I Need the fantasy people to stop comping literally any book that's vaguely woodlandsy cozy fantasy to studio ghibli. we need to stop letting studio ghibli be shorthand for generic cutesy fantasy when that is quite literally Not what they make!! on a similar note stop comparing things to studio ghibli when you just mean kiki's delivery service or howls moving castle. they have made more than 2 movies we can be a little more specific what does your book about witches living in a countryside village have to do with princess mononoke
wow guess who’s making another shitty 3h modern au
(it’s me)
so this one’s a mafia au based off some cool art ive seen floating around
in this au Edelgard is the boss’s daughter of the Adrestia Syndicate, the biggest criminal empire in Fodlan that’s been around for generations, Dimitri is next in line to lead the Faerghus Brotherhood, another major gang that’s the biggest rival to the Adrestia Syndicate, and Claude is an investigator and grandson to the leader of the Leicester Alliance, an underground intel network for the mob and smaller gangs.
(route spoilers under the cut)
For a long time the Adrestia Syndicate and the Faerghus Brotherhood had constantly been at war with one another, the Leicester Alliance was able to help them broker a delicate peace treaty between the two families, effectively separating their business. Since then there had been minimal conflict for the families, until one day, Lambert Blaiddyd, the leader of the Faerghus Brotherhood was brutally attacked and killed along with his wife and closest guards. While the incident was immediately pinned on the smaller gang of Duscur and subsequently massacred, Dimitri, Faerghus’s lone survivor of the head family, secretly believes the true perpetrators being the Adrestia Syndicate.
Fast forward 7 years and Edelgard, Dimitri, and Claude, heirs to the Adrestia Syndicate, Faerghus Brotherhood, and Leicestar Alliance respectively, are students at Garreg Mach, mostly a front school in the shadier part of town for the mob kids and gangsters to learn the tools of the trade. As part of the peace treaty, Garreg Mach is divided into three houses, separating students from the syndicate, brotherhood, and alliance.
While at the academy, Edelgard secretly is plans to do away with the peace treaty and declare war on the mob as a whole, intending to change organized crime at its core. Meanwhile Dimitri continues to plan his revenge on the Adrestia Syndicate and put an end to the unnecessary killing. At the same time, Claude hopes to use the Alliance to open the borders between families in Fodlan and outside the country.
so far ive dived pretty deep into this au and will probs follow up with house profiles
don't take reviews personally don't take reviews personally don't take reviews personally art is subjective and people like different things and that's okay people can like different things and that's okay
been feeling some kind of revisited nostalgia about homestuck lately. not entirely sure what triggered this in 2026 specifically but I've been feeling a lot more affectionate towards it. maybe it's something to do with forgiving and loving my 13 y/o self? who knows
