#Merlin is so kind and sweet and loyal

[thefabledpheasant]

One of my favorite merthur scenes is Merlin’s “I didn’t want you to feel that you were alone” and it’s so beautiful for so many reasons, but what I don’t see ever mentioned is the moments right after Arthur opens the doors. Merlin doesn’t look at Arthur or give any indication he’s awake until he says Merlin’s name.

I think it’s so special because he’s giving Arthur the choice of what he wants to do. He can leave Merlin there and be alone or he can ‘wake him up’ and have a friend. He knows Arthur might not want to engage with anyone after an entire night spent with his deceased father. It’s a beautiful, understated act of consideration, love, and empathy.

HL Boys reactions to a heartbroken F!MC

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Listen I ain't gonna lie I broke up with my boyfriend weekend before Valentines day and I just wanted to indulge in some fantasy comfort from my current obsession

I've never dabbled in this kind of writing so I'm sorry for any issues in the writing, please feel free to leave a constructive comment if you have one.

✨if there's enough wish for it I'll do a girls version ✨

pairings: Sebastian x F!MC, Ominis x F!MC, Garreth x F!MC

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sebastian Sallow

You were hiding the restricted section of the library; it was the only safe place away from the constant reminder that love was nowhere in your grasp. You wiped your eyes in the cuff of your robe as you sat curled up in the corner, it was Valentines day but last night your partner, well Ex now, broke things off with you.

You couldn't exactly say you were surprised, you two had grown distant over the last few months, first they stopped showing up to your study dates claiming they was too tired from school and quidditch practice, then they stopped finding you at lunch in the Dark Arts Towers courtyard.

Luckily you had your friends you could eat with like Poppy and Natty, when they were busy you tended to join Ominis and Sebastian in the Undercroft as Sebastian would complain about your ex skipping out on you and Ominis would agree that it was no way to treat a lady.

When you had finally cornered your Ex asking them if they would like to go Hogsmeade for Valentines Day they just looked uncomfortable before taking you to bridge leading to lower Hogsmeade and began to break up with you.

“We just don’t have anything in common MC” they began “you're always running off on errands with either Poppy or Garreth and quite frankly I think you’re little too close to that Sallow friend of yours” they rested a hand on your arm as your eyes widened at what they were saying.

“Honestly MC…...I think its just better if we break up” and that was it, your world shattered underneath you and you went straight to the room of requirements so no one could see you fall apart.

And now you were here, sniffling in the restricted section feeling worthless when you heard the sound of the gate squeaking open, you held your breath frozen in shock horror at the thought of being caught like this.

“MC?” You recognized that voice, suddenly Sebastian undid his invisibility charm and crouched near you, he looked so worried.

“MC? Hey MC, what’s wrong? Did someone hurt you?” He placed a hand on your shoulder as he tried to look for any signs you were hurt.

You explain to him what happened, and his jaw tightened as he listens.

“That bastard” He growled under his breath.

He was mentally planning all the different ways he would make them eat their words for hurting you, on Valentines Day of all days! He moved in closer and held you as you sobbed a little

“They never deserved you MC” he said as you calmed down.

“Anyone would be lucky to have you as their girlfriend! You’re so loyal and kind to you’re friends, Hells! You go out of your way for people you don’t even know!” he pulled you back so he could look into your eyes.

“If they can’t see that then honestly MC, you’re the lucky one! Merlin’s beard if you were my girlfriend, I’d never disappoint you like they did!” his eyes held an intensity at his confession leaving you speechless and eyes wide.

“S-Sebastian…thank you” you mumbled as your cheeks turned hot.

He nodded as he started to think “MC will you be my Valentines? Platonically! if it’s too soon I just…. I can’t bear the thought of you alone and sad on a day like this.”

You looked into his deep brown eyes, your heart fluttering. You smile as you pull him closer.

“I’d be honoured Sebastian” and with that you close the gap between you two in passionate yet sweet kiss, after you pulled away Sebastian gave you the biggest toothiest grin and hugs you tight as you enjoy each other’s embrace.

The next day you couldn't help but notice that your Ex had mysteriously developed a significant limp, you turn to Sebastian with a questioning look, he simply winked and gave a mischievous smile as he wrapped an arm around you as he led you to class.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ominis Gaunt

The Undercroft was cold and silent, the perfect escape from the day that you honestly wish would end and never come again, it was Valentines Day, and all the other students were getting ready to go on dates, confess feelings and overall be happy and rub your misery in your face.

Ok that wasn’t fair it wasn’t the student’s fault that you got dumped on the romantic holiday, it was your now Ex’s fault. You were coming back from summoners court after a victory and was feeling pretty good about yourself.

Your ex was waiting by the main door for you, you went to hug them in greeting, but they just moved out of your grasp looking pained and asked if you could go somewhere private to talk, looking back you shouldn’t have been surprised, they had been avoiding you for months spending more time with their friends or just not inviting you out anymore.

Your friends had been trying to convince you that it might just be exam stress and to try not to worry, Imelda even offered to get your mind off things by giving you flying lessons. Sebastian and Ominis took to hanging out with you on your own errands, so you didn’t feel alone, it had actually been Ominis’ suggestion.

Your Ex took you to the greenhouse where they begin their little speech,

“Look MC we just aren’t compatible, we can never agree on what to do or even what we talk about.” They ran a hand through their hair in frustration.

“All you do is talk about your friends and when I try to speak you look completely uninterested and like you’d rather talk about Ominis like he’s god’s gift, so I’m done, its over” they didn’t even stay long enough for you to respond.

You acted on instinct after that, you just started walking and didn’t stop until you found yourself in the Undercroft and fell to your knees before the tears began and that’s where you remained until now. Your eyes red and puffy, your mouth dehydrated and your head pounding as you absent mindedly fiddled with a nearby pebble.

You almost didn’t notice the sound of someone entering, you looked up in time to see it was Ominis, you felt a little relief he couldn’t see your dishevelled state. You remained silent as he entered, wand guiding him.

“Hello? Sebastian? MC? I can hear whichever one of you breathing.” He stated turning, his wand scanning for her presence.

You bit your lip as you debated if you trusted your voice enough to call out for him as he made his way to your general position.

“Sebastian, I swear to Circe if you plan on jumping out at me I wi- “

"Its me Ominis!” you cringed at the sound of your croaky voice.

His face instantly melted into one of worry as he followed the direction of your voice sitting not too far from where you were, he looked a little panicked as he spoke.

“MC? What happened? Why are you hiding down here?” he reached out for you concerned.

You guided him to where you were sat as you explained what happened, his face unreadable as you went on before finally stopping you.

“They’re the biggest prat for breaking your heart” he spoke dangerously calm, his blank stare darkening.

“I can talk to Professor Black and have him give them a lifetimes worth of detention if you’d like?” he offered, a hint of a dark chuckled played on his lips.

You shook your head as the ghost of a giggle left your lips “its fine Ominis, truly they’re not worth it.”

“But you are MC, you’re worth so much” he interrupted earnestly.

“They’re blinder than I am if they can’t see they just lost the most valuable person in this school.” He felt for your hand before grasping it firmly “if I held your heart, I would cherish it as if it was the rarest gem in the world.”

You felt your breath catch in your throat and before you could stop yourself you engulfed the blind boy in a hug, he snaked his arms around your waist whispering softly into your ear.

“Even if its platonically I would cherish being your Valentines if you’d have me.”

You angled his face to meet yours in a tender soft kiss as a tear rolled down your cheek.

“I couldn’t think of anyone better to give my fragile heart to Ominis.”

You heard a rumour the next morning that snakes had inexplicably found themselves in your Exes pillows last night and gave them such a freight they refuse to enter the bedrooms, you went to ask Ominis about such a strange event and he just gave you a soft knowing smile as he acted shocked at the news before kissing your hand as you lead him to breakfast.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Garreth Weasley

Is this really what you were reduced to? Hiding in a supply cupboard because the sound of others’ giddiness was starting to grate your nerves, it wasn’t the girl’s fault for your mood, but they weren’t helping either, you sighed leaning against the cauldrons.

You were going to meet your partner, well Ex now you supposed in the Great Hall for lunch but was surprised to find them waiting outside of potion class for you, they shuffled you into this cupboard asking to talk, instead of having compliments and kisses showered over you like you had hoped they instead five simple words.

“I want to break up.”

You nearly popped your eyes out of your skull with how wide your eyes went, you nearly thought, hoped even it was some cruel Valentines prank but no they were serious.

“Look this isn’t easy but I just don’t want this…I don't want a future with you, I’m sorry”.

They gave you an awkward pat on the arm before leaving you there dumbfounded, at first you giggled, then laughed, then the tears started falling as you laughed and sobbed like a women gone mad.

You eventually calmed down as you sat there, you felt like there was no point in leaving, you were a state and didn’t feel like being reminded of the pain in your chest, as you wallowed in the dark cupboard the door suddenly flew open, and you looked like a deer in headlights as Garreth stared down at you confused.

“MC? Why are you in the storage cupboard?”

You couldn’t help it, you let out a whimper as the tears started falling again.

“Oh shit! I’m sorry MC! For whatever I did I’m sorry please don’t cry!”

He panicked as he held you rubbing your back, you could hear the panic beat of his heart as he scrambled to fit inside the cupboard and close the door, it was a tight squeeze and you had ended up in his lap in the chaos, you couldn’t help but laugh as Garreth went red.

“It’s not you Garreth” you sniffed as you shifted so you were facing him.

You explained to him everything and why you were still in here crying, Garreth’s reactions went from concern, shock, disgust and finally a smile as he grinned down at you, an idea popping into his mind.

“Don’t worry about losers like them MC, they clearly can’t handle someone as great as you! And I know exactly what they need” he winked as you blushed at the enthusiasm.

“Well, I don’t have a Valentines either and I’d love to take you Hogsmeade for a butterbeer, we can go as friends if a date is too much” he looked down at you in his arms hopeful.

You couldn’t stop yourself and started laughing again and snuggled into his chest.

“I’d love to go as a date Garreth.”

His grinned somehow widened as he scooped you into a kiss, it was enthusiastic with a hint desperate relief before he pulled away and kissed away the few stray tears that fell from your eyes before carrying you out the cupboard, you squealed as he carried you to the corridor before letting you down and grabbing your hand “let’s get going MC!”

You didn’t see your Ex until dinner time the next evening, they were completely bald! You gawped as you turned to Garreth who simply laughed.

“Looks like someone slipped a hair loss potion in their shampoo, what a shame ey MC” he nudged you as the two of you chuckled amongst yourselves.

[shadowtriovibes]

Hey! Could i please get #3 and #6 with sebastian and fem Hufflepuff reader? 😊

"i've loved you since the moment i first laid my eyes on you." "are you really so oblivious?” [sebastian x hufflepuff!mc]

—

“Come on!” you hiss. “Quickly!”

You glance around nervously as you tug open the wooden gate to the Kneazle pen behind the Beasts classroom. It’s nearly midnight on Christmas Eve, and you hope that Professor Howin is already fast asleep – or better yet, down in Hogsmeade with the rest of the professors enjoying a well-deserved night off.

“I’m coming,” Sebastian whispers back. “Merlin’s beard, you’re impatient.”

“I don’t want to get caught,” you remind Sebastian as he ducks inside the pen. “We’re not supposed to be leaving the castle at all, and I don’t intend on spending the rest of the holidays in detention.”

The first half of your sixth year had practically flown by. You know that when classes resume in early January, you and your classmates will have no choice but to focus intently on your end-of-year exams to earn spots in N.E.W.T.-level classes for your final year. But for now, while most of Hogwarts’ student body is off spending time with their loved ones for the winter holidays, you and Sebastian can still get up to a bit of mischief while having free roam of the castle – and perhaps its grounds, despite Professor Weasley’s insistence that everyone remain inside.

“So, who’s the lucky Beast getting a house call from the ‘Hero of Hogwarts’ this fine evening?” Sebastian asks teasingly. “I can tell you’ve been worried sick about one of these little buggers.”

“It’s Penelope,” you sigh. “Since Poppy’s gone to visit her Gran for the holidays, I promised I’d check on her and the rest of the Kneazles. She’s seemed a bit down lately.”

“You Hufflepuffs,” Sebastian laughs softly. “Loyal to a fault, you are.”

Inside the pen, half a dozen Kneazles are curled up together in a warm, furry pile underneath an overhang that protects them from snowfall during the winter. You spot Penelope right in the very middle, and when you extend your hand with a Beast treat in it, she slowly blinks her eyes open and wrinkles her nose.

“Hello, Miss Penelope,” you croon. “I’m so sorry I’m not Poppy, but I wanted to come visit you, sweet girl.”

Sebastian watches with a fond smile as you plop onto the snow-covered ground and murmur soft, reassuring words to the sleepy-looking Kneazle. She accepts your treat (and several more) and lets you brush out her coat before she rests her head sadly in your lap.

“Poor thing,” Sebastian murmurs.

“I think she misses her friend,” you say softly. “I know how that feels.”

“Oh?” he asks curiously. “Are you feeling glum that Poppy’s away?”

“Poppy, Ominis, Natty… it’s a lonely time,” you admit. “Especially in our common room. It’s just me and a few second-years who are already friends with each other, so I’ve been feeling a bit isolated.”

“Why didn’t you say anything?” Sebastian asks as he takes a seat on the ground next to you.

You shrug. “There are more Slytherins around, and I figured you were enjoying spending some time with your housemates,” you mumble.

“They’re not nearly as important to me as you are,” he says, nudging his shoulder against yours.

You blush, hoping he won’t notice in the semi-darkness.

“I mean it,” he insists, distractedly stroking his fingers through Penelope’s fur. “If you’re lonely, come spend time with me in the Slytherin common room. Or I can come to you, whatever you prefer. But we’ve got another week until the start of term and you shouldn’t spend it moping about like a lost mooncalf.”

You scoff and roll your eyes. “I’m not moping. Please, don’t worry about me.”

“Ah, I see how it is,” he teases. “So you can be loyal and put everyone else first because you’re the Hufflepuff, but heaven forbid I do the same…”

You giggle despite yourself and lean against his side, resting your head on his warm shoulder.

“You’re too kind to me, Sebastian Sallow,” you tell him. “Maybe you should be in Hufflepuff.”

He snorts. “No, I’m afraid the Sorting Hat certainly made the correct choice.”

“I’m not convinced,” you continue. “You’re loyal, you’re dedicated, you always work so hard…”

“I’m also ambitious, independent, and ‘far too clever for my own good,’” he retorts, making a face on that last part as if it’s been told to him one too many times.

“Then why are you so good to me, hmm?” you ask, your voice barely above a whisper so you don’t shatter the delicate tension thrumming between the two of you.

“Simply put, it’s because I've loved you since the moment I first laid my eyes on you,” Sebastian tells you.

Your hands go still at Penelope’s side, and she perks her head up curiously.

“Wh-what?” you stutter.

“I’m in love with you,” Sebastian tells you, the words rolling off his tongue as if he’s simply telling you about the weather. “Have been for ages. Blimey, are you really so oblivious?”

“B-but – but you never–” you stammer, and instead of letting you work yourself into a temper, Sebastian quickly leans in and presses his lips to yours.

As soon as you realize he’s kissing you, you melt against his side. The cold winter winds skimming across the lake are making you both shiver, but neither of you cares.

Sebastian loves you, you think. There’s no holiday gift you could wake up to tomorrow that would be better than this.

[catharticdaydream]

i'll forever be sad about how the writers just completely ruined gwen's character narrative the moment she became queen. the whole reason why arthur loved her- why everyone loved her- was because though she was sweet, loyal, and kind, she was also outspoken, brave, and intelligent. she was morgana's best friend. she was merlin's closest confidant. i so wish we had gotten to see her reaction to morgana's betrayal more. she deserved to know about merlin's magic! it was like the moment she became queen her role in the story was over and she no longer needed to be a person. becoming queen should have been this super triumphant final arc to her character, but not the end of her arc!!!! im so upset!!!! i love gwen so much and her character deserved so much better!!!!!!

[heavy-is-the-crown-if]

The game will be rated 18+ for strong languages, heavy themes, and the possible presence of explicit sexual content.

Heavy is the crown...

That's the first thing Merlin said to you after you woke up in their tower (right after he told you that you were definitely not what he expected but that “we'd deal with it.” But how much weight can a bruised ego carry in the face of the survival of a Kingdom?)

For generations, your family has been in charge of protecting the Sword of Light, and like every 1st born of your generation, it's up to you to pass it on to its true owner.

And here you are, with Clarent, the twin blade of excalibur in your hands. And according to Merlin that's enough to send you on a quest.

You must at all costs reunite the knights of the round table, find Arthur and Morgana and save Camelot (you must also defeat Uther Pendragon, but we'll see about that later...)

Anyway, Merlin has assured you that they will accompany you. They're a powerful sorcerer, right? So what could go wrong?

Arthur Pendragon/Le Fay (The Young Dragon) He/Him

Everyone portrays the young king of Camelot as fair, loyal and kind, and while your family is no stranger to complimenting the young dragon, they know there is more to him than this bright side. Dark whispers also follow the discussion about the young king among your own. And if every coin has two sides, one can only wonder which one you will meet.

Physical traits will be up to the players.

Morgana Pendragon/Le Fay (The Snake Without Wings/The Elementalist) She/They

You can’t help it. Too many times Morgana has been portrayed as the villain of the story. Envious of her half-brother and dedicated to the destruction of Camelot. Yet the young woman in front of you seems far from this adjectives. She always seems surprised when someone shows her affection as if she wasn’t expecting it. Is it a manipulation game? Will you manage to get rid of the idea you made of her during your apprenticeship?

Physical traits will be up to the players.

Merlin (The Demon Seed/The Keeper of Time and Pages.) They/Them

It is with reverence and wonder that the members of your family talk about their encounter with the wizard. Yours was rather chaotic. As for the reverence, it is Merlin who reserves it for you and not the other way around, as the young man is so sure of your success. But young man is not the right word, the half demon is old and sadness and fatigue are hidden behind their joyful smile. Two factors that impact their magic for their greatest horror as for yours. Can you really believe them when they whisper to you that everything will be alright.

Physical traits will be up to the players.

Guinevere (The Carmelite Amazon.) She/Her

You were betrayed. The Queen of May? That little young woman who looks more like a storm, really? Isn't Guinevere supposed to be sweet and shy? How could things have gone so different?! Not afraid to say what's on her mind loud and clear, wielding a sword with as much or more acuity than any man, Guinevere is the opposite of everything you've been romanticized about her. Some might even say that she is scarier than Morgana. Her hand is never far from her blade when you speak with Arthur. Is she afraid you will insult the future King? Her future King? Are you supposed to be a matchmaker? Or will things take another turn with the Carmelid Amazon.

Physical traits will be up to the players.

Lucan/Lucia (The Twins' Shadow/The Royal Butler/Maid.) He/Him or She/Her

You’re not gonna lie, you had to rack your brain to remember them.  A shame considering they are one of Arthur’s first supporters around the round table. Brother of Bedivère, loyal to the death, they always have a kind word for you. Words they say to you in a voice as sweet as honey. But is their attention to you due to what you are or who you are? And why does the possibility that their kindness is only granted to you because of the sword you bear for the heir make your heart ache?

Physical traits will be up to the players.

Choice of Script Demo (last update 5/14/2023)

#Interactif fiction #heavy is the crown #teaser demo #choiceofscript #twine

[weirdrandomtina]

My favourite cartoon ships 2.0!

1. Broppy, Branch and Queen Poppy, Trolls

Such an adorable couple with highly entertaining interactions, anything from bickering to heartfelt encouragement.  Great yin and yang with very opposite yet very compatible personalities.  These two truly have changed each other’s lives for the better, bring out the best in each other, and would do anything for each other - you can’t have one without the other.  I’m not much into reading fanfics in general, but have read all kinds of Broppy ones!  Hopefully we’ll get another special and series!

2. Elixie, Eli Shane and Trixie Sting, Slugterra

Close friends who are always there for each other, loyal teammates who work really well together, who both pester and support one another.  Cute interactions that, to me, give the vibe that they could become more than friends in the future.  I don’t know, there’s just something about them that catches my attention, so many options for fanfics!

3. Embade (not sure if there’s a ship name for them yet), Wade Ripple and Ember Lumen, Elemental

About as opposite as two people can be!  I fell in love with these two immediately - their dynamic is highly entertaining, being fire and water they have unique interactions no other couple could have, their dance scene / first touch gives me butterflies, their first date is the cutest thing ever, and I like how it wasn’t ‘love at first sight’ - they got to know each other first, then fell in love, and they really improved each other’s lives.

4. The Love Square (Adrinette, Ladynoir, Marichat, Ladrien), Adrien Agreste / Chat Noir and Marinette Dupain-Cheng / Ladybug, Miraculous Ladybug

Four ships in one, so lots of options for different fun stories between the characters!  I’ve read a few neat fan-comics of them, their varying dynamics are always interesting.  This ship also moved down my favourites list, because I personally thought their ‘just friends’ status dragged on too long in canon.

5. Simonette, Simon Seville and Jeanette Miller, ALVINNN!!!

Close friends who have similar hobbies and compatible personalities, I love the episodes where they interact, especially helping each other on projects or just hanging out.  They would make an adorable couple, I’d love to see them on a sweet little date.  I’m not a huge fan of the CGI movies, but I watch Chipwrecked solely for their interactions.

6. Guep (no solid decent ship name for them so I’m going with this), Guy and Eep Crood, The Croods

I love the fact that she’s stronger and bigger than him, and far from a typical girly girl, it makes a unique and unconventional couple.  Also, they take care of each other, it’s never one-sided (the macho guy rescuing the dainty damsel, or the powerful woman rescuing the weak guy).

7. Eugunzel, Eugene Fitzherbert and Princess Rapunzel, Tangled

Tons of excellent interactions in the series, a healthy relationship and another couple who has given each other better lives.  She’s not the typical dependent princess, but not an overly powerful female either, just the perfect balance.  And like Guep, he rescues her, and she rescues him; both have strengths and weaknesses, making them a very realistic pair.

8. Hiccstrid, Hiccup Haddock and Astrid Hofferson, How To Train Your Dragon

Another couple where she’s the stronger one.  I like their teamwork and interactions - even though she’s much bolder than him, she respects his leadership and is loyal to him.  At the same time, he respects her and is open to her suggestions.

9. Jilaire, Jim Lake Jr. and Claire Nunez, Trollhunters

Their development from barely friends to a close couple was natural and realistic.  There is literally nothing these two wouldn’t do for each other (Jim risking his life and breaking the law to save Claire’s brother, Claire fully accepting Jim no matter what physical form he’s in)

10. Snowlin, Prince Merlin and Princess Snow White, Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarves

Excellent messages about true beauty.  The rare movie relationship where the main female does not represent ideal beauty standards, yet still ends up in a happy relationship.  These two learned to truly love each other for who they are on the inside, regardless of their appearance, and will surely stick by each other’s sides no matter what.

[the-pen-pot]

Peregrinate - to travel or wander from place to place.

Gwaine didn't need much. A bit of coin in his pocket and some ale in his belly was enough to inspire contentment. All the other things people tended to seek – a home, friends, lovers who stayed longer than one night, a family – they held little interest for him. They tied him down. He'd rather be free and easy, without a responsibility in the world. That way when his life went to shit, there was no one to blame but himself.

He hadn't started out like that, of course. No one did. He'd been a kid once, with dreams and ideals. He'd thought of being a knight under the king's banner. He'd known it was his calling. Right up until the day it turned out that a knight should be loyal, but a king need not bother.

His pa died in a battle he should never have fought, and he and his ma were left with nothing. He didn't blame his mother for following her love to the grave. He would have done the same, if all he had left to keep him in the world was a life of poverty and a son full of rage.

Leaving was the easiest choice. It didn't matter where he was or what was happening, he had learned to go before he wore out his welcome. He wandered – peregrinated – he remembered that from his tutors. After all, only commoners walked places. A lord, even a disgraced one with no bloody horse, would not stoop to mere walking.

He had to admit it sounded better in his head. It sounded purposeful. Better than the truth, anyway, which was that he fell from one tavern to the next, either charming or punching anyone who took offence at his presence.

That was how he ended up in a brawl, a knife wedged in his thigh and hurting like the blazes. That was how he came 'round later to a sweet, dark-haired lad with the brightest smile he'd ever seen, and a blond pillock who swung a sword as easy as if it were breathing.

In his defence, Gwaine had always given Camelot a wide berth. It was a troubled land, from all that he'd heard, so he could forgive himself for not immediately recognising Prince Arthur. Still, just because he didn't know his precise name or title didn't mean he couldn't read the breeding in him. He was a noble through-and-through, with all the arrogance that went with it.

If not for Merlin, he would probably have limped away there and then. He'd never have gone to Camelot. He'd certainly never have gone back once he left the first time, eager to get away before the friendship could lose its shine.

If not for Merlin, he'd not have had this life, and it would have been a crying shame.

These days, he was a knight on his own terms, not because of the blue in his blood, but because he was good with a sword. He had friends who joked and smiled and teased, but always with a fondness that robbed their words of any sharpness.

Leon was gracious, and Gwaine had never met a more steadfast man. Elyan was always there to talk to and never held any judgement for the stupid mistakes Gwaine made, even now. Lancelot's compassion put them all to shame, yet he never made them feel bad for their petty, human thoughts. He made them better men, of that Gwaine was certain. Percival was a wonder. He could probably stop a charging bull with his bare hands, but Gwaine had never known a more gentle soul.

They'd die for each other. He just hoped it never came to that.

He didn't think it would. For all that he was a prat, Arthur was one of the few good royals Gwaine had ever met. A man had to dig deep to reveal his kindness – because that bastard father of his had taught him all the callous cruelty that came with power – but it was there. All it needed was someone to let him know, in all the subtle little ways, that compassion was a strength, not a weakness, and that being a decent human being wouldn't make him a bad king.

That was Merlin's job. Well, that and keeping the rest of them on their toes. He could have been like one of the breathless pages, chasing after the knights with hero worship in his eyes. He could have been an obsequious little toad, always looking to ingratiate himself to his so-called superiors. Thank the gods that he was anything but.

He poked holes in Arthur's ego and made sure none of them ever got too big for their britches. He pointed out when any single one of them was being a fool, often with a glimmer of absolute glee.

He reminded them that, underneath all the trappings of rank, they were men at heart, all made of the same stuff and all of equal value.

Gwaine had spent years travelling the realms and calling it freedom, ignoring the loneliness that consumed him like rot. Now, he had friends who were as good as any family. They knew him. Not just the jokey facade he put on to please the world, but what lay underneath. He no longer had to roam, looking for something and denying it all the while.

He'd found home, and it wasn't a place like he'd always believed. It was the people who proudly claimed him as theirs, the bad bits, as well as the good.

10 Characters, 10 Fandoms more

Oh no @pinayelf has tagged me again so I'll have to do another set! :"(

(thank you Ellie! I already did one and I was crying because I left out characters, here it is if you or anyone wants to read it)

Tagging: @aimee-maroux @everythingispoetry @owlask @raflesia65 @morgandarcyarts @sapphireangelbunny @idolsgf @zenstrike @rowanisawriter and YOU!

1. Sir Gawain

We stan a bi king (in the poem he kisses the Lord THRICE. Out of his own will. In another he kisses Lancelot. On his lips.). I love Gawain in any declination, Arthurian cycle, medieval poems, Merlin and the latest movie. I put Dave Patel because visually it's the one that I like the most, but give me a Gawain and I'll like him.

2. Boromir - Lord of the Rings

I spent half my life hating him, then I REALISED. And now he's my sweet pea the apple of my eyes I love him and I'll defend him. Movie kinda did him dirty, but AAAAAH.

3. Beatrice - Much Ado About Nothing

Fiercely loyal sarcastic queen who can and will stand up to herself. I love her. Absolutely flawless.

4. Chrisjen Avasarala - The Expanse

She's everything and I love her more than words can say. Old professional lady cursing like a sailor and speaking her mind clearly. Was very torn between putting her or Ripley in the first batch, but Ripley got precedence out of seniority of my obsession. I couldn't suggest you (anyone you are reading) this show enough, and she is one of the big reasons (she and Bobbie. I love Bobbie <3).

5. Evie Carnahan - the Mummy

She's everything and I will fight for her.

6. Kronk - Emperor's New Groove

I quote this movie more than it would be healthy to do. Yzma comes a close second but it's him.

7. Madalena - Galavant

I stood there 10 minutes trying to decide whether to put her or King Richard. But this single scene was the one that made me fall in love with the show and how it turns tropes around and so yeah. This list was short of villains, furthermore and she is everything, go slay, queen.

8. Jasper Fahey - Grishaverse

As previously stated, you give me a chaotic blorbo with a flair for theatrics and I'm yours forever.

(another fave is Nikolaj, but here goes Jasper because you know. Less tsarism involved.)

9. Martha Jones - Doctor Who

Martha deserved so much better than what the show and the fandom gave her. She's a great character, she's strong and compassionate and kind and honestly she did it right in leaving the Doctor (here's a video essay of a person better informed than me). I am so sorry, but I don't like Rose all that much, particularly in the season with Tennant and I'm on the Justice for Martha squad.

10. Korra - Avatar: the Legend of Korra

I know her show has flaws. But her as a character IS NOT.

Again, I needed to have figures to deconstruct the trope of "strong girl" and she's it. I love her arc and how she needs to deconstruct herself to proceed.

(I love also Tenzin, Tenzin is my favourite and my love, but his character arc is to me slightly less compelling)

(don't ask me to choose just ONE character from ATLA, I can't, I'll stay stuck for two hours trying to decide whom I like best and end up running away screaming because I can't.)

On a book level I must add: Margarita from Master and Margarita. That book is my obsession and the reason I ended up studying russian literature and language. -even if Bulgakov was actually Ukrainian but guess how many people told me so and I won't start here on the subject)

Leon x George lol

send me merlin ships

hilarious. okay. george, oh, george. i could see george having a very kind of young-feeling infatuation with leon, especially due to the way leon is characterised, as this incredibly loyal and upstanding person, the one you can aways rely on. (i really didn't think i was going to have much to say about this, but as i'm writing it out....maybe there's something there). it doesn't necessarily have to be romantic, but i think the sheer weight of it would thread the line of that and platonic. leon is nothing if not kind, their interactions would largely be very sweet and respectful in a casual sort of way. again, i don't really see much romance in it exactly. i do see leon as mostly straight, as well as on the asexual spectrum, so there really isn't much more i can say. but, overall, i think it could be cute, though mostly friendly.

tiers: F-S; rating: 0-100

tier: E

overall rating: 20

“Oh, Merlin, tell me, does THE RUNAWAY get what she deserves?” She is NEUTRAL & CLOSED to finding out. 

— she walks through the world as ;

name → corin hale pronouns → she/her identification → cis-female year of birth → september 1960 - september 1961 face claim → odeya rush blood status → muggle (werewolf) sexual orientation → up to roleplayer occupation → petty criminal future information → n/a

— she is best described as ;

A PUNCH to the FACE, a LIONHEARTED woman with ATTITUDE, BRIMMING with CONFIDENCE, STRONG & STURDY. She’s as LOYAL as they come, the kind of person to give you their last COIN, a FRIENDLY face in a crowd and a SMILE that could break a HEART. TOUGH and worn like LEATHER. She’s SWEET like buttered popcorn & as DEADLY as a well aimed THROWING KNIFE.

— her story starts with ;

TW: death, blood, violence

Corin Hale’s life hasn’t ever been easy, but over the past three years it’s gotten even harder. Her life before she was bitten was relatively normal, though it has been so long the details Corin now finds fuzzy. Growing up in Radlett just outside of London, she was once the eldest daughter of Atai and Ekaterina Hale. A school teacher and a lawyer, they had wealth and Corin once wanted for nothing. It was the classic tale of a girl from North London, Friday night dinner, trips to the synagogue and playing second parent to her two younger sisters. She would frog march to Haberdashers' Girls' School, while her parents laughed. The world was at Corin’s feet and she rose each day with the knowledge that fate had been kind to her and given who she was, she could be anything she wanted. At seven years old what Corin wanted to do was be in the theatre. A larger than life character, she would organise her toys and her sisters to watch her perform, escaping to far off worlds where she’d transport them. All she ever wanted was to be up there with the greats. and it was this desire that led her parents to take them one evening after school to The Globe Theatre to watch a performance. Wide eyed, Corin was in her element, sitting on her father’s shoulders, looking intently at the stage as Much Ado About Nothing played out. 

When the performance concluded, Corin begged her parents to let her meet the cast and get her program signed. But with her sisters tiring, the answer was no, but Corin had other ideas. Never one to listen to things her elders said, Corin ducked past her parents in the crowd, made her way back to the stage and waited, program in hand. She waited a long while, the cold evening air wrapping its arms around her. Eventually the cast came out and the excitement hit. Hugging her programme she watched them leave. The excitement faded and Corin realised she was alone. She knew London well enough, despite being so young she had always been resourceful and began the walk to Blackfriars where she could explain to someone that she’d gotten lost. Corin hadn’t made it far away from the theatre when fate intervened. It was a woman. At first anyway, who cornered her and asked if she was lost. Without thinking Corin told her of her plan to get back to Radlett and the woman offered to help. Taking her hand, they walked towards the station, until Corin was pulled into an alleyway and the woman was replaced with a wolf. Biting down hard on Corin’s shoulder, she felt the blood pool down her body and her life flash before her eyes. But before the wolf could continue to ravage her, it licked her shoulder and ran off into the night. 

The screams attracted the attention of a couple who took her to the hospital and her parents were called. The next few days were a blur for Corin, in a trace due to the pain and home from school due to the attack. The night of the first full moon was where everything came into focus. One moment she was herself, the next she was an animal, running through the streets of Radlett howling at the moon. When she awoke she was in a park, covered in grass and mud, with every memory of where she’d been and frightened this was now her life. Hysterically she told her parents and begged them to try and understand but they didn’t believe her until it was too late. Trying to get outside of her house to transform, Corin watched in horror as her father held her back. She turned, he was holding on to her. Then suddenly he wasn’t and she’d escaped through the patio door. Only small due to her age, Corin wasn’t able to fully attack him, but when she returned home she found him clawed to pieces and the carpet covered in blood. Her parents tried desperately to help. They took her to hospitals but no one believed them. On full moons they chained her up in the garage where no one would see. She was a schoolgirl by day and a monster by night. Her life wasn’t normal. At night she would listen to her parents argue and cry while her sisters hugged each other in the doorway. Corin knew she was the issue and while she was there they’d never be safe. 

One day, she packed up her backpack with all her belongings. Took it to school and left during lunchtime, with one thought in mind. Finding the wolf who had bitten her. She got by by stealing things, pick-pocketing and checking herself into hostels to avoid being on the streets before KAMALI SKENDER [mother] found her. Kamali ran Le Cirque Des Rêves, a travelling circus that was making its way round Europe and was stopping off in London for the summer. Aside from the strange woman who changed her, Kamali was the only werewolf that Corin had ever met and when she asked her to join the circus Corin agreed. Kamali became like a mother to Corin, teaching her everything she needed to know about the world she now belonged to and giving her a home. Corin didn’t think she’d ever find happiness after the bite, but with Kamali and then a few weeks later when SILAS CRUMP [father] joined the circus, she believed her life could be different. Time seemed to move differently for them. They became a family, performing in wizarding districts around the world and spreading their joy. By the time they returned back to London, Corin was twenty-two. A woman and an esteemed member of the troupe that she hoped to one day help run with her parents. London was not how Corin had remembered it and she watched as her father changed in its presence. 

The once happy seemed darker and people whispered of dark wizards and cloak and dagger plans made by candle light. Feeling unwell after a performance, Corin walked back to their wagon to find her father frantically packing his belongings. Instantly her mind became sharp. Silas would never leave him and Kamali, something had happened and she wasn’t going to let him slip away without her help. Cornering him, Corin began packing her things and insisted he take her with him. He revealed everything to her, about his past, his family before them, the death of his sister and the two sorcerers who had come to collect. The pair slept in inns, apperated daily and tried to blend in but eventually RABASTAN LESTRANGE [adversary] and BELLATRIX BLACK [adversary] caught up with them. It was a full moon in Nottingham and just before Corin could shift, she felt her body be swept up. Her father was gone and Corin was chained in a basement by a collar. Having taken the wolfsbane her father had brewed Corin knew her mind and knew something was wrong. Most of the time she was alone in the basement, occasionally brought food and drink by the gruesome pair or SEVERUS SNAPE [adversary]. They wanted access to the circus, to the creatures. They wanted to know everything about them but Corin wouldn’t say a single word. 

They used spells to try and make her talk, wicked magic that made every single part of her body scream out in pain. But Corin wouldn’t say a word. She was unsure how much time had passed before she saw the world again. They had stopped giving her wolfsbane a long time ago as punishment and were normally quite rigid with the checks until one night they weren’t. Severus had chained her up, but the chains hadn’t been changed in some time, worn by the nights spent pulling on them. When Corin transformed the chain broke from the wall and with the weight and power she now wielded it was nothing for her to break through Mr Mulpepper’s wooden basement door even with its enchanted locks. A rabid animal hungry for blood, Corin steamed through the streets, attacking anything in sight. ANDRESSA PARKINSON [victim], RODOLPHUS LESTRANGE [victim] and ROSALINE DAVIS [victim] were not known to her, faces in a crowd people in her way that were lucky enough to have people round them who could fight her off with their magic. When Corin came round on Hampstead Heath she had every memory of the night before, her life spent in the basement and her burning desire to find her family and get revenge. Now free, Corin hopes to learn everything she can about Bellatrix, Severus and Rabastan to make them pay for what they’ve done.

[merlinfic]

Hello! I am new to the Merlin fandom. I have been reading a lot of fiction these past few weeks but there is one trope I discovered in another fic that I can't seem to forget. My searches for something similar have been unsuccessful. In 'A Thunder In Our Hearts' by Nightfox, Merlin is the Dragonlord and Arthur eventually binds himself to the Druids and everyone who has magic. There is a sweet scene in the end where Arthur tells Merlin he is the one who is supposed to serve Merlin. And this got me thinking: are there any fics where Arthur serves Merlin in any way?

Extract from the fic to get an idea of what I am looking for:

"Don’t you know that I was made to serve you? All these years, my father had it twisted round. The House of Pendragon was created to serve the Dragonlords, we have done so for generations. It’s why we are called the “Chief Dragon”. We were first among your servitors. We were never meant to rule the Dragonlords, we were meant to be your fiercest protectors, your most loyal servitors.”

It doesn't have to be exactly like this. Just anything where Arthur serves Merlin in a way, like Merlin serves Arthur.

Kind regards,

Anon

Here’s the closest I could find for you!

Merlin Week 2022 Day 5: Free - Gwen and The Women of Camelot

I wasn't going to write another Merlin Week post, and Merlin Week is technically over, but after seeing some of the hateful posts fans used to write about Gwen, I wanted to show my appreciation for her again.

Gwen was the reason I didn't drop Merlin. After season 1, I'd become incredibly frustrated with the lack of progress in Merlin and Arthur's relationship, and how it seemed to evolve backwards as the power imbalance between them grew on both sides - Merlin's lies and good-natured manipulations kept increasing in frequency, while the trust and equality of treatment Arthur had initially shown Merlin all but disappeared until he began actively abusing his power. The lack of a magic reveal was infuriating as well, since I had expected it to occur early on in the series; when I learned it happened in the last episode I almost called it quits... until I watched The Once and Future Queen and decided I still had a good reason to finish the show, which was Queen Guinevere (and Arwen).

I honestly hadn't been paying attention to the episode, or the series in general at that point, but when Arthur kissed Gwen I knew they were it. I hadn't expected Arthur to ever become more than an idyllic hero, until he impulsively kissed Gwen and was no longer exclusively defined by his destiny and duties to Camelot. And I was so surprised and happy with how stable and healthy their relationship proved to be: no annoying breakups for the most part (4.05 doesn't truly count and, tbh, 4.09 is no conventional breakup), and no dating other people only to reunite in the last episode.

Gwen and Arthur were given a chance to grow and mature and I love them so much for it. I loved their relationship in season 4, how they became a normal couple. For the first time ever, a ship I genuinely loved was allowed to mature and become 'boring' and married; most other ships that get to develop onscreen and never really break up aren't particularly exciting or fantastical (Leslie and Ben from Parks & Rec are an example of this, though I adore them). However, despite Gwen's banishment and the Lancelot ordeal of season 4, and the lack of Gwen and Arwen in season 5, we know those two knew, trusted and shared many of the same values as each other and were equally committed and devoted to one another. Having this kind of paring in a series - one that is exciting and fairytale-like while also being so wholesome, mature, and normal - is truly unique. I admire this a lot about the show; most "mature" and consistent ships are not the main pairing, so I have a lot of love for Arwen and for the example they are of a healthy and strong relationship.

I also never expected to love Gwen so much when I started Merlin. Of all the characters, she had the best and most satisfying arc. I love that she grew and blossomed before our eyes, but, at the same time, never changed and remained loyal, honest, strong, optimistic, gentle, kind, compassionate, humble to the last. I love that she was sweet and conventionally feminine when most great female characters are badass fighters with attitude problems. Many of them also end up quite bitter and morally ambiguous in the end, but not Gwen.

Gwen was so normal and wonderful in a way that was human and achievable. She was a role model; she felt real, warm, and comforting to me. In a show that full of men, Gwen's growth surpassed all of theirs and she alone was enough for me not to choke on all that testosterone. I also love that her relationship with Arthur was good for her. It's true that Arthur failed her when he banished her, and their relationship put her at risk many times, but she grew so much with and from Arthur. He undeniably loved, trusted and grew from her, and would do anything for her as well, and that made her feel safer and confident in herself. She was his love interest but he put her first and their relationship was surprisingly equal. Arthur wasn't jealous or possessive, they talked (in 3.06, Arthur and Gwen openly discussed his engagement to Elena, in 4.09 he told Gwen not to kneel before him and let her explain her actions, they talked many times about his decisions as Prince/King, etc.), he listened and followed her opinion a lot too and stood up to her (to Uther in 1.03, 2.03, 3.07, 3.10, 5.03; to Agravaine, in 4.09 at least, to Merlin in 4.06 when he wasn't himself), he arranged picnics and breakfast in bed for her, gave her flowers, helped her brother and her friends, etc. I hate Gwen's banishment as much as any sane person, but, other than that, Arthur truly respected Gwen. I also love that Gwen had love interests before Arthur; it made her character, and her and Arthur's relationship, even realer and more balanced.

Lastly, I really love that Gwen became Queen. I hate Arthur's death, but her becoming Queen regnant, especially because Arthur chose her and wanted her to be his successor (how feminist of him), made a huge statement imo. I certainly hadn't expected Gwen (keep in mind I knew nothing of the Arthurian legends) to end up the most powerful person in Camelot. Here you have a normal woman - significantly a woman of color at that - usher in the Golden Age instead of Arthur. That was really cool. Gwen alone made the show enjoyable to me as a feminist (despite everything...). And some of the best characters in the show were women who only appeared in a few episodes. Truth be told, the show had great diversity of well-written female characters, but the writers chose not to do anything with them.

We had Princess Elena, sweet, kind, adorable, a bit unladylike, one of my personal favorites; Queen Annis, one of the few older women in the series, wise, strong, fair, and an admirable Queen; Lady Vivian, bratty, innocent, charming, honestly the female version of Arthur if he hadn't had his duties and friendships to ground him; Freya, sweet, loyal, beautiful, strong and tragic, had loved Merlin; Hunith, strong, compassionate, inspiring, brave, a leader, always fought for what was right and raised Merlin so well on her own; Ygraine, gentle and loving, loved her son and told him not to let the truth of her death hurt him; Princess Mithian, dutiful to her father and to her Kingdom, assertive, kind, strong, brave; Grunhilda, evil, but also endearing, hilarious, and refreshingly sexually empowered; Sefa, sweet, gentle, good, had only wanted to please her father; Mary, brave Mary who alone made the dangerous journey to Camelot to seek help for her village; Morgause, not a minor character, but the best female fighter, strong enough to beat Arthur, resourceful, knowledgeable, intelligent, had truly loved her sister; Isolde, loyal, optimistic, brave, empathetic, believed in the power of love; Alice, not a favorite but seemed like a good person; Lady Catrina, one of the most disgusting yet genial villains, so kudos for deceiving and embarrassing the hell out of Uther; Nimueh, she was right in some aspects and very wrong in others, but she had a lot of potential; Morgana, not a minor character, of course, the only one who could match Merlin in power, not an entirely unsympathetic villain, had genuinely loved her sister, Aithusa, and even Mordred.

[witchthewriter]

hello friend! hope you're having a good day today. it's been a while since i've asked for a matchup or anything so i thought i'd send over a refresher along w my ask, hope it helps.

ASK . level 6 ship for Merlin please (any maybe purely a platonic match for Stranger Things since you already gave me a romantic one??? if I can do that, no worries if not)

BASIC FAQ . he/they. panromantic. 18 still. pisces sun, aquarius moon, taurus rising. if you really want to know me, my saturn is in cancer, my uranus in pisces and my pluto in sagittarius.

PERSONALITY . by now, i think you know i don't actually shut up as soon as you get me talking, and for that i am at least kind of sorry. at least i'm academically smart? a menace by all means tho. may come off as a bit weird or cagey to strangers. escapist. middle child syndrome. stubborn. kinda clumsy. rlly empathetic. diplomatic and persuasive, but i know i have a temper at times. i am completely goofy, need to joke around and enjoy things. very curious.

HOBBIES + LIKES . really into cryptidcore. baking and cooking. writing. music. languages. cultures. trivia. history. mythology. fire. art. collecting objects, value or no value. games. animals. shiny things.

EXTRA . good news is that my knee injury was not permanent. bad news is that the mental illness was. my love language is mostly quality time but i also enjoy acts of service and physical touch. i love reading myths and legends and actually memorized quite a few. i totally didn't mention but i have a dog and a bunny! (both very cute)

i hope that's an adequate amount, i'm p sure at least half of it is new information. do with all that what you will.

・Likes painting your nails. She doesn’t do a great job though, however you don’t really care

・You guys are allllwwwaayyysssss laughing!!! At Robin falling over, if you accidentally snort, if she farts or you knock something over. Like you’ve both been given laughing gas

・Secret sleepovers. Her parents don’t know she’s a lesbian and you guys are definitely not attracted to each other, but you’ll sneak into her bedroom or maybe even her parents let you sleep downstairs in the den, and she sneaks down to sleep near you

・Movie marathons! You guys spend hours watching movies together; popcorn, everything has to be dark, absolutely no light at all. 

・Steve loves hanging out with you two, but often feels like a third wheel. I think over time he would find his flow and purpose with you two

Robin mixed with Max and Jonathan Byers. You have a sensitivity and inner working that not many others have. It’s distinct, and you leave a mark on whoever you interact with.

I think you would have such a great bond with a cat. You both like to be independent and don’t like people up in your face. So I think a kitty would work so well for you!

𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒄𝒂𝒏𝒐𝒏𝒔

・Will defend you against anyone who speaks ill of you. No matter their standing, if they are talking sh*t, he’s going to break their jaw

・Teaches you how to defend yourself, because even though he would lay down his life for you, he wouldn’t want you to be unprotected

・His pet names for you are ‘my darling,’ and ‘my world.’ 

・Likes to telling you about his day, and you love hearing him talk. It’s so soothing.

𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒃𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒇𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒅

Legolas and Gimli! God you three would be such a whirwind of sh*ttalking. Imagine having a beer with them, in a tavern, laughing and jesting about life and what you’ve endured together. 

𝑾𝒉𝒊𝒄𝒉 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒚𝒐𝒖'𝒓𝒆 𝒎𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒍𝒊𝒌𝒆

A mixture of Aragorn, Merry and Samwise. I think you have this grungey darkness, I actually thought you would have Scorpio in your Big 3. You have this mysteriousness about you, like there’s something that you know about the world and everyone will find out with time. 

𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒑𝒆𝒕

You made friends with a crow. He kept coming back to you, and you would give him food and water. You were gentle with him and would talk to him. He grew very fond of you. And somehow ... became somewhat domesticated. Although you would never take away his freedom

𝑰 𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝑵𝒆𝒘𝒕! As an introverted person, I see Newt as the perfect Hufflepuff. He’s loyal, and caring, loves plants and would be a perfect match for you. Yin to your Yang. He would bring a lot of light and happiness to your life. 

𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒄𝒂𝒏𝒐𝒏𝒔

・Boops your nose when you’re particularly upset. At first you were like “Newt wtf” but now you like them. It’s almost like a kiss on the cheek, or some intimate moment that shows he cares

・I kinda feel like one of the other characters would have a crush on you and the boys would tease them for it, but you handle it with gentleness. Newt is a tiny bit jealous, but knows that you’re a very likeable person

・Always make sure that Newt’s leg is okay. Some days it plays up, and it hurts really bad. It means a lot to him when you help him out, and get things to help with the pain

・You guys have a lot of inside jokes. But one thing that’s so true to your relationship is this ... look  ... you give each other. It’s a knowing look that says ‘be safe, I love you.’ 

・Newt would love to be domesticated. He would make the perfect House Husband. LITERALLY. I reckon he’d be pretty good at baking too

Your honesty. You’re truthful and that’s not actually as common as you’d think. People can be awful, and lie until they’re blue in the face if that meant their reputation was upheld. But I think you would rather the truth over any falsehood. 

𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒃𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒇𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒅

Minho. You two would have so many little arguments, that aren’t really arguments. Just pretend fights, and a lot of banter. There’s never a dull moment with you two. 

𝑾𝒉𝒊𝒄𝒉 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒚𝒐𝒖'𝒓𝒆 𝒎𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒍𝒊𝒌𝒆

A mix of Minho, Teresa and Newt. Sassy, fierce and caring. You have a big heart but don’t show it to just anyone. You’re kind but can stand up for what you believe in. 

𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒑𝒆𝒕

There would most definitely be stray animals in the world during this time. Some have survived and have no owners. I can see you two adopting as many as you can, taking in strays and making sure they have enough food and water. But one particularly stole your heart, with her light brown fur and big nose.

Happy Birthday, Abbi Bennett!! ❤️

Ernest tapped his foot, the thrill of the moment running through his very core. He had dreamed of this moment, but now that was indeed happening, there was this urge to flee. But he didn't. He wouldn't.

The moment her small stature and sweet blue eyes and long brown hair which scent lived in his mind and memory came, his heart raced and his smile got wide. By Merlin, he thought. She is a vision.

He kissed her hand, looking into her eyes and drowning in the most beautiful tone of blue “Sweet Abbi, every time I see you, you manage to become more beautiful.” Abbi smiled bashfully

“You say that because you're in love with me.”

He caressed her cheek “Disastrously so. You are my illness and my remedy. The warm sun who brightens my day and the moon who lightens my darkest nights.” He kissed her hands again and placed them against his chest, where his heart beat at a rhythm that would put to shame the fastest hummingbird “Do you feel it? It beats because I love you. My heart, soul, body and entire being are yours and yours alone, Abigail Jane Bennett.”

Tears threatened to spill on Abigail's part “Ernest...? What are you trying to say?”

He took a deep breath and, without losing her gaze, dropped to his knees, feeling brave and full of love. For her. For Abbi. His Abbi.

“I do not know what are you doing to me exactly, but I do not wish you to stop. From the moment I saw you, you captivated me. From the moment you uttered my name, I was yours. For the moment you touched me, I was sure. I know I am imperfect, and that this will have consequences, but I care nothing for those anymore. Not if you are with me.” He kissed her hands yet again “Abbi, sweet Abbi, my Abbi... I love you. I always have. I do not know when it happened. I do not know when it started, but it did. Your bravery, your intelligence, your fierceness, your kindness... You've challenged me like no other. You've taken the blind off my eyes and I can no longer ignore the truth. I do not know who sent you to me, but I am indebted, for I owe them the woman of my dreams, the queen of my heart and the muse, nay, the goddess who inspires me to become a better, braver man. All I can think about... Is you. When I think of the future, I see you. When it comes to beauty, no one could compare to you. I could have Aphrodite herself bare before me and she would pale in comparison to your beauty. My love, I cannot guarantee you an easy path, but you shall find me your most ardently loyal, devoted and loving knight. I shall fight any wizard and god if you ask me. And let that sword strike me if I dare stop loving you and kill me, for my life will stop the moment my heart stops loving you. I promise to you... that I will make of you my wife, even if that means losing everything else. I will take it if you are with me.” He got up and wiped the tears that had come out of her and kissed her forehead, then her nose, both of her cheeks and hovered over her lips “Do you love me as well, sweet Abbi?”

Abbi sobbed “However could I not?”

He only needed to move one inch and his torture would end. He caressed her nape “Tell me if I should stop–”

“Do not stop,” She breathed

“Tell me I'm crossing a line–”

“You're not.”

“Tell me I–” He was cut off by she closing the gap, kissing him with all of her. Ernest finally gave in and wrapped his hands around her small waist, drowning in her entirely, like he was a poor lost soul in a dessert and she was the oasis that brought him back to life. He didn't know how much time had passed. He didn't care. He no longer heard the water running from the fountain. He no longer smelled the roses. All he could hear, feel, smell, taste and see was Abbi. Abbi, Abbi, Abbi. His mind reeled. They were alone. He wanted her like air itself, and she wanted him. He could have her. He could–

“Whyever did you stop?” She asked, breathless, her hair a mess and her hairpins lost in the grass and her lips swollen.

He shook his head, trembling of yearning and devotion. He swallowed hard “I am no rake. I am a gentleman, and you are a lady. I will not... I will not take such liberties. Because... If there is something that towers over my desire to pin you against that fountain and forget the entire world, is my respect for you, Abigail. I will cut off my hands and gouge out my eyes before I ever dare divert the thought of disrespecting you.”

To say that Abbi melted was an understatement. She took his hand “You did nothing wrong, Ernest. I mean it.”

He took a shaky breath “I could have. And I will not allow it.” He kissed her forehead “Go back to your dorm. I do not wish to put you in a compromising situation. Please.”

She hesitated for a minute before looking into those deep blue eyes again. He was serious. Hr wouldn't accept no for an answer. Instead, she kissed his cheek.

“Fine. But you won't escape me still.”

He smiled “I am at your entire mercy, Abbi. Should you want me to yourself for a moment, you only need to ask.”

She smiled “See you tomorrow, Ernest.”

“My heart will count down every second before we are reunited again.”

Before she could steal one more kiss, he disappeared into the Scottish night. Abbi, with her biggest smile on her face, returned to her dorm, where a few raised eyebrows and smirks full of impertinent questions awaited her.

MAGIC

Wand Description/Picture: English Oak, Veela Hair

[A wand for good times and bad, this is a friend as loyal as the wizard who deserves it. Wands of English oak demand partners of strength, courage and fidelity. Less well-known is the propensity for owners of English oak wands to have powerful intuition, and, often, an affinity with the magic of the natural world, with the creatures and plants that are necessary to wizardkind for both magic and pleasure. The oak tree is called King of the Forest from the winter solstice up until the summer solstice, and its wood should only be collected during that time (holly becomes King as the days begin to shorten again, and so holly should only be gathered as the year wanes. This divide is believed to be the origin of the old superstition, ‘When his wand’s oak and hers is holly, then to marry would be folly,’ a superstition that I have found baseless). It is said that Merlin’s wand was of English oak (though his grave has never been found, so this cannot be proven).]

Naomi: headcanons & aesthetics

Mun Ari: A precious anon ask for this and since it was getting SO LONG (as always), I decided to make individual posts of Naomi and Sabine so I deliver their request! I hope you enjoy it!

[Note: * means something I invented for my AU since there are many blank spaces in the DL verse]

Naomi Nakahara von Adler:

She's the heiress of the Eagle clan*

The Eagle clan remains neutral most of the time. They did participated in the big war, but now they want to be "on good terms" with the other clans. However, they won't hesitate to attack if they feel threatened or sees a great oportunity to invade.

Her mother is queen Kouyou Nakahara and his father is king Kouyosuke Nakahara*.

Naomi physically takes mostly after her father although she inherited her grandma's eye color, but in terms of personality she takes after her mother. They look a little like this:

It was an arranged mariage, but her parents always respected each other*. They were a great team in terms of ruling and raising their only daughter. Since they were very involved rasing Naomi, they decided for her to be an only child. However, Naomi always wanted to have siblings though.

Her eyes are almond shaped, long, curly, thick eyelashes and a beautiful hazel color with hints of green. Like this:

Her hair is a beautiful black with hints of dark brown when exposed to the sunlight. Is long (reaches her lower back) and straight and prefers to keep her forehead exposed, so no bangs.

She has sharp jawline, porcelain skin, but she adds some hints of color with a very simple makeup (a very natural-like aspect). She also has freckles, so she looks younger than her actual age. Ari one time described her as a porcelain doll with cute freckles, and since then Naomi doesn't hide them unless there are important events that she wants to look imposing and to be taken seriously.

Gorgeous body, attractive and generous chest, hourglass figure and a great sense of fashion. She dress with the "old-rich aesthetic" as she's quite conservative with her appearance as a member of the royal family. Something like this, but with freckles:

As a member of the Eagle clan and being an Eagle demon, she can transform into an eagle*. Since it is said that the Eagle clan is in the east of the Makai and mainly has beaches as their natural environment, I choose the Oprey Pandion haliaetus also known as Sea Hawk, River Hawk or Fish Hawk (image below). Her feather are super soft and repel water when she hunts (cause' she does and is a popular sport in the Eagle clan: fishing mixed with hunt in their animal form). Her familiars are hawks which are smaller in size (I thought about a Falco columbarius aka Merlin Hawk [second picture]).

She's around the same age as Reiji, but physically speaking she'll always look 3-4 years older than Ari. As a demon herself, she can control her appearance, so she'll make herself look older than Ari as years go by and Ari naturally gets older. [At some point, Ari turns in an inmortal being of course~].

Naomi is consider a beauty both in the human and demon world. Her demonic nature is behind it and attracts more attention in the human word due to this. This doesn't mean she likes it though.

Personality like: she's very serious, polite, with a sharp tongue, brutally honest, cold and hates being surrounded with interested people overe everything. She's also very intelligent and calculating, sassy and sarcastic. This is for everyone, BUT those she finds dear to her. She has this "big-sister energy", very affectionate, loyal, overprotective and sweet/softie. She appreciates honesty, uniqueness and kindness over all in people she chooses to love.

She finds humans very interesting, this love for everything human-related was born at a very young age. She spent various periods in the human world due to the constant tension between clans. She to had a human nanny/teacher and that marked her greatly.

The nanny's name was Sophia Trovar and was doting and loving with Naomi. She never hid the truth of the questions Naomi made no matter how hard/crude they could be. Even if she was weak, she protected Naomi and treated her as a loving aunt. As a human oblivious of her student's nature, she taught her how to be a human lady. With that her lessons moved around history, politics, art of the human world. Naomi fell in love and deep down wished she was a human herself.

Sadly, they had to part ways as Noami's decision when she "turned" 26. She managed to changed her appereance, but the lie she used was she had to live in another country and Sophia couldn't follow her due to her own family. As Naomi would never age unlike Sophia and so she was afraid she'll get scared of her. Sophia passed away from age and Naomi suffered deeply her loss. She went back to the demon world and took the decision to attend her royal rsponsabilities and study a human career at the same time (after all she had all the time of the world). She choose medicine and she specialized in gynecology.

Naomi as a ruler: she hasn't inherited the throne yet. She's still studying and learning to take the lead and reins of the Eagle Clan. As years go by, everyone will pressure her to marry someone that will help her rule. By that time, Naomi is already in a relationship with Yuri and was struggling between her sense of duty and heart. Yet, if she were to give up the throne, then the new king would be her cousin Austin.

That wasn't an option, since Austin has a more traditional ruling style: he leans more into a more sever and violent approach, so he would be willing to go to war at any moment. Naomi had built alliances over the years with the vampire, wolf and the raven clan and a good political relationship with the Vibora clan. On the other hand, Austin is against the idea of recognizing the Raven clan as an independent and free clan considers them lowly livings and thinks that the rest of the eagle citizens or other clans will make fun of them (something that somehow is the case). So giving up the throne is a dangerous move, after all her partner herself is a ghoul and she wants to help them plus she already supports Ari and Kino as the leaders.

AND you may wonder: how they solved this? Well, Naomi upfront ask her parents to allow her to marry Yuri otherwise she'll give up her title. Her parents allowed it, since they didn't like Austin's ruling style and problem solved. Naomi is "all or nothing" type.

Things with what Naomi struggles (in general): Naomi sometimes has a hard time to understand complex human emotions due to her demon nature. For her is easier to cut off people on her life is thanks to this and that also includes romantic relationships. She tried going out with humans, but it was very complicated. She didn't act nor feel as a normal woman and those males she went out with couldn't provide her with her specific demon needs. She did freaks out people that get to know her in terms of reactions or when she went through her demon cycles (she gets agressive, thirsty, impatient, cruel, sadistic, etc). She has made Ari afraid from time to time, but Ari isn't normal since she deals with Kino. That was an advantage for her friendship to work. That's why her relationship with Yuri works: he's a demon after all (plus Yuri is very chill and deals with Arino 24/7 lol).

Once they got close, Naomi won't allow Kino to do various things to Ari. In tems of power and strength: Kino is more powerful and stronger (after all he has KarlHeinz's genes and is a male vampire), but he allows her to continue living thanks to her rank and Ari does protect her on her own way. Besides, having her nearby is of huge advantage as an ally for the ghoul's cause.

Naomi's relationships:

Ari: she sees her a cute little sister (the one she always wanted). Ari's highest qualities are her kindness and honesty which are what Naomi appreciates the most. Also Ari's uniqueness and loving nature is what captured her the most. She's very protective and spoiling of her. She believes that Ari deserves better and she would have prefered she had a normal life with a human partner instead of Kino. Although she supports it since she has seen their relationship herself since it's mutual. If Ari asks for something, Naomi will likely agree and she's 100% on her side. Best friends forever…literally. Kino: yeah… no. I mean, they do get along… but it's all for Ari's sake. Kino sees her as a nuisance, but useful. He HATES she buts in in his/their bussiness, but she allows her to be around due to Ari's insistence and her status. He does respects her since she's very intelligent and (sassy) fun. They bicker constantly, but she is amusing after all. Impressed she fell for a ghoul and low-key had an eye on her for Yuri's sake lol. Yuri: he won her heart. If she was asked, what atracted her about him? She would answer his calmness, politeness, sense of responsability, his passion, loyalty, patience and the sound of his voice. Yuri's ability to handle Kino and Arino as a whole made the trick. Yuri brings balance to their relationship since Naomi is more passionate, intense and even noisy when looses it, Yuri can handle her just perfect. He's also very smooth and makes Naomi weak to her knees. Yep, a match made in the makai~.

Mun Ari: That's all I can think about(? Thank you for the ask! This help me a lot to develop Naomi or more like improve her! Many things were kept the same, but I did change some things! I hope you like it!
