After The End

Premise 

Your former fiancé and heir apparent of the Aurelian Kingdom, Prince Ædan, has married the love of his life, the fair Saintess Helene. As the nation celebrates their union, you are left alone to pick up the pieces of your broken heart... until you receive two letters. One is an invitation to the office of Prince Ædric, the crown prince's younger brother and rival for the throne. The other is a letter filled with concern from your childhood friend and secretary-in-training, Cyfrin, who is currently assisting your father at your family’s ducal estate in the countryside. Each letter contains a proposition that will change the course of your fate forever.

Which one will you choose?

Features 

Play as the male lead’s abandoned betrothed of a historical fantasy romance that has reached ‘The End.’ You will be able to customize your character’s identity and appearance with a variety of options. 

Choose between two routes for your next course of action. Will you accept the offer of an alliance with the crown prince's younger (and more capable) brother and become the monarch you were always meant to be? Or will you take a step back from the noise and hubbub of high society in the capital and return to your family's estate in the countryside, where your best friend promises to arrange such a great vacation for you that you’ll forget about your ex in no time? 

Characters

The Second Prince: Ædric Aurelius

Ædric is known throughout the kingdom as the Dark Prince, not just because of his ebony black hair, but also because of his unsociable disposition. While it is true that his deep violet eyes and usual scowl can be intimidating, he has been nothing but kind to you in all the years that you have known him. Sometimes you would catch him looking at you with a small smile on his face, but he would always deny it ever happened.

(Ædric's introduction post)

The Future Secretary: Cyfrin Galanthus

You have known Cyfrin your entire life, and your father has known him for even longer, given that he discovered your best friend on the doorstep of your home when he was just a baby. Even though he is the older one between you two, he often trails behind you like a duckling following its mother when his break times align with yours. He has often been compared to a dog: always eager to spend time with you, fiercely protective and loyal, sullen and moody whenever you are apart.

(Cyfrin's introduction post)

The Crown Prince: Ædan Aurelius

Handsome and charismatic, Ædan is the definition of a fairytale prince… just not your fairytale prince. With his golden blond hair and crystal blue eyes, he easily captured the hearts of the people upon his social debut. When he unleashes his soft smile upon a crowd, there is a very high chance that more than half of those present will swoon. You, too, were once enchanted by that smile, back when you thought your love would last until the end of time.

(Ædan's introduction post)

The Fair Saintess: Helene

If your world was the setting of a typical romance novel, there would be no doubt who the protagonist would be. People say that her beauty is a blessing from the gods, and that her silver hair and golden eyes were meant to set her apart as the Favored One. Helene may have almost the entire kingdom wrapped around her little finger, but you know that her true colors are lurking just beneath the kind and naive front she puts up.

I do have a favorite in this game and unfortunately it's the bastard himself; Æden. Sorry I gave him the princess treatment, no man is safe from babygirl-ification in my clutches. Also bonus Saint Bitch cause I love them both. < 3 Thanks for the cool game!

I barely know how to use tumblr, so I hope this is how this works.

Edit: DEVASTATED BECAUSE I DIDNT REALIZE THERE WERE OFFICIAL COLOR PALETTES AND I MADE ÆDEN SO PALE.. I will have to redraw sometime.

[bloodashre]

*Of course * Crowley couldn’t bring himself to say the actual words “I love you” to Aziraphale. He had only just realised he was in love with him. Had the feelings been there for - well, who knows how long? Certainly not him. Centuries? Longer? Likely. And there were times they'd come close, certainly.

But *knowing* it was love, being told he was in love, that what he and Aziraphale had done to Nina and Maggie was all a way to smoke and mirrors their own feelings - that was entirely different. They weren't humans. He was a demon, ffs! He wasn't supposed to love - well, anything. He wasn't even supposed to have a heart - not in the human sense. But it was there, just the same.

He had felt - *something* - when he found out God was going to make a flood and kill children. He knew anger. And when Aziraphale would get close to him - or danger - or someone tried to hurt him or insulted him. But the two of them making him aware - well he never knew anger was a secondary emotion. It *wasn't* for demons - they lived on the stuff, among other things. And he had no need for psychology. Demons and angels didn't work the same way as humans.

Yet somehow, he had become more like them. Whether that was because he'd been around them so long, or because he wasn't like other demons in that he could imagine things. Whether he'd always been this way, even before he was a demon, but just didn't know it, or because of Aziraphale himself and spending so much time with him... He honestly didn't know.

What he did know is that when Maggie said he never said what he was really thinking, it him hard, like a human falling out of a window in a tall building. That when he saw Beezlebub and Gabriel he had felt jealous, because despite all his misgivings, all his fears - because he was afraid, of this, and of being rejected, of losing him - the one thing he wanted most in his secret of secrets, was to do the same with Aziraphale.

He'd wanted to for longer than he cared to admit. He'd tried before, to get the two of them to leave together, but he'd pretended it was for simpler reasons. But even knowing how he felt was easier than saying it out loud, especially to him. Not just because of how big it was, but because he was a demon. In love.

Not to mention the fact that Aziraphale interrupted him while he had had the courage. After his revelation, he tried to put it back, but faltered when he tried to tell him he wanted to spend his life with him. He tried to tell him without saying the words - he'd never said those words.

Before the other two, no demon or angel *had* ever said those things to someone and meant them in that way, especially to each other. And maybe if he hadn't been interrupted, he might have, he really wasn't sure. There was no way to know now, though. So he'd said it the best way he could, and he'd hoped Aziraphale would understand and say it to him. He was, as they said, the one who believed in magic. He'd seemed so happy for Gabriel and Beezlebub. Surely, he would be able to say it. But he underestimated the influence Heaven still had over him. He still believed in it. And it had ruined everything.

So he put his glasses on so that Aziraphale couldn't see his heartache. But he still couldn't say it. So he did the only thing left to do in a last ditch effort out of sheer desperation. He kissed him, hoping it would convey his feelings without using words.

And he felt him kiss him back. He felt his hands on his back, making him shiver because nobody had ever touched him that way before. He poured every feeling he'd suppressed for centuries into that kiss.

And then he felt him pull away and he let go.

For a moment, he thought it might have worked. He - *his* Angel - stuttered and, just for a second, Crowley thought he would say that he loved him. *Please, please, please*, his heart had begged in that moment.

Instead, he said "I forgive you.", and Crowley felt his heart shatter into a million pieces, worse than anything he'd felt before admitting to himself that he loved him. Clearly, he thought it was just a manipulation, just the demon trying to tempt him again. So he made a snarky comment and left. There was nothing else he could do.

Aziraphale would never see. He- and Heaven - had done too good a job of convincing him he wasn't good or kind. Even if Maggie and Nina were right and Aziraphale loved him too, he would never see him as anything other than a demon. He would've only loved him in spite of that fact, instead of seeing beyond it. Maybe he could a little, because he'd called Crowley kind many times, despite Crowley telling him he was wrong, but not enough.

And then he stood there, watching the person he loved walking away, forever, hoping that somehow he was wrong. That it wasn't too late, there was still time - any moment, his Angel was going to put the pieces together and realise he was being honest, that he loved him and they.... *Belonged together.*

But he didn't.

So he got in his car and started driving. He didn't know where or have a plan, but he knew he needed to go.

Been a hot minute since I've been here, but I finally kicked my writer's block! New Fandom, who dis? I promise it's a happy ending, if a little bittersweet. In payment for bittersweet, you get: Villain Snark, Villain Banter, Dabi being an ornery little shi*t, Todofam feels, and... MONCHAN being a very good dog. 🐶💖

SUMMARY: Much to his displeasure, Dabi wakes up after his final confrontation with his family. However, he finds that his family isn't the only one waiting for him. Shigaraki is there to offer him a choice, and he brought his dog Monchan with him.

EXCERPT:

Opening his eyes again, Dabi tried to look around. Still blurry. Lots of white though, so, hospital? Why was he here? Why were they wasting time and medicine on a wreck of a villain? They sure were kicking up a lot of fuss about something. He could see people-shaped blurs wearing white running around like there was some kind of emergency. He wished he could roll his eyes, but that was too difficult. Idiots.

In a world of motion, the eye is naturally drawn to stillness, and so his gaze fell on the figure in the open doorway.

“Dog.” The word was startled out of him.

“What?”

“Did he say dog?”

“Touya, baby, what did you say?”  

Cold fingers touched his cheek, and he answered without thinking, “There's... a dog...”

A rush of confused whispers around him, as if they couldn’t see the freaking dog right in front of them. It was the damndest thing though: The rest of the room and the occupants were nothing but splotches of colors to him, but the dog was perfectly clear, practically haloed in high definition. Some type of medium sized brown dog, a shiba inu or corgi maybe. It sat as if waiting for something, and even from across the room he could tell its eyes were a warm, melting brown. He wondered idly if its fur was as soft as it looked.

“Her name’s Mon.” The new voice cut easily through the babble, and was familiar to Dabi as his own quirk. He felt the muscles in his face pull as they tried to form into a smirk.

“Tomura… Shigaraki… You crusty bitch.”

Day 8: Prideful baking (of the pride prompts by @weirdthoughtsandideas )

🌈🎂

For Context:

This takes place after ‘The End’ in a scenario where the unfortunate gen kids are all living together in one apartment. They’ve written quotes on the walls+have bits and pieces of their hobbies lying around. (Duncan+Carmelita have a small written argument in the wall which is her calling him a nerd because of the quote he wrote+him responding)

Violet has invented an oven that runs entirely on kinetic energy, one of the Quagmire triplets is attempting to pull on the rod to get it to work and is failing miserably!

The pair of them are trying to make a cake for someone in their house who has recently came out, key word trying. Sunny would not be impressed. Still, they’re having fun (we all know they deserve fun :’) ).

(The bench is round at the end so the characters can wipe waste material off the bench and into the bin accurately-it’s another invention by Violet)

Alone

Collector still didn't really know what Luz meant when she asked them if they knew what death meant to mortals. She died, and he couldn't fix her, but she fixed herself. That must be what death is for mortals, a state where they can't be fixed by him or the Archivists, but only by themselves, even if it took a while. And when Luz fixed herself she looked really cool and got really powerful for a while. But it made King and Eda really mad.

That's the understanding of death that he took with him as they returned to the stars and the Archivists.

Collector worked really hard to show kindness and understanding to their siblings, and to show them how much it helped to extend that to others. The Archivists were less than willing to listen to him though.

Collector was still the person in the games who played seeker and went down to see if they could be friends with the different creatures. Collector offered them kindness, understanding, and forgiveness, and played with them so they weren't scared. He didn't play with people like Belos, and they didn't meet anything else as powerful as the titans, but it was fun.

It had only been three years when Collector stopped by for Luz's King-cinera, they were shocked by how much she had changed. Perhaps because he was used to the Archivists preserving the people they met he really couldn't wrap his head around it. They had all changed, though not too much for Eda and King.

But three years wasn't enough for Collector to have matured enough to return to everyone in the Boiling Isles yet.

It was 100 years before Collector came back.

He was a little disappointed with the reception though. Sure, they had been gone for a long time, and had been very immature when they left, but he and Luz had made a pinky promise to try better together. Maybe Luz's friends wouldn't like him, but at least Luz, Eda and King should be greeting him.

But it was only King.

"Where is everyone?" Collector looked around, as though expecting them to come out.

"I'm sorry Collector." King seemed conflicted.

He really did look happy that Collector had returned, but he looked like he had just stopped crying. He was older, taller, his horns were much bigger, and he was starting to grow into his lanky limbs.

"Why? King, what's up?" Collector was getting worried, it can't have been like when Luz died, Eda and King lost it when that happened, now King just seems to have accepted whatever happened.

"They're gone, Collector. Mortals don't live as long as we do." King looked down at the bone he sat on. "I don't even think titans live as long as you do."

"But... But they can come back, right?" Collector started looking around more desperately, perhaps expecting Luz to come out in her titan form.

But they weren't coming.

"No, Collector. When humans and witches die they can't come back." King shook his head, looking at the Boiling Sea.

"But... But Luz did! Remember, she died protecting me, and- and my eyes went weird, and you and Eda got really mad, and then, and then she came back. She can do that again!" Collector's eyes were doing that thing again. He didn't understand why their eyes would leak, but this was the second time it happened and both times were when death was going on.

Perhaps he was allergic.

"No, Collector, that was a one time thing and she used my dad's power. He's gone now, she can't use his power to come back. Besides, it was time that killed her this time." King still wasn't looking at Collector.

"But you're a titan, can't you use your power to bring her back?" Collector grabbed King's paw.

"No, Collector, I can't." King was sounding angry now. "I know you're upset about them being gone, but so am I. You get to live in the stars with your siblings, but I am here alone. Hooty doesn't even stick around."

"I-" Collector stopped, they didn't know what to say. "I can stay here. The Archivists don't listen to me anyway, and when I was trapped they didn't even realise I was missing."

"Yeah." King sounded defeated, but he closed his paw over Collector's hand. "You can stay here."

i made this for Trans Visibility day but then forgot abt it :( these are my trans OCs Sprout, on the left, and Angel, on the right! it sure was nice to be visible for the day! sadly no one can see me now :(

OC INFO-DUMP:

In both Angel and Sprout's stories being transgender isn't the main focal point of their character but it is important. I'd like to imagine that in Spilled City, the setting of my story, the idea of being Transgender is supported by the government and in the law but less by the people.

Because of this Sprout and Angel, more specifically Angel as she experiences more social interaction, both face being ostracised by their peers. This discrimination drives them both together as they understand what it's like to be looked down upon. In reality the two of them have barely anything in common except for this.

YAY! Trauma bonding!!!

After The End has some sick-ass religions, like the Behemothists who see the world as a conflict between god and the serpent with the behemothists themselves being on the snake's side, or the Zetanians, who live in Roswell and worship pop-culture aliens, the Suarians who worship dinosaurs and their counterparts, the Holocenians who believe in a deified version of earth’s history, the surfer religion, the capitalists who appear part-way through and worship money, the occultists who don’t know that the Cthulhu mythos was fiction and descend from the freemasons, the atomists just in general, I love all of them
