i need you to understand that i love roathe with the passion of a trillion stars, this man will never be safe or know peace (28)

Raf headcanon (18+)

you know what? i can't take it anymore, i've kept this to myself for far too long, and yes i will elaborate eventually (when i finish writing the fic)

there is a whole thing about Raf's peen situation and i've come to advise you that you're all wrong and i'm sorry for gatekeeping this info from you, i've been keeping it inside since the 3rd myth came out and i couldn't hold on any longer

Sylus has two dicks when all dragon'd up/or depending on the writer and their determination on whether or not reader/MC gets to get railed into demolition via twin dicks

Raf does NOT have two dicks. He has a prehensile tentacle-esque dick.

ALLOW ME TO EXPLAIN WHY I'M RIGHT

CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING: Raf is Lemurian, Lemurian is basically a mermaid and thus undersea dweller

Commonly, water dwelling creatures: a) go to land to procreate if amphibious, b) procreate by "crop dusting" (see: release semen into the water around their target mate), or c) insertion with an organ that typically has claspers or some method by which they can remain attached for the purpose of procreation

Ultimately, yes, it (for humans) is an enjoyable experience when done right, blah blah, but the entire purpose is to procreate, and thus FUNCTIONALLY should be thought about less than "oooh that'd be cool/nice/OwO"

THUS I believe that it would be more tentacle like, prehensile, and long with the intent of deep insemination for obvs reasons

do with this information what you like, but I intend to write it out and start this agenda

TLDR: Wiggly tentacle dick Raf

LADS men and pathetic silly things that they do

Warnings: Alcohol consumption (Xavier), emetophobia warning (Xavier, as a result of the alcohol consumption), drug partaking mention (Caleb, it's we3d), the LADS men being pathetic

Valko ain't in this because he's yet to be released and I will maybe one day do something about him when we know more, I shall withhold my judgement of his pathetic silly thing

one time, xavier got so drunk he vomited actual rainbows, and just sat there looking all sad and sparkly. when he's hungover he's just so depressed and upset because he also gets this weird light congestion in his nose and just sniffles real gross but it's light coming out of his nose.

when sylus is waking up/tired, he doesn't talk good. lots of slurred words, noises that indicate how he feels instead of actually speaking. more pouting and grabby hands than should be legal (he drags you back into bed, sorry, you're required to stay in bed till forever)

caleb did a weed one (1) time, and had to help a doorframe hold itself up (see: couldn't stand, so he had to lean on a doorframe and refused to move). this continued until he started literally sobbing about how much he loves you, and eventually he managed to get home (with great assistance) and ended up just crying about how much he missed you, while hugging you, and talking about how you're the best and his friends suck

rafayel has tasted every single one of his paints. literally all of them. he knows if they're mixed properly by giving them a little lick. he loves painting with this one specific shade of purple (it makes the BEST sunset/sunrise/shadows) but it tastes VILE to him, so he always does the tiniest lil drop onto his tongue and then BLEH face

zayne gets pathetic over trying new treats, and will puppy dog eyes you when you withhold a treat from him so you can keep his attention for a topic you have to get off your chest. he is VERY invested, because he loves you, but could you just let him have *one* of the chocolates with strawberry filling so he can enjoy that and listen to you? please? please? no? his eyebrows lower and get real sad, it is so pathetic, let him have the choccy

So. The fuse bead/puzzle bead/Perler bead/pīn doù community on Red Note snatched me by my neck and hasn’t let go. Don’t rescue me, I’m right where I wanna be. Anyway, someone shared some Tip Top Hop Boingie patterns for the upcoming event and I locked all the way in

(Did I forget the catch-lights on Sylus’? Yes, but I have a plan on how to fx that)

Reblog if you don't use Generative AI to write fanfics/original fics or to create fanart/original art.

[astraaureus]

Hot take but Roathe's "victory through seeming submission" line isn't a good case argument for him being a sub because the context of that line is about what he had to do in order to survive rather than something he does willingly. He said it's something he learned to do, rather than something he does voluntarily. And it kinda implies that if he had it his way he'd have complete control of the situation, but he's not in a position to do that so he has to play mind games in order to take some of that power back for himself.

Like there is plenty of evidence towards Roathe being a sub (there's also plenty towards him being a dom which is why I think he's a switch who could go either way) but using that specific line as the big "oh he's a sub/bottom" line is kinda unsettling given the lack of agency at least to me given WHY he's saying it and the context surrounding it.

starting to suspect that tech bros actually just don’t know what reading is

[menaceanon]

I know I just reblogged this but I think the really important takeaway here is that this techbro is not genuinely asking “how can we improve fanfiction?” What he’s asking is “how can we tap into this massive market?”

I keep thinking about how many of these chat bots are free—for now. And of course they are! It’s a classic marketing technique when you’re trying to get your foot in the door with a novel product: let folks use it, let them get used to it, then start charging for it. You don’t have to look any further than streaming to see a very recent example of how this happens.

And it’s going to happen with AI.

There’s nothing these assholes love more than making money off of other people’s hard work. But you can’t legally charge for fanfic! So how do you get around that? You charge for a chat bot (which you trained on other people’s fanfic). You can’t charge for the content, but you can charge for the thing that produces the content.

AI is theft, and there are a whooooole lot of people gleefully looking to make a buck off of our hard work.

Don’t use AI, don’t feed AI your favorite fic writers’ and artists’ work, don’t read AI fic, don’t engage with it. And if you do, well, I can’t force you to give a shit about other people, but AI is a paywall being built, brick by brick, between you and the things you love. Stop slathering on the mortar.

more ramblings from your local idiot

Roathe is a tactician, through and through.

I wonder how deeply it would effect him to fall in love with Drifter, knowing full well that the Drifter is scary dog privilege. Is a literal demi-god in that they possess all the wild powers of the Tenno, and *reject* death by simply looping time to a point prior to their death. Can create an entirely new world from their imagination and desperation alone.

Like at first they're 100% a tool. And he says as much, implies it, would never deny it, because it's the Orokin way to use things. People.

But then he comes to like them. He liked some of his soldiers too. He still used them, as was his duty as a tactician. As was the necessity of the time.

And then he falls in love. And he cannot reconcile the idea of ever losing that love. It would undoubtedly hurt him in ways he refuses to think about, because he'd rather not, but in the dark of the night, or a moment of quiet, the strategist, utilitarian part of his mind is louder than his heart.

He takes solace in the fact that they cannot die. It's the only thing that would keep him sane and stop him from locking them away in a gilded cage, becoming entirely what he doesn't want to be (a captor, what he'd had) but able to be selfish in that his love is *safe* and he can keep it. Because a man so devoid of having been loved, of having felt safe, affection, friendship, and all the other wonderful things of having someone love you deeply and truly, who came from a time and place like the Orokin Empire? He may choose to do better than he had in the past, if redeemed, but that won't necessarily stop him from deciding to jealously guard his most treasured thing.

And what's more is how that would effect the greater scope of things. I doubt Roathe would want to just twiddle his thumbs, he'd want to help and plan, because it's *his thing*. He does it without thinking hard, because he just likes to mull things over in his head and optimise, strategise - it's mental stimulation he was born to feel.

So, he's in position now to come up with a plan. And his very best plans, the ones with the highest capacity for success, or perhaps the "hit the 'oh shit' button, we need the big guns" plans, involve Drifter. Of course they do, Drifter has the ripcord - punch the floor and the world is righted again. Begin again. An insurance policy. But what if they all forgot and Drifter didn't, and it was another hundred, maybe thousand, more loops of watching them all die just grating on the Drifter's psyche. Could he ask them to do that, to look his love in the eyes and tell them to suffer?

What about the discussion about Lotus and the Tenno being a problem. He UNDOUBTEDLY also has had the same thoughts about literally everyone. He's not going to just not think about it - his life up to this point has been "who has their blade to my throat THIS TIME when I next close my eyes" - of course he has thought about it.

But to see Duviri in the date, to hear Drifter whisper about the darkest parts of themselves, to think more on the nuances and details of Drfiter's power, that part of his brain would fall into it again. Particularly because, in theory, at any moment the Indifference could simply take over, or assert control, or subvert senses and make them think other things, or forget. So then what happens there?

Roathe does not believe that the Man in the Wall is a god. But he could accidentally think himself into a circle where he DOES think that Drifter is.

And THAT is something I want to see. The Protoframes all coming together to fight, and battle, and in the process come to love and adore their friend and saviour the Drifter. And as they watch just what Drifter can do, find out the wild things that have happened, and see the legendary and insane things that are possible, it's very real that they could unintentionally create a god from the Drifter, or influence Drifter's own Conceptual Embodiment of themselves.

i think Roathe would be the one to mention it. To ask a question that opens the doors up. And one of the convos that makes me think this is a conversation you have where you can tell him your feelings. He'll start a game of "let me guess" and starts throwing out suggestions, guessing wild and silly things, but one of them is "You are actually the Man in the Wall", and it had me thinking that it's not impossible for it to be the case.

Perhaps there was another universe in which Drifter was never saved, went to Duviri, and completely lost to the apathy. And the Void is a place without time, and full of infinite potential. When Duviri is lost, and there is no tether to reality, what then is the Drifter?

Perhaps Wally is the indifference of the Drifter made manifest, or an alternate version, and this is why WE specifically are interesting enough to make a deal with - to ensure that Wally DOES exist by making the reality of it possible.

It also raises the question again of how imperative Duviri is to the survival of the Drifter. Drifter's power, the time looping specifically, is because of Duviri, or so it's suggested. What if it's not really, what if Duviri is just an extension of the Drifter, allowing them access to the Void through it at all times. An anchor of sorts, a vector by which it can be done without overwhelming.

Could Drifter die if Duviri is destroyed? Just BANG, gone, drops dead immediately, as Duviri is obliterated.

Going back to the point that Roathe would bring it up though - this would possibly make Drifter think about it. And if they ponder it hard enough, they could in theory change themselves through Conceptual Embodiment to start reflecting things, maybe unlock power they didn't know they had. Or maybe step closer to becoming something else.

I need to stop because I'm never going to shut up at this rate haha

[space-trashlordd]

Alright so the other day I replied to something and it has been in my little skullbean every since. I intentionally spread misinformation on the internet (joking), because I am in fact NOT NORMAL ABOUT ANYTHING ABOUT THE PROTOFRAMES PLEASE ALLOW ME TO EXPLAIN IN MY VERY UNHINGED ESSAY BELOW

SO, first and foremost - the game has limitations as a direct result of the engine, best practices for making a game, etc, etc, so we're going to ignore the nature of the game's visual nature as a result. It shall be our baseline to work with, to give you an idea, it is not law. If you have a problem with this, please move on.

I believe that the Infestation wouldn't necessarily TAKE that much from the human form. Yes, it would absolutely have to take some things, whether because it's more efficient to remove it, or it needs to modify something due to the nature of the variant of the Helminth strain that the 'frame is, but overall I believe that Warframes (and subsequently Protoframes) would be LARGER than they had been before infection.

Scientifically speaking (great joke, given space magic exists, I know, but there are still laws of physics and the like to enjoy), it makes limited sense for the 'frames to be the shape and size of normal people, and have the amazing strength that they do have. Thusly, I'd suggest that the sword-steel/Infested muscle/bone/etc is siGNIFICANTLY more dense than normal. To them, they probably feel fine, stronger than before really. But to us? They can't step on glass without it shattering under their immense weight - the same goes for ice. Frames like Rhino that are literally just bulk and weight probably leave crunched sections of cement, bent metal, broken ground from underneath them as they throw themselves into a bullet jump. When they go to sit on things, they do it slooooowly. Carefully. Testing the furniture for being able to take their weight.

I think Protoframes aren't as egregiously heavy as a full Warframe, but the larger they are, the more it's felt as a direct result of just being bulkier.

I think that Warframes are purpose built to be in certain ways. Ballas wouldn't have wanted them to just look normal - they were meant to be terrifying. They were meant to be perfect soldiers. Inordinately better than the common man could ever dream of achieving.

Some frames, stealth frames, are slender. Built for slipping in and out unseen. Meant for assassination, and designed to be as light and impossible to detect as can be. They probably are physically lighter, but as one would expect, they'd be less suited for direct battle. Not incapable, but just not optimised for it. This makes SENSE for frames who have invisibility. Who are meant to abuse the fact they're fast, and nimble, and able to get around without being noticed. What they lack in sheer force and tankiness, they can still make up for with alternate options.

Frames that are designed purely for battle, in a "hyper carry" sort of fashion, are typically middle of the range between stealth and tank, what one would expect a super solider to look like in so many respects, and then some because these things do. not. stop. They don't tire, and they bring down vast destructive ability, and don't need tactics, or tankiness, because they've killed everything that so much as took a breath within a 14km radius of them. They don't need tactics, or ability to take a hit, because they just nuke it all and say "job's done, boss".

Tanky frames are just absolute UNITS. They're built to be aggressively in people's faces. LOOK AT ME. SHOOT ME. I DARE YOU. And of COURSE the enemy does exactly that, because this tank is running them down, and doing everything in their power to harass and draw the attention of that enemy. Maybe, just maybe, with enough firepower, you can take that big asshole down, they think. You would be wrong. Because they are designed to do that. And then ask for a second round of bullets, my compliments to the chef for that delicious meal of lead.

Some frames fall between each of these spaces, and subsequently have their own levels of which direction they fall into, and how they do, but I feel like it's a general kinda vibe, and that Warframes are just BIG no matter what. It's just that they come in "oh that's a tall person", to "oh shit they're huge", to "holY FUCK THEY'RE MASSIVE, WHAT DID THEY FEED YOU?!".

NOW ONTO MY EXTRA FAVOURITE PART

HOW THIS IMPACTS PROTOFRAMES.

They're bigger. They have to sort out their limbs being bigger than they expected. A couple doorframes to the skull to remind them to duck now. Being unable to get into the spaces that they could have MAYBE squeezed into before.

Teeth. That do not. Stop. Growing. Sharpened steel that can pierce through anything and slash it to bits, and they don't care that your face is there, move it.

The Hex have a storage room that no one talks about. It's got boxes of files. The files are all kept meticulously, there is a box of used files that Aoi is allowed to futs with to try and recoup as much of the metal as possible for more files. Inventory is kept, and no one questions anyone about any of it.

The files are used for nails, teeth, bits of steel that just keep growing out that are uncomfortable, and need to not be there please. Anything else that might be a personal issue as a result of infection.

In La Cathedral, Roathe has to also use one on his tail, or it starts getting unwieldy as the blade gets larger and larger and heavier. He can be convinced to buff it, which he likes then using the bright, sparkly edge to try and shine light into Marie/Lyon's eye(s) when bored, and possibly use it to see things in it's reflection.

Eleanor has specific knives that no one. No one. gets to touch. They're the "Frondy Bits" knives. They are particularly good for dealing with the Frondy Bits of her tongue. A Nidus Protoframe would undoubtedly partake of these knives also. Neither of them would take a Kullervo Protoframe up on the offer for his knives, as it'd just be weird.

I want more of the horror associated with it. The horror in game, besides having your body change on you in ways that's irreconcilable, and out of your control, is terrible, do not think I'm disregarding that.

But I want it to be clear just how much this has changed them. How they're NOT human anymore, not really, and it's a fact of life that they have to do things differently.

I'm very normal and have a lot of normal thoughts about them (I'm tired and can't write more rn, but lemme know if you have anything you wanna talk about here, or if I should continue).

[roatheposter]

DE are cowards for not letting us spam kiss the devil's triad. But more importantly I want my Drifter to dip and kiss Roathe all over his stupid face. Is that too much to ask????

[janusfnc14]

Clearly this is because Loid has set up a Kiss Allowance. <- because otherwise Drifter would be going at it sloppy style and Loid does NOT want to see that at 3am in the morning

Alternatively it’s because our Smooches are Too Powerful and have to be spaced out for the safety of our SOs

[roatheposter]

counterpoint: infinite kisses = infinite power, so let us kiss the SOs

[space-trashlordd]

the power of love beats the man in the wall, so in this essay, I will go into detail about why my Drifter should be allowed to make out sloppy style (at least) at all hours of the day with their SO(s) to ensure that the man in the wall loses the fight like a great big dweeb while also being able to express their unending love and adoration for their partner(s)-

[space-trashlordd]

Roathe is, canonically, a ragebaiter. He does it because he likes to get reactions from people, especially if he gets to annoy someone, probably because he likes attention and he's real for that.

Hear me out... A Drifter who is sarcastic, sassy, matches his freak in a lot of ways (is worse actually, he doesn't know what he's gotten into), who allows him to try and ragebait them. Doesn't fall for it, just politely helps him and is nice and oh look he's fallen irrevocably in love with them.

And one day, the world is just being annoying, and he's going to set it all on fire- except that when he gets that bad, he and Drifter sort it out. Whether by sparring, or a run in Descendia, some sort of mission in which nightmarish amounts of homicide occurs, or unhinged amounts of sex (he has expressed a preference especially for that last one), it doesn't matter just pick one - the conscripts bring a very confused and amused Drifter to him, and they get freaky with it, all the stress and anger seeping out through rough possessive bitey perfect sex.

And Drifter, ever the shit-stirrer, the true ragebait royal, looks Roathe dead in the eyes and says "Now fuck me like you mean it", eyes twinkling with mirth because he's going to be worse now.

This is how Roathe begins to learn he is in fact not the most annoying of the group, Drifter is, but it's especially cute when they do it.

[keladethaym]

i think it's beautiful roathe admits to trying to ragebait you, and yet much of the player base was still successfully ragebaited. DE really knows what buttons to press to get y'all going huh
