@naavispider ‘s “If you playing me that mean my home aint home” is such a good fic <3 thank you for writing it and sharing with us! <3 the above is from chapter 33, this poor boy needs more Janine in his life 

#I hope it's okay I posted it without asking first! #avatar #spider socorro #avatar the way of water #miles spider socorro #yes that is the I See You moment #I still don't know if I want speech bubbles here or not so for now no speech bubbles #I geniuenly don't rememebr if that phrase goes with the gesture or not but here we are #I'm taking Norm's lessons from the first movie as a base for that

Personally I find it really funny that based on what the twins said in the Book 2 finale re: having to tell their mom about what happened to Unalaq, it's literally canon that Unalaq's wife a) exists, b) is alive, and c) is just chilling in the Northern Water Tribe

She took one look at all the spirit fuckery her husband was getting up to and went "Well that's none of my business" and honestly I respect that

#oh and when I say spirit fuckery I mean it in both the literal and metaphorical sense. blame kat's latest raava and vaatu fic #yeah I'm just gonna start posting random LoK opinions on here now. this blog's been dead long enough #not really an incorrect quotes girly anymore sorry #not even a girl anymore. but you know #most of my red lotus and oc posting will remain on my personal blog though bc no one wants to see that #anyway. yes. Unalaq's wife. when I say the avatar franchise has a mom problem this is exactly what I mean #80% of characters don't have a mom. the moms that are alive either have little to no screen time or mentions #or they're basically Schroedinger's mom in the sense that they exist but not really #the exceptions being like. pema and suyin. and maybe senna though she also has very little screentime #my point is. the twins are younger than korra. I know avatarverse has a precedent for putting kids on the throne. looking at you zuko #but really we should have gotten unalaq's wife as chief of the nwt #introduced her in book 3 during the lead up to p'li's prison break #but that's just my objectively correct opinion #northern water tribe chief raspberry when #(according to avatar wiki her name is malina so I've been calling her raspberry in my head ever since I found out #malina means raspberry in russian that's why. probably in a bunch of other slavic languages too idk I'm not an expert #and she shares a name with katara and sokka's weird white stepmom from the comics which no sane person considers canon. so that's fun) #the legend of korra #unalaq

Stupid Mansk H/Cs nobody asked me for

Look at him. He looks like a cop, but he's clearly a former marine living in some sort of suburbia, with 5 dogs and 6 cats swarming him whenever he returns home after a tour. Terrible dog/cat dad. If he's handing you his phone, it's because he's got a new picture to show you.

Probably called Arty because his hippy parents thought they'd have a girl and they'd get to call her Artemis. Everyone thinks it's short for Arthur and everyone gets a little spooked seeing his ID.

He probably has a sister who looks after his pack. He was very distraught when he took the RDA contract, but it was good money and his parents' business had failed.

I bet he struggled loads on Pandora, trying to snatch lizards and small animals on science sorties and smuggle them back into his dorm to keep as pets, smuggling food from the messhall.

Queerplatonic bestie with Z-dog, she gives him chewing gum and they hit the shooting range together.

He signed up to project phoenix knowing it'd send a stipend to his family after his death.

When he wakes up as a recom she's here in the room (and no other recom) because she knows he'll be hit hard. He realises what's up and starts crying. He's dead, so all his pets are deads. And it's 15 years later, so maybe his parents too? He was always sending comms and they were always replying with updates from life back on earth.

Mansk goes to Z-dog later to ask her to come with him to the comms centre because he doesn't want to be alone in case there's nothing for him there. But sure enough, his sister started receiving the recom money, so she sent news and photos of her new kids and Ari's own cat's grandkids.

He's very quiet in general, careful of how he moves and where he steps.

Obviously he's a grill master, as pointed out by @ochomonos in their fab art of him. I think he'd be the most interested in Na'vi food customs.

What can I say? You can't grow up with hippy parents who make their own cheese and beer and not have interest in cooking.

He has a notebook in his tactical vest, and a good half of the pages are notes on edible food and na'vi cooking recipes translated by Spider for him.

If they make Quaritch and Varang a couple I WILL lose my mind (in a bad way).

[innsjovide]

huge pet peeve of mine is if you kill off a beloved character in fanworks (or like. actual works if its the canon story) or even suggest it, no matter what narrative significance this might have on the story being told, you'll suddenly be flooded by a billion people being like 'NO U CANT KILL THEM THEYRE IMMORTAL THEYLL LIVE FOREVER THIS IS WRONG'

#yes this is about korra yes im still pissy about it #the avatar fandom has such negative media literacy for a fandom of such a well written show #* lok isnt super well written but the original show is #if yall didnt know i used to write an 'earth avatar after korra' fic with some of my ocs #and while it was generally well received (for reasons ill never know the writing was trash) the overwhelming sentiment I got in feedback wa #HOW COULD YOU KILL KORRA SHES IMMORTAL I LOVE HER #like yeah i am number one korra stan too I love her but like. do you not understand the story I'm trying to tell here. #this discourse is coming back since atlas popular again and there was a teaser about canon avatar after korra (which is apparently a man ew #also its ironic bc korra fans all the time say 'lok isnt about aang it's korra's story now'. but yall are hypocrites #anyways LMAO #been thinking about my girl ever hadiyah saeed again #earth avatar extraordinair #it was like legend of genji but gay and i actually wrote 99 percent of it #so take that #innsjotxt #rant over

It's always white ppl judging natla's take on Katara smh.... like yeahhh she has rage but she does not only have that. She has an urgent need to preserve her culture, she feels guilty and grieves for her mother, she's compassionate and curious for the world. Y'all say what you want but I love to see a girl who chooses to be innocent despite the world taking her innocence way to early. But that's just my immigrant woc ass projecting so maybe I'm too biased.

Also, maybe they could add more rage in the second season's arc? This season was very focused on her guilt towards Kya's death. Maybe she needed to let those feelings out, so they could finally focus on her extremely justified rage.

The Inscribed

The very first concept I thought of for Lexical were the Inscribed, though ironically they are also what I have written the least about in my shorts. In a lot of ways Lexical began as a table top system and ultimately Inscribed reflects that as they were written to be the player characters.

Inscribed are humans who have a Title and an Element written into their very being by an Entity who calls itself Humanity. Based on their inscription they are capable of a wide variety of superhuman abilities. There are 4 basic Titles and 4 Basic abilities, 16 total basic inscriptions. There are then 12 advanced Titles and 8 advanced Elements. Inscribed can also further specialize into very specific and personal words for Titles and Elements with the concept that the more specific one becomes, the more powerful it gets; at the expense of how versatile their power is. A basic title is the most wide reaching an Inscribed could be, meanwhile a specialized title would be the most powerful it could be.

A Title represents how an Inscribed uses their Element. The basic Titles are: Knight, Mage, Thief, and Lord. A Knight is one who represents and is empowered by their element, often leading to advanced physical capabilities. A Mage is a wellspring of their element, spawning large quantities of it into the world and manipulating it as they see fit. A Thief is one who takes their Element from the world and uses it to empower themself, often seen as the inverse of a Knight. A Lord is someone who inspires and empowers their Element in others, often seen as the inverse of a Mage.

An Element is what an Inscribe affects using their Title. The Basic elements are: Diamond, Hearts, Spade, and Clubs. Each basic Element effectively represents a combination of two advanced Elements that make them up. Diamond is the Element of the Physical, the human body, and of Earth. Hearts is the Element of Mind, memory and active consciousness, and of Water. Spades is the Element of Spirit, the wellspring of human creativity and the unconscious mind, and of Air. Clubs is the Element of Soul, one’s ideal self, and of Fire.

This creates combinations such as a Knight of Clubs or a Lord of Hearts. A Knight of Clubs would be able to do things such as inspire themselves into a state of super endurance, or very literally ignite a flame inside of themself and heat up their body enough to melt metal. A Lord of Hearts meanwhile would be able to connect multiple minds together to form a temporary shared consciousness, or put others into a form akin to liquid.

The advanced Titles further the power of an Inscribed while specifying what exactly they do with their Element. The advancement of Titles follows a similar formula for each Title: Base Title (basic title), Played Straight (a restriction to the basic principles but with more power), Extreme (an extreme version of the basic), and Corruption (a corruption of the basic principles). For Knight: Paladin (true representation of Element), Crusader (affects self and the close space around them in a mage like manner), and Shape (becomes the Element). For Mage: Summoner (personifies Element), Sage (refines Element), and Ignorance (corrupts the concept of Element). For Thief: Jester (Takes and changes element, much like an Ignorance), Rebel/Void (destroys Element, void being a state in which the Element can not exist around the Inscribed), and Hero (takes and greatly empowers elf/others with element). For Lord: Leader (greatly Empowers/connects others), Baron/King (controls others with Element; Kings being able to control whole cities, but there can only be 4 of them at once), and Enchanter (greatly empowers objects with Element).

This creates combinations such as Hero of Soul and King of Hearts. A Hero of Soul is one who is able to steal the confidence and sense of self from others and can use it to empower themselves and allies. The King of Hearts is one who can control others through their conscious mind, effectively making either mind controlled puppets or an actual hivemind.

Beyond the Basic and Advanced Titles and Elements Inscribed can and will often make up their own. These can be left to the wilds of an Inscribed imagination, but continue to follow the same rules as before. The narrower the power, the stronger it is; the wider reach the power has, the less actual strength an Inscribe can put behind it. An example of this would be Form of Machines, a corrupted Knight who has to stick to the aesthetic and function of becoming a machine but are as such able to take on strong forms.

In a lot of ways an Inscription either ends up being a descriptor of who the Inscribed are, or who they will become. Those that use the Element of Clubs are often more confident, while Hearts users are more thoughtful and intelligent. A Lord is charismatic, while a Baron is controlling. So on and so forth.

So how does one become Inscribed? An Inscribed is made through an trigger event, which has different rules based on which generation an Inscribed comes from. The First Wave of Inscribed came to be starting at the year 2000, and there are only ~10,000 of them; they are chosen by being philosophically extreme and are triggered by life threatening events and personal turmoil. The Second Wave of Inscribed came to be starting 15 years later, 2015, and are characterized by having a more moderate and communal mindsight and are triggered by the same as the First Wave; it is unknown how many there are, but it is vastly more than the First Wave. The Third Wave are the current generation of Inscribed and again appeared 15 years later, during the year 2030; their themes are currently unknown, but their triggers are the same as the first two; they are definitely a larger generation than both previous combined, setting the theory that each was is exponentially bigger than the last.

Furthermore there is the concept of ‘Inheriting’ the place of a previous generation. If an Inscribed from the First Wave dies then their seat in that generation frees up, and someone else will Inscribe following the rules of that generation. It is one of the reasons that the First Wave hasn’t been completely killed off, regardless of their propensity to be violent and extreme; someone else, and of unknown quality, will simply take their place.

The First Wave came into the world and very quickly, and violently, began to mold it towards their ideals. The Second Wave came into this broken world and went about shoring it up and working with governments to stabilize what was left of the world. The Third Wave is an unknown element, far more likely to be criminal in nature but without the extremes of First Wavers.

Okay but when I look at the Disney Dreamlight Valley intro protagonist, all I see is Simone Ashley from Bridgerton.

I mean look at her! Tell me I’m wrong.

#I'm not mad about it #we did all say Simone Ashley looked like a Disney princess #also yes I DID break down and give Disney money for early access to this game #two different YouTubers I follow streamed themselves playing it and while this game is nothing like Kingdom Hearts obviously #it did remind me of how happy Kingdom Hearts made me in college so.... here we are #oops #(although I did not think through who I was going to role play as so now I get to stare at the avatar screen too long) #((no I never play games as myself that's weird))

[tossawary]

Listening to someone else watch the original ATLA again, just starting season 3, and there's this line where Aang suggests that it didn't just look like he died, but he DID actually die and Katara brought him back. And look, I don't know much about the lore introduced by TLOK, but this sounds like a really fun place to start an AU inspired by "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"'s take on the temporary death and resurrection of a cyclical chosen one: Aang is brought back to life and is STILL the Avatar, but his temporary death still also causes another Avatar to be born into the Southern Water Tribe (or Swamp People or refugees on some southern island, whatever).

Like, I know the Avatar is a reincarnation thing, but weird things can happen with spirits! Maybe this glitch in the cycle causes the spiritual equivalent of mitosis to happen to the Avatar and the spirit attached to them, so there's just two of them now! Maybe having two Avatars has some spiritual downsides, maybe not, it's up to whatever path you choose to explore in this AU.

I just think it would be really funny for post-canon 21yo Aang (and the Gaang and the White Lotus and all the spiritual / religious orders on the planet) to suddenly be confronted with a 10yo water tribe kid who is ALSO the Avatar.

A water tribe couple shuffle awkwardly up to Sokka, like, "Sooooo... we think our 10 year old daughter might be the Avatar...? She can, uh, bend all the elements and all that. Look at this shit." And Sokka is like, "Fuck, Aang is dead?!" Before he's like, "Wait, I saw Aang last week, this kid is way too old?!" And he has to hastily contact Aang like, "Hey, buddy, you're still alive, right?" And Aang can only reply, "Uhhh, last I checked, yes?!?!"

It's probably Sokka and Katara who put the pieces of the timeline together and figure out what caused this, because all of the other Avatars are probably initially like, "Yeah, I have no idea what's happening here. I'm you and you're me, but I'm also her and she's also me, and you and her are kind of the same person, but you're obviously different people now? Wow! Good luck figuring all that out, kid! You're really going places none of us have gone before! A real groundbreaker!"

Aang, through gritted teeth, "I am really not TRYING to do that, thank you!"

GOJO SATORU: IT'S YOU AND ME, THAT'S MY WHOLE WORLD

✩ ‧ ˚. synopsis: one kiss turns into two, and before you know it, an innocent gaming session turns into something more. (streamer!au)

contents: fem!reader. suggestive (kissing/making out). the ending can be interpreted as sex. non-sexual usage/mentions of lollipops bc i have a sweet tooth and i want a lollipop rn. i didn't really spend a lot of time on this one, but i thought i'd post it anyways. whatever, your favorite streamer boyfriend is back! did you miss him? (the answer is yes). -1K words.

"you're not that good, are you?" you ask with a grin, twirling a lollipop in between your fingers. in front of you, satoru's avatar gets shot down by a couple others for what seems like the hundredth time, and right on cue, satoru curses his bad luck. "you know, maybe you'd be better if you were actually focusing on the game."

"it's not my fault," satoru insists petulantly, a childish pout appearing on his face. he sticks out his bottom lip and rests his chin on top of your head. "how am i supposed to be able to focus with you in my lap?"

you stick your lollipop in your mouth and shrug, a little smile tugging at the corners of your lips as you hum indifferently. "sounds like you're just making excuses..."

"oh?"

satoru pinches your cheek teasingly with the hand not resting on top of his mouse, fingers skating from the side of your face to your lips as he tugs out the lollipop. he ignores your halfhearted protests and pops it into his mouth, smiling cheekily as he does so. in the darkening computer screen in front of you, you can see your boyfriend's smug expression, which smirks back at you. "mmm, this flavor's good. what is it?"

"strawberry, i think," you reply instinctually. satoru shakes his head in response, taking the candy out of his mouth and twirling the stick in between his thumb and index finger before he corrects you.

"actually, i think it's you i'm tasting," he quips, clicking around with his mouse for a second before he opens up the photo app. your reflection gazes back at the two of you in satoru's comfortably large gaming chair.

"no wonder you have no game," you deadpan, looking away from the mirror image of you and satoru and towards the ceiling.

"baby, you're literally sitting in my lap right now."

"yes, and?"

satoru's laugh is clear and blue, like a sunlit sky in the middle of june. it almost feels like he hasn't been able to stop smiling around you ever since "the incident," and honestly, you wouldn't have it any other way.

he sticks the lollipop in between your lips and stops you from verbally bashing him any more than you already have. the sweet, tangy taste is a welcome sensation in your mouth, and satoru can't help but smile endearingly when your reflection looks at him with round eyes. "you're so cute," he mumbles, punctuating each word with a kiss to the top of your head.

a soft giggle slips out of your lips in response. "shut up." even as you say that, you already know his answer. if there was one bet you'd make without a doubt, it'd be that satoru can never seem to shut up whenever you're in his line of sight.

satoru's hands find themselves on your waist, and they turn you around so you're facing him. there's a different (but not unpleasant) look in his eyes as he gazes at you, tucking a strand of your hair behind your ear.

"what is it?" you ask curiously, noticing the subtle change in his expression. his eyes soften from what looked like a teasing glance to an almost longing stare.

"nothing," he hums, kissing you in between your eyes. "you're just pretty."

satoru's hands thread themselves through your hair, lightly touching the back of your neck as his lips move down to brush against yours. you extract the lollipop from between your lips and tilt your chin up, kissing satoru with a little smile. like always, he tastes like sweetened peppermints, even though you've never seen him eat one before. you'll have to ask about that later, but for now, all you can focus on is the way satoru gently nips at your bottom lip as if he's asking for attention.

you hum softly, opening your eyes and squinting at satoru, who can't help but smile against your lips. "you taste like strawberries," he mumbles, peppering butterfly kisses on the corner of your mouth in between words. "so sweet..."

you exhale faintly, not wanting to pull away from his peppermint-scented lips, and let your eyes flutter closed again. something about the way satoru's hands rest delicately on your waist makes you feel more comfortable than you've been in a while. maybe it's just the hoodie satoru had forced on you earlier when he saw you were shivering, or maybe it's the steady beat of satoru's heart that's almost therapeutic against your chest; whatever the case, you can't remember the last time you've been this at ease.

between his complicated streaming schedule and your busy life, moments like these are rarer than you'd like, but that only makes them all the more special.

five, ten, maybe even fifteen minutes pass by in silence, with the only sound being the soft murmurs shared between you and satoru. his lips fit over yours like two pieces of a puzzle, and the way you fit in between his arms almost feels too good to be true. but thanks to the slender hand that slips underneath the waistband of your shorts and the gentle tug at the bottom of your shirt, you know only too well that this is real; and hopefully, it always will be.
