Interesting (to me at least) that the 40K universe's most highly educated kleptomaniac Trazyn the Infinite seems to be interested in every galactic civilization except his own. Unless I am forgetting something, he doesn't actually collect other necrons or their stuff (Orikan being the exception but that's more personal than professional). Sure there's definitely political reasons. I don't think the triarchy would appreciate it if he tried putting Szarekh in a pokeball tesseract labyrinth. But iirc the thought never occurs to him the way it does with other races/factions/civs when he sees or meets their heavy hitters. He has lots of necrontyr and War in Heaven stuff, but modern necrons appear to hold no interest to him, despite being self-described as a person who collects everything.

I wonder if it's because he sees necron civilization as stagnant. It's boring to him. Maybe it has to do with holding a mirror to himself and his own condition that he isn't prepared for. Or the inherent bias that comes from seeing oneself as the "default" and therefor unnecessary to study. Also wondering if his attitude will change as the Silent King/Stormlord civil war ramps up, the same way the drama of the Horus Heresy made him actively interested in humanity. Idk, just something I find curious. A blind spot for our intrepid archaeovist.

#necrons #wh40k #trazyn the infinite #ghost does character rambles #idk i just find it curious #like even when he breaks into tombs about to be destroyed he only takes the old shit #orikan does not count trazyn definitely does not want him in an exhibit for “academic” purposes

I've seen when people write Reader and Ghost as Life and Death, Ghost is always Death while Reader is Life. Which is fine, no hate to them, but imagine with me: Life!Ghost and Death!Reader.

I know it sounds a little out there, but Ghost's entire job as a soldier is to help ensure people in his country are safe. He's fighting for Life.

Also like, who says Life can't kill? If we look into mythology, gods of death don't take people's souls, they just guide the souls to their respective afterlives. If anything, Life is the one guiding the circumstances that kill mortals while Death is the one who guides their souls to their resting places. Life is the one killing them.

And I know someone can say "Oh, but Ghost is gloomy and Life is supposed to sunshiney." Who says? I think both Reader and Ghost can be gloomy people together, in two different ways. Reader just appears out of the shadows, gently taking the dead soul via however they transport souls to afterlives while Ghost is his snarky self.

Imagine, an enemy soldier seeing Ghost corner them in a battlefield and is like "Have you come to take me, Death?"

And Ghost just responds, "I'm Life, actually. They're Death."

And as the enemy soldier turns to face Reader who walks out of the shadows that had encased them, Ghost stabs the enemy soldier. And when they're dead, Reader silently takes them to their designated afterlife.

I don't know if any of this actually made sense to anyone except for me. But if you see the vision, I'm glad.

i love you OCs who are ridiculously overpowered. i love you OCs who romance every canon character possible. i love you OCs who are related to the main character. i love you OCs who don't have a tragic backstory. i love you OCs who were created for the sole purpose of railing a very specific character. i love you OCs who break the narrative. i love you OCs who have ever been called Mary Sue. i love you OCs who are like you but not you but still you. i love you OCs who make their skill and beauty look effortless. i love you OCs

#original character #in my OC feels tonight #because my girl Renge is almost a year old now and thinking about how she evolved and still does #how she's a ghost of older OCs but also not and like me but also not and #she's a baby she's my meow meow she's the goddess i will never be #all the talks with friends about their OCs #listening to their stories and swooing over arts of them #and i feel many people are still held back by making their own OCs because they fear someone will laugh at them #or call them this Mary Sue bs which i will hold a presentation on why it's the fucking worst #don't worry bby i will fight everyone for you who makes you feel bad about your OCs #pingpong brain going brrrr i could ramble forever #lale.txt

one of my favourite tropes is an episode made up of different characters all telling the same story and each one is more ridiculous and biased than the last. like character a will be telling it and character b will either be like an asshole or admiring character a. and then character b will tell it and they'll not only make character a an asshole but they'll make themselves practically an angel.

#sami rambles #its just such a genius trope #bc it shouldn't work its the same story it should be boring but its not! its just funny bc u get to know more about the characters #and the relationships and i love shit like that #anyway i just watched thomas' death episode of ghosts. does this trope to perfection.

How about c!Redd, c!Guts, or c!Krow for the character bingo if you’d like! Or Branzy or Zam if you wanna do some lifestealers instead!

i love a challenge and am now gonna do all of them :3

(done with the utmost love, i'm very fond of all of these characters actually <3 i just honed it to base opinions)

in order: c!krow, c!red, c!guts, branzy, zam

((i will say that i haven't watched c!red or c!guts' povs, which is why i lack opinions on them. i've been meaning to and then i got dragged into being hopelessly fixated on lifesteal pfvdfnjk; and for the fact like 98% of what i've written recently have been branzy-centric fics that actually include zam a Lot. so. you've handed me my blorbos on a platter and asked for opinions pdfvfndjk))

#ask a ghost #asker: oneformercy #i love giving opinions and i could talk forever and ever about these Creatures #i've been wanting to write some fics with focus on characters that are less popular/common (especially for outsiders)#and c!guts was actually on my list for that bc i think they're really cool and from what i heard of their backstory it'd be fun #HONESTLY this bingo does not do my opinions justice because i have so many thoughts about all of them.#i mean i have read your ramblings about c!redd and you're like 99% of the reason i want to watch his pov...#he's such a guy.#(it's kinda funny you can tell who i watch the most based on how many of the boxes got ticked)#OK enough rambling lol #i will never claim to be an expert on these guys pfvnjfdk i know c!apo the best (watched his pov like three times through)

Today in “Newsies is not by any means a problematic fandom but there are people choosing the most batshit hills to die on” we have… people gatekeeping the word cowboy.

Absolutely lovely, guys.

#I don’t give a shit if livesies Jack doesn’t get called cowboy #he’s MY cowboy fuck you #but more seriously I’m just wondering. why. why is this a thing you care so much about.#it literally does not matter if livesies fans are calling their blorbo a cowboy or not. literally not at all.#not to mention that. a lot of people are just fans of both and have kinda combined the character traits. like that’s not uncommon.#Jack in any fic I write is both a cowboy AND an artist btw because why NOT #idk I’m just rambling a bit and also venting I guess #I think that the fact that this fandom ISNT problematic makes the little discourse piss me off more actually #like I’m used to shipping wars or whatever but not whatever this is #ghost haunts posts

But seriously necrons are queer AF...

I basically can't shut up about necrons and how they really lend themselves to queer theory/queer interpretation and I want to dive into that a little. I am not An Intellectual by any means, so someone else could definitely do this better, but an imperfect hero is better than none (there's a joke about Trazyn on Cadia here but I'm too lazy to flesh it out).

I'm more interested in how a) Queer Theory is all about challenging the default cishet lens through which the majority of media is created/analyzed/consumed and b) the fact that necron existence is basically 12 Queer Metaphors in an Trenchcoat

Necrons come to the table raising some interesting narrative questions: how does a being exist without a soul? What even IS a soul? What is mortality? How does all of that relate to the mind and to the body?

Biotransference, when you get right down to it, took the three basic parts of what we might think of as "the self" (mind, body, soul) and divided them. The soul vanished, while the body and mind remained, but the relationship between them was completely recontextualized. So all those big questions above can only be answered in that context. This ties so beautifully into themes of queer experience because queerness also invites a reimagining of the spirit/mind/body relationship. How the body relates to identity and vice versa. How that combination relates to other people. Any singular "default" answer of x body=y identity=z mental state does not exist for necrons. How can it when each individual deals with their own existence in such varying ways? From denial to distraction to euphoric acceptance, and each individual's character is largely defined by that choice.

This can be more explicitly LQBTQ-themed (my kingdom for a story about Anathrosis, the canonically trans dynasty Matriarch) or metaphorical. It can dwell on inner conflict or external conflicts. This separation was not something they chose, but it is a fundamental fact of their existence. You basically have no choice but to tell queer stories with necrons if you want to explore their nature/characters in any depth.

Tl;dr all the space robots are gay and also disasters and sorry that's just canon

#necrons #necron #warhammer 40k #queer theory i guess #ghost does character rambles #but like all the characters at once #I'm leveling up #Anathrosis novel when?#i just think they're neat #getting my doctorate in Gay Robots

the eyes as the window to the soul? nah, fuck that, i’m talking MUSIC is the ultimate window of a character’s soul

#rex rambles #in a writing mood; thinking about words and music and the gravitas of the texture of music #and how that is woven into the character's fabric of being #(i must be projecting bc i know my music tells a lot about me- or so i think it does anyways)#(in the case where i just stop existing as a real person and i live my life as a ghost)#(at least my music picks will endure)

Thinking about chosen ones in worlds where destiny and fate and chosen ones is true. Who chooses them? Can they object, change the path of destiny unconsciously? At what point in one's life do they become a chosen one? Is it random? At birth? After one proves themself to be "worthy," whatever that means?

I'm thinking about characters who so desperately want to be the chosen one. Who would go to great lengths to become one, who knows that right now, they're normal, but if they are exceptional enough, interesting enough, powerful enough, enough enough enough, the hands of fate might reach out and crown them chosen.

#this is about a possible motw version of my oc Chami #throughout the campaign she would in this idea change from the pararomantic playbook (but without the romantic bit #as her guide would be her ghost dad)#to the chosen one playbook #what steps would she take #and does she even know how this works #what is required or desired by whatever fate commanding forces are out there #to be a chosen one #amber rambles #writing #creative writing #the chosen one #concepts #destiny #fate #characters

me writing stuff in my timeline like, are dr warren and norman a little too evil? is this too black and white? too cartoony?

me looking over my other villains/antagonists (ock, mac, etc.) who are generally complex in their morals while still being assholes or bad people: i think I'm good actually,

#sometimes a bad guy can just be a bad guy and that's good enough #tbf norman has some moderately complex motivations for certain facets of the plot he's involved in #but ultimately is still an evil capitalist shithead lol #nadia rambles #arghwrites #rather he be mustache twirling evil than 'omg i'm so sorry the devil made me do it 🥺' tho #i have plenty of villains on my list who aren't evil and i have a couple who just like murder #(the former applying to ppl like the shocker and the latter applying to ppl like cletus or francine (electro))#i do have a List Of Villains btw 😂 some of them stolen from other superheroes like DD or iron man but 99% from spidey #i think ghost and the black tarantula are actually the only non spidey chars on the list actually... well. does fisk count?#i guess peter and matt just share a lot of random characters though. i mean hell. Liz and Foggy dated!#peter's fought the black tarantula anyway #ghost i think is an avengers/ant man/iron man character (and obvs was in A-M & The Wasp)#i just think they're neat--sorry he i forgot. she in the movie tbf. I'm making them a they to match their incorporeality #idk if I'll actually USE them though but for a later post-unstable molecule suit i think they'd be a good choice #wait spidey's fought ghost in ASM hasn't he? there's a Ramos cover.

⤷ ✧ 𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐲

order 84 | Scenario | Cater, Jade, Idia, Silver | gender neutral

❀ NOTE: PRETTY BOYS AHHHH, I wonder if all the characters are canonically attractive or are some characters like Ace considered mid?

“Don’t take this the wrong way, but you’re so…”

➺ Cater Diamond

There’s a reason why Cater has so many followers on MagiCam. It’s because he has a cute face!! You’re not sure if he’s aware but he just has to be.

He does these tiny things like brushing the hair out of his face or slightly turning his head when he laughs. You didn’t really realize how pretty he was for a while. Sure, you got nervous just staring at him but now you can’t even look him in the eye.

“Don’t take this the wrong way, but you’re so hot…”

He blinked for a moment. He was in the middle of drying his hair when you said that. All he could think is “Oh wow?” He noticed that you’ve been staring at him so intensely for the past few days— maybe weeks.

But you said it straight to his face? He thought he misheard you at first but you definitely said that.

“Wow, I didn’t know you fancied me that way MC!” Admittedly it did fluster him, he was flattering in the best way possible.

“Don’t get it twisted, it’s not in the way you’re thinking!”

You’re in denial.

⊱Jade Leech

He has that certain look to him. It’s different than Floyd even though they’re identical twins. Maybe he’s not aware how MMMMMMM he is but he has to.

Just the way he looks at you can get you weak on the floor. His eyes… You noticed how his eyes squint ever so slightly when he’s focused. He’s calm under any circumstances yet so amusing in his own way. He’s the type of person you’d want to follow around just for the fun of it. And in his own way… he’s just so damn cute too.

“Don’t take this the wrong way, but you’re so cute…”

He quickly turned his head to stare at you. He’s not sure what you mean or why. It was so out of the blue. You’ve been stalking him for a while. Of course he knew and allowed it and treated it as if it was normal.

“Pardon? In what way am I… cute?” He turned his head curiously.

“Cute!” You said again.

He wasn’t sure how to feel, the last time someone called him cute was when he was a little kid. Most people would think of Jade as alluring or handsome, cute is something he hasn’t heard in a while.

“If you’re talking about my appearance, you must think Floyd is cute as well.” He says while smiling at you.

“Eh I guess so. But he’s not as cute as you.”

He moved closer, “Tell me, what else do you think of me?”

You put your hands out in front of you, as if to say stop. “Why do you have to be so close..?!”

*ੈ Idia Shroud

It’s already canon that Idia is very attractive from the character archives book and the ghost marriage event while being complete oblivious. He’s charming in his own way.

It’s hard to believe he’s so oblivious to his good looks. His smile is nerdy yet… attractive. His personality is rough but that’s what makes him so fun. Teasing someone like him is hilarious.

“Don’t take this the wrong way, but you’re so hot.”

He immediately cranked his head your direction with a baffled expression. He shook his head and let out an irritated squeal.

“Wh-who says stuff like that to somebody’s face?! Online I get it but this is IRL! Why does someone like you even think that?”

He just gets really flustered and ends up rambling about how it doesn’t make sense. But when he looks back on it, it gives him an ego boost for a few minutes and then he’s embarrassed because— it makes him happy that you think of him that way.

-ˋˏ Silver

Unintentional or not, Silver has been seeing you around a lot. He doesn’t think much of it since you’re in the same school so it’s not anything crazy but when he does see you, you’re always staring at him with this… funny expression.

Did he do something wrong? He tries to wave at you when he can but as soon as he turns his head you run away or start acting like you weren’t the one staring first.

But what were you suppose to do? Whenever you saw him, all your attention was diverted to his gentle yet sharp expression. His resting face was already so deadly, you couldn’t imagine if he were to smile.

“Don’t take this the wrong way, but you’re so pretty…”

He froze with a puzzled look on his face. This was one of the times you actually started a conversation with him instead of staring and running away and you say something so flirtatious?

“Ah…” He blinked as you gazed into his eyes nervously, “Thank you I suppose.” But in what way was he suppose to take that?

During an interview, the manor guests suddenly get a question about you.

this is def an experimental format!! i got this idea while reading the character letters. in the POV of an unknown interviewer (not reader). reader uses they/them.

🔗⚰️📰🔮❤️‍🩹💉🌪️✂️🍀🩰🔫🪡🤹🧲🦋🐍

Q. Could you describe your relationship with (Y/N)?

🔗 Ada - "Yes, that's my lover. I would say our relationship falls within the typical scope of that sort of thing. Of course, I believe we share something special, but everyone does when they're in love, don't they?" She covers all her bases in one decisive breath, leaving little room for me to comment.

⚰️ Aesop sits perfectly upright, fingers threaded at his knees. His eyes drift to the side and he seems to begin speaking mid-thought. "I had... cautioned myself not to upset their perception of me," he explains. "But they pried, and stayed, regardless of what they found... For that, I'm grateful."

📰 Alice has kept a sharp eye on me the entire time, but it's at this question that she drops the formalities. "I wasn't aware you would be prying into my personal affairs. Where did you learn that name?" Her frankness pins me in place. For some reason, I end up apologizing.

🔮 Eli can't help a sheepish smile from blooming across his face. "Well, truthfully... I don't use this term lightly, but they might be the love of my life." He has been consistently grounded with his responses, so I'm surprised to catch him flustered, however subtle it is. Personally, I'm touched.

❤️‍🩹 Emil considers for a moment. He doesn't meet me in the eye, instead pinning his gaze on nowhere in particular. A faint smile ghosts his lips. After a while, he answers, simply, "Safe."

💉 Emily's hands are folded neatly on her lap. At the mention of that name, her shoulders tense, but she otherwise maintains her composure. "Someone I trust." Her answer is vague and cautious, but acceptable. I'll try to uncover a deeper meaning behind that 'trust'.

🌪️ Ithaqua - "Mine." He is curt and to the point. Yours? I echo, hoping he'll elaborate. His head tilts to the side, and while I can't see the face behind his mask, a sense of dread suddenly overcomes me. I decide not to press further.

✂️ Jack stretches out his hand of blades, flexing each finger in front of him. I can't deny the cold sweat that drips down my spine just by being in his presence. "May I respond with a question of my own?" he says to me. "Suppose a butterfly loses its way, and winds up caught in a spider's web. Wouldn't you agree that the more it writhes and struggles, the more exhilarated the spider becomes?" I don't have the courage to hear out the rest of this analogy.

🍀 Lucky - "I've always been known as a pretty lucky guy, but the luckiest day of my life was when I met them! I remember it was the—" He drags me down a long-winded story about their life together. I get the idea. Eventually I'm forced to cut him off.

🩰 Margaretha twirls a curl of hair, a meek blush dusting her cheeks. "Have you ever been in love before? You're never prepared for the magic of it all. I feel a new rush with them everyday. I know, realistically, all good things come to an end, so I tried to remind myself to expect the worst, but they've proven over and over that... I'll never feel safer than in their arms." After rambling for some time, a look of surprise flashes across her face. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to go off like that. Oh, but I've just never met someone who feels so much like true love before."

🔫 Martha doesn't miss a beat. "Sorry, I don't know anyone by that name." I look down to double-check the name written in her file. Her watchful gaze follows my line of sight. Are you sure? I try. "Must've been some confusion somewhere," she insists. The next day, I realize all my files on her and (Y/N) have gone missing.

🪡 Matthias - "Wh-What?" he starts, but keeps going before I can repeat the question. "Oh, uh, an ally, I guess." Well, I gathered that much. When I press for more details, his head sinks low, fingers grasping at the armrest. "I don't know what they saw in me. Was it out of pity?"

🤹 Mike's eyes light up and he blinds me with a contagious smile. "(Y/N)'s a sneaky one, and I mean it—they've got me under the trickiest spell of all. Guess what happens every time I think about them?" Egged on by his grin, I take the bait. You get lovesick? I guess. Suddenly, he tosses a handful of butterfly glitter in my face. "I get butterflies!" Very funny, I sigh, exasperated with these carnies. Why did he have that on hand in the first place?

🧲 Norton leans back in his chair, scowling. "What's that got to do with anything?" He snaps a couple times in my face, urging me to "stay on topic." It's hard to say if this question struck a nerve, as he's been uncooperative for most of this interview, but my suspicions point me to prod further. After all, it'd have been much easier if he just said he didn't know them.

🦋 Vera's face contorts into a leery, hostile glower. "Why do you ask that?" Before I can say anything to mitigate the rising tension, she catches herself, and her expression softens slightly. "I'm sorry. That's... someone quite dear to me, so your question took me by surprise."

🐍 Yidhra's follower goes pale, clearly unnerved. "She won't answer that," she tells me through shallow breaths. "Th-This isn't my place to say, but I'd advise you not to involve yourself with that person." As if on cue, I get a sensation I can only describe as a hand slowly wrapping around my neck. It disappears when I move to scratch it. Must've been my imagination.

Part 2
