are you the person who designed the marking Felix got from the god? just wondering who to ask for permission as I would love to get it tattooed one day 🙂↕️
Hey, I did not design this or Felix's last outfit, but it was sort of a group effort so I don't think there's any one specific person to ask permission from. I went looking for a clearer image for you but if there was one, it's gone now.
If you'd like to get a tattoo of it, follow your heart.
I don't want to answer more LL asks because it's been so long since I worked on it and I've moved on, plus I don't want to speak for anyone else. But have one last piece of very old art for the road. Please consider it fanart and unofficial.
artemis x reader, in which you come to their place after barely making sure they're there so you can collapse into their arms after a long day. turns into something more sentimental <3 no content warnings, gn reader, pure fluff. takes place after the events of the game. also you call them "bug" as a nickname! inspired by how tired i am and how much i crave affection
with each step you took, your feet grew heavier and heavier. you were currently dragging yourself to your partner's house, having sent them some quick text messages to let them know you were on your way.
squinting up at their home, glad that it was finally in sight, you allowed yourself to relax. you were going to be in their arms. you were going to have some kind of shitty reality show on in the background, you were going to be in their soft bed, and you were going to melt into their arms.
ringing artemis' doorbell, you were more than relieved to see them behind the door rather then one of their roommates.
before they could even greet you, you dove in to wrap your arms around them.
their eyes widened, arms immediately encircling you. their concern had been growing ever since you sent them those texts, and this only heightened those nerves.
their hand ran up and down your back, doing their best to comfort you. the two of you remained in an embrace, the room filling with silence as artemis worried their lower lip. what could they say?
a few more beats of silence passed before they spoke.
"what's wrong?" their voice came out quiet and gentle, as though if they spoke too loud you would crumble.
your reply was a mere huff as you breathed them in, their distinct scent of vanilla candles and something earthy and warm seeping in.
"... long day," was all you could muster. you knew they would understand. they always did.
you smiled, feeling them press a kiss to the top of your head before wriggling out of your grasp to shut the door. they then took your hand, leading you upstairs to their cozy room. your face warmed, gently squeezing their hand only to receive the same affectionate gesture back.
you were just so glad to finally be able to collapse into your partner's arms. you smiled to yourself as you rested on their lap, face between their shoulder and their neck. every so often you would press little kisses into their neck, never failing to make them giggle. your eyes fell closed and blinked open many times, exhaustion truly catching up to you.
in one of the moments you were barely awake, you felt artemis nuzzle their face into your hair. it sounded as though they opened their mouth to talk before reconsidering and trying again.
quiet words left their mouth, "you deserve so much. so much better, so much goodness." a pause. their hands were now tracing shapes on your back.
"you're so sweet. no one makes me feel like you do. i miss you when you aren't around, when i can't touch you. you deserve so much good." you could hear the smile on their face. gods, they were so dear. now you were smiling too.
"... i love you." they whispered, even softer than the rest.
all sleepiness left your system at that. you sat up so quick you startled yourself, even more so your significant other.
they looked up at you, eyes wide and face a pleasant and endearing shade of red.
you stayed like that for a moment, neither saying a word as you both blinked at each other.
"you love me?" you blurted out, immediately feeling a pang of regret as your face burned.
taking a more hushed voice, you repeated, "... you love me?"
by this point you had overcome the shock, now grinning uncontrollably as your eyes grew glossy.
looking to your partner, they were growing redder by the second. to be honest, they looked on the verge of tears as well.
reaching up to cradle their face in your hands, you mumbled small reassurances. you had to hear it again, you had to make sure that you hadn't imagined it.
the first sign of affirmation was a slight nod from them. after that, it was as though a dam had broken and suddenly they could not stop the flow of emotions that had been welling up.
"i love you. so much. it's- i couldn't just. i love you, and, and i had to say something somehow. even if you were asleep, i just-" they rambled, hiccups cutting them off as they began to cry.
"oh, bug..." you began, wiping away their tears and pressing light kisses where they were.
"i love you too. i love you, and i love you for telling me. i love you for being here, for being you," you pressed a kiss to the corner of their mouth. "i love you."
now you both had tears running down your faces. but you also both had smiles brighter than any sun.
"oh thank gods," they breathily laughed. "can i, can i kiss you?" they smiled so genuinely that it reached their eyes, red and cute as apples.
"please do." you said, leaning in.
you could feel them smiling into the kiss. they always kissed you like they had been waiting to do it all day. another thing you loved about them.
breaking apart from each other, they rested their forehead on yours, eyes still closed as though they wanted to hold on the moment.
Sage spends his birthdays in bars surrounded by strangers. Instead of eating cake, he downs his special “jungle juice” brew. It never goes well and he never learns, but he also never remembers. Seven bar fights in one day is his record. Happy Birthday Sage?

I don’t know if it’s just me who stumbled on very bad takes or if it’s a general misconception in the olnf fandom but Opale is very much aro/ace coded ?
I see a lot of people trying to mention a dad ( in regard of opale ) but it’s said that she’s an independent lady who is not interested or have high standards to settle down who wanted to have a kid on her own. There isn’t a person to fulfill the role has a dad because she chose to do it on her own ( which is very brave to do ). She chose a sperm donor and it was chosen to not have any contact with him ( so mutual no contact ) which mean there isn’t even a possibility for a dad in at least the emotional sense because the role of the donor in the story is just this title « the donor »
If you want to have Opale in à relationship or have a sort of double parental figure for some reason then you can look at Yussuf who is an older male figure who has been hinted as liking Opale but also having a cool familly vibe type of role in the story.
Now the mc can feel how they want about this situation this isn’t something that is on their hands as this lack of relationship has been settled and agreed in the narrative. You can make up your headcanons sure but don’t erase the representation that is Opale, it’s rare to have stories with a donor parent but even more rare to see an independent ( probaly on the aroace spectrum ) woman being independent while still wanting to have a family.
Thank you @meesherbeans for the confirmation, Opale is indeed canonly asexual, even more clear she’s a sex repulsed asexual with high standards ( so could be on the aromantism spectrum in a way )
Anyway stop trying to link this woman to a guy, she’s strong and independent and is a wonderful queer representation !
I don't know if this got asked before or if you even still answer XOXO droplets asks, but im just gonna ask regardless. Could Lynn ever build like a parental bond with one of the students? Like.. if they needed to spend a lot of time in the nurses office because of conditions and maybe they build more of a bond, could he maybeee build parental affection for that student? And how would he react if a student saw him as a father figure? :3
He wouldn't. Lynn is a guarded guy and he's strict about boundaries between students and faculty. He could inwardly have a lot of sympathy for someone's situation and strongly want them to have a good life, but would never try to be anything more than their school nurse. If someone did see him as a father figure, he'd gently let them down.
Although, years after the XOD characters have graduated, Lynn actually marries Shiloh's mom. So he, semi-jokingly, takes on the mantel of being Shiloh's new dad. Shiloh does not enjoy that, haha.
