@ocdevelopmentstuff Asked For A Moodboard For Their Soldier Aksel. Hope You Like This One! Requests For

one of the reasons why "what if people went on a road trip and it was weird" is one of the oldest story types is that a lot of sense of personhood has been, historically, tied to place. the weird road trip says "what if we went somewhere else, where no one knows us, and tried out being a different person".

Odysseus, the famous liar, goes on a weird road trip & over the course of it becomes several different people, and then comes home & is all those people as well as himself, wearing the echoes of those other people

I’m sorry this took so long! Here’s to the bard Hedorim Tolmish, by @hawkeyesout-punks. I hope it was worth the wait!

I once wrote a fairytale where a girl lived on the border between two realms, and everytime she fucked something up, two princes came running down to save her. After about sixteen times, the princes decided to teach her how to fend for herself. Long story short, the princes fell in love with eachother and the girl got a sword. I feel this was some quality writing from 15 yo me.

Write me a story where the two guys in the love triangle give up on the girl and date each other.

The real horror of The Magnus Archives is having to listen to your favorite characters breaking down live on tape and sobbing their eyes out. You can’t reach them. You can’t hug them. You can’t even make them tea. 

a tip for writing female characters: don’t be afraid to make her feral. just absolutely batshit. her actual intelligence? that can vary. but bring out the chaotic stupid tendencies. embrace her as a one brain cell enemy of the state

This one is to Ana, an alien queen with a dark past, by @lethalblizzard. I hope you can recognize her here! Requests for OC aesthetics are open.

Waterwegen: [5/7]  [1/7]  [2/7]  [3/7]  [4/7]

Tungsten basically lives in his tophat (actually, his pet Milton lives in his tophat, but you get my drift).

Phosphore is stunningly beautiful and enjoys wearing long, classy dresses in striking colours, like deep purple or yellow.

Zinc is always bruised and scraped, like he had a fight with a straycat or fell down a hill. Both are actual possible explanations.

Antimony has a long, velvet coat in dark blue, embroied with gold-tread stars.

Adam might be the most uitstanding (at least from a nowadays perspective). Like all the others, he lives in 1800 and dresses in this fashion. His jackets are mostly lightly coloured, in pink or baby blue, and his vests are often embroied with flowers. He wears matching gloves and walks with a limp and a cane (with a beautiful, silver grip, of course).

do any of y’alls oc’s have interesting physical feature/outfits? i want to hear!!

and also maybe draw them if i have the energy
