A DEVIL REBORN

Happy Halloween!!! A detailed ID will be placed under the cut (it's close to being 1K i could literally post this to Ao3)

p1. ड्याम्म (dyamma) - Nepali for "(feeling) full", "hitting something"

p3. Chutiya - Hindi for "idiot", "moron" and other related insults

p5. க்ரீச் (kreech) - Tamil onomatopoeia describing scraping/screeching sounds

[Extended Image ID: DYAMMA! Slamming his hands on a table, Achanba Okram finds himself in the darkness of his laboratory. He is wearing black clothes and a white lab coat on top, and has a bowl cut with rectangular glasses.

His thoughts whirl within boxes that are coloured gold and are outlined with red; they put a voice to the uneasy feelings Okram knows are stirring inside of him. The thought boxes read:

With Pavitr gone, I finally have time to string my thoughts together. Half-drowned answers bleed out of my pores. Coalescing like some great, abysmal creature of unknown origin.

Bracing his hands against the table, Okram is acutely aware of his body, of the gaping holes in his back that bubble with demonic energy. His thoughts narrate, My body quakes when I begin to question, wracked with paranoia. With dread, as if the idea of what I had to face was unbearable.

The holes in back — four of them, spaced evenly from each other — begin to ooze golden liquid, hot like fire and viscous like tar.

And yet, Okram thinks, I felt it all the same: that crawling, scintillating horror of my reality. Of my tainted flesh and blood. My being here is the work of demonic forces.

Golden arms, fluid yet bony, powered by some otherworldly thing, unravel from the void in his back. They flounder and expand around him, filling the lab with a cold glow. The fingers are tipped with talons, and, if he looked hard enough, Okram swears they are edged with blood.

I died years ago, Okram thinks. I lost my humanity to the fire of the devil's madness. Thus, the question remains: what is the future of Achanba Okram, a DEVIL REBORN?

The lights of the lab suddenly brighten, and Okram hears him before he sees him. His arms register the presence of the other person, immediately unraveling and slipping out of reality. Just outside, Pavitr Prabhakar's voice calls, "HEY, DOCTOR OKRAM! Sorry I'm late! Traffic was abysmal today."

Pavitr's entrance catches Okram by surprise, and he stutters out, "PAVITR?! You- ah- you have one of your shifts today?"

His thoughts reprimand him, You CHUTIYA! Pavitr always has his shifts on Tuesdays!

Pavitr is unaware of Okram's turmoil, sauntering into the laboratory while hefting up a white plastic bag. He's wearing a black and white flannel shirt, and he has circular earrings. Pavitr's eyes are trained on the bag in his hand. He answers Okram's question with, "Yeah, I do. I, uh, got a little hungry along the way (I'm always so hungry)." Pavitr whispers the last part as he lifts the bag up. He continues, "so I went and bought some vada pav, and—"

He suddenly pauses, his eyes locking onto Okram. He can't tell what is going beyond Pavitr's eyes, but the other man's analysing gaze unnerves Okram to a degree beyond description.

(In Pavitr's POV: his Spider-Sense was just triggered. Red and gold squiggly lines emanate from and surround his head in a halo.)

Pavitr lowers the bag slightly in concern. "Uhm," Pavitr says "are you okay, Doctor?"

Dread and fear floods Okram's system. Suddenly he is hyperaware of everything in the room, including the golden arm that has sprouted from his back and was lying on the workbench behind him, right in Pavitr's line of sight.

Play dumb! Okram's mind screams at him. Accordingly, Okram replies, a tad too tightly, "Of course I am, Pavitr! Why wouldn't I be?"

KREECH. The golden arm scrapes its taloned fingers across the table, no doubt giving away its location.

Okram chuckles nervously, sweating almost immediately, at which his mind howls, Not that dumb!

Pavitr narrows his eyes at Okram and at the golden arm on the workbench. "Are those...demonic arms?" he asks Okram, a shadow crossing his face.

(In Pavitr's POV: In the back of his mind, Pavitr sees a vague and faded image forming in response to seeing the arms. He remembers Doctor Octopus, the man with two extra sets of arms who had attacked him many years ago; he was one of the first villains Pavitr fought as Spider-Man. But... Doctor Octopus died a long time ago. Perhaps...?)

"Oh, Doctor..."

Pavitr's gaze softens as he asks, "Are you being haunted by demons? Have you been attacked by them? Why didn't you tell me? I'm so sorry this has been happening to you. I can't imagine how stressful this is for you." A moment, and then, "Do you want to talk about?"

Okram hides his face in his hands, quickly responding, "No, I'm alright, Pavitr."

Pavitr walks forward, placing his bag down and reaching down to place a reassuring hand on Okram's shoulder. "But, Doctor, men of your generation have ignored their mental health for too long."

"Yes, I know," Okram sighs.

"It'll be okay, Doctor," Pavitr promises, "we can figure something out!"

"And what?" Okram asks somewhat sarcastically. "You will be here with me 'every step of the way'?"

"One hundred percent!" Pavitr says.

Behind them, one of Okram's demonic arms reaches out to peer at Pavitr and Okram; if an arm could be happy, it certainly was. The arm is seemingly pleased with Pavitr's helpful and understanding nature. /.End ID]

one beautifully done thing in terms of characterization in hannibal, is the way that hannibal was never able to successfully turn will against jack. i think hannibal tried very hard to convince will that jack was an enemy, doing his best to steer will into a perspective that would make killing jack in the end all the more easy, but jack is and was until the very end of the show BEDROCK and also a good man, and will saw that from the start. despite everything hannibal did in an effort to make jack the object of will's ire, he was never successful and i think that's a solid way to portray the sheer respect jack and will have for each other. will's decision to go over the edge with hannibal may have been a betrayal to jack in that one act, but i think ultimately the broken and the rebuilt trust they had for each other is the true test of esteem

#nbc hannibal #hannibal lecter #jack crawford #will graham #i love rewatching s1 bc its sooo obvious how hard hannibal is trying to manipulate will #but no one else is picking up on it save for a few select moments where then hannibal has to physically intervene #to protect himself

i just started playing acnh (i got a switch lite after years of wanting one :D!) abd im no where near decorating but, do you have any tips for how to lay the groundwork of decoration. I have no clue how to make a pretty island but i really want one so any tips would be appreciated :}

oh thats great! congrats on your new switch✨

thats def a good question, but honestly the main thing should just be to have fun with it and try to get creative in your own way, especially when you first start playing and everything is new💛 its hard to get items and diy’s fast in this game so patience is key and after a while you can consider trading with others and such if you feel its all too slow!

playing with terraforming and waterscaping is so fun but if you end up finding it hard i would look to the community and get some inspiration before starting a big project! im personally a big fan of moodboards and saving pictures that inspire me to build and decorate, so i recommend that too. doing a color palette with flowers and items is also a great way to structure your decorating and make things look very matchy and intentional!

i did a post a while back with tips for building up your island after flattening everything and i feel like that could also work for this ask -> here!🤍(instead of being tips for after flattening it could be how to structure starting over??)

the acnh community is large! we are here on tumblr ofc but youtube, pinterest and such are all great for gathering info and inspiration too🪴 also everyone with a very build up island has potentially been playing for years now, so take your own time and dont be too self-critical!🤍i 100% did not decorate the way i do now in the early days of playing!! hope you have fun with it!!💛

#something else that maybe not as useful but that i def do is pick an island theme! #that way your whole decorating has the purpose of creating the theme and making everything look like it goes together! #some in the community dislikes themes and i do get that but i love them and find it sooo helpful in being inspired to play #and if your goal is making a pretty island more than some of the other gameplay mechanics i would consider this for sure💛 #these types of asks are always a little hard to answer tbh so feel very free to be more specific if i didnt get what you were thinking of!! #tysm for the ask! #reply

back home from katsu! i had the BEST time, it was truly wonderful meeting so many new friends 🥰 i absolutely adored cosplaying kaveh! 🥹🪶🏛 he was truly a labor of love and i cannot wait to post more photos! but for now—to sleep for a hundred years omg 😂💀

#kaveh #katsucon #kaveh cosplay #be honest how obvious is it that i lost control of my life once i secured al haitham #and subsequently lost 2 weeks of cosplay momentum bc of his fun gameplay and hotman tendencies and then suffered for it the week before con #😂🥲🥲 #ok for real though kaveh was really really fun to build like #his design is sooo 😍😍 #heart eyes entranced obsessed w him forever etc etc *_* #i was so motivated to work on him (minus the embarrassing 2 week alhaitham hiatus) #(the alhaiatus) #and i really enjoyed picking apart his details with the limited refs we have like it rly brought me back to an ancient time #when cosplay refs were hard to come by and u had to zoom in on ur nintendo 3ds to see marth’s pixelated scabbard 🥲 #anyway i am DELIRIOUS and MUST SLEEP 😂🥲 #genshin impact #gencheer impact #my face

who is your favorite couple on your dash (that doesn't include your own?)

I'm bad at picking favorites :( so I'm just gonna name some people who come to mind. <3

@ferromagnetiic & @snowdrcp ! I'm sure they know this since I feel like I'm constantly liking anything I see between these two.

@medicus-felini & @waxgentleman ! Such a good and fun dynamic. Love seeing them on the dash so much. Truly a highlight.

Also shout out to @ikkaku-of-heart not just for the drama of Ikkaku & Hawkins but also for Tomasu & Arashi. I'm heavily invested in her Jorus & Ikkaku-lore.

#OOC. #ANSWERED. #there are sooo many good ships #and it's hard to pick favorites in general but especially when there are so many cool stories and great writing on the dash #tagging people...sorry....witness my love

#im sooo bad at making decisions pls pick for me #in my book its like a group of 35 people who are all surviving together and idk what the best option for them is #for plot reasons anything near a cemetery/hospital/funeral home/morgue would be a death sentence because thats where the Zombies Would Be #i figure that pharmacies and superstores would quickly be taken over by other survivors #me when im writing a book in a genre i know nothing abt: damn why is this so hard #mine
