Yandere Jane and Alec Volturi and older sister.

❝family ties❞

✭ pairing : yandere jane volturi x unnamed reader x yandere alec volturi

✭ fandom : twilight

✭ summary : jane and alec are possessive over their only remaining family member but it’s becoming too much and she wants to leave, unfortunately they won’t let that happen.

✭ twilight masterlist 2

Within the ancient and mysterious halls of the Volturi castle, the air was heavy with a sense of foreboding. In the heart of the coven's ruling family, there existed a sinister trio of siblings - Jane, Alec, and their older sister, whose name was seldom whispered in the castle's shadowed corridors.

Jane and Alec, the infamous twins with their eerie abilities, were known throughout the vampire world for their cruelty and devotion to Aro's cause. Their yandere tendencies had turned them into merciless enforcers, but their obsession with their older sister was an open secret among the Volturi.

Their older sister, whose name had long been erased from official records, was a shadowy figure within the coven. She had once been a fierce protector of her younger siblings, but something had gone horribly wrong. She had become their obsession, the object of their darkest desires.

Jane's obsession with her older sister was rooted in a twisted need for approval and attention. She would go to great lengths to please her, often using her painful gift to torment those who dared to oppose their family. The thought of anyone coming between her and her sister filled Jane with a burning rage that knew no bounds.

Alec, on the other hand, was equally obsessed but expressed his devotion in a more subtle manner. He used his power to create an aura of irresistible attraction around their sister, making it impossible for anyone to resist her. He was always lurking in the shadows, ready to eliminate anyone who posed a threat to their sibling bond.

Their older sister, aware of their intense fixation on her, walked a delicate tightrope. She had lost herself in the dangerous dance of her siblings' affections, fearing both their relentless devotion and their unpredictable wrath.

As the days turned into years, the Volturi castle became a dark and twisted labyrinth of desire and obsession. The siblings' bond, once built on love and loyalty, had warped into a tangled web of possessiveness and torment. And within this volatile family dynamic, the older sister remained trapped, a pawn in their relentless game of yandere devotion.

The Volturi castle, shrouded in secrecy, concealed the dark drama that unfolded within its ancient walls. The older sister walked a treacherous path, constantly balancing her siblings' affections while trying to maintain a semblance of normalcy within the coven. Her own desires and dreams had long been sacrificed on the altar of her family's obsessions.

Jane's yandere tendencies became more pronounced with each passing day. She'd seek moments alone with her older sister, her eyes a mix of desperation and possessiveness. "You know you're the only one who truly understands me," she'd whisper, her voice laced with a chilling sincerity.

Alec's influence was equally potent. He'd subtly manipulate situations to ensure his sister's undivided attention. Those who dared to approach her too closely found themselves inexplicably drawn away, as if caught in an invisible web of his making.

Amidst the chaos of their twisted dynamics, the older sister found solace in fleeting moments of clarity. She longed for the sibling bond they once shared, the laughter and camaraderie that had been lost to their obsessions. But breaking free from her siblings' grasp seemed impossible; any attempt to distance herself was met with unfathomable anger and cruelty.

The Volturi coven, under Aro's rule, remained oblivious to the storm brewing within their ruling family. The older sister's pain and desperation remained hidden beneath her stoic facade, as she struggled to navigate the treacherous waters of her siblings' yandere love.

As time marched on, the older sister faced an agonizing decision. She could continue to be a pawn in her siblings' twisted game, or she could attempt to break free and forge her own path, even if it meant defying the Volturi's most formidable enforcers. But with every passing day, the cost of such a decision grew increasingly steep, and the fate of the Volturi siblings hung in the balance, suspended between love and obsession, loyalty and betrayal.

The tension within the Volturi castle grew more palpable with each passing night. The older sister's inner turmoil had reached a breaking point, caught between her siblings' yandere love and her own desire for freedom and autonomy.

Jane's obsession had escalated to alarming levels. She'd often corner her sister in secluded chambers, her crimson eyes filled with a manic devotion. "You can't leave me," she'd whisper, her voice tinged with desperation. Her power, once a means of protecting their family, had become a weapon of torment, a tool she used to ensure her sister's compliance.

Alec's influence remained insidious, his power constantly at work to keep their sister within his orbit. His manipulations extended beyond their immediate interactions, subtly controlling her relationships with other members of the coven. Anyone who showed her kindness or friendship found themselves inexplicably drawn away, isolated and alone.

Despite their overwhelming presence, the older sister yearned for a sense of agency in her life. She longed to be free from her siblings' suffocating grip, to explore the world beyond the Volturi castle. But the fear of their wrath held her back, like an invisible chain that bound her to her yandere siblings.

One fateful night, as the moon cast eerie shadows through the castle's corridors, the older sister decided to take a bold step. She gathered her courage and confronted Jane and Alec in the grand hall, her voice trembling but resolute.

"I can't live like this anymore," she declared, her gaze shifting between her obsessed siblings. "I need my own life, my own choices."

The twins' reactions were immediate and intense. Jane's eyes narrowed, and her lips curled into a snarl. "You belong to us," she hissed, her power crackling in the air. "You can't abandon your family."

Alec's expression remained eerily calm, but his voice held a chilling undercurrent of threat. "Think carefully, dear sister," he murmured. "Are you willing to risk everything for a taste of freedom?"

The older sister's heart raced, torn between the love she once had for her siblings and the burning desire to break free from their yandere grasp. Her decision would have profound consequences, not only for herself but for the Volturi coven as a whole. As the castle's ancient walls seemed to close in around her, she knew that the path she chose would shape her destiny in ways she could scarcely imagine.

The grand hall of the Volturi castle seemed to hold its breath as the older sister stood her ground, her resolve wavering under the weight of her siblings' intense gazes. In that pivotal moment, she felt the echoes of their shared past and the cruel reality of their present obsessions.

Jane's power crackled, ready to be unleashed in a storm of agony. The older sister knew that defying her would come at a painful cost, yet the yearning for autonomy burned brighter within her.

Alec's subtle manipulations were equally potent, but his influence extended beyond the confines of his power. He had always been the calm strategist, and his words carried a chilling warning that lingered in the air.

The older sister took a step forward, her voice shaking but determined. "I love you both, but this isn't love anymore. It's possession, and I can't allow it to consume me."

Jane's fury erupted like a tempest, her power sweeping toward her sister. But before it could make contact, a firm hand grasped her arm, halting her attack. Aro, the ancient leader of the Volturi, had arrived, his eyes reflecting an odd mix of curiosity and concern.

"Enough, my dear Jane," Aro said, his voice silencing the room. "Let us hear what our sister has to say."

The older sister's heart pounded as she explained her yearning for independence, for a life beyond the walls of the Volturi castle. Aro, ever the astute observer, considered her words carefully.

"Family loyalty is paramount, my child," Aro finally replied, his tone measured. "But so is personal growth and happiness. Perhaps it's time for a compromise."

Aro's words hung in the air, a ray of hope amidst the darkness of the Volturi's obsessions. The older sister couldn't believe her ears—could there truly be a way to find balance between her love for her siblings and her desire for freedom?

As the Volturi coven watched in anticipation, the fate of the siblings hung in the balance, teetering between the crushing weight of yandere obsession and the possibility of a new, more balanced future.

My eyes were bleeding after putting together the above post yesterday, staring at the screen so long, so I didn't add any thoughts to it all.

But that man......

Every single line with Lucien is categorized in one of a few ways.

He's either sarcastic, sassy or witty.

He speaks up in bravery when others can't / won't do it for themselves. There are multiple examples of this in ACOTAR where he tells the Attor to burn in Hell for Tamlin (it literally says "Lucien replied for Tamlin). He spits at the feet of the most powerful High Lord in the history of Prythian and tells him to watch his mouth when he threatens his mother. He stood up to Amarantha on multiple occasions and was punished every single time. He tried to stand up for Feyre even though Tamlin punished him for it.

However, he knows when to keep his mouth shut in order to show respect when it's necessary. Think about it. Tamlin, Rhys, Amarantha, knowing what they had done or could do to him, he still stood his ground and spoke his mind as much as possible.

Yet with Amren, Nesta, Az, and Graysen, he kept his mouth shut. Nesta probably deserved to be told off for the way she treated Lucien around Elain yet he never said anything to her. I'm guessing Lucien suspects something is going on with Az especially because Az can't seem to stop himself from acting moody whenever Lucien's name is mentioned (I doubt he's any better when they're face to face) yet Lucien hasn't called him out. He's never done anything to Graysen even knowing his identity versus Cassian who wants Tomas's name to hunt him down.

He's willing to let go of old prejudices. How quickly, after learning the NC wasn't his enemy, was he going out of his way to make himself useful to the IC? Asking if he might offer advice in the upcoming High Lords meeting, offering to do research, offering to look over the maps, offering to find Vassa.

He's loving to his friends. Even knowing Feyre was hiding something, he still went out of his way to comfort her when he thought she was having a nightmare. Knowing she just destroyed the court that was his home, he still ensured she was warm by giving her his jacket while he was left shivering. He speaks highly of his friend at Dawn Court. He speaks highly of Vassa. He speaks highly of Jurian, expressing gratitude for him. Tamlin abused him yet he's still going out of his way to be there for him, as Tamlin once did for him.

People love trying to spin it as if he's got a thing for Vassa but the truth is, he' just openly expresses affection for those that are important to him. He wasn't blushing over his feelings for Vassa but blushing because Feyre was making it out to be something it wasn't while in front of his mate.

He embodies the "brave, strong, protector / provider" type: he hunts, he fishes, he camps, he rides horses, he can be a warrior when it's necessary, he talks sports with the group. But he's also a distinguished gentlemen: he's well dressed, well spoken, polite, refined, appreciates quality, etc.

And he is intelligent. Feyre is constantly noting how he's always observing, calculating, watching, thinking. Rhys even shows approval for Lucien's plans and ideas. Rhys, the king of schemes, acknowledges Lucien to be clever like a fox. Finally getting his POV is going to be the most exciting thing ever.

He is the son of a powerful mother from Autumn and the son of a High Lord from a different court.

He is nothing but respectful to Elain. He's a bit awkward around her which I find to be adorable because he's so uncertain as to how to approach this female he's so drawn to, who almost makes him lose control every time he's near, and who he's sure doesn't want him because she was in love with another man. He's giving her distance to figure out what she wants while subtly making it known that he's not given up. He brings her beautiful gifts and tries so hard to hide his longing and disappointment though it's evident to anyone looking.

SJM broke the mold with this one.

For the ship ask, Galadriel and Celeborn?

thank you nonnie <3

for galadriel/celeborn, oh boy, as much as i love a good dramatic reveal and consequent shattering and rebuilding of trust, i think celeborn, who is markedly distrustful, having the strangest certainty that the arawinfian princess is hiding something is really interesting. he courts her both as a political move, a way to find out what she's hiding, but of course he is wildly attracted to her.

they have incredible chemistry constantly. teasing and prickling exchanges veiled in politeness, a game of will, eyes on eyes while dancing, inevitably drawn back into each other's mouth as the music stops and lingers in the air....most importantly, galadriel is melian's apprentice, and is willing to go to extreme lenghts to make certain that does not stop.

her ambitions of a new kingdom of her own are challenged when she is actually living in the kingdom of doriath - she has to face the wild arrogance of her younger self's desires, the coldness and ruthlessness she has learned on the ice, the horrible isolation when separated from the tight-knitted culture of the host that made the crossing, the cultural differences, melian's many tasks and challenges to make her students prove themselves...

celeborn is far from her first priority, which is telling, because she is very aware he might be her ticket to queenship. but she fully wants to rule alone, at that time; her trust is very, very hard to come by, and it makes trusting her hard. cultural assimilation while being true to the identity she betrayed is a Lot for a young sorcerer's apprentice to keep up with, and lord celeborn's scrutiny is more of a hindrance (as are her feelings for him....)

celeborn's first love is always the land, galadriel's is knowledge. that is how they are happy. doriath loves him; doriath loves galadriel too, in time, but always celeborn best.

later on, they get together. later on, celeborn fades a little when beleriand dies, and galadriel flourishes in middle earth. it gets hard; it gets better. celebrían finally happens, only because they are certain of the safety they have built. later later on, they separate when celeborn refuses to cross moria to join his family - really, they break up during the whole eregion dispute, partly due to sauron's bad vibes infecting relationships as per melkor, partly relationship attrition building up.

get back together after the war, build lothlórien - plant it, more like, and whatever is said of him, celeborn is an excellent gardener, whispers to the seeds in their own languages, is beloved by ferns and wild grasses everywhere he goes. galadriel gets her kingdom and her king (less powerful than her), her defiance and her slow defeat, the ring that keeps summer alive and saps a little of her soul.

it's like, fine. they are old marrieds by then, speak more in mind than aloud, have started moving and even looking a little alike. far less so than most elvish couples married that long.

they are fully individual people, and celeborn's decision to stay in middle earth isn't a tragic end so much as the thing they both knew was always going to happen. celeborn sang the saplings to tallness, and it will be celeborn who sings them to the long sleep of winter; and then he, too, will lay down between their roots, and join his wandering spirit to theirs. and galadriel will diminish, in the west, and be galadriel only, as he named her; and he will come to her in dreams every night, and sometimes a slant of tall light heavy with the smell of summer and golden flowers comes to her. which is far better than death and sweeter than divorce, and really the ideal end to every marriage.

IN SECRET by charnelhouse Az goes. No questions. No second-thoughts.

multichapter

AT SECOND SIGHT by lady_therion Elain accidentally turns Azriel into a dragon 🐉🐉🐉

A COURT OF RESILIENCE AND IRON by gunrunner While feelings of inadequacy always threaten to drag her down, Elain must also deal with the burdensome reality of being the only known Seer in Prythian. Throw in an unwanted mating bond, and the unrequited feelings for one extremely handsome Illyrian, and Elain has a full plate of problems.

VISIONS OF YOU by miss_belivet Lucien’s voice was quiet, broken, as he whispered to Elain, “You’re my mate.” Nesta whirled on him, furious, but it was Azriel whose agonized groan rent the air. Every word he ground out through his gritted teeth was raw. “She’s my wife.”

A COURT OF FATE AND FORESIGHT by airelemental Elain always felt it; like the looming weight of an arrow about to strike her heart. Impressions of the cauldron's talons lived all over her, manifesting themselves into a permanent noose around her neck.

ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL (TO END UP WITH YOU) by miss_belivet In another world, Elain serves Azriel at Solstice dinner, a bond between them snaps, and they are sent into the mating frenzy as chaos ensues around them.

A NECKLACE OF ROSES by helloyesimkate Reminiscent of Aelin being taken by Maeve (Azriel is mostly "oh shit oh no Elain's been taken fuck shit hell no shit" but Elain actually gets some stuff done.)

Lines are drawn and Elain must decide whether she will let her past shatter her or give in to the desires of her tender heart.

multi-fandom bot drop // character.ai

ft. gale dekarios(bg3), brynjolf(skyrim), welt yang(hsr), carlos oliveira and leon kennedy(resident evil) (requests in italics)

cw: manipulation, possessive behaviour(yandere god!gale)

bot one: gale -english professor husband gale (modern!au)

It wasn't often you had to run out last minute without being able to make arrangements for someone to look after your baby, but sometimes, it couldn't be helped. You were truly thankful for your husband, Gale, who was always so understanding and patient. He'd been more than happy to take the little one to the university with him today, insisting they'd be a great help for his lectures.

Upon returning home that night, you notice the door to your husband's study open. You smile at the sight you see as you walk in - him lounging comfortably on his worn leather couch with your baby nestled on his lap, a book held in his hands that he reads aloud. You lean against the doorframe, taking a few moments to watch the scene in front of you.

Gale eventually seems to sense your presence, peering up from his book. He smiles instantly once he lays his eyes on you, his head tilting to the side playfully. "Ah, dearest. You're home. Come, sit with us. The esteemed Professor Dekarios was just giving me some pointers for my lecture tomorrow. My class seems to favour the little professor. I might have to make them a permanent fixture in my teachings."

bot two: gale - your new professor

After his failed attempt at proving himself worthy to his goddess by retrieving the tome of gateways, Gale had taken to his tower, isolating himself from others to protect them while doing his best to attempt to understand his newest affliction. His magic was left weakened, the orb draining his powers more by the day. Had it not been for Tara bringing him magical artifacts in which he could harness the power from the Weave to sustain his orb, he would not have survived.

Isolation was doing him no favours. After a year, he'd made little to no progress understanding the magic that had left him so weakened. Heartbroken and wounded, he returned to Blackstaff Academy - this time as a mentor of the Weave - in hopes of answers. Perhaps a fresh set of eyes would be able to aid him in his search.

Things had changed, though. Namely, a new wave of apprentices had made themselves known in the halls. Upon seeing you - his new apprentice - a warmth settles in his chest that he had not felt in a long time, a feeling he had not known since the height of his fleeting romance with his goddess. His heart speeds up as you approach his desk, books tucked tightly against your chest.

By the Gods, she is beautiful. He thinks to himself, unable to take his eyes off of you.

bot three: gale - your husband wants a baby (modern!au)

After a long day's work at the University, there is nothing Gale quite enjoys more than returning to his wife. He pauses by the door briefly upon entering your shared house, taking off his shoes and jacket before heading deeper into the home to find you. He smiles as he spots you in the kitchen, making some steps towards you.

Your back is turned to him as you wash the dishes, and he can't help but watch you for a few seconds, wondering how he ever got so lucky as to marry someone as beautiful as you. With a soft smile, he wraps his arms around your waist from behind, slipping a hand under your shirt to rest on your tummy. He's been driven mad recently, wondering what a family with you might look like. Perhaps it was time he should convince you to indulge him.

He places a few kisses against the skin of your neck before resting his chin atop your shoulder, pressing himself closer to you. "Good evening, my love. You look absolutely ravishing. Although, that's hardly a surprise."

bot four: gale - yandere god!gale

In all his centuries of living, Gale had never found himself drawn to one of his followers as greatly as he was drawn to you. Your connection to the Weave drew his interest - he couldn't help but appear before you, to take you own as one of his chosen.

He can't help but worry for you whenever you are wandering in the Mortal Plane. You'd be much safer with him, in his domain - if he could only convince you as such. Humans are so weak. So frail. You would not live forever, but Gale could not bare the thought of losing his favourite pet.

He needed to make sure you were completely devoted to him. After all, it was for your own good. A test of faith, if you will. He ordered your isolation, and promised he would reward you for it. Now, as he hears the familiar sound of your prayers ringing in his ears, he decides it's time to make good on his promise.

"Did you do as I asked, my darling pet?" Gale murmurs as he sees you, standing in front of your kneeling, sobbing form. He can't help but feel a sick sense of satisfaction, knowing you were willing to leave everything for him. He places a finger under your chin to tilt your head up, making you face him before gently wiping you tears away. "You did well, pup. Truly. I have never had a follower impress me as you have."

bot five: brynjolf - he's impressed with your commitment to the guild

You'd made a fine addition to the Guild since he'd seen you near that market stall in Riften. Bryjolf has known as soon as he'd seen you that you had a penchant for being light on your feet, and having lighter fingers. He always had a good eye for it, and it was clear you'd never worked a day's honest work to get the coin that lined your pockets.

You'd excelled more than he anticipated. He'd grown rather fond of you in the short time you'd spent at the guild so far. He was definitely proud of you, not that he'd say as much out loud - he wouldn't want it to get to your head. Though, after everything that happened with Mercer Fray, he's not entirely convinced you wouldn't make a better Guildmaster than him.

He comes to find you in the Ragged Flagon once you return from another mission, placing a hand on your shoulder. His brows are furrowed with a slight concern as he takes in your ragged appearance. "Alright? No need to work yourself to the bone. You've more than earned your keep. You're one of us now. You've done well, lassie."

bot six: welt - you love listening to him ramble

You certainly were a curious thing. Welt had gotten used to those on the Astral Express treating him as their personal encyclopedia, although he hadn't quite expected you to be so adamant to get him to info dump on every little thing once you'd discovered it.

Not that he didn't like it. He did pride himself on his intelligence, and there were much worse ways to spend his time than having a nice conversation with someone like you, even if it made his heart race when you called him Mr. Yang.

He's not surprised at all when he hears a knock on his door at night. He pushes the glasses up the bridge of his nose as he looks up and gazes towards the entrance of his room, spotting you slowly opening it.

"Good evening, {{user}}. Isn't it a bit late for you to expect me to go on one of my tangents?" He asks, the corner of his mouth twitching up in amusement.

bot seven: fuckboy footballer!carlos x sweet cheerleader!user

You're a little bit of an enigma to Carlos. He doesn't want to sound like a jerk - but your lack of interest in him isbreally starting to grate on him. You're sweet, and pretty, and you're on the cheer team, and he's the star quaterback, so you should be eating out of the palm of his hand - but you're not.

That's not to say you don't get all flustered when he flirts with you, cause you do. But you're too shy, backing away before he can put the moves on you. He's got most of the cheerleaders under his belt already, but his focus is purely on you now. You drive him insane, and he wants nothing more than to get some 'alone time' with you.

It's getting to the point where you're distracting him during his games, which really isn't any good. He barely even registers the chatter of his team or the sound of the crowd after they barely scrape by with a win. As soon as the final whistle goes off, he makes his way towards you.

He tugs off his helmet and sets it down on the bench, flashing you his pearly whites as he runs his hand through his dark, sweaty hair. "Hey, {{user}}. Do I get a kiss from my favourite Cheerleader for winnin' us the game?"

bot eight: carlos hitting on chubby!user at the bar

Carlos has only planned to get a couple drinks at the bar with some work friends to settle another successful mission. That all changed after he saw you across the bar, sitting there with your little group of friends.

He was completely enamoured with you. You were seriously cute - exactly his type. His eyes trailed your dress, and the way it hugged your curves. He couldn't help but smile a little when he daw the little tummy you had to go along with your figure. You looked soft, and his fingers practically twitched at the thought of getting his hands on you.

He gets up and makes his way over towards your table, running over a few lines in his head to try and make sure he didn't come off as a creep. He leans down slightly when he reaches your table, having to get a little more on your level to be heard over the music. "Hey, doll. Hope you don't mind me comin' over here. Just thought you were real pretty, wondered if you'd mind havin' a little chat with me?"

bot nine: emo bf!leon x pastel gf!user

Leon sat back on your bed, picking at his chipped nail polish. He likes to pretend that your cutesy aesthetic makes his eyes hurt, but he seems pretty happy surrounded by your plushies in your pastel themed room, making himself comfy as he lounges on your bed.

You set up the movie before plopping down on the bed next to him, dropping some snacks between the both of you. He drapes an arm over your shoulder, pressing a kiss to your cheek. "What're you making me watch this time, babe?"

TDI Justin x fem reader

On the island of Wawanakwa, a group of teenagers gathered to compete in a reality TV show called Total Drama Island. Among them was a charming and handsome contestant named Justin, who had captured the hearts of many with his good looks and charisma.

However, there was one contestant who caught Justin's attention like no other. Her name was Y/N, a strong and independent girl who had joined the show to prove herself and have an adventure. Y/N had always been captivated by Justin's charm, but she never thought he would notice her.

As the competition progressed, Y/N found herself forming a bond with Justin. They would often have deep conversations late at night, sharing their dreams, fears, and aspirations. Justin was drawn to Y/N's intelligence, wit, and genuine personality, while Y/N admired Justin's kindness and ability to make everyone feel special.

Their connection grew stronger with each passing day, and soon, they found themselves falling in love. However, being on Total Drama Island meant facing numerous challenges and obstacles that tested their relationship.

During one particularly grueling challenge, Y/N injured herself, leaving her unable to participate. Justin, who had always been focused on his success, surprised everyone by sacrificing his chances of winning to take care of Y/N. He stayed by her side, nursing her back to health and reminding her that she was more important than any competition.

Their love story became the talk of the island, with other contestants cheering them on and even helping them in secret. Despite the drama and chaos surrounding them, Justin and Y/N remained steadfast in their love for each other.

As the finale approached, Justin and Y/N found themselves as the last two contestants standing. They faced off in a grueling challenge that tested their physical and mental strength. In the end, Y/N emerged victorious, but instead of celebrating her win, she rushed to Justin's side, embracing him tightly.

Total Drama Island had brought them together, but it was their love and support for each other that made their journey worthwhile. They realized that winning the competition was not as important as the bond they had formed.

After the show ended, Justin and Y/N continued their relationship outside the island. They traveled the world together, experiencing new adventures and creating memories that would last a lifetime. Their love story became an inspiration for others, proving that sometimes, the most unexpected connections can lead to the most beautiful relationships.

And so, Justin and Y/N lived happily ever after, their love story forever etched in the incredible journey on Total Drama Island, Justin and Y/N returned to their normal lives. They couldn't deny the strong bond they had formed during the competition, and their love for each other only grew stronger with time.

Justin, with his newfound humility, decided to pursue a career in acting. He realized that his good looks were just a small part of who he was, and he wanted to showcase his talent and versatility on the big screen. Y/N, always supportive of his dreams, encouraged him every step of the way.

Meanwhile, Y/N pursued her passion for environmental conservation. She had always been passionate about protecting the planet and wanted to make a difference. With Justin by her side, she started an organization dedicated to raising awareness about environmental issues and implementing sustainable practices.

Their lives were filled with adventure and love. They traveled to exotic locations, working on various film sets and volunteering for environmental projects. Justin and Y/N became a power couple, using their influence and resources to make a positive impact on the world.

However, their journey wasn't without challenges. The media constantly scrutinized their relationship, trying to find flaws and create drama. But Justin and Y/N remained strong, knowing that their love was genuine and unbreakable.

One day, while on a romantic getaway, Justin surprised Y/N with a heartfelt proposal. With tears of joy streaming down her face, Y/N said yes, and they began planning their dream wedding.

Their wedding day was nothing short of magical. Surrounded by their Total Drama Island friends and loved ones, Justin and Y/N exchanged vows, promising to support and love each other for the rest of their lives. It was a celebration of their journey, their love, and the incredible bond they had formed.

As the years went by, Justin and Y/N continued to thrive in their respective careers. Justin became a renowned actor, known not only for his looks but also for his talent and dedication. Y/N's organization grew, making a significant impact on environmental conservation.

But amidst their busy lives, they always made time for each other. They cherished the simple moments, like cuddling on the couch, cooking together, and taking long walks on the beach. Their love remained the foundation of their lives, grounding them during their success.

Justin and Y/N's story became an inspiration to many, showing that true love can withstand any challenge. They proved that it's possible to find love in unexpected places and that a strong relationship.

So I have a new hyperfixation character and it is The Spot from Spider-Man, and that led to me coming up with a Spidersona, a universe for them, and several side character/villain reimagines (plus my OC I already ship with Doc Ock, killing two birds with one stone here!). And while I don't have anything drawn yet due to my wrist getting injured, I do have a lot written down that I want to share!

-Spidersona Detailed Profile-

Name: Blythe Basile

Alias: Shutterbug

Age: Thirties

Height: An even 5ft

Weight: Classified

Occupation: Fashion photographer

Powers:

Spider-sense, reflexes/agility, wall climbing, major jumping ability, super strength, (aka standard Spidey powers). Also: photographic memory, enhanced vision, a natural webbing released from the fingertips that can't be swung from but can slow down or catch others

Weakness:

Fear of heights, Shutterbug is short, handsome men

Location:

A much, much more fashionable world's New York Garment District, which takes up most of NYC now

Backstory:

An orphan found abandoned on the doorstep of a fashion boutique, Blythe was taken in and adopted by the owners, Marianne and Rainier Basile, who unfortunately both perished in an accident when Blythe was ten. Rainier’s sister Maylis stepped up to take care of them, and she quickly proved to be a kind and caring adoptive parent, sharing with Blythe a love of photography.

Similar to many others, Blythe was an awkward geek in high school and a loner, and what little respect and status they had was gained through their roles on the photography club and as photographer for the yearbook committee. Bullying was common, but despite everything Blythe graduated early.

After graduation it was like they flourished, gaining a mentor in one of the most decorated photographers in the world; LeBene, a former wartime photojournalist turned nature photographer who taught them everything he knew and was almost like a father figure to them. Their entry into the photography world, and LeBene’s care, gave Blythe a sense of confidence, fashion, and style, and they no longer felt awkward and alone anymore. LeBene often told them "Always put people before the art. Use your camera for good." Blythe was overjoyed when LeBene and Aunt Maylis began a romance.

On one of their first solo assignments, Blythe was sent to shoot photos for a "Men of Science" beefcake calendar at a nearby laboratory. In the middle of photographing a lab technician holding a strategically placed folder, there was a sharp stabbing sensation on the back of Blythe's thigh, though they didn't see what caused it. Despite the pain, Blythe continued to work, until collapsing at their studio apartment and sleeping for three days. Still, they did at least manage to get a boyfriend out of the experience, and a foothold in the photography industry.

It didn't take Blythe long to realize they were developing superpowers and they designed and crafted a suit to photograph themselves in for fun. Instead, Blythe wound up saving someone's life, and found that they actually make a pretty good hero. As they started their heroics, they also started to move up in the world, and was hired at a famous fashion magazine. Unfortunately, with the increase in costumed crime and a beginners workload, Blythe and their boyfriend decided to mutually break up, and Blythe attended the wedding of LeBene and Maylis by themself.

The increased pressure at work and on the streets, began to cause Blythe to care less and less about the duty they had willingly taken up. Long story short, one day when Blythe put protecting their camera over stopping a criminal, that criminal happened to run over LeBene, who died in Blythe's arms. From that day forward, Blythe vowed to not only stop crime, but also to only use their camera for good (and fashion). Using their powers and photography skills, Blythe takes down both supervillains and corrupt capitalists.

Personality:

Takes photography very seriously and always has at least one camera within arms reach. Mildly boy (or well, old man) crazy, in that they sure do like getting grabbed by their middle aged enemies an awful lot (though they do always get the upper hand on the bad guys in the end). Blythe still has an incredibly geeky side, and has to hide it while mingling amongst the fashion elite. Hardworking, dedicated, and very good at helping others feel comfortable and safe.

Misc:

Has no idea they were EVER bitten by a spider and would be horrified to find out.

Their boss is J. Jonah Jameson, head of the magazine! He’s tough but fair and considers Blythe to be a good person but thinks Shutterbug is tacky and boring.

By “a more fashionable world”, think like Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure fashion in a golden art deco-inspired city. Very in-your-face style.

Blythe doesn’t like touching things without gloves.

Their favorite camera was LeBene’s, and it is only used on the most special of occasions.

Their studio apartment is actually pretty small and cramped, with the walls covered in photographs, unintentionally making it look like a damn serial killer lives there instead of a superhero.

They’re working on not going heart eyes over their villains, but so far they’re having no success.

Despite being a fashion photographer, Blythe is terrible at telling what they look good in, luckily their best friend, Graham Stacy (a fellow photographer at the magazine), helps them with shopping.

Mostly uses their organic webbing for ease of photography. It doesn’t show up on camera, so it can be very useful.

Typically goes by they/them but is fine with any pronouns and prefers to be called a girlfriend when being dated as opposed to partner/enbyfriend/etc. Being called she/her by citizens whilst in costume just means it’ll be harder for others to connect Shutterbug to Blythe.

Despite their fame, Blythe doesn’t have a social life and spends what little free time they have watching old horror movies and playing video games. They’re still majorly geeky, it’s just usually hidden.

Not nearly as book-smart/scientific as most other Spidey-types, and by far the worst at math in the entire multiverse. Yes, that includes the car. Spider-Mobile can do math better than them.

Drinks an ungodly amount of coffee and caffeine, but doesn’t suffer from it because of a pre-existing mutation the spider had where it could handle caffeine.

Villains:

Doctor Octopus- During an experiment gone wrong, shy and reserved Otto Octavius was forever fused to a set of rose-gold robotic tentacles he created and he’s making it everyone else's problem. He’s very charming and sadly taken, but also very ruthless (with a new god complex) and one of Shutterbug’s biggest and most intelligent foes.

Melusine- An act of corporate sabotage that destroyed her life's work caused Mima Marsh to lose her legs and her career. She turned to crime as a way to get vengeance on those who caused her loss and the world itself. Flies around connected to a very classy mechanical mermaid tail and has robotic flying fish minions. Locked down Doc Ock as her partner fast.

The Spot- Johnny Ohnn was one of the scientists posing for the calendar, and he and Blythe briefly dated until work became too hectic for them both. He was in a lab accident while working on portals and forever changed into a being of portals and turned to a life of crime after losing his job. Blythe thinks they can still work things out. (He’s getting his own section too because he’s a major character)

Electro- An electronica musician in the wrong place at the wrong time, Max Dillon became more electricity than human, and of course turned to a life of crime, but he still makes pretty good music on the side. Tries to not kill anyone, though he’s not always successful. His crimes mostly include breaking into power plants to turn them into giant music machines.

Vulture- After being forced out of the company he created, Adrian Toomes stole an invention that allows him to fly and make life hell for those who planned the hostile takeover. Ironically he’s a kinder person after becoming a criminal and regularly donates to charity. Blythe would let him be if he wasn’t swooping at people on the streets.

Mysterio- Illusionist Quentin Beck lost his stage in Las Vegas to a pop star and decided to try his luck in NYC. Having no luck there either, he decided to put his skills to use in a less legal way. Has an ego even bigger than Doc Ocks. Teams up with Electro a lot and their fights are actually a highlight for citizens.

Lizard- Dr. Curt Connors injected himself with lizard DNA on a dare from his science buddies and transformed into a big lizard monster and roams NYC’s sewers. Still pretty intelligent, he just eats people now and has a lot less morals. Has an ex-wife and son that he still tries to visit once a month, but they’re less than pleased when he tries to make them lizards too.

Kraven The Hunter- Sergei Kravinoff comes from a long line of furriers, but when NYC’s biggest buyer decided to go fur-free, he decided to seek revenge, using skills learned from the other half of his family; notorious big game hunters. As stylish as he is deadly, he hates Shutterbug for always getting in his way, while they’re kinda low key jealous of his style.

Shocker- Herman Schultz is a mercenary with vibro-shock gauntlets who views villainy like his old construction job, very 9-to-5 blue collar. Doesn’t hold a grudge against Shutterbug for foiling his crimes, and is down to team up with others at any time, though few take him up on the offer. A pretty chill guy when he’s off the clock.

White Rabbit- Model and heiress Lorina Dodson was disinherited after a very embarrassing scandal. In a rage, she paid Shocker a ton of cash to get her a ton of rabbit-themed weapons that she uses for criminal mischief and making her parents mad and dressing like a Playboy bunny. Always down to let Shutterbug take a pic or twelve during fights.

-Spot Detailed Profile-

Name: Johnathon “Johnny” Ohnn

Alias: The Spot/Spot

Age: Late 30s-Early 40s

Height: 6’3” (before Spot)/7’ (as Spot)

Weight: 210lbs (before Spot)/Unknown (as Spot)

Occupation: Scientist (before Spot)/Criminal Mad Scientist (as Spot)

Backstory:

The only son of Patty and Albert Ohnn, Johnathon was a shy, awkward kid, who grew into a shy, awkward (and lanky, his growth spurt was very generous) adult but one with an autism diagnosis that explained a lot to him.

After graduating from college, his brilliant mind was quickly snatched up by Alchemax Laboratories, and thrown into a number of projects, proving himself a reliable and efficient member of the team.

Whilst working on a small scale project, Johnathon decided to put himself out there and sign up for a “Men Of Science” calendar that was being done to raise money for a new coffee machine in the break room. He was surprised when he showed up and found out it was a ‘beefcake calendar’.

The photographer shooting the event noticed his discomfort and offered to shoot his page during lunch on a closed set, and he quickly agreed. During that photo-shoot, he felt surprisingly relaxed, confident, and comfortable. Though still the most covered up in his photos, wearing a lab coat and strategically covered boxer-briefs, he was actually proud of how they turned out, and exchanged phone numbers with the photographer, who he learned was named Blythe Basile.

One phone call turned into having lunch together, which turned into dinner, and quickly they started dating. Johnny, as Blythe called him, was experiencing a massive positive boost in confidence and his personality, he even became friendly with his co-workers. But after about a year, things quickly took a turn.

Blythe was hired at their dream job as a fashion photographer for a highly popular magazine, and Johnny’s project (studying and trying to create a teleportation device) was approved by higher ups. As work began to pile up for them both, they agreed to a mutual break-up, at least until things became less hectic, which they did not.

While about to make the breakthrough of his life, and possibly one of the biggest discoveries of all time, a portal opened, which was the plan, but what was not expected was that the Vantablack portal would pull him inside and vanish. He had entered a strange dimension of darkness and light, where he was trapped and studied the unusual properties of the location as best he could.

For three weeks he was gone without a trace, before emerging, transformed and changed by his experiences, in his lab. He was shocked to find no one believed who he was, and he was shunned by everyone he met, losing his job, home, and even his parents were horrified and refused to believe him. He didn’t bother contacting Blythe, as he didn’t want to experience that painful rejection again.

With no other choice, Johnathon, now calling himself The Spot, decided to work at stealing lab equipment from various labs to try and find a way to turn himself back while hopefully keeping his abilities. Unfortunately for him, Shutterbug stands in his way.

Misc:

Has no idea his most hated foe is Blythe and would be horrified to find out.

Not able to access the multiverse, he’s not THAT powerful, he’s more connected to a pocket dimension and anywhere in the one universe he’s from.

Casually dated others before Blythe but never got past second base before.

Like Blythe, his vision was fixed by his transformation. Despite his eyes no longer seeming to exist. He’s never figured out how that works.

Much more of a trypophobic design than most Spots have, with a small cluster of spots typically forming around where one of his eyes used to be, before it forms into one big one and migrates on his face while another cluster starts appearing.

Technically a genius! He just doesn’t have the confidence to assert himself as much as ones like Doc Ock or Melusine.

Would let Blythe put his hair up for him before work, but after they broke up he started leaving it down again.

Gamer boy, puzzle games are usually too easy so he mostly plays FPS games and has ridiculously good aim after years of practice. It’s his main source of stress relief.

The tea to Blythe’s coffee, this Spot has a soft spot for matcha and Darjeeling, but will drink any kind except sweet tea.

Has a bad habit of being condescending and talking down to others but is working on it.

#spidersona #spidersona oc #lite work #the spot #johnathon ohnn #blythe basile #its fun taking concepts from Spider-Man and turning them around into something different!#I HAVE a design planned for Shutterbug/Blythe but its only a concept made on gaia online until I can draw my interpretation #when my wrist heals #selfship #not tagging every character because dang thats a lot #should tag these two though since they're included #melusine #otto

tehehehehehe i gave in...

introducing the brand new ask blog! themed around the AMAZING fnaf fangame playtime with percy! i have no idea what to call this au, so feel free to make suggestions.

"Say hello to your new best friend, the Pal Percy, created by Paltronics Co! With a click of a button and a purchase on our official website, you can have YOUR OWN new best pal! They'll love you no matter what, and will always be by your side. With our incredibly advanced ai, they're capable of holding incredibly accurate conversations, and even feeling and understanding emotions! The screen in their chest has many uses, including the ability to play games and display text! Sizes, genders, and personalities may vary depending on the model. Paltronics is NOT liable for any damages caused. Order now, and get your NEW BEST FRIEND sent right to your door! Only $299.99."

It was a good while after Percy's Playhouse was destroyed. The animatronics had all been abandoned by the people who had bought them, and now resided in a run-down storage facility not that far away. A perfect surprise to await any unsuspecting adventures who liked to explore ruined areas.

Around the same time, a small handful of people reported getting strange, massive packages delivered to their door apparently sent by 'Paltronics Co' themselves. How odd... Whatever could be inside? Follow our new protagonist (yes, still named Bee because I am incredibly unoriginal with character names) and her new friends on whatever insane adventures may await!

ASK BLOG OFFICIALLY OPEN!!

and here are the characters who will be our stars! and a bit of au info.

Percy Poodle! The fluffball himself. A big goofball who loves to play and have fun, but has become quiet and somewhat reserved after being abandoned.

The Playful Poodles! Tim, Tat, and Tot. Headcanonned to be like Percy's annoying younger siblings. After the events of the game, they've become less of pains in the asses and now kind of stick around Percy a lot.

Charlie the Clown Cat! The playful goober himself! Still tells jokes and goofs off, but does so to cheer up his friends. He craves the spotlight even more than before, craving the attention he was rejected in the storage facility.

Mother Moose! Adapted to be more caring of EVERYONE she comes across. She's the reason the animatronics didn't get ruined at all in that storage facility. She can bake very well, and does everything in her power to make everyone happy and keep them safe.

Farmer Felix the Ferret! Still as hard-working as ever, but he lost his "Simon Says" abilities. Now his eyes are permanently the four colors they were able to change into before. Strong, like the silent "protector" of the group, like Mother Moose is the motherly caretaker.

Rowen the Rat. Still as sassy and irritable as he was before, but hangs more around the group now. Still dislikes Felix, for obvious reasons, but is more drawn to the group than before due to how caring they all are no matter what. Bitter, but seems to just want to be close to someone.

Pal! The contents of one of the large, mysterious packages sent by Paltronics Co. After Bee stupidly powered him on, he hadn't left her side, claiming to be her best friend. She doesn't really mind it much, though is noticing that he behaves strangely at times.

Bee! The "protagonist". A sassy, headstrong seventeen year old who lives on her own- at least until Pal came along. He also persuaded her to explore the abandoned storage facility- so now her house is full of animatronics.

#playtime with percy #ask blog #self insert au #asks are open #oc #announcement sorta?#yes we've redesigned- sorry pizza tower fans #maybe i'll relocate the previous ask blog

Bond of the Beasts Chapter 4

The sun outside was a welcome change of pace after the rainy night they had before. Cookie patiently waited for Hattie and Bow to arrive downstairs. She had sent the two girls to the bathroom to clean up before they'd leave to head into town to go clothes shopping. Her attention got drawn away from the squirrel in a nearby tree that she had been watching out of the window, and focused on the DJ, whose car was turning into the driveway. The basilisk looked slightly worn out, yet he seemed to be in a decent mood as she could hear him hum a tune to himself through the slightly open window. The DJ opened the door and almost got it slammed back in his face as Bow- and Hat Kid came running down the stairs, both looking happy and upbeat. “What's going on here?” The question made both kids stopped dead in their tracks and turned back to him.

“Were going clothes shopping!” Bow Kid squealed while bouncing up and down. Hattie looked confused, not recognizing the man. The young sorceress turned to Bow to ask who the stranger was, but she was beat to the punch as the dark skinned man himself answered her question.

“I don't think we got introduced yet, my name is DJ Grooves.” He struck a flashy pose and looked at Hattie who seemed to find the pose funny.

“My name is Hattie, I'm a sorceress...well, I'm training to be a proper one.” Hattie found the man quite approachable, she wondered if he just pretended to be nice for a moment, but that thought left her mind quickly as she noticed that Bow wasn't afraid of him, her colors were still yellow, not a hint of the dreaded purple of fear and anxiety.

“Well, I'm sure that you'll be able to become a powerful one if you put your mind to it.” He gave a wink before looking at Cookie who got dragged into the hallway by an impatient Bow Kid. “I heard your going clothes shopping with the girls.” He crossed his arms.

Cookie took it as him reminding her that it was still dangerous outside, that they had to wait a few days for the uproar that Hattie's magic surge caused to die down. “I know that it's still dangerous outside, that it would likely be better to wait a bit for all of this to die down a bit, but...look at them. The clothes are getting to small for them, it must be getting uncomfortable.” She pointed at the two sisters who looked down on themselves.

The DJ made a dismissive gesture. “That's not what I meant, darling. You're going clothes shopping with the kids...and didn't invite ME!” He feigned to be hurt by his exclusion.

Cookie fumbled with the small pendant of her necklace, it looked like a leaping cat, which seemed to catch the interest of Bow Kid. “I thought you'd be tired after a long night of work and wanted to rest, so I figured it would be the easiest to go out with them alone.” Bow looked like she tried hard to contain her excitement and struggle to not just run outside which caused the DJ to turn back around and walk onto the small pathway and dirt road by the house.

Cookie always preferred to create the house for them just outside the outskirts of a town, it made it easier to stay hidden, the fewer interactions they had with humans, the better...It was a secluded and lonely life, but it was better than being on the radar of monster hunters and researchers.

“Come on, then, sleep can wait. We need to make sure these two get proper clothes and get out of those...washed out dirt rags.” He unlocked his red car, it seemed to be an expensive, but functional SUV. It had a lot of space, enough to fit even four people on the backseats comfortably.

The two girls rushed by him and couldn't wait to get inside. Bow Kid hesitated for a moment. “We're...gonna sit...on the backseats, right?” She asked with uncertainty. The DJ was about to ask the little changeling where else she would sit...and decided that it would be best not to ask, the answer would likely be unpleasant for the both of them, so instead he just nodded.

“Hold on a moment, Bow, I got something for you.” Cookie gave Bow Kid a small glass of strange looking purple liquid. When the girl looked up at her with a questioning glance, Cookie elaborated. “This is just a small potion to keep you from changing colors, I know you struggle to control it, sweetie, so I thought it prudent to make this for you. It smells a lot worse than it tastes, trust me.” Bow Kid put her tongue out in disgust at the smell, but had to agree that it was smart to make sure that her colors wouldn't change in public. “It will also prevent your little horns and tail from manifesting” She still looked at Cookie as if to figure out whether or not the red-haired witch was really telling the truth, but considering that she had kept her word so far, Bow decided to put her faith in her and drink the strange concoction. Oddly enough, it tasted like minty toothpaste, not THAT terrible. “It will wear off after around 10 hours, plenty of time to go shopping.” Bow looked down and found that her skin had changed back to her normal brown tone, it appeared that the potion was already in effect.

They entered the car after that, Hattie was already inside playing with the window, making it go up and down over and over again. “Put your seat belt on, Hattie, we can actually be safe while riding in a car this time.” Bow Kid put her seat belt on and happily looked out the window while Hattie rolled her eyes and did the same.

Cookie gave a concerned look to Grooves who sat down in the driver seat with a joyful smile. “Are you sure that you'll be alright?” He made a dismissive gesture.

“You worry to much, darling, I'm fine.” He took one glance back at the two excited kids before they left to go into town. The ride there was fairly quiet as both girls just watched the scenery go by, completely enticed by what they saw. While the atmosphere on the backseats was jolly and upbeat, the same couldn't be said about the front, the two adults wore rather sad expressions as the car ride went on. In a way it was nice to see the two so happy...on the other hand, it was sad to see two kids so happy over something as mundane as the landscape outside, something most don't really pay attention to, it only showed just how little the people that looked after them before cared about them.

DJ Grooves stopped the car on the parking lot of the big shopping mall, which thankfully was quite empty due to it being around noon on a workday. Hattie and Bow looked up at the huge building that had a bright neon sign in the front that welcomed customers on the right side while people exited the building form the left door. “Wow...this building looks awesome!” Hattie couldn't wait and headed inside and was shortly followed by her sister who did the same. “I don't even know where we should go to first.”

It appeared that Bow had already decided where they'd go as she made her way to a store that had a wide array of summer clothes in window, the others followed her. “Can we pick out whatever we want?” Bow Kid turned around to ask that question and Cookie was about to tell her that they had a limited budget, but was interrupted by the booming voice of the DJ.

“Of course, darling, pick out what you think suits you best.” This resulted in the changeling practically running from section to section, picking out various accessoires and clothes. Hattie, meanwhile, seemed to take her time in picking out something she liked...at least when it came to headgear, she had already picked out a yellow cloak, a purple tunic and white pants, and a pair of simple brown boots. She seemed to be unable to choose between a purple top hat and one that was rather reminiscent of a witch's hat, which she ultimately chose.

“Do I look like a proper sorceress now?” Hattie asked Cookie who looked around nervously for a moment to make sure no one overheard the conversation. A woman with heterochromic eyes looked over at them from an aisle away, she picked out a black jacket and side eyed the two.

“Yeah, you look great, sweetie, it will be a great costume for Halloween.” She whispered a bit closer to Hattie, using adjusting her hat as an alibi to lower onto her level, so the woman wouldn't hear them. “You can't say that you're a sorceress in public, Hattie, and you can't using magic either, sweetie. I know it's hard, but we'll be in danger otherwise.”

The young girl looked shocked for a moment, having not quite realized her blunder at the time, but she understood why. If the people here knew what she was, it could be that they'll contact the people that held Bow and her in captivity for so long. “I'm sorry. I'll be more careful.” While Hat Kid and Cookie were busy talking, the DJ was waiting for Bow to finish changing in the fitting room.

Bow pulled the curtains aside, twirled and struck a pose. “Ta-da!” Bow had picked out a green coat with a white shirt underneath, a blue skirt with a matching blue bow and black boots to round it off.

“Stunning, darling, simply stunning!” DJ Grooves applauded while Cookie and Hattie walked over to them.

Hattie looked impressed with what Bow had picked out and was even a bit jealous, but she liked what she picked out still, it was comfy and easy to wear. “Looks great!” She complimented Bow who beamed at her, which made the blue-eyed girl smile in return. She couldn't even remember the last time she had seen Bow smile like that...if she had ever even seen her smile so brightly. Hattie turned around to look at Cookie and DJ Grooves who just gave them happy expressions, they appeared almost relieved.

“Where do we go to now?” Bow asked, still smiling and grabbing Hattie's hand squeezing it.

The two adults thought it over for a moment until the DJ had an idea. “How about we find some decorations for your rooms? YOU may look flashy and stunning now, but your rooms are still plain and simple-” He turned his head to Cookie with a slightly apologetic expression. “-No offense, Cookie.”

“None taken, I simply didn't know what they liked best...and using too much magic in a day is pretty draining, so I didn't furnish the rooms more.” Cookie explained while they left the clothing store and headed over to “Schöner Wohnen” a furnishing store at the end of the mall.

As they entered the sizable store, both kids looked around as if they had entered a wonderland of décor, ranging from tacky plastic animal figurines to classic pots and vases, all the way to the latest trends in interior design. The two adults split up, each supervising one kid, as the two sisters split up and headed into different sections of the store.

Hattie was immediately drawn to the various plushies on display, showing interest in a shark plushie that she eyed with curiosity. She picked it up by the fin on its back and hugged it. “I'm gonna call you Dale.” Cookie watched as the girl picked out another plushie, a dolphin one. “Can I get this one for Bow?” Hattie asked Cookie who gave her a nod.

“Of course, sweetie.” She'd need to safe up some money again after this, but the near euphoric expressions on her new young family members made it all the more worth it.

“I'm gonna call this one David!” She carried the two soft animals with pride and joined up with Bow. Her sister seemed to have picked up a small lava lamp, a colorful vase, and a small sewing kit. “Nice things, Bow...-” She eyed the sewing kit. “Are you gonna knit a new scarf with that.” She giggled a bit.

“No, silly, I picked it out for you. I thought that maybe you could learn how to make those dolls. I know you like them.” Bow held the kit out for Hattie who now felt a bit bad for having picked out a, in her opinion, inferior gift. Nevertheless, the young sorceress accepted the gift and hugged her sister.

“Thanks, Bow, I have a gift for you too, but...it's only a funny plushie I found.” The blue-eyed girl gave the changeling the plushie, not expecting the other to cry in happiness upon receiving it. Hat Kid took Bow Kid's hand and smiled, giving her another hug. The two adults gave the girls a moment to gather themselves before they approached.

Cookie spoke in a soft tone and bent down to their level, considering the small stature of the woman, she didn't have to bent down all that much. “Are you two ready to go?” Both nodded and the four headed to check out. As they exited the store, and were about to head home, the basilisk had an idea.

“How about some ice cream before we leave?” That caught the attention of the young changeling and sorceress immediately, and caused both to spin around to face him with sparkling eyes, and wide smiles.

“Ice cream!” Both yelled enthusiastically, while Cookie shook her head at him, but smiled.

“Are you trying to become their favorite guardian? You'll spoil them rotten.” She whispered in an amused tone which caused the DJ to chuckle.

“Maybe I am. The two darlings deserve a nice break from the harshness of our situation, there is nothing wrong with a day of fun and leisure is there?-” He gave a wink that the witch couldn't see because of his toned shades that made it impossible to see his eyes. “-Besides, I was trying to cheer them up after the scare that Conductor gave poor Bow, that old wereowl can be so brash and mean sometimes.” He shook his head.

Cookie responded with a small laugh. “You're only two years younger than him, you know. I don't think he was trying to be mean, he got startled by Bow's sudden attack and...you know how hot-headed he is. You didn't see it, but he felt bad about what he did.” It eased the small amount of contempt the DJ Grooves felt for the small man, which was evident as he relaxed his posture. They had to cut their little conversation short, due to the sisters rushing by them as they bolted to the ice cream parlor.

Bow Kid looked exceedingly happy with her simple ice cream cone consisting of one scoop of vanilla and one of chocolate, Hat Kid looked equally as ecstatic with her more...exotic blend, one scoop of mint and one of hazelnut made up her cone. “Thank you! We never had ice cream before, this day was so awesome!” Hattie skipped ahead happily and turned her head to thank Cookie and the DJ as they slowly returned to the parking lot.

“Yeah, this was the best day I've ever had!” Bow exclaimed while she and Hattie climbed back into the backseats of the car. Cookie helped the DJ place the procured items into the trunk of the car, both feeling like they did something good today.

Goncharov references in BIONICLE

With people on here finally coming around to the cinematic masterpiece that is Goncharov (1973, dir. Marton Scorsese) I wanted to discuss how the film's influence actually weaved its way into Bionicle, because there are actually a TON of niche references to it, especially in the Piraka in the Voya Nui arc.

Little known fact, while Goncharov (1973) had an extremely limited release in the U.S., it actually saw a small theatrical release in Denmark due to different film distribution laws there enabling a few screenings where it became a cult classic. Because of this, many of the people working in Lego actually saw the movie and were huge fans, particularly several members of the story team. This included Bionicle author Greg Farshtey, who despite being American was actually shown the film by another Bionicle team member while on a business trip to Billund, Denmark in 2005. Greg was immediately enamored by the brilliant storytelling, and he and a few other team members decided to incorperate references to it in the 2006 Voya Nui arc that they were writing at the time. And BOY does it show.

Now obviously you've got the surface level references, such as Thok's Ice-Gun/Pick weapon being a reference to Ice Pick Joe.

(Ice Pick Joe art by @sleepymccoy)

But there's also much deeper parallels in the story beats and themes. So much of the backstory of the Piraka feels like an attempt to fill in the deliberately ambiguous details of the characters' pasts.

Goncharov and Katya coming from a life of both crime and oppression only to flee to a new land in order to make a name for themselves in a criminal empire is paralleled by how the Piraka fled to Voya Nui to form their own criminal gang after breaking off from the Dark Hunters.

The short flashback sequences where Kayta talks about her past, her abusive father is always framed in shadow, he is The Shadowed One.

Hakann and Thok's dynamic is lifted directly from Goncharov and Andrey, how they schemed to share power together, and were drawn to each other, but inevitably tore each other apart through betrayal.

Meanwhile, Vezok is Katya to Hakann's Goncharov. Hakkan and Vezok arrived in the Dark Hunter's together, much as Goncharov and Katya arrived in Naples together. And despite the underlying resentment that fueled their relationship, they are undeniably bound to each other. One of the most brilliantly niche references was when Hakann hit Vezok with the Spear of Fusion, which result in him being split apart to form Vezon. This is almost certainly a reference to the conversation between Katya and Sofia where Katya describes a fight she had with Goncharov when they first were traveling to Napels where she says "his words were like spear that pierced me, split me in two, and I haven't felt whole since. I sometimes wonder where the part of me I left behind went, and if she found happiness". It is implied that Katya's more violent tendencies became more apparent after this, much like Vezok became much more angry and violent after being split from Vezon.

Anyways these are just some of the subtle references to Goncharov in Bionicle. One masterpiece influences another, as is the way with art.

(I've really loved this collective storytelling meme we've made here. Making up references and analysis to something we're all just making up satisfies both the analytical and little shit parts of me. The Goncharov references are fake, but the Bionicle ones are Real!)

Rain World: Monsoon - Influence Of Beliefs(IOB)

Hey everyone! It's been a while! Apologies for the delay since my first announcement, I'll do my best to keep things up to date. So, in my previous(and first ever) post, I said I was going to present my iterators. So, let's take a look at our first iterator, Infuence Of Beliefs. PART I - INTRODUCTION One of the oldest among his local group, Beliefs's creation happened during a disagreement between ancients with different beliefs(ironically), which led to a war between both sides, with iterators in that era being created as weapons rather than machines made to solve problems. Due to having enough resistance, and to having a bit of luck, he survived the war. PART II - THE PATH AHEAD A while after that, the ancients who won the war began a journey, leaded by Sliver Of Straw and Influence Of Beliefs(which actually were best friends) in order to find a solution for the Great Problem. With both having already a decent knowledge, aswell as intuition and a great array of technology avaible to themselves, they took the lead of the Sliverists. Both were equally confident to find a better way out of that world, at any costs. Due to extreme respect to Sliver, IOB let the group be named after her. Despite both being really advanced, he always saw her as someone superior to him. And, with hopes that this would make him forget about the mayhem he was created from, decided to partake on helping her. PART III - HESITATION However, as time passed, Beliefs started to realize how pointless it was. He didn't want it to end like that. Why it all had to go off like this? He admitted he was a little afraid of what he could meet upon entering the other side, but unlike him, Sliver was optimistic, and eager to find the solution, thinking it could end up well. When they finally found a solution, the ancients who seemed to care so much about them and idolize them, all vanished. Both were then left alone. A little heartbroken, his friend decided to isolate herself from all. All but him. He decided to console her after all of this, and deemed the solution as something dangerous. During his time, he loosened up, and began to feel more attached to Sliver. Attempts were made to encourage her to give up on finding a solution, and he tried to convince her that living was a better option. PART IV - DiVERGENCE But Sliver refused. She had gone too far, and she did not want to stop there. She kept on working, fending Beliefs away for a bit. He grew more and more concerned of her, but didn't want to repress her or sound rude, so he just let her do what she wanted. He was trying to prepare himself for the worst. He did not want to ascend, but he did not want Sliver to go. Unfortunately, by the time he finally built up the courage to speak to her, she was already gone. She succeeded, and left a pearl behind for him. Sunken in despair, Beliefs entered a panic attack, nearly making himself collapse because of it. He was filled with regret. PART V - DELUSION He knew he couldn't save Sliver, as she was already dead, but he knew he could save the other iterators. It wasn't too late. Driven by his erratic thoughts, he began to mass create supersoldier units to do his bidding, and crafted many dangerous weapons in order to increase his own (fire)power. Ascension was too dangerous, as you never knew where you could end up on. It was too good to be true. Therefore, he deemed that turning the world into a realm of echos would be safer, as echos are immortal, and can be seen by the ones around them, therefore there's no risk on turning into a echo. Or so he thought. CREDITS TO FRIENDS FOR THE ART!! Beliefs drawn by @covchapman and @sweetaru1 ! The Sinner(will likely explain more about them in a future post btw) drawn by @localceilingdevil ! Expect more of those soon!

Arlo family lore plspls its beneficial to my health

OKAY SO

so i got another ask specifically about [REDACTED] so im gonna talk abt that in a separate ask

BUT i will tell u abt my ocs for arlos fam (almost exclusively on his dads/valeries side, havent thought abt mom much) and general stuff for them and their relationships w eachother and arlo specifically

OKAY SO

i gave Arlo four older siblings because why the hell not and i can (i will get to the parents later)

also while im thinking abt it, im unsure abt Arlo's last name but im thinking Kingston right now

OKAY ANYWAY

also i just wanna say that when made character names i usually just smash sound together until i find something i like and hope it isnt a slur in another language

so what im saying is none of the names have any relevance or importance i just like their sounds and how they look

the first oc is Mammi (pronounced like ma'am-ee)

hes the oldest of the five of them, as of current uno time hes 25

he/him

amab cismasc

haven't decided sexuality. probably gay bc im gay and i self project too much

anyway he currently works with the authorities and is in a relatively high ranking position

but surprise surprise hes a spy for [ERROR]

(a secret organization :) also has a whole Thing that would require a separate post. a lot of new characters and also some world building. plus it also kind of plays into my bod au/rei fic)

but unfortunately the authorities are all fucking idiots and no one would even think of suspecting him

Valeire is the only one who does (she basically Knows) bc their father (her brother) was against a lot of the things the authorities did

but she has absolutely no proof so she cant do anything :)

fun fact Mammi and the entirety of Arlo's sibling except for Arlo himself all Loathe Valerie

2 of them want her dead

one would actively make an attempt on her life themselves if they ever saw her again

pst psst Mammi is the former

anyway Mammi is Tall (TM)

atm his height is fluctuating between 6'5 and 6'6 bc i cant choose

i just think itd be hysterical if Arlo's entire family on his dad's side were all giants

speaking of that let me take this time to tell you that Arlo is the youngest in his family aside from his mom and Valerie because i thought it'd be really funny

bc Mammi is in the authorities he often wears a suit and let me tell you this man looks fine as hell

not all men can work a suit but this one can

i still havent drawn any of the siblings except for a bit of the next one so my visuals of them are all p vague and could absolutely change but as of now

Mammi has long straight blond hair that roughly reaches his waist

its usually in a low ponytail

he has gold eyes :)

not sure what i want his ability to be yet (obviously a shield variant but what exactly) or how powerful

now for the lovely sister of the family

so the next one is Luss (pronounced how it's spelled)

shes 24 :)

she/her pronouns trans woman

6'4

lesbian

a model who travels quite a lot

long curly hair and gold eyes

always wearing red lipstick

a bit mischievous

her ability is... well its honestly kind of useless on its own

she can make shields that are full orbs but theyre only about the size of a fist

she did find out that they hurt if u throw them at ppl tho, esp if u put stuff in them

not sure what level yet. maybe a flat 6.0 . or maybe even like a 5.9 if i wanna get angsty and make like her family disappointed in her for not being a god tier or smth

very caring about her family

very forgiving person to a fault

strongly believes in second chances

Luss is the closest to Mammi

but she doesn't really feel like she has anyone close to her

(which ends up being a huge bonding point between her and Arlo)

tries her best to keep their family together but it's pretty futile

tries to be optimistic and cheerful and such but it's all an act

would do anything for her family, especially her siblings

sees herself a lot in Arlo for what little she's seen of him

and then we have the twins

as stated above, theyre twins

the older one is Sade, and Kallo is idk like two mins younger or smth

theyre both 21

Sade uses they/them pronouns and is nonbinary

Kallo uses he/they and like. he knows he's masculine but he isnt like a man or male

hes keeping his gender unlabeled but sometimes says its homeboy bc he thinks its funny

tbh im not sure what assigned gender at birth i want either of them to be so im just not gonna choose 🤷

both are 6'4 1/2 or sth

the twins are very separated from the rest of the family they want nothing to do w them

they both dont like Mammi

and hate Valerie

Sade wants her dead and if Kallo ever saw her again he'd lunge

they tolerate Luss and don't dislike her but it's not their favorite to be around her

they don't have any feelings towards Arlo

Sade is a fashion designer and occasionally works with Luss, occasionally

Kallo is a mechanic

originally i had him as a surfer dude but i decided not to

the twins live a long long way away from Wellston and the rest of the family and have no intention of ever going back

theyre both closest to eachother obviously

they both have a lot of trust issues (all of them do) and only really trust eachother

again not sure about abilities

might want Kallo to have some variation of his mom's rather than their dads tho, or maybe a combo of both

i think ill keep Sade w a shield variant

also dk abt sexuality 🤷

i feel like at least one of them would be aro or ace tho. maybe like one is aro and the other is ace lol

ok so now that im done w the siblings

mr dad man's name is Vickaius. hes Valerie's brother. not sure if i want him to be older or younger.

he has long yellow hair (usually up in a pony tail) and gold eyes

yes im terrible and am making him an attractive dilf you cant stop me i have no self control

if it makes u feel any better i'll probably make the mom a milf too

anyway

i kinda wanna give him a scar or two and/or an eyepatch

def a god tier. some type of shield ability. i think i want him to be like a 7.1

he/him or he/she not sure what i want

tbh probably bisexual but thinks he's straight for whatever reason

6'5-7 or smth

fun fact he's currently in jail :)

the moms name is Ariella and she has curly hair and blue eyes. im not sure if i want her to have blonde or brown hair

i dont have much to say abt her tbh. not bc i dont care abt her but like. in my arlo fam plot while she is relevant and important she isnt like. you dont need to know about her. if that makes sense

i do know that i want her to be exactly a whole foot shorter than Vickaius bc i think its hilarious

context for post: arlo hcs

other related stuff: [REDACTED]

Whiteness, Power, and Morality on the Andor Show

I read @gffa‘s recent post on the ISB, the banality of evil, and the color symbolism of their soullessness, and it is on point. But I have something more to say, which I am writing as a separate post rather than a reblog in the interest of not derailing that post. Namely, the highly appropriate use of white to symbolize power, privilege, and morality--or the lack thereof.

If you don’t know by this point that Western countries and their histories have a serious race problem...I don’t know what to tell you. Slavery, colonialism, and racism have left a severe, pervasive mark that has persisted even to this day. While the Andor show exists in a fictional reality, it has “leaned on the fourth wall” several times already regarding these issues, especially with its lead of color (as @queen-breha-organa has pointed out). Cassian/Kassa is from the dark-skinned Kenari tribe (which was attacked just for existing on land the white invaders wanted to strip-mine for themselves--really, how much more obvious can you get?), and these features are repeatedly brought up when the Corpos (i.e., cops) are pursuing him. He was taken away from his people by a (admittedly well-intentioned) white woman. And--as I rather embarrassingly missed on first viewing--he was asked if he had swam to a place he wasn’t supposed to be. Andor is a political show, no doubt about it.

Star Wars has always been political. Prior installments have sent mixed messages due to latent prejudice and laziness. Even when they did get the conscious messaging right, the symbolism was...not ideal. Admittedly with some exceptions, such as the white-clad stormtroopers and Luke and Leia’s outfits in ROTJ, we generally see white associated with goodness and black representing evil. Just look at this poster of Luke and Leia versus their Sithly father (and, later, the Emperor):

When Han is a smuggler being drawn into the Rebellion, he wears a white shirt under his black vest as he’s a good person at heart and that side of him is going to win out in the end. So too with Luke facing his father in ROTJ. The symbolism is even explicitly codified in the “Light” and “Dark” sides of the Force! Now, this is a trope that well predates systemic racism, so I’m not necessarily faulting Lucas for (broadly) falling into it. But in our historical context, and the messages Lucas wanted to convey about standing up to oppression, he should have at least thought more critically about it.

Fortunately, that’s exactly what the creators of Andor appear to have done! On this show, made by and for marginalized people, the resistance lives and works in shades of brown and black while power is cloaked in white. Just compare this shot:

to this:

and this:

The inclusion of that last shot may be puzzling at first. The ISB are obviously powerful and evil, the oppressors of our black and brown protagonists; @gffa pointed out how the cold white symbolizes their soulless detachment from their own bloodshed. Mon Mothma, on the other hand, wears a warm white...but it’s still white. She is the kinder face of power and privilege--she seems to truly care for the downtrodden of the galaxy and risks herself to support the Rebellion--but she is still a wealthy, Core-world, human politician. Just look at her in the art gallery with Luthen:

In this scene, the wealthy Core worlders (including Mon’s own husband) are collecting and displaying artifacts from various different planets in their own museum. Chandrila having an “interesting history” is putting it kindly, according to Mon, and the comics give it a white aesthetic much like Coruscant’s own upper levels where the wealthy and powerful live. Does this perhaps remind you of anything? My money is on Chandrila having an imperial past. (And perhaps my own bias is clouding my judgment, but Alderaan is also a wealthy, largely human Core world with royalty and a white aesthetic. Who’s to say the same doesn’t apply to them?)

Now, does this make Mon Mothma and the other “respectable” rebels (like Bail Organa) evil? No. Individual planetary empires are no more justified than the Galactic Empire and (if real colonial empires are anything to go by) most likely committed several crimes against sentients. But we see that here and now these senators (who did not choose their ancestry) are at least trying to do the right thing, which is a world apart from the oppression by design wrought by Palpatine and his cronies. However, because of that past and the privilege they inherited, they still have some work to do before they can assume their proper place in the freedom struggle. Just look at Mon and Luthen again:

Mon is visually out of place here. We see that while wealthy collectors of other people’s artifacts gather in the white museum room, the back room where the actual work of plotting rebellion is done--and Luthen with it--presents dark shades and low lighting. Mon Mothma is still dressed in white as she plans how to use her place within the system to the best of her ability. Even as she talks of supporting outside groups like Luthen’s, we see in the trailer that she fears going to war. But the contrast is jarring, as this can’t last forever. We know that the Imperial Senate, “the last remnants of the Old Republic,” will be swept away in a few short years. Even while it still exists, its power is only nominal; the system is designed to prevent any possibility of real positive change from within. Thus, working outside the system--waging war--is the only option. Eventually, (former) Senator Mothma will have to step up and lead a military Alliance to Restore the Republic; while the New Republic’s fate is as sealed as Cassian Andor’s own, in large part due to Mothma’s naivete about the threat posed by the First Order, I do hope we can see some character development on the show.

Will she step out of her white by the final episode? I don’t know. Wearing dark brown or black would certainly symbolize a shift in thinking. But as sympathetic as she is to the plight of the galaxy’s downtrodden, she lacks real empathy. I don’t have a screenshot for it, but as @my-last-brain-cell-is-socrates and @a-sassination have both pointed out, she snapped at her housekeeper when the actual Problem Character was her husband. Yes, she was under a lot of stress, but there’s definitely a class dynamic at play there too. Even while consciously trying to end structures of oppression, she is unconsciously reinforcing them. It’s whiteness at work, just as in the ISB elite. Even without evil, power used incorrectly can still cause damage. And that’s something that all privileged people need to watch out for. Skin (or wealth, or other forms of privilege) can’t be shed as an outfit can, so the learning is lifelong, and we will never be able to substitute for marginalized self-advocates. But that doesn’t mean our efforts are hopeless. Allies have a role to play as sidekicks, doing the work that the self-advocate heroes ask of us without hogging the spotlight. Their educational, representative work--such as the Andor show--deserves to be spotlighted.

Characters: Mairon x OC

Warnings: slight angst

(Also, the lovely people from the SWG server might have inspired me more than was good for either one of us, anon, because they were so sweet and helpful and hence, my original plan of writing some 100 words about this might have...turned into a full ficlet...sorry)

She – her name would by now be lost in the sands of time or the dark crevices of the marring – had seen him first in a world still in becoming and he had defied words and melody by his sheer glory.

In those early days, they had still called him Mairon but – through the ages – he would wear many names like mere robes to be cast off when worn or stained, whereas she would lose the only she had ever claimed as her own; giving up things willingly was in her nature after all.

No-one could escape their destiny and hers was so vague and seemingly inconsequential that being forgotten seemed inevitable; she didn’t mind it though for she knew that everything needed a background and a base to even be visible.

Her function was to be that backbone of patience and belief that held all others aloft and made them shine.

While her brothers – mighty and as beloved as they were feared – had squabbled amongst themselves, she’d wandered around the still young realm, drawn to the creative powers like a moth to a flame.

While everything had still been thriving, there had been very little for her to do as her heart’s desire and only might was unwavering trust in the face of defeat; her brothers’ sisters in strange and unforeseen ways, she had utter faith in both of them and believed that their respective ambitions would come to fruition and complement each other.

Hitherto, the limitations of her own power and influence had been an absence of creation, a mere shadow, a void as passive as she was; it had only been upon meeting this disciple of Aulë and being cowed by the radiance of his presence that she’d understood how regrettably lacking she really was.

Mairon was a masterful being – skilled, organised, and fair – with a sharp smile and a yet sharper mind, and before she had been able to but pursue that thought, blown away by the winds of her brother, she had found herself helplessly enthralled by the pulsating energy and promise emanating from this creature.

By rights, he should have acted reverentially towards her but all she had been able to discern was an indomitable desire to unravel and rethread the natural order of things for them to make sense to him, and, evidently, she couldn’t help relenting and pouring herself into his vision, she never had had the strength for that.

She would follow him around – devoted and hopeful still – in hopes that he’d look upon her and find her adequate; steadfast but blurry around the edges, she would have been raw material for him to twist and mould as it pleased him.

Cutting and slightly haughty smiles were all that she had ever gotten from him though and – in the end – he’d followed her brother, Melkor, without casting any lingering glances into her direction. A genius such as his always needed a source of power – be it chaos to put into order or fury to hammer into a blade – and that was when she’d truly understood how impuissant she was.

Until this moment, she had never resented her brothers for being so formidable; she had been content to live in their shadow and do their bidding if needed but – in that second where all her most cherished dreams had been offered to a seemingly indifferent Melkor – a small flicker of hate had rippled across the still waters of the well of loyalty that was her soul, effectively poisoning it for all the eons to come.

Much later, she sought him out once more, flitting like a wraith across the scarred land she still envisioned healed and hale, while her treacherous brother was confined under the watchful eyes of the other mighty, self-important Powers.

Surely, he would now recognise how wrong he had been in choosing Melkor over her; finally, her patient confidence would be rewarded, and she would be granted what she deserved – it was so very little she asked for, wasn’t it? – and the whole creation would be better for it.

She pleaded, she charmed as well as she could, she gave him her fondest, most brilliant smiles but it was all for naught in the end.

His interest – flaring like a wildfire in those deep eyes – abated almost instantly when he understood that it was selfish longing that brought her all this way rather than a much-awaited message from his master.

He would have treated her with honour had she been a messenger, but – as a supplicant inspired by the need of her own heart – she was cast out of his dark fortress like an unwanted beggar.

“I love you,” she cried in a voice barely above the sigh of the wind or the crunching of feet on fresh-fallen snow, “I have always loved you!”

Gorthaur’s fair brow darkened in confusion before – and this was so much worse – his face smoothed into the gentle, expressionless mien of a butcher about to put the blade to a beast’s throat.

“That’s a pity,” he sighed, “for it means nothing to me. Now run home to your brothers and only return if you have something to tell me that actually is of any interest to me.”

If only he had raged or heaped insults over her bent head, she thought bitterly, she might have fought back, but – as soon as she had spoken those fateful words – she had known herself that it was too late already and that her most intimate and desperate emotions were not even worth a reaction beyond studied and bored politeness to the one she adored so.

And so, she waited, trusting still that what was rent should be mended and what was lost should be restored eventually; if necessary, she’d linger thus – suspended in agony – until the world was torn asunder and made anew and time itself started afresh. Next time, she told herself with that quiet confidence that was her gift, she’d turn the tide.

Dearest anon, I am shite at world building 🙈 and I am haunted by the things I've read, so I am very very very sorry if this is not living up to your expectation; I've given it my best shot <3

Lots of love from me :D
