Sol, here's a question for you (to help keep your blog not completely dead /j): What's a song you think fits one of your twst oc ships (or multiple ships if you want!) the most?

THANK YOU FOR KEEPING MY BLOG ALIVE TARU (bc i am realizing just today that it is astro's bday and i skipped medi too so. Here we are.)

Medignis: Just the Way You Are by Bruno Mars (while they're together). Why this song? Because I can guarantee you that at some point, Meditrina accidentally spills everything she's ever felt to Ignis and she's crying by the end but his resolve is to make her feel like she's enough. He wants her to know that she is enough for him, no matter what!

Post breakup (future): Just a Dream by Nelly, it's mainly on Ignis's part because he is the one that caused their breakup due to how he changed in their third year. But by the time they're out in the real world, he regrets it more than anything and above all, he is desperate to know if she's moved on or found someone knew. She hasn't but he doesn't know it yet.

Irnyx: Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls, BUT it's mainly on Onyx's part, which makes it all so much more ironic. The lyrics "I just want you to know who I am" literally apply to him because she was the one who changed his entire life. She was the one who didn't take pity on him and instead decided to do something about it. Afterwards, he realizes how much she loves him (albeit platonically) and he falls for her quite quickly to the point where every second spent with her is a good one, one where he slowly lets down his walls around her.

Coletitus: No Hay Nadie Mas by Sebastian Yatra (the Spanish version). This song is specifically for them because Colette was practically kicked out of her family's hearts and she ran away, finding Titus. While he knew that she was innocent, naive and afraid, something drew him to her and he wanted to stay by his side. And so, he abandoned his relentlessly flirty ways to stay with her. No matter how hard it got, no matter how many times she tried not to break down, he stayed by her side. He always reassured her and when the day came of him saying that he couldn't ever think of replacing her when she was the only one for him, she completely lost it.

Ivyvil: Some Day My Prince Will Come. This one is more complicated but Ivy always dreamed of being a pretty princess and being treated like one. However, at the sight of Vil, she realized that wasn't her dream anymore. She was the one that wanted to save him, to protect him, to shield him from the horrors of his own mind. She wanted to take him away from everything so he wouldn't beat himself up anymore. In the song, it's mainly about finding the "prince" (the true love) and once they meet, it means finally having a better life, one that's much happier. The same could apply for both of them: Vil finally gets someone who loves every part of him, even the dark parts and Ivy gets someone who is more than willing to help her be the best version she can be. So in a sense, the song could be for both of them.

Jamivy: You & I (Nobody in the World) by John Legend. She's the one constantly hyping him up snd telling him he looks good, giving him all sorts of little compliments, especially when she knows he feels down. He feels as though when he's with her, everything is possible and while she is a bit chaotic, he can't help but feel peace inside of him. She's always fussing over him to make sure he's in tiptop shape and it's in these moments--when her eyes are worried about him instead of vice versa, like he always does--that he feels like there's no one else in the world but them.

Ivytrey: She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5. In every sense of the word, Ivy knows that, as much as he won't admit it, he wants to be taken care of. It's engrained in everyone and he'll constantly say he doesn't need to be taken care of, but she's insistent on it. Her insistence makes him realize how much she's sacrificed of herself over the years and as hyperactive as she is, as aggressively kind as she is, as much as she keeps a happy mask on, it's just that: a mask. He wants to take care of her, no matter how much it might be. To him, it's nothing at all. Compared to everyone else, he isn't anything special but the fact that she still goes after him is enough for him. He just wants to be her anchor, the one who grounds her and the one she can be truly vulnerable with.

#🪶.oc writing #the perfect healer: meditrina #the pretty dragon: ignis #the altering cyborg: onyx #the cold flower in the flames: iris #the elegant princess: colette #the itinerant knight: titus #the poisonous anarchist: ivy #i'm gonna be honest i forgot some of their tags for a sec ITS BEEN THAT LONG #'why didn't you add sebastian' bc my brain fried up at the thought #BUT THIS WAS VV CUTE TO THINK ABOUT TY TARU #no thoughts only ivyvil actually being open with each other and showing each other their darker sides #and the other's like 'slay but you need to go out with a pretty outfit if you're gonna be evil'

*ੈ🌩️‧₊˚— just for tonight, i don’t hate you + katsuki bakugou.

૮˶ᵕ ༝ᵕ˶ა synopsis — when there’s a bounty over your head and a reward for your safe return to your soon-to-be husband and future king, touya todoroki… you should be mindful of who you fall for. you should pretend to hate the man who seeks the prize money you’d bring. and the dragon prince, katsuki bakugou, should probably do the same.

⭑ warnings — please read + mdni ! characters aged up, smut, angst, arguments, one-bed trope, enemies to lovers, love confessions, arranged marriages, fingering, marking, biting, scratching creampies, hair pulling, unprotected sex, orgasm denial, slight!infidelity, fantasy!au, fem!reader, dragon prince!bakugou.

⭑ words — 2.8K.

⭑ notes — happy valentine’s day my sweets!! here’s a precious little fic for you, a commission from the darling @peonies-and-teacakes and beta read by @yuki-no-akumu !! i hope you guys enjoy and remember that ily <3 mwah mwah !! - m.list ✩

“s-sir…i am so sorry.”

don’t.

“t-there’s been some kind of mistake!”

don’t you say it.

“unfortunately the room at our inn you’d requested for tonight has been double booked…”

don’t you dare say it.

“we can only offer you the alternative which is a single bed, again sir, i-i’m so sorry.”

it’s not the clerk’s fault, it’s a simple mistake that anyone could make at an inn located in one of the busiest travelling towns in all of Aethopia— but it shouldn’t have happened to katsuki bakugou. it’s the worst thing that could have ever happened to katsuki bakugou. “you gotta be fuckin’ kiddin’ me,” the dragon prince snarls, almost resembling the mystical creature acting as his tribe’s crest— teeth white, sharp and menacingly on display. “all this fuckin’ coin spent on a useless, shitty inn ‘nd you can’t even book the right room?”

the clerk shrinks back, visibly shaken as they hand over a set of room keys to the blonde. “s-so sorry! s-sir!” they add timidly, flinching as they clatter into bakugou’s palm and he snatches the metal away from them.

“sorry ain’t gonna cut it, what a waste of my coin! i ain’t ever comin’ back to this shithole.” he continues to snap, and with a swish of his red woven cape, bakugou’s gone— storming away and outside of the reception, filled with enough rage to fan the flames of a dragon’s fire. you’re waiting for him with his horse, tending to it as he steps into the cool outside. the forest trees sway with the prince’s arrival but don’t do anything to distract you from running your fingers to the snow-white coloured steed.

you’re beautiful and that angers katsuki. you’re the prettiest thing he’s ever seen in all of the moons he’s existed— you shine under the light of the silver crescent, as if glitter is speckled all over your skin or you’re covered in a layer of diamonds.

your smile as his horse chuffs and nudges you with its head is precious, more valuable than any gem found in this world’s greatest mines. your dress isn’t made out of the finest materials, but it fits perfectly around your sweet dips and curves— it’s pretty. you’re pretty. there’s something about you that makes a mess of katsuki’s pulse, that steals his breath away and he hates you for it.

you’re supposed to be an ordinary girl, you’re supposed to be just a pile of coin to him— a reward for returning you, prince touya of Ignis’ runaway bride. there was a hefty bounty hanging over your head for your safe return to his royal highness’ side, for you were to be the tool that helped to clean up prince touya’s act and get him prepared for kingship. again, you weren’t meant to be anything more to katsuki, in fact, if he had to he would force himself to despise you— you make him miserable, he has to remind himself that you’re just a prize. nothing more, nothing less.

despite the blonde’s plan to have you back in the hands of the todoroki family— he’s had his doubts. rumour has it that touya todoroki, better known to lesser folk as dabi, is an evil brute. one with little regard to the women he’s kept or invited up to his royal chambers. other whispers on the street have mentioned that you were a spoiled little village girl from within their kingdom, refusing the life the todoroki’s were to offer you.

that was another reason for bakugou to hate you— you were a brat that ran away because touya wouldn’t feed you with a silver spoon, because he was the first man in your existence to be unkind and you couldn’t find it in yourself to put up with it despite being set for the rest of your life.

katsuki bakugou of the dragon tribe had found you just outside of his territory— half dead, your clothes torn and a second away from being hunted by the mythical monsters that prowled them. you resented him, for what he did next. you had the audacity to be mad at the dragon prince for saving your life and nursing you back to health. you blame him for the miserable outcomes of your life and for having his heart set on returning you back to touya todoroki, blaming him for it all.

at the time, the pair of you had argued. bakugou had called you a stupids and naive little girl— who wouldn’t want to be married to a future king? you wouldn’t have a single thing to worry about if you did, your every need would be taken care of without you even asking. you wouldn’t have to kill for your next meal, worry about when or where you could sleep next, spend every day fighting for survival. clearly you both had different views on the world, and what should have been gratefulness turned into hatred.

bakugou had tied your wrists, dragged you kicking and screaming back on the route straight to the todoroki castle— reuniting you with your Prince Charming. so far, you’d made this journey hell, almost cost him fights and got him in trouble with clients or employers. you were embarrassing.

and in your eyes? katsuki was your fairytale villain. he was a selfish, ugly bastard who wouldn’t let you steal your freedom, all for some money. you hated bakugou with every fibre of your being and every ounce of your heart and he knew. he knew this, but that didn’t make it any easier to handle when you look at him like his every step scorches the earth.

scowl at him like you do now.

like he was the most awful man in the world. like he was touya. who he had heard from stories didn’t handle women in the best of ways.

“what, ya still mad at me, princess?” bakugou asks as he approaches you, the twigs snapping under his boots grabbing your attention.

before arriving at the inn, the dragon wielder had told you that you were a useless airhead— one that couldn’t survive on her own and needed a man to save her. you’d slapped him hard without hesitation and neither of you’d spoken until now. “of course i am, don’t ask stupid questions, you barbarian,” you spit harshly, turning back to the horse at hand. “did you get the room? i’m tired and sick of looking at your face.”

he almost flinches back to avoid being hit by your venomous words but instead retaliates. “i did ‘n yer stuck with me, sweetheart, there’s only one bed.”

“you’re kidding, right?” your eye twitches as you spin on your heel to face katsuki once more and the blonde braces himself for an onslaught of your slander. “oh! bakugou. you’re such an incompetent fool. you can’t even book an inn on your own, so you need a woman to do that for you?” you throw his words from earlier back into his face like an acid burn that’s been waiting underneath your tongue.

“i didn’t wanna be stuck with your ass anyways! quit complainin’!”

“well, if you insist on not being stuck with me, perhaps releasing me before we reach the todoroki’s is a good idea—“

“— fat chance, princess.” bakugou scoffs back. “not with the bounty over your head. puttin’ up with your shitty attitude will be fuckin’ worth dealin’ with until you’re back with ‘em.”

he doesn’t give you a chance to retort, heading back into the inn whether you follow him or not.

katsuki is glad that you don’t, at least not straight away— wanting to calm down the ache you’ve inflicted upon his hatred-blackened heart.

though he might hate you, katsuki can always tell when you’re crying.

around the same time every night and throughout your travels, your shoulders shake as sobs rack your body while you think he’s fast asleep. of course, the dragon prince feels bad— he’s practically handing you off to the devil in exchange for a lump of cash. you’ve been down on your luck and the blonde feels partially responsible for that.

rolling over to face you, bakugou watches with a deep frown as you keep your eyes on the wall opposite you— not daring to acknowledge him. “‘m sorry… about what i said,” he feels guilty but only just, unsure of his next words. “‘bout this touya thing… and all the men that have hurt you. i’m—” he takes a breath. “sorry about everything. i only treat you that way ‘cause i don’t want ya to end up lost like me…” he doesn’t want you to fall for him, to stay with him.

silence echoes between you both but katsuki can tell that you’ve calmed down from the way your body stops shaking and your hiccups quieten down. “you care about me, bakugou?” rolling over, the blonde finds himself lost in the sparkle of your galaxy eyes yet again— hating you for it, fighting down his love for you.

you’re close, way too close and everything beneath the sheets is hot. “shut up, princess.” bakugou whispers, not realising that the warmth of his breath is coasting over your lips wetly. before either of you know it, you’re kissing— mouths slotting against one another, tongues rolling over each other sloppily as you swap spit and pour undisclosed feelings into one another. his hands slip under your flimsy excuse for a night-gown, trailing up the good meat of your thighs, the soft curves of your waist and hips. you have him in shambles, with the way you gasp quietly at his thumbs swiping at the swell of your breasts— just brushing over your pebbling nipples. you coo and cry and he takes more from you, tugging on your lower lip with shining rows of pearly whites and licking into your mouth to swallow your whistle-tone moans.

“quiet, princess,” bakugou’s mouth is hot, blisteringly slow— his tongue leaving trails of clear, thick saliva along the planes of your skin. “gotta be quiet, baby, can’t wake anyone up, yeah?” the sharp edges of his teeth just graze your salt-licked flesh, barely nipping it. katsuki knows better, he can’t leave marks. he can’t return damaged goods to the soon-to-be king. to the touya todoroki. “so good, such a good girl.”

“o-oh! k-katsuki!” you stutter out, eyes rolling to the back of your skull and locking away the stars as the dragon prince’s hand fumbles between your hot and heavy bodies. he finds your clit, swollen and sticky— pulsating beneath rough fingertips. “p-please, i need you. please, katsuki. n-need–!” you sing your praises to the high heaves, the letters of his name rubbed into your pretty pussy as he plays with it between your slick, doughy thighs.

a single finger slips past your fluttering entrance, but he doesn’t dare let up on your pleasure nub— circling it diligently. “shut up, yeah?” the man slurs into your neck, spreading your pussy lips apart to finger you deeper, faster— losing his sanity listening to the sound of you squelch. “i hate you…r’member that. h-hate you— fuck…”

“hate you, s’much. o-oh, right there!” your own set of fingers curl in sandy blonde locks tightly pulling him back up to your face for a kiss. but his eyes, your eyes, they both speak forbidden and unspoken love. your other hand grasps at his throbbing cock, arousal spilling over your knuckles and straight from the tip. his chest rumbles in pleasure, hips rutting into your closed fist languidly before he swoops down to lure you into the forest of temptation, the haze of another uncoordinated, messy kiss.

you mewl into one another’s open mouths, swollen and cherry lips meshing together— this? whatever you’re doing together, a pile of sweaty limbs moving in sync with one another…it’s everything either of you have ever wanted. playing pretend, hating one another face to face and loving one another in secret. katsuki curls his fingers, pressing down on your g-spot and you run your thumb through the seedy slit of his cockhead…eager to please one another. to love one another.

“put it in, katsuki.” gasping but demanding, you call to him— hungry for more, to have his everything. he wants to, god he wants to. but what if he hurts you? what if you fall apart like fragile glass? what if touya—? you grab at the blonde’s chin, guiding his gaze up to yours and his thick girth to your clenching, unfilled hole. “just for tonight, one night. show me how you truly feel about me katsuki…make love to me.”

you’re giving him a chance, giving him this one last night to deflower the prettiest, most beautiful thing katsuki bakugou has ever held in his bare, monstrous hands. wrapping your legs around the slenderness of his waist, you lock your ankles at the small of his back and squeeze to draw him closer. his milky shaft pushes through your arousal soaked folds, clear strings of it clinging to every vein that decorates the length of him.

both of you shudder once he’s bottomed out inside the warmth of your velvety, silken walls. he’s as deep as he can go, stretching you over him with slow rolls of his hips and his balls heavy with cum, seated at the curve of your ass. “f-fuck, you’re tight, princess,” katsuki whines, wrapping his arms around your head to pin you to the bed beneath him. he fills you to the brim, brings tears to your eyes as he splits you apart and pieces you back together with every single thrust. your g-spot is a victim to endless ectasy given to you by his mushroomed tip as it rams against you, desperately.

rolling your hips up to match his pace, you swallow the saliva pooling on the palette of your tongue— skin buzzing with lust while you mark up the blonde’s back. you leave tiger-claw patterns across his tanned back, red and raw before mussing up his hair pulling him closer until either of you have room to breathe. his breath is ragged against the shell of your ear, thrusts rampant each time he plunges into your souse, salacious pussy.

katsuki drowns himself in you, and like an alcoholic reaching for another drink— he’s addicted. he groans pathetically when you bite him, kiss him and spit into his mouth until he’s babbling and brainless. you bite his shoulder to keep quiet but the bed creaks loudly enough to cover your harmonised moans and the sound of skin slapping on skin harshly.

“i love you,” you breathe weakly, body wracked with shakes when bakugou slips out of your cunt from how fast he's pounding you into the sheets, tied to you only by strings of slick.

he says it back, instantaneously while forcing himself back into your addictive heat, desperate to get you both to your highs. “i love you.” next he finds your clit again, using three fingers to tap at it so that you tremble cutely beneath him. “hold it, princess. hold your orgasm. p-promise it’ll feel good, kay?” the dragon prince pulls back only just, dragging his seedy tip along your insides and you whine at the loss of being so full. “promise me that when he’s fucking you, when touya makes you his bride a-and weds you, his pretty virgin bride…that you’ll think of me ‘n me alone.”

“i-i promise,” you murmur, playing with the baby hairs on the base of katsuki’s neck, looking up at him lovingly as you clench down on him at his claim— dripping sweet nectar down his balls.

only then does katsuki put his entire weight on you, jutting into you all at once, nearly breaking the bed as it hits the wall behind you over and over. his cock swells inside of you, close to bursting and cumming inside of you. with one, two, three more calculated thrusts you’re thrown over the edge— the dopamine high of your orgasm crashing over your brain while you squirt clear streams over his lower tummy and cock.

he’s right behind you, following the stream of your sweet essence that nearly forces him out of you. thick, hot ropes of cum paint your insides belonging to the man that you love, filling you up to the brim. katsuki collapses on top of you with one last kiss, your foreheads pressed together and the crude mix of your arousal leaking from your tiny hole, onto your shared sheets.

“i don’t…i don’t hate you,” you stutter once both of your breathing has evened out, teary eyed because you can’t say that you love him again. it’ll make it too real, neither of you can have that if you’re promised to touya and bakugou has promised to take you back to the ruthless future king.

“niether do i,” katsuki breathes back, wiping your eyes with the pad of his thumb, using a delicate touch.

he couldn’t help it, loving you but at least he got to…just for tonight.

So uh, as I mentioned in this post, I'm working a fantasy story. It's the first time I'm attempting a story that has a magic system, multiple societies, cultures, main characters, and religions. A lot of it is sort of coming to me as I write but I feel like I'm a little in over my head with how much world-building and character building I need to do. Does anyone have any tips on this?

I'll also give a synopsis on what my story is about.

Societies: I have four main characters, each from a different society. Each one is based on an element: earth, wind, water, and fire. The people in each society have different elemental abilities. Earth-shifters can shift into different deer species and when they aren't in deer-form, they can create and manipulate plants, soil, etc. They live in a large forest. Wind-shifters shift into different birds of prey and can manipulate wind. They live in the mountains. Water-shifters shift into different ocean life like sharks, string rays, octopus etc. Right now, I have them still have parts of their human form when they shift but I might change that. They live in an underwater society and can control water. Fire-shifters shift into dragons and live in a network of mountain caves. They pretty much keep to themselves.

Characters: My four main characters are currently named Silva, Aquila, Natare, and Ignis. Silva is an earth-shifter who's quiet and kind. Natare (water-shifter) is very bubbly and sweet. Ignis (fire-shifter) tease's a lot but knows when to be serious. He's also very loyal and protective. Aquila (wind-shifter) has a bit of a temper and is quite stern. These four characters come together and become friends. They realize the flaws in their respective societies and help each other get revenge on those who have hurt them. I wanted a story focused on friendship with elemental magic and shape-shifting.

Like I mentioned before, I'm still figuring out how to form the characters' backgrounds, motivations, and developing the societies. I can make a post describing these societies and characters in more detail and what I'm specifically struggling with, if someone's interested in that ☺️

@void-botanist I'm making a whole new post on my main so I don't hijack your writeblr but re: salmon leap it's perfectly okay that there's no salmon in it because Cú Chulainn is in Puzzle and Dragons, one of my favorite video games ever, and now I get to infodump about it. For context PAD is a gacha game (sorry) where you match orbs on the board to attack monsters and.. that's the entire game they only just added story dungeons like a couple years ago but I like it a lot. It's like if bejeweled had bigger numbers and let you move the jewels anywhere you wanted. And the music and weapon designs are really cool.

(disclaimer: I don't play PAD consistently anymore and I'm kinda behind on the meta, and I've never used Cú Chulainn on a team, so take all of this with a grain of salt)

So this is card #1209, Wolf Hero, Ignis Cú Chulainn. 1209 sounds like a lot but this game has been around since like.. 2012, and idk when this card dropped but it's likely pretty close to ten years.

(source)

There are a lot of different evos but I'm just going with this one for now. I doubt it's historically accurate, this game just pulls deities from a lot of different mythologies and does whatever the hell it wants with them. But it does look cool!

It's a wood/fire attribute, which means it deals wood (PAD version of grass type in Pokémon) and fire damage. Since fire is its second attribute it usually doesn't deal as much fire damage.

So these are its current awoken skills. Those are basically like passive skills that deal extra damage, change how the board looks, etc. for example the one with the 7 and the red arrow makes it so that if you get 7 combos or more, that card gets a damage boost. The more of those 7c skills a card has, the more that effect is multiplied. So having 3 of them on one card is pretty cool. I don't think 1209 is the strongest card at all but it's gotten a lotttt of buffs since it first dropped; the entire game is subject to a lot of power creep so the devs are constantly adapting old cards to fit the new meta.

The blue squares are a different type of awoken skill called a latent awakening, and if I explained every detail I'd be here all day but basically they increase how much damage 1209 does against certain types of monsters. It doesn't have all of those latents at once but I could pick a few to give to it if I wanted.

So now I'd like to take a look at a different Cú Chulainn Evo that I have actually used, #3919, Gáe Bulg. The huge jump in numbers is because this card was added like years after 1209.

(source)

Tbh I don't remember which team I used this card on, it's been years, but I can tell you how to use it. This is a special type of evo called an assist (or inherit). Basically that means that you don't put the card on a team as its own unit. Instead you attach it to a different card, and the main card "inherits" this card's awoken skills, its active skill (which is basically when you press a button and then something cool happens like a stat boost or changing the attributes of the orbs of the board), and a fraction of its stats IF the inherit and the main card share an attribute. 3919 is just a wood attribute, so based on that alone it'd be best on a wood attribute card if you want that stat boost. But you can also look at the awoken and active skills to make sure:

Active skill: Unlock all orbs; Change Heal, Jammer, Poison, Mortal Poison, and Bomb orbs to Wood orbs

(source)

To be clear, this set of awoken skills is kinda weak by 2024 meta standards if you're trying to beat mid-level to endgame dungeons and there are plenty of better cards you can use. 3919 hasn't been hit by the power creep beam. But let's pretend that it's 2016-ish and this is a really powerful card still lol. So starting with the awoken skills, the sword and shield one just tells you that all the following skills can be used by the main card as well. There are 2 enhanced wood orb awokens. Each orb deals a set amount of damage on its own, but when it's enhanced that damage is multiplied by a small amount. The one with the fire attribute symbol on the shield makes that fire attribute types against you deal slightly less damage. And the sword just boosts that card's overall attack a little bit. Finally the active creates more wood orbs, which goes well with the orb enhance awokens. Basically, this is the kind of card you'd want on a team that mostly deals wood attribute damage.

I don't really have a conclusion for this, I could spend an hour talking about these cards alone because this game is so dense lol. But yeah, that's the kinda info you'd take into account if you were building a team. I left a lot of details out but if people ask I'm always happy to explain. Tentatively pinging @vacantgodling and @wayfarer-orca , because y'all both like this game iirc and would maybe enjoy seeing it on the dash

#puzzle and dragons #ken's shit #mutuals #i wish *i* saw it more on the dash but the fandom here is non-existent

Never Have I Ever written a dance scene

Oh Have I Ever. Hahahaha I love this ask, thank you.

The longest, most ornate, completely self-indulgent dance scene I've ever written was in Tripartite (FFXV). That entire thing is self-indulgence in a can, but that scene particularly so. It's Ignis watching Ravus and Aranea dance, and realizing he's hot for them both. 💕

I also wrote a tender little scene in my first ever longfic, where Aranea shows Ignis a dance step he doesn't know. They kiss, and I have art of it. (The Dragon's Dagger) (The Art)

I've also written:

Ignyx dancing in the rain

Crownyx in a Dancer AU

Nyx hating having to go to a fancy party until he realizes Ignis is there

Claude and Lorenz dancing together secretly at a masquerade, and then having sexytimes on a balcony

Claude comforting Petra after an irritating ball

Sylvain and Raphael dancing together and confessing to some pretty and tender feelings

Android stripper Lorenz entertaining Claude in a little club in the Gamma Sector

There's more but that's a good sampling! I love when characters dance together--I love fancy outfits and music and movement and little touches. It's delicious and wonderful and I'm so glad you asked!

#hope talks #dancing

Smok (Stiliodraco ignis)

Size: 60 feet long

Habitat: mountains, tundras, forests, volcanoes

Coloration: red, brown, green, gold, black

Diet: mammoths, behemoths, pretty much megafauna in general

Magical Abilities: fire breath, flight

After those weird and wacky wyrms and wyverns, it’s about time we move onto the most recognizable archetype of dragon, the four legged flying firebreathers, the most basic of bitches, the many children of Smaug, the… well, they don’t actually have a name. See, this archetype is so omnipresent that it’s seen as the definition of dragon, despite the existence of so many other interesting types of dragon. It’s not like I hate seeing them or anything, but can we get some wyrms in media? Please?

Anyway, the specific name “Smok” is from Polish folklore, and most would recognize it from Smok Wawelski. I can’t think of a better name for this archetype, so it’s what I’m using. This one’s more based on modern fantasy dragons than medieval dragons, as the first dragon that resembles the modern idea of a dragon was drawn in 1260. Actually, I was originally gonna have the smok be an ice dragon and the fire dragon named “Urolok” from Tolkien’s elven language, but when the nidhogg became the ice dragon, I used Smok for this one, which will also probably piss Tolkien’s lawyers off less.

Something I wanted to do with the design is make them look weirder than the DnD red dragon design clones, but not extremely bizarre. And I think I managed that! I based them somewhat off of the thorny devil, which I’m kinda surprised I haven’t seen a dragon that resembles one. Their spiked wings are very much based off of several dragons in Monster Hunter. I very much imagine these fellows to be big megafauna hunters, and also probably nature’s defense against the forest-eating behemoths (which aren’t dragons in this setting, so they won’t be in this field guide, sorry). They actually wouldn’t care for humans, not just because of a moral opposition to eating creatures that can talk, but because humans are just so small that they don’t have enough nutritional value for them to be worth hunting down.

OH BOY NOW WE CAN REALLY GET INTO MY CURRENT HYPERFIXATION

So a couple weeks ago I made a group of ocs I call the Draconic Mercenaries. They're a group of idiots soulbounded to dragons who tend to be polar opposites from their riders. I am obsessed with these guys

In order of posting we have: Venrir, Keara, Aegis, and Cassian.

Venrir is the man behind the name after he formed the Draconic Mercenaries with his sister Keara. The rest is history. Then of course we have the dragons—

Asmodeus, Atlas, Nautica, and Ignis. Try and guess who belongs to which rider

These ocs have me in a chokehold as what started as a small project exploded as I brought more friends into the group. Now it's all we ever think about. Which reminds me that an honorable mention are these guys:

This is Wren and Helios. They do not belong to me but I had the pleasure of designing them for my buddy who I'm pretty sure has a Tumblr but I don't know what it is 😭

How far is your OC willing to go to get what they want? + Would your OC ostensibly be able to get away with murder?

For all the ROs + my boy Callum

How far would they go?

Evie- lmao probably pretty far with the exception of wanton murdering. Maybe. Okay, only the evil people who deserve it. Evil people beware because morals are for mortals.

Ignis: Pretty damn far. He's done some things he isn't proud of but if necessary he would do it again, but he still couldn't bring himself to kill someone who he doesn't think deserves it.

Vex: Depends on how bad they want it. Probably best to stay out of the way, regardless lol

Azzy: Pre-character growth he'd probably just roll over and give up. Post-character growth... you'll have to wait and see 🙃

Mal- Again, with the exception of murdering innocent people, I recommend staying out of her way.

Viik- Literally the most chill and normal about it. He would never want to do something he would regret just to have his way.

Callum- ☺️🔥🗡️⚔️💣💥 💕violence is the answer besties! 💕

Murder???

Evie - would get away with it just because nobody would believe it if you said a demon popped up and nerfed someone.

Ignis- 🙂 And if he already has?

Vex- Ooh, they do have a wonderful recipe for an untraceable poison lying around somewhere.

Azzy - Yes, and I won't elaborate why. 🙃

Mal - I mean, I doubt it, but would anyone be brave enough to arrest a woman who can turn into a dragon?

Viik - Probably not, but he may get away with it for at least a little while.

Callum - Of course! He's just a sneaky little guy! 💕

@stella-ignis-rosea

"Yer not bein' fuckin' weird? Really? D'ya think I was born yesterday?"

Gajeel would pick Kohaku up by his scruff in two fingers before placing the kitsune onto his shoulder. He knew the kid was worried about him, why wouldn't he be? After all, the Dragon had been recovering from some pretty severe wounds over the past month and a half. He was scarred now, but that wasn't a big deal to him he had plenty of other scars adorning his tanned flesh after all. What was a couple more?

Ruby eyes would focus forward before a fanged grin would cross his face, the scars on his cheek were rather faint, mostly unnoticeable unless you were looking closely.

"Ko, I'm a tough fucker, I'm fine. I'm alive, ain't I? I intend ta stay that fuckin' way too."

He'd hum, clicking his tongue briefly before pursing his lips as he thought about what they could do. He could always take Ko to the fair in Magnolia. He had a feeling the teen would like that.

"Wanna go ta th' fair? From what I heard yer brother is in th' dunkin' pool and I wanna see him get fuckin' soaked."

Astrid vs the Arcane Tower

Approaching the Arcane Tower

Astrid: Oooh, pretty. Except ... what are those?

Turrets: *go BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZT*

Astrid: Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow...

Gale: Astrid, back up! IGNIS!

Turrets: *are immune to fire, continue to go BZZZZZZZT on Gale now*

Gale: Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow...

Astrid: Okay ... let me think...

Astarion: How about we just give up this whole endeavour and do something a little less deadly?

Shadowheart: We. Are. In. The. Underdark. There is no 'a little less deadly' here.

Astrid: Okay, everyone? How fast can you run?

Gale: Not that fast. We'll never get to the tower without those things destroying us.

Astrid: Not all in one go, no. But look. *points at various bits of wall* There's cover. We rush to those bits, take a breath, run for the next bit. I'll take the lead; I got this nifty go-faster ring. Oh! Hey! Wait! Potions of Speed! You guys will need those! Here!

Gale: You just ... lug all that around. Because of course you do.

Astrid: I am made of useful!

At the doors to the tower

Astrid: Aww. I was hoping that we could ignite these braziers with the turret bzzzt and maybe that'd stop it. Oh well, we're in cover now. Astarion?

Astarion: There had better be something incredibly valuable in there. *picks lock on door*

Yet More Turrets: *go BZZZZZT*

Astarion: OW OW OW OW OW OW OW!

Astrid: Okay ... so ... again with the running. How're we feeling potion-wise?

Gale: Tapped out. I don't suppose.

Astrid: I may be made of useful, Gale, but I also have the carrying capacity of a faerie dragon. I guess we'll just have to dash for that ... elevator, there. We can use the balconies as cover when we need to breathe.

Shadowheart: Are we sure that elevator works?

Astrid: The turrets do, so why wouldn't it?

A short while later...

Elevator: *does not work*

Astrid: Aw, nuts.

Gale: I imagine there's an arcane generator of some kind in the basement. We just have to get there. Did anyone see stairs?

Astrid: No, but I saw bracket fungus and I'm pretty sure those won't disappear on us. More running?

Astarion: *sigh* At least we did find useful things...

Later, in the basement

Shadowheart: You're ... throwing bits of plantlife into the generator.

Astrid: And some parts. Let's see... Aha!

Generator: *sparks to life*

Braziers: *ignite*

Turrets: *stand down*

Shadowheart; Astarion: *stare at Gale*

Gale: ...Don't look at me. I don't know how she managed to fix an arcane generator. And honestly, I'm not sure I'd tell you if I did.

Astrid: Anyway ... so where would the real shinies be, Gale?

Gale: Top floor, but there might still be defenses up there if there's anything really good.

One short elevator ride later

Animated Armour Automatons: *all look at them funny*

Gale: Ah. Something incredibly good, then.

Astarion: I suppose we'd better get ready for a fight then. I suppose we couldn't have had something I could actually feed on...

Shadowheart: Well, Astrid has that Heat Metal-- wait. Astrid what are you doing?!?

Astrid: *walks up to automaton* *recites poem*

Automatons: *nod and go about their business, leaving the party alone*

Gale; Shadowheart; Astarion: ........................

Astarion: I have seen her talk her way around goblins, bugbears, ogres, squirrels, and giant spiders ... but I think I draw the line at animated armour.

Astrid: It's actually simpler with constructs. You just have to figure out what their protocols are likely to be. So ... I told them we belong here. Help yourselves?

Gale: *helpless laughter*

Quite some while later, now that the detour is over

Astarion: Should we be worried about more minotaurs?

Astrid: We should never be worried about anything. We are epic.

Two Minotaurs: *chaaaaaaaaarge*

Astrid: *pulls out lute*

Gale: *grins* Oh, here we go...

Astrid: *to the tune of Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)* "You're looking for a victim / And any will suffice / But the one you picked today / Has command of fire and ice / You're cruising through the tunnels / See a wizard as you pass / But if you blink twice / He's gonna roast your burly ass!"

Gale: ...I have a theme song. I think I like it. IGNIS!

Shadowheart: ......Now I kind of want one.

Astarion: Well, I got one first.

Gale; Shadowheart: Oh, shut up.

Astrid: "And all the clerics say / You're pretty fly - FOR A DEAD GUY!"

Shadowheart: That does not count.

Stabnation: *ensues*

5 and 18 for ivy, 3 and 10 for ignis and 11 and 16 for onyx? :D

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

how does your oc feel about their new outfit? do they like it? do they feel uncomfortable in it?

Ivy: She doesn’t hate it necessarily. She’s always wanted a pretty dress. However, it doesn't mean that she's not messing with it the whole time. Come on, she's not doing this to impress anyone, why couldn't she get a cape with this at least?! Oh. Oh, wait. She stops fiddling with her dress immediately after meeting Rollo and seeing his assistant.

how does your oc feel after everything that happened? do they cry? are they mad at rollo? do they want to go home as soon as they can or they want to stop this madness even if it takes some time?

Ivy: She just wants to go to sleep, to be honest. Ivy is not the type of person to want to process her emotions after something big. She wants to go home and work. She buries her feelings in her work and interacting with other people. In her mind, she's thinking, "Why should I try to stop this madness when he's the one that started all of this?" She isn't mad at him but she will be if she's forced to clean up his mess. Ivy doesn't believe in sitting down to analyze one's emotions and sort through them, she thinks that it's a waste of time when she could be doing literally anything else. (Probably texts Vil and says, "LMAOOOOOOOOO GUESS WHO ALMOST GOT KILLED so if I die, whatever you do, find me a husband and tell him I loved him!!!!")

what does your oc think about rollo? what was their first thought when they saw him? do they trust him?

Ignis: The first thing he thinks is, “What did Iris tell me when she was telling me goodbye?” And the thing she said was not to trust the new people (well, she said it with a lot of curse words in between). Therefore, he does not trust him. He looks at his bangs and he’s horrified, he genuinely wants to ask who cut them. He thinks Rollo needs some sleep or at least something to lighten up.

what are they most excited about? is it the festival, the food, new places to explore, meeting new people, maybe they can't wait to dance with a particular character?

Ignis: He cooks. He will eat. And he gets to spend time with Colette! They never spend time together, now that he thinks about it, so this is a great opportunity for both of them to hang out. He doesn't really dance with anyone, to be honest, because Medi's not there and he's going >:(, and in his mind, he's literally saying, "I should've dragged her here." But he does dance with Colette (and tells Titus on the phone: "BRO, THIS IS STRICTLY PLATONIC, I SWEAR ON MY COLLECTION OF ROCKS WITH GOOGLY EYES--" "Ignis, it is past 9 pm. I am asleep. Just make sure she doesn't run off, she tends to do that a lot."

do they actually want to learn more about the city of flowers or they just think of this as a fun school trip? are they serious about it or they just want to chill?

Onyx: He’s chilling! Of course, there is no chill with NRC but he’s doing his best. Also, he gets to see Val again so that’s always fun. He literally has a database in his head that could tell him everything he wants to know about the city of flowers but he ignores it deliberately. The only thing he does do is go around to taste the bread. The bread better make him want more or he'll think that this trip is a waste of time. Bring the beat in? Nah, more like bring the bread in.

do they try to help everyone else or they go "every man for himself" and care about their own well-being the most?

Onyx: Ah well, call him selfish but he’s only helping out specific people because fire terrifies him. It reminds him of too many bad memories but part of him is yelling to help out, especially since Valkyrie is the most at risk. He still remembers what Val did for him and he feels as though he owes part of his life to her. Who would he be if he didn't help her when she's literally on the verge of dying? He doesn't worry about anyone else, they can all save themselves but this is the first time he's since Val in a long time and she's going to die? He will save her, although he'll be terrified the whole time.

#🔮.oc talks !#the poisonous anarchist: ivy #the pretty dragon: ignis #the altered cyborg: onyx #someone needs to tell ivy she cannot run away from her emotions forever #also onyx's part is kind of a hint in his backstory #ignis is panicking bc he thinks titus will think something #meanwhile titus is going 'dude you're interrupting my uno game with gale and medi'#everyone's chilling until rollo decides to play blow by kesha #ivy: haha can i combust NOW seth ???

Do you know what that page of De Historia et Veritatis Unicornis by Michael Green translates as?

I sure do! The whole concept of Unicornis, much like Inventorum Natura, is that it’s a long lost manuscript presented and translated. In this case, one written by a secretive order of monks that study unicorns. So the images show the Latin manuscript, and the text is the translation.

As a reminder, this is the picture in question. The whole book is like that, it’s quite lovely.

And the translation of the text as provided by the book. Note that I’m no Latinist, but I’m pretty sure ignis et aqua should be “fire and water” instead of “fire and darkness”.

THE BOOK OF NEMESIS

In the long, bright years of the First Age, Man and Unicorn dwelt together, and both races grew in stature of body and mind. But other beings had been spawned in darkness, and in darkness grew strong.

THE SPAWNING OF THE DRAGONS

On that very day when the Unicorn drew forth from barren rock a gushing spring of life, the seeds of doom were sown as well. For even as those shining waters spread their fertile moisture, they poured into unlighted fissures and trickled down to secret, burning caverns that wound among the mountains' roots.

There, in those abysmal chambers, the sacred waters' life-bestowing charge was first expended in raising up a living thing. And thus in fire and in darkness was the Dragon born. Her nature bears everlasting testimony to that uneasy birth, and ever after, no other creature has possessed the same measure of strength and cunning.

Now the first dragon was Yaldabaoth (though she is called Tliamat as well, and many other names besides)...

(There’s more but it’s on the next page of the manuscript).

@stella-ignis-rosea asked:

'what's the vibe? vibe check.'

Kohaku pokes Natsu’s nose with his finger

Didn't Kohaku know better than to stick fingers in the face of a dragon slayer? Apparently NOT. Natsu would go cross eyed for a moment before a small growl erupted from the fire dragon slayer. Someone really should teach the teen not to stick his fingers into other people's faces.

As would be made pretty apparent by a CHOMP. Not a particularly hard one but enough of a chomp that the younger male would HOPEFULLY know not to stick his fingers near Natsu's face again.

"Next time won't be a warning bite."

Gonna talk about my main guild too... I gotta...

Yes, it's going to be long, the effects this game has had on me... LISTEN...

Anyway... I'll try to not say anything I'll regret since... I am writing about these characters.

1. Alope

Did you know I am Alope's BIGGEST HATER?? Jk I love her sm, it's just that since she's a gladiator she's prone to missing a lot when I need HER

But she also comes in clutch the most. Nine smashes when she has TWO target goggles on + pop flares + she actually smashes 9 TIMES??? Amazing!! LET ME TELL YOU, THE TIMES SHE LANDS CONFUSION??? I never doubted you once girl!! (I doubted her the whole time.)

During a fight I used to have a ridiculously hard time on with each new guild, she landed confusion twice in a row and made the poor thing unable to move AT ALL. She is *chef's kiss*

I yell at her a lot bc during all the dragon fights, she is stunned over and over to the point where she can't hit much, but I realized that no other offense class would be able to take that many hits...

She used to be the highest leveled before post game, but slipped up in some unfortunate times (mostly right before the enemies would die) but she is her own unit and I love her for that.

2. Ignis

I picked his portrait bc my old guilds were primarily femme little kids. Let's spice it up! Old man!!

I usually tried to avoid hoplites and would sub a princess as one ( a MISTAKE). The game is just so much easier with him. Tho his subclass is a little weird, it made it easy for exploration.

He's a Hoplite. He never does anything wrong anything bad that happens is MY FAULT NOT HIS!! (Or its everyone else's)

I've almost maxed out his parry skills and hes been doing so well!

Whenever he got koed I felt bad, it's always last minute so he got robbed of EXP a lot. I also tried to replace him due to his subclass, but he came out to be the better hoplite in the end.

Only bad thing I can think about (besides his subclass which isnt really THAT bad) is how I maxed out anti fire and volt before anti ice which made the beginning of the post game awful since almost every postgame boss has an aoe ice skill.

3. Tank

The power crawl this man had... he was okay damage at first. I think now if he's set up correctly he can do several thousand damage a turn.

He ALWAYS COMES IN CLUTCH !! ESPECIALLY AGAINST THE DRAKE'S ICE WALL SKILL!!

He's never done ANYTHING WRONG. (Actually when he's confused he has a habit of killing Enid??? That's pretty wrong. But idk maybe Enid deserves it. Oh yeah... and his alcoholism... that's bad too SJSKSK)

Tank is notoriously one of the last ones standing when my guild gets f-ed over. Which put him over Hana and Alope for highest leveled. (He survived a few tough fights they didn't.) But they're close behind him!

I also picked his portrait in retaliation to my girls only phase. My first Arbalist, whom I never used, was named "Tanaku". I named Tank after her.

4. Enid

Fun fact, Enid was in older versions of Ragnarok but was a different gender and or character each time. So gender fluid!!

Enid does their job, unless they don't...

Enid has a thing that when they get bound or have an ailment they'll be stuck that was for 5 million years which has got to be the most annoying thing... (other than my fingers slipping and picking the wrong skills) but I just prioritize defending him more.

I have him equipped with the speed dagger bc Enid HAS to move first. The times I've forgotten that thing and got wiped is... oddly high.

She's also with Tank for the last one standing. (Best friends till the end) an example of this was the Anemone fight where the both of them had to frantically bring Hana back to deal damage. (I'm not writing that fight so it's not a spoiler.)

THEYRE SO GOOFY.

More recently, when Alope and Hana get koed, Enid, Tank, and Ignis have a party set up that can kill a super boss with just the three of them.

5. Hana

(Her stats are in the previous post, I ran out room so pretend they are here!!)

The OG. She remains the offense ever, even with Tank. Enemies remember her patterns just to stop HER. And when they slip up and focus on hindering another member she obliterates them. (Probably full of rage too.)

She's just a real champ and pulls through so often it's normal. Though... recently her Berserker vow puts her in danger.

She always has the last hit, especially against bosses. She recovers from ailments the fastest too... (Her, Ignis, and Tank.)

She also has two fighting styles, which is nice bc the other two fighters spam the same move over and over. And the Elemental scrolls too... she is just so fun to play as.

...

Anyway, hands down my fav guild to play as. EO3's enemies are just so quirky by reading my inputs I come back to it more than the other games.

I might buy EO2 or the original bc... I don't know the untolds felt weird and I didn't get as attached to my guilds as I did for EO3 and EO4.

But yeah. I kinda... don't know what to do with myself now. I cleared the game I hadn't in like NINE YEARS it feels funky.

I need a fix of smt else... or this will fester in my mind LMAO!!

#BRO I AM SO TORN WHAT ELSE AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WHEN IM BORED? MY WORK?#raganrok has brain worms for eo3
