what if there was an au where Shadow is revived as a cat, but he has no idea by who or why he’s a cat all of a sudden. While trying to figure it out he ends up getting found by Red who’s like “aw cute homeless babyyyyy… mine now!” And adopts him, which is of course like “no, wait. fuck. nO. WHY” and he keeps trying to get away from them cause they’re gonna be furious when they figure out there cat is their old enemy and knowing his luck it’s only a matter of time. but Red’s very purrsistent and finally manages to drag him home and is like “HEY GUYS I GOT US A CAT!!” and the only one okay with this immediately is Vio, and Blue takes one look at him and is like “Shadow.” And of course Shadow panics a little because “Fuck I’ve been found out already!” But Red’s like “huh?” And Blue says “a black cat with red eyes and the look of a war criminal? Yeah, I’m naming him Shadow there is no other possible name for him.” And shadows like “rude” but then Vio chimes in with “yeah we can name him Shadow Meowthazar the floof wizard or something” and Red is like “YES” and Shadow already hates his new life.
and you know for a fact that people tell there cats shit they wouldn’t tell anyone else because why go to therapy when you have a cat right there. And Shadow’s mission goes quickly from “find out who brought me back” to “give these people as much aggressive cat therapy as possible ma gawd.”
Green teaches him tricks and stuff to prank the others and Shadow is 1000% down for this because now he has an excuse for knowing how to open doors and read and also gets the added bonus of fucking with everyone, his favourite person to fuck with is surprisingly Vio which is only partially Green’s fault with his subliminal messaging because Vio has all the best responses whereas Red chalks it up to magic floof wizard powers and Blue just gets really excited like “finally someone to do my paperwork” or “oh you helping out Vio” nod “okay good help him get his ass out of his room to participate in society next” salute “thanks bud *gives him a treat and a pat*”
What if someone breaks in one night while everyone’s sleeping (like a monster or something) and they wake up to the sounds of a their cat possibly dying and the intruder in pain and they rush downstairs to save their cat but he’s just sitting on top of his felled opponent seemingly unscathed (because shadow powers and quicker healing) and they’re like “shit I am so glad this cat like us” and Red is like “I hereby knight thee Shadow Meowthazar floof wizard the slayer of intruders lord of Vio’s dark armies” and everyone is like “yes” and except Vio who is like “lord of my what?” Shadow regrets everything in life.

I have an idea for a genre of game.
idk what medium the games would be in, I guess whatever supports it, but anyways.
So you have a few different povs, and a few different characters that the pov isn't in. Kinda like those games where during the different chapters you play as different characters, but with a twist: You don't control the character, the character in the chapter has near full control over their own actions, you just talk to them and guide them. My thoughts on how this would work would be like; you see a room full of different objects, character goes to walk past one that catches your eye, you go "oh, wait, what was that? Go look, on the table there!" And the character (depending on their personality) will either go look for what you're trying to find, or will ignore you.
You playing the game would only have proper control during "possessions": Short periods of time in which one or more players can take over the character's body and steer them in the right direction or walk them through pain that would have otherwise debilitated them or even to do one of those quick time events in a combat situation. Of course possessing a character has consequences on mental and physical health and how they're viewed by others, but sometimes that's necessary.
Also, the characters you're able to guide/possess would be the only ones able to hear you, either that or the characters are only able to hear you when it's their turn to be guided.
It could also be done so that one person is in control of one character and other people are guiding that player, to add to the fun and maybe make it easier to make as a video game.
I have no idea if this concept already exists, but I think it would be cool!
always what I imagine ghost speak sounding like
many people are giving up on rise of the guardians. I just want to see how many of us are left…
me and my brother learning math from our dad
I normally name OCs by associated-word/background/forshadowing keywords and then google "are there any [character gender] names for [keyword]" and pick the most fitting/best sounding option. Either that or taking the letter-switch-cipher I made and making a name out of that.
like I once searched "are there any girl names associated with air and the colour green" and got the name Sage for my OC, and used a similar naming scheme for all the OCs from her group like Ocean (water + blue) Ember (fire + red) Violet (earth + purple) Lumi (light + gold) and Shad (shadow + black).
Or when naming the characters for a different idea I was thinking of I went with Lex (Alexis + Alexander), Lorelei (lore/exposition queen + excessive lier), Vega (star + light = brightest star), and Ruben (a male given name that has its roots in the Hebrew language. The name means “behold, a son” and is derived from the biblical story of Jacob and his firstborn son, Reuben. - google).
Or when naming the characters for a story where each character has their knightly title be a colour and are generally named for that colour I would google names associated with the colour and an aspect of their personality or a feature of them (kinda like how most got their last names)!
Whats YOUR method of naming OCs?
Reblogging to find it easier 😅
(I no longer get all my greek mythose info from the RRverse)
It’s about three games. every 10 to 100 years a woman that is probably in some way related to God (JK JK but still she hella powerful) picks a mythology and a curtain number of teens to represent the counsel of that mythology, and has the representatives play these hunger games level versions of playground games (no one dies, well they do, but these games take place in the dream’s of the teens, and whatever skills they acquire in the dream stay with them IRL and they get no rest while in this dream because science) like hide and seek, tag, paintball/dodgeball, even mafia once (but like, the version where it’s cupid, guardian angle, and a tad more PG). one time (the time the story/dream takes place in) is during when the Greek mythology was chosen.
The dream/story takes place from the POV of the representative of Apollo. if the representatives die it’s them losing the game, and the god/goddess they represent has to spend the equivalent of the total sum of days until either everyone loses or the game is won as mortal (did that make any sense? no? say the representative of Aphrodite died on day 1th in the 20 day lasting 1st game, the 4th of the 6 day lasting 2nd game, and the entirety of the final game. the goddess herself would have to spend 20 days as a mortal).
The first game is selected as hide & seek, and everyone has to find a sage trapped throughout this legends of Zelda style map and free them in order to win. each time a sage is released it gives the representative of the equivalent god 1 or 2 powers they can use for the rest of the games, and even outside the games if they were to know how (which no one ever does). or at least, all sages must be freed it doesn’t really matter by who.
and because in this dream I was the representative of Apollo, this kid’s treating this whole thing like a video game, and knows how to survive in the wilderness, which is kinda where the hide & seek game takes place.
Of course I get all my Greek info from Uncle Rick so have fun.
I have no self control, okay?
Okay, so a few things here have changed. Kolasi’s scar is on the left side, and he can’t see through that eye, but it doesn’t remain shut. He ranges 17-22 each dtl.
Neggero/Neggra only comes off as really rude, and salty when really they’re just bluntly honest, and sarcastic. That was just an error I made back then.
It’s now spelled Hamairah.
so, I've been reblogging the Tag-that-oc oc questions so Imma put a little backstory into the characters.
Luna is an amnesiac arsonist who doesn't fear death because she's died and come back. Her most defining feature is her silver hair despite the fact that she is clearly a teenager. she ranges between 16 to 21 during each dimensional time loop (or DTL as the kids call it).
Kolasi is two people; the spirit of an old conqueror named Magadon who died do to over using his magic, and summoning more monsters than he could control, and a young fire user named Leo, who is from a world that is like this weird mix of Harry Potter, and Percy Jackson, but isn't (trust me, it isn't). His two most defining features are his hight (he's very tall , almost has to bend down when he enters a room), and the long scar over his right eye that stretches from his chin to above his hairline. He can still see through his right eye though, just with so much more zoom and clarity that it gives him a headache. he ranges between 18 to 23 during each DTL.
Neggero/Negra is a living shadow, they are gender fluid and can change their appearance depending on the gender they are that day. they are really rude, and salty, but they hardly mean to be. they're most defining feature is their shadowy grey/chestnut skin-tone. they range between 14 to 19 during each DTL.
Zvezda is a living star, he's really emotional, and very nice. He's kinda like the emotional support of the group, and the medic of the group... He's also the only one who can keep his twin from being rude, Luna likes to quote angry birds with these two; "water is the softest thing, but can penetrate mountains and earth". his most defining feature is he can glow in the dark. He ranges between 14 to 19 during each DTL.
Jack is a human, he had gotten into an argument with his best friend, and ran off. getting in between a dimension travel portal, and a young boy (who eventually dimension traveled anyway) he ended up dimension traveling.
a dimensional time loop is the duration of time a dimension traveler spend in each dimension, DT (dimension travel) ages range from 12 to 20 and DTLs last five years. a woman named Hamarah is in charge of dimension travel, and the mythic games. people normally dimension travel because they give too much magic to the world, throwing it off balance, or take to much magic from the world, again throwing it off balance.
Huh. "percy
go to therapy. please."
honestly wasn't expecting that.
i made a random uquiz lol
