#and he’s just protective over you

[kingkatsuki]

(You can completely ignore this if it's bad this is my first time ever doing this 😭😭)

Neighbor!Bakugo who's shocked to see a uhaul truck parked outside a house that was previously vacant for months. He's curious to know who brought the house as he pulls into his driveway and tries to peek into the house through the windows. He's quick to notice what looks like kids toys in the front and groans knowing that his peace may be disrupted with a little brat around. He sits in his car waiting to see the couple who now occupies the house and watches as you come out, trekking to the uhaul before lugging another box inside. He furrows his eyebrows seeing your little critter of a son run after you when you come outside again, asking about who knows what before hurrying inside.

'Where's your husband?' He thinks to himself and realizes the more he watches the creepier he's being. So he opts to get out of the car when you're inside hoping to bypass you and your son and relax in his own home.

"Oh, hello!" Crap. He's been caught. Bakugo momentarily considers to keep walking but whisks the thought away as you speak again. "I was wondering when you were gonna come out and introduce yourself," you him and Bakugo's confusion must clearly show on his face as you smile. He thinks you're dumb and fixes his lips to voice that very thought until-

"I saw you when you pulled up." Oh right. He did sit there for a moment watching you unload the uhaul. "I'm y/n. And you are?"

You just keep talking. Haven't you caught the hint yet that Bakugo doesn't like people? That damn smile of yours wouldn't leave your face and had him giving up the tough guy facade. "Bakugo. Katsuki Bakugo," he grumbles.

"Mommy!" Your little kid runs outside again and he notices how much he takes after you. "I can't find my Superman toys! I think they got lost!" He whines, tugging on your shirt.

"Hold on I'm sure I can find it for you okay? Don't worry," you consoled your teary son and Bakugo shook his head watching. Kids were just a distraction in his mind. "Who's this?" Your kid looked up at Bakugo, sizing him up at his small height before stepping in front of you.

"My mommy is not allowed to talk to you," he glares and Bakugo scoffs. The kid's got some nerve to be speaking to him like that. He kneels down to his heught, waving of your apology for his behavior.

"Your dad taught you to say that huh?" He raised his eyebrow and the kid remained the same, glaring at the red eyed male.

"I don't have a dad." Oh. Oh. Now it all makes sense to Bakugo. He hums and ruffles the kids hair before standing up. "That's too bad. They're overrated anyways. All you need is your mom who you should listen to more often," Bakugo raises his eyebrow.

"I know that already!" Your son huffs and runs back inside again. "I'm sorry, he's a bit hard headed," you apologize and he smiles a bit. Reminds him of his younger self.

"It's all good. You've got quite the brat though."

And Bakugo found himself helping you move the rest of your stuff inside, helping with whatever task you needed to do that he deemed "too much" for you. He didn't know it then but that first encounter sparked a feeling in him he stood he'd never feel for both you and your son...

Ahhhh I’m obsessed with this!!! Just move our boxes into your house Bakugou lets spend the rest of our lives together😭

#I dunno why I immediately thought about an abusive ex or like annoying ex and Bakugou comes out of his house at 10pm to shouting and he’s #PISSED!!! like ‘there’s a fuckin’ kid sleeping in there’ like he wasn’t just annoyed at some guy shouting at you #and he’s just protective over you #you catch your son coming over to visit and apologise profusely but Bakugou says it’s okay #I kinda imagine him being so shut off from socialisation because he’s so focused on being number one that he kinda forgot to live??? #so like you remind him to?🥺 #soft bakugou #not mine

i vote that next year instead of reading Dracula we do a Jeeves & Wooster Book Club. those two never got the rabid tumblr shipping fandom they deserved (disqualified for the sheer technicality of being published a century too soon). we must correct this injustice

#jeeves and wooster #i want to watch tumblr go rabid i want to watch ao3 overflow with jeeves/wooster fanfiction #yes obviously the fandom EXISTS but it's a cozy little neighborhood #a handful of talented artists and writers doing their best to keep their charming little village going #but i'm tired of cozy i want this fandom TRENDING #I WANT TO SEE THIS ON MY DASHBOARD PEOPLE #i swear to you if they made a shiny new tv series tumblr would absolutely obsess over these characters. good omens levels of obsession #it's just such a great dynamic! the good-natured overly-trusting bumbling idiot in constant need of rescuing! #the stoic all-knowing genius who quietly masterminds mayhem in order to protect this one moron he's devoted himself to for some reason #jeeves as a morosexual is just such a beautiful interpretation of the original text #wooster as a happy-go-lucky himbo who stumbles his way into a relationship with a protective caring and supremely competent mastermind #the angst and social complexities of a same-sex cross-class relationship in turn-of-the century london! #oh AND half the stories are about jeeves helping wooster get out of engagements/desperately avoid marriage #two men who live together constantly scheming to maintain their bachelorhood. this is quite literally the main plot point #the gay subtext is there! the gay subtext is there and very ripe for picking!!! #this thing is LOCKED AND LOADED we can pounce literally any time

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #lan wangji #wei wuxian #blood #Imagine coming off as homophobic to your crush so bad he weaponizes a strip tease against you. #LWJ is just having a storm of bad emotions. His tummy hurt real bad and he was just trying to be brave about it! #WWX is just trying to be a good bro and heal his friendcrush. It worked but not for the reasons he thinks it did. #LWJ's shyness is also hilarious here considering they have bathed together before. Literally nothing there he hasn't seen before. #Granted it was a few years back and before he was left to stew in his feelings. #LWJ is more focused on his pride than being responsible and reasonable (getting is wounds treated). #His arc really is about accepting that he can't be perfect. That there is importance in being honest and vulnerable. #The tragedy is that he realizes this way too late. #Pride is the worst sin because it destroys your ability to protect anything other than the smallest crown in the world. #When everyone is gone and you are left alone - was it worth it to feel safe and protected from showing your flaws? #Control over oneself is in conflict with connection to others. You cannot pick both. #Hanguang-jun appears to us as a 'perfect guy' but the truth is that he is the version of LWJ who is done with *needing* that validation. #And this time - He can properly reach out to those he wants to be close with.

thinking about arthur who has crazy quick reflexes and is a relatively light sleeper who woke up to the sound of someone in his room and saw merlin crouched down messing with his keys before softly asking “whatre you doing?…before breakfast?”

#like in that scene in s2 when merlin was calling out arthurs name from under his bed #and he jumped up (thinking merlin was long gone) grabbed his sword and postured for a fight #or that one in idk which season when merlin was sneaking in his room and he woke up and grabbed his sword when merlin bumped a chair #and then merlin brought the canopy/curtains around his bed down on him #vs waking up to see melin splayed over him and staring for a beat #before flinching back #(he was definitely having some thoughts and/or dreams) #idk thinking about arthur who trusts merlin inplicitly and allows himself to lower his guard around him #his guard which he keeps up even in his sleep #GOD imagining them in an established relationship and merlin for once has so much trouble waking arthur up #like before it was sorta bad but arthur was always in that half awake state #but now that theyre together….arthur wont even groan when merlin starts poking his ribs #arthur finally feeling so safe and protected that he allows his guard to drop in his sleep #and its the first time hes ever felt truly refreshed in the morning #so now merlin has infinitely morr trouble waking him up but when hes up hes UP and ready to go #bbc merlin #merlin emrys #arthur pendragon #merthur #arthur bby they could never make me hate you #hes just a girl desperately craving love and protection #merlin isnt even offering it #hes shoving it into arthurs arms with insults flying off the tongue #theyre so disgusting #(affectionate) #<3 #headcanon #head canon #hc

To all the nosy neighbour enjoyers, thank you for being that. Anyway here's my propaganda!! Just some of my favorite moments tee hee

Sorry if my BigB looks weird (I tried really hard :( ) I'll pretend that that's intentional given my rabbit hybrid BigB thoughts under cut:

I made a little post about this before but basically BigB has such rabbit behavior:

1. Cannot help but keep burying himself underground like it's his natural habitat (seriously he comes back on ground to build a house on a mountain and then immediately makes an elaborate underground hideout again. Or how he built backrooms in SL and kept retreating there. Or how he was literally underground when he ran into Pearl, for Pearl to inform him that it was night time and BigB immediately wanting to retreat back underground. Or how he was underground for almost the entire "red winter is coming" session. Or)

2. Often fidgety around others

3. Constantly cautious but doesn't let nervousness show if there is any

4. More prone to keeping distance and watching rather than engaging

Idk he is extremely prey animal behavior (positive, affectionate) and I can never see him as anything but a rabbit now. I considered giving him rabbit legs too but then I was like nah. Because I think him having weird rabbit posture in a mostly human body contributes some inherent awkwardness and a bit of uncannines (fitting with his gaslighting tendencies). After all he's kind of out of his element above ground (or that's how he acts!) and that's when people are going to be seeing him. But just you wait till he stands tall for a change to tell someone off (like Cleo in SL or Scott in LimL). And with such posture, he inadvertently makes himself look smaller, which certainly would help him weasel his way out of undesired situations like he often does, eg by talking people into pitying him to save himself from dying. I'd also like to imagine him to be smart enough to manipulate his rabbit ears to not betray how he's feeling or to make others think he's feeling a certain way, unless he feels particularly threatened or something. That's maybe half the appeal of animal ears to me, that they can be an added tool for emoting, but a hybrid moving them in deliberate ways is a fun concept!

Oh and he has caving boots!!

I do kind of seethingly hate how he looks with his ears drawn back but I did the best I could. I really hate having human ears in addition to animal ears personally, but if I put his ears any further up where they'd look cuter (Pearl's antennae for comparision) it'll look really weird. Aghh whatever he's supposed to be awkward so whatever please ignore it Im going to cry

Also if you think the old design is cuter, it's almost certainly because of the lesser facial hair lol trust me!! And I changed the curly hair to be a bit less curly in likeness to Lee from Walking Dead because I did not realize that BigB's skin is basically that and I couldn't help myself. I was overall really unhappy with my old BigB design so yay for redesign. I swear its not just animal features that make things interesting for me...... maybe somewhat....

#thank you guys for voting big/pearl over big/grian I actually didnt think itd happen (Grian curse) (I LOVE Grian and the secret soulmates!!) #bigb #bigb fanart #pearlescentmoon #nosy neighbors #limited life fanart #not drawn with shipping in mind view as you wish #also I hope to god no one interprets the “He's mine” thing as yandere Pearl please do not do that thats not what that is #she's just protective. it's her first real friend since double life cut her some slack #trafficblr #tubby art

one thing i really wish people wouldn’t forget when it comes to suguru’s character is that his core desire is just to have a family. not in a nuclear family way, but in a “i want a place where i belong / i want to protect the ones i love” way…… literally everything else is just an extension of that desire. a means to meet that end. he broke down after being forced to realize that staying with his family meant having to watch them die, so he left and made a new one. and he got stronger. and his core wish was always, always always to create a world where he’d finally be able to protect them :(((((((((

#don’t get me wrong geto is absolutely twisted and deluded and downright cruel #and that’s not something you should or could look away from when analyzing his character #but i also think it’s wrong to look away from this part of him because it’s in EVERYTHING he is and does!!!!! #one of the big tipping points for him was the realization that being a sorcerer meant choosing civilians over his family #he just wanted a place where he belonged. he just wanted his loved ones to be safe #suguru is very very selfish at his core and a big part of that selfishness is connected to those desires #he protects His People. his family. #he loves them so sincerely and protects them so fervently #idk it’s just . easy to forget i think. because cult leader geto is bitter and sad and pathetic #but he also has such a sincere love for those he keeps close and i think that makes him sooooo much more interesting #like yes his goal was stupid but that goal was never the actual point. he just needed it to keep himself alive #he needed something to give his actions Meaning #and the something he ended up settling on was the idea of a world where he could protect his loved ones . #and that says soooo much about him….. #sorry i woke up thinking of him </3 #my princess 😔😔 #ari noises ✩

will holding mike's face when they kiss and mike holding will's neck when they kiss. that is all

#something something mike getting called frog face and being insecure about his looks and something something will loving him BECAUSE of that #<- like. how he looks #and so when they kiss his fingers naturally drift to mike's face to run over his defined jaw and his cheeks and in his messy curly hair #because will loves & adores those parts of him so much & he finally gets to cherish them as his. #and mike like. tears up about it or whatever. and something something mike subconciously feeling like he needs to protect will from #-everything so he places his hands - his big giant hands that he has also probably been insecure about - over will's neck to cover it #-completely because he wants to stamp out that feeling that darkness lurks around every corner in will's neck #he just wants will to feel safe and warm in his arms and the heat of mike's hands practically dissolves the chill down will's neck #or whatever. if you even care. and they make out sloppy also #stranger things #byler #mike wheeler #will byers #st.txt

[ cw: violence mention / death mention / ]

Will never stop thinking about how Leo, all alone in an endless void and being beaten again and again and again by the only other living thing around, still finds comfort in that space. The situation he was in was completely hopeless, and in any other circumstances he would not have escaped, at least not fast enough to save him from permanent (or even fatal) damage, be it physical or mental.

And yet, despite the bleakness of his situation, despite the agony and helplessness, all he needs is one glance at a crumbled photograph, one glance to remember his family, and that’s enough of a reason for him to smile.

Maybe that’s why his powers center around manipulating space - because no matter how much space is between them, no matter how dire his own situation may be, just the thought of his family, alive and okay, is enough to give Leo hope.

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt leo #rise leo #the prison dimension is horrifying on its own #add in a monstrous being that towers over you and has vowed to ensure your suffering? #god I can’t imagine how scary that is #Mikey opening the portal was a miracle because if he hadn’t managed it there #it’s really up in the air what could have become of Leo #personally I subscribe by the theory that you straight up can’t die in the prison dimension #so it’s a prison in all ways #but the thought of a Leo who manages anyway who adapts and continues to have hope despite it all… #Leo saying he’s nothing without his family is a double edged sword really #because the thought of his family alone is all he needs to live. to hope. #to smile #nothing without them…but they’re EVERYTHING to him #and maybe he doesn’t realize it but…the feeling is mutual #one thing too is that hope that comforts Leo so much is not just that #should he think his family needs help - that hope can turn into determination #I’m unwell about this family #actually on my point of their powers - I truly do think the abilities tie in not only to their personalities #but to their relationship to family and love in general #kinda like love languages in a way #Mikey with his chains and time abilities values being around his family the most - he wants them to experience living in the moment togethe #Donnie is someone who is 100% a gift giver to show his love - his constructs are exactly that aren’t they? gifts of his mind #Raph is someone who willingly bears the weight of the shield - he protects his family like the best big brother possible #and Leo - he goes off on his own a lot but his mind is constantly on his family anyway #like a sailor at sea no matter how far he travels the compass always point in one direction - and for him that compass points home #even if he can’t make it back - it’s still there #and that’s enough

"I was gonna say you're like a son to me.. but you're more than that."

"It ain't that complicated!"

How quickly that shoulder pat of comfort turned into a condescending one.

#he makes me feel so emo #this life was never meant for you but your fate was forced #the way dutch (and hosea) talks to arthur like he's stupid will never sit right with me #like they've been by his side over 20 years they KNOW he isn't stupid because if he was he would have been gone a long time ago #not only is arthur incredibly emotionally smart but he's a trained conman vault breaker gunslinger horse rider you name it #the fact that his own adoptive parents break him down like that hurts #it's a manipulation tactic on dutch's end - break your victims self esteem to make them chase your praise and approval #hosea I believe has just gone along with that kind of attitude but in a different way he just likes to jest lightheartedly #arthur doesn't see the difference though and it's understandable but he takes it to heart #the worst part is that hosea sees through his tough guy act and has called arthur out on it #his act is a defence mechanism to protect himself from being too vulnerable - in arthur's mind #and it isn't a sudden thing it's very likely something that has built over the years given the life he has lived #and hosea notices he knows this #but they still jab at arthur #oh it hurts #is he your son dutch? or is he your guard dog? your personal workhorse? #playing through the second time is opening my eyes more and more #rdr2 #red dead redemption 2 #mick squeaks #mick rants #mick gifs #arthur morgan #dutch van der linde #liveblogging #you guys gotta understand - arthur seeks and longs for dutch's approval he'll never say it but it's the key motive behind his loyalty #and arthur *rejects* dutch's comfort #he doesn't *want* dutch to pat him on the shoulder because he knows dutch is digging them an even deeper hole #he doesn't want that touch he craves #it's so insanely monumental for such a small scene because it shows us how arthur feels without telling us

You know what, Sukuna lowkey had it out for Choso since Shibuya. Probably did not like the fact that Yuji had someone, actual family... an actual blood brother that cared about him. He been had plans to kill him, I just know it.

#ate his own brother and decided 'hey i need to still break you so CHOSO IT IS!' #and he knows how those two bonded over time #since they started this fight just felt like he was bullying choso I'm telling you #personally i feel like sukuna knew that choso would have jumped in front of yuji to protect because again he knows how those two bonded #and he knows that a weakness of choso's is the love he has for his brothers #sukuna doesn't care for love but he'll damn sure exploit it #and i would not be surprised that sukuna will pull the 'only family you have left card' just to get at yuji #probably planned to use that card since he realized 'ah shit the brat is my soul nephew!' #reminder he goes into the shinjuku battle knowing that info #choso you will always be best big bro to me #just kiya's thoughts #jjk #jujutsu kaisen #jjk 106 #jjk 246 #jjk 256 #jjk 259 #jjk manga spoilers #jjk spoilers #sukuna #ryomen sukuna #sukuna ryomen #choso #kamo choso #choso kamo #yuuji itadori #yuji itadori #itadori yuji #itadori yuujj

Merrill banters I am thinking about all the time always 24/7

merrill truly will incessantly worry she's stupid and missing the point all the time and then take you out with the most beautifully worded and compassionate breakdown of the thematic spine of DA2 you've ever heard. no actually daisy I think you're the only one getting the point here slowly but surely

especially this one, actually: (also why I could see how bioware would bring merrill into DA:D on solas' side, but also I really really don't want them to because her arc is just -- it's just incredible and I don't want them to mess with it lol)

'I don't think people are cleansed by fire'. people make mistakes and you have to believe in them anyway. yeah basically that's the thesis of dragon age huh

#'hawke is my friend. they are my people'. simple not stupid. I love you so much merrill #dragon age #dragon age 2 #on second thought let's not go to kirkwall; it is a silly place #merrill #the way you also sense through merrill's story how varric is like... protective to the point of slightly paternalistic over her #(not in a deliberate/ill-intentioned way but just with the intensity of how badly he wants her to be ok. I feel u bro) #but also clearly respects her insight and intellect so much #he gives her by far the most 'glimpsing the shape of the narrative' moments #merrill is kind of diametrically ideologically opposed to solas when you think about it -- her wanting to preserve the past #is about helping the people who are already *here*; to give something back to them #solas is planning on killing the people already here to give *someone* back the past one day #(I don't necessarily think he's entirely convinced by himself tho so like let's see how that one plays out haha)
