be brave and just say it. it's obvious you're talking about eddie
on that note if i still ship buddie do you want me to stop following you
*screams into the abyss*
Ignore that. I'm fine.
Here's the thing, I love Buddie, I really do. It's such a great ship with so much potential, and it would be really cool if there was another queer character on 911 among all of the ones we already have! It's just the way the really loud shippers have been talking about canon and disregarding the boyfriend that Buck has as if, if it's not Eddie, then the ship isn't valid at all.
I had one of my BuckTommy posts twisted into a Buddie post this morning, and I'm just really frustrated by it. Hence the vague(ish) post on my personal blog without any tags so that I wasn't invading a ship/character fanbase only to piss them off (I literally just needed to yell into the void about it briefly because I can't yell at Kit in public and none of my other mutuals were responding super quickly and I just wanted it out).
But like... yeah, if Eddie was straight in canon, I literally wouldn't have any problem with it. I don't necessarily think it would be a good idea if Buck's awakening (that everyone seems to forget is about Buck) becomes Eddie's awakening, at least not for the story they're trying to tell. And it would almost cheapen the acceptance, to me? That we got in Buck's coming out scene? It's not monumental for queer people to support people, we flock together and form herds and cliques, that's just something that happens regularly. But for Buck to have his straight best friend support him? Without the story about Buck!!! turning into a story about someone else? When it's so monumental that we have a bisexual man on a network show at all? Let alone a main? Isn't that good enough?
If you still ship Buddie, you are more than allowed to continue following me - I still have a lot of Buddie posts in my queue and my likes to queue that will post, and I do really like the ship! I'm just frustrated with the hardcore shippers who want to ignore canon or twist it to meet their needs, you know?
TLDR; ship what you want, post what you want, follow who you want! I'm not trying to stop anyone from doing what they want in their own space, curating their experience however they like. the only thing I'm complaining about is my post getting hijacked as if it wasn't very clearly platonic!Buddie and romantic!BuckTommy.

Hi, you can call me Alex (or Ellie or Constellation, names aren't too important), they/them pronouns, gender not applicable.
Currently and probably forever lost in my the last of us brain rot and trying to integrate myself into the fandom so i can yell about it with other people <3 blogging my ideas and hcs so i don't have to suffer through the angst alone and can inflict the pain on other people, too.
Good Omens season 2 pulled me back in, let's see how long I will stay. Maybe forever.
All my TLOU related posts can be found under #alex writes tlou (somewhat coherent snippets and fics) or #alex scribbles tlou (ideas, me talking about my writing process, etc.). #alex talks tlou is for anything meta related or about the show, its characters, etc.
#alex edits tlou is exactly what it sounds like, I tag all my poetry or song edits with this.
Same thing applies for pretty much any other fandom.
My queue tag is #I’ll follow queue anywhere you go and my personal one is #alex yells at the void.
I am also doing a little fic recommendation series, and you can find the posts under #alex's fic library. Please send in suggestions/fics you think deserve more attention!
Dms and asks are always open, so feel free to use them if you want to!! I love talking about headcanons, meta ideas, prompts, and literally whatever you feel like sharing <3 We have a lot of time to kill until season 2.
I'm taking requests for ficlets or edits, I cannot make any promises but I will try to fill them if possible!
My ao3 with my ongoing multichapter fic Silhouettes can be found here. When I have the time I'll compile some link lists for all the blurbs I have written on here, but some of them will also be polished and put on ao3 in this series with any another ficlets that don't make it into the main one.

Heya! Welcome welcome welcome to my main blog. This stuff will be 95% reblogs of random shit and 5% me making random posts yelling into the void.
More In Depth About
More In Depth BYF
I follow from this blog, but have some sideblogs for more focused content when I start hyperfocusing on stuff and feel bad about spamming 50 fandom posts in a row, but I don't keep up with them very much. My current list, I'll update these as they become active/inactive:
@shockwavve Transformers (VERY active rn)
@grahampayser Toontown: Corporate Clash (semi active! Mostly just reblogs)
@runnin-out-ofdoodles Art (mostly inactive bc I forget to post my art)
@varikskell Destiny (inactive)
Some basic BYF:
I don't really tag things, I just hit funny reblog button. Let me know if I reblog something bad.
I don't reblog explicit nsfw art, but WILL reblog raunchy/suggestive things and sex education. I WILL sometimes reblog art gore. (I usually tag gore)
I reblog a lot of politics. If that annoys you or troubles you, don't follow me.
I try not to do fandom politics. For the most part, I think they're stupid. I'm not a pro- anything, but I'm not an anti- anything either. Just don't be weird, probably don't draw porn of minors, and don't hurt anyone, but do what you want. Don't try to drag me into "problematic" fandom drama, I don't care.

*obligatory intro/pinned post*
Tumblr media
Hey there, welcome! Call me Ellie! I'm an ace gremlin in my 20s, pronouns are she/they, and I self ship for comfort, fun, and as an indulgent creative outlet for myself. I'm mostly here to yell into the void and do my own thing, but folks are welcome to follow if they want! Most of my interests (and F/Os) usually stay within the realm of video games, books, and random internet junk.
I follow from my main blog, @hollow-reign!
❗️Minors, please do not follow or interact!❗️
more details and specifics listed under the cut!
Interests!
Some main interests that I am always happy to talk about are:
Bleach
Jak and Daxter
Hades (SuperGiant)
The Arcana
honestly just...video games in general (mobile included!). tell me about what games u like
RWBY
YouTube egos (specifically JSE)
books!! I'm a big book nerd and I love to read new stuff, so if you have F/Os from any kind of book series/novel/graphic novel/comic series etc. PLEASE tell me all about them
...and much more! If you want to know if I'm into a certain series or piece of media, regardless of format, feel free to send me a message and ask!
F/Os!
My main F/Os (with ship names) are as follows:
Grimmjow (Bleach): Ship name is Hollow Prey
Antisepticeye (JSE egos): Ship name is Corrupted Data
Errol (Jak II and 3): Ship name is Krimzon Reign
Razer (Jak X): Ship name is Smoke & Mirrors
Phoenix (Jak & Daxter: The Lost Frontier): Ship name is Mythic Dawn
Julian (The Arcana): Ship name is Fortune Favored
Tumblr media
I also have some small crushes/secondaries that I might mention here and there, but for the most part I post and reblog stuff that relates to my main ships.
Sharing?
I'm generally not comfortable with sharing my main F/Os.
If we happen to share any F/Os, please know you have excellent taste! I respect and support your self ships with them wholeheartedly! But for the sake of my own comfort and mental health, I am respectfully Avoiding and Not Looking at others' ships with my F/Os. If you feel similarly, I promise no hard feelings if you block me (and/or if you would like me to block you as well) 👍
That being said, if we happen to share F/Os and you'd still like to chat, I'd be happy to see how things go and possibly work out a tag system as needed!
And of course, if anyone has other F/Os from any of the sources I mentioned before, I would love to hear about them! 
disclaimers/nsfw content?:
This blog is a personal self-ship space run by an adult and may contain posts and content that are unsuitable for minors.
❗️If you are a minor, I ask that you please do not follow this blog! Otherwise I will block you!❗️
While I don't often post suggestive or nsfw stuff, sometimes I do! Even though I'm ace, it's always a possibility. Plus, as an adult in my mid-20s, I simply don't feel comfortable allowing minors into my personal self ship space where I may post or reblog stuff that could be mature or otherwise inappropriate.
So again, if you are a minor, please do not follow this blog, or you will be blocked!
✨ For everyone who is over 18, welcome! ✨
Like I said, nsfw posts are rare, but not completely out of the question. Whenever they do come up, I will be tagging any such posts (both reblogs and original content) with "Cyr's spice" so that people can blacklist tags as needed.
If you've made it this far, thank you for reading! Your F/Os love you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day! 💕

Howdy, traveler!
Welcome to the void under the bridge, where I stow all my creative nonsense. You can look around as long as you like! Don’t mind me, I’ll just be staring at you intently and hovering closely over your shoulder as you look at my stuff!!
Tumblr media
Tags:
eyndr tells a story - all the stuff ive written
eyndr does art - all the drawings ive made
writing help - posts about tips and advice for writing stuff
art help - posts about tips and advice for drawing stuff
paper airplanes - asks I've answered
prized jewels of the hoard - fanart from others <3<3<3 (I love you all so much)
queue cheese please - I've got a queue set up now! Sometimes I'm not on tumblr for a while so this will hopefully keep things a bit more consistent. If you see me in your notifs liking a bunch of stuff, the reblogs will follow soon lol
~*~
This is a side blog for my stories and other creative nonsense and current fandom shenanigans! Currently very much into FNAF: Security Breach so you're gonna see a whole lot of that here lol
My main is @eyndr which is mostly just for memes and general tom-foolery
My ask box is open! Feel free to yell at me, send me a prompt, say hi, whatever B^) I am a friendly creature and I hardly ever bite promise :)
~*~
If you'd like to toss a coin under my bridge I have a patreon and a ko-fi! Patreon's got a bit more stuff on it just cause they have better support for posting stories and I also like their tagging system lol
New stories are posted in their entirety to Patreon in advance as soon as they're done! That’s right, I figured out how to schedule things all nice and proper, just for you!! If you want you can pay to read the whole story all at once for as little as a dollar, otherwise, my stories will typically post chapter by chapter one day at a time (and become available to the general public on Patreon at the same rate) both here and over on Ao3
~*~
All my stories and their info are under the read more~
Unwelcome Shopper - Created from a prompt by @write-it-motherfuckers, this short story is about a very tired retail employee working the night shift, speculating about their weird little town, and working through their anxieties.
My Planet - Created from a prompt by @writing-prompt-s, this short story is about love, hard decisions, and a little bit of sci-fi stuff.
From Dirt We Come, To Dirt We Return - This is an original short story written by yours truly about a pet sitter who agrees to watch a very dirty dog. Elavo struggles both with their mortality as well as keeping their house clean.
The Stranger The Better - A finished Five Nights At Freddy’s: Security Breach fanfic! In Summary: Reader is a forever exhausted young adult who has social difficulties doing their best to pay the bills, so when they get hired at the well-paying, almost entirely automated Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizza-Plex, they don't really hesitate to think things through before stumbling headfirst into a horror mystery surrounding this company and its crew of quirky (and surprisingly kind) animatronics.
To Be Human - A finished Five Nights At Freddy’s: Security Breach fanfic! In Summary: In a distant future where humans no longer roam the Earth and the sentient robots they left behind are left with little to no clues as to the lost history of their inherited world, Sun and Moon take up the title of scientists and endeavor to create their own human in their lab (that's where you come in!) in order to shed light on the mystery that is the lost history of the human race. Shenanigans and existential dread ensue as you, a funky little lab creature given sentience, attempt to puzzle out what it really means to be human.
To Be Alive - A finished Five Nights At Freddy's: Security Breach fanfic! Also a continuation / part 2 of 'To Be Human'. In Summary: At long last, the thrilling continuation of 'To Be Human'! There are more shenanigans for Star and co to get up to, and new horrors to be subjected to! Not to mention, Eclipse is still at large and up to no good... As 'To Be Human' is a self contained stand-alone story, one could very well choose to leave the adventure as is! Considering there are some heavier themes in this one (biggest thing here being death, specifically) that's exactly what I would recommend you do if you like everything very much the way it ended in 'To Be Human'. This story is an exploration of a few ideas I wanted to work with left over from the first story, and a way to tie up some very minor loose ends, as well as a return to some characters and a world I had a lot of fun with.
Chester and the Jesters - A finished Five Nights At Freddy’s: Security Breach fanfic! In Summary: The new tech sure does seem a little strange. Chester (at least, that's what their name tag says) doesn't seem as concerned as they should be about the high turnover rate here at Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizza-Plex, or the numerous rumors about what happens to people who take the night shift. And to make matters worse, there seems to be some kind of criminal on the loose! The cops say they think the criminal is hiding out in the woods somewhere near the pizza-plex. Stress is high at the plex these days, but Chester is stoic as ever. Say, come to think of it, no one can seem to remember where Chester's application went or who they interviewed with. Their employee file is misplaced or missing just like everything else in this place. But the new tech does a good job completing their tasks, and has their own badge and everything, so of course they must belong here. It's not like someone would sneak into the plex and go this far out of their way to impersonate a low level technician. Right??
I Think I Smell A Rat - A finished Five Nights At Freddy’s: Security Breach fanfic! In Summary: Being a robotic repair rat who lives in the walls of the pizza-plex is a pretty great gig, all things considered! You fix the wires instead of chew them, and you get into tight spaces those silly humans can't reach and fix things up behind the scenes. You do your little tasks diligently, and all is well. That is, until one night when you realize all of your other repair rat friends have gone missing, and almost all of those animatronics outside the walls are acting strange… You aren't sure what it is that needs fixing, but by golly you'll fix it! You just might need a little help along the way…
THE SQUEAKUEL - Epilogue to 'I Think I Smell A Rat'! Just a silly little thing, all chill fluff. You and your rat friends play games with Sun and Moon!
Did It Hurt When You Fell? - A short little scenario request from ShiraCheshire on Ao3! Same universe and characters as 'I Think I Smell A Rat'. No prior reading required. This is a very detailed repair scene! We dive paws first into the noggin of our favorite blorbo :) And there's a few nifty little tidbits about repair rats as well!
We'll Need To Invest In Parachutes At This Rate - A short scenario request from FormDrop on Ao3! Same universe and characters as 'I Think I Smell A Rat'. No prior reading required. This is a sort of other side of the coin of the last chapter (Did It Hurt When You Fell?), where this time its Sun & Moon helping you after you've sustained some pretty gnarly damage!
Tea Time Tall Tails - A short scenario request from The_TRUE_Fanfiction_Princess and Gaiko on Ao3! Same universe and characters as 'I Think I Smell A Rat'. No prior reading required. Basically Sun, resident expert on having fun, teaches a bunch of robo rats how to get silly! Just a cute fun little chapter ^_^
Untitled Goose Fic - It's a lovely night in Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizza-Plex, and you are a horrible goose. Super short, just a single chapter, and packed full of silly shenanigans! You are a goose a la 'untitled goose game' and you decide to have some good silly goose fun for a night in the plex! You confuse and maybe even befriend baffled animatronics and knock a lot of things over and do a considerable amount of honking. That's all, its just a silly fun little fic! Enjoy!! <3
Across The World - Original story written by yours truly! 8 chapters, fully completed. Summary: The gods of this world are ancient, most of them forgotten, or nearly so. Nomen has been taught not to make deals with any old gods, should they be unlucky enough to come across one. However, when their little brother Maribus stumbles into mortal peril, they find they have no real choice but to accept the trials of one such god in order to save him.

[ID: a gif of John Oliver the comedian splaying his hands wide and saying, “Welcome to whatever this is…”]
Hello! My name is Joy Demorra, I’m an official 2x International Best Selling Author, Vampire Romancer and Shitpost Producer Extraordinaire, and yes, I am the vampire nipple erotica editor who just wants to rest , thanks for asking!
You may know me from such posts as the infamous Crucifix Nail Nipples (x), Robin Williams Punching Death Eaters Dream (x) or one of my many, many, many vampire shitposts, chronic illness/advocacy posts, or my ADHD posts. However you found me, I hope you enjoy your time here. Please have patience if you are sending me messages either here or somewhere else on the Internet. I am but a humble smut peddler, peddling my weres. I am also multiply disabled with at least one genetic disability and several chronic illnesses and mental health issues that make keeping up with a high traffic blog very difficult. I never expected to become a hub for shitposts and chronic illness/ADHD resources, but here we are!
If you ever get tired of seeing my personal health posts, you may wish to blacklist the following tags: ‘#chronic health tag’ & ‘#chronic health tag: teeth’, that way I can bitch and moan into the void and you don’t have to read it if you don’t want to.
Due to Tumblr successfully tricking me into becoming a professional author, I have several hundred ongoing projects at once, most of them vampire themed. 
Tumblr media
My international best selling debut novel, Hunger Pangs: True Love Bites is available for purchase on Amazon, iTunes, Kobo, Barnes & Noble and several other places still updating as I type. It was supposed to be a short paranormal polyamorous satirical romance featuring a vampire, a werewolf and all other manner of creatures that go bump in the night, but has since morphed into a paranormal polyamorous gaslamp fantasy romance series with potentially 5-6 books planned. Don’t ask how, I do not know. Also yes, ha ha, I’m so bisexual I couldn’t even pick a genre. 
The series follows the antics of three main characters, a disabled and partially deaf werewolf known as Nathan Northland, a 400yo mad-scientist-dandy-styled vampire named Vlad Blutstein, and Ursula, who goes only by the mysterious moniker, The Lady Ursula. It’s set in a pseudo-regency-steampunkish gaslamp era, and the characters inhabit a world much like our own, excepting of course the fantastical ideas of magic being real, vampires living among us, and government bodies being held accountable for their actions.
The book will also be available in paperback, and will also come in two editions: one with the sex scenes for those who like a little bite with their fangs, and one without, for those who like a little bit more fluff. Links coming soon! There’s also already a fandom tag, which is #Phangs and #Phangdom and because I’m a weak creature and easily lead, AU fanfic on my Ao3 under original works, most of which is Adult 18+ in nature.
You can read more about my other ongoing works by clicking on my blog Welcome Page (x), and also at www.joydemorra.com for any upcoming news and announcements. Alternatively you can subscribe to my Newsletter (x) which I do promise I’ll update soon.
Given the nature of my work, if you are under the age of 18, I do ask that you respect my boundaries and refrain from interacting with anything on my blog that is labelled 18+
I try very hard to keep my blog as safe for everyone as I can and respect your boundaries. No mean feat when you’re known across the Internet as “the crucifix vampire nipple lady” :P
If you need me to tag something for trigger purposes, no matter how silly you think I might think it is, please let me know, I will be more than happy to do so. Also while I do try very hard to be conscientious of the things I do and say, sometimes I will inevitably make mistakes or misspeak, and it is important to me that it be brought to my attention so I might correct my behavior and apologize. So please don’t be afraid to tell me when I’ve got my head up my ass. I make no pretenses at being a good person. I’m just trying my damnedest not to be an awful one.
Other places you can find me on the Internet include:
Patreon! (x) where things are about to get a drastic shake up.
Twitter (x) where I occasioanlly yell at clouds and retweet all the funny and poignant things you lot say.
Facebook (x) where I mostly hide and don’t interact with anyone because it’s Facebook, but will be more active once book stuff starts going live.
Twitch (x) where I occasionally stream surviving the apocalypse in the frostbitten world of Frostpunk.
Ao3 (x) where I post my fanfic, sometimes even of my own work because I am weak-willed and easily led astray.
I also have a Ko-fi (x) where I cross post my Patreon work for anyone who doesn’t like Patreon. It also functions are my general tip jar, so if you like what I do here and would like to help me keep doing it, tips are deeply appreciated though by no means expected. I do what I do on tumblr primarily for love, and I’ll keep doing it for as long as I can, for as long as I’m capable.
Thank you for reading this far, and remember, take care of yourselves and each other. You’re more important than you’ll ever truly know.

Hey friends! Vi here(formerly Papaya, before the papayan gods insulted me to my face and we cut all ties). This here is my main blog, and this specific post is how to navigate said blog!
I write! Quite a bit! All of my Ao3 links, as well as blurbs and stories will be under the tag ollie writes until I decide on a new tag.
If it's a textpost your looking for, try talkin' shop (for fandom things) or yelling into the void (for everything else). I'm a narcissist, what can I say?
You can request drabbles or even longfics, if I'm up to it. In fact, please do! I'll write for DC, Marvel, Star Wars, or just Things in general! I like to write about all sorts of stuff!
This is also a food positive space. My recipies or just general food positivity posts are under lick some salt.
There are some people I talk to and interact with often on this blog! They will have their own tags! I have used so many exclamation marks!
@badasspolygenderfriend -- #lis🍏
@scattered-winter -- #winter🌨
@purgetrooperfox -- #leo🔮
@spinelikericekrispy and @trippinbongos -- #krispy💫
@creaticare -- #jay🐰
@lilrubixx -- #cube🎲
@robbed-ghost -- #ghostie👻
That's all for my introductions! Have a good time here, let me know if you need anything, be nice to the employees, and come back soon!

Hi! It’s been a while since I’ve made my own post here on tumblr. This message may not reach a lot of people and I’m okay with that. I think this is more for me than it is for anyone else and I’m content with yelling into the void.
I used to be very active in the jacksepticeye community a few years back on here. Sure, I’ll still get hyped for the occasional things that pop up and getting into ego cosplay from time to time is still an enjoyment of mine, but I’m inactive for the most part. And I don’t think I ever imagined myself being so distant from the community or from Seán’s content, but I’ve come to peace with it without even realizing that I did. Maybe it was covid, maybe it was the unnecessary drama, maybe it was a lack of motivation… A lot of things could’ve contributed to why I’m not active anymore.
I guess the main reason why I’m making this post is because I saw some ego fanart on my feed this morning and it made me nostalgic. Made me think about the blogs I followed, people I knew, my old fanart. The Marvin masks, the cosplay edits, the egotober drawings, etc. I ended up going through the jacksepticeye tag and looking at what was currently being made. What the community was up to these days. There wasn’t as much as there used to be, but I saw that people were still making fanart and ego posts. It was nice to see that there were still some activity going on, that people were still enjoying making posts about the egos or the games that Seán has played recently.
I don’t know if I’ll ever become as active as I used to be in the community. I don’t know if ego content will ever be made. I don’t know how much longer Seán wants to be jacksepticeye. And that’s okay. I’ve learned that it’s okay. I’m allowed to move on to other things. Don’t get me wrong, I still watch jacksepticeye videos and playthroughs, but it’s at my own pace. I’m not worried about watching new videos as soon as they are posted or worried about being one of the first to post fanart that I didn’t really care for or put any heart behind anymore.
It’s nice.
So, to conclude this ramble, I’m happy to see people still enjoying themselves in the community, no matter what. I love that people are doing what they love and posting it regardless of how many people are left to see it. It’s inspiring and motivating to see and maybe sometime here shortly I’ll make fanart or post a few cosplay photos. I also thought about making an art account and moving all my original stuff over there. We shall see. Anyway, thank you to all who take the time to read this. You didn’t have to, but I appreciate it nonetheless. I hope you all have a wonderful day/night and remember to hydrate!
Positive vibes to you all,
Rea 💚

Misconceptions, Miscommunication, and Misinformation Pt64
Inspired by @ozmav Maribat AU
AO3   Beginning   Previous   Next
“What exactly are your conditions?” His father’s tone was both annoyed and resigned. Damian wasn’t sure who exactly he was annoyed with at this point. He had to wonder how much push back his father was getting from other League members for allowing the situation in Paris to be handled by Ladybug.
“Well, since it’s obviously an issue, the main one is that no information is relayed to anyone without my permission. I don’t care if it seems relevant or not. The last thing I need is my team compromised by something you think didn’t matter.” She was looking at Drake while she spoke and Damian had a feeling she was more concerned about him not wanting his family to know about Luka yet than anything really detrimental. He’d never admit it but he appreciated the gesture.
“I take it Damian is already following this rule since none of us were aware you knew who he was.” Even though it didn’t sound like a question Ladybug nodded. The look his father shot him told Damian he was in for a rather long lecture at some point in the near future. “We can agree that no information leaves Paris without your say so. If the problem escalates outside the city we’ll have to reevaluate.” His entire family looked shocked at the concession and Damian was tempted to ask his father if he’d had a stroke recently.
“That is fair. If things go according to plan this will all be over by next week so it should not be an issue.” Bruce just frowned at her but the others almost exploded telling her she needed more time to plan. The Agreste Mansion was basically a fortress and on and on. Damian saw a barely discernible shift in her expression and covered his ears as she let out a piercing whistle that echoed in the cave.
“Was that really necessary?” Todd sounded highly offended and Damian didn’t even try to hide his smirk as Ladybug rolled her eyes.
“Given that you were all yelling things that either don’t apply or I already know, yes it was. I appreciate the help you’ve given me but you still only know a miniscule amount about what is going on in Paris. If I want your input I’ll ask for it, otherwise my team and I can handle things on our own.”
“You keep saying your team, yet no one has seen anyone besides you and Discorde. If you have other help, why don’t you use them?” Dick was probably lucky he just sounded confused and not accusatory. He still fidgeted under Ladybug’s stare.
“That is my concern.” She turned back to Bruce and Damian saw Dick let out a relieved breath. The fact that his entire family was being cowed by a tiny, fifteen year-old Parisian with nothing but looks was one of the greatest things that he’d ever seen. “Other than that, if any of your team stays in Paris they will be required to follow my direction without question and will be given a regimen to follow to make them less likely Akuma targets.”
“We can all keep our emotions in check just fine.” Drake’s words were mumbled but still audible and Ladybug let out an amused snort.
“I highly doubt that. Repressing your emotions or refusing to show them to people won’t protect you from Hawkmoth. And given the way Damian was when he first came to Paris I highly doubt any of you are safe. I had to catch four Akuma’s that came for him in one night and I’d rather not have a repeat of that stress.” Damian kept his expression neutral but promised he’d address that with her later. He hadn’t even seen her the rest of that night but she’d apparently been following him. He couldn’t allow that kind of lapse in awareness. All of his family were looking at him now. Some with shock, some pity, but most seemed not to be surprised.
“Demon Spawn is different. The rest of us know how to handle our emotions.” He couldn’t believe those words came out of Todd of all people. Everyone in the cave was side eyeing him as if he’d lost his mind before they all promptly ignored him.
“That’s why I sent Tim. Given that he’s only conscious most of the time due to the sheer amount of caffeine in his system he’s always too tired to feel anything that strongly.” Drake didn’t even protest he just shrugged. “That and I thought you could use some on site tech help to combat Gabriel’s security system.” That was at least a rational argument.
“I’ll accept as long as he agrees to the terms. I don’t have the time or patience to deal with another obstacle, especially an unnecessary one.” Drake looked like he was going to argue but the glare Bruce leveled at him turned it into a sigh.
“Fine. I’ll follow your rules.” He shot an annoyed look at Bruce. “Just remember this conversation when you ask me why I didn’t tell you something you think you needed to know.” Bruce rolled his eyes but Damian could see the rest of his siblings mentally agreeing with Drake.
“Alright, I need to get back. If you want to stay with your family for a bit I can come back later to get you.” It took a moment for Damian to realize that the last part was aimed at him but when he did he just scoffed.
“I’m not going to let you leave me here to be questioned by these idiots.” Ladybug blinked at him while his siblings started shouting denials. He’d rather be Akumatized than left here.
“Isn’t that cute, Demon Spawn can’t spend five minutes away from his girlfriend.” He was going to stab Todd. Ladybug frowned at him.
“I’m not his girlfriend. In fact I’m in a great relationship and Damian’s not interested in me like that.” There was silence. None of his family seemed to know what to do when logic and facts got in the way of their teasing.

the big ‘so you’ve found my blog’ post;
Tumblr media
So. The follow button has led you to me, and now here you are with me on your dash. I assume you’re here for one to three reasons: the ffxiv content I post and reblog, my character(s), and/or the aesthetic content. Possibly also my riveting commentary on why ffxiv hasn’t added a sidebraid hairstyle yet. You’re all valid and welcome here. 
Maybe you’re curious about me and my OCs, but you don’t want to go digging through my blog and the absolute mess of tags I’ve amassed over the years. I’m here to present a half-assed solution to your curiosity instead of fixing my tags in any sort of meaningful way.
                                   WHO RUNS THIS BLOG?
I’m Alicia, I run this circus.
she/her pronouns, I’m cis.
I’m 31 years old at the time of writing this post.
This blog is 5 going on 6 years old.
If you see @alannahcorvaine​ that blog is also me but I don’t use it anymore, as it’s a sideblog and I moved over to this blog years ago.
I’ve been playing FFXIV since 2015.
I also play Elder Scrolls Online and World of Warcraft and have separate blogs for related OCs, content, and aesthetics.
I’m a cat person but I also love dogs.
I have a five year old black cat named Kilala who keeps me in line.
I’m not much of a people person, I’m made of anxiety and paperclips.
I yell into the void a lot, the void being my blog.
I don’t really RP outside of spectacularly outstanding circumstances these days, but character and world building are my jam.
Even if I don’t RP, I’m always down for character connections and relationships. I’m totally up for brainstorming and bouncing around headcanons.
Most of the time in game you’ll find me either standing around my house or out in the world taking screenshots. My mailing address is gpose.
I have a full roster of 8 characters on Balmung, but currently only 3 are active. You’ll probably see screenshots of the others too from time to time.
                                                    THE OCs
Tumblr media
                                      A L A N N A H  C O R V A I N E 
Your first assumption on seeing my blog name is that it’s probably the name of the titular OC that this blog focuses on. You would be correct. All of my OCs have their own blogs, however I am infinitely lazy and just end up posting screenshots of everyone here because this is where the followers are and the sideblogs end up being used as aesthetic warehouses. Anywhoo, here’s some need-to-knows about Alannah.
Alannah has two main verses: Warrior of Light and Non-WoL.
Her non-WoLverse is actually the primary one, but with Shadowbringers I’ve been focusing more on her WoL story. 
I also have an infinite amount of AU verses for her based on various media but nobody has time for me to list all of those.
In both verses she’s a White Mage, a capable healer, but focuses more on offensive elemental spells (wind, water, earth).
Alannah is my only OC with a Warrior of Light verse.
She’s 23 years old.
She has severe allergies to  grass, pollen, dust, dander, and certain foods.
Her allergy reactions are largely kept at bay by a delicate chain diadem made and blessed by padjal. It also helps correct her shitty vision, magic is great.
Her deepest fears include deep water and phurbles.
She has four older brothers: Faron, Ean, Davon, and Brennan.
Family issues. Just so many family issues. That’s an entire post on its own.
Her hair is dark brown, not black. I cannot state this emphatically enough no matter what my edits look like.
The white streaks are magical scars, the cause of them vary by verse.
Non-WoL Alannah is married to Nine Outway, they have a three-year old daughter named Aislinn.
Warrior of Light Alannah (hereafter known as WoLannah) I ship exclusively with dead ghost boyfriend Ardbert.
Deep-seated anger issues buried beneath a placid and friendly exterior.
Her aether is just irreparably borked and highly chaotic and is controlled via her staff and arcane symbols painted onto her arms in aether ink.
Her childhood dream was to be a powerful thaumaturge, which didn’t work out with her aether control issues. 
Tumblr media
                                R E B E C C A  “B R I N A”  C R O S S                                               ( @thesilentcygnet​ )
26 years old.
Born to a moderately wealthy Limsan merchant family.
2 older sisters: Pippa and Lacy.
Jacke Swallow (of rogues guild fame)  is her best friend (and secret love) since childhood.
Her entire family was murdered when she was 16 because her father made shady deals with the wrong people and owed them money.
She’s been mute since the day of the massacre after witnessing the murders while hiding in the cellar beneath their feet.
She’s been staying with Jacke and his cohorts in the Dutiful Sisters of the Edelweiss since then, though he’s the only one that knows her true identity.
A long chain of events has lead to her being kidnapped from Kugane, shipwrecked off the coast of Othard twice, sucked into a magical whirlpool, and left stranded on the First.
Will she ever get home? Perhaps, when I’ve finally decided that her ridiculous journey has been Odyssean enough.
Tumblr media
                                           K H I A R N A   K H A                                               ( @khi-tastrophe​ )
29 years old.
An incandescent ball of unquenchable rage, probably for valid reasons.
The daughter of the khan of a minor offshoot of the Kha tribe.
Had a twin sister named Khiela, who pretended to be kidnapped by an aggressive suitor and lead Khiarna on a wild goose chase across Eorzea in an attempt to find her.
Khiela and her lover conspired to and succeeded in murdering her father.
Khiarna returned to Othard and murdered the shit out of both of them in retaliation for killing her father.
She was then unanimously chosen as her father’s successor and currently reigns as khatun to the nomadic merchant tribe.
While traveling across Eorzea in search of her errant sister, Khi was involved in a relationship with a pathological liar, which has severely damaged her ability to trust people (on top of her family drama).
Currently in a relationship with Sidirahg of the Sixth ( @sidirahg​ ), who has the patience of a saint with her issues and also might be a masochist.
Khi is a shaman and uses a mix of conjury and pugilism in combat. 
She covers her fists and feet in a solid layer of rock and then lights them on fire, using a combination of speed, flexibility, and disorienting blows to fell her opponents.

Royal Screw-Ups
If you’re looking for the rest of the story, it can be found on my wattpad @ohwowhatethis, under the tags “kotlc fic” and “keefex” on my blog, or under the cut on my pinned post 
Tag list (tell me if you want to be added or removed, just for this story or as a whole):@you-are-the-vacker-legacy @ruewen-and-rising @lemontarto @a-lonely-tatertot @clearlykeefitz @percabetn {btw I’m sorry you haven’t been getting tagged dude! I kept messing up your user because I can’t read I’m super sorry} @holesinmyfalseconfidence @vibing-in-the-void @sewersewersewercouch @everyonehasthoughts 
Chapter 6:
Word count: 1,122
Warnings: descriptions of death, swearing, angsty boi 
King?! Sixteen was too young to be king! He had always known his fate but he thought his father would be too power-hungry to give up the role. It wasn’t like he could just do whatever he wanted either, Cassius would still have all of his own councilors in power, it would be nearly impossible to get them out of it.
Keefe paced endlessly around his room.
Air, air, he needed air. It was too hot in here. 
He couldn’t take the main door, that takes too long.
The window.
He shoved the window open and crept out to the ledge. He was on the second floor, but there were enough bricks sticking out of the side of the castle to use as a ladder. 
He ran across the sprawling lawn, not caring if a guard saw him. He...he had to talk to someone. He had to find Dex. 
~*~
Keefe banged at the door, not caring if he woke everyone up. 
A man, who he could only assume was Dex’s father, opened it. 
“Sir, can I talk to Dex please?” 
He hesitated, looking back at his family. "Um...I mean...sure...I mean yes, your highness...er-"
“Thank you, sir.”
Dex walked out from behind the man and closed the door behind him as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes. His hair was ruffled and he looked both confused and tired. 
“I need to talk to you.”
“Yes, I heard that much.”
“C’mon, follow me.”
Keefe grabbed his hand and ran as he led him to the garden. He couldn’t tell if the anxiety he felt was coming from himself or Dex.
Despite not being particularly careful, no one stopped them so Keefe could only assume they had remained unseen. 
Keefe wordlessly heaved himself onto the wall and put out a hand to Dex when he was situated. The red head immediately grasped it, not hesitating at all. To be perfectly honest, it seemed like Dex would be completely capable of bringing himself up the wall, Keefe just...enjoyed helping him. And he brought up no complaints.
They hopped into the gardens, nailing the landing this time. 
“I have something to show you.” Keefe said, walking down a path he rarely tread upon. 
“Alright.” Dex seemed concerned but he followed without question. 
At the end of the path sat a stone. 
“Here lies former Queen Gisela Sencen
She died as she lived, fighting for what she believed in
Whether it be right or wrong.” 
They both stared at it for a good while before Keefe spoke up.
“They made me write the headstone you know. My father was supposed to do it but he was too busy. He was too busy to write his own wife’s damn headstone.”
Dex didn’t say anything, an invite to continue. 
Keefe sat down on the ground beside the grave, Dex joined him. 
Keefe’s eyes began to water in anger.
“What kind of selfish bastard can’t even write his own wife’s headstone? She was an awful person! She betrayed everyone! But he didn’t even have the decency to not make his eight year old son write her headstone.”
The tears poured now and he buried his face in his hands. 
Dex laid a supportive hand on his shoulder. 
“She- she was awful. I don’t know why I miss her. She betrayed the whole country and she was killed for it.”
The entire kingdom watched his mother get hanged for her treasonous schemes with the Neverseen. It was likely that even Dex watched, he would’ve been old enough by most people’s standards. 
Dex seemed to think for a long moment.
“What was she like?”
Keefe hesitated.
“...she was always loud. Louder than my dad wanted her to be, but she was the one with the right to the throne so he had no choice but to put up with her. 
“She was nicer to me than my dad was. Once my dad yelled at me because I said I never wanted to get married. She brought me a cake from the kitchen and told me that she never wanted to either. She hated the system, she just did the wrong things to get back at it. The really, really wrong things.
“She was...disgusting. She was a murderer. She was my mom. I miss her and I hate that I do. I hate that we’re so similar. I hate that one day I’m going to end up as angry as she was and I hate that I might get the same ending she did. I hate that I’m already on the same path that she was on. I’m getting stuck in a marriage at 16 with no say in the matter and a whole kingdom  to rule and I just can’t handle it.”
He completely broke down.
Dex was silent for a moment before speaking. 
“I can’t relate to what you’re going through...like at all. And I’ve never been very good with the whole emotional support thing. But it’s not too hard to go up from a murderer. I mean so far you’ve killed zero people that I know of so you’re already ahead.”
Keefe cracked a small smile.
“I know that you aren’t going to end up like her.”
“How can you tell?”
“You feel guilty about actions you haven’t even committed. She didn’t even feel remorse about what she did do.”
“Thank you, but…I’ll still be stuck as king in 4 months, and as a husband in 3. I almost can’t tell which one is worse.”
Dex chuckled. 
“I think you’ll be a great king. You care about your people, I think you’ll be able to fix  what’s wrong.”
“Even if I am some kind of great king, I’ll still be stuck with a wife I know next to nothing about.”
“...who would you rather be stuck with?”
Fuck it, it’s now or never.
“Well, there is this one person.”
“Yeah?”
“Yeah they’re...amazing. They’re kind, and smart, and beautiful. Talking to them always makes my day better. I haven’t known them for long but they make me happier than any random wife could.”
“They sound pretty great.”
“Yeah, he is.” 
They both went silent. 
Keefe was expecting some sort of backlash, a ‘you’re disgusting!’ or ‘he?’. Instead, Dex carried on. 
“Do you have a shot of being with him?”
“I hope so, but he’s probably way too good for me.” Keefe didn't know how how Dex didn’t seem to be noticing the pointed glances he was giving him.
“I doubt that.”
“How so?”
“Well, you’re pretty great. Plus, I mean, you are the prince so that’s probably an unfair advantage.” 
Keefe laughed. 
“Yes but I hope that that has no weight in his decision, I would never use my power to force someone to do something they didn’t want to.”
“And right there is another reason you won’t end up like your mother.”
Keefe smiled.
He believed him this time.
