right. so can you please LIKE OR REBLOG THIS ( OR SEND A CARRIER PIGEON JUST MAKE IT KNOWN!! ) if you’re okay with having threads with people who PLAY THE SAME CHARACTER AS YOU and would like to have threads with them because twin threads/time travel theads have so muc potential but most people don’t like interacting with duplicates of their muses and I want to do things with you guys that are okay with it!!!
there isn’t a cat in his armor. what? no. you’re hearing things. and he’s sweating. suits of armor don’t sweat, but alphonse elric does when there’s a cat in his chest cavity, WHICH THERE ISn’T.
|| ♔ || Ling shifts at the sudden noise. It sounded like…a cat? He scans the surroundings; no felines in sight. He’d mark it off as hearing things if it wasn’t for Alphonse. If suits of armour could have expressions, Al’s would be turning purple with guilt.
| ♛ | “Why thank you, sir. Now, do you go around complimenting random women or am I just special?”
|| ♔ || Ling shrugs. “Not so much that. There are also a lot of pretty ladies where I come from; you find that it’s too much work to compliment them all. You gotta pick the ones that are special. Besides, your hair is nice. It’d be a shame to not say something about it.”
“Going in together sounds like a good idea! Strength in numbers right? ‘sides, he might be a li’l more lenient with me if you’re there.” Mustang was fair, but she didn’t quite expect the feud between her and the teacher to all the sudden disappear just because she needed a favor. Having Ling come with her when she asked for extra credit would probably help quite a bit, she doubted that he would deny her it if Ling was there and he would provide it to him.
A laugh, before she took a sip of her water bottle, “It’s lookin’ like a real good option isn’t it? I like it enough. Teachin’ in the science department doesn’t sound too bad, ‘specially since it’s my best subject. Though it would mean putting up with Mustang every day…”
|| ♔ || Ling takes out a tin of fruits, spearing one with his fork. He’d forgotten to pack a sandwich today; he might have to buy pizza. The thought has him barely repressing a shudder - cafeteria pizza! The very idea makes Ling’s skin crawl. Still, if Mustang will be willing to give him extra credit, Ling would happily buy ten dry, crusty pizzas.
“We’ll corner him after the next class or something. Shouldn’t be too hard if we dawdle until everyone else is gone. I just hope no one else gets the same idea.” He laughs and swallows a piece of melon. “Mustang or no Mustang, it would suit you. You get to yell at people who are doing their experiments wrong. That’s gotta be pretty cathartic, right?”
“It’s possible. Then again, a good deal of my stories are only funny to me.” She set her bowl down, sliding it to the far side of the table, away from the young man’s reach (for the most part).
“Just what kind of story are you interested in hearing?”
|| ♔ || Ling spares the woman’s bowl a stray glance before turning back to her. It’s not that he isn’t interested in the food (he’s always interested in food), it’s that he’s far more interested in the information she has.
“Iheard that alchemy is very big in this country. I’m doing some research on it, so if you could tell me an alchemy story I’d be very grateful.”
Hello! Nice to meet you, I’m Caine. Just a couple guidelines here:
♔ All questions are welcome.
♔ Muse is of age, mun is not. Please do not start a thread involving sexual themes.
♔ Mun has a severe phobia of bugs, especially arachnids. This isn't likely to happen anyway, but just to make sure, please don’t send me pictures/detailed descriptions of bugs, and please, please tag your bugs. I will unfollow. If you’re uncertain of whether something bug-involved will be okay or not, don’t hesitate to ask.
♔ Always accepting headcanons, memes, and drabble requests! Seriously, mun loves memes like nothing else.
♔ Random starters, crossovers and such are welcome. Please don’t be shy or hesitate to contact me.
♔ Unless otherwise specified, my starters and opens will generally be for mutuals only. But, you can definitely make a starter for me! We don't have to be mutuals for that.
♔ Please don’t be rude. Don’t godmod my muse, don’t force ships, don’t drop off the thread without briefly notifying me first. Thanks :-)
♔ I do ship Lingfan, but even then I ship chemistry above all others, meaning no pre-established romantic relationships, please.
♔ Please tag all contact as iinvxctus. I tag all contact; it’s just easier to keep track of.
♔ Being semi-selective and private, I will not always follow back. We don’t have to be mutuals to start a thread though, so don't be shy - we can plot anytime! Just come into my inbox and ask.
♔ Concrit is always welcome! This is a no hate blog - let's try to be nice to everyone, okay?
♔ OOC Skype is available to select mutuals; just ask.
♔ No RPing through an ask meme. Please just copy & paste the content into another post - it's so much more convenient that way.
♔ Exclusivity is fine with me, shoot me an ask and we'll work it out.
♔ If you need a specific tag for something don’t hesitate to tell me. And if I forget, just nag until I get it done.
♔ ♔ ♔ Ling Yao accepted Greed into his body as a conduit to the Philosopher's Stone at Greed's core, and fought with Greed's soul for dominance of his body. He has the ability to transmute carbon, creating an impenetrable shell from his skin - the Ultimate Shield.
♔ Ling's soul sometimes overpowers Greed, but it never lasts. Sometimes they even combine their powers in battle, switching sides effortlessly until you can't tell which face is human and which is not.
♔ Being the personification of the sin which he was named for, Greed claims to want everything in the world, but nothing can ever satisfy him. The only thing that Greed really wants is friendship, because friendship cannot be taken - it has to be earned.
Ling is a child prince, living in his homeland of Xing. At first glance his life seems idyllic: luxury, royalty, loyal bodyguards, what more could you want? But among plots, treachery, and assassination attempts, the twelfth prince is learning every day just how cruel the Emperor's court can be.
♔ Amestris:
After an arduous journey across the desert, Ling has finally arrived in Amestris, along with his bodyguards, Lan Fan and her grandfather Fuu. He smells blood - the goal is the Philosopher's Stone, the key to immortality, which will ensure that Ling is made the heir to become Emperor. However, something about this country isn't right...
♔ Homunculus:
This is my choice. Don't try to stop me! This is...this is what I want!
Ling accepts the homunculus Greed into his body in order to have access to the Philosopher's Stone. He lets Greed take control, but inside Ling waits for the opportunity to strike. This is the only way; he must honor Lan Fan's sacrifice. It's his chance, and he'll grab it with both hands - even if it means becoming a monster.
♔ To be a King:
At last, back home to Xing, with a little sister and the Stone in tow. Ling is named the heir to the throne. The weight of Fuu's death, combined with new responsibility, must make the idealistic young man grow up quickly. The Emperor's seat awaits.
