day 34: STAND PROUD!
Sigh...
Eleven insisted I use this app to socialize more. She says it's bad for me to "constantly angst over a fallen Monarch" and that I should reconnect with my fellow commonbugs, or something to that effect. I don't understand how she isn't upset by the loss of our Monarch to the void below all things, but no matter.
I am Grand Reed Seventeen of Forty, eternal voice of the Citadel of Song and current leader of the Grand Reeds in the absence of our Monarch. You may call me Grand Reed Seventeen if you are short on time, or simply Seventeen if you are shorter.
...I know not what else to say. I suppose I shall figure this out as I progress.
"What a delight to have you visit! It is oh so lonely here."
Looks like you've encountered Lace on your travels! Feel free to converse with her and see what she has to say—she may surprise you!
This blog is run by @diablo-sera-tops! There's no schedule here, I just post whenever I feel like it.
Tag Guide:
#the mind wanders: General posts.
#bugs of pharloom: Interactions with other blogs.
#the silken knight appears: Images.
#lovely gifts: Things you guys make!
#mod blaze: OOC posts.
#ripping the seams: Past story arc!
#mending the torn: Conclusion to Ripping the Seams!
#yours is life: Posts where Lace gets emotional.
#a most unusual guest: Posts about Ruffle, the bugaboo Capy sent!

Rules:
Hateful asks will not be tolerated, period.
This blog will contain spoilers for the entirety of Silksong's base game, and asks regarding spoilers are allowed. However, any spoilers for content updates (such as Sea of Sorrow) will not be allowed for the foreseeable future.
No explicit NSFW. There may be suggestive or mildly NSFW posts featured, but they will be tagged appropriately and only used for humorous purposes. Do not the Lace.
Asks about ships/romantic relations are okay, as long as they're not serious. We're just here to be silly!
Related to the above bullet point: Lacenet is canon to this blog, but only sometimes. Usually when it's funny. Or when @child-of-weaver-and-wyrm and I both feel like it (which is usually bc it's funny).
Memes, sprite edits, and drawings may be used in response to asks, but they're not guaranteed.
Other RP blogs are more than welcome to interact!
Lace, as portrayed on this blog, is an adult. Asks debating this, infantilizing her, discussing the age debate, or that are hateful in anyway will not be tolerated.
Phantom is often mentioned here. If you wish to reference them, keep in mind that Phantom uses they/them, and they are referred to as "sibling." Asks debating this, misgendering them, discussing the gender debate, or that are hateful in anyway will not be tolerated.
Don't try to insert lore or start a story with Lace without talking to me about it first. Again, we're being silly with it, so nothing too serious! (Edit to clarify that when I say "lore," I typically mean continuity that requires the blog to take itself seriously.)
Additionally, don't try to involve Lace in events or stories I didn't explicitly agree to participate in. This rule explains itself.
A Masterlist of Soulblood AUs and Plotlines
I've got so many of these at this point that I figured I should start archiving them and the tags I'll be using for them from this point on. I'll go back and edit tags on the old posts too, for consistency's sake!
Also, I haven't posted about most of these AUs yet, but rest assured they exist. I wanna wait until I have a bit more material to post about them, but asks about any and all AUs and plotlines are more than welcome!
AUs
Soulblood: The main AU that all other AUs build off.
Fervortale: Soulblood post-canon AU where Lace searches for a missing Hornet and finds herself caught in the happenings of the far-off kingdom of Librevale.
Bugaboo: Soulblood post-canon AU where Hornet accidentally manifests a copy of Lace's childhood self into reality via a combination of dream and memory magic. Inspired by @creativecapybara's Bugaboos!
Silken Ascension: Soulblood post-canon AU where the last of the Choir kidnaps Lace with the intent to make her their new goddess.
Throne of the Beast: Alternate version of Silken Ascension where Phantom is kidnapped instead of Lace.
Silksong - Cloverheart Edition: OC-focused AU where Hornet never gets brought to Pharloom, so Hiza makes the journey to Pharloom's crown.
FABLE (From A Bygone Land Eternal): Soulblood modern AU where Hornet explores the ruins of the Citadel, the last standing structure of ancient Pharloom, and accidentally awakens Lace, who was sleeping there for thousands of years and lost her memories while endlessly dreaming.
Organ Spectres: Soulblood AU where all the Organ Sleepers are alive and reside in the Exhaust Organ alongside Phantom. They've started a band!
Union of the Gods: Soulblood AU that combines aspects of Silken Ascension with an arranged marriage story. Grand Mother Silk is dying, and the Choir needs to crown Lace as the new mother-goddess before it's too late.
OSAS (Of Spiders and Serpents): Soulblood gijinka AU. Plot is mostly the same as Soulblood, but the events of Silken Ascension are canon.
Hungersong: OSAS/DST AU where Ghost, Hornet, Lace, and Phantom find themselves in the Constant somehow. As of right now, this AU is purely for fun, but we'll see how long that lasts LOL
Tight Lips: OSAS modern AU where a young Lace and Phantom escape their abusive home life and start anew in a far-off city, all while keeping the fact they're half-spider creatures made of silk a closely-guarded secret. Shared with @crazysnor1ax!
Kaleidoscope: OSAS KPop Demon Hunters AU. Shared with @crazysnor1ax!
Pokemon Silk and Soul: Gijinka AU set in the world of Pokemon. Not quite an OSAS AU, but has OSAS elements. Shared with @crazysnor1ax and @the-valiant-valkyrie!
Plotlines
Eternal Kingdom: The entirety of Soulblood's Hollow Knight arc. Also applies to OSAS.
Pharloom's Welcome: Act 1 of Soulblood's Silksong arc. Also applies to OSAS.
Citadel of Song: Act 2 of Soulblood's Silksong arc. Also applies to OSAS.
Dark Descent: Act 3 of Soulblood's Silksong arc. Also applies to OSAS.
Coronation Day: The variation of Silken Ascension that takes place in OSAS.
Heartsong: OC-focused plotline focusing on Hiza's search for Verdania as it happens in canon Soulblood and OSAS.
Ballad of a Burning Spear: OC-focused plotline focusing on Pyra's escape from the Wisp Thicket and the bond she develops with Kyrie, a Spear-Skarr.
Threadling: Lace and Phantom's lives before the Haunting.
All Our Wounds Can Heal: The unique traumas of several characters, and how they learn to persist despite them.
"For the first time in forever, I actually feel like myself. And I don't think I would without you guys."
(alt and mini ramble under the cut)
"Care to stay a while? Don't worry, we don't bite!"
Pyra and Kyrie have finally arrived on Pharloomblr! These two bugs may seem strange because they are, but they're eager to join the fun! (Be cautious with your flammable goods.)

Don't try to insert lore or start a story with asks. Again, we're being silly with it, so nothing too serious! (Edit to clarify that when I say "lore," I typically mean continuity that requires the blog to take itself seriously. As long as everyone involved is having fun, this rule is flexible.)
Start date announcement!! ✨✨
Hello, all! Thank you so much for being invested and following the spotlight’s start so far! We wanted to give you a quick update: we will be starting our first official spotlight in March!
We’ll be taking some breaks during holiday seasons for everyone to spend time with family, but come new year and you can begin showering the first spotlighted fankid with love! Thank you for your patience and we can’t wait to see you there <3

To all residents of the Counties:
The Nowhere Division is proud to announce that as of today, we have successfully found two missing children, and have possible confirmation of a third.
The missing children were discovered alongside several other entities at the abandoned psychiatric institute near our station. Currently, all rescued entities, including both rescued children, are in the custody of the Nowhere Division in order to ensure they can safely re-adjust to normal life.
To the parents of the rescued children, we ask that you are patient and understanding with both us and them. They have been somewhere far away for a very long time, and in that time, much about them has changed. We are working to help the children recover from their frightening experiences and adjust to these changes as much as possible, but it will likely be a long process.
Additionally, do not be alarmed at the other entities. They have proven to be peaceful unless provoked.
Thank you for all of your support, and we hope your day goes well.
-- Dr. Elaine Henderson, Head of the Nowhere Division
