I'm still on Sub Vox supremacy so here are some simple things your muses can (and should) do to Vox that would fluster him and generally make him swoon for them:

Any sort of praise. It doesn't have to be suggestive, call him clever and he'll be a little giddy from it, but call him good and he'll melt.

Play with his antenna. Not a euphemism XD they are sensitive, it can get him riled up depending on how it's done, or it can do the opposite and relax him.

Any sort of fleeting touch as they walk past him - so long as it's intentional - will have all of his focus on them immediately.

Using his name. Nicknames and pet names are all well and good but say his name with any level of affection and he's gone.

Literally just take him by the hand and lead him somewhere. No talking required.

the thing that sucks about this quality/story is that your only option after you reach three is... blackmail.

is that the only thing you can do with highly sensitive information? not even discussing it?

Lesbian shirodate headcanons. Raunchy stuff later of course

+ anonymous asked: Nobody’s asked for Yuri! Shirodate? Preposterous. Must I do everything myself.

[ ♡ / ♢ ] fem!Idate x fem!Shirogane HCs.

♦ Shirogane’s hair is thick and often unruly, so it feels nice to run one’s fingers through it - Idate especially - who takes the opportunity to do so whenever she’s in a good mood. In rare cases, she likes to brush and braid her hair as well.

“Seriously? You’re still scared even now when I’m not trying to eat you? You really are pathetic, wolfy.”

Shirogane stammers out some pathetic excuse, trying not to anger or upset Idate in any way, “N-No, I’m not scared! I’m j-just shaking because, uh… y-your hands feel nice when they’re combing my hair?”

Idate hums in thought, “That so, wolfy?”

She’ll will abruptly yank Shirogane’s hair backwards as the wolf yelps and she’s facing up and looking at Idate’s grinning face.

“How about now?”

Shirogane swallows the painful lump in her throat, trying to come up with something coherent, but the words become a tangled mess on her tongue. Idate laughs innocently and lets go of her hair, positioning her head the way it was before and her hands become more gentle again.

“Oh, I’m just teasing, darling… seriously though, grow a spine, would you?”

Shirogane sits still through the rest of it, hear hammering in chest as Idate unties the knots in her hair and keeps re-braiding it with a gentle hum.

♦ Idate will casually flirt with Shirogane when she’s bored and has no one else around to bug. The latter often can’t tell if they’re meant as genuine compliments, just mockery, or if she was luring her into false sense of comfort before an impending, violent attack - Idate’s unpredictability and volatile nature made it hard to tell.

One of such times was when Shirogane was out fishing nearby the edge of the ocean and the orca would discreetly and slowly swim towards the wolf. She makes her presence known by coming to surface of the water and scaring Shirogane with a “boo.” causing the wolf to jump backwards and the fishing rod to fall from her grip.

“I-I-idate?!” Shirogane stutters as she tries to back away slowly just in case, praying that a limb of hers won’t be torn off again, “W-What i-is it?”

Idate doesn’t respond immediately and only gazing at the wolf in awe.

“It’s your eye, wolfy.”

“W-W-What about m-my eye?”

“Why, it’s the most mesmerizing, beautiful color I’ve ever seen. Real shame about the other one, no?”

Shirogane undergoes a struggle between internal screaming and blushing. She’ll end up saying a quick, ‘I really need to go now!’ before scrambling to her feet and running away, not wanting to stick around to see what she’ll do. Idate only sighs at that in slight disappointment, having hoped to get a more entertaining response out of her. Ah, well, perhaps next time.

♦ Idate likes to sneak up behind Shirogane and hug her around the waist, nuzzling into the crook of her neck. Shirogane always freaks out when she does that and tries to struggle out of her hold, but the orca’s arms are strong and is easily able to keep her in her grasp. Most of the time, she’s not even attempting to do anything of malice to her, just casually talk about her day; of a shark she found in the south side of the ocean whom she got into a fight with and nearly ripped apart into bloody chunks.

Eventually Idate will become fed up and harshly grab her chin. With a growl, she’ll sneer at her, “How rude. Hello, I’m trying to talk to you here, so don’t act like such a bitch for once. Stay still and quit your squirming.”

Suffice to say, that seems to work and Shirogane quiets down and Idate continues to hold her and happily chatter like nothing was wrong in the first place.

♦ Idate brings shirogane seashells, pearls, and other oysters from parts of the sea where it’s less cold and has someone make them into necklaces to give them to the wolf, asking her to put it on to show her how it looks. 

Shirogane will always quietly thank Idate for the gift, a million thoughts running for miles, wondering what the gesture is intended to mean. She’s slightly more than just a little terrified at the thought of this being Idate’s form of courtship. She shudders at that. Best not to look inside a gifted horse’s mouth.

I still enjoyed it, but I wish that “Darkness of Dragons” had gone differently.

Spoilers below the break.

 The Sandwings politics plot and Qibli backstory would probably have worked fine in some earlier book, but it felt like an annoying speedbump in the overall plot with it being in Book 10. Book 9 was so thoroughly about Darkstalker and what he was planning and ended on enough of a cliffhanger that I didn’t really care about the stuff going on in the Sandwing kingdom, especially since it was only tangentially related to the main plot. It was interesting enough on its own, but I wanted to get back to the imminent threat to all the dragons, and especially to Turtle and Anemone, with how Book 9 ended.

Granted, it probably would’ve worked better if I’d actually had to sit through a good year between books, and thus wasn’t so hyped up wondering what would happen next in the Darkstalker plot, instead of finishing Book 9 and starting on Book 10 almost immediately.

Also - and I’m sure many others have a similar gripe - the way Darkstalker was defeated just didn’t feel right. The books emphasized time and time again how terrible it is to meddle with someone’s mind, pointing out how Darkstalker’s trouble understanding what’s wrong with it if the person is supposedly “happy” afterwards as being one of the major reasons why him having power is bad, as being one of the reasons dragons are rightfully terrified of him, but then the protagonists not only meddle with his mind, but do so to the extent that Moonwatcher can’t even see a trace of Darkstalker in Peacemaker? Seems like a case of Death of Personality.

Like, shortly before this Darkstalker had kidnapped Vulture, who is a HORRIBLE dragon who, frankly, would not be missed from the world, and one of the ways Darkstalker tries to appeal to Qibli is with the idea that he can make Vulture truly sorry for everything he’s done and change completely into a good dragon by just changing him with his magic. And hell, even before that, he demonstrated his power by changing Vulture’s mind into that of a newborn dragonet, which was the most horrifying thing Qibli had ever seen.

But from what we saw, it seemed like Kinkajou basically DID those things to Darkstalker, both reverting his mind into that of a toddler’s AND changing his self at a fundamental level, considering that Moon couldn’t see any of Darkstalker’s past self in Peacemaker.

I still don’t think I would’ve been fully satisfied with it since it still involves forcibly meddling with a dragon’s mind, which the Jade Mountain Prophecy books keep on emphasizing is a BAD thing to do, but I would’ve preferred it if the reader knew for sure that nothing had been done to Darkstalker’s mind EXCEPT deaging and amnesia. That it was really just a second chance for the dragon, but NOT totally wiping out Darkstalker and replacing him. As things are, it reminds me of the Pyrite enchantment, but permanent.

I'm super glad that the liveshow confirmed my HC that Taako gets a new umbrastaff post canon. It was probably comforting to him — now he knows it's because he always knew Lup was with him.

I like to think he broke down his glaive to meld it into the handle. Magnus probably carved the wood, grown by Merle. The material was woven by Istus. And I like to think that Lup places a sapphire in the handle. She has one that matches, and they light up whenever the other touches it, so they still know that their twin is always with them.

So sick of people complaining that Louboutin red bottoms wear down after one use and rah rah rah, but that’s the whole point, not only does the companies owner want them to wear down—in fact it’s where the whole ‘paint the town red’ saying comes from— but he’s also stated that people who’s shoes don’t look like they’ve been worn don’t deserve to own heels like that
