Sora hated STS. Hated the fucking people who had done this to him.
He ran his fingers over his slender back, feeling the bumpy and healed scars of where his spider appendages had all but been ripped out, leaving his skin to ooze a brilliant emerald colour. Oh, how he missed them. A part of him had been taken away, taken by those fucking people in fucking lab coats and fucking gloves and-
Words just couldn't describe it. A part of him was missing; metaphorically and literally. All because they wanted to figure out what made him so... special. Unique.
His eyes — well, the ones on his face — drifted down his arm where, amongst a masterpiece of scars and bruises on his charcoal skin, lay hundreds upon hundreds of eyes. Now useless. Blind.
He knew he rarely used them anyway; they were pointless. But, the fact that those researchers — no, those monsters — had just gouged them out without a beat of hesitation sickened him to his stomach.
He was lost in his thoughts, but the soft whirring of his cell door opening snapped him out of his melancholy moment. Blinding light flooded into the dimly lit room.
"Hello, '07."

It is a nightmare beyond human comprehension. It lurks in the subconscious of all who view its amalgamated, distorted figure of black goo and spider appendages; of luminescent green eyes splattered wildly across its void like flesh; of its tall figure hiding, waiting, looming in the shadows of its cell. It takes no true form, forever changing and forever altering and forever being. It is present, it is past, and it is future. It has always been, and will proceed to be until someone finds a way to euthanize it. Though all attempts have been futile.
Its face is a mess of soot black hair and emerald eyes, seeing nothing but everything at once. Its mere presence strikes dread into even the most stoic of researchers, yet the comfort it emits simultaneously is soothingly, sickeningly soft.
It is beautiful. It is frightful. It is everything, but nothing. It is loud, but then again, its movements are silent, like a small gust of wind or a phantom sensation lingering on the flesh of your arm, sending goosebumps across your delicate, mortal skin.
It is everything STS Laboratories wanted to research.

OOH OOHOOHOOH OKAY SO y'know how like- the Ramirez siblings manifested in different places in the world (Vantè in Ireland, Sora in Denmark, Ryn in Britain (I think??) etc etc)?? and like- I remember you mentioning that none of the siblings except for Helodite remember their life before their initial manifestation-
soooo, did the Ramirez siblings not originally know about each other?? did they only really find out that they had siblings when they came across STS, or did things happen in an entirely different way to make them meet?
Oooo ooo okay uh-
So like- even when they arrived at STS, they weren’t even entirely sure they were related at all, and STS intended to keep it that way, until Helodite’s arrival.
Helodite caused a site-wide breach within just weeks of being there by fucking up their security systems and making the whole system go haywire. When she helped the others escape, she then informed them that they were relatives.
They didn’t believe her at first, obviously, but after some hefty explaining, they believed her. Chris wanted to go back for Sora, but Helodite stopped him, given Sora was held in - and still is held in - Specialised Site 001 (SS-01).
In theory this could also mean Sora doesn’t know that he’s related to the others, nor even aware of their existence at all. Or, at the most, he knows he has siblings, he just doesn’t know how many or who they are.

@britishtranskid suggested i make sora nsfw headcanons so here we go-
cw/tw: cursing (obviously), light cnc, bondage/restriction, choking, just- the whole fucking works, tbh, It Sex, read at your own discretion
Dominant HC’s
•Sora’s a switch, more familiar with being a dom because admitting he likes subbing more makes him so nervous that he just. doesn’t.
•In the case that his partner is okay with it, saying literally anything like “no more”, “slow down”, etc etc will just make him do the complete opposite or just ignore them. Either or.
•Fucking loves to tie his partner down and use them. Loves to see them squirm and struggle and pull their restraints as he fucks deeper into them.
•If he can’t tie them down (for whatever reason that may be), he’ll hold their shoulders down, or hold their hips in place, stuff like that.
•Also loves to wrap his hand/hands around his partner’s throat while using them. (Of course, he’s educated himself on how to do this safely. You do not have to worry about Sora accidentally choking you to death.)
•If you allow him to, he probably will not stop talking. He’s very verbal and he’s not entirely sure why, and most of the time he doesn’t even realise he’s speaking.
•Isn’t 100% familiar with the concept of soft sex, but will try if you ask him to.
Submissive HC’s
•Absolutely loves being thrown around and used like he’s nothing. He doesn’t care, can only think about being used.
•The bigger the better is a bullshit concept to him.
•Will let you rail him however and wherever you want, he really doesn’t mind.Doesn’t care about ‘public indecency’. Will quite literally do anything for cock.
•Absolutely drools over femdoms (but he’ll never admit it).
•Constantly needs to be holding onto something, whether it be his partner, a pillow, a large plushie, just something he can wrap his arms around.
•Sort of nervous at first, i.e reluctant to strip or do certain things, but as he grows more used to you he’ll become more bratty. Will definitely enjoy impact play, whipping, etc as a punishment.
•Lots of whimpering and whining. Gets very vocal sometimes. Doesn’t waste time getting it known what he wants (although there’s no obligation to do so immediately.)

Kingdom Hearts IV predictions
Radiator Springs/Dinoco Rust-eze Racing Center/Fireball Beach/Thunder Hollow/Thomasville/Florida International Speedway (Cars)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Takes place after Cars 3.
Is visited by Sora.
It isn’t combat based. Missions include keeping up with McQueen’s top speed by racing down Radiator Springs’ main street, learning how to turn right to go left at Willy’s Butte, driving backwards with Mater, keeping up with Cruz’s top speed on Fireball Beach, avoiding pushy competitors with the Thunder Hollow challengers, and practicing with Cruz at Thomasville, culminating in the Piston Cup race at Florida International Speedway, where the objective is to win against Jackson Storm.
Sora enters the world as a custom-made car mixing a few real-life sports car models before visits to Luigi’s Casa Della Tires and Ramone’s House of Body Art end with him modified into a next-gen race car sponsored by Dinoco (with Tex’s blessing) and with Cruz’s number.
It’s set during Cruz’s first Piston Cup racing season, so McQueen still has Doc’s colors and spends the Florida race as Sora’s crew chief. Also, Ramone wears his “Saludos Amigos” body paint from the epilogue of Cars 3.
As Sora finishes his story, Mater is certainly unhappy with Xehanort’s actions forcing Sora’s hand. “That dad-gum Xehanort”, he says angrily. Extra points if Sora doesn’t get to the part where Xehanort is dead, then Sarge gets in his face and demands him to teach Xehanort a lesson when he gets back in a militaristic manner. “Is that understood,” Sarge yells. Then Sora tries to correct him, but gets cut off and asked again, “Is that understood,” and has to respond, “Sir, yes, sir!”
Of course, during the top speed races, Luigi is the one to signal the race to begin.
In the Radiator Springs race, Sora’s top speed is tracked by Sheriff’s speed radar, and on Fireball Beach, it’s via Cruz’s personal assistant, Hamilton.
If you fail the “Turn Right to go Left” mission, Sora goes flying into the bed of cacti, and Mater fishes him out.
“I don’t like to toot my own horn, but…” (HONKS TWICE) “Toot my own horn. That’s funny right there.” - Sir Tow Mater, beginning his backwards driving lesson, 2017
I know I’ll get hate for this, but Cars 2 elements are here. Heck, maybe Mater can’t be present most for the training because he’s busy with Finn and Holley. After all, does he still owe Holley a first date?
I wanted the player character in this world to be Kairi just so Storm can feel the embarrassment of losing to not one, but two “costume girls”.
The Piston Cup race is announced as a 500-lap race, but no game developer is that malicious to force the player to race 500 laps around an oval, so they’d take after the first Cars game and make it twelve laps with the sun slowly lowering throughout the race.

Tag you're it!
Tagged by @aragarna. Thank you <3
Rules: Post the last seven sentences from one of your WIPs! I’m not going to say it has to be the absolute last seven sentences you’ve written - just from something you’re still working on.
There you go:
“I'm afraid, Señora Alvarado, you are one of those women who believe that their beauty allows them to do everything.
“What if so?”
“I do not share this point of view. At the Presidio, my rules currently apply.”
“Really? Didn’t it occur to you, Señor Lieutenant, that you also behave like a handsome man who is allowed everything?”
“‘Sobra el ser hombre ya para culpado’ [It is enough to be a man to be blamed © Lope de Vega]”, Ramirez grinned.
Tumblr media
(This is a dialogue from the eleventh(?) chapter of my WDZ fanfic “The Curse of Monterrey”. Señora Alvarado is a young widow, the mistress of the commandant of the capital of California, Cpt. Enrique Sánchez Monastario, Lt. Ramirez is Monastario’s deputy and friend. At the moment the Comandante is staying at his rancho near Los Angeles, so Ramirez acts as the commandant of the capital.)
Thank you for the tag! Tagging @sora-almasy-drawings and whoever else wants to share! With no obligation to play, of course.

How about doing a list of potential video game characters for a 40 type fanfic? Just which characters you would pick. Original Video Game characters can count as well. And sequels to video games.

A little thingy about Helix in lieu of it being six years since the incident with TS-0007 “Sora”.
Tumblr media
Characters used/Mentioned: Helix and Gale Vellen (OCs), Sora Ramirez (OC), Darius Barlowe ( @inkwell-and-dagger ‘s OC), Administrator Simon (OC)
A/N: rah!! i figured out how to make banners!! procreate my lord and saviour.
STANDARD DISCLAIMERS APPLY.
≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠≠
Around 4AM, March 5, 2018, Helix’s beloved wife, Gale, died in his arms after being brutally injured by escaped Test Subject 0007 “Sora”. It was now 8:16AM, March 5th, 6 years after the event, and Helix had been up all night.
Every single time this day came around, it threw him for a loop for weeks. He missed Gale so fucking much. It wasn’t fair that she was taken from him. It wasn’t fucking fair.
He looked up at the sound of gentle knocking on his door, sighing and wiping his tears on his sleeve. “Door’s unlocked.”
He was surprised, however, to see fellow researcher Dr. Darius, and Administrator Simon. The two had happened to be part of the 20 that called in sick the day ‘07 breached. “…Darius, Simon. Morning.”
“Don’t do that, Helix.” Simon said, albeit softly.
Helix paused, confused at both the statement and the Admin’s tone. “…Pardon?” He asked.
Darius closed the door, sighing. “…Today’s a rough day for you, isn’t it?”
Helix’s eyes flashed with a mix of emotions he didn’t quite understand, and he sighed, eyes wandering. “…yeah, I… I just miss her.”
“And you’re in every right to” Administrator Simon added. “She was your wife, for Hell’s sake. You can’t be expected to work today.”
“But the Specialists-“
“Fuck the Specialists” Simon snapped. “They’re not allowed to do shit if it’s us intervening with your work day. Come on, I brought wine.”
Helix snickered, getting up as Darius urged him out of his chair. “Are you sure this is a good idea?”
“Positive” The two said in unison, leading Helix out of his office.

I <3 Sora Ramirez. You know what time it is, boys bi's and bugs
That's right, another very rushed piece of writing for the beloved @an-author-and-his-characters, starring, you bloody guessed it, the eldtrich horror himself, Sora. Oh boy.
(do note I have no clue what I'm doing, I just had an idea and I'm writing it down. I have no clue how STS containment breaches work (also just realized this mini story isn't canonically possible considering Sora's in a heavily guarded and practically inescapable site all for himself, but shhhhh))
====================================
Sora towered above the mass of bloodied corpses of staff at his feet, his glimmering green eyes scanning the heavens above for what felt like the first time.
And it probably was the first time, too.
All he could remember was the lab he'd been trapped in for about 52 centuries now. All the brutal tests, examinations, the restless nights spent laying in his cell, every muscle in his body aching. The tiresome days of clawing at the walls, hoping upon hope that maybe, just fucking maybe, he'll be able to get out of the hellhole that was his prison.
And now he'd finally done it.
All the torture, the suffering, the days and nights, the weeks, months, years of utter pain, had finally led him to this very moment.
Looming above the bruised pile of his torturers, the researchers, the guards, Sora realized that he had won.
Sora Cyrus Ramirez, the God of divination in the Pyrathos religion,
Finally reigned victorious.

<+> The Ramirez Family <+>
CW/TW: workaholic(?), implied murder, mentions of blood, mentions of bladed weapons, That Fear of Eyes Or Whatever, mentions of chemicals(?), implications of death(?), implied abandonment, implied isolation.
(Note there’s more I may not have noticed or not been able to label, but uh- yeah. just be careful. (also (?) means i didn’t know if it was the right wording or something i had to warn for but did anyway))
Author’s note: Very vaguely inspired by Something to Hide by grandson? I dunno I got bored. It was originally meant to be poetry but I gave up. Uh- I also tried to organise them by age order! I eventually found the note that listed their ages so that’s cool.
=====================================
His jaw is set and his word is final, yet his crown sits crooked on his head and there’s dark intentions that linger behind his eyes. Deceiving, vicious, cruel. He calls himself a ruler but he cowers behind his guards like a shield. If I were you, I wouldn’t consider even trusting him for or about anything.
Gentle voice and hands as soft as a Mother’s touch, she was a regalia of perfection and formality. A sweet bliss and an easy life. But if only people knew what she did once the curtains close. Oh, if only they knew.
A mess of bright green and inky black, limbs and eyes, things I can’t quite put the words to. A creature of Hell itself, sentient but terrifyingly savage. Misunderstood isn’t a label it falls under anymore, and in my honest opinion it never was in the first place.
A demon with a voice of gold and a tongue of silver. A frightening elegance and a distressing grace. It knows what it wants, and what it wants it gets. Unhindered, ethereal. Blood on it’s clawed hands and roses in it’s razor teeth. Charming and terrifying. It’s like there’s two personalities behind those glowing eyes that somehow work in harmony with each other.
Her retreat is sanitary halls, buzzing lights, whirring machinery and chemicals that probably weren’t verified by any branch of official. But her choice comes with a price. Isolation, a sense of guilt. A life of work and strain and fatigue and more work and more work and more work and-
Innocence and wide eyes, he sees the world like a small child. Colours and shapes and simplicity. A comfortable, easy lie. Sure, he has his moments, anybody at his age would, but his persistence breeds progress. He’s sort of like a puppy, really.
She’s just so… pure. And warm. She’s like a safe haven, a place to feel welcomed and protected and wanted. Hair like a cherry blossom and eyes like the sky they grow below. Her voice is soft, reassuring, and reminds me of a cup of hot chocolate after a long day.
A heavy blade but a heart of gold, he’s a picture of romance and charisma. Natural charm, sleek and beautiful. What else could you want from a man? He’s a sweetheart really, very kind hearted. If they could there’d be a whole lot of people bowing at his feet. Not that he’d ever want that flattery.
Everything just feels so new to him. He doesn’t quite understand anything that’s happening and he feels lost. He just wants guidance, someone to hear his desperate cries for help, but there’s always no response. There’s never anybody there to help him, to hold his hand and show him what to do. He’s scared, and he’s fully accepted it at this point.
Those that were forgotten? Or otherwise discarded? Oh, don’t you worry about them. I’m sure you’ll find them somewhere else. They’re around. Most of them at least.

Picture the scene, its Ethan not Diana, who is caught up in the senator attack. What changes from canon? Does she tell him she loves him?
Hi anon! I am so sorry it took me so long, but I turned this into a fic, because I felt I could explain it better this way, I hope you don't mind ❤
HIRAETH
Book : Open Heart book 2
Pairing : Ethan Ramsey x Diana Ramirez
Notable Characters : Sienna Trinh, Rafael Aveiro
Word Count : 960 words
Rating : General
Category : Angst with happy ending, AU
Trope : One of them has an illness, And there is a confession
Warning : Mention of character death.
Summary : An alternate turn of events during the maitotoxin attack seen through four different eyes.
A/N : I have a very particular timeline (with dates) for all events in the Oph universe and therefore this is completely an AU.
Tumblr media
Rafael
A million things play in his head as he crosses the seventh floor.
Brazil. Sora. The suspension letter he couldn't show his Vovo. His friends. Sienna's tear stained eyes, the smile falling from Elijah's face, Jackie slowly turning away her head. Diana's crestfallen expression. The life he was leaving behind.
He has only two last people to bid goodbye to.
Ethan and Bryce.
Two unexpected friendships.
A doctor, A surgeon and a paramedic….. well ex-paramedic, he thinks bitterly.
When he meets Ethan it's far from how he had expected it to go. He barely hears his instruction to alert security as he runs beside him to catch up to his frantic footfalls. And then it's pandemonium.
The crazed eyes of a killer.
The pleas of a politician.
A black cannister.
A single shove.
Silence.
….
Somewhere in his poison addled brain he hears a plane taking off towards an adventure that stay unattainable to dying men.
Tumblr media
Ethan
He had stopped praying when he was twelve and his mother hadn't returned from the grocery store for thirteen months.
He had come close to it that night in Miami. He had sent a fervent prayer to her as their lips had drowned in each other under the endless expanse of stars above them.
His lips had formed yet another the night after her hearing.
Somehow prayers had become equivalent to her. Diana's touch and the swirling brown that turned obsidian under the single sliver of moonlight that had fallen in the room.
And today he sent another as Naveen had to stop her from entering the room, from breathing the same nameless poison that ran in his veins.
As tears pooled in those clear twinkling browns, he thought of things he never told her. Things he would never tell her again.
He needed to tell her that he was sorry.
That he shouldn't have pushed her away.
That he wouldn't be his mother who left without explanations.
That he cared― no loved her beyond what his cowardly heart could comprehend.
He needed to give her the lunchbox of food cooked together that he kept in his desk.
As he sunk down the glass door of the room, his feet too weak to hold him any longer, he thought only of her and the words he wanted to tell her.
She's a poet's last poem of the words he couldn't say.
Tumblr media
Sienna
When she was young her grandmother read her fairytales. They all ended in happily ever-afters, With the prince marrying the princess and the evil witches killed in rainstorms.
And young-her would dream of such tales.
As they led Danny away, she thinks perhaps she wasn't meant for fairy tales.
But she knows someone who still has a chance at it. Someone who is currently staring down the most powerful man in Boston.
Someone who refuses to back away without learning the location of Travis.
And in that moment she decides one of them would get the happy ending she so craved. Mirroring Diana from when she stood by her side rebuking Wayne, Sienna does what she does the best, smiles and tells the Senator exactly what he wants to hear.
Tumblr media
Diana
She now knows how he had felt when Naveen was dying.
How she couldn't save the ones who mattered, not Mrs. Martinez, not Danny, not Rafael and not Ethan.
Her fingers are stained in chemicals, a broken nail from when she had punched the wall and a dozen crumpled papers littered the lab. Stained with words she couldn't even read through the haze of her tears.
It is now that she truly feels out of her depth, like a child playing a game of pretend. Her shaking hand measuring yet another probable antidote reminds her of all the things she hasn't learned. All the things he needs to teach her since the day he steadied her shaking scalpel.
She needs him to tell her what to do.
She needs her mentor.
She needs him.
….
That night they hold each other through the distance of a hazmat suit. And she doesn't know who comforts the other.
That night she tells him things.
She tells him about the three sleepless nights when she was eighteen, reading his book for the first time.
She tells him about his grey sweater at the back of her closet.
She tells him about her family, about childhood holidays.
She tells him about the replacement cactus she bought him that currently grows on her windowsill.
And all along three words run in her head and heart and her entire being.
Three words she clings to with a hope of them seeing another morning together. In a future where he holds her hand in the dark and they trade lazy kisses in early mornings.
And slowly she drifts off to sleep in his arms.
…..
She is once again in the lab as he watches the last marker of toxin washing away from the sampled blood.
Something like hope fights to rush out of her restrained realism.
Diana has always processed things in numbers. Always calculating the order of occurrences.
When she tells him about the success of the antidote, the first thing he does is walk towards her, his steps a little dazed, in battle with his restraint. The second thing he does is ask about Raf. The third thing he does is hug her, hold her so closely that they both forget the plastic barrier that was between them a few hours ago.
The forth thing he does is whisper three words over and over, in a broken prayer and a whispered wish….
I love you…. Once, I love you….. Twice, I love you….. Thrice, I love you....
And that's when she stops counting and whispers back the words.
Tumblr media
A/N : As it can be seen I write one fic then I vanish from the face of the earth and I am really sorry for that. I still have engineering entrances till July end, but I'll try and be more active after that.
