Hey, I was wondering if you could use your writing skills on a scenario with Apollo, Hades, and Buddha, where they meet the reader (a goddess of the cosmos), who hasn't interacted with other deities(and humans)?I hope you will consider it.
A/N: Hello there, Anon!! I always consider the requests that are sent into my inbox! I really did like your request, as the Goddess of Cosmos thing is really cute. Uranus is used as the Reader's father here! I do hope you enjoy this!!

☀️ He had heard about you from both his nymphs and fellow Gods
☀️ You were known as the Greek Goddess of the Cosmos, and the daughter of Uranus, the previous God of Cosmos
☀️ Unlike many Greek Gods, you were very introverted, straying far away from Gods, only seen speaking to the sky, supposedly to your father, who personified the sky
☀️ All Gods were pretty much required to go to Gods’ Council meetings, but nobody had ever seen you join the meetings, with the excuse from Hades that you were resting in one of your father’s temples
☀️ And it surprised everyone when stars started falling from the ceiling and you popped up, sitting on a cloud, bundled up by a cute comet blanket
☀️ He stared at you with hearts in his eyes, you were the most beautiful Goddess he had ever seen before, and in his opinion, you surpassed Aphrodite
☀️ Your eyes shimmered with stars and your cheeks were littered with small sparkles
“ Ah, Y/N! It’s a pleasure to see you decided to join us for once! “
☀️ Apollo ignored Zeus’ comment and watched as you waved lightly to other Gods before Aphrodite sat beside you and began to caress your hair, with permission of course!
☀️ The God of the Sun then decided, you were going to be the one he would marry and have children with, after all, opposites attract, he just hopes maybe you’d return the feelings

💀 Hades knew of you because he had seen you around as he grew up
💀 As the God of the Dead, he knew of your history, as your mother was mortal and your father was the original God of the Cosmos, how that worked? No clue
💀 You were known around the Greek Pantheon as a kind and quiet individual, never really showing up to meet anyone, including Zeus when he beat Cronos and took over the head
💀 The only person you had ever really spoken to that he knew of was Aphrodite, and that was because she had come across you inside of one of Uranus’ temples one night while she walked around
💀 Hades was just taking a stroll throughout Helheim when he heard a small voice singing by the river STYX
💀 He cocked an eyebrow and immediately turned and walked towards the noise, expecting to find a possible nymph of a visiting God or Goddess, but, he found you
💀 You had a blackhole-themed outfit on, it fanning out by your feet as the cloud of stars underneath you slowly were sucked in and exported out of the middle of it over and over again
💀 He froze in place and caught your attention with how he stood by you after finally gaining the confidence to move towards you
💀 After speaking for a while, you both realized you liked one another, and you swore to visit him more often. And during one of those visits, he discovered his feelings, now, all he hopes is that you like him back

🍭 Buddha knew of you, but he didn’t actually know you
🍭 He had heard about you mainly through Gods’ Council meetings, as some Gods would complain about having to be there while you weren’t obligated like them
🍭 He had decided to head out for a walk before the 4th round of Ragnarok ensued, and that was when he had met you
🍭 You were sitting on a star-formed cloud that was letting stars fall into the ground, leaving slight burn marks, then flowers grew
🍭 To say he was curious was an understatement, he was getting nosy
🍭 Buddha looked at you from behind and tapped your shoulder before swiftly moving to the front saying ‘boo’
🍭 The way you jumped and looked behind you in surprise amused him, and seeing you then turn around once again in shock before getting flustered and backing away
🍭 The way your cheeks flushed and the sparkles that littered your cheeks began to brighten made him chuckle
🍭 Ever since that day, he had a habit of meeting up to speak with you, and you seemed to enjoy his presence
🍭 He loved to mess with your hair which was littered with many different kinds of things, from clips symbolizing planets to small stars
🍭 During his match of Ragnarok, he smirked, looked at you and laughed as stars enveloped Zerofuku’s head as you leapt in front of him, declaring your alliance with Humanity, and ever since then, you guys have been inseparable
🍭 It was that form of honor and determination that made him realize his feelings for you ran deeper than friendship, so, now, he plans to ask, if you felt the same. Oh how he hopes you do!

January Week 3
Energy sources in witchcraft
Whether you believe in and practice energy work or not, what it is that empowers your workings has to come from somewhere. The belief is one thing, but the movement of the spell is another. This week we’ll look at energy and where it comes from. In various different forms.
Monday - Elemental Energies
New pages (the elements) - What are the elements? Fire, earth, air and water? Or are there others? I know some witches who work specifically with one element or with all of them. What are they? What energies do each possess and represent? How can we incorporate these into our craft, if we do. Make a page for all of them or a page for each of them! Spend a little time familiarizing yourself with each element, how to connect to it, focus it, use it, influence it and so on. What legends or myths are there related to these archetypal elements? Are there secondary elemental forces beyond the common four or five?
Study (herb) - Once again! Look into all the details of one of the herbs from your list!
Journal/ introspection - personal relationship with the elements - How do you relate to the elements? What is your elemental sign? What are the signs of all your natal chart and how do you connect to them? How do you connect to each element individually and how do they flow together, into and through one another? Are the differences between them as strict as we think or are they somehow blurred together?
Tuesday - Personal Energy
New Page(s) - Energy within and outside us. What is personal energy? How can we focus and manipulate it? How can we direct it and exercise it? Where do you believe it comes from? What is its actual source? What are some other ideas and beliefs about personal energy inside and outside or witchcraft?
Study (gem) - Pick one of those gems, and study!
Wednesday - Cosmic Energies
New page - Celestial energies, what are they? How do we follow them and connect to them? How do we utilize them in our craft? How do they change and grow? How do we harness and direct them? Study the history of using celestial bodies as sources of energy in witchcraft and spellworking.
Journal/ research - Think about your personal relationship to celestial bodies. How do you feel when you look at the sun and moon? What do they represent to you, personally, without looking up meanings and definitions. What do you feel when you think about them and their relationship to each other, to you, to the earth and to other celestial bodies? What about other planets or objects in space? Think deep. What do all of these things represent to you? Sun, Moon, Earth, Planets, Comets, Meteors, Black holes, etc.
Thursday - Natural Energies
New pages (Natural Energy) - Think about the natural forces that exist in the world around us. Solar, wind, geothermic, electricity, storms, weather and so on. What are the natural forces at work in the world and how can we incorporate them into witchcraft? What does each represent to you personally? Again, before you look too deep into each one individually, think about them in relation to yourself. How do you feel about them? How do they relate to you? To each other? Once you've garnered your personal ideas and correspondences, then dig in deeper and look them up.
Friday - Divine Energies
New pages (Divine Energy) - Not all witches work with deities or incorporate religion into their craft, but some do. How does energy from deities work? How do deities influence witchcraft for those who utilize their beliefs into their craft? If you do, what deities do you work with and what powers/ spheres of influence do those deities connect to in your craft? Make a page for each deity you work with, if you do, and learn about them. History, legends, myths and associations. But of course look inward first, what do you associate with those deities? What powers do they possess? What symbols are associated with them?
Practical - Do some energy work! Whatever sources of energy you work with for your witchcraft, practice working with it. Work with the elements, work with the celestial energies, or the divine, or the natural sources of energy within you or in the world around you. Meditate and connect to the elements. Find their physical embodiments in the world and interact with them (SAFELY). Practice moving your own energy or whatever energy you're working with. Most important, be safe and have fun!
There was a lot this week too! So I hope you're all hanging on and enjoying the challenge so far! It's gonna get bigger and more challenging as we go! Be prepared to have lots of notes to fill in your grimoire with later!
-Mod Hazel

Do you have any lore for your pirate AU you can share? 👀
so its not super developed, and im not sure if ill build on it much, but i have a bit of lore!
doom is the captain of the Comet, and hes super feared and has legends around him and stuff. out of nowhere he just goes off the map, radio silent for years. then, after the years of nothing, theres sightings of the Comet sailing again, but with a new captain, aka Shadow.
shadow has the third eye in this au because it's essentially dooms way of keeping things under his control from the background. shadow may be the new captain, but dooms the one pulling the strings.
meanwhile, sonic and co are all childhood friends. they all grow up hearing about the pirate legends, and sonic actually saw the Comet once.
sonic, being who he is, decides to sail when he grows up, and challenge the Comet. when he hears tell of the new captain, rumored to be a deity of the ocean, and the fastest pirate alive, sonic cant NOT go after it!
amy has her own ship, shes not a pirate, but she ships goods back and forth. eventually the entire crew is convinced to tag along on sonics little quest.
when they run low on goods, they make a plan to plunder a kingdom. they kidnap their princess, blaze, and make their demands. sonic whispers to her that they arent actually gonna kill her obviously, its just rough out here you know?
blaze however, is sick of stuffy palace life, and asks if she can tag along. the crew agrees, so with a new member and replenished food, theyre back on their way. (yes blazamy is implied)
when the do find the Comet, they get. absolutely thrashed.
however , the captain is impressed at the show of skill, and agrees to let the rest of the crew go free in exchange for sonic.
doom, however, isnt pleased that shadow let the rest of the crew live (that one comic). sonic ends up overhearing that doom isnt actually dead, and realizes this great legend he read about for so long was much more of an abusive asshole than he anticipated.
sonic ends up befriending eclipse and rouge, and obviously slow burn sonadow as well. they all agree doom needs to die, but shadow doesnt know if he can bring himself to do it, when being afraid of doom is all hes ever known.
thats pretty much everything solid i have! im really bad at writing endings, but i may work on it!

Fundr einn forað
“Fundr einn forað”: Old Norse for “Meet the monster”
Basim Ibn Ishaq x reader
Word count: 882
A/N: I’ve been meaning to write about Basim since Valhalla and I finally found the energy to do so. I really like how his sweet personality differs from Loki's. Enjoy!
Tumblr media
You saw it when he emerged from the cave again.
Basim had left the temple physically unscathed, contrary to what Rayhan had warned him about. Truth be told, you didn’t think you’d see him again. Your kind had spoken of the tale for many generations, from Hidden one to Hidden one, all the way to you. Those that dare open the sacred temple are never themselves again - to have their lives spared by whatever being lurks inside is punishment enough, as they later have to face a lifetime of madness. Some don’t even come back out of the cave.
First it was your parents, then Roshan, then Rayhan - everyone around you had warned you not to seek what was forbidden, what was never meant for you to find in the first place.
But it was different for him, wasn’t it? The temple was a mere enigma to you - just an ancient mystery hidden inside a cave, only calling out to you if you entertained the idea of venturing inside, but it never lured you in. Even when he’d first arrived at Alamut, Basim would always stare at the entrance of the cave. You thought it was his longing to join the creed and carry out the ceremony, but now that you saw it, there was definitely something else there. Basim was being lured by something from inside the temple.
It was slippery and fast, but if you were to pay attention closely, you’d see it. All those times you would talk by the cavern, when he’d confide in you about his nightmares - you’d notice it. It didn’t take a keen eye to see the way Basim would keep glancing at the cave, or miss the tinge of red in his pupils that would flee the second he was awoken by his night terrors. It was all the work of a jinni, he would say - but you knew better.
Gods, you knew better. You knew, you suspected, you theorized that something terrible must have been going on. It was deeper than some curse a merchant could have cast on a former thief, or a nightmare caused by stress and physical strain. You’d returned to Baghdad with him, Roshan, and Fuladh, read the scriptures, even visited the House of Wisdom to better understand what could possibly be haunting him. While Basim was busy proving himself to the Brotherhood and fighting the Ancient Ones, you’d buried yourself in books to help him battle his demons, too.
He didn’t know. One day, when he’d come back to the bureau to report his mission, he found you looking through the scrolls. He was well acquainted with your passion for literature, but the moment you’d shown your research to him, he regarded you with warmth in his eyes. You were ranting about all the different ways his night terrors could be tamed, discussed the possible identity of the so-called jinni according to the description he had provided you, made a list of curses and deities that were prevalent in ancient mythologies – and Basim just leaned in close to steal a kiss from your lips, silencing you swiftly.
You knew because you saw the way he looked at you. His eyes were brown, like the dunes of the evening desert - cool and silky sand that shone bright under the sun. Brown like the soil you walked on, the expensive leather of the books at the House of Wisdom, the damp boulders that held up the cave in Alamut. The cave that held the answers to his turmoil.
He didn’t know – but he wanted to. The lack of answers tore his soul apart. Basim just wanted to understand; what beast wanted to torment him in his sleep? Why was it seeping into daylight now, too? Did it seek revenge, when all Basim wanted was peace?
His eyes would crumble every night. You’d see the dunes in his eyes shake in fear, watch them collapse with every ragged breath he took as he held onto you. And there, in the desert night that was reflected in his eyes, a red comet would glint and flee before you could fully register it.
 Basim wanted to - no, needed to know. Into the cave he’d have to go, then. Alone.
You knew he’d found whatever it was he was looking for – because he no longer held the posture of a man who was deprived of sleep, of answers. He strode with the newfound purpose of a man who looked almost smug. The novices immediately tackled him into a hug when they saw him come out, and Rayhan joined to proudly clap him on his back. And you? You were relieved, arms wrapped around him in a tight embrace as his arms enveloped you, too. But then you looked up, and his eyes shone red. The sandy dunes were bleeding, seething with anger - and then, the color was gone. 
The way he looked at you - it was wrong. Like someone had taken his eyes, painted them to their liking and dipped them in blood. And his smile - it didn’t even reach his eyes. But he was still himself, same voice, same face, same manners, same Basim. Only this wasn't Basim. You knew Basim was gone.
And the man before you knew that you knew, too.

Crowley and Dionysus
I was reading Aleister Crowley's poem 'Dionysus' (the real A. Crowley) and I wanted to do some research on the god Dionysus. The similarities are interesting:
The snake was closely associated with Dionysus; one of his forms was a snake.
God of Wine
With the intervention of Zeus, Dionysus had to turn into a goat to save himself.
The name of Dionysus in Roman mythology is "Bacchus", the god of plant growth.
Dionysus rides a wild beast. The ancient Greeks believed the panther was one of the favored mounts of the god Dionysus, which emphasizes his wild, carefree nature.
Tumblr media
In his other works, Aleister Crowley talks about the creation of Jesus of Nazareth through Dionysus. Dionysus came first, he is the "True Christ" and Jesus was derived from the corruption of myths. Both Jesus and Dionysus have stories associated with miraculous or divine births. Jesus turned water into wine, which is exactly what Dionysus does. Both figures are associated with miracles and transformations. Both Jesus and Dionysus have narratives involving suffering and death followed by some form of resurrection or return. Both figures are associated with the symbolism of sacrifice. Therefore, during the Second Coming, we might expect Dionysus to come forward. *wink*
Dionysus is called "twice-born"
Dionysus is the son of Zeus, a wielder of lightning.
Tumblr media
Dionysus is the grandchild of the Titan Cronus. Since the Renaissance, Titan Cronus has been consciously identified with another character, Chronos, the primordial God of Time, due to the similarity in names. The fact that this identification became more widespread during the Renaissance gave rise to the iconography of 'Father Time,' aka. the bearded and winged Time deity, who carries an hourglass and a timekeeping device, similar to Crowley's watch.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dionysus is known as an earth god who has the grace of a woman.
Tumblr media
Ampelos, a pretty satyr boy, also the personification of the grapevine, is the lover of Dionysus…and he dies. We can ignore the last part eh.. It's a bad omen not a good one.
Tumblr media
Excerpts from Aleister Crowley's poem Dionysus, decorated with cosmos and fire:
I bring ye wine from above, From the vats of the storied sun; For every one of yer love, And life for every one.
I kindle a flame like a torrent To rush from star to star; Your hair as a comet’s horrent, Ye shall see things as they are!
...
Your loves shall lap up slaughter, And dabbled with roses of blood Each desperate darling daughter Shall swim in the fervid flood.
My life is bitter and sterile, Its flame is a wandering star.
Ye shall pass in pleasure and peril Across the mystic bar That is set for wrath and weeping Against the children of earth;
But ye in singing and sleeping Shall pass in measure and mirth! I lift my wand and wave you Through hill to hill of delight :
… I lead you, lord of the maze, In the darkness free of the sun; In spite of the spite that is day’s We are wed, we are wild, we are one.
Tumblr media
PS: I am not implying here that Crowley is actually Dionysus. I made a comparison with a character that I think is Crowley's mythological counterpart.

Words whispered in reverent silence.
Secret unknown.
Untold.
Unspoken.
Too many words.
Not enough words.
Silent benedictions of worship, never to be revealed to their deity.
Sacraments of heart a-flutter of the visage of perfection that sentient being attempt to recreate.
No beauty of sculpt, no brush of stroke,
can evermore lay claim to such exquisite sight and sound.
False promise of salvation from damnation separate dichotomy’s pull to be whole. Together.
Together.
Us.
Us.
Together.
Specter’s light is all that shines from above. Memory remnant persist. Prayer for union of soul and body gone unanswered.
The void does not answer still.
Lust.
Desire.
Love.
Words that have no meaning,
no comprehension for the unyielding burn within.
Transcendent the meaning for which the need to be with you.
Hold you.
Touch you.
Veneration beyond climax.
Creation of the universe nary a fit of compare for the sublime splendor of your candescence. No star, no sun, no comet a-streak,
could ever hope to bring a match unto your Light.
Forever and ever and ever,
Ever.
Ever.
Ever.
Combustion claim never to be of atoms colliding together exclusive.
The very fibers woven into corporation’s heart burst a-flame at simple thought of you.
Growing.
Growing.
Never enough will love for you be captured.
Never enough.
Never enough.
•••
An apple never such be the sweetest of fruit on mine lips.
Yet of cyanide-like tox I do suffer
of the breath you stole as we kissed.
Crushing, squeezing, suffocating in divinity such that the sweet, sweet poison of your lips upon mine…
The potion I knew not I lacked.
•••
Lavish
Ravish
Devour
Famine has no name in your presence.

Tumblr media
Mariana Trench Angel
sighted primarily in the early 20th century. this star deity was born prematurely in a distant nebula, tasked with menial work like overseeing biologically rich planets, like the primordial Earth during the Pre-Cambrian Period.
it developed an obsession with guiding biological beings toward spacefaring levels of civilization. it guided many cultures on different worlds toward this goal, though most died out either naturally or through wars of dogma and knowledge.
on earth, it waited until humanity developed, and strove to guide these creatures to the stars. many ancient observatories and astronomy facilities were built with its knowledge of the cosmos.
it seemed that this deity’s lifelong work was going to be a success, however during the Younger Dryas, a comet veered off of its course and seemingly targeted the deity while it sang humanity’s praises over the Pacific Ocean. upon impact, it was sent into Challenger Deep, where it now lays in a vegetative, regenerative state.
it awaits its full restoration, while calling out to humans whose bloodlines can be drawn to the ancient astronomers of the Pre-Younger Dryas era to search for it. visions of archaic stone monoliths, equations in languages lost to time, and the deity’s guiding tendrils plague the minds of millions of humans today. all they have to do is dive into the depths of the Mariana Trench to find their true god.

Stuff I hope to learn more about in future roots of chaos books
Just posting my thoughts here in case people wanted to share theories
Questions for the Wild Winter book (For the adofn sequel that covers the direct aftermath of the Grief of Ages)
As sterren grows more powerful, do dragons become dangerous or out of control in some way? What are they like at the height of their power?
More about sterren itself? How long does it last in a mage's system, if the comet only appears every few centuries, could it potentially last longer and not burn out (pun intended) as quickly as siden?
What happened to the Queendom of Sepul, it no longer exists as of tpotot, but at what point did it fall?
Will Glorian ever know the truth about Cleolind and Galian?
Questions about the Cleolind-Kalyba-Neporo book
What was Galian really like as a person? What was his Holy Retinue like?
What happened to the two other trees?
More information about the ancient faiths/governments/cultures of the Virtudom kingdoms please
Questions for TPOTOT sequel
What happens to Inys, how quickly does it transition from a kingdom to a republic.
The other countries' reactions (particularly Virtudom) to the truth about their religion.
General Questions
How does the Six Virtues explain how Galian attained his powers if there's no god or higher deity in the faith?
Are there any countries beyond the known world?
Are there any faiths in the East besides dragon worship?
How does alchemy work? Does it even work?

Space Riders -2
Hey! Before you scroll or leave, I made a DogDay chat on CrushOn AI, it would be super helpful if you go give it a like! I may post it on C.AI as well. You’ll know which one by looking for this art:
Tumblr media
You probably already saw the other one. But… here’s more! Add me in your space rider AU comics if you want, I don’t mind at all! Tag me when it’s finished! :0
People I’m Tagging: (Creator and a person adding me to their comic. Will update when more people do or when they stop. Maybe-)
@onyxonline @thedeadchildrean
Tumblr media
Overdrive:
I was trying to do gradient feet and aura (the things connected to eyelashes) but I figured it’s fine without it so you can add that on your own time if you want.
I’m not drawing without the clothes on. That’s just weird… but imagine another outfit or something-
So umm… a bunch of powers are here from the stars and cosmos! Include whichever you want in your comics!
Also yeah. Gonna sound OP as Shit, most of it I just took from the wiki and edited it a bit, I added quotation marks to give them credit. I was gonna do it myself but god damn was I not prepared to see like a billion powers-)
Credit: SuperPower Wiki
I only did some of them. Mainly because at this point I was getting tired but I feel bad since I told a few people it’d be out by today-
But most of them r kinda self explanatory. Or just click on the link and scroll down to where it explains it (which should be right under it) and how it works.
link: https://powerlisting.fandom.com/wiki/Star_Power
Cosmic Symbiosis (“Concentrate the power of the cosmic being that lies within one's body and manipulate it.” Basically OverDrive Mode!)
Cosmic Manipulation (“Control cosmic forces” Such as: “manipulation of matter and energy across space and time, the manipulation of the space-time continuum, altering the fabric of reality, the creation of force fields, the creation of inter-dimensional portals and vortexes, psionics, energy projection, and cosmic awareness, manipulate comets, meteors, asteroids, moons, planets, stars, nebula, neutron stars, quasars, black holes, white holes, galaxies, antimatter and dark matter. They can generate stellar winds, solar flares, cosmic storms, and invoke meteor showers. They can also empower themselves and others by harnessing the power of cosmos.”)
Cosmic Empowerment (“Gain strength from the cosmic forces”)
Cosmic Energy Manipulation (“Manipulate cosmic energy.” Such as Stars, Planets, use it to my own will)
Universal Power Link
Personal Stellar Energy
Stellar Generation
All Star-Based Powers
Bio-Stellar Manipulation
Bio-Stellar Transformer
Esoteric Star Generation
Fire Generation
Light Generation
Nuclear Generation
Plasma Generation
Stardust Generation
Stellar Blast
Stellar Manipulation
Black Hole Manipulation
Pulsar Manipulation
Stardust Manipulation
Stellar Amplification
Stellar Energy Manipulation
Solar Flare
Stellar Attacks
Stellar Deity
Supernova Inducement
Supernova Manipulation
Stellar Magic
Astrology
Esoteric Star Manipulation
Nova Manipulation
Techniques
Black Hole Creation (Self explanatory)
Star Creation (Self explanatory)
Star Fall (Self Explanatory)
Stellar Arts
Stellar Healing
Stellar Physiology (“Have a body made up of stellar energy. Basically overdrive mode”)
Stellar Pressure (“Generate damaging stellar energy.”)
Stellar Regeneration (“Use stellar elements for regeneration.”)
Stellification (“Transform others and oneself into stars, stellar energies and constellations.“)
What I added:
•Healing (It can be a spell or just an ability, works to an extent, can lift cursed, add buffs etc, cannot reverse any type of physical damage that has been dis-attached from the body. For example unable to put an arm back in place. Only works for wounds and helping out. Can fix sprains or stuff though. Stellar Regeneration is limited to small things like losing a bit of your ear, a patch of skin comes off etc…)
•Flight / Hover (I just wanted to add it to fly lmao.)
•Force Field (Can protect against a bunch of stuff (for example lasers, rocks, blasts, explosions etc.) only can withstand strong attacks if supported by other allies who have similar powers. (For example but not limited too: Sun,Moon,Eclipse,Space,Other planets, Aurora Lights or other natural phenomenons related to space in some way.)
•Light manipulation (Able to summon a light source at any time. It helps when you’re afraid of the dark y’know?)
(this was posted at 4am my time-)

Keeping an eye on if any more weevils come into the house, because it seems like perhaps Loki has switched from spiders (I have developed genuine arachnophobia lmao) to weevils for getting my attention when I'm being really stubborn
I had THREE weevils in the span of two days, and they were in very odd places (halfway up the shower wall for example), and as soon as I acknowledged Loki and made sure to keep checking in with him throughout the day, there haven't been any more?
Not taking this as fact though yet because it might've just been a wild happenstance that three ended up in that room so close together in time. We'll see! If I keep up with Loki and don't see any more weevils then I'll be a little more leaning towards a metaphysical explanation for it :]

Now for the edgy blader with a soft spot for animals!
Here's Lain!
Tumblr media
Lain is the God of Doomsday. As the patron of the apocalypse, he is a surprisingly very serious god. His simple presence demands respect and fear from everyone in the room, causing them to practically trip over themselves to avoid bringing his catastrophic wrath.
As said in the previous chapter, Phelix is the God of Destruction, but even he has his limits. He can only destroy physical things, not ideas, not concepts. He cannot destroy reality itself. That's where Lain comes in. His power can destroy everything - physics, reality, and, eventually, the universe. No plant, human, animal, galaxy, or god is safe from his reach.
It's because of this power that he is considered the darkest of the Dark Gods, with his very name being enough to send a shiver of fear down the spine of any deity. Even Phelix and the Princes of Chaos, the Gods of Destruction, Darkness, and Monsters, respectively, shudder when even a slight mention of him is brought up in conversation.
Because his power is so feared, constraints were placed upon it long ago. He has one role and is expected to stick to it.
For a hundred million years, he sort of "hibernates" at the center of the universe. When the years are up, he wakes up and ventures out into the far reaches of the universe to see what has transpired during his slumber. If he likes what he sees, he'll return to where he came from and go back into his hibernation for another hundred million years. But if he finds more than a few things that he dislikes, he'll deem the reality a failure and bring about its destruction - in other words, its doomsday. Then, using the remaining ashes of the universe, he sets the wheels into motion to create the next reality, then goes back into his hundred million year sleep.
Surprising? It should be. He's done it twice already, and you most likely had no idea.
Since he's also associated with recreation and rebirth, several apocalyptic cults are based around him. They pray and offer sacrifices (both animal and human) in an attempt to wake him from his slumber so that he can make the universe anew.
Luckily for everyone else, he's too far away for him to hear their prayers...
It could be something monumental that has him deciding not to destroy the universe, or it could be something small and simple. There's a myth that he was once on the verge of destroying reality, but was stopped by the tender eyes of an adorable hedgehog. He unfortunately decided not to bring it back to the center of the universe with him, unable to bring himself to subject an innocent creature to an eternal slumber.
All deities are destroyed when Lain remakes the universe, as new concepts will be created in the next reality, which will come with new deities. The only gods he can't destroy are heavenly siblings Pri and Pax, the Gods of Balance and History respectively. They both have essential roles, no matter what universe they're in. Once Lain sets the new reality into motion, Pri must ensure that everything comes to fruition in order for life to form. Pax must detail both the destruction of the old universe and the creation of the new universe in his endless book - he is the only one in existence who has complete knowledge of every reality that ever existed.
The three deities have worked hand in hand since the very first reality, seeing the death of one and the birth of another. It's not an easy job, but they know that they're the only ones to do it.
What do you think of God Lain?
And get out your team spirit, because the Comets are up next!
To keep the list going, who do you want to see as a god next?

Saw a post and was instantly inspired to do the same.
Little Oracle details:
Duga 3 DOES exist. Oracle just hasn't found it yet.
Oracle and Scholars are confused as to why people believe Atlantis USED to exist. It hasn't been founded yet.
The Appalachian and Carpathian mountains are made of "dragon" bones.
DO NOT TRAVEL THROUGH NORWEGIAN FJORDS. If you must travel through one never use your real name, never look behind you, travel through it as fast as you can. Once you enter a fjord you cannot go back the way you came. May Óðinn grant you the strength you need to make it to the other side.
A colossal deity circles the Earth. If She was to stop for a single second something will find us.
She's been forced to stop three times already. The thing is looking in our direction.
There is no way to know when and where a portal entrance will activate. There is no way tell where it'll send you.
A woman once stabbed and wounded a god of gods and imprisoned Them in a maze inside a cave inside a portal in Africa. If They ever regain Their strength and find a way out the sun will whither and the day will die.
There's something hiding in El Yunque. Don't look for it.
Deities live among you, they look just like everyone else.
In 1921 the U.S. government lost a numbers station. Last time it was seen was in 2012 near Yellowstone. Only the leader and acting leader of Oracle know its location at all times.
If you ever find yourself in the woods late at night and hear the sound of violins immediately make your way to the nearest shelter, do not look up at the trees. It is not a violin.
The world ended once, it's just that no one remembers it.
The Tunguska Event was not caused by a comet, nor an asteroid, nor a meteor air burst. It was [REDACTED] when he summoned [REDACTED].
The Roswell Incident was a fabrication to distract the U.S. government. It worked.
The Chelyabinsk meteor was actually the start of an invasion. It wasn't aliens.
A worldwide pandemic, dubbed The Halo Virus, occurred not too long ago. Symptoms include hallucinations, derealization, fever, confusion, aggression, brain bleed, ocular trauma, and loss of free will. Among the infected were gods, goddesses, a Nordic berserker and the Arch-Maker.
There is a city beneath the icy land mass of Antarctica. The only known point of entry is via a small island in 48°52.6′S 123°23.6′W.
There is a black site in [REDACTED], Virginia. It's been housing the same prisoners since 1766 CE. It's been watched over by an entity and every 50 years the acting leader of Oracle meets with said entity to renew the contract.
Something massive haunts the Barents and Norwegian Sea.
There is a festival celebrated by berserkers all around the world. It takes place in the world's first underground colosseum built by berserkers for berserkers in Ethiopia. Many come to the festival to test their might against other berserkers.
There is a grimoire that travel across time and space. There is no telling when or where it'll show up. It stays for a while and then disappears into the ether. It contains illegal, dangerous and blasphemous spells, runes, incantations and so on. No one really knows anything about it, the only things known is that it hasn't been written yet. [[[Angelus got his hands on it for a while and copied most of it and wrote some incantations into it to contribute but he ripped out six specific pages and has kept them in a secure area. The pages touched up on how to attack, disable, greatly hurt or manipulate Makers. He did it for more than obvious reasons.]]]
There is a woman who learned of a secret that no one was supposed to know, upon learning of the secret her mind "broke" and she began to scream loudly and in agony though no one knows if she actually is in agony. She is currently in a sound proof room in a hospital hidden from the public. She just sits and continues to scream into the ether, she doesn't eat, drink or do anything else, she doesn't age or change at all. There is zero logical explanation as to how she's still alive. Scholars suspect that if/when she stops screaming whatever secret she learned will manifest. Given the agonizing screaming she emits it can't be any good. [[[Totally inspired by a really freaking weird dream I had.]]]

Dragon Ball Retcons: The Lucky Streak
When the late, great Akira Toriyama first began work on Dragon Ball, it was a gag-flavored spoof on the legend of the classic Japanese novel Journey to the West. It was only toward the end of that initial story arc that Toriyama began to add an element of seriousness with Goku's transformation into an Oozaru. After this event, Oolong asks "So is Goku some kind of alien or something?", setting the stage for perhaps the luckiest streak of retcons from a writer who is clearly just making everything up as he goes along ever. By which I mean, retcons that were clearly never a pre-planned intention and yet somehow fit in so seamlessly that you could swear otherwise. Obviously, Toriyama eventually decided to retcon that Goku was, in fact, an alien. But with that throwaway line from Oolong, it now feels long foreshadowed!
The other examples:
- The Red Ribbon Army was the first serious villainous force that Goku faced, being full of dangerous high-tech gadgetry and robotics. However, the joke twist ended up being that its leader, Commander Red, was just some rich idiot with a Napoleon complex who wanted to use the Dragon Balls to wish himself taller and then go on to conquer the world, as opposed to simply using the Dragon Balls to wish for world domination. At the time, all of those technological threats were just a means to an end, a build-up to a punchline, and nothing more. But later, Toriyama decided that it was a super genius named Dr. Gero who was behind all of that stuff, and since Goku brought it all down he'd have more reason than anyone else in the Red Ribbon Army to hate him, causing him to seek vengeance through the creation of the Androids and Cell. And it totally tracks! The reason an organization led by a joke villain still felt so serious as a threat was because its weaponry was engineered by a serious villain, and that villain returning to ultimately cost Goku his life via a creation that blends the cells of Goku, his friends and his foes feels like a natural full circle accumulation for the story.
- Mercenary Tao actually managed to defeat Goku with a technique called the Dodonpa. At the time, it was just a cool and unexpected way to finish a fight and cement Tao as a formidable opponent. But later, Toriyama decided to bring in the Crane Hermit school of martial arts which lends its teachings to the mercenary lifestyle, which is how we get Tienshinhan. Now it looks like Tao was deliberate foreshadowing of this new three-eyed foe turned mainstay ally of Goku's even though Toriyama hadn't thought him up back then.
- Piccolo and Kami were both green with pointy ears and antennas, looking more like aliens than demon and deity respectively. And per Toriyama's own admission, he hadn't planned them as aliens until it came time for them to face off in the 23rd Budokai. That's when he decided they were actually aliens and decided to foreshadow it with a talk between them spoken entirely in an unknown language, which turned out to be the native language of the Namekians - something that would become a pivotal plot point during the Freeza Saga.
- The Saiyans (Raditz, Nappa and Vegeta) all wore a distinct spiked battle armor, had energy scouters over their eyes, and traveled in spherical space pods. Later, Toriyama retconned it so that these motifs were all part of Freeza's empire and not the Saiyans. This would not have felt natural....had Toriyama not also made the pivotal change in plans of leaving Vegeta alive at the end of his battle with Goku on Earth. Because the Saiyans' leader is still in the story, we get to clearly see his interactions and dynamics with Freeza and his empire, totally selling us the notion that this was how it always was; that he and his comrades were always serving in that empire while also scheming to overthrow it someday. It made perfect sense.
- Similarly, the remark Raditz gave about the Saiyans' home planet being destroyed by a comet was later retconned into being a lie by Freeza, who actually destroyed the planet. Once again this ended up feeling perfectly natural, because so much of Freeza's character via the still living Vegeta was the tight grip he preferred to have on the Saiyans lest they become a threat to him. So it tracks that he would decide to reduce the number of Saiyans in existence to make this easier and hopefully make a Super Saiyan arising less likely.
- Vegeta in general was pure happenstance somehow producing one of the best developed characters in the series. Instead of the throwaway arc villain he was created to be, he survived to be a great secondary villain turned ally through necessity in the Freeza Saga, where he met his tear-jerking demise....except even that wasn't to last despite originally being the intention, as his popularity caused Toriyama to resurrect him after Goku had become a Super Saiyan, creating the perfect segue into him shifting into more of a rival whose primary objective was to surpass Goku in strength. Selfish, but not villainous. And it just kept going from there, to the point where in the chapter where the decision to spare Vegeta in-universe and out of it was made, Krillin's vocal disbelief of the notion Vegeta will ever turn over a new leaf like Piccolo ends up feeling like foreshadowing that he would.
- There's also the whole Super Saiyan concept and how it seamlessly plays into the way Goku has always come back stronger after every defeat. The way his transformation happens is also steeped in dramatic irony that makes sense for the story: it isn't his strength or love for fighting that does it, but his Earth-bred compassion for his human friend Krillin.
- On that note, Gohan's hidden power. This was set up early into Gohan's time as a character, but it wasn't supposed to be specifically tied to anything. But in the Android Saga, Gohan ends up as the one most likely to fully transcend the level of Super Saiyan due to that hidden power of his. It now feels like this was always the logical end route for that plot thread even when Toriyama hadn't even thought up regular Super Saiyans yet when he started it.
- Last but not least, the Android Saga in general. This whole story was Toriyama and his editors winging it from beginning to end, and the finished product is something that flows so smoothly you'd swear it was pre-planned. Of course Androids 19 and 20 weren't the actual Androids that Trunks warned about! Of course Androids 17 and 18 were ultimately going to be redeemed villains! Of course Cell was designed to transform through the absorption of 17 and 18! Of course past elements like Dende, the Budokai tournament and Bulma being a tech genius were going to be incredibly important! Of course the story would end with the flaws Cell exploited in others being exploited in him, Gohan's power to be as much of a hindrance as a help, Goku sacrificing his life, Cell coming back even more powerful, Vegeta finally displaying actual love and humility and self-reflection, and Gohan defeating Cell by blasting him with the most powerful Kamehameha ever...one-handed! It all feels so organic both in itself and in context to the wider series! Yet Toriyama totally stumbled his way into it.
It really was impressive. Sadly, all good things must come to an end, and Toriyama never really captured that same magic afterward. Most of the retcons made in the Buu Saga, all of Dragon Ball Super, and the canonically licensed video games just feel so much more obvious and clunky. Some of them still feel sensible - Hercule's development and connection made to Goku's family, the existence of the Kaioshins, a space between time where one can intersect with the unlimited timelines...those all make sense given what has come before. But stuff like new Super Saiyan forms from Super Saiyan 3 and onward, Goten and Trunks being prodigious enough to master Super Saiyan and (when fused) Super Saiyan 3 as children, the kind of increasingly nonsensical abilities that Buu has, Beerus being the one to commission the destruction of Planet Vegeta, all of these parallel universes, Goku Black, Future Mai, Zeno, Broly and Paragus, randomly existing relatives of Commander Red and Dr. Gero, much of what goes on in the Super manga and Dragon Ball Heroes game...it's all a bunch of nonsense that truly feels as pulled out of Toriyama and his collaborators' asses as it is.
I still love the Dragon Ball franchise and even have fun with the stuff I just listed, but man, that period between when it started and when the Android Saga ended can't be topped.

K Reviews and Rants: Miraculous Ladybug Season 5! Episode 3
Once more, I arrive like a comet, and once more, I depart, having left a glimpse into the madness within my mind! As always, warnings for profanity.
Episode 3: Destruction 
Okay, we get the first major scene, Marinette moping around... okay, I'll give props to Alya for seeing what Marinette would like with her tea, even if I'm still annoyed at what she did LAST episode. Really annoyed at how much they keep reiterating "how many powers Hawkm-sorry, MONARCH has," since it's not like it's any different from the fucking AKUMAS!!! 
And now we get Monarch trying to demand Orikko give him the power of time travel (while ignoring that he can FUCKING AKUMATIZE HIMSELF AGAIN TO DO JUST THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY GIVEN PEOPLE TIME TRAVEL POWERS!!!), and we get a vague and unhelpful explanation about how Kwamis' powers are tied to concepts... which doesn't actually answer why in the world Orikko can't give him the power to travel through time, since AGAIN, Nooroo has given powers like that in the past, WE KNOW THAT HE HAS. 
And now... we get Astruc's "that's not a power, that's a wish" BS. Just... this is idiotic. Tracking down someone else's source of power is VERY MUCH A POWER, it is not "a wish!!" Where in the fucking world is he drawing the lines in the sand with this!? This is nonsensical!! He's going out of his way to put as many needless roadblocks in Gabriel's way as possible, and when it is THIS OBVIOUS what someone is doing, it's just stupid. 
See, yanking the villains' chain to force them to rethink their plans can work... BUT NOT WHEN YOU ARE VISIBLY MAKING UP THE RULES AS YOU GO ALONG!!! 
Seriously, FUCK THIS SHIT Astruc! There is no coherent ruleset on display here, you are not TELLING us what the actual rules ARE, and making up exceptions and excuses at the drop of the hat! This is like that kid who always goes "you missed" in a game of pretend and will keep coming up with reasons WHY you missed, no matter how obvious he's cheating to always win he is. IOTA's blog is very well-named if Thomas thinks THIS is good writing. GOD DAMMIT does this piss me off!! 
Heck, like I said, WE KNOW THE BUTTERFLY CAN GIVE TIME TRAVEL POWERS, so not only is Orikko's claims suspect, HAWKMOTH HAS ENDED UP FORGETTING HIS ACTUAL POWERS!!! 
Like, I know "forgot about his powers" has its place as a trope... but this is transparently BS. 
Yeah... this is all just stupidity on so many levels. And we also have another case of why the "can't infringe on another Kwami's concept" line is BS. Hawkmoth literally gave Copycat a one-to-one replica of Chat Noir's Cataclysm without any kind of issues AT ALL. 
And now, we get a scene of the Kwami chanting "meanie" over and over again at Gabriel... and these things are meant to represent ancient miniature deities. Riiiiiggghhhttt. Like, is this meant to appeal to the target demographic? Because... dude, Thomas, this is just plain stupid. I have no other words beyond "you are making the ancient GODS act like five year olds." Uuuggghhh... 
And... apparently Marinette is still considered their holder... why? Like, what kind of BS is this?? What is the significance of being a holder?? We got a single scene ONCE in Season 2 of Gabriel "renouncing his contract with Nooroo," but this has never once been shown to have any serious significance before. Also, why would MARINETTE be considered their holder!? She's barely used ANY OF THEM AT ALL IN BATTLE OR IN GENERAL!!! 
Okay, Gabriel apparently had a good idea (for once) in asking the Kwami "where does Ladybug LIVE," which is honestly a pretty good loophole... IF I WERE NOT STILL PISSED OFF AT THE RULES-LAWYERING PRIOR TO THAT. And the best answer he gets is something to do about following the scent of crescent rolls, which is also a fairly decent loophole... but I have a bad feeling about where this stupidity is going to end. 
And... we get Hawkmo-sorry, "Monarch" In Marinette's bedroom. Nothing creepy about that, no siree bob! And... apparently this is the first step in some deeper, longer plot Marinette set-up. UUGGGGHHH!!! Gabe... you explicitly asked them "where does LADYBUG live," and going by how the magic literally makes you able to forcibly prevent the Kwamis from making sounds, they SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO LIE TO YOU, so I'm pretty sure you should be able to figure out Marinette is Ladybug, after all, YOU FOUND OUT IT WAS HER IN TWO SEPARATE TIMELINES BASED ON A SINGLE LINE FROM YOUR SON!!! 
And a scene of Marinette's clumsiness... I haven't commented on this yet, but the way they portray her clumsiness makes me cringe because of just how... overexaggerated it tends to be. 
See, Thomas... a way this fiasco could've worked better would be if you applied "Lex Luthor rules" to this situation; have Gabriel be able to REALIZE Marinette is Ladybug... and then discard it because his own biases can't imagine his sworn enemy living such a mundane, humble life. THAT would make this massive pileup of plot contrivance SO MUCH MORE TOLERABLE. 
And now we get confirmation the Kwami are lying through their teeth to Monarch. Which makes all this plot contrivance EVEN WORSE because it makes me question why in the world he was able to bully answers out of Nooroo. Again, WHY THE FUCK HAS THIS SHOW NEVER DEFINED WHAT A HOLDER IS!? If they had, I'm pretty sure ninety percent of my headache over this episode would be fucking GONE already. 
And Marinette going on a rambling rant about her insecurities... really not the time and place. Also, not gonna lie, I like the subtle emphasis Monarch gave "Voyage." Also, how is the ice rink guy not freaking out over the LITERAL SUPERVILLAIN in front of him? You know what, not gonna think about this, the entire thing has been contrivance after contrivance since it started, THAT bit of "no survival skills" is honestly low on the ladder. 
And now... we get Monarch captured by Ladybug with Chat Noir posing as a statue... I'm gonna be even blunter than normal, what the fuck is even the point of this colossal ruse!? Seriously, this entire fiasco would've been more interesting if the scavenger hunt was REAL, but we already know it isn't because like FUCK the Kwami don't know where Marinette lives. Seriously, all this, just to get him into position to get Monarch, despite knowing all the places he's going to go on the hunt!? Like, they couldn't have put up an ambush earlier down the line, or, I dunno, at least put up the illusion of chasing him to make him think he's on the right trail!? And I can't remember, but isn't their really a statue of Chat Noir alongside the Ladybug statue? Then how was Chat able to take its place? Heck, this ENTIRE SET UP seems reliant on Chat being able to find out that Monarch is following the hunt and getting into position, since without him around, THEY CANNOT THREATEN HAWKMOTH USING THE CATACLYSM. Dear god is this fiasco poorly thought out, repress repress repress...!!! 
They also try and pull a "the Kwami had no choice...!" despite all the plot contrivance they baked into this stupidity. Also, did Marinette REALLY leave her address, sticking out of PUBLIC STATUE!? Granted, she could always replace it, but why the FUCK wouldn't one of the janitorial staff thrown it away!? Just... just gotta move on... 
Also, why in the world are they not taking all the Miraculouses right now, when they captured him?? They don't NEED HIM TO DETRANSFORM!! Seriously, they have FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE that it will happen automatically as soon as they take it off, so why did they waste so much time explaining how they set all this up!? Like, this is basically them wasting time when they have the villain LITERALLY HELPLESS!!! And then... Hawkmoth throws himself on the Cataclysm. Like... props for being hardcore, I guess. Though I do agree with Chat Noir, IS HE NUTS!? Seriously, Thomas, I must reiterate, WHAT ABOUT THIS GUY IS SUPPOSED TO BE SYMPATHETIC!? 
And when Hawkmoth uses Kaalki (seriously WHY DID THEY NOT GRAB THE MIRACULOUS THAT LETS HIM RUN AWAY FIRST!?) to escape, we get a scene of the Kwami being sucked away... I... I honestly do not remember if that's how that is supposed to work, because I distinctly remember a sick Tikki being able to be moved quite a decent distance from Marinette when she got mistaken as a toy by Chloe in Season 1, so why did they all get sucked away with him?? 
And Thomas, if you are gonna pull another "Marinette must always make a mistake" card moment for this BS... check. Your fucking. PRIVILEGE. Sorry if that doesn't make sense, but every time, EVERY FUCKING TIME We get stupidity like this, it feels like Thomas rips out that card as a "get out of criticism free" moment, and gloats about how genius he is. This is just idiotic on every level. 
Okay, and now we get the obligatory "what have I done/We failed moment" with the heroes. And Chat's being torn up over having Cataclysmed Hawkmoth, which I would say is a good thing... if I didn't know what was coming later on. 
But him going "he must be in so much pain." It feels OFF on every level. 
And now we get the breakdown of Marinette's plan... and it is still incredibly contrived since, AGAIN, it relies on the idea that the Kwami CAN lie to Hawkmoth, which undermines a lot of threat factor by making him have so little control over their actions. It's the fiasco with Queen Bee at the end of Miracle Queen all over again; like, Hawk Moth STOLE the Kwamis, and can com
mand them easily... but when Chloe tried it, they could just... tell her no? There is no consistency here. Like I said before, this would honestly make a better plot if it actually WAS a scavenger hunt for the Kwami to get back home, and Marinette had to scramble to lay a trap for him. 
Like, so much of this is Marinette acting like a chessmaster... and it falls flat on its face because of how much contrived BS is baked into the REASON Hawkmoth had to stumble ass-backwards into this shitty trap!! 
I just... I don't GET THIS. If they had taken time to set up how much will and independence Kwamis actually have with their wielders, defined what even a holder IS and what it means in terms of Kwamis, MAYBE this wouldn't be such a fiasco. But given this starts point blank with them adding a bunch of poorly defined qualifiers onto how the Rooster Miraculous WORKS as well as Hawkmoth FORGETTING HOW VERSATILE HIS OWN FUCKING POWER IS... yes, this is shit. 
And we get into the home stretch, Marinette is upset about how she failed, which is good. She honestly NEEDS genuine failures, REAL setbacks. And by "genuine" and "real" I mean ones that are actually the result of her fucking up. Even SUPERMAN fails sometimes, so why in the world would Marinette be an exception!? Yet... rather than consoling Marinette that she can do better next time, and that this showed how well she can plan strategically in the long term rather than just spontaneously... instead she basically writes off how much of this contrived fiasco had to go off PERFECTLY and involve Hawkmoth playing right into their hands, the numerous plot contrived BS forcing him into that situation in the first place, AND the fact that Marinette and Adrien accomplished NONE OF THEIR ACTUAL FUCKING GOALS, to say that this plan was a success and that Marinette's an amazing superhero. I'm sorry, but sometimes a hero doesn't need a boost to their self-esteem, they need reassurance that a failure doesn't define them. Alya, you fucked up right here, and Thomas, the fact that you aren't even acknowledging how the heroes failed to retrieve EVEN A SINGLE FUCKING MIRACULOUS just shows how contrived this BS plot really is. 
All that's left is Gabriel turning the Miraculouses into Rings, AKA the advent of the stupidest fucking costume in the show. I'll admit, while his "original" Look as Monarch wasn't the best, at least they put some FUCKING EFFORT into it. I even liked the stained-glass look. But what's coming? Blech. 
Oh, and the stupid as hell all white suit. Seriously dude, you DID NOT NEED THE SUIT. Just making your old suit fit tighter would've concealed the cataclysm injury just as fine. NOW it's over.

hi!!!!! I have a question and a request.
I was wondering how co is pronounced? (From the pronouns in your bio, I just don't want to say it wrong in my head)
Could you do a deity kin stim board? The aesthetic is dark, greek, gold, and like 80s/90s horror (like an early seasons supernatural type beat)
Anyways I think what you do is cool (:
Bye!!!
-🐝☀
Tumblr media
hello! i hope you'll like the stimboard!
i pronounce "co-" like the co sound in "coffee," "construct," and "comet" - like the shortened version of company/corporation! i hope that works as an explanation, thank you for asking so politely! and thank you for the complimentary words!✨
