Word of Honor - Episode 1 Part 1- It Begins with a Ballet

20 years ago a bunch of dudes came together to make Wan Shi Tong's Library from Avatar: The Last Airbender.

And in order to open it one must obtain the mystical shiny!

Not sure why they couldn’t dig or something. Is it reinforced on all sides?

And making a key out of glass seems like a bad plan IMO but I’m not a martial arts master in Ancient China so what do I know?

----------

Oooh we starting with a roof-top assassin mission right from the off? Well hot damn!

Are they freaking out because of the lanterns though? Or because they noticed him?

Calm down! He’s just here to celebrate Rapunzel’s birthday with y’all!

This is a nice shot but it does kinda make me think he got there via hot air balloon which is always fun.

Oooh! These guys would be great at protecting Romani Ranch from “Them”!!

Bullseye!

OMG THEY DID COME IN VIA HOT AIR BALLOON I forgot most of the first part of this episode. Lol

-------------

Local Man shocked to realize that he probably should have started his letter about the royal assassins going around killing officials of the court a bit sooner as the royal assassins who are going around killing officials have arrived to kill him, an official of the court.

----------

Cut loose Footloose Kick off the Sunday shoes

----------

Young man with a bit more skill than the others requires main character to get his own hands dirty. if this were any other story he might have been the protagonist.

Lookin fly in that assassin hat tho.

----------

No thank you I just shaved this morning.

------------------------------------------------

Leg

--------------------------------------

I suppose this is one of the down sides to this otherwise ‘nice sword’.

Which is now a boomerang? What were you gonna do if he didn’t deflect it and like just dodged instead? Run after it? Call time out and chase your yeeted blade?

----------

Tryin to make us think our man in blue is getting the upper-hand now. But look at our MC. Look at how bored and unimpressed he is. He’s already dead inside.

----------

Nooooo his hat!!! rip

----------

I, for one, always appreciate when the main characters come with their own labels. It honestly helps me and I wish more movies and shows in like every country did that. I know here it’s like added flair for the drama. But you don’t understand how bad I am with names! You don’t understand!

----------

“I’m here to see Officer Li off.” Yeah off of this mortal plane

----------

*oven ding noise because your goose is cooked, Son.

Called it

----------

Oop! He Zoomin!

----------

Tensions are high but just LOOK at that air time! Now that’ll be one for the books.

----------

“Gross”

----------

Sweeping villain theme while his cloak billows in the glow of the lanterns and the moon. This is quality villain posing and I’m HERE for it.

----------

“Zhou ZiShu, what you do to others will be inflicted on you later.” Bitch Imma do it myself

----------

He felt bads about it but tath was his duety

----------

Question, did she lay this out herself or did she ask someone else to do it so that she could be sad in style?

----------

I see you there settin’ up that there symbolism.

----------

Hello. We’re calling about your car’s extended warranty.

----------

Hi. Everyone you know and loved is dead by my own hand on made up pretense. Thanks for bringing me the body of the dead people *I* loved. For that I’ll let you kill yourself instead of running you through with my bendy sword.

We’re still cool, though, right?

----------

I’m thinkin this is the first of many instances of “Twisting the Screws” as it were.

Look! He’s silly! Playful! You can almost see the light of hope in his eyes!

----------

*Pouting intensifies*

-------------------------------

That awkward moment when you find out you just killed your beloved shidi’s girl.

Oops

----------

X Gon Give it to Ya

----------

Okay so I know what has happened and what is about to happen is so much worse than this but like don’t you think it’s just adding insult to injury to make this guy slow-burn end his life while having to sit in the damn snow?

you’re indoors! Close the sun-roof! Move the chair! Something!

----------

When people say “Screw this job!” they don’t usually mean it quite so literally.

----------

When do you think was the last time this poor bastard smiled?

----------

Yeah I’m gonna go with “ow”

----------

Hmmmm I guess no job is safe from those two gossipy coworkers that always seem to exist

----------

And then there’s this asshole

“Why hasn’t he come to see me? Is he still injured? How?”

“It seems he is suffering from “sad bitch” disease, m’lord.

----------

WHO’S BEEN PAINTING MY ROSES RED??? WHO DARES TO TAINT WITH VULGAR PAINT THE ROYAL FLOWER BED?

----------

And so he decided to make the “sad bitch’ disease a permanent condition.

----------

“Don’t do that”

A little late there buddy.

----------

Look at him! He’s laughin! He’s having a good time!

----------

“I kinda sucked ass as a leader, didn’t I?”

---------

Man’s got pretty shoulder blades, nice and toned from carrying the weight of his sins.

----------

Thanks for coming! You look like shit :)

-_-

--------

It is admittedly some kind of power move to strip down to your skivvies instead of just explaining that you would like to die now pls.

Say what you want but Zhou ZiShu certainly has a flair for the dramatic.

----------

I would like to quit via slow and painful death now pls. May I pls have permission to die a slow and painful death now pls?

----------

This man speedrunning the 5 stages of grief. Shit we’re already at bargaining

----------

“I wanna get nailed before I die.”

----------

“In three years I’ll ascend the throne and that’ll show you!!!” “Bitch I don’t CARE.”

----------------------

“When my fortune said I could expect an unexpected promotion I didn’t quite expect it to happen this way.”

----------

Peace Out

TBC...

Hello!Can you make a dread x shin drabble,for " “darling please go back to sleep” for the 5th time". I dont know what about she asked, but i hope tath you will have idea. I be really happy if you do this. And i dont good at english so sorry if you dont understand or other problem.

ah no your okay haha it’s fine.

“……do we really see the colors we see or are they what we imagine them to be?”

shin groaned lightly into a pillow as he rolled over to see dread staring at the wall. “darling please go back to sleep.” he said for possibly the fifth time that night. although he was usually used to dread’s inability to sleep and odd questions but it was getting tiresome. especially since they had work tomorrow.

“i’m just saying sir what if.” she stated. “what if all we’re experiencing is our own imaginations. colors, textures….people.”

the pause before ‘people’ caused the warden to sit up a bit in interest on what she meant.

“…perhaps also…appearances…” she continued, putting a hand to her face a bit. …this was strangely melancholy he thought. moving a bit towards her he wrapped an arm over her. naturally dread turned to her side, looking down so her hair was cascading her face.

“i hope none of that’s true.” he said, putting a hand under one of her cascading piece of hair to lift it up lightly. “i’d hate living in a fantasy then a lovely reality.”

light blue eyes widened a bit as dread rubbed into the hand that was still on her face, smiling a small bit.

“mmm. i’d hate it too.”

Questing Buddies!

Also known as Questing Buddies: The Musical! or simply Chapter 4. Long ass post, so it’s under the cut.

Gaudy, CJ, and M carefully approached the concert, which is to say that they tangoed dramatically until they reached the crowd of people waving their hands in the air, jumping and screaming in front of many, many signs that said “ETHAN THE LOUD.” Yes, everyone had roses in their teeth, and no, don’t ask me where the roses are coming from. I’m just the humble storyteller.

Ethan seemed to be hyping up the crowd violently, though from what they could see, he had no idea how rowdy they were getting. “HE LOOKED AT ME! HE LOVES ME!” they heard one girl shriek, and she immediately decked the poor boy standing next to her with a chair. “HE LOVES ME, NOT YOU!”

The concert turned into what was almost all-out war within a few minutes, and Ethan had to stop singing. “Whoa, whoa, whoa, stop fighting! All of you!”

They ignored him. The Questing Buddies tangoed carefully through the crowd and reached Ethan, who looked like he wanted any way to get off the stage. The stage, incidentally, was far too tall to get on or off without magical intervention or stairs without suffering serious harm.

“You three are the only ones fighting, right? I need to get down here before there’s a mob or something. Do any of you have a ladder?”

CJ looked questioningly at Gaudy, but M shook her head. “Leave this to me,” she said, and leaped impossibly high into the air, landing on the stage in a perfect crouch. A shockwave dramatically rippled through the ground, and the crowd stopped their brawl. “Whoops, sorry,” she said. “I don’t know how to do it without the cartoony shockwave, but just tell them the concert’s over and we can jump down from here.”

“People! I’m sorry to do this, but I have to bring this concert to an early ending. So thank you so much, and quit fighting!” Ethan looked questioningly at M.

The crowd went back to ignoring him.

“Okay, just, I don’t know, grab onto my elbow or something and hold on tight and-” She finished her sentence in midair, screaming, “CROUCH WHEN YOU HIT THE GROUND OR SOMETHING!”

Ethan and M hit the ground, looking surprisingly badass. “There. And if you ship us, we’ll kick your teeth in!” she yelled to the crowd.

The crowd, surprisingly, did not ignore her, but stared at what they thought was a new competitor for Ethan’s hand.

“Exactly what the fuck is going on?” said Gaudy. “Don’t worry, I won’t ship you guys. We can hash out the newest member’s application form later, but we should probably speed tango away from this...mob. Take a rose, I’ll explain later.”

GAUDY

WE’RE BEING CHASED BY A MOB

WHY AM I NOT SURPRISED

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME

THAT CAN BE SURMISED

I THINK WE SHOULD RUN

ALTHOUGH IT’S KINDA FUN

TO TANGO AWAY WITH YOU GUYS

ETHAN

I USUALLY SING

TO A NORMAL CROWD

MOBS REALLY AREN’T MY THING

BUT YOU’RE ETHAN THE LOUD!

WE REALLY SHOULD RUN

EVEN THOUGH IT’S FUN

TO TANGO AWAY WITH YOU GUYS

ALL

WE MIGHT REGRET THIS LATER

BUT THERE’S REALLY NOTHING GREATER

THAN TANGOING AWAY WITH YOU GUYS!

“Well, that was a lovely impromptu song and dance number, but we are now running for our lives and in desperate need of a plot device in real life- is that a lettuce farm?” Gaudy skidded cartoonishly to a stop at the sight of an adorable cottage with a garden full of lettuce. Add in a “screeching tires” sound and you’ve got the perfect mental image.

Someone who looked like your mental stereotype of a lettuce farmer, AKA a gay badass (we are all being completely serious, Tath is a gay badass), walked out of the cottage. “Hi, I’m Tath,” she said. “My wife and I were in there trying to figure out which lettuce seeds are the best, so- is that another mob? I’m not even going to ask at this point. Our cellar has a random secret passageway which has been there forever and serves no point, but it might work to hide in if you’re going on a quest.”

“Holy fuck, Tath, we are literally indebted to you at this point. I’d promise you my firstborn if I hadn’t already bet it,” said M. “Different story,” she added. “Not important right now.”

***

“How can cellars be cute? This is adorable!” CJ stepped back to take in the true majesty of the cellar. It was truly an adorable cellar.

“All right, all of you, go into the miscellaneous passageway, my wife and I are kind of busy and it looks like an important plot point might be up there,” said Tath. “Hurry up, I was making dinner and I don’t want it to burn.”

The ragtag band hurried into the passageway. “Bye, all of you!” called Tath’s wife. “Don’t forget to put in a good word for us if you meet the king!”

The passageway started to climb, and the walls turned from tightly packed soil to stone bricks. Stairs started to appear as well, and the passageway morphed into a spiral staircase inside a tower.

“Well. I wasn’t expecting to be running around inside a castle today, but you never know.” Gaudy looked completely fine with everything going on, sort of floating up the stairs. They were the only one who wasn’t complaining quietly about how many stairs there were.

GAUDY

THIS IS A CASTLE

I THINK?

PRETTY SURE IT’S A CASTLE

I GUESS

I THINK IT MIGHT BE A STRONGHOLD

OR A DUNGEON, THAT’S THE BEST

GAUDY

BUT I’M NINETY PERCENT SURE IT’S A CASTLE

I GUESS

BOTH

IT MIGHT BE A DUNGEON,

IT MIGHT BE A TRAP

BOTH OF OUR IDEAS

MIGHT BE FULL OF CRAP

BUT SINCE WE’RE GOING

ON A QUEST

I THINK IT’S A CASTLE

IT’S PROBABLY A CASTLE

PRETTY SURE THAT IT’S A CASTLE

I GUESS

“This tower is freakishly high, so how about some backstory?” CJ looked at Ethan. “You need to explain the mob, and you-” they looked at M- “need to explain where and why you bet your firstborn. You don’t even have kids!”

Ethan sighed. “This is gonna be a long story.”

*gratuitous flashback noise and animation*

“I was kind of wandering around pointlessly, wishing I could do something and go on a cool quest, when I ran into this lady in a huge pink poofy ball gown. You know the kind, the one any toddler would sell their soul to Satan for? She was wearing that. And a beauty-queen sash. She was smiling and doing that wave thing that made it look like she was washing a window, and when I went up to her, she was all-” Ethan pouted and did a bad impression of the lady’s voice- “’Oh, hello, I didn’t see you there.’ And then she went 'You’re cute. I’m gonna give you a gift.’ And she bopped me on the head with this wand that was like a pink sparkly star on a stick and told me that people would always be fans of my music and love me when I sang. Hard not to feel like she cursed me, yanno?”

“Well, that cleared that up,” said CJ. “Now you, M. “

M shrugged. “What can I say? Being an evil wizard’s apprentice means you bet a lot. You bet a lot of shit, and sometimes you bet your firstborn. Joke’s on them, I’m never having kids. If I do they’ll be dragons I’ve adopted or something.”

“Good life choices,” said Gaudy. “Wait-there are windows, and while I appreciate the natural light as much, if not more, than you people, the fact that they’re there is worrying.”

“Is now the time to dramatically point and scream ‘A DOOR!’ Because I’m all ready and drama waits for nobody,” CJ said.

“Alright, sure, point and yell, Christine,” said Gaudy. CJ looked at them. “What? It’s fitting! This is the musical!”

CJ pointed to the door and yelled, “A DOOR!” They bowed. Gaudy, M, and Ethan applauded.

“Let’s go through it. I mean, if anyone has any other plans...” Luckily, there were no other plans, and CJ’s plan, also known as the only plan possible, was carried out. Unluckily, this door opened onto a corridor, and down that corridor was a direct route to the throne room.

“What do we do?” CJ hissed. “If I know this king, he’s a flaming asshole and I don’t need this kind of negativity in my life.”

The luckless group tripped, as one, over a hilariously long carpet and quadruple somersaulted into the throne room in a move that was the textbook version of “undignified.”

The king and his queen lolled mockingly on their thrones, looking like incredibly disgusted magazine models with a long and tiring day of nothing to do. “Hmph.” It was nothing but a noise of boredom and distaste. The king emitted it masterfully, being that boredom and distaste were his day jobs.

The queen looked down her long nose at the ragtag band. “Desmond, dear, don’t you think they’re a little too raggedy to be in our throne room? I mean, we just got a new carpet and it’s already mussed...”

Her voice trailed off, only to return complete with a dusting of sugar. The queen had seen CJ.

“Oh, sweetie darling honeypumpkin, how we’ve missed you! Come up here and give Mummy a hug.” The queen smiled. She had lipstick on her teeth, a bright red color that added to the ambiance.

“Hey, I remember you!” Ethan was staring at the queen. “Weren’t you the one in a fairy princess dress with a...” He stopped talking. It had sunk in. This woman was CJ’s mother.

“Thank you ever so kindly,” said CJ, icicles hanging on every word. It suddenly felt much colder in the throne room. “But even though I was welcomed so warmly, I feel the need to alert my sister to my return. Thank you, Mother, for allowing me to leave.” With a final jab of sarcasm, they swept off, head held high, probably to their room.

“Ah,” said the king. “That leaves you raggedy bunch. Drusie, what do you want to do with them?” From far above there was a loud thunking noise, followed by a shriek. CJ was locked in.

“Oh, I’m quite sure I haven’t got a clue,” muttered the queen. “How about--THIS!” She pressed a button on the underside of her throne arm, and a pit opened in the floor. The ragtag band plummeted through into the dungeons. “Oh, Dezzy baby, we are brilliant! Those little shits are bribes in human form!”

DRUSILLA

OH DEZZY, DARLING, WE’RE BRILLIANT

YOU’RE THE KING OF THE HILL

I’M THE CREAM OF THE CROP

DESMOND

DRUSILLA

DEZZY, LET’S GO FOR A SPIN

DESMOND

IT SUITS THE SITUATION WE’RE IN

Hello! I have a question for you. Ok, so I was born of the female sex and when people ask I just tell them I'm a girl. However I tend to get uncomfortable with being called a girl? Like when my mother refers to me as her daughter it feels weird? I know I'm not trans because being called a boy gets me uncomfortable as well. And at times I tend to feel more masculine then others and vice versa, but the pronouns just put me off :/ What are some possible genders that I could be? Thank you so much! !

Well... to put it bluntly, you still can be most nonbinary genders.

And you don’t need to be binary (or even transmasculine) to be trans.

Some common nonbinary identities that don’t have to do with either binary gender, and that also don’t have anything to do with masculinity or femininity (at least by default):

Agender: “A nonbinary gender identity. People who are agender feel that they lack a gender/have no gender, or that there is not a gender that fits them.While this is a distinct identity from neutrois, the two are sometimes used interchangeably by agender/neutrois people, so the definition for neutrois may also apply to some agender people.“

Neutrois: “A gender identity that feels neutral, null, or genderless. Sometimes used interchangeably with agender, as the two definitions overlap.“

Maverique: “Maverique is a gender characterized by autonomy and inner conviction regarding a sense of self that is entirely independent of male/masculinity, female/femininity or anything which derives from the two while still being neither without gender nor of a neutral gender.”

Quoigender: “Similar to quoi- as an orientation, this term describes someone who feels that the concept of having a gender does not apply or does not make sense for them.”

Stargender: “An otherworldly gender that is beyond comprehension in earthly terms, as if it originated from beyond the earth. OR a gender that cannot be defined no matter how many other terms are coined OR simply the gender of a star.”

Stellarian: “With as many possible identities and presentations as there are stars in the sky, a Stellar Nonbinary Person, or Stellarian, would be someone who does not experience strong alignment with either binary gender, or who rejects such alignment.”

(Note: stellarian is usually just used as in a gender alignment, that is, something that isn’t exactly a gender but that can be used to describe your gender or how you feel about it. However, you can just identify as a nonbinary stellarian, or as a genderqueer stellarian, just like how you can be a stellarian agender person or a stellarian genderfluid person.)

Transneutral: A term used to describe transgender people who were assigned male or female at birth, but identify with neutral gendered feelings to a greater extent than with femininity or masculinity. They usually are nonbinary but could be trans men or trans women.

(Note: transneutral is also used more as an alignment kind of thing; you can be transneutral and agender, transneutral and maverique, transneutral and androgyne, transneutral and a demigirl and so on.)

Cassgender: “A gender identity where one feels that their gender is unimportant or is indifferent to the idea of gender.”

(Note: yes, cassgender people may feel bad about being mistaken for other genders or about being referred to with certain pronouns; the indifference is mostly about the gender itself.)

Now, this next list has some other genders that you could look into, which I’m presenting to you either because:

1) You may feel some connection with girlhood, but aren’t a binary girl and don’t like being treated as one;

2) You feel masculine, but not like a boy.

Libragender:“A gender identity that is mostly agender, but has a connection to masculinity and/or femininity and/or other gendered feelings. That connection may be static (libragender, librafeminine, libramasculine, etc) or fluid, where one feels that the gender one experiences changes (librafluid).”

Mascgender or Mascugender: “A non-binary gender which is masculine in nature.”

Mingender: “Umbrella term for all genders masculine in nature. Also a term to refer to a gender that isn't fully defined but definitely masculine, or a gender in which masculinity is its defining feature (but the gender is not binary male). May simply be used as "min", ie. "my gender is min".”

Nonpuer: "Someone who is not male at all in any way, shape, or form, but feels a strong connection to masculinity within their gender. Nonpuer is the young form and Nonvir is the older form, as, similarly to the term "enby", many find "boy" (puer means boy in Latin) infantilizing.”

Juxera: “Feminine gender similar to girl, but on a separate plane and off to itself.”

Nonbinary girl: “A nonbinary gender with feminine or 'girl' qualities.”

Androgyne: A gender identity where a person experiences a blending of genders, or feels that their identity is in between genders. Usually, but not always, people who identify as androgyne feel that their identity is a blending of male and female, or somewhere between those two genders. Androgyne people may or may not choose to present androgynously.

Androgyneflux: “A state where you have fluctuating feelings of masculinity and femininity, but your gender identity stays the same. Someone who is androgyneflux can be of any gender identity (binary trans, nonbinary, cis, etc.).”

Altegender: “Derived from shortening the phrase “alternate existence.” It is a xenogender that feels as though it’s in a parallel dimension, on a different plane, in a mirror universe, or just in an alternate existence.”

Genderflux: “Having a gender which changes in intensity. Could be considered as being fluid between gendered and agender.”

(Note: you can be genderflux and never be 100% that gender or 0% that gender)

Demigender: “A gender identity that feels partially like one gender and partially like some other (usually non-identified nonbinary) gender. So, for instance, someone can be a demiboy, and feel partially like a boy but partially not.The demi label may be placed in front of any other gender label. It is most frequently seen as demigirl or demiboy, but can also be used with nonbinary genders and can be used with more than two genders (someone can be demigirl, demiboy, and deminonbinary).”

(Note: that may be the basic description of demigender, however a lot of people use it more like “having a faint connection to that gender, but not necessarily having another gender along with it”)

About these last three genders: you can switch -gender with any gender, not just binary ones. If your gender is masculine, but not male, and it changes intensity from time to time, you can be nonpuerflux or mascflux, for example.

I would originally give some more random examples so you could see how varied gender identities can be, but I think this is long enough as is.

Feel free to ask further about any of those identities if you want to know more, or feel free to do research on them on your own (just be careful because a lot of results may be mocking those identities).

Regardless of how you feel about your gender itself, it could also be useful to look for some pronoun lists, if you don’t feel like you fit either she/her or he/him. A few common ones are they/them, e(y)/em, ne/nem, fae/faer, ze/hir, ze/zir and xe/xem, but there are hundreds of possibilities out there.

I would also advise to avoid saying you or anyone else was “born of/into a [male/female] sex”, because this is merely a gender assignment. People are assigned/designated as male or female since birth, sure, but since Western/eurocentric society is extremely cissexist and dyadist, there is a conflation of actual sex, assigned sex and gender that is really harmful to intersex and non-cis people in general.

I suggest using “assigned [gender] at birth” (AGAB, usually manifests as AFAB or AMAB), or “designated [gender] at birth” (DGAB, usually manifests as DFAB or DMAB).

I hope I didn’t leave you too confused! Feel free to ask further questions!

~ Tath
