D.A.M.N Crew Headcanons Part 3 (Ft. Kody, Xavier, and Avior)
Not as many Kody and Xavier headcanons as I wish there would be, but they’re still there. Enjoy!
- Caelum had his front tooth kicked out by one of his older brothers on accident.
- Freelancer will never let anyone else crack the eggs if they’re baking something. It always has to be them, not even Caelum can do it if they’re around.
- Damien has busted his ass while skating once and never touched a skateboard again.
- Lasko can use a hoverboard but lives every second in anxiety and fear when the low battery sound plays.
- Huxley’s instagram is just full of pictures of his moms and rocks with googly eyes.
- Lasko and Huxley say “Golly” unironically.
- Caelum enjoys chocolate ice cream.
- Freelancer prefers French Vanilla.
- Xavier has sung “Nations of the World” from the Animaniacs perfectly after only watching it once.
- Gavin can do the “disappearing thumb” trick.
- He’s done it in front of Caelum but Caelum started to cry after he saw it.
- Damien can write and speak in cursive.
- Damien can understand Russian script.
- Huxley has always wanted to give Damien a piggyback ride, and only got to do it after they got together. It was the best thing ever. For Huxley, anyway.
- Lasko likes to watch Ni-Hao Kai Lan.
- Whenever someone tells Freelancer to pose, they always do a peace sign.
- Gavin bullies people on Discord.
- When Freelancer and Gavin first met, Freelancer genuinely didn’t know he was getting sucked off until he mentioned it.
- Caelum likes growing his hair out, so whenever Delphinus says it’s time to cut it, he flies to the highest altitude he can muster and just…stays there…until Delphinus gives up. He’s done this for a year and a half now.
- Kody’s eyes are usually glossy, like he’s about to cry. It’s ironic because he hasn’t cried since the 5th grade.
- Huxley has cut his hair into bangs before, never again.
- When Lasko sneezes, it evolves into a series of annoying tiny sneezes that leaves his nose red.
- Damien would rather die than use Airpods.
- Xavier has always wanted a BIG dog, but never got the chance to get one.
- Caelum has his own section in Freelancer’s dorm where he can play and sleep.
- Gavin heard what happened to Avior when he tried to rift back to Aria and said “And people ask me why I don’t rift back home anymore”.
- Gavin has called Avior a “dickrider” before.
- Freelancer is FASCINATED by Vampires.
- Lasko owns a robe that reaches past his feet.
- Huxley belly flops onto pools for fun.
- Damien hates tanning.
- When Caelum heard about the Nintendo EShop shutting down, he begged and cried for Freelancer to hack his 3DS since Gavin and Delphinus had no idea how to. Freelancer had to look up how to do it, and spent the night doing it, but it was easier than they thought.
- Kody randomly walks around his house in jeans and flip flops while being shirtless.
- Gavin believed in the “Talking Angela is stalking you” theory.
- Lasko refuses to download Twitter.
- Freelancer developed their powers in the 6th grade when someone was picking on them, and hid them from their family for 4 years in fear of what they could do with them. Their parent(s) found out after they froze their room while having a breakdown via stress.
- Huxley played spin the bottle at a party with his friends a few years ago, and when the bottle landed on Xavier, they immediately began kissing with no question, hesitation, or awkwardness.
- Caelum hates Baby Shark.
- Lasko has a sleep mask, a bed that regulates temperature, 7 pillows, and a surround sound system that plays rain sounds at night.
- When Damien first came into his room, he was appalled at how comfortable it looked.
- Caelum makes hot cocoa and then puts it in the fridge to cool down.
- Huxley’s moms owns 3 cats. One rarely moves, and the other two are menaces.

I love to see how Damian keeps showing he is a responsable and caring with kids. Looks like he learned to balance being a hero and taking care of a child meanwhile Jon still has trouble with both. Damien saw his focus more on his job and decide to do it better kind of how Dick showed him. I would love to have your head canons of Damian as a father.
ooo ask. these are one of fav headcanons of mine. and father? no, damian is absolutely the mother.
damian pulling memories and experiences he learnt from talia that at the time provided him warmth and comfort is so incredibly special to me.
i also feel like it heals the idea in his head(i even headcanoned before knowing this) that he thinks children would be near impossible for him because of the life he lives. if anything he’d want to give that child as much love as can bleed out of himself and show them a traditional happy life and without that… he thinks it’s hopeless. i feel like his relationship with trinity could be healing that. he’s even said this before
Tumblr media
i feel dick perhaps could come over to see if the kid is still breathing but he’d be pleasantly surprised to find that trinity is very happy and healthy.
damian would adopt the mother hen traits a little too easily than he’s willing to admit and he’d be entirely fine with that
jon’s childhood (as short as it was) could even be somewhat lived through trinity, not in a possessive and overbearing way but in a passive and healing way
jon could be pulled in one direction but his duty as a hero but that could also make him understand why his dad was gone so often for him - often at times feeling neglected - him finding a new found respect for clark
jon has flight and super speed nearing that of speedsters and his absence is not exactly easily excusable and damian will remind him of that relentlessly
jon and dami might fight but they’re just so happy to be with one another as usual
jon really admires how dami stepped into the role though its not easy for him
just the idea of dami taking care of trinity and jon taking care of dami is so freaking cute
jon really wants to be around the two as much as he can, he even calls off the legion or young justice, etc if they don’t have a good enough reason to waste quality time
“mission? nope, im busy tonight” and he hangs up just to watch some animated movie theyve seen twenty times because trinity is obsessed with it
they bicker like an old married couple but its almost a show of how much they really care for trinity
while jon is out he is always thinking about what to get for trinity as trade for his absence, toys, candy, foods… he’ll go all the way to thailand to get thai food or china for chinese food the traditional way and not tell the either of them of the hurdles he went through to get it
trinity doesn’t even notice that jon may be absent no where near as much as jon is drilling it into his own head. the kid has no idea how good she has it
jon’s definitely the type to be like “why does it matter how much it cost?” because the smiles on their faces pay him back in full
when nights get silent they almost forget their not home
thank you for the ask. i had fun talking about this. domestic damijon is so special to me

Icewild (Part 3)
"Hey man. Yer butt flap is down."
"What?!" Taishen reaches back to feel, his golden scales turning bright molten orange as he blushes. "So indecent! Thank you for telling me! Would you like me to check your backside?"
"Nah, if mines down its just a nice fuckin' view." Gideon chuckles deeply and puffs his cigar. "Not to brag or anythin'."
"Well... alright." Taishen peeks anyway, because even if Damien ashamed there are possibly still ghosts down here who might not want to see any bare behinds. Gideon is buttoned up fine, though the overalls are clearly too small for him. Taishen would feel bad for him about that if the man's regular clothes seemed like they fit, but they also seemed a bit small.
Maybe he does that on purpose. Why he would, Taishen doesn't know. It seems very uncomfortable.
"Well, uh, let''s see. I've never really handled plumbing before..."
"Then why the hell'd you offer to check it out?"
"Well, I figured if it's just frozen I could melt it." Taishen produces a gorgeous flame in his palm, a delicate and refined dancing flame that, though it may be the same as what he uses in battle, is more settled in this peaceful context.
"Oh-ho yeah. I can help with that." Gideon grins, his beard sparking and crackling like the beginnings of a wildfire. Taishen's flame is reflected in Gideon's eyes, but the reflection seems wilder, raging, all-consuming.
"Um... well." Taishen holds his hand out in front of him to light their way. "How-how did you unlock your powers, then?"
"Fuckin' born with 'em, man."
"Oh! You didn't have an grand adventures, or... meetings with great beings?"
"I mean... my Pa was a pretty great guy."
"Oh! So you get if from him?"
"Nah, Pa was human."
"... I'm not sure we're getting anywhere with this."
"Well, why're ya askin'? Weren't you born with yours?"
"Not exactly. My niece went missing, and while searching for her I met a great ancient dragon, who awoke the powers within me."
"... Pretty fuckin' cool backstory." Gideon nods. "Hey, quick question. Does your niece bite you?"
"Not since she was a baby, I raised her not to do such things!"
"Wait, you raised her?"
"Well, yes-"
"Geez, man, you outta talk with Gricko later! Couple a single dads, he'd fuckin' love that. Unless you're not single, then maybe it wouldn't be as fun for 'im."
"Well, I am single, but I don't see how that matters."
"Matters 'cause he is too."
"I don't know if we'll really have much to talk about anyway. His... daughter, seems... seem to be a different situation."
"How?"
"Well... she's an owlbear."
"And? All kinds of different fuckin' people in the world, man."
"No, that's not what I meant-"
"Guess I found out why you're single."
"I- well it's mostly because I'm exploring the world and trying not to freeze to death-"
"And how do you keep warm to not freeze to death? Having some fun, if you know what I mean, heh-heh." Gideon elbows Taishen, knocking him into the wall of the waterways by accident. Taishen gives a little shout and rights himself, used to such things from Barnabos but still caught off guards thanks to the current subject matter.
"It's really just not the time or place for that kind of thing!" Taishen gestures around them. "My life recently has been very much a life-or-death situation!"
"And?"
"And-! And so it's just not the time for that sort of thing!"
"... We're on different fuckin' pages, man. I sleep with people in the middle of major situations all the fuckin' time."
"And that's very disturbing to know, please do not tell me these things!" Taishen prays they're close to the opening to the cave. "I spent years raising my niece, and now I'm trying to survive long enough to get back to her!"
"Alright, alright, I get it." They walk in silence for a little while.
"... But just so you know, ladies love the fire tricks." Gideon takes a swig from his flask, swishes it around, tilts his head up, and spits out a fountain of fire! The whole corridor lights up, and Taishen shouts as he ducks out of the way.
"Goodness!"
"Fuckin' cool, right?" Gideon hands the flask over. "Try it, man! Just light it in your mouth and spit it real quick!"
"Spitting it seems a little gross."
"It's fire. Fire can't be dirty."
"Well, that does make sense..."
"Yeah, man!"
"Should you step out of the way? Can you be burned?"
"Eh, barely."
"Alright then..."
Taishen takes a tentative drink.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Queenie sits on Jornir's shoulder. "Why're we watchin' this guy again?"
Torbek, but a few feet away, sits chewing on a rock. Frost uses his mind hand to remove the rock, and Torbek makes a sad noise. Frost gives Torbek a piece of soft wood, which Torbek also begins to gnaw on.
"His state... concerns me."
"Ha, no shit." Skrimm sits nearby, swirling a bottle of brandy. "That guy's life seems fucked, and that's comin' from me." He takes a big drink.
"Skrimm, didn't you say you can do that thing where you look in souls or somethin'?" Queenie sighs, leaning against Jornir's head. "I don't think he's very malicious."
"Oh, look at that! Finally someone asks about my powers!" Skrimm looks at Torbek. "I'll try it, but if I had to bet I'd bet all I'll get is sad."
Skrimm focuses on Torbek and, like how he can summon the Brutal Blade with the mere flick of a wrist, flicks something in his mind or soul to see in Torbek's.
After a moment Skrimm hears, whispered in the back of his mind and drifting to the forefront, the word content.
"He's just relaxing." Skrimm shrugs, leaning back again. "He's content. Guess the guy has some pretty low standards." Skrimm takes another drink of his cheap brandy and a bite of some definitely-gone-off cheese.
Jornir eyes Skrimm, but doesn't say anything.
Queenie hops off of Jornir's back. "Well in that case, I'm gonna go make him feel a little more welcome. Jornir's been glarin' at him all day."
"I am not glaring. I am just... looking."
"You've been glarin', Jornir, ya wear you're heart on your sleeve sometimes."
"... I do?" Jornir looks at Skrimm, who makes an exaggerated face of confusion and shrugs.
Queenie hops away without another word, right up to Torbek. Torbek startles a little when she does.
"Ah! Did Torbek do something wrong?! Torbek is only chewing on what Frost says he can chew on!"
"Why're you chewin' on anythin', honey?"
"Mmmm, Torbek is bored."
"So yer chewin' on rocks?"
"Torbek chews on rocks often."
"Well, how about we find you a game or somethin' instead, how's that sound?"
Torbek lights right up! "Torbek loves games! He helped Mr. Kremy rig them all the time!"
"Torbek!" Kremy hisses.
"He did though, Kremy," Gricko chimes in.
"We're not talkin' about the carnival with folks who didn't work the carnival!"
"Sorry, Mr. Kremy." Torbek shrinks down a bit.
"Hey, don't you be snappin' at him!" Queenie snaps back.
"Excuse you, he's my em- I mean, my friend!"
"Oooooh, Torbek doesn't want more fighting!" Torbek covers his ears. "Torbek wants to play that game, pleaseeee, Torbek will never ask for anything else!"
"Alright, alright." Queenie glares ar Kremy again while she takes Torbek's hand and leads him away. "There's some snow just over there at the edge of the clearin', you ever made a snow angel before?"
"Noooo."
"Well neither have I, but I heard they're real fun so let's try it out."
Queenie and Torbek head off, and Kremy keeps an eye on them until they're out of sight. "Gotta bad feelin' about that, fellas."
"Oh, what's the worst that could happen, Kremy?" Gricko says. "In fact, Hootsie! Why don't we go join them, ah, ah? Alright let's go!" Gricko and Hootsie race off.
"It seems like a bad idea to me as vell."
Kremy and Frost both scream and jump up, Frost's fur standing on end and Kremy's shadow wiggling like a snake in a trap.
"I am Ketrothstein, but ah, you may call me Ket." He nods at them. "And I am also stuck in this vorld vhere I do not belong, as I have heard you are, and I thinkve should vork together to all return to our homes."

He's grateful that he can share so much with you and that you feel comfortable enough to do the same with him. And, he loves the fact that you two are so similar. It's what started your friendship in the first place.
At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is that you're both safe, happy, and protected. Deep down, he's so immensely grateful he's not the only one keeping things together.

im kinda curious about what is your comment about Damien and Rakiel's first meeting in the arena. like. the tension is....something.
it most certainly is
like. what is this.
Tumblr media
was it really necessary to have rakiel compare seeing damian in person to experiencing love for the first time? like?? surely they could've gone with something else??? like reading about a place and then seeing for yourself??? or a extreme experience like free-falling or going on a rollercoaster and then experiencing it first hand???? as it is this conveys the feeling perfectly but damn does it sound a bit romantic lol
and then there's the actual conversation where we actually get a feel for damian for the first time and it's. rough. he's been hurt for so long that he doesn't really trust anyone and he's wary of strangers, especially someone like rakiel that offers treatment for his pain, something that many before had lied about.
but there's this line when rakiel is trying to get damian to trust him enough to begin his treatment that i think kinda encapsulates the role rakiel will play in damian's life from then on
Tumblr media
it's the,,, appealing to what little remains of damian's trust in people that gets to me. rakiel knows better than anyone what damian has and will go through, he knows the pain he's in and the abuse he's had to endure, hell he even outright says that it's almost certain damian has PTSD. but he also knows that if damian can't bring himself to trust him he will go through even worse so he appeals to the very, very small part of damian that is still hesitantly willing to trust in the word of someone he doesn't know.
and damian does. warily, hesitantly, with the promise to himself to make rakiel understand real pain if he's lying to him but he does. and it pays off. for the first time in a very long time damian gets to experience true relief from the pain that crippled him enough to make him addicted to painkillers.
and it's just,,,, characters experiencing kindness for the first time in a long time just get to me okay???
and like this?? it's really the beginning of what will eventually evolve to damian trusting rakiel unconditionally. damian comes from a place that would absolutely justify it if he never trusts anyone else in his entire life, but rakiel appealing to the tiny, hurt part of him that wants to rely on someone else gives him the opportunity to have a relationship that allows him to put his complete trust in someone and not be let down by them.
which is a good thing later on when it turns out damian can't really trust most of what he thought were his memories and,,, general existence because now he has rakiel. now he has someone he trusts implicitly and without doubt. someone he knows is trying to help and has never let him down before. someone he can guide himself by when nothing else around him feels truly real.
and then there's the reaction of damian once rakiel treats him and it turns out he was telling the truth which is??? kinda of really cute???
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i don't know!! i just think it's kinda of really cute how quickly he softens up to rakiel even if it's in a small way! he's been very standoffish with rakiel the entire conversation, with good reason, but then the moment rakiel proves that he wasn't lying to him and was genuinely trying to help, he starts being more polite and wanting to know his name, not even getting mad when he thinks he's being given a fake one just asking him to please tell him his real one when they meet again.
and it's like,,, you have this person who has been, to quote, 'forsaken by the world' and he's wary and paranoid and rightfully distrusting of the people around him,,, and then he experiences genuine help from someone, not even someone he thinks is doing out of the kindness of his heart, just someone he believes is working for the same people as him and is doing his job, and he just,,, does a complete 180º in attitude. just one act of helpfulness and damian goes from thinking about breaking rakiel's arms if he's lying to him to being polite and respectful and wanting to know more about him.
and while i wouldn't go as far as to say damian got attached to him for that one moment, i do think it's very telling that for all the hurt he went through he still didn't close off completely from people in general. like. a small part of him still wanted to have someone to trust and maybe even befriend, which i think shows in the way he treats rakiel after getting treated.
so like. maybe it wasn't an instant connection. but you can see the seeds being planted of what their relationship will eventually be.
i don't know! i just think they're neat :3

OK SO I'VE WATCHED EPISODES 7 AND 8 OF SEASON 2 OF TOTAL DRAMA 2023
SPOILERS UNDER THE CUT AS ALWAYS!!!
So we got our first big gen 1 cameo! That and official canonisation of Owen's win! It was one of the season wins that had a clear better winner but a confirmation is nice! I feel like it fucks the timeline up since they just. reused Owen's design from TDI again. Im not looking into it
The challenges were really fun! I liked how the cooking challenge wasn't all athletisism, and while they've already done a human pinball challenge back in WT, this one was different enough that i didn't care all that much.
I think Damien is the most 6/10 contestant so far? Like he's nice and stuff but he doesn't grab me. Maybe the immunity idol thing can make him more interesting to me? Hope they do something with that! Oh, and Wayne or Raj are SOOOO getting the boot soon. They don't have much to do outside of comic relief and they're not invested in the current drama. Personally i'd prefer if Wayne got the boot over Raj? That or they don't get booted one episode after another. I want interesting conflict damnit!
ok fine i'll get it out of the way: i DONT care for Priyaleb. Like WOW THEY'RE PREDICTABLE. MOVE OUT OF THE WAY ZOKE, PRIYALEB IS THE NEW STANDARD FOR "STRAIGHT SHIP FOR STRAIGHT PEOPLE"! (no hate to either ships, i just. deeply don't care for them and wished their screentime were used on characters that didn't. you know. win the previous season)
the plotline was boring as hell and Zee getting axed because of it SUCKS. Caleb would've gotten the boot if he didn't have plot armor. Like give him immunity if you wanna kick Zee out so bad!!!!
transitionning to the eliminations, Ripaxel getting double elim because "haha gross ass couple" was predictable. I litterally called it twice in a row, they were gonna get eliminated for it and they did! I do think they were great and Ripaxel has legit won me over, sorry, i love Ripper being a gross idiot and Axel liking him for it. They were funny.
As said earlier, Zee getting the boot fucking sucks man,,, i loved him :''(
ON A GOOD NOTE THO! MKULIA IS STILL IN THE GAME! I SWEAR TO GOD IF THEY DONT KISS BEFORE THE END OF THE SEASON WE'RE GONNA RIOT!!! EVIL LESBIANS <333
My predictions are, well, the same as last time's. Wayne/Raj getting the boot next, MKulia being real, Scary Girl coming back, the same as two weeks ago lmaoo
episode 7 was def the better out of the two tho

One thing I love about them in the don’t win Mario live is how every time angela jokes about zoning out to Damien, she goes out of her way to lean down and whisper an apology to him. Idk why but it seems like she just has a soft spot for Damien that she doesn’t really have for anyone else. If it was Shayne that she made that comment to, she most likely wouldn’t have apologized or if she did, she would just say “sorry bro” or something like that lol.
I've noticed that too! she kinda does that for everybody, whispers to them asking if she's bothering them, if anything she seems more COMFORTABLE to be able to do that! I feel it would be awkward for her to do that to Shayne, but with Damien she's comfortable enough with him to. but with Damien he seems to appreciate it alot! he has said he is neurospicy (im a lil aswell i suspect) so having someone that genuinely CARES if they hurt you means the world! I like it even more, now that they're both comfortable making fun of one another. personally as someone suspected of having adhd AND autism (I'm just human after all) when I like someone (in a friend way) I like to poke them! I like shit talk! it makes me feel ALIVE. Angela has shared pretty much the same sentiment and so has Damien!
they both do do their best to check in on eachother through the insults they hurl. its obvious they like to play ruff lol
and for me its really fun to have someone like Angela with Damien on the cast! I've been watching him since he joined, and there's never really been someone he gets to hurl insults at and they hurl them right back! and still be friends after! I really feel like she's helping him get out of his shell! its so sweet!!
so to wrap up, I agree! I think Angela does have a not-so-soft-but-more-comfortable-spot for Damien. while Damien DEFINITELY has a soft spot for Angela. he rarely gets mad at her for being too much (she can get pretty loud) and always treats her very well offering to pay for things and and boosting her up
anyway, I love these people. they make me feel less alone <3

puppy love | tanjirou x male! reader
Tumblr media
word count: 1.1k
just a completely unexpected tanjirou crush headcanon list! :D
warnings: none! pure fluff :3 (i refuse to make anything remotely sad (unless asked) (then i'll do it) (unwillingy))
tanjirou is a minor so please do not comment weird stuff under this!
i wasn't gonna write this and just ramble all this to a friend but i was like "why am i gonna torture them" /lh i love you damien
anyways i am only on s1 e15 so this might not be canon compliant to the manga or to swordsmith village or to season 2 and happens before all of that sadness
but anywho, please enjoy this and happy reading! :D all of this was very rushed bc of how fast i wanted to write this so sorry if its bad lol
don't forget to check out my ask box! <3 ask box rules are in my pinned post! requests are slow right now but i am more than happy to just chat!
Tumblr media
tanjiro is obviously a really determined kid, nothing really gets in the way of his journey or protecting his friends and nezuko
but i like to think that he has plenty of lovey dovey fantasies, sleeping beauty and cinderella type of thing where he thinks everyone is destined for love and that if you wish for it enough, it will come to you
but he can also be very oblivious so as much as he believes in soulmates, you would have to slap him across the face (though why would you do that?) for him to realize he was looking at the future love of his life
he's still a kid so the idea of love is very innocent to him and thats why i love him <3 but he can't really tell anyone about all of his daydreaming because zenitsu would give him a hard time and inosuke would laugh in his face
but tanjirou most definitely can't stop for too long in the places where he's assigned missions in (he wants to explore, he's naturally curious like that!) so in turn, he doesn't really have the time to fall in love or even have a crush
maybe one day he stops in a city or town, there's a festival going on and he's trying to get past all the crowds of people to get out of the city and get to his next mission
and maybe it's the cliche of you running away from someone (probably a bully) and you run into tanjirou and immediately scramble to hide behind him and beg him to help you, you'll do anything!
so now he has no choice but to give you a hand (he'd think about it for days if he didn't) and once he convinces the person to leave, you're on your hands and knees thanking him as he tries to reassure that it was his pleasure
"let me buy you a meal! it's the least i can do!" you say with a grateful smile; you don't give tanjiro time to respond as you take his hand and lead him to some food stands just a few feet away
from there, you treat tanjirou to more than just a meal, but snacks and even some local activities (im not japanese guys but i know there are plenty of super fun stuff to do)
once you actually look at him, you feel grateful that you stopped him when you did: his kind smile had you pleasantly staring at him, the way he would fluster so easily when you would compliment him, and just how overall nice he was for seemingly no reason
by the time you knew it, the streets were becoming quieter and less crowded and the night was cooling down but neither you or tanjirou had tried to stop talking
"oh, are you cold? here, you can take my haori." tanjirou says with a smile; how he had noticed the way you rubbed your hands over your arms made you flush a bit and even more so when he places the haori over your shoulders
it was warm with a soft scent you couldn't recognize on it but it wasn't necessarily unwelcome. a smile stretches onto your face before you look up at him; "aren't I supposed to be treating YOU? you must be hard to date, tanjirou." you tease, wrapping the haori over yourself a bit more as you nudge his arm
"ah, i couldn't let you spoil me like that, that would be selfish of me. i'm just as happy seeing you comfortable." he says with what you were learning was a signature smile
at that, you stop walking as a small laugh bubbles out of you which in turn makes tanjirou stop, a confused smile on his face as he looks at you; "what's so funny? did i say something?" he says as you start to step toward him
"nothing. you're just unreal, tanjirou. just perfect." you say, biting your lip to hide the growing smile on your face when you see a slight red on his cheeks now
of course, he immediately turns away and offers to walk you home, making up the excuse that he had somewhere to be the next morning; "not that i don't want to hang out, but it's pretty late! i don't think we should be out for much longer." tanjirou says when you tease him about wanting to get rid of you
once at your door, tanjirou bids you a good night but doesn't ask for his haori or move away: just stands there and looks around as you shift on your feet
"is the haori keeping you warm? it always helps me." "yes, thank you."
silence again until tanjirou clears his throat, the way red starts crawling up his neck making you tilt your head with a smile on your face
"if you're going to ask for my hand in marriage, tanjirou kamado, the answer is we are teenagers." you say, laughing when tanjirou's face turns a bright red before he starts to ramble about how those weren't his intentions
you finally get him to calm down, hand touching his arm as you squeeze it; tanjirou stands a little bit straigher when you do that, averting his eyes to the ground and mumbling an apology for losing his temper
"i need to go. but come and find me if you pass through here again. i'd be more than happy to treat you again." you say, earning a smile from tanjirou before, all in one motion, you take a step forward and kiss him on the cheek, disappearing into your home
tanjirou stands in shock with his hands hanging uselessly in the air before he realizes: he never got his haori back. he'd have to come back tomorrow. and get it. and see you.
mumbling to himself, he walks away from where you had just left him, cupping his cheek as a gentle smile starts to grow on his face
alerted by the noise and movement (and the fact that it was very late at night), nezuko pokes her head out of her box and looks to her brother who perks up at his sister's presence
"sorry about all the noise! we'll go somewhere quieter soon." tanjirou says, smiling at his sister before he stops to let her leave the box
she looks towards the spot where she had felt the presence of another person before looking at tanjirou, pointing towards the house; her brother's face flushes a bit as he looks everywhere but at her, waving her off with a nervous smile
"ah, i just...made a friend is all, don't worry about it! we should go now!" tanjirou says with a smile on his face as he takes nezuko's hand and starts to lead her away, already planning the next day with you; and totally only to get his haori back
(<`▽´)―━━☆⌒*. bang, bang, thats the end!
so can you guess who my favorite demon slayer character is other than rengoku and mitsuri
in all seriousness, i love this show so far, such a good story and super cute characters (except for muzan, i hate that guy but i want him so bad) but i have yet to read the manga so bear with me here!
but for now, thanks for reading and to anyone who is starting spring break soon, have a safe and fun week of break, you deserve it! :D and to everyone else, good morning, good afternoon, or good night! <33

i completely forgot to do this omg only now remembered
so uhh, prepare for a lot of talk about The Exorcist. because i took notes. ill talk about shit in the order it happens in the movie. and yeah spoilers.
so first, the part that's in Iraq. i liked the quiet, very comforting. im very confused what's wrong with the old guy. he looks like a walking cane would help him a lot. more than the molly or whatever pills he takes. and also i was so confused why that statue mattered at all.
mom checks up on Reagan: "wind cannot be that cold in like usa the fuck you shivering for",, in hindsight, there's another reason for it to be so cold.
the film set: "damien karras spotted!!" @weirdlildude you have conditioned me to get excited whenever i see him. otherwise, "what the hells going on", i was so confused the whole time, mainly because i didnt know if the protest was real, or if everyone was actors. it was just very confusing. and when damien walks away: "sad pathetic man!!"
mom, Chris, is walking home: "ace attourney ass music" and "why'd she pay attention to that??" when she stops and watches the priests talking.
"what is with this movie and the sound design", just a general statement. the movie likes to contrast thick silences with really loud sounds.
Karras visits his mother: "pathetic man caught lying to his mother!!", when he says he's alright.
Chris and Reagan hang out: "girlypop ive got a chronic case of parent issues"
the other priest checks up on Karras: "losing faith? *eyebrow raise*"
Chris goes up to the attic to check the noise: "omg im like so bored", legit nothing was happening, was getting very bored. also i didnt write this in my notes, but Chris has a horrid haircut. its like a bowlcut but worse.
priest does stuff in the church: "do priests legit need to kneel everytime they approach the altar. doesnt that get like really tiring geez" and when the priest discovers the vandalised statue: "LMAOOO JGGIDJAGHJAFD FUCK YEAH"
Reagan's first doctors visit: "omg words that should never come out of a mothers mouth number 1 "my daughters not depressed" "
the director gets drunk at Chris' party and calls that one dude a nazi: "LMAOF "whats for dessert?😏" "
Karras has a dream: "doggy:)"
Reagan's second hospital visit: "oh god i hate horror stuff that takes place in a hospital", and "oh god i hate this why's she awake during this"
Karras is running on the track: "he's a runner he's a track star", when he's talking with the detective and leans on the chain fence "i want him to kabedon me like that", and when the conversation ends "tbh i did not fully understand that conversation but understanding that father karras is a little shit is enough"
Chris and Reagan return home and the detective is watching them: "this fucking creep ass detective", Chris and him start talking "i fucking hate this guy omg shut up", they talk more "this guy is so rude omg"
Chris hears Reagan scream and goes to check on her: "is uhh,, is this movie like pure horror? like that wasnt supposed to be comedic?". this is where i started to really be confused about the genre of the movie. like, i started to realise that it was not inciting any horror from me, and barely even like, anxiousness. like i did care for the characters, but its hard to really feel scared for them when the demon threatening them is chanting "let jesus fuck you", and puking constantly.
Chris goes to ask Karras for an exorcism: "why is the church so progressive in this??" like legit you're telling me the catholic church doesn't believe in posession, because science has advanced to explain the symptoms. that sounds like bullshit to me. in 1973? you're just lying.
Chris is desperate to help her daughter: "dude my parent issues be hitting hard"
Karras throws tap water onto Reagan: "i dont get it like. why did it react to the water?", i just dont get it. the movie doesn't really care to explain it. cuz i thought that the demon actually wouldn't be real because of that. or did Karras unintentionally bless the water by saying its holy? idk
when Karras and the older priest take a break from exorcising, and the old priest walks off: "is he gonna kill her. also am i supposed to understand what the pills he's taking are?". genuinely i have no fucking idea what the pills are that this old guy keeps taking, like they could just be breath mints for all i know.
Karras is sitting downstairs in the hall: "sorry he's so hot jeezums"
Karras is resolved to not let the demon kill Reagan: "oh shit karras be fighting FOR THIS GIRLS LIFE"
Chris opens the door to the detective: "OH MY GOD FUCKING GO AWAY YOU DETECTIVE"
Karras, uhm,, takes a leap of faith: "I FORGOT THAT THIS HAPPENS I KNEW THIS AND STILL DEAR GOD NOOOOO",
"BUT ALSO KINDA COOL OF HIM TO DO THAT", it was kinda hot that he sacrificed himself, though he was probably just looking for a reason after his mom died.
Chris and Reagan talk to that one priest that knew Karras: "oh like she(Reagan)'s thanking karras for saving her? she recognised the collar and felt compelled to thank him?", wondering why Reagan gave a kiss to the priest.
this whole ending scene tbh: "jesus its so quiet again", this movie really likes its quiet silences.
detective talks to dyer: "LMAOOOOO"
credits: "DAMN I ACTUALLY REALLY LIKE THE SOUND TRACK??", "lmao warner bros should add a "the exorcist" attraction into the universal studios park"
anywayy yeah its a fun movie, though i feel the need to read the book now to understand it fully ya know? feels like im missing something... also i know that it got popular cuz its so like "provocative" and stuff, but in this age i dont really get the hype. i guess it is still worth appreciating for furthering the art of film ya know.

PINNED UPDATED FINALLY
Hey! I'm Spooky! I'm 25 years old, and use she/they pronouns.
I've had this blog for a very long time but it's been very on and off being used, And yet I keep coming back 👉👉
This blog is my vibing place for my self shipping! This can go anywhere from just reblogging my blorbos, to me actually making stuff! Mainly art and writing!
This blog is 18+ only. No minors. I like to keep all my content for this on one blog so that includes more sinful content. Though it will be tagged accordingly if you don't wanna see it! (Tags at bottom!)
I tend to switch around a lot to different fandoms and interests. It's rare I'll stop liking a fandom or character though. I have many Blorbos and the number only grows uwu
I have a lot of mental health stuff going and self shipping is a big coping mechanism for me. ✌️
I'm a system! I don't really plan to talk about it much on this blog, but on the off chance it comes up I'll say it ™️
I have two amazing partners, @calamari-minecraft-corner and @angelover44 . ❤️
My main is @spooookyqueen, I follow from there!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm not gonna do a full DNI this time cause I don't have the braincells, and people don't always respect them anyway, but I will set a few ground rules.
Obviously any basic DNI stuff would apply.
I wanna keep discourse of any kind off here for the most part, it stresses me out and if im gonna talk about that sort of thing it would be on my main and not my self shipping blog.
For the most part everyone is welcome here, just don't be an ass or just straight up make me or anyone uncomfortable.
I do on occasion post darker topics here, especially given I like a lot of evil or fake characters. I don't not support anything of the sort irl. This obviously does not include the obvious no-nos.
Anything with dark content will be tagged accordingly. If anyone needs me to add more tags I will gladly do so. And if I forget, please don't hesitate to let me know. (Just don't be rude about it)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I can't promise any form of logic for when I post and what I post. My ADHD makes me a bit all over sometimes so there's no schedule or anything. Sometimes I might not post for a long time, it's really just up to what I see, feel up to.
Asks are always open! Just don't be rude or disrespectful is all I ask. I am just vibing here after all.
I'm not above blocking if y'all can't behave though.
I have many silly aus and such. Sometimes crossovers. What one with a small brain might call "cringe"
Jokes on your cringe culture is dead though and I killed it 💜
FR tho, Were all just having fun here 👉👉
Also sorry for any spelling/grammar issues on here or on any other post of mine, I struggle a lot sometimes with my ADHD since my brain tends to be faster than my hands. And if I don't type quick enough I tend to lose my thoughts
Main Tags I use below, Will add F/O Tags as I go ✌️
General Tags
#Cala my beloved Posts involving @calamari-minecraft-corner
#Katlyn my beloved Posts involved @angelover44
#Suggestive Not quite going into sexual territory but the implication is there
#Sinful Mature content, namely the sexual sort

a few redacted piercing hcs
im like sooo tired rn so these are very unorganized feeling + i will make a more cohesive post tomorrow or something with more of the dudes but for now my thoughts must be shared.
these are organized in order from most to least me just projecting so bear with it
CW for body modification described in pretty heavyish detail + mention of needles of course under the cut
Darlin
darlin has 1738292933 piercings like just trust me
they have 2 professionally done from when they were like a baby but the rest they did by hand
as i've stated before they've given sam a couple of ear piercings
like the amount of trust you need to have in someone to stick a needle in your ear hello !! holding your vampire boyfriends face in your hands !! they mean a lot to me can you tell.
they've gotten infected a million times before probably but each time are like fuck it we ball !!
they're actually decent at piercing now though. they've got the routine down and can name the technical term for like every piercing imaginable
Lasko
3 total. 2 lobe + 1 helix
lasko love of my life did his helix himself but like. horribly. it was shortly after he left his parents place so idk he was running off adrenaline a little
he is not a super adventurous man but he was having a moment and figured it couldn’t hurt That bad.
tried to do it with a sewing needle in his bathroom mirror
it did infact hurt that bad. bro had to stop halfway through to take a breather like helix piercings hurt so bad if you’re doing it on ur own especially if you don't kno wtf you're doing
he powered through it though and im so proud of him
ASHER OMG
11 total
5 lobe 3 helix 1 industrial
he’s also a self proclaimed expert piercer
except his pain tolerance in Low. six feet under the ground. he is in agony every single time but is like Fuck it we ball !!!!!
he is a LIAR though and tells everyone it’s like Super easy and quick to do
david knows the truth though.
asher’s first time piercing his ears was in david’s bedroom when they were teenagers
bro had a sewing needle a block of ice and the feeling of pure spite
towards what idk he had an emo phase he was having a moment like lasko🤷‍♂️
david probably incessantly told him to Not to do it because its “stupid” and “going to get insanely infected” but at some point gave up and just watched as asher attempted to stab himself in the ear as he sat criss cossed infront of davids bedroom mirror
they had radio head playing in the background because the image made me giggle.
asher ended up chickening out with the needle halfway through his ear because it hurt
david had to do it the rest of the way for him like the ally to the trans community he is 🙏
and OH MY GOD i saw these earrings at niles months ago that were like little red circles about a centimeter wide with silver paw prints on them
he wears those.
ACK damien my love
i feel like he got an industrial piercing at some point
actually you know what he actually had a shit ton of ear piercings
day to day though he takes them out all you see are a ring of little holes in his ear because they kept getting caught on his clothes + he wears glasses and he hates how it feels when the click against things
he keeps them in at night through and will wear them for special occasions
ok these get less detailed from here on out
elliot : left eyebrow piercing + gauged ears
guy : ok this is based off some like fanart i saw of him that i actually can’t find now that im looking for it but i think he has a double eyebrow piercing (whoever has made fanart of him like that im kissing u on the face ur like sooo real for that one bro.)
vincent : SNAKE BITES. also like small gauges
milo : i think !! he has a septum im not sure though
ok im like atually way to tired to continue i just really like body modification have i made that clear enough.

hope this isn’t pestering, but mayhaps a bit of commentary on chapter 3 of raised by wolves? Whichever bit you want really. I’ve reread it like twenty times I cannot get it out of my head, would love to hear some of your thoughts!
not pestering never pestering even if i take a short geological age to respond because i am SO tired and forgetty. owo. raised by WOLVESSSSS
["How are you calm about this?" Arum growls, gesturing towards Damien as if indicating... all of him, perhaps. Which is arguably unkind, though not unfair.]
I'll be honest Damien NOT freaking out about Rilla keeping a secret from him for as long as they've known each other..... i mean, tbh i could see a number of universes where he DID freak out, but again- in those verses, Rilla probably panicked and bailed. not the specific story i wanted to write, lol. Also? Damien isn't really.... """calm""" about this. he's resigned to it, but that's not the same as calm. He's had a number of PRIVATE but SCREAMING breakdowns about this and held himself together for the sake of not causing Rilla to bolt.
because this particular Rilla is extremely prone to bolting, freezing up, and blocking people out. safety first, when your secrets could get you slain!
["How have you not driven yourself out of your mind for worry about what could be going on behind your back? She could be sick, someone could be blackmailing her, she could be cursed."]
lol she kinda is cursed tho. anyway. poor Arum honestly. he's absolutely freaking out in his own way, too. arum voice YOU must be worried about all these things! they definitely aren't things that IM worried about!!!!! god he's so bad at being vulnerable.
[Damien sighs again, and then he pushes himself to stand from his own seat, moving closer to drop himself onto the cushion beside Arum instead, leaving a hand on the monster's shoulder and ignoring entirely when Arum growls at him.]
Damien has had a lot of time to sit with this. he knows that Arum hasn't. Arum is getting all this tension fresh. Damien is extremely sympathetic to that.
["I am calm about this," Damien says gently, "because the other option I could see, before, was to lose her. I know her," Damien says, ignoring the way that Arum startles.]
Damien is, generally speaking, terrible at holding his anxieties in check, even when the results are disastrous. His exceptions seem to be when he convinces himself of something. This Damien has, out of necessity, convinced himself to pretend like he isn't worried. He's convinced himself that she will tell him, when she's ready (this has not proven true, alas).
["I know that if I tried to push her, if I tried to interrogate her… it would only push her away. And…" Damien feels his jaw tighten, his brow furrowing, and he forces himself back to tranquility as best he can. "Well, my strongest theory for the past few years has been that her… whatever her secret, whatever causes her to hide away, I thought that perhaps it had something to do with her parents and their Exile. I would certainly never wish to press her on that particular matter, it hurts her so to discuss it."]
The thing is: He Isn't Wrong. I haven't revealed MUCH about how Rilla got where she is with the whole lycanthropy thing, but....... yeah. Her parents are a factor.
annnnnnd i've probably rambled enough for now, if there's other sections you want me to talk about just lmk i LOVE rambling 💖💖💖

RANKING TDI GEN 4 CHARACTERS 🏝️
Tumblr media
AXEL: (B) S1, she really didn't leave an impact to me, since she was eliminated early. All she was is a person who believes the zombie apocalypse will happen. But she nice enough to make breakfast for everybody (even tho it was gross). S2, I started to like her more since she tries to be nice and makes friends as possible. It great that she has hobbies of Art 🎨(I will like to see more of that than Zombies since no teenagers talks about Zombies). I honestly didn't expect her and Ripper will happen. It actually cute pair together. But, I didn't like how they were making out a lot in ep 7. But I understand why the writer did it so they can be double eliminated. It feels dirty that she got eliminated bc she a “biggest threat” even tho there Caleb & last season winner, Priya. If there S3 , I want both of them to agreed to focus on the challenge while together. If Ripper is eliminated early, the writer can focus on Axel. I wonder how Axel family will react if she brings Ripper for family dinner. 😆
BOWIE: (B) S1, he alright. I like his friendship with Emma. Wishing they talk more. S2, I like when he giving relationship advice to Ripper and he feels bad for cheating when Raj doesn't like it.
CALEB: (B) S1, Actually surprised he the first person to be eliminated. S2, from the person to be eliminated to a person who actually got to the finals. He alright. He got more role this season. His relationship with Priya is alright. I didn't like when they are fighting again when Caleb ally with Julia, it was nonsense.
CHASE: (D) He a jerk. He delusions and has no remorse for cutting Emma car brakes. I don't know why no one defend Emma when she trying to tell Chase it over.
DAMIEN: (B) One of my favorite characters.
EMMA: (C) S1 is just about her and Chase. She could have simply ignored Chase. And just say no whenever he says something. S2, she finally break up with Chase and hope in S3 it won't be the same as S1
JULIA: (B) Julia & MK friendship came out of nowhere. I won’t be surprised since the writer always write things out of nowhere and it only 13 episodes they can make, so of course they will fast paced.
MILLIE: (C) She was ok.
MK: (C) She was meh in S1. But the writer did good for making me hate both her & Julia. Isn’t it dumb that she exposed herself that people shouldn't underestimate her in a live reality show?? She literally caught stealing! Like how come no contestants aren't threatened by her? Shouldn’t she be arrested? I feel S3 she won't have no purpose since everybody knows she & Julia are cheaters. I won't be surprised she will be the first person to be eliminated. I will like to see 2 new villains taking their places, pretending to be nice as Alejandro did.
NICHELLE: (B) Same as Caleb & Axel. She didn’t left an impact but revealed she doesn’t do her own stunts. S2, I actually thought she will be in the finals. But sadly no. Hollywood should hire her for the hard work she been doing. I like her friendship w/ Damien and hopefully in S3 she will train him.
PRIYA: (B)
RAJ: (B)
RIPPER: (B) S1 he gross. I waited for this guys to be eliminated early. When they hint that his parents are abusive, I felt sorry for him. In S2, I started to like him more. He become a better person this season. Did he realize that girls are strong & wise bc of Priya & Axel? I’m honestly surprised he developed a crush on Axel. This guy has a lot of confidence to win Axel heart. 😆 It so romantic once he found out Axel interest, he wrote a poem just for her. Very Sweet! 💕 Hope these 2 last forever and isn’t written terribly like the other former couples.
SCARY GIRL: (C)
WANYE: (B) Just like Raj, he such a goofball. I’m ok that he S2 winner. ZEE: (A) Also one of my favorite characters! He funny and nice. Im so glad they don’t have to shove down my throat that he disabled, like very dumb woke shows/movies. He just a guy who born as an amputee. Nothing wrong with that! I actually love that a Soda company made him to sponsor their drinks! 😆 Never change Zee!
