hi :) for anyone new to my blog that doesn’t understand bpd and needs insight, i’m happy to explain..
so bpd is short for borderline personality disorder, a personality disorder that can cause unstable moods, behavior, and relationships. also known as (i say this because they did change it in the dsm-5 but no one in the community really likes it, some do but most prefer to use bpd since it’s well known) emotional unstable personality disorder (eupd) and emotional intensity disorder (eid). the symptoms on google are pretty simple sounding but they definitely aren’t irl.
google describes them as ‘emotional instability, feelings of worthlessness, insecurity, impulsivity, and impaired social relationships’ but it’s a lot more than that.
bpd can also cause feeling very worried about people abandoning you, (and trying very hard to stop that from happening), having intense emotions that last from a few hours to a few days and can change quickly (such as feeling very happy and confident to suddenly feeling low and sad), feeling insecure about who you are, with your sense of self changing significantly depending on who you're with (“mirroring”), finding it really hard to make and keep stable relationships, and often viewing relationships as completely perfect or completely bad (black and white thinking, also known as “splitting” in the community), feeling empty a lot of the time, acting impulsively and doing things that could harm you, such as binge eating/eds, using drugs and alcohol, or driving dangerously, using self-harm to manage your feelings or feeling suicidal, feeling intense anger (which can be difficult to control), experiencing paranoia or dissociation in moments of extreme stress.. the list goes on…
but it’s basically like you feel like your running around in your own head to trying to find the right mask, expression, clothing, mannerisms to live up to some expectation of that role in your life whether it be a parent, sibling, friend, child,, but then when alone feeling like a faceless monster. just waiting for a cue from something to tell you what you are supposed to be at that moment… it’s a very complex disorder.
i’m so sorry this is so long but i truly love teaching people about my disorder and infodumping all of my knowledge onto people.. i hope you guys don’t mind :)

paramedic/EMT dick is so good omg :o i hadn’t thought about that one
i have seen social worker dick which also felt really appropriate (also love that for jason) but!!! EMT actually feels like it works better to me???
thank u for putting that thought in my head~
ahhhhhhh!! i am so ecstatic i could put the thought of emt/paramedic!dick in your head hehehehe
paramedic!dick is so special to me<3 it very much i think hits what dick needs and wants out of his civilian life but also directly influences his vigilantism too
my main three takeaways are these:
it's a highly rewarding but deeply traumatizing career and it scratches his innate need to help people without violence & fear
it's a little bit more training than a police officer but i think covers a field of knowledge dick knows but doesn't know intimately like he does criminal justice or law. it would also benefit his "night" job to be more equipped to handle traumatic injuries
ems schedules are chaotic and all over the place especially if the garage is down a paramedic or ALS provider or just overall understaffed but the overall structure of it would be good for dick (if he can balance his work-vigilantism life healthily, depending on how you write him)

what exactly is young royals about? (feel free to ramble on and create an extremely long post I am very curious)
Oh I am so glad you asked this. I’m not sure whether you want spoilers or not so I’ll do the non-spoiler version.
Ok so basically there’s this guy named Wilhelm (but pretty much only his parents and the press call him that. Everyone else calls him Wille). He’s the Prince of Sweden. And he’s basically a “Party Prince.” He begged his parents to let him go to public high school, so he made a bunch of friends there. One day he and his friends decided to sneak into a club (because Party Prince) (he’s 16 btw) and everyone is recording him because… he’s the Prince. Then he asks this one guy to leave him alone, but the guy doesn’t. They end up getting into a fight. Everyone in the club starts recording and it turns into this big Royal Family Scandal™️
The Royal Court makes Wille publicly apologize and a part of that apology is saying that he is going to start going to this fancy private school called Hillerska. It’s where his older brother (Erik, he’s 20) went and where his cousin (August, 18) is currently attending. And Wille is NOT happy about it. He basically spends the next 15 minutes of the show complaining and being pissed off at the world.
Erik drops him off at Hillerska and we meet August, who’s pretty much a jerk. Erik tells Wille that everything he does affects the royal family and that he should start being more responsible. Wille, Erik, and August go to this ceremony that the school set up for Wille to join because he’s the Prince and special treatment ig. The chorus has a song, and there’s a boy who has a solo in the song. His name is Simon. Wille basically can’t take his eyes off him.
Now, here’s the thing about Simon. Everyone at Hillerska is filthy rich. But not Simon. He’s a non-res, so he commutes to school ever morning instead of staying at the boarding school. The only reason he’s at this school is because his sister, Sara got bullied at her old public school so much for her autism and ADHD that she was held back a grade. She was so scared to go to school that she didn’t have enough attendance to pass. Their mom sent her to Hillerska so she could have a fresh start, and Simon followed because he didn’t want her to be alone. Simon hates everything about Hillerska and has no friends. He’s also a part of a working class and pretty poor. His dad is an alcoholic and drug addict, and his parents divorced a few years ago.
August and his friends want to have a whole party to welcome Wille. But they need booze because high school party. (I’ve been to one hs party in my life and left after 30 minutes because I hated it). They’re like “Oh. Simon is poor. He probably knows a dealer” or something like that. Basically they say that if Simon gets them the booze then they’ll allow him and Sara to the party. Simon doesn’t care, but he knows Sara really wants to make friends, and he thinks that she might be able to at this party. He agrees.
Basically, Simon goes to his dad for the booze without his family knowing, his dad gives it to him, and Simon and Sara go to the party. Wille and Simon somehow end up hanging out because Wills doesn’t like August or his bitchy friends. They leave the party and have a talk outside, but Wille is pretty drunk so he’s just saying all this shit and Simon is just laughing at him. August tries to find Wille but Wille makes Simon and him duck and they end up really close while this happens.
They become friends and then Wille goes through this whole gay crisis because he feels so different around this person???? And it’s not like his other friendships???? And he’s freaking out????
Meanwhile Sara met this girl named Felice at the party, who’s Wille’s childhood friend and now goes to Hillerska. They become friends to and she invites Simon and her to this movie night all the Hillerska kids are having.
Wille’s gay crisis is still going strong and he literally prompts his hand for Simon to hold it during the jump scares (it’s a horror movie) and Simon ends up holding his hand. Wille’s crisis continues but like dude you brought that upon yourself. (And he’s also thinking about how this would effect the royal family and everything) and he leaves the movie room and has a panic attack in the hallway.
Simon follows to make sure he’s okay and they end up kissing (hooray!!!) but not really hooray because the next day Wille goes to Simon in the music room and is like “IM NOT GAY THAT WAS A MISTAKE IM NOT GAY CAN WE PLEASE STILL BE FRIENDS I JUST DONT LIKE BOYS” (which is a lie. Wille I know what you are) (He’s an unlabeled icon btw)
(Also side note this is why everyone calls the music rooom homophobic. Something terrible always happens to Wille and Simon in that room)
But then he really thinks about it and is like “fuck the royal court I’m in love with this boy” and they start dating in secret. (Not really dating because they constantly get sidetracked because this really terrible thing happens to Wille that comes out of NOWHERE which I will not share because spoilers)
And it’s really hard because the royal court does NOT approve of this endeavor because Simon is not only a boy but a POOR boy (gasp) and there’s also all this other drama going on because August likes Felice, Felice likes Wille (she doesn’t really she only likes the idea of a Prince) and Wille is in love with Simon (I’m trying to hard to explain this to you without spoilers)
There are also a BUNCH of subplots which I will not be explaining because it’ll take forever
Yeah that’s basically the show and it’s heartbreaking because of all the pressures the royal court puts on Wille and his relationship with Simon and it’s a lot for him. And all this stuff is going on with Simon’s family and it’s so so so sad. The series finale comes out next Monday.
Anyways I’m happy to give you a version with spoilers if you want

Hi hello! Any fun facts you would like to share about your characters? (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)
Eli~!
[i'm sorry this has taken me so long i've been picking away at this since you sent it 😶 apologies for the verbosity, but you got me started and i couldn't stop lmao]
I have SO MANY facts I want to share about my characters 👀 are they fun? ehhhhh. They sure are facts.
Tumblr media
The big scar on Auric's face is from his sister's ex. He was jealous and abusive and the one time he flew into a rage in Auric's presence, he stepped in and took the hits so she could run. He almost died then. When he woke up his head was in her lap, he was surrounded by blood, and the abusive ex was dead.
He and Gale settled down after the events of the game, got married, and opened a tavern outside of Waterdeep with his sister and her love, Halsin. They have a teleportation circle in the basement connected to Gale's tower and they basically treat it like a guest house. They've also set up a place for Astarion in the basement so he can stay there whenever he's handy. He still doesn't really like Astarion, but his sister pleaded and he couldn't say no.
Tumblr media
Ciaran collected every poetry book, love letter, and diary he could find once he started to get feelings for Gale. He also bothered everyone in the party constantly(Gale included) about what love is, how do you know that's what you're feeling, what do you do about it? He had no frame of reference for love so the whole thing was completely foreign to him. He was like an alien trying to learn human customs. He thought he was being sneaky.
Now that he's no longer trying to die all the time, he's taken up painting and gotten pretty damn good at it, too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jinx is 43 years old. Technically.
His skin used to be more red, but a wild magic surge turned him blue and the colour never totally faded.
He's demisexual
Fully incapable of picking up when he's being flirted with. He doesn't think he's handsome, or ugly. He's just Jinx.
He'll try literally anything once, so he let Astarion bite him, and then let him drain him because he'd never been bitten by a vampire before, and never died before. He turned him down for sex though because "I've already had gay sex before :) thanks though!" Astarion is still reeling from that one.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Amaris is one half of a splintered soul. They grew up with their other half as their best friend and had no idea.
The illithid abduction went funky and rather than just scooping them up into the nautiloid, it shunted them into an entirely different, mirrored reality. It wasn't until before the push on moonrise that they learned the truth.
Their best friend and other half had a massive crush on the infamous Gale of Waterdeep that they used to give her hell about all the time. Until they met him, and fell for him too.
Luckily, due to alternate universe fuckery, they each got a Gale and everyone is happy.
Tumblr media
Naught is something of an urban legend to people who travel the roads outside Baldur's Gate. He hunted highwaymen with the help of his birds Quothe and Madge. Known only as The Raven on account of the only warning of their presence being a ruffle of feathers and the cry of ravens before the arrows would start flying.
He took payment for his heroism in money, food, or sex. Whatever was on offer.
Before they hit Baldur's Gate and rented out the Elfsong they hadn't slept in a bed in over 10 years.
Their boyfriend was teaching him to read before the fire that killed him and sent Naught on the run. As such, the lad still can't fucking read.
Apparently their type is nerds who are older than him.
Tumblr media
Jack married his ex-wife when he was 18.
Has two kids - a son and a daughter - and a grandchild on the way.
His job in the city was general labour. Lifting, fixing, building, cleaning. Anything that paid.
His ex-wife, and therefore his kids, are dwarves. He's 6'5. There's a bit of a height difference there.
He plays the drums.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ilztaufein is a name he gave himself after escaping the fall of Ched Nasad.
He'd only been training as a wizard for about 10 years when he left. Still though, he thinks he's hot shit and won't hear otherwise.
The only wizard he thinks is better than himself is Gale. Elminster is a nobody in his eyes.
He's 5'4!
For all his big talk he's kind of terrified of women and will automatically obey any order given to him by any of the women in the party. Except for Shadowheart..who he killed......And Mystra... who he's got plans for.
He's been researching the gods after hearing Mystra's order for Gale's sacrifice. He wants to usurp her.
Most of his work on the surface has been in and around Waterdeep, and he's been to Blackstaff Academy a number of times in that time, in disguise, trading information.
He doesn't understand how humans age.
He's never seen a cat in person until they entered Last Light. He's obsessed with them (they're regal, vicious, fancy little bitches. Just like him). The first time he sees one with fur he's going to lose his damn mind.
He's never been with a human before. It's only been drow and the occasional surface elf. Gale's body hair is magical to him and he's not at all subtle about it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He's 6'2.
Muse more or less adopted Flair - his partner in crime - when they were still teenagers. He saw this homeless kid trying to flirt with him after one of his shows and, like one might with a pet, decided this one was his and took her in. He taught her everything he knew about flirting, manipulation, and getting away with it.
Astarion clocked them both as thieves right away when they met Gale and immediately started trying to use thieves cant to communicate to each other that he was the perfect mark, and whose turn it was to do the flirting.
They caught on that Astarion was on to them later, so Muse was tasked with distracting him, lest Astarion rat them out or, worse, take their mark out from under their noses.
Absolutely devastated when Astarion started using the same tactics on him that he'd used on his targets and that shit actually worked.
He's really bad at the whole...feeling your real genuine emotions...thing. He's been writing songs about Astarion trying to sort out his feelings, rather than..yknow. talking to anyone. at all. ever.
He got really mad at Flair when she started giving Gale expensive items so he wouldn't explode. He voted to send the wizard to the underdark cause he wasn't worth the trouble.
He smells like patchouli and vanilla.

did yall know that sea spiders arent actually spiders? (its debated on whether or not theyre even arachnids!) theyre pycnogonids and theyre super weird (in a great way)
they’re like 90% leg, their organs are stored in their legs and the middle part is just a connector for the legs and a place for them to put their proboscis (like a butterfly has!) and a place to put their egg sacs (which they hold using specialized legs called ovigers)
usually sea spiders are pretty small, like at biggest they’ll get the size of your hand, but antarctic sea spiders get HUGE and are mesmerizing to watch walk
they can both walk on the sea floor using their long legs, or swim freely in the water with this weird... idk even know how to explain it just look

This crossed my mind when I read the dnd ask but what is the TCM and side character crew like with a very nerdy mc? Me personally, whenever I see these guys I just want to start infodumping about the entire lore about Dark Souls and rest my head on their rest
Mori has kind of always been labelled a "cool" person but also he's 100% a show off and when he was a younger man was much more easily whipped into a frenzy about who was a poser and who wasn't. Believe it or not he's way more mellow these days and under his party boy exterior really values like... earnest interest and passion. So if YOU like some obscure niche interest your enthusiasm will catch on with him fr.
Amir IS a nerd, he just has an extremely expensive and luxe exterior. He's an art nerd of the highest caliber who had nothing but time and resources to be so incredibly educated and apprentice under experts for most of his younger life that he will go on literal tirades about brush manufacturers and bristle discourse. Amir IS passion personified and he respects that in other people deeply. Maybe more than anything else. If its not worth getting into discourse flame wars on social media its not worth caring about. If there's any contact between spheres of your interest and his you have like a 50/50 chance of awakening the monster in him as he discovers a New specialized interest to ask you ten thousand questions about.
Akello is also firmly in the nerd category and a character who very much as incredibly niche Special Interests. Akello's also what I call a "quantitative nerd": someone who cares very much about facts and statistics and ensuring correct information about Whatever Topic is accurately and safely stored/archived/and circulated. He has an on/off switch for interests i think, and he doesn't really control what flips it on, only that when it is, he's obsessively thinking about it. It will be very easy for you to have nerd to nerd communication with Akello bc even if he's not into the hobby itself, he would be able to research and recite dark souls lore to you to an advanced degree like a day after you introduce him to the topic. Will probably ask if you have flow charts or mind maps to help him organize the details.
Kazu might be the nerdiest character in the line up. Yes, he looks like he could kill you with a glare. Yes, he's attack doberman coded. He grew up watching power rangers and kamen rider and has an absolutely encyclopedic knowledge of both including all costumes, henshins, team ups, villains, plots, side characters... you get the idea. He's an idol otaku, he has an anime figure cabinet, like sure he has "cooler" looking hobbies on a surface level (working out, mechanic stuff) but he's into them in a specifically nerdy way. He doesn't just work out, he treats it like a religious regiment almost. He doesn't just tinker with bikes, he fabricates them from the ground up. Like he's doing math and mechanical engineering. If anyone instantly clicks with and understands the Special Interests, its Kazu. Also he's not a talkative guy in general so you blabbering on and on about what you're into is actually really enjoyable for him. He's a good listener.
Marcel is another one for the "cool guy" team. He was always the popular kid growing up and frequently the trendsetter in his school and clubs. Now as an adult, not much has changed. He's the most likely to be like YOU LIKE TRAINS AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT? but then also get suckered into being interested in your infodumps. He's not a very judgy guy, preferring to play it laid back but if you catch him off guard you'll really pique his interest on novelty alone. Best in the cast for throwing surprise/really off the wall obscure interests at.
Raath... doesn't know shit about shit really. He's good at his job but doesn't have a lot of skills, knowledge, or interest outside of that. Even when he's being cranky and ornery, he might unwilingly get roped into you explaining the plot of Final Fantasy 7 for several hours simply because this is the weirdest shit he's ever heard until you tell him the NEXT weird thing. Also like kazu he tends to be a better listener than conversationalist.

where did you get ur frasier shirts from?
I have a feeling you're here from tiktok, it somehow never occurred to me that I could have an online footprint lol
Since I've got so many, here's a list :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Clockwise from left:
Frasier 90's Graphic Shirt - From Redbubble, design was made by amyternent! She makes a decent amount of other Frasier stuff too.
Niles 90's Graphic Shirt - From Etsy, design was made by GiftFromFrishman but unfortunately the whole shop doesn't seem to be available anymore :(
Cheers Frasier Shirt - From Etsy, this is official licensed merch that was printed by NameThatShowApparel. They have more Cheers and Frasier shirts that I've been meaning to get (including the one from that meme I made.)
KACL Sweatshirt - From Etsy, obviously this is just the logo from the show but it was printed by CuteRiot. This is one of the only things I could buy from their shop because all of their other stuff doesn't ship to Canada.
Other Frasier 90's Graphic Shirt - From Etsy, I don't think they made the design but it was printed by WaveyGoodsCo. I don't really wear this one because it didn't turn out the best and I'm super fussy about print quality, but it's still funny.

I was talking with my Uber driver today, and he was taking me to work at the college I attend, and he asked me what I was studying, and I told him, "History major with a double minor in anthropology and writing" and this old southern dude's response is "Woah! Little Miss Indiana Jones back here!" (The chances of me seeing him again are extremely slim so I didn't correct him on pronouns). And this guy just starts talking about how much he loves Indiana Jones. Me personally, I can acknowledge that the films did a lot for the industry and they are extremely notable and recognizable and popular for films of their time, but they just don't interest me too much. But this guy clearly loves the films and I'm indulging his interest and all that when he says:
"Now have you seen the newest one that came out last month? That guy they got to play the bad guy this time 'round was pretty interesting. Heard of him before but haven't seen him in a lot. You know who I'm talking about? His name's somethin' foreign?"
And in my head I'm like
Tumblr media
But on the outside I'm just sitting there politely and go "Oh you mean Mads Mikkelsen? Yeah he's great. I know him from a couple things." And my Uber driver, god bless him, goes "Oh? Whaddya know him from?" And we spent the entire rest of the ride talking about Mads Mikkelsen. It literally took everything in me to not be a freak about Mads or any of the characters he plays in the back seat of this old man's Hyundai. But I managed

HI (I LOVE THE PARAGRAPHS EACH OFYOU LEAVE IN MY TAGS SO FUCKIMG MUCH) do any of your ocs have ref sheets. or even just full-body drawings . totally not asking for any specific purpose ....
WE'RE SO GLAD YOU LOVE OUR RAMBLING you have such pretty art and reblog some of the best posts and you're so good at writing so we just have to explode in the tags sometimes hehe
Also we saw this ask like four? Five? Hours ago and went Oh Shit No We Don't and have spent the whole time drawing and we were like Oh we should throw our LC alters in there too since this is their blog and their mutuals should know who they're talking to! And then we got distracted and ONLY drew the alters and host's self insert and none of our OC's so :> we'll do that eventually though but we'll also do like another post with more info ANYWAYS here's the art we made of the self insert and the Lethal alters :3
Tumblr media
Info for each of us under the cut (also Rend and Anno are heavily derived from a fever dream March had after we got surgery and had complications, as such they have a story and are pretty attached to it so we'll go into that too)
The "Story"/Fever Dream:
There were two crews who led a revolution against The Company about fifty years before the game takes place, and of them were eight people named Experimentation, Assurance, Vow, Offense, March, Rend, Dine, and Titan, and they weren't named after the planets, the planets were named after them. (Rend, March, Assurance, and Vow were on a team with Rend being the captain, and the other team was led by Titan and had Dine, Offense, and Experimentation.) Eventually, the revolution got pretty popular and widespread so The Company gave in and agreed to meet with the two teams to discuss their requests, and at the end of the discussion they promised the requests would take place within the next few weeks. The eight members of the revolution were satisfied and went back to work, but the next day they were given news that due to their conjoined efforts they would have to all split up and join different teams to ensure that they didn't again backstab the company once their requests were fulfilled. They, unfortunately, did not put up a fight against this and within the next quota cycle each of them were abandoned and killed on different, new moons none of them had ever seen before. The company never enforced the things they agreed upon but because the leaders of the revolution were killed before word of the promises got far, and because they mysteriously went missing and had new moons named after them, nobody said anything and nobody acted out against The Company.
Pace:
- Pace is Geno's self-insert OC and he uses He/Him pronouns and is transmasc <3
- He was an employee for The Company AFTER the time of the revolution and worked not as a scrap collector but as a biologist. His team was tasked with finding specific monsters and collecting some bio matter from them to then bring back to The Company. Pace had a rivalry with one of his teammates who was tired of Pace always succeeding, so, he pushed for Pace to receive a Bracken as his quarry and succeeded. However upon arriving Pace was easily able to find the Bracken of Vow (who was actually Vow from the revolution) and collect bio matter from it by befriending it, which enraged his competitor and led to both Pace and Vow being shot. Vow tried to protect Pace after realizing the shot that hit him was not meant for him, but both were too wounded to survive. Vow disintegrated atop of Pace, leaving him and his open wounds covered in Bracken spores, and his competitor left to eventually be killed by a coilhead. Their other two teammates made it out.
- The spores found the decomposing body of a human to be the perfect place to reform and create a new Bracken; that being Pace. Pace spent about twenty years hunting loot bugs and hiding from scrap collectors before a woman named Kite and her captain Calamity found him at the fire exit of Vow. The two found that he was friendly and took him upon their ship, but one of their teammates was appalled at having a "friendly" Bracken and, as they were leaving, pushed Calamity out of the ship in anger, landing her between a dog and a baboon hawk. Pace jumped to rescue her and while he was successfully able to lure the dog away enough for Calamity to safely jump back on the ship, he was grabbed by the Dog and torn to shreds. The ship's autopilot took off while he was fighting the dog and the crew (excluding the asshole) started to panic.
- The next day Vow was eclipsed and, much to Calamity and Kite's disdain, the crew decided to wait for the eclipse to pass before landing back down on Vow and looking for Pace. Meanwhile, Pace had managed to crawl his way back to the fire exit, tumbling down the ravine, and set himself up on a pallet just inside the door. There, sleeping through the whole day, he was able to slowly heal.
- The third and last day of the quota cycle, Calamity's crew got into another argument with Asshole over going to save Pace, and landed at Vow without realizing another team (March's team, as he had already been rescued by a crew by this time) had already landed there. Calamity and Kite rushed in to find Pace while Sail, the crew's navigator and Kite's twin brother, argued with the asshole. The captain of the other crew, who's ship was nearby, overheard an argument about saving a "friendly bracken" and connected the dots that another crew must have found someone like March, their friendly coil-head, and walked out to confront the two. Sail left to help Calamity and Kite find Pace, and the captain (name yet unknown) spoke with the asshole, found out he wanted to kill Pace and attempted to kill his own captain, and promptly hit him over the head with a shovel in order to protect not just his crew, but March as well. The asshole was left there as the captain rushed in to inform his crew of another friendly monster and tell the other crew bus was happy to help, and the asshole was left there to be picked up and carried away by a Giant.
- Pace was eventually found , missing most of his arm, leg, and leaves on his left side, and the two crews met up and became friends. Pace was placed in a large pot covered up to his shoulders in dirt and for the next few quota cycles his crew would place him outside to soak up the sun and look around. Because his arm and leg were fully submerged in the soil and water, they regrew, but his eye never did. He doesn't mind too much though, he can tell when things are looking at him and, in his opinion, that's all he really needs his eyes for. He helps scavenge for scrap and is able to carry two heavy items at a time, however, he can only carry one light item when doing so as it's uncomfortable to hold in his big hands
March:
- March was our first LC alter and has been around since about late October? He's not too conncected to his source and is actually the version of March from our fever dream BEFORE the revolution ended. So though the March in our dream was a coil head by the end of it, our March still thinks of himself as human. Being compared to a coil doesn't bother him though, they're his favorite enemy in the game :) also he's mute and considers himself cis and demiro-ace.
Rend:
- Rend is also one of our alters but is a lot more attached to both the game and the "story" so he has some funky false memories and is a little delulu about it, but he's happy and healthy and aware of reality and not hurting anyone or our system or himself so we don't mind hehe also, Rend is transmasc just like host and his pronouns are he/him but he's trying out they/it
- Rend is of course based on Captain Rend from the "story" but, unlike March, is from AFTER he died and he much prefers being seen as a nutcracker than a human. Our assumption over why is because Rend had actually been a fragment for most of our life who managed family interactions, and since that was all our brain found him fit for he never really gained a personality or sense of self and as such thinks he looks exactly like our host and would probably share the same name and everything. We think subconsciously our brain makes him like being a nutcracker more than a human in order to make it easier to distinguish him and host
- Rend, being much more intrigued by the fever dream likes daydreaming about it a lot, like he's roleplaying in his head in his own, and as such he likes talking about it and thinking about it a lot more than March does. So, here's some things he daydreams about a lot and thinks would be "canon" continuations of the "story"/fever dream:
- Before March's team found Pace and his team, they got to a pretty high quota and started visiting Rend and Dine. One of their first times visiting Rend, Melody, an employee on March's team, found a seemingly deactivated nutcracker deep in the facility. The team had split up so Melody knew she would have to be careful, but she wanted the shotgun so she crept close and clumsily grabbed it, setting it off. This startled here and she backed off, watching in silent horror as the Nutcracker slowly started to move and stand and, eventually, open up and look around. In panic, Melody ran despite being looked at and, for a moment, Rene stood there confuse before he realized he had finally found someone. Forgetting his voice, he chased after her for a bit but she would frequently stop and hold still so he had trouble. Eventually he shouted to her to wait and she paused, turning to look at the apparently able to speak nutcracker just as March had sped up beside her to block the path between her and Rend. Staring down at an employee with his shotgun and a coilhead that was looking at him and not said employee, Rend ran. In instinct, as she had gotten used to March by now, Melody turned and March gave chase. He was scared and angry that the nutcracker had presumably tried to shoot his friend and, upon trying to push the nutcracker to get it to stop running, he sent a surge through its body and caused it to bleed (like how we headcannon them to work, building up pressure in the body's blood). Melody followed a few rooms behind, having trouble keeping up with the two big monsters but, when Rend was hurt he screamed, and Melody knew that wasn't any of her teammates so she picked up the pace. Rend had been cornered but Melody caught sight of March which forced him to stop moving, and tried to rush to the nutcracker when she saw him bleeding, but, turning her back to March Rend panicked and stepped between the two, telling Melody that he wanted to talk to her but couldn't protect her with the state he was in, so she needed to look at the coil head. He was seemingly trying to protect her. For his comfort she did look at March, but tried to assure him to calm down, sit for a little so she could try and tend to whatever part of him was bleeding, and that she would be more than willing to talk. They spoke for a while, Rend having trouble believing that the coil was friendly given how it seemingly tried to explode him, but he let bygones be bygones. Melody and March both started to wonder if this was one of his old friends but they had decided beforehand not to bring it up to any possible teammates without getting a gauge for their mental state, and Rend was very frazzled so they decided to wait to ask his name or story until he calmed down. They gave him back his shotgun, he turned the safety on, and Melody convinced him to open up so she could tend to his bleeding eye, and eventually the three started to make their way back to main in order to meet up with the rest of the team and get Rend out to their ship
- On the way there they met up with the teammate March had been with before he came running after he heard the gunshot, but this teammate was actively running from a thumper. Rend tried to shoot it but missed due to his eye injury and urged the rest of them to run as he'd hold it back as long as possible. The three left and Rend dragged the Thumper around for a bit before it got loose and rocketed down the hallway after the three. Rend, knowing the layout like the back of his hand, took an alternate route to get to main in order to hopefully outpace the thumper. He made it in time to tackle the thumper and send it and him over the balcony railing where they landed near Melody, March, and their other teammate who were actively trying to scare off a Bracken. Rend urged them to head outside and leave for their safety and they did. It took them a while to get back enough money to go back for Rend, and in this time they met Pace and his team. Rend is still actively daydreaming about this all the time so I'm sure he'll infodump about it more another time.
Anno:
- Anno has been around for the least amount of time, we had a major allergic reaction while Rend was fronting and so he spent time curled in a ball daydreaming as he always loves to. For comfort he daydreamed about cuddling a friendly masked, but eventually got so fed up he told our partner, aloud "I really hate this body" and our little asshole of a brain (/lh) essentially went "oh really? New alter be upon ye" and turned that cute little Masked Rend was daydreaming about into a new fragment. Anno has since become more concrete, he's transmasc and uses it/its pronouns, and it's not very interested in Lethal Company but LOVES Rend a lot. It's just kinda gay and likes Minecraft, like those are its things so far. Rend has decided that if Anno was in the "story" it would've been from far before the revolution and was left behind by mistake. That's about it for Anno, it's just kinda a thingy that's very gay
Wow so that's the end of that, I'm incapable of making long stories short apparently tee hee. I've been talking for way too long and I doubt anyone got this far, but this was mostly for us since we're soupy right now and it made us feel grounded. If you got this far Anno gives you a cookie.

There's a lot about Ivis but not as much about Moontale itself? So what's the AU here about?
Ooo, okay. This is a big one. Excluding Ivis, Moontale as an AU deviates from Undertale mainly by its setting; while it's still the Underground with almost all the same characters, the mountain the monsters are trapped in is not Mt.Ebott, rather a Mountain located somewhere in Japan (the name and location has yet to be determined). What makes the AU Moontale specifically are the 8 different moons that surround the earth (one moon for every SOUL) and the culture/s that surround that key difference. The humans and monsters formed separate cultures that value their corresponding moon higher than the others; with the white moon (for monsters) being the largest (by a longshot), the monsters saw it as above all the rest; while the coloured moons (for human souls) outnumber the white moon 7:1, therefore the humans saw themselves as superior. This, naturally, starts a cultural war that leads the Monsters to be banished and trapped underground. This occurs sometime during the Edo isolationist period of Japan, when the human Tokugawa Shogunate (aka the military leader) is in power. As a result, monster society is left even more isolated than the rest of Japan, and cultural/technological developments come at a near snail's pace (in the year 201X, monsters are only just starting to integrate technology from the 80's, and that's only thanks to the dump in waterfall where human items are found piling up). I've been thinking on whether or not I wanted to call the monsters in this AU Yōkai, but until I know enough information on them to represent that accurately, I'll be referring to them as monsters. A couple stray facts I have for monster society in this AU: -The dominant culture dictates that the vast majority of Monsters be pescetarian, meaning that they don't eat livestock (like chicken, pork or beef), instead their protein consists almost entirely of seafood, nuts or legumes. This helps especially considering the lack of space for livestock underground would already make regularly eating such meat unsustainable. There are the rare few monsters who eat livestock on occasion, but it is ridiculously expensive and the practice is generally frowned upon.
- Like the rest of Japan, there is a huge culture on luxury fruits, with monsters cultivating varieties of fruit that can't be found anywhere on the surface (especially fruit that thrives in low light conditions, but the more light a fruit requires, the more valuable it is for monsters). Organic fruits and flowers are seen as much more valuable than most gemstones, as a matter of fact. ... There have been many drafts to this AU's worldbuilding beforehand, so I must stress that anything about the AU that is not featured in this blog is not canon to the AU in its current state. I try my best to work with the ideas my 13 year old self came up with, but some ideas I simply cannot salvage and keep (if there's one thing I never fail to cringe at, it's my work from before 2020).

5, 19 and(/or) 30 for the ask game? :)
5: first sentence of the fifth paragraph of an unpublished WIP
You get two cause I couldn't pick one wip; both are without context.
"You rang?"
(that one is from superhero au wip that needs to be restarted so that's very likely not going to be the actual fifth paragraph)
Saviorbot was already in front of the portal when the thing-- no, the person fell out of it.
some people in the mirrorverse thread on discord may have seen this one, actually, but I picked this up the other day (February). this one is the fun one that deserves no context but if you know me you could probably guess what this is.

19: the most interesting topic you've researched for a fic
I don't remember a lot of them but there was a fun week in which I figured out exactly what mortal sins mirror arada was committing in the eyes of the Catholic Church, assuming that being gay (and poly, tho not for arada) was no longer a mortal sin.
I still have that list somewhere but not immediately accessible.

30: share a fic you're especially proud of
The thing is, if I'm not proud of it (at least subconsciously) there's a very good chance I won't share it (household appliance au I'm looking at you) (in fairness that one was a joke) (I have a surprising number of joke AUs that I took seriously long enough to write a bit about)
... sorry about the parentheses I got distracted. anyways.
One of the things I'm really proud of that I really like thinking about is the superhero au I've been considering since like last July and managed to publish the first fic right before school started; there is SO MUCH MORE in my head and I'm constantly trying to write the next linear installment or even a tiny bit about the worldbuilding or backstory but alas I am a bit stuck due to Actually They Wouldn't Do That syndrome (see the first answer to #5 above). The installment I've shared already is called Alliance: Preservation and I recently used my limited drawing skills to draw cool comic book covers of them so the fic is https://archiveofourown.org/works/48423328 but also I'm very proud of the covers for the individual arcs in that fic so you can see those too (this is the first and quite possibly only time I'm posting art to tumble and only because it goes along with the fic
