Oh boy, Sonic the Hedgehog Annual 2022 is out and it’s absolutely amazing so I guess it’s time for me to share my thoughts on it and gush about every story. Here we go! Spoilers below!
Tumblr media
Guardians
Starting off with a Blaze story! I absolutely love how the Annuals give some time for some supporting characters to shine without hurting the story too much. And speaking of supporting characters who need a chance to shine MARINE IS BAAAACK!
Tumblr media
Okay, full disclosure, I have never actually played Sonic Rush Adventure, hell I haven’t so much as watched the cutscenes. So the extent of my knowledge about Marine is from her appearances in the Archie comics, and SonicSong182′s use of her. So, I don’t know why people don’t like Marine, but I love her and am so glad Blaze’s very own Tails has finally made another appearance!
But of course the real meat of the story comes from a character interaction I had somehow never thought of!
Tumblr media
It only makes sense that Blaze would go to Knuckles about her worries with being a guardian, the two don’t know each other well but they share the same role. It’s a very nice little talk that shows Blaze’s character growth with actually taking Knuckles’ advice because she WANTS to be around everyone again. Also love how Knuckles acknowledges that leaving Angel Island to help save the world is always a gamble because I think everyone was getting fed up of him leaving it behind so often lol
Tumblr media
I also just love the implication that Blaze invited Marine to join her on her little vacation. Understandable that she’d wanna stay behind but I hope we get to see more of her again. SPECIFICALLY because I want her to meet Silver and finally form that fantasy team.
Tumblr media
And hey I guess this means Blaze is gonna be sticking around the main crew awhile! GOOD! I love Blaze, she’s a wonderful character and I’m so glad Ian found a natural way to put her back into the story again without having to jump to constant dimensional stakes.
Uh... This would be the point where I jump to the next story but I just gotta take a moment to absolutely GUSH about Adam Bryce Thomas and Joana Lafuente’s artwork!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
LIKE LOOK AT ALL THIS! IT’S SO FUCKING PRETTY!!!
Also some appreciation for how fucking cute Blaze is when she smiles we love a girl who’s learned it’s okay to be happy
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Weapons
ALRIGHT I’VE STALLED LONG ENOUGH YOU SEE MY NAME, YOU SEE MY PFP, YOU SEE THE COVER I CHOSE TO USE, IT’S TIME TO TALK ABOUT THE OMEGA STORY BABY!!! (oh yeah and Gemerl’s there too)
I kid I kid, I love Gemerl and couldn’t be happier that he’s been added to the main lineup of Sonic’s friends, really thought everyone forgot about him after Advence 3.
So hey, we finally get that sparring match Omega and Gemerl teased and OH
Tumblr media Tumblr media
LOOK AT THEM GO!
We love a good fight that doubles as a moment for characters to get a better understanding of one another. That’s some good ass shonen shit right there.
I love how Omega really does see the potential in Gemerl, one who has gone toe to toe with Sonic and was pretty damn even with him, and offers him to join his side in actively destroying the Eggman Empire. But on the other end of the spectrum, yes Gemerl WAS built as a battle robot, but more importantly he was built as a successor to Emerl and was made to evolve. And he has greatly, gaining a genuine care for his new found family and perhaps even some form of emotion.
Tumblr media
Now, I wanna talk about this panel right after.
Tumblr media
So, Omega and Gemerl don’t have... Eyes or a mouth, so they can’t really convey any emotion with their face. But I’ve been known to read far too deep into Omega as a character, and something about the way he looks here is getting me to think he is genuinly taken aback about Gemerl’s statement.
First of all there is his face, which again, can convey no emotion, but he does have the head piece which can be angled to look like eyebrows. Often he’s seen at such an angle that he looks angry or threatening, but here it makes him look kinda wide eyed.
The second most damning piece of evidence is the fact that he is not on guard. At all. Omega is a robot built for destruction, who loves to fight, and is currently in a sparring match. But he is standing with his arms at his side staring at his oppent. He gets on guard in the very next panel but that’s awfully slow to him.
My two cents? Well, I think Omega takes a bit of what Gemerl says to heart, because, aside from breaking off Eggman’s ranks, Omega HASN’T evolved. He is still destructive, he will still destroy anyone who gets in his way, and he still may have some aggression towards Sonic. By all accounts, he is still Eggman’s creation. Now if Team Dark were friends like they’re supposed to be I could bring that up but Sega sucks now so--
Do I think this’ll lead anywhere? Probably not, and I’m likely reading too much into this, but I can always pretend that Omega is more of a character than he actually is, can’t I?
Anyway, I love how these two just beat the ever litting bolts out of each other and then carried each other back to Tails and Belle.
Tumblr media
And at long last, we got some brobots in the house.
Tumblr media
(Hey guys, your little sister, Belle, is also over there... Wanna include her...?) I’m constantly in need of Omega being Belle’s big brother I don’t care how OOC it would be.
Hero Camp
In all honesty I don’t have too much to say about this one, it’s cute, it’s fun, I find it funny that Cream feels the need to go to a camp to learn to be a hero after all the shit she’s been through.
Also this panel
Tumblr media
I don’t know why but I love it. For some reason I cannot hear Cream’s usual voice reading this, I think it’s just cause it’s not quite as nice as she usually is which you know what good for her.
Also LOVE the fact that the Restoration HQ has all this shit lmao
Anyway, Cream’s fun, Orbot and Cubot are funny, this was a nice little story. That’s all.
Future Growth
Oh you thought we were only getting an excuse for Blaze to stick around? THINK AGAIN!
Looks like Silver’s here to stay! Which I’m very glad about, time starts getting fuckity if he always comes back when his time is in crisis. It just makes no sense.
But at long last, we get some Rivals 2 acknowledgement
Tumblr media
Good choice of character to talk to Silver, writers. I’m proud of you.
Anyway I love the line of “Everything’s okay, but I’m not.” Silver’s always been an anxious mess, and it makes sense that he would feel like he’s doing something wrong if he doesn’t have something to save. Not to mention, with so much time spent with everyone in the past, he’s made some lasting friendships that he can’t have in his own time. I guess this means Silver will be sticking around, because he wants to. Which is nice.
Also this
Tumblr media
Anyone with this little ship must be very happy.
Another Grand Adventure For Jet the Hawk
First off, Jet’s room.
Tumblr media
Oh good lord there’s so much to point out here. I think my favorite part is the picture of him and Sonic with Sonic’s half very poorly torn off. Also happy birthday Jet!
But enough about Jet cause we’ve got WHISPER CONTENT!
Tumblr media
I’ve missed her. Please come back to us soon Whisper (i know she’ll be in an upcoming issue with Surge it’s just nice to see her here).
And now we’ve got Whisper, on Extreme Gear, shooting a badnik from it, and with her oh so rare moment of yelling because Jet is just THAT annoying.
Tumblr media
This story is very fucking good I highly enjoyed it.
Also love how she never got Jet out of the badnik’s hand that’s pretty fucking funny, like is he gonna be okay?
Tumblr media
A Rough Patch
Been too long since we’ve seen this idiotic duo, and I love how they have a big break up over rhyming. Rough and Tumble are so fucking good.
Tumblr media
This grouping is so odd I love it. Someone really realized Rouge and Tangle sounded similar to Rough and Tumblr and decided to roll with that and I respect them for that.
Tumblr media
These two are so fucking dumb I love them
Tumblr media
They are lucky they’re so strong because I don’t think they’d get anywhere in life without that fact.
Anyone stealing Rough and Tumble’s rhyming gimmick is like when Ash and his friends would steal the Team Rocket motto it’s so much fun.
Tumblr media
However I am legitimately upset that Tumble didn’t cap off the joke by mentioning that “mangled” and “Tangle” is a slant rhyme like come on it was right there!
And hey! Rouge has a Chaos Emerald now!
Tumblr media
I wonder if I should be keeping track of that. I’m pretty sure this is the first one we’ve seen since they were used at the end of the Metal Virus, but I could be wrong.
Conclusion
I want more. Honestly 2023 Annual cannot come sooner. I love these things so much, the differing art styles, the weird character matchups, the chance for less important characters to get a story to shine. It’s all so much fun!
Overall I don’t think it’s quite as good at the 2020 Annual, but that was telling tales in between all the Metal Virus chaos so it’s kinda hard to beat.
Also I just realized Shadow was absolutely no where to be seen in this, I don’t think he’s made an appearance since issue 36 in fact. We’re coming up on a year and a half since Shadow has been in the comics, it looks like Ian is really keeping his word with not writing Shadow stories if Sega is gonna be so awful about his characterization, and frankly good for him! I would rather not have Shadow in the comic then have the awful version of him Sega has forced upon the writers.
But this one had all the fun, goofy, character driven antics I so crave and even gave us Silver and Blaze has longer staying characters and the status of one of the Chaos Emeralds (if we’re keeping track).
And most importantly, OMEGA GOT A STORY 10/10
No seriously, I loved this, it’s not perfect, I probably won’t remember the Cream story by the end of the moneht, but it was fucking great to read overall.
9/10

Wow. You're sure putting in a lot of time and effort into a man you claim not to like. A normal person, with a normal, rational brain, would simply walk away and pay him no mind. Say you're jealous and go because girlie, it's embarrassing as fuck and so many blogs on here laugh at you behind the scenes. There's a whole ass group chat dedicated to just laughing at you and your friend's nonsense. That's how embarrassing you, and your friends, are. ///
Okay. Here we go.
First: this is absolutely not about jealousy. Bringing up problematic behavior and people needs to happen. Here’s the best part: you don’t like what’s being said, so you probably are part of the fucking problem.
@oh-my-damn has done nothing but listen and share experiences POC, myself included, have had with this, and why our feelings are the way they are. We may not agree on real or PR, but that doesn’t affect shit between us because we are fucking adults who can have grown ass conversations.
What she’s done, just by listening and not speaking over POC voices and experiences is way more than other mods on here have done. She posts the food and the bad. And if you’re uncomfortable with that, you’re part of the fucking problem.
Do you really think she nor anyone else who is friends with her actually care that there’s a ducking group chat made just to talk shit? No. Wanna know why? You probably don’t, but I’m still going to tell you.
It’s because she and her friends address the shit talking head on. There are no passive aggressive posts or asks, they don’t need to go on anon to say their piece. They talk about it to and in front of the people that cause the fucking issues in this fandom. Creating a group just to shit talk cause you’re too fucking scared or hypocritical to actually say it outright is being a fucking coward and a child.
Run back to your fucking group chat. You belong there. And trust, that’s not a good thing. Get the fuck on and outta here with this bullshit
Tumblr media
Listen. Y'all can make as many group chats about me as you fucking want. Y'all can even try to blame me for doxxing, or talking shit, or being jealous, or being a hater, or whatever the fuck you want.
At the end of the day, I'm here doing me. I'm living my fucking life, I come on here when I have time, but otherwise I go to Law School (yes, you read that right. Keep that in mind next time you want to harrass, honeys. Oh, and that's not even my first degree. It is my second one. So yeah, come suck my dick), I write occasionally about characters or storylines that intrigue me, and I talk to my friends (and also people who are more than friends but I digress), and SOMETIMES I speak about topics that MATTER. They matter to a lot of people and they SHOULD matter to you. And the reason they probably don't, is because you're a bigoted racist. There, I said it.
Fucking hell. Make that fucking group chat. I hope you even put my pfp as your fucking cover photo. I hope you name it "Mandy's Hate Squad". I hope you talk about me all day.
ALL DAY. TALK ABOUT ME ALL DAY.
Tumblr media
I am proud that I, little old me who started a blog without even knowing how to fucking use tumblr, am on your mind enough that you NEED A WHOLE ENTIRE CHAT TO DISCUSS ME AND WHAT I DO.
God. What an honor.
I will be handing out headshots and autographs soon.
Stay tuned for my con dates!
And @adulting-sucks? I love you. Thank you for being you, always ❤️
Oh, and I also want to add... That this entire ask from the original anon was created to, once again, DEFLECT. from the REAL ISSUES. Because that's what the Defenders do. They are apologists of REAL SHIT THAT SHOULD NOT BE EXCUSED. LIKE RACISM. AND ANTI-SEMITISM. AND FATPHOBIA.
I am sure they don't understand what it means when people start excusing that kind of shit. But luckily a lot of us do.
So fuck them.
Come suck my big sweaty balls you losers 🥰😘

Love the new pfp! And I’ve watched parts of teen wolf and I’m just wondering which seasons would you recommend. Obviously season 6 is a no go.
Honestly I think Seasons 1-4 are all perfect. I understand the criticisms people have towards Season 4, and yeah, plot wise it's messier and not as good as the previous, but I am absolutely in love with all the character stuff and it's honestly my favourite season overall. Also there’s nothing about the messy plot writing that ruins anything. It doesn’t take the attention away from the characters, there’s no new information that undermines previous seasons. The plot isn’t great but it also doesn’t really matter which means it doesn’t ruin anything.
Season 5 isn’t that good, but it’s not nearly as big of a nose dive as Season 6. I actually think the setup to it is good, a.k.a Season 5A, but the pay off to it just completely misses the point. There is good character stuff there, though, no complete character assassination like in Season 6, it’s all very sad lol. If you’re someone who enjoys angst you’ll probably really like season 5, despite it’s flaws. 
And regarding Season 6, I can’t really say that I don’t recommend watching it. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not good. My primary problem isn’t just that I disagree with the endgames, it’s just that the writings really bad. It was a real slog to get through for me, the only thing I really enjoyed was the Malia stuff, even though I don’t like that they made her mend her relationship with Peter after she explicitly chose to be a Tate the season before. 
I watched Season 6 mainly because I’m writing a Teen Wolf fic and I needed to cover all seasons, but I would’ve still done it if I didn’t need to. I’m just the sort of person who always finishes shows even when they’ve gone bad because I just like having the entire context to things. It’s your choice if you wanna watch Season 6 or not, but I can’t say that you won’t get anything good out of it if you do. There’s a lot of really cool and smart people in this fandom and the way some of them rewrite and recontextualize Season 6 is really good and compelling. Fandom really just changes the show watching experience that way. All the Allison/Nolan parallels are my favourite things brought up through this.

Request:   Heya! First of all, I just want to say, wow!!! I loved wvry word of the Vader x Reader you did, and reading your notes, I really don't mind it as an AU! I've never really read anything to do with Sith Obi-Wan before, though to be fair I only just got into Star Wars again 😅 This isn't really a request, but from what I can see from your posts, you seem to really like Obi-Wan, well, Ewan Mcgregor in general 😂I wanted to ask if you could write another x Reader, but this time a Sith Obi-Wan AU?Thanks for reading! -Red ❤ p.s, @rey-is-not-a-skywalker, you're welcome for requesting the sith x reader, I guess you're obsessed as I am 😂 p.s the second, I'm loving the new pfp!
Requested by: ​Red
Summary: The reader has some news for Sith Lord Obi-Wan Kenobi
Warnings: The reader is AFAB, pregnancy

Notes: You would be correct in assuming I love Obi-Wan and Ewan McGregor as a whole. Also I’m glad you like the new pfp! I am also in love with it! :)  Did I self indulge with this oneshot? I think you know the answer. Leave me alone, I am too much of a simp at this point.  I have never been pregnant, so some of this may be inaccurate. 
Tumblr media
Not my gif
An old Jedi’s fall from grace was a never a pretty sight to see, it was no glorious tale to tell from any side. It was full of hurt, pain, hatred, suffering. This was more than true for the fallen Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. His downfall was the least expected out of those who turned away from the light, he had always been the most loyal of men, the most faithful of soldiers.  Perhaps, in part at least, this was what drove him away from his original allegiance. He was an exceptional leader of course, the most fantastic of generals, but besides that, in the larger picture, to the Jedi Order as a whole he was nothing more than a faceless defender of the galaxy. Just another of the tens of thousands Jedi.  Another factor that led to the man’s path to the dark side, was you. What you made him feel. The passion, the love. An indescribable feeling, all he could say about it was that it was truly wonderful. He did not mind the fear, or the hatred that came with it, for you made it all worth it. The massive highs compared to the lows outweighed them greatly, and thus he gave it all for and to you. His passion, his loyalty, his love. Everything he had, every fiber of his being, he gave it all to you. If he could turn the worlds on theirs heads, and you gave the word, he’d do it. 
You had initially been shocked at the man’s sudden change of life-plans and of loyalty. Though, the more you thought about it, the more you began to convince yourself, perhaps he had made the right choice. He wasn’t so uptight in regards to public affection now- he’d often smother you with kisses in front of company, or hold your arm or hand as you wander about in cities or halls. Despite the Sith being the darker beings of the Force, the life you now lived was almost... Peaceful. After a while, you very much enjoyed it. There weren’t so many rules now, and you both felt free.  Though, not everything about your new life was free or peaceful. There were times that Obi-Wan was pulled away from you much like in the way he was during the times of the Republic and the Jedi Order. He’d be wrenched from your embrace for weeks or months at a time, and the holocom conversations you shared were not the same as actual conversations. The comforting presence you both gave to one another were missing, and it was painfully obvious to the pair of you. 
One particular night, whilst Obi-Wan had been away, you were staring out at the stars- each of them twinkling from their position on the blanket of the night from their positions thousands of light-years away. They fascinated you every night, though you knew some of the planetary systems by name and had visited a few yourself, you couldn’t help but imagine what could be hiding away on them,  what could be awaiting discovery. They also distracted you from something plaguing your mind on this particular night, something you needed to get off of your chest. It had been bothering you more and more over the last few days, ever since you had made the discovery. 
You are brought from your train of thought by the bleeping of your comm. You move leisurely to answer it, there was only one person who could be calling you at this time of night, but you knew he wouldn’t mind you taking a moment longer than usual. You answer your lover’s call, and a murmur on the other end of the line hushes- he must have been talking to someone as he awaited your answer. “Ah, my beloved.. I thought you had fallen asleep.” He mused quietly, his smug expression clear even through the blue hologram, and you can’t help but chuckle at him.  “No. I was looking out at the stars,” You tell him, plainly. Sunsets and night skies held a special place in both of your hearts; you had spent many nights on Coruscant looking out at them, telling each other the wishes you had made on shooting stars that you rarely saw. You heard Obi-Wan sighed quietly. He knew your habits when he was away, and what they meant. “I should be returning soon, my dear.” He assured you, lowering his voice to nothing more than a whisper. “I am trying to get this done, you know, but it’s not as easy as-”  “I know, I know.” You cut him off, wrapping your arms around yourself, looking down at the floor. Out of the corner of your eye, you see Obi-Wan’s brows furrows, clearly he’s noticed your odd behaviour. 
“Something’s bothering you.” Obi-Wan notes, tucking his hands into the sleeves of his long robe. “Tell me,” He demanded. Though his tone was soft, it was still very much a command. You start to shake your head at him.  “I would rather not... Not over the comm.” You start, looking over to his projection. He looks even more concerned than before- partially because you disobeyed an order from him, and partially because you were willingly withholding information from him. You never did either of those things, not with him. You were both in balance, and trusted each other completely. He knew this had to be incredibly serious for you to say something like this.  “Then I shall return immediately.” He no longer cared for his assignment; he would much prefer that he knew you were safe and out of harm’s way. You start to shake your head more frantically.  “No, Kenobi- you must finish the task the Emperor has given you, he-”  “Can wait.” Obi-Wan finished abruptly. You could tell from the way he stood and held himself- chest out, shoulders back, spine rigid and straight-  that he could not be swayed on this. “He can wait.” He repeated, wanting the words to sink in, for you more than himself. “I will be returning, whether you agree with me or not. I will be back by the morning.” And with that, those final harsh words, he ended the call. You sighed quietly, running your hands over your face in exasperation and stress. You hadn’t wanted to pull your lover away from the mission he had been given, you had wanted to wait just a few more days till he returned as had been planned. You sighed deeply, moving away from the comm, heading towards bed as you strip off your clothes.  You nestle under the covers, wrapping your arms around yourself for some comfort. 
By morning, you were well rested. As your eyes started to crack and flutter open, you became acutely aware of the arm around your waist, and the head buried into the back of your neck. You shuffle slightly to look over your shoulder, smiling slightly at the peaceful expression on the face of the sleeping man behind you. By rights, you didn’t even have to turn over to know that it was Obi-Wan, you knew the feel of his aura and his touch. Still, it provided a sense of comfort, knowing with more certainty that it was him. You shuffle round to face him fully, brushing some of his auburn locks away from his closed eyes. His nose scrunches ever so slightly at the contact; and he too starts to wake up. It’s a slow process for him, and always had been. Even during his time serving the Order; though your mornings together were few and far between, you had noticed this little pattern of his. His eyes crack open like yours had done, and a drowsy smile moves over his lips.  “Good morning, darling...” He yawned softly, before pressing a gentle kiss to your jaw. “You look stunning...” He told you, his lips still pressed against your skin as he gave you the compliment- no doubt the first of many that morning.  “You flatter me, Obi..” You murmur in reply, and presses kiss after feather-light kiss over your jaw and neck.  “I speak only the truth for you, my love...” He trailed off for a moment, as he started to push himself up onto his elbows. “Now... Onto business...” He mused, “You still need to tell me what’s bothering you.” He pointed out, and he was right, as he often was. “So, I would start talking, my dear.” 
Though his demeanour is playful, you know you shouldn’t argue this time around. You sit up, leaning against your pillows as your try to think of how to start talking about your recent discovery- despite it’s wonderful connotations, it was not as easy as one might think. “Obi...” You begin.  “Darling.” He replied, hardly missing a beat.  “I have some... Rather pleasing news.” He nods, prompting you to continue. “You... Are going to be a father.”  It takes him a moment to actually register your words, for their meaning to sink in. He practically tackles you back into the bed when it clicks somewhere in his mind, the widest smile on his face. He’s laughing breathlessly, hardly able to believe the news or contain his excitement because of it.  “Is it so?” He asked, his hand splaying over your stomach as he spoke. “My, my...” He mumbled- and it was moments like this that showed how much he had changed from his old ways. Had you given such news to him whilst he was still a Jedi- he would have panicked at first, asked if you wished to keep the child, and if you had done he would have likely asked you to leave to a slightly more rural planetary system. He had no fear now, and so didn’t need to ask you. He accepts it with ease in these times, and is more than happy to receive such news.  He had no fear in rearing a child now, so long as you wished for it too. He paused as this thought washed over him, then gave you a curious look. “Are we... Keeping the child?” He asked, and you couldn’t help but chuckle.  “I think we could be wonderful parents... If you’re not away so much.” You poke your finger into his chest.  “Alright... I will discuss it...” He mused, resting his head near you abdomen, gazing at it in wonder. He could hardly believe that your child- the fruits of both of you- was growing there, and he was more than just excited to meet his child. He pulled you close again, whispering sweet nothings and reassurances as the morning wound on, till you eventually fell asleep again in his arms, comforted by his presence.

📢 Quick PSA on my art/reposting
═════════•°•  •°•═════════ Hey everyone, I didn’t think I would actually have to do this but here I am. I would like to just clear a few things up here and just move on because dealing with this again is rather bothersome as I personally have better things to do than this. 
First off, I would like to make it very clear that I do not mind my art being reposted on certain platforms (i.e. Instagram, Tumblr, Wattpad..) as long as there is PROPER CREDITING and NO changes to the actual art piece (i.e. distorting/removing my watermark/signature, editing/altering my art in any way, covering up parts of the art..) You also need to ask permission BEFORE POSTING. ALWAYS.
The issue I have come across lately and have in the past, is people screenshotting or saving my artwork and posting it anywhere they want without my permission or giving me credit. I do not like it when people do this and it is quite literally stealing my artwork. It is not appreciated by anyone in the art community.  Just last night I was informed about a user on Instagram that goes by “Cupheadofficial__” who has been doing just this and with other artist’s work as well as my own. If you want to check out the post providing screenshots of the stolen work go visit it here. 
»»---------------------►
“What is considered proper credit?”
✧ A clear mention of who the artist is, and a link to the artist’s profile/social media. Don’t claim the art as your own.
“What about comic translations?”
✧ I welcome translators! I actually love it that people are that invested in putting the time and effort to translate things I have made so others can enjoy it as well. Just as long as they ask permission and get the “Okay” from me beforehand. The translations must also be accurate as possible. All of this is alright.
“Can I repost your comic?”
✧ No you may not, unless you are translating it you may not take my comic/art and post it anywhere else unless I say otherwise. My comic is staying on Tumblr unless I decide to move it other places. This includes comic panels and frames from the comic. 
“Can I make your art as my profile picture?”
✧ Yeah go for it, you do not need permission from me if you want to make one of my pieces your pfp. Just give me proper credit somewhere on your profile where I and others can see it and don't change up the art.
”Can I use your art as a reference for my own drawing?”
✧ That is a no. I know some of you like using other peoples art as references but you cannot do that with mine. There have just been too many instances where my art gets traced or copied completely. 
“What if I see someone else stealing?”
✧ report them. Simple. Though you do not have to, I would appreciate it if you could also inform the artist about the situation. Its highly appreciated! 
Alright that's my spiel for now on the matter, stuff like this will not be tolerated here, so thanks for taking the time to read this.

anyway I need to go to bed but I have too much energy so I am channeling it into headcanons. here u go species headcanons for Everyone on the Dream smp with explanations because I’ve put a TON of thought into this. They’re probably like half contradicted by canon but fuck it My City Now.
Dream- A (juvenile) stage of being a god. He, DreamXD, and Drista have become known as “dreamons” but that’s technically a separate species, all spawned from them. He's not really focused on being worshipped in his own right, preferring power in the mortal realm, though he’s not averse to pretending to be his brother (the god worshipped by Church Prime) or his sister (a minor goddess of death worshipped by many hidden cults) if it can help him get power. He’s got pure white skin everywhere except his face (which is pale but human-like), black blood, entirely green eyes, pointed ears, fangs, claws, and digitigrade legs ending in hoof-like claws.
George- A human, the only human on the whole server. Humans are pretty rare, vastly outnumbered by hybrids but outnumbering any other species, and “pure” humans (what we'd consider to be a completely normal appearing human) are all but nonexistent. For example, George has eyes with dark sclera and white irises.
Sapnap- A blaze hybrid. He’s got a few rods surrounding him and his eyes blaze with fire. It’s usually just warm but not hot enough to hurt but if he's agitated or upset it can easily burn hot enough to set things ablaze.
Callahan- A reindeer hybrid. He’s got antlers, reindeer ears, fur around his arms, and hooves.
Awesamdude- A creeper hybrid. He's tauric, with four insect like legs. His skin and is green and mottled and has a texture similar to leaves. His eyes are pitch black. He has a tendency to make hissing sounds when stressed, though he can’t explode like a full blooded creeper.
Alyssa- A mouse hybrid, with large mouse ears and a long tail. This definitely isn’t an in joke for the thousands of hours I spent browsing TVTropes as a child and the “what happened to the mouse” tROPE SHUT UP.
Ponk- A demon hybrid, with pointed ears, slit pupils, a small spaded tail, and small horns.
BadBoyHalo- A full blooded demon, with pointed ears, a tall stature, pitch black skin and hair, fangs, claws, hooves, a long spaded tail, long horns, and small bat like wings. He’s rather self conscious about how intimidating he looks. He's also a lich (with Skeppy as his phylactery) which is why he has pure white eyes (a trait the undead share).
TommyInnit- An absolute mess, genetic wise, since I’m taking Tommy's joke about being born in a lab and running with it. He's mostly angel, and was basically cloned from Phil's DNA (from a feather that fell off his wings that somehow someone got a hold of) but had a bunch of other hybrid and human DNA mixed in to make him somewhat stable enough to actually survive gestation. He has very small, dark wings that are useful for balance and little else, fangs, claws, and pointed ears. His bones are very light, making him fragile but a lot more dexterous. His blood is slightly off a human's, being slightly pinkish. His freckles, wings, blood, and eyes glow slightly and are patterned like the night sky. Technically undead as of his resurrection, and maintains the many injuries of his death permanently (bruises stay and don’t heal but don’t worsen, broken limbs can be moved at unnatural angles, ect.), pale, corpse like skin, and one of his eyes turned pure white.
Tubbo- A ram hybrid, with small curved ram horns, horizontal pupils, ram ears, a tail, and hooves. Nice and simple after the absolute mess that was Tommy.
Fundy- A limited shapeshifter, able to change his species, though he prefers to be in a fox-like form. He inherited this from Sally, who had similar abilities, though with more strength. He's always got certain features he inherited from each parent that he can’t change though- wings, pale skin, and ice-like freckles from Wilbur, and salmon scales coating his wings and cheeks, and ginger-and-white hair from Sally.
Punz- A dragon hybrid, with dark horns, dark sclera and slit pupils, wings just large enough for limited flight, a strong tail, fangs, claws, and blue scales coating his cheeks, wings, tail, arms, and legs. Has a natural inclination to sleep in a pile of his wealth he only holds off on when he feels it’s at risk of being stolen (which, since this is the Dream SMP, is almost constantly).
Purpled- An enderman hybrid, with small horns, pointed ears, purple blood, and ender particles surrounding him. Parts of his arms and legs are covered in leathery, pure black skin.
Wilbur- Half angel, half fucking refrigerator because cc!Wilbur hates us (affectionate). His skin is unnaturally, icy pale, and his blood is an icy blue. His freckles are the colour of ice reflecting. He's got wings from his father, large enough to glide, but they’re pale coloured and slightly transparent. He has fangs claws, and pointy ears. His blood, wings, and eyes glow slightly and are patterned like the night sky. As Ghostbur, he’s got the injuries of his death apparent at all times, though they don’t hinder him or cause him pain, corpse like skin, pure white eyes, and is permanently transparent.
JSchlatt- A ram hybrid. He’s got large ram horns, dark sclera and horizontal pupils, a ram tail, fur around his arms, and hooves.
Skeppy- A construct made to be Bad's phylactery. He's fully made of diamond, and appears as a moving human statue (though entirely made out of diamond), though he has limited shape shifting ability to change his “hair” and “clothes”, though he has to remain the same mass. He has some small red detailing on him out of redstone (which was used partially in his contruction). The egg flipped the red and teal in his colour scheme. Also he's smalllllllllllll.
Eret- Part ghost, due to being descended from Herobrine. She has pure white eyes, pointy ears, and under stress he becomes partially transparent. They tend to hide their nonhuman features (ears under hair or hats and eyes under sunglassses) and are often mistaken for human.
Jack Manifold- Started as a wolf hybrid, with large wolf ears and a tail. After dying, he came back from hell as a hellhound with red and blue “flames” coming from his eyes, ears, and replacing his missing tail he lost in one of his deaths with two made of this fire. The fire is chillingly cold to the touch, and not warm. His eyes are also monocolour, though in heterochromatic red and blue instead of the usual pure white found in undead.
Niki- A moth hybrid, with antennae, monocolour amber eyes, fluffy wings, and more fluff around her neck, wrists, and torso. These and her hair are patterned gold and black, though as of now she’s dyed them all pink. Idk I just feel like moths fit her for some reason.
Quackity- A duck hybrid, with golden wings and webbed hands and feet. He’s also a shapeshifter of sorts, however instead of shifting into different forms he shifts into different beings, from alternate realities that never came to be. These can be used to shift into near identical copies of those around him, to impersonate them, or to shift into alternate versions of people (like Mexican Dream to Dream). These aren’t Quackity, though, and as such they have their own pool of canon lives, and while he has lots of influence over them they can still act autonomously.
Karl Jacobs- An inter dimensional being made of time itself. While his current form is mostly human, he has technicolour rainbow blood, freckles, and patches on his skin, along with clock-shaped pupils that change with the time. His “natural” form is a vaguely humanoid mess of ever shifting colour.
HBomb- I didn’t know what to do with him at first- he was a cow hybrid in my pfp set- but I just think the idea of him being a chill cat hybrid who turns full nyaa whenever he’s in a maid dress to be funny so he’s a cat hybrid now. With dyed-white cat ears and a dyed-white cat tail.
Technoblade- A piglin hybrid primarily, but he’s definitely got some weird traces of other species. He’s got tusks, pink hair, pink pig ears, a pig tail, and hooves, but he’s also got paws from some other animal hybridisation in his blood, and has a tallness that suggests demon blood somewhere down the line. His red eyes aren’t natural, and only occurred after he was sacrificed to be the vessel of the Blood God.
Antfrost- A cat hybrid, with blond and brown fur, a cat tail, paws both on his hands and feet, and cat ears. He’s also got split pupils and blue sclerae (though a different shade to his irises).
Philza- An angel- the creation of a god or goddess to help serve them (Dreamon's would be an example of the angels the Dream's can create, though they’re primarily running wild nowadays.) The creation and servant of one of the gods of death, Kristen, to serve her in the mortal realm. He’s got very large feathered dark wings, pupilless unnaturally bright eyes, pointy ears, fangs, claws, and dark blood the colour of the night sky. His wings, eyes, freckles and blood glow brightly and are patterned like the night sky. Injuries reveal that he's fully inhuman under his skin, appearing to be a void of colour that also glows and is patterned like the night sky. His crows, who are messengers from the afterlife, have this same pattern on their feathers.
Conner- I don’t know much about him tbh but. He’s just a hedgehog hybrid. I mean he’s joked enough about canonically being the kid of Sonic and Elise. He’s got blue hedgehog ears and a tail, and blue spines mixed in with his dark hair.
Captain Puffy- A sheep hybrid, with small curled sheep horns, sheep ears, a fluffy sheep tail, hooves, and hair curly and soft like wool. The split in her hair between brown and white is natural, though she keeps a small section dyed rainbow.
Vikkstar- Another angel, though of a god long gone. His entire body, even his “clothes” (which are made of flesh) glow intensely bright and have the pattern of the night sky.
LazarBeam- A gingerbread hybrid, which I’d say is dumb but we’ve already had a refrigerator hybrid so. I don’t know what else to say here.
Ranboo- Half enderman, half god of some sort. Has small horns, pointy ears, an inhumanly wide mouth with fangs, claws, digitigrade feet ending in hoof-like claws, pure black and white skin, pure black and white hair and freckles on the opposite side of the skin, red and green heterochromatic eyes barely distinguishable from their sclera, and red and green blood. Hmm, I wonder what other character shares similar descriptions... :)
FoolishG- A more matured god than Dream. Appears to be made entirely out of gold, with his hair and freckles appearing like copper. His pure green eyes have a similar texture to emeralds. Also he’s like. Massive. He’s like eleven Skeppy's.
Hannah- A nymph of the forests. Has prehensile vines and flowers flowing in her hair all the way to the ground, and half of her face and one of her arms are entirely made of these prehensile vines and flowers. Makes flowers grow in her step, after being corrupted by the egg they wither around her instead.
Charlie- Slime hybrid. Honestly just kind of got the most impractical parts of being a hybrid, having random sections of skin changed into green slime which drips everywhere and kind of gets in the way. It doesn’t seem to bother him though.

{No one listens to Manuela}- Dedue Molinaro x Reader
ahehehehem... hear me out- a one shot type fanfic with a reader and dedue. the dorms at the officer's academy had fire places and us as the reader are struggling to build a fire during winter. our dorm is right next to dedue's so we go to his room and ask him if we can stay in there- we end up sleeping on the floor but dedue makes sure we're bundled up tight in blankets wjfow
grrr this would be so cute
@sonicbodypillow Submission 
-----------------------------
{ First, love your pfp. Been reading AOT since it first started and am so glad it’s getting the traction it deserves (the only person who can match Ashe for me is Armin lol). Second, damn this is just so cute lol. I normally do requests in the order I get them but I am a sad noodle today and want to write this. Sorry to anyone else waiting but I need me some soft Dedue right now } 
Jk about the title lol. It’s actually “Fire Bug” but legit none of these people listen to their school nurse and they better start smh 
Knuckles wrapped against wood three times, each one earning a thump. Not too loud to wake someone from sleep, but hard enough to grab their attention if awake. 
“Dedue?” they whispered, tapping against the door with a bit more force, “Dedue are you awake? Hello?” 
Silence. They sighed, pulling the comforter wrapped around their shoulders a bit tighter. Nights at Garreg Mache always seemed to be when the temperature dipped to near Fargeus level lows. Each student was permitted to have a small fire pit in their dorm during the winter since the monastery would nearly freeze over. Not having one lit was dangerous, as the students would risk falling ill or developing hypothermia. Professor Manuela especially stressed the importance of restocking wood before curfew fell, but it was an easy task to forget. 
(Y/N) stood for a few moments praying for their friend to answer. Dedue was the only one nearby that was ever awake at such hours, and they hoped he would have wood to spare. With only a few logs in their room there was no way a fire would last more than a few hours. 
After what felt like hours they heard the floorboards creak, followed by the dim light of a candle flowing through the crack of the door. 
“Who is it?” he asked, voice stern with no trace of fatigue. 
“(Y/N)” 
The door instantly opened, the man on the other end scrunching his brow at his late night visitor. 
“It’s long past curfew. Why are you out of your room?” 
“I ran out of wood. I know you normally go to bed late and...” They trailed off, reaching out of their cocooned blanket to gesture to his room. 
“May I come in? It’s been a while since I could feel my toes,” His gaze trailed to their feet, which were only covered by thin socks. Stepping aside he held the door open, and they followed without a word. 
“Rest a moment. I will brew tea,” he said, watching them sit in front of his fire before grabbing a kettle. 
“Thank you, but I don’t want to bother. If you could lend me some wood I’ll leave you to rest” 
“No need. I only have enough for one fire,” 
“Ah...” He watched them curl under their blanket, clearly adverse to leaving the warmth. Dedue hadn’t any plans of them leaving and hoped that was clear by offering a beverage. He placed the filled kettle over the lit wood, before settling himself at his desk. 
“You will remain here for the night, and in the morning we will resupply before class,” 
“Oh no no, I can’t impose on you like that,” 
“It is not an imposition if I am offering,” The blanket fell from their shoulders and pooled on the floor. Dedue seemed indifferent at the scenario, but his friend only flushed more as he insisted. There was yet another awkward pause between the two that held until the kettle screamed. He moved to reach for the pot, yet caught glimpse of a peaceful smile on (Y/N)’s face. His own lips twitched slightly, glad to see they no longer trembled with chills. 
“Thank you,” they spoke as he handed over a mug of liquid warmth. 
“Do not mention it,” he held his own, joining them in comfortable silence. No forced conversation, just the lulling sounds of a crackling fire and each other’s comfort. 
“It’s time we rest. Tomorrow begins training for finals,” he spoke, yet received no response. Slumped close to the pit his friend slept, mug still clutched in their hands. Dedue merely sighed, allowing a miniscule smile to grace his cheeks before gently taking the cup from them. He nearly carried them to the bed, but decided against it since they could be a light sleeper. 
Instead he pulled out a spare pillow, and guided them to rest a safe ways from the flame. He covered them with another blanket for security, watching them snuggle deeper into the fabric. All seemed calm, and as he laid down to rest the room felt more comforting than it had in many months. 
It was home-like, cozy; yet not because of the fire. He’d normally scold (Y/N) for their carelessness, but this time he’d be happy for a repeat.

I made BTS Edits...on PicsArt
Just recently I signed up for PicsArt a website where you can edit any images you want, make a book cover for Wattpad, or make edits for school (for presentations to make your schoolwork look amazing and not boring). Just a couple of days ago I got bored and I was on Pinterest when I saw amazing BTS fanarts and edits and I was like “Man I wish I can be talented as these people who made these amazing BTS artworks” even though I am talented on a regular sketching book with sketching pencils I never really tried out making artworks online and so I opened up PicsArt and I was like ‘What if I created my own edits?’ so I gave it a shot and here is what I made, BTS as 7 Elements of Life
DO NOT REPOST AND DO NOT STEAL  1. Jungkook as Ice/Water:
Tumblr media
(the picture doesn’t belong to me I found it on pinterest and did the editing) This edit ended up becoming my Wattpad pfp (for those who don’t follow me on Wattpad) 
Along with 2 more Jungkook edits:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Decided to recreate Butterfly Jungkook cause it looked amazing)
2. Jimin as Fire
Tumblr media
This was actually requested by a friend of mine who became a BTS fan and Jimin became her bias. After making Jimin I was impressed by the work I made in Picsart and I wanted to do more so I made more. I made the rest of BTS boys as the Elements of Life. 
I know some of the elements I edit in with the boys doesn’t go according to their personality like water should've been Jimin and Fire should've been Suga but I decided to switch things up only thing I haven’t change for Elements and Personality is Light/Jhope.
3. Jhope as Light/Wind
Tumblr media
No matter what edit or whatever I do with Jhope he will always be the Light a sunshine. I was genuinely impressed by the way I made the sunlight aura on Jhope’s face because it is true the moment you see his face and his smile you see the light aura coming off of him. No matter what he is Element Light. 
4. Jin as Time
Tumblr media
Idk why but for some reason I see Jin as a magical person almost like Doctor Strange I don’t know I get that type of vibe off of him but here we have Jin as element Time which I didn’t know was an element in the first place but I ain’t complaining. And of course I went out on Pinterest to find the hottest picture of Kim Seokjin and I did. You have no idea how many times I tried not to drool over this hot Jin pic...
Alright moving on
5. Suga as Nature/Earth
Tumblr media
I was surprise to see a pic of Suga in middle of Nature. I was genuinely shocked to see that Suga loves nature...I am mostly shocked that our Agust D loves anything...besides Fire. I think this edit is the most cutest thing I could ever make he has wonder in his eyes so I was like what would grab my followers on Tumblr (who are BTS fans as well) attention to Suga, oh edit a green butterfly on his nose and have other butterflies fly around him while there are leaves around him. I think this was cute I was impressed. 
6. Namjoon as Thunder
Tumblr media
This is my mom’s favorite out of all of the edits I made. Her bias is Namjoon and ONCE AGAIN for some odd reason I see Namjoon as Lightning...or Thunder...GOD OF THUNDER THE MIGHTY THOR so Jin as Doctor Strange and Namjoon as Thor. Well given how clumsy both Namjoon and Thor are I think that is why I see Namjoon as Thor. Once again I went out on Pinterest to find me the hottest pic of Namjoon not just for me but for my mom...ahem. This edit was a little bit challenging as you can see I tried to make it more realistic than anything and I think I nailed it...hopefully.
Last but not least
7. Taehyung (V) as Force/energy
Tumblr media
I have been trying to get thoughts on this edit from my friends but...they won’t tell me anything. My girlfriend thinks it looks good...but I just don’t know if it needs improvements. I mean I kind of like it I like how I added the energy balls on his hands and have his kick be another force he’s sending out. I don’t want to keep editing it because I am afraid of ruining it. so I am leaving the edit alone.  Well that is all of the edits I made I can make more edits if you guys want to send me requests. I hope you all like it :) PicsArt is really good I love it so much.

Tumblr media
You’ve been matched with an Astomi!
Originating in Greek and Roman mythology, Astomies, also known as the Gangines, are an ancient legendary race of people who had no need to eat or drink anything at all. They survived by smelling apples and flowers. Megasthenes, a historian and Asian Indian ethnographer, located them at the mouth of the river Ganges. They are described as being hairy and having no mouth. When traveling, they would carry roots, flowers and apples to smell. They could die by smelling a strong, unpleasant smell.
Tumblr media
There was a forest reserve near your home that you frequented to draw and paint. There was a section of it that was strangely green all year round, and you weren’t sure why. None of the trees were evergreens, so the hidden grove should have lost leaves and turned grey like all the greenery around it in the winter, but it never did. You never went into it, and you never saw anyone near it. It was just an oddity no one knew anything about. Lots of people said it was haunted.
The more logical minded people claimed there was a hot spring somewhere in the grove that kept the trees green, but that it was toxic to people, which is why no one ever went there. Though, that didn’t make sense to you. If it was toxic, why were there flowers and birds? The wildlife seemed unaffected by whatever odd supposed toxin existed in the grove.
It had struck your interest more than once, but you never went in. You loved ghost stories, but you weren’t necessarily keen on being in one. And the threat of a toxin was enough to keep you from venturing in.
Though, one day, as you were wandering close, you heard a mournful whimpering, as if someone were in pain. Your worry about ghosts and toxins flew out of your mind as you ran into the grove, looking for whatever was making the sound.
“Hello?” You called. “Is someone there? Are you okay?”
“Please!” They called. “Can you help me?”
“Yes,” You said, pushing past the thick foliage. “Just hold on, I’m coming. Keep talking to me so I can find you! What’s your name? How old are you?”
“Geras!” They said, coughing. “I’m ninety-eight seasons!”
“Seasons?” What was ninety-eight divided by four? “So you’re twenty-four?”
“I suppose,” They said. “But we don’t measure time that way.”
“We?”
“The people of the grove,” They said. “My family and I.”
“Wait,” You said, untangling yourself from a tree. “People live in here? I thought there was a toxin in the air that killed people.”
“What?” They actually laughed, which turned into a hacking cough. “No, of course not.”
“What about the ghosts, then? Are they real?” You asked with a laugh, but you were met with silence. “Geras? Geras! Keep talking.”
“Hurry, please,” Geras said, their voice hoarse. “Please.”
“Almost there,” You said. You finally managed to fight your way through heavy branches and dense underbrush and into what looked like an apple orchard. There were all sorts of apple trees there, and in between a copse of heritage apples was a person laid between the rows, unmoving.
“Geras?” You called. You couldn’t see much of them beyond the long brown hair all over. You could only tell that they were tall and gangly.
Next to them was a bag that stank to high heaven. At first you thought it could be poisons, but you looked inside and found a litany of gross hunting sprays: skunk essence, liquid ass, insect repellents, deer musk, and the like. The odor was so strong that it made you gag.
“Is this the problem?” You asked, breathing through your shirt. They nodded weakly. You weren’t surprised. It made you feel woozy, too. “I’ll get rid of it and come back to check on you, okay?”
“Yes, please,” They gasped.
You fought your way back out of the grove into the dead winter forest, back to the hiking trail to find a trash receptacle. It took nearly thirty minutes to find one, and another twenty to return to the grove. By the time you got back, Geras was not there. Worried, you followed the row up to a house.
The house was… old. Very old. So old that you couldn’t even determine what style or era it was from. It was tall and square, made of rough brick and thatched roof. There seemed to be no windows, but the entire front wall was open and had a rolled up flap that closed that side from the elements.
From the open side, you could see people moving around, hurried, almost frenzied, and you called out to them.
“Hey!” You said. “I’m looking for Geras! He… or she.. or they passed out from some garbage that got thrown in here. Are they okay?”
They all stopped and turned to stare at you from the shadow, and it was then you realized that there was no lights or electricity. There wasn’t even a power pole or lines anywhere nearby.
“Are you the one who helped Geras?” One of them asked. They had a feminine sounding voice.
“Yes,” You said. “Are they okay?”
“She’s not well,” The speaker said. “I am her mother, Foteini.” The woman came down and out of the shadows, and you took a step backward.
She was covered from head to toe in fur, except for her face, which was hairless, but possessed no mouth. Her eyes and nose were very large, however, and her silvering hair was long behind her.
“What are you?” You asked, your voice a little shaky.
“The people of the grove,” She said, her voice not coming from any sort of mouth, but rather from all around her. It wasn’t like telepathy; you could actually hear a voice in your ears, but it seemed to emanate from all over her. “Do not be frightened. We are gentle people.”
There were three other people there in that stepped out of the darkened interior, a black haired creature like Foteini and two much smaller ones the same color as the mother, likely children. They clung to the legs of the taller, black furred creature, seemingly frightened of you.
“Will Geras be okay?” You asked haltingly.
“I don’t know,” The mother said. “She inhaled much of the fumes from those poisons.”
“Is there something I can do to help?” You asked.
“You’ve already done her a great service,” Foteini said. “We would not have been able to help her, if we had found her, and if she had laid there longer, she’d likely have died.”
“Why?” You asked. “That stuff stank, sure, but it wasn’t technically poisonous. Not inhaling it, anyway.”
“We live on the aromas of nature,” Foteini explained. “Flowers, trees, fruit. Those sustain us. Pungent, unpleasant smells, like that poison you disposed of, are toxic and potentially fatal to us.”
“Oh,” You said, daunted. “Is there something that could help speed her recovery?”
Foteini thought. “Roses. They are among the most fragrant things that exist in nature, but we haven’t been able to grow them here in many years. Could you find some?”
“Yeah. Yeah! I… I’ll be back!” You said, and dashed back out of the grove before they could stop you.
You got out of the forest, dropped off your painting stuff at home, and went to a plant nursery.
“Do you have any rose plants?” You asked the clerk.
“Well, yes,” The clerk said. “But it’s too late in the year to plant them. If you want to grow from seeds, though, you can plant those now. I can sell you some seeds and give you a guide.”
That’s too long, you thought to yourself. Geras needed the roses now. “You know, I’ll take it, but I’m in a hurry.”
“Uh… alright.”
The clerk packed up the seeds of several types of roses and a guide for each, and as soon as you had them, you sprinted to a flower shop. You purchased a large bouquet of the finest, freshest, most aromatic red roses, and while it took a chunk out of your bank account, you didn’t want to run the risk of buying some that were less than perfect in fear that they wouldn’t work.
It was nearing sundown when you returned to the grove, and Foteini seemed surprised to see you.
“I wasn’t sure if you’d return,” She said. “Humans tend to stay away from this place.”
“I brought the roses,” You said, gasping for breath. “And some seeds to plant.”
“This is… most generous of you,” Foteini said. “Please, come inside. Night is approaching and you don’t want to be in the forest after dark. There are far less benign creatures out there than us.”
You shivered and followed her inside.
Geras was lying on a pallet in a far room, her breathing labored and raspy. Foteini began to lay out the flowers around Geras’s head, arranging the flowers around Geras’s head in a circle.
“Breathe deep,” Foteini said soothingly, rubbing Geras’s chest like a mother would for a sick child.
Geras made an effort to take a deep breath, but it sounded pained. However, after two or three tries, her breathing eased and eventually, after about an hour of tense waiting, she was able to breath without struggle. Foteini relaxed, and so did you.
“You should sleep here tonight,” Foteini said. “And eat as many apples as you want. We owe you a great debt.”
“I’m just glad I could help,” You said.
You fell asleep almost immediately after eating, having been exhausted by all the running. When you awoke, there was a new bushel of apples sitting next to you, and next to that was Geras, watching you sleep.
“Oh,” You said, sitting up and rubbing your eyes. “Are you okay?”
“Yes, I’m much better now,” She said, smiling with her large green eyes. “Thank you for everything.”
“Of course,” You said with a self-conscious laugh. “You gave me a scare.”
“I’m sorry,” She said. “I know humans aren’t used to us.”
“No, I mean almost dying like that,” You corrected her. “I mean, I was a little startled, I’ll admit, but you guys seem nice.”
“You’re nice, too,” She said, continuing to smile.
“Thanks,” You said, starting to blush under the weight of her stare. “I, uh… I should get back, I have to go to work later today.”
“Of course,” Geras said, standing in a fluid movement and holding out a hand to help you to your feet. “Though… I hope… you’ll come back to visit?” She held out one of the roses for you to take.
You smiled at her, your hands still clasped. “I would like that very much.”

About Me tag game!
I got tagged by @kunstpause! Thank you, my friend!
1: Why did you choose your url?
I decided around 20...14? 15? Right around when I transitioned, I think. Anyway I decided that with my real life name change, I wanted to reinvent myself in fandom spaces. Which, at the time, was mostly just my fanfiction dot net account. So I decided to just make a new one, which meant coming up with a new name, and I literally didn't think about that until I was sitting at the account creation window like SHIT NOW WHAT.
So there I was glancing around frantically for inspiration. And the pro choir I was in at the time was doing a Lent series featuring the Jan Dismas Zelenka Miserere in D minor. Zelenka is one of my favorite Baroque composers, and my potato brain was like hahah Dismas sounds like Dismal and THAT PIECE DO BE DISMAL so I cackled at my stupid pun and typed dismalzelenka into the username box and haven't looked back since.
2: Any side blogs? if you have them, name them and why you have them.
@projectdizposition is my hilariously inactive barely put together blog I made in a hypomania fueled frenzy a few years ago when I was like I AM DEFINITELY GOING TO PRACTICE COMPOSING MORE USING FAN MATERIAL and then did like two short pieces and never touched it again. I might start posting the fandom covers I do on there, but for now it's kind of dead so don't look bahaha
3: How long have you been on tumblr?
I genuinely do not remember. I think I made one back in 2012 and never got on it and forgot both the username and password? I did a lot of drugs back then during my idiotic and misspent youth so my memories are. Woof. Not clear. I made a transition related blog in 2014, and I think I deactivated it for trauma reasons. Maybe deleted it. I don't really remember that either.
The current one has been around since I catapulted myself into the Dragon Age fandom in December of 2017. I've been a brightly burning trash heap ever since. 😊
4: Do you have a queue tag?
I tried to but I could never keep in my memory what it was and kept having to go back to old posts to remind myself and eventually just gave up lmaooo
5: Why did you start your blog in the first place?
So I could wake up every morning and lovingly gaze upon pictures of Anders. I'm a trash can trash man and I own this, ok?
6: Why did you choose your icon/pfp?
I recently updated all of my fandom pictures to be of Blitzkrieg Bop, my Very Photogenic Cat who loves to pose for pictures and is very good at it. Purely because I felt like it.
7: Why did you choose your header?
hahahaha it was a ridiculous Skyrim mod glitch and it just so perfectly encapsulated my general mood and also the constant mood of the character in question that I had to make it public.
8: What’s your post with the most notes?
A Solstice blessing I posted around Yule really blew up. I didn't expect people to like it so much but it made me happy to know it brought joy to so many people. The next highest one is my "the Amells are a walking shitpost" meta post 😂
9: How many mutuals do you have?
Gonna be honest, I don't even know how to start looking for this information.
10: How many followers do you have?
1057, but I never bother going through for porn and spambots so the actual count is probably much lower. I can never be arsed to care enough to put forth the effort of cleaning it up.
11: How many people do you follow?
878? I don't ever go through that either. I probably should soon, but. 🙈 It sounds very stressful.
12: Have you ever made a shitpost?
I am in fact a walking shitpost. Shitposts tumble forth from my void on a daily basis. Sometimes I fear it is the only language I speak with any measure of fluency.
13: How often do you use tumblr each day?
Probably too much.
14: Did you ever have a fight/argument with another blog once? who won?
Y'all, listen. I am a Grade A WEENIE. I am a walking Pisces stereotype. I hate confrontation with a burning passion. If someone tries to start a fight with me, I make one (1) attempt at a civil conversation and then I block, because my mental health is not worth that shit. I have to yell at people in real life enough for work things, I do not have the energy for it in fandom too. Please be nice to me. I am fragile. 🥺
15: How do you feel about “you need to reblog this” posts?
Please Do Not. I hate this shit. Why does anyone think guilt tripping someone into reposting their content is going to do any bit of good in this world?
16: Do you like tag games?
I am a cat, and tag games are my catnip. Tag me in literally anything.
17: Do you like ask games?
I do! As you have probably surmised at this point, I am a Very Wordy Boy. Especially when I get to talk about my characters. I'm like Maes Hughes with the photos of his family in his wallet. HAVE YOU SEEN MY CHILDREN TODAY? That's me. Let me show you my children.
19: Do you have a crush on a mutual?
I have a crush on several of you motherfuckers. Stop being so goddamn attractive and cute. It's woefully distracting and I'm probably in love with you.
I have no idea who to tag, because from what I've seen just about everyone who I could tag has already been tagged so I'm just throwing my usual tag list on here and hoping it catches the very specific intersection of people who both haven't yet been tagged and would like to do this. Feel 100% free to ignore it if this sort of thing does not appeal to you. I love you pls don't hate me I am Very Scattered today. 🥺

tagged by @kunstpause @elveny and @omgkalyppso
1: Why did you choose your url?
Okay so it was originally connected to my professional twitter name, and then when I realised this was not going to be a professional blog I changed it...and then I realised that my spotify name was also my then tumblr name and changed it to allycryz because I have a lot of feelings
2: Any side blogs? if you have them, name them and why you have them.
I’m co-running @junelezen right now. Back when Mass Effect 3 came out and we were annoyed at the clothing for F!Shepard, I started @femshepswardrobe and kept that up for a good long while. It’s since defunct but I think I covered a wide range of possible Shepard aesthetics 
3: How long have you been on tumblr?
Since 2010ish
4: Do you have a queue tag?
“queue”
5: Why did you start your blog in the first place?
Originally it was going to be another piece of my online presence as a designer and thus I still have like 3-4 mutuals from college who know who I really am and watch me post a lot of smut (hello there). And then I realised: oh this is going to be a fandom blog” and scrubbed it up 
6: Why did you choose your icon/pfp?
Icon is a commission of my WoL by @beasthuntergalvus that I love. H
7: Why did you choose your header?
Header is from Tales of Vesperia because it’s a great official art of my OT3 and we don’t talk about fluristelle enough
8: What’s your post with the most notes?
My “please tell your ocs I love them post” which is like...I’m glad people responded to it but also as with any popular post that is not actual original content, I resent it
9: How many mutuals do you have?
I’m not sure? Quite a few. 
10: How many followers do you have?
262
11: How many people do you follow?
295
12: Have you ever made a shitposts?
Yes but they never catch on lol
13: How often do you use tumblr each day?
I had a gap for the past few years where I barely visited it but when I got back to ffxiv I returned to checking it a few times a day
14: Did you ever have a fight/argument with another blog once? who won?
I don’t think so? I have gotten weird anons for daring to talk about shipping in dbz and because I got a detail wrong about thundercats
15: How do you feel about “you need to reblog this” posts?
Don’t love but some of them do need to be reblogged 
16: Do you like tag games?
Yes ^^ they’re lots of fun
17: Do you like ask games?
Yes! I have some writing ask prompts now I’m marinating and I love the shorter answer ones where I can just talk about characters and shipping
19: Do you have a crush on a mutual?
Yes–in the sense that I am the type of queer who has crushes on everybody but also I have actual crushes on some people? As with most crushes, I don’t really intend on acting on them but I enjoy them
