touch and go: ch 1
A/N: so having a bunch of wips means you ignore them and post something new, right? anyway I’ve had this idea for an origins and last life crossover superhero au fic for a while now, and in a burst of inspiration i wrote it! well, two chapters of it. the second chapter you’ll probably get in a week or maybe sooner depending on my patience (and how much of this i manage to write before i lose steam). also this fic believes in he/they scott and she/her ranboo supremacy :D (their origins characters can fit so much gender in them) anyway, enjoy!
Warnings: violence, injury, moral dilemmas
Summary: Jimmy is just trying to live a peaceful life in Orilast City. However once he discovers he has superpowers, his whole life is thrown into chaos when powerful (and therefore dangerous) people want to get him on their side and use him for his powers. Meanwhile Scott is an up-and-coming hero from the city's famed Hero Alliance. But when an encounter with an unpredictable new super turns into a media uproar, his life becomes far more complicated as they navigate what it truly means to be a hero.
AO3 Link - Tumblr Masterpost
-
Jimmy always joked that his superpower was being really, really unlucky. Which definitely applied to this exact moment, as he was currently hurtling towards the ground at an alarming speed.
It had just been an ordinary day. He nearly spilled hot coffee all over himself on the daily coffee run for the office. Then he tried his best to sort through his paperwork, but he ended up dropping the folder and sent papers flying everywhere. And then when he finally made some headway on getting things organized and starting on what he was supposed to be working on, the building shook with the impact of a nearby hero and villain fight. His coworkers did the smart thing and ran- but Jimmy? Well, curiosity killed the cat for a reason.
So here he was, falling to the ground after another rumble had shaken the building, causing Jimmy to lose his balance and tumble out of a shattered window. Figures this is how he would go.
But then there was a streak of purple and blue light, and he was cradled against someone's chest. The world seemed to come to a standstill as Jimmy’s soft brown eyes met purple ones swirling with galaxies. Their hair was purple too, bits of lights like twinkling stars clinging to the strands. Stars dotted the stranger's cheeks like freckles, and a charming grin spread over their face.
And then they were plummeting to the ground again. A scream ripped from Jimmy’s throat as he clung tight to the stranger. But then they landed, the stranger landing on their feet and sending cracks spiderwebbing across the sidewalk with the impact.
"Take it easy, you’re safe now," the stranger said, before gently depositing Jimmy onto the ground. Jimmy finally got a good look at the rest of the stranger. Galaxies swirled along their skin, at least from their fingertips to their forearms. They wore a light blue overcoat with gold trim with a white shirt tucked into black pants, as well as a gold sash around their waist.
"Who are you?" Jimmy got out, not recognizing him as one of Orilast City's heroes.
"Call me Starboy," he said with another dazzling grin. With that, he leapt into the air with a burst of starlight, going back into the fray.
Jimmy watched with awe as Starboy fought alongside some more familiar faces that Jimmy knew- Crowfather, the Inch, Warp, and Blazeboy- against the feared Southlanders. The Southlanders were a dangerous ragtag group of rogues whose members shifted a bit, sometimes allying with the equally dangerous Fairy Fort, but the usual four were there: Pyroshadow, Mirage, the Detonator, and Scarletwing. Pyroshadow was a demon creature from another realm who excelled with technological devices as well as fire and shadow magic. Mirage could slip in and out of reality, showing up in one place only to vanish and appear in another. The Detonator could create explosives out of anything he touched. And their leader- Scarletwing- well, frankly he just seemed to be a guy with bright red parrot wings. But everyone feared him anyway.
Starboy was currently locked in combat with the dreaded Scarletwing. The villain was deft, gracefully swooping out of the way of Starboy’s blasts. It soon became apparent that the effort of keeping up the barrage was tiring Starboy out- and Scarletwing realized this with a wicked grin. He abruptly darted forward, arms wrapping around Starboy’s waist as he dived down, driving both of them through the crumbling wall of the very office building Starboy had just saved Jimmy from.
Scarletwing rose from the rubble. Starboy didn't. A satisfied grin broke out over Scarletwing's face, and he poised to strike a final blow-
"No!" Jimmy shouted, hand outstretched- and a burst of blue light hit Scarletwing right in the shoulder. The villain flew, hitting the rubble with a sickening thump. Jimmy stared at his hand in shock.
"Ugh, another starborne?" an irritated voice said behind him, paired with a hand on his shoulder. Jimmy whirled around to see Warp, jostling her hand from his shoulder as he did so.
"What- but I'm not a- what did you call me?" Jimmy frowned, confused. Hadn't his rescuer referred to himself as "Starboy" not "Starborne?"
Before Warp got a chance to answer, a chunk of rubble came hurtling towards them. There wasn't time to move or even scream, and Jimmy squeezed his eyes shut and braced for the inevitable…
But nothing came. Jimmy slowly opened his eyes, and found himself standing a few feet away from the rubble. Warp was stood on the other side of it, her mouth dropped open in shock.
"How did you- you teleport?! But that's my thing!" Warp whined, stomping her foot a little.
Suddenly, Warp's eyes widened and her pouty demeanor vanished into concern as her gaze locked on something behind Jimmy. Someone grabbed him from behind, an iron grip on his arms.
"Neat trick you pulled- maybe we should chat about that," a voice said gruffly- Mirage. Jimmy squirmed in his grip, panic coursing through his veins. He didn't know what was going on, he just wanted to go home-
And then energy flooded into Jimmy. He heard a sharp gasp from Mirage, his grip loosening- and Jimmy’s world suddenly tilted into light and color, flowing past him in an endless stream- until everything went dark.
-
Jimmy woke up in his sister's living room. Which was strange, because he didn't remember spending the night at Lizzie’s, nor did he remember doing so on the floor as opposed to the couch.
Then Jimmy registered the dust from the building rubble in his hair, as well as Lizzie and her husband, Joel, looking down at him with concern. Jimmy squeezed his eyes shut again with a groan, hoping that this was a dream.
“Oh no you don’t- Jimmy, what happened? How are you in my living room?!” Lizzie demanded, grabbing Jimmy by the shoulders and shaking him a little. Jimmy groggily opened his eyes, giving a defeated sigh. Not a dream, then.
“You think I know?! One minute I’m in the middle of a fight between Crowfather’s team and the Southlanders, and the next I woke up here!” Jimmy replied, voice a little frantic.
“You were in a fight?!” Lizzie asked, voice shrill. Joel soothingly patted her arm, noticing Jimmy’s wince at her tone.
“Well, I wasn’t exactly in the fight. It just sorta crashed into the office. And then I fell from the building- but I was saved by some new hero, Starboy…” Jimmy trailed off, thinking about the purple-haired hero, and how he sparkled and shimmered in the light- and then he remembered how he had gotten taken down by Scarletwing, and Jimmy felt sick. He had no idea if Starboy survived or not.
“Why’d you say his name like that?” Joel asked, squinting a bit at Jimmy. He flushed a little bit, and a wicked grin spread over Joel’s face.
“Don’t look at me like that! He just saved me, that’s all. I dunno if he’s even alive, he took a pretty nasty hit from Scarletwing,” Jimmy said, sitting up and scrubbing his hands over his face. Lizzie frowned a little, and shifted away from Jimmy to grab the tv remote.
The news flickered on, with a grainy picture of Jimmy on the screen. The picture shrunk down to go in the corner, revealing a newscaster standing in the rubble of the buildings from the fight.
“We have an exciting development from the fight against the Southlanders downtown- not only did Starboy make their debut as one of our newest heroes, but a new super revealed themself today- here we have Starboy to tell us about what he saw,” a newscaster announced, and Starboy came into the frame. Text appeared at the bottom of the screen, a scrolling message that read “Starboy (he/they) Shares All: Recounting the Tale of the Newest Super!” Despite being tackled through a wall, Starboy looked as radiant as ever. Jimmy sat up a little taller.
“I didn’t see a lot, but I was the one who saved them when they fell from the building. But then they ended up saving me back- they shot Scarletwing with this bright blue light, kind of like mine,” Starboy explained, summoning a sphere of starlight in their hand to demonstrate.
“So they’re a starborne, like you?” the newscaster asked.
“That’s what we thought at first, but then they teleported just like Warp does- and when Mirage tried to corner them, they vanished the same way Mirage does. And there are some starbornes who can teleport, but we do it in a burst of starlight, not purple sparks like Warp or slipping in and out of reality like Mirage. And they did both,” he explained, slight awe in his voice.
“Oh? Do I detect some admiration for this new hero?” the newscaster asked with a smile that made Jimmy think a little of a viper.
“Well, we don’t know their allegiances yet-”
“Ooh, star-crossed lovers, perhaps?” the newscaster interrupted, enjoying their own play on words far too much.
“I don’t even know them,” Starboy scrambled with a light flush that made the stars on his cheeks shine even brighter.
“Well I don’t know about you, but this picture submitted by an ameteur photographer sure shows some chemistry to me!” the newscaster chirped, and a picture of Starboy holding Jimmy in his arms came on screen. Jimmy had been staring open-mouthed at Starboy, clinging to their shoulders. Meanwhile Starboy had been looking at Jimmy with a dazzling grin, holding tight to him as they floated in the air. New text appeared at the bottom of the screen: “Romance Among New Heroes, or Star-Crossed Lovers?”
“Now I get why you said their name like that,” Joel murmured in a teasing tone. Jimmy’s face burned, and he buried his face in his hands. Lizzie turned off the tv, letting out a deep breath.
“So. When were you planning on telling me you had powers?” Lizzie demanded.
“Not like we’ve been super honest with him,” Joel muttered. Lizzie reached over to smack the back of his head.
“I didn’t know I had powers until today and- he wait what do you mean, not being honest with me?” Jimmy asked with a frown. Lizzie sighed, glaring at Joel a little, before waving her hand. Pink and yellow sparkles fluttered over her, and in a matter of moments iridescent wings sprouted from her back, and a flowery mask shimmered into place over her eyes. Jimmy jolted back, turning to look at Joel- whose appearance changed with a flurry of red sparks to reveal blood red eyes and a dark cloak.
Panic clutched at Jimmy’s throat. Because his sister and brother-in-law were two of the city’s most feared villains: the Fairy Queen and the Red Wizard. Together they led the Fairy Fort, a team of ruthless villains that tormented the city. They were at the center of many conspiracies and assassinations, and were known for frequent infighting amongst themselves as well as against other villain groups they allied with.
“Please don’t freak out,” Lizzie said, hands up placatingly.
“Bit late for that!” Jimmy squeaked, scrambling backwards. The Fairy Queen was ruthless, the Red Wizard was unhinged, and they were his family?! No way. Today had to be some sort of fever dream- first he got caught in a battle and found out he had powers, and now this?!
“I know we don’t exactly have the best reputation-”
“You think?!” Jimmy cried, cutting Joel off.
“But you don’t know those so-called ‘heroes’ like we do, they’re bad news- especially the Crowfather’s team,” Lizzie explained.
“And now they’re probably gonna be looking for you, with your whole… whatever is happening,” Joel added.
“Starboy seemed alright…” Jimmy said softly. Lizzie’s lips pressed together in a firm line.
“Maybe, but that’s how they start. All bright-eyed and hopeful, talking about how all they want is to help people- but then the power goes to their heads, and they just want to help themselves,” Lizzie said darkly. Jimmy frowned.
“But isn’t that what you and the Fairy Fort do?! You just do whatever you want, causing chaos and…” Jimmy trailed off as he remembered that this wasn’t just his sister he was snapping back at- this was a feared villain who wrought havoc over the city.
“It’s not as simple as hero and villain, Jimmy. The lines have always been blurred- it's just that the heroes don’t want you to know that,” Joel said bitterly.
“But you’ve killed people!” Jimmy sputtered. Joel just shrugged.
“It was me or them. Or they were gonna hurt Lizzie. But it’s not like they were great people either,” Joel said, resting what was probably supposed to be a comforting hand on Jimmy’s arm. But Jimmy jerked away- and red magic followed. It flowed into Jimmy, and he was overcome with simmering rage.
“What’s happening, what did you do to me?!” Jimmy demanded, quickly becoming overwhelmed by the surge of power.
“What do you mean, what did I do?! You’re the one taking my magic!” Joel gasped out, sounding a little like he had been punched.
“You can take people’s powers. That’s why you could shoot starbolts like Starboy, but then teleport like Warp, and then teleport like Mirage,” Lizzie murmured with intrigue in her tone.
“But I don’t want this- I don’t even know how I’m doing this!” Jimmy cried, red magic starting to surge around him.
“Whoa- hold on, let’s calm down first- my magic is tied to emotions, you’re gonna blow us all up at this rate,” Joel said, reaching out to take Jimmy’s hands to try and ground him.
This, however, turned out to be a mistake. Because more magic flooded into Jimmy, and Joel cried out in pain. Jimmy tore his hands out of Joel’s grip, scrambling away. Joel slumped over, and Lizzie was quick to rush to his side. She looked up at Jimmy, shock and horror in her eyes.
Jimmy ran before she could say anything, darting out the door and bursting into the sky with the Red Wizard’s- with Joel’s magic, ignoring Lizzie’s shouts after him.

Cat boy supremacy [3/29/2021]
Warning(s) : beach episode spoiler (also makes more sense if you have watched that episode), it’s rly long
Pairing(s): Sk8 x male reader (platonic), Langa x Reki
Y/n gets invited by Miya to tag along for a trip and enjoy the beach and hot springs. When they get to the beach, Langa leaves his phone unattended and somehow Miya steals his phone AND knows his password ( he’s secretly in a society of magicians). Yup this is just pure chaos 👍
A/n - parts of this is inspired by a tik tok I saw by triburnt
Tumblr media
The breeze was blowing, the sun was shining and y/n was vomiting.
This would of been a whole lot better if Miya had told you about the cruise part. He had invited you to tag along with him to go the hot springs and relax for the weekend. It had all just sounded like a great time but no. Here you were, emptying out your stomach and dying on the inside.
“Hey slime! How are you feeling?” Y/n wiped his mouth before turning to see a small gremlin grinning at him, as a small irk mark appeared on his forehead.
“A whole lot better if you decided to tell me that we have to go on a damn cruise!” He stumbled towards Miya as his stomach lurched and his mouth filled with the familiar bile taste.
“Well, too bad for you, what can you even do about it now?” Miya snickered at your suffering and turned back to his game. With a huff, Y/n fell face down onto a chair and glared at him.
You annoying, cocky little piece of-
“Miya? Y/n?” Both heads turned to see a familiar green- haired cook with 2 ladies clinging to him.
“Joe?!”
3 other heads turned his way before another voice was heard.
“Please wake up. 10 minutes until arrival.” A robotic voice stated which made all 6 heads turn to the direction of the voice.
“Thank you Carla”
“What the hell are you doing here?!?”
Y/n covered his face and staggered away from them before an argument immediately broke out between the gorilla and a certain pink haired male. There was no way he would want to be seen anywhere near them.
“Cherry? What are you doing here?” Langa asked, ignoring Joe who continued to try and argue.
“Ah, I’m here for business, and you?”
“Hot spring healing”
“Tagged along”
“Babysitting”
“Vacation!”
“Nobody asked you, you gigolo gorilla!”
Aaaand they’re at it again.
Y/n sighed, already regretting his life decisions as he threw up for the 4th time.
———
“So beautiful...” Langa muttered as he stared at the ocean in wonder. He leaned further slightly to the water and watched it wash over his feet.
Reki ran up behind him and suddenly pushed him forward, grabbing the board before it fell in and joining Langa after a minute. “You gotta drive in the ocean!” Reki laughed before splashing Langa and slipping.
Everyone was soon all over the beach, enjoying the sunshine and ocean. Shadow was flying through the air, Langa was floating around in a tube and Cherry was lying in the shade of his parasol. Miya, Reki and Y/n were currently throwing a ball at each other in a free for all until he grabbed Reki’s ankles and pulled him under.
... Reki slowly stood up and stayed very very still.
“R-Reki?” Y/n slowly inched away from him as he nervously looked towards Miya for help.
“You... you... YOU RUINED MY HAIR!” Reki suddenly look up at y/n and grabbed the ball throwing it at him , chasing him across the beach.
“MIYA HELP ME DON’T JUST STAND THERE DO SOMETHI-“ Y/n yelled as he ran for his life before proceeding to be hit with a ball and dramatically face planting into the sand. 🥲
———
“Anyways, where’s Joe?” Shadow took a quick glance around the beach before seeing Joe, once again surrounded by 2 different ladies.
“Damn that guy! I’ll get in his way!” Shadow set down the drinks and started towards Joe.
“Don’t bother, it would just work in his favor.” Reki then showed a terrible example of what would happen which Y/n burst of laughing at.
“Hey! As if you could do any better!”
“You sure about that? You probably can’t even think of a way to get in the way of Joe’s flirting! Watch the pros and learn.” Y/n grabbed Miya, interrupting his game, and walked up to Joe.
“If you would like any dinner tonig-“
“Dad! Momma said that if you don’t get back soon, she’ll kill you!” Y/n and Miya crouched down and looked up at Joe expectantly before y/n pointed a finger at Cherry.
“Momma’s going to be so sad when she sees you with another woman! She was already angry when she saw the first one! It’s a wonder how she’s still married to you even when she’s seen you with new women every day!” Y/n sobbed, hugging Miya as they both looked at Joe’s suffering.
“He neglects his kids?!?”
“Damn, I feel so sorry for their mom.”
“Let’s just go...”
“Wait! It’s just a misunderstanding!” Joe panicky tried to reassure them as they look at him skeptically.
“Please don’t take my dad away!” Y/n and Miya simultaneously yelled as you clung to his leg and Miya to his torso. The ladies quickly hurried off and Joe fell down onto the sand in despair as Y/n and Miya walked away triumphantly.
———
After crushing Joe’s dreams of more women, Miya and y/n sat under the parasol, bored out of their minds. Miya’s switch had ran out of battery and Carla was no where to be found so they had to resort to stealing Langa’s phone to play games.
“Ya know, I kind of feel like a spy.”
“...do spies even steal things? Or do they just like, spy?”
“That sound so dumb I can’t believe you would say something like that Miya... so disappointed in you.”
“...I can’t believe a slime is talking to me.”
“...well I can’t believe that-“
“Oi shut up, Langa is on the move.”
“Roger that.” Y/n quickly moved towards the bag and slipped a hand inside, searching for Langa’s phone. He ran back to Miya and they took off, away from the bag.
“D-do spies even say roger?!?” Miya asked between pants.
“Well I..it doesn’t matter. We got the phone now.” Y/n handed Miya the phone and watched him magically unlock it.
“I- how- huh?!? How did you even know his password? I only just knew how Langa’s phone looked like a few minutes ago but you already know the password? What?!?” He stuttered in amazement while Miya looked proudly at the phone. He then turned to Y/n and looked him dead in the eyes,
“I, am a wizard. Now watch, my dear disciple.” Miya processed to then give a 10 minute explanation about fingerprints and smudges and witchcraft.
✨wow✨
“Anyways, this is just sad. Langa doesn’t even have any good games!” Miya sighed before turning towards y/n. “What should we do now?”
“I guess looking at all his secrets would be interesting?”
“I- why would that be the first thing that comes to your mind?”
“Well... don’t you want to know as well?”
Is it really that weird?
Y/n tilted his head before taking the phone from Miya. He scrolled through the apps before opening messages. :0
“And would you look at that!” Y/n showed Miya the contact info the Langa had for Reki.
“:0. I called it, yep. I knew it!” On the screen for Reki’s contact name was Reki with a red. heart.
“It’s a red heart! A. Red. Heart. The ship is real!” Y/n and Miya looked excitedly at each other before Miya spotted a certain person walking towards them.
“Quickly! Hide the phone! Langa’s coming!” He hissed and y/n hastily shoved the phone into the fold of his jacket.
“Hey guys, have you seen my phone?” Langa walked up to Miya and y/n while looking around.
“No we haven’t, I don’t even know what it looks like!” Y/n laughed nervously as Miya jabbed him sharply in the ribs.
Ow ow ow damn you really didn’t have to do that. It’s not like you could do any better anyways 🙄
“What are you up to anyways?” Langa looked suspiciously at y/n while he tried to look natural and smile. Miya quickly interjected and said, “Nothing much, we’re just talking. If we do see your phone, we’ll tell you though.”
“Ah, okay thanks.” Langa turned around and started towards Cherry.
“Miya! My savior! I have always believed in you!” Y/n rejoiced and wrapped his arms around Miya in joy.
“Oi you idiot slime! You almost blew our cover!” Miya sighed, “you are such a horrible liar.” He shook is head in fake disappointment before getting the phone and looking around once again.
“Ouch Miya, my feelings :( I take back what I just said.” Y/n sobbed before wiping away his fake tears. Miya just rolled his eyes and pointed to the screen.
“Anyways, look at this! The first thing that I see when I open Instagram is Reki’s profile!”
“Wait, Langa has Instagram? Wowwww I can’t believe that he never told me! Wait let me make him follow me.” Y/n was about the search up his profile until he saw the search history.
“Pick up lines?” Miya commented as he looked at the screen. “I guess the ship is about to sail soon then.”
“Nahh, Reki would be too dense to know that Langa would be flirting with him.”
“Oh so you want to bet on it huh?”
“Hell yeah. If I win, you give me $10 and if you win, I give you $1.” Y/n smiled happily, as Miya looked at him sideways.
“...why do I have to give you $10 but you would only give me-“
“ANYWAYS, he probably has pick up lines written in his notes, let’s check that!”
“...so we’re just going to ignore that you only give-“
“Oh wow, these pick up lines are... really bad...” y/n sighed and shook his head.
“Okay... so we’re just moving on I guess. Anyways, yeah, those are some really bad pick up lines.”
Unfortunately, due to the fact that Y/n and Miya were so engrossed in reading horrible pick up lines, they never noticed Langa coming up behind them and well... let’s just say that there won’t be anymore y/n content. (I’m just lazy and have no idea how to end this 🤷‍♂️)
A/n- yea, that’s it, I hope it wasn’t that bad since it’s my first try at things like this and I hope u enjoyed it :]

Hello - I’m spreading the love for our little guy - post your 5 favorite photos of Blaine
I completely forgot about this and I’m sorry. I love my tiny son. and i love him so much that i simply couldn’t limit myself to 5 blaine gifs. I went up to 10 because i’m indecisive and love blaine. 
In no particular order:
Tumblr media
starting off strong with what I like to refer to as Dilf Blaine (y’all know who you are). man just out here looking like a suburban dad. and i think that’s very sexy of him. 
Tumblr media
look at him with his funky lil hat. the sweater and the red polo. the nose scrunch. i could wax poetic about this look but really it’s just me going “LOOK AT THIS CUTIE!!!”
Tumblr media
who would i be if i didn’t have early s6 blaine? man just looks at home. he’s just so :D back at Dalton, teaching the warblers. he’s at his best here and no i will not be taking criticism at this time. 
Tumblr media
i believe in C.H.U.M.S blaine supremacy. that’s all. he looks so pretty.
Tumblr media
funky lil man pt 2. he’s just living his best life. vibing. i would die for biota blaine. 
Tumblr media
look at him. how can you not love him. the curls and the outfit. blaine stop looking pretty during a mental breakdown challenge. 
Tumblr media
FINGER. WAVESSSS. I MISSED YOU. he looks so soft here. just wanna give him a hug. give him a lil forehead kiss. cutie. 
Tumblr media
he’s wearing what i refer to as the Sad Blaine Vest. he wears it here and also in 3x17. plus,,, points for sebastian dark side hair in this gif. 
Tumblr media
nightbird blaine. dork. that’s it. he’s just a massive dork.
Tumblr media
if you thought he wasn’t gonna be here, do you even know me. the hair is just,, peak perfection. cozy angery boy. like an upset cat. 
Tumblr media
finally, red polo blaine. he wears so many and he had to be here. look at him, all smiley and happy. good for him. he deserves it. sunshine twins besties supremacy. points down for the hair. gelmet bad. 
This became an almost commentary on my favourite blaine outfits and that’s because that’s how i remember things. i love all of these outfits so much. the self control it took to limit this to just 10. i need to be better at deciding things. anyway,, enjoy the blaine on your dash. 
edit: i have just realised there's 11 gifs here. consider it a bonus blaine because i can't count.

Hi I just wanted to say you're one of my fav blogs.... I love reading your posts and they fuel my love for this game!! Anyway--I'm actually here to ask if you have any favorite headcanon about Tank or tank/Johnny because I'm always interested in that 😳
awww thanks! as for favorite headcanons, uhh... hmmm. i have different headcanons based on the different games they appear in together so i’ll uh, categorize those i guess (also warning: long. i am very dramatic and thus am prone to waxing poetic about how i perceive a relationship)
sims 2 pc - tank is just a repressed gay with no idea how to cope with it because of ... you know... everything. he can’t recognize his feelings, he doesn’t know how to cope with them, and he’s so frustrated by everything all of the time because of the kind of home he’s grown up in that all the wires are being crossed, and he’s kind of an asshole to people who don’t deserve it because of that. in theory he really, really likes johnny... johnny’s nice, he’s handsome, and likable... but that’s also why he really, really dislikes him and is supremely jealous... he isn’t in a place where he can realize anything positive he feels. tank doesn’t get why his pulse speeds up or his face flushes when johnny’s around, he doesn’t know why he craves his attention - for anyone else it should be obvious, but for him there’s just too much going on. but he knows when he sees johnny surrounded by people who like him, he wishes that he were johnny, and he knows he’s an alien ... tank knows what to do with that.
in theory johnny could have really, really liked tank too - he’s fit, athletic, he can be witty and goofy and creative - but... johnny doesn’t get to see the part of tank worth liking. the parts that he would like, that he likes in others already. tank won’t show him. tank can’t afford to be vulnerable! so because of tank’s issues, he causes issues for johnny and johnny only sees the tank who is kind of a jealous repressed loner. and he’s already friends with ripp through ophelia so he’d already be aware of how tank isn’t exactly brother of the year as golden child to ripps scapegoat. and with no way of figuring out that the way tank’s treated isnt actually any better, johnny’s a bit biased. but johnny’s bio says he dreams of being a hero on a white horse, so i always kind of interpreted that as something of a hero complex - so i imagine he’d soften quickly if he had any idea the full extent of whats going on. 
oh, weirdly, that segues into -
sims 2 psp - not a very romantic headcanon - more about coping with circumstance - but theyre both victims of abuse from buzz and johnny knows it.
but so is ripp. so they’re not close, because johnny can see how the brothers are pitted against each other and he doesn’t like it... but johnny understands tank now, he understands why he’s like that, and he can’t really bring himself to be angry with him or blame him, even when tank is preventing his escape. he still has a hero complex. he sees the way tank has been hurt. he sees the way ripp is hurt, too. but he just can’t be mad. the fact he’s held captive by buzz isn’t the only reason why he hates him so vehemently, so passionately. he hates that he can see a father treat his sons so callously, so cruelly, and can’t do anything about it.
not that he’d put up with tank’s bs... but just sometimes trying to reach out, trying to talk sense into him. and maybe, because the nicest guy he knows is making some good points, maybe tank has doubts. maybe he questions buzz. johnny is very convincing. it’s not his fault!
basically im a sucker for the hurt/comfort of johnny’s kindness and his bluntness and courage helping tank realize that none of whats going on is right, or good. 
sims 2 ds/gba - i believe in ds/gba era tank/johnny supremacy, first and foremost - it’s always good! but there’s just something so nice and comforting about it in ds/gba... from their perspective, things are so different and yet also so similar... and there’s a certain kind of comfort with each other in seeing how different they’ve become, but how familiar they are. how they’ve grown and improved, and forged a healthy friendship and connection... and they know each other better than anyone else in town at that point - everyone is either dead, or left town. 
and the idea that tank just regularly comes into the pawn shop just to see johnny because he’s grown up and he knows how to follow his heart now... and johnny really is all he wants. maybe all he’s ever wanted, really. and johnny likes that. happiness is a good look on tank, and he likes seeing tank. you ever notice how johnny sells lotto tickets with tank’s face on them? i like to think he designed them himself, because he ... you know, likes tank. likes to see him.
when johnny’s not busy at the pawn shop, when tank’s not busy running the medical center he lives in... i imagine theyre supremely cheesy together. i mean, tank totally goes out of his way to help johnny around the pawnshop. i’ve always personally viewed johnny as supernaturally strong without trying, but i mean... us legbets just loooove to watch objects of our affection lifting things, and i can totally imagine tank just casually lifting things to impress johnny. he’s a bit humble but he likes attention from johnny, always has. and yeah, johnny can outbench him, but he enjoys the view.
and i KNOWwww that tank primarily lives in his dumb little medical center bunker he’s running, but i like to imagine that johnny has an apartment above the pawn shop (um, in the ds version anyways, it doesnt seem like the gba version has one but ... you know tank does spend a lot of time with a telescope up there sooo) and they live together, with a cat. its a very nice, domestic life that they’ve worked hard to manage with each other, and they’ve earned it 
sims 4 - they’re gallery sims with no relationship or connection with each other but it’s an alternate timeline so i like to take advantage of the fact :)
you know everything i wrote about tank having a crush on johnny he had no idea how to deal with? i love the idea that it’s the reverse in sims 4 timeline. tank in every other appearance he’s had has been so... insecure, reserved. but tank in sims 4 is confident! outgoing! athletic! ... johnny doesn’t stand a chance. he’s just a useless bisexual and he thinks tank is really cute and doesn’t know what to do about it... but how convenient for him, tank doesn’t have the same problems that really stood in the way of a relationship that he had in sims 2.
lyla’s ghost being around to shape the household post-mortem has definitely had positive effects on the family - the grunt siblings have better relationships with each other, they have their mother to guide them and intervene if buzz is ever unfair to them, and to question his authority... 
tank knows johnny likes him, in this timeline, and he’s a bit smug about it. but its ok! he kind of likes the scrawny green kid too. so what if he shows off a little more lately to get his attention? so what if he gets a little close in the hallways at school? whats a little kissing between homies?

Reference:
Face claim: None
Voice claim: None
~PERSONALITY~
Traits:
Positive:
Lucky: For some reason, Lith has super good luck for the most trivial things, like managing to get a cauldron just before Potions class starts because she forgot hers. She assumes it must be the universe’s compensation for cursing her.
Resourceful: To any problem she encounters, from a forgotten homework to escaping death, she will always have a set of solutions already elaborated in her mind. They might not always work as she wants, but they certainly save her ass.
Intelligent: She is a nerd and an overachiever. She enjoys learning and hyperfixates on a lot of interesting subjects during the course of her life.
Neutral:
Introverted: While she can handle big groups, Lith gets stressed out quickly. She prefers being on her own or with a few friends.
Daydreamer: Lith’s head is always on the clouds, she has whole worlds inside, but never actually gets to express them, not that she minds. She also has a very vivid imagination.
Negative:
Insecure: She gains more confidence as she grows older, but she will always doubt her abilities and her own worth.
Workaholic: No matter what she does, she has to give her best. That causes many sleepless nights and some eyebags once in a while.
No emotional intelligence: When it comes to matters of the heart, she has no clue how to proceed. She finds it difficult to read the mood of a room or identify when someone is feeling down. In the same way that she has a hard time figuring out her own emotions and naming them.

Best Classes:
Charms: Lith was taught charms by Jacob since he began Hogwarts when he noticed his sister had a particular proficiency with them, so when Lith arrived she was a bit ahead of her peers and continued to hone her skills on more advanced charms on her own.
History of Magic: Lith has always been a History nerd and History of Magic was a class she enjoyed and easily excelled in. Not much because of the Professor but Rowan and the study groups they would organize.
Worst Classes:
Flying: When in her human form, she is terrified of heights and hates flying.
Herbology: Lith and plants is something that is just not meant to be.
Favorite Professors:
Silvanus Kettleburn: He is eccentric, he is encouraging and he cares not about the world except for his beloved magical creatures. Lith admires his dedication and appreciates a non conventional teacher like him.
Patricia Rakepick: While Lith never fully trusted the curse breaker, she would be lying if she said that she did not enjoy Rakepick’s classes. She was probably the best professor of DADA she ever had.
Least Favorite Professors:
Severus Snape: Despite being her Head of House, Lith never liked Snape. He could mean well and she would be grateful for that but please be at a minimum distance of 6 feet apart. His attitude was the opposite of encouraging and she hated it.
Madam Hooch: She is scary :(( please don’t yell at her for not knowing how to fly she doesn’t need a broom anyway ;-;.

~MAGIC~
Tumblr media
1st Wand:
Willow wood
10
Surprisingly swishy
Unicorn hair core
“Willow is an uncommon wand wood with healing power, and I have noted that the ideal owner for a willow wand often has some (usually unwarranted) insecurity, however well they may try and hide it. While many confident customers insist on trying a willow wand (attracted by their handsome appearance and well-founded reputation for enabling advanced, non-verbal magic) my willow wands have consistently selected those of greatest potential, rather than those who feel they have little to learn. It has always been a proverb in my family that he who has furthest to travel will go fastest with willow.” (Pottermore.)
2nd Wand:
Macpalxochitl wood
113/4
Slightly Yielding
Huactli feather core
Disclaimer: this is my own lore.
Macpalxochitl, or the Devil’s Hand Tree, became a popular wood to make wands out of when the afrancesamiento of Mexico began. Old chroniclers would often refer to this tree as “worthy of any castle and palace”, so it was sought by wizards of high status. Nowadays it’s existence is very rare and only a few wandmakers are allowed to handle this tree. Wands of this wood tend to be stubborn, but they will remain loyal to their first owner. It is said that it’s better suited to healing magic, but that doesn’t mean it’s not able to turn to the Dark Arts.
The Huactli  is a strange eagle-like bird that feeds on snakes. Its peculiarity is that it’s is able to speak the language of men and predict their future. It is said that if you hear it laugh, it means good luck, but if it mutters sadly, it can translate in danger, sickness and death. Wands of this core make powerful spells, but are often unpredictable and difficult to tame. Their loyalty is easily gained and easily lost, though this may vary depending on the wood. 
Boggart 
Form: A big twisted grackle like humanoid with bright golden eyes.
Riddikulus: The grackle suddenly doing the chicken dance.
Amorentia
What they smell: Hot chocolate, books and oil painting (turpentine lmao).
What they smeel like to others: Mint, paint and parchment.
Patronus
Form: Jaguar (for Jacob), Eagle (after Talbott).
Memory: Family reunions on her Mother’s side of the family. All her cousins running around while the adults played cards.
What they see in the Mirror of Erised: Jacob and her, side by side, with the marks of their curse erased from their chests. As the years pass, more people are added into the picture behind them, like Chiara, Rowan, Talbott and Jae. After Rowan dies, their image takes Jacob’s place by Lith’s side.
~FAMILY~
Father: Daniel Thorne.Pureblood wizard.
Curly white hair (not due to the curse tho), white skin and golden eyes. Her dad is her greatest supporter, anything she wants to do he is right behind her cheering for her. He is a little bit eccentric but he loves to indulge his children's interests and spoil them. However, he is not available in the emotional department, he doesn’t know how to deal with those problems.
Mother:  Perla Rosas Villareal.
Muggle. Curly brown hair, brown skin and brown eyes. Her mom is strict but loving. Lith always seeks her for emotional support, she listens patiently and offers help only when asked. She is the one who makes her question things and they often get into arguments because of that.
Brother: Jacob Thorne Rosas
Half-blood wizard. The reason for all this mess. Curly silver hair, brown skin and golden eyes. An introverted and sweet guy, but very naive and trusting. The relationship between the Thorne siblings had always been good. Sure, they fought and argued, but they got along pretty well. After the Vaults, Lith became wary of her own brother, but when it all ended they began to reconstruct their relationship, though it will always be damaged.
Pets:
Onyx (Grackle): He is not exactly her pet, he is the other half of her soul aka her Companion.
Nox: A black cat that stayed back at home with her parents.
~FRIENDS~
Tumblr media
Best friends:
Rowan Khanna
Chiara Lobosca
Jae Kim
Good friends:
Badeea Ali (they are art rivals but in a friendly way)
Charlie Weasley
Bill Weasley
Tulip Karasu
Friends:
Penny Haywood
Barnaby
Murphy
Andre
It’s Complicated:
Love Interests:
Talbott Winger (he is the only one I have a description for atm, the others are in another post if I remember correctly lol)
They met when Lith was trying to break her curse via the animagus potion, a thing that obviously didn’t work.
After the failure of the potion (of which Talbott is not aware), they began to notice they shared similar hiding spots, such as the Owlery, and started to acknowledge each other’s existence by simply saying hello.
Then Lith started to get closer again, asking him about the potion and being an animagus. He got suspicious and ended up discovering Chiara and Lith were trying to turn Jae into an animagus to accompany them during Chiara’s werewolf transformation.
He agreed to help them and became a member of the Werewolf Support Squad, a little bit against his will but he warmed up to them eventually.
They started to get close during those night escapades. They hung out more together (with the Squad) even after the full moons.  
Recovering Talbott’s necklace was the first time they got close one on one. It was also the moment they began to develop feelings for each other, even if they couldn’t name them yet.
They like being alone together, and started acting as a couple before they actually became one.
The moment Talbott realizes he has fallen for Lith is a morning after the full moon, when they are all in the Room of Requirement trying to get some sleep and the only thing he can look at is her.
For Lith it takes more time to realize her massive crush. It happened when Talbott fell asleep in the library while studying together. Tulip comes in and says something like “could you tell your boyfriend to wake up, Lith Thorne? We are having a House meeting soon.” Lith’s like “he is not my boyfriend tho??” and Tulip just answers “Really? Thought you were dating for months.” And leaves. That’s the moment when Lith looks at sleeping Talbott and omg he is cute and we certainly do look like a couple oh fuck.
Yet neither of them thinks the other is interested, so they continue like normal.
Until they stay behind in the Room of Requirement one time and they accidentally confess and bam guess they are a real couple now.
They graduate. Talbott gets his own place and works as an auror, Lith travels the world as a curse breaker. They meet sometimes and go on dates.
The year of Voldemort’s uprising, they have a fight and they both go their separate ways, though they never once mention breaking up.
They reunite in the Battle of Hogwarts, Talbott almost dies and they apologize to each other.
Lith moves in with Talbott after that and they marry and adopt two kittens.
Dormmates:
Merula Snyde
Ismelda Murk
Rowan Khanna
Doesn’t interact:
Merula Snyde
Ismelda Murk
Diego Caplan
Bea Haywood
Enemies:
Merula Snyde (formerly)
Patricia Rakepick

~STORY~
Tumblr media
Childhood: 
Lith was born in a middle low class family in the Valley of Mexico, with a malediction in her blood. Her early childhood consisted of playing with the children in the same street and Jacob. Since insecurity was still not that high in the city, her mom would let them go out of the house on their own. They attended a public elementary school until Jacob received his letter. After that, Lith couldn’t bother with school anymore but was forced to attend. As she grew up, children started to distance themselves from her, all the neighbourhood thought it was suspicious that her brother had gone to a boarding school when they barely had the money to pay for all their expenses. It got worse when Jacob disappeared.
HOGWARTS:
1st Year: Befriends Rowan, Ben, Chiara and Penny. Makes enemies with Merula. Finds Ice Vault. The Werewolf Support Unit is formed by Chiara, Rowan and Lith.
2nd Year: Ben Cooper disappears. Befriends Bill Weasley. They enter another common room. They open the Ice Vault.
3rd Year: Befriends Tulip, Barnaby and Talbott. Tries the Animagus potion. Attempt to turn Jae into an animagus. The Werewolf Support Unit becomes the Werewolf Support Squad with new members Jae and Talbott. They open Fear Vault.
4th Year: Befriends Charlie Weasley. Patricia Rakepick arrives at Hogwarts. Sleepwalking curse. Open Forest Vault. Goes to the Celestial Ball with Rowan and on a “date” with Talbott.
5th Year: Befriends Jae Kim, Badeea Ali, Liz Tuttle and Diego Caplan. Detention in the kitchens. Beatrice Haywood is trapped in the portrait. Rakepick becomes the new DADA teacher. Lith realizes she has feelings for Talbott. They open the Portrait Vault.
6th Year: Ben goes dark. Lith and Talbott start to date. Rowan dies. Meets Ty Blackwood and finds out they are related. Circle of Khanna.
7th Year: Who tf knows?? :))
ADULTHOOD:
After graduation: Lith goes to become a cursebreaker, taking jobs others would not. She quickly gains a reputation among shady witches and wizards. She lives like this for a year, not having a stable place to stay and traveling from country to country carrying only her backpack. She grows tired of it and decides to drop it all. She goes back to Mexico and moves in with a few muggle roomies. She studies plastic arts at a university and graduates early. She goes back to England to return to her curse breaker activities when Voldemort comes back.
Order of the Phoenix / 2nd Wizarding War: Lith never joins the Order of the Phoenix. She becomes an independent Rescuer, working by herself or for third parties (the Order included) to rescue Undesirables and get them out of the country. She even crafter fake papers to get them out. She does get in contact with members of the Order sometimes, like Carewyn Cromwell, who is one of her main contacts within the Ministry. She fights in the Battle of Hogwarts and saves Talbott’s life after reuniting with him.
Post-War: She decides she has had enough adventures for a while and moves in with Talbott, who quits as an auror and becomes a poet. They get married in a small ceremony which basically was just signing the papers and getting dinner with friends afterwards. After Jacob dies and her nephew Icarus is left orphaned, she takes him in with Talbott and they all move in with Ty at his much bigger home. Lith returns to her curse breaking job to support the whole family, since she doesn’t want Ty to pay for all of their expenses. Charlie moves in too after dating Ty for a while, which was a surprise for all. And they all live together whoo.
Old Age & Death: After retiring definitely, Lith dedicates the rest of her life to art. She even sells some of her works. She paints until her hair starts to turn black and she grows feathers, she paints until her arms don’t obey her anymore. She dies on her bed, with her precious Companion resting on her chest, as they both merge together, accompanied by Talbott, Icarus and her loved ones.
Tumblr media
MISC
When they were children, Jacob lost one of his fangs during a sudden transformation and a collision with the door. Lith keeps it as a necklace charm and gifted Jacob one of her own feathers. Because of this, she believes the first black quill is the one he carried as a necklace charm too.
Before they start dating, Lith gives Talbott one of her feathers, which he wears alongside her mother’s. Lith also wears one of his as a necklace, but when she grows older she turns it into an earring. This is one of the reasons why people believe they were already together.
Lith has a habit of drawing on her skin, which is why she sometimes has her legs covered in little doodles. She later starts drawing on her friends.
She hoards art supplies.
She is a gambling addict, so she will get intense during exploding snap games. She knows a lot of card games from her Mother’s side of the family, challenge her at your own risk.
She never learned how to drive.
She learned a bit of mexican magic from her cousins, who attended Aztlán (the mexican wizarding school) created by @tsikuri.
She definitely sings in the shower, but not during her Hogwarts years.
Her taste in music is broad, listening to almost anything except banda.
She has a sweet tooth and cannot stand spicy food, causing the teasing from her whole family, who all, as proud Mexicans, eat chili with everything.
After she graduates, her schedule shifts entirely. She wakes up at 2 pm and goes to sleep at 3 am.
Her love languages are physical touch, but she is too shy and hyper aware to actually approach people and touch them, and gifts.  
If you give her food, you will now be on her “Good human, Angel from Heaven :-:” list. 
Her wand core comes from a bird that can predict death and misfortune, this curiously can be linked to her manifestation of the curse.
Most people think her new wand is ugly, and she did too. But she had to carve it herself to obtain it from an old Mexican wandmaker. The form is also inspired in the flower from the wand wood tree.Lucky: For some reason, Lith has super good luck for the most trivial things, like managing to get a cauldron just before Potions class starts because she forgot hers. She assumes it must be the universe’s compensation for cursing her.

Dreadstar #1-2
Dreadstar #1 (1982 – I read the newsstand edition of #1, published 1985), Epic Comics
By Jim Starlin. Colors by Glynis Oliver
Tumblr media
Dreadstar #1 opens with a long, long, long ten-page recap. Vanth Dreadstar is a refugee from the Milky Way, which has been destroyed by war. He settles on planet Nimbus in the Empirical galaxy, where he tries to forget his old life and live in Peace. But, inevitably, war comes to Nimbus, anyway. A Monarchy starship lays waste to the planet leaving Dreadstar, Syzygy Darklock (a powerful magician), and Oedi, cat-human hybrid and a farmer, as the only survivors. They vow to end this war, and become the core of the rebellion against the war. They are joined by Willow, a blind cybernetic telepath who can see through the eyes of her pet space monkey, and later by Skeevo, a smuggler.
The war is between the Monarchy and Instrumentality. The Monarchy, is what it sounds like, a feudal dynastic monarchy ruling half the galaxy. The Instrumentality is a powerful religious order led by Lord High Papal. They have taken over the other half of the galaxy. Now the two powers struggle for supremacy over the Empirical galaxy. It’s clear that Starlin is playing around with classic themes of authoritarian dominance, whether monarchic, or religious, doesn’t matter. He sees both as two sides of the same coin. Both are wrong, and the struggle between them kills innocents. Dreadstar & crew need to free the Empirical, both literally and figuratively.
The first issue is a heist. The crew attack an Instrumentality space station which is full of precious metals. Vanth wants the hoard of wealth to give them the funds to escalate their struggle against both sides.
Tumblr media
Starlin draws the crap out of this issue. The environments are fully realized, and the crew fight hundreds of robots, all rendered on the page without too many shortcuts. I’ve always liked the way Stalin plays around with the grid. He’s unafraid to chop the grid into small slivers, to give the action an added urgency. He really likes density on a page. All the pages have either a lot of panels, or are rendered with a lot of detail. He also doesn’t skimp on text. He really wants to pack a lot of information into the comic. The result is a pretty satisfying read. Even if the intro info dump is a little much, you come away immersed into a huge story. It made me pretty excited for issue 2.
The whole thing is really reminiscent of Star Wars. It checks all the same boxes. Science-fantasy, check. Mystical swords and powers, check. Empires bent on domination, check. A scrappy crew caught in the middle, check. A furry companion, check. You can keep going and keep finding more similarities. And it makes sense. Star Wars made space opera fantasy really popular at that time, and many comics around that time featured high adventure in space (Omega Men, Star Jammers, Alien Legion, among many others). But Starlin is an idiosyncratic creator and he does make it his own. He injects his favorite themes: mysticism, religion, authoritarianism, and a sense of cosmic grandeur. A lot here is reminiscent of Warlock & Captain Marvel, his 70’s psychedelic cosmic comics for Marvel. Dreadstar takes all these concepts, themes, character types, and mashes them into a huge sprawling space epic that is all his own.
Dreadstar #2
After loading up on cash in the first issue, Dreadstar & gang continue their rebellion against the 200 year war between The Monarchy & The Instrumentality. The 2nd issue focuses on Willow, the blind telepath. She can read and affect the minds of humans and machines. We start out with Willow being a total badass as she effortlessly takes out a squad of military police that endanger their mission. We see how valuable she is to the Dreadstar crew. Very quickly she retreats in her private quarters and begin to ruminate on her life, which of course means we’re about to get Willow’s origin story. She joins up with Dreadstar after he rescues her in another operation (these events were apparently told in Epic Illustrated). She chooses to leave her unhappy life, and stowaways in Dreadstar’s spaceship. When she’s discovered, she has a powerful psychic outburst. Vanth & Syzygy decide that having a telepath onboard could be useful, so they decide to keep her around. Syzygy trains Willow how to use her mental powers, but she has some kind of mental block that prevents her from reaching full potential.
Tumblr media
Most of this issue is an excuse for Starlin to go all Ditko on the art. Much of the training sequence with Syzygy and Willow, takes place on various astral and mental planes, mystical dimensions, and other realms. Panels are full of the kind of cosmic psychedelia Steve Ditko pioneered in Doctor Strange and other books. Starlin has always been into this stuff. Warlock was full of Ditkoesque psychedelic touches. We’re treated to squiggly cosmic pathways, portals to unknown dimensions, and blinding white energy emanations that are the ‘force that dwells within all of us.’
Syzygy manages to identify Willow’s block: She was sexually abused by her father (this proved to be very controversial in future letters columns). To overcome her trauma, she enters—against Syzygy’s warning—the white energy of her soul only to be permanently blinded. But she triumphs over her traumatic blocks and becomes a powerful telepath. She accepts the trade-off: blindness for power. Dreadstar gifts her a space monkey, and now, by seeing through the animal, she’s not so blind either. The white light stays with her, and in times of need she can call upon it. I’m enjoying this so far.

All I Want for Fete Week is You
Chapter 2/13
<Chapter 1 - Chapter 2
Plot Summary:
After dealing with Ren’s antics, avoiding assassinations and planning his own hit list, General Armitage Hux just wants to take a nap after the chaos of planning for Fete Week.
Left alone while his Resistance friends are scattered on their own romantic holiday outings, Commander Poe Dameron just wants someone to enjoy the holidays with alongside BB-8.
On the first day of Fete Week, Kylo Ren ships Hux to Poe in a gift-wrapped escape pod. Reluctant to turn Hux in for interrogation in the spirit of the holiday season, Poe decides to let Hux stay with him for Fete Week while they find a way to ship him back to the First Order, under the condition that Hux participates in the Commander’s favorite winter festivities.
Will they find the magic of the season like all the classic holiday specials? Of course not. But it’s bound to be an eventful, explosive Fete Week for both of them anyway…
Genre: Somewhat Fluff, Somewhat Crack, 100% GingerPilot
Chapter 2: Uncompromised Negotiations (Holiday Holovids and Music Part 1)
Commander Poe Dameron had dealt with a number of unideal situations these past few months, ranging from being trapped in unarmed escape pods pursued by a fleet of Star Destroyers to having nothing to eat but Rey’s specialty “Instant Cheese Bread” for a week before the Resistance found a space station with a convenience store. So, he was used to handling mishaps. Admittedly, having General Hux crash through his bedroom window in a box covered in wrapping paper and ribbons was a little unexpected, but Poe did his best to manage the situation professionally.
He took a sip from his peppermint caf latte and leaned back in bed. He’d let Hux have the armchair. The general looked quite festive despite the fact that he was still unconscious, tied to the chair with a string of New Year Lights BB-8 had retrieved from the Resistance storeroom (which was lacking in fuel and food, but abounding with lights and paper snowflakes).
The droid was circling his decorated prisoner, praising his own good work in binary. Poe wasn’t sure why BB units had a tendency to circle people in a predatory fashion. Whatever the reason, it was pretty cute and probably wasn’t too dangerous.
“Nothing to watch,” Poe muttered, flipping through the channels on the hologram monitor. In a way, he was almost happy that Hux had dropped by, even if his arrival was somewhat unconventional and even if he was the lunatic general who’d destroyed an entire star system. It was the most eventful thing that had happened so far this Fete Week.
Normally, the holidays were a busier time, but this year, everyone seemed to have other plans. Maybe it was because the Resistance had been stuck on the Millennium Falcon for months after the Battle of Crait, and they’d all gotten tired of each other. It certainly seemed as if everyone had taken the opportunity to scatter as soon as they found another abandoned Rebel base on Battu.
Snap and Karé were off for some “alone time” exploring town. Most of the other remaining twenty members of the Resistance had similar vague explanations for their absence. Even Finn and Rose had sought some privacy (and no, Poe had not cried internally after he got the message over “I gave you my jacket, stitched it up for you and lent you my droid on your mission to the Supremacy, and you can’t even stick around to do something fun for the holidays with me for thirty minutes. How could you sub me like this? Do I mean nothing to you?”).
Up until this morning, Poe had assumed he’d still have a small viewing party for the classic holiday holovid cartoons, consisting of himself, Rey, General Organa and BB-8. But then Rey had shipped herself off to spend the holidays lightsaber fighting Kylo Ren and trying to slash the other side of his face (which sounded very joyful indeed), and Organa wasn’t in the mood for watching the Red-Nosed Taun Taun movie again.
So, it seemed that the holiday festivities would be limited to Poe, BB-8 and Hux… depending on how long they could keep the latter tied up.
Tiring of endless commercial breaks, Poe turned the hologram off with a sigh.
“Hey, Buddy, do you think you can find a holovid chip for the ‘Red-Nosed Taun Taun’ along with all those other Fete Week supplies?” he asked the droid. “I know you wanted to watch your favorite again this year…”
“Poe wants to watch same holovid again,” BB-8 corrected. “Again and again and…”
“Okay, we both want to see it,” Poe conceded.
“See WHAT, Rebel Scum?!”
Hux had woken up. Poe had thought that the general would be more amicable after a short nap. True, it had been a nap induced by a taser, but that didn’t mean it couldn’t be refreshing. Unfortunately, the incident had only made Hux more agitated and, if that was even possible, louder.
“Good morning, Hugs,” Poe replied, making his way over to the armchair where Hux was tugging against his glowing straitjacket. The redhead shot him a venomous scowl.
“I don’t know what it is you want to see,” Hux growled, “Battle plans, blueprints… I won’t show you anything. Torture me with your infernal droid, tie me up… I won’t…”
“Relax, Hugs,” Poe said. “I don’t torture people, not on holidays… not ever, really. And BB-8’s an astromech droid, not a torture droid.” (At least, he was pretty sure that information was accurate. BB-8’s manual had described the droid as “multipurpose”, and he did come equipped with more needles and blades than a typical astromech droid, but that was beside the point.)
“Then why am I tied to an interrogation chair?” Hux demanded.
“It’s not a torture chair and it’s actually very plush and comfortable if you sit the right way,” Poe tried to explain. “Look, it wasn’t my idea. I know you aren’t armed and all, so I told BB-8 that we could just lock the door and talk things out, but Buddy said we needed to take precautions. Now, don’t get me wrong, but I do kind of see BB’s point… saying how you’re always going on about how you want to wipe out the Rebellion and obliterate our fleet and all that jazz.”
“You’re not exactly convincing me to do otherwise, restraining me in such an… undignified manner.” The lights restraining Hux began to blink in various shades of neon colors as if to illustrate his point. Poe had only just noticed that the lights were synchronized with the holiday radio station, which was playing a techno version of “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Life Day”. “But do as you wish, Dameron. The First Order will have sound retribution for whatever humiliation I am to endure here! I will see to it that you and your Rebel friends face the full wrath…”
“Shh!” Poe hushed him. “Okay, okay. Hugs, you’re going to have to quiet down your wrath. I don’t really want to wake up General Organa.”
Hux froze mid-scream.
“Organa?” he said. “Leia Organa?”
“Yeah,” said Poe. “She stayed behind at the base with me while everyone else left for the holidays. It’s still early in the morning though, so I thought I’d let her sleep in. She’s really drained, all this restoring hope to the Rebellion, you know… not to mention the fact that she had to fly through a mile of empty space a few months ago. That’s got to be real tiring.”
“That’s not what I meant.” Hux was visibly shaking, which added an interesting effect to the light display. “Leia Organa… Ren’s mother is here at this base. I…” Hux’s voice was subdued. Poe was surprised that the general was capable of speaking at a volume that wasn’t between noisy and earsplitting. “I suppose you’ll have to turn me in to her.”
Poe hadn’t thought quite that far in advance. He looked to BB-8 for advice. The droid cocked its head expectantly but said nothing.
“I guess, yeah…” Poe replied.
A wave of pure terror swept over Hux’s face. His eyes darted to the floor, murmuring something to himself that sounded like “How low down of you, Ren… you won’t kill me on your own, but you’ll have your mother kill me…”
Suddenly, Poe understood what was terrifying the general. Kylo Ren was certainly capable of frightening things. It wasn’t unreasonable to assume that his relatives had equally chaotic personalities.
“Don’t worry, Hugs,” Poe tried to console the frightened general. “General Organa isn’t creepy like Ren.”
“You just said she flew through space and survived,” Hux said, narrowing his eyes. “They say she’s strangled enormous beasts with her bare hands.”
“Yeah, but…”
“They say she slapped you, demoted you, and blasted you into a wall. Thereafter, you were unconscious, and awoke to find yourself trapped on a defenseless escape pod, an open target to the ventral cannons.”
“And whose fault was that last part?” Poe retorted. “Look, Hugs. It’ll be okay. She’s probably not going to hurt you… she might even let you go…”
Hux did not look at all convinced. Every last bit of color had fled his already pallid complexion. He trembled and seemed to bar his teeth like, well… a threatened Arkanisian Fox Hound.
As a loyal member of the Resistance who had vowed to crush the First Order, Poe really ought to have turned Hux in. But there was something about Hux, immobilized by flashing holiday lights, their red and green glow illuminating his unexpectedly dainty features, the wires wrapped around him in a way that complimented his slim figure, that gave Poe pause.
“Or… maybe I don’t have to turn you in to General Organa,” he said.
BB-8 gave the back of Poe’s ankle a light shock.
“Uh oh,” BB-8 whined, his favorite way of conveying dismay over a situation gone terribly awry. “Uh oh. Uh oh.”
Hux looked shocked by Poe’s proposition. He opened his mouth but was unable to gather his words at first.
“It’s… it’s your decision,” Hux said, practically sticking his nose up in the air to maintain his aloof aura. “Though I would have you know that I am quite young to die, by most standards… and I do have a cat, a little orange Tooka tabby named Millicent who would be without an owner if anything were to happen to me. I’m sure Dopheld Mitaka is taking care of her now, but he’s always transferring ship. He would hardly be able to maintain a long-term, stable home for Millie. I rescued her from the Dominion Star Destroyer, shortly before it was destroyed by a Rebel fleet. Sometimes, it isn’t my own death at the hands of you Rebel scum that I dread, so much as what would happen to my feline darling if…”
“Alright, alright,” Poe cracked. “I won’t turn you in, Hugs… under one condition.”
“Oh, thank you, Dameron, anything…” Hux sputtered before gathering himself again. “Uh… state your terms. I might agree to them if they are reasonable.”
“You’ll spend the entire New Year’s Fete Week with me and participate in all the holiday festivities,” Poe said. “And watch whatever holiday holovids BB-8 requests. Even if we’ve all seen them thirty over times before… Oh. And you won’t try to leak Resistance info or call your First Order cronies or attack anyone when I untie you. Do that, and I’ll let you hide in my room. If you play nicely, I might even consider getting you a ride back to the First Order when the week is over, just to make sure that there’s someone to take care of Millicent.”
Hux gave him a long, scrutinizing look, as if he were waiting for a catch. There was none. He rolled his eyes and said:
“I consent to your asinine terms, Dameron.”
“Desperate Poe,” BB-8 heaved a binary sigh, rolling off to the corner, ashamed of his owner’s weakness to cute pasty generals and sob stories about Tooka Cats.

OOC INFORMATION:
What’s your name? Naya
How old are you? 20+
Preferred pronouns: She/Her
Timezone: CST
IC INFORMATION:
Character Name: Dorcas Amaia Meadowes
What’s a hobby or pastime that your character enjoys? Dorcas enjoys smoking weed. She likes to smoke before she leaves her house to take the edge off, and she definitely has to smoke at night when she’s alone (although it does not do much for her paranoia). It started when she was young, younger than she cares to admit, but she is not ashamed of it. While she will occasionally drink, smoking is her first choice because it leaves her with a semblance of control she loses when she gets drunk.  
Do you have any preferred ships or anti-ships? I am very much open to interpretation over development! It’s easy for me to wish for a ship, but what is even better is when another mun sees something in my character that might fit like a puzzle piece to theirs. With Dorcas it is a bit complicated. She’s a very tactile person. Human touch is something she needs as a release from all of her anxiety, and after she realized how much intercourse calmed her down, she learned to never go longer than a week without ‘releasing steam’. That isn’t to say she couldn’t be romantically involved, but it would be something I would want to plot out to see what end game might be. I tend to play Dorcas as bisexual with a preference of women over men. I don’t have set characters I believe she would be attracted to over others because I simply do not know who she would click with and who would find her mentality appalling! But in an ideal situation, I would like for her to have at least one established connection.
What do you think your character’s Boggart would be? If their greatest fear isn’t something that could easily take a solid form, what is it? Why? Ever since she was a little girl, Dorcas has feared darkness above all else. Seeing. It’s simple. Fundamental. When encased in darkness, Dorcas is at her weakest, and she knows it. I’m not sure if a boggart could embody darkness, but if it could, that would be what she saw. She’s not big on ‘not knowing’, and to her, that’s all that darkness symbolizes. The unknown.
What’s your character’s biggest pet peeve? Judgmental people. She was always the first in school to pipe up when purebloods with chips on their shoulders started in on some unfortunate muggle born or half-blood. Slander never settles well on her ears. It usually prompts her ‘act before think’ mode. Even now it is possibly her biggest trigger. She will run into any situation. She will fight back to anyone who inserts themselves in business that does not belong to them, whether friend or foe. Similarly, she does not like being judged. A little venom enters her words when she senses someone is judging her, whether friend or not. She simply isn’t keen on the idea of someone looking down on her for a personal opinion. (fun, fun hypocrisy plots here if she ever talks with someone who believes fully in blood supremacy!).
What would you consider to be an eccentricity of your character? Dorcas sleeps an average of 3-5 hours a night. As a kid she woke up ridiculously early because lying in bed made her overactive imagination conjure up every boogey man it could find, and as Dorcas grew older, the amount of time she could actually stay in bed grew slimmer and slimmer until one day she realized she did not need much at all to survive.
What is/was your character’s favorite subject in school? Why? Defense Against the Dark Arts. School was hard for her. She tried. Hell, did she try. Considering her home life resided in the muggle world, awe alone propelled her to do as well as she possibly could. The problem was, no matter how hard she tried, most of the time she could not put all of the pieces together. Reading and writing and testing— those things always left her wound up like a jack in the box. Defense was not like that. It was all action and showing how it’s done. She excelled in showing out, and being at the front of the pack for once had a powerful effect on her.
What time of day is your character’s favorite? What time of year? Dorcas spends all night waiting for the break of day. She is a sunrise over sunset kind of person, and while she is not the type to get all poetic, the way the sky changes from dark and oppressing to full of color in a span of minutes is enough to make her believe in the spontaneous overflow of feeling some old man coined a century before. Sunsets mean endings; sunrises always promise something new, something she has not seen yet. Similarly, her favorite time of the year is spring. Winter tends to make her anxiety worse. Her mom always said it was the lack of sunshine, and sure enough, when the grey clouds receded to make way for bird chirpingly bright sunshine, the knot in Dorcas’ abdomen untangled slightly.
What’s your character’s Patronus? If they can’t conjure one, what would it be if they could? Why? A gazelle. “The cheetah is their chief predator - also a fast speed animal. However, they are able to out run the cheetah because of their better movement’s. Cheetah’s usually run in a straight line but the gazelle can move in zigzag’s. This is to avoid the cheetah from catching them. They, however, have a tendency of turning around to find out if their predator is almost catching up with them. When they do this, it gives the cheetah a chance to kill them.” (https://www.auntyflo.com/magic/gazelle)
What is your character’s biggest vice (bad habit or immoral craving)? Dorcas would not call it immoral, though others certainly do. Her proclivity to believe sexual partners are as casual as a drinking mate tends to make the brows of other more prominent people arch in the most scandalous manner. Dorcas would never call herself a hippie, but anything less than free love seems anal retentive to her. She believes in the carnal aspects of humanity. Love, war, it’s all the same at the end. She has urges; ignoring them only makes her anxiety worse. Others believe she does not have a moral compass. She is waiting for those people to find a better stress relief than an orgasm before she listens to their advice.
Is your character an introvert or extrovert? How well do they handle social situations? Dorcas is extraverted by far. One of the main reasons her anxiety flares up so badly at home is the fact that the solitude allows the silence to grow to deafening volumes. Dorcas needs to bounce her thoughts off of someone to hear what she needs to do or sort out how she’s feeling. Because she has not found a way to talk about her anxiety, which is why it keeps on growing and festering. She prefers company to solitude because when she is left alone too long, the paranoia becomes too much, and the more withdrawn she becomes.
What is your character’s diet like? What’s his or her favorite food? Food is a comfort for Dorcas. I imagine her anxiety gives way for attention disorders, and in Dorcas’ case, it manifests as hyperactivity. As a result she picks at her food rather than eating most of it, but she is always one of the first to mention food. Her favorite food is breakfast. She isn’t the best chef, but over years of trial and error, she’s grown really proud of how good her pancakes are.
How do you think your character’s psychological issues have manifested and changed your character up to this point? Dorcas has always been scared. When she was young she would lay in the bed next to her mother and cry out for her. In school, she made sure purebloods knew she was not someone to underestimate so that she would not be one of the ones at the mercy of prejudice. Now she is the first to volunteer for missions because putting the fate of something so important in someone else’s hands is too risky. The way she releases all of that pent-up energy is doing something. She is not the type to sit on her hands and wish the bad away. She does not have time to wait. People question her act first mentality, but it is all Dorcas has ever known. In her eyes, they won’t win the war by talking people to death.
Give us a headcanon for your character. Anything is acceptable. Dorcas has a blind cat. She found it as a kitten, screaming for help because all of its siblings and its mother had been struck by lightning. It is not the most attractive cat (scars where his eyes once were, no fur on the tip his tail, and he walks with a slight limp), but she loves him more than nearly all humans because he ‘sees’ her at her worst and loves her anyway. He’s awful to her guests, and she never gave him a proper name because she never planned to keep him. So she simply calls him, ‘Stray Cat’.

3-17 for the oc question thingy for pulse!
aaaaa thank you for asking Sasha! It makes me genuinely happy that other people care about my characters :>
Anyways, here we go! Some info about Pulse (it/its)!
3. How competent would your oc be in a survival situation? Would they be better off on their own or in a group?
If it has access to metal, it can probably cobble together something to get it out of a jam. That said, if anyone else were there with it, it would not try to rescue them. It almost exclusively works alone.
4. Is your oc a daredevil, or more of a scaredy cat? What is the most daring thing they’ve done in their life?
It isn’t consciously a daredevil, but it definitely leans more towards that end of the spectrum. That one time when it ripped apart a brouscari freighter just for the hell of it was pretty damn daring. The brouscari are already crazy militaristic with a strong dislike of outsiders, so actively doing something to piss them off like that was a super risky move.
5. What is your oc’s patience like? When waiting for something, are they able to sit still or do they fidget? How do they fidget?
Pulse is definitely a fidgeter. If it doesn’t have something to occupy its hands with at all times, it becomes visibly agitated, which is noteworthy given its generally-grouchy demeanor. This is one reason why the Facility has allowed it to keep a rubber ball in its cell to play with, despite no one knowing where it got the ball from.
6. How much thought does your oc put into what they wear/look like? Any reason why?
It doesn’t wear anything. It’s never had any real need to, and it sees no reason to start anytime soon.
7. Does your oc collect anything? What about of knowledge or facts? How big is their collection?
It’s not really a collector, no.
8. What kind of flavours does your oc like? How much spice can they handle?
It doesn’t eat. Like with the clothes thing, as a being made of pure dark matter, it doesn’t really need to.
9. How easily does your oc trust others? Any particular reason why? How trustworthy are they themselves?
It is not a trusting sort of being. But, if you ask it something, you will get an honest answer, even if it’ll deliver that answer in a really backhanded, passive-aggressive sort of way. It sees itself as so beyond our sphere of understanding that lying is just kinda pointless.
10. What are some of your oc’s pet peeves? How do they handle it when the annoyance doesn’t stop?
It doesn’t like being kept in small spaces with nothing to do, being constantly badgered by people asking it inane questions. As you can probably imagine, it isn’t exactly getting on with its time in AORF custody.
11. Does your oc have a good sense of direction? Do they get lost easily?
It doesn’t really need to know how to get anywhere now that it’s in a prison cell all the time, but it generally knows how to find things.
12. How well would your oc handle being placed in a leadership position?
“FOOLISH BEINGS OF CARBON AND LEAD! GROVEL BEFORE MY INCOMPREHENSIBLE SUPREMACY, FOR I AM THE ARTIFICER OF YOUR SUBJUGATION! AHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!!!!”
13. What is your oc’s confidence like? Are they self-confident to the point of being arrogant? Are they terribly self-deprecating?
Oh, it knows it’s the coolest shit around, and it does not try to hide that.
14. What is your oc’s speech like? How loud are they usually? Do they have an accent or a stutter?
idk, I imagine it with a slight Brooklyn accent, and with a very terse and abrasive sort of speech style, but that’s kinda all I’ve got atm.
15. What is your oc’s memory like? Do they remember certain things better than others? Do they have any strategies to better remember things?
It has a memory like a steel trap. No specific strategies that it uses, but any information that enters its brain stays there forever.
16. How affectionate is your oc? How do they convey their affection? By being touchy, or through more subtle ways?
There is exactly one other sentient being it actually enjoys interacting with. (and i haven’t posted her yet, so idk how to really elaborate on this question lmao)
17. How polite is your oc? Do they know how to act in a formal situation? How would they *actually* act in a formal situation?
It is not polite. At all. Facility personnel who have spoken with it describe it as a “jackass”.

now seriously isn't the time for any white people to be pulling that "let's see it from both sides so we can feel uppity and intellectual" bullshit about this issue of white supremacists/nazis going out and spewing hate. If you may be one of those people just think... you're privilege allows you to be able to have these opinions because your life and liberties aren't on the line. Think before you speak, and decide if playing the devils advocate in a discussion on this topic is worth contributing to the problem. Here is a list of debate topics I suggest you spend time on so you don't contribute to the growing problem of complicit racism and prejudice: is life absurd and meaningless? where do we go when we die? if actions speak louder than words, why is the pen mightier than the sword? which is better, dogs or cats? Cake or pie? Hot dogs or hamburgers? Any of these topics are great because they do not contribute to the continued oppression of any group of people! I personally do not enjoy debating but I know a lot of people do and I understand it's general value, so please, have at it. I also do not argue politics on the internet (although I do not consider debating if white supremacists should say their trash opinions out loud to be real politics anyway). If you try to argue the points I've made here with me, I will not respond because odds are me debating you will not change your mind and be a total waste of my time. But feel free, I'm fine with narrowing down my follower list more. I find debating on the internet to be like shouting into a black void of nothingness. It may make you feel better for a moment, but doesn't actually do much for the world. I felt a need to put my opinion out there today because I refuse to be a complicit bystander. This status wasn't as much about changing people's minds (although it would be cool if it did), because that generally doesn't happen on the internet (as my growing up on social media has taught me), as much as it was about me staking my stance in this shitty historical period so I don't look back with regret on being a cowardly bystander. I will also be attending the anti-white supremacy rally on Saturday and if and when I have the money (which may take a while because I'm a poor college student) I will most assuredly be donating to organizations that combat racism/antisemitism/homophobia/transphobia/sexism/xenophobia/etc.
Also! If you've managed to get to the end of this rambling post, feel free to take the time to comment about your fave non-profit organization that will help POC in this time of fear and contention, I do not know many and I'm not sure which are great and which are bad, so feel free to educate me on this point!
