Excerpt from the next chapter of Spellbound.

«Ravager, Willow and Jericho reporting for duty.» Grant announces, standing before Slade’s desk with his chin high and both arms behind his back. Rose and Joseph are right behind him. «The mission was a success, but if I may, we should plan the next steps very carefully. We collected some potentially concerning data.»

Rose is vaguely smiling, which is not concealed by the mask covering only half of her face. And her older brother has to somehow sense it given the slightly annoyed twitch of his wrist, but he doesn’t comment. 

«Brief me about this concerning data, Ravager.» Slade replies as he quickly skims through the report he's just been handed. 

Grant does, explaining in detail that there’s been finds of Element X, leading his team to speculate that there could be plans for another alien strike in the foreseeable future. He effortlessly skims over irrelevant snippets and produces pictures and samples of everything they considered worth taking note of, while Rose taps her foot and crosses arms on her chest, losing the upright stance and looking like she’d love to be out in the summer day. It is a beautiful day outside, to be fair. The Justice League Headquarters are bathed in light.

«The matter will be passed to more experienced members of the League.» Slade declares, albeit knowing the kids won’t be happy. «You did a good job so far and you will be assigned another soon. Unless…» He places down the report to eye his kids. «Unless you would like to enjoy the rest of your evening.»

Grant is looking defeated, Rose perks up, and Joey pulls down the upper part of his suit to uncover his face. 

«Before this oaf says anything,» Rose starts, playfully pushing Grant out of the way. «Yes. Rest of the evening. Enjoying ourselves.»

«I suppose we’d like that, yes.» Joey adds before his older brother can complain. «Nice to see you, Pop. You should take a break and enjoy the nice weather as well.»

«Can I say my piece…?» Grant huffs, not pushing Rose back though. «I agree on not involving these two children in whatever the next steps are, but I’m experienced enough. And I possess first-hand information. It would make no sense to exclude me from the following operations.»

«That’s a good point.» Slade nods. He likes his eldest’s attitude, even if he could use a little less eagerness for his own good. «But some decisions aren’t mine to make. There is a protocol regarding high risk threats.» He does have an idea of making it so Grant gets involved this time around, so that Slade himself can supervise the next steps of his training, but he can’t say that to the kid. He’ll make it so it will look like another Leaguer decided it. «Taking breaks is part of the job anyway. As your brother suggested, I'm going to take one myself.»

Reluctant Bride

Pairing: Ellaria Sand x Baratheon!Fem! Reader (background Oberyn Martell x baratheon!fem!reader)

warnings: description of war, derogatory description of women, forced marriage, oberyn talks lowly of the reader’s appearance and status because he’s angry he has to marry in the first place, Oberyn is a dick but he gets better, (this makes it sound worse than it is lol. Just lore building with angst and sapphic yearning lmao. 

Summary: Just months after the rebellion has ended, Ellaria Sand meets her lover’s betrothed.

word count: 1k 

_____

Ellaria was dressed in finer clothes than you on your own wedding day. 

Orange silk embroidered with golden serpents hugged her curves and fine jewels were weaved into her hair that your betrothed seemed content to twirl with his finger as he leaned in to whisper in her ear. 

You didn’t need to be told who she was. The beautiful woman by your husband’s side, you saw it plainly in his eyes. Love and devotion that could never be found in a marriage under the sept’s roof, but rather one made by affection and passion. 

Ellaria Sand was more of Oberyn’s wife than you ever thought you would be. 

But bless the poor woman’s heart, she was frightened. 

She didn’t want to come to his wedding at first. But Oberyn has all but begged her to, laying gentle kisses up her arm until he was mumbling his plea into the crook of her neck. 

“If I will be forced to wed against my will, the least you can allow me is the pleasure of having my true love by side when I am chained to another.” 

He always has a flair for dramatics, her sweet prince. 

But Ellaria felt it, as she entered Storm’s End by his side, the judgemental stares and hushed whispers when his hand did not release hers. She knew exactly what they thought of her without ever heaving to hear their voices grind against her ears. 

“He brought his whore?”

“To his own wedding, the gal!” 

“She’s a bastard too, I heard.” 

“That’s the dornish for you, debauched dogs, every single one of them.” 

But she would not flinch at their words, she knew she was a bastard since birth, Dorne may have welcomed it but the rest of Westeros had no issue reminding her and every other sand in the world of their place. She learned it well and wore it with pride. She was the lover of the Red Viper, a child of house Uller, the gossip of tittering lords and ladies did not frighten her. 

However, the Baratheons did. 

She would be a fool not to, truly. They were the ones that started the war, plunging the realm into a year of bloodshed and horror that their eldest son charged headfirst into without a second thought. 

Strong, dutiful, dangerous. 

As she entered Storm’s End, thunder echoing against its stone walls that made their grand home resemble a shadowed cave rather than a castle, she is reminded of their words. 

Ours is the fury. 

It had been the third child, who greeted them. Dressed in all black and face somber, he looked well past his age, like a soldier returning from war rather than the young man just coming to age as he was.

“It’s a great honor to have you, my prince.”

But Stannis Baratheon had suffered a siege while his brother commanded from the battlefield, he had seen the war just the same. 

His eyes, dark and cutting like a hidden blade, fell onto Ellaria, for a moment she felt as if she had come to an execution, rather than a wedding. Stannis looked at her like an intrusion, before bowing his head. 

“My sister is eager to join our houses with this union. As are you, I am sure.” 

Oberyn’s agreeance was slick with mockery, teeth flashed in a grin that made the young man’s face go sour. 

“There is nothing I look forward to more.” 

He had yet to let go of Ellaria’s hand. 

The pair did not separate until they reached the sept, a grand building covered in tapestries of every dead saint and alive with hymns that speak of love and devotion. 

Two things seldom found between husband and wife. 

Oberyn walked to the altar alone, but his eyes caught hers  in the crowd and he smiled. Even from afar, she knew him well enough to catch the twitch of his thumb at his side. That despite his anger and dismissive arrogance he loves to wrap himself in like a silken robe, he was at a disadvantage. This was not his home and nor were these were not his people.  He was in the house of the family responsible for the death of his sister with no plan for vengeance, but a wedding he was forced into, just like his Elia.

Ellaria’s gaze is pulled from her lover as the grand door creaks open over the singing, where their king enters, face still laden with scars of the rebellion, of his conquest, escorting the bride by hand. 

Robert Baratheon was large in every way possible. His presence commanded respect. Even in his formal wear the bulk of his muscle was seen through as he walked. The hymns dulled to a soft hum at his entrance, head turning as his eyes cut into the crowd before they landed on Ellaria and she froze in her spot. 

For a moment, fear clenched her heart. 

Robert had unleashed a war upon the realm when Rhaegar took his betrothed, he plunged his siblings into starvation and rode against countless noble families that now bend the knee to him. He caved in the chest of the silver-haired dragon prince himself, severing the three headed dragon with his war hammer until there was nothing left of it’s legacy than two eggs, lost to the wind. 

And here she stood at his sister’s wedding, the proud lover of her betrothed. 

There’s a brief moment where she wondered if he was going to say something. Shout an order for her to be escorted out for being so bold to be at the union, but then a hand squeezed his and he pulled away from her gaze to yours. 

“Don’t.” Barely a whisper that only he could hear. No question nor plea, but an order. 

One the Usurper obeys without resistance. 

Ellaria had never seen you in person before. But Oberyn had painted a foul picture of you the moment your betrothal was confirmed to still be held after the rebellion. He spoke of your sneer and the way your lips puckered into a sour pout each time somebody spoke to you, your eyes were flat and empty of any emotion. 

“If it weren’t for her skirt I wouldn’t know which one I was marrying.” Oberyn jested as he lifted a goblet of wine to his lips. “Her or Stannis.” 

Ellaria watched you walk down the aisle to her lover, struck by your beauty. 

A hood sat atop your head that fell to embroidered lace covering your shoulders, her eyes found a stray curl that dangled by your face and wondered what it would feel like under her finger tips. Dark eyes flick over to her own if only for a second and she felt herself stopped once more, not with fear. 

But desire. 

You continued forward and she watched you walk down the aisle to the awaiting prince. 

A strong nose frames the soft line of your features, shoulders drawn back and head held high like a queen to be worshiped or a painting to be admired. 

You were regal. Looking more like a crowned ruler than the king by your side.

Your voice did not waver during your vows, she wondered if you were frightened. Any woman would be. To marry a man who loathed her family for a death you had no part in. 

But you didn’t let it show. Instead the promise to be a loyal wife echoed through the sept before you leaned forward and pressed your lips to Oberyn’s, who was just as stiff as you. 

As she watched the first kiss of an unwanted marriage, Ellaria’s chest filled with envy of her beloved prince.

one thing i genuinely love (and understand) is during the twitter to tumblr migration when tumblr users would post like 'please newer users, dont spam tags, the purpose of tags is for organization purposes' while also simultaneously tumblr as a whole has always thrived off of tag communication, tag gushing, and essays entirely in tag format

#its funny seeing stuff like 'please dont use beach sand nevada potato for ur tags if there isnt a beach sand nevada and potato in ur tags' #while also seeing the whole 'H JKASDHKJDSHAKJ H!?!? JDLSKAHJDLSA HASD -sweats pukes cries- i love your art op!!! aaaa -screams explodes-' #dw about it and yes i am using the tags the way nature has intended thank u goodbye fdgdfgfgv #happy stuff

I don't mean to offend, but Temari is the useless one of the sand sibs. She literally does nothing in Shippuden, whereas Kankuro is at least given some stuff to do in the arcs that matter (the one where Gaara was kidnapped and basically killed and the big war arc thing at the end).

whats shippuden

#this is the funniest message i've ever received thank u anon #now to rant in the tags #sure temari didn't do shit in shippuden but that's because uh no one did #except the insane sasuke naruto powerscaling and also like madara. because naruto is a show about underdog ninja kids #and shippuden is about moon wizards and magic #they're not the same show whatsoever like #my whole blog is characters that got stiffed in the show lets b real. team gai? shafted. sand sibs? shafted #also temari landed the first hit on madara? are u ok anon #in kishimotos dsasters of writing women i think temari is still an incredible character and she'd kick my ass any day <3 #thank you for making me laugh this morning kdhgkdfhg #anonymous #answered #temari #kankuro #gaara #sand siblings #nart

(I'm currently nursing a nasty hangover and am feeling emotional so please accept this and remember me as I was in my better days)

I have so many thanks...too many thanks actually for everyone that follows this sideblog. I've had it for YEARS, but never spent much time socializing with the fandom until the recent boom. I was immediately welcomed from so many people and it means a lot. ❤️

A huge thank you to my unhinged discord buds who listen to my ramblings, give advice/critique on graphics and gave rise to my ultimate 'ron is a grower' headcanon (we have pics for proof). you're all amazing @basilone @almost-a-class-act @cody-helix02 @currahee @latibvles @gorgeousundertow & so many others that I'm blanking on your urls 💗

Biggest appreciation to @snarkyliebgott for always sifting through my nonsense and responding with kindness and equal nonsense (i.e.: what would put easy company in a coma first). They're the first person I felt truly connected to in the fandom. I feel like I could write gibberish and they'd completely understand. I'll always support my georgian sugar plum peach!! ✨

@ronald-speirs - I think you were the first person to interact with my red cross graphic (the first thing I've made for this fandom since 2019) and you've been a wonderful friend ever since. Our convos (no matter how short) make me laugh every single time. You, your edits and screencaps are A GIFT!

@saturnwisteria - for always being on my dash and in my notes on both this account and my personal! I hope we can have more interactions in the new year!!

@mutantmanifesto - not only is your artwork breathtaking and amazing, but you yourself are amazing and so friendly to talk to. I get so excited when I see a new mention cause it means you've fed us another masterpiece we are not worthy of.

@ewipandora - I couldn't forget you on here!!! We just became mutuals this month but I already feel like we've been following each other all year! (your webgott kink post had me weak, thanks again for that bread)

@historyl3sbian - I really thought I was already following you and realized a few days ago I WAS A FOOL! Your text posts make me laugh every. single. time I never get tired of seeing them. Thank you again for letting me use them as inspo for my own unhinged creations. Keep being groovy ;)

also @mercurygray for creating this holiday positivity train and giving me the idea to make this post. It's what jolly ol' saint luz would of wanted.

xoxo - sharkboyandlavalieb

#I have so many mutuals I want to thank but I couldn't fit it all here #happy new years!!!!! #if anyone remembers that vine of the girl crying in the sand needing to take a nap #that's me right now #sharkboytext #mutuals tag

not related to any game or show, but more or less inspired by how video games portray "desert enemies", featuring a low-level enemy, aerial enemy, underling, midboss, final boss, and secret enemy if you've played the game enough! c:

10 QL Characters I Desire Carnally

@firstkanaphans and @sandrayy tagged me, thank you for this, i needed it. it was highly entertaining.

1. Khaotung Thanawat as Ray Pakorn [ONLY FRIENDS] (to no one's surprise. he was a drunk and drug addict, but this boy was fine af, 10/10, no regrets. i don't blame sand, i would also let him turn my life upside down)

2. Namtan Tipnaree as Porjai [LAST TWILIGHT] (i mean....)

3. Song Jioh as Choi Yuna [SEMANTIC ERROR] (she's actually my girlfriend)

4. First Kanaphan as Alan Anantachai [MOONLIGHT CHICKEN] (i thought it would be way too hypocritical of me if i didn't put a first character in this list simply bc i'm in love with this man. also, i hope he gets more roles where he's older bc it adds that little something, it's great)

5. Sarocha Burin as Kat [THE WARP EFFECT] (the warp effect was one of the first five thai shows i've watched. she changed my life)

6. Jimmy Jitaraphol as Mhok [LAST TWILIGHT] (he's perfect. the greenest flag. the role model. the man every man and woman desire. he cares, he loves, and he beats the ass of those who make you upset)

8. Papang Phromphiriya as Dan [ONLY FRIENDS] (he was there for 3 episodes and was an absolute hottie. his kisses with nick were breathtakingly delicious, i have no notes)

9. Freen Sarocha as Samanan Anantrakul [GAP] (did i watch gap yet? no. but i've seen enough clips of this show to know that i'm love with this woman)

10. Fah Yongwaree as Jean [THE WARP EFFECT] (i would do literally anything she asked me to do, i'm not kidding)

I also have to make an honorable mention here to add Piploy Kanyarat as May in Wednesday Club. Listen to me, I need Piploy in a GL next year. I'm on my knees begging. Please.

and also, Janhae as Nim and Joong Archen as Tony in The Warp Effect. I just thought that you know, we already have two The Warp Effect characters in this list, 4 is a little bit too much.

i think most of my moots, if not all, have done this thread already, but feel free to do it and tag me if that's of your interest. i would love to see it.

#midway through this i asked myself if i was supposed to list men and then went back to the title and saw it was just characters #so i'm fine #thank you for tagging me #10 QL Characters I Desire Carnally #also i struggled a bit because i would easily add gaipa and ayan and sand in this list #but that wouldn't be fun so i picked one of each

doodles of the puff himself !!

#i noticed in most of the mayta knight sketches (which ill post more when i remember) Kirby looks. Very funny #being new to drawing these characters i was just making it up as i went #so i thought it’d be fun to do a doodle sheet while i watched the new g5 mlp chapter #Kirby’s becoming my go to thing to doodle #cause it makes me feel like i actually know how to draw dynamic poses #it’s like dynamic poses but without the (shudders) anatomy #the nice thing is it also means he’s way easier to animate… #…hey wait does anyone actually read these? if u do #then hi #and thank you #kirby #kirbyposting #kirby of the stars #sword kirby #sand kirby #sleep kirby #parasol Kirby #yarn Kirby #idk if those were even worth tagging whatever uhhh #my art or something #oh.

George Sand knows what people want: fashionable, glossy haired twinks with riding crops in their hands, questioning gender roles and essencialism
