Please know that you all mean the world to me and the fact you did this... I was close to tears man, genuinely. This world, and I know I’ve said it a million times, is my baby, and that you all did this... fuck. It just makes me unimaginably happy. Thank you.
Please give your appreciation and love to the wonderful artists who made this possible, and support them where you can. They all did an amazing job.

6! Preferably for Mariza and Delta but you can do whoever you want
"I missed you... a lot"
It'd taken a good deal of time for Mariza and Delta's... relationship to even out after Mariza's ascension.
It'd taken the half desperate pleadings of someone far too exhausted to keep up a one sided fight for it to stop, a fire no longer fueled by oxygen left to smolder. Then they were left with what remained, a goddess who didn't know who she was, and a pirate who remembered everything but didn't know where to start.
So they started anyway, because when had they ever planned for anything?
The bottom of the ocean, contrary to the superstitions of sailors who'd never so much as swam a reef, was far more lively than an eternal quiet. Just because the cool depths only contained the echoes of humans didn't mean they were devoid of life, only human life. Though for some that didn't make a difference. It made the perfect spot for a mer and the embodiment of the ocean to sit and watch the world go by, the occasional curious fish swimming around Mariza's torso and extra limbs, weaving in and out as though the goddess were nothing but coral.
"Guess they like 'ya huh?"
Delta laughed as the guppy darted away from Mariza's claws, the goddess unable to contain a small chuckle of her own.
"Well, they know better than to be near a shark. I think they want me to protect them from you."
"Right, because I'm the more deadly of the two of us, you're ridiculous."
"I dunno," Mariza smiled impishly, "Those teeth of yours are pretty sharp."
"Mari. I've seen you bite boats in half. Come on."
Delta whacked Mariza with her fin, enough to push her forward, but no further than that. Of course, retaliation was swift, and those same tendrils that were a fish's playground wrapped around Delta's tail and hoisted her vertical, then in a loop. The cycle continued until both were cackling messes, throwing small handfuls of sand in each others' direction as they wheezed.
"Ha- haha- Can't believe you're this easily winded. Aren't you supposed to be a god?"
"Yeah well- I'm still- still getting used to it. It's not like I'm laughing all that much around Samira."
Ah, that pleasant company. Surely a more jovial presence you couldn't find.
"No kidding. I can't say that I've laughed this hard in a while either. I missed this."
Cold regret seeped into the waters around them. For what it was worth, Mariza tried to give a sarcastic half smile, though it didn't quite reach her eyes.
"Did you now?"
Too late to pretend she didn't mean it now.
"I did. I missed you... a lot. When you slipped under the water... Thought I'd never see you again. But hey, lucky me, right?"
"Lucky that I didn't end up sinking you when you came up and hugged me out of the blue."
"Hey! How was I supposed to know you had all the memory of a brain-dead sunfish left?"
"Brain dead- HEY!"
The bickering continued, but Delta couldn't help the smile that clung to her face each time Mariza let out that laugh of hers, or looked away for a brief moment.
She really was lucky, huh?
It stung she still missed her, sometimes.

find the word tag game!
@writinglittlebeasts tagged @joyful-soul-collector which is my main, to find the words deep, trouble, probably, and fall! Very exciting, lets crack in:
Deep (I've used it 60 times....which I guess makes sense considering it's the Literal Ocean but still lol. Here I chose #14)
“I’m gonna need you to stop looking at me like that,” Tatum said, glaring at Art. Art blinked, and rearranged his face into what he hoped was a more neutral one.
“I--Sorry, it’s just… I didn’t think you killed people,” Art said, feeling stupid as the words left his mouth.
“We wouldn’t be here if I didn’t,” Tatum said dully. “We’d be dead ten times over.”
In that moment, Art saw a horrible darkness in Tatum’s eyes, somehow deeper and more terrifying than he’d seen before. Tatum had absolutely no remorse for killing. He didn’t care in the slightest.
It was only when he looked at Loch that the darkness faded.
Trouble (only 3 times! Here's #2)
“But… that doesn’t make sense,” Tatum said, trying to wrap his head around it. “Having dark skin doesn’t do anything to them, it’s not hurting anybody--”
“It’s less about whether Seven’s skin offended them or something, and more about how Seven’s skin color made it easier to hurt them. Like I said, people don’t care as much about people with dark skin, and that includes people like the police. People hurt and kill and kidnap and do all kinds of horrible shit to people with dark skin, people like Seven, people like me, because they know they won’t get in trouble for it,” Art said, now looking angry. Anger looked odd on Art’s face, he never usually saw Art angry.
But it made sense. Just thinking about the fact that apparently, people thought of Art like this as well was enough to make Tatum’s blood boil.
Probably (#34/36)
“Maybe they were hidey spikes. Like the Hug Fish.”
“The Hug Fish?” Art said with a raised eyebrow.
“Yeah!” Loch said, his eyes turning bright. “Tay says they can hide their whole body, like a octopus! Right, Tay?”
Tatum smirked and nodded.
“…do you mean cuttlefish?” Art said with a small laugh. But Loch frowned at him as he took another bite.
“No, pretty sure it’s Hug Fish. But Tay says if we ever see one then we probably can’t hug it. Hug Fish only hug fish.”
“Do they now?” Art said, now clearly trying to keep a straight face for Loch.
“Yep.”
“Well, that’s good to know.”
Fall (#23/28)
He took it hesitantly, staring at the strip of meat with a mixture of curiosity and disgust. Not that it didn’t look delicious, it did, he was more disgusted with the fact that he wanted it so badly. Eventually he sat up fully, and after an encouraging look from Tatum, took a bite.
It was the most amazing thing he ever tasted. The fish seemed to fall apart in his teeth, the texture not at all the slimy, odd feeling he remembered from having fish as a child. The thing that surprised him the most though was--
“It’s sweet!” Art exclaimed. Tatum laughed at the look on his face, cutting him another piece with his knife.
“Yes, these ones are sweet. Different parts kinda change on the sweetness, I usually like the tail more on these ones, it’s not as sweet as the head and fins.”
“What do the fins taste like?” Art said. Tatum cut one off and handed it to him. When Art ate it he nearly choked. It tasted like he’d just eaten a spoonful of molasses. “Oh god--jesus, good thing we don’t eat the heads, I don’t think I could handle more than a couple fins.” Tatum just smiled and handed him another piece.
Well that was fun! So for everyone I tag, and anyone who wants to in general, I want you to find tired, weapon, red, and pierce.

Rules: List Five Comfort Characters And Tag Five People
Thank you @duxvitrum <3
Sera (Dragon Age: Inquisition
Chloe Price (Life is Strange)
Haruka Tenoh/Sailor Uranus (Sailor Moon)
Wynonna Earp
Vi (Arcane)
...it's mildly concerning how big the overlap between 'comfort character' and 'fucking explodes in enraged screaming over fandom's poor treatment of said character' is for me.
Honorary shout out to my hand-crafted comfort blorbo Lyoka, of course!
Tags are harddd. @jormungandre , @kinkishi , I know @fattyaly was already tagged but I don't care <3, @lankinmoon and @thel3tterm
(of course feel free to ignore. also feel free to consider yourself tagged if you want to do the fun thing!).
#Alex I'm sorry your formatting was being WEIRD on me so I broke the reblog chain#also am not tagging the ComicFury gang 'cause we interact mostly about our original characters and for some reason this feels awkward#my brain do be weird and overthinking like that

Last Line Tag
I’m still catching up on tags and shit lol.
Was tagged this time by @writerfae soooo here we go!
Their harried recitation stops only when they reach the Diviner’s tower. Their resolve carries them forward, even as their breath rattles at the third floor landing. Impatience scuttles under their skin.
All their prayers have amounted to nothing. Nadia’s apartment is as empty and untouched as the last time Simone stepped inside it.

last line tag
@lucky-is-a-writer tagged me in a last line tag way back in like April but I wanna do it now! so the last thing I really wrote was yesterday and it was for this story that I'm testing out? idk if I'll really stick with it but
“Hey,” his voice was low and commanding, but it softened with his smile as he patted the spot next to him on the couch. “C’mere, Miss Mackey. Rest for a sec.”
I stayed standing. He raised an eyebrow and said, “What can you do about any of this right now?”
I dropped my shoulders and sighed dejectedly, but I fell onto the cushion and turned to face him. He looked so tired and handsome, his hair ruffled and his storm-cloud eyes shadowed, and my heart ached with wanting for him. I watched him reach over me and push a strand of my hair behind my ear. I went still at his touch, but relaxed as his thumb ran over my cheek. “Is this okay?” he asked.
“Yes.” I closed my eyes and let my head fall back against his hand. He stroked my hair so gently I wanted to cry. “I like it when you call me that,” I murmured.
“Miss Mackey?” he asked, his fingers falling to my neck. He scratched me lightly, and I felt like a cat.
“Mhm.”
“I like calling you Miss Mackey too.” Ben nudged me toward him, and I adjusted so that I was laying on his chest. This was probably crossing a line—there was little that was platonic about cuddling your neighbor and co-conspirator at one o’clock in the afternoon—but he radiated warmth, and his arm wrapped around my waist while the other continued to comb through my hair, pushing it behind my ear. I never wanted to leave this spot.
Ben’s fingers skimmed the skin exposed at my waist where my shirt rode up, and just barely, I noticed his breath hitch, and he moved his palm up my rib cage, over my sweater. “You tired?” he asked.
“Just a little,” I said.
He began to move. “I can go, and you can nap, and we can reconvene tomorrow,” he said.
“Hey, no.” I squeezed his waist. “Please don’t go.”
He froze. “You sure?”
“I’m sure,” I said. “Stay.”

In the song amaranth by nightwish, I really liked the line "Alone, without himself." I think that'd be a good one for the drabble game.
And where does victim become villain?
The throne room is empty, it has been for some time now. Once upon a time, there had been people there--once upon a time, he had been loved. He had been revered as a fighter, as a leader, something in line of the gods. And now, here he is, without so much of a person to speak to.
And when she comes in, standing much straighter than she used to, but there is no smile to grace him when he holds his arms out to her. An attempt at something, anything--but the damages could not be repaired. He knew at the end of the day, that this cannot be fixed.
There was nothing left of who he used to be, and instead of embracing the little girl who used to hug him tight, he embraces something else. Death comes to take him that night and he gives no fight--for he has nothing left worth saving about himself.

Hi! Thank you for the ask!
🍇 I want to get to know your work better
I have a WIP page for that here: https://spellboundinks.tumblr.com/the-ichor-lineage It’s subject to change at any time (especially the location names I’m constantly changing my mind about those).
My WIP is a YA Fantasy that takes place in another dimension similar to ours called Caelum. Harmony is one of a dozen elementals gifted with extraordinary abilities passed down through her family from the gods (called Divine). When her abilities start malfunctioning she and a handful of other elementals go on a roadtrip across Caelum to find the Divine of Time to set things right.

Thank!

💕 Have any of your WIPs (or the research you’ve done for them) changed the way you view the world around you?
Ehhhh. Not super a lot. Usually I write whatever comes to me, and I am, generally, a live and let live kind of person, I guess? I feel that way more about reading things than I ever do about writing them myself.

Nagato, who is the most important person in your life and why? Who is the person you most despise and why?
“Maybe this isn’t the answer you’re looking for but the Muhomono are my family, and family is what I value above all else. One of them might be my lover, one of them might act like my father, or my sister or my cousin, but without them I wouldn’t consider I would have been what I am without their support. As for a person I despise most... I might have to say Oishi because that particular incident is still fresh and rather atrocious.”

💘
💘 List 3 traits you admire in one of your OCs (preferably ones you’d like to emmulate in your own life).
Oof, but all of my OCs are messes...just kidding. Some of them are just strugs to func (in the words of JVN). Actually, I think Dave Litman has the most admirable qualities. He’s an amazing parent. Parent goals, honestly. Some traits of his I like:
1. He’s caring. Not just about his daughter, but her friends and their families. He really looks out for everyone and makes sure they’re okay.
2. He’s laid back. I could benefit from some of his zen.
3. He’s optimistic.
Thank you for asking!

Temperence
temperance: can you describe a strange dream you’ve had?
I have a lot of really vivid dreams, honestly. And a lot of them are influences for stories I’d like to write one day! I type out the dream on my phone after I’ve had it and this is one of the more recent ones:
So I was living in this fantasy city that looked sort of like Venice with the waterways and shit, with a small little island in the center where important stuff went down. I was in a traveling band of performers, but we also acted as sort of guardians? We each had our own “class”, like one girl was hand-to-hand but did crazy damage. (It definitely might have been inspired by RWBY.) Another was a rogue but more like an arcane rogue with natural magic and etc. Anyway, we were performing and I think I was something with dual wielding that was imbued with magic. Magic also wasn’t strongly believed in except for the old ways so the magic in the group was seen as like a trick more than anything hence why the traveling “performers”.
But we were in this city temporarily when, I’m not sure what it was, but something blocked out the sun and fluorescent lightning started to become really strong to the point of hurting people along with weird neon/fluorescent creatures. It was fantasy but there was still modern stuff all throughout the city. People started to vacate the city, but the mayor I think put it into law that no one could leave. So me and two of the other girls go kicking into their court, where they don’t want outsiders helping and they’re instead enlisting the help of extremists that wanted to use means that would ruin the city, but I was on the warpath in the city hall trying to find their “lawbringer” who I guess was sort of like judge, jury, and executioner of the place and I needed him to “delete” the law because they liked plugged laws in to enact them. And then I woke up.
