i hope this isn't blasphemy but imagine a Genesis!Dreammare AU? With Night being the one to eat the apple (Eve) and Dream following him (Adam)— maybe Nim could be the version of god?

OK more Viking AU lore while it's hot—
Horror is the head of the tribe, Nightmare is a kind of a spiritual leader (since they're pagans), Cross and Dream are ordinary warriors (Cross was a refugee before being accepted into the tribe). Here we go—
Dream eavesdrops on a conversation about a conspiracy against Horror. He goes right to his brother and asks him to warn the leader, as Nightmare is the one he would listen to.
The next day, Horror, in a rage, publicly challenges Cross to a fight: "I sheltered you, and you dared to rebel against me?!" Cross denies everything in bewilderment and swears his allegiance to the leader, but Horror is determined to resolve the issue here and now.
Dream screams to his brother, but Nightmare just smiles: he exposed Cross as the instigator of the conspiracy, as he despised the refugee all the time. He knows that Cross will lose to Horror, and then he'll be kicked out or killed outright, but he just says "let the will of the gods be done". Dream is desperate but he can't intervene, as it's Horror & Cross' fight.
Meanwhile Cross tries not to strike, but only deftly dodges. In an attempt to defend himself, unwittingly, he injures Horror. First blood is considered a loss, and this is an automatic transfer of power into Cross' hands.

In ur viking au, What is Dream trying Nm from doing? Or what is nm scheming?
I think Nightmare's goal is absolute power in the tribe.
Unluckily for him, he can't physically and hierarchically be the leader, but as their priest/oracle, he can keep the leader himself under control. (Horror was quite headstrong, but now Nightmare has more opportunities on "fresh ground")
Nightmare disliked Cross from the very beginning and had already tried to get rid of him with Horror's hands, but now that Cross has lead their tribe, Nightmare wants to "get" to him through Dream (Cross' fellow soldier).
Dream feels it, but he can't go against his own brother (who's "on friendly terms with the gods"), so now Dream must choose which of them to be loyal to.

Sure thing! \(//∇//)\ And feel free to share <3

Hii!╰(*´︶`*)╯It's alright, you can find them here ☆
UPD:
Tumblr media
Aw, I can understand your indignation! (´∀`*)
In fact, there are! The thing is that good-oriented characters (as more spiritually developed and striving for higher values) are more sensitive to the harsh material world they're forced to be in and therefore weaker in confronting it ("ó_ò)
They're not so much good as "hidden villains" from the very beginning, but rather easier victims to lead astray or "be blinded" by false values later (◞‸◟)
Nightmare was good—no one is born evil, after all—and he would've been a good prophet indeed if he was raised out of love to this role and not out of being weak for any other one. He is respected now, but he will be always hungry for more power, and it will never be enough for him...
Again, there are always exceptions (for example, priest!Cross is a really good boi! <3 He was just unlucky to fall in love.)

Zu, remember the person "unable to feel love for anyone and is broken?" Yeah, worst way to introduce yourself. Anyway, there's a guy I've known for 7-8 years who was nice. I've never been able to really talk to people properly unless I know them, and he's always been patient with me (I don't know how he does it but anyway). It turns out that he was away for school, and a lot of stuff happened that made me decide to cut off all my friends at the time (it wasn't even their fault, it was just that I was trying to protect myself from anyone who could hurt me because one person had really hurt me, and I was afraid it would happen again. I also think it was because if they tried not to contact me again, it proved to me that I was nothing to them.) Anyway, I happened to see him again today and I have no idea what to do. Like he doesn't seem to mind or care, and he even asked me for my number. But the problem is that he was in love with me, and there's a good chance he still is, because he wants to ask me to lunch. And I don't know what to do, if I accept I'm playing with his feelings, but at the same time my mother tells me to stop stressing and try to be less shy. But for me, I don't think I have feelings for him. In fact, I tend to just not care about my feelings, like other people have more complicated lives or uncool things happening to them. I'm not going to bother them with how I feel, I'm not going to be selfish. I don't have the right to do that, it's not fair to others. And then seriously by doing something else, by occupying his mind, I don't think about it and I don't feel it. It's just so much easier to bury them than to try to do anything else with them.
Hii again!╰(*´︶`*)╯
The best way to be fair and grateful to him for being nice and patient to you is... to be nice to him too. It doesn't mean "playing with his feelings" or “being fake”, — it's your honest respect and kindness to him, regardless of your own feelings. Sometimes it's enough <3
You don't have to be talkative, especially since you haven't been in touch for a while, but a simple talk is what everything starts with, right? (๑•́◡•̀) (•́∀•̀๑)
It feels like you attach too much importance to a simple meeting ("ó3ó) Yes, you met again (which is good), and he even asked for your number to invite you to lunch (which is better) — but in fact, nothing Big happened, while you already think about How Not To Hurt His Feelings with your indifference _(:3 」∠)_
As Mika sings, Relax! Take it eeeasy ~(˘▽˘~) Accepting an invitation to lunch/date/etc. ≠ playing with feelings/dating/swearing your love Until Death Do Us Part. Lunch is lunch, nothing much, where you just talk & munch-munch-munch ;D
Will you really not give him a chance to have a nice hour or two together? <3
Spoiler: you don't have to have feelings for the one you have lunch with :)
Bigger spoiler: you don't have to have feelings for the one you date :))
"What?! I'm not such an insensitive scoundrel!" — You're not, cause you do care about your feelings and don't put pressure on them just because of "me and him met one/two/three times already, so we 1) date now and 2) must have feelings for each other, right??" (no, dear, NO.)
You must care about yourself and your feelings╰(*´︶`*)╯We're all humans, with complicated lives and many things happening to us (and to him as well? ówò), but it shouldn't stop us from enjoying our life and each others' company (and him from inviting you) <3
Sure, it's better not to bother every person with how (low) you feel now — that's what a close one can help you with, not the one you just want to spend some time with ε-(´∀`; )
Your mother tells the right thing! (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)★ No need to stress and be shy when nothing serious happens. It may be just one meeting, no more — and it'll be alright. It may stay platonic between you two, so you'll be just good friend — and that would be okay too. Be open to every possibility! ♪
You're never responsible for "being unfair by occupying someone's mind", it's not something you can choose and control after all (*´∇`*)
I know it may sound rude, so don't take it personally, but thinking about such things and being shy is what selfishness is, cause you make yourself stand out from the rest. It's weird to realize, but...
So trying to protect yourself by cutting off your friends and burying your feeling is not the right way to break free from them. Everything start from self-care, so that you can let your past go and make room for harmony — inside and outside you.
There are high self-esteem and healthy self-esteem. The second one is a must-have! (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) You can read good books to develop it, or contact a specialist to help you if you feel like it's not enough.
P.S. Speaking about "not caring about my feelings"... ★

Hello
What do you think about self-diagnosing?
I (gladly...maybe) didn't get too much experience in going to doctors, but the little one I have... well, it's uncomfortable? Not being supposed to self diagnose beforehand, but they assume I know every symptom that should be relevant... the guy is supposed to diagnose me, maybe asking relevant questions would help with getting enough information???
I got this one lady that wasn't even interested what is wrong, just asking how do I want to be cured. She is the doctor, and internet is telling me I'm dying, shouldn't she tell me that??? And on the other hand, after finally doing some test, she just gave some pills with instructions how to use them, that was supposed to cure the thing... nope, it only helped when pills were taken, but after it got back to being bad. And I'm just left stressing about it, cuz I don't know what were they supposed to do in the first place! Or what was wrong!
Looking back, every doctor did the same, but at least in case of flu etc., even if I didn't get told what was wrong, it just worked. But this one didn't, I'm too nervous to go to another doctor because I have no idea what to say, and am clinging to thin hope that after some time it will just fix itself, because I just need time after those pills or something (another thing I wasn't told)
Hii!╰(*´︶`*)╯
I apologize for the late response, hopefully things have been resolved or at least got better for you ♡ Even if not, no worries — excess stress was never helpful ♪(´ε` )
I believe that, in such a delicate issue of health, one should adhere to the golden mean. Not to entrust yourself entirely to doctors and rely only on them, but also not to limit yourself to self-diagnosis and self-medication. No one can know how you feel better than you, but professionals can help you to solve the problem itself.
Most doctors are really interested not so much in the person, but in finding the "right" symptoms and prescribing the right treatment (pills that usually remove symptoms but not the problem, that's why they "stop working"). We can't blame them: they have dozens of patients every day, and being sympathetic to each one is not only difficult, but also ineffective ("ó3ò)
The Internet is meant to intimidate you! ٩( ᐛ )و You know how most sites say "go and see a doctor immediately", right? Cause it is true: even if it's not something serious, they can't help you, but a real doctor can.
This is a purely individual question and it's up to you to decide (by consulting with your family as well), but I'd advise you to start with nutrition — that's what affects our body the most.
Personally, I also believe in the attitude, when you're not afraid of the disease and are confident in recovery ᕦ(òwóˇ)ᕤ
Your body is your friend, not your enemy, and you're stronger than you think. Don’t hesitate to turn to another specialist, and stay determined in this matter for yourself ☆

Hii, first how are you today? I hope you're doing good!
Even if I've just discovered your Tumblr, I'm ALREADY in LOVE! I have not yet gotten any time to read your dark cream comic... Sorry about that.
In any case, what are your tips for a beginning digital artist? Cause well... I'm in my opinion, really bad at art. (It certainly doesn't help that I'm a perfectionist.)
But I've decided to at least try to get better at it! I just didn't really know where to start? However, since that, I'm back in the Undertale fandom rabbit hole. I wanted to try get better at drawing skeletons? So yeah, any tips are welcome! (Literally, anything is welcome! From how to question existence when drawing, thought I don't know why I should know that... To art tips that helped you!)
Take good care of yourself! Stay hydrated, eat enough! And take breaks for mental health! And remember people care for you!
Hii!╰(*´︶`*)╯Yep, thank youuu <3 Hopefully you're doing good too! ☆
I'm so glad to hear it and appreciate your interest a lot! (〃ω〃) Please feel free to take all the time you need & don't hesitate to ask anything ♡
We all start small so there's nothing wrong or embarrassing about it! (ówò) Being a perfectionist may make it harder but don't let it stop you from enjoying your works and the process itself ☆
And that's great that you're determined to improve! ᕦ(òwóˇ)ᕤ Improving is possible only when you draw, so practice and practice again ♪
In fact, it does depend on what you want to improve! Bones? Study the 3D skeleton and try it in your style! (Which means, you don't have to be anatomically correct but this will help you to understand how it "works" <3) Expressions? Look for tutorials and try yours! Poses? So many references but the best one is you in the mirror! ٩( ᐛ )و
When I started, I didn't even care about anatomy, tutorials and stuff (I still don't xd) but just drew as I could & wanted; it was bad, but it was experience — and lots of fun (๑>◡<๑)
Thank you so much and good luck! (*´꒳`*) Take care and stay safe as well <3

OMG the second time in your life?? (°▽°) You must be one of the few in this world with such a willpower! :D We do did :') on Monday, they all close in Russia so maybe I'll finally stop by to say goodbye xd
You're doing amazing! (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) YAY holiday!! Where are you planning to go? *w* Btw I was finally approved for a visa— just as all the borders were closed xp
PFFF this cat has seen too much XD
Tumblr media
Awww yes! (〃ω〃) Just like in that meme: "What do you normally do when I'm gone? — Wait for you to get back" xp <3
Same here! Thank youuu (*´꒳`*) Gotta try to make some ch-ch-changes first (so the original idea with dark cream will be separate & safe) *w*
That's even a double willpower to be there and not order anything! (*゚∀゚*) It's alright and will be even healthier this way heh (ùwú)

Zuuuuuuu!!! Hi!!!!!! How have you been?!?! Omg you did the meme!!! Love how Dream is the blanket hog lol.
I've never seen this version of the lay out before actually, did you make the template yourself?
Love how they are in contact with eachother, makes it so much better aw
How's your weekend been?
How's work going?
Also how's your eye doing? Are you doing any better
Still can't get over my commission ah! Keep going back to look at it
Hii Gayfish!! <3 Awwwsome, thank you! (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)☆ YES I just found this among my drafts and decided to take a break finishing it heh, their relationship is def worth it ;3
Ah nono— I credited the original post with the template under the "read more" line (ówò) I found this one really sweet and easy to use! *^*
Thank uuu (〃ω〃) No boundaries for them anymore <3
The weekend's been busy yet grrreat! \(//∇//)\ I finally took part in that epoxy painting workshop (which I got for my birthday), it was magical ˚✧₊⁎ In a few days I can pick up the dried works and show you ♪ (Well, you can guess the colors I chose ;)
Aaand I just got back from my friend's birthday ٩( ᐛ )و♪ We had so much fun in the quest room! Have you ever been in one? It was based on Among Us, there was one imposter, and instead of killing, they were supposed to secretly switch the button while we were solving tasks. I caught them doing this in the second room (it was the birthday guy themselves heh) but decided to let them win and just looked at them every time we're alone like: :)
Work's been good as well! The other day I went to sign documents on new salary, it was raining heavily on my way but worth it xp And my eye is almost like new, thank you! <3 Only after such major incidents you begin to appreciate the details╰(*´︶`*)╯
Awww I'm really glad to hear you enjoy it! (*´꒳`*)
What about you? ♡ How's your weekend been?? How's it going with the work & drawing? *^*
UPD:
Tumblr media
Oh it's alright! (ówò) Please don't force yourself if you feel sleepy now (it is really late :')) Have a nice rest (úwù)☆
It's actually really easy! *^* The only thing is the hardener (which is mixed with the resin), it's toxic & flammable and it's better not work with it at home x)
The mixture is poured into cups and mixed with pigments (paints), then you just pour them onto wooden coasters and that's where the fun begins! ☆
You can 1) tilt it and mix the colors; 2) paint by hand with a stick; 3) blow it with a hair dryer XD Each option is beautiful & interesting in its own way (ㅅ´ ˘ `)♡
Purple is one of the four, bingo! (๑>◡<๑)★
WAIT you've been in an art club?? *0*
Ah right, escape rooms is the right name! It is worth trying *w* Ohhh I can tell you sometime about the horror escape room I've found myself in... x)
Hmm! Trapped? ☆ Sounds really similar, gotta look into this one *^*
No more indeed ;') A snow?! \(//∇//)\ YAY seems like that xp
Awww Gayfish! (ówò) That's amazing!! Did you like it there? Don't hesitate to trust your intuition ☆ I'm so happy for you, hopefully it'll turn out the best way for you ♡ Bonus for the free food xd
I feel you, I know how frightening and tiring it may be in such a large volume, but it can turn out to be even cooler, useful and interesting for you!╰(*´︶`*)╯Don't rush to choose and take your time, you know you can always change your mind (úwù)
Actually, I believe you can talk to @kotikaleo about this since she's a fulltime artist who's studying it professionally now! *^*
A dorm!! (*゚∀゚*) Roommates, parties, college life... ♪ Ohh I wish I was in your shoes to experience this ♡ The beginning of your adult life! ☆ Best of luck to you <3
And that's the main thing! (*´꒳`*) Nobody knows what will happen in a year or two, the only things that matter is what you do and love to do now ♡
Tbh I wasn't even ready going to work with news since my real specialization is a photojournalist (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) But the vacancies were quite different so I had to quickly adapt :D
Omg I shouldn't have written so long to delay you— I'm so glad you had such a productive day, please take your time with drawing and sleep well first!╰(*´︶`*)╯
