Heya! Would it be possible to request a short story with Aemond and a painfully shy lady? Like where he thinks that she hates him or that she doesn't care about him just because she cannot bring herself to speak to him and it kinda turns him on when he realizes that she has a huge crush on him? Thank you very much, you are the best (⁠ ⁠˘⁠ ⁠³⁠˘⁠)⁠♥
Run From Me ~ Aemond x Reader
word count: 1.8k
warnings: sensual themes
note: love this request! was fun to write, and I needed some softness!
Aemond had always known he was not destined to be the prince the poets wrote songs about. Since the taking of his eye, he was cursed with the knowledge that he would always feared, always shied away from by the women of the court. 
He knew it was true, he watched how Helaena’s ladies drew away from him, quickening their pace when passing him the halls. Averted their eyes from his face. Even though he had taken it upon himself to hide his ruined eye beneath a patch, they still seemed fearful of the dragon prince. 
If they shall treat me like a monster, a monster I shall become. 
You were the shyest of them all, visibly shaking in his presence. Helaena’s favorite lady, nearly attached at her hip always. Aemond would make polite conversation with his dear sister and you would cling to her skirts, drifting behind her like a silent shadow, cheeks flushed, eyes downcast. 
Aemond did not know what to make of you. The disgust you must feel for him was too painful to imagine. 
Though after a particularly frustrating moment with you, Aemond decided to seek comfort from his sister. 
“She ran from me,” he told her, sitting in front of the fireplace.
Helaena stopped her needlepoint; she had been working diligently on finishing the jade-colored scorpion per Jaehaera’s request. Her lovely brow knits together at her brother’s words.
“Whatever are you talking about?” she asks. 
“Your lady,” Aemond tells her, rubbing the scarred tissue below his eyepatch.
The incident Aemond refers to happened earlier in the day. He had nearly walked into you as you hurried in from the stables. 
Aemond fervently apologized, earning a small squeak from you as you hastily turned on your heel and fled in the opposite direction. 
“I do not understand what else I must do,” Aemond says, closing his eye.
Helaena purses her lips together tightly, a smile threatening to overtake her. Aemond opens his eye, looking at her. He frowns.
“What?” he asks.
“Oh Aemond,” she says, laughing slightly. 
“What is it?” he asks again, confused about what is laughable about this torment. 
“I should not be telling you this,” Helaena admits, “I have been sworn to secrecy.”
“But you shall tell me anyway because you are my sister,” Aemond says.
“I cannot.”
“I am your blood,” Aemond insists.
“Oh hush you dramatic fool,” she teases, causing Aemond to flush slightly at his elder sister’s scolding.
“Please, Hel,” Aemond begs, “I cannot stand it. This fear, this hatred-”
“She does not hate you, brother,” Helaena interrupts.
Aemond closes his mouth, then opens it again, his confusion is evident on his face.
“What do you mean?” he asks. 
“She is rather fond of you,” Helaena admits, “She thinks you are roguishly handsome.”
Aemond is at a loss for words. Never in his life did he think a lady, especially one so beautiful as yourself, would think him handsome.  
“You jest,” Aemond says, brushing off her words.
Helaena raises an eyebrow.
“Shall I go on?” Helaena asks.
Aemond waves a hand, encouraging her to continue, but attempting to remain composed. He can feel his heart beating wildly against his ribs. You think he is handsome. 
“She told me she cannot bear to look at you,” Helaena admits. 
For a moment, Aemond’s heart sinks, he feels his worst fears have come true. You are afraid. You are disgusted. 
“She finds your mouth too enticing,” Helaena continues, “Every time you speak of your studies she cannot focus on the words that you speak.”
Aemond feels a blush blooming on his cheeks. 
“The rest I shall not tell you - do not look at me like that! It is a discussion only ladies may have in the safety of one another,” Helaena insists.
“About my mouth?” he asks.
“About things, a sister should not be partial in hearing about her younger brother,” Helaena says, shivering slightly, “Though I do adore her so much, I allow her to voice her lustful thoughts.”
“Lustful?” Aemond asks, and Helaena slams her mouth shut, “Surely we are not talking about the same lady.”
How could you be lustful of him? Of anything? You appeared so painfully shy Aemond doubted you wished for marriage or love at all.
“Women hold many secrets within them,” Helaena says, being careful with her words, “You must understand, women have desires as men do. We are just taught to hide them. To not indulge in them beyond the privacy of our chambers.”
“And what does your lady indulge in, exactly?” Aemond asks, desperate to know. 
Helaena purses her lips.
“She is fond of literature,” she admits, “Literature that should not be read outside of one’s quarters.” 
Aemond stares back at Helaena. She sighs dramatically. 
“Men,” she murmurs, shaking her head, “Stories, Aemond, erotic stories.”
Tumblr media
“May the Maiden protect my lovely granddaughter’s virtue, along with all the sweet doves that reside within the walls of the Red Keep and those beyond,” Alicent finishes her prayer, and you feel your cheeks flush. 
You wonder how virtuous Queen Alicent would think you were, had she known what you were up to. You hadn’t meant to read it, you’d told yourself you were done indulging in such filth, but as you were scouring the library the previous afternoon, the title caught your eye. 
A Cautionary Tale for Young Girls.
Surely, it was a book you should be reading. A tale of caution, and you were a young girl. Innocent enough, perhaps? So you brought the book to your chambers and began reading when you returned from supping with the royal family. 
You had stayed awake, eyes wide, until all the candles in your room had melted to small nubs. Even then, you brought yourself to the window, squinting at the pages in the moonlight. Reading all about Lady Coryanne Wylde and her debauchery. The text was intriguing and left a dull ache between your legs that even sleep could not calm. Only when your hands drifted below your silk nightgown, stroking the wet patch on your small clothes did you find any semblance of relief. 
Your palms were sweaty as you were dismissed from the Sept. You needed to return the book before it was found in your chambers. As you returned you plucked the text from its hiding place below your bed, sneaking toward the library. 
The great room appeared to be empty as you crept towards the shelves that lay toward the back of the room. Pushing past scrolls, you found the empty slot where the book had been taken by you. Another title caught your eye as you held the book in the air. Sins of the Flesh. Blush blooms on your cheeks as you contemplate repeating your own sin from the previous night. 
“What are you reading?” Aemond says, plucking the book with the effort of yanking a flower from its stem.
Panic surges through you. A small whimper escapes your lips as you trail behind him. 
“Aemond please give it back,” you beg, following him through the stacks.
It is the first time you’ve spoken to him, the first time he’s heard his name drip like honey from your lips. Aemond closes his eye at the sound of your small voice. He stops walking and you nearly collide with his back, before he turns to face you. 
You reach your hand up but he holds the book above his head, out of reach. Even standing on the tips of your toes does no good. 
“A young lady such as yourself should not be reading such debauchery,” Aemond chastises, clicking his tongue in disapproval.
Your cheeks burn, humiliation wrapping a fist around your throat as you desperately try to retrieve the book from his grasp. The hot feeling of shame curls in your stomach, and tears begin to form in your eyes, clouding your vision. 
“I was only looking,” you tell him, though the lie does not sound convincing. 
Aemond raises a brow at you. You’re shaking like a leaf, and you cast your eyes away from him. 
“It is alright, my lady,” he says, surprising you, “I myself am fond of literature.”
Your eyes flicker to his face. Aemond opens the book, picking a page. 
“Ah yes, here it is,” he says as if he’s found the page he wanted, “The tale of Coryanne Wylde should be read with caution, as it is known once a woman indulges in sin it is nearly impossible to recover.”
You stare at him, cheeks flushed, breathing ragged. Aemond glances up at you.
“Tell me, my lady, have you indulged in sinful behavior?” he asks, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.
It is hard to breathe, your voice feels caught in your throat as it often does when you are in his presence. 
“M-m-my prince?” you manage, while averting your gaze. 
You choose to focus on a spot on the floor in front of you, heart thumping like a rabbit’s foot. You’re sure you’re shaking by now, and force yourself to clasp your hands behind your back. You wet your lips, as Aemond brings his hand to your chin, forcing you to look at him. 
“Have you indulged yourself?” he asks, voice a rough murmur. 
The way he looks at you makes your stomach flip, it’s almost too much to bear being under his eye this way. All his attention focused on you, those beautiful lips you’ve dreamt of, imagined doing such sinful acts to you. It’s too much. 
“I do not understand,” you whimper, as he caresses your cheek.
“Allow me to enlighten you, then,” Aemond purrs, before bringing his lips to yours in a searing kiss. 
Though you’re trembling against him he manages to wrap his hand around your waist, guiding you back against the bookshelves, deepening the kiss. You’re too nervous to move, you don’t want to ruin it, don’t want him to stop. Gods don’t let him stop. You’re holding your hands up in shock still, curled into fists near your head as he continues to kiss you. 
“Touch me,” he murmurs against your mouth, as his hand paws at your waist. 
You slowly lower your forearms to rest against his shoulders before succumbing to the desire to wrap your arms around his neck; fingers tangling in his silky, silver locks. His tongue darts through your lips, slipping into your mouth pulling forth a breathy moan. 
Aemond moves his lips away then, letting them dance along the line of your jaw, down to your neck. Kissing, nipping the tender flesh of your throat until you’re whimpering against him.
“Tell me,” he purrs, “Tell me what you want.”
Fire. There is fire coursing through your veins. Fire licking its way over your skin, flames consuming you whole. That’s what it feels like, what he feels like.
“Just you,” you sigh, as he connects your lips again. 
“Always you.”

how does your version of the Phantom Ruby work?
Tumblr media
Oh buddy you're in for one hell of a ramble.
I don't care that this is stuff I wanted to reveal in my Forces retelling- I'm babbling about it neow! Besides, I have no idea when I'll be motivated enough to continue my actual canon adjacent au, SO WE CAN HAVE FUN WITH THIS!
Tw: blood
Okay, so the Phantom Ruby is an ancient artifact hidden in a pyramid in Regal Ruin Zone (Sonic R Stage because I really do hate it when zones are just a one and done thing, not overused like Green Hill Zone per say, but I want to actually explore the zones instead of just zooming by them for about 4 minutes total).
A legend says that if you sacrifice some of your blood to it, it will grant you the power to make your wishes a reality. Zero (I'm going with the headcanon that Infinites name used to be Zero) was a huge fan of this legend, he heard about it when he was doing some bounty hunts near the zone.
When you give the Phantom Ruby your blood, you and it are locked together until the blood supply is used up. Only the blood user can use the Phantom Ruby.
The Phantom Ruby is a sentient gemstone (haha, watch me make every single gemstone in Sonic sentient gods), but it lies dormant until someone feeds it blood. Because the Ruby doesn't want to go back to sleep for who knows how long, it starts whispering things into the users mind, feeding thoughts into their head to make them use the ruby more. To give it more blood, to be consumed by the lust for power.
The legend told of a god who was banished and imprisoned into the ruby. Centuries later a crow mobian found the ruby and brought it to their travel group an echidna, a leopard, a tortoise, and a scorpion. They were ambushed later that night and the crow bled onto the ruby in the battle. They realized it had the power to grant wishes, and the crow grew insane with it's power, becoming consumed by the ruby.
The other members of the group realized they need to stop the crow and cut its connection with the ruby, so they begged the gods to give them a way to save the crow. In turn, the gods gave each member a gemstone blessed by different gods a citrine, jade, amethyst, and an onyx. With the gemstones powers, they managed to save the crow from the ruby and lock it deep in a pyramid covered in complex traps and curses as to keep people away from the cursed Phantom Ruby.
Eventually, the group disbanded, with each of the members who helped save the crow carrying the gemstone they had with them as they all scattered to the different corners of the planet.
Ehem- now past this goes into the plot I have for Infinite in my Forces retelling, so you can skip this if you want.
Zero managed to get past all the traps in the pyramid and capture the Phantom Ruby for a bounty he accepted from a mysterious person who wouldn't reveal their identity. This however led to him getting the Phantom Ruby inserted into his chest and have it drive him insane with the whispers it constantly had speaking in his head. He snapped, going completely insane and mindlessly following the voice. He became Infinite, the vessel for the god of illusion.
The legend wasn't lying, as he continues to abuse it's power, the Phantom Ruby slowly started to consume him. Literally. The Phantom Ruby slowly turns his body into it as he uses the power. The process is accelerated when The Resistance begins to be able to push back after the 6 months, making him use his illusions more.
It's up to The Resistance to find the legend of the Phantom Ruby, get the citrine, jade, amethyst, and onyx (names still deciding on), and stop Infinite (and Eggman).
Thank you for letting me ramble about this! I tried to hold myself back a little bit at least from spoiling some of the plot I have for the retelling because I don't wanna ruin the story (if it ever gets made) by spoiling everything about the Phantom Ruby.

Primaveral (Pt 1.) Summary:  
“Your first kiss usually isn’t anything special.” Something in his chest tightens, mostly because the idea of Princess Zelda herself whining for a kiss is proving to be far too stimulating a notion. “It’s really just something to get over with. Really, no one’s first kiss is a good one.” “Oh.” Zelda goes quiet, curiosity muted and replaced with a scintillating silence that promises something more. Link lowers his guard down, and his shoulders have only just settled a smidge before her soft request has tension knotting in them once again. “So,” she drones, fingers mindlessly clamping around the stray scorpion grass along her thighs, “if it isn’t anything special…might you be willing to kiss me, then?”
Words: 6.7k Pairing: Zelink Rating: E, for sexual content
Written for @cooking-with-hailstones for Midna's Merry Mixup! You can also read on Ao3 here:
Beneath dappled light, something in the wind changes. 
“I have a question.”
There is something potentially devastating in Zelda’s voice when she says it. Her tone is flat, like an ocean blanketed by the lull of warm air; the calm before a promised storm. In the shade of the old oak tree, she sits at attention, her hands folded demurely upon her lap, and in spite of how prim she looks perched amongst the cornflower splash of sleepy forget-me-nots, an unmistakable flash of mischief thunders across sea green eyes. 
At her right, her knight attendant’s finely tuned ears catch the way her voice intones, and it’s enough to send his stomach twisting with a trepidation that’s usually reserved for journeys far more perilous than a brief excursion to the plains. Crisp narrow blue flares with a gentle warning, but he stays silent—a familiar invitation for her to carry on.
“You promise you’ll be honest with me?” His princess wiggles gloved fingers upon her lap and cants her head to the side, her voice deliciously bright with all the spirit of a skylark on the wing.
An impassive Link finds himself pressed up against the tree beside her, his leg extended with one foot tucked beneath the other as though he’s settled upon an extravagant chaise and not the earthen blanket of blunted roots. “Depends,” he says, flattening his own tone into something unrelenting. It’s almost humorous, the way his dull voice floats among the birdsong careening around the northwestern skies, a call answered by the whistle of wind through the grass like a primaveral duet. He drives a jaded expression in his charge’s direction.
“Oh, don’t give me that look! It’s nothing terrible. It’s just that…” Zelda brushes a bit of stray bark from atop her golden head, “…well, as you surely have learned by now, I’m a rather inquisitive person…and there are many things that I find myself curious about…”
Still, her tone promises something inauspicious. 
Link inhales. “Are you going to ask how children come to be?” 
Zelda harrumphs, and the back of her hand comes to meet his shoulder with a playful swat. “Nonsense! Of course I know how they’re made! I’ve studied reproduction. It was a very…brief lesson, but I gathered all of the important elements.” She thinks for a moment, bites her lip before she’s rushing on: “But, you are on the right track—I want to know more than what any of the tutors will offer on the matter.”
It’s perhaps slightly worse than he’s imagined. Link rubs at his temple with a half curse set at his lips. 
“No, Link, please !” Zelda has most certainly anticipated such a reaction from him, because she’s quickly latching onto his arm, tugging at the angled pattern of orange along his arm wrap while nervous laughter spills from the both of them. Link can only turn an incredulous face on her, and he eyes her with a mixture of both disbelief and improper amusement. 
“I didn’t realize that being your knight attendant meant that I had to teach the Princess of Hyrule about sex .” The pink on his cheeks seems to shade deeper with each word, and in her shadow, he feels like a schoolboy admitting something shameful. 
Indignation quickly mutes the cunning gleam in her eye. “You’re not teaching me about it, per se,” she reasons, “you’re simply advising me on the matter with a first-hand account. A primary source. Does that sound amenable?”
Link squints. “Is there really even a difference?”
“Tutors only tell you about how it works. They would never dare elaborate on why one might actually want to engage in such a thing,” she huffs, shaking her head. “Isn’t that just preposterous?” 
When they had first set off for Irch Plain beneath the soft bristle of morning sun, he hadn’t anticipated lounging with the Princess of Hyrule in the cool meadow air like this. He’d expected that she’d collect her flora and set back off for the castle, their bellies filled with a light lunch and their sinuses irritated by whirls of pollen. But they find themselves here, in the sweet taste of the open air of the wild with only the horses to witness them—the Princess eager to strike up a conversation about sexual intercourse , of all things. 
“I’m tired of not knowing things.” A new tone—something much softer—displaces his silence. “I hear the maids whisper in riddles. I’m not a child anymore…don’t I have a right to know these things?”
He dares a glance at her through the corner of his eye to find that she’s right; she’s no longer the tempestuous girl baring fangs in the grip of insecurity, but a young, resilient woman handling all shortcomings with grace—bearing burdens upon her shoulders with thunderous resolve. She’s picturesque as she sits upon her field, a familiar gleam twinkling in her eye—the one that sparkles when she’s on survey, becoming one with the world that dwells beyond any turret or battlement. And then, as if she can’t bear to simmer in her thoughts any longer, she turns that breathless look on him again and grips his arm just a little tighter. 
“Please, Link, enlighten me!”
His brow furrows. “Shouldn’t you speak to Urbosa about something like this?” 
“I love Urbosa to bits but I am in no need of a sermon. I want to talk to a companion. A friend . ” 
Oh, how good it feels to hear that, he thinks. Link yields to the warmth bubbling up in his chest, and Zelda is so eager, so endearing that he can’t stamp out the playful smirk that begs to ripple across his face. 
“Does it drive you a little wild to know that there’s finally something I know about that you don’t?”
Beneath narrowed eyes, Zelda’s lips quirk at the edges. “…Perhaps only slightly.” There’s a subtle hint of a whine in her voice when she says it before she sighs. “I am perfectly willing to admit that, yes. So share your wisdom, oh wise knight.” She dips her head in mock regality.
Link scrunches his face up, unconvinced. 
“Unless…” Zelda pops back up to attention and raises a thin finger to her chin in thought, “…unless you haven’t actually been with a woman before.” She doesn’t give him a moment to object before she’s pressing on, a flick of her hand fluttering at her side: “Well, that’s alright. I suppose in that case, I shall find someone else to ask. Perhaps someone at the stable by the exchange might—” 
“—I’ve been with women, Princess.”
Link’s head snaps to look at her, a small flicker of triumph dancing in his limpid blue eyes; but he finds Zelda’s own verdant set narrowing smugly, and Link, having fallen right into her trap, quickly finds himself withering in despair.
“ Women ! Plural!” Laughter rumbles up through the Princess’ chest, her joy undeniable in the way that the observation practically explodes from her. “Even better—so then, you should be able to shed much light on the matter.” 
Link glances around as though he were discovering the plain for the first time, anguished eyes soon fixating on the distant silhouette of Hyrule Castle that looms on the horizon. Hylia help me, he thinks. 
“…I suppose.” He grumbles his concession through half-clenched teeth.
“Oh, fantastic !” He hears Zelda clap her hands together in victory. “Believe me, you are providing a wonderful service!” Link isn’t entirely convinced that he is, but before he can say anything else on the matter, the Princess is quickly chirping up again: “So! How does it all start, then? Walk me through it precisely .”
Link inhales deeply, nearly choking on the loamy scent of the plain that fills his head as it wraps him in one explosion of backwoods. He notices the way curiosity flickers up again in her eye. It’s disarming—has him less secure than any monster the kingdom’s grueling terrain has thrown his way in months past. She has him firmly set in the crosshairs, and there is little he can do but submit. 
So the ever resilient Link steadies himself and begins. 
“Alright...well…imagine you’ve gone to a festival,” he starts, blood already simmering. “And let’s say that when you’re there, you meet someone who you think is really handsome. And they’re so handsome that you can’t stop looking at them.” He fights to keep from sneaking over at her himself. “You realize that you want to touch them. And…you can tell they want to touch you, too.”
“How do you know?” Her voice is small, laced with curiosity.
“You just…do,” he replies. “Maybe you find their eyes lingering on you a little longer than normal. They find little reasons to get close. You’ll just know. There’s a little spark that happens…and you follow it.” He smiles as an unfamiliar sense of ease comes to nestle against him. “It’ll tell you what to do.”
“I see,” Zelda says, nodding. “And then what? You lock eyes with a pretty maiden at the local tavern and rent a room? Do you already have a special one set aside?” There’s a giggle breaking through her voice before she’s even finished the thought. Though Link has come to know the many shades of the Princess over the last few months, he thinks that he might hate the way mischief looks on her—charming. Enticing. A delicious little blade set against the small of his back at all times.
“It’s not like I prey on women!” He nearly spats, the pink across the bridge of his nose shading into scarlet. “It’s only happened a couple of times, and when it did…I just spoke to her. Got to know her. Tried to figure out her personality and get an idea of what she might enjoy.”
She cants her head. “What do you mean?”
“What do you mean?”
“How do you make those calculations?”
“Oh. Just..trial and error, I suppose.” Link wets his bottom lip nervously. “You want to figure out what she likes. Touch her, or...or kiss her in certain spots. Things like that.” He clears his throat. Zelda turns her attention out towards the plain and hums in consideration, and Link’s grateful that she’s tucked away in thought, unaware of the way he’s grown so close to detonation; the last thing he wants is for her to see the way he tints pink at such things.
“Hypotheses. Experimentation. Analysis,” she whispers out across dandelion seeds that sail past her lips. 
Ever the scholar, he thinks fondly. 
“Simpler than that, even. You’re overthinking. You have good instincts–you just need to follow them.”
There’s a small, inquisitive sound that hums warmly in her throat. “I suppose I never gave much consideration to the different ways you might pleasure someone.” Her voice is only a little more than a squeak, splits around her penultimate word as though she’s cursing Hylia above.  
Her knight does well to answer in spite of the way his tongue ties. “You never let your fantasies get the best of you?”
“You know as well as I do that I don’t have a spare thought for fantasies these days.”
Link nods. “I understand.” 
He does, really. He’s well-versed in her fears, in her goals and in the unbidden anxieties that wrestle her until the small hours of morning. What he doesn’t truly understand is how he can listen to such a plaintive thought and still find himself wholly burnished by the prospects of fantasies she might grant herself.
“Some examples, then?” she asks, brows raised. Oddly enough, Link finds it a little easier to carry on now; beneath the nerves, there’s something quite nice about speaking to her this way, so open and amicable. But with each passing word that falls from him, something flickers at the base of his throat, a squall of embarrassment knotting at the edge of his voice as their exchange drags him further into unknown depths. 
“One can use their hands…their mouths…either can be more pleasing than just intercourse. Important for pleasing a woman, I’d say. Anyway,” he carries on with haste, acutely aware of perspiration beading beneath his collar at certain thoughts that dart across his mind. “Once you’ve connected with this person and the progression feels natural, you’ll end up with a kiss, and…is something wrong, Princess?”
He turns to find her lips pressed together in a thin line and her chin crinkled with tension, but Zelda’s soft laugh breaks through such an apprehensive look when she finds his glance laid on her. “Nothing. It’s just that…I’ve yet to experience my first kiss.” She unveils the truth quietly, her cheeks as pink as spun sugar. It’s hardly a revelation; Link has never once assumed she’s ever been with a man in any capacity before. 
“Sorry. Well, I mean, not sorry ,” he fumbles, “there’s nothing to be sorry about…It’s perfectly fine that you haven’t…you shouldn’t feel bad...” Hylia, have mercy ; he’s powerless against the avalanche of words.
Golden hair brushes against her shoulders when she shakes her head. “But I do , because I’d like to know what it feels like,” Zelda whines.
“Your first kiss usually isn’t anything special.” Something in his chest tightens, mostly because the idea of Princess Zelda herself whining for a kiss is proving to be far too stimulating a notion. “It’s really just something to get over with. Really, no one’s first kiss is a good one.”
“Oh.” Zelda goes quiet, curiosity muted and replaced with a scintillating silence that promises something more. Link lowers his guard down, and his shoulders have only just settled a smidge before her soft request has tension knotting in them once again. 
“So,” she drones, fingers mindlessly clamping around the stray scorpion grass along her thighs, “if it isn’t anything special…might you be willing to kiss me, then?”
Link swears that the entirety of Hylia’s creation stills beneath them. That the notes of birdsong are plucked from the air, swallowed into silence so that the warblers can steal their furtive glances and see what happens next. That the winds cease their sighs to hear his response and that the hordes plaguing Hyrule go silent in a moment of respect for the poor Hero. Surely, the brilliant Princess ought to comprehend the magnitude of such a request?
“Princess…that is…”
A terrible idea , is the phrase that sits heavy on his tongue. Tugs gooseflesh across his arms and wrenches something familiar behind his sternum. But low in his belly, it isn't terrible. And it isn't terrible for a few rather terrible reasons; he imagines he’d like it. Would like it tremendously .
Perhaps, then, ‘a terrible idea’ might truly suffice.
“Oh, but it would be so beneficial!” Zelda rushes to add before he can find the end of the thought. “I’m so utterly lost with things of this nature, and I’m certain that the first time I shall ever kiss a man will be on my wedding day. And with a stranger, no less.” Her voice falls to a hush. “It would be nice to have this moment with a friend. Please?” And before Link can grapple with an adequate breath, Zelda turns, doe-eyed and pliant, sunlight flickering across the seafoam of her eye and she’s suddenly far too beguiling for his luck. “I know it’s a bit odd to ask you to do something like this with someone you aren’t attempting to…” her eyes flit away for a moment, just long enough to find a thought, “…rent a tavern with. But it would really mean a great deal to me.”
Link doesn’t quite know where to start. Perhaps at the absurdity of it all. Perhaps at the quiet truth that, if she were any other girl, in any other lifetime, he would spend an evening with her; wouldn’t think twice about making her breakfast the next morning and every morning after and he’d slip a ring on her finger and raise children with her in one of the sleepy villages out east. He’s held those thoughts since the day he’d knelt before her and pledged his life. But he doesn’t lead such a life that would ever allow him to do just that, so he holds his tongue and pretends to have never known such things at all. 
He’s in danger, he knows—but her eyes are flitting back and forth between his own and there’s the faintest please at her lips, and Link finds himself lost to the perfect storm of her.  
“Okay. I can do that for you.”
He doesn’t think he’s ever heard anything quite like the squeal she lets out. 
“Perfect! Oh thank you, Link, thank you!” 
She’s quickly bounding to face him, settling upon her shins and tucking gold strands behind her ears. Zelda leans in, expectant and willing; deep breath , Link thinks. He tries to ignore her shy smile, her eyes widening in curious jest as she watches him assess just exactly how to approach such a thing. 
She’s fully ignorant to the way he burns.  
“How about this—close your eyes. Let me lead. And if you need me to stop, just tell me so. You promise you’ll tell me?”
Zelda nods curtly and obeys, folding gloved hands and resting them upon her lap. Eyes gently closed, she looks so well-behaved, the docile student that he knows her to be. Link leans forward, suddenly a little overwhelmed as their faces grow closer to one another; he sees every spot in the dim constellation of freckles across her cheeks, conspicuous under the natural lighting, and he’s suddenly painfully aware of the length of blond eyelashes fanning out across her cheeks, demure and soft, her eyelids close enough to place the gentlest of kisses upon them.
Her brow trembles slightly when she feels his fingers meet her skin, the leather of his gloves following as he traces her jawline up to her ears. And then, she feels her head being angled, primed for him, and she nearly opens her eyes to inquire something when suddenly there he is, lips ghosting against hers, feather light until he presses just a little harder. She can’t deny herself the small hum that melts from her when she feels Link’s tongue sneaking across her lip, softening her up, encouraging her—convincing her to melt against him in return. His mouth works like a small ripple of a wave, detaching from her lower lip for just a moment before surging against her once more, and when he’s finished with her, he pulls away, his parting so achingly slow that both are certain they’ll kindle if he moves too fast.
Electricity and wires and temptation run between ears in lieu of the divine whispers they’d been designed for. 
“Was that okay?” 
When Zelda opens her eyes, Link’s own fall to the spot where his lips had just been, his fingers still against her and a mindless thumb grazing along the apple of her cheek. Between his tender touch, she blinks as though stirring from a nap. “I thought you said it wasn’t supposed to feel like anything special.”
His tunic hides a pounding heart. “I tried to make it nicer for you.”
“You succeeded.” Her stammer is barely contained. 
Link can only accept the compliment with a humble nod and pulls away, pressing himself back up against the tree and shifting uncomfortably in his place (for reasons Zelda will never be able to detect with such inexperience.) Whatever soft sounds have melted between them fall into uneasy silence, and it's the gentle swells of curiosity and panic that come to rest in the space between them. The memory of one another—her skin beneath his fingers and his thumb brushing across the bloom of her cheek—proves haunting, imprinting against them and dragging both down into a brume of incredulous thought. It feels like hours spent in the hush, and when Zelda’s small voice finally commands his attention at this side, it sends him shivering like the air isn’t bright and sweet and singing with a song of spring. 
“Link?”
“Yes, Princess?”
Quiet, and then:
“I feel the spark.”
She sounds almost forlorn as she speaks. As though he’s torn something apart within her.
His lungs feel like they’re overflowing with water when he tries to swallow. “…you do?”
“Yes.” Her whisper flees from her harshly, her heavy stare still focused out across the plain, avoiding his own. 
He could stop— should stop, if he’s being entirely truthful. But in the end, he’s only a man, one crafted of stardust between the Goddess’ adoring hands for her descendant, a construct of affection that has transcended the ages. How much longer is he expected to sit idly by and simply acknowledge it? Fate has brought him this far—perhaps he’s meant to let it carry him further.
“...will you tell me more?” he mumbles, inching closer. 
Zelda’s voice lulls beneath such a curious flare. “It’s like my body is asking for more of something, but I don’t know how to oblige it.” He notices that yearning in her eyes, glassy and distant. “Will you tell me more?” she asks, the inquiry threaded through unstable air. 
There is an invitation edging between her words that has his voice failing him. Shoulds and woulds and coulds battle for dominance behind the blue of his stare, swirling among the storm of ifs and buts . And when she can no longer bear his silence, she finally turns to him, eyes needy and bursting with longing.
His answer comes silently, as nothing but an easy shift in her direction.
“Relax,” Link begins. “Close your eyes again. Think about your kiss again. He might kiss you in other places, too.” Hesitation follows, a silent thought, and then he presses his thumb to her jaw, his half lidded eyes meeting her own, “—here—” against her neck “—here—”, at the slight crest of her collarbone, “—and here. And the spark will keep growing. And then—forgive me, Princess—he’ll undress you, and if he has any sense at all he should kiss you some more. In places that are normally covered. Your chest…your legs…” His voice falls to a whisper that rings with the colors of twilight. “Down there .” He watches the way she tips her head back against the tree and sighs, something so distant in her silken eyes.
“You okay?”
“Yes. It just all sounds very nice,” she whispers back, the hint of a smile flickering at her lips.
“What do you feel?” he murmurs, preoccupied by the way her mouth curls at the edges—missing the feel of her against him. 
“Something—” she lets her hand float against her abdomen, “—here.”
“Good, that’s good. And then you proceed the way the tutors taught you. Add in a few things here and there, depending on what you like. And when you’re ready to give in, you’ll be warm and wet and…” his breath is heavy against her, like warm air blown against a chilled windowpane. “…and perfect for him.” He conjures up a man to play along in the dangerously delicious fantasy, and it isn’t long before he’s stepping into the role himself —imagining her warmth and wetness around him, and oh Goddess, what a divine thought it is.
Zelda’s eyes fly open, malachite daggers carving into him. 
“For him . And what shall it feel like for me?”
He swallows. “Hard to say, exactly. I’m not a woman.”
“But you’ve been with them—how did they feel after?” Zelda’s voice softens when an afterthought works its way into her brain. “Did you kiss them all that way?” 
Their eyes lock.
“No. I didn’t.”
He’s playing with fire, a pyromaniac far too comfortable in the waxing heat. He’s grown close enough to see the enchantment of such a thought wrapping around her and watches as she wrestles just free enough to form another thought: “And what happens when you…” she licks her lips, eyes darting south before meeting his own again, “…what does that feel like?”
She is an enchantress, power lingering in her hushed tones and softly wrenched features. The slight intonation of her voice like a siren’s call luring him into Kitano Bay.  
“It tingles,” he mumbles, newly immune to even the slightest hint of embarrassment. “Sometimes it gets a little hard to see straight. Like my body just shuts down. Hard to explain.”
Link, as wild as he’s been driven by the predicament, does not know the true extent to which Zelda finds herself spiraling: indeed, it becomes difficult for her to imagine pleasure and pain uniting to serve her in such a way. But when she considers the ache in her belly, the strain between her thighs and the thought of Link feeling good—that Hylia had blessed her with architecture that could make him feel good—everything becomes a little too unbearable. 
“So you really cannot tell me about what your lady friends feel?”
“Not exactly, no. But…it would be so easy for you to find out.” He inches even closer, craning his neck as though he might press a kiss along her pulse point. “When you’re alone in that big, fancy bed of yours…and you think about your handsome man…and your spark comes to life. You just take care of it.”
“I don’t know how to fix it,” she murmurs, eyes quietly searching for something in his own. 
He would slay ten thousand beasts if it meant she’d hold that same gleam in her eye each time she looked upon him. 
“You experiment,” Link whispers in a tone forged of fire and ice. 
Zelda exhales, and she leans back against the tree and brings the soles of her boots to lay flat on the ground, her knees creating slight peaks. She spreads her legs gently and places a hand between them, winces when she brushes against herself. “Would it be…here?” She hardly notices the way Link pales, the way the slight wrinkle in his brow smooths out when his idle expression heats up.
“I’d say higher,” he mumbles, eyes fixed on the soft bend of her wrist.
She slides her hand up. “Here?”
Link cocks his head to the side. “Little more.”
“Here?”
“Seems too high now.”
“Oh, for heaven’s sake, Link just— show me.”
It takes a moment—a long moment thickened with dread and embarrassment—for both to realize exactly what happens next. It isn’t until Link’s fingers are curling tensely against Zelda’s own that she realizes what she’s done, and it isn’t until he watches the swallow work its way down her pretty little throat that he understands just exactly where his hand is. Their eyes lock, wholly sunken into a type of fear neither recognizes—and yet he hasn’t torn away, and she hasn’t writhed out from beneath him, and their hands are still simmering against one anothers as they sit cradled between straining limbs.
“I should have asked—”
“No, it’s—”
They fall silent together. And even still, neither moves, and it’s as though both are adhered to spot, their hands still connected between her legs and practically pinning her to the base of the tree. Link can see how her brow rumples, the way her cheeks lift in slight apprehension beneath such an appealing flush, the shallow breaths urging her chest up as she braces for his touch. Composure fractures.
“Please?” 
Link stills, though his silence isn’t marked with indecision; in the respite, he calculates. He weighs and reasons, and, truthfully, it doesn’t take very much to concede to the hunger that’s worked its way up from the depths of him—to the boiling blood that threads among muscle and bone. Beneath dilated pupils, he surrenders to her needs; really, hasn’t that been his purpose since the very beginning?
“Does this help?”
And then, without the slightest hint of effort, he presses two flattened fingers against a spot that sends her reeling.
“ Oh !” 
“And then you can move like this.”
The Princess gasps beneath his touch, and it fuels Link in a way he hasn’t expected; has him thinking he could move the Dueling Peaks if she asked for it. He can practically see sparks in incandescent irises, slivers of jade thinned out by pupils blown wide. Link softens the taut strain of his hand and diverts the focus into his fingertips, and Zelda can only watch them as they trace along her body in a circular motion. She soon closes her eyes, and he feels her hips twitch up into him—something involuntary. Each gentle pulse against her clothed core sends a promising burst of heat up through her body. 
And suddenly, she is the predator, seeking that rose-colored destination with an intensity that’s flared to life from nothing. And she has no one to blame but herself; she’s allowed her curiosity to best her, yet again, and now she finds herself trembling beneath his hand, an indelible appetite gnawing away at her, teasing her with the promise of something far grander than anything she’s come to know. Zelda brings her hands to the hem of her riding trousers, and Link feels something grow taut deep within him as he watches her fumble with the buttons along the front.
“Can you—can you…try to…?”
“Sure. Sure .” His voice is so harsh when it falls from him. Strangled, though both are far too preoccupied to notice. 
Link’s skin pricks up at the sight of the soft color of undergarments poking out from beneath the dark fabric of her trousers. She slows him, only briefly, taking his fingers and placing them against the last barrier separating him from a spot more sacred than any temple or altar in Hyrule, and Link has to squeeze his eyes tight to keep from shuddering against the hint of damp fabric. With each fraction of surface he crawls across, his breath grows more and more shallow, air escaping him entirely when he coaxes the lip of her underwear up and finds the hint of fine golden hairs caressing his fingers.  
“Princess…” he breathes against her, and though his voice is full of warning and wanting, Zelda only seems to heed the latter; she bucks forward, inching Link’s hand further, closer to a drenched core that begs for more of him. “Fuck,” he closes his eyes and whispers, the expletive soon lost in the soft sigh of the wind. There’s hardly any room to breathe past the thought of her—past the reality that he’s touching her, that the teasing fantasies he’d swallowed down long ago are fashioning themselves into reality. And even just the hint of her beneath him is more marvelous than any daydream that’s ever kept him simmering in the privacy of his quarters.
Zelda gasps when he drags his touch around her, against her—as he skims against the edge of her garments. “That’s—that’s very nice…that’s…oh…” Her voice is nothing but a string of consonants tapping against air, headless and ethereal.
“Do you like that?” he asks, eyes dark and his finger dangling against curls.
“ Very much so,” she whines, her eyes watching as his fingers disappear further beneath the fabric. Zelda bites her lip and squirms around in search of something— anything to get more of this feeling. She leads him there, and Link can’t keep from dropping his head and sighing into her flushed neck when he finds a patch of soaked gold.
“Hands work differently than cocks,” he says, attention concentrated so squarely on her that he doesn’t notice the way he strains against his trousers. “Hands are helpful.”
Zelda’s lips part around a gentle oh, back arching slightly as she wills more of herself into his hand. “I’m sure your lady friends were satisfied—it seems you're quite capable with them.” She can hardly manage to speak past the fragmented breaths.
“No complaints yet.” The slight hint of humor in his voice doesn’t make it all the way to his hungry eye, and Link tears another cry from her when precise fingers begin to move with waxing speed. “What does it feel like Princess? Maybe you can teach me a little something today.” He hums, voice manipulated into a gentle purr. “Tell me.”
“It’s like something is climbing.” She swallows, fingers curling into the soil around her. “Rising…”
“That’s good. Let it. Go there.” Please. 
“L-Link…” she whines, thighs tightening around his hand. She writhes beneath him, her rear wriggling further into the base of the tree as she arches into him.
“Yes, Princess?” 
This feeling doesn’t just run through her—it burns her veins as it courses through her, singes her spine. It cradles her in its iron grasp and whispers into her skin; leaves her frantic and wholly at his mercy. Begins to unravel all that holds her together. 
“More, please—harder,” she whimpers. “ In .” 
“As you wish.” 
So further he delves, and Zelda cries out into the open air, her bliss a melody he’s never known; her body’s call, beckoning him closer. It’s scandalous. It’s sacrilegious. It’s delicious .
“Goddess—” she breathes into him, rocking frantic hips against his meticulous fingers. The timbre of her voice melts into something lower, deeper and darker as it sings for him. Link spirals his thumb in the same, perfect spot.
“ Gods, Link…” she’s whining in disbelief, crying under a blissful sigh. Hearing his name spoken like that—he doesn’t think much else can eclipse it. He’s drunk on the way it sinks squarely between his ears; sends tremors through his body like he’s on the verge of breaking apart entirely. He wants more of it, more of her—all of her. 
“Keep going. Keep going.” He can hear himself saying. Begging .
“Yes—I—” Her voice peals nervously. But he can see in the way her neck strains, the way the furrowed bark of the tree tousles her hair when she shoves her head back into it, the way her feet point inwards and her heels dig into the ground, in the way her mouth flounders open around the name that dies in her throat—he has her where he wants her.
And even more importantly, he has her where she wants to be. 
“Keep going, Zelda. That’s it.” 
“Link…” The broken whine of his name hangs in the air like a drifting leaf on the wind as she watches his knuckles pulse against her. Tunes herself to the call of his own wanting that comes in his powerful grasp and his heavy breathes. 
“Shh, it’s okay.” His whispers, a plume of smoke bristling past her reedy whimpers. “Keep going. Good girl, Zelda. What a good fucking girl you are.”
Her sharp gasp pierces the air. She turns to him, it’s only then that she can truly understand the depths they’ve fallen: she finds the electricity of blue eyes grown lupine through the thin ropes of blonde strewn across her face. His jaw is set, like that of a predator skulking through the thicket to sink teeth into a pulsing neck, and she nearly gasps aloud at the weight of such a look: he could devour her whole, and she’d thank him for it. 
“Cum for me, Princess. Please. ” 
She obeys like the good girl she is, stars exploding behind her eyes as she sobs his name once more.
| . | . | . | . | . | . | . | . | . |
The second time she comes crashing down, his mouth is on hers. She begs him for more almost as soon as she finds herself drifting in that headless space, floating for just a moment before she’s barreling back down the earth, practically commanding him when he teases a ceasefire. He starts again gently, lets her savor the faint taste of wildberries on his tongue before he drags her through the brilliance of pleasure again. 
“What have I done?” he asks, his smoky inquisition tugging a small laugh from his Princess. She only tugs at her lip and drives her hips further into him, and Link acquiesce to send her soaring again, her open mouth gasp dragging along his satisfied smirk. 
The shadows begin to spread as the sun slips into its initial descent. Against the tree, Zelda has collapsed against him, stretching the crisp blue of his tunic as she clings to his body. He admires her this way, wilted against him; a pliant pile of shambles at his side. His hand still dwells between her legs, and he lets a delicate fingertip trace along the inside of her thigh. Two hearts pound against one another, Link’s own quickly hammering inside his ribcage when he considers just how much of a soaking mess he’s left her. 
It takes a few moments for their breaths to settle, and Link finds himself turning an eye towards the throb that still yearns against the front of  his trousers.
“I imagine,” he hears Zelda start through fractured breaths, “that it must have been twice as enjoyable for your tavern acquaintances.” 
Link’s circle halts on her thigh. “Why?”
“Well,” she says, hazy eyes dwelling on the hand between her legs, “because they weren’t your friends. Because you chose to be with them…you weren’t just providing a favor.” She clears her throat, the fog clearing. “I must admit, Sir Link,” she laughs, a little weakly, and the reappearance of his title dawns a sense of doom low in his belly, “I…” she bites her lip, “...I admit I’m rather envious of them.” She smiles politely, humorously unaware of just how disheveled she appears at his side. “And I will not lie to you…the spark is still there.” She sits herself up a little taller. “But I don’t regret this in the slightest—you were…” 
She meets his eye, and one look has Link thinking he might like to lay her down and ravish her right there. 
“…you were enchanting . And I am very grateful for it. I shall remember this so fondly.”
He can only stare, all clouded eyes and parted lips.  She squirms beneath his look.
“W-what is it?” she squeaks, the melting pink at her cheeks deepening yet again. 
And still he is silent, eyes crinkled slightly at the edges.
“As far as favors for friends go…” he leans in and murmurs curtly into her, “...this is the best favor I’ve ever had to do for one. I’d be happy to grant more.” He dips his head and drags his tongue against her neck, and his stomach plummets when he catches her groan in his ear. 
As if they’d never paused at all, her breath is strangled. “And what…what other sort of favors might you do for a friend?”
The soft sound of lips pulling from her skin. “Whatever said friend wishes for.”
Zelda pulls her head back to look into his eyes. “What of your mouth?”
“I’ll taste her for hours, if she wishes.”
“Where?” she breathes, eyebrows knit and the ache between her legs grows needy again. Link wriggles two fingers against her slit and grins. 
“And what of your…” Her lips falter around a plosive consonant.
His grin widens.”My cock?”
“Yes,” she nearly gasps around the word.  
“I’ll make it so they hear her screams back at the castle, if that’s what she wants.” 
She melts into his touch, eyes fluttering shut for a moment.
“Do you mean that?”
“Would I lie to you?”
He wouldn’t dream of it. And, deep down, Zelda knows this—knows that he’d follow her to the ends of the earth and into hell if she asked him to. 
The gentle ache pulses between her legs, unsatiated. She can only tug at his collar and pull him closer, a soft no lost in the cradle of his mouth, thoughts of hell and the ends of the earth easily superseded by him : the slight slope of his nose, the way his throat bobs beneath her hungry eyes, the ridge of his shoulders—that part of him that haunts her from beneath stifling stretches of fabric. 
Bits of him to occupy her until that fateful day arrives. 
He for her, and she for him.
More, more, more .

11. Hi mods! Thanks for all your work <3
Can I ask for fics where wangxian meets different versions of themselves? Or like maybe wwx or lwj meets different versions of themselves and sees their other self in the wangxian relationship.
And i dont mean like time travel stuff, i mean stuff like novel version wangxian meets the untamed wangxian or canon m/m wangxian meets alternative reality w/w wangxian, etc.
Anything along those lines would be awesome, in case of smut no bottom lwj please!

South Park x Wings of Fire
This au takes place around ten years after the events of the third arc. (5,022 AS) It's the same dragon characters as in the book but I stuffed South park characters in it lol.
Why did I make this? Easy. Two fandoms I'm really into. :) Same thing happened when I made Sp x Dsmp.
I have no big story planned out for this au.. Right now it's really one of those school slice of life things… 
Also ignore the fact they don't have proper dragon names. I can’t think of any good ones..
Turquoise Winglet      Peridot Winglet        Gold Winglet
MudWing: Cartman          IceWing: Craig                  NightWing: Wendy
SandWing: Kenny             MudWing: Clyde                RainWing: Bebe
RainWing: Butters           NightWing: Tolkien         SandWing: Karen   
SilkWing: Kyle                   SandWing: Tweek            SkyWing: Red
NightWing: Stan              SkyWing: Jimmy               SeaWing: Nicole 
HiveWing: Ike                   SeaWing: Scott                  IceWing: Trisha
The Turquoise Winglet
Eric Cartman, Mudwing-SkyWing hybrid, Hatched: 5,015 AS (7 years old)
Although he looks like a normal MudWing there are little characteristics to his design that make him part SkyWing. He has one blue eye, he can breathe fire at any temperature and his wings end at his tail instead of his thighs like all MudWings. 
He would personally RIP OFF all your scales if you call him a Hybrid.
Eric only has one sib and that is his SkyWing half brother Scott.
Why doesn’t he have any other MudWing sibs? My only excuse for that is.. Liane had trouble when it came to having eggs and she got lucky with a random SkyWing she met near the Diamond spray delta.
Eric has scars all over his body from several fights with his FlameSilk classmate Kyle. The first one he got was when he was a little dragonet he hatched in a reddish egg (because of being half SkyWing) and Liane wanted to test if he could have fire-resistant scales. The answer to that was no and she gave him a pretty bad scorch mark on his right shoulder. (she deeply regrets doing that.)
Kenny McCormick, SandWing, Hatched: 5,014 AS (8 years old)
(In this au Jerboa III unsuccessfully got animus magic to disappear.)
Kenny’s egg was part of an experiment (most likely from Vulture’s dragons) to see if there is a way for animus-touched dragons to come back from death. Many eggs/dragonets were used for this test and all of them died except for kenny. Although.. He is still one of their failures. He can't die and come back but he still can get very bad injuries and not die from them. 
Before Kenny and his little sister went to jade mountain they lived in the scorpion den. (poor of course) Jade mountain was the only school that did not ask for any sort of money. And their parents did not want to homeschool any more dragonets.
Kenny often tries to keep Brightsting cactus on him or wrap up his tail so he can keep himself from getting poisoned because part of his curse made him a bit prone to accidents.
Butters Stoch, RainWing, Hatched: 5,015 AS (7 years old)
Butters is a typical happy RainWing; it's as if nothing can make him angry. Although.. he could've been even more happy if he grew up in the rainforest.
Before school butters grew up in santerary his parents thought it would have been better if their dragonet didn't live in the rainforest. Because they didn't trust Queen Glory for whatever reason.
One day something clicked in his mind and he took his anger out on a SeaWing student that is when his parents revealed to Tsunami and Sunny that he didn't grow up in the rainforest and now is the time he probably should experience the rainforest himself. 
Kenny tagged along with butters on his trip and the RainWings greeted him with open talons. He didn't stay however even though it is everything he could have wished for he didn't want his friends (especially kenny) to be sad for leaving school.
Kyle Broflovski, SilkWing, Hatched: 5,015 AS (7 years old)
Kyle and his family are one of a few families of Pantala dragons that decided to stay in Pyrrhia. His parents told him that he could go to jade mountain accatony after he got his wings but he convinced them to let him go before he got them.
Upon arriving at jade mountain he almost immediately made friends and… enemies with his winglet. A silly MudWing hybrid would always make fun of him for being wingless and for just being a SilkWing. Eric is always telling him that SilkWings should still be Second Class dragons for the HiveWings. He sure did pay for his comments when Kyle got his wings.
When jade mountain got its first SilkWings Sunny made a safe cave just for them so they can undergo metamorphosis. The day Kyle was meant to go into metamorphosis he noticed that his wrists were burning a little. This made him pretty excited because that meant he inherited his mom’s Flamesilk. It.. also meant he can give Cartman what he deserves. And to give his NightWing Friend Stan glowing Friendship bracelets. 
Stan Marsh, NightWing, Hatched: 5,015 AS (7 years old)
Stan and Shelly were hatched and raised in the old NightWing kingdom.
They were both hatched under similar moons giving them both powers. Shelly got strong mind-reading while Stan got pretty weak foresight, which means visions would pop up in his mind at random times and they would sometimes go from what he was going to eat for dinner to a big threat that could kill him and his friends.
Stan was introduced to jade mountain academy when semi-queen Fierceteeth gave his class fliers because “her brother made her.” and this school sounded a whole lot more fun than the old NightWing school to him. Shelly didn't go because she thought only dumb dragons go there and the NightWing school teaches more smarter subjects.
It took him awhile to warm up to his winglet when he got to school but his SilkWing and SandWing definitely helped him. He may have feelings for the SilkWing. MAYBE.
Ike Broflovski, HiveWing, Hatched: 5,019 AS (3 years old)
Around 5,015 AS a few HiveWing families thought about living in Pyrrhia. their families grew there but, out of all the new families of HiveWings some of them couldn't keep their eggs so they put them up for adoption that's when Kyle’s parents adopted Ike.
Ike and Kyle went to school at the same time and they got put into a winglet together because their parents thought it would be easier for Ike to be with his big brother. Ike doesn't really get into all the adventures and conflicts as the rest of his winglet does; he likes to go at his own pace wrapped up in his own hobbies.

My friend sent me parts of the Iron Fan arc and Wukong calling both princesses a bitch? Is he the only pilgrim to swear like this what is this liberal use :S
Surprisingly there are a lot of curse words to be had for at least Wukong, Bajie, and Wujing. Bajie called the Scporin Demon a bitch at least three times in the arc for her stealing Saznang and poisoning Wukong.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And Wujing even calls the Queen of Women's Kingdom a hussy (at least in the Yu version, isn't not that abrasive in the CN cause there it is just 贼辈无知) But still also calls Scorpin queen a bitch in the Yu translation. A lot of Scorpion Demon hate to be had.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I only see that Wukong calls Jade Face a bitch but that might be that perhaps your friend is using a different translation for that.
Tumblr media
Because Bajie calls Iron Fan a bitch but I don't see Wukong insulting her.
Tumblr media
Wukong seems to be content calling Iron-Fan sister-in-law but if I missed it then that is on me. Funny enough the only time I could see when Wukong doesn't call her sister-in-law was when they arrested Demon Bull King and he called her Raksasi.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Again I might just be missing it cause I'm skimming the chapter but he def called Jade Face a Bitch.
A bunch of potty mouthes here.

YOUIYOIAUEUEUSHS ADD A BREAKING BONES TW FOR THIS ONEEE
[It actually sounds a little bittersweet for Jiyu and her wife Ykothe to be like the moon and the ocean (ie the moon and the tide personified almost). Able to see and influence on another, but with reduced contact.]
I can just imagine Jiyu telling her story to Wukong about HOW she got banished to the moon. I also forgot to tell you that she was once a pet bat of the Jade Emporer and she was given a human form. /pos
Jiyu went down to earth under the Jade Emporer's permission, then met a mortal woman, whose name is—Ykothe, her now wife.
Jiyu, explaining to SWK where she has been all these years: "he asked me what happened to my good sense, Xiwangmu made me weak, broke my legs in two, and sent me to the moon. Ykothe had her feet in the water, she became one with it."
SWK: "so.. he sent you to the moon because he was homophobic?"
Jiyu: "Wukong, that's literally what I just told you. OH WAIT— BY THE WAY, LOOK AT MY NEWBORN BABY, ISN'T SHE SO CUTE?!"
SWK: *that one amazed cat meme* "YOU HAVE CHILDREN?! SINCE WHEN?!"
Tumblr media
sequel post to this one introducing Jiyu and her ocean wife.
The idea of Jiyu once being a "normal" pet bat of the Jade Emperor is a really cool idea - especially since a lot of Jttw characters started off as "normal" animals that grew some level of enlightenment (Rhino King being Lao Tzu's fave buffalo, Guanyin's pet Goldfish, the Scorpion Demoness being a normal scorpion that scared the inner peace out of Buddha, etc) and rebelled against Heavens rule.
JE and Xiwangmu do be that kind of petty. They literally cursed Sandy (a cup bearer) to be a river demon targeted by chronic pain (literal heavenly blades coming at at) just cus he dropped the Queen's fave cup/vase.
Jiyu gives me almost pokemon Lunala vibes. Her and her ocean wife kissing almost looks like the literal night sky and ocean are melting into one another.
And a baby!? :O! I bet she's the embodiment of the moon's glow on the ocean/moon glint (a phenomenon that effects the behaviors of a lot of fish - seahorses in particular).

Charlize Theron, feliz cumpleaños a la diva de Hollywood que hoy cumple 48 años
Feliz cumpleaños a Charlize Theron que hoy, lunes 7 de agosto de 2023, cumple 48 años.
Nacida en Benoni, Sudáfrica, en 1975, la diva de Hollywood -ganadora del Oscar por ‘Monster’- pasó su infancia en la granja de sus padres, que son ricos terratenientes y dueños de una empresa de construcción de carreteras.
Tumblr media
A la edad de seis años comenzó a tomar clases de baile. A los trece años se inscribió en un internado en Johannesburgo, donde pudo perfeccionar aún más sus habilidades como bailarina. A los quince años, un hecho dramático trastorna su vida: su madre dispara a su marido, violento y alcohólico, en defensa propia, matándolo.
Tumblr media
En 1991, después de ganar un concurso local para aspirantes a modelos, a Charlize se le ofreció la oportunidad de comenzar a modelar. Así que se va a Milán y trabaja como modelo durante un año, antes de darse cuenta de que el papel de los ‘cambios de belleza’ la aburre profundamente. Así que, encontrándose en Nueva York por trabajo, decide quedarse allí y volver a su primer amor, la danza, con el Joffrey Ballet.
Tumblr media
Justo cuando parece que va por buen camino, su carrera como bailarina se ve truncada por una lesión en la rodilla. A los 18, Charlize tiene que empezar de nuevo.
Haciendo caso a la insistencia de su madre, se fue a Hollywood donde en 1994 John Crosby, un agente que representaba a Renee Russo y John Hurt entre otros, se fijó en ella mientras discutía con un empleado del banco que se negaba a pagarle un cheque. Impresionado, le deja su tarjeta de presentación. Ocho meses después, Charlize hace su debut en la pantalla grande.
Tumblr media
Después de que Elizabeth Berkley fuera preferida a ella para el papel principal de ‘Showgirls’ (una exclusión afortunada, considerando el fiasco de la película), fue elegida para ‘Dos días sin aliento’ (1996). Mientras tanto, comienza a tomar lecciones de actuación.
Sólo un año después, su carrera actoral recibió un impulso definitivo con la participación en ‘El abogado del diablo’, junto a Al Pacino y Keanu Reeves. En 1998, aparece en ‘Celebrity’ de Woody Allen (para la que también protagonizó ‘The Curse of the Jade Scorpion’) y en el cuento de hadas de Ron Underwood ‘Big Joe’.
Tumblr media
En 1999 protagonizó la película de ciencia ficción ‘La mujer del astronauta’ de Rand Ravich, en la que es la esposa de Johnny Depp, y participó en ‘Las normas de la casa de la sidra’ de Lasse Hallström, multinominada al Oscar. En 2004, gracias a la interpretación de la asesina múltiple Aileen Wuornos, ganó varios premios a la Mejor Actriz, entre ellos el Oscar, el Oso de Plata en Berlín y el Globo de Oro (categoría de película dramática).
Tumblr media
Entre sus papeles más aclamados por la crítica también se encuentran las dos colaboraciones con el director Jason Reitman, la primera para Young adult (2011), y la segunda para Tully (2018), melancólica historia de una mujer en crisis inmediatamente después del nacimiento de su tercer hijo. hija; ambos papeles le valieron a la actriz una nominación al Globo de Oro.
Embajadora de la ONU, es miembro de organizaciones de mujeres y derechos de los animales, como PETA. Es madre de dos hijas, Jackson y August, ambas adoptadas. La última relación importante de la actriz nacida en Sudáfrica fue con la estrella Sean Penn en 2015.

Weirdest Mortal Kombat Characters
1. Mokap - Don’t we already have a dickhead Hollywood actor in the roster? You know, Johnny Cage? This secret character know many different styles of martial arts, and knows Johnny very well. He was one of the secret characters that was added as a goof, but feels more like he should’ve been an alternate costume for Cage rather than an actual character.
2. Hsu Hao - Just because one black market crime syndicate isn’t enough, we have the leader of the Red Dragon, that rivals the Black Dragon. Hsu Hao is as stereotypical mustache-twirling villain as Dick Dastardly. And he’s not even in the least bit likable. Sure, Kano is absolutely unlikable, but his scumbag charm makes us love to hate him.
3. Chameleon and Khameleon - Honestly, why do we need these ninja characters when we have a literal spectrum of ninjas, like Ermac, Skarlet, Tremor, Scorpion, Tanya, Reptile, Jade, Sub-Zero, Kitana, Rain, Mileena, Smoke, and Noob Saibot? These two characters always change color palettes and fighting stances of several ninja characters, and their special move? Camouflage. Reptile already does that.
4. Moloch - Since when did we need Orcs in Mortal Kombat? Oh, wait, he’s an Oni. My bad! He’s noy the only Oni on this list, but Moloch in particular felt more like something written in a J.R.R. Tolkien book or Warcraft character rather than a Mortal Kombat fighter.
5. Nitara - We got ninjas, cyborgs, Orcs (sorry, Oni), so do we really need vampires? Not to mention she’s the only vampire on the roster (Skarlet’s a blood mage, stark difference between the two). And she only appears in one Mortal Kombat title. Well, technically two, but Armageddon has literally EVERY character that’s ever been in a Mortal Kombat game up to that point. She was also in the 2021 movie, but was dispatched quick as she was introduced.
6. Drahmin - Another Orc. Oni. While granted, the last one I mentioned is actually a sub-boss in Deadly Alliance, this one, well, looks like he’s into kink, sporting a mask and just his undies. He does have a knife in his back, and if you pull it out, he’ll go berserk!
7. Meat - He’s literally what his name is. Just a walking pile of muscle and bones, no skin! Like Mokap, he was added as a goof. According to the lore, he was a failed experiment by Shang Tsung. I’m sorry, I just can’t fathom the idea that a literal evil genius would make a mistake in his experiments!
8. Motaro - Just what we need, a centaur! Or a Minotaur… depends on what Mortal Kombat you’re playing. He was a centaur first introduced as the sub-boss of Mortal Kombat 3, and was actually playable in Armageddon, but became bipedal rather than a quadruped. The reasoning according to Midway was because he was cursed by the Shokans.
9. Dark Kahn - Remember that crossover with DC? No, not DC characters as guest characters on Mortal Kombat, and vice versa. No, in 2008, we got Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. The big baddie of each universe, Shao Kahn and Darkseid, got sucked into an anomaly, merging into one ungodly creature. Um yeah this game didn’t need to happen. But thankfully it gave birth to NetherRealm’s sister series, Injustice.
10. EVERY. GUEST. CHARACTER. - Beginning with Mortal Kombat 2011, there have been characters from other works of fiction available as DLC, called guest characters. It all started with Freddy Krueger in Mortal Kombat 2011, and a PlayStation exclusive in Kratos from the God of War franchise. Other guest characters in Mortal Kombat X and Mortal Kombat 11 include Alien, Predator, Leatherface, Jason Voorhees, Spawn, the Joker, Rambo, T-800 Terminator, and RoboCop. Joker isn’t just some carry-over from the Injustice series; he’s actually a pretty deadly fighter with a pretty sick Fatality.

Mutiny

2. A.M.
Syntax closed his laptop with a soft sigh, then narrowed his eyes. There would be Hell for the unforgivable, horrible things that Estelle had done, to him, and to all of them. She'd lied to Esmeralda, she'd lied to her now henchmen. It was only fair that he lie to her about what his true intentions were, about what he meant to do now that he had decided to stay for now.
He was going to tear her apart, steal everything that mattered to her, just like she'd stolen his humanity. He couldn't go home with the first member of his family he'd met in a decade. No one would recognize him but his cousin, who was stuck here with him, stuck here because of him.
If only he hadn't been so naive. Maybe he could have prevented this. Now, though, there wasn't any use quietly tearing himself apart over it. Syntax wrapped up the injuries on his forearms, throwing the blade away as he did so. No. There was no use in letting this grief fester, he had to do something with this wrath.
So, the spider prowled through the cursed passageways of the cavern he begrudgingly called home, passing by a number of different chambers as he moved. Every footstep was filled with purpose, filled with wrath and anger and hate.
She wasn't getting away with this.
He wouldn't let her.
The smaller spider crossed the threshold into Estelle's room, his intentions fully masked. He couldn't let her know, not yet at least. When she took notice of him, he nodded at her, forcing a smile that she couldn't tell was a lie.
She'd taught him too well how to lie.
It wasn't long before his claws were at her throat, his eyes drilling into hers.
"You took everything from me, from us. You stole our humanity. If you think I'll let you live after this, you're sorely mistaken." His voice was deathly quiet, for rage never makes a sound. He was going to make her pay for everything she'd done. She'd stolen things from him he could never take back, and as the venom dripped down his claws, Estelle knew he was going to kill her. The fear rendered her paralyzed. His claws were so close to her throat, so sharp, so well refined...
It was only fitting that it would be used against her now, for after all, she'd ruined his chances of finding a home in the Megapolis. If he was going to die here, despondent and alone, he was going to take her with him, with the very same weapons that were once used in her service.
Alas, the footsteps of his beloved adopted mother forced him to leave Estelle alone. As Esmeralda entered the room, she was too late to see what Syntax was trying to do. His claws were clean now, as were his fangs, and both of them knew damn well that Esmeralda would never believe her partner. Syntax, no Pierre, maintained too good of a facade of complacency for anyone to suspect him just yet.
While the jade scorpion went to comfort the obsidian spider, Syntax simply huffed, then sighed, as he always did when he was upset about something... or seemed so. His cruel, venomous green eyes made his former master shiver, because now she knew.
Her minions no longer served her.
She wasn't safe from them anymore.
