YOU’RE JOKING. HE’S A VAMPIRE?!?!?!???
So you mean to tell me this motherfucker gets two huge dragon dicks AND gets to be a vampire? Where is the fairness in this?
I hope mister winner of the genetic lottery dies horribly, like damn leave some 30 year olds for the rest of us dude.
what did i do, what did i do (to get my mind stuck on you)
[Kieran/MC, (implied) Sylus/MC ★ 1.2k words ★ Masterlist ★ AO3] So, the mask stayed on—figuratively. Literally. A/N: Somehow somebunny's fault /LH jk I really don't know know where this came from, but I started writing one afternoon……. and yeah <3 Tag List: beneath cut 【 request to be added 】
Without realizing it, Kieran smiled at her, though no one would ever see that brief joy that remained hidden behind his mask.
They had both let the impossible happened. A secret that never should have formed now existed between them both.
She belonged to no one, but she was meant for someone.
Not him.
Could never be him.
Stuck in this wrong time, wrong place, they could only be thieves, stealing looks and moments, and if they were bold, a kiss or two, but nothing more. Never more.
@darkeskye this the one.
KIERAN. MY LOVE.
So we’re just choosing to rip my heart out today? Yeah, no, that’s cool. THIS IS ALL JUST A WARM UP FOR SYLUS’ MYTH.
I am OBSESSING over these stolen moments together and I am SO FREAKING stoked we got the added tie in of the shared senses that the twins have.
But my poor baby, thinking he doesn’t deserve her or “love” in general. OOOOOOOOH this burns so good. Him trying to convince himself this was just physical and nothing emotional. You can literally see him falling for her and yet doing everything in his power to wall off his heart because he knows he can’t have her.
Then him watching her walk off with Sylus, laughing, and wondering if she’ll steal a glance back at him. UGH!!!! My heart! And then THIS DAMN LINE…
He smiled, something akin to heartbreak.
Oh ok. AND THEN I WAS SHOT 99 TIMES.
Alright people. It's time to start freaking out about Sylus' myth dropping in the next week. I may have read through all Sylus' cards again today to make notes on my thoughts lol. So we all know the trend is MC dying in the 3 myths. So it's no surprise we're all expecting her to die again in Sylus' upcoming myth. But the more I think about it, the more I'm convinced we're gonna see her dying directly BECAUSE of Sylus. I can't decide yet whether I think it's because he couldn't save her in time, or because he loses control and accidentally kills her (aether core). But there are so many easter eggs that I don't think it's because she sacrifices herself for him the way she did for Zayne and Rafayel.
Spiderma—I mean Sylus has shown an obvious knee-jerk panicked reaction to MC falling. Not only that, but this year there has been an on-going theme of them falling together constantly. (which could also be a nod to the whole "fallen angel/deity" theory). So I feel like there could be two things wrapped in here.
1. There is a potential for something happening to MC in this 3rd myth that reminds Sylus of her falling and him not catching her (could be when/how they got ripped apart by the deepspace tunnel) >>>
(This is from the end of Sylus’s part in Death and Rebirth. Also note that it specifically says “capable of tearing apart any form of energy”—Sylus’ evol is energy manipulation.)
2. All this falling shit is a direct pointer to his "fall from grace".
All the falling scenarios:
Beyond Cloudfall: MC falls off the edge of a cliff and Sylus freaks out and dives to save her. (This is a little more, no duh, as anyone would have a similar response to someone falling off a cliff ledge, but it's just adding to the falling theme)
Valleydream Bloom: The classic scene where he holds MC as they free-fall into the flowers.
Where Hearts Live: She falls and he catches her, and you see his face look worried af for a second thinking she got hurt before he morphs back into his typical smug self.
Lovespeed Ride: She almost falls off the jet ski and he catches her, once again, has that look of fear for a second before quickly masking and playing it off.
Alternative Darkborne: He deliberately grabs her wrist before they jump/fall off the edge of the crumbling church to ensure she's safe in his arms. (more on this card in particular later)
Improvised Flow: This is more subtle, 'blink and you'll miss it', unless you slow down the kindled. When he and MC are in the dressing room and she turns to see who turned off the lights, she trips and falls backwards. If you slow it down frame by frame you'll notice Sylus has this quick flash of worry/fear in his eyes as he catches her and spins them mid-fall so she lands on top of him. It's less dramatic than his birthday card and is hidden under the layers of steamy vibes that are going on, but it's there nonetheless. ALSO, this might be reaching a bit, but in all 5 dances, Sylus is the only one who is putting MC in deep dipping (falling) positions where he is what is solely holding her up. Not once, not twice, but three times. Call me crazy, but I don't think that's coincidence.
Other interesting tidbits:
Nightplumes: When releasing the dove that he took care of for MC, she mentions "...I’ve noticed that whenever you want to protect something, you always make sure to protect it well." Sylus follows up with "You think too highly of me." but then covers with some snark saying he's not a philanthropist, to which MC states she doesn't care, because she doesn't need his protection. Sylus' response is, "...really? *pause* Heh, it's for the best." INTERESTING. So Sylus, are you saying that because of guilt?
Also, while there are other really good theories surrounding some Norse mythology (Odin/Loki type vibes), I still am leaning more towards the fallen angel/deity. The feather motifs that I initially thought were all kinda a crow-themed vibe with Mephie, now make me think this has more to do with his possible wings. Another interesting thing that makes me wonder about the "fallen" aspect is the ornament Sylus gifted MC during the Touring in Love event. Have you noticed that the feathers inside are white, but when you click the jar for the interactive feature, they turn black as they swirl? Light->Dark? Is this representative of his fall or is it symbolism for MC's white feathers and Sylus' black ones? (her wedding dress encorporating white feathers)
There are other, more in-your-face signs too, like Sylus' famous line, "A gentle touch is an alluring trap that can lead to your fall from grace," or him literally calling himself a demon at the claw machine.
Another line, "...you are my unforgivable sin in the fabric of eternity." In the new world underneath update, love is seen as a grave sin in Philosian law. "Emotions are poisonous seeds of desire." So it makes you wonder if this 3rd myth is set even before he was a dragon, and that after he "sinned" he was cast out and cursed with the aether core that gives him so many problems to this day. We know now that he struggles to control the feelings of intense desire and greed the aether core gives him, and as a dragon, he was cursed to eventually go mad and kill the person he fell in love with. So after he sinned by giving in to his emotions... was he cursed to feel them so much that it drove him to madness until he consumed them?
Now back to Alternative Darkborne. This was heavy on symbolism in general. Obviously the church was a callback to his dragon myth, but I think it's very telling how they set everything up. They literally fall from a church/cathedral that is lit in an ethereal manner and fall to a place below that has more of a dark shadowy vibe. Also, the camera pans back up at the end of the scene to look up at the sky, as if to remind you they just fell from above.
And then we have Mephisto... short for Mephistopheles. In countless legends, Mephistopheles is seen as the Devil's messenger/agent/worker and is a demon himself.
Last thought, in Death and Rebirth we see him pulling MC out of the crumbling research center and he appears to have wings. And I don't feel like it's just metaphorical.
Also, anyone find it funny that Lucifer/Satan was once an angel that defied god and was cast out of heaven to become the devil and then was depicted in biblical references (book of Revelation) as a dragon?
IDK, I'm just spitballing brain leakage now, and once the myth actually comes out watch it be completely different lol. Which is why I think it could still be a “fallen” theme but maybe not an angel but some bird-like humanoid creature. Especially with all the bird/wing/feather designs on his clothes. I have a bunch of other tie ins to this theme but some are a little more of a stretch so I didn’t include them. Regardless, I'm so freaking excited and need this trailer drop YESTERDAY.
I’m just reposting this and skimming cuz you know, don’t wanna spoil things for myself when I play the game and all. Yeahhhh that’s it.
Obviously this myth is going to talk about why Sylus chose to make Mephisto cuz like birds and feathers and flying and stuff. That is my completely educated guess.
The onboarding phase for Onychinus has to be brutal. Sylus makes it harder because you’re his partner. You don’t take handouts, and you don’t want people thinking you got hired just because you screw the boss (even though, essentially…yeah). All the training and desensitizing you go through just to be a secretary or an IT specialist is amplified.
“Sylus, why do I need to know how to flay a man alive just to troubleshoot your comms?”
“Versatility, sweetie. You never know when you’ll be called to do more than correct an upside-down screen.”
Exhausted from yet another shift at a thankless job that would replace you in a heartbeat, you drag yourself into your apartment.
Your eyes burn from straining them, staring at monitors all day. Your wrists are sore, fingers cracking when you flex them, shoulders tight. Your teeth have been clenched for most of the day—they usually are when dealing with ornery customers and your coworkers who you’re sure couldn’t navigate their way out of a tunnel with glowing arrows pointing towards the exit.
THE THINGS I WOULD DO. THE SHIT I WOULD CUT OFF MY BODY AND SELL. JUST…. Just please… please I just want one chance. 😫 I wanna work for Onychinus so damn bad.
I always appreciate kitties in my stories. I’m such a cat lover that I’m instantly like—SQUIRREL—ooh! A kitty in this story!!!! I’m fwopping my feets around like a happy little urchin child lol.
BUT CAN WE JUST TALK ABOUT SYLUS’ ENTRANCE????? I LOVE THIS DESCRIPTION. I think people take for granted that since Sylus’ evol is energy manipulation… it’s going to literally affect the molecular makeup of your spatial surroundings. You’ll literally FEEL it when he does things because he can manipulate molecular structure. So this made me SO giddy to get such an impressive description of him just appearing. Because I absolutely think it would feel like this. It’d be very off putting and probably almost give you an anxious feeling. 1. Just due to the dynamics of his evol, but 2. Because of his demon-like aura. We know he feeds on souls (protocores) so his aura is very likely a very demonic feel. Obviously you’d get used to it eventually and see it as familiar feeling instead of scary af, but it’d probably always feel a little… jump scary.
LURVE this and I’d also like to take a ticket to join. Where is the application sign up? I have skills! Does Onychinus need medical personnel??? 🙋🏻♀️ hehe
lol what would you do with an application?

Would I be a diversity hire since I’m Korean? Or is that not a thing there. I too am an orphan, do I get to sleep with MC as well or is that just the twins who get that privilege…
I NEED TO KNOW
This may sound harsh to some people (even though it's truly not), so if you don't wear big girl/boy/adult/dragon/whatever panties, just keep scrolling.
But, if you post anon in someone's inbox and tell them you missed them/their work....
Bullshit.
And before people get all bent out of shape talking about shyness and social anxiety... lemme explain to you why this comes across as "bullshitty".
There is a time and place where it's more understandable to show up anon, like for a request or something. But there are very few reasons to be anonymous when you're merely telling someone you think their work is great, or that you missed seeing them in the space.... Unless, maybe, you're scared you'll out yourself for being one of the non-supporting consumers who led them to give up in the first place. Because if you did support them, it would have been public on your blog, so why are you suddenly posting anon now? See what I mean?
Nope. Don't look at me like that. Holding up a mirror isn't mean. Uncomfortable, maybe. But it's not mean or bitchy. And if the shoe doesn't fit, great!
Listen, I have hella anxiety too and have felt that inhibition to interact for fear of being annoying/weird/disliked/scared/you name it. That's not what we're talking about here.
Stay with me, angry keyboard warriors.
Imagine creating art or writing for thousands of people who enjoy your shit yet never interact, but the second you're gone or stop pumping content out, they're complaining about it or at least talking about it. It takes a ton of effort and work for creators to make content AND ONLY HITTING A LIKE BUTTON HERE IS TRASH so don't act like you're a supporter if all you do is click the ❤️.
No one is saying you have to comment and reblog every single fucking thing people create. Obviously, you won't like everything they put out. But c'mon guys.
Do. Better. And if you're truly that scared or uncomfortable interacting in comments or with notes in the tags, you literally don't even have to write anything. Just hit reblog. That way, you're at least supporting your favorite creators and pushing their work out to more viewers.
Commenting and reblogging so she doesn’t hurt me.
You bury your face into your pillow, groaning softly at how ridiculous your thoughts sound.
Sylus shifts slightly behind you, sensing the minute change in your demeanor. His voice is a sudden rumble of amusement and comfort, so scarily close to your ear, you jolt like you’ve been caught doing something naughty.
Can you change his accent like Siri? Give ole boy a British accent and ask him for the weather. His only response every time is going to be “wet”.

Tumblr’s going to eat the quality again, but 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️ Cleaned it up on the PC for the contest and added a smidge more. This is all @deepspacenova @blessdunrest @unknown-ends and @darkeskye’s faults for blowing my head up too big. Trigger warning for flashing lights!
I’ve never been so feral for Caleb content in my life. WHO SAID THAT
WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME?!????? YOU DON’T SEE ANY OF THIS. I am NOT SCREAMING.
Im telling Sylus and Zayne on both of you.
This is all I wanted. Okie, night/morning, y’all.
DHSIWGWCEKGIFUWVDPFFTTFFFF FUCK ITS HUGE 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s a pretty fancy flower turban you got there
idol rafayel having a wardrobe malfunction while performing onstage with you so you try help fix it while still doing the choreo but he gives you a wink so you just go with it and rip his shirt open completely while the crowd loses their mind
Idol sylus purposely creating a 2-in-1 outfit for you where your cocktail dress unfurls into a layered gown, sparkling rubies blinding everyone in the crowd. At a snap of his fingers, the lights turn off, and the rhinestones on his jacket glow brighter than any flame known to mankind.
"Eyes on me, kitten."
idol zayne noticing a fan collapse mid-set and stops the show without missing a beat. He vaults off the stage, headset still on, kneeling beside them as he instantly switches roles. Immediately recognizing the signs of hypoglycemia and confirming his diagnosis with the fan’s friend, he yells for backstage staff to get his snacks from his dressing room.
idol zayne staying with the fan—despite them assuring him they’re okay—until the event paramedics file down the rows of seats and take over.
idol zayne restarting the song, and as the chorus swells, raising his hand and turning the entire arena into a giant sized, glittering snowglobe. (Effectively cooling the thousands of overheated fans better than any A/C)
Kieran and Mephisto sitting up in the girders dropping random little shit on peoples head to see if anyone notices. Luke tied to the girders because he almost fell off.
I had to think of an Ateez song for Zaynie… and after much thought… it’s this one.
Tell me I’m wrong. 😮💨
Reblogging because I was pretty much threatened with death.

Oh what the hell—
INFOLD. STOP GIVING MY MEN MORE ABSURD THINGS TO SHOW UP IN THE CAFE WITH. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Classic example of just because you can doesn’t mean you should.
@blessdunrest you put this in my head, and now it’s stuck.
The twins in the center of the cuddle pile, Sylus and Zayne flanking them, for nap time.
Grooming sessions where Zayne and Sylus have to hold the twins still and nip them so they can clean them while the boys flail around.
Finding Sylus and Zayne curled up in the cat tree with their tails twined together, forming a heart shape.
Luke tangled up in the string for the blinds.
Kieran, shoving his face into one of your house shoes, pops out with his little cat mouth hinged open as he commits your scent to memory.
When they’re too affectionate, you lock them out of the bedroom so you can get some sleep. You end up letting them all back in anyway because they keep scratching at the door, shoving their little paws under the slit, and yowling until you wake up.
You let them outside a few times to get some fresh air. Sylus stays lounging in the shade because the sun vexes him. Zayne brings you a bird he caught because he notices you haven’t eaten (or that you’re too stupid to hunt for yourself). The twins bring you something shiny they stole from the neighbor’s house.
Sylus has somehow become the leader of all the neighborhood cats. He knows all the underground routes like the back of his paw because he has kitty goblins everywhere (bonus if they’ve all somehow been affected by the same affliction).
Zayne grooms you when you’re sad, licking your hair until he’s satisfied it’s saturated with saliva. Sylus sits on your lap, his purr motor seemingly broken as he tries his best to “heal” you. Luke flops onto his back, exposing his belly to you only to nom on your fingers and sink his claws into your hand when you fall into his trap. Kieran bunts his little cranium against your fingers, marking you with his scent and trying his best to cheer you up.
The cat chirps. They communicate with each other in a way you can’t understand that’s inherently unique to cats. But it’s fun watching them get into little spats while Sylus sits at the center of it, tail swishing irritably. You don’t have to speak cat to know he’s done with everyone’s shit.
They follow you from room to room, piling at your feet when you sit down to use the potty. Luke and Kieran are scared, meowing and trying to save you from the “evil water” when you lounge in the bathtub.
Speaking of water, there’s Sylus giving you the silent treatment after you bathed him ‘cause he got into one of your potted plants and stained his gorgeous fur with soil.
The trilling and purring never stop when you give them wet food. Thank god it’s not that shitty kibble. They will go on strike before eating it again.
Waking up to Zayne tapping your nose to make sure you’re still breathing. He has a mini heart attack each time you sleep, thinking you’ve passed away (cats apparently freak out when we sleep because they think we’re dead so they’ll check to see if we’re still breathing).
Also waking to Sylus at the foot of the bed, scarlet eyes aglow in the darkness, wide and terrifying, staring at you (he’s guarding you, he swears it).
Everyone losing their shit when you come home after being gone the entire day. For you, it’s a few hours. For them, it’s a lifetime.
Two kitties on either side of you. One on your chest, vibrating with contentedness. The other is at your feet, slow blinking, but watching the door. They rotate positions throughout the night like soldiers on guard. They might not be themselves, but they’ll still protect you with the nine lives they’re afforded in this state.
You whip out the cat wand, and Sylus is absolutely mortified. You find said wand later ripped to shreds with the iridescent feathers covered in vomit and fur (he ate them and regurgitated them as a ‘fuck you’).
Let someone at Lux forget their place and hit on you because they think the four men have abandoned you. Hell will be unleashed in the form of claws, bites, and skippity paps (Sylus orchestrated it all, standing amid the chaos like a king swallowed by fire).
How bold of you to think any of them have anywhere near 9 lives left.
