You know, it's kinda funny how much of high fantasy centers around kings and nobility and courtly intrigue considering that the archetypal high fantasy, Lord of the Rings, had the rather explicit moral of "saving the world is up to this backwater hick and his gardener because no politician, least of all inherited nobility, would have the ability to see past their own ambition and throw away a weapon". Oh sure, Aragorn is a great king and all, but there's a reason he's over there running a distraction ring while the hobbits do the real work. Sauron loses because he gets distracted by kings and armies and great battles (i.e. typical high fantasy stuff) letting Frodo and Sam sneak through his back door and blow it all to hell.
Just saying, maybe old Jirt knew what he was saying when he said that the small folk doing their best and holding to each other was more powerful than a dozen alliances and superweapons and we should respect him for it.

In a secluded mountain village run by a society of mysterious women, Kagome, a young initiate, embarks on a transformative journey under the mentorship of their highly esteemed miko, Kikyo.
💎 Chapter 1 : “Prologue -A Dark Fairytale”
🐦‍⬛ Chapter 2 : “Before the Beginning”
Amidst the vast and verdant earth that stretched far beyond the gentle curve of the horizon, a stately gray mansion stood in stark contrast. Its solid structure overlooked endless rows of bushes, neatly arranged on sun-kissed slopes, creating a sanctuary for the tea that would soon grow. These tea bushes were famously known throughout the country to be much beloved by the emperor’s wife, which was a source of immense pride. And wealth.  ➴ Continue ➴

Sometimes I go on Ao3 expecting to see updates on my favorite fics and it doesn't happen.( what a bummer).
Then I think for sure there is someone waiting for me to update my fics too ( it doesn't happen, what a bummer).
And I understand how hard it is to find the time and the inspiration to write something.
So I just stopped by to wish you all love, inspiration and desire to write.

After being unbodied by a spell, Dean can't eat, sleep, drive, or feel much of anything at all unless he's given a ride in someone else's body. Until they can get the spell to put Dean back into his own body, he's in danger of fading out of reality entirely.
The scary part is, he's starting to like the idea.
I sing the body electric.
(Dean co-habits Castiel's body for a while and they are both Intense about it).

I keep
thinking about this muggle au where Percy gets haunted by Regulus after either moving near to where he died or into the old Black home
But i keep freaking myself out because in my head this is not a nice sweet au
This is a "Regulus wants him to join him" type au
and typically includes like Percy drowning at the end you know among other ghost/stalker shenanigans
so i keep workshopping it in my head just to end up jumpy for the rest of the night lmao
like just walking past a room and having to look again
you know
just in case lmao

Kalluto & Illumi drabble, 700 words exactly.
---
Illumi stands with his hands loose at his sides, hair flowing out into the open air. Kalluto watches him from closer to the door; the railing is high above the ocean, and Kalluto feels nervous despite himself.
“How have you been?” Illumi asks, turning his face towards Kalluto.
Kalluto blinks. They’ve been in silence for so long that he hadn’t expected anything from Illumi—they’re not close, barely brothers at all compared to their connections with Killua. “I’m well,” he says, softly. “The Phantom Troupe treats me well.”
Illumi hums.
“What about you?” Kalluto asks, out of obligation more than anything. The veneer of politeness disappears quickly, though—he’s good at twisting knives both physical and metaphorical. “I thought Father said to stay away from the Spiders, so why did you come?”
“Says the one who joined them,” Illumi says with a smile. Teasing, maybe, but his tone doesn’t come across.
Kalluto doesn’t wince. “Mother gave me permission.”
“Of course.”
“That doesn’t explain you,” Kalluto says. He and Illumi have spent years circling around each other in the Zoldyck mansion, so they know how to exist near each other—but since Kalluto left there’s been a heavy fog on all his interactions with his family.
Something he doesn’t want to think about.
Kalluto remembers being little and watching Illumi leave, just like most of the family did—assassinations take time away from the mansion, and Illumi was so good at it even before Kalluto followed suit. That was normal, and Kalluto has never minded being left with the butlers, or staying with his mother.
Back then, Kalluto had never watched Illumi kill anyone. Even when Illumi taught Kalluto how to start honing his Nen, it was built off expectations for Kalluto’s future, a future which Illumi had already reached.
All those expectations were funneled into Killua—and where did that lead them? Kalluto tries not to think about Killua leaving the family, running off with friends. Killua was allowed to come back and then vanish again; it makes an ugly feeling rise in Kalluto’s throat.
Illumi watches him silently for too long, enough to make Kalluto’s skin itch. His eyes are blank as always.
“Anyway,” Kalluto says, eyes pinned on the horizon. “Even if you’re here for Hisoka, it’s fine if you stay after we get rid of him. I’m sure the boss will accept you.”
“You really do talk like a Spider, Kalluto,” Illumi sighs.
Kalluto doesn’t look at him. This is a betrayal of the family—even if Mother gave permission, Father never has. Someday, Kalluto will be called back and forced to leave the Phantom Troupe. He’ll go back to that mansion, and maybe—just maybe—his brother will be back too by then. Things will slot back into place with Kalluto in the destiny he was born for, the thing which Illumi and their mother trained them for.
“I’m not staying,” Illumi says. “After I get what I need from Hisoka, there’s no need for me to play games with Chrollo—I just help him out when he needs me.”
“I understand.” Illumi is different from Kalluto. They’ve known this from the start.
“You, on the other hand,” Illumi adds, “are an actual member. You’re free to stay if you wish, of course—but Mother does miss you.”
Kalluto’s heart tightens into a knot. “I know,” he says. He loves Mother, had wanted to follow behind her skirt for the rest of his life. This is what made him feel worthy, once. But now, with the Phantom Troupe—now, with his whole life in front of him—
Kalluto turns his head toward the door. “I’ll consider leaving with you, when this is over.”
Illumi makes an approving noise—the same noise he used to make to Kalluto when he was able to use Zetsu with ease, a skill that would be perfect for assassinations. “You’re a good kid, Kalluto.”
Kalluto ducks his head. “Thank you.”
But he doesn’t feel as thankful as he wants to. He feels a bit like he’s spinning in circles, dizzy in the presence of someone so familiar, someone who took care of him, but never cared for him. As quickly as he can, he slips out the door and away from his brother.

why does Rick Riordan hate the original myths so bad 💀
the Asphodel stuff?? regret? where is that coming from? you fully just made that shit up? out of his ass fr. the fields of Asphodel are specifically an area of neutrality, where the pretty much all mortals go when they die. it's for anyone who lived a normal life, who isn't a hero or a literal monster. it's specifically a neutral zone for people to exist once they die, it has nothing to do with ~your regrets in life~. it's like, a peaceful field of flowers where all your life's troubles are left behind on the surface.
the closest things to that is the fields of mourning/sorrow, but that's specifically for unrequited romantic love and also not called the fields of Asphodel (and also I'd bet money that rr doesn't know what that is) (and also only in Virgil's The Aeneid and not the Odyssey with the rest of what we know of the underworld)

Her last chapter (A/n: i woke up and choose violence today- ALSO FIRST POV and short)
Tumblr media
The mirror was correct; I'm afraid I never belonged in that place. Clawed my way out of that rabbit hole, hoping for the feeling of sanity once again.
"Good morning-"
"-I will take her order, the usual Miss Kurosu?" The attendant asked me, cutting off his co-worker. Maybe that day I wished for the unusual like I felt in that place...
"Yes. The usual." But, perhaps coffee wasn't the answer for it.
I step to the corner of the counter a heavy sigh leaving my lungs in a twirl. After leaving that twisted place, I seek for my dreams, I hoped for something between the lines of creativity, I craved for recognition. And that's when I wrote my book, "Twisted wonderland." Sure, it was not a creativity tittle, since it was the name of the place, but no one needed to know. No one knew the story written in the book was my life.
"Yuuna Kurosu."
The call out for my name made my head snap up to where the server had my order in their hands.
"Thank you." I took the coffee, heading back to the streets.
The book? A success. People came up with their theories, questions that not even I, the author, could answer.
"Miss Kurosu!" But, there was one question specifically they would all ask me. I turn my head with the hand on the doorknob. It was a teenager girl with my book in her hands. When she noticed she caught my glance, the was a small sight of embarrassment, but when she approached me, she tried to remain calm. "I've read your book, so many times... But, never understood. If Yuui, loved Vian. Why she didn't stayed?"
The only question, I would never know how to answer. As if, they could see right through me, that I wouldn't be able to have an answer. If Yuuna, loved Vil. Why did she left? That is what I would hear.
"Sometimes, the concept of love for some people, just isn't meant to be." Was my enigmatic answer for a straight forward question.
Of course, the teenage girl hums in confusion.
"Can I get a picture?" She asked me.
I nod.
Awhile, she took out her phone, I wondered myself the question. Did I left because the dark mirror was right? Did I never actually belonged?
The silence with a smile on my face, as the girl thank me after getting her picture, made me reflective.
I didn't hold grief for not belonging.
I held pain for not belonging with him.
The last kiss, was the last chapter of Yuui's book. The continuing pain of my life, was the tale not to be told.
Tumblr media
What if I jump from a bridge
What
What if mayhaps
I end my misery right here right now
Tumblr media
You're evil. You're so evil. You're so mean. How dare you. To make my pookie sad like this. How. How could you. You're lucky this isn't canon. I will get my revenge.

asakikuweek day 8: wedding
@asakikuweek2024
It was strange, in a nice nostalgic way, to be getting ready at that exact moment for something as important as his wedding.
Nice because he was about to link his destiny with the love of his life and nostalgic because Kiku had been feeling this urge to replay in his head every single one of the moments that had led them to this point. Hundreds of situations throughout the hundreds of years they had both lived, all concentrated in an instant. It was overwhelming to say the less, but beautiful. After all, to be able to love someone like this was a privilege.
A wedding is the culmination of a stage, it is to say "yes I do" and accept everything that comes with it both good and bad and to feel accepted, it is also to forget the past and focus on the future. A bright future in the company of the only person with whom and for whom it would be worth living it.
A wedding is giving your life away with open arms and receiving one loving heart in return; or at least that was what the japanese thought about this topics.
Getting married was not something nations did very often. Whether it was due to internal or external conflicts, disinterest in human traditions, lack of good candidates or simply because it was not required; his kind didn't think much about situations like that and it was fine. However, it was also not frowned upon to do so and he was glad that many of his peers accepted to come and celebrate such an important ceremony with them. He was glad because Arthur was also glad.
It was important to him and of course it was nice that they could have peace even if it was for a day.
The whole planet was there.
Family.
Friends.
Old souls like the both of them.
But on that day only two people were needed. People, since "marriage-like unions" between countries were called alliances and were nothing more than a mere procedure based on a foundation as fragile as human existence. At that moment he was talking and thinking about himself as part of that humanity because it was not Japan allying with The United Kingdom like one hundred and twenty-two years ago, no, that day Kiku Honda was marrying Arthur Kirkland by mutual agreement and more importantly: by love.
There were no territorial benefits or promises of wealth or contracts involved, no, in that sunny day there were only two beings wanting to unite their personal history without expecting anything in return. They were there together for love, for company and because their hearts felt like it.
And that was enough.
And that was the only thing he needed.
And it was perfect.
Most of the time Kiku did not care about the image of his nation in the eyes of the world, he did not care about foreign opinion and it was no secret that he would not think twice about isolating his beloved island from everyone again; he was fine alone, but all that changed when it was about Arthur and Kiku was incredibly happy that the blonde continued to choose him day after day to the point of proposing marriage.
To him, not to Japan.
Him, among the many options they both had.
Him, despite his personality, temper and unwavering pride.
It was nice to be so open about something for once, and he was happy it was about love.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
A couple of knocks on the door of the small room he had been assigned took him out of his daydreams bringing him back to a reality that promised to be just as bright as his deepest dreams.
"Honey, would you help me with my tie?" the blonde asked, shyly, sticking his head out from the door.
"Sure, come in, allow me"
And so he did, walking directly up to meet him and steal a kiss from his lips.
"Aren't you supposed to not kiss me until we're officially married?" the black-haired man asked with an amused tone.
"I'm not supposed to see you before the ceremony either, bad luck and all of that, but I honestly can't wait. I knew you would look beautiful and I had to see it with my own eyes"
And that desire was mutual.
Attending to the british's request, he took both ends of the piece of soft and fine fabric around his neck tying it with a skill learned over the years. Now that he remembered it, it had been the man in front of him who had help him to perfect his skills with ties, suits, and western ways of dressing.
It had been so many years since that, a mere sigh in the long existence to which they were destined.
"Are you nervous, Arthur?"
"No, not really. It's just that my hands refuse to cooperate since this morning, goodness gracious maybe I'm a little nervous."
"Me too, so it's okay."
"We will be fine, sweetheart. There is nothing to worry about"
And Kiku had always felt like he could believe in his everything. If it was Arthur (as he always had been) then everything was all right.
"Yes, we will"

You said any ship is fine but I'm gonna be nice and say Juke +
"So, butterflies and glitter are just for girls, huh?" Julie said with a triumphantly raised eyebrow at the spectacle that was Luke Patterson.
“So, butterflies and glitter are just for girls, huh?" Julie said with a triumphantly raised eyebrow at the spectacle that was Luke Patterson.
He felt the tiny hands that had been clipping butterfly clips in his hair still at Julie’s words.
He blinked at Julie standing in the doorway with her arms crossed and the biggest shit-eating grin on her face trying to resist the urge to touch his eyes as the glitter eye shadow flaked onto his cheeks.
“But daddy,” his little girl scurried around in front of him looking shocked. “Why would you say that? You look so pretty!” Violet turned to her mother. “Doesn’t daddy look pretty?”
Julie came in and sat down on the floor in front of them giving Luke a sly smile. “He looks very pretty.”
Luke took his four year old daughter’s hands in his. “I did tell your mom a long time ago that I thought butterflies and glitter were girly things.”
Violet’s face fell dramatically and she opened her mouth to tell him who knows what as he cupped her glitter covered cheek in his hand and grinned. “But I was wrong.”
She smiled at him and it was like he’d told her they were going to a unicorn farm to pick one out to bring home. “Good.” She bounced on her heels for a moment before giving his face a good look. She turned to her supplies and picked up a bright shade of pink lipstick she may or may not be putting on his lips.
As she pulled the cap off she turned to Julie. “Don’t go anywhere mama, you’re next.”
