he  had  terrible  timing  it  seemed.  he  locked  eyes  with  clea  as  he  walked  towards  the  sanctum  doors  and  for  a  moment  he  hesitated,  debated  whether  or  not  to  continue  forward.  was  this  a  bad  time  to  go  waltzing  in  to  see stephen?  or  maybe  it  was  a  good  time  considering  who’d  just  left.  either  way,  tony  chose  not  to  head  home  and  instead  stepped  into  the  sanctum  to  lock  eyes  on  the  sorcerer  as  he  paced  back  and  forth. 
“  that’s  my  name,  honey.  don’t  wear  it  out. ”   door  shut  behind  him  he  walked  towards  the  front  desk,  brow  raised  on  his  features.   “ everything  okay?  something  i  need  to  know  about?  ”    even  if  for  once  tony  didn’t  want  to  intrude,  he  still  did.    “ she  didn’t  look  too  happy. ”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
it   was   hard   to   fight   the   immediate   snip   of   irritation   at   the   question   posed,      the   sorcerer   instead   taking   a   moment   to   run   a   hand   over   his   features.      he   could   feel   a   headache   coming   on      —      a   brief   glow   of   green   echoing   from   shaken   fingertips   before   he   sighed   in   open   relief.
there   was   a   perhaps   too-long   pause   between   them   as   he   considered   his   response,      "      it's..      exceedingly   personal,      "      came   a   lame   excuse   of   a   reply.      broken   digits   rose   to   run   through   unkempt   hair,      ruining   it   further   in   the   motion   uncaringly.      "      she   was..      displeased,      when   it   came   to   my   inquiring   over   breaking   our   spiritual   bond.      "      his   left   hand   raised,      a   shining   beam   of   light   surrounding   his   left   ring   finger.      "      i   love   her      —      but..      "      he   groaned,   head   hanging   low.      "      it's   personal,      "      he   repeated,      not   quite   wanting   to   spill   details   without   prompting.

IMPORTANT INFO FOR THOSE MAKING NEW RP BLOGS
so i've been hearing many a person having problems with not seeing the legacy text editor in the top right corner of their browser. it would look something like this for those who do have it:
Tumblr media
from what i'm going to assume this means that the staff is on the roll with fully implementing and enforcing the beta text editor on everyone. not only that but i'm also going to assume that ( and wouldn't be surprised if ) they're going to be making a site wide update within the next month or two making it to where everybody has to use it regardless to whether or not they want to.
and not only that but it's also getting to the point to where the new xkit is slowly but surely breaking for people because of how outdated it is and the staff enforcing us to use the beta text editor. so i definitely recommend y'all getting xkit rewritten for when the day actually does come for us to permanently use beta text editor.
a couple of addons i recommend y'all getting would be of the following:
limit checker: this. is. an. absolute. life. saver. i kid you not. it tells you the number of asks you sent as well as text / video / videos / etc. posts you've made among a few other things. it's super neat.
mass deleter: unfortunately this only deletes stuff from your drafts and queue but it's definitely worth getting if you have tons of stuff and / or are a hoarder.
mass unliker: i like to sort through my likes every once in a while tbh but if it gets out of hand and you tend to have 8,645,132,154,568 likes then feel free to use this so that you don't have to go through each and every thing in your likes.
mutual checker: do i really need to explain this one?? being able to see who you're moots with via dash is 1,000,000 times easier than going to your followers and CTRL + F nonstop.
tag replacer: having a mass tag replacer is, without a doubt, an absolute life saver. this is especially useful for us roleplayers who tend to change our aesthetics from time to time and have updated our tags. and even if you don't change your tags regularly it's still worth getting this.
tag tracking+: this lets you know when you've been tagged in something!! ah!! 10 out of 10 love it.
timestamps: this is a must for just about all of us in the tumblr rpc. it lets us know when those we follow / moots have posted! so that definitely helps out a lot. it also allows you to choose between the standard format and iso 8601 format, so there's that!
trim posts: okay ... so this addon was a little confusing at first but rest assured that it's 1,000,000 times easier now! in fact, you don't even need that tutorial anymore thanks to a neat little update they did within the past two weeks!
there's a bunch of other little addons you can pick from as well but these are some that i use and can't seem to recommend enough tbh!
now i'm not saying that you should outright give up on the legacy text editor or anything ( let alone the new xkit ) but there will come a time where they'll both cease to exist and that's why i'm making these posts.

“that  almost  sounds  like  relief.  is  it? ”    tony  stepped  closer  to  the  other  man,  his  hands  inside  his  pockets  though  they  itched  to  reach  out  to  him  and  pull  him  in  closer.     “ you  know  you’ll  regret  saying  that  in  a  couple  of  hours  when  i’m  being  a  thorn  in  your  side. ”     still,  the  mechanic  couldn’t  hide  the  growing  grin  inside,  disguised  as  a  smirk  on  the  outside.     “i  hate  to  admit  it  out  loud  and  i  need  you  to  forget  it  as  soon  as  it  comes  out  my  mouth  so  you  don’t  hold  it  against  me,  but,  i  missed  you. ”
Tumblr media
@xstrange·   :   ❛  i’m so glad to have you back.  ❜
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the   sorcerer   had   an   air   of   hesitance   despite   his   initial   relief,      almost   as   if   he   wasn't   sure   if   he   would   still   be   welcome   after   all   this   time   apart.      after   a   pause   he   gave   a   much   more   genuine   smile   than   usual,      mismatched   eyes   growing   fond   as   he   held   no   stop   with   his   emotions.      not   this   time,      at   least.      "      i   missed   you   too,      "      he   murmured,      voice   quiet   enough   to   be   a   murmur   before   he   spoke   up.      "      i   do   hope   you   haven't   gotten   into   too   much   trouble   without   me   ?      "

Tumblr media
she’s lost track of time sitting here perched atop her desk while ignoring the perfectly good chair that should be pulled up behind it ———– minutes, hours; they all seem to blend together in a seemingly unending procession and definitely unending paperwork.
the knock registers, but she doesn’t glance up immediately —— the last time she’d done it, fury had been looming large there in the doorway looking for an axe to grind, and she’d been unwilling to engage. this time when her eyes finally glance up and over the datapad in her hand, she’s surprised to see stephen there instead. 
Tumblr media
         “hi you,” her expression softens into a mix of confusion and affection. “passing through, or can you come inside for a little while?”
Tumblr media
how   telling   was   it   that   at   her   acceptance   the   sorcerer   gave   a   small   smile   filled   with   relief,      any   dubious   wonder   of   her   reaction   to   his   arrival   dashed   easily.      he   walks   a   few   steps   inside,      mismatched   eyes   taking   in   her   office   before   finding   himself   leaning   against   the   very   desk   she   sat   upon.      
Tumblr media
"      i   can   stay,      "      gave   a   low   murmur   of   amusement,      shaken   hand   raising   to   run   scarred   digits   through   soft   light   hair.      "      it   appears   that   time   moved   differently   in   the   dimension   i   was   needed   in      —      i   apologize   for   the   wait.      "

THE WOLF PRINCE turned to face his friend. He opened his mouth. “ No, but well.. I mean because I feel like I am a worthy member since.. I am good.” Caspian says. He now felt awkward asking that question.
Tumblr media
He sits on the chair across from the doctor. “ Sorry Mister Strange, it’s just it’s one of my wishes.” The werewolf had a desire to help people, he is a prince after all. He relaxed his shoulders, while fixing his hair.
Tumblr media
stephen   gave   a   low   huff   of   amusement   at   the   other   man's   apparent   excitement   of   the   idea   of   being   an   avenger      —      only   for   that   smile   to   fade   into   a   soft   huff   at   being   akin   to   a   genie.      he   waved   a   hand,      magicks   sweeping   outwards   so   he   may   blow   a   puff   of   freezing   cold   air   in   his   face   for   silent   retaliation.
Tumblr media
"      were   i   genie   i   would   give   the   idea   of   aiding   you   more   help,      "      his   voice   was   wry,      an   eyebrow   raising.      "      you   can   help   people   without   being   an   avenger,      hm   ?      i'm   not   an   avenger.      "

#13  :    devil’s  backbone    --    the  civil  wars
Tumblr media
shaken   hands   creak   from   the   strain   upon   them   in   fists   made   of   stress,      the   sorcerer   sitting   on   the   bedside   and   leaning   over   a   previously-fallen   trickster.      mismatched   eyes   gleamed   with   magicks   as   he   siphoned   energy   from   himself,      and   into   loki   with   a   light   sheen   of   sweat   over   his   brow   in   exertion.      for   as   much   as   he   loathed   to   admit..   
Tumblr media
"      i   don't   care   if   you're   a   bastard,      just   wake   up..      "      he   whispered   to   a   seemingly-unconscious   silver   tongue,      his   magicks   stopping   once   it   appeared   death   released   her   immediate   interest.

the   question   was   met   with   a   visible   air   of   confusion      —      the   sorcerer's   head   tilting   towards   the   side   as   eyebrows   furrowed   in   thought.      
Tumblr media
"      what..      exactly   are   you   talking   about   ?      since   when   have   i   been   someone   that   deemed   who   would   become   a   member,      much   more   so   a   member   of   the   avengers   in   general   ?      "

@spiderbitten​  asked  :    100
#100  :    everybody  wants  to  rule  the  world    --    lorde
Tumblr media
the   sorcerer   gives   a   low   hum   as   he   looks   out   from   the   window   atop   a   grand   staircase      —      hands   folded   behind   his   back,      hidden   away   from   view   by   the   gentle   movements   of   the   cloak   of   levitation   ever   faithfully   upon   his   shoulders.      he   had   wondered   how   long   it   would   take   peter   to   arrive,      stephen   turning   from   where   he   stood   and   giving   a   half-smirk   at   the   younger   man's   appearance.      it   was   too   long   since   their   last   visit,      he   wondered   if   he'd   visit   again   at   all..
Tumblr media
"      nothing   ever   lasts   forever,      "      he   murmured,      though   his   voice   carried   throughout   the   room   from   how   silent   the   halls   echoed.      "      peter      —      "      the   sorcerer   addressed,      smile   turning   more   genuine.      "      how   are   you   ?      "

 if kon is supposed to take a hint that he’s interrupting something, he doesn’t catch it. as someone always headfirst in battle, idleness isn’t anything he recognizes as occupied time. if anything, this is the perfect timing – he’s come just at a time when stephen isn’t busy at all.
his boots touch the floor quietly, unblinking at the bright blue light as it comes, and allows himself a glance around the room as it subsides - taking in the odd things he’d be curious enough to touch if he had the chance to. he seems confused about the mention of an appointment though, until something clicks— 
“oh, i’m not here for a … check-up or anything,” he says, assuming that has something to do with the doctor part, because why would anyone need an appointment for superhero stuff— 
“doctors aren’t my thing, y’know? well, not your kind of doctor, you’re fine! but like, from a clone’s perspective, i— nevermind.” more importantly—
Tumblr media
“ … anyway, does this mean you got a secretary?” a magic secretary in a fancy place like this must be a total babe.
Tumblr media
vishanti's   name,      it   was   like   peter   parker   walked   into   the   sanctum   in   a   different   appearance.      the   sorcerer   merely   gave   a   slow   sigh   once   more   at   the   line   of   speech      —      finding   himself   already..   relaxing,      minutely,      seeing   as   though   it   appeared   there   was   nothing   too   terrible   in   his   future.      at   least,      not   yet.      
he   waited   patiently   for   the   rambling   to   trail   off,      an   eyebrow   slowly   raising   in   quiet   amusement   before   he   rolls   his   eyes   at   the   question.      "      wong   is   less   a   secretary,      more..      a   friend.      "      he'd   allow,      a   fleeting   smirk   at   his   chosen   answer.
mismatched   eyes   take   in   the   appearance   of   the   other   man      —      and   he   would   be   a   fool   to   ignore   the   sheer   amount   of   power   that   coarsed   through   the   young   man's   veins.      an   important   guest   ?      he   hummed,      waving   a   hand   before   him   as   he   spoke.
Tumblr media
"      given   you're   not   here   for   a   check-up..      i'm   assuming   you   had   some   other   sort   of   question   for   me   ?      "

“ Doctor. ” Stephen replies somewhat smugly as he leans in the doorway. “ There a reason you’re sitting at my desk? ” He folds his arms, almost resigned to the fact that there’s probably some transdimensional monster threatening his universe’s very existence. “ I trust this isn’t a social call, is it? ”
Tumblr media
the   sorcerer   gave   a   soft   huff   of   amusement   at   how   poised   the   other   held   himself      —      he   in   opposite   appeared   near   languid   in   his   newly-claimed   chair.      the   question   was   met   with   a   smirk,      mismatched   eyes   rolling   as   he   shook   his   head.      "      that   my   presence   would   mean   naught   but   a   catastrophe..      "      his   voice   was   wry,      a   hand   raising   to   rub   the   back   of   his   neck.      "      dying   really   takes   a   lot   out   of   you,      so   i'm   taking   a   forced   vacation,      "      he   finally   admitted,      a   small   smirk.     
Tumblr media
"      wong   threatened   to   put   me   under   again,      were   i   to   refuse.      so..      here   i   am.      have   you   missed   me   ?      "

"      what   do   you   want   ?      "      he   finally   offered   to   fill   the   stretch   of   silence,      voice   hoarse.
