Imagine merman!Dante and/or merman!Leon saving you from nearly drowning.
One minute, you're about to accept a watery fate...
The next, you're lying on the beach with two hot guys looking you over.
You're thankful they saved you, but something feels... Off.

On this, the first day of M.ermay, I would like to give an important announcement:
Tumblr media
Damien and Dante are mer.
Noah is a captain of a ship. Barnum is his first mate pup. While not a pirate, his crew are known for getting into mishaps, but they get through it at the end of the day.
That is all.

De gevolgen van een avontuurtje in Saint-Paul de Vence
Wat er in een interview met mij al niet naar voren komt! Van Homerus tot Dante. Van Nice tot Saint-Paul-de-Vence. Van inspiratie tot ondernemen. Van warme kleuren tot mystiek. Zie de nieuwe blogaflevering in TOOS&ART. #art #kunst #expo #coted'azur,
Dit keer een makkie. Want waarom zelf iets schrijven als anderen dat al voor me hebben gedaan? Er verschenen onlangs niet voor niks twee interviews met mij in de twee magazines van de twee Nederlandse clubs die de Côte d’Azur rijk is. De Nederlandse Club Côte d’Azur en de Association Néerlandaise du Midi. Dus waarom die alletwee niet gewoon overgenomen? Voor de teksten kan ik ten slotte volledig…

various advice tidbits on writing limbus company fic
from my own personal notes 👍 i will likely add on more to this later. this is all based on the official english translation.
Vergilius seems to refer to everyone by their full name. He calls Faust "Ms. Faust" in the prologue and "Miss Faust" in the Dante's Notes mini episodes. He calls Dante just "Dante" most of the time, but sometimes uses "Manager Dante" to make a point. I don't speak Korean so please correct me if this is wrong, but I think Faust is the only one he uses an honorific for.
Charon calls Vergilius "Verg" and the bus "Mephi". It stands to reason that she would similarly shorten others' names if she were addressing them directly.
Regarding Don: "Don Quixote" is her full name. "Don" is a title in Spanish, but seems to be part of her name here. She is never referred to as "Don" or "Quixote", only "Don Quixote". Hong Lu and Yi Sang are similar in that both parts are the full name.
Meursault is pronounced "mer-SO". There's two u's in his name, just like in the word vacuum.
Heathcliff most likely does not have a surname. In Wuthering Heights, he is raised alongside the Earnshaw children but is notably not considered an Earnshaw. He has one name, like Cher and Michelangelo. This can be seen in Limbus in his icon, which reads CE ❤️ HC (Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff).
Rodya's name in her source material is Rodion Raskolnikov. Since she is female in Limbus, her surname becomes Raskolnikova.
Gregor is Jewish; this shouldn't need to be said but it does bear repeating. Please do not have him celebrating Christian holidays. He would not fucking say that.
Sinclair canonically said the word "legit" to Kromer which is something I think of often when trying to figure out if a word seems too informal for him to say. He's well-educated and polite most of the time, but he did still call her a bitch too. Sinclair can say rude words.
Ryoushuu's SANGRIA usually spell out a word. She sometimes uses two- or three-letter ones that don't spell anything on their own (like RB, EC, CIH), but four or more letters will spell a word (SYNC, TRANCHES, NOUN, etc). She will not say HMFTDIHTST or anything of that nature. Rule of thumb: if it's more than three letters, it spells something. (The one exception I have found is her W Corp ID, which has a skill called DDEDR.)
Reading the character's source material can give you incredible insight into why they act the way they do, even if we've already been through their Canto. I strongly recommend looking into the source works as part of a well-rounded analysis.

🥀♡•♡"Wherefore art thou Dante?"♡•♡🥀
Dante Sparda x Female Reader. Some angst. Hurt/Comfort. There's fluff don't worry. Forbidden Love. Romeo & Juliet inspired. Disapproving parents. Love is powerful. Secret relationship. Eloping. Happy ending.
🥀♡🥀♡🥀♡🥀♡🥀♡🥀♡🥀♡🥀♡🥀♡🥀♡🥀♡🥀♡
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Your family have always had a disdain of Sparda and his kin, despite Sparda being a kindhearted and caring demon with a beautiful and sweet human wife and two handsome sons who were twins, but still they hated them. And they would hate you if your family found out about your secret relationship with Dante, younger twin brother of Vergil, son of Sparda.
For years, your family hated demons and devils. They hated what they done to humans and hated the wars raged on them by Mundus. And in particular, they hated Sparda. They despised him despite Sparda betraying Mundus and protecting the humans from harm. They hated him even when he choose to live amongst the humans and married a beautiful woman, Eva. They hated him, even when Eva gave birth to twin sons, Vergil and Dante. They could never let go of their hatred towards demons and Devils, even if there were good Devils in the world.
And you knew, if they found out what you were up to when you snuck out at night, they'd definitely hate you. Possibly even disown you. Because you were in love with Dante, son of Sparda and younger twin brother of Vergil.
You two met at a masquerade ball, hosted by your parents. They had forbade Dante and Vergil from attending, but that didn't stop Dante from planning on crashing it for fun. Vergil warned him not to do it, but Dante being Dante he went along and snuck into the ball with his own masquerade disguise.
His plan was to sneak in and cause a ruckus, maybe switch out the classical music for some heavy metal songs and put them on full blast throughout the speakers. He had a whole plan laid out to wreck this boring party, until he saw you. And you saw him.
You were dressed in a beautiful, white and gold dress adorned with a gorgeous matching masquerade mask. Your hair done up and adorned with a gold laurel leaf crown. You were stunning, an angel sent from above to Dante and his plans of wrecking the party was all forgotten.
You couldn't help but notice Dante, striking white hair, beautiful blue eyes and dressed in striking red with a matching masquerade devil mask. You two stared at each other, both lost in each other's eyes.
Without thinking, Dante spoke.
"You wanna blow this place?" Asked Dante.
"Only if you share a dance with me first" You Replied.
"With a beautiful angel like you? Hell, how could I say no?" Remarked Dante winking. You giggled and soon you two took to a slow dance on the floor, your parents wondering who was this mysterious masked man dancing with you.
"Who is he? That man in the red masquerade get up?" Asked Mother. Father narrowed his eyes.
"I don't know. He looks familiar but I can't say I've seen him. Perhaps it's the hair" Remarked Father. When the dance ended, you two slipped away from prying eyes and snuck outside together, giggling and laughing all the way.
You spent that wonderful night with Dante under the stars, getting to know one another and sharing a few laughs. However, when the party ended and your family went looking for you, Dante fled into the night, leaving you with a promise to return again.
And the next night, he visited. You snuck out and even went into the city with him, took you to a diner where you and him shared a strawberry milkshake and some burger and fries. You wished this night wouldn't end and wanted to stay longer with the charming half-Devil, but sadly you knew your family would come looking and so with a reluctant sigh, Dante returned you home.
"Promise me, we'll still hang out together? Promise me you'll return" You Pleaded as you snuck back up to your bedroom balcony.
"I promise!" Whispered Dante and with a wink, he was gone into the night once more. You giggled and felt your heart flutter at just the mere thought of him as you lay in your bed that night, the sweet taste of strawberry milkshake still on your lips.
This continued for many nights and with each passing day, your love for each other grew. You hoped with time, maybe your parents might hear of Dante's good deeds and look upon him more favorably. But alas, that was not the case.
"Did you hear about that rogue Devil in red running amok? Causing nothing but damage to our city!" Spat Mother angrily.
"But he's just trying to keep the people safe from the demons and devils that try and hurt us!" You Argued. Mother laughed bitterly.
"You are much too young and naive to understand. He is the son of Sparda, a Hell spawn half-breed. He belongs in Hell with his family" Remarked Mother bitterly. Your heart clenched at such a harsh remark, knowing that only Dante and Vergil were the only ones left of Sparda's bloodline, Eva died during a demon attack and Sparda had vanished, presumably held captive or killed by Mundus. You knew Dante and Vergil still felt the pain of that tragedy.
"Mother, how can you say such cruel words? Don't you know those brothers still bear the scars of the tragedy that befell their mother?" You Asked, holding your hand over your chest.
"Don't feel sympathy for those Devils my child, they are nothing but monsters and god forbid should you associate with them. The very thought of you mingling with those vile creatures makes my blood run cold. You aren't in league with the Sparda twins are you?" Asked Mother, eyeing you suspiciously.
You shook your head.
"No Mother" You Replied.
"Good. The last thing I want is for my daughter to be tainted by such unholy creatures" Remarked Mother. You said nothing. It was clear that your parents still held deep hatred for Sparda and his sons.
You still continued to see Dante in secret, making sure to always keep a low profile, especially when in the city. He took you to Love Planet and though not the most romantic of places, he did make you laugh by swinging on the dance pole.
"You've got moves that's for sure!" You Laughed.
Dante chuckled along with you.
"Glad you enjoyed my little show for you" Remarked Dante sending a flirtatious wink that made you blush and giggle.
"Oh Dante" You Giggled as Dante sat beside you, wrapping an arm around you.
After a few drinks, you two shared your first kiss. It was sweet, passionate and very hot all at the same time. When the kiss broke, you were breathless.
"Wow!" You Giggled.
"I was thinking about doing that all day" Admitted Dante, a pink blush coming to his cheeks.
"Oh Dante, I love you but how are we to be together? My parents hate you and should they find out about us......God I shudder to think what they'd do to me.....to us" You Admitted sadly. Dante held you close, comforting.
"We'll find a way babe. We'll find a way. One day you and me will find a way to be together. No one will stop us" Promised Dante.
"You promise?" You Asked.
"I promise babe" Assured Dante.
And that night as you snuck back in, you still felt the lingering kiss on your lips.
One morning you awoke to the most dreadful news. You were to be married off to a wealthy man's son. You cried in your bedroom all day and night, dreading the awful future that surely was to come, until a pebble at your window caught your attention. You came out on to the balcony and saw Dante, smiling.
"Let me come in Y/N!" Whispered Dante. You wiped away your tears and allowed him to climb up and join you in your bedroom.
"You've been crying. What's wrong?" Asked Dante noting your tear streaked face.
"Oh Dante it's awful, I'm to be married off to some rich man's son and though I tried to protest, they wouldn't listen to me! I don't want to marry him! I wanna be with you! We don't have to marry if you don't want to but I just wanna spend my every waking morning and every sleeping night with you Dante! I love you, I don't want to lose you" You Sobbed.
Dante held you in his arms as you cried. It was then a plan had formed in his head. It was a huge risk but it's now or never.
"Then pack whatever essentials you need, whatever you consider valuable and let's leave together" Advised Dante.
"Tonight?" You Asked unsure.
"Tonight. We don't have much time. It's now or never Y/N. I don't wanna lose you either. I love you" Admitted Dante.
You smiled softly at your lover and he smiled back.
"So what do you say?" Asked Dante.
"Let us leave" You Answered.
That night, Dante helped you pack a bag and you two ran off into the night hand in hand together. No matter how hard they tried, your parents couldn't reach you or Dante. You both were left alone in peace.
And you two lived together, happily for years to come.

(WIP) Music Monday / The rules: Post a song that is relevant to your WIP or inspires it. I’m also including the lyrics.
Tumblr media
What's worse, being wanted but not loved Or loved but not wanted? What's worse, hearin' what you wanna hear Or hearin' what's honest? Our love's misaligned 'Cause you're on my mind every night I ignore the signs And I don't know why 'Cause, baby, I saw the end when we began You couldn't love the way I can I tried to bargain with the stars For more than half your heart But you have more pieces of me than the desert has sand And I have less pieces of you than I can hold in my hand
one could argue if this goes harder for Mer or Jacob, since she's so difficult to pin down
Tumblr media
We are looking up to the sky, searching for a reason why We are holding onto our hope, blinded by the smoke But we're coming in like a hurricane Heads down in the pouring rain We'll fight till doomsday When the world's in ashes Lost to all the havoc Raise our swords, and fight till doomsday When the earth is severed We will not surrender In this war, we'll fight till doomsday
Tumblr media
I wake in the night all alone in my head Lost all focus Left me breathless Blinded by the light Twin flames, two hearts Can burn out in any second And twin flames, two hearts Can implode, live in the embers Twin flames, two hearts on fire We're burning together We burn We're burning together
Tumblr media
I chase the high I beat you at your game There's no place to hide There only is one way I'll bleed you dry This is my domain
Tagging, @socially-awkward-skeleton @josephseedismyfather @quantum-lover @direwombat @corvosattano @strangefable @thesingularityseries @the-silver-chronicles @adelaidedrubman @wrathfulrook @clicheantagonist @nightbloodbix @jillvalentinesday @madparadoxum @onehornedbeast @g0dspeeed @shegetsburned @aceghosts @voidika @theelderhazelnut @unholymilf @trench-rot @josephslittledeputy @dumbassdep and anyone that would like to share some songs this week 🤍

        Each morning, before the sun rises over the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer         on the Côte d’Azur, cruise ships drop anchor so that motor launches from shore          can nurse alongside. All afternoon we studied les structures où nous sommes l’objet, structures          in which we are the object—le soleil me dérange, le Côte d’Azur nous manque—          while the pompiers angled their Bombardiers down to the sea, skimming its surface           like pelicans and rising, filled with water to drop on inland, inaccessible          wildfires. Once, a swimmer was found face down in a tree like the unfledged robin I saw          flung to the ground, rowing its pink shoulders as if in the middle          of the butterfly stroke, rising a moment above water. Oiseau is the shortest word          in French to use all five vowels: the soul and tie of every word, which Dante named          auieo. All through December, a ladybug circles high around the kitchen walls looking for          spring, the way we search for a word that will hold all vows and avowals: eunoia, Greek          for beautiful thinking, because the world’s a magic slate, sleight of hand—now          you see it, now you don’t—not exactly a slight, although in Elizabethan English, nothing          was pronounced noting. In the Bodleian Library at Oxford, letters of the alphabet hang          from the ceiling like the teats of the wolf that suckled Romulus          and Remus, but their alibi keeps changing, slate gray like the sea’s          massage: You were more in me than I was in me. . . You remained within while I          went outside. Hard to say whether it was Augustine          speaking to God or my mother talking to me. Gulls ink the sky         with view, while waves throw themselves on the mercy of the shore.

« Les peuples comme les Phéniciens, Tyr, Sidon, Carthage, sociétés de commerce exploitant la terre à leur profit et ne mesurant la grandeur de leurs entreprises qu'à l'utilité matérielle et actuelle du résultat; — je suis pour eux comme le Dante, je regarde et je passe. […] Mais ceux qui, peu soucieux du présent qu'ils sentaient leur échapper, ont par un sublime instinct d'immortalité, par une soif insatiable d'avenir, porté la pensée nationale au-delà du présent, et le sentiment humain au-dessus de l'aisance, de la richesse, de l'utilité matérielle; — ceux qui ont consumé des générations et des siècles à laisser sur leur route une trace belle et éternelle de leur passage; ces nations désintéressées et généreuses qui ont remué toutes les grandes et pesantes idées de l'esprit humain, pour en construire des sagesses, des législations, des théogonies, des arts, des systèmes; — celles qui ont remué les masses de marbre ou de granit pour en construire des obélisques ou des pyramides, défi sublime jeté par elles au temps, voix muette avec laquelle elles parleront à jamais aux âmes grandes et généreuses; — ces nations poètes comme les Égyptiens, les Juifs, les Indous, les Grecs, qui ont idéalisé la politique et fai prédominer dans leur vie de peuples le principe divin — l’âme, sur le principe humain, l'utile. Celles-là je les aime, je les vénère, je cherche et j'adore leurs traces, leurs souvenirs, leurs œuvres écrites, bâties ou sculptées ; je vis de leur vie, j'assiste en spectateur ému et partial au drame touchant ou héroïque de leur destinée et je traverse volontiers les mers pour aller rêver quelques jours sur leur poussière et pour aller dire à leur mémoire le memento de l'avenir; celles-là ont bien mérité des hommes, car elles ont élevé leurs pensées au-dessus de ce globe de fange, au-delà de ce jour fugitif. — Elles se sont senties faites pour une destinée plus haute et plus large, et ne pouvant se donner à elles-mêmes la vie immortelle que rêve tout cœur noble et grand, elles ont dit à leurs œuvres: Immortalisez-nous, subsistez pour nous, parlez de nous à ceux qui traverseront le Désert ou qui passeront sur les flots de la mer Ionienne, devant le cap Sygée ou devant le promontoire de Sunium où Platon chantait une sagesse qui sera encore la sagesse de l'avenir. »
