Children of the Gods (Important poll #12306)

Look like we have same interests @potouto :v: ( but what about mc?)and I get the joke​:wink:

@gia, well if MC is written ooc by their adoring fans prior to meeting them, then peeps just might change the premise to self-insert x ________ for RPF :)) or just go “welp this is how we imagined them, surprise surprise”

Personally hoping for an Ember Island worthy kind of fic tbh :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Are there any ROs that would actually enjoy an indirect route during a confession? Because right now, all I can picture is all of them acting in a way that pretty much tells the Bearer “Try that again :pensive:” I just can’t really picture any RO enjoying an indirect answer when they may want a clear answer about the Bearer’s feelings. I mean, I would have a Bearer be indirect with Santiago, but that’s so I can annoy that arrogant ego of his.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :joy:

Coughs …I mean, it seems the Bestower will be a difficult one romance, if he holds a good deal of unawareness to a possible romantic bond growing in some way (beginning to see why have the Bearer being innocent to romantic moments would have been difficult thing to write: can you imagine TWO romantically oblivious characters trying to court each other :laughing:?). Wonder what type of way he acts when he becomes romantically interested in someone.

…Now I’m starting to think he and Saint will be the ones to ruin potential romantic moments with their obliviousness.

I need to know how all the ROs would react to see the Bearer with a large amount of fan letters, most of them being love letters. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

I can definitely see Adonis being in a bad mood at the very sight of the letters and trying to draw the Bearer’s attention away from the letters and back on him (in a sneaky way, as Cally would probably put it). Santiago is probably too cocky to feel bothered about them and would actually read the funniest ones with the Bearer. Avery may get a little bothered by them, but she’d probably be one of the ones mature enough to acknowledge that it was bound to happen once people got over their fear of the Bearer. Sage might get really snarky with the Bearer about their rise to popularity, hit something, and be in an even worse mood than Adonis (and not be as subtle about it). Aeson, with his own possible experience, may give the Bearer advice on how to deal with them, but feel slightly annoyed by how easily people will claim to love the Bearer (and not fully know why).

Ironically, I can’t picture how Calypso would react to such letters; she may be impulsive and fierce, but she also comes off as confident and friendly. Maybe she would be fine with the letters to a certain extent, but be agitated by someone going physically up the the Bearer to do the confessions or make a move on the Bearer while she is around (if they’re feeling particularly daring; I certainly wouldn’t want to mess with Cally :sweat_smile:)

Aha, yes, he’s AeSON than Baeson for me, I don’t know why but all warrior hero characters are my precious sons, I need to stop D:

I’m actually almost done with Cally but I just can’t figure out the last quote, rip me. Also all the talk about fanfic can’t help me think any less about the glorifying fanfic of the Bearer, describing them as some kind of drop dead gorgeous brooder. And then…there is them, tiny, squeaky Bearer who’s still quiet but actually nice and calm. So small, so tiny. Yes, one of my two main Bearers is very smol

Eh, honestly, in story the whole thought of people shipping and writing fanfiction for the Bearer×Bestower and stuff is actually pretty creepy…moreso when MC feels absolutely no romantic attraction to Aeson…but even when they end up as couple it’s somewhat creepy…

What brings up all the upsides of the Bearer/Bestower being famous…how many stalkers do you think Aeson had to deal with by now in his life? Eh, my poor Bearer is not ready for something like that… Battle Royale with the other demigods sounds not so bad anymore in comparison.

Welp, not sure how that’s going to go over well with my discrete Bearer. Being direct with Aeson just brings a lot of unwanted attention that just makes everything uncomfortable :disappointed_relieved: I mean, for the dance I simply made eye contact with him since that’s the way the Troy!Bearer got the prince’s attention; with a simple gesture.

I would like to know this to o.o

Honestly, any discussions abt jealous Adonis are discussions I enjoy :disappointed_relieved:. He has his fair share of fans, it’ll be interesting to see how a Bearer that’s interested in him can respond to them. LMAO, the idea of Santiago reading them and being like, ‘tht one’s good, we’re keeping tht one’, is amusing. I want to see how the ROS might handle the Bearer being approached by infatuated fans in front of them, though I doubt anyone would find smth like that entertaining regardless of individual relationship dynamics. It seems like it’d be generally aggravating/upsetting, imo.
Cue the Bearer opening their first envelope and reading in abject horror while Haris wonders why they’ve suddenly blanched. The irony probably won’t be lost on the Bearer, seeing as just months before they were openly feared (though it’s understandable why that is).

Yes, I agree in that it’s mad creepy. I have a hard time thinking anyone would be flattered, were they in the Bearer’s position. Poor Aeson, he’s probably developed some degree of passivity to all the fanfare, but that doesn’t make it any less unsettling. My Bearers are both very charming, so if letters are going to be smth we see within the scope of the game, they’re both going to be more disconcerted than flattered.

Something related to Artemis?

Who is the cutie you used as Santiago’s model there?
Yeah, Santiago is definitely the most interesting of the guys our age, but unfortunately my mc in this game is too hurt and traumatized himself to put up with defrosting his ice prince personality and his general spoiled rich kid antics.

@Sammysam @gia definitely creepy but that has never stopped anyone tbh :)) (looks at One Direction, like holymoles they have 47k worth of fanfic in AO3 alone). If anything the MC might have to put up with people making up wild stories about them during their time on the run, with a few being romantic in nature – complete with a redemption arc. But mostly: IS IT TRUE YOU TOOK ON A HOARD OF SEEKERS AND PULVERIZED THEM BY JUST BURPING

@Okami-Nora ooooh those look plausible. Very plausible. I honestly wonder if Baeson might also have an insecure side beneath the confident hero he seems to be.

Isn’t he already tell the mc?

How many times has “Aeson is clueless” been quoted? I’m getting “You know nothing, Jon Snow” flashbacks.

There’s a “mega” fan; just one. They show up after the first Trial, actually; but they don’t speak until part two.

My MC would probably proceed with entering a lottery or something…

Did some doodling of my Middle Eastern Bearer, Pan, last night:

[details=Summary]


This is back during his life on the road when he was smuggling artifacts. He’s a pacifist who’s pretty calm and reserved, but not really shy.

Don’t ask me why has a super long arm. The reference I was using was of a guy with a long torso so the arm was somewhat in proportion with him, except I drew Pan a but more in proportion so that arm just looks weird, but I couldn’t bring myself to fix it >.>;[/details]

I thought so too, something like Artemis’ hunter but after getting word of god, I got another one as you can see below aha

Vini Uehara <3 He’s a cutie, aye. There are many options but somehow I think Santiago would have a look that’s both cute and playful while being confident…I think I failed him big time but hoo boy.

As for his character, yes, I agree he’s very interesting even among the cast we already have. I don’t know if any of either of my Laveis will end up with him or not, since of them is heavily leaning toward Sage because masochism smacked and the other is…well, probably not here for the romance.

I think, I failed Calypso…I deserve to be kicked for she’s so beautiful and I did not do her justice. Time to put down my tablet and retire from graphic designing, I have One Job. Anyway, anyway, is it time for Sage yet or should I do Saint first? Or maybe Avery? I can always do Ni Lavei. Hmm, decision…

Well we have to deal with one very annoying one already, Haris, though I guess they are more of a spy then a stalker per se.

True, unfortunately this mc of mine is not up for defrosting an ice prince or dealing with spoiled rich-kid antics. :unamused:
