things of slay - blog updates

As I've mentioned before, I'm slowly doing some cleanup on this blog and a couple of others. For just a bit, my focus will be on re-working my verses to cast or re-cast necessary muses.

First things first:

CASTING -- I prefer even my free verses to have some solid, non-changing cast members because it helps keep the story tight and moving forward if several of us are on the same page about the plot and our place in it. A bit like a group verse, aside from the fact that any mutual can slide into the universe without asking or applying to do so. The only difference is when there's a specific muse that's cast in a role, I won't interact with a duplicate of that muse in that verse -- an example would be that @gloriousxdarkness is the only Elektra in the Crossed Worlds open spin-off verse, 'Back in Black' but OCs and non-cast muses are welcome to hmu in 'Back in Black' any time.

I'm throwing out a line because I'd like to get some canons in the mix in my open verses. Here's what I'm specifically looking for, verse by verse:

Back in Black -- Clint Barton, James Rhodes, Peter Parker, Laura Barton, Nick Fury, Matt Murdock, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Blade, Any X-Men, Any DCEU, Superheroes and supervillains welcome! It's set in the current year, but diverges from canon at the end of Thor: Ragnarok. In this verse Thanos never happened. This is a very canon verse, other than that, please be aware.

Stranger Things -- I'm restarting my ST open verse, basically from scratch so I'm looking for anyone who's up for it!

Immortal Beloved -- I'd love to have a full set of Mikaelsons, of which I'm only missing Bex and Klaus. Looking for witches, werewolves, other Slayers, vampires, you name it! Set vaguely smack-dab in the middle of The Originals second season.

As always, OCs are welcome in all verses, I'm highly interested in interacting with female muses and I welcome conflict IC as well as friendship, found family, romance, etc. The easiest way to chat about this is to hmu on discord at faithlehane but make sure to tell me who you are/what your tumblr url is. <3

#{ ------------time out. ( ooc ) #I'm working but I'll try to get back to anyone who reaches out asap <3 #anyone taking up a cast role in an open verse will get the special treatment a main or exclusive gets

thinking about how Percy's surface distaste of magic comes from a place of ' I can't do that :| ' / minor jealousy.

Thinking about percy's jealousy over innate magic users being a major factor in him taking warlock abilities from orthax.

#ooc. #tbd. #its way more complicated than that #because a lot of his moments of distaste in magic are earlier campaign & hes actually thankful for the ways in which his allies can use it #but theres still like that petty sentiment of why cant i cast fireball dammit #more on this when i get home to a computer #mobile #hc. #edit: also want to point out that i talk about percy building his pepperbox to even the playing field #but i definitely think he wonders often if he would have had to if he was a magic user on a larger scale

happy 1 year anniversary RE4R! this is my new favorite official drawing of ada (cropped from this official artwork), look at her, she's a silly goofy cat waving at the camera, the only character to acknowledge the fourth wall

#* file // : OOC — ( 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑'𝐒 𝐂𝐑𝐔𝐒𝐀𝐃𝐄 . ) #see characters i love writing most are those with a certain level of meta awareness (it's like cheating) #and ada's habit of narrativizing her own life/missions and greater knowledge than the rest of the cast #does trend in that direction #she has more access to the inner workings of the world than most and she has internalized the pointlessness of fighting for change #it's better to be a player than a pawn #really wanted to make this my new dash icon but it's far too tiny to make out ada's smile or the teddy bear hanging off her toolbelt #sad

tbh clarice's identity reveal has got me thinking about making a percy jackson au for the 9347350th time, but i still cannot imagine a SINGLE goddess who would get with thomas constantine's musty ass, and almost none of the gods feel right in my mind. maybe hermes??

alternative is that he's not actually a demigod at all and is just an ominously long-lived outside contractor who can see through the mist and hoards magical artifacts like a dragon. pretends he's a son of hecate but that's just to bolster his reputation, innit. she is Not a fan. No God is a fan. i'm kind of liking that idea more, actually.

#( ooc. ) OUT OF CIGS. #like yeah hecate is an option but i kind of love the idea that he Can't Actually Cast Magic?? he just pretends REALLY well?? #tyche is my current frontrunner parent bc goddess of luck + constantine's skill with synchronicity & probability manipulation #but AGAIN that would require a goddess fucking thomas constantine and they simply do NOT have taste that bad #FUNNIEST answer would be zeus and john is the biggest disappointment that olympus has ever seen. but i hate zeus #idk man!! much to think about. much to overthink

not to be arrogant or anything but I reckon I could create a good Sherlock Holmes adaptation

// you know what, I will make Castiel the guardian angel of all the people on the spectrum because he'd fit right in with them and feel at home among them in a way he'd never around neurotypical humans or angels ❤️

Lantern Rite leaks (I know these are just things so far, etc. usual):

Listen, listen, listen, I've been so highly anticipating Lantern Rite 2024 since it ended this year (it was my first one, it was amazing; one of the reasons why Liyue will always rate so very highly for me) and I'll be thrilled with whatever it is that we get, but!!! Light negative nancy incoming (understandably so, I think), forgive me, stop reading if you'd prefer: no Ningguang, no Beidou, No Madame Ping?? NO YELAN at all??! (Me: listen, I'll be happy to just see her, doesn't even need to speak, I will never expect more, it's perfectly IC)

Edit: Ok ok, we're better. I got so frustrated at the '19' that I missed the 66. But also, IS THIS STILL LANTERN RITE OR IS THIS CHENYU VALE?

#[ i had to add the zhongli thing so badly-- we wait for lantern rite for the day. /the day where we learn more/. ] #[ liyue is so shrouded and hidden in its events and so if this isn't about liyue and instead-- listen i like furina. ] #[ but if this revolves around furina (listen i just saw the event has her sq as a prerequisite so i'm lightly joking). ] #[ instead of liyue history and zhongli and whatnot. i will chuck inflatable legos!! ] #[ IT'S BEEN TOO LONG SINCE HE'S SPOKEN AND SAID ANYTHING; GUYS. ] #[ as a liyue fanatic this makes me desperate. just. please. hoyo. 🙏🙏🙏 ] #[ but also don't get me wrong. i LOVE fonaine. i love the fontaine cast. i do. i'd be happy to see them. ] #[ i'd actually love to see the lanterns and their traditions to a degree (the wishes carved into the ore that floats the lanterns)... ] #[ be explained by someone from liyue to fontainians. and whatnot. i've proposed it as thread ideas. i'd also like-- ] #[ to see them visit liyue. i hope the harbor/qiaoying will come out during lantern rite for this. ] #[ but also. i want my liyue crew as well; you know? more of them. i miss them. 2023 lantern rite was amazing. but i miss them still. ] #[ ooc. ] don't try to make it logical or edit your soul according to the fashion. rather; follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.

||. Thinking quietly about Thor and his friends. How they all filled a space in him and outside of him that Thor needed fulfilled... The most obvious being in the group's battle formation, but even outside of that too.

Volstagg with his jolly nature helping Thor keep morale up, being the glue that keeps the warriors together, especially when it comes to making group compromises and hard decisions. Hogun with his straight-laced practicality , the way he'd be able to offer an outside perspective to Asgard's ways — something invaluable to Thor. Fandral for all of his apparent womanizing likely keeping up with the courts of Asgard and so Thor would be in the know in a much more close manner through what Fandral knows, and what he's able to find out in Thor's stead. And he's quite personable, in a manner much more suited to crowds than Thor... so that makes the finding of information that much easier, and quicker to relay. (Thor may be a prince, but he's also got Homeschooler Energy out the wazzoo.) Thinking about Sif and Thor being something of childhood friends... Or as close to childhood friends as someone like Thor can have, when you live in a palace your whole life and are largely confined to its walls with your tutors and your parents and your brother for company keep. But Sif would be the exception, I'd imagine, if indeed she is of noble birth the way I'd suspect it.... and Thor and Sif would have gotten along splendidly, especially once he finds out her desire to become a shield-maiden, and then that leads into learning about the Valkyrie, and of course then Thor would want Sif to be HIS Valkyrie, because of all the people who are mighty and brave and compassionate, and who would then deserve to be his esteemed commander of guard, surely why WOULDN'T it be Lady Sif?

And of course there's Loki, who completes many of Thor's loose ends and falterings in plenty of ways, but that's it's own story and its own post for a different time.

Thor picked his warriors well and he picked them wisely. There's not a single quest or mission they can't overcome because each of their strengths buoy the other's weaknesses. Together, when in sync, they're all six of them a well-oiled machine, and it's really no wonder that they, together, become "Asgard's Finest", and it's really no wonder that they were all to be Thor's council as King. (If only all of them lived...)

#(forever pissed that taika waifuck-face killed off thor's party >>) #(thor had such a lovely cast and the warriors and the princes together were all such a lovely dynamic) #(i can only imagine the shenanigans they'd all get into and out of) #(how they'd all protect each other and playfully bully one another) #(and i like to think they had their good and bad moments - and that the friendship DID extend to loki even if loki didn't see it) #(loki's the rogue of the party tbh. the self-designed loner of the group) #(but i'd imagine all six members of thor's posse all thought highly of one another and were all great friends) #(and it's a darn shame we couldn't see more of them O.S. in /non-deleted scenes/) #(the ones we do get are so fun!!! they really do feel like something of a D&D party with all of the ways they get along) #(it's really cute is what i'm saying and i just think this particular aspect of thor's life is grossly overlooked) #( ooc . ) — stories that leap from the page . #( headcanon . ) — glory to the man who toils for his land . may it ever prosper . #( the warriors . ) — the dearest are my heralds swift to spring to my command .

Mulling over the idea of Kae in the Abyss verse slowly transforming into an Abyss herald or smth bc of the influence of all the Abyssal energy he'd absorbed and used, but instead of simply accepting it; he's utterly terrified and the Instant someone, anyone, finds him partway corrupted, him just Immediately reaching out to them so desperately, pride be damned, and begging them in tears to stay, to not leave him alone, like a child craving solace in the face of thunder-
