#I quite like the potential

[thoughtspeaker]

is it okay to ask about the Submas AU idea you had?? i kinda just wanna hear what it's generally about since it suddenly nagged at me out of nowhere.

I'm glad you asked!

Some context that may not make sense to my bringing it up until proper explaining: I've been headcanoning N as being autistic, much like how many headcanon the Submas twins to be(myself included).

How is that relavant, you might ask?

Well, assuming you know the original games the twins are from well enough, you should know that N was taken in by Ghetsis after being found by him, having been raised by pokemon prior to that. From there, Ghetsis worked to build him up to become the chosen hero to one of the legendary dragons(exactly which varying depending on the game, of course).

Well I had a thought.

What if sometime after Ghetsis finding N, he ended up finding Ingo and Emmet as well? A trio of children that he would take the opprotunity to try and mold into the perfect heroes for the trio of dragons.

Reshiram and Zekrom had already been proven to like twins, after all. That was why there was a legendary pair of them in the first place. Surely they would like a set of twins raised specifically to live their Truth or Ideal, right?

And so, raised and brainwashed by Ghetsis, Ingo, Emmet, and N all grow up as siblings(even if only the twins are by blood), each one having been told they had to be the perfect hero for one of the three legendary dragons. Emmet and Ingo had already liked dressing in opposite colors after all. Why not assign them the corresponding dragons to those opposite colors?

Emmet would be told to always follow his Truth. To always be honest with himself and others, regardless of their feelings.

Ingo, on the other hand, would be told to always work for his Ideal. To wave away other's truths if that was necessary to make his Ideal a reality.

And N? Well, he would be told to make himself open to others Truths and Ideals, just as Kyurem is known to be.

Of course, this also means Ghetsis needs to find all three dragons instead of just one, but... Well, he deems it no small sacrifice to use his time for that. Especially since it means nobody would be able to rise up with those same dragons to stop his plans.

...He's severely underestimated the power of a train hyperfixation spread through a trio of autistic children.

He's underestimated the way the things he's trying to teach the children will backfire on him when his plans finally begin to unfurl.

And more than anything? He's underestimated how much of his brainwashing can be undone over the course of just one journey made with siblings and rivals.

...That, and he has no idea that the Light and Dark Stones will be found by those he brainwashed sooner than he himself can acquire them.

Ghetsis will try to progress with his new plan regardless of all he doesn't know.

After all. Wouldn't having all three dragons be the best he could get for his plan? Surely all the frustation of raising the three children will be worth it. After all: Three Are Better Than One.

#Did I do good at making it sound ominous? #I reeeeeeally wanted it to sound ominous #I don't really have many idea for what to call the AU #Nothing solid for sure #Especially considering the two ideas I have could probably be better #My thoughts are it being either #Three Are Better Than One #or! #Extra Siblings #I particularly like the first one but it feels a bit like a mouthful #Imagine saying 'Oh it's the Three Are Better Than One AU' #A bit of a lot there #Could be abreviated to TABTO AU though #I think I like that #TABTO feels like a funny acronym #Which makes it perfect for an au with the funni train men #Submas AU #N Harmonia AU #I quite like the potential

gonna take a break and make another sketch page later :3

#raveartts #hazbin hotel #alastor #i have like. 3-4 more screenshots i wanna redraw to practice #and then i guess i gotta think of a cool idea to draw him in #he's actually quite satisfying to draw once i actually...don't suck at it 😍 #i really love this man. like i saw him in the pilot and i knew he had potential if he got the necessary screentime #and they SERVED alastor to me on a gourmet plate <3 #and he's still got potential for season 2 as he's easily the most mysterious character #i literally just watch this show for him pretty much- #he's like the daniel of hazbin for me #though i like camp camp as whole actually but oh well. hazbin ain't terrible either

the anon saying they wish vaschete were plushies inspired me

.

#oh no #oh #oh boy #they're adorable #I'm sorry but I'm just mentally smooshing their soft round little heads together #their expressions! #the teensy paws #really feeling that cute aggresion #you made their faces translate into simplified plush form so well #I'd be lying if I said it never crossed my mind how neat it would be to have plushies of them #not as merch but like to keep as mascots and have them sit contently next to each other in some nook of my home #I'm not completely hopeless at sewing but I've never designed patterns quite as complex as this #and I think commissioning a professional for a set is likely beyond my budget so eh one can dream #gift art #makedamnsvre #own characters #Machete #Vasco #from a technical point of view #I feel like I'd be adamant about keeping Vasco's ombre ears and muzzle but they could be potentially difficult to execute #unless you airbrushed them by hand or something I don't know how this works #and I'd probably be really picky about the texture of Machete's fluff as well #finding a faux fur with the right length curl and springiness might be hard #honestly I think I might have easier time if I tried art doll/ooak route because that permits more painting and sculpting than pure sewing #but then the squish factor would suffer

"Jerry is Lincoln's and Scary's biological son, which means teen pregnancy" or "Jerry is adopted"

NO.

It's Scam Likely again

What's the one good thing that Grant and Marco got out of Scams shitty wedding gift? Their son Lincoln. So Scam has learned that the best gift at a wedding is giving someone a child of course

#a few days ago I saw a post in which someone said that Scam is responsible for multiple children in s2 #he made up the prophesy so Hero was born #he sent Grant and Marco to the titanic so they adopted Lincoln #he quite literally brought Hermie into existence #scam likely will always be sCamming children into existence #can you see my vision? #Jerry and any potential family interactions have been spinning in my brain as short fic ideas #i hope to be able to write them and post them soon #i also hope we'll hear more about Jerry in the upcoming teen talk but I doubt it #dndads #dndads s2 #jerry dndads #scam likely

Prompts For When You Need A Whumpee To Fall Like A Sack Of Bricks

For when a slow and steady loss of consciousness doesn't quite cut it (but that's still good, don't get me wrong).

whumpee's still running on adrenaline when they bump into caretaker, nothing but smiles until they catch onto caretaker's horrified expression. they follow their gaze until they see the familiar stain of blood against their shirt. their shock drains the adrenaline from them, and before caretaker's even able to take a step forward their knees have buckled.

a sudden wound — a gunshot, a stabbing — and the pain lancing through them white-hot and agonizing. they're still processing what's happened to them, gaping like a fish out of water when they feel the ground slam into the side of their head. they're not sure when they fell, but every pulse pours out more red and reminds them over and over of why.

a caretaker running themselves ragged with just how many people are hurt or in need of them, unable to take a moment's rest for themselves. their vision starts to swim when they stand up but they ignore it, because it's not that bad yet and others have it worse. they're doing an excellent job pushing through, until they're suddenly not. their vision wavers a little stronger this time, and then into black, barely able to get out a surprised "oh" before they're on the ground.

bending down to grab something and not hearing the approach of someone from behind them. one moment, they're sifting through papers, a drawer, a cabinet — the next, there's a burst of horrible pain at the back of their skull and a deep, sudden darkness.

trying to climb out of bed after a broken fever — common sense tells them to stay in bed but they want a bath so badly. their body trembles the moment they move to stand, and they're barely upright for more than a few seconds before their weakened legs fold and they collapse in a pile of exhausted, aching limbs.

doing nothing, thinking of nothing until there's a bright surge of light and heat, white bleeding into black, so abrupt that it's not until they wake again that they even comprehend that anything happened to them.

Me thinking of all the jealous, pining, petty, Eddie Diaz content we could end up with after he finds out about Buck, and Buck & Tommy:

i like when people give atsushi cat-like traits like purring or having sharper-than-average canines and i think we should take it a step further and just keep adding onto it. atsushi should chuff. he scratches on walls and his desk until there's obvious nail marks digging into the wood. he rubs against the others to mark them as his territory. there has to be a meeting held because he won't stop shedding and there's white hair everywhere so a good portion of the agency's budget goes into getting everyone lint rollers. he freaks people out at night because of his tapetum lucidum. and he does all of this subconsciously so if you tell him he does any of these things he'd be absolutely mortified

#bsd atsushi #its just really funny to think about #i love the idea of byakko and him becoming more in-tune with one another #therefore he adopts certain behaviors from her even if theyre catlike #read a fic where he ate a live mouse in front of everyone because byakko took over #it changed me forever. his weirdgirl potential is quite beautiful #i love his little gimmick of going 'im not a cat im a tiger' #i know youre better than this atsushi. you know what tigers are #not like anyone cares either way. poor thang

Raphael or Haarlep reacting to waking up as the little spoon, even though the little mouse is smaller than the fiend. Like Tav's chest is pressed against the fiend's back, arms loosely but tenderly wrapped around his torso, their head resting by his shoulder blades as he feels the mortal's peaceful breath gently fanning the base of his wings. Perhaps the fiend even realizes that his tail has ended up coiled around one of Tav's legs.

Here you go, love, and thank you for the ask!

Please let me know if you enjoyed, reblogs very welcome, I'm v enamoured with the half-devil <3 and I love getting to talk to others who love him too ^^

Summary: fluff, fade to black hinting at smut, sleepy cambion, no warnings.

How did the House of Hope come to be your escape, you wondered, absentmindedly, half asleep. You curled into the cambion in front of you, comfortable in between his wings, resting your chin on his shoulder. His heat kept you warm, but still you preferred a blanket. It felt more intimate to be underneath one together. His presence made Avernus feel like home, the sounds of the Blood War a far off noise that lulled you to sleep. It was never easy to sneak away from camp unnoticed to spend time with Raphael, but at this point, you didn't care what your companions thought. You slept best with the cambion.

The tail around that's gently curled around your leg, tightened for a moment, twitching as it stretched and relaxed. He's waking up. Softly, you pressed kisses into his skin, enjoying the ridges of his spine.

He hummed as he stretched the rest of him, tensing for a moment as the arm slung over his waist inhibited his movement.

"Comfortable, are you, my dear?" His voice was still thick with sleep. You tightened your arm around him, preventing him from turning around. It was nice to be the big spoon. Would he feel safe, as you feel when he holds you?

"You're very warm," you say softly, "I'm sorry if I woke you. We can still sleep a bit more..."

He lifted your arm to turn around, you let him this time. Immediately, he leaned in, noses bumping, and kissed you deeply. The sharpness of his teeth still delighted you, bringing up images from the night before. The bitemark in your thigh throbbed at the memory. His groan as you lick into his mouth was sinfully deep. With a big hand, he held your face still, to kiss deeper, so deep it felt like you barely got to breathe. He's truly a dream, you thought, moaning as you traced the ridges on his back.

He dislodged from you, holding you close, trapped within his arms, to say: "Sleep? Hm. Maybe there's something else we could be doing instead..."

love how the fandom collectively reimagined drew's character. recently had a cousin of mine pick up the lost hero, and she told me, "reese, i don't get how you like drew. she's so mean to piper." and i kind of sat there for a moment trying to reorganize canon from fanon.

#dearest cousin i regret to inform u that fanon is in fact not canon #drew had so much potential omg #bitter over silena's betrayal and being unable to forgive her the way the rest of her cabin did #and consequently despising her siblings for being so quick to forgive #having to take over a position as head counselor that she probably never wanted #did her cabinmates invalidate her bitterness? say that she had to forgive selena because of the circumstances? #i think the aphrodite cabin is the most family oriented of them all #after the war they probably tried to keep things together #and drew was the outlier in that because she wasn't quite so willing to forgive and forget #maybe other aphrodite campers thought the same but were too afraid to voice their opinions because they wanted to keep their family togethe #anyway IGNORE MY RAMBLING ODHGDOGDG #i just really like drew. can u tell. #drew tanaka #aphrodite cabin #cabin 10 #silena beauregard #percy jackson and the heroes of olympus #percy jackson and the olympians #the lost hero #the last olympian #pjo #hoo #rrverse #riordanverse

Those Beyond The Wall

sequel/companion to The Space Between Worlds, set a decade later

character-focused sci-fi set in an area divided in two, the rich protected city on one side and everyone else in the post-apocalyptic desert

follows a woman who works under the Emperor in Ashtown, keeping the peace

when mangled bodies start showing up with seemingly no murderer, she’s tasked with finding the cause, and finds out that it’s the result of corruption spanning both cities and multiple worlds

explores oppression and messy revolution, police violence and apartheid

bi & polyamorous MC

#Those Beyond The Wall #aroaessidhe 2024 reads #space between worlds sequel!!! honestly I’m not entirely sure how I feel about it….. In general I enjoyed it and I think it had #a lot of important things to say but also maybe highlighted some weaknesses(?) in both books? #or - I guess just the fact that the sff stuff (which skews a little more magicy here) is kinda small scope relative to its potential #and more there to serve the plot and characters. Which actually maybe is the point. idk- there's def mixed reviews lol #it has a messy unlikable MC (like actually - when half the weak ass reviews are saying the MC is annoying you know they are Actually a #complex character) and some interesting relationship dynamics #it is pretty solidly a sequel - I wouldnt read this without reading TSBW #cara does show up in here& tbh her characterisation felt quite different to me? unsure how I feel about that? but maybe it's the biased POV #also to be clear: polyam MC; not a polyam romance or anything #(there's - kinda a romance? or various feelings floating around and she 'ends up' with someone. feel like i would have liked that to end #more subtley but that's probably my personal taste lol) #man some of the 1 star reviews of this are kinda.....just racist though. can we get some measured critique in here #as I said i am not entirely sure how I feel about it but not quite in a way I can articulate.... idk! i think it's worth the read tho #it's maybe one of those revolutions that feels solved a little too easily in the end - but then also is it solved or is it just that the #narrative has to end at a certain point

[starbuck]

we talk a lot about “escaping the narrative,” but keep in mind that the frightening thing about escape is the chance you might end up someplace worse.

#hello. i have been listening to Maize Stalk Drinking Blood for like an hour now #you could ask me about how it’s about ~10 different brbabcs characters - but i wouldn’t tell you because i am Shy ✌🏻 #it Is tho :)) #ANYWAYS #that’s a Ravenous 1999 quote for those who don’t know #but inspired by my currently line of thinking which is that for SOME of the brbabcs characters - there was never any better alternative #not that there wasn’t morally or logically but they quite literally COULDN’T have done anything else than what they did #not because The Narrative Is Controlling Them or whatever - but because they are Fucked In The Head #we might see potential ‘better endings’ for them #but those were completely unattainable bc making any choices other than the terrible ones they made would have killed them anyway #because they couldn’t have stood for it #which is what makes it such an excellent tragedy #also to any moralistic weirdos out there: this isn’t me morally justifying anyone - this is me going :(( #learn the difference and embrace the Tragic Narrative <33

[finelyageddragons]

Once again thinking about the connection between Duncan and the Grim Reaper. Imagine him, cloaked in black as he wonders the world searching for lost souls and claiming them as his own once their old life has ended and taking them for himself to sacrifice them in his war against the ancient evils. This great and valiant man with poison in his blood and the demon's song in his mind, a valiant knight slowing being eaten by the sickness he seeks to kill. A ghost who listens to the song at night and searching for warriors - for sacrifices - to give the blood the evil ones call for. Flee should you see him. Let the smell of his rotting mind ward you away and let not those cold steel gauntlets claim you. May the reaper find you before he does for the death will grant rest but a warden will send your soul to war as it dies.
