Vultures are holy creatures.
Tending the dead.
Bowing low.
Bared head.
Whispers to cold flesh,
“Your old name is not your king.
I rename you ‘Everything.’”
Thank you for the tag! I am curious about “Burn the witch” and I think I remember the song that it might be referencing 👀
From: Ask me about my WIP Titles
Thank you for the ask Quails! And yesss, the song reference for this one is Burn the Witch by PVRIS! Not a literal one to one, but def the vibes and some of the lyrics give major Diana when she's not fucking around anymore.
I don't have a lot written down on this one yet so idk if I have much to share via a direct snippet, but the outline and certain scenes live very vividly in my head (listening to that song and I reread The Crucible last fall for some inspo).
Also this one is actually going to be told from Lyra the Lunari's perspective! Kind of like a sideline reporter of the action. It takes place before the More to Burn story when Leona fights Diana for the first time in 10 years, so this is right when Diana returns to Targon.
The general premise is Lyra is living in hiding in a Solari village with her boyfriend from the Vaulted Road cinematic, working as a spy for the Lunari. The Solari Burning Ones have been growing more radical and taking center stage in public. Someone (cough cough Diana), has been nailing written documents, a la Martin Luther style thesis, all over town challenging the Solari doctrines and behavior, and so the Solari show up to find the culprit. They _say_ they have the person responsible in custody, and gather everyone in the center of the village for a public execution by fire that evening, but a dark hooded figure who approaches the pyre from the crowd might have more to say on the matter.
(I'm sure it's a very reasonable and civil conversation...)
Anyway! I'm hoping to get to this one after I finish the Sunforger's Holiday. I don't think it's going to be too long a fic, but there's a lot set in motion from it in my story universe. Thanks again!
Gonna share my entries for Leodia Week here :D
This one was a combination of Day 1's "Acolyte" prompt and Day 2's "Ascension" prompt.
I had the sudden inspiration to draw a Sheikah-inspired dragon, then I colored it in based on Impa’s color palette. I guess dragon! Impa it is then.
I made the Sheikah pretty standard oriental dragons, and I think koi like designs would fit the race pretty well. Dragon Impa here is partially inspired by an Asagi koi.
I will perhaps expand this Dragon AU. I have some solid ideas for what Hylians and Gerudo would look like already.
i implore you all to look at the waterlogged project on inaturalist. check this shit out

So I see a lot of posts about Caitlyn hesitating to kill Jinx at the tea party scene, and how that moment probably haunts both her and Vi after.
But rewatching the scene, I noticed an important detail and realized, Caitlyn likely dodged a bullet (literally) by not shooting Jinx.
After a tense confrontation with an escaped Caitlyn and hearing Vi plead for her life, Jinx seems to yield.
We see her look around as if in contemplation, then slowly took a few steps back.
After being told to "drop the gun" a second time, Jinx finally put the handgun on the table...right in front of Silco.
We all know Powder/Jinx is incredibly intelligent. It appears to me the decision to put the handgun within Silco's reach is a deliberate one. (Silco would later grab the gun and attempt to shoot Vi.)
Silco was the only participant at the tea party who had no qualms with killing his opponents. Despite the peculiarity of the moment, Jinx knows Silco would come to her defense if anything happened to her.
This actually shows how much Jinx trusts her adoptive father even after the statue scene.
If Caitlyn shot Jinx, Silco would most likely grab the gun and fire at Caitlyn. Given the Kiramman's diverted attention and without Jinx there to stop him (why would she?), Silco would not have missed like in canon.
(I would also like to add that being shot has much graver consequences for Caitlyn compared to Jinx, who is enhanced by Shimmer.)
Now I doubt Jinx did it on purpose, but knocking Caitlyn unconscious and taking her out of the equation might have actually saved Caitlyn's life.
Spoilers for BG3 epilogue (datamined dialogue)
Was anybody going to tell me that if an origin Karlach goes to Avernus with a romanced Lae'zel, they end up hatching the Gith egg and carry the baby around in a PORTABLE HOLE while hunting devils or am I just supposed to find out from the datamine myself
