Thank you for the tag @alinelie! This was fun and super cute!
Two OCs. Two bags. One bad attitude.
Let's go:
what's in my oc's bag? (picrew) vessel
Gideon and Sasha
Tumblr media
Sasha: Why do people need to know? What's in YOUR bag, huh?
Gideon: Calm down. It's supposed to be for fun. Do you want to play or not?
Sasha: Fine. You first.
Gideon: I don't normally carry a bag. Pretty much everything I need to do can be done digitally. But sometimes, if I am going to be offsite or there's a conference, I have this:
Tumblr media
A Tom Ford leather messenger bag, Prada black leather gloves, Loro Piana vicuña scarf, Mont Blanc pen, an Hermès handkerchief, some tissues, my phone, computer, earpods, some change for incidentals, mints, Augustinius Bader lipbalm, the keycards to my apartment and office, a pair of Cartier glasses-
Sasha: Vampires need glasses?
Gideon: -My eyes can get tired if I have been looking at a computer screen for too long- and some cold-pressed plasma fruit juice. Your turn, kitten.
Sasha: Don't call me that.
Gideon: My feisty kitten.
Sasha: F*ck you.
Gideon: See? So fierce!
Sasha: Ok. Welcome to MY bag:
Tumblr media
A Super Sim Saver Shopper reusable bag that Big Oso, the homeless guy near my house, gifted me for giving him a cigarette. My phone. It's about four years old and works perfectly fine, except that sometimes the sound cuts out randomly when you are playing music or on a phone call and the bottom right of the screen- like, the pixels are kinda f*cked up? It's OK, though.
Gideon: ...Do you want me to get you a new phone?
Sasha: This works fine.
Gideon: *Eye roll*
Sasha: I have my cigarettes and my zippo lighter.
Gideon: I thought you were trying to quit.
Sasha: I am, but it's wasteful to just throw it out! Then I have some change that some VERY GENEROUS customers left as tips for me at the diner. Next time I see them, I'm gonna-
Gideon: Um...Moving right along.
Sasha: This is an empty RadBull can. I think someone left it at the diner and we were closing and Hector told me to bus the damn table just as we were locking up, so I just tossed it into my bag. I should chuck it. Sh*t! I think it leaked a little! Oh, and this is the keycard to Gideon's. I keep it safe in this little pocket here.
Gideon: *Can't help grinning, pleased.*
Sasha: And these are some pretty leaves I saw on the ground at the Square in the Spice Quarter.
Gideon: That's really sweet, Sasha.
Sasha: Shut up! Now I'm going to smoke them! Oh, and there is a mechanical pencil and an eraser. Those are Tito's. I really should return them.
Gideon: That was fun, no?
Sasha: Wanna switch bags?
Gideon: [Chuckling] Do I get to keep you if I get the bag?
Sasha: Yeah...Whatever...*Finally cracks a rare smile.*

Novel Review: The Beginning After The End by TurtleMe
[26.12.20]
TITLE: The Beginning After The End
AUTHOR: TurtleMe
GENRE: Fantasy, Action, Comedy
TYPE: Web Novel
STATUS: Ongoing
SYNOPSIS:
    King Grey has unrivaled strength, wealth, and prestige in a world governed by martial ability. However, solitude lingers closely behind those with great power. Beneath the glamorous exterior of a powerful king lurks the shell of man, devoid of purpose and will.
    Reincarnated into a new world filled with magic and monsters, the king has a second chance to relive his life. Correcting the mistakes of his past will not be his only challenge, however. Underneath the peace and prosperity of the new world is an undercurrent threatening to destroy everything he has worked for, questioning his role and reason for being born again.
MY REVIEW:
    I started to read this novel after finishing the latest chapter of the Manhwa adaptation (although I had for a while this novel in my "plan to read" list) and I can say that it's different. The novel it's a lot darker and it's getting darker as the story progresses but to tell the truth I like both of them the way they are.
    I love how Art tries to improve himself, and I'm not talking about magic or fighting, but about his heart and how he is allowing people to hold significance to him although he knows that this will become his weakness. This also means that he has to become stronger than his past self since he has a lot of people to protect.
    All in all I recommend both the Manhwa and the novel because it's worth the time.
