Cold Father, Marchosias & Heathen Yngya

This one's for you :> @literallyacatofathousandemotions

Context:

Now. *claps*

This is just my interpretation AHAHAHAH

It's 3:40 AM.

I also had another interpretation where Yngya still has her crown. It's just that, Science-y Yngya and Faithful March is what I had in mind.

But that's for another time~

Your girl needs to rest HAHAHAAH

My YngMarch heart is full :>

Unreliable everyone

[mixelation]

we as a society have GOT to accept that it is okay if we get blocked. you do not have the right to interact with every single person on the internet. "but then i can't interact with their content" yes that is the point "but i didn't do anything" no one owes you an explanation and you don't have to have "done something" to be blocked. let it go

the "oh. oh." moment in fan fic but instead of a character realizing they're in love it's them discovering they have a specific kink at the worst possible moment

Forneus the merciful, bearer of the yellow crown

A little design exercise for an au, "new bearers of the crowns", where Forneus is the new bearer of the yellow crown

Known as "Forneus the Merciful" or "The Merciful Mother" (get it? The damned tears of the Merciful Mother reference?), Forneus represents fairness, friendship and family. She offers help and food to kind mortals that are ready to help their neighbor, but punishes those that are cruel and selfish

She punishes the traitors, the cruel and the unkind with terrible hunger and dead lands, bringing famine upon them

Her cult isn't located in one specific area, they're pilgrims, traveling the lands and helping those in need

She's overall viewed as a kind god, very close to mortals, who considers all her followers as her children

Her followers put kindness and mercy as their top virtues, they always try to help one another and people outside the cult. They're pretty chill. It's considered a sin to speak ill of other people, or deny food or help to people in need.

She is consistently crying, as she is forever mourning the loss of her kits and fallen followers, but her tears have healing abilities (a reference to the Merciful Mother's Tears relic that heals the player upon activating it)

She was given the relic by the lamb upon her crowning, and it takes the form of a cane that helps her in her travel

The symbols on her scarf are inspired by the seal of the real world demon forneus

When you gotta sew your partner Vessel back together. Sighhh so annoying.

Wanted to hop in on the chart created by @tidalfoam and @theonewhohyperfixates ✨

Since I always end up only partially unwrapping this Lamb, I made this as a brief summary of them UvU

(Keeping in mind that their stats are partly thanks to the red crown)

[awful-little-goose]

To the bishops; what were your parents like? Did you have any? Or were you guys just raised by Shamura for as long as you can remember? (Given how Leshy is the youngest I assume around leshy’s youth is the last time they saw them?) were they proud of you guys for becoming the bishops or were they just happy that meant you were gonna be able to stay alive in this world? Or were they weary of you? I’m super curious… what happened to them?

The bishops' short mortal lives

Some fun facts !

Kallamar has no parents because squids are known for just leaving their babies on the sea floor, or, for some deep water species, taking care of the eggs but often dying before they hatch. Kallamar's dad thus left, and his mother died before his hatching, so he was raised by his aunt, who, like other members of her specie, was not a great or warm caretaker.

Spiders are excellent mothers ! But they die shortly after hatching, killed by their own spawn or a predator...I'll leave to your imagination what happened to Shamura's mother, but they themselves do not recall.

Worms are also not great parents, and Leshy was kinda...left to his own device as a baby. He handled it well though !

Some frog species are great parents ! Carying their young, feeding them, protecting them...I went this road for Heket, even though she's a brute, her parents were good.

Female cats tend to take care of their kittens together, and cats can be phenomenal parents, caring and loving ! Maybe you'll spot a familiar face in the crowd of felines if you look hard enough...

I wonder how sheep raise their lambs...

The thing about a good character flaw is that it has to be the same thing as their greatest strength just turned up too high. the person who loves deeply and therefore controls. the person who sees everything and therefore trusts nothing. the person who is so loyal they lose themselves. there are no clean villains and no clean heroes and once you understand that in fiction you can't unsee it in people. everyone is just their best quality at the wrong volume.

Our Commitment to Maximum Inclusivity

AO3 was founded partly in response to a growing trend of fanworks being removed from websites that had previously allowed them. This pattern has been observed numerous times throughout fandom history.

Whenever there are fears about censorship on other sites, AO3 sees an increase in the waitlist for our automatic invitation queue. Regardless of their reasons for joining, we welcome any new user to our site who agrees to abide by our Terms of Service. We will not vet new users for "legitimacy", because AO3 is for everyone.

The OTW has no plans to change the content we allow on AO3, and we stand by our commitment to maximum inclusiveness of fanwork content. We will not remove works unless they violate the AO3 Terms of Service, and we don't make decisions based on how many times something is reported. Users do not need to worry that anyone's works will be taken down due to a baseless report or a mass-reporting campaign, if one were to occur.

Regarding the unverified rumors that reports to the Policy & Abuse committee have greatly increased in the past few days, changes in ticket volume can be due to many different factors (including simple coincidence). If you're interested in learning more about how many and what kinds of reports the Policy & Abuse committee receives, we publish information about the previous month's tickets in our monthly newsletters as well as an annual breakdown of ticket types on the OTW website.

Master why does the Lamb call you babygirl

[teaboot]

Do the AI people know that the rest of us who never got on the bandwagon are still doing everything the same way we always have

[teaboot]

The AI boom has changed literally nothing about my day to day life except I now have to work harder to get access to reliable information, all the important admin work is being done wrong, and I keep getting DMs letting me know the perfectly ordinary and plausible photo I liked was actually a fake image generated by a fascist to generate views and churn out ad money for the purpose of funding their tree-powered puppy-flushing toilet

FLOWERS

MASTERPOST

~*~

At first, this small, meek-appearing Lamb offered no promise on first impressions. After many tried and failed attempts with Vessels that were the complete opposite seeming of the Lamb, Narinder was hesitant to form any sort of potential attachment to a former mortal that may fail before slaying his first foe.

Yet the Lamb proved formidable and determined, and their cult-raising skills were the best of any of his former Vessels.

And so, despite himself, as the Lamb continued their superb work The One Who Waits found himself appreciating his Vessel more than just his mere avatar in the Lands of the Old Faith...

~*~

Unfortunately for Narinder, it won't be for a while before Lamb sees him as more than just their lord and master. Matter of fact, they have been married multiple times before and even during this moment so any feelings beyond the cordial Master-Servant (maybe even friends...) were the furthest from the Lamb's mind here.

But times change, and mortals come and go...and Narinder has long served as the Lamb's constant in a world that is constantly changing around them...

[the-artist-grimm]

Your narinder would let me give your adorable lamb a kiss

Uh...I think that's a no...

Also you might wanna run...
