A Summoner's Disaster

Author's note: Shoutout to @tophatmaker for triggering my writing brain to go overdrive because I love writing characters being complete disasters while being in love.

☆ Rigel, the representative of Queen Tet.

Rigel

☆ Not much was known about him. Most people thought he seemed mysterious, aloof, intelligent, hardworking, strict, scary...

☆ Or they thought he was attractive.

☆ And you were on the latter half.

☆ There wasn't much you could do around him. He always always busy handling the usual affairs as the clan leader of Queen Tet while you were very much busy as the Summoner and dealing with the rest of the guide committee.

☆ Yet, during the interactions you had it always led to you getting embrassed one way or another.

☆ Everytime the two of you passed each other in the halls that would seemingly lead to you tripping on thin air. The others were always concerned for you each time.

☆ You couldn't handle talking to him either. Each time you tried talking that somehow led to you getting flustered.

☆ One of the times you managed to nearly hold a proper conversation with him, he saw your face turned red and put his hand on your forehead to check your temperature. That did not go well and somehow led to you fainting immediately.

☆ You tried expressing your words through creating something for him. You attempted to bake something during an event while hanging out with some members of the guide committee but it immediately got messed up thanks to the rest of your friends causing chaos during the baking session.

☆ You're doing your best around him, okay? But apperantly that involves doing things a sane person wouldn't do.

☆ He's been a witness to uhhh several shennanigins you may or may not have been apart of. How are you alive at this point?

☆ He's watched you break and climb through a window, get stuck in a tree, nearly burn down a lab with Pollux, questionable social media posts, and probably a lot more he's managed to list down.

☆ At this point, the only way you can explain your feelings about this man is through very intense key smashing sessions.

☆You've spent hours trying to figure out what to say to him after getting his contact number from one of the Queen Tet members you knew but never messaged him in the end

☆ Now, it's late at night and you're left wondering...How has he not figured it out you're in love with him yet? You have no idea but hey at least it saves you the embarassment of him confronting you about it.

#arcana twilight #arcana twilight rigel #You girlboss but instead girlfail #arcana twilight headcanons #help I should be asleep I am tired #My brain said silly idea we'll write it #I'm alive!!#Anyway feeding the rigel nation #you guys deserve it #I think

⚠️⚠️Warning! This post is about a dark and gory story that I might write. If you are not comfortable with stories like this please skip. I also have swearing in this, no slurs, there are never slurs on my posts. The worst I get is the f-bomb being used very casually. Be safe people :)⚠️⚠️

SUPRISE!! I'm alive :)

Anyway, have a character from a "monster apocalypse" story that I'm debating about writing

She thinks her name is Dim

She woke up from a year long coma as a Jane doe

She also has Marie Antoinette syndrome

(Naturally white hair/premature graying for those who didn't know)

And because I felt like it she has heterochromania

(Two different colored eyes)

I was (and still am) planning on making this into a comic instead of just a book, so I wanted her to be visually distinctive

Let me explain the plot

Basically she wakes up from a year long coma with no identifications. No family. No name. Just a piece of paper in her pocket that kept confusing all of the staff at the hospital she was in.

All the paper said was "Do not pull the plug" signed (here's the fun part) a constantly changing stream of the names of everyone on the planet. :)

When she woke up a doctor started asking her what she remembered and she said (this is where the story would actually start the previous stuff would've been explained after this) she remembered wandering a strange place with giant butterflies and living stone. She had do defeat ~something~ with a group of 9 other people. They were close but one by one the enemy stole her party away. Eventually it was just her traveling through an unwelcoming land. She found the enemy and took it down with everything she had. Suddenly her friends were free and surrounding her. She collapsed with exhaustion only closing her eyes once they reassured her that they'd still be there when she woke up.

She then opened her eyes in a strange white room with only a faint memory of how they looked. (If I did this as a comic the first chapter would be her adventuring with blurs, probably only seeing them from their backs or focusing on a smile and what not. The chapter would end with her sitting up in the hospital bed saying "hello?")

The doctor explains the letter and asks her name

"Dim, I think. That's what the people in my dream always called me."

She's then checked over, a lot of test are done, none of them have any explanation to her coma. She's healthy as can be. She's released once they're done (actually a nurse helps her escape because he doesn't want to see her become a lab rat)

She leaves with the only item that was on her person. A necklace of rings stuck in an undefined shape (does that make sense? Basically they looked like the "closed" image on the picture)

She's walking down the street and a little kid rums into her. The kid is ratty and filthy, must've been living on the streets for a long time. (Note: I'm not yet decided on if I want to set this on earth or not. If I do I've got a lot of medical procedures to research T_T) the kid asks if they know her, to which she says "I don't know" (note 2: I'm describing the kid as kid with they/them even though the kid is she/her because I want to make her as androgynous as possible when we first meet her. You know, ratty kids on the street have more problems to worry about than (for the love of life I forget the word but it's basically looking like the stereotypical form of your gender)

She keeps moving and the people she sees on the street makes her mind hurt more and more like it's trying to pull memories from no where. Faces that used to be blurs. Etc etc. Like she sees a couple leave their home to go shopping, a pair of twins on their way to school. All that fun stuff.

She's overwhelmed (I think to show this in the comic I would make everything blur except the people that spark missing connections in her mind. Jumping from one to another) she ends up in a park. No one around just a pretty cherry blossom tree blooming (1. Because I love how these trees look 2. Because of a fun little mechanic I have for this story I needed a blossoming tree for her lovely little blooming antlers asthetic)

She holds her head and watches. A kid is running around, and a teen just caught a butterfly and is going to show their friends (why only young people? A way to show how bad this is gonna get :D)

She closes her eyes and when she opens them again the world is changed forever. (Yay! If you are like me, and read way to many of those fantasy monsters in a modern world stories on webtoon you know what's happening)

The teen is gone, all that's left is ( ⚠️⚠️warning this story is going to get dark because violence is dark and this story focuses on violence. The rest of this post is going to be dark and gory. You have been warned⚠️⚠️) an arm twitching on the ground with a giant butterfly tearing at flesh. (Gross)

Dim gets up (she was sitting on a bench) obviously freaking out and tries to back away from the maneating bug when it turns to her. It looks just like the bugs from her dream. She trips and falls stabbing her hand on a trimmed branch from the cherry blossom tree (time to start my favorite part of this brain baby :D )

The butterfly (will probably have them called slaughterbugs once society starts to kinda function again) launches itself towards her and she bats it off with the branch.

She stands up and runs. Just fucking books it. Branch in hand she turns around and the butterfly is fluttering ominously behind her (I don't know why but 'fluttering' and 'ominous' in the same sentence makes me ridiculous happy)

She backs up into another tree (still deciding if itshould be another cherry blossom tree or not) and instinct takes over. Her muscles move with practices ease for something she only saw herself do in her dream. She uses the branch like a fucking sword (she's a bad bitch of course I give her a damn sword) and just shanks the butterfly-of-doom straight through its head.

"Wait!", I can hear you think, "how the fuck did she stab a giant bug with a stick? The exoskeleton has to be like super hard!" Well my lovely little person behind a screen, shush. For plot reasons the first monster is easy for everyone to kill one if they are capable of doing so. Half of the population was wiped out by the tutorial; having them fall to ridiculous nerfed monsters is part of the devastating truth of their new world :D

The bug is dead and Dim collapses against the tree and sinks until she's sitting on the ground. A screen appears in front of her [Congratulations, player! You have completed the tutorial! Please wait while we develop your character based on your actions :) NOTE: YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE TO ATTACKS WHILE YOU WAIT. ANY ACTIONS AFTER THIS MESSAGE WILL NOT COUNT TOWARDS YOUR CHARACTER.]

Dim is very confused, for obvious reasons. She sees other bugs around the park eating the other people. She just finished a panic attack and was not ready for another one, but oh well here it is!

"Damn, I can't decide whether or not you changed Dim."

Random ass voice scares the living shit out of her, and she grasps the necklace (she's been grabbing it as a nervous habit ever since she woke up. The only thing she remembers, could you blame her for getting attached to it?)

The voice is now muffled and very grumpy. Her hand grows hot as her face pales. Suddenly something is pushing its way out of her grasp as a sphere of what will eventually be known as magic surrounds her. The necklace that used to be a jumble of rings is now shaped like an eye and is looking right at her while it floats.

"Ow"

Yeah no Dim doesn't respond to that, her eyes focus on the sphere around her as she realizes that the giant bugs can't get it. They just burn on contact. She now takes the time to freak the fuck out, just to get it out of her system.

"You haven't changed a bit, Dim."

The eye almost seems fond as she finishes her little panic attack (did the eye help coach her through it? Maybe/maybe not i haven't decided yet) it then tells her that it fell asleep after they saved her and her friends from the other world. They all arrived here at different times because it couldn't get the spell perfect when it had to rush in order to save them from the worse ~something~ she was the only one that wasn't dead, but she was really fuxking badly hurt. Hence the coma to let her heal. The eye didn't know that science was as advanced as it is in this world so it panicked and shut off.

"You didn't write the note?"

"What note?"

"..."

"What fucking note, Dim."

BEEP BEEP BEEP

Suddenly the screen is in front of her again

[Congratulations on surviving after the tutorial! All of the creatures you have destroyed will now be turned into skill points! NOTE: SKILL POINTS WILL ONLY BE ACCESSIBLE IN SHELTERS AND NEUTRAL ZONES. Your character has been decided! Welcome to the game, Dryad knight Dim!]

(Okay okay, what the fuck right? Basically how the system decides your class and race, i.e. dryad or giant, is by what you use to defend yourself and how you use it. Dim used a tree branch like a sword, so dryad knight. For those who don't know dryads are tree spirits from Greek mythos)

Suddenly Dim is in a FUCK TONNE of pain. Like her skulls being torn apart pain. Like lazers searing her skin pain. It's fun for me, not for her.

And now she looks like she does it the top to images on the picture. Except a lot bloodier because theose just grew out of her (also no flowers. Those take a while to grow and if I make this a comic I want some cool symbolism with them like the new world blooms or some sappy shit like that)

Suddenly (i love that wors if you couldn't tell) the bark from the tree behind her breaks and starts to grow around her. Yep. Wooden armor. Except it's not! (Duh duh DUH!!) The wood heats up like it's burning and all of the little buggies hiding in and on it come out just to fucking melt instantly and become engraved in the armor. It's wood, but it's not wood. Eh, who cares Dim is now clothed.

The branch she had does the same thing except it sharpens into a sword with a little cherry blossom where the hilt meets the hand guard. A little charm hangs at the bottom of it. An eyeball.

"Well, at least you look like you did when you started out."

"What."

Yeah if I make this a comic expect these two to banter and just lighten the mood at the end of every chapter. (If I make this a webtoon comic it'd be at the end of every episode I guess)

Anyway, it's almost 12 am and I have school in the morning. Goodnight!
