What would Darius do if the player adopted another dog boy or already had one with them.
Also, how does he feel about normal dogs, not dogboys?
No one gives a shit what happens to dog people, unlike with humans. He'd be liable to kill them. Especially if they're a smaller breed. He'll spook them enough in the middle of the night to make them break out of the house in order to escape while you sleep, track them down far away from the house, finish them off, then return home and clean up before waking you with the sad news that they got out :( He's here though, he'll keep you company. Wouldn't want to risk getting anyone else now. Not when it could happen again.
He's fine with regular dogs. They're essentially like children to dog people. Same intelligence. It's also not competition to be a mate, and far from able to cause a rift between the two of you so he doesn't mind being around them.

bard. bard hear me out. you accidentally scrape up your hands on the rocks on yunobo's back when you're both lost in the moment and later on, when someone sees your hands all wrapped up and asks what happened, you get all quiet and before saying you had a rock climbing accident.
FNWKOWFMKWLDNNJ OKAY OKAY
“Ten topazes, just like you’d been looking for” you offered to the Gerudo merchant, carefully pulling the precious gems from your satchel. The high sun in Eldin hit them just right enough to make their canary coloring truly shine. She thanked you tremendously, exchanging the rupees she agreed to before she caught sight of your hands.
“My, are you alright? Did you burn your hands recently?” Ramella asked, eyeing the bandages with some concern. Your genuine smile dropped almost immediately to a nervous one. The recollection of last night hitting you like a ton of bricks - how you were so lost in the throes of passion, with one certain President of a Mining Company™️ dicking you down so well that all you could do was desperately try and hold onto his back for purchase. Unfortunately that ended up with your hands being completely scratched up after the fact - and served as a reminder for him to take a few extra rolls around Death Mountain to even the ridges of his back out. He’d helped you clean and care for your hands this morning…you were hoping nobody would notice.
Clearing your throat, you tried to gather yourself “I, um…” and your eyes wandered over to said Goron, who was currently talking with his mentor Bludo at entrance to the city, “Had a uh…rock climbing accident.”
Ramella watched your gaze float over to Yunobo, the President of YunoboCo, a Goron she often did business with. The look on your face, the bandaged hands, a “rock climbing incident”? Everything clicked into place the longer you sat silent. The Gerudo tried to conceal her sly smirk, though it was evident in her tone, “I see…perhaps you should…wear better protection next time you try to climb that rock. Would be a shame if he leaves your backside in the same fate — ah, I mean ‘it’!”
Your face burned at her words and you shielded your reddened face, “Ramella! Oh my goddess!”

Last Sentence Tag Game
Last Sentence Tag Game: Write the latest line from your wip (or post where you last left off in your art) and tag as many people as there are words in the line. Make a new post, don’t reblog.
Okay so I’m not even doing what you’re supposed to do XD I know this is meant to be fic stuff, but I haven’t been able to write fic in a bit, so have some of what I’ve actually been working on lately— a couple too-long sentences from a rp with a friend, starring a briefly-corrupted version of an oc for a completely different fandom.
….Look, I do things my own way 😅 I was tagged twice, (thanks @silcoitus and @roxnpens) so have two lines.
The pain came with a giggle she couldn’t help, another little flow of black smoke bubbling from her throat as she was pushed to the ground, the sting and burn and throb of claws through skin across her back. The laughter was uncanny and unsettling— and brief.
Open tag for anyone who wants to do it cause I’m unreliable. I can tag @facesofthefog cause this is part of the post for them lol

"They say that these woods are cursed, and haunted. I don’t think that comes as a surprise to anyone, but, they are. Tales of everything from hellhounds to spirits—from old witches to the tormented souls of cultists—are tied to the land that we’re on. But perhaps the most gruesome tale of all is that of the Lake Dweller.”

Qrow(’s Cape) is the Ideal Huntsman: A Bullet Essay
Qrow is the narrative’s ideal huntsman.
Ruby is young and imperfect, but she’s also the protagonist, and thus the first and truest representation we have of what a hunter is supposed to be – and she’s modeled herself after Qrow, who’s textually one of the best huntsmen there is in canon. They lend each other legitimacy, Qrow giving Ruby worldly skills, status, and training, Ruby lending Qrow importance in the eyes of the narrative (her protagonist-spotlight rubs off). 
Not only that, but he also picks up the role of narrator in his own right, being the only post-apocalypse Remnanter to do so. That establishes him both as a figure of great authority – being able to literally dictate what the world looks like, or, less metaphysically, having enough knowledge about the world to speak on so much of it unquestioned – and as someone the narrative places in high esteem. 
Sure, he has plenty of his own personal issues, but as a huntsman his continued survival, despite working alone on incredibly difficult missions, and his esteem in the community despite those issues speak for themselves.
The conflict at the heart of RWBY is between fairy tales and darker, “realistic” stories, and Qrow’s caught between the two.
Salem and Ozma had a happy ending, but life wasn’t fair to them afterward, and in retaliation Salem literally removed magic from the world. The whole first opening – the song that sets our expectations for the entire rest of the series – is about the places fairy-tale logic may poke through in a world that’s “unforgiving,” where “even brilliant lights will cease to burn,” to help a “simple soul” reach “victory.” And Qrow, who’s literally one of the few remaining pieces of magic left on-planet, a valued “defender” for a world “in the way of harm,” is also… the most “realistic,” adult character the show’s put time into developing. Which is to say, he’s got every bland male action hero trope going on. 
In practically his first scene he’s making cracks about waitress’s skirts – Yang had her escapade at Junior’s, but Qrow is a walking ratings bump. And his arc with alcohol, as the narrative moves from playing his drinking as a joke to treating it with graveness and solemnity, is handled far more maturely than earlier seasons might have led a viewer to believe. 
With the scythe, the spying, and the tragic backstory, Qrow could have been every bit the bitter, grizzled old veteran he plays as, except
His cape.
Tumblr media
(The first time we see him onscreen, and it’s a storybook style as Yang talks about him saving her life by showing up “just in the nick of time” to save her life by killing monsters. I.e., being a hero. Note that the cape is practically his only defining feature.)
Capes are impractical in a fight, especially if your opponent is swinging around giant cutty things. They work better as part of a superhero’s costume than a soldier’s, and with how much bad luck Qrow has, you’d think he would’ve gotten rid of it ages ago. Barely anyone wears them, even in RWBY, home of impractical combat outfits galore: apart from him, it’s Ruby, Summer, Maria, and Ozma. Which places him in an interesting lineage! (All of whom, coincidentally, have magic powers.) 
We already know he built himself and Harbinger off of his hero, Maria, who he knew only as a legend, and we know neither he nor Summer changed their looks since the picture we’ve seen of STRQ was taken (ignoring his v7 remodel), but that the Branwens probably wouldn’t be super enthusiastic about their bad luck charm turning what could have been useful fabric into a useless – and possibly dangerous, if anyone caught sight of a bright red cape in the woods – cosmetic item. So: Summer had a cape at Beacon. At some point after having met Summer, presumably after becoming a fan of the Grimm Reaper’s, Qrow began wearing a cape, which he would continue to wear throughout the happiest, brightest, most fairy-tale part of his life. You know. Like a hero.
Ruby supports this interpretation! Her cape also marks her as a hero – or, in her case, a protagonist – but, since she’s the most prominent/visible/important character who wears one, her qualities also confer to capes in general. Which is to say, since she’s a heroic, idealistic fairy-tale child, all capes – and specifically the one which matches hers, worn by someone who cares a great deal about her and even looks up to her as a moral compass – signify heroism and idealism.
Ruby’s cape, however, is not a symbol of idealism inandof itself. Rather, I’d argue that her specific cape symbolizes her legacy, both as Summer’s daughter – red cape, white cape; red petals, white petals – and as the silver-eyed hero who’s set to push back Salem/the forces of evil with her Care Bear Stare powers. (You know, the ones that are weirdly handwavey and idealistic, even for This universe.) She wears her cape to honor her hunter family and live up to the shoes they left for her. Why does Qrow still wear his?
Tatters
Tumblr media
(Right: Ozma in a pristine and decorated cape and suit of armor, every inch a fantastical wizard-knight. Left: Qrow, vagrant hunter. Note the difference in their capes' lengths, too.)
We know doing good means a Lot to Qrow, to the point that finding out his work wasn’t saving the world the way he thought it was nearly broke him in v6. With STRQ disbanded, his lifelong relationship with his twin soured, and Summer dead, he would have been grasping at any straw he could find to keep going. The cape is a promise, to Summer, to himself, and to Ozpin, the man who saw promise in him, that he’ll be what a good huntsman should be: someone who kills monsters and protects the innocent. A hero.
Those ideals have taken a heavy beating, which we can see in every tear where fang, claw, blade, or airship door asserted the stupidity of wearing a floppy piece of fabric to a battlefield, but he hasn’t sewn those tears up or replaced them with a pristine, new cape. There’s an honesty in that, in refusing to pretend things are better than they are but stubbornly continuing to strive for those ideals anyway, and if this is the same cape he’s been wearing since Beacon (which I think it is; we haven’t seen anything to suggest that Qrow replaces anything unless said replacements are dropped into his lap as a strong suggestion by old and powerful friends with a control streak), it carries a long history of successes and failures.
(It makes sense that his new v7 cape seems to be more tattered, then: with everything in v6, his ideals have certainly taken a heavy bashing, and yet he’s come out with, at the very least, a fresh outlook on what it means for him to protect others. Still, I worry about what it says that the v7 cape looks shorter.)

Fucking amazing vocals and riffs that pound and groove into your head like a jackhammer. Didn't know I needed a Slam record that sampled Elder Scrolls, Lil Jon, and Trapaholics Mixtape but here it is. Powerful and beautiful. Firm and loving.

The Lake of Rage
Or why dragon tamers had a bad reputation for about two hundred years before modern times changed that perception
A long time ago, there had been a great dragon tamer who lived in Johto. His might was so great that he boasted himself to be higher than the imperial family who still ruled at the time. And, at some point, greater than the will of the gods. This tamer bullied the people of Johto into following his will, threatening destruction by his dragons; it wasn't surprising he became a warlord at some point, conquering the territories of others.
He said his might allowed him to do as he pleased and he demanded the daughter of the daimyo ruling Mahogany Town. She was a princess of untold beauty who raised Magikarp in her back garden, with a gentle heart who loved her people more than anything. However her dear Magikarp were her treasures, and she treated them all as if they were more precious than gold. They were her friends and dear companions and they also loves her dearly.
If she refused the dragon tamer would cause untold damage to the town and its people. So of course the princess agreed to marry him, under the promise she could take her Magikarp with her. The dragon tamer agreed to this and they were quickly married, the celebration a mess of a reception of debauchery. Yet the princess remained polite and faithful to her husband, bearing through the events with grace.
However despite getting what he wanted, he wanted more, more, more as he felt entitled to everything, falling to what the locals called 'dragon sickness', for when a greed knew no mortal bounds and got out of hand.
The princess was soon ignored, replaced quickly by more wives, more concubines, more women than anyone could count. All to date his endless greed for all the extravagances in the world. She was left with her Magikarp who kept her company and kept her spirits up.
One day one of his men wished for the princess, having listed after her for some time. The dragon tamer agreed, saying he had no need of her, having forgotten even her name. The princess was dishonored in this way and, as a result, could no longer withstand the shame that had come into her life and ended herself right in front of her husband.
This action caused her Magikarp to become enraged, becoming powerful beings all at once. In their rage and fury to get revenge upon the dragon tamer who ruined their beloved princess, they became dragons in their own right and killed the dragon tamer. It is said in their anger they caused a crater to appear, which soon filled with their tears and the resulting rain that fell afterwards.
They lived in the lake afterwards, propagating, allowing their descendants to inherit their nobility and fury. To this day, there isn't a Magikarp born in the Lake of Rage that hasn't inherited the memories of those who passed before, since the first generation raised by the princess.
Meanwhile the dragon tamer had aired many children who started families of their own, one of which began a bloodline in Johto. The princess had other siblings, one of which married into the Tsuchiya clan at one point, resulting in the bloodline that leads to Yuri's family today.

What would normal Darius and Guard Dog Darius if their partner for owner passed? Tragic accident, terminal illness, or in the happiest of cases natural causes?
Devastated. For both.
For Guard Dog Dare, he'd end up a stray, he'd refuse to let anyone else take him in.
He'd keep one of your possessions with him always. Maybe a few of them, in a little box he totes around everywhere. But he definitely wears something of yours, a necklace perhaps. Rubs it between his fingers when he remembers you.
Regular Dare would likely end up drinking himself to death. He tried. He tried so hard to be happy. And it didn't work. So he'd just sink further and further into his depression until one day Dean comes knocking at the door, wandering why he hasn't been to work in a few days. And there's no answer.

**minimum of one horror per day for the spooky pre-season**
nw: 4/20 Massacre
illegal pot farms, national parks/BLM and property rights
every state agent is a fed; park ranger Rick or pig?
there are illegal, white-owned grows on reservations: harassing locals, polluting land and drawing cops—endangering the youth, women and queer people. they could’ve took this film conceptually beyond a crappy insta-filtered, gag-ridden crap pile, made it based in some rl horror, but that’s a project for brighter hands.
aave misuse & butchery, (2018) but feels much older like r-slur & all.
i need to go camping fr.
who tf calls hot dogs “lips and assholes”??
super porno delivery, weird “lesbian friend” stereotyping
okay nope, can’t finish it. Please don’t watch this movie—not even for a laugh :(

you know how much i hate that everybody just expects me to bounce back. - Dustin to Nancy
A sigh fell from her lips as she looked over at him. Ever since they'd been taken from Hawkins, Nancy knew the whole group had been finding it hard to focus on a brand new city's secrets when all of them just wanted to get back home to help with the upside down. "I know," she said softly, gently placing her hand on top of his to give it a squeeze. He'd gone through a lot lately with the loss of Eddie and then their strange reunion. "You've been to hell and back. Literally. Don't listen to anyone who tries to tell you how you should or shouldn't be feeling." Looking over into his eyes, she offered a comforting smile. "And I'm here if you need someone to talk to, okay?"

Colby 🖤:
Do you wanna be in a video with Corey,Sam,Me and Jake?
You:
Yeah sure what is it?
Colby 🖤:
Who is most likely to,it’s for Sam’s channel x
You:
Okay cool I’ll come to the living room now I’m just doing my makeup give me like 10 minutes x
Colby 🖤:
Okay cool nw see you in a min x
Tumblr media
I walked downstairs after finishing my eyeliner and walked to the kitchen next to the living room and grabbed a drink of water.
Colby came up behind me whilst I turned the tap on,he rested his head on my shoulder,his hands wrapped around my waist. “Hey baby.” I said smiling and turning around,his hands cornering me against the sink.
“You okay?” I asked as he kissed my neck. “Mhm.” He smiled as he kissed me cheek.
I smiled walking over to sofa,holding his fingers in my hand after he had stopped cornering me and we sat down next to each other as Sam began the intro.
Tumblr media
“Might be weird,might be a little sexual,who knows?” Sam said and I laughed along with everyone else as Colby watched me with a soft gaze as he laughed along,his gaze lasting a bit too long for viewers to think were just friends.
I grabbed a card first because I was at the end of the sofa and read it aloud, “Who is most likely to be the hottest dilf.” And I burst out laughing hiding my face and pointing at Colby.
“Definitely Colby I could see him with a kid on his arm.” I said confidently sipping on my water.
“Nah it’s gotta be Corey.” Sam stated as everyone else pointed at Corey,I felt embarrassed,being the odd one out but everyone knew about our relationship and wouldn’t hold it against me let alone make fun of me.
Tumblr media
Colby soon after picked up a card and read aloud, “Most likely to fall in love with someone much older?” And immediately hands were pointed at me.
“Just because I like fictional dilfs,this is discrimination.” I gasped jokingly,holding in a laugh “That’s exactly why we pointed at you.” Corey said laughing.
“Bully.” I said under my breathe in fake rage.We swiftly moved on after I fought back for a while.
Tumblr media
Corey then picked up a card and burst out laughing trying to read out his card in a fit of laughter.
“Most likely to admit their darkest secret when drunk?” He finally got out and my head flew into my lap as everyone pointed at me.
I thought back to the day people found out me and Colby were sleeping together,how did this happen? Well exactly that I told everyone whilst I was drunk.
I didn’t mean to and Colby quickly dragged me away and back to Colby’s apartment where I slept and then woke up with memories I didn’t want,texts I didn’t want to reply to,a hangover that made me feel like death was upon me and a not so happy boyfriend.
“Okay so this is unfair.” I said calmly lifting my face up and feeling the obvious blush present on my face.
Tumblr media
It soon circled back to my go and I picked up a card,when Sam said it was mostly weird and a little bit sexual he was lying.
It was heavily sexual with much less weird things than probably intended. I picked up my card praying for it to be funny and I sighed.
“Most likely to have a secret sex tape?” I said before I accepted defeat that I was never going to get a vanilla card…and then I pointed to Colby.
“Why me?!” Colby shouted and I giggled to myself “Colby have you made a secret tape?” I asked calmly and he laughed shaking his head accepting defeat himself.
It was only me who pointed at him,Colby pointed at Corey whilst everyone else pointed at Colby.
At this point Colby had accepted defeat and so I had,however for different reasons.
Tumblr media
“Most likely to have kids?” Corey asked and I replied “Oh definitely you.” I said without hesitation.
Corey seemed like the person to have kids and most people knew that he did want kids at some point.
He said he hates kids but in actuality he’s a huge softie <3.
Tumblr media
After the video was over me and Colby went back to his apartment and laid on the sofa together whilst he edited and I watched love hard on Netflix.
“You really think I’d be a dilf?” Colby asked me out of nowhere. “Definitely,I can see it already.” I said honestly laughing a little to myself.
“Sure love.”
