#i'd like to feel brave. or at least Capable

[a-hobit]

Let's just say that Horikoshi is feeling brave and goes with bkdk as the end game pair, either romanic, platonic or something in the middle. How do you think he would accomplish this and do you think people will see it as an ass pull or something that he's been building since the very beginning. P.S: I you think about it, there hasn't been that much 'that's pretty damn romantic for a shonen manga' between Ochako and Izuku as between Bakugo and Izuku.

This is a really hard question!!

So due to a lot of outside of manga factors I do believe there is some kind of "together" ending planned for bkdk. I don't know if we're talking romantic or not but I'd like to believe so! There's something fishy going on at jump at the least...so much extra content...so much promotion...it's just strange to me how they're being portrayed differently than they ever have before. It's interesting. I think if they are being set up for an ending romance It will be the type of ending to show a long epilogue -- something long enough to show how they are after the war as a duo and then later as a couple. It would be way too much to say they'd get together right after the war I think...maybe even a time skip although I feel like that's below Horikoshi as a writer. I think many people (especially Japanese since from what I understand the most popular ship for them is bkdk ) would either feel an understanding wash over them, feel something like relief that they were right, or feel like it was a "fugoshi ass pull". There's a lot of factors but if done right, and, I think Hori is more than capable of that, I think most people would be content. I have always thought that izuku and Ochako were very badly developed until I became a bkdk. It felt like he just...literally didn't want to or like to write them together which is SO strange since they were "endgame". I thought maybe they would be developed later but it just never happened on Izuku's side. He doesn't think of her often and does none of the emotional labor of having a crush with her. The one he thinks about is katsuki. The one he's closest to is Katsuki. The one who he's willing to do the emotional labor for is Katsuki. The one who he's thinking about starting an agency with is katsuki...feels pretty different to me haha.

Quincy Ichigo Ideas

I mentioned once how much of a fun AU it would be to see Ichigo be a Quincy instead of a Substitute Soul Reaper. I do not say that in the sense that I would alter his backstory or even the main story all that much either.

I mean, Ichigo as we know him, training to rescue Rukia. In my mind, the best place to do this change is for Ichigo to emerge from Keisuke's Shattered Shaft training but with his quincy powers active instead.

I'd be curious to see how the stories and battles change this way. Of course, there are two major hitches in the story I do not know how to rectify with this premise.

Namely, I do not know how I would do the Final Getsuga or Zangetsu reforging moments.

As for how Ichigo would learn and develop powers in this story I actually no need to alter it. Old Man Zangetsu is the Yhwach that resides inside Ichigo and he's shown to be fully capable of using powers Ichigo shouldn't know due to lack of quincy training.

He could easily impart those skills. That may even make the reveal of the true Yhwach much later that much stronger for Ichigo himself.

Hollow Ichigo also still exists. You could easily do a Quincy Vizard Ichigo in this set up. Imagine how terrifying a Quincy with a Hollow mask would be.

Of course, given his mixed heritage I would still like to include the latent Fullbring and Reaper qualities. In fact, the reaper qualities could be used to make him a bit more unique than a typical quincy.

For example, my base power set up for a quincy Ichigo would be as follows;

Reaper Related Powers:

Spiritual body. Like a Soul Reaper Ichigo has a spiritual form. In fact, just like when he borrowed Rukia's powers, he can only use his powers when outside his body. (at first anyway)

Shunpo (flash step). Just like in canon Ichigo learns this prior to the Byakuya battle.

Hollow Purification. Due to his Soul Reaper heritage and, due to borrowing Rukia's powers for roughly two months, Ichigo's quincy arrows actually purify a hollow.

^ This fact in particular I would make a highlight and headache for the Soul Society because soul erasure was the Reaper's justification for the Quincy genocide two hundreds years prior to the story.

They quite literally do not know what to do with him but observe.

Quincy Related Powers:

Purification Arrows. When Ichigo emerges from the Shattered Shaft he discovers that he can make a crude bow and arrow. To Urahara's shock, they purify hollows just like a zanpakuto would.

Blut Vene. If the canon story showed us anything it's that Ichigo has a knack for Blut as he mother did. However, he can only use the defensive variant.

Spirit Swords. Usually quincy form weapons from reishi but I thought it'd be a fun idea if Urahara does this for him. He even makes it a fun hobby to make better swords that compliment Ichigo.

Getsuga Tensho (arrow). This version of Ichigo has the Getsuga ability but it manifests as a massive arrow. With the black variant bordering on being a Cero outright.

There are other powers you could possibly give him throughout the story but this is what I imagine he'd have at start. I also chose to give him swords produced by Urahara because it'd be a fun way to have variety.

Plus, canon Ichigo has a zanpakuto so it'd feel pointless to do this kind of thing if I gave him one as a quincy.

Hollow Related Powers

Hollow Mask. As in canon Ichigo gains his mask.

Black Getsuga. As seen in the Bleach Brave Soul images I'm using, Ichigo's arrows and overall power would take on the black & blue coloration.

This one changes the least in functionality. The major difference here is that Hollow Ichigo didn't manifest as a Zanpakuto, it did not become Zangetsu.

However, that hollow power is still in there and just like in canon the Vizards intervene to help him control it.

But this also means you can have more fun with it since Hollow Ichigo isn't working on the logic of a zanpakuto here. It'll lend Ichigo power if he earns it's approval but it's all the more willing to break free if he messes up.

I left this alone because I just enjoy Hollow Ichigo's appearances. I also think it'd be even more horrifying/amazing to see when hollow Ichigo takes on Ulquiorra only to start forming swords out of pure reishi.

Just imagine the shared shock of Ulquiorra and Uryu in that moment to see a hollow of all things using quincy powers.

That's it for now

That's all the ideas I've had for this AU so far. I focused more on powers than story because I would like to see how people react in the story similar to how it is now but with a quincy running around unburdened with a physical body and a hollow mask.

You may even add funny moments like Ichigo harassing Uryu for basics or just the general shock and confusion of both Ichigo and Urahara himself once he emerges from the Shattered Shaft as a quincy.

Ichigo has no idea of his heritage at that point and while Urahara does he wouldn't tell Ichigo nor would he comprehend why he'd emerge a quincy when his "foolproof training regiment" was meant to make Ichigo a soul reaper.

Small things like that and all. Bye now~

i do love how much more militaristic heid is in the remake universe. and how he's got much more valor / honour. it's obvious my portrayal of him is entirely based on the remake / rebirth version of him. however, my lore is a mix of the original / rebirth. i love the original so will draw from it a LOT.

but one thing i appreciate massively in rebirth with heid is that everything we see of him is actually good. like, they've actually added the nuance i wanted to his character. though he's in fewer scenes than i'd like, it warms my heart to see his character expanded on in a way that isn't entirely negative.

in remake, we see him as a bully. he's brutal and cruel - he's a villain in every sense of the word. but, since writing him and analysing his scenes - i told myself 'no, this character is a WAR veteren - he isn't just a moustache twirling villain as people like to say', i tried my best to write him as a character with flaws, good and bad. i wanted to portray a sadistic, brutal man who holds grudges and scars. who is as capable of being loyal and brave as he is a monster. and i do appreciate rebirth for giving us the humanity that i wanted so desperately to portray in my portrayal -

like; i love his interactions with the soldiers. as @ivory-paragon said on my last post; that pride he gets from his soldiers doing a good job in his own seeking approval from his new boss. like, if they do a good job - he does a good job ( at least, he sees so ). it's nice to see him appreciate them, even for a second. and its good to see him pine for rufus' attention. he wants rufus to know that he's competent and doing a good job. at a later point in the game, when rufus demands his directors prove their loyalty. admittedly, i found it a little odd. heidegger has already given his blood for the company and for him specifically. this is a post ill make another day, im sure.

and during the ceremony, we see both a much more professional conduct from him AND a more heroic side of him. i made a post analysing his actions and suggesting they could be a mix of valour, self preservation, bravery or kindness. i see it as all of the above.

in later scenes, we see heidegger openly berate a traitor / show disgust over someone being a traitor. he resents it. i love that because it once again shows us his code of honour. his thoughts and feelings toward the military and how passionate he is to those he serves. heidegger is a low of things but a coward is not one of them, i love that rebirth has confirmed that.

idk, i got a lot of feelings. im sad that i didnt get more of my boy. of course i am, i played the game watching dyne and dio and thinking how tempted i am to try and take them up but also, heid has such a strange, special place in my heart.

since writing him, i lost my dad and my best friend - nina. i've grieved so much and been through so many life changes from graduating uni to changing career all while writing this character and idk, he's always been a consistent place for me to channel emotion through writing / analysis. so, it's nice seeing him again and even nicer having some of my own theories confirmed to me.

#this turned from a hc post to an amotional lill dumb thing #i wasnt upset the other day about rebirth making me doubt my characterisation #if anything - for me - it solidified certain things i feel #i was sad because other heid fans dont like me ha #(ooc) #(headcanon) #(analysis)

🔺Ask game- what is Tav most ashamed of, and how would she react if anyone found out?

Dear Brave-Little-Avocado-Toaster,

My apologies for taking a while to get back to you on this one. I had to think for a while. While I am ashamed of how I acted, I think there are worse things you could ask me. A seven, I think. Others have tried to make me feel shame many times in my life. My mother, for failing to meet up to her expectations; my wizardly colleagues, for not having "proper" magic; my former compatriots, for choosing the path that was efficient over the one that was kind, even a number of ex-lovers who had issues with...how to put this politely...my fondness towards the gifts that The Maiden of Pain blesses us with. I am ashamed of none of these things. There is something that I feel ashamed of. I did a bad thing to a good man because he got something I wanted. This might be a long story.

Every year, the Watchful Order hosts Venture Adventus, a summer-long event where teams of students of magic compete to create a new spell. Even getting into Venture is a huge deal. It practically guarantees archmage status in the years to come. I'd been with the same man since week two of undergrad, basically. We met in Ancient Magic Soc and that was that. He was an abjuration wizard, a painfully traditional occupation for WO grads and very much in demand. So a Venture team picked him up: a mutual friend of ours from AMS plus some of their promising Blackstaff friends. I'll admit I was hurt that we weren't going to enter together, but it didn't put me off; I was recruited too. Our team was strange, to say the least. Aeren, a brilliant, yet somewhat reclusive, transmutation wizard I'd only seen at AMS or in class had built a team consisting of an evocation specialist, an artificer, a second transmutation wizard whom for sake of brevity we will just refer to as my frenemy, and me; not even a wizard, just a student of languages, who for this project learned to read the most powerful language of all: Loross. Not Netherese, the language of the commoners, but that spoken by the archmages in their flying fortresses. Aeren wanted to create a spell that would boost the power of our magic beyond current capabilities. They told us the project was to ambitious, too technical, too likely to fail. The interviewer from the Temple of Mystra called it blasphemous. Suffice to say, we didn't get in. My ex's team did. We still worked on the project, though. We had an entire free summer and five brilliant minds. It didn't matter that none of us really liked each other, not like my ex's team, who seemed to be the best of friends. It was hard, watching that. Watching them excel together. And it was even harder working alongside my frenemy, who liked to remind me that she and my ex had been in school together, of how many times she had rejected his desperate advances. She compared him to Aeren, whom she evidently lusted for.

So if those things were hard, it was easy to say yes when Aeren asked me to work late with him, to translate the romantic Lorossian language while he worked the weave, to eat good food and drink good wine, to go to the opera and the theatre while my ex was at the tavern and the mage brawl. It was easy to kiss him. It was easy to fuck him. For once I felt like I came first. I wasn't second to my sister, or to my frenemy, or to the stronger magic wielders in my class. I thought he valued me for the things I liked and, honestly, it felt good to hurt my ex, to hurt my frenemy. I wielded sex like a weapon, because I thought it was the only faculty I had. I wanted my ex to feel as powerless as I had when we'd failed to get into Venture. My patron (how I referred to Our Dark Lord at the time) encouraged this behaviour, obviously, though at the time I didn't recognise Him for what he was.

It crashed and burned, as it does. I lost my ex. He didn't deserve what I did to him. We had a future and I threw it away because I couldn't bear to be in his shadow. I could not fathom the idea of being second to an ordinary man. I thought I was first in Aeren's eyes, but I think to him I was a fantasy. He started to tell me how we'd sip wine from his floating fortress, and for a while I believed it. That was until he met someone else, and I was second again. What I'd done to my ex, I'd had done to me. I must admit, sometimes when I look at Enver, I see Aeren. Perhaps that's why I've tried so hard to supress my feelings for him. There is a difference though: Enver has earned it. My supplication. For him, I'd accept second place. Enver will rule the Sword Coast. Astarion knows about this, he gets it. Anyone else, well, I fear my former comrades would use it as further proof that I've been an awful person all along. Karlach would probably use it as an excuse to accuse me of sleeping with Astarion while I was with Wyll. I could hear that accusation on the tip of her tongue at the ball. For what it's worth, we have never seen each other that way. Purley platonic. If Env found out, well, I suppose I will tell him eventually. If it comes up. I don't think he's in a position to judge me for anything I've done based on his own moral track record, but Banites do value loyalty. I'd worry it would make me seem weak in his eyes, susceptible to petty flattery and seduction. I'm laughing at what I just wrote. He already thinks of me that way, doesn't he? I think I shall end this overly long letter here.

Yours in Authority, Grand Duke Tavarina Ammakyl

Hi Gin! Congratulations on your 1.5k celebration! I'm coming in with some fun questions for your sleepover!

What piece are you the most proud of? Doesn't have to be about popularity, just something that you're really happy about how it came out.

Do you do anything unique during your writing process?

And for funsies, a little variation on FMK:

Brave an Ikea showroom, Assemble Ikea furniture, or Eat at the Ikea cafeteria

with

Frankie, Joel or Ezra

(they just seem like a fun batch to play with, though if you've got other hot takes bring 'em in, I love to hear them!)

Hello!!! Thank you so very much <3

I am and always will be most proud of A Ghost of You. It was my first fic, so I obviously think there are things I could do better now, but it means so much to me. It's the first time I've ever put that much feeling into long form writing (read: not a poem). It's the first time I ever shared my work. It's the reason I made so many wonderful friends in this fandom. It doesn't have a lot of notes -- in fact that series is the least interacted with on my blog out of everything else I've posted -- but that doesn't matter much to me. I love it so much lol.

I basically come up with the entire fic in my head and don't write anything down at all. The idea is usually sparked by a song, but not always. Uhhh then I do a stream of consciousness style outline that's a mix between actually writing the fic and just getting my ideas on paper. Then I go back and edit all of that so it forms coherent sentences. I have no idea if any of that is unique

Okay and for "Brave an Ikea showroom, Assemble Ikea furniture, or Eat at the Ikea cafeteria" Frankie, Joel or Ezra

I think I'd trust Joel the most to assemble the furniture with/for me. I'm fairly capable of assembling furniture, but I'm lazy, and I think Joel would like... make improvements to the furniture for me. Let's put those contractor skills to work!

Ezra and Frankie both have lots of experience exploring unknown terrain, but seeing as how Frankie made it out of the jungle with all his limbs and at least some money I think I'll brave the showroom with him.

That leaves me eating at the cafeteria with Ezra. I think we'd have a lovely conversation over the swedish meatballs or whatever it is they sell there (I've never been to an Ikea).

Thank you for this incredible ask!

Join the sleepover

This got long so poll below the cut:

Chapter One

REGULUS’ POV

Another argument between James Potter and Severus Snape, of course, led us all to the bathroom. I'd only followed to monitor my brother, Sirius, who now stands in the middle of all of us. I stay on the sidelines. Barty Crouch Jr blocks the door, but he doesn't do a good job. Unfortunately, none of us realized how terrible of a job he was doing until a girl catches our attention, barging her way into our affairs.

"Where is he?!" We hear the girl yell, causing Barty to spin around.

"Never you mind-" Barty tries, but fails.

She shoves her way past him and marches in, I normally wouldn't think twice, except that she's now in the boys room. I know exactly who she is, Nyx Crowley, the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen. She's the princess of Slytherin, and cunning enough to destroy the entire world. Ive heard horrid stories of her family, and all rumors lead to a dreadful accusation that she may be more vile than the dark lord himself. A monster, the public calls her, along with every other Crowley. Her elder brother attended Hogwarts, but he never graduated, joining the dark arts instead...just like their father. I would ask her personally, but I've never spoke to her, though we've both been in House Slytherin since first year, ironically we arrived the same year. She keeps an odd assortment of friends, refusing to be linked to too many purebloods, I assume to rebel against her own bloodline. She is however known to mock anyone that isn't a pureblood, contradicting herself. She usually remains quiet and reserved, though now is a different story.

"Hey, you can't be in here" Barty argues with her.

"Shut up!" She spits, marching her way to us. She shoves James backwards and pushes Severus behind her, staring up at James. "Are you all right, Severus?" She questions, not being bothered to look at him.

"Listen here, little girl-" James began.

"No you listen, Pottah!" She spits, emphasizing the P. "The best thing you can do is grab your books and return to class"

"You really need a little girl defending you?" He smirks at Severus.

"Don't speak to him" she demands, earning James's attention. "This is now between you and me. Severus, go to class"

"I can't just leave you in here alone with them" he worries. "You're outnumbered"

"Oh, it's them you should worry about. Go on"

"My wand, he has my wand"

"I'll retrieve that"

"As you wish" he sighs, reluctantly leaving. He gave Sirius a look, and Sirius gave him a subtle nod, I assume to let him know she'll be all right. The moment he left, she swings at James, but Barty grips her arms and holds her back. I feel my body tense in concern for her.

"Listen to me-" James begins.

"Did I say you could speak?" She scoffs at him, tugging at her arms. "Now I understand it's hard for you to see someone actually capable of using talent for achieving all that was handed to you, and you're scared because he's better than you, but how dare you stoop so low as to pick on someone"

"Me stoop low? That's rich, coming from a Crowley. Did you think we'd forget what your traitor brother did?"

"He's still better than you"

"He burned half this school"

"At least he didn't torture innocent students daily"

"Stop meddling in our business"

"The next time you go after him, I'll bloody your nose. Understand?"

"Why don't you do it now then? Unless your scared"

"A Crowley scared of some filthy little Potter?! Don't be so stupid"

"You can't fight a girl" Sirius says. "Leave it be"

"No, she's so brave, let her do something"

"You don't want me to do something" she stares at him.

"Let her go, let's all move on before something happens that we can't repair" Sirius tries. Barty agrees, letting go of her arms.

"Wait until Lily hears about this" she spits.

She starts to walk away when James grips her wrist, jerking her back to him. I step closer, refusing to let him fight her. She shoves him back, but he grips her collar and pulls her closer. I grip his wrist, placing a hand on her back in case he shoves her.

"Let her go" I stare.

"Regulus-" he began.

"I said to remove your hand from her" I demand.

He stares at me for a moment before letting her go. I let go of him and wrap my arm around her to walk her out. The moment we reached the corridor, she rips herself from my touch.

"The next time your hands find their way to me, will be the very last time that you have hands. Is that clear?" She snarls at me.

"Very" I sigh, clearly she isn't one for contact.

"Good" she nods.

"I'm Reg-"

"Regulus Black, we all know all about you and your filthy family history. I'd delve into the insults I could spew solely off your family legacy, but it's too much for me to tell in a single day"

"And you are Nyx Crowley. Your beautiful family history of thievery, sly tricks and dark magic is far worse than the tales of my house"

"Messe" she nods.

"So, James can't bully people but you can?"

"You're whole little crew deserves it. Severus doesn't...well, at least not from him"

"How is that fair?"

"Because at least I mock them for being mudbloods, not because of some little crush. It's pathetic and a total embarrassment"

"Do you know the entire story?"

"I'm walking away now"

"I take that as a no?"

"Do you know the entire story, Black? I didn't think so"

"Well it's been lovely" I sighed sarcastically.

"Don't lie to me" she teases, walking away from me.

"There you are" Sirius says, walking out and placing a hand on my shoulder. "You okay?"

"Grand" I nod, looking at him.

"Did she say something to you?"

"Nothing bad"

"Watch her, you remember what her brother did"

"Doesn't mean she will"

"Don't defend her, you don't know her"

"Don't judge her, you don't know her"

"Regulus-"

"I've got to get to potions class, I'll see you later" I say, walking away.

I'm extremely late for class, and I can only pray it would be an easy class today.

Only potions class wouldn't be any easier than dealing with that whole fiasco.

🥺🤡😬🎢

And I too think your jokes are very funny, my lady

Aw, thank you!

From here:

🥺 Is there a certain type of moment or common interaction between your characters that never fails to put you in your feels?

I think just characters being there for each other, communicating that in big or little ways. I really do believe that as humans, we're pretty much all we've got, and I find it comforting to dwell on the ways that can be a good thing.

I know this is insufferable but I am capable of crying because of my writing, and the scene that never fails to get me choked up is in World Ain't Ready, when Eponine breaks down recounting to Grantaire that Enjolras's dad called her brave. She had been needing to hear that for so long that when she does, she can't even trust it for a long time.

🤡 What’s a line, scene, or exchange you’ve written that made you laugh?

Most recently, in We Are Stardust, We Are Golden, Steve defending Eddie's at-the-time inexplicable behavior with "I don't know, he's weird, Robin! Does he need a reason to do every single thing he does?"

The notion of 'he's weird so he gets a pass in all social situations' is just very funny to me, especially because some of Steve's defensiveness is coming from a buried crush. Like, what an ungraceful way to come to someone's aid.

😬 Which of your fics would you be most horrified for friends, family, or coworkers to stumble upon?

Oh, the spicier Good Omens stuff, for sure. Something about centering characters who are canonically not humans really opened up the possibilities of writing smut that actually interests me. I think it freed me from feeling like I had to try to write from the perspective of understanding the allosexual approach to sex. When you're writing from the point of view of supernatural creatures who only have bodies because they want to, there's no wrong way to do attraction.

🎢 Which of your fics would you call your wildest ride?

Ooh, this is a good question and I don't know how to quantify it. World Ain't Ready is probably the wildest premise on the face of it. "Let's take these supporting characters from a nineteenth century French novel about a failed revolution and put them in an American high school circa 2005." I have a whole reasoning as to why this actually makes sense, but on the surface I can see it sounds silly. Also some bonkers things happen in that plot. At the same time, they take a lot of time to wind up and I'd like to think the story builds to it in a way that makes sense if you can buy into the premise.

I think maybe Lovesickness, though, really. Or Our Flag Means Parent Trap. Joly's voice, at least the way I do it, lends itself to breezing through ridiculous circumstances, and as for Our Flag Means Parent trap, when you start with one of your characters encountering a goddess in the form of a seacow, there's only really one direction to take it.

[amnesiacwarden2]

So, questions about your Primal AU.

First, what sort of physical changes are there? We know Palina has tails, and it appears that Sabi has wings in your Braivary sketch, but I can't help but wonder.

Second, what sort of ending did you have in mind? I'd assume it involves quelling Primal Dialga and Primal Palkia, and hope it involves the Clans making peace with each other.

Third, what happens to the masks after a Warden recovers? Is it gone for good, do they keep it around? What?

Finally, what happened with Iscan and Palina? I've left my thoughts under the break if you're interested. Apologies in advance for the detail I go into, the two of them happen to be my blorbos so...yeah. Don't worry, I'm not going to contest whatever choices you make (especially regarding shipping), but my ideas do assume their canon pairing is maintained. (Hopefully I'm not making any incorrect assumptions about what you're thinking with her and Melli.)

As much as I hate to say it, I see no reason to think their relationship didn't take a turn for the worse when the Clans started getting at each other's throats. Not to the point where they'd kill each other, but enough that there would be arguing.

There's no way of telling how that'd impact them while Primal. After all, Violet either had his feeling about Adaman completely reversed - or just is angry because of that "I Told You So" moment you hinted at.

Admittedly, we only know Palina goes Primal - Iscan might not. Assuming that is the case, I'd imagine Vixen would be...curious, about the fish-man. And perhaps less aggressive towards him than other Diamond Clan members. Alternatively, if you want to go the angst route she could basically be hunting him down for...something.

It might also be that Palina didn't die from, well, inter-clan warfare but instead from the storm that claimed Lord Arcanine. No clue if Palkia was enraged back then, but if so then I think it'd be perfect. Maybe Vixen sorta-remembers how the weird fish man tried to save her? He's last on the "To Hunt" list for some reason, even if she doesn't know why. Dying from the storm could also explain why she's sequestered the young Lord away - fleeting memories of his near-death, tangled up with her own, could make her paranoid.

I also think that one of the key memories for Vixen to recover would be that storm. Whether it was killed her or not, Iscan saving her (or at least trying to save her) is a key point in Palina's life. Recovering that memory could be what leads to her finally remembering who she was. No idea if it'd be possible for both Iscan and Palina to end up Primal, but if so that would lead to interesting situations. Maybe they're constantly at each other's throats? Maybe they're reluctant allies? Maybe they have this odd flutter in their heart when they see each other?

Maybe they have to regain their memories together? Not sure how that'd work, but it would be a neat touch.

Admittedly if Palina DID die because of Iscan, I...honestly think Iscan should end up Primal also, likely because of Palina.

Either way, Vixen and/or Primal Iscan regain their memories, the relationship would start being repaired.

wow 0.0- I’m gonna be honest I wasn’t expecting this in an ask but I’m super happy you did this!! And I’m more than happy to answer!!

So for the first question physical changes are mostly minor like increased body size, sharper teeth, tough claws(feet and hands), and some fur, or in a serious case like Violet or Vixen the two both are capable of spewing out fire or poisonous smoke which is common to the species they try to copy. These effects stay behind but only much weaker than before like Melli randomly spewing small purple clouds when upset or Palina spitting little embers at people. For Brave(Sabi) however the wings are connected partially to the suit and can be disconnected at will (probably won’t be removed even after the events that transpire)

second question: The ending does involve Palkia and Diagla but Volo makes an appearance with his followers and uses Giratina to restrain the two to take over the spared who have lost themselves completely at this point because of two pretty major things 1) The gods are panicked and linking themselves to ALL of their spared which is like a summoning to them 2) Giratina is attempted to over take the two control but is unable to because of a third entity drawing their attention away…

third question: (personal favorite) The masks do remain even after the wardens recover but are only summoned if the warden relapses from a traumatic memory that occurs from a memory of the attack or something that happened before example): Sneasler trainer who attacked Melli and captured Skuntank causes a relapse and Violet/Melli (it was a combined effort) almost take him off the census permanently… The guy doesn’t make through the month from a slow acting poison that brought him immense pain and Violet/Melli refused to help him despite Adaman’s attempts (the relapse can cause both feral and human mind to merge and the two can speak to each other in public it is a very unnerving thing for the rest of the clan however and Violet takes advantage of this a lot-)

fourth question: I’m gonna be serious with you… I respect your love of the two blorbos and I too care deeply for them. the two were in a relationship yes and still technically are- but Iscan can’t find Palina and is and has been aware of Vixen for a while partially why he warned Adaman of the dangers with Melli but as you can guess it didn’t work out… Iscan is a honorary spared to Vixen and Violet they respect him and will retreat from his generally space if they feel he is uncomfortable with their presence. The clans only started back at each other’s throats when Palina was announced missing and Iscan had been found nearby and they blamed him so the two weren’t really tense… His scent is all over the cliff side and it does intrigue Vixen as to why this man-who-smells-like-fish is walking around their territory

fifth question: this is a very important part of the story I will be honest with you… Violets anger and hatred stems from Melli’s feelings of betrayal and hurt that came from Adaman over looking important details and evidence that the other wardens brought to him to try to prove it and Melli had been injured when they went to talk to him but was immediately shut down by their older brother figure because he felt they were exaggerating the threat. These feelings grow into hatred and rage when Violet is “born” the confusion with these emotions and how bad it makes them feel makes Violet more violent towards their former leader and the trust that Melli had in Adaman will never truly be regained after it Melli basically d*ed a horrible and slow lonely d*ath of blo*d loss and hypothermia from a lack of protective clothing from the attack from the sneasler and the wounds they had Melli is physically and mentally scarred from that experience and can’t look Adaman in the eyes because they see him as untrustworthy with their feelings and events that occur around them because he might shoot their warnings/feelings down along with the fact that they almost lost skuntank because of him… and that’s not something Melli takes lightly trust me.

Back to Vixen and Iscan gonna say this first Iscan does go feral but it’s a little bit more into the story like about when the research trio meet ingo kind of into it Vixen hunts them down(Rei,Akari,Fate(OC) down and gives them a free trip back to cobalt coastland where Iscan is seen wearing a basculegin mask and squaring off with the local alpha Waldron and winning calming him down takes a little while but eventually he leads them to a small cave where Violet lies injured and unconscious Diagla had overtook Iscan(while alive) to use as a replacement for Violet while they healed(Diagla was upset with them for losing a fight with Vixen/Palkia during one of their full moon all out brawls) but released him soon after and he joins Vixens pack the two are close at this point but it is a respectful close even with the mixed (nice) feelings the two feel in close proximity to one another

When Iscan went primal a memory was triggered that woke up a feeling deep inside of Vixen and helped to slowly wake Palina up and Vixen and Palina did converse together for short periods of time and the two helped give Iscan his primal name Soul which Soul/Iscan liked very much

Palina’s “d*ath” actually happens from blunt force trauma her young lord witnessed it and it effected him badly and is much more skittish than canonly out of fear Palina was attacked by another Volo follower and was pushed off the cliff side by a alpha bravairy and it’s trainer Palkia warped space and brought her back to life as Vixen after she passed from the realm

when Palina has recovered she immediately books it from the med bay in Jubilife village hugs Melli as a thank you for being a good friend and honorary packmate and keeping them all safe knocks over Adaman and Irida in haste(you thought she was tall then she got even taller now) and runs-

THE-

WHOLE-

*SS-

WAY-

to cobalt coastlands to see Iscan(who recovered very fast due to a shortened link to Diagla and not being technically “needed”) out of a conscious/subconscious need to see him and didn’t even break a sweat (Fate blames Palkia and Diagla for the wardens random “energy rushes”)

trust me though Melli and Palina were and stills are in no way interested with one another the two respected one another for their own strengths and we’re more than happy to join together to protect the research trio from Volos followers even after it all the two are often found conversing together in cobalt coastlands or in jubilife village when the two aren’t busy or have given their lords free roam out in the open(something they discovered is beneficial for themselves and their lords)

(I am pretty sure I answered everything- but please let me know if I didn’t completely explain something I am trying to be a bit vague with my explanations as this is still a work in progress and I am attempting to respect canon as much as possible in this au)

If anyone thinks they can stand in my way, I will try to destroy you for the sake of my own freedom and capability. At the very least, I will shove you outta my way to gain what I desire. Which above all is freedom. The fresh clarity that I have felt in times of when my problems subsided for a time. I will do anything to gain that back, even if it means I have to challenge someone dangerous to gain it. Freedom of self is important to me, more than living tbh. I will always be myself, no matter what or who stands in my way. If they have the gull to stand there and act like they're my adhd or my depression. I Will Attempt To Destroy You. Even if it means they kill me in the process.

When I say this, I mean people who dare stop me from achieving my freedom. People like doctors, or even a robber tbh(i mean a person with a gun), people who threaten my life. People who stand in my way of helping myself to be better. People who abuse me. People who literally want to stop me from being who I am and achieving what I want. Which is to be capable.

(This can be taken the wrong way so I'm just trying to explain it better because I don't mean yeah imma dash my way to the top and use subterfuge to ruin people. No, it's more like, the people who don't do shit for me, the people who want to hurt me or stop me from living my life.)

People have said oh don't you value your life though? Isn't that just throwing your life away. B6 standing up to someone dangerous? No, it's living my life. If you have to ask, then you'll never understand what I mean. I've tasted the freedom before, many times. I love the way it feels and how strong I feel. How capable I am when I have it. I will die to ultimately be who I am. I will die to protect my own sense of self. Yeah? It's called pride lol. But you know what? I haven't done many things, including beating the crap out of people, for the sake of nothing. So if a man with a gun challenges me in my car to drive. Imma sit there and tell em they have to shoot me to get me outta there. Shoot me in the fucking head while I stare at them in the eyes.

Don't you fucking look away coward! You had the gull to enter my space, my territory. I'm not just gonna give up my shit without a struggle. Even if you kill me so what. Idc. If anything it's to be respected. It's called resolve to me? It's not about being a warrior or being brave or anything like that. It's about choices, regrets, and ultimately, just another person threatening me, telling me what to do.

Maybe if I actually experienced these things, I might act differently, or say things differently, but I don't and i haven't. For me, it's about integrity. If a man or whoever. Can look me in the eye and shoot me and kill me, then idk maybe I'd let them have the car lol. Maybe I'd give em money lol. Not out of fear but respect. But imo, most people lack this resolve out of fear of losing their life.

For me? Losing my life? I've been close or thinking I was close because of all my problems. Even now, maybe this all getting worse is a sign that I'm failing. So what else do I have to lose? I guess if it weren't just me, then I'd think about it differently. Mostly it's just a idea in my head when it concerns guns and dudes pointing one at me. It's just something I think about sometimes. What would I really do? Idk. But, in any other situations, I know how I am. And i refuse to stop being myself for the sake of other people.

Hi.. hello… here to show my enthusiastic support for sub Andrew and to pray that you don’t stop writing it 🥺. Sub drew fics are so rare I just end up rereading the ones that exists.. I already reread yes or no three times 🥲.

Oh anon 🥺❤ this is so sweet, I'm so glad you're enjoying it so much! Not to worry, I am already plotting out Chapter 3!

I don't know how long the entire fic will end up being, but I'll most likely just keep writing it as long as I've still got ideas and people seem interested.

Sub Andrew can be difficult for authors to write, I think, because there's a lot of common BDSM things that would be pretty clearly on his no-fly list. So the author is forced into either making him extremely OOC or being very restricted on what he's able to do.

In my opinion, keeping him at least somewhat in-character is crucial, because otherwise it takes me out of the story. So I chose to be highly selective about what common BDSM kinks he and Neil do together. It requires I get a bit more creative in how I write it, but I think it's well worth the effort!

I'm a bit like Andrew in that there's a lot of BDSM stuff that I already know I couldn't handle, that would be highly triggering for me. Unlike him, however, I've never been brave enough to dip my toe in and try any of it. Still, having that perspective of "Okay, what of all of this could I probably handle or enjoy?" has been very helpful in writing this fic so far.

I also try to approach writing them in less "cliche" Dom/sub roles and personas. In my opinion, they're both actually switches, both fully capable of assuming either role, and so I wrote them that way.

And when it comes to Neil domming, I tried to approach it a bit differently than I think is the 'standard' way people like to portray doms in fandom. Rather than him getting off on making Andrew submit or controlling everything, he gets off on making Andrew feel good. Which is basically canon - Neil likes making Andrew feel good. He'd be just as happy going back to vanilla, the only reason he even doms at all is because Andrew asks him to.

I'd also argue that sub Andrew is actually pretty supported by canon, but that's a whole other topic I won't get into here.

Anyway, glad you're enjoying the fic! I'll keep writing it as long as people express interest in reading it, so no worries there! :)

Hi! How are you doing? I hope you're doing well! This is my first request so tell me if I'm not following the rules. I'd like to ask for a one-shot reiju x fem reader where the reader is a straw hat. Thank you very much😊

Your request was ok! It was a real challenge to write this since the Whole Cake arc was really, really complicated and every time Reiju appears it’s an important scene in the story, but I love her <3. Hope you like it!

Warnings: spoilers for the mentioned arc, mentions of Reiju’s leg injury | this is a sfw one shot, but miiiiiight make a 2nd part when I get some inspiration on how to include the reader in another interaction with our beloved princess.

❋❋❋❋❋❋❋❋❋❋

The first encounter with the Germa 66 was completely unexpected. No one was mentally prepared to meet Sanji’s family when they made their appearance. Not when your captain was just about to die from poisoning. It was even more shocking when the pink-haired woman jumped aboard the Thousand Sunny, landing just a mere feet away from you, besides Luffy’s body. Her blue eyes scanned his body, quickly identifying the venom in his system. Your own gaze focused on her form, wary of what she could do, but at the same time mesmerized by her astonishing beauty and elegance. 

An audible gasp left your mouth when she lowered her head and began sucking the substance from your captain’s own mouth. It was a rollercoaster of emotions: admiration, for discovering someone capable of kissing him, of all people. Disgust, for seeing someone kissing him. Annoyance, at Chopper and Brook obnoxious screaming. Worry, for not knowing what the poison could do to her body. Confusion, when the wings in her attire began to react and the rash appeared in her cheeks. Her cheeks… You couldn’t help but wonder if her skin was as soft as it looked, making heat rush through your own.

Once she broke the contact, your eyes darted to her parted lips as steam seemed to escape from her glossy mouth. This didn’t go unnoticed by her, so as she stood up to allow Chopper to examine Luffy, she was looking directly into you, winking once she presented herself as “Poison Pink”. The world seemed to have stopped for a brief second. You simply stood there while your crewmates cried over Luffy’s miraculous recovery. “Did she just wink at... me?” A strange sensation settled down in the pit of your stomach, wondering why she noticed the woman with the most ghost-like aura of the entire crew. You didn’t even have a bounty to begin with.

Almost fainting at your own thoughts, you quietly listened to her interactions with the rest of the crew, secretly hoping that she could direct her attention to you once more. But you had to concentrate, you were currently on a mission to save Sanji, her brother. This wasn’t the moment to fall for your heart’s desires.

Despite your brief moment of determination, all you could think about was her silky looking hair, her long, defined legs, her beautiful blue eyes, and her plump, seducing lips. Getting her out of your mind was going to be harder than you thought.

…

…

…

…

…

And it was. Even after all you went through the following days, running into Pudding herself, trying to cross the Seducing Woods without dying in the hands of Cracker and Brulee or even when you witnessed the heartbreaking fight between Sanji and Luffy, you found yourself constantly thinking about her, sneaking glances in her direction, secretly hoping that she would interfere once again. But she didn’t. 

You barely managed to slip away from the gruesome encounter against the Charlotte family without being noticed. Too discrete to be caught, yet too tired to run too far away. You barely managed to hide beneath some of the severed remains of King Baum before collapsing to the ground, consciousness slowly leaving your body while you could only watch your crewmates being brutally crushed and captured by your enemies.

Heavy drops of water constantly fell on your face, managing to wake you up in the middle of the night. I took you a few seconds to remember what happened and where you were, scanning your surroundings to make sure it was safe to get out. With trembling limbs, you managed to quietly get up, still wary in case someone saw you. Fortunately, it was too dark and rainy to be seen, so you decided on being brave, making your way to the castle in an attempt to find any of your currently lost crewmates.

“This is my lucky night!” you thought, as you soon found yourself just a few meters away from Pudding’s own bedroom window and right in front of her, was the woman of your dreams: Reiju herself, but your hopes quickly shattered when you saw the bleeding wound in her leg and the brunette laughing in her face. You couldn’t even process what you were seeing before sensing footsteps coming in your direction. Quickly enough, you hid between the bushes nearby, surprised to see a gleaming Sanji with a bouquet of flowers and a basket.

Your heart clenched, he had betrayed your captain, no, your entire crew just this evening, and now he seemed so happy… And to add more to your feelings your crush was also injured and trapped inside a room with a potential psychopath. Unaware of your presence, Sanji began paying attention to what was going on inside the room, and so did you. 

The truth came crashing into both of you like a meteorite. Damn Pudding and her lunatic family. Now not only were your crewmates in danger, but the entire Vinsmoke family was planned to be murdered. You knew there was no way out of this situation if you were to continue being separated, so you hesitantly took a step out and showed yourself in front of the blonde. His soaked eyes met yours in silent, mutual understanding. No words needed to be said in the moment.

Eventually, Sanji helped you get inside the castle. He was a bit shocked that you had already met Reiju, and his mood lightened a bit when you told him you had a crush on his sister, happy that at least you found someone as trustworthy and good hearted as her.

After sneaking inside the infirmary, Reiju soon woke up, surprised to see you and her dear brother there, but then she remembered her injured leg. Then, Sanji and Reiju exchanged what they both knew. It felt awkward for you, this was a matter that involved them as a family, you didn’t even know what to say, glad that for now, they had seemed to forget about you. During these few minutes of them talking, you learned more about both of them than you had ever dreamed of. The way Reiju spoke her mind about her family and her wishes for her brother, only made you fall deeper for her.

A smooth voice brought you out of your daze “Hey, are you alright?” Lifting your head, you realized that Sanji had already left, too busy with his own mind to even remember you were also there. You felt your cheeks burning at the realization that you were now alone with the very same woman who had been plaguing your mind this entire time. Shyly, you averted her eyes, she was quietly observing you, her magnificent eyes scanned your form. Once again, you were in an awkward position, what were you supposed to tell her? You certainly weren’t fine, every muscle in your body was sore from running and passing out in the ground under a tree, your poor heart had also felt too many strong emotions, which brought you to the verge of tears again.

With a kind smile, Reiju motioned you to walk over to her bed. Curious of what she could possibly want from you, you swiftly approached her, almost tumbling over when her hand suddenly grabbed your arm and bent you over to her face level. Your shocked expression amused her, making her release a soft giggle before tenderly cupping your face with both hands.

“How rude of my little brother to leave behind such a lovely lady” Her right thumb began to slowly rub your skin, giving herself time to think what to say next, but before she could continue, your mouth moved on its own. “May I give you a kiss?” Not expecting her to take you seriously, your surprise was big when her soft, warm lips pressed against yours. The contact only lasted a few seconds, but to you, it felt like traveling to another dimension and coming back.

“I certainly didn’t expect you to be so bold, but I’m glad you asked. You’ve been living in my mind ever since we met the other day. Maybe it’s just a momentary thing, maybe it can be something else, but as you already know, everything will end tomorrow for us.” You quietly listened to her words, understanding what she meant. “I think you should go, perhaps you can catch up with Sanji in the hallways. You need to reunite with your friends. Please, take care, and take care of my dear brother as well” A sigh left your chest once she finished.

Taking her hand into yours, you deposited a small kiss on its back, muttering a soft “As you wish, my princess” before heading to the door.

“Wait. As my last wish, I want to know your name.” 

Without turning, you simply said “I’ll tell you tomorrow” and walked out the door. 

Your mission was now to find your crewmates and stop the wedding at all costs. It wasn’t an option.

Not to keep adding more wood to the fire, but the real victim of the writing is ava, the disservice they’ve done her is unforgivable. Having Ismail give her that weak ass apology, and then not give it a proper follow up, just to have them hang out like besties now, is terrible.

no because im like this with the fire

IM SAYING LIKE...

ava deserved to make isi's road to unguarenteed forgiveness fucking brutal like after two seasons of seeing how hard it has been for her because of ismail, const & the instas, she really was owed her moment of justice & i was owed ava making isi's life hell for a good few episodes before she was ready to even hear them out 😌🤣

by just glossing over that it's as if they erased a major part of ismail's character by doing so? whilst also making it loud and clear they don't care enough about ava as a character to write her a satisfying conclusion to her own storyline that's been present since the beginning of 2nd gen. consistency took a massive blow. like I'd go as far to argue the ava-isi story was what was keeping 2nd gen tied together because its so prevalent through it all despite the perspective shifts and now it feels like there's a whole lot of build up with no real pay off. it's also disrespectful to isi's character imo too like you chose this character and now you're just half-assing their journey? good to know...

i thought the apology would be the first step, something isi ultimately screws up by not actually changing their behaviour (thus their words being rendered empty) and ends up taking two steps back, and with sascha being introduced i thought there would be this huge conflict where sascha finds everything out and ava finally has someone on her team, and isi has to work really hard to prove they really are capable of change and figure out what kind of person they want to be. but they're really just hanging out like old friends? like one apology was enough for her to get closure and heal all that pain? SHE LEFT THE COUNTRY. ohmygod.

however having sascha, isi and ava be childhood friends was their first mistake imo like ava already had to go through her best friend coupling up with someone who stood by as a spectator and let the bullying happen until it spiralled so far out of control she had to up and leave, but now she's potentially having to go through that again? it's just...cruel. characters don't have feelings they're not real but it's like... blatantly disrespectful to put her character in these situations over and over again and then write her to be passive and accepting of it when that's just not the ava they built at all??? she's p confrontational like if she has a problem she'll voice it in some form and that's largely in part because of the experience she had with the instas- these are people who betrayed her- and she as a character strikes me as someone who knows her worth. if she can call out her friends why would she struggle to hold her bullies accountable?

having the main be a literal bully was something really unique, but they rejected the idea of actually dealing with the demands and repercussions of that decision and decided to pretend it wasn't that big a deal? isi has a LOT going on, like literally love them to death there was so many things that could've been explored this season so much they needed to answer for and they SOMEHOW made it so lukewarm and mediocre and the least complex/brave of all? they had so much to work with...isi had established dynamics already they didn't have to build them up from scratch but they decided to anyway? for why? to avoid addressing the elephant in the room? to not have to spend adequate time giving ava the closure she's owed? like i get this season is supposed to be ismail's so maybe they didn't wanna revolve around ava so much but writing it off during like episode 2(??) is not the way (also that clearly wasn't the case since they had no issues having it revolve around lou). if they wanted to write an easy painless season whyd they choose the arguably most difficult character to write for?

like don't even act like lou is anywhere near as wronged as ava...lou is being given time and energy that should've been put into ava...lou is part of the problem...

idk i started off with so much to say about this and then went off on like 3 tangents and rambled so much i forgot what Points i actually wanted to make 🤣 hopefully they're in there somewhere?? like initially i got the impression ava was really liked by the writers because she's been a pretty big part of 2nd gen even tho she's not a main herself, and imo i thought they did a great job crafting her character, she seems so human to me if that makes sense, but now im not so sure... like i almost feel like they used this whole backstory & ava as a character just for some quick cheap drama where it was convenient, with her being an ~obstacle for kieu my & fatou to overcome for example (and if we're right about sascha eventually finding out about the bullying this could happen all over again too) and it was never actually about ava or doing right by her character. OR maybe it's the supposed new writers that are to blame for the disjointed-ness? no idea. because its not even like isi's bullying was a thing pre-canon...they literally still act cruelly towards her in season 5 so it wasn't that long ago that isi was still actually actively hurting ava.

there's still half a season left they could rehash this but...lbr they wasted the first half on shit that didn't matter and now we're sprinting to the finish line.

#i am so sorry this is incoherent #omg bby im also so sorry for how long this is i didnt even mean to write so much 😭😭🤣🤣🤣

Save Me a Dance for Another Day, Perhaps... [MxM Roleplay Partner Search]

Greetings all, and I hope you're doing well.

My name is The Black Diamond, but I also go by Black and Bigs. I am a male in my early twenties and I've been in the roleplaying game for a long while. While I wish I could just RP 24/7, I do have a job and extra things to tend to IRL, which leaves me as a busy individual. But I always make a little time for fun ^^

Today, I'm looking for a partner (Male, Female, or In-Between) whom I can share my plots with and sate the little desires that pique my imaginative mind in the form of playing multiple characters. I understand this is a bold request, what with looking for someone who I can deeply rely on if any type of theme strikes me, whether it's a full-on plot or a simple picture that I want someone to RP for a short one-off session. But this is a way so that I don't have to keep searching for people and different plots. I've done it for years, and I've gotten a little tired of it. And if there are people in the world like this, then I will love you forever. With that in mind, I'll explain my 'requirements' and ways to contact me in a short-and-neat bulletin post.

— I only do MxM pairings, since that is what I'm comfortable with. Female side characters are fine, but only guys as main characters. Ref-wise, I prefer anime-like face-claims, so please, no IRL people or realistic.

— Please be 21+. Just for legal & comfortable reasons.

— Literacy. This will be one of my gripes. Please, for the love of Diamonds, be able to manage multiple, 4-6 sentenced paragraphs. I can't stress this enough from the people who come to me but can only manage a few lines. I'm not asking for a novel, but I'd accept it, but I'm just asking for some punctuation and grammar. That's all.

— As for NSFW, I prefer an even ratio of plot & smut. Whether plot or smut takes the lead can be discussed by my partners, but I prefer the latter. Kink-wise, it's encouraged to be borderline-limitless when it comes to it. This is simply a precaution since I have a few RP ideas that are capable of going dark and gritty. But I will say that, at the very least, be okay with Vore and Gore. That's all I ask-

— Please put out some ideas and suggestions. Now, I know that I'm asking for someone to play out the things I desire, but I'll also want to hear what you have to say. Call it a 'negotiation' for helping me out. We'll see ^^

— OOC Chatter is a MUST. It might seem like it, but I'm not asking for a robot who'll just do as I say, even though it seems that way, I promise I'm not trying to be that way, I'm just really bad at making search threads- I'd love to hear from you. How is your day? What's new? These are simple things I'd like to hear while we RP. Shows me that you're alive xD

— Not a requirement, but still appreciated. I have a few harem-related ideas running through my mind that I'd love to play out. If this is something you can do, then please let me know! (Unfortunately, my brain cannot comprehend a bunch of personalities, so I cannot play multiple characters myself- T-T)

And finally. I keep all of my RP-related things on Discord. There are no exceptions to this rule since it's easier for me to manage than a bunch of forums and emails. If you've made it this far, then congratulations, you made it to the end! Which is good because I SERIOUSLY need some compatible partners. I know I might seem demanding and high-maintenance, but I promise you that I mean well. I don't make requests often for the reason of coming off as a dictator, but for those who can see the good in me, then I really appreciate you.

If you're one of the brave, bold, glorious individuals who'd like to reach contact, then feel free to add me on Discord via Black Diamond Enterprise#1168. I wish everyone all the best. Cheers!

(Note - If the friend request doesn't work, then just send me a Tumblr DM!)

azusawrites: Hello, Bingo Buddy! I have a few questions that I'd like to ask you!

1. Can you share a pleasant memory of one of your OCs?

2. What is the one thing your OC(s) wouldn't lie about?

3. Does your OC(s) have somebody they admire greatly?

4. How easily does/do your OC(s) cry?

5. Has any of your OCs ever considered cutting ties with a loved one?

Thanks for the asks! I’m going to fill all these out for Georgia Chapman, my Uncharted oc.

1. I just sent an ask to someone else along these lines, so it’s totally in my head already! But Monty Python. Georgia and her dad would sit and watch Monty Python’s Flying Circus when she was a little kid. Her dad would quote the sketches word for word, doing the silly accents and making Georgia giggle like mad. He has even been known to burst into a Silly Walk when nobody except Georgia is looking. Less so these days because his knee plays up.

2. Georgia and Sam have a big falling out when she realises that he’s never going to settle down with her. She can’t lie about her feelings that some day she might want kids, or at least to get married. So she’s straight up with him, he tells her no, and they have their very first proper fight. In the middle of a treasure hunt with Chloe, Nadine and Charlie in the next room.

3. Sam Drake. The whole “don’t judge a book by it’s cover” thing…Sam eventually tells her his story and despite his flaws she’s shocked by how he’s still so…well, sweet, in spite of it all. And well-read. And well-spoken when he isn’t cracking awful jokes. And how he always puts his little brother Nathan first (like Georgia with her little sister).

4. Very easily. Georgia is emotional and wears her heart on her sleeve. At the start of Long Overdue she isn’t very brave but she soon realises what she’s capable of with Sam and Sully’s help. And she tries to put on a tough front for Chloe in Long Last. Sometimes it all gets a bit much for her.

5. Briefly. Georgia has a pretty good relationship with her family, but she has thought about cutting ties to keep them safe, when she is being threatened by Volkova. And also to spare them the pain…should anything happen to her. But she decides not to, after Sam, Nadine and Chloe all collectively call her crazy for throwing away a functional loving family.

Cottage Hills: The Island of Sun, Part VI

Day Six: Star-Crossed Lovers

Today Kai brings Popuri to the aquarium to visit another part of his mother's life's work. The Simbayang Aquarium was built by his mother, Prof. Widyana Kawanto, to promote awareness and protection of the island's reefs system, and of marine life in general.

Kai, in part due to his mother's influence, has always loved the sea, and the aquarium is one of his favourite places on the island. Popuri has never seen anything like it and is entranced by the myriad of fish who seem to be floating in thin air. The colours of the tropical fish and the corals dazzle brilliantly, shining in the dark, enigmatic interiors of the aquarium.

Popuri:

"Kai this place is amazing! It's no wonder you love it here!"

Kai:

"Yea, its pretty peaceful here... My mother really loved the sea too. And this aquarium has really done so much for the island. I've been wanting to bring you here ever since we got off the boat! Seeing you finally here... It's just surreal... "

Kai watches as Popuri happily observes the fish for some time before asking her if she wants to experience something really special. He leads her out back, where the aquarium has a small beach, cordoned off from the rest of the shore by natural rock formations.

They walk down the steps and Kai tells Popuri to get in the water. He whistles and as Popuri looks quizically at him, she soon hears splashing behind her and the squeaks of a dolphin!

Popuri has never seen a dolphin up close before and it truly is a memorable experience. The dolphins live around the coast and often swim into this small beach to hunt the fish in the shallows and to say hello to the locals and tourists.

They head back to shower, rest and change, and then Kai, fumbling with something bulky in his pocket, asks Popuri if she'd like to go out for dinner. They head over to the island's fanciest beach front restaurant, Padyai's, and under the glow of the restaurant's lanterns, they dine on some amazing seafood, while entertained by traditional Simbayang dancers, followed by a romantic dance under the stars on the restaurant's beach.

They walk along the coast, hand in hand, under the starlit sky, with the hypnotic sound of the ocean filling the air.

Popuri:

"Today has been wonderful, Kai. Everyday has been wonderful! Your island home really is an amazing place. Everyone here is so happy and friendly, and everything here is so beautiful...I...never want to go back... "

Kai:

"Thank you for coming with me, Popuri. Ever since we first met all those years ago in Cottage Hills, I knew that I wanted to show you my home one day. And here we are! It sure was an adventure getting here though. We're so lucky we got away from Shang Tao. I still can't believe everything that happened there!"

Popuri:

"Me too... Shang Tao feels like a strange dream. I hope Lao Fu Ye is ok... I wonder if my family got my letter? Do you think they're angry at me for leaving?"

Kai:

"If anything, they'll be angry at me. Rick already hates me anyway. But they're your family, Popuri, they could never stay angry at you..."

Popuri:

"You know, pretty much all the village men hated you when you first arrived in town that summer. I remember seeing you setting up your beach shop at the lighthouse. You seemed so independent, so capable and I wanted so much to be like you... Or at least a part of your world, which seemed so much bigger than mine... Every year, I'd wait for summer, when you'd finally return. Pretty silly huh?"

They reach the quiet far side of the beach, where a bridge leads to the small island. Kai leads her across the bridge. He holds her hands and gazes into her eyes.

Kai:

"No, it's not silly at all... That's just like you Popuri, you're so sweet, but also brave and reckless! ... I've been almost all over the world, and it's a miracle that of all the people I've met, that we should find each other in a small little town like Cottage Hills. My life has never been easy.... I wanted to work hard, to have a business you could be proud of and I told myself if you ever leave Cottage Hills and come back with me to Simbayang, I'd make you mine! But I never plucked up the courage to ask, it always seemed like your family needed you there. I can't believe you're here with me! "

Popuri:

"I can't believe I'm here too! It happened so fast... And I was so angry with Rick, but ever since I've left... I finally feel happy, and free. And it's all because of you. I would go anywhere with you, Kai."

Kai gets down on one knee, and pulls out from his back pocket a small black box.

Popuri:

"Kai... Kai what..."

Kai:

"Popuri, will you be mine? Let's make new memories on this island together, as husband and wife! Will you marry me?"

Popuri:

"Of course, Kai! Yes! I will!"
