Mellow Yellow (a Trolls fanfic)

Summary: JD takes what he sees as the ‘necessary’ measure to keep Clay living up to his Fun Boy persona

A/N: Wanted to pump one more oneshot out before the year’s end! This one is in celebration of New Hair's Eve lol

__________________________________________

“Hold still, Clay!”

“Ow! But you’re hurting me, John Dory!”

John Dory dismissed his younger brother with a raspberry that he blew. “Pfft. How do you expect the color to stay if you don’t scrub-a-dub-dub it in? Huh?” To emphasize his point, JD really began to grind into Clay’s scalp with his fingers, working the product into the Troll’s head.

“That’s just it,” Clay groaned, “I don’t want it to. I don’t think this is even necessary!”

JD just continued what he was doing, bending his head some so that he could speak directly into Clay’s ear, loud and clear. “Clay, I’m gonna give you the best advice you can take and tell ya to follow the ‘don’t think’ part of what you just said. I, as I’m sure you can remember, am your leader. I’ll do all the thinkin’ for you. And besides, how much thinkin’ do you gotta do when you’re the Fun Guy? You just go out and have fun!”

Clay rolled his eyes. “Who put you in charge in the first place?” he grumbled in annoyance.

JD sighed, as if Clay should have known this already. “Bro, when you’re the oldest, the role automatically goes to you. And I’m doing a pretty good job at keepin’ us all in line, if I do say so myself.”

Ego much? Clay thought, almost disgusted at how highly his brother thought of himself. He didn’t say anything though. Whenever he, or any of the bros contraindicated him, they always found that whatever they had to say was usually in one ear and out the other, unless it was them flat-out agreeing with what John Dory said.

“Plus,” JD continued cockily, “I’m the smartest, too!”

Okay, so maybe joke-telling wasn’t supposed to be John Dory’s specialty, as he was not the assigned ‘Fun Boy’ of the group, but boy was that a good one. Clay cracked up, leaving JD baffled.

“Hey, what’s so funny?” he asked.

Clay chuckled a few more times, wiping a tear from his eye and fibbing. “Nothing, bro! I was, um… I just thought of this great joke. Yeah!” He grimaced a little, hoping John Dory wouldn’t ask what it was and, to his relief, he didn’t. He patted the younger Troll on the back.

“Ah-ha! Now, that’s what I’m talkin’ ‘bout! Embracing the role that you were born to take. That’s the spirit!”

Clay brushed him off. “Yeah, yeah, whatever, can you just finish up already?”

JD nodded enthusiastically. “Say no more, brother. I’ll have you fixed up in a jiffy!”

__________________________________________

Even though John Dory’s ‘jiffy’ took well over an hour, Clay still felt the same sense of freedom after being released from JD’s hold… and the same sense of dismay as he looked into the mirror.

“Ah, whaddya think?” JD prompted, nudging him with his elbow. “Pretty good, huh?”

Clay glanced at him. “I thought you said not to think.”

JD scoffed. “Just tell me.”

Clay reluctantly looked back in the mirror, tilting his head in scrutiny of his reflection. “I don’t know… I wish it was still green,” he finally admitted.

JD slung an arm around his brother. “Clay, yellow is a fun color. It totally works! And green is my signature color. We can’t have two of the same color in the band - we gotta have a rainbro! More appealing to the eye!”

Clay wasn’t fully convinced. He reached up, touching strands that were a fabricated lemony-yellow instead of his preferred natural lime-green. “I don’t know…” he said again.

“You’ll get used to it,” John Dory assured, not wanting to dwell on it any longer. He then turned from Clay and clapped his hands together once. “Alright! How’s our frosty-baby-blue coming along?”

Clay followed his older brother as they entered the next room over and found Spruce and Floyd with Branch.

“Just about done!” the purple-haired Troll said with a thumbs up.

“Just one more piece…” Floyd said, carefully plucking out the last of the foil out from the top of the baby’s head, and leaving their youngest bro with brilliant white tips and a bright smile to match.

John Dory whistled in delight. “Woooweee! That looks brodacious!”

Clay smiled down at his little bro. It really does look ‘brodacious,’ he could agree.

A lot more than MY hair does…

__________________________________________

A/N: I have 3 different theories for the change in Clay’s hair color. 1) He dyed it when he was older from yellow to green as a way to camouflage and also to cut ties with his old boyband self. 2) His hair naturally changed from yellow to green as he grew up. Or 3) He was forced to have his hair dyed from green to yellow per JD

Anyhow, Happy New Year 2024, folks! 🥳🎉👏

OH MY GOODNESS

What if teen!spider!reader was smarter than Miguel- like someone half his age is solving so many problems he couldn’t.

“Bro- you literally made a whole society but you calculated this as though it was a black hole and not a worm hole. How can you be this stupid?” And Miguel is just like 🧍‍♂️

Solving complex math equations and physics problems in minutes, creating multiple plans for missions and calculating the percentage of success for all of them.

But then they literally can’t hold a conversation (or eye contact) for the life of them- their social life is non-existent and they’re absolutely clueless when it comes to social cues (Miguel’s body language whenever he feels awkward when reader shows him how he messed up a problem or Hobie hinting at his not so big crush on reader) and like- the absolute awkwardness that happens when someone tries to compliment reader and they don’t know how to respond “it’s basic calculus, a kindergartner could do it”

Sorry if this is a ramble? I don’t know how to format these at all 😭

Intelligent but Socially Awkward Teen Spider!Reader

Don’t mind me doing a bunch of jumping around in this post, there’s just so much POTENTIAL with this spider!reader!!!

Hope you liked my thoughts on this

I LOVE THIS IDEA😍😍😍 I can already imagine Miguel sending them away the minute they start pointing out all of his mathematical mistakes lol

Teen!Reader is the epitome of ‘um actually☝️🤓’

I think this teen!reader is a product of ‘academic validation’, forced into a mind set where they need to be successful in all studies in school. Their parent(s) were probably extremely strict when it came to this, so it’s no surprise readers the way they are.

Of course despite this, being this blunt has its advantages. Like putting Miguel in his place! When reader had first join the society, they were for the most part quite reserved and quiet. They stuck to themselves while awkwardly maneuvering around social interactions.

So naturally , they were drawn to Miguel’s reclusive nature, which ultimately led to them growing more comfortable around him and those who worked close with him!

It all started with Miguel giving reader the task to go over some of his work to keep them occupied and away from him.

The faces reader would make while correcting all his errors definitely annoyed him. AND when they started pointing out all his other mistakes straight to his FACE. Mm mmm, all hell breaks loose for teen!reader.

OMG!! Imagine if this teen!reader was able to actually solve one of the most complex equations in his dimension, an equation that doesn’t even exist yet in their own world??

To say that they’re a mathematical genius is literally an understatement. They’re a MACHINE when it comes to physics and anything math related. Which is why they’re in charge, alongside Lyla, when creating and programming the spider society’s watches.

Even known as the genius behind the scene, reader cannot for the LIFE of them hold any conversations with the other spiders in the society💀

Compliments are disregarded because anyone can do it if they tried hard enough, reader claims. No, it’s not paranoia that’s making reader calculate the success rate of each past and future missions, they just enjoy doing it, they say in a monotone voice.

It’s honestly the only way Miguel’s able to get his revenge on reader for all the times they absolutely roasted the shit out of him.

Oh they want to finish this extremely complex math equation that they’re almost done with? Well too bad, they’re gonna have to finish it when they get back from that mission he assigned them.

Aw, are they creating a new quantum equation? That’s going to have to wait, Miguel’s sent them on a 5 person mission that’ll probably take a few hours to complete.

Are they hiding in the janitors closet with their math notebooks to avoid getting sent on their third mission of the week? Miguel’s already throwing them through the portal with Hobie.

They haven’t seen the light of day in hours, days even! Miguel claims they need to go out and socialize more instead of being a little goblin. (Super hypocritical reader mutters)

Missions are a complete pain because of the lack of communication happening on teen!readers end💔 and if that’s not the problem, than their extremely blunt and lack of social cues will be the end of them

They either don’t say enough or say just a little too much (a lot too much). It’s especially hard for them to find a balance😭

And I think that’s why Hobie would like them. They quite literally have no filter whatsoever, and yeah that may not be an amazing thing to not have, but he just enjoys the honesty of it in the end

He doesn’t take it to heart too when his advances go completely over readers head LMAO

This was such a fun thing to think about, pls send in more thoughts about this reader, they have so much potential to be a silly goober💔💔💔

Cute math class girl

Janis is absolutely obsessed with the girl that sits in front of her in math class. She’s pretty and she’s smart and she’s really nice, always helping Janis with the assignments and occasional slipping her the homework answers. “Pst Janis” you whispered as you turned around in your seat “yeah?” Janis whispered back “wanna be partners for the math game we’re doing” you asked “what math game?” Janis says confused “the one Ms. Norbury was just telling us about?” Janis had been too busy daydreaming about you and doodling in her notebook to even notice “oh um yeah sure I’d love to be your partner, uh like f- for the game” Janis said tripping over her words “cool” you said with a smile

The game started and your hand lightly brushed Janis’ when you went to grab the whiteboard marker. Janis felt like her hand was on fire in the best way and like her head was spinning. The game went by pretty smoothly with you and Janis getting second place “good job” you said offering Janis a hug. You’d never done something like that before usually it was a high five or a fist bump but a hug? Janis obviously accept the offer, you smelled really nice and you were warm and a good hugger, you squeezed a little but not too tight which Janis really liked. You slipped a piece of paper into her back pocket while you hugged, the paper had your number and socials and said *hey :) text me* the bell rang and you two went to you separate classes “bye Janis see you around” you said with a smile and a wave “bye y/n” Janis said with a dorky smile on her face

______

“No Kevin she’s actually really cool” you say elbowing your friend in the side “oh bro you def got a little crush on miss art freak” Kevin said teasing you a little “hey don’t call her that” you say, brows furrowed almost angry “yo chill I’m sorry what I said was not coolio my bad” he said putting his hands up in defense. Maybe he was right, maybe you did have a crush on the really pretty girl who sits behind you in your slightly boring math class

A/N: sorry this is like really short but I thought it was cute and wanted to post it maybe a pt. 2 but I’m writing so many things that I haven’t finished yet so bare with me. Also if there’s any specific fic of mine you want the next part of let me know so I can finish that first lol

Round 5 - Catholic Character Tournament

Propaganda below ⬇️

Hellboy Propaganda

He is literally the beast of the apocalypse. He was forcibly assigned catholic at birth, he deserves this. Now i know the rules said no demons, and that is fair. But here is my propaganda: he is a half-demon AND he absolutely does not want to end the world. He just wants to hang out and beat up monsters and work his job. But catholic guilt and apocalypse stuff always gets in the way. The comic books contain a ridiculous amount of religious imagery, the author was raised catholic, and passages from the bible are occasionally quoted. Hellboy is also portrayed as a messianic figure in conjunction with being an apocalyptic one. He uh, kind of becomes the savior of the new world and its like a whole thing. Catholic imagery appears frequently. Statues of the virgin mary, churches, etc. he also wears a literal cross on his belt, what can i say.

Okay here’s my rant. Hi, hello, propaganda. The last ten issues of the comic literally feature Hellboy going to hell and killing satan. He kills satan, fucks around in hell for a bit, and then blows everything up and its godamn tragic. Forcibly assigned catholic at birth. A bro did not ask for this it just happened. His mom was a witch but tried to become catholic after she died. Kind of a banger move. It didn’t work out for her but she gets points for trying. He tried real hard to save the world and it kind of worked but he did still die and go to hell. But not because he did anything bad, it was just kind of unavoidable. Again, he did blow the place the fuck up when he was done so. Respect.

Lapsed Catholic who is literally a half demon and also the rightful King of England that’s right he’s descended from King Arthur on his mother’s side.

Matt

Matt's faith in the show is really important and well explored; one of the first scenes of the show is Matt going to confession (or, well, talking to his priest since he's not really confessing at that point). Matt struggles a lot with what he's supposed to do; everyone's telling him to kill the villain and he kinda wants to, but he literally says: "I know my soul is damned if I take his life". He struggles with his faith and goes with his doubts to his priest, and it's beautiful—also when he finally gets a costume for his vigilanteing he chooses to dress as the devil, lol. (His priest tells him that nothing makes people run to Church faster than the feeling of having the devil on their heels.)

a lot of the show is about how he justifies his vigilante actions with his faith, and whether he's doing the right thing in trying to help people or just using it as an outlet for his anger. the literal first scene of the show has him in a confession booth talking to his priest (who is a really interesting character too). this is not the scene I was talking about but it's such an excellent scene with matt talking to his priest: https://youtu.be/XHZ3NbEIDdw

canonically catholic but dresses like a demon to be quirky

honestly i dont wanna type too much but i feel that matt is a great example of someone who battles with his faith because he rarely loses his faith but rather fights with why he was made the way he was and put through what he was. He believes himself to have the devil inside him but believes that God put him there

ok in the comics barring the most current run matt has Mostly been a non-practicing Catholic that very rarely actually does any catholic Activities but ends up falling back into the Mindset and very occasionally dramatically taking confession (ex. in that one issue where he takes confession, basically tells the father that he is uniquely terrible and is thinking about violently murdering someone and when the father says "you can be forgiven" hes like "AUGFH-- NO!!!!!!!!!!" and runs out) when he's gone through some shit. and i love that its so relatable

This guy so catholic he spends an ungodly amount of time just chilling in the church. And goes there whenever there is a moral conundrum about killing people being Bad even though it would solve a lot of problems and stop said people from killing other people. This happens every other episode. Matt is the Catholic Guilt Guy. There's actually a lot of catholic stuff in the show as a whole. Just a compilation would be like three whole episodes long.

Hes great hes catholic enough to not outrught murder people but not catholic enough to not fuck before marriage hes a bisexual disaster at all times hes besties with a priest might i add hes great hes my special little guy

his catholicism is a huge piece of his characterisation he was raised by nuns in a catholic orphanage, the first scene we ever see him (as an adult and not a flashback) is him going to confession, he is good friend with his priest and has regular debates with him, etc also in s3 he has a huge crisis of faith after he lost A Lot where he stops believing for a while and it's linked to his identity crisis where he actually wants to kill another person (a hard line he previously chose never to cross) and wants to be only daredevil and not matt murdock, when he is both and needs both to exist also when he was a kid his grandmother used to say "watch out for the murdock boys, they've got the devil in them" and it created a surprising lot of his issues

So he's both catholic in the comics and the show but he's More Catholic in the show. Like, raised in a catholic orphanage by nuns (ONE OF WHICH IS HIS *MOTHER*), second scene in the show has him in a confession box kind. Matt Murdock goes out and gets the shit beaten out of him nightly and also beats the shit out of other people and purposefully leaned into devil iconography as his theme. When his nurse friend says, he takes a lot of punishment without one complaint he says "That part's the Catholicism." It is a Core Aspect of his character (at least in the show). He makes me insane. Also the same chemicals that blinded him created the teenage mutant ninja turtles and everyone should know that.

They went to confession to a priest who they had saved as their costumed counterpart and the guy recognized them by the voice, proving that it's possible and everyone else is just dumb

he takes "i wanna fight god" to new and incredibly violent levels, while also being a sweetheart and a goofball

Actually strictly WILL NOT kill criminals. Goes wayyy out of his way to avoid it. Fights with the Punisher about it. Goes to confession booth after nightly vigilante excursions. Feels so much guilt. "How have you been holding up?" "Like a good Caltholic boy" "that bad huh" - actual conversation with his priest

So Daredevil struggles with his mission as a crime fighter because killing criminals goes against his faith. He makes it a point to not kill criminals, believing that even bad people deserve a second chance. This philosophy puts him at odds against The Punisher, who is a relentless killer. As a Catholic myself, while I love the concept of a morally conflicted superhero, I think the worldbuilding around Daredevil is lacking. If he struggles with violence and killing, why doesn't he pray to warrior saints like Saint Michael, Saint Ignatius of Loyola (a former knight), or Saint Joan of Arc? Why isn't there a community of other Catholics he can turn to for guidance, considering New York City has a sizeable population of Catholics? And why are the churches he goes to always empty? Doesn't he know that the Catholic Church supports the just war theory? I think that would have made his burden more bearable.

He goes to church and confesses to punching people and says "imma do it again can i apologize in advance" and the father dude says "no you're meant to stop now" and Matt says "no" and they do this everyday. I'm not remembering it properly but this is a canon interaction i swear

HELLO HI YES I LOVE HIM AND WILL INFOR DUMP ok so. he is a vigalantty and he got named daredevil and he is an orphan and after the age of 12 was raised in an orphanage at a Catholic church and his therapist is his priest via confession abd. also his mother is a nun he has a whole mental breakdown over god and called Job a pussy because he liked god until he got better and liked god again he said "I'm dearedrvil and not even god can stop that now" and he's so cool

matt is a freakish little babygirl who was raised by nuns and definitely has religious trauma. i hate him so much (affectionately)

he’s literally fucking insane about it i don’t know what to say here. he thinks he’s chosen by god to go on some sort of holy quest to save hell’s kitchen. joan of arc ass.

i already know hes in by default j just wanted to give him a personal shout out i love this angsty catholic dweeb

how practicing he is depends on the run, but in my favorite he is quite literally confessing to a member of the last extant order millitant who happens to be a priest at a church in hells kitchen.

i love him for having the funniest version of a trope i usually hate (person gets into confession booth and asks forgiveness not for what they've done, but for what they're about to do). usually this trope just looks silly to me bc like. the priest would just say "i can't do that" and you would have to either awkwardly explain yourself or just Leave. it's funny when matt does it because fr. lantom is probably like "what are you gonna do???" and matt's like "lol. lmao. 😊 hehehe." anyway we love this angry catholic man who dresses up like the devil to beat people up in hell's kitchen

64.media.tumblr.com

I'm sure Harrow is lovely and I respect the space lesbians but listen to me. Listen.

Matt Murdock is the Catholic character of all time, and if you make him lose, I am blowing up this website and everyone in it.

He is Catholic. His mother is a nun. He grew up in a catholic orphanage. Half the episodes in the show include him going to confession. When he needs therapy, he talks to his priest. He dresses up as a devil partly because of the Catholicism.

64.media.tumblr.com

One time he got godly powers on loan from Heimdall (see below), and he did a lot of good with it, and then the second it was over he just... well. Also see below!

64.media.tumblr.com

This man's every coping mechanism is Catholicism.

Please vote for Matt in the @catholic-character-tournament because he's the best and most realistic representation of what it means to be Catholic. Someone who's been punched and bet and crushed by life but still gets up every day to try. No, he's not a nun like his competition but he's not less devoted because of that. Not everyone is called to service. In the day he works at a defense lawyer to help people. Not for the money but to help people not get screwed over by the law. And at night, he dons a mask and beats up assholes when the law fails them. Is he perfect? No, that's the point. Matt is a broken man who is just trying his best to do well and live like Jesus.

He fully embodies the Catholic doctrine of faith and good works. He has faith in what he's doing even if others challenge him. He believes in forgiveness and repenting even when going up against "the devil."

64.media.tumblr.com

"The people you murder deserve another chance." ... "No, Frank. To try again, Frank. To try. And if you don't get that, there's something broken in you you can't fix, and you really are a nutjob." "You think God made you a one-man firing squad. But you're wrong. There is goodness in people, even in you. And you're gonna have to kill me, 'cause I'm never gonna stop coming for you, until I take you down."

Daredevil Season 2 Episode 3

He (tries) to love his enemy. He believes in Elektra and Frank and maybe Dex and their ability to change. To be good. And when he can't, Matt refuses to compromise on his morals. While not quite "turning his cheek" he never scoops to their level. Because they don't get to destroy who he is.

64.media.tumblr.com

Daredevil Season 3 Episode 13

All he does is for the love he has to his neighbors, his community. He loves New York. Not for self-fulfilling needs or for the money or for the fame. He does it because he believes in justice. Because the law was created by humans and is inherently sinful.

"But his competition met God and was disappointed and blah blah"

Daredevil is more grounded (at least the show, maybe less the comics). So now, Matt doesn't met God. But he sure gets mad at him. All of season 3 he angry at God for all the trauma he expired.

64.media.tumblr.com

"You see, that was me, Sister. I suffered willingly. I gave my, uh... sweat and blood and skin without complaint. Because I too believed I was God's soldier. ( chuckles ) Well, not anymore. I am what I do in the dark now. I bleed only for myself. ( scoffs )" ... "You might hate God right now, but the feeling is not mutual." "No, I don't hate him. I've just seen his true face, is all."

Season 3 episode 1

As a Catholic I don't really want to fight God in a parking lot. Well I do but not in the same way that I've understood (primarily Jewish people but probably other Abrahamic religions) want to fight God in a Denny's parking lot. I want to yell and scream and cry at God and for the feeling to not be mutual. For Him to never stop loving me. As long as I have faith, He will reach out his hand.

my osomatsu-san oc, Ai! :D

more details for her under the cut! :3

She's 5 ft 4 in (i hc the matsuno bros to be 5 ft 7 in, so shes 3 inches shorter than them ^^)

Her outfits come in different colors! Her shirt and socks can be either black or white, and her dress can be blue, red, purple, pink, yellow, green, or black! :) (also her shirt can be short sleeve or long sleeve, and her socks can be thigh high, knee high, or ankle high!)

Initially did not intend for her to have connections to the moon (part of her last name 'Tsuki' means moon, the bunny charm on her phone) but in the middle of making this ref i was like 'eh why not'

Dekapan is the one that created her, so hes kind of like her weird dad

She has a big crush on Ichimatsu, but to be honest she has a crush on all of the Matsuno bros hehe

She moved away from Akatsuka to go to college, but moved back to do some of her studying and assignments back home (also she was feeling very homesick)

A running gag is that her major changes each time she talks about it (in the beach episode she says her major is photography, in the super detergent episode she says her major is painting, continues ad nauseam)

Her favorite season is winter! (fall is second, spring is third, summer is fourth)

I'm mainly refering to her with she/her pronouns right now, but she also uses they/them and it/its!

Her relationships with the characters:

Osomatsu: He just loooves hanging out with her lolol whenever they all hang out in a group Osomatsu is the first to try and take a spot next to her. They're usually on the same wavelength, always able to connect with each other, but sometimes Ai can get pretty fed up with whatever antics he tries to pull. He always ends up getting nervous whenever they have one of their deep one-on-one talks.

Karamatsu: Ai loves his "painfulness", but she sometimes has her limits lol. Usually tries to help him write songs, and they like to sing together. They're both very supportive of each other, playing off of each other's energy.

Choromatsu: He tries to be so polite and formal in front of her despite knowing her since they were kids. Ai tries to get him to loosen up, and he's gotten a bit better at being himself in front of her.

Ichimatsu: They're in loooooove, they wanna kiiiiiiss~ ehehe, but besides that they both connect with the fact that they love their quiet time, and also cats. Ai is very understanding and patient, and that both comforts ichimatsu and freaks him the hell out.

Jyushimatsu: Ai cannot keep up with him, but she tries. At least he helps her stay active! They just both like making each other happy, whether that means going out to play baseball, or staying inside and doing some paper craft (with Ichimatsu's assistance)

Todomatsu: Besties :3 they message each other a lot, and Todomatsu is always lowkey asking her out to do things with him. Usually though, either just the two of them go out or Totty's older brothers end up tagging along. They mutually vent to each other sometimes just to let out some frustration, and they trust each other enough to keep secrets between them.

Totoko: Good friends, though they don't always see eye to eye. But thats mostly because of confusion on Ai's part at the antics Totoko tries to pull. She thinks its really cool that Totoko is an idol, and Totoko always insists that Ai could be one too, but they both dont want her to be one for different reasons (Totoko thinks that Ai would be more popular than her, and Ai doesn't like the idea of singing in front of big crowds)

Iyami: She thinks he's skeevy as hell, not much else to say. Always finds a way to get angry at him, even if he hasnt done anything wrong (at the moment)

Chibita: Also good friends, they both admire each other for what they do. She always leaves a big tip whenever she eats at his oden stand to show her appreciation (and to hopefully make up for the sextuplets' tab they have yet to pay)

Matsuyo and Matsuzo: They love her, don't know what their sons did to deserve such a nice friend who is also a girl (kind of). They simultaneously hope that she could maybe start dating one of their sons, and also think that she could do so much better lol Ai is always bringing them gifts and helps around the house, she almost gave them a heart attack when they came home to a squeaky clean kitchen after Ai and the sextuplets had made dinner together for them ^^

Dekapan and Dayon: Her creator and his weird maid/friend/lover? They're basically her weird estranged dads. They barely interact, except for rare moments when she needs emergency maintenance

#yeah! :D #very excited to make more art of her ^^#and more ososan art in general hehe #osomatsu san #osomatsu san oc #ososan #oc x canon

ok here's that Spider-Man AU I came up with:

University AU, but with a twist + the origin of the AU itself (aka, what inspired it, at the very bottom of the post)

Peter is the freshman newbie and they're not actually trying to cause trouble, they're just really enthusiastic and enjoying life to its fullest before they graduate at the tops of their classes and as the heads of their fields.

shirtless frat bro energy Mysterio who will probably go hand to hand with Spider-Man despite not having super powers himself. wrap his arm around Peter and give him actually good solid advice while Peter is trying not to gag over Beck's hairy pits.

what if they want Peter to join their fraternity family and they're genuinely good people, but they keep giving Peter a friendly fight on the university's school grounds every breakfast, lunch, and dinner. the way he gets in is if he defeats all of them.

he's done that and they consider him an honorary member even tho he keeps rejecting them and just wanting to stick to his small clique.

but over time he can't deny he does enjoy their eccentric personalities and their energetic personalities are contagious. He does go to them to get help with his homework tho for his various classes so he can try to impress his crush(es)

I think Otto would secretly enjoy theater and watch Beck do his performances and even aid him in practice.

everyone would cheer on and praise Otto for his crazed inventions and even the mad creation of the Actuators

Max being a party guy.. his hair is like.. frosted tips and spiked up with his own static electricity

I think Max would probably have given himself electric powers when he was younger cuz of a crazy stupid stunt he pulled that backfired, BUT HE SURVIVED!!

he uses the electrical abilities as his little.. party trick. always does something with it to try and impress the ladies lol he isn't allowed in the pools tho. obvious reasons.

he ended a party early once and learned the hard way why he shouldn't get into the water when others are present. (no one died thankfully!)

Otto has the patience of a SAINT when it comes to helping out Rhino with his homework so he can join them when they graduate. he cares for his homeboys, wants to see them succeed.

Mysterio is a jack of all trades. he is an art student to the bone, but he tries to party and wrestle and be more like a jock than he actually is. probably accidentally huffed some paint and drank the paint water once while delusional from pulling an all-nighter to finish his project/assignment on time.

Chameleon & Kraven are transfer students from Russia and they're both unbelievably pompous and eccentric.

chameleon being the guy you go to if you want the highest quality fake IDs. he makes them himself

Flint is also an art student, but he does those pottery things. he does it on the side and tries to keep up with the sports teams of the university instead, trying to keep up a tougher facade, but he just really likes making pottery and sculptures. finds them relaxing and will stay late to make them. people think he stayed up partying even tho they don't remember seeing him at any parties on campus. they just make the assumption and he always plays along. he submits his works to the school under a false name that the school is aware of and have agreed to in order to keep his privacy.

Rhino keeps the secret, having discovered him one night. stumbling upon Flint spinning some clay and while being a bit tipsy, he just sits and watches. completely transfixed by the actions and effort.

They become the BEST of friends.

and Rhino, being much bigger than the others, will gladly protect and back up Flint

Screwball brought her entire gaming and live-streaming setup to the dorm room. brings her phone to the lectures and records herself or the professors/teachers.

she's def part of the news section and records all the fights Peter has with the Sinister Six fraternity

Kingpin is the one in charge of it. he owns the university. the head professor or whatever heck they're called.

Norman being the 2nd in command of the university. Harry does NOT get special treatment from his dad. but Norman DOES see promise in Peter and tries to bribe and coax him with free good grades/marks and more. Peter keeps denying the old man.

man gives him the creeps and he'd rather earn his good rewards with his hard work. it's more satisfying that way.

plus, he has the whole sinister six fraternity helping him out with all sorts of things. so it's fiiiinnee. he doesn't need Norman's help.

I firmly believe that by the end of the story, when everyone is graduating, Peter is definitely good friends with the Sinister Six and is really gonna miss them once the graduation ceremony is over.

all of them are gonna miss him too tbh

Also, here's the origin of this AU:

1,15 and 30 :3

1: Do you relate to your favorite character(s)?

my favorite characters? not really lol, maybe I've subconsciously projected some of my traits onto uzbekistan and south korea??

with uzbekistan i think it's the enthusiasm as she introduces her siblings to others or tries to help people when they're in need(and then immediately goes back to her default scary face)! also. the way she freaks out over turkey is also something i've done several times in the past as i tried to convince my friends that no stop bringing him up ok!!! i don't feel anything!!

with south korea it's how loud and extroverted she can be(and how she constantly rizzes up her friends lol).

2: Assign Romania a traditional outfit

for a while I've absolutely loved the poofy, simple, yet elegant romanian women's folk clothing! so of course i took this chance to draw romania!

3: BroTP? Headcanons?

mmmm I constantly teeter between platonic and romantic for korhong, but inevitably...they're like bros to me. as for headcanons:

vape bros. they're the vape duo to me. idk about their favorite flavors lol

both of them are hype beasts to me. kings of streetwear. they probably have a shoe collection or something

korea will use his old age to his advantage whenever needed. "hong kong pls carry me its so hot here, please take care of your elder right now"

hong kong introduced korea to milk tea, and it's a treat they both make together and enjoy whenever one of them comes over.

yongsoo regularly goes to hong kong disneyland lol

back when goblin released in 2016 and the peak lapel coat hype reached an all time high, yongsoo gifted hong kong one. the problem with this is that he forgot hong kong's weather doesn't reach even 0 degrees in the coldest months.

i do also see turkmenistan and turkey as the Silly Oghuz Duo™.

turkmenistan will just loudly yell "WHITE MAN JUMPSCARE" whenever she catches russia on his 394653th summer trip to antalya. turkey just watches the whole thing go down.

turkmenistan is a big silver enthusiast and specialist, so on special events she'll gift turkey badges, ornaments, or rings made of silver, and in exchange he gifts her a heaping amount of turkish desserts.

turkey tries his best to get her to finally join the organization of turkic nations as a full fledged member instead of just an observer state.

🇹🇷: "will an interpretative dance get you to join"

🇹🇲: "how did you get in my kitchen"

#hetalia #tokki answers #ask game #aph romania #hws romania #aph south korea #hws south korea #im yong soo #aph korea #hws korea #aph hong kong #hws hong kong #aph turkmenistan #hws turkmenistan #aph turkey #hws turkey #sadik adnan #aph uzbekistan #hws uzbekistan

a n y w a y s currently 12 episodes into season 2 of the firefighter show so just some thoughts

you know, i stand corrected. i am liking what they're doing with shannon. so far. she's not demonized at all!! and the christmas thing got me, i'll admit it. i'm a sucker for that stuff.

wish the episode awful people hadn't gone for the whole dispatcher story and instead focused more on the actual awful people that make the job kind of miserable, like the drunk person who calls for help and then spits on you. (ik ik they did the evil racist guy but like they could have done more)

i did enjoy hen's origin although i think it was a ~little on the nose as far as racism and sexism within the job. like. trust me that job is rife with sexism but it's usually not quite so in your face. every single person would be written up several times over and most of these dudes do care about their job enough to not jeopardize it. also, evil caricature old captain was hilariously lowballing the 82k to train a ~woman~. bro salary + benefits + training has easily got to be double that at least. it costs a lot to hire and train someone new. for context, when my husband's department was short staffed it was short for a few years because the city was more than content with paying hundreds of thousands of dollars in overtime every year because it was cheaper than hiring new guys and paying salay + benefits + pension.

speaking of salary, benefits, and pension go to https://transparentcalifornia.com/ go to cities go to los angeles go to the year of your choosing type in and search within those records for firefighter. enjoy.

i do think the show continues its complete misconstruing of how the fire service chain of command works here with evil former captain (although i will admit, an old asshole with a terrible mustache and terrible opinions is realistic, so i'll allow it), once again the show seems to think a captain is the be all end all of decision making who apparently answers to no one. you see, unless the lafd does things extremely weirdly, there's a thing called staffing and numbers. you are assigned to specific trucks/engines/ambulances by the city. hell. by the fire chief in some departments. hell i'm pretty sure the fire chief of my husband's department called him once because they were trying to move around paramedics to ask if he had an opinion about being moved to a certain ambo they needed staffed (his opinion would be noted, but disregarded if necessary). if a captain left someone behind for no reason?? if you're assigned to a truck/engine/ambo you're going out with that truck/engine/ambo no exceptions. it's not like they show up for work and maybe they get taken out. if engine 7 is dispatched the people assigned to engine 7 are dispatched. it's not just 'hey, whoever's free, let's go'. like bro. chimney. talk to hr. i know you're a probie and the union can't help at this point but your captain also has people he reports to. the battalion chief would be very interested in this and everyone would probably think that evil captain getting his comeuppance would be hilarious as hell. there's no way that everyone who works under that captain isn't constantly shitting on what a dumbass he is and how he needs to retire.

speaking of chim's intro, i did like the episode but once again absolutely ridiculous about the whole they don't let him go out. also ridiculous the idea that they don't want to get to know him until they're sure he won't die?? lol wtf. like okay. firefighting is a dangerous job. but they have not done a lot of work improving it's safety over the years especially wrt fire management for these dudes to act like there's an epidemic of dying on the job. the US fire administration is crying. and obviously ik ik it worked with the whole kevin died on the job thing but it's still a little ridiculous.

anyways yea. actually. really the main issue with hen's, chimney's, and tbh even eddie's introductions is that not a single one of them brought donuts with them on their first day. that's how you make enemies of your coworkers from the get-go. they'll remember that.

if you're at all curious about firefighter fatalities, feel free to peruse https://apps.usfa.fema.gov/firefighter-fatalities/

lots of heart attacks.

also speaking of chim's intro episode, i must applaud it because it made me realize that the showrunners have no idea what the vehicle exhaust extraction system is aka what those yellow hoses are there for.

so the past few episodes i had noticed that the yellow hoses were just hanging there and i'm like. huh. why aren't those connected to the engines if the engine's in the bay, they connect those as they're driving the engine in. they should be. maybe it's just a one off.

but then. but then!! they showed a scene in chim's episode that had a firefighter holding the hose as if he just took it off so the engine could drive away and i'm like !!!! that is sooo hilariously wrong. because you see, that's an exhaust hose. and fire stations have those because the engines and trucks and whatnot run on diesel...and diesal exhaust is an occupational carcinogen and the fumes are very not good for you--especially if they're being emitted inside. so to avoid carbon monoxide in the bay what they do is vent the fumes out while the engine is running in the bay. the hose is connected to the exhaust pipe by a magnet and the hose vents outside and runs along an overhead track. when the engine is started in the bay the exhaust is safely vented outside and the hose is able to move with the engine until the engine leaves the station and you attach it back on when you enter the station.

youtube

i'm never going to not notice this. i'm going to be watching those things like a hawk now.

werewolf dude: anyways you’re my fated mate so now you gotta come live with me in this isolated community called a “pack”, i’m the alpha wolf uwu so everyone obeys me. i’m going to mark you so we can have a mating bond, you have to obey me too and give birth to pups uwu. also you’re not allowed to contact anyone outside of the pack.

darling: bro that’s literally so cringe wtf

No but for real I've literally sat and thought about how most of these werewolf traditions or weird pack behaviors would be absolutely bizarre and fucked up to an outsider, like either to a human or to a "long lost" wolf raised outside of any pack who got retrieved (which is another story idea I've had but, for another time maybe)

I'm just tickled of the idea of like, human/wayward wolf Reader encounters this small little town that turns out to house almost exclusively werewolves and it turns out the Alpha wants you as his mate/you're his fated mate from the Moon Goddess, and as you're beginning to learn more about their "traditions and culture" you are just sort of unapologetically freaked out

Alpha: and that's the quarters where the Omegas sleep once they're done tending to their work for the day and--

Reader: wait is that slavery. Oh shit that's slavery isnt it

Alpha: what?

Reader: you guys are assigning people specific roles in your society based off of their birth and you automatically make one class of people the servants below everyone else and a lot of people juat treat them like shit outright just because of rank? Bro that's a caste system, that's slavery, what the actual fuck, do you think that's normal?

Alpha: uh..... yes

Reader, shoving breadsticks into their purse: I have to go also I reject you as my mate + L + ratio + the wifi out here is shitty anyways

No but it really is a ticking time bomb before I write something completely original and I was kinda mentally tossing around ideas of what to do with that. It'd be fun to write some cheap little $3,$5 self published story of my own (I mean some of these audio books are straight trash and they still make money lol) but then I worry of the legality of like, does anyone actually hold claim on some of these ideas and I could get in trouble if I were to officially monetize it isk 😩 also don't a lot of more accessible "publishers" like Amazon just outright have clauses entitling them to your works. No thanks.

But yeah just imagine you're starting to really get along well with this guy and then you find out all the werewolf stuff and he's just shocked when you reject him because "I didn't even do anything" but you assert that the very way he thinks and was raised and his very community and environment is repulsive to you, and then well, he just forces you to stay anyways! I mean, YOU'RE the one who followed an Alpha straight onto his own pack grounds where he has full authority. There's not really anyone here who's going to help you escape, let alone disobey their leader.

how DO alternates get attached, anyway? what does it even do other than make you not wanna kill people?

wish i knew bro it would make shit so much easier on me

but fr. its hard 2 really give a concrete answer bcuz us alts see attachment as like. taboo basically. if gabe catches you getting attached to a human it uh. its not pretty. other than the torture you get for disobeying Him you get like... exiled almost, or... whats the word He used once?

excommunicated. yeah�� that one.

there have been studies on attachment though, i think the u.s... uh... well idr the exact name but it was some fancy shmancy government dept thats done a couple . havent read em though LOL

anyways. ig i can try to explain as best i can from my experience w attachment . n atlas can chime in if he wants too idk and uh . ill try to make it make sense (spoilers it probably still wont lmao). this isnt a definitive like... guide or anything im basically just posting general rambles abt what ive learned over my days lol

so. i think all alternates want to be loved, no matter how far down theyve buried that want. were conditioned from creation to think that gabriel is the only one who can love us, but He wont unless we follow His command to the letter. and what that translates to is killing humans senselessly . and not only that but like. us alts... we like violence. we want to kill. its integral to our beings. none of us can really be "nice" or "good" 24/7 and that uh ... tends to sound scary to the average person . so even if we did all collectively decide to turn against gabe and humans like... magically forgave us for killing and kidnapping thousands of people, its not like we could ever be "normal" members of society. its not like we could ever be loved. so no one really bothers trying.

anyways, from what i can tell, alternate attachment happens when that kinda barrier between humans and alts gets broken (at least from the alt's perspective), and it typically happens when an alt is in close proximity to its assigned victim for a long period of time. that time varies from alt to alt too, like it deffo took a lot longer for atlas to get attached to cesar than it did for me to get attached to mark. nd i could be wrong abt this but i also noticed like. the more a victim interacts w their alternate, even if theyre doing it in a threatened or scared way, the more likely it is for the alt to get attached. "taking an interest" in a specific human is the most telltale sign of attachment, to the point that the phrase is pretty much "slang" for it among alts .

also just to clear this up: while alternate attachment can be romantic, it absolutely doesnt have to be. not at all. id describe my attachment to mark as like. familial honestly. and sometimes there arent even human words to describe an alts attacemt. its a spectrum yk? so dont think any of this is inheritly romantic or some shit cuz ill beat you up

as for what it does. well .

you dont know when u first meet a human that youre gonna get attached. i certainly didnt . so u just kinda do ur thing n shit, but sometimes it doesnt work and the human lives so ur like. okay ill try again . or maybe youre just doing a long job and ur learning all of ur victims habits n shit. and thats where it kinda begins

the first thing you notice is that like. even though its ur job to kill your human its like. its fun to keep them alive . yk . you grow to like the sound of em screaming in terror , or them freezing up when they see you . whcih. yeah that sounds kinda fucked to you guys but . just bear w me okay .

anyways. eventually it gets to the point where, even if youve been given several opportunities to kill your human, you dont take them cuz its just that fun to mess w em. this is kinda where the "taking an interest" thing comes in too . and then THAT goes into "ok wait . do i rlly have to kill them eventually ?? i dont want to do that theyre funny :(((("

eventually you realize that like. shit . i dont want this human to die at all. like. at ALL. to the point you'd fight off other threats just to keep them safe. and you get this just- rush of an emotion youve never felt before whenever youre around them. aand you realize. thats love. you feel love towards them, no matter what kind of love that is. its. it feels so wrong at first and- and you hate it, but it just feels so right to the point where you cant imagine feeling any other way about them.

and as you may have guessed. you start to see the human as your own. its kinda hard to really describe but,, it makes sense if you experience it. you need to protect them and love them and hold them so so close or else they might get away from you. and you change yourself so that you can be worthy of being loved back. its. ough its a crazy ass feeling for sure

this, uh,, doesnt come without problems thouugh. for one just cuz an alternates attached to a human doesnt mean the human necessarily likes them back. in fact its honestly really lucky that both me and atlas got attached to humans that actually didnt hate us. (for a while at least.) theres a fuck ton of rumors that get spread around of those who got attached and excommunicated, only for the human they were attached to kill themself because they couldnt live with an alt constantly following them around and trying to talk to them.

...i cant describe how lucky i am that mark came back.

not to mention you hafta constantly live in fear all the damn time cuz you could get discovered n tortured at any moment. its. its really shit but damn it if your human doesnt make it all worth it. damn it if you wouldnt endure any kind of danger just to stick with them. damn it if you dont want to comfort them and feel murderous rage whenever theyre sad and.

damn it if they arent yours.

#oh shit i said way more than i thought i did. uh.

Animaniacs Reboot Season 3 Episode 2 Review

Check comments for the rest of the review since tumblr can’t post the whole thing.

Variable verse: Folding paper craneys! -Wakko

Yakko, Wakko, and Dot

They’re walking funny to me. Mint, strawberry, and chocolate flavor ice cream? I can see that.

Why do they all look like Dot? It would make sense they all like her but it seems like Gigi took her look? Gigi Soda is based off of Jojo Siwa. She’s cute. Her song was ok. Love how scared/disgusted the brothers looked. Lol

They didn’t have to do Dot dirty like that.

It’s sweet how Yakko is defending his sister. Then it gets useless since she smacks his head out of frame. What the hell, Dot? He’s defending you!

Yakko did his “uuuuuhhhhh.” The HBO Max joke was great. Too bad it won’t happen (pretty sure that’s confirmed).

I really don’t like the idea of them breaking and entering to steal an award. Now if they bargain for it or do a competition it’s fine. But this isn’t right.

Again, Wakko wouldn’t necessarily do this. He may have trouble reading the room, but he understood the assignment. Dot wouldn’t beat up her brother, either. And the fact that the bruises stay on for several more scenes makes it worse. What’s with the Warner abuse this episode? It gets worse this season trust me.

-_-

Check out her schedule. She has two days for sleep! Aw, dinner with her grandmother. Is that having lunch and dinner like actually eating or is it a luncheon and dinner with people?

I do like this message. Work and no play makes Gigi a dull girl. Not necessarily dull, but taking a break is healthy and is needed to de-stress.

“What’s the point in a lifetime achievement award if you have no life?” - Wakko

Best quote.

Lots of negative things in the first half. Like Gigi getting disgusted with the bugs and Wakko and Dot not liking their games. The scene with Wakko eating dirt has the table and chairs from the theme song as the background. I like the detail of Yakko facepalming when he sees Gigi drawing data charts. Nice detail with Gigi being left-handed because Jojo is. I love how Yakko says “lunch.” It gets better when she opens up. Probably shows her progression and immersion in the song. Did…did Ralph just die? Damn Dot…ouch. Was Wakko gonna say Hooters? It’s an actual place but did they stop because it sounds inappropriate or for copyright?

The song would’ve been so much better if it was completed. I’m so disappointed. It was funny when Nora interrupted (if it was anything else I was gonna say the song was trash) but I would’ve liked for her to do it afterwards.

That is very scary. Deciding on what age she is. I get the joke on kids staying the same age in shows; but in real life…

Good on Gigi for standing up for herself.

Good on Dot for apologizing but I agree with Gigi. She shouldn’t have done that in the first place. Also, the internet made her insane. Sub, like, and follow. It just abruptly ends.

Half of the plot where Dot steals the award was bad. As I’ve said before, she should’ve bargained for it. This isn’t a good message for kids. Now it seems like Gigi didn’t learn anything from them. And that stinks since the second half of the plot was good! Don’t worry about being an influencer or a job especially when you’re a kid. Just enjoy life and have fun. If the Warners went about it differently and the ending was more heart to heart it would’ve been such a good episode.

Starbox and Cindy

I actually really liked this one. I can’t remember season 1 but I think I like this one the best. They’re adding more characters so it’s not stagnant. Good! The ending was funny when Cindy just grabs him. Also, “she died.” Lol Woah Starbox went through a crisis until she brought her back to life.

What I do like is that you’re supposed to focus on the slapstick. Reminds me of the classic Warner Bros. Very good. The animation was nice! I do like these shorts. There’s no attachment like how E,P&TB was so it’s easier to enjoy it. Cute, funny, very good.

Pinky and The Brain

I like the idea. Based off Harry and Megan I think. The song was nice. Like the UK English and American English differences throughout the short. The fries and crisps joke was funny.

Brain keeps selling himself out. Was this from the OG? I know Pinky did it. Brain could’ve asked to be king instead of selling himself out. Or they could’ve had Charles come in and take it. That would’ve been funny. The Royal flush at the end was great.

Warners - 6

S&C - 8

P&TB - 8

Avg - 7.3

I think my disappointment was radiating when I made the rankings. I consider 8 a solid. I didn’t like the resolution in Pinky and The Brain, but the stuff throughout the episode made it great.

Sweetness and Light: Part Two

So this wound up being a lot longer than I thought it was going to be for the second chapter. WHOOPS lol. Bright side? It gives you guys a little bit to chew on while I write Part Three. Enjoy it lovelies!

Katie hits the ground running, and less than a week later she's in San Diego. Not even 20 minutes into settling in, she meets one of her classmates.

BobxFemale!OC. F/C: Kacey Rohl

Word count: 3.8K

WARNINGS: Colorful language; not beta-read (we die like men); minor editing

A/N: Fanboy is a car bro and listens to corresponding car bro trap music. Don't @ me. *smooch*

***

There have been only two instances in her life where Katie has been stressed to the point of snappishness. The first was when a seagull shit on her dress whites two hours before a change of command ceremony in Pensacola.

The other one happens as soon as she’s off the Truman at 1600. Needless to say, with all the running around and covering down she’s now being forced to do, she has no interest in going TAD anytime soon after this.

Still, Katie manages, and by 2300, her affairs are in order, and she has her garment bag, two suitcases, and a 24-pack of white Monsters loaded into her old black 4Runner, ready for the week of cross-country driving ahead of her. They’re not exactly the most ideal circumstances to be traveling under, but Katie isn’t going to complain too much. It’s been ages since she’s done a good cross-country road trip and she’d be lying if she said she wasn’t a little excited.

She sets out early the next morning, before the sun has yet to peek over the horizon, blazing a trail westward. She breezes through the bluegrass states, through the great wide prairie of the Midwest, winds through the mountain states. While time is of the essence for Katie, she does make it a point to stop for some sightseeing at Black Canyon of the Gunnison in Colorado and Zion National Park in Utah. Hiking is the one other great love in Katie’s life, and damned if she’s going to pass up even a little bit of time to do it while she’s making her way to the west coast. The peace and the freedom she gets from it are almost incomparable. To be out in the wilderness with nothing but her own strength and brains, beholden to the laws of nature… She’s almost sad when she has to leave.

Almost.

The sky calls to Katie, beckons. She has to fly.

Sunday rolls around - the final day of the road trip. The last leg of the drive is the worst. In her experience, it always is. It’s only eight and a half hours from Zion to North Island, hardly a long time compared to the previous stretches, but Katie is on her last can of white Monster and is rapidly growing sick of being on the road. She’s been on it too damn long, she’s exhausted, and all she wants to do for the foreseeable future is sleep.

And then she gets to North Island and suddenly, everything changes. All the exhaustion, all the soreness and numbness in her legs, all the long stretches of monotony - it’s all worth it to drive past the air hangars and see ‘FIGHTERTOWN U.S.A’ emblazoned above the bay doors. Tears damn-near well in Katie’s eyes. North Island is the culmination of everything she’s worked and busted her ass for, everything she’s struggled for, fought for, all wrapped up in one ruggedly glorious duty location, and she couldn’t be more elated and proud. She’s made it. The assignment, the dream of her wildest dreams, and she’s finally made it.

TOPGUN.

Every emotion-driven cell in Katie’s body screams at her to explore, absorb, take in the full and wonderful force of her new location, and god, she’d give anything to. However, the screams of her body and brain for rest are louder, and as annoying as they are, she’s feeling pretty damn inclined to acquiesce after several straight hours of driving.

Grumbling, she steers her way through base towards the Navy Lodge, her home for the next 13 weeks, and parks. Initial impression? It’s a nice place. It’s nice and big and white and clean-looking, with a Spanish-style terracotta roof and pretty flowers in even prettier planters. For basically being a budget hotel for service members, it’s a damn fancy-looking one. It makes Katie real curious to see what her actual accommodations are going to look like.

After taking a moment to slump in the driver’s seat and simply breathe, Katie slides out of the 4Runner with her wallet and a copy of her TAD orders in hand, and makes her way to the entrance to check in. With any luck, it shouldn’t be a long process. It may only be 1500, but the need for a (well-deserved) nap is growing stronger by the minute and it’s all she can think about, all she wants to think about, really.

Inside, it’s cool and quaintly decorated. Two people sit opposite each other on blue-patterned sofas with their suitcases beside them, and a mother wrangles a screaming three-year-old trying to escape his stroller. It’s hardly the picture of busy, but Katie has no interest in sticking around for too long.

Striding up to the front desk, she keeps her greeting short, sweet, and to the point. “Hi, I’m here to check in.”

The person behind the desk barely even looks up from the stack of paperwork they’re sorting through. “Do you have a copy of your spouse’s orders?”

Katie closes her eyes, takes a moment to breathe and compose herself. She gets it, she really does. Most females that come through the lodges are usually attached to another person who’s active duty; chances are she’s one of a hundred that have come through today with their husbands and families. It also doesn’t help that she’s dressed how she is. For chrissake, she’s wearing shorts and Birkenstocks and half her hair’s in a bun on the top of her head. She may not be a spouse, but fuck if she doesn’t look like one.

Any other day, any other point in time, she’d brush it off and get on with her life.

But right now, she’s tired. She’s real goddamn tired. And boy, does the snap assumption annoy the hell out of her.

She places the copy of her orders on the desk and pushes them towards the desk clerk. “They’re my orders, actually,” she replies quietly, tersely. “I’m here on TAD.”

Of course, now the desk clerk looks up from what they’re doing. Needless to say, when they see the unimpressed look on Katie’s face, there’s all kinds of sputtering and apologizing and mad-dashing, and it almost makes up for the previous behavior. Honestly, she really doesn’t give a shit about the apologizing. She just wants her room key and access to a bed.

Thankfully, she receives it a moment later with a final “My deepest apologies, ma’am,” and that’s that. Katie responds with a sigh and a half-hearted wave of her hand, then grabs her orders and heads back outside to grab her stuff. She doesn’t want to waste anymore time.

The universe, however, seems to have something slightly different in mind for her.

She’s making her way back through the parking lot to the 4Runner when she catches the eye of someone walking by, a tall someone with black hair buzzed close to his head, olive-tone skin, and sharp features. His eyes lock on Katie for one, two seconds - and he snorts in amusement.

He smirks. “TOPGUN?” he asks.

Maybe it’s because she’s been on the road for the last eight hours, or maybe it’s because she’s now crashing from the caffeine she’s been mainlining. Whatever the cause may be, it’s got Katie confused. Christ, she really needs to sleep. “How did you…”

She follows the stranger’s gaze downwards, comes face-to-face with “My other car is a fighter jet” printed across her t-shirt - and closes her eyes with a sheepish grin. “Wow,” she says, “dead giveaway, huh?”

“Maybe a little bit.” The stranger holds a hand out. “I’m Garcia - uh, Mickey. Call me Fanboy.”

Well, he doesn’t present as overly cocky or too big for his britches, and he’s not making snap assumptions about her like the desk clerk did. Katie likes this guy already.

She takes his hand in hers, gives it a firm shake. “Sand Trap. Garland or Katie when we’re not in the schoolhouse. Good to meet you.”

“Likewise.” His eyes rove casually - if not awkwardly - across the half-empty lot. “You just get here?”

“Yeah, ‘bout twenty minutes ago. I’d go out and explore a little bit before tomorrow, but honestly all I wanna do right now is pass out.”

“Long flight?”

Katie snorts. “Long drive. REALLY long drive.”

“Yeah?”

“Oh yeah.” She starts walking in the direction of her 4Runner, deliberately slow, giving ‘Fanboy’ time to decide if he wants to follow and continue the conversation, and smiles to herself when he matches his steps with hers. “Where you from, Fanboy?”

“Uh, Oceana. VFA-143.”

Well how about that, he’s a Pukin’ Dog. This conversation keeps getting better and better.

“143, huh? No shit. I’m from 3-4.

“Ain’t that Blue Blasters?”

“Sure is.”

“Hot damn. Well, howdy neighbor.”

“Howdy howdy. Probably saw each other in passing a few times and never even knew it,” Katie says with a smirk.

They’ve come to a stop behind the 4Runner at this point. While Katie is pulling her key ring out of her shorts back pocket and fiddling with the button fob, Fanboy is looking over the vehicle, brows knitting together into a ‘V’ that deepens by the second. She can practically hear the wheels turning in his head, can hear the realizations dawning on him. And the second they do… Oh boy, does his jaw drop.

“Hold up, you drove all the way here from Virginia?”

“Took the whole week off to do it,” she replies with a smile.

Fanboy lets out a whistle, long, low, and slow. “Damn, girl. I love driving my car but I wouldn’t even do that.”

“You should sometime,” Katie says as she hauls out her folded garment bag from the trunk area. “It sucks being in transit that long but it’s worth it to see Americana.”

“I’m pretty sure my Z would cry being on the road that long, but I’ll take your word for it.” Fanboy pauses, makes a face, as if contemplating what his next step in the conversation should be. “You want a hand bringing your stuff up?”

“Oh no, I’m-”

“Nah, you know what? Forget I asked. Lemme give you a hand.” He reaches in, curls his hand around the handle of one suitcase, yanks it out with ease, repeats with the other one. “Where’s it going?”

“Uh, third floor, room 317. Seriously though, you don’t have to do that-”

Any attempt Katie makes to sneak her suitcases out of Fanboy’s grasp ends with him waving her hands away and shaking his head. “Girl, you just got done driving from Virginia. You deserve a break. Ain’t no trouble for me, promise.”

“If you say so…” She’s not going to complain about someone insisting on humping her baggage. (Granted, she’s not really being given much of a choice in the matter, but she’s still not going to complain.)

They make their way through the parking lot and into the hotel, riding an elevator up to the third floor and moving through the halls to her room. When she gets the door open, Katie’s surprised - if not a little shocked - at how nice the room is. While it’s not the Ritz, she does have a little kitchen and a living room attached to her bedroom, and they’re both pretty tastefully appointed. The best part, though, is the view. Somehow, she’s managed to score a prime view of the beach and the Pacific. She’s only ever had the Navy Lodge out in Dam Neck as a reference, and Christ, does this place blow that out of the water. If she didn’t know any better, she’d say she was living out of a 4-star hotel for the next three months.

The effect isn’t lost on Fanboy, either. “Damn,” he whistles, “they gave you one of the nice rooms. Mine looks out at the fucking parking lot.”

“Yeah, this definitely doesn’t suck.”

A yawn bubbles in the back of Katie’s throat, a yawn that she tries - and fails - to suppress. It’s the only real warning that her body’s given her, and likely to be the only one she gets before it straight-up knocks her out for some sleep.

She heaves a sigh, swipes a hand over her eyes. “So, uh, I gotta get some sleep or I’m pretty much gonna die here,” she says with a weak chuckle.

“Yeah, yeah, for sure. Uh, you wanna swap numbers? I’m laying low for now but I’ll probably head out for food later. Can text me and lemme know if you wanna come along.”

“Yeah, that sounds great, actually. Here.”

Katie passes her phone to Fanboy, who plugs in his contact info with a few strokes on the keyboard, then passes it back to her with a smile. “Rack out for a bit. You look like you need it.”

Katie rolls her eyes, but returns the smile. “Thanks for helping me with my stuff.”

“No prob. I’ll catch you later.”

Then, Fanboy is gone, loping off to parts unknown, and Katie is all by herself once again.

She can’t help but smile as she closes her door shut. For having only interacted with him the one time, he seems like a really decent guy, which, considering his profession as an aviator, is fascinating to her. Katie’s friends are few and far between, and friends that happen to be aviators are even fewer and farther between. She’s only ever really known them to be full of themselves and… well, assholes. She may be one of them, but they’re not exactly the type of people she likes to associate herself with, if she can help it.

This guy, though? He’s different. If he winds up being her only friend while she’s at TOPGUN, she’ll be okay with that.

Maybe she will take him up on the food offer later.

Only after she gets her rest, though.

Kicking off her sandals, Katie trudges over to her bed and falls into it face-first with a groan, relishing in the feel of the bedspread beneath her and the sink of the mattress. God, she’s never been so happy to sleep in something that isn’t her own bed. Even better that it’s right next to the ocean, she thinks with a sigh. That’s gonna sound so nice…

It’s been so long since she’s been here, the west coast. Years, she thinks. Years since she’s been home. It’s a fact that she tries not to think about too much, but at times like this, the thought seems prone to popping up.

Katie sighs, opens her eyes. There’s one more thing she has to do before she can sleep.

She rolls over, grabs her phone from the nightstand, and opens her texts. Her fingers fly across the keyboard. “Hey Naomi, guess who’s got two thumbs and temporary orders to San Diego?”

It’s barely been a minute before the phone is buzzing with a reply from Katie’s younger sister, one that’s chock-full of caps lock and multiple punctuation points.

“OMG YOU’RE HERE?!?!?!” the phone seems to practically scream. “HOW LONG ARE YOU HERE FOR I HAVE TO SEE YOU!!!!”

“Not Portland here, I’m down in Cali. And I’m here for 13 weeks.”

“I DON’T CARE YOU’RE SO CLOSE AHHHH!!!!”

“Easy kid, don’t hurt yourself lol. I don’t know what my schedule’s gonna be like but I’m pretty sure we get weekends off. Might be able to figure something out and have you come hang out with me for a little bit.”

“PLEEEEEEASE I WOULD LOVE THAT!!!!”

Katie has half a mind to leave it at that and to go to sleep. After all, her sister knows she’s on the same coast as her, and that’s all that matters. At least, that’s all that should matter.

Unfortunately for Katie, there’s more that needs to be said.

“Hey Naomi,” she types, “do me a favor and don’t tell Carrie I’m here.”

Naomi’s response bubble lingers for one, two, three seconds. She’s hesitating; Katie can tell.

“Are u still not talking to mom?”

The response is immediate. “Nope.”

“Okay then I won’t.”

“Thank you.” A pause. “I gotta go now. I haven’t slept in ages and I’m exhausted. I love you.”

“I LOVE U” flashes across Katie’s phone screen a second later, alongside several heart emojis. It’s the last thing she sees, smiles at before tossing the phone back on the nightstand and sprawling on the bed, releasing a deep exhale as she closes her eyes. This is about to be the best goddamn nap she’s ever taken.

And sure enough, within seconds, it is.

***

It’s just past 1800 when Katie reawakens, feeling a good deal more rested after 3 hours of dreamless, motionless sleep. Hell, she feels like a new person after that nap. She knows she’s going to need more sleep in the next few hours (after spending most of the day on the road, she’s got a lot of it to catch up on) but for now, she feels refreshed, rejuvenated.

She also feels hungry. Really hungry.

With a groan, she rolls over and grabs her phone, pulls up Fanboy’s contact info to text him. With any luck, he should still be around and - hopefully - still up for getting something to eat.

“Hey, it’s Sand Trap,” she types. “I just woke up. You still planning on getting food or did I miss that already?”

A response comes through five minutes later, when Katie’s in the bathroom splashing water on her face, trying to wash away the sleep that lingers in the corners of her eyes. “Yea,” he says, “was actually just thinking about that lol. Meet in the lobby in 5?”

“Works for me. Where we going?”

“Idk, I was just gonna find someplace in Gaslamp. You cool with that?”

“Yeah that works.”

“Cool. Imma drive.”

Katie, while she’s sure Fanboy means nothing shitty or snarky by it, can’t help but quirk an eyebrow at the comment. Barely known each other for three hours and he’s already calling the shots on who’s driving? Hell.

“Damn, you haven’t even been in the car when I’m driving. Ouch lol.”

“No no I’m not trying to be a dick or anything. I’m just saying I’m driving because you did a lot of it. I’m giving you a break lol.”

“Fair enough. Be downstairs in 5.”

“Sounds good.”

Yeah - Katie can already tell that this is going to be an easy friendship.

She grabs her wallet, slips on her Birkenstocks, and trots off down the hall, trying to ignore the rumbling of her stomach as she steps onto the elevator and heads down to the lobby. It’s definitely good timing that she woke up when she did; it’s been hours since she last ate and ‘hungry’ doesn’t do quite enough justice for how she’s really feeling.

Downstairs, she finds Fanboy casually leaning up against a column, keys in one hand and phone in the other. Beside him stands a guy a good head and a half shorter than him, with cropped reddish-blond hair and hard features, a guy who Fanboy introduces to Katie as both ‘Kozer’ and his callsign ‘Halfpint’ on their way out to the parking lot. As it turns out, Halfpint and Fanboy are a duo pair, with Halfpint taking the front seat while Fanboy is left in charge of their jet’s laser eye. How about that, Katie muses. So he’s a WSO. No wonder he comes off as relaxed and easygoing and not cocky.

Kozer, on the other hand, while pleasant(ish) enough, is sarcastic and rough around the edges. He makes as much clear with his comments about Fanboy “hanging out and scamming free rides” off of him anytime he’s being sent out on a hop.

“Hey, you be nice to your Wizzo,” Katie chides him as they climb into Fanboy’s nondescript rental. “He’s got your back when you guys are flying. Christ knows I’ve had my ass saved a few times by someone else’s backseater.”

“See Kozer? At least someone loves me.”

“Oh fuck off.”

The three make their way off-base and into the Gaslamp district of downtown San Diego, cruising down the lamp-lit streets to the tune of Fanboy’s phonk and Deftones-heavy playlist. Eventually, they settle on Mexican food at a taqueria - nothing major, but holy mother of god is it some of the best food Katie’s eaten in the last week, if not her whole life. She’s unable to help the groan of utter ecstasy that escapes her when she bites into her first of three tacos loaded with carne asada, chopped onion, and cilantro. It’s heaven, pure fucking heaven, and she tells Fanboy and Halfpint as much. Do Halfpint and Fanboy all but cackle at Katie? Sure. Does she really care though?

Not at all.

“Jesus,” Halfpint groans, “have you never had a taco before?”

“Not after a week of boomer juice and Subway,” Katie retorts around a mouthful of her dinner. As far as she’s concerned, this stuff might as well be the holy grail of good food.

“Hell of a way to end a road trip,” Fanboy mumbles mid-burrito.

“Yeah, tell me about it. I could definitely die happy after this.”

They spend the rest of their dinner snarking and shooting the shit, discussing everything from where they come from to their thoughts on what’s going to happen in the next 13 weeks.

What will happen, indeed, Katie thinks. It’s 13 weeks of America’s best and gutsiest duking it out in the clouds and contrails, learning how to evade and fight, how to dominate. Tensions and emotions are bound to run high. In a school like this, it’s inevitable. There’s only one word to describe how things are going to get in their time here in Fightertown: intense.

And don’t they all know it.

It’s closing in on 2000 when they finally wrap up their meal and head back to base, sated after 2 hours of incredible local food and good conversation. Were they anyone else on any other given day, they would probably be cruising around, looking for something exciting and alcohol-based to occupy another 2 hours of their evening.

But they’re not. They’re fighter pilots, flight officers, doom bringers and dead-eyes here to hone their craft, and nothing more. Classroom instruction may not begin until tomorrow morning, but they’re already being watched, felt out, sized up. They don’t have time to be like the other guys.

Katie parts ways with Fanboy and Halfpint in the Navy Lodge with little more than a wave and a “see you in the morning”. She herself is feeling tired again and is all too happy to welcome sleep into her life again. With what they have coming up, she’s going to need all the rest she can get.

In the solitude of her room, she changes into an oversized University of Oregon t-shirt, steps out of her shorts, and rolls into the safety and comfort of her bed with a long sigh. She’s knocked out within the minute.

Getting here was the easy part. The real work begins tomorrow.

And god dammit, Katie will be ready for it.

UAAHWBABSNENSBFNSNGBDNDBFMSDBRB FUCK OKAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

might throw up forever trying to formulate this in a. coherent way but I'LL TRY !!!!!!!!!!

ok uhehdhrjtkg i currently have 7 named ocs, those being ruby, java, python, swift, c+, vysel, and requiem. yes ik the first five are named after programming languages it doesn't mean anything though HEJSBRJSJFJDKGNG uh. i will try to be brief with them because i could honestly sit here forever talking about them and i actually wanna answer this ask so. L

uuhhshdhdhb first up is ruby!!!! she's like. the main character. along with java :3 she's very very sweet and makes friends w pretty much anyone (in fact 2 of her 3 best friends at the moment are people she literally found on the street and was like you. me. friends. NOW) she cares so much and she has so much compassion but she wears her heart out on her sleeve all the time and she. I LOVE HER SO MUCH SHE'S EVERYTHING TO MEEEEEEEE

and w her is java !! java's like. the co-main character and she's very lowkey, esp next to ruby LOL she's also ever so slightly bitchy and blunt sometimes but i promise it's the autism and the Troubled Childhood you gotta believe me . she is also very gay for women and is absolutely pining over ruby <333333 (they get together by the end though so it's okay LOVE WINS 🎉🎉🎉)

uhhhhhh next is python and he's an asshole forever . but real talk it's the assigned funnyman of the group but in the condescending n annoying way but IT'S A FACADE he actually cares so much about its friends forever and can be mature and wise when he needs to but it BURIES its FEELINGS in SARCASM!!!!!!!! (and maybe violence) also he's 8'3" cuz suprise it was a god at one point who forfeited its god powers to be a human . that's also why his eyes n teeth r bright yellow and he has strange markings everywhere lol oops

and next is swift !!!!!! sky's the dogsitter of the entire universe good for them LMAO she's still a god and used to be work partners/best friends w python before he fucking Left but let's not worry about that <333333 anyways she's very calm and elegant and they always put the interests of others before skyself whcih . uh . can be a good or bad trait depending on how you look at it but sky's trying SO HARD leave them alone . also they like to be alone a lot and they would play the flute and read books if skies role in the universe allowed them to have Hobbies

next is c+!! that's not his actual name i promise it's a nickname because he doesn't like ppl knowing his actual name . he's definitely the least plot relevant of the seven but he's still so silly 2 me <3 he's that character trope of a guy who's somehow done Everything and worked Every Job Ever but can't hold down any of them so he just pulls random anecdotes about his internship at NASA out his ass and no one believes him (least of all his good buddy java) but he also has a lot going on under the surface . which is preddy neat :3c

then there's vysel. i hate him so much. blond hair blue eyes son of a bitch . he's a former swing turned alt rock artist who got popular for being hot and shippable i guess . also he's a reanimated corpse piloted by evil spirits but shhhh no one knows that (though it would probably add to his sex appeal if ppl did know . so.) he's like the biggest bitch forever and ever he is very celebritycore mentally i'm ripping him apart with my teeth . he uses his visual illusion powers TO GIVE HIMSELF BLOND HAIR BLUE EYES WHAT IS WRONG WITH HIM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

uhhh and then finally requiem !!!!!! they're very socially closed off and hates talking to like. Anyone and Everyone. including their parents i mean what . they wear fucking only black and white clothing and their hair is Also black and white and it's like bro get a better wardrobe got DAMN!!!!!!!@!@@!@@!! they don't really become relevant until the "second season" because i like to think of my own story as like. a tv show . because i'm just like that but when they do they become VERY important cuz they're kinda the whole reason ruby and java were involved in this story . the narrative plagues their being with every second that they breathe. they will never be free.

UHHH YAH THAT'S MAINLY PERSONALITY WISE because if i sat talking about their roles in the story or their relationships with each other past the surface level or god forbid their backstories i'd be here for 8 billion years so. YIPPEE ^_^

#ruby #java #python #swift #c+#vysel #requiem #i care about them SO MUCH. BONK YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH THEY MEAN TO ME FOREVER AND EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#GRAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH #also sorry i had to. break for setting the table and eating dinner. THE MISERY !!!#i hope ur still awake LMFAO
