Nowhere more comfy to spend the winter than inside your pred buddy am I right? Race, Finch, and Romeo absolutely love spending as much time as they can all tucked away during the colder months, and right now they’re are all just hanging out in their goofy long underwear cause Davey refused to swallow all those heavy winter layers lol Mostly just a cute goofy continuation of this post I made a while ago haha.

#They are comfy and cozy and decidedly not leaving for a while thank you very much #Dave’s insides are warmer than even the coziest bunk in the lodging house so you can bet they’re spending the night there #And I’d wager a few more guys are gonna end up snoozing on top of Davey too #he’s like a giant radiator when he’s all big lol #especially when he’s got a few fellas tucked away #soft vore #safe vore #g/t vore #fandom vore #news¡es vore #arts #returning to my news¡es roots with this one I still adore those guys #very near and dear to my heart everyone go watch this movie right now it’s so cute #the most found family and silly friendships ever

Will you ever make more icp fanart or was that a one of thing? genuinely asking because the one you made was so good and I’d love to see more from you :)

i have a shitload of drawings of them but I don’t post them bc I don’t feel like they’re good enough

#i draw them when im so fucking out of it that i feel like shit #horrible times in general #they’re like my comfort and something I hold so near and dear to my heart #this one is old but it’s nice enough

[sonic-adventure-3]

to me, ideal sonic and shadow relationship is them both thinking “jfc this guy’s a jackass” whenever they exist somewhat in the same vicinity

#‘not you again’ ‘nice to see you too’ is what i hold near and dear to my heart #they’re so funny #rambles #*relationship slash neg to be clear. this is not romantic in the slightest #live and let live or whatever but this isn’t about that

Some ashrym thoughts + feelings from c3e40 before I go to bed:

I talk a lot about how the primary idea/basis/etc. of ashrym is Orym teaching Ashton how to be vulnerable and how to trust people after being burnt so many times, and Ashton teaching Orym how to keep his guard up but also to know that he’s got a steady support system around him and that he’s just as allowed to ask for help as the rest of the party

This episode really solidified that for me. Ashton willingly going to Orym and admitting that they were feeling a little more introspective and vulnerable than usual, and genuinely looking for someone they could confide in and feel safe doing so. This is not the same person we saw 10, 20, 30 episodes ago. This is someone who learnt that it’s okay to be open and honest and just generally wanting to have someone to rely on, and it took them a long time to learn that. Orym helped them learn that. And much like how Ashton learnt from Orym how to be okay with being vulnerable and emotional, Orym is learning that he doesn’t have to be the strong one all of the time. He admitted, point blank, to Ashton that sometimes it’s hard being the party’s “emotionally stable” member, or the one that’s “least likely to snap at other people”. Ashton is teaching him that he doesn’t have to be strong all of the time and that he’s allowed to lean on his party members when he needs the support

The fact that there’s so much these two can learn from each other and they are learning from each other and they will continue to learn from each other. It’s special and it’s wonderful and it’s lovely to watch these two help each other become their best selves as individuals and together

#critical role #critical role spoilers #bells hells #bells hells spoilers #ashrym #okay I’m gonna go crochet until I fall asleep but like. god. so many ashrym thoughts tonight #there’s a lot of personal reasons to me as well as to why ashrym is so near and dear to my heart but I won’t go into that for a while lmao #but I truly love the dynamic btwn ash and Orym. both in the most platonic sense and in the romantic sense that I love oh so much to see #they’re good for each other and that’s what’s important here

The Bastards of Waters

a/n: this is inspired by a fic called watch the world burn by mylordstrong on ao3:)

Summary: Lucerys is bastardized by a king Aemond Targaryen to become Lucerys Waters, who births him bastard sons. Those sons are forced to journey to the Red Keep, away from their beloved mother and homely manse after the King demands them brought to him, as his Stag Queen has only ever birthed him girls in their 15 years of marriage. Luke, humiliated and angry, warns and prepares his children of the dangers they’ll be facing once they step foot within their hateful father’s castle.

a/n 2: uh, luke’s in his “alicent era with a hint of rhaenyra losing her mind era” is all I’m saying for this :)

•._•._•._•._•

•._•._•._•._•

“Keep your brothers in line, Daemon, never let them out of your sight, never let them be alone with anyone in the Keep,” Luke whispers to his eldest, as he clutches the teen’s face harshly. It was the first time Daemon had ever felt pain in his mother’s hold - it was always soft, warm and maternal. He couldn’t blame his faultless mother, he was worried for his children going into unknown and hostile territory after all.

Daemon’s hands shot up to grip his loving mother’s fingers gently, prying them from his face to hold within his own, “I will ensure my brothers never know pain in the Keep, and I promise they’ll be safe and protected as long as I’m still around, mother.”

He can feel his kind mother’s hands shaking, as his eyes stared back into his soft mother’s dark milky hues.

“…All right, I’ll be holding you to that promise,” Luke rasps out, as he frees himself from his son’s tight grip. He cups Daemon’s cheeks, gently this time, with enough warmth he could see his son physically melt in his palms. “Bring you brothers here, I need you all here to tell you of what to expect in that viper’s den.”

“Yes, mother.”

._._._._._.

After getting his brothers into the manse’s main room, all sitting on the sofa, Luke rants and warns his sons of the Red Keep’s dangers.

“You mustn’t be alone nor trust anyone in the Keep, everyone there’s no better than the people in Flea Bottom. They lie, kill, cheat, steal and brag - they will cause you harm and death and suffering. Trusting a person in the Keep, and being vulnerable with any of them is a death sentence in that wretched place,” he starts, pacing back and forth while biting his nails red. “You mustn’t make any mistake, if you do, they will pounce on you for it, humiliate you for it - be as perfect as you can be, and watch and protect each other’s backs. The only ones you can trust in the Keep are yourselves and each other, never forget that.”

Luke can see the fear and hate erupting in the eyes of his children. “Good,” he thought, “that hatred and fear shall keep them alive and protected within the Cursed King’s grasp.”

He knows what he’s doing is wrong, that installing more hate and fear to fester within his own sons might lead to drastic consequences, but he couldn’t careless.

He birthed his sons alone, he taught his sons alone, he entertained his sons alone, he raised his sons alone. If anyone had any problems with how he raised them, full of nothing but spiteful, bitter and frightful contempt for nearly everyone in Westeros - then they should’ve never left him alone to raise his own children as he sees fit.

Luke was quite glad. While he had few friends and loyal followers, he still had allies he knew he could trust.

The many former gold cloaks loyal to his step-father, Daemon Targaryen, trained his sons and vowed to protect both Luke and them - and to join their rebellion when the time comes to fruition. Two of his mother’s handmaidens, who were there for all of her births - and her death - had vowed to ardently stay beside Luke for when the Greens fall, and he or one of his sons takes the throne.

The White Worm - Lady Mysaria - and the whores of Westeros, whom never achieved the peace and equality they were promised by the Black Queen as a result of her death from the traitorous Greens. Nettles, whom seeks revenge for the death of Daemon Targaryen, vows to see the dragon Vhagar and her rider fall in disgrace and dishonor.

Rhaena and Baela, whom quietly gathered allies within the Free Cities, and raised Morning in secrecy away from prying eyes and ears. And the Starks and Arryns, disgraced Houses for their loyalty to the true Queen, Rhaenyra Targaryen, had vowed to see and support Lucerys Waters, the last living son of the rightful heir, sit on the Iron Throne - even if their devotion and fealty were done in secret codes and whispers.

Luke sighs as he halts his rants. Cupping his hands together, he raises them to his face to cover his vicious expression from his beloved sons. Turning his eyes to them, he gently brings his children together, and grips the hands of his youngest, staring in the eyes of all his sons. He finally lets out a final warning in a pale and muted voice; “When the King’s stag wife births the son of the blood of the dragon that he wants, flee as fast and as far away as you can - He will not hesitate to kill all of you, and he will not hesitate to kill me, your mother, either. That man is our family’s ruin and cause of suffering. Do you understand, my loves?”

"That time, when I had gotten separated from Ryuu~-kun and got lost, you took me by the hand and showed me the way, like a fairy from a fairy tale. It’s thanks to you that I was able to return back to the right path. This time, it’s my turn."

w that being said galo and lio r canonically transgender and i would put them in a category w own ocs no problem tho i guess that is also bcuz in a way they kind of feel like my ocs at this point anyway

#like not rly but also they r near n dear to my heart and i Know Them. #just the kinda characters where u see ppl make them cis and ur knee jerk reaction is god cis ppls love of #trans erasure strikes again 🙄 OBVIOUSLY they r transgender men #it is objectively wrong if u think they’re cis so fuck you forever . anyway #it might not be ‘technically’ transphobic . but it is to me

[modernmanblues]

now wait a minute, i read recently that there are rumours of a possible oasis tour this year. if this becomes a reality, i’m gonna lose it. this is making me think back to the days when i was constantly pining for that damn Liam Gallagher. for goodness sake, he was like my Eric Stewart before i even knew about 10cc.

#this is about oasis #more specifically this is about Liam Gallagher #before i became head over heels for 10cc i remember when i couldn’t shut up about oasis #before i went insane for Eric Stewart i remember being on my hands and knees for Liam Gallagher #this is funny bc 10CC is wayy older than oasis yet i somehow never had a clue they existed until just last year #if they have a reunion tour it’ll be like seeing an ex-lover #it’d be like going out for tea with him and going ‘so how are things with you?’ ‘we were so young and stupid in love back then weren’t we?’ #always something special about manchester bands #and they’re very near and dear to my heart #i think more people should support manchester bands

I tried to color code them the best I can bc all these same colored lines gave me a headache but here you go I was bored

(Edit: pretend neprezi is on here please I completely forgot bc of how slim the space is between Nepeta and Terezi)

#honorable mentions that I didn’t feel like putting were tavnep and meenah x aranea #also all Dave and Karkat ships. I really like how those two interact with the characters around them #so just pretend dave and karkat have lines that connect them to all characters that aren’t related to them #also dirkjohn is a guilty pleasure I’m sorruf I really tried hard not liking it in 2017 #but Dirk’s desire to try and act like this misunderstood edgy boy vs john’s straight to the pointness is so funny #also why tavnep is honorable is bc I think they’re just a sweet lil bunch. two characters hussie didn’t give a shit abt and just shoved them #to the useless corner #WAIT ALSO NEPREZI THAT WAS MY FIRST HS SHIP I FORGOT TO PUT IT #they’ll always be near and dear to my heart <3 #I also like vrisrose but only as pitch they’re funny #I’m not too crazy abt dirkjohn tho btw I’m more into johndave and dirtjake tbh
