OKAY. so, first: thank you so much i love you. Second! Lazarus! Here’s a thingy I made for him somewhere else ^^

Character’s full name: Lazarus

Reason or meaning of name: Stole it from Lazarus (of the bible) who was a jesus type and died 4 like 3 days b4 jesus came n got him.

Character’s nickname(s): Laz, The Monster (as like. A title)

Birth date: I honestly didn’t think abt it cos it made my brain hurt

Gender: he/they dude! He’s fine w/ it/its but not 4 gender reasons.

Music for the mood: creature - half-alive, the nowhere king frm centaurworld, me and my husband - mitski

Basic rundown is he was made at a time where belos rlly wanted his curse *gone*, and had been researching ways to get rid of it. He came across that thing (the thing eda and Lilith did) to share the curse, and he’s like. Might as well try it. So he creates lazarus, and laz is a pretty loyal guy, like. Belos raises him w/ traits of selflessness and obedience, and ofc plays up the curse so when he finally tells him to do the curse sharey thing, Laz is all for it. It works well! Fortunately for belos and unfortunately for Laz. Laz is suffering, he nearly dies but the curse doesn’t let him, despite the fact that belos refuses to share palismen, and when he does (which is once) laz refuses for morality reasons. This is how he realizes “oh shit i was only made to die wasn’t i”, confronts belos, belos tries to kill him. But Lazarus is goopy. And we all know that belos being goopy means he’s still alive. And uhhh yeah he nearly dies, makes it out narrowly, and he lives in the woods on the isles, fuckin belos shit up, and experiencing a weird love-hate relationship w/ the bat queen and the locals!

Another thing that contributes to that is when he finds a scout afraid after they didn't do too well in training, and he decides to help, and he ends up having a mentor- like relationship w/ them-and one day they see his face. And at this point he's already got the rot creeping up his face, and. And they look terrified. They ask what happened. And he. He realizes. He scares them. He says it's okay, nothing's wrong- and even when they return to 'normal' he can't help but notice the glances they cast at the right side of his face, at the growing pink glow behind the mask he never takes off anvmore. <- He's so nice to the scouts bc he went thru it too. But younger. With higher expectations. And he doesn't quite get that not everyone has to deal w/ that. So he's just. Yeah. He mother hens them be he doesn't quite understand that many of them are the age he is now rather than the age he was. And they don't know he's their age physically. Like. Based on actual years he's like fuckin. He's like 5 or 6. And so basically that stress and emotional abandonment coupled with his experiences with the Curse and Belos leads to the Confrontation.

Palisman: His palisman is a jackalope named buck <333

On the topic of backstory n shit! I think that he’d have a frenemy relationship w/ Lorelei, in which she sees that he was also a victim but still resents him for her husband’s death, so its a very fragile relationship, mostly transactional in the beginning. Alas, she is a compassionate person, and over time they become…. Friends? Its an odd thing really. Also! Eda and Laz have a tentative friendship based on shitty curses and learning to deal with them. Laz helps protect the Owl House when he can, befriends Hooty (he finds Hooty So Interesting), and Eda takes the fall sometimes when Laz makes an oopsie. Also teaches him magic sometimes. ALSO. on the Eda x Laz thing, he’s around before Eda, but he ages slower and spends a lot of time regenerating after. Events. So yeah. He also ends up being the Fun Uncle of the HexSquad! Sad but funny thing is that Laz is so used to being called mean things that he hears Any Derogatory Term and his ears twitch like heh? Me? Poor guy. He does get a happy ending though! He is forever changed but he gets better.

Really wanna write smth for him at sm point -.- ANYWAY yeah that’s Laz!!! Sorry this is so long ahdgshdhddh. Here! Are some images (couldn’t find others i didnt feel like scrolling forever sorry <333)

Something about them refusing to break contact, even in between kisses... Something about the fact that they feel the need to keep hovering, basking in the moment of closeness, when the tension between them is palpable, and they don't dare to fully let go... Something about the fact that when they need to let for air they simply aren't willing to let any more distance get between them than absolutely necessary... Their passion is unparalleled.

They always kiss like they have been yearning for that kind of contact for years, and like now that they've gotta a(nother) taste they never want to stop again, it's honestly mind-boggling.

personally i really dont like the theory about totk potentially being about seperating ganondorf from demises curse when its framed as in that gan was just an uwu innocent guy used as a literal puppet by .. just another one-note incarnation of evil™️

like, im all for a "good" ganondorf or him as an ally or something, but this just robs him of so much while adding nothing

the way demises "curse" is often spoken about in fandom is as if its a literal spell, magic he did in his last moments, i always interpret it as a warning, if they contiue this way they will have to battle someone akin to him again and again, there cant be life without death ect

he is a force of chaos and shadow in a world that wants only control and light, if the ones capable of shaping the world keep striving for a one sided one a force akin to him will rise again, to tip back the scale, they want it to be one sided, but all has to return to balance

the gods (in canon?) want a purely "good" world, but who decides what is good and what isnt? neither a purely "good" world nor a purely "evil" one is the correct one, its a battle of balance, both want to tip the scale in their favor, but it has to be balanced, so they fight again (and even if the "good" people are in charge, will they discriminate against those they deem to be too different, will those suddendly be stapled as evil, as something that must be eradicated?)

its like ... they keep fighting a force of nature, and try to seal it forever, but some forests are laid out to be burned down every few years so it can sprout anew, eliminating the fires destroys more than it protects even if it may look like the objectively good thing at first

yet they keep trying to fight it instead of adjusting life with it, if the world of loz has to fall to grow anew, theres surely a way to work with it instead of fighting it again and again, next time always being worse than the last

( this at least is how i see the canon as it currently is, in my own AU comic its a very different deal )

#ganondoodles talks #loz #totk #a little rant from twitter im putting here too #this isnt well researched nor articulated since im notoriously bad at that #there are alot of people that have a way better reading of the lore in connection with japanece myths #ive grown a little tired of people wishing for gan to be freed of the curse tm so he can be purely good #like ... man that makes it uninteresting

Crepus *talking to a sister in the church*: Listen, I have no idea what's up with him. He just woke up and told me he was in pain, I tried to give him medicine but he refused because he said it wouldn't work.

The sister: And you still gave it to him, right?

Crepus: Yeah, of course, he took it himself after I insisted. But after two hours it just got worse, he seems used to it and when I asked him what could've caused it he just...

Kaeya *8 years old, sitting on the bed, visibly in pain and generally annoyed*: IT'S BECAUSE THE ARCHONS HAVE FORSAKEN ME! I'VE ALREADY TOLD YOUUUU!!!

Crepus: Did that...

Kaeya: THERE IS NO CURE! LET ME GO HOME, DILUC SAID WE CAN PLAY PRETEND WHEN I GET HOME!!!

ngl i think 'Ozymandias' is such a fitting yao and arthur poem for the 19th century.

there's yao, the worn out old nation and empire who has tasted defeat more than once (the qing dynasty itself was him being defeated by another!), facing arthur at the height of his arrogance, cruelty and flooded with the triumphant industrial power turning the wheel of british imperialism. to arthur, yao is that colossal wreck. but ah. yao has seen so many nations burn bright but short, and who is to say that destiny isn't written in arthur's future?

If the curse of Delos was to provide an anchor for the soul that used the physicians cure then… it’d be fitting that the soul would have to stay on Delos.

And there’s a lot of existential horror on the mirroring of Calypso’s curse with this new one Leo comes back to life with. They’d have made their choices- Calypso to support her father and Leo to meddle with magic he didn’t understand- but would have never expected these to be the consequences.

And it’s not the same of course, because there are people on Delos, and it’s a real place people can find. They can find it way more easily for the same reason Leo is trapped there now- it’s anchored in place. Leo could also probably leave for short periods of time but would get sick or start fading away. And he probably would at the beginning, because he’s so used to running when he doesn’t feel safe. And he’s started running toward something now that he has people he loves. And because I work platonic Calypso and Leo soulmates into everything, it would be really interesting if this extended to her as well in some capacity. Not that she’s trapped on Delos too, because she deserves her freedom but that Ogygia is a somewhat neutral spot for Leo. Like, when he came back to life and went to get her, he didn’t start feeling any ill effects until they got back to the real world.

His friends hear, either because Calypso manages to tell them or he gets a letter through and while they’re so relieved and happy, well, how are they supposed to get to him when he’s back in the Mediterranean Sea? The only reason they were able to make it there in the first place was because of Leo. Reyna nearly died trying the trip without a ship. Nico’s too weak to shadow travel there and Hazel isn’t practiced enough to do it herself yet.

Frank knows what it’s like to have his soul tethered to something he doesn’t want, and Hazel knows what it’s like to be stuck somewhere she doesn’t want to be. Everyone is trying to think of something they can do to change this, to make it so he can leave. They can’t even ask Apollo for advice because Zeus… did something to him and Artemis has gone off into the wilderness to the point where even her hunters can hardly contact her. The only one that doesn’t actually let this get in his way is Jason. He’s packing a little hobo bindel and buying a hotspot so he can video call with Annabeth and the other Hephaestus kids about building those shrines he’s promised because hello, his best friend is alive and it’s possible to reach him and well, if that’s the only place Leo can be, then okay, Jason will just move there too.

#leo valdez #calypso pjo #jason grace #hazel levesque #nico di angelo #frank zhang #hoo #heroes of olympus #blood of olympus #valgrace #if you want #it can be read either way but honestly I think in this case it’s kind of sweeter as a platonic dynamic #either way jason is Traumatized (tm) and this seems so much simpler than Leo being in the underworld #curse of delos #idk it kind of like ‘give me horrors and give me the kind of love that makes it easy to just side step them’

Day 11: Eyes

Bowser wouldn’t say he had a thing for humans, but…

Surely, no one will blame him for liking human eyes?

Sure, he thought for sure that Princess Peach had the prettiest eyes he would ever see -kind eyes that acted like polished mood stones as they darkened to a navy with anger or lightened into aqua with interest and joy (never because of him though…).

The less said of Mario and his eyes, the better.

But Luigi’s?

They were a lot like Peach’s. Not in eye color, with his being a deeper ocean blue, but with his kindness shining through his eyes like a beacon. Hell, they absolutely sparkled with curiosity, but that wasn’t what made them better!

Unlike the other two humans, Luigi’s eyes acted like a kaleidoscope, shifting between shades of blue every second he looked at them.

They always darkened with fear (especially when they locked eyes after…), but they still shimmered with concern, interest, and even some sort of awe that had Bowser dumbstruck with how much the human seemed to be feeling every second.

And whenever he’s happy? When he’s honest-to-Grambi content and smiling -even around Bowser? Especially around Bowser?

Those eyes become absolutely beaming- brighter than the Mushroom Kingdom’s sky -brighter than Peach’s, even- and he liked the way they were shined with his delight, his joy in even simple things like the colored glass of the Dining Hall, or the way he ‘discreetly’ poked around his upper plastron and shoulder scales…

He liked those eyes even when they became a single gradient of concentration -maybe even determination- as he plodded through countless books that even the Royal Librarian seemed surprised to see.

He liked seeing the way the human’s eyes flickered between humor and shock when scandalized.

He liked when his eyes gleamed with playfulness before darkening with something calculating when he actually joins in Bowser’s mischief (he will always treasure the memory of the Ink Incident).

He likes the way his mustache frames those expressive eyes and makes his smiles seem all the sweeter to see.

He likes watching his eyes turn wide and shyly avert from eye contact when embarrassed, the human’s blush spreading around them in contrast.

He-

Oh.

Oh fuck, no.

He’s so fucking Doomed.

Luigi couldn’t concentrate.

It’s not that the book wasn’t interesting (who would find the world of prophetic magic boring?), but Luigi could feel the burning stare of someone radiating from the back of his neck.

At first, he thought it was the Librarian again, or even a visiting politician who is curious (i.e. nosy) enough to see what exactly he was doing, but all he could see was Bowser seemed to be looking at anything but Luigi.

He pretends to not be sad about that.

Still, the prickling sensation wouldn’t go away until he tries to look around. Was it not for the fact that Boos were barred from the library, Luigi would have been driven to paranoia.

It doesn’t answer the question of who the heck is staring at him, or how to make them go away.

With a frustrated exhale, Luigi -gently- set down the book before shoving his seat back to stand.

If he’s not going to have peace, then by the stars he will find it!

The noise from the chair seemed to have snapped Bowser out of his stupor, as the giant Koopa watches him cross the room with interest.

Luigi... didn't actually know what he'd do when he finds whoever-it-is, but he honestly didn't ask for much to want some semi-privacy!

Which is why, after climbing multiple bookcases in search of someone, he was understandably startled when he felt a large hand -no, paw- wrap around his waist and lift him high in the air.

"Waa- B-Bowser!?" Glancing down, which is a first with the Koopa, Luigi ends up doing the one thing he hoped and dreaded in equal measure.

He locked eyes with Bowser.

Just like last time, Luigi felt like he was sinking into the Koopa's gaze, almost helpless as those ruby-red eyes seemed to bore into him.

It's a harrowing experience that has his insides feel like they turned into hot, wriggling worms and that his knees had been replaced by what feels to be off-set gelatin.

It's a feeling that makes him feel more vulnerable than usual -as if his everything is splayed open for the Koopa.

It's... oddly more intense? More than usual, now that he thinks about it.

........

Is he... going to say something?

With an awkward cough, Luigi seems to bring the Koopa back to the present as he -flinches?

What-?

"What are you doing?"

And now Luigi flinches, realizing that his train of thought has run off its rails from what is currently very important.

"Can anyone come into the library?"

"No." Bowser seems to be... concerned? "Visitors are usually limited to political officials, scholars, and -of course- the Royal Family. Why?"

"I-" Put like that, it seems silly to doubt, but... "It feels like someone is watching me."

Several emotions pass over the Koopa's face, one of which seemed recognizable before he schools his face into something neutral.

"How long?"

"Wha-"

"How long has it been that you've felt it?"

"Um," Luigi looks at the clock mounted to the right of them, seeing that it's nearing dinner time. "An hour? Maybe two? Up until-" he was going to say 'now', but (with alarm) he realizes he doesn't feel the prickling feeling anymore. "A few minutes ago."

Bowser suddenly brings him closer to his chest, and it took everything in Luigi to not shiver in something-not-caused-by-being-cold before realizing that the Koopa's chest is vibrating.

"Come with me."

He's doomed.

I was about to go to bed but apparently Well Thailand presented their lineup for 2024 and these are the BLs they have planned. The first two (Can I Love You & Go Alone with Me) look sweet but pretty basic, and the last one (Term Begins) might not even be a full BL. Mafia Prince and Bookworm is probably exactly what it says on the tin.

As for Black Forest... I will cling to the fact that it's got Haii, Long and Gun. 🥴

#jane watches stuff #lee long shi #haii sarunsathorn #some of these look cursed #who monkey-pawed my faves into these promo posters #when i wanted more roles for haii and long this isn't what i meant (probably)#i mean maybe the promo posters are a whole choice (tm) and the proper series will deliver #right? 🤡

got my first job interview in like 10+ years tomorrow, frantically cramming and writing down questions to ask etc wish me luckkkkk

#quitting your job blind and emigrating is fun and all #until you realise you now need to do job application stuff again #truly the most cursed of human activities #also this is not even a job i massively want or anything #it's p low down my list but they're the first to offer an interview so #here's hoping i hear back from the better school with a better position #i am prepping #which means i have downloaded Saw 5 to watch as soon as i get home and stocked the cupboard with emotional distress snacks #my saw trap would be writing a cover letter and then making a phone call to arrange an interview #and i'd fail and get my leg bones sucked out by a jigsaw bone sucking device (tm)
