IT'S DONE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIRBY!!!
If you've been following me the last month, you've seen me posting invitations to join Kirby Birthday Collab. Well, as today is 27th, I'm proud to present the result of this collab!!
This collab ended up even bigger than the last year's one. When last year we mainly had only Dream Friends (with some special guests like Morpho, Galacta and Elfilin), this year we've got characters from many more groups, including villains! We've almost left no one behind lol
The image above might be a bit scuffed (anti-AI protection, and all that), but no worries! You can click on it to see full, uncompressed image and see everyone's work that's been put into this!
A HUGE thank you to everyone who participated, and to everyone who wanted but either learned about it too late or didn't manage - don't worry!

GUYS CAN WE **PLEASE** TALK ABOUT THIS
DO YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT DAMIAN GAVE TO EACH OF HIS FELLOW BAT SIBLINGS??? Because these are all real established items in DC canon!!
I’m going to work my way back from Dick, because, OMG. 
Damian gave Dick the Sword of Sin. If that sounded vaguely familiar to you, you might be an Azrael fan because that is his preferred blade to use. What is so special about this sword??? It’s ability:  The Sword of Sin can be ignited with the mind of the wielder, if the person is powerful enough. The sword has the ability to conjure in the mind of its victims all of the sins for which they are guilty or have not atoned for.       Golly gee, I wonder who this might be super effective against. You know. Giant bat guy with a guilt complex bigger than Texas. You can bet your butt Dick is going to send Bruce through a series of ‘Nam war flashbacks before this series is over. I can absolutely see why Damian would give Dick this weapon here, as he’s known Bruce the longest. I can easily see what part in this story Dick is going to be playing as he clearly has the most directly effective weapon against Batman. Damian’s favoritism here is both sweet and a little cruel if you think about the context much. 
Now let’s talk about Stephanie’s weapon, and yes she very much is Damian’s older sibling even if she isn’t a Wayne. Damian gave her the Coup-Stick of Black Bison (A DC Super Villain.) What can this staff do???   The mystical power of the coup-stick can animate material objects and in so doing, command these objects to do its bidding. This power cannot affect living biological material, but can affect non-living organic tissue. Black Bison once used the coup-stick to re-animate the stuffed remains of a white stallion (as well as other animals). Black Bison has also used the coup-stick to control the weather, such as summoning a strong wind to deflect attackers.      Guys Damian gave Stephanie a weapon that will allow her to call on back-up, and COMMAND her own creations, a weapon that allows her to be a leader!! Something she has wanted for a long time??? Also, it sounds like it has the power to control the weather??? Damian really said #girlboss and how much he loves her without actually saying it. I cannot stress enough how well DC could do her justice in this series if they at least tried.
Now, wow. Damian really straight up gave Jason’s dramatic ass the actual Trident of Poseidon, which is an unbreakable weapon that that serves as an extension of the wielder’s own power. Damian really gave Jason not only a King’s weapon, but a godly weapon. What other powers it has might not be relevant to whatever power it might awaken with Jason as its wielder.       Damian really cut out the middle man and just said, “Look, you are stupidly strong. I’m going to give you a stupidly strong weapon. Have at ye!” And you know Jason is going to wield that thing like he’s Poseidon, rightful ruler of the sea. I literally cannot wait to see Jason just absolutely power-housing his way through whatever gets in his way.  
Lastly, but not least in the slightest, Damian gave Tim the Cloak of Cagliostro! Which I want to acknowledge right off the bat, 🎶one of these things is not like the others~🎶 And thank Rao for that, because:  The Cloak of Cagliostro is a magical item which allows the wearer to teleport, and to become intangible, and invisible.      That is the *cutest* Easter Egg ever! Gotham Knights acknowledgement of Tim’s teleporting anyone????? Tim was the only one Damian gave a defensive weapon, and not an offensive weapon to. And that makes sense, because Tim is a defensive fighter! Tim never has to be the strongest person in the room. He just needs to be clever enough to use what he knows to win. Instead of giving him a weapon to swing around, Damian gave him something that Tim could use to protect himself, and actively use to make ALL of his skillsets stronger, not just his fighting power!!! This! Is! NOT! Damian looking down on Tim or considering him weaker. He’s playing to Tim’s strengths! He literally gave his big brother a cloak that straight up is like a cheat-code of meta-powers that would suit Tim SO WELL, because he knows Tim will be able to use those abilities to bullshit levels of effectiveness!! 
It genuinely looks like thought went into what weapons each of the Robins were given. I know fanon likes to bash on Damian or bash on his relationship to his siblings, or vice-versa, but in canon it has been clear for some time now that Damian considers all former and current Robins his family. (Including Tim. He refers to Tim as Timothy nowadays, and calls him his brother, that’s not fanon) No matter if Damian is not himself right now, he’s genuinely looking out for all of their best interests, and is ensuring that each one of them is as well-equipped as possible. 
Regardless, genuinely curious to see how each of these weapons will be used by their respective Robins, and how this will all end up. Hopefully, it ends with a giant group hug that will break the internet. (Also, ngl, I hope if Tim gets a new superhero identity soon his new suit will play off of Gotham Knight’s Tim’s abilities or be based off this cloak. Just think that would be neat ✨)

Can I have a yandere Poseidon with a Muichiro reader?
With him reacting that reader was able to give him a fatal injury?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
warning: violence, ooc, muichiro!fem!reader.
Poseidon refused to believe that a mortal soul could have the strength and the reputation to stand in the audience chamber of Hades’ palace, let alone a swordswoman even be granted permission to be by his side as a guard. 
 Like him, Hades is the very definition of a king: one without supporters and no need for scheming. He fought alone against the Titans during the Gigantomachy, and ruled over the underworld without so much as batting an eyelid whenever a crisis emerged. So why? The tyrant of the ocean thought irked. So why in the world would my brother need someone like that when we gods are already the definition of perfection?
Yes, it is a terrible thing that the Bifrost had been destroyed by the wretched human Nostradamus, but surely another god could more easily protect the gates between Helheim and Valhalla than an organization that had been created to exterminate demons? 
No. He refused to believe it. Hades was much smarter than this. And he will prove it, in a duel. He raised his trident and challenged the spacey-eyed human…who didn’t even seem to be listening at all. 
“I refuse.” The mortal said bluntly. “Lord Hades has not given permission to have a duel in his own audience chamber, nor would he ever do so because it would be a pain to clean up afterwards. The servants would get mad too. My blade is to be drawn against demons, not a god. And I happen to like my position, so…I’m not gonna. I’m respectfully declining.”
“[First Name], we have discussed this already,” Hades said stonily. “Watch your tongue around my guests.” The mortal immediately went silent, [Eye Color] orbs gazing off into the distance. 
The lord of the underworld sighed. “Apologies, little brother, she can be a bit -”
“She has disrespected the ones who are superior to her in every way.” Poseidon growled, pointing the tip of his trident at her sinewy frame. “And she will pay for that insult with her life. Or she will prove herself worthy of standing by your side, right here, and I will forgive these transgressions against us.”
“It is Lord Hades’ decision to entrust me with the responsibility of looking after the Bifrost.” [First Name] said. “I refuse to waste my energy -”
‘[First Name], do it. Now.”
“Fine.” 
Poseidon watched as the tiny mortal dressed from head to toe in black descended down the steps of the dias, unsheathing her sword with a push of her thumb. “Try to land a lethal hit on me. Refrain from using any attacks that could damage the audience chamber.” She said, ignoring the icy frown on Poseidon’s face, daring to look at him with that spaced-out, bored expression. Poseidon got into position, raising his trident to the level of his eyes and waited for the human to strike. 
And she did. Not once, but twice; the hilt of her sword rammed into his solar plexus, then she elbowed him in the chin. Quickly regaining his balance, Poseidon thrusted his trident forward, aiming at the center of her body. She sidestepped and rammed her sword into his right side, ribbons of crimson flowing through the cut. 
Hades was, of course, furious and glared at her icily. She just blinked, shrugging her shoulders before sheathing the sword back into its teal scabbard. 
“He wanted me to prove that I was capable of doing my job, and I have done so. He’s a god anyway, that wound will heal quickly. He promised that anything I did would be forgiven, so it worked out in the end. If that is all, may I go? It’s about time for the rotation of shift change at the Bifrost. I need to make sure everything is secure.”
Hades sighed tiredly, waving her off with a flick of his hand. Poseidon watched in stunned silence as she bowed deeply to him, gliding across the floor and out of the audience chamber, shutting the massive door behind her. The black lacquered scabbard of her sword shimmered a dark blue beneath the chandelier’s light, if only for a brief moment. 
Although his older brother was profusely apologizing and making promises to properly discipline the Demon Slayer, Hades’ words did not reach Poseidon’s ears. Curiosity, desire, and excitement thrummed in his blood even as it continued to seep onto the floor.  
He wanted her. He needed her in his court beneath the ocean waves, to hear her silver tongue and bask in her loyalty towards him, to obey his orders without question. She is…perfection. 
Surely Hades did not need her any longer if there are other Demon Slayers to take up the mantle of protecting the Bifrost, yes?

6996 au based off of Mukuro & Chrome from KHR:
Hospitalized with an abusive family who doesn’t care for him & with a failing body, Harry is about to die. Tom, a wandering wraith, finds himself in the mind of Harry on his deathbed. Tom is powerful, but his body is unavailable. Currently, his only solace is his mindscape. Interesting, that it led him to Harry’s own mind... Seeing how similar they are, he strikes Harry with a deal: Let HJP become his host— and in return, TMR’s magic will repair and save him. HJP agrees and acts as TMR’s vessel to the outside world. TMR’s presence is tied to the trident HP holds— if it is destroyed, his magic on HP’s body will fail, since it’s being supported by “illusionary organs”. TMR will switch places with HP to deal with those who hurt his cute vessel and to make a new spear and enforce his magic :D

For my own memory, in the hopes that Scar will put yesterday´s stream on his VODs channel because it was amazing and featured among other things:
Scar calling Etho “the Maple Prince”
Xisuma trolling Scar by mixing up Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, and Harry Potter
Mumbo showing Scar the llama death chamber, and Scar praising him for being weird
Scar and Mumbo having a conversation about social media and AI
Scar telling Etho not to worry and that he´s thinking about moving the mail box himself (after all he had two best-selling redstone shops so surely he´s qualified!); Etho: well now I´m worried… But right afterwards Etho says people forget that Scar is actually quite skilled at the game
Etho is just interrupting people today and Scar suggests just collecting people to procrastinate
I approve of Scar encouraging Etho to participate in MCC again
Etho asking how Scar got stamps already, Scar saying he´s been a part of a lot of Life series, Etho: “you and your wily words, you can get anything you want…”
Big Salmon decreed mercury = good
Cleo shows up! “lag busting” is the new “it lagged into my inventory”
Scar definitely not encouraging Cleo to kill all other villagers after setting up her own trading hall. Cleo wants organic free range villagers.
Cleo trying to sell the monstrosolith as a giant billboard
Cleo proved she can do valley girl voice, Scar and Etho are shocked. Then they´re discussing what "no cap" means. (Etho on stream: “big true, no cap.”) They talked about poggers, and Scar going wild with his pants off (after Cleo exploded them), and Etho didn´t know what Stitch is.
Scar starts talking about Disney and it takes him a minute to realize Cleo and Etho have run away
More maple syrup discussion (Etho telling Cleo if she likes the brand she gets it´s fine), and a frantic ride-by and log-out by Grian
Cleo and Scar want to start a cult. Etho wants to be a frat instead, something cooler. Frats have fewer rules, they´re more like “pants off, it´s fine.” Scar says he´d ask too many questions to be in a cult, Etho points out he could be cult leader. Cleo immediately offers to be his second, the person who does all the dirty work.
Shoe talk. Scar shows off his twelve-year-old shoes on stream.
Making fun of Etho´s set-up! Scar is horrified. Etho talks about his Kleenex box where his mike stands. It matches his desk! It has his settings written on it! Also his space bar broke during DO2 but he got used to it. Scar decides they need reinforcements and calls Bdubs over. Ren also shows up.
Etho mentions he didn´t get a Decked Out 2 desk mat (took to long to think about it) and Tango logs in to write in chat that he´s disappointed and logs out again
A wild Iskall approaches in the distance. Etho: trident brother!
Etho invented the minecart shuffle
Cleo: "I always want you to kill people, Scar. ...no not Etho."
And Etho leaves to shuffle snow like the Canadian cryptid he is
(how dare Ren interrupt Bdubs before he can give his current opinion on the kleenex box)
"Etho´s not one to lie" (are you sure about that? ^^)
...I look away for two seconds and did Mumbo just call himself a panda in chat. I was later told: a panda fiat! Which is a car, and Iskall is a Ferrari
Moonlanding with Gem! And some talk about bases and criticism. Gem: "I love making Etho mad," “Let Etho be mad,” What´s he gonna do, all he´s gonna do is go oh snappers ^^ "Scar, you are my Etho"

Favorite animal: Honestly I love pretty much all of them but if I had to, like. Cohabitate with one? Cats. God's favourite bastards. Also partial to polyphemus moths, the common brown bat, june beetles, golden moles, the silky tree anteater, poison dart frogs, hawks, chimney swifts, and nautuluses, too.
Cereal of choice: I am. Not a cereal person. Fruit loops?
Are you a visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learner? Visual. 100%. Everything I do and use is organized by color. I will remember your birthmarks and tattoos and piercings and scars long before I remember your name or anything else about you. I forgot my own name once. It's bad
First pet: A big black cat.
Favorite scent: Oh, this is hard. I have a coconut shampoo that reminds me of my mom, and a white musk and oud perfume that makes me think of Cairo, and a plum/vanilla/white musk lotion that smells like the last week of school before summer vacation. A bottle of my dad's cologne he let me keep for my 16th birthday. Frankincense. Lilacs. Sunscreen. Cedarwood. Pine chips. Pumpkin. Clean laundry. I dont think I can pick just one.
Do you believe in astrology?  Not even a little bit. Sure is fun, tho!

And finally, do you write/draw/create? if so, use this as an opportunity to shamelessly (😉) promote yourself!
I love to draw and oaint and sculpt and sew, but spend a lot of time at work and have some issues with hypersomnia so it doesn't happen as much as I'd like. Wish I could promote myself better because I miss creating but... I don't know. Maybe I'll make something in the morning.
@anchored-trident thanks for the nom'! ♡ This one was fun :)
Nominations (either because we're mutuals or I find you interesting): @melancholysage @naamahdarling @sternenhimmel-mondnhimmel-mond @mist-the-wannabe-linguist @smlmsworld @mangotarot @genderfuckedpigeon @twofaced-gemini-withnobrush

NSR Halloween DLC ideas, just in time for Spooky Night!
The soundtrack for the Halloween DLC would feature instruments associated with the holiday being incorporated into the songs, such as pipe organ and theremin.
The Bosses
DJ Subatomic Supernova
DJSS is a scarecrow, wearing a straw hat, flannel shirt, and denim overalls (cut-off, of course!).
For the battlefield, the background of the Planetarium is a deep orange. The planets he uses to attack are replaced with pumpkins, and the asteroids are replaced by a swarm of crows.
Sayu
Sayu is a cute ghost girl. (I felt it would be fitting since she’s a floaty character.) She's slightly translucent and sports a ghostly wisp-like tail rather than her regular mermaid tail. Her colour palette features off-whites and faded pastels, making her look more etherial.
Sayu wears a tattered white Victorian/Lolita-style dress, lacy cuffs around her wrists and a little bow on her head.
For Phase 2, her dress becomes poofier and more elaborate as small ribbons resembling tentacles appear around her waist. Her trident is completely white.
Phase 3 has her go full-on ghost bride. Her dress has a huge multi-tiered skirt, her hair is adorned with a long veil, and her tentacle ribbons have grown to full length. Her deep-sea mode has her face turn glowing green with solid black eyes, making her resemble a spookfish, while her “tentacles” feature flickering lights similar to a bioluminescent jellyfish.
Her final form is basically your stereotypical bedsheet ghost shape with her legs sticking out the bottom.
Sayu’s team are dressed in dark wizard-like robes, and each of them are wearing masks like the ones worn by Lock, Shock, and Barrel from The Nightmare Before Christmas. 
For the battlefield, the “landscape” is dotted with jack-o-lanterns, tombstones, and dead trees. The background is changed to a seafoam green color, with wispy little ghosts flying about.
Yinu and Mother 
Yinu is dressed as a cute little witch. Her hair is in pigtails similar to her Christmas skin, and her witch hat is adorned with fall leaves and little jack-o-lanterns.
Mother, meanwhile, is a spooky Halloween tree with spiders. Her dress is a dark wood colour with translucent, ragged-edged sleeves, and she wears a thorny hairband and spiderweb earrings.
The ends of her “hair” have been dyed the same colour as her dress, and she wears both black lipstick and black nail polish.
When she grows bigger, her branches begin to sprout large thorns, which end up making her cage form look more like a spiderweb. (There are even little fake spiders sitting on top of it!)
For the battlefield, the stage is decorated to evoke a bountiful harvest, with pumpkins, hay bales, bundles of wheat, stalks of corn, apple trees, cornucopias, and garlands of leaves.
Both the gate and the giant piano hammers are adorned with thorny branches and autumn leaves.
1010 
1010 are pirate ghosts. (As a fun gag, Blue could wear two eyepatches instead of his sunglasses!)
Meanwhile, Neon J is their ghostly captain, complete with a captain’s hat, a sword at his belt, a fake parrot on his shoulder, and – once again – a fake beard attached to his screen head.
For the battlefield, the flying limousine is decked out to look like a pirate ship, with a mast, a crow’s nest, and a tattered sail.
(I felt 1010 as pirates would be fitting since they're a navy-themed boyband and Neon J was a captain in the navy.)
Eve 
Eve is dressed as Medusa.
Her dark green dress has a scaly pattern, and she accessories with a lot of gold, including spiralling gold sandals and a golden diadem crown.
Her hair has been dyed, shaped, and styled to look like several little writhing serpents.
Her backpiece is composed of even more snakes in gold and teal which wrap around her upper torso and spread out behind her like a peacock’s tail.
Eve’s pupils even become snake-like starting at Phase 2!
For the battlefield, Eve’s gallery has been transformed into an Ancient Greek temple, but with a postmodern/vapourwave twist. Stylized Greco-Roman columns with snakes wrapped around them line the walls, and an ancient looking gold chandelier hangs from the ceiling. The left side would be eggplant purple while the right side would be cerulean blue.
If the player gets hit by the eye lasers from Eve’s giant statue, they’ll actually turn to stone and be frozen in place for a short time.
For Phase 2, on Mayday’s side, the snakes wrapped around the columns have grown larger and are now looming over Mayday, their faces twisted into angry snarls (representing Eve’s derisiveness and hostility towards May).
Meanwhile, Zuke’s side features floating fragments of ruined columns (representing how lost and incomplete Eve felt after Zuke left her). 
Phase 3 is where it really starts to get trippy. Both rooms feature ruined columns and floating shards, along with giant brightly colored snakes slithering all over the background.
The shards in Zuke’s side reflect images of faces screaming in anguish, while the shards on Mayday’s side have limbs protruding from them- one shard has three legs protruding from them in reference to a trinacia. (Look up what a trinacia is to understand the reference!)
Tatiana
Tatiana is a vampire.
She wears black and red robes with bat wing-edged sleeves and a wide collar. Her earrings are coffin shaped, and she has small, pointed fangs that can be seen when she opens her mouth.
At the beginning of her battle, she starts throwing flaming bats.
For the battlefield, Tatiana's office/battle arena is made to feel like a vampire’s castle tower.
The whole room is lit with a deep red glow, and the tall windows that feature the NSR murals are topped with pointed arches, giving them a Gothic look.
You can even see some glass bottles filled with (ahem) red liquid on Tatiana’s desk.
Meanwhile, the Goolings' stage outside is decorated with jack-o-lanterns and hanging skeletons.
DK West
DK West is dressed as Frankenstein FrankenWest!
His look consists of neck bolts, stitch markings, and a dark ragged recolour of his original outfit.
His bull shadow puppet has matching neck bolts, which even emit shadowy electricity when it appears during the battle.
Bunk Bed Junction
Mayday
Mayday is dressed as an imp, wearing a bright red dress with black sleeves and waistcoat, black wings, red horns, and a red tail.
Her guitar is deep purple and splattered with glowing orange paint. It emits a wolf howl when she powers it up for the Showstopper.
Zuke 
Zuke is a werewolf. Ragged clothes with fake fur poking out, extra fur attached to his forearms (don’t ask how got it on there), pointed ears, a bushy tail, pointed fangs, his nose has been painted. Pretty simple.
His drumsticks are splattered with glowing green paint and tipped with tiny light-up pumpkins.
The Other NPCs

A song featuring George Harrison and Ringo Starr.
Tumblr media
Ringo and George, 1966
A hitherto forgotten soundtrack created more than half a century ago, featuring Maestro Saroda Ustad Aashish Khan performing in tandem with the iconic Beatles By George Harrison and Ringo Starr has now been found, restored and released - much to the delight of fans and music lovers.
The soundtrack, titled ‘Radhe Shaam', which was allegedly recorded in 1968 at Trident Studios at the height of Beatlemania, was released on November 10, 2021. In a song produced and written by Suresh Joshi, a veteran journalist and TV presenter with a long track record, soulful performance Ustad Khan is gracefully accompanied by a rhythm guitar George and Ringo's drumming.
youtube
Mister Joshi, who was friends with George Harrison, was the very person who introduced him to the famous Indian musician Ravi Shankar, who had a great influence on the star and, as is known, taught him how to play the sitar.
At that moment, George and Ringo were taking a break from recording Hey Jude in the studio.
“I was working on the music for my documentary ‘East meets West’ when George (Harrison), who was a good friend of mine, offered to play for the soundtrack. As soon as he decided to participate, Ringo also kindly came to the rescue,” Joshi recalled.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
George with engineer Ken Scott at Trident Studios in late October 1970. 
However, as soon as the recording was completed, Suresh took the master tape to his attic in his Birmingham home and forgot about it until years later he met Deepak Pathak, co-founder of Maharaja Organics.
“I became friends with Deepak when I was alone at home during the pandemic. During one of our conversations, I told him that I had produced and recorded a song with maestro Saroda Ustad Aashish Khan, Ringo Starr and George Harrison, which was never released,” Joshi explained.
Tumblr media
“At that time The Beatles were in the process of breaking up, and they had various problems, so no one wanted to [release the track],” Aashish also said.
Tumblr media
Pathak convinced Joshi to let him listen to the soundtrack.
As soon as Pathak heard this ‘fundamental work’ and became convinced that it should be released to a wider audience. He sent the master tape to the music producer Suraj Shinhu, who restored it and prepared it for release.
“I am delighted that we have managed to save this fundamental work of Suresh. I persevered with the recovery process, which was technically difficult, but extremely effective,” Shinh said.
Tumblr media
John Barham, Ringo and Suresh Joshi
Despite the fact that this song was written more than fifty years ago, it is still relevant and will be close to modern youth, Joshi agreed.
“The song revolves around the concept that we are all one, and that the world is our oyster shell, something that we all realized during this pandemic. A song written more than 50 years ago is more relevant today than ever,” Joshi concluded.
Earlier, the track was given to 100 visitors of the Liverpool Museum to listen to The Beatles. Museum Manager Paul Perry said that the invited audience who listened to the song, including Mr. Joshi, “fell in love with it.”
Tumblr media
“Without any doubt, it was George's guitar, [and] it felt like he was here among us. And, also, without a doubt, the drums belonged to Ringo.”
However, opinions and memories about the time and circumstances of the track's recording differ.
From Matt Hurwitz:
“Actually, this is not 1968, but the song was recorded at Trident on March 10, 1970, as described in detail in my article about the recording of "All Things Must Pass". George helped Aashish Khan, who was asked to write an Indian-themed pop song for an Indian director, but the track was never used.”
Tumblr media
The session was dedicated to the future project of Aashish Khan and John Barham. The musicians were Hashish Khan, George Harrison, Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Billy Preston and Klaus Voormann (Foreman). Everyone, with the exception of Khan, will take part in the recording of the album George's “All Things Must Pass".
So he plays the lead guitar Clapton, and George plays the rhythm guitar. Khan talked about a song called ’In Praise Of Lord (We Are All Children Of God)' that they were supposed to record ten years ago. It looks like they also recorded a song by Mr. Joshi ‘Radhe Shaam'. At that time, the song had no title, which may explain why it was not mentioned for many years.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pete Drake and George
Album John Barham and Aashisha Khan was released in 1973 under the name ”Jugalbandi" on Elektra Records, both superstar tracks of March 1970 did not hit it.

The first time Pix watched Jimmy bite into the fleshy part of a raw cod freshly caught, it did not occur to him that this could be cannibalistic. Late at night in the Codfather’s shack, there were other things to be distracted by. He had never before wondered where the Codfather head had come from, nor the head that Jimmy sported now. Perhaps he had assumed it was made of other types of fish, or other organic things like leather. Jimmy spat a bone into his webbed hands, and crushed it in his fist.
It was the next day, at the docks on the mouth of the sea, as he squinted at the surface of the water and tried to tell the shimmering green of the codfolk from the cod underwater, that all of this struck him square between the eyes. The image of Jimmy’s sharp teeth impressed itself on the back of Pix’s eyelids, and he rubbed them vigorously with his knuckles.
“And you’ll send the reinforcements soon?” Jimmy said, picking at the skin of his lips.
“As agreed,” said Pix in return. At the shoreline, an old fisherman skewered a salmon on the end of a spear. He decided not to bring it to Jimmy’s attention.
“This is important.” Jimmy had not stopped staring. It was jarring to see his brown eyes pierce at him so intensely. Normally the Codfather Head covered them. The makeshift one did not. “I can’t stress that enough.”
“We will get back the Head, Codfather.” Pix gripped his trident tighter as the fisherman threw the salmon into a large pile of other fish.
“Right. Right, of course. Silly, it’s silly- it would be silly to think we wouldn’t!” A beat. The ocean slowly carved at the docks, rushing in his ears. “Right?”
Pix’s head hurt, and his eyes throbbed from having rubbed them so roughly. Last night, Jimmy had eaten the eyes out of his dinner. The image of it wouldn’t go away. But the Jimmy standing here, shaking at the thought of dragons and Void, or worse, at the thought of losing respect, could not have those razor sharp teeth. Incongruent. It felt incongruent.
Young codfolk climbed out of the water as the first rumbles of thunder rolled in. One lad had in his mouth a fish. Pix could not identify its species.
“I should get going before it becomes dangerous to travel.”
“Of course, of course.” The sea thrashed. Fishermen hauled barrels under tents and into shacks. The wind made Jimmy’s fins whip around, and he had to put a hand on top of his headpiece to keep it from flying away. No one gave wide breadth to the Codfather. Children rushed past, barely avoiding knocking into him. Folks spoke loudly and unceremoniously. In fact, no one seemed to notice his presence. Jimmy seemed to pay no mind.
“It’ll be fine,” Pix said, quietly. There was no reason to doubt otherwise.

There is a cabin out in the Arctic.
You would expect it to be cold. You would run your fingers along the shelves, the picture frames, the chests and expect a layer of dust to reveal itself. You would expect it to be abandoned, considering the owner is no longer around.
Instead, there is a fresh baked pie on the windowsill, steam wafting off its flaky crust. The flavour changes, as it seems it is switched out quite regularly, just like the notes in pretty pink ink left beside them that all end with “I miss you, Protesilaus.”
Instead, footprints cover the earth around it. The patterns and shapes of these tracks are unmistakably odd. From the tiny piglin marks that run around with childish abandon, to the goat hooves that come to the front door and stand there for hours staring- like they’re waiting hopelessly for someone to arrive, to the hooked claws of an enderman that track snow inside when it tentatively enters and finds the room strangely familiar and comforting, despite not remembering why.
Instead, something is missing from the bookshelf. The previously immaculately organized collection of novels has a gap where ‘The Adventures of Theseus’ once sat. Now it resides in the basement, piled beneath a large blanket where someone has been sleeping. The pages are getting worn and creased with how often the book is flipped through. Like someone is trying to find the answers in its words.
Instead, there is a song in the air. Not always musically, though the guitar tunes are often hauntingly raw when they tremble in the air, and the notes sung barely make it through with no empty gaps where someone should be. Sometimes the song is in the form of a story. About a farm. An empire. An arena. A battlefield. A cavern, a festival, a pit, a war zone. Yet there are still a million more stories to tell.
Instead, the possessions are clean. Every so often, worn hands trace along emeralds with a wet washcloth. They sharpen the famously named sword and trident to wicked points. They draw lines along the art on the walls, especially on the face, hoping that time will not eventually steal the memory of how it looked from his mind and praying the Lady will bring him peace.
There is a cabin out in the Arctic.
You would expect it to be cold. You would run your fingers along the shelves, the picture frames, the chests and expect a layer of dust to reveal itself. You would be wrong.
The cabin is not abandoned.
The owner is no longer around, but it will always be his home.

Divine Wrath (Trailer)
Tumblr media
TW: Gore. Skip if you are not good with descriptions of blood and violence
Pairing: Adrian Tepes x Reader
Summary: A simple task they had mentioned. A simple chore for a God blessed warrior like you. Retrieving the abducted women from the bandits. How had Adrian not seen the sinister gleam in their eyes. 
AN: Should I continue this? I kinda like it and wrote it on a whim. lmk :)
Tumblr media
Mangled limbs rotting away from the bodies are a sight Adrian never wanted to see. Organs spewed around. 
Blood on the walls, blood on the ceilings and floors. Dismembered remains of what seemed to be human carcasses were not better sight. The silence that settled itself over the every pore of existence was unnerving. Adrian could not bring himself to look at anything for too long. But he had to look for you. He had to find you. 
Were you perhaps buried under the corpses piled up in every corner. Arranged with a deliberate caution that was worse than the ones left without a care. A jar full of teeth lay ominously tipped at the counter. 
Bodies skewered on tridents. Adrian feared every sight. He was terrified of seeing your face plastered in the unrelenting grasp of freezing death. 
He steps through every room that seemed to have been brimming with the dance of death and suffering. As if the demons of hell themselves had carved every fiber of the mansion.
He walks until his steps stumble. Not a common occurrence given the courtesy of Dracula’s blood in his veins.
But he sees you. Or at least a silhouette of you. Your long hair matted and pooling by your knees. Flowing around you by the likes of an untamed waterfall merging into a river. Your face is turned away from him. But much to his relief he senses the steady heartbeat that thrums from your body. 
In a mansion reigned by death he finds you breathing. He does not wait a moment before rushing to you. Adrian clutches your shoulders in his grasp and tips your chin up to look at your face. His hands tremble at the feel of your skin under him. Your solid form. You were here.
His hands slip on the sticky coating of blood that covers your entire body. Your naked uncovered body adorned only by the splashes of blood. As if you bathed in a spring sickly red that clung to your skin. Nothing else but a coating of blood. Your eyes that look up beyond him are pupil-less. Vacant of life and of death. Your empty gaze is focused on the altar in front of you. An altar full of your offerings. The innards of the the men who had brought you here. 
You are piliant under his hands. Your breath is cold. But Adrian cannot care. He pulls you into his arms. He can make it right. He can bring you back. There has to be a way. Some way to get you back. 
No one…not even your God could take you. Not now…not yet. Not in this manner. Not so painfully. 
“(Name),” he calls you gently but full of a firm command. His fingers cup the soft arch of your neck. “Please look at me. Follow my voice,” he calls for you. You always answered in the past. You had to now. Not this soon. He was destined to lose you but not so quick. 
He shouldn’t have left you alone. He should have seen the suspicious glances of the villagers who took in your heritage. Even as they begged for your aid. 
A simple task they had mentioned. A simple enough chore for a God blessed warrior like yourself. Retrieving the abducted women from the bandits. A rescue your moral would never allow you to step back from. How had Adrian not seen the sinister gleam in their eyes?
How did their heart not melt at your assuring smile as you accepted their job free of cost? Even when you left your meagre coin to the skittering children of their town. 
There were no women. You were the offering. To the crooked cult who wanted the power inside you. The cult that had marked every house of the village with a bag full of gold. He had found too late. Not days later until one of the drunk patrons at the tavern had spilled the truth at the tavern. 
Warriors of Kwon were nothing more than beacons of power to the world. Luring the greed of power from the ones that desired to possess the blessing of their God. 
You were one of them. Born with the light of divine and a heart bigger than ocean. This naivety perhaps was a price to be paid for the blessing of Kwon. 
Kwon, the god of poor, of warriors, and justice. Your God, who had chosen you even before your birth. Your God who led you to him. The very God, who devoured your soul every time you did his bargain. 
Kwon demanded your very existence. He burned and reigned until your joints screamed in protest and your mortal shell burned with the light that burnt it. 
Adrian was familiar with Kwon’s light. It was the same light that had brought him back to the world of living, in your lap as you chanted a prayer for him in the unlit halls of his father’s castle. It had taken 5 years of your lifespan to bring him back. A bargain that had cost you several grey hair.
And now yet, another bargain. Another trade had cost you something. A cost greater than any. But Adrian will bring you back. Like you had. He will do it. He will drag your back from the clutches of Kwon, if need be it.

This is for @osarquivosmagnus who listened to my ramblings and inspired me to write this
Just so you know, I wrote this on the phone, while sick with cold, very late at night and English is not my first language, so if you find any mistakes, please tell me.
This is my first writing, hope you like it.
-------------------------
There are many avatars on the Quesadilla island. And that raise a question: does the Federation knows? Because if it wasn't an accident, and they needed especially avatars for whatever they needed, then the feds did really bad job at making sure that theirs guests didn't starve.
It was somewhat difficult to feed the certain fears. Of course, some people were doing okay, like Cellbit, with his enigmas and investigations, and Etoiles with his fights with codes, but morning crew had to make an effort.
Pac is going to visit Tubbo, when it happens, and just because they agreed to it, doesn't make it easy.
Normally, even with many different contraption, you could at least moved around, but now it looked like their number multiplied out of nowhere.
Even though, after several minutes of search, he could barely moved, Pac continue to advance. Then the flowers started blooming, clematis flowers, mostly blue, with little bit of pink ones there and there. They are wrap around conveyor belts, chests, pipes and boilers, and after pac tries move on, they start to cling to him, trying to entwine him.
Pac is trying not to panic, but after a while he starting become nervous, when he could hardly move because of the mechanisms, and the vines start to wrap around his body, hands, legs, even throat, after which he completely panicking. He tries to call Tubbo, but to no avail, as sudden rain deafening his words.
After a while, Pac still moving, even if slow, rain stops and space clears. He sees Tubbo, sulking, trying to make some gadgets. Pac greets him, and Tubbo turns around and wearily smiles. After a while, when Pac calmed down and Tubbo is cheered up, Pac seats with him on some chest and starts to tell him news. They don't talk about what just happened. After Pac leaves, he finds blue flowers in his hair.
Fit is flies with his trident, and when he landed in lake, hand suddenly grabs his ankle and yanks him. He immediately goes down like anchor. Behind him, his attaker then seize hold of his hands and pulls him down. Fit tries to break free, but soon he begin to drown. Seemingly small lake looks like an deep ocean. Water starts to crush him. The last what he sees is beautiful, glowing blue eyes.
Then Fit wakes up on the beach. Sun is blazing, and there is salt on he's teeth, but he is alive. Next to him a chest. He looks inside and finds fresh water bottles, healing potion and a stack of catfish meat. Fit smile and think about certain deadly mermaid.
Buried is somewhat easy to handle, but what do you do with slaughter, especially on restricted island? Where you need to survive against hostile environment and organization, and easier to do so is together, and fighting will only interfere with this goal? Well, you need to get…creative.
They have a place prepared in advance. Big area, thousands of of blocks from spawn, fenced and lit up against mobs. Beforehand they making armor, potions, weapons. Then, early in the morning, so they don't disturb anyone else, teleport to the arena and start fighting with each other.
Each round different – sometimes it's two versus one, sometimes it's everyone against each other. They don't stop attacking unless a pre-arranged hand sign is shown. Everything goes into action – swords, axes,bows, harm potions, dynamite, lava, fireworks. Fit would be very happy if he would have End crystals, but alas.
After a while, they will start to hear a music. Heavy, roaring drums, horns, electric guitars and more. After that, they start to fight more fiercely, ruthlessly, relentlessly. It doesn't matter for them; when they die – they will pick up their stuff and fight again, when their weapons and armor breaks – they will fight with just their fists. As time goes, arena becomes cluttered, as their corpses and pieces of weapons piles up.
It will continue until sunrise, before first rays of light. They stop, lower their fists, and sit together. They eat and heal. After their corpses turn to bones, they burn them to ash. And they watch sunrise together and think that they are lucky to have each other.
