#the elysium

[ars0nistpixie]

Regulus writes letters to James and calls him his Dearest, his Beloved, his Firefly.

He signs with Yours forever.

He throws his heart out into paper, putting into words the earnest, most beautiful sentiments.

And, whenever James dares bring it up, all giddy about it, Regulus throws him a disgusted look and replies with, "What the fuck are you even talking about? Stupid cunt."

WIP Wednesday: The Elysium

2/21/24

Okay to be vulnerable for one moment, it has been what we in the biz call a "shit day." I cancelled my plans and came home right after work, and remembered that you all had asked for more writing. And I didn't want to, but I sat down, and suddenly, I had some writing and wanted to cry a bit less. So thank you for asking; it always means a lot, but this week it meant a little more.

ANYWAY!

Here's Elysium. I plan to add more religions here, but you know. I couldn't bring myself to do research tonight. @skarabrae-stone and @eriquin , I hope youlike it! I'm going to go chase my cat out of the sink now.

“What an ass.” She wrinkled her nose. “Kidnapped, ha! Like you could kidnap me.”

“What’s that supposed to mean? I’m Strong!” I protested, flexing a bicep in what I hoped wasn’t a desperate way. 

“Never mind,” Persie said, shaking her head at me. “No. We keep them. And we get whatever they need from that house, in person.”

I nodded. Of course, it would have been easier to Will their things here. But that could raise suspicion, especially if they needed anything large. Going in person would ensure we could modify small parts of memory to smooth over any issues…but Persephone wanted to go to look this person in the eye. 

Now might be a good time, for legal reasons, to say something about godly boundaries. As a general rule, we leave the afterlife and “heaven” to appear as the relevant religious deity dictates. So a Catholic will see God or Satan, a Buddhist will be reincarnated, etc. Atheists often have a little more leeway, and us Greeks get a lot of them. We’ve become the shepherds of the non-religious. But in general, we stick to our believers or those who we take a personal interest in.

Sometimes, if we need to, we can make a small amount of our domain known. I have been able to since I was born, and when Persie became Queen, she was given certain parts of my domain. In this case, Persie wanted to look into this person’s eyes, because they would have to look into hers. 

And they would see Hell.

They would see everything they think happens to “sinners.” They will see themselves in every nightmare imaginable. They will see eternity, burning, forever. And it would be so much at once, their brains will forget it, but they will remember the fear. They will remember, in their dreams.

Every time i purchase a moderately expensive item the Karl Marx on my shoulder is like "For shame... you purchase yet another pair of jeans when you have 5 already at home, you despicable commodity fetishist? In my time, a man with five outfits would consider himself blessed beyond measure, and yet you want for more, while there are children starving in the world??" to which the second Karl Marx on my other shoulder says "Objection! Those 5 pairs of jeans all wildly uncomfortable or have holes in the ass, due to the decline of clothing quality driven by the fast fashion industry, unfortunately making this purchase a necessity... Plus, by purchasing a slightly more expensive pair of jeans from an independent brand, seeking quality over 'brand recognition', they are deliberately trying to avoid engaging in conspicuous consumption!" to which the third Karl Marx clinging to my back like that beetle from Doctor Who says "Remember, my friend; the less you eat, drink, buy books, go to the theatre or to balls, or to the pub, and the less you think, love, theorize, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you will be able to save and the greater will become your treasure which neither moth nor rust will corrupt — your capital. Buy the jeans," to which I say "I don't know if any of you have actually read Karl Marx"

#My foremost Disco Elysium skills are KARL MARX‚ KARL MARX 2‚ YET ANOTHER KARL MARX‚ MARIE KONDO‚ SKIN-FLINTEDNESS‚ ADHD‚ and SAVOIR-FAIRE

One massive, legitimate way to improve as a writer or artist or in any creative endeavor really, is to become absolutely obsessed with something and to allow yourself to be weird about it. Genuinely mean this btw.

FIC STUFF — links to ao3

hi :) i write fics on ao3

i'm alright with any pronouns and you can call me whatever you like. you're also welcome to ask any questions, even anonymous, and I'll happily answer.

also, constructive criticism about the fic is very welcome <3 english is not my first language and, although my level is high, sometimes i might make mistakes. if you notice any, please let me know :)

here's the link ig

"the elysium" — royal au, jegulus, wolfstar & nobleflower centered

characters die, but not those with a pov and it has a happy ending. it's a wip and i post about 15k words long chapters every ten days or so

warnings: graphic violence, angst, characters dying — sex scenes won't be explicitly described, just "hinted to" or written in a way that readers know what is happening without it turning into smut

the summary

For as long as he could remember, Regulus knew he was going to marry a prince.

It was sealed in his destiny, embroidered in the fairy tales the maid told him to make him sleep, so neatly sewed into his eyelids that he even dreamed of it at night. In his dreams, he was always glad and so giddy about it, up until the moment he grew up to have wants and needs and Regulus understood that there was no universe in which he could have wanted to do otherwise.

For as long as he could remember, James knew he was going to be king.

It was written in his blood, running through his veins as steely resolve. It was destiny chanted in royal hallways, whispered in his ears as both a promise and a warning. Since he had been able to think for himself, James had been pervaded by an ever present mindfulness of fate, manifesting in the way he talked and walked, rode his horse and wielded his spear. Lords, barons and dukes had called him heir to the throne before knowing his name, kneeled at his feet before he could know what it meant to rule. James looked in the mirror and saw a prince before he could ever recognise himself.

Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.

when i'll post something else, i'll put it here, so I'll pin the post :)

please lmao be kind, idk how to tumblr my way into this yet

WIP Wednesday: The Elysium

Okay so this is a little shorter, I may or may not be avoiding responsibility at work. But I work in a D&D/board game store at least it’s kinda on-brand.

This was asked for by @anyctibius @owlbearwrites and @eriquin, I also need you to know that I woke up last night with a revelation for the end of this story and I think it’s gonna be good. How get there? No idea.

Edit to add: mention of the the God Of Arepo comics from this lovely website, which can be found in a compilation at this website and on the original post!

I heard Persie’s sharp intake of breath. Mel stared at their hand, wide eyed. Any tired, nihilistic humor was gone - they were reeling, and I worried that shock might be taking over. I shook myself and forced my voice to address my brother.

“Well that about does it,” I said, Gently pulling Mel behind me, “right, brother?”

Zeus nodded, stepping back towards the far wall of the break room and putting his hands in his pockets. “The…event occurred just south of the Origin. The fields that used to belong to a minor god, what was his name…”

“Arepo?”

“That’s him. Anyway, the fields next to those. I hid the site, so that it wouldn’t be plowed over and such. I also took the liberty of adding a training room to your quarters up above, and I will bypass the mortality rule. The young hero is allowed up top.” He straightened his jacket, and clasped his hands. Lightning began to crackle again, and Mel covered their eyes. Even Persie turned away a bit. My brother looked at me, eye to eye.

“Call upon Hermes if you need anything. As of now, the alert is high.” And then, as the crackling rose and the room became blinding, he murmured, “Be careful, brother.”

I was talking to the guy with the rifle on the island in disco elysium and he was talking about the past and getting deep into it and suddenly there's a whole screen effect and I was thinking about how it was really cool but no it just happened that my entire screen just decided to die right there and then

#and now i have no working screen and no completed disco elysium #or any way to complete it #great #test
