Hear My Nonsense Out

hear my nonsense out

in the wiki it is stated that

"All godlike share one common function: They act as failsafes for the gods, who can elect to possess their bodies if they are killed or used as living batteries to empower the gods with their souls. With thousands of godlikes across the world, it's a potent reservoir of power. The gods think nothing of this potential mass sacrifice, believing theirs is the greater good."

so ummmmm, avowed? what if you are weal, weal canonically has no godlikes that we know of, and the dude is God of dreams, secrets, mysteries, and revelations.like this guy would have a great time fucking with himself by making him forget who he is when possessing someone. idk think about it.

oopsies i designed more godlikes

I don't have names for them but I've put a lot of thought into them

Ive already drawn the dawn godlike, but here she is again. she grew up in Dyrford pre was so she was highly regarded, but when she was a teen the war happened and she was sent away from home because it just wasn't safe. she was sent to a special place founded by a godlike totake care of unwanted godlike children named "chosen's rest"

Then theres the avian godlike, I KNOW THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEAKS BUT I FORGOT... she was abandoned in the woods by her parents and some wild orlans took her in just long enough that she was a vicious fighter and she could fend for herself. she wandered into a town and was picked up and put in an orphanage because she dosnt understand civil society and had never been around that many people and she bit ankles. she was too unruly and weird so they sent her to the chosen's rest *takes deep breath* ALRIGHT then we have an endings godlike.hes a thief, it's crazy hes managed to stay alive this long, hes sickly, his skin just peels away... hes gross, but somehow he is a charmer, if anyone can look beyond his rotting exterior they'll his charming personality... and his kleptomania. he is 19 and he has a little dinky pirate ship. he stumbles across chosen's rest and he is like "oh, these are my people." he visits frequently to bring treats and donate some money and have a place to rest at night. but he never stays long because his heart belongs to the sea.

bitb but oxenfree???? is this something?

POE gift exchange interest check

so. a significant amount of people voted on the poll that they WOULD participate in a POE-themed gift event

how are we feeling about like. a Secret Santa kind of thing? something like:

signups in September/early October, everyone fills out a google form about what kind of art/fic they'd like to receive and what kind of art/fic they're willing to make, plus requests about stuff that shouldn't be included (triggers, phobias, disliked characters, that kind of thing) and an indication of what level of gore/suggestive content is acceptable

mid-to-late October, everyone gets assigned a user to make a gift for and gets the info about their preferences (I'd be fine with doing the match-ups, but I'll also be playing so. if anyone knows for a fact that they don't want to play but are fine with doing the match-ups so I don't get spoiled on who's my gifter let me know I guess??)

everyone then has about 2-2.5 months to make the gifts, that will get revealed sometime in late December. I'll make a side blog for that? maybe? idk. also the point of having a two-month window to make the gifts is to hopefully make it so that people who are busier on the irl side will be able to participate

interact with this post in any way if you would participate!

also. questions/suggestions are welcome because full disclosure I've never run an EventTM before

please help me find a better name for this than Secret St. Waidwen

more Lucy!

this would be when they were in New York but before they meet Marie.

i feel like john is constantly amazed by her, she is so small and only barely learning about the world, and shes just so defenseless, like even more than arthur, she can't even communicate needs. hes surprised that any humans grow past this age.

i dont understand babies, all my younger siblings are teens at this point. but little baby is probably like a year-year and a half old, she dosnt talk even though babies at this age usually babble and even say words by now, but shes been through a lot so her speech has been delayed, especially because of how much john and Arthur try to keep her quiet. Arthur could probably figure out how old she is if he could see, but he can't, and johns never seen babies until her. when they first got her, she had to be at least 8 months old... i do not know math.

Lucy is obsessed with johns hand, she just wants to hold his fingers, this is because little baby Lucy can actually see john, at first she could only vaguely see his outline and like kinda know there was another person there, but kayne was such a "sweetheart" that he made it so she could see and hear john after the pit.

her first word is for sure "john", just because of Arthur whispering under his breath so much.

i keep meaning to write in this au, but honestly im struggling to find a way for her to even survive these events, like, all of the holes Arthur falls down. HOW WOULD SHE SURVIVE!?
