considering steve and danny have the worst timing and are prone to miscommunication, it would be just steve's luck if one day he decides he's finally had enough and it's time to tell danny how he feels about him, whatever happens it'll be out on the open and he could finally try to move on if the answer isn't the one he's hoping for.
danny listens to steve's confession with a shock and surprise but clear elation like he's getting an unexpected welcome gift, before he seems to have some realization, disappointment washes over him, his face falls and he says 'YOU THINK IT'S FUNNY TO PLAY WITH MY HEART? AM I A JOKE TO YOU? NEVER TALK TO ME AGAIN'.
he storms off leaving distraught and confused steve in his wake, trying to understand where it all went so wrong. then he hears someone say 'happy april fool's, idiot' and it's 'OH SHIT'.
of course the day steve finally decided to confess his love for danny he assumed steve was playing a prank on him. steve was lucky not to experience danny's mean right hook again.
his new mission is to find danny and convince him he wasn't kidding. a mcgarrett always completes his missions.

If you don’t mind, which yandere twst boys do you see being most likely to exploit a mentally exhausted prefect to kidnap them?
To clarify, I think it can be argued that the prefect would be absolutely done with NRC after six life-or-death situations due to the overblots on top of being forced to adapt to education system of another world and putting up with the quality of students at NRC. You can’t tell me that a school full of villains would treat the only magicless student well. That just screams prime opportunity to manipulate the prefect into leaving NRC to go somewhere “safer” with one of the boys.
Once again, I’m just curious about your thoughts so don’t feel pressured to respond!
yes yes yes!!!
poor perfect tired to the bone from crowly and the other students. if only there was a knight and shining armor that can come and save them.
No longer an accidentally post! But I mean it did help me finish it lol
~Mental-Exhausted!Mc~
Yan!Riddle x mc
Yan!Leona x mc
Yan!Jamil x mc
Yan!Lilia x mc
Warnings: yandere, kidnapping, drug use (shrink potion), abusive behavior, chains, collar, gag, parenthood (gender-neutual), gritting teeth(?) (I know some people hate it so ill put it in here), not a lot of proof-reads,
~~~~~
Riddle
yes, riddle was the first overblot (technically) and after his overblot, he felt awful about how he behaved. he was supposed to look after Heartslaybu but he ended up becoming his mother. he hated himself for that.
So now, not only is he taking better care of his dorm, with the help of his dorm. but whenever he sees you, he tries his best to check up on you.
How are you? Do you need help with any school assignments? etc.
they all had sweet intents at first but over time, you started to look drain.. like the life was sucked right out of you. when he asked ace and deuce, they confirmed that you were just tired of all the overblots and being crowley's lap dog. if only he knew how to help you...
at first he asked, trey and cater about how he should help you. they were mature enough to know, right?
cater, being cater, teased him on "having a crush on the perfect" or how he phrased it "oooohhh you are down bad!! lol" whatever that means...
Trey said that maybe ask the perfect if they do need help. but Riddle knows the perfect, they'll say they're fine even when they're not..
riddle felt lost and swallowed his pride as he dials his mother's number.
his mother was furious with the fact that riddle was facing an issue he cant fix himself but what she said about perfect shocked him.
"well.. maybe if this perfect isn't as perfect as their title, maybe they don't belong in Night Raven College!"
with that... the call ended.
now that he wasn't being held by his mother's strings, he saw red...! no one talks about his perfect like that! but.. she has a point.. (which makes him more frustrated) if perfect is miserable here... maybe they shouldn't be attending NRC. but where would they go...?
when he thought about that, he realized he didn't really want to be away from you... you mean too much to him.
so later that day, he requested you to join him in his room, he need to talk to you. you agreed cause why would you be cautious with someone you trust, plus you were too tired to worry about how strange the request was. he gave you tea and asked if you were okay.. you said yes, just stressed with some classes and drank you tea. it tasted... off.
you feel yourself shrinking.. you were shrinking!
you looked at riddle and he was just smiling at you! he picked you up and placed you into a tea pot.
"it'll be okay, my dear. once i graduate and get us a nice home, we'll live our happy lives away from this stress and... toxic poison. But for now, you'll have to behave. i love you, my dear"

Leona
Whether you noticed him or not, Leona watches you run back and forth, from hallway to hallway. Kinda like a mouse running around for food but also staying hidden. Sometimes your running around helps him sleep or just ease him to a zen.
He'd normally wouldn't bat an eye because you're just a lap dog for that crow. But after time has past. He watched as you get slower, more exhausted. like you're pushing to prove something. It ercked him more than he would like. It hit too close to home for him.
When he finally was able to approach you on the matter, you looked like your soul was taken from you. Something within just snapped. He had enough of this. He made the call and suddenly, savanaclaw students came to your side and dragged you to leona's room. If you try to resist, Leona lucky told them to not hurt you too badly. But accidents happens. With their rough handling, you blacked out.
You wake up with a pretty collar around your neck and a chain attach to it? You look around and this is not your ramshackle room. You tried to sit up for a better look and get quick pulled down by the chain collar. It nearly broke your neck! But Leona would say you're being dramatic.
"Quick moving, im trying to sleep.."
You looked and saw Leona. He was laying on your chest and his legs were holding your legs down. He was like a strange weighted blanket. He wasn't in his school uniform but looks like he's in home attire?
"Where are we, leona..?"
You said, scared cause your literally in the hands of a lion that could kill you really quick..
He ears twitched and he looked up at you, bored. But he let out a smirk.
"Were home~"
It took you a minute to process what he said... home? Apparently your confused was evident on your face and leona let out a long sigh. He moved or above you, pining you down.
"Were at Sunset Savanna palace and WE are both gonna be staying here until I can trust you'll be a good obedient herbivore and stay by my side."
You were lost for words and unconsciously started to struggle under leona. Trying to push him off, kicking your legs, he got really annoyed when you accidentally pinched his tail with the bed and your foot.
His retaliation was to slam you down, knocking the wind out of your lungs. As you were gasping for air, he bit you really hard on your throat. You let out a silent scream. You thought you were going to die. This was your last moment of life.
Leona eventually let's go but quickly replacing his fangs with his hand.
"You WILL be obedient... do I make myself clear.."
That wasn't a question.. it was a demand.
Tumblr media
~~~~~
Jamil
Jamil hardly noticed you.. PERIOD.
He's busy not only taking care of scarabia but also their housewarden. While his housewarden takes the credit.. he hated it. And the fact his housewarden is so happy go lucky to him too. Makes his blood boil!!
Jamil truly believed that no one would feel his pain, his struggles.. because everyone sees Kalim "success" before anything!
You and Jamil were in the housewarden meeting, well on the outside of the office during the meeting. Jamil had to be there because Kalim and you were there for Crowley...
You both had a quick moment until you asked him hows he been? He lends his head back against the wall and sighs. You laugh at his actions.
"I get that, hehe"
His eye twitched.
"Do you now..?"
"Heh.. I really do. I'm here for Crowley, even tho he's the Headmage. He's like a spoiled brat with responsibility... and HE knowing more about this world, and the work he does for it, more than I do. But nooo... he still gives it to me!"
Jamil stares at you as you vent about your stress and struggles in NRC. He honestly thought that your life is harder than his! How on the seven do you-?
The doors to the office opens and you and jamil both stand up. The other housewardens walked off and kalim ran to jamil, like a parent picking up their kid in kindergarten.
Jamil sighs, seeing kalim's face makes him exhausting... he quickly looks at you, not turning his head to not make it obvious. You were walking into Crowley's office as he hands you a big stack of papers. He practically saw the light in your eyes fade... he HAS to do something.. but what?
A few days past and he just watched you get more exhausted. The more he watches you the more his feelings for you grows. And the more he watched you get degraded the more he wants to set the world on fire for you..
You couldn't hold a conversation as long as you use to now! What is Crowley making you do?
His hand balled into fist. Then he get an idea.. he's always wanted to do this but never thought about it, there will be come changes to the plan with you in it but it could work!
It was in the evening and he stopped by the Ramshackle dorm. With shaking hands he knocked. He can't believe he's gonna do it.
You answer and he quick took out a cloth from his pocket and covered your mouth. Your struggles were pointless with his strength and your muffled screams wasn't going to be heard by anyone since you practically lived in the middle of nowhere. You went limp and he smile grew.
You woke up, chained, gaged, and blindfolded. You didn't know where you were you were so scared.. but you hear foot steps...
"Good morning, my little desert flower~ im sorry I had to contain you like this, I can't risk anymore seeing you. But once we leave the Isle of Sages, ill let you see."

Lilia
Lilia has been watching you since that first day you came here. How much chaos your presence cause, not including Grims presence, was amazing.
He'd be lying if he said he didn't feel something for you after that first day.
Whenever you're doing anything, he watches. And if hes busy, he has his bats watch you instead. They'll report any and everything about you. Including the dark circles appear under your eyes.
To say he was a little pissed... was an understandment. How dare the Crow hurt someone he cared for..
Lilia had half a mind to just get rid of Crowley with a big display of his remand.. but his kids will be scar so probably not.
He'd would think about if for a bit and told himself, why not just take you to live in Briar Valley? You could live there and he'd support you and care for you. You have a caring personal type with how much you take care of those first years.
You'll make a perfect parent...
Lilia stopped by Ramshackle dorm for a "surprised visit". You thought his strange behavior was just lilia being a strange guy? Meanwhile lilia felt like he was young again when he's with you. He felt shy and anxious. He was all fidgety and not making 100% eye contact with you.
Oh by the seven, you stir something within him and its not unwelcomed.
"Lilia? I don't mean to be rude but.. umm... why are you here..? You kinda came at a bad time.. Crowley has some paper work he wants me to fill out for him.."
Lilia fidgeting stop and if you had his super hear, you'd hear him grit his teeth for a moment.
He flips around suddenly and gets a unsettling smile.
"I came because I just remembered a old story and I wanted to tell someone before it slips my mind!"
You stared at Lilia but nodded for him to continue.
"Do you remember when I told you about the story of the Thorn Fairy? And how she put a curse on this cute little human~?"
With every word he spoke, he got closer to you.. you tried to make some distance but it quickly was put to a halt when lilia grabbed your arm.
"L-ilia.. You're hurting me.."
You tried to pull away but nothing can compete with Lilia's strength.
"Did I also tell you that with skill and focus, a powerful mage, can change the effect of such a powerful spell~?"
You're particularly trembling at this point. He got up really close to you and he shows you a small sewing needle.
"I promise, it won't be too long. Just long enough for everyone to stop looking for you~"
{I didn’t give Lilia an art piece because I drew something similar already}

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, the start of everything.
Chapter one.
Tumblr media
Followed by a yawn, your eyes opened.
It took you some time to understand where you were since your mind still felt a bit blurry from the crazy dream you just had.
You tried very hard to hang on to the very last bits of memories from the dream you had. It was wildly different from your life and felt pretty long. Long as a whole life. In fact, you felt like you hadn't even slept at all and was still tired because of that.
It felt a bit strange not hearing birds after waking up and opening the window of your dorm room. Of course, you knew there were no small birds around Skyloft the same way there were in your dream, but still, it seemed like a little bit of your dream self had rubbed off on you.
You let out a bigger yawn as you stretched and went towards your dresser to pull some more appropriate clothes over your body. You were about to choose your normal comfortable everyday attire when you remembered that there was supposed to be that one competition thing today, you didn't even remember all the details about it, barely even the name in fact, but you still knew it was supposedly important enough for you to at least make an effort to wear something nicer, right?
Okay, maybe not nicer, but at least more fit for flying, after all, it would be a competition in the sky, and knowing Groose and his goons, they'd definitely try and pull tricks on you.
Some minutes later, you were at the main hall and on your way to go outside. Link should still be sleeping, if you knew him enough, and if you knew Zelda enough, she should be waking him up, like always. You were surprised she didn't wake you up too, but you guessed it made sense, since you were awake before normal today. It was still very early, judging by the quiet atmosphere inside the academy.
You didn't think too much on it as you went outside, choosing to skip breakfast today, it was still way too early, and despite your hunger there was this feeling something would go wrong today, maybe it was just anxiety, but you really didn't want to risk throwing up while on the competition.
Although you did find it weird that you were so hungry, it was almost like you had skipped dinner or something.
While you were walking outside you found your instructor Owlan, you didn't necessarily want to start a conversation with him, it was too early for your brain to even work, but he caught sight of you and smiled, nodding at you.
“I see you woke up early today. Planning to get some training done for the Wing Ceremony race?” He asked, sounding almost proud, despite being surprised. You didn't have the heart to tell him that wasn't even on your mind.
“Oh… Yeah, uh, the ceremony that, uh… Training, yes.” Not even you understood what you had just uttered, having stuttered so much that by now “stumbling over your words” wasn't even near the best way to explain what you had just done. Your diction already wasn't quite the best in normal conditions, and caught off guard like that, lying to top it off, there was no way it could get any better than that. At the end, you just gave up.
Owlan seemed to take note of that too, the way you stuttered sounded suspiciously the same as when he caught you dozing off during his classes, and asked you a random question on purpose.
The man shook his head, chuckling to himself.
“You didn't even know that the Wing Ceremony race would be today, did you?”
“Of course I knew! You just caught me completely off guard, is all.” You replied, defensive.
“I'm starting to believe you don't even know what the Ceremony is about.” He continued.
“I just woke up, man. Give me a break.”
Before he could further scold you, or lecture you about the ceremony for the 100th time, Zelda's blue Loftwing came flying around the corner, clearly going towards your dorm's window and Link's as well, since your dorms were almost side by side at the academy. You supposed Zelda had asked him to wake the both of you up.
“Was that Zelda’s Loftwing just now? I thought I saw two letters in it's beak, I wonder what they say.” He mused, bringing a hand up to his chin while looking the way the Loftwing had gone.
You noticed Owlan seemed to have been just as distracted by the Loftwing as you, so you decided to use said distraction to quickly and silently come back inside from where you had left, knowing he'd notice you if you tried to leave the academy.
“Yeah, right? I'm gonna find out! See you later instructor!” You did just that, slipping away away from him.
Once back inside the building, you went to your room to see if you were right on your hunch, and one of Zelda’s letters was directed to you.
And seeing the letter on the ground upon entering your room, you knew you were right.
Your guess is that she sent the same thing, or almost the same thing, to both you and Link, so both letters said to come meet her at the Goddess statue. You swore that the girl must not know any other place in Skyloft, since it was the only place she ever wanted to hang out all of the time.
Going back to the hall and on your way to the other big double doors on the top floor of the building, not wanting to run into Instructor Owlan again, you ended up caving in to your hunger and stopping by the kitchen to at least get an apple to keep your energy. You could get a better meal later, but for now, fruit would have to suffice.
Eventually, you found your way out of the building and ran into yet another instructor of yours, hearing him calling your name as soon as you stepped out.
“I see you woke up early today too! Did you and Link plan to train together before the ceremony?” Horwell smiled at you.
“Oh, I actually didn't know Link was awake.” You pretended to be surprised, this time you were more awake so you were able to dodge the question with ease.
As if on cue, said boy dropped from the roof right besides you, catching you off guard for the second time that day, yet earning a smile and words of gratitude from your instructor, as Link handed him the Remlit he was holding.
Not long after that, Link tugged you away, towards the Goddess statue.
“So you just assume Zelda also invited me over to the statue?” You lifted an eyebrow at the blond, who was still holding your wrist as you both walked towards the stairs that led to the platform the huge statue stood proudly on.
“Of course, am I wrong in assuming that?” He glanced back to smile at you.
“Not really.” You smiled back, shaking your head.
He was right in assuming, after all, Link, Zelda and you were an inseparable trio, you were always together, never separated, ever.
As you guys walked up the stairs, Link didn't seem intent on letting the silence last for long, despite his usual quiet demeanor. It was almost like he was bothered by something, his behavior hinting at that.
The hint was faint. It could even be difficult for you to pick up on, that was, if you didn't know Link for as long as you did.
“You look different today. Did you dress up for the Ceremony?” Link seemed to have been looking at your outfit, taking note of your different clothes with that same soft glint in his eyes he that he always seemed to have when looking at you.
Since he mentioned it, you also started noticing that he clearly didn't have the same thought process you had when getting up, since he didn't even bother to change out of his sleeping cl/othes. Sometimes you even thought he didn't have any other clothes, save for the academy uniform, since he always wore the same outfit every single day.
“You didn't?” Believing he was attempting to tease you, you quipped back quickly, turning his own teasing back at him, or so you thought. Not at all aware that thefamiliar sparkle in his eyes wasn't teasing but rather something else.
Link began laughing when he heard your response, and so you had to shush him when you heard the familiar tune of Zelda's harp alongside with her singing. It didn't take too long for Link to turn as quiet as you when his ears finally picked up on the sound, stopping the banter to listen to the familiar song
Zelda stopped the song once she noticed the both of you, smiling warmly at the sight. By that time, you guys were already less than 10 feet away from her.
“Good morning, you guys!”
Tumblr media
Notes: I actually finished this four days ago and forgot to post it lmao
Anyways, Zelda might become a love interest.
Also, I've been thinking about Loftwing colors a lot, and I'll probably go after some unofficial, fan headcannons to choose the color of MC's Loftwing, so that we can pretend they are rare like Crimson (not as rare, but at least not one I see all of the time when playing the game)

Inflation prices
Hosted Games is going to raise the price of all of their games on January 19th — it's been years, but it seems inflation has caught up with them. This won't affect newer releases much, like the Rose, but it may have a pretty substantial price increase in some of the older titles. 
The Golden Rose will go up 15% percent — so if you want to buy it, now's the time to do it! Outside of Steam sales, it'll never be this low price again.
However, some old gems will have bigger price changes, and I wanted to take this opportunity to shine some light on a few of my old favorite HG games. If the summaries interest you, give the free demos a try!
(I'll be linking the COG page, where you can find the links to Steam, Google Play, the App Store, and Amazon at the bottom of the screen).
Tin Star (50% price increase) — Step into the shoes of a US marshal in the old, wild west. It's a very big game, full of hard decisions and a great cast of characters (Preston, you cocky bastard, I love you). You can be a terrible person, a saint, or anything in between. 
Zombie Exodus (60% increase) — Try to survive a zombie apocalypse. There are dangerous missions to navigate, complicated power dynamics between survivors, and, of course, friends and lovers to remind you what it is you're fighting for. This is an old game, but it was one of the first IFs I read, and to this day the story and characters hold a special place in my heart. 
Zombie Exodus: Safe Haven (40%) — This one isn't really an old game, but I want to include it since the price increase is still substantial and, if you enjoy the first ZE, you will LOVE this. The author took everything from the first game and made it better. You can see how much he has improved. From customization (it's mind-blowing), to relationships, to writing atmospheres - I was legitimately scared in some parts! Plus, the different prologues are so good and... just try it! I adore this game so much. 
Way Walkers: University (40%) — Play as a student in a prestigious magic school. The magic system is super interesting, as is the world at large. But, by far, the best thing about this game and its sequel are the characters. It has one of my favorite ROs in any IF games, Semryu, and the way your friendship develops into a tentative romance is so well done. There's also mystery and tension, and I cannot wait for Book 3! 
Double/Cross (60%) — Okay, I'll admit: I don't remember a lot about this game. It's been years since I read it, but I do remember, however, really liking it! You work as a bodyguard for the richest man in England, and not everything is as it seems. I like it because it subverts your expectations, and when I got my "happy ending" I... did not feel happy at all. It's really interesting and not very long, so I encourage everyone to give it a try!
So, You're Possessed! (50%) — Oh, how to explain this game? You start as a pizza delivery person, and then you meet a demon and your life is thrown upside down. It's been years since I've played it but it has always remained a special little gem. I don't want to spoil the story too much, so just give it a try!
Evertree Inn (40%) — Again, not exactly old, but I think the price increase warrants it on the list. I also think most of you are familiar with the game and its sequels, but I want to mention it anyway. Solve a mystery in a secluded tavern and watch out for the murderer! You can play as a number of fantasy races — dwarf, elf, etc— and interact with a cast of colorful characters. It's just such a fun game, and it leads to a great adventure in the sequel. 
Fallen Hero: Rebirth (40%) — Okay, okay, I know. You all have the game already plus, it isn't technically "old". Well, may this serve as an announcement that Fallen Hero is about to get 40% more expensive, and if by some chance some of you haven't played it yet, you should absolutely do so now. The sequel is coming, and it's held as one of the best IFs ever published. A reputation that, in my opinion, is more than deserved. 
Happy reading! I hope you find at least one game that'll bring you joy.♡

osoaini angel killer au synopsis kinda (an idea that’s prob finished i just typed smth up)
beta ver. To kinda understand. babys first🤫
Okay so we know how all of the matsus r in disguise as priests at ze chapel. So aini is kinda the same but she is well aware of oso being a demon like ewwwww his vibe ..disgusting creature (we r the same). She’s demon in this but more like a fallen Angel, she didn’t choose this life but she’s learned to live with it sadly. She wishes she can be “pure” again but that life is behind her now. So she spends her time being a priest as well and holding extreme resentment to oso bc it was kinda his fault she’s fallen. Like she hearts her big powers but hates the fact that he’s stripped aini of any access to her world ever again. She misses her life. She wants oso’s head, for everything that he has done, this is all his fault…though she has some faults too. But she dresses in pure white robes to cope, being the “kind soul” to ppl she looks at directly but she isn’t like that at all 💔. She knows this isn’t her, she’s in pain and sorrow every day bc of him.
emotional ver. u can tell i had mental pains
ok so like a long time ago (knowing how mythic beings age way differently than humans) aini and oso knew each other and oso was a demon in disguise (a shame ik) but he was an angel like aini. The were teens at the time, but were very close. Aini saw him as an equal, someone she could trust…that was a big mistake though. Aini was more way more purehearted back then and had let her guard down too much. She told one too many secrets to oso and since he was a demon in disguise, he used that to his advantage (though he felt extreme guilt, but it was his duty as a demon to get rid of all angels) He pulled a stunt that resulted in the death of an angel…and put the blame on aini. She was so confused and betrayed, she trusted him! How could he just go and turn on her back like that?! He’s an angel…wait..no…angels don’t kill other angels. She stared at him, her innocence wilting away as she saw his tail and horns. She felt her heart sank as she stood amongst the council who decided her fate. As unusual as these circumstances were, they believed that she was keeping osomatsu’s true self a secret and were to be banished with him. Aini cried and begged for mercy, but no avail. A punishment this harsh warranted no eyes to see, she was immediately shunned and sent to the depths of the underworld. With him. She never felt this sort of pain before…she looked at her wings…they were bloody and burning. Damnation? Her halo still stood as a reminder of what she once was, but it was blackened. Aini bit her tounge hard enough to draw blood and immediately started looking for osomatsu. This was his fault. All his fault. Where did he go???? This is hell, figuratively and literally. Aini would spend many, many, many years searching for him. Those years took her deity status away and replaced it with the demon one she resented…but must embrace of course. At least I’m strong…she would tell herself with tears. I’m so alone… She ends up becoming a priest, a pure one…to feel what she once felt those hundreds of years ago. Then one day, she sees a priest who looked eerily similar to her old friend. Aini has heard stories of a demon named Lucifer and always wanted to fight him head on, but she had no idea it was osomatsu until she saw him once more. This will finally be her chance to get revenge, but she sees the remorse in his eyes…he knows that’s aini, the one who was the closest to him. Oh how his heart pained every time he was near her. This was your fault y’know. Maybe they’ll rekindle, but not after a well deserved confrontation.

What do you think would happen if Lestat and Edward's lives were switched? Like, say they're switched, but Lestat-as-Edward's life is the same as canon-Edward's up until he's turned, and then Lestat-as-Edward's personality and temperament and everything have free rein, and vice versa. Just so they get to the same places. I mean, Edward would probably be as woe-is-me and delusional as ever (especially since The Vampire Chronicles vampires really ARE true creatures of the night), but I'm really curious how Lestat would fare with Carlisle, and what Carlisle would think of him. Do you think he'd eventually leave and pursue a hedonistic lifestyle? Where do you see him going?
The beautiful thing is it actually doesn't matter.
(Note, we're going off the novels here, as I haven't seen enough of the recent show to know what they've done with Lestat's backstory).
Lestat is Edward
Edward was turned because Elizabeth prompted Carlisle, Edward hadn't really known Carlisle before that point or had a relationship with him. As it was, Lestat as a human wasn't the full-on hedonist he becomes as a vampire. Oh, he was vivacious and charming and knew how to have a good time and get around (which was what got him turned in the first place) but he wasn't Lord Henry yet.
So, Lestat could very easily have been Elizabeth's somewhat rebellious partying teenage son who knows that everything's going to be fine and he's going to get into university and probably become a stuffy boring lawyer.
So, Carlisle turns himself a stranger and.. oh no...
Well Lestat really enjoys how hot Carlisle is, he's super hot, and that's super cool however it's clear that Carlisle is a very strict person who doesn't know how to have fun.
This is before Alice, so while there's money it's not a hideous amount of money and Lestat was probably wealthier while human. You have Carlisle telling Lestat not to eat the delicious smelling people who are all dying of influenza anyway and that we should eat animals and be miserable like monks. And oh, yes, there are no women/men who will bang Lestat around either.
"Congratulations, Lestat, you're a monk!"
Lestat at first somewhat jokingly, but very seriously, tries to convince Carlisle to live a little. "What if we only eat the bad people, Carlisle?" But it slowly becomes clear to the pair that this just isn't working.
Either Lestat ends up turning a person to hang out with him/gang up on Carlisle and to also fuck with Carlisle. "See, Carlisle, I turned this other hot person who does fuck me and eats people with me!" and or Lestat ends up running away.
Probably both.
Carlisle doesn't turn the rest of the Cullens.
Edward is Lestat
It's a little more iffy that Edward would get turned in Lestat's place but not impossible. What happens with Lestat is that he keeps trying and failing to run away from home and eventually gets out and goes to be an actor in Paris. There, being young and hot and very charismatic, he attracts the attention of a vampire who turns him who then immediately commits suicide and Lestat gets all ze money (which he then squanders which is in part why he later turns Louis because moniezzzz and hot meeeeen).
But Edward is also young and hot and as a human was likely charismatic (he was as a vampire, at times, he can be very charming he's just also a bit manic and a bit... Edward when he's not trying).
So, let's say Edward gets turned against his will into a vampire in Paris, after having left his extremely shitty family (and his beautiful wonderful mother) and finds himself heir to an immense fortune.
Edward likely goes through a phase of deep self-hatred, as you note, where he's an extremely Catholic demon (Lestat having come from a very Catholic very French family). We have two paths for Edward, either he kills himself very early (easy to do as an Anne Rice vampire as you just remain out in the sun) or else he succumbs to hedonism as he did in canon briefly, justifying it as the murder of villainous people the world is better without.
Could go either way, as it'd be easy for Edward to kill himself early on impulse but we do know that he was willing to justify himself for pleasure and that this could easily become a slippery slope for him when he didn't have an in universe Carlisle to go back to.
Edward would start with those deemed evil doers but slowly slip into those he simply finds distasteful and then eventually those he finds tasty.

1024UB CHAPTER TEN: I NEED TO CHANGE MY PASSWORD
Tumblr media
word count: 1.6k
table of contents ♤ previous chapter ♤ next chapter
Tumblr media
Sometimes, San wondered how it was humanly possible for Wooyoung to go to the same college as the group. Wooyoung had called him that morning asking San to swing by the lab with a pair of clothes because he had another lab accident.
“Why don’t you ask Yeosang to grab your clothes? You live with him, don’t you?” San complained.
“He’s in the middle of a midterm,” Wooyoung explained over the phone.
“Then wait until he’s done!”
“I don’t have the patience for that! Please just bring me some clothes, I’m tired of smelling like a burnt chicken nugget.”
Reluctantly, San grabbed (aesthetically pleasing) random clothes from Wooyoung’s apartment and got down to his lab. Thankfully, he was done experimenting for the day, so after Wooyoung got cleaned up, they both went to Ze Cafe despite the fact that it was Wooyoung’s day off from work. At least he didn’t hate his job and the group liked hanging out at the cafe, otherwise San was sure he would be absolutely miserable hanging out there.
“Oh, how did that exam end up going for you?” San asked as they sat with their drinks.
“The written portion went great! Really saved my overall grade from the exam.”
“The lab went that bad, huh?”
“Horrible. I almost burnt my eyebrows off.”
“I thought you were just measuring levels of whatever chemical it was. How did you manage to fuck that up, too?” Hongjoong leaned over the counter and put in his two cents, seeing as the two boys sat closer to the coffee bar.
“Things happen, okay?” Wooyoung sighed.
“You’re really special, you know that?” San told the boy.
“Shut up,” Wooyoung frowned and immediately tried to change the subject. “How did that second paper turn out?”
“I got a pretty good grade. Seonghwa didn’t though, so don’t bring it up to him. It’s a sore spot.”
“I don’t get how out of the three of you, someone always does a horrible job. Don’t you all study together like all the time?” Hongjoong interjected again.
“Things happen, okay?” San used Wooyoung’s excuse. “At least I did well this time, that’s all I really care about.”
“Damn, that’s ruthless,” Wooyoung laughed.
“There’s only so many ways we can help each other. At the end, it’s still a free for all,” San shrugged and took a knowing sip of his coffee before getting up. “Hey, I’ll be right back— gotta go to the bathroom.”
He left for the bathroom, did his business, followed hygienic practices by washing his hands with soap for more than twenty seconds, and returned. Wooyoung was staring intently at his phone— wait, that’s not his phone… Wooyoung was staring at San’s phone? As he got closer to the table, he saw Wooyoung scramble to put San’s back from where he found it. He tried to be subtle and quiet, only to nearly knock over their drinks, making way more noise.
“What are you doing?” San asked as he returned to the table.
“Your phone kept vibrating, and I thought it was a call from your mom, so I wanted to pick up and say hi, but then I saw that Gyu was actually texting you. She sent you like five messages, so I unlocked your phone to see what she sent,” Wooyoung rambled.
“Okay, so? Why did you read it?”
“She texted you so many times, but she hasn’t opened a single one of my messages,” Wooyoung pouted. “I swear I don’t know what she sent. I didn’t get that far.”
“Maybe she’s just waiting until she can respond to your messages properly, I don’t know,” San kept trying to offer excuses— he still hadn’t seen the texts from Gyuri, but he wanted to take preemptive measures in case it was something more than surface level.
“I guess…”
Now San needed to know what she sent him. He checked the messages from her as casually as he possibly could.
PRIVATE MESSAGE: gyuday
gyuday: hey gyuday: remember that one anime? gyuday: a new ep just dropped gyuday: let’s watch gyuday: right now.
“She just wants to watch anime, calm down,” San shook his head disapprovingly at Wooyoung.
“Why you? Why not Seonghwa? He’s her best friend,” Wooyoung pressed.
“Because we started the show together.”
“Why’d she watch it with you? Why not Hwa or Iseul?”
“We were talking about the new season the other day and randomly decided to watch it.”
“Jesus, Woo, why are you so goddamn curious?” Hongjoong, thankfully, interjected.
“Yeah, why do you have so many fucking questions? San added.
Wooyoung broke into raucous laughter, his hand slapping the table as he laughed harder. “Man, you should see the look on your face! I was just messing with you.”
Next thing he knew, San flicked Wooyoung’s forehead, causing the obnoxious boy to hold his forehead in pain, his laughter turning into cries; now Hongjoong was roaring laughing. San got up and left the shop, feeling as though he lost ten years of his life. He didn’t have time to ponder it, though, because he could feel the urgency in Gyuri’s texts and knew he had to go over immediately.
He got back to 1024UB and b-lined straight to Gyuri’s apartment, knowing that she’d be there. Before he could even enter the passcode, the door opened. Gyuri grabbed him by the collar and pulled him into the apartment, the door slamming shut as she aggressively made out with San. There were many questions in his mind at that moment, but there was only one he really needed the answer to: why was she crying?
“Hey, wait, what’s wrong?” he asked after managing to pull away from her gently.
She pursed her lips and looked down at the ground, more tears slipping out of her eyes. Now San really wanted to know what was going on. She usually only sent him one text— not five. Why did she desperately need to see him? Gyuri, still not uttering a word, led San to the couch. She offered him a bottle of soju, which he declined because he wanted to know what was going on first.
After eons of silence, Gyuri spoke, her voice extremely small, “Seonghwa is seeing someone.”
San’s jaw dropped— that was not what he was expecting to hear. He honestly thought that Gyuri was going to tell him she was pregnant or something, which definitely sounds much worse than the Seonghwa thing, but he was still shocked nonetheless. He only managed to get his jaw to close when he grabbed the soju bottle Gyuri previously offered and chugged however much he could in that moment.
“Okay, uh, what the fuck?!”
“Yeah.”
“Actually?!”
“Yeah.”
“Really?!”
“Yeah.”
San cleared his throat and tried searching for more words to convey the thoughts in his head. He took another swig from the soju bottle. “We literally see him all the time, and he’s always studying! How the fuck did meet someone?”
“That’s what I want to know, too.”
“Does anyone else know?”
“No.”
Gyuri dried her tears and picked up another soju bottle from the coffee table. “You know, he actually told me about her a couple nights ago.”
“Why didn’t you say anything sooner, then?”
“I… I don’t remember much of that night. After he told me about her, I came home and drank literally all the alcohol in the apartment. I really thought I imagined what he told me, but then this morning, he asked me to come to the library, and he introduced her to me…”
“Fuck…”
“Why the fuck did he tell me first? I didn’t want to know this shit!”
“You’re his best friend, so it makes sense,” San sighed.
“Some fucking best friend he is…” Gyuri muttered.
As Gyuri drank more alcohol, San looked at the coffee table— there were at least six empty bottles in the apartment at that moment, which was extremely alarming given that it was only two in the afternoon. He snatched the bottle from her, trying to get her to ease up on the alcohol. She glared at him and tried to reclaim the bottle, but San was far enough from her to not be able to reach from where she was; yet, she persisted, and she tried to pin San on the couch. He put the bottle down on the ground and ended up pinning her instead to try and deter her from drinking more.
“If you keep drinking like this, then the toilet will become your best friend.”
“I can hold my alcohol—”
“I know you can, but this isn’t the solution, Gyuri. At least, it’s not the right solution.”
Gyuri sighed and covered her face with her hands while deeply sighing. Her sigh turned into a groan of anger, and her hands moved from her face to her hair. San was still on top of her at that point, and as he watched the girl writhe in anger, he felt something sharp in his heart. Instinctually, he brought his lips to hers and kissed her softly. The kiss ended shortly after and they looked at each other. Gyuri looked shocked, but at least she wasn’t making the same painful face as before.
“San…”
“This might not be the best solution either… but—”
San’s words were cut off when Gyuri pulled him in by his collar and kissed him. It was like she was trying to lose herself in the kiss and not think about anything. San leaned further into her, their kisses getting a little deeper. He could still feel a couple tears slip out of her eyes. He pushed himself up again, interrupting their chain of kisses.
“Are you sure you want to do this?” he asked while wiping some of the stray tears.
“Yes.”
He nodded and pulled off his shirt before pinning her down again. Her arms wrapped around his neck and brought him further into her, the two of them losing themselves in each other as they spent the restless afternoon together.

hey. heyehyhey. remember that talk we had about Leper's broken sword and the symbolism of how he broke and all that
well, it gets BETTER/WORSE. and all the more interesting to think about! Wanna know what he says in DD2 when given a whetstone, to sharpen his broken blade?
Tumblr media
like, on its surface, it seems simple: he's just projecting and using it as a way to mourn the loss of his looks due to the onset of his disease, right?
Except! (as we talked about): his sword breaking had nothing to do with his looks!(1)
Tumblr media
after all, here he is, with his full blade in hand right before the deed that ended with both of them broken: already in his leper gear at this point, with all the symbolic weight that has. (plus just what it could mean in the mundane narrative sense, if we put all our reality warping headcanons aside for just a second, lol) he likely still considered blade still 'handsome', then, as it hasn't shattered yet, no? (and his word choice when talking about it is interesting, too - his blade didn't just break, it shattered. for all that they're synonyms, one word carries a lot more violent and explosive imagery than the other, doesn't it? that this is the word he comes up with when thinking about this moment... it has a lot of interesting implications for how he looks back on it. plus, using it as a way to describe the outcome of his actions here, even if only partially, brings some level of... unintentionality to the consequences, I suppose? i dunno the best way to phrase it, but, like: when it comes to how we use the word in the English language, people knowingly break things all time, whether metaphorically or literally; people break locks to get access to things/places otherwise unavailable to them; "you have to break a few eggs to make an omelet"; ending a romantic relationship with someone is called a breakup, etc. for all that the term implies some level of damage, it's often a controlled use of damage, or something that can be fixed back up later with few repercussions. it's not too dire or drastic for something to end up broken, I guess is what I'm getting at.
For something to have shattered, though? that's almost always implies that the damage wasn't a knowing/intended consequence. At the very least that they did more damage than intended; one would very rarely go out of their way to shatter someone's heart during a break up; if someone shatters a mirror due to punching it, they likely weren't thinking rationally when trying to rid of their reflection; a kid shattering a house's window is gonna get in big trouble if found out, whether that was their goal or not. And that's also part of it - if a person did expect they'd shatter something with their actions, it ascribes to them a level of cruelty and callousness that the word 'break' just doesn't come with as subtextual baggage.
all of which is to say; while the Leper may or may not have expected to come out of his own purge broken, it would have been FAR more self-destructive if he went in expecting it to be shattered by the end. As such, it's very hard for me to think the level of self-damage done was intentional on his part. BUT ANYWAYS. back to the actual topic of this ask xD) What exactly was it that he thought was 'handsome' about his symbolic self before this, as compared to after? Was it the full weight, even as necessary as he thought it was, of killing his own subjects in cold bloo,d and thus no longer being able to truthfully say he'd never knowingly brought harm to those from his kingdom? Was it some level of happiness or enjoyment he got out of the action, thinking such a thing made him monstrous or sadistic?
Was it the calculated cruelty he was able to act with, meaning he at least partially abandoned any beliefs he may have had in kindness and empathy in interacting with others?
However you interpret such a thought process, his interactions with Jester would likely be a huge fucking wake-up call. because, let's be real, the fool would feel less than zero compunctions about calling any and all murder that happens 'sexy', and he'd be joking about it only like. half of the time. if that. xD Though, to be fair, Sarmenti would probably throw around the term 'handsome' less often. Comes a bit too close to sounding sincere, after all, could ruin his reputation as an Unrepentant Silly Asshole if the others picked up on it.
-----
(1)....Though, admittedly, Leper's phrasing in saying he/his blade was "Handsome, once, before it shattered" could just as validly be read as him having lost his handsomeness even before something in him symbolically broke..... But that take is a lot more straightforward in its interpretation, and thus much less fun for me to ruminate on for hours on end. so. ;p
What's your thoughts on all of this, if anything? You agree with any particular interpretation of it, or have an entirely different take? Do you think I'm overanalyzing this too much for DD2, where the reality warping nature of the setting might make the heroes' takes on themselves less reliable than in DD1? (if so, fair!) Just interested to hear any and all of what's going on in your noggin' after reading this!
Leper has so many layers.... so many parts of both of these games live rent free in my head, but this guy and the fucked-up clown are at the very top.
i personally lean towards the more simple 'musing on his “lost” attractiveness' interpretation. it's clear from DD1 and DD2 that Leper has a deep connection to his blade, probably considering it something of a friend or a kindred spirit. it's been with him through so much!
the term 'shattered', though, i do agree is very evocative and there's an intent to it. Leper (and the writers!) didn't simply say 'broken' for a reason. perhaps he feels he shattered himselfa fine and powerful blade in a moment of rage/weakness/self-defense/fear. it's still usable though, even in this shattered state, so Leper will keep on truckin' until his body inevitably gives out.
when the time comes and he's comfortable showing the others his Shrines, though, Jester will call his retaliation a work of art, with only the thinnest veneer of sarcasm. now there's a man who was in control of his fate! there's a man who did not roll over and die when demanded! there's a man who had the guts to do what needed to be done as soon as possible instead of taking the abuse for years and years and years! i'm sure the other heroes would also take Leper's side and assure him that what he did was right on some level, but Jester's agreement hits a bit different.
here's a funny lil interaction between the two of them i formulated with another friend:
Jester, covered in blood: you still love me right?? 🥺
Leper, for the fifth time that day: yes, i do 😊
--
Leper, changing his bandages: truly i am a wretched thing, a walking corpse... 😔
Jester, kissing his forehead: absolutely not, you're hot as fuck and built like a brick shithouse 😤

Ze~no~nia~
Someone that's not Regret or Chael! Woooooooo!
This time it's...Frey!
Yes. She looks different. That's her adult self but I changed her Zenonia 4 design that better suits the version of her in my AU.
As Celine, she was a pushover. While she has lots of power, she let so many people— the Divine Tribe—trample over her. She let herself become Shaman when its clear she's too young to do so and became the hope of the Dovine Tribe to the point her life just became a routine of praying and praying and praying with no end in sight. To the point she was separated from her brother for 3 whole years.
That changes when Chael comes along. He inspires her to act more for herself. To fight for her believes and what she believed was right and thats evident when she tries to talk to Temir about Chael and Runa's imprisonment.
She makes the decision to live on Earth. I don't know if its from reincarnation or she stole someone's life, I dunno man. She just lives with humans now.
As Frey, she becomes more of a fighter. She's willing to be more upfront and tell others off when they take it too far. She defends Chael, the same way Chael has done for her.
(Don't ask about the timeline. Please don't ask about the timeline I don't know either—)
But she still wasn't able to change fate. She becomes Celine again when she let Regret go, when she let Chael go, knowing for a fact that they won't come back the same.
Some don't even come back alive.
In the aftermath of the Hard Mode Ending, she realizes her inaction became the consequence of Chael's survivors guilt and depression along with Mr Regret's death. So she changes. She learns to use her strength to fight for her own and fight for others, the same way Luxferre had done, the same way Chael and Runa had done.
Frey learns to fight for hope, not just give it or just say false promises. This time she has a drive. A will to fight for that hope to come true.
She had been training with Mr Regret after Chael disappeared. She begged him to train her and in worry of the same thing happening to Frey, Regret agrees.
Even with him gone, Frey continues training and when Chael is enlisted to help Deva Castle after Iris and Outer Iris literally burns, she joins. Both as a medic and a fighter.
When Chael tries to convince her to not join the frontlines, she tells him that she's doing this because she wants to. She wants to be by his side to help him fight for everyone. And Chael, knowing Frey, backs down and lets her. Still watching over of course but Frey does the same anyway even when Chael becomes the 1st Commander of the Royal Guard.
She trains under Ecne who teaches her how to use a gun, becoming a soldier in the skies. She fights the Devil Tribe that tries to get the humans on the ground and becomes a healer when there's time.
Frey trains long and hard and eventually she becomes the commander of the air force with some of the Divine Tribe helping the humans fight the Devil Tribe.
Oh yeah and they kinda had a civil war before that. The Divine Tribe—especially the ones from Midgard—did not want to work with humans at all. But Chael and Frey deal with it. Frey telling them all of the human's achievements like defeating fucking Ladon. Chael just politely begs them to get their shit together so they can fight the Devil Tribe and end this grueling war.
I just wanted Frey to be more active as a character, as support sure, but still actively fighting.

It's Been A While, Taiwan BLs
I haven't enjoyed a Taiwan BL drama as much as I did with Kiseki in so long. Seriously, this drama scratched the itch that has been around for a very long time. The last time I wholeheartedly loved a Taiwan BL drama was when I watched History3: Trapped, so you can imagine how long that metaphorical itch has been around. Hell, I've rewatched Trapped multiple times just because no Taiwan BL came close to how Trapped made me feel.
Anyhow, lets get on with Kiseki. I might have enjoyed it and maybe I love it, but it is not a perfectly well-done drama. If Kiseki had been given more episodes, or full-length episodes, the flow of the plot could have been much better and smoother. There were times when I thought the drama felt like it was rushing through key plotlines. For example, the whole Aidi going into jail to protect Zongyi from being attacked again and that event that happened right before Aidi went in, it could have had more light shone on it. Additionally, I had hoped for at least one more episode of angst and separation with both couples after the time jump. Of course, because Kiseki was only given 13 30-minutes episodes, I will applaud the writer(s) for how the story played out. It was not perfect but it was not unacceptably bad either.
Moving on to the characters themselves. I will honest here, I decided to follow the release of each episode weekly for Aidi and Chenyi. Going into this drama, I always knew the second lead couple was going to be my favourite. However, what surprised me was how invested I was with Zerui and Zongyi too. I liked the way their relationship developed before the time jump. It was after the time jump that the vibe fell off a little. That part felt rushed, even though it was beautiful, it was rushed. Likewise, I was enjoying the pining and undiscovered feelings between Aidi and Chenyi. Despite absolutely loving this couple, I thought the way the writer(s) wrote Chenyi's feelings for his adoptive father/boss and Aidi was weak. We should have been allowed to see Chenyi's struggle with his feelings. Also, I didn't like how Chenyi explained the difference in what he felt for his adoptive father/boss and Aidi, it was as if the writing became lazy near the end.
Like I said, if only Kiseki was given more time or at least more episodes. Many problems I had with this drama was tied to the lack of development due to the shortage of time. Regardless, the plot holes were not obvious or huge so the show still went on seamlessly.
2023 seem to be the year for Taiwan productions and I am living for it.
Rating: ★★★★☆ (4.5/5)
P.S.: So many cameos and I couldn't get any History3: Trapped ones? This might be my roman empire.
More production(s) from Taiwan here: Marry My Dead Body (關於我和鬼變成家人的那件事) | Oh No! Here Comes Trouble (不良執念清除師) |

Till the End of the Moon, ep 27
We already knew that he was over the edge because there is no way Tantai Jin would have agreed to give his heart’s blood without knowing what it is for. But the chance to save Ye Xiwu, keep her alive and further tie her to him forever is the only thing that he wants. He’s going to regret not caring what the blood is for.
Also, why does the guy need/want his blood and what divination did he see??
Li Susu wakes up in the Barren Abyss and finally admits that she feels guilty but learns from Ji Ze that she and Tantai Jin were always forever doomed. That nothing she did was going to change what was meant to be. The dream life was also more important than she realized.
Like Min Ye, Susu will have to replace Tantai Jin’s Evil Bone™ with Divine Essence. However, she have to use the World Overturning Jade to do so, which will punish her for using it.
Which makes me wonder - if this is something she could have done in the first place instead of the spikes? Probably not.
Tantai Jin and Susu - both them just in pain, spitting up blood. They are not going to last long, regardless of the bracelets.
The advisors even notice Tantai Jin’s health, which is not good for him as the Emperor.
Now he’s going off to fight a war against 10,000 puppet soldiers, poison miasma and Tanani Minglang which he is in no condition to do.
The punishment thunder, puppet soldiers, Tanai Minglang and Susu and Tantai Jin are all coming together at the same time so I’m guessing the next couple of episodes will be big.
I loved the fight between Fu Yu and Pian Ran, in particular because Fu Yu basically disregarded her and Pian Ran destroyed her.
Not Pian Ran losing her loved one again. That broke my heart for her. She just got her love threads back only to have Ye Qingyu jump in front of an arrow to save her. Then she sacrificed her essence and life to save him. OMG they are almost as tragic as Tantai Jin and Susu but in a less dysfunctional, unhinged way.

(CW: direct references to in-universe slavery)
-------
From the diary of Knocks-on-Wood, Caravan Drover to Vyra Demnevanni: Midnight. 20th, First Seed. 1E 655. Trade Job: Seventy-Two. Route: Tel Enora -> Kemel-Ze. Progress: 34km. Wind: North-West, 309°. Weather: light ash. Lunch: Jellied nix-eels and mushroom assortment (Kemel-Ze style), with shalk egg. Progress Report: Conditions calm. No sickness. Decent spirits amongst the crew – all gotten paid on time. Caravan made good progress despite ash. Cargo all accounted for. Vyra did not yell at Drels, or any of the crew today. Ahead of schedule for once. [Scrawled in the margin: She's not as green as she was once. Almost competent now.] Miscellaneous Notes: Breakthrough. Finally, Vyra's talking again.
Had thought I'd fucked it thoroughly. Vyra, being Vyra, the former pride of Kemel-Ze, hadn’t even given me a sideways glance for weeks since she found out.
[Scrawled in the margin: Can't blame her much. What kind of fucked excuse for a father does she have, employing some schmuck to spy on his favourite bastard?]
Had expected I’d have to talk sense into her, but she approached me first. Sat with me at the start of the night watch. I'd told her to get some shut-eye. It would be her turn in four hours, she needed all the sleep she could get.
“You’re on Sydras Demnevanni’s payroll,” she had said in response. First words to me in weeks.
Told her then, bluntly, that she wouldn’t like what she was going to hear.
“This isn’t about what I’d like, Knox—” [Scrawled up in the corner of the page: But she’d end up getting her way in the end, wouldn’t she?] “—You've been on Sydras' payroll. Since the beginning.”
“Vyra,” I’d told her. “Don’t.”
“Don’t you fucking ‘don’t’ me, Knox. You owe me some fucking answers.”
[Scrawled in the margin: Don’t owe her anything asides from what’s on the dotted line.]
“Demnevanni,” she continued. "Does he know about the Tel Mora shitshow from last year?”
Put my head in my hands. [She's like a battering ram when she gets riled up.]
“Answer the question, Knox. Does he know what really happened up en route from Tel Mora? What really happened with that job? Does he or doesn’t he?”
“Vyra, I'm his damned spy, you know the answer—”
“Don’t fuck with me. Does he know about that job? Does he know about Trade Job Fifty-Nine?”
[Should have lied. Should have just fucking lied.]
“No.” It came out so quiet. You could barely hear. “No, Vyra, he doesn’t.”
And she hadn’t expected that. She’d stepped backwards. She looked at me like I was something new.
“You didn't... so does he also know, then, that I now know—?”
“No, Vyra. He also doesn’t know that you now know about…”
“The fact you’re spying on me. That I know you have been spying on me for years. He truly doesn't know? I-- Why?”
Couldn’t bring myself to squeeze out a lie to that one. Couldn’t bring myself to say anything. Vyra might be a half-dwarf heretic who hadn't tried to even like the chimer she now lived among, having left her brass castle, and still, couldn't think of anyone except her damn self – [Scrawled in the margin: Who are you trying to kid, Knox?] – but she'd been wronged, well enough. And when you travel with someone for years, you also learn their tells. And Vyra – she saw straight through mine.
“So… what, Knox, you don't care? You don't fucking care?”
That, I just shrugged. What was left to say?
"I don't. I don't actually give a damn about Sydras Demnevanni."
And that was when she laughed – threw back her head and cackled. Laughed like the whole world had gone mad except her, echoed through the crags.
[Scrawled in the margin: Girl's fucked in the head.]
[Scrawled in the margin, directly underneath: No more than you, Knox.]
“Fuck me, Knox,” she’d told me. “I'd spent the past hundred days wondering if you were somehow loyal to him.”
“Loyal to Demnevanni?”
What had he ever done to deserve loyalty? That old wizard-lord wouldn't dare stand within five feet of a guar, not for his life.
[A note scrawled in the margin: He pays damn well. It’s the easiest damn coin you've made since you left the Marsh. You send a packet of coins home every month, don't you forget it.]
“Don't say it like it's fucking implausible," said Vyra. “I know he's a cunt, but—” Hist be damned, should have seen the grin on her then – Vyra was beaming. “Knox, you should have said. Would have made trusting you a damn sight easier.”
“Didn't know you trusted me one bit, Vee.”
Vyra huffed and crossed her arms.
“Knox, has it ever occurred to you that I have to trust you? The rest of the crew can go back singing up with the tones for all I care but this – this right here? Doesn't work without you. Besides—”
[Scrawled in the margin, somewhere: Think that was a compliment.]
[Scrawled in the margin, somewhere: She's called everyone but you incompetent. Keep your guar steady.]
"Besides what? Where's this going?"
"I want to do more jobs like Fifty-Nine again."
[Scrawled in the margin: Trade Job Fifty Fucking Nine]
“Vyra.”
“Which means I really have to trust you.”
“Vee.”
[Scrawled all along the margin, in rough strokes: Why, in the name of all the damned gods and beasts and things unholy, does Vyra, a bastard merchant who's never given a shit about tearing anyone else down to get what she wants, give a damn about what happens to Telvanni slaves? Is it guilt? Is it something personal? It couldn't be out of a sense of justice – she knows how this world works, she's too damn smart for that. Can't figure it out.]
“Knox, I've thought things through. I think we can minimise the risks—”
“There's no playing safe with that kind of cargo. Telvanni—”
“You think I don't know what the Telvanni do to them?”
[Scrawled, in larger and larger letters: Why does she care? Why does she care so much? What does this mean to you, Vyra?]
“Not so loud,” I snapped.
She dropped her voice to a fierce whisper.
“By all the fucking tones on this fucking plane of existence – Knox – Knox, please—”
“Please what?”
[Scrawled in the margin, somewhere: First or second time Vyra had ever said please in her life, I reckon.]
“Think about it. Just think about it. I – I can't just do the same-in same-out for another five years, pretending like nothing is wrong with this damn world. I'll actually kill someone.”
“Vyra, you can't—”
“Shut up. This will be more fucking important than anything we've ever fucking done in our sorry lives.”
I’d given her a hard look.
[Scrawled up in the corner of the page: What the in the four corners happened, Vyra? What happened in that little clan of yours, that raised you and fed you, where you never wanted for much, that you'd toss yourself out with the nix-hounds?]
[Scrawled up in the corner, directly underneath: Hate it when she's right]
Then I’d sighed.
“Shit, Vyra. You've really thought about the risks of taking on wanted folk as travellers?”
“I know the risks.”
“And when we get caught?”
“I know the risks.”
“And you’ve thought about the rest of us? What getting caught might mean for the likes of us? A Marsh exile, two Ashlander vagabonds, and a half-deaf sewer rat you've made out to be a stableboy—"
“Lyr isn't—”
“—I know she isn't – Let me finish.”
She halted.
“Jade's already got a price on his head out in Hammerfell. I can’t step foot in half the kingdoms of Argonia else they’ll have my head. You know what will happen to us?”
“I’ll take the fall—”
“But they’ll blame us. We're the leftover scraps, the dregs, the scum they've raked off the bottom—”
“You're not scum—”
“—But we're scum to them. And they're the ones that matter. They're the ones with the noose, Vee. Think about that.”
Vyra looked at me like she wanted to tear me apart. But didn't say anything.
Things got real quiet, after that. Didn't have much else to say. Vyra, reckon by the way her hands twitched, she started counting the stars. New moons, plenty of them out.
[Scrawled up in the corner: Know it's her favourite sky. Know she's sentimental for it, despite the fact that she pretends she couldn't give a damn. My theory's that she likes to count to keep it all in check. Always stock-keeping.]
It got comfortable after a while.
[Scrawled all along the margin: If I close my eyes, it’s not too far from the cornerclub days again. Trading stories about old jobs gone wrong and things gone sour like we could have been friends. Back when Demnevanni was still bank-rolling his favourite bastard daughter’s scheme to fleece all the other wizard-lords to Oblivion and back when we spent every coin of his dirty money after pay day on Flin and Wildgrass. We’d pour our hearts and guts out, then head out of town, gaze up at the stars, and smoke in a ditch somewhere. She’d count them, tell me shit about magnetic fields and constellations. Always surprised me that. On the worst days, I forget she’s anything other than a Caravan Master. The damn thing she refuses to call herself. Vyra, call me Vyra, she says— gets short with you otherwise. Like a Caravan Master might.]
She stood up suddenly. Held my gaze.
“I won't go ahead with it unless you’re on board, Knox."
"That's bullshit, Vee."
"No. No it's not." She looked me dead in the eye. “And you're not scum to me, Knox.”
Didn't say anything to that. [Scrawled at the bottom of the page: Hate it when she's right.]. Simply watched her walk off, shrinking from big to small as she moved up towards the horizon, up towards the smoke still billowing from the campfire. Still smouldering. Tried to look away. Looked up instead.
[Scrawled in the margin: Burnt silver, that colour – she'd say the tone, wouldn't she? – where she'd been looking, her patch of stars up in the sky. Pretty. But not much else to note.]
The rest of the watch was uneventful.

[Video ID: Not much is visible, besides the bathroom door. The video was likely taken on a whim, judging by how Hound does not seem like a particularly good videographer. Despite this, the audio is decently clear. The main noise is the sound of a tap running at full force, clearly intended to hide the other noise coming from inside the bathroom. A can be heard inside, coughing and choking on something.
This lasts for an uncomfortably long amount of time, much longer than anyone can be choking without either stopping or passing out. Hound occasionally bangs on the door and yells; at first, the yells are mildly annoyed, but as the choking continues, they increase in their concerned tone, until Hound is threatening to break down the door if whoever is inside doesn't stop hurting A. Throughout it all, the coughing only worsens, eventually seeming like she was coughing for two people at once.
At the threat, the choking stops. The only audible sound is the tap, but that is shut off within seconds. Despite seemingly being done, A does not leave the bathroom just yet, as a tense silence fills the air. It couldn't be dead, or else who would've shut off the tap, right? A - or whoever was in there - is going to have to come out sooner or later. This silence sits for half a minute, Hound's hands growing increasingly shaky as xyr fist hovers over the door to knock. Paw needs to get in, but did he really want whatever was in there to know of hir presence? Then again, they likely already did...
Before Hound fully commits to knocking on the door again, footsteps can be heard. Approaching. Ze takes a few steps back as the door opens.
A looks healthy. A looks uninjured. A looks down at Hound and the camera. A smiles.
"Well? Aren't you going to use the bathroom?", his voice is as hoarse and raspy as it is smooth and composed. It's clear they were choking, but the way that it sounds so... Unbothered would put doubt in that.
Hound's voice is certainly more tense, as fleur exclaims, "Are you okay? You sounded as though you were choking..."
The other Archer laughs. An uncharacteristic laugh. Usually their laughs are rare bursts of energy, unable to be restrained and just as joyous as they are rare. Apollo was never the type to laugh much. But this laugh... It feels off. A quiet chuckle, restrained, low and off-putting. Hound certainly feels unsettled, judging by how the camera slightly jolts. "Oh, I was just choking on a piece of meat. I'm sure you understand."
"You were choking...", Hound tries to ignore how similar the laugh sounded to Giovanni's laugh, voice full of doubt - both of the story and of A -, "... And so you went to the bathroom?"
"I didn't want to cause concern. Seems like I failed..."
"... I... See.", ke doesn't believe that for a second, but has clearly had their attention drawn to something else, "You smell as though you have just walked out of a river."
The sly smile that Apollo's wearing falters. He looked like somebody had just thrown everything off balance - an unexpected question, threatening to break everything. The smile returns before long, however. "I brought my own deodorant... With everything going on, I don't want to smell bad, do I? I decided to apply it there. Didn't want to risk triggering someone's lung conditions."
The suspicion in Hound's voice only grows more apparent, "So... You were choking, and yet, you had the forethought to take your deodorant with you?"
"It was in my pocket.", Apollo's voice grew suddenly more defensive.
"May I see i-", before Hound could finish, A barges past, going to return to the barbeque.
With a bit of mumbling, the video ends as Hound walks into the bathroom.]

Gem forced her to stay in bed for a week.
It was agonizing, staying still for that long, but the wizard refused to compromise.
They did make sure someone was always at her side. When it wasn't Gem, Scott came around, entertaining her with news of the other empires. Fwhip had made a crown, that whoever wore it got to make a rule. At Scotts festival celebrating Xornoths banishment, he revealed the crown, and it turned to a bloodbath.
Jimmy has the crown now, apparently, and everyone has to make a cod sanctuary.
But, Scott figured. The rule probably doesn't apply to those who can't do it. He's not cruel enough to expect Shrub to make one. He added that after the gnome started to shift to get up.
And then when Scott couldn't make it, Pearl came. Admittedly, Pearl coming was one of Shrubs favorite days. She only came once during the week, but when she did, Shrub was able to ask about Katherine.
"Katherine is doing just fine." Pearl assures her. "Gems with her right now doing one last check on her to make sure she's cleared to go. She's been itching to come here, but has needed rest. I've been helping her finish clearing out the Overgrown, and we're finally getting some plants growing, some young trees too."
The news was a relief to Shrub. It meant Katherine didn't hate her, she wasn't avoiding the gnome.
She spent the week keeping herself busy. Gem lended her some books, as well as a notebook she started to plan and draw in.
The corruption got to her the same it got to her family and home, right? Like the other empires. And it basically died after Xornoth was locked away, so that means her home is okay again. Right?!
Shrub doodled the portal, trying to remember exactly how it looked. Was it just like a nether portal? An end portal? She couldn't quite remember.
The door opened, snapping her out of her thoughts, and she closes the notebook with a similar snap.
"Hey!" Gem waves. "How're you feeling?" She asks, starting to unwrap her bandages.
"Better." Shrub admits. "A little bit of pain still, but much better."
After she unwrapped them, she looked at Shrub with a grin. "That's great Shrub!" The wizard starts inspecting the wounds, washing them off before applying some healing and regen potions onto the wounds.
After wrapping them back up, she looks at Shrub. "So...it looks much better, I think you're good to move. Slowly, but not until I get Fwhip to come make a brace for your leg. I don't think you're good to fly yet, and I'd be careful with too much exercise. The chest wound looks in better condition than your leg, however I'm sure it's still fragile and healing."
Shrub just nods along, excited to be out of the room. She starts to sit up, but Gem holds her hands out. "Not just yet! Well, you can sit up slowly, but don't get up yet. I'll drag Fwhip over here tomorrow. Until then, stay off your leg. Scotts gonna be here soon to come take care of you, but after tomorrow it'll just be me stopping by to redress and check it."
"Alright, alright." The gnome sighs, annoyed slightly, and Gem grins apologetically.
"I'm sorry, it's almost done." She gives Shrub a small hug, which the gnome returns.
"I know." She grumbles. "Thank you, Gem."
The wizard smiles and starts to leave. "Your welcome. See you tomorrow, Shrub."
She hears her fly off, hears someone approach, and then a muffled conversation outside she couldn't quite pick up on
"...y! What are.."
"...ere to...ze..please Sc.."
She strains, trying to hear more.
"....alright...if you...on her..I will.."
"I know...I won't.."
When the door opens, she expects Scott, but another guy enters the room.
"Hey!" Joey grins. "Long time no see!"
