortensia a and fell ending have him risking / giving his life for hortensia. and the whole stealth emblem ring steal was ballsy af)
pacifist     ★☆☆☆☆ violent
thoughtful ☆☆★☆☆ impulsive (again, depends about what)
agreeable ☆☆★☆☆ contrary (very agreeable and accommodating of others, until he's Not skjglskdl)
idealistic   ☆★☆☆☆ pragmatic (he's not reckless but that's about the only thing keeping him from a full 5)
frugal        ☆☆☆★☆ big spender (it's just a very good thing he wasn't born into high society)
extrovert   ☆★☆☆☆ introvert (prefers to be around others if there's an opportunity, but doesn't get restless being on his own)
collected   ☆☆☆★☆ wild (again, context. but generally being effusive and energetic tips it)
ambitious / possessive / stubborn / jealous / decisive / perfectionist
SOCIAL
charisma ★★★★★
empathy ★★★☆☆ (in a strange position of being compassionate and genuinely wanting to be / good at being there for others while also being more self-centered on the whole than not)
generosity ★★★☆☆ (sort of in the same vein as empathy)
wealth ★★★★☆ (i mean he's a royal retainer so. plenty of disposable income generally)
honest  ☆★☆☆☆ deceptive (ahahahaha..... a can of worms for rosado. honestly deceptive? unintentionally deceptive? master of ' the truth but not All Of It '? at the very least he doesn't usually intend to deceive)
leader   ☆☆☆★☆ follower (i think in the right scenarios he wouldn't make a bad leader because he does have a way of influencing and inspiring others. but he's too much of a free spirit / swayed by whatever or whoever he likes)
polite    ☆★☆☆☆  rude (kind of Much / presumptuous sometimes? but in a way where you can tell it doesn't come from a bad place)
political ☆☆☆☆★ indifferent (he could not be less bothered)
BELIEFS
higher power ★★☆☆☆ (the reason it's not a 0 or 1 is because he factually knows they exist thanks to the lake of mystery / dragons, etc. that's as far as it goes tho)
fate/destiny ★★☆☆☆ (it's fun to joke around about, but the real thing? never thought much about it)
magic ★★★★★ (it's fire emblem)
soulmates ★★☆☆☆ (same as fate/destiny)
good and evil ★★☆☆☆ (also similar to fate/destiny. thinks it can be a useful binary, but deep down recognizes that it's mostly just that: useful in certain situations)
luck ★★★★☆ (weirdly, given his ambivalence about the other above metaphysical things)
PRIORITIES
family ★★☆☆☆ (mostly shrug emoji because family is handled deliberately in a kind of alienating way in the village of the fair folk. stay tuned)
friends ★★★★★ (arguably one of the the most important things to rosado outside of staying true to himself)
love ★★★☆☆ (values connections to others but also naturally independent and unanchored)
home ★★☆☆☆ (like. it's nice! but it's cool, he can also bounce)
health ★★★☆☆ (not literally health so much as whatever he needs to do or maintain in order to stay cute and appealing)
praise ★★★★★ (oh my god)
justice ★★☆☆☆ (sure, that always sounds like something good)
truth ★★★☆☆ (complicated because he doesn't care/consider/pursue it actively as an ideal, but his approach to visual art seems to drain down at its heart to a desire to capture truth)
power ☆☆☆☆☆
fame ★★☆☆☆ (not an active pursuit, but wouldn't mind it if he stumbled into it along the way)
wealth ★☆☆☆☆ (same as fame, but less)
others' opinions ★☆☆☆☆ (has learned to ignore what most people think, except for those he really respects. currently only hortensia and to a lesser extent goldmary)

[meet the prisoners!] prisoner 008: maruyama yurika
Tumblr media
(edit: .. i forgot about her height. i'm sorry yurika i have to edit your profile AGAIN)
idk if anyone noticed, but i DID post her profile but then i quickly deleted it because i realized.. that i actually don't like her crime that much. idk, i really thought that the crime i originally planned for her was too weird and i thought that it would be "too much" compared to the other characters' murders.
thankfully, i already had other crime ideas for her (and all the other prisoners) so i didn't have to think too much about it and i actually like her new crime more, so i don't regret changing some stuff about her. but what i do regret is that i had to rewrite her mv because the original one had too many hints to her "old crime". i had to rewrite her whole profile actually.
General info:
Name: Maruyama Yurika (丸山優梨香) (her last name means "circle" and "mountain" and her first name means "kindness, gentleness", "pear" and "fragrance")
Age: 21 y/o
Gender: Female
Status: Prisoner 008
Birthday: October 10 (Libra)
Blood type: A
Height: 165 cm
Image color: #FF8484
Occupation: University student and a maid cafe worker
Personality: Yurika is a kind and polite young woman who loves helping others and who is always there to support them or cheer them up when they're feeling down. She tries really hard to hide the fact that she's actually a huge otaku, but she's not that good at it because she still keeps making references to her favorite manga/anime/games. Even though a lot of people tend to take advantage of her naivety and innocence, she's actually much scarier than she appears. When it comes to her crime, she tries to avoid the topic and she claims that she did it out of self-defense and that she's not lying. You can see the anger in her eyes when she talks about her crime though, so.. it's hard to say if she really regrets committing her crime. What she did after her crime is also a big mystery and the fact that she starts shaking whenever someone raises that topic and she keeps saying "I had to do it, I had to do it, I had to do it".. makes others worry about her a lot.
MV Info:
Which canon Milgram song she would cover: Umbilical. It fits her vibe and her personality a lot!
Which DECO*27 song she would cover: Poison Apple.
If she could cover a song by a different Vocaloid producer, which one would it be: Kyu-kurarin by Iyowa.
Her MV description:
The first half of her MV would have bright colors like pink, orange and yellow, but they wouldn't be as bright as Kei or Eiko's MV colors. Later those colors would change to darker shades of green and blue.
The first half of her MV would actually have that 90's anime art style and it would be very cute and colorful. We can see Yurika getting ready for work, she's smiling and singing something and we can also see that her room is full of anime/game merch and we can see post-it notes everywhere that say things like "You can do it!" or "Let's hope today will be better than yesterday!". She finally leaves the house and the MV takes place in a maid cafe now. We can see her talking to the customers, smiling, serving food and being the cute maid that she has to be. She's also friends with her coworkers too and she seems to be the most popular maid here. Everything is fine.. but also it feels like everything is too peaceful.
Some time passes and Yurika can go home now, but right as she leaves, the colors suddenly change and become much darker and the art style changes to the usual Milgram MV art style too. However, now the MV has this weird effect, like we're watching an old tape right now. Yurika has a bad feeling and she keeps looking around as she walks home. But then, suddenly, the POV changes and we can see Yurika running away.. from us. She trips and falls and everything goes black for a second, but then we can see her lying on the ground, her clothes is torn and her hair is a mess now. It looks like we're pointing at her and laughing, but if you look closer, you can notice two right hands pointing at her, it's almost like she was attacked by two people.
Then, we can see Yurika slowly getting up and looking right at us. She stands like that for a moment and then the MV gets more surreal: it doesn't look like we're watching a video, it's like we're just watching completely different scenes that are not connected in any way. The POV is also different depending on the scene: we can see her cutting someone's hair in one scene and we can see her beating someone with a pipe, but most of the time we see everything right through her victim(s)'s eyes. We keep watching her torture someone, but you can also notice that now she is actually wearing gloves in some scenes. The colors become even darker and it's almost impossible to see what's going on, but we still can see Yurika talking to someone standing next to her and then looking at us and the very last scene shows her fully covered in blood, talking to someone again and then smiling and doing a peace sign.
It turns out that we really were watching her do all of that and right when the TV turns off and we get up, Yurika walks closer to us, smiles and gives us a hug. The MV ends.
Trailer 1 Voicelines:
"Hello! My name is Maruyama Yurika! Hm? Y-you want to know what I do for a living? Uh.. Well, I'm still a university student, but also I work at a maid cafe! Yes, as a waitress. So don't be shy, you can always ask me for help, master~.. Ugh, I'm so tired of saying stuff like that."
"I HATE IT! I HATE EVERYTHING! I'M SO TIRED OF EVERYTHING, IT'S ALL SO TIRING AND OVERWHELMING AND STRESSFUL AND- W-wait, what are you two doing here?.."
Trivia:
She had two victims and murder wasn't her only crime. She also seems more worried about what she did after her crime and not the actual murder.
(Edited after posting her VD) She doesn't want to be voted guilty because of her huge fear of death and because she's tired of bad things happening to her all the time.
She's close with all the female prisoners (at least she thinks so), especially with Eiko and Prisoner 010. Her relationship with the male prisoners is.. not as good and she prefers to avoid them most of the time. If you ask her which male prisoner she likes the most, she will try to change the topic.
Yes, Kei tried to flirt with her, he already thought she was attractive and after he found out about her job, he became even more interested, but for some reason he got very scared and after that he completely stopped talking to Yurika. Whenever he has to talk to her, he tries to run away or he asks someone else to do it for him.
If Naomi is the "mother figure" for other prisoners, Yurika is like their "big sister figure", even though she's not the oldest prisoner and she's still younger than Kei, Shun and Eiko. Younger prisoners just trust her more than those three, even if some of them (like Akio or Asahi) try to deny it.
It's hard to describe Asahi and Yurika's theme with one word, but if I had to, it would most likely be "hunger" or "not feeling satisfied", to be more exact. I actually tried to assign deadly sins to all of my prisoner OCs and both Asahi and Yurika got a mix of Gluttony and Greed, but what makes this theme really interesting is that both of them are actually on the opposite ends of the spectrum: Asahi comes from a rich family and he was very spoiled, but he still wanted more even though he didn't even know what he wants, meanwhile Yurika struggled financially before arriving here and she regretted getting a job at a maid cafe, because she wasn't paid that well and she thought that the customers were annoying and that's why she obviously wasn't satisfied with her life. Her original MV also showed her killing someone while eating/drinking with them and Asahi's murder happened while he was eating dinner with someone (at least according to his MV). Also, interestingly, her new crime actually sounds more like "Greed" meanwhile Asahi's crime still sounds like a mix of Greed and Gluttony.
Yurika and Asahi's backstories are actually "reverse" versions of each other, and it's not just about Asahi being a rich kid and Yurika having problems with money. But they're also much more similar than you would think.

FIRSTLY i do not know how i hadn't seen your ao3 before now and i'm losing my MIND i'm about to read it all bc i just read casualty of you and now i'm SCREECHING secondly... the fic writer questions: 11, 4, 30, 49! x
FIRSTLY AWAHHHH THABK YOU SO SO MUCH!!!! i hope u enjoy <3333
secondly gonna stick these answers below the cut!!! just because i started rambling ehe
11- Are you partial to a certain character/pairing or are you more equal-opportunity? If you are partial to any character/pairing, why do you think that is?
oh absolutely pairing-wise it will always be sebmark for me… i think i am just entirely struck by the different phases of their relationship? 2009 is an entirely different vibe to 2013 who is an entirely different vibe to 2017 and that makes fic writing them sooo fun for me its never a chore to write sebmark. beyond this teammate rivalries are just absolutely compelling to me i think the dynamics and intricacies are so so interesting, especially gaining more insight on that from marks book was just eeeee i loved it (fuck u helmut marko for everything you ever do). personality wise too they both suit each other well in terms of rpf and they dynamics that i’ve always written and like writing.
character wise i love writing seb. i rlly hope i do him justice because i just love his voice and his humour and his mannerisms. he’s my love ever and i love him so any pairings with him in i am always heart eyes over.
4 - What detail in [insert fic] are you really proud of?
i’m gonna take this as any fic i’ve written so! i think anything in good men die too verse i am hugely proud of. i did a bit of research for crush about street racing (a lack of in thoroughfare which i often get annoyed about but oh well) and so i think i got the car types right. either way it sounds professional so shrug!
an unreleased fic i have a bit of detail on is my siren!seb fic, its entirely unfinished but i did some research about mythology surrounding mermaids and sirens and think it’s pretty good in that!!!
30 - Have you ever written something that was out of your comfort zone? If so, what was it, and how did it affect your approach to writing fic thereafter?
oh boy most of my ot3 fest fics (i have three fulfilled hopefully! haha 3) were quite a new experience. i won’t spoil a ton but writing threesomes is hard man. lots of limbs
49 - What are you currently working on? Share a few lines if you’re up for it!
ehehehe. its a another fucking sebmark au! heir to father’s business seb nearly gets assassinated and his driver mark (annoying, gets in the way, keeps making fun of him) saves his life and thus is made his bodyguard in order to protect him. he hates mark already but this really pisses seb off, a constant shadow. also it’s called bad for business yes like the sabrina carpenter song
it’s going to be my first multi chapter and i’m anxious as balls about it and i really kind of hate the tone at the minute so it needs reworking. first chap is basically done but want three written before i post anything just for my own sanity. but here’s a little snippet of them winding each other up
+
Why has Britta put the medicine on the top shelf, for fuck’s sake, she knows he’s not that tall. He gets on his tiptoes, but the box is pushed further back by the tips of his fingers, rather than grabbing it.
“Let me, Mr Vettel.”
And then, the lean body of Sebastian’s driver against the back of him, reaching up to the shelf with zero effort. His fingers dash against Sebastian’s, and it’s a much more successful retrieval, bringing down the box of pills to his height.
Sebastian turns, putting his back to the countertop, the bare skin under his hoodie just brushing the cool marble. He’s close enough that he can smell Webber’s cologne - sharp. Masculine. Like the rest of him, ever predictable.
Webber takes a short step back, probably assessing how abnormally close they were. He puts the box into Sebastian’s open palm. The pills shake inside upon impact. He’s pleased, but through gritted teeth, like a dog finally being allowed a treat.
“Thank you.”
“No problem.”
+
so yeah!!!! i rlly hope i do finish it and get it out because the idea has been brewing for months.
thank u so much for all the questions and ofc the love for casualty of you <33

I like how you self-identify as a filthy multi-shipper... because so am I. What are some of your ships? (Feel free to give as comprehensive an answer as you'd like.)
I'm gonna guess this is for tkk/CK. (If I went into my ships from other fandoms this would be a book. )
Hmmm. So. When I joined the fandom upon the release of S3, I was drawn in specifically by lawrusso. I had just started petering out of the IT fandom and they reminded a fair amount of Reddie. The angst with the possibility of slow burn with a happy ending got me.
But at the time there were some very good silverusso fanfics that I had read out of curiosity.
Once I watched the movies (after I watched seasons 1-3) I gained like 38366262 ships because Daniel is my fandom bicycle and I want everyone to get a ride.
I can and have shipped him with most tkk/CK characters because I find each ship to offer something interesting.
I started out a lawrusso stan. I still ship them. It's a ship with good bones. Unfortunately some negative sides of fandom (Daniel haters) ruined it for me for a while. But they're still one of my main ships and I have 2 wips for them currently. My favorite flavor of them is angry teen lawrusso.
My relationship with the ship changed a lot between the before and after of watching the original trilogy.
Obviously, I'm silverusso trash. Everything about them fascinates me. Plus it's highly aesthetic and lends well to a large number of my kinks. I also prefer them on the angsty side (I mean, it is canon. Plus the toxicity of messed up ships is like. The explicit appeal. ) but have been known to indulge in some fluff au's. It's the ship I've written the most for and get asked about the most. It's full of delicious horror romance tropes tbh. Or, if you want. You can go full angst and whump Daniel hard.
I also really ship danzen, even though I should write more for them and finish my wips of them. Chozen has one of the most interesting character arcs of any of the "karate rivals." It's a true enemies to lovers ship. Only Chozen is also like a night in shining armor now. His character development relies heavily on themes of shame, acceptance, and forgiveness. Daniel literally changed Chozen's life in a way that CANNOT be understated.
I also shipped LaBarnes before it was cool (I say as it has like... 6 shippers lol. ) Out of pure curiosity. Mike doesn't have a lot going on in the movie and that made him a fun character to play with. Especially the angle of "I'm in it for the money." Plus he keeps calling Daniel things like sweetheart and saying he owns his ass so...
And then his redemption in CK s5 gives us a lot to play with as well.
Daniel and Ali I ship as cute goofy teenagers figuring things out.
KUMIKO IS Daniel's FIRST TRUE LOVE. And I will fight people on that. It's love that was meant to be then wasn't. Two ships passing in the night. They changed each other forever in their short time together, and obviously never really "got over" each other. It's sweet and pure and heartbreaking.
Daniel and Amanda I ship because they give so many bi4bi #gender goals vibes. Amanda is just as unhinged as Daniel, and I think he needs that. I think they balance each other out in a way that really works. They subvert the typical tropes of a male/female romance with their character types. Also the height difference is hot.
Daniel and Kreese is something I never thought I would ship, but eventually the brain worms got to me. I just find Kreese's mind so morbidly fascinating. He was truly obsessed with Daniel. Why? There is so much to play with. Plus, it's also aesthetically pleasing and anons have tricked me into writing domestic au's for my hate-fucking ship.
I ship Daniel with all the Cobras. Usually as a group although I do think Dutch had something Going On given how he acts in the locker room scene. Incredibly feral.
There's probably more that I'm forgetting, and I'm not gonna get into the ot3's or I'll be here all day. Lol.
(whatever the fuck is going on between Kreese/Silver/Daniel has bewitched me though. )
💜
Edit: I forgot I also wrote samtory and cobra husbands. Samtory are feral angry girls and I love that for them. I ship cobra husbands only in the most heartbreaking way.

My version of Mammon. I quite like him. This design for him was first featured in my height chart of my sins.
Due to my deviation from the show's canon to my own AU, I wanted to do something else with Mammon more fitting to my characterization of him. A big thing is it's my headcanon that none of the sins are inherently evil. Some of them may come off that way due to how they behave based on their sin. But the behavior isn't really something they can help. Not that it makes them good, just not evil.
This is the idea I was running with when I made my own characterization of him. Design wise, I tried to deviate pretty heavily from my original thoughts on him based on what's been implied by the show. The most I kept was the four arms. Otherwise, I strayed away from the whole circus act and tried to avoid the jester look. If anything, I based his current design more on how I interpreted him very early on. The same yellow skin, green eyes, bat wings, and serrated tail.
To explain the two different outfits, I like to imagine he keeps his public image vs his private image pretty separate. When he wants to be recognized in public, he goes a lot more formal with a suit and tophat with a crown on it. When he wants to be more casual and not recognized right away, he goes without the suit, and just wears a regular shirt and pants, and just ties back his long hair. I have a lot on this character, and really all my characters, but so this post isn't too much longer than it already is, I'll keep it simple.
He's actually very good with hair styling due to him having to constantly style his hair in a way it can fit into the hat and not be visible whatsoever. He has very long hair (Down to lower back) normally.
He wears a head cover to hide his ears and whatever part of his hair can't be tied up. He covers pretty much everything but his face, wings, and tail
He's a heavy coffee drinker and also collects mugs with silly quotes. If he hoards anything besides money, it's mugs.
I run with the idea that due to the sins' bodily make ups, they can't actually get drunk or high by conventional means. Coffee is one of the few things he feels anything from (caffeine) so he drinks it constantly because he doesn't like soda (the carbonation mostly)
He smokes a lot of cigars
I gave him crow feet because crows and magpies are animals associated with Mammon and I like birds
The spines on his tail are serrated. Running one's hand on them is a really bad idea
He's really hard to offend as he will laugh at damn near anything. Especially if you actively try to insult him, he will either laugh or agree while laughing. Attacking the few things he cares about is the way to get under his skin
I have more, but I'll leave it at this for now. I'm sure I'll probably make more art of him and my other sins
