Crowley Having To Be A Dad For Once (Crowley Comforting Yuu)

I don’t know what this is, I was just really bored and it happened so if it sucks I’m sorry. I used they/them and she/her pronouns throughout the whole things, idk neither sounded right if I used just one set of pronouns so I just used both T_T.

Also yah ik Crowley is ooc bc he’s basically a deadbeat uncle but this is MY fic and I’m a SUCKER for parental Crowley and the idea of him not really being good at it at first but as he grows to care about Yuu more he becomes more willing to try and be a good parent for them.

No trigger warnings, ig this is fluff? Uh probably not very good but it’s ok I still hope u like it. Oh and this takes place at the end of Book 6, also reader is referred to as Yuu.

It was finally over. Everything was finally ok. Grim was back with Yuu, all of the people who had been brought to Styx were back in their dorms, a little banged up, but safe. Yuu was finally home with the people they considered their family.

Crewel, Trein, and the others had given them a major scolding when they got back. Being sure to pull Yuu aside into the headmasters office to yell that them specifically, but Yuu couldn’t find it to be mad or even upset with their scolding. Yuu couldn’t be upset when she felt cared for again. The only one missing from that meeting was Crowley, but Trein as assured that he would be back soon. Which brings us to where they are now.

Grim was in Pomfiore sleeping soundly, but Yuu was standing in the wreckage of Ramshackle. Staring the remains of their only home here in the face. She knew it was bad, the remembered it all from the Chirons attack, but somehow seeing everything destroyed after the dust had finally cleared after the whole situation made reality hit that much harder. She took a deep stepping through the door looking around at all the damage.

“Yuu!” The ghost came speeding toward them, they couldn’t hug her so instead the just zipped around her a could times. She laughed, the ghost coming to a stop in front of them, “we’re so happy you’re back! We thought you guys were leaving us for good!”

“Where’s Grim?” One of them asked looking around with concern, the others followed suit like maybe he was just hiding.

“Don’t worry he’s fine, he’s back in Pomfiore sleeping off his big adventure.” Yuu chuckled and the ghost relaxed and smiled, happy to hear their little friend was safe and sound and would be back with them in no time.

Yuu looked around again, at the huge holes in the walls and ceilings. At the stray cauldrons that had broken the floor and the way the stairs that lead to her bedroom were completely destroyed. She pressed her lips into a line, tears starting to well up in she eyes.

“Yuu? What’s wrong?” One of the ghost asked. And that’s what did it, she broke down crying.

“I’m sorry,” she choked out wiping her eyes and trying to breathe even. “I’m so sorry. I’m sorry your home is destroyed, I’m sorry I can’t do anything about it—”

“Hey, hey, it’s ok. It’s not you’re fault.” One of the ghost said. Yuu just shook her head, crying to hard to say anything coherently. There wasn’t much the ghost could do besides remind her it wasn’t her fault the house was destroyed and that it’ll be rebuilt and everything will be ok.

“Yuu?” The new voice made her go still and the ghost silent. Turning around Yuu saw none other than Crowley standing in the doorway.

“Oh- Headmage- I, uh,” Yuu struggled to wipe their eyes free of tears and steady her voice. She hiccuped as she tried to breathe but with a deep breathe she was able to sound at least somewhat normal. “Sorry headmage, is there something you need?” She asked, turning to face him fully.

“I- no. I was just making my rounds on campus to see the damage. Trein informed me Ramshackle was badly damaged, I can see he was quite right.” Crowley said as he walked through assessing the damage, stoping when he came to stand beside Yuu.

She chuckled weakly and sniffed, tilting her head down and swiping at her eyes again. “Yeah… yeah, sorry.”

Crowley gave a questioning hum, “what’s there to be sorry for?”

“I- I don’t know… just am,” they said, their voice quiet.

“Yuu,” Crowley said. His voice more gentle than usual, more concerned. “Are you alright?”

There was hardly a second after Crowley asked before Yuu practically launched themselves at him, throwing their arms around him in a tight hug. Crowley stumbled back with surprise, his arms raised awkwardly like he didn’t know what to do with them.

Yuu was crying again. She just felt so powerless against everything. There was nothing she could do to fix her dorm, there was nothing she could do to stop the Chiron’s from taking the house wardens, nothing she could do when they took Grim. All of the feelings she had been pushing down for the sake of staying focused during the whole Styx mess finally boiling over.

“I- I guess I’ll take that as a no…” Crowley said tentatively.

Yuu apologized again, but couldn’t seem to bring herself to let go of him. Why him she had chosen to break down in front of she didn’t know. It’s not like he had ever been a comforting figure in her time here, or even a very useful one. But slowly, unsurely, Crowley hugged her back, patting her head in a soothing manner. It was enough to make her want to cry even harder.

It was silent between them for a while, with only Yuu’s sniffling and hiccups to be heard. After a few moments Crowley seemed to relax, trying to be gentle as he hugged her back and pat her head, telling her that it was ok and Ramshackle would be fixed and her and Grim would be back here in no time at all. He didn’t know how he would do that but he would get in contact with Styx and work something out, after all they made this mess.

After some time Yuu let go, stepping away from him and wiping their tears and taking a deep breath. “Are you… ok? Now?” Crowley asked, Yuu nodded.

“Better… thanks.” The air was slightly awkward. Crowley didn’t exactly know how to recover to his normal ‘aren’t I so gracious’ personality after watching his most situationally unique student have a full break down.

He cleared his throat before walking over to them and placing his hand on their back, guiding them to the door way. “Why don’t you go back to where you’ll be staying and get some rest. You do have a place to say until Ramshackle is fixed, correct?”

Yuu nodded, “yeah I’m staying in Pomfiore…” there was a long silence, like maybe she wanted to say something else. But she didn’t. “Thanks, I’ll, um, see you in class.”

Crowley nodded and watched as they left down the steps before calling out them. He only spoke when they stopped and turned to face him. “Don’t worry about Ramshackle. I’ll handle everything and make sure it gets fixed,” he said spreading his arms, “after all I am very generous!”

Yuu just blinked at him for a moment before breaking out into a laugh. After some time they had grown to find Crowley’s antics annoying, but after the moment that just happened his usual return to form was much welcomed. She waved at him as a final goodnight and started her walk back to the mirror chamber feeling much lighter than she had before.

Crowley was left with his many thoughts standing in Ramshackle, but he didn’t dwell on anything for to long. But he would check on the prefect and Grim officially tomorrow, that he made sure to promise to himself.

Yuu snuck back into Pomfiore, back into the empty room she was staying in. Grim was exactly where they left him curled up on the bed under the fluffy duvet. She smiled as they climbed into the bed, curling around Grim to cuddle him as he snuggled sleepily back into their arms. For once though, they believed Crowley would follow through on his word with Ramshackle, and that everything would be alright.

[rose-in-a-fisted-glove]

Hi it’s the SU anon here I’m very sorry for how much I upset you, and I seriously wanted to piece tgt what I’m missing from the Jewish viewpoint so I appreciate u still being open to talking to me despite the ignorance. Also disclaimer I’m born and raised in Malaysia so I’ve not met an actual Jew in person until very recently in uni, so all I know is from the messy pile on the internet and I do genuinely learn from ur posts when I see them.

From what I see on ur blog u do show quite a lot of sympathy to the all the cruelty happening in Gaza, but don’t tolerate this being used as an excuse to target Israel/Jewish ppl. I do understand that the whole concept of pushing for an Israel/jewish ethnostate is very much entwined with the history of Jewish culture and the antisemitism endured through different times, so I think this is the part where I made the most ignorant statement on? After rereading what I wrote it might also have sounded like all Jews hold extremely reactionary views towards the word “ceasefire”? Pls do point out more of what upset u, I take full responsibility for what I said and pls stop this convo at any point if I end up offending u more.

Recognizing that you don't know something is the first step towards fixing it. It's good that you thought on your previous ask and tried to research it! But you're missing an awful lot so let's start from the top.

(As a reminder and so others can seee, here's the original ask)

"Hi, this a question abt ur opinion on what’s happening in Gaza just bc you’re one of my favourite blogs that goes deep into Jewish culture/issues. If at any point this question becomes annoying pls ignore.

Anyways so in my college SU meeting recently someone sent in a motion to make an official statement to condemn the war and call for immediate and permanent ceasefire + provide more support to the Jewish and Muslim/Arab students affected by increased hate in the community as well. This sparked a debate among those in attendance and of course there’s a few very pro-Israel voices that insists that a ceasefire will cause Israel to lose all ability to defend itself as well as many pro-Palestine arguments. The motion ended up discarded bc of procedural reasons but as someone who has mostly held a free Palestine view so far and has been hoping for a more inclusive Israel in the future, I don’t understand why stopping a war hurting both sides is taken as an Israel must disappear take by many. I always just accepted it as it’s probably got a lot more antisemitic undertone when it’s a Jew that hears it, but I really wanna hear ur take as well bc the debate I witnessed brought up very disturbing points that I can’t stop thinking about. Hope this didn’t end up sounding disrespectful and thanks for always sharing important Jewish viewpoints without undermining other social issues!"

First problem comes right with the opening sentence; "Hi, this a question abt ur opinion on what’s happening in Gaza just bc you’re one of my favourite blogs that goes deep into Jewish culture/issues."

Going to random Jews who do not post about the conflict and asking for their "stance" on it is part of a series of antisemitic loyalty tests and is extremely rude on top of it. Furthermore, speaking on Jewish cultures and issues and antisemitism is not the same as being experienced or knowledgeable on international conflicts.

And then your next paragraphs are of course riddled with anti-Israeli biases and examples that you've been listening to/reading propaganda uncritically, such as "wanting a more inclusive Israel" and in your more recent ask saying things like "I do understand that the whole concept of pushing for an Israel/jewish ethnostate is very much entwined with the history of Jewish culture and the antisemitism endured through different times". So you clearly have a basic lack of knowledge about both Israel and the conflict in general along with Zionism itself.

But, again, that's not an area I talk about much. If any of the folks who do talk about it, see this and want to go into it, please do! Just to repeat here, you shouldn't have been asking me in the first place.

Then, this part here, showed me that you have a history of dismissing antisemitism as Jews being overly sensitive "I always just accepted it as it’s probably got a lot more antisemitic undertone when it’s a Jew that hears it." And then that was compounded by your closing insult, "thanks for always sharing important Jewish viewpoints without undermining other social issues!"

And that closing insult told me that I had woefully failed in sharing any information about antisemitism at all. "Sharing important Jewish viewpoints without undermining other social issues". Jewish "viewpoints" and antisemitism are just as important as any other sort of bias. Pointing out antisemitism and sharing stories about antisemitism does not, and can not, undermine other social issues. It is not lesser. Honestly, I'm still kind of livid over that shot.

❅ “You're Mine” ❅

character: yandere! bakugou katsuki [boku no hero academia]

warning: yandere, slight violence ; MINORS/AGELESS BLOGS DNI, PUT YOUR AGE IN BIO/PINNED POST TO INTERACT

words: 1k

a/n: this is a repost from my main blog (@/hikari-writes) so yes this writing is old + bad, i just moved them here w/o editing bc im lazy and wants to keep reminding myself how bad my writing used to be <3 this was a request too! Sort of related to this post,,,,

“Hey, Bakugou! That’s MY egg rolls!!”

Kaminari protests at Bakugou who just stole his dish right in front of his eyes.

“Shut up, dunce face! You don’t know how to appreciate good food!”

Bakugou shoves away Kaminari’s face and starts to chomp on the stolen egg rolls.

You just stare at their antics with a wry smile on your face. You’re surprised these two never got bored of arguing about this stuff every time you come to their dorms.

You don’t exactly know what causes it, but lately, Bakugou’s been more aggressive on stealing food from Kaminari. He has done this several times before but recently, it just seems different than usual.

You weren’t even kidding when you said that Bakugou stole about 75 percent of Kaminari’s food each time you brought him one.

While you appreciate the fact Bakugou holds the food you make to such high regard, you’re not exactly sure what he meant when he said Kaminari doesn’t know how to “appreciate” good food. It’s not as if Kaminari doesn’t enjoy your cooking or anything. In fact, he seems tremendously upset when Bakugou stole his food.

Maybe Bakugou just wanted more of your food but was too shy to admit to that so he stole Kaminari’s food instead and covered it up by saying he “doesn’t know how to appreciate good food”.

That’s what you originally had thought anyway.

Today, Bakugou has stolen at least 80 percent of Kaminari’s food and you’re starting to feel bad for the electric boy. You take one of your egg rolls and bring it closer to Kaminari’s face.

“Open wide, honey~”

You jokingly said in a motherly tone. Kaminari has always been like a younger brother to you and sometimes he also makes your female motherly instincts kick in, so it’s always natural for you to act like that sometimes around him. Kaminari himself understands your intentions when doing this, so it’s not as if what you’re doing is considered flirting or anything.

But a certain spiky-haired blondie isn’t taking what you’re doing as some kind of motherly gesture.

Oh, no. It’s far from that. In his eyes, it almost feels like flowers are growing in the background as you’re about to feed Kaminari.

And he isn’t liking it one bit.

So he did what felt like the right thing to do in the heat of the moment.

Boom!

You and the Bakusquad members all turn to Bakugou who’s facing the table he just exploded using his quirk. You look at him in great concern, wondering what suddenly got into him for him to suddenly blow the table like that.

“Bakugou? You okay?”

At this point, all attention is directed towards him but he still refuses to face any of you. You heard him mumbling something under his breath, but even when you’re sitting next to him, it’s still hard to comprehend what exactly he was saying.

“Sorry, what was—”

Before you got the chance to ask him what he was saying, he suddenly stood up and yanked your hand, forcibly making you stand up.

You wince in pain and look at him in confusion. Kirishima wastes no time and starts to stand up as well when he saw what Bakugou did to you.

“Hey, Bakugou, why did you do that? That’s no way to treat a girl.”

He looks at him in disapproval. Bakugou stays silent with his head still facing down. You’re starting to get scared of him at this point. Mina takes notice of your discomfort and starts to approach you two.

“F-for now, just, let go of her hand…”

In no time at all, Bakugou abruptly takes off with his iron grip still around your wrist. You almost fall as a result of losing your balance but his grip on you helps keep your balance.

This took everyone by surprise, but none of them made any effort to stop him. Rather, it’s more like everyone doesn't dare to stop him. Without you noticing, before Bakugou took off, he had sent a menacing glare directed towards the others. It was unlike his usual glare that they’re so used to. No…this time, it looks genuinely threatening.

The glare almost felt like a silent warning from him to not follow the two of you. They were glued to their seats as soon as they saw it. You don’t bother to question why your friends didn’t come after you since you’re too busy trying to match with Bakugou’s rapid footsteps.

~~**~~

“Bakugou! Hey, what’s wrong?! Let me go!”

You desperately try to pull back your wrist but he continues to ignore your apparent discomfort and pleas.

After dragging you for God knows how long, he finally stops and as if dragging you so suddenly wasn’t enough, he then slams your body to a wall and grabs both your shoulders, completely trapping you.

You grimaced in pain at the roughness of his grips. His nails felt like they’re digging into your skin, making you glare up at him. You’re starting to lose your temper at the explosive boy but your mouth was kept shut when you saw the look in his eyes.

His expression is so cold and unreadable. His eyes are glinting dangerously, making you feel scared more than angry at him.

“Did you think you can just do that and expect to get away with it?”

He asks in a low, grumbling voice. You look at him in confusion.

“Do what? What do you mean?"

"Flirting with that dunce face.”

This made your confusion grew. Since when were you flirting with Kaminari? Rather, why is he so disturbed by the thought of it? In the heat of the moment, you let your anger and frustration get the better of you and reply to him with the last thing you’re supposed to reply with.

“Even if I did, what is it to you? It’s not as if you’re my boyfriend or anything, so why do you care?”

“Because you’re fucking MINE, Y/N.”

He hissed these words while his nails keep digging into your skin. You yelped in pain at his painful clutch. It took you a while to process what he had just said because of the pain but once it did, you look at him in disbelief.

“What the…”

“What, did I stutter? I said you’re MINE. And you forever will be, whether you like it or not.”

[littlespoonevan]

i really want to know your opinion on last night's episode! do you think we finally saw Eddie's oh moment? I see a lot of people talking about it and about his heartbreak but I'm not seeing it? like I see eddie upset about what buck is saying, but that could easily be platonic imo, my best friend saying someone else actually sees them? that would make me feel awful, like I'm here??? I see you??? and i get eddie feels lonely as well, but i dont ser that particularly related to him realizing he's in love w buck, idk idk what are your thoughts?

askjdhlf okay. where do i begin??? i should preface by saying i only got a chance to watch the last 25 mins of the ep like an hour and a half ago bc of how long it took for the ep to upload this morning so i'm still very much processing bUT

that cemetery scene was a lot.

to start by answering your question, i don't think we got an oh moment in the deliberate sense?? by that i mean, i don't think this was the show telling the audience "this is it!!!! this is the moment eddie realises he's in love with buck!!!!!" however i do think that scene did A Lot to suggest something big and buddie-related in the pipeline.

something about the tone of it felt very different to what we've gotten previously???? it's most certainly one of the longest conversations they've ever had at 3 minutes uninterrupted. it's also one of their most serious and touched on a wide range of topics (like it felt almost like a post-ep coda fic conversation to me????? askdjfh) and i think it's interesting that twice now in 6b we've had meaningful conversations between them that don't involve chris being brought up. because that's been something i've always said was maybe missing when it came to the possibility of them becoming canon??? we have so many conversations that emphasise buck/eddie/chris as a family but very few conversations between buck and eddie just about them and their friendship/relationship, y'know??

likewise eddie's reaction to natalia was in very stark contrast to the usual way he sort of snarkily comments on buck's relationships. @mellaithwen made the great catch that it paralleled buck talking about ana in 5x02 and it also reminded me of eddie's reaction to abby??? in the way it was this sort of weary-frustrated-resigned combination where he Knows this won't end well for buck and he's maybe a little bit annoyed at buck's lack of regard for himself (in 3x18 bc he's willing risk his own life for abby to save her fiancé even after she left buck the way she did and now with natalia in a 'how can you say she sees you better when the version of yourself you're showing her isn't you' way)

there's also just the big giant elephant in the room where buck is talking about how natalia sees him when eddie is the one who's always Seen him - all the way back to "to be seen to be found, isn't that what we're all searching for?". eddie is the one who constantly validates buck's feelings, who understands his reasons for the choices he makes, who knows exactly what to say to make buck open up. he even does it in this scene!!!!!! when he says "you don't have to be anything for anyone". it felt like a big fat example of dramatic irony tbh

and i think for me, regardless of what happens on the actual show, when it comes to how i write and approach canon in fic that scene acts as confirmation of my favourite headcanon that eddie knows about his feelings but buck has no fucking idea. and while we may or may not ever get real confirmation of that in canon, i think you can for sure read the scene that way without twisting it into something it's not :')

overall, you know i'm the most cautious person alive when it comes to canon buddie but i do genuinely, genuinely feel something has shifted in this scene even if it's not a definitive oh moment for now💛

I am watching some clips on YouTube from Bagi and Cellbit's lives(It's the video Cellbit Reads His Diary before he got lost on QSMP Minecraft by Jetmoh) and I'm at the point in the video where Bagi is talking to Cellbit and just... the way he is talking is so reminiscent of how I sound when I'm spiraling or when my twin(@minafeu) is spiraling and it... it hurts.

Like, he has just read diary entries about his lost memories and stuff that implies he saw the horrors of possibly the hybrid project and ran away because of that... and like... now he is standing in front of his twin sister literally spiraling(other a continuation of his spiraling that started his killing spree or one brought on by remembering his childhood or something like that) and just feeling unheard by the person who sound get him the most(this is speculation on my part because of how he is justifying his actions and rambling).

Honestly, it hits a little too close to home because when I'm spiraling and rambling to my twin, I feel super unheard sometimes and that leads to me getting upset and rambling more, seeing no end to the awfulness of everything happening to me. It just speaks to me a lot and reminds me why I relate to him so much. I want to get better and be a better person but trauma can make me spiral just like it might be doing to him. I have no doubt in my mind that his current spiral and killing spree was caused by the hurt of KNOWING he was supposed to have and did have a family but he forgot he did and a mix of that survival instinct that we can see in Fuga Impossível(I haven't really watched it bc I speak English and a little Spanish so it is difficult for me but in what I have seen and heard about he seems to be VERY survival oriented due to his actions and how he treats others) and honestly if we heard more about his time in the war that would probably show up too.

Give my man a break(we all know he isn't getting one any time soon). Anyway, sorry for the rambling the way he was speaking just low-key set something off in me and honestly made me want to psycho-analyze him a little. I honestly just think he has low-key questionable morals thanks to BBH but has a crazy survival instinct that hasn't changed even since he was a child(in one of the books he mentioned wanting to swim far away from the island because of what he had seen(I ran them through google translate, the translation could be totally wrong but I'm pretty sure it was right)). Cellbit has made such an interesting character to follow and look at and I honestly just want to study his cubito's brain despite not wanting to be a psychologist or anything like that.

I'm working on others for those I haven't done, so have two.

1. Mirajane!Silver

Essentially Disamonia's big sibling despite being human, Mirajane!Silver is a loving and caring person who treats their friends, and even strangers, with kindness. They play a big sibling role within Disamonia, and is often seen running around Ramshackle, helping with drinks and food alongside the Black Sheep. They have rarely been shown to be in a bad mood, and can tolerate all of the eccentricities of NRC. They used to work as one of the staff at Octavinelle, but soon quit to pursue being a swimsuit model and look after the rest of the Black Sheep.

2. Aponia!Flamm

Aponia!Flamm is is a very soft-spoken person. They somehow manages to stay that way even when they're upset. Despite their calm demeanor, they are someone who shouldn't be messed with. Despite what happen to their brother, Aponia!Flamm doesn't go through with their older sibling's plan and had left their town behind to live in the Shaftlands because Rollo is too lost in his grief to think rational and about what their brother would want. They were actually go to NRC than NBC and have brought up their brother to the Black Sheep group during a club meeting. Despite their calm and soft-spoken nature, Aponia!Flamm actually misses Rollo and their brother.

oooh i can see mirajane!silver being found by lilia with a lil baby silver so they already grew up as silver's big sibling. and then that only continued when they got to diasomnia, only they basically adopted all of the lil freshmen and black sheep bc they remind mirajane!silver of lil baby silver :]

and aponia!flamm bringing rollo to a lil black sheep get together!! ugh i can see them continuously bringing him to hang out with the other black sheep, who just sort of accept him? like they don't really care that aponia!flamm is bringing someone who has really radical views on magic. they're just happy to have a new friend :D (rollo swears they're not friends but--)

omg i have smthing to rant about and it isn’t even me being fake i just needddd to get this off my chest

basically there’s this one girl in my friendship group but me and her never talk, we don’t even follow eachother on social media anywhere , the only reason we are close in proximity is bc my friends are friends with her but every time she opens her mouth or laughs it triggers me like STFUUUU

me and her were never close and she’s mean she doesn’t understand boundaries and she would be too touchy with one of my friends although my friend told her to stop multiple times (weirdo)

and i remember when her and one of her friends used to like be quite mean with me and like laugh at my makeup touching my face without consent trying to wipe it off but when i brought it up today with her she laughed in front of everyone and was like “i never did that and i remember that day well” k well i remember my face being touched by your crusty musty dirty hands

and she gets offended every time me and one of my friends from the friendship group separate and go on side quests together bc i love my friends and value quality time , i remember a time i walked off with one of my friends to watch matt edits with her bc she loves matt and only both of us know who the triplets are , so that girl made it suchhhh a big deal and started shit talking me to other people about how i always avoid her and walk off and i should respect the fact that the ppl i walk off with are her friends too like girl stfu theres a reason why they are coming with me and not staying with you like sorry ur insecure if you have a problem with what i do , tell it to me straight

and she babies me ……….. she’s like 4’9 and i’m 5’4

she is wants to be so relevant and leader of the group core I HATE IT

i want her goneeeeeeee my life is so perfect when i dont see her just seeing her today made me upset i had to go hang out with my crush and take a walk outside with some new friends i made (love them 💞)

(i need a diary) (sorry)

This reminds me of a person i know i literally got triggered reading this ignore that woman she is a problem 😭😭😭 And confront her if she tries saying sum

hey what if i made an ffvii au based around a very niche musical i enjoy. woe dolls of ffvii be upon ye

the narrator : the Planet itself (tells the story, also tries to warn people about the consequences of their actions but cannot be heard by the rest of the cast) the gambler and the monk : JENOVA and a cetra (maybe ifalna, maybe just a random one. its not like theyre mentioned by name anyway) jasper : grimoire valentine (this is mainly bc annabel had to be lucrecia) annabel : lucrecia (she canonically sort of brought vincent back from the dead. sort of. she probably wouldve brought grimoire back if she could have. its also lowkey implied that she may have had a crush on grimoire?)

((now heres where the roles go off the rails in regards to what their original relationships were))

edgar : hojo fay : vincent (THATS RIGHT BAY BEE IF JASPER IS GRIMOIRE VINCENT HAS TO BE FAY. whos the guy vincent leaves hojo for when he realizes Oh This Guys Fucked Up Actually? probably cid or reeve. i dont really ship vincent with anyone so like. as long as its not one of the Kids. anyway also thinks about how grimoires last words in canon are "tell vincent im sorry". thinks about "i took the liberty of bringing your dear old dad back. you can talk to him again! but only if you come back and marry me". thinks) byron : sephiroth (let sephiroth be an anarchist lmao) amelia : angeal ("amelia"s shitty dad is hollander obvs) priscilla : aerith (the obvious choice, but also im always thinking about the similarities between aerith and vincent (vincents similarities with cloud are far more obvious, but listen to me. aerith and vincent have their parallels too). priscilla reminding jasper of fay (aerith reminding grimoire of vincent)) soldier 7285 : theres so many people it could be but im leaning towards zack or cloud? everyone else gets to be voodoopunks

BUT TUMBLR USER REDROBEMERLE NONE OF US IN THE FF7 FANDOM HAVE ANY CLUE WHAT DOLLS OF NEW ALBION IS! YOU ADMITTED IT'S NICHE AS HELL!

The Dolls of New Albion: a Steampunk Opera is a folk opera by Paul Shapera

the opera is split up into four acts, each following a generation of a single family. each act has a narrator telling you about the world as time passes. while not all of it is directly relevant to the story at hand, it tells you something interesting about the world. however, there is a recurring motif of a gambler and a monk who played a never-ending card game. this is important later. the city of new albion was built around them by the people who came to watch them play. but more importantly, in the Now, annabel(/annabelle/annabella. the script cant decide how its spelled) mcalistair is raising up the dead

okay so basically. annabel had a big ol crush on a guy in school. they had never talked until one day they talked and kissed and they became friends for a little bit. but then annabel was expelled for stealing cadavers for her own research. and she became a shut-in and he got married then died young. and she's figured out how to call his soul down into a doll she has built!

the doll is very lifelike but cant really move and cannot talk but he can play the radio! isnt he great? look at annabels doll everyone! she can go anywhere now bc hes proof that shes brilliant! shes conquered life and death! but not everything you love loves you in return. and when she realizes that he cannot, will not ever love her back or speak to her, he doesnt want to be back, she destroys the doll. and throws all of her notes in an old trunk in the attic.

and so passes the first generation.

the narrator informs us that annabel gets married and has a son named edgar at some point. edgar grows up and falls in love, as people often do, with a woman named fay, and on the night he was planning to propose to her, she tells him that while she loves him and she really tried to make the relationship work, hes got Issues and so she leaves him for another man.

in his anger, when edgar goes through the old trunk in the attic and finds annabels notes on necromancy, he makes a business out of it! he summons back the souls of the dead for anyone who asks and pays, and when his business becomes successful enough he uses the money and influence he has to run the business of fays new partner into the ground.

he goes and finds fay and is like. "look. i have a very successful business. the man that you say you love is ruined and poor and I know you cant live like that. and whats more than that, you know your dead dad who you loved so dearly? yeah i brought him back for you, but the only way you can talk to him is if you come back and get married to me. :)" and fay does but shes also like "what the fuck. i actually loved you once why did you end up like this this is why i left you in the first place" also the person whose soul edgar brought back is jasper, the same man annabel brought back originally.

and so passes the second generation.

edgar and fay have a son named byron. now, byron becomes a voodoopunk. voodoopunk is one part religious movement, one part political party, one part punk subculture. yes i know voodoo is a closed practice i dont know that the person who wrote this does and yeah.

so basically his whole plan is to run jasper for mayor? and theres this girl named amelia whos also running with the voodoopunks. it is unclear how old she is, but she is referred to as "a girl" rather than "a woman", so it is likely she's either a teenager or a young adult.

but jasper has figured something out. jasper has figured out how to string together songs on the radio to finally speak for himself. and byron is like "here listen to our doll give you a speech and prove that the dead can run this country better than any of the vultures that are politicians in any part of the political spectrum!"

and jasper sings.

and he sings about how he did not want to be brought back. death was peaceful and he did not want to be here.

and amelia heard this. and she had no friends. and she lived only with her father who was abusive (presumably both verbally and physically? it is never elaborated upon but we do know its at least verbal.)

and she kills herself with only the words of the song jasper sang as her note.

at which point theres public outcry bc ALL the dolls have been singing this song. in the publics eyes, the dolls killed amelia. and so people start rounding up the dolls -- who there are more of than living people in new albion by now -- and burning them alive (for a given definition of alive? its really more of releasing their souls again but really violently) byron manages to "save" jasper though.

and so ends the third generation.

we revisit the card game. the gambler died of a heart attack during the final hand, and cursed with his dying breath that the game was not yet finished, promising the two would come back to finish it one day.

and so begins the fourth generation.

New Albion has become a military police state, killing anyone with any sort of memorabilia of the dead. we see priscilla, byrons daughter, hiding in a basement and playing a never-ending game of cards with jasper. (YEP THATS RIGHT ITS KINDA IMPLIED THAT JASPER AND PRISCILLA ARE THE REINCARNATIONS OF THE MONK AND THE GAMBLER, and even if theyre not, theyre still the ones continuing the game they started).

we also see soldier 7285 join the police.

priscilla loves her great grandfather jasper dearly -- and he loves her back. she reminds him of fay, when fay was younger and more innocent, and jasper lets slip during their card game that he still wants to die but he is willing to stay because he wants priscilla to live even more. because if theyre found, they both die.

priscilla is like what the fuck thats not? fair??? why should you have to sacrifice your death for my life??? and she thinks about it. and decides that a life of hiding isnt much of a life at all.

and she calls the cops on herself.

a firing squad happens, despite jasper doing all he can to prevent it because her life for his death isnt fair to her, either.

but soldier 7285 doesnt fire.

he is court martialled and stripped of his duties/rank for it. soldier 7285 thinks about how priscilla loved jasper so much she was willing to die if it meant his freedom, and goes. hey what the fuck sort of country do i serve that thinks caring about the people we loved past their deaths is punishable by death??? im going to tear this country down and rebuild it on the graves of the people who decided this, and if i die in the process, at least i can be a martyr and inspire people to finish what i started the way she inspired me.

and thats the dolls of new albion!

♥ What's the WORST thing that has happened to you rp wise?

((HOO BOY, y'all are going to have to buckle up for this one, because it's going to be a wild ride. I usually tell the same story for this, but I have a more recent example that I honestly consider worse for how profound the impact it had on me was. I kept it bottled for months, but now I'm comfortable talking about it.

In late 2021, I made a friend in the rpc, I'll just call them friend/my friend. We hit it off really well, became super close friends nearly overnight. I added them on discord, added them to my personal rp server, they added me to theirs, and it was great. We got along like a house on fire...until around March of 2022.

We were both burned by a person we had told things to in confidence, and it really fucked us both up, but ended up kinda bringing us closer together? It was a really stressful month, but we both lost friends over it. As all of this was happening, I was the person who heard everything; this person made me their confidante, their backboard for what is and isn't acceptable behavior, and no matter what advice I gave, they didn't seem to want to listen to me.

I really cared about this person and when they complained to me about their friends not caring enough about them, not putting in enough effort into their friendships, I busted my ass trying to put in effort. Because, you know, I cared about this person. But no matter what, the effort wasn't reciprocal. It was never enough and I pretty much only got more complaints and vents in the meantime.

This person also had no conflict resolution skills and if they had a problem with something somebody in my server did, they basically used me to talk to everyone; I was their mouthpiece/shield from blame. On my literal fucking birthday, I invited them to watch a bad movie with us and they left like 10 minutes in after barely saying anything/not even talking because they felt talked over. i was the only one made aware of this and it ruined the last bit of what was supposed to be a good day. When they took a sarcastic remark from someone in the group seriously? I was the one who had to talk to the other person about it.

When they left my server, they came to me for reassurance and to make sure I didn't hate them, only to immediately insinuate that I was going to run them off tumblr/discord "just like everyone else." I ended up crying, basically having a panic attack, and we talked it out because I was trying to communicate, like a good friend. Any time we had any sort of disagreement, I was reminded how awful every single other friend group they'd been in was. I was criticized for things I didn't even do, because I should "reign my friends in better", and somehow I still didn't see that I was a frog in boiling water.

Oh, but they were always allowed to call me out for things. I apologized, I tried so hard to be better, but it always felt like another criticism was just around the corner. Not to mention their friends, who I had never spoken a cross word to, accused me of being weird/a literal robot??? because I didn't say much in their server or would repeat messages a lot. Nevermind we're both autistic and I tend to do that bc words are hard. Never got an apology for that btw.

And that brings me to December, when I wanted to do that event with my muse rediscovering herself and breaking down. This person pretty much hijacked it and made it all about how Shy sucked and was so mean to their character, it made me so sour for that entire event...I'd wanted this for a long time and hinted at it, and I should have honestly put trigger warnings on the post I made, and for that I do apologize because it was heavy subject material.

I finally told them that I was upset over how things went, and they proceeded to blame me, and say they didn't know I wanted a certain response to things, and said they "didn't know they weren't allowed to not respond" and I brought up the fact that whenever I dislike something they do, they always brought up how all their friend groups turn on them and it felt like I was never allowed to disagree. Their response?

To blame me, of course! And to point out that they're always the target of everyone else's anger and to not take any! accountability! at! all! I apologized for what I did, but did they? Not a fucking chance. They actually told me that if I was upset, I should yell at them and they'd either take it or block me. So I walked away. I said I needed space, and I promised not to tell anyone why we stopped being friends, and they told me that I "had the power to run them off of tumblr."

So I internalized that shit. I didn't tell anyone what happened, not even my closest friends. I gaslit myself into believing I was this horrible shitty person who was a bad friend and made up a reason to leave someone because I didn't like being called out for my bullshit.

And recently, a mutual of ours softblocked me, and it hit me; why am I protecting them? I can only imagine what horrible shit they told that person about me. They told me all the time about how awful and terrible everyone they knew was. Why was I expecting to be any different after they stopped being my friend?

I basically had a near nervous breakdown because of what this person put me through and while I'm not naming names, I know they like to keep tabs on people who've unfriended them in the past, so if you're reading this "friend", you know what you did and that you hurt me. I finally feel okay to talk about this, all the blaming and guilt tripping you did, and all of the nights I had to be your emotional tampon because I gave a damn about you and wanted to be there for you. I wasn't perfect, but god damn neither were you.

The moral of the story is, if someone says "but you're different", it means "jump through hoops so you can keep proving you're different, and when you inevitably get tired of how I act, I'll write you off as just like all the rest of them." The other moral is, don't protect people who hurt you, because they won't protect you.))

OKAY SO this isn't a request but i had a scenario i started thinking about last night when i tried to sleep that i wanted your opinion on (johnny on the brain always, unfortunately) and it's just... can you imagine being like, an honorary family friend of the sawyers (your grandparents were close with their grandparents back before times got hard and they had to resort to doing what they had to do, and now, while your folks are gone now and it's just you, drayton considers you off-limits out of respect for old grandpa) and you live a little bit far off from their farmland on your own dingy little farm. it's inherited from your parents, and it's... fucked up. you've got a lot of seeds, but nothing grows, and the house needs worked on and you just *don't* know the first thing about fixing any of it. you're, admittedly, pretty oblivious to what the sawyers do---you never come around without being invited and it's usually just a quick chat with drayton at the end of the road, and on the off chance you're driving your dad's beat up old truck close to their farm and hear any screaming you just think they have some really weird goats---but your visits are always short-lived and you haven't gotten to meet the new additions to the family yet. maybe you drive by to see drayton, drop off some seeds as a gift 'cause right now nothing's growing for you and they're just being wasted, and you mention something offhand about a rusty shed door that won't open or a leaky roof and drayton, after pulling him aside and giving him a very thorough talking to (you don't want to upset grandpa, after all, and your old folks WERE really good to them when they were living) about how he better not try anything, drayton sends johnny back with you to fix something as thanks for the seeds (because let's be honest, drayton doesn't have it in him anymore and johnny is arguably the most.. casual. able to act normal, if you will). so now you've got a sweaty, attractive greaser here to fix your roof that you've never met before. you feel bad about him having to do all the work because you're just so darn *clueless*, so you might as well make some lemonade and cut some watermelon so he can get a quick break from the heat! you keep sneaking glances and admittedly he's real charming, so it's not just the texas heat getting to you. maybe he thinks you're real sweet, if maybe a little oblivious. airheaded? whatever the word for it, you're certainly pretty amusing, and you're already pretty clearly off-limits for *killing*, but drayton never said anything about testing OTHER boundaries, now did he?

omg i love this sm. the fact that reader is normal because they never got brought up in some cannibal patriarch like the sawyers. but who knows, maybe the crops aint growing bc there’s family secrets buried in the soil?👀

also yard work johnny goes through my mind constant because he reminds me of the hot pool cleaners in movies or greaser mechanics. like i just know outside of killing this man is passed about made to do yard work and fix things up. drayton paps him off to fix cars and cut grass for extra cash or southern hospitality and johnny has to begrudgingly do it. but this time his client is hot and naive and fine to look at, so maybe he wants to stick around for a while. point out a leaked pipe so he can fix it and stay for longer, hnng

if you write you should defos make it into a fic, i’d read it in a heartbeat!!

10-24 for wolfman and bubny aaand any other pairing you've been boiling in your head?

i havent done any dnd stuff recently and goose & elk have a longer and spicier relationship than pestle & hibiscus

What was their last big fight? What did they learn from it?

They barely have big fights mainly bc it's usually Lulanna fighting with someone else and Hakon having her back, so it's more like Hakon tracking snow into the house and it melting and Lulu's paws getting wet which she hates. He promised to brush the snow outside

Related to Goose's warlock antics no doubt, or how he's also been spending much more time outside where Elk doesn't know what he's up to. Goose on the defensive. If anything then Elk got even more concerned when learning how unhinged his husband is getting

What good do they bring out in each other?

Hakon calms Lulanna down and she makes him all mushy and loving not just towards her but their kids too

Elk has helped Goose build a lot of confidence and he doesn't feel embarrassed about his habits and emotions in front of him, Goose has likely brought out Elk's nurturing side more and helped him relax a bit, c'mon hun you don't have to get that nervous about me crawling into coast tunnels during low tide

What struggle have they seen each other through?

Lulanna's been at Hakon's side when he's been annoyed at his royal family, Hakon had Lulanna's back when she was on trial for manslaughter

Goose's been a support through Elk's issues with his faith, Elk's been trying to help with Goose's loneliness

How do they express love for each other? Do they have compatible love languages?

Both are kinda handsy, lots of kisses but also grabbing ears or tail or pats on butt through the day. Both also enjoy quiet quality time but Lulanna's more on the move. If she's real happy though she'll just flop down next to him

Touch, hugs, holding hands, kisses, playing with hair and brushing it, cuddling and asking how the other's day has been. Bringing souvenirs and other little gifts, cooking for each other or together, Goose values quality time the most

What little things remind them of each other?

Furs, antlers, smell of dog, the rings they wear for each other

Smell of ocean/salt, shiny rocks, leaves, little crabs

What habits or characteristics have they picked up from each other?

Hakon stomps his foot when annoyed bc Lula does it. She used to think he was trying to pick a fight with her but soon realized. He's started swearing more and she's started swearing less

Goose has become more organized and neater in general, has started to understand more what Elk sees in forests and appreciates them now a lot more too.

How do they react when the other is upset? How do they try to help?

Who do I need to kill/sic the dogs on. They do ask what they can do, usually the upset one just wants a cuddle and maybe a treat and they other will oblige. Bring a cracker or something. Tell a funny story

Elk has a very hard time seeing when Goose is upset and even if he notices and asks Goose will deny it. Hugs go a long way, usually it's just that he's lonely. Give him some attention. If Elk's upset about something Goose will at first believe he's at fault somehow, goes on the lookout for a shiny rock or a pretty flower or something and then asks about it

Do they believe in marriage?

They're married and happily so, but they would be fine if they weren't. They got married so Hakon would legally adopt Lula's kid and they would become nobles and enjoy the benefits

Yes, it's a nice reassurance for Goose also

Would they have kids together?

Ya, just gotta be mindful of the logistics when Hakon is like 8' tall and Lula's like 5'5''

Not really, no

What values do they not share? How do they reconcile those differences?

They have very similar values, but Hakon is obligated to follow some rules that Lulanna thinks are stupid. Land is land. It doesn't belong to anyone. But, to make sure her husband doesn't get in trouble, she follows the rules

Goose is more selfish than Elk and sometimes thinks he gives too much of himself away to others but he doesn't say it because Elk is doing a good thing and helping others.

If they disagree, who's usually the one to compromise?

Hakon

Goose gives up real fast

If they live together, how do they split household responsibilities?

Lula cleans underneath things, Hakon cleans up top. He also handles things that need heavy lifting, she's a pro at gardening.

Elk does the heavy lifting, Goose helps with cleaning and cooking and doing dishes etc., he also enjoys weeding the garden. Elk can shovel the snow while Goose handles sweeping the porch and stairs

What's different about their backgrounds? Do those differences affect the relationship?

Hakon's a noble (he's Fenrir's cousin) who however wasn't really welcomed into the court because his mom was an outsider and his wimp of a dad didn't defend her or their kids' honour, so he grew kinda bitter and when his mom left his dad she took the kids. So he's lived outside of court since his early teens. He did have good schooling, he's smart and educated, but kinda bitter towards nobility and nobles like his cousins. So he prefers to stay away. Lulanna's a country bumpkin from the forest, can read and write but doesn't really put them to use because she doesn't have to, rowdy little orchard thief, an anarchist, throws rocks at you. Surprisingly compatible, Hakon can use his nobility connections to keep her safe and both have a bitterness towards the castle.

Both are from loving families I think, but Goose kinda ended up growing up to an adult who didn't fit anywhere bc of his tendency to screw things up in stupid ways. He's got basic education but he's not big on reading either.

What was their first impression of each other?

Annoyed. Lula didn't like this dumb dogboy butting in on her fun and Hakon didn't like a silly rabbit out here bothering his dogs and trespassing.

Goose thought Elk was very polite and nice and he was nice back at him

How did they fall for eachother?

They had known each other for a bit, had calmed down from being annoyed, kinda crushing, Lula invited Hakon in and he met her baby. The baby didn't like anyone but then she liked him and Lula was like well goddamn I trust my baby's instinct

Running into each other in the forest by accident... going on a spontaneous walk... sitting down to watch the stars... talking and wondering... the stars sure are bright but not as bright as your eyes...

#not settled on how many kids lula and hakon have but at least one was there before they even met #long oc thing #goose just wants to do magic is that too much to ask (uses magic to pulverize a seagull) #ugh i have like multiple full stories in mind but i dont want to write them and even less dm them #maybe one day

[havocmadden]

this is another of my ‘i wanted uma and melody to interact’ fics, much like ‘it took me all of my fire to make it out alive and you left me dead in the water.’ but this one involves fewer curses. i think i also wanted this to be like, kind of a series of various movies' aks and vks meeting each other similar to ‘it runs in the family (we're bad in the blood).’ but i never got past this one so. and also this fic was like. i want to talk about daddy's little angel, which my favorite song in the little mermaid musical and my favorite origin story for ursula ever. also all of ariel and eric's girls have musical names — elle is short for acapella — bc i think that's fun. tw for mentioned child abuse and murder (mostly magic murder, but like, they still died, so).

uma meets melody in a coffee shop. harry and gil had wanted to come with her, but she’d told them no. this was something she had to do on her own. besides, ben and gil are already thick as thieves because ben couldn't hold a grudge if his life depended on it and gil is the human version of a golden retriever. and harry and jane had already bonded over what an asshole harry’s father was, so. they don’t have anything to worry about. not like she does.

melody is tall and willowy, with an undercut with long hair. she has dark hair that uma is sure she inherited from her father. she takes a seat across from uma, a mug of something that smells like cloves in her cup. she smiles apologetically, and uma twists one of her braids around her finger nervously. as part of the agreement with king ben, all villain kids were to be mentored by their hero’s kids as they acclimated to auradon, to ‘forge an atmosphere of peace’. melody, the eldest of ariel and eric’s daughters, had offered to take uma under her wing. uma knows they have a few daughters — she’s seen aria and elle around auradon prep's campus and they share some classes — but it was easier, she thought, to be mentored by melody. at least if this went completely sideways and entirely exploded in their faces, uma didn’t have to look at melody’s face every day in their history of auradon class. ‘ just her sisters, ’ a small voice in her head reminds her, and she shoves it down. 

“i’m melody,” melody says, tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear. “but you knew that already, didn’t you?” uma nods, suddenly stuck silent.

“uma celaeno,” she manages finally. “daughter of ursula. it's, um — ” she struggles to find the right words, the ones that are right in auradon and won't upset anyone. not that uma minds upsetting people, per se, but it has more to do with staying in auradon. even the worst place in auradon is a damn sight better than the isle, and uma wasn't about to step wrong and fuck this up for harry, for gil — hell, for her entire crew. “it's nice to meet you.”

melody smiles, patiently. “do you want something?” she asks, gesturing to the tea she has cradled in her hand, and uma shakes her head. sure, they assured her it was perfectly safe, but the isle was still embedded in uma's bones, in her heart and in her mind, and on the isle, you didn't eat food that wasn't fresh from the barges — well, as ‘fresh’ as auradon's trash could be — or that someone you trusted with your life had brought you. apparently that wasn't how things worked in auradon, but uma wasn't about to take any damn chances. not with melody here. they were.... cousins, sure, but her mother had tried to kill melody's, and uma wasn't about to eat anything in melody's vicinity in case melody had some kind of deluded revenge plot. sure, king ben said ‘this was auradon’ and ‘they didn't do things like that here, uma’ but uma wasn't about to take him at his word — she'd've had some questionable revenge plot if melody had showed up on the isle one day. 

“no, i'm good,” uma says. she twirls one of her braids around her finger absentmindedly. 

melody smiles slightly, though her expression looks vaguely peeved. “suit yourself,” she says, taking another sip of her own drink. “what was life on the isle like? are you adjusting okay?”

“um, it was — ” horrifying. violent. isolating. hungry. “it was. well. it wasn’t great, but...” uma trails off, shrugging. “but i got out.” melody quirks an eyebrow at uma, silently urging her to go on. uma feels self-conscious, suddenly, as though she’s on some kind of trial. “mom didn’t like it much... she’d known what life was like, not on the isle, and i think that made it worse. the isle was all i’d ever known, so... wasn’t much to compare it to, really.”

“your mother got what she deserved.” the words hiss out of melody's mouth like a prayer or a curse. 

“she didn't even do anything wrong!” uma spits in response. she hates her mother, absolutely she does, but she'd been fucked over by triton and melody and uma both knew it. “she was ousted from her throne and then made a deal which your mother tried to break.”

“your mother killed her sisters,” melody spits quickly, and uma pales. melody keeps going, a fire in her eyes. “didn’t she tell you? she told that to triton. spat it in his face when he tried to tell her the people weren’t happy with her rule. she says he took her kingdom from her, but it wasn’t hers. it never should’ve been.” uma watches as melody swallows, hard, before continuing. “their eldest sister cordelia... she spelled her to turn into sea salt, limb by limb, and your mother watched as she drifted apart, feeling her body turn into millions of grains of salt. she could feel every grain of salt that once was her body as it swirled in the ocean. she caught nerissa in a whirlpool and laughed as she spun helplessly around until her head smashed open on a rock. she trapped viola and valeria in a tidepool on shore and let them starve to death. and she wouldn’t tell him what she’d done with nymeria or miranda, but they’ve never been found, so it's a pretty safe bet to assume she murdered them like she did the rest of them. and sure, she didn't kill morgana, but morgana was younger than triton, so there was no point in killing her. she wasn't in your mother's way. and do you know what morgana grew up to do? she tried to kill me.”

“i didn’t know,” uma murmurs without fully meaning to. she hadn’t. her mother had never told her that. only said that her bastard brother had stolen her crown and painted her as a villain in everyone's mind. not that she'd done something to deserve it. not that she'd murdered her own sisters. uma was the only one of ursula's children, something her mother had resented. the isle's magic had prevented her from conceiving, since the barrier around the island kept ursula from entering the water and thus conceiving. when uma had asked how she'd been born, her mother had told her that she'd been concvied when the isle was only a concept, in an attempt to keep king beast from imprisoning her there. maleficent, she'd hissed, had done the same. but it hadn't worked for either of them, and so uma, born to a family with a legacy of many children — ursula had been one of nine; melody's mother had been one of seven and, frankly, uma was sure she'd've had more siblings if melody's grandmother hadn't been rammed on the bow of a ship like the wooden mermaids they crucified there — was an only child. it was something her mother held over her head constantly. she'd never wanted children, no, but she couldn't stand to lose to her brother in anything, and one child was far less impressive than seven. 

“she never told me that part. she just said that her brother stole her crown and painted her as a villain after her niece backed out of the deal.” uma can almost hear her now — ‘does keeping my end of the bargain make me a villain? does it make me evil?’ she'd croon, before flying into a rage and smashing plates against the wall, screeching that it wasn't fair, what had been done to her. and uma had agreed. it hadn't been fair, not at all. it had been wrong, she'd said. wrong that he'd stolen her throne, that beast — technically his name was king adam, but uma had never heard anyone from the isle call him that. to them, he was a monster, the worst kind of beast — had locked her up on the isle.

but how much of that was survival? how much of that was because her mother was screeching at her and throwing plates?

“well, she did,” melody says, running a hand through the non-shaved half her black hair. there's a long beat of silence before she speaks again.

“did you know our cousin tried to kill his nephew?” she asks, half of a half-bitter laugh coming out of her mouth before she continues. “it makes me feel a bit better — at least it's not just our branch of the family that's all fucked up.” uma blinks. she didn't know. she wouldn't have even known she was related to melody and her family at all if her mother hadn't always been going on about her bastard of a brother. 

“no, i didn't,” uma says. “what happened?”

“you haven't heard?” melody asks, her voice low. “honestly, i'd've thought that hades would've been all over the isle, complaining about his punishment.”

“wait, i'm related to hades?” uma asks, confused. hades had never given uma any indication that they were related. granted, he spent most of his time down in the mineshafts, and the interactions anyone had with him other than his children — the triplets, hady, heath, and holly — were, well, few and far between. frankly, if uma hadn't seen his dogs roaming the streets on the regular, she wouldn't even be sure he was still alive. 

melody sighed. “yeah. your grandad — my great granddad — is poseidon, who is hades's brother. which makes him your great uncle.”

“huh,” uma said, and thanked her lucky stars that she'd never done anything with the hades triplets. not that she hadn't thought about it, but they'd run with different circles, and, well. now even just the memory of the thought makes uma's stomach squirm as though it had been turned into eels.

today was so

today has been so shit i was already feeling kind of off bcs i was definitely sleep deprived and over caffeinated but that’s not uncommon for me it just made everything worse bcs in the car my brother and my mom were talking and he casually brought up big city greens and stuff abt their family and my mom made some weird deal abt it and went on this rant that i didn’t even listen to after hearing the first few sentences i just felt sick bcs like my god i know it’s such a stupid thing to be upset abt but as anyone who looked at this account could probably tell cartoons like genuinely mean so much to me and i know it’s stupid but they’re like one of the few things holding me on watching them and being able to see the passion behind them and seeing myself in the characters and imagining that somehow i would get that perfect ending and that everything would’ve happened for some bigger cause and idk it shuts my brain somewhat off for a while so i’ll take it (until i stop watching and then hate life more but) and anyways big city greens family means a lot to me bcs like the characters remind me a lot of my actual family but like if we were actually close and her talking abt how we were somehow better than them just feel like a punch in the gut like i know i know i am definitely dramatic and it’s not even that bad everything either happened years ago or just came from them reacting to problems i caused myself or stuff i’ve just gotten used to by now so like i don’t fucking know why i care so much genuinely what makes me think i deserve any better and then she tried to include me in the conversation but i wasn’t even listening to her anymore so i just gave her a dry response and then she got upset with me and then i just got reminded how much i hate myself so fucking much and then just remembering everything from elementary so vividly like all my senses and it felt like i was suffocating and spoiler alert i wasn’t able to get that feeling off me all day and just like that’s just part of me now i guess bcs i’ll never be the same and literally i just wouldn’t exist without my family so when i got to school i just spent all of homeroom in the school bathroom thinking why am i even like this and then first pd was shit and second(always horrible but today i had an actual assignment i had to do + late work and i spent over an hour of an hour and fifteen minute class staring at my paper trying and failing to actually do anything) and third(sat in a corner alone) and idk my day wasn’t even that bad like recess and club and calling my friend was great i just fucked everything for myself in the beginning of the day so ??

18 + 22 + 36

18) What’s a scene you feel is underrated? i feel like there is not nearly enough discussion over the moment where it's been revealed claudia has been trying to turn her victims into vampires but doesn't know how and is probably physically incapable of doing as a result of being made so young. like one it's just heartbreaking and speaks to the deep loneliness at the core of claudia's character but it also reveals a lot about the mentality with which she approaches her murder victims. like she saves their last words, she killed her first boyfriend, and her keeping of body parts is obviously horrific but it also shows i think that she doesn't just kill randomly, she feels a connection with her victims and certainly there's a sick trophy element to it but there's also a way in which she's quasi mourning them and trying to hold onto reminders... so her actually taking them step of trying to keep them with her always is like, not a well thought out decision, but also i think consistent with her mo and great foreshadowing for her eventual relationship with madeline.

22) Who’s your favorite character? Why? claudia!!!!! i feel like my last answer sort of functions as a why lol but i find her so complex. she's like a great tragic heroine to me whose had monstrous things done to her and does monstrous things in return. she gets written off by lestat and daniel (to a degree, i think he's also trying to provoke louis w some of his comments) as just being a remorseless natural born murder machine, but her lethal instincts exist alongside great care and compassion that we see her show louis over and over, even though he brought on so much of her suffering and will ultimately never choose to put her first. the way she looked after louis in ep 6 and 7 really got me - she's tried so hard to be a good caretaker even though she was supposed to be the one being protected and looked after. the whole eternal youth being a curse is not totally new idea, but i also think they put a unique spin on it and i love how she still finds to assert herself as a woman, not a child, even when trapped in this toxic and abusive environment.

36) What’s an unpopular opinion you have? the episode five discourse is nonsense, which is not an unpopular opinion among the people i follow but lol. i've mentioned before, but i actually did feel triggered after watching the episode and found it quite upsetting to see graphic ipv when i wasn't prepared for it, so i started out trying to give people the benefit of the doubt when they didn't like it. i needed a couple days after watching it to compose my thoughts beyond that was upsetting. but it's a waste of time bc it's seemingly all people actively rewriting reality with lestat's behavior (both show and books) so that he was never abusive to the point of coming up with theories that louis is being tricked or having his memories manipulated (seemingly unaware of the terrible implications that would have or i guess just not caring) or acting as though the presence of sexual violence in a horror series focused on the experience of black characters living in the usamerican south is inappropriate and have no connection to the themes of the show. i find it even more galling when this comes from fans of the book tbh because having read them now i know that there are several extremely graphic on-screen rapes that are handled horribly in the series and that i, at least, never see being brought up, but this is where you draw the line? ok. i see.

[ send a " ⭐ " and i will list muses i would be interested in throwing at yours ]

[ asked by @muutos ]

this one took a while to get to bc i realized how much i wanted birdie to interact with some of ur muses and then got distracted with trying to set up her blog and stuff but im here to answer this now hopefully . my brain is still all over the place please excuse me

[formatting is "your muse - my muse(s) i would like to see with them"]

vanessa - sb verse mikey :] torment this little shit. because the concept of these two interacting is so fucking hilarious im so happy the movie brought it up and this way it doesnt even have to be movieverse. also i NEED her and birdie to interact so so so bad im trying so hard to finish up birdies sideblog its taking forever but i wanted the chance to give them a lil separate space to themselves. uh who else. i have glambun and cassie of course, she can have fun with them, and joshton also has a sb verse!! i know i never talk about him but id love love love to introduce him with vanessa or one of ur other muses

henry emily - cmon. i love your henry so much id willingly throw literally ANY of my muses at him i <3 him. ive already spent eons talking abt how much i love the potential dynamic between him and michael because i DO, so so so much. also just like i said to nic, he can interact with literally any of my animatronics whenever. i NEED interactions with him and lefty there is something so personal about those two. and of course ciarán goes without saying. your henry already gave him too much attention (like. literally one [1] positive sentence so far) and hes already hooked. good luck getting rid of that fucker. hes never letting go. sorry you shouldve known better than to be sweet with him (/lh)

mangle - im ngl i would love to have interactions with them and one of my withered animatronics. or jeremy, yknow,,, before Shit Goes Bad. could be fun. joshton Also has a verse where he works in the fnaf 2 location because i just kinda stick him wherever he would fit so if you wanna use it to traumatize the poor little minimum wage worker go right ahead i think itd be real funny

freddy fazbear - b..bonnie... thats it just bonnie i want the classic duo back i dont care what era. also if you want him to torment mike or josh theyre always up for it, as has been mentioned multiple times

roxanne wolf + glamrock freddy - lumping them together because theyd be interacting with about the same characters. same list as vanessa!!! its so funny because i wasnt interested in sb at ALL before ruin / interacting with you and ur little corner of the rpc and now im. fucken entangled in it. help.

vincent demarco - weve talked abt my interest in him before but like i said every time you rb some musings about him or something i go a little insane. also did you know his birthday is literally one day before mine i just realized it when i checked his bio page. anyway i really wanna toss like. ciar or josh or someone at him at some point just to see what would happen. he just intrigues me i just wanna see whats goin on in that brain of his idk idk

these arent really specific muse matchups but. every time i see you play like. stu or gwen or ar'alani i lose my mind a little and get reminded of all the muses from their medias i could pick up but i have to stop myself bc thats so much WORK. the star wars fixation would be enough to overpower it and make me find someone to interact with ar'alani if it werent for the fact that i havent managed to get my hands on the thrawn books yet and ive never watched star trek so i dont know anything about your interpretation and it makes me so so so upset. anyway this is an open offer (that may not make sense if you havent watched star wars rebels) but if you would like i would pick up ezra bridger to interact with her in a HEARTBEAT. it wouldnt matter how fucking clueless i am because hes clueless as shit too. i am so so sorry if this sounds overbearing or something i do NOT mean for it to be i have just been wanting to play these star wars muses for YEARS now. the star wars community is just so much more terrifying than this little group here. so the fact that someone that i know and trust and have written with before has even Somewhat of a star wars muse has. driven me a little bit insane. (/pos) this is all /nf of course im just. yeah 👍 this probably makes no fucking sense im sorry i am unwell about star wars

“i used to hear a simple song. that was until you came along. now in this place it’s something new. i hear it when i look at you.”- i hear a symphony-cody fry

dear my sweet ellie. you bring such a huge smile to my face. i met you in fall 2023. my dad was asked to take some cargo,he didn’t want me to be alone as he knew this would probably take a while because his last one took a week. i am so glad he let me come. we met with marlene and she took us to u,u tried to kill us at first but i thought it was cute u were trying to protect marlene. my dad was angry that the cargo was a kid,he got even angrier when he realized u were bit. on our first couple of days he was quiet and rude to u,as of i tried to keep my distance knowing he wouldn’t like me talking to u that much. when we lost tess,he was so upset. u didn’t know this but he loved her,even if he didn’t show it. he shut us both out for a while but we kept each other company,we grew closer and closer. u told me so many jokes,they were stupid but it was cute,u were always so proud of them and that’s what i loved ab u. u were also so so stubborn,it was hard to convince u to do things but u always gave in. i got attached to u because u reminded me so so much of sarah,u reminded joel of her too. which is why he shut u out.

the day my dad got impaled,i was so so scared i was gonna lose him. i couldn’t get a hold of myself. but u were there for me,u helped me,u got us food,u helped me take care of him,and i have always thanked u for that. i was so scared when u got taken by david. i couldn’t find u. i thought i lost u. i stayed with joel while trying to figure out what to do,he woke up and we immediately started looking for u…when we found u i was heart broken,i’ve never seen u so sad,so angry. u were scary,but after what i heard he did to u. i wasn’t scared anymore. bc i would’ve done the same thing. u fought like hell to get to the fire flies and i adored u for that. we almost lost you though,knowing the surgery was gonna kill u. my dad couldn’t let that happen,he didn’t want to lose u and neither did i. i know u were upset,u didn’t know the reason,all u knew is that ur immunity meant nothing.

i am so glad i have u. i am so glad i get to see u laugh,smile. i love our nights when we just cuddle and talk. i love when u take me out on romantic dates even though u hate them. i love u with everything in me. u always brought back supplies and stuff u new i would like when u went on patrol. u were always so great and u will always be so great. after joel died,u were there for me,u comforted me. u made sure i ate food,as i also made sure u ate. we were both broken. but we healed each other. u always made sure i was okay,u gave me the biggest hugs when i needed it. i love when u let me play with ur hair,u don’t let anyone else do it and it makes me feel so so special. u always brought back any snack u could find just so we could watch a movie and eat them. u made me feel myself again after joel. u made me realize how much i mean to people. i love u so so much ellie,i love our midnight talks knowing we should get sleep for our patrols. we always snuck out,even thought we weren’t good at it and we would get caught by mary,but it was still so much fun doing it with u my love. u r my everything. u know everything ab me,u love me even when i yell at u,u give me space when i need it,u shower me with love,support and gifts. u’ve always been there for me through our ups and downs,no matter how bad it got and i thank u for that. i thank u for everything u have done to keep me safe,u always will and always have protected me. i could write paragraph after paragraph to u. i wish u could see urself the way i do. u did nothing wrong,none of it was ur fault and i hope one day u realize it. u did what any person would do,and so did i. we lost ourselves together and that’s all that matters to me bc we were together,we were in it together. we picked each other up,we helped each other when we were hurt and i’m so glad i still have u.

i love u my love,u will always be every thing to me.
