WIP Wednesday
Once again, don't have very much, but I'll share what I have written so far of my next fluff prompts! (potatoes / blue / glass, plus a bonus prompt of "recovery" from a separate list, because I took the Fluffuary prompts very loose and casual 😅) Tagged by @insert-witty-user-name-here, thanks!
Cold wind whipped Mobius' tie wildly over his shoulder. Under the long sleeves of his suit, he felt goosebumps spring up all along his arms as the chill engulfed his body. Though the temperature had been mild just moments ago, he watched a visible mist escape from his mouth right before his eyes with every breath. Still shocked at the sudden turn the mission had taken, Mobius turned his wide eyes toward the source of the wintry blast. As many times as he'd watched and examined Loki's Jotun form in the time reels, he'd never before had the privilege to see it in person. But now, there he was.
I'll leave the tagging casual again; if you see this and want to share any WIPs, go for it!

if you get this, answer with three random facts about yourself and send it to the last seven blogs in your notifs. anon or not, doesn’t matter, let’s get to know the person behind the blog !
Hard for me to think of facts that are interesting but not....concerning....
1: I really love fishing and would like to make it a genuine hobby one day!! ( I don't do it often bc of time/weather/poor local fishing spots)
2: PomPom Purin and Tuxedo Sam are my fav Sanrio characters and I have stickers of them on my work name tag :]
3: the gamegrumps Instagram account once put my sketchy furry fanart on their story and it's haunted me ever since.

It's been a while since I finished these, but better late than never for a ranking time! I obviously favor games I've done Let's Plays of - I don't know if that's because I'm proactively very good at selecting games to record that I know I will enjoy, or if I'm retroactively trying to justify my choices, or if the process of recording actively made me enjoy them better. I can't explain it. I don't know. These are #221-230.
Shadows Over Loathing - I should never play another game this long on the channel again, or spread out a playthrough over so many months. I was so relieved to be done with this game in the end but that doesn't change the fact that it is hilarious, deceptively beautiful, and a whole lot of fun.
Jotun - So cool, Thunder Lotus make good bideo game. I don't have much new to say about this one, sorry, it's just really good.
Harmony: The Fall of Reverie - A unique take on choice-consequence and the visual novel. It succeeds at creating a kind of cold detachment from the story that an omniscient god would experience, while still being plenty beautiful and impactful.
Minit Fun Racer - Short and sweet, as a follow-up to Minit this successfully transported me back to the exciting time in my gaming journey that I was in when I first played that game.
GoNNer - As a roguelike shooter, this one got a bit monotonous after a time, which I blame mostly on a dark and minimalistic color palette making every run feel samey after a while. There were still a lot of cool ideas here and I was a bit addicted for a couple of days.
Monster Prom - I guess I got exactly what I expected out of this game, a raunchy dating sim with absolutely no sense of propriety. I have heard that the sequels have more substance in the form of story and character, which I did miss after a few runs here. I'll probably play those in the future.
Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? - The performances were the biggest highlight here, as they tend to be for any FMV game. I just kind of felt like the characters as written were landing with me as they were intended to.
They Bleed Pixels - Okay, so I still think I like platformers, but the big caveat there is that they have to be pure platforming with no combat baked in. The brutal difficulty and edgy gore of this game don't really bother me. (They didn't bother me in Super Meat Boy either.) But I hated having to balance the jumps and spikes and whatnot with attacking enemies.
SkateBIRD - I disliked both of these last two games so much that I didn't even make posts about them. This one was actually cute, I've just never played a skating game before and I didn't understand the controls.
Skyling: Garden Defense - I found this one very ugly and hard to look at.

Shout out to "Jotun" for giving me a Zelda-like experience that I don't hate. I've always wanted to delve into the wonder and whimsy of a game like "Legend of Zelda" but I find it's so reliant on "find x to get y to fight z to get alpha to find beta to defeat omicron" and it feels overwhelmingly big. People raved about "Tunic" but I found it dull and perplexing in equal measure, but "Jotun" is tailor made for me.
It has a very simple premise, only nine realms to explore and each realm only has one or two key things that you *need* to find in order to face one of six bosses. It's like an isometric, hand drawn "Shadow of the Colossus" (without the climbing sadly) interwoven with Norse mythology. It is a fun little delight to play and while the Jotuns themselves are challenging, death rarely feels unfair. It's because you attack one too many times not giving yourself time to dodge or you used a spell that would have been better saved for later. It's just a fun, wholesome experience.

Ice Flower Masterlist ❄ Loki Masterlist ❄ Masterlist
Tumblr media
The wooden ground beneath your feet rustled and crunched; aching a bit underneath your weight. Your steps were precise. Almost calculated. No twig snapped or cracked - luckily. Every wrong step could give you away. You had to be fast and quiet.
A cakewalk.
You stopped a second to look up in the sky, which was almost impossible. High, thick trees shielded your view. But there was no doubt... It would get dark soon. Time was running out.
Your breath was laboured; left your lips in small clouds of smoke.
It got cold.
You didn't feel the coldness, though. Your body was heated, due to the running and high adrenaline level within your system. Hot blood pumped through your veins.
The sheer inaudible sound of a breaking twig caused your head to snap behind you.
Nothing. Yet.
You quickly found your focus again, adjusted the sword, which was strapped to your back and kept on running; quietly cursing underneath your breath. You had worked hard for this advantage - and now you had squandered it.
He was close. You could tell. You weren't stupid. And if you'd make one wrong step now or stop, you were sure that he'd catch you. Something you couldn't allow to happen.
As you were running, your brain worked hard to choose the right path - which wasn't easy. The forest was huge - and yet he had 'found' you that quick. As if you were a wounded animal; leaking blood in the ocean. And he was the shark, smelling the blood. You needed a plan. Right now.
The gears in your head started to turn and when you passed by an all too familiar glade, it fell like scales from your eyes. Of course! Why didn't I think earlier of this!
If you can't outrun him, let him outrun you.
You smirked; quickly making a sharp left turn.
Tumblr media
Your eyes scanned your surroundings ahead and when you spotted the huge fir, which had been split by lightning, you smiled.
Exactly where I wanted to lure him.
You looked behind you for a moment; swearing that you saw something blue flash between the trees.
Got you.
It was quiet. Too quiet.
Intentionally, you slowed your tempo; let him get closer - until you could practically feel his presence behind you.
You stopped at an old oak - exactly the one you had to stop; pretending to catch your breath. But your eyes kept on roaming the area around you. There was nothing. No one to be seen.
And then everything happened fast.
He literally came out of nowhere, big, blue, veiny hands winding themselves around your waist like a tendril, before bulging muscles tore you (gently) to the cold, moist mossy ground. You knew it was going to happen, but nevertheless you didn’t see it coming.
"Got you, my queen."
You shook your head; giggling. It wasn't quite easy to tame yourself at the sight of your husband looking so dashing in the slowly sinking sun - but somehow, you managed.
A dark velvet voice purred from above you.
Loki was hovering over your laying body. His hands pinned your wrists to the ground; holding them in a firm but not painful grip. Your legs were secured between his knees; powered by the warrior's strong legs. The leather of his loincloth strained against the king's thick thighs.
His abs clenched with every sharp breath he took; hot breath fanning against your face.
"You wish, my king. What do you dream about at night?"
"Mhh," you purred.
A deep chuckle rumbled through Loki's chest; a few strands of curly raven hair falling into his face. "Mostly you, darling... And the sinful sounds leaving those pretty lips whenever I worship the holy temple your body is."
You had to swallow hard, in order to not squirm or squeak up at his words. His charming, tempting words never failed to affect you - and you had a hard time trying to not let it show right now.
Now wasn't the right time to give in to his seductive words. Loki could be a mischievous scamp - and you knew exactly that he would use his silver-tongue to trick you into losing. But not today. Time to beat him at his own game.
You bit your lip and stared directly into his beautiful ruby eyes. "Tempting. As always..." You pulled him into a passionate kiss; lips moving against his, teeth clashing.
You kept on biting, nibbling and sucking on his lips, when you started to move. With your hands firmly tangled around his neck, you managed to stand up; forcing your husband to get on his feet as well. Loki's palms glided over your back to settle on your ass; squeezing the supple flesh and yanking your hips into his. You couldn't help the small moan which slipped past your opened lips; feeling Loki latch on your pulse point.
The Jotun king's eyes fluttered shut. A moan threatened to leave his throat, but you swallowed it whole by even depending the kiss.
Once Loki was completely lost in the little make out session, you acknowledged that the time had come for you to turn the tables.
Focus, Y/N, focus.
You brought his mouth back on yours, before you started to back him up. Only a few more steps...
"...but your silver-tongue won't save you this time, my king. You won't win this game."
Right after your words had left your lips - and Loki confused, he stepped inside the trap you had build decades ago. A rope slung itself around his ankles and brought the hunky warrior to his knees, before pulling him off the ground. The trap was reckless; didn't show any mercy and caused Loki to end up hanging upside down on a tree, above the ground; dangling helplessly back and forth.
While Loki yelped up in surprise, you just giggled and stepped closer. "Told you so, my love." You tapped the space between his strong pecs with your hand; feeling the dark, fine hair which grew there tickling your palm. Loki was way too stunned to answer something in that moment. He just stared at you, then at your hand and back.
"Tag, you're it!" You giggled with a wink and turned on your heels to run away.
All you heard was a loud groan of your husband, followed by his voice calling out to you. "Little minx! Just you wait until I have freed myself!"
Tumblr media
It took Loki longer than you expected to free himself from the little trap you had lured him into. It gave you just enough time to complete the plan you had forged inside your head to walk victorious out of that little playful game of tag and hide and seek.
And now that the tables had turned, time was on your side. Not much longer and the sun would be replaced by the moon; announcing your victory.
Checking your surroundings one last time, you started to climb a big, high oak and settled on a strong branch; leaning against the stem. This tree was perfect to hide yourself in. Thick with leafs to keep you shielded from Loki's view but not thick enough to keep him shielded from your view. You smiled to yourself. The victory is mine.
Time passed - and was running out for Loki. While he made use of all his hunting and tracking abilities, you were literally enjoying yourself up in the tree; watching a few wild animals and listened to the bird's songs.
You had gained enough distance and left the perfect amount of clues for your husband to find you just when the sun was about to set.
He may be the best hunter and warrior of Jotunheim - but Asgard is my playground, you thought to yourself with a smirk, as you watched him approach you through your binocular.
You watched your husband's head snap into your direction; fierce ruby eyes scanning the area. He froze in all his movements for a moment; just listening and observing, before he started to walk straight towards the tree you were hiding in.
You prepared yourself for the final step of your plan; getting into position and loosening the rope attached to your belt.
When Loki was in earshot, you reached above yourself and broke a twig into two, gaining his attention. After all, you needed to make sure that he was walking past this oak.
He took the bait.
Smirking, you climbed into position and directed your gaze beneath you. The king had learned to move quietly as well, but nevertheless you could hear his heavy boots crushing the small twigs and leafs underneath their weight. After all, he was taller, stronger and bulkier than you.
His steps got closer and closer, until he was right underneath the branch you were sitting on - and that was your sign.
You jumped - and landed directly on your husband.
The force of your jump swept the Jotun king off his feet, causing him to land on his butt with a yelp for the second time today. Loki didn't hurt himself, but was way too shocked at what just happened to react. When his brain finally caught up, you had already tied the rope you carried with you around his wrists. Makeshift cuffs.
"Got you, my king," you said with a smile; copying his words. "Again, might I add." You winked at Loki; standing up.
The king sighed and shook his head. "What a tragedy... The best warrior of Jotunheim, defeated by a woman... But your victory is highly deserved. You always had the upper hand."
Loki stayed quite for a moment, before he gazed up at you and gave you a smouldering look, accompanied by a sly smirk. "I came here to win, but..." He inhaled deeply; licking his lips. "Losing to you, my darling wife is so much more fun..." He wiggled his eyebrows and lifted his cuffed hands.
He really likes this.
You giggled and bit your lip. "Uhh, does the powerful king of Jotunheim likes being cuffed?" A dark, sexy chuckle left Loki's lips, which almost caused your knees to buckle. "If it's by his queen, then yes." An idea formed suddenly in your mind at his words. You smiled.
"Be careful what you wish for, husband," you leaned down to whisper into Loki's ears. It sent a shiver down his spine. You could tell.
You reached for the loose end of the rope and tucked at it. "Stand up, prisoner. Time to bring you back where you belong to." You winked at your husband; telling him subtly to play along, if he wished to - and he did. Following your orders, he stood up. "Yes, my queen."
You led him through the Asgardian woods then, back to the palace. It was pitch-dark when you reached the majestic building. Without further ado, you brought him not to the dungeons, of course, but to your chambers...
As soon as the thick, wooden door fell shut behind you and him, your lips were on his; kissing Loki passionately. With one hand still wrapped tightly around the loose end of the rope and the other resting on the strong muscle of his right pectoral, you pushed him backwards; navigating your husband where you wanted him to be - on the bed. Loki let you, of course; was way too lost in the kiss - until the back of his knees hit the edge of the bed, causing him to fall back.
Ruby eyes stared up to you as he chuckled. "I see I am back where I belong..." Loki mirrored your words and climbed further onto the soft mattress; smiling smugly. "I like that. Do I get a reward now for all the efforts and exertions I had to endure on this little... chase?"
"A reward?" You asked; rounding the bed.
"Oh yes."
"Hmm..." You hummed in a thinking manner; climbing on the bed, too. "You'd love that, wouldn't you?" The question had barely left your lips as your hand landed on his muscular thigh. Loki's eyes snapped to where your palm met his flesh. He grinned.
"Can't you tell, my queen?"
Loki's breath hitched; hips involuntarily bucking.
You knew, of course, exactly what he meant. The tight leather loincloth around his hips didn't leave much... space after all.
"Oh, I can tell, prisoner. It's quite obvious, but..." You let your hand glide upwards; ghosting shortly over the obvious evidence.
"I'd like to hear you say it," you purred.
You smiled; pushed him back on his back. "And what would you like as a reward?" "Untie my hands and I'll show you." Loki winked.
Loki took a deep breath; smirking. "Mhhh, a woman who knows what she wants... I like that, too." He adjusted himself on the bed; tried to seductively lay on his side - which wasn't easy being handcuffed.
"May I receive an reward for my fearless bravery?"
Biting your lip, you climbed on top of Loki; settling on his lap - which caused an almost obscene groan to leave his lips.
"No."
Your answer was short and strict and before Loki could blink or even react, he found himself cuffed to the big, comfortable bed; wrists strapped to the bedpost.
"You see, prisoner... I won this little game. Fair and square. So, this..." You gestured towards him, then placed your pointer finger on the skin between his pecs; slowly running it down his chest and abs. "This is my reward. Tonight, I am in control."

So about those new FEH ocs.
We know that FEH stands out as being unapolegitically influence by Norse mythology.
However, there is a lot of peculairity that distinguish Norse mythology from the other.
Ratatoskr
Tumblr media
It's a squirrell that lives on one of Yggdrasil's branch. They run up and down the tree and play the role of messanger between the eagle Veðrfölnir who live above, and the snake Níðhöggr.
Most notably mentionned in the Poem of Edda
According to the several etymology brough up, Ratatoskr means "tusk the traveller" or "the climber tusk.
It is usually linked to the idea of repeating the circle of ever- destruction and rebirth. It is in short a messanger character.
It also serves the role of messanger between the gods however OG Ratatosk is a bit of a mischievious character who will often transmit between the eagle and the snake gossip to push them in destroying Yggdrasil to bring chaos, especially in the mythos of Ragnarok.
So how does it link to Book 8 ? Well.
Tumblr media
Ratatoskr can turn into a squirrel however, she in a way is the one carrying the role of messanger as she tells Alfonse about the plan that her father planned against Askr and Embla.
youtube
Her introduction in heroes begin by showing Ratatoskr running like a squirell down the tree of Yggdrasil, before falling down the branch.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Her sisters, Hræsvelgr and Níðhöggr are a reference to the eagle and snake OG Ratatoskr would deliver message and what do they hold in hands ?
Yeah...exactly.
The opening is a clear reference to the OG myth.
She is linked to Yggdrasil's specifically
Hræsvelgr
Tumblr media
It is the name of a Jotung aka a Giant that can turn into a Great Eagle that is considered responsible for brining the cold wind from the north.
Most notably mentionned in the Lay of Vafþrúðnir 
It's name means "corpse swallower. Whereas Ratasokr is linked to Yggdrasil, Hræsvelgr is linked to Jötnar, the realms of the Giant/Jotun.
Tumblr media
Hræsvelgr is in reality unrelated to the myth of Ratasokr however, teh Eagle to whom Ratasokr would deliver message's name is Veðrfölnir.
Veðrfölnir either refer to the name of an haw who sit between the eyes of the eagle receving Ratatoskr's messages (don't ask) or the eagle itself.
It's likely they took the Jotgun's name because of the Eagle being nameless in the first place.
Hræsvelgr has demonstrated that she would actually target Alfonse and try to kill him using her hands.
Níðhöggr
Tumblr media
It's a weird animal describes a being a dragon, a snake or even a worm.
According to the etymology reported of its name, "níð" refers to the name given to some individual in Viking society as a marker of social stigma, implying the loss of honor.
It lives under the long and deep roots of Yggdrasil, in Náströnd, one of the place in Hel. Níðhöggr feast upon the body of the people send there, those guilty of muder, oath breaking and adultery.
Because of the message Ratatoskr transmit, he is lead to eat slowly the root of the world-tree to cause it to fall. Its arrival is hence considered a sign of Ragnarok. Its name means Malice striker.
Tumblr media
In game Níðhöggr is presented as always getting intoxicated from eating some special "apples". However, in Norse mythology, apples are guarded in Asgard and eaten by the gods to not age, yes, in Norse mythology gods are NOT immortal nor eternally young. Not only can they be killed but they can grow old hence why they need the Golden apple kept in a garden in Asgard.
Tumblr media
That constant state of intoxication might be a play of word. The FE wiki remarks her design is remensicent of a doctor, the same way Ratatoskr and Hræsvelgr are based on a nurse and a surgeon respectively. Snakes are used to represent the ambiguity of the greek word "pharmakon" which means both poison and medicine. The fruit she is eating from can be both a way to heal or a way to kill. The fact she is trying to poison Veronica is a reference to that considering her constant state of intoxication is poisonning her own body, but being linked to the snake, she is probably immune to that.
Eikþyrnir
Tumblr media
It's a stag standing upon Vahalla that feast over the tree Læraðr.
It's name means "throny oak" and he is linked to Valhalla
Tumblr media
Heiðrún 
A goat by the side of Eikþyrnir who grazes upon Læraðr's branch. She produces mead for einherjar in Vahalla.
Her name would mean "she who bring the rest"
Tumblr media
Læraðr
It's a tree often identified with Yggdrasil, standing at the top of Vahalla. Its name is ambiguous as it can be read as either arranger of betrayal or giver of protection.
Tumblr media
Læraðr's ambuiguous name is most likely the key of this book's theme. We have a group of Divine beast called the Healer Hands that are now trying to kill Alfonse and Veronica.
Like I mentionned earlier, medicine have this ambuguous nature of being able to heal you but can also be a deadly poison. Likewise, the incapacity to establish the proper meaning of Læraðr's name means that he is either one who protects, either one who kill, who plot, who will make other rise up against one another. After all, the book open up right with Alfonse and the Askt Guardians pondering on whether or not Embla is trying to attack them yet again, making believe that the kingdom are trying to destroy each other and plotting to kill all the remainin rulers, Alfronse, Veronica and Queen Henriette being the main target.
However Læraðr share this common trait with OG Ratatoskr who had to carry out message to the Eagle and Níðhöggr to create discord between each other and push Níðhöggr to eat the roots of Yggradisl to make it fall.
Hence this Læraðr's who used to protect other by sending his "children" to heal other all across the realms become a Læraðr plotting the ruins of the kingdoms by creating discord, like Ratatoskr did in the original myth.
Moreover, Læraðr being occasionally associated to Yggdrasil as the same being and the Divine beast being all inspired by the myth collected in the Prose of Edda, it's likely that this connection is waht inspired the choice to have Læraðr being the father of the Divine Beast and the Divine Beast being siblings to each other.
We are at book 8, each one based on the story of different kingdom however Yggdrasil bears 9 kingdoms.
This one myth is particular because it's one of the legends that lead to the event of Ragnarok or if you prefer, the end of the world.
Is it a sign that we will soon approach the end of the main story in FEH ? Or another big conflict to come.
heh, we'll see when we got the next chapter
