AESTHETIC : ozias diakos. half-drow cleric of the raven queen.
"Ready to enter the belly of the beast?"
PARTY BANTER // accepting !
The answer was - hopefully to no one's surprise, no. Ozias was not ready to deal with another hellish fight against whatever beast of undeath lurked in that cave. But it was their duty.
It was the job, the destiny, the whatever other bullshit word that was needed to convince him to move his feet. ❝ Are we ever truly ? ❞ Comes the simpler, calmer response.
He shot Sypha a grin, giving a small bow as he gestured inside the cave. ❝ Mages first. ❞ Even if he was, by all means, also a mage!
Quotes taken from Black Sails season 4 || Accepting
@eulogyrite asks : ❝ Every fight I have ever won… every death I have escaped, every sacrifice I have had bled out of me, it will all have to be repeated just to get things back to where they were a few hours ago. There’s some kind of hell it seems to me to be. ❞
"Yes.. I know what you mean." There was silence, only filled by the crackling fire. "But we must keep going for some reason or another. Spite or.. Family.. or.. whatever it is you care most about." "Eugh--" Astarion cringed at himself. "You know i'm not the sentimental type."
Astarion had the melancholy of any true vampire. The drama, the beauty of undeath that so many see as some marble statuette. The one thing he lacked, however, was the ability to give a pep talk.
It was enough to make Ozias give a weak bark of a laugh. ❝ No, quite the opposite. You're lucky it's somehow charming. ❞
A deep breath, sighed out like it'd somehow release the weight from his chest. He couldn't look his companion in the eye, pale eyes sticking to the fire. ❝ What is it you care about most ? Simply ... survival ? ❞
OOC. sorry i just played e33 for 5 hours straight after working 10 hour days for 5 days straight i'm mush rn and also highkey want to make a verso or gustave blog send help tell me no --
PROMPTS FROM CRITICAL ROLE: THE MIGHTY NEIN * assorted dialogue from the campaign, adjust as necessary
yeah. the world does need an asshole.
you're not my type.
i don't normally speak with the dead on a first date, but we'll think about it.
are you secretly in love with me?
it's a chair. it's a standard chair.
i'm really really nice, but i don't always make the best decisions.
sleep well with your bad decisions.
that sounds like someone whose ass i would like to kick.
it's entirely off-putting how disarmingly charming you are. i genuinely do not know how to react. take that as a compliment.
is that a natural thing for you guys to just attack each other in moments of stress?
fucking seaweed wraps are the shit!
well, my social anxiety is getting the best of me. i'm taking a walk. goodbye.
i've never traveled with a bunch of people i thought would die in front of me.
tell you what. i start sweating real hard, i'll let you know, okay?
please. please help me.
the rule is that evil dies.
you need me more than i need you.
eventually, someday somebody will pray for a miracle, pray for something to save them to whatever gods are nearby, and that prayer will be answered because you'll show up.
you were not born with venom in your veins.
i'm asking you to open your heart to chaos.
nothing happens for a reason. it's absolute fucking chaos.
we have to keep them from being... dead.
have you ever had a blueberry cupcake?
i smell like a crayon.
can i get a hug?
i could be her beacon.
i think we have a job to finish.
i pick and choose my apologies.
it's better to have someone's word broken than to have no word at all.
i would rather you put your faith in me for something more important than my curiosity.
oh shit, are we a cult?
i heard you.
man, you make vulnerability look so easy.
there's a dick hidden somewhere in there.
you pick and choose your fights. me? best not to give in to a man i can crush with one hand.
it's still you though, right?
you don't get to talk anymore.
it's a regular fucking turtle.
i'm trying to be nice. this is as painful for me as it is for you. just give me five seconds.
you are blue.
i mean, i don't want to impose, but i'm bleeding profusely.
i did my best every town i went to and every town i left, no matter how they treated me, and a lot of them treated me with deep disrespect. i left every town better than i found it.
i'm always ready to make a damn fool of myself.
what does your blood taste like to a vampire?
Cups his face, pulls him down to her height, then presses kisses all over his cheeks and forehead.
RANDOM ASKS // always accepting !
He had always known he was considerably tall for someone of elven heritage. Even generally, it simply made him stand out of a crowd even more. In this context, however, Ozias found it to be all too amusing.
Still, the half-drow was pulled down with no complaints. He simply hummed in content, eyes closing. By the time she was stopping, he peaked open an eye. ❝ Why did you stop ? ❞
"this is your badness level ------ it's unusually high for someone your size."
❝ Well... I feel like there's higher. Could be worse. Especially since I am rather tall. ❞
OOC. tell me ur thoughts on da silly (art cred.)
Ozias’ laughter and words made Sirius step back as if a shockwave had hit him. Unable to respond for a moment, he blinks to regain his composure. Similar to having dropped his weapons in the middle of a fight. Heart skips a beat... maybe he was sick? Cursed? RUDE.
With a shrug, he ignores his still-heated cheeks, and instead turns to the human fighter, dismissively looking him up and down. “My companion just saved your life... maybe you should stop being a racist... especially since you are a ugly round-ear...” Aradin’s expression soured, stepping forward, hand going to his sword. But luckily, his lady companion was more intelligent. Putting a hand on Aradin’s arm, shaking her head and pulled him away.
“I really think people should choose ONE struggle. Being ugly AND being insufferable is simply too much.” He smirks at his drow companion.
“Well... now... I honestly hope no one else makes me regret having helped them...”
Humans had far more ego than they had any right to keep. Especially Aradin, from all the unpleasantries they would surely continue to receive. Punching him likely wouldn't have upset his Matron, but... the man was already leaving.
Ozias gave a mocking wave as the human left before shooting a smirk back to Sirius. ❝ If there's more, we'll do much more than simply call them ugly. Promise. ❞
In all honesty, if not for his companion, he certainly would've done worse. No murder, no. But punching? Demeaning? Calling him the world's biggest whiner? Pathetic asshole? Yes, very much so.
❝ Now come, let's go find a trader so we can see about getting better equipment before settling in. ❞
go rest. i'm not asking.
MAKING DEMANDS // accepting !
It had been a long day. On top of barely resting the night before, his previous fever had barely broken. Some parts of it still clung to him, weighing down his shoulders. Perhaps he wore it too obviously, however. Too obviously for Florence, at least.
The demand isn't wholly unexpected, but the sternness actually catches him off guard. Ozias stopped in his tracks, prepping to undo the buckle on his sheath.
Glowing eyes looked to Florence, ❝ While I'm certain I look half dead by now, I do need wine. ❞ And food. And mead, if he could find it. Somewhere in camp, surely, someone had stashed some away.
Wearing an expression of a man with his hand caught in the cookie jar, he made a small noise in the back of his throat. ❝ Food, too. Food, yeah. Will you join me ? ❞
BALDURS GATE 3 PARTY BANTER PROMPTS LIST.
all of the following prompts are taken from party banter between the companions in larian studios' baldurs gate 3 (2023). there should be no spoilers! also, a disproportionate amount of these are from astarion and karlach. i'm not sorry.
I am enjoying our walks together, aren't you, [ name ]?
You'll be as depraved as the rest of us in no time.
Friend of yours?
Were you always so sneaky?
If there's hope for me there's hope for anyone.
How are we not there yet? My feet are killing me.
This is what I get for trying to strike up conversation.
We're not going to have trouble, are we?
If we continue this way, we may get too close for comfort.
Don't get too comfortable. We shouldn't overstay our welcome in such a place.
Do you have pet names for each other yet?
[ name ]! Was that a joke?
You know what - that is not the easiest of questions for me to answer.
Given your own nature, are you really the one to judge?
You can read?!
I'm surprised - I expected you to turn your back once you got what you wanted.
I wouldn't know a flirtation if you whacked me alongside the head with it.
Why stay somewhere safe and comfortable when we could be in mortal peril?
Can't say I love what they've done with the place.
I'm learning to enjoy the taste of chaos. Count me in.
At least you didn't tell me to 'be myself'.
You have so much to learn. Repeat after me: honey muffin, sweetie pie, sugarplum.
Nice to be in a crowd of normal people for once.
So [ name ], how is your sad, hopeless pining going?
You seemed a million miles away just then.
I fear I've been rather hasty to judge you, [ name ].
Ready to enter the belly of the beast?
Step one of starting a conversation: think before you speak.
I hear your relationship has taken on a new aspect recently…
All right, just keep it down. We're conspicuous enough without your hyena call.
Not one for roughing it, I see.
Why not have a little fun?
You're right, of course. Forgive me.
My money's on you, [ name ].
The echoes - listen! They're coming from three directions!
Want me to carry you?
Feeling at home?
Treat them right, or you'll have me to answer to.
Oh, darling, would you?
No doubt they found me too intimidating.
A girl could get used to this.
Now I don't know what to believe.
Well - yes, it was a joke.
I know that, too. It just wasn't funny.
And here I thought I rubbed you the wrong way.
Man, it's good to be home. First round on who?
Oh, I wouldn't actually leave. After all, where would you be without me?
You've quite the knack for finding the bright side of things, haven't you?
Well what would impress you, then?
Let's just stop this conversation right here, shall we?
Must've been an awful day for the people who lived here
You've clearly thought this through a great deal. I'm impressed and appalled in equal measure.
Sure, but think of the stories you'll be able to tell.
I never was scared of the shadows.
I know you're not really as heartless as all that.
I judged you wrongly. I'm sorry.
Are you charging for this sage advice, or is sticking your nose into my business just a hobby?
Pragmatism, thy name is [ name ].
That's ironic, coming from you.
We're either very clever or very lucky.
You do not need luck to survive, [ name ]. Not when you have me.
That will make getting word to my mother rather tricky.
Stop gawking at the decor. This place is dangerous.
I can't tell if you're joking.
So, what's it like caring for someone other than yourself, [ name ]?
You think I'm beautiful?
I feel it too. Here if you need a pick-me-up.
Yet another thing we have in common. We're two peas in a pod.
Is it so unbelievable that they would simply like me?
Use your words.
You gonna catch me if I eat a brick?
[ name ], I've heard you talking in your sleep.
Let's never speak of this again.
You can take a day off once in a while, [ name ]
Hey! Something bit me.
Cheer up. It might be all downhill from here.
I love a nice secret hideaway, don't you?
Think the bar is open?
stop laughing , this isn't funny .
MAKING DEMANDS // accepting !
Truly, there wasn't a single thing not hilarious about this. A vampire, travelling with a cleric of the Raven Queen. A deity who had a very clear distain for anything upsetting the balance.
A petty, silly, lying vampire.
Ozias still took pity on him, stifling the laugh. A crooked smirk remained, a gloved hand held closer to his face. ❝ A hungry vampire, attempting to snack on a cleric of the Raven Queen in the middle of the night ? Rather hilarious actually, but to each their own. ❞
If he wasn't laughing, he'd certainly feel a whole lot of something about this. So it was easier to take it lightly. ❝ I thought rogues were meant to be stealthier than that, dear Astarion. ❞
Dear is Astarion's word, but there's humor in tossing it back at him. ❝ For both our sakes, keep those fangs away from me. In the meanwhile, how can I assist in a way that does not cause my Matron to abandon me ? ❞
