more Aphrodite and her mortal lover por favor? *hopeful eyes*

Of COURSE! Me encanta escribir esta historia.

How about a nice little POV switch, hm?

She is as lovely the poets paint her. As the bards sing her to be.

My lady is warm as sun-blessed honey, swift-running and golden as the very voice she beholds. Even in her mortal form, the very one that drew me in like a frail moth to a flickering flame, her eyes shine blue as the cresting sea: now light, and now dark. The bubbles of the tide are painted into the hue, white flecks that could very well be misplaced stars in the sky of broad daylight.

Her olive skin glints like bronze, the corn color of her hair flowing down it as a stream tumbles down gentle rocks of a cliff. Her hands, small and smooth, with lightly visible veins, twist and fly through the air as we dance with one another. The rosy dawn cannot hold a candle to the flush on her high cheeks, as plush and pink as the roses that grow where I would come to lay.

We run, through a field of rustling grain, wind whistling as it blows through each strand. The bright sky begins to rumble, a horde of swelling clouds growing dark, moving in towards us. We know of the drops, of the cold tears that will fall when those cotton clumps swarm our once-vast, shrinking skies.

She turns, enough to tilt her teasing form towards me, and extends a hand. It curls out, her graceful wrist like the neck of a sweet swan, bending just so to lay her paled palm flat. An invitation.

When I take it, she laughs, laughs, and it is of falling feathers, snow white and soft. It is the unfurling petals of a waking blossom, and the scent of apples in the breeze. She is perfect, though I did not think a word to exist.

My Aphrodite guides me, out bare feet leaping and landing upon soft earth, the soil that will soon be damp with water from the domain of my love's familiar, lord of cloud. Was he chasing us, pursuing us then? I could not say, for I thought of no one but her. Though I did not think so. We were small and unimportant to such a great gaze, especially then. To us, the world was not ours, nor were we owned. We simply were.

She led me gently over a hollow log, dark and soft with impending rot, and we were there.

Together we tumbled backwards, as she tugged me into her embrace and we landed upon the spongey moss that cushioned our fall. I laughed, then, louder than before. Giggles that shook us both, holding fast and clutching one another gently, for we knew neither of us would escape.

Mortals fear gods will come to them in forms of doves, of oxen or bulls, in showers of light. Some fear gods will leave them the same ways. I did not feel weary of either. My dearest was many things, but I knew her, for how little we had been acquainted.

The skies rumbled again, vibrating deep within the earth. The sound of the rain began to approach earshot, incessant white noise of the showering pull. It smelled of rain.

A fig tree loomed over us, shielding the remaining sun and the imminent rain from our skins, and casting the gentle comfort of its matronly power over us.

I pressed my face into her neck, her soft locks like myrtles crushed beneath my cheek. She let me nuzzle my nose into the underside of her jaw, feeling out the sweet concavity of the bone. I kissed the space there, where tongue tissue connected with the muscle inside of her mouth.

She hummed, contentedly. "My dear," she spoke, so smoothly and with such ease that it would have brought tears to my eyes at the loveliness. "If we do not return to your home soon, we will be caught in the haze of the storm."

I chuckled. "You do not think I hope for such?"

She was quiet, but even I could feel the grin spread on her lips. She need not say a word, just the buzz of the laugh in her throat was enough for me.

The clouds consumed the sky, and drops dripped from their vastness, dropping down and rolling like sips of water down thirsty throats. The chilly tears landed sweetly upon us, one by one, dissonantly. I tipped my chin up to watch her blink a drop from her dark lashes.

"Do you truly look like this?" I asked.

She was curious. Not surprised, simply curious.

"The way you see me?" She closed her eyes, in place of where a head shake would be. "No."

"No?"

She laughed, a songbird's throaty call. "I appear differently to every mortal. But I know how they see me." Aphrodite cast me a knowing glance. "Blonde, and blue eyed? That is your peak of beauty?"

I flushed. "Like the ocean, and the sand over which it drapes."

She snorted. "Like the children of Zeus."

My hand flew up and swatted her shoulder gently, her body rocking harder with larger giggles. "Oh, please, my lady. Do not scorn me."

"I do not, love." My Aphrodite laughed. "I simply wonder what beauty is to you."

"You are beauty to me," I replied, much too quickly to have been untrue. "In whatever form you may take."

She paused, but there was no word to speak, no comment to mutter. She simply was, and so I was, too. Silence enveloped us, the comfortable and easy quiet that cupped us so gently.

At last, she spoke.

"I do have a true form." Aphrodite said.

I waited. "You do?"

"Yes." She spoke, simply.

Perhaps I could have said a million things: show me, or what shape does your hair hold? Or asked if she even had hair.

But I did not. I did not say any of those, or anything close.

"Good." I said, because it was the only thing I needed to say.

i am actually so glad how much more sympathetic this fandom is about tyrion recently, at least from what i am seeing. like as a result of show changes/his popularity/his character being simplified and erased and made less complex i think the book fandom was trapped in this place of trying to be very subversive about him. but it resulted in the same reductionist thoughts but on the other side of the spectrum. tyrion is an extremely complex and whole character with so many sympathetic aspects along w his major flaws, just like every other grey character in the story. he is an incredibly written character stop reducing him and stop being dense about his internal voice. you can dislike him i am not gonna police who u do and do not like but when it is rooted in ableism and hypocrisy and double standards it is obvious

#sorry for speaking on discourse wont happen again #it was hard being a tyrion enjoyer in 2019 #his character was not discussed outside of a bunch of decontextualized quotes that were used as a ‘gotcha’ to say he is the biggest villain #in the story #so annoying

Heads Up, Seven Up!

Make a new post, throw in the last seven(ish) sentences on your Wip, tag me and others!!

Din sobbed harder. What had he done to deserve him? To deserve someone so patient and understanding?

“Is he gonna be ok?” Ollie asked.

“He’ll be fine Ollie.” Luke said. “Just, don’t get anymore dead things, that’s the last thing that’ll help.’

Din choked out a laugh as he continued to cry. He wouldn’t have the same attachment to some random lizard, but he appreciated what Luke was saying.

“Then how can I help?” Ollie asked.

“Just give him space, okay?” Luke asked. “If he asks for anything specific from you, you can help that way, okay?”

Admittedly this is more than seven, but at least two of those sentences were two words and it said Seven-ish so yeah :P

Tagging @veradragonjedi and literally no one else because I don’t know anyone on here yet who writes yet.

I love/hate it when I start to have second-lead syndrome with my own characters. Like, you're not even supposed to be a romantic interest, why am I thinking of you as one? NO. GET OUT OF MY BRAIN!!

#ri speaks #he will NOT be a romantic interest #in the story #he is in my heart though

Small headcanon that Atem's Ka was Gaia the Fierce Knight in life who was transformed into Black Luster Soldier after Atem's soul was infused with Necrophades' darkness.

#gaia being whom atem calls his main monster in duelist kingdom and whom was a light attribute knight fused with darkness to become bls #in the story #ooc

[soliusss]

man I wish I liked the popular ships in big fandoms.

#gods strongest soldiers are those with rarepairs #god I wish I liked fyodor/gogol #its so popular but my brain cant acknowledge it its so boring to me #there's so much fan content and I just. Can't get myself to like it. ITS SO BORING 😭😭😭😭 #they barely interact on the page together #i think that's the issue #they're only in the same room 1 time #in the story #no interactions #and Gogol's an unreliable narrator so his perception of their relationship can be anything #idk #i cant rationalize it #i just cant get myself to like it #its funny whenever gogol says something gay about him my brain is like a fucking homophobic historian 😭 #I'm convinced they're just gay best friends #i will not be queerbaited‼️‼️‼️ they truly are just dear friends‼️‼️ #rant over #solius posting #it's definitely canon though #i hope gogol wins and gets to kill him homoerotically

[ladsofsorrow24]

i know there are people out there who didn't like chainsaw man's character design because they feel that most of them are boring but personally i think those are ultimately balanced out by the sheer weird designs of the devils

also the mundanity of the human characters' design helps in making the world feel more realistic and believable, because i don't think i can take the story seriously if denji had some gravity defying hairstyle lmao

#not saying the bright and fancy design is not good #but it all depends on the kind of aesthetic the artists want to emphasize #in the story #stories like yugioh etc have those fancy character designs because the story benefits from having such flashy characters #as the story itself is very flashy and theatrical #it's not very realistic to see people screaming out their attack and such for just a card game #but... that's the charm of the series #it's fantastical and fun #chainsaw man however does great with the mundane designs of the human characters because it makes fiends even more obviously... wrong #angel devil is the most human-like devil in the story and he still feels... not human from his character design alone #his height halo and wings really emphasized on that #just... i think people need to realized various art styles and aesthetic have it's time and place #and just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's bad you know? #tmi tag

[mayzie-grobe]

we are SO back i made gen4 posts. incredible 👏👏👏

#mayzie-speaks #genuinely like it took all day #but im so happy to be moving on #in the story #not sure when they'll drop #but i'll break it up with spin-off posts #ive still got plenty in the works #and then i have #something else planned 👀 #a new spin-off as it were #again. spin-offs is mostly so #i still can do gameplay #while im waiting for junior's gen #to get out of the story and be a Game again

Cardigan

coming back to my inbox in the morning and it being full is such a good feeling ❤️

unfortunately cardigan is also extremely ex-situationship coded, but i'm actually writing a story about the folklore love triangle right now so it's applied to my life in the more literal sense (storytelling) currently

i need to figure out what's going on with 7.2

#xe's a fucked up exploration of death and i have all of his themes very nicely set up. UNFORTUNATELY i don't know when he shows up #in the story #because there is a VERY small window of time where he could appear and i don't want to drag that small window out very much #together in hell
