Meeting and Dating Charlie MacKenzie

(Not my gif)(Requested by @jotaro-spengler)

(Sorry this post took so long. I literally changed the entire meeting story last minute because I’m an indecisive perfectionist so it took a lot longer to write than expected. Hope you enjoy!)

- You and Charlie getting together was really all Tony’s fault. He just had to go and mention you: shine the spotlight in Charlies mind right on you and say look here you fool, a beautiful woman who you already care about and who already cares about you.

- That wasn’t really how it happened of course. All Tony had actually done was say something along the lines of “now take a look at my sister-”, using you as an example in some scenario he came up with rather than giving his friend a recommendation.

- But, in Charlie’s half listening mind, all he heard was “take a look at my sister” and take a look he did.

- You were a little younger; which tended to be the case when it came to younger sisters of friends that were his age, and you were pretty. You had a nice personality, you thought he was funny on occasion, and you weren’t a total stranger who he could easily find a flaw; that he didn’t already know about, in.

- Why not give it a shot? Worst case scenario, you say no or he breaks your heart and loses his best friend in the future. But hey, it was Tony’s idea to begin with, right?

- So he visits you at work, making small talk; as per usual since this was a fairly normal occurrence for the two of you, before trying to ask you out as casually as he could.

- Initially, you think that you’ve misunderstood him or that he’s misspoken, then you think that he joking, …and then you just think he’s gone crazy. You quite literally ask him if he’s feeling alright because it’s so out of the blue and unexpected.

- But, once you come to terms with the fact that this is a legitimate request, …you agree.

- I mean, it’s not like the idea never popped into your head. You’ve known the guy since middle school: of course you’d considered it; though you’d never imagined that it would actually come to fruition.

- Nevertheless, here you were, giving each other somewhat awkward smiles and arranging a time and place.

- Your first date is initially going to be just a regular dinner at some diner down the street that the two of you; and your brother, often frequented but you quickly find that it just feels wrong to go there: like the two of you are still just two friends.

- So you scratch that idea and find yourselves wandering around town, buying some food from a street vendor and taking in the atmosphere of the night. What started out as a; frankly, uncomfortable first date ends up turning into one of the best you’ve ever had.

- It’s no surprise that the two of you get along. The question is whether or not you fit as a couple so; regardless of whether or not you’d normally do it, you decide to have your first kiss before the night is over to test out the romantic chemistry between you.

- It may not be the most romantic first kiss in the world; considering the fact that you literally both talk about and agree to it like it’s some sort of business deal or logical course of action, but you enjoy it nonetheless and it gives the two of you some clarity.

- He likes you and you like him and the two of you are happy together. You just hope that it lasts....

- Charlie really doesn’t care about what other people think, in fact, he sort of likes to bother and gross people out so he never minds engaging in a bit of pda. If he feels like kissing the hell out of you, he’s gonna do it; regardless of whether or not there’s people around.

- Interlocked arms or holding onto his arm as the two of you walk together. He likes having you close to him so literally securing you to his side by your arm is a helpful form of affection.

- Handholding. He’ll usually swing your arms back and forth whenever you do.

- Cheek kisses. He’s a fan of both giving and receiving them so it definitely goes both ways.

- Excited, feverish, and passionate kisses. You tend to just lay one on each other at random; oftentimes catching the other person a little off-guard, so these types of kisses are pretty common in your relationship.

- Kissing in the rain; sometimes with him kicking his leg up in the air behind him.

- He tends to just call you by your given name; or a teasing nickname on occasion. He finds that using pet names just aren’t his thing and that a lot of them cause him to roll his eyes more than anything else.

- The two of you really don’t have a “usual” cuddling position since you tend to just do whatever feels right or makes the most sense. Some days you cuddle with your head on his arm, other days he’s the big spoon, and sometimes you’re the big spoon.

- Back scratches and shoulder kisses.

- Taking baths together.

- You know the meme about the person getting into their partners shower fully clothed so that they can ask them a question? That’s the type of shit that he does constantly. Sometimes you just have to sit back and consider the fact that you may be dating either an idiot or a crazy person.

- Getting his help when you’re trying to pick out your outfits.

- Going to his open mic nights.

- Having poems written about you. …They’re pretty bad....

- If you're dating Charlie, you have to stop caring about how other people view you because there’s no way you’re not going to do; at least a few, ridiculous things out in public together. The two of you are constantly doing dumb shit so just try to ignore any judgmental looks you may or may not receive.

- Chasing each other around and playing other childish games.

- Frolicking and dancing like children of the night~

- Double dates with Tony and his girlfriends.

- Diner dates.

- Wandering around the city together.

- Buying from different street vendors and food trucks.

- Cruising around town with his top down and the radio turned to your favorite station.

- Sitting out on his roof with him.

- He loves seeing you smile so expect a lot of dumb jokes and comments that are meant to make you laugh.

- Teasing each other. You like to call him “nice” just to mess with him.

- Convincing him to do different things with you. You know that it wasn’t his idea to go on that Alcatraz tour with Tony so it’s safe to say that he can be persuaded into accompanying you just about anywhere.

- Taking different classes together; though you probably shouldn’t take him to those sorts of things …for the sake of your teachers sanity.

- Getting visited at work. He’ll always insist that he was “in the neighborhood” but he absolutely was not and totally drove all the way over just to see you.

- Speaking of work: he would definitely offer to help you with whatever task you had to do just to ease your workload and spend more time with you. It would also probably get him into the good graces of your boss so the man/woman would be a lot more lenient with him hanging around.

- Finding your own ways to quiet his rambling. He tends to just keep talking whenever he’s nervous or feeling shy so you’ll have to learn the best way to quiet him whenever he gets like that; which usually means you’ll be kissing him or saying something he wants to hear.

- Telling each other stories. His are usually exaggerated to an outrageous degree but you never really mind; it’s sort of more amusing to see where his brain takes him than to just listen to a normal story.

- Family get togethers. You’ll usually sit in the kitchen with him and his mother while Tony and his father watch some sports game in the living room.

- Interesting interactions with his family; namely his father. The man’s a little hard to get along with but he’s certainly entertaining.

- He'll always check on you before leaving you alone, making sure you’re okay before he ditches you to do something; even if it’s just using the rest room for a minute.

- Him getting advice from Tony. Regardless of whether or not you want to picture yourself as the mans sister, he’s going to be your best ally when it comes to surviving your relationship; so you might want to get on his good side if you weren't already.

- Having to get through his sabotage stage.

- Charlie tends to get scared and break up with people when things are getting too serious so don’t be surprised if; or when, it happens to you. The good thing is that, if it’s meant to be, he’ll come to his senses and dedicate himself towards getting you back; usually with some big cute gesture.

- Just not feeling like yourself? No problem! He’ll be completely understanding and accept that you just aren’t happy; all while doing whatever he can to put a little pep in your step.

- He’s not an incredibly jealous person but he is cautious. He’ll never refuse to let you hang out with someone or do something but he will keep an eye on your relationships with other guys. Not because he doesn’t trust you but because he doesn’t want you winding up in an awkward position because you couldn’t see the red flags of encroaching romance.

- He’s somewhat protective of you; oftentimes sticking out his own neck to save yours. Although he’ll usually; awkwardly, try to settle things in a peaceful manner after an aggressive outburst at someone or something; usually because he only then realizes how big and threatening they are.

- The two of you fake fight every now and again but real fights only happen once in a blue moon. You get along incredibly well so it isn’t often that you can’t settle things in a peaceful manner; especially since he approaches you very calmly whenever he has a problem.

- Because most of his issues with you are reasonable, fights usually end before they even begin. But if they don’t and you wind up having a legitimate argument or fight, he’s always willing to apologize; especially since he’ll feel extremely guilty for upsetting you.

- He mainly shows you that he loves you but he definitely isn’t opposed to saying the actual words.

- As afraid of marriage as he normally is, he actually proposes to you pretty quickly. I guess when you know you know?

Dark Narn AU

Recently I mentioned I had some ideas for a Dark Narn AU and @outofangband expressed curiosity, so I decided to copypaste my notes here :)

The reason this AU was conceived was that I wanted Túrin and Nienor to get buddy buddy with Gothmog and Glaurung…. Literally my motivation for this lmao.

WORD OF WARNING:

1. This is almost 3 pages long on Gdocs 😭 2. This is actually dark, so mind yourself. CW for mentions of nonconsent, manipulation, murder, slavery, the whole nine yards and, of course, incest.

And btw, this relies on my headcanon/understanding that there were mortal slaves in Angband as well as elves.

When teenage Húrin and Huor are cornered by orcs in Brethil, they are in a dense spot. Húrin stays behind to hold the orcs while Huor runs up the hill. Huor would never have left his brother behind, but it’s a mess and he doesn’t realize what happened until he’s being carried away by other soldiers/rescuers and screaming his lungs out for Húrin, who’s pulled back by the orcs and then taken captive to Angband.

There he undergoes some brainwashing by Melkor, who, true to the essence of their Narn interactions, sees he can profit more from corruption than from killing this agent. By this point Húrin is a teen and hasn’t met Turgon yet. He breaks eventually and becomes Melkor’s champion.

We have Húrin, and now we need Morwen. To keep the chronology, I prefer having her be captured during a raid on Emeldir’s group of refugees, when they’re migrating west to escape the Battle of the Sudden Flame; that can also have Rian either being captured as well, or escaping and following canon and marrying Huor and mothering Tuor, which I prefer for this AU (also casts a shadow on them as… replacements for the true heirs, sort of! Both having dear family members, who are also the eldest and the legitimate heirs, captured by Morgoth). Either after his brainwashing is complete, or during it, she is given to Húrin to marry as a token of Melkor’s regard: Morwen the beauty, the heir of the House of Bëor, the only fitting consort for the heir to the house of Hador, etc. Túrin is born in 464.

Lalaith is born two years later, which is a weird year because that’s when Beren and Lúthien steal one of Melkor’s silms! Angband has never been more somber, but there is talk of hope among the slaves, of which Morwen hears some, as well as the name of Beren her kinsmen who she knows and loves. She’s fiercely proud of him. But then Húrin, who is head over hells smitten with her, but who’s still wary of her loyalties, casually mentions in bed at some point that Beren was killed by Carcharoth (a lie meant to shake her/destroy any hopes of rescue), and that despite the loss of the Silmaril, Melkor is somewhat satisfied that the whole ordeal ended up dividing the elven kingdoms further apart, and confides in her about some of the plans for the following war (Unnumbered Tears).

The very next day, Morwen kills Urwen. She knows how other female thralls fare, and she knows that as soon as Húrin is dead Melkor would have no more use for them. Like canon, better dead than a thrall. To her, killing Urwen is not only a mercy, but an act of love. I think Morwen was about to end her own life too, or maybe end Túrin’s, but they caught her before she did any more. Maybe she locked herself with her children in a bedroom, ready to off all of them, and someone intervened before she could.

This sends Húrin into a rage out of despair because he really dotes on Urwen no matter the AU, and Túrin takes it all pretty hard, as he adored his sister and feels betrayed and confused. Melkor ofc enjoys the opportunity to turn Húrin even more towards him, and encourages him to get another child from Morwen to make up for the one he lost, whether she wants it or not.

In this AU Niënor is conceived (at least) nine months before the Unnumbered and not nine months later. During all the pregnancy Morwen is watched, to make sure she won’t do anything drastic. Túrin is one of the people keeping tabs on her. Morwen names her Niënor, lamentation, and instead of being offended, Húrin laughs and says it’s an appropriate name for a warrior that shall bring woe to her foes, who will lament upon seeing her. Morwen is forbidden to be alone with Niënor and they are closely watched; as a result, they aren’t very close in this hc, as opposed to canon. Niënor grows up being reminded that her mother wants to kill her, never wanted to conceive her in the first place.

Both Túrin and Nienor have strong mommy issues. Túrin is always keeping Morwen company and they have a very similar temper, but he tries to keep his visits a secret from Nienor. Nienor loves Túrin enormously but confronts him when she learns he still visits Morwen; also I think she sees Morwen in Túrin a little, too, because they’re so similar. It drives her mad. There’s a lot going on here with sibling competition / possessiveness / jealousy; Nienor doesn’t want Túrin to get along with Morwen, against whom she has a big grudge; she also doesn’t like that Morwen gives to Túrin the love she has always denied Niënor (according to how Niënor perceives the situation). She wants Túrin to choose her but Túrin just evades the question or gets angry and they fight.

I like the idea of Húrin heading the fight against mortals in the Unnumbered, and him and Huor meeting on the battlefield, and killing each other.

Túrin is crazy about Nienor, though you wouldn’t guess it by looking. Not only they’re the only mortals around who are equals and thus relatable on any level, he projects a lot of his Urwen grief on her and is very protective and possessive. There’s a lot of unresolved tension that they don’t even acknowledge. When they’re together onlookers get a feeling like there isn’t space for anyone else - though Morwen is an always-felt presence and the only crack in their bond. Túrin is stoic and reserved and his canon obsession with fighting Melkor is changed into a type of family pride. Right now I think he’s really mad that Dor-Lómin was given to the Easterlings and his mistrust of Melkor grows. He’s also concerned with the hidden elf cities, especially Nargothrond and Doriath because of their ties to the Silmaril heist.

In this AU Túrin (and Húrin before he dies) is buddies with Gothmog who is sort of a mentor to him, and Nienor has a great friendship with Glaurung, whom she rides on sometimes, maybe into battle.

I had considered the idea of either Túrin or Nienor meeting Gwindor by accident on the woods and goading him and fooling him, following him until they got the path to Nargothrond, while the other sibling followed them from afar. One sibling goes into the town and the other comes with the army down on them, no need for bridges I guess. Or the bridge can be deliberate sabotage. Since I like Nienor riding Glaurung, it can be Túrin who goes in, as in canon - OTOH idk how good Túrin can be with deception no matter the AU, so maybe it is Nienor... though, really, is she any better? Also, would she have a voice in council? How sexist are they? Maybe if she got Gwindor’s ear somehow… idk, thoughts!

Anyway, Finduilas is captured and not killed, though I’m not sure how much better this is. Maybe both Túrin and Nienor take her for consort in a smoking hot, nonconsensual, incesty edain sandwich.

I haven’t thought ahead of this yet, that’s all I have! They need to have a cool and tragic ending, though I’m still unsure how. I feel like they need to fall with Brethil, but then I’m unsure what happens. Also I really don’t want Túrin and Nienor to have a permanent falling out and dying hating each other, it’s not my thing. I feel like they need to die together, like in canon.

Things to consider:

>> Tuor and Aerin as kin who are held captive. Do Túrin and Nienor know they exist and are there? If they do, how do they react?

>> Morwen + other mortal thralls, or maybe Morwen + having ELVISH thralls to serve her, which Melkor does to show Húrin how much he honors him bla bla. I love this concept.

>> Húrin and Gothmog banter, Gothmog warming up to the mortal once he sees him being an absolute savage in battle, Húrin and Gothmog competing to see who causes more havoc

>> Glaurung is super mean to Morwen once and that tickles Nienor so much she just gets attached to him. Nienor joking with Túrin that she rides a dragon (Glaurung) and he is ridden by one (the dragon helm of Dor-lómin)

>> Gurthang???? I think Túrin needs a black sword. I’m SUPER attached to the visuals of Nienor using an axe though.

The Untamed AU where the cast plays D&D.

For the five headcanons meme! Sorry for the delay, we had a houseguest!

Nie Huaisang DMs, obviously. He’s a rule-heavy kind of DM, a “every city has a sewer system fully mapped out and every character has a motive” kind of DM, and Mingjue complains about the books and maps and figures taking up a whole shelf in their apartment, but he also buys his brother a nice DM screen for his birthday one year, so. If there’s a criticism to be had for Huaisang as a DM, it’s that he sometimes keeps things a little too close to the vest, which is either accidental because he’s a big-picture thinker or on purpose because he thinks it’s funny to watch his party lose their goddamn minds with paranoia. No one can tell and holy shit does no one trust him because of it. He killed Wen Ning’s character one time (okay, like, six times) and suddenly Wen Qing’s cleric won’t let any NPCs within ten feet of them without Zone Truthing their ass.

The Party consists of Wei Wuxian, Jiang Cheng, Jiang Yanli, Wen Ning, and Wen Qing, plus Lan Wangji who doesn’t know what DnD is when Wei Wuxian first approaches him but got railroaded into “having friends” and “socializing” by Xichen, we’ll get to him.

Wei Wuxian is a bard, obviously, he’s the party face and specializes in controlling the battlefield (and their enemies) rather than doing buffs, because they have two clerics and therefore have the buffs thing well in hand. He also took a bunch of feats that let him use other class magic and between his weird affinity for necromancy and his ludicrous proficiency block (bards, baby), he’s absolutely the most mechanically broken character in the party.

Jiang Cheng is a straight up and down fighter, he has a sword and seven attacks and he’ll make it everyone’s (read: Wei Wuxian’s) problem. He deals damage to their bard about once per session, on average, and won’t admit that he likes the game, but also gets very annoyed when they’re late.

Jiang Yanli is also a cleric, and game-changing buffs, like Bless/Bane, are her entire jam, Nie Huaisang understands that Yanli is the most perfect being ever to draw breath but also he hates her so much. Every time they start a big dramatic fight and they get to her, Yanli very gently says “I would like to cast…” and Huaisang starts marking down stat changes.

Wen Qing, therefore, can mostly save her spells for healing, and also she has an axe. Don’t ask questions.

Wen Ning is a ranger and he actually has a great Charisma score (this beautiful child used Con as a dump stat, thus his several untimely demises and his sister’s total distrust of everyone), and Huaisang bridges the gap between Wen Ning’s IRL stutter and shyness and his mechanically excellent numbers by basically making every benevolent NPC they meet adopt him. His ranger is legally the heir to a dukedom.

Lan Wangji joins the game several levels in, because Wei Wuxian texted him about it every week and then cheated and texted Xichen, who cheerfully bullied his brother into it and then went out to get drinks with Mingjue. His paladin is basically just Himself, But Sword Magic, and he has never made a non-magic-related Charisma roll in his life. Jiang Cheng, who does not trust Wuxian to be their party face, is tearing his hair out–Wangji’s paladin has a great Cha score! His magic is very reliable! He could be such a good party face! But no, he seems totally content to let Wei fucking Wuxian get them all arrested by the king of wherever. No one can figure out how Lan Wangji of all people knows enough about DnD to design his character, actually? These are advanced weird feats, where did he find them???? (It eventually comes to light that he has been getting coffee with Wei Wuxian once a week and letting him level up his character as an excuse to go on dates.)

The Plot basically starts out as the Sunshot Campaign, with elements of a few other major plot devices sprinkled in for flavor. Wen Ning and Wen Qing are enemy plants for, mm, three sessions tops before Wen Ning blurts out all their secrets to the rest of the party (”They’re our friends, a-jie! We can’t–we can’t lie to them!” “Remember how we’re going to be murdered if we don’t help Ruohan, we can absolutely lie to them.”). Wei Wuxian is gone for three months of sessions in a row after a massive falling out with Madam Yu leads to him having to scramble to keep his college scholarships and also figure out somewhere to live, and then he moves in with the Wens and his life stabilizes a bit and he gets pneumonia that lays him flat out. He’s fine, trust Wen Qing, he’s just annoying. During that time period, it becomes evident that, A, Lan Wangji actually does enjoy at least some of their company on its own merits, because he keeps coming to sessions, and, B, Jiang Cheng is extremely transparently working through some stuff in-game. It’s the most civilly he’s worked with Wangji this whole time, though, so Yanli will take it.

Jiang Yanli is not saying that she and Huaisang engineered this because she decided that she was sick of listening to her brother pine obliviously, and because she decided that she and Jiang Cheng should bond with their future brother-in-law, and because, okay, the Wens needed some friends in, like, the worst way. But she’s not not saying that. Huaisang really does believe that Yanli is the most perfect person in the world, if he was straight he would marry her tomorrow, but also fucking stop Blessing your party, you make his life so hard.

Bonus Sixth Headcanon

Jin Zixuan talks an extremely big game about DnD being a ridiculous game for people who can’t make friends like normal people (he says, like he has even one friend besides Mianmian). This provides a lot of material for the party to roast his ass when he starts dating Yanli (again, after a short and horrifically awkward relationship arranged by their parents when they were in high school) and she brings him, complete with rogue character sheet. He’s good at everything that isn’t Being Civil To Other Characters, and to Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng’s abject horror, the three of them work together like a well-oiled machine.

Yes, Jiang Yanli is very satisfied with her life choices, why do you ask?

#the untamed #mdzs #nie huaisand #wei wuxian #jiang yanli #starlight writes stuff #headcanon meme #please accept this offering of 'nie huaisang and jiang yanli should have been best friends'#jyl is happy to let nhs play puppetmaster as long as his ultimate goal is the happiness and wellbeing of the people she loves #jzx plays.......a sport.........undetermined sportball. what sports do colleges even have?#point is that he told yanli (photography minor) that his coach told him to invite her to practice so she can take some pics for the website #and this ended with him turning scarlet and yelling that he invited her because he loves her and R U N N I N G away #wwx and jc cannot emphasize enough how much this man does not deserve their perfect sister! like okay sure jiejie if this is what you want #but! they will grant that jzx being willing to sit in a confined space with them plus wen qing (who Is Not Having It) for 4-5 hours weekly #and get dunked on the entire time does improve their opinion of him a little. at least he'll suffer for his love.#also lwj is that player who never takes notes but somehow has a comprehensive mental list #of every feat racial trait or otherwise altered ability number active in the party at any given time #there are sessions where all he'll say between fights is 'add two' and people have stopped asking if he's sure #He's Always Sure #Anonymous #asked and answered

psst hey, partially a headcanon question, but also iust a general one: like, what the fuck is up with the bounty hunter. why is he like that

LMAO I’m assuming you mean “what is up with Bounty Hunterbeing all stoic and shit, why is he like that?” so that’s what I’m gonna focuson in this post.

Also, let me preface this by saying I 100% subscribe to @cynthplop’s BH face headcanon. I didn’t really have any solid ideas as to his personality or background before we started sharing headcanon theories, so this is basically her interpretation, and she’s given me permission to post this and use some of her art on her behalf!

(I do have an Alternate Backstory for him that I’ll focus on in another post, but if you wanna learn more about Cyn’s specific take, you should definitely go send her some asks, too!)

Tardif was born in England and is half-Turkish on his father’s side. His father (Hilmi) was a bounty hunter who came to the country on a mission, but lost track of his target. He fell in love with a woman named Calantha, whom he married, and once his son was born, Hilmi was determined to leave his old life behind.

But his former employer put a bounty on his head for failing to complete his mission, and Hilmi was murdered not long after Tardif was born. He grew up only hearing stories of his father and seeing his face in half-finished sketches. Calantha never spoke much about his father’s former profession, not wanting her son to follow the same path.

When Tardif was around ten years old, his mother became ill and passed away. If the authorities learned he was an orphan, he would be sent to the workhouse, so Tardif decided to take his chances on the streets. While scrounging through his mother’s belongings, he discovered a locked box under her bed containing Hilmi’s helmet and hand axe. He could only surmise that his father was a former soldier or mercenary. He took his father’s tools of the trade and left his home, living the mean life of a vagrant and resorting to odd jobs and petty thievery to survive.

It wasn’t long before he met a local barmaid by the name of Marina, who took pity on Tardif and decided to look after him as best she could. She tried to recommend honest work, but opportunities were few and far between for a boy without any serviceable skills, and his mixed heritage and lack of patronage kept him out of any apprenticeships for local guild work.

Reluctantly, Marina recommended he work as a delivery boy for the local mafia. The tavern was a favored meeting spot for the local crime lord, so she had the connections to get him a job offer. As he grew older, he started filling out to a rather intimidating stature, so he quickly leveled-up from petty delivery boy to hired muscle. He picked up a few tricks of the trade from his fellow enforcers, such as pugilism, and learned to read people at a glance.

It wasn’t until he was around 17-18 that he dedicated himself to the life of a bounty hunter. Marina had been under pressure for years to become the local crime lord’s arm candy, but she continued to rebuff his advances because she was not-so-secretly in love with Tardif. One day Crime Lord had enough, and he had her whacked while Tardif was working a job in another city. Knowing full well that Tardif would seek revenge on him, Crime Lord withdrew his protection and had a bounty placed on Tardif’s head.

Knowing he lacked the skills and the means to take his vengeance, Tardif fled the city and dedicated himself to honing the skills of his trade. It would be several years before he would be able to start checking off all the names on his Vengeful Kill List, but Tardif is nothing if not patient.

So, with that being said, there’s a good reason why he’s all stoic and shit. His life as a bounty hunter has exposed him to the ugliest aspects of humanity, and one thing he encounters time and time again is just how often people will lie to save their own skins. Hardened criminals who have committed unspeakable atrocities for years and years, suddenly they promise to turn over a new leaf and never do anything bad again if he agrees to let them go? Horseshit, all of it.

If there’s one thing Tardif has learned in this life, it’s that words alone are hollow, paltry things. A man should be judged by his actions, and Tardif is the poster child for this philosophy. The reason he maintains the stoic façade is because he’s used to being surrounded by hypocrites who talk a big game but never follow through. If Tardif has something to say, he’ll say it in as few words as possible and get straight to the point, no pussyfooting around. He’s direct and efficient in everything, and this may come off as rude to those with more delicate sensibilities or better social graces.

Another reason for his lack of barks is that he’s just not very witty. This is by no means an insult to his intelligence – he’s far from stupid, even if he lacks a proper education – but he’s certainly no Spider-Man, able to engage in verbal repartee with his opponent, cramming ten clever insults into a single sentence. While the enemy is wasting time monologuing, he’s just gonna get up in their face and suckerpunch them; wham, bam, thank you ma’am!

I think he and William get along quite easily, given that they follow similar professions, and both have been jaded by the injustices they’ve seen perpetrated by powerful men who think themselves above the law. They also synergize well in battle, each of them being experts at hunting and tracking. He also gets on well with Margaret and Missandei for those same reasons, but especially Margaret, given their shared enthusiasm for the hunt and the thrill of the chase itself. They both get a little *too* enthused when they’re Afflicted…

It should be noted that his mask is based on an owl motif, which is fitting since owls are known to be silent and efficient hunters. He also relies heavily upon his mask to conceal his expression because it takes a lot of effort on his part to maintain a good poker face, and he can’t let the enemy take advantage of that.

Hello once again. That sphinx writing was just top tier amazing. I have another if you don't mind of course. This one's a bit different though. I'm think Vandal savage immortal type. Like Mcs been alive for a very long time do to some mystic event or something but she's not you know trying to take over the world. Shes just like really crazy intelligent and really badass i guess, knowing like a couple dozen languages and easily how to fight supernaturals. But thats all up to you of course.

EEE! Thank you! I’m so happy you’re enjoying my writing!

General Headcanons

-MC knew the place was a Haven (ha) for supernatural people. MC purposely picked Havenfall because of it so she knew that there was a large number of supernatural people. She knew from like the get-go.

-MC was rich, but ran into Code Black a while back and lost like most of it because they were convinced it was illegal money. She proved it wasn’t, but she didn’t bother getting all of the money back because she figured it was a pain in her ass. However, Code Black is now very wary of MC and do her favours so she doesn’t cause to much trouble about it.

-MC adopted Grace here, so she’s actually more of her mother than like her sister. They just called each other sister because MC doesn’t age. As well, Grace is part of her family and is like her something-something great grandkid.

-MC is Scandinavian and was a legit Viking. She still has Viking tendencies and likes to drink. She has no idea her original country and just grunts when asked because c’mon man, she was busy doing shit back then. Like she knows.

-They moved to Havenfall after they lost the money to an old house MC owned.

-Immortality was because of some trinket she picked up that was the artifact of a God or something. She has no clue- she just stopped aging.

-JD kinda knew about it a little. I mean- MC swears a lot in random languages and some of those JD only knows cause their dad speaks them. So they knew something was up.

-Grace going missing because of Rip had MC going nuts and just ranting in Norse and just ripping into the Face Stealers with her skills. JD just kind of hovered and watched.

-”Okay, I knew something was up, but an Immortal Viking?!” “Hey, what’s wrong with being a Viking?”

-JD and MC like to chat about languages and swear words and taveling the world. MC has a lot of old knowledge about places and she really gets confused about new names so JD finds it hilarious.

-Their relationship is more built on mutual understanding of a shitty situation brought on by their powers and how they never asked for them and it’s hard to deal with.

-MC can pick up JD and bench press them. They find it really hot.

-MC knows Nessie and Nessie hates her. They refuse to say why.

Razi

-Razi only knew because JD let something slip about MC being odd. Razi started paying attention and oh yeah- odd.

-Jonas should not piss off a couple thousands year old Viking. You get punched, kicked and… yeah.

-Razi and MC get along great with their love of knowledge. As well, given how old MC is, the leylines really hold onto her better and don’t need to draw on the Nassar family.

-Baba Yaga is wary of MC because MC has and will beat the crap out of any witch she crosses. Witches know about MC.

-Rahim actually knows MC because of a situation regaurding his shop and a very annoyed Fae a few years back. MC stepped in, and Rahim was the one to tell her about Havenfall so he’s not surprised to know she’s there. The fact she’s dating his brother?! Weird.

-Razi likes to try and recreate some old foods of MC’s even though she says some of them were gross in hindsight, she misses some of the sweets. MC appreciates it.

Mac

-Viking and werewolf wrestling!! Both are thrilled by this. Also, they work out a lot together- before the reveal they often jogged together.

-Mac didn’t know but she isn’t to upset. Secrets are secrets and all that. She does like hearing history from MC though.

-Code Black doesn’t pull as much crap with Mac here because well… MC can ruin them and they already fucked up by forcing Grace to join them. So… Beau finds himself arrested quickly when he presses to much.

-MC and Mac are very cuddly and happy and they like showing off for one another and hunting. Annabelle makes a lot of faces.

-The Beast knows MC because they’re both old. So actually the Beast respects her, MC respects the Beast and thus the Beast leaves them alone. Because they both know they probably would kill each other.

-Comic Con is sillier when MC ends up getting an axe and remarks it looks like her old one. And MC knows Medusa. (May or may not have been a fling)

Diego

-MC is older then Diego and has had similar experiences as he has. As such they’re a lot closer off the bat.

-Diego and MC often bicker about languages and laws and tend to argue over time periods. It’s kind of annoying for others to watch cause it always ends in kissing.

-Grace going missing means very angry Viking going after vampires. Diego only lives because he managed to dodge while explaining.

-MC is very amused by Diego and his attempts to cook and explains that she is a viking and has eaten a lot worse than the eggs he made when he figured out spices make things taste better.

-MC loves Diego very much and when Dracula attacks him, she snaps and really goes to town. Dracula does fight her off but damn it’s close.

-Diego turning human is terrifying for MC because she’s like him. She doesn’t want to live forever alone.

Antonio

-Her magical immortality is how he can revive his sister. Also why Frankenstein is after her- though like she’s been fighting him off for years.

-Antonio has to put up with Grumpy Viking who has no qualms destroying shit. He is mildly amused. Victor is not. Lillianne is.

-MC and Antonio get along better in second season but that’s cause Antonio stopped trying to bring back his sister with MC as he realized it was wrong and not because kiss. They only kiss in second season.

-MC kind of views the kidnapping a little like a marriage kidnapping though she doesn’t say so. She does like him now though so whatever.

-MC and Antonio share similar morals so both of them just casually talk about murder and shit together. It’s disturbing to people.

-MC is very hardy so she’s shocked she got hurt so bad by Frankenstein. It’s really strange.

Vanessa

-It’s MC who nearly married Dracula but chose not to cause like she decided she did not want to be married to him in the end. He isn’t happy about it and MC was so thrilled he died.

-Oh, hell it’s her. Is MC’s only thought about dealing with the Bride and then oh, crap- she’s stronger then normal.

-The Helsing Organization knows about MC but didn’t know about her being able to bring back Dracula so Vanessa is assigned actually to keep an eye on her and not to protect her. The romance is a little more touchy.

-MC and Vanessa bond over shiny weapons and fighting skills. Both also love anime and stuff so it’s adorable.

-Vanessa is a little worried about beign with MC cause MC is immortal and won’t die, and she worries about MC after she dies. She knows MC has had lovers and even families before but like… she wonders.

-MC may or may not be secretly wondering how to turn Vanessa immortal cause she’s tired of her loved ones dying.

Kyrie and Lightning for the character thing

SO I took up an entire day to try and figure out which Kyrie this could be about (because I sincerely doubted it was Irving, lol).

I’m going to assume that you mean the person from the Devil May Cry series…? I’ll write headcanons based off her photo and the initial description on Wikia.

Kyrie

headcanon A (realistic): just based on her dress, this girl does not do a lot of physical fighting, does she? Maybe she’s not a healer since I think DMC is realistic enough to not have their healers wearing white (or maybe it’s the other way around?), but that’s the vibe I’m getting, that she is the Soother.

headcanon B (hilarious): Her dress is nice, don’t get me wrong, but I’ll bet she has sneezed and popped a seam before. It does not look like it respects movement.

headcanon C (heart-crushing and awful): I mean, she’s the childhood friend and love interest apparently, which in my experience usually turns out disgustingly awful and unfair, except in the 0.04% chances that it doesn’t (hi, Tifa). So my headcanon while knowing absolutely nothing about Kyrie’s story is that she and Nero have promised to marry each other at some point in the far-flung future, but before it could happen she was murdered by axe-crazy boss man of the week.

headcanon D (unrealistic but fuck it basically): I caved and read more of her summary so I could actually offer something unrealistic. I am stunned that she survived her game, absolutely stunned, so my unrealistic headcanon based on the supposed last scene is that Kyrie shucks her songstress gig and puts that Devil Bringer to good use. ^^

Lightning

My girl, my flash of temper.~

headcanon A: unlike me, Lightning is very pro-military. Similarly to people in the U.S., Guardian Corps came along at a very vulnerable point in her life and offered her a way to provide for herself and her family, so she probably associates law enforcement/defense with order and structure and stability.

headcanon B: Why does Lightning have that belly ring, anyway? Easy: it was a bet she lost with her GC buddies. They thought she wouldn’t hold up her end, and she did, earning tons of fabulous street cred with them.

headcanon C: Lightning spent so much of her time raising Serah that she’s now, what, 23 or 24 and has no idea how to be a young person with the world ahead of her? I know the end of Lightning Returns kind of implied that she was okay and headed off to live her life, but I’m worried that having that much freedom and lack of structure is actually crushing her in the new world.

headcanon D: You know what, fuck it–Lightning went out and got a nice house in the country to limit strangers’ access to her. Then she bought a horse and named it Odin. And now she raises a bunch of horses with the names of all the summons from the original FFXIII. Yeah.

#thanks for the ask!#Lightning Farron #Kyrie DMC #sorry I didn't get this out yesterday #saw it just as I was leaving work and was like OH NO I GOTTA FINISH. WAIT. WHO'S KYRIE? IRVING? NAH IT CAN'T BE #personal #fandom #headcanons #character ask

Congratulations Stacey you’ve been accepted to Crimson Revolt as Walden Macnair!

↳ please refer to our character checklist

Your application immediately drew us into everything that set Walden apart from so many of the Death Eaters we already have, Stacey, and you managed to personify the chilling nature of Walden’s personality to such detail that it was haunting to see. I love all the thought you put into your application and how thoroughly you thought about his background and what might have influenced his decisions. Having him be an executioner is perfect! We’re really excited to see what you do with him! *your faceclaim change to Charlie Weber has been accepted!

application beneath the cut

Trigger Warning: Personality Disorder mentioned / explored in headcanons. Blood / Murder mentioned very briefly in para and questionnaire, but neither are explicitly described.

OUT OF CHARACTER:

INTRODUCTION Hello! My name is Stacey (her/she). I’m 18 years old and in the Eastern Time Zone.

ACTIVITY Generally about 6 or 7. I know expected activity levels are higher/stricter for those with more than one character and think that meeting the activity requirements shouldn’t be a problem.

TRIGGERS *removed for privacy

HOW DID YOU FIND US? I play Gilderoy for those who don’t know, but I think initially I found Crimson Revolt through a post from the promo blog while searching the tags.

WHAT HARRY POTTER CHARACTER DO YOU IDENTIFY WITH MOST? Keeping with the generic response, I have to say Hermione Granger because of her determination and loyalty. She was the “geek / goody-two shoes” of the Golden Trio ( always following the rules, encouraging Harry and Ron to study, etc. ) which is definitely how I feel around any of my friends. From playing a key role in defeating Voldemort to becoming Minister of Magic, I think her character is overall extremely empowering.

ANYTHING ELSE?

IN CHARACTER:

DESIRED CHARACTER Walden Silas Macnair.

Walden: “Mighty” or “Strong fighter”

Silas: “Man of the woods”

Macnair: “Son of the heir”

FACE CLAIM If the Admin Team is feeling it, I’d prefer to use Charlie Weber instead of Jake Gyllenhaal.

REASON FOR CHOSEN CHARACTER For a few months now I’ve been really interested in picking up another muse, but wanted to make sure I had the time to really give them the attention that a new character needs. I was always fascinated with Walden though, especially because I’ve explored him a couple times before in one on one roleplays.

He’s someone who was raised in what I imagined to be a very formal household where absolute perfection was expected of the children, meaning strict manners even with their friends and families. Where the Macnair household may have differed from most other Pureblood families is that when they weren’t entertaining guests or attending prestigious events, the children were expected to be outside getting dirty, causing trouble for Muggles, fighting each other - Samael and Aline Macnair believed that promoting activities like these was the best way to help transform their boys into steadfast men. As a result, the woods will always feel more like home to Walden than any mansion.

Young Walden was a submissive boy easily pushed around by others, however, which angered his father to no end. In an attempt to toughen his youngest son, Samael Macnair resorted to punishments that bordered abuse and included forcing Walden to accompany him on creature executions. The killings became an art to the boy, who began studying magical creatures years before he attended Hogwarts because he enjoyed thinking of new, more satisfying ways that they could be killed. When the Dark Lord began to rise, Walden didn’t need his father’s encouragement to offer his services to the cause.

From the age of twenty to twenty-three, Walden was married to a respectable woman named Emily. After her death, he became absolutely consumed with his work at the Ministry and for the Dark Lord. As he didn’t wish to marry again and had failed to produce an heir, he began to view his work and role in the rising war as his legacy and something that is simply expected of him to fulfill.

As an Executioner, Walden didn’t need to be guilty of anything to spark the stories that he was a sadistic, sick man. The rise of the Dark Lord and unexpected death of his wife only heightened these rumors, none of which he chose to confirm nor deny. He doesn’t care about being remembered for years to come in a positive or negative light, but is simply doing what he feels is his duty as a Pureblood.

PREFERRED SHIPS // CHARACTER SEXUALITY // GENDER & PRONOUNS Walden (he/him) is heterosexual. Considering the stigma surrounding homosexuality during this time period, I don’t see the idea of being with males in any romantic or sexual way as being something he would be comfortable considering or even thinking about. He’s drawn to women with wicked tendencies and an appetite for inflicting anguish, typically those allied with Death Eaters due to his strong dedication to the cause. He’s attracted to beauty and is prone to obsession, often going out of his way to observe the women who spark his interest. He would rather spend his time stalking than talking, but derives pleasure from introducing altruistic women to a darker side of humanity and themselves.

CREATE ONE (OR MORE!) OF THE FOLLOWING FOR YOUR CHARACTER:

HEADCANONS

Family: Ruled by a meek mother and detached father, affection was as rare as birthday presents in the Macnair household. From a young age, Walden appeared to have inherited more from his mother than his father, as even in a crowd he basked in his wallflower nature as though he were alone. As a result, his father was stricter with his youngest son than he was with his oldest. On more than one occasion, William would say that he had sacrificed himself to save his brother from a punishment from their father, but Walden liked to think that /he/ had been the one to sacrifice his brother.

Marriage: Similar to his brother before him, Walden’s marriage was arranged by his sixteenth birthday. He was married when he was twenty to a woman who he quickly decided wasn’t the worst choice for a wife. Emily was perhaps the closest he ever came to loving someone before her gruesome death three years later. Official reports declare it the result of an unfortunate run in with an unidentified beast, but the only witness to the accident - Walden - still refuses to speak of it twelve years later.

Employment: Walden succeeded his father as Executioner. When he was only six years old, his father brought him to witness his first execution, which sparked a lust for blood that neither parent expected from their youngest, more reserved son. As he failed to marry and produce an heir as his elder brother did, being the Executioner became a way for Walden to retain the approval and respect of his parents and Pureblood society, hence why he takes it so seriously.

Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder: Consumed by details and rules, Walden would rather avoid a task altogether than be forced to complete it imperfectly. His inability to bend his morals causes an erratic temper that, in his mind, would justify violence committed against even an ally if their words or actions inadvertently sparked suspicion. He has a tendency to obsess over his work both as an Executioner and Death Eater, placing a higher importance on such responsibilities than on personal relationships.

Random: Walden learned about poetry from the songs and chants his father used to sing during his executions. As violence was promoted more than literacy in the family, he used to secretly buy or steal Shakespeare books and hide them under his bed to indulge in at night.

Being sorted into Ravenclaw rather than Slytherin was a large disappointment for himself and his family, but not one that anyone dwelled on. “It is what it is,” His father had written to him the next day, and that was that.

As he grew older, Walden gradually began to isolate himself. He still identifies with Pureblood ideals, but has failed to maintain close friendships with those who may have helped advance his place in society or the Dark Lord’s ranks.

IN CHARACTER QUESTIONNAIRE: ♔ If you were able to invent one spell, potion, or charm, what would it do, what would you use it for or how would you use it? Feel free to name it:

Walden’s inner Ravenclaw relished at the question, as inventing something was a fantasy he often entertained himself with as a child. Many years had passed since the nights he spent making lists of potential spells and potions, however, and he could remember only one. “A potion that could make someone invisible for a while would be useful. It could be called ‘Indespectus’.”

♔ You have to venture deep into the Forbidden Forest one night. Pick one other character and one object (muggle or magical), besides your wand, that you’d want with you:

Hogwart’s Forbidden Forest was a scene Walden knew well from his years at the school and the few times that work had sent him back. The word “forbidden” was far too intense for what hid in the shadows of the trees. “I would bring my axe. I haven’t missed a target with it yet,” He answered. Sometimes, he felt he knew the striking tool better than he knew his wand, despite the fact that the latter was meant to be catered to his character. “We work best alone, though. Other people tend to get in the way of getting a job done properly. Sometimes it feels like the axe has a mind of its own, if that’s any consolation.”

♔ What kinds of decisions are the most difficult for you to make?

His first thought was spontaneous decisions, yet the more he considered it the more he realized that most things he did were either upon instinct or pure routine. “I don’t fancy hypothetical questions,” Walden decided. “They’re pointless, really. It’s like… Playing a game and making up the rules as you go, then you never know when it ends. That’s how people get their heads stuck in the clouds.”

♔ What is one thing you would never want said about you?

There was much hearsay already about Walden that floated around, albeit he had never paid much mind to any of it. As far as he was concerned, those who didn’t work gossiped and the cycle was one that was as unstoppable as the cycle of life. “I work hard,” He stated. “I wouldn’t want anyone to say otherwise.”

WRITING SAMPLE:

“That’s enough, Macnair! You’re just being bloody cruel to the thing now,” Dalton laughed. The sound that came from Walden resembled both a grunt and a dry laugh. He swung his axe down heavily again in an attempt to join the multiple slashes into one large cut. “Besides, it’s almost three. Didn’t you say you had somewhere to be?” With one more swing at the dead creature, Walden stepped back to marvel at his masterpiece. Dalton stepped forward to discard the body and he watched intently like an artist that is willing to sell his work only if he can see for himself that it will be displayed properly. His axe in one hand, dripping with thick blood over his shoulder, he started back down the hilltop on which the execution had been executed, the sacrifice had been made. The scene replayed in his mind and he sang to himself - “I’ve reached a place where the willow don’t bend…” When he returned some time later to his secluded residence, just large and new enough to display a stark difference to the wilderness around it, the house was cold and dark and lifeless - just as Walden liked it. In the depths of his personal library, ( an extra bedroom that had been converted to such ), and by the light of thin curtains, he watched the blood dry and settle into the cracks of his palms before scrubbing his hands of a job well done. It was a quarter before three when he decided upon a suit to wear and five minutes before the exact hour when he arrived at the funeral. Immune to the tears and sniffles around him, Walden stood so quietly by his mother’s side that she didn’t know when he had arrived, but in all fairness she likely didn’t know when or how she had gotten there either. She wouldn’t question it, though. Alina Macnair never questioned the way things were. Samael Macnair had inadvertently taught his children many lessons that as adults, impacted them greatly. For example, the songs he sang on the way back from an execution taught a young Walden what a poem was and set the boy on a path of fascination for the art of word that his father swore was to blame for his sorting into Ravenclaw rather than Slytherin, like his older brother. It was the fact that he forced his subdued son to accompany him to his assignments that set Walden on a greater, more dangerous path, however. He adopted an obsession for every part of the process of death that dominated every other hobby of interest. Samael taught his boys that Macnairs took life - they did not mourn it. As Walden met William’s eyes over his mother, they shared a brief moment in which the brothers appeared to silently agree that though six feet under, it was still best not to disobey their father. A familiar sensation in his left forearm broke the gaze. The man’s brother followed him so quietly that Walden didn’t know he had left the burial until he called out to him. “It isn’t over yet, Walden. Where are you going?” He heaved a silent sigh before facing William. He wanted to tell him to stop trying to grow a beard because he looked too much like their father and someone might get confused, he might get confused and - "I know, Will. I have to go to work,” Walden stated blankly. “It’s an emergency.” “Our father’s death is an emergency.” The reply had the potential for some bite and some anger, but it was too soft for either. “This is a real emergency,” He countered coldly. It wasn’t that he was glad his father was dead, but Death was one debt that everyone had to pay eventually. Life went on. He wondered when his elder brother had forgotten that, or if he had never properly learned it in the first place.

Two pairs of the same eyes faced off in the graveyard, a safe albeit still uncomfortable distance from the funeral of the man whose color they had inherited. To Walden’s surprise, William dropped his eyes first and displayed an expression his brother had never witnessed before. His voice nearly croaked when he asked -

“He’s dead. Didn’t you ever love him?”

“No,” Walden answered, quickly and disgustedly as if he were a child being accused of having feelings for a girl for the first time. “Of course not. I was his son - I obeyed him and I was loyal to him, but I didn’t love him. You shouldn’t have either. People don’t live forever.” Then, Walden turned his back on his family, those both alive and dead, to heed the call of the Dark Lord. As he left, he whistled to himself -

“There’s not much more to be said, it’s the top of the end -”

When he returned some time later to his secluded residence, just large and new enough to display a stark difference to the wilderness around it, the house was cold and dark and lifeless - just as Walden liked it.

He ate and showered and crawled into his empty bed, chanting to himself until he couldn’t keep his eyelids open any longer -

“I am going, I am going, I am gone -”
