You’re a washed up 30 year old who wastes money on porn
This hit my inbox at like 4am and I couldn't help but laugh.
Why would I waste money on porn? Sugar, I help make it. Whoever this is, you don't know anything about me lol
Kill yourself knife-ear
You first, Troglodyte.
What would his favourite candies be? Is he more a fan of chocolate or hard candy?
When it comes to sweets Rillumas is more of a fruit person - little bit of a health nut he is. But, if he were to choose between the two? Chocolate all the way. I mean come on, you can pour it over fruit - so it can't be bad for you, yeah?
Give me body horror in magic.
Give me pyromancy that burns the skin off your hand until your bones are showing. Give me arcane that cooks you inside-out from manaburn. Give me cryomancy that cracks your skin and chips it away. Give me necromancy that causes your teeth to turn necrotic and your eyes to glass over white.
I don’t want cute magic. I want magic to be a raw and dangerous force. I want those who harness it to feel the full effects of what a great and terrible thing it is. I want mages who wear the effects of their magic on their skin and in their bones.
That’s the good stuff.
Give me that light healing that is like being cauterized from the inside out. Give me the agony of feeling your bones being reknit by nature magic. Give me the sensation of feeling like you are drowning when a shaman works their healing magic. Make it -uncomfortable-.
FUCK. YES.
Why on earth should it all be sparkles and giggles? Healing shouldn’t be instantaneous, nor should it be painless.
I mean, RP what you want, but this is my preference by far.
Give me magic that has consequences. Give me healing that does heal better than mundane methods, but at the risk of killing you from shock in the process. Give me a reason people in a world with magic have scars, curses that actually act like curses and have a 90/10 downside/upside ratio, the potential of actually becoming addicted to the endorphin rush that comes after this kind of healing, and the necessity that magical healers still know how the body works or they risk magically re-knitting those parts in the wrong order.

The water is blessed, said the priests; it is holy. Any evil it touches, it will burn away.
But what if it is diluted? asked the acolytes.
The priests smiled.
It can’t be, they said.
***
The first of the holy water splashed across the brow of the baby, wailing and shivering in her mother’s arms, and the droplets ran over newborn skin to fall upon the soil.
They drained into the earth, mingling with the dew; and the dew became holy too.
***
The grass that grew on the soil drank some of the water in, drawing it into cells that were instantly blessed, filled with purity. Later, the sheep grazed upon the grass. The blades were sweet and lush, fat with rain, and as the sheep ate, the blessing in the grass flourished within it, coursing through now-sacred blood.
***
The rest of the water sank lower through the soil, washed down with the rains. Groundwater flowed, consecrated, sweeping below the earth beneath the reach of roots or the eyes of humanity.
There was more water there, and the holiness grew.
***
It can’t be? the acolytes asked. How can it not be diluted?
It converts, said the priests. A drop of holy water in a flask from the lake turns the whole flask holy.
What if a drop reaches the lake? asked the acolytes.
Why would that happen? asked the priests.
***
The butcher slew the sheep, taking the meat for cawl. It bubbled in its pot over the fire, the water from the cells of the mutton leaching out into the rest of the stew until all the family groaned at the sweet scent.
It tastes better today, they said, as they ate heartily. We wonder why?
***
The groundwater reached the river, and the whole vein became holy.
***
The butcher’s son was caught by the vampire the following night, wandering home just a little too late, a little too drunk, a little too alone. I wonder if you could help me? the vampire asked, and the butcher’s son followed where he should not have gone.
The vampire sank hungry fangs into unwilling flesh, and the butcher’s son accepted the end.
But it did not come for him.
***
What can have happened? the vampires asked afterwards. What strange power is held by the butcher’s boy? What did he do?
It was a mystery, baffling and wrong. The vampire had been strong and savvy, a hunter of renown. Now, her veins burned, her body aflame from the inside out.
Sickness, maybe? they said uneasily; but there was no sickness that could take a vampire.
***
The river gave drinking water to all the people of the region, in towns and villages and farmsteads alike. The holiness grew, spreading from land to bodies, young and old, rich and poor, believer and unbeliever, coursing through veins and hearts.
And the river flowed on.
***
Something is wrong, the vampires said.
It was clear now; every vampire in the land was sickening, burning from the inside out as they fed.
No sickness, said the elders, shivering and broken. A corruption. A taint, spreading unchecked like rot. We must leave this land, move elsewhere.
There is something in the water.
***
The river reached the ocean, and the holiness spread from shore to distant shore.
***
We are safe here, the vampires said, collapsing on foreign soil. We cannot touch the ocean; but why should we need to? The humans cannot drink it either. We are safe here.
We are safe.
***
The sun shone over the waves.
Water rose on the warmth, evaporating to the sky. It greeted the clouds, and the holiness blossomed through them.
***
When the rains fell, the vampires screamed; for they knew the end was coming. Every raindrop burned, every splash agony, and they wept and watched in horror as the rains filled the wells, filled the soils, filled the lakes and rivers and valleys and moors, the corruption seizing the new land in its iron grip.
This is the end, they whispered, crumbling to dust. This is the end.
This is the end.
***
The water is blessed, said the priests; it is holy. Any evil it touches, it will burn away.
But what if it is diluted? asked the acolytes.
The priests smiled.
It can’t be, they said.
I am astonished that almost 100 people have in some way enjoyed this Water Cycle fanfic.

◉ - Any other question of your choosing
So, I jokingly asked someone to draw Rillumas and they ended up actually doing it! This is my first picture ever drawn of my boy and I’m so hyped it’s unreal. If you’d like to commission your own, their in-game name is Nyamine-Wyrmrest Accord!
🖤 - can your muse be selfish?
After looking up some selfish tendencies and traits, I'd have to say Rillumas doesn't display them as personality traits.
He may have low self-worth (that will typically display itself as prideful anger), but it doesn't come from a place of attention seeking. Mostly from being taught that from a young age - which he is slowly moving past.
That's really the one that applies to him the most.

TMI Tuesday: What is the funniest thing that's ever happened to them?
Trying to be a good father, Rillumas took his daughter Nat'ilia to the Carnival de Lune - with the Fourth War coming to a close and him not being home in quite a long time, he thought it would be a nice outing for them. Well, Guardesmen attending as well as other allies and acquaintances unknowingly made the night... difficult for Rillumas.
It isn't much of a secret that Rillumas has no 'lady friend' as a few of them put it, asking questions about HOW he has a daughter - more than a few times he had to drag someone off to explain that he adopted his niece.
The whole thing was embarrassing because not only does the Guarde still jab and joke about it, but a handful of his... less respectful allies still bring it up.
Not sure if you'd count this as funny, but everyone else got more than a few good laughs out of it.
TMI Tuesday

Send me “Beyond the Grave” and I will choose a deceased person from my muse’s backstory to have a conversation with yours.
Pssst
Hey, are you an artist or writer with WIPs?
Come here... I got a secret for you pssst come ‘ere
waiting in deep suspense
Psst you ready here comes the secret
Here it comes
I am also very curious about this secret
Your time spent enjoying the creative process is infinitely more valuable that any final project you create. So stop putting yourself down for never finishing or posting those WIPs because every moment you spent creating something you loved is a moment not wasted. Your progress and talent is measured by your passion not your number of posts.
This post went from 3k to 7k overnight and that just goes to show how many of you need to hear this so make sure you don’t ever forget it
Want me to gush about my OCs?
Send me a “🖊+an OC“ and I will talk about that OC! It can be a headcanon, a fun fact, a small paragraph of backstory- anything!
Alternatively, send in just a “🖊“ and I will talk about any one of my OCs at random!
let your character fuck up. please. let them fuck up on a scale so massive that this particular thing cannot be salvaged. let their fuck up have permanent consequences. and stoooooooooooooooop having them being the smartest person in the room who always has a sharp comeback to put their enemies down, and who always handles their enemies with grace or at least an air of superiority that s justified because they’re so cool and smart and clever™ let them bleed for their mistakes, let them MAKE those mistakes, and let that bleeding be ugly and disgraceful. let them suffer for their own mistakes, and let them suffer in knowing that they cannot fix. and let other people hate them for the shit they’ve done, and for once let the haters not be ‘petty bad people’. Let the haters be right.
