Stealing Clothes!!
Been getting rid of some old clothes today and now I've got Genshin fluff on the brain, so have some silly headcanons below the cut about 'borrowing' clothes from some of my faves!
Characters: Ayato, Capitano, Childe, Dottore, Lisa, Pantalone, Pierro, Thoma, Yae Miko, Zhongli
Content: Gender neutral reader, platonic relationships with the characters (though could potentially be read as a little romantic knowing me), Pantalone refers to the reader as 'dear', reader has a shorter/smaller body type than the mentioned characters (simply because I do and that's how I project with my writing - if you'd like an alternate version, feel free to let me know and I'll do what I can :D
Word count: ~1,740
I've always found something really comforting about borrowing clothes from others so this will definitely be a self indulgent drabble about that!
Ayato's coat would be the perfect article to steal - he takes it off during long meetings and when he's training, leaving it neatly folded off to the side, just begging for you to steal it. It's long and the sleeves border on inconvenient, but it's made of a soft, cool material and smells like a mix of Ayato's perfumes and whatever Thoma uses to wash it. He'd be so sweetly surprised when he comes back to retrieve his coat, only for you to be wrapped up in it - his eyebrows would go up in that cutely shocked way as he stares for a few moments - you worry you're about to get scolded, but he quickly breaks into a warm smile and narrows his eyes as he leans down to button it up for you. "If you were getting cold, you could have just let me know, I would've been more than happy to send somebody to fetch you a coat."
Capitano is usually wearing some form of armour - it's like a safe shell for him to hide away in, he's like a big turtle. The rare times he's not, he layers himself up with sweaters and the like. In timelines where he's not just a possessed suit of armour, he rarely takes his helmet off, but when he does is the perfect opportunity to strike. It's heavy and cold, weighing you down awkwardly - it's overall not very pleasant to wear and you can't understand how he manages to see out of this thing, let alone fight in it. He'd furrow his brow as he spots you wearing it for the first time - he has kind of mixed feelings about his helmet, and seeing you willingly put it on, seemingly just for fun, baffles him a little. Secondary to the helmet, his sweaters and coats are always brilliant to steal - super comfy and cozy, made of really nice thick material that's still breathable. He's almost unnaturally stocky so even his tighter-fitting clothing would hang off your frame, making it all the more pleasant. He always seems a little confused, but not upset - if stealing his clothes is what makes you happy, by all means, go ahead.
Childe's scarf is a nice boon - it's so easy just to tug it off while he's walking by you or distracted with something. It's tattered, but super duper soft and cosy. It probably doesn't get washed as often as it should, but it's really nice, especially on cool days. The length means you can wrap it around your neck several times and nuzzle into it! So snug! Childe gets really confused the first few times, incessantly prodding and asking you why you stole it - it's a pretty sentimental item to him, but you two are close, so he supposes you can wear it... for now. Sometimes he may just adjust his scarf and offer one end to you - its length means you can both wear it at the same time as long as you're walking side-by-side! Eventually it'd just become a normal thing between you two, and you might find him borrowing some of your clothes or accessories in exchange.
Dottore has a myriad of interesting accessories and the like to borrow. That weird bird cloak thing is a definite candidate for stealing, it seems cool and fun, his mask too. Sadly he doesn't often take anything off or leave it laying around, even when he's just running around his lab, and if you try to 'steal' anything he sets down, you quickly find it snatched back and either put back on or put away - not because he doesn't want you to have it, he just doesn't seem to realise that's what you're aiming for. Stealing one of his lab coats, however, is easy peasy! Just a simple task of finding one hanging up in a closet somewhere and ta-da! Now you look like a real, bona fide mad scientist! Dottore's double take as he sees you walking around in the coat (so long it's almost dresslike on you) is almost comedic, he frowns behind his mask and tilts his head to the side like a curious bird. "What are you doing that for?" Will be his first question, soon to be followed by about a million more as he tries to figure out exactly what compelled you to wear his clothes specifically. There are also tons of weird/interesting things to fidget with in the pockets.
Lisa's hat is both stylish and comfortable. She occasionally takes it off just to fix up her hair, so that's always the best opportunity to snatch it away and put it on, especially on a nice sunny day, it protects your face and eyes from the sunlight. She probably thinks it's super cute and after the first time, she may take her hat off around you a little more often in hopes of goading you into 'borrowing' it again. She'll make sure it's sitting at just the right angle, cooing and fussing at how sweet you look, how she might just get you a similar hat for your next birthday!
Pantalone wears so much nice clothing, so many fancy expensive accessories and jewelry, it's hard to decide what you want to take! When he's in his own space, he tends to just leave things laying around - someone else can clean them up (unless you get there first of course!). Trying on his jewelry is quite fun, he has some really nice necklaces and earrings and rings (though the rings don't often come off, nor do the gloves). If he catches you, he smiles smugly and asks if you'd like your own replica of whatever it is you've been caught in. His dress shirts are also really, really nice - they're made of the finest fabric and are so extremely comfortable - they smell like expensive perfumes too. If you get caught in one of those, Pantalone gets pretty confused/almost flustered, and may offer to go fetch you a clean one. "Come now, dear, you don't want that one, I wore it for hours yesterday! It's filthy!" It is not filthy in the slightest. All he did yesterday was sit in his office. Though he breaks into a smug little grin as he realises that you specifically chose one he wore because that provides more comfort to you. He might tease you for that later, but for now, he's perfectly content to allow you to keep wearing it.
Pierro probably wears a lot of heavy cloaks and coats. They're absolutely brilliant to steal if you get the chance. If you see an opening, take it quick, Pierro will probably put his coat back on or fold it up and toss it over his arm or give it to a subordinate within moments. He gives you this absolutely baffled look as you snatch up his discarded cloak, exchanging a confused glance with the person he was about to hand it off to as he waits to see what you'll do with it. He gives you this analysing kind of look as you wrap it around your shoulders, snuggling your face into the soft, fur-lined collar. As you blink at him all innocently, he softens, just a little. His shoulders slump in acceptance as he shakes his head good-naturedly. It seems harmless enough.
Thoma is more than happy to share his clothing, he absolutely revels in it. If it gets even slightly chilly, he'll offer his jacket, even if you're already wearing a coat or something. It's super comfy, and he seems to like the fact that he was able to help you out (even if he's now getting cold). His dog tags are also an item of interest, but he never ever seems to take them off, so there's not really an opening there. The headband, however, he takes off every now and then just to mop the sweat off of his brow or fix up his hair - it's comfy and keeps your hair out of your eyes, and his happy laugh when he sees you wearing it is so sweet and genuine that you can't help but grin along with him!
Yae Miko doesn't really wear enough clothing for you to be able to steal (much to your chagrin). However, if you're very lucky, she may take off her headdress while you're around as she combs through her hair. The look she gives you as she sets the accessory down is almost expectant - she knows of your affinity for borrowing wearables from others, if anything this is her testing just how much you like her (she already knows you're going to take it though, of course she does). It's heavy and kind of awkward to put on yourself, and Miko definitely chuckles in amusement as she strides over to you, tapping the top of your head in a non-verbal instruction for you to tilt your head down so she can help you put it on as she makes a teasing comment. "You must truly look up to me to go so far as to want to dress up as me, hm?"
Zhongli. Coat. It's the coat, that's his signature accessory and he rarely ever takes it off. It's of gorgeous make and quality, and if you get the opportunity, you grab it right away and you RUN, this chance may never come again (/j). It's almost silky in texture and super comfy and cozy. There's a few inside pockets that he keeps things in (more along the lines of pens and notes and the like - there's no mora pouch to be found). He's more than happy to allow you to wear his coat (he would've let you borrow it earlier if he'd known how much you'd been eyeing it off), he's a little endeared by the sight, and will help you roll up the sleeves and do up the buttons, all the while going into one of his signature spiels, this time about some old folk tale surrounding energy and memories lingering in hand-me-down clothes. He runs his hands over your shoulders to smooth out the crinkled top of the coat and smiles warmly at you and delights in your quirks that are so sweetly human in nature.
This got a little longer/ramblier than I was anticipating, oops-- as always, feel free to add on or send requests/ideas! I'm not sure how good/accessible this post length is to some people, so if there's any feedback on that please feel free to let me know, I might start splitting it up into individual characters and just do a series instead?
Please don't copy, steal, repost or otherwise plagarise my work!

Calling Them By Real/Full Name.[MONDSTADT VER]
Warning: Pure Crack, a bit angst[on jean], jealous reader [jean], fluff [jean], you can see the fav, some characters real name spoiler.
Headcanon:- Calling someone you close/love by their full/real name can sometimes strike fear inside them. But sometimes calling their full/real name affectionately can make them melt inside.
Characters:- Diluc , Kaeya and Jean
Diluc:-
Once again, Diluc forgot about you two dinner nights to chase after some Fatui guys. You sit there on the Tavern chair seething in anger while Kaeya tries to calm you down.
“i-I’m sure he just wants to get you some flowers?” Kaeya smile nervously flinching in fear when you glare at him, “One more word, Kaeya. You going to wear two eyepatches.” You manage to shut the male.
Diluc enters the Tavern with a tired sigh, his expression twisting in displeasure when he sees Kaeya but brightening when he sees you. He seems ignorant at how a dark aura seeps out of you and the warning look Kaeya gives him.
“My love.” You cut him off with a dark smile, “  Diluc Ragnvindr.” The way Diluc's face becomes more pale hinting that he realizes his mistake, you jump out of the chair summoning out your weapon, “You going to meet you father-” Kaeya quickly wraps his arms around your torso lifting you from the floor yelling, “Diluc, ruun!!”
The red hair male does not need to be told twice, kicking down the tavern door he frantically throws himself out of the door to avoid your wrath, and perhaps this time he should stay out of regions for another year until you calm down [again].
Kaeya:-
You feel your eyebrows twitching in anger as you wait inside your boyfriend's office room waiting for him to come back from his so said patrol. Standing beside you are Traveler and Paimon, eyes still red from the crying. Early today the two come to you crying, complaining that Kaeya lies to them about some treasure and force them to become bait for some treasure thief.
Having a soft spot for the honorary knight and their companion, you decide to scold the male for them only to find out that the male is currently at Tavern drinking in the middle of the day and annoying his brother.
Your eyes snap at the door when it clicks open revealing your boyfriend, he smiles widely when he sees you but confused at the sight of the traveler and Paimon. 
“ Kaeya Alberich.” He went rigid at your tone, smiling nervously he take a step back only to let out a yelp when the door suddenly slam shut. You stand up from the chair summoning your weapon, “Say hi to crepus for me~”  
Lisa and Jean look up from their work when they hear the familiar scream of Kaeya, “And here you thought he learn his lesson.” Jean sighed.
Jean:-
She didn’t come back home, again. You sit on the couch in your shared home living room glaring at the clock on the wall, it’s already morning and another new day, and your fiance still hasn’t come home. It’s been a week and you start to think that the headquarter is her home rather than here.
It’s her idea for you two to move in together and now, she is the one who rarely comes home. She always says she is busy, with too much paperwork to do, then why did she have time to spend a day with Lisa than her lover.
The front door creaks open making your eyes snap toward the door revealing a very tired-looking Jean, she looks in your direction and smiles softly at the sight of you but you just click your tongue and look away from her, puffing your cheeks.
She looks confused at first, entering the house, she takes a seat beside you calling your name softly, and asks what’s wrong, “...Go spend more time with Lisa...” You grumble, “This is not your actual home, right..” She looks shocked at your words, looking at her lap guiltily she leans forward until her forehead hit your shoulder, you flinch at first but let her stay there.
When she see you didn’t move away from her, she wrap her arms around you leaving a soft kiss on your shoulder before snuggling her face on the croak of your neck. “J- Jean Gunnhildr!” You try to say her name in a stern tone but she just sighs liking the way you say her name, “Yes? “ She says your name back but instead of your last name, she put her last name onto it. You finally give in shifting around wrapping your arms around her bringing her close to you, Jean beaming at you pushing you down on the couch cuddling you to her heart's content.
Goddamnit,  you over-working woman, just come back home. I don’t want C2 Diluc, I just want jean.

Yandere Lisa cuddy you say? 👀 That's right up my alley. If your requests are open, could we get headcanons about her and yandere Wilson with a regressor reader? Platonic obvs
Yandere!Cuddy and Yandere!Wilson with age regression reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Warnings: forced Age regression, Yandere!Cuddy, Yandere!Wilson, kidnaping, drugging, nonsexual age regression, gender neutral reader
AN: If I see anyone making the age regression sexual, I will block you. I wrote them separately, but if you wanted something different let me know.
House MD Taglist: @tuttifuckinfruttifriday @flowercrowns-goodvibes
House MD Masterlist All Masterlists
Lisa Cuddy
Lisa met you on a stop for coffee one morning, you were the barista, and it was your first day. She thought it was kind of cute how you fidgeted and were clearly nervous. She ended up giving you a large tip at the end of her order, even if you did miss it up slightly.
She began coming every day, timing it so that she could say hi, talk a little bit. She thought you were adorable, but not in an 'I should ask them out' way, more of a 'they need taken care of' way.
One night, while browsing the internet she finds an interesting concept. Photos and stories of adults regressing to younger ages as ways of relaxing or healing trauma, and she can't help but imagine you in that place.
She's a little ashamed of it at first, but her maternal instinct can't help but fantasize about taking care of you.
One morning, when she goes in for her morning coffee, she gets stuck behind another guy who is extremely rude to you. Even yelling at you until you cried.
Lisa decided she had to do something to help you. You clearly can't handle being an adult on your own, and she'll help you.
She waits until you're leaving work for the night and uses some meds from the hospital to knock you out.
After taking you Lisa pretends that you've always been there. She believes keeping a strict schedule immediately will help you settle into your life with her.
She really doesn't do drugging or anything, you're her baby, and she would never drug a baby!
She loves dressing you up, playing games, feeding you from a bottle, and anything that involves bonding.
Your room is perfect, a paradise of colors, toys, and stuffed animals.
Lisa is careful to not spoil you though, she wants a respectable, well-behaved baby.
You can try to act up, but Lisa is patient and puts up with all your 'temper tantrums' until you learn it's just easier to give in.
James Wilson
James meets you at the hospital where you're an intern. He notices quickly how soft spoken you are, how you never stand up for yourself, and he can't help but feel protective over you.
He starts a friendship with you but keeps it on the downlow the best he can. With how sensitive you are he doesn't want House anywhere near you.
While going over some medical books he ends up finding a phycology one that talks about age regression being used for therapeutic reasons. While you've never revealed some sort of trauma, he can't help but see you in the descriptions, and can't stop thinking about being your 'caregiver' as it says in the book.
Without thinking about it, James starts to buy little things he thinks you'd like. Small stuffed animals, toys, old Disney movies, and before he knows it, he's turned the spare bedroom into a nursery for you. It may not be the best one, but it's cozy.
James is meticulous with how he kidnaps you, planning it out for months before finally taking you.
He's unprepared when it comes to your reaction, however. He didn't expect the fighting, the yelling, the anger you direct at him. He does anything to calm you down, even drugging your milk to keep you calm for a while.
James isn't as strict about you looking or acting like a baby all the time. He doesn't want you to be an adult, but also recognizes that you are one and it would be difficult to just give that up.
James will spoil you, giving you your way most if the time. He's a lot less organized than Lisa.

Howdy, Pine! Can we get three headcanons for all your favorite Scott Pilgrim characters? :-)
Oh absolutely!!!! Lemme think for a minute...
((FUTURE FUTURE ME: I LITERALLY JUST PROCESSED YOU SAID THREE HEADCANONS IM SO SORRY--- YOU WILL UNDERSTAND 😭))
Okay I had a whole thing here, but we're gonna try this again but slightly more Hinged-- forcing myself to format so things don't get out of hand again. I will HAPPILY elaborate, though!!
((Whoop this is future me. This post is going to be so long if I dont do this, so I'm going to put this all under the cut! I'll try to remember to come back up here with the characters I talk about- alternative, should I not do that, maybe check the tags! I'll try to only tag the people I'm directly talking about))
KIM PINE
sexuality: very likely canonically Bi, I am a very big fan of her being a comp. het. lesbian, though (I get this both from my read of the comics/her character and just me Injecting myself into my favorite characters ✌️)
pronouns: she/her usually, but I think she'd be very open and vibe with they/them (me injecting myself again, but also she's just chill like that. I think she prefers if strangers use they/them for her, and her friends or partners use she/her. I'm undecided if she prefers her partners call her their girlfriend or their partner, though.)
Characters I think she has feelings for: RAMONA FLOWERS, Lisa Miller, (MAYBE Scott Pilgrim, still)
Elaboration on that:
I honestly think I can just. Point at some comic panels for Ramona. And the goat thing again. They make me Unhinged that's how canon that is.
Lisa!!! My beloved!!! I think she had a tiny crush on her in high school and had no idea that it was a crush until way later in life- maybe shortly after seeing her again, actually. But like. She's so obviously smiley and happy when she's around, I really can't help but read it that way! She, at the very least, gets an extreme mood boost in her presence, so she really likes having her around.
Scott Pilgrim.... *scrubbing at my face* okay. Okay. So, I have a couple different reads on her feelings for Scott, they're kind of complicated for me to dismantle. Especially since I haven't started my reread of book 6 (I've been giving my thumbs a break, which I am currently prolonging but I have been DYING for someone to ask me to talk about this series.) I'm going to go with my more canon read and leave it at that I think, because it's already becoming this text wall.
Scott was really important to her, I think. She's this aloof, sullen, bitchy girl and she knows it- and then this dorky idiot walks into her life and they really hit it off! They date, they have really sweet, private moments together- it's everything to her. It's someone loving her in spite of the hard shell she initially puts out, and managing to reach her soft, easily bruised heart in ways no one had before. But then he left so abruptly, and that heart was crushed under the weight of her own ribcage. I think she carried that hurt with her every day from that point- I don't imagine her having a particularly roaring love life after that. I think she kept that hurt bottled, and it made any relationships she DID attempt fall apart. It's a wound she's been nursing for way, way too long, and I think she knows that- that's why she wants so badly to forget about it. But then she goes to Toronto and runs into Scott again at the lowest point in his life, and she can't get herself to step away, because this is the only person who ever claimed to love her in a way she felt. I think her decision to stay was sort of... detrimental to her moving on. If she'd detatched herself and stepped back, maybe she could have moved on eventually- she could have worked on herself, or maybe lucked out and found someone who could get through those walls without a sledgehammer, and she would have been better for it. But that's not what happens. She stayed, and I think the longer she stayed the harder it became to keep herself completely shielding from him, because he's still that same goofy guy at his core- he's just a bit worse than she remembered him being. But damn near everything he does throughout the comics just continues to crush her until she HAS to leave- he can apologize, and she can accept it for the version of him she loved, but he's not enough to convince her to stay anymore. I'm going to cut my canon analysis there until I reread their next scene, rather than just continuing incase my thoughts have slightly changed, but like... man... they hurt me in a very unique way. If it was anyone other than Scott, it'd be tragic. (Maybe it still is, maybe that's the Kim Bitterness talking)
For a brief touch on my less canon take, with Kim being a lesbian: I think Scott would have been better placed in her life as a best friend than a partner, but when you're young, and honestly even when you're not all that young, emotional distinction like that can be so, so confusing. So all of the hurt remains very genuine, because she does love him, just not the way she thought she did.
((Because I do love the trans!fem Scott HC as well, I will say. I feel like it would be really, really funny for Kim to realize she's into women and be like "wow sure dodged round two of the Scott Pilgrim bullet" and then one day Scott shows up having started her transition and is like "Oh hey Kimmy!! I'm a lesbian AND a girl, like you now!!!" And Kim just. Crushes her drink or something in her hand like "oh no... oh no she's attractive again... FUCK FUCK FUCK." Obviously a lot more nuanced than that, though. I should probably clarify that I started answering this ask almost IMMEDIATELY after waking up and also BEFORE I've taken more pain meds. If this post has been or starts to become very scattered again, that's why lol.))
Bonus consideration: Hollie. I can dig her having a crush on Hollie, but I feel like it faded a little living with her, and then shattered entirely after the Jason Kim situation. Even an overwhelming attraction to women ain't savin that one, chief. That's just too severe a betrayal.
The Knives Situation: Oh Boy. So in the original answer for this I had a whole thing done up, lemme try to condense it. Basically, I think Kim woke up the next morning HORRIFIED by what she'd done. Like, dry heaving in the bathroom horrified. And this likely really hurt Knives's feelings, should she see! Which Kim would feel horrible about. I'm undecided on if she just runs from the situation before Knives can wake up, or if they have a sort of agrument/one-sided rant on Kim's part afterward where she just really tries to hammer home for Knives how not okay it was for them to do that- for HER to do that, given their ages and inherent power imbalance. In the event that this discussion happens, Knives absorbed none of it, and probably leaves that conversation a little wounded. I think it would proceed to play back in her mind when she and Stephen are talking at one of Julie's parties later on, though, and she'd probably approach Kim after that to thank her for being a reasonable adult about that, unlike how some of her friends had been. Once that understanding is reached, I think they could be good friends, although Kim probably teases her for how she started to dress like her after they first met.
Silly little things: If anyone's familiar with Night in the Woods, do you know the part where Mae's like "that's not drums... that's a computer..."? I feel like that has Kim energy. To me.
Also I think Kim sucks at Rockband- I know that releases like, way afterward or something so far as comic timeline goes, but bare with me, okay? It's my silly little headcanons! Anyway, she'd suck really, really bad on the drums, since so far as I can recall, they don't REALLY correspond with the music. If her friends force her to play, she demands either the mic or the bass, because "fuck you Scott, you try playing their stupid fucking drums." He proceeds to play flawlessly, much to her chagrin. She fairs better on the bass, but only a bit better than the drums, since her fingers aren't quite used to the movements.
Kim didn't think she liked cats for a while, mostly because she was only ever around them fleetingly, and generally in the homes of people who should have been cleaning their litter boxes more regularly. After hanging around Ramona's house more, though, she discovers she really love them! She feels a sort of kinship watching how they actually behave, and I think Gideon ends up warming to Kim very quickly, which probably helps with the very quick turnaround on her opinion. I think it'd be funny if sometimes, when Kim's over, Scott will try to beckon Gideon over to him for cuddles or affection, and the cat will just. Stare at him entirely unimpressed before jumping up into Kim's lap with exaggerated purring and chin rubbing before curling up for a "nap." Kim was in awe the first time this happened, and Ramona finds it ceaselessly amusing every time it happens. ((Funny additonal scenario: once after this happened Scott was whining to Ramona, who was coming to join them on the couch, looking generally very sad/cute/pathetic, and overcome with a sort of playful evil, Ramona proceeded to sit by and cuddle up to Kim as well. Kim immediately froze up and went bright red and wide eyed, Scott's jaw probably dropped before he dove into a theatrical, exaggerated spewl about the betrayal of it all, and Ramona just got to blissfully enjoy Kim cuddles while giggling at both of their reactions and petting Gideon.))
Conversely, I don't know how Kim feels about dogs. Like, I don't think she hates them or anything like that, but maybe they fill her with a sense of pity, for their associations with unwavering loyalty. Something about that specifically runs too close to things she considers about herself, at times, maybe. Idk, just kinda spit ballin here.
I think she does like rats! And mice. Idk. They're cute little guys and I like them, let me have this--
Oh man... just Kim's section is so long. And I have other characters to get to,,, buckle up I guess--- I mean, I did start with My Girl, so maybe the others will be shorter?
((This is future future me again... this is where I actually went back and processed the ask properly :') I have no words to describe my current emotional state beyond that I am trying really hard not to burst into a little fit of laughter at myself and wake my roommate--))
Three! Three headcanons!! I can do this (restraintrestraintrestraint)
Okay! Let's try being Normal About Media- and just as a note, they aren't really in any particular order, beyond Kim being the first because she IS legitimately my favorite, I think. Idk she's very Me.
Ramona Flowers
1. She doesn't really do labels, for things like her idenity; she does think pride flags are pretty, though. Scott got her a bi flag once and she decided to keep it and hang it in her room for this exact reason, though she did explain to him that she doesn't really consider herself anything but herself- Ramona Flowers. He's very understanding about that, although a little confused in the typical Scott manner! They eventually come around to just considering it being his flag, when he comes to terms with himself (yeah, spoilers, I HC him as bi)
2. Her hair actually does have magic properties to it that prevent it from getting absolutely butchered by all the bleaching she does- she doesn't know how or why, though. Maybe it's less magic and more to do with the supplies themselves? Unlike Scott, she's not as meticulous when it comes to reading the status effect labels on things she uses or consumes.
3. Of her former partners, I think she does have genuine lingering feelings for Roxie. So far as the comics/movie go, she simply repressed the hell out of them and plays the Deny Deny Deny! game, but so far as the show goes, I think she's come to terms with the fact that she still loves her, but horrifically fumbled her- she doesn't want to hurt Roxie like that again, so she's unlikely to ever try things again between them, I think. Not unless Roxie was the initiator, and even then, it'd take some coaxing.
Bonus 4. She absolutely has feelings for Kim. I feel like maybe further into their relationship she'd 100% ask Scott like "hey... you know your really hot friend Kim?" and proceed to discuss with him if being in a polyamorous relationship is something he could get behind. Maybe it'd happen after a period of time with Kim living with them too, or something.
Roxie Richter
1. She gets ALL the girls- all of them. She's an unholy TERROR for men where she lives, because she is notorious for giving women the night of their lives and making them never look back so far as dating men goes. Now, I don't think she deliberately breaks up people or goes after "straight" girls or anything, but it's probably something that's happened on accident before, so she's A Menace. I will say that she might deliberately swoop in and woo a girl she knows is taken if it's extremely clear that their relationship is just Not Right- like if she's seeing clear signs of abuse, or something. She isn't intending to get with these girls when she does this, but she is fully intending to get them out of shitty situations. She's even turned girls down after their (ex) boyfriends have stormed off in a huff, simply out of respect for them- she'll try to give them advice, and if they're adamant in trying New Venues, she might play matchmaker where she can, but she isn't really comfortable sleeping with them after doing stuff like that- to her, it feels gross, maybe even exploitative.
2. I actually don't know if this is meant to be canon or not, because it's noted alongside some of her sketches, but she's german/japanese in my eyes- but raised in the states. She knows English the best, and some German, but she doesn't really know much Japanese, much to her own agitation- she just struggles with it a lot, for whatever reason. She can kind of read some things, but if she tries to speak it she runs the risk of butchering the words. I personally further HC her dad as German and her mom as Japanese- dad by process of elimination, mom based loosely on how I read some of her and Ramona's conversations in the comics.
3. She is in fact whistling the tune in the show intending it to be from the Robin Hood movie- in fact, I think I'm going to HC it as one of her favorite animated films from childhood. (... do I HC her as a furry now?)
Lisa Miller
1. Disaster Bi! She's a bit of a Menace and she knows it; she likes to rile people up, but she can't really take what she dishes out. Like, if she'd done the kind of seductive teasing she does to Scott to Kim and received any sort of flirting back, her brain would shut down and she'd need to reboot. She doesn't know how to handle when someone else takes the reigns, which is why it was so easy and fun to play with Scott- he was too stunned/shy to play back, which she enjoys. Not to imply she doesn't enjoy having her brain melted a little, of course.
2. I think she makes it big after she heads to America! Or at least, bigger than she was. She sends her friends back in Toronto signed copies of movie posters and CDs and things when she can- she doesn't expect them to keep them, although she loves it when they do, but at least in Scott's case it's sort of a "incase of emergency, please sell" sort of situation. He does not, obviously. (Ramona probably does, though, both from admittedly petty lingering jealousy and because they just don't have room for all of it; Scott rarely seems to notice anyhow, and the money usually goes towards rent or random gifts for him anyhow)
3. I forget if everyone's sudden absence is noticed when they Poof briefly during the finalt episode of the show, but if it is I feel like Lisa starts to talk to Kyle, since he's in front of her, like "hey, what exactly happened there-" before looking out over everyone else who reappeared in their seats and noticing Scott is actually up there with them. She spends the rest of that night chatting up him and the league, and maybe even scores an in with Matthew for getting a foothold in her acting career!
Matthew Patel
1 . He absolutely has a dedicated cult following for his theatrical works, and it's warranted! He's genuinely good at what he does, and his passion is clear as day; any production is lucky to have him, and he knows it, which can kind of lead to butting heads behind the scenes. I feel like he might come across to his fellow performers as full of himself, especially given his proficiency with one man performances, but he truly is just deeply, deeply passionate about his work, and he wants to feel that passion with anyone he works with, too. He NEEDS his energy matched to feel like it's going to be a grand performance, and he simply doesn't notice how off-putting this can be for his coworkers as a result.
2. The demon hipster chicks have always been the visual age they are now, even when Matthew was a kid; he viewed them as older sisters growing up, and they're very protective of him perhaps as a result. At his current age, they're his best friends and personal body guards- they'll descend like rabid dogs on anyone that steps out of line around him, if he doesn't call them off. Sometimes it's a bit much for him, but they're usually pretty good about understanding when they do and don't need to interfere on his behalf.
3. Ya know I'm not sure if it's a HC I've seen at all but I could really vibe with trans!masc Matthew. I would love that for him, truly.
Scott Pilgrim
1. Look... I really love any trans!Scott headcanons. Like, any direction, I've said before; I genuinely have such a problem figuring out which version I enjoy best: he's trans!masc and has been all along, or trans!fem and Ramona eventually helps to crack that egg. But also, while I'm saying this, he is. So stupid. Not like maliciously stupid in this sense, absolutely not, but I feel like he's the kind of person to like. Run into someone from his past post their transition, with THEM coming up to HIM to be like "oh long time no see, Pilgrim," and then he would say something to the affect of "oh, you have the same last name as (DN)!!! Are you related? Kim, Kim!! Do you know if (DN) had any siblings?" while Kim and the other person just stare at him deadpan for a bit before bursting into laughter at his expense. He would then proceed to be really confused and just not get it, either until they explain it to him or like, he'd just suddenly sit up in a cold sweat later that night realizing what he did like "oh my GOD that WAS them, I said their dead name at them like seven times!! I am Going To Hell!!!" (And Ramona would just kind of blindly, lightly slap around in his general direction, like "honey you're not going to hell for basically affirming the effectiveness of their transition, go the fuck to sleep. They would've said something if it was a problem." Idk, that's just how he feels to me.)
2. When he has his own money for things, and space living with Ramona, he spends it on video games or video game related merch- it's probably a lot of patches and t-shirts, but I can see him starting to collect plushies, too! Like some of the really old kinda silly looking Sonic plushies, for example? If I had my Knuckles one on hand I'd use him as an example, but I think he's in storage somewhere :(
3. Gets into really heated arguments about video game mechanics and stat stuff where applicable; like, Ramona has to drag him away or else he will actively start fighting people kind of heated. He can hold chill conversations, but if he feels like he's being talked down to about a game that he's REALLY into, like Sonic Adventure (he has the director's cut!)
Wallace Wells
1. MENACE TO SOCIETY. He's comparable to Roxie in this way except he is so much worse (I say this affectionately <3) because he does just straight up, in canon, do things like steal Stacey's boyfriends! And that's his friend that he's doing that to! So I cannot IMAGINE what mischief he gets up to when he goes out drinking. He's probably ruined so many lives, naybe even marriages. What am I saying, maybe? Definitely. And he feels no remorse about this! In his eyes either your man was already gay or you needed to treat him better, sweetie; he HAS been rejected before, so clearly his charms can't ruin what ain't already broken.
2. While he does have feeling for Scott, which is basically canon I don't even want to hear it, he KNOWS better. Like, he'd been living with Scott for a while, so he knows if they were legitimately dating he probably would be even more sick of him than he already is. When they were still living together, though, there were times where he couldn't help but wonder if it would really be all that bad... right before Scott comes in and does or says something that just highlights for Wallace that he's making the Sane choice. Besides, Wallace is (and i hate using these terms but I straight up don't know what other words I could possibly use) a sugar baby; he can't keep up being both a sugar baby and Scott's effective sugar daddy (HATEHATEHATE THAT WORD) while ALSO paying rent. It doesn't really work out that well, especially with him having, at the time, such a shitty apartment to begin with.
3. I feel like Wallace really enjoys his nightlife and getting to sleep around, so I'm unsure if this is something still in play while he's with Mobile, or if he respects Mobile enough to do away with that entirely. Like, different situations work for different relationships, so if Mobile is fine with it then maybe it's something that continues! But taking into account the sparks from the show, maybe he'd actually be really fine being exclusive with Mobile. Especially given how well their future selves seem to be doing. Idk! Basically the sum of this one is just that, if Wallace is exclusive with Mobile, he misses be a bit of a whore, but he's very happy where, and with who he is, now.
Envy Adams
1. She gives me vibes.. queer vibes... in some sort of direction.... idk if I'm fully behind her also being a comp. het lesbian or just labeling her a disaster bi, but I also get a vague sense of gender fuckery. It's entirely her name thing, probably, but I can see Envy being genderqueer.
2. She probably hunted Lynette down after that show- an arm was likely Not Enough to quite satisfy that rage. Especially since she didn't get the satisfaction of beating Todd more thoroughly herself, since Scott stepped in. Conversely, for the show canon, Wallace has a target on his back for the rest of her life, as far as she's concerned, even in a world where her feelings for Todd were just misunderstood- she considered him her best friend, and you don't get away with hurting her friends like that unless you're her.
3. I think I'd like to HC that some part of her regrets booting Scott from the band the way she did back in college? Maybe not immediately, or even soon, but I feel like sometimes she would think about him and their relationship as a whole and just feel bad, Idk. Like, she doesn't want to get back with him at all, but I could maybe see her offering to promote Shatterband (or Sex Bob-Omb, in the show,) or even play with him as a genuine apology instead of a coy trap somewhere down the line.
Knives Chau
1. Look... look I know I'm about to sound like a broken record... comp. het. lesbian or bi. HEAR ME OUT: her puppy dog love for Scott is really just that- something cute and innocent, but very intense, especially once he cuts her off in that honestly really brutal manner. Teenage heartbreak is messy- even if you feel like it was real, true love you had, you can often realize later in life that what you felt was just admiration, or something else innocuous like that. I think she reaffirms it to herself as a deep and true love because of how intense the pain of that breakup was, paired with everything that comes after, and I think the show really highlights that for me? Because in the show, with Scott out of the picture entirely, she's just a lot less intense about it. I think after playing music and hanging around his friends, she realizes she didn't really love him all that much, just thought he was a cool older guy and liked that he took an interest in her, even if she recognizes how wrong that was now. ((I probably have more articulate thoughts on this but I am really starting to feel the lack of pain meds so I need to get through this--))
2. Knives is really good at rhythm games and things like DDR or, when it's eventually released, Just Dance. Like, freakishly good. She picks them up just as well and just as quickly as she did her instruments.
3. With how quickly she picked up her instruments, she kinda gives me honor student vibes? Idk. I feel like it'd be a little stressful for her later on, because I do think her passionate drive for music makes her grades take a slight spin, but she just gives off that energy for me. Knives is a lot smarter than people give her credit for, I think, Idk.
... yes, I am very normal about media... spending 3 hours on 1 ask that offered me a lot more simplicity than I can apparently manage...

i always wonder about the cleaning situation at the loft. do they have a big cleaning day once in a while? do they ask coil to send someone to clean? does alec ever do the washing up? if so, is he an ipad baby who watched gaming channels while doing so?
i ascribe to a headcanon obtained from this gorgeous art:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(eternally thinking about this artists rendition of the loft. sooo incredibly lived-in....captures the Essence of those guys and they're not even in the drawing. i love you blood-spattered fancy shirt alec left on the counter i love you lisa's bra laying around on their massive pile of laundry i love you brian's protein powder on top of the fridge.)
which is to say:
they have a big whiteboard for delineating chores and alec is always doodling all over it and everyone gets affectionately mad at him for this
i'm obsessed w the implication in the last part of the drawing i snipped that tattletale had to do the other undersiders chores every day of the week but on the one day that was supposed to be hers alec did her chores instead. perhaps as some kind of insufferable bit, or perhaps because he felt he should recompense her for having to do his chores after he accidentally laid facedown in bed all monday because "he was tired" (having a bad day in the depression department)
i think brian does a comically disproportionate amount of the cleaning for someone who does not actually fucking live there. he'll see a mess that could Easily have been fixed already sitting there 5 days in a row and get annoyed enough to clean it up while alec is laying on the couch like [thinking 2 himself] Victory....I knew I wouldn't have to do it if I waited long enough... + sometimes lisa walks in on him just scrubbing the stove clean or some other task 15yos would not think to do and she wisely elects not to ask What For bc she knows that will result in brian going on a homeowners tangent
lisa and alec make rachel handle any Notably Gross Or Difficult chores if brian isnt there. lisa hovering over rachels shoulder directing her in how to fix their busted toilet while alec eats a bag of cool ranch doritos in the doorway and provides commentary. theyre holding the ladder steady for her while she changes the lightbulbs. butch of the house
also i think one time a dog threw up on the carpet and alec was like BITCH!!!! BITCH YOUR DOG JUST THREW UP ON THE CARPET IT'S REALLY GROSS and rachel trudges off to get cleaning supplies from the closet and then another dog comes up and starts eating it and alec is like BITCH!!!!! BITCH JUDAS IS EATING IT IT'S REALLY GROSS and rachel is like [furious] SO STOP HIM. and alec is like Ewww...nooo ew his face is covered in doggie upchuck i'm not touching him...and then rachel makes a really ominous growling noise so alec goes and hauls on judas' collar to drag him away but hes not happy about it
they always all throw a buncha clothes on the laundry pile when they come back tired after a mission and then theyre like Ok we will do that tomorrow. and then tomorrow theyre like id rather rest tho....so their laundry pile grows infinitely larger until they all miserably have to spend an afternoon cooperating to get that shit washed. And don't even get me started on the "folding" side of things.

When a Tomb Becomes a Womb (Part 1: Rings)
Well, it’s finally happened: I wrote a story for a movie rather than YouTube Egos. (Not that this is gonna become a regular thing, mind you. Lisa Frankenstein just so happened to check all the right boxes for my hyperfixation and brainrot.) 
(Disclaimer: While I agree that Creature doesn’t really need an actual name to be a great character, I still decided to give him a headcanon name—which is Callum, since I think it would fit him— just because this entire story is from his perspective. Mentioning his "true," pre-death name just seems logical. Neither of the characters in this story belongs to me. Lisa Swallows and The Creature are the property of Zelda Williams and Diablo Cody.)
(Trigger Warnings: implied murder/death, implied violence, gore/blood, mentions of electrocution and fire, scars, body horror, dismemberment. Please let me know if I missed anything.)
The soil was loose and soft. It yielded to the shovel’s rusty spade quite easily.
Though many emotions were thrumming through Callum’s skull at the moment, surprise wasn’t one of them. 
While dark clouds had clogged up the night sky, hiding the stars and moon and bloating with rain that would fall sooner or later, the current season was warm, and so the ground wasn’t too firm. 
This plot had only been filled hours ago. This grave was fresh; infinitely fresher than his had been.
By now, Callum estimated that it’d taken at least half a day for him to crawl up through the ground and breach the surface like one of the several worms slithering around inside him.
He hadn’t exactly been in the right headspace to consider it at first; back then, all he’d been able to know was light and electricity and shuddering and pain and. . .Lisa’s words. 
Lisa’s words. 
The same thing that fueled Callum to escape his tomb was now guiding him to free Lisa from hers, all with the same amount of violent tremors and desperation.
It was poetic, honestly. 
Perhaps it would’ve been a bit more poetic if he didn’t have to get so filthy in the process.
Oh, well. He could take care of that later. (Besides, the stains on his clothes were nothing compared to the layers of grime and mold and fungus that had been caked all over him on that first, fateful night.)
Right now, unearthing his beloved without getting caught seemed like a much more important thing to focus on.
His grip was vicelike around the wooden handle as he threw one shovelful after another to the side.
Almost there, Callum thought. (If he could speak, he’d be repeating that mantra in a whisper like his life depended on it. Which. . .well, it logically didn’t, but it technically did. The same went for Lisa.) Almost there. 
He’d wanted to take her away sooner. He would’ve been perfectly fine with forcing her family to waste money on a casket. Really, what good was a casket if you buried it empty? 
But the distinct lack of a corpse would have just caused more problems. As dense as her family seemed to be, they’d still know that the shiny, glowing box (Lisa had called it a. . .tanning bed? If memory served?) wouldn’t have been capable of reducing a person to ashes no matter how dangerous it was. 
He knew she wasn’t dead. Not completely; not truly. Yes, the combination of electrical currents and fire may have worked its horrific magic on her body. . .but that magic just hadn’t followed through altogether as it probably should have. 
The way the bed had convinced foreign limbs to function as intended mere minutes after Lisa sewed them onto him. . .the way it had rejuvenated his centuries-dead flesh bit by bit. . .
It had some kind of similar effect on Lisa. The vast majority of her had died, but there was still a strong, stubborn ember of something in her that was very much determined to live. 
Callum knew that very well. He’d seen proof of it before being forced to flee from the fire.
But Lisa’s family didn’t. As far as they knew, she was gone and never coming back. So, if she just disappeared before they could bury her, then they’d have an excuse to try and track her down. And if that happened, neither she nor her husband would get another chance. . .
Callum ground his jaw, putting even more force behind the shovel. 
The hole grew deeper.
The pile of disturbed earth beside it grew bigger. 
The dull, scraping tempo of grave-robbery began to sound like hitching gasps and sobs.
Just as the clouds started ominously humming about their plans for the night, the shovel reverberated after finally, finally, finally striking something much more solid than dirt.
Callum tossed the tool aside in favor of getting down on his knees, now using his hands to clear away a blanket of finer, thinner soil. 
He hoped Lisa could hear him digging. (Though if that was the case, then the state of her brain could potentially make her think that the sounds were echoing from somewhere farther beneath her. Which would be. . .less than ideal, as Callum didn’t enjoy the idea of scaring her again. )
Even in his anxiety, he subconsciously shook his head. Lisa had taken him in and repaired him even after being initially terrified. Lisa trusted him, loved him; if she didn’t, then he never would have woken up in the first place.
More time passed, and a soft, cold gleam suddenly manifested in the darkness.
Glossy wood. 
The coffin’s upper door. 
Callum groped at the edge of it, tugging with all his strength.
An odd, warm feeling skittered up his spine and shook through his ribcage. 
A low creeeeaaak rattled through the air as the lid was pried open.
. . .And there she was.
___
Callum had always been a fast learner, and yet he still had no idea what to make of his pulse. 
It’d been extremely jarring when he’d first awoken. The days that followed, it was irregular. Sometimes he could feel it, sometimes he couldn’t. It was always soft—following more of a murmur than a steady beat—always irregular, barely there at all.
Right now, however, it both sounded and felt very far away. More present than it had been when he’d performed a highly unorthodox beheading on that stain of a man who’d upset Lisa. 
Hell, it almost seemed louder and stronger than it had been on the most recent evening he’d spent with Lisa; the one that saw the two of them embracing and reeling and dreaming together. . .
Everything else was a blur as he brought her to her new bed, carrying her like the bride she was. He had to move slowly, carefully, feeling more anxious and unwieldy than ever. 
Well, at least until he laid her down, making sure the pillow offered enough support for her neck.
After that, he was much, much more erratic.
He sprinted about the house, tearing almost every other room apart as he searched. It felt like several hours had passed by the time he finally found what he—what his beloved—needed: a white, sterile-looking container. He opened it, just to be certain, then tucked it under one arm and hurried back over to the bedroom.
Every square inch of Lisa’s body was blistered to hell and back, adorned by a network of puffy, angry-looking veins that, had her heart still been beating, would have more or less threatened to burst at any given moment. Red and raw, several sections on her arms, legs, and chest having peeled off to reveal glistening tissue.
Her mane of thick, curly auburn hair had been reduced to a few small, fried patches that clung to the charred flesh of her scalp with a strength similar to bubblegum and well-intentioned vibes. There was a possibility that she’d died with her eyes open, but the awful swelling of the skin around their sockets had sealed them shut. 
None of that mattered, of course. 
Lisa was still just as beautiful as when Callum had first met her. She always, always would be. 
. . .Even so, those injuries had to be dealt with. Despite what Lisa had said before about accepting a person’s flaws, Callum’s instincts told him she wouldn’t appreciate being left to resemble a puppet made of half-raw-half-cooked steaks.
Callum set the medical kit down on the nightstand, ferreting out generous rolls of gauze as he loomed over the side of the bed. 
The world finally seemed to slow back down as he got to work.
It didn’t take long for him to find a gentle, precise cadence as he wrapped bandage after bandage after bandage around his beloved’s form. Something in the back of his mind wondered if this was what spiders felt like when they spun strands of silk together to make their webs.
Although Lisa’s skin hadn’t been rendered translucent, the burns in some places went deep enough for Callum to catch a glimpse of her organs. Both of her lungs were blackened, seared, sunken. Her heart was equally misshapen, now boasting a similar appearance to a blob of melted wax, looking like it was seconds away from collapsing in on itself. 
But even as all the carnage was swallowed up by more strips of gauze, Callum could still see the heart twitch. The movement only lasted for half a second or so, but there was no doubting that it’d happened. . .
Lisa still had a chance. She would never be truly alive again, but she could still come back.
She couldn’t wake up by herself. . .but she wouldn’t have to.
He’d find a way to help, just as she’d done for him. 
Callum blinked for the first time all night, and his hands were suddenly free; he was suddenly sitting at the foot of the new bed.
Lisa was cloaked quite literally from head to toe in clean, snow-white bandages. It was like he'd made the perfect combination of shroud and wedding dress for her to wear.
The thought made a small smile tug at his lips. 
Then he shook his head.
He couldn’t relax just yet. There were other things to be taken care of right now. Two other things, to be specific. 
Callum got to his feet and crossed the new bedroom to quietly close the door. He ventured down a narrow hallway, peering at an assortment of unfamiliar pictures hanging on the walls around him. Disposing of them would probably be another chore for him later.
His footsteps sounded hollow and heavy as he descended the staircase. (Unlike Lisa’s former home, the floors of this house were all hardwood rather than carpet. True, they wouldn’t muffle noise very well, but it was still quite a lucky coincidence.) 
He’d found this house completely by accident, when he’d still been trying to follow Lisa’s path. 
Even with the remnants of that lightning bolt sparking in his stagnant blood, even with Lisa’s voice echoing through his resurrected mind, it’d still taken so much time for him to truly wake up. He grimaced at the thought of how long he’d had to crawl around the cemetery before he could stand upright. 
(And that wasn’t even mentioning the state his vision had been in. The layers of rancid slime and dirt clinging to his face had made everything around him blurry and distorted. The fact that his eyes were also full of maggots at the time certainly hadn’t helped.)
He’d had to wander the surrounding woods for hours and hours before he could finally walk. The rot in his bones had kept his movement slow and uneven, but a bad limp was still better than collapsing every other moment. 
Callum wasn’t sure how the house’s previous owners hadn’t seen or heard him that night. They certainly had a few hours ago, but that wasn’t a factor anymore. 
He crept into the living room, where he paced a few slow circles around the fresh corpse lying in the center of all the controlled chaos. The crimson splatters now adorning the floor, the walls, the sofa’s floral print almost seemed to glitter.
Another carcass could be found just a few feet away, sprawled across the wide threshold that led into the dining room. The face was obscured, as blood was still leaking out to add to a large puddle that continued to slowly spread, inch-by-inch. 
Callum folded his arms across his chest, drumming the nails of his replacement hand against his cheek. He remembered what Lisa had said when he’d silently begged her to help him find new parts; a contemplative murmur about there being bad people in the world. . .
Her relief and gratitude when he’d bludgeoned that horrible excuse for a mother to death.
Her cathartic happiness when he’d dismembered the scum who’d tried to put his filthy hands on her.
Her tearful joy when she eventually realized why he’d risked so much to take a particularly crucial piece from the ignoramus who’d dared to play with her emotions. . .
It had all been so wonderful to see.
Those victims had all hurt Lisa, and they likely would've hurt others as well. Their deaths wouldn’t be an actual loss to the community.
But this. . .
Lisa definitely wouldn’t have approved of this. Yes, she’d understand why Callum had done what he’d done; after everything they’d been through, of course the two of them needed a quiet place to stay, if only for a while until they found somewhere better. A place that was a fair distance from both the town and the cemetery. A place just like this.
But. . .
A raspy sigh escaped Callum’s lips. 
He'd work with more tact in the future. 
Once Lisa was awake, things would be better. He’d listen to her input. They would make important decisions together.
Callum’s eyes wandered about, eventually settling on the axe—the same one Lisa had taken from her father’s garage—he’d left propped up against the adjacent wall. It was slathered in gore, to the point that its wooden handle was just as red as the paint on its blade. 
He approached to pick it up, letting the weapon’s belly rest on his shoulder. Then he stooped down, using his free hand to take hold of the first corpse’s wrists. More of the floor was painted red as he dragged it into the kitchen. He retraced his steps to collect the second body, coming dangerously close to slipping on the blood as he hefted his victim onto the countertop.
The next hour or so was filled with dull thuds, with splintery pops and cra-A-a-cks, with the drip-drip-drip of thick fluid oozing down the lower cabinets and plopping onto the floor. 
The axe was too heavy to be the most precise tool, but it was still efficient. It only took a few good swings to sever limbs from torsos and heads from necks. 
Callum couldn’t bury either of these bodies. Not right away, at least. Fortunately, he soon discovered that there were more than enough black trash bags under the sink to work with. 
Lisa’s body obviously needed repair, but he wasn’t sure which repairs should come first. (He knew she’d require a new pair of eyes, but he didn’t want to risk forcing her current ones open just yet.) Would it be better to take off her old limbs and put new ones in their place, or to simply slice off layers of skin and attach a new barrier to her burnt flesh?
Wait and see, a voice in his head suggested. Callum nodded to himself; when Lisa was able to communicate again, he’d organize these plans with her. It was only right, after all. 
Callum set the axe down by the sink, now focusing on wrapping up the detached pieces of human in tight, layered cocoons that crinkled with every second. Packing all the bundles into the freezer and refrigerator in a way that kept them from sliding right back out was far more aggravating than he would’ve cared to admit, but he managed. 
He gave pause, however, when it came to the two remaining pieces. 
A pair of forearms, to be specific, with their hands still attached. 
One from each corpse. 
Something small and metallic glinted around the fourth finger on each of them. 
The first ring had a very simple design: just a smooth, golden band. 
The second ring, meanwhile, was silver, mounted with a shiny stone.
It wasn’t a diamond by any means. Callum couldn’t tell what kind of gem it was, honestly. But it was gorgeous—it’d been carved into a smooth, perfect orb. It reminded him of an ember at the heart of a firepit, boasting a graceful mix of orange and red with a few soft hints of yellow.
The colors reminded him of that one night. 
Callum shoved the forearms into hiding with all the other parts, the two rings now nestled in his palm. With that, he exited the kitchen, an unfamiliar spring in his step as he ventured back up the staircase. Yes, he still had an enormous bloody mess to clean up, but this took priority. 
His odd, partial heartbeat echoed in his ears as he re-entered the new bedroom and knelt down beside the bed. 
Slowly, delicately, Callum took one of Lisa’s hands in his. He pressed a small kiss to her bandaged knuckles before sliding the new ring onto her finger. 
It fit perfectly. Just like the gold ring did for him. 
As for the odd-yet-sweet candy loop he’d made do with for the original proposal. . .well, he decided to leave it on the nightstand. 
Just in case Lisa wanted to keep it when she woke up.

A/N: it might not be the most original, but I hope you enjoy <33
Tumblr media
ALBEDO
our dearest alchemist isn’t one for understanding the joy of the holidays — he never fully grasped why receiving or giving a gift on one specific day meant so much someone, but to each their own was his thought process
emphasis on was, since this was going to be the first holiday the two of you would spend officially as a couple
that was when he finally understood why everyone made such a big deal out of gift-giving during the holidays; he finally felt pressure
pressure to find something perfect for you
now, albedo isn’t saying that he has never felt pressure before; but not like he does once the first few days of winter rolls around
everyone is talking and decorating for the holidays — especially for their loved ones. he had considered studying the new atmosphere that had spread throughout Teyvat which had caused almost everyone to be in what they called a ‘holiday spirit’ but he digressed
he already had an unfamiliar feeling weighing on his shoulders which he wasn’t sure how to deal with
so after an extensive amount of people watching, Albedo had came to the conclusion that he should ask you what you wanted directly to your face
however that was quickly tossed aside when on the way to ask you what you wanted for the holidays he overheard people agreeing that their present had to be kept a secret
so he changed course and went to the direction of kaeya for advice instead
did he think kaeya would be the best candidate to ask? no — which is why all research projects have more than one test subject
(i failed science this year pls don’t come for me in any inaccuracies)
when he had asked kaeya about gifts for his partner his reply was a mix of teasing and recommending a gift of extravagance:
“Think of it as something to be remembered. You want them to remember that it was you who have it to them after all, right? Either go big or go home.”
albedo isn’t the most wealthy of the captains so he chalked kaeya’s response as a result of his upbringing with the ragvindr’s but he had taken most of his advice and moved onto the next
lisa was more in-tune with her emotions than him or others he knows so he visited her next
her response was similar to kaeya’s — in the teasing matter that is — but she had gotten more in depth in what the perfect gift would be:
“Well, gifts are meant to be both given and received. So what about something matching? Like a cute little locket with a picture of each other in it! Ah, how I wish somebody would give me something like that one day.”
needless to say, albedo was quite thankful that she hadn’t spoken to him in riddles this time around and got straight to the point; there was a reason he was interviewing his peers after all
the next and final candidate on his list for advice was his assistant sucrose
sucrose gave him advice that was short and sweet and didn’t require him to think to hard about
“A bouquet should do the trick — you can’t go wrong with a nice bouquet with their favorite flowers; you know their favorite flower, right?”
after looking over his notes one last time, Albedo had concluded to gift you a leather band with Cecilia’s along with your favorite flower pressed and preserved onto it
the flower petals had practically covered all of the band which was tightened and loosened via a ribbon which you pulled in order to do so
“I hope that this gift is up to par with your standards, and I hope you know I really appreciate you being with me despite knowing all the possibilities that could happen and the nature of my work, so thank you.”
CHILDE
compared to our favorite alchemist, childe is more adept with emotions and when giving someone a gift
despite falling into the abyss and being apart of an organization that isn’t the most humane, he’s a family man with multiple siblings to look after so he’s bound to notice the little things
like your preferences — how you lean towards your favorite color over all else, how your eyes narrow in disgust when you smell something vile, how your eyes widen when you see the sight of your favorite dessert on display, etc etc
he could go on all day but that would be a waste of time given his current dilemma
see, Childe doesn’t necessarily consider his pockets to be bottomless, but they most certainly look like they are given how much he splurges when it comes to you and his family
“Childe, would you care to explain to me why you have spent 4,078,934 mora on: personal expenses?”
“Can you beat me in a fight?”
listen i need more genshin characters to be portrayed with sass not all of them can be respectful
but back on track, he knows what kinds of gifts his family members prefer — teucer likes a lot of small presents, tonia would rather have few good quality gifts rather than more low quality ones, and his mother absolutely adores heartfelt gifts
however, it seems almost like a balance when it came to you in his eyes; you liked treasured practically everything he gave you, whether it be silly rock he drew a silly face on or an expensive dinner date
he didn’t want to just gift you random trinkets! you deserved and are worth so much more than that
but still, he wanted it to be a surprise so he couldn’t just ask you himself outright
so he sends teucer over to question you
truly the smartest idea he had ever thought of the whole year where you would never suspect a thing
“Your brother sent you here to ask me that question didn’t he?”
“Uh… no?”
as much as he hates to say it, he was slightly disappointed in teucer for barely making an effort to disguise the fact that Childe was the one who sent him over but hey, he still got his answer so why should he care?
though the answer was still relatively vague, it had narrowed down his options quite a bit — still a lot since the more money he owns the more options he has but I digress
he had decided to gift you three things:
silly goofy hehe haha gift: he took inspiration from his sisters old craft book lying around somewhere and got to work on making a finger puppet created to look like him; he didn’t know where this idea came from to he completely honest
omg romance: a gift most certainly more well thought out and a lot of care given into it where he gifted you small trinkets from all over the seven nations where they all have some form of meaning of love
personal expenses are skyrocketing: rented out a whole entire restaurant just for a lovely one-on-one date with no distractions to bother you both with the menu containing some added dishes catered to your liking
“You’re someone special, and I’m not saying that just to make you feel that way — well, partially since that is what you are to me. I’m saying this because you managed to accept all sides of me, and I wish to do the same to you.”
LYNEY
I believe that lyney maybe the one who is most adept in his emotions out of the five
unfortunately, he’s terribly indecisive; like Childe he notices the minor details which only fuels his never-ending thought process on what you’d like and dislike about it gift
this wasn’t as simple as pulling a rose from behind your ear after all
the pressure also magnifies 10x since lyney’s from Fontaine given how the nation may be centered around justice, it pays attention to live and passion just — if not more — as much so the expectations for his gifts to be methodically thought out is incredibly high
it also doesn’t help that lyney is practically working overtime to keep up his: ‘perfect older brother’ facade given how much overthinking he’s been doing lately
and so his dear siblings — lynette and freminet — have took it upon themselves to help out their brother dearest by… being his stationed listeners to all of his ramblings
“You may be thinking that we already have established that they don’t like that color, however! Recently they purchased a new shirt that is that exact color they have shown distaste for but that doesn’t exactly mean they have completely changed their mind since—“
“Lyney why don’t we just, not get them things that are that color?”
“I’m getting to that. So there’s always—“
[insert Lynette groaning here]
they give good advice it’s just that lyney doesn’t necessarily fully processes them in his mind which then leads to him having mind-blowing revelations in his eyes when in reality freminet mentioned that idea an hour ago
the air in the room gets pretty awkward after that’s mentioned but is quickly defused do too lyney dashing out in search for the gift he deems perfect for you
Lyney does it so quickly in fact, that it gets its own small section in the Steambird for it which most certainly catches your eye
it’s quite funny when you confront him about it though with him feigning ignorance and throwing out claims sarcastically yet still dancing around the truth even though you both know what it was
luckily it doesn’t take that long for lyney to fess up and give you an early holiday present
“This might be one of the only times I’m not appreciative of Charlotte’s work — but I hope that my untimely and unceremoniously gift hasn’t ruined the experience this season — I am fortunate to have someone as lovely as you by my side after all.”

Genshin Impact Gf Headcanons
Tumblr media

I hope u guys enjoy this and some of the headcanons might not be accurate since i rarely play any of the mondstadt girls, The only one I play from our mondstadt girls is Klee hahahaha....
Also some of my headcanons might be inaccurate or occ thats because as i said i don't play the mondsadt girls that much so i apologize for that.
If some characters are not in these headcanon posts it means there gonna be in another post which has platonic headcanons for them, Because of the kids and some underaged characters(According to Google) soo yea....

Bì-Hán & Kuài Liáng, Dickensian Brothers (A Headcanon)
"I know nothing of days of the week; I know nothing of weeks of the year." "So she sat, corpse-like, as we played at cards; the frillings and trimmings on her bridal dress, looking like earthy paper. I knew nothing then of the discoveries that are occasionally made of bodies buried in ancient times, which fall to powder in the moment of being distinctly seen; but, I have often thought since, that she must have looked as if the admission of the natural light of day would have struck her to dust." Charles Dickens, Great Expectations
In one of my fics based on the old Midway lore, I imagined Bì-Hán and Kuài Liáng reuniting with their mother in the United States, from where she had never left. They find out that the lady never recovered from their abduction by their father several decades earlier, and had since that fateful moment remained frozen "in the time of loss", as I like to put it. Her apartment? Cluttered from floor to ceiling with miscellaneous objects, papers, garbage... All covered in a thick layer of motley, ageless dust, grime and grease. Through all this junk, she thought she could symbolically hold her beloved children back, and even the man who trifled with her and whom she thought she could call her husband. Emptiness terrifies her, and that everything is decrepit, falling apart and overrun with pests doesn't bother her: at least she has company. Corruption, stench and suffering drip from the walls. The clocks, meanwhile, are all stopped at the same time: 8:40 a.m., the time when Bì-Hán and Kuài Liáng last walked through the apartment door with their father, never to return. The recluse spends her days in complete darkness (she never opens the blinds) sitting in her armchair, immersed in torpor and deep melancholy. Her traumatic memory, closed in on itself, takes her far "out of space—out of time". In her head, she travels and relives in a never-ending loop all the happy moments of her existence with her sons and her husband. She relives that blessed time of illusion, that time from before the veil of Maya was torn away. It's her paradise—her inner Thule, her solipsistic El Dorado. Like a mise en abyme, not only her blinds, but also her eyes are closed from the inside, closed on a past replayed a thousand times over, but devoid of substance—the empty shell in which she has nevertheless found refuge. Here, the silhouettes of yesteryear surround her, circling around her and smiling to her. But should she have to get up from her armchair, should she decide to open her eyes, that reality would once again strike her with its scythe, the scythe of time, the scythe of Saturn, who devours everything in his path and leaves only ruin and death behind, and she would crumble and fall to pieces like a mummy under the sun. Good protective memories would dissipate like dew in the sun, like smoke in the air, and flashbacks of that terrible morning would return to assail and haunt her like evil ghosts lurking in the darkest recesses of her infamous dwelling.
Tumblr media
In the Midway timeline, their mother was a nameless woman. In my fic, I gave her a birth name: Havisham. To me, Bì-Hán and Kuài Liáng's mother is indeed a modern day version of Dickens' Miss Havisham. In Mythologies (Midway timeline) and Conquest (the TV series), the 2 brothers also have a sister, Lisa. What if Lisa was Mortal Kombat's Estella?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Or, what if their mother was both Miss Havisham and Estella? Because in the end, the 2 brothers take her with them, like Pip once took Estella away from the misery that had simmered for so many years in its own rancid, deadly broth. Like Pip in David Lean's movie adaptation, they could summon the same performative utterance to lift the curse: "I have come back, Miss Havisham! I have come back! To let in the sunlight!" Like him, they would then rip the curtains and wooden panels from the windows to finally let the day in, and take the poor woman outside with them, thus making the last words of the novel their own:
"I took her hand in mine, and we went out of the ruined place; and, as the morning mists had risen long ago when I first left the forge, so the evening mists were rising now, and in all the broad expanse of tranquil light they showed to me, I saw no shadow of another parting from her."
Tumblr media
By a route obscure and lonely,    Haunted by ill angels only, Where an Eidolon, named NIGHT,    On a black throne reigns upright, I have reached these lands but newly    From an ultimate dim Thule— From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,        Out of SPACE—Out of TIME. Bottomless vales and boundless floods,    And chasms, and caves, and Titan woods,    With forms that no man can discover    For the tears that drip all over;    Mountains toppling evermore    Into seas without a shore;    Seas that restlessly aspire,    Surging, unto skies of fire;    Lakes that endlessly outspread    Their lone waters—lone and dead,—    Their still waters—still and chilly    With the snows of the lolling lily. By the lakes that thus outspread Their lone waters, lone and dead,— Their sad waters, sad and chilly With the snows of the lolling lily,— By the mountains—near the river    Murmuring lowly, murmuring ever,—    By the grey woods,—by the swamp    Where the toad and the newt encamp,—    By the dismal tarns and pools    Where dwell the Ghouls,—    By each spot the most unholy—    In each nook most melancholy,—    There the traveller meets, aghast,    Sheeted Memories of the Past—    Shrouded forms that start and sigh    As they pass the wanderer by—    White-robed forms of friends long given,    In agony, to the Earth—and Heaven. For the heart whose woes are legion    ’T is a peaceful, soothing region—    For the spirit that walks in shadow    ’T is—oh, ’t is an Eldorado! But the traveller, travelling through it,    May not—dare not openly view it;    Never its mysteries are exposed    To the weak human eye unclosed;    So wills its King, who hath forbid    The uplifting of the fring'd lid;    And thus the sad Soul that here passes    Beholds it but through darkened glasses. By a route obscure and lonely,    Haunted by ill angels only, Where an Eidolon, named NIGHT, On a black throne reigns upright,    I have wandered home but newly    From this ultimate dim Thule. Edgar Allan Poe, Dream-Land

BurnBunny & Here's Why!! ❤️‍🔥🐇
Actually, for a while, I didn't know why I shipped Burnin and Miruko. And honestly? My ultimate reason now is because I just like to.
They're two enjoyable characters to me and I just like seeing them as a ship.
Over the months (since the end of last July) of shipping them, I have found what makes them an enjoyable ship for me and why right now they're my favorite Miruko and Burnin ship.
Now, I'm not writing this to convince anyone to ship them, I don't care if you do or don't. Because so, I honestly don't care for any disputes over any "points" I make here. If you disagree, I respectfully you just keep it to yourself.
This post is written for fun. I don't care for the "Well, I like this ship better" or anything like that.
For once, how about we remember what boundaries are and that shipping shouldn't be some high school debate? Okay? Okay then!
Onwards to what I came to love about BurnBunny!
❤️‍🔥🐇
The Characters!
It is no secret that Miruko is my #1 GODDESS of BNHA. I adore her, I think she's great and I love how both her voice actresses (Sayaka Kinoshita and Anairis Quinoñes) portray her voice in sub and dub.
I bring up voice acting because that's also something else I love about Burnin. I grew up listening to Lisa Ortiz since I watched 4Kids so hearing her as Burnin in dub did give me pleasant flashbacks to my childhood Saturday mornings. I'm also giving props to Misato Kawauchi here.
I just like both their sub and dub voices, okay?
Besides, the voices, I find both characters fun from personality to design.
They're underrated. First off, Burnin should get a lot more credit for dealing with Endeavor and the agency. Like??? I do not see a lot of other female sidekicks for him (the women in WHM were actually not from his agency). Burnin is really the only woman I see. Could you imagine being in her shoes?
And then Miruko?! Oh my gosh, don't get me started on Miruko! She has to be emotionally, mentally and physically exhausted hopping from place to place BY HERSELF.
Let me be real here, if I didn't like either of these characters, I wouldn't see the point of having a ship for them.
If I ship characters, that means I like them individually, too. I just never understood having a ship yet hating one of the characters. I just don't and never will.
Shipping them has made me appreciate them more because of just how much deep diving I have done to understand each character (more so Miruko). I explore what I can and get my mind going to come up with headcanons and theories and the like.
Potential Chemistry!
They are alike by personality and they kinda balance each other out. They can easily understand each other without having to guess and not tiptoe around problems. They can be blunt with each other.
Hear me out now.
Both Miruko and Burnin come off as characters to me as people who do love a thrill, who doesn't mind getting dirty, but at the same time does want someone to comfort them without babying them. Want someone to tell them how it is, but also is capable of being gentle and considerate.
Off rip, neither of them would hesitate to make a move. To me, Miruko would be the one to realize if she likes someone, when the time is right, she is telling that person how she feels. She would regret not doing it. Burnin, same way. She comes off as a straightforward person.
They would also understand each other. Miruko and Burnin can confide in each other because of having similar workplace experiences. They can go home to each other and talk to each other about their days of having to deal with other Heroes and saving people. They can comfort each other after some asshole criticizes them unfairly. They can treat each other to cuddles and making snacks and pillow forts because that's what they know the other needs.
The Vibes!! The Idea of Them!
Just think!! You got these two badass, gorgeous women! They could be a power couple in my eyes, have each other's backs both be it fighting villains or grocery shopping together.
Burnin can be the sun to Miruko's moon!
Just see the vision here, folks!
The idea of these two being all cute with each other?
THEY HAVE HEIGHT DIFFERENCE, BY THE WAY!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Fics!
It's just so easy to writing these two, even with how little I have to go off from canon. They haven't interacted once in canon, but for my fics?
I was able to come up with a shared backstory that just fits! They went to rival hero schools, met one time during a joint school event, became friends while also having a rivalry and stayed friends for years before deciding "Hey, we should be girlfriends".
Like I need this fandom to enjoy rare pairs and F/F ships a little bit more because oh my gosh these two!!
I visualize when I write so, just the mental image of Miruko and Burnin being all soft and sweet with each other has me! Like Miruko is at the height that Burnin can kiss her forehead, just saying.
Look, after months of writing fluff fics of them I have accepted it's what I needed in life. Remember when I mentioned how shipping them made me appreciate and understand the characters? Even with, again, little from canon?
Yeah, writing them in fics got the creativity flowing and forging a relationship that could exist while also giving each other character more individually. It feels great. They're both characters that work like empty canvas that I can add on more colors onto.
They Can Be Anything I Want!
Given that this is a rare pair, they're not very popular in this fandom. While, yeah, some may say it sucks but I also came to appreciate them being so underrated.
For one, shipping discourse. I doubt there is any discourse about Burnin and Miruko as a ship because little people think about them as a ship. I doubt I will find them in some ship war because again, they're underrated.
And the beauty is I can write them how I envision them to be and rarely I'll get someone to oppose my vision. (I haven't yet and I don't want to.)
What sometimes suck about liking a popular ship is the amount of discourse and fights you'll see around it. Be it preferences in bed or who cooks and who cleans... just arguments over every little thing.
It's like people can't have different opinions, everyone must agree on one vision for that ship. 🙄
It's tiresome, it's stupid and that's why I stay in my own little corner.
Now I have my own vision of BurnBunny I enjoy and I'm sure one or two people may not see them how I do. But no matter how much I love them as a ship, I'm not the "top shipper" for them and will dictate how others should see them, just throwing that out there.
❤️‍🔥🐇
That's really I have to say for these two? Again, not looking to start a whole group of BurnBunny shippers (that sounds like a lot of work...). Not trying to convince anyone they're the best ship or anything.
Just voicing my thoughts! Just rambling here.

15 DAYS OF SONGFICS FOR HALLOWEEN (OCT 15TH - OCT 31ST)
‘Go right through,’ Vester said into the intercom as the gates swung slowly open. I drove slowly forward. As I pulled up to the front of the house, amid the array of cars sitting outside, I could hear Lisa babbling in the back seat which made me happy and sad at the same time. I was happy she was so excited to be coming home but it gave me a twinge of guilt too. She was still so young and this was the first time in an age that she had been her happy chatty self.
I pulled over and climbed out, pulling her from the back seat so we could walk up to the front door which swung open the moment we were on the porch, revealing Jerry. I smiled at him and he returned it though I could see the sadness and pity in his eyes.
'Hey,’ he said, stepping aside so I could step in, my hand in Lisa’s. 'Uncle Jerry!’ she said, throwing herself at him. He chuckled and bent down so he could hug her. 'Hey kiddo,’ he chuckled as she wrapped her little arms around his neck. 'I’m staying here tonight with Daddy,’ she said with a big smile on her face. My heart panged again. 'I know,’ Jerry said with the same enthusiasm. 'Where is he?’ she asked looking around for him. 'I said ten,’ I said checking my watch. It was bang on. 'He’s upstairs,’ Jerry said, 'late night.’
My mouth fell into a tight line with annoyance. We had arranged for him to be here as soon as Lisa stepped through the door. I was going to leave her here for the night but there were a few things I needed to straighten out first. Jerry seemed to notice my annoyance and jumped out in front of it, always the bodyguard.
'He’ll be right down I’m sure,’ he said. 'I bet,’ I said bitterly, 'alone?’ 'Were you having a sleepover?’ Lisa asked excitedly, 'I am. Daddy and me are going to watch movies.’ 'I know your Daddy told me! I gotta say you got me mighty jealous,’ he chuckled, nudging her cheek with his knuckle. 'Well you can stay over too Uncle Jerry,’ she said rolling her eyes, 'ooh Mama. You and Jerry should sleep over too! We can all watch movies!’ 'Oh, um,’ I said nervously. I felt tears sting my eyes as Jerry looked up at me along with Lisa, except where a smile was on her face sympathy was plastered all over his. This had been the problem we’d been having. She didn’t get it. She was still too young. She didn’t understand why we lived somewhere else now. Or why her Daddy now lived in our old house all alone. She didn’t understand that we now had to arrange a day for her Daddy to see her when she used to be able to walk across the hall. Thankfully, before I had to answer a voice echoed out from behind us and Mary, our housekeeper, stood watching us.
'Miss Lisa that is never you!’ she smiled as Lisa ran to her with her arms open. 'Miss Mary!’ she giggled as the older woman picked her up and slung her on her hip as if it were nothing. 'I swear you were never that tall the last time I saw you!’ 'She grows an inch a day I swear,’ I smiled. 'Well how about we keep that up with some cookies? I was just going to bake some,’ she said looking at me, 'if that’s okay?’ 'Of course,’ I said. She nodded and led Lisa, who had broken into a babbling story, into the kitchen. As they disappeared I sighed and looked at Jerry and then upstairs. I thought about the last time I had been here.
'So that’s it? The end? Just like that?’ Elvis said. He was standing at the top of the stairs looking down at me. His face was crumpled in pain and I could tell he was trying not to cry. Tears glinted off of his lower lids threatening to spill over any moment. 'The end has been coming for a long time now you and I both know that,’ I said watching him from where I was standing midway down the stairs. 'So what? You’re just gonna take off? Split up our family? Take Lisa away from me?’ he asked. I was down at the bottom now and he was close behind following me. I whipped around at his words. 'Don’t,’ I said with a sneer, 'don’t you dare blame this on me! I am doing this for Lisa! She deserves two happy parents and right now neither of us are anywhere near that.’ 'Do you still love me?’ he asked. The anger was gone from his voice now, replaced by utter heartache. 'Elvis,’ I said, tears spilling over and down my face. 'Do you love me?’ he asked, pulling me to him. I daren’t look him in the eye. I knew if I did I would crumble. That he’d talk me around and we’d be doing this dance again in a few months or less. 'You know I do,’ I said wiping my face with the back of my hand, 'but it’s not enough.’ 'Isn’t it?’ he said, dropping to his knees and pulling me into him as he sobbed against my torso. I was streaming tears by now but I was biting my lip, trying to keep my sobs inside. Then, I bent down in front of him. He looked at me as I wiped his face silently, 'it should be. It was…for a long time it was enough. But I deserve better Elvis. You deserve better. Our little girl deserves better.’ 'You and Lisa are the most important thing in my life,’ he said. I wanted to laugh but not as much as I wanted to believe him.
This decision hadn’t come out of the blue. It had come after years of arguments, infidelity and unhappiness. It had come after I’d yet again been forced to hear him complain about how unfair his life was. After I had night after night alone whilst he was god knows where. Or worse, laying in bed beside him feeling just as alone.
'We’ll be back together one day,’ he said, 'you’ll see.’ 'I hope you’re right,’ I said with a sniffle, 'but today you gotta let me go.’
He nodded and I slipped out of his grasp, grabbed my bag and headed out the door.
'Want a drink?’ Jerry asked, pulling me from my thoughts. I nodded and the pair of us headed out to the back porch. Jerry called in the kitchen where Lisa was sitting on the counter talking Mary’s ear off as she started weighing out ingredients for cookies. I took myself outside and sat down, listening to the wind as it blew gently through the garden. He appeared a moment later, a rootbeer in each hand, and handed me my drink. I cracked it open and took a small sip as he sat down beside me. We sat in silence for a moment before he finally spoke.
'How are you doing?’ he asked, looking at me. I could feel his gaze burning into me but I refused to look up, worrying it would set me off crying. 'Good,’ I said weakly but when I did look up he raised an eyebrow, 'well, surviving.’ 'Yeah there’s been a lot of that around here at the minute,’ he said instinctively checking behind him to make sure he wasn’t heard. I nodded. When Elvis and I had talked it had mostly been about Lisa. Or small talk. I hadn’t dared ask but now the words were falling out of my mouth before I could stop them.
'How is he?’ I asked, biting my lip. 'A wreck,’ Jerry said honestly. 'I was scared you were going to say that,’ I said sadly. He smiled weakly at me and shrugged, 'no point in lying.’ 'No,’ I said, 'I guess not.’ 'To be honest, we’ve not seen much of him,’ he said, 'he’s stayed put in his room. That first day we were worried he’d done something stupid-’ 'He hasn’t right?’ I asked nervously. 'No, no, nothing like that…I don’t think he would,’ he said, 'he just misses you.’ 'He’s not the only one,’ I sighed. Jerry said nothing but raised his eyebrow for me to continue, 'Lisa.’ 'Ah, how’s she doing?’ 'Not so good,’ I sighed, 'she doesn’t understand…I’ve tried explaining but-’ 'She’s a kid,’ he said. 'Yeah,’ I replied sadly. We fell quiet for a moment and he looked out into the garden and took a sip of his drink, fiddling with the label on it for a moment before he said, 'do you not think you guys could work it out?’ 'Jer,’ I sighed. 'I mean he loves you Y/N,’ he said, 'more than anyone else. I know that. You must know that.’ 'I do,’ I admitted. I was fiddling with my own bottle now trying to ignore the feeling in my chest that felt as though someone was squeezing my heart through my ribcage.
'I mean this…separation or whatever it doesn’t have to be forever right,’ he said. 'No it doesn’t,’ I said, 'and maybe one day we’ll be back like we were but right now…right now I just don’t see that happening.’ 'Maybe if you both-’ 'What stopped fighting? If he stopped sleeping around? If he stopped taking the pills? That’s a lot of ifs Jer,’ I sighed. 'Yeah, I suppose,’ he said, 'I just hate seeing the pair of you unhappy.’ 'I do too,’ I said, placing my hand on his. 'And Lisa…he misses her so much,’ he said with a sad smile. 'I know,’ I said, swallowing thickly, 'she misses him too. I don’t think she’s slept a night in her new room. She just lays in bed with me and cries until she tuckers herself out and falls asleep. Which makes me just want to cry. Or scream. Or get black-out drunk until I can’t feel any of it. But I know it’s the right thing to do. I know that us being together like we are now is no good and I know logically that one day she’ll understand but I just feel like right now she hates me. Like everyone hates me.’ 'She doesn’t hate you,’ Jerry said.
I dropped my gaze as I started to cry. He sat there for a moment, unsure of what to do and then he placed an arm around my shoulder. I couldn’t believe I’d said it. All the things I’d been lying in bed at night thinking about had finally come out of my mouth for the first time and if I were honest, it felt good.
I’d tried to keep myself together for Lisa. I’d tried to make our new home as cosy and welcoming as the old one. She and Elvis had spoken on the phone a couple of times, which to be honest was an improvement. He was trying. And maybe if he continued to try, if he proved that we were what he wanted, maybe we’d manage to figure it out. Though in the back of my mind I was careful to remind myself that he had the habit of doing what was easy rather than what was right.
'Sure feels like I’m the villain here,’ I admitted. 'You’re not the villain,’ a dark gravelly voice said from beside us. As Jerry slipped his arm from around me I looked to find Elvis standing on the porch, Lisa on his hip. Suddenly that heart-crushing feeling came back a little. He was wearing an understated look for him. Simple black pants and a black shirt. But I’d always loved him in all black. His hair was longer than it had been in a while, definitely due for a trim and though he looked a little washed out and tired I had to admit he still looked as handsome as the day we married. Lisa was nestled into the crook of his neck, her dress ruched her up around her thighs from where he was holding her. She looked the most content I’d seen her in weeks.
'Hey kiddo,’ Jerry said standing up, 'you wanna come and see the horses with me?’ 'I want Daddy to come,’ she whined. That had been her go-to mood for some time now. 'I’ll be there in a minute honey,’ he said, sweeping her blonde locks off of her face as he stroked her cheek gently, 'I just wanna speak to Mama for a minute.’
She pouted a little and then nodded allowing herself to be put down. She took Jerry’s hand in an instant and the two started walking out towards the field of horses on the edge of the garden. Elvis slid into the chair beside me watching me intently. I looked away, my face feeling hot as his blue eyes roved over every inch of it. I looked out towards Lisa who was giggling away at whatever she and Jerry were talking about.
'What do you wanna talk about?’ I asked. 'You look good,’ he said at the same time. We caught each other’s eye and after a beat, we both laughed. A genuine, real laugh, 'it sounds good to hear you laugh.’ 'Feels like it’s been forever,’ I admitted. 'I know,’ he said sadly, 'how have you been?’ 'Okay,’ I admitted he looked at me prompting me to continue, 'worried about Lisa… worried about you.’ 'How is she?’ he asked. 'Not so good,’ I said, 'she misses you…we both do.’ 'I miss you both too,’ he said with a sad smile, 'but I’ve been doing a lot of thinking…’
He trailed off looking out towards where Lisa was. Jerry was holding her up with one arm whilst the other clung to a bag of carrots that had always been stashed out by the fence. She was feeding them as they came up to her one by one, so fearless and brave. How I needed to be. I turned so I could watch him carefully, hanging onto every word he said. He turned and looked at me.
‘I know you were right,’ he said. ‘Elvis,’ I said sadly though I didn’t know why. I didn’t know if I wanted to hear whatever he was going to say. I was scared. Even as a kid Lisa was braver than me. ‘And however you want to play this that’s what we’ll do.’ ‘Thank you,’ I said placing my hand on his. ‘If you want a proper schedule for Lisa we can work something out. I mean if I tell the boys they can only arrange things around her they’ll do it. Or if you want to we can play it by ear. I know you’ve got your own stuff,’ he said nervously. I nodded, ‘I’m sure we’ll find the way we want it…might just need a bit of trial and error.’ ‘And I don’t want you to worry about money I mean if we’re going down the…legal route. I don’t want you to-’ ‘Rinse you for all you have?’ I said with a chuckle. Elvis laughed as I continued, ‘you know I’d never do that right?’ ‘I know, I know but you know whatever you need I’ll give you. You’ll always be taken care of. Both of you,’ he said. ‘I know,’ I said. ‘And,’ he said with a heavy sigh looking at me his piercing blue eyes searching my face, ‘and if you figure out what you want and, well, it’s not me I’ll not stand in the way of anything. I want you to be happy. Even if it means you and someone else.’ ‘Elvis,’ I said sadly. I hadn’t even considered it. Another relationship was the last thing on my mind. I had enough to worry about with Lisa and the separation. And if I was being honest with myself at this moment in time I couldn’t see myself with anyone. My leaving wasn’t because I didn’t love him anymore. If anything it was because I loved him more than anything and carrying on like this was destroying me.
‘Don’t,’ he said quietly, ‘don’t tell me it’ll never happen. I’m not stupid y’know. I mean I know you didn’t leave me for someone but I’m not naive enough to think that you might find someone who can give you what I can’t. And I’m not gonna lie. I don’t think I’ll ever be happy about it but I want what’s best for you. For Lisa.’ ‘That’s all I want too,’ I said. He nodded as he leaned in towards me. ‘But can I tell you one thing,’ he said, I nodded, ‘I will always love you. You’re it for me Y/N. And if it’s not meant to be… I just want you to know that.’
I nodded clasping my hand over his. He held it tightly as silent tears started spilling over down my face. He looked sad but he didn’t cry instead he looked away from me. Before I could allow myself to get any sadder Lisa came running full pelt towards us. She clambered up onto his knee as I quickly wiped my eyes, trying to hide that I had been crying. Jerry appeared on the porch seconds later looking a little winded at chasing her.
‘Daddy guess what!?’ she said excitedly. ‘Jerry lets you run riot,’ Elvis smirked looking at his friend. ‘Hey, she’s a quick little thing,’ he said, ‘I looked away for two seconds.’ ‘Sheba had a baby horse!’ she giggled, ‘Jerry said it’s in the barn and it’s bigger than me!’ ‘Perfect size for her to ride right EP?’ Jerry said as she smiled widely at him. ‘Can we go see it?’ she asked excitedly bouncing up and down with this new information. ‘Sure honey,’ he said sliding her off his knee so he could stand up. ‘Mama are you coming too?’ she asked and I nodded standing up. She ran ahead down towards the barn and Jerry took off after her before she got into trouble.
As I stood Elvis looked at me and then leaned down and pressed a kiss to my forehead. I didn’t move. I didn’t hold him in my arms. I just allowed him to kiss me, his large hands on either side of my face before he walked off following where Lisa was going. I took a moment to compose myself.
I wanted to hate him. It would’ve been easier to hate him. But I didn’t. It was because I loved him so much I had to do this. Except now the heartbreak of staying with him was now the heartbreak of being apart.
I don’t have to lay beside you feeling so alone But my baby is crying for his Daddy And asking when he’s coming home
I’m trading one heartbreak for another One kind of pain for a different kind of pain And I wonder if this is gonna hurt even more I’m finally alive but it’s killing who I’m living for

Partner's Brunch
I know I said the next thing I wrote would be "Two Can Plat at this Game," and I did start writing it today, but then my muse struck while I was out work and I knew if I didn't get this written out that I would lose it forever.
Dedicated to @snailsandpuppy-dogtails bc she loves my partner's brunch headcanon
Summary: Every Saturday the team is away on a case, the partners of team members get together and do brunch. They have decided to invite Penelope to join them, even if she's not dating anyone on the team. Right? (Part chat fic, part dialogue, all chaos)
Word count: 2034
Can also be found here on Ao3
In Profiler Partner’s Brunch Bunch group chat
Kristy: Hey, I was thinking, I know she’s not the partner of a profiler, but should we invite Penelope to join us? I know she must be struggling right now, this would probably help her a lot.
Krystall: You know, I was going to suggest the same thing. She might not be a romantic partner to any of them, but she was their work partner, so she totally counts.
Max: I mean I’m easy. I feel like as the newest member I get the absolute least amount of say 😂
Will: Plus, maybe we can push the romantic partner envelope a bit… since she and Luke aren’t working together anymore…
Kristy: Yes, exactly!
Savannah: Damn, Penelope’s gonna be there now??? And I don’t get to hang out with her because I have the AUDACITY to be living in another state? Unfair.
Kristy: Well, I still have to ask her. Give me a minute.
In a chat between Kristy and Penelope
Kristy: Hey, so Krystall, Will, Max, and I have something called the “Profiler Partner Brunch Bunch” and we all get brunch every Saturday the team is away, and I know you’re not dating anyone on the team, but we want to make you an honorary member, make sure you never feel excluded. We’d love it if you could join us on Saturday. I know it’s kind of short notice, but the idea JUST struck us.
Penelope: Kristy Simmons you absolute angel, I would LOVE to.
Penelope: That sounds like so much fun!!! I would love to.
Kristy: Yay!! I’ll add you to the chat.
***
That Saturday, Penelope was greeted by kisses and hugs from her friends. “This is such a cute idea,” she said as they sat down. “Who came up with it?”
“Well for the longest while I was the only one,” Will said. “But then Beth came along, way back when, and she and I started this, and people have been filtering in and out ever since. Alex’s husband came by when he was in town, Kate’s husband, when she was on the team, Savannah, of course, and then everyone else here.”
“Savannah still comes, occasionally, when she’s in town,” Kristy said. “Andrew does too.”
“That’s amazing! Did Lisa ever come, back when she and Luke were still together?” Penelope didn’t know why she was asking about Lisa, especially since Luke had asked her out just a few days before. She still couldn’t quite believe it.
“No, actually,” Will replied.
Penelope had to admit, she was shocked. “Wait, really?”
“Yeah,” Kristy said. “I mean, we invited her and told her she was always welcome, but she never came. Always had to work, I guess.”
“You know,” Krystall said, “I can’t say I ever met her.”
“Me neither,” Max added. “Although I came after her, didn’t I?”
“Yeah, you did,” Kristy confirmed.
“I’ve never heard anyone on the team mention this,” Penelope said. “Do they know?”
Kristy, Will, Krystall, and Max all looked at each other, thinking. “No, I don’t think they do,” Krystall eventually said.
“Not that we’re trying to keep it a secret,” Will added.  “But it hasn’t exactly come up, you know? It’s like our own little support group. It’s nice to talk to people who understand how hard it can be to have your partner gone a lot.”
“Yeah,” Max said. “It can put a strain on any relationship. New, or old, so this is how we cope with that, relieve some of the stress. And yeah, it sounds selfish, because they’re off risking their lives and hunting down the worst in humanity, but it can be hard being the partner of someone who’s gone all the time, it’s just a fact.” She took a sip of her drink. “Plus the mimosas are awesome.”
“A very welcome bonus,” Kristy agreed, taking a sip of her own.
“Penelope, are you okay?” Krystall asked her. “You seem like you’re panicking.”
Penelope thought she had been doing a good job of keeping her emotions from showing on her face, but apparently she was wrong. All that talk about how hard it could be to be with someone who was gone all the time… especially a new relationship… it scared her a bit. She really liked Luke, and she wanted whatever they were starting to work out. “Can you guys keep a secret?”
Her four friends looked at each other, slightly confused, then back at her. “Yeah.”
“Luke asked me out the other day,”
“Holy shit,” Will whisper-screamed. “Are you serious?”
“Yeah. And all this talk about how hard it can be dating someone who’s gone all the time is making me kinda nervous. Actually it’s making me pretty scared.”
“Well that’s a good thing, right?” Max asked. “Because if you’re scared, it means you want it to work out, which means you’re willing to put the work in.”
Penelope was unsure. “I guess so…”
Krystall took her hand. “Sweetheart, you have nothing to be scared about.”
“What do you mean?”
“Because if you want it to work, and he wants it to work,”
“And he does,” Kristy added. “He really, really does, trust us.”
“Then it will,” Krystall finished. “Everyone can see that there’s something between you two.”
“Including me,” Max said. “And I’ve only seen you together once.”
Penelope turned to her, shocked. “Wait, how?”
“It’s the way he looks at you,” all four people she was sitting with answered simultaneously.
“Wow, okay.”
“So, details,” Kristy said, shoving her lightly. “We need details! When? Where? How? And when? Seriously, when? You just left the team, and they’re not even back from their first case without you!”
Penelope felt a blush slowly creep up her neck and cheeks as she recalled that night. “It was at my going away party. He pulled me away for a water break and said, ‘I was wondering, since we’re not going to work together anymore, maybe I could take you to dinner?’ He was really nervous, too, blushing and stammering over his words and such. It was actually pretty cute.”
“Wait,” Krystall said. “I saw that! Oh, that’s so exciting!”
“He couldn’t wait one more second to ask you out,” Will said. “And you wondered how we could all tell he had something for you.”
Penelope blushed and looked down to her drink. “I guess that’s fair.”
“So when are you two going out?” Max asked. “And where’s he taking you?”
“I don’t know, we didn’t really get the chance to talk about it yet.” As if on cue, Penelope’s phone went off. A text from Luke. “Actually, that’s him right now.”
“Well, answer it!” Kristy says excitedly.
Penelope unlocked her phone and read the text from Luke. “He says that at the rate they’re going with the case right now, they should be back by Wednesday at the latest, unless they hit a major roadblock, and would I be interested in going out that night, and if not, the next day?”
“Oh my god that’s amazing,” Max blurted. “I mean he wants to take you out on a Wednesday, a night that’s not very popular for dates, as soon as he gets back from a case? He wants to go out with you as soon as he possibly can, which I mean checks out, since he asked you out right away after you left, so it means he’s super into you.” Everyone else stared at her. “What?”
“You sound like a profiler,” Will told her.
“Spencer talks a lot. You learn a thing or two.”
“Well, what are you going to respond?” Kristy asks Penelope.
She spoke as she typed her response. “Sounds good to me! Can’t wait.”
Luke: Me neither.
Luke: I’m really glad you said yes. I kinda like you a lot, so I was really nervous you were going to say and our whole friendship would be *woosh* out the window.
Penelope: Well, I kinda like YOU a lot, so the answer was easy. Come back soon and safe, okay?
Luke: I promise <3
Penelope bit her lip and grinned at the little heart emoticon Luke sent her. Just then, Kristy’s phone went off. “It’s a text from Matt. We’re driving to the family of a victim’s house right now to talk to them, and Luke is looking at his phone and grinning like an idiot. What are the odds he’s texting Penelope?” She looked up from her phone at the woman in question. “Can I tell him?”
“Go ahead.”
Kristy spoke out loud as she typed. “One hundred percent. I’m with her right now and she’s texting him.” A pause as Matt responded, and then, “He wants to know what we’re doing.”
“Is this what High School is like nowadays?” Krystall asked. 
“Probably,” Max replied. Then to Kristy she said, “Tell him that we’re doing a Partner’s Brunch and she is an honorary member because she used to be on the team.”
“He says, hopefully she won’t be an honorary member much longer, the way he was smiling at his phone. Now that she’s off the team, maybe he’ll get his head out his ass and actually ask her out.”
“I want to see that smile he’s talking about,” Penelope said.
“I’ll ask him if he can send a picture.” A moment as they waited for his reply. “He says he can't, he's put his phone away and stopped smiling as much.”
“Well then let me fix that,” Penelope said, pulling her phone back out.
Penelope: Give any thought to where you’re going to take me?
Luke: There’s this new place downtown that supposedly has AMAZING vegetarian options.
Luke: And live music and dancing, if that’s something that interests you.
“Damn, who knew Luke as a romantic?” Will asked after Penelope shared these texts with them.”
“Doesn’t surprise me,” Krystall said. “Not after some of the stories David has shared with me.”
Penelope: That interests me very much, Luke.
Penelope: You better hurry up and catch that guy, because I’m very excited now.
Luke: I'll do my best for you <3
“We got a picture!” Kristy announced. She showed her phone to them, and on it there was a picture of Luke staring down at his phone, a grin stretching practically from ear to ear, and he was, without a doubt, blushing.
Luke: Will do, Chica
“What’s with Chica?” Max asked.
“He called me it once years ago because I look like the absolute last person on earth who would have the last name Garcia, and he made a joke about it, and I told him I hate the name, which, I don’t, but I couldn’t have him know that, and he’s called me it a lot since. At first I think it was just kind of to spite me, but now it’s cute.”
Luke: Any reason Matt would have just tried (and failed) to stealthily take a picture of me???
Penelope: I’m out with Kristy, Krystall, Will, and Max right now, and while you and I were texting, he texted Kristy saying you were grinning at your phone and blushing and what were the odds you were texting me?
Penelope: She said 100% and I said I wanted to see you blushing, because I didn’t believe you could. I was wrong.
Luke: WELL I’M BLUSHING EVEN MORE, NOW!!!
“Matt wants to know, what the fuck she just said to him, because he’s blushing even harder and typing furiously.”
Penelope: Matt wants to know what we’re talking about because you’re losing your mind over there.
Luke: Can I tell him?
Penelope: Sure, go ahead.
A minute passed by before Luke texted again.
Luke: BAHAHA HE’S LOSING HIS FUCKING MIND
Luke: TARA ALMOST DROVE UP A LIGHT POLE
Luke: I’M LAUGHING SO HARD, HELP, I CAN’T BREATHE
Penelope: LUKE, WHAT DID YOU SAY TO THEM???
Luke: “Well, Matt, Penelope and I are just discussing where I’m going to take her out for dinner for our date once we get back from this case.”
Just then Kristy burst out into laughter. 
“Matt told you that Luke told him?” Penelope guessed.
“Yep.”
Luke: Guess the cat’s out of the bag now Penelope: Good. I hate cats being bags.

Hello. May I please have comfort headcanons of Dainsleif, Ayato, and Kaeya (separately, please) comforting their (gender neutral) significant other who is scared of thunderstorms? Thank you. Have a good day/night.
Tumblr media
dainsleif, ayato, and kaeya comforting their s/o who's scared of thunderstorms!
a/n : finna be workin myself for you guys, workin hard so i can please you LMFOA, apologies if it's short. gn! reader.
requests : opened!
Tumblr media
i had to squeeze all my brain juice for dainsleif...
his heart hurts whenever he sees you being scared or just covering your ears, although he doesn't really get why you're scared of it, but respects it.
he immediately sits beside you next to the window with water drops going down, softly telling you stories about his adventures with the traveller.
i have a very weird hc that he's slightly demanding in a good way, so i think he'd probably make you sleep with him rubbing circles on your back.
if that doesn't work, he'll just hug you until the thunderstorm is gone, after that he waits for you to calm down with no pressure at all, and asks for you to go on a walk with him while it's still cold outside, he makes sure that another thunderstorm isn't gonna comeback anytime soon.
if you don't like going outside or if you don't like the cold, you two would just stay inside the rest of the day under blankets while drinking warm tea.
"dear.. are you alright?" dainsleif asked as he sat beside you, thunder could be heard as you shivered. he gets out of his position to get blankets and came back after awhile to put it on you both as he covered your ears with both of his hands.
Tumblr media
i also think ayato would make warm tea for you, tries to distract you with other things, talking about your and his interests. in fact ayato's voice could easily make you fall asleep.
his warm hands going up and down your arms as he sits behind you is very comforting, also would like to listen to you about anything, if you want to talk about something important, it would be the right time to discuss it there.
ayato would ask help from thoma too, actually one time thoma and ayaka came back to the estate drenched in water because they had to do something with the traveller.
they saw you shivering in ayato's arms as they asked what was wrong. ayato slowly explained as he saw you asleep in his arms and combing through your hair with his hands.
"fufu, y/n has already fallen asleep, thoma, would you help me make them tea once they wake up?" ayato asked looking at thoma while ayaka was beside him. "of course!" he smiled, as ayato carried you to a bedroom, after sometime, you woke up with tea on the bed table.
Tumblr media
kaeya is such a tease im sorry
but he also feels really bad, stops the teasing for awhile but continues on after the thunderstorm is gone and after you calmed down.
he'd also read you stories since he probably gets some books from the library that lisa let him borrow.
also tells you about the mischief klee has been doing every day, totally the person you could come to if you wanna laugh and ignore your fears.
i don't think he knows how to make tea.. so he makes warm food for you, any food of your choice.
he heard the door open slightly, he peeked through out the kitchen to see what was happening and you both saw klee drenched as he laughed.
kaeya malewife arc, he makes warm food for the both of you, tells klee she should dry off and take a bath first, after klee finishes drying up, she hands you her humpty dumptys that aren't bombs and are just plushies as you squished both of her cheeks on her face.
klee actually talked a lot, tiring you and kaeya, once you all got tired you all snuggled up in a blanked and slept, forgetting about the thunderstorm.
"klee? what are you doing here?" you questioned, "well, the headquarters was too far already and i got tired. so i decided to come here instead! you and uncle kaeya both live here anyway." she sang as you got up and headed to the bathroom to dry her up as she changed into new clothes, while kaeya was done cooking for the both of you with a small smile on his face.

#egilb3rt. independent, private and highly selective elena gilbert from the vampire diaries. canon divergent and headcanon based with some influences from the show. s1-3 based, will write post s3 with some plotting. elena is 18+ and a college student. madelyn cline is elena's default faceclaim unless interacting with her doppelgangers, nina will be used for those verses only. i thrive off of plotted threads and dynamics, therefore they will come first for that reason but plotting is not necessary either to interact. triggering material. anti delena.
hi, my name is lisa. i'm 25, go by she/her.
001. elena is a college student at the beginning of season one when she meets stefan who brings her back to life after the death of both her parents in a fatal car crash that nearly ended her life too, though she deals with survivors guilt and ptsd that is continuously tested in her day to day living. ( elena's main s1-3 verse )
002. triggers apply. such as, ptsd, depression, blood, death and so on. if this is not something you can handle, you probably should steer clear of this blog and content due to the show having supernatural themes. nsfw material could appear on this blog from time to time, as elena is 18+ and mun is of age - i won't put it under a read more but i will tag everything.
003. i am open to any and all kinds of shipping and dynamics, canon and original characters are more than welcome. the only ship i refuse to write romantically is delena, and even in verses where elena is single or dating stefan she doesn't like damon due to all the damage he has caused her and the people she cares about. elena is multi verse and crossover friendly. i love to plot and ship in general, whether that be familial, platonic or romantic please consider me down &lt;3
004. i don't care how you choose to format or if you use icons/gifs, i am here to write and have fun.

TAKE MY MOMEY✨💳✨💳✨💳✨💳✨💳✨
Zhongly, diluc, kaeya, venti, xiao, lisa and jean reactig to their s/o practicing self/human/fruit-ninja
in front of them or with them in the same room (Sh in every form bc I love angst :')
✨💳✨💳✨💳✨💳✨💳✨
OBV YOU CAN IGNORE THIS REQUEST OR SOME CHARACTER
TY.
(SORRY FOR THE TW)
Synopsis :
Reader practice SH around their partner
Characters :
Zhongli
Diluc
Kaeya
Venti
Xiao
Lisa
Warning :
Mentions of self harm, angst obviously, reader cutting (zhongli, venti) /burning (diluc) /freezing (kaeya) /starving (xiao) and sleep depriving themself (lisa) ,
A/N :
Don't worry about triggering me, I need way more than that, but people who are easily triggered I won't recommend reading since I talk about most form of SH, even some that may be considered as anxious behavior so everyone is warned now! By the way the headcanon/scenarios may be short, I'm not particularly inspired by this subject and there is a lot of character, I also took out jean, I genuinely didn't knew what to write for her, I'll hope you'll still enjoy it
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Zhongli :
Zhongli is a very observant man, he can and will see if you try to self harm near him, however he can't stop you when he isn't near
And I know for a fact, that for some people, self harm is almost addictive, a way to relieve themselves
So usually you self harm in secret in the bathroom or when he is at the funeral parlor with hu tao
He only see what happened after
He is wise and know lecturing you like a child won't do any good if only make you feel worse, so when he see the damages, he only guide you toward the first aid kit and bandage to heal you
"Darling, I know it's hard for you, and right now you use this to cope with things that I may have no idea about, but please, don't do this, a human life is already short enough, I don't want to loose you sooner than I should, we have all life before us, so I promise things will get better, give yourself time"
Pressing his forehead against yours, he kissed you gently while his thumbs stroke the back of your hands
But if really he had to come home while you're doing it
He will walk toward you slowly and make his presence known so you don't get frightened before holding your hand in his to make you release the sharp object you used to hurt yourself
And then again he will only tell you he feel sad you that you needed to do this ; he will never try to make you feel guulty, he know that's not the right solution and he is patient enough to make things right for you
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Diluc :
I'd like to imagine that to parrallel with diluc vision his s/o hurt themselves with something hot
It's technically considered by many psychologist that a shower, starting from a certain temperature is considered self harm, even if unconscious
So usually dilic find small burn on your skin when the two of you cuddle or just sleep together at night
And he don't like it
He'll start to reschedule his days to spend them with you and to know what's going on, if someone is bullying you or something
He don't think about self harm as an option in the first place
But even while following you around during the days after a few weeks he continue to find new burn on your back, arm and legs
And since he usually take his shower before you during the evening he don't get to see how hot us the water
But tonight you both were supposed to go on a date together and you were both late so to gain some time you took your shower together
You were the one in charge of the temperature of the water and you mindlessly set it as hot as possible for a human to bear
When only a drop touched diluc's skin he finally knew where you would get all your burns
He didn't say a thing, he knew this was something either unconscious or you didn't wanted to talk about, otherwise you would have done so, instead he start to make a point about the two of you showering together "to be more romantic" was his excuse when he mostly wanted to make sure you didn't burnt yourself more
And if it doesn't work or if he can't always shower with you he'll make modifications in the bathroom to either prevent you from setting the water that hot or to let you set it that hot but only acceptably hot water would come out in order to prevent your burns and if you ever tell him the water isn't as hot as usual he would only answer that the water is the same, you just got used to the temperature
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kaeya :
I feel like to kaeya, a good parrallel would be his s/o having no regard when it comes to their body temperature
They could be in dragonspine, freezing to death and they won't search for a source of heat, they just don't care
And at first kaeya thought he finally found someone who can "handle the cold" as he say it
But when you are too cold for too long you start to get hypothermia
At first it was just your skin being really red due to the cold
And other times he would find burn, but not burn made by heat, burn made by extreme cold
He understood it was really serious when your limb started to turn blue from the lack of heat, at any moment you could loose use of them and even then when kaeya proposed you a fire to sit by and a hot drink you refused
He insisted though, trying to coax you with charming words and all
But still, you stood your grounds
It doesn't mean he will let you hurt yourself, if his charms aren't doing the trick, holding you on a blanket to make a burrito out of said blanket with you inside will
He then place the burrito right in front of the fire, and, understanding that you weren't immune to the cold, just using it as a way of self harm, he will from then on check on you and won't let you go to a cold place like dragon spine alone
It's quite the hard way to ensure your security but he cares and that's what matter
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Venti :
As far as venti could remember being with you, he always saw you playing with scissors, blade and sharps tools all the time
He thought it was just an habit you took with wielding your weapon all the time on adventure or just to occupy your hand
And the new cuts on your skin were just accident, after all playing with blades mean you can get cut from time to time
And since he is talking almost non stop he almost never hear the whimpers of pain you let out from time to time
Until it was the anniversary of the death of his long lost dear friend
For the whole day it was rare for him to say anything, and he didn't reacted much either, he looked like a shell of himself
But still, as always, you played with a blade, this time a knife you found laying around or maybe a dagger rosaria gave you for your own birthday
And today venti was clingy, staying at your side at all cost, one leg thrown over yours, he could almost sit on your lap at this point
And when the blade cut you skin, you couldn't back down the little sound you emitted, almost mute
But venti heard
He looked at your wrist and saw le blade was pressed against you wrist
He then realized that all you previous cut were way too clean to be just accident
Each time they were on purpose
And this time weren't an exception
When you noticed venti was looking you froze, not wanting to alarm him more
Gently his hand took knife/dagger from yours, setting it as far as possible
He kissed the freshly made wound, and all the other who left scars on your skin before holding you quite close to him
"no playing with blades from now on, it's an order from the all mighty lord barbatos, he decided you must live, and give him affection, now go on"
It may looks like he was playing, but the sound of his voice was sad
You better give him his affection before he start pouting though
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Xiao :
Xiao doesn't know how a human being is supposed to take care of themselves
He know they need to eat, sleep, and be entertained, but he doesn't know how much they need each thing
That's why he doesn't see the problem when you started to starve youself on purpose, not because you wanted to loose weight, but because in a way, not eating was a way to maintain control over your life, at least in your mind, even if you were in constant pain from the lack of food and more tired
Xiao genuinely thought that just eating a bowl of almond tofu with him from time to time was enough for you to live
But that's until you really wanted to go and see parts of liyue that are difficult to access because of the high montains and you brought xiao along
During the ascension you felt weak, it's been at least 2 or 3 days you haven't eating because xiao didn't either
And the final stretch where you escalated the last peak where when all your strength gave up on you
You fell of the montains while screaming, fortunately xiao manage to catch you before you even reached the ground
Under the shock you said nothing, obly gripping quite hardly xiao's neck
He tried to put you down but you immediately fell, your legs giving up on you
Finding you state quite concerning he immediately brought you to madame ping, even if it meant going to liyue harbor
She quickly examined you and eclared you weren't sick, but you were still in pretty bad conditions without eating for says straight
Xiao wanted to tell you how worried he was and how humans are weak and how starving yourself in hope of being thinner was stupid, but seeing your face he knew it wasn't for these reasons, you were doing it to punish yourself fir something, you were hurting yourself voluntarily and you didn't gained anything from it
Instead of telling you how stupide you were, he just hugged you
From then on he came one tile each morning, each lunch time and each evening making sure you ate something, yes even if you weren't hungry, and yes even if that's only a small portion of food
Xiao in my opinion can't cook for the life of him so instead he ask yanxiao or cloud retainer to make you food
He even brought one time to eat with the fellow blue adepti, hoping her appetite would encourage you to eat along
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lisa :
Lisa is someone who love to sleep or take a nap
And for a long time she insisted for the two of you to take nap together after your afternoon tea
While she layed down next to you and fell asleep you usually sneak around the library to read whatever you wanted and cale back before she wake up
At night, in the confort of your shared home, you usually only slept an hour of two
You weren't an insomniac, you just forced yourself to stay awake
You called it being productive and a night owl
Professional would have called that retarding the next day to gain control over your life
And more commonly people called that self harm but in a passive way
Lisa didn't noticed for a long time
The long time it needed for your body to not be able to stand anymore with only coffee and so little sleep
One second lisa was talking, her back facing you
The second you fell on the ground with a loud thud and she ran to where you were
She brought you to barbara in the church, where you were declared sleep deprived and that's why your body collapsed like this
Lisa was genuinely concerned but a bit mad at herself too, how could she not notice the way you lived was unhealthy when she lived with you
You slept for almost 24 hours which was concerning in itself but you body needed it
When you woke up lisa came quickly before hugging yiu as if her life depended on it
Frol then on she forced you to lay down and close your eyes, and would let herself fall asleep only if she kbew you were too
You two could only hope it won't lead to the both of you being sleep deprived
~hope you'll like it~
🌸Request are open🌸
