headcanon that as sophie ages, she gets more and more off-put by how she still looks twenty at some age past 40. the only wrinkles she has are smile lines and a barely-there crease between her eyebrows that never leaves. no gray hairs. it doesn’t feel like there’s any physical evidence of how much stress aged her too fast.
(maybe she dyes more grays into her hair to feel better about her reflection, the more time passes by. maybe, on bad days, she contours wrinkles into her skin with makeup. maybe the bad days get more frequent as she ages outside the human lifespan. maybe.)
#i feel like fitz and dex are the only friends of hers that really get it#since fitz understands more surrounding human cultures than most elves thanks to his firsthand experience in the search#and dex grew up with his mom’s romcoms#which would probably show some human perspectives on aging#and his mom explaining some things that didn’t quite make sense to Smol Dex#but i’ve always imagined sophie turning up on fitz’s doorstep in the middle of the night#with tears running down her face and saying she didn’t know who else to talk to about almost-immortality feeling so so so wrong as she#gets older. not necessarily just because he knows more about humanity than most of her group#but also because like. there’s some part of her that says ‘if he can help you through learning to be an elf at 12 maybe he can help you at#42 too’. and they’re cognates. and they’ve gotten old enough to set aside teenage grievances with one another#and i like the idea of them sitting on a couch together by lamplight and trying to navigate the cultural and personal differences#in how the two of them and humanity and the lost cities view mortality#and not really reaching a concrete conclusion. but rather. a conclusion that keeps the two of them sane until they reach triple digits.#and then they have the conversation again. and come up with a plan to stay sane in their triple digits. and the same thing pops up in their#thousands. idk man the whole thing screams trust down to the bone and that’s what they should have when the war is over#is there anything more Cognate than talking through wildly different fears surrounding the same thing that make both parties#super vulnerable??? down to how your minds work in the face - or lack of - death?#maybe so but i can’t think of them off top of my head#kotlc#sophie foster#kotlc headcanons#keeper of the lost cities

=> Be the immature dolt
Your name is TEREZI VANTAS
You have a penchant for VALIANT DEEDS and fancy yourself to be a KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOUR. You enjoy pretending to slay dragons but you realize you're often too scared to leave your hive, so if you encountered a real dragon you don't know what you would do. Still, in your head, you are a BRAVE WARRIOR and save beautiful maidens. You are also plagued by the voices of the past, who often deliver upon you CRYPTIC MESSAGES. You're just like your ancestor!
The main reason you don't leave your hive is the blistering sun, which has ruined your eyes completely. You do wear a pair of SICK GOGGLES given to you by a mad scientist. You also are afflicted with a rare MUTATION that makes your blood...well, we don't need to get into that.
You are a PATRON OF THE ARTS and have been in a few very private plays, mostly from the great playwright TROLL WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE. You always play the hero. It makes you feel good to be the one to protect people. You would also really like to Flarp, but as previously mentioned you are a COMPLETE COWARD.
Your Trollian handle is charmingArmour and you type W1TH PL3NTY OF 34G3RN3SS!
=> Be the pretentious asshole
Your name is KARKAT MEDIGO
You are a WANDERING HISTORIAN, dedicated to preserving history that would otherwise be lost to the sands of time. Time itself endlessly fascinates you, and you always have the PROPER TOOL OF MEASUREMENT on you at all times. You have all your things organized perfectly in your ever-present BRIEFCASE. You have no permanent place of residence, and you enjoy roaming.
Your blood colour doesn't matter to you, but you are the LOWEST CASTE. You don't let this disrupt your relations with other trolls, in fact, it just makes you more excited to learn more. You actually have a very LOW OPINION of the caste system and are part of an organization that wishes to abolish it.
Speaking of organizations, you consider yourself a part of a group of ESOTERIC WANDERERS who go about their universes helping people. Your main focus is preservation, and that perfectly suits your interests. The other members of the group also do wear SPIFFY SUITS so you fit in perfectly. Not much is actually known about you, you rarely share information about yourself. You enjoy the ELEMENT OF MYSTERY.
Your Trollian handle is twostepTango and you speak WITH A COMMANDING...YET MYSTERIOUS PRESENCE

its been so long since Ive ever even really played hk but the way emotions are conveyed through the environment and music (I don't mean boss fights etc., just solo exploring) reduces me to to a puddle

are you a soldier, a poet, or a king?
Tumblr media
A SOLDIER. "There will come a soldier who carries a mighty sword. He will tear your city down." Righteousness. Strength. Violence. You see a door and break through it. You wonder, sometimes, if anger is the only thing you can feel. Remember: Love is passion, too. You made your own rules and will follow them to death. You try and forget that there is only one rule and that it is to FIGHT. You are tired of fighting. You try to forget that, too, and keep going. You dream of quiet. Your love is where you heal. God knows you deserve to. ( Really. You deserve to. )
