#oc trope challenge

[bebx]

what are two of the hardest pills to swallow for writers and why are they “if you want to finish and post your works you have to actually write them first” and “no, you don’t like the act of writing, you just love the idea of coming up with cool plots and the idea of having written”?

thinking about the difference between whumper’s harshly and violently and carelessly throwing whumpee’s beaten up, barely conscious body onto the cold floor in their cell, and caretaker’s gently and carefully and lovingly laying whumpee’s wounded, barely conscious body on the soft mattress of their bed

Do the curator and the coordinator have a specific gender they would date or find attractiveness in?

Or are they aromantic. Ik kinda weird question, but I'm just curious 🤔

The Curator: Mortal, I've seen genders you couldn't even comprehend.

#ask the archivists #asks are open #ask blog #toh the archivists #the archivists #toh #toh oc #the owl house #id in alt text #the real answer is all my archivists are omnisexual #I identified as ace for 10 years and personally don't dig the asexual alien trope too much #like it certainly can make sense #but I enjoy the challenge of taking a species that you would logically assume is asexual and going the opposite direction #just to see how it would work

OH SNAP! HERE WE GO AGAIN! FROM THE TOP!

WHO’S OC IS IT ANYWAY!?

AHHHHHHH so me and @pazam decided to give a crack at doing a “Who’s OC is it anyway!?” challenge like I did with my other friend before!! This one was real interesting and I ended up taking some creative liberty with figuring this one out— end I ended up with a REALLY BANGER DESIGN WAIT PLEASE WHAT GHTRGR

I named her Dreamyard! She’s a bit of a mystical entity that emits a sweet incense-like smoke all around her— most notably through her nose! She’s a very dainty creature (might even be a species…?) that aimlessly floats about while leaving behind a sweet aroma in her path. Though the smoke is thick, it’s spoken to have healing properties and can help relax restless souls in desperate need of a better day! Her softer colors are pleasant to admire up close and she makes a great companion to sit down and chat to, even when she doesn’t say much all the time. Other than that, she can also be quite a goofy character when in a really good mood, twirling around in the air or trying to puff out specific shapes with her colorful smoke!

Words are not always her forte— she might make little noises in delight or sorrow, or really whatever she’s feeling at the moment, but talking aloud is limited to when she’s feeling stimulated enough to feel the need to. Other than that, she’s got a good knack for noticing little details in colors and has a… pretty scarily impressive talent in memorizing colors and their hex codes! Quite a charming specimen! Not sure how she figured that out but to each their own!

Here’s the link to Pazam’s side of the challenge!!!! She did an absolutely awesome job!!!

#Who’s OC is it Anyway!? #GENUINELY THIS DESIGN GOES HARD #I SURPRISED MYSELF SO MUCH WITH THE OUTCOME #this was REALLY fun to figure out !!!!!!! #WHY SHE SO SEAHORSE /J #(she’s not really a seahorse it’s just funny that she sorta looks like one!!! #regardless I absolutely love her to bits #Y’ALL SHOULD ALSO CHECK OUT PAZAM’S DESIGN BASED ON MY TROPES BTW #SHE FREAKIN KILLED IT WITH HER DESIGN GRAHHHH!!!! #Dreamyard #Ocs #original characters #character design #character design challenge #others ocs #The Kiwi Draws

Whump Community intro post

Hi! I'm a-whumperful-world-indeed, but you can call me Whumperful World, World, or Indeed for short. I've been around in the whump community for a while, but never made an intro post.

This is a sideblog dedicated to whump and whump-adjacent things, you'll find I mostly reblog short whump snippets or prompts but when I like a longer piece I'll rb that too!

I don't do much original writing, but if you have a request I'd be delighted to give it a shot!

I really like:

Fainting/Passing Out whump

Blood Loss

Choking/Asphyxiation

Powerlessness

Environmental Whump

Broken Bones

Stress Positions

Torture

Fever Whump

Concussions

I dislike and will not read or write:

Sexual Assault

Fingernail whump

Eye gore

Mouth whump

Pretty much anything else is in a grey area between those, and I'm okay with reading/writing them.

I try to make my blog screen-reader accessable, and will provide an image id for any whump-related post if you ask. (If you have something that you want id'd that isn't whump related, dm my accessibility sideblog @image-identified).

I have a queue of one post per day, which helps me keep older posts in circulation.

Feel free to send an ask or dm saying hi anytime! I'd love to get whump mutuals on here.

I'm not sure how to end this, but enjoy my blog I guess!

#whump community #whump intro #whump blog #whumpblr #blog intro #intro post #pinned post #I think I got my tone right which is nice #anyways. another whump trope I dislike is a bad caretaker but that encompasses so many things that I don't want to write it off #I've never done a whump challenge but I think it might be fun #Oh ALSO!!! I will draw your OCs if you give me reference images or a physical description #as well as a description of the position or situation #requests open #I hope this is all

qocc oc challenge — day three : alternate universe remix

Elizabeth Pevensie and Nerve Olwenn • The Chronicles of Narnia — “He was my first love when I was still young and innocent, a little white swan. Now everyone wonders who's the black swan out of the two.” [challenge by @nolanhollogay] — glitch tutorial

Elizabeth Pevensie had been sent to Narnia from London after her father's death, the famous King Peter, who was nowhere near royalty in London. Cancer destroyed him. Elizabeth traveled to Narnia, having heard about the world from her family, but obviously thinking it was fake. The first person she met was Nerve, a cute young man. He was kind and affectionate, they both fell for each other. Elizabeth did not understand why she was sent to Narnia, it was winter, yes, but nothing seemed to appear out of the ordinary. She couldn't save a world that was at peace, could she? Well, at least she thought it was safe. Her downfall was caressing her blonde locks. Nerve. The White Witch's son. How, unfortunate. Elizabeth gathered the Narnians and promised herself never to be that naive and trusting again. She felt betrayed, yes, but could not act on it. She had to be Queen. Her choices were fair, sometimes hard to swallow to some, but fair. She took the burden of the crown without failing and protected those who were harassed by the Usurper King, Nerve. She's the hero's daughter, she can't fail, she's good, she's the light.

But sometimes, the roles can be swapped. [Role Swap AU] And the darkness filled her lungs with disturbing ease. She was the hero's daughter. Her Crown was hers by blood and fate. She can't be the villain, her actions were justified, and her means are necessary. Right?

Both of their graves are next to each other, and the Narnians pay their respect, but they all know that the both of them are better dead, together in death than one of them on the throne. Greedy with power, surrounded by envy, they both had the same plan. Create a distraction with innocent love, the memory of theirs, and both of them had a dagger plunged into their backs. How poetic.

#c; elizabeth pevensie #univers: narnia #qocc oc challenge #glitch transition #au trope #well not exactly #both of them went back and forth on the whole light and dark path #it was so fun to play with that thin line between the two #the ending remained quite open for these two characters #still love them so much #bit rusty on the descriptions in english of their lives #don't look if there are mistakes #actually quite proud of that gifset as well #non rp related #r; elizabeth x nerve

OC Pride Challenge 2023 Week Two: LGBTQIA+ Tropes Day Eleven: Homosexual Reproduction 

Jayla Del’Tazar and Peregrine Wilson who in the future of Marvel Descendants/Descendant of Loki (owned by my friend @disneyfan50 )/Entity High, have twin daughters, being capable of doing so due to Jayla being a dragon and dragons not caring for gender when it comes to reproduction. 

#opc2023 #oc pride challenge 2023 #oc pride challenge #marvel descendants #entity high #jayla del'tazar #peregrine wilson #(before anyone asks #jayla is a dragon in the sense of still being able to shift forms #as she can take human or dragon or just dragon wings forms #but dragons dont really care for gender when it comes to kids #hence them matching this trope in the future based stuff)

Day 1; Favorite OC oc-tober time

I physically can't just pick one, so instead I will show you my favorite oc trio

they are very precious to me, I cannot go a single day without daydreaming about at least one of them

their storyline is very complicated but basically they all kinda??? share the same father figure?? except that the father figure (gregory) is cal's actual biological father that left him along with his sister and mom when he was really young because the government basically told him to lay low in another country, leaving his family behind and all that, so calyun decided to become an assassin because money and blah blah blah after he killed all the staff (yup all of them) of his organization he's just trying to live his life then there's aaron and quinn who was part of the same organization as cal, but then after cal, yk, killed everyone and announced to all the assassins to escape, they were discovered by gregory who kind of adopts them and when the inevitable thing happens and calyun discovers gregory too things gets messy and yeah I haven't figured out exactly how it all happens after that

also putting it here because idk where else to insert it, but cal didn't go rogue to do all that, he did it because the 'staff' killed his mom and almost killed his sister (daeyun) to the point that she was in a month long coma because he 'acted out' and has been 'disobeying' the staff, so yeahh whether he's justified or morally grey idk you decide, I'm just here for a good time

why do you ship val and hawke? c:

TBH I don't know lolol

I guess I wanted to experiment with an unhealthy relationship becoming healthy in the end because you don't see that type of trope very often.

I mean, the first 8 years of their 'relationship' is actually really shitty but it gets better in the end.

And I've kind of put my own experience with my past relationships into Val's characterisation. She has poor self-image so she kind of just clings to anyone who shows her basic decency, which Hawke has done quite a few times (Ostagar, Lothering, and letting her stay with him in Kirkwall and upholding his promise to protect her) and she never lets go (unless you do something really nasty to her.)

With Reggie, it's quite the opposite. He's pretty insecure in the realm of love, and unwilling to let people get close (even if they're good for him ffs) so he pushes them away by hurting them to keep himself from getting hurt, which is really fucking stupid but hey, I used to think like that too after getting hurt too many times.

Idk I kind of wanted it to be a journey where he pretty much grows the fuck up and actually treats her the way she deserves so it's not a "She's the one that got away" thing, and he changes for the better in the way he treats other people, too. :)

#I'm a hopeless romantic and sometimes I forget that he's supposed to be shitty to her at times when I'm writing so its a challenge lol #Don't get me wrong he's nice... when he wants to be haha #but for like the first few years he's a dick #idk i'm rambling #sorry if it's confusing #but I really wanted to explore a different kind of trope #anon #ship asks #oc asks #otp: what dwells within the heart
