YOU- I'm very sorry for not screaming in your ask box a lot lately, life's been a thing... BUT IM HERE NOW, AND OHMYGOD seems like ohmygrian would also work given recent events ATHERIX IM SCREAMING AND SHAKING YOU WHAT JUST HAPPENED
Ok ok ok, so lore lots of lore where to begin
Let's start off with one of the big ones. WATCHERS?? I am very calmly and politely asking you what the hell is happening with Scott and Jimmy. What. is. happening. Listener lore?? Other equally interesting plot points?? Only time will tell I suppose... I don't like how much power you hold over us atherix 😑 you like the tourment a little too much 😑 but seriously I love it so much you evil writer
Don't you just love it when your mate is brutaly murdered infront of you, then ages later (is it hundereds of years? thousands? i cant remember. lets just say time. Time has passed), you find 2 new mates! Who you love very deeply! Who you would do anything for! Only to learn one of them is constantly tap dancing at deaths door, and the other has now become a God after friggin dying in front of you 🙂 You cradled his dead body in your arms. You uselessly checked for breath even while knowing there was none left. You begged him to come back, to not leave you like she did begged him to LIVE. couldn't save them couldn't save them couldn't save And then he does. he comes back. And he's a watcher now! So you know. There's that. Then he tries to single handedly fight off two harbingers of death while injured, and while using his godly powers for the first time! <3 like an idiot <3 Everything's going great :D
Then scar. Scar. I think him and I need to have a little chat about the whole distracting the warden thing. Brave! Stupid! Suicidal! Luv I don't care if you think you're gonna die at any moment, please have some self preservation <33 if not for your sake, at least for your son?? And your mates?? (On the other hand it was very sweet. Still stupid, but sweet) But wow is he going through it too... nothing like a track record of your loved ones consistently dying for you :) it's something he's definitely not traumatised over :)) it's all completely fine :))) someone get this man some cuddles and emotional support STAT
By the way Tubbo must be having a great time right now 😃
All of their mental and physical health needs some serious help rn
Atherix. ATHERIX. 30 thousand years?? The magic residue?? The unsolved mysteries?? What does scar know... what's going on... what pieces of the puzzle are we missing... or have we completed the puzzle and it's just upside-down? Either way it's pain :D
Also the worldbuilding detail?? The descriptions of the city?? The wardens?? The enchanting?? This all makes me very happy <33
Im sure I've forgotten a LOT about these last 2 chapters, but this is all I got for now... your writing has a grip on me ohmygod
So yeah I'm normal about this. Thank you for consuming my waking hours <33
-🍂
(This is also from chapter 8/9 not the latest chapter <3)
No worry! Real life is Like That sometimes <3 I hope everything's okay! Highkey if it hadn't been a Serious Moment Grian would have said "you're welcome" when Tubbo said "thank god" LMAO A LOT HAPPENED-
So much lore mmm
YEP. WATCHERS. WE'VE FINALLY MADE IT FOLKS, WE'RE HERE, THE WATCHERS ARE HERE. Haha well we've answered Jimmy, haven't gotten into Scott yet but that will come up in the future <3 I on the other hand LOVE the amount of power I hold over y'all :) This is delightful <3 <3 <3
Mmmm Mumbo was born almost 500 years ago so it's been probably a little more than 4.5 centuries <3 But yes. Mmmm history sure does rhyme. "One of them is constantly tap dancing at death's door" I'M SORRY I AM SENT HJKSJKJKFSHJ but yes! Yes! Mmm Mumbo watching yet another mate of his get killed and he has absolutely no power to stop it :) Only this time the mate WAKES UP and now he has to trust the mate who just died and came back to know what he's doing so Mumbo can go help their mate to not die, too! Yay! Oh the trauma haha Mumbo will have nightmares about this day for the rest of his long life :) Also my dear 🍂Autumn 🍂 Anon how in the world did you make this even angstier than it already is <3 (Fun fact I plan to write a tumblr exclusive/aside of that moment from Mumbo's pov <3) Hahaha yeah god or not might not want to fight off the "monster god" who has ended the world who knows how many times <3 But at least they're there to stop him from facing down the Warden like he tried to face down Blondie <3
Oh yes, Scar is certainly going to be getting Talked With by a few different people in the coming days :) Once they've recovered more haha. "Hey Scar what the fuck" <3 But yes! If he's gonna die he's gonna make it matter </3 Try and give them a chance to get away <3 Mind you Grian's little trick didn't actually work, the Warden just fuckin. Mm. But the fire is a surprise tool for the future ;) God yeah :) Scar is so. Mmm trauma. He doesn't want anyone else to die for or because of him </3 He'll get cuddles and emotional support but he might also need a li'l therapy <3
Tubbo is having a GREAT time haha "I said I was FASCINATED by the Warden, I didn't say I wanted to MEET one!!"
Oh yes. Absolutely. They need all the help they can get.
:) Haha chapter ten answers these <3
I love worldbuilding and I really wanted to flesh the Ancient City out so <3 I'm glad you enjoy this~! <3 hjhgjfdj <3
Haha you've summed it up pretty well methinks <3 Thank you much <33 hhghjjhgdj <3
Thank you for reading~! <3

HI CAS HELLO 💅🙋‍♀️ HAPPY NEW YEAR AGAIN, hope everything went fine for u too 🙇‍♀️✨🥳 I have no idea how long this will get but I guess I'll have to cut it in two (maybe 3) different asks so you can answer them under the cut!! Hope you don't mind but I guess it'll be easier for you and your blog 🏄‍♀️🤠
Opened up my notes app to answer you properly (and out of order) but YES, red nail polish is a pain in the 🍑 to remove, just as black nail polish ― the first makes u feel in a gore movie; the second makes u a gardener that worked with wet soil and no gloves. I end up with a cute pink-multi-color-kinda-pearly-holographic glitter bc I find out I DON'T HAVE ACETONE 🥴 I said cake but it's actually a brazilian dessert called Brigadeirão (like the big brother of Brigadeiro), but I called it a cake bc well, I thought it would be easier to picture. It's more like pudding 🍮 but chocolate and less smooth (kinda of)!! It's easy and I bet you can find some recipes online to check out!! I can help too if you need, just scream 🫂🗣️👩‍🍳 [...]
Ok I Did consider answering everything all in one lump but then I confused myself so Yes we are about to embark on this 3-part epic together 🤝🪂🧗‍♀️🏇
Wet soil is a perfect way to describe it yes I can't even think of the last time I painted my nails black bc it simply hasn't been worth it to me, 2010s mary kate & ashley style envy be damned!! But YAY FOR HOLOGRAPHIC GLITTER that sounds so sick!! The last time I reallyyy let my nails grow long (like 4 years ago 🚬) I painted them this blue-ish chrome & I felt like a hot android, I think about it all the time 🤖 I have this stupid hippy dippy #organic nail polish remover I got from some random co-op that hardly even works like I truly have to drench my nails and scrub at them for 5 minutes each so by that point I feel almost as if straight-up acetone would be less harsh? Certainly less annoying BUT WHATEVER 😑
I looked up brigadeirão And brigadeiro and they both sound heavenly omfg. I never think im a major chocolate fan but then ill see something so decadent and rich looking like that and go rabid 🧟‍♂️ ok wait also I've been having ghiradelli white chocolate squares with caramel filling like every single morning with my coffee since christmas so 🧍‍♀️ what is the truth @ myself 🦧🪞 I definitely wanna be more adventurous in the kitchen this year so this will absolutely have to be pinned (for a birthday or holiday tho bc I don't trust myself to refrain from eating it all on my own) 📍👩‍🍳

Had a shower this morning. Except I wasn't in the shower, I was brushing my teeth. And that was almost a month ago by now and I can't fricking finish this because it's constantly detailing itself. Anyway, here is as good a place to write it down as any.
It mainly has to do with The Dead Zone (by Stephen King) and the Harry Potter universe.
Call this a wild AU.
Imagine this: In 1955, a couple years or so after little Johnny Smith gets brain damage for the first time (nasty ice-skating accident when he was six), he accidentally predicts the winning numbers for the lottery ticket his parents brought. Now they're rich, yay!
The first thing on their to-do list is to move away because let's be honest, Durham is like the small town version of Brooklyn. In the end, they somehow end up in another small town, in Scotland. Surrounded by forests and hills and valleys.
Few months later, they're all tired from trying to find jobs and finding eight years old Johnny a new school, so they take a break and go hiking. From there, Johnny goes downhill, along with . else. He tumbles down, hits his head on a rock at match speed. Brain damage go brrrr.
He falls into a coma. Time flies by, and for the Smiths, it's a steady decrease of money and will to live.
Almost four years after his hospitalization, in 1959, Johnny is visited by a man who calls himself Albus Dumbledore. This man (knower of all kinds of obscure bullshit) somehow just wakes the kid up, which causes a nurse to faint.
The mysterious man introduces himself to Johnny, hands him a letter, - addressed to him so accurately it has the door and even the bed's assigned number -, and tells him to read it. The letter goes: 'Dear John Smith, we are happy to inform you that you have been accepted into Hogwarts Highschool of Witchcraft and Wizardry!' and so on.
Of course, Johnny is more than a little confused. Magic? What?? Plus, he just woke up from- oh. Oh.
Dumbledore notices Johnny hyperventilating, panics, tries to calm him, fails, tries some more and barely succeeds. (Dumbledore had used physical touch to do so, and he's lucky the hospital gown was in the way. So far Johnny can only say for certain that this man is not to be trusted.)
After Johnny calmed down, nobody says anything for a while. He breaks the silence first, saying he wants his parents, and he will not go anywhere with anyone else, especially not with the fishy uncle who says he's from a school Johnny has never heard about.
Albus is immensely grateful for having come in muggle-friendly clothes, because otherwise this would have turned into a difficult situation. Like this , however, he can just go search for a (conscious) nurse or doctor and tell them to call Mr. and Mrs. Smith, their son is awake.
The Smiths are there in less than an hour (hospital's in the city, kinda far from their home, but closer to their workplaces), and demanding to be told everything, specifically, how is their son? Is he okay? Why is he so twitchy? (Damage in the nervous system, that's why.)
Albus decides to let the doctors do their thing first, and talk to the parents in the meantime. He tells them 'Your son is a wizard.' and all that jazz. Intense debate ensues, but I'm not patient enough to think it out.
Fast forward to Diagonally (Johnny's in a wheelchair ironically enough), specifically to Olliewander's (Ollie Wanders? I don't remember 😑), the first place after Gringotts where a problem shall arise (muggle-wizard currency exchange is a troublesome process). Simply put, no wand chooses him for some reason (that being his 'magic' not being compatible with wands in the right way, but they don't know that). Dumbledore and Olliewander (Ollie Wander?) are baffled, the parents are confused, Johnny is also confused, but for a different reason.
They ask him, and he explains he had seen flashes of the wands being made, sold and used for many things. Odd. The kid seems to have a talent in prophecy. Or something like that.
Still, no wand. But it's fine. There's still some time before school starts and Ollie can just make more, and maybe try to better suit them to the kid.
In the remaining summertime, the Smiths try to cram all the physical therapy into little more than two months and get a headstart on all the Gen Ed Johnny missed. The physical therapy was going fine, but you can only cram so much studying into two months.
Fast forward (again) to King's Cross, where Albus leads John Smith and another kid, this one called Tom Marvolo Riddle, to platform nine and three quarters. Smith is wearing gloves due to an accident with the physical therapist, and Riddle is looking at the former with a condescending sort of curiosity.
I'm gonna post this as it is and call it Part 1, because it's longer than Salazar's pet basilisk. And I need to gather stuff for the next one.
