To explain what I tried to do, so Carol as she just first met the dorm vs Carol when she got together with Damián was the idea behind this, I just drop this and leave. and its only her feelings towards them
Serendipia's relationship chart
Thank you so much for filling it out! 😊
I love seeing the transition. Im glad she gained some new friends.
Asdfgh Lustre got alittle progression but fitting he is always going to be kittenish to her as he is with alot of people including Damián who gets random squeeze hugs from him constantly. If he gets too much she can let Damián know who will ask Sin to make him ease off.
The Sable transition is so interesting for her to consider a friend despite her feelings from previous ask i sent you. I feel that could be partly Damián helping out? Given Sable is his best friend. Unsure if she'd tell Damián about the bird past but he would strive to introduce Sable to others so he not as scary feeling.

Darry and Paul 2.0?
Okay I just had to make another outsiders OC- couldn’t help it 😭
If it wasn’t already obvious, I made him the little brother of Paul Holden, I wanted to make like a repeat of Darry and Paul being buddies in the past with Keith and Ponyboy almost like a next generation thing, but better since they keep their friendship 0:
Some short info:He loves football but not as much as science, wants to focus more on biology in the future since he feels like he’s forced himself to want to play football for his future, he loves football, just doesn’t want to do it for his life. Unlike Nancy, Keith is like every other Soc, he’s actually semi popular among the socs, but in the end he realizes being a jerk is not for him, at first he didn’t care but after seeing some jumping of greasers and such, he kinda felt like it was unnecessary, and didn’t like the fights/rumbles.
He actually has a good life until he decides to make a change because he doesn’t want to keep up the life he has anymore, since he’s dealt with fake friends, and distrust among his own gang, sending his social fame in school kinda go down but not completely.
Paul and Keith would have some issues, and Keith wants to hate his older brother, but deep down he can’t fully or he feels confused/conflicted because they had a decent relationship, and I don’t doubt Paul Holden wouldn’t be happy about a family of his being friendly, or bumping shoulders with greasers. In short he’s got brother issues 💀
He’d become friends with Ponyboy after some weeks/maybe months after his change in a way, they’d be best buddies, he’d probably like to hang out with pony and Johnny when he could, try to protect him them from the other Socs if possible.
He would not like Steve either, thinks he’s dramatic and thinks Two-bit is cool/Tuff, as well as soda pop. I could see him being Ex friends with Bob and Randy.
Alright, I’ll draw more of Nancy and him soon,and Ponyboy! Though the height chart will come first, alright that’s all I got for this moment.

Always had a crush on his best friend Ren, but never told him that untill he found him again in Eorzea. In relationship with Ren now.
Tumblr media
Dawn and Sequoia were both born into the Greenleaf tribe. Dawn being the eldest brother and Sequoia the youngest.
Their father, Vanirr Greenleaf, who has been the chief of the Greenleaf tribe for many years before their birth, set out on a travel to meet other chiefs of the surrounding tribes. On one of those meetings Vanirr met the beautiful Nimwé. A female Viera of the Lake Warders. It was love at first sight. Her tribe agreed to letting her leave the tribe and move with Vanirr back to the Greenleaf tribe. In the years to follow they had a wonderful relationship. Vanirr proved himself to be a very succesfull chief and husband. After a year their first son, Dawn was born. Dawn was everything his father could ask for, and he felt his legacy was secured. Sadly Vanirr had not the luck to see his eldest son grow up as there were small conflicts between a few tribes. He was needed at the borders of their territory. Those conflicts were of minor importance and after two years Vanirr returned home. He changed a little, the fact that he had to wage war against his own people was troubling him. He sought comfort in alcoholic beverages, dissappointing Nimwé. She barely recognised her husband anymore and cursed the day he decided to intervene in the tribal conflicts. Yet there was still love between them. On one of his more sober days she announced to him that she was pregant again.
Tumblr media
Vanirr was very happy, and hoping for another strong son, like Dawn. Fate was cruel, their second son was born, but Nimwé died shortly after giving birth to Sequoia. Vanirr was furious and wanted to kill the baby, blaming the little Sequoia for the death of his mother. It was one of the tribe healers, Lily (Ren's mother) who intervened, preventing Vanirr from doing something as stupid as killing his own son. The tribe said goodbye to Nimwé. Dark days for the tribe were ahead. Vanirr sought more and more refuge in drinking, and living a derailed life.
Sequoia proved himself to be a quite resilient Viera. Often found comfort in the company of his brother Dawn who stood up many time for his little brother. Both boys enjoyed the "respect" from other boys in the tribe by being the sons of the chief. Sequoia himself turned out to be quite a caring Viera and developped a rare quality of sensing lonely vieras in the tribe. This is how he met his friends: Koori, Kaen. Twin brothers and orphans. They often hung around the village causing some amok or just being "them". At first they found it funny to tease and pester Sequoia a little bit, but when they found themselves in a really dire situation, it was Sequoia who jumped in their defense. Since that day they have been unseparatedly friends.
Tumblr media
Shortly after, Sequoia met Ren. A young viera who was often bullied because of his "strange name". Ren was not a "pure viera". Despite looking as Viera as a Viera can look. Ren was the son of Lily and Naoko Kimura. Naoko was a Hingan merchant, and a viera of an old family that once left the Range and explored the world.
If there was one thing that Sequoia hated, then it was bullies. He had his reasons for that. Ren was first reluctant, having trust issues with people and thinking Sequoia had maybe other motives. It took a while before Ren got along with Sequoia. But more and more they hung out, Ren got introduced to Koori and Kaen, and also Sequoia's brother Dawn. This was the beginning of a very special friendship. More and more, the two boys enjoyed the company of each other and they develloped a very close friendship, a friendship that even turned into love unbeknownst to each other.
Tumblr media
Behind the closed doors of their home Sequoia's life was anything but happy. Hated by his father Sequoia was often the victim of his father's aggresive behavior and more then once he got beaten or abused. Vanirr often was drunk and did not even saw or listened to reason. In this matter Sequoia stood often alone because for long time Dawn was not there, because of his training as Woodwarder. The Council of Elders were all friends of Vanirr and they did not listen to the young Sequoia. Sequoia often had to endure the abuse by his father. He sometimes shared the burdens of that with his close friends but often kept it just quiet and made up excuses for injuries.
Ren, Koori and Kaen wanted to do something about it, but being seen as outcasts in the tribe they could not reach out to the Elders. Koori and Kaen were orphans and had "weird colored fur" and Ren was the "stranger". Not many Vieras in the Greenleaf tribe were fond of helping them. Ren's mother Lily, was the village healer and often helped Sequoia with his bruises and injuries. One day however Sequoia was not seen for a few days. Thats when Ren, and KK decided to reach out to Dawn at the Training Grounds and inform Dawn of what was going on. Dawn rushed home and found Sequoia on the floor, bleeding and beat up.
Tumblr media
Dawn who was otherwise a calm and very composed Viera lashed out at their father with the intention of killing the drunk Chief. Sequoia intervened because he understood the consequences. Dawn would not only be accused of patricide, but also of murdering the chief. Even if it would have been justified. He managed to calm his older brother. But Vanirr was enraged and shocked by Dawn's reaction.
Tumblr media
Not wanting to lash out to Dawn, because Dawn was his favorite son, he just yelled that this day, this decision to attack his father was his biggest mistake. Normally the Tribal Law dictates that any attempt on the chief's life is punishable by death. Vanirr however had lack of certain traditions and kept this quiet. Instead he banished Dawn from the Greenleaf tribe. Dawn had a hard time accepting this fate. Because it would mean having to leave his brother behind.
He made a promise and threat to his father however. If Vanirr were to ever touch or lay a finger on Sequoia again, he would return and kill him. Vanirr laughed it away. Sequoia felt lost. Dawn took Sequoia outside to a quiet place and promised that he would do everything he could to keep his little brother safe.
During his training as Woodwarder, Dawn had met a few curious male Vieras who went by the name of Akane and Ash. Akane was a mage and oversaw the training parcours with some illusions to confuse the trainees, training their perception and intelligence. Ash was the battle master and trained the boys in the martial arts. Dawn became good friends with Ash. Dawn reached out to Ash this time to tell him of what Vanirr decided. Ash promised to Dawn to keep an eye over Sequoia and his friends. Ash and Akane, being exiled from their own tribe themselves moved in with the Greenleaf tribe and found their way to Sequoia, Ren Koori and Kaen. Akane and Ash also were couple, and were a few years older. They came up with the idea of founding a "secret gathering". They found a nice spot in the woods, secluded and built a treehouse there. For Ash and Akane it was a home, but also a refuge for Sequoia and his friends, and a place were Dawn could visit his little brother.
Thus the Treehouse Club was founded. In the years that followed Sequoia somehow found himself in better situation and his father did not seem to care about his whereabouts. Sequoia and Ren's friendship further developped more. And the Threehouse Club even expanded a little bit with two more members over time. Faunus a very shy and younger Viera who often spent time on his own in the woods or with the healers taking care of the plants and flowers. And Dorian, a wandering Rava Viera who had to leave the Golmoran Jungle in search for a new home because a forest fire destroyed his home. Dorian wandered a little bit in a wrong direction and found himself in the Range. Yet all found friendship and acceptance within this mini tribe called the "Threehouse Tribe".
Tumblr media
Then misfortune struck again. His best friend Ren, had some ill news. Ren's father Naoko had to undertake a long travel to Hingashi. He had some trade business there and also wanted Ren to meet his grandfather. It was bad news, it struck hard. Especially since Vanirr also made it clear that he expected Sequoia to find a partner to marry after he completed his Woodwarder training (which was soon about to start as well).
But, Sequoia understood the situation, be it with a little bit of heartache. It was an important journey for Ren. The Kimura family as Ren had told him had some influence at the Bakufu (similar to the Japanese Shogunate) in Kugane due to being skilled samurais or merchants. The two boys said their goodbyes and reminded each other that they will see one another very soon again. And when they do they would have more stories to share.
Little did they know that, this day was a day that they both learn that life doesnt always go the way they think it goes, and for both boys tragedy awaited, lurking in the shadows.
(What happened to Ren is for another story)
Tumblr media
Sequoia shortly after Ren's departure started his training as Wood Warder, under personal supervision of Ash who became his training buddy. The training was hard and cruel, mainly because Vanirr found it occasionaly fun to meddle in the course and make it exceptionally difficult for Sequoia, all in a drunk whim.
Sequoia however was even more resilient then he ever was, and grow as a Viera. Displaying quite impressive physical strength and intelligence. He finished his trained with brio and got accepted in the company of the other Wood Warders.
At that time his father was more often distracted with outside rumors. There was mentions and rumors of a threat. The Garlean Empire had invaded Dalmasca and progressed far through the land, coming close to the borders of the Range. Vanirr was suddenly concerned. The Greenleaf tribe lived close to the borders in the north, close to Dalmasca. What shortly followed was a catastrophe.
Tumblr media
The war indeed reached the forests of the Skatay Range and many tribes found themselves in sudden need of taking up arms and uniting in defending the homeland. Even the Greenleaf tribe.
Dawn rushed as fast as he could back to his former tribe and searched for Sequoia, but it was already late. The fires of war had reached their territory. It was chaos.
Vanirr tried to lead the tribe into battle but because of his constant drunk nature one can take "tried" very literal. He abandoned his tribe and fled. It was Dawn and Sequoia who both took up the arms and tried to get as much as possible Vieras into safety trying to fend of the Garleans so that women and children could flee.
When they saw that they were on the losing hand and no match for the magitek weapons of the Garleans Dawn and Sequoia had to take a hard decision. Die or survive. Both brothers chose the latter. And made it their top priority to find , Ren's remaining family (Lily and Ren's sisters Natsumi and Yumi) and their friends (Treehouse club). This was no easy task. In between the fires, the bullets, the bombings, the war machina, they searched, and searched, and searched.
Dawn found Ren's family, alive and well. Sequoia found the other boys.
But their home was destroyed, the forest was crying, the flames raging. What mattered now was survival. But they all suddenly realised that with one fateful event a life can be over, just like that. And not one of them ever did anything in their lives that they actually dreamed of doing. All they had known was duty.
Dorian who knew a bit of the world proposed to take his lover Faunus with him to Thavnair, where they wanted to study alchemy and the art of dancing.
Akane expressed that he always wanted to see Hingashi. Ash only nodded and agreed to following his husband.
Koori and Kaen were a bit lost, being young still they had seen horrors, but they also fought very fiercely in the defense of their homes. they somehow worked best as duo and were exceptionally skilled with blades. Yet there they stood, defeated and looking at how the fire consumed the forest.
It was in that moment that they looked to Sequoia and reminded him of Ren. You have a promise to keep, Sequoia. Why not leave this pile of firewood now and set out to seek Ren? They asked. Sequoia seemed to find courage in those words and looked at his brother.
Dawn looked back and smiled. Ren is your destiny, little brother. Its up to you now "chief". Sequoia was visibly blushing. He asked Dawn what he would do? Thats where Dawn told Sequoia he would say his goodbyes and take Ren's family to safety, the true duty of a Woodwarder is to protect. And that was what he would do.
One day they would all be reunited again. But not today, today it was time to set out and survive.
Sequoia left the Range with Koori and Kaen with the goal to find Ren.
Dawn left with Ren's mother and sisters to keep them safe and find a place to live in peace till they can be reunited once again.

Hi cnan u tell us more about the beautiful women from uour last post
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
YES!!! these are my ocs for this Not otome game that i will never make lol—
so rather than playing as a guy going after multiple girls, it follows the story of one guy pining after one girl— and multiple girls he has to max out friendship with in order to get closer to her. unfortunately all of these girls have their own feelings for/about her that need to be sorted out. eventually he understands that he and the other girls (who have lowkey been getting in his way this whole time) are part of a system and they are trying to keep the two of them apart in order to protect themselves and the endings change based on what he decides.
here are two relationship charts— it's very hard to describe the full thing but the first one is first impressions and the second is how their relationships sort of progress
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ANYWAY... aurela (the pink one, introduced to the protagonist as "ruby") is really strict about rules and invests most of her time and effort into her studies. she's also extremely hotheaded and out of touch with her emotions— hence her very obvious crush on amanda (the brown haired one).
um as per visual novel conventions, there are a bunch of endings and only 2 (technically 3 but not quite) end with an amarela date and they are....
1) ruby end: aurela becomes the new host and she asks amanda out. she changes their appearance to match hers in the inner world better in the final cutscene.
2) plural end: the protagonist chooses not to integrate and they all coexist, every alter has their own relationship with amanda; aurela's is romantic. they collectively decide to change their appearance to reflect all of themselves better in the final cutscene.
3) integration end: the protagonist chooses to reintegrate everyone and after they feel ready, they ask amanda out.

Hey I notice you made a wh new oc call adrain
1.why do he only like lulu
2. What his relationship chart
AHHH SORRY FOR THE LATE REPLY!! i’ve been feeling really burnt out lately and stopped being active for awhile,,
I’m gonna ramble for a bit,, so i’m sorry in advance haha
to answer your questions:
1) The reason why Adrien likes Lulu so much is because they’re actually really good childhood friends! Adrien has developed a VERY intense crush on her since the first day they met but Lulu is really clueless about it.
2)
Tumblr media
Finally made a relationship chart for him!
He mostly puts up a nice and kind demeanor to everyone in the neighborhood to make Lulu happy but he secretly shows disdain to Julie when no one is looking,, He sees her as competition for Lulu’s attention and status as her best friend.
- Julie doesn’t like his attitude and finds him rude but doesn’t entirely hate him due to Adrien being Lulu’s childhood friend (also Julie is just too nice in general)
- Wally and Barnaby are unaware of Adrien’s hidden dislike for them
-Adrien is “fine” with everyone else but favors Lulu’s friendship the most

Tell me your oc lore pls 🥺
WAUGHHHHHHHH i have never properly written anything down, my poor partner put a channel in their server where i rant, to uh explain lyman he's some sort of weird lizard-horse hybrid thing?? [its a species that exists in his universe ] , he has a FUCKED up life that when i get to posting lymantria's despair [webcomic i'm concidering making if art block doesn't GET me again.] will be detailed there as lyman's life and experinces mirror mine and my personal traumas, you however asked for oc lore and not...evreything wrong with me so!! at some point in his youth he meets jewel who is a parasite, and uhh [given lyman's world is just beastars but i let bugs exist] her species faces a lot of discrimination ehaeh!! eventually the two move in together and lyman.....lets jewel kill him it is a fucked up scene i'd have to write at some point due to lyman's growing suicidal ideation and jewel's nature as a parasite. lyman does NOT die however and is shoved into his peacekeeper job and this is the 2nd version of lyman the uh,, fnc oc who's in some weird homoerotic relationship with scarab lyman, vent-sona who gets killed by jewel is his own version..guy?? since lyman has dissasociative ammnesia and does not recall his mortal life outside of weird wasp related nighmares,
Tumblr media
these are ,,,,, lyman and mortal lyman [who's nickname is ruby and if i ..ever refer to him as ruby i mean pre-peacekeeper pre-death lyman] so ,,,,,, this is the part of lyman's story ive covered the most, its almost like 2am for me so i might skip over things , the #lymanlore tag is where i regularly post his content and story so check there!! but yeah he gets put in the therapist job, hates it..meets scarab, uhh realizes he has a weird thing for bug people now [this has to do with jewel] and starts to clear scarab's tracks for him, eventually slowburning into a romantic relationship and fufilling the reason i even made lyman in th first place,,, to kiss that beetle. his story then follows the events of fnc execpt he's just..there in the background likley dissasociating , and him and scrabs have a falling out which is best detailed in this fucking discord infodump
Tumblr media Tumblr media
evreyone say thank you pixi for giving me a place to host my ill thoughts. so while scarab is stuck in gay baby jail lyman has to fill in for his auditor role..expeshally since he's not doing well after the falling out with his partner.. so he runs off to the world he recalls being from and runs into jewel again, they rekindle their friendship despite lyman hardly remembering shit about her [aside from the reacurring and increasingly vivid nightmares he'd been having] , and since jewel's living situation sucks because ,,,,,paracite speciesism lyman just..plucks her up and lets her live in his tavern [he's lonley and stupid..] whenever the fuck scrabs finally returns from gay baby jail he just has to deal with jewel's new presence and lyman is trying to make sure both the bugs he has a strong emotional attachment to play niceys and i throw them in a sims save because i think they're funny.......heres a shitty ship chart i drew up one night
Tumblr media
i,,,,,,suck at explaining things heres a bunch of stupid discord screenshots of useless info i scrawled in the sacred server
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media

A Case of You by @epitomereally
Harry/Draco (2022, Explicit, 97k)
Draco was doing just fine working as an Unspeakable in Paris, hanging out with his living and ghostly pals, inventing new spells, and definitely not thinking about Potter. Then, Lucius just had to break out of prison and turn his world upside down. Now, Draco has to return to England, where he is forced to confront how family ties bind us—and one infuriatingly fit Harry Potter.
Potter grinned up at him, a flash of quicksilver. This wasn’t at all like Draco ever thought this would be like: Potter thinking he was good, Potter smiling at him, Potter laying his hand gently on him, Potter wanting him. It made him feel frantic and out of control. He didn’t know how to act at all; with Smith, it had been awful and desperate and mean. He suddenly felt, after Potter’s breakdown, that he couldn’t be awful or mean, not right now.
All hail the long fic king!!!! This 100k fic caught me completely off guard by how invested I felt in something this long (sadly not my usual these days) as Wireless got closed to wrapping up. It deserves a spotlight in my single recs for that feat alone but I also really really wanted to celebrate epitome’s first fic back in the fandom after 15 years (starting with a bang!!!) especially because I’ve seen her reccing many wonderful fics lately and it’s a thrill to have someone this talented around again! Before getting into it I also wanna link the amazing rec @romaine2424 did for this fic earlier this week, check it here!
Now, how could I resist this fic looking at those tags - case fic, break up/make up, Unspeakable Draco? Non-linear narrative? Blood magic? Joni Mitchell? Sign me up, please! I’m so so happy that I jumped right in because oh my goodness, what a delightful and thrilling ride this was! The way the author combines excellent plot with the slow unravel of Draco and Harry’s relationship is addictive and will keep you hooked from start to end, which is why I gotta say 97k felt shorter as I was devouring this. The tension building in both main plot and UST (hello casual sparring, this is every Drarry reader’s wet dream 🔥) is superb and a masterclass in anticipation while filling out the blanks about their complicated past with a dual narrative strategy.
I couldn’t decide which timeline I was more invested in, I just wanted to learn everything about this competent, bossy and mysterious Harry, so edgy 🤤 and this lovely redeemed Draco, fierce, stubborn, earnest, a great friend who’s learned how to own his life and decisions. Their voices are excellent, the chemistry is off the charts and absolutely scorching, I love how they work together on the case while dancing around their feelings, trying not to let it affect the investigation and team dynamics. Beyond the side relationships - in my opinion one of the major highlights in this fic, kudos to all those charming, nuanced and flawed characters - the Paris landscape and general descriptions make the fic so much more immersive! Draco’s life abroad jumps to life in the tiniest aesthetic details and I immediately fell in love with the OCs, not to mention Lucius’ plot line and house elves supremacy as a bonus! They’re so creative and charming, I had a lot of fun with these side stories.
On a separate note, I really really loved this take on break up/make up Drarry. Not only we got to see their Auror training and how their tentative friendship started fresh out of school, I think the author gave their relationship a very much appreciated depth and nuance throughout the years, showing why being pulled apart helped them grow more confident and allowed them to establish healthier relationships, and to learn how to trust each other in order to be properly together. No one’s at fault here, it just wasn’t the right time as both characters had to mature and become the men they are right now. It was an engaging and really refreshing approach to the whole enemies to lovers dynamic while keeping the tension very much alive and firing sparks, and I loved every minute of it!
Exciting plot, ultimate UST, masterful character building, delicious smut, and a heartwarming and earned happy ending. This is everything Drarry fans are looking for and some, a really well-crafted long fic that deserves all the love and appreciation for all it has accomplished. What are you waiting for? Happy readings!

a mess of an oc relationship chart for the main group. yay. =____= under the cut ^_^
Tumblr media
um. i think that's everyone in this general. circle.
maitiu is the main character. he and zara grew up together in a town along the coastline. after major flooding, they move further inland, and in with maitiu's older cousin, tonia, and her wife (lena), and lena's younger sibling (gabi).
zara is maitiu's best friend, and she regards him as a brother. not pictured above are her friendships with vasko and kae (chart got too cramped in that top section).
gabi is the one to introduce zara and maitiu to vasko. vasko and gabi have been friends since they were little, and both of them are quick to accept zara and maitiu as friends
jaiden and kae are two siblings who move into town later in the story, due to various mysterious circumstances. yay. maitiu quickly strikes up a friendship (and later, more :)) with jaiden. after finding their way into town, jaiden and kae find work with molly, a woman running the local. um. pharmacy? not the right word.
kae takes a while to warm up to the others, but she eventually befriends gabi, who brings her further into the group of friends.
vasko does not like jaiden. he could not give you a reason why, beyond that he finds him annoying. this causes some occasional tensions with maitiu. kae doesn't seem to mind his beef with her brother.
ivor is vasko's older brother, and jaiden befriends him after they both get hired to help renovate the old school house in town. this is also where they meet donovan, who is one of molly's friends.
