#altair apf

[thegreatyin]

i think rigel legally counts as a serial killer and everyone in apf lowkey knows this but 1) he's single-handedly acted as a bodyguard for pretty much every single important person in arboret including himself for 1.6k years and therefore can get the self-defense argument in 9/10 cases. and 2) he's impossible to arrest because he can bend the bars in half and make them into paper cranes without breaking a sweat. also 3) he has the little guy charisma of a bluebird

#yin-thoughts #apf #the canonical reason why all the arboret monarchs dont have guards following them everywhere like altair and canis? #yeah. that's just rigel. he just does that. if you pulled a knife on betel he'd manifest from 20 miles away to kill you #this technically makes it the safest place to be a royal but also the unsafest (because rigel is there)

drew @thegreatyin's stupid idiot apf boys (affectionate)

infinitely funny to me that altair is the only cis monarch

What would they do if stuck in a room with the person they’ve been avoiding? - celestial trio (individual answers but. those 3)

okay see the thing is the person altair and canis have been avoiding is rigel and the person rigel has been avoiding is. well. okay altair and canis as well but a highly specific character related to his secret emo backstory works too

altair would simply do what he does in any social interaction!!!!!!!!! aka stand to the wayside and say absolutely nothing unless directly prompted and just kinda look vaguely uncomfortable and scary the whole time. if he had to make small talk he'd keep his words curt and to the point and probably with no small amount of aggression in his tone (9 times out of 10 he doesn't necessarily mean it) (he's not good at small talk) (someone please help him)

canis, by contrast, is a lot more actively sociable and open to conversation! whilst being very awkward and maybe too overly-enthusiastic about it. he's the type to try and make the best out of a bad situation and unless he's refuted he'll be attempting to get along with/tolerate the other person until they're both free. hi im the king of sanctus you've probably heard of me, how are you doing, how's your day been, etc etc. he leaves the scene with suspiciously even more enthusiasm afterwards but at least he can walk the walk about it

rigel is not spending one single minute in this situation. he is prioritizing Leaving. he is simply ripping the door off its hinges and walking away. if he can't do that because it's some sort of social thing or (god forbid) the door is rigel-proof he's going to start metaphorically eating the walls. possibly actually. he's absolutely not going to be the one prompting conversation but unlike altair he will respond and carry it along once it starts. he probably has the raw charisma multiplier to manage for maybe half an hour tops but any longer and he will start trailing off and making bad excuses to leave and stop talking

as a bonus, if all three of them were stuck together with This One Hypothetical Guy they'd all be trying to avoid, canis would be the hard carry of this situation. altair is being altair in the corner and rigel's staying quiet for once in his life going ^u^ and inside he is screaming in a thousand ancient languages nobody who's alive can even understand anymore. canis pastes the biggest smile on his face he can muster (that nobody can even see behind his mask) and acts like everything's fine and dandy for all three of them and then the minute they're each allowed to leave they all scatter to the winds in different directions like lemmings

#thanks for feeding me arrow lol #ask #apf #altair has a reputation in-universe for being this stern and uncaring hideaway that rarely comes out of his dramatic gothic castle #everyone talks about him like he's gonna throw you off a cliff if you do one (1) thing wrong by him. intimidating serpent guy #meanwhile altair in reality is sitting completely silent with anxiety at the restaurant because the waiter got his order wrong #but he's too shy to ask them to fix it #shoutout to that one line from volpi's fic. 'the king of requies? hosting a social event? WILLINGLY?? it's a miracle!' #rigel meanwhile when he cant stand things and/or is avoiding something he is REALLY not standing and/or avoiding things #he's putting his entire rigussy into it #canis is holding this trio's entire actual social braincell. rigel just pretends like he has one to begin with #i love the celestial trio. snake that doesn't want to be here sun that doesn't want to be here bird that doesn't want to be here #love WINS <3

[thegreatyin]

the esteemed and feared? king altair aquilae, fifteenth on the requian throne and inheritor of emperor polaris' might, power, and form,

and,

and his only trusted advisor, a fruit bat.

also featuring a bonus no-shading image, because look at that drip altair never wears and hates! woah!!

#yin art #apf #the fate of altair like the fate of rigel is to never be taken seriously except for when i do and then they. well. they are. #...........mostly. #noctule got a slight design update that i'll probably change later anyway #funnily enough due to lifespan proportions altair is actually in the prime of his youth at the ripe age of 48 and therefore #is in fact both literally and proportionally FAR younger than noctule. can you tell. #due to me forgetting their fucking glasses it is now canon that noctule wears contacts sometimes. such as here. #shhh.

[thegreatyin]

happy pride month to all those who celebrate. anyway so i drew snits (snake tits) that are under the cut because i just barely have enough common sense not to suddenly ambush people with inexplicably gay art

king altair aquilae fifteenth on the throne of requies and absolute repressed gay icon spotted lounging on the beach. politely asked to keep his shirt off.

#i spent more time drawing that fucking chair than the actual snakeman and now i refuse to look at it any longer so if it's weird oh well #yin art #this is like. the raunchiest my blog will ever get #apf #i was bullied into the leather pants #i think every time i draw altair he gets more bear. good. #anyway do i need to actually tag for anything. uhh probably not..? maybe? #it's not nsft or anything it's just. Shirtless Man. what you see is what you get #he'd never do this canonically but imagine if he did. life could be a dream.

[thegreatyin]

hey

#yin art #apf #don't ask me why im asking this. if you're new here don't even ask who altair is. just use your instincts. #if you need a voiceclaim for this poll his is the disturbed sound of silence cover

[thegreatyin]

immortal/long-lived races are incredibly funky when you start measuring them proportional to their lifespan (if they even have one). 48 year old altair, who lives to be 250, is like physically still in his 20s. like. that old man should be at the club

#my excuse for 2/3 races in apf is that aging is just. Relatively Pretty Slow compared to us #and for divinains it's extra slow and in the case of The Two Featured Special Kids they physically freeze at around the 30-40 mark #yin-thoughts #funnily enough rigel's physical age is solidly ALSO only around his late 20s despite the aforementioned lore about royal divinains #but we're not getting into the rigel age debate in the tags #apf #altair's only an old man because his tired depressed swag is just strong enough to manifest on the outside

[thegreatyin]

thinking about the Original celestial trio

#aka rigel with canis' and altair's ancestors (9th and 15th removed respectively) #alternative title: three gay old men walk into a bar. rigel is the only one who ducks under it. #yin art #apf #all requies royals have all 3: #goth #nerd #homosexual #fun fact rigel is nakey here but shh it's okay he's got wings

[thegreatyin]

i think if mimue tumblr was real it would be incredible

#yin-thoughts #apf #there was thought that went into those urls #rigel uses a simple obvious name that he had to pay another user for (not pictured) because he's been impersonated hundreds of times #fomal didn't stoop to rigel's level and instead just took the first random number username that popped up #aldeba was actually clever with his url and uses his account to talk shit about his job because he deserves it. #aldeba also has the highest follower count (in mimue universe tumblr) #and altair is an old man who doesn't actually use tumblr as anything but as one of those Official Corporation Accounts #but sometimes. sometimes he breaks character. #anyway yall dont know the effort that went into this one shitpost okay i had to make like four sideblogs

[thegreatyin]

snake men that i'd call babygirl

#yin art #apf #altair's solution to being flustered is hiding in the fluff of his coat and refusing to come out. #this is also his solution to every other emotion ever.

[thegreatyin]

kissing the man, perfectly human, is dilf loving. kissing the monster, completely monster, is monsterloving . if he has a mid-point between human and serpent and is horrifically in-humane, but still human enough to recognize, that is monster dilf loving. or, if you'd like, milf. Monster i'd like to f

everyone shut it all down we got an answer. altair's a milf

#ask #apf #canonically colorans (altair's species) can't go in-between (it's always either full humanoid or animal) #but his human form DOES have natural biolights on his skin so that technically counts right

[thegreatyin]

quick warmup doodle of rigel infodumping before i dive headfirst into art for paimak's blog tomorrow

#yin art #apf #the end of july is gonna be busy (for demon king blog) #he's talking about mimue history or something. stupid stupid man #also yes rigel is autistic this is canon information. so are betel and pollux and altair. and volpi. any further questions

[thegreatyin]

new crack oc ship just manifested and it's the opposite energy of rigel and caeru

#(greylu and canis) #yin-thoughts #if you know how canis and altair were made it's technically a meta joke #apf #hag

[faemytho]

so, i've got a couple prompts left over in my inbox from that send a sentence challenge i did a week or something ago, and i do plan to write those, but @thegreatyin's world APF grabbed me by the goddamn throat and refused to let go ♥️

it's so captivating and interesting, so, as with all things i hyperfixate on, i started badgering yin abt it, we started talking abt hypotheticals and, uh. this happened. uwu. big shout out to yin for putting up with my endless pestering. bro ily

Rigel's back hits the wall behind him, only slightly neglected feathers puffing out in surprise. Altair doesn't wait for him to even gasp, tipping his head back with a hand under his chin and firmly pressing their mouths together.

He's rough. Maybe that's why Rigel feels so intoxicated by him. It's exhilarating, and so, he closes his eyes and meets Altair's kiss with the same force. Altair's hands slide down from his face, and then, he's being lifted up and pinned above the ground, Altair's own body suspending him there. He can no longer think. All he can do is feel, and he's thankful for it. He'd come to hate the sound of his own thoughts, and the king, - one of his soulmates, who would have ever thought? -, kisses that away.

Altair holds him up against the wall, kissing him with angry fervor. It's all Rigel can do to wrap his legs around the king's waist and pull him ever closer, lost in the haze Altair manages to make him feel. He can feel Altair's chest against his own, feel every beat of the closed off heart of the Coloran king. He can feel every tiny breath Altair takes as he kisses Rigel, again and again. Each one is harsh and relentless, and his lips will definitely be bruised later, but he can't really bring himself to care right now.

He'd said something stupid, and it had pissed Altair off. Maybe, he thinks to himself later, he should say more stupid things if this is the direct result of it.

A warmth presses against his lips, tracing them, and Rigel swallows down a noise once he realizes what it is. He parts his lips, and Altair's tongue slides past them with a kind of familiarity that, to Rigel at least, feels like they've done this a thousand times before. Dimly, he hopes they'll do it a thousand times more.

Altair is strong, sturdy, angry and rough, and though Rigel feels like he's trapped between a rock and a hard place, he *never* wants to leave.

"Altair, Rigel, are you in h- oh my- oh."

The tongue is gone, the rough lips pull away, and Rigel is left dazed against the wall and propped up on Altair's hips. Gradually, he manages to look over to see just who interrupted them.

King Canis stands there, hands covering his mouth and nose. He's wide-eyed, staring, and his blush is so brilliantly bright that not even his hands can cover all of it. Now that the haze of Altair's mouth against his own is fading away, Rigel can't help but think to himself how positively adorable the other king, - his other soulmate -, looks like that.

"I, um," Canis squeaks, eyes darting between Rigel and Altair, and somehow, the blush on the Lavian king's face grows darker. "Sorry, I- I'm going to-"

Without another, cute, flustered, adorable word, Canis steps back and practically flees the room. After a moment, Altair lets out the most exhausted sigh Rigel's ever heard him breathe.

"So, are we going to get back to that, or," he can't help but ask, and the Coloran king gives him a silent, suffering look. He drops Rigel and strides out of the room, not even looking back to see the way the Divinain monarch stumbles, leans against the wall, and tries to play it off as one smooth, suave movement.

Left alone in the room, Rigel huffs, crossing his arms and pouting for nobody to see. "Killjoy."
