#I LOVE WHEN THE ART SHOWS THEM IN THE DARK AMD YOU CAN ONLY SEE THE WHITE OF THEIR EYE MASKS

[loststarphounix]

imagine the chaos (and angst) in a danganronpa roleswap au if Gundham takes up the role of being a candidate for the Kamukura project (he's also a reserve course student) and Kazuichi being the Chiaki in this situation—

the possibilities...

Yo! There was a fanfic being made with this exact concept except it was Kazuichi that was a Reserve Course and Gundham was very Nagito like teasing him about it lol Their tumblr is still on here I believe, they stated they were rewriting it but there is some art! I’ll try to find it and private message it to you.

But Gundham being apart of the Kamakura project and being the Reserve Course student is interesting! I’m gonna take it a step further and have it be that he and Hajime as still apart of the project and made into pseudo twins. Like the academy probably realized that putting every single talent known to mankind could lead to disastrous results and even worse - not willing to assist them in their goals. So it was decided to have a set of two ideal candidates that can take the burden of possessing so many talents as well as probably being more susceptible to help.

Gundham wasn’t scouted for Hope’s Peak for an unknown reason, but I like to think it’s because his dad somehow interfered. Instead, he is sent to RC so that his dad can still brag to his friends. There he meets Hajime, whose family was going bankrupt to keep up appearances. And though his parents love him, he sympathizes with Gundham and forged a friendship with him.

They meet Kazuichi by chance - I like to think that their meeting in the NWP is a little true. So imagine Gundham and Hajime are sneaking onto the main campus (Gundham making Hajime do bad things let’s go! Lol jk Hajime also makes him bad things 🤣) and they see a gaint, half made machine with legs kicking in the air. They obviously think the persons in trouble and use to help. The guy in the machine isn’t some regular guy, but the ultimate mechanic, who is freaking out that RC’s are on main campus. They promise they aren’t doing anything, just looking around and decide to go back, but Kazuichi doesn’t let them.

He was actually stuck in the machine lol - had been for a whole hour when Nagito was supposed to help him the traitor. As thanks for getting him out, he shows them around. This begins are weird friendship, with the RC’s -mainly Gundham- sneaking in the main course’s campus to visit Kazuichi. Over time, they meet the others and there’s an incident where Kazuichi is jealous of Sonia for getting close to the goth, who’s jealous of Hajime for being so close to Chiaki when it took her almost their whole first year, who is just trying to figure out how to not get overwhelmed by these amazing people and also his stalker “bully” Nagito.

When they’re approached about the Kamakura Project, they do think about refusing at first. Gundham didn’t see the point of having a talent that wasn’t originally his own and Hajime was struggling between accepting he wasn’t exceptional and the what ifs if he was.

But ultimately, Hajime accepts first. Gundham take a while, but he finally agrees because he realizes that wouldn’t be able to see Kazuichi or Sonia again after Hope’s Peak; they’d be out there, making the world better and brighter. And he’d be alone, in the dark shadow of his father. It also didn’t help that Nagito spilled the beans that Kazuichi was not only thinking of leaving because of his cruel father, but that some teen boy from his neighborhood was harassing him within the academy as a late transfer.

If he agreed to the project, then they both would be allowed on the grounds and be apart of classes. They were even offered money. He can keep Kazuichi safe. Their disappearance affects the class, but mainly Kazuichi amd Nagito. The two felt they were the closest to the RC’s, Kazuichi especially. He was finally gonna tell Gundham how he really felt about him, but all he got was a vague text message one morning and nothing else since. Both their phone numbers were unusable and no one heard from them since. Meanwhile, he’s feeling stress by his dads threats and his middle school ex-friend trying to force his way into his life again to get close to his friends - particularly Sonia and Fuyuhiko. It’s been depressing and he cries in his dorm room thinking he scared his only two best friends away.

#that’s all I got at the moment #but after this #I think the story goes about the same #don’t know if I’d have Chiaki or Kazuichi die for the class to go into despair #I’d probably have it be a fake out and keep them in the apartments that the hostages in Ultra Despair Girls are #I’m gonna call this #the Kamakura Twin AU #because real talk: Hajime being forced to have a thousand dozen talents on his own is ROUGH #share that pain bro #answered asks #ask answered #danganronpa #sdr2 #danganronpa 2 #goodbye despair #gundham tanaka #kazuichi soda #hajime hinata #soudam #Komahina #if you squint #but I’m trying to make it obvious #kazuichiswrench #you just have a tag now lol

[weirdo-autumn]

Okay so I've been thinking whether or not to post something about this medieval au a friend and I made up a while ago and to just, ramble. A lot. So here I am- sick at home ( been sick for the past few days actually and it ｓｕｃｋｓ) and wanting to talk about it, right now, at this moment

( note this may contain spoilers for some of the show like s2 and such so uh uh, yeah- )

Ignoring my handwriting- it may be harder to read because of the brush I used, which I use for my sketches before linart, but BASICALLY those are just little notes I wanted to add in for absolutely no reason but did anyway-

Okayso, months ago ( possibly a YEAR ago I think- ) I found some old character designs of the main characters on this show ( if you wanna know what the link is or just want some pictures, I will GLADLY show you if you want!!! THEY'RE SO COOL!!! ) , by Beatrice Blue, the art directior of the show, her art is SO PRETTY BTW- and she was testing a cardboard mask with Wolfboy so I was like, that'd be fun, and thought it looked really really cool and I did the thing, BUT later on in the au it would change to the usual one since the cardboard one would somehow get ruined or something, and his mom would gift him that one. And Wolfboy basically bumps into Xandra and Sprout becsuse Xandra quiet literally threw her shield at him ( he is SAFE btw ) and becsuse he can SEE them, Sprout's like " can we take him with us? " and Xandra instantly turned the idea down, but they bickered on for a while amd Wolfboy is just kinda standing there, Processing what situation he got himself into, he just wanted to save the little cloud- Xandra says yes after a whilebut man does she feel BETRAYED

Okay now about Xandra and Sprout, Sprout is a prince but also not a prince, his family is like a bunch of well-known farmer nobles snd Xandra is like a guard to said family, mostly Sprout, he wears a ( fake ) crown and cape, just because, kinda like Xandra, who would be way more guarded and protective than in the actual show, because she is kinda like a guardian spryte already but not YET yet, just guard of a noble farmer family, I totally forgot to add her little gem that would change into a shield on her but but she has that tooheh. Prince but also not a prince and a guard who is slso not a guard that is their whole thing in this auHAHA, who are also have a sibling relationship, cheering one another on and comforting each other AND ALSO SPROUT HAS THESE HEALING POWERS I ALMOST FORGOT, sometimes he and Xandra practice in their freetime, fighting off disarrays or healing, snd helping each other as they do so, and when Wolfboy comes around and find out he can control the wisps like sprytes all THREE OF THEM practice their fighting/healings skills and such, my friend came up with this idea btw!!!

Now, about Seth ( a character that later comes up in S2, love her ), I'm honestly still thinking more about this au but I'll give what I have- I think it would be interesting if Seth was one of Nyx's guards, and she would be secretly watching the trio from really dark corners where she wouldn't be seen because is she was.... Chaos. But anyway Seth would basically be ALMOST caught every now and then but becsuse she can use her hair to sorta make her invisible, she's mostly not seen, she would give any important information/updates to Nyx since she is her queen, the one she has to listen to, BUT Seth doesn't trust her. At all, Seth is only doing what is told because for her safety, she doesn't want to get hurt like who wouldn't.

I like to think that the Spryte Relam is, instead of the Everything "factory", it would be a CASTLE, and the Spryte Elders would be like kings and queens of said castle, along with the Disarray Relam- in the show, Nyx is known to be the queen of that relam since she was trapped there for years, she has her own guards, nobles, people etc... The Spryte Relam is kinda like that but the factory is now a castle filled with labs, dorms, rooms, portal DOORS instead of the usual portals that would lead to the human relam, and that's pretty much all I have, for NOW. I may have more ideas later on who knows

I have this whole drawing planned based on this au, it's a redrsw but as of this moment I'm getting a totally different idea ohmygod ( update, I have TWO now )

Thank you for coming to my ted talk, whether you read this WHOLEEEE thing or not, thank you ^^ I do wanna post more on here but everytime I say that I disappear like I never even did, but it's true, I wanna post and talk on here more somehowhehe

Thank you again for reading my rambling, have a good day/afternoon/evening/night :D

Baldwins secret - part 30

"Oh my God" Diana marvelled, reaching out to touch the painting. She lightly trailed her finger over it "its beautiful"

"Calling yourself beautiful is abit egotistical Diana" Baldwin narrowly missed the punch to his gut "joke, it was a joke"

"Demetria did this? She was only small when i left" she thought alot about those from Rome she missed and seeing this painting now made her feel guilty for leaving "I miss Rome, do you?"

Baldwin contemplated but it was an easy answer "No"

She turned to him, just as confused as Jack "no?"

"I dont miss the stench of a bath house, the hypocrisy of the Senate, Anthonys unpaid debts - none of Rome. I miss my family, but not the time" he cleared his throat "you want this sent to France or the States?"

"To Jacks studio, in New York. It can be the first bit to go up" she gripped his hand "only if you want it?"

"Sure there is nothing id love more then to stare at a six foot pop art painting of just your face" he retorted sarcastically

Baldwin chuckled "maybe you should have one of Matthew too, a complete pair"

Unfortunately for them both, or rightly deserved for the attitude, they did not escape Dianas double back hand to both of their stomachs.

"Watch your lip, next time it will be harder" she jokingly warned

"Diana you barely broke through my suit" Baldwin lied, God she could fucking punch "dont you think the house is rather quiet?" He noticed the shared glances "what?" He askes suspiciously. He had suspected something was wrong when Jack insisted on showing her the painting early, or when Matthew had insisted on 'brotherly bonding' and when Diana had forced him to help change make the twins lunch.

They had been keeping him busy all day, and now he was concerned "tell me whats going on, now" The last time he was in the dark Diana and Matthew took a trip to 1590.

"BALDWWIINN" Penelope burst through the door charging for Baldwin "UP UP"

He span on his heels completely confused until he saw her making moves toward him like a stampead. He lifted her off the ground, lightly flinging her in the air "the little terror" he kissed her on the cheek "what are you doing here?" The question was more for her mother who was in the doorway, surrounded by his skulking daughters

"Boudicca came to Nanna Ro's house and baked cookies" she squealed "And then i played eye spy for two whole hours in the car with Fabiana and Keiko" she rambled on "And Flo said i can call her sissy but not yet"

He gave them all that spine chilling look and like rats they scurried away. "So you met my daughters?"

"Ah huh and mummy said we can go the Swan Lake now can we can we?" He could hear her little heart thudding

"You missy have had too much sugar" he booped her nose "you know you need to be careful, youll loose all those pretty teeth"

She pouted "i woooont it was only two cookies"

"Only two?" He gave her a knowing look

"Plus seven BUT I PROMISE i saved some for Diana" she gave him a toothy smile, pulling her gums open with her fingers "amd i brush teef"

"Tell you what, why dont you go with Jack to find Augusta" he placed her on the floor "go on, ill come find you in a moment alright?"

She laced her tiny little fingers through Jacks and happily followed him "HI DIANA BYE DIANA" she yelled back as she left, sneaking another cookie out of her pocket

"So, who flirted with who first?" Diana broke the awkward silence, folding her arms over her chest "and why did you two idiots think it was okay to hide it from me?"

"He did"

"She did" they said at the same time

They both scoffed, arms crossed and ready for an unnecessary argument

"ME?" Sienna wailed "YOU stuck it on ME at Sarahs Christmas party!"

"ONLY because YOU were desperate for it i mean come on Sienna you stuffed your fuckin underwear in my pocket"

"AFTER YOU FINGERED ME IN THE BATHROOM" She yelled. She would not be blamed for this. She didnt loose.

"OH MY GOD STOP" Diana bellowed "BOTH OF YOU" she came to stand between them "okay first of all gross, second of all im not angry that you are doing whatever it is you two are doing. Im mad because you hid it from me"

"So if we had told you, you wouldnt of kicked me out of your class? We would still be friends?" Sienna dropped her arms, fidling with the hem of her dress

"It would have been wierd sure, but i want you both to be happy. Despite Baldwin being a giant asshat 98% of his life, he deserves it. So do you" Diana pulled her in for a hug "love you bestie"

"Love you too Di" she pulled free focousing her attention back on Baldwin "we still need to talk though, and not with your entire family and my daughter eavesdropping"

"I am not partaking, i dropped an earring. Ysabeau is helping me find it" Sarah called through the closed door "oh there it is!"

Baldwin groaned "this house is too big for it to be this crowded" he glared at Diana "shouldnt you all be making arrangements for the Christening at Sept Tours"

Ysabeaus ears shot up, a wicked plan already convoluted.

So, I decided I would also publish a few chapters of my newest fic here. Enjoy!

Your heart's desire

Summary:

Regulus Black betrays the Dark Lord and lives to tell the tale.

Years later a strange boy appers out of nowhere claiming to be the son of James Potter and Regulus' own wife. Life as a former Death Eater just became complicated

Chapter 1: The traitor

It was a rare sight to see Albus Dumbledore going into shock. The defeater of Grindelwand, Master of the Elder Wand, Supreme Mugwamp, Chief Warlock and Headmaster of Hogwarts was a hard person to surprise. Yet, now he look like he might have a heart attack.

“Voldemort made a Horcrux?!”

The last word was almost spat out, like a curse. The boy that was facing the venerable wizard nodded. He was young, too young to have such a haunted gaze and so many lines on his face. But like many that were caught in Voldemort’s war, Regulus had grown up fast.

“Oh, I am quite sure he made several Horcruxes. The Dark Lord will want to have as many safety nets as possible.”

The boy fell silent again waiting for a response that would not come. Albus looked deeply troubled by these news. Luckily, his companions weren’t as well informed about the Dark Arts, so the idea of Horcruxes didn’t alarm them at all.

“Right. And you claim have one of these Hor-things, little brother?”

The speaker was another young boy, almost a man, who looked very similar to Regulus. Perhaps the biggest difference between them were Sirius’ muggle clothes and the hateful look on his face.

Sirius didn’t believe for a second his brother’s claims. Regulus could have not turned on the Dark Lord. Not when he had always been following mummy around, got into Slytherin and even took the Dark Mark. Regulus was the perfect pureblood, and Sirius hated him for it.

When the letter first came to the Potters’ house, he had assumed his little brother was laying a trap for him.

Come to the Leaky Cauldron. I have important thing to discuss with you. My allegiances may be changing

As if Sirius would truly believe that. Sadly, Albus had insisted they go and find put what Regulus wanted, though the man had been far more cautious back than. But ever since Regulus had told him Kreacher’s tale (Kreachers?! Honestly, if there was anyone Sirius would trust less than Regulus, it was the mad House Elf), Albus seemed to lose all his common sense, trusting every single word that came out of the Death Eater’s mouth.

“I do not claim to have it, merely that I know what it is and where it is.” Regulus clarified, with a glare at the other Black. Then, turning to Dumbledore: “We must find it and destroy it now. I am sure the Dark Lord will soon find out about my betrayal.”

“No doubt, you want some assurances about your safety when that happens”

Finally, Dumbledore seemed to remember who he was talking to. Regulus just looked at him with a straight face:

“Can you blame me for wanting to live, Headmaster?”

“No, I cannot, my boy. I have to confess, I have never imagined you of all people would turn against the Pureblood ideaology”

“You think I care about useless Pureblood propaganda when Voldemort had the temerity to create a Horcrux? You know what this means, Proffesor. He is truly….truly a monster”

Sirius Black and James Potter snorted at the rather late realization, but Dumbledore only nodded as if Regulus made perfect sense.

“Indeed, it seems we have a common enemy, Regulus Black. So I must ask you: are you willing to oppose Voldemort and risk your life and the lives of all who you love in the process?”

“My life has been hanging by a thread since the day I took the Dark Mark. As for the people I love, well, I only really care about Kreacher right now.”

Sirius groaned at the mention of the hated creature, while James snickered at the idea of a Death Eater caring about a House Elf.

“In this case, Mr Black, let us talk about this…. Locket”

Regulus nodded and started to explain everything he knew. Which wasn’t much. From Kreacher’s knowledge and the Dark Lord’s occasional ramblings he had deduced that Voldemort had turned Slytherin’s locket into a Horcrux. He also knew that whatever potion was there to protect it must be something extremely dangerous, maybe even deathly. He had entertained the idea of going into the cave himself and drinking the potion, but that meant he would most likely day. And even more, he will die before the locket could be destroyed which meant such a sacrifice would be most likely for nothing. He could give the locket to Kreacher, but who could say the foul object won’t try to harm the House Elf?

Sadly, his only option was trusting Albus Dumbledore and his merry band of do-gooders. Do-gooders that included Sirius and James freaking Potter.

Regulus liked to think he was above school grudges, but he would not hesitate for a second to curse the man that had led his friends into playing pranks on Slytherin House for seven years. If there was one good thing in being a Death Eater was being able to curse anyone you wanted without worrying to much about consequences (unless the person you wanted to hex was a more influential Death Eater than you, of course). Alas, it seemed he will have to tolerate James Potter for the time being.

For his part, Albus Dumbledore wasn’t very happy with this turn of events. Of course, the fact they finally had a lead to destroying Tom once and for all filled him with joy. Joy that was overshadowed by he knowledge that his former student has fallen so deep into the Dark Arts he used one of humanity’s worst creations to preserve his life. There was also the matter of Regulus Black. The boy seemed genuine and his information was invaluable, but Albus still couldn’t banish the uneasy sensation he felt at the thought of fully trusting this person who had been raised to believe in the superiority of his blood, who had spent seven years with Slytherins who had filled his head with nonsense about Tom’ greatness and who, after graduating, had pledged himself to Britain’s worst Dark Lord. There was also the matter that he was a Black. Yes, it was hypocritical considering Sirius was a Black as well, but Albus had seen Sirius reject all of his family’s teaching ever since he was sorted into Gryffindor. On the other hand, Regulus had actively embraced them. Until now, when he conveniently switched sides and brought with him the means of Voldemort’s demise. Could it be a trap? Could Tom be cunning enough to try and trick them like this? To what end? And why use Regulus? Because he had thought Sirius would trust his brother? In that case, Tom would have miscalculated. Sirius distrusted him more than anyone else. Maybe Riddle had thought Albus will offer a second chance to a young boy more readily than to a grown wizard?

There were too many questions and their time was too short. In the unlikely case the young Black was telling the truth they needed to act now. The Horcrux must be found as soon as possible. Yet, he could not forget the like hood of a trap.

“Alright, Mister Black, let’s assume I believe you and I am willing to offer my protection. You do understand you will have to tell me exactly where the Horcrux can be found. After that, you will come with me to the Order of the Phoenix’ headquarters – I assume you know what the Order is from your master – and tell us everything you know.”

“No.”

The firm word was so surprising that Potter and the older Black gasped and even Dumbledore’s eyes widen in surprise.

“You, Death Eater scum, have the temerity to..”

“Enough, James. Let’s hear him out”

Regulus took a deep breath. It was clear that he did not found it easy to oppose the great Albus Dumbledore. In his own way, the headmaster was as frightening as the Dark Lord. Yet, he had already chosen to stand against one, he will not let himself be bullied by another.

“Let’s make something clear, Dumbledore, I had once decided to join an illegal organization and follow blindly the orders of a very powerful, but slightly mad wizard, and as a result I have no intention of doing it again. I am not one of your Gryffindors who you can order around like a puppy…”

“Why, you liitle shit..”

Regulus paid no mind to either the interruption or the insult.

“…. nor am I a Ravenclaw or a Hufflepuff who’s willing to work for you for a greater cause amd as such will excuse you a great many things. I am a Slytherin, one that has already defied the Dark Lord. I refuse to trade him for you, Professor. I will fight against him and as such I will fight by your side, but do not think me another puppet. So, I will not tell you where the Horcrux is. I will show you. I want to be there when it is destroyed once and for all. After that…. We’ll see.”

If the older man was insulted by his harsh words he did not show it, he just nodded.

“I suppose I can agree with these terms. However, it will not be just the two of us that go to retrieve the Horcrux, we will be accompanied by a number of trusted people. And Kreacher.”

At the House Elf’s name both James and Sirius looked confused, while Regulus fought down the urge to swear. While asking for Kreacher to come with them was a rational demand as the elf was the only one who had entered the cave beforehand it was also a strategic move. Dumbledore did not trust Regulus and needed insurance it was not a trap. It did seem like the old man believed him when he had said Kreacher was the only creature he still loved. Sadly, the former Death Eater had no choice but to agree.

“One more thing, Mister Black.”

“Oh?”

The young man struggled to keep his face a mask of politeness, but it all fell apart at Dumbledore’s next question:

“Have you ever killed anyone?”

“Yes.”

He was proud of how steady his voice came. Meanwhile, Sirius and James were getting angry again and started pointing their wands at him. Reg fought the urge to do the same. He had too many unpleasant memories of being hexed by the Marauders at Hogwarts. He forced himself to not think about it.

“I killed two muggles. Mother and daughter two months ago.”

“You, bastard! How could you do something like that?!”

“Oh, shut up, Sirius. You tried to kill a classmate at he age of fifteen!”

“How… how do you know that? Did Snivellus..”

“Sirius” Albus tried to silence the Gryffindor. They could not afford to lose track of their objective. “Excuse me, Mr. Black, but I fell to see how your brother’s sins absolve your own.

This sobered Regulus.

“They do not. I know it does not mean much, but I did not want to kill them. The other Death Eater, they were torturing them. It was… horrible. I don’t even know why they were in the Dark Lord’s house but they were screaming and …”

And the woman kept begging me to help her daughter. I should have tried something, anything but I was too much of a coward.

“… and I killed them to end their suffering.”

He searched the faces of the first three who he had ever heard this confession. Potter looked disturbed, Sirius a bit mollified while Dumbledore betrayed no emotion. Just like the Dark Lord, indeed.

“I see. How did Voldemort react to your act of mercy?”

“I lied to him and told him that I thought any kind of attention given to Muggles is a waste of a wizard’s time. He seemed to believe me.”

Ironically, the other three did not seem as convinced. But Regulus has had enough chit-chat.

“Well, Albus” he used the Headmaster’s first name on purpose “if there is nothing else, I would like if we start our Horcrux hunt.”

“Yes, I believe that will be best”

CHASE (1)

Pairings: Thief! Bucky Barnes * Thief! Reader (female)

Summary:“Mr. ‘B’ world renounced thief, they call him an artist you see.” He laughs, one devoid of humor and pushes his hair off his forehead as he brings his hand in front of his face, all his fingers touch his thumb to make the ‘fox’ shape from them.

“The beauty with which he crafts his muse. Every robbery a new piece of art. Every stroke careful and planned. Every scheme drawn with precision. He takes pride in his master pieces”.

He shakes his head, his lips setting in a firm line.“For me, well he is just a pity thief. And who better to know a thief than one herself”

Word Count: 3197

Warnings: Robbery, mentions of robbery, Violence, Gun shooting, some cursing…. maybe? 

Chapter 1

Dressed in formal this time, he moves through the airport crowd smoothly, without garnering any attention.

He runs his hand through his dark hair, cut short this time to blend in. He also has a little stubble going on which he thinks makes him look years older as he catches a glimpse in one of the design mirrors on the airport walls.

His flight isn’t scheduled for another 3 hours but he likes to be early, prepared and out of the main city as soon as possible.

He hears a young boy arguing over at the check-in counter for a possibility to get a flight before 7 am to which the lady shakes her head telling him the earliest they have available is for 10 am.

The boy runs his hands through his hair roughly as he pulls at the roots moving out of the line.

James (today Robert) moves forward and hands over his ticket and id card getting himself a pass.

He moves to sit on one of the chairs as he waits for the time of his flight that leaves at 4 am. Its 1:00 right now.

As he gets comfortable to read with smugness the article about his achievement and yet another failure of the police, his eyes drift to the news going on on the television.

“Mr. ‘B’ informs CNN of his next target” it reads and James’ eyebrow raises in amusement.

“Just right now” the lady on the news channel says as she sits on the desk at her office “We got a call from the famous thief Mr. ‘B’ informing our news channel of his next target right here in the city-

James folds his newspaper as a smile graces his lips. This is interesting. And while he knows this is a bad idea, he stills looks around.

He always did love a challenge.

—————————

The young boy is suddenly informed of a last minute cancellation and availability on the 4 am flight.

He won’t miss The tennis match.

God bless whoever cancelled last minute.

_——————

Darkness and excess of security. A swap here and running behind the pillar before a guard can turn around, you navigate yourself through the museum before making way towards your target through the AC vents that have been closed for a while but you have your ways. The tiny particles of dust dance around as you navigate through the narrow tunnels.You would have been a sneezing mess if it weren’t for your face mask.

As you wipe the bead of sweat flowing down your chin under your black face mask, you smile at the ease with which you secured your target.

You jump down almost from the top of the room skillfully and look towards the target you were here for.

She’s beautiful. They say she belonged to Cleopetra herself. Gifted to her by one of her lovers. They say her beauty is nothing compared to her owner and suddenly you understand the egyptian men’s attraction for her.

The green diamond shines in the dimly lit room emanating a beautiful glow. For a minute you stay in your position just admiring the beauty before yourself. 

The moment last only a short while before you realize your mission and rush you get your hands on the diamond.

“You don’t want to do that”

You quickly whip your head to the source of the voice and look straight at him. Clad in full black shealth suit and a face mask different from yours. While your covers your entire face only leaving a long patch for the eyes, his is more revealing like an eye mask people wear at those fancy parties. His head in covered in a black hat matching both your suits.

He seems to be eating a sandwich. Which he quickly finishes and wipes his mouth with a tissue paper

He stands up pocketing the napkin

“Motion detectors” he points towards the necklace. He then produces a pair of sunglasses “Wanna see?” He asks as he places the sunglasses on your nose so you can see through it

Just as he said red laser lines run parallel to each other around the necklace

“Infra red rays” he takes his sunglasses back “the moment you go to touch the necklace, an alarm would be set off and” he points towards the several gates lining the walls “Atleast three guards from each door would come rushing”

You look at him raising your eyebrows but realize he probably won’t be able to see them because of your mask but he somehow knows you figure going by his smile

“I’m a professional” he stretches his arms “I know how these security dudes think”

You look at him trying to gauge your next move but he is quicker

“You wanna steel it” he shrugs “it’s yours to steel”

You raise your eyebrow again

“Nah this thing is not even on my list” he starts to move closer to you and produces something from the pocket of his skin tight black vest

You quickly take up a defencive stance preparing to reach out for your knife but then he raises his arms in front of you and you realize it’s just a chocolate. He tears the wrapper from his gloved hands and takes a bite

“Oh no need for weapons dude” he says as he takes another bite “I’m just hungry” he brings it towards you “protein bar?”

You shake your head and look back towards the thing trying to decipher your next move. He continues eating

“When you’re done with the analysis just thought I’d tell you, the moment you touch the object, 12 mili-ampere current beams would shoot throught those holes in the walk” he points all around the room “one hit and BOOM paralysis” your eyes widened and he smiles at you taking another bite of his protein bar “temporary hopefully”

You look at the thing again not out of options. This was more difficult than you anticipated. Time to think of something new

He smiles as he observes you going through an internal debate

“Confused” he mocks and you glare at him “you should be, its really a difficult position, I can help”

You look at him with furrowed brows

“Well honey” he mocks “This seems to be a highly one sided conversation. How am I supposed to work this if you won’t talk to me”

You only glare and he finishes the last of his protein bar pocketing the wrapper and zipping his pocket close

He adjusts his mask that only covers his eyes and rubs his hands

“Okay so here’s how this goes” he seems serious suddenly “You tell me why you used my name, I help steel this and its mine cause you used my name and its kinda the main rule of this profession 'you steel it in my name its mine”

He tilts his head and gives you a dark smile that screams trouble and you feel your heart increase its speed

“You may wanna start talking”

You look around amd your eyes suddenly lock on the cctv camera on the top of the room

“Hacked” he says and you turn to look at him “all they can see is this sword undisturbed and right here without us in the frame, we have approximately” he looks at his wrist watch “ 15 mins before they figure it out, so you better get talking”

You look around trying to find a way to catch him off guard but he is faster as he pins you to one of the walls

“Why did you use my name”

His face is really close to yours and you feel your heart rate increase trying to look around but he forces your face to look at him right in the ocean blue eyes

“I-I ” you try to say and he smiles again. You suddenly hate the curve of his lips.

“You?” He mocks and there is a sudden jolt of anger in you at him

You kick him in the shin and catch him off guard moving away from him. He tries to get back at you removing his gun from his thigh holster but you stop him

“Stop threatning and I will talk” he smirks and signals you to continue. You run your hand over your face and continue “I just knew you would be hot and right now, I feel you are hoter than I thought”

He makes a face and you’re sure his eyebrows are raised under that mask

“I mean dude” you move your hands around suddenly excited “You are like the Merly Streep of our world, I mean like totally top, top of the charts”

He smirks at that

“I have always looked up to you” you smile but you’re sure he can’t see it through your mask “I kinda really wanted to meet you and I have a preposition for you and you can’t say no to”

His smirks widens and he crosses his arms “Go on”

“You see like Sherlock needs Dr. Watson, like Cory Mattews and Shawn Hunter, like Chandler Bing and Joey Tribianni, like - like” you click your fingers as you try to come up with more “like like Tom and Jerry everyone needs a partner in crime. You know a little help indeed and well” You motion towards him from both your hands then at yourself “What about a literal partner in actual crime”

He actually lets out a laugh at that and shakes his head

“No thanks”

“What no dude listen” you move towards him “you need me, you maybe famous world-wide but me” you smile “The best of the best locally. Brooklyn has never seen a talent like me”

“I’m just fine by myself” he shakes his head and then moves towards you and bends down so you two are nose to nose “A theif is brilliant only by himself, no threats of betrayal”

Your heart suddenly starts accelerating its speed and you are not sure if it is because of his words or his closeness

“I-I” he turns around and looks at the item

“5 mins left Brooklyn’s best theif” he smirks “Maybe you can show me how good a partner you can make”

You smile at his words and move your hand in through the holes for your eyes in your mask and reach your hand to your hair to pull out a hair pin

“Duck” you scream quickly and he is fast to follow as you both get down on your knees and you throw the hair pin towards the artifact. Several alarms start blazing and just as he said 3 guards each enter running towards the room with huge guns

They corner you both from all sides and you make eye-contact with your fellow theif before you smirk and you are pretty sure he knows you are beneath the mask as you ignore the warnings of the guards to stay on your knees and hands behind your back as you reach for the artefact, clicking the button on your belt that pulls you up towards the vents through the ropes you hand installed and you barely get a glimpse of the guards falling down as the laser beams shoot out and hit them.

You don’t see what happened with the other before you make your way through a different path in the vents you came from and get down towards the back of the museum quickly. Just as you pocket the diamond you hear footsteps running towards you from your right and make eyecontact with a red-head woman not in her uniform but clearly a police inspector

She produces her gun and speaks in her ear-pieve “Steve I have him in the C corridor” She slowly moves towards you with the gun raised “Hands up”

You move your hands up in surrender before there is a gun shot from behind you that hits the red-head right in her hands and she drops the gun screaming in pain.

Before you know it, you body is pushed against thick arms and engulfed and being pulled thorugh the corridors. More officers run down the halls and try to shoot at the teo of you but he is faster and is anticipating each and every move and none even get a glimpse of you both.

Suddenly you are dropped in a corner and and you hear footsteps run away from you. Did he just leave you to run away? What the hell. You feel your pockets and the diamond is gone. Great.

Just as more officers almost reach you, you stand up and decide if you should run before someone has a gun pointed at your back.

“Got him” this guy says to those in front of you through the dark and moves your hand behinx your back and handcuffing “Though he had another one with him, shot officer romanoff, you might wanna catch that one I think he has the diamond”

“You got this?” One if the officer asks him

“Ya” he says “this one seems the weaker one” there is a playfullness in his voice and you immediately recognize that voice and your eyes widen. He moves his head toward your ear and whispers “Be quiet”

The other guys leave to chase 'your partner’ and he guides you through an exit you hand no idea even existed and before you know it you are out of there and quickly pushed in the passenger seat of a car, hands still in hand-cuffs.

Just as he starts the car you get a good look at the guy and your eyes widen as you get a look at the guy in his police uniform and thick mustach. He smiles at you and moves through the traffic. Leaving behind the sirens and commotion around the museum.

“The robbery was brilliant” he says as you hit the highway after a while “perfect in all sense except the running away part, need'ta work on that, you know most important part of being a theif, execution is important and all but if you get caught,everything is in vain.”

“O-okay?” You say now actually really scared and trying to decipher where he was taking you

“Well I’m known for my running away skills and as my partner, you will be too soon”

He genuinely smiles at you and you smile back trying really hard to mask the fear you actually feel in the moment and try to appear excited.

“Also Tom and Jerry were kinda enemies rather than partners in crime”

A small short lived laugh escapes your lips.

————–

“I really thought you betrayed me” The blonde says as he stands besides you at the concert, the music blazing through the speakers

“And go where” you glare at him “not many places left where I could go and your men are not around”

“Kinda need to do that” he shrugs “can never fully trust you not to run away”

“Great makes me feel so special” you say and wince as the rapper takes some verse and the girl besides you loses it, screaming her love for him

“Did we really have to meet here” you ask covering your ears as he continues looking forward and shakes his head

“Crowded places reduce the risk of him seeing you with me and getting suspious”

You nod

“So what is his plan” officer Rogers then asks folding his arms on his chest

“Plans?” You shrug “I don’t know. It has been just 2 days since we met you really think he will tell me every one of his plans?”

He sighs and shakes his head

“And it is all your fault” you hiss through the noice “You were supposed to catch him there I did everything.” You move your hands around exasperated “distracted him with the partner proposal, took the diamond and ran the way you told me to and was even surrendering to your officer”

He glares back “you got her shot, Agent Romanoff is one of my best officers and now she has to go through all these physiotherapies before she can even hold a gun”

“I got her shot??” you look at him disbelievingly “he shot her and took me”

He just shakes his head and you sigh

“Listen he is coming here today so just catch him and let me off this”

“Ya right arrest him for making friends with you cause that is a real crime” he shakes his head “Listen to me carefully Y/N you cannot catch a theif without proof and theifs like him, leave no proof, unless we actually catch him during the robbery we have nothing against him”

You shake your head “What am I supposed to do now after you failed so miraculously”

“Be his partner” your eyes widen “report his every move, his plans, everything back and help us catch him”

“No- I-I can’t do that” you yell through the youngsters singing the rap with the rapper

“Yes you can and you will” he says sternly “Listen I know its hard but now you are deep in it and you are my best chance, also you have to do this if you really want to avoid the atleast 10 year prison sentence which would come if I by mistake provide the jury with your file. Just saying”

His threat almost causes tears to form in your eyes but you hold it in as you cross your arms

“What will he do to me if he finds out” you whisper and even through the noice he hears you

“He will kill you” BOOM the loud screeches of the drum signalling the end of the song accompany his words and you nod trying to hold back the tears.

“Stay in contact” he says and then he’s gone. You don’t even try to see where he went, instead trying to calm your racing heart

It is another song that has kids in front of you going crazy as the singer- you don’t even remember the name- of removes his shirt and throws it to the audience”

A body pushes against yours and this hippy guy with shoulder length hair in just a halve sleeved jacket shimmering in some design opened up to reveal his shirt-less torse (which btw is swoon worthy), his arms bathed in different bracelets and rings smiles at you through his teeth to reveal his lip piercing.

You frown and turn back to look at the stage before he tries to gather your attention again

“Hey its me” your eyes widen and you look at him again and he smiles. You can recognize that voice anywhere

“You changed your look again” you scream as you look around

“Kinda my thing” he shrugs and then offers you the plastic glass in his hand

“No thanks” you shake your head

“Take it” he forces the glass in your hands and you look inside to find no drink in it instead a paper of some sort “Ticket, for the plane and the passport is beneath it, don’t be late”

And with that he is gone just as the singer bids his goodbye.

[celestisnothere]

PLS TELL ME ABOUT YOUR BNHA OCS

As of now i have 3, they're from an amino set 15 years from canon but this can be ignored bc it doesn't affect on thr ocs that much (aside of a hero crush one have)

I wanted to out a read more under cut vere but idk hiw you do that so yeah...

Btw, they're all genderfluid or transmasc nb and use they/them and he/him bc i'm self projecting and no one will ever stop me from doing so

Celest Akamine

Celest is a 3rd years u.a student and they're half japanese, half latnix

They speak japanese, spanish and french (their latinx blood is from the caribbean island of martinique)

They're panro and demisexual and they're a huge chaotic neutral

Hero name: Magma

They have a lava manipulation quirk that allows them to transform parts or all their body into lava at will and manipulate it. And due to lava's desnity and heat, Celest can "melt or consume" the earth nearby (up to 20 feet radius) as mava would irl. It also allows thrm to harden said lava and melt metal to a degree when using the quirk

Due to this quirk Celest has a huge heat resistance and their average body temoerture is higer than normal. They have to be really cautious when touching/interacting with others and they need to eat way more bc this higher temperture means they burn more calories.

They are 170cm tall and are rather tanned. Theyvare very androgynous and they have their hair long and has it always braided, or in a ponytail or man-bun

They're an introvert and insecure about their quirk despite being sarcastic af and they love golden age hollywood movies, van gogh art and old rock music and snakes

Their fav prohero is endeavor bc fire quirk(and bc ghey dont know about all the todoroki fam drama ofc) and Sero/Cellophane (15 years in the future bc in canon time sero is 2 years younger so i guess i would deage them 2 years idk)

Cassiopea Gallardo-Iwasaki

They're a villain and they are 23yo, they go by Cass, a nickname no one uses is "little star"

They're american by birth but they are half american, ¼ japanese and ¼ spanish

They're demi-bisexual and romantic and a true neutral (to deal with their companion chaotic neutral)

Villain name: Mess

Cass has a quirk that is called "mess parameters" which means everywhere they goes or whatever cass does will mostly end up being a mess of bad situations were possible before hand.

Cass quirk allows them to know when and where a "bad situation" is about to happen in a 50 feet radius and they can decide to increase its level of mess or to control it. They are unable to downgrade the level of said mess. If they do control their quirk, cass is able to increase and/or to control certain amounts of chaos so it creates the desired amount of destruction and damage. This is good for distractions and others.

Downside is that they can only increase or control messes in places where messes were doomed to occur. If cass overuses their quirk they feel extremely tired and may even faint. Another side effect are headaches.

Cass always travel with a boy named AJ who is quirkless but an arsonist. Cass has a huge ass crush on AJ but is on huge denial though they only show their soft side or their true self to him and wherever AJ is, it' one if Cass' safe places.

They're 165cm and their skin is pale and have huge eyebags due to their quirk and not sleeping well nor enough.

They are an introvert and very quiet if not with aj or others they know also very sarcastic and with a very dark and self-deprecating humour despite having beating depression and being in a better place now they are their true self and having no contact with their toxic family and past friends.

Takahashi Lualhati

A pro-hero and science teacher at u.a and they are half japanese and half filipino (bc they need way more rep in media)

They speak japanese, filipino and tagalog, and english

They're demi-homoromantic and ace, they're a lawful neutral

Hero name: Mr. Nightmare

Their quirk works with pheromones and is called "worst fear manipulation" or "room 101" (bc of George Orwell's 1984) i have yet to decide

As the quirk's second name points out it allows Lua to know what are people's worst fears, the ones even their subconscious stops from appearing in dreams, and their body produce a pheromone to induce fear so they create an hallucination with said fear and make people fall into their power so they stop or until they fall senseless bc of the fear

I haven't thought lf downsides yet but probably this quirk will make lua be very empathic but also be very detached of their own emotions after using it, as if they were still in the other person's brain to search for the worst fear.

Lua fears a point of no return of enjoying using their quirk on others amd really start torturing people with it.

Lua is 179cm and has a rather dark skin compared to others even if when they use their quirk their whole skin seems to turn to coal black

They're more of an extrovert and they always see the bright side of everything. They're rather cheery and bubbly as well as both the mom friend and the vodka aunt. They're very intelligent but also go from both very wise to stupid as they are very ride-or-die for their friends. They love conspiracy theories with a passion and no obe but Lua understands why.

This is very long ik but it's also the briefest i could make it with every character.

Join the amino if you want to know more about them and to rp with them and other ocs.

Interest Check Results

Hello! The interest check has come to an end and we have received a lot of interest! Meaning that the zine is proceeding forwards!  Thank you very much to everyone who submitted a response!

We are going to display the results as well as responding to comments and questions received! We will also be making an information page for this, however it will be much shorter, so if you’d like to see more in depth responses, feel free to read the rest of the post! If you have any questions that aren’t mentioned in here also, feel free to send us an ask!

Since the first question is to just get a general idea of who may apply, we’re skipping straight to this one!

 The zine will include both written works and art based on this, as it is clear that so many people would like to see both! 

Based on the results, we will definitely be requesting that writers and artists try to include the 1-A and 1-B kids as much as possible! Additionally, we will not have main drawings focused around civilians in the BNHA universe as they were not as popular as many of the other results. If any writer or artist does want to include a civilian in their piece though, they are free to do so if it is not the main focus! For example, if someone is writing a Shouto piece and they decide to include Fuyumi and Natsuo that is totally fine! 

(Also 1-B had way more votes than 1-A right up until a week before it closed which was super surprising! They had 100% until people started excluding 1-B from their votes. I guess 1-B is always on the sidelines, sorry Monoma-)

We received a wide array of pokemon for this question! We will be making all the pokemon we received on here into a list and allowing contributors to choose from them if they would like to, especially with the pokemon mentioned multiple times! Since we did receive a lot though, we can’t really guarantee that all of the pokemon mentioned will make it in, however we will try to get as much in as possible, as well as pokemon that weren’t mentioned as well!

We also got a few super specific requests for pokemon coupled with BNHA characters! We will be giving these as suggestions to the person creating for them, however if the contributor doesn’t want to include that specific pokemon because they had other ideas, we will not be forcing them to!

Now! Onto the Comments/Questions section!

I'm wondering what the general tone of the zine would be and what kinds of stories would be requested of writers

 We would like the overall tone of the zine to be focused around friendship/bonding between trainers and their Pokemon! So overall, a more lighthearted zine. Writers and artists will be free to make their piece as they please as long as it doesn't go into NSFW territory or themes that are too dark for the Pokemon universe.

-Don't make it a free digital zine. I, and many others, would love to buy this. If it's free/digital only, I will not be interested in participating or downloading. -Not digital online only,,,, Iinterested in real zine book w/ merchandises and bundl

Since my last response (found here) I have gone back and checked again, and unfortunately I still do not feel comfortable making this a physical zine. My original concerns were due to issues with Nintendo claiming on other platforms, and since then I have found a zine Nintendo shut down despite it being a charity zine (something that I had actually considered prior to making the zine free) and especially due to all the issues in regards to zines scamming, I really do not want to say that the zine be charity or even for profit and end up having to cancel the zine completely. I hope that you can understand!

Will there be a physical copy of the zine?

There will not be a physical copy of the zine for reasons mentioned above.

Will there be merch?

As of right now, we do not plan on doing merch, however if any artists are interested in doing free digital merch for the zine like wallpapers etc, we will leave that option open to any artists who may be interested in creating them!

There are so many zines out there that don't deliver or are scams @m@ I hope this isn't one isn't one of them. I love pokemon! I'd also apply as a writer but thats for the apps process....

We intend to see this zine out until the end! We received quite a lot of interest so we will definitely be proceeding forwards! We hope you still apply as a writer!

I want to ask whether there's a overall time frame of when the zine will take place as I'm currently working on other BNHA projects as well. But aside from that, can't wait to see this come to life! Keep up the amazing work! :D

We will be posting the schedule for the zine shortly! 

What is the stance on ships? What's the desired maturity rating? If you use a mix of artists and writers, what ratio would you be looking at and roughly how many total contributors would you be trying to find?

Our stance on ships will be that there is no romantic ships allowed, however if you do want to draw two characters as friends in the image you are free to do so! The reason we have decided no romantic ships is because there are a lot of ships that may not be everyone's cup of tea, but with platonic stuff most people will enjoy it, even if they do or don't ship them romantically!

The Maturity rating will be mostly PG, however for characters in canon who are perhaps foul mouthed, we will allow writers to still make use of curse words if they would like to.

Overall, because this is a free zine, we do not have a set amount of contributors we expect to accept as it mostly depends on how many applications we get in the end. Overall, I'd like to have at least 30 contributors overall, but there may be more or less depending on who applies and how many apply to each category. Because of how writer to artist ratio normally goes in apps, I'd say there will probably be an 8 artist to 1 writer ratio, but again, if a lot of writers do apply in comparison to artists then the ratio will change!

Is this zine gonna focus on the individual people and MHA and thier pokemon or is this also gonna be relationship focussed? and by relatioship I don't just mean shipping, I mean partnerships, friendships, maybe people who travel or work together.

We intend for the zine to be focused more around individual characters from MHA and their Pokemon, however if an artist or writer would like to include perhaps friends or rivals into their piece they are free to do so as long as it is not something romantic.

Generation 9. The game isnt out yet amd the list of all pokemon. How will the zine show the new generation?

For Generation 8, we will be allowing contributors to include Pokemon revealed so far. Additionally, we will not be allowing contributors to make shiny versions or even evolutions of the Pokemon revealed so we can avoid any inconsistency in canon.

[mossbrightteyes2]

So I’ve just been thinking lately on the subject of Nagini from the Fantastic Beasts and where to find them: The crimes of Grindlewadx and why I take offence to her characteristisation. Upfront I will say this the actress does a lovely job of portraying the character of Nagina and seems to be interesting but nothing in the film itself seems to suggest she will end up as a living horcrux and timeline wise it does not make much sense, I mean it’s a big revelation and it’s put Voldemort whole character in a new light,

I mean part of the reason why he’s a such as good villain is that he does not understand the power of love and is such a self obsessed psychopathic narcissistic mad man the only thing he can relate to or show affection to is a pet snake that holds his soul. Having the snake being a transformed person removes him away from this image it’s suggests that he himself was capable of caring for another person as even it was in a toxic way and feels as through it recons a huge palette of his character? I mean did he know that his snake was once a person? Did she help him due to the then Tom Riddle’s decit and he turn her into a horcrux as a twisted form of respect in between the years he left Hogwarts and resurfaced as Lord Voldemort after wanting the defence against dark arts job (may not be correct in the details) it detracts from his characteristisation and implies that she basically becomes his slaves and does not seem to fit into the timeline amd when was she made into a horcrux plus the films don’t seem to be linking up the Harry Potter films and book and novels much and she seems to be a pretty heroic character which it’s at odds with most of Voldemort’s followers and it doesn’t look that great....

When I first came about it I came up with an alternate explanation there are two Naginis, the snake and the women, Nagini the woman is who she see in fantastic beasts, as her curse ditakes she eventually turns into a snake and then meets another snake or asexually reproduces as a snake Nagini two which Voldemort finds and due to its unusual intelligence makes into a horcrux thus being a mix of horror amd tragedy and has not plot holes (well less than before) I mean if Nagini had been a person turned into a snake horcrux wouldn’t it have been as massive deal and been in half blood prince, I mean it screams a recon. As for the other issues you could simply introduce other Asian characters such as Auror or resitance fighter against Grindleward who comes into contact with Newt and Co duento having key information for example of being sent by a ministry, immigration does exist which could explain why they are there.

Sorry I know this is badly edited but I just have so many isssues with Nagini being a women under an incurable curse as it throws so many things into disarray , that she is one of the few canon non white characters so what happens to her does not look that great but I don’t think that my place to say as I myself am White but I on a meta level this doesn’t look good

Edit- I just realises this has low key racist undertones due the snake baby part so even if she didn’t turn into a snake maybe she could become a friends with another snake that’s very intelligent which is used as a horcrux, I mean did I want it know where she comes from yes, but not this I always thought she was an ordinary snake changed by magic or a wizard breed if snake like those cats

*After Thor & Before Avengers Story* ☆Chapter 1☆ "I could have done it, Father. I could have done it. For you. For all of us!" Loki cried. "No Loki." was the reply he got from Odin. Loki immediately shut his mouth. It dawn to him that there is no point anymore. It is useless. Shattered and heartbroken, Loki knew there was no point in staying and holding on so he let himself fall into the wormhole. He is so full of sadness and grief that he could not even hear Thor screamed his name. Loki just stared at Odin while falling all the while realisilng that Odin showed no compassion. Not a scream. Not a movement. No action at all. No thoughts about saving him. Odin remained still and expressionless. 'Then it's true. He does'nt care about me at all.' thought Loki. Loki is pulled all the way into the wormhole. He saw it closing above him and Loki close his eyes in relief. He kept on falling and falling. He does not care where he is going as long as it is anywhere but Asgard. He was prepared to die or be lost in space alone in his miserable life for eternity. Loki is still dwelling in his thoughts when he unexpectedly crash landed hard which force him out of his despair state. "Owww. Uggh hhhh.. wha what where am I? " Loki groggily said as he slowly sit up trying to take in his surroundings. It was all dark menancing looking rocks. "This is definitely not Valhalla."Loki said to himself. "You've come a long way from home Jotunheimian." a deep mysterious villainous voice said. Loki was startled and he quickly turned around. No one was there. "Who..who are you?" Loki asked. "Your ally. If you would regard me so. I sense that you arrived here after a great struggle. You need time to sort things out. I can help you. I can help you discover your true potential" the voice replied. "If I refuse?" Loki questioned still looking around. The voice seem to come from everywhere yet nowhere at the same time. "Good luck having a life alone for all eternity with no love from anyone. As far as everyone thinks, you are already dead." the voice coolly replied. "They are already dead to me. What difference does it make? Besides there is someone who can see where I am now. He guards my realm. As much as I hate to return, I can always go back home." Loki replied sarcastically. "Your Heimdall may have great power but this is beyond him. He cannot see you now while your here in my realm. You also found ways to conceal yourself from him many a times already. Your secret exits don't work from here in case you have plans escaping. I control all here" said the voice. "I have magic. I can always outdo you." Loki shot back. "You tresspass into my home and now you plan to overthrow me? Such intense indeed. You could be useful afterall."the voice said considering. "What do you want from me?" Loki asked. "What I said before. Your ally. I see you are deeply hurt, sad, grief and confuse. You always yearn for approval but is never granted. A second class in the eyes of your Father. Overshadowed by your Brother. A mischievious boy to all. " the voice said. "Enough!!" Loki yelled pain and anger building in his heart. "Silence Asgardian." "Do not refer me as that. I do not wish to associate myself with them...with him anymore." Loki gritted his teeth. "Very well then Jotunheimian. I see you have a lot to offer. I can help you reach your fullest potential and see much more. More than anyone has ever known. Come now, one of my Men will guide you. Your training starts now." Loki took a deep breath in. He hated being control but what he hated most now was Odin. The lies and betrayel. All his life he tried to please the man. What he got in return.... Loki shurgged it off. He will now focus on ahead. At least here is someone who values him. Who believes he is worth a chance. Now Loki can prove to Odin that he is indeed worthwhile even more than his own son, Thor. Loki heard footsteps amd glanced up to see a hooded creature staring at him. "Follow me God of Mischief, Lies and Trickery. Master of Illusions and Magic." it said creepily. Loki smiled. At least here, he is appreciated. ☆Chapter 2☆ "Show me what you can do." the creepy hooded guy said. Loki began to create multiple illusions of himself. Loki also created other forms of illusions. He even showed other forms of magic he could do. Even though they were impressive, the hooded guy remained unmoved. "Your illusions need work. We need to make them more solid and real. We will work on them. I will teach you other spells and enchantments to boost your skills. We will work on your combat training too. Asgard trained you well but we are better." the Hooded guy said. Loki rolled his eyes. It still stings to hear Asgard but at least here he is learning much more things. Hours turn into days. Days turned into months. Months turn into years. Loki excell in his trainings even though it was never easy. He mastered in the Art of Dark Magic and Spells. His powers grew stronger. He learnt to harness energies and power sources. He visited worlds he never knew about for his trainings. One of them was The Dark World. Loki saw Malekith and his minions in their cacoons and told by the Master that they will rise soon. Loki was trained how to defeat them and use their weapons. Aside from that, Loki now knew how to deceive people better. His mind became more cunning and deceiving. He also finally knew how to combat better. He even drank the potion of death to ensure he won't be affected by it. What is better is that he receive war and battle training. He had learnt of his Master's plan and was extremely interested in it. The Master had explained it to him. He wishes to gather all 6 Infinity Stones so he can be powerful enough to wage his dream for Infinity War on all Worlds. To emerge victorious as ruler of them all. Loki will be hugely rewarded and will get to rule Asgard as its legitimate ruler. Out of those 6, 2 of them are the Tessaract and the Ether. The Master said one of them is close to being discovered. Loki never wanted the throne. He only merely wanted to be his brother's equal. He was never power hungry. He only wanted fairness and approval. However, knowing he was lied to and denied of his actual birthright made him extremely piss off thus his sights were the throne as payback to Odin and to prove to Thor that he is just as good or even better. ☆Chapter 3☆ "Jotunheimian. Before we send you on the mission we have in mind, we would like to show you something." the Master's voice said. "Yes Master?" Loki asked puzzled. "Follow the light. It will guide you and it will answer questions that still remain in your mind." the Master monotoneously said. Loki was pulled into the light. What he saw next changed his life drastically. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Waaaaa waaaahhh waaahhh" the sound of a baby crying. "Sssshhh. Hush now my Baby. Be still now don't cry. Sleep while dream of good dreams. I'm sorry my son I have nothing left to give but there's a chance that you may live. I pray we meet again. I love you my Son." the Woman sang to her son softly before kissing him as she put him in a basket. The baby slept. Laufey staggered into the room. " My Dear, they are coming! You need to leave now. You need to escape Now!" Laufey cried. He was severely injured. Crash and running sounds are heard from a distance. " No!" "Leave it!! You are worth much more!" "He's our Son, Laufey! He is sick. I would never abandon him!" "He is deformed! He's never going to make it. Abandon it!" "I know you don't care for our son Laufey but I do." "I ..I ..a deformed son. I love our son but I cannot accept a deformed son. We would be the laughing stock." "Tell me Laufey. Why are they attacking us? What did we ever do? We did nothing wrong. We just need a new place to live. The Women are dying. Our place is dying." "I'm Sorry, my Dear" Laufey said. The main place door to the throne room was busted open. Odin stormed in. Laufey looked at his wife with tears in his eyes. She held his face with her hands. "I have to go. Stay safe. If I die, we will still be together." "I love you Laufey."she said and kissed him. "You are my strength. I love you more Leandra." Laufey went to the nursery front door leading to the throne room to face Odin. "Allfather. This has gone far enough." "Not until you learn your lesson Laufey." Odin cried before advancing towards him. They fought. Laufey was about to lose. Odin would kill him. Leandra saw this from the nursery room. So she did the only thing she could do. She run throw herself to shield her husband as Odin gave the death blow. The beam from the scepter hit her heart. "Aaaahhhhh!!!" "Leandra!!!!" Laufey yelled in suprise and hurt. He tried his best to get towards her but was stop by Odin. "Laufey" Leandra said softly before she gave her last breath. "Nooo." Laufey said before glancing up at Odin with eyes of intense hatred. Odin had his sceptre to Laufey's heart. Laufey struggled to move. "Waahh waahh" cried the baby. Odin glanced towards the sound and followed it. "NOOOOOO!!!" Laufey yelled. Odin came out with Laufey's baby in his arms. "Consider this an act of diplomacy. This child shall remain with me where he shall learn to be good and not get corrupted by you. Farewell Laufey." Odin turned and left. Laufey was left to struggle with his wounds alone long before help came. All this while he lay with his decease wife, crying. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Teaes form in Loki's eyes as he watched this. It's been long time since he cried. The likes of his birth mother were exactly the same with Frigga. Loki would not admit but he missed her greatly. He instantly regretted killing Laufey. He's hatred for Odin reached the maximum level. Loki then said "Let me see her." Loki was brought to Jotunheim Cemetery. He knelt his his mother's grave and stayed that way for a while fighting back tears. He magically conjured up a red rose and place it on her grave. "Let go home" Loki struggled hard to say. Odin had to pay. ☆Chapter 4☆ One day, Loki was still in training when his Master said "Jotunheimian, one of the stones is on earth and has recently resurface. Go now to observe and when the time is right, strike." "Yes Master" Loki smile deviously, his face bruised and battered. His voice deeper and meaner and his hair was wild. He had changed alot throughout his time there. One, his hair had grown longer something he would not dare do on Asgard. At Asgard, he is suppose to follow the rules and be obediant. The life of a prince especially under the shade of his brother's greatness. But now, he had become more rugged and strong. He had visited worlds that he never knew before, for his trainings. He learnt to adapt in dangerous situations and to think on his feet. Loki felt free. Free from his brother, Thor. Free from needing the approval from Odin. Free from his ownself. He felt independent and completely different person. He especially felt more evil. Loki teletransported his illusion onto Earth down into the the depths of the secured Headquarters of S.H.E.I.L.D. where he felt the strong power of the Tessaract. Being a Frost Giant has its perks. Since the Tessaract was Frost Giant's property that was lost in the last Great War, Loki was able to detect it with ease. "Power Doctor. Maybe unlimited Power." Director Nick Fury said. Loki appeared in the glass surface smiling. "While that's worth a look" he whispered to entrance the Scientist nearby. "Well that's worth a look" the Scientist repeated to Nick Fury. Loki smirked. The Scientist and Nick Fury shook hands and left. Loki followed them to the place where they kept the Tessaract. Lots of Scientists around. Some were trying to study the Tessaract but fail since the it was very reactive. Loki laughed. 'Foolish mortals. You will never be able to learn, understand nor harness that amount of Power' Loki thought to himself. Lokie then transported back and reported it. "You have done well, my Prodigy. Go now. Rest. I'll have word with your mentor. I'll summon you soon. The time has come. Be prepared, my Prodigy." the Master's voice said. "Very well Master." Loki said. ☆Chapter 5☆ "The Tessaract has awaken. It is on a little world. A human world. They would will its power but our ally knows its workings as they never will. He is ready to lead. And our Force, our Chitauri will follow. The world his. The universe yours. And the humans, what can they do but burn." Loki was handed the scepter by his Mentor and was made to run through the plan. Loki smiled. It was his moment to shine. He used his powers to connect to the Tessaract in order to create a portal. When he felt the connection and see the opening of the portal from his end, Loki step through it. Loki is ready to take on the world and nothing can stop him.

[ajokeformur-ray]

Hello, there. May I request a Black Butler romantic match-up as well as what Ciel and Sebastian would think of me? Thank you.

I am an 18-year-old white female from a slavic country. My hair is chestnut brown amd my eyes are honey brown. I'm some 160 centimeters tall but that doesn't stop me from being active in sports. My favorite sports are kayaking and volleyball. If I was to choose a martial art it would be muai-thai. My preference in music, literature, and movies is wide as I just go with whatever comes to my liking. When it comes to art I prefer traditional art. As a person, I am both introverted and extroverted. I value loyalty above everything else. My personality type is INTP-T, the Logician. For the matchup and the opinions... Would it be too much to ask to use both the des ription and the blog?

I can’t match you with Sebastian romantically and then give you his opinion of you because it’d be obvious so Sebastian and Ciel weren’t considered for that part of your request.

Romantic matchup: Undertaker 

- I’ll do your blog first: I think, more than anything, the aesthetics of your blog would intrigue him and maybe he’d even be comfortable in it. The dark blue reminds him of a midnight sky and some of the gothic things you’ve reblogged would make him think of home. He’d be humoured by your literature and would spend long hours reading it, asking you questions etc. Writers often put little pieces of themselves within the words that they use, so your literature would be a key part of his getting to know you. If you weren’t comfortable with it, he’d read them in secret and make sure you never knew.

- Now for your description: As a logician, everything has a reason, a rhyme to it. Your outlook is incredibly analytical and on the people who don’t know you, you may come across as cold and uncaring. In time, however, INTPs are said to be extremely devoted and caring, something Undertaker only loves you all the more for. You'd have quite a secretive relationship in that only the two of you really know what’s going on, but you’d like it that way and you’d be stronger together for it.

- You’re an ambivert (introverted and extroverted) and this flexibility would definitely interest Undertaker. He’d want to know where your social limits are as INTPs aren’t typically social creatures, but for the most part, he’d enjoy spending time with you alone. You probably wouldn’t have an activity to do together, but you’d be doing your own things. So Undertaker would work on a corpse and you’d write or practice your sports/martial arts (he’d give you a spare room in the back of his shop to practice in, free of charge (no jokes needed)).

- His favourite thing about you is your eyes. In his particularly morbid moods, he thinks about keeping them after your death so then he never has to live with the knowledge that he won’t see them again. But then he decides that you’d prefer them in your eye sockets, where they belong, and chooses to just look into your eyes as often as you’ll let him. When he's insecure or just needing some extra comfort, he’ll look into your eyes...It becomes your way of signalling to each other that you need a hug or whatever usually comforts you. He also loves observing how the sunlight catches your chestnut hair, showing all the different tones and highlights.

- On special occasions or when he wants to treat you, Undertaker uses his license as a collector of the weird and wonderful to get you originals of all your favourite artists’ portraits and paintings. He’d gift them to you casually, with a simple wrapping and a bow to hold it all together and giggle gleefully when he hands it to you.  

Character opinions of you 

Sebastian Michaelis

About you: I think the biggest thing about you that he’d be interested in is the depth of your loyalty. Your friendships and relationships often stand the test of time and he’d want to know why you’re so loyal. Was it a past event that triggered it or is it simply you? He’d also observe you in all surroundings, intrigued by how you can blend into any social situation and how your utilise your analytical outlook on life in day to day scenarios. One thing’s for sure - when Sebastian is interested, he’s sure to stick around.

Your blog: Sebastian isn’t often appreciated for what he does so I think he’d appreciate, for lack of a better word, how a fair section of your blog has pictures of him in various states of undress and how he’s always respectfully portrayed and spoken of, especially in your literature. He can tell that you have a great deal of care when it comes to writing about him, and it only serves to inflate his ego, which by now is so big it’s a wonder he can fit through the front door of the manor.

Ciel Michaelis Phantomhive

About you: Like Sebastian, he’d immediately invest in your loyalty and would see if you can benefit him in any way. He would appreciate how you can hold your own physically, as well as the way you look at life. He’d likely ask you to play a game of chess with him so that he can see just how analytical and competitive you are, and I think you’d quickly become an honourary guest at the Phantomhive manor.

Your blog: He would be flattered and humbled, I think, by your Ciel RP blog. You write for him very well and the fact that you write for him in such depth and character tells Ciel that you have a great deal of respect for him. He would stammer at the SebaCiel literature but would come to see it as another form of appreciation, though it’s not one he bothers himself with.

[captusmomentum]

Excessively detailed asks: 1-19 odds only for Inan, 20-38 evens only for Tace plz :D

fuck me running this is a lot OKAY HERE WE GOOOOOO

INANALLAS

(heads up the pronouns are gonna jump around here bc inan uses they//them and she/her so hopefully doesn’t get too confusing rip)

1. What does their bedroom look like?

Surprisingly Clean. They’re exactly the type you’d expect to be super messy but thanks to living in such small spaces like aravals all their life they’re very good about keeping things in come kind of order. This stands even for modern verses, they’re very good about it. In verses they’re inquisitor they actually rearrange the room a lot, putting their bed on the balcony and making the main floor more of an office/living room as well as creating panels to help block out some of that sun bc HOLY SHIT WINDOWS, they also have a panel set to block the view of the bed which is really just wedged between it and the railing. The little bed alcove is very cozy and the main floor is much more functional and better for have friends up :D In modern aus, like say amd, they’re one of those people who’re like ‘ live in an apartment that’s only 90ft big :D’ and when they show you how it’s like part science miracle and part acrobatics bonanza. Like look at any tiny home or tiny apartment type show/place/thing and thats’ how they Roll. Mainly bc they’re fucking Broke AF, creative/innovative and well trained by dalish life for it. So bedrooms are usually like, lofts and shit like that which can mean it’s not much more than the essentials of Snoozing. 

3. Do they exercise, and if so, what do they do? How often?They do! Inan works out pm everyday in pm every verse. Their style of magic is very, very very physical so it requires a lot of working out and training even in verses where they’re not constantly murdering ppl like canon ones they gotta get diesel for magic. In most verses they primarily do a variety of martial arts (or just one elf/dalish one? depends on how deep into worldbuilding you wanna get here honestly) and then things like running, weight lifting general kinda fitness exercise things. I imagine in modern verses and such (maybe more canon ones too tf do i know) that places like Arlathvhen’s there’s like, a sort of pow wow/olympics type event that goes on and clans have people representing them and Lath was disqualified for cheating bc she’s Weak in the temptation of Victory so Inan is the Obligatory Contender in at least some of the mage events, usually like, dueling bc it’s ironically her specialty. So she really does have to stay sharp when in verses where there’s no fighting bc she’s gotta bring home gold for clan Lavellan. 

(if u wanna get a sense of how inan fights it’s a LOT like pm anyone from avatar the last airbender/Legend of Korra especially Korra and Katara(atla) )(apologies about the katara vid and that shit music there’s So Little out there sobs)5. Cleanliness habits (personal, workspace, etc.)

Inan isn’t the most organized or together person which is combined w/ their dalish upbringing is why they’re Hyper Organized. Things have places and they go there ALWAYS otherwise they’ll never be found again ever. Also lots of labels. Their own living spaces are more organized than their work spaces, generally bc other ppl touch things or put things on their desk. Every time someone touches their things they have a small heart attack bc it means that something CRITICAL might have been moved and will never be found again. Seriously they are held together only by the power of their aesthetically pleasing organization and labeling. So school is Really Fun in modern aus (read: i’ve considered having them be a high school dropout for Various Reasons).7. Favorite way to waste time and feelings surrounding wasting time

They Dream of wasting time. They Long to waste time. Everyday they pray they can waste time. Usually a lot of her time goes into things like Clan Stuff, Magic Stuff and Work Stuff so any chance they get to dick off they do. They fave method in modern verses is tv or youtube but in canon-y verses its Tavern w/ Bull or Tavern w/ Sera, the 2 people most likely 2 not call her out for Ditching Shit. Drinking w/ Dorian and/or Varric is very high on the list in all verses.9.Makeup?

Naaaahhhhhhhhhh. Generally too lazy for it and doesn’t like feeling of it on her face. Also it’s a real Bitch bc she’s always got tats on like 70-90% of her face and freckles (which she actually likes) so like foundation’s a Nah but you can’t do things like cover her dark circles w/o foundation otherwise the difference is Too Obvious like it’s just a Disaster. She can be convinced to wear it at special events and things but someone else has gotta do it. 

11. Intellectual pursuits?Some and very disorganized. Generally answering any Burning Mystical Questions they have regardless of worth or importance, debating (fighting) about topics involving analysis in books and things, Fade Stuff, Learning Elvhen. They don’t really actively pursue a lot of things bc they’re doing so much shit normally, they really only pursue it when the interest strikes. Also, proving that the occult is Real and Valid.13.Sexual Orientation? And, regardless of own orientation, thoughts on sexual orientation in general?hoooooooooo boy dksjlgjfdsgfk, pansexual demisexual/grey-asexual is probably the best description. they don’t know they just like people and they don’t think about it they don’t think about Sex Stuff or ppls orientations it’s all W/E IDK and while they’re not prudish or squeamish about it they will run screaming for the hills things get too raunchy. Sex –especially sex involving them– has them looking for the nearest exit, not necessarily bc they’re sex repulsed but they are Extremely Anxious and Scared of interpersonal interaction so kissing is yiKESSSSSSSSSSSSS15.Biggest and smallest short term goal?Hmmmmm that’s really hard. Biggest is usually like: Not Die. Smallest is something like: whatever is next on to do list. They live a life of unnecessary extremes. 17.Preferred mode of dress and rituals surrounding dressGoth mori/strega fashion vibes. Lots of skirts and layers and looking very much like a peasant wizard. Usually they just dress for the weather and put on as many layers as they can to feel safe and protected (and snuggly). There’s a lot of similarities in their logic about it with Uthvir but with miles of soft fabrics instead of spikes. Usually darker colors with an emphasis on blues. There’s not too much in the way of ritual around it since they’ve tailored their wardrobe so they can grab things put them on, and look good w/o any real effort.

 here’s the for inan fashion stuff 

19.What do they think about before falling asleep at night?

Usually they go through a very specific ritual when going to sleep since they’re a dreamer to help keep that shit on lock which involves a lot of emptying of the mind and relaxing and preparing to deal with Fade Shit. If they don’t it’s just existential dread, anxiety and depression shit and panic. So they don’t not do the thing…….

TACE

20.Childhood illnesses? Any interesting stories behind them?Tace wasn’t really sick much more than the normal amount and kinds as a kid and was the kind who conks out the whole time and doesn’t say, try to get up and play. As he got older and his dreamer abilities started to kick in he reacted to it like someone who was very sick, fevers, hot and cold, sweating. slept too much or not enough. He began to have trouble keeping food down and lacking an appetite which he still has problems with to this day along with sleep trouble and exhaustion. 22.Given a blank piece of paper, a pencil, and nothing to do, what would happen?either doodles of dicks and such or a rude, raunchy or somehow unacceptable letter to someone whether he knew them or not he wrote for a laugh with no intention of sending. He’s very mature24.Is there one subject of study that they excel at? Or do they even care about intellectual pursuits at all?He actually excels in a lot of things, he’s a pretty gifted mage. He just Hates the Circle and all that academia type shit so regardless of his skill in them he doesn’t want to do them. He thinks intellectual pursuits are on a whole a waste of time because they’re mainly just there to make people feel more important and fancy.26.Do they have any plans for the future? Any contingency plans if things don’t workout?NOPE. NONE. past maybe ‘consult with that statue of Eleni Zinovia back in Ferelden about what to do w/ my life’ and ‘get a boyfriend’. 28.Who do they see as their best friend? Their worst enemy?hoooooo that’s Rough. Probably Banal though he’s more a father figure. He wasn’t very close to his other mages and hated the templars. Later when he meets Keshet and Shalev I guess they become his best friends which is...... very gay and lame.

Worst Enemy is Cullen and Meredith but Meredith is dead so fuck youuuuuuuu Culllleeennnnnnnn.30.Reaction to sudden intrapersonal disaster (eg close family member suddenly dies)Boy This Sucks [Drinks like a monster even more than usual] 

he’s pretty desensitized to tragedy but also a shambling mess so it’s really just his usual self but like 1000000000000000% worse for a while

32.Thoughts on material possessions in general?

MORE PLEASE. he loves shit give him all the stuff he wants to lounge in a gaudy parlor on a opulent chaise. He never got to have much in the way of possessions in the circle so he lots shit now. also he’s just a material little shit.

34.Thoughts on privacy? (Are they a private person, or are they prone to ‘TMI’?)He doesn’t care about other people’s privacy pretty much at all and loves getting into people’s shit but he’s VERY intense about his own privacy. He’s deeply protective of himself and his things and privacy. So he’s a wildly hypocritical guy.36.What makes them feel guilty?Not fucking much. He occasionally feels bad about how he’s treated someone but it’s not often and he’d never say it out loud. just kinda adds it to the pile of fuel for self-loathing.38.Would they consider themselves a Type A or Type B personality?

He’d be a Type A if it weren’t how his life has gone so I guess he’s like, a burnout Type A.

state-of-the-art tech powers an excellent PC strategy game • Eurogamer.net

We all love to jump on the hype train for the arrival of a hot new game, but Gears Tactics is a very different animal. Aside from viewing some early trailers, I approached final code with no expectations – I really didn’t know what to expect at all. I went into this one almost completely ‘unspoiled’ then but suffice to say, I’m blown away by the quality of this game: both for its gameplay and technological design.

Gears Tactics is a turn-based squad tactics game made by Splash Damage and The Coalition, where you take control of up to four individual Gears troopers. The aim? To clear out Locust enemies, set-up defences and utilise special abilities and weapons to complete the mission at hand. In between missions you retreat back to your mobile base to equip new gear, including improved weapons and armour, and to upgrade your hero characters or surviving troops. It’s a game that’s one part X-Com and one part Dawn of War 2: you have a command unit, a Paladin-like brawler, troopers that excel at closer range and subterfuge, and of course, the requisite heavy weapons guy. It’s a great squad tactics game, but what sets this one apart is its excellent triple-A presentation powered by one of the most potent engines in the business.

Much like Gears 5, Tactics has many cinematic sequences in between missions, showcasing a number of ultra high quality features, like lavishly detailed character models, great-looking bokeh depth of field, impressive facial animations and so much more. The triple-A graphical splendour is not just reserved for cutscenes, as the gameplay itself and environments are of a rather high quality, with rich textures, real-time shadows and dense geometry.

Gear Tactics: the Digital Foundry tech review. Everything you need to know about the game’s technology and optimal settings.

Gears Tactics utilises a further evolved version of the customised Unreal Engine 4 used to spectacular effect in Gears 5, so that means the game has special features only found in this bespoke revision of Unreal Engine 4 – like cone step mapping, an extremely effective dynamic resolution system, glossy screen-space reflections and many other features. However, as this is using a more recent iteration of the engine, further embellishments are added on top of Gears 5’s already impressive feature set. First and foremost are the use of Unreal Engine 4’s planar reflections. These are reflections that only work on a completely flat surface, usually parallel or perpendicular to the ground and usually accomplished by doubling the geometry below the render pane.

In a game like Gears Tactics, the camera is far above the playfield and at an angle where screen-space reflections are less effective than a first or third-person shooter. The overhead camera causes problems for screen-space reflections as there’s so little in screen-space that can actually be reflected. Planar reflections fix this problem handily, while also allowing for the underside of objects to be reflected on the ground.

But perhaps the biggest headline addition to the Gears engine comes in the form of Variable Rate Shading – a hot topic at the moment as Microsoft has been talking about it a lot in its next-gen console marketing. Gears Tactics is the first DirectX 12 game we have tested that allows you to explicitly toggle the feature. Variable Rate Shading reduces the shading detail of surfaces that are dark or in movement, or areas where pixels are overly similar in colour to pixels next to them. This saves on performance, while keeping the degradation of shading quality only to the inner surface of an object – areas where the human eye (hopefully!) cannot see the cutback in quality. Currently, this feature is only available to Nvidia’s Turing GPUs but as a part of DirectX 12 Ultimate, it is coming to future AMD’s RDNA 2 GPUs – and of course, the Xbox Series X.

In Wolfenstein: The New Colossus, I had a really hard time to noticing the quality degradation that happens with VRS and it also added around 10 per cent more performance at 4K resolution. However, in Gears Tactics, the performance differential is more stark based on the available presets. At 4K with the highest settings possible and with no dynamic resolution in play, Gears Tactics runs at 47fps on an RTX 2080 Ti. Turning on variable rate increases performance by 13 per cent, while switching to the performance mode increases frame-rate by 21 per cent! Is this truly the next-gen game changer the performance uplift suggests? Well, as you might expect, it’s complicated!

As I see it, there are two reasons why VRS has a greater effect on performance in this game than in Wolfenstein: The New Colossus (and indeed pseudo-sequel Wolfenstein: Youngblood). For starters, this game is more limited by its shading at ultra settings than Wolf TNC is at 4K, particularly when the planar reflections are in play. The second reason is because VRS in Gears Tactics appears to be somewhat more aggressive than that in the idTech 6 games. Even in the default on mode, it degrades regions of shading more aggressively than Wolf’s performance mode, with the impact to quality more pronounced in Tactics’ own performance alternative. Whether or not this trade-off is worth it is one of personal taste and one where you can balance VRS trade-offs with other performance wins.

I think the comparison to dynamic resolution scaling is important. Using with DRS or VRS, we can run Gears Tactics at 4K60 on RTX 2080 Ti, with everything ramped up. With DRS, pixel count is decreased on all areas of the presentation, while VRS selectively degrades the shading for some pixels while maintaining the overall resolution. In both modes, VRS is perhaps too aggressive but what particularly stands out is that UI elements have visible pixelisation – which are even more pronounced in the performance mode, as the screenshot gallery above demonstrates. Meanwhile, with DRS active, UI elements are softer and less clear but don’t have the same kind of visible aliasing. Inner surface detail with VRS can also have aliasing issues. However, if you look at object silhouettes, you can see how VRS’ method of increasing performance has its own advantages. The edges of objects like character models are crisper-looking than DRS, which affects the entire image.

With optimised settings (albeit with dynamic res disabled) the RX 580 runs better during the engine-driven cutscenes, but in gameplay, GTX 1060 closes the gap. We do recommend enabling DRS.

My personal preference in this game would be to utilise dynamic resolution scaling, because the VRS factor – even on the basic ‘on’ mode – is too aggressive for this type of game. Gears Tactics has a more laid back play speed and camera than standard triple-A fare. It does not possess the manic camera of an FPS, nor does it have the ultra-fast viewpoint of a racing game where the screens edges are constantly motion blurred. In a more static strategy presentation, you can see the quality degradation more obviously. Interestingly, in the more triple-A-like cutscenes, we go back to the kind of win we see in Wolfenstein – it’s hard to see the cutbacks to image quality, but the improvements to performance vary with the more variable content. Ultimately, for gameplay, I feel an even lighter VRS option is required for Gears Tactics and I do wonder if the UI pixelisation is a bug that needs addressing.

Beyond VRS, this is a game running on the Gears 5 engine, which means it features the same amazing graphics menu with dozens of options for tweaking the game’s visuals to your liking, with each option supplied with a preview picture showing how it exactly changes the presentation and how intensive it is in terms of performance for the respective components of your PC. Even the benchmark is improved over the already excellent Gears 5, with a frame-time graph added.

Optimised settings? First of all, I recommend using the dynamic resolution scaling. Gears Tactics’ DRS adjusts resolution quickly and on a very granular scale, while also temporal upsampling the result up to your chosen native resolution. In general it works wonderfully, so I definitely keep it enabled. Secondly, avoid the insane settings – they are not labelled as such here, but they are still there. I’d recommend turning off planar reflections as this can give you a 17 per cent performance increase. Likewise, turn off glossy reflections – you won’t lose that much fidelity owing to Gears Tactics’ camera and doing so increases performance by 11 per cent. A further tweak I recommend on top of this is to turn SSR quality to high from ultra: this slightly reduces their sharpness but increases performance by around three per cent.

We met up relatively recently with The Coalition at Microsoft HQ, to check out early work on Gears 5 running on Xbox Series X.

Shadow maps are expensive in this game, especially at ultra quality. Here, I recommend changing shadow map resolution to 2048×2048 and reducing the shadow quality to high. In general, this affects the precision of smaller shadow features, but it does not greatly impact the rest of the image due to the distance that the camera typically is at, and because screen-space contact shadows modify smaller shadows anyway. Here, going from ultra with 4K shadow maps to high with 2K shadow maps increases performance by around nine per cent. Beyond this, tweak ambient occlusion down from ultra to high, where you should see a frame-rate increase of around five per cent. With these optimised tweaks, you can boost performance in a worst-case scenatio by upwards of 70 per cent with comparatively minimal loss in overall visual quality. This is definitely worthwhile, especially for those of you with mid-range GPUs. Any stutter you see at this point is likely down to VRAM or lack of it, so tweaking all texture settings from ultra to high should resolve that issue.

The Radeon RX 580 and GTX 1060 remain our ‘go to’ graphics cards for mainstream testing and using optimised settings with dynamic resolution scaling enabled, you should be able to maintain 60 frames per second at a target 1440p resolution. Interestingly, without DRS enabled, AMD hardware has a small advantage rendering cutscenes, while GTX 1060 is faster in gameplay (and indeed in the game’s benchmark). At 1440p resolution, both GPUs were able to run smoothly with the highest quality textures.

In summary, I’m really impressed by the work delivered by The Coalition and Splash Damage here. Technologically, Gears Tactics runs very well and with the resources and technology of the mainline Gears franchise behind it, the game looks beautiful too. On top of that, Gear Tactics offers forward-looking features like Variable Rate Shading and while it’s not quite where it should be right now, with a bit of tweaking, it would be a no-brainer option to enable. Even without it, standard dynamic resolution scaling still does an excellent job in delivering added consistency to overall performance. Put simply, the strategy genre is an area where PC excels – and Gears Tactics is right up there with the best.
