#my headcanon before this was that they would adopt a kid like Ryan down the line

[spotinthespiral]

I meant to post this like 6 hours ago but the file goofed 👀

Anyways, here's roughs of Captain Ironside and Young Jack! (As always, ramble below the cut!)

Like I said, these are rough designs for them! Ryan's only on lvl like, 36, and Young Jack is literally an npc I hyperfixated on because his plot is ridiculous. Ryan (Silent Ryan Ironside) is on the right, Young Jack on the left 👍

Refs and wip sketch:

So, lore ramble as I warned about:

Ryan has the Grizzleheim origin, and her parents were killed in a Mutiny. She's a Swashbuckler, and her First mate is consistently Subodai (horse Warrior). Ryan became a Mute after her parents were killed, and communicates with her crew solely through a complex system of tapping patterns, or simple hand signals. She's slow to trust, and is very loose with dropping people at the first sign of disloyalty, but she picks up her crew like they're each a stray sopping wet kitten. She's still a teen, so when they all joined her, they basically pulled "It takes a village to raise a kid" and the entire Crew works to boost her up as well as keep her safe.

Young Jack recap (w/o bias I hope) I'd that he's the nephew of a guy on the docks of Flotsam who went missing. You find him near the broken lighthouse, he's cursed, you hunt down the dude who made the curse and kill him. Give the head to Young Jack to keep him from getting zombified. Young Jack swears off pirating, and that's the last time he's seen.

Personal Explanation for the art above:

Ryan took the quest would really planning to follow through. She stumbled across Young Jack's trail by chance and found him injured and surrounded by undead. His old crew. She sympathized, and helped him back to his uncle, but Old Scratch and everyone else of Flotsam agreed that the boy was doomed to die of his curse by sundown. Only way was to kill this old immortal famous pirate, so Ryan did just that. She felt like she couldn't just stand down, and she killed the guy and presented it to Young Jack just before sundown.

Jack swore off pirating and retreated with his uncle back home, but I like to think Ryan kept in contact. Jack started work in the tavern, and Ryan made Flotsam her crew's go-to stop just to check in on Jack. They were friends, Ryan's first real friend, and got along swimmingly. Ryan taught him the codes and translations for her taps, and they bonded. (Currently they're still courting. Jack thinks she's just the coolest girl he's ever met, and she thinks Jack is reckless, but sweet.)

One time, I like to think just after Monquista, Ryan went to the tavern, only to get news that Jack had been kidnapped, by pirates, then the Armada. Ryan has a paralyzing fear of the Armada, but snuck away from her crew. She was trading her surrender for Jack's safe return. Ryan managed to send Jack back safe, giving herself up to Deacon in the process.

Jack, in my headcanon, has a giant slash scar across his face because of this incident. When he got back and tried to tell Ryan's crew what had happened, Subodai was furious. Subodai is basically Ryan's mentor and adoptive father, so when he heard what had happened his was in such great distress he didn't even think. He drew his sword and slashed Jack across the face without a second thought, before the crew could stop him.

Everyone ended up bannmding together to vet Ryan back in one piece, but that incident is what I think drove Jack to join Ryan's crew. If he remained away from her, he'd only be a dangerous outlier for enemies to use against her. Staying close let both of them be safer, and happier, despite how he swore off pirating not long ago.

Obviously Jack doesn't fight, he's not an npc I can pick up and take with me, so I like to think he's just kinda the housewife here. He keeps the ship and crew in order when Ryan's going onto land for extended periods of time. He also probably keeps track of Ryan's debts, favors owed, and things of that nature. Besides that though, they're just really close, and it's good that Ryan bonded with someone outside her crew for once, even if he ended up in the Crew in the end.

#p101 #pirate101 #pirate101 art #p101 oc #Silent Ryan Ironside #Young Jack #<- Always found it funny cuz Flotsam has like 3 other Jacks #and I chose to pluck the one with almost no story up fot this plot #just kinda made sense #anyways #not my best piece but I came up w/ the face-style literally like 3 days ago so it's working p well for its purposes #if nothing else the takeaway here is #Ryan is a girlboss against her will and Jack would follow her to the ends of the earth if he had to

fav season? 9

ep you hate? Judge, Jury and executioner. I guess. I wouldn’t say i fully hate it but I just hate court eps and ones like that

least fav storyline? Vance splitting the team up post judgement day. Just don’t like seeing the fam apart

scene that makes you anxious? any of those scenes in SWAK where Tony is deathly ill (before Gibbs tells him he’ll be fine)

thoughts on season 18? Emotional season from hell, don’t take me back ever

wishes for season 19? Less extreme emotion on the regular, some, I don’t know, closure (Gibbs and Bishop alike)

do you watch other NCIS? Nola? LA? yes! Love LA, Nola is pretty good too, haven’t watched it in awhile, I prefer the other two the most

a quote from the show that sticks with you? Jimmy’s speech to the kid on the ledge “the going through hell keep going thing” and of course many of Ziva’s idiom failures (I mean, my blog title is looking for a needle in a needle stack)

if you could change ONE thing about the show, what would it be? Let Bishop live her life in peace for 12 minutes without something hurtful happening to her

torres or dinozzo? Tough one, but Tony

ziva or ellie? Ziva. Hands down

jimmy or ducky? Jimmy

abby or kasie? Kasie (likely an unpopular opinion and absolutely no offense to Abby I love her too)

thoughts on luca sciuto? and kyle? How could you not like them? Sweethearts (now I’m thinking about Luca and Eva what an odd pair that was considering her now history with Gregorio)

rule you don’t get? 10 because it literally got broken all the time

if you can bring ONE character back, who would it be? Reeves. He was just a casuality in Abby’s departure storyline and I hate that for him

random headcanon? about the show, a character… Torres is the cool uncle that all the kids love despite his apparent initial dislike towards children

will tony and ziva have another child? I honestly don’t think so, but I would love to see it

thoughts on ellie by the end of season 18? That was a complete flip of the script, but as much as I liked her, she was not close to Ziva for me

is kasie straight? gay? bi? Bi. I’m going bi

thoughts on jessica knight? I loved her in those first eps, I’m curious to see what’s to come

when did you become a fan of the show? (season, year?) I’d say like 2013?? I watched reruns with my mom all the time but I didn’t start watching new weekly eps til right after Ziva left. I remember seeing magazine articles on her departure right as i was getting into it

which character would you date and why? Probably McGee or Jimmy, they’re just goofy sweethearts and I love them

#ncis #for a second i misunderstood that first q then i read the secondary in the next ones and im like ahh so thats where the non mains are at #i dont know how else to tag this... so #big cool ask tag here

Do the next gen racers have sons and/or daughters (in the future and stuff)?

Probably. People have kids no matter what their profession, though it is true that some people postpone that kind of stuff in order to focus on their careers or other things (and certain careers are more demanding than others). When/whether or not they decide to start a family depends on the individual and their own plans and desires (as well as their partner’s). As for how kids come about, my personal theory is that they are manufactured (however that may be), so that they resemble their parents, but are not born in the traditional sense. Adoption is also another viable option!

I don’t really have any specific ideas about who exactly their children would be, but I do have some general headcanons:

Since Storm is so career-focused, I can’t imagine him settling down any time soon (he doesn’t seem to have much of a personal life either). But as he gets older, that intense desire to win will likely wear off a bit, and he’ll realize that there’s other aspects of his life, besides racing, that need his attention. I think there’s a chance he’ll decide to not have kids at all, but if he does, it would just be one. 

As for the the type of father Storm’d be, he’d be a little distant, because I get the sense that he wouldn’t really know how to be a parent. He’d be prone to spoiling his kid, but he might also be that kind of competitive, “my kid is better than your kid” kind of parent. I’m not quite sure what the word is for it, but you know those parents that get really worked up at their kids’ Little League or soccer games? That. Storm would also try to push them to become a racer like him, but if they go down another career path, he’d be okay with it. He’d just want them to be the best at whatever it is (competitiveness is kind of his thing). He’d end up putting a lot of pressure on his kid, but he’d come to realize it eventually and ease up. At the end of the day, Storm just loves his kid like any good parent does, and wants the best for them.

Danny would definitely want kids. And a lot of ‘em. Maybe 5. In the hypothetical situation that he ends up with Cruz, she’d want a lot of kids too (but she’d be a little more reasonable about the number). Very much the family man who loves his children.

Ryan’s a fun-loving guy, so he’d be up for having kids as well. Probably around 3 of them. He’d be the fun dad: indulging his kids, bringing them to all of his races, showing them off to others.

Bubba would wait a while before having kids, but he would still be set on having a family some day. When the time comes around, he’d have 2. He’d be a little more on the strict side of parenting.

Chase would be like Storm in the sense that he would want to hold off on that, and spend as much time as possible being independent and drifting from place to place. He’d be hesitant to settle down, because he enjoys his freedom, but he’d do it eventually. He’d also want 2. He’d be kind of anxious about his role as a parent at first, but he’d settle into it fine enough.

Don’t really have any ideas for Tim. I guess he’d go about it the way the average person does and have 2. 

@the-kings-tail-fin has some good material on the Next-Gens’ kids (as you probably already know). I’m particularly fond of her headcanons and fics about Jackson’s daughter :)

[paradisefovnd]

what is something everyone should know about your muses before interacting?

multimuse ask meme accepting

i told vicky to send this to me again bc i’m a dumb and didn’t understand it the first time

ruth balakov  - she is SUPER high energy. if you interact with ruth, expect her to be just short of bouncing off the walls. also, she’s super random, so don’t be surprised if she just rambles on and on about all kinds of random shit

samir chaudhry - this guy may seem immature, but he’s actually very thoughtful and considerate

tutankhamun “tut” mcmullen  - he’s emotional. look up “emo” and there will be a pic of tut. however, he’ll try and hide it if he thinks that his emotions will hurt the other person (well, that’s if he cares about them. if he doesn’t, then he’ll let it all out) 

jughead jones - he’s a little shit. he’s also not the dark and brooding jughead from riverdale. i cannot stress that enough. my jughead is asexual, loves burgers more than life, and doesn’t say shit that sounds like a young chuck palahniuk. instead, he’s more like roald dahl minus a dash of the whimsy

melody valentine - again, she is NOT riverdale based. that’s honestly the most important thing about her and jughead. my melody is sunshine in a person and sings everything she says with the occasional bit of cryptic wisdom

mark darcy - basically, he’s a modern mr. darcy. something to know about him and my portrayal is that i’m probably not going to write him with a lot of people. most of the muse i have for him is when i’m writing him against bridget, and i can’t really change that. he’s deeply in love with her, and ??

choi han-kyul - this kid is the grandson of the chairwoman of a company so like he’s hella rich, and he takes it for granted at first. but then, he’s put in charge of running a coffee shop, and he matures a lot through the process. however, he doesn’t lose his playfulness. he’s honestly one of my favorites, and if anyone ever wanted to write with him, i would be beyond happy. 

dr. noelle akopian - she’s a psychiatrist who’s done with ur shit

greg serrano - self-sabotaging but currently working on improving his life. in business school, used to be a bartender. recovering alcoholic. 

maya - she’s the most pure and pls don’t hurt her

valencia perez - used to be a yoga instructor, but is now an event coordinator. hella gay even tho the show doesn’t admit it. deserves to be appreciated. is working on improving her “mean girl” tendencies. the “mean girl” tendencies tho are partially bc she’s never really had female friends and she just...doesn’t know what to do? she’s actually an awkward bean, but her beauty prevents a lot of ppl from realizing it

johnny castle - soft. again, don’t hurt him. he’s a dance instructor at a resort, but he can work in a lot of different verses. you need a dancer? he’s there. he’s very serious about his craft, and is a genuine human being. he appreciates honesty. 

blair warner - she’s rich af and can be super conceited, but she knows how to have a good time and has a little bit of a devious streak. depending on the verse - is either in law school or a lawyer. intelligent altho ppl don’t expect it. 

jo polniaczek - looks tough, is a soft. don’t let her leather jacket and motorcycle fool you. jo polniaczek just wants a simple life and she wants people to be happy and respected. respect is big with her. 

emily gilmore - a socialite altho she prefers the term “philanthropist.” emily might seem “evil” to some people, but she has good intentions (in her mind). she only does things when she thinks they’re the “right” thing to do (at least, before the revival), but she also has a bit of a mischievous streak that’ll come along every now and then. her upbringing instilled certain lessons in her that she’s unlearning little by little. 

meredith quill - she loves classic rock, motown, her son, and the world. she’s one of those people who’s in love with life, and her enthusiasm is genuine. 

alice longbottom - she’s kind and altruistic. however, she’s not a pushover. my alice isn’t “soft” alice. she’s “u said something super ignorant and im gonna tell you why youre wrong” alice. gryffindor. 

arthur weasley - arthur wants to learn everything he can about the world around him. a bit of an absent-minded professor, even tho his mind is always turning. he just has so many thoughts happening all at once, he can tend to jump from subject to subject without connecting them sometimes. gryffindor (altho he was almost a ravenclaw)

victoire weasley - read this here

helga g. pataki - helga is someone who came from a bad situation and pretty much raised herself. most of her interactions will be after high school. my headcanon is that she finished school and got a scholarship to ivy league and after that, she went to law school at another ivy. she hopes to be the first female president one day. she’s aggressive, but deep down, she cares a lot. 

effie trinket - seems like an airhead, but effie is smarter than you think. she grew up in a society where certain things were expected so she fulfilled them. her upbringing was also extremely different in the sense that she was fed propaganda from a young age and never knew differently, but her experiences in district 12 (or other verse equivalents) have shown her that the world isn’t what she thought it was, and she’s learning what life actually is little by little 

katniss everdeen - i won’t write katniss a lot just bc it takes me into a place that’s harder to get out of, but my katniss is a sacrifice of her circumstances. she never wanted to be a revolutionary figure and never felt comfortable with her position in it even after the war was over. her “toughness” that people seem to see is just katniss trying to survive. survival is her driving aspect. 

jane villanueva - jane is a mama who is also an incredible writer whose first book is in the process of being published. she writes romance novels so essentially she’s just like us! she likes having a plan for everything, and her family is number ONE in her life

michael cordero a detective. is also a major nerd. thinks he could be a comedian, but he’s not actually that funny. like maybe if you have a certain sense of humor. he lives with a certain code of ethics, however, they might get bent at points if he thinks it’s for the best of the situation. 

rogelio de la vega - telenovela actor. if your character met him on the street, they might not know him if they haven’t watched telenovelas, but he will assume that they know who he is and that he’s famous. SUPER dramatic. don’t be alarmed.  

elle woods - amazing lawyer, loves the color pink, member of delta nu. in my version, i take pieces from the movie and musical. for my elle, vivienne was the one who told her to come back to the case (like in the musical), but at the end, elle doesn’t propose to emmett. instead, she and vivienne start dating and fall in love and get married 

ryan atwood - he came from not a great family, and then he got adopted by this uber rich fam in the oc (orange county, california). he’s navigating his new life, and grappling with who exactly he is and what his place is in the world. just know that he’s deeply loyal and cares a lot about people

pam beesly - receptionist at dunder-mifflin paper company. insecure, but is slowly coming out of her shell. is an artist and outlawed at chili’s. is a huge dork, but also adorable. 

fitzwilliam darcy - super rich bc he inherited everything from his parents after they died. they died when he was young, so he was thrust into responsibility at an early age which is part of why he is the way he is. seems stuck-up (and kind of is), but he just doesn’t care of societal expectations of friendliness even though he gets caught in what society expects when it pertains to manners, etc. is his sister’s guardian, and she means more to him than anything else in the world

jane bennet - pure, the sweetest. the oldest sister of five. in modern verses, i have her as a preschool teacher

queen clarisse renaldi - queen of genovia. a literal queen. tries to be diplomatic. expects people to do as she tells them bc she’s a queen. has dealt with some shit in her life - her husband died, her SON died. tries to stay optimistic. 

sabrina fairchild - suicide attempt tw: her father is a chauffeur for a super rich fam. suffered from depression. attempted suicide, but thankfully, was found before it was too late. after that, she was sent to paris and attended cooking school. fell in love with paris, and also healed. developed a love for life. became a fashion designer. 

capheus onyango - son of a local leader who was murdered when capehus was young. was raised by his mother who he loves more than this earth. spent awhile driving a bus called the “van damme.” is a sensate, meaning he is connected to seven other people. idealistic, kind, and too good for this world. 

princess fiona - i’ll mostly be playing her with a real life fc. she’s a princess, an actual princess, and her parents had her in a tower for years bc there was a spell on her that turned her into an ogre at night. so kinda like the swan princess but instead of a swan, she’s an ogre. black belt. enjoys burping. 

shrek - an ogre, however, if i keep him, ill be playing him mostly with a real life fc. isolated from a young age, had to take care of himself. is insecure because of how he looks and who he is. enjoys burping as well. has layers. 

charles brooks - in charge of a publishing company. divorced. has two daughters. is cautious when entering new relationships because of his position and his family. respectful. intelligent. is finally starting to live life in a way that aligns with what he likes. 

josh - tattoo artist. human golden retriever except more funky. is just trying to enjoy life while he can. definitely a millennial. spontaneous. knows how to have a good time. is super duper loyal and kind.
