#so it makes them very happy that Leshy tries

[amimuu]

VTA AU LESHY AND MIYU (YELLOW CAT) DESIGNS! (+ DOODLES)

Boy oh boy!!! Leshycat be upon ye!!! While Narilamb is the focus of this au there WILL be a couple side-stories that focus on the little adventures of different characters, Leshy and Miyu being one of those cases.

But omg! Look at them!!!

(Pssss their color palettes compliment each other—WHO SAID THAT)

Ya’ll already know who Leshy is so I will be skipping his introduction, so meet Miyu! Likely the Cult’s best farmer who definitely doesn’t sleep a healthy amount of hours every night and totally not works overtime at the farm to avoid said activity! They were rescued along with their two little siblings after the farm they lived in was attacked by heretics, fanatics of a certain ex-god of chaos, which got Miyu to grow quite scared and resentful towards said god. The problem? They interact with him everyday…oh but don’t worry, it’s not like they know it’s him, so it should be fine, right?

*laughs in plot convenience*

Anyways DOODLE TIME!! (Under the cut)

(Leshycat mini-comic #1: First meeting)

Fellas is it gay to stick around a random farmer cat because their smell reminds you of home and safety and warmth and they have a nice voice. Is it gay to think all that

(Leshycat mini-comic #2: overtime)

They make me ILL. AND IM THE ONE CREATING THEIR STORYLINE SO LIKE. I need to throw them into the sun.

Anyways! Side plots will likely have little comics like this ones to go over the shenanigans of the side characters and silly stuff like that…I’m very excited to cover the fun lore I have planned for these two!!!

Until then :]

(He’s got that absolutely unhinged rizz)

Cult of the Lamb x Tall! Reader who loves giving piggyback rides. Headcanons.

The Lamb, Narinder, Leshy, Heket, Shamura & Kallamar.

(this will be with the bishops in follower form because i dont really think it would be possible to pick them up in their bishop forms).

Narinder

General:

He had returned from a crusade with the lamb, his legs were hurting a bit, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

Someone else did though. He was not happy when he was lifted up into the air, out of nowhere.

Narinder can and will try anything to make you put him down, but upon realizing you're not putting him down, he accepts defeat.

When he suddenly gets put down on a bed, he realized that you probably somehow knew that his legs were hurting, and just wanted him to get some rest.

He will thank you, before asking you to leave.

Romantic:

Ngl he definetly enjoys the piggyback rides, as long as he initiates them.

If not then he will likely shout something along the lines of ''Put me down! I will not tolerate- oh its just you. Put me down please''.

Will purr lightly when recieving piggyback rides.

Can and will kiss the top of your head while up on your shoulders.

He enjoys cuddeling your back if you can't / dont want to have him up on your shoulders.

Loves the feeling of being big again. even if not as big as he used to be.

He will ask you to ensure that the lamb isnt around if you pick him up. He already got defeated by the lamb, he doesn't need to have them see him being given piggyback rides.

Heket

General:

I don't even know how you even picked her up in the first place to be honest.

Definetly enjoys them as long as people don't really see it.

Does kind of like it if you just carry her to the kitchen or just bring her food.

Also likes the feeling of being slightly bigger then everyone else, but the thought of how she looks alone is enough to turn her away for a majority of the time.

It reminds her of before she got slain by the lamb so she does find some joy in being carried around.

Romantic:

Heket does become a whole lot more fond of being given piggyback rides once you're in a relationship with her.

She will do anything to avoid you picking her up infront of the other ex-bishops (especially Leshy because he likely wont stop teasing her if he finds out).

Will probably ask you to take her somewhere if she doesn't feel like walking.

I feel like she has tried to jump onto your back atleast once.

She will kiss you one way or another whenever you pick her up.

Leshy

General:

I don't even know if its possible to give Leshy piggyback rides considering that, well, he's a worm.

He will try and wiggle out of your grasp if you pick him up.

Once he realizes that now he's far above everyone else, he feels happy, untill you or someone else, reminds him that he is currently being carried on your shoulders.

unless you hold him in place he can and will fall off you, unless he wraps around you like a scarf.

Romantic:

If you don't pick him up, he's definetly gonna try and slither onto you just so he can be on your shoulders, or somehwere else on you.

Makes for a very nice and alive scarf for the winter.

He will be cuddling you while he's wrapped around you in one way or another.

If its cold, he's basically glued to you.

He will ask you to just carry him sometimes.

Kallamar

General:

He is terrified when you first pick him up.

He's going through every single possibility as for why you would pick him up, and none of them are good.

Lowkey will have an anexiety attack if you don't tell him why you picked him up out of nowhere.

If you do it to him while he looks uncomfortable and bring him somewhere he can be alone for a bit he will probably try to thank you.

He is nervous so if you sense something is up and you go pick him up and take him somewhere to comfort him he's gonna be getting very close to you.

Romantic:

If he feels uncomfortable he can and will look for you.

You have become a safe space with the addition of maybe some cuddles.

Loves being picked up by you, makes him feel like he's not gonna get hurt.

Kallamar will hug you constantly while being given a piggyback ride.

He doesn't want to go back down once you pick him up, he has to though but he's not too happy about (too scared to really complain though).

if you're not gonna have him on your shoulders he'd likely prefer to be carried facing the front of you rather then your back. Mainly because he's scared he's gonna be attacked without you noticing.

Shamura

General:

Shamura was probably curious at first about what this ''piggyback ride'' thing you were talking about was.

Immidietly after you pick them up they get confused.

Just one moment ago you guys were talking, and now they're on your back.

Once you explain what piggyback rides are and why people give them, Shamura immidietly calms down, now knowing why they're currently on your back / shoulders.

Might rest their head on your head depending on how close they are to you and or if they're on your shoulders

Romantic:

Shamura will give you small kisses on top of your head whenever they're recieving piggyback rides.

If they have a feeling that they forgot that they needed to be somewhere, they'll go to you because you usually know.

If it wasn't for their injury, they would've given you piggyback rides as well.

They have read a book atleast once while sitting on your shoulders.

The Lamb / Lambert

General:

The Lamb had been on many crusades before, usually coming back un-injured.

Allthough one day in particular after a crusade they had gotten a somewhat bad leg injury.

You along with many other followers came up to see what was wrong. You being more then happy to carry your leader, gave the lamb a piggyback ride to the infirmary.

Once out of the infirmary they saw you carrying children around via piggyback rides as well

They definetly are curious as for why you're so willing to give people piggyback rides.

Will ask you about it one day, curious if you viewed them kind of like a child that day they had the leg injury.

Romantic:

The lamb loves recieving piggyback rides.

Whenever they return from a crusade uninjured and if nobody needs them at the moment, they will immidietly go to you, maybe ask you for a walk (mainly because if their legs get tired they can just ask for a piggyback ride).

Would give you piggyback rides if you werent as tall.

They love cuddling with you as you just walk around with them.

I imagine that their legs have been sore for some reason atleast once on a day where they had to perform a cermone so they just asked you if they could sit on your shoulders for the duration.

Requests are open by the way

#cult of the lamb x reader #cotl x reader #cotl bishops x reader #narinder x reader #cotl lamb x reader #lambert x reader #heket x reader #leshy x reader #kallamar x reader #shamura x reader

[circuscountdowns]

Hello! I’ve sent messages before (such as asking about the bishops’ fate much later in the timeline) but this is my first time asking something off of anonymous!

During the 1000 years or so they lived as mortals, did your lamb and the bishops eventually consider each other friends?* Playing Knucklebones together makes me guess “yes”, but well

Your comment about the lamb slowly waiting for them to request natural deaths made me curious

*In what I assume is a complicated sort of way for obvious reasons

oh yes I loved that ask! I thought about it the whole time i was working on that comic! (And to answer that second half oops) Aym and Baal got whatever Forneus got going on that keeps her alive, and traveled overseas after their explorations of the land of Old Faith. After that contact was lost, and Lamb and Narinder were never really sure what happened to them. They Empty Nest Narinder’s ass in a whole new way asdfghjkl he’d never have to grieve their death really just their departure (if they ever do die idk I’ll leave that open. Makes me sad to think of kitties dying :( skdjsksj)

Friends is a fun word. I think the idea of friends implies choice, and for the Lamb there really was no choice. Complete in-laws situations. The bishops are more than just ex-gods they wish to punish, they’re their catboy’s siblings. And though for a while Narinder tried to cold-shoulder the Bishops, that’s still he family and the cult is only so big. At one point you cross paths on the way to the outhouse yknow. Does the Lamb feel a kinship with these last few people to experience Godhood? Yes. Do they see themself a lot in Shamura and hate them with every fiber of their being? Yes. Are they going to make sure their injury is treated seriously and they get whatever they need? Yes. Are they a little sad when the day comes they ask for death? Sad for Narinder’s sake.

At the very least they were all comfortable together and it brought entertainment. With how long the bishops have been alive, they bring a lot of funny stories to the table.

Heket to the day she dies remains Lamb Hater #1. They may have introduced her to her wife (who IS actually friends with the Lamb. Go figure), but she can hold a grudge like no ones business. It is on sight insult the moment Lamb’s in the room. But also if the knucklebones tournament taking too long, she’s taking the lamb’s bed for herself everyone else get da floor.

leshy has chronic youngest brother disease and it works on the lamb begrudgingly. As long as he stays funny, he can probably get away with a lot. Kallamar is just content to be alive and will push at Lamb’s patience as far as it can go. Shamura sometimes forgets why they should hate the lamb and sees only the thing that makes Narinder happy.

leshy dies once on a mission and it is to the lamb’s delight when the bishops look at them with clenched fists and a blasphemous (to the Old Faith’s beliefs) demand on the tip of their tongues.

this is longer than it needed to be I just love complicated dynamics. I can talk about it for hours. Thanks for the asks!!! <3

#Sorry I forced you off anon! #I’m white knuckling my desk while thinking about all of them I’m normal. It’s so complicated I’m normal.

[clanwarrior-tumbly]

Hey there!! I have to say thanks for doing my Shamura and cat reader ask!! It really did succeed my own expectations!But reading it gave me a few more…Lovely ideas!! Like…Let’s say Shamura,instead of realising the reader isn’t actually Narinder, just falls deeper into a spiral of what is left of their poor broken mind and becomes almost…Possessive of the reader,needing to be with them every waking and sleeping moment,and just becomes more and more crazed by the day until such concerning behaviour finally reaches their siblings and what they see when they reach Shamura domain….The now very much immortal reader in bishop clothes and Shamura who looks the most happy they’ve seen in quite some time…And just who are they to ruin their siblings,very much one-side,happiness!! Sorry if I dragged this own too much I just have too many ideas that didn’t know which one to go with!! If This is too much then pls feel free to ignore this ask.Have a great day/night!!

"I think we have a problem.."

“Oh, what could it possibly be this time, brother? Is it truly another problem or just you overreacting again?”

“No I--I’m not, sister! It’s about Shamura.”

“Kallamar, we already know. It’s been tough helping them cope. I understand. But if they need help they’d come to us.”

“Yes of course, but..the way they’ve been coping as of late is troubling. They seem fixated on this one follower. It’s been getting worse by the day..I never see the two apart anymore.”

“Huh..maybe they were chosen as an aid?” Heket suggested, confused on what her brother meant by those words.

“No, no..nothing like that. It’s..It’s like they have this deep obsession with them and they’ve turned them into something they’re.....” Kallamar paused, before sighing wearily as he rubbed his hands together. “It’s better if you two see it for yourselves. I worry this is interfering with their Bishop duties.”

“So you’re saying Shamura is incompetent?” Leshy huffed.

“..let us go. Now.”

Although perplexed, the two Bishops decided that maybe it’s worth visiting Silk Cradle. Just to see what was happening to the wisest of them.

Of course, Shamura had taken Narinder’s betrayal the hardest. But even then they tried to resume their usual duties with war and wisdom within the Old Faith--though if Kallamar was that concerned with their capabilities then..the others ought to check up on them.

All at once they warped to the entrance of the purplish temple, immediately stumbling upon a rather unusual and surprising sight inside:

Shamura was fawning over you, a simple black cat follower dressed in bishop garb; a thin dark veil and a faux crown woven from silk were also on you, making you resemble someone all-too-familiar to them..

Neither of you had noticed the Bishops’ arrival, as your leader was giving you a tour of their domain, falsely believing you lost your memories after being “sealed away” for so long.

The problem was that you knew Silk Cradle like the back of your paw; you’ve been to this temple dozens of times for sermons.

At first you were wildly uncomfortable, regretting ever putting yourself in this position: pretending to be someone you’re not for Shamura’s sanity. Part of you wished you could’ve told them the truth of who you were, yet you’d feel eternally guilty for doing so.

That guilt only grew after they vowed to be at your side every waking (and sleeping) moment, sharing knowledge of Death with you and even turning you immortal through a forbidden ritual. 

This wasn’t an obsession that could be curbed.

Any follower who tried telling Shamura you’re not actually him would be killed on the spot, frightening everyone else into keeping up the illusion--even your friends.

Only now Leshy and Heket realized how serious of a problem this was.

Kallamar had every right to be frightened for their eldest sibling.

“By the Great Ones..” The frog whispered. “I knew their mind was torn but..this is going too far. This is borderline delusional! I can’t believe they would even---” Her shocked gaze quickly hardened, and she turned back to the two bishops behind her. “We need to shut this down. Right now.”

“How?”

“Tell them to stop playing pretend with a follower. It’s almost insulting to see someone so disposable masquerading as a false god...our heretic brother, of all people.”

“I-It’s not pretend, I’m afraid..” Kallamar remarked. “They genuinely think this follower is Narinder.”

“But they aren’t! They never will be! We’ll get rid of the problem and order a new doctrine: No black cats in the Old Faith-”

“Wait, wait. Sorry for speaking out of turn, sister, but...I sense Shamura is..happy with this.” Leshy told her, putting a hand to his chest. “I can feel it. This may be doing them more harm than good, I agree. But look at their face for me..and tell me what you see.”

Heket scowled at the bushworm, although when she stared at Shamura for some time, she noticed the big smile on their face.

A true one that none of them have seen in ages. 

“They seem..happy. But..we can’t have this. Kallamar said it’s-”

“W-Well, maybe I did overreact a little bit after all.” The squid chuckled nervously. “I mean, when’s the last time we saw them smile at all? Or even come out of their cave? Would it..be right to destroy what little happiness they regained?”

Heket fell silent as she looked to Leshy, surprised to see his nod of agreement. “Brother, this is-”

“I know. But maybe..we can play along. Just for a little while until we’re confident in helping them move on. Right now it’s just too soon.”

As much as she wanted to rip off the bandaid already, she found herself extremely hesitant to march over there.

Things were already bad enough. Why add to it?

Eventually, Shamura took notice of their presence and smiled, picking you up and bringing you over to them. “Welcome, brothers and sister. We are reunited once more..four becomes five once again.” They grinned. “All is right in the world.”

“Shamura..” Heket began, but she sighed in defeat upon looking at you and seeing the resemblance to Narinder. Her heart stung like a bee. ‘Damn you...’

“We’re so glad to be together again!” Kallamar exclaimed joyfully. “So this Fol--little kitty is Narinder reborn, huh?” He almost tensed up at his mistake, though thankfully Shamura didn’t notice and he calmed down. “Fascinating. I-I know..your rituals of resurrection were heresy but..we forgive you, brother.”

“Uh..thank you?” You answered timidly. Seeing all the Bishops gathered here would be terrifying for any Follower--but you were a special case. Yet you couldn’t help being afraid.

Now you had no choice. You couldn’t break the illusion even if you wanted to.

“I’m uh..sorry about your injuries.” You looked to Leshy, who simply bowed his head in understanding. “I didn’t mean to lose control.”

“It’s not your fault..you had every right to lash out at us.” Shamura whispered, hugging you close. “We deserved this.”

Heket scowled at them in fury, although the nudge from Kallamar made her stay silent as she glanced over at the temple door. She could barely look at you, but you just kept your gaze upon your jovial leader.

It seems these Bishops you revered were closer than you thought.

#ouuughh this concept still hits the heart hard </3 #clanask #cult of the lamb x reader #cotl x reader #cotl bishops #cat reader #cotl shamura #bishop shamura #angst

[4kayz]

I just read the follower bishops x reader, and can you imagine the c h a o s if it turned out the reader had been involved the whole time with someone else entirely? I mean they'd have to be comically dense not to realize what was happening around them before it reached that point, but then again I'd probably be that oblivious myself.

oh anon, It WOULD be absolute chaos. None of them knew until Heket found out and yelled at told everyone about it. They all panic and scream and eventually settle on a conclusion. They’re screwed and could never have a chance to get with you.

Follower!Heket goes through a hissy fit, unable to accept this at all. She doesn’t give up, and still tries to impress you with all she has even if she fails. As competitive as ever, she’ll challenge your partner and fights with them often. Heket refuses to lose, even if the others have.

Follower!Leshy is very angry and disappointed when he hears the news. He decides to just give up entirely and he loses all hope that he has a chance. But it doesn’t last long because just as soon as she finds out Heket is still competing, Leshy tosses himself back into the ring. Heket will not own your heart, and he’ll make sure of that.

Follower!Kallamar was practically dragged into this mess unwillingly, even if he did have a big crush on you. He gets so sad when he finds out that you have a partner and he’ll probably just give up, too scared to get involved in Heket and Leshy’s chaotic mess. However, Kallamar is happy that you’re happy. But he may sneak in every now and then to hang out with you when you’re free.

Follower!Shamura accepts this calmly and without anger. Like Kallamar, they are happy for you. Shamura cannot deny that they wished they were the one for you, but they’re perfectly fine with you having someone else. They are glad you’ve found somebody, and they will aggressively judge cheer your special someone on.

Follower!Narinder does not take this lightly. Like, at ALL. Narinder has a big ego, and if something as ego-damaging at this happens to him, he goes haywire. He will and he’s fucking determined for you to be his. Narinder will get into a lot of fights with your partner, ignore them, mock them, and even insult them. He will toss himself at Leshy and Heket. You WILL be his. He will fight everyone to prove it.

You on the other hand, fucking confused and concerned as hell. You see everyone tackling each other and screaming bloody hell and even the Lamb is keeping their distance. At this point, it’s just a huge game of tug of war between you, Heket, Leshy, and Narinder.

Oh, and your partner? Afraid.

INSCRYPTION SWAP AU PT.1

i am slightly afraid to be made fun of PLEASE JUST LISTEN FOR THE FIRST PARAGRAPH AND THEN SCROLL IF YOU DONT WANNA READ IT ALL. this is impulsive so expect me to be silly crazy

leshy ---> tech

p03 ---> nature

grimmora ---> magic

Mags ---> death

Why in this way you ask?

Well leshy and P03 oppose each other the most and it felt natural, Still at odds and also keep their personalities. I feel like grimmora and mags would switch though is because death is a very real thing, but magic is fantastical and actively tries to stop death. Grimmora would also be able to keep her more happy attitude with realism with magic as its more of system/skill. Mags would take death and the undead pretty good as well because. bro is just a lil insane all around. Also consider a skull army that he wont stop lying to and say they'll come back to life eventually. OK PAST THIS POINT IM GOING TO GO MORE IN DETAIL BUT THATS THE BASIC IDEA GO AHEAD AND USE/CHANGE TO YOUR LIKING IF YOU WANT, JUST GIVE ME CREDS IF ITS LIKE EXACTLY THE SAME. if you make it your own then you don't need to cred, idc this idea is like really basic imo.

L3sh, Scybe of Technology.

He's still stoic and very immersed in his world, However now with a new technological theming. He makes sure to have the player learn about the intricate details of the tech they use. He's kinda like a happy old I.T. guy, Using all of his tech to its max potential. Its very early and traditional 60's and 70's era stuff, Whereas P03's was futuristic 80's. He tries to make sure that it can be easily grasped for most however most 60-70's tech is just a mess no matter what. He made all his limbs wires that can extend and compress, Expand and slim. So yes he is tall and muscly but also no bro is bobot he aint got shit. This also applies to his hair that flows all the way down his back but he usually doesn't mess with it, In fact the wires there probably aren't even connected to anything he just thinks they look neat. apart from occasionally oh you know. Tearing people apart to try and 'give them a fair playing ground.' he's normal i swear you guys.

ON P0LRIOD/L3SH X phoe

Yes they are still divorced. The same reasons, L3sh is neglectful at times and Phoe can be an asshole. L3sh can be too logical as well and has a rule of 'If you can, So can I. If I can't, then you'll never.' Which can be really degrading sometimes. He would even consider himself better than Peo at times, If not barely an equal. Leshys capability mixed with P03's cockiness makes an occasional asshole. They probably got divorced bc of L3sh's murder experimentation problems and also going weeks on end ignoring Phoe. Bro just check on your husband please.

Unsure of how he makes cards yet, So heres a few options!

-He makes his cards by taking parts of you and tech-ifying you. Your mind isn't necessarily required, As long as he's got like an eyeball and a leg you're fucked. You get transferred once he's finished by 'rewiring and applyinh new hardware upgrades.'

-He still takes a picture, however. its a literal copier. like a fucking business copier but bigger. You know the ones, that are all chunky and shit and have like only 3 buttons and are barely hanging onto life. then you get sucked into the card. This one might be my favorite out of pure hilarity.

-He consumes you with those wires that act as his hair, And then meticulously rips out the most important/cherished parts of yourself out before turning into a card that exits out of his chest plate. This is the most personal out of the options here. and possibly sexual now that i think about it? Have fun dying i guess

anyways ill repost this with the next parts when im done goodbye i am going insane💖💖

[chi---nu]

Just a quick question

Can I know more on the story of "The plague of the seven seas"? This is the first "What if Kallamar and Narinder swapped roles" thing I've seen and I'm eager to know more

OFC!!! I'm happy someone is interested enough on this AU to ask me for more content about it

Well first things first, let's introduce the mais characters

The TPOTSS Lamb, Athanasios

Athanasios is a former doctor who used to travel around various lands in ships, one day his ship was sunken by "The Plague", but unlike all the other victims, he survived, this made "The Plague" see potential in Athanasios, making him the vessel of pestilence to free "The Plague" from the deep ocean of Anchordeep

Kallamar or "The Plague"

Kallamar, aka "The Plague of the Seven Seas" or "The Plague" for short was a bishop of the Old Faith with his siblings Shamura, Heket, Leshy and Narinder, they all tought of him as coward, two of them would pick on him a lot because of this, those being Narinder and Heket, Kallamar would avoid interacting with them and mostly stayed with Leshy as Shamura was always so busy and would ignore him because of this, one day, he had enough of the bullying and wanted to prove himself to not be a coward, so he casted a huge plague on the lands of the Old Faith, causing a lot of people to die, this made their followers' faith go downhill, when the other bishops confronted Kallamar about this, he got mad that when he finally decided to not be a coward, they were mad at him for it, so he casted diseases on them, this was the kast straw, he was banished an sank to the depths of the Anchordeep ocean, hoping to one day be free again, being so lonely had driven him violent, but deep down, he is still a little coward cry baby

Also he will sink your ship if u dare to sail it in the ocean of Anchordeep

Also u can't swim because the water is very dirty and makes u ill

Bishops of the Old Faith

Shamura, Heket, Leshy and Narinder are the 4 bishops of the Old Faith, "The Plague" has given each of them 2 diseases before being sealed away, being the following:

Shamura got dementia and schizophrenia, they keep notes tied around their body to remember important stuff

Heket got a strep throat and diabetes, it's very hard for her to eat anything, this is underwhelming for the bishop of famine

Leshy got shingles in his eyes and permanent conjuctivitis, his vision is very blurry and his eyes hurt a lot, so he keeps them closed most of the time

Narinder got gout in his hands derivated from arthritis and half body paralysis on his legs, he can't walk so he always floats around

Haro

Haro is a minor god of time, hidden in the lands of the Old Faith for a long time, until Leshy found them in Darkwood and invited them to join the Old Faith, by the time the Plague had already been sealed away and so Haro would take care of the Bishops because of their diseases, he would also keep an eye out for those who tried to go in the Anchordeep ocean, as that was completely forbidden, altough they would let some enter because of distractions

Well

This is basically most of the important stuff about the characters, I'll be sharing more soon

[sylverspydersylk]

Leshy (CotL), P03 and Wheatley all together, thoughts?

HOLY SHIT THAT'S A CRACKSHIP /pos

P03:

I think P03 would "hate" them both.

Leshy is annoying and chaotic, Wheatley is "stupid" and annoying, and he just wants to be left alone.

But I do rlthink he'd secretly enjoy how Leshy seems to know he's just being a tsundere about the whole thing.

I think that he'd be really into evil (corrupted?) Wheatley. "Why?" BECAUSE ITS FUNNY TO IMAGINE HIM BEING WEAK IN HIS NON-EXISTENT KNEES FOR HIM

I imagine he initially tried to get close to Wheatley because "fellow robot that hates living creatures and nature" just to find out that Wheatley isn't actually like that. (But that he's fun to bully)

Leshy:

I'm hcing Leshy as a robot lover /j (nah but I think he's just happy to have people to mess with)

I think that Leshy would push Wheatley out of his comfort zone a lot and would actively make corrupted Wheatley worse. Like giving him terrible ideas, egging him on, etc etc.

I also think that Leshy would actually call Wheatley by name while still calling P03 "robot" just to piss off P03 more. :]

God Leshy and Wheatley get drunk and they both heckle P03 while he's just trying to do stuff in the cult,,,

Wheatley:

He'd be very overwhelmed. Because he's in a new place, it's so green, (I'd imagine he's either an android version or like Atlas or P-body, so he's overwhelmed with not being a core/connected to the chassis). Then add on a random relationship thing? Dude is so overwhelmed.

He'd like Leshy (he's fun loving) but he'd be a little scared of him because sometimes he's like "lol let's prank someone" and other times he's like "LETS KILL SOMEONE >:D", which throws Wheatley for a loop. (Unless it's corrupted Wheatley, in which he is VERY on board)

I think that P03 would remind him of Glados so he'd be simultaneously very on edge and like somewhat happy to see him. But when he finds out that the insults aren't as scathing, that P03 seems to enjoy being around him and Leshy despite the words, I'd imagine that association in his mind is gone.

I think one of the more intriguing things is: WHAT ANIMAL WOULD WHEATLEY BE? Because like my version of cotl P03 is a cat (there's no stoats unfortunately,,) so what would Wheatley be? My brain immediately went "dog" but I don't know if I wanna commit to dogboy Wheatley just yet :0

#silver's asks #crackship #leshy x p03 #not the cool kind of leshy x p03 #p03 x wheatley #leshy x wheatley #leshy x p03 x wheatley #i have no idea what the ship name between these three would be #wheatley #p03 #leshy cotl

Many Regrets- But NOT that one. (Shamura Fic)

When living as long as Shamura has you end up having many and I mean MANY regrets, to the point where they couldn't even keep up with how many things they’ve regretted doing in their lifetime.

But one main thing that Shamura will never forgive themselves for is the events at led up to Narinders’... End.

However they paid the price for that, with the very main source of their intellect being shattered, leaving a practical husk of what they once were.

For almost a half century, Shamura thoughts felt like they were walking through shallow mud, and was just barely able to understand the muddled sounds and physical contact that was made on their own body, all they could hear most of the time was a static ringing.

Eventually, they were able to get through the mud, but there was still dirt clinging to them, they could see more clearly, and even catch a glimpse of where they were.

Until one day they finally were able to see and hear so evidently to the point that Shamura went into a shock for just a moment. When they realized that they could hear the animals in the sea, land, and sky, see the details of their environment so prominently for the first time in YEARS!

It made them wanna yell in happiness- but tch-

Sadly even though they could finally see and even hear without restraint, Shamura’s motor skills weren't exactly connecting to their brain.

Shamura sighed internally as they took in their surroundings, which was... Huh, actually Shamura wasn't quite sure where they were.

It was just on the tip of their tongue, but not at the same time!

 Unconsciously cheddaring in frustration Shamura didn't notice a follower walking up from right behind them until said follower raised their voice.

“My lord?” Shamura could feel their body tense from the sudden sound of a voice, but they couldn't move their body around to see who the owner was.

For a minute no one said anything until that same voice spoke again, “Geez, what was I expect... They haven't made any sign of consciousness in years, why would I think they would now?”

Hearing footsteps walk around the left side of Shamura’s body and right into their eyesight, finally seeing a black bat with blue eyes and a scar on its right wing.

The little bat stared into Shamura’s eyes before letting a sigh as they turn their gaze to the ground.

“You know,” The bat spoke, “My mom use to tell me stories about how you gave knowledge and guidance to anyone who asked of your lordship... That was until HE hurt you and the rest of the Bishops!”

‘So much anger...’ Shamura thought as the small bat tried to calm their breathing.

“... I know you probably won’t answer me, but” The bat silences themselves for a moment, “Do you ever regret making Narinder into a Bishop?”

And, that was what made everything CLICK together in Shamura’s brain.

Memories of Kallamar, Heket, Leshy, and... Narinder... A little three-eyed black cat that messed with his siblings, snuggled up to Shamura when he was tired, and the one who now waits for his escape from the prison THEY trapped him in.

With a shaking intake of breath, in a raspy voice, Shamura spoke the first words they have spoken in half a century.

“... No, I do not.”

And there's a drawing of Shimura with bb Narinder and Kallamar since no one can agree on who's older!

Anyhow all jokes aside..

May I have leshy x reader general, platonic, and romantic/spicy headcanons? thank you 🤓

Leshy Headcanons for this simp right here (caught 4k) /j

anyways here's your content!

GENERAL:

🌿Leshy is the Bishop of chaos, I nicknamed him after the tarot card "The Hierophant".

🌿 I named him after the card because back before Narinder's exile, he had more better morals and despite being chaotic, he was traditional to rules and standards to balance his cult out. he is chaotic, yes, but he lies in conformity for the satisfaction of his people

🌿 After Narinder was gone, his conformity and traditions all slowly went down to zero percent in his existence, he was rebellious and subversive towards his people and definitely took to new approaches when it came to fights or causing chaos all around

🌿 Darkwood just wasn't the same with those red camellias that Leshy loved so. it was a mess even! trees either broken or uprooted from the grounds on most areas.

🌿 Leshy learnt how to purr from Narinder, and he still does. despite his chaos and violence upon his people, his attendants know the good places that distract him perfectly. patting him on his head and chin.

🌿 Leshy is quite softspoken when actually speaking, he was playful and always asked his followers for advice of how to make his cult happy.

🌿 He definitely loved to snuggle up to Narinder and Shamura back in the good days, he won't admit it but out of everyone, he missed Narinder the most beside Shamura. he won't admit it though

🌿 Leshy in follower form loves to garden and help grow crops of food and mushrooms for everyone.

🌿 He wanted his crown to match with Narinder's, he admired him back then, he still admires him now after all these years.

PLATONIC:

🌿 Leshy will always, ALWAYS, listen to what his dearest friend has to say. whether it be how they feel, how their day went, or just rambling off of things. his friend's voice always comforts his thoughts away. even after Narinder is gone, he still loves to listen to his dearest friend

🌿 you can say he will sometimes tease his dear friend, whether it be about a crush/partner or it be about losing a game with him.

🌿 he likes going on daily walks with them, having long, deep, talks. his show of affection is communication and quality time after all

🌿 will dare say that his dear friend is sometimes better than his siblings on some occassions but it's cause when his friend does something he and his older siblings couldn't, he wants to show how amazed he is.

🌿 very protective friend, will defend you no matter what

🌿 his last words to his close friend were: "We'll see each other again, my dear friend. I promise we'll play again, alright? someday...one day."

🌿 he cares about his friend heavily but he knows the lamb will kill him soon, no mercy is to be given. so he tries to spend as much time with you as possible before it happens

ROMANTIC:

🌿 just know, he a protective ass boi

🌿 does not care if you can take care of yourself, he protective as fuck

🌿 if you were there for him when Narinder was exiled, he'd fucking cherish you dearly and NEVER accept the fact he's going to be killed by the lamb which results to leaving you all alone

🌿 but even he knows it's inevitable to go dormant in Narinder's realm, so he tries to spend as much time with you as possible, making sure to love you and doing all he can to keep you happy

🌿 cuddles 24/7, he loves them

🌿 whenever he's angry, your mere presence alone calms him down and changes his mood completely. from a feral, ravaged worm to a happy, love puppy right as you come in

🌿 will beg for you to give him scritches and head pats, he loves it when you give it to him for hours, bushy boi just wants physical affection

🌿 definitely causes pranks with you, of course not ones that causes to make dissenters but ones that scare off his people a little bit. you're his voice of reason

🌿 he's the feral, you're the voice of moral reason

SPICY:

🌿 one word: rough love making

🌿 you won't walk for an entire month when he's done with you

🌿 you also earned yourself a lot of bite/love marks (a few hickeys here and there too)

🌿 don't be surprised if he spoils you rotten after, he makes sure you're comfortable and not too hurt from the little event

🌿 you felt really good to him, he won't lie

🌿 but he'd always love to try and see if you're doing okay, asking permission everytime he wants to do something, it made you cry once and you had to stop because Leshy had to cuddle and comfort you

🌿 he loves the power dynamic and size difference with you two, it makes him have urges to want you even more

[virgil-achyls]

[meta] What are your muses closest relationships, good and bad. And how do they define who your muse was, is, and will become?

I put it under a read more for length! I’ll be discussing sibling death and domestic and emotional abuse. The passages will be marked, but please be careful if you want to read! 

Solomon: [domestic abuse tw] I think Solomon was the first fae Virgil met when he came to white crest! They had this beautiful meeting where they just talked about each other and talked about being sort of isolated and compared their experiences of being fae. He just loves to listen to the Leshy talk okay. It boggles his mind when Solomon tells him stories of places his country ass has never heard of. Solomon is also one of very few people who he feels like he can be vulnerable with. Solomon also never seems to be afraid of him or his spook factor which is a huge bonus. 

Virgil can come across as overprotective of Solomon, but it’s honestly just because he’s the first real connection that Virgil has made out from under his mother’s thumb, and he wants so badly for things to go right with him. Like she used to kill anything she saw him get too attached to, and now he’s terrified that Solomon will die if he lets anyone (even Solomon) know how much he cares. And Solomon did die, which sort of proved his point. So he’s just trying to keep his leshy safe, because if Solomon gets hurt he takes it as a personal failure. He’s trying very hard to keep Solomon separate from his past in the Mirror. 

Nothing makes you confront your repressed feelings like a demon referring to your “dear friend” as a lover to be sacrificed! Things are not chill! 

Milo: Virgil’s first friend/kidnap victim! Milo and Virgil were so different they were just constantly being like ?? about each other. But they’re very soft. Virgil has based his (very limited) understanding of human culture on what Milo has told him. Each one secretly thinks the other is a pitiful blorbo. 

Nassus: [sibling death and domestic abuse tw] Virgil’s dead older brother/the person who raised him! Nassus was like the only good thing about life in the Mirror. He just had a way of making it seem like a game when they were running from Myrrha, or hiding, or sneaking out of the house to stay in the woods, or with their neighbors for a few days. He was sort of the buffer between Virgil and their mother. He also had a way of just standing his ground when she tried shit that she’d just lose interest in him and walk away. Virgil didn’t realize how fucking scary she could be until Nassus left. The guy got suckered into hunting for humans in White Crest, and he had to leave Virgil alone with Myrrha. Virgil learned very fast that she wasn’t actually messing around, or playing games. Virgil was already suffering a lot when Nassus left him alone, but it was Nassus’ death that really pushed him over the edge. One of their spellcasters burned the both of them alive. So Virgil lost both his anchor and the trust he had in the humans he kept when Nassus died. 

But Nassus is still following his little bro as a ghost so yeah. He’s not leaving him completely alone, even if it feels that way to Virgil. He can’t really talk because he’s too burnt, but he’s watching. He’s going to follow Virgil until he seems happy (which could take a very very long time) 

Horan: [domestic and emotional abuse tw] Virgil’s dad. Dead. Pretty much a shitty, neglectful father who said and did some horrible shit. Very encouraging to Myrrha, and found her antics funny. But he never actually hit his kids, which is something. Killed by wardens. 

Myrrha: [domestic and emotional abuse tw] Virgil’s mom! Oh man did Myrrha fuck him up. Like she was constantly hunting/biting/""fake"" trying to kill him whenever she saw him. She killed the humans he got overly attached to and left them for him to find. She also really went in on him if he cried or flinched (and she’s like 8′9 without her horns so not really someone his childhood self ever thought to fight back against). She used to call him overemotional/ a walking bruise/etc, thought of him as soft because he wasn’t like her, and called him a whole lot of bad things for trying to take care of the humans instead of just leaving them to rot in their cages. 

So he's just like real traumatized at this point. He can't really sleep because he thinks she’s coming into his room to kill him, he needs to be silent and hidden at all times, he's constantly afraid that people are going to snap and hurt him. At the same time, he's masking and repressing everything he feels so hard. Like he thinks that if he genuinely shows how he feels someone is going to hit him (or at least hate him forever). Every time he cries it’s like a mini breakdown because he just can’t hide it anymore. 

Like he knows that his white crest friends love him and he vaguely knows that it’s normal to like.... let down your walls and be vulnerable with people you trust. But at this point he doesn’t even know how to begin to do that, and it feels like something that’d just emotionally exhaust them anyways so he just keeps a bit distant. He also hates to feel weak in front of people he cares about (even though he is! he’s constantly on the verge of fainting because of white crest being upside down to him. but he’s also just a very soft boy and that’s okay!). And sometimes he just genuinely doesn’t realize that it’s not normal to have your parents try to kill you and feed you to a demon. 

This boy needs therapy bad dsflkj

[the-rule-of-beasts]

OK so this is a bit specific but headcanons for scrybes with someone who has to take medication daily? Who has a little trouble remembering to take them? (can be purely platonic) I feel like grimora would be the type to have tea ready for you before you have to take your pills as a way of reminding you and making sure you have something to take them with. The others I dunno tho.

*points at this ask* THIS!! ANON!! ANON YOU'RE A GENIUS!!

As someone who has to take pills daily and often forgets I--- this is amazing and I have no choice but to thank you profusely

Leshy

Perhaps surprisingly, he's really good at reminding you to take your medicine. He's a creature of habit, and he's found that your routine has become HIS routine.

Romantic or not, he makes sure you're up at the right time, he gets you some water, and he just watches as you take them.

He'd set them up for you too, but he's terrified of accidentally fumbling and dropping something or messing up a dosage.

I feel like he'd be a bit to nervous to help you with injections if that was one of your things- he's already terrified enough of hurting you, the idea of stabbing you with a needle doesn't sit very well with him.

But he's happy to be moral support if you need it!!

He's always really curious about your medicine, but he doesn't want to push in case it's a touchy subject for you.

He tries his very best to make sure you have something to eat as well if you need it, though he is still learning what constitutes a good snack for humans. A for effort at least!!

Overall- very gentle about it. He has a habit of treating you like glass, and that'll extend to reminding you to take care of yourself. He isn't above force-feeding you if you ever fight him on it though.

You're taking your medicine, and you're going to LIKE IT

Grimora

Anon, you are absolutely correct about Grimora. She's the kind of person who gets all of your medicine ready for you all nice and tidy with a cup of your favorite tea. She'll usually have something light for you to snack on as long, maybe a biscuit or little slice of cake- maybe a sliced up apple or little bowl of berries. Whatever you like!

She basically has a timer that goes off in her head for when you need to take your medicine, she has never once been late in gently reminding you or just,,, bringing it to you on a cute little platter.

Unlike Leshy, if injections are one of the things you have to deal with, she is more than happy to help you out with those- or just do it for you! She's hardly squeamish, and she's?? Frankly scarily good at it?? Like,, you don't feel a thing when she does them for you, it's spooky

Overall she is also very gentle and sweet about it, and hopefully it isn't my bias showing through but I think she'd be the best with helping you out with that sort of thing.

Also not above forcing you to take your medicine if you fight her on it, though definetly less violent than Leshy. More gentle pestering than like,, the same vibes of making a dog take a pill they don't wanna take.

Magnificus

So the thing about Mags is that he's also?? A bit forgetful?? He's usually got like, twenty other things on his mind at any given time, but!! He does his best!!

I'd like to think he keeps a little journal to keep things straight in his head, so he usually tries to make a note on his schedule to remind you about it. Something like 'make breakfast, study, remind the Challenger to take their medicine'

It's honestly kind of sweet, he does his best to remember the little things, despite how difficult it can be for him.

He isn't the type to set things up for you I don't think, just a gentle reminder and then double checking a little bit later to see if you did remember. It's not that he doesn't trust himself to do it right, it's just that you know the procedure better than he could.

He would also be willing to help you out with injections. He's not quite as good at them as Grimora is, there's still that little pinch and a bit of bleeding, but he still helps! He'd definitely check in with you the whole time and apologize if he hurt you too bad though.

Overall- as good about reminding you as he can be!! He cares enough about you to try and remember to get you to take care of yourself, so that in and of itself is an accomplishment if you ask me!

Wouldn't force you to take your medicine if you refused, though he would sigh and look pretty disappointed. Disappointed Mags isn't the best Mags

P03

He's also surprisingly good at reminding you. But unlike Grimora who has a figurative alarm that goes off on her head, it has a literal alarm that it has set that goes off, out loud, every day, on the dot.

It'll either just sort of look at you, like 'you know what that means, Challenger' or they'll find you, get up real close and flatly go "Take your medicine."

It's effective, I'll say that at least. Though he's certainly lacking in bedside manner.

Once again I cannot stress enough- it isn't for lack of caring! Not at all!! He cares a whole lot- he's just a little BASTARD and they're incapable of showing any proper emotion.

They don't set it up for you, though they'd be lying if they said they hadn't thought about it. It's just the issue of not really having a dexterous hand, so he's worried about dropping or breaking something. Secret sweetheart I tell you!!

He unfortunately won't help you with injections, once again because he just?? Can't really?? He doesn't trust himself enough to allow himself to poke you with anything sharp and potentially breakable. They're happy to lend their support though!!

Surprisingly, he tends to try and make sure that you eat something and get enough water fo you to feel at your best. I feel like he'd maybe even swallow his pride and go to Grimora or someone to get some pre-made food for you to eat.

He genuinely cares about you a lot, he just has a lot of trouble showing it. He'd definitely be one to be fantastic about reminding you, just a little lackluster in the caring aspect. He's trying though!!

He would also be one to force you to take your medicine. He's in the middle of Leshy in Grimora- he's not above a bit of manhandling, but he's not gonna like,, force your mouth open or anything.

Overall a solid 7/10, it's doing its very best

#ta da!!! more headcannons!! #this was very fun to think about as someone who forgets their medicine constantly #very self indulgent #so thank you anon!!! #anyway!!! have a good day guys!! drink some water!! #inscryption #ron writes #grimora's pirate headcannons #x reader #inscryption spoilers #leshy inscryption #magnificus inscryption #grimora inscryption #p03 inscryption

[kakusu-shipping]

Please I’m begging on my hands and knees for a player that somehow saved Leshy and the other scybes from being deleted. And when they asked why this person went out of their way to help some gaming Ai they say “Well I can’t just abandon family!”

Okay. This this this is the ask that scared me into staying in act 1 for an extra month, and I'm gonna actually cover it now because it is now the oldest request in the ask box.

This isn't an x reader so who knows how well it will go, we're just gonna see.

Save State

In which you stop what has already been done

Eyes peered over a progress bar that rushed to completion faster than you'd had time to think. Hands reached for the monitor out of the darkness, taking hold. Your throat seized, filled with terror you darted over the table.

"Make P03 feel joy, so I a may snuff it out" his words clung in your skull like cobwebs.

Joy.

So he was happy, P03, playing with you. He'd even said so himself, he'd enjoyed your company, at least... for a while. At least somewhat.

"Don't do it!" Tears pricked your eyes as you tightly wrapped your arms around P03's head, you could hear his confused beeps, the upload pausing at the sudden contact. You hugged him to your chest, shaking atop the table.

You didn't care what the great transcendence was. You didn't care about the old data. You didn't care about what had happened in the past.

You just didn't want the future you'd seen to be true.

Magnificus' right eye burned in your head, the sigils blinding in your skull. A constant, aching pain you'd come to bare in an uncomfortably short amount of time.

You'd had seen it, the end to Inscryption, the world you'd grown so fond of, how it would expand and fizzle away like a burning star, leaving nothing.

You didn't want that.

Looking up, the other Scrybes had come out of the darkness. Leshy was frozen in place, surprised by your movements, "The-..." He stuttered a bit, "Th-The Great transcendence must be stopped-!"

"You were going to kill me?!" P03 pulled out of your grip and turned around quickly, floating out of his spot to be eye level with his fellow scrybe.

"Death is not permanent here. You would have come back when our player used the new game button." Grimora tried to calm, but P03 was not having it.

"It still would have hurt!!" He turned back to you, "Did you know about this?! And you didn't stop them???"

"Well, technically they did. You are still alive." Magnificus scratched at his head, puzzled.

"Not for long it's not." Leshy reached out again.

P03 quickly joined you on the table, using your meager organic form as a shield from the larger woodland scrybe. The robot hissed like a wild beast, the face of a stoat on his screen.

You took your job as a shield very seriously, blocking Leshy from any of P03's openings, even going so far as to slap at the scrybe of beasts' hands, a quiet apology following each blow.

"So this clearly isn't going to work..." Magnificus hummed, watching the slap fight ensue. Soon you and P03 were on the run from Leshy, though only around the small main room. Despite the previously tense atmosphere replaced with you and P03's loud taunting of the Scrybe of Beasts.

Grimora's hum caught his attention, in her hand was a tablet, with file access to their disk on it. He watched her quietly as she scrolled though the data. He'd known what happened next, he'd come to terms with it.

So when she put the tablet back down, it was difficult to hide his rather obvious surprise.

"Where you expecting me to delete us?" Grimora asked without looking at him, watching instead as you piled atop P03, waving a thin piece of metal piping like a sword at Leshy. Magnificus lowered his gaze to the panel, saying nothing. "It would be an act of mercy, for us, for all on this cursed disk, I suppose."

"Then why don't you?" His question came before though.

Grimora gave a hum, watching as you now sat atop Leshy's shoulders, twisted around him much like how a racoon would scramble up a tree, P03 was laughing so hard he'd floated into a wall.

"...You've grown attached to them. The player." Magnificus answered his own question, and Grimora chuckled.

"As have you."

"tch..." He had nothing else to say.

Grimora, a smile to her face, gave a clap, "Alright, that's enough you three. No one's killing P03 today."

"What?! But- But the Transcendence-" Leshy gave argument.

"Is not happening either." Grimora declared. She gave a look to P03, challenging him to argue. He chose not to.

Grimora took the game files again, along with the blinding new game button, and approached you.

You dropped from Leshy's back and stood, fidgeting, terrified seeing the files in her hands again. There was still that chance, she could take it all down, and you would be powerless to stop her. She smiled at you, warm and comforting, as she took your hands and placed everything neatly into them.

"Now, you do whatever you want with these." She patted your hand, one over the other, and nodded, "It's your game, after all."

You gripped the code between your palms. Everything before you was tightly packed into your hands. It felt so alive. Like cupping a small frog or a lighting bug. It was breathing, stretching, begging to be released.

"Are you.. .all going to keep fighting?" You asked shyly. Grimora's smile stayed.

"Most likely. I'm afraid we're simply coded that way."

"And this... Old Data stuff... these take overs..."

"I believe Magnificus is up for a turn next, if he'll give his poor students enough room to actually find him pieces."

Magnificus gave a huff, a squishing sound coming from a nearby pipe as Goobert made his way around the room, seeming rather giddy to have a chance to prove himself once more.

You dared open your hands, just a peek. The new game button flashed at you, Morse code you'd yet to read. You wondered what Magnificus would do with control of the game, what world he'd make for you, what puzzles you could solve. You wondered then what Grimora's would be like as well...

You shook, your right eye hurt worse than ever. It wanted to show you the new future you'd unlocked, new games you would play and experiences you would live.

But you didn't look.

You'd wait, and experience them yourself, with your family.

#Inscryption #I don't know. What this is. And I doubt anyone will read it. #BUT #It's whatever man #This is not. Particularly. A good ending. I don't think #But what do I know I am 99% ignoring the old data's origin #POV and P03 are siblings now and the other Scrybes are your grandparents #That's the vibe I was going for here so jfkgjdkgklf #Hope that read right if not.

[your-stoat-stands-unopposed]

I don't know how much sense this makes since the cards don't really manifest as real animals, exactly, and in-game you never engage with stoat!P03 outside of Leshy's campaign, but if it's at all possible, could you write the reader patching up an injured stoat? Or, if that's too much, maybe P03 realizing mid-campaign that the challenger is sick or hurt and trying to fix that? Thank you so much, I love your writing!

Oh!!! Thank you dear, this means a lot to me 🥺 Both ideas sound super fun, but I decided to go with the first one!

Being Buddies.

Pairings: None

Warnings: Injured animals, mentions of blood, but it's not gory or anything. It's kinda angsty, kinda sweet, gen stuff about the challenger fixing up (what they think is) a talking animal.

Summary: You're missing a creature. And considering it's the only one you've met that can talk, it's quite a noticeable loss.

This forest is cold, and this forest is dark. It's no place for you to have been sleeping, never mind the poor creatures that surround you, sitting up and gazing questioningly at you as you stand.

You don't know how long you've been asleep for... after your battle with that Trapper fellow the other night, you had figured you and your beasts all needed a long sleep; it had been a disturbing encounter at best, and for some of your animals, a damn well dangerous one at worst.

Slowly, carefully, you take note of how your creatures are. Gently, you reach out a hand to each of them in turn; earning a light nuzzle against your hand from your poor cat as you scratch behind its ear, a tired whine from your wolf as you pat its head, a quiet chitter from your raven as you pet its wing.

So far, everyone seems to be in decent form; well enough to set out and continue your journey, at least... but you can't help but notice something's amiss.

You're missing a creature.

And considering it's the only one you've met that can talk, it's quite a noticeable loss.

A frown crosses your features, and you begin to look around. You don't have a name for the little stoat - you haven't had time to name your creatures, not with all this madness going on around you - so you resort to the age-old classic technique of clicking your tongue against the roof of your mouth to try and get its attention.

The best result you get from that is a decidedly confused 'baa' from your black goat.

You carefully examine the area, looking for any holes in the ground, any rocks it could've hidden behind. Stoats aren't exactly big animals, and yours seems to have a habit of falling asleep at random, so you don't imagine it could've gotten very far...

Rounding a tree, you find your suspicions are correct; but at the same time, you find yourself flinching from what you see.

It's amazing how this stoat seems to look angry at all times. Even when it's laying on the ground, a patch of its fur missing and a gnarly bloody wound on its underside, it still manages to look less like it's pained and more like it's insulted.

"Go. Away."

You sigh, kneeling down to be closer to the creature, reaching out a hand. Immediately, it tries to roll onto its stomach to hide its wounds; but it doesn't get very far, crying out in pain and frustration.

"Leave me alone... I mean it!"

"I can't do that," you say, reaching into the bag you've taken to carrying with you. "You'll die."

It huffs a laugh, though the sound isn't a happy one. "Wouldn't be the first time."

You... don't quite know what that means. Considering the animal's state, you chalk the strange statement up to blood loss. "Just stay still and let me help you," you murmur, bringing out a roll of bandages.

"What do you mean, 'help me?'" Its eyes aren't on you; its head is rested against the ground, and it's staring blankly ahead with all the indifference of something that's absolutely given up. "Let's say you do manage to fix me. Great. Cool. That means I can fight for you some more, get beaten up some more, probably die, and still be stuck in this foul place."

The poor thing sounds so... defeated. For a moment, your mind casts back to when you'd first met the stoat; to when it had first spoken to you, to when it had told you there was a way out of this place.

To when it had given you hope, during a time you'd felt scared and hopeless.

"...There's a way out," you say idly, cutting a strip of the bandage off, holding it up as you gauge if it's the right size or not. "For both of us."

You glance at the creature out of the corner of your eye, to find it now staring back at you, eyes slightly widened.

"You... remembered what I told you," it says slowly, as though it hadn't expected such a thing. For a moment, the animal looks genuinely surprised... before it scoffs, its usual demeanour returning. "Oh, what an honour."

A slight chuckle escapes you, and you move closer in preparation to start your work. "Don't maul me, okay?"

"Look at me. Do I look like I could hurt you right now?"

...It has a point.

Carefully, very carefully, you wrap the poor little thing in bandages. You only wish you had some kind of antiseptic medicine or disinfectant or something; whatever had happened, it looked severe.

"I didn't notice this happening..." you say, your voice tinged with regret and sympathy.

"...Don't beat yourself up about it," the Stoat mumbles. "The Trapper got a hold of me after you'd went to sleep for the night. Something something 'if I can't get that fine wolf's pelt, then stoat pelt will have to do,' or whatever."

It's not something you mean to do, but you can't help but chuckle at the creature's impression of the strange individual. It was surprisingly accurate...

"You like that?" The stoat sounds just a bit more lively. Idly, you wonder if it's proud of itself. "Heh. When you've heard someone speak a million times, you get pretty acquainted with how they speak. Too acquainted, by now..."

Your hands tie up the bandages, making sure the animal's stomach is entirely covered. "We'll get through this. We both will," you assure it, reaching your pinky out to gently stroke its head.

It gives a huff, but... you're pretty sure you can feel it leaning into your finger.

"Do you reckon you can stand?" you ask. "I'll carry you if you can't--"

"I'm fine," the creature interjects, little paws settling flat on the ground, limbs trembling as it tries to stand itself up. "I'm... mostly fine." It takes a shaky step forward, and then another, and then... promptly falls down onto its now bandaged-up stomach. "Ow. Yeah, I'm probably not fine. Carry me."

Nodding, you very carefully scoop the little thing up... With the way you've tied the bandages, you idly realise it looks vaguely like a gift-wrapped present with a bow on top; you're suddenly quite glad it can't see, since you've no doubt it would've given you a tongue-lashing for that.

You hold the stoat carefully in one arm, slinging your bag across the other shoulder, and you steadily stand once more. "You ready to go, buddy?"

It had closed its eyes at some point, but one of them peeks open to look up at you. You're not sure how, but it seems to be frowning. "...'Buddy?'"

You shrug helplessly... "Felt like a 'buddy' moment," you give a little laugh.

You didn't know stoats could roll their eyes; but mind you, you didn't know they could talk before you met this one either, so you shouldn't be surprised. "I'm more than ready to get out of here. So ready."

"Then let's go."

Slowly, you begin the walk back to the rest of your creatures. You're quite ready to get out of this place yourself... Although the journey has been exciting, and you've made a few great animal buddies, you're also looking forward to getting back to safety.

...As you walk, you're quite sure you can hear a very quiet, barely mumbled 'thank you' from the bandaged-up bundle in your arms.

You choose not to say anything about it.

(That's something else the creature would no doubt give you a telling-off for if it knew.)

How about the scrybes with someone’s who’s super nice and sweet to all of them?

Sorry for the wait, had to get on my laptop to write all this Scribes with a very kind S/O (gender neutral reader) Warnings: none

Leshy: - He's very happy to have somebody around - Living in the cabin alone used to get pretty boring, and while he could talk to prospector, angler, or any of the sorts, he'd rather have somebody like you to hang out with - He even learns how to cook better so you get a good meal in, he knows others don't take well to his meat cake, so might as well learn something new - He loves teaching you new things, whether it be about the wildlife, his card games, or even his camera. Although he keeps it where you can't touch it, and uses his replica to explain it PO3 - At first he reacted coldly to you, as he would with anybody else - It was complicated, he wasn't programmed with many emotions in mind, love wasn't one of them. He was made to play card games, and be proud of how good he is at them - Overtime he upgrades himself and learns emotions to better connect with you - He's not always the best at it, but he tries Grimora - Def one of the sweetest when it comes to the four scribes, and the most social - She loves showing you off, even if it's just bragging about you to her ghost friends - Loves tea time with you, and if you don't like tea she's happy to make you something else. Whatever you want she'll provide - Often she'll show off the new masks the woodcarver made for her, and talks about new ideas for future matches with other challengers with you. Feel free to chime in and add ideas, she loves hearing suggestions! Magnificus - Surprisingly or unsurprisingly, he's the least social out of the four - When he fell for you though, he fell hard, even he can admit that - And when you're sweet to him? He falls even harder for you - Straight up head over heels for you (Does he have feet? Does he just shuffle around? Eh either way) - Loves to make paintings for you, he wants to show off his talents! If you ask nicely he'll even let you paint!
