Sorry. My Advent gift, on this 7th day of December in Fallen London, was to come downstairs after hearing a ruckus in my lodgings to find that someone had left this in the middle of my floor.
That. That is a rat, a master thief rat, who has been turned into a candle. A hand of glory candle. And not ... not by other rats? If the rats are disguising their agents as them, that sounds like the true objects (corpses?) themselves are not being made willingly by rats.
And. If you click on the thing in your inventory. You have some options. One of which is to light the candle. Which has two potential results. A) it gives you seven items that will give you a lot of money, or b) it will set the poor disguised rat on fire, waking it up and making it very pissed off. Which, honestly? Extremely fair.
(Yes, I know this is obviously a risk they're taking by disguising themselves as candles in the first place, but still. Waking up because some bastard has set fire to what they thought was the corpse of one of your own, and which is actually you, would not incline you to be friendly regardless, and that's entirely fair).
The other option you have is to give it back to the rats. Which. Whether it's a sleeper agent or a poor dead rat that's been made into a candle, either way feels like the honest thing to do. So that's what I did. Because the fuck?
I don't know why this struck me when this is a universe where you can, with effort, turn yourself into a candle (Hi Sunless Sea), and it's actually pretty cool. Horrifying, but cool. But still. Yes, I'm giving the poor desecrated rat back to their people. Great Salt.
hello tumblr dot com. welcome to my sinister trial. this is shamelessly stolen from inspired by @herearedragons and @rainrein's bingos. you can blame them for everything.
funnily enough caeru doesnt get a single bingo on this board. truly a tragic day for us all
carter is hopelessly romantic lol she would not degrade his (nonexistent, she has negative rizz) partner. also pathetic failzailor who falls off docks on the regular would not be able to pick them up like a princess without tripping on air and eating shit.
also to explain the had a crush on candles: pyro met him in a dream once, long before it became what it is. that dream is one of the only positive memories it has left of Before. it does not know candles is eaten, just that they are related somehow. still thinks the masters are cute (except fires cuz it smells bad)
ok. fine. you got me. i wasn't gonna do it at first but you've forced my hand. may your hubris be your end, etc etc.
who's your oc getting into a situationship with
ace
serenity
melita
vanilla extract/nuance/im bald/etc
Voting ended onOct 3, 2025
propaganda below cut:
ace: literally God's most free situationship. show up to her bar as a consenting adult and there's like a 75% chance you leave with a situationship completely free of monetary charge. you may receive an invoice for a pint of blood tho. also, free Conceptual Boyfriend! Who could say no to such a deal? as for like. what her actual deal is. she’s a correspondent and the proprietress of a tavern/bar/honey den/inn! she might be a weird love-vampire too but surely you can overlook a little bit of missing blood for the best night of your life, right?
In terms of personality she’s a good listener and likes to indulge in every fine thing she can get her hands on. She used to be big on prisoner’s honey but got more into oneiropomping instead once she figured out how to actually get into parabola. She’s the kind of person who everyone loves because she makes everyone feel special at once when you talk to her. but if you were to get into a situationship with her you’d have to deal with the knowledge that while she —of course— makes time for you, you’d always be second to her husband.
serenity: on the other hand a situationship with serenity is probably the most distilled "Situation" out of the three of them. They are self-loathing, self-denying, and self-conscious all at the same time. Any attempt to pursue a relationship with him will end up with serenity casting at least one of you (themself included) into the zee.
they’re a really fucking weird monster hunter. their eyes are definitely not peligin, weirdly enough. he’s a solid workaholic and will NOT communicate ANYTHING to you at all. but if you get hurt he’ll patch you up in the most sexually charged surgery of your life and then proceed to maul whatever/whoever hurt you with extreme efficacy. Keeps all of their emotions pretty bottled up and tries to ignore their feelings by working more. they’ll claim that you’ve never been in any sort of non-platonic relationship at all whatsoever, despite any evidence to the contrary. But hey. you’ll get some nice zee voyages and probably some nice scars out of spending time with them.
melita: ironically a situationship with the woman made out of bees is the most normal relationship here. and that's saying something. she's kind of non-committal, like she might just vanish one day and you'll have no idea where she went until she seats herself at your table outside a cafe and suddenly a throng of constables passes by and she smiles devilishly at you and asks how you've been. and then she'd regale you with all the tales of where she's gone and what she's stolen and all the adventures she's had. and thus the situationship bites its own tail.
as mentioned melita is made partially out of bees :) this makes romance a Little Weird. But you’ll dance together (she’s VERY good at it) and then drink hard liquor on the rooftops of london, watching the bazaar’s sigils glitter like stars. You might do a few heists together. She’ll actually trust you, maybe. She doesn’t trust easily, but you can earn her trust, and it’s a very good feeling. When she is around, she’s reliable, and she keeps her promises. Headstrong and dangerous and daring, she will get you guys into trouble for no particular reason other than her own amusement. Additionally, she’s an eye for everything that sparkles, and her touch is the perfect warmth no matter when.
also. if you comment/reblog with reasons you will make my day.
i think some people may already have seen it by now but behold. the fallen london corner in wplace.live with my ebwarb :D
i designed the mask and spent quite a while setting pixels. shoutout to discord peeps who helped me with the colours <3 i helped a little with the logo and did the smen candles too bc the "BAN =C" beside it reminded me of eaten LMAO
theres been so much more added since i last checked. dont know who made the hat or bee though but it looks so cute i wuv them.
also did this tiny eddie first, much simpler. hes right next to wally and he _ loona
yes i quite like this kinda silly game why do u ask
as a bonus here are the eddies i made before trying to set him on the map
bonus yap bc who knows when ill next have an opportunity like this LMAO:
-> rei was super subby & naive on their first year of inexperienced life (which wasnt always good or healthy for them tbh - they saw their body as a tool and that didn't help) so the contrast between this and that is rly funny to me
-> very libertine & open to having some casual fun with people they click with. luckily for edward they're a mono loser when it comes to feelies. he might get cucked but he'll always be number one bc there's no competition
-> their brat potential is off the damn charts simply bc theyre a little shit. the thing is that if they start bratting they tend to win, which is satisfying but defeats the point of bratting
-> since they have no actual experience having parents or any parental figure of any sort. they are immune to squick/cringe when it comes to incestuous bs. it doesnt get them going specifically but sure theyll be mommy/daddy or whatever. the other role is kinda really boring though
-> i think even now they experience a lot of like. people projecting things on them which warped them up a bit. theyre personally a taker but they also paradoxically like to please so they adapt to people's wants really quickly (see point above)
this oc was supposed to be a joke but it kinda got out of hand.
Mr Baits is the Master of the Bazaar in charge of Unterzee fishing, fishing supplies, and boats. It functions somewhere between a game warden and a mafia boss. It is elderly but more spry than it looks, and it can often be found performing spot checks on fishing boats to make sure that all fish are of proper size and all supplies were purchased legally (from Baits!). Most Londoners struggle to to take it seriously for obvious reasons, but if you had to choose a Master to hang out with, Baits is certainly one of the more pleasant ones. It is cordial but not very talkative unless you would like to hear about fish.
I've got a short story that's nearly ready, it only needed a couple more edits before it would be worth something. I needed to login and head to Veilgarden. Only for me to wake to fucking THIS
So obviously now I gotta figure out what's going on. My entire week? Gone! This is my week now. Dr. Axor has been here canonically for 7 months and knows how the street looked.
characters who are undead. characters who die in the end and so they've been dead from the start. characters who are chased by death. characters that chase death. characters who died and came back to life. characters that die again and again and again. characters who consider their past self dead. characters who were born in someone else's corpse. characters that claw their way out of the grave. characters whose deaths leave such a gaping wound that even their absence is still a presence. characters who are emissaries of death. characters who are alive but consider themselves dead. characters whose deaths are ambiguous. characters whose existences are defined by death.
Can anyone who's been playing for a long while and has really crazy stats or accomplishments (across any fallen london game) send me screenshots of them? I need them for a funny video
