Me wanting ONE morally good character in Miquella to offset the moral of the grayness of the setting apparently means that clearly Elden Ring is my first fromsoft game and I can't handle moral grayness.
Incorrect. I played DS2, then DeS, then BB, then DS3, then DS1, and now ER.
I'm merely stating my opinion that Miquella being a Griffith analogue would be banal and boring. Mostly because if I wanted more Griffith, I'd go read Berserk, not play Elden Ring.
Sorry for the mini-rant, just got some snide stuff on my reblog and wanted to get some of it off my chest.
Also, can't I be both a FromSoft fan and at the same time be tired of the Berserk allegories in their games?

today I visited The Pirates’ House in Savannah. Local myth has it that Flint died here and his ghost still haunts the building. This makes sense if you know nothing about fictional pirates, doesn’t make sense if you know a little about fictional pirates, and makes total sense again if you are abnormally obsessed with fictional pirates

i’m begging you to say more about the romance of scorch and your self-insert… i want to know the gossip
There was a keen rivalry between my self-insert Pounce the cat (the brunette everygirl)
Tumblr media
and Mystic the unicorn, her blonde, popular-girl rival, played by my little sister
Tumblr media
for the affections of Scorchie, the hot dragon of minimal brain but stout heart.
Tumblr media
Look at him! Classic no thoughts head empty, but he’s tall and has shiny wings and curly hair* (*nubby fabric) and a cute smile. He could be fought over indefinitely because he had the memory span of a goldfish and the emotional backbone of a cloth beanbag, and so whoever was last hitting on him was who he was most into.
There were definitely elements of… racial or class conflict? I guess? because Pounce was very aware that Scorchie and Mystic were both magical creatures with iridescent details and she was merely a matte housecat. Mystic was Scorchie’s most natural partner, since at first we didn’t have Magic the dragon (the white dragon beanie) and then when we got her I vaguely remember that her neck was too weak and floppy to sustain the kind of head-tilt-based emoting we favored.
Despite her plain colors and non-magical nature, Pounce was determined to make Scorchie fall in love with her. This was either through force of personality (my real-life approach) or your standard children’s cartoon rom-com antics. I definitely remember she got a makeover to make her more shiny and thus more attractive to dragons. She could wear bracelets as necklaces and rings as bracelets or tiaras, and I almost certainly made her dresses out of scarves or tissues. She also lived in a chic two-story apartment (a portable foot-long bookshelf standing on one end).
Also I’m pretty sure she actually fought Mystic, but idk if this was like ‘I manipulate your tiny bean arm’ or ‘full body slap beanbag on beanbag action’. Imagine whichever is funnier to you.
I have asked my sister what she remembers of this so perhaps there will be a part two!

If you get this, answer w/ three random facts about yourself and send it to the last seven blogs in your notifs. anon or not, doesn’t matter, let’s get to know the person behind the blog!
Hi!!! Thanks for the ask!
I have a small, slow growing collection of tarot decks. I've been learning the meanings of the cards and how to do readings from a beginner's guide, and it's a fun hobby for me. My two favorite decks that I have so far are the Modern Witch Tarot Deck and the Goddess Tarot.
When I was younger, I used to bite my nails when I got anxious (which was and is quite often), but I finally got rid of the habit when I started getting manicures regularly. Now my nails are longer than I ever thought they could grow and they remind me that my anxiety doesn't control me.
I cannot write poetry for shit, but I adore the genre, and I'm lucky enough that on two different occasions very talented writers wrote poems that were inspired by me on some level. Both times, I nearly fainted when I heard them read aloud.

HAUNTED MANSION WORLDBUILDING PART 1: GHOST TYPES
( Aka just me talking about my personal headcanons and ideas of how ghosts work in the Haunted Mansion Universe)
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
When it comes to ghosts and spirits, it has been found that there are many different types. Out of these types, a ghost might only fall into one category,or, can fall into multiple.
××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××
Forced: Forced Ghosts refers to ghosts that have been forced to stay in the mortal world against their will. This is usually done by a more powerful ghost or spirit. Humans may also be the cause of it, but it is far more uncommon
Summoned: Summoned Ghosts refer to Ghosts who have been summoned by a mortal. These ghosts can still exist somewhere in the mortal world or just close enough to the veil between the real world and the region beyond in order to be summoned. If it is not a trapped spirit and has come from the region beyond, that is where it will eventually go back to.
Deathbound: deathbound ghosts refer to spirits who haunt and live in the place that they died.
Grim Grinning: Grim grinning ghosts refer to spirits who are able to travel to the region beyond, but chose not to. For whatever reason, they decided to stay in the mortal world for however long they desire to.
Unhappy Haunts: unhappy haunts refer to spirits who do not allow themselves to move on to the region beyond; usually being because of guilt or grief/ longing for something that refuses to allow them to pass on peacefully. These spirits are usually peaceful,not usually haunting mortals, and more often then not are victims of tragedy.
Possessed objects: Possed objects refer to spirits who have decided ( or have been forced) to become an object. They usually stay in an object most of the time like an armor stand, statue, or a crystal ball, and very rarely come out.
Hitchhikng: Hitchhikng ghosts refer to Ghosts that are able to attach themselves to a mortal and follow them home. These ghosts are usually seen as tricksters who take joy out of haunting mortals.
*Unidentified*: There have only been a few spirits that have been placed in this category. Trapped in the deepest darkest part of the region beyond, also known as purgatory and only being let out when the veil between the region beyond and the mortal world has become extremely thin. These ghosts are spirits of mortals who are known as the worst mankind has to offer. These spirits bring fear into the hearts of mortals and ghosts a like as well as being the most powerful type of spirit there is. DO NOT SUMMON AT ALL COST!!!

Tumblr media
It was a gingerly caress, a touch of winter found against her fingertips that offered a reprieve from the summer's heat. This light, cool brush of her skin, sent his heart to brace against its ivory confines. Gradually, pressure constricted his throat, making it nigh possible to utter a word beyond a sound of contentment as he watched her place a single wish upon the upright bamboo.
A man who was known for being loquacious fell into silence with her, though his chest ached and his words burned at his throat.
He surrendered instead to the creak of the bamboo filling the air, the melodious chimes from her kanzashi, and the folds of their garments against the dancing breeze of this summer's day. Together, the sounds create a symphony of tranquility during this festival made for two. In truth, little words needed to be shared, anything he would desire to say would be in the form of a wish that has been planted in the foundation of his heart.
Tumblr media
On the colorful tanzaku he wrote his desire and hung it on the branch of the bamboo after her, in hopes that it would extend to the heavens and carry his first, unselfish wish, with it:
To share another festival regarding star-crossed lovers, with one he would deny himself to. 🎋
For a few heartbeats, he looked upon the words he had written but soon found his gaze following the contours of her face, the plum blossom makeup she wore, but he lingered on the sincere smile she wore as she made her silent wish.
A wish he hoped would come true for her.
One he would have fulfilled if she would allow.

Guess what I did >:)
If you guessed another OC you were right!!! Anyways more bout him below the cut along with his character sheets.
Tumblr media
Also I know this is probably not possible but I don't really care, but his revolvers use explosive rounds. Not like it matters much with his bloody mess perk but I thought it was fun.
Tumblr media
Now how does he end up over in Vegas? Well he got lost, helped a group that contained some followers of the apocalypse. His luck then reached -13 before he really knew it or could reset it and he got his face half blasted off by a shotgun. He miraculously survived (his luck reset made it possible) and he recovered and then was told to get better help from the followers over in Vegas. He also is hoping to catch a 21-B caravan that visits to trade ever few months over in Vegas as well to get back home.
Tumblr media
Coda is a resident of vault 21-B and has lived there for his entire life. Before the incident (him getting lost and hurt) he was one of the guards for the vaults caravans that usually trade near the middle of what is left of the U.S.A. He is an excellent marksman (still is mostly because of luck and his bloody mess perk) so he was assigned to this caravan because of how dangerous the middle area of the U.S is.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Part of his right face is destroyed and missing. No right eye, no right ear and the eardrum ruptured from the blast leaving him partly deaf. Then the bottom part of his left ear was ripped off when he was young, and his bottom lips are often split.

#1 - 50
no im kidding LOLLLL #25 and 34.
(Context: Questions for Fic Writers Ask Game) LOOOOOL I WAS ABOUT TO BE LIKE "DAMN OKAY" xD
25. What other websites or resources do you use most often when you write?
My toxic habit is that I go on google and look up synonyms of a word and search until I find one I like if I notice I'm repeating myself/want it to hit different. I should be using actual resources imo but I'm too lazy to go find them.
I also tend to research random things for accuracy (e.g. for S&S D, I often check what pokemon are available in certain areas for worldbuilding; for DIOH I recently went on a whole deep dive about sencha so I could incorporate cultural stuff & things like taste appropriately, etc.)
34. What aspects of your writing are inspired by/taken from your real life?
Sweet & Sour Dipplins:
I recently said this but Kieran's dialogue regarding gayness was verbatim my memory of what little me said in response to learning about gay people & a family member's disapproval of gay marriage ("Isn't love just love, though?")
Some of the highlights of Juliana's character are based on what I aspire to be/try to be, and her character flaws are based on what I know are my own.
Not really irl stuff but I lazily decided Juliana's team is legit my Scarlet team because I didn't feel like putting too much thought into it LOOOOL
I think I pull from my interactions with my irl guy friends when thinking of what Drayton would do/say sometimes. Also same with the bromance that is Arven/Crispin.
I base a lot of Sweet & Sour Applins' behaviors off of cats. Sweet Applin is more of my freinds' domestic cats, while Sour Applin is closer to a cat I grew up with and saved from the streets. She had a very big love/hate relationship with me in particular DESPITE ME BEING THE FIRST HUMAN SHE WARMED UP TO AND THE LITERAL REASON SHE GOT A HOME-
One of the S&S kissing scenes is based on something I've experienced personally. I am not saying which one. 💀
The Dichotomy in Our Hearts:
People in my personal life often describe my disposition as being "sunshiney", but I can have my own broody rainclouds when I'm down lol. I usually appreciate being able to talk about my feelings but if I'm in a particularly rare mood of total despondence nothing will really work on me other than silence and physical touch. It's my primary love language and Kieran's own despondence being broken through with it in Chapter 2 is a very ME thing in hindsight LOOOOL
Juliana hiding her feelings is something I have absolutely done with crushes growing up, and her shy but curious and caring disposition is based off of my past self. How she will deal with her secret crush on Kieran will also be dealt with in the way I have dealt with my own (although this is coincidence and is for the plot).
A Sugary Sweet Kiss:
One time I went on a date with someone who was really really nervous the whole time, and I pulled a littleeeee bit from him when I was characterizing Kieran. I also dressed very nicely while the other person dressed down like Juliana and Kieran did in the fic. xD

The unlikely companionship between yokai and a mortal starts with tension, for she was a morsel of flesh and dark aether, with an abundance of the latter. Yet, there are worst things in this world for her to be afeared of, and she has an insurmountable amount of patience for all things that are misunderstood.
