i see them too. you're just as sane as i am. 

for @gravityautumns. happy birthday, my dear old friend.

[derrickperegrine]

🍂🌸 congrats on 750 bud!! if you need more info about me, i'm working on becoming a veterinarian right now so i've been working with small and exotic animals! i get bit by birds a lot lmao

cahey angela!! thanks man 💫 that’s so cool?? getting bit sucks i guess but at least birds are cute!!!

also, going to give you mahoutokoro because literally everyone and their mother is asking for ilvermorny lmao

best classes:

care of magical souls: class concerning the care of various yōkai, yūrei, and bakemono. once common creatures in japan, muggle monster hunters and wizarding aurors have decimated the population of many of these creatures, and now the japanese wizarding government is trying to promote courses relating to the conservation of these beings

fox transfiguration: somewhat similar to metamorphmagus magic, but more temporary. taught exclusively by the kitsune professors at mahoutokoro

seal-summoning: this course teaches students to draw seals onto a variety of surfaces with their wands, in order to summon magical beings and deities for assistance

worst classes:

character arithmancy: a branch of arithmancy that channels spells and predictions through the shapes and sounds of the japanese numerical characters. depending on how you read them, the effect/result is different

omikuji writing: divination course designed to teach students how to write fortunes

elective courses:

medical alchemy: concerns alchemising potions and poultices to treat a variety of serious ailments, as well as improve one’s wellbeing and longevity

daredevil flying: if there is something japan is proud of, it is the technique and ability of all their wizards on a broom. there’s a reason why japanese quidditch is unparalleled in the world

extracurricular activities:

quidditch: this one is self-explanatory

kujira surfing: a type of surfing in which the surfer rides the waves on the back of a whale

additional duties:

quidditch captain: this one is self-explanatory

hatcher at the mahoutokoro owlery: looks after the birds, takes care of the eggs, and maintains the cleanliness and order of the owlery. a more difficult job than people expect, since the mahoutokoro owlery houses birds other than owls (such as eagles, cranes, etc.) as well

favourite haunts:

tsubakijima shrine: the school shrine, suspended over the sea. home to wild but docile deer as well as rabbits

the mahoutokoro lagoon: a black-sand lagoon where students like to relax, swim, fish, and gather shellfish. great place to watch the sunset after classes

pet: daubenton’s batshort drabble:

deeply embedded in each brick, whorled into each log, and forged into each support of mahoutokoro, is life. the place teems with it; the air feels lush and heavy even though everything is still, and the school always seems abuzz with something even when it is at its quietest. you raise your hand in the wind, and you can feel the ever-changing shapes of mahoutokoro slip against your fingers, the tingling sensation of its magic rub against your skin.

mahoutokoro is a place of respect; and most of all, the magic of life is respected. existence is short and brilliant, like the brilliant blaze of spring. therefore, one should treasure and protect all aspects of it, and honour this gift for what it is. magic isn’t a status, a power, or a right – it’s a safeguard, a privilege, a duty. when life presents you with a gift, you must return its generosity in kind.

as you listen to the sea crash against the shore, the water carries into your ear the motto of the school: 人を呪わば穴二つ。to curse another is to dig a second grave for yourself. you grip your wand tightly within you hand, and you can hear the soft sigh of blooming flowers, the crisp flapping of a magpie’s wings, the rustling of foxes within your ears. you let that be your guide.

you are a curse onto those who step on the small ones and who abuse their power. you are a curse onto the proud and the cruel. you are a curse onto the ungrateful and uncaring. you do not care if you damn yourself – you are willing to suffer if it means you can do some good in the world.

song: any by 9goats black out

Bellerophon B,E,L for the OC alphabet asks!

B: Basics1. what is their hair color?

Black.

2. what is their eye color?

Purple, like most demons.

3. how tall are they?

He’s 5′9.

4. how old are they?

He’s 19.

5. how much do they weigh?

About 170 pounds, early on. He’s fairly lanky, but he builds some muscle after joining Lilith’s ranks and becoming her lieutenant.

E: External Personality1. does the way they do things portray their internal personality?

Sort of. He’s very cocksure of himself externally, but the fact that he defers to Lilith on literally everything shows that he tends to think he’s more lost in life than he’d like to admit.

2. do they do things that conform to the norm?

Oh hell no. He’s a damn revolutionary, his entire job is to destroy the people that conscripted him into their army.

3. do they follow trends or do their own thing?

A bit of both? He follow’s Lilith’s orders, but tends to take liberties in how he carries out those orders.

I should also point out that a bunch of Lilith’s rank and file use chains as weapons because he made that his thing and made it look damn terrifying

4. are they up-to-date on the internet fads?

Seeing as how there’s no internet in his world...no.

5. do they portray their personality intentionally or let people figure it out on their own?

He tends to portray himself as really cocky, which is half his actual personality and half him deliberately trying to overplay himself to other people so that they don’t take him seriously.

If he’s not being a cocky sonofabitch, you’ve either impressed him, actually beaten him, or pissed him the hell off

L: Lemons1. what is their favorite fruit?

He likes grapes.

2. what is their least favorite fruit?

He dislikes limes. Thinks they’re trying too hard to be lemons when they aren’t, and the result is a cheap knockoff.

3. are there any foods they hate?

He dislikes salad. Thinks its not good for anything but feeding livestock.

4. do they have any food intolerances?

He does not.

5. what is their favorite food?

Venison. He’s had it all of twice, but it’s still his favorite thing he’s ever had.

[the-backspin-alchemist]

🔀 (let's pretend that's an infinity sign lmao)

Lmao what are you talking about that’s TOTALLY an infinity symbol. >;P

Halo Effect - Rush

What did I see, fool that I was? Oh, A goddess with wings on her heels.

All my illusions, projected on her, the ideal that I wanted to see.

Not gonna lie, this song still hits a little too close to home sometimes. Reminds me of times I’m not proud of.

Still a damn good song from a damn good album created by a damn good band, though.

[the-backspin-alchemist]

Bellerophon! They sound cool 😀

Whoops, completely missed this! (Thanks, Tumblr Mobile, for STILL not having a proper inbox!)

Anyways, Bellerophon’s...well, lemme just answer these first and let you see if you’re still gonna make that judgement.

Full Name: Bellerophon. (Yes, he’s just Bellerophon)Gender and Sexuality: Male and ????? (probably ace? I just default to assuming most of my characters are ace at this point.)Pronouns: He/himEthnicity/Species: He WAS human, but is currently a demon at this point in time.Birthplace and Birthdate: He was born in the winter, and was born in the AcropolisGuilty Pleasures: Sweet foods. Phobias: Legion. He’s terrified of Legion. And for good reason.What They Would Be Famous For: Being a war hero during the Schism.What They Would Get Arrested For: Beating a perceived spy within an inch of his life.OC You Ship Them With: He hasn’t been paired with anyone yet. There’s a small possibility he ends up with Artemis? Maybe? But probably not.OC Most Likely To Murder Them: Draco.Favorite Movie/Book Genre: He likes old the legends of the wanderer-lords from the olden ages.Least Favorite Movie/Book Cliche: Dislikes gritty war stuff. Hits too close to home for him.Talents and/or Powers: Flight (since he has wings), is a pretty good swordsman, can conjure demonfire, and is one of the few people able to fight sufficiently with a chain. (Also he can sing but he doesn’t want anyone to know this.)Why Someone Might Love Them: He tries really hard to come off as a badass, which when he succeeds is really cool and when it fails is really funny.Why Someone Might Hate Them: He tries all the time to come off as a badass, which can make him seem annoying to the wrong people (he manages to start off on Martin’s bad side because of this)How They Change: He learns to kinda just...be himself, instead of trying to force the whole badass-dude front, and ends up becoming a leader in his own right.Why You Love Them: For the first half of the storyline he’s literally there for Lilith to sic on people she doesn’t like and it amuses me.
