@miserytheapprentice “Wormman had a really ‘wriggly’ song 😏, but I *ahem*Syl, prevented me from posting it. FYI he doesnt come second to anyone. Okay, no everyone comes second to Asra tbh. PS. What music represents you, and Wormery?” -Elle

Zarco Fe

1. Theme song? Maybe? La Bocina - Jaime Ley

https://open.spotify.com/track/7H6VIUDKPxXUa9dWJfjzeW?si=Peq7Hj1WTYymv8OfWBbmIw

2. This song would be playing on his little radio when you first meet him in his magic shop, as he not subtly dances to it while cleaning. Colombia Tierra Querida - Lucho Burmudez

(via https://open.spotify.com/track/3DwedX467tabb9zUzdqfcq?si=vT5vaEo0Tza9wBJonJNBow)

3. El Baile del Kkoyaruna - Pascuala Ilabaca y Fuana. I absolutely recommend you watch the video and read the description of what the song is about. It isn’t really a ‘jam’, but a song that Zarco holds close to his heart.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCjXOKL6FKo

4. Zarco and Nadia

Still thinking on it, will update when I got it.

BONUS LI: Zarco and @chrysanthemoonteadrink‘s Syl, winding down after a day of travelling, in a warm lit tavern and inn. Tu si Sabes Quereme - Natalia Lafourcade

https://open.spotify.com/track/1FeHSvqRHOBjONQiqVB46e?si=b5OZT6evQECs8ZucKNlFcA

5. A song similar to the song Luna Fe, Zarco’s mother would sing as a lullaby to him and his siblings when the night was dark and the stars were out. Tonada De Luna Llena - Simon Dias

https://open.spotify.com/track/7epe37kYbhgDxaBUQOaHgx?si=pGM5qvtGQJik64bRl6MhEw

Min Jie Shufen

1. Theme song? Maybe? 老王樂隊｜這樣就好 這樣就好 Good, it would be good 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CbAcHFXJ8c

2. I think Min Jie’s father would be sing something similar to this, usually at the end of the day by the waterside as the sun set. It’s something that Min Jie looks back on fondly. They were close to each other. 草東沒有派對 No Party For Cao Dong - 大風吹 Simon Says

https://open.spotify.com/track/48oUsw9LrmRT7paajfxU77?si=C5bSM1BzQla_5pjon9Hdsg

3.  He’d totally be into this type of music and genre.  老王樂隊｜那些失眠的夜與難以忘懷的事 Sleepless nights and haunting memories

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLgSrAOmVAw

4. LI Asra. Min Jie was a kid who grew up on lullabies, and he most certainly sings many songs to Asra as he holds him when he’s having a hard night. Good luck making him sing out in public though.  Devotion Ending Theme - No Party For Cao Dong

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vU3TV7mRWQ

@chrysanthemoonteadrink “Such a peaceful and wonderful song you picked, I could sleep to it. I in fact also have a song for us, it has been in my head since I met you. I would translate all of it, though I believe the first few verses explain it all. What do you think?” - Zarco :

Send me a number and I’ll answer the question about my apprentice! Please note that these are meant to go a little in-depth and I kinda made them so they’d be answered in little ficlets! (shoutout to this for helping me develop some of the questions)

1) Your apprentice was brought along to one of the masquerades with a friend, who promptly ditched them ten minutes into it. What happened? How do they react?

2) Does your apprentice get flustered over anything? What make them flustered? Do they turn red? Stumble over words?  

3) How would your apprentice handle being so close to something that they desperately want, only to have it ripped away? What was it?

4) Talk about your Apprentices’ self-esteem

5) What’s one physical flaw about themselves that they hate? Do they have a reason for hating it?

6) Do they have a personality shift depending upon certain people? Who does it change for and how so?

7) Talk about your apprentices’ backstory. How did they end up with the shop? What’s their relationship (or lack thereof) with their parents? Traumatic childhood maybe?

8) How does your apprentice express affection? Outwardly? More subtle-like?

9) Does your apprentice have any special abilities that you headcanon and cannot be accurately expressed in the actual game? What are they?

10) What does their living space look like? Is the shop messy or clean?

11) Talk about how your apprentice deals with emotions. Both the ones they like to feel, and what they don’t like to feel.

12) What happens when your apprentice feels upset?

13) What’s your apprentice like when sad? Do they get really depressed? Have they ever hurt themselves out of sadness?

14) A small hand-mirror has been sold to your apprentice. When they look into it, it shows their greatest fear come to life – conscious or subconscious. What is it and how does your apprentice react?  

15) What does their daily diet look like on a normal day? Do they fast? If they fast, is it out of their control?

16) Does your apprentice have any scars or tattoos? Where are they? Describe them?

17) Can they bear pain? How much pain can they bear? Do they hate it or do they like it ala our good Doctor?

18) Do they like their living situation? Do they like living in Vesuvia and by the sea? Do they like the cold more or do they like it warmer?

19) Can your character cook? What’s their favorite thing to cook?

20) (NSFW) Does your character have any kinks? What are they? Have they ever been acted upon?

21) What’s their relationship history look like? What were their previous datemates like? Do they have a type?

22) Does your apprentice have a familiar? What is it and what’s their name? Do they talk to the apprentice? What’s their personality like?

23) Describe you apprentices’ humor.

24) Outside of magic-related workings, does your apprentice have any hobbies? Do others know about this hobby or do they keep it a secret?

25) What is the easiest way to annoy your apprentice? How do they react to being annoyed?

26) How does your apprentice sleep? Do they sleep with a ton of pillows and blankets or none? Do they toss and turn? Weird things they do in their sleep?

27) Due to the “memory issues” that permeate the game: does your apprentice ever experience déjà vu and they don’t know why? What triggered the déjà vu?

Liuyin

Tagging @malvinghlein​ @nazali-md​ and @nadiaportia​

Prompt of the day:

In your MC’s story, what is their reverse end?

I’ve always pictured Liuyin’s original arcana before being resurrected as The Fool as being the Death Arcana, and in the reversed ending, they’d use the same ritual the Devil is using to merge realms, but instead to become the Death Arcana itself by bringing what’s left of that Arcana over into the human world and absorbing it, breaking Valdemar’s chains/power, and effectively botching the ritual under the assumption that they could only send over one arcana a time, to the extent that the Devil is sealed back into the Arcana realm, which has the consequence of taking Liuyin along with it, as they’re now an Arcana as well.

However, all is not lost, as Liuyin, as an Arcana, is still able to speak through the tarot deck-- when the Arcana deck is used once more, everyone notices that the animal skull that Death originally was has now become a white-veiled and white-robed youth who looks just like Liuyin.

In Catulla’s reversed route, she would probably have, instead of growing into her own person, wallowed in her insecurities and one-sided affection for Lucio, to the extent that she thinks by going over to his side, she could either 1, help him become a better person, which in her state of mind/current mental health status she’s not equipped to do, or 2, get him to leave everyone else alone at the very least, as atonement for her abandonment of Julian and Nadia during the plague. While she hasn’t made deals with the Devil, she might have started doing so in her reversed ending-- or at the very least, made one.

If Lucio is exiled, she’ll probably make a final one that effectively Dorian-Grays them before leaving, which means that she’ll become a demon in the future with the weight of her deal, and leaves an open-ended question of whether or not she and Lucio can be redeemed or not, and if so, when and how it happens.

The Holy Fool is an in-progress Arcana fic set in a Vesuvia that is half-fantasy, half-noir. Keep updated on this account!

Character intros

Chapters

In a noir-alternate universe of the Vesuvia we know and love, the drowning of an unknown infant and disappearance of a hedonistic Count mark a descent into the secrets of the city by two young magical acolytes, a roguish doctor, and a daughter of the city’s elites.

As they unravel dark secrets around their pasts, they must race against the clock to prevent the Devil’s Court from enacting their nefarious plans to find the Holy Fool, a figure preserved in the city’s folklore whose blood is said to hold the secret to life itself.

Liuyin’s left ear had been both yelled off and pinched beyond sensation by the time Doctor Devorak returned, and they were pretty sure it was as red as a sunset by now. Luckily, Auntie Liya had grown weary of tormenting them for their impulsiveness and left to brew herself some tea in a huff, and Liuyin had retreated back into their own room, changing out of the funeral robes and veil, and into a casual set of clothing once more.

how do y’all get faceclaims
