Hiii!!! GIGS in Space AU Once Again on my mind so heres a quick plot rundown allll put in one post
If you read through this all i love you <3
Tumblr media
If not, have this grian doodle anyways
So Grian, Scar, Impulse, and Skizz are all prisoners in this like,,, dystopian space society. All are imprisoned for different reasons:
- Grian is a vandalist, doing graffiti and setting minor explosions around different government/company sites. When arrested and asked why he does what he does, he claims "it's about the principal"
- Impulse worked as a mechanic for a major company, but an incident resulting in a death and 3 injuries gets wrongfully pinned on him. He still believes that all circumstances surrounding his arrest are just one big misunderstanding. The company, however, doesnt care.
- Skizz is a hacker, and good at it too. He logs into the system of the same company Impulse worked for, and subsequently gets caught red-handed.
- Nobody knows why Scar is arrested. There are many rumors spread around the prison wing that he and Grian are in that Scar is Secretly A Mob Boss for the Con Corp. family. But surely someone so clumsy and silly cant possibly be so powerful, right? thats what Grian thinks, anyways.
So these doofuses have two options.
1. they can serve their sentence rotting in a shitty space prison with Nothing To Do and being forced into manual labor
2. they can get out slightly earlier after enough time spent doing Community Service
They go for the second one, which Happens to be gathering extraterrestrial data for Impulse's old Company (i need a name for it dear god its ridiculous at this point). So after all independently choosing the community service option, they get grouped into a squad of the four of them and get sent out to different semi-abandoned planets to hunt monsters/ghosts/aliens and collect data. What they eventually figure out is that the reason they are given so much freedom with their community service is that they are not intended to survive. They devise an escape plan and on their third mission together, they successfully escape together.
Its important to note that Scar and Grian came from the same cell block, so Grian decides to tell Skizz and Impulse about the mob boss rumors (as a prank, of course), and warns them that Scar Doesn't Like Swearing. basically scaring everyone into facing these cosmic horrors with a PG attitude
So the GIGS escape with a real shitty spacecraft and are on the run from the government (theres no way they're gonna succeed like this) up until they get captured. but not by the government.
They get captured by morally gray, filthy rich, weapons manufacturer Doc. (or his hitman at least, one Geminitay)
Doc explains to the GIGS that he has paid all of their bail fees, and now they must work off their debt to him. as delivery boys.
Doc enlists Gem to look after the GIGS during their deliveries. Gem Does Not Like This but shes not gonna say no to her boss.
Basically the rest of it is a silly stupid sci fi sitcom about funny found family doing goofy delivery missions and learning more about each other along the way.
Oh, and remember those rumors about Scar? Theyre all true. And there are Consequences for his absence in the family....
Heres some extra little character notes:
- While Impulse believes his arrest was a genuine mistake at first, during their second bout of community service, he and skizz discover how little the company actually cares about its employees and Impulse gets real mad that his entire livelihood is a lie and goes ham and wrecks some shit (good for him)
- Gem was taken in by Doc at a very young age, with life-threatening injuries. Doc used his experience with mad sciencery to fix her up with whatever he had on hand, mostly animal parts. now shes a hybrid.
- Gem sees Doc as a father figure, but has No Clue how to express that so from her perspective shes just Really Loyal to her boss and doing nothing more than paying off a life debt.
- Grian has a mycelium infection running up his arm that he keeps secret from everyone else. the first in the group to find out about it is Gem
- Scar uses mobility aids of many varieties, but mostly uses a cane with robotic leg splints on missions
Anyways thats all for now, if you wanna see some more doodles and stuff you can look around my gigs in space tag!!

Dorcas knew something was wrong when Evan showed up at her door one night. At the start of the war, right before she graduated all three of her-the boys took the dark mark. She wanted, desperately, for there to be more to the story, but if there was they never told her. So when she found out she was furious told them all she never wanted to speak to them ever again, and the only time they would see her face is from behind bars or in a shallow grave. They respected that and before she knew it, its been over a year and she missed them like she misses a limb. but she does not regret her decision.
So when one night evan shows up alone, dorcas knows something is wrong. she nearly curses him outright when he asks to come in but he offers his wand to her and doesn't even flinch when she rips it out of his hand. idly she considers snapping it. Evan didn't look good, he was more wirey than before the war and he looked depressed. his eyes were red.
he came into her apartment and looked around in curiosity, right he had never seen her apartment they had stopped speaking a week before she moved in. he sat on her couch and she pretended not to be hurt about how right it felt to have him here. then he spoke, "We wanted to tell you, I swear we did but he told us that if you knew and someone found out you would be a target. You and marlene and your family. We tried Dorcas we tried so fucking hard but were losing and we don't know what to do and you, your the most powerful witch we know and Reg-" he rambled frantically and when he tried to say Regulus' name his voice broke and Dorcas was filled with this horrible sense of dread. She knew why Evan was here but she didn't want to believe it. She needed to hear it out loud but merlin she didn't want to.
"Evan, what are you doing here."
"Regulus is dead."
"Oh."
And the worst part is, Dorcas knew, they all knew that Regulus would not make it through this war. One way or another, no matter what side, this always ended with Regulus dead. She feels a stab of resentment for the dead boy.
"Were spies, we um have been for years. Regulus stole something from Voldemort, he uh he died to get it. He told us if he didn't make it back to bring it to you, that you would have the power to destroy it. It's with Pandora at the moment, we try to keep it moving so theres less of a chance it can be tracked, but we wanted to tell you now. I'm sorry. And I'm sorry I had to be the one to tell you, I know you never wanted to see me again but Pandora is telling Sirius and Barty the Potters." Evan was crying, and he was desperately trying to hide it. Then Dorcas realized she was crying to. They sat there and cried and cried, it could have been for hours the two of them cried.
She clears her throat and looks at the clock, "Marlene will be home soon, you should leave. And uh tell Pandora she, alone, can bring whatever it is over tomorrow afternoon." Dorcas wants to forgive them but she can't, not yet. And Regulus is dead, it doesn't feel real except for the way it's all too real.
Evan nods, "of course, whatever you need." he holds his hand for his wand and turns towards the door when he gets it, but hesitates. "I know I have no right to ask this, but Cas, can I have a hug?"
She's up before he finishes his sentence and pulling him into a hug "Sure Ev." she whispers into his ear as she rocks them, their the same height now, she used to have an inch on him. he huffs what might be a laugh. and before she knows it their letting go and he's almost out the door.
"See ya around Meadowes?"
"See you around Rosier."
And then he's gone and if she closes her eyes she can pretend that he was never here at all. That somewhere in the world the three boys are out there getting drunk and ruining peoples lives and growing up without her. The boys are spies and lied to her for years and Regulus is dead. She sinks down the closed door and sobs.
(She never does see Evan around, he died two months later)

baby fever part 2
Austin!Elvis x reader;
Summary: you and Elvis have been married
For about 3 years now and he thinks its time for a baby
Tw/mentions: pregnancy morning sickness  uh ye that’s about it
It’s been 3 weeks since you and Elvis first tried. For a baby you’re period was supposed to come up 3 days ago but it didn’t. not that you really noticed that in the first place. It was Wednesday morning.  Elvis could sleep in seeing he didn’t have to be in the recording studio till one so now you were laying in bed you’re husbands arm draped over you
As you felt a sudden wave of nausea wash over you. You slowly got up not to wake you’re sleeping husband knowing he needed his rest. As soon as you got up you made your way to the bathroom where you kneeled down before the toilet and everything you ate the day before came it’s way back up. It had been about 35 minutes now you were just resting against the cold bathroom wall as you heard footsteps approach the bathroom.
You heard a soft “y/n baby…are you aight in there?” Elvis asked worried. You let out a soft grunt as you got up and made you’re way out of the bathroom. And walked downstairs without even looking.
At your husband and made your way down to the kitchen to. make breakfast for Elvis he walked down into the kitchen after getting dressed “what’s going on sweetheart…cat’s got your tongue?” he asked with concern in his voice as he. Wrapped his arms around you you couldn’t hold the act up anymore and started to giggle turning to face your husband . Elvis looked at you worried “hey hey quite foolin with me mama cmon” he sighed slightly annoyed “I’m pregnant” you.
Said making his eyes go wide “YOU’RE PREGNANT” he erupted and picked you up spinning you around. You laughed and yelped “Elvis put me down!!” you yelled as he did. And crotched down kissing you’re stomach eyes filled with tears “hi there darlin”
he whispered to you’re stomach. You smiled down at him slowly stroking his hair. He looked up at you “thank you mama’s” he whispered tearing up you kneeled  to his level. “Hey..hey don’t cry love” you whispered wiping his tears he chuckled and smiled stroking your cheek “I just… I can’t believe’ we’re actually doing this.. we are actually Havin a little one..baby I promise you I’m gonna be the best daddy to them I swear!” he exclaimed making you giggle as he kissed you.  You made him breakfast as he got ready to go to the recording studio
As he arrived to the studio he walked in with a huge grin on  his face. Making everyone wonder what was going on. Yet you’re husband got to work instead waiting for everyone important to him to be there to share the big news. After an hour or so everyone who needed to be there was there and he started of looking at his friends and family “we have some news….”
He said not being able to contain his smile before. Anyone could even ask what the news was he erupted into joyful laughter and yelled ”she’s pregnant boys! Imma be a daddy!” he laughed as everyone cheered and congratulated him.
Except the colonel who wasn’t as happy as anyone else he honestly didn’t. Seem happy at all he never thought Elvis was to start a real family he barely even thought he’d actually marry you. But he knew one thing for sure. He’d do everything in his power to make this one bumpy ride
But all that mattered at this moment was that you. And Elvis were on cloud 9 with a little Presley on the way and Elvis was going to make sure no one could get you of it anytime. Soon
Tumblr media

Okay this is partly going to be a train of thought but here’s some ideas on what I’m gonna do for the Tearcrown event in my au.
First half is pretty much the same, maybe a bit more time dedicated to lord oyster and white pearl getting to know each other and be adorable pining idiots doomed by the narrative, also establishing Tearcrown is allied with sugartaria. Since my gem mermaid lore directly connects them to that place, namely octopus cookie. So it’d make sense they’d be Allies
So second half, I want to spend a bit more more time to establish lord oyster’s pressure to succeed. To do right by their family. And their struggle with wether to keep the pearl or sell it. Establish it’s precious to them but also they really need to do right by their family. Also establish it’s their poor negotiation skills that’s making other trade families turn away, because they can see a sinking ship from a mile away and let’s be real lord oyster is a daydreaming optimist who’s heart is somewhere out at sea, they think they’re unreliable at best and a fool at worst.
And abalone decides to use that when he asks for the pearl to be sold to him. Just establish it clearly that it’s lord oyster who’s making bad opportunities and no major outside influence is there.
I want to make it clear that lord oyster does still have the opportunity to turn things around for themselves and their family, it’d take a lot of work and time but they can.
But abalone’s offer is quicker and more secure. They just need to sell something precious to them to do so.
Back with the gem mermaids and skipping ahead a bit, we get to abalone’s attack and white pearl realizing abalone has her pearl.
And she is not happy.
Lord oyster follows and found her to explain but it quickly becomes an argument.
Why if all cookies did they give her pearl to HIM to the very cookie trying to kill her and her family? Destroy her home? She might have understood if they needed to sell it but why to abalone of all people!
Lord oyster tries to justify with having to do good by their family, but white pearl calls them out, they could have fought harder for their family, and she’d have never sold out lord oysters family to ensure her own was secure!
It doesn’t matter, even when lord oyster swears to return the pearl to her, the trust is broken.
It’s over, she has woken up from her dream.
And her people are under attack.
She says goodbye, she tried to drown them but she can’t bring herself to do so, she tells them to flee, and to never speak to her again. Lord oyster is heartbroken and realizing they done fucked up.
Their moon is gone and it’s all their fault.
The battle continues, sea fairy raises the tower of frozen waves, but uh she doesn’t freeze up there, she doesn’t have the curse at this point. But she is sorta stuck up there because it took a lot of energy to build a structure like this so she’s out of the fight for now.
White pearl sees her family and home attacked, sees her close companion frilled jellyfish killed. She feels helpless and weak.
She takes a nasty blow from a harpoon, and her sisters witness this, they believe she is dead as they cannot reach her and the last they saw of her was being mortally wounded and sinking to the rubble.
Something in white pearl snaps, she wishes to be strong enough to destroy the land cookies attacking her home. She no longer wants to be helpless. In her injured state, she gets an idea, and claws her way towards the chambers of the sea fairy tear
She goes to the sea fairy tear and consumes its power.
A combination of that and her own magic corrupting due to her emotional state, she becomes black pearl and destroys the cookies attacking Tearcrown, flooding the place with her dark storms. She tears abalone cookie to shreds.
The magic force exerted from this shift casts magic so potent you can feel it.
Black pearl declares she will kill all who enter her path, and the oyster bloodline will die by her hand, casting a curse onto the family. Unintentionally also tieint lord oyster and abalone to this curse, which will result in them both being ghosts when they die.
Crimson coral and the survivors witness this sea monsters wrath, they don’t even consider this is white pearl, they believe black pearl is a sea monster the ocean summoned to wipe out the invaders. The rest of Tearcrown falls as a result of this attack.
They find frilled jellyfish, who’s got the amnesia from coming back to life, and they flee. But frilled jellyfish stays.
She feels called to the place… someone important is waiting for her. The others can’t stop her.
The gem mermaids and all surviving mermaids and critters flee to sugartaria to regroup and figure out what to do next.
Meanwhile black pearl begins her campaign of wrath
I will state, black pearl isn’t stuck in the waters around Tearcrown, not yet. She’s free to go wherever but she lingers here first so she can gather minions and plan.
Frilled jellyfish approaches and even though she can’t recall why she feels compelled to serve black pearl. She becomes her right hand and the first minion to black pearl. Even getting a bit of her power to do so.
Lord oyster goes home, and somewhere down the line gets their hands on the pearl again, but it’s darkened and lost its pure shine… they keep it but are too much of a coward to return it, focusing on growing the family fortunes and trying to find fulfillment there but never really achieving that. They become someone unrecognizable to the well meaning but foolish cookie they were before.
And abalone becomes a ghost. Creeping closer to something like a sea monster as years go by.
Aaaand that’s what I got

Sneak peaks!
Lovely readers, supporters, and friends, as you know, summer is fast approaching. And you know what that means?
More time for writing!
So, I wanted you to give you guys some sneak peaks at some projects I have planned for this coming up summer!
1. Sagitta 🏹🪶🌌🌳 (title may change later)
I am so incredibly excited to announce that I have planned a Jake Sully x Reader. Sagitta is going to be a retelling of Avatar, in which a y/n insert takes the place of Neytiri. Written mostly from the perspective of Jake Sully, and getting to see Pandora through his eyes.
I’m very excited for this one because it’s almost impossible to find a Jake sully x reader fic that isn’t smut, much less a story with multiple chapters and an actual plot. So I’ve taken it upon myself to write one.
2. pareidolia 🌄🪸🌺
Lo’ak Sully is an irreligious person. An agnostic when it comes to the worship of the great mother eywa. How can he? What has Eywa ever done for him? Lo’ak was never really one to believe in forces beyond explanation. Omens, angels, powers beyond his reach. And yet, his mind always wondered off the ground.
When Lo’ak and his family are forced away from the only home they’ve ever known, he meets Y/n. A woman whom held the position of right hand to the Tsahik of the Metkayina. A warrior, healer, a prodigy.
How could the stars not align for him when this embodiment of the sun and all its glory stood before him? The sun. The greatest star his universe had ever known.
3. ostranenie🪻🌑💫🌱
Kiri swears your life mission is to do 2 things.
1. Make terrible attempts at flattery.
2. Make her secretly enjoy it.
You’re a scientist and whose parents died fighting with Jake. You went through the transfer of consciousness at 13, a process that nearly killed you, but as persistent as you were, you always found a way back. You’ve grown up with Kiri, and with the both of you now facing the age of 19, unknown feelings find themself embedded within her. You’ve always flirted with her in a playful manner. You and your stupid, stupid smile and beautiful eyes..But what happens when she starts to wish for it to be genuine?
Or is it already real?…
3. Pavonine 🦚🪘🪬
Ao’nung. The prissy, mermaid bitch boy who enjoyed making your life miserable. Born to the Tayrangi clan, your parents died in the first war. Jake and Neytiri have raised you as their own from a young age. But what happens when your home is threatened? The return of Quaritch and his January 6th squad has turned your life inside out, upside down; and fucked it in the ass.
Great. just great.
Arriving at the metkayina islands was a breath of fresh air. You felt at home again. You always felt a bit misplaced in the forest, and you missed your seaside life with the Tayrangi.
What happens when a certain prince of the sea finds himself attracted to the woman who he’s 98% positive would murder him if she had the chance??

Okay, but what if a Decepticon sparked up an Autobot or vice versa? Whether Decepticon!s/o or Autobot!s/o, I just want to hear your thoughts on the general shenanigans that would follow
I'm so torn about this one because it has Thundercracker's SO in the Autobot hands series written all over it. It has so many shenanigans in it.
Thundercracker with a Con!SO (it's a starting point)
Wankformers with Optimus guilty wank over Ratchet's high-priority patient since the Matrix is starting to focus on the TC's SO's carriage
Con!carrier went into heat inside the Ark's walls and Jazz hunting them
Context on why Con!carrier is an Autobot "guest"
General shenanigans after Con!carrier got shoved into Optimus' hab
Optimus having some one-on-one time with a newspark Seeker
Optimus contemplating the Matrix's influences and its weird preferences
A short reunion between SO and TC as he recovers from Quintessons
The Matrix has babies. The Matrix wants more babies. So, of course, it will take advantage of the only carrier that's ripe for the picking in its Prime's direct vicinity. (Insert It's free real estate meme on Matrix's quest to increase bitty presence after 4 million+ years of inactivity. ) It has no shame whatsoever to whisper or directly exert its influence. If it could laugh, it would crackle like a 90s evil anime girl at a mere baffle being enough to stop its almighty power.
I swear to Primus it will end up with an armistice because of all the sparklings with Elita and Megatron kicking each other's afts during family movie nights, while Starscream heckles at both as all the kids climb on Optimus, you, and Thundercracker. Skywarp is knocked out by all the good contraband booze since he handled the sugar rush.
OR, I raise you a new G1 scenario for more ridiculous shenanigans: Undercover!Jazz, aka Ricochet, with Con!Booty call that got sparked prior to the crash, gets caught by the Autobots, and completely denies that Jazz-is-Ricochet and truly believes they are split-spark twins. You're so firm with that false belief that it gets to the point that others actually question if Jazz does have a brother since he can't exactly prove, nor disprove without burning his covers.
It would explain some of his quirks, goes the rumor mill. Jazz is beyond frustrated and honestly impressed by the sheer gall. Ratchet is frothing at your refusal to budge out of the cell. And you would like to return to your cold berth on the dilapidated warship under the sea.

Guyssss...
Okay, babe, deep breath.
Done?
Good.
Let's roll
WTF is happening? I swear to god a month ago I was checking this hashtag for updates like my life depended on it, and I had great plans for my wip's and everyone was making predictions about what the vault might contain.
Then I tell myself to start making some headway with my studies because exams are breathing down my neck and I (somehow) manage to keep away from this fandom that has been my life and blood for so long. AND ALL HELL BREAKS LOSE!!
Now we know that there are THREE books related to this fandom coming out this year and we might get Toby and Hannah and I'm so excited!
But there are two characters who have my undivided attention atm and I want to talk about them!
So now we have all the main characters, I'm so thrilled that Rohan is one of them because his story is so intriguing to me and it also adds to some much needed Indian or Pakistani (though most prob Indian) representation.
Just think about the kind of background he must have come from, let that blow your mind!
I know that he is going to have a real tragic backstory. Think something involving childhood abandonment or abuse or (most probably) separation from his loving family, coming to London, being faced with the HUGE cultural shock and the nail biting cold and relentless rain. Add to this: making sense of the weird accent. Being picked off the street to do some odd work for the Devil's Mercy. Slowly getting to know it's secrets and rising among its ranks till he reached Factotum. Falling for Zella (first love, maybe?), having his heart broken.
AND THEN HAVING HIS TITLE STRIPPED AT THE END!
CAN YOU FEEL THE BAD BLOOD ENERGY RISING?
'cause baby now we got bad blood...
I also believe that often things are not so one dimensional and that Zella is nothing short of deserving the position. She has undeniably had her struggles with gaining the power she now holds and being a woman of colour in a royal household. But I'm focusing of Rohan here, maybe I'll make a detailed post about Zella sometime later?
These are all only theories, but I can't help thinking that it's going to be something along these lines.
And then there's the fact that Jameson is not going to be a main character (*crying emoji cause I cant seem to insert one of the proper size*) Like he has so many unfinished threads and so much family drama to sort out.
We never got to see an independent confrontation of Ian over how he used Jameson to get what he wanted, or anything about the Prague mystery!!
And I know this might be a bit controversial with some of you, but I really want to see him and Avery fight. Because ofc they are a power couple and express their love to each other in such creative ways. BUT, but you get to know so much about a character when you see their world shifting, when the one thing that they believed to be an anchor is uprooted. How they act when the other is out of orbit. AND WE SIMPLY HAVEN'T SEEN THAT FOR JAMESON. I also might be holding out for a very hot romantic make up later on, but my point stands.
So there's my little (rather late) bit, but still.
Also to those who have read my work and have been so kind to shower me with kudos and comments, I want to apologise profusely. There is a lot to come, but just not at this moment when exams are leeching the life out of me, and trust me when I say I have the most elaborate plans for the future!
Like always, can't wait to hear all your brilliant thoughts. Have a good day/night (depending on whatever time zone you guys are in)
Also please check out Lockwood and Co if you have the time because it's something that I can't stop thinking about and would love to talk about. As an added bonus, one of the mc is kinda like Jameson (and that's how you know I have a type)

I believe the villains in Owl House got screwed over because Dana disliked writing them. Belos was stripped of his complexity, ignoring his lore, Kikimora was reduced to a joke, and the Collector was transformed from a malicious, cruel person to an innocent kid who only wanted friends. It feels like Dana doesn’t enjoy writing villains.
So I don't think it's that Dana hates villains. I think it's that the TOH writers had no interest in writing an adventure series. Because of how much time is wasted, even in S2B, purely on romance and schoolkids being schoolkids (Them's the Breaks still has no point to exist after all) and how the villains are barely there outside of something to beat at the end of an episode, it kind of feels like the crew just wanted to do a magical school show which makes the supposed claim that Hexide was Disney mandated hilarious.
This actually also goes for the characters too though. A real adventure show would care about its power levels, its tricks and tools and actually showing the growth of our characters as fighters, not just as people. TOH... doesn't. Willow's big gimmick when she's first introduced is that she is incredibly powerful but can't control it. Then THREE EPISODES LATER, in the first episode that has Willow in it for more than a minute, it's resolved. Period. Until fucking S3. At that point, she is all powerful. Luz is all powerful by the beginning of S2, literally three episodes after she got her last glyph. Arguably, by Young Blood, Old Souls because she kicks the shit out of the entire Conformatorium in that one.
Even before then, most villains show up, cause a slight problem and then are quickly defeated after the character moment that the show setup with the conflict is resolved because their purpose is not as villains, it's just for the sake of it being an adventure show. Even the creatures of the Isles are for this purpose. That's also why most villains in TOH get like MAYBE three minutes of screen time at most. This would actually be okay if interesting things were being done with the characters but... Well, Luz goes through the same lesson multiple times in S1 about not taking cheats for magic and listening to Eda, almost ALL of King's plotlines in S1 are just repetitions of "Maybe don't see people as disposable pawns?" until S2 it's all "FAMILY!" until he's unrecognizable from his S1 counterpart. Then Gus has shades of self confidence issues in ALL of his episodes and never anything else. Then in S2 we have Hunter who is just mostly there in his episodes and learning constantly, "Maybe... Maybe friends are nice?" rather than actually challenging his world views and making him grow that way. That's also why I claim the show actively ships him with every girl his age.
It ironically makes the fact that TOH is so split in its identity feel like a necessity for the writers to have had more than at best two season's worth of material. With how much they recycle plot points, characters, etc. like that, of course it wastes time because it has no idea what to do with the amount of time it had.
Ignoring Belos' lore though is a different problem that has to do with his role as the big bad clashing with this, because he can't just be a slight obstacle to be overcome or else he looks like a joke like Kikimora or the coven heads came off as, but also that... Well, the show was ending.
So because they had nothing to do in S3 to keep audience interest because S2 had wrapped up too much, they leaned hard into saying "We have a complex villain, we swear," to keep people theorizing and invested in the show until the third special came out and the show went "JK LOL! We need to wrap this shit already. BYE!" Like they KNEW they didn't have the time, it's ENTIRELY on them to have focused so hard on Belos and then pulled the rug out from under everyone but...
But that's also just the normal trick of TOH. Here's the golden guard. No wait, he's a sad but mad boy, let's wrap this up. Here's a bully character who has deep ties to wanting the status quote to stay and should have a dozen anxieties about liking Luz. Never mind, none of that mattered, she's actually a good girl and has no issues getting into love besides the basic question of 'will she say yes?' Here is the ex-coven head for the EC who got betrayed and hurt by Belos while trying to just be a good sister fi- ISN'T HER TRAUMA HILARIOUS!?
If Dana disliked writing the villains, frankly, that means she disliked writing 90% of the show because most parts of the show aren't actually any better than the villains. They just got more screentime.

Any fic where derek is trapped in his wolf form, stiles meets him for the first time and has no idea he s a werewolf but somehow ends up helping him change back anyway? I crave long angsty fics
For sure.
Tumblr media
From the Ashes by 2Lot
(4/? I 3,057 I Not Rated)
After hunters kill his pack Derek is running with kid Erica and Isaac, the last of his family, hiding in wolf form in a forest. After an attack, Stiles finds the two pups in the woods and takes them home to take care of them. Derek searches for them, first worried that Stiles is a threat, and then worried that Stiles might be something else altogether.
Like A Beast by Brego_Mellon_Nin
(1/1 I 5,120 I Explicit)
“Um, what... Is that a real wolf? He isn’t... that isn’t a normal werewolf,” the boy stuttered, pulse hammering along.
Peter snorted, “The moron ran afoul of a witch and got himself cursed. She was a rather imaginative lady. Made it so he’d have to have wolfy sex in order to lift the curse. I think her exact words were ‘If you insist on behaving like a beast, I’m gonna make sure you have to fuck as one!’ Isn’t that about right, Derek?”
Derek glared as best he could, ears turned back and teeth showing.
Between Heaven and Hell by JazzyNym
(1/4 I 6,666 I Mature)
Derek's lost everything, and deals with it by giving into his wolf and choosing to leave the world behind. Stiles, back home in Beacon Hills after growing up away at boarding schools, is trying to figure out where he fits into this new life.
They're both not doing great. But then they find each other.
Callously Cursed by one-fandom-became-all-fandoms (Sara36913)

Derek Hale was an elusive man—at least, that's what everyone in Beacon Hills believed.
Stiles wanted to get to the bottom of it all. What he got instead for his troubles was a minor heart attack, a black wolf repeatedly helping him and a new mystery to solve.

“Should I make out the wedding invitations?”
Stiles swallowed his mouthful of soda.”What?”
Lydia smirked. “Well, you and Derek have seemed awfully cozy lately. Just wanted to be supportive.”
“Oh, yeah, because that’s exactly why I went into wildlife preservation.” He rolled his eyes. “Beastiality jokes.”

Aka the one where Derek is a wolf and Stiles is his trainer, and then magic and transformations and feelings happen.
Thanks for Thumper, But I Prefer Cheeseburgers by isthatbloodonhisshirt (wasterella)
(1/1 I 58,399 I Teen)
The wolf’s head whipped around so fast, Stiles felt like he was watching The Exorcist.
Stiles wondered if he could just stand still enough to make the wolf think he was a tree. A very bright red and jean-clad tree. He doubted it, but one could hope.
He knew it was a lost cause when the wolf turned fully, lips pulled back from its sharp teeth—so very sharp, good fucking Lord!—and began walking towards Stiles.
“I didn’t see anything!” Stiles shouted, both hands out in front of himself and sweat instantly breaking out across his skin. “I swear to you! I didn’t see anything! I didn’t see anything! I won’t tell anyone! I won’t! I’ll keep this to myself, until the day I die! I promise! I promise!”
Where You Still Remember Dreaming by yodasyoyo 
(15/15 I 95,612 I Explicit)
“What’s your name? I can’t keep calling you Balto.”
“What’s yours?”
“Stiles.”
Derek raises an eyebrow. That isn’t his real name. There’s no way. But now he thinks about it, he has a vague memory of someone, probably Uncle Peter, telling him that with the fae, names have power. “I’m Miguel,” he says.
“Lie.”
“Are you trying to tell me your real name is Stiles?”
Stiles runs his tongue across his teeth and considers Derek carefully. “Fair enough,” he says, “Miguel it is.”
Grabbing his groceries and pocketing the change, Derek turns to leave; he’s nearly at the door when Stiles calls out, “By the way, Miguel, if you’re interested, it’s two for one on bags of kibble at the pet store down the street.”
Derek doesn’t look back, doesn’t hesitate, just raises a hand and flips him off on the way out.
Where the Real Beasts Are by kaistrex (weishen)

Chestnut Stud Across the Multiverse: Friendship with Benefits is Magic!!
Tumblr media
18 sat on the couch amused as she sipped her coffee, watching the scene happening across from her. Sitting the sofa opposite from her were a pair of local Satan City girls she’d become well acquainted with known by their names Dash and AJ, the latter often called Rainbow due to her eye catching skittle coloured hair hairstyle which was among her most eyecatching qualities especially when compared to her more Southern Belle sounding companion. Whereas Dash was a tanned, toned athletic tomboy, AJ was a thicc,powerful brick house woman mountain. Standing close to 7 foot plus yet having the kind of qualities and curves that not only made it clear she was a woman, but a damn fine hot piece of ass of one at that. Dash was a freelance jack of all trades athlete who especially excelled at the kind of events that called for speed and agility while AJ did a lot of heavylifting and manual labour working and helping out at her family's apple farm. Now if you were to ask 18, she could swear you'd think these 2 were possibly lovers or pending to be because the sexual tension between them was clearly so obvious. She could feel it even as she looked on with bemusement at how the tomboy and farm girl glared at each other trying to lazerburn holes through one another's skulls. Putting her coffee cup down on the table as she caught their attention, a sly grin on her face. "Just remind me, what exactly are you two arguing about?” She enquired, intrigued to wonder what brought them her way this fine day.
Dash simply huffed and pouted,crossing her arms under her toned perky tits as AJ cleared her throat a bit, a little miffed herself as she began to speak with that distinct drawl of hers. It was such a sensual and distinct voice in its own particular way. “Well a certain somebody,I won’t name names…” the suntanned freckled blonde quipped,rolling her eyes as did Dash because of course they knew who she was referring to. But god forbid they get into another argument rather than not get to the point. “…..said that she could do better than me at satisfying a guy and out last me and him and still have enough energy to run a marathon, if you can believe thst kind of hogwash…” it was clear AJ most certainly did not, that was for sure. 18 amused as she caught Dash giving the farm girl a dirty glare. Oh if looks could kill, as the skittles haired tomboy retorted. AJ rolling her eyes no doubt expecting some words while 18 relished the comedy gold like the cheeky minx she was.
“Puh-lease, it’s so obvious when you think about it. Sure farm girl and me can handle win lose or draw at any games or sports,I can handle that. But when it comes to sex? I could not only handle the biggest stud BUT make empty him out and still be the last girl standing.” She sounded so damn confident, everything about her radiated it with absolute certainty. To such AJ responded by giving her the most deadpan look imaginable, much to 18’s constant amusement. Seeing that the tomboy and farm girl were looking set to have another verbal spar, 18 cleared her throat as she got their attention. Drinking her coffee down to the last drop as she placed her cup down with a sense of finality as the deadly beauty made sure they were focused on her, she grinned a mysterious smile that those who knew her meant she was most certaimly,absolutely up to no good what so ever. She had an idea, an awful idea, a wonderful idea. An awfully wonderful, wonderfully awful idea and oh what perfect timing, here was her husband just coming back in from his recent shift at the department. The blonde feeling her spine tingle, god how hot he looked in that uniform and his arrival could only be such a case of right man,at the right place and the right time.
Tumblr media
“Well ladies it seems to me there is only one real way to settle this debate of yours.” 18 spoke with a cool,calm manner as Dash and AJ looked at her,curious and puzzled as to what she had in mind. Krillin none the wiser as he hummed and whistled a little tune before she reached out and gently but firmly grabbed him by the shoulder, pulling him close to her. Her hubby looking so adorable with that confused, puzzled expression on his face as she resumed her quip. "And my man here will be the perfect judge for you..." A sensual tease to her tone as she reached down with her free hand to grab and squeeze his junk, making him clench his teeth and widen his eyes, while AJ and Dash blushed, clearly catching onto what 18 was implying. Krillin of course recovered from his bout of shock and confusion to give his cyborg wife the most look imaginable. To which 18 simply purred snd grinned as she kissed the side of his face, a side glance shot to Dash and AJ as she undid her man’s buckle and fly, the sound of the zipper keeping their attention before their eyes soon beheld the exposed sight of Krillin’s length and girth. Faces blushing as they clenched and rubbed their thighs together while seeing that cock begin to stir and rise. Stiffening to a point that it seemed like he could hammer nails into wood, nevermind what it would do to their mouths and their pussies. That’s when 18 knew she had them hook, line and sinker.
The floor of the chestnut family’s living room was soon littered with the scattered clothing of the 3 women and one very lucky little man, as 18 hugged her husband from behind, grinning as she kissed along his neck and shoulders. His moans music to her ears as she locked Icey blue eyes on Dash and AJ, naked the day they were born as they knelt on the ground, eyes glowing with lust. Competing for dominance as they assaulted her short king’s cock with licks and kisses. At times even making out with the tip between them as their tongues soaked his length and girth with saliva, not even leaving his balls untouched. But oh their attempts to outdo one another at seeing how much of so his shaft they could take was delicious, it was no surprise this being their first time with him they couldn’t deepthroat right off the bat. But seeing them try was such a turn on, especially their shock and surprise whenever he’d buck his hips out of reflex. At some point it got into the pair’s heads thst their competition became blurred between trying to see who could outlast the other to whether or not they could make her man blow his load just from oral. 18 would usually charge most other women quite the fee when it came to her Krillin but what was about to happen to these two was just as sweet as money. And how sweet it is!!
Indeed Aj and Dash struggled as they were determined outdo one another in performing fellation for this prime price if fuckmeat the cyborg deadly beauty had so generously provided to be their judge. Assaulting it with licks and kisses as they sought to suck and blow on it. Often kissing and making out with each other by chance, which only added to the opinions of some that the two had some deep primal lust for each other and seeing one another be lewd like this. Their thoughts on pause as Krillin reached out with his hands to smack and massage their asses, their bubble butts jiggling before they found their slits being probed, thighs becoming soaked with their arousal as the shirt king showed he wasn’t just very well hung but also quite good with his hands. Feeling their pulses race as pleasure flowed their veins,spines tingling with pleasure as their brains tapped into those deep seated dormant primal portions. Feeling less like horny women and more like sexual bitches in heat courting this virile alpha male into mating with them to breed them with delicious, potent seed.
Tumblr media
AJ wasn’t sure when or how they had suddenly changed up positions but she wasn’t complaining that was for sure. As Krillin laid in the smooth wooden floor of the living room as she,fittingly enough,rode him cowgirl style. Her dark sun kissed tanned amazonian body glistening with sweat that smelt quite like sweet apple juice as she plunged her herself on his cock. Hearts flowing in her eyes,tits bouncing and bubble butt jiggling as Dash sat across from her,the dark skinned skittles coloured haired tomboy rode his face, feeling his tongue penetrate her as he ate her out. 18 looking in with little to no shame as she played width herself squeezing a tit in one hand as the other squeeze and juggled a tit. Biting her lip sensually as she saw the farm girl and tomboy push their lips together, making out like the horny lesbisexuals they were as her man brought them to greater heights of pleasure to help them settle their debate. Changing uo positions or tandems of one on two or one on kne whenever he would cum as they couldn’t keep count or track of their orgasms due to his prowesss.
such was the case as Dash found herself taking it doggy style from the Warrior Monk,the shirt king jackhammering and pistoning into her snatch as she herself was eating out Aj,taking her cider flavoured nectar mixed with the overflowing excess jizz from his earlier load deposit. The farm girl’s mane of blonde hair flowing as she grasped Dash’s hair,keeping her pressed against her pussy as she leaned in to kiss and make out with Krillin. If one were to look closely,they’d see glowing link hearts of the eyes of the pair. Indicating his overwhelming skill was enslaving them to him, a fact 18 was more than familiar with as her ego felt practically orgasmic. Nothing was more delicious than seeing sexy bitches become addicted to her man. Licking her lips as she saw Dash shudder and moan, Krillin groaning as he came inside, moaning into Aj’s liplock as the single came to once again change it up.
Tumblr media
Naturallt what followed was the veritable montage of pornographic delight as the trio would shift between one on one to two on one in sequence to any and every instance of the compact stud blowing his load. His virlity snd prowess proven by the fact his cock had yet to go limp or soft in the slightest since the first time he came. 18 of course adding herself to the mix to slice thing up or have a little lesbian intimacy with whoever wasn’t occupied with her shirt king for one on one action. Such as right now as she made out with Dash,the skittle haired tomboy and her dancing and massaging their tongues together nn some sloppy tonsil hockey. Jiggling and massaging her t perky titties in her hands as Dash fingered herself,feeling her oussy gush with a flow of her nectar and excess of krillin’s seed. All the while the short king had AJ in a mating press, the Amazon an farm girl howling with ecstasy as he jackhammered her oussy with the primal virility snd ferocity of a caveman as they enacted the ancient dance of man and woman,driven to make this muscular work of art of a woman pregnant. Lips,locked together as he had her powerful legs pushed back and his Balls smacked her netherlips’ outer rim, making her juices splash. Stomach bulging from his length and girth as her womb desired to have another generous helping of his white hot cream.
Cream which 18 helped herself to a she and Aj laid side by side,performing a 69 on one another as the lapped up a mixed snatch cocktail of pussy juice and the compact stud’s seed. While dash was pushed and pressed up against a wall, arms and legs draped around the vertically challenged sex machine’s Herculean body as he pumped and thrust into her with the same drive and desire to mate and breed. Her face an expression of raw ahegao, drooling and grinning lewdly as she and AJ practically radiated an aura of pink glowing hearts. By this point the duo had forgotten why they had been arguing or what they were debating and competing about. All thst mattered here and then, right now was having this sex god in the bidy of a compact macho man cutie knock them up and ruin them for other men. But 18 knew for certain the real winner was herself and of course man. Ankther lair of fine ass bitches sowed with wild oats as more chestnut buns found their ways into some very warm, wecolinf ovens.
Tumblr media
18 of course would need to remember to thank videl for babysitting maron for the day. Giving them all the time she needed to set uo and arranger having her latest hobby targets picked out. When opportunity came knocking for a chance to have her indulge in her persomal kink,she always seized it by the balls. As she laid atop her husband with Aj and Dash spinning either side of him,she had a feeling their little girl would be happy to know she’d have another brother or sister on the way. If this session didn’t yield results with these two being knocked up? Well just another excuse to have them come over, right?

Justification for the Crusades
Justification for the Crusades
“Exo 6:2  And God spoke unto Moses, and said unto him, I am Jehovah: 
Exo 6:3  and I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as God Almighty; but by my name Jehovah I was not known to them. 
Exo 6:4  And I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their sojourning’s, wherein they sojourned.”
I believe I needed to start here. God, Yahweh reveals himself to Moses in a different manner than Abraham, Issac, and Jacob. He reminds Moses of the covenant he made with them, and he reveals for the first time His Lordship and the Authority of His name. Christians now know the power in the name of Jesus. God is setting the stage to deliver His people out of slavery, and into this “Promised Land.”
Soon after God delivered them out of slavery Amalek attacked them in the wilderness. Exodus 17:8-16 gives us the account of this pivotal event because that ends with the LORD swearing to have War with Amalek from generation to generation.
If we back up to Exodus 15 we read about “The Song of Moses” where Israel sings the words “The Lord (Yahweh) is a man of War: the Lord (Yahweh) is his name” The Old Testament, from this point forward is full of great battles, from Jericho to Gideon's campaign, to The siege of Jebus, which essentially was David leading the Israelites to take Jerusalem. We know, without a doubt that Israel is called to war by God, the question then is, are Christians under the new covenant called to War?
When people say that Christians are just as violent as Islam, and then use the Crusades as the main example, they make a great point. I am sure the Crusaders were ruthless and savage, nothing even resembling our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, but anyone who has been in war will tell you “War is Hell”
So where does the Christian Justification come in? The Kingdom of Heaven is not exclusive to Jerusalem. “We know we do not wrestle against flesh and blood but principalities and dark forces” (Eph 6:12) We know that defending our families and loved ones with our lives is justified, but should Christians be “Militarized” if so, for what? This is the real question. Islam organized a military after centuries of battling the Roman Empire, eventually becoming the Eastern Holy Roman Empire.
Rome never conquered the peninsula of Arabia. They seized enough land in modern Kuwait to establish trade routes, but the regions hosting Mecca and modern-day Riyadh were never conquered.
When Muhammed began his teachings in 613 A.D. it was not in a region conquered by the Roman Empire. It was 300 years after Constantine made Christianity the official religion of the Roman Empire. Though Rome had footholds, it had never truly conquered the lands and its people.
The Arabian Peninsula was also home to the descendants of the tribes and nations fighting against Israel for well over millennia. Jericho was conquered in 1400 B.C. which would indicate two full MILLENIA'S before Muhammed. The roots of animosity and justification had to run so deep.
I have not studied the Quran so I do not know Muhammed's justification for Islam to lay siege to Jerusalem (636-637), nor do I know what the catalyst for their conquest of North Africa and eventually into Europe was. One thing was made clear...Islam had declared war on not just the descendants of Moses, and not just the Byzantine Empire, but on all of Christianity.
Once Christianity brought the Crusades the pride in the hearts of man had justified their means. Nobody was innocent anymore, nobody was right.
Even though I acknowledge any Christian excuse for War as hypocritical, I do believe that war is inevitable in the preparation of the Bride. Christians have been tasked with spreading the good news, the Apostles died as Martyrs for this Good news, the early church was persecuted for this good news and Christianity thrived.
Is this what it means? For us to all be Martyrs? To not be lovers of violence? That if we live by the sword, we will die by the sword? Are followers of Christ destined to be slaughtered as the Lamb himself? Is this the depths of laying down one's life? Did Christ die that we might die, or that we may have Life? Is Life worth fighting for?
Christ does not want His Men to be weak, nor allow crimes perpetrated upon their families! To allow our mothers and daughters to be conquered and raped? Enslaved? Jesus would never stand by and allow this.
Since I do believe that violence is to be met with violence, to defend against violence perpetrated upon my family, I believe one must Establish boundaries and borders. Borders that infer "This is where I draw the line" “This is mine, and I will defend this to my last breath to protect it.”
If you do not, dark forces will try to stamp you out. Hitler tried very very hard to exterminate all that was Jewish. The world will always create an enemy of God's people. Socialism, Communism, Nazism, Islam, Satanism, Witchcraft. The enemy has even turned Christianity against Christianity. From the great schism to the protestant reformation. Protestant Americans in southern U.S. states killed Jewish students from the northern states because they hated them. Northern and Southern Ireland had a Civil War with Protestants backing the Queen's rule in the North and Catholics fighting for independence in the South.
As I establish My boundaries in life, perhaps I seek out others to collectively protect our beliefs and families. To keep them safe from wolves, and roaring lions that look around seeking to devour. Perhaps this fellowship of creating borders, and boundaries causes us to form a community, or perhaps a tribe. Perhaps we reach out to other tribes to collectively further our boundaries because of strength in numbers, perhaps we create a nation or Kingdom. If the American media has taught us anything in the last four years, it's that not having borders will allow chaos and enemies inside your homes.
Now, applying this reasoning to our Christian morality, we will eventually come full circle to "Where" exactly we believe we should establish our boundaries. Is Christianity exclusive to Europe and The U.S.A.? Is Catholicism exclusive only to Italy? Is the Orthodox church exclusive only to Russia? Are all the different denominations simply trying to establish their foothold in regions? If so, then so is Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism.
Do I believe in Israel or Christianity maintaining the boundary and authority over Jerusalem?
Yes...
I unapologetically confirm that I stand with Israel, especially since I was raised by a long line of American veterans to never forget the past. I was shown the footage of Auschwitz, and Dachau. I remember the black-and-white footage of Jews standing in lines being marched into showers, and ovens. I will never stand before my God and say I did nothing to prevent that from happening...again.
“God hates a Coward.” "Rak Chazak Amats"
Israel's God is my Lord and savior's Father, but I believe in the Trinity, so their God is my God even if they look down on us for believing that Jesus is the Christ. Even if they are not saved due to their denial of Jesus, I will support them.
I believe the Crusades are justified... because I believe Israel should always have a home.
 Mat 10:34  “Think not that I have come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword”. 
Ecclesiastes 3:8  “A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.”
Until Christ comes again, I believe we are stuck in this age of Warfare. The only way to world peace is in Christ.

LUCEMOND
hotd × harry potter au
Tumblr media
Lucerys Strong liked his life, thank you very much.
The second born son with nearly no heavy duty responsibilities placed upon him. It was a simple, adaptable living. Nothing overly splendid but he found himself in no position to complain ( just yet). He had learned to take things less seriously than his older brother , Jacerys , whilst taking nothing for granted along with it.
That doesnt mean however that his life was perfect. No, no. The life he was born into was rather fucked from the start. The core of its blams could be placed upon the family he was made into. His mother's side, truthfully.
Power hungry pure-bloods that had a taking for insanity and greed. Targaryen. The name alone was a caution tale for all knowing or at least somewhat aware. With their fiery tempers and unwavering need for control , it all had been a passed down trait along with the ivory-white blonde hair and lilac eyes, like any other natural chromosome gene. Neither of which Luke or his brother Jace possessed physically. The rest however…
Have it be noted that Lucerys resembled his now-deceased birth farther, Harwin Strong, on an exterior forefront mainly . With large brown doe eyes that looked more bambi-like than threatening, and a mop of unruly curls that lay ontop of head with a mind of its own.
He was soft, for a Strong.
Cute where he was meant to be seen as manly. The kind that causes girls to friend-zone you in two sentences flat. The kind that boys instantly take you as No Real Threat to any given topic. But if having your cheeks pinched by your mother too frequently is the hardest thing going on in your existence then well … you really can't complain.
You can complain however if it's those big brown eyes that get you into more trouble than good. These adorable things? You'd think it'd do the opposite. But never anything was as simple as that. Or maybe Luke wasn't lucky? If he could bat his eyelashes in the way he saw pretty-girls do, or adorable little puppy dogs, then he would've. Merlin knows he's tried.
His eyes were wanted. Well, one of them? Technically. For a long over-paid debt by the very man making eye contact with him right now.
" Im gonna die," Luke chokes out under his breath. Turning his head away from the gaze currently being inflicted on him from a few tables down.
Flipping a brown strand of hair behind her shoulder as she reads. "Calm down. Its going to be easy." Maris Baratheon hums as she flips a page. " Just a recap of the hexes we learned last year. Maybe that Boggart summary -"
An exasperated sigh leaves the fifth-years mouth. "Not in DADA class!" He presses his elbows to the table and lets his forehead fall onto his palms.
She nearly looks up from her new assigned work book. "Why not? After the smoke-screen charm 'mishap' from last year Id be pretty concerned about Professor Daemon wanting to kill me," A side-ways glare causes her to stir finally. Wide eyed. "Is there another welcome back pop quiz I should be preparing for? Honestly, I swear if its herbology Im ringing you by your ear —"
"You know for the smartest sister out of your siblings you sometimes really are daft!" He sassily remarks looking towards her eyes finally. She stares back, slightly offended, but letting him continue for once before she rambles too much. "You remember that man I told you about? The one that I maimed?"
A ghost of a smile plays on her lips. "The one you told us about in third year? C'mon you're still going on with that lie?" The idea of Lucerys maiming anyone seemed humorous. Unachievable, even. He hadnt even been the sporty brother. Frankly, he'd been known for fainting at a mandrakes scream on more than one occasion.
He never did listen to those warnings of putting on the ear muffs correctly. Luke didn't listen in general.
"Its true!" He gasps sitting up finally and nearly swatting her arm. "Don't believe me? Look towards the Durmstrang table. They're sitting at the end of Slytherins."
Last night they had arrived during dinner. The lot of them, less then twenty but more then ten. Those Beauxbatons students too but they hadnt been the cause of his headaches. His paranoia. The acute awareness of the ticking time bomb above his head.
Maris' eyes scan for a moment before an shocked intake of breath. Maybe she caught on quick or maybe, just maybe , it hadnt been all that hard to find the person sending a death glare across the dining hall. A known presence to those seeking. A bulking shadow.
Aemond "One-Eye" Targaeryn. Brooding as always.
"You did that to him?!" She says in mainly shock alone.
"Im guessing he's still staring?" Luke didnt dare to seek a second peak. Especially when he can feel a small concentrated hole starting to burn its way into the side of his skull.
"I dont even think he's blinking, babes, Imma be honest." Maris is unable to look away apparently. Its like a car accident. A burning, dare she say hot, tragedy to tear your eyes away from. "You maimed a Targareyn? The moody one? The evil one?"
"He's not necessarily evil?" Luke picks up his fork. Trying to find something to do with his hands to seem busy. To try and make the conversation not seem so obvious. "He's just Machiavellian and a Byronic-wannabe." Although Luke knew death could be a very plausible possibility with the kind of psychopath he was dealing with, he had grown up not feeling overly-threatened by it.
He found it humorous ... sort of. He shouldn't have, he knew that. Some part of him knew he should be scared, truly. But adapting possible trauma into humor was the only way Luke learned to cope towards things. It was all just a funny misunderstanding. Yes .
One where he possibly ends up six feet under or bleeding on the floor and screaming. He spiraled last night after seeing Aemond enter the Great Hall. A quick study of what to do if your eye is gouged suddenly from your head. The books in the library said to close the other and try not to move it because eyes mimic each other. If you apply pressure —
" Are you even listening to me?" Maris whisper-scolded with an elbow to the ribs. "You've zoned out again."
A stab to the peas on the plate and he watches them scatter. The butter he smeared previously has gone cold and is making the vegetable stick to the plate as they roll. "Im just thinking of what a joyous last meal this is. Maybe we can sneak to Honeydukes later and get some of those lemon cakes?"
" Stop joking-"
A pointed look. "I never jest about cake,"
A smack over the back of the head causes him to wince. "You're not dying!" She rubs the back of his head in an apology for how hard she smacks. "He's not gonna kill you,"
He dares a sneak finally. Aemond's eye stares him down with an emotionless expression. The way his large hand wraps around his knife however? The white knuckled grip of death that Luke can practically already imagine suffocating him into a inky, black, nothingness …
" He's gonna kill me and he's gonna like it," Enough is enough and Luke finally looks away. Trying not to imagine that twisted cutlery metal as his spine bending. "He's so much larger then he was years ago,"
Its an odd observation but true. Lucerys remembers even less about Bulgaria than his family seems to believe. A bit more than his younger brother, Joffery , who had been but a babe at the time. He hadnt even started school yet. He had been shorter than he was now of course and the towers of snow seemed so tall. The harsh, cold rain that still sends chills down his spine at the thought.
The funeral. The yelling under fyre-light. He just wanted the screaming to stop. The way the curse dripped so easily from Aemonds lips. Like venom, like poison. Wandless and young, untaught cruel magic.
Luke wasnt good at magic now hardly and he hadnt been then. The slice of metal through air then blood. So much blood. The screams only got worse, but it wasn't Jace who had been crying them anymore.
It had been nearly a decade ago when they fled. Daemon Targareyn, his mothers uncle, provided them with lodging near the school he taught Defense Against the Dark Arts at.
The last time he saw him, them , any of them. It had been that night after Alicent had gone after young Lucerys in return. Shortly after Harwins death. Enough had been enough. A young Rhaenyra fled with her children to England. Jace had gotten his letter to Hogwarts some time after. They made it their new home.
Luke adapted quickly. As quickly as he could. The less toxic life style away from Pure-blood greed was comforting. The constant scolds for being turned half-blooded nearly didnt matter here. Sure, some of the Slytherin families held prejudice. No one who mattered to him. It was shrugged and waved off other wise.
It was a modern age anyway. Most wizards and witches were half-bloods in this new age of 1976. Muggles , non magic folks , had a lots of interesting things to bring to the table.
Music, for starters. Music he wouldnt have heard otherwise. Art and poetry and movies and groovy new clothes. All these things he focused himself off because he wasnt perhaps best at the rest of it all. Magic, swords, dragons …
"Ya know what?" Luke starts. The cold plate of peas and the distant thought of drowning panicked sorrow in Lemony-sweets going on pause. "Im not gonna die."
"Thats spirit!"
"By Aemond or Mister Daemon-"
… " Now, thats a bit bold I'm not gonna lie." Maris whispers in a slightly judgy tone.
"I just," He squares his shoulders and sits straighter. "I just need to kpen up his perspective,"
"You need to open up his what now?"
He ignores and continues. "Show him? That he's wrong and that he can't have my eye or my life and neiTHER will be his because of his sick twisted — "
Maris pupils widen and theres suddenly a shadow looming from somewhere over him.
"My sick twisted what now?" A cool, liquid metal voice spills its way into Lucerys ears. Maybe reality hits a bit finally as goosebumps spread and a bit of fear kicks in.
A wince. A breath.
Lucerys tilts his head up slowly. Meeting the unwavering glare of Aemond Targaryen as he stands some where behind him. Above him. Peering down at Luke like he's the smallest thing he's ever gazed upon. Something to step on and squish where he stands. Something that belongs under his heel.
"Oh, yeah. Im dead."

Hi! :D Not sure if you're happy to take on unscripted asks re. lore and headcanons, but since I absolutely adore the type of political backdrop to FFXVI and you mentioned the Rosarian government - would you mind expanding on how you envisage the High Houses to work in terms of representation / the council and what else you have established for Rosaria while an independent nation?
Unfortunately it does not appear to be explored in the same level of detail as the main bodies of other nations (probably because it all went to hell very early on) but I'd love to hear your thoughts and whether it mirrors any irl source of inspiration (such as, idek, Luxembourg which is also a grand-duchy)?
Tumblr media
HELLO FRIEND!!! I AM ABSOLUTELY HAPPY TO TAKE THESE SORTS OF ASKS! aaaaaaaaaaaa I can try to answer this without droning on nonsensically for like five hours, and I apologize so, so, so profusely if I fail spectacularly at that! (And also apologize profusely if my thoughts don't actually make much sense.)
Yeah, I was hoping we'd get more information about Rosaria and how it works politically before things went to shit, but alas... we are not that lucky. I'll admit wholeheartedly that I can't speak on it mirroring any RL places, past or present -- I'd have to read up on them in more detail first, which would be fun to do, but as you and I have found out in the past, the game seems to take creative liberties with what terms, statuses, etc. pertaining to a duchy mean, rather than having it be a 1:1 comparison with a real-world duchy. I want to believe it's creative liberties... rather than them doing a half-assed job of researching, themselves.
Okay. Okay. I'm going to curb my overwhelming puppydog excitement over this Ask and actually write now, I swear.
I am also so sorry for reiterating information that's already known, but. Before Rosaria became a duchy, it was a series of smaller, independent nations, all of which were of course ruled by different noble families. These nations united together to form the Grand Duchy of Rosaria as we know it. The rulers of the independent nations became what are known as the Seven High Houses, with House Rosfield as the central one.
A Rosfield is always the one who sits on the throne, and the Phoenix is always born into the Rosfield line. But while House Rosfield always holds the seat of power, the other High Houses do hold heavy political influence within the duchy.
The way I headcanon it is that the High Houses are each represented in the royal council by the head of the main branch of each house's ruling family, much the same way that the head of the main branch of the Rosfield line serves as the ruling family of House Rosfield. What determines who is the head of these main families? Birth order, for the most part. Gender isn't necessarily important; this is, I admit, largely inspired both by the fact that it was Elwin's mother who was on the throne before Elwin, as well as my unending dislike for the idea that women have no power. So taking what the Ultimania book revealed about Elwin and Anabella's familial ties, I go with the idea that the former Archduchess was the head of the main branch family of the Rosfield line, while her husband, the former Archduke, was married into the main branch from a lesser branch because he was the current Dominant of Phoenix. I like to believe that the other High Houses operate similarly, with the firstborn child of the main branch family serving as the head of that particular High House.
Oh God I hope this is making sense so far. alkgjds
I also like to take a lot of inspiration from the fact that Rosaria's title is, "The Bastion of Tradition," as well as the information we're given in the Ultimania. (For as many parts of the Ultimania, mostly pertaining to ages, that make me want to chuck the book out a window.) Rosaria is driven largely by tradition, and its government and politics aren't any different. No matter how much time passes, I headcanon that the duchy honors its roots by maintaining this balance of power between the Seven High Houses. House Rosfield may be the ruling family, but as said previously, every High House has a seat on the council, and every High House has a say in political matters. The couple on the throne can't act or make decisions without a majority agreement from the council, and the council likewise can't make a decision or act without approval of those currently on the throne.
This, for the Rosfields, is a double-edged sword. There are members of the other High Houses who are less than fond of House Rosfield due to their position, and as a result use their own power to undermine their authority. This is something that Elwin's mother in particular had warned him about, but given Elwin's ambitions of breaking apart the status quo and stepping away from heavy reliance upon tradition and societal standards/norms, it's exponentially more apparent during his time as Archduke -- because as anyone can guess, he isn't a very popular ruler when it comes to the nobility. Whereas the other Rosfields up 'til that point had been content with preserving Rosaria's ways of life because it's "just how things are and have always been," Elwin goes against the grain, and in doing so breaks out of the mold and disregards the precedent set before him by the rulers who reigned before him.
Through the Ultimania, we find out that the Dominant of Phoenix isn't actually supposed to take the throne -- they aren't even supposed to have a say in political matters whatsoever. But exceptions are pretty commonly made, and I'll be damned if I'm not going to take this information and run with it headcanon/speculation-wise regarding Clive and Joshua's dynamic of how their relationship was in relation to Rosaria's governing body, how it was intended to have been by their parents, as well as how that relationship changed once certain key events were revealed(like Joshua awakening as the next Dominant instead of Clive). For example, my headcanon is that it was indeed Clive who had been intended to take the throne -- not because he was the firstborn child, but because Anabella and Elwin had decided on it because it was assumed he was the next Dominant, and the favor that the nobility expressed towards little Clive became support for this decision. But when Joshua awakened as the next Dominant instead, that favor and support was not only revoked from Clive, but was replaced with scorn and nasty rumors, ones that were not only about Clive and why he was rejected, but also about his parents as well. I'll get into the significance of that in a moment, though. Clive was replaced as the High Houses's golden child by Joshua. They threw all of their support and favor behind Joshua, and it was ultimately their influence that caused Anabella and Elwin to make Joshua heir to the throne instead, and Elwin to remove Clive from the line of succession entirely to try and spare him from the nobility's bullshittery.
Now, the big takeaway from that is the fact that Elwin, Anabella, Clive, Joshua, and even Jill are all caught up in this political game, whether they like it or not. It's a game that the parents to some extent try to protect the kids from, as seen in Elwin's decision regarding Clive -- but it's just not possible given the circumstances and positions of their births.
My headcanons have always been that a huge dividing factor between Elwin and Anabella was the subject of Clive, yes, but it was by design of the other High Houses, rather than brought upon initially by their emotions. The other High Houses knew exactly what they were doing by starting up with the rumors and jeers about Clive's supposed bastard lineage; they had always been looking for opportunities and ways, no matter how tiny, to split Elwin and Anabella apart -- just as they did with my Elwin's parents, although it didn't work with his parents. But Anabella and Elwin were much younger, much less experienced/prepared for the personal aspect of the political schemes, had little to no support or guidance from older parties, and were faced straight out of the gate with a slew of political matters pertaining to war and conflict while also having to navigate their new marriage and begin working towards bearing the next Dominant of the Phoenix as quickly as possible because in short, Rosaria was not in a good position in Storm. The duchy was vulnerable, without a Dominant to protect them; and because they didn't have a Dominant, House Rosfield couldn't seek guidance in matters of war from their ancestors.
Anabella and Elwin were, again, pretty much on their own.
The other councilmembers of the High Houses saw all of this and used it to their advantage. They chipped away little by little at the stability of the Archduke and Duchess's relationship, weaponized their differences in opinions against them, and when Joshua was revealed to be the next Dominant instead of Clive, they struck the big nail into the coffin by slandering the royal couple, disgracing Clive and Anabella, and creating that massive rift between the parents over Clive's future and their differing feelings towards the child. The shame inflicted by them upon Anabella was manipulated into anger and resentment, while Elwin's love for Clive was forced into being in direct opposition to his love for his wife, and both of these matters were only worsened by the fact that Joshua was beloved by the nobility and poised by them to take the throne -- despite how sickly and frail the child was. All of these things were aimed at pitting the couple against each-other, and it worked.
These things were also geared towards eventually pitting Joshua and Clive against each-other by means of sowing seeds of resentment and mistrust, but this one failed thanks to the strong bond shared between the two boys.
... I don't remember where I was going with any of this. I don't even think any of this answers your Ask, but I figure it's fun background information that might give some equally as fun context towards my Elwin! I guess the big takeaway from the latter half of this post is that I headcanon that there's A Lot of political unrest and power struggles between the High Houses, it's just kept carefully hidden from the public. If there's anything specific you'd like elaborated on, please feel free to let me know!

"Isn't it cool we get one last adventure together?" EDA THIS IS WHAT I'M SAYING, THIS SOUNDS LIKE GOODBYE

Mr Blight being just a fan of his jetpack until he realises what it means, I love him, I adore him so fucking much
Question, what coven is Amity's Mum from, I thought it was abomination too but the ghost thing and the talking into gem thing made me realise she probably isn't, and I have forgot what she is in
"You're always welcome in our home" AWWW SUPPORTIVE DAD!!! I am a sucker for supportive parents
WOAH NO! Hunter, its lovely to see you, as always BUT WHAT HAPPENED!?
WAIT LUZ DIDN'T GET TO HEAR SUPPORTIVE DAD COMMENT! NOOOOOO
God damn it Luz, always 1 step ahead, poor Hunter is so lost
AND THAT CONCLUDES, Episode 20 reaction. Finished. I am pleasantly surprised at this episode, it had so much packed into it and I even missed things out as it would have been too long
I have so many questions and cannot wait to have (most of them hopefully?) answered next episode
