"A Green Queen" AU
Chapter IX
TW: Character Death
Bowser hobbled down the stairwell with Kamek trailing at his left side. His patience was low with the Prince, he'd been away from the castle longer than he expected and wanted to finish the preparations for Luigi's coronation. He hurried down the chamber and once the two had reached the bottom of the stairs were perplexed but what they could see.
Most of the hall was pitch black with a flickering blue flame coming from the end of it. Kamek nervously waved his wand to provide some light, but was stopped by Bowser's tail. The King had noticed, very briefly, in the light of the torch, but more importantly the Prince's expression.
Soulless and cold.
Khufo's low-lid sea stained eyes peered into the cell as he muttered something to himself. Something that Bowser couldn't quite hear.
"Keep an eye on that boy.." Bowser started walking forward, "I was told that there were intruders?"
The Prince's expression remained, which prompted him to ask again.
"O-Oh, yes!", He smiled. The light reentered Khufo's eyes, he glanced at the slightly lit King. "One of them looked like your husband, so I just thought maybe you'd like to take care of him yourself."
"What?! Kamek!"
"Yes, sire."
Kamek waved his wand again and shot a small orb of light into the final cell. In it, a shaken up Yoshi was curled up around a small cloaked individual wearing a dry bones mask.
"Bring them forward."
Kamek did as such, his magic dragged the body towards the bars. The sudden jolt caused the hood of the midnight cloak to flail back, revealing dark brown bangs. His face still covered by the crackled bones.
Bowser let out a low growl of displeasure as he recognized the human.
"What are you doing here!? Don't you have any shame in going back on what was agreed on?! Couldn't even wait a week to see you damn brother, huh?!"
No response.
Khufo watched as Bowser's frustration grew with each question. Kamek glanced over and noticed the grin on the Prince's face.
"What is wrong with-"
"You know... I was surprised when it was rumored you got tricked into marrying that... Thing.", Khufo began.
He stood up and gestured for Kamek to place the husk of Mario back to the yoshi.
Kamek looked up at Bowser, who nodded, which reassured him to do so. As he placed Mario down, the yoshi snuggled him in again, shaking.
"You always seemed to fail getting the Princess after all your efforts... It must've been hard to have to do what you did alone." He sighed staring directly at Mario. "Yet you married to one of the brothers, against your will. Ironic, isn't it?", Khufo noted. Slowly he stood up, his eyes flashed a slight purple tint once the amulet shook against his fur.
"What are you implying?!", Bowser growled. "No one said our love would be an easy one. She merely tricked me to get my attention.. Now I get to see her every month without the hassle."
Khufo grinned, "I mean no insult, your highness. I'm simply suggesting a better...solution.". Small streams of violet magic sifted through the sides of the amulet. The flow of it gathered into Khufo's eyes and as they did, the skull concealing Mario's head lifted it. Mario now glared at the Prince with the same purplish tint.
Kamek glanced at the cell then back at Khufo and flinched once he noticed.
"You have both brothers here now. One has let his guard down around you and the other...", his eyes trailed to Mario. "The other seems to be tired."
"Your offer is... tempting, but I-I'm married to-"
Khufo bit his lip furiously, his feathers ruffled and his tail began a low swish above the floor.
"Oh please, you and I know that's simply formalities... You've never had a problem taking what's yours. You don't have to use that excuse.", Khufo chuckled. "Oh great King Koopa, what you want is in your claws and all you have to do is grasp it. Mario has left the Mushroom Kingdom defenseless."
Kamek looked up at Bowser and his eyes narrowed seeing the King actually considering it. "S-Sire.. if I may."
Bowser nodded, his gaze never shifting from the cell.
"Would it really be YOUR win if you hadn't actually successfully defeated Mario yourself? W-We would be breaking your honor..."
"Honor?...", Bowser repeated. He desperately wanted to do so, it was what he built his entire life around.
'It has never been this easy..'
"What are you asking for in return?"
Khufo blinked in surprise, "Nothing, I simply want to see an ally of mine get what he wants. I know my father would've wanted this."
Kamek chimed in, "Your father wouldn't have done THIS. "
Khufo rolled his eyes, "He was a bit too tenderhearted..".
Bowser sighed, "Fine."
"Your Highness?!"
"Excellent!"
"I'm taking what's mine, Kamek. The children need a mother and... I've been patient.."
Luigi blinked his eyes open to a dimly lit room. He yawned and rubbed his eyes, looking around for the bathroom. He felt his forehead as he sat up and smiled a bit not feeling a surging headache.
He swung the cover off of himself and got off the bed. Once his foot touched the floor, he hissed a bit from the cold stone, but pressed on.
Despite the cold, his heart felt warmth remembering how gently Bowser had cared for him. He was still surprised that he'd listened, but was a bit more at ease with seeing the effort Bowser was going through to control his temper.
He searched, as good as his eyes could see, for the bathroom, but it seemed as if there wasn't any in his room. He gulped as his attention turned towards the large doors, knowing he'd have to leave to find one.
Opening them, he stepped out into the hall once the coast was clear and slowly made his way down them. He heard the rumbling of some clouds nearby and shook as a flash of lightning flooded the hallways.
'This feels familiar...'
He chuckled a bit, trying to shake the feeling, and keep his spirits up.
With every step, he carefully looked around, almost fearful of what would jump out at him. As he got closer to the end of a hall, he noticed the rain pouring out onto the palace. Leaves were fluttering, dancing in the wind and lightning shot quickly in the distance shortly after the thunder boomed.
A large silhouette appeared, silently at the other end of the hall.
Luigi turned around and flinched, but his fear faded once he saw the familiar face.
"Bowser!", He beamed. "O-Oh, um. I couldn't find a bathroom and I wanted to check out the storm happening outside. I didn't mean to leave.. W-Well I did, but I meant if it seems like I did then, then I didn't? Hehe..."
Bowser rumbled lowly, his brows furrowed and his eyes were closed as he fought his conscience.
His claw reached behind his back, pulling something off of his shell. He took up the item and tossed it towards Luigi.
The body tumbled and flailed before landing at Luigi's feet.
"Mario..?"
Horror shot through his body as he looked up at Bowser. His knees fell to the ground as he scrambled towards his brother's body and pulled his head to his chest.
"Please, please wake up! What have you-"
He didn't even see Bowser move, yet his claw was somehow covering his lips.
Bowser lowered his jaw down to Luigi's ear, so much so that he could feel the shakiness in his breath once he spoke. "We need to go. The Prince isn't as sane as you thought. He wants me to-"
The King paused as he looked down only to be met with Luigi's rage. His eyes glowed with fury.
With the tears that built in his eyes, Luigi he bit down on Bowser's claw to free his mouth.
"ARGH! LOOK-", he began as he rubbed the bitten finger. "You can yell at me all you want later, but we need to-"
Another flash of light and adherent rumble interrupted him.
"Bowser~ My father's DEAR friend. You've finally caught him."
The thunder rumbled again, however the strikes were inched closer. The time between each rumble shortened.
"You have them where you want them, so do it. Kill them!", Khufo cackled.
Luigi panicked as his attention turned to Bowser whose back was turned to him.
"......What? What is he talking about? You just told me he-"
"You'll get the Princess, a strong, united kingdom. Nothing would ever stand in your way again once they're gone. Isn't that what you planned!", Khufo continued.
Bowser stood still and avoided Luigi's eyes, the moment Luigi noticed his hesitation he started to breathe heavily, angrily.
'He... he's really going to do it..'
'I WARNED YOU'
'No...'
Luigi hoisted his brother up onto his back quickly and took a deep breath before he challenged all his energy to his hands to hold his brother steady.
The thunder rumbled...
And the lightning....
Daisy blinked her eyes open, a light ringing present in her head as she felt the light pattern of rain hitting her face.
The yoshi licked her cheek before it turned its attention towards the large hole at the side of the palace. Bits of the stone and sand solidified to glass and char. As she stood up, another rumble knocked her off balance causing her to hold onto the yoshi's saddle.
Peering out, a stray purple light shot from floors above them and into the palace fountain below. A shrill roar echoed into the sky followed by a crackle of lightning, and the patterned stomping feet of troops heading towards the destruction.
As she made her way to the edge, she could see the dismay of the Koopa Troopa below. A few dropped their spears, while others kneeled in fear and sorrow. She'd never seen them cry before.
She climbed onto the yoshi and as they floated down to some rubble to hide, as she looked over to the pile of debris, she covered her mouth.
Kamek stepped forward behind Luigi, whose eyes still glowed with a soft, conflicted fury. Below them was Bowser's sprawled body.
It laid under some rubble and as Daisy looked closer she could see pieces of his shell fragmented further below in the sand and stone. It almost looked like it was green glass created from the sand.
Spotty went over to join the troops and as they saw the mess, they gasped.
The soldiers exchanged looks at one another and before they could say anything, Spotty yelled out in the rain. "ALL HAIL, QUEEN LUIGI!"
It echoed in the rain for a bit and the troops repeated their words once before a light hum fell on the army.
The soldiers began to bow and chanted:
"Ashes and Stone. Ashes and Stone. For today, a King has fallen."
They began to take up the body, still chanting after they removed some rubble and picked up as many shell pieces as they could find.
"The Stone was sturdy, but the Sun scorched his scales and now his Ashes remain dormant."
A few soldiers cried as the collected what they could. A few more were called over to get the body to the ship and help slow the bleeding.
"His enemies shall tremble in the roar of his name, one carved in the Stone and one that is sung from the Ashes of his grave."
Luigi watched as they carried him off, his hands clenched tightly to his brother's shorts as he trembled.
Kamek looked taken aback, "Your majes-... Your Highness, w-we should regroup.. the ship is ready to depart..."
"ASHES AND STONE, ASHES AND STONE. FOR TODAY KING BOWSER HAS RISEN!"
Luigi turned to Kamek slowly and tiredly, "Ok..".
He looked down at the remaining troops, who were waiting for his verdict. Spotty smiled proudly as they waited.
"I-I...", He began. "I...."
'I can't do this.'
Kamek saw his distress and stepped up beside him, "Don't worry, I'm right here.."
Luigi nodded solemnly. "Tonight, Bowser has...", He choked up. "His condition is dire. I know, I-I'm not the ruler you wanted... Nor am I half as much of a leader as he..was... But from here on out, I stand before you as your Queen. Whether the King chose me or not, I will make sure his legacy...li.."
Luigi couldn't keep the tears in, they streamed down his face in anguish.
'That idiot...'
The Koopas kneeled down and began to hum lowly, but in unison, as they grieved with their Queen.
Kamek hummed the melody, and placed a claw on Luigi's shoulder.
"Ashes and Stone. Those are the two things the Koopa have built their morals on. With Ashes, they provide life to the Darklands and despite how dim they look are a sign that the land that was scorched is healing. The Stone can hold those ashes.. it is strong, it is sturdy... Even with its cracks, as long as there are many, no fortress is easily broken."
Luigi took a minute to collect himself. All he could utter were a few words.
"I'm so sorry... I'm so...so sorry..", he cried.
Luigi had passed by the infirmary once or twice but was denied access inside by the healers
As he walked down the hall, a ring of guards followed him around, keeping pace with his every step.
"We'll be arriving to the Mushroom Kingdom shortly, your highness."
"......Alright."
"Your brother has recovered well, but hasn't spoken a word to the healers or his aid."
"I don't expect him to...Where is Kamek?"
"He is waiting for your approval at the airships. He wants to go with some Shy guys to tell the children the news-"
Luigi paused. "He..". Luigi hurried to the docking levels and saw Kamek orchestrating a ship to leave. "You can't!"
Kamek looked at him, sorrow filled his eyes. "We've discussed this.."
"And I still say we shouldn't! Not until I-"
Kamek turned to the guards and motioned for everyone to leave.
As the door shut behind them, he took off his glasses to reveal tears that swelled in his eyes.
"It wasn't your fault, but we can't keep it from them forever."
"I need more time, please!"
"Your Highness, the news will spread once the Empire regains its forces and we'll be vulnerable.", He cried. "I understand you need time, but with every second we don't regroup and tighten our ranks, the more we-"
Luigi took his claw and held it tight, "Please... I need just a day.."
Kamek sighed then turned towards the balcony. "Yes, your highness.."
Luigi beamed slightly and gave Kamek a tight hug. ".... I want them to know... I really do, but I don't even know where to begin with telling them about ALL of it."
Kamek patted his back, "I know...". He moved slowly out of the hug and cleared his throat. "Now, do you remember what he said to you?"
Luigi nodded, "The Prince wasn't who we thought...?"
Kamek smiled nervously letting out a heartbroken chuckle, "He was never the best with words. I guess that was my fault in the end.. And then what happened?"
"The Prince showed up and said that my brother and I were supposed to be killed.. by him. I couldn't think straight after that... I didn't mean... Every time I thought he was better... If I had listened to him, he wouldn't be-"
"The King knew it wouldn't be something you'd take lightly." Kamek sighed, "He wasn't going to go through with it.. He told the Prince that it would be entertaining to see your reaction to your brother's..."state" and took him to get him out of the cell. Once we made our way out of the prisons, he ordered me to get the troops and ship ready for a swift departure."
Luigi blinked, "So then I wrongfully kil-..."
Kamek looked at him, "No, no... You didn't, your highness please.. j-just let me finish."
Luigi nodded as he choked back tears, his eyes still swollen from the previous night.
"He was going to collect you quietly from your bed, since he presumed you'd still be asleep. It was supposed to be a quick getaway, so we could figure out later what to do about the Prince.... predicament.", He said. "I had noticed something wasn't right after watching the lightning's patterns shift from sporadic to uniformed. It seemed like something... Or...someone, was charging each strike to aim towards the palace. Before I could stop it with my own spell, seeing as it was getting closer to your room, it struck... I-I thought it was the Prince, but his powers, at least from what I know about his father's... Never harnessed electrical assistance."
Luigi looked at his hands, "I...I thought."
'No...'
Bowser turned as he saw a shot of magic heading towards Luigi and quickly took the hit with his shell. Khufo laughed, "Really?! After having the odds in your favor?! You still want him? Do you realize the opportunity you're missing out on! SHE'LL be yours! You'll finally be happy!"
Bowser ignored his jeering and pressured remarks. He moved Luigi from his chest only to see his eyes filled with tears. He ignored it and yelled "YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE! HE-"
"WHAT IS HE TALKING ABOUT?!"
"I SAID I'LL EXPLAIN AFTER-"
"NO, YOU CAN'T KEEP DOING SAYING SHIT AND JUST EXPECT ME TO JUST-
"Look I'm SORRY, ok?! I know it's a lot to believe in me right now but I PROMISE, this time I need you to leave!"
Luigi stepped back from him as his eyes gleaned, another flash of lightning crackled, "No. Were NOT doing this again. I'M not doing this again! BOWSER MY BROTHER IS DYING AND YOU WANT ME TO TRUST YOU?!"
Another flash erupted, closer than the last.
Khufo grinned from their bickering. He clawed opened his amulet, the aloe vera emblem wilted entirely on the brassy coating. The magic festered into his body as he unsheathed his claws. His fur prickled and relished the powerful feeling that coarse through his veins. It began to glow a luminescent violet, pulsing with his heartbeat, a distorted cackle left his lips as his hypnotic eyes focused on the three in front of him.
"You silly turtle."
Bowser heard the laughter and frantically glanced back at the Prince before he looked towards the sky then back at Luigi. He knew that the small plumber wouldn't listen to reason, as upsetting as his chest knew it was, his conscience cleared as the rumbling started slowly above them.
"Luigi... Please, calm down.".
As he started to explain, Luigi couldn't hear the words that came next. It was too much for him to take in.
All he could register and replay was that Bowser had flung his paralyzed brother at his feet, mocked and schemed against him with the Prince and to finish it off he had the gall to stand before him and give a half assed apology.
'How could he stand in front of him pleading for him to understand.'
The final strike of lightning flashed as fast as his last thought. All of its charged branches struck the side of the palace as Luigi was about to yell.
In the same second, the Prince lifted up and shot his body forward towards the two, aiming for Luigi, but collided with Bowser as stood in front of him again, taking the full force of the attack.
Right through the Koopa's body.
With the last of his strength, Bowser pushed Luigi and his brother to the side as the wall collapsed above him.
Once the smoke had cleared, Luigi sat there stunned, right next to Mario's shivering body.
Kamek gave a weak smile, "I can see his passing is weighing on you, I know you didn't mean to strike him, but....", he paused.
'Tell him the truth.'
"We will drop your brother off at the Mushroom Kingdom like you asked... but we will need you to say your goodbyes.."
"What?.. But I thought I wouldn't..."
"You're not the first queen to have their husband killed.. accidentally or not. The powers you have were out of control and you weren't aware of them. Junior is still too young to rule and as much as I would like for Roy to be appointed, he isn't of royal blood.", Kamek took a deep breath. "You are now our Queen..."
'TELL HIM!'
Luigi's eyes widened as he tried to take in the information, "..I-I need to check on my brother..".
'Coward...'
As he rushed out of the balcony, he was met with the ring of guards that began to follow him closely.
His head spun as the events rolled around in his mind and he needed to distract himself and clear them out. Just for a moment.
Kamek shook his head then looked out at the stars and started to hum in grief.

Hang In There, Weegee!: bowser x luigi (CH 1)
based on THIS comic by @dibujos-de-la-orilla + some of my replies on that post
kamek thinks he hears an intruder in the royal office and goes to investigate
story under the read more
Hang In There, Weegee! (also on ao3)
Chapter 1, Chapter 2
“Mwuah! Hehe.”
Kamek stopped in his tracks, the sound of muffled giggling coming from behind Bowser’s royal office door. Who in the world would have the audacity to do such a thing in the king’s personal office?
The magikoopa adjusted his glasses with a huff; not on his watch!
BANG!
“Who is trespassing on royal property!?!” Kamek shouted, wand blazing. He would be sure to restore the lord’s honor even if-
Oh, it was just Bowser.
The koopa king crossed his arms, smoke billowing from his nostrils. Even while sitting he was easily 5 times as big as the royal advisor.
“King Bowser?!” Kamek exclaimed, confused. He could have sworn he’d heard a second voice. There was no way he was that old... was there?
“You just gonna stand there or what?” Bowser snorted impatiently, tapping a claw against his arm. “I’m still busy doing all this paperwork, ya know.”
Said paperwork was scattered across the desk and floor, probably a result of the advisor’s hasty entrance. Flushing in embarrassment, Kamek quickly waved his wand and whisked the documents into organized piles.
“Many apologies, Your Industriousness; I thought I heard...” Oh dear. The older koopa felt rather silly now, taking his glasses off and cleaning them on his robe to give his hands something to do.
“Well? Out with it!”
The king scratched around his collar in irritation.
“A-ah, it was nothing, Sire. Sorry to have disturbed your paperwork, I’ll be going now.” And with a quick bow the magikoopa fled in a puff of smoke, not wanting to anger the king any further.
...
“Phew!” A loud sigh was heard from behind the large koopa’s shell, The green clad Mario brother hopping down from the other’s spikes. “I almost-a thought he caught us!”
“Uuuuggh,” Bowser groaned, sliding down his seat. He wasn’t worried about the tears in the fabric, it was self fixing, like most of the furniture in his castle.
Rubbing a paw over his eyes the king lazily turned to look at his secret human boyfriend of 3 months, offering his other paw for him to take. Luigi smiled and placed a gloved hand in his, Bowser tugging him into a side hug.
“Crud,” He sighed, giving the plumber an affectionate squeeze. “We really gotta tell someone ‘bout us soon. Sneaking around’s fun but it’d be so much easier if you could just come into the castle without immediately getting attacked, y’kno?”
“Maybe the next-a time you go to-a capture ‘Princess Peach’,” Luigi winked.
“Oh shut up,” Bowser laughed, giving the other a little shove before unclasping his collar and rubbing his neck. “I think you actually gave me a hickey, Green Bean.”
“Really?” The plumber went to touch the other’s neck, Bowser leaning a little lower so he could reach. “Does it hurt?” He asked, gently pressing against one already starting to bruise.
“Psshhh, naw. I’m the biggest, baddest brute around, and don’t you forget it!” He boasted.
Luigi hummed. “Okie dokie.”
“I’m lightning in a bottle! I’m an earthquake in a can! I-” Bowser would have kept going if it weren’t for the feeling of Luigi’s tongue laving over his bite marks. The king shuddered, eyes struggling to stay open when the other kissed his jugular.
“H-haaah.”
The plumber pulled away and grinned up at him. “Why don’t-a we make-a some more, then?”
Bowser gulped.
Oh boy.
BONUS:
'there was no way he was that old... was there?' is talking about old age and deafness
bowser was scratching around his collar because he was worried kamek would see the bite marks so he was trying to cover them more with his hand
'I'm the biggest, baddest brute around, and don't you forget it!' and 'I'm lightning in a bottle! I'm an earthquake in a can!' were taken from the list of bowser quotes from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

((I like the idea of Joe getting kidnapped by Bower and Princess Peach rescuing him. Bowser better start running. For real, her umbrella and frying pan are no joke.))
Oh Bowser would be regretting his decision to kidnap Joe the moment he received Peach’s letter letting him know she’s on her way to kick his ass for kidnapping her boyfriend/fiancé. Especially when she so easily did so in super princess peach.

BNHA Chapter 309 Spoiler Thoughts: Izuku and Inko Midoriya, and Some More Things Along The Way
The chapter leaks are here again!  Thanks to all the people on Twitter and here on Tumblr for providing us with scans and translations.  This chapter helps explain some things that a lot of us were wondering about.  Sadly, there’s still no Bakugo, or Shoto, or any other UA kids really; they’re only in flashbacks.  But, we do get to see what All Might and the Top 3 Heroes (Endeavor, Hawks, and Best Jeanist) are up to, so that’s something.  Anyway, remember to take what I say with a grain of salt until the official translations come out on Sunday:
The chapter starts a few minutes after Deku beat Muscular.  He’s flying through the air taking an unconscious Muscular tied up in his Black Whip.  The other Ketsubusu Academy students from the Lisence Exam see him too.  Thankfully the stubborn civilians from 2 chapters ago are willing to help Yo Shindo recover in exchange for not listening moving to the school shelters.  Also, Shindo’s barely conscious, but he does actually remember Deku.  He’s just not the same Deku as before.  Not much for me to say here except that I wonder if Shindo’s going to help spread the word about Deku’s actions.  Not just to his classmates, but I wonder if the words’ going to get out to the news and UA.  Actually, word might not even get that far since Shindo was only one of the few people in that exam that really even interacted with Deku...
Deku hands Muscular over to the police for them to take care off.  He also makes sure to cover himself up in Smokescreen to hide his identity.  So, Deku really is working in the shadows here.  It is best that the public doesn’t know what Deku is doing so that the LoV don’t track him down.  My man’s really going down the Batman route.  Oh, I also have to admire Deku’s smartphone here kept in this steel case.  I was going to say it’s a burner phone, but burner phones break easily for a reason and this one clearly doesn’t.  Maybe it’s a special one that can’t be tracked down.    
And we finally get to see All Might again!  He is actively working with Deku instead of just not knowing where his protege is.  He’s wearing casual clothes (jacket, jeans, sunglasses, the works) when he meets up with Deku in an alleyway.  I’m honestly glad that All Might is still supervising Deku.  I mean, Deku on his own would’ve been badass, but when you’re going up against people like AFO and Shigaraki, you’re going to need some help.  Especially when laying low.  Even with supervision, I still think Deku counts as a vigilante b/c I don’t think his license works if he’s not at UA.  I will believe this unless proven otherwise.  
It’s explained that the “wrapping” on Deku’s arms are actually gauntlets called “Mid-Gauntlets”, which are what are helping hold Deku’s arms together.  And they are VERY similar to the gauntlets that Melissa Shield from Two Heroes gave Deku.  Deku even says that All Might ordered them from the USA before travel restrictions were put in place.  I know that it’s only implied, but there’s no doubt in my mind that Deku’s new gauntlets were made by Melissa.  Even if you want to doubt it, at this point, Two Heroes (and by extension Heroes Rising and probably the upcoming 3rd movie, World Heroes Mission) are canon.  Honestly, I’m cool with it.  I liked Melissa and I’m glad her presence is still around (she was even in a Team-Up Mission chapter with Hatsume).  I do wonder if we’re ever going to see her in the main story.  It would be nice to see Melissa again.
The gauntlets are test samples and are used to enhance endurance.  All Might says that they can’t withstand 100% of OFA yet.  Which means that Deku actually beat Muscular with less than 100% unlike their first fight where Deku had to use over 100% just to knock him out.  So, does this mean that, say, Deku’s current 45% is stronger than his 100+% back in the Forest Camp?  Or maybe it was just the combo of moves and strategy rather then Deku just punching his way through things.
Small detail, but All Might’s phone goes off with that “I AM HERE” ringtone we heard before and Deku comments that this particular one is from All Might’s Silver Age TV Special!  It’s such a small thing, but I love that Deku still has that All Might fanboy in him despite everything 💚!  Somethings truly never change.
And back to the Top 3: Endeavor, Hawks, and Best Jeanist!  Endeavor and Best Jeanist are teaming up to kick a villain’s ass while Hawks is talking to All Might on the phone.  It looks like Hawks got a few costume changes particularly his visor/glasses which look more boxy than they did before if that makes sense.  Oh, and they’re also helping All Might work with Deku.  Makes sense since all three vowed to help take down Dabi earlier and Shigaraki and AFO definitely extend from that.
Deku’s Danger Sense is going off, so he’s probably going to check out any danger he can find in case it’s the LoV.  I do wonder if that harms Deku still.  It was said that it felt like a stabbing in his head and it must’ve been bad enough for the 4th OFA Holder to live in the forest away from society.  Man, I really hope our boy is ok (I know he’s not really, let me have this).
But yeah, Hawks (still wingless, but with a nice little undercut btw😳) explains that Deku's afraid of dragging other people in his battles like All Might.  Hawks also goes on to say that it’s best to take the initiative in taking down AFO and Shigaraki rather than waiting for them to appear all powered up.  He also wants All Might to keep supporting him despite the difficult position he’s in (remember that All Might’s technically Qurikless again and can’t really fight on his own).  It makes sense for them to go after the Villains again while they can.  If Deku fought Shigaraki while Shigaraki was at full strength, Deku would lose easily.  Even at 75%, Shigaraki was able to kill and injure A LOT of people, and Deku was lucky to even make it out there alive.  They need to find Shigaraki SOON!  
Flashback to Central Hospital before Deku jumped UA ship!  Recover Girl and Central Hospital’s high-tech were responsible for many of the patience recovering quickly and being discarged.  Deku was just there a little longer than the others.  So, we can assume that all our UA kids and some notable heroes made it out alive after being treated.  Still don’t know what happened to some people like Tamaki and Fat Gum tho 😭.  
All Might and Deku’s mom, Inko (thank god she’s ok), are by Deku’s bedside as his casts are taken off.  Deku’s doctor (who looks like Super Mario/Luigi; the whole Super Mario crew must run this damn place.  Where’s Bowser and Princess Peach) explains that despite his former warnings about his ligaments, Deku’s limbs are still functioning because he’s not the same as he was before.  So, before, Deku’s injuries were like his limbs were exploding from the inside, but this time those “explosions” were able to escape his body.  Also his Black Whip cast helped keep Deku’s arm in tact so that he wouldn’t pulverize himself.  His ligimates are still degrading too, so Deku still has to be careful.  I think he might have a few more small scars too, but that could just be shadows or muscle lining from Horikoshi’s pen-work.  
Ok, honestly, I’m not sure how this logically works...  I’m no medical professional, but I assume this means that Deku’s built his body up so much that it’s naturally able to withstand more damage than before and that’s why he’s more durable.  But, I don’t know how Deku was able to let the “explosions” escape this time.  I get the reverse; I get how he got injured before, but I don’t get this.  Was it the Black Whip brace he made for himself?  I honestly don’t really understand this.  Maybe the official translations will clear this up.  Or Horikoshi will in a Tweet or Volume Extra.
And Inko is finally informed of OFA thank the gods!  She was in the top of my list of “People who should really, really know OFA and what’s going on with Deku because I swear...”.  She’s clearly shaken up as anyone would be, but I’m glad she at least knows what’s going on with her son.  Yes, she’s still worried, but at least she can stop guessing why all this is happening.  
Deku announces the reason why he won’t go back to UA and it’s basically that Shigaraki can sense where Deku is and he doesn’t want to see anyone else close to him get hurt and/or die.  So, basically what I thought would be the reason.  Absolutely no surprise there.  But, going after Shigaraki and AFO first was originally Deku’s idea, so that’s something new.  Kid’s bold.
And this broke my heart 💔!  Inko insists that Deku stay with her to stay safe, but Deku knows what he has to do.  So, he thanks his mom, thanks her for making him happy, and tells her that he’ll be ok and that he’ll come back home with a somber smile on his face.  We see a flashback to Little Deku and Inko too when they were happier.  Bro, I don’t even know what to say.  I am in tears just writing this 😭  I’ll just post these two panels so y’all can cry with me.  I will never recover from this.  I’m fucking devastated.  You better come home, Deku: 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
*sniffs* All Might remembers what he said to Inko.  He remembers how he said that he will protect Deku with his life.  All Might encourages Deku to go and he says that he’ll go with him with tears in his eyes.  He asks the Top 3 to help with this mission (finding Dabi) as their own mission coincides with Deku’s (finding Shigaraki and AFO).  I’m so glad all these adults are staying by Deku’s side throughout this.  It’s good to know that Deku still has support, though I wish it were from some of his friends too.  Maybe one day.
Deku goes to see Grand Torino in his hospital room to talk to him about OFA.  He mentions his friend and 7th Holder Nana Shimura.  Torino thinks he was responsible for killing Shigaraki (he really wasn’t let's be real).  He also tells Deku that Deku shouldn’t be so persistent in saving Shigaraki as killing can sometimes lead to salvation. Ok, few things:
1. I am surprised Grand Tarino is still alive.  I mean, we don’t know what happened to him after this talk, but at least he got to hear from Deku again.  It’s kind of nice to know that Tarino willingly passed down his cape to Deku too instead of Deku just taking it after his death.  Also, I’ve been watching some of Jujutsu Kaisen like everyone else has and this give me some Yuji & his grandfather vibes to it.  Knowing what happens there and that JJK’s magaka is good friends with Horikoshi, I have a sinking feeling I know what happened after this talk...
2. Deku looks so much older here.  Like, it’s not that cute, innocent baby face we knew at the beginning.  I don’t even know what it is exactly (maybe the eyes), but he just looks more mature here.  Also, his uniform some buttons down looks really good on him, I’m sorry but I need to mention that too 💚.
3. “Killing is a means towards salvation”.  Oh, boy...  I mean, I get it.  Some people just can’t be saved or captured in hopes of rehabilitation/redemption.  Sometimes killing people is necessary to save others.  But, Deku is not a killer.  He will try to save Shigaraki no matter what.  That was established again last chapter.   He tried to save Muscular for god’s sake.  But, I am curious if Gran Tarino’s words are going to hold any weight in the final fight. Like, will Deku have to kill Shigaraki?  What will that do to Deku as a person?  I’m really curious if Horikoshi is going to make Deku do this.
And finally, there’s a page showing off the Top 3, Deku, and All Might team up with the resolve to beat the LoV.  I am really interested to see where this goes.  Deku is working with the big Pro Heroes instead of his classmates/friends.  This hasn’t really happened before.  I also wonder if Shoto and Bakugo know what Deku’s doing then.  Because Shoto’s going to help Endeavor and his family find Dabi.  Endeavor’s activley helping Deku.  Also, Endeavor and Best Jeanist are both Bakugo’s mentors.  All Might too actually.  Look, maybe I’m making excuses to see my Origin Trio together again, but I do have to wonder if Shoto and Bakugo are involved somehow.
Welp, that’s it.  This chapter was a rollercoaster!  I was excited, I was confused, I was worried, I cried my eyes out at one point because THOSE TWO PANELS I CANNOT 💔😭!  I’m honestly just waiting for Horokishi to drop some major time-skip on us at some point.  I don’t want him to, but I won’t be entirely surprised if he does.  The end of this chapter is a good place to end if Horikoshi wants to segway into something else like, oh IDK, THE UA KIDS LET ME SEE THEM AGAIN HORIKOSHI PLS I’M BEGGING 💸  
Me @ Horikoshi almost every week:

Mini Fanfic #791: Wrath of the Certified Moms (Super Smash Bros Ultimate)
4:23 p.m. at Smash Mansion's Dining Hall......
It was quiet and Intense afternoon at the Mansion of Smash as everyone hides away and watch an unfazed Kazuya have himself a conversation with the Certified Moms Squads, who are not very happy with him at the point.
Peach: Mr. Kazuya. (Crosses Her Arms in a Not Pleased Yet Professional Like Manner) I take it that you are wondering why we wanted to talk to you at this very moment, yes?
Kazuya: No. I don't actually. But since we're here.....(Slams Two of his Feet On the Table One By One) Let's talk.
Samus: What the hell are you doing?
Kazuya: (Raised an Eyebrow at the Bounty Hunter Glaring at Him) Pardon?
Daisy: (Glares at Kazuya as Well) You heard the lady, buster. Why the hell do you have your crumby feet on the table!?
Kazuya: What? Am I not supposed to do that here or something?
Rosalina: (Simply Nodded) That is right. It's very rude and thoughtless.
Isabella: Not to mention unsanitary.
Tifa: This might be our first time meeting one another.....(Glares at Kazuya Harsh) But I know for a fact that you weren't raised on a damn farm.
Samus: Exactly. So if you know what's good for you going forward....(Starts Gritting her Teeth) We suggest you take your feet off the fucking table. Right now.
Kazuya: (Starts at the Glaring for a Brief Second Before Scoffing a Bit in Defeat as He Reluctantly Did What He Was Told) There. Happy?
Samus: (Glare Pierce Harder at the Man) Very.
Peach: ('Sigh') Now with that out of the way, Mr. Kazuya, after you fought Ganondorf and threw him off a cliff, is it true that you tried to do the same to Pit and Kirby afterwards?
Kazuya: What? You mean the Angel Boy and Pink Puffball? ('Heh') Yeah. I did. What of it?
Palutena: (Immediately Gets Up and Angrily Slams her Hands on the Table) ('SLAM') WHAT OF IT!? YOU ALMOST KILLED MY BABY, YOU MURDEROUS PIECE OF-
Bayonetta: (Immediately Got Up and Place Her Hands on Palutena's Shoulders to Calm her Down) Paulie dear, please. Calm yourself.
Tifa: (Gently Place her Hand on Top of Palutena's) Bayo's right. Don't let him get to you like this.
Palutena: How can you all expect me to be calm in a time like that!? (Tears Starts Falling Down on her Face) Have you forgotten what that bastard done to Pit!?
Peach: (Turns Around to Palutena with a Worried yet Understanding Frown on her Face) We understand how you feel completely, dear. Which is all the more reasons why you should let me do all the talking. You do trust us, right?
Palutena: Of course I do. ('Sniff') You girls are my family...('Sniff') I just....I just can't help not being upset, you know?
Bayonetta: (Gently Pulls Palutena into a Loving Hug) I know, my sweet, beautiful goddess. I know. But we all need to pull ourselves together and get Peach handle this. For our babies sake.
Palutena begins to looks up and see Pit, Kirby, and the Phantom Thieves hiding behind the living room's wall, witnessing everything going down in the dining hall.
Palutena: (Sighs While Finally Calming Herself Down) Right. I do need to pull myself together. (Turns to Pit While Quietly Saying 'I Love You' to Him With a Sad Smile Before Sitting Back Down)
Pit: (Smiles Softly) I love you too, mom
Kazuya: (Suddenly Starts to Chuckle Evilly For Almost Everyone in the Mansion to Hear)
Peach: (Raised an Eye Brow at Kazuya in a Very Unamused Manner) Something's funny to you, Kazuya?
Kazuya: Yes, actually. Here I thought participating in this kind of tournament would be somewhat interesting. I'd never imagined how pathetically soft amd weak minded all of you really are. But I suppose be too shouldn't be surprised by the outcome, since you have an embarrassment of a tyrant king and an annoying puffball as one of your competitors.
Ganondorf: (Growling Angry at Kazuya from the Distance With the Other League of Villains Members)
Kazuya: And worthless angel boy of yours was easily the weakest of them all that it's laughable at best.
Pit starts to frown sadly by Kazuya's words until Ren place a hand onto his shoulder while giving him a reassuring look that feels him to not to believe a single word he says. This, in it if itself, actually helps calm the angel down immensely.
Kazuya: Hell, he's better off being dead if any-
'CRASH'
Without a second thought, Peach angrily punched down the table I front of her, the ladies, and Kazuya so hard that it crumbles to the ground, easily breaking it into small, tiny pieces, much everyone's surprise and shock.
Bowser: Holy........
Samus: ........Shit........
Ryuji: (From the Living Room) EXCLAMATION MARK!!!!
Kazuya: (Starts Smirking at the Angered Princess While Being Unfazed by the Sudden Event) What's this now? Did I do finally struck a nerve, your highness?
Peach: (Immediately Grabs Kazuya By the Collar While Giving the Most Darkest, Piercing Glare Imaginable, Even For Her) Listen here, you insufferable, arrogant creep! I don't what made you the way you are right now, and frankly, I don't give a single damn about it at this point! All you need to know that if you're planning on continuing to set foot in this mansion, you don't EVER insult my babies and harm my family ever again! YOU HEAR ME!?
Daisy: (Immediately Got Up to Calm Peach Down) Woah there, cuz. Take it easy for us, okay?
Samus: (Got Up and Calm Peach Down as Well) Daisy's right, Peach. He's not worth the trouble at this point......
Peach looks back and forth the girls and Kazuya for a few seconds before finally calming herself down.
Peach: ('Sighs in Defeat') Okay......(Finally Let's Go of Kazuya) I suppose I should apologize for what happened just now. It wasn't lady like of me.
Daisy: (Chuckles Lightly) Are you kidding me? That was most badass thing I've ever seen yet! (Happily Hugs Peach) And it was all caused by my favorite cuz~
Peach: (Giggles Softly) I'm your only cousin, Daisy.
Samus: Yeah I'm gonna have to agree with Daisy this on. (Smirks a bit Playfully at Peach) I did not expect you to be this hardcore. I'm proud. Though, I think we might need to replace that table in a little bit.
Peach: (Giggles Softly Some More) I know. Thanks, you guys.
Kazuya: (Watches the Trio While Fixing his Collar and Shirt) ('Tch') Knew I should've ignored them if I had the chance.......
Peach: Kazuya Mishima!
Kazuya: (Turns Back to Peach) Yeah? What?
Peach: (Crosses her Arms While Glaring Darkly at Kazuya Again) Remember this well: If I EVER hear you pulled this stunt again, I will NOT hesitate to kick you out of this mansion and ban you from ever taking part of this tournament! Do you understand me!?
Kazuya was able to say something to the princess until his eyes suddenly begins to widened, as he comes to the realization that Peach's glare is starting to remind him of a woman from past. Who happens to be his deceased mother, Kazumi Mishima. It wasn't too long until he suddenly begins to get down on his knees and bow himself down to the princess in a traditional like manner, much everyone complete surprise.
Kazuya: I apologise for my foolish actions. It will never happen again.....
Peach: (Couldn't Believe What She's Seeing in Front of Her) Oh my.......I-I Mean! (Starts Clearing Her Throat Before Turning Away From the Fallen Man) As long as you got message, we'll hold you to it. Let's go, ladies. (Begins to Walks Away with Other Ladies Following Her)
Palutena gives one last harsh glare at Kazuya before walking away with the others. Leaving him to his lonesome self altogether. (While Still Being in a Bowing like Position).
Meanwhile.....
Bowser: (Eyes Widened After Witnessing Everything That Went Down Just Now) Well.........That happened?
Hades: (Starts Snicking) I know, right? Who would've thought the Devil Boy got whipped so easily?
Sephiroth: (Carrying Pichu in his Arms) I'm more surprise on how strong the princess has gotten. Mario's a lucky man.
Bowser: ('Tch') (Crosses his Arms While Looking Away) Yeah. Lucky jackass, bastard.....
Ganondorf: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Ridley: (Turns to Ganondorf) What gotten you in a good mood?
Ganondorf: Seeing this warm grovelling on the floor! (Crosses his Arms While Smirking Evilly and Triumphantly) Knew he wasn't shit from the beginning.
Ridley: But didn't he still beat you and threw you off a cliff?
Ganondorf: (Slowly Turns to Ridley with a Deadpinned Glare) Do you want me throw you off a cliff instead, Ridley?
Ridley: ('Sigh') No.......
Bowser: (Looking at Kazuya Shaking Slightly in the Ground From a Distance) Uhh....Guys? I think the new guy's crying over here. Saying about missing his mom or whatever.....
Hades: Ah yeah. Forgot to mention this sooner, but his mom died when he was little. Just found that one out when I was reading his inner thoughts earlier. So.....oops.
Sephiroth: The loss of a loving mother is never an easy feeling. He has my pity.
Pichu: (Nodded in Agreement) Pika. Pi.
Ganondorf: ('Scoffs') He can cry about her all he wants. (Starts Walking Away) He'll no sympathy from me.
Elsewhere in the Fitness Gym.......
Ike: (Paused his Training Session For a Moment) Hm?......... (Shrugs Before Resuming his Workout)

GHOSTS PG1
It was raining outside. Princess Peach was sitting in her chair in front of a fireplace while drinking tea and eating cookies shaped like stars. She was reading a book about romance and adventure. She sighed dreamily and thought about the days where she used to have all the time in the world to go on adventures with Princess Daisy when they were younger. They were like sisters, Daisy seems busy now a days. But so is she. She frowned at the thought of not having much time to have fun with Daisy or the Mario brothers. What was Daisy so busy with? For Peach, it was Bowser and a few other creatures causing so much trouble in the Kingdom. She's asked if Daisy had any problems like this in her Kingdom but she always tells her not to worry about it. 
Same for poor Luigi. He's told her that she see's him more as a friend. It's kind of a surprise to Peach since Daisy seemed to like him so much, but also she could understand why she left him. Not that he was bad or anything, he's great to her but he didn't exactly seem like her type. He's afraid of everything while Daisy wouldn't hesitate to go on a dangerous adventure if she was given the chance to. Peach knows about Luigi going on some dangerous adventures like fighting King Boo but he only does it when he has to save his friends or his brother Mario. She took another cookie off the plate and started eating it. Peach hoped that wouldn't happen to her and Mario. She loves spending time with him. She hoped one day she could get him and Bowser to stop fighting so much then maybe they'd have more time to spend with each other and have fun. Luigi can be there as well. She tapped her chin with the cookie as she pondered what she could do to have them spend time together. She's tried calling Daisy and see if she could get her to come over for games, she mostly comes around for tennis and other sports most of the time. Maybe she's going on her own dangerous adventures. Peach leaned back further in her chair and closed the book. If that was true, then lucky her. She must be having fun. She couldn't help but wonder why she never--She shook her head. Now hold on, she thought to herself, she's not sure whether or not that's true. She's probably just busy taking care of the kingdom. Why wouldn't she tell her all about her adventures if that was true? She used to always tell her amazing stories when she was off on her own. Peach put her book down next to the plate of cookies beside her and stood up. Perhaps tomorrow she could call the brothers and Daisy over to have fun. That would be--
The door flew open. "Princess! Princess Peach!" Toadsworth rushed in with a panicked look on his face. He stopped and tried to catch his breath.
Peach:"Toadsworth? What's wrong? What happened?" She rushed over to see if he was alright.
Toadsworth:"Mario, Luigi and King Boo are here!"
Peach:"W...what??" She took a step back. Why was he here? Especially now of all days. She was a little mad but more concerned about the brothers. Were they alright? Did he do something to them?? She rushed out into the hallway and made her way towards the entrance. Toadsworth called out to her but she didn't listen. She had to make sure they were alright. When she finally made it, she couldn't believe what she saw; Luigi looked hurt. Bad. Mario didn't seem too hurt, he was helping his brother carry King Boo on his back. Something was different about him. He looked...smaller. For a moment she thought he was close to death. But he was already a ghost, so that couldn't be possible....could it? She snapped out of her thoughts and rushed over to them. Luigi looked up at her.
Luigi:"Hi Princess...I know this looks bad but--"
Peach:"Here, let me help you." She said quickly. She took his crown off his head. When she did, that uneasy feeling in the air was gone and he looked less threatening. His eyes were no longer dark and he moved slightly. He was still weak and couldn't move on his own. She helped the brothers carry him to the guest room. He was laying in bed, the lights were off except the lamp next to him. It wasn't too bright. He moaned in pain and barely stayed awake. She turned to the brothers."What happened to you three?" She asked calmly. Luigi was sitting in a wooden chair next to the bed while Mario stood by Peach. Luigi spoke up first.
Luigi:"It's a long story. One I'm not sure how to explain..." He took his hat off and itched his head. They were soaking wet so Peach had the toads bring them towels and new clothes. Mario had a towel wrapped around his head to dry his hair.
Mario:"I'm just glad I was able to find you two in time." He looked at Peach."Sorry to bother ya so late, Princess. We didn't know where else to go." She shook her head.
Peach:"No, no, that's alright." She looked at Boo. He was shaking. She couldn't help but place her hand gently on his head. Mario gave her a warm smile. Sweet as a Peach, he thought. She's so caring to everyone it makes him love her even more. Peach gently took Boo's hand in hers and held it for a moment. "Boo? Can you hear me? You're safe now. It's just me...Peachy." He gently squeezed her hand. Luigi kept his eyes on him making sure he didn't try any tricks. She looked at Luigi."Can you tell me how he got hurt?" She asked in an almost serious tone."Any of you?" Almost as if she was a little mad. Luigi leaned back in the wooden chair.
Luigi:"Well, where do I start?" He itched his chin."I remember going in the forest, King Boo was there, we fought for a little bit until he got caught in someone's trap. I think that trap was meant for ghosts but I don't know who built the thing! There was another one that nearly took me out but luckily Mario was close by and saved us both!" Mario looked proud of himself.
Mario:"I was on my way to get some pizza for dinner when I heard these two screaming in the forest. I thought at first Boo here finally took him down until saw that they were both caught in the traps. I insisted we left Boo there but Luigi felt bad for him."
Luigi:"We could also see if he knows anything about these darn traps. They're too dangerous to leave carelessly around the place! I could've died!" Mario took the towel off his head.
Mario:"They were pretty close to your kingdom, Peach. Do you know who's been laying out these traps?" He asked with a worried look on his face. She shook her head.
Peach:"I had no idea about this. We need to find out whoever's been making such horrible traps and have them get rid of them at once before someone else get's hurt!" She looked at King Boo who was holding her hand to his head. He seemed to be half sleeping. She didn't want to push but she had to know if he knew anything about these traps. She looked back at the brothers and noticed they looked tired and hungry. She gently pulled her hand out of Boo's and walked past them."Why don't we get you three something to eat. I'm sure you're all very hungry." Mario licked his lips.
Mario:"You just made my night, Princess!" He smiled brightly. Luigi smiled a little.
Luigi:"Thank you very much, that would be nice." He glanced at King Boo who didn't move much. Mario followed Peach out the door. She looked back.
Peach:"Are you coming?" She asked.
Luigi:"Hm? Oh, um...sure." He took one last look at King Boo. He didn't move much still but at least he wasn't shaking so much anymore. He closed the door behind him. He wasn't sure if it was a good idea leaving Boo alone.
"Bark! Bark!" He jumped and yelped a little. He spun around and saw his good ol' pal Polterpup wagging his tail and panting. He smiled and gave him a hug.
Luigi:"Hey buddy! Boy, am I glad to see you." He itched the ghostly dog's head and he kicked his leg happily. He ran in a circle excitedly before sitting down in front of him."Listen, I need you to do me a big favor okay?" The dog cocked his head to the side."Can you stay with King Boo? I don't think he should be left alone in there." He leaned close and whispered."Just in case, you know, he's up to no good." The dog licked his face and he quickly stood up straight wiping the drool off his face. He chuckled and pat his head."Good boy, I'll bring you both dinner." The dog ran in a circle around Luigi happily before running through the door into the guest room. Luigi felt a little more at ease now and walked down the stairs to join Mario and Peach.
Mario and Peach spoke for a little while. Luigi spoke to some of the Toads for a little bit before they rushed off to hear what Mario and Peach were talking about. Luigi smiled at them. They looked like they were having fun. He frowned when Toadsworth rushed towards Princess Peach. He was saying something but Luigi couldn't hear him from where he was sitting. Peach sighed. She looked at Mario and frowned. He frowned and they looked at Luigi. He stood up and quickly made his way to them.
Luigi:"Something happen?" He asked with a worried look on his face.
Peach:"Well....it seems like Bowser wants to have a little talk with us..." She looked at Mario. He itched his head.
Mario:"....Right. Um, we need you to stay here and keep an eye on that ghost while we're gone...can you do that on your own, bro?" He swallowed.
Luigi:"Uhh...alright! Yeah! No problem...." He said with a smile but it went away when he looked down at his feet. He didn't want to stay by himself while they were out to meet Bowser. He really wanted to help them instead in case he tried anything. Peach gently touched his shoulder and he snapped out of his thoughts. He looked her in the eyes.
Peach:"Don't worry Luigi, if he gives you any trouble, you can borrow my vacuum, it's just as powerful as the one Professor E. Gadd uses." She said half jokingly. He chuckled and grinned at her.
Luigi:"I'll be fine. Really!" He said with a grin. She smiled brightly.
Peach:"We know you will. We believe in you." Mario smiled.
Mario:"Yeah! You can take care of that ghost no problem if he gives you any trouble!" He gently punched his brothers arm.
Luigi:"Haha, yeah I can." He picked up two plates, one with cake and cookies, and the other steak."You two becareful, alright? If you need me--"
Mario:"We'll be fine, don't worry about it!" He waved.
Peach:"I'll make sure Mario doesn't get hurt, Luigi." She winked. Mario laughed and held her hand as they walked out the door with Toadsworth. Luigi was left alone. He took in a deep breath and sighed.
Luigi:"Right then..."
Luigi walked up the stairs towards the guest room."Little buddy hasn't showed up yet, so I guess he's fine? I hope." He spoke quietly to himself. "I really hope I didn't make the wrong choice in bringing him here..." He swallowed. He made it to the door and gently knocked.
Luigi:"King Boo? You awake? Don't kill me or nothin' I...I uh, brought you dinner. Peach made it." He opened the door slowly and looked around the dark room. Everything was quiet. He looked towards the bed and gasped. He dropped the plates. King Boo was gone! And so was his ghostly dog friend!"OH-NO!" He yelled."W-where did they go?? Hello??" He ran around the room searching top to bottom for them."If this is a game of hide-and-seek, now's not the time!" He ran out of the room."Oh great!" He ran down the hallway and started searching the rooms for King Boo and his dog."King Boo? Little buddy? Where did you go??" He called out to them. He ran downstairs and tripped over his own foot. He hit the floor and moaned in pain. He was seeing stars. He quickly got up and started looking for the vacuum Peach was talking about in all the rooms. "I knew I shouldn't have left them alone!" He ran back up the stairs almost falling down again and searched through all the rooms until he finally found the vacuum in Peach's room in her closet."There it is!" It was pink with peaches on it. He left the room and started looking for them. Just then his dog appeared out from the ceiling and started barking. He wagged his tail when he stopped in front of Luigi. He smiled and sighed relieved to see his little buddy alright."Boy am I glad to see you." He said and itched his head. The dog barked and grabbed the vacuum. For some reason he tried to take it away from Luigi!"Hey! Drop it! Oh-no! Did he hypnotize you or something? Let go!" The dog did and he fell on his butt. He barked and flew away from him."Wait!" He started chasing after him. It seemed like the dog wanted him to follow though. He chased him to the roof. It wasn't raining much anymore. It was still wet so he was careful to climb up. He looked around and saw his ghostly dog wagging his tail and spinning around happily. He started jumping on the clouds and made it to the biggest one over the castle. He could see a familiar round shape sitting on top of the cloud with his dog. King Boo! He thought. He sighed and looked at the vacuum. He gasped and saw that the dog chewed it up. He swallowed."What now...?" He asked himself quietly. He took in a deep breath and sighed. He dropped the vacuum and started jumping from one cloud to another until he finally reached the top. King Boo wasn't looking at him. He was still small, almost as small as his Boo's. He still looked injured but not as bad as it looked before. Polterpup was sitting next him and wagging his tail. Boo reached his hand out and started gently petting the dog's head. Luigi blinked a dozen times before rubbing them. He wasn't sure if what he was seeing was real or if he was just seeing things. He slowly walked over to them and sat next to the dog.
King Boo:"....So....nice weather we're having, huh?" He chuckled a little. Luigi stared at him. He wasn't looking at him. His eyes were blue. Not what he was used to seeing. They were usually purple and black.
Luigi:"Uh....yeah. I guess you could....say that." He shrugged. The dog was wagging his tail still while looking back and forth at them. Everything was quiet and the dog stopped. He whined a little before taking off in the air and flying around playfully jumping from one cloud to another.
King Boo:"...So, uhm, Peachy and that plumber boy of hers left, huh?" He quickly looked at Boo and swallowed.
Luigi:"Uhh...." He tugged at his collar."I guess you could say that..." The ghost sighed now frustraited and looked at him.
King Boo:"Look, I'm not dumb, I heard them talking. I was invisible in the next room." Luigi flinched when he raised his voice. He growled a little and looked away. He wasn't too scared of Boo right now, seeing that he didn't have that gem on his head made him feel a little less worried. It was strange that he wasn't trying to attack him though. He didn't have the vacuum with him, this was his chance to take him out! So why wasn't he...? Luigi looked off into the distance to try and find what he was looking at. He saw Peach's ship sailing and they were heading off."Heh.....there she goes again." He said a little quietly. Luigi looked at him."So Peachy's got a new boyfriend I see. Right?" Luigi shrugged.
Luigi:"I honestly don't know. They seem like really good friends and do seem like a couple...but I'm not sure. He hasn't told me exactly." Why was he telling him this?? He should be trying to get him back to the guest room....but he seemed calm right now...? He saw the King Boo was slowly sinking into the cloud until he was lower than Luigi. He seemed to be upset about something. He mumbled something under his breath but he couldn't hear. They were quiet for a moment."...King Boo?" The ghost looked at him."Uhh...I don't mean to change the subject but do you know anything about those traps in the forest?" His eyes widened and he rose up a bit.
King Boo:"You mean you didn't know?? That can't be--surely you're just playing tricks on me!" He said a bit angrily. Luigi quickly sat back and started shaking his hands and his head.
Luigi:"NO! No, no, no, no! Really! I don't! Even Peach and Mario don't know about them! Honest! Why would I even get stuck in one myself if I knew about them??"
King Boo:"Because you're clumsy half the time." He said as if it was obvious. Luigi frowned.
Luigi:"Oh..." He said flatly. King Boo rolled his eyes and looked away again.
King Boo:"Anyways, I can only assume those traps belong to that stupid old man you work with....but that is a little strange he would just throw them around the place carelessly like that..." He touched his chin as he thought about it."I didn't get a good look at them, I just noticed some of my Boo's going missing." Luigi stood up."Those things are dangerous to ghosts! They hurt until we can't move anymore! I actually felt like I had a body! I'm not sure what that shock did but it's making it hard for me to heal faster." Luigi nodded when he looked at the marks on his body. Polterpup came back and sat next to Boo. He wagged his tail while panting. The ghost pat the little dog's head. Luigi couldn't help but smile a little. He was glad that he didn't hurt his little buddy while he was out. The ghost looked at him."I thought maybe you were helping that old man when I saw you wandering around the forest." Luigi frowned.
Luigi:"No, I actually haven't seen him in a while." He fixed his green shirt."If these are his traps why would he be placing them around like that? Especially without telling the Princess?" They thought about it for a little while. King Boo shrugged.
King Boo:"He's probably finally going out of his mind. Trying to make quick money off from selling ghosts trapped in paintings." He said with a disgusted look on his face. Luigi glared at him
Luigi:"You tried putting us in paintings!" He said with a bit of anger in his voice.
King Boo:"I didn't start this fight, HE did." He sneered."But I will end it if I have to. I'm sick and tired of that old man kidnapping my Boo's!" He growled. Luigi put his hands up. He didn't want to upset the ghost and end up stuck in a painting. He has to think about this. Luigi relaxed a little.
Luigi:"Well...how about we figure something out." King Boo narrowed his eyes."Let's find out who's been placing these traps all over the kingdom and make sure no one get's hurt. And make them clean up their mess so this doesn't happen again...and find your Boo's! How's that sound? Deal?" He held out his hand to the ghost's. He hesitated at first. He looked at the dog was smiling at him. He sighed.
King Boo:"Alright. I guess....but no tricks!" He took his hand. Yeah same to you pal, Luigi thought to himself. He looked back at the water and the ship was gone."....How long do you think they're gonna be gone?"
Luigi:"Huh? Oh, I dunno. They're meeting Bowser I think. Mario's with her though so I'm not too worried." King Boo gave him a look and raised a brow. Luigi blinked."What? It's Bowser! He won't be too hard for Mario to take care of. I'm sure of it!" He nodded while putting his hands on his hips.
King Boo:"Right..." He laid back down on the cloud. Polterpup did the same. Luigi sat down on the cloud."Well this'll be interesting won't it? Enemies working together until we figure out who's been causing trouble around Peachy's kingdom."
Luigi:"I guess so." He smiled a little."But I bet we'll get to be friends by the end of this!" The ghost went quiet. Then he laughed.
King Boo:"In your dreams nerd!" He grinned."When this is all over, we're going back to paintings and vacuums." Luigi frowned.
Luigi:"Ohh..." He didn't like the sound of that. Boo laughed again.
-------------------------------------------------------
Uhhh....might continue on this. I didn’t expect it to go like this but oh well! Would’ve felt too quick just to jump into it so will probably work on the next page! I’m having a bit of an art block for my own work at the moment. So here’s some King Boo/Luigi fanfic! I hope this page doesn’t look weird or anything. I tried fixing it before but I guess it messed it up.

devil 007 (Bakugo Katsuki x Reader)
summary:
(demon!au)
Turns out Bakugo Katsuki never wanted to eat your soul, rather he just needed someone to play video games with.
ᴀᴜᴛʜᴏʀ's ɴᴏᴛᴇ: ʜᴇʀᴇ's ᴛʜᴇ ᴘʀᴏʟᴏɢᴜᴇ. ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴇɴᴊᴏʏ :>
                                                    ☆     ☆     ☆
𝑖. 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑢𝑒
“That was a fucking accident.”
“An explosion that big is not an accident!”
You might be wondering how the hell were you hanging on the tallest building in the underworld holding on to a pipeline for your dear life. While your notorious partner-in-crime Bakugo just watched as you dangled ninety feet in the air. 
“I swear if I die I will shitting haunt you for all eternity! You’d be fed up with all my shit the moment my soul reaches your territory. Just imagine, me annoying you fore—“
“Jump.” He grumbled. 
No. Jump? Hell no. You’d rather die than jump into his arms. Bakugo was more likely to miss, and you’d fall (probably five storeys) before he dare tried to save you. 
You wanted to scream. How all this happened in the first place, you hardly remember. No, you did remember. 
It was all because of that stupid book. 
☆     ☆     ☆     ☆     ☆
It was a mishap, really. The wrong book got delivered to the wrong place at the wrong time, and exactly the wrong thing happened as a consequence. 
You were a college student who had just finished the semester, and frankly... a miserable one you were. Failing a quiz was one thing, but you had to mess up your finals so badly a retake wouldn’t suffice. You had to take up the subject all over again. 
Sighing, you lay flat on your back. The ceiling had this magical property to suck up all the negativity in your life. 
(it didn’t. but you’d like to think so.)
You had all the time in the world to repeat the subject. The problem? Cash. Having a scholarship at a prestigious university wasn’t easy. One measly failure could mean bye-bye free tuition fees and hello student loans that could last centuries + a liver.
Doomed you were, honey. You groaned. At least the treasury board approved the student allowances; which meant? The poor student (you) finally bought the heavy shitass syllabus for your major. The subject you failed. 
It could take weeks for the parcel to arrive. What did you expect? You only ordered it days ago. The sooner it gets here, you’d be studying your ass off until 5 A.M. for weeks. Hooray. 
A sudden ring of the doorbell awoke you from your senses. Huh, it did arrive earlier than you expected. You scooted towards the door and twisted it open. There lay a box wrapped in tape, a sticker with the words ‘fragile: handle with care’ shone in bright yellow. 
You picked it up and shook the item. It was lighter than you expected. How the heck did a 700 page book become as light as a diary? Did they send you the wrong thing? Crap. You scoured the whole box to find neither details about who the recipient nor who the sender was. 
Oh, well. Did that mean you could keep whatever was inside? You grinned. Opening up the box, you find out it was a vivid red book entitled:
Ultimatum Wishes: The Ultimate Spellbook for Summoning Demons! All your wishes will come true! Follow the instructions inside. 
Yeah, right. Like you could summon a demon to send you a trillion yen.
(apparently, doubt didn’t stop you from trying.)
☆     ☆     ☆     ☆     ☆
First of all, what the actual fuck. 
Your curiosity got the best of you. The instructions were pretty easy; sugar, salt, dirt, water, a jar of mayonnaise, a drop of blood— basically, the usual ingredients for summoning demons. Like that’s shitting normal? You had to mix them all together and spread them into the circle you drew on earlier. 
Second, did you really summon a demon?
You were obviously not in your dorm room. It was bigger, darker, and colder to what you were accustomed to. After saying a stupid chant, you make a wish and boom! demon comes to you. So the instructions said. 
It was a joke, really. You never thought the book was actually real! Once you said your wish, a bright light flashed and... you were here. A basement like room devoid of light, making your fingers the only things you could see at the moment. 
You were sprawled on your back, staring at your hands. If only your eyes could adjust to the light then you would be on your merry way to finding the exit. Except, that you didn’t really need to adjust. The lights opened with a flash and you were met with red eyes:
“Took you long enough, brat!”
Lastly, who the hell was this?
The moment you and this miniature bomb exchanged looks, and he realized that you weren’t the person he was hoping for, the man grabbed the collar of your shirt lifting you high up to the ceiling. 
“How the fuck did you get here stupid human? Pretty gutsy of you to just waltz in like you own the place, hm?” He growled, slightly shaking you with every syllable he uttered. 
You barely registered it, you-know before you were lifted up, but this person in front of you was terrifying. He radiated waves of “answer properly or i’ll rip you into shreds” and you didn’t want to die.
(not at least before smacking this crappy brute.)
“Put me down you—you crappy dog! Treat me nicely and I’ll tell you everything,” You choked. 
He scrunched his eyebrows in confusion. “You’re really haggling with me now, maggot? The last time I checked I could easily squeeze the fucking life out of you—”
“T-The book! Shitty book! Followed it and I’m here!”
And with that you were dropped onto the floor. You yelped upon impact, rubbing the area of your neck with your fingers. That hurt.  Your eyes hovered to your assailant and saw his frustration building up. Hoo, a little bit more and he’d be on fire. 
“...How’d you get it?” 
“Sent to my doorstep. D-Didn’t think it was real I thought—”
“You opened it knowing it wasn’t yours?”
“Oh, no you aren’t! Don’t blame me for your shitty mistake in the first place!”
“Watch your tongue, human.”
You sighed. Everyone knew you were someone who wouldn’t back down from a fight, but your senses told you otherwise. There was a fine line between pissing him off and stabbing you in the heart, you knew you were likely closer to the latter part of the scale. 
“Fine. Whoever that package was sent to, it came to me instead. Why am I here?”
He contemplated for a while, searching for the right words to spout out. Oh God no. Were you brought here as a sacrifice? You shook your head. Anything but that! Sweat dribbled down your forehead. Why wasn’t he saying anything?
“...to kill...”
Yeaph. And with that, you blacked out. 
(imagine, fainting from your own demolition. oh, you hope you didn’t actually break a bone or two.)
☆     ☆     ☆     ☆     ☆
You awoke to a strange tapping noise, more like a smack, and groans of infuriation. The vivid colors of black, pink, and yellow caught your attention, making you stare in awe. Was that Mario Kart...?
The clicking sound came from the blonde who sat cross-legged on the floor, eyes drawn to big television screen in front of him. While you were on a black couch around three hands away from the man. Seemingly, he could sense your tiny movements as you sat up, compelling him to chuck a controller at you. 
“You gonna play or what?”
Huh? You took the object, feeling the texture in your hands. It’s been a while since you held a controller; even longer since you played a game at all. The game home screen flashed, the cursor hovering over the “new game” button. He clicked it forcing the game to switch into the character screen. 
The man picked Bowser. Ah, not surprising. You grinned as you chose Princess Peach.
The game began immediately after and you thought, wow. You sucked at this game! Your cart hit track walls, bounced on boulders, special items that you sent managed to hit you instead. Rigged, this must be rigged! Just because the last time you played the game was ten years ago, doesn’t automatically mean you were shit at it.
Your companion thought differently.
“You’re crappy at this game.” He sneered.
You rolled your eyes. “It’s just the first game! A warm-up, you’ll see.”
And yes, he did see. See you fail round after round, time after time, the twenty games you played seemed to only prove your awful skills at a simple multiplayer game. You groaned. How was it possible to lose this much? Even the computer controlled characters beat you senseless. 
Gently placing the controller on the sofa, you wrapped your arms around your knees. Was this a test? A test to see whether if you were worth killing? Oh boy, you would have been slaughtered at the first playthrough. 
“Are you going kill me now?” You murmured. 
If this was how you were going to go, at least you had fun. Well, you did lose more times than you could count. But hey, it was enjoyable. 
“Ha. You think I’d let you go that easily?” He stood up, turned and grabbed the controller. “You made a pact with me, and now you’re gonna run away?”
His other hand reached for your chin and pulled it up, your eyes meeting his. 
“What’d you wish for, princess?”
alright. so that’s the prologue! thank you for reading. i’ll have the chapter one ready soon. so pretty much, what happened was: you received a package. bored as you were followed the instructions and summoned a demon. except, you were actually summoned somewhere else to bakugo no less. 
the introductions come on to the next chapter!! please leave a like if you like it aaaaa it would mean alot ;;;;

Commission for Confidence, 7
Summary: Y/N has been struggling with her self-esteem for years. After incessant pushing from your best friend, Y/N decides to commission an artist to draw her, expecting everything to happen via Internet. However, when your phone is stolen, you try to cancel the commission, but Peter Parker has other ideas. He quickly becomes enraptured by you, and a friendship forms easily. Will it lead to something more? Or will your past fears get in the way?
A/N: Okay, so, here is the next chapter of CfC! It’s a really long one because I have no self control and couldn’t find a good place to cut off (honestly, I’m not SUPER happy with where it IS cut off), but I hope you all still like it! Make sure you read my warnings, though, because some violence does occur.
PLEASE let me know what you think!! I’m desperate for validation; you can always message me, or send me an anon, or put it in the tags of a reblog, or whatever!! I do read every response to my writing, so I’d love it if you could give me some feedback or just some sort of response!!
As always, if you want to be tagged, just let me know!!
Taglist: @pparkerwrites, @scatterbrainedgenius, @jordyns-library, @wildfirecracker, @pastlives-purplesouls, @maybemona, @hotchocolattee
Word Count: 4765
Warnings: robbery attempt, violence, depictions of violence, some blood, hospitals, Peter being cute and silly and worried, some awkwardness, some self-doubt at the end, disassociative episode, some anxiety, some lame nerdstuff at the beginning bc I’m the author and write what I want, swearing
A few days later, on Thursday, you looked up to see your Edith at your door, a package in her hands. With an excited shout, you got up and hurried over to her. Your supervisor chuckled at your actions, pretending to hide the package behind her back.
“Edith,” you pouted as she kept the box with a teasing grin.
“Fine, fine,” she acquiesced, handing you the box. “Now you can start actually texting that boy instead of emailing like you’re old. Don’t email like me, don’t be old.” Edith widened her eyes as if picturing deep, dark horrors, and you laughed at her.
“Email is still perfectly acceptable, Edith,” you chuckled, trying to push the topic of Peter right out the window.
It didn’t work.
“It’s not acceptable when you have a crush on a handsome man!”
“Edith!” you chided, fumbling with your box to try and maintain composure.
That also didn’t work.
“I’ll leave you to your phone,” Edith cackled, winking at you before leaving.
You muttered to yourself and sat down at your desk. It didn’t take long to get your new phone up and running. As it sat on your desk, you sent out an email to your coworkers to inform them that your phone was back in business again, with the same phone number as before. It was nice to be easily connected to Monica again, and it was nice to be able to play your mindless little games when you needed a break from reading.
And, well, it would be nice to be able to talk to Peter without needing an Internet connection. The two of you had been emailing back and forth rather consistently since Saturday, and you had plans to meet up for a movie/game night at Peter’s place on Friday. Ned had finally returned from his business trip, and Peter really wanted you to meet him and his Aunt May, who would be at the movie/game night as well.
You’d been hesitant to accept the invitation. Even though you really liked Peter (probably too much considering how long you’d known him), you were always nervous about meeting new people. But, after encouragement from Monica, and reassurance from Peter, you agreed to go.
You emailed Peter, telling him your phone number, and tried to get back to work. You tried, you really did, but your brain was jumping around like a happy rabbit.
You sighed and sat back, pinching the bridge of your nose. Your lack of focus could also be attributed to the ache in your eyes from reading too much. This job was amazing, one of your dream jobs, but sometimes it was hard to deal with because it did leave you with aches and pains, both in your eyes and your lower back. Then again, you’d always had a bad back.
Your phone dinged and you opened your eyes. You had a text message from an unknown number. Upon opening the message, you saw it was a message from Peter.
Peter: Heyyo, Y/N! It’s a-me, Peter!!!
You chuckled and wrote back: Hello, Peter, it’s a-me, Y/N, the Wario of the world.
Peter sent back several shocked and angry emojis, making you chuckle again. Then, this message arrived: How dare you. You are my Mario AND my Princess Peach. Never slander yourself in my presence again.
You laughed loudly, tilting your head back. You couldn’t help the heat that came to your cheeks and you typed out your response: Or what, I’m going to be turned into Bowser?
No, you’ll get a strongly worded letter and a disappointed look
You rolled your eyes and tried to control the beating of your heart.
I cannot believe you think you’re Wario, Peter then wrote. You are the shining light, the Princess Peach in “Paper Mario and Thousand-Year-Old Door”, taking charge and doing her best to save herself while stuck on the moon.
A snort escape your body and you shook your head. You’re ridiculously silly.
But you’re the one that decided to like me and be friends with me, so who’s the REALLY silly one here????
It took you a minute to think of a reply. In the end, this is what you sent: … fair point.
Peter simply replied with a bunch of emojis, rather nonsensically, but it made you chuckle. After sending back a few emojis of your own, you told him that you needed to get back to work and be productive for once.
Fine, leave me, Peter wrote. I’ll wither away, but go be ‘productive’, I guess. ‘Responsibility’ is important, I GUESS
You almost cackled with laughter at his dramatics and told him to hang tight, because you’d be back soon to revive him.
Mouth to mouth better be in order, I think I’m dying…
You rolled your eyes and put your phone on silent so you could get some work done.
Of course, you ended up being restless again, because you were thinking about his demand of mouth to mouth. Was Peter just teasing, or was he flirting? Was this what being friends with Peter Parker was like for everyone? You had no idea, and those thoughts were crowding your mind after a few simple minutes.
Then, your savior arrived in the form of Arthur, your beloved coworker. He knocked on the frame of your door as he leaned against it, making your head jolt up in surprise.
“Hello, dear,” he greeted you softly in his London lilt. “You doing alright there?”
You smiled at him, probably a little raggedly, and shrugged a shoulder. “Not really,” you admitted. “Can’t focus, my brain is being too loud.”
“Then it is a perfect time to come on a coffee break!” he announced, striding in and trying to pull you from your chair. Since your chair had wheels, it simply went along with you, making you laugh.
“Arthur, let me get up! You know that the chair will barely fit in the break room, the door frame is only barely big enough,” you giggled. “We all remember what happened the last time you tried this stunt.”
The man pretended to look insulted and dropped your hands. “For your information, we’re going to a café for the coffee break. Get up, let’s go.”
You chuckled and stood, gathering your purse and phone; you made sure to pack it in the bottom of your purse, just in case.
As you followed Arthur out of the office and to the elevator, you said, “Are we going to bother poor Charlie at work?”
Arthur turned around with wide, dramatic hazel eyes. “What? No, no, why would we do that? No, we’re just going to get coffee. I don’t even know if Charlie is working today.”
You giggled into your hand as you entered the elevator. “Arthur, it’s his café. He works every day except for weekends.” Of course, you knew he knew this.
“I would never interrupt Charlie at work, how could you possibly assume that of me, I am hurt. I’m truly hurt. How could you. I am always professional.”
You laughed at the deep voiced man acting like a dramatic Shakespeare actor. The two of you made small talk as you walked the two blocks to the café, Bean Me Up. It truly had amazing coffee, and if it had been a bit closer to the subway station, it was where you would have suggested to meet Peter because of its inherent nerdiness. It was quite popular.
Arthur opened the door for you, the scent of coffee washing over your body and relaxing your shoulders. It was a small place, one you had always enjoyed visiting, and it wasn’t too bright or too dark. At the moment, there were a few people lounging around.
“Oh Charlie!” Arthur sang out in his deep voice, nearly skipping to the counter. You were confident that if he actually had been skipping, his suit would have ripped.
Charlie, a stocky man with his dreadlocks in a ponytail today, looked up as he heard Arthur. He rolled his eyes but there was a small smile on his face.
“Wow, Arthur, what a surprise,” Charlie drawled, smirking. “Second time today, do you have a crush on me or something?”
“I would never, you’re simply not my type,” Arthur teased.
“What is your type, then, gorgeous?”
Arthur pretended to think about it, and you smiled. Their interactions were always amusing to watch, to say the least.
“I like Jamaican-Filipino men that own their own business and make the best coffee in the entire damn city, with dreadlocks and glasses and a scar on the left eyebrow,” Arthur finally stated, nodding to himself.
“Oh my gosh, just greet your husband already!” you exclaimed teasingly, gently pushing the man’s shoulder. “I want a coffee.”
“Y/N!” Charlie exclaimed, rushing around the counter and completely bypassing his husband to wrap you in a hug. “I didn’t even see you; this big lug was in the way. How are you, darling, is this one still being annoying in the break room?”
“Oh, you know,” you joked, “just always making my life difficult.”
“Hey!” Arthur protested, though you both ignored him.
“Aw, sorry, he can be like that. The other day, he—”
“We’re not telling that story!!” Arthur interrupted abruptly, turning his husband away from you forcibly. You laughed loudly and Charlie winked at you.
You and Arthur ordered your drinks, and since Charlie wouldn’t let you pay, you shoved a twenty-dollar bill in his tip jar. As you and Arthur sat by the window, enjoying your coffee slowly (Thursdays were always slow days at the office, and Edith knew the power a break could have), you looked out to see four people in masks approaching the shop.
“Charlie!” you barely had time to shout as the men burst into the café. They waved large guns around and started yelling.
“Everyone, get down!” one yelled above the others. The other people had already scrambled to the floor, their hands over their heads. It was deadly quiet in the shop once everyone was on the floor; you and Arthur, however, were behind the men, sitting at your table in shock, and for some reason, you were ignored.
You shot Arthur a look and he nodded subtly, slowly reaching for his phone and texting Edith to call 911. She immediately responded with a thumbs up, but Arthur’s phone was on sound, making the robbers turn around.
“Hey!” one yelled, striding forward and shoving Arthur down to the floor. “You think you’re hot shit, you fucking piece of shit? Pulling shit, calling people?”
“I-I didn’t do anything!” Arthur protested.
“Get on the ground!” a second guy walked up to the table, talking to you.
You didn’t move.
“I said,” he growled, grabbing you by the hair, “get on the ground!”
“Leave her alone!” Charlie shouted from the counter, where he was slowly complying with the leader’s demands.
“Oh, why should I?” the guy still holding you by the hair asked. The gun was pressed to your head and the man growled, “Hurry the fuck up.”
“Look, we don’t wanna shoot anyone,” the leader was saying, “just give us all the money in the entire store, okay? Go to the safe and get that, too. Or we’ll start with her.”
Tears were pooling in your eyes from the force of your hair being gripped so tightly, but you could hear sirens in the distance. As you were trying to relieve the pain from your roots by pulling your knees under your body, you remembered a video you’d once watched. It was a risky idea, but perhaps you’d be able to turn the situation around.
You quickly rammed your elbow into the back of the man’s knee; he crumbled, releasing your hair. You grabbed his gun and threw it at the man that was standing by Arthur, knocking him to the ground. It was that moment that Spider-Man burst through the window, sending glass flying everywhere.
The superhero was webbing up the two guys that were standing as the one you’d hit in the knee turned to you with fire in his eyes. You raised your arms and curled your body into yourself to protect your organs as he kicked you in the side and back.
The café was full of sound again as people were yelling and you felt the vibrations of people running outside, but you were still being kicked at. You remained in that position even when the kicking stopped, but the sounds were still in your ears, and you didn’t want to risk anything. You stayed like that until the vibrations from the floor calmed down.
“Shit, Y/N, are you okay?” a weird voice asked, and strange feeling hands were gently touching your shoulders.
You opened your eyes and saw Spider-Man, looking at you with wide white eyes. He seemed more panicked than you would have thought, especially since no one had been shot and the police had already arrived to take away the webbed criminals.
“I-I’m okay,” you muttered as you sat up.
“Y/N, you’re bleeding. There’s glass in your face and your hand.”
You looked at your hand and were shocked to see that Spider-Man was right. There were little pieces of glass in the back of your hand and down the outside of your forearm. It was from when you’d dropped to the floor in a ball to protect yourself.
“Well, would you look at that,” you blinked.
A paramedic approached you at that moment, making Spider-Man back up. “You’ll take care of her, right?” the hero asked the professional.
“Of course, Spider-Man. Leave it to me, thank you for stepping in. It would have been a lot worse if you hadn’t showed up,” the paramedic said.
“Thank you, Spider-Man,” you said quietly as she helped you up.
“Y-you’re welcome, Y/N,” he stuttered, backing up towards the broken window. “Stay safe out there.”
You barely heard him as you walked slowly with the paramedic, Siska, outside the café. Arthur and Charlie were holding each other as they were looked over by another paramedic, and thankfully they both looked okay. Arthur had a few small cuts from broken glass, but he didn’t look too worse for wear. Charlie looked stressed and scared.
Siska made small talk with you as she looked over your injuries; she was worried about the glass in your hand and face and the bruising forming around your midsection. So, Siska accompanied you to the hospital, keeping you distracted from the creeping pain by telling you about various Indonesian foods that she missed from visiting family.
Arthur called you as you were waiting for a doctor to come into the room, and you answered right away, still rather numb and in shock.
“Are you okay?” he immediately demanded.
“Y-yeah, I’m okay. A doctor is gonna look over my injuries and stuff, remove the glass and shit, make sure I don’t have any broken anything.”
“That’s a relief,” he breathed out. Then, “What the FUCK were you thinking?”
“W-what?” you stuttered, nearly dropping your phone from your good hand.
“There were four men, Y/N! FOUR of them! And you thought it would be a bloody good idea to try and debilitate one, as if that would’ve made a difference!”
“Arthur,” you began in a deadly steady voice, “if you keep yelling at me, I will hang up this phone right now and not speak to you for two weeks.”
“Stop berating her,” Charlie’s voice said from the background. “Let me talk to her. You’re being unhelpful, and I know that’s not what you want. Go sit, okay, babe?”
Arthur muttered something that you couldn’t quite make out, but the phone was handed over to Charlie.
“Look, Y/N,” the man sighed, “I do admit, the way you went about things was reckless, but it was also pretty smart. Thank you for that. Now, tell me what’s going on.”
You told Charlie everything that you knew at that moment, though you barely registered that you were talking. When the doctor entered, you said goodbye to Charlie and told him to take care of himself.
“Alright, let’s get a look at you,” the doctor said as she entered. “I’m Doctor Miriam Finestein; Siska told me what you did today, and that was pretty brave.”
Your faraway look and mumbled, “Thanks,” did not go past the doctor. Her eyebrows furrowed as she took you in, the way the pieces of glass were sticking out from your skin and slowly bleeding, the way you seemed to have no focus whatsoever.
“Y/N, right?” Doctor Finestein confirmed, walking forward slowly. You nodded, trying to force your focus from the stupid white wall and onto the doctor. “Can I see your arm?” she asked gently.
You held your arm out to her and her warm touch on the palm of your hand seemed to help you wake up. Your vision came back into focus and you blinked as you got a good look at the lovely doctor. She smiled at you as you did, making you feel a little sheepish, but at least now you were alert.
“I thought you might be disassociating,” the doctor told you quietly.
“That happens to me a lot,” you admitted. “But I tried to fight it this time.”
“But I think this was shock induced.”
“You’re probably right.”
Doctor Finestein kept up small talk while she examined your arm and hand; she told you about her cat, Frank, and her dog, Stella. It helped keep you grounded as she turned to your face, making a small clicking sound with her tongue.
“I’m going to take out the glass,” she informed you, rolling back on her chair towards the sink. “It doesn’t look too bad, truth be told. You’ll heal up just fine. Thankfully, there’s only a handful of deep and big pieces. I do want to do a CT scan afterwards on your hand and arm, just to be sure there isn’t any damage that’s not superficial. I’ll also check your ribs for breakage or other such things. Of course, we’ll also patch everything up and send you home with some painkillers.”
“Okay. Uh, how long will it take?” you asked hesitantly.
“Well,” she washed her hands and glanced at you, “it’s not going to be short. Unfortunately, there are a lot of smaller pieces, and there might be a wait for the scan. You could call someone to keep you company, we wouldn’t say no to that. It could take a few hours and it does get a little dull.”
You nibbled your lip in thought; you didn’t want to go through it completely alone, but you also didn’t want to be a bother. As you were thinking and Doctor Finestein was getting everything together, your phone went off. The doctor let you answer it and went out to get a nurse to help her with the glass removal.
You answered without looking, immediately being greeted with, “Y/N, are you okay? I saw something about a café robbery and saw you on the news, is everything okay? Where are you? Thank goodness you picked up!”
You chuckled despite yourself, trying not to move too many muscles in your face. Moving your mouth was fine, but there was a curve of cuts and pieces of glass going from above your eyebrow and down to your cheekbone. Still, as you were now more alert, you were actually registering the glass in your face.
“I’m okay, Peter,” you told him calmly. “I just have some glass in my arm and hand, and some in my face, but I’m okay, really.”
“Oh, thank God,” Peter breathed out. “Where are you? Do you need anything?”
“Actually,” you hesitated, “actually, Peter, if you’re not busy…” You steeled your nerves. It would be fine. “If you’re not busy, could you come and sit in the hospital with me? There’s stuff they gotta do and I,” your throat tightened, and you finally registered how actually terrified you still were, “I don’t wanna be alone.”
“Of course! I’ll be right there; I’m still in Manhattan. Where are you?”
You told Peter the hospital and the room number before hanging up. At that moment, Doctor Finestein knocked and came back in with a smile directed at you.
“We’ll get started in a few minutes. Would you rather check your ribs before or after removing the glass?”
“After, please,” you said with little hesitation. “I really want to get this stuff out of my arm. I’m tired of holding it like this.”
“No problem!” she reassured you. “Is someone coming?”
“Yeah, my friend Peter—”
           You were interrupted by a knock on the door and Doctor Finestein opened it, revealing an out-of-breath Peter Parker.
“And that would be Peter,” you chuckled.
“Jesus, Y/N, I’m so glad you’re okay!” Peter breathed out as he nearly knocked the good doctor over. He was hovering around your injured side, the worry on his face making his eyebrow twitch. Then, as if he realized that he had nearly knocked a doctor over, he spun on his heels.
“Peter, yes?” Doctor Finestein asked rhetorically, a teasing smile on her face.
“Yes,” he puffed out before offering his hand. “I’m Peter Parker.”
“She told me,” the doctor chuckled, “right before you burst into the door.”
“So, when are we getting started?” you asked, trying to diffuse the awkwardness.
“Once my nurse gets here,” Finestein informed you both. Immediately after, there was a knock on the door, and the doctor said, “Wow, Y/N and I just have wonderful timing today, don’t we! Everyone’s appearing at our beck and call.”
“I’ll always come to Y/N’s beck and call,” Peter stated firmly.
Your eyes widened in embarrassment at his strong statement and avoided looking him in the eyes. As you looked at the doctor, she was giving you a knowing look, so you looked at the nurse instead. He also gave you a knowing look, so you resigned yourself to not winning at that moment. Life wasn’t always fair.
You kept repeating that internal mantra as Dr. Finestein and the nurse, Jeremy, worked on removing the glass from your face. It was certainly not a nice feeling.
As you clutched the edge of the table, you felt heat coming closer to your hand. Peter gently touched your hand, forcing it to relax from the table, and your eyes flickered up to him. He smiled gently at you, the softest of pinks gracing his cheekbones, and laced your hands together. His hand was soft but steady, comforting.
“You can squeeze my hand,” Peter said tenderly. “Don’t worry, it’ll be over soon.”
The sweetness of his gaze made your heart melt and you smiled your agreement.
You winced and squeezed his hand as the tweezers removed the glass shards from your face. Doctor Finestein assured you that they were almost done with the face, but you nearly jumped out of your skin as the tweezers dug around in the flesh of your cheek.
“Sorry,” Doctor Finestein tried to calm you. “Sorry, I’m sorry, I should have warned you. Just this piece in your cheek, and we’ll take a break, okay?”
You breathed out an “Okay,” prompting the doctor to go back to finding the glass. Peter rubbed your hand with his thumb, his other hand moving to rub up and down on your back. His touch was incredibly comforting, and it helped you get your breathing back in proper order, instead of the slightly-too-fast breaths you’d been taking.
It was a strange sensation as she pulled the glass out and placed it on the tray, allowing Jeremy to rush in to disinfect the spot. They put a few butterfly closures on your face, and you had to admit that so many hands touching your face was strange.
“Okay, we’ll take a little break,” Dr. Finestein announced as Jeremy finished with the bandages on your face. “I’ll let them know that we need a CT scan so the stuff will be ready by the time we’re ready.”
“Do you two need anything?” Jeremy asked you and Peter. “Water, maybe?”
“I’d love some, please,” you nodded vigorously. Peter nodded as well.
“Alright, I’ll be back in like two minutes,” Jeremy stated, giving you both a thumbs up and leaving the room.
Peter let go of your hand and stopped rubbing your back, clearing his throat and stepping back a bit. The pink that had been on his cheek had become red in a short amount of time, and he seemed nervous.
“I-I’m sorry this all happened,” he said quietly.
You looked at him and tilted your head in confusion. “Why?” you asked. “It wasn’t your fault those guys tried to rob Charlie’s business.”
Peter chuckled anxiously and rubbed the back of his neck. “S-still,” he stuttered, “I’m sorry there’s a bunch of glass in you.”
You shrugged a shoulder and heaved out a sigh. “You know, it could be worse. I’ll take a little glass over the alternative bullet in my skull.”
Peter blanched at that and his facial panic had you chuckling. He began to stammer, and you held your good hand out to him. At the gesture, he blinked in surprise before slowly moving to take your hand. You brushed your thumb over his knuckles, only to be surprised as Peter laced your fingers together again.
“Thank you for your concern, Peter,” you smiled. “But let’s focus on what happened and what’s going on now. No need to worry over ‘what ifs’ right now.”
As Peter beamed at you, Doctor Finestein and Jeremy knocked and entered the room. Peter dropped your hand and stepped back, once again blushing furiously. Jeremy handed you and Peter some cups of water as Dr. Finestein announced that it was time to begin the removal once more.
You chugged your water and put the empty cup behind you before brandishing your arm to the good doctor. You felt a lot better after wetting your throat, and you were really wanting to get home and just go to bed. All the “excitement” of the past handful of hours was taking its toll on you, and you really wanted to go to bed.
As the professionals washed their hands and got everything ready once more, Peter finished his cup and took yours, throwing them away. He laced your fingers together and squeezed as the doctor and nurse began to remove the glass from your arm.
There were bigger pieces there, and each removal stung more than any in your face had. Peter kept squeezing your hand and rubbing your back; at once particularly irksome pull, he started to trace nonsensical patterns on your hand with his thumb. Then, you saw his face light up as inspiration struck.
He unlaced your fingers before turning your hand palm up. “I’m going to do little drawings, and I want you to try and guess what it is!” he beamed at you.
“Okay, sounds like a good idea,” you agreed, wincing slightly.
As Peter traced small designs on your palm, you managed to direct most of your attention to him. You hadn’t even known the doctor and nurse were done removing the glass until a sting of disinfectant snapped your head over to them.
“Almost done with this,” Doctor Finestein smiled at you. “We’ll bandage you up and check your ribs before the CT scan, okay?”
“Sure,” you nodded as Peter gently scratched his fingernail down your palm, obviously vying for your attention. Your laughter at his behavior made everyone in the room smile, and you shook your head at Peter. “So needy,” you teased.
Peter simply winked at you, making blood run to your face and chest, and drew his design once more on your palm.
Sooner than you expected, Jeremy was leaving the room (not without you thanking him, of course) with the tray of bloody glass, and Doctor Finestein was telling you to remove your shirt so she could look at your ribs.
Your wide, panicked eyes flashed to Peter and his red face.
“I, um, I’ll step out,” Peter stuttered, quickly fleeing the room.
You tried to ignore how your heart ached as he left; it was obvious to you that he didn’t want to see any part of you naked. It hurt your heart, but you tried to reassure yourself that Peter was just being polite. It didn’t stop the slight ache in your heart of the rush of anxiety in your mind as you took off your shirt so the doctor could do her examination.

A little bit of Both
Tw: truscum, anxiety, transphobia, misgendering
This is the first part of my three part fic about Roman going through various labels for their gender. In this first part they will identify as a trans woman.
This part may not have the happiest ending, but that will be changed in the following parts and at the end of the third part there will be an entirely happy ending.
This is for week two of @fander-pride-meetup representation
If you wanna be tagged in the next parts please don't sent me an ask I rarely see them, send me a message
Roman was a boy.
He had been born as one, and he usually felt like one.
Until he wasn’t.
He didn’t know when it happened, but he felt more like a woman now. Wait, not he, she, Roman reminded herself. She was looking in the mirror, her lack of boobs glaringly obvious. All her male features didn’t feel very wrong per se, just off.
“I guess I’m trans now?” She said more as a question than a real statement. She hand expected this, she always seemed to be fine with being a guy, but lately it just didn’t sit right with her.
She weighed her options and decided that there’s no reason to hide this from her friends, and that doing so would only increase her suffering. Patton would probably be supportive of her, Virgil would probably get anxious about misgendering her, and Logan would probably reassure him with facts and research.
Everyone was over at Virgil’s house, sitting on or around the couch in his room and playing Mario kart on an old Wii. Roman was feeling very nervous and couldn’t concentrate so he ended up in last place. Virgil, playing Bowser, shot a red shell at Logan, playing Luigi, with the finish line in sight, he started laughing as he passed him, but right before he crossed the finish line a blue she’ll landed on him blowing him and Logan who was right behind him into the air, Patton, playing toad, raced past both of them with a huge grin on his face and finished first. Logan and Virgil were staring wide-eyed at Patton who had actually been the one who shot the blue shell, he got it in sixth place during the second round and kept it with him and he slowly advanced to third place.
Roman didn’t bother actually finish the race, putting down her controller instead and taking a few breaths.
“Are you okay kiddo?” Patton asked her, tilting his head slightly to the left and smiling. “You seem a little distracted, what’s on your mind?”
Roman took a few more deep breaths. “I have something I want to tell you guys,” she hesitated, not sure how to start.
Virgil tensed up and got a worried look in his eyes. “Oh no, something’s wrong isn’t it, you’re gonna tell us that you’re moving away, or that you’re sick and you’re gonna die, are you gonna die? Oh god oh no.”
“It’s nothing bad, I promise, it’s okay, I’m not gonna die.” Roman quickly stated to calm her friends anxiety.
“Well, I can assure you there is no point in making us wait to hear whatever it is you wanted to tell us.” Logan said while giving Virgil one of his stimtoys to help him cope with his anxiety.
“I know that specs, I’m just having trouble finding the right words.”
Patton reached over and put his hand on Roman’s shoulder, Roman took a deep breath again before quickly saying “I’m trans!” She held her eyes closed because she was too scared to see the reactions of her friends.
“Well that’s alright kiddo, I love you regardless of your gender, you’re still the amazing person we know and love.” Patton said, though Roman did notice how he quickly let go of his shoulder.
“That’s it? That’s what you almost gave me a panic attack over? Dude, that’s nothing, I don’t get why you’d be so nervous about that, you should know we accept you.”
“Indeed, being transgender is not out of the ordinary, we are a group where each member will support any other member with anything. I shall send you some links on how to deal with dysphoria.”
Roman opened her eyes again and looked at the others, Patton was awkward about it, Virgil was dismissive about it, only Logan was ready to fully support her just like that. She faked a smile and leaned backwards falling against the backrest of the couch. “Thanks guys.”
Roman was laying on the bed in Logan’s room while Logan sat at his desk and typed away on his laptop.
“Logan, could we talk? I just need someone who will listen to me for a bit.” Roman asked as he stared at the ceiling.
“I am inadequate in dealing with emotional matters, but I will try to the best of my abilities.” He clicked safe on the document he was working on and closed his laptop.
“It feels weird to be out as trans, I would have thought that our friends would have been better about it. But I’m getting very different signals.” She began, sitting up and crossing her legs as she looked at Logan.
“How so?”
“It feels like Patton is avoiding me, and when we do spend time together, its usually with someone else there. And he avoids addressing me. I asked Patton about it when we were alone. But he just said ‘What are you talking about kiddo? You know I love you regardless of your gender.’” Roman sighed.
“Are you sure you aren’t misinterpreting things?”
“That isn’t everything, there’s also the fact that he doesn’t hug me anymore, and this is Patton were talking about, he hugs all his friends all the time. And also, whenever I sit down next to him he shortly after gets up and says he goes to the toilet or something else like that, and when he does come back he sits somewhere else, away from me.”
“I see.”
“And then there’s Virgil, he constantly misgenders me but when I correct him he just gives me a half smile and a shrug, he doesn’t even say sorry, and then he does it again the next time he talks about me.”
“I can see how that can be distressing, surely it can’t be enjoyable to feel dysphoric so often.”
“Yeah, I wanted to talk to you about that, I appreciate the support you’ve been giving me with sending me all those articles about being transgender and how to deal with dysphoria, but I don’t really feel dysphoria.” Roman said awkwardly as she scratched the back of her neck.
Logan looked surprised at Roman. “I was under the impression that you were transgender?”
“Yeah, I am?”
“How can you claim to be transgender when you do not even experience gender dysphoria.”
“What do you mean? You don’t need to have dysphoria to be trans.” Roman was nervously looking at Logan as he straightened his glasses.
“I know for a fact that you do, so if you do not experience gender dysphoria you are clearly not transgender.”
Roman looked surprised at Logan, feeling betrayed and wanting to cry.
“If you cannot even be honest about who you are I do not want you in my room, this is a sanctum of honesty and truth.” Logan said as he opened the door.
Roman blinked rapidly in an attempt not to cry as she put on her shoes and quickly walked out of the room. She didn’t want to cry in front of Logan.
Roman was sitting on her bed, tears streaming down her cheeks and making his blanket wet, there was already a sizable wet spot but she didn’t care enough to move to a dryer part of the bed, it would just get wet too. Roman had been holed up in her room for days, only leaving to raid the kitchen. The only things she did were eat, sleep, cry, and stare at her ceiling as she felt numb. She had considered calling someone but who would she call? Patton was avoiding her, Virgil obviously didn’t care enough about her to even try using the right pronouns, and Logan basically disowned her as a friend because he’s a truscum, she had no one to turn to.
Her father had come into her room, and he had set next to her as she stared at the ceiling, but she was feeling too numb to hear what he was saying. Eventually he left, but Roman noticed that after that there was a lot more ice cream in the freezer, her favourite comfort food.
On the fifth day she finally decided to turn her phone back on, she just couldn’t stand hearing only the sound of her crying anymore. Her phone vibrated as lots of messages came through at once. Roman scrolled through them, most were from Virgil who seemed to have had multiple freak-outs over her sudden disappearance, there were some from Logan, most recently a link, but Roman didn’t dare click on his contact, too afraid of what she’ll see. She looked if any we’re from Patton, but there was nothing, ever since she had come out, she hadn’t tried sending anything to him herself because she didn’t want to be ignored.
Roman hovered with her finger over Virgil’s contact, clearly he had been worried about her. Roman wanted to reach out to someone so badly, she wanted to not feel alone anymore so badly, she wanted to have friends again, or at the very least she wanted someone she could actually trust not to backstab her. She pressed Virgil’s contact and tried to write a text, but suddenly she just couldn’t find the words to express herself. She kept staring at the empty text box, her fingers ready to type anything her mind came up with, but nothing came. Eventually she just typed something and hit send before she could change her mind.
Princess charming: hey
Patches: Where the fuck have you been, I’ve been worried sick, you haven’t answered any of my texts or calls and now you suddenly show your face
Patches: What do you have to say for yourself?
Princess charming: I honestly feel like absolute shit, so much has been bothering me and I just can’t deal with it anymore
Patches: Oh shit dude, that sucks.
Roman had had it, she couldn’t let this go on any longer.
Princess charming: stop that!
Patches: Stop what?
Princess charming: calling me dude, I’m not a dude
Princess charming: stop acting like I am one
Patches: What?
Princess charming: you keep using he him pronouns for me even when I correct you, you call me dude, you just act like I’m not trans at all and I’m sick of it
Patches: Wow, I never realized it bothered you so much, I guess I just didn’t think it was that important?
Princess charming: why wouldn’t it be important?
Princess charming: I corrected you so often
Princess charming: how did you not think that maybe you should listen to me and start using the right pronouns
Virgil didn’t say anything for a while, Roman could see that he kept typing something but deleted it again soon after. Finally he said something
Patches: Okay, how about this, when I fuck up pronouns or whatever, you can punch me on the shoulder, eventually I’ll have to get it right that way.
Princess charming: deal

Now and Then (Super Mario oneshot)
Title: Now and Then Rating: G Summary: [Slice of life, post-Odyssey] A simple question from Cappy gets Luigi reminiscing about his and Mario’s unique friendship with Princess Peach. Notes: This is my entry for @bossmedley​ for @mariosecretsanta2018​; the prompt was “Mario, Luigi, and Peach at a picnic at the castle.”  Hope you enjoy!
Cross-posted to ff.net if you prefer reading there, can’t link due to the new linking restrictions…
The two brothers had been carrying the largest picnic basket full of food they could find; it was rather heavy, prompting Luigi to complain about it. But Mario cheerfully encouraged him to keep his chin up—after all, how often did they get to enjoy a peaceful picnic, uninterrupted by Bowser or any other villain du jour?
Peach, assisted by Tiara, was putting the final touches on a cake as she glanced out the window to see Mario and Luigi arriving at the castle garden. Mario saw her and waved (releasing his end of the picnic basket, causing Luigi to scramble to keep it from tipping over), a big grin on his face (and an exasperated look on his brother's).
"Hello, Peach!" he called.
"Hey, you two!" she called back. "I'll be right out!"
"Okay; we'll get all this set up in the meantime!" Mario returned. "C'mon, Little Bro!"
Luigi rolled his eyes slightly as Cappy now hopped off of Mario's head to assist him with the picnic basket.
"He gets excited really easily, doesn't he?" the Bonnetor observed. "I seemed to observe as much when we traveled through all of those kingdoms. I thought it was the thrill of the adventure, but it seems he's like that even when things are normal."
"Yeah, he's always been like that. You get used to it," Luigi said, with a shrug. He smirked in spite of himself as he began to set up things on the picnic table once Mario had spread the tablecloth over it.
Cappy chuckled and helped out as Mario now also finally began to help out arranging things—at least until Peach and Tiara arrived with the cake, upon which he promptly dropped everything to help carry the cake.
Cappy watched in interest—Toads that were attending to things in the garden stopped to bow to Peach as she walked past. And yet, Mario hadn't bowed to the princess—had he just been overly excited for the picnic? …Come to think of it, Cappy couldn't recall Mario ever bowing to Peach, even during the times they had met up in the various kingdoms after her rescue. At any rate, she didn't seem to mind.
"I know Mario admires the princess very much," he said to Luigi. "He wanted to propose before Bowser interrupted him."
"Uh-huh," Luigi agreed.
"And you see the princess as a friend, too."
"Of course!"
"But neither of you bow to her like the other Toads do," Cappy observed. "I don't mean to pry, but is there a reason?"
Luigi paused for a moment.
"Actually, there is," he said. "Mario did bow to Peach once—a long, long time ago, when we were all very young. We used to play together as little kids—it didn't matter that Peach was a princess and Mario and I weren't royals… Kamek had predicted that my brother and I would bring trouble for the Koopas, and when Peach's father, the King, found out, he wanted us to remain close with Peach. Our papa thought it was great that we had royal connections, but… Mama was more concerned about Kamek having his eye on us. And then there was an alien invasion…" He shuddered; thanks to E. Gadd's time machine, they got to experience the Shroob takeover twice.
"Oh, I see!" Cappy said. "Because you grew up together and went through all that, no one saw the reason for you two to bow to her?"
"Well, actually, no…" Luigi said. "After the alien invasion, Mama insisted that we leave the Mushroom Kingdom. She'd been making plans with Papa without letting the King find out, but then, one day, while all this planning was going on, Bowser—still a prince at the time—showed up at the castle to cause trouble again while Mario and I were there… I'd gotten a bit battered in the fight, and there's no quicker way to make Mario mad than to do that to me…"
                                         **************************************
At that age, there had been little that Mario could have done to avenge his brother, but angrily chasing Bowser around the throne room with a fire flower had apparently been enough to keep young Bowser on the run.
Luigi had been sniffling on the floor as he had sat up, more shaken than hurt, but still on the verge of tears; Peach had been looking from him to Mario, but before she had been able to say or do anything, all four youngsters had nearly leaped out of their skins as the throne room burst open—revealing a very angry woman shrieking in Italian.
Their mother had been angrier than the brothers could have ever imagined—though, in hindsight, she'd had good reason. In an instant, she had raced across the room, gathering Luigi in her arms and now heading for Mario and Bowser.
Bowser had quickly realized he was in a great deal of danger and leaped out the window to get away from the angry mother; Mario had hastily hidden the fire flower behind his back, but before she could question him, the king had chosen that moment to enter the throne room, and she turned her wrath on him instead.
"Is this how you raise children!? My sons and your daughter were attacked by un piccolo demone! Look at what that beast has done to my little Luigi!"
She certainly hadn't bothered to bow, and neither the king nor Toadsworth had been brave enough to remind her of protocol.
"The Shroobs—they came, and you learned nothing!" she had ranted on. "You have had your chances; my boys are not safe here! Si—we go! Ciao!"
"Er… Yes, of course," Toadsworth had said. "This won't happen next time; you have our word-"
"Next time?" she had replied, incredulously. "No! No next time! We are leaving this kingdom! I have been planning this since the Shroobs attacked—but now we must go earlier!"
Luigi had looked at his mother, and then across the room at his brother, who had dropped the fire flower in shock. Leave the Mushroom Kingdom? Leave their friend Peach?
Peach had obviously arrived at the same conclusion, for she immediately started to wail; Mario had tried to get her to cheer up, but it was difficult when he himself was close to tearing up.
The King and Toadsworth had tried to get the brothers' mother to reconsider, but her mind had been set, and they knew that trying to dissuade a protective mother would be a battle they would not be able to win.
Realizing that they had backed down, she had turned to her other son.
"Mario! Vieni, stiamo andando!"
But Peach was still crying, and Mario didn't want to leave her.
"Mario!" his mother said, again, sternly.
Gently, Mario had taken Peach's hand and bowed; she had been surprised and pleased enough to stop crying, managing a small smile. It was short-lived, however; Mario soon found himself being taken by the hand and leaving with his mother and brother, and as the throne room doors closed behind them, they could hear Peach starting to cry all over again…
                                          *************************************
"…And that was what happened," Luigi finished, back in the present. "The only time Mario ever bowed to Peach."
"But you made it back to the Mushroom Kingdom," Cappy said.
"Not intentionally," Luigi admitted. "As we got older, being raised away from all this, we sort of… forgot about the Mushroom Kingdom and Peach and everything as we grew up—I think Mama wanted it that way… She wanted us to have quiet, normal lives where nothing ever happened. She was so happy when Mario and I wanted to get into a normal, everyday career like plumbing. …But then, while on the job, we found the warp pipe back to the Mushroom Kingdom just as Bowser had kidnapped Peach. We still didn't remember her or the Kingdom, but you know how Mario is—if someone needs help, then he's just gotta go help them. Pauline can back me up on that."
"Yes, of course," Cappy said. "He helped me find my sister, even though he had Peach to worry about."
Luigi nodded.
"Mario led the way, and I followed, and we found Peach… We still didn't remember her, but Mario… I remember he just walked up to her and introduced us, saying that we were getting her out of Bowser's castle, and I was kinda embarrassed at first, since the Toads had told us she was their princess, but… Mario thought that the last thing she needed was someone who wasn't going to be open and honest and wouldn't get caught up in all those protocols. Looking back, I think he was right; we'd have been nervous trying to stick to all those rules, and that wouldn't have helped her feel better at all."
"Ohh, so that's why?"
"Partly," Luigi said. "The real decision came right after the rescue, when Peach wanted to formally thank us for the rescue—with a picnic just like this, actually…"
                                                ****************************
Luigi had been staring absently into the window of a store in Toad Town when he had been jolted from his thoughts by his brother calling his name.
"There you are, Luigi! What's up, Little Bro?"
"I'm just thinking about the picnic this afternoon," Luigi had replied. "We need to buy something to wear."
"We do?"
Luigi had given him a look.
"…You don't expect us to go to the princess's castle dressed like this, do you?" he had asked, indicating their work shirts and overalls. "That warp pipe that brought us here seems to be closed now; we can't exactly go back and get our Sunday best. I think we have enough coins to get something nice, though."
"Hmm, I think we'd be better off saving our coins for food and a place to stay," Mario had replied. "With that warp pipe being closed, we might be here a while."
"Oh… Well, that may be, but if we turn up looking like this, we could get thrown out! If we're embarrassed, it'll be harder finding a place to stay…"
"I don't think the princess is like that," Mario had said. "She seemed nice enough when we found her in that castle."
"We did just free her…"
"Trust me on this, Little Bro; it'll be fine—you'll see!"
Mario seemed to have put all doubts behind him, but Luigi had continued to be nervous as they arrived at Peach's castle later that day. Mario strode in with the same confidence he always had, but Luigi had been looking around, noticing the looks from the Toads—and hearing the whispers.
He had known exactly what they were saying—whispering about how these two battle-damaged plumbers were daring to meet the princess dressed in those old rags. Normally, Luigi was never bothered with the fact that he and his brother were maintenance men; life in a big city meant crossing paths with those of a higher standing, and both he and his brother had learned to look white-collar folk in the eyes without being intimidated (not hard when their usual interactions were said white-collar folk begging them to save their backed-up sinks or busted pipes). But this situation had been nothing like that—strangers in a new land, meeting royalty? Luigi couldn't help but feel self-conscious.
Peach, in an elegant gown, had been there in the throne room to greet them—the same throne room where they had been separated all those years ago, and now formally reunited (though they hadn't realized it yet). She had extended her hand like any royal lady would, having been trained to put up with guests kissing her hand, whether or not she was comfortable with the idea.
Mario wasn't going to have any of that; why should she be forced to have her hand kissed just because she was a princess? And, anyway, he had been determined to put the cards on the table and present himself as he was, no false airs or anything like that.
And so, instead of kissing her hand, he shook her hand, as though greeting a friend.
The reaction had been instantaneous; quiet gasps and murmurs from the Toads about how clueless Mario must be began to fill the room, and Toadsworth had been facepalming. And Luigi had begun to blush in secondhand embarrassment at all of this.
But the only ones who hadn't seem embarrassed were Mario and Peach. Mario had been continuing to look her in eyes with a friendly expression, and Peach, though initially surprised by the handshake, had suddenly looked genuinely pleased.
"Mario, I want to formally thank you and your brother Luigi for risking your lives to rescue me from Bowser."
"We always try to help out," Mario had said, with a grin. "And we thank you for this kind gesture of a picnic."
"The pleasure is mine, my friends."
It had been those two words—'my friends'—that had reassured both Mario and Luigi that everything would be fine. And Peach had been reassured, as well, for she had found friends who would treat her without dancing around her and her royalty, as so many others had done.
                                        ********************************
"And that's why we're here, able to be all casual with the princess," Luigi finished. "She's been a great friend to us all these years, the fact that she's a princess and we're just plumbers was never an issue at all." He smiled as he watched Peach gently chide Mario for trying to sneak a taste of the cake before it was time for dessert. "It's also why their friendship can survive the rejection of a wrongly-timed marriage proposal—at the end of the day, they will always care about each other."
"And you," Cappy added.
"And me," Luigi agreed. "And you and Tiara, too—you pretty much joined our circle of friends when you helped Mario out."
"…I'm honored," the Bonnetor said, sounding rather touched.
Luigi smiled.
"C'mon, let's eat!"
Luigi and Cappy caught up to the others and dug in, enjoying the food and company as they ate, all of them grateful for their circle of friends, and being a part of it.

New Mario Movie: Plot Prediction (Part 1)
Yo, folks!
As you may recall, around six months ago, we received word that a new Mario movie was in development over at Illumination Studios.
I’m pretty optimistic about this movie, but I feel like I might be in the minority here. Yes, Minions are oversaturated, but it’s not like Illumination makes bad films. The Despicable Me movies do so well not just because of Minions but because they’re genuinely funny and fun. All of Illumination’s work is gorgeously animated, even the stuff that doesn’t do well, and I feel like their fun and bouncy animation style suits Mario pretty well. I feel like the Mario characters may end up looking and moving like they do in Mario + Rabbids, which had a more fluid and expressive style than Nintendo’s usual cutscenes. 
Tumblr media
But, a lot of you may be wondering, as I am, what the plot of this movie will be. Mario games, with a few exceptions, tend to be light on plot, at the request of Shigeru Miyamoto himself, who thinks games are at their best when they’re light on story. It was also Miyamoto who approached Illumination for a Mario movie and is producing the film, so presumably he’s not against a story with Mario, just a story in a Mario game. 
Well, I’ve given in a lot of thought (more than I probably should), and I’ve come with a story that might work as an animated film. The story below may have no similarity at all with the actual plot of the actual film, but at this point in development, I have just as much a clue as anybody else what that film will be like.
This is the first of several parts, so please bear with me:
Right, so, in my mind, this movie will be in a separate continuity from the games. Whether or not a whole AU will branch off from the movie depends on if the movie is successful enough to get sequels, which, to be honest, it probably will be. 
As such, the film, will serve as an introduction to the Mario world and characters to attract movie goers who have never touched a video game. So, this will be a retelling of Mario’s first adventure. However, simply adapting the first Super Mario Bros. will not work. Traveling from world to world fighting silent monsters only to get cockblocked by seven Toads does not a movie make.
Instead, they’ll have to come up with something more dramatic for Mario’s first rescue.
But, first, we open with a prologue that goes something like this:
Once upon a time, there were two neighboring kingdoms.
A kingdom of light
Tumblr media
and a kingdom of darkness.
Tumblr media
The kingdom of darkness was a place of smoke and fire and fearsome monsters. But, the kingdom of light was blessed by the goodness of their ruler and the power of the stars.
You see, whenever the denizens of the kingdom performed an act of kindness, selflessness, or goodwill, a star would appear. And the people were so good to each other that there was never a short supply of stars. 
The people of the Mushroom Kingdom used these stars as a source of power. The stars were powerful enough to keep the lights on at night, their homes warm in winter, their appliances running smoothly. Everyone in the Mushroom Kingdom lived comfortably because of the stars.
But the neighboring kingdom, sadly, was not so blessed. No matter how kind or good anybody was to anybody else, no stars would appear. And so, the people of the kingdom lived in darkness.
The fearsome ruler of the kingdom of darkness envied the light of the neighboring kingdom.
“Light,” we are to understand, refers both to the stars and to the fair princess.
So, he decided to take them both for himself. 
The film proper opens with Bowser’s forces invading Peach’s Castle.
Oh, yes, that’s how we’re starting.
Because there’s no hero to stop them, you see. 
So, a couple of Toads are up on the battlements, patrolling idly, asking about baseball scores
WHEN SUDDENLY the air becomes smoky and ashy. The smell is horrible.
They cough and cover their faces. “What is that smell?”
A shadow falls. They look up and see Bowser’s airship hovering just overhead. 
Without any power stars, it runs on coal, and a huge plume of black smoke rises behind it. Monsters begin to drop from above onto the castle. Fly Guys dropping Goombas, Lakitus dropping Spinies, Paratroopas dropping themselves. The scene turns to chaos within seconds.
The Toads on the roof are swatted aside like flies. But a few manage to get inside and sound the alarm.
The scene that follows is not unlike the opening of Mario Galaxy, except it in the castle, rather than outdoors. Toads fight valiantly against the onslaught of monsters. What’s more, the Toads receive assistance from the power stars.
When a Toad protects another in battle or takes a risk, a star appears, and he grabs it for a power boost, giving him an edge against the monsters.
However, the power of the star soon fades, and even with the stars, the Toads aren’t battle-ready enough to stop the invaders.
Joining the battle is none other than the princess herself, aglow with star power (tee hee!)
But as soon as her star wears off, Toadsworth pulls her aside.
He tells her to wait in a hidden compartment in the wall, where she’ll be safe. 
Peach is reluctant, but Toadsworth half-convinces, half-shoves her into compliance. 
Not long after Peach hides, the battle is brought to a halt with the Boos appear and use their powers to rust through the bolt holding the door outside shut.  
And that thing flies off its hinges. 
The Toads cower as Bowser himself steps into the room
Preceded by Kamek, who’s in this movie, too.
Bowser grabs Toadsworth and demands that he tell him where the princess is.
Toadsworth claims that Peach has already fled the castle, but Bowser’s not convinced. 
“What kind of ruler turns and runs while her people fight?
“You calling Peach a chicken?”
Bowser’s about to sauté Toadsworth right there in front of everybody when someone yells, “STOP!”
Bowser turns and sees Peach herself.
“I’m right here, Bowser.”
Bowser is all simpering smiles as he drops Toadsworth like seven feet to the ground. 
“Princess, look at you!
“Lovely as ever, I see~!”
Peach ignores him and runs over to Toadsworth. 
“Princess, what are you doing out here?”
Peach: “Bowser, please don’t hurt them anymore.
“I’ll go with you. Just leave them alone.”
Bowser is thrilled. “You mean it?”
Peach: “I’ll go wherever you want. All I ask is that no harm comes to my citizens.”
The Toads are frantic. “No, Princess! Don’t leave us!” 
Toadsworth is the most heartbroken of them all. 
“Princess, you can’t!”
Peach helps Toadsworth to his feet and whispers.
“Toadsworth, I need to take care of everyone while I’m away. Promise me.
“And, Toadsworth, find someone who can help us.
“I’m counting on you!”
At this moment, two Hammer Bros. grab Peach and physically drag her away from Toadsworth, onto the airship parked outside.
A star float behind her in her wake, created by her choice to sacrifice herself. 
That star is clenched in Bowser’s fist.
“Finally. Everything is mine!”
Toadsworth is still defiant. 
“You're not my ruler or any of ours!
“This kingdom belongs to Princess Peach!”
Bowser: “Yeah, but see, Peach belongs to me. 
“Funny how that works out.
“This is your own fault, you know. 
“None of you weaklings were tough enough to save her. 
“You twerps don’t get to decide anything. I do. 
“And nobody can save you.”
Cut, that same night, to the home of the Mario Bros.
The phone is ringing, and Mario is asleep.
I mean, mouth open, drool on pillow, covers kicked off the bed ASLEEP.
The phone rings four times, goes silent, then starts ringing again.
So Mario has no choice but to get up.
He blearily gets up, moves past Luigi on the bottom bunk, who has not stirred at all, by the way, and answers the phone.
“Hello?”
“Hi, is this Mario Bros. Plumbing?”
Mario and Luigi run a plumbing service in the Metro Kingdom. They barely make enough to get by.
Mario apologizes. We don’t take business calls before eight am... which is four hours from now.
The woman on the other line insists its an emergency. 
Mario can hear water running over the phone. Wait, what’s going on?
It turns out the woman is standing in her kitchen up to her waist in water. The sink is spraying like a Super Soaker. 
Mario gently suggests she try shutting off the water.
She insists that she did, but the handle on the faucet twisted off in her hand. 
Mario attempts to clarify. “No, not the sink, I mean-”
But then thinks better of it. “On second thought, we’ll be right there. What’s your address again?”
Thus begins the long process of getting Luigi out of bed. Mario resorts to dragging Luigi out by his ankle. His face drags on the floor.
Our heroes, ladies and gentlemen.
It’s still dark when the Bros. arrive in their van at the woman’s house. 
The job is a real drag, not just because the Bros. are walking around in water almost to their shoulders and have to bail out with the house with buckets before they can work on the sink
But also because the woman herself is an absolute nightmare. 
She frequently berates them for working too slow, watches them like a hawk out of paranoia that they’ll steal something, and weirdest of all, seems to object very strongly to them speaking Italian. 
Even when they’re just speaking to each other about the sink.
“Don’t you know, English?” she asks.
Mario dearly wants to say, “Of course I do. Did you not hear me speaking English on the phone with you at four am this morning?”
But, of course, he can’t say that, so he just apologizes and whispers to Luigi: “English.” 
Which leads to an awkward moment when Luigi can’t remember the English word for a chiave, 
So he asks Mario for a “swish-swish!” while awkwardly pantomiming.
By the time the job is done, the sun is up. Both boys are sitting in the van completely soaked. Their hats are still dripping and everything.
They both look incredibly exhausted.
Mario, a little punchy: “Hey, Luigi,
“You think people would like us better if we were buttons?”
Luigi has no idea what Mario is talking about. 
“You’re driving. Don’t fall asleep yet, bro.”
“You know, if we were like buttons. All you had to do was push us and the sink was fixed. It seems like people would be happier if they didn’t have to deal with us talking or thinking or whatever. Just push the button and we go.” 
Luigi shrugs. They’re little guys. People don’t care about them. He’s used to that.
Luigi is asleep by the time the van pulls back up to their house. Mario looks down at his brother and wishes he could give him more.
To be continued...

Chapter 6(Koopa kingdom Fanfiction Draft)
Chapter 6
(Jennifer’s point of view)
“I’m right here baby! Ran so fast you’ve thought I was the Flash. Thank you Ludwig, Kamek, and King Bowser for allowing to speak and also to team up with you guys to make that Fawfull would stop line of terror of Bean beam, Mushroom, and Koopa Kingdom for decades. All I wanted to say is I know that I’m a foreigner but I would make sure to keep go aside Ludwig, King Koopa, the Koopa army. (the crowed started to cheer even louder) But I think it’s time to allow your King to have his chance to shine also to put his 2 cents in, plus I must get back to castle to work on my next mission with my dear Ludwig(wink). Now my dear I need truly need to fix my transporting device when Midbus and Fawful kidnapped me, Midbus had pour water on in. So, I need Iggy to at least help me with replacing the boards. Not just that I really need to get back home, so my mom she wouldn’t think I went missing, and then after that I’ll pack up my things and move in your universe. I hope you don’t mind my dear love?” Explaining while we walked towards the castle. “Do what you need to Jennifer, I’ll be waiting for you once you come back to me (kissing the back of my hand) let me escort you to my brother’s room. (25 mins later Ludwig knocks on Iggy bedroom door). Iggy, Jennifer needs your asstiance by fixing her teleportation device.” “And why should trust a human Ludwig, for all we know she could’ve help kill Fawful for the Mushroom Kingdoms gain. She could’ve an undercover spy, so I’m not bloody helping you two figure it out on your own.” Before he had the chance to close his door I slammed it back open putting my hand on his neck slamming him against the wall. “Now you listen here Iggy, if it wasn’t for me or Ludwig. You’ve been bloody dead, and to me you need our help. So, basically you owe us this bloody ass favor if you like or not. Not just that why would I work for Mario for, he probably wouldn’t been able to afford a chick like me/Lira, and not just that I can’t stand Mario anyways. Like or not I’m here to stay and going to make sure nothing happens to you koopalings, King Koopa, and the rest of the Koopa army.” “Yea okay, I’ll do it for you and you’re right. Just let me go, damn I thought that Roy, Ludwig, and Larry was crazy but you’re just as bad. I don’t need to cross you Jennifer, come with me to my lab. Okay, give me the item please and thank you (hands it to him), I never seen anything like this before. Its amazing workmanship, you have to show me one day how you did it, you know what I was wrong about you, because even the Mushroom Kingdom couldn’t make such a device including yours truly.” Me and Ludwig just wanted him to get this over with. “Well, thank you, but we can’t waste any time with this, because this may take a day or two. Both of them agreed, telling them that we needed to give this bad boy an upgraded teleport arm device. Iggy do you have a 250 gb Hard drive and a better mother board?” “I don’t have one, me or Ludwig may have to magically give them to you.” “Iggy you know more about this then I do you know that, but I’ll try to help the best way that a true leader can.” Iggy just sighs trying to be easy towards Ludwig, I kind of giggle at Iggy. “Ludwig and Iggy, I guess should’ve gave you guys the blue prints to my invention right. And I know you guys are going say you should’ve gave us that from the start, but I wasn’t thinking that my equipment was going to get damaged.” (Pulling my blueprints from my backpack). “Only thing is we can’t do it here because all the work we have to do, but don’t worry about it I know where we should go that nobody knows about. So, please don’t tell anybody about this location, if you do I’ll make sure you both will regret it for sure.” Explaining while transporting us to an unknown location, and it looks like a CIA type laborty very fancy and high tech. “Wow Iggy! This place is a lot nicer then the places I seen before, not even NASA could have a lab such as this.” “It’s nothing really, but we do need to get to work Ludwig, I know you don’t want to do anything technical anymore we do need your help with this.” “Oh I would love to lead this project and you can’t no Iggy, just like you said I’ll do the same thing if you try me and telling me what to do or give me a negative type comment.” “Ludwig, please relax that, save that attuide for later my love, I need your and Iggy brains and handy work to make sure we don’t waste any time, so please will you both please help me. Explaining while trying to gathered all the equipment that I need. Okay, Iggy, I need for you to build me a those gigabytes and SSD (soft drive) please and thank you.” “Only thing about this would be that you need an upgrade, 20x the amount, if you want to this hand part of an armer. Maybe, we could built you a full body gear, but that’s if you’re willing to go with my brand new project. Replying while walking towards his suit collection wall. Now see, I was going to wait til the time was right, but didn’t think it would’ve been this soon, these suits were supposed to be for us Koopalings/Koopa army. But I guess you need it as well, just to make an extra one and good thing this is a custom fit… “How long would this take Iggy?” Ludwig you know I have a wand as well if you want it super quick right.” “Great let’s get this done, because I really need to go back to my universe to gather my items then head back here. Just hopefully your father still isn’t pissed off from me coming here and wonders that I’m a spy for the mushroom kingdom, but like I mention you couldn’t pay me enough to pretend that princess peach was being kidnapped.” “What a minute you knew she wasn’t really being kidnapped and they were both in love, Ludwig, did you tell her about that?” Iggy wondered while looking at Ludwig. “No, I never told her that, I’m just finding this out.” “Okay, Ludwig, remember when I told you that I didn’t expect for this kingdom to be real, so in my universe this place is part of a Nintendo gaming series very well-known one. This kingdom and Bean Beam Kingdom are enemies to the Mushroom kingdom, Mario is the hero that saves Princess Peach and Daisy, but sometimes you guys work with him including Luigi, not just that Mario Kart and Mario tennis. There’s so many games that were based from you universe. So, basically we all know about you guys just don’t know who’s your real parents except for Ludwig real mother that was in one of the paper Mario games I believe in Nintendo 64. But any who we don’t need to worry about this just get me back home, we can talk about this later. My mom is probably worry about me knowing her I already know she called the police on me by now or thinks I’m six feet underground.” “What do you want me to do Iggy and Jennifer, so it doesn’t seem like I’m just standing around, I feel bored right now and useless you make me in charge of the whole thing.” “Only problem with that would be is this is my lab, you don’t get to own me when we’re here just because your little girlfriend is here doesn’t mean anything, so let’s back to work brother. Explains while unlocking a suit chamber. Here you go try it on Jen to see how you like it, and don’t worry about it nobody has worn it not even Morton. It fit like a beautiful glove. So, how you like Ms. Jennifer?” “Oh Iggy, I love it, I think we’re going to be best friends, but you Ludwig is going to be my deadly lover more than ever. You know damn well I couldn’t live without you. Iggy I just need to know how we’re going to fix this multi verse thing, maybe one of you guys could just use some of the items here and magically make it possible.” “Oh crap forgot all about that Ms. Jen, Ludwig I actually need your help with this, you know what spell I’m talking about right.” “You mean that same spell we did when we were kids and it was meant for King Bowser?” Iggy nods yes, as they all the items that I needed and the show they preformed their music show, it was something I could ever dream of was so damn beautiful. “Okay Jen, all fixed up and not you should be able to go back home now. And just wanted to tell you that I shouldn’t had judge you before getting to know you, hopefully you forgive me.” Saying while holding his hand out. “No problem Iggy this person never helds a grudge dude, and baby I can’t wait to come back to you (kisses) my dear love.” “I can’t wait either, but I’ll wait for you till the dawn of time my deadly princess.” Says after kissing my hand. Putting in the couration to bring me back home, pointing it to wall and this was a lot better system then my old one, gave them a last goodbye before hopping into my bedroom. “MOM, I’m home! Where are you?” “Oh my god, Chanel, I thought something had happened to you.” She said while holding me tight, just like I thought there was cops around. “Can me and my mom talk alone please.” “Sure, ma’am we’re been looking for you for a month now. We’ll leave you guys alone for now call us if you two anything from us.” We both agreed while showing them to the door. “You better tell me where you been at for a month.” “It’s been a month, that couldn’t been that long, I was been go atleast a day or two at the Koopa Kingdom. Look I know you didn’t want me to go there, but I was so curius and it was the most amazing thing that I ever experenise. I had to kill one of their enemies and also was kidnapped, but I’m fine, only came back so you wouldn’t worry about me. But I guess a day there It’s a month in this universe, as I was saying I need to pack up and go back to the Koopa Kingdom promised them to come back there and help them protect the kingdom from the other enemies that may wanted to cause harm towards them.” “If it wasn’t for the fact I saw it for myself, would never had believed you, but if you need to go back to help someone in need go right ahead. Just glad that you’re in one piece, and about the suit where you get it from let me guess the Koopa Kingdom.” “I can’t tell you that supposed to keep it a secret, but I do have to go now going to miss and always love you mom no matter what. Giving her the biggest hug that I could give her after I finish packing didn’t have that much to grab. But I’ll come back on your birthday, mothers day, and every other day, even if you say no still going to do so.” After doing this another time thought it wouldn’t happened a second timing, checking every place that they could’ve ran off to, found Ludwig went back into his room, guessing that Iggy did the same thing. Waved here goodbye. Oh my Ludwig, everytime I leave your side feels like my world was going to end, even though it wasn’t a minute.” “Oh, my dear princess couln’t wait for you either it was killing me inside my cold heart. Saying this while kissing my arm going towards my neck. Your love is driving me wild and you’re the only human that understands and completes me… (Knocking) Who is it?” “It just us Ludwig, the rest already know about your girlfriend.” Iggy replied while opening the door. “Oh Ludwig who’s your girlfriend?” “I’m Jennifer and you must be Wendy O’ Koopa right?” “Bingo girly, and you probably already know the right of the Koopalings.” “Morton wants to know if you have any food on you?” “No man I don’t, didn’t know I was going to feed a big ass dude. And you must be Larry, how are you doing kiddo?” “I’m doing fine ma’am, and it’s great to have you on the team, if Ludwig likes you we do too. Only problem is Ludwig if our dad would accept her you know how King Bowser is including Kamek.” “Oh trust me he has to accept my deadly princess, and if he lays a hand on her I’ll make sure he’ll never gets to see his bloody son ever again and drag his corpse on the kingdom streets.” “I love the sound of that my dear love and I’ll help you on that sadistic killing and support you every step of the way my Ludwig.” While saying this they all looked at us like we were beyond crazy, but I didn’t care how they felt about our sadistic love affair, only person I should care about is my dear Ludwig, and I love the way he thinks and act. “I can’t believe I’ve met someone not just beautiful but deadly aswell, and Jennifer, I’ll make sure to you more of a better deadlier woman then you already are.(kisses my arm while they all watch) What you morons never seen how a real man treat his princess?” “It’s not that, bro. Just that you guys are freaking us out, plus we’re not morons, maybe Morton but not the rest of us.” “Nice one Larry.” Iggy and Wendy had replied. You can tell it “Hey! Morton isn’t a moron, Morton is smart. If you insult Morton… Then Ludwig interrupts him buy going between them. “Shut the hell up! You’re going to drive me insanse one damn day, and Lemmy don’t say “I’m already insane” and I have to say about that I’m not just a dark and edgy gentleman who’s trying to keep take the throne for myself.” “I guess if you become King we may just drink English tea and listen to some classical music.” Roy jokfully said while placing his hand on Ludwig’s shoulder. “You have up to 2 to get off my shoulder or I’ll hurt your arm so damn bad till the point you’ll be eating your food throu a tube. Now Koopalings, I think me and my Jennifer need to be alone I’ll let you guys know if we have a meeting or have to invade Mushroom Kingdom, and how we supposed to train that brat Junior. Explaining them this as he shows them the door. Now please don’t come to my room unless you fixing to die, I’m sorry my dear love about those imgrates. “We all can hear you asshole.” They all said this while walking around and also laughed at him. Get the fuck out I swear to god, you going make me turn you morons into a 3 course meal for me and my love.” (Sigh) “Ludwig, don’t let those ungreatful Koopas get to you, because they’ll see your greatness soon enough my dear.” “I hope so my princess, because they’re hold me back for my place in the throne including that brat, Junior. That brat has ruined my chances on ever allowing me to set foot on that throne, only way I could every take it from him if he was never born. But I know that’ll never would happen, unless we could use that device of yours to go back in time to make sure Bowser never met Juniors mom,” “But Ludwig, you know if we do this, there’s a chance that it may go wrong with my universe. And when I mean by that I wouldn’t been born my dear love, don’t want that to happened, we need to make sure that we do this in a safe way that your world including mine wouldn’t cause any serious damage to our timeline. Not just that also get away with it, make the long story short don’t want anything to happen to you/your clan, or me. But I’ll be there by your side no matter what, includes Lira you thought I wasn’t going to include her aswell.” “You have a point there Jennifer, maybe should think of a better plan. Just don’t know how, maybe if we get the rest of the Koopalings invald in our mission to take over Koopa kingdom. The only problem is that I know some of my team would snitch to that ratchet King. “Why would you think that?” You don’t know them like I do, mostly Morton, Iggy, Larry, including Wendy would diffently how you humans say “snitch” on one of another…” “But maybe they’ll change their minds soon enough, like they always say it’s better to be patence then rush perfection my dear love and not just that I don’t want to lose you Ludwig. (Kissing him so deeply)I know you don’t want the others to help us out, but we do need to make sure that the others will be on our side, you ust need to presade them to follow your lead. I know you can my dear Ludwig.” (Knocking) “Ludwig, may I come in it’s very important? If you must know just Iggy, so don’t worry. Iggy what do you want now? I’ll tell you but not in the hall way.  Okay, what’s so damn important to the point you have some to interrupting us. (Iggy pulls out a chair) Well, all I have to say is when you guys killed Fawful and Midbus(sigh), let off a chain effect and not in a good way either. When I looked at the Koopa scanners and reports with the other Toopas, Fawful Kingdom figured the whole thing. Guess I’m trying to say is once a bee dies the whole connay comes behind and attack the enemy, so what I’m trying to say that we need to make sure that we’re ready also we need Jennifer/Lira help.Wait a minute is Bowser and Kamek still having that meeting with the Goombas and Koopa troopas right? “The last time we check they sure were, we just same came from there. But they probarly left already Iggy, only way we can get their attention if we did some type alarm and you have to give a anounment about the soon to be invasion. Maybe this is me and Lira fault we should never had come here, if I could guess Fawfall wasn’t supposed to die including midbus. My dear princess it’s not your fault, guess I made my hate towards him get to me and didn’t want him to harm my beautiful princess.” I don’t want to ruin this touching moment, but we do have prepare for a battle between kingdoms. Iggy, maybe we should call Bowser, Kamek, and the gang to make sure they stay behind to make sure we could make another meeting about the invasion.” Yea, sure I could text Kamek to see if their still at the office meeting. (Texting Kamek) “Hey Iggy, yes we’re still here, guessing you guys needed to say something. I’ll make sure to let them know about you guys joining in aswell, even though Bowser may not like it.” Okay, Kamek is going to try to keep them busy. Let’s get this battle over with. (at Koopa Inc. office) “Iggy you better explain yourself on why you need Kamek to keep us here? Look Bowser I know you guys are very tired and wanted to go back home but this is very important that the Koopa army needed to hear. The Bean Beam Kingdom is going to invade our kingdom, because what we did Fawful and his bodyguard. If we don’t prepare for battle we all going to end up 6 feet underground, the only reason how I know about this his King and Queen had sent me a message and it was legit checked it so many damn times till the point I lost count. They may come by next week.” Kamek and Ludwig, grab the rest of the Koopalings and prepared for battle.

Luigi Falls Apart (Mario Bros Shortfic)
Luigi Falls Apart (Fan-made parody of “Daisy Falls Apart”) ~~~ [Mario and Luigi (c) Nintendo] ~~~ Luigi’s phone buzzed in his pocket. Knowing exactly who it was, he took it out and declined it. “Shtop ccalling me…..stupd dumb brother……” he said, shoving the phone back into his pocket. He was very drunk; it was hard for anyone to miss. They all wondered what Mario would be thinking if and/or when he saw his younger brother like that. The bartender toad handed Luigi another drink. “You know, he's probably worried about you.” he said to him, referring to Mario. “Ggood. Let-a *hic* him be. Imma grown man! I ccan *hic* take care of *hic* mself.” Luigi responded, just barely understandable in his drunken state. “Th’only reason that I-a know I *hic* can take care’f mself is bcause Ma*hic*rio aaalmost aaalways leaves-a me at-a home, and *hic* and-a whenevr I DO go with him, he ggets AAAAALL the attention and-a praise. Bbut then what-a does *hic* Luigi get? What kind-a award does Mari*hic*o’s brother get?” he continued, ranting. “Uh-” the bartender toad tried to answer. “HEEE GETS-A NOTHING!” Luigi yelled, somehow not able to catch the attention of the whole bar. “Poor old Weegie gets-a lEFT BEHIND AGain and *hic* noobody evr noticesss….” he continued, taking a sip of his drink. The bartender toad was about to say something, but stopped himself when he saw another sober toad outside the bar jumping up and down and waving to somebody outside. He watched as the sober toad stopped waving. He stood there for a few seconds before nodding; he was obviously talking to someone. The toad then jumped up and down some more while pointing inside the bar. When he stopped, he moved out of the way; and as soon as the bartender toad saw Mario appear in the doorway, he gestured towards Luigi before walking away to serve some other guests, letting Mario run up behind his brother. “There you are!!!” the older brother shouted. “AAH!!!!” the younger brother shouted in return, startled by the older’s sudden appearance. Mario, ignoring the fact that he nearly just gave his only sibling a heart attack, went on. “What were you-a thinking?! You scared-a me half to death!!!” he shouted. “Oh reeeeeally??” Luigi responded nonchalantly and semisarcastically. “Yes! I've-a been looking all over the kingdom for-a you!!! I almost had-a the princess start a search party for you!!” Mario replied, still shaking a little from fright over his brother going missing for a while. Luigi saw this and ignored it. “Tch…i’snot like-a yOU would caree, BIGnose.” he said, pressing his nose up against his brother’s. Mario, confused, ignored it. “What in-a powerstar’s name are-a you going on abou-” he was almost able to get the question out of his mouth. “YOU, MARIO!!” Luigi shouted, cutting him off. “YOU ANd-a AAALL your mANY VICTORies. You-a defeted BOwser, and, and-a you rESCUed Peach, and, and….and-a you-a saved Daisy….and you…a-and you rescued PEAch….and…….di-did I-a say you rescued Peach…?” Luigi asked. “Yes, Luigi. Three times.” Mario replied, unamused. “YEah, gguess what? Last time we both saved-a the prINCess, NObody, nnot evn Peach hersELf, so mmuch as-a even LOOKed at me!! I-a eeven waved at-a you and yOu didn't evn notice mee!!!” Luigi said, adding on to his previous statement. “I-a ALways ffeel so-a lonely, and i’s becus nobody seems-a to ccAre abou’ me.” he continued, looking away from Mario with a sad expression on his face. Mario was surprised at this. “Weegie….how-a come you never told-a me? I-a surely would've done something!” Mario asked, pure concern in his eyes. When Luigi didn't respond, Mario started to feel his big brother senses come on. “Weegie?” he asked. “Answer me, bro, please.” he continued. There was a pause before Luigi finally responded. “I-a didn't want to be a burden to you…” the green brother said quietly. This shocked Mario beyond belief. He had absolutely no idea what to say or do; he could only hang his head as a wave of guilt passed through him. He didn't feel like he'd been a good brother at all. Well, now was the time to redeem himself. “Bro….do-a you want to know the truth?” he asked Luigi, placing a hand on his back. Luigi nodded. Mario sighed before speaking. “…I worry about you a lot, bro.” he said. Luigi looked up at him with saddish eyes. “You-a do?” he asked. “Yeah.” Mario replied. “….Why?” Luigi asked, still giving his brother the same look. “Because of-a how you are.” Mario replied almost immediately. “You-a get paranoid so easily, and-a that allows you to get scared of just about everything. It-a makes me afraid to leave you alone for too long, especially when I'm-a out saving Peach.” he continued. Luigi squinted at him with a serious expression. “Go on.” he said. Mario was a little weirded out by this, but he kept going nonetheless. “Well…..” he started, rubbing his neck. “….sometimes when I'm-a out saving Peach, I…I-a have scary thoughts about you that-a cross my mind that-a make me want to turn around and-a run back home.” he continued, now nervous. “Really? Like-a what?” Luigi asked. Mario turned his head, his eyes seemingly shadowed by the brim of his red cap. “I-a don't wanna talk about it…” he said in a slight whisper. “That's-a fine…” Luigi responded, not wanting to make the mood anymore gloomy. “I-a do care about you, little bro. Nothing in the world can change that.” Mario spoke again out of the blue. “And-a so does Yoshi! He's always asking me where you are when-a he sees me! And-a Toad likes to see you, too! And so does Peach!” he continued. A small smile spread across Luigi’s face as Mario named off their friends. “And Daisy is-a your girlfriend, of course!” Mario added. Luigi’s whole body tensed up and his eyes widened in surprise and shock at the mention Daisy’s name. However, Mario didn't notice this. “See, Luigi? We-a do care about you!” Mario concluded cheerfully. But when he saw Luigi down the last of his drink with one swig, his smile faded. “Stop-a that.” he said, snatching the glass of now ice from Luigi's hand. Luigi put his pointer finger up and opened his mouth to say something, but it closed and his finger drooped as his face turned as green as his outfit. “Um, bro? You okay?” Mario asked, once again filled with concern. “I-a don't feel well….” Luigi replied shakily, holding his stomach. As he bent over his legs, he felt Mario start to rub his back. That didn't last long, though; Mario retracted his hand as fast as lightning when his brother puked all over himself. “Doesn't surprise me.” the bartender toad appeared in front of them and handed Mario a napkin to give to Luigi. “Don't worry about cleaning up. I've been doin’ it for a long time.” he continued. After saying thank you to the bartender, Mario gave the napkin to his brother, who raised his head up a little after using it to wipe his face. “…uuuuugh….” he moaned. Mario rubbed his head with a small smile. “You okay, little bro?” he asked, attempting to cheer him up. Once again, the unexpected occurred. Luigi began to cry. First, it was quiet. Then it got louder. “WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!” the younger brother wailed before burying his face into his hands. “Mama mia!! C-Calm down, Weegie!” Mario said, startled. “What's-a the matter?” he continued. “These were my-a last pair of clean overaaaaalls!!” Luigi cried. “Well, mine-a need to be washed anyways, so we can-a both-a change into something else at home, huh?” Mario told him. “That's not the only reason!” Luigi exclaimed, looking up at his brother with a tear-soaked face. “What's the other reason?” Mario asked curiously. Luigi cried a bit more before answering. “DAISY DUMPED MEEEEEEEEEE!!!!” he shouted. “SHE WHAT?!?!” Mario shouted in return. “Yeah!” Luigi responded. “She-a dumped me for PEASLEY!!!” he continued. “Mama mia!! That's-a terrible! Why Peasley of all people?” Mario asked. “It's-a because she said that-a he was more mature than me!” Luigi exclaimed. “More?! If anything, Peasley is-a LESS mature than you!” Mario said, now mad. “I knoooow!!” Luigi agreed through his tears. Finally, Mario reached over and wrapped his now sobbing brother in the biggest, most loving hug he could muster. As Luigi sobbed quietly into his shoulder, he rubbed his back soothingly. “Shhh…” he whispered. “Don't cry anymore, Weegie. I promise, I'll-a do whatever it takes to help-a you win Daisy back.” he continued. “Y-You will??” Luigi asked with a sniffle. “Of-a course. Anything for my little brother.” Mario replied, smiling. Luigi felt another smile cross his face as well. “Thank yoouu….” he said, returning the hug. Mario replied by softly humming to soothe him more. After about a minute, Mario stopped the hug and held his brother in front of him. “Now then, let’s-a go home and-a change, eh? Then we can play some Mario Kart 8!!” he said, wiping Luigi's tears away. Luigi chuckled. “I'd-a like that a lot.” Luigi replied, finally giving off a big smile. Of course, Mario was happy to see it. The two bros climbed down from their stools and were about to leave when they heard a voice from behind. “Ahem.” it said. When the bros turned around, they noticed the bartender toad waving a hand as if he wanted something. “Ya gotta pay, Luigi.” he said. “I'll-a pay for him. How much?” Mario asked, pulling out his wallet. “Fifty coins.” the bartender replied. “FIFTY?!??!!?!” Mario exclaimed. “How many drinks did-a he have?!” he asked. “Ten. And they're five coins each.” the bartender replied. Mario's lower right eyelid twitched once before he turned around to look at Luigi, who gave him a small nervous laugh. Mario couldn't be mad at him long though; he'd been through a lot. “Alrighty, here you go.” Mario sighed, giving the bartender 50 of his gold coins. “Thank you. You boys have a nice day.” the bartender said with a smile. “You too.” Mario said as he and his bro left. “ Don't-a EVER get that many drinks again.” he semiwhispered into Luigi's ear as he pulled him down by the arm. “Don't worry big bro, I-a don't plan on it.” Luigi replied, loosening himself from his brother's grip. And with that, the Mario Brothers made their way home. They changed clothes, and played Mario Kart 8 until the day’s end. The End

Mario
Mario: (Starts Growling in Anger..... Only to Calm Himself Down by Taking a Few Deep Breaths on Screen)
Samus: (Turns to Mario) You seem to calmed yourself down pretty quickly there.
Fox: Yeah. To be honest, I was kind of expecting you get a bit more mad there, Mario.
Mario: (Chuckles Lightly While Rubbing the Back of his Head Back and Forth) Well, you see, Peach was the one who actually taught me to deep breaths exercises. Especially in sports games.
Samus: (Genuinely Surprised) Really?
Peach: (Smiles Brightly) That's right! I wanna make sure my handsome knight in shining armor doesn't get himself stressed out too easily.
Mario: (Smiles Brightly) I was meaning to thank you for that, Peach. I really think this exercise is working pretty good so far.
Peach: (Hugs Mario's Arm with an Heartwarming Smile) You don't need to thank me for that, dear~ You know full well that your health and happiness are the two things that are most important to me, right?~
Mario: (Kiss the top of Peach's Forehead) Of course, dear~
Luigi
Luigi: (Grits his Teeth in Anger Towards the Screen All While One of his Eyes Starts Twitching) I....am.... Luigi.......
Dedede: (Eyes Widened in Genuine Surprise) Damn, boy.....I never seen you get this pissed before...
Cloud: Neither does any of us. (Frowns a Little) Did someone say anything to you during the game that made you that upset?
Luigi: (Shrugged) Maybe? (Chuckles Lightly) Honestly, it's so been long since any of us been on that soccer field that I don't really remember quite a lot of what happened there. Other than growing big that one time-
Daisy: (Immediately Hugs Luigi)
Luigi: (Taken a bit Back By Daisy's Sudden Hug) D-Daisy?
Daisy: Luigi, you know that if there's anything that is bothering you.....(Looks Up to Luigi with a Sad and Nurturing Look on her Face) I'm always here to listen and help, right?
Mario: (Place his Hand on Luigi's Shoulder) So as Peach and I as well, bro.
Peach: (Nodded with a Worried Frown)
Tifa: (Frowns Worryingly Along with Everyone Else in the Living Room) And the rest of us too. We're always here for you whenever you need us, Luigi. That's a promise.
Dedede: That's right. And I'mma smack someone in the head with a mallet if anyone talk shit about you, boy! That's also a promise.
Luigi: Guys, you have nothing to worry about here. I mean, sure, maybe something did happened during the game that made me upset that day...a-and maybe I do have a few people looking down on me every now and then, but I promise you I'm perfectly okay now that I have all of you with me in my life.
Daisy: (Snuggles onto Luigi) We believe you, sweetie. We just wanted make extra sure that you're loved and appreciated here.

Bayonetta: Goodness. (Starts Smirking Playfully Towards Peach) I never realized our sweetheart of a princess became such a brat in this one~
Palutena: (Starts Snickering) I know, right? This almost seem so surreal yet so funny to watch.
Peach: (Facepalms While Blushing in Embarrassment) I was really hoping you all wouldn't see that.....
Samus: So.....(Starts Smirking Towards the Princess as Well) you mind giving us a rundown on what's happening on that screen?
Peach: ('Sigh') I was only trying to get into characteron the soccer field, okay?! (Crossed her Arms and Begins to Pout) I didn't want anyone to think of me as just an ordinary, boring princess. So I figured I act more like a drama queen of sorts.....I think it worked too well in my opinion.......
Fox: (Watches Peach Yelling at one of her Teammates Before Stomping Around Again on Screen) It definitely shows alright.....
Daisy
Daisy: Hot stuff! (Place Her Thumb on the Side of her Butt, Which Cause it to Sizzle) Yeah~
'Silence'
Cloud: (Eyes Widened in Complete Shock) Did we..... Seriously just watched that?
Tifa: (Eyes Widened) Yep......
Dedede: (Eyes Widened) Y'all, I'm having so many feelings on this right now it ain't even funny......
Samus: (Facepalm while Sighing) What the hell was that, Daisy?
Daisy: (Chuckles Awkwardly) Sorry you guys had to see that. I...uhh....really don't have a excuse for this one....
Luigi: You know......
Daisy: (Turns to Luigi) Hm?
Luigi: I...for one....(Starts Blushing while Smiling a Little) Adore your "Hot Stuff", dear.
Daisy: (Stares at Luigi for a Couple of Seconds Before Giving him a Seductive Smirk) Oho~ You do now, huh?~
Luigi: Yeah. (Starts Smirking a Little as Well) I always have~
Daisy: You know.....(Seductively Sat On Luigi's Lap) I wouldn't mind giving you that "Hot Stuff" right now if you like, my sweet, handsome Weegie~ (Ruffles the top of Luigi's Hair)
Luigi: (Chuckles Lightly) I would love that very much, my strong, beautiful princess-
Mario/Peach: NO SEXY TIME IN THE LIVING ROOM!!!!!!
Daisy: (Glares Back at Mario and Peach) Ah what?!!
Luigi: (Glares at Mario and Peach as Well) Ah come on, you guys!! Why can't you just-
Mario: (Giving Luigi a Hard Piercing Glare) Luigi........
Peach: (Giving Daisy a Hard Piercing Glare as Well) Daisy.........
Luigi: ('Sighs in Defeat') Okay.......
Daisy: (Sighs Loudly While Getting Off of Luigi's Lap) Fiiiiiiiiiine......(Resume Back to Snuggling with her Man) But we're still cuddling!!!
Luigi: Yeah!
Yoshi
Yoshi: (Starts Yelling in a Somewhat Gibberish Language on Screen)
Cloud: Does anyone has any idea what he's saying here?
Samus: Nope.
Fox: No clue.
Dedede: That would be a "no" for me, boy.
Daisy: (Noticed Yoshi Making his Way to the Front Door) Hey! Sweetie!
Yoshi: (Turns to Daisy) Yeah, mom?
Daisy: (Points at the TV) Do you have any idea what you were saying here?
Yoshi: (Turns to the TV and sees Himself Yelling and Grumbling in Literal Gibberish) Uhh....I guess it stands for "We'll beat you next time"? (Shrugged) I dunno.....
Daisy: Thanks, sweetie!
Yoshi: (Opens the Front Door and Walk Outside) You're welcome.
'Door Close'
Daisy: (Turns Back to Everyone Else in the Living Room) What do you guys think? Seems accurate enough?
Samus: (Shrugged) Eh. It'll do.
Donkey Kong
DK: (Begins to Whimper in Sadness and Fear as He Starts Running Away on Screen)
Tifa: (Immediately Starts Feeling Bad for Donkey Kong) Awwwww.... Poor DK......I wish I could give him a hug and tell him everything will be okay.....
Cloud: (Shrugged) Eh. I'm sure he'll be fine. He is Donkey Kong after all.
Tifa: True.....But I still can't help but feel a little bad.
Cloud: (Smiles a Little) You know, Tifa, this is what I love about you the most. (Kiss the top of Tifa's Forehead) You're always nice and caring towards other.
Tifa: (Smiles Softly as She Snuggle Onto Cloud) That's what I love about you too, Cloud~
Cloud: (Chuckle Lightly) Come on now. I'm not that nice.
Tifa: (Pouts at Cloud While Cuddling with Him) Don't try to deny it with me, mister. You are good boi and a sweetheart too!~
Cloud: (Sighs while Smiling a Little) Yeah, yeah. I know.
Diddy Kong
Diddy: (Happily Cartwheels on Screen)
Dedede: You know, I've been noticing something.....
Fox: (Raised an Eyebrow) Like what?
Dedede: Diddy's theme song. It sounds psychedelic.
Fox: (Starts Hearing Diddy Kong's Theme Song on Screen) Huh. You're right. I wonder why he chose that style music....I always thought he was more into hip-hop if anything.
Dedede: (Shrugged) Maybe he was trying to be psychic.
Fox: Maybe.....
Wario
Wario: (Holds a Bob-Omb on Screen....) I give up.....(Which Explodes on his Face)
'Silence'
Dedede: (Eyes and Mouth Open Widen in Complete Shock) Did....Did that boy just took a Bob-Omb to the face? Over just a soccer game?!
Samus: I know, right? The crazy thing about it is that their soccer game isn't even over yet.
Luigi: It's true......This all happened in the first half of the game.
Dedede: Man, WHAT THE FUCK-
Waluigi
Waluigi: (Does a Dance Alongside his Teammates on Screen) Wa-Lu-igi! Yeah, yeah, yeah!!!
Cloud: The hell kind of dance is that?
Peach: It's the "Waluigi Dance".
Samus: (Raised an Eyebrow) The Waluigi Dance?.....
Luigi: Yep. It was actually well known at the time.......it only lasted in a couple of weeks though.
Fox: Never thought I would see the day that Waluigi invented an actual dance craze before....
Peach: Well, in all fairness, some of us have seen him dance before. (Smiles Softly) I for think he's a decent dancer.
Waluigi: CHEESE! (Punches the Camera on Screen)
Dedede: Well, goddamn, Waluigi! Where the hell was all of that anger when you didn't get invited to the tournament?!
Palutena: (Shrugged) I guess some people don't have that same kind of energy anymore.
Everyone: (Nodded in Agreement) Yeah.
Bowser
Bowser: (Fiddling his Sharpen Claws Together while Laughing Evilly on Screen)
Tifa: I wonder where Bowser get those sharp claws from.....
Samus: He probably made them in scratch.
Tifa: ..........(Shrugged) Yeah. I can believe that.
Bayonetta: (Glares at the Screen) Oh sure. He has ALL the time in the world to sharpen his claws....(Immediately Gets Even More Angrier) But when it comes to cleaning his own fucking mess, he does nothing but lay down, sleep, and let Palutena and I do ALL THE DAMN WORK!!!-
Palutena: (Immediately Gives Bayonetta a Nice Shoulder Massage) Easy there, girl. Calm down. You get worked up way too easy when it comes to us and Bowser. (Kisses Bayonetta's Cheeks Lovingly) Feeling better?
Bayonetta: (Smiles Softly and Relaxingly While Blushing) Much better~ (Turns Around and Gives Palutena a Loving Kiss on the Lips) Thank you, darling~
Palutena: (Smiles Softly) Anytime, dear~
Bowser Jr.
Bowser Jr: (Starts Acting A Lot More Confident and Cool on Screen)
Peach: Awwwwwwwwwww~ He's so adorable when he has confidence in himself.
Mario: (Chuckles Lightly) Yeah. Must've got it from his father.
Samus: Or one of his siblings.
Peach: (Giggles Softly) Maybe.
Petey Piranha
Petey: (Starts Doing Limbo on Screen)
Palutena: You know..... Petey looks less scarier the more I see him like this.
Mario: (Smiles Brightly) That's right. We were able to convince him to have more fun and enjoy himself in sports games.
Petey: (Eats one of His Teammates Whole and Then Spits Him Out on Screen)
Mario: We couldn't stop him from eating people though.
Samus: Yeesh....
Reaction Over.....
Dedede: Man, Y'all are taking these sports into a whole new level of craziness
Fox: Yeah.....This might be the most insane one we've seen yet.
Peach: ('Sigh') Well, rest assured, this is definitely the last time we take any of these sports seriously. I think we've all finally grown past that phase by now.
Daisy: In other words: We're getting too old for this shit.
Luigi: Yep.
Cloud: Well I'm glad you guys are able to calm yourselves down in more sport titles. ('Scoffs') Could you imagine how things would be like if any of us acted like that?
Dedede: The town wouldn't live to see another day if we acted a fool like that.
Samus: Dark..... But pretty accurate assumption.

Mini Fanfic #584: Enter Bowsette! (Super Smash Bros Ultimate)
Ganondorf: Uhh.....
Hades: (Starts Smirking) Well, Well, Well~
Dark Samus: ....................
Mewtwo: ..........................
Ridley: (Eyes and Mouth Widened as He Starts Blushing at a Woman in a Black Dress.....Who Almost Resembles a Certain Princess) !!!......
????: (Chuckles Evilly While Doing a Fashion Pose) Surprised to see me like this, boys?~
Ridley: Uhh. (Immediately Got Up From his Seat) E-Excuse me! Gentleman, I uh....I had to uh....go outside to uhh....do stuff. (Sprints Away Towards the Mansion Door)
Ganondorf: I'm sorry, but...do we know you? Are you like..... another one of Peach's cousins or something?
????: What? No. Guys, it's me: Bowser.
Mewtwo: (Raised an Eyebrow While Crossing his Arms) If you really are Bowser, then tell me: How many children you have and what's their name?
Bowser(?): You're kidding, right? I have eight kids! Their names are Junior, Larry, Morton Jr., Wendy, Iggy, Roy, Lemmy, and Ludwig von Koopa!
Mewtwo: Hmm....I see....In that case, then tell me.... What is your thoughts on the Mushroom Kingdom's Hero, Mario and how a lot more often he has beaten you-
Bowser(?): ('Grrrrr') Fuck that Italian Plumber! Everytime I set my plans to action, he always had to fine some way around them! One of these days, I'm gonna rule that Mushroom Kingdom and beat stupid mustache loser...(Slams her (His) Fist on the Table) ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!
'Silence'
Mewtwo: ('Sigh') I believe that answers our question, gentlemen. She is really Bowser as a woman.
Bowser: Well, duh! That's what I've been telling you for the longest. Why didn't you believe me sooner?
Mewtwo: Simple. I just didn't believe that a woman, who looks exactly like the Princess of the Mushroom Kingdom, or any other woman in that matter, would ever come over here and directly tell us that is she is you.
Bowser: (Shrugged) Eh. Fair point.
Ganondorf: Sooooooo......Bowser.....You mind telling us why you turned yourself into a woman in the first place?.....Or better yet how?
Bowser: Well, to answer your second question, Ganon....(Proudly Points at the Crowd He/She is Wearing on His/Her Head) I was able to have this bad boy with me!
Mewtwo: A crowd?
Bowser: Oh it's not just any crowd. This right here is a Super Crown! It allows whoever wears, turn into a literal princess.
Ganondorf: Interesting......
Dark Samus: .......................
Hades: (Chuckles Lightly) It's sounds a bit more kinky if you ask me.
Mewtwo: (Turns to Hades in a Bit of Annoyance and Disgust) Keep your disturbing fantasies to yourself, Hades.
Hades: Hey now. No need to get all fussy with yours truly, Mewwy boy. Just speaking the truth is all.
Mewtwo: (Grits his Teeth While Balling his Fist Up with Dark Magic at the God of the Underworld) Never call me that again, swine. In case you already forgotten, the only one has the privilege to call me that alone is Zelda.....
Hades: Oho! (Gives an Angry Mewtwo a Smug Look on his Face) You don't say?
Ganondorf: Calm yourselves, boys. This isn't really the time for antagonizing each other.
Bowser: Yeah! I still got a lot to tell you about this bad boy!
Hades: Why, certainly. I'll stop as long as Mewwy here calm himself down.
Mewtwo: (Starts Growling at Hades)
Bowser: Mewtwo. Don't make me get Zelda up in here.
Mewtwo: (Sighs in Defeat Before Going Back to his Previous Posture) Fine.
Bowser: Good. Now, as I was trying to say.....(Starts Grinning Evilly) I can totally use this to my advantage of winning for once!
Ganondorf: Oh really? If so, then have you come up with a plan to use it yet?
Bowser: Well, you see, I....uhh....uhhhh....('Sigh') Okay, so maybe I haven't come up with an actual plan yet.....
Hades: (Rolled his Eyes) Big surprise....
Bowser: But know this, fellas!! Once I come up with one, not only will I finally beat that stupid plumber in own game, but me, my kids, and my subjects finally reign supreme, or my name now will not be QUEEN BOWSETT-
?????: Bowser!!
Bowser: (Turns Around to See Peach Glaring at Him/Her) Oh! Uhh. Peach! (Chuckles Awkwardly) Hey! How's it going?! I-I was just.....you know.... walking around.... Hanging out with the fellas and what not.
Peach: (Points at the Super Crown on Bowser's Head)
Bowser: O-Oh! You're uh... wondering why I got this silly looking crown on my head, huh? (Chuckles Awkwardly Some More) Funny story really. You see, I-
Peach: Gimme back the crown, Bowser.
Bowser: B-But-
Peach: (Shushed Bowser to Stop Talking) Give it to me...... Now.
With a groan of defeat, Bowser (or Bowsette) finally takes the Super Crown of his head, instantly turning him back to the King Koopa he always was.
Bowser: (Gives Peach the Super Crown Back) Here.
Peach: Honestly. How many times do I have to tell you not to steal this from me and try using it for your schemes?
Hades: Wait. (Starts Chuckling) You mean to tell me this isn't the first time Koopa boy over here try to steal that crown of yours?
Peach: ('Sigh') Unfortunately..... He's been trying to steal it from me non-stop ever since I first brought it here. It's already starting to get way out of hand.
Ganondorf: Now that you mentioned it, why did you have it here in the first place?
Peach: No real reason really. I just thought it look adorable. I didn't know it had that much power in it. But since a certain King Koopa....(Glares Back at Bowser) had to go and steal for the millionth time, I guess it's for the best to put it back from where it came from.... Wherever that is. Until then, I don't want any of you to try and lay a finger on this crown. Do understand me?
Ganondorf: (Shrugged) Eh. Sure.
Hades: Whatever you say, princess.
Mewtwo: I wasn't even interested in it to begin with.....
Dark Samus: (Simply Nodded) ..............................
Bowser: (Groans While Tapping his Claws on The Table and Looking Away)
Peach: Bowser..... (Pinches Bowser's Cheek) I want you to promise me!
Bowser: (Winches in Pain) Alright! Alright! Fine! I promise I won't mess with it anymore! You have my word!
Peach: (Sighs as She Finally Let Go of Bowser's Cheek) Good. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go out and buy another safe. Maybe some protective security to go with it..... (Walks Away While Calling Out For Someone) Mario!Will you go shopping with me please?!~
Bowser: Well...... That's another golden opportunity thrown out the window.
Ganondorf: I'm sure you'll think of another plan to claim victory soon enough. No need to rush with one now.
Bowser: ('Sigh') Whatever......
Ridley: (Rushes Back to the Table with Bouquet of Roses While Wearing a Tuxedo) I'm back, mila- Wait. Guys, where the woman with the black dress go? D-Did she already left home or something?
Bowser: (Whispers to Hades) You guys wanna tell me or should I?
Hades: Nah. Let's not anything. (Starts Smirking Evilly) I honestly wanna see how this stupidity plays out.
Ridley: Guys, seriously, where the fuck she is?!
