In what subtle way do you say 'I love you'?

watching  them  from  across  the  room

         they  don't  see  the  way  your  eyes  have  softened  as  you  look  at  them.   you  make  sure  they  don't,  at  first,  averting  your  gaze  the  moment  it  seems  like  they  might  turn  your  way  and  see  the  love  in  your  eyes.   but  you  might  work  up  the  courage  after  a  while,  and  it  feels  like  laying  your  soul  bare  for  all  to  see  as  they  finally  meet  the  love  in  your  eyes  --  and,  lo  and  behold,  return  it  with  a  softness  all  their  own.   you're  not  much  of  a  talker.   you  prefer  to  think,  usually  from  a  distance,  and  keep  your  thoughts  to  yourself.   you're  quiet  about  things  in  general ;   you've  never  been  too  comfortable  taking  up  space.   but  you're  great  at  admiring  things :   the  beauty  of  your  surroundings,  the  people  you  love.   you  can  sit  and  watch  and  soak  up  the  beauty  of  the  world  for  a  long  time  when  given  the  chance.   how  much  more  beautiful  would  the  world  be,  if  everyone  could  look  upon  it  with  just  as  much  love  in  their  eyes ?

another mini worldbuilding  ( ft. witches )

* witches are normally mortal, but have a really long lifespan and follow general themes of what their lineage hails from.

* critters to mythical witches holds traits of their critter  ( i.e. butterfly witch has butterfly wings & antenna, bunny witch with bunny ears, etc ), being able to hide those traits to appear more 'human' are stronger on later generations.

   * first generation witches appear more like their non-human form  ( i.e. a dragon witch, rather than human flesh & skintone, bears whatever color scales their dragon form has ).

   * they can shapeshift freely.

* within their kingdom, witches can choose to either live within cities, towns, etc. or within their themed environment.  there are no solid benefits for choosing either or, but its whatever they feel more comfortable with.

* marine life witches lives outside of the witch's kingdom, and preferrably in oceans or other watery areas.  they usually live either in their own communities or with the merfolk or sirens  ( depending on their personality types ).

* common witches  ( witches that appears more human and have no non-humanoid lineage )  are usually themed around their talents.  music witches always have a melody with their magic, art witches can bring their artworks to life, etc.

He steps in quietly, settling on a chair that’s half shrouded by shadows as Marianne works. Undertaker’s not certain as to what she’s doing, but he’s curious. He’s never been around another of his kind who forwent the work expected of them.

Still, Undertaker will wait until she’s finished to ask, “Why’d y’leave?”

        her  mental  organization  is  out  the  window.   she  had  may  had  skipped  a  step  or  two  on  what  she's  doing,  but  that's  a  problem  for  future  marianna  to  deal  with.   it  looked  organized  enough  in  her  book   ( for  now,  at  least ).   taking  note  of  how  quiet  it  was  —  at  least  it  felt  a  lot  more  quiet  than  usual,  she  peeled  herself  away  from  her  little  distraction  task,  turning  to  see  undertaker  sitting  rather  patiently.   fuckin'  hell-

          ❝ leave  wha- ❞     with  a  click  of  her  tongue,  what  he  meant  popped  into  her  head.    ❝ oh,  that.   i  got  bored,  and  wanted  to  do  something  different.   wanted  that  change  of  scenery  of  workplace.   which  isn't  much  of  a  different  scenery  more  like  a  different  flavor,  the  more  i  think  about  it- ❞     shaking  her  head,  marianna  swatted  at  the  air  before  her  to  get  herself  to  stop.   ❝ honestly,  didn't  think  much  on  it.   they  still  got  my  brother  though,  ain't  much  of  a  loss  there. ❞

😥 SAD BUT RELIEVED FACE — is your oc prone to getting stressed out, or is it easy for them to keep their cool? (Yara)

details about ocs !

            yara  keeps  her  cool  rather  easily,  knowing  what  to  do  in  situations  that  would  normally  be  super  stressful.   whatever  stress  she  may  end  up  feeling  she  would  keep  to  herself  anyway.

mini worldbuilding dump wee hoo  ( ft. reapers )

* the reapers have no pupils, instead have a li'l halo in their irises ( bl/ck butler inspo shamelessly )

* a reaper cannot use or hold another reaper's weapon without consent.  it results in severe burns to the hand(s).

     * their weapons are elemental, based on where the reaper's soul originated from.

     * their weapons can transform to almost anything, depending on their profession.

* their weapons are used to protect the souls they're escorting  ( and themselves, of course ), as each soul attracts unwanted attention before judgment ;  from demons to even angels.

* those souls will be escorted to a place where they will be placed under judgment by special ranking reapers.  to keep things simple in conversations, the reapers just refers to them as lord judgment.

     * the place is an island, while looking normal  ( or as normal as an island dedicated to being a giant cemetary can be )  to any living being, it becomes an entirely different place in the eyes of those who can see the dead, to the reapers, and ...  the dead themselves.

    * after the souls are judged, then they will be escorted to the heavens or the realms below  ( which is just more than the hells ) where their fates just become free real estate  ( i.e. they will be taken in to the ranks or just absolutely consumed ).

* ghosts exist.  haunted places are an existing concept.  bounded in their place of death through passed judgment or left unnoticed.

* of course, there are souls that are on the run and reapers are always actively hunting them down to collect them proper.  they're only safe if they get proper protection from a god.  it always pisses the reapers off.

additional points that idk where to put them at but wanted to add

* reapers that are gentle in nature take on tasks on collecting souls of children ;  thus their weapons are usually just musical instruments or really cutesy-looking just to help ease the child.

no bc i'm still hung up on this post and how oc's are expected to deliver more background information than anyone else and i'm here to once again emphasize how crucial interaction and engagement is to their own development both for the character and the writer behind them.

canon characters have the luxury of appearing "more fleshed out" / "self-explanatory" simply because we've witnessed them interact with other characters on screen. oc's don't get to have that when they are first created.

oc's start from scratch. and they can only build themselves based on the way they relate to others. it's literally how humans work.

so, you want to know more about oc's? engage. how? lemme give you some tips based on practices i've applied myself (feel free to reblog and add more):

read their headcanons: most oc's will provide important info there

ask the writer about their headcanons: found a headcanon intriguing? ask for details (e.g. if they mention they have a special item in them at all times, ask what it looks like, what for, its significance). this helps motivate writers to uncover new information about their own character.

ask the character about their headcanons: let the muse explain themselves and see how they behave about something personal, for example.

read their stats: pets? scars? tattoos? anything visible that can be commented on? point it out to the muse and comment on it.

send memes/questions: your best chance is when you see them reblog them so you don't have to come up with anything yourself.

relate them to your muse: does your muse like rock music? ask the character or the writer if they like rock music too.

note: this list isn't exhaustive. it's simply a couple examples from first-hand experience. it also applies to all muses (canon or oc), but needless to say, this post is specifically about oc's, hence the focus on them.

"What if they kissed?" what if the goblins. just for funsies.

“What if they kissed?”

Rain poured heavily on London in sheets, rattling the windows and making one go deaf if they were unfortunate enough to be in a home without proper insulation. Undertaker himself didn’t mind it, and had always kept his door open for Marianna when she needed a place to bunk for the night. A pillow and blanket were offered, and company in the form of conversation as the hour steadily grew late.

The lull filled with the sound of rain, the occasional clink of the cups and plates.

On a whim, Undertaker reached out and lightly took a lock of Marianna’s hair in his hand, studying her curiously. If she said something, he didn’t hear – instead he’d give a quirk of the lips into a smile and lean in to press a kiss to the corner of her lips.

“Best off to bed. S’late.” He hummed into her ear, letting go of her hair as he did so. “You can take the upstairs t’night. I’ll stay down here.”

Her hand came out – stopping him from pulling away proper.

Silence.

Then she leaned in and pressed a proper kiss ‘gainst his lips. Marianna pulled away with a smirk, booping his nose, “Should kiss a girl properly, you cad.” And with a cheeky wink, she hopped off his desk and disappeared behind the curtain that hid the rest of the building.

[holyroseate]

Sprawls out over the graveyard. No, don’t mind the fact he’s half hanging into the newly dug-out grave. “Not many droppin’ like flies.” He complained to Marianna. Business seemed to be deader than – dead.

                  ❝ if  only  there  was  a  plague  or  legalization  of  crime  for  a  few  hours. ❞     marianna  reached  out  and  pat  at  undertaker,  sitting  right  at  the  edge  of  the  grave  as  if  she's  sitting  on  a  cliff.    ❝ its  like  whatever  fate  is  telling  us  to  take  a  vacation  or  something.   almost  tempting  me  to  see  if  i  can  cause  problems  on  purpose. ❞
