#most powerful couple in the sea btw

Follow up of the Marco And Shanks Feuding Over Buggy -

Once things resolve, the captains are somehow the WORST instigators. Roger, once he realized Marco was flirting with his Baby Bug, is caught between "well, kid has good taste" and "Oh I Gotta Kill A Child".

Whitebeard makes frequent comments about daughter in laws and it sends EVERYONE reeling, especially Buggy. He thinks it's hilarious, and it mostly joking ((but a little serious)).

Maybe it's the multishipper in me, maybe it's the polyamory projection, but eventually Shanks and Buggy have The Conversation about being captains of the own crews, of being each other's most definitely, of being married ((they are 13-15 when The End Is Nigh for Roger, and I can see Buggy having a sudden realization that Captain that Dad is dying. She and Shanks speedrun being married so he can do it. They're minors so it isn't official, but they get/make rings, set it up and have Captain officiate it so they're "married". It's the closest they'll get to the real deal and both need their dad there for this.)).

Shanks and Buggy establish an open relationship. They can be with and pursue others, but communication is key and they need to just keep each other relatively in the loop.

Buggy jokingly asks if Marco is still a sore subject, and Shanks shoots her a grin. "If you stay mine, you can be with whoever you like. Just promise me you will make sure he treats you the way you deserve, princess."

The next time Marco crosses either, it's Shanks. And he asks "hey featherhead, still crushing on clowns?"

"And if I am?"

"Here's her denden number - be nice, be polite, don't hurt her or I'll roast you for dinner, chicken boy :))"

"What"

"Byyyyeeeee~"

"No wait what-yoi-?"

Buggy goes on to assemble the world's weirdest, most unexpected polycule. A Yonko husband, a Yonko's division commander boyfriend, two warlords, a Marine, maybe a Revolutionary, just... wild ass polycule.

((Bonus, once she settles in the East for a bit, Zeff takes one look at her and goes "Oh boy now I have a niece. Damn it all." He threatens to shovel talk anyone who dates his weird clown niece but they rarely stop by the East, so he's got the conversations scripted in his head. When Mihawk shows up, he is READY.))

Buggy also has a bunch of evil exes bc she's a catch but she doesn't always clock red flags. It's mostly fine, but if any attempt retaliation, usually she's oblivious, either bc her crew goes full Protect Mom Mode or bc her current partners... take out the trash, as it were :))

Once Luffy realizes Buggy is basically his step mom is all sorts of ways, the Strawhat Protection System is enacted full throttle. She is oblivious. It's hilarious. Buggy has Scary Dog Privileges and doesn't even realize.

Whitebeard still calls her daughter-in-law. Roger is screaming crying throwing up in the afterlife. Rayleigh flips between "Oh my baby girl can handle herself ahe's so strong" and "Nobody Is Good Enough For My Daughter". Crocus hoards all newspapers that so much as mention her or Shanks.

Just. Silly funny polycule shenanigans.

Buggy just has a whole ass harem of boys pining over her and she goes through life thinking they're normal about her but they're not. They're literally obsessed with her. She only loves Shanks and is fond of Crocodile and Mihawk (ends up falling for them eventually, y'know) and the people she has been with have always been just kind of there? She doesn't forget them but she doesn't really care about them either. IT girl, girlboss behavior for once even if she's still a failgirl. But they always remember her. She's not easy to forget. Everybody that loves her is so protective of her too and she wonders why she never gets bothered by anybody?? She believes it's because she's now important and scary and yadda yadda but it's just because people have to go through Rayleigh, the strawhats, Shanks, and Cross Guild to get to her. So, you know, she's protected.

This is just amazing, btw. I also think they have an open relationship. And Marco being extremely confused when Shanks gives him Buggy's number is just hilarious, help. He's having a moment there wondering if it's a trap or something. I think Buggy would have the time of her life, and although Shanks also sleeps with other people, his heart will always be with Buggy. Like- He's the clingiest most annoying husband in the world. He's so proud of calling Buggy his wife. He's just there cheering for her, knowing that no matter how many people she's with, she'll go back to him!! The trust they could've had in each other if things would've gone well,,,,,, Going insane.

#crying shaking sobbing #most powerful couple in the sea btw #i love the concept of everybody being protective of buggy she deserves it #one piece #buggy the clown #red haired shanks #shuggy

HESPERIA/BETTERFLY kamikotized heroes Headcanons PART 2

Since there is no Stone Heart in this reverse universe, I’m sure someone is wondering what triggered The Supreme to give the two most powerful miraculous to a couple of emo Parisian teenagers. 

So let’s do this…. *cracks knuckles and instantly regrets it*

Maybe it’s the etymology nerd in me, but I feel the amount of word play and pun usage in the show is either under-appreciated or lost in translation, so you will have to endure my ramblings behind “Hero” names.

But don’t worry, I will still include the action bits… the situation that called for a Hero, powers, appearance, and any interactions with Shady and Claw since I know THAT’s what you’re here for~

Fire Captain Hessenpy becomes…. 

Neo-Libérateur!

(Since this character’s name was intentionally ironic/a joke, I felt it important to put extra thought into their name… btw, if you’re lost, Hessen is a very white german for a person who lives in a forest. So naming the Fire Captain Hessenpy is like, the American equivalent of Smokey the Bear.)

Now, in the normal or ‘prime’ universe, in France, fire-fighters are called “sapeurs-pompiers”.

       But in our ‘reverse’ universe where The Supreme rules all, after WW2 fire-fighters were re-branded as “Fire-suppressors”, or “suppresseurs- pompiers”.   Sounds much less aggressive, more formal, doesn’t use words like “fighting” which has connotations of violence.

WHY IS THIS DETAIL IMPORTANT??

      ….I’m getting to that, geesh!

You don’t need to be a linguistic expert to figure out that “Libérateur” is the opposite of “Suppresseur”, since they are close enough to English.  But I bet you are lost on the “Neo” bit, eh?   Here is some fun word-play for you;

      In French, “pompiers” is an informal way to refer to firemen. HOWEVER, in French “pompier” is also an academic term, a rather negative one, in regards to imitating the conservative painting style of neoclassical artists.

            Wow, are you bored? Why should you care?  BECAUSE I’M MAKING A PUN ON HIS PROFESSION AND HIS SUPERHERO APPEARANCE! 

This is actually the first Hero that Betterfly/Hesperia kamikotizes.

The Butterfly Brooch grants the wearer an almost telepathic type of Empathy, as we saw in S4, “Ephemeral”, even when not transformed, Gabriel was alerted to the presence of strong emotions nearby, like an emotional smoke-detector. 

     The wearer of the Brooch can be alerted to intense emotions without intentionally searching for them even when they are not transformed.

This is the case when Gabriel was simply working on fashion design sketches in his atelier (office) when he was suddenly bombarded with an intense wave of terror. Not just the fear of one person, but of many!

Pulling up a live news broadcast on his tablet he quickly identifies the source; a bus that has lost control has caused many drivers to swerve wildly out of the way to avoid collision. But even more concerning is that the bus full of passengers is heading towards the Seine.

Gabriel can hear the screams of each passenger echoing in his own mind, and his pulse races.

Nooru can sense his holder’s thoughts and warns him not to be reckless, but Gabriel can’t possibly do nothing and with his words of transformation, light wings rise and Gabriel Agreste becomes Betterfly.

Just as he transforms, the news footage on the tablet shows that the Bus has crashed into the stone railing of the Pont au Change bridge, and now the Bus is dangling precariously over the Seine… one wrong move and it will tumble over into the river!

He can feel the fear of onlookers, paralyzed into inaction, fully aware of how helpless they are…. 

     The passengers are on the brink of hysterics, perhaps they too are aware of how long it will take rescue crews to arrive at the scene, time they do not have.

            Among the sea of chaos and hopelessness, Gabriel can FEEL it- a spark of determination, a desire to do something, courage to take action but not knowing what action to take.

                     Perhaps the fluttering wings of a moth can fan this spark into a roaring flame.

Off duty Fire Captain Hessenpy’s eyes are locked on the Buss teetering on the edge, so he does not notice the glittering white butterfly that perches onto and melds with his helmet.

But he hears the voice; confident yet somehow soothing. The voice identifies as a friend who wishes to lend him the strength to save those in need. It asks if he will accept this gift for the greater good?

A woman screams as gravity leans the front half of the bus ever closer to a watery grave.

Hessenpy does not hesitate.

He can feel it- unknown strength rippling through his veins in a surge of heat. 

    He charges valiantly towards the Bus, deaf to the sounds of his uniform tearing at the seams from his suddenly engorged muscles.

Now shirtless, and the remains of what were once trousers just barely concealing his dignity, Neo-Libérateur grasps the sides of the bus like Hercules grabbing the horns of the Cretan Bull, his blue eyes glowing with ferocity, grunting with great effort that for a moment, onlookers could swear some of the brown color from his hair drained from the exertion, making his locks briefly appear blond.

         The sharp contours of his body posed in such a way that would put even Atlas himself to shame as Neo-Libérateur hefted the buss further away from the edge until both back wheels were once more touching the ground.

It is only then that sirens fill the air.

Rescue crews have finally arrived at the scene,  winches and tow cables are secured to the bus and it is hauled back away from damaged bridge.

       Neo-Libérateur collapses to the ground with exhaustion as soon as the bus doors are forcibly opened for rescue crew members to retrieve the trapped passengers.

The kamiko relinquishes it’s alliance with  Neo-Libérateur, and Captain Hessenpy is left feeling exposed, for more reasons than one, as he is surrounded by both admirers and people with questions.

Letting the wings of transformation fall, Gabriel Agreste releases his own sigh of relief.

       But Nooru can not relax. Using the power of the Miraculous so openly is sure to attract The Supreme’s attention! 

           Gabriel knows, but he had no choice…. He can sense the relief of a mother, a passenger on the bus, holding her infant to her chest in overwhelming gratitude. The baby, oblivious to the danger he had faced, feels only comfort and safety in his mother’s embrace.

                  This is why Gabriel had to act.

   There is STILL good in this world, there are still people who are moved to do what is right without the promise of reward or benefit to themselves. There is still hope of creating a better tomorrow for their children.

         Still hope for the kind of future Emelie wanted for Adrien.

Gabriel is not so naive as to believe this task will be easy, but he knows that if he does nothing, if he does not use these powers to at least make an attempt to help those in need, then he is no better than The Supreme.

The News Media is quick to focus the story on WHY the bus lost control, and what precautions will be made to prevent similar occurrences from repeating in the future, as well as discussion of re-modeling the antique  

Pont au Change to a more modern design with reinforced safety railings. Time of construction and cost of materials being of the utmost concern.

         Captain Hessenpy’s involvement is mentioned only briefly, and swept under the rug with the dull and plausible explanation of a rush of adrenaline allowing for such strength under extreme duress, not unlike that which allows mothers to overturn cars to free trapped children in a panicked state.

No one questions it… Save for an overly suspicious teenage girl.

Only The Supreme knows the truth. 

    Now he knows that whoever stole the peacock and butterfly miraculous is hiding in Paris.

Based on what has transpired, it seems the thief wishes to play the role of “Hero”.

      What better way to lure out a “Hero” than with a “Villain” or two?

The Butterfly’s powers can be tricky to combat against given the long range as well as the diversity of powers that can manifest.  

    The Ladybug has the best adaptability as well as damage control, while the Black Cat has the best chance of cutting off a Kamikotized Champion’s source of power, even the kamiko itself.   

     The two of them are too powerful to be handed to just anyone. The Supreme knows that even amongst those who have proven their worth and loyalty to be entrusted with the rare privilege of using a miraculous, the temptation for betrayal is great.

Rather, it would be better to find someone ignorant of the weight of such power. 

 Please see my first post, “Supreme Identity theory” for further elaboration.

(Hint, hint, you can also see The Supreme’s selection process in my post “Shadybug/Claw Noir Reverse Umbrella scene Headcanon.”  which takes places just little over a week of the Neo-Libérateur incident.)

Idk if I can link to previous posts or not. I’m tech dumb.

Feel free to google Neoclassic art styles if you are still lost on the pun.

Not so much funny as it is dramatic… but this is Gabriel Agreste. You can’t have fashion without drama.

Ok, I'll be the one, Fubuki!!

you didnt say which number so i answered all 30 of them

1. My first impression of them

me and GX really had an enemies to lovers arc i could barely sit through the first episode after finishing DM the guitar stings were too much. i did not care much for any of the characters. it grew on me though we are besties now obvs

2. When I think I truly started to like them (or dislike them, if you've sent me a character I don't like)

i think i realized how much i liked S1 nightshroud first bc i love campy and ostentatious femme villains and then my love spread to regular fubuki around the time i got to s4 and then he graduated to a proper Blorbo and well the rest is history…

3. A song that reminds me of them

go fish by cub (ask me no more questions / ill tell you no more lies / about my sweet little trip to the other side) also obligatory fubuki playlist link

4. How many people I ship them with

off the top of my head 4 (ryo yusuke reggie manga!jim) but my interpretations tend to stretch the definition of “ship”

5. My favorite ship of them

idols hehe ^_^ lh4wds couple (lighthouse 4 wine dark sea)

6. My least favorite ship of them

theres not any i particularly dislike to be honest. hes a charismatic guy.

7. A quote of them that you remember

WHEN STAGE LIGHT HITS YOU THAT WHICH IS BEHIND YOU IS SACRIFICED TO SHADOW ! 🌟

8. Your favorite outfit of them

first i have to come out as an turn 60 austin powers cosplay enjoyer so sue me the purple looks nice on him secondly HIS LADY OSCAR OUTFIT!!! I WISH I COULD PICK THE BRAIN OF THE ANIMATOR WHO PUT HIM IN HER OUTFIT SOOO BAD ITS EVERYTHING TO ME

9. Your least favorite outfit of them

nightshroud outift but only when its lit by cool lighting and looks gray thats when its ugly when its lit warm and looks brown its flattering!! see theres a stark difference here!!

10. Describe the character in one sentence

11. What's the first thing you think about when thinking about the character?

“BUKI!!! :)” <- too happy to formulate coherent thoughts

12. Sexuality hc!

little bisexual weirdo

13. Your favorite friendship they have

manjoume and him are so sweet and funny thats his little guy. thats the chihuahua to his valley girl

14. Best storyline they had

season 4 makes me screammm its about absence as a presence its about how running from something only gives it more power over you its about confronting the horrors and chosing to live with them instead of dying to escape them…

15. Worst storyline they had

the jokes around his treatment of asuka in the show proper arent Great but i have a thick enough skin to slough through it… that being said the flanderization he endures in the spinoff games especially cross duel SUUCCKKK the “trying to marry off my bitch sister” jokes werent funny in 2004 they arent funny now STOP TRYING TO BRING THEM BACK. even more of a bummer bc i think his love for love and romance are such endearing parts of his character seeing them flattened down into bad jokes makes me -___-

16. childhood headcanon

regularly held concerts for an audience of his stufffed animals drew flyers to hand out and everything it was a whole production.

17. What do you think their first word was?

he needs attention. something attention grabbing like “HI” or “HEY!” or “ME!” something like that

18. How do you think they were as a kid? (Like, were they shy, noisy, wild, etc)

he was just as outgoing and chipper but also.. yk he was an emotional feminine kid with long hair who didnt like conflict and kids are mean.. but i think asuka looked out for him a lot and beat up his bullies

19. The most random ship you've seen people have with them

fubuki/shoji (manjoumes older brother) is so funny. i love it btw i think its such a serve and there are interesting ways you can spin it like yess fubuki chase the childhood you barely got to live by hooking up with a man who looks eerily like your highschool protege and maybe gold dig while your at it

20. A weird headcanon

i think him and asuka grew up in the middle of bumfuck nowhere (nowhere near the ocean he just picked up surfing really fast his freshman year) and them and the marufujis have a lil country mouse city mouse thing going on. and i draw him with rubber bands on his fingers to help with his memory issues :)

21. When do you think they were at their happiest?

freshman year of duel academy he was on top of da world baby

22. When do you think they were at their lowest?

the almost two years he spent in the nihilism nightmare depression hell dimension or the day he found out Prince died

23. Future headcanon

he does acting and entertainment dueling and shows up on variety shows and keeps teasing his album but refuses to release it until he he can get asuka to feature on a song. if he did ever release music all his music videos concepts would have a rich interlocking story ala the loonaverse

24. What do you think is a secret they have that they never told anyone?

he dodges questions about the darkness BIG TIME and even lies about like the time he lies to judais face about how oh im fine :) the darkness isnt in me anymore :) he really doesnt want to worry people i think he goes to his grave with just how much his time there sucked and how he suffered afterward. i dont think he would ever tell ryo or asuka how bad it really was

25. When do you think they acted the most ooc

this is hard hes on screen like 4 times

26. When do you think they were being "themselves" the most?

fubuki is always himself even at the absolute height of his performance and apparent detachment from reality because the act of performance is so baked into his character he would not be truly “himself” without it. he is both the mask and the wearer.

27. If they could meet a character from another show/movie/etc, who would be the most fun for them to meet?

HE SHOULD MEET JOEYYY i think joey wheeler is his personal hero… also him and ryan akagi from infinity train book 4 could absolutely kick it. two dudes who want to become rock stars and were trapped in hell/purgatory for a while

28. The most unnecessary thing they ever did?

the pensive ukulele strumming to punctuate his revenge monologue to kagemaru

29. How do you think they would be as a parent? (and if they are a parent, how do you think they would be if they weren't?)

I THINK HED BE A GREAT PARENT !!! a bit overbearing and doting but only bc he loves so so much.. hed be so good with young kids until they grow into teens and realize hes cringe

30. The funniest scene they had?

gotta be dropping down from the ceiling to call gay people “taboo and thrilling” and his sister homophobic

if you made it this far.. thank you for indulging my craziness 💖

[autism-purgatory]

fuck it here’s how magic in Shadows of Novald works.

Magic is usually granted by an entity, and they technically aren’t gods. They’re worshipped by cults here and there, but none of them have ever expanded into a widespread religion. These gods are associated with concepts, and as long as those concepts exist, that god has a semblance of power, and doesn’t need worship to keep its influence. Magic is separated into different categories with several abilities

Beastly: Associated with, you guessed it, beasts and monsters of all strifes, associated with Eelvan, the god of hunting, cannibalism, monsters, and all those who are outcast and shunned. Dusoans (volcanic serpentine beings with four eyes that turn people into statues of ash) Vampires (people who drink dragons blood and turn into them gradually over thousands of years), Werewolves, dragons, chimeras, all are under the eye of Eelvan, protecting them with their curse.

Spectral: Associated with the paranormal, ghosts, death, necromancy on some occasions, and darkness. Shades, demons, the Blotting (deadly ghost smoke that poisons you over time). Also associated with Thopa, the god of the moon, the Chasm (the afterlife), thieves, death, darkness, etc. they try to stop humans from reaching divinity or using magic, which is why humans can’t use magic, and also why the moon had a giant freaky eye on it. You are directly using your own life force with this magic, which is why it’s been deliberately forbidden and made impossible to learn.

Knowledge: This is an odd one. One gains this magic by making a deal with a collector, an eldritch scion who collects forbidden knowledge for their master, the distant god Dun’rul. Knowledge mages can use eldritch powers including dark tentacles, telekinesis, depends on the collector you made a deal with. You have to collect knowledge with its help whenever it wants, so that’s a setback.

Heat: it’s not just fire I swear, it’s literally just heat, like the wavy hot air that sprays from a propane tank, that kind of heat. Also, extremely flammable, which is why any anyone with a heat seal on their body’s aren’t allowed into cinemas, since the heat they radiate could incinerate the film, even from a distance. Its setback is that its, yknow, extremely dangerous, and you have to be incredibly experienced in magic to get a license for it.

Water: Pretty self explanatory, but water is everywhere. Like most elements, it can’t directly manipulate the body. Water can’t manipulate blood or any liquid that’s too viscous to be manipulated. Water magic can crystallize into ice or even snow. Associated with the dead ocean god Marian. Legend says her corpse is still rotting on the sea floor. She was killed by Thopa (who can kill gods btw) due to siding with humanity and making the Oceanids and Sirenids. Water often times needs your own moisture as a conduit, which can be draining.

Weather: the oldest form of magic, which includes fog, lightning, rapid winds, and the common contribution to electricity. Associated with Teo, the sun god. Them and Thopa are lovecraftian gods with some fantasy elements sprinkled in. Teo is omnipotent, and always observing, waiting for the perfect moment to incinerate their sibling. They granted magic to people. They also developed certain concepts on the barren earth, creating most of the gods. Weather is a dangerous magic, since you could suffocate or electrocuted.

Destruction: Blood magic. It can explode, melt steel, set on fire, all it needs is your blood. Unless you’re a knight or extremely trained cop (ew) you aren’t learning this magic legally any time soon. It’s associated with Vuro, the god of war, natural disasters and male attraction. They are married to Vura, the god of…

Fusion: associated with mending materials including flesh. You can’t reattach limbs with this, just to mend small cuts or graft skin. It can mend bone though, Fusion is also performed in some kingdoms for marriage ceremonies, where the couple mends two bits of separated flesh together. Some people take it too far. The Grafted are those who were fully overtaken by Fusion, melting together in an unstoppable abomination, its only at this stage can they fuse body parts to themselves, but they are usually limp and unusable.

Song: considered a dead form of magic, which died out when the Sirenids went extinct near the end of Antiquity. Not even the Deep Oceanids can do it anymore. The scary thing about it is that it’s the only element besides spectral that can directly manipulate the body or mind. It does this through hypnosis.

Technology: The newest form of magic, and probably ISNT a form of magic. Humanity’s lack of magic eventually lead to a revolution in technological advancement and innovation like radios, electricity, plumbing, motors, even silent films! Gargoyles technically fall under this category (they’re fueled by dragons blood and are bound to a building to protect it). Constructs are smaller, weaker machines that carry out complex tasks and even jobs. They do it with no sapience behind their actions like an Alexa or Siri. The abandoned ones worship a god called Nobody, and sing in the depths of Novald’s sewers. It’s theorized that they’re trying to bring back the magic of song by resurrecting Marian.

Percy Jackson and The Olympian's Season 1 vs The Lightning Thief.

Hi everyone,

I'm back again and planning on doing regular blog posts.

Now, since I've read a lot of Rick Riodran's books, I've decided to start my regular blog posting spree again, by doing a comparison to the TV series vs the books, whilst hoping that the books are better than the tripe that they called movies. And the Olympians and Nine Muses must have heard my prayers.

Now beware spoilers and a very long blog posts. In fact I might be finding out if Tumblr has a character limit.

Now I'm not going to go into too big a deal over character looks. This is more about comparing story events and characterization etc.

Series wide there's 3 things.

Percy's knowledge of myths: Now this one isn't too surprising nor is it unwelcome. In the books, Percy wasn't too knowledgeable about the Greek Myths he's end up fighting. Most of the time it's Annabeth or Grover etc, who explains things to him. The most he knew was about Perseus (his name sake).

Grover's abilities to smell monsters, and empathy: This one made less sense to me to cut out. Satyrs are sent out to gather demigods, cos like monsters they can smell them. And Grover seems to be the best out of all the Satyrs at doing just that. Some spoilers for Book 3, but he finds a couple more powerful demigods there. But Satyrs can also smell monsters in the books, unless they're underground (Underground air smells like Monsters). Satyrs are also capable of detecting emotions. In fact their psychic empathy talents play a big role in Book 2 Sea of Monsters.

Demigods understanding Ancient Greek: Again another alteration that doesn't make too much sense to me. But Greek Demigods have dyslexia because their brains are hard wired to understand Ancient Greek, but in the TV series that hasn't been mentioned yet. (Fun fact but the reason Rick Riodran wrote them like that was because his son was diagnosed with the double whammy of ADHD and dyslexia as well. Knowing his son would have a difficult time learning to read, Mr Riodran read to him Classical Myths to help him learn. When he ran out of stories, his son encouraged him to make up his own, and Mr Riodran gave them those 2 learning differences so they'd be like his son).

Now I don't seem to have hit a limit yet, so lets continue on to the episodes:

Episode 1: I Accidently Vaporise My Pre-Algebra Teacher

Chapters adapted:

I accidently Vaporise My Pre-Algebra Teacher Three Old Ladies Knit The Socks of Death. Grover Unexpectedly Loses His Trousers My Mother Teaches Me Bullfighting.

BTW guys I'm British. If I typed Grover Unexpectedly Loses His Pants trust me, that would raise my eyebrows.

So the first episode is based on the first 4 chapters. Which more or less introduces Percy, and therefore you to the whacky magical world he's part of.

Now the sequence of events for both are:

Percy ends up vaporising his teacher, Mrs Dodds, aka the Fury (Or Kindly One) Alecto. He gets kicked out of his latest school, Yancy Academy. He goes back home. Goes to the beach cabin, in Montauk Long Island, NY with his Mum. Where during a storm, Grover shows up in full Satyr form and then the Minotaur shows up and chases the three of them, first in the car, then on foot when a lightning bolt blasts the car causing them to crash. Sally Jackson sacrifices herself trying to distract the Minotaur. And Percy kills it with it's own horn.

Some of the differences are:

Percy playing with Mythomagic cards. Okay I added this for laughs as in the books, Percy never played it. That was the obsession of Nico Di Angelo whose introduced in Book 3: The Titan's Curse. Though I do like that during that scene they kept the fact that Percy hates bullies with how he tried to go after some that messed with Grover. (Percy always was unpopular in schools as he befriends the outcasts).

Percy's other expulsions and odd things in childhood, which I assumed they left out for pacing, but Percy has been kicked out of every school he's ever been in. Yancy was his 6th school in as many years. Usually he got kicked out after something strange happens during a school trip, hence his nerves for the Yancy trip to the museum. Highlights from the books include: Some how blowing up his school bus with a civil war cannon, hitting the wrong lever on a catwalk, so his class got dunked into the shark tank during a visit to an aquarium. Strangling a snake in his cot at nursery, and a cyclops stalking him on a playground.

Also Percy got to keep his sword, Anaklusmos (Ancient Greek for Riptide) a lot sooner, and also isn't named in the TV series. In the TV series he was given the pen after his pencil breaks in the museum. Another side note, I love how they showed his dyslexia there, and he kept it since. But in the books, he was thrown the sword during Mrs Dodd's attack, and Chiron reclaimed it afterwards. He wouldn't give the sword properly and permanently until Percy goes on his quest.

Mrs Dodds attack is a bit different in the show as well, as she just straight up pounces Percy as soon as he accidently uses his hydrokinetic powers to pull a bully, Nancy Bobfit into the nearby fountain after taunting him telepathically (something that monsters seem able to do here). But in the books, after she witnessed it, she lures him into the museum first. Also there's no telepathy, but she just demands that Percy returns what he stolen. Percy, who of course nicked nothing and knows nothings, is confused and then terrified when Mrs Dodds' attacked, and then Chiron throws him the sword.

Also the attack happened during the spring time in the books. And was actually the start of a difficult time for Percy in school, as Chiron had tried to fool him with the Mist, like the other mortals, but Percy had started to awaken to his heritage, and could remember it. He might have accepted the fact he was hallucinating except for the fact that Grover is a terrible liar, and would flinch whenever Mrs Dodds is brought up. So Percy started picking fights and acting out in class in the books, out of the stress and fear of that incident until the headmaster expelled him near the end of term. In the tv series, it was just for shoving Nancy into the fountain, which Grover stitched him up for, so he'd get sent to Camp Half-Blood before the attacks get worse.

So the three old ladies knitting the socks of death straight up don't show up here. They show up in a later episode. But here, that's one of the reasons that Percy ditched Grover in the books. As the two of them, on the bus ride back to Manhatten, spot the Three Fates themselves. Percy, of course, doesn't know what that means, but Grover does and freaks out when Percy witnesses the Fates or Moirai (specifically Atropos) cut the thread of life. The reason for Grover freaking out is because what Percy just witnessed was an omen of death. But Grover's freaking out meant that Percy ditched him at the bus station to go home alone. Which led to the following events.

So coming home, not much difference there, except Smelly Gabe is definitely unemployed and earns through online gambling, instead of being a manager of an electronics store and not going to work. Also Sally Jackson is more explicit in standing up to him. In the books although she's still stubborn (she does keep her maiden name in both) but she charms and persuades Smelly Gabe.

Not much changes about the Minotaur attack. The storm in the books arrives in the night as a freak hurricane, which was mentioned a few times as a series of odd weather phenomena that mortals noticed but was due to the fighting between Zeus and Poseidon. And Sally wasn't planning on sending Percy to Camp Half-Blood just yet, she was considering whether or not to try another boarding school as sending Percy to camp might mean she'll never see him again. In the TV series, she obviously was and Grover's arrival was a surprise to her as he came EARLY. But other than that the chase sequence plays out the same until the crash, as Grover was knocked out in the books. So he got to witness the fight, first between Sally and the Minotaur, and then Percy killing it. But in the books, Percy didn't have a weapon. The storm had boosted his strength so he could break the horn straight off, and use it to stab the monster. In the TV series he uses the sword first, then the horn. Finally in the aftermath in the books, Percy dragged the unconscious Grover to the Big House in camp. In the TV series, the campers came out to find him and Grover collapsed on the ground.

I hope you all enjoyed this Blog Post. I'll cover the other episodes soon.

LoZ - Goddess of the Sand

The Goddess of the Sand's true name is Geladïna.

The Gerudo only know her as Gela, while Hyruleans call her Din, the Golden Goddess of Power. No mortal is aware that they are the same entity.

In Gerudo, her titles would be the Goddess of the Sand (al'Geru'è Vallah). Or, in the case of using her name, Vah Gela.

She is also sometimes referred to as Our Holy Mother (Vah'maween) by the especially religious & devout as she is said to have created the Gerudo in her Holy Garden (Devï'forzabzï) in the Oasis of the Gods (al'Vahlïen'è Wahē) when she infused her power into a flower having wished to bless it with her fire & passion. She infused it with too much, causing it to grow large & bloom almost immediately & from it came the 1st Gerudo. The flower from which they came bears great resemblance to a Flame Lily & which I'm calling a Passion Lily (Fashïna'dàrra). Which has become a sacred flower among the Gerudo.

(She actually has no true power over plants. Gardening is just something she very much enjoys.)

This is why the Gerudo are referred to as the "Flowers of the Desert" (al'Geràsht'è Forzuen).

Aside from being the Goddess of Sand, she is also associated with power, battle, fire, lightning, sand, earth, hardship, the forge, gemstones, treasure, jewelry, the seasons, passion, & dance.

She is the daughter of Vah Sāqmàla, the Gerudo Goddess of Life's Pleasures, her domains being life, vivifatility (pertaining to both fertility & virility; this is a word I made up), flowers, fruits, springtime, sex & promiscuity, passion, pleasure, childbirth, & Vaen. Geladïna is also the younger sister of Vah Amàhrta, the Gerudo Goddess of the Moon, her domains being the moon, mirrors, dreams, illusions, & prophecy.

Gela was once married to Voh Jawàrik, who himself is the Gerudo god of war, conquest, strife, responsibility, &, eventually, hardwon wisdom.

Geladïna & Jawàrik's marriage, unfortunately, fell through having become sexless as he is a war god in one of the pantheons of the home continent of the Gerudo. And the Gerudo's home country became cursed to be in eternal conflict with its neighbors, thus he was always away & always in battle, very rarely able to be together with his wife. It wasn't that he didn't care, but he had responsibilities as the god of war to protect the Gerudo homeland & there was nothing he could do about it.

As such, they annulled their marriage before anyone could do anything unfaithful. It was only after which that Geladïna began to gather her Vo'màzren.

Gela is known to have many mortal concubini (plural of concubinus), a.k.a. male concubines (Vo'màzren) with which she had daughters. Her concubini were known as the al'Shôsi'úl Vo'màzren or the Blessed Concubini. Not gods themselves, rather born mortal Gerudo men, they were granted unaging life, but without power, so that they could serve their beloved goddess for as long as she willed it. It was an offer, BTW, which they chose to accept. There were others that she'd asked, but they'd all turned her down. Consent is key, ya'll.

However, keep in mind that they were never whores or escorts. In fact, most came from before the female-only curse as a result of the Division War (al'Manfàsï Wàru; also called the Great Castration, not in a literal sense, more so metaphorically) & were Priests of the Sand (Gàl'è Vo'eshônïen), while others were a couple of the Centennial Kings (Mafzīnàla Voe'attàren) from after & were simply devoted worshipers of hers who never married.

Moving on, one of many names the Gerudo's home continent has been given is the Far-Off Wasteland (Baydaan Qàfra), a continent of mostly desert countries interspersed with oases, savannas, & jungles. Baydaan had once been entirely separate from the continent of Hyland back in the time of Demise's sealing.

Anyway, the 2 continents have since become connected by what was once known as the Lanayru Sea, now the Gerudo Desert. (Much like how North America is connected to South America via Mexico.)

(Just for reference, Baydaan is also populated by humans, Zuna, & other races.)

The little country that the Gerudo hail from is known as Jïasïd within the Ûjïa Desert (known in the games as the Desert of Mystery). At the heart of Jïasïd lays a large oasis, really more of a small jungle. At the center of this jungle is a sheer, unscalable mountain & floating high above the peak is an island suspended purely through magical means without technological aid. This island is known as the Oasis of the Gods (al'Vahlïen'è Wahē) & is said to be where the gods of the Gerudo pantheon dwell. It is also said to be a verdant paradise. However, very rarely are mortals allowed to enter. The ones that are tend to be the exception that proves the rule. And are always devout worshipers, demi-deities, the greatest of Gerudo heroes, or in rare cases, theives wishing to steal from the gods. From the edge of the island is a waterfall which is what allows the surrounding jungle to flourish in such a parched land.

The Gerudo here are much like what the Hylians are to Hyrule, being Geladïna's chosen people.

Anyway, as mentioned above, their small country had been cursed to be in eternal strife against its neighbors. As a result, Voh Jawàrik is constantly in battle with the other countries' gods of war. These countries are often referred to as al'Wàru'shorq Vōttàrilàkaen (the Wartorn Kingdoms), which is used to refer to Jïasïd & its surrounding countries.

But, before the war struck out, Jawàrik & Geladïna managed to have 1 son, Gàlondo, who Jawàrik later took with him to train for war once they discovered that he had inherited his father's war domain at the godly equivalent to 13.

Voh Gàlondo eventually became a god of war, power, conquest, fire, lightning, specifically dry lightningstorms, pride, destruction, bloodlust, black magic, & the burning desert sun. Often associated with Gàl'gáron, or the Gerudo hells.

Gàlondo later came back as an adult & was tasked with being the patron deity of the newly created &, as of then, unnamed country of Hyrule. After that, things get fuzzy as far as myth. As far as any mortal at the time knows, Gàlondo was the patron of the land, then suddenly, there was the Bringer of Demise. No mortal knows what happened to the old patron afterwards.

(Not even a handful of the lesser gods know this, but Gàlondo grew drunk with the power that came with being the essential king of the gods of an entire pantheon & the control that such a position comes with, with no former training. He had always been under the strict rule of his father before then, but he had not been properly prepared via emotional disciplining for the position as it was given at sudden notice. He had always been cocky, arrogant, snobbish, & lusted for power much like his father tended to. However, Jawàrik had such tendencies firmly under lock & key. Yes, he is bloodthirsty & power hungry, but he is also dedicated to those who worship him.)

(This, when paired with the fact that Gàlondo had grown to see things like personal responsibility, duty, & compassion as things that held his father back from his full potential as a god of war, as well as the trauma from constant war through a formidable & malleable age, resulted in a deep & abiding desire for power & control as well as a terrifying, insatiable bloodlust. This, plus having only ever known war & conflict with only vague memories of peace as well as having developed a general distain for mortals in-general, messed the kid up. Resulting in him abusing his power & eventually, after stealing one of the fruit from the Mother Tree of Life & eating it in an attempt to gain even more power which resulted in him losing his godhood, being cast out of the Hyrulean pantheon, & becoming an arch-demon called the Bringer of Demise or the Demon King in a similar way to how angels who disobey God fall from grace & are cast out of heaven. The desert sun was eclipsed & darkness reigned inside his heart, his mind, & his very soul.)

—

Jïasïd was actually one small corner of a vast sandy plain more than double the size of Hyrule at the time of BotW & TotK, that the ancient Gerudo tribe traveled.

Back then, they were warlike & nomadic, journeying across their desert home conquering other tribes that dwelled within its boundaries as well as a few just beyond their border. The reason being because of the eternal war in their old home making it nearly uninhabitable.

They regularly did this to take slaves & other important resources.

It is from Jawàrik, & was further reinforced by Gàlondo later, that the ancient Gerudo belief of Nīkôzeto'reqra came to be. The word loosely translates to conquest, but means something more along the lines of the "Right to Victory." Nīkôzeto'reqra was sort of the Gerudo's equivalent to the real world concept of "Might Makes Right" or the Chinese philosophy of the "Mandate of Heaven."

The idea being that the one who is strong, who is victorious, is right & righteous. That those who win have a divine right to rule & a right to do whatever they please to those they conquer.

Since losing his son to the ideal, Jawàrik had innitially lost his youthful passion for such a belief system & after the Gerudo, his worshipers, were so severely cursed for their arrogance as a result of such a belief, he has forsaken the philosophy entirely.

As such, he has recently become a figure of hard-won wisdom to the Gerudo still living in Baydaan, as he now decries senseless battle even as he continues on in his senseless war that he wishes would just. STOP!!

In some ways, he's even begun to resent his role as he sees it as having taken his family from him.

He is... just a very sad figure in Gerudàn mythos.

---

Interestingly, as a child, Gàlondo had been best friends with the Hyrulean goddess, Karina; he even had a crush on her for a very long time. She was the eldest daughter of Farore. Katrina has been since embraced by the Gerudo culture, being named Vah Kàvtrïna, the goddess of love & passion, who now also rules over tender sexual relations (specifically between those who are in love), femininity, fidelity/pudicity & faithfulness, righteous retribution, as well as healthy relationships, bravery, music, the hearth, beauty, the moon, the truth, balance, nature (especially flowers, fruit, the seashore, & the waves that pound against it) & the hunt, the home, hospitality, food/cooking, soulmates (specifically, the bond between soulmates), & is known to be a defender/protector of children & abuse/rape victims regardless of their sex. She has since also discovered power over the domains of weddings, marriage, vivifatility, childbirth, & motherhood.

Back then, Geldïna & Farore often talked excitedly about the possibility of becoming real sisters through their children.

However, since coming back from the endless war, Gàlondo had become a being of overbearing misapplied Machismo in all the worst ways & Karina did not appreciate it.

Then, after becoming the Bringer of Demise & being poisoned by his own On'nen (resentment, grudge, hatred, ect), his genuine affection for her that was masked by pride was turned into a toxic, yandere-esque lust & obsession. The sort that cared not for love, rather wanting to possess her like a trophy. However, Karina scorned his attempts at tempting her into his bed & even defeated him in battle once using strategy. Which just made him want to possess her ever more & desire to punish the humiliation.

However, he never got the chance to make her his before he was sealed.

---

Gàlondo's fall from grace had broken Geladïna's heart, but his sealing & eventual death had nearly killed her.

She never gets over the guilt she feels at having created Din's Fire, but she'd also felt responsible for having not raised him to be better prepared for his role.

Which is something that she & her ex often commiserate mournfully over.

They both believe deep in their souls that they failed their boy.

Despite having annulled their marriage, it wasn't done out of any sort of hate or disagreement or even due to a lack of love. As such, they actually get along very well.

However, because they never grew out of love with each other, they both often find themselves missing their marriage. They still believe that annulment was the correct decision for their family, but they hate the circumstances that called for it. Despise the curse upon the land that has caused Jawàrik to stay away. And hate it for twisting their boy so.

Jawàrik especially feels responsible as it'd been his job to teach the boy all those years & his personal failure resulted in losing his son.

He may never forgive himself.

lol, i need to ramble.

i remember after watching the film for the first time in theatres, i had my thoughts on certain scenes, of course, but i was in such a high of how much i love louis, that it took me a couple of days to let it marinate and then i started to get angrier and angrier.

the only fan that came close to saying something to explain WHY we're all so insanely in love with louis was the one in the bonus scene in doncaster with the pride flag wrapped around their shoulders. the rest of the fans talking at the camera kept saying how many days they were there camping, how many flights and buses they took (miles away from their countries and making it sound like complaints), how "crazy" fans in a continent that is not theirs are, and not once they mentioned WHY they were doing all of this. heck, we got more reasons on the red carpet today when zach was pushing people to tell him why did we feel the need to be there, why did we love louis so much.

and i wish we saw less fans talking in general. just because fandom is fandom, and we all have so many different views about things and we all have so many different lives, that it then just feels like we're all bundled up in the same group when it's sooo far away from reality. but if we're gonna have fans talking, then maybe have them talk less about the camping (because that creates even more problems in the future (and i'm not against it at all btw, i've done it myself)), about the hundreds of flights and buses they took, about all the vinyls they bought (this was on the red carpet today, so not controlled)... because it's SO NOT about any of that. at least for me, it isn't.

i'm not gonna speak for everyone, but i know some people will relate. i am here, for louis, because he's the most admirable and resilient person i know of. because he understands the privilege he has, but inside that privilege he was not taken seriously for many reasons, and he decided to create a path for himself, and i think that's incredible. he could have easily turned out to be a bitter and resentful person, and instead he is kindness personified. the way he treats the people around him is proof enough. i'm here because i've never felt this safe in an environment before, and i found incredible people because of him, and we're all different, but we're all the same as well, and just- there's so much more to loving louis than going to 183713 shows just to say that you did, but i guess the question is, WHY do you go to so many shows (if they're all the same, as some irl would put it)? first, have you heard his voice? second... well, because louis' energy is off the charts once it hits you. because once you can tell that you're the same as him, there's this powerful emotion and need to be close to him, to be there for him, to support him, to make sure that it's not a solo song anymore, to be with people that feel the same way as me. because his music resonates so deeply within me in ways no other music does. because he's so genuinely grateful for our loyalty and love that you can feel that in the air at his shows. because he needs us, and we need him. and that is just not a phrase he felt like saying out of nowhere, and even if his managers and everyone around him are repeating it and it loses some of its original meaning... it all started in his first show of 2022 after seeing a sea of pride flags in the crowd. he went on to say this for a few shows, and in some others he added how "PROTECTED" we make him feel. and like, how do you, as a fan, feel when you have that sort of responsibility in a way... it's all very overwhelming to me, because that's a shit ton of love i have for him that i keep reaching capacity on, but i am so extremely happy and proud to be his fan.

and that's on my WHY.

#raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamble toooooown #sorry whatever keep scrolling #i just needed to dump somewhere and my server has read some of this in a way or another so yeah

[explosionshark]

i am about to go spend 4 mandatory days with my family so i went back through to make sure i didn't miss your book recommendation post. it looks like you haven't made it yet and NO RUSH and also NO PRESSURE but i AM looking forward to it and invested. thank u for your time

Expediting this list FOR YOU, SHANNON ❤️

These are unranked btw. A single tier that is "this was good so you should read it"

Even Though I Knew the End by CL Polk - this novella feels almost like it was cooked up in a lab specifically to appeal to me. I love 40s noir, I love urban fantasy, I love sapphic romance. This book delivers on all fronts. It follows a freelance magician as she investigates a series of brutal supernatural murders that have been plaguing Chicago. If she can find out who's behind the killings she can save lives - including her own. Aside from the great noir detective angle and the fun magic system, there's a beautiful romance at the core. If you read this and you like it, you should definitely also check out P Djeli Clark's Dead Djinn series of books for more stories in a similar vein.

Elder Race by Adrian Tchaikovsky - another novella! This one's not gay, but it's got a great science fantasy premise. At what point is technology indistinguishable from magic? How much difference does it make? This story is a dual narrative - half of it follows the daughter of a royal so low down the succession chain that she's functionally useless embarking on a half mad quest to track down the ancient wizard of folk legends and secure his help in protecting her family's lands against attacks by monsters. The other half follows an anthropologist, the lone survivor of a research team dispatched to a backwater planet centuries ago, struggling to find a sense of purpose in his lonely existence, while the terms of his placement on the planet forbid him from engaging in the lives of the civilization he was sent to observe. Very fun and a brisk read.

Our Wives Under the Sea by Julia Armfield - this one's quite different in tone. It's a quiet, contemplative romantic drama about a married couple who planned to spend their whole lives together, slipping away from each other after a traumatic event. It's also a cosmic horror novel about the ocean - its secrets, its power, its ability to transform. Beautifully written but slow paced - if reading about the minutae of the relationship between two British lesbians and also Lovecraftian body horror both hold equal appeal to you as subject matter, it's a book you'll adore.

Echo by Thomas Olde Heuvelt - speaking of relationship issues! This one's gay and haunted in the other direction. It follows a couple after one of them suffers a horrible accident while mountain climbing and comes back different. I'm not sure how much you like scary books, Shannon - I'd say this one is scarier than Our Wives, but not like super terrifying. It's got some amazing ideas though - genuinely the most original haunting/possession story I've read in years.

The Blacktongue Thief by Christopher Buehlman - this was SO much fun. I've struggled reading fantasy this year - I keep starting books and not finishing them. This is the title that finally broke my fantasy slump. It's easy to read, fast paced and not overly dense, with an interesting world and lore that's constantly fleshed out throughout the whole run of the book. Also, god, it was so refreshing to read a sword and sorcery fantasy book with wizards and goblins and shit and just have it be full of women? And the author isn't weird about it? It's narrated by a male character in the vein of the classic Irish trickster hero, but the supporting cast are mostly women. A scrappy apprentice witch, a stoic raven knight with magic tattoos, a magic assassin, a witch queen in exile who has to be restored to the thrown that was stolen from her - it's all happening! Honestly adored this book. Can't wait for the next entries in the series.

Mistakes Were Made by Meryl Wilsner - okay this is not gonna be for everyone. It's also the only straight up romance on the list - in my defense, I haven't read many this year. This is a book about what if you were a college senior moping about on your school's family weekend and you hook up with a hot older chick about it and then the next morning you find out your one night stand is actually your best friend's mom. No wait, keep reading! I actually found this book to have way less of the conflict you'd expect - there was some of the obvious friction, the conflict of interest, the secrecy demanded by the premise but the romance itself was very kind, sweet, generous, once it got going. This one is also very smutty. If a romance sounds appealing but this premise is a no-go, you might want to check out Meryl Wilsner's other book Something To Talk About! I'm very picky with romance, but they're two for two with me.

Good luck! Happy reading!

[theetherealraphael]

Hi everyone. As you may or may not know, I am a Sea Cadet. It's a pretty big part of my life, and I tend to go away on courses. Generally band ones, as my unit is lucky enough to have a band, but most recently, a catering one. 7 people from my unit, myself included went to that place, most for seamanship, one catering, one first aid. 6 people went back. You want to know why? Because someone abused their power, and sent one of my best friends home. Because he had a multi-tool, that happened to have a blade in it. He didn't use it, although he did use the plyers once. I won't go too into detail, as it's not my story to share, but this isn't the first case of bullying to my unit, in a couple cases FROM my unit. It's happened to me, my brother (who is a junior BTW), my best friend and a kid who transferred over from ANOTHER unit to escape this bullying. So, I'm going to explain what happened to me, and why I now find it harder to make friends on courses.

My first course

So, it was my first ever course, at HMS Raleigh, where you go for stage one of joining the navy. You have to march just to get food lol. One of the girls in my mess was from my unit, let's call her H. We were a couple of the first ones there, so I got top bunk, she got bottom. She eventually moved, though. We then went exploring, as this was my first time there, and H seemed just as lost. Eventually we headed back to our mess, and there was a couple new girls, and the people who were there previously were gone. We talked about how bitchy the 4 who were there first seemed. Skip to later that day, it was almost night, and I was feeling horribly left out. I ended up crying and I called my mum, but this wasn't the last of it. One girl, L, ended up admitting in a later course that she didn't like me, but I already knew that by how she'd treated me. I ended up crying to my mum at least once more, and called her every night anyway. Now it's tradition to do that, mainly so I can check up on my little siblings, and hear what they've been doing.

Conclusion

So, yeah. That's not the only instance of bullying, and I left out quite a few details due to me still being a bit upset over it, but yeah, bullying, even accidental bullying, isn't okay. It made me cry, my brother mad, got my best friend kicked out of a course, and had that other kids expensive watch broken. So please, be careful what you say, don't tease someone for things long past, be careful what you tell your parents and don't break other people's stuff. Please, reblog this, spread the message. I don't care if you're a Sea Cadet or not, you don't even have to know what Sea Cadets is! But we all know what bullying is. Please. Don't let this carry on.

Music Analysis: Strawberry Letter 23

In S2E1: the wedding scene that Blackbeard crashes

whoever picked the music is a fucking genius

Look at these freaking lyrics!!!!

(Btw, I’m not good at writing English papers, so this is a very messy up summary of what I think)

-

“Hello my love, I heard a kiss from you

Red magic satin playing near, too”

Red magic satin

Like the red silk that Ed has that reminds him of Stede

-

“All through the morning rain I gaze, the sun doesn't shine

Rainbows and waterfalls run through my mind”

He’s sad and in a depression. Only sees the rain.

At morning where new beginnings are supposed to be a thing, but it’s only rain. The new Blackbeard is dark sad.

Rainbows run through his mind

Gay thoughts. Lol

-

“In the garden, I see

West purple shower bells and tea”

PURPLE

ed always wore purple whenever he was most himself

Purple symbolizes royalty, nobility, luxury, power, and ambition.

He’s being able to be fancy like he always wanted. Stedes helping him get there.

He wears fine things well :,)

-

“If you arrive and don't see me

I'm going to be with my baby

I am free, flying in her arms

Over the sea”

Dude… wow this.

He wants to be free. Free to be himself living with Stede on the sea. He wanted to run away with him.

-

“With velvet roses diggin'

Freedom flight”

Freedom motif again

Roses romantic symbolism stuff

-

When I searched the real meaning of this song irl, it said that this song is about a couple exchanging love letters. This is the 22nd love letter and it’s his reply to his love. The writer of the song said he wrote this to express his romantic feelings for his girlfriend. The title indicates hopes for another letter.

The lyrics imagery paint the innocence of love. Also, during Bible times, strawberries were symbols of sweetness, love, and beauty.

How Likely are you to Survive Each Netherworld in Disgaea?

((Basically what the title says, dood. I decided to make this my first discussion for the new year (Happy New Year BTW) mainly because this is something that’s been on my mind for a couple of years honestly. In fact, I planned to make this post before Disgaea 6 was even announced, but never got around to it, so why not make up for it now? For this, I’m only going to talk about Netherworlds that have been at least mentioned or featured in the Disgaea series, and not any Netherworld from any other NIS titles like Makai Kingdom or Guided Fate Paradox. I’m also excluding Veldime from this list as it started off as a human world and even before the curse spread out, we do know that humans and demons coexist with each other on the planet, so that’s technically cheating. The only real issue you might have with Veldime is the fact that it’s a famous tourist spot, meaning that there’s still a chance you might run into some asshole who’s on vacation.

1. Let’s start off with the Netherworld Laharl resides in. It doesn’t have an official name, it’s just referred to as “The Netherworld” or “Laharl’s Netherworld” mainly because it’s the first we’ve ever seen in the series. Now, I’m not going to talk about any issues of whether or not you can actually breathe in the Netherworld, especially considering that people like Gordon and Jennifer can move around just fine in it even though they’re more powerful than an average human. I’m also ignoring whether or not you can actually find something to eat because as long as you have some sort of income, you can buy any food you want from RosenQueen, which is a multiversal brand that even have stuff that you can find in a regular store like gum, pizza, ect. Finally, before anyone brings up zombies, let me remind you that it is confirmed that the zombies in the series are incapable of turning people into one of them. At worst, you’ll suffer some sort of ailment, most likely poison, if bitten by one, but it’s easily treatable as you can get antidotes in the form of pixie dust at a VERY cheap price from RosenQueen. Unfortunately, there ARE other problems with this Netherworld, starting off with the residents. While not everyone’s an asshole, you are still about as lucky to find one as you are on Earth and unlike what other people might say, I’m not giving us the luxury of being as powerful as someone like Fuka Kazamatsuri or Sapphire Rhodonite. I’m talking real life average joe here. This makes us weaker than prinnies as prinnies are even capable of at least blowing up islands on their own. So yeah, fighting is not something that will end well for you. Like I said, not every demon is out for blood and are also likely to find some that are willing to befriend and even protect you. You also gotta be considerate of where you want to live in this Netherworld as this has places like the Sea of Gehenna, which is filled with magma (getting even close to magma is enough for a human to be set ablaze), the Lunar Snowfield which is so cold, it can freeze the blood underneath your skin (which is around 31 degrees F so it might not be a problem if you like in Chicago or something,) and the Stellar Graveyard which isn’t really all that special until you remember that most of the things that fell from outer space crash land in that area, including alien ships. Even ignoring all that, there are still natural disasters to worry about, and no I’m not talking about the disasters Krichevskoy caused when he’s in a mood. As Laharl and Etna pointed out during the EDF invasion, Earthquakes do actually occur in the Netherworld, but they’re rare. The problem isn’t the earthquakes themselves, but what comes afterward as Laharl stated that big disasters always tend to happen right after an earthquake. On Earth, the quakes would likely trigger something like a Tsunami but we don’t really see many bodies of water in the Netherworld, unless if the Tsunamis are formed by lava or something. I think it’s more like how hail works here on earth. Hail can be seen as a warning sign for severe weather like thunderstorms or tornadoes, though it’s only rare of it being the case and even then it’s usually only large hail that you really need to look out for. We never see what type of severe weather the Netherworld would have, but considering the place we’re talking about, I wouldn’t be surprised it end up being something like knife storms from Adventure Time. Overall, I would rate the survivability of this Netherworld to be...possible. Not guaranteed, but not the worst option either.

2. Next up is the Nether Institute: Evil Academy. Fortunately, you don’t have to worry too much about running into unfriendly demons here, mainly because everyone’s pretty lazy. Except for Mr. Champloo and his students, but they’re not bad people to be around, just don’t challenge them to a cooking battle and you’ll be fine. Really the only thing you should be worried about is a source of income because ever since Mao took over, you’re probably going to have to start worrying about your tuition and for those who don’t think Mao won’t collect money from you as you’ll be seen as an honor student, keep in mind that this is the same guy who extorted money from his own prinnies in the beginning of the game. That and the fact that all teachers and staff get benefits practically shoved down their throats, really banking on how things work there are the exact opposite of schools in our world. The cash for all that stuff gotta come somewhere and not everyone has time for item world grinding. And don’t think you’ll be able to be accepted into the academy as a teacher yourself. After Mao took over, they practically raised the bar for new teachers to impossible levels. You know it’s bad when even Tyrant Baal failed the exam and only got accepted because of his title. If you do manage to make some form of income though, you should be good as staying home and ditching classes is highly encouraged by the school (as long as you’re not taking Raspberyl’s class).

3. Hades. Short answer, no. Medium answer, No! No! No! Hell no! Absolutely not! Long answer, the fact that you are a human automatically negates any possibility to surviving in this Netherworld and that’s for one reason. As a human, you are a supply of fear energy, which is something demons in this world are currently lacking, meaning that you are a HUGE target. Yeah, the inmates are locked up, but the guards and staff can roam freely and like I said, you are an average joe and not a secret hero like Almaz and no access to any of the bio suits that you see in Disgaea 4. Fighting back is not an option and since it’s a demon’s job to scare humans, no one’s going to get charged for torturing you and squeezing every drop of fear energy they can get. Oh, ask Artina to protect you while you’re down there? No. She’s only one angel and has her priorities to both Celestia and the Hades party. She can’t be around you 24/7 even if you’re paying her. Plus she’ll charge you even more if you get injured in exchange for healing you...if you don’t die. Unless if you somehow managed to become a member of the Hades party yourself, you can kiss any chance of surviving this place goodbye.

4. Cryo Blood. Yeah, we’ve never actually seen Killia’s home Netherworld, but he does talk enough about it to give us an idea on what it’s like and well...to put it simply you’d have a better shot surviving in Hades. We can pretty much figure by the name alone that it’s going to be extremely cold, which is not a great start, but once again the residents are what ultimately kills any hope of living here. As I stated before in other posts, this is the “Black Air Forces” Netherworld, where only the lowest of the low can thrive. You need to be powerful, ruthless, merciless, ect. just for a chance to making it out alive as brutality and backstabbing is rampant here. Basically you need to be like Guts from Berserk. This is likely a Disgaea version of the final circle of Hell depicted in Dante’s Inferno, so you know it’s not a pleasant place. Even Killia only became the overlord of the Netherworld back when he was Killidia on a technicality because the previous overlord suddenly vanished one day without a trace.

5. Flowerful. At first, this place would seem similar to Veldime considering the greenery. I mean it’s in the name so as long as you have a green thumb, surviving here won’t be an issue, especially if you have access to Lieze flowers. The Lieze flowers can only grow in this Netherworld and even Seraphina pointed out that as a result, you could probably be able to make bank selling these off to other Netherworlds, and while Seraphina is spoiled, she understands the value of a dollar and knows a thing or two about business. After all, we are talking about the same woman who managed to make all of Gorgeous’s money back within a year after they declared bankruptcy. The only problem with this Netherworld is that unlike Veldime, there’s not really much to do here aside from living off the fat of the land. This is actually one of the least populated Netherworlds in the series so it’s great if you’re a hermit but not so much if you’re an extrovert. We also don’t know if this Netherworld have access to stuff like internet unlike Veldime, though if you find the nearest RosenQueen you might be able to figure something out. So while it is possible for you to live here, the better question is, would you really want to?

6. Scorching Flame. I think you can tell by the title alone that living here would be rather unlikely. Granted, the people there aren’t too bad, while they do enjoy a good fight and what not, they don’t exactly have the survival of the fittest mentality that Cryo Blood is known for, though it would be better if you’re strong enough to keep up with them. The problem with the Netherworld though is the extreme heat. There’s more lava flowing in this place than in Laharl’s Netherworld, meaning you’ll have to wear a protective suit 24/7 if you plan on living here otherwise you’ll combust into flames the moment you step outside your ship.

7. Toto Bunny. This is without a doubt one of the most likely survivable Netherworlds for regular humans in the series. Like in Flowerful, you can easily grow your own food if you want to and potentially sell off the huge carrots that grow there to other worlds for income. Unlike Flowerful, there are actually plenty of people there (well, after the Netherworld repopulates after Majorita’s invasion) and not only that, the residents are known pacifists. All the demons there prefer to only fight if they have to, so if you want to live in a place like Flowerful but prefer to socialize more, well Toto Bunny’s the Netherworld for you, unless if you’re allergic to rabbits.

8. Gorgeous. The Wealthiest Netherworld in the series thus far. While it was turned into a fortress during the war against The Lost, Seraphina brought it back to its glory less than a year after it was over. That being said, I imagine living here isn’t going to be cheap, so you need to make sure you have a REALLY good source of income and I doubt your haggling skills are going to work against someone who brought the wealthiest Netherworld of all from bankruptcy back to being the wealthiest again in less than a year, especially if you’re a guy that doesn’t have any strong feelings for a romantic partner as then Seraphina will be able to easily mind control you into agreeing to whatever price she has in mind. That being said, while she may be spoiled, she isn’t heartless and does sympathize with those who are less fortunate so she’ll probably be able to find you a job. In a way, she’s a bit like Scrooge McDuck, she’s fair or least tries to be.

9. Zed’s Netherworld. If you played Disgaea 6, you should already know the answer to this. Not only is this place practically a swamp even by demon standards, but practically all the residents are assholes. While it may not be as bad as Cryo Blood or even Hades, you will get picked on just because they can tell you’re weaker than them as this is what both Zed and Bieko had to suffer through their whole lives while they were staying there. So yeah, avoid this place at all costs.

10. Musical Netherworld. Have you ever wanted to live in a Disney musical? If so, this Netherworld is for you. That’s really all I can say about this place as it’s meant to be NIS’s parody on a stage play, right down to Melodia who’s practically a Disney Princess. So if you’re confident that you’d do well having your whole life be like a stage play, then you’ll be fine.

11. Let’s end things with the Magimage School of Magic. If you’re familiar with Hogwarts from Harry Potter or the Tower of Fang from Orphen, then you should already know how it goes. A school specifically for people learning how to cast spells and whatnot, but not everything is all sunshine and rainbows. Actually I think they have a lower death rate than the other two schools I mentioned which is pretty scary if you think about it. Would you survive here, probably, but this school is pretty prestigious so that doesn’t mean you won’t get kicked out if push your luck too much.

So which Netherworld would you like to live in? What type of Netherworld would you make if you had the power to do so? Feel free to let me know and once again, Happy New Year.))

It is early in the morning by the time you wake up. So early that the sun hasn’t even risen over the horizon. Over the ancient city of Athens.

Even Triton is still in bed at this time. Cocooned in a thick fluffy blanket on top of Alexander The Great—The righteous name for the Stuffed King Turtle—with pillows surrounding him like a nest. It was at times like these that you wondered if Triton was part bird, perhaps the son of a harpy, rather than aquatic.

However, that was the last thing on your mind right now. Your eyes flickered down to your phone, staring at the text messages Bella had sent you last night.

—Heyyy (y/n)💕💕! Long time no see! Thanks again for helping out with the festival again ur the best. —

—Btw I heard from the rumor mill that u have a son. Why don’t u bring him along for the festival tomorrow? We can watch him quickly during ur shift and then you can have fun with him after. —

—There is also going to be cotton candy and fireworks! It will be lots of fun for the kiddo 😉😙.—

Letting out a sigh, you rub your aching temples, already feeling a headache coming on. You knew Bella meant no harm, she really is just a playful airhead at heart after all. But, it didn’t reassure the fact that it sounded like the whole school by now has found out you have a kid. Which didn’t please you in the slightest.

Especially since some of your classmates can be as toxic as snakes. You didn’t want to bring Triton anywhere around people like them.

Then again, it wasn’t like Triton couldn’t handle himself, he was more than capable after all. You found this out the hard way after he picked up a Boulder twice his size yesterday like it was nothing.

It would also be nice for the boy to have some fun for once instead of staying inside all day. Today was going to be sunny and nice out. A perfect day to play and go outside.

Decisions. Decisions.

“…Mom?”

At the call, You peel your eyes away from the screen to look over. Triton had already scurried out of his nest like bed in the corner of the living room by the time you looked up. His hair was tousled in every which way direction as he rubbed his eyes with sleepiness. A cute yawn left his lips before he finally opened his eyes. Their pale Ocean blue glory looking up at you.

“Good morning Triton.” You cooed at the young boy as he stumbled his way over to you on the couch. He practically collapses onto you, rubbing his face into your stomach for a couple of seconds before relaxing.

You chuckle as he mumbles a good morning in return, at least what you guessed to be, though it is hardly hearable.

It is silent after that for a few as you two take in the quiet morning atmosphere. The birds chirped from the window and you could even hear the soft sounds of footsteps from your neighbors above. The world was slowly waking up.

However, as much as you wanted to stay there for longer and relax, the alarm on your phone dings. A painful reminder that you should start getting ready for the festival.

Groaning, you attempt to peel Triton off of you so you could get up but the boy doesn’t budge. You attempt a couple of more times but after hearing a small giggle from said boy, you give up.

Shuffling up from your spot, you stand up but still Triton doesn’t budge. His knees drag on the ground slightly as he falls off the couch but he recovers quite quickly by using some of his powers. Making himself float effortlessly in the air as he stays latched onto you.

You let out a small sigh but don’t care to stop the boy. Instead making your way to your room so you could finally get ready.

As soon as you enter your room however, the peace doesn’t last long as after you tell him how he has to get out so you could get changed, Triton is forcibly thrown out of your room with a pout on his face.

“Mommmm!”

Triton leans against your door with a whine. Already missing your presence even though he knows it hasn’t been that long. He stares at the door handle in temptation but frowns as he knows he shouldn’t. That he should respect your privacy as you get ready.

“Mommmmmmm!”

“Triton, please! I’ll be out in a few!”

—.—.—.—.—

You wondered if you should have asked Zeus more about aquatic gods. Especially in a time like this.

“Triton… Sweetheart? I need you to let go of my leg so I can walk.”

“B-but—“ Triton stutters out, his grip on your leg tightening as the bus begins to screech to a halting stop. You weren’t sure what was up with him but he was very clingy today. He wouldn’t take no for an answer when you told him to stay home today. Forcing you to bring him along.

You seriously wondered if today was something special that was making him act so strange. Perhaps something that pertains to gods. Aquatic gods especially.

“You can hold my hand instead. I just can’t walk with you holding onto me in this long dress and sandals.”

Hesitantly, Triton lets go of your leg and grasps your hand. He seems content with this type of contact for now but you don’t know how long it could last. Especially when you start waiting tables. The last thing you need is Triton using his powers to spill hot tea onto customers.

“(Y/n)!”

“Oh, Bella.” You announce as said girl spots you in the crowd as you enter the festival.

“So nice to— Oh my, This must be your son!” Bella coos out, squatting down slightly to look at Triton who quickly hides behind you. “Such an adorable boy and… Oooo~ Look at how nice you are dressed up.”

Startled by Bella’s comment, you take a step backwards, “Huh?”

“Oh, don’t play coy with me. You are like the bell of the ball. The—“ As you and Bella bicker back and forth, you miss how Triton puffs his chest out at Bella’s previous words. He knew how beautiful you—His precious mother—looked right now.

You were wearing a white and blue thin silk-like dress, one that flowed as effortlessly as the waves of the sea. Bracelets, Choker, earrings, all of it was shining gold. Not even Apollo, god of the sun, glimmered with as much gold as you. Your makeup was flawless with your cheeks and lips dusted in a light red to add color to your face.

Honestly, in Triton’s opinion you were even more gorgeous than Aphrodite herself. Though, he would never say that out loud… you would be in trouble with the goddess if he did.

“Woah… Dude look…”

At the sudden voice, Triton looked over. A group of males were looking at you from afar. Clearly, mentally agreeing with Triton on how pretty you were. Though, it seemed as if they couldn’t bring up the courage to make their way over to greet you. Chickening out whenever you happen to even accidentally glance their way.

“You can look but you can never touch…” Triton snickered to himself, humming a small tune in content as you finally wave Bella goodbye and go on your way.

After a while of mingling in and around the crowded area, you finally make it to your section. It was thankfully easily spotted with all the decorations of colorful fish and blue fabrics that flowed throughout the air.

“Woah! It’s like we are underwater!” Triton awed as he looked up. “Mom, this is—“

“Ahhh! Is that your son (y/n)?”

“Wait, he's here?”

“Oh my!”

Startled, you two look over to your right as three of your classmates walk over. It seemed that you were correct when you thought that the rumor must have spread about the whole school by now.

“His name is Triton.” You explain to the girls as they looked down at said boy. Triton once again hid behind you but that didn’t do much as they still cooed and asked questions to him. Feeling bad for the poor boy, you decided at that moment it would be best to leave him in the back where more of the male staff was located so he would stop being ogled at. Though it would also sadly leave him out of your sight for a while. “Well, we have to get going for my shift. I will see you three later.”

“Of course!”

The girls smiled kindly at you before all at once cooing, “Bye Triton!”

“B-bye…” Triton stutters out, looking at them from around your leg quickly before hiding again.

“Ahhh so cute!”

“I know right!”

“My. I’m so jealous of—“

As you walk away, you wait a little for the girls to be enough ways away before looking down at Triton, “You're really shy today, Triton.”

Triton lets a smile whine out in detest and clutches onto your leg more, “You can’t blame me, mom. I’m not used to girls and affection from them. My old mom scared all the women away from the palace, remember?”

“True. True.”

Finally, after many obstacles—too many in yours and Triton’s opinion—you had made it to the tent. By the time you had got there, it was already bustling full of customers and you knew you had to hurry.

“Now this way, Triton.” You tell the young boy as you bring him to a seperate tent. Being careful not to bump into the other waiters or chefs as you lead Triton to an area in the corner with the supplies. “Mom has to wait tables for now so I need you to stay right here alright. I’ll be back soon, if you get hungry you can ask Jeremy or Paul for food.”

At the sound of their names, two of the chefs look over and wave.

“But mom…” Triton whines, upset that he has to let you go, “…Can’t you stay.”

“I’m sorry but I can’t. It will just be an hour until the actual waitress I’m covering for arrives. Then you have me for the rest of the day alright?”

Triton’s face looks unsure. Still not completely content with letting you go just yet.

“Don’t worry little man.” Triton jumps a little as Paul pats the top of his head, “Your mom won’t be gone for long. In the meantime, I know how to pass the time real fast. I can teach you how to make a mean sundae.”

“R-Really?” Triton questions out, looking worriedly back and forth between you and the male. Seeming to be struggling to fight against taking the bargain the man has given him.

“Of course, you won’t even notice time has even passed by the time mom picks you up. Now, what do you like in your sundaes?”

As Paul takes Triton away, you mouth a small thank you to your classmate before giving Triton a wave goodbye. Just as you are about to turn to walk a way, you feel a hand on your shoulder.

“Don’t worry (y/n). I’ll make sure to watch your son while you are gone.” Jeremy says, shaking his head in discontent as he remembers, “I saw how those girls were harassing the poor boy earlier.”

“Thank you so much. I promise I’ll be quick.”

“Of course don’t worry about it.”

As you leave the tent, you give Triton one last look goodbye. He wasn’t looking at you at the time as he was much to busy scooping huge chunks of oreo ice cream into his bowl. Concentrating to make sure they were stacked perfectly on top of each other.

You felt a sting of worry and doubt bubble up in your stomach as you continued to stare at Triton. Unsure if it was okay to leave him like that. But, you quickly push it away, once you see Paul right behind him. Close by to help him if needed.

Triton will be okay.

Triton will be okay.

Okay.

That’s what you kept telling yourself.

But, little did you know,…

…that wasn’t the case.

Author Note: I hope everyone enjoys this chapter. I’m sorry I left it on a cliffhanger though lol. I didn’t mean to, it just worked to break up chapter 4 and chapter 5 at this point. Anyways, other things. I’m going on vacation with my extended family next week 🎉. But don’t worry, I am going to spend tomorrow and Friday writings so you will stay have chapter 5 and 6 for next week, don’t worry :)). It’s also fitting since I’m going to the beach, Poseidon I’ll see you there 🤣🤣.

a/n: hiiiii so i decided to make this a 2in1 reaction; basically i just put together 2 of my requests that were *in my opinion* closely related. hope y’all don’t mind and enjoy!! ( ˊᵕˋ )♡.°⑅

requested by annonies: ‘Hey.. could you please do nct dream reaction to s/o having high fever and just wants cuddls? 🥺 like how would they take care of them.. make it fluffy please.’ & ‘nct dream reaction to their s/o being EXTREMELY tired and then like ummmmm cuddling and stuff maybe?? *uwuing in the distance*’

Mark Lee

okay but just imagine this (๑◕︵◕๑)

cuddle sessions when you’re both stretched thin and overworked

even though we all know he isn’t big on skinship i think he would throw all reticence out the window when it’s crystal clear that you both NEED each other ꒰๑˃͈꒳˂͈๑꒱ﾉ*ﾞ̥

so you just crawl under the bankets into his arms and you both just lay together in silence just enjoying each other’s presence

bonus points if he runs his hand through your hair and you trace shapes with the pads of your fingers on his skin (´,,•ω•,,)♡

it would probaby take a couple of lazy kisses and if you’re really really soft he might just hum some song lowly in your ear

just a lil heads up:

you ain’t getting out of his arms ‘til next morning so better hope you peed beforehand and have a bottle of water in reach (ಠ‿↼)

the only thing that would make him get up without a second thought?

if you’re feverish because of your exhaustion

his worry wouldn’t allow him to settle down until he’s 110% sure he made everything in his power to keep you comfortable 

“cold towels, water, painkillers just in case, is there anything i’m forgetting? babe, should i make you some tea-”

“mark, you know what would make me feel SO much better?”

“huh?” ｢(ﾟ<ﾟ)ﾞ??

“CUDDLES, BABE, CUDDLES!!” (╬ Ò ‸ Ó)

you don’t have to say that twice, your man is tucking you into his side in an instant flash ain’t got nothing on mark, he’s a man on a mission

he’ll try to stay awake long enough to make sure you’ve fallen asleep properly since he knows your fever won’t go away without proper rest

might hover over you the next morning too!! ( ≧Д≦)

Huang Renjun

this boy would FRET like CONSTANTLY

especially if you develop a fever 

he keeps piling up a lot of stuff in your room, anything he deems would be potentially helpful at some point is surrounding your bed

“jun, why tf is a cactus on my nightstand?” Σ(-᷅_-᷄๑)

“what if haechan walks through the door?”

“... understandable” ¯\_( ◉ 3 ◉ )_/¯

your room looks like a deposit at this point and you’ve tried to drag him to bed more times than you can count

but he’s restless ༼ ಥ ‿ ಥ ༽

until your frustration topples over and you’re on the verge of tears as you ask him for ✨cuddles ✨

he might actually feel bad for not joining you earlier so he’s gonna be EXTRA soft with you enjoy it while you can

he’s gonna pepper kisses all over you as he encases you in his lil arms and nuzzles his face into the crown of your head (っ˘з(˘⌣˘ )

he’s ready to offer free massages or head scratches!!!! LIMITED OFFER DON’T MISS OUT!!!

also he’s ready for literally anything

fever? medicine and wet towels nearby. thirst? 4 bottles of water AND gatorade. hunger? your favourite take out is waiting. any intruders? cactus is right by his hand. cuddles? CUDDLES!!!!! (۶* ‘ꆚ’)۶”

i think he’ll probably stay up even after you fell asleep, reading about how exhaustion affects one’s body and how to help i just think he’s a really wholesome person despite his all ‘don’t talk to him he angy’ character

but he’s still SO attentive to you!!

he’s down to anything that would make you feel better and if that means 20 hours of non stop cuddling so be it (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

Lee Jeno

i think he’d be REALLY clingy with you even in normal circumstances kind of like how he’s with mark ya know

so your affected well-being will just give him an extra reason to evolve to his ULTIMATE LEVEL OF PHYSICAL AFFECTION◝( ′ㅂ`)و ̑̑

he won’t let you lift A FINGER

my man is cuddling you even while standing up (灬 ♡ ω ♡ 灬)

he’s also going to insist on carrying you anywhere even if it’s just from the bed to the bathroom this boi is strong you have no excuse to shy away from him he won’t let you

you have no chance at escaping him btw his arms are made of iron when it comes to cuddles good luck prying them off you

and even though he’s clearly focusing on your requested cuddles, he’ll ask you from time to time if you need anything, how you’re feeling, if you’re comfortable

lowkey uses the excuse of checking your temperature to give you endless forehead kithes cuz he can (*＾∀ﾟ)ъ

he also becomes kind of hyperaware of every little move you make

you shiver? he’s cocooning you in yet another blanket. you’re becoming restless? he adjusts your cuddling position until you’re fully comfortable.

NOTHING gets past him ┌༼ σ ‸ σ ༽┐

idk why but i have a hunch that jeno sleeps like a rock

so if he happens to fall asleep too and you need to get up? pfft yeah sure better call for a crane to lift you up from the bed  ૮( ᵒ̌ૢꇴᵒ̌ૢ )ა｡

he’s also going to be EXTREMELY cranky if anyone dares interrupt your extended cuddle session this is strictly ‘only y/n and jeno time’

he might also entertain you with a few pictures of his cats if you’re feeling soft or ugly pictures of his members if you need a good laugh

would totally recommend leaving yourself in jeno’s care!! ♡(.◜ω◝.)♡

Lee Haechan

he would LIVE for your cuddle sessions (●♡∀♡))

despite that, he WOULDN’T STAND you being uncomfortable for a single second if he can do something against that

i think he’s the type of person who wouldn’t leave even the smallest of papercuts untreated when it comes to his partner so exhaustion? fever? yeah no. frickin. way. ┐(;Ծ⌓Ծ;)┌

and after he’s absolutely sure he has everything you might need nearby and put a cold cloth on your forehead and made sure you were hydrated and well fed

he finally climbs into bed with you and just SMOTHERS the shite outta you i’m not even kidding ꒰๑*´ᗜ`*꒱*›◡‹꒱꒱

he’s full on *leech mode*, kisses and nuzzles and gentle caresses

and best part of the package? this man is a walking spotify premium!!

you get to choose whatever song you want and switch with no ads and he has no complaints since his payment is already made in cuddles

you thought this was the end of it?? SIKE

also an entertainment king!!  ୧༼✿ ͡◕ д ◕͡ ༽୨

we all know he probably has shit on all of the members and he’s not shy to do some harmless story telling to put you in a good mood

so just imagine and try coming up with anything better

sleepy you engulfed in the sunshine himself’s arms, tightly cradled against him with his soothing honey voice murmuring and humming to you and only you ˭̡̞(◞⁎˃ᆺ˂)◞*✰

his protective side might surface too btw

no one is allowed near you and if someone somehow managed to bother you? oh hell naw  🙃

now they’re on hyuck’s black list good luck mate

his babie gets the royalty treatment in those times guaranteed

Na Jaemin

he’s a doting boyfriend either way i think we can all agree on that

but you clinging to him and asking for cuddles? you not feeling well?

yeah not on his watch mother hen in action part the sea (ﾉ･ｪ･)ﾉ

i don’t think he’d panic tho, his only struggle would be postponing the cuddles you’re asking for while he prepares something to eat and a tea and fluffs up the pillows and blankets he’s gathered (oꆤ︵ꆤo)

but once he’s done?

yeah you’re bundled in a mountain of softness and most importantly? our cuddle bug jaemin (♡ >ω< ♡)

he’ll keep you propped up against his chest while he feeds you himself, proper care is something unskippable in his agenda

but after that any cuddling position is FREE REAL ESTATE!!

anything his baby wants, his baby gets ෆ╹ .̮ ╹ෆ

but for the sake of his mental stability he’d prefer to be in a position from where he can see you

boi is too worried to let you out of his sight so he’s aiming to be the big spoon or facing you directly 三 ( ◜◡‾)っ)⁰▿⁰)

he’ll help you fall asleep in any way he can

he’ll caress your back, your arms, he’ll softly massage your neck and shoulders, he has a playlist ready for sleepy moods

he is PREPARED ٩(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و

he checks your temperature every so often and he grumbles with a pout if it doesn’t seem to be going down

but if it comes down to it he won’t hesitate to ask someone to bring some medicine and if your exhaustion and/or fever doesn’t relent he’ll insist on getting checked by a doctor

it would break his heart to see you so weak and no ammount of cuddles could repair it until he sees you up and healthy again (◕⌓◕;)

but he’ll do all the pampering in the world so don’t worry

Zhong Chenle

i think he would hesitate at first but only because he’s kinda scared he’ll only make it worse and he WOULDN’T want that ( ⚆ _ ⚆ )

eventually i guess he’d step out to call his mum for help before he pulls some bull like ‘let’s do some math it’s gonna be fun’ and you lose your shit like no thanks fam i wanna live (┛ಠДಠ)┛彡┻━┻

he’ll listen RELIGIOUSLY to his mum’s advice 

makes you some chamomile exactly how you like it, probably pulls together something small to eat but won’t force you

what he will force you to take is some medicine you ain’t dying on his watch (๑･`▱´･๑)

and most importantly... DAEGAL CUDDLES!!!! imagine getting to cuddle every nctzen’s bias

he might get *a little* jelly tho if you pay too much attention to her tho

so he makes up some dumb excuse about dog hair aggravating your fever or some dubious other reason why you have to let go of his puppy and cuddle HIM!! ೕ(•̀ᴗ•́)

he’ll do that cute thing where he leans his forehead against yours to check your temperature he has to be extra until the end

and before you go to sleep he’ll  try to prod at you to tell him what caused you to be so exhausted that you developed a fever might nag at you too about how unheathy it is to let it get to that point

he just wants to help okay? baby is worried in his own way ( •́ ∧ •̀ )

if there’s ANYTHING he can do to help consider it done by the time you wake up he’ll ALWAYS go an extra mile for you

and chenle wants to make sure you are aware of that and can lean on him so it never gets to this point again

but for the time being... it’s cuddles and relaxation time!! ✧(๑✪д✪)۶

better believe he’s already preparing a spa day for both of you to enjoy like the  ✨spicy ✨ bitches you are

Park Jisung

his heartbeat accelerates

and unfortunately it’s not because he’s flustered shame (#ﾟﾛﾟ#)

his only thought when he sees you with bag under your eyes and a cold wet cloth on your forehead is ‘shit, they’re dying wait no censor the first part i can’t get my mouth washed with soap but... poop, they’re dying’

ONE step away from calling for an ambulance or morgue in his mind

he SWEARS he’ll let you teach him how to ride a bycicle as long as you get out of this safe and sound (╬⁽⁽ ⁰ ⁾⁾ Д ⁽⁽ ⁰ ⁾⁾)

he’s a bit of a mess, but he’s your cute mess

it would take *quite* a bit of reassurance that you’re going to be fine after a good night’s sleep and some jisung time for him to somewhat relax

his cheeks will flush once he curls himself around your form no matter how many times you’ve cuddled before

but once you sigh blissfully once he wraps his arms around you, it’s game over for him ε=(｡♡ˇд ˇ♡｡）

he MELTS against you

he’ll caress your head and gently scratch your scalp, lays kisses on your cheeks/forehead/crown of your head

but he will also fret every time you toss and turn or you make any sound that seems ‘distressed’ to him

we all know he can sleep anywhere under a frickin carpet so he won’t have any problems adjusting to whatever works for you since all that matters to him atm is that you’re comfortable (♡ >ω< ♡)

he just wants you to get better faster

he’ll talk to you in a hushed voice, encouraging and praising you and assuring you that once you’re all better he’ll help you with whatever you need and EVERYTHING will be well in the end ٩(ó｡ò۶ ♡)

he’s a senstitive person so he just wants to be there for you in any shape and form he can be

Hi! can I have a The Man Who Fell to Earth Headcannon , and your just best friends with him and you teach him about birthdays?

Btw I love your blogs aesthetic!!!

A/N: aaaah sorry for taking so long in answering! this was going to be a short headcanon but i got a bit carried away hehe. Also, thank you sm 🥺 🥺 It took me a while to make it all matching and aesthetic. Anyway, i hope you like it!

BEING THOMAS JEROME BEST FRIEND AND TEACHING HIM ABOUT BIRTHDAYS

You met Thomas while working as a maid in the first hotel he stayed in when he arrived on earth. 

The first time you saw him, with his black sunglasses and sharp black suit all you could think of was that he was as lost as a fish out of the sea because how the fuck did someone like him ended up in a hellhole like this?? The hotel didn’t even give you spare soaps! The man looked like he could afford a whole ass hotel floor but well you weren’t one to judge because of appearances.

So, you were the first to go straight to him and help him with his bags (even if he insisted he didn’t need help, you were paid to do that anyway). You tried to break the ice through the whole journey but he would simply stare deadpan so you took it as a “shut-up-im-tired-please”, however, when you stopped talking, he said he liked the random-weird facts you sputter about.  So, you got to the conclusion that he was simply dry as fuck.

The first days knowing him was… well, something else. He wouldn’t crack a smile for any of your jokes (and you considered yourself hilarious, welp there goes your dream of being a stand-up comedian) and was always immersed in his world but something about him made you keep coming back to his room and spending at least 5 minutes with him. You felt as if there was just something he was hiding and curiosity always got the best of you so you set your mind to figuring what was it.

It took him a while to open up, but when he came clean about his provenance and why he had come to earth, you swore to yourself you would do anything in your power to help him out. This man -well, alien- was just looking for a way to save his planet. It also warmed your heart that he trusted you enough to tell you that. 

“You are the only person I trust here” 

“Are you serious? Aww, stop it E.T. you are making me blush!”

”E— Who?”

“Oh boy, you really gonna need some classes in pop culture” 

After you knew, this was what was bothering him, things got so much easier in your friendship, now you knew you were actually funny and the problem was him! 

He said he knew about your planet and the most relevant things about it because of T.V. FUCKING T.V. So, you made it your personal goal to teach him all you could teach about earth's popular traditions and must-do’s (man had never eaten cotton candy before!!11¿!).

Trying to teach him about the daily, normal things humans do like running errands or going sightseeing for the simple reason of watching a pretty landscape made him so confused, and for you, it was like taking care of a 5-year-old. 

He would ask about everything and when I say everything I MEAN IT. That man had no boundaries when it came to satisfying his curiosity; he would pick up everything that appeared interesting or intriguing, no matter where you were which sometimes was a pain in the ass because he really needed to stop grabbing things randomly from stores, you are banned from at least 4 near your house because of a 'steal attempt'.

"What's this?"

"Don't touch it! It's a tampon, where do you even find it? Stop grabbing things from the street!"

Yeah, sometimes it was like watching a kid trying not to get himself killed.

One day you were laying on the couch, teaching him the wonders of Jimi Hendrix when something you hadn't thought before crossed your mind.

"I never asked but when is your birthday?"

"My what?"

"Your birthday, it’s, well- when you celebrate the anniversary of the day you were born, people usually make parties or they treat it as an occasion for being self-indulgent. It’s a big thing here on earth."

"I don't think anyone on my planet has ever done anything remotely like that."

"Really? No birthdays? Well, you are here so we have to do something, with balloons and gifts. You know, compensating the ones you haven’t celebrated."

You decide to not make something too big because you didn’t want to overwhelm him. So, you plan to make a picnic and then spend the day sightseeing. At night you were going to make a small gathering with a couple of your closest friends, you knew a party wasn’t really his scene but you thought presenting him people you really cared about would acclimate him more on earth.  

When you asked him when was the day he was born, he answered that the date could not be calculated in the human calendar bc a ‘year’ represented a different amount of time than 365 days; so you stated the day he came to earth as his official birthday.

When the day came you were excited as a child with a lollipop, he just followed you around and marveled at what you showed him. 

For the picnic, you made him pancakes which you had realized was one of his favorite earth meals (he literally make it his 24/7 meal after the first time he tried it, he didn’t eat anything else in a week 😭). Then, you went sightseeing the places you noticed he had liked more.

You hadn’t told him about the plans for the night because you had wanted it to be a surprise, so when you told him that it was time to go back home (yes, you were roomies), he didn’t have a clue ab what was going to happen. When you entered your place, the whole living room was decorated with balloons and the whole atmosphere looked v aesthetically pleasant (your friends helped you decorate while you were gone), on the table was the birthday cake you had prepared for him in the morning with frost saying “HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPACEMAN XXXX YEARS” (bc u weren’t sure how old he actually was and by the floor a couple of presents.

 He was shocked. He had never celebrated anything like this before, the “holidays” he had on his planet were more formal and not personal and intimate like this. He had a hard time trying to figure his emotions but overall felt so content of having met a human like you.

“What are you waiting for, cut the cake alien boy”

And then you proceeded to smash your part of the cake into his face. 

“What? It’s tradition” And then he went and did the same, and for the first time you saw him smile for more than a couple of minutes. (he was so happy and smiley 🥺 🥺)

You spent the whole night between laughs, drinks, and karaoke.

After, the whole trying-to-launch-a-spaceship-full-of-water-to-space and the government locking him up thing, you went to visit him. They wouldn’t let you see him but you eventually did and helped him escape. 

Your birthday was close but it was the last thing in your mind, too tired and consumed with worrying about thomas safety, so it was definitely a surprise when you woke up and the breakfast was already done, a big cake (made by himself “I even made the cake look” he had said) with frosting saying “HAPPY BIRTHDAY Y/N” on top. It brought tears to your eyes and you gave him the biggest hug you could muster.

For the first time in a long while, you spent the day carefree, enjoying the presents and surprises thomas had made for you.

[jaeheewillalwaysbemyfav]

so since you're gonna do the avatar!mc au with the entities you think each brother would fear the most (SO excited for that btw, my friend can attest to the fact that i've basically been rambling about tma x om nonstop since the first post you made that put the two together), i'd love to hear your thoughts on which entity each brother would *be* an avatar of, if you're cool with sharing! personally i love the ideas of specifically vast!levi and dark!belphie but i'd love to hear your takes on the concept! <3

So because of how time works, despite receiving this ask on July 12, by the time you see this it’ll be August! So the entire Avatar!MC series should be out by now, which I hope you will/have enjoy/ed. I wholeheartedly agree with the concept of Vast! Levi, which I’ve talked about before (as you know ;) ), but I will happily ramble about it again!

These aren’t gonna be short fics though bc I do Yearn to save that energy for The Longfic, which is still in the planning stages because a) I can’t pick a timeline, and b) trying to match up the timelines of Obey Me and TMA is hard, especially when I tend to have a violent disrespect for actually paying attention to the timing of plot events in both. I already fucked up a part of the plotting because I forgot the order we get pacts with the brothers lmao

Content warnings: Mentions/allusions to tma-typical Spookies, yet another installation of my Cursed Crossover idea, lengthy debates about what makes someone choose to become an avatar of fear, spoilers for Lesson 16+ of Obey Me and S5 of TMA

What Entity Do I Think The Brothers Would Serve? (Cursed TMA x Obey Me Crossover)

Lucifer

So I put him as falling victim to the Eye/Beholding bc of his whole thing about Secrets and Pride being about wanting control over your own image

And he does have a creepy tendency in canon to always know when his brothers are up to some Dumb Shit

BUT! You know what we see in Lucifer’s character that we see in a certain Entity?

A simultaneous manipulation of others and submission to being manipulated by a higher power

That’s right, I think Luci would be a Web avatar

But Winter, Lucifer wouldn’t wanna take marching orders from someone/thing else! He’s too proud for that— You’re right! He doesn’t want to. But he will.

He willingly submitted himself and his family to Diavolo for eternity to get what he wanted (saving Lilith)

And from how much we see him work, it’s safe to say that he’s a pretty damn essential part of running the Devildom

If he really wanted to, he could probably successfully pull a coup on Diavolo

But he doesn’t, because he’s trapped himself by his own honour code

Thus, the sexual tension bromance we all know and love/insist is Deeply Problematic and blacklist (depending on how much you like/hate dialuci lol)

10/10, would fill with spiders again

Mammon

I put Mammon as falling victim to the Buried for pretty obvious reasons

But admittedly picking a fear he’d serve is trickier

I had to get a bit abstract with it, but I think the Hunt might suit him

Not necessarily the primal *cough* and police brutality *cough* parts of the Hunt tho

More like how Basira was considered an avatar of the Hunt in the fearpocalypse because of her mission/promise to Daisy

See, Greed can stem from fear

Fear of losing what you have, of no longer being able to support yourself, of being preyed upon by others

So people become greedy as a defense mechanism, to protect what they have

If they’re on the offensive, they won’t be targeted

Also, if you’re constantly pursuing more more more, there’s no time to think about anything else

Like consequences, or guilt, or Feelings

If Mammon let his little tough guy act go too far for too long, I don’t think it’s too much of a stretch to say he could start heading down the path to avatarhood

After all, people pay big money for hitmen and bounty hunters…

Leviathan

As I said last time, I can see why people would associate Levi with the Lonely first: he’s a shut in, he acts like he wants nothing to do with people/would rather be alone, and I get it

BUT! All of that actually stems from the fact that Levi has terrible self-esteem and thinks he deserves to be this gross shut in loser

While envy can make you want to bring others down to your level, so to speak, Levi tends to just shun “normies”, not actively conspire to sabotage them

He actually does crave understanding and to have people in his life, he just doesn’t know how to go about it

Boy’s got Mega Social Anxiety is what I’m saying (funny how both the Lonely and the Eye can be real bad for that, huh)

But the Vast? Nihilism? Takes all the pressure off

If everyone is a small, insignificant speck in the face of an uncaring, unfathomably large cosmos, who cares what you do? Who cares what people think of you?

Yeah, you’d be kinda weird too if you stared into the infinite abyss of the ocean and realized it was just the maw of a gargantuan sea monster too, Karen, lay off

Plus aesthetically, the great Awful Deep most people fear in the ocean is a comfort to Levi

And again, THE VAST IS MORE THAN JUST THE SKY

I WENT ON A BOAT ONCE

LIKE REAL FAR OUT, SO I COULDN’T SEE LAND FOR DAYS

IT WAS JUST ENDLESS B L U E

AND I WAS ON A CRUISE IN THE CARIBBEAN

I SAW A FRACTION OF THE OCEAN’S S U R F A C E AND IT WAS I M M E N S E

Did you know we’ve only explored like 5% or whatever of our oceans? Think about that! Every Single Thing we know about what’s in there is just the tip of the iceberg!!! GOD KNOWS WHAT’S DOWN THERE!!! PROBABLY FUCKED UP FISH IS WHAT

*ahem* anyway, fishee

Satan

Another tricky boi

I marked him down as fearing the Desolation, as a reflection of what he fears most in himself

I probably could have also gone with Slaughter, but I’d say that’s more baby/early-Satan

Desolation is also about destruction of potential, and Satan has very carefully built himself into a non-rage-monster person

So tearing that all away from him is :)))

But what would Satan give himself over to?

Ceaseless Watcher, I want that twink OBLITERATED—

Satan clings to knowledge and erudition to distance himself from the rage he was born as

“Watch and learn” is literally how he became a person

I find it deeply funny that it could also easily be how he becomes a monster once again

Also if you think the avatar of Wrath wouldn’t have a use for supernatural blackmail you’re just straight up incorrect

Couple that with Satan’s various connections and he’d be a Force to Reckon With

Asmodeus

I put him as a victim of the Corruption bc I found it extremely fitting considering the duality of his romanticized image vs the “dirty” fluid-filled nature of Lust.

Lust can be really nasty, but as licentious as Asmo’s supposed to be, he’s surprisingly coy

(now part of that comes from the fact that Obey Me isn’t strictly 18+/full-on porn, but still)

There’s a lot of Interesting Ideas to unpack there with attitudes towards sex vs sensuality and idealisation vs reality

Now as for an avatar… I debated this for a very long time, tossing around Eye, Stranger, Spiral, even Web for like one second

But I think I’ve got it

Slaughter!

Specifically the musical/random outbursts of violence side (not so much the war side)

Why? Well for one, Biblical Asmodeus is said to “"transport men into fits of madness and desire [...] with the result that they commit sin, and fall into murderous deeds (Testament of Solomon, verse 23).”

But also, Obey Me Asmo’s affair with that portrait chick from the earlier lessons started a whole ass war

Like it or not, the boy is very good at instilling manic violence in people

They don’t call it bloodlust for nothing

Beelzebub

I paired Beel with an End avatar MC bc the boy fears losing his loved ones like he lost Lilith

You could argue that Desolation would fit there too but I liked how it fit Satan better

Now as for a Vibe…

I’m tied between Flesh and Corruption tbh

Though corruption is mostly bc buge :)

So I’ll talk about the Flesh

So uh, mass consumerism, meat is meat, cannibalism… see where I’m going?

Ignoring the Hans because that was super racist, the two Flesh avatars I remember best are Jared Hopworth and The Guy Who Stuck His Arm in a Spooky Meat Grinder To Feed His Buds

I think of Jared in relation to Beel not because of the gym thing, but because his very chill/apathetic attitude towards his patron is similar to how I’d picture Beel’s approach to all this

Like “well, guess I’m here now”

I love Beel as much as everyone else, but he’s not exactly apologetic about his… habits

Not to the degree that he’d actually try and change them anyway

So if he got started on the path to Flesh avatarhood, he’d be pretty fucked

Belphegor

I put Web for him as a fear almost entirely because of the concept of Uno Reverse Card, ngl

It does technically tie into his whole thing about being trapped in the attic, since he’d denied all agency and freedom in there, but… Uno Reverse

Dark!Belphie is an interesting concept, and MAG86 “Tucked In” is iconic, but tbh I don’t really… Get the Dark

Don’t get me wrong, put me in a dark place and I will be scared, I don’t like not seeing things, but I have a hard time wrapping my head around why one would become an avatar of the Dark

It’s not a very “primary” fear imo? Like, I’m scared of the dark bc I can’t see what’s there, ie. a threat could be there and I wouldn’t know, but intellectually I know it’s just the absence of light. That’s not really spooky on its own.

I guess what I’m saying is I can attribute spookier things related to the Dark better to other Entities, so I’m not sure what its draw is specifically

According to the Entity Sexiness Survey I did a while back, there’s apparently some Catholic stuff going on with the Dark so maybe that’s why i don’t get it lmao

Anyway I’d put Belphie down for Spiral

“What lies behind a smile” indeed cowboy

Apparently it’s getting choked

Is it because MC’s entire relationship with him is originally founded on a lie?

Is it because the Spiral deals with distortions in your perception, gaslighting gatekeeping girlbossing, as well as foggy liminal mental spaces like between sleep and consciousness, death and life?

Is it because I think Belphie would absolutely delight in driving someone bananas by fucking with their dreams until it bleeds into their waking life?

Is it because being a person or consistent being at all is too much effort, consistent internal geography is hard, fuck it, just be an endless twisting series of hallways?

Yes :)

FUSHIGURO TOJI: can we get a part two of the "lessons learned" toji fic 👉🏽👈🏽 maybe him fucking and overstimulating her so hard she cries and begs for mercy but no mercy will be given. maybe he uses the same handcuffs she used for him on her 🥰 maybe some manhandling cause im a hoe for letting a man throw me around

⭐ KAGEYAMA TOBIO (fckin finally): kageyama tobio x reader fic for mutual virginity loss? maybe they just haven’t had time with him being a fancy schmancy volleyball player, maybe there’s just nerves, i don’t know! i’ll leave it up to u babe <3

⭐ SUNA RINTARO: hi!! congrats on the 2.4k HEHE just wanted to request a suna and tattoo/flower shop au? idk just the thought of tattooed suna is like. mm yes

⭐ SUNA RINTARO/AKAASHI KEIJI: hi suki!! i’m so excited for your event! so i rarely ever see someone else who loves both akaashi and suna so i was wondering if you could write something for them! maybe apocalypse au?? or roommate au?? i was thinking y/n could have a relationship/be fuck buddies with one of them and some smutty exhibitionism happens with the other watching, and then some pining that ends in a threesome if you write those! if not, then just a smutty n filthy little love triangle that you can choose an ending for lol (a happy one would be nice bc my heart can only handle so much angst, but really it’s up to you and what inspires you!!) tysm for doing this event and always working so hard <3

⭐ OIKAWA TOORU: hi i love your writing!! can i please request work au (boss oikawa x secretary fem reader?) with degradation and him fucking your in the window 😭💗💗
