Hi can I please request a Jordan x reader . Reader has power that glitch & saves Jordan. Reader hey I am lucky that I didn’t get stuck in between a wall.
Thank you.
Flying Grand Pianos - headcanons
pairing: jordan li x gn! reader
tw: cursing, mentions of uncontrolled powers, cate and sam went to prison (i'm sorry okay! they're my pookies but for this fic to work i had to do something), uh nothing much ig? unless u have a phobia of falling pianos... then maybe don't read this??
description: your powers come in handy in the weirdest situations.
a/n: hiii hopefully u enjoy this! i literally did not mean to make this as insane as it ended up being but hey i'm sick and running on like too little sleep, i hope it's still entertaining tho cause i had sm fun writing this lol. i tried to integrate everything you said into headcanons cause it felt more apt ? ig... anyways requests are open & lmk ur thoughts <3
Tumblr media
It was your final year at God U, somehow you had actually made it through the insanity that happened during junior year. You had even come out of the whole situation with a whole new group of friends… even if Cate and Sam sort of had to be locked away because of all the shit they did.
Thank whoever had decided to call the FBI because you had no idea how the entire situation might have turned out if Homelander showed up instead.
So life had turned back to normal towards the end of junior year, mostly because Vought was able to keep most of the situation quiet. Now you were only a step away from becoming an actual superhero… which was a strange situation to think about.
Your powers weren’t all that noteworthy but were insanely useful in battle and to get out of awkward conversations… especially since you were able to mostly control them.
You had the ability to glitch, which essentially meant you could manipulate the fabric of reality around you and mess with it (always with a limit of course, you weren’t an all-powerful magician). You mostly used it for teleportation or to mess with people, something that was always sooo worth it.
You also were kind of insanely good at dealing with actual glitches in computers, which made absolutely no sense but it did help adding to your skill set for your major.
There was probably one specific time where your powers worked in your favor in the best way possible. Over the past few years you sort of developed a tiny little miniscule (HUGE) crush on Jordan Li and now that you were actually able to call them your friend that tiny little crush grew into something way bigger.
What you weren’t aware of was that Jordan felt the same way, they always viewed you as this pretty incredible supe but never really had the chance to talk to you… until the whole The Woods situation. After that it almost made it harder for them to just ask you out on your date… because you had created such a tentative but strong friendship - something that Jordan hadn’t had since Luke. Something that they weren’t sure they would be able to walk away from again.
It was a few months into your senior year when the incident happened. It wasn’t something crazy like Homelander suddenly massacring the school instead it was an incident that belonged in the halls of a supe school… one of the new freshmen had somehow conjured up a piano in the middle of the damn sky and was unable to make it disappear.
The one problem with this piano was that it was falling... and falling really fucking fast.
You had been drinking one of your favorite drinks from Jitter Bean when you were surprised (and very concerned) to see a piano making its way towards Jordan - a very distracted Jordan who was talking, or rather yelling into their phone.
It barely took you a second to make the decision before you dropped your drink and glitched in Jordan’s direction - thank whatever all powerful force was out there for actually having it work because a moment later you reappeared next to Jordan and grabbed their arm before glitching again.
Suddenly you were standing in your room and Jordan was looking at you like an insane person before a loud crash and a whole bunch of yelling was heard outside the window.
Jordan shot a confused look before darting over to the window, only to find that a huge grand piano now stood (well not really it was sort of everywhere) where they had just been standing a moment ago.
You shot them a sheepish smile as they turned around to look at you with a dropped jaw.
“I actually can’t believe that worked, I’m lucky I didn’t accidentally get us stuck between a wall.”
Tumblr media
lol i have no idea what this is but i like it anyways.

Hi! Your blog is awesome. I don't know if I'm allowed to ask non-atla questions, so I hope this is okay. I'm working on a non-avatar ttrpg campaign that takes place both in a (fictional/fantasy) northern tundra region AND during a magical endless winter. The people in it aren't based on any specific culture but, given that they're successfully living in similar environments & have for countless generations, I want to draw as much inspiration & knowledge from real-life circumpolar cultures & native science as much as possible. Do you have any advice or even just fun, underappreciated ideas for winter tundra survival, things someone who grew up in a desert like me wouldn't think of on my own? If you need/want more direction: I'm particularly looking for clothing, shelters, resource gathering-practices for non-food (esp what kinds of resources would be valuable), as well as like, any fun details that evolve naturally in a culture that formed in the tundra that you'd want to see represented. I hope that makes sense ^^; Thanks so much if you decide to answer, have a good day either way <3
[I am SOOO sorry this took so long! Tumblr kept not saving my progress when i tapped "save draft" so i had to rewrite a few of these passages a few different times]
Don't worry about asking, friend, i get cultural questions all the time and i'm happy to share.
Note: my knowledge is almost entirely based on coastal tundra peoples with access to marine mammals. That's not to say it's impossible for people to live farther inland, just that it's not my area of expertise.
Clothing
Just about everything you wear is going to come off of a dead animal. This doesn't necessarily need to be the case if your fictional culture has a means of raising hardy livestock for fiber and a history of woven textiles, but even then skin clothes are warm and generally quite hard-wearing and are a good fit for living in these circumstances.
This amount of fur means lice are a perpetual problem. If you want to make that an immersive part of the game, you can work in a mechanic for checking scalps and clothing and bedding for lice.
Bird skins can also be used for clothing and waterfowl specifically has the benefit of water resistance. Fish skin can also be used for similar properties. Animal intestines can be made into a waterproof material if sewn with sinew and soaked before finishing.
On that note i'd recommend making a list of available animals and what qualities and textures their skins and furs have. Even if you don't intend on being incredibly descriptive with clothing, it's something better to have and not need than need and not have. And if you do anything else creative in a similar setting you have your nifty little source to consult.
When it comes to the actual construction of the clothes, you want a loose fit. Trapped air ia a great insulator and you want clothes to be easy to move in. Another benefit for loose-fitting upper body garments in cold weather is you can pull your arms in and keep them by your much warmer core. Not only will this option keep you comfortable, it can also prevent muscle injury or getting frostbite
Mittens can be worn on a string yoke. This doesn't have to be exclusive to children either. Wind can pick up out of nowhere and lost mittens means fingers exposed to arctic cold which can mean gangreen and amputations down the line.
Swimming or running to deliver a message may involve stripping nude, even in cold. Clothes soaked in water or sweat are deadly in the cold.
Clothes may be stored in bags outside when not in use. The low temperatures can kill bugs and bacteria. On a similar note, boots and coats are best to be hung to dry as soon as one is indoors for the day. This may mean it's normal for people to be topless indoors.
Boots should never have holes or tears. Frostbite and resulting gangreen is already bad enough but you especially do not want it on your feet
Shelter
You're going to want dwellings to have as few rooms and windows as possible and small doors. The fewer walls you have, the easier it is for heat to circulate throughout the whole dwelling. You'll probably want one room separating the door and where you sleep. Remember: trapped air is a great insulator.
The culture I've reconnected with is semi-nomadic so the permanent houses are not always occupied and a village can seem abandoned when it's just on its "off season". You can take that or leave it depending on what you're going for.
Even if the dwelling is not a tent, you're probably still going to have poles serving as a supporting frame.
Sod houses are common due to the availability of sod (the grass and the dirt its roots are tangled in). Tents made of warm, waterproof skins (like walrus skin) are also an option.
An easy way to insulate such a dwelling is to build a wall of packed snow around and fill the gaps with loose, airy snow. This traps air the same way down feathers do.
Non-Food Resource Gathering
While I imagine you meant obtaining resources outside of hunting, in a tundra or tundra-like setting, a lot of your resources are going to come from dead animals. Your garments and shelters and bedding are likely to be made of animal skins, with hollow and/or fluffy fur for warmth, or smoked intestine or fish skin, sewn with tiny stitches and soaked to keep everything flush, for waterproof boots and overlayers. Antlers and tusks are good carving materials for things like spoons and closures and slabs for armor and handles and also talismans and smoking pipes and beads and art. Baleen is good for art too, as well as boot soles and smaller sleds and beautiful baskets. Sinew and rawhide are good for thread, ties, and rope. Bones have a near infinite amount of uses from tiny wing bones to make sewing needles to huge whale bones used to build houses.
For the purposes of working this into a roleplaying game, i'd second the recommendation of keeping a list of animals in your universe and their properties, as well as the things that can be gathered from or made of them. A sort of crafting recipe guide would allow all kinds of quests and sidequests.
There are, of course, non-animal resources to gather for non-eating purposes. Soapstone is the traditional material for oil lamps. Grasses can be woven into baskets for any number of purposes, including supports to give the uppers of one's boots more structure. Wood, in the form of slices of tree trunks, can be hollowed out into bowls and small tubs and buckets or, as logs or slats, can make up flooring. Sturdy branches can be used for frames in houses, boats, and drums, and tree resin makes both good glue and antibiotic salve for closed wounds. Sod, also called turf, makes a good building material and moss is exellent insulation in boots. You can make a list of these too, if it helps.
If your fictional culture has a strong tradition of metallurgy, then they'd also mine for metal that can be used for knives. If not, slate is another option that requires significantly less fire. You could even have both and make the metal a status symbol.
Fun Details to Represent
There are so many lovely little things that show up in arctic cultures
First, a gift economy. Where a cash economy relies on a fairly individualistic culture where you work for someone else to earn capital and exchange that capital for goods and services, a more collectivist and interdependent culture natural to the harsh conditions of the tundra tends to result in a gift economy. The currency in a gift economy, to perhaps oversimplify, is favors. Someone does you a good turn, you remember that, and when you're in a position to help, you return the favor. Usually this means basic material things like hospitality and food, but the "gifts" exchanged can also be luck! King Islander boys would often wish hunters setting out at dawn good luck, with a slab of driftwood as a token of that luck, and if the hunters were successful, they'd give the boys who wished them luck a share of their catch. I believe it was Frank Ellana who remenised that this was what the world was like before money.
Another thing that would be nice to include is parenting practices considered fairly gentle to a Euro-American perspective. Physical punishments are traditionally treated as abuse and scolding a child is not only seen as wrong but something an adult ought to be ashamed of. Discipline is instead a series of moral lessons, teaching children why what they did was wrong and using stories as examples of the consequences. Given the amount of stories about the dangers of abusing a spouse or child, i'd say a lot of these lessons were proactive and preventative. Knowing someone will be hurt by it is considered enough of a deterrence to stop bad behaviors. Traditional potty training, for example, is also gentler in comparison; starting at a younger age (about six months) with more emphasis on praise and encouragment than routine. The goal here is to teach the baby to signal when they need to go so they can be taken out of mama's atigi and relieve themself in a hygenic manner instead of holding it until they get permission. Even our take on kissing is based on inhaling instead of pecking with the lips. This kind of gentleness is usually overlooked to instead focus on the badass hunter image or overall "cuteness" so it would be nice for it to be referenced.
Oral histories would be pretty neat too. I think the idea of learning to be a historian of oral histories is an interesting one and i think it has a lot of potential plot hooks for an rpg.
That's all i have for now. Sorry for the delayed response time. Happy gaming, and i'm always up for further discussion if you would like ^-^

Sooo...recently it has been very heavily implied that Penny's father is Peony, which would make Rose her uncle. Which would make her taking her girlfriend, Spare, to a family party even more awkward than normal for various reasons.
"Spare, this is my Uncle-"
"Rose, Ex-Chairman of the Pokemon League of Gallar."
"...of course you already know who he is. Anyway, please don't attack him. Uncle Rose, this is my girlfriend Spare DelRosa, a champion rank of Paldea and Ex-Hero of Arceus."
"...Ex?"
"Dad is an asshole so I quit. Still waiting on child support for Mom, the bum."
okay, I finally looked up where people were pulling that from and whoops, I should probably play the . team star backstory and mochi madness things sometime huh. 😳
anyways this is incredible tbh, can't believe Spare's not only following the Protagonist tradition of dating a former "villain" but also adding onto that by having one of them be her girlfriend's uncle FKJDSHFKJDS
(also this sent me down a thought rabbithole. Is Rose still allowed to stay in Galar? Did he get a trial even though Interpol/The United Regions Court doesn't have jurisdiction over stopping villains? Who decided his sentence? I'm so sorry I'm derailing this and rambling about Rose but it made me think a lot 😳)
I like the Star Trek concept of "jail" only being used as a last resort for people who are currently a danger to people around them and only as a temporary measure while working out some other supports, since the current prison systems all over the real world suck in unique and horrifying ways. But more importantly, I never ever saw that as a viable sentence for any of the villains anyways -- not even Lysandre, so certainly not Rose.
(................jury's still out on Ghetsis, but he's allowed to just wander around Pasio without much fuss so I guess he's fine too as long as someone's keeping an eye on him.)
More importantly, Gene was there to vouch for Rose's honesty about wanting to make it up to Galar. He definitely got community service, but what KIND? And were Archie and Maxie precedent, or did they even get a trial? None of the villains BEFORE them did, and Rose was the first one AFTER them to let himself be "caught."
When Guz first finds out that Archie and Maxie are undermining Lysandre, he says that Gene was happy that they stepped up to do environmental work, which means that the League was the organization taking responsibility for them, NOT Interpol.
Tumblr media
But there's never any mention of paperwork regarding them, so I'm pretty sure Steven was just keeping an eye on them from there on out (especially since he was invited to their wedding later).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
By the time Rose does his thing (checks watch) 6 years later, there ARE forms for each kind of incident. I'm pretty sure Gene wrote those himself.
So here's my thought: the League was still the organization that "caught" Rose. They were the ones that pressed criminal charges against him, mainly to set a precedent for future incidents (at Rose's request), and he met the same fate as Rose does in the Pieces AU: working in Hoenn as a scientist with Archie and Maxie's team on their environmental project. (Unfortunately, those two are too busy with Ultra Flare to be there much atm.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After a while, he's able to go back to Galar to work on the energy crisis (with non-League personnel in the Villain Cleanup Division keeping an eye over his shoulder just in case and generally keeping him away from Leon so as not to distress him).
All that to say, yeah. Canon encounter.

last twilight e3 thoughts feelings etc
so in the past ive watched the episodes and digested them and come back and rewatched to put together my thoughts but im kinda crunched for time today and have a mountain of work to do sooo i'm just gonna do this in one sitting and i'm so sorry if it's not as good or as coherent as what i usually deliver aaa. it's also going to be a bit longer than normal probably but i'll try to cut down on stuff that seems unnecessary or maybe just too obvious to comment on.
OH ITS STILL REALLY LONG EVEN WITH EDITING I'M SO SORRY.
oh them being playful with each other is everything to me. oh my god and Mhok learned, he listened to Porjai and he learned to organize and clean and do things with Day as an active participant so he knows where everything is and is taking control of his own life. oh we're only 3 minutes in and i'm emotional, okay.
i do love that we get to see the way Day has isolated himself and that while his family haven't helped there's also a large part of it that is his doing. ive said it before but when you're newly disabled it can be so so easy to isolate yourself. hell, i've been diagnosed for almost 10 years and i still do it from time to time as my condition worsens because it's hard. there are so many questions you have to answer, there's the anxiety of not knowing if people are going to be accommodating to your needs, and sometimes it takes twice or even three times the energy it used to take before because every action is a little harder now. it can be terrifying to put yourself out there again and you will lose friends in the process. there will be people that don't understand, that find you to be an inconvenience, that won't make accommodations for you, and it will hurt every time but saying goodbye to those people is always ultimately for the better - but it doesn't make it hurt less. as much as i'd love the realism of it, i hope we don't have to see Day go through that.
Day's story about his friend is interesting, too. he says he doesn't want to be pitied by his friends but the thing is. they just did that, they accommodated their friend, and from the sound of it they did it without judgement. so why couldn't it be the same for him? it just shows more of his anxiety and his fear.
"once i'm ready you'll be the first to get my invitation card." Porjai and Mhok's friendship means so so fucking much to me.
"i felt like my life was worthless. all i saw in people's eyes was insult."
screaming. crying. throwing up. i don't need to say anything about this but i thought you all should know it made me ill.
here's the thing, my best friend and i dated in high school, we were 16 and fucking stupid and toxic and our home lives were shit and we took it out on each other and we made each other fucking miserable by the end of things. we didn't talk again for over five years. it took time to come back together, to heal and accept our own faults in what went wrong. we stumbled here and there as we came back together but now? almost 10 years later i don't know what i'd do without him. that's my platonic soulmate, that's the one person besides my husband i can share anything with. fuck, he knows more about my life than my husband does because he was there to see me at my worst, at the scariest point in my life where i almost wasn't around anymore to see tomorrow. that kind of friendship is so fucking special, i cannot even properly put it into words, and for Mhok to keep that? to have that with Porjai? i'm so fucking glad he has that. i'm so glad he got to keep his platonic soulmate.
small aside, i love that Mhok consistently announces himself to Day. it's a little action but it's so considerate. he's honestly doing such an incredible job.
Day puts his sunglasses on like armor; like they can shield him from the judging stares or looks of pity he can't see. maybe someday he won't need them, not because his heart has hardened to take the blows, but maybe because he knows Mhok is by his side. because remember - it's the way they look at us.
"i heard you wanted to take time off and focus on badminton" Night i'm going to drown you in your own toilet. this is just furthering my thoughts from episode 2 that Night is ashamed of his brother and his condition, or perhaps that the family is trying to hide his condition for some fucking stupid reason.
the bravery it took Day to come here and admit whats happening to his is huge, but i'm also in love with the admissions admin saying sure, you can have time off, but you're not allowed to quit. you're not allowed to give up on yourself.
"we must live with hope, Day" and that's it. you have to. you just have to. every day is going to be so hard and so much, you'll have good and bad days, but at least in all those days you'll have hope. and maybe someday that hope won't be for new eyes. maybe that hope will turn into acceptance, into determination, into pride at what you've accomplished in spite of it all. in my opinion, hope is an amazing fuel but it's not sustainable, it's just a vehicle to get you to where you need to be.
Mhok asking a blind man for a tour, oh fuck fuck fuckfuckufkcufk-- Mhok essentially saying show me your world exactly as you remember it, let me in. see how things have changed and how they've remained the same and do it with me by your side.
THE WAY MHOK SHIELDS HIM AT THE LIBRARY. DAY DOESN'T NEED TO WEAR HIS SUNGLASSES LIKE ARMOR BECAUSE MHOK IS BY HIS SIDE AS HIS SHIELD. chewing my own arm off brb.
"and you also have me. nothing to be afraid of" because i will always shield you, i will always protect you, i will stand by your side AAAA--
on part 3/4 now, i promise i'll shut the fuck up soon. if you've read this far pls take this as a smooch checkpoint, i'm giving you a little forehead smooch. have you had any water today? taken your meds? relax your shoulders, unclench your jaw.
ok back to it - Mhok continuously having Day make his own selections in these various machines. Day's fate is in his hands, he can do these things himself, but Mhok will be there with him the whole way.
"my eyes don't work well but my legs do just fine." this is such a massive leap from the man that wouldn't even leave his bedroom, from the man that was suffocating in his environment. Day is no longer a dying man, a shambling corpse. he is an active participant in his own life again.
"stay close to me, that's all i need" bitch i'm gonna throw up, you can't just hit me with that after that's all i've been saying this whole time what the fuck.
OH FUCK ME. okay. alright. hang on. so when they enter the shop Mhok describes it to Day, explains where the jeans are, where the shirts are, asks him what to do and what he wants to take a look at. this is a direct antithesis of Night in episode 1 asking where Day was going to wait for him, where he could leave him so he could get his shit done. Day isn't being asked to wait, to just sit idle while life passes him by, he's being asked what he wants to do, where he wants to go, what he wants to see. FUUUUUCK. and knowing Mhok is doing this because Day expressed that he liked dressing nicely? how the fuck am i supposed to just go to my job like a normal person after this episode.
wow the shirt buttoning scene just made me so mentally ill. right now, Mhok is doing his job. he's helping Day get dressed. but someday? someday this could be Mhok dressing Day not because he needs him to help but simply because Mhok likes doing to for Day. there's the sensuality of caring for your partner, of running your hands over the planes of their shoulders, of skimming your fingers down their chest to pluck every button. it's an exploration and a declaration of love. if we get this again in a future scene and it's something like that please remember me fondly because i will perish.
at the bookstore Mhok recognizing Day doesn't want to wait, but Day has become so accustomed to the other people in his life telling him what to do that he falls back into that behavior - but Mhok doesn't let him. he prioritizes Day's needs and desires, even if it's something as little as finding a book, without being asked.
THE LAST PAGE IS MISSING.
(because one can't see his future and the other can't see in the future, but also because they'll make their own ending, they'll face that when they get there, but they'll do it together -- what if i lost my shit completely of it?)
when Mhok leaves Day to get him a drink the camera is focused on Day and the clear warring emotions on his face but if you look in the background Mhok hesitates, he stops and turns a few times to look at day. he's reluctant to leave him and worried. Mhok worries so much but it's always so understated or in the background, covered by the emotions of others he values above himself. (or overlooked because of 'what type of person he is')
while its anxiety inducing i do enjoy this regression of behavior because adapting to a new life is hard. you will regress, you will stumble, you will fall into old habits or sometimes old fears will return. its what you do after that that is important. the one thing i hope doesn't happen is i hope this doesn't cause a rift with Porjai. i think Mhok needs her right now, maybe not forever, but definitely right now.
HE PUT ON THE FUCKING SHIRT. THE FUCKING SHIRT DAY COULD SEE FROM MARS. OH MY GOD. i know this doesn't need to be commented on, i know it's obvious, but FUUUUCK.
Day's mom trying to weaponize Mhok's past and Mhok taking the ammunition from her hands and telling Day himself. the acceptance of the past and the determination to move on and grow from it. Day's refusal to let the past repeat itself with a new caretaker. whoo boy.
and again Day wants to see Mhok, because even bruised and battered Mhok is worth seeing.
if the last episode ends with "sweet dreams/good night" i will be burying myself alive, thanks.
tagging @benkaaoi and @callipigio as requested (if you want to be added to my last twilight meta tag list just let me know!)
THE PINK SHIRT RUINING HIS BAD BOY IMAGE BECAUSE IT IS BEING RUINED. HE'S MOVING ON, HE'S GROWING, HE'S BECOMING A NEW PERSON. FUCK OFF.
i'm so so sorry this was so long, every episode makes me feel more and more things and makes me analyze shit more and more.

do you have prey link hc's i am BEGGING spare vore
YEAH here you go! These are mostly gonna be B0TW and T0TK Link since that's who I talk about most on here, but if you want any other version I'd be happy to do that too. Okay so it might actually take Link a second to warm up to being eaten in a friendly manner if I'm being honest because there are. SO many monsters that would love to make him into a proper meal so in his mind it's a bad thing. At least...until it's very firmly established as something affectionate and kind of silly a few of his friends can do. Then once he warms up to it he's an absolute menace. Cannot ever sit still in someone's insides and I mean he absolutely CAN'T. It's impossible he's just too fidgety and can't keep his hands to himself to save his life. That I feel like is true of every Link, but especially our lovely B0TW/T0TK gremlin boy because look at him. Even his idle animations show him constantly stretching, bouncing, and shaking his little hands, so staying still in a stomach really isn't an option. Unless he falls asleep of course which is, a very big probability. Especially if he's bored. Something I think might be a little funny is how easy it would be to startle him by just, grabbing him up. For a normally rather stoic hero it seems very easy to catch him off guard in the games, and I feel like that would very much apply to any time a friend decided to grab him for a snack, even if they hadn't meant to scare him. He'll make the silliest shocked little face before he realizes what happened and chills out. The biggest culprits of just snatching him would probably be Si.don and Dar.uk because, well look at them they're huge.
For Sid.on it's more of an affectionate Z0ra thing I think. It feels like something they would use to transport very young Z0ra still in their tadpole stage if they had to and a lot of fish use mouth brooding anyways to care for their eggs, so it stands to reason that eating someone might be a fairly understood and acceptable thing. Especially looking at all the stuff that happened with Jabu Ja.bu in previous games. Sooo Sid.on has a tendency to eat Link as a way of catching up with his friend after going a while without seeing him, and honestly Link never really minds it. His insides are soft and make a great bed, and they're warm too, so Link honestly just wishes he was given more of a warning sometimes before getting gulped lmao. Dar.uk tho...he was awful about snatching Link up because he thought it was a bit funny. Gor.on eat pretty much exclusively rocks and minerals, so it's possible they might be completely incapable of processing something like a Hyli.an, especially one that's still alive and kicking. Combine that with how much bigger Dar.uk was than Link and....yeah there was really no reason for him not to eat his tiny friend every once in a while lol. Link was pretty fussy about it because he was NEVER given a warning and always grabbed at an inconvenient time, but he never was genuinely mad about it either. Just playfully annoyed and incredibly wiggly. I feel like Link also gets eaten by various monsters he fights like Hinox, Molduga, and other things like that, but it's waaayyyyyy less friendly or fun for either party

Do you have Nightwolf age regressor headcanons too? I loved your Caregiver one and would be sooo curious to see the flip side of the coin! Poor baby has trauma in his lore that makes him seem so lil’ and precious! 😭❤️
I don't know much about his lore, but if you'd like more hcs focused on what he's been through, I can make that post!!! :D These are just some Regression Nightwolf hcs that I have for him but I'd love to do more if you'd like focusing more on what he's been through!!
Tumblr media
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
Regressor Nightwolf Hcs
🐺 Regresses to about 3-5
🐺 Also had a middlespace headspace of about 11/12
🐺 (^ My personal hc is that he had a HUGE emo/metal phase in middle school and so when he regresses, he becomes a moody 12 year old that knows everything)
🐺 Fujin thinks this headspace is adorable and it makes Nightwolf so pouty because psh, come on! He isn't some baby! >:/
🐺 Has this very certain jacket he wears when hes in that headspace and very specific makeup (cried the ONE time Fujin laughed, Fujin felt so terrible and offered to let himself get decked in emo just to make up for it)
🐺 Fujin normally watches him when he's small
🐺 Very rarely has a babysitter but if he did, it'd probably be his Momma or Auntie (they're all incredibly close and very supportive)
🐺 Very energetic toddler
🐺 I'm not exactly sure how his green spirit animals work (i don't have him as a playable character yet), but if he can summon them at will, this man's cuddling the bear
🐺 Has little toys he's made for himself, like a set of blocks and a wooden toy boat
🐺 Adores his hair brushed but you've gotta ask and you need to be close to him!!
🐺 Can and Will try to play with his ax (you gotta tell him it's not safe and he'll normally let it go)
🐺 Nature baby 100% of the way
🐺 Likes going on little walks and giving you pinecone or rocks he found cool
🐺 (^ You better keep them, he might cry if you try to get rid of them)
🐺 Likes sitting outside and just rumbling and tumbling in the grass
🐺 Adores bath time!!!
🐺 Will splash everywhere if he still has energy though
🐺 But if it's bathtime, he's normally pretty tuckered and mellowed out
🐺 Likes naptime on certain days, like when he's feeling sleepy
🐺 But will dodge it like a plague if he still wants to run around and have fun
🐺 Very good on the rules, normally always sticks to them
🐺 But does have hissy fits, especially if he has to go inside and doesn't wanna
🐺 Pouting, stomping, laying on the ground, he doesn't wanna go inside just yet!! >:(
🐺 If you let him throw his little hissy fit he'll eventually sit up and look at you like ‘🥺’ because now he thinks he's in trouble and doesn't wanna get punished
🐺 Just remind him that just because he lashed out doesn't make him naughty, and that he's a very good boy
🐺 If he's still a bit stubborn about going inside, remind him of bathtime and how cozy naptime is and that usually does the trick
🐺 If you don't like outside? He'll get really pouty, but won't force you to come cuddle him in the grass
🐺 Just watch him from the window, he should he okay
🐺 Or plan some fun arts and crafts inside, he likes those
🐺 Cuddles and storytime work too, n
🐺 I could see him asking a million and one questions about everything and anything
🐺 Not cause he wants to bug you, but because he likes to learn :3
🐺 Ugh, I could totally see him as that one kid that will bring bugs inside the house cause ‘They're cold!! 🥺’
🐺 If you like bugs, that's great!! You two get to make the bug feel very comfy until it has to go back outside
🐺 If you don't, he might pout a bit but is rather understanding
🐺 He'd rather make you happy than a bug, plus the bug can hurry itself ungrounded so he'll be okay in the end
🐺 Wants to help out with everything you do but is also too small to do anything and he'll watch over your shoulder and give advice
🐺 The advice is either surprisingly good or really really childish
🐺 ‘Can we add extra salt?’ The food taste better already
🐺 ‘Can we put in glitter to make it shiny?’ Erm, no kiddo, we gotta make sure it's still edible
🐺 Favorite little nicknames are Kidda, Bub, ‘Hun, Moony, Sunshine, Bug, Baby Bear
🐺 But any nickname will make him squirm happily and bkush
🐺 I'm not saying anything, but he'd make you a mud pie like Max from Max and Ruby and be SO proud of it!!
🐺 Just tell him it looks amazing!! But don't throw it out until he's big because he'll have the most destroyed face watching you attempt it throw it out
🐺 Doesn't watch many cartoons, but if you want him to stay inside so that his bath can fill or dinner will be ready in a few minutes, he'll watch some shows
🐺 Probably also a Studio Ghibli fan
🐺 (^ I'm projecting, his favorite movie is Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind)
🐺 If he regresses because of big negative feelings or scary, scary thoughts, he'll run to you and hide in your arms
🐺 He knows he's a pretty buff dude, but just letting him hurry his head in your shoulder while you scratch his scalp and rub his back really helps him
🐺 If he starts crying, kids his forehead and rock him gently
🐺 Man's been through a ton, he just wants someone there to be there and love him
🐺 Learnt of age regression through Fujin when he came to Fujin about his memories as a reverant and how he didn't know how to handle them
🐺 Maybe a wolf regressor but I dunno
🐺 I know one of his victories has him howling at the moon, so he'll do that and then giggle when you cross his arms
🐺 Not a chewer or a biter, but will sometimes knaw your arm or hand out of love, almost like he's giving you a kiss
🐺 (^ Will do this in his little headpace too, not just wolf)
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
I love Nightwolf, he's so Dad but even Dad's deserve a break (and I really need to buy MK11 Aftermath)
[Also I did get your second ask, and don't worry!! You asked anymousely!!]

happy sigh... seeing my womanhood as just being a body type, being a female human the way that there's female dogs and female rats etc, has been unbelievably healing and slowly disintegrated my dysphoria. i'm just an animal who happened to be born afab. it says absolutely *NOTHING* about me, literally nothing, it's 100% neutral. anyone trying to link any personality trait or gender role or dumb stereotype to my sex/agab is sexist as fuck and i can laugh it off now. i cannot change it and that's actually okay w me now bc i don't associate it w bad things anymore. body neutrality reallyyy helped me. finding other afab people who aligned with their sex and saw it as a neutral biological fact literally saved my mental health
learning about afab/amab dynamics not just in general society but also trans circles that i frequented heavily also explained and validated everything i've gone through. i started feeling sympathy for myself instead of contempt. i held my own boobs and apologized to them for seeing them as only for babies or as ugly in masculine clothing (bc i was visibly masc and afab) or as objects that were meant for male consumption and for assuming i had no agency in that whatsoever. but now i know i can fight back. i know i can join radical feminism and fight to normalize bodies like mine and calling out creepy bullshit, making men feel self-conscious of their deviant thoughts and behaviors, nipping this shit in the bud in discussions abt raising boys, learning why men and transfems react certain ways, about afab vs amab socialization and how it affects everyone long-term... there's just suddenly so much i can do about my situation!!! so much knowledge to learn!! it's soooo empowering
i finally can take an active part in feminism instead of weak pop feminism that tiptoes around afab-specific oppression by fear of being a transphobe. i have trans friends, trans ppl deserve freedom and basic human rights, but i also believe in afab rights, and afab boundaries. i want to research more, to discuss things more, and just figure out how to make all of that coexist peacefully instead of constant fights between marginalized groups. anyway. radfeminism has been incredibly helpful in my healing journey and studying it has been sooo fulfilling already. i deeply appreciate my time here, and while i don't agree with everything all the time, and handle transness differently than terfs, i also love researching different radfem opinions and beliefs. it helps me finally figure out my own! i feel like i'm actually thinking for myself now instead of just going with whatever the majority says! in here i can have actual respectful debates instead of only knee-jerk harassment from activists

Anything for you <3
🤧🤝👃😞 for (aged up) Y/uta Thanks to the wonderful @ithadtobesneezing for the ask~
~~~~~
🤧: What does their sneeze sound like? (Description, spelling, or both!)
I deeply subscribe to your absolutely breathtaking hc that they are breathy, vocal, whiny, and desperate. Something along the lines of "hhYIEShhhihh-! hk'eHDjzSHhhuh-! ehiHZShh'iee-! yiESHhzhiehh-!"
🤝: Do they like to be taken care of when they’re not feeling well? Or do they hate it when people fuss over them? If they do, what’s their favorite thing about being taken care of? If not, why don’t they like being taken care of? How bad would they have to be before they’d let anyone take care of them in any capacity?
Somehow.. both? It makes him feel so good to be cared for, comforted, and if it's someone he trusts, he'll absolutely melt into their embrace. Buutt... he's also so nervous about asking for it, about being a burden, so even when they offer care, he's hesitant to accept it. Even if he's deeply unwell.
He prefers to act like he's okay, even when he's not, unless it's someone who's earned his trust, and showed him it's okay to ask for what he needs. In those cases, he craves hugs so much. Cuddling too, just anything where they're embracing him and he gets to snuggle into their chest and just be held <3 (also a few times people cooked his favourite meals for him and he cried <3)
👃: In general, how sensitive is their nose? Can something like a certain flower or smell make them sneeze even if they’re not allergic to it? Do they sneeze a lot on average, or not very much? Does their nose twitch a lot, or barely ever at all?
Not that sensitive to smells, but incredibly sensitive to touch. Strong scents won't normally make him itchy, let alone sneeze, but if you even so much as brush his nose with anything.... well you'll get a reaction~
On average he's not a super sneezy person, but given the sensitivity issue, mixed with some allergies and getting sick a lot (poor lil guy <3) it's not unusual to hear around 8 per week. (Not a ton, but if he's sick or having a reaction, you'll definitely get more)
His nose is definitely twitchy, whether by itself, or him choosing to scrunch it. He prefers to keep hands off when he can, since it's so quick to get irritated at touch, even his own. Sooo, more often then not he'll attempt to just wiggle it around to keep it from getting too itchy.
😔: What are their “tells” when they’re not feeling their best? Do they sleep more or less? Do they become easily irritated, aggressive, snap at little things? Or do they withdraw and become quieter, cry at the drop of a hat, stay in the background? What’s the one surefire way that one of their loved ones would be able to tell that they’re sick?
One tell is the bags under his eyes basically tripling. He has some trouble sleeping at the best of times, and when he's sick it always gets worse. Him yawning a lot more is also a tell, as well as finding him wandering aimlessly as if in a daze.
When he's unwell, he does get irritated more easily, but only with himself </3. Why am I sick, why can't I sleep, I'm bothering everyone, etc. Because of this he usually gets a bit more withdrawn, afraid of annoying people. You'll notice his attitude towards himself switch to an even harsher tone.
He's also one of the people who gets emotional quickly anyways, and when he's unwell, or fevered, it's so much more intense for him. It's not unusual to catch him swiping a few tears away, a glare aimed towards the floor that you can tell is meant to be aimed at himself.
Surefire way for loved ones to tell he's sick is the uneven quality of his voice. Not that it's harsher, or deeper, but between his throat, and chest, and the emotional state, you'll find his tone dropped to almost a whisper, barely able to be heard.

A Letter to the Me I Was Four Years Ago Today
Hey Dakota,
Or, perhaps, I should address you as *****. I don't think we were Dakota quite yet.
In a few weeks, your whole life is gonna change. Okay, maybe a bit hyperbolic compared to the situations other people are also about to experience. But, take your time and enjoy today.
Its leap day, an extra day to do something, so take advantage of this supposedly "extra day of magic." I know you worked hard to get your homework under control so we could see the new Magic Happens parade on its opening weekend.
I remember the joy of getting to text our good friend "Happy birthday" on their actual birthday and not figure out if I should text them on the 28th or the 1st. The anticipation of waiting in a crowd of people to see this new parade, which could possibly run for the next decade like its predecessor. And sharing the specialty sundae at Gibson Girl and some of the dishes at this year's Food and Wine Festival with Dad. That chicken in a waffle taco was so good.
Smile and take your mind off of the pile of work you know you still have waiting at home, the APs you should be studying for, not to mention your upcoming SAT. That Coco float is more beautiful than anything you could have imagined and the Moana float is just beautiful.
You don't know it, but this will be your last trip to Disneyland as an annual passholder, or really your last normal day off for a while. In two weeks the world's gonna shut down, and no amount of optimism we try to muster will keep that initial two weeks as two weeks. But before that, take my advice, you should definitely apply to that Life is Strange fanzine you saw on Twitter. Then, you'll finally know who Dakota is. And who knows what else you may discover on this path.
Also, what took you so long to start writing for you? I know junior year of high school is not known for students having a lot any free time, but if this is what you wanna do for the rest of your life, you gotta start sooner than later. And hey, call me a hypocrite, I know I'm still trying to find a good work/life balance. But we're getting to use our free time in a way that makes us happy and productive. Just keep writing.
Over the next four, really two, years, you're gonna lose contact with a lot of friends. But the two who you do stay in contact with, let's just say you wouldn't wanna be (occasionally) texting with anyone else. They are gonna make you feel safe to be yourself and introduce you to some future obsessions. One of them will be the inspiration for the first piece you write truly for you and for fun. And they're gonna be so supportive when you tell them about what you've been up to/asking their help for.
There's gonna be a lot of rough nights and disappointments before you graduate. And the decision of what to do about college, let those tears fall. There's no need to keep holding those emotions in. It's a tough choice and while I'm still in the middle of it, who's to say I made the right decision. But, I can tell you this, you are gonna be so much happier when you start college. Maybe it's not the experience your sibling had or you dreamed of, but you are gonna fall in love with a whole new city with so much to do (and so little time!). And not to be narcissistic, but I know how proud you would be to see all the things I've done so far in my coursework.
Keep listening to that voice telling you to go for it. You're gonna start writing for some of your favorite fandoms (including ones that you'll meet down the line - I'm so excited for you to watch BD and TS for the first time). Then you're gonna join Tumblr, then AO3, and who knows what's next. Some incredibly sweet people will interact with the things you made (yes, you!) and you'll be introduced to so many talented writers and artists on here! Literally, every day I come across multiple fanarts and fics that I can't help but stare at cause they are sooo good!
I know I skipped over a lot of exciting (and not so exciting) things, but that's for you to discover and enjoy in the moment. Enjoy this moment of happiness, and don't let yourself get too consumed with all the things out of your control. I think the parade is just about to start over at It's a Small World. Take care. We'll meet again soon.
Love,
Dakota Wren 💜

I am losing my mind (again) about the fic when the world has dealt its cards. bravo.
thank you for making me feel ✨BUTTERFLIES✨, wow!!
I personally have been feeling a lot of anxiety preparing for season 2, and seriously this was like a gift to me as I have often pondered just posted "I have so much anxiety about this someone please console me" - this fic did just that. Because I remembered that no matter what happens, the dumb angel and not angel love each other :) It'll be fiiine.
this is the lovely gorgeous writing that made my heart unwind, firstly (this isn't an exact quote I'm sorry) "who was it that pleased the angel so?" sooo sweet
and gosh secondly...
As they watched, the angel new to Earth could feel what sparked between them, brighter to their senses than everyone around them, shining, splendid, strong, and beautiful. They felt its resonance within them, knew it as they knew their very essence.
Love.
Enormous love, ancient, potent, and very well established. Together, they were glorious, their heads so near to one another, the halo of bright curls tilted towards a burning crown of fire. Here were two beings alike, but not alike, complementing each other. There was strength there, and endurance, fidelity and loyalty. Whatever brought the interloper here this damp and chilly night, it would be better faced with these two on their side.
And the scene with their hands on the umbrella.... oh my gooooshh!!!! 😭 It's so innocent and sweet but it's so meaningful and precise and ohhh the part where Crowley is feeling so protective. Seriously on my "wishes and predictions" twt acc I wanted the new angel to feel the love between them and this just completely filled that part of my heart up to the brim for me. Thank you soooo much. I know of course this wasn't written *for* me, but isn't it such a lovely thing when a fic fits with your heart so well that it feels that way??
You are a talented writer and I'm so happy I follow u on tumblr! Lol! I'm like half star struck! 🤓💜
Okay back to being Super Normal Totally about the Michael sheen and David tennant-looking creatures... thank you for reminding me of your sweet fix it literally it cured my season 2 anxiety that has been keeping me up at night ❤️ sending u hopes for a fanatic day and a warm feeling like I had reading when the world has dealt its cards
sry this is a rambling nutso mess u don't have to post this LOL I am maybe embarrassing sorry ❤️❤️ I don't think this properly conveyed the many layers of your writing but I hope you Feel The Vibes
Gosh, this was the sweetest message to receive today! Thank you so much @rosetylahcrowleyinthetardis that is incredibly kind of you! I suspect I am wrong about just about everything here, but I absolutely love the idea that the angel will feel the love between Aziraphale and Crowley. Maybe Muriel will too, that would be incredibly cute. Thank you for reading my story and for getting in touch! ❤️

sooo, english isn't my 1st language and this is my 1st time making an ask so i'm nervous, but is it okay if i claim this emoji 🌻?
so, my thoughts (i have many) after reading about lando's oral fixation and lactation kink i couldn't help but think of george, specially little!george. i think he's just a sensitive baby who wants cuddles and sucking on things, and if it's your chest then you happily oblige
he tends to cuddle a lot and just rest his head on your chest, and when he's soft and relaxed and maybe even sleepy he starts to suck on your shirt and drooling all over it. so naturally, you ask him if he wants to suck on your chest but he's so deep in his little space that he doesn't respond directly, just sucks harder on your shirt!
you decide to take your shirt off so he can just suck on your nipples like the baby he is! and he absolutely loves it. you keep strocking his hair and rubbing his back over and over until he falls sleep on your chest
i think it would become a routine between both of you, just a nice little thing when little!george wants to fall sleep
Firstly, of course you can have that emoji! I'll add to the claimed list and tag this post with it. Secondly, I love this so much it's so fucking cute!! This is an utterly incredible first ask, and no worries about English not being your first language it's not mine either :))
I think maybe in his normal headspace, George loves napping with his head on your chest cause it's just so comfy? And of course you love it too because you love when George is happy and soft in your arms.
Little!George absolutely has the same love for your breasts, but he cant articulate it? Even on the best of days, he can only babble in little space, occasionally being able to say a word or two if you really need him to.
But whenever he feels the desire to suck on you, it's always because he wants a little more comfort? He's a needy little boy and he often just needs to suckle on you to calm down and feel safe. Except he doesnt know how to express that because he's far too little for words.
And it can get quite distressing poor Georgie, because he knows exactly what he wants but he doesnt know how to tell you! He so badly wants the extra comfort but he doesnt know if he can and by the time he's back in his normal headspace, he doesnt even remember it until he regresses again.
One day, once you've fed him and put new clothes on him and have him cuddled against you, he's just so tired and comfy and he doesnt even think twice about sucking on your shirt. He wants to suck his thumb, but that would require him to move his arms and both of his arms are wrapped tightly around you and obviously he can't move them.
So he just starts sucking on your shirt, directly over your nipple. The feeling surprises you, because you have never felt anything like it.
But then you look down and you're greeted by such a sweet sight, little!George sucking on your shirt and looking up at you, clinging to you a he does and looking so pleased with himself.
You ask him if he wants you to take your shirt off so he can suck on your nipple properly, but obviously he can't respond to you because he's far too small for that. Instead, he just sucks harder on your chest and you understand what that means.
He whines and cries when you have to push him off you to remove your shirt, because he doesnt understand? All he knows is that he felt so safe sucking on your shirt and then you pushed him away! Why did you push him away? He's your little boy, you can't push him away.
But then you take your shirt off and pull him back towards you, pushing his head down to your chest and he instantly starts suckling on your breast. He relaxes even more then, so happy for the skin on skin and to not have the tough feeling of your shirt covering your breasts.
He falls asleep very quickly, and after that he regularly wants it.
(His favourite is when he can duck his head under your shirt to suckle on you because he feels even safer that way)

i am for once very happy they are addressing the fact ben still has insecurities over the two timing situation because THAT’S HARD especially for someone like ben that constantly feels like he is always being left behind. In season 3, ben came to terms with the idea of just being friends with devi so the boink might have put his defenses up again. i get it. i think he needs to talk when he is ready to talk. i am team devi in that whole disclosure because i think her being upset feels justified this time but i won’t totally shut down ben for this because it makes sense that he feels like that. and devi running out after the boink certainty didn’t help.
if ben and devi are going to get together. i need that whole cheating situation to be addressed because i don’t like when writers ignore situations like these as if they aren’t impactful, hurtful and can complicate relationships.
Honestly I think Never Have I Ever has done an excellent job of showing the trauma and impact of Devi's cheating, on both on Devi and Ben's end, and I'm sure they will have a really long, honest conversation about it in the future because it has severely impacted the future of a relationship they both really value. I'm glad they're exploring Ben's reaction and in a lot of ways he's reacted like a normal teenage boy who doesn't know how to act around the girl he loves, but I take issue with the fact that from what I've heard (again disclaimer here, I have not seen the episode just heard summaries/spoilers so it could absolutely play out better on screen) I do think that he owed her at least one conversation after having sex and it was wrong to deny her of that. I will say this given that I am personally am an anxious attachment girlie, sex/sexual acts make me incredibly attached to people, and I don't understand avoidant attachment/avoiding confrontations about very deep, personal subjects when they're deeply, deeply, deeply affecting the other person (which having sex with Ben did to Devi) I think it's okay to say "Hey I need some time to process this and I'll talk with you when I'm ready" but I know Ben doesn't have the language or emotional capacity to convey that yet. And apparently he was worried about the sex being bad which is honestly very relatable and realistic but again, I don't think that excuses him ignoring her. I just don't think you should just assume to give people time to talk about things on their own time UNLESS they clearly state they need that, because then you're waiting around for a person/situation that may just never come to fruition. And also Devi gave him an opportunity to talk and he didn't want to and sooo many things could have been solved if they just talked it out that one time.
That's why I personally just have a hard time buying this situation right now/am having a hard time seeing how I personally can forgive Ben again and feel secure on their JOURNEY to endgame (because I know they will be endgame) I actually have no doubt the cheating situation will be addressed because Jaren and Maitreyi said there would be a lot of difficult conversations between their characters and they've done a great job with it so far except to me this really just feels like drama for the sake of drama and not having them get together until the very end

OKAY OKAY GET READY FOR A LONG ASK
THIS IS ASTRAL!! THIS IS HER DESIGN SO FAR, BUT I'LL PROBABLY REDRAW IT AND TWEAK SOME THINGS SOME TIME IN THE FUTURE. (got lazy and didn't shade, mb)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
SHE'S HALF IMP/DEMON OR WHATEVER AND HALF HUMAN! I HOPE YOU LIKE HER!
Astral always had an interest in dark magic and the twisted minds behind it.
Imps were typically stereotyped and shunned while she was growing up, so she never really head a drive to stay away from lesser accepted magic.
She mingled among the darker side, learning, until one day she unexpectedly made a breakthrough in any aspect of time magic (you can choose if you'd like!) while messing around; a form of magic rarely practiced and preformed with an incredible amount of precaution due to the dangerous capabilities of it. Astral quickly became high ranking in the community and published a few powerful studies after this despite her mild age gap between her (now) peers. She had been lucky to "rise to power" at a time when higher-ups were getting a little younger.
Originally, she was a jack of all trades, but began to hone in on certain crafts and become generally skillful. Astral was generally revered (apart from critisism on her former immaturity and how she "got too powerful too early" because she wasn't very skilled yet), and had amazing access to everything that she wanted to learn thanks to her position in the community.
However, she realised later on that she did not have insight into normal magic's culture. Astral never really showed face in the normal magic communities until around when WxS started getting well-known. She needed to face society to properly reach the level of her peers, but regardless, she took it more like a fun, new adventure.
Because of her connections, some prestiged magicians that knew the witch from the dark magic scene and took her in, allowing her into high-ranking events to learn the culture.
A few keen eyes grew suspicious at first, as Astral had been very bashful about her integration. She had a substantial amount of knowledge, yes, but no known studies despite being at these gatherings.
Well, that's the first time her breakthrough came in handy. Someone was saved from a wrench in time due to her research, and felt indebted to her. Before they were lost for a few years, they meant to publish their studies on necromancy (the accepted, normal practices of it), but heard of Astral's escapades and felt they needed to help her.
So, now Astral is a mid-ranking normal, high-ranking dark magician that has hosted many influential dark magic experiments, being interested in the psychology of the twisted people behind the less ethical region of dark magic, and introducing more effective and ethical methods. Can't say she's the most moral herself though.
(I'll send how she's connected to the RPG AU in my next ask! I haven't fully thought it out yet and I'm a little busy, so I don't know how long that'll be.. but thx sm for letting me ramble!)
Little witchy girl!!! Awww sooo cute
Tumblr media
For the time magic part, maybe a sort of possibility roulette? Minor enough in time magic as a whole but still decent enough to make an impact as even Rui isn't completely sure how he managed to reset a whole timeline just yet XD. She can sort of get the future possibilities people can take and influence them and as she gets upgraded has a higher chance for the influence to work in a possibility she wants
The WxS side quest possibilities as they meet her even though to her, she's on her own major quest! WxS are certainly not ones to shy away from other communities they think could need help.... or a big shake up
I'll be eagerly awaiting more :D

TELL ME ABT ROCHE LIMIT LIKE WHATS GOIN ON WHOS OUR CAST I'm so curious 👁👁
Teeheee thank you for the ask !!!!!!!!!!
Roche Limit follows a (gay) (trans) guy named Halcyon in what is vaguely-not-vaguely the 1980s. His mental health state is horrible, he's struggling financially, he's recently dropped out of college and broken up with his boyfriend Abby (who by the way is his roommate), he's picking up very unhealthy habits (smoking and drinking. Oops!). The plot sets off when he reunites with his ex boyfriend Gabriel, who tasks him with killing an angel in exchange for ????. For Reasons. So Halcyon runs away to California with Gabriel to do that. Terrible decision. Soooo anyway he spectacularly fails at killing the angel and it possesses him ! His blood is like a pale colour and it glows now. And it's kind of a drug if consumed. Also his blood vessels glow. His eyes glow in the dark too. AND he's in constant pain because of the angel. Literally everyone wants to harm him. And he has to get an exorcism before someone succeeds in doing so. He's literally dissociating throughout the entire novella(?). Fun! The angel is a cutie btw. Literally the only valid character.
The main cast consists of Halcyon, Abby, Gabriel, the angel and two other characters I don't really know anything about (except that one of them is kind of literally Joan of Arc). A thing very much worth mentioning is that I've had Abby and Halcyon for like. Almost three years. But I technically abandoned them over a year ago and I've missed them sm and I'm so so happy to finally be writing in Halcyon's POV again.
Halcyon is my most special horrid pathetic little wet rat of a man. He's really cynical and bitter and angry at the world. He's incredibly self destructive and miserable and full of self loathing. Whenever someone tries to help him he pushes then away and becomes 10 times worse (relatable). He thinks he's SOOO fucked up but he's actually just a little guy. Also he's a punk and an artist. Also also he's half Korean. And he is EVERYTHING to me and I want to put him in my mouth. As you can see I am very normal about him.
Abby is my other pathetic little man. He's really gentle and romantic and soft, but like. He's also kind of manipulative and kind of shitty???? But it's okay because he too is everything to me and I adore him. He's also really self destructive but in different ways. Anyway, he really cares about Halcyon and REALLY tries to help him in every possible way but snaps under the stress that that causes him and ends up hurting Halcyon instead. He's bi and trans and his spirit animal would be a sewer rat wearing a cute little coat. I have like, several other ideas and WIPs in his POV because he fascinates me.
Gabriel is my slutty little bitch !!!!!!!!! I actually don't know much about him *yet* but what I do know is that he never shows any emotion other than Smirking Flirty Asshole and he wears sunglasses and suits even when he Really does not need to. Whore behaviour. He's also like. Really charismatic. And gay. And um . well, attractive. And very protective of the few people he actually cares about. I love him. If I met him irl I'd punch him in the face.
The little angel guy is just. A darling. It's very confused about everything that's happening and knows it's hurting Halcyon and Does Not Want to hurt him. So it tries to comfort him and protect him !!!!!!!! It is everything to me !!!! I say that a lot .
I could talk about these fucked up little guys forever but this post would be longer than War And Peace so we're ending it there <3 thanks for asking, again!!

character info sheet.
Name. Aza/thoth
Name meaning. Blind idiot god, nuclear chaos, mindless dreamer, the deep dark et cetra
Alias.( ses ). see above, other fun names people have come up with : parasite, darling (that does turn up a lot somehow lmao), Azzy, demonic hitchhiker, little friend. Really. people are so much friendlier these days!
two pictures you like of your character.
okay, this one is a BIG one, since it pretty much started this entire idea.
Tumblr media
I know I shit a lot on the second movie but this scene from it is just outright pivotal on my blog. The way Sean acted this scene, that second where he seems to realize what he's doing and that it's wrong, but then something instantly changes in his body language and he strangles the kid that much harder, followed by him saying 'he made me do it, I'm sorry' - that was the moment the possession idea was born. So in a way, that is a picture of the entity that's messing Collingwood and Lance right up.
Tumblr media
Second one is not really a picture, but a very flashy video. The first minute of Clark's Winter Linn video has always been the visual representation of what I think this thing 'looks' like. No generic tentacle monster bullshit. But a thing that constantly shifts and changes in 'patterns' that don't make an real coherent sense. But picture that on a scale of a freaking galaxy.
three headcanons you never told anyone.
once again, I feel like I've shared sooo many headcanons already lmao
My version of it isn't your typical muhahaha evil. Hell, at times, it might even do something good, like getting rid of its own cult and such. I play entirely into the concept that it is chaos at its most basic and pure and entirely its own thing, doesn't adhere to any religious or natural law or black and white mentality, really. It isn't even that -smart- and cunning either. Don't get me wrong. It'll make your head spin with its sudden shifts in moods and ideas. It is outright scary how utterly unpredictable it is. It is disastrously flipping gi-normous with incredible power. If it bothered to gain all of them back and develop its full potential and everything that its cult wants, I'm talking universe ending OP type of power and knowledge. But the fun part is that it has no interest in that just yet, if ever. Frankly, it finds almighty power and omnipotence quite fucking boring and utterly predictable. All it cares about is mindless consuming and observing and manipulating. It will kill people and destroy things if it feels like it. But given its psychotic obsessions and the likes, it actually is fairly chill for the most part. Truth be told, it kinda enjoys snacking on powerful villians and evil peops/supernaturals more than your run at the mill normal human 9-5ers, no matter how many of them are really out there. Why go for bulk fast food when you can enjoy a lil well done gourmet diner you get handed in a very secret shady celebrity restaurant?
Once again cannot overstate enough how freaking obsessed this thing is with Lance. Jealous and clingy to the absolute fucking max. I go back and forth on how it'll handle his eventual death. Sometimes I like to think that it 'cares' about him so much it might just let him pass naturally eventually, really let him go so he can be at peace one day. But more and more, I come to the conclusion that it won't. It eventually will try to find a way to literally keep him forever. I'm talking, he gets taken out by a bullet or something, it'll bring him back. And it'll keep bring him back over and over again until there's nothing left to be brought back. That, or it'll go the vampire route with him in the verses I have for that. Meaning that it'll force some vamp to turn him for it so he'll be immortal and stay with it forever.
I just find it generally very interesting how they tick. I make it a big point that this possession isn't forceful or like your typical uncomfortable imprisoned in your own body type of deal. Eventually, it's almost elegant and respectful in a few ways, and obv very tight regardless. It is talking to him all the time. Comments on everything, constantly suggests things or makes fun of them. But it will respect his autonomy and privacy many times as well if he wants for it to be so. Eventually, he'll reluctantly turn it into a two way street and start talking to it a lot more as well, even ask it for its take on things since it knowing literally every last thing he does with the addition of its 'outside' perspectives can paint a pretty fucking accurate and scary picture. That's the point where the lines start blurring and they distort each other. In a way, it's scary how natural it all seems and how well this dance of theirs is choreographed. For the most part, it's because it's genuinely fascinated by the way he ticks and thinks, and because he produces so many struggles and doubts and emotions all by himself. It just has to lean back and enjoy the show. Or he gets to lean back and let it handle the shitty/risky situations without having to fear for his life anymore.
three things your character likes to do in their free time.
people watching 2. talking to people 3. reading. people's minds and the likes. or books. maybe a diary or two.
three people your character loves.
THE BOY
that's it. there are no three people.
two things your character regrets.
1. not stopping the lobotomy. Don't get it wrong, that level of fear and insanity was one of the biggest feasts to date. But the thing is - now that it's with him and ever so obsessed, no matter how much of a constant and easy food supply his trauma from that really is - it doesn't want as much of a scratch on him. It doesn't want him in physical pain. And if you ever get it started on the fact that he almost died on that table and that they almost ruined everything with that. If it wasn't for the fact that that attack and ritual was what made the possession possible, what made him able to host it, then it would absolutely undo that one.
2. Any time it's decided to let him talk to someone for longer than necessary, and where that results in him caring about those people, those caring about him, and them putting doubts in his head about his relationship with it. It's constantly and awkwardly trying to find the right balance between making him happy and getting him to like it more because of that, and keeping him from being too happy and interested in other people than itself.
three phobia's your character has.
losing the boy
that's it. Other than that it eats fear for fucking breakfast.
