Reincarnation AU but it's not Danny
So! In basically every single Reincarnation AU I've seen, it's always Danny who gets reincarnated as a DC character. Sometimes it's Jazz, other times it's his Friends, but it never really strays from them. And I think we've been ignoring some people...
The Ancients! Danny is always reincarnated as a "Vacation" from his Ghost King Duties, so why not give the same courtesy to the other Ancients?
Specifically, Fright Knight.
Fright Knight has been a loyal servant and Knight of his Master for Millenia. Ever since he first formed as the Autumn Spirit, the Embodiment of Fear, the Fright Knight, he had declared his Servitude to the Ghost King, whomever it may be at the time. And he stayed in that position, through the passing of the Crown, through the Violent Coups, through every single Ghost King who had taken to the mantle. He was their Loyal Knight. Never Wavering. Never leaving their side.
Until Pariah Dark, but that situation was different. No previous King had even tried to take the human world before.
Thankfully, Pariah had only taken the Throne for a mere 5000 years, so he had not had to put up with him for long, and much of that time was with him stuck in his Coffin. That was the first time Fright Knight had ever left his Masters Side.
Then, that insolent Halfa he had met before came into the picture and Fright Knight had a new master.
King Phantom was...different.
Perhaps it was his remaining Humanity poking through? Or was it was the influence of the Human Realm that he still regularly visited? Or maybe he was simply just a Good Person, and there was no deeper meaning behind it?
Either way, Fright Knight noticed that he cared for his subjects in a far deeper manner than any previous king had. He had personal connections with as many Ghosts as he could, and often called the Ghosts he ruled his, Friends. It warmed his Long Frozen Core to see a King valuing his Subjects as much as he did.
He did not realize that the kindness Phantom extended to his people, also extended to himself.
One day, Phantom had been discussing his Human Life with some of his friends. Not his First Life, but his most recent Vacation. Over the Eons since he had taken the Throne, Phantom had been encouraged to take a Vacation every once in a while. It was not healthy for a Ghost to work non-stop like he did, especially for a Halfa.
It was not an uncommon practice in the Realms, many would take a break from the Endlessness of Death to embrace Life once more through Reincarnation. Although, many were too weak to retain their memories upon their second Forming. Mostly, it was Ancients or Kings who would use this as a Vacation, rather than a New Beginning.
There came a break in the conversation, and King Phantom turned his attention to his Knight. "Frighty, when was the last time you Reincarnated? Pandora did so recently, and it got me thinking."
"I have not taken leave of my post for thr Eons since my Forming, My Lord" Replied the Knight with Pride.
"What? You haven't taken a Break since you formed!? Frighty! That's not Healthy!" Exclaimed his King.
This lead to a whole conversation about how unhealthy his lifestyle was, which was another quirk of his Master. He cared for his Sunjects beyond their happiness.
"Fright Knight, as your King and as your Friend, I implore you to take a Vacation. It doesn't have to be forever, just a simple Human Lifespan, but please take a break, for your own Good."
And how could he refuse a request like that? One based in the kindness that his Majesty always showed his Subjects.
It took a few more years to finally iron out the plan for his Vacation, but what are a few years in the face of Eternity?
Finally, it came time to take his leave to the Mortal Realm, and to Life itself.
"Farewell, my Leige." Bowed Fright Knight, "I thank you for this opportunity."
"There's no need to thank me. Now go, and have fun, My Dark Knight."
...
That day, in Gotham General Hospital, a baby was born.
"What will you name him?" Asked the Doctor.
"I think I'll call him..." Began the need Mother, "...Bruce. Bruce Wayne."

Here's a little double the trauma for the price of one story for you folks.
So basically Danny got captured by the GIW and was experimented on / tortured until he died and was reincarnated as Danyal Al Ghul. He attempts to adapt to his grandfather's teachings but just can't get behind them unlike his older brother. This culminates in Danny getting caught trying to help an injured animal.
When he refuses to kill it, Ra's decides he's had enough and strikes Danny down then and there. Damian, who was watching all of this go down, disobeys his grandfather for the first time and attempts to resurrect Danny using the Lazarus pits. But Danny's body sinks to the bottom and doesn't return. This devastates Damian and Talia when she gets back.
Meanwhile Danny opens his eyes to find himself in the one place he never wanted to be again, the GIW research facility. The Lazarus pits had responded to the traces of ectoplasm within his body and opened up a portal back to his home dimension. All across the spider verse style you could say. Anyways Danny spends the next decade being experimented on while Damian spends it pretty close to canon albeit with a little more resentment towards Ra's and a little more grief towards the batfam (he feels like he's somehow replacing his little brother by hanging out with them).
Eventually a prison break happens within the GIW facility. Whether because they captured a powerful ghost like Pandora or something or because Clockwork did something, it doesn't matter. What matters is that Danny takes advantage of the chaos to go back through the very portal he got spit out of all those years ago.
Imagine the league's surprise when their youngest heir suddenly comes crawling out of the pits without looking even a day older than when he was first thrown in. The reason for this is because the scientists at the facility thought that Danny was growing in order to simulate being human and gain sympathy. He was always severely punished for this until the remaining ghost part of him eventually adapted to stop his human half from growing. He's now pretty much stuck at the age of 5 or so. Don't worry as he eventually heals from his trauma, he'll start growing again.
Anyways the league, especially Talia is trying to keep it on the downlow that Danny is back. She knows that if Damian finds out, he'll immediately come and try to take back his little brother. Unfortunately for them, they were a little too quiet and Damian gets hella suspicious. So he goes on a solo mission to see what they're up to. He sneaks into Nanda Parbat in the middle of the night and finds a sleeping boy in his baby brother's old room. At first Damian thinks that the league cloned his brother. But when Danny wakes up and stares at him with those big blue eyes he just knows.
So Damian takes Danny with him back home where the batfam is absolutely baffled about where he got this kid from. They're also flabbergasted when Damian speaks to the boy in soft Arabic and has the most gentle and loving expression on his face. This can't be the same demon brat right?

Kinktober 12- Fingering
Ao’nung x Human Fem Reader
Warnings ⚠️: The title gives it away, soulmate AU (matching tattoo’s)
Honestly just happy you guys enjoy my writing ❤️ thank you for your likes, comments, and reblogs, they make me incredibly happy and I look forward to seeing them☺️
I can’t remember if I proofread it but don’t be afraid to call out any mistakes :)
Word Count: 2.1K
I was born on Pandora like the rest of the kids here, scientists got horny and decided to have children, there was no effective birth control they could create and a new generation of humans had been born. Spider was the first of us, I was the second, and with us being born came a new wave of soulmate tattoo’s permanently imbedded in all our wrists. Something so special to the Na’Vi had started showing up on all of us, meaning the all mother must have had special plans for us or even saw us as her children.
I have no idea if Neytiri’s tattoo of Jake’s name had been in English or in Na’vi and at this point, knowing how she had been toward Spider, I had been afraid to ask but I couldn’t help and wonder if this had been something she often kept covered as a teenager, believing she had been rejected by the all mother due to the incomprehensible symbols on her wrist, and therefore believing she did not having a soulmate?
They did, however, keep their children’s wrists covered from the moment of their birth up until the moment they passed their iknimaya. Sure every kid had their curiosity and peeked under the band, but the name had been something kept a secret, some parents wouldn’t even take a look as they did not want to influence themselves to play matchmaker with their friends, it had been something they took seriously, a blessing from Eywa that their perfect match had been out there.
To be completely honest I hadn’t even known they wrote things down, or that they had a written vocabulary as they often spoke of their history, used the song chord to keep track of their lives, it wasn’t new to me that the tattoo on either wrist meant it was the name of your soulmate. Had this meant that the letters of my name littered themselves across a Na’vi’s wrist in English, or was it written in their language so they could understand it, did that specific Na’vi think they had been cursed had the letters been in symbols they had yet to understand? I’d purposely avoided wanting anything to do with learning the Na’vi written language due to the fear of rejection, had the specific person known it was their name they could decide what my fate would be.
There were three options. They could reject me flat out and reveal themselves as my soulmate, they could ignore me completely without having told me a thing and I’d die alone, and the highly unlikely scenario in which they’d want to have me for themselves and actually go through with being with me their entire lives. But all of that had been thrown out the window the moment Spider and I had been captured by his reincarnated father- which threw the both of us in a loop after he’d shared who he was- all of that shit had been left field, and we’d finally ended up with the Metkayina.
Due to suffeirng from foot-in-fucking-mouth disease, Lo’ak had blurted out to the people they often hung out with, that I could not read in Na’Vi, and that my soulmate was also Na’Vi. I had been given a bracelet, decorated with traditional Omatikaya colors and pattern, that I had yet to take off of my wrist from the moment Neteyam had made one for me, knowing I would want nothing more than to hide it. Even if Tuk had been young, she’d known how sensitive the topic was for me, and slapped the back of Lo’ak’s head from being a loud mouthed bitch- her words, not mine.
I’d kept a close eye on the bracelet he’d made me and assured it was tied around my wrist as tightly as possible, while allowing room for circulation, which was tricky considering riding on an Ilu- especially with Lo’ak or Neteyam, that shit loosened up every time. But with my close observation it remained intact and on my wrist, effectively covering my tattoo.
Until we’d all been huddled around the cook fire, the same group of people who hung out together sitting closely to one another, Kiri’s gasp breaking us all out of the concentration we’d all been in while listening to one of the guys talking about whatever it was they felt like sharing. All eyes had followed hers and like every other time, I’d been the last one to follow what they’d been doing, noticing my wrist had been handing something to her, vulnerably showing everyone what my tattoo had said, my eyes widened as I immediately look on the sand to find my bracelet and feeling my arm being tugged in another direction.
_________
Big hands had currently been forcing my thighs to stay open even while I attempted to shut them on his face, I’d been feeling overstimulated at the moment but his tongue continued to dance around my clit as if it had choreographed an entire show, I was on the verge of yet another orgasm and weakly attempted to push his forehead away, all while my hips pushed closer to him. I suck in a breath and throw my head back in frustration at my failed attempt, the coil in my stomach had tightened even more and I knew I was closer to release, a chuckle coming out of the mouth of the bastard who was currently eating me out.
“Ao’nung!” I whisper-yelled at the teal man below me, another quiet moan slips past my lips without wanting to, compelled to stop fighting as soon as his eyes shoot up through his thick lashes to meet mine, my knee’s growing weak at the sight. I couldn’t see his mouth as he was keeping it busy, but from the look in his eyes I could tell he had been smirking, feeling his fingers prod at my entrance, not bothering to tease any longer and sliding them in. I’d had two orgasms previous and the third one was right at the cusp, his fingers working diligently, he was insatiable at this moment and seemed to be doing what he wanted- not that I could complain as my hips buck upward to meet the teasing thrusts of his fingers.
I could feel the coil in my lower belly just about to give in, but his mouth detaches from my already soaked cunt, biting his lip as he focuses on his fingers being swallowed, and yet all I could do was attempt to wiggle my hips further, upset at his fingers retracting. Another whine had built itself in my throat and I look down to see him looking through his lashes and into the depths of my soul, completely forgetting he’d attached his kuru to the base of my skull and that he could feel everything I was feeling at the moment. I clench around his fingers subconsciously at the thought of how close we were at this time, his eyes were hazed with lust and longing, I could only imagine what my face looked like.
“You look gorgeous on my fingers, yawntu.” In the time I’d gotten lost staring at his eyes, he’d managed to meet my face with his own, his fingers working me closer to the edge without allowing me the satisfaction of coming, fingers pushing up against a specific spot and I could feel the waves of euphoria getting stronger, but not enough to crash over me. I grunt right as his lips meet mine and effectively muting the sound, feeling his opposite hand lightly pushing my thigh apart as his other continued its ministrations.
“Don’t stop-“ I’d grunted as his thrusts pick up their speed, my eyes closing on instinct as I bite my lip to keep from making too much noise, marui’s were considered their homes, but nobody had to tell me it was obvious you could hear every sound -there are gaping holes everywhere- I didn’t need to be the one human ruining it for everyone. My own gasp brings me back to the present feeling his fingers pushing harder, he’d been squatting on his toes while attempting a third orgasm out of me -which wasn’t that far behind- but from the angle I was at I could see he was hard under his loincloth, but he’d been too busy focusing on my cunt to care about himself, and who was I to mess with his concentration?
I’d wanted nothing more than to allow myself to moan, but considering our circumstances and how close we were to everyone else, I settled for short and fast pants, it was near impossible to keep any noise down with how well he’d been treating me and the sting overstimulation had only been temporary, being drowned out by the pleasure I was feeling at the moment. I was starting to feel myself spiral in my own head and felt like I needed something to hold on to, previously I’d been holding on to his pretty hair and accidentally pressing my nails into his scalp, but with nothing in reach for me to hold on I’d started slightly thrashing in the floor of our marui, but I’d rather do this than be loud.
“I want to see you come on my fingers.” My eyes snapped open -barely- at how low his voice had sounded only to realize he’d been too focused on my pussy to realize he’d said anything. I’d taken note he’d often speak without realizing he’d said anything at the moment until someone- usually Tsireya- called him out on whatever bullshit he’d said, ironically most of it was usually aimed at Spider and me. A whine sneaks past my mouth and one of my hands comes up to reach just as one of his hands come to squeeze the sides of my neck, staring right at me, eyes begging me to come.
“M’coming-“ I struggle to whisper and stated quite breathless before feeling my eyes shut again, a blinding white vision coming behind them as his fingers rub against the spot he had been assaulting this entire time. I could feel an insane amount of energy flowing through my body as I orgasmed and was surprised at how quiet I’d been, biting my own lip and thankful enough to not draw blood, allowing the waves to crash over my body silently. It kind of felt like when someone stretches in the morning, their limbs are spread wide and are on the verge of getting a Charlie-horse, minus the loud groan accompanying it.
Slowly but surely my senses start coming back to me and I could feel my body had been run through the ringer, I felt exhausted and energized at the same time, although a feeling of shock was coursing through me and it had taken a bit to remember that I had been attached to my husband, opening my eyes and seeing his shocked expression fitting the emotion I felt through our bond. I look down toward where he had been staring and it takes a second for me to realize there were droplets of something wet running along the length of his arm and some on his knees, my own eyes widening slightly at the sight, slowly reaching his stare -as he had found it in himself to look up- and realizing I was sharing the same shocked expression.
“What was that?” He asked and the amusement was clear as day in his voice, feeling a million thoughts starting to run through my head, although I was certain most of them had been his own. I shake my head a bit to rid myself of the disorganized chaos that had started flooding my brain to try and understand the predicament we were in, distinctly remembering that I may have done this one other time, but not remembering what it had been or even felt like when it happened before, but this one had definitely made me feel like I needed twelve business days to recover from.
“I need to see you do that again.” His eyes darkened as he said that and I could feel myself start to squirm with excitement, but hissing slightly at the sting of overstimulation, I was definitely in for it tonight and it was already late as fuck, were we ever going to get the sleep we needed to keep up with our busy day tomorrow?

Shards of Glass, Chapter 2
Tumblr media
Summary: Kyojuro Rengoku, History Teacher on the Kimetsu Academy, is constantly having strange dreams about a Slayer who looks exactly like him. He thinks nothing of it until he recognizes a very specific person from these dreams and feels a very unique connection to her.
Pairing: History Teacher Kyojuro x Teacher Fem!Reader
Trope: Reincarnation / Sequel to Flame and Water (can be stand-alone)
Word Count: 1280
Pinterest Board of Shards of Glass
Crossposted on AO3
Masterlist of Shards of Glass
“Hello, my name is Y/N and I’m looking forward to working with you.”
She bowed politely and some of the colleagues got up to greet her properly and get to know her. Not everyone though, as Kyojuro still seemed to be planted in his seat. He watched her with attentive eyes as his whole world came to a halt. Her name and her face, he knew her, but he was not sure from where. And it was not like this regular deja vu feeling, no. It was like something inside him snapped open. An unknown Pandora’s box, he never knew he had, had been opened inside him.
The history teacher tried to look away to not make it so obvious, but it was impossible for him. Everything about her seemed so familiar, and he tried his hardest to remember - but he couldn’t, so he simply watched her. He noticed that she seemed a little bit nervous even if her face was not giving away anything. Wait, how would he know that? He had just met her minutes ago? But the way how close she was standing next to Tomioka, as she searched for his reassurance, gave it away.
Suddenly her gaze switched from the raven-haired to the blond and their eyes met. It was just a split second, but the young man could feel in that moment how strong his heart was beating as it tried to tell him something. There was something about her that he couldn’t quite explain and it felt like she was feeling it too.
“Hey buddy, the new teacher is cute. Do you know her?” The art teacher seated himself down next to the blond after introducing himself to her.
Kyojuro was so lost in his thoughts that he answered him late by shaking his head. “No, I don’t know her.” Liar, you do know her… It came in a whisper from inside him and he had to swallow as their eyes met several times until she gave him a shy smile. “It seems like she knows Tomioka well.” 
Tengen seemed surprised by his friend's changed demeanor and by his question. His eyebrow rose as he also observed how close Y/N and Giyuu seemed. “Oh, you're right. He seems really relaxed, maybe they are lovers?” And as he said that he wiggled his eyebrows and furtively watched his friend's reaction but they were interrupted.
“No, they are relatives. Cousins to be exact.” Gyomei’s voice was so deep it echoed and silenced all the other conversations. Even the one between Giyuu and Y/N. 
Now that was unexpected. Nobody knew much about the P.E. teacher because he was very much an introvert and preferred to spend his lunch break on the fire escape instead of talking to his colleagues. He explained one time that he simply doesn’t like to talk while having his mouth full, but Sanemi and Obanai were simply theorizing that he just avoided everyone because he thought himself to be better than others. That's why it wasn't surprising that everyone stared at the two of them until Sanemi broke the silence.
“Oh, a relative? So you did not spawn from hell?” Everyone’s gaze turned now onto the white haired math teacher, while giving him a mocking smile.
Y/N seemed visibly confused. “Why should he be-” She shook her head and turned her head back to Giyuu. “It seems like you are not very popular among your colleagues. Could it be because of your poor communication skills?” She gave him a slight teasing smile and Kyojuro felt his heart beat faster at the sight.
“I am not… disliked.” Giyuu gave her a deadpan look.
Another awkward silence occurred and everyone in the staff room was probably thinking the same thing at that moment, but Y/N decided to wave it off with a smile. She turned to the other female and asked Kanae which desk she could maybe use before the next lesson began.
“Oh, the desk next to me is still free, you can make yourself comfortable there.”
"Thank you." Y/N gave her a smile as she sat down and inspected her new desk, putting her belongings into the drawers.
The history teacher observed the interaction between the two young women and how they chatted in a friendly manner. Only now did he realize that he hadn't introduced himself to her. Even the woman-phobic Obanai had introduced himself, albeit briefly, while Kyojuro had simply stared dumbfounded at her. He got up to get this rudeness out of the world as quickly as possible, but the school bell announced the next class and Y/N had already rushed to the door to not be late.
The blonde man was about to reach out and call out to her, but stopped himself in time. He shook his head to himself. What would that have looked like? He too gathered his things for class and rushed out of the staff room.
~ ~ ~
With a feeling of regret, he headed home. His day had been so busy that he hadn't had time to exchange a single word with her. He was disappointed in himself and what impression he had probably left on her. She probably thought the worst about him, since he did not even get up to say a single hello. But maybe she didn't even waste a single thought about him, who knows. He sighed. His thoughts had been circling all around the new English teacher and it was not helping that she was also sitting directly across from him.
So absorbed in his thoughts, he suddenly found himself standing in front of his parents' house. It wasn't long ago that he had moved out from there. Some boxes were still waiting to be unpacked, but he never got the opportunity for it.
He was about to turn away and go to his new apartment when he heard the rumbling of his stomach and saw his loving mother at the window. He decided otherwise because he knew that his family would be happy to have him visit.
And that's the way it was. Kyojuro was warmly welcomed by his family and especially his little brother who threw himself into his arms, telling him that he missed him even if he saw him everyday in school. The food was delicious and his mother had packed something for him that he could eat the next day. In all those happy moments with his family, he had finally managed not to think about her, only to have her haunt his dreams late at night.
It was a different era where they all carried swords and wore the same uniform, and yet they had not been equal. Not in this part of his memory. Was that what it is? A memory and not a dream? He couldn't follow the thought when he suddenly saw Y/N in front of him. He smiled and was about to open his mouth when her face contorted in terror and panic before she fled from him. He reached out his hand to stop her from running and woke up with his arm outstretched in the air.
Sitting up in his bed, Kyojuro looked at the clock. It was 4:34 am in the morning again and therefore shortly before sunrise. He exhaled heavily, should he try to go back to sleep? No, his thoughts were far too troubled for that. Especially after seeing that terrified look on her face. That didn't bode well, because if these weren't dreams but memories from somewhere, then he had done something bad to her.
And he didn’t think he could live with that.

ALRIGHT SO !!
Shiryu as Hadès and How His Character Could Have Had More Screentime (this is going to be long and like...not even half of what I have to say sorry)
First of all : Shun is actually a good character for Hades, the whole kind guy turning into World's End Maker was a good plot twist BUT character wise he was already pretty central and full fleshed, Shiryu otherwise....erm (I rlly love Shiryu but he gets so bad/forgattable after Sanctuary...sick) + don't forget those are the main plotlines !!! I have a whole developpement in my head but you don't want to read a whole novel so please bear with me
I feel like he was tossed a bit of the side after the first arcs and it genuinely makes me sad, his character is a bit alike to Shun's on some points but except losing his sight every five episode well...he's not as well developped as Shun lmaoo 😭 that's why I believe it could have been interesting, even without the whole developpement points who are hard to add in a show like this, his character could have been a little more than what he is...Shun has a pretty shiny role, Seiya is the mc, Hyoga has a familial story or something like this every arc, and Ikki also has meaningful parts in fights/story, while I feel like Shiryu was often here because well he had to, but doesn't have a role that big (minus maybe in Asgard, but here he was a bit of an ass with fenrir for no reason so um 😭)
Anyway so ! First of all, Shiryu is the only one without a known family member (Seiya -> Seika, Shun -> Ikki, Hyoga -> his mom), no real backstory, nothing (thanks Ohko for trying at least, genuinely it made Shiryu's character rlly much cooler) so I decided to change it to give him at least something ! Also the necklace trope is also included but I won't extend myself on it, you guys know how it works
Changed his whole non existent backstory in the AU, basically, instead of being an orphan with the other kids, he would have been taken home by Dohko, who would have protected him from Pandora and Hades when his parents died from their attack (I always saw Shiryu as Chinese, I scrapped the whole brothers trope bc I don't like it + it's manga only) Dohko is a powerful Saint and could have done that.
I feel like he'd know Shiryu was like...different, his job is looking at the reincarnation of the Specters so yeah, he felt it. But killing a child, right after Athena was taken away and almost killed ? Yeah...no...he'd feel too bad, and would take Shiryu with him instead, keeping it to himself in hopes a good teaching and keeping an eye on him could prevent anything bad from happening (almost worked ig, oops)
It could make an interesting plot point with Shiryu and Dohko's dynamic, because as much as Shiryu likes him as a parental figure and master, he knows he's keeping secrets from him, and would feel some resent when learning about the truth y'know ??
After that it doesn't change much from the plot, except when it comes to dynamic within the Bronze group : Shiryu is sent to check what the hell is going on with the Galaxians Wars (a bit like Hyoga did in the manga), Ikki makes a whole ass mess, etc etc. Also it'd "explain" how Shiryu was so eager to end Ikki's life : he doesn't know him like the others do. For him he's just a threat to put an end to, which would be interesting dynamic wise too...Seiya would try to integrate him to the group, Shun, while understanding his view, would feel some kind of discomfort BEFORE trying to learn to know him better (I love their friendship srry), and I feel like he'd connect with Hyoga with the whole "My dad is a Gold Saint and while I love him well sometimes he tends to be a bit weird with me" and with Ikki I have a whole another plotline but I can't sum up that. This post is already long enough. Anyway the dynamics would have been changed and I think it's interesting to learn to know characters through someone who doesn't know them as much as they do know each other ?? Honestly most of the developpement is made in my head here are just the big lines
ANYWAY, back on track, nothing changes that much from the og anime before Hades (or it does change in my head because Shiryu was badly written in those ‼️or not written at all idk) and...yeah 😭 whole big mess...Dohko has to explain to Shiryu how and why he kept like...HUGE stuff from him all his life in order to protect him, also to Shion because "why the fuck didn't you say anything" (he cares for the kid and was afraid Sanctuary would take him from him), also I don't really remember how the whole Pandora plot point was made in the thread I made with the person on discord (sorry it was in march but I remember Pandora has a different plotline than in the og anime) but starting here it's just, yeah kinda the same I guess !! Except for the Ikki part/dynamic with Shiryu, but ONCE AGAIN it's a part of my Shiryu/Ikki plotpoint and it'd be too long (before some ask, YES, Ikki stops himself from killing him, because YES, Ikki cares about his friend group), also if it sounds silly sorry, but he sometimes (in the og anime) had a bit of extreme reactions, was willing to go pretty far to protect the people he cares about (Fenrir, Ikki...) and it could be a bit of a hint to his soul sometimes awakening to his Hadès self... He's not like, cruel or really mean, there's just sometimes something off about him, he sometimes "shifts" slightly and ppl can't really pinpoint what it is (not sure about this one does it make sense ???? Idk)
The most important parts of this AU are basically the developpement of his character through that "newcomer" lenses, learning to trust the others, and overall develop a more meaningful dynamic with them and giving him a bigger role !! I know it sounds a bit "Saint Seiya, everything is the same minus Shiryu is Hades" but there's more to that I swear, it's just hard to explain like this without making huge walls about dynamics
(Can you tell I'm shitting myself. Please don't be rude rlly, if you don't like the idea just ignore !!)

So, I am new to The Sandman fandom but I already see I am not the only one to think about the idea of Hob being the personification of Hope.
This was literally the first theory that popped inside my mind after I had finished watching the season, before I even opened any fandom platform lol. Either it's a very obvious logic leap to make, or we all share one single brain cell, despite living half a world apart and not knowing each other😂
But I haven't seen anyone actually connecting it to the Pandora's Box myth.
For those who do not know, the myth tells about the creation of humankind - that men were modelled from clay by Prometheus (which angered Zeus), then Prometheus gave them fire (which was the final nail in the coffin and Zeus decided to exact punishment), Zeus created the first woman Pandora, gave her a jar/box containing all bad things - suffering, illness, pain, sorrow, etc. - thus when she opened it, she ended the Paradise on Earth. But Zeus didn't know that Prometheus also snuck Hope (who Greeks called Elpis - she was depicted as a young woman usually carrying cornucopia flowers) into the box. When Pandora opened the box and released trouble and woe into the world, hope was there to help people survive.
Hesiod (the storyteller of the myth) does not say why Hope (Elpis) remained in the jar. The implications of Elpis remaining in the jar were the subject of intense debate even in antiquity.
Now, consider this: Dream and Hope actually knowing each other from before humankind on Earth, being dual aspects of each other - in Hades/Persephone fashion - they fell in love and Dream courted Hope; when Pandora's story happens and Prometheus comes for Hope's help (or Hope overhears Zeus' plans and comes to Prometheus proposing the plan herself), Dream is away for work/some other businesses somewhere. The events happen without Dream's knowing.
In the end we know Zeus exacts his revenge on Prometheus by binding him to a rock and having an eagle feed on him, but what if Zeus also decided to punish Hope? I know he would be a tier below Hope, because he was just a god, while Hope - a personified concept like Dream, but he could have done it sneakily, capturing her with magic, like it happened to Dream much later. What if Zeus, seeing the effect Hope had on humans thought it was useful and decided to kill two birds with one stone?
So he bound Hope to a human form - so Hope is always there for humans in their world, but also as her punishment, she is diminished to a mortal body, her human mind no longer able to contain her memories of her existence as a spirit/concept, bound to live a human lifespan, die, then be reborn again into a new human.
Dream returns and Hope is nowhere to be found, no one knows anything (no one was there when Zeus captured Hope), centuries pass of fruitless searching but humans are able to hope - and that must mean she is there somewhere and she is fine, so in the end Dream has no choice but to conclude that she decided to leave him and now hides from him out of her own volition.
And so, humans get hope, but Dream loses Hope.
All until many millenia later by pure coincidence he strikes a deal with a human called Hob Gadling - who has no idea he is the current reincarnation of Hope.
(I can't get rid of the mental image: after the struggles are over and Hob/Hope remembers everything, he pops up, feeling nervous and guilty and sorry, into the Dreaming, and Dream greets him with "You are late" said with a trembling smile).

"Hello everyone! my name is-"
"Pon!" "Gia!"
"-shhh! let me finish! Anyway, my name's Ellie."
// Hello everyone! Mod Pandora here, i've been super hyperfixated on pokemon these days, so i decided to go ahead and toss over my oc!
This will follow basic roleplay rules, so both "speech" AND action will be present.
Some basic lore before we continue:
This oc is based on all of my protags, having a rebirth/reincarnation sort of situation where every so often the protag of a previous game is reincarnated into the new protag, and she slowly remembers things from her past life.
Ogerpon and Koraidon are also on this blog!
now! onto basic oc lore!
Ellie is post-DLC and currently Paldea's champion! She has Ogerpon, Terapagos and Koraidon, but only Oger and Raidon in party. She's still on awkward terms with Kieran, though.
Rules:
don't be weird
magic anons are a-okay!
CROSSOVERS ARE FUN!! GO AHEAD!!
send me asks whenever!
send any asks containing triggering content with a cw/tw
and now! for some art and her party!

My spidersona! <3
So i cant draw but i can write so this is my spidersona!
Fate-Spinner, or Pandora Fae, is a spiderperson from Earth-001 (assumed).
The middle child of Gaea and Oshtur, She never cared for her sister’s competition until her sisters decided to pull her into their crossfire. In the middle of a shoving match, Shathra pushed her sister into a web which transported her to Earth-002 where she was basically reincarnated.
Earth-002 is a realm inhabited by gods who act as humans with curiosity and science as their tools, sorta like Asgard. Pandora was imprisoned right when the lead god, Zeus, felt her power being more than his own. When pandora started to make golden string, Zeus threatened her to change his fate and the other gods heard of this as well.
Experiments were conducted on her. Could her string choke her was an experiment that cracked her. Years of abuse and rage against this reality shattered it as she controlled the masses with her web. Effectively destroying that reality and jumping to a different one.
She found out that she could evade incursions. After all, she was the sister of the person who made spiderman multiverse practically.
She also found out that she was a variation of spiderman. The location she plopped in didnt have a spiderman so she became theirs.
Her powers: She has the ability to change the fate of any thing. A building, a car, a person, an entire universe even! The more people effected by the fate, the more string she has to handle to fix it. The string is a golden string that glimmers. On top of that, she can open someones fate string by rubbing her fingers together on it to make a ton of little stings and she can open that to see their entire story and future and fix it by moving something like a butterfly effect. She is also proficient in electronics. She also produces golden webs but only to swing. They arent sticky but more like rope. She can stick to walls.
Suit: Due to the amount of string she works with as well as how difficult is it to just manage one string with how many little strings there are, she has mechanic spider legs coming from her back. Her suit is golden and black. She sometimes wears a mask but its more a helmet with electronics like glasses.
Pandora is also a sister of fate. There are three across the universes with different stories but Pandora is my favorite so 💞

Avatar 2
I watched avatar 2 today, heres a summary. Avatar 1 Recap Earth is dying so humanity sent a bunch of marines to a habitable alien planet called pandora. The mission is to establish a foothold on the planet and make room for the rest of the humans, the problem is the planet is already inhabited by tall blue alien people called navi, they live in balance with the planet and whatnot and have stone age technology. Humans made test tube babie navae, and machines they used to transfer their consciousness to their vacant bodies, these are called avatar. Stuff happens and a human named John Avatar defects to the navae sides and leads a resistance agents humanity, driving them off the planet. also at the end of the movie he does a ritual and permanently transfers his consciousness from his human body to his avatar, switching species. Avatar 2 After the humans got kicked off the planet, John Avatar had a few kids with the alien lady from the previous movie, then the humans come back for a second try at colonizing the planet. They come in dick swinging and torch a entire forest just by landing and begin establishing a whole city at their land site. John avatar begins to lead a resistance group of fellow aliens agents the humans. (a few humans stayed behind on the planet, they have a kid named spider who was raised by the navae) Spider gets kidnapped by the humans, John Avatar is afraid he will give away their secret hideout so he decides his family has to move to keep them safe. He passes leadership to another guy and leaves the forest. They fly for a few days and end up at a sea side village and begin integrating with the people.  Meanwhile, they main Villain from the previous movie got reincarnated into a avatar since he died in the previous movie. Turns out spider is his biological son and since he’s spent his entire life among the navi he forces him to teach him the language and whatnot 
Back at the sea side village, character development is happening and john avatars kids are learning the ways of water Meanwhile, the villain from the previous movie (John Military) finds out John Avatar ditched the forest continent and went to hang out in a chain of islands. He tracks him down and starts terrorizing the local populace. News of this spreads and the seaside village starts preparing for war. John avatars kids get kidnapped because they were trying to save an alien whale from getting poached. (their brains have magic juice that makes humans immortal) John Avatar and leads the seaside village in a assault on a human aircraft carrier where their kids are being held hostage. Big fight scene happens where a professionally trained military force with advance weapons and technology get shit on by 10ft half naked blue aliens riding fly crocodiles and an angry space whale. Eventually all the humans ether die or flee the battle, its down to just John avatar and John military, John avatar NEARLY drowns military man but he's later saved by spider so he can have a redemption arc in the sequel. Also one of john avatars kids die but its okay because he decides to adopt spider as his replacement son. Movie ends with john avatar deciding to stay at the seaside village because home is where the heart is.

Why are there so many gods here?
SO! One day, the Eternal Trio decided to Check if they had ant past lives using Magic.
They already knew that Tucker was the Reincarnation of some Pharoah, so maybe they were also some historical figures in a last life.
It does not go as expected.
Danny finds out that he was the Ancient of Space, and the reason Clockwork was so invested in keeping him from being erased from Time is because he's his Brother apparently.
Sam finds out that she was the Embodiment of The Green, and Undergrowths attempt at Adopting her was some scheme to become the Parent of his used-to-be Queen while she was in Mortal Form, therefore overthrowing her.
Tucker finds out that Duulaman was just one in a long line of the Reincarnations of the Sun God Ra, and that he had been quite a few more historical figures in the Past.
They were surprised to figure this out, but then they got curious.
They tested the Spell out on Jazz, and found that she used to be an Amazonian Goddess, alongside Pandora.
They test it on Dash, and find that he used to be Hermes, God of Travel and Speed.
Ellie was an Embodiment of something called the Speed Force, who was also a child of Space before their rebirth, apparently.
They slowly realize that almost every person of note in Amity Park is the Reincarnation of some kind of God or Spirit. And none of them seem to realize that.
Why are there so many reborn Gods in this town?
...
Constantine is actually asking himself the EXACT same question at that very moment, after a botched teleportation spell landed him in Amity Park.

update on how i wasted 5h on the new xbc3 dlc story, new grips come to light:
feels a whole lot of the story was hinging on nostalgia bait rather than solving the plot holes in the main story, which is just peachy
matthew is not an interesting protagonist and is only there to represent the family feud in n’s long bloodline of fuckery. i thought matthew and a would have more synergy since they are literally the two faces of the game but they are just surface level friends with banter. a continues holding herself at arms length like alvis does for obvious reasons but this means matthew feels so isolated
nice loredump on xbc1 and xbc2 tho, i like the throwbacks to past places like colony 9 and uraya and prison island
i almost laughed when i saw the joran-looking guy die the first 10 minutes in lmao
the sharla and pandora reincarnations/children were pretty neat ig
shulk’s design in particular looks ugly af come at me bro
was it ever stated what happened to pyra/mythra? did they just die or revert back to the core crystal form? idk i didn’t watch the community stuff. also ig there are multiple green core crystals on glimmer and the fists of the end which is not confusing at all :/
i liked the detail that malos/logos is now the sword of the end and mythra/pneuma is fists of the end which is later noah’s gauntlet thing
confirmed that ghondor is n’s son and no wonder ghondor (main game) was pissed at her name lmaooo
i also liked the throwback to the gem crafting lmao
no explanation for lucky seven because of course
no explanation for riku either
no explanation for how shulk and rex and the others are still unassimilated but some of the other people get sucked into the cycle of reincarnation (i guess z is clumsy ha ha)
some explanation for how the city people don’t get fucked over by the two world merging at the end of main story ig
i literally said ‘what the fuck’ out loud when a said n wasn’t matthew’s enemy. like what the fuck. no.
oh wow imagine trying to justify n’s biggest crime of massacring an entire city of people ha ha wouldn’t it be funny if he didn’t actually murder them, absolving him of all crimes (bruh)
the dlc tried to hard to make n look sympathetic but i ended up hating him more. same for z man. like who invited you to the dlc party gtfo you didn’t even do anything
idk man i think na’el/alpha made a lot of sense in going for the new world esp with what happened in the end of the main story
a: yo but you saw what happened to klaus’s world! they decided to split it up and destroy it like dumbasses! that’s why your plan is bad! she says, literally ignoring that a world of peace is much better than whatever the fuck was the stagnant world of xbc3
also can i question why did alvis. just not leave without matthew. he had to fuck it up by showing himself in his physical form so that everyone could beat him up ten times over. cmon alvis
i feel like nikol and discount mythra could have been taken out of the story and nothing would have changed. what did they do other than be fanservice bait for the xbc1 and xbc2 ppl and have some bullshit ‘i promise to rebuild the city and carry on your legacy, dads :(’ like lmaooo
literally the ending of the main story was them deciding the future for themselves and them not wanting to stay in a stagnant world, something that contradicts the ending of the dlc like wtf
they went all the way, fought the god, just for a conclusion that didn’t matter because the two worlds merged anyway at the end of the game :)
i went into the dlc in the hopes of being able to complain that they locked the best part and best lore of the game behind a paywall but now i’m just disappointed. torna dlc was better. it had better pacing, better protagonist duo with lora and jin, started off stronger, didn’t have stupid flashbacks every three seconds same problem with xbc3 main story, better characters and character-synergy and humour. 
tldr it’s a waste of time not worth it, just play fire emblem engage instead goty fr

Saint Seiya - Pegasus Saints Deaths
I have already decided how each of the Pegasus Saints died as well as how old they died.
I've also decided to add their nationalities while I'm at it. This is going to be a long one so let's get on with it. Officially I'd say I'm a bad person.
1990 AD - Seiya 14 years old. Japanese. Currently in danger of death.
1748 AD - Tenma 15 years old. Kingdom of Prussia . 
Sacrificed his life along with Sasha and Alone to defeat Hades.
1506 AD - Jaidev 16 years old. Nepal. 
Killed by Hypnos during the final battle at the Sanctuary. Died in the arms of Sage and Hakurei.
1264 AD - Ganzorig 39 years old. Mongol Empire. Pandora and he killed each other.
1022 AD - Zareb 24 years old. Fatimid Caliphate (North Africa). Died of Tuberculosis
780 AD - Herve 26 years old. Holland (Carolingian Empire). 
Fought to the death with Rhadamanthys.
538 AD - Felix 12 years old. France (Kingdom of the Franks in the Merovingian period). 
Died due to the Poisoned Blood Ritual of the Piscis Saints.
296 AD - Tiberius 25 years old. Rome (Roman Empire). Suicide.
54 AD - Marcus 17 years old. Illyria (Currently Croatia), Conquered by the Roman Empire. 
Executed for treason after murdering his two masters. Eris influenced him.
188 BC - Alexandros 20 years old. Anatolia(Turkey). Fought to the death with Aiacos.
430 BC - Orisos 18 years old. Kingdom of Tartessos (Southern Spain and Portugal). 
He decided to end his life by giving his body to nature and start the reincarnation process as soon as possible.
672 BC - Chusor 17 years old. Phoenicia. Killed by Hades (but not with his sword).
914 BC - Badru 19 years old. Ancient Egypt. 
Dissected alive by the Golden Saint of Ophiuchus. After his death the constellation Ophiuchus was cursed and punished by Athena so he was demoted to Silver.
1156 BC - Rodorio 24 years old. Ancient Greece. He died because together with Athena he initiated the process of reincarnation.
As you can see I am a bad person, I think we all agree that Badru had the worst death.

Joined a Secret Santa event this year and got prompts for our ship! Naturally, I had to pick the hardest out of them cause I like to make myself miserable lmao- (TvT) Anywho! I originally signed up as an artist, but since the person who wanted this was good with ANY type of media, I took my creative liberties and began writing down potential plot too! Hope you enjoy them because I'm not done yet and this is just a preview before your ACTUAL Christmas gift, dear @ilsepfefferminz! Have a very happy holidays in the meantime, okay? ;-)
Tumblr media
Plot Summary:
The Anemo God saw how dangerous it is for anyone with malicious intent to hold magical jewels as they please (specially like that of Dvalin's tears), so he appointed someone to make sure those gems never reach the hands of evil. They can go about it however they like as long as they don't cause harm and the disciple they appointed chose to be a phantom thief. Unbound by mortal rules and laws. It started with his mother, then his father who was killed by a gang of bandits aiming for a specific gem of true eternity (that the Kurobas have never even heard of before then), and thus, it was a title passed on to their prankster of a son, Kuroba Kaito. Who studied from Sumeru (and absolutely obliterated the top scores at the Academia) and went back to Mondstat to become a carefree travelling performer after getting sick of studying for tests he could answer in his sleep, only to find out the truth of his lineage. Gaining the blessing of a certain bard and taking up the mantle, he becomes Teyvat's notorious (yet beloved) thief reincarnated, the guardian of any and all celestial gems, and the thorn to every sort of authority that challenges him, Kaitou KID.
He got the Anemo God's Blessing with a game of Poker. He won (and cheated), but Venti was a good sport about it. In fact, he found his guts to go against (and cheat on) an Archon to be hilarious and the bard DID agree to a FREE game so- ce la vie. The two of them got along like a house in the eye of a sentient hurricane. Not only because of their cheerful performer disposition, but also because Kaito can truly understand how the Anemo God feels about taking the place of someone once so adored and revered. It's a heavy burden. One that Kaito can also share.
Shinichi Kudo is a detective from Inazuma. His father rushed him to Fontaine in the guise of furthering his detective career when they heard early tales of a civil war coming about. Though danger knows following brilliant minds bring about entertainment as Shinichi soon found himself in a middle of a case that was as simple as finding a lost item for a (weird, but cunning) pyro catalyst (still being bitterly rejected by the Hexenzirkel) witch named Akako as a commission. Only to be forcibly corrupted by said missing item, a scarlet doublet gem, when a notorious bandit organization incidentally crossed his path during his investigations and decided to test the Prototype Pandora Poison (4869) on him in the form of a new yet undetectable potion. Finding out that instead of demise, it grants him the gift of longevity... at a price. His age was reduced in half and slowed to a snail's pace. Granting him the painfully long life and appearance of a young nekomata. A youkai who lives their days full of deathly screams and offers no peace despite his "blessing" of near immortality. To break the curse, at night he ventures to seek the same type of gem that brought his misfortune. For only when the moon rises does the poison in his blood give way for his true self to reappear for a time. Only then would he not have to hide behind the glasses & name of one childish, mischievous, yet eccentric: Conan Edogawa.
Some time ago, a young(?) dendro bow (in place of a gun) user named Haibara (with a knack for alchemy and brewing the deadliest potions- who was once offered a seat at the Hexenzirkel -which she boredly declined) revealed to Conan the description of the rare (legendary even) celestial gem that was added in the mysterious potion that the bandits used to curse him. If it could do that, then it'll most likely be needed for the reverse engineering process of his cure as well, she says. Thus begins his journey of traversing the countless domains of every nation at night and stumbling upon death after death in the day. (Even gaining unlikely allies from like minded folks such as a Natlan pyro claymore user named Hattori Heiji and a Fontaine hydro sword user named Hakuba Saguru.) Though it's disturbing, really. To be a detective that detest murder and yet to live in Teyvat, a world where slaughter is a means of one's own daily survival. Necessary and often morbidly understood, accepted, or encouraged. A world where nekomatas like him can barely take a break from the amount of killing that just happens everyday. The night have become his only relief. The only time to breathe and wherein he can actually curve the call of passing souls without feeling the suffocating obligation to solve their murder and lay them to rest as Shinichi Kudo should be a mere human who can't instinctively feel when someone dies from a fair city away. Far out of his reach. Still, it shakes his morality. Test his faith. In himself, in humanity, and in the gods. Remembering how he got his vision as he was being poisoned. Believing he's at the brink of death. Thinking how desperately he wanted for a little more time to exact his justice on those who wronged him... Just a little more time... And now? With the same power that drove his country to war at his fingertips? He's sick and tired of the irony of Eternity.
To think... That he'd find a man of morals similar to his own- one that despises murder with a burning passion -in the mind of a criminal most annoying of all people! He can still recall their first meeting at Fontaine. Detective Shinichi would just like to clear out some domains and check for a certain type of gem, if only that stupid thief won't stand in his way. KID's just here to do his job (and also find a certain gem to maybe get some rightful revenge on the side), thank you very much. But he must admit, the mysterious and evasive Detective of the East (who only appears at night- what's up with that-) can be very entertaining to match wits against.
On the other hand, when morning comes, Conan wonders what he did to deserve this. As a nekomata, he has his needs and being feline meant a new craving for fish and not just the celestial ambrosia that is coffee. Who knew then that he'd instead be catching a notorious prankster, once drowning in the water for unspecified reasons (by that, we absolutely mean that he's looking for a gem, though tantei-kun doesn't need to know that) and screaming bloody murder to all finny things, when he went out to go fishing that fateful day? Then later, said genius performer insisted on being the first member of his party (whether he likes it or not) as a concerned citizen who took upon the self-appointed duty of looking out for impressionable (albeit admittedly brilliant) children left on their own. To be fair, Conan thinks the guy is also, technically, a stranger. But time and again, Kuroba proves to be trustworthy enough. Still, why does Kaito-nii seem very curious about his distant "cousin?" And why does he remind Conan of that one silly fairytale from Sumeru of an incorrigible street rat that found a genie and became a prince in white lies? Curioser and curioser.
(Random fun fact. If Kaito can get along with Venti, Conan would probably get along with Diona if he ever paid a visit to the homeland of that stupid thief. It's because both Diona and him are young nekos who share a deep hatred for alcohol for one reason or another. He also gets along with Qiqi. What with their connections to death and aversion of Hu Tao. The director interested in the kid's ability to find corpses. Wanting to use it for her profit.)
(Shinichi's dad works for the Yae Publishing House as an award winning mystery novelist. Yuusaku and Yae Miko loves to terrorize either their editors or their readers and make a great (terrifying) team for it. Yukiko was an actress for the all-female Takarazuka Theater Troupe and she excels at both gender roles. The Phantom Lady is from Fontaine & both families feature a lot on the front pages of the Steam Bird. (That is before the Traveler.))

Now here's the tough question, if you can only have one, who would you pull for? XD

Final part of the [OC-centric] October challenge I was doing for Jesse and Tim!
For Jesse’s endgame, it’s been a while since I’ve thought about it, but I think it ends up wrapping up nicely with monsters and humans having to learn to live together. Jesse’s a lot happier, too. Not suuure how he manages it, but he does!
For Tim and Ratman’s endgame, I have a hard time deciding which one I like better, honestly, but I do think that the separation one is the “True Ending”.
Previous OC Challenge posts: [Part 1], [Part 2] & [Part 3]
Some of the details of the AUs can be found here: (x) (x) (x) (x) Otherwise, check under the cut for some quick and dirty details. And if you’re interested in them at all, be sure to peep their tags!
[Twitter | Instagram | Commission Info | Twitch | Kofi]
Mafia AU, Of Rats and Angels AU, Alien AUs, Solbound (Hex) AU, Royal Rats AU - In the links above!
Borderlands AU - (Deep breath)
Tim’s a Hyperion scientist working in Helios who was shoved in a tube and Got Skagged. Lyra was forced into becoming an artificial siren, but it went awry, creating Liysael (they rescued Tim and teamed up as accidental Vault Hunters).
Sol WAS The Warrior in the vault till he was discovered by Bob (a Hyperion worker in Helios), was like “I wanna tag along with you”, shrunk down into a more manageable form and got brought up to Helios to take a tour.
Abby (who I haven’t discussed in detail over here, they’re a demigod from my D&D campaign) was The Traveler in the vault that was discovered by two random people who were decidedly NOT Vault Hunters. They just got lost (Oz and Cere, the goblin and cat in that pic). Abby’s pretty amused, and VERY confused, by this.
Iggy and Marilyn (twins) were living a pretty cushy lifestyle, working in Helios. Then Marilyn decided he wanted to be a bandit on Pandora, snatches Iggy away, and they crash land to cause mischief. Somehow they end up stumbling across Pom.
I can’t remember, I think Roy may have already been a bandit at this point? Either way he does end up eventually meeting Boom.
It’s all a good fun time, don’t worry.
Sun/Moon God AU -
Details weren’t too solid on this one, but essentially Tim was a Moon God, Sol was a Sun God, unnamed bodyguard (Ratman) protected Tim, something occurred (like a solar flare or super nova) that Tim had “eclipsed”, which ended up killing him and reincarnated him as a mortal being. Sol and unnamed bodyguard (who decided possessing and reconstructing a rat was a good idea) came down to the mortal plane to try and get Tim back upstairs with them, but he had forgotten who he was before. Shenanigans ensue.
Among Us AU -
Tim, Oz, and Cere were space explorers who caught a distress signal from a GINORMOUS abandoned space station (with a LOT OF dead bodies on board among clear signs of a fight). The three got separated and Tim finds a kid (Lyra) hiding out and tells them to go to their ship for safety. Meanwhile Oz and Cere ended up exploring the ship on their own.
It turned out that Abby (an extremely powerful, chaotic God-like alien) had escaped from their planet, wanting to explore the galaxy. Liysael (an extremely powerful God-like alien as well) was sent out to get them back into containment. Sol (also an alien) was like “Wait, a ticket out of here, I’m following along”. A fight happens on board when both Abby and Lisyael clash, killing everyone on board except a lone kid, who Lisyael latches onto.
Abby, in fear and desperation to not be taken back, mistakes Sol for Lisyael, who Tim had bumped into after sending Lyra off to their ship. Abby get enraged at this and tries to kill Sol, who saves Tim after whisking him away from the situation (freaking Tim out cause OH MY GOD, YOU’RE ON FIRE). However Abby gets one last hit in, infecting Tim with a creature that, if it senses they’re too close to Abby, will try to keep Sol as far away as possible (Ratman).
Elsewhere, Oz and Cere are exploring the space station, getting into things and noting their findings (with Abby closely monitoring them, being outwardly annoyed by their gross little human forms). Eventually the three meet up, and Abby expresses explicit disinterest until they nearly get into life-ending trouble. Having grown attached to the pair, he does the only thing he can think to do: turn them into weird aliens to save their lives. It works, but he can’t turn them back. :/
Eventually Lyra (possessed by Liysael) meets up with Abby. Not sure how, but it’ll work out and this crew of aliens and humans-turned-aliens and humans-with-aliens-in-them will make this space station... into a space home. 🥺

Tarts of Remembrance
This connected to the drawing I did for it. I know it’s kind of late to do a story about it, but I was in the mood to do one. Plus I feel like this would give some light on Ann felt about Anne Boleyn’s death.
Jane Parker by @altairtalisman
Mentioned Katherine “Kath” Tudor by @ellielovesdrawing and Amalia “Mali” by @pandora-dusk
What should of been a normal day for Ann turn into experience she wouldn't forget. It started when she was in her shop finishing a work order. She was rebuilding laptop from scratch for a customer. They want high definition screen, large RAM, longer battery life, additional USB port, and latest computer programming. This took her some time to do with many countless hours of her sitting and looking at the screen to make sure it was running right. She also took necessary breaks from the computer to avoid straining her eyes. She got up from her stool she was sitting on, moved her shoulders around, took her glasses off to place them on her head, and decided to walk around her shop a bit as the final program was uploading. She walk into the storage room to see if she has enough inventory in stock or need to order some. As she was doing that, the front door chimed indicating that customer walk in to the shop and she head to the front of the store to greet them. When she walk to the front, she saw it was Jane P and smile a bit. What started as Jane accidentally walking inside Ann’s shop to get her radio fix turn into a small friendship. Sure there was small hiccups where Ann got little emotional seeing her due to their past history where Jane was kind of responsible for Howard’s death later her own death when they redeem her crazy, but they were able to talk out civilly and forgive each other. And the incident where Jane and her girlfriend, Mali, decide to burst into her shop half naked to avoid Mali’s sister wrath. That would be a day Ann isn’t going to forget about. As far as Ann knew, Jane and Mali were the only people who know she was back and working here. Jane promise Ann that she will keep it a secret, until Ann was ready to tell the queens she was back. She also told Mail the same thing too and she agree to it.
Ann walk to the counter as she said in a calm tone “Hey Jane, what brings you here? Did your radio break again or some else broke that needs repair?” Jane shook her head and walk to where Ann while answering her “Nothing like that. I don’t have anything broken yet and radio is running as fine as it could be thank to your repair. Just on my home from dance rehearsal and figure I’ll drop by here on the way. Do you have time to spare?” Ann crossed her arms and reply “Fortunately yeah. I just got finish with an order and wait for last installment to load completely, so I call the customer to let them know it’s ready. After that, i’m free for the rest of the day.” Ann notices something Jane was holding a white box, turn her head, and said “What’s in the box?” Jane place the box on the counter and told her “Well, Kath, a reincarnated you wouldn’t know and owns a bakery, came to the theater with this box. It’s test samples of treats she want to sale, but I guess she wants an opinion on how they are. I offer to test them and was going to share with Mali.” Jane then said as she rub the back of her head “I’m still bad about how that turn out. I didn’t think we would have to run all the way here half naked and hide in your shop from her sister.” Ann sighed and reply “It’s not like it the first time I seen someone half naked. I work at the palace, so it doesn’t fazed me. You guys were lucky I didn’t have anyone in here when it happen. I couldn’t imagine the problem this would have cause, if someone was. And already forgave you guys, so it’s okay. And I hope Mali like them.” Ann smiled a little after saying this.
Jane look at Ann, place her hand on the box, and ask her “Do you want one? I'm sure Mali and I can’t finish all of it. Plus it would nice for Kath to have more input on them and have outside opinion, rather then friends thoughts.” Ann raised her hand and told her “Sorry, but I have to pass. I really don’t have a sweet tooth. Plus I don’t want to intrude on your guys lovely snack.” Jane shook her head and said “ No, I insist. And it’s the least we can do for hiding us in your storage room.” Ann knew she isn’t going take no for answer and would lead to back and forth talking, so she sighed and answered “Fine, but only one. I don’t want to ruin my dinner later on. I do need to eat a proper meal.” Ann begin to walk to the back and ask Jane before she left “ Can’t eat these without something to drink. Do you want me get you canned coffee or bottle water? Sorry I don’t have many choices. The shop doesn’t have a kitchen, but I do have fridge to keep my drinks and food when I bring some.” Jane look little confuse when she heard canned coffee. She didn't know you could get coffee in a can, but remember that there canned tea, so it shouldn't be too far off. Jane replied "Coffee, please." Ann nodded and head to her workspace, where the fridge was. She took out two cans, closed the door, and head back to the front. She place the cans on the counter near the box and hand one to Jane. Jane took it and thank her. She crack open it, took a sip, put it down, and said "It's not bad. I prefer my caramel macchiatio, but this is acceptable." She took another sip and said " You know was funny, your sister has coffee addiction and can't live without it, so I'm wondering if it runs in the family." Ann chuckled a little as she open hers and answered " I see that happening. She always stay up all night writing or learning something when I used to serve her. Unfortunately to tell you that I don't have coffee addiction. I only drink these whenever I feel like it and only get these because they're convenient and lot more cheaper to buy than those overpriced coffee shops. Don't get me wrong. I do go to them, but I can't imagine spending that much money and waiting in those line for cup of coffee everyday." Jane heard this and kind agree with her on that part.
They both turn to the box, Jane open it up, and look at all of sweets. There were different types of it and Ann didn't know which one to get. As Ann mentioned before, she didn't have a sweet tooth, so she didn't know which one were too sweet for her. Ann decide to grab a tart because it look the less sugary and look at it before taking a bite into it. As she chewing on it and enjoying the taste of it, this remains her of something, but can't remember what. She know this can't be from her current life, since she would remember that due to that she wasn't allow to get any sweets growing up and when she was able to, it make her feel a little sick. She look at the tart to see what was in it and something clicked in her head. She stare at it and thought "It can't be..." She took another bite of it and sure enough it was it, but how. She remember that no one was allowed to these, except for him and the family. She remember that perfectly when it happen and how sad she was because she really like them. Jane noticed Ann react and ask "Are you okay there? Did you get something you didn't like? You can choose something else. There a lot to pick from." This snapped Ann out of it, she shook her head, looked at Jane, and told her "It's nothing like that, but you should try this tart though. It's something." Ann hope that Jane would taste them and remember what these are, since she was there too when it happen. Jane looked confused on how Ann was acting, but she listen to what she said. Jane grab the tart and bit into it, which Jane had reaction from it and looked at Ann. She ask "Are these...." Ann smiled a little and answered "I guess they become public after our lifetime. The tart we used to eat when we served as ladies/maids in waiting at the palace." With that, they didn’t say anything afterwards. How could they? They used eat these after hard days work and talk to other maids/ladies as they enjoy them. These were made for them, but that ended when the king found about them and forbid anyone from eating them, unless it was made for him and his family.
After thinking a bit, Jane ask “ So Ann, what was your first time having these?” Ann crossed her arms, closed her eyes, and reply “It was a couple of weeks when I first started working at the palace. I was so young and innocent back then. I was so eager to learn everything and be as good as mother. I worked day in and day out trying to figure things out without messing up. Once day when I was done with my work, I was so tired and was ready to rest, but I was also hungry. I forgot to eat lunch that day and knew the kitchen didn’t have food left, so I was going to rest with an empty stomach when I smell something good. I follow it which lead me to the kitchen and saw Anne was baking something in it. I hide behind the wall and spy on her to see what she made. When I saw what she made, it made my mouth water and I wanted to try it, but knew I couldn’t since it was unladylike to invite yourself to something when you’re not welcome. As I was thinking, my stomach growl, which catch Anne attention, and she told me to come out. I came out and Anne smiled at me. She ask me if I want one and I politely decline, until my stomach growled again. Anne told me I can take one since she made it for other eat too, so it would no harm down. I then took one and ate it. It tasted so good and made Anne chuckle a bit. She ask for my name and she told me hers. We soon walk out the kitchen with tarts in hand and head to other were to enjoy them.” Jane listen to Ann’s story and thought it cute. She wish her story was that enjoyable, but it was just bland and boring. Jane said happily “That sounds amazing. To think you were there when Anne made them all though years ago. Bet you had some more stories about you two” Ann shook her head and answer “ Not really. I just follow Anne as we did our duties and I help her out with tarts to share with everyone, until the king found out them and banned us to eat them. I was sad when it happen and didn’t think I would eat them again, until Anne become queen and found a way for sneak some for me since she knew I like them. She became a role model to me and wanted to be like her. I took in all of the teaching she taught me and became devote to the religion she was in. Of course that where it all end” When she said, she lower her arms and open her eyes with a sad look.
Jane notice this and spoke sadly “ Ann...” Ann interrupt her as she raise one hand, place on the counter, and talked “ I know what you are going to say. You’re going to tell me it wasn’t my fault that she died, how there nothing I could of done to stop her beheading, or I shouldn’t had this guilt, since I was child when this happen, but I can’t. I look up to her as a role model, I want be like her, and I let her died. How am I suppose to feel? I feel like I let her down and her blood was on my hands. I know there nothing I couldn’t done to stop it, but I feel like I could of done something. Talk some sense into you, find the person who falsely accused her of adultery, anything would do. I fail her as a student and a terrible friend” As she was saying this, he crutch her hand tight and started to cry. Jane saw this and felt bad about it. She already felt bad for what happen to Boleyn and knew she was partly blame for it. She walk around the counter where Ann was and hugged her. She then explain to her “I don’t think Anne blame you for what happen to her. She know who to blame for that and I still have some guilt for it. I pretty sure she doesn’t expect a child to stop a king and the whole court, but I do know that she would be trilled to see you again when you are ready and she don’t want you to carry this guilt. I know my words isn’t much, but I can saying as a friend that you are not a failure or terrible person. You forgave me for what happen to Howard and took on this burden that you shouldn’t taken. That alone tells me that you are a better person that anyone in that court and people who condemned her.” This made Ann smile a little and said “Thanks” Jane replied “Just paying back the kindness you gave me.” Jane let go of Ann and said “Now that over with, do you want to continue enjoying these sweet or are you done?” Ann look at the box of sweets and look at the tarts. She turn back at Jane and answered “ Well, I do want you to save some for Mali, so I take one more tart and leave you guys the rest.” Ann grab a tart and bit into it as she drank some of her drink. Jane smile a bit as Ann went back being happy. Jane still has some guilt that may take time to heal, but it nice to see that she isn’t alone with it and has someone to talk to about it. Jane walk back to her drink and drank some of it as they talk about bittersweet memories. Maybe they can both overcome the guilt they have someday.

Okay so I went off on this huge ass rant from a episode I got through watching because I really didn’t think I would get extremely pissed off at the actions of someone else fiction character which is still weird to me.
Though all it did was give me more energy to type!
Tumblr media
So here’s the thing, just like I mentioned on this post regarding the loading screen and the prologue opening. The fandom wiki, Albedo and Kaeya’s stories, more so Kaeya could be a human survivor of Khaenri’ah since his story states his dad had sent him as a sleeper agent in Mondstadt because of their involvement 500 years ago. Yet we know where Kaeya lies in terms of his mission and his current home.
With Albedo’s story he practices the same alchemy this known Alchemist of Khaenri’ah use to practice, and it’s that very alchemy that could’ve aided in the Kingdom’s downfall and how the Abyss order was created alongside it’s end. The Alchemist, Gold, got crazy greedy and caused the monster house that swarmed Tevyat through the powers of the Abyss.
This Abyss serves the same idea as Pandora Hearts’ Abyss in terms of time and how it changes people, alongside providing reincarnation, of course PH’s Abyss was only like that because Levi Baskerville couldn’t help but be a curious bastard and screw up PH Abyss’ whole system.
This could possibly be the excuse or one of the motives the Unknown God had because of Gold and what they have done, painting Khaenri’ah as one huge target on their backs for not only have build a city without any help from a God or the Seven, practically building a robot army for combat, and a alchemist on a power trip.
Now as for the twins, they were escaping Khaenri’ah with the intent of finding another home for themselves, but also because they were fleeing the scene like what happened in the prologue UG intercepted them through the pathway that might’ve served as a gate for Gold or Albedo’s teacher to use for their research and the twins were planning on using it to get to the next world they had in mind. 
Though how did they know that was the main thing that bothered me, the Abyss!Twin or Lumine in Miyoho’s case, must’ve known how to access the gateway from Gold before or during Khaenri’ah was in the process of getting attacked by the Archons and UG, so when they were in the middle of escaping the twins were witnessing the destruction of the Kingdom that provided them a place of rest. 
So after the two were sealed by UG, the Abyss!Twin was either freed or managed to break free because of the Traveler!Twin’s attack on UG, not also completely sealing their power but causing them to once again be back in Khaenri’ah during the war and witnessing the fate of the kingdom’s people as well as that of the Eclipse Dynasty.
During that time, Dainslief is cursed to roam around as a human while his people and the nobles of Khaenri’ah are monsters of the Abyss with revenge in their hearts while the Ruin Guards and their variations roam without a master save for the Abyss Princess/Prince who join in breaking down the Archons after witnessing and being apart of the kingdom’s fall. 
I also wanna bet they became highly active during the Fauti’s efforts of stealing the Archons gnosis and decided to attack Mondstadt first with Dvalin because of their help during the event.
