Nobility in Baldur's Gate
Edited to add: I never expected my silly, niche post to get as much attention as it has! I'm giving you all forehead smooches! 😚💋 I've gone through to clean up some things up as I've found new information. I also added a list of nobility that I've found in game and other sources to the end of the post. Thanks, y'all! I'm glad I'm not the only one to wonder about this stuff. Good stuff in the reblogs, too!
Baldur's Gate has dug itself deep in my brain, so I apologize to my poor mutuals who didn't follow me for BG3 content getting this onslaught of posts. Please bear with me until my hyperfixation wears off. 🙏
Now, I'll admit up front that I'm no expert in DnD lore*, so if I get things wrong, please feel free to correct me or just add in stuff I may have missed. I'm going off of what I've found in-game and my Google Fu skills.
That said, I do know enough about DnD to remember that Baldur's Gate nobility are called patriars, and that there are only a relative handful of actual patriar families. I was thinking about my "canon" Tav, Velassa, and her background in BG3. She's a modified OC that I plunked in-game during Early Access, so I made her a noble. It was just part of her existing character that I didn't think too deeply about. It was only after I starting playing that it occurred to me to wonder what exactly "a noble" is to a native Baldurian.
That got me digging a little more into the current state of the Baldurian nobility as of BG3. I don't know who--if anyone--needs or wants this, but I put this together for myself and decided to share it for anyone else who might be interested. I realize that this is probably pretty niche and it's rambly and long af, so I'll put it under a cut.
So, for starters, here's a list of all the patriar families, including "fallen" houses that are barely hanging on: Belt, Bormul, Caldwell, Dlusker, Durinbold, Eltan, Eomane, Exeltis, Gist, Guthmere, Hhune, Hlath, Hullhollyn, Irlentree, Jannath, Jhasso, Linnacker, Miyar, Nurthammas, Oathoon, Oberon, Portyr, Provoss, Ravenshade, Rillyn, Sashenstar, Shattershield, Silvershield, Tillerturn, Vammas, Vannath, Vanthampur, and Whitburn
From what I've gathered, Exeltis, Provoss and Ravenshade are all more-or-less destitute. Also, the Szarr family (Cazador's family) were patriars, but were believed to be entirely wiped out. No living descendants makes them a dead house, rather literally. 😏 (No, I'm not sorry.)
Now, we learn that Wyll's father is Ulder Ravengard, the Grand Duke. This brings us to the first point: There are four Dukes, known as the Council of Four, and the Grand Duke's job is to be the tie-breaker.
Traditionally, one of the Dukes is also the highest ranked officer of the Flaming Fist--that's Ravengard, who was a Fist promoted up through the ranks. Wyll tells us that his father was born lower class, and quite a few of the patriars seem to scorn him for that. The other Dukes are Belynne Stelmane, Dillard Portyr (more on him later) and Thalamra Vanthampur (more on her later, too). Of the four, two are patriars: Portyr and Vanthampur. We don't know much about Stelmane's past, except that she was a brilliant businesswoman, politician and--as we find out later--member of the Knights of the Shield. Apparently, you can't buy your way into the patriars, but maybe you can buy your way into being a Duke.
Skipping ahead a bit, when the player shows up to Gortash's coronation, there are a group of mostly patriars sitting in the boxes leading up to the front of the room. I'm listing them by seating arrangement, with box 1 and 2 being the left and right closest to Gortash, and 3 and 4 being farthest. (I don't know what, if anything, the seating arrangements imply. The second box has eight people, compared to four for all the rest.)
Lady Ailis Belt, Baron Callem Bormul, Lord Rugger Shattershield**, and Lady Alia Durinbold**
Lady Ruth Linnacker, Lord Sarken Eomane, Lady Freida Oberon, Lord Raylen Jannath, Lord Myer Ravenshade**, Lady Madeline Whitburn, Lady Beatrice Provoss, and Duke Dillard Portyr
Lady Winstra Hullhollyn, Admiral Peil Hullhollyn, Lord Randolph Vammas, and Lady Eshvelt Guthmere
Lord Milon Tillerturn, Lady Silifrey Sashenstar, Lord Petric Amber**, and Lady Haeril Birch**
Here's some pictures of the nobles sitting together. (Sorry for the terrible quality! I slapped it together for my own reference. 🙈)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The characters marked by ** aren't human, which is interesting because the information I found said all the patriar familes are human except the Shattershields. Myer Ravenshade is listed as human if you examine him, but he has a dwarf model. That might be a mistake, but I'm including him anyway. Alia Durinbold, from a presumably human patriar family, is a wood elf. Again, this could be a mistake, but unless Larian winds up changing it, it could mean that interracial marriages that once may have been looked down on are now becoming more acceptable. Petric Amber is also a wood elf, and Haeril Birch is a high elf.
Those last two are interesting because they are the only ones in the boxes who aren't patriars. If not for them, I'd have assumed the coronation was simply a demonstration for the patriars alone. Their inclusion means this is something else.
Digging around, my conclusion is that all the listed people are members of the Parliament of Peers--a 50 person advisory party to the Council of Four. However, what I found says that it's pretty rare for all 50 to attend meetings, and the usual group is between 20-30. There are exactly 20 named individuals listed, plus a group of unnamed "patriars" standing at the front.
Here they are, for what it's worth:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
One thing I noticed here is that most of those listed here are Lord/Lady, but there are three other titles: Duke, Baron and Admiral. I've already talked about the Dukes. Looking into the patriars, the Hullhollyn family are notable for having a fleet of ships, so it makes sense that one of them would be an Admiral. That leaves the Baron.
I couldn't find anything about what it means to be a baron in Baldur's Gate. Going on real-world peerages, a baron/ess is generally the lowest "rank" of nobility. Basically, it's someone who was an official landowner (usually of an "important" bit of land) under the feudal system. Well and good, I suppose, but presumably all the Lords and Ladies of the patriars own land within the city. This particular Baron is also a patriar, but given that one doesn't need to be a patriar to become a Duke (normally a higher peer than a baron), that may not mean anything.
(Apparently, the term "Duke" was originally meant somewhat jokingly. That said, it still carries the weight of a title even if not the conventional one.) We don't see any other titles between Duke and Baron, so what does that mean?
This isn't canon, but my assumption is that it means the Baron owns important land outside of the city. This would make sense for Baron Bormul, given that the Bormul family apparently have investments in silver mines and vineyards. Assuming they own the mines/vineyards, that may make those lands "important" enough to the city for their owner to earn a title. Alternately, the Bormul family also has counterparts in Amn, so maybe baron is an Amnian title that got passed along. That's getting a bit far afield for me, though. 🤷‍♀️
Anyway, among the group at the coronation, pretty much everyone supports Gortash becoming Archduke, with the exception of Lady Sashenstar (an old woman who really isn't too impressed with this commoner) and Duke Portyr, who expresses some hesitation at the whole thing.
Duke Portyr is interesting here. Except for Ravengard (who is thralled and conducting the ceremony), Portyr is the only Duke present. Now, Stelmane is already dead, so that explains her absence. Vanthampur is also missing, which is interesting. Portyr first, though: he was Grand Duke before Ravengard. He's the one who re-instituted (Edited: and originally created!) the Parliament of Peers to make the day-to-day decisions of running the city, and ceded the title of Grand Duke to Ravengard. He's described as being conflict-averse, so it makes sense that he'd go along with Gortash's coronation, even though he's clearly unhappy about it. Also, the current leader of the Fists is also a Portyr, likely still Liara Portyr, the Duke's niece and Ravengard's second-in-command.
Thalamra Vanthampur is an interesting character, too. She's the head of the Vanthampur family, and part of the Descent into Avernus story. Apparently, she's the one who got Ravengard to go to Elturel before it sank to the Hells, intending to take his place as Grand Duke. From what I read, she also conspired with the Dead Three's cults to murder people in a bid to discredit the Flaming Fist. (The murdery bits were undoubtedly left to Bhaal's cult.) We never do find out anything about Thalamra Vanthampur in this game (I assume that's probably cut content). (Edited: She is mentioned in one of the in-game texts as having been killed, which was one of the possible outcomes of Descent into Avernus. Larian chose that as their canon, just like the fate of Elturel and Zariel.)
The only Vanthampur we do meet is Carnelia Vanthampur, who is in the Guildhall and describes herself as "a peer of the Parliament". She's willing to work with either the Guild or the Zhentarim. Nervously of course. Also interesting is that, on the Bloodstained Parchment hit list, is a Varri Vanthampur, whose gravestone you can find in Candulhallow's Tombstones shop, reading: "Varri Vanthampur. Unwanted in life, welcomed in death."
Interesting, hm?
Also on that hit list is Fridrik Hhune. The Hhunes apparently have links to the Knights of the Shield, from what I looked up--the same group the Emperor led with Stelmane. The only Hhunes we meet in-game are Blaise and Gheris Hhune, two of the werewolves in Cazador's ballroom who are brothers according to the dev notes. With them is another werewolf of a different patriar family, Duver Rillyn. This suggests Cazador has been going after members of patriar families, which sort of fits with what we know about his plans. We really don't find anything else out about them except that they consider Cazador to be their master and Astarion says they're new.
We also can talk to a Flaming Fist who mentions that Hurlbut Hhune is the father of Henrietta Hhune, who used to be secretly engaged to the Fist in question, only for her father to decide to arrange her to marry fellow patriar Derque Rillyn, who the Fist describes as "a major arsehole."
That conversation is interesting for a few reasons. For one, it tells you that arranged marriages within the patriar are a thing. Also, this Fist is a Manip (essentially a Sergeant) who can't ask the other Fists for help because "the Fists don't mess with wealthy patriars, they've got the Watch to back them up." That's aligned with what Devella can also tell you: "There are patriars on the murder target list. I'm oathbound to secure them first, so I'll be heading to the Upper City next." If you say that the Fist should protect everyone: "Not from around here, are you? We're in Baldur's Gate - this is just how things work."
This brings me back to my original issue: what is a Baldurian noble? The patriars are canonically nobles, of course, and they're undoubtedly seen as the "most important" of the nobility. From there, it's not much of a stretch to say that anyone who has earned the title of Duke is now a noble, even if they aren't patriars. I'd go so far as to say anyone on the Parliament of Peers (and their family by association) is a noble^, given that non-patriars Petric Amber and Haeril Birch are considered Lord and Lady. The information I found about that is that there are approximately twelve non-patriar members. If Amber and Birch are two of them, that leaves another unnamed 10.
^Edited: Looking at the dates, I realized that the Parliament of Peers is a very recent change to Baldurian governance. Duke Portyr originally created it after the three other Dukes on the Council of Four were assassinated. It was clearly meant as a temporary measure, but my guess is that the patriars liked having more official say. Not to mention the non-patriars who managed to get a seat. This has all happened within even the youngest of Tav/Urges' lifetimes.
Personally, I'd also assume that branch families of the patriars probably also count as nobility. By branch family, I mean those that marry out of the main line but whose ancestry stems from a patriar family. From what I've seen by naming conventions, Baldur's Gate seems to use patronmyic lineage--ancestry is generally passed to the sons, and wives take their husband's surname. So, if a daughter marries out of the family, she'd no longer be a part of her father's family lineage, but still would be considered nobility. These branch families likely still maintain powerful influence and connections from marrying into wealth, which would make them a good political/financial choice of marriage alliance, despite no longer having the main branch patriar family name. These families are also probably the ones most likely to find a place on the Parliament, too, but likely have to jockey for position if their "representative" dies (or otherwise leaves) and a new opening in the Parliament is created.
If you've read this far, as a treat you can have some crappy close-up portraits of the nobles at Gortash's coronation, grouped together in their respective boxes. 😚

* For what it's worth, I'd count myself as a casual DnD player. I have some knowledge of DnD--I've played BG1 and 2, Planescape: Torment, along with some general cultural osmosis. I've had friends who played the tabletop version, but for one reason or another, I've never played it myself.

sup homie, big fan!
1: was there any old OC that you got rid of or found to cringy?
like those edgy OC's every-13yo made that *totally* wasn't a self-incert. /// MarySue that is always pretty and perfect and everyone loved, yet has as much character depth as a puddle. /// a story you really liked at first but later on thought otherwise.
2: when making a new character design, what do you mostly like to add/take inspo from?
do you like to make it lovecrafty? put a bunch of eyes, mouths, flesh, ect. /// keep it cute. /// put a bunch of patterns on. /// focus on unique eye shapes. /// making fun cool fashion on them.
((3: are there gonna be more plushies, or is it just gonna be Muffin? if you do have plans for more, im first in line.))
TY!!!! AND OH BOY A LIST OF QUESTIONS //pos im rubbing my hands in a evil way
---------------
1. i usually do not get rid of my past ocs as i feel like ALL of my past characters are close at heart and tend to hold onto them forever BEHABEHWA
however i DO give them a makeover (aka new design/lore ect)
Tumblr media
amy / kitty is a good example of this, she's my 2010 creepypasta phaze oc and sona back in the time
i find her lore/story to be....a bit too much, so compleatly overhauld it while keeping the design basicaly the same 😂
there was also a male kitty as well for her counteroart, but he's banished into the void due to me picking to keep the female kitty (they were basicaly the same character anyways so one had to go behshehw)
-----
2. i honestly don't keep a specific element while designing characters, but i do look out to
- use more diverse shapes (so they won't feel all the same while im drawing them)
- if they can exist in my univserse and its lore
the others depends on which character i am making
-----
3. perhaps. maybe 🤫 i might make more makeship ones and is still activly looking into making my own plush production along with making the site itself aha

Call Me Luna Info
Hello dear readers, Mari speaking!
I just wanted to lay down some basic info about my story so that things are clear
- This story will probably not include super explicit smut unless or until I become more comfortable writing it, but due to heavy discussion of sex and suggestive scenes, this is an 18+ work, so it please respect that and MDNI
- The reader has an AFAB body and uses she/her pronouns and I think at some point I will have her wear skirts/dresses, and I decided to divide SKZ in half in regards to how old everyone is compared to the reader for the purpose of honorifics, but I looped Hyunjin in with the younger half since they were born in the same year. I also might have a background for character motivation purposes, so just oc family members and their secondary genders. Other than that, I try to keep it pretty neutral including race, religion, etc. Unfortunately I am limited to my own experiences, so if you feel like I’m not keeping it neutral or I am portraying something incorrectly or problematically, feel free to say something!
- I have ADHD and will deadass forget this story exists unless I have people interacting with me, so please do!
- My chapters will probably be over 1,000 words but I’m really inconsistent other than that so good luck
- This isn’t meant to be an exact biography of Stray Kids obviously so I’m not putting pressure on them or forcing them to be together or anything, also they have less managers and choreographers and sound people just because I don’t really feel like including all of that
- I’ll update when I want
- This is my story, so if you don’t like it, you can just leave without reading anymore!
- This story will deal with physical, verbal, and psychological abuse, as well as slight substance abuse, eating disorders, and mental health issues so please don’t read this if any of these affect you negatively
- Again, I can only go off of my experience so the way the characters in this story deal with things is not meant to be the “correct way” and it may not be relatable to everyone
- If you guys have any theories or ideas for what will happen next, let me know! It’s fun to see how people interpret writing (and maybe I’ll get my next plot point idea😁)
- I really don’t know what direction this will take so I’ll be adding trigger warnings as needed for individual chapters, and if there’s something that I haven’t tagged properly, please tell me! I want everyone to have a good experience with this story
- This story will have cursing, that’s just the way I think and write (and I think we all know the kids curse off camera)
- When any character uses English, I’ll show it like “‘“this”’”
- I’m shit at titles so….. we’re doing chapter numbers, but I might add chapter names later
- Tag list is open! You can send in an ask or message me if you want in! My tumblr is a bit fucked up so I can’t really respond to replies, but I always add you even if I don’t answer
- However, being on my taglist and being able to read my work is ultimately up to me, so if you do or say something that I dislike, I have no problem with blocking you
- I am fine with comments like “can’t wait for the next chapter!” but if it’s something more like “when’s the next part😡” consider it an automatic block, sorry not sorry!
- Liking and reblogging are always appreciated!
- Really, just have fun, stay positive, and (hopefully) enjoy the ride!
Info Regarding ABO
- omegas have heats three times a year for 7-10 days
- alphas have ruts twice a year for 3-6 days
- betas have slips once a year for 4-5 days
- heats include abdomen cramping, change of the omega’s scent, a need to nest, slick, and horniness for most
- heat suppressants are common, they don’t completely take away everything, there is still usually mild cramping, change of the omega’s scent and a need to nest, though they are pretty moderate
- ruts include a stronger scent of the alpha, possessiveness, need to mark their partner or partners, aggression, headaches, and horniness for most
- rut suppressants aren’t nearly as common as heat suppressants but they can tone down a rut to only include headaches, slightly stronger scent, and a bit of aggression
- slips include betas getting a stronger sense of smell and touch and they become very sensitive both physically and emotionally
- slip suppressants are very rare and only tone down a slip by about 20% while making the beta emotionally numb so many don’t like taking suppressants even when they have access
- there are no specific alpha scents or beta scents or omega scents, but in this universe, people can still identify someone’s secondary gender based on their scent
- scent glands are on the wrists and neck but if you put blockers on the neck, the body automatically stops releasing scents from the wrist gland
- scent blockers also lessen the wearer’s sense of smell
- wrist to wrist scentings are for acquaintances, neck to wrists are for good friends, and neck to necks are basically the equivalent of saying “I want you in my life forever” which can be platonic, familial, or romantic
And now onto the masterlist!

If there is a trigger warning that you are concerned about but want to enjoy the story, please please please reach out! In many instances I can alter snip-its or tone things down, or at least highlight the sections in question so you can avoid them (I could do a vague summary for continuity).
Tumblr media
Doc's Misadventures - Inspired by the prompts of Febuwhump2023, a female medic referred to as 'Doc' deals with the initial challenge of finding her place among the reluctant members of the Bad Batch. Wrought with unending struggles and both mental and physical disaster, a mutual tolerance slowly develops into acceptance and respect, and maybe something more...
OMG THERE BE FANART?! - I will absolutely add each and every bit of Doc fanart yall make to this little list, and I will love and treasure them and and you until I die!
Asks - Have a special request? Lemme know and I'll try to write you up something special to add to this lovely collection (a collection of 1 so far, but that will hopefully grow) - pspsps: my clone adoration is not limited to tbb! I'm happy to write with the others, too!

Unhinged Asks! - Collection of random asks that I've answered, both spicy and not
Prompt Lists - Choose a prompt, some characters, and whatever details yuh like, and slap that all in an Ask. We'll see what happens
I Ranted and Don't Know Where Else to Stash It - Might add more rants/ random headcanons later, maybe? This one's about the reoccurring theme of characters not allowing themselves to admit their mistakes so they double down instead

DayCare Moments|| JJK x OC
A/N: Taking a quick breather from nursing school to push this out. I miss Jennette and Jungkook (& Peanut too!)
Might add onto this later, but just wanted to post something.
Pairing: Jungkook x Jennette
Dropping off a Daycare...
Even when he is running late, Jungkook always walks hand in hand to the front door of the daycare. He could be meeting his favorite idol of all time and would still walk his Peanut into the building. He rings the doorbell of the home daycare. The late fifty-year-old black woman answered the door with a smile. A sleepy toddler on her hip.
"Have a good day." Jungkook watches Peanut's coils move in the wind as she enters the daycare. Within seconds, she conversed with Cameron, one of her daycare friends.
"I love you!" Jungkook raises his voice, seeing that Peanut didn't respond to his earlier statement. Remembering that her dad still existed, she wobbled back to the door.
"Love you!" Jungkook crouched down to her level before embracing her. With ease, he scooped her little body up. Blowing raspberries on her cheek as she squealed.
"Appa loves you so much. My peanut cup."
Placing her on the ground, he left one kiss on her forehead. Careful not to shift the Hello Kitty clips Jennette placed in her hair this morning. Peanut was at that stage where she wanted to pick out her clothes like mommy and daddy. However, she had the pickiness of her mother and got fussy if her hair or clothes were not neat.
With one hand touching her hair, she waved goodbye to her father. Jungkook smiled at the mini Jennette in front of him. He blew several kisses to her before turning around to walk back to his car.
❤︎
"What song are we listening to today, Peanut cup?" Jennette buckles in her toddler. Peanut was always given the aux cord when Jennette had to take the toddler to school. Plus, it was funny to hear Peanut's raspy voice sing beautifully off-key to the songs.
"The Red Panda song." Peanut grooved in her car seat. Two weeks ago, Jennette and Peanut watched the Disney animated film 'Turning Red'. Jennette didn't expect Peanut to like the movie as much as she did. As it wasn't necessarily focused on really young kids. But Peanut awwed and gushed over Mei Mei's panda form. Requesting Jungkook get her a red panda plushy (which arrived the next day from Amazon).
The second reason Peanut liked the movie so much was the songs the fictional boyband 4-Town sang. The most recognizable one 'Nobody Like U' was nicknamed the 'Red Panda song' by Panda. Jennette didn't complain much as it gave her a break from hearing 'Part of Your World' from the Little Mermaid.
Jennette played the song before pulling out of the driveway. Occasionally, I look in the rearview mirror to see Peanut dancing to the song. At some parts of the song, she would make up her own lyrics; she was in her own groove. Her head moved side to side as she sang her little heart out. Twenty minutes later, when they got to the daycare, Peanut was still singing the lyrics to 'Nobody Like U. '
Peanut Makes a Friend ...
Jungkook was doing some stretches on the carpet, listening to Peanut recap her day. She sat at the dining table, with a coloring book in front of her.
"... then it was time for recess, Cheese asked me to play hopscotch with him."
Jungkook paused, 'Cheese?'. What were parents naming their kids these days? Jungkook thought to himself. He didn't want to interrupt Peanut, with his growing list of questions.
"I was hopping like a bunny rabbit. Going like hop, hop, hop." Peanut mimics the hopping with the purple crayon in her hand.
"We had so much fun. I can't wait for recess tomorrow."
*next day*
"Bye bye, Ms.Potts, bye Gabby, bye Cheese!" She hugged the little boy. Peanut standing slightly over the little boy.
Jungkook smiled, watching the sweet interaction. One of his fears as a parent was Peanut being bullied. However, she appeared to be adjusting well at the daycare and had some friends.
"It's Chase, not 'cheese'." The little boy whined.
He pointed to the engraved lunchbox in his hand. Clear as day, the hand stitching spelled out 'Chase'. Quickly covering his mouth, not to laugh out loud. Jungkook ushered Peanut out of the front door.
❤︎
Jennette was making Peanut's lunch for school tomorrow when the four-year-old tapped her leg.
"Mommy am I allowed to have best friends?" She tilted her head, looking up at her mother so innocently.
"Yeah, you can have best friends."
A smile appeared on her face. "Good! I know Appa said I couldn't have girlfriends or boyfriends. But I wasn't sure about best friends."
"What's your best friend's name?"
"Cameron, Gabby, Chase, Makayla, Louis, and Bernard."
"Goodness, that's a lot of best friends." Jennette flipped the sandwich in the frying pan. She admired the golden brown color of the bread internally.
"We play at recess and sit beside each other in circle time."
Jennette nodded her head. The next time she picks Peanut off from school, she'll consciously look for all these 'best friends.'
A light bulb went off in Peanut's hand. She scurried around the corner out of Jenentte's sight. Brief ruffling could be heard. Sticking her head out slightly, Jennette wondered what Peanut was up to.
Surely enough, Peanut came around the corner with eight mini Rice Krispie treat bars in her hand.
"I hope you don't plan on eating all those tonight, miss ma'am."
"I was gonna share with my friends."
Peanut put on her puppy dog look for her mother. "Then why do you have eight. You named six friends?"
"Well, I was thinking about an extra for myself." She twisted a foot and looked down.
Jennette couldn't hide the laugh coming out of her mouth, even if she wanted too.
"Fine, Peanut. Fine."

I've finally got swept up and carried away by how many ocs I've got so it's time to ACTUALLY MAKE A LIST OF THEM ALL- there's more than I thought!!!
Before I actually get started though, my Oc tag is #ba.kersocs, I don't always catch every oc post with it BUT if you JUST wanna look at original characters and read a bit about them this is the tag to search through.
And everything on this list with an underline is a hyperlink! So you can tap/click on those to see art of the ocs themselves :)
Baker's OCs:
Belle (she/her) - A 23 yr old vegetarian and local cafe cook. One of the first two ocs I made for this blog, the other being their partner Chrys. I mainly draw her in stuffing situations/as a feedee. Tagged under #belle n chrys
Chrys (he/she/they) - A 24 yr old nonbinary gardener and apprentice carpenter. Partners with Belle. I usually draw them in light stuffing situations and nbpreg. They're a bit of a feeder as well. Tagged under #belle n chrys
Vaughn (he/him) and Tyler (he/him) - Written together because they're a duo I tend to keep together. They don't really have a main canon or consistent ages, all I know is that they are together, and very in love. Both of them have tattoos that I ACTUALLY have a reference for so I'm putting that here too. Vaughn is subject to light weigh gain, and I frequently draw Mpreg of Tyler. Tagged under #gothbfs
Sabina (she/her) - A vampire chick I made EXPLICITLY for hyperpreg even if I never draw her. I never settled on a partner for her, a tag or... really much? but I'd like to bring her back.
Maren (she/they) - First made in the post hyperlinked on her name, but established more fully with THIS post, Maren is a Marine biologist and a professor/former student in @/preggomancer's MonsterPreg University. They get pregnant from mermaids and don't have an established partner yet.
Exis (He/they) - Exis is a shapeshifter in a D&D style fantasy universe who I made for the SOLE purpose of preg angst. They have a small adventuring party that they travel with, and at the time of writing they're partner status is uncertain. A lot of early posts of them are tagged as #shapeshifteroc and later posts are tagged as #Exis & co.
Avanth (she/her) and Omylia (he/she/they) - The most established duo out of Exis' adventuring party, a tiefling rogue and a drow cleric. Avanth is the leader of the group, and Omylia as the resident healer/medic spends a lot of time with Exis. They're in a prestablished relationship of their own but might end up being in a poly relationship with Exis. They're also tagged under #Exis & co.
There's two more members of this party but I'll add them once I know more ABOUT them.
Heather (She/her) - A mid thirties transgirl, and at the time of writing the newest oc to be added. Shes a veterinarian and has a currently unestablished partner who is a dog trainer.
There are a few ocs that I did DESIGN but I'm not super interested in following a story with, or much else but I think would be fair to list here anyway:
A muscle Chub girlie
A Selkie
I've got a handful of mermaid one off characters, some tangentially related to Maren.
A Catgirl named Tourin

Hii-! I have come back with a very weird and strange request. Can we have a reader who is perfect in every way. But..the catch is..what if they weren't human?..like maybe like a Angle,demon,succubus/Incubus or a siren?? Idk something not human! How would u think the lookism characters react to it and how would they find out? Also reader is a good fighter!!
Its fine if this request is so weird and you don't want to write it I totally understand!! Please do ignore this Also have a nice day/evening or night♡
♡"Lookism Men x Demon! Female Reader" ♡
A/N: Thx for the request! I'm personally going to enjoy this one bc I really like horror/supernatural kind of genre and I'm going to be inspired by some of my fav manga characters and their abilities but I'll make other ideas for this character/oc? (which is just not really obvious on my media here lol). Genre: not really fluff and lemon ; slight angst (but there are some cute parts though) TRIGGER WARNING: mentions of g*re, bl**d, organs/limbs, mut*lat*on, mentions of social anxiety and depressive episodes, kidnapping, cannibalism, trust issues, toxic relationships at some parts, NOT FOR SENSITIVE AND YOUNG AUDIENCES Another thing, if you're having thoughts like these I suggest that you don't read this. It's okay if you like gore and the horror genre but don't take anything personally! And stay safe and healthy (keep your physical and mental health in check)
Tumblr media
Guide: Y/N (Your Name/Self Insert)
Age: (same age with the character of choice)
Sex: Female (feel free to change if you're uncomfortable)
Abilities: body mutilation, regeneration, immortality (slowly getting physically or looking old but you do have a birthday), clone making, weapon making, strategic planning, whatever else you want to add in.
Talents: *self insert*
Weaknesses (I want to give her some flaws): hand to hand combat, weakness of fire/heat, bad luck, (Bonus!: overthinker in calculations, slow memory and naïve at times, poor eyesight, lacks leadership and socializing, easily gets distracted, short tempered)
Is her powers cursed? Nobody knows. Though the only way to break it and to make her finally rest in peace is to learn how to love (cheesy Ik but let me explain later on). Not meaning to be edgy, but she hears voices in her head and she hallucinates of a beautiful (almost perfect) looking girl saying nasty things for her to do. Good thing she can control it at times.
Gun Park/Goo Kim/James Lee (DG)/ Yoojin (Eugene)/Olly Wang/Jiho Park (villain arc)/ Cheon Taejin/ Charles Choi (Elite)/ Tom Lee/ Baek Hangyul/Jinyoung Park
Oh boi, they seem to be chill and unbothered about your abilities but you know deep down that they're probably planning something about you. You're going to be a great weapon machine. Yoojin, Goo, and Baek might even acknowledge this as a great feat. But you know that behind that smile there's a foul intention hiding.
(Not promoting this behavior!): You seem to have trouble with trusting your peers making socializing hard for you. It may seem to be an easy task for most people but it can be a challenge for you. You may be good with your preferred hobbies but you know deep down that doing simple tasks in your daily life can be troubling. Good thing that he has your back for most times to protect you from harm, even if you're immortal.
This might sound toxic but I think most guys in this list/category will probably use you for their own advantage. Whether it's for strategic planning or in a physical fight he will be willing to train you because he believes that you got so much crazy potential. It's no big deal (no pun intended) for him if you got your arm or leg broken if you even got regenerative abilities (Jinyoung might kidnap and drug you out of "pure" curiosity of what the hell is your body capable of). It's also another interesting thing if you can make your own weapons. At least you can defend yourself from opponent's attacks even when you're losing. But he thinks that your abilities is not enough. You need to train, you need to get stronger since he saw that flaw on you that you depend on weaponry. Expect him to either whoop your ass for a beating everyday or do scientific experiments on you to know if you got more abilities that you are hiding from him and he wants to know your limits. Your endurance, durability, speed, IQ and defense are one of your greatest feats. But you often struggle to take the offense and with your strength, stamina and you need more battle knowledge plus experience. He wants to make you his greatest weapon.
It may be easy for them to just beat you in one punch or kick, but he knows that he may be fighting death. It doesn't mean that he's better at hand and hand combat is that you're not going to bring your guard down. You got your weapons and the only way to evade your attacks is if he is fast enough or if he has insane durability. Despite appearing as a normal being at times, you get easily agitated and stressed. This may trigger your powers and even a single scratch or drop of blood can produce another clone of you own even if it's a really slow process. And you getting pissed off is dangerous, it can cause chaos on your surroundings and you might even unintentionally harm the ones you consider your family. He might consider training your attitude though.
He might even make theories or hypothesis about your abilities. Is it a curse or is it really on your genes? But so far he knows that based on what you said, you never really find or felt love even from your close "friends" or family. He asked why you felt this way but you just don't really know the answer. If you actually get to know each other and have a deep connection he might actually like you, though at times it's just not obvious. He might not be the most affectionate but he promises that he'll try to be more gentle with his approach. You don't know if you could trust that though.
Sinu Han/Kuroda Ryuhei/Vin Jin/Gongseob Ji/Doo Lee/Jake Kim (Goo Kim ; a bit he's more chill than the others above)
Another one who's not really disturbed by your abilities or yourself. But he's not going to use you either. He's fine with you being a succubus or a demon as long as you won't hurt anybody intentionally. Though he can't help but to be amazed by it. "Wow! You can really do that? Can you show me a trick of yours or something?" "Do I really look like a dog to you?" He's just going to let you be. You are you and he wants you to live your best life.
GORE WARNING: He's not really demanding you to help him to deal off his enemies but he'll still appreciate your help nonetheless. But he'll still get really worried about you since he deeply cares tbh. He knows that you're not really a pro with hand to hand combat. But your creation ability and regenerative powers is a great advantage. But he doesn't want you to get hurt. Trust me he'll be in a state of shock when you started crying when you broke your arm or when it got cut off. Your limbs may have the ability to grow back, but you can still feel the pain and it may take a while for it to grow another clone of yours. So it's best if you don't make him worried, he can handle this business on his own.
He lowkey gets scared when you have an episode (like for example when Tomie grows another clone of hers when being triggered or mutilated). He wants to help you out as possible to just stop the drama but he doesn't know how to approach you when these events happen. He will try his best to comfort you though after.
He always feels bad that you experience getting mutilated over and over again. As you explained to him, the more you get revived, you slowly lose your humanity and sense of empathy. You often tried your best to mingle with other people but you end up being awkward and coming out as loud and strong to them making most avoid you. This frustrates you a lot as you want to live peacefully but your powers won't just let you be. He will try his best though in including you to social events and daily activities like partying and spending time with his friends and acquaintances so he hopes that you'll enjoy and appreciate his efforts! And if you're in a romantic relationship with him, he'll make you feel that you are worth it and he'll make you feel loved. Who knows the devil inside you might calm down for a while as you enjoy your moments with him.
Daniel Park/Jay Hong/Zack Lee/Vasco (Lee Eun Tae)/Jace Park/Eli Jang/Warren Chae/Jerry Kwon/Lineman/Brad Lee/Kwak Jihan & Jibeom/Jiho Park/Yuseong/Duke Pyeon/Xiaoleoung
He was a bit concerned with your abilities, almost not believing you at first if you asked me. Daniel might understand you more than the other guys in this list because of his ability to pass his consciousness with his two bodies at will. For sure you know that he was a bit scared about what you are capable of. Though he tries to be respectful with your feelings as possible since he doesn't want you to feel left out or feel misunderstood. Vasco, Jerry, Lineman, and Zack may ask questions again while you can hear his voice getting shaky mixing with his curiosity. (Cannibalism warning!) "Yo-You're a demon? Do you eat humans?" "I can if I want to make myself more powerful. But in exchange of that, I will completely loose my control over myself. So not necessarily because I don't want to. My diet is composed of what humans eat so you don't have to be scared, though it's understandable if you want to distance yourself from me." "NO NO IT'S OKAY I PROMISE!" "SH! BE QUIET!"
With the other more mature guys in this list, he may ask why you have the ability to make yourself to be stronger with you eating others. "It depends on the person. If I consumed a beautiful teenager around my age, I might be able to resemble like her or get some of her striking attributes like her prettiness. Or if I ate a powerful opponent, my hand to hand combat or creation will get more stronger and deadlier. It can probably enhance my regenerative powers but I wouldn't risk it. It can feed her up at have complete control over my body." "Who's her?" he asked as you pointed something behind his back with the coldest eyes. "Behind you." (ANOTHER THING! If someone is completely concerned or is actually really emotionally close with you they might see what you're seeing. It's a really pretty girl almost resembling like you, but her physical appearance has no flaws. But the one of the main difference between the two of you is that her attitude is, well not really pleasing and good if you asked me. She can't also touch other people but she can control you when you're experiencing uncontrollable negative emotions, hence it's the reason why you switch personalities in times of stressful events).
He'll be in a state of panic when you limbs got cut off again. He might take you to the nearest hospital but you told him that doctors will probably hold an experiment on you if they learned about your regenerative abilities. So the only solution he can make up with is him stitching your limbs together so you wouldn't produce another clone. After some weeks your body is back to normal and there is no hint of scars on your arms and legs. He is relieved that you are feeling better now.
You mentioned of how you never felt satisfied with your daily life despite being talented at the things you do. He may ask the reason why but you couldn't really find the answer. You often see your classmates chatting and having a great time, why couldn't you have that too despite helping them out when they need assistance? Are you not enough? Are you boring or too loud? Are you ugly? You couldn't even know the answer. The only theory he can make up is that your insecurities and hatred against other people can feed up the "demon" in you to be stronger and take over you. And that hallucination of yours is a reflection of your wrath, envy, and greed getting stronger if you loose control because of you looking for your own perfection. So you got to take a hold on yourself and actually start appreciating yourself. He doesn't blame you if you feel insecure about yourself, but you got to start to change and be more open to everybody even to him if you need advice in your life. He'll make you remind that despite having your own flaws, your kindness shouldn't be abused by other people who wants to take advantage of it and he's thankful that you helped him out in his darkest times when others can't or don't want to. And you shouldn't bring yourself down most of the times. But your "friend" is not pleased with this though. She often reminds you that you're just a pawn to be used by other people and how you wouldn't be strong or approachable without her. Often gaslighting you at times since she's scared of getting physically weaker because of your humanity taking over. So you and him have to work hard to make this bitch calm down. He'll give you lots of hugs and kisses and whispering to your ear about how he loves you. It's your guardian angel helping you out as best as possible battling with your worst enemy, the devil in your head and consciousness.
Samuel Seo/Johan Seong/Hudson Ahn/Daniel Park (post-Gun training arc)/Jace Park/Magami Kenta/Kwak Jichang/Taesoo Ma/Mandeok
He's not really surprised or disturbed by this discovery. But that doesn't mean he's not concerned. It might have hurt on your part to be cut off over and over again. And it might not be obvious since he's mostly calm at times but he doesn't like it when he sees you experiencing this phenomenon. It may have been something along with black magic or a curse even if he doesn't really believe in those unrealistic stuff. But so far he believes that what you're experiencing is not scientifically possible.
A little background story: He'll be asking why your devil just wouldn't leave you alone. You explained to him that you didn't knew either as you just woke up with no prominent scars or wounds on your body. You remembered being in a fight with your so called "friends" who have betrayed you and who have taken your life somewhere between the woods when they asked you out for camping. The authorities couldn't lock them up because of lack of evidence against them. Then you just woke up on your house like nothing happened. You were shocked that the year was different from when you died, maybe around 1987. You tried making contact with the people you used to know in your past life but you couldn't get a hold on them. They're probably dead or they may have forgotten about you. You just didn't know. He suggested if you got reincarnated in a new body but it's far from truth. Your body still looked exactly the same like in the past. And it just doesn't make sense if you woke up with a devil whispering to your ear about the nastiest shit ever and you just don't age at all.
He'll also be in a state of shock the moment your body produces another clone or when your limbs got cut off. He doesn't know what to do since you producing a clone that gets stronger can affect your mental health and you're both in the middle of a fight that can harm both of your lives. He will have a hard decision if he should just run away with you or fuck up that bastard's face for getting you hurt.
Like I said, they might not be the most affectionate out of the bunch but some of them are more mentally stable than the others above except for Samuel and Johan but anwaysss. He'll make sure that you eat normally and sleep well. He'll have a chat with you there and then so it wouldn't trigger your negative emotions and keep them in control. And he'll also spend his quality time with you even when he's tired like cuddling with you on the bed and giving your head some pecks.

Hii mina mae-duh-whores anon here! Hope you are doing good! first of all,i saw that ask mina and if you were to actually write mgime related stuff, please id really go crazy!! i love your writing so much!!
Second of all to that anon, if you actually start writing silmarillion mgime i wanna be the first to read it!! id love to beta read or just brainstorm or plot with you if you're up for that kind of thing!!
Third, I've got a recommendation or two that no one really asked for haha. There aren't many silmarillion mgime fics so I thought I'd share the ones I've read on ao3 that I think you or your followers might like!
The first fic called, stardusts in our souls by Autumn_moonlight. its ecthelion x oc, it was last updated in July or something, but its such a fun read so far! the oc reads ecthellion the harry potter series and his reaction and eagerness to find out what happens next, its so cute!! I love when the modern girl shares technology or stories or songs from her world and seeing the characters' reaction to it is just so!!! Oh, there's also maeglin x oc smut in later chapters so there's that i suppose.
Second fic, it's called the knowing princess by Fantasticoncer. it's kinda long? The author still updates it I think, I haven't really finished it yet tbh lol. anyways main pov is basically female of x maedhros but it has got lots of other ocs x characters too, like fingon and mairon etc. it contains reincarnation and stuff, mc gets reincarnated as an elf in valinor along with her sisters from her own home reality.
Third is the Oialëa series by natelly
It's mcu/tolkien crossover fic, its kinda long I suppose, multiple books and many chapters etc but it's fun read, tbh I haven't this one either. its not exactly silmarillion events set but oc is kinda part of the kidnap fam, glorfindel's sister, and I've read spoilers that maedhros travels to mcu in second book or something so I thought I'd add it to the list? The first book which I've read is hobbit period set, btw its elrond x oc, and the oc is also doctor strange's daughter, and she also has powers and stuff. So yeah, if you love mcu and silmarillion hobbit lotr and mainly elrond, this fic is for you. Honestly I don't even like elrond that much, more into his sons lol, but still,, it was so interesting I ended up reading the first book! The oc is such a fun gen z mgime and i love her so much! The series is so well written too and there's even separate prequels and epilogue and fics written from other characters perspective and stuff too! In one of the books maedhros and oc also goes to therapy, haven't read that part but mae,, im so glad he got therapy, he really really needs that haha
I am doing better as I've resurfaced from my week disappearance 😁. Though, everything feels strange as though I've been gone for longer 😅.
Some recommendations for those who enjoy the Modern girl in Middle Earth troupe and for the anon who's in the process of creating a story for modern day reader. Thank you for assistance 💖

The disassembly drones' former names
Tumblr media
I figured that I would share this headcanon with all of you sooner or later. You know each of the disassembly drones’ serial designations? Well, what if their letters were based off their former names back when they were worker drones? And I’m not talking about the first letter of their names. I’m talking about the name of the letter in each of their names. For example, N’s former name was probably either Kenneth, Bennett, or Leonard, and V’s former name probably either Venus, Vivian, or Genevieve. J’s former name was probably either Jamie or Jane, the latter of which I was initially going for Mary Jane (yes, the same name as the famous supporting character from Spider-Man). I’m unsure about CYN or Cynthia, though, largely because that she probably died long before the events of the series that she wasn’t converted into a disassembly drone. Besides, for all we know, she was going on a crazy, murderous rampage that she had to be put down. And if she was converted into a disassembly drone, her designation might be either C from the first letter of her name or T from a phonetic of her name (Cynthia).
The former names should go as followed:
A – Ada, Eva, Avery, Abraham, Adrian
B – Beatrice, Bianca, Phoebe; Sabine
C – Caesar, Cecil, Casey
D – Diesel, Delia, Deanna, Heidi, Nadine
E – Edith, Eden, Elaine, Ian
F – Efrem, Jeffrey, Stephanie
G – Giovanni, Georgina, Regina, Eugene
H – Rachel, Horatio
I – Isaac, Ivan, Isaiah, Ivy, Iris
J – Jane, Jamie, Jayden
K – Katie, Kayla, Casey
L – Eleanor, Elliot, Elias, Elvis, Elmer; Bella, Angelica, Melanie, Danielle, Michelle; Denzel
M – Emma, Emerald, Emmett, Emmerich, Clementine
N – Kenneth, Bennett, Benedict, Leonard, Henry
O – Ophelia, Olivia, Odette, Opal
P – Peter, Penelope
Q – Cueball, Queue
R – Archie, Armand, Charles, Harley
S – Essence, Estelle, Esther, Jessica, Lester, Marquess
T –  Christina, Valentina, Misty
U – Ulysses, Unity, Eunice, Eustace
V – Venus, Vivian, Genevieve
W – Winston, Wilson
X – Xavier, Rex, Alexander
Y – Wyatt, Wyvern, Wyoming
Z – Ezekiel, Lindsay, Suzie
I also want to share that I used to have a theory that J, N, and V used to be regular secretary drones before being converted into disassembly drones, as well as my former headcanon that N used to be friends with his assigned human coworker.
Anyway, that’s all I have for this headcanon for now. This might be re-edited soon, but if you’d like to add in some additions, feel free to do so in the replies and reblogs. You can use this list as an outline for your OCs if you want. And I’ll see you all next time.
P.S. If Uzi were to transform into a disassembly drone, should her designation be either U or Z?

7.0: New Casting Job for Hali?
Tumblr media
For 7.0, I’m still hoping that we get a new casting job, and I know that the jobs on people’s short lists are Time Mage, Geomancer, and Green Mage, and I’m honestly thinking that no matter which one we might get, IF we get a new casting job, that I will probably add it to Hali’s canon jobs list (Hali’s only canon jobs are Astrologian and Dancer by the way). Here’s my thoughts on each one, and why it might work for Hali.
Time Mage ⏳
Tumblr media
((Shout out to my poor neglected Time Mage OC Mirai, as seen above.))
This is one of the three jobs that seems the most obvious to me that Hali would naturally be attuned to mastering, and especially since AST used to have some spells that were Time Mage-like already. This is also the one that seems the least likely that the devs will add in 7.0. Why? For the same reason that I previously mentioned: it’s too close to the Astrologian job already. I suggest that they give AST those Time Magey spells back, and/or give us some new spells that are reminiscent of Time Mage, and I’ll be happy as a clam. It also scratches my Time Mage itch, since Time Mage is one of my favorite FF jobs overall.
Geomancer 🍃
Tumblr media
Geomancer is the second of the three jobs that seem like a natural progression for Hali, and one I could see her mastering easily. This is in large part due to what has been canonically discussed in the AST job questline, that Astromancy and Geomancy work on the same underlying principles, the difference being that Astrologians focus on the power of the stars above, whereas Geomancers focus on the star below their feet. So for Hali, it seems obvious that she would have Geomancer as a canon job in the future. Of the three, I feel like this is the one the devs would most likely add because we have a ton of Geomancy lore in the game already, and it just makes the most sense to me.
Green Mage 💚
Tumblr media
This is the third job that are on peoples’ short list of a new caster job, but this is the one that I can see Hali picking up in the future, but maybe not as naturally as the first two. Unlike Time Mage and Geomancer where they share abilities and/or lore with Astrologian, Green Mage is not related to it in any way that I can see, besides it being a magic class. However, based on the information on the job from Tactics Advance 2, it is a support magic class, in which the caster debuffs enemies and buffs allies, so I find it more similar to Hali’s second canon job: Dancer. This is where I can see Hali wanting to master this job, as Hali is first and foremost a person who wants to heal and support her friends, and Green Mage seems like an excellent choice to do just that. It also seems like it could be implemented into the FFXIV lore through the Viera, as it was a job for the Viera previously.
~**~
This is all pure speculation of course, as no new jobs will be announced until the Fanfests later this year, but I just wanted to write all this out and have fun with imagining which new job Hali could have in the future.
If anyone has any thoughts on the jobs I talked about, or have another idea for a new casting job, please let me know! Thank you for reading!!

owl’s mgs fic rec list
I made a little fic rec list of my personal faves for MGS! If I add more, I will reblog with updates. You can find the fics linked under the cut.
If I know the author’s tumblr url, they are tagged :)
Pretty Face. by CannibalConsumer | Big Boss/Ocelot | NSFW | 1.8K words Quick summary: Sometime post Snake Eater, Big Boss and Ocelot meet again and Big Boss eats out a trans male Ocelot. Why I love it: I think it’s such a fun little smutty one shot that checks a lot of the Bosselot boxes for me. Big Boss is explicitly written to not be some sex god, which I hugely appreciate. He goes down on Ocelot and he’s pretty submissive about it, and Ocelot is still super obsessed with him. Light praise kink, face-fucking, Patriots Era...all the hits.
Virginia is for Lovers by bevmantle | Big Boss/Ocelot | NSFW | 5.4K words Quick summary: Set 6 years after Snake Eater, Ocelot shows up at Big Boss’s apartment in Arlington, VA hoping to have sex with him. It’s the first time for the both of them, and it’s all very less than ideal. Why I love it: I love a good awkward first time fic. It also addresses how sometimes you might be too tight to have penetrative sex and you can just find something else that works, which I super appreciate. There’s also the implication that Big Boss has invented Hamburger Helper, which is something I’ve accepted into my view of him.
Hospital Evenings in Bite Sized by @coffeemakesmeahappybean | SFW | Ocelot & OC | 1.7K Quick summary: Ocelot runs into a little girl at the hospital in Cyprus and befriends her. He tells her about witches and a special statue outside the hospital. Why I love it: I just love how Ocelot is somehow good with kids, both in canon and in this fic. It’s a very sweet and unexpected trait on someone who can inflict so much pain. I think its a challenge for writers to balance these two sides to him without it getting OOC, and this fic handles that line extremely well.
Never Too Big to Carry in Bite Sized by @coffeemakesmeahappybean | The Boss & Ocelot | SFW | 0.5K words Quick summary: The Boss carries a sleeping Major Ocelot. It’s her first time every carrying him. Why I love it: This is the shit that GETS ME. I am constantly thinking about the Boss’ relationship with Ocelot and how tragic it is. This fic really tugs at my heart strings in the right ways. The last light tears me up.
do you like me? yes/no by @lucky-draws | Big Boss/Ocelot | SFW | 2.4K words Quick summary: Ocelot passes notes to Big Boss during a Patriots’ meeting. Big Boss is slightly annoyed, but they get in quality time and daydreaming later in the day. Why I love it: Bittersweet fluff is my favorite type of fic. It’s cute and funny, but it’s also a fic where Big Boss wonders what it would be like to have a normal life with Ocelot. To quote 2011 tumblr...all the feels. (This also might have been the first MGS fic I ever read, if I recall correctly.)
awakening by @lucky-draws | Big Boss/Ocelot | SFW | 2.8K words Quick summary: Ocelot goes to see Big Boss for the first time after he wakes up from his coma Why I love it: This is just such a sweet little vignette. It touches on the heartbreak that Ocelot went through while BB was asleep. I’ve re-read this probably more than any other MGS fic.
Maybe It Was More Than That by berlynn_wohl | Kazuhira Miller/Venom Snake | NSFW | 9.0K words Quick summary: Kaz likes wearing lingerie, but hasn’t wore any since the destruction of MSF. A surprisingly medically-aware Snake is the first person he shares this with. Why I love it: I mean, off the bat, I just love fics with lingerie. Like if you look at the fics I write, “lingerie” is my most commonly used tag. But also, this fic gets my babygirl and his trauma and how he views his relationship with Snake. It also gives little hints to Kaz realizing that Snake is kinda different these days! This fic is 9K words, and I’m always so surprised by that when I reread it, because its pacing is just so perfect that it does not feel like that at all.
The Soul’s Undersong by wolvesofbrooklyn | Quiet/Venom Snake | SFW | 4.4K words Quick summary: Quiet and Venom warm up to one another through their shared love of music. Why I love it: This fic does such a good job of incorporating the music from the game into a narrative about Quiet and Venom’s relationship. You really see them fall in love over the course of just over 4,000 words. It’s sweet, it’s soft, it addresses the inevitable heartbreak they’ll have. There’s a forehead kiss. What else could you want?
the other side of despair by any_open_eye | Cécile Cosima Caminades/Kazuhira Miller, side Big Boss/Kazuhira Miller | NSFW | 2.5K words Quick summary: Cécile makes her own observations about Kaz and his relationship with Big Boss, as she starts to get involved with him herself. (Trigger warning for intimate partner violence) Why I love it: I mean, I love it by virtue of being a Kaz/Cécile fic, but it’s also a GOOD Kaz/Cécile fic. As much as I love BB, this fic definitely looks at him from a well-deserved angle of being an abusive figure. This fic has definitely informed how I write my own Kaz/Cécile fics, at least the 2 more angsty ones I have. I love the angle of Cécile shifting from naturalist to psychologist and watching Kaz in this. It’s just so good and there are so few Kaz/Cécile fics, and I’m so glad that this is one of them.
Cigarette by Gallahad | Can be read as Kazuhira Miller & Solid Snake or one-sided Kazuhira Miller/Solid Snake | SFW | 1.0K words Summary: Solid Snake shares his first cigarette with Master Miller after his first big failure while listening to Dolly Parton. Why I love it: I love Master Miller. I love Dolly Parton. I love the idea of Solid Snake not being sure if he has platonic admiration for Miller or if he has a crush on him, and how that shows just how young he is if he can still have puppy love crushes on teachers, because damn, we do send kids off to war, don’t we?

hate!!!! whats callie a little hater about? or whos,,,,? 👀
hate: What does your OC hate? Why? How do they act towards the object of their hatred?
Different things at different times. While she worked under Miyuki, she hated all the trials and tests that her Tallest would put her through. I haven’t decided how awful i want to get with this yet, but things like… being placed into graphic simulations of death and destruction just to make sure they work properly before using them as scare tactics for misbehaving Irkens? Most of the time Callie wouldn’t deserve it, though she did act out occasionally and get tossed into one on purpose.
In general, she hates being controlled in any way, being told what to do, and not being given the chance to be herself. This mostly stems from not being given much opportunity for any of this under Miyuki. (I’m sorry my Miyuki is a villain guys)
As for WHO, she hates Zim. Who doesn’t? Might as well add to the list but he did kill her somewhat accidentally. I mean. He also killed Miyuki, and in some backwards way she’s grateful for that later on. Also she hasn’t met him yet at the time of writing this, but she can’t fucking stand Invader Larb. For obvious reasons (Vort).
For how she acts, she doesn’t get very loud or verbally combative. She gets quiet and glares, and if you’re currently the object of her hatred you’ll feel it. And you should probably run because she’s not afraid to whip out the PAK legs and skewer you if you’ve wronged her enough (though this is rare).

Okay so I started writing down ideas as I was playing through the game and quickly realized there were gonna be too many to send as requests one by one. Plus I love everyone's writing I could never choose just one, so mass post it is! I wish I could write myself, but I only seem to have a knack for coming up with ideas and no way to put them into words.
I intended all of these to be Ominis x reader, but feel free to change them up if you'd like. They are also based off my own OC, but having them as reader-insert fics is fine so others can enjoy them (I personally have a hard time swapping out names for my own when reading fics). I'll be posting an infographic I made of my OC on my page as well if you do feel like using her [Link] (and I might just love you forever if you do) I'll likely add to the list when I get new ideas so check back often ❤️
Feel free to share as well, all I ask is that I get tagged in your work if you use one of my prompts ❤️
@darkwizardings @cafeacademia @fwooperfeathers @sebastianwallows @awkwardauthorwrites @gauntlysallows @gtgbabie0 @sammiesallow (Tagging you guys since its a lot and I know your requests are open ❤️)
(All can be gender neutral/low descriptions so everyone can enjoy the stories but I'll provide basics for my OC if needed/wanted; meant to follow along main story where reader is the MC)
(Small warning that I haven't really proofread or made any of these super pretty, they are just raw ideas I threw onto a notepad)
Personal Headcannons:
-Ominis' mother is still fairly loving (somewhat like the malfoy family)
- Ominis' blindness allows him to see light/dark and basic shapes, like someone with cataracts would see (the cloudy eyes already resemble this)
____________ Prompts ___________
Ominis visits home and his parents ask about the 5th year (they are pureblood from another well known family), the idea of arranging marriage gets thrown around
Reader bringing Ominis something from hogsmeade and Ominis doesnt know how to react to the kindness
reader/seb making "ominous" puns and Ominis being over it
Ominis noticing reader always leaving the castle/coming back hurt. Gives her a necklace/trinket/family heirloom to her for good luck so she stays safe
Ominis overhears reader talking to Sebastian and agreeing with Ominis about the dark arts being dangerous, confronts them later and thanks them
Reader warns Ominis of Sebastian's plan to visit the ruin to look for the relic. (hate that this isnt an option in the game, he literally asks us to do this 😭)
everyone trying to one up each other about the "adventures" they have gone on with reader, and everyone jesting that amits adventure of stargazing sounds more like a date, Ominis feels left out- maybe confronts reader and they plan an actual date? -OR- Ominis lies about having special "interactions" with reader (sfw) and reader hears the rumors
seb steals Ominis' wand while in hogsmeade, reader offers hers for him to be able to see even though Ominis is certain it won't work. Turns out to work but only if they are holding onto the wand together
defence against the dark arts class: a boggart is brought out and reader's fear is Sebastian/crucio curse (set after the sanctorium mission)
after seb and reader's fight in the undercroft (when he calls reader ignorant for knowing lodgok), reader runs off to the underground harbor to get away (its their safe space, where they can skip the rocks and listen to the water), while running there ominis passes reader but end up confronting seb about what happened before going to find reader
Ominis is self conscious about letting reader lead him around at times, so she makes sure to hold onto him so he still feels like the one leading
Reader telling Ominis about the ancient magic
Ominis and seb talking to reader about how the headmaster was acting strange- reader reveals it was actually them
Slytherin!reader having nightmares and sneaks to the boys dorms
after "in the shadow of the relic" and deciding to not turn in Sebastian, reader shows Ominis the room of requirement so they can have a space for just them (not ready to be around seb), introduces him to the phoenix
Aftermath of reader surviving the encounter with Rookwood, Ominis is concerned and refuses to leave the hospital wing for the night.
Hogwarts has a "parents" weekend and everyone is shocked that reader knows how to act all proper when the Gaunts introduce themselves
Reader has a tendency to not wear a jacket because they dont get cold easily
Ominis comforting reader after they fight ranrok and lose Fig
6th year- Ominis and reader pestering 1st years about mermaids
Reader and Ominis deciding what to do for the summer, reader offers to join him at his family's home
Reader overhears someone saying awful things about Ominis and how reader deserves better, but reader gets defensive and punches them?

Icarus canon & the Karmenverse
She Feels Like Home Series
I've tried to keep the Karmenverse as close to canon as I can bar the one very obvious glaring difference (the ending of S4). But I can easily write that off as "we still don't know what happens in S5. Maybe he does live." 🤷‍♀️
This is mainly for my own reference. I process things better out loud/written down and like to make lists like this for my own use. But I am also very lazy and probablyyyy not going to rewrite anything I've already written to update the Karmenverse canon to include the things I am keeping from Icarus. However, if anything in the keeping category fits into my newer works I’ll include it.
I thought I would leave my list here for anyone reading along that wants to know what I am keeping and ignoring since some of it will probably never have a chance to be mentioned. This is literally just how I’m treating the new information in regards to my Eddie x OC series that’s already half written. Not an attack on the book or the validity of it being included in canon.
This list may be updating at a later date because I’ve definitely forgotten somethings. These are just the biggest things I can think of after my first read.
Spoilers for Flight of Icarus ahead
Canon I'm keeping
The entire plotline with Eddie and his Dad.
Eddie’s parents names.
All of the Uncle Wayne canon and interactions between them.
Ronnie, to a lesser extent. She will be mentioned as a secondary bestie that leaves his life after she leaves for NYU. (only because in the Karmenverse Eddie already has a bestest friend - Joey) Ronnie might make an appearance once day.
Eddie working at the Hideout & Bev's character (might go ahead and change Shelly's name to Bev or at least mention Bev the next time Shelly shows up. 😏) I really loved Bev.
Paige's friendship and romantic interest in Eddie.
Eddie's interest in Paige
Paige inviting Eddie to live with her in Cali "as a roommate" with the hint of something more coming from it but no actual romantic relationship between them.
Reefer Rick in personality, appearance and how he meets Eddie/How Eddie starts dealing for him.
Eddie’s nickname being Junior and the fact that everyone loves Al Munson’s charm, the Munson Magic etc.
Canon I'm ignoring
Eddie's dalliance with the 2 girls before Paige - I've already spent a lot of energy writing about Karmen being Eddie's first kiss and sexual experiences and I ain't rewriting all that 😂 Eddie losing his virginity to Karmen and her being his first relationship is kind of a huge plot point through the series. If I hadn’t already spent several stories going on about Eddie’s “firsts” I would keep it because I think it would make for some sweet backstory angst. (The first story in the series is literally called Firsts. How can I add this in and have it make sense?)
The Paige romance plot. Same reason as above. So in the Karmenverse, they never actually get anywhere. They like one another but Paige is waiting for him to come to Cali to make her move and obviously that never happens. So they never even kiss. I loved the idea of Eddie crushing on her and never getting to actually go for it. Again with that sweet angst and what could have been.
Paige bailing Eddie out of jail. Idk why they didn’t give that honor to Uncle Wayne. So in the Karmenverse, it was Wayne that fronted the money.
Canon I’m unsure about at this time
I haven’t decided yet if I’m going to go with my original plan for Eddie’s Mum or if I will just go for the book plot. Al Munson is kind of similar to how I was planning on portraying Eddie’s Mum so I’m not sure if I want to bother going there since Eddie already has a parent that’s been in and out of his life forever. Seems cruel to give him 2 shitty parents of the same shitty variety… But since when has “being cruel” ever stopped me. 😅

Flips Whitefudge Headcanons:
So um, since I decided it be really interesting to ship Flips with my BB oc, Willow I thought it would be fun to list some headcanons. The more I can develop his character, the better it is for hypothetical shipping art. So here we go! 1. Flips Whitefudge's is not his legal name, only his rapper name. His legal name is Philip J. (James) van Tripp
2. He's 29 going on 30 soon. Hip hop became his and his mother's whole thing when he was 11 1/2 years old. 3. His favorite snack is white chocolate covered pretzels (big shocker I know!)
4. Flips lives with his mother until his dancing and/or rapping career takes off. He's not a complete slacker though and does try to help around the house when he's not completely distracted with his hip hop aspirations (which is admittingly almost all the time).
5. He's desperate for dance battles during his mom's hip hop classes because any time he's tried to enter a dance battle on the streets, no one takes him seriously.
6. Whitefudge was originally an insult from his younger years that made fun of his cringy attempts at being street that Flips reworked to being part of his identity in a positive way.
7. Even though hip hop dancing is his main passion, he also dabbles in beatboxing, rap battles, and is a graffiti appreciator.
8. Shelly is a single parent and got her son and herself deeply invested in hip hop 18 1/2 years ago as a trauma response to Flips' father leaving them (can't decide if I want it to be abandonment or death though). That's right, I'm making the cringy humor of Shelly and Flips linked to angst. Why can't I let just things not be that deep?! 9. "Malibu's Most Wanted" is Flips' favorite so-bad-it's-good, guilty pleasure movie to watch every now and then. He will deny any resemblance to him and the main character though. (Any time I see Flips I think of that movie even though I haven't seen it in years. So I might as well connect it to him.) XD
10. Shelly and Flips love watching "The Fresh Prince of Bel Air" and "Living Single" together. (Full disclosure, I never seen "Living Single" I just picked 90s sitcoms that were centered around a hiphop/rap artists. I love Fresh Prince though.) In general, their tv majority of the time stays on the BET channel or MTV (though they still mourn the lack of music videos on the channel). 11. Shelly bans Flips from practicing any breakdancing moves that involves his head being upside down to avoid potential neck breaking. She will lift the ban when she sees her son be able to do other intense break dancing moves without literally breaking anything. 12. Flips often thinks about joining Jairo's capoeira classes to help improve his hip hop/break dancing skills but has yet to have fully commit and finally join.
13. Flips and Shelly are one of those people that unironically dab, unfortunately. 14. Flips tried to be a disc jockey a few times in his life but he never got passed doing more than small events like school dances. 15. Despite appearing confident and charming, Flips is not so great at the dating game. Most potential partners find him way too extroverted or too focused on hip hop that it's basically his only character trait, which makes him annoying. He tries not to let it get to him though because he likes himself and that's all that matters. Someday someone will be able to handle all of him, he hopes so anyway. Okay, that's all the headcanons I can think of for him so far. I hope you find them amusing or potentially useful. Maybe I'll edit this post later to add more headcanons. Only time will tell. Thank you to all who read my ramblings. lol
