Are we all not going to acknowledge caramelldansen
So this one…this one had to be taken in the 10 year gap of the game. So be warned you’re dealing with older bros. I would say that it would more off of the “Good Ending” of episode Ignis. I also cried writing these because I got to emotional…
~~~~~
Noctis
The first time he saw you, he honestly didn’t believe it. You were visiting the Citadel when they requested an artist who could touch up some of the painting that had been ruined in the attack.
But Noctis could not, would not forget the face of the woman he would throw this all away for. To the woman that was killed protecting himself and Lunafreya all those years ago.
He wasn’t even certain he had said anything until you were alone, studying a painting of himself as a child, “Y/N?”
Gladio: I really think this anagram approach makes a lot of sense.
Ignis: Seriously? Let’s do it. I’ll take even clues, you take odds.
Gladio: Great.
Prompto: And I will take everyone’s coffee order. That’s equally helpful.
Gladio: I don’t drink coffee, but I’d love a kombucha.
Prompto: Great, I’ll just walk to the kombucha store.
Gladio’s invited automatically because he gets along with everybody
Prompto’s invited too, because it’s probably one of his Aunties throwing the cookout
Noctis is the third to be invited because Prompto invites him, but that probably doesn’t count
Ignis is last to be invited. Not because nobody likes him, but because he’s antisocial and has to be bribed and… that’s a lot of work. He brings dessert though
/trips big and dropps my otp : ;w; ;w ;; ;w;;w; ;w; w;;
when will i ever officially let them married none of us are finding the right moment, some adult opts Rusty Ossifrage x Sienna Pavo kasdfgaksdf
loveley supporting adults but not making any move of proposal still dropping hints eveywhere, giving her kids and friends toothaches from the sweetness asdjflsaldfsadf
I have so much moods for some duo drawings but one day imma try a cool portrait of them solo
Dragoon armor!!!!! I’m still crying over the fact that I won’t get the dragoon gear in MHW cause behemoth is gonna wreck me and I don’t have online friends who play the game DX
Aranea is so badass, she can stab me with her spear and I’ll say thank you
[Astera Dragoon]
– “Jump up into the sky and crash down onto monsters with an explosive impact. Nothing is too impossible or too tough for a Dragoon.”
Moogle Chocobo Carnival Outfit! Also redid the base for the hunter cause the first one is so bad to my eyes ahahah XD I might just redraw the Lucis gear cause the lack of composition is hurting my eyes XD The armor description is gonna be listed here cause it would ruin the composition if I used it on the art.
Can you imagine how adorable it would be if the Palico played with the choco chicks? If I had the animation skills it would melt my heart.
[Carnival Attire] – “A festive attire that has a special attack that can activate when certain circumstances are met. Unleashing a swarm of chocobo chicks on the enemy.”
@mandakatt Made the Lucis Gear as the replacement for the Hunter’s starting gear.
It was Prompto and Noct’s idea to dress the cat… Don’t ask why the Palico looks like a biker
Artwork done by me
Do NOT Repost
Hunter: You guys, this is awesome! You didn’t have to do this for me though.
Ignis: But of course we did. You are our Royal Hunter after all.
Hunter: *laughs softly* Don’t you think that me being called a Royal Hunter is going to confuse your hunters here?
Gladio: Nah. They’ll get it.
Palico: Meowster! *bounds up and climbs on, sitting on the hunters shoulder!*
Hunter: Huh? Oh whoa! *giggle* Well look at you!
Palico: I got mew clothes too!
Hunter: I see. *looks over at Prompto and Noctis with a smile*
Prompto: *rests his hands behind his head* Well, our best little buddy couldn’t be left out now, could he?
Noctis: Yeah. Figured it was best they match you, y’know?
Hunter: *crosses arms* You just couldn’t resist to dress up the cat, could you?
Palico: *purr-laugh*
These NERDS would dress up the Palico. At any chance they could. The Palico wouldn’t mind either really.
Also, you cannot tell me that Nocits would/could/DOES pout when Iggy doesn’t let him buy toddler sized clothing for said Palico when they’re out getting supplies. X3
Omfhshs you’re right! Noctis can and will use the prince card as an excuse to dress the palico!
@mandakatt Redid the handler Prompto cause I wasn’t satisfied with the coloring.
[Handler Prompto] – “An upbeat handler with a strangely loyal Kulu Ya Ku. Most hunters adore his company and can’t help but feel sorry for the small monsters being hunted.”
@mandakatt I’m going to post the bros individually before posting the four set together in one post… hope you don’t mind me tagging you in each one like spam XD
[Piscine Researcher Noctis] – “A stranger from a far away land who travels the world challenging hunters to fish. Sometimes hunts on his own but only targets leviathans and piscine wyverns.”
You know, what was it you told me once, that if you put your mind to it, you can do anything? Well, I’m pretty sure that if you set yourself a goal you’ll get there. Cause that’s just how awesome I think you are.
I’m sure that there’s someone at school that can help you with these things too. Like a councilor or maybe one of your teachers can point you in the right way. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from you and the guys, it’s to never be afraid to ask for help. Even though that took me awhile to get there.
Hey! I’ll make you a deal…!
For every grade you get up, and for every step closer you get to your goal, I’ll snap a picture, or a selfie of us and we can see just how far you’ve come. Sound good?
Er…well ok, if you don’t like the selfie part…uh, how about…we make for a date–uh–hangout at the arcade, and we finally see who can get the better high score?
Yessss! I have a few! (Sorry I’ve only just got around to answering this btw b)
Jesse’s glowing arm and Sombra’s glowing eyes are both a visual side effects of curses that were cast upon them. They both happend to have had a bad encounter with a demon in their pasts that resulted in them getting cursed and in them now having matching cursed features.
Demon hunters have different families/factions/clans that stick with their own and rarely work together. Both Sombra and Jesse were picked up by some of the more questionable demon hunting clans (Los Muertos and Deadlock) when they were younger. They both later switched to different, more legitimate, clans (Talon and Blackwatch) where they hunt more superior demons.
Sometime after joining their new clans, the pair ended up having to join forces when hunting a very powerful demon in order to survive (despite each of their new clans having a huge hatered for eachother). During this time the pair ended up getting closer and having casual relationships – which later turns into somthing more.
When working together at first, Sombra and Mccree both kept a tally of how many times one of them had saved the other. The person who got saved the most had to buy the drinks.
However, after the first month of working together, they had both saved eacother so many times that they had lost count – they then both resulted to charming one another to get free drinks.
They spend a l o t of time in taverns after succefully hunting a demon together.
They also spend alot of time in taverns after unsuccesfully hunting a demon together.
Ahhh that’s awesome that you’re interested in doing that! Tbh I’m not sure I’ll have time to make a reference sheet >_< I promise I’ll try to find time. But I can tell you the main pieces of the outfit for now.
Long-sleeved black turtleneck, pushed up to the elbows (Last year I drew the shirt with peep shoulders, but let’s say that’s optional)
Thick belt at waist (pouches full of witchy knick-knacks a definite A+++)
Dark pants (tucked into boots)
Knee-high lace-up black boots
Black witch’s hat with red belt/sash at the base
Feathers and beads at the end
Black hooded cape with red trim
Black fingerless gloves
Lots of earrings and gold jewelry like rings, bracelets, etc (but not a feather earring– he wears those on his hat)
A story that came out in my mind while I was folding laundry at 5:30am 😂 (I try to make this gender neutral as possible)
But imagine one day. You were just about awake, feeling groggy and your senses were telling you all sorts of wrong. That something was off and you need to get up and investigate now. So you did. The first thing you noticed was that it was incredibly bright. Like the sun just fucking hit you in the eyes and when you looked around. You noticed that it was a fairly huge tent. A magazine could be found laying around next to a messy pile of cards. There was also a map sitting around which you assume is the map of the “world”– you were incredibly groggy that it took you 5 seconds to realize that you were supposed to be in your room, in your bed, air conditioner blasting, curtains closed–
You looked down to see that you were clad in a black t-shirt, a pair of worn out black boxers and your body feels wrong too. Your hands are off, the energy rippling inside was definitely an alien sensation to you– so in a fit of panick, you whimpered and got out, shaking and wishing this is definitely a dream.
Except that it isn’t.
As you stumbled outside of the tent, a sinking feeling went down your stomach as you saw awfully familiar people and someone was talking to you– asking breakfast and although it was afternoon you needed lunch Noctis–
Noctis
You were called Noctis.
And you just had to slap yourself in front of everyone or pinched yourself, whatever to wake you up. You ended up laughing and asking if this was all just one elaborate vivid lucid dream.
Prompto looked downright concerned, hands frozen on his camera. He asked you if you were alright (buddy are you okey? Did you have a nightmare again?). Gladio looked up from whatever he was doing– oh. Oh okey he was checking on their supplies and you were quickly engulfed with fear, anxiety, panic. (He looked so so real…!)
All hell break lose from there as you realized you are Prince Noctis, the magic that was running through your vein was very much real and it was awful. It was already tiring you out in the afernoon and you should feel giddy that you were in a game you were recently obsessed with.
But reality sunk in so fast and you were wondering how were you going to get home. Your heart raced and you just collasped, having a hard time to breathe. Gladio, Prompto and Ignis were hovering over you in one second flat, obviously worried for their prince.
Their king you meant. You realized you took their king’s position.
The chocobros did their best to calm you, Gladio was pretty straightforward and he asked what the hell happened and asked if you needed space.
A calming hum washed over you and it was like saying, “you’re fine, you’re okey. Don’t worry.” The voice belonged to non-other than Noctis himself. Stuck inside his own mind and with you as the one controlling.
You blacked out from there. (Noctis is there just in spectral form. He was pissy you took over his body but seeing you too have no idea wot in the flying fock happened. He couldn’t blame you. The boys can see him but that was after you passed out.)
And things went south from there and a new ot5 is slowly approaching.
In this the bros will slowly go from being wary of you to treating you like a needed comrade, to a friend, close partners and will slowly undeniably fall in love with you as the way you are. (They get annoyed if you have playfully ship them even to the point of daring kisses on the cheeks! But this made the bros realize how deep their connections with each other is. The boys went poly!)
If you have self esteem issue, Prompto and Noctis will beat you the punch and say. “Who cares about how you look? You’re great the way you are!” (Hidden pointed look towards Prom and how you wish to prot e c c)
When you have your head in your ass Gladio will smack you the fuck up and be stern (like a strict bro) but in return he would also give you a lending hand and would joke around and slowly will become protective of you “In a way, you are a civilian. So let me play hero for you.”
Ignis sweet Ignis. He was a silent companion. Constantly there when you are down. Have a sit and he will listen to any problems you have in mind. If things got so bad he will lay your head on his lap and stroke your hair, “Noctis used to be like this when he was just a wee child… It helps… Know that you are not alone.”
They love you the way you are… So that was why when YOU were the one who the crystal wants to be sacrificed to bring the dawn.
First, I wish to remind you that this will not always happen this way. What is coming to pass now, hurts yes, and I am sad to hear that the individual you had feelings for was not to be yours, but there is always another out there waiting for you.
You simply just have not met them yet.
Just remember, that sometimes not getting what you want is a wonderful stroke of luck.
You are a good man. And from what I have learned of you, you will push forward. Your heartbreak will heal, and with it, you yourself, grow stronger, and with that you will be strong enough to face it all, even if it doesn’t feel as if you can at the moment. But you will.
if would be interesting if i put him in a role as a swords art teacher in the academy im thinking about, he is the worse cause he insists you will only learn in real combat
i tired. SO HARD. to think of a not smutty scenario for this prompt. *reaches into freezer* tried *grabs icecube tray* so *dumps over head* hard
nsfw. go to church, don’t make the same mistakes as old jasper kiddos, it’s not too late for you
“Could you be any louder?”
“Is that a challenge?”
It wasn’t, but that didn’t stop Noctis from rising to meet it
anyway. He was always challenging Ravus like that, trying to “win” this little
game they were playing – if one could even call it that. If his idea of “winning”
entailed successfully advertising to the entire country of Tenebrae that the Crown
Prince of Lucis was fucking with the High Commander of Niflheim, then he was
playing the wrong game.
In Noctis’s – admittedly limited – experience with kissing, one
rarely kissed another without every intention of doing so. The fact that even
Noctis knew that better than Ravus spoke to the other man’s inexperience
towards romantic gestures – although Noctis would hardly call this
“unintentional” kiss he was referencing “romantic.” Despite sympathizing with
the Commander’s ignorance, Noctis couldn’t resist using this opportunity to
tease him.
“You sure?” he asked, arching a skeptical brow. “Because that’s not
what it felt like.”
Literally when people were first speculating about Ravus’s involvement in Episode Ignis, I was all ‘You know what? That’d be pretty cool!’
And then I met an Ignis for a RP partner on my RP blog and went ‘Wow! These two would be really precious together.’
And now Ravus is, in fact, confirmed with Episode Ignis, and I’m in Hell.
I’m one of those people that can ship Ravus with practically everyone in the series (or out of series too, because OOH BABY THAT CAIUS x RAVUS THO. A VIDEO EDITOR’S PARADISE). And despite me of course having my favorites with Ardyn/Ravus and Gladio/Ravus, Ravus/Ignis nestled itself among the top five. Hell, the top three, for I don’t touch in on Ravus/Noctis content as much as I’d like to anymore (I should though!).
Like, in my perspective, Ravus would get along with Ignis far better than any other character within the FFXV universe. Even more so than Lunafreya, considering that those two fail to see eye-to-eye due to Lunafreya’s dedication to Noctis and her headstrong decisions that are driven by her blind loyalty to him and the kingdom of Lucis. With Ignis, I can imagine that Ravus would find it admirable that just because Ignis remains loyal to Noctis, he’s driven to points where he would be willing to fight, not willing to falter under any circumstances. Both typically uphold a professional demeanor as well, knowing that appearances are extremely important in their predicaments.
But I also like the idea of Ravus admiring Ignis because of not only his dedication and loyalty, but because Ignis is a character who still tries to show compassion despite his own hardships. Hell, we even see it during Chapter 10. Ignis was blinded of all things, but he was more worried about the others ruining their friendships with one another than his own well-being. Even if he didn’t really see Ignis during the events after Chapter 9, I can still imagine that he could find a great sense of appreciation in Ignis. Perhaps even during that moment when he met the party during Chapter 5 (because Ignis was the only one who didn’t have the sword pointed at his neck. Not intimidated but also not careless or abrasive like Gladiolus was during that moment). Ignis would, if he needed to, jump to Noctis’s aid, but not be as much of a reckless brute as Gladiolus would be.
But I digress with my little bit of rambling about the canon. Non-canologically, the idea of Ravus during the party member AU I ramble about often is a STRONG one, and one that really does make my Ravnis thoughts just soar. Because going back to that compassion that Ignis has, if Ravus was a party member, I imagine that Ignis would be one of the first to really show patience and genuine care about Ravus. His job’s to ensure to well-being of the party, of course, but he knows what it’s like to lose his family, his identity in a way – for he was raised into a life to serve and only serve. Meanwhile, Ravus was forced into a life of military hardship. Kill or be killed. It’s harder to assimilate to a difference lifestyle and to loosen up when all you’ve known is one kind of life, after all.
He would probably attempt to get Ravus to calm down enough with him and the party, so that Ravus won’t be a threat. But also, if they were to trust one another, they’d have to act like they did trust each other. Ravus is always on edge as it is, but the little things to show Ravus that the others genuinely do want Ravus to be a great ally and a friend is what Ignis would attempt.
Because Ignis makes a mean cake, and Ravus just can’t refuse cake.
But gosh, I can ramble about these two for a long time because I really like the genuine development that can happen between these two. In my little headcanon mind – compared to all of the other ship possibilities – Ignis and Ravus seems the most natural in development. Ships like Ardyn/Ravus or Gladio/Ravus fall under the ‘rivalmance’ tropes quite often, a ship like RavNoct is more on that angst-train or some rival/hate ship stuff, Prompto/Ravus is cute but probably stranger to imagine without something super cute and tropey happening, etc and so forth.
But Ravus and Ignis. Two souls with unwavering devotion to their loyalties, a common background of subservience, and a fateful chance to encounter one another in a race against time to find the ones they care about most… I can see alot of common comparisons between them, that’s for sure! And I think that’s what makes them such a great ship in my mind!
That, and the thought of some kinky Ravnis things is too good not to think about. *cough* I can delve into that another time~
@anaer was talking about how Cloud would rather spend time chocobo racing instead of saving the world, meanwhile Squall can’t help but stop to play triple triad every other minute.
Whenever authors write about their characters making “vulgar gestures” at people all I can picture is this gif and it totally throws me off my reading game
If i’m being honest, this is exactly what I mean when I say a character is making vulgar gestures
I feel like the reason certain dog-lovers insist cats are evil is because they read their body language as if they were dogs. So here’s a very basic guide to common “mean” things cats do that actually aren’t mean at all if you know what they’re thinking.
Rolling and exposing belly- attacks you when touched Does not mean: Give belly rubs! – haha I tricked you! Actually means: I’m playful! If you reach for my belly I’ll grab your arm and bite it because I think we’re playfighting!
Lazily exposing belly – still attacks when touched Does not mean: tricked you again! Actually means: I’m showing you my belly because I trust you. Please don’t break that trust by invading my personal space. I might accept a belly rub if I’m not ticklish and I know you well.
Snapping at you while being pet Does not mean: I suddenly decided I dislike you! Actually means: You’re petting me in a way that gives me too much restless energy. Please focus on petting my head and shoulders instead of stroking the full length of my back next time.
Is in the same room but makes no attempt to interact Does not mean: I’m ignoring you Actually means: We’re hanging out! I’m being respectful by giving you space while still enjoying your company.
Slapping/scratching your hand when you try to pet them Does not mean: I hate you! Actually means: You’ve failed to establish that we’re not playing, or the way you’re approaching me scares me. Be calmer, speak more gently, make eye-contact and blink slowly at me before you try again.
I love this post omg, thank you so much. As a lifelong cat person, dogs perplex me because they’re so completely different behaviourally.
I love dogs too but, I’ve been trying to tell people, you canNOT treat cats like you treat dogs. They arent the same animals and have very different personalities
P.s.: people often pet cats way too hard. Dogs like a firm pet or a pat on the belly, cats dont have the same bone structure and are more flexible than dogs so what you’re doing probably hurts them
Sitting and staring Does not mean: I am challenging you/plotting your demise/just generally evil and creepy. Actually means: I am a desert-adapted species, so my natural tears are very thick and keep my eyes moist for a nice long time. I do find people interesting and enjoy watching them. I just don’t need to blink very often!
Staring and blinking slowly Does not mean: I’m smug and think I am smarter than you. Actually means: I like you! But I don’t need to get up in your face to show it. I can just sit over here and blow kisses at you to show you I am glad you are around!
It’s very frustrating for me when people expect cats to act like dogs, or act like they’re deceitful. They aren’t! They just AREN’T DOGS.
Pour les chats 🐈💞
Get ready for “more reasons why I fucking love cats”
Yes, the legends are true. Cats headbutt you to show their trust and affection. They also do it to show “hey look I see you as family.” Lions do it with members of their pride to say the same. It’s not just because they want food.
Cats nibbling is indeed literally cats grooming you. It’s what mom cats do to their kittens. If a cat is gently biting and/or licking you, they’re now your mom.
Meowing can simply be for the mere fact they want to say hello, want to play or be pet. Again, not just for food.
They barely meow at other cats (except for kittens, they meow at mom cat), mostly just humans. There are exceptions but overall, meowing is almost always for us.
Cats squinting/slow blinking is indeed basically the equivalent of us smiling and/or kissing.
Cats, like humans, prefer to get things without having to work for it- which isn’t very common within other animals.
Cat massages or making biscuits is because they happy! Kneading is another way of saying “hey I like this moment here I enjoy you and my life.”
Cats recognize us by smell, sound, taste, and touch. They recognize us after years as their long term memory is extremely good. This is why abused or neglected cats are so easily scared or hard to connect with. If your scent changes over the years or just in the day, your voice will them it’s really you. Also, they will only remember you if you had impact on their life. If you just existed in the same house, they obviously won’t care.
And yes, they know our patterns in the day. You notice it when it’s beneficial to them (feeding time!). They will often wait for you to come home as well.
To remember: cats think we are interesting as hell. They watch us do everything because we’re fascinating!!!
They also want you to be around when eating because they feel vulnerable. They focus on eating so they hope you protect them. They do the same for you, all the time.
CATS 😍😍😍😍
when a cat turns their back on you, they’re not snubbing you. they’re trusting you to watch their back.
notice how when you’re unfamiliar but nonthreatening, they might loaf facing you and sorta halfway watch you. you’re not fully trusted, but you’re ok by them.
when you’re familiar and liked, they’ll often sit near you facing the same way. imitation of poses is a weird little way cats show solidarity. they do it to each other too. check out these bff’s:
they are doing this on purpose. it’s a buddy thing. so if you’re watching tv and a cat sits next to you and pretends to watch tv too, they are basically calling you bro and declaring friendship.
and if they really love and trust you, they’ll turn their back on you and go to sleep. they’ll sleep facing a wall in your presence, or lounge where they can’t see the room. this isn’t a snub, folks, this is true kitty love. they’re saying, “i feel safe when you’re around. i know nothing’s going to sneak up on me, because you’re here. i feel so safe i can stick my head under a pillow and snore with my butt pointed at you.”
farts aren’t an expression of love, though, as far as i know. they’re just farts.
