#and k's low key dying

[nethereasypeasy]

Some fluffy head canons I have about the Baldurs Babes

mainly at camp :)

Gale stops tav to lace their boots, sarcastically tutting as he does it.

Karlach holds her hands round someones bowl and cups to warm them if they cool down too much. (Mama K microwave™)

Jaheira and Halsin share nightcaps and chat about the tadpole team. Mainly laughing at their comparative lack of experience - always ends on a 'they're good eggs tho' vibe.

Astarion and Shadowheart rate people's hair to eachother as an injoke, tav hears them mumbling numbers behind them whenever they speak to someone.

Lae'zel asks Gale to explain and pronounce things when no one is around because the 'annoying wizard' won't make fun, he's too eager to teach.

Jaheira has the best bedtime stories but they get Karlach hyped up and she asks a lot of questions till Astarion begs her to be quiet. Wyll takes mental notes for his own storytelling.

Karlach will force a game of 'I Spy' any time there is silence on the road.

Wyll is very good at little random gifts, he just remembers anything someone mentions to him. He's also low-key emotional if you return that kindness, 'you remembered?! 😭'

Halsin stops, kneels and whispers as he points and shows tav interesting plants or animals he spots when walking. 'look there's the mother and her babies' type shit. (He is camp dad(dy) ok)

Wyll teaches Lae'zel fencing. She's too keen though and tries to pin him down. She is not as graceful... But she has fun... chk!

Gale keeps a tiny portrait of Tara on him, you can't tell me modern au Gale's phone wouldn't be full of cat pics.

Astarion watches over the camp at night, he acts like he 'might as well/ I'm the only one lurking in the dark around HERE darlings' but sometimes he secretly gets a little teary looking at his first real friends all together.

Shadowheart writes moody poetry. She would tell Gale but she doesn't care for his taste... Or his possible critiques. If he ever did find her journal though he would be VERY enthused.

Astarion and tav will play with people's wardrobes when looting. Tav loves a funny hat and Astarion will do impressions of who he thinks would wear such god's awful attire.

Gale and Wyll play chess together after dinner some nights. They both say progressively cheesy lines when they take pieces, which is its own game itself at this point.

Halsin would quietly sing or hum to owlbear baby and scratch at night. Little lullabies and he'd probably tuck them in too. OR he'd be big daddy bear and snuggle up, especially when owlbear is scared and misses his mum.

The gang have played 'never have I ever' ONE time and ONE time only. It was a messy night.

... Jaheira was 100% last man standing.

Alot of the plots were good - but some aspects just really made the season overall awful . How dare they do that to Max. I'm livid about that. You really had venca's curse represent su*cidal thoughts- which we see Max overcoming in part 1 . Then part 2: bam vecna k*lls max- the girl who str*ggled with ab*se, a horrible home life ,and throughout the season overcame her su*cidal thoughts but got an awful ending . And while dying she says over and over she doesn't want to d*e. It's cruel. Even if she does wake up from the coma - is she blind and or paralyzed and never able to skate again? Play videogames watch movies ?And for what- vecna is alive , and hawkins was still destroyed. Her sacrifice wasn't worth it. And Eddie's death was not only cruel but pointless too. He didn't even save anyone during the scene. And he literally mentioned how he did not want to become like his criminal dad . They kill him and the whole town thinks he's a worse criminal than his father. And he never graduated - it was "not his year". Aka part of his last words.The erica and lucas scenes of being attacked- honestly deserves it's own post. Also the romance is still low key one of the worst cringe parts of an otherwise great show.

I'm sorry m*leven is still so sus to me. Like besides all their relationship issues, it's weird s1-s4 parallels m*leven to family members. Like seriously side eyeing the Duffers just for those weird family parallels- if m*leven is romantic endgame. I mean ...nancy called herself "ruth" and el was in "Ruth, nevada" (and that's like 1 of 20 examples). Just to name one of many of those weird family parallels. Like why do that?? And yeah if it's an actual romantic declaration - you'd think they'd kiss like they did in the beginning of s4 . Not even getting into retcons like mike saying meeting Will at age 5 was "the best thing I've ever done". But now he says his "life started" at age 12 when he met el- cause "love at first sight" bs trope. Love at first sight isn't real. And mike literally the day they found her was suggesting ways to send her away so they could go back to looking for Will, and when he thought el lied ( about seeing Will alive) he slapped her hand and yelled "what is wrong with you?"2x then later said lucas was right to not trust her. Ummm... love at first sight? That?! Ok?And wow glad Will could hear mike's confession about how the 1st day he was reported missing- mike's " life began". Mike be like : "I knew Will for 7 years , before I met el . And all my friendships prior to meeting el- meant nothing to me- because my life only began when I fell in love with El instantly and rushed into a relationship after 1 week of knowing her (and when we finally Date- we just fight for 2 seasons straight). True love. "

Honestly they parallel robin/vickie/her bf to will/mike/El - which is also sus. Given how (supposedly straight) Vickie and her bf breakup- and Vickie seems into Robin at the end of s4.

But regardless I'm so sick of just getting "crumbs" whether byler is a queer bait or s5 makes byler canon. I'm just tired- especially after how the socials /cast and crew constantly pumped up byler during pride month- before part 2.

Not to mention the fact we have to just see Will lie to mike to help m*leven. Even though he hates lying to mike. Like no that was Will's painting -el thought it was for a crush of Will's (she didn't commission it for Mike at all)! He was just trying to be a good friend and brother by trying to fix m*leven (and lying to mike to fix m*leven's failing romantic relationship).like think about it- mike literally thinks that d&d painting /"heart" metaphor was El's creative idea and something el made as a gift for him . When it was all Will!!! That "heart" line Will says to mike is used again later by Will- to encourage mike to confess he loves El. Will literally uses his own romantic words for mike- to encourage mike to confess to el instead. Gross. If m*leven is endgame- could they do it in a less awful way to Will? Not to mention mike finally says he loves el-partially because he's moved by Will's painting (he thinks is from el). Which is also messy for m*leven endgame. All those words in the car to mike were Will's confession (he literally just replaced his pronouns for "El" and "she/her" ). Even jonathan saw it that way. Will to mike: " you're guiding- inspiring . That's what you do. you're the heart, without the heart (i'd) fall apart. These past few months (i've) been lost without you.(cough mike said the "lost " line to Will first) .When you're different from other people ... when you're different ... sometimes you feel like a mistake. But you make (me) feel like (I'm) not a mistake at all. And that gives (me ) courage to fight on. If (I) seemed like (I) was pushing you away. It's because (I'm)scared of losing you. "

And the fact we're just left with Will sulking in the corner - and being a trope of "sad gay character in love with his (supposedly straight) best friend". And have Will low key fix that the dysfunction het couple - who have trivial convoluted drama/dysfunction every season they date. But never actually resolve any of their fundamental issues - lying, spying, neglecting all their friends for eachother ,etc. Because you know the trope: gays always have to step aside and sacrifice the romantic love they have for a friend -so that same friend can instead live " happily ever after" (in a het relationship). Even if that het couple is dysfunctional and poorly written. I'm gay ... and just so tired of this type of stuff , repeated over and over and over again in media. Do writers not realize bad-rep is much worse than no-rep?Like if byler isn't canon these scenes right here are literally just rubbing salt in the wounds of Will and other gay/queer fans who empathize or relate to him.

It's like i've mentioned in the past a lot of straight writers LOVE the 'sad gay - trope' . Alot of those straight writers don't empathize with us as people, they infact "romanticize our pain" and find it "beautiful" . And just find our suffering "dramatic and angsty" decoration to their story- where they can also add bragging points of being "inclusive". They don't actually care about how problematic the queer rep is -and how it negatively affects us.

Even Will said he'd rather "pull the bandaid off" in regards to romance drama between him and mike. But duffers didn't do that- or give any closure for Will. Nah they forgot his bday and did this instead. Heck, no romantic closure for Will or even the whole st*ncy/j*ncy drama. Which is a whole other can of worms in itself (i'm saying this as someone who doesnt ship either st*ncy or j*ncy). Regardless of what could happen in s5. I'm just tired of how poorly some (frankly most) of the romance is handled in the series.

If m*leven is endgame they did it in the most reductive , stereotypical, predictable, and also hurtful way possible to lgbt fans. Without actually fixing m*leven's real issues to make us like them together as a couple. Heck (not only do they have problems that were never fixed ) : like lying /spying/ mike still hero worshiping her - which were never fixed ). They're now just a cliche ("love at first sight couple", who ever since they started dating have artifical convoluted drama every season ). Literally s3 and 4 are the same: m*leven neglect their friends for eachother, lie to eachother , fight with eachother, then say they're in love. There's no change , no progess they just repeat the same problematic pattern. Forget mike saying in part 1 this was a fight the pairing "couldn't get past" or mike nodding to Will saying maybe he's afraid to tell el the truth, cause she may not like it. Ummm - part 2 doesn't connect to that, why would El not like his confession? Not to mention mike only can say he loves her in s3 and 4 when her life is in danger (and in s4 when Will encourages him to keep talking)- not sus at all. The whole season Mike shares dialogue with brenner - even in the love confession (ick). And lol after his love confession- el won't talk to him. (purposeful hinting it won't work out ? or just horrible writing for an awful romantic pair who always have had poor communication?) Straight-mike narratively just makes mike a sh*t friend too- going from a great , considerate,and observant friend in s1 and 2. But , then the second he starts dating El in s3 :he neglects his friends for 2 straight seasons in favor of El (all while being a not good bf to her for 95% of their relationship). And also he literally said his life didn't begin until el (this is literally insulting to all his prior friendships which were established long before meeting el ). Straight-mike isn' t the "heart" of any party as Will claimed - not anymore (he straight up says his other relationships don't matter. Will, lucas, dustin- pfft his" life didn't even begin " until el ). Some of the worst days of Will's life - pfft mike, his bff, doesn't care about Will's tra*ma cause it gave him the chance to meet el. And he'll say it -right infront of Will. Iike mike could have said he's grateful to have met el in so many ways - but bringing up the day itself like that. Ugh. But in the end, both seasons his friends are the ones who have to help mike retain this supposed perfect romance. And let's get real they have no chemistry as a pairing- Mike just doesn't seem genuine in his love . And the confession incorporating mike's desire to be "needed" and having mike call her a "hero" and "superman'.yeah- hero worship from mike and dependence from el (winning romantic combo) . Also yeah , weird how El's "hero' is her dad and mike's is El. Given again all the family parallels. Heck terry(mom)/ mike saying "I love you" to El- is what gets her to defeat vecna.

And If byler is endgame in s5 - the duffers are overestimating how much bs they can put queer fans through- before they give us a happy ending . Like wow thanks for ending the season with mike & Will standing together, in between 2 other romantic pairings. After you made Will suffer through a bunch of problematic queer tropes (that you may subvert in s5- in like... 4 years). I'd say that framing at the end is a hint of byler- but they did the same framing in s3 only to do this in s4. So they may just leave those hints in the show to string and queer bait us longer. But honestly even if byler is canon in s5 (i actually think it has a decent chance of being endgame ): the Duffers sabotaged themselves. Becuse now bylers are less engaged in wanting to watch s5, and in s5 you'd piss off the m*levens . Cause mike would have lied to El and led her on (or just said it cause he didn't want her to d*e/ he meant he loved her in a non romantic way). But also when mike did his romance speech to El- he said the most messed up stuff right infront of Will ( aka the day Will was k*dnapped is when mike finally felt alive- cause he met El) . THAT'S SO MESSED UP. most bylers probably won't even bother to watch s5 - assuming the worst again too.

So my point is - regardless of whether mike is straight, gay or bi (they wrote themselves into a corner where mike looks bad either way). And his relationships with both of them are messy af.

It just snowed here, and now I'm thinking of a couple of snowy headcanons with konig that I MUST share:

- When he shovels the the driveway, its low-key kind of hot. (Similar to a lumberjack chopping wood🫦).

- They have snowball fights like they're kids.

- Engel puts her cold hands on his back just to watch him jump.

- Konig definitely didn't watch where he was going and slipped on ice.

- He makes the suggestion, "I know a way that I can warm you up😏 sex" when Engel complains she's cold.

- Alternatively, when Engel says she's cold, he actually gives her his jacket. But the thing is - he doesn't handle the cold pretty well. But he's too prideful to admit it🙄.

E: "are you cold?"

K: "Nein, nein *teeth chattering*"

- Konig might actually order Engel to not drive on these "dangerous rodes." Getting winter tires for her car ASAP.

Anyways, that's all for now 🚶‍♀️.

This is too adorable, they're so cute 🥺💘 Drinking hot cocoa with marshmallows and huddling together when it storms outside, and then enjoying the sparkly winter wonderland the next day

I think Engel goes absolutely mental during snowball fights and won't stop at nothing to have her victory. König gets his ass whooped by this giggling menace and has to eventually chase her to the snow, throw her over his shoulder (she's still giggling) and carry her inside so that she'll calm her tits.

But noooo not König offering his jacket and then acting like it's no big deal that he's slowly dying of cold! Chivalry is not dead ❤️

Hi I have seen that your request are open. Can I please request K as a boyfriend headcanon. I love K so much and I'm happy that you also write for &team. 🥰🥰🤩

Ps: I love your writings😘

ケイ Kei as your bf (づ ᴗ _ᴗ)づ♡

A/N ೃ⁀➷ I'm so happy you requested it!! I've wanted to write boyfriend K headcanons for agessss! (*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ) Mwah Mwah - kisses for my gratefulness ( ˘ ³˘)♥︎ pls if you ever have any other ideas for K 🦘content, you can count me as your num1 wish granter (◡̀_◡́)ᕤ Anw! Hope you'll enjoy this one! (⁎⁍̴̛ ₃ ⁍̴̛⁎)!!

⇆༶•┈┈┈┈┈┈୨◁ㅤ ❚❚ ㅤ▷୧┈┈┈┈┈•༶↻

The unexpectedly clingy one. Kei is probably the one person that you’ve expected least to be a clingy little puppy. His constant determination in his work really gave you that impression – but you only noticed it was the total opposite when you’d receive sweet ‘I miss you’s from him every second he’s away at work; and the ‘good morning’s paired with sweet motivational quotes; although you must admit how old-styled the quotes can be sometimes – but they didn’t fail to motivate and humor you.

A puppy who’s a big fan of physical affection. Every corner of your house, he will be stuck to you like gum, sharing body heat every single second of the day. “Keiiii, just give me one second I need to get that pan up there”, you’d whine. Instantly you felt your feet off the ground as he carried your feather-light body – “There baby~ better?” You couldn’t help but pout and proceeds with your work. There’s no way you can push this puppy off of you.

Loves being super intimate with you. Of course he knows you have a boundary and he totally respects that but that doesn’t stop him from being so touchy and clingy with you – basically goes hand in hand with the point above. You’d often find yourself in the bathtub or shower together with him and you’d just stand there, questioning yourself in the head like; ‘howwww did it escalated to here-‘

It’s easy to make him flustered and the entire process is so evident too especially on his expressive little cute face. “Wow! Hehe you look so cute in that scarf love!” – “hmm but I prefer your hands around my neck~” – ba’am he’s spinning and turning and rolling, practically blushing and dying from your smutty comment. His brain going complete short circuit while you stood there with an innocent little smile.

But the flustered state won’t last long because he’ll always have a better comeback to throw you off even more than you could to him. In the blink of an eye, his huge hands are wrapped around your petite neck, his warm breath hitched close to your ear, and he spoke with a low tone – “you’re right love~ they really do look better around your neck than that scarf.” Oh fuck, you know you’re in great trouble now.

He’s the one boy who tries his best to always do the best for you but the occasion always gotta go wrong one way or another; guess luck just wasn’t on his side – probably because Kei himself was the embodiment of luck. Your puppy boyfriend had fully planned out a picnic date on the beach for the evening – a view of the tangerine blob of light fading in a daze in the sky. Suddenly, it started pouring, both of you were drenched as you two booked it back to the car. The bright smile on his face has now faded into a dazed saddened frown – but you reassured him you had the best date ever which brought back his warm glittering smile that you’ve always adored.

Literally hates his baby photos and tries to hide every piece and bit of his childhood photos from you because those are what you’d use most to tease him with – “Awww look at who this cute little boy isssss~ this cute little boy who’s munching on snacks~ loookkkk, awwww I just wanna give him a huggg~!” – earning a pout and a frown from your cute boyfriend. “Hey! But this boy in front of you is cuter!” his whiny tone followed by a clingy hug; had you chuckling and giggling. Only he’s allowed to tease you; not the other way around!

Takes thousands of selfies of you two together but then hesitates which ones to post every single time – because he’s too indecisive – and just like that the photos weren’t post on theme because the special occasion was eventually over. Kei’s had this trouble even before you two got together but it did helped a bit now that you’re here since you’re more of a decisive person; you could guide and help out your troubled little boyfriend.

Pretends like he don’t wanna share you his food. Kei holds up the chopsticks, a piece of porkchop in between, practically taunting your hungry figure; swaying it in front of your eyes. Yet when you try to take a bite, the piece of meat goes flying straight to his mouth. Kei smiled and giggled at your shocked and pouty expression yet when he sees the saddened expression on your face, he can’t help but apologize and pile up snacks and meals right around you like a puppy building a nest.

Flirty and romantic – sometimes you even think he is the epitome of cupid but instead the kind who kept shooting heart arrows at YOU and apparently, it’s working because you just kept falling into a spiral of love around him. Blows hearts and kisses at you even through the air whenever he sees you pass by at work – and he does it really obviously too just to flaunt it. Matching outfits are a must, at home or outside. The type who could come up with a more heart-attack-like comebacks to your flirty and smutty comments. The type who would feed you with a kiss instead of a spoon – he loves to be unique okayyy.

Your personal dance teacher. He isn’t the type to convert you into his hobbies but you yourself originally was into dancing – and just knowing that your own boyfriend is a professional at it, got you requesting him to teach you. Very focused and determined when he does so; might be a bit strict with you though, but that’s just how he is when it’s work hours, so you aren’t complaining. Might get a little bit too touchy in some moves; ahem and then it leads to something else – heated sex in the practice room

Lovessss to flaunt his strength and size to you very often. Would pick you up out of nowhere with his single arm – “showing off your muscles again Kei?” – “hehe don’t pretend you don’t love them baby” (I mean he ain’t wrong-) Would also hug you from whatever position and you would just feel like being sunk into a huge giant teddy bear – perfect for the snowy winters.

Gets strict with you when it comes to your health. You’re the kind of restless person who loves to bury yourself in work and stress, and it might barely affect you but Kei is definitely phased. He’ll drag you out every morning to the park for morning jogs, take away your piles of fast food – and make you some fresh veggie salads and when the clock dings midnight – “alright enough work baby, time to sleep~!” – “naur but I need to finish this” – “absolutely not~” – drags you straight to bed and hugs you like a teddy. You can’t even escape with his size and weight. He makes sure you get enough sleep except those nights when you guys must attend to your sexual desires – he could definitely make an exception for that.

Needy, mushy, wet kisses that often escalate to needier events. Sometimes you would earn little pecks from your huge boyfriend as a sign of affection and you absolutely adored them. But whenever this puppy comes home from work, omg no more pecks, literally draws you into him and makes out with you to the point you felt like he was gonna eat your face. Your puppy’s just missed you too much, could you blame him?

When he sees you drowning in his oversized hoodies or shirts, omg it’s like his soul got thrown to a whole ‘nother dimension. Literally melts at the sight of it all, and doesn’t miss even a second to pull out his phone and spam the camera shots. At the same time, the tent in his sweatpants is seriously visible as well – got your eyes widening and everything. Welp, might as well get on with it now that the tent won’t go down~ and for the photos he took earlier? – well that can wait for when he gets to work – might need a release or two on his breaks.

Amnesia!Dabi

K, I don’t know if my asks are being eaten, or not, but my devices are being temperamental little shits, so I’m sending this instead, because the submissions usually work. If the asks did get through, apologies for cluttering up your in box, and you don’t have to answer this one (but if this sucker deletes itself one more time, I am chucking it out a window).

The asks seem to be disappearing but the submissions are working! Idk why! But given the length and topics I’m going to be putting this one under the read more and answering in bold!

Topics separated by *

How long was Toya a Hero before “dying”? What kind of mission was it That led to his “death”?

In CC I have it be that he was a Hero for a bit under two years. I haven’t picked an exact date, but he graduated UA having just barely turned 18, and died sometime when he was 19.

As for the ‘mission’..... I haven’t hammered out the exact nature, but he still dies in a forest fire. This time it was chasing down a villain who decided to hide in the forest. That said, the cause of the fire is still unknown. Given how AfO(or whoever he had doing this shit for him) managed to yoink Toya’s nearly-dead body before anyone else despite how many search and rescue teams were looking for survivors.... I may make it that this was intentional on the villains part, one of the associates luring him in and starting a fire to fake his death.

*

How exactly do the other Todoroki’s see Himiko, do you think? Like, they clearly accept her readily enough, but how quickly are they just adding her to the family tree?

I feel like Fuyumi and Himiko’s relationship would be a little awkward for a while. Like, Fuyumi feels as though Toya replaced her with Himiko, while Himiko probably ends up seeing herself as Dabi’s replacement goldfish. “Oh, he only started caring about me because I remind him of his sister. He has his sister back now. He probably doesn’t need/want me anymore.” I mean, they probably have a very heartfelt conversation about how he can love and care for both of them, but how long would that take?

I did answer the thing about the ‘feeling replaced/like a replacement’ in another ask but yeah they’d have to have a conversation about it. Tbh I think either Shoto or Enji would prompt that conversation due to the whole, ya know, Enji accidentally made Toya feel like he was replaced by Shoto(though in that case he kinda was but not exactly but still). So they kinda click on to what’s happening and remind Fuyumi that /she’s/ the one who’s always reminding them to talk about things but stubborn hypocrisy runs in the family.

I think this would lead to the more solidly ‘adding Himiko to the family’ because when they /do/ talk and Toya finds out he puts his foot down on nope, they’re both his sisters and they’re different people and that’s fine!

But also... the family is real weird in that they have a habit already of going ‘well you’re family now’. Like the Burnin thing is still happening here. And Hawks was low-key getting dragged in. They might be a little more dragged in in this au but that’s a different subject.

*

How exactly do you think they confirm Dabi is Toya, and not a Nomu? Once it’s confirmed, how do they even break it to anyone else?

Testing for that would happen really early on. So it.

After Dabi shows up at UA with Himiko, they interrogate him on things as one would for a villain that just turned themselves in. He confesses to the amnesia stuff(he kinda has to because he can’t answer basic questions like ‘what’s your legal name?’ and ‘how old are you?’). He offers what he does know.

And like. There are some very obvious clues. His Quirk for one. If he tells them about how ‘that peppermint kid triggered a memory’. He’d probably tell them he dyed his hair but it’s actually white(though it might also be a bit red at this point given he hasn’t been overusing his Quirk). He’s pretty sure he had siblings because of the memory triggers from Himiko.

They start putting it together but do dna and fingerprint tests to be sure before they tell anyone. And the results of the DNA testing do indicate 100% match to Toya.

Now re: Nomu specifically.... they haven’t encountered a Nomu that’s any kind of coherent. All of them are very kinda fucked up. (Side note for both this and CC: though both Dabi and Kurogiri were experimented on, it was different than the Frankenstein nonsense the other Nomu are so they’re still themselves.)

Breaking it to anyone else is hard but they break it to Enji first because ya boy has the security clearance to Deal With This™. But it pretty much boils down to just telling him the facts of “Hey, a villain just turned himself in. Says he has amnesia but the shit he does remember, along with physical features and his Quirk and along with the dna testing we did say that it’s your fuckin kid”.

Which. Enji takes about as well as one can in that situation. A bit skeptical at first because he has to be, so he does make sure there’s no chance they’re wrong but GOD his kid is alive even if he doesn’t remember jack shit.

They let Enji do the bit re: telling the rest of the family and reassuring them that ‘yes, this is real holy FUCK’.

*

since this is “Enji actually woke up earlier, he’s working on shit” would Rei be in better shape? Maybe not out of the hospital, but visiting more and such?

yes and no? Hm. It.

So things up to and immediately after Toya’s death are pretty much the same as CC and that.... I haven’t gone into it much because I plan to do so in Road to Hell. But obvs Rei’s mental health was on a downward spiral and she goes in the hospital. She does start to get better but.....

The news of Toya’s death causes a drastic relapse. Like she was getting better but was still quite fragile and the death of her son really just hit her hard.

Rei has to come back to that and while I do think it’s a little easier with knowing that Enji is also working on his hot mess of things and that the remaining kids are doing better too, I don’t think it’s enough to speed up her recovery that much.

So she’s likely still in the hospital, but similar to canon/cc she’s on the verge of being cleared for release.

(Now for a bit more comedy)

When Dabi “escapes” the clinic, I think I originally said something like, it takes them a full fifteen hours to notice he’s just gone. How do They realize? What do they do? Why does it take another week to locate him? How absurd can we make this? (Seriously, I like to imagine Dabi’s “escape” as just a comedy of errors, like, Fate decided “oh, you know what’ll be HILARIOUS?”)

I mean I’d assume whatever staff are there go to check on him again. Either in general ‘check his vitals’ or because the one tried to sedate him and didn’t realize it failed so they’re here to sedate him again but whoops he’s gone???

There’s the panic of them trying to find him and all but they honestly just fucking can’t. Surely he didn’t just walk out the door, right? Okay okay okay the door guard was asleep but surely he can’t have wandered /that/ far? Nope he’s just. He’s just gone lmao. They’re all getting fired.

Again, I’m sorry if you did get these asks, but my computer is being glitchy, and it is slowly driving me insane. Also sorry for sending all these at once, you dont have to answer them all! Answer them (or don’t) in your own time, I’m sure you’re busy! Hope you’re having a good day!

(and now, if I hit the “submit” button while chanting a Lord’s Prayer, along with a blood sacrifice, and a can of peach juice, then hopefully it will-

May I ask smallville + ttpd songs?

my love I have been rotating this ask in my mind and at last I have answers!! I do not have a clear enough memory of the chronology of Smallville to organize it that way so it’s gonna be organized by the chronology of the album.

“The Tortured Poets Department”—the vibes of this one are the last dying gasps of the Clark/Lana relationship. they’re so convinced that they belong together that they can’t see the fact that they’re bringing out the worst in each other. key lines: “who else decodes you? and who’s gonna hold you like me?” 

“My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys”—my first instinct was to lay this one at Lex’s door, but upon reflection I think that’s unfair to him. his sin is grasping, always, not ghosting. so “My Boy” is Lana’s pov before she knows Clark’s secret: he gives her attention and acts like she’s the best thing in his world and then when it starts to seem like a real relationship, he runs away. key lines: “cause I knew too much, there was danger in the heat of my touch, he saw forever so he smashed it up”

“Down Bad”—this one is—as you pointed out!!—Lois abandoned by the Blur. it’s less about the loss of the relationship, and more about the loss of the worldview. “told me I was the chosen one, showed me that this world is bigger than us, then sent me back where I came from” is Lois trying to go on without a purpose. and also, “Down Bad” is also a little bit Lex abandoned by Clark. he was shown a world of loving families and good people, and then had the door shut in his face again. but he can’t forget what he saw!!

“But Daddy I Love Him”—this song has a brief moment in the sun when Lex and Lana are starting to hang out a bunch and Chloe tries to warn Lex away from her friend, and it has the inverse effect of driving Lana straight into his arms. key lines: “stay away from her! the saboteurs protested too much” and “I’ll tell you something bout my good name, it’s mine alone to disgrace”. (also: “I’m having his baby, no I’m not” is hysterically ironic)

“Fresh Out the Slammer”—to no one’s surprise, because I have brainrot and only remember one plot point, I’m gonna say this one is Lana trying to walk out of her wedding to go to Clark. key lines: “another summer taking cover, rolling thunder, he don’t understand me/splintered back in winter, silent dinners, bitter” and “now that I know better I will never lose my baby again” and “to the house where you still wait up and that porch light gleams” 

“Florida!!!”—red k Clark lol

“Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?”—I think you’re right, this is equally Lex and Lana. both of them respond to pain by seeking control and power! both of them were softhearted people who got thrown into a circus and grew teeth! Lex is “so tell me everything is not about me, well what if it is?” Lana is “I’m always drunk on my own tears, isn’t that what they all say?”

“I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can)”—if it’s anyone, it’s Clark singing about Lex! “he had a halo of the highest grade, he just hadn’t met me yet” 

“loml”—I’m going to take the dual muse and run with it. it’s Lana addressing both Lex and Clark after everything has finally fallen apart and she’s left with both the wounds from someone who hurt her in the cruelest way and the ruins of something that was the bedrock of her coming of age. key lines: “who’s gonna stop us from waltzing back into rekindled flames if we know the steps anyway?” “you low down boy, you stand up guy…you told me I was the love of your life. you said I’m the love of your life, about a million times” “when your impressionist paintings of heaven turned out to be fake, well, you took me to hell too” “I’m combing through the braids of lies”

“I Can Do It With a Broken Heart”—this is a Lois song! just generally her ethos. “I was grinning like I’m winning!”

“The Alchemy”—this one reminds me of the homecoming episode because it’s about Clark returning to who he is (and also a little bit about football)

“The Black Dog”—“old habits die screaming” is very Clark and Lana, and Lifehouse’s “Everything” is the song that was intertwined in the tragic fabric of their dreaming.

“imgonnagetyouback”—the confidence of this has to be Lois, probably in one of those early moments where Clark accidentally stood her up and she’s indignant. “I can take the upper hand and touch your body, flip the script and leave you like a dumb house party, or I might just love you til the end”

“The Albatross”—okay this one to me is about Chloe!! about her need for the truth being this dangerous destructive thing that mows down whoever is in its path, but then at the decisive moment she turns and uses her powers to shelter. “the devil that you know looks now more like an angel” 

“Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus”—brain rot again. it’s Lana and Lex. reminds me of the scene where she’s surveilling him and he’s looking piningly at their wedding portrait. “if you wanna break my cold, cold heart just say I loved you the way that you were. If you wanna tear my world apart just say you’ve always wondered”

So High School—if it’s anybody I think it’s Chloe and Jimmy?? it’s giving ring pop proposal. 

I Hate It Here—it’s Lex!!!!!! Lex has had a TERRIBLE experience with life and so he DOES go to lunar valleys in his mind. (unfortunately for him the lunar valleys are real and he’s convinced that everyone there is trying to kill him)

I Look In People’s Windows—it’s Clark spying on Lois in his “I have to distance myself from humanity” era, but it’s also very much Lois looking at his empty desk missing him. “what if your eyes looked up and met mine one more time?”

The Prophecy—it’s Lois!!!! “I don’t want to be alone anymore”! “I thought for a moment that someone needed me”!! “please let it once be me”!!!!

You don’t have to post this because I think the K-army wanted to keep it private? I don’t see how it’s possible because of the number of people who have now liked/quoted this anyway. I don’t have an opinion on it per se just that the scratch on Jimin’s arm may really have been Bam. This shows that Bam is close to Jimin or important enough to Jimin that Jungkook brought him back to see Jimin off/see Jimin before his travels. It also shows that Jikook spend time together, low key as it may be.

Hi anon.

Welp. I slept for a few hours and woke up to shambles lol

Ah I'm trying to get screenshots of things but nothing exists anymore 🙃 If anyone has actual receipts, send them my way so I can add them here, please :)

This will have to do for now:

So Jk could have been mentioning Bam and Jimin or the angle of the moodlight and Jimin or anything...and Jimin.

Edited to add the following:

Whatever the real translation is, Jimin hyung is sprinkled in there somewhere just loud enough so we can hear it.

I will think this for the rest of my life, Jungkook is a walking spoiler and is dying to spill. He did it on purpose, in my opinion. It's funny how he looks around to make sure there is nothing incriminating but he's the one that ends up spilling too much lol

And even if he wasn't talking about Bam, it's possible that Bam still scratched Jimin. If Jikook is spending time together and Bam is spending time with Jk, then let Jimin spend time with Bam too!

These are all wonderful possibilities, anon.

ps. Jk spills and Jimin tries to keep everything hush hush.

Look at how he rolls up his sleeves but stops rolling up the arm that we all theorize Bam scratched.

Jimin knows, you all. He knows!

WAIT WAIT WAIT AUTHOR HOLD ON!!! THAT MISTLETOE ASK- *SQUEEALS*

BUT WHAT IF INSTEAD OF THE MC WHAT IF IT'S K AND NOAH GOT CAUGHT TOGETHER UNDER THERE?!?!?!??? Poly route and almost BUT NOT QUITE in a relationship yet??👀👀👀 (Also, mc standing in the side/corner silently watching what would happen next but hoping their pressence won't stop them from doing whatever they gonna do)

Noah would be extremely smug on the outside, but they’re dying of a mix of anticipation and low-key fear on the inside. K would be openly horrified lol, but also hella flustered which they try to cover up as disgust.

Reese and Cody (and Luisa who is the real reason they won’t move) would be gatekeeping them, refusing to let them move until they kiss. A would be with MC, trying not to laugh at this situation.

Eventually, K would sigh and ask Noah if they could kiss them, to which Noah immediately says yes. K would yank Noah down and kiss them hard on the lips, shocking the life out of Noah who freezes briefly before reciprocating very enthusiastically. When they pulled away, Noah would be grinning and K would be bright red and glaring.

K: was that good enough?

Noah: it was awesome.

K: I wasn’t asking you.

Reese: I mean I kind of thought you’d just kiss them on the cheek.

Cody: definitely wasn’t expecting the passionate lip lock, X.

Reese: wow you must really like Noah.

Noah: if you wanted to kiss me, you could have just asked.

K: all of you, die.

[mangoisms]

ok here are my current thoughts on ck and tim’s silly goose-ness and steph’s very low tolerance to it

aka an excuse to introspect on their past relationship and also my first ever attempt to write a canon character’s pov which might or might not be good so! You Have Been Warned

(also excuse any typos LOL)

“What do you think you’re doing?”

A slow blink. “Updating Redbird’s security protocols?”

The garage of Tim’s townhouse smells sharply of oil and rubber. But he isn’t elbow-deep in the engine today, just seated off to the side, laptop perched on his lap and hooked up to its system. ‘Updating’ it. God knows why. The Redbird’s security protocols are just as stringent as the Batmobile’s.

Jason once regaled them with his plan, way back when, to blow it up. Bruce included. And how he went about it.

“It’s got safeguards like crazy, right? Even when it’s idle or shut down. Come up to it, fire a gun, launch a missile—doesn’t matter. Not gonna touch it before the security protocols kick in. It can sense you on thermal, air currents, video recognition, all of it.”

“So, how’d you get past it?”

“SEAL-grade wetsuit. Invisible to thermal with reflection fibers that play hell with video. But the biggest thing? Going slow. And I mean slow. Like five seconds per inch slow.”

The insane attention to detail and paranoia runs in the family, obviously.

Tim had sat in for that. Stephanie remembers the look on his face. Begrudging respect, combined with a familiar twitchiness that told her he was absolutely dying to run out and start updating his stuff.

Question everything. That’s what Bruce says.

Tim tries to separate himself from it. He really does. It gets tiring, exhausting, to live like that. But old habits die hard and his big brain precedes him sometimes. Wondering at the possibilities, at the million-in-one scenarios.

Ordinarily, Stephanie has more sympathy for him. Really. But right now, after your phone call about his little visit to Circle K…

She’s pissed.

“Don’t play dumb,” she says, crossing her arms tightly over her chest.

“What is it that I’m playing dumb about?” he asks, averting his attention back to his laptop, keys clacking quickly, pausing momentarily as he takes a swig of Red Bull.

She tells him.

At the sound of your name, he stops.

But now that she’s started, she can’t stop. “Visiting her? As Red Robin? What are you thinking, Tim?”

The clack of keys resumes. The set of his gaze on the laptop screen is very intentional now. Avoiding her.

“It’s nothing, Steph,” he says and she almost believes it. But she knows him, so she doesn’t. “It’s harmless.”

“So, why won’t you hang out with us? Her? Because I assume you’re also avoiding her individually.”

A little sigh. Impatient. “I’m not avoiding her. I really was busy. Have been busy. You know how the heat messes with the city.”

It’s the excuse that bothers Stephanie.

Tim is making some kind of choice here. Choosing to favor Red Robin over himself, over Tim Drake, and it makes no sense. Red Robin isn’t your best friend. He isn’t even your favorite vigilante. (Black Canary is. She agrees, though it would be nice for Spoiler to get some spotlight but that is neither here nor there.)

You know who is your best friend? (One of them, anyway.)

Tim freakin’ Drake.

Stephanie knows why he’s avoiding you all of a sudden. The connection will be too easy to make. It’s why she—as Spoiler—keeps her distance. Tucks away her hair, hides her face even more, when she and Cass visit Circle K.

Even though! They had talked about telling you. Stephanie wanted to tell you so badly. You know who her father is. Was. You know how her mom used to be like. You know everything and you never once judged. You were, to be sure, a bit wary of them—the vigilantes—but most were. You wouldn’t turn them away if you knew.

If there is anything Stephanie knows, it is that.

But then she went away to Metropolis for a week and a half and suddenly, he’s visiting you as Red Robin. And he’s not trying to ease you into it, not trying to help you latch onto some clues, to make it easier—because they’d discussed that, too!—he’s doing it because… Well, she doesn’t really know. But there is a reason. She knows that much. A big reason.

It makes no sense to her, considering his feelings. Complicates things unnecessarily. Especially with how he’s avoiding you because of it, because he apparently got cold feet on telling you the truth.

And it’s the excuse… it’s the excuse that pisses her off.

Their relationship, back when they were kids, had some questionable origins. It did. Stephanie did things she wasn’t proud of. He did things he wasn’t proud of. It was messy. She tries not to kick herself about it—about being a silly girl in love, awed at the attention of a boy like Robin, knowing he was dating a girl (Ariana Dzerchenko, her name was, she would later find on) and making moves on him despite that, moves that he always, always went along with. Like two magnets that couldn’t help but fall together.

Don’t get her wrong! The blame is not solely on her. It’s on him, too. She shouldn’t have pushed. He shouldn’t have went along with it, knowing he had a girlfriend, too. He shouldn’t have held his knowledge of her identity over her head the way he did. He isn’t mean-spirited at heart but he had an advantage over her. He knew she was Stephanie Brown. She knew him only as Robin and nothing else. Not until later on that would change and that… that was another mess entirely.

But they were dumb and young. Stephanie tries not to hold it against herself. They know better now. She knows better now. Knows what she deserves.

But this feels too close to him crossing that line.

No, he has crossed that line.

Given one persona up for another.

Approaching you as Red Robin, while you know nothing of him, and doing god knows what…

Someone is going to get hurt.

Last time, it was him. The circumstances, Bruce’s unceremonious reveal of his identity to her—a mistake, an egregious overstep—it all culminated in Tim feeling betrayed. Betrayed that Bruce would reveal that to her without Tim’s say so, without even asking him if he was okay with her knowing. Betrayed that Stephanie went along with it.

This time?

Stephanie feels it in her bones.

The person who is going to get hurt is you.

You, clueless about these lives they lead, clueless as Tim monopolizes your time as Red Robin, all the while you have no idea it’s him. You, her best friend. Stephanie loves you to the end of the universe.

She doesn’t want to see you hurt.

The mere thought of it, of the potential fallout, leaves a sick feeling in the pit of her stomach.

“Steph. Steph, it’s fine.”

She blinks, coming back to herself. Tim is standing in front of her now, dark brows knitted together, blue eyes intent on her face. Concerned.

“You’re lying to her.”

“We’ve been lying to her.”

“Not like this,” she says quietly. “Not this way. You’re… This is too much, Tim. I don’t understand why you’re doing this. What happened?”

“Nothing,” he says. For what it’s worth, to anyone else, it sounds believable. But like she said. Stephanie knows him. For better or for worse.

And on that end, she also knows he is not going to budge. No matter how much Stephanie wants to drill this into him, grab him by the shoulders and make her point. Once he’s made a decision, he commits.

Or more like he’s dug himself into this grave and he doesn’t (can’t?) want to get out.

“This is a mistake,” she says. “And you know it. I just hope you actually try to fix it sooner rather than later. Because if you break her heart, I’m going to break something of yours.”

Stephanie loves Tim. He’s a great friend. They’ve had their ups and downs—even discounting their relationship—but they’re solid. They are.

But she loves you, too. So much so it sometimes feels like she’s going to burst with it. She’s never had something like that, like this, and in the end, she doesn’t want to choose, but Tim knows better. And because he knows better, you are her first priority.

Even worse, he doesn’t seem bothered by the threat. Relieved, if anything.

“I’m counting on it, Steph.”

Which is so unfair in so many ways (fix it, she wants to yell, don’t rely on me to come clean up when shit hits the fan—do it yourself!) but she’s had enough of this conversation and all the ways this can go wrong.

Maybe he will turn around. Maybe. Maybe, maybe, maybe.

But she doesn’t think so. He won’t. Not until the consequences of this, of his lies, of his excuses, come hit him in the face.

She wishes it weren’t like that—knowing what it will result in.

But some things you just can’t change.

She knows better with Tim.

She really, really does.

#wrote this last night directly in post #my phone autocorrects her to hee. for some reason. god knows why. genuinely #so if there’s any mistakes. i didn’t edit it too much or read too closely #it was just a silly little thought that ended up turning out a pretty good scene #i’m not sure if i’ll put this somewhere on ao3. maybe

Omggg! If K wears an emerald tiara I WOULD DIE! Am dying to see her in a tiara which isn’t fully diamonds since ages! But knowing her, she wouldn’t want to overshadow the bride etc so will opt for a low-key tiara I suppose.

If she doesn’t wear a tiara & am just getting so excited, man, that would be disappointing.

If not Emerald, then ruby?? Or the pearl lovers knot. Either way I will be happy because tiaras mean… GOWNS.

I am so excited to see our princess in a gown 😭

[oblitum]

I think imma keep all my blogs low key for a lil while??? And just... Write what I write when I write it and when I'm in the mood. That does mean threads with friends/people I'm comfortable with are gonna get replied to 10x quicker.

My brain is a dick recently and the ANXIETY is insane. The imposter syndrome is sky high. And I hate feeling shitty about my muses and my writing so I'm prioritising threads with people I write with frequently and feel comfortable with. The people who are always super excited to write with me.

I'm still gonna write with other people too just slower for the time being! For the sake of my sanity. Writing should be fun and currently it's just giving me anxiety even when I'm excited for shit. The whole 'not wanting to be perceived' is def part of it too 😅 don't ask me why my brain does this bc idk since at the same time I've been dying to write for the past week.

Big sigh. I'm also just... Getting much more responsibility at work recently and I have my final exam coming up in June too that's a pretty big deal! If I pass I go on the register and become officially qualified!!!! After four years 🥺 so yeah also just alot of pressure ooc rn which may be contributing.

Pls be patient with me. Ily all. K. Bye.

The biggest compliment Astra has gotten this whole game. Gale compared her to his magical cat. VICTORY.

I dyed her camp clothes. :3

Guardian and Astarion and mild Karlach SPOILERS below!

Nothing says a playthrough is going well than being worshipped by dancing mushrooms~

Karlach, I love you.

Welp, that... didn't go as planned. Oof.

HIS SLUTTY ROBE IS BACK, YA'LL!!!!

NUUUUU, IT'S OKAY. HAVE HUGS. ASTRA GIVES GOOD HUGS.

Gods, I really made the Guardian too pretty. Curses. A trap of my own design. Quite literally.

MAMA K!!!!!!! She's always looking out for Astra, oh my heart.

Karlach gets a hug, too!!!! She deserves it.

Astarion low key simping over Karlach, here, lol. Later, though, I went to talk to him in camp, he was talking about how he felt he and Astra were "two similar souls traveling together" and proceeded to call her "naive". Aslkjfldkjfldkjfld. Rude. When asked why, he just went-

I'm, like, ninety percent certain this is one of those "make sure you don't agree to everything your favorite says because a bad ending might be waiting for you" conversations.

HELP, THIS IS HILIARIOUS.

Oh my gods. I think it's happening.

THE HUG SCENE IS HAPPENING, YA'LL.

MAN STRAIGHT UP WENT, "I think you're great, but a little too good hearted" to "Fuck, I'm in actually love with you" in the timespan of two long rests.

It Was Okay - Chapter 7

Ao3 | FFN

Previous Chapter | Next Chapter

First Chapter

Kiba effortlessly carried Hinata back to her unit, marching her through the village. It was a quiet night, so they only brought on the attention of some drunks sitting outside who hooted at them. He fumbled in his pocket for the key to her place, then clumsily forced her door open, not much grace in his movements. He carried her in and pushed the door shut with his foot, then made short work of capturing her lips in his own. She gasped in surprise and he wondered if he would ever get tired of that.

He carried her to her bed and fell on top of her, elbow next to her head as he pulled one of her calfs around his waist. Her movements dared him to the next step, desperate for her, but she could tell he was restraining. She reached her hand up to massage that area behind his ear while also pulling him down into a kiss. He groaned into her mouth, fingers tightening around her thigh as hers worked through his hair. She let a giggle escape between them as he nestled himself between her legs, his free hand pushing the strands of hair from her face before raising to meet her eyes. He smiled down at her, taking in her features. Her low hanging eyelids, rosy cheeks, kiss bruised lips. "You're so fucking gorgeous, Hina."

"Kiba," she breathed, twirling a lock of his hair in her fingers. His grip tightened when he felt her hips start to rock upwards into him, grinding against him, eyes widening a bit.

"Hinata?" He choked out, eyes darting between her eyes and her lower half. He watched her bite her lower lip, and he wished it was his lip in her teeth.

"I-I-" she stuttered between shaky breaths, his attention fully hers, "love...you, K-Kiba..."

Kiba felt like he might black out from lack of air.

"Please," she squeaked out, eyes scanning his face, "make love to me?"

There it was. Kiba could have died happy right there just having heard her say those words. To him.

In what felt like two seconds, he had her stripped bare, having to restrain himself from demolishing her clothes. Her gasps and giggles breathed life into him as he worked off his clothing, unsure of whether his consciousness was even present. All he could focus on was the way she smelled. Like sake and lilac and dopamine. And arousal. And as he bared himself to her, her eyes plunged down. He rubbed the back of his head, uncharacteristically feeling self-conscious. Even if Hinata found absolutely nothing for him to feel self-conscious about. He pushed through and crawled back over her, cupping her cheek with his hand.

"Are you sure?" He ran his thumb against her lips, dying to hear the word yes. She placed a kiss on his thumb before nodding.

"I’m sure, Kiba."

His heart felt like it was in his throat. He never thought he'd get this far, and now that he was here, he tripped over his own actions. He clumsily reached down between her legs while simultaneously locking her lips with his. Her hands returned to his head, one still stroking his weak spot and the other wrapped around his neck. As he stroked her clit, eliciting those beautiful moans, a thought dawned on him. A thought that made him freeze.

"Kiba?" She breathed, wiggling underneath him with need. He cleared his throat, pulling his face away from hers.

"I-I just realized I don't have…a condom." He stumbled over his words, his voice almost a whine. She blushed once more, shifting her eyes before pulling him back in for another kiss. She trailed her kisses from his lips to his cheek, next to his ear.

She whispered, "please, Kiba, I want you."

Fuck.

“Hinata…w-we can’t-“ It was so, so, so incredibly difficult to push those words out. Goddamnit, did she even understand what she was doing to him? Her whine caught in her throat and he let out a frustrated groan as he pushed off of her, falling onto his back. She laid still and guilt washed over him, so he slid his fingers inbetween hers and clutched. “I wouldn’t forgive myself for doing that to you.”

“B-but-“ she choked out, lifting herself to meet his eyes “-I want to, Kiba. You wouldn’t be…doing anything, I didn’t want…” He smirked at her look of sadness, causing her to return with a confused look. He reached out to brush his knuckles against her cheek.

“We’ve been drinking, sweetheart.”

She let out a sigh of longing. He was right.

“You know how bad I want this, Hina?” He slid his free hand around her waist, pulling her close. She rested her head on his bare chest, pressing her cheek against his pectoral. “Really goddamn bad. But I want it to be right, you know?”

“Yes…” She breathed out, pressing her the side of her nose into his sternum. He stroked her face mindlessly while he thought.

A lot of guys probably thought he was batshit, having this goddess wrapped around him, both naked, begging him. But all he could think of was the regret she was destined to feel if she did indeed go through with this. Of course he wanted it. Unprotected sex was a fever dream he could only indulge in with her in his fantasies, until he knew she was completely serious about the relationship. He couldn’t do it, not to her especially.

“You…you didn’t say it back…” Hinata’s worried voice rung him from his thoughts. He glanced at her, but she didn’t look up to meet it. He tilted his head. “I told you…I love you…” His chest tightened at the words. Shit.

“I love you, of course-“ Kiba tried in vain to correct himself, suddenly feeling empty as she lifted from him. He frowned at her reaction, face pale and lips down turned, ever so slightly. “I’m sorry-I was in the heat of the moment.” He scrambled to his knees and grabbed her wrist before she could turn away anymore. Then he quickly slid his hands to cup her cheeks and force her eyes on him. He mustered every bit of sincerity he had as he held her gaze. “I fucking love you, Hinata. I don’t know how to make that more clear.”

She gulped as she stared up at him, softening slightly. Her confidence was on thin ice and he could tell. He hated himself for putting them in this predicament.

“I fucking love you so much it hurts, Hinata.” He clutched her cheeks just a tad harder, then started caressing circles with his thumbs. She let her eyes drift closed at his touch. “I’ve never-ever-fucking ever loved anyone more than I’ve loved you. And I’ve loved you a long time.” He sighed a breath of relief when she relaxed into his touch, then pulled her into his chest. “When we were 15, I admitted it to myself. I admitted to myself that you were it. And if it wasn’t going to be you, it wasn’t going to be anyone.”

“Kiba?” She asked softly at his words, eyes raising to his chin.

“It sounds ridiculous, I know.” He began stuttering, feeling vulnerable. The sake probably wasn’t helping. “But when Inuzuka identify a mate, it…it’s just, that’s it. That’s who it is. I would go to the ends of this planet for you. No matter where you go, I’d follow. No matter what you say, I’d stay. Even when you’re sick of me, I’ll never be sick of you.” She swallowed hard at his confession, but it was a train that wouldn’t stop now. “Y-you’re my mate, Hinata. That doesn’t mean you have to stay. But it means I do. And I will, forever.”

Her silence was like a hot knife to the heart. He couldn’t read her, his sense of smell horribly dampened by alcohol and emotion. Then she lifted her head, and her beautiful orbs met his and she leaned up to kiss him once more. And he relaxed. When she pulled away, a smile was on her lips. “That’s…beautiful, Kiba.”

“Hmph.” He muttered, dipping in to bring her in for another kiss. He knew he wasn’t usually one to have a way with words, but whatever just came out, had to come out. When he pulled away, he scanned her face and softened at her look of happiness. “Let’s get some rest, huh?”

“Like this?” She giggled, looking down at themselves. He grinned and pulled her under the covers, wordlessly wrapping himself around her.

-

“Don’t go.”                                                

“You know I have to.”

“Do I?”

“Yes, my love.”

His ears burned as those sweet words graced his ears. His grip tightened. “Talking like that doesn’t help.”

“I’m sorry.”

“I wish you wouldn’t be.”

Her gentle sigh tickled his ear and he breathed her in once more. They sat in the early morning light on her couch, she on his lap and him with his entire torso wrapped around her. He was having a little fit of sorts at the idea of her going away, feeling possessive. He always worried about her when she went on missions without him, but it was so much tougher this time around. Not only was he worried, he was just saddened by the thought of not having her around. The way she clung to him had him hoping she felt the same way. So he spent the morning savoring her in anyway he could.

He brushed his lips along her collarbone and massaged her hips with his fingertips. They were so soft and supple, curvy and perfect for childbearing. He knew it was hormones guiding his thinking, but after her begging last night, he couldn’t shake the idea of Hinata domestically. He knew she would be the perfect mother, and their children would be the most gorgeous, wild, powerful shinobi. Her byakugan and his ninken, gentle fist and fang over fang. It was a beautiful thought, and it made it all the harder to let her go.

“Hina…” he whispered against her neck.

“Hmm?”

“Can we…it feels silly to say out loud,” he chuckled, nuzzling closer into her. She rubbed her fingertips against his weak spot, and he hummed in contentment, “can I call you mine?”

“Of course,” she whispered back, her gentle voice in his ear. He hummed and tightened his grip again.

“So it’s okay if…people know?”

“Oh-y-yes-“ she stuttered, pulling his face closer into her. He could have melted.

“Fine, you can go.” He teased, digging his fingertips into her skin. He loved the way she squirmed under his grip. Then he loosened her, letting her pull away a bit. He caught her gaze and nudged her nose with his own. “Only if you promise not to get hurt and come home to me, got it?”

“Come home to you…” she repeated in a whisper, her cheeks tightening with a smile. “I promise.”

-

Kiba was up and down at the same time, proudly walking through the village with his arm around Hinata, but only to walk her to the entrance to meet with Ino and Shikamaru and leave for who knows how long. Shino and Akamaru were with them as well to see her off. Usually, they walked as a trio, interlaced to some degree. Today, Shino was giving them space to act like a couple. Shino was genuinely content, even if that was not evident from his facial expressions. When they got to the gate, they found Ino and Shikamaru awaiting her.

“So is this a thing now?” Shikamaru lowered his eyes at the two, and Kiba grinned.

“Sure is, that’s my cute girlfriend.” Kiba pulled his hands behind his head, looking smug as Hinata blushed at the compliment. He snickered.

“Cute.” Ino smirked, arms folded. Hinata closed in, the red on her cheeks deepening at all the attention they were receiving.

“Safe travels, Hinata.” Shino nodded towards her. Kiba's heart sank at the words; it was time.

“Ready?” Shikamaru gestured towards the forest. Hinata nodded, turning to look at Kiba. He swooped her up into his arms in a swift motion, shamelessly pulling her in for a kiss in front of everyone. She gasped, instinctively wrapping herself around him, eliciting a gag from Shikamaru. “Seriously?”

“Oh wow!” Ino laughed, clapping her hands together with a mischievous grin on her face.

“Okay, okay, come on.” Shikamaru snapped his fingers. Hinata tapped Kiba’s shoulder blade, causing him to let out a quiet growl before releasing her.

“Anything happens to her-“ Kiba shot both Shikamaru and Ino a warning glare as he slipped his hands from Hinata.

“She can handle herself, Kiba!” Shikamaru snapped with an eyeroll, beginning to walk away.

“Don’t you worry.” Ino winked, following after Shikamaru. Akamaru gave Hinata a whine as he nuzzled his nose in her hand. She giggled and crouched down, scratching behind his ears.

“Take care of Kiba, okay?” She beamed down at the pup, giving him one last pat. Kiba chuckled as she raised to her feet. She planted one more kiss on his cheek before waving. “I’ll see you all soon!”

Kiba watched longingly as she hopped away to catch up with her temporary team, crossing his arms with a pout. Shino bumped his elbow gently into Kiba’s as Hinata’s figure faded. He huffed a sigh, turning to join Shino and Akamaru.

“Hinata’s strong, Kiba,” Shino lectured, “she’ll be fine.”

“I know,” Kiba grumbled, kicking his feet.

“Let’s meet with Tenten at the Hokage’s tower.”

“Yeah, alright.”

Cyberpunk Fashion.! PT 1

What is Cyberpunk Fashion?

Setting the Scene

A world overrun by technology and big corporations

People in the world are apathetic and feel there is basically nothing they can do 

The environment is dying, therefore the people must dress a certain way to adapt to the environment

The Word Itself

Cyberpunk is a compound of cybernetics and punk

According to Google definitions…

Cybernetics: The science of communications and automatic control systems in both machines and living things

Punk: A loud, fast-moving, and aggressive form of rock music, popular in the late 1970s and early 1980s; a worthless person; anti-culture

Cyberpunk: Genre of science fiction set in a lawless subculture of an oppressive society dominated by computer technology

Above everything, cyberpunk is a lifestyle that blends a combination of “high tech, low life” with a deep understanding of social fabric backdoors. 

Fashion and aesthetic depicts humans living in an urban dystopian future of highly advanced developments in science and technology

History // General Inspiration

The origin of the movement is rooted in scientific findings and scientific fiction that first developed in the 60s and 70s

Blade Runner (Film): 1982 film directed by Ridley Scott. It focuses on an ex-cop turned private detective in 2019 named Rick Deckard, who is called back into service to hunt down human-looking robots called “replicants”. 

Movie inspired by Phillip K Dick’s novel “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?”

The movie itself created the visual look, atmosphere and world of cyberpunk.

Created a world with the structure of a reality we are entangled with, but has blaring signs of an impending doom of artificial intelligence and technology.

Akira (Film): 1990 anime film about Tetsuo, a teenager who had gone through a difficult childhood and is the victim of experiments aimed at developing the psychic abilities that lie dormant in all of us. He is endowed with a power that he himself cannot imagine, and decides to go to war against the world that has oppressed him. 

The new digital world with rapid urbanization causes these theories of a potential dystopian future

Cyberpunk fashion becomes both commentary and critique of these theories

The Clothes

Functionality, technology, and a theme of “dystopia” is key to understanding how to dress cyberpunk — “high tech, low life”

Colors Palette: neon colors entwined with dark, earth tones

Also known as techwear: urban apparel that uses high-quality fabrics and technical detailing to create a product that can stand up to the elements

The “Cyberpunk” aesthetic must be apparent and obvious. Especially since techwear is very popular and worn in a lot of different ways, a point must be made to differentiate those who are actively trying to dress cyberpunk versus those who are just buying into the techwear trends.

Some Examples

Rick Owens: Paris based designer known for a largely noir, gray and ice-hued collection with deployment of pentagram motifs. His aesthetic is also known for being “rapturously anti-establishment”. He is one of the leading designers in the aesthetic that is known as “avant apocalypse”: a revolution of subversion, neutral maximalism, deconstructed pieces, asymmetry, wearing clothes the wrong way. Very inaccessible.

Arc’teryx: Canadian outdoor clothing and sporting goods company founded by Dave Lane and Jeremy Guard in 1989. Sells products related to climbing, skiing, snowboarding, backpacking, and hiking-related activities.

YEEZY: Created by Kanye West, who was heavily inspired by the film Akira. He relies heavily on earth tones and comes to the fashion industry with an idea of a uniformed code. 

Dingyun Zhang: Born in Beijing. Rising designer out of Central Saint Martins. Worked for YEEZY. Known for his “otherworldly” winter wear. His newest collection of winter wear (collabed with Moncler Genius) has hyperbolic, cartoonish silhouettes and are inspired by the colors and contours of post-apocalyptic underwater life. 

“Perhaps I’ll start releasing daily functional pieces through a digital space”

“For instance, utilizing my bonding techniques to make a drainage structure on the coat, helping the downward flow of water off the wearer’s body.”

Pieces from Spring 2022 shown below

Hyein Seo: South Korean designer/label known for its influence on today’s streetwear. Released technical wares that defy convention and traditional codes of dress. Focused on a monochrome palette for the most part. Outerwear includes an array of complicated paneling, exaggerated shapes, obscuring hoods and engineered textiles to combat the elements.

Y-3 by Adidas: collaborative brand between Adidas and designer Yojhi Yamamoto. Known for their high end reinterpretations of adidas silhouettes. A pioneer of breaking down the boundaries between fashion and sport. Have had collaborations with Virgin galactic to produce a full range of space apparel.

Rei Kawakubo: Known for going against the system and being “anti-fashion”, she founded Commes des Garcons as well as Dover Street Market. She was at first known for her dark, oversized, and asymmetrical garments.

Further Questions

What does cyberpunk clothing say about today’s society in terms of class?

Does cyberpunk better society in terms of gender or class or does it entrap us further?

What is cyberpunk clothing trying to warn us of?

Does the cross between high fashion brands and cyberpunk clothing make sense?

Does hypocrisy lie in this?

What is the wider influence of this subculture?

Safeplace Faction Masterlist + Info

Safeplace Faction (temp name until I think of something cool yaya)

Info - Members - Locations

Info

“Everyone needs a place to rest sometimes.”

The Safeplace Faction governs over an area called “The Safe Zone.” In this area, no “violence” is allowed within reason (basically no violence with the intent to seriously harm or kill someone - scuffles are fine).

The members consist of a large variety of people but is relatively small in numbers due to the nature of the program. Too many people means too many uncontrollable variables. Every member and visitor is loyal to the Masters; if found otherwise, they are promptly stripped of their status and banished.

Not a strict system all considered. Just don’t break the key rule of trying to kill someone and you’ll be fine.

Visitors are only allowed to stay a week at a time. It is fine for visitors to visit every day but there are only so many rooms and so many supplies so staying is limited.

Visits are monitored through IDs distributed by the main building. You cannot enter the area without one. Counterfeits are nearly impossible to make due to the magic engravings individual to each one.

Once a month has passed, an individual can stay for another full week.

Big on no ask policies - basically don’t ask why someone is seeking refuge here, everyone has their tough times. However if they want to talk then by all means try lending them an ear.

Frowned upon to ask.

The territory is entirely neutral - any “political” campaigns will be promptly shut down.

Somewhat of a prejudice against the military but never really said aloud. (Many visitors come from military related trauma)
