"You don't understand me! I just want you to be a normal boyfriend Rafe!!"
You shout and get up from Rafe's bed, your eyes burning.
"I'm a cool boyfriend! The only problem is that you want to be a bitch!" Rafe says, getting up too and shouting even louder
"No! You're not a cool boyfriend, you're a crazy person who keeps chasing me like he's obsessed with me!!!"

Rafe was on the balcony of his mansion, waiting for you, as you had agreed to meet there. As always, Rafe was impatient with your delay, he paced back and forth until he noticed you getting out of the car in front of his mansion. Rafe give a smile, after finally You have arrived, but he sees you getting out of JJ Maybank's car.
When Rafe sees this, his intestines scream with pain and his heart screams with hate.
When you enter Rafe's mansion, you can already see his frown.
"What was my love?" You ask, dropping your backpack and going to hug him.
"nothing, my goddess, and my father called me... and I have to stop by the company"
Rafe lies, giving a small smile to appear more casual.
"But does it have to be now? What about me?" You ask, pouting and crossing your arms.
"the mansion and my card are all yours, okay? I promise I won't be long" Rafe says, taking the car keys and kissing your cheek.
You were lying in Rafe's room, looking at your cell phone, until you saw very serious news about your friend JJ. He had been a victim of murder. you are completely in shock You were picking things up, to see what had happened and how it happened. But before you can leave, you see Rafe walking into the room.
"already leaving my love?" Rafe asks, stalling you from passing.
"Rafe, you don't know what happened" you say excitedly. When will you try to prolong the matter.
Rafe ends up interrupting you and you get confused.
"and the dirty Pogue comes up? Oh, I know, I killed him" Rafe speaks normally, Sitting on the bed and taking off your shoes
You were perplexed by what your boyfriend was saying
"Rafe....what did you do?" You ask, sitting down cautiously and with tears in your eyes.
Rafe had his back to you and you felt him let out a laugh. You were getting scared
"You know...there are a lot of bastards who want to harm you...and I'm just protecting my wife"
Rafe says, turning around and taking your hands and smoothing them with a smile.
"just tell me what you did" you say, still perplexed and motionless
Rafe rolls his eyes and takes a deep breath.
"remember Jonas heatwee? He slapped you on your ass, so I...I poured gasoline on him and burned him"
Your eyes widen at that confession, and you immediately try to free yourself from Rafe's hand, from his hands, but he was squeezing. And he gave you a cold, dark look.
"There's also Paul McKay, he was your boyfriend, before we were dating, right? I kind of threw him down the stairs, in his house"
Rafe says this, leaving you in tears, Paul was your first boyfriend and you two became friends after the breakup, but unfortunately he died...for Rafe.
"and now it was dirty Pougue's turn" Rafe finishes with a huge smile and you free yourself from his touch.
"You're crazy Rafe.... it shouldn't reach this level"
You speak with eyes full of tears
"You had to thank me! I do everything for you! And sometimes I follow you down the street to your house, to check if you're okay"
Rafe says this as if it were proof of love, but this was proof of madness
"oh my god....I'm dating a sick person..." You shake your head and cry with intense tears
"I'm a Great boyfriend!!! I love you so, so much" Rafe says, taking your face and stroking it.
"You don't understand me! I just want you to be a normal boyfriend Rafe!!"
You shout and get up from Rafe's bed, your eyes burning.
I'm a cool boyfriend! The only problem is that you want to be a bitch!" Rafe says, getting up too and shouting even louder
"No! You're not a cool boyfriend, you're a crazy person who keeps chasing me like he's obsessed with me!!!"
When you shout that, Rafe will slap you in the face
"oh my god, baby...I didn't mean to hurt you..."
Rafe says, approaching you and holding your face, then he gives you several kisses on the cheeks. But you could only cry
"Can you stop obsessing over me?" You talk to him hugging you
"no, of course not. You and my life, I depend on you"
To be continued

In the core of Derse lies Aradia’s missing, presumed-dead Dream Self, dressed in rags.
Maybe her Dream Self survived because her realself hadn't awakened on Derse when she died. Their connection hadn't been established, so Dream Aradia hadn't yet started reflecting her realself's injuries.
Actually, if that theory's correct, it means that the John from Davesprite’s timeline may have survived through his own unawakened Dream Self - and that all Future Dave needed to do to get his friend back was travel to Prospit's core.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Her dream body is consumed by Jack's First Guardian flames. This creates a feedback loop similar to the one that destroyed Jadebot, with identical results.
Tumblr media
She's awake, baby!
Tumblr media
And she's a fucking God Tier, which is amazing and breaks so many rules.
First of all, God Tiering is supposed to merge your realself with your Dream Self by sacrificing the former. Aradia doesn’t have a living realself, and sacrificed her Dream Self instead. Plus, the sacrifice was instantly undone!
Second of all, this is supposed to happen on your Quest Cocoon, which Aradia is many miles from. She did appear to be sleeping on a Time symbol, which may have served as a substitute Quest Cocoon, but that just raises further questions! What the hell is going on!?
Tumblr media
The only person more confused than I am is Aradia herself, who appears to have had no idea that this was going to happen.
Tumblr media
Theories aside, let’s take a moment to celebrate. Aradia’s been completely resurrected, and her cheery demeanor has returned in full. This might be the most triumphant moment of the Act so far!

fuck it friday
tagged by @bidisasterevankinard
so ummmm I wrote a whole fic. here it is on ao3
tagging: @bigfootsmom @monsterrae1 @elvensorceress @honestlydarkprincess @wildlife4life
@spaceprincessem @bucksbiawakening
It's spec but not really spec the idea just wouldn't leave me alone enjoy:
“Well that was dramatic,” Buck said to break the awkward silence.
They had just got home from the hospital. It was a total false alarm, Eddie was fine, but whilst he was off getting every test under the sun done, his life blew up in the waiting room.
First his parents came, with Chris in tow. And everything was fine, Buck was chatting to them, everyone was just trying to remain calm. Until somehow the topic turned more sombre, and they were discussing what would happen if Eddie really was sick. And well, one thing led to another, and Eddie’s will was brought up, and Helena Diaz lost it.
Then Marisol rushed through the doors, asking them what happened.
Which was odd, because Eddie had been on a date when they all got the call that something had happened.
Then the ghost of Shannon Diaz walked in. The woman Eddie had been on a date with when he was rushed to the hospital.
All hell broke loose.
The group had marched to Eddie’s room, demanding explanations. Buck held on to Chris who was looking a little green himself. This was not his place. He could ask Eddie what the fuck he was thinking and why he didn’t talk to him later.
And this was that later.
Eddie gave a half laugh and sunk into the chair at his dining table. “That’s one word for it.” He rested his chin in his palm, but Buck could see he was shaking.
“What’s going on, Eddie?” Buck asked softly. “Talk to me, please.” He held up his hands, palms facing Eddie. “No judgement, I promise. I’m not exactly in the position to, anyway.”
Eddie shook his head. “You got drunk and kissed someone else once. I lied… to everyone I know, for weeks.”
“O-OK, but why?”
He took a deep breath, gaze pointed to the left of Buck’s head. He hadn’t looked him in the eyes since the hospital.
“I guess… I wanted to live in the delusion a little longer. That somehow I’d found Shannon again, that I had that magic back, instead-” He abruptly cut himself off.
And Buck guessed he could understand. Because cheating on his girlfriend aside, everyone would have told him what a bad idea dating Kim was. Because she wasn’t Shannon. She looked a creepy amount like her, but she acted nothing like her. And it wasn’t fair to her to just be a replacement. 
Buck wondered if that was what Eddie had been doing with every relationship since Shannon died.
“Eddie, what you had with Shannon… you’re never going to have that again.” Eddie began to protest, and Buck cut him off. “But that’s OK. It’s supposed to be different. There’s no one right way for a relationship to be. That doesn’t take away from what you had with her.”
The chair screeched against the floor, and Eddie jumped up. “It has to be! My kid needs a mom and I need a wife and-”
“OK, we both know that’s B.S.” Buck stood up, and held out his hands to Eddie’s shaking ones. Just in case he needed steadying. “That’s what has been drilled into your head as a kid-”
Eddie huffed and began walking to the living room. Buck followed.
“about what families are supposed to be, but you and I know that isn’t true!”
Eddie stopped and spun around, panic flashing in his eyes. “What other choice do I have? Because there’s what I want and what I can have. I can want Shannon, but I can’t have her. I can have someone safe and easy like Marisol, even if that’s not what I really want. Because believe me, there’s a lot I want but can't have!”
“Like Shannon? Eddie, if… if you think Shannon was it for you… then stop torturing yourself. Stop forcing things you think you need to have. And who knows? Maybe one day you will find someone you want again. But it’s not fair to the people you date or yourself to keep forcing a relationship.”
“This isn’t about Shannon!”
Buck blinked. Eddie’s chest heaved. Chris snored from down the hall.
“W- what?”
“I mean… a part of it is. A part of it always will be. But there are other…” Eddie waved his hands as he searched for the words, “things that I’ve realised I want, that I can’t have. So sue me for trying to recreate the one good relationship I was actually allowed to have.”
Buck swallowed and nodded, trying to follow along.
“Right, so there’s something else you want. Why not go for it? What’s stopping you?”
“I told you, I can’t.”
“Eddie, you deserve to be happy.” He said it softly, gently, like approaching a wounded animal, because he knew that Eddie didn’t quite believe it. “You deserve to be a little selfish, for once.”
Eddie rolled his eyes. “Yeah, well, I just did the selfish thing, and I think it ruined everything in my life.”
“You screwed up. Big time. But you haven’t ruined everything. Your parents will get over the will thing. Chris will forgive you. And you’ve still got all of us. The 118.” Buck smiled at him. “You’ve still got me.”
“Do I?” Eddie snapped, finally meeting his eyes.
And Buck… Buck felt like he’d been pushed back by the force of his words.“Of- of course you have me! I’ve got your back, remember? You’ve been the one pushing me away these last few weeks. Which is what you do when you’re hiding something. Now I know and we can get back to normal.”
Eddie stepped towards him, until they were close enough that Buck had to tilt his chin down ever so slightly to fully meet his eyes. His eyes that were now storming with something Buck couldn’t recognise. “What if I don’t want to get back to normal?”
“What do you m-”
One hand on his neck. One hand in his shirt. Lips. Lips against his. Kissing. Eddie was kissing him. Why was Eddie kissing him? They don’t do this. Eddie wasn’t into men. But then again, Buck didn’t think he was into men until Tommy.
Tommy.
Buck pulled away and stepped back. “What the hell?”
“You asked what I wanted.” Eddie gestured between them. “There’s your answer.”
“Me?”
“You.”
Buck’s brain felt like static. He couldn’t even begin to process the amount of feelings and thoughts and questions bouncing around his brain. He tried to grab them as they flew past, and after a solid 30 seconds of spluttering, he managed to ask, “Since- since when?”
Eddie shrugged, lighter than before. “Not sure, really. I didn’t figure it out until I was bleeding out on that street, reaching for you. I fell. My eyes were so heavy. I knew I wouldn’t be able to stay awake. So I looked for you, and I reached for you and I realised I was in love with you.”
“You’re-”
“Yeah.” Now Eddie’s started looking at him, he can’t seem to stop. Buck felt like he was suffocating under his stare. “I couldn’t have ever dreamt you up in my wildest dreams. You’re… everything I never allowed myself to want. And the life we’ve built? Our friendship? It means so much. I couldn’t ruin what we already had. So yeah, I dated Ana and Marisol and Kim because I can’t get over you or Shannon.” Eddie made an amused noise and briefly looked away from him. “Maybe if I could get over at least one of you I could be happy with someone else.”
The silence returned. Eddie was clearly waiting for Buck’s next reaction, but he still couldn’t think properly. He tried to process the last few minutes: Eddie kissed him; Eddie was in love with him; Eddie has known this since he got shot.
“Three years ago, Eddie. Why are you telling me now? I’m with Tommy! I’m happy with Tommy!”
There had been time. Maybe not right away, when he was still with Ana, and then Buck was with Taylor. But they were both single for months. Hell, Buck died and Eddie still didn’t think it was important enough to tell him. This is the time? Not when Buck was scrambling to find the secret to happiness? When he died? When he asked Eddie about being shot? Literally any of the countless days they had spent together?
“Because! Because I’ve already blown up everything else in my life! What do I have left to lose? Besides, would it have even made a difference?”
“I don’t know! I don’t know and I can’t know because I’m with Tommy.”
Because Buck could think all he liked about the opportunities Eddie had had before now, but he couldn’t begin to wonder what would have happened if he had taken them. Because then he wouldn’t have Tommy.
Tommy, who was so hot and cool and confident.
Tommy, who made Buck feel giddy and excited.
Tommy, who made him laugh and moan and scream.
Tommy, who changed his life.
(But didn’t Eddie do that too?)
“Look I can’t…” Buck ran a hand across his face. “I have to go. I can’t do this right now, and Tommy has been asking for an update about you, because he’s worried about you, because he’s your friend and-” Buck cut himself off, knowing he was probably driving the knife a little deep. Eddie knew how badly he’d fucked up. He knew it when he’d kissed him. Buck wondered if he even cared anymore.
“I’ll text you later, I just… I gotta go.”
He turned away before he could see Eddie’s reaction and walked out the door.
It was the last time he went through that door for a while.

Round 8, Day 1 - ALL TEAMS (but mostly Team Pretender) - [ TRUE NAME DISSOLUTION ]
Team Pretender chooses to trigger the Pretender's True Name Dissolution! Oberon's gameplay style, personality, skills, and perhaps even the current state of the Grail War will cha--
Tumblr media
"Ahh… you're sure? This would be a pretty nasty spoiler… I mean, might spoil things in a pretty nasty way."
Tumblr media
"Well, if you say so. Let's put up a curtain, just in case anyone wants to remain in this illusion of bliss."
Ah. So you decided to keep reading? Good. I hope you're ready. Because in exchange for visuals, you'll have to live with words.
You watched as the form of 'Oberon' began to decay, his form withering and rotting away into dark, pulpy matter. The process was vile and agonizing, the smell of sloughing sinew and blackening bones filling the forest. The bugs crawled to the disgusting carcass, worming their way in, making nests and feasting greedily as the fairy king dropped to the earth, his body no more than a dark puddle that slowly grew in size, before rising.
Rising, and rising.
A swarm of darkness, rising and rising.
A vile king, an abyssal worm, rising above the digital space.
An empty entity that loathed existence itself. An eternal pit that swallowed worlds.
And as naught but innocent bystanders, the Masters could only watch in horror, for how could they have known this would happen?!
Hah!
Yeah, right. That's horseshit.
Of course they knew what would happen. They just didn't care. Not about the others, or how things would change. That's human nature, you know? Ruin things because it seems interesting at the moment. That's the simple fact of the matter.
They probably looked on proudly. 'We did it!', they would declare, 'We summoned such a mighty and powerful Servant, and none will stand in our way', they probably proclaimed. Or, perhaps even more naively (and perhaps even worse), 'Our friend now has the power to win'! Blegh. Anyways.
Then, as the audience is given a beat to grapple in the horror of the scenario, in a manner of surprising comedic timing they would check their Command Spells… and they would be gone.
'Gone? How could they be gone?', would be the question buzzing in their minds, panic beginning to settle in. Of course, the answer was simple.
That giant abyssal creature did not exist, and yet did exist. A 'hole', only truly meant for a Lost World.
Anyways, do you want a big explanation on how each Servant suffers and dies under the curse, and how the Grail crumbles and withers into itself, reverting to nothing, and how the magical energy suffused by this dark entity breaks free from this digital prison, dooming this world? I mean, I could. Sure.
But why bother? It's basically settled. Here.
What was that thing that Shakespeare had Puck say at the end of that bullshit play?
"If we shadows have offended, Think but this, and all is mended, That you have but slumber’d here While these visions did appear. And this weak and idle theme, No more yielding but a dream."
It's over. You can leave now.
The dream is done.
The Abyssal Wyrm comes and everyone dies. Meaning you've reached a...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I said you can go.
Tumblr media
Leave, shoo. Go away.
Tumblr media
There's not much past this, so bye.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
…Hah! Fine. I lied. I mean, obviously. What a shit ending that would be otherwise. Let's keep it 'sporting', then. This whole farce makes me want to puke, so I need to let out my anger on someone before this ends. Ah- wait, this is narration. No more 'I'. Let's stay detached, lest this become a monologue.
Now, let's settle the matter of where this story stands.
There was the melting, the decay, the ruination of the idea of 'Oberon'. Check.
The insects feasting, nesting, and crowding on his decaying body, a ritual to send his body to the earth, and arise anew. Duh.
The vanishing Command Spells, as you realized that your connection was nothing more than a scam. Of course.
The giant abyssal creature looming over the horizon. Obviously.
That stuff happened. Remember it.
But the Servants didn't die (yet).
The digital space wasn't swallowed by darkness (yet).
All isn't lost (yet).
Those were lies. Though, if I'm the one saying it…
Ah, whatever. Now... how did these sort of things go for the others? Right, right.
Behold, the vile king of the abyss. He who resides wherever 'emptiness' lies. The wrath of the Planet, given form and cursed with eternal loathing and hollow truth. He who only should have existed within the confines of the Lost World, as he has no role within human history. He, made of lies, sheds his farcical shell. He who makes you go 'Oh, we, uh, should have summoned the Archetype of the Planet for this one' with dumb mouths agape!
Behold, the end of worlds and dreams. The one who fells the morning lark. The one who consumes the evening shroud. The one who devours the twilight.
Behold--

Flight Patterns pt 5
Tumblr media
Summary - After years of hushed whispers and leads, Azriel has finally found Cassian's lost sister, Aerilyn. What he found with her was unexpected, though.
Warnings - injury, mention of Azriel's job, Amarantha, story takes place pre-UTM, loose editing (aka my friend who does my edits is currently arc reading for someone so I am not bugging her until she is done. Liz will catch uncaught errors as she looks with fresh eyes later)
A/N - Did I change how I wanted something to go in this story? Yes. Was it so I could include a starfall scene where *other things* may happen? Also, yes.
P.s. Pieces of You will be out later tonight still. I apologize for the delay. My tiny human was super snuggly last night and today, so her and her many rolls won.
✨️ Series Masterlist ✨️ Rhysand Masterlist ✨️ Master Masterlist ✨️
Tumblr media
Aerilyn felt like she was floating. She wasn't sure what she had been given, or if something had coated the arrows that struck her, but she felt as though she wasn't in her own body, let alone this plane of existence.
She could hear him, though. Hear him whispering to her. It was like he was calling her home, calling her back to him. His voice felt like a tether, pulling her from a pit. “Come back to me,” Aerilyn felt that tug at her heart, felt him in her mind. “Come home to me.”
Mor watched as her fingers twitched, sending the image to Rhysand. “Keep fighting, Ari,” she took Aerilyn's hand in hers. “Come home to us.”
-
Rhysand watched the red-haired general as she studied the male he currently had on his knees. “I do not recognize him.” Lie, Azriel's voice rang through his head, echoing in anger and promising death. She lies.
“Odd,” the High Lord said slowly, “He sang your praises when I asked what he was doing in my court, and all the way up in the Moutains.” The attack leading to Aerilyn's injury had been enough for the High Lord to have Amarantha stopped and held in Hewn City.
He refused to risk her getting beyond that point and restricted her access any further into Night. It had been met by a pout from the general, claiming she was being held despite her being there to bring a message of peace.
Now, her face was a mask of calm and seduction, one Rhysand saw straight through as her shields temporarily dropped in anger of her spies' treason. “I can assure you I do not know who this is or why he had bloodbane weapons with symbols of Hybern.”
Rhys didn't allow his face to shift from the look of indifference he had. She had unknowingly given him knowledge in her slip up, and he sent it immediately to Madja. He, however, didn't give her a single drop of knowledge as Azriel in his shadows swept the spy from the room, dragging the poor male to whatever holding cell Cassian was waiting in.
Cassian had been feral when they came back to Rhys and Amren holding Aerilyn down as she shook, blood pouring from her mouth and nose. Cassian wanted blood in turn for what happened to his sister, and this male would be the last to deliver. “As much as I doubt that to be true, it would be wrong of me to turn you away if your intended purpose is peace negotiating,” Rhys paused as 5 guards appeared. “They will escort you to your chambers for your stay. Until I know for sure there is not someone with alternative motives in your travel party, they will stay where they are.”
Amarantha seemed to smirk with something Rhys figured was glee as she studied his body and face, “Who knew such a pretty thing could be so cruel.”
“You have no idea how cruel I can be.”
Mor had brought Aerilyn to Rhysand's room at the Moonstone Palace. The illyrian female had tucked herself into his bed instantly, curled up and asleep under the power of one of Madja’s tonics to aid with pain. She hardly felt Cassian beside her, plaiting her long dark hair into braids to protect it as she slept. Not that they knew what was in her system, everything clicked into place, allowing Madja to properly treat her.
The inner circle was gathered in the room, discussing the best course of action. Aerilyn would be upset the conversation happened without her again, but it was a risk Rhysand was willing to take to protect her. “I do not want to risk her knowing about my family, especially Aerilyn and the dragons,” Rhys looked towards the window, sighing as he did. “But Keir will quickly reveal the existence of all of you, minus her.”
Rhysand's eyes were locked in his mate's sleeping form, the soft rise and fall of her chest as she took clean deep breaths for the first time in 3 days. He'd sooner sent Aerilyn and her dragons away. Risking Hybern getting to her somehow was too dangerous. Mor sipped her wine, clearing her throat to pull Rhys from his thoughts. “She already knows about me. She knows we are family and I helped the Night Court armies. I can safely go with you.”
Rhys nodded. “Azriel can hide in the shadows.” Az nodded, still wiping blood from his hands as he did. “Did he say anything else?”
The spymaster shrugged. “He cried for his mother,” Azriel felt his lip twitch up slightly, “Nothing has broken him yet, but we know how Hybern tortures their spies to prevent that.”
Rhys nodded, his eyes meeting Cassian's. It was an unspoken command, one that led to Amren and Cassian glancing at each other. The ancient being moved to the other side of Aerilyn. “We will protect our future lady.” Cassian watched Aerilyn's soft smile appear, then the ghost of a whisper of Rhysand's name. “You should spend some time with her, Rhys.”
Rhys shook his head. “I will not risk her scent on me before dinner.”
Cassian held Aerilyn while Rhys entertained the Hybern general. He had no interest in politics or the games right now. His only concern was his sister. He had her tight against him, telling her her favorite bedtime story of a princess who couldn't sleep due to a pea under her mattress. He could remember her laughter, the squeals of delight, as he and their mother would reenact the story to her. It all seemed so distant now. Like memories of a past life.
A defenseless boy stripped from his mother. A girl, barely more than a babe, ripped from her home and left for dead. Had he left a single person in that village alive, it would have felt like poetic justice to him. He would be their commander and general, and his sister Lady Night.
He knew that day would come, the day his sister would have command over him. He was watching her and Rhysand, watching that instant chemistry and attraction blossom. Rhysand loved her at first sight, Cassian and Azriel both knew that based on his anger.
Hybern had been sniffing around for awhile, and Aerilyn appearing when she did complicated things for Rhysand. He now had more than just his court, more than his family, he had a mate. A powerful mate with weapons they would not even be able to use without risking war with the other courts. A mate capable of carrying an illyrian babe. Aerilyn's eyes were no longer hardened when she looked at Rhys. Instead they had softened and were filled with wonder and affection. He had also noticed they were touching each other more. Cuddling in Rhysand's office from time to time.
It was odd how his intuition as a brother should have been to fight Rhysand, to threaten him, but instead, Cassian found himself praying that Aerilyn accepted the bond soon. If she accepted the bond, Cassian would never lose her again. And who better to be her mate than the one male capable of misting armies away to protect her.
Rhysand entered the room late into the Night, sending Cassian and Amren away as he did. He was exhausted and wanted nothing more than to get out of his fine clothing and hold Aerilyn.
He winnowed them back to the cabin, knowing she preferred the Forest to the stonewalls. He prayed the mountain air would help her heal. He began his mission again, wiggling into her dreams and whispering to her, calling to her. He had hoped the command of her high lord would pull her soul back from wherever she was.
The whispering began again in Aerilyn's mind. That pulling being came insistent, ripping her from the darkness she was in into a starlight bathed flower field. Rhys was there, waiting for her as she walked to him, settling next to him among the wildflowers. “Where are we?”
Rhys shrugged, finally looking at her. “I was hoping you could tell me. You created this place after all. It's in your mind.”
Aerilyn looked around, admiring the overgrown grass, the tall florals in bright reds, blues, purples, and whites. She deemed it her safe place. Somewhere she must go in her dreams to relax. She watched the stars racing across the sky, glittering in greens, teals, and soft pinks.
“I did not realize you had witnessed Starfall before,” Rhysand laid back, pulling her with him. “It is my favorite holiday.”
Aerilyn placed a hand on his chest, huddling into his warmth. “I have only read about it.”
“If you wake up, you will see if soon,” he tilted her head towards his, “you have to wake up, though.”
Aerilyn shot awake, hand on her chest as another rough tug rattled her body and mind. Rhysand sat shirtless in front of her, whispering a soft thank you to the Mother. Her hand was instantly on Rhysand's cheek, hazel eyes meeting his as he came closer and put his forehead to hers. “Good morning, Darling.”
What happened next was the last thing he expected, the last thought in his mind. He hardly even had time to react. Aerilyn's hand moved to the back of his neck, pulling him down to her before crashing their lips together in a heated kiss.
Home, she whispered into his mind. You are home.

|| THEORY TIMEEE ||
|| DAMN- ||
Tumblr media
|| Imagine Afo having almost the same goal as Endeavor at some point: Combining Quirks. ||
Tumblr media
|| What if Afo wanted to have a quirk that didn't have the same weakness as his, he wanted to have an All For One that could steal quirks from distance, and what better way to do it than having an heir? ||
|| But to have an heir, he needed a woman with a quirk that could attract things to her, and that's where Inko comes in ||
|| Her quirk was just what Afo needed, and on top of that, she was manipulable, she was perfect for the plan, but then a problem came in to ruin everything: Hisashi Midoriya ||
|| Most likely by that time they would be married and happy, and just that, was a problem for Afo but when he realized that Hisashi worked in Koga Construction, something came to his mind. ||
|| Afo began to monitor Hisashi and learn his behaviors with people and especially with Inko, and one day, Afo summoned Hisashi to "build" something for him, and when Hisashi arrived... Afo killed him. ||
|| After getting rid of the body, Afo using the Quirk to change appearance, he changed his appearance and took on Hisashi's. (Evidence that Afo does have a Quirk like that in the photo ↓) ||
Tumblr media
|| "Hisashi" returned home with his wife, and after a month or more time, he convinces her to have a child ||
|| And well, then Izuku was born ||
Tumblr media
|| It is more than obvious that the plan worked, since in the manga Izuku currently shows TOO many signs of having a quirk ||
Tumblr media
|| So the question with this theory is... What happened? Why didn't Afo steal Izuku's quirk? ||
|| And don't tell me that "Maybe his quirk was like Yoichi's and they couldn't tell it was really there" BECAUSE THEY KNEW. ||
Tumblr media
|| In this publication we are taught some human biology, and, in short, The Doctor Gairaki, lie, THIS BALD SON OF A BITCH LIED TO INKO AND IZUKU IN THEIR FUCKING FACE. ||
Tumblr media
|| But why? Why Afo ordered the Doctor to lie?? Why not steal the quirk and say that Izuku was quirkless??? ||
|| For this I bring two possible reasons: ||
1) Izuku's quirk CANNOT be stolen by Afo so he just compressed it and waited for Izuku to decide on his own to be a villain so he could tell him the truth later, and then make him his true successor and the Prince of Demons.
2) Afo ended up becoming fond of Izuku because his appearance and behavior is similar to that of Yoichi, but as we already know...
Tumblr media
someone died for using their quirk for the first time.. Soooo Izuku using his quirk didn't seem like a very good idea to Afo.
|| Either option can be possible, it could even be both! (I say this because Afo HAD MANY OPPORTUNITIES TO KILL IZUKU OR INKO AND NEVER DID ANYTHING TO THEM WHEN THAT PLUM BITCH KILLED NANA'S HUSBAND AND THE WHOLE FAMILY AND FRIENDS OF KUDOU-) ||
|| But well now we just have to wait to see how the Dad For One Theory will become canon ||
|| And remember! ||
Tumblr media
|| Have hope that the theory will become reality! If Horikoshi already did something like this with Tomura/Tenko and with Dabi/Touya then the theory is not so crazy that it cannot be canonized! ||
|| Horikoshi never disappoints the fandom!! ||
✧ Credits to @gothicayomi and @zelyres for they incredible theories!✧

Eddie Diaz loves his son Christopher Diaz and he's not just going to up and leave him.
There's lots of speculation going on and it's cool and all but some of it appears to be omitting the fact that Eddie loves his son dearly and he will sacrifice anything and everything for him. In fact, he already has several times. He relocated them from El Paso to Los Angeles so he could give them a better life after he became an LAFD firefighter. His mother tried to coerce (demand) him into leaving Chris with them but he didn't because he didn't want him growing up the way he did with her controlling behaviors. Also, he quit his job because Chris was afraid Eddie might die before the next year's holiday season.
So for those who may be confused about the Shannon of it all, IIRC, the reason TM killed her character off the show was because she was irredeemable. The audience didn't like her since she abandoned Chris for almost 2 years. Therefore, it wouldn't make narrative sense for Eddie to just up and leave his son, whom he loves and would die for, so Buck can take care of him while he dips to go off somewhere without telling anyone about it.
Please understand, Eddie’s will only comes into effect if he dies, is incapacitated or God forbid he's missing in action/presumed dead. If he were to just up and leave, it's likely he would be irredeemable too which would be the same storyline they gave Shannon in season 2.
Be clear, 7x7 was outlandishly interesting (for lack of a better way to describe it) and Eddie will have to deal with the repercussions when those chickens come home to roost but it doesn't appear the showrunner would set it up so Chris' only living biological parent, EDDIE, would leave him with Helena and Ramon (hello, he left TX to get away from them) and the only way Buck would be doing it again is if something happened to Eddie, like it did after the shooting or Eddie’s breakdown. He was staying at Eddie’s with Chris or with Eddie and Chris.
It's not plausible for it to be written where Eddie just drops Chris off with Buck and he dip/leave town. I don't work for the show but if they did, then it would be a contradiction to the narrative they've already established for the last six years.
Buck’s Chris' legal guardian and Eddie didn’t name him to do it with a +1 so T*mmy WILL NOT BE RAISING HIM WITH BUCK (linked here). T*mmy is a PLOT DEVICE. Therefore people should stop trying to figure out how Buck can raise Eddie’s son with T*mmy. That too would be contradictory.
There's a REASON Buck and Eddie haven't discussed the Will with anyone including their LIs (linked here) in the three years since Eddie revealed it. And it appears that may be about to happen later in the season when Ramon and Helena show up.

A Swift and Sudden Exit by Nico Vincenty
An immortal, doomed to die. A time traveler, desperate to save her.
An intriguing sci-fi with time traveling and immortals (and bisexuals, of course).
Zera, our protagonist is chosen as a candidate to send back into time so she could find the resources needed to reverse the effects of the storm that had scorched their earth.
When she is sent back to 2040, the year of the storm that ended it all, she hadn't known what to expect but what she absolutely did not ever even imagine was coming across a woman who claims to know her and looks at her with such love in her eyes, as if they had known each other for years. But before Zera could investigate anything, that woman is killed. She dies in Zera's arms.
When Zera is sent back further in time, she comes across that same woman again. No matter which time she goes back to, she sees her again. And what is even more interesting is the fact that this woman doesn't age at all. Zera wonders if this woman, Katherine, has something to do with the storms. And so she begins to investigate things together with Katherine.
As they go on their expeditions, they both grow close to each other, maybe even fall in love with each other. But how could Zera even imagine a life with someone like Katherine? Even besides all the complications, Zera knows what lies in Katherine's future. Could Zera change the future? Could she save Katherine? She has been reminded multiple times that the future can't be changed, but.. she could always try, right?

i lied and told them we were dating.
you crossed a line.
we don't pick and choose who we fall in love with.
Pronouns: He/Him/His, M!Reader
If Patrick has a million haters I'm one of them. If he has one hater it's me. If he has 0 haters I have died. If the world is against Patrick I am with the world, if the world is for Patrick I am against the world.
Tumblr media
"Is it just me or does it feel like Ari thinks she can kill me with her eyes?" (Y/N) quietly asked Ander, his attention focused on the chips bag being slowly pushed out of its line. The vending machine whirred softly and stopped once the chips thumped softly at the bottom. Ander snorted softly, placing his hand on his back and rubbing his palm up and down his spine as (Y/N) leaned down to grab the chips. He took a quick glance in the direction of the short girl and chuckled.
"What'd you do this time?" Ander asked, dropping his head and slipping in front of him to insert a dollar into the machine. (Y/N) scoffed, opening the bag and dipping his hand inside to tug free one of the salty chips. He bit down on one with a loud crunch and spared the brunette a glance, finding her narrowed eyes locked on him. 
"Nothing, I swear. I've been an angel since Carla left. I promised her I'd stay out of trouble."
"I don't believe for a second the (Y/N) Rosón Caleruega has been acting like an 'angel'. A hellspawn, maybe, but an angel? I'll believe it when I see it." Ander snickered softly when (Y/N) lightly punched the back of his shoulder, casting his friend a teasing grin before scooping up the chocolate bar he'd paid for. A chair lightly scraped and pulled their attention back onto the girl, a sharp whistle leaving Ander when she walked toward them. "Good luck with that," Ander whispered, patting his shoulder sympathetically and slipping away to find his boyfriend.
"(Y/N)." Ari greeted through gritted teeth, her arms folding over her stomach and her hip slightly jutting out to the side. 
"To what do I owe the pleasure, sweetheart?" (Y/N) tilted his head, sticking the bag out in her direction but she crinkled her nose and waved him off. Ari sighed and took a step closer to him, reaching out and fixing his uniform's tie with a sugary sweet smile. What had he done to piss her off? Had he shit-talked her father within earshot again? Ah, shit. He probably had.
"You're lucky I've been in a good mood recently, sweetheart, otherwise I might've told Patrick I saw you cozying up to the janitor the other night. I don't like people hurting my family, (Y/N). I won't stand for it. Get it together or next time I'll go straight to Pat and tell him." Ari adjusted his coat next, smoothing out the wrinkles before dropping her hands to her sides and arching a brow at him. "Got it?"
"What are you talking about, Ari? The janitor? Cayetana? She's my friend, and what I do with my friends is none of your brother's business." 
"None of his business?" She repeated, her brows lifting high. "Of course, it's his business what his boyfriend does! And if I were him, I'd never leave you alone in a room with that girl."
"Boyfr-" (Y/N) clamped his mouth shut, staring at the girl as if she'd grown two more heads. He couldn't help the laugh the bubbled up, partly amused but mostly shocked. Ari scoffed at his laughter and rolled her eyes, turning on her heel and strutting away with quiet muttering. He watched her sit back down in her seat and continue eating her lunch as her words finally settled in. That son of a bitch. His jaw clenched and he found his appetite for a snack gone, irritation rolling over him like a wave. 
Leaving the cafeteria and heading down the hallway, he made eye contact with a puzzle Guzman. The boy opened his mouth to speak but (Y/N) simply pressed the bag against his chest, barely checking to see if he had a hold on them before releasing his grip and turning the corner, heading right for the lockerroom and showers where he knew Patrick would be after gym class. He threw the door open, the sound of it causing many of the guys changing to flinch or curse in surprise. They only took one look at him before scurrying to get the rest of their clothes on, some still dripping with water as they quickly left the locker room. Patrick slowly rubbed a towel into his drenched hair, his eyes flickering between the door and his face. 
"What's wrong?"
"Why is your sister saying I'm your boyfriend?" He almost snapped at him, teeth grinding together when Patrick's eyes widened with realization. He cursed softly under his breath, eyes squeezing shut and a heavy sigh escaping him. "You crossed a line. I told you we were just hooking up, nothing more, nothing less."
"Let me explain, (Y/N). Last Friday, Benjamín saw when I kissed you in the parking lot and he- he asked about it, about us, and Ari overheard so then she started asking and- and I panicked, okay? I lied and told them we were dating." Patrick explained, voice stammering as he crossed the distance. He raised his hands toward (Y/N)'s face but the teen tilted his head away, leaving Patrick to drop his arms in defeat. "It's fine, (Y/N). We're both single, aren't we? What's the harm in a little lie?"
"A little lie would be saying that it was just a dare or a challenge. A little lie would be saying that he must've seen wrong, that he was mistaken." (Y/N) crossed his arms and leaned against the locker behind him, his narrowed eyes digging into Patrick. "You can't lie about being in a relationship with someone, Patrick. People ask questions, they notice shit. Ari thought I was 'cheating' on you or planning to with Cayetana."
"What- What would make her think that?" Patrick's brows furrowed, taking a step back to rummage through his locker and begin getting dressed. 
"It doesn't matter what she thinks she saw, what matters is why she felt like she needed to confront me about it. She's your sister, I get it. Carla would've done the same if she thought I was getting cheated on. Hell, she might've done worse. And that's exactly why I don't need your sisters or your asshole dad getting into my business. We're not together. Tell them or I will." 
Patrick's lips pursed and he inhaled heavily through his nose, tugging up his briefs and slipping on the button-up before he turned to face him. "Why does it bother you so much? We could be together, don't you think? We have the same friends, we go to the same clubs, our parents would get along. We'd be perfect. Besides... no offense but a girl like Cayetana would only hurt your family's reputation, no?" 
The audacity of the Blancos was astonishing, admirable even. (Y/N) snorted, and then laughed, lifting a hand to his face to rub his forehead as more laughter shook his shoulders. "Oh, Patrick.." He sighed and dropped his hand, lips curled upward. "Don't tell me you caught feelings." 
"So what if I did? We don't pick and choose who we fall in love with." 
"Love? You think you're in love with me? Look, I get it. My family comes from money, we own a fancy winery, and everyone likes to call me Marquess. Your daddy probably gave his approval 'cause he thinks he'll be set for life if we're together. Obviously we're compatible when it comes to sex so you think that means we're perfect for each other." (Y/N) dropped his arms and took slow steps forward until he stood in front of Patrick, his hands lifting to grab Patrick's jaw and hold it. "And maybe it would make sense for us to be together. But I'd have to love you for it to work, and I don't even like you. You're whiny, spoiled, demanding and you can't take no for an answer. You're like a damn leech who won't quit. The only reason I even paid attention to you was because you wouldn't leave Ander alone, even after he told you he wanted nothing to do with you." 
Patrick's jaw clenched under his fingertips, his bright blue eyes igniting. "I don't believe you. I don't believe you don't feel anything-"
"You're boring me with this love bullshit, Patrick. I don't like being bored. If you knew anything about me, you'd know you're not the type I go for. Marina, Valerio... they're nothing like you... they're more like your sister, Mencia, actually. If only she weren't so interested in Rebeka... it would've been fun playing with her instead." (Y/N) tightened his grip on his jaw, feeling Patrick tense. A flicker of jealousy appeared in his eyes. "She's persistent but at least she knows when to back off. All you know how to do is throw yourself at people until they're forced to give you what you want. It's pathetic, honestly, but at least it's funny to watch."
"(Y/N)," Guzman's familiar voice echoed through the empty locker room followed by a sharp whistle to fully get his attention. (Y/N) craned his head to look back at him, watching him nod toward the doors. "Come on, leave him. You made your point." 
Releasing Patrick, (Y/N) backed off and headed toward the dirty blonde, slinging one arm around his waist casually. Guzman sent him a disapproving look as he slipped his arm around his shoulder but (Y/N) tilted his head back to look at Patrick with a grin. "See you in class, Pat. Might want to take care of your little friend downstairs first, though." He laughed and let Guzman drag him out of the room.

When I finished 7x07 my immediate thought was "oh tumblrs not gonna like this" and I'm actually happy to find out that the people I follow are actually capable of seeing nuance in the show and eddies character, but I have unfortunately also seen takes like "they ruined his character, he wouldn't do that" and damn I just wanna watch this silly little show, why is being in fandom so infuriating sometimes
the "he wouldn't do that" argument is so silly tbh because like... of course he would and the people arguing he wouldn't? they would do it too.
Eddie doesn't see Kim, he sees Shannon and he's definitely in for a rude awakening when he realises that Kim doesn't like the same foods, same TV shows or same pastime activities as Shannon used to and she doesn't laugh at the same jokes Shannon thought were hilarious — or worse; maybe she is exactly like Shannon and he'll have to realise that it feels empty regardless.
he's chasing the memory of a woman who encompassed everything his developing brain considered love; she was his first serious relationship (more serious than most of ours, I'm sure) and he never got to have closure. she asked for a divorce to have room to better herself and she died with Eddie being angry about feeling abandoned.
anything slightly resembling her and what she represents in Eddie's brain is worth the lies and more. he wants to make it up to Shannon as much as he wants to feel exactly the way he did when they thought Shannon was pregnant again — and he would do anything to get that, it doesn't matter who he'd hurt because grief is always larger than your body or your capacity to make sound decisions.
so yes, he would absolutely do that. is it a stupid thing to do? is it going to undoubtedly end in disaster? is it going to hurt him and the people he loves? yes, absolutely. but to get even the faint resemblance of a second chance, believe me, he would do it.

Hello! May I be ⚡ an)on? If that's ok? Anyways! Wondering if I could request a tyler x reader where they thought reader couldn't go to the phantom world but one day while they are there, they are running from a group of Phantoms before a flash bang goes off and reveals reader, holding a machete, and a huge light that was keeping the Phantoms away? You may edit it as you wish! Just keep the basic plot pls! -⚡anon
I was thinking about they flash the light at reader, I don't understand the basic plot but i goggle it (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)
I'm choosing if i should choose the
while 'you' were running
Or
While' i' was running
Tumblr media
Warnings: none ig?
Character: Tyler
G/N reader
Relationship
✨as always i don't know much English so if something is wrong correct me✨
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Let's start on how you went to Savannah
You didn't know why you went to Savannah you didn't even have friends but your parents insist you on going there to make friends
But instead of making friends you look like a lost cat
You wonder around the place then you saw a mansion you went close to it trying to peak but ran away when you heard a rattling sound
You panted as you ran when you look back you froze for a moment you scared of the sight, while you stare at it, it suddenly came running towards you, you shriek while holding your arm up in defense
You fell down when you felt it scratch you
That's when a woman came running towards you
"hey! Are you okay?!" A brown haired woman with yellow shirt came running towards you
You look up from her then your arm, you were shock 'i swear i felt it scratch' then you look around but nothing was there it was just you and your embarrassment
Screaming without anyone harming you is kind of embarrassing
You stand up but the woman help you
"yes I'm fine sorry, i just saw snake came but i guess it disappear?" You lied because you always saw in movies they don't believe ghost or monster ti'll they see it in their naked eye she nodded believing it
"hey? Do you have anyone with? Like a friend?.. sorry to say this but ever since you walk out of the bus you look like a loner" you were offended but she's telling the truth anyway
"well yeah I was just force to be here, no friends" you said smiling softly while scratching your nape
You were shock when a hand was Infront of you "well then i will be honored to be your first friend, im Taylor Hernandez, im on the mechanic club" she smiled brightly at you
"oh, well hi Taylor im (name) , and glad to be you're friend" you smiled back as you were about to shake hands a group came running
"hey Taylor everything ok?" "Yeah just them seeing a snake" Taylor and.. tyler the baseball player that you're inlove with
"(name)" you can't help staring at him his so beautiful "(name)?" His brown eyes "(name)!"
You jump all the sudden only for Taylor apologize "oh no need to apologize, sorry i zone out, what are you saying again?"
"oh just introducing them let's start again this is Logan fields the genius of our group friend" she said pointing at the blonde boy with glasses
"and that is Aiden the uh? Hmm the insane one of our group" he yelled a 'hey' making everyone giggle
"and that is Ben the tall one of our friend, Aiden and him are cousins" Ben waved at you and you wave back
"and that is Ashlyn the quite one sorry not sorry" she shrugged it off and just said hi raising her hand
"and last this is-" "oh yeah i remember him being in the baseball club right?" She nodded and telling you their twins
"so that's why you two look alike"
-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-
When on that night you were in a different room all by yourself when you heard a banging you woke up the sky is red you looked out of the window seeing there's already the black monster it bang its head on the window and you search the room you were shock when you saw a machete
'weird but okay?!'
You swing it in its head and they died
You ran into the bathroom wishing this wasn't real you remember you have your phone on the bed
You cursed why didn't you didn't think to get it first
You open the door looking if there is anyone you quickly snatch your phone and went back in the bathroom you tried calling someone but there are no service
'of course there isn't, am i now in the horror movie ' you thought as you look at the time 12:00 for you it was passed by minutes now yet the clock was still 12:00
This made you cry with fear you tried calling for someone out and you just noticed you have a bleeding arm, you remember that from earlier you look for a wrapping bandaid
Once you find on you wrap it
'i knew it i was scratch!'
That's when you felt your body being pulled
Tumblr media
You woke up gasping, you look out of the window and regretting it when a bright light came to your face you closed it immediately
They're are many thoughts on your mind but glad that it was a dream, while thinking that you felt something coming out of your throat
After all that vomiting you still felt sick
You kept vomiting then vomiting so you went home, you ask your teacher permission and he agree
-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-
Present time
By the time you made friends with the six but you came more close to Barron
He was sweet and caring and he asked if you could help him do his assignments and you agree only regretting it
"hey Barron i thought im gonna help you but instead you kept playing baseball" you said looking frustrated and scared at the same time
"oh sorry but can you do my assignment i never had baseball before cause my mom always wanted me to study" he looks at you smiling, you only nodded and went to do his assignment and he added his friends assignments too
But day after day he started to get violent kicking you, Punching your gut, beating you up
You didn't dare to confront him you were to scared of him
.
You were at the arcade like Barron said you were meeting up there
"hey (name)! It's nice to see you again after weeks, how come i don't see you around" you saw Taylor and his twin Tyler i mean
You were about to speak up but Barron already pulled you away making tyler glare at him
"heyy (name) who's you're friends" Barron glared back
Then you notice Logan looking worried at you and mouthing 'are you okay?'
"oh i.. i i just met them on the camping, its nice seeing you again you wave goodbye as Barron lay an arm around you
"they're not okay" Logan said looking at everyone then you
Ben might not know you but he was mad whenever he saw someone encounter with Barron
But when they got there you were no where to be seen
-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-
They were now in the phantom realm Logan was at the top of the wall looking out
Ashlyn suddenly said "hey Logan how many phantom are there they kept getting louder"
When Logan looked with his sniper he can see a group of phantom chasing someone
"there's someone there running!" "Someone? Quick put the light on the direction it might be another person!" Ashlyn said as they all climb up because of curiosity but Ashlyn went out to grab you
When Logan put the light he can see a person when all the phantom became a slime you look at the light seeing someone you were happy that you're not alone anymore
Then you felt a hand grab you and ran towards the wall
Once you got inside the wall you Taylor and ben and Logan, Ashlyn and....tyler
'stop with your thoughts (name) its not healthy
.
"how did you get here, how long have you been here, when did you get here"
"calm down Taylor don't ask them many questions" Tyler said as he look at you then looked away
"I got here ever since the field trip then I had a dream well... Now I know it's not a dream then woke up vomiting and this been happening for a few weeks now "
They also explain that's what happened to them
"okay okay now thats done what the hell does Barron have to do to you?" Tyler said changing the topic you let out a small 'oh' before being silent
Logan sigh and look at you "Barron also force me to do his homework and violently beat me up" when you heard that from him you started to open up to them
"just letting you know if Barron came to you again I'll beat the shit out of him" you started to feel the warmth of your cheeks when you heard what tyler said
Who would've thought you would fall for him even though he doesn't know you
-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-
"woah you use machete" Aiden said with a big grin on his face
"well yeah i found this on the room where we slept while having the field trip, weird they have this things"
Ben tapped you then showing you a board "hey (name) question how did you survive these weeks?! I mean you didn't have any light"
"oh! Well we have a Bunker and I hid there with these torche but when im running out of food i decided to run in a market nearby but none was there only finding those creatures and your light lead me here" you explain to them
"but did you know in the human realm you can put anything, anywhere and it will be on the phantom realm like those lights, before we don't have those but them we figured out we can transfer anything in the phantom realm by being in the human realm" you only nodded but still couldn't catch up to what his saying but you get what he was saying
"okay okay how about we get some rest for now, and here eat you said you ran out earlier you must've hungry" tyler said giving you a snack
"whoa this is not like you tyler, where's a grumpy old Tyler" Tyler glared at him like there was flaming fire around him
-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-
You all are quiet while you ate the snack you thank Tyler for it
This tiny things can make your heart jump you were inlove with him but now being this close you were every much now falling and falling inlove
-
The next day you we're getting pinned by the wall because you forgot to do his homework and so as your homework
"seriously are you really that dumb?! It was an easy task and you couldn't do it?!"
Barron kicked you gut and you fell on the ground
"if it was an easy task why can't you do it?" You heard a familiar voice you knew that voice, you love that voice
"If it isn't prince charming what your gonna save your helpless s/o" they all laugh as Barron did too you grunt in pain holding your stomach
Tyler saw you then quickly get blocked by Barron when Tyler was about to punch him a teacher appeared out of nowhere making them run
Tyler didn't care he was worried about your situation right now he asked if your okay, you nodded and look at him if you were and emoji you could've have been the emoji with heart eyes
"from now on your sticking with us, were gonna protect you from that maniac like we protected Logan from him" you smiled at him and lead you to the group
-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-✧-
It was months now you were officially their friends
You suddenly didn't regret going to the field trip thought you regret being in the phantom realm but you were also glad you have them
You've been hangout most of the time with the twin their mom loves your company aswell
-
"oh hey ty-ty" you said when he sat down next to you
"congrats its been months your now our officially friend" heh right friends...
You two sat there in a comfortable silent while in the background there was a chaos you laugh when Ben suddenly went flying on the spinning thingy
"hey.. i know we don't know each other much but.. nevermind"
"no go on im listening"
" we were classmate ever since grade 6 and we aren't close but ever since we became grade 8 i suddenly catch feelings for you... Even now" you were shock at his words he fell for you ever since grade 8 while you fell for him at first sight
When you were silent Tyler stand up "sorry I just ruined our friendship we just started and I already ruined it im-"
"no.. no Tyler im.. i accepted your confession though i already fall for you ever since grade 6" you grabbed his hand then he sat back again
"really?..." Another silent was made but then tyler held your hand " so does this mean we're you know... Together?" "Well i guess yes" you giggled at him
When his face started to get close you closed your eyes when your foreheads was at each other Aiden suddenly shout
"GET A ROOM"
"SHUT UP!!"

All I can imagine when it comes to teasing Milo is just like “have you read this new book? It’s TO DIE FOR! Have you heard any gossip? I’m DYING to know! Wow there’s no one in this bar, it’s really DEAD in here…… I died you know.” It would never get old to me. I’d leave it alone for awhile then BAM!!!! GET HIM!!!
I would try to spare the rest of the LIs from the same treatment as it would probably just make them sad.
Milo, not wanting to take MC's advice over something. Thinking he's right.
MC: "Hey, hey Milo. Remember when you thought you were doing the right thing? And it turns out that you were super confused and duped? Maybe you need to shut up and listen to me."
Milo with a sigh: "Yes, boss."

LMK S5 trailer, Chinese pantheon infodump, and some ideas
…Man, normally, I feel the urge to write fix-it AUs after rewatching episodes and coming across particularly bizarre theories and takes, not before the new season's even out.
Thanks, S5 trailer.
Consider this your spoiler warning, because the rest of this post will all be my personal opinions about a few major story beats that were revealed + the rough outline for a fix-it AU.
It's also a bit ranty, and features some criticisms of the general narrative, so if that's not your cup of tea, feel free to avoid this one.
Li Jing becoming JE/the regent of the Celestial Realm is just hilariously absurd. I mean, it makes a teeny tiny bit more sense than the "Nezha will be the new JE" fan theory, but that's not a very high bar.
1) In-universe, he had done a grand total of nothing while shit was hitting the fan, and only showed up after it was all over. Which, tbh, isn't too far from his role in FSYY. No, wait, at least in FSYY, he killed Luo Xuan via a pagoda to the head, after the guy had all his fire-based magical treasures neutralized and taken away by Princess Longji.
Yeah, congrats, LMK's Li Jing, you've somehow become even more useless than your FSYY and JTTW counterparts——which is a true feat.
2) Even if someone's making him JE/regent, it wouldn't be the Ten Kings. To put it simply: the Underworld doesn't have that authority. They are the most pathetic of all divine bureaucracies, who pretty much only show up to get pushed around and revive the occasional dead guy in JTTW (and I still love them).
Like, they ain't no Hades or Satan. Just the 10 judges of the Dead People Supreme Court. To heavily paraphrase Di Ting in the original JTTW novel:
"How much power do Underworld gods really have? (幽冥之神,能有多少法力)" "...Certainly not enough to stop a rampaging demonic macaque who's as strong as SWK, if I say the truth out loud in here and piss him off. Just send them to the Buddha, please."
An analogy: if the Celestial Host is the imperial court, the Underworld is the ministry in charge of judicial processes and prisons. They don't even have authority over the imperial censors who answer directly to the emperor, let alone the power to determine a successor to the throne during a major crisis.
If this was to make the tiniest bit of sense, Li Jing would be the one commanding THEM, not the other way around. Or if it's Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha himself giving orders to Li Jing…for some reason.
But we know that ain't happening bc of the show's strange aversion to showing Buddhist deities on screen, not to mention it would be very OOC for Ksitigarbha, whose job is granting relief and salvation to souls in the Path of Hell, not judging and punishing them like the Ten Kings.
3) If you must make Li Jing the emperor/regent, you have a more mythos-accurate and obvious choice than the Ten Kings, considering you already got the Four Divine Beasts involved!
Yes, I'm talking about their bosses, the humanoid "directional + elemental gods": Lord Father of the East (Wood), Queen Mother of the West (Metal), Emperor Zhenwu of the North (Water).
No South though...because our mythos can't agree on a single directional god of the South, but for shit and giggles, just imagine Zhurong, Yandi, Huaguang, and the Star of Fiery Virtues all sitting on the same narrow bench, staring awkwardly at each other.
Maybe we can have Ziwei, Great Emperor of the Central Sky and North Stars, who is one of the Four Sovereigns(四御) in Daoism (two of which could also be an alternate choice, but maybe a bit too obscure for foreign audiences).
He commands the stellar deities and heavenly bodies——which the Four Divine Beasts would technically fall under, as guardians of the four quadrants of the sky, each in charge of 7 Lunar Mansions.
4) But if you already have these deities, why the hell would any of them make Li Jing the regent? Wouldn't it be more likely for them to create a Celestial Council of Regents themselves, with Devaraja Li Jing under their command as the leader of what's left of the celestial army?
Like, you can still have them, or one of them, going after the gang and ordering Li Jing to put the fillet on SWK.
I can see Zhenwu the Demon-Vanquisher doing that, since the fillet isn't too different from what he did to Huaguang and a lot of the demons he subdued in JTTN: feeding them magical water/fire pills that would corrode/ignite their insides whenever they tried to resist.
(Yeah, compared to that, the fillet would look like the lenient option, since it's just pain and won't actually dissolve/cook you alive from the inside out...)
And it wouldn't be bc he thought SWK was to blame for the Brotherhood's epic fuck-up...somehow. Like, what even is that logic?!
I mean, I can kinda see the Ten Kings doing it as a pre-emptive "Don't blame us for our shitty security, blame that guy over there!" move...except they are no longer answering to any higher authorities who'd hold them responsible at that point!
"What about Li Jing?" You may ask. Yeah, WHAT ABOUT LI JING? Why does Li Jing have to get involved in this?
If he's forcing the Ten Kings to pass judgement on the gang (which surely doesn't look like it in the trailers), why's he enlisting the help of the weakest faction and not, y'know, his celestial soldiers and other gods?
If the Ten Kings get Li Jing to be their enforcer...well, how the Eighteen Hells did they manage that? What could the Ghost Supreme Court and their crappy prison-torture chamber-soul customs office complex even offer Li Jing as a bribe?
And if their goals were to avoid responsibilities by blaming someone else, how stupid did they have to be to actively involve/create a higher authority who can punish them once the cat gets out of the proverbial bag, instead of, I dunno, just stay where they are and keep their head down???
So in my fix-it AU, it's more of a "Better safe than sorry" scenario, where every demon working for the new Celestial Council must prove their loyalty via swallowing the water/fire pill, now that even more dangerous demons have escaped and are running around in the aftermath of S4.
And Great Sage and company are not exempt from that new law either——"If you are truly righteous and Not Like Them and not planning to rebel, what's there to be afraid of?"
Horrified by the Demon-Vanquishing Mansion's 16th century standards of "justice" and "mercy", they naturally would not have any of it, and thus the conflict begins.
Not only would this show the fallout of Azure's misguided rebellion——that, in trying to make a better world, he had made it 120% worse for both humanity and demonkind in less drastic and more realistic ways aside from dooming reality to irreversible destruction, it would also help with the major show-not-tell problem about Celestial cruelty bc the "good guys" in power saw no problem with this kind of shit.
If you want your lawful antagonists who take Order to its extremes, the warrior sovereign in black leading an elite army of demon-hunters + penal legions made of "reformed" demons would be a better choice than the Ghost Supreme Court, don't ya think?
(Fun fact: in Zaju plays, Zhenwu was often said to be the boss of Nezha and Erlang, so him commanding Li Jing wouldn't be too out of place either.)
Now, you may ask, why do I even care? After all, isn't it clear that the show is neither mythos-accurate nor trying to be, considering the JE got K.O.ed by a Bodhisattva's cat of all things?
Not to mention the season's not even out yet, so why jump to conclusions so quickly? Maybe the actual episodes will have explanations that make sense. Relax.
...Cause I don't mind less-than-stellar animations if the story's good, and since I keep noticing the less-than-stellar animations, it clearly isn't good enough.
Also, it's not like it's only the implications that are absurd——my problem is with the whole premise of "Li Jing becoming the new JE/Regent" and "The gang is prosecuted by the Ten Kings for bullshit reasons, even though these guys should not, and never have the power to enforce anything over SWK."
I don't like calling narrative choices "wrong" per se, and prefer to see it on a gradient of "least to most narrative potential". When it comes to adaptations, if the option that is faithful to the original work will result in a less interesting story, then I'll happily take the one that isn't as faithful and takes creative liberties, but makes a better story.
And here, I feel like being faithful to the Chinese mythos inspirations will add to the narrative potential instead of subtract from it, and the idea they come up with kinda...goes against how Chinese pantheons work, in a very simplified and "westernized" manner.
Mostly bc I am a Chinese Underworld mythos lover and think they deserve better than being ominous Hades/Grim Reaper knockoffs. And out of all the possible Chinese gods, Nezha's asshole dad is the least qualified or interesting candidate to fill in the power vaccum left by JE's death.

You ever stop and think about how ex-Toman in Bonten don't know about what happened during the Three Deities. How Draken was the only one who got back into delinquency, not wanting to drag anyone else he holds dear along and only telling Mitsuya and Inui? Mitsuya because he wanted to get Mikey back to, but Draken really couldn't handle loosing anyone else and so made it so Mitsuya wouldn't and Inui because they're colleagues and likely roommates?
And he told Takemichi - who hadn't had a single idea, a single clue, because he and his past self were part of those who didn't know - that they didn't go after Mikey because he made them hate him. But that isn't why Draken gave up on Mikey. Mikey beat them all up before leaving and forming Kanto Manji. Bonten Draken didn't only lie about where Mikey was to Takemichi: he lied about why they left Mikey be a top criminal.
The difference between Bonten and the Kanto Manji of the final arc is whether it's Senju or Draken who dies.
In Bonten, Senju is the one to die - and it's hard to say if past!Takemichi was there - but Draken had to come eventually. And he had to watch. Mikey kill.
And not only was Draken unable to prevent Senju's death which must have been harsh (they weren't close at all, he was barely a Brahman member and he didn't know much if anything about Senju but witnessing a death, a murder, is still smth) because he was powerless and let yet another person die but he also had to witness Mikey remorselessly kill.
And he can't do it.
He can't lose anymore of his loved-ones. he's lost so many of them already. And he knows, he knows that if he continues then it's likely they will die. And he's so tired. And they're all finally starting to figure out how to live their adult civilian lives. And maybe Mikey can be saved, but Draken can't try anymore. not if it means losing more people.
He watches Mikey kill South, just like Bad Toman Draken watched Mikey kill Kazutora. He thinks, ah, Mikey's only a child, he's hurting. He thinks, ah, I see why you left. He thinks, ah, I can't do this anymore, I want to, but I can't.
And he returns home and he burns his Brahman uniform.
And maybe the others learn about what happened on the news if it ever gets covered, and they don't talk about it, because Mikey became a topic you shouldn't mention, but only Mitsuya and Inui know.
Only them know Draken was there.

Hello! Nika fan here! Uhm, curious, as you seem like a Nika expert, how do you explain her personality as a character? 😅 Sorry, sounds stupid, but I really wanted to understand her more! Detailed or in simplistic form, I don't mind one or the other.
Hope you have a good day! Love your art! ❤️ 💀 ❤️
Hi there! Thanks for the question and take an interest in her!!^ ^♥️ (I tried to keep it simple but I keep adding details about her, so it has become a lengthy description, but you can scroll to the bottom I have the simplistic version of it)
Detailed version↓
I would say Nika is a quick wit, bold, resilient, stylish, rebellious, and very much an independent person. Sometimes a bit of a showgirl in her own playful theatrical way.
→Painting her face with skull makeup. Her trademark move by tearing people's hearts out. Presenting herself in distinctive outfits. Kneeling as a sign of respect when she first meets with people whom she holds long admiration for - Batman, her (past) mentor Lord Death Man. When she goes undercover with Damian in Gotham High, she shows up dressing to her own taste in clothes, even though he tells her to be inconspicuous.
Tumblr media
"Sorry, I don't do inconspicuous."
Tumblr media
Batman and Robin(2023)#8 -Artist: Nikola Čižmešija-
She tends to make silly nicknames for people, like throwing it in between conversations as a not-serious jab/comment: Damian- little birdie, Bruce- Daddy bat-brucks (reference Annie), Ra's Al Ghul- old fart😭(cus he is in ghost/spirit form, and properly bugging her for a while…)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The interests she has are drawing and opera. She also mentioned she's a K-pop stan, so I imagine she is interested in different ranges of music.
"—wander around an old folk's home and like… pick up painting or opera, y'know?"
Tumblr media
Nika is an easygoing, open-minded and curious person (reads Damian's manga and talks to him about it). She's not very good at picking up social cues (saying death-related jokes at bad timing or it didn't land well) despite that, she still pays attention to what people are saying and observes people well (discuss the fighting skills of tournament fighters with Damian, and showing concern about Damian's injured arm).
"It's good. I like that it's a romance about an art school. But also about being competitive…"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And oftentimes she lives in her own head (obsesses with death and honing her newfound powers). It improves after she meets Damian and considers other possibilities in life other than death and killing.
"Life can be more than just being really good at killing people. You've proven that a few times."
Tumblr media
Batman and Robin(2023)#7 -Artist: Simone Di Meo-
She likes to handle things at her own pace/plans and has the confidence in herself to do it correctly. So she has the bad habit of saying white lies or doesn't tell people the whole picture/exactly what she is trying to do.
Sometimes doing things head-on fearlessly because she has ambition and pride in herself (calls dibs on Damian's first match, keeps fighting in the death tournament attempt to gain victory, takes over Lord Death Man's empire, takes inspiration from Talia and makes a new outfit for herself).
When first met, people might find Nika quite rude/careless. Once you get to know her, she's just very straightforward and honest when expressing her feelings. She can be pretty brash, had short-tempered to people who are disrespectful/annoying to her.
"If you really are this badass that you think you are, you'll respect me."
Tumblr media
Nika is a person of a free spirit with a strong will and motivation. She would follow reasonable orders/rules from ppl whom she respects, but she would get irritated when people tried to hold tight control over her and tell her what she should or shouldn't do, it might signal her that they don't trust/have faith in her (like her family). And if she feels like being overlooked/underwhelming, she tries to rebel and manage things on her own terms (run away from home to learn more about her powers, overthrow Lord Death Man, handle Mila's situation, go to Gotham to see Damian after his lack of contact/attention to her even though he calls her his girlfriend first).
Simplistic version (summary)↓
Prominent personality trait— Quick wit and easygoing, with a strong will and motivation. A confident, resilient, fashionable, and challenging person.
Hobby(so far)— Drawing, k-pop, opera.
Social ability— Tends to be playful, joking around with people, and likes to nickname them as a not-serious jab/comment. Mostly minding her own business, and not relying on other people much. Kind of a lone wolf who values her own time and effort.
Goals(so far)— Relying on her obsession with death to make sense of life. After the tournament and managing Lord Death Man's criminal empire she wants to slow down a bit to enjoy/explore her life.
With Damian— Playful, free talking and showing more emotions with him. Honest to him with times (resolved misunderstanding with him quickly). Likes his accompany a lot.
With (her older sister) Mila— a bit melancholy but not afraid to fight against her when she is being disrespectful/harmful.
And Ty for liking my art!!💝 I must say my portrayal of Nika still has some level of my preference/fanon in it (I love my art, but I'm not always satisfied with how I portray her within my ability). So take it with a grand of salt and give comics a try if you can! (For Nika, Robin2021, Lazarus planet: Next evolution, and Batman and Robin2023)
Have a great day anon, and thanks for reading!!🫶⚰️💀🦴♥️
