Have you heard about the new Apothecary of Night Raven College? They said that the Apothecary, Claudine is kinda apethetic.

Claudine grew up with the belief that he had to stay away from any incoming troubles, attempting really hard to distance himself from the lively chaotic atmosphere of Night Raven College. He only put his hands in when 'the troubles' implied him too, which happens quite a lot.

Actually, when the students met him, he was known for being very kind and.. clumsy.

Due to this clumsiness, the guy often messes up the potions that he gives to his patients, for instance: Mixing a pain-reducing potion as another one that upgrading their pains. Some said this may be a facade, for they once volunteered as Claudine's test subjects and it went.. good suprisingly.

Accepting the invitation, Claudine tries really hard not to sound judgemental. And falls amazingly. He couldn't really not to say his mind out, even if that hurts people in the process.

As a result of this, Claudine was presented as some old hag who kept scolding them despise making the same mistake. A man who's obssessed on some ordinary herbs.

He isn't, really. Yet he couldn't convey that out.

He just want to learn everything about herbs and potions, helping the in-need. The Apothecary tends to suprise everyone with his medical knowledges, one can even say that he's a Medi-Witch!

Although he can't understant the affections lovers gave to eachothers, but it's fine. He won't say that outloud, never will.

To his father, it was not being able to differ human faces normally.

To him, it was not being able to distinguish human emotions.

✬Unique Magic: Nature's Journey (自然の旅)

"May all wishes, of happiness and love will become true. Praying to the Millennium Tree from above, I will set up.. a Nature's Journey."

↳ The user is capable of healing others through plants. When using this ability, herbs and plants will start warping over the injured's wounds, healing them completely. This can be applied to dead people too, although their body must be intact.

꒷꒦꒷꒦•°•════ஓ๑†๑ஓ════•°•꒷꒦꒷꒦

↳Backstory: 《Child of White》

↳Main Theme: Daughter of White_mothy + Ultamarine Hymm_ Eve

↳ Claudine used to have a relationship with the Millenium Spirit, Mikaela. But later they got seperated as one got to RSA and one got to NRC.

↳Let's see.. He isn't one for Valetine's Day! Whenever NRC celebrates it, he just setttles inside his infirmary room, rarely coming out.

↳Is very protective of his students. One touch on them, and Nature's Journey may turn you into a decipitated corpse later!

↳Claudine is a rare user of Divinity and Anti-Divinity at the same time. This has caused many troubles for the staffs at NRC, for it all depending on Claudine's mood for it to be stable.

↳Claudine is implied to have Marie Antoinette Syndrome and Alexithymia.

↳Although looks weak, Claudine can actually beat Minako easily in terms of physical strength, no magic and weapons involve! He even once beats Jack in an arm wrestling with ease.

↳ Is actually good at technology. But the only device you see him using is his phone, and it's when he need to research on herbs!

↳Claudine used to study martial arts and weapon mastery. Just in cases!

Carry Me Home - Part 2

Morpheus x fem!reader

While being tucked into bed by the King of the Nightmare Realm was lovely, waking up with a hangover from Hell was not.

A pitiful groan works its way up your throat as you roll over to the cool side of your bed, trying to find relief for your overheated skin. You kick off the blanket as you snuggle into the cold, trying to will your body back to sleep as you chase after the last scene of your dream.

After a few more moments of tossing and turning, you admit defeat and blink open weary eyes. Once the waking world comes into focus, the sight of painkillers and a tall glass of water on your beside table greet you.

It could only be Morpheus’ doing. You weren’t capable of such forethought last night. With a grimace on your face, you drag yourself upright enough to pop the pills in your mouth and chase them down with a gulp of water. Its at the temperature of ice water despite the lack of condensation and you could cry from the relief it brings your parched throat.

“Fuckkk…I love you, Morph.” you mumble against the rim of your glass as you lean back against the headboard.

“He loves it when you say that.”

The speed at which you turn your head towards the raven perched at the end of your bed nearly gives you whiplash.

“How the fuck did you get in?”

“The bathroom window was open.”

“Oh.”

You and Matthew sit in comfortable silence as you continue to sip your glass of heavenly water.

“What did you mean by that?”

“What?”

You shoot Matthew a death stare over the rim of your glass.

“Oh, the boss loves it every time you say you love him. Makes him feel all warm and fuzzy inside.”

You nearly snort water out of your nose. “Dream? Warm and fuzzy? Seriously?”

“I am being serious!” Matthew’s feathers puff up with indignation, "Every time you say those words, Dream becomes a much more lenient boss. He takes whatever opportunity he can get to be close to you." "That's..." you clear you throat, wishing there was some water left in your glass, "That's a lot of information before breakfast."

"Sorry, kid. Rough night?"

"Fun night, rough hangover." you manage a grin as you set the empty glass back down, "Wanna stick around for a cuppa tea, Matthew?"

"I'd love to."

"Cool. Be a dear and boil the kettle for me, would you? There should be enough water in it. I'm gonna have a quick shower first, feel free to help yourself to whatever's in the kitchen."

"Don't have to tell me twice."

Matthew swoops out the door as you drag yourself off to the bathroom.

--- You hear the sound of the kettle switch flicking off and the rumble of boiling water as you round the corner, drying your hair off with the towel draped around your shoulders.

"Feeling better?" Matthew asks from his spot on the kitchen counter.

"Definitely," you sigh as you hang the damp towel over the back of one of the chairs, "What kind of tea do you fancy today, Matthew?"

"Earl Grey, please." "Milk, sugar?"

"Yes to both." You take two mugs out of the cupboard, pausing as you notice the small parcel by the kettle. It has your name on it.

"What's this?" you ask as you tug at the string to unwrap it.

"Hangover cure from the Boss."

"Dream was here?" you blink over your shoulder at Matthew.

"Nah, he had me send it over. Under strict instructions to make sure that you drink it. Not allowed to come back until you do."

No wonder Matthew agreed to stick around for breakfast. You almost snort with laughter as you unfold the wrapping, which turns out to also be a handwritten note from Dream. Upon seeing the size of the cloth teabag, you swap your mug for a tea bowl and begin to read as you pour the hot water into it.

Your Grace,

The corners of your mouth creep up into a smile. Could it be? Do you share an inside joke with the Dream Lord now?

According to the dreams of the best apothecaries in the Waking World over the last millennia, this tea contains the best herbs to help alleviate the aftermath of overindulging in alcohol. I hope it is of use to you. - Morpheus

You are practically glowing as you lift the note to your lips and press a kiss to the parchment.

"I love you." your whisper, watching in amazement as the note dissipates into sand and stardust.

You lift the bowl to your lips, taking care to blow a couple of times before taking a careful sip, eyes widening in surprise.

"Huh...not bad."

"Where's mine?" Matthew squawks in an accusatory tone.

"Sorry, sorry."

You get to work brewing Matthew his cuppa, changing your mind about the kind of mug you originally picked and deciding on a wide teacup to make drinking more convenient for him. You ratio the water and milk out so the tea is at the perfect drinking temperature before placing the drink in front of him and heading over to the toaster.

"Would you like some toast, Matthew?"

"Sure, I'll have a slice."

"What do you want on it?"

"Got any butter?"

You retrieve the tub of butter from the fridge, along with some avocado and smoked salmon for yourself - that combo with a sprinkle of black pepper has you in a chokehold lately. After you butter Matthew's toast accordingly, you rip it up into bite-sized pieces before sliding the plate towards him. Matthew murmurs his thanks before digging in with gusto. You lean your head against your palm as your elbow presses into the countertop, watching Matthew as you chew your own mouthful of toast, contemplating. Eventually, you're brave enough to break the silence.

"Why'd you tell me all that stuff?"

"Hmm?" Matthew buries his beak in his tea, the hum being the only indication that he heard you.

"About Morph, and how...how he feels about me...?" "Honestly?" Matthew stares you down and you stare back at him, "there's only so much one can take of watching the slowest slow-burn ever." You gulp down on your tea so fast you start to choke on it.

"C'mon kid, between you and me, you know you've gotta be the one to say something. The Boss has all the time in the world. He's Endless. By the time he works up the courage to make first move, you'll be dead and buried. No offence."

"None taken." you mumble around a mouthful of toast. There's not much conversation after that and you're quite content to eat the rest of your breakfast in silence. Matthew's given you a lot to think about. -- "Hey Boss, how's it going? (Y/N) drank that tea you sent her, all of it. And...Boss? Hey, you okay? Boss?"

Matthew tilts his head at the sight of Morpheus on his throne, but for all his trying, Morpheus doesn't appear to hear the loyal raven.

No, he's far too occupied with the lingering feeling of your kiss pressed into his cheek from his stardust, fingertips still on his cheekbone as if he's trying to keep the feeling there. In his other hand, the parchment materialises, your words scrawled in the smallest print as if it is a secret:

'I love you.'

Hehe I'm excited for this, and y'all can get some pre-plague lore about Merf! (I'm currently oscillating between making a post about Merf's past life here or just writing a full on fic about it so for now this is what you get)

Merf's Character Dynamics With the M6

(listed in true Brainrot fashion ;D)

Julian

- despite all the sass between them, they're actually very good friends

- dramatic? Bookworms? Speaking primarily in sarcasm? Mentally unstable? Secretly sweethearts beneath all the deadpan snarkiness? Yeah they hit it off great together

- since Merf doesn't drink she does have to be that one sober friend™ sometimes when the raven gets a little too rowdy, and will usually gang up with Asra to make fun of Julian in the morning when he's hung over

- despite needing a couple more years in medical school (and to Muriel's mild annoyance), Julian immediately became Merf's go-to physician, as well as a through line to Mazelinka & her soup the second Merf was introduced to it.

- will sometimes go to see Julian's plays on date night with Muriel

- in her past life, Merf didn't really know Julian until after the plague hit. When she turned the shop into a goodwill center dealing out relief for plague victims and their families, Julian ended up being a frequent customer for medical supplies. They quickly became friends, and Merf became a huge source of information for Julian's research since she dealt with plague victims on the daily.

- unfortunately, Julian was also the one to watch Merf get dragged off to the quarantine island when she eventually caught the plague, and Julian was also the one to bear the bad news to Asra afterwards.

Asra

- Merf's first best friend

- the person who knows Merf the best besides Muriel

- even though Merf doesn't live in the shop anymore, she still comes in to work there part time.

- Asra has yet to convince Merf to give him full custody of the shop, even though he has to pay rent now; Merf is of the idea that as long as she's still the legal owner then Asra won't be able to burn it down on accident

- it took Merf three whole months to finally convince Asra and Julian to propose to each other, and two more months to convince them to agree on a date for the wedding

- outside of work, Merf enjoys spending quiet afternoons with Asra - either with the rest of their friends or without - and will occasionally participate in a prank

- in Merf's past life, she and Asra met when he visited her shop one day to get magical components for a spell. (For those who haven't read my fic) Merf didn't have any magical abilities at the time, so her shop was devoted mostly to selling herbs, gemstones & crystals, talismans, and other apothecary type products both plain and magical. Merf thought Asra was a pretty interesting character, and quickly became friends with him with every visit he made to the shop.

- the true turning point in Merf and Asra's relationship though was when Merf was running errands one day and discovered Asra's fortune-telling stall on the street. Before Asra could even explain anything Merf had already given him a bed in her shop, and that was how it became a proper magic and fortune-telling shop instead of a regular apothecary.

- when the plague hit, Merf and Asra had a falling out. Merf wanted to stay in the city and put the shop to good use helping others, while Asra wanted to leave the city so that they could be safe until the plague blew over. After a pretty bitter argument, the two went their separate ways and stayed that way until Merf died.

- it was quite a shock to Asra when he was visited post-ritual by a gruff pirate captain holding a newly-resurrected Merf in his arms

- especially since Merf no longer looked human

- it was an even bigger shock when they both discovered Merf had magic, and Asra quickly had to become mentor before Merf set something on fire by accident

- it actually took a while after Lucio's defeat for the subject of Merf's resurrection to come up with the rest of the M6, and boy oh boy did Merf and Muriel give Asra an earful for not saying anything about the ritual for three years

- Asra definitely knows now more than ever to be up front and honest with Merf - unless it's a surprise and/or gift that will be revealed anyway

Nadia

- not many people in Vesuvia can say that they're best friends with the Countess, and Merf is very smug about that fact

- most of Merf's visits to the palace begin with an invitation to tea with Nadia, and end with Muriel dragging Merf away from the palace library by the scruff of her neck as the sun sets on the horizon

- teatime conversations can consist of anything ranging from Merf's latest hyperfixation to advice for the current event Nadia's planning

- occasionally Merf will get a note from Chandra asking her to come to the palace and model a bit to help Nadia think; both of them have discovered that Merf's artist eye is excellent for picking out colors and patterns that work well together

- Merf can't thank Nadia enough for her help in organizing a museum exhibit devoted to Khamgalai's tapestries and the history of the Kokhuri, as well as organizing the Kokhuri of Vesuvia and beyond.

- there's a special section of the wardrobe devoted to the fabulous clothes Nadia has gifted Merf and Muriel, as well as a jewelry stand Muriel made for all the new jewelry Nadia has bestowed upon Merf

- past life! Merf didn't have much of an impression of Nadia beyond rumors, so she would have had the same reaction if she scene where they meet in the shop had happened before the plague

Muriel

- if you couldn't tell by what I've already written, Merf and Muriel are married :D

- to absolutely no one's surprise, they were the first out of their new friend group to tie the knot, with Asra and Julian following over a year afterwards (Merf is slowly working on helping Portia woo Nadia)

- it's hard to put into words how right Merf and Muriel fit together; Merf helped Muriel see that life is something that's meant to be lived, and without either of them realizing it Muriel ended up being everything Merf wanted in a man

- kind and caring? Check. A good listener who cares deeply about her and her wants and needs? Check. A fellow introvert content to stay home and do nothing? Check. A cuddle buddy for life? Check. A man who thinks sex is a question and the answer is probably not? Check. Ridiculously handsome? Hell yeah, double check!

- and then there were the things Merf wasn't even expecting to fall in love with; the adorable way her husband blushes at affection, all the carved gifts, seeing him laugh and smile every day, being kissed-

- Merf can keep going ad infinitem about how amazing it is to be in love with her husband, he can literally do no wrong in her eyes

- also getting to live in the woods is a plus

- Inanna is the bestest girl in the world and words cannot express how much Merf loves her

- date nights. All the time.

- some of her new favorite memories are getting to visit Khamgalai with Muriel in dreams

- and of course one of the biggest and most important projects of Merf's life is helping Muriel bring the Kokhuri back together, because she has a family again and she's not about to let it go any time soon

- the size contrast between Merf and Muriel is hilarious; everyone knows Muriel is 6' 10", and (for those who haven't read the fic or seen my blog) Merf is 5' 3". They are both very aware that Merf fits into the tiny but mighty wife trope, and most of the time it's hilarious

- good husbands and wives mentally spiral together, and these two are no exception. Muriel quickly learns to remember the things that Merf forgets, as well as get her back on track when ADD moments cause her to jump between ten different tasks at once. They also do a great job of cancelling out each other's anxiety/depression moments, and panic attacks between the two of them are rare and over quickly now that they're together.

- it was actually pretty funny when Asra tried to introduce Merf to Muriel pre-plague, because Muriel and Merf already knew each other due to Merf's frequent wanderings in the forest. Asra was pissed that no one told him, and even more pissed that Merf wouldn't stop laughing

Portia

- they are besties your honor

- what time Merf is not spending at the palace library or with Nadia, she is hanging out with Portia and the wait staff

- the kitchen all know what Merf likes and make a game of guessing what she's in the mood for

- it didn't take very long for Merf and Portia to be nearly as close as Merf is with Asra and Muriel, there's so much for them to talk about

- especially books, they are the best book buddies ever. Sometimes Nadia has to help Muriel drag Merf and Portia out of the library

- they are each other's worst enablers, if a question is asked the immediate response is do it

- unless it comes to self care, and then they both berate each other for not doing it

- Merf and Asra are also in the interesting position of mentoring Portia in magic, after Portia frantically bursting into the hut one night after magically setting her fist on fire (no one was hurt, although everyone was a little bit shaken). Julian is not thrilled

- speaking of Julian, Merf and Portia like to prank him a lot. Now that Portia's learning magic there are three magicians intent on giving Julian grief; this man knows no peace

Lucio

- ......

- *inhale*

- F*K YOU GOATMAN >:)

- after the games, Merf went missing for a bit. They finally found her dancing on top of the bridge leading to the palace, shouting, "I disrespect your bridge goatman! Look at how I dance on it, it's my bridge now! You want me off this bridge, you're gonna have to kill me!"

- reactions were mixed, ranging from confused (Nadia & Muriel) to dying of laughter (Julian, Portia, and Asra)

- you tortured my husband and friends and tried to kill all of them, I have no sympathy for you

- and I'm not sorry either ;)

- past life! Merf also disagreed with Lucio and his methods, and graffitied several of his statues

Apothecary Diaries Episode 4: The Threat

Yes, I know, I never got around to talking about the first three episode of Apothecary Diaries, but let's just focus on the present! Namely, a rather popular duo (China and Moa Ang) have appeared on this episode as episode director/storyboarder and animation director respectively. Their quality and fine control over animation has given me some things I really talk about today!

So, a bit of background. China as a key animator is mostly known for their consistent work with Yama Nu Susume, whereas Moa Ang is a bit more freeform. Regardless, they've worked on quite a few episodes together as fellow key animators, and have (apparently) got quite the bond. But that's just a preface to the wonderful work they bring in this episode, most noticeable in the opening sequence.

I mean, the refinement of the character acting is incredible. Sure, it's not got any ridiculous shading or detail in the clothing, but the movements are so refined and real that it's crazy. The boldness of China's direction to rely on refinement that could produce a scene like this is pretty crazy. Even crazier is the fact that it's not a one off.

The use of static framing and the bold decision to avoid panning as much as possible really does a lot for the episode I feel. It brings a sense of tension that is only heightened by the character acting, and works absolute wonders when Maomao's composure breaks in regards to treating Lihua.

This part is really something special I feel because it stretches the limits of expression within such a "tight" show. It changes up Maomao's character design, messes with perspective, and uses framing to deliver a startlingly enraged Apothecary.

Using all of the tools at China's disposal, they force Maoamo to tower over the lady in waiting, they use the framing to ensure that Maomao remains taller within the frame, and even uses the makeup powder to provide a slight visual effect to deepen the feeling of the scene. It's impressively strong visual work that provides a subjective retelling of the experience through the lady in waiting's fearful eyes.

Okay, so maybe this post seems a little short? But I don't actually have much more to add. The focus on character acting in the episode is incredibly good, and unless I go through and provide individual examples of it, I don't have much to add. They do use camera movement in the episode, but it's thoughtful work that traces the movement of the characters rather than filling empty air.

I think one thing I wish we could get more of is the very bold environment art. Not that what we have in this episode is bad, I mean, it's all incredibly detailed and pretty, but the ones that play with light are just so nice.

There's just something that can end up feeling missing with environment art when you get to see ones like the above. Because, I mean, what we get of the Lihua's palace here certainly isn't bad. It's incredibly pretty and well done. It's just that without any sort of visual effects, it's almost... plain?

It's something I was actually chatting about with a friend last night in how strong composition and visual effects/photography is very much neglected in a lot of series. Now, I wouldn't say that this one is doing anything of the sort, but when you compare to the very strong and noticeable work to the prior two backgrounds and compare it to the third one, it feels like there's potential left on the table. especially because they're a little sneaky and denote differences in the time of day with the coloring. It's just not that strong, or at least I feel it isn't. I believe there's potential left on the table with where they're willing to go.

But yeah, that's about it. I wouldn't say I dislike the story through the first four episodes so far, but the idea of a purpose and direction doesn't really come to mind, and there's not a massive amount of depth to the medicinal side either. Not that it lacks a draw, but maybe delivery?

I just think about Raven of The Inner Palace. The setups are sorta similar, the flows are comparable. But the engagement and interest that appeared with Raven for me is entirely different. Here, it's almost the opposite- the visuals interest me a great deal more than the story has. I'm hoping that will change because the idea behind it is a very very interesting one that has a lot of potential, but I'm just yet to really be given the substance and depth of the series.

Naruto-Characters as Warhammer 40k-factions

After doing something like this with atla-characters, I thought it was fun to do this with Naruto-characters. Again, this is gonna be very silly. Also all 40k factions, not just astartes-legions

Itachi: Night Lords. Renegade that uses copious amounts of terror tactics and there would be a lot more dead if someone else did the job (which doesn‘t justify what they did). Also fan favorites with black eyes, black hair and pale skin. Tough upon further thinking, Harlequin might also work? Very strong, insanly fast, kind of fragile and the terror tactics are more mind fuckery than skining people. Kisame: Carcharodons. Guys with a sharktheme and a lust for blood and I like them a lot. Samehada is allready nearly a chainsword! Sasori: The Mechanicum greatly appreciates your effort in replacing your flesh with machine-bits. Also human-puppets are pretty close to servitors Hidan: Gruesome murder for the sake of gruesome murder and personal entertainment? Sounds like the Drukhari are gonna love him. He even prolongs his life with the suffering of others! Or Slaanesh. Slaanesh would also work just not aesthetically. Kakuzu: Rogue Trader. Near infinite personal freedom and a ton of money? Yeah, he would be up for that (also they are allowed to keep Drukhari around) Konan: I‘m gonna say Sisters of Battle or Sisters of Silence, I can‘t quite remember if she sees Nagato more as a god or just a powerfull guy.

Tobirama: Inquisition. Just look at the guy who invented necromancy to use undead as a never ending tide of bombs and tell me that he wouldn‘t enjoy a little exterminatus from time to time and having waaay too much power over people. Hashirama: I‘m gonna say Exodite Eldar just for the nature-theme. Maybe also avatar of Isha? They are usually nice and have healing stuff, but you still don‘t wanna piss them of Madara: Chaos champion or demon prince, maybe he get‘s a upgrade at some point. Either Khorne or Chaos undivided, because while he does a lot of war and murders a lot of people, he also does some other stuff.

Tsunade, Shizune and Sakura: Space Marine Apothecary. Tanky battle medic. Gaara: Blood Angels. Starts out bloodcrazy and only wanting to fight but he get‘s better and ends up beeing a pretty nice guy. Also both are from deserts. Sasuke: Raven Guard maybe? He‘s suitably emo looking and Raven Guard and Night Lords really dislike each other. Orochimaru: Magos Biologis or Drukhari Homuculi coven. Doing weird, definetly unethical human experimentation as one does. Kabuto: Necrons or maybe something Nurgely? Just a guy commanding legions of the undead. Thousand Sons might also work, a sorcerer controlling empty hulls of what once were people.

Hyuuga-clan: Navigator House, eyerelated superpowers they are super secretive about, a lot of power but isolated from wider society and definetly too much inbreeding Jinchuuriki: Maybe Titans Princeps? Humans capable of controlling giant Battle-things but if they aren‘t carefull, that things mind can take over.

These are just the ones I came up with, if you have more or disagre with one of my classifications, feel free to add your opinion!

#Yeah I know that the avatar of Isha is more a warhammer fantasy thing but they could exist in 40k so it‘s fine #warhammer 40k #naruto #crossover #headcanon #silly headcanons #itachi uchiha #kisame hoshigaki #sasori #the akatsuki #kakuzu #hidan #senju tobirama #hashirama senju #madara uchiha #tsunade #sakura haruno #sabaku no gaara #orochimaru

CW: vampires, accident/physical trauma mention, public humiliation, consensual and nonconsensual hypnosis, themes of the submissive being unable to disobey because his purpose is servitude

Newly turned vampire’s submissive nature is revealed in a hypnosis class.)

Eddie looked around the room at the circle of students and he had one thought: he wasn’t cut out to be a vampire.

Most of the others in this class had chosen to walk the path of night, had spent years seeking the opportunity to become vampires, powerful and eternal. But Eddie? Just a week before his accident, the local government had made it legal for next of kin to sign a form allowing a patient to be turned if it was the only thing that would save their life. He didn’t even remember the accident, but he did remember waking up ravenous, strapped down to a hospital bed with a muzzle shielding the nurse from his fangs. He was lucky to be alive. Well, sort of alive. He’d recoiled from his first blood bag, until eventually giving in to the hunger and draining it in seconds. Even then, he didn’t really feel like a vampire.

It had been two months, and he still didn’t know the first thing about being a vampire. They were supposed to be strong, charismatic, and commanding. Eddie just felt out of control, and that frightened him.

But, he supposed, that was exactly why newly turned vampires were required to take classes on how to use their powers. It all seemed a little funny, almost too normal for beings who supposedly held such power. But there they were, sat in a circle in the back of a closed apothecary.

The instructor walked in, a tall, confident presence in the dimly lit room. Beside him, his human partner pulled up a chair.

“Most of you know me,” the instructor began, “but for those who don’t, I am Victor. This is my partner, Isabelle. She has agreed to help me with a demonstration for today’s class. Today, we will be discussing the art of hypnosis.”

A few of the other fledgling vampires cheered or laughed. Eddie stayed silent, stiffening in his chair. He’d heard rumors, but he’d thought vampires’ hypnotic powers had been one of many misconceptions. He wasn’t sure why, but the thought of it made him feel strange. He watched closely as Victor sat across from Isabelle. She looked into Victor’s eyes, and there was an immediate connection, some sort of electricity, between them.

“That’s it,” Victor said, his voice low and soothing, “look into my eyes and forget.” Isabelle’s eyelids fluttered, and her jaw went slack. “Forget your name,” he said, “forget everything except the here and now. You are under my control.”

Eddie felt a pop inside his mouth as his fangs suddenly extended, poking down between his lips. He quickly covered his mouth, trying his best to look casual as he hid his face behind his hand.

A vampire could typically retract their fangs, but there were a few situations where they could not control them: when feeding, when they felt intense emotions such as anger, and when they were turned on. Eddie wasn’t sure why, but at the sight of Isabelle’s entranced face, at the sound of Victor’s voice, he felt intensely horny. Though his classmates looked interested in the lesson, none of them appeared to be having the same reaction as Eddie.

“What is your name?” Victor asked Isabelle as she appeared to rise from the trance.

“I… I’m not… not sure…” she replied, a hazy and confused look on her face.

“Where are you from?”

“I can’t remember.”

Eddie felt himself blushing. He hadn’t realized that vampires could blush.

Victor smiled, looking around the class. “It’s quite simple to hypnotize a human. Nearly all humans can be hypnotized. The key is eye contact, though with a well-trained subject, you’ll find that even a simple gesture can carry great strength.” With that, he waved a hand, and Isabelle fell back into trance. He whispered a few words into her ear, and in a moment she was back to normal. Victor checked in with her, making sure she was okay, that she remembered who she was, and after gathering herself, she stood, getting herself a cup of water from the cooler as the class continued.

“Typically, vampires cannot be hypnotized,” said Victor. “For example, most of you know Eli, yes?” He motioned toward one of the new vampires, a dark-haired man with golden eyes. Many members of the class gave affirmations, and Eli smirked. “Let’s see if I can hypnotize you.” Victor stood over him for a moment, looking into his eyes. The smirk never left his lips, and after a moment, both he and Victor broke the silence with laughter. Eddie felt relief as his fangs finally retracted. “A very headstrong young vampire,” said Victor, turning back to the class. “Even one skilled in hypnosis would struggle to control his mind.”

“However,” he continued, “there are some vampires who are unable to resist hypnosis. Those who enjoy being controlled. Those who are aroused by it.”

Eddie swallowed. He tried to avoid looking at Victor as he continued. “Some refer to these types of vampires as thralls, others simply call them servants or vampire-slaves. Most of us thrive on control, on freedom, but not all. Some have a deep need to be controlled. It is their purpose to serve other vampires. For instance, you, Eddie.”

Eddie’s stomach sank as the class all looked in his direction, Victor approaching from the other end of the circle. “I know you’ve been trying very hard to hide it,” he said, amusement in his voice, “but your fangs came out the moment I put Isabelle in trance.”

“I-I…” Eddie stammered, at a loss for words, “I wasn’t, I mean… I’m not… that’s not… true…” his voice became quieter and smaller as he spoke. He heard a classmate giggle next to him.

Victor swiftly took a step forward, suddenly grabbing Eddie’s chin with his hands, forcing him to look up. “Oh? You don’t want to be controlled?” That was enough to bring out Eddie’s fangs again, and with his face clasped in Victor’s hand, he couldn’t hide them. He tried not to whimper as he looked up at Victor, who smiled and said, “Everyone can tell just by looking at you how pathetic you are, how weak you are. But you’re a good boy, aren’t you?”

Hot, blood-tears of shame stung Eddie’s eyes as he tried to pull out of Victor’s grasp. “I’m not.. any of those things you said. I know I’m not like most of you, but if you’re going to single me out, I’m leaving.” Eddie pulled himself out of his chair and headed toward the door.

“Nonsense,” said Victor. “Take a seat at the center of the class.”

Eddie suddenly froze. He felt compelled, as though his body was out of his control. He felt the eyes of the students all on him, watching him with amusement, pity, and a few with expressions of sadistic pleasure as he walked back to the center of the circle.

“Notice how I didn’t even have to hypnotize him. That is the mark of a very good servant. It is nearly impossible for him to disobey a direct order from another vampire, especially one who is older and more powerful. One like this rarely remains free for long… I wonder which of his lucky classmates will take ownership of him.”

“N-no…” Eddie didn’t even know how to protest. He couldn’t believe what was happening. He felt like he was being auctioned off, like the traits that had embarrassed him as a human— his submissiveness, his eagerness to please, his obedient nature— had been elevated to an extreme now that he was a vampire, and were on display for all to see. He had never felt more humiliated.

But his fangs were still out. As humiliated as he felt, he also felt immense pleasure. He was enjoying this, and everyone could see it.

“When it comes to obedience, it is unlikely that you will need to hypnotize someone like Eddie,” said Victor, looking down at him, “but, of course, it’s so much fun.”

Victor gazed into Eddie’s eyes and Eddie quickly closed them, turning his head away. “No, Eddie,” Victor said softly, his voice gentle and coaxing, “Don’t look away. Be a good boy and look into my eyes.”

Eddie couldn’t help it. He felt his body obey, his eyes locking with Victor’s.

An immediate calm washed over him. The rest of the class, the room, the shame he was feeling, faded away until they were nothing but a blur. There was nothing but him, and Victor’s eyes, and Victor’s voice, and a warm, inviting darkness that closed in around him.

“Very good, Eddie,” Victor put a gentle hand on Eddie’s head. Eddie’s face was locked in a vacant stare, his mouth half-open, revealing his fangs. Victor turned his attention back to the class. “Some people believe that a human cannot take control over a vampire. I am about to prove this theory false.”

Isabelle walked back to the center of the class as Victor spoke to Eddie, “For the moment, Eddie, you belong to Isabelle. She is your master. Your superior. Until I tell you otherwise, all you want in this world is to please her. It is your purpose to serve. You were made for this.”

Eddie’s eyelids fluttered. In the back of his mind, he could hear his own voice protesting. But that voice was so quiet compared to Victor’s, and so much less convincing.

“Repeat what I have told you,” said Victor.

“I belong to Isabelle. She is my master. My superior. Until you tell me otherwise, all I want in this world is to please her. It is my purpose to serve. I was made for this.” Eddie said the words robotically, his mouth obeying without his will behind it.

A blood-tear rolled down his cheek, but it wasn’t because he was afraid. It was because he knew it was true. It was his purpose to serve. Even in trance, it felt so good to say it. Victor wiped the tear from his cheek, and waved a hand over Eddie’s face.

Eddie blinked. Some awareness returned to him, but he was not quite himself. Something was off, different. There was only one thing on his mind: he needed to serve Isabelle.

“Eddie,” she called, and he immediately looked to face her. He was eager, like a puppy. He couldn’t help himself. He was so excited to serve Isabelle. He needed it. Was it strange for a vampire to serve a human? Was it odd that he should do so in front of the class? He couldn’t consider these matters. He could only serve Isabelle.

She motioned him over, and she swiftly pushed him to his knees. “Who am I?” She asked.

“You are Isabelle, my master. My superior.”

“Very good,” she said, patting his head like a dog. She looked to Victor, “He’s so cute! Can we keep him?”

Victor looked amused. “Perhaps, but I think we will have some competition.”

Eddie couldn’t understand any of this. He already belonged to Isabelle. What competition could there be? She looked down at him. “Kiss the tops of my shoes, pet.”

Eddie did. Others in the class snickered behind him, but he could barely hear them.

“Remove your shirt and pants.”

Eddie did, folding them neatly beside him before returning to his kneeling position in front of Isabelle, wearing only his underwear.

“Stick out your tongue,” she said, and he did, eagerly looking up at her.

“Bark for me.”

He did, and more of his classmates reacted around him.

“Alright,” said Victor, “I think that’s enough for today.” He waved a hand in front of Eddie and said, “I release you.”

Awareness came over Eddie’s face. He suddenly realized that he was naked, and he scrambled to cover himself with his clothes. Isabelle helped him to his feet. The moments before, kneeling before her, had passed as though they were a dream. As he pulled his clothes back on, Victor patted him on the shoulder, ushering him back towards his seat.

Eddie sat back down, covering his face in his hands. He was so thoroughly embarrassed, so humiliated. And yet… it somehow felt right. His fangs still refused to retract in his mouth. He realized it would probably be a while before he would calm down enough to retract them.

As the fledgling vampires left the class, Eddie trailed behind, arms hugging his sides. Up ahead of him, Eli turned back, his expression hard to read.

“Eddie,” said Eli with a smile, “Carry my bag.”

“Okay,” Eddie responded automatically, reaching for it. He felt butterflies in his stomach. He knew this would be the first of many times his classmates exploited his obedience, now that it had been revealed to them. That thought, the thought of being unable to disobey them, gave him a thrill.

“And Eddie?” Added Eli, as he walked just a little ahead of Eddie, leading him.

“Yes?”

“When I give you an order, say ‘yes, sir.’”

Eddie blushed, the words escaping his lips, “Yes, sir.”

“Good boy.”

Mekakushi.. What a sweet boy he is.

Judging from his whole appearance, you may as well think him like someone who's hard to talk with. In some cases, it's correct somehow but that's the totally different case for him.

..Mekakushi may not be cold. At all.

To people, Mekakushi is a person who keep his voice slienced. But to others who knows him, he is a very naive guy who just want to see the world.

It's just that,, Mekakushi is quite the people-pleaser, no?

Doing others' works and helping people despise he doesn't want to.. That sounds quite uncomfortable isn't it? But to someone like Mekakushi, he has already adapted to this new personality of his. He has grew up like this, after all.

Mekakushi is described to be naive in human eyes. He always finds postive traits of even the worst people around him, even if that payed him a cost. But he seems to apologise often, for what he didn't do.

Mekakushi is very kind. That he gets taken advantage of his kindness by most people around him. Whilist he knew that he was being manipulated, that people were guilt tripping him, he couldn't say 'No.'

And that was a weakness of him, honestly.

Sometimes, Mekakushi felt an unexplainable anger inside him, one that burned his heart up alive.

But he couldn't release that outside. He can't.

↳Backstory: [TBA]

↳Main Theme: Tokyo Getto • Ultamarine Hymm_ Eve

↳Mekakushi used to be the test subject in the same project KAFU was involved. However, he ran away sooner than them for a month, and then got transported to Night Raven College through a gate.

↳He likes to refer himself as 'Mekakushi Kisaragi' rather than 'Mekakushi Hirohana.' The reason was because due to personal issues regarding his family. However, some said that 'Hirohana' was his mother's name.

↳Being a Medusa, Mekakushi also has the ability to open a timeloop called 'Kagerou Daze.' But until this time, he doesn't know it.

↳Mekakushi was SA by Yuzu Sakamaki multiple times.

↳He can speak Swedish, Japanese, Russian, English, and a few more languages.

↳Mekakushi is implied to have PTSD.

↳He has lifeless and cold eyes. Although that, he seems prefers to act than talks.

Tag Nine People You'd Like To Get To Know Better Tag Game

I was tagged by @chamerionwrites over Here. I will be tagging no one, for I am where tag games go to die.

FAVOURITE COLOUR(s): As mentioned in the last tag game I completed (here) it's purple! I wear other colours more frequently, but I have a lot of small purple things around.

FAVOURITE FLAVOUR(s): That's hard. I like savoury and sweet at the same time, I suppose, and I like adding some confit garlic into a toastie because it just... elevates the savoury of the cheese with some extra umami. I like a good chai or a medieval spice mix - cinnamon, allspice, ginger, cloves. In the UK they're so often used specifically at Christmas but they're such a good combo all year round.

FAVOURITE MUSIC: I am... bad, at genres. I like what I like and the music I like tends to be... melodic but textured? It's not just one instrument or type of instrument, I like the roughness of a more metal guitar over the smoothness of a rounded backing beat or melodic synth, and I like more melodic tunes than pure beats - this is why I don't gel with a lot of rap or hip-hop. They can be lyrically very impressive, but I listen to music for music, and I've got to be in the right mood for a spoken word poem over a beat. I also just... don't like Musicals in general. I'm not opposed to songs with stories - one of my most-listened to songs is Aviators' Godhunter which is about someone revered by a god who's waiting to be hunted by the person who's killed the rest of their "godly" kin - but I just don't like musicals in general, so musical songs are more miss than hit for me.

FAVOURITE MOVIE(s): Crimson Peak. Guillermo del Toro's films do not miss, and this is the one that dragged me into the gothic horror/romance pit and made me realise that while I don't like standard "thriller", shock-value horror, I like things that go "Hey, isn't this fucked up? Do you want to see how more fucked up it can get?". Things that are aware of the awfulness and don't revel in it but use it to show you and teach you and help you see.

FAVOURITE BOOK(s): Probably the Several on my trauma reading list, honestly, with right now A Dowry of Blood by ST Gibson being tops. For all of you hyped by @theabigailthorn's "Dracula's Ex Girlfriend" announcement who wants something of that premise while they wait, it's a fantastic look at abusive relationships and is told from the perspective of one of Dracula's brides after she and the others have murdered him. Exceptionally good and crunchily fucked up.

FAVOURITE SERIES(es): I don't know, actually. I don't think I have a singular series I enjoy (Well. I did. But then the author went to shit, so it's kind of tainted now). Or- no actually. The Gotham TV Show. Started as a dull as dishwater police procedural set in Gotham and by the time it gets to multiply resurrecting definitely not the Joker you're not sure how it got there but the tonal shift makes perfect sense somehow. Fantastic style, fantastic cast, why are Nygma and Penguin so perfect as bickering, acrimonious exes.

LAST SONG: When I like I song, I listen to it on loop. It is still:

LAST SERIES: That I actually finished was probably Raven of the Inner Palace which is an extremely good anime! Magical worldbuilding and mystery, slowbuilding relationships and fun court drama. It's like Apothecary Diaries but with more magic, and has a similar style to it's worldbuilding as Mars Red - where that slowly dripfed you information on the vampires and makes a rewatch well worth one's time, this also sets stuff up and lets you start to figure it out as it slips in more lore. Highly recommend it.

LAST MOVIE: As said in the last post - it would be Barbie, last week's film night pick. Was good.

CURRENTLY READING: A book called Old Gods, about Finnish wildlife and folklore. I like folklore a lot, so seeing how folklore affects how people have historically seen the world is really cool!

CURRENTLY WATCHING: The latest dubbed episode of Apothecary Diaries (yes, I watch dub. Sadly, I am bad at paying attention when it's subbed because I like to multitask).

CURRENTLY WORKING ON: Several fic projects. Currently aiming to finish up the Kash backstory fic.

[sweetchcolate]

Hi! Apparently, it’s love letters night (or at least it was? Maybe still is? I'm not quite sure lol). But I wanted to drop by anyway and say that I'm so happy we're mutuals, that we get along well, and that the shows and stories we like overlap. It's been really fun talking to you about SAFT, Raven, and the Apothecary Diaries (I need shorthand for this geez haha), and I hope we have more nice conversations in the future ^^

WAAH, thank you so much! The feeling is totally mutual (pun intended hehe) <3

I'm sooooo glad I found you and your analyses while SAFT was airing! I often go back to read them, especially the character analyses (aka the Elliot posts: love that man, he deserves so much content haha) and I'm super happy to see your recent posts regarding SxF or Kusuriya no Hitorigoto. And even if you post about manga/anime/LN I don't know, I love reading your thoughts on them and discovering new series, like Hotaru no Yomeiri :D

Here's to another year of fun conversations! <3

#sweetchcolate's nonsense of the day #askmeagaintmrw #for real when saft was airing i was eagerly hoping to see your url and your new posts in the tag each week. still am to see you on dash <3 #even if our interests should diverge you'll always have a special spot in my heart as mutual ^^

The Rye of Liege - continuation

" I was only tellin' him a story ma'am, " Tom said as the woman dragged her son. "Shot your wee mouth there. Whatcha telling him eh? , won't let you put your madness in him. Lest I ever see your bastard feet near me boy, I swear by The Light, I will cut 'em," the woman responded in a strident tone. Hardfoots were very disapproving of bastards , and even more hostile to bastards that lived with Crazy-Finch. Tom had a lot of oddities: His skin were lighter than usual ,he had dark hair (while Hardfoots typically had blonde, auburn or silver hair) , his ear were more pointy than others , and most evidently of all his feet were shorter.

Hardfoots had their suspicion on him , they discussed his anomalies and how his mother got him , especially the Summer-Hardfoots, but never in front of old Finch, as didn't want his trouble.

The Summer-Hardfoots were hosting the night party, as it was tradition that each household host the other houses, to strengthen their unity.

Finch being the Elder of the Summer-Hardfoots, was his prerogative to head the priming for the party. But he was feeling rather under the weather that morning and had sent Tom to the apothecary, Mr Smig of the Rain-Hardfoots, to get Goat Milk. On Tom's way back , he saw some children gathered round an apple tree looking ravenously at the overripe apples. He helped them pluck it , and then he started telling them a story as the children helped themselves to the apples .

Their story was interrupted by Mrs Buckle Winter-Hardfoot , who came to take her son, Smugus. She rained insults on Tom, that he remembered Finch's message afterwards. He left disheartened though he had grown used to their belligerence towards him. But he had Old Finch and Joi , Mr Finwell's farm girl , for consolation.

Sector One has, over time, become a place of safe harbor for the many immigrants and refugees flowing through the open sprawl of the slums. A constant stream of anonymous faces looking for places to work. Many find work in restaurant kitchens, seedy massage parlors, shady sweatshops or assembly lines, cashing in on monster bounties, black market trading; forms of labor which do not rely on a common language for. All for petty pay rates. Because those who hold the reins of power can and because immigrants ought to fight amongst themselves for scraps rather than compete with the native grounders who resent their presence.

Whatever it takes to raise gil. To not burden Aerith and Elmyra, the latter of whom was already viscerally displeased by his reappearance, and to bring in enough money to recompense Elmyra for looking after Cloud. The challenging part of that entire equation is finding work without raising suspicion about the active presence of at least one of two escaped test subjects.

Staying with Aerith was completely out of the question. Not like there weren’t plenty of nooks and crannies to squat out in, whether in abandoned districts or boarded up sections of the collapsed expressway connecting Sector Five and Six.

After clearing out the monsters and thugs, of course. Only, Aerith wasn’t having that either.

That left…the church. Perfectly serviceable, if a bit drafty as night fell and the chill chipped away at the timeworn stone and any of its gathered warmth during the day.

“Okay, all I’m saying is, if you want to move ground behemoth horn– call it magical sex-enhancing monster powder or beast mode aphrodisiac, I don’t care– you’ll want some muscle to make sure it doesn’t get stolen!”

He’s been trying, for the better part of the last ten minutes, to convince a particularly skeptical traditional medicine seller that they really ought to protect their illicit drugs better. Zack leans his weight on the counter, halfway into launching into a new argument when a suited figure moving in his peripheral view catches his attention.

His first instinct is to hunch away, hide his face and blend back into the crowd, except…He knows this particular Turk.

Their eyes meet, and Zack’s mako-blue irises are a flashing storm of pure fury with the pull of lips over the gleam of bared teeth.

I remember you. I remember what you did in Nibelheim.

The apothecary is summarily forgotten as Zack backs away from the reinforced glass display counter and moves, baleful and raven swift in Jae’s direction. Fast, too fast to escape before Zack catches up and grabs him from behind with enough momentum to slam the Turk face first straight into the ground. Zack sucks in a breath through his teeth as he drives downward, chest to back, he locks his left arm up under Jae’s armpit to viciously pull and twist the limb back while his right hand pins the remaining shoulder against the dirt. Zack leans down by Jae’s ear, hot breath against skin and a barely reined-in quiver of rage in his voice.

 “You…I should fucking kill you. Give me one reason I don’t turn you into a stupid smear on the ground right now.”

BANGS DOWN YOUR DOOR. 💋, 😊, 🔮, 🍆 for yvette AND lukas

💋 How affectionate are they with their friends? Their family? Their romantic partner(s) (if they have any)? Are they more physical or emotional when it comes to displaying their affection? Why?

Both Yvette and Lukas are more physical with displaying affection, because Talking About Feelings Is Hard. That, and they are firm believers of action over words.

Neither of them are very openly affectionate people, unless they know you well and are comfortable enough. Friends will rarely receive physical affection, if at all, but compliments are given with a fair amount of ease. With family and romantic partners the twins are very physically affectionate, and enjoy holding hands, snuggling, etcetc.

I'm guessing? emotional means more like words of affirmation and compliments? In which case Yvette is much more emotionally affectionate than their brother (because he has the social skills of a soggy brick), and they like to compliment and encourage their friends and loved ones often enough.

🍑 Where is your OC’s favourite place to relax or calm down? Recount a story of their time spent in this place! What makes it so special to them?

I've already answered this for Yvette here!

For Lukas, he enjoys any secluded, high-up place, but his favorite is probably the top of the lighthouse in Lion's Arch! It's close to home, far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the forum, and he gets a nice view of the sea and the ships passing through. On days where he feels like going for a swim, he'll jump down into the water nearby.

🔮 Star gazing or cloud watching? Hand-holding or snuggles? Early mornings or late nights?

Yvette's answer is here!

Lukas likes cloud watching more than star gazing, and he loves snuggles. (If you're Yvette or his husband and you start cuddling him, he will be glued to you and you will simply have to live with it.) He much prefers the peace of a late night over an early morning-- in fact he will never willingly wake up at any time before 9am (the world has never needed saving before then, has it?)

🍆 Tea or Coffee or Hot Chocolate? Sweet or Spicy? Fruits or Vegetables?

Yvette is an obsessive tea drinker, and actually makes homemade blends as a hobby! Mostly its just for Tea Enjoyment, but as an apothecary they will make medicinal blends for common ailments upon request. They rarely drink coffee, but if offered they will take a nice cup of hot chocolate. They have a ravenous sweet tooth (they are so easily bribed with cake) and they dislike most vegetables with a passion.

Lukas loves coffee more than he loves himself, and much like his sister he adores sweet foods (he strikes fear into his fellow Vigil soldiers' hearts with the amount of cream and sugar he will pour into his morning cup of coffee). He is very very picky with vegetables (they are Bad Texture), so he naturally enjoys fruit more.
