And From This Ask Game, Pls? Also Good To See You Around, Eve! Sending Good ~~ Vibes ~~ And Good Luck

☕️ and ⛸️ from this ask game, pls? also good to see you around, eve! sending good ~~ vibes ~~ and good luck to ya. :3 - 💫 (@enchanted-lightning-aes)

enchant you're an angel <33 sending good vibes back because you gave me no names, I will take the liberty of picking two characters for each question from a quest of cards and calamity ☕️ Hot Cocoa: what do your OCs do if they need reassurance or comfort? Do they talk to someone/fall back on a certain activity? Alex (prior to the narrative) often needed reassurance and comfort, since their curse messed up interactions with people and basic tasks, yet they believed the faults were their own. So there are many afternoons where they are found sitting on the large windowsill in their room with the windows flung open, vibing with the animals - a capybara on their lap, a tapir by their side, and various birds on their shoulders and in their hair. Animals don't judge and no one goes to that part of the forest. Bennie destressed in his garden. After a long day dealing with customers who could somehow never interpret his painstakingly simple instructions correctly and minor injuries they could have tended to at home, they find no better place to be than among dirt and leaves. Covered all the way up to his elbows in earth, weeds curling and dying in the folds of his skirt, and a trowel waiting to be used by their side.

⛸️ Ice Skating: tell us about a skill your OC has. Is it unusual? Something they worked hard on? Does it ever come in handy? Cuckoo (when magic was around) was really great at manipulating the taste of things with their illusions. She would mess with people at the circus, often making some panic by making them think they were eating something they were allergic to when they were actually okay. They used it often when bouncing from village to village - she'd make chefs or patrons think food had spoiled so they would throw it out for her to eat. Though, sometimes she still made a scene in a restaurant. Just for fun. Maggie translated her wealth of knowledge for intricate braids - which came from days of practice being shut up in the house for her own protection - to learning to tie a myriad of sea-worthy knots. She hasn't used that skill yet, but she's sure it'll come in handy someday. Maybe. Hopefully.

ask game is linked in the ask (thanks for that)

Slide descriptions

Slide 1: a quest of cards and calamity

a fantabulous comic sans wip intro

Slide 2: what is going on here? (plot/premise)

magic disappears when the old gods are banished

5 spunky teens have one friend in common

said friend sends them on a continent trotting quest to retrieve a gadget that was busted in a mechanical mishap

it’s safe for them to go because the mechanical mishap gave them powers in a now magicless world

found family building shenanigans ensue as they journey to retrieve the oh so special doohickey

lots of fireside chats to unpack baggage™ , banter over playing cards, long road trip with new friends (i swear i will incorporate as much playing card motifs as i can if just for the color scheme and vibes)

Slide 3: who? (characters pt. 1)

Magnolia Buqeño (maggie)

token cis, she/her

used to have shitty divination, now can fix a broken bone with a bandaid

says i told you so then kicks your shins and doesn’t mention her crippling pain

has a girlfriend :D

has been coddled all her life and she hates it (first hemophilia, then her parents died)

adopted daughter of the village chief/mayor

hates alex

knows everything about history - it’s her jam (and escapism)

Alex Redigere

nonbinary, they/them

used to be snow white, now they shatter anything like a two year old breaks an antique vase

you stub your toe and they apologize to you

used to be cursed to with bad luck but didn’t know so they assumed they messed up everything because they’re a terrible person and never made friends

is kinda responsible for the death of maggie’s parents (and feels super guilty)

needs a hug

Slide 4: who’s who? (characters pt. 2)

Cuckoo Kotodori

genderfluid, she/they (pronouns by bandana - worn over hair is she, worn around forehead is they)

used to make imaginary worlds, now makes pocket pocket dimensions

will lie, cheat, and steal for fun and chaos

ran away to the circus as a child but was kicked out because too much stuff disappeared while there

kinda friends with maggie cos she brings her trinkets sometimes

terrible at working with people, great at laughing off emotions

Bendis Kahoari (ben or bennie)

transmasc, he/they

used to be a gardner, now has an indestrctible bonk stick

*customer service voice* do i need to fight you?

independent business owner - runs an inherited apothecary and a black market stall

has a beautiful garden he can still maintain but now he has to actually learn how to grow certain plants because he can’t cheat with magic

would have been a bard in another life

takes no bull from anyone, very loyal

a Good Boi

Slide 5: who’s who’s who? (side characters)

Elestial Kuzgun

genderqueer, ey/em (any)

artificer, never had and never will have any special skills

no thoughts, head empty except for a million physics and engineering

just so sweet, so pure, understands no societal conventions (doesn’t do nicknames)

just so dorky and lovable

Stella Rammo

cis, she/her

used to play with fire sparks, now she can’t do anything

art is love, art is life

maggie’s girlfriend :D

loves nature, not people

does death defying stunts for a good view to paint

always covered in paint, always sweet

Slide 6: what in the world? (worldbuilding)

wow yeah there’s actually a world (continent) and not just a tiny village and endless stretches of road

tech is powered by magic and is the equivalent to early 1800s 1st industrial revolution

continent is broken up into 6 ½ regions with corresponding ethnicities

cities/towns are classified by how much magic they used to rely on and use (no longer relevant except in how much they’ve fallen apart)

(least) hearts, clubs, spades, diamonds (most)

4 corrupt gods (growth, family, battle, light) were banished but there is a movement trying to bring them back

heroes that originally banished them are trying to keep them gone

conflict over gods’ place in the world is backdrop to found family fun/sad times

Slide 7: are you asking for vibes (incorrect quotes)

Cuckoo: I am literally evil incarnate.

Cuckoo: I’m not actually, I just enjoy being evil.

Cuckoo: Which I think actually makes it even more evil because I’m making a conscious effort.

Alex: *falls down the stairs*

Ben: Are you okay?

Maggie: Stop falling down the stairs!

Cuckoo: How’d the ground taste?

Ben: I never tell people off the bat that I'm gay. I wait. I wait until they say some homophobic shit and then I laugh and am like "you know I'm gay right?" and watch the look of terror on their face.

Cuckoo:

Cuckoo: I like you

Stella: *is wearing silk pants* How does this look?

Maggie: Like its slips on and off really easily.

Stella:

Maggie: No, I didn't mean it like that-

Ben: We know what you meant

Alex: Pros and cons of dating me.

Alex: Pros. You'll be the cute one.

Alex: Cons. Holy shit, where do I begin-

Elestial: *sees Maggie and Stella together*

Elestial: They're cute. I would put them on a boat.

Alex: You mean... you ship them?

Maggie: I’m sad.

Ben: Don’t be sad, because sad backwards is das.

Ben: And das not good.

lila's 12 days of writers self love

welcome, writers, to my christmas writing event themed around self love of our writing! far too often during the year (and especially during the holiday season) we put ourselves and our strengths, creativity, and worth last. writers don't appreciate their writing enough, and i would like to make sure some self care is practiced in this stressful time for everyone.

how it works:

each day will follow a piece of writing of yours that fits the prompt list below. these pieces can be 10 years old or 10 minutes old, you can write something specifically for the prompt if you want, whatever!

the prompts are up to your interpretation, meaning they don't have to contain a scene with a hug in it, for example. the scene/piece can represent what a hug feels like to you, and for something for repulsed, the interpretations are endless! there is no wrong way to interpret.

if you want, you can talk about what you like about that piece, how you're proud of it, etc. there is no limit to the self hyping up you can do !!

The event will run from December 1 to 12, to avoid the busyness of the typical 12 days.

here are the prompts:

hug

crown

repulsed

blood

flower

clothing

god

music

dance

magic

kiss

ending

tagging people who showed interest (thank you for all the reblogs, everyone!) @traveler-of-realms @regularfishes @vicstmichael @roselin-books-official @prettyquickpoetry @gay-frog-in-a-swamp @moondust-bard @msfluffy0617 @midnight-and-his-melodiverse @bookish-galaxy @annetilney @dakrapatops @did-i-do-this-write @xxjanoca000 @adtula @verba-writing @winglesswriter @dogmomwrites @pothimi @coffeewritesfiction @jacquesfindswritingandadvice @sleepyowlwrites @writinginslowmotion @starryeyes2000 @miniaturebiscuit @ettawritesnstudies @catkin-morgs

even if you don't want to participate, which is totally fine, boosts would be appreciated!! i'm looking forward to seeing what everyone has to share <3<3 if you want, you can tag your posts with #12 days of writers self love, or tag me if you want me to reblog it!!
