Remember to specify muse for multi-muse blogs!

D - Dominance: Are they into those types of power dynamics? Or do they like to stick to whose topping and bottoming? If they are into it why? If they aren't why not?

Z - Zones: Favorite places they like to be touched? Are some less obvious than others? Any places they absolutely hate being touched?
[my only sinday contribution is a reminder that troy is canonically into milfs
Also that I headcanon him trans but post fancy sci fi bottom surgery so that dick is custom crafted for your pleasure]
[people talk about the twins childhood on Nekrotafeyo and how the abuse they took from their father there shaped them as characters, but no one ever really talks about the early days on Pandora. I think so much of what we see of them in canon as villains was shaped by the years that we don't see.
Their childhood definitely set them up to fail in those years. They were completely isolated as kids with no human contact outside of their parents. They were not at all taught how to survive in the real world because their dad's expectation was that they would never be allowed to see that world.
Canon isn't clear about at what age they left Nekrotafeyo for Pandora, but they couldn't have been older than 18. I personally put them at 16, but it honestly could've even been younger. They were still kids and they went from having never spoken to another human being, never seeing a shop, never seeing a car, no concept of money, etc. etc. to being right in the middle of the most dangerous planet in existence fighting to survive with absolutely no support system or back up plan.
Being so isolated, and so codependent due to being previously conjoined and due to Troy literally relying on Tyreen for his survival even before you get into the emotional aspect of their codependency, they grew up with the mindset of only being able to trust and rely on each other. Once they found themselves surrounded by people on Pandora who wanted them dead or worse, it only amplified this. Trusting only each other went from being a comfort to being a necessity for their survival.
This us vs them mindset absolutely contributed to their ability to hurt and manipulate people without a second thought. They learned quickly that it was kill or be killed on Pandora and they fought for the position they're currently in.]
[Tyreen got that massive scar across her face defending Troy from a wild animal on their home planet when they were 11. Troy had always been the weaker of the two and he was cornered; she saved his life.
Troy lost his missing tooth in a bar fight on Pandora. Troy picked the fight after a guy wouldn't stop harassing Tyreen. She could've killed the guy, but that would've brought unwanted attention to their siren powers. Troy got involved mostly to prevent that from happening. They were 16 and had only left their home planet two weeks previous. It was their first real discovery of how dangerous civilization can be.]
[additionally: they're living in a trailer with basically nothing but a bunk bed and streaming equipment until ty gets famous enough to pay the bills]

“Heyyy, war hero! I guess it wasn't really a war. Space hero? War hero but the war was the metaphorical war between humans and their quest for knowledge at the expense of their own safety? Space war hero?” He winces at his own words, sucking breath between his teeth that whistles through the gap where he's missing one.
“Tell you what, I'm gonna workshop that before I get you on a live stream with us.”

[I make fun of it a lot, but I honestly really love Troy having his own last name tattooed across his stomach.
Mostly because it DOES come across as cheesy and shallow and egotistical at first glance, just like much of what he does. But, I really do think it's deeper than that if you get to know him. Mostly because Calypso ISN'T his legal last name; it's a stage name that him and Tyreen chose for themselves after cutting ties with their abusive father.
“Calypso” isn't really just a shrine to his own ego. It's symbolic of the identity and life he's created for himself, in sharp contrast to the life his father wanted for him. When he became a Calypso, he stopped being a DeLeon and stopped carrying his father's legacy and his upbringing around with him.
In addition, he isn't the only Calypso. “Calypso” is symbolic of not just his own identity, but of the bond between him and his only family, his sister. “Calypso” represents him and Tyreen against the world.]
PRE-ESTABLISHED CONNECTIONS WISHLIST * are you looking for some unique dynamics or interesting plots? send me a symbol to tell me what kind of connection you want with my muse! also feel free to switch things around and adjust as necessary! use these as suggestions!
🌳 - our muses dated for a while until they realized they made much better friends than romantic partners. now they're just friends and they do not want to talk about their dating history, thank you very much
🌹 - our muses' parents were friends, and they brought our muses together as kids and made them hang out all the time... so now they're kinda friends by convenience
💐 - your muse dated my muse's best friend, and it didn't work out, so my muse's best friend set us up on a date and now we're here
🌸 - our muses made out at a party, then exchanged numbers because it was really, really good. like, really good
🌼 - your muse owns a store that my muse loves to go to all the time
☘️ - someone in my muse's family set a curse on your muse's family, and maybe there's some way my muse can help reverse it to save yours
☀️ - our muses meet in an anonymous chat room online and fall in love, not realizing they know each other in real life. that's awkward
❄️ - our muses sat next to each other in a crowded theater and bonded during intermission
🍎 - our muses have been best friends since they were children
🍑 - your muse was "the one that got away" in my muse's life and now they're reuniting after years of never seeing each other
🥨 - our muses are on again, off again lovers who never seem to agree on what they should be

🍩 - our muses live next door to each other and slowly bond over all the helpful neighborly duties they do for each other
📺 - your muse was my muse's first kiss, and that's definitely complicated their friendship over the years and made things difficult to navigate
🚗 - our muses agreed years ago that if they didn't find a romantic partner by a certain age, they would get married. well! they both just reached that age!
🎲 - your muse is a famous actor. my muse is a simple bookstore owner. cue all the romance and drama (à la notting hill)
🎹 - your muse is a member of a royal family, and meets my muse (an average citizen) when they escape from all the pressures of their life (à la roman holiday)
PROMPTS FROM BETTER CALL SAUL * assorted dialogue from season 1 of the show, adjust as necessary
oh, to be nineteen again!
me, personally, if i were held accountable for some of the stupid decisions i made when i was nineteen...
i bet if we were in church right now, i'd get a big "amen!"
they did a dumb thing. we're not denying that.
nobody got hurt. not a soul. very important to keep that in mind.
so... trespassing? that's a bit of a reach, don't you think?
call me crazy, but i don't think they deserve to have their bright futures ruined by a momentary, minute, never-to-be-repeated lapse in judgement.
you're bigger than that.
thank you for restoring my faith in the judicial system.
son of a bitch. fine.
what did you do to my brother?
why don't you look where you're going?
listen! it was an accident!
somebody call the cops!
how are you gonna fix this? what are you gonna do to make things right?
you have meddled with the primal forces of nature, and i won't have it!
do you want me to call security?
isn't that what you wanted?
you know i'm gonna beat this.
you proceed from false principles. your argument is built on quicksand, therefore it collapses.
i might as well head down to skid row and sell plasma!
money is not "beside the point," money is the point!
hand to god, i wasn't gonna say this, but you are broke.
this is what has you all worked up?
i'm the rising tide that raises all dinghies.
it could happen to anyone.
wow. you got a mouth on you.
you know what i smell. i smell lies.
i'm undercover, okay? you got me.
you already beat the living hell out of them.
i'm gonna break their arms. and i'm gonna break their legs.
i'm the best lawyer ever.
it takes ten minutes to walk down here!
you're like a troll under a bridge.
hey, you asked for me, and i have come.
what they were telling me... it's problematic.
you want to tell me your thoughts and weigh in?
you miserable piece of shit. you set me up.
you think you're funny?
i was never in the house.
you didn't... oh god, you didn't. you didn't do the sex-robot voice, did you?
that's why people hate lawyers.
how come you let me off the hook back there?
i'm going back to work. why don't you quit while you're ahead and go on your way?
finally, someone believes me!
it's human nature to want to stay close to home.
please, just don't tell anyone about the money.
you expect me to believe that shit?
i'd cut the cute attitude right about now if i were you.
you ratted on me. there will be consequences.
you know how much trouble you caused me?
i get that... but this? you're better than this.
i refuse to consider myself a victim.
are you ready for that?
i may have seen one of these before.
it's a little... sexual, maybe?
you're completely disgusting, you know that?
oh, here's your coffee. hope it's good to the last drop.
i'm asking you to take a few ounces of lukewarm coffee and spill it on him.
i'm very sorry to hear it.
anything else you wanna ask?
what exactly did you tell them?
how could you possibly think that?
why didn't you ask me? why didn't you come to me?
a deal? i hate that terminology.
you're telling us there are drug dealers and murderers walking the streets, but instead of going after them, they want to put an innocent man in jail.
you broke into a nursing home?
what number exactly did you have in mind?
so... what are you packing?
how do you not pack a gun?
what are you talking about?
the lesson is... if you're gonna be a criminal, do your homework.
i thought you were proud of me.
just save your breath, okay? you're gonna be fine.
this was the greatest week of my life.
i know what stopped me. and you know what? it's never stopping me again.

Could anyone blame Rhys for being nervous? He was cornered by Troy Calypso. His enemy, after all. Even if he and his sister weren't partnered with Maliwan, they were spreading bandits and chaos throughout the galaxy. Exactly the kind of thing Jack had been trying to fix, come to think of it.
He thought about calling Jack. It was better to hold off until he really needed it, though. If he came to Jack with every little problem a lot more people would die.
Actually, he should probably call Zer0. Like, now. Or at least let the Calypso know he could.
"Okay, well, I have Atlas security dialed up on my ECHO already," he said. He was backed up against an alley wall. If Troy wanted to shoot him in the face right now, he could. Or suck him dry. Wait, did both the twins do that, or just one? Rhys was scared either way. "So if you want to talk you should say it quick."
Troy presses a button on his mechanical arm and his drone camera materializes out of it. Instead of recording for once, it projects a hologram; dozens of complicated graphs and spreadsheets.
“Okay, yeah, look- this is what we could potentially get from Maliwan. This teeny tiny line over here? That's what we could get from Atlas. You guys kind of suck. But, this over here is the effort it's been taking to wring supplies out of Katagawa. And this line that's in the negative is what it's doing to my self esteem. So, that's not ideal.”
He's not sure that Rhys is really able to make sense of the graphs. He's not sure that the graphs really make sense to anyone but himself, but visualizations help him to figure things out. His behind the scenes effort doesn't stop with video recording and editing. He runs the budget and strategizes, though Tyreen has final veto power.
“So then this chart over here is what all the stats look like together. The effort required with Maliwan brings their line down to here. If you cooperate and don't do weirdo shit like spritzing me with your not-boyfriend's cologne and sniffing me, the low effort required to rub shoulders with Atlas would bring your line up to here. It's not all about the monetary. There's pros and cons. Passive income is preferable to slumming it with Katagawa's pleasure spheres. Are you following?"
ok @border-spam’s post ignited some feral urge to redraw an old piece she commissioned me so instead of taking a few minutes to work on blocking the last few frames of my studio project i instead sat for 7 hours straight redrawing this from scratch old ver:
