fic recs

speaking of fanfic tropes, i was meaning to make a post about my absolutely favoritestest fics that live in my heart rent free.

in no particular order:

• you came at the brink of the end of the world

[AO3 link] - by anonymous

currently unfinished at 84k words and 21/? chapters

insane about this one. insane. it's beautifully written and scar calls grian trouble (best thing ever and nobody can convince me otherwise) and grian is a bundle of unknown magic and memory loss and trauma and it's just overall great. trust me.

this is from the official fic description:

[grian is falling from the sky, scar has more magic in his blood than he realized, and everyone else is so much better at seeing than they are]

tags include strangers to lovers, slow burn, hurt/comfort, memory alteration, pining, found family...

---

• and like an arrow, you broke me down.

[AO3 link] - by mochiwrites

currently unfinished at 81k words and 14/? chapters

traumatised sad birb grian gets thrown straight from the grief of 3rd life into the middle of last life. of course the first thing he does is get away from southlands (martyn???) and beelines for scar. there's confusion and emotional damage and man. it hits hard and it's wonderful and i absolutely love this one. also a beautifully written fic (yes i'll say this for all of these bECAUSE THEY ARE!)

tags include angst, hurt/comfort, PTSD, survivor guilt, protective scar/grian, touch-starved scar, and canon typical things like violence and referenced suicide

---

• closer to another shore

[AO3 link] - by remrose

currently finished at 56k words and 15/15 chapters

this one is sooo heartfelt and heartwrenching and sad and good and. it just makes you feel things. the way they delicately navigate around each other. the way it all goes up in flames anyway because they can't have it any other way. the way their steps keep bringing them inevitably back together.

scar and grian start as exes, with the circumstances of their break up murky and mysterious. and scar needs help, and grian offers himself.

there's a lot of pain and guilt and weakness (because how can they help but be weak towards each other?) it's wistful and tragic and hopeful. it's. it's something. (and did i mention it's beautifully written?) (it is) (just go read it really.)

(i'll also throw this bait at you. this bit. this: Grian was the absolute most infuriating man Scar knew. It was a shame he loved him to death.)

tags include soul bound, mating rituals, panic attacks and anxiety, hurt/comfort, chronic illness, insomnia, guilt, slow burn

---

• lost in the dark (he's got a heavy heart)

[AO3 link] - by definitelynotshouting

currently unfinished at 51k words and 9/? chapters

this one. THIS ONE. gosh where do i even begin. there are some deep, raw, self destructive feelings here. grian is a watcher in the sense that he is a creature that feeds on emotions, and he's dangerous and starving, and things have gone so very wrong. he just doesn't want to hurt anyone ever again. he's going to do everything he can to take himself out of the picture just to prevent that. (yeah this one is HEAVY.)

the writing. the writing. it's so so so beautiful. i know i keep gushing about the same thing for all of these fics, but. there's something so intricate and pretty in the way the words are woven in this one. i'm absolutelly entraced by the language. it's so pretty.

this is the hunger au if any of you are familiar with that name.

like i said, this one is a whole different kind of heavy. tags include angst, hurt/comfort, suicide attempt, starvation, eating disorders, body horror, trauma, self-harm, injury... (the light at the end of the tunnel is the recovery tag mkay)

------

if you go read any of them, make sure to look over AO3 ratings and warnings and tags for cw/tw stuff!

#ange rambles #fic recs #my absolute favourites #these are wonderful i promise #S tier

heyhey, its me... wenn du willst, tell me a fun fact about any of your special interests :D

+ picture of the moon I took for your convenience <3

Uhhh a pretty moon pic!! Been thinking about it occasionally in the little month it’s been sitting in my inbox <3

I’ve also thought long and hard about what fun fact I wanted to share, and I think I’ve finally found it. It’s a long one, so buckle up, but there’ll be pictures along the way!

It was obviously going to be about birds, bird ringing specifically (which is the catching, tagging, measuring and releasing of birds for scientific purposes, done by people with the required legal permission and knowledge to do so without harming the birds) — something I spend quite a lot of time doing <3

I’m actually going to talk about a very specific Great Tit (Parus major) that was caught last year. I sadly didn’t see it in person, but I’ve seen pictures of this bird and man, it’s bonkers.

In order for you to understand the absurdity, you’ll first need to know some basic bird anatomy. As I mentioned above, bird ringing includes the recording of information on each individual. This usually includes, amongst other things: measurements of wing, amount of fat and muscle, weight, and most importantly information on species, sex and age.

And here’s where it gets particularly nerdy. Whilst processing a bird, you will usually need to examine the feathers to identify species, age and/or sex. This is done by opening the wing and examining the feathers, and depending on sometimes tiny variations in shape or colour you can tell some tricky species apart, or you can see whether it’s a male or a female, or you can see which moult pattern the bird has followed, which in turn can help narrowing down the correct age. Here are some examples:

Examples on wings that tell about either age, sex and/or species, taken from the digital ringer’s guide by Ottenby Bird Observatory (homepage link).

In any case, bird ringers are very very used to looking at wings, and since many bird ringers will mainly catch passerines, it is the wing of a passerine that stands as the Basic Wing in most of our minds. This means that we are used to a specific amount of feathers in specific feather groups, amongst others a total of 10 primaries, which are the long outermost feathers on the wing. See the above photos for some passerine wings (not the top right one though, that’s not a passerine but a raptor).

I have by now seen a couple thousand birds in the hand, but I have never noticed a bird that should follow this pattern yet did not. Except this particular Great Tit. Since all tits are passerines, we’d expect 10 primaries when opening the wing to age it. However, this insane Great Tit had an astonishing FIFTEEN primaries! That’s 5 (FIVE!) more than it’s supposed to have.

And it’s just so wild to me that there is (or at least was) a bird with 50% extra primaries, and I want everyone to know about that birb because what the actual hell <3

#thanks for coming to my TED talk hahahah #this got really long but omg #this is so wild #own post #there are pictures if anyone wants to see let me know #but they’re not mine and I don’t feel comfortable sharing them without credit and if I credit I’m linking directly to my in real life life #Sooo I don’t want to do that publicly ahahah #but I don’t mind sharing them privately! so just hit me up for those weird birb pics

Alright take some avm/ava hcs @hobo-dragon

The reason there are citys and towns of stick people is because the avm world is similar (not the same, similar) to wreck it ralph and toy story.

As such all the non allan made stick people have parents/family of some kind (I haven't had the time to really flesh this hc out but I will later) and ig Vic, SC, TCO, and TDL are all allans children tho i don't know if you could call them related or not...I'll figure that out later

Also the human ear cant hear the sticks talking but dogs can.

Everyone likes collecting weird looking mugs, they have over 50 now and once a week there's a contest over who found the weirdest looking mug this week, winner gets to drink out of said weirdest mug first.

Red and Blue regularly go hiking together, Red to watch wildlife and Blue to forage, and also to spend time together.

Blue has an insane amount if herbology books and can definitely kill you with the herb knowledge they have.

Red watches wildkratts and if your nearby you will get dragged into watching it with them. Red also has so many animal stuffies you cant see his bed

Green and SC are always the last two standing when it comes to just dance the others usually tap out at around the same time

SC and Green can continue for hours though and whenever the others get bored they start a game of throwing small objects at whoever's winning (usually pennies or acorns)

Red, Yellow and Blue also have a point system based on where the penny/acorn lands on whichever stick is the current target.

"Yes we did have to bring Purple into the game no it wasnt unessecary shut up SC"

SC will not hesitate to steal your clothes if you leave them outside your room. Ze sees a hoodie on the couch and Yoinks it.

Red and Blue sleep in literally the most uncomfortable and disturbing looking positions.

Also red moves a lot in their sleep, if anyone sleeps over in thier room either you sleep on the floor or you'll end up there at some point anyways.

You'd think being alone and taking care of his mom purple would know how to cook. She doesnt! do not leave zir in the kitchen unsupervised under any circumstance! Ever!

Purple however is the only one aside from yellow that knows how to save and budget and isn't a spend drift

as such yellow and purple are the only ones in charge of shopping and if anyone wants to buy something over 20$ one of them need to be consulted first

Red has a job at an animal shelter and somehow convinced everyone to volunteer there under him once a week

everyone uses mango's name as a curse word (they do it twice as much if mango is in the room and thrice as much if they see them in public)

Purple and Blue garden together. No ones really sure when they started they just regularly do it now.

Stupid nicknames everyone has for eachother: -beware i am a slut for nicknames- (also I'm sure you can figure out which names are casual and which ones were given specifically to be annoying)

Blue- blueberry, tree hugger, muffin man.

green - doot doot, tree, avocado, minum, quaver

yellow - Bill Nye, sunshine (always said sarcastically in the morning because yellow is not a morning person) LoLo (llow llow? Idk how I wanna spell that yet) other tree/tree 2

red- cardinal, imposter, sussy child.

SC- Jesus (but spanish pronunciation) cheese puff, Sec, Mom

Purple- birb boi, kiddo, teh child™

"Im not small" "yes you are!"

TDL - cherry, tomato, boomer 2, meemaw

TCO- sparky, boomboom, peepaw chosen, old person, cool boomer,

mango - moldy orange, nasty couch cheeto.

In case you cant tell due to the fact that purple and the color gang had no supervision and full access to the internet they are all memelords/gen z kids

#these aren't all of them #But this post is already too long #avm #animation vs minecraft #ava shorts #animation vs animator #hobo I feel like a student calling the teacher to grade their work tagging u lol #also love how iv been in this fandom less then a week and already have like 80 Headcannons lmao

Hello hi! Just read the newest chapter and I am Insane

I saw the update and I was so excited I nearly dropped my phone, I was almost normal enough to read it when I saw the wing whump tag, the crowd went insane and it ended up taking nearly 15 minutes for me to start actually reading.

I am insane, your writing is so beautiful.

(This is just me reacting to the entire fic I'm sorry (no I'm not), you don't have to respond to this one)

Anton, the wet cat of a man, watching the trees for an hour each day and counting that as touching grass enough.

He deserves immortality, I think he should get it, he can be trusted yes.

Hjshjshsjsgsjhsjshjshj he's being accommodating with the lights and the textures my heart- (we stan the tisms supporting the tisms)

"But hey, it's for science!" My Absolute Beloved, Anton can do whatever he wants to do he deserves it.

When the when the when the when the autistic wet cats of men communication (Anton and Dew talking at any given time)

The flinch going to the table >>>>>>>

THE LYING ON THE FRONT >>>>>>>>>>>> OHOHOHO YES

GLOWING GREEN LIQUID IN A COMICALLY LARGE SYRINGE YESSSSSSSSSSSSDHSHSFFHSDHHSHKDJFHSHDSJJ i am so normal about this i swear

The descriptions are so beautiful and vivid, have I mentioned I love your writing?

The Cloth Gag Yes

I just had to put my phone down for a second at that line woa I'm not usually one for duct tape gags, but this may have changed my mind on that front

When the man is in Pain and the other man is sat Criss-Cross Apple Sauce

He is in pain for weeks oh my with only Anton for company oh my he is going as insane as I am

He is Breaking someone get him a plushie this is beautiful I am handing him a chicken plushie because he is

the wings The Wings THE WINGS THE WINGS THE WINGS THE WINGS THE WINGS THE WINGS THE

YIPPEE YIPPEE YIPPEE YIPPEE YIPPEE YIPPEE YIPPEE

HE IS IN SO MUCH PAIN HE DESERVES A COOKIE

He is Breaking poor guy ohno

""I'm tired of being scared of you,"" I Am On My Knees Good Sir I Didn't Need My Heart Anyways It's Okay

I am holding him so gentle

A lil kiss on the forehead if he's okay with that

Hold lab birb gentle like hamburger

I am giving him a week's paid holiday somewhere maybe just home for a bit (oh wait that's the lab now isn't it :3 )

What's the Anton doin

A COOKIE

YEASSSS

THE BOI GOT ONE YIPPEE

I was going to say give Dew a weighted blanket but I guess he has one already huh

"maybe four weeks? Fuck, that was insane." I'LL TELL YOU WHO ELSE IS INSANE OVER THIS

"keeping Dew from moving an inch away from his captor?"

Damn that line. Someone fetch me my fainting couch. I must be dramatic and think of this line often.

Anton you're not the birb here why are you cooing

"excusing Dew's mention of his old life just this once" Dew should slip up :3 as a treat :333

Anton is but a silly guy. A harmless, silly guy.

He has never done anything wrong ever. I support Anton's rights and wrongs. But he has not done wrongs. He is so. He is a little guy, ur honour. He should be allowed to do whatever he wants in life.

Birb instincts *sounds of wait hold on wait I need a minute wait*

Dew's got wings now yay :3

Also his clone doing his own top surgery is even better.

Have a good 24 hours!!!! I'm going to go try to be a little less insane about this I swear (difficulty impossible)

Also I wrote the live react thing in a word doc and it ended up 661 words long! Sorry for so much!

AHHH KJDFGSJGF TYSM I LOVE GETTING ASKS LIKE THESE!!!

A CHICKEN PLUSHIE FOR DEW OMG im definitely gonna draw that now :))

Anton and Dew are both silly little guys living in our silly minds rent free

us when Anton does Anything: its okay he was just feeling silly :3

anyway i was giggling kicking my feet the whole time reading this,, these asks make me so happy :) its still such a surreal feeling having people react to my writing and ocs this way AHHHAJSKDGAKJ this means So Much to me you don’t understand. thanks so much again for the support it makes me so happy people like my writing and characters!!!!! :)

#ask #this makes me so happy #working on chapter 6 right now #and maybe a little comic based on it who knows #we can all be insane about my blorbos together #thanks again for reading :)#sorry it took a while to respond to this ksjdghjsf #im so happy my ocs can make someone else react this way #tllr ask

Hi, I watched the first episode of sandy aka The Sandman and here are my many, many thoughts

Sandy ep 1

Oh okay much more magical intro that I was expecting. He’s got a really nice narrator voice, I approve

“Father likes to be called magus” ok so father is insane, gotcha

OH MY GOD IS THAT THE FATHER? Can’t remember the actor’s name but I feel like he’s good as far as old white men actors go. Wait he’s in game of thrones isn’t he? This will annoy me

Off Jutland? Wait I live in Jutland!!! If it’s yaknow. The Danish Jutland.

Jesus Christ okay so he’s insane and an asshole, good to know. “Randall was my greatest joy” THE KID IS RIGHT THERE

Oh no, are you serious? You can’t make death do anything. Have you not seen Puss in Boots 2? That never ends well

THAT GOTTA BE THE TEEF GUY HELLO TEEF MAN oh you’re not good :( “my lord”, damn that’s hot

[Dream groaning] and it just sounds like a dying bee

Even Father is surprised this is working. Oh no, this won’t do any good, you’ll fuck someone up, I just know it. Oh is, he slammed into the floor hard, didn’t he? Poor sandy, he’s not even conscious

Is he gonna sacrifice his son??? Oh no, he’s just using him to do the dangerous stuff just in case, okay, that seems fair 🙄

YOU CANT JUST TAKE THAT, YOU LUNATIC!!!!! Thief!!!!! Oh my god he’s naked….. DON’T TOUCH HIM?????? What the FUCK

I TOLD YOU SO, YOU RUINED THE SLEEP, YOU PSYCHO!!!! TEEF MAN, EAT HIM!!!!! Oh no of course not, why would it be that easy

Oh they’re all D’s, that’s pretty cool

This honestly looks like some kind of renaissance painting, all naked and in glass, poor sandy :(

You’re doing this because you want your dead son back from the dead? Grieving would be better for everybody, you idiot. Humans are the most selfish things ever, dear god

He won’t give you shit, old man, fuck off

Alex is not like other boys, Alex reads gasp gasp. And he attracts older pretty ladies, that’s nice. Too nice. She’s too good to be true, isn’t she? Hmmmm

Oh no, don’t leave the kid alone with him. Or wait maybe do?? I’m not sure who do root for yet except the naked man in the glass bubble because he has a nice voice. You’re presenting yourself??? Oh no, poor boy

Angry little sandy doing the >:c face

OH SHIT DADDY CAUGHT YOU!!!! Was he about to beat his own son with a cane? He’s paranoid and insane oh my god if YOU can’t shoot the bird, how’s Alex supposed to??

Ethel, aw. That’s a nice name

Do you sense your birb is here, sandy? BE CAREFUL, BIRDIE!!!! Oh daddy’s a Hunter huh? No wonder I don’t like him

Are you seriously gonna burn the house down? Impressive, actually. Oh birdie, you found him 🥺 look at that face, he’s almost smiling

The bird’s gonna die, isn’t it? OH MY G O D, I TOLD YOU SO THAT IS HORRIBLE HOW FUCKING COULD YOU?!?!?! 😭😭😭 THAT WAS HIS FRIEND!!! You better fucking bury it right, you little shit.

Oh god, not sleeping at all?? You can die from that, can’t you???

…are they gay? They could totally be gay. It sounded like flirting

Oh noooo, Ethel, why are you crying? :( a baby? Oh dear. Papa doesn’t like that, does he? Of course he doesn’t. Shithead. PLEASE RUN AWAY ETHEL oh or grab a taxi, that’s great too. AND you robbed him??? I’m kinda impressed by you, E

He CANT FUCKING RAISE THE DEAD YOU ABSOLUTELY MORON, he can’t just give you whatever your tiny mind wants

Oh THANK GOD, someone finally stood up to him. Oh no, did you kill your own dad? That’s gonna give you ALL the issues, you idiot

Look at him. He’s waiting for you to free him, you’re ALLOWED NOW, you’re the master of the- oh wow he really is naked, huh??? 😳

His father would beat him senseless, what does it matter what he would say? Jesus these people are all so moronic

Oh it’s the gay boy again!!!

WHAT THE SHIT HES ACTUALLY GAY???? Oh my god I feel so weird, this never happens

Is Ethel important or is baby Johnny? Or both? I feel like they’re both involved a lot, even without the stealing

Gay boy wanting him to let sandy out, please please please. Oh his name is Paul, hi Paul. I like Paul, Paul seems good

You didn’t, did you? Oh could not, right, of course. Oh man, how many years went by? THEY GOT MARRIED? Awwwww. Like, a tentative aww but still, I never get to see happy gay endings

Paul, don’t say anything. Paul, don’t do it. Paul. Good good good, good boy, man, good Paul

Lord, that is an intense stare, little sandy

Nicely placed hand there, kiddo, wouldn’t want us to see your actual everything, huh? You are. So very thin, my boy

Oh god no is he gonna kill Alex? At least don’t kill Paul, he helped!!! Oh it’s a dream, sorry, my bad

FUCK ME HE LOOKS SCARY

Of course he doesn’t understand, nobody told him, sandy, you’re punishing Paul too :/ although, okay, I get it, it makes sense

Oh ew, teef man, you really. Those are some. There are teef on you, man

Aww look at him, that’s actually a smile, isn’t it? Poor little sandy, finally home with his sand <333 Oh god he can’t get in, can he? Not without his things??? Please omg no

Oh thank god, at least the doors open for him. Everything looks so awful :( oh he’s so sad, his home is all broken

Aw there’s some sad backstory there, huh? Which of the Endless jumped ship before? Death, Desire, one of the other Ds?

Okay okay okay, that was good, lots to absorb. Still waiting for the plot plot I think, is he gonna go around chasing the dreams and nightmares? That sounds fun

I won’t grade it because it’s like 7/10 did capture me enough to watch another episode but not like I was running to go watch it because I needed to actually listen and follow along which is tough with depression brain

Narrator is 100/10 though, absolutely the main reason I’ll be watching this show, very nice

#mish watches sandman #the sandman lb #I have many thoughts and none of them are important #I’m just commenting on everything basically #which is what I do when I watch anything with other people

Send “NO” to pin my muse against the wall to PROTECT THEM ( healer birb / a sad man(tm) )

{Meme}: {x}

It was more shock than actual strength that had allowed the girl to push Claude against the wall, mostly the thought of What in the name of God is she thinking?! People were not meant to protect villains especially not him. He was Claude Frollo for fuck’s sake. It wasn’t like he was incapable of protecting himself to begin with, in fact he made it a point to make sure every goddamn person in his life knew that he didn’t deserve to be defended. For anything.

Immediately his long fingers curled around one of her arms, gently of course even if the grip was firm as he leaned far down to hiss in her ear.

“Are you absolutely insane?! I can assure you this blonde fuckhead would have absolutely no problem going through you to get to me!” The concern for her safety over his was overbearing, he was seconds away from quite literally scooping her up into his hold before a glower that could curdle milk fixed upon the blonde fuckhead in question.

Phoebus de Châteaupers gave his old friend a cold amused smirk, gesturing to the tiny girl in front of the former Archdeacon with his sword. He hadn’t even dismounted his pure white steed yet but this was certainly an interesting development.

“Well, well, little brother… I knew you always had a perverse fascination for the frail & pathetic… But this is… This is nearly too macabre to amuse me, Frollo,” he drawled coldly, smirking at the growl his words garnered in response. No one could quite get under Claude’s skin the way he could & they both knew that the only thing stopping the slightly younger man from lunging at him was in fact the girl standing against him.

“Perish…” was Claude’s only verbal response as his body started to quite literally tremor with hatred.

Mission Debrief: Chapter Forty-Seven

...Right through the goddamn door!

Annnnnnddddd turns out it was option 2 behind the door. Endo went the cliche route and had the ol’ “bad guy disguised as room server” schitck, but considering we got a wicked assassination from Yor out of it I’m definitely not complaining (guess it was a good thing it wasn’t Loid and Anya!) This was probably the most action packed chapter since Loid took on Edgar’s men way back in the first chapter, and I am living for it. So let’s talk about it!

(Also just a quick shout out to @tare-chan and @musiciati for their awesome analyses. Check them out if you haven’t already!)

Okay, like I said already, the room service guy. It’s cliche. It’s obvious. It’s overdone- but I think that was kind of the point. The moment we saw this guy we already knew what was gonna happen, and yet it was still exciting seeing everyone pop off and Yor impaling the guy with her dagger (with a little help from McMahon and his darts, of course.) It quickly becomes apparent that plot isn’t the main focus of this chapter- rather it’s the action. We’ve had exposition. We’ve had buildup. The last three chapters were mostly talking, and now we’re getting into the actual fun part of this arc.

Endo has been building Yor up this whole time, and now we’re finally seeing everything come to a head as if the manga were this big, blockbuster summer movie about an army of assassins out for blood on a cruise liner. We’ve got all the tropes; an evil man-behind-the-chair, the eclectic group of cutthroat criminals, and a well-composed leader to reign them all in...

...For the most part.

The kill count is climbing fast, which I suppose is to be expected when you’re in Yor’s line of work. Still, it’s interesting- and a little bit concerning- how readily these guys are willing to turn on each other. We see that more as the chapter progresses and things devolve into essentially chaos. Everyone knows that Olka and Yor know they’re being targeted, so it becomes a rat race to see who can kill the former first.

Queue the masquerade scene (which funnily enough a lot of people were hoping would happen at some point, though not quite in this way). Yor is perfection in this whole sequence. Her assassin instincts are on full display, able to recognize the subtle feeling of killing intent even among an entire ballroom full of people. She has her eyes on everyone in there, including her charges, and despite her being nervous she invariably has everything under control.

First taking out a hitman with a button from across the room, and then leading a man twice her size out on the dance floor. I just have to reiterate that everything about this was so slick and smooth. Yor’s killer accuracy. The ease she takes this man with her insane strength. That little bit at the end where she reveals she’s married and tells him “it isn’t right”- god, move over Twilight. Your wife is the real smooth one in the family xD

Speaking of, it was only a matter of time before Anya got involved. It was kind of obvious that she’d be the first one to be clued in on Yor’s work, since she already knew the set-up for everything anyway. Now Anya knows the true extent of the trouble she’s in, even more so since we as the reader now know how much money is actually on the line here. Pulling out the math we did to figure out the cost of Handler’s coat, we know that Dalc= 3.16 to the U.S dollar. That means the combined bounty for both Olka and her son comes out to $2,528,000- an amount sizeable enough to make a boat full of eager assassins do anything to obtain.

Luckily- as expected- Loid is no slouch in keeping tabs on the boat-goers. Of course he’s not privy to the potential slaughter happening on in the background, but he does immediately recognize all the wires and bugs hidden everywhere on the ship. I’m glad Endo pointed this out because a) I knew Loid would sniff them out eventually and b) It gives Loid the excuse as to why he won’t draw attention to himself through out all this. Evil-franky (the intelligence guy) is listening to everything going on in the ship. If he hears any little detail that might point him to Yor and Olka, he’ll seize it...though good luck getting anything out of Loid when he’s on his best behavior. He won’t accidentally let anything slip out now that he knows people are listening, allowing him and Anya (and by extension Yor) some degree of anonymity-

-Assuming Loid can figure his daughter out. Poor guy just can’t catch a break, especially when Anya has no idea how to help her mama out. I know people were feeling bad that Anya has this recurring fear of Loid leaving her and Yor (frog hater), but honestly I was too busy laughing to care. Also I just have to appreciate Loid trying to be a good dad (FoR dA mISsuN.) Let him worry about that while his wife takes on an army. Y’know, typical Forger stuff.

It’s gonna be a whole month before the next chapter, but that doesn’t mean a lack of SxF! Endo’s been leaking out panels from his new novel and it’s looking fantastic. Also we’ve been seeing a lot more fan artists and writers popping up lately, so kudos to them for keeping us sated until chapter 48 drops! Ya’ll are the best!

Also, BONUS

Katsuki and Keigo like going out to eat spicy food together after patrols . Hawks can't really feel the spice due to his birb traits and Bakugou enjoys going out to eat with someone who doesn't whine about how spicy the food is.

I love this so much but I cannot stop thinking about Keigo hiding his wings so that people can’t see he has a bird quirk and he and Katsuki going to those places that are like ‘if you eat this extremely spicy thing, you get 2 months of free meals’ and Keigo acts like it’s so difficult, he simply cannot stand it, while he literally cannot taste the spice.

All the while Katsuki is leaning back and watching as this man who is supposed to be a hero scams this insanely overpriced restaurant.

AN: Yandere birb boi is my jam and butter and I will die but my stance on how amazing he is no matter what. Imma shot for doing Dabi, Shiggy and Tamaki next!

[ yandere profile - Hawks ]

TW: yandere, obsession, stalking, manipulation, nsfw in gen.

- The most low-key but still ever so vigilant yandere there is out of them all. He knows exactly what a ‘yandere’ is from popular culture and couldn’t help but apply that term to himself when it came to you. He knows he has a deep obsession and love for you, and he’d happily go to great lengths to keep you safe, happy and his alone. He’s smart enough to keep his lovesick driven insanity to himself however, and act ‘as cool as a cucumber’ when around you as to not gain any suspicion.

- He won’t tell you he follows you around whenever you are out and about, and he certainly won’t give away that he watches over your home at night during his patrol hours and off of them. He wants to make sure you’re safe, that’s all! You are dating the famous #2 hero, and who's to say a baddie isn’t targeting you at the very moment? He doesn’t find an issue with it either, as he’s just caring for your wellbeing. He may or may not also have a key to your place along with your phone tapped.

- Isn’t a terribly jealous man but he is possessive. Some random nobody thinks they can slide in and steal you away? Please, all he needs to do is strut his wings and wrap an arm around you and that person will know to back off that famous pro hero’s partner (maybe even ask for an autograph). With particular bothersome individuals that don’t take the hint, he won’t hesitate to use his connections to get rid of someone. He also believes in your loyalty to him so he’d never question your motives, but he will slowly isolate and guilt you into spending all your time with him and him alone.

- Extremely affectionate and is rather on the clingy side, but knows when to dial it back just in case you’re getting a bit antsy with his constant contact. Just having you wrapped up in his arms with his wings protecting you from the nasty world? That’s all he wants. Kisses and long hugs are what he’s about and likes to keep you by his side. He doesn’t need a reason to pick you up and spin you around out of the blue, having you close is all that matters. He knows he’s a charmer and can pull out all the romantic stops just to see you blush. If you pull away that’s fine, just know you won’t get far without him being just a few steps behind.

- Not keen on putting his hands on you to get you to behave, as he believes being physical will only scare you away more. He’d rather keep you in a loop of mind games and mental punishments to set you straight and get you to behave like the sweet little homemaker you were meant to be, just for him. He has ties all around Japan and finding a way to keep you locked in a small storage with nothing but the clothes on your back, a bit of light, and a naked mattress on the ground won’t be hard. Keeping you isolated even from himself will show it’s better to be with him than be alone, and as much as it hurts him to see you in such a state all locked away, he feels it must be done. He’ll even hand feed you while you are kept in that storage, hoping it’ll strengthen your bond together and show he’s the one who loves you and cares for you enough to keep food in your belly. Aren’t you grateful?

- We all know this man has a breeding kink in relation to his avian genes, so best believe he will be using your sopping hole as a cum dump for all his potent cum. He’s quite rough in bed, often leaving bite marks and scratches, but that’s just the throes of lovemaking! You can expect a nice belly full of his hot cum almost everyday, as he whispers sweet nothings in your ear about how you’d look so good swollen with his child and how much of a lovely mother hen you’d make. If you are to fall pregnant he’d be over the moon as well, not minding being a father at his young age. The sooner the better! It’ll leave more years to make more younglings!

- Push comes to shove, he’ll slowly get you to leave your job and stay with him (baby or not). Listing off all the goods that can come from being his little homemaker and the one he comes home to everyday. If you deny at first that’s okay, he’ll just up his game on pestering you about it and hope that’ll wear you down into agreeing. Though he doesn’t mind kidnapping you from your home if you are a little too difficult at taking the next step. He wants to be a good partner to you and will spoil you with affection, riches and all the love he can give. You play along, he won’t be too bad, and it’ll even feel like a normal relationship.. You just won't be allowed to leave.

In your LC Birbs verse, what would have happened if Ardyn had found Ozpin before Ramuh had intervened?

hgfgf forgive how long I’ve been perching on this ask but it’s just- has many possible answers and so I was hoarding it a little. Also I shall proceed to meet timeline for the sake of Prompto’s existence, just be aware XD.

-If Ardyn had found Ozpin before Ramuh had, he would have likely been in denial at first. He would have likely just been skulking around during a bout of restlessness, since as the Accursed sleep isn’t really an option very often, and found this isolated clone tank. Because the clone in that tank is dark skinned, at first he wouldn’t even have suspected the child was his. But then Ozpin, dimly sensing magic outside his tank and desperate to be free of this constant sedated haze, reaches out and Ardyn.

-Freezes.

-He knows that magic.

-He presses close to the tank, hands rising up to shakily touch the cold glass as the little one inside (probably only about half a year old in this AU? If that) stirs faintly. Gold eyes fight open to half-lidded cracks, and little fingers struggle through the haze of sedation to reach for Ardyn on an almost subconscious need-help-please-please. Ardyn feels his breath stutter as he looks at those gold, gold eyes and feels magic that burns slightly at his Scourge in a mix of LC-Oracle-Ardyn-Aera and feels the pieces collide.

-He yanks himself away from the tank and stalks away. It can’t be. It can’t be. The Scourge is toying with his mind again, making him see things, feel things.

-He mentally slaps at the magic that desperately reaches for him, and tells himself he feels no regret when it turns from hopeful-pleading to terrified and shrinks away.

-Ardyn tells himself he was imagining things for a month. Maybe two. Maybe far more than that, time is so hard for him to grasp. He tries to forget. But he can’t. He obsesses. The sight of the child in the tank haunts him whenever his eyelids shut, burns at him whenever he visits the lab after and catches a flicker of magic before it vanishes again.

-Finally, the need to know is too great. He returns and breaks into Besithia’s private office. He sorts through the papers about the MT project with growing frustration, yanks open locked drawers with raw strength of the desperate and paws through files of words that make little sense until he finds it.

-Project: Remnant stares back at him, a collection of photos of the tank child, of reports of various infant experiments that he cannot fully understand but sound like they would hurt (for doesn’t even the mildest strike of electricity hurt no matter how ultimately harmless it is?) and ... his origins. A project to clone the Accursed (to clone ARDYN) and while he doesn’t understand all the fancy words and self boasting littered in the reports, he understands the gist. That the initial clones all failed, daemonified within days. That Besithia had to eventually combine two extra strands of DNA in order to stabilize the child now in the tank. One of those strands was just a placeholder, a sample he had on hand that is at fault for the subject’s dark skin. The other strand-

-Tombs of the Oracles. The First Oracle.

-Aera.

-Aera-Aera-her-child-his-child-AERA’SCHILD

-Things get hazy. He remembers standing in Besithia’s quarters while the man writhed and screamed and paid for daring to desecrate Aera’s grave. He remembers setting ... a lot of things on fire, his armiger tearing open the walls as he raged.

-He remembers the crash of glass and black blood pouring from his arms before they healed as he pulled Aera’s drugged child free of the tank. The little one was so small, so alone, and somewhere with that thought in his head he thinks he snatched up another child on the way even though it was of Besithia’s blood, because there’s a screaming in his head that isn’t human but isn’t entirely the insanity of daemons insisting that hatchlings need playmates to grow up properly.

-He comes back to himself far away from the ruins of the laboratory, trekking through the wilderness with not one, but two children in his arms, one of them an infant barely a few months old. The other is his- is Aera’s- is their son. The infant is shivering and he takes a moment to securely wrap it in a spare coat (he didn’t intend to steal one of Besithia’s little MTs but he did and so this child is HIS now) before inspecting his blood child. The little boy is still drugged into sleep, unresponsive to Ardyn’s careful prodding, and Ardyn feels something inside him crack in pain as he inspects and realizes that the boy is no longer an infant, but a toddler. Perhaps two years old, bordering on three even.

-How long had he spent running away in denial while Aera’s child floated in that tank at Besithia’s mercy? Too long. Unforgivably long.

-“Oh my little one,” he breathes hoarsely, “Oh Aera. I abandoned our son. I would strike myself down were he not in need of me.”

-He carts both children through the wilds, slinking into the nearest town only to steal as many supplies as he can before flitting away again. The blond infant he’s stolen is not drugged and so wake up periodically. Ardyn had no real intention of getting attached, but his own son has reawakened things inside him, and the realization that this tiny infant is already well trained to not cry even when hungry or in discomfort makes his stomach churn and his armiger flicker briefly into being. He tries to distract himself from his worries over his sleeping son by fussing over the infant, making silly faces and cooing as he tends the infant who will be his own child’s playmate and little foster sibling. The little one needs a name.

-He will decide later. He must name Aera’s child first.

-He must ensure Aera’s child is alright first.

-The toddler finally wakes up on the second day of their travels, sluggish and confused. Ardyn feels precious, precious magic unfurl sleepily, tentatively little fingers of energy trying to pinpoint his new surroundings. Ardyn reaches back, eagerly, instinctively.

-The flinch from his son as gold eyes snap awake in fear, the way too-young magic all but recoils from him, hurts worse than Somnus’s blade through his heart all those centuries ago. The toddler in his arms gasps faintly, looking around, wide awake and confused-afraid. Ardyn shakes free of his shock and tries to hum a soothing note, but all it gets him is his child clumsily trying to raise his arms over his head like he expects a blow.

-Ardyn remembers that first meeting, that first sighting in the tank, the way magic had reached for him half asleep and needy and so vulnerable.

-He remembers how he had lashed out and slapped it away.

-It’s painfully, achingly, burningly clear that his son remembers it too, even though he shouldn’t, even though he should be too young to recall that horrible mistake, and Ardyn has to fight to breathe past the guilt screaming in his skull even louder than the Scourge. He can’t lose his mind, not yet, not again. He can’t lose his mind or run away or try fruitlessly to execute himself for the crime of hurting Aera’s child, because the little one (little ones, he hasn’t forgotten the burbling infant) need a caretaker and Ardyn is the only one (the only one who knows, who can be trusted, a magic child will suffer if given to non magical parents and he wouldn’t trust Somnus’s bloodline as far as he could throw Ifrit).

-He talks soothingly, mindlessly, trying to get the toddler in his arms to uncurl. He does eventually, looking around in fear-confusion, but his magic stays coiled tight inside him, and Ardyn’s tentative poke at it is met with another flinch and a wild-eyed gasp of terror.

...

-Ozpin wakes up and doesn’t know what’s going on or where he is. At first he reaches out, but the moment he brushes up against another, larger, magic, memories of Salem and half-formed impressions of this same magic striking him in anger that might be a dream or might be truth make him retreat and curl in on himself. He feels small, helpless, there is an eerie silence in his head where only faded memories lie instead of a new voice and a new host and he doesn’t understand.

-Talking draws him out of the haze of half-panic, but when large, dangerous magic pokes at his core again he recoils, expecting it to turn into fangs and the burning agony Salem was so very good at unleashing. It’s been so, so long since he felt any other magic than Salem’s or his own that he cannot stop himself from assuming pain will follow. That all magic not his own is intended for pain.

-The man holding him falters in his speech, like he’s in physical pain, and Ozpin uncurls again to peer at him. Is he injured? Who even is he?

-Ardyn, Ozpin learns as they travel. The man’s name is Ardyn, and Ozpin is in a toddler’s body that seems to belong to no one but him, there is another child, a blond infant who doesn’t look like he’s related to Ardyn or Ozpin but is with them anyway, who gurgles too-quiet in the way abused children do. Ozpin thinks, hazily, that this man might have rescued the pair of them from somewhere horrible. Or he might be at fault for that horrible place.

-Ardyn names the infant Prompto, and calls Ozpin “Zagreus” and Ozpin is too wary to tell him he already has a name. They’re traveling through the wilderness, one that Ozpin doesn’t know, and the moon above their heads is strange and unbroken.

-Ardyn has magic. Ozpin is too wary still to do more than flinch and hold painfully, obediently still whenever the man cautiously brushes it against Ozpin’s senses, even though he knows it hurts Ardyn to be rejected so, even though he knows he should be brave and reach out in return, because he doesn’t think this man has ever hurt him. Not yet at least. Not intentionally. The man is terrible at self care, so Ozpin thinks those repeated stretches of forgetting to feet him and Prompto are unintentional. Ozpin works up the nerve to keep track of time himself and repeatedly (hesitantly) tug on Ardyn’s coat when he thinks it’s time to feed Prompto and himself.

-Ardyn calls Ozpin his son. Ozpin has yet to figure out if that’s true or not. If he mingled magic, he’d be able to tell he thinks, because there is a strange new magic woven into his core, bolstering and healing his long-faded green and mingling into it with strands of blue and gold he can see behind his eyelids, but- he can’t.

-Every time he thinks of trying, all he can think of is Salem. And all the ways she killed him. All the times she forced their magics to mingle so he could feel her rage and hate and possessive, poisonous love as she carved him open and ended yet another lifetime.

-It doesn't help that Ardyn is ill. It’s not Grimm Darkness, he thinks after the first three panic attacks that trigger when he glimpses the man’s sickness. But it is very similar. Too similar. A part of Ozpin, his gold magic, itches to reach out and fix it, but after seen Ardyn look more Grimm than man when tearing apart the strange night monsters that sometimes hunt them, it’s all the self control he has not to grab Prompto and run into the wilderness. To let Ardyn pick them up and continue on their way. They will die without Ardyn, he knows that.

-It doesn’t make him any less afraid.

-It takes a long, long time to be able to fight down that fear even a little, to not stiffen in preparation for a strike when shaking hands pet his hair, to not duck his head and breath slow when Ardyn looks at him and speaks to him, trying to coax out a response that remains frozen silent on Ozpin’s tongue. He knows he’s acting poorly. But despite his infection, despite being so very hauntingly like Salem in some ways, Ardyn never loses his temper at either of them. He never turns violent or raises a hand against them, or withholds food or clothes or stuffed toys when Prompto misbehaves or Ozpin once again recoils from the touch of Ardyn’s magic.

-They’re wandering another continent entirely, and Prompto has already started babbling his first choppy words (Ze and Dyn respectively), by the time Ozpin works up the nerve to let his magic out into the air again. To probe at the air around them while Ardyn goes desperately, fragilely still and watches him without daring to reach out for fear of scaring Ozpin. It takes a lot of nerve, but he manages to brush his magic against Ardyn’s in gratitude-trust before retreating again, exhausted from pushing past so many lifetimes of Salem’s pain to do even that. He’ll try actually speaking aloud another day. Maybe.

-A few days later though, Ozpin hears two birds cawing hoarsely in the air and feels something familiar, and suddenly he’s racing away from Ardyn as fast as his tiny legs can carry him, chasing those birds in the sky and reaching for them with magic and need because that feels like-

-The birds plummet from the sky, and a moment later, two scraggly, wild eyed children with black hair and bright red eyes burst out of the underbrush to tackle him with gleeful cries.

-He’s found Raven and Qrow.

hello! i’d like to request a romantic tfp matchup!

this got a bit wordy, so i apologise if there’s any trouble!

i’m a vietnamese 5’7 nonbinary with sorta shaggy hair? it’s black and there’s some light purple streaks in it. my pronouns are they/he. i’m an INTP diagnosed with autism. i’m also a maladaptive daydreamer. i’m mostly known as the quiet, “who knows what’s going on in their head” type in public, but with close friends i tend to ramble about whatever i’m thinking.

i’m not sure why, but i like the kind of people who talk a lot. i like having someone to fill the silence, since i tend to communicate through writing or gestures when tired (which is most of the time). if we’re close, i’ll talk to you physically, but it tends to tire me out even more. i don’t really know why it’s been like that- i used to be really talkative.

i’m very interested in voice acting and impressions, and hope to do that kind of work in the future. it’s always been my dream to be a part of something big, but i constantly doubt myself and have trouble going outside of my comfort zone. as of right now, i like to work on voices for my ocs, or just the characters that i like. i can do a pretty good ratchet, which is fun.

i’m quite forgetful, and i tend to repeat myself. it’s probably because of my constant daydreaming. i often tell stories i’ve already told before, or rambled about something that i’ve already rambled about. i’ve been trying to work on it, but i even forget to do that. it’s kind of a problem, and i appreciate anyone who reminds me to do things.

my hobbies are writing, voice acting and watching anime, emphasis on the last one. if i’m currently invested in a show, it’s usually all i think about. i’ll unintentionally change the subject of conversation just so i can ramble about it. it’s lost me a few friends in the past, so now i tend to not really talk if the conversation isn’t about something i’m familiar with. that said, i like to ramble to my dad about the shows i watch, or my ocs, or anything really. i’m sure the old man is tired of listening to me now haha

- espresso anon

You got…Knock Out!

If we look for someone who will absolutely shred the silence, it's Knock Out by far. This mech even speaks to himself. Whether someone is there or not he's always chatting it up. But if he's the first to admit, having someone like you there is always better. Your little nods of agreement and small gestures only encourage his rambles, which got him to work just a tad bit faster. He actually encourages your use of what he calls " Humans power to mimic others " and what you call voice acting to Megatron, allowing you to skillfully trick some of the bots using their own voices. You don't like getting too involved in all that, though, so they have to convince you pretty thoroughly. It's one thing to talk a lot, but it is another to come up with those hyper Autobot personalities. Knock out is insanely good at getting you to laugh. With his dramatics and unorganized attitude mixed with all of that sass, it's hard not to double over. He loves your laugh a lot and only sees it as a reason to continue prodding. Once you passed out, passed out from it, and he still fears for your entire life, haha. Date nights involve you showing him your favourite shows. He was so used to drive-in theatres that he never expected to be able to project earth movies anywhere he wanted. Now you have someone complaining about the plot WITH you. " She totally deserved better- " " Humans are ridiculous! She clearly HAD to do it...Primus. "

———-

Authors Note - So lovely to see you Espresso anon; we are starting to accumulate a whole coffee shop in here with caffeine birb anon too!

if you’re cool with it, can you write the scene where quinn bargains for their life and their initial joining of daniel’s team?

(tw: death of a large group of people, desperation, death threat, knives)

This was, up to this point, the worst moment in Quinn’s life.

Hand clamped over their own mouth to quiet their sobs, huddled behind the pipes in the sink cupboard in the bathroom, shrouded in darkness.

Hearing the screams of the people they called family, as they were slaughtered one after the other.

The cupboard was small, but Quinn was flexible. They had to duck their head to avoid some of the pipes, and deal with the overwhelming scent of bleach. But it was working—they came in and searched the bathroom, seeing nobody in the cupboard and leaving.

The screams quieted but Quinn stayed, frozen in fear. For a while the silence was deafening, and then the horrifying sound of approaching footsteps flooded their ears.

The footsteps stopped outside the bathroom door and Quinn used everything in their power to hold their breath.

“I feel like we missed one,” a voice said. “Our kill count is twenty seven. I counted twenty eight beds in the basement.”

“I’m sure you’ve just miscounted. We’ve searched every room in this house,” another voice said. They knocked on the door to emphasize their point. “Every bathroom, every closet. No one’s left.”

The first voice sighed. “Fine. Can we just burn the place down to be sure? I don’t wanna let any of those damn Conformists run free.”

“Sure. Whatever. Just don’t catch my jacket on fire this time.”

Quinn’s eyes widened. No. If they burned the place down they would die. They’d be dead.

“STOP!” They screamed, bursting out of the cupboard. They opened the door and held their hands up in front of the two raiders. One was a man—most likely the first one to speak, and the other voice had come from the woman next to him.

The two of them looked shocked, but held their knives up threateningly. “I was right,” the man snarled raising his knife. “One last rat to take care of.”

“No!” Quinn sobbed, falling on their knees. “Please, I-I can’t die, I don—I don’t wanna die, please, please!” The grabbed desperately at the woman’s leg.

“I-I’ll join you!” They cried. “You c-can, can take me, I’ll be useful, g-god, please let me live!”

The woman kicked Quinn off of her leg, but observed their sobbing form with interest. “They evaded our search,” she murmured. “We looked through this bathroom under the impression that it was empty. We—We opened that cupboard and no one was in there.”

The man lowered his knife, considering it. “Do you think…would Daniel let us do this? It’s insane, but…we could use skills like that.”

The woman shrugged. “I don’t know. Don’t care much, either. I’m his co-leader. I can make decisions for the team just fine.”

She knelt down in front of Quinn, snapping her fingers. “Hey. Conformist rat. Listen to me.”

Quinn raised their head, wiping the tears off of their reddened face.

“By agreeing to join Renegade 2, you’re swearing your life for us. Everything you do is for our cause. You answer to me, and to my co-leader. Disagreement ends in punishment, and defecting ends in death.”

Quinn listened with wide eyes. They’re not going to kill me. I can make it out of this.

“Please,” they gasped. “I-I’ll be good, I’ll be good for you—”

“Shut it,” the woman barked as she stood up. “Follow us out and don’t make a noise.”

Quinn scrambled up and followed the two raiders out. On their way out, they saw the bodies of their family lying limp. The family they’d never gotten to say goodbye to, the family they’d never see again. The weight of all of it was crashing down on them and they fell to their knees with a sob.

The man frowned and pulled Quinn up by their hair. “Are you with us or against us? You decide that now.” He held his knife to Quinn’s throat for good measure.

Quinn shivered at the coldness of the metal, at the threat that would haunt them for years.

They stood back up, and they kept on going.

As long as they were alive, they would keep on going.

How to Play as Teba AKA Birb Favouritism By Kip

This was too big to fit in an ask so here ya go anon!

A handsombe birb with a bow and a little patience, constantly in a power squat with enough spite to rival Ganon: Here’s your guide to the best main in Age of Calamity

Teba is so good he’s so fast and so quick like omfg holy shit those strong attack damage output fucking crowd control AND is faster than Revali and pretty much everyone else at breaking weak point gauges like holy FUCK man So don’t let the chaotic attacks fool you!

Considering you are here and asking yourself: How the fuck do I play as birb dad? You’ve probably encountered one of two problems that prevent you from taking advantage of him. 1) wth are these attacks is he even doing damage to this moblin??? I can’t comprehend these combos because I don’t know what is going on plz I just want to shoot arrows or 2) Where the fuck IS he I can’t fucking SEE anything?!?! where did he GO I’m getting motion sick

Well friend, here I am to help you with both of those problems to help you 1) Understand what the fuck is going on and 2) Find out where the fuck he came from, and where the fuck he go, cotton eye joe

His Y stream is straight forward, quite literally. You’ll notice very quickly that his attacks move his character forward, rather than being more still and stationary like Revali or Zelda(slate). I’m pretty sure his Y stream (as in, a pure Y combo with no X/strong attacks) has the furthest distance in the game, perhaps rivaled only by Riju. So basically, save your big Y combos for crowd control and NOT bosses like Moblins and the such. You don’t want to move your directional input too much, since his attacks have incredible distance and range already.

Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-Y: Sweep left, sweep right, charge forward, mid-air arrows forward, stomp land, large spiral forward, flash stomp to ground, to an ending backflip.

You can see the distance here, again, with no directional input at all. Just pressing Y.

So just remember that even though the attack looks very chaotic, it’s really just a big fat straight line.

In all honesty though, you could forget about his Y stream all together. Any benefit to them is basically trumped by his different combos which are superior in both one-on-one battles, and crowd control.

Technically on it’s own, Teba’s combos are just good. He’s got a wind stream here and a loop twirl there. But what makes his combos arguably one of the most powerful in the game, is this ability here

This is pretty much the single handedly the most powerful perk Teba has, and it’s not even his Unique Action! It’s slightly similar to Link’s additional X action, but better in everyway. One of the draw backs of many strong attack combos are the slower speed it takes to dish it out, but this perk basically makes that draw back obsolete. It not only gives you insane additional damage, but also doubles, if not triples the length of a combo. Not to mention that half his move set is in mid-air, so the longer your combo is, the more time you’re off the ground and not taking damage. Basically, this equals fast damage for as long a length of time as you want. So! Onto the specifics

= = = = = = = = = =

Y-X: Wind Stream. Functions essentially the same as a Y5 (spiral forward) combo, except slower. Its strength, however, lies in your additional X input, which puts you in mid air and allows you to do what I like to call an

Additional X: Arrow Pivot. You’ll know when you do it when the “Press X repeatedly” option comes up. And the end of his wind stream, Teba flies into the air and, with directional input, fires a barrage of and enemies below him up to a 360 degree movement. Final shot will be of a bomb arrow dealing additional AOE damage. You can spam the arrows for around 4 seconds in midair before it forces the bomb arrow finisher, but you can force it early by not pressing X or pressing B. In fact, for all future additional X inputs (I’ll be shortening that to AXs from now on) you can stop anytime you want but just pressing B to hover in the air. All his combos have the ability to lead into mid-air state, which can let you ride the wind and do more damage, but I’m getting ahead of myself.

= = = = = = = = = = =

Y-Y-X: Bomb Arrows. Teba sweeps left to right before launching into the air to fire seven bomb arrows (with his LEGS BY THE WAY) in a wide area in front of him. Deals AOE damage, of course.

AX: Instead of immediately going to bomb arrows, Teba will rapidly fire normal arrows (at your X mashing input) and can (optionally) fly forward while doing so at your directional control. This is honestly his best combo in my opinion because it not only is the best for crowd control, but is also one of the quickest ways to deplete any weak point gauges. Just remember to keep him stationary and not fly forward if you’re doing one-on-one, as you might just accidentally fly away from your enemy

= = = = = = = = = =

Y-Y-Y-X: Wind Bomb. Not to be confused with the speed running strategy Teba hovers in mid air and fires one massive stream of wind with a bomb arrow. It’s trail also does damage and drags enemies. Deals a LOT of damage, I believe it’s his strongest?

AX: Instead of immediately firing the wind bomb, he will fire normal arrows, but still enhanced with the wind effect. You can control the direction of any of the arrows with the controller. The finisher will be the wind bomb. While this combo deals a LOT of damage (like two normal arrow streams can take out a solid chunk of weak point gauge) It’s the slowest attack in his arsenal. There’s a larger time between each arrow strike, and if you use the full AX combo it keeps him hovering in the air for like 5 seconds, which leaves Teba pretty vulnerable. If you’re using this attack, don’t bother waiting for the wind bomb finisher and end the attack early. So while it’s technically Teba’s “strongest” in terms of damage, I wouldn’t call it his best

= = = = = = = = = =

Y-Y-Y-Y-X: The Teba Tornado. Ok THIS is the move that has been ridiculed to death because of how chaotic it is. Teba basically swirls around in a circle and sucks any enemies into his little tornado, and then finishes with a gust of wind upwards

AX: Extends the time of the Teba Tornado, and control it’s direction, lasts for about 9-10 tornado swirls.

DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT LOCK ONTO AN ENEMY WITH THIS MOVE. You will DIE of motion sickness, probably. Ok I mean, you could lock onto an enemy, but that’s not what this move is for. It’s intent is for gathering huge swarms of enemies into one place. The camera zooms out for a reason! It’s great for crowd control, but terrible for one-on-one. Control the movement of the tornado by moving based on the “eye” of the tornado, and not based on where Teba’s character actually is. I still stand by the fact that YYAX combo is superior, as it has better control and is much faster, but hey, this move aint all that bad once you learn how to use it

= = = = = = = = = =

Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-X and Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-X: Arrow Strike. This is the only combo that forces you into the AX “Press X repeatedly” state. Teba does his little Y stream thing, before launching high into the air, where you are then given a circle. Move the circle around while rapidly pressing X to fire arrows wherever you choose. Ends with a bomb arrow

Note that this attack will basically make Teba invincible. This is his highest attack, and even mid air attacks won’t reach him in this state. It’s also the longest lasting combo, giving you about 7 seconds to deal as much damage as you wish. Take full advantage of this. Excellent for weak point gauges, but the set up Y attacks do take time, so make sure to use stasis.

= = = = = = = = = = =

Dash-Y: Small AOE stomp. Nothing to write home about, not that much damage. Just your average set up for the combos that will actually do damage

= = = = = = = = = =

Dash-X: Flips over enemies and fires arrows before continuing forward. Honestly looks pretty badass, similar to that backflip Revali does when he was about to assassinate Link. Anyhow, good for when you just want to kill something small but have places to be so it keeps your momentum forward.

= = = = = = = = = =

X/AX: Fires arrows high into the air. After some time, the arrows will rain back down in front of you in an amount dependent on how badly you mashed X. (Note that the arrows will always land in front of you, so if you shoot off the arrows in one direction, but then turn around in another direction, the arrows will still land in front of Teba) Ends with bomb arrows. Pretty good if you want to stack the damage with a timed combo. Also automatically strikes onto big enemies if you’ve locked onto them. Good for one-on-ones but don’t rely on it solely.

A really good thing about Teba’s strong combos is that ALL of them are mid-air, meaning you can instantly continue any combo with your aerial attacks. As usual, your aerial combo is just Y-Y-Y-X

= = = = = = = = = =

Aerial Y: Fires arrows in front of you. You can press Y up to three times before you’re forced into the ground

= = = = = = = = = =

Aerial X: Teba stomps onto the ground with his talons with the aide of a gust of wind. Deals AOE.

= = = = = = = = = =

Special Attack: Teba gives a thumbs up of encouragement before murdering everything in his line of sight. (Damages enemies in a direct line in front of him, plus AOE)

So that’s all of Teba’s attacks. Teba’s combos are really fast with that AX damage. A good stasis plus a barrage of YYX will guarentee you a weak point break, and even if you’re slow on it, just tacking on the aerial combo will definetly break it, or at least deal headshot damage cause again, everything is midair.

Speaking of stasis, here be the Sheikah Rune set, which is ALSO arguably the best in the game.

Stasis: Upon activation, little crosshairs will appear on your screen. Use the controller or motion controls to highlight as many enemies as you wish, and when you press X to activate, all will be stasised. Not only is this overpowered considering you can stasis as many enemies as you wish, but you also can automatically head into a combo as there is no attack animation that you need to dash cancel out of. It is also the longest lasting stasis in the game.

Cryonis: ITS A FREE FORCEFIELD! Unlike other characters, this doesn’t spawn a usable cryonis block for you to jump off of (because *stares at Teba’s pretty much pure mid-air move set* he doesn’t need it) but instead, spawns three ice blocks that encircle you. I know that it might seem like you have to position yourself so that you have to wait until the block goes directly in front of you for it to properly counter, but don’t worry. It’ll counter all cryonis weak attacks, (by EXPLODING >:D) even if it looks like an enemy is striking you in the gap between the blocks.

This is the quickest cryonis spawn in the game, capable of countering enemies even the singular second before they hit you with their cryonis weak attack. But other than countering those ice attacks, doesn’t do anything. Still pretty great though!

= = = = = = = = = =

Bombs: Teba gets a fancy Sheikah Bow, launches into mid air, and you can aim with the controller/motion to launch a powerful bomb at an enemy/horde. It is guaranteed to expose an enemy weak point gauge, regardless of whether the enemy is using it’s specific bomb counter attack. Like the Y5X combo, this positions Teba at the highest point in the air, making him immune to damage. SO not only is this a good rune for great damage and countering, it’s also a quick dodge for if you’re in a lick of trouble. You can move out of this rune into an aerial combo/riding the wind as well.

= = = = = = = = = =

Magnesis: eh. It’s there. It counters weapons. It does its job. If your enemies have metal weapons it makes a little magnet storm. I was too lazy to bother getting a group of enemies with metal weapons because I killed them all with one Y sweep and didn’t feel like restarting the level. It’s magnesis. What do ya want from me. Nothings gonna rivals Slate Zelda’s magnesis combo anyhow.

And last but not least, Unique Action! Teba can charge up his bow with ZR to deal arrow attacks that get stronger the more you charge. There are four stages indicated by a little “ding!” and also the visuals showing wind forming around Teba.

Charge one: Fires three arrows. Pretty basic, although it has a longer range than a normal attack

= = = = = = = = = =

Charge two: Fires five arrows, again with a large distance and higher damage than a usual Y attack

= = = = = = = = = =

Charge three: Fires a LOT of arrows covering 180 degrees in front of Teba. Very good for clearing out crowds if you couldn’t tell

= = = = = = = = = =

Charge four: Fires 180 degrees of bomb arrows, as well as bomb arrows into the air AS WELL as bombarding the battle field with bomb arrows from above for the next 8-10 seconds or so.

Charge four is really what you’re looking for, although three isn’t so bad either. But there really is no excuse to not use Charge four because Teba’s Unique Action can charge at any time. So long as you’re holding ZR, whether you’re in the middle of a combo, doing aerials, blocking, running away-- the attack will be charging. And you can hold it for as long as you wish. Charge four is very very very good so always be holding down that ZR and releasing it and recharging and re-releasing. You can’t be damaged by your own explosions and you really have nothing to lose.

SO what now? Well know that you fully understand what my birb dad is capable off, here’s what to stick to.

If you got a giant horde of bokoblins or something, just us a Y-Y-AX and go ham. It’s like a giant broom that sweeps the battlefield, doing a lot of damage.

Stasis is your friend and your best friend and your only friend. IF you’re fighting two bosses, it’s in your best interest to use stasis to halt both of them and more. Use stasis during weak point gauges to lengthen your time which, combined with Teba’s AX attack speed, with guarantee you a break pretty much every time you use it

Even if you don’t stasis during a weak point break, stasised enemies are a good enough time to use that YYYX combo as even though it’s more vulnerable and slow as I said, when you have the ability to stasis all of your enemies, it’s as good a time as enemies to deal that big damage.

Don’t use your Charge four on stasised enemies. I mean, you can, but it’s really better for when you’re in the middle fo battle, clearing the battle field, and dealing damage even while you’re dodging.

Don’t lock onto enemies. It just makes it easier all around. Teba like to move, let the birb move. Don’t limit him to the bird cage of the focused camera movement, it’s just easier for everyone to move the camera manually. You can snap it on and off just to focus if you want. But personal experience says it’s easier just to learn how to move the camera you lazy bum

Bomb rune is very good. It’s a free weak point stun, and a free dodge. Use it

When breaking weak point, just use the YYX combo. Yes, the Y5X is good, but honestly they’ll both get the job done, so might as well do the quicker combo and save Y5X for crowd clearing. Besides, even if your YYX doesn’t immediately clear the guage (becuase you’re SLOW at button mashing for some reason) you can continue with an aerial combo

Ending a combo and letting the final animation fully finish will drop you to the ground. Don’t. Let the final animation finish and then immediately press B, or B cancel before the final attack starts. This is because you suck on the ground cause you’re a bird. Pressing B allows you to automatically go into glide state/”ride the wind”, giving you better time to glide away to safety, or lead into an aerial combo

Your unique action charge attack can be fired even in mid air. Note that weak point smashes, special attacks, and runes will cancel any charges you make

My personal favourite combo for levels are using stasis, YYX sweep for damage, then while stasis is still going, charging and releasing a Charge Four arrow, then finish by setting up a 5YX combo. That pretty much clears all hordes, then just stasis a boss’ gauge, hold ZR while I do a YYX plus aerial, boss is stunned, use the Charge Four arrow, fall back and do some normal X attack or Ys, then finish off with the weak point.

For his seals, I’d say invest in mid-air attack damage, strong attack damage, or attack speed.

Teba’s final Falcon Bow seal bonuses are:

Midair attack damage (Star)

Damage to foes with status effects (Star) [this is pretty useless ngl]

So I’d say stick with mid-air attack just to get the seal bonus, but don’t put all four as it, as it’ll just waste a seal slot as there’s no bonus for 5 of the same seal. So I say 3 mid-air attack, and 1 strong attack damage. But then again it’s all up for preference! 3 strong attacks plus a single star seal isn’t gonna be a bad match either

Pretty much the most powerful thing about Teba is his ability to smash a weak point pretty much the instant an enemy is down. So use his stasis and combos often.

Although obvious his general crowd control is pretty great too! He’s jut a really well rounded character that is pretty broken and honestly rivals Impa imo

The more arrows on screen, the more chance that fps may tank...just saying. BUT! It’s not really to a rate that’s that detrimental to the experience of playing as him. Just goes to show how overpower he can be if you push yourself enough

Congrats! You have learned the ways of the bird. Now get out of my face, I’m in the mood to post more Teba gameplay....
