❤ Yandere Lawyer ❤
Tumblr media
▶ This is a yandere/dark work and it may contain triggering content so please READ THE WARNINGS before. Do not read if minor.

Female reader
WARNINGS: Obsession; Misogyny; slight Power Abuse.
This idea credit goes to @d-lioncourt cause she's the one that motivated me for this idea. Hope you like this :)
--
◾ Yandere! Lawyer who works in the top law firm of the country. He’s cold, determinate and calculative. Always thinking 10 steps ahead of everyone, carefully considering all possibilities and creating extensive back-up plans. 
His job relies on his capacities and he always aims for the top. If he’s not recognized as the best lawyer available, then he doesn’t even know what he’s been doing so far. 
◾ Yandere! Lawyer who doesn't care about how things are done as long as he wins the case in the end. Who said lawyers are saints?
He may be an advocate of the law but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t bend it to his will, finding sneaky gaps to reach his goal: win. 
Isn’t that what makes him such a requested lawyer? Isn’t that what causes every big corporate company to try to sign him up, to offer several millions for him to represent them in court? Because everyone knows that he wins.
No matter what happens during the trials or how badly the opposite side tries, he wins. It’s an irrefutable truth and anyone that tries to contradict it is a complete and utter fool. 
◾ Yandere! Lawyer who is upset enough when he’s informed that he’s gonna have to take a Pro Bono case for a random civilian. It’s frustrating to spend his precious time and expensive resources on a worthless someone.
It’s stupid and he'd immediately refuse it if it wasn’t for the strict order he receives from the higher ups.  
◾ Yandere! Lawyer who rattles you up, insisting on long sessions so he can know your side of the story.
His questions feel like accusations and you hate spending long hours answering him. Makes you feel like you’ve actually committed a crime of sorts when the reality is none of that. 
He knows you’re bothered by the way he pays attention to each of your words, taking mental notes of every minuscule detail so he can bring it up later.
He’s highly aware of how unnerving he can get and it’s fun to see you get so quiet and shy over it. 
He loves it when people get intimidated by him and it’s particularly pleasant when a pretty thing like yourself gets too timid to spare him a few words. 
◾ Yandere! Lawyer who drags the case much longer than it needs to. He could definitely end it in a blink of eyes, it would be so easy for him. A piece of cake. 
But he doesn’t. 
It’s exciting to see you on court, a helpless expression covering your whole face and your eyes at the verge of tears as your future lays on his hands.  
So pathetically weak. You can’t even defend yourself, you need him to do that for you. To defend your honor, to protect you. 
◾ Yandere! Lawyer who makes sure you know that despite it being a Pro Bono case, you owe him. He wants you to know that he’s winning this case for you, wasting his valuable time just to save your pathetic ass from those embezzlement charges. 
That he’s the one saving you from going to prison - despite the very evident fact that you have such a weak personality that it’s practically impossible that you’d steal money from your boss. 
◾ Yandere! Lawyer who takes every chance to hurt your feelings with snide remarks.
You look prettier when you cry, something so enticing about those shiny diamond-like tears that glow in your eyes and the miserable way you furiously blink to keep them at bay - to which you fail. 
You’re crying because of him. That’s enough to make him buzz with a twisted sense of possession and control. He holds that much power over you. 
◾ Yandere! Lawyer whose mind wanders over the tempting fantasies of returning home to you. You’d do a submissive girlfriend, he’s so sure of that. If he gave you a nasty slap and a few harsh words, you’d bend to his will so fast - like a obedient girlfriend should. 
It would be so easy to control your life.
Order you to move in with him. Command you to become his stay-at-home girlfriend. Push you to cut off friends and family until only he remains. 
Those misogynistic ideas keep him thinking about you longer than he should. 
◾ Yandere! Lawyer who isn’t afraid to act upon his wishes and so he does. After a triumphing win on court, he leaves.
Storms off without even looking at you and you don’t even have the chance to thank him, but you forget about that quickly. 
You have more pressing issues to focus on, such as rebuilding your life all again. Celebrate your win. Find a new job. Move on with your life the best as you can. 
Your peace lasts exactly one week. And then everything comes down in rubbles.
Because then he comes to retrieve his payment.

HIIIIOOOOO ;_^_;
I’m on my period dreaming abt Jaykeeeeeee as the number 1 Jaykeeee whore I thought I’d let you know I can’t stop picturing Jayke so obsessed with their girl they even eat her out on her period ;O
Don’t hate meeeee oymygod I love you smmmmmm ;’~D heartttuuuu<333333!!!!!
oomf all you had to do was say "saltburn jayke" but you rly went full out cotton candy slut mode with this but okay ily i guess
warnings: period munching, if you can't deal with blood don't read this bc it's a mess but they like it so............
It's a thing.
These days anyway. Then again, you probably shouldn't be surprised considering you've managed to bag two boyfriends who love you to the end of the earth and back.
It's the fact that they don't even compete. They actually contrast each other, where one may be too tired and the other is full of energy. Or one rough, the other too soft to lay a hand on you in a way that might sting.
It's kind of nice.
Especially during your period.
For months, every month, they try to encourage you. They're not grossed out. They're just your happy, pretty boyfriends, wanting nothing more than to taste another sweet flavor of you.
You could argue this flavor isn't nearly as sweet as they hope it to be, but it doesn't change the fact that they're the only one to make you feel safe and comfortable enough to allow such a thing.
It always started with Jake, rutting himself against you despite knowing what time of the month it is. Leaving little sighs of "please," and "blood doesn't scare me, it'll help your cramps." Followed shortly by Jay just behind you, hugging you away from Jake unemotionally just so you can feel how turned on he is. "He's right, baby, we can lay down a towel? Get in the shower?" You always denied it, up until this point anyway. Where Jake is already crawling between your legs where Jay is holding them open. You feel gross, but they don't entirely let you give in to that insecurity. The point is, you were okay with them fucking you like this, not tasting it.
They both seemed to be on a war path though. The second you nodded Jake was on his knees and Jay was jumping into action to give his girlfriend's boyfriend easy access. It's the fact that Jake likes it. Dips in like there's nothing seeping out of you but the sweet essence of arousal. Arguably, you'd think whatever it is he's tasting is much thicker than usual. Much more metallic.
But oh, when he pulls back with that drunken and crooked smile on his face, lips lined with red, dripping down his chin, you find it hard not to hide your face initially.
He looked so beautiful. Jay made sure you could see it, gently removing your arms with his own smile, flicking his head back to Jake as if he couldn't wait his own turn.
"Come on, he loves it. Don't be embarrassed." Jay says, voice seeped with ease and arousal. And Jake would remain silent, licking his lips, thumbing the blood against his chin up and against that same already bloodied tongue before Jay moves down and makes room for himself. Spreading your legs impossibly wide, Jay appears far more eager after seeing Jake enjoy himself with each and every scent and flavor of you. Licking up the blood like he was truly born a vampire. Like the blood fills him with life and youth. It kind of fucks you up, really, watching them take turns dip in as if you're not an absolute cramping mess before them, but they take their time.
All the way until your muscles are forced to tense, and then relax, and tense again, and relax again. The mixture of blood and cum shared between both of them to the point all they can do is moan into each other's mouth, both aiming at your clit in a mess of warmth. Feeling two tongues in the same spot has always been a lot to take in, but all of it paired with everything else, along with seeing that pretty red contrast with their moaning mouths, on the tips of their noses, smeared against their chins? What's not to love about mother nature at this point?

If you've read that recent article on polygon about Candela Obscura - "Critical Role’s Candela Obscura fails to differentiate itself enough from its inspiration" (6 November 2023) - I don't know much about the other systems and have trouble being objective about things I love, I was wondering what your opinion is
Hi anon!
I have! I will also admit I don't know Blades in the Dark terribly well, or rather, I have roughly the same BitD knowledge as I have Candela knowledge: I've watched (or in this case, listened) to a actual play show run in it (TAZ Steeplechase) and I've looked at the SRD. The Candela full rulebook doesn't come out for a week, so I really can't judge it for myself. So this isn't going to be objective either, but hopefully it will point out what I think the flaws in this article are regardless of the merits or failures of Candela Obscura as a game.
I think my overall issue is what I said about Polygon on the whole earlier this week: it really feels like their metric is first, is this innovative; and second, "does this reinforce my pre-existing political values in a way that allows me to feel warm and fuzzy and virtuous because I played a fun game/watched a fun show and lets me continue to ignore that I haven't actually engaged in any of that tiresome and inconvenient meaningful anticapitalist action."
I also, for what it's worth, think that this mentality very explicitly conflicts with what Critical Role is doing. I think a lot of people interpret the whole "a group of friends playing games" image as encouraging parasocial behavior (which, frankly, is weird in that while the CR fandom has had a parasociality problem, it's no different than any large fandom - Laurisha shippers or the Twinnies & Husbands crowd are literally just the Actual Play Fandom equivalent of Gaylors and Larries; also like, the pitch for WBN earlier this year was basically "hey, we're four friends playing games" and no one has blinked at that, nor should they have) when I think it's intended to mean "we are friends having fun making and playing the games we want to play; it's great if you'll join us but we're doing what we want." Given that Polygon has shown something of a bias towards those shows that give them early access, I do think it might be that they're just cranky they're not being given any special treatment or catering by an actual play show they've been shitting on for years, and this is simply a vicious cycle.
All that aside, more importantly in this case, I think the article shows a notable lack of Ebert's law: "A movie is not about what it is about. It is about how it is about it." Samantha Nelson, the author of this article, appears to be both incapable of evaluating Candela Obscura outside the context of Blades in the Dark - which is frankly, in my again admittedly limited opinion, vastly overstated as an influence (the Forged in the Dark engine is certainly a strong influence, but that's purely mechanical and also it's still only an influence - more on this later) - and also seems to want Candela Obscura's rulebook to flesh out Newfaire and Oldfaire in the same way that Blades in the Dark fleshes out Duskvol.
The thing is, those wide-open spaces and the vagueness of OldFaire? That's deliberate. The Looper interview with Spenser Starke and Rowan Hall as well as the Tabletop News interview both make this clear. The aim of Candela Obscura is to be very easy to pick up, to not have a bunch of intimidating lore that players and GMs need to know before they jump in (and I say this as someone who, when invited to her first D&D game, was the person who read the PHB and sent the other new players a brief summary of each race and class; I love intimidating lore), and to accommodate a wide range of styles. They considered making Oldfaire much more detailed in the book and then decided not to so that GMs felt more free with the world. Again, my knowledge of Blades in the Dark is heavily skewed by an actual play of it that's explicitly not in Duskvol (which I think is a very interesting commentary, namely, maybe Nelson just really fucking loves Duskvol but no one else gives a shit). I genuinely think they are, as more and more Polygon TTRPG/Actual Play coverage seems to be, barely paying attention to what's in front of them and just deciding based on who put it out.
As I said in my earlier posts I do think Candela distinguishes itself from BitD in a number of ways mechanically. The gilded dice mechanic is obviously one of the biggest ones. The lack of flashbacks - a pretty core element of Blades in the Dark - is another. The fact that scars change your stats rather than dealing a permanent penalty (as Trauma does in BitD) is seen as a flaw, as is the lack of lair-building, but I think these things work in tandem. Blades in the Dark is very much about growing territory and becoming a more and more powerful crime syndicate; while four traumas will take you out of the game the same way scars will, there's a lot more opportunities to heal and I believe you have much more room to take stress. Candela Obscura, as another interview I read states (ScreenRant), is a gothic/eldritch horror game about normal people in unfathomable circumstances. You don't really get much better! You adapt, but progress against these monsters is always a long shot. Candela as an organization has been operating for millennia, and the war seems to be one of attrition, and the mechanics, from what I know from the show, reflect that.
The bit about the criminal crew and the lair is honestly kind of funny to me, because in the TAZ Steeplechase wrap-up I listened to last week the McElroys noted that the lair element of BitD was actually really hard to incorporate and they largely ignored it. Obviously that's not true for everyone, but famously D&D in the earlier editions guided high level play towards running one's own dungeon, and there is a reason that hasn't survived to the newer editions, namely, that shift from being a crew out there doing wild and exciting heists and adventures to painting the walls of your clubhouse and hiring guards is not actually fun for a lot of people.
So in summary: I really don't think the author of this article paid a single scrap of attention to the motivations behind design choices, is mad the horror game doesn't give them a kiss on the cheek and tell them they're So Good at Leftism (the comment about not understanding that the restrictions on scarlet aren't tied to anti-immigrant sentiment is particularly egregious), and generally is like "why is this game that shares some similarities but ultimately rather different goals than Blades in the Dark not literally Blades in the Dark but with slightly more aggressive ghosts."

Tumblr media
Hey D! How are you feeling today, handsome?
Tumblr media
Oh no... what happened? Oh, well that wasn't very nice of Joel now, was it?
Joel, are you being a mean grump again?
Tumblr media
Dieter say's you weren't very nice to him. What did I tell you boys before, hmm? That's right, you need to be mindful of someone else's feelings. I know, bud. It's a tough world out there, but if you can't say anything nice, then don't say anything at all.
Joel, you need to apologise to Dieter.
Tumblr media
Don't look at me like that, I mean it, Joel.
Now, shake and make up. Dieter wants to, look...
Tumblr media
There. All better. Honestly, those boys of mine... 🙄
So, last week we spoke about how we can channel negative thinking into positive thinking. But what about when negativity is directed towards you, by others? Then what?
Hold on tight, it's another Self-Care Session with Dieter & Jett!
There is always going to be someone who, for whatever reason and usually it's rooted deeply within themselves, is not going to like what you're about. Not going to like what you put out into the world.
Or they're just not going to like you. Period.
Yes D. That's right. I know, it's sad. Oh, don't worry, everybody likes you, bud. Trust me.
Tumblr media
It's a fact of the world that opinion divides us, and it is what also makes us unique as human beings. But there are ways to express those differences of opinion in a thoughtful and well construed manner. Respect being the key.
But not everyone can, or wants to, express themselves in that way.
Negative people love to bring others down and sometimes, this can seem like it's the only thing that they enjoy doing. Isn't that right, D?
Tumblr media
In a world full of social media consumption, where it's all too easy to be anonymous, there will always be those who feel the need to push that negativity onto others. And sometimes, in a degrading and toxic manner.
So, how can we can tackle this when it happens to us, Dieter? You got any thoughts on this?
Tumblr media
Well, I mean that's one way to tackle it bud, but seems counterproductive, don't you think?
Tumblr media
Easy there. Are we going to have to have another intervention?
Do I need to ask Frankie to stand in for you again? 🤨
Tumblr media
That's better.
So, lets look at how you can deal with negativity aimed directly at you, be that through a physical person in your life such as a friend, spouse or family member etc..., or via anonymous comments and hate aimed at you on social media.
It's not YOU, it's them.
First thing to remember is that YOU are not the issue.
Negativity often stems from the projector's own self doubts, lack of confidence or traumatic experiences. Negative thinking can become a disassociation tactic, where the projector feels the need to arm themselves with a barrier and a pessimistic outlook on life to remain protected from further harm.
And, in some instances, people are just jerks.
Tumblr media
Not you, D. You're fine.
You can't control negativity aimed towards you, but you can learn to process and deal with it in a way that doesn't linger or infect your mental well-being in the long term.
Don't buy into their negativity.
Don't allow yourself to become infected with toxic negativity.
Do not engage in a difficult person's habitual scepticism. Whatever you do, don't stoop to their level. Maintain your emotional distance and dignity. It's your best weapon.
Trying to convince someone to stop being negative may only challenge to them to amp up their hostility towards you. You know when someone tells you "to smile it could be worse" and all you want to do is lamp them?
Yeah, that. Don't do that.
A difficult person is probably locked into a negative mindset that is part of the fabric of their personality. Negative people often have a demanding nature and put pressure on those close to them. They want others to love and respect them, to "be there for them," yet they are incapable of offering the same emotional support back to others.
Limit your expectations when dealing with them.
A negative person isn't a good choice to turn to when you're feeling down yourself too. When you do engage with them, use noncommittal language. Acknowledge their comments without endorsing what they're saying.
Agree with them as far as you can, then rephrase their complaints using less loaded language.
You can't change their personality, but you might neutralize their toxic outlook.
When dealing with anonymous negativity online, these same points apply to some degree. It's just that you don't know them to be able to start a conversation to direct the negativity. So it's pointless to interact. Ignoring them is the best tactic here.
You can't solve their problems.
It is not your job to make an unhappy person happy. Read that shit again. It is not your job to make an unhappy person happy.
If you set out to change a person overnight, you'll fall short and may end up feeling disgruntled yourself. The only person whose happiness you can control is your own. You can (and should) remain positive when dealing with negative people, but don't fool yourself into thinking you can cheer them up or change their mindset.
Some people thrive on your misery at trying. Don't feed them that.
Tumblr media
Invest in boundaries.
Setting boundaries is how you give yourself a break from an encroaching negative person. You need space where you can clear your head after dealing with someone who zaps you emotionally...
Lord, ain't that the truth.
Keep the negative person at arm's length to avoid being overwhelmed by their toxicity.
Even though you live with a smartphone wired to your hand, you aren't required return every call or text immediately. When you're frustrated or annoyed with a difficult person, take some time to collect your thoughts. Contact them when you're calmer. Give yourself time to recharge your batteries so when you do deal with them, you have the endurance and patience to handle them without resorting to murder.
Dieter and I would prefer not to visit you in jail, right bud?
Tumblr media
Don't bite back. (Unless your name is Max Phillips. Nom.)
Tumblr media
Uh, we'll just leave Max to it. It's spooky season after all... *backs out of the room*
When dealing with a negative person it's tempting to let yourself slide into anger or frustration, but save yourself the heartache. Responding angrily only feeds their negativity. Hold your tongue and listen. Eventually, when they realize you won't give them the reaction they seek, they will take their angry rants elsewhere.
Tempering your emotional responses can be difficult, but it is key to maintaining inner peace.
Protect your zen. No matter what it looks like...
Tumblr media
Try not to take insensitive or tactless comments personally. Negative people are often so wrapped up in anger about perceived indignities that they aren't aware of how insulting they come across.
Although, there are some who wholly thrive on it. They're called assholes sadists.
Take charge and lead.
It's all too easy to become embroiled in a pointless debate and the next thing you know it's turned into a slanging match with threats and tantrums.
Be the bigger person and know when to disengage and walk away.
Tumblr media
Don't allow yourself to stoop to their level of pettiness. You're better than that.
When online, use the block button.
It's there for a reason. It's there to protect you from unsolicited material, things you don't want to see-
Tumblr media
Urm... 😐
It's also there for you to use to protect your own inner peace. Don't be afraid to use it.
And if someone is particularly insulting or harmful, you can always use that other button too - the report button.
If you happen to get an anonymous ask that's negative, the best thing to do is ignore it and delete it. Negative people want to know they're getting to you. It's how they feed off it and continue to harangue you.
Ignoring a bully is the best way in making them disappear as they will eventually tire and move onto someone else when they can see it's having no effect on you.
Drawing attention to negative asks, comments and toxicity on your blog, your social media, or wherever you have an online presence, only invites it into your life further. It's tempting to bite back, but it'll be more powerful if you ignore them.
Delete, block and move on. Delete, block and move on.
Be kind to yourself when others can't.
There will be times when someone's negativity towards you can cut deep like a knife. You're only human and scathing words aimed at you can be difficult to ignore sometimes. Especially when they seem so personal and you may already be in a fragile place.
It can be upsetting, it can knock your confidence and make you question your own self-worth and talent. But don't let them take that away from you.
It's important to remember what we said at the beginning; this is a THEM problem. Not a YOU problem.
And it's okay to feel saddened by it too. Or irritated. We're not invincible. But the best thing to do when that happens is to take some time out and to be kind to yourself.
Have a break, indulge in something you love for a little while that makes you happy. Surround yourself with positive things and positive people to help you find you way back to the sunshine and away from those stormy clouds.
That's the spirit, D! Positivity looks hot on you, baby!
Tumblr media
Now, shall we go and see if we can turn Joel's frown upside down? Shall we do something nice for him, might make him feel less negative?
You got any ideas, D?
Tumblr media
Oof. I think he could be swayed. He really likes it when we do that for him...
Wait, what are you implying? I'm talking about us making him his favourite roast... What are you talking about?!
Oh. Ohhhh...
Tumblr media
Dieter and I - with a little help this week from a surly Joel - hope we've been able to help you understand that although negativity exists in all forms, and will be directed at you at some point in your life, when it happens it's important to understand that you're not the cause of it.
We'll catch you next time for more Self-Care with Dieter & Jett.
Stay kind. Stay creamy. 🖤
Tumblr media
YOU. ARE. STRONGER. THAN. YOU. THINK. 🖤
Do you. Then do Dieter.
More Dieter & Jett here

💙Chaz Thurman NSFW alphabet💙
Tumblr media
Ah yeah back on my bullshit let's go. I'm writing this under the impression that his partner/the reader actually means something to him lmao
[Warning: NSFW obviously, but I kinda go in detail at some parts]
A = Aftercare (What they’re like after sex)
After sex it's just a matter of time before he's knocked out. He'll pull you closer to him and cuddle, but really that's it on his part
B = Body part (Their favourite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)
This is gonna be a shock to most of you, but his favorite part of himself is his dick. I'd think his favorite part of his partner would be their body, no matter the shape or size
C = Cum (Anything to do with cum basically… I’m a disgusting person)
I see him as a greedy lover (of course he is) so he's pretty much chasing his own climax. He'll cum anywhere on or inside you if that's what you're into, but he's honestly aiming to cover you in it
D = Dirty Secret (Pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)
Not so much a secret, because everyone and their brother knows Chaz is a manwhore, but he just doesn't really want to bring up past relationships with you. He'll openly brag about his sex life to pretty much anyone that isn't his partner
E = Experience (How experienced are they? Do they know what they’re doing?)
Too experienced, who hasn't he slept with? If he's banging "half the people he's in a room with" then it's safe to say he knows what he's doing, now whether or not he's good is up for debate
F = Favourite Position (This goes without saying. Will probably include a visual)
Literally anything, he'll do whatever you're up for. His default is taking his partner from behind, mostly so he doesn't have to deal with the closeness of his partner looking at him (he's embarrassed, leave him alone)
G = Goofy (Are they more serious in the moment, or are they humorous, etc)
He's fucking silly. If he's trying to sing to you to get you into bed with him, I mean it might be good, but are you really gonna take it seriously? I don't think Chaz would realize how goofy it is though, he's deadass trying to be seductive...just go with it, it makes him happy
H = Hair (How well groomed are they, does the carpet match the drapes, etc.)
Chaz takes pride in his appearance. Looking at him, he doesn't have any body hair..because he's a shark duh
I = Intimacy (How are they during the moment, romantic aspect…)
Getting him to feel feelings that aren't purely sexual is no easy feat. I think he plays up the romantic aspect because it's what gets people to sleep with him. Maybe occasionally you can get him to take it slow, with soft kisses instead of heavy make-outs, and gentle touches that don't leave bruises in the morning
J = Jack Off (Masturbation headcanon)
He masturbates often, or at least when he can't find someone to have sex with. No doubt that he takes pictures of you two fucking and then gets off to it later
K = Kink (One or more of their kinks)
Goes without saying that he's down for anything, but I think with him being in the mafia, he would like roleplaying that sort of thing with you. Ropes, handcuffs, knives- used on his partner or him. It gives him power he doesn't actually receive in the mafia, or he gets off on giving the control to you
L = Location (Favourite places to do the do)
In the backseat of his car, or in your shared apartment. But honestly he could fuck anywhere
M = Motivation (What turns them on, gets them going)
Honestly he's just horny like 24/7 nothing really provokes him, that's just how the man is (relatable). Though if your goal is to intentionally turn him on, sitting in his lap, whispering in his ear, kissing his neck- all of these are good ways of getting him hard, and he'll 100% return the favor
N = NO (Something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)
I really can't think of what this horny bastard might not like. Unless it's really gross: use your imagination for what that might be
O = Oral (Preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc)
Since Chaz mostly focuses on his pleasure, he'd have a preference for receiving, but if you're topping this man then please do not hold back. You know that one scene of him in the episode? Yeah go ahead and shove your cock down his throat, this slut can take it
P = Pace (Are they fast and rough? Slow and sensual? etc.)
Chaz is used to rough, mind breaking, fast sex. It's just what he enjoys most.
Q = Quickie (Their opinions on quickies rather than proper sex, how often, etc.)
Most of the time, sex with him is just a quickie. Since he's down to fuck practically everyday, it can't be passionate or kinky every single time.
R = Risk (Are they game to experiment, do they take risks, etc.)
Considering he thought fucking around with the mafia boss's son was a good idea, yeah he's known to take risks. Trying to stay unnoticed while fucking you in a public area is super fun to him
S = Stamina (How many rounds can they go for, how long do they last…)
He's got the stamina to fuck multiple times a day, but he's gonna need a shit ton of time between rounds 'cause the man is gonna be drained after lol
T = Toy (Do they own toys? Do they use them? On a partner or themselves?)
Hell yeah..well he only owns a couple, he's kinda too broke. If you're buying em though, he'll for sure use em. They mainly get used on himself, I mean "why fuck a toy when my dick is huge enough" Right? Anyway, spoil him with a strap on bigger than him, I think Chaz deserves to be fucked senseless into the mattress
U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)
Chaz doesn't really see the point in teasing if you two aren't role-playing. He just wants to get straight to it. I mean..teasing the hell out of him until he's a whining, begging mess would be super cool though
V = Volume (How loud they are, what sounds they make)
Apparently loud enough he can be heard from another room. I'd think if he's the top then it's just grunts and dirty talk from him, but when subbing all he can get out are higher pitched moans
W = Wild Card (Get a random headcanon for the character of your choice)
Doting on him during sex is actually a quick way to his heart. Sitting on his lap while teasingly stroking his cock and showering him in compliments, might make Chaz feel more things than he'd like to admit
X = X-Ray (Let’s see what’s going on in those pants, picture or words)
I hope his word is to be believed. I really do hope his dick is huge
Y = Yearning (How high is their sex drive?)
His sex drive is too high (relatable)
Z = ZZZ (… how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)
Kinda depends on when he has sex. If it's at night, then yeah I'd give him like a minute before he's out cold. During the day, he's gonna be worn out but not enough to fall asleep

D. Gray Man: Morality vs Victory (and Survival)
Tumblr media
D. Gray Man has a unique situation as far as conflict goes. The enemy is an army of millions of demon machines that are commanded by a race of humans that are virtually immortal from the perspective of ordinary people...and they can only be harmed/killed by a weapon that is so selective that only a handful of people in the world can use it. This isn’t a situation where anyone can just enlist and train to become an exorcist nor can the Black Order simply conscript new soldiers; this is a world where the chosen few and only the chosen few are physically capable of fighting the enemy.
This is the reality. This is the shit hand humanity in this world was dealt. So from from the perspective of ordinary folk who have no power against this fate other that to rely on the exorcists, many of whom are children, it's easy to see how and why they got desperate.
The other thing to consider is this isn't a normal war. The Black Order isn't the aggressor and the Earl and Noah Clan's ultimate aim is complete and total annihilation of humanity. So there is no hope of a ceasefire. There is no treaty the Order can sign, no way to negotiate, no way to appease the enemy. The only outcome that can happen is the destruction of one or the other.
In the grand scheme of things, the Order has nothing to lose. Lo Fwa recognizes the barbarity of the Third Exorcist Program and says what a ‘good person’ would say,  “This is not how I want to win.” That is a noble thing to say, but for the above reasons, the unspoken (and even spoken) outlook of the Order's leaders seems to be, “Do we win or do we die?” 
Tumblr media
In spite of his photography 'hobby' and unhealthy obsession with Lenalee (cause that part of this character is really fucking creepy when you look past the fact it's supposed to be a joke,) Bak is actually one of the better leaders as far as morality goes.
When the Third Exorcist Program was unveiled, Bak was the only one verbally against it. He's the only one to called out Epstain for her part in the project.
Taking his background into account, this is understandable. His parents both martyred themselves in order to shut down the Second Exorcist Program and to hopefully prevent any similar experiments from taking place in the future. On top of that, when the scandal of what Lab 6 was doing got out, he probably took the brunt of the backlash in his parents' place.
Adding to this, when the Level 3 attacked the Asian Branch, his primary goal was keeping Allen safe. He acknowledged he couldn't fight and refused to throw him into the ring with a 'figure it out' mentality. So Fou took Allen's place. Even at the cost of her life, neither she nor Bak were willing to sacrifice a child. (He was even willing to risk blackmail with the aforementioned photos.)
Tumblr media
We've already seen that Komui's the one who put an end to the human experimentation and he actively advocates on behalf of his sister and the other exorcists. He's also the odd one out as far as the other leaders of the Order go as he's the only one who doesn't have a generational obligation to be there, as both Lenalee and himself came from outside the Order and are the only surviving members of their family. Which in an organization where nepotism seems to be the commonality, that makes his position in the Order pretty impressive. He's the Alexander Hamilton of the Order.
During the attack on headquarters, Komui mobilizes the remaining exorcists to repel the akuma and made the practical decision to destroy the Egg in order to prevent the Earl from reclaiming it. But with the Level 4's appearance and the unknown status of their fighters, he chose to retreat. Like Bak during the Asian Branch crisis, he chooses not to endanger the lives of the exorcists who couldn't fight.
However, during the Third Exorcists arc, this standpoint of his starts to waver. Like Bak, it is to Komui's credit he didn't know about the Third Exorcist Program, but there is still the undeniable fact that he did not oppose the project when it came to light. He's uncomfortable about it, for sure. You can see he is not at all okay with any of this.
But he still says nothing.
The likely consolation in his mind is the Thirds were willing volunteers for the project and are honored to sacrifice themselves if need be, but this is still undeniably a slippery slope that can blow up in their faces. Which it does, resulting in the loss of the Thirds and four exorcists.
A silence of Komui's that speaks louder, though, is the treatment of Allen during his last days at the Order. Komui was in a bad spot here. On the one hand, he still views himself as an advocate for the exorcists. On the other, one wrong word and he might be the next one they lock up. So rather than speak out, he stays quiet in order to protect the others, which effectively means abandoning Allen. He doesn't even seem to be advocating for the Science Division's efforts to help.
There's already conflict between him and Lenalee over this. She's shown arguing with him in Night 204. We don't know what about, but given the context of the chapter, this probably isn't a petty sibling disagreement. Furthermore, where the current chapters stand, she and Marie are refusing to give him any information about Kanda and Johnny's whereabouts. This goes to show that while he does have good intentions, he no longer claims the same level of trust he used to, and that is likely killing everyone on the inside.
There is a distinct divide between 'Komui is Lenalee's brother' and 'Komui is Lenalee's commanding officer.' All the way back in the Fallen One arc, he is rather withdrawn in his instructions for her to recover Suman's Innocence and telling her point blank that he is beyond saving. There is also the post-Barcelona funeral where he strictly adheres to the Order's policy of cremating their dead and refusing to allow the finders to contact the families. Later on, he is even telling himself he can't afford to be sentimental even though we can clearly see how much the losses have affected him.
Tumblr media
After the disaster of the Second Exorcist Program, Bak and Epstain both swore they would never be a part of any experiment like that again.  They lost their parents, Epstain owes her life to the Changs for shielding her from Alma's rampage, and they were left picking up the pieces of the disaster. It was her testimony to Central that put an end to the program.
So why does she go and dredge up all that bad blood to create the Thirds?
Bak, Komui, and Epstain all definitely went through a period of recovering mentally from the attack on headquarters, the appearance of a heretofore unheard of Level 4 akuma, and had to contemplate what this would mean for their organization going forward. It's not entire clear exactly when Komui became the branch chief, but he was 23 when he and Lenalee reunited, so it was around that time. (Lenalee would have been eight when word of the Second Program got out, so he definitely would have heard about it.)
So these three made their promises when they were in their early 20s at the most. In Bak and Epstain's case, they were handed responsibilities that should have remained with their parents for a few more years. Komui was still a teenager when his parents died.
They weren't children, but they were barely adults. In the face of tragedy, they all said, "No. We can be better than this," and they upheld those ideals admirably.
However, after nine years, hundreds of casualties, and catastrophic loss of life later, the Level 4's attack called back everything into question. It's the brutal reminder of their situation and of the three, Epstain is left questioning the stance she took a decade earlier. In short, the appearance of the Level 4 and the prospect of near annihilation scared her.
It definitely scared Komui and Bak, too, but as stated above, only one of them verbally opposed the Third Program. And even Bak gave in eventually.
Fear fueled desperation and desperation blurs where the line should not be crossed, and all three of them are now grappling with the idea of surviving and hanging on to their morality.
And unfortunately, there are the members of the cast that say,  “Victory no matter the cost.”
Tumblr media
Which brings us to this guy.
Leverrier is definitely in the category of 'Characters you hated more than the villain' and his character design definitely didn't help things. From his first appearance in the series, he's callous and cold-hearted towards the exorcists, regarding them as less than people and more weapons and property of the Church. During the Level 4's attack, when Komui gave the order to retreat, Leverrier disagreed and said they should stand their ground in spite of the fact they had a one in a million chance of winning the battle.
However appalling as this decision was, though...it still worked. Sheer, dumb luck that it was, but we still have to acknowledge that Leverrier's decision and Lenalee's resolve were the main catalysts that, for better or worse, led to the discovery of the Crystal Innocence.
Unlike Komui, Bak, and Epstain, we don't have much in the way of backstory for Leverrier's character. There is definitely an element of family pride behind his motives. That is apparent by the vague storyline of the 'daughter that was offered up as a saint' as well as his rant to Link in Night 213 about using Allen and the 14th to win the war and that it's his victory, not Central's.
But there are two moments for this character that I think are telling. One is Link's statement in Night 247. "I have someone whom I wish to save...someone who lives his life restrained and filled with nothing but hatred." Link is pretty biased, so it's hard to gauge exactly what is genuine loyalty vs blind brainwashing, but the point is Link still has some reason to stand in his employer's corner. However, the other key moment is the very brief flashback we get in Night 150 where Leverrier, as a child, is calling out Hevlaska for her part in the human sacrifices, telling her she is murdering her own people.
This is a really odd stance for an otherwise harsh character, which does maybe indicate there was a time where even Leverrier thought the extreme actions of the Order were wrong? If this is true, what happened? If he used to be like the others and did once regard the exorcists as people instead of weapons, why the change?
Tumblr media
There's a bittersweetness to the events of Lab 6 and the perpetrators of the Second Exorcist Program.
What's important to keep in mind is that even though Alma and Yuu were lab experiments, the scientists didn't treat them that way at all. They didn't keep them locked up in cages, the pair had free range of the lab as we can see them wandering all over the place unsupervised. The scientists gave them gifts. Alma knew what winter was despite having never been outside, so that means someone had to have told him about snow. When they had to 'dispose of' Yu, Tui and Epstain are openly weeping, and even Sahlins looks affected.
It's not a stretch to say the scientists loved those two, and so the entire lab did not hesitate to say, "No more." They put an end to the project and martyred themselves.
I think there also was an element of fear in this decision. Tui and Edgar Chang also probably had a line they thought they would never cross, and then they did. Once you commit something you previously thought was unthinkable, the question then becomes, "Where is the line now? How far are we going to go?"
Were they afraid of what they could become?
Tumblr media
Finally, we come to the last character we're going to examine:
On his deathbed, Zhu Mei Chang confesses he is the one who began the human experimentation, that he was 'proud and cruel' and sought only the glory of his clan as he trampled on the lives of hundreds. This was an unexpected point of development for a character who's first appearance was a joke. When he first shows up, he's humbly chopping cabbage in the kitchens completely oblivious to Fou yelling directly at him through a megaphone. This introduction is hardly indicative of a heartless man who possibly tortured and killed many innocent people to have the 'honor of winning the war.' So the humor of him working as a lowly cook in the kitchens takes on a quality of possibly him trying to repent for everything he'd done.
So I'd like to acknowledge the age gap again:
Komui, Bak, and Epstain are still young adults. In their early twenties, they drew a line and stayed firmly behind it. Now they are 29-30 years old and they are toeing the line they themselves drew. That's a nine year difference. Nine years of hardship and a hopeless war that's been going on for a century already. As the audience, we have the benefit of assuming this war is going to end within their lifetime; they don't have that luxury. If nine years, and the prospect of carrying on through this the rest of their lives, did that to them, what did twenty or more years do to Zhu Mei Chang and Leverrier. Tui and Edgar were 39 and 43 years old respectively when they were killed, so their sacrifice may also have been viewed as an escape from a lifetime of warfare.
Allen and company have lost Suman, Daisya, the other Barcelona casualties, Tapp, countless members of the Science Division, General Yeegar, and many others through the course of one year.
With that kind of odds, it's tragically understandable how characters like Zhu Mei Chang and Leverrier may have ended up where they did. I don't like the idea that a character is inherently evil. D. Gray Man is a series full of many characters who are complex and nuanced, so writing off some of them as 'just cruel for no reason' is kinda out of place. Especially when the main villains are just as detailed. With the way things are going for Komui, Bak, and Epstain, I do genuinely wonder if Zhu Mei Chang and Leverrier once drew their own line of morality (as the Night 150 flashback may imply) and then decades of losses led them both to ask, "Survive as sinners or die as saints?"
Personally, I think every last one of the characters listed above who are still alive are headed for a Thanos-esque, "What did it cost? Everything..." tragedy.
Further tragedy has the potential to push even Komui, Bak, and Epstain, further down an ever darkening path. D. Gray Man is not a normal war. Whether they fight for vengeance or pride or to protect those who are left or they feel winning the war no matter the cost is owed to the countless people who have already died, it's still victory or death in the most literal sense for the Order.
That said, for the characters who have already gone too far and crossed the line, there's no redemption nor should there be redemption.
Castlevania Dracula says it best:
Tumblr media
There comes a point where even the most determined of soldiers have to ask, "Does the victory justify the atrocities?" and "If this is what it takes to win the war, then maybe we deserve extinction."
Honestly, I really hope Leverrier's character arc ends with him getting yeeted out a window like it's a Prague regime change.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So where's it all going for the younger generation of the Order?
While they don't have the audience's benefit of knowing the war could end within their lifetime and there is in fact a light at the end of the tunnel, they do have the hindsight of knowing what the Order has done, all the mistakes that have led them to this point. Similar to Komui and the other branch heads, they doubly have the stance, "Our predecessors fucked up. In spite of the odds, we can be better. We can break this chain of generational trauma and win the war without the abhorrent methods."
Wanting to be destroyers that save people.
Hanging on to hope.

May I humbly ask for more q!phil headcanons? 👉👈
Fuck yeah concrete >:D
Previous Sets: Set 1 Set 2 Set 3 Set 4 Set 5
M O R E
He'll go above & beyond for his friends for as long as it takes, but when a situation proves futile or hopeless, he gives up. And hates it. He feels guilty for it even when he knows there's nothing more he can do. He also HATES being helpless (it's part of why he's taking being grounded so hard)
Once his mind is made up, it's made up. It's very hard to change his mind. You practically need a PowerPoint of irrefutable facts & proof of why he should think another way
Yeah. He's stubborn. It can be infuriating. But it comes from a place of life experience, knowing what he wants, and a hint of paranoia for flavor. It's not exactly a flaw, but it does act as a detriment sometimes
And don't get him wrong, he doesn't always like being stubborn. Sometimes he just can't imagine things any other way than how he's picturing. He does feel bad sometimes about being the way he is. He has a hard time trusting things that aren't his gut or Rose
He's grown to like walks. He misses flying obv but walkies are pretty okay. He still gets to see neat stuff, and clear his head if his paranoia isn't too awful
He knows he's losing touch with reality slowly. He's just unaware there's words for it (derealization, dissociation). And he tries really hard not to think about it, it makes him sick with dread because once again, it gnaws at his ability to control his situation or himself
Btw that's one of his deepest fears if it wasn't obvious. Like yeah he has basic bitch fears that most other people have like losing loved ones or w/e, but his personal Big Fear is the loss of his autonomy. It's part of why he's an anarchist & hates the Federation, another part of why being flightless is killing him inside, and part of why Ender King scares him. Especially after Rose's most recent message (1/17/24) said EK has no vessel. Phil's mind shot right to "He needs a vessel and that vessel is me. That's what he wants."
He does NOT like acknowledging that to a degree, he & Ender King DO have things in common. He constantly rationalizes it in his brain as "I have crow brain, I collect the things that look shiny & cool. Ender King is malicious, it's not the same."
Lowkey hates the quiet. It's nice to get out of chaotic environments for bit, but that doesn't mean the silence will grant him peace. He starts getting lost in his own head, or winds up understimulated. Music is a good buffer. Ideally though, he likes having the kids or one person to bounce off of (& keep him mentally grounded when he's stressed). It's why he adventures with Fit so often.
Speaking of silence, and calling back to fears, there's something so inexplicably uncomfortable to him about footsteps that aren't his, esp in quiet. See, the admins invisible Federation workers that just monitor things, he can usually tolerate those bc it's easy to guess when it's them he's accompanied by & not an unknown presence. But man, when he knows he should absolutely be alone atm but hears movement that isn't his own, his adrenaline shoots through the roof. (Little does he know, that's Hardcore Instincts kicking in. He's used to that movement being a mob out to kill him)
Rose's Sanctuary is a fitting enough "altar" for her, so to speak. Even though she made it herself. The Goddess of Death however, Phil needs something for her. He has a locket with a wither rose engraved in it for now, he doesn't want to be questioned by his friends why there's a weird purple & black altar in his house when,,, he might have to tell them there's (an entirely different) purple & black motherfucker trying to maybe possess him who Is Very Bad. Also there's no way they'd believe he's married to a goddess. He can hear Fit laughing already.
He keeps getting distracted but he really wants to either build a practice range for bows or just. Go on a solo adventure shaking off the rust on his aim. He misses the rush of pride he gets when he snipes something so flawlessly. He also procrastinates on it when he's Not distracted bc he has the scythe & he's in love with it. (Also it's a symbol of Death Wife)
Every now and then he'll banter with the invisible Feds trying to bargain with them for the Good Shit(tm) Mexican food they had at Mexican Independence Day. Things have been so chaotic lately he hasn't gotten the chance to ask Chayanne to make them & like HELL he could successfully make them himself
That said, he's actually not a terrible cook like he claims. He just hates how laborious cooking can be LMAO.
Even so, he still really wants to cook for Missa. Purely for bonding reasons. He has no idea Missa would probably crush even harder on him, Phil still thinks they're mutually platonic.

I’m thinking of kaeya x reader Academic rivals to lovers
i just have to say kaeya is a habitual smirker and if i ever met him i think id cry really hard bc hes just so pretty with a smirk
Tumblr media
I think just generally, Kaeya isn't too competitive. He's pretty confident with himself and where is in in life, and really enjoys the system he's got going on right now. He doesn't have to worry about too much outside of his own work, so he just goes to class and then goes home.
However, that all changed when one day, you ran up to him, showed off your better grade, then ran off. He knew who you were and somewhere in the back of his mind it registered that you're his rival of some sort as you also had pretty high grades, but he never though to care until now.
The fact that you were celebrating your victory against him meant he clearly was missing out on some competition and he had no interest in losing now that you've directly challenged him.
Kaeya seems like he doesn't care about his grades since he doesn't seem to do any work outside of school. He finishes his assignments fairly quickly and doesn't spend the entire exam break preparing for his tests. Instead, he's going out or just hanging around while everyone around him struggles, which is why you thought knocking him off his high pedestal was going to be easy.
You had no idea that he was easily maintaining his position above you through the power of time management and ridiculously high standards. Kaeya expects himself to do well, and anything falling short of that will not make it to the grading process. Having such a low tolerance for failure meant he aimed for perfection on the first go, and if he didn't achieve that it meant locking himself in his room for days on end until he did. He was just really good at hiding his academic panic.
When you got a higher grade then him again, as well as props for doing so good on the assignment he decided it was time to take things seriously. He started focusing harder on his assignments, doing even more work than he usually would, and looking especially smug when he retaliated with a simple flourish of his own grade.
You didn't expect him to pick up so fast, nor for your victory to be short-lived but you refuse to go down this easily. Now, you knew you had to up the ante, not caring about getting good grades only for yourself but also to rub that ridiculously handsome smirk off his face.
He found it amusing to see how you were now practically attached to him, constantly trying to get information out of him and see if he'd tell you what his plans for the next assignment were to beat him, or see if you could distract him enough to flunk a test. It seemed to always fail as he always just barely glanced at you or would finish his exam first and then give you a wink before running off.
The tension between the two of you only built on your end. Kaeya found you very adorable, and didn't seem to mind too much the way you tagged after him because he knew he could just keep winning. Once the end of the semester finally came he decided to really up the ante, waiting for you outside of the classroom before dragging you off somewhere privately.
"Kaeya! Let me go I have to get home and start the final project!"
You try to yank your arm out of his grasp and he lets you, standing against the tree with his arms crossed against his chest. He seems to invite you to leave, but something compels you to stay. The two of you stare at each other before he finally speaks, not of course without that signature smirk of his.
"I'm glad to see you're taking our little rivalry seriously. I thought you had given up after that dumpster fire of your last assignment."
You gasp, offended he would say that and huff.
"It's not my fault you got only 2% higher than I did." He shakes his head, tsking scoldingly.
"I only got 2% because that was all that was left to get! I could have done better if I needed to."
This part of him infuriated you. It was clear to you he only dragged you out here to humiliate you and you make to leave. You liked it back when he was ignoring you and the two of you barely spoke and just flashed grades at each other with sneers. Actually talking to him was draining and you didn't feel like dealing with him right now.
"Now come on, don't tell me you're going to leave before I give you an offer to make our last competition for the year more interesting."
"Fine but make it quick," you say, turning to face him again.
"Loser has to do whatever the winner wants." You roll your eyes.
"I'm not going to humiliate myself for you. You really think I'm that dumb?"
"Come on, I'll even tell you what I'll do when I win! That way you can be more motivated to lose."
"You mean when you lose?" He laughs, the sound alighting your chest.
"Considering the result of the last assignment I wouldn't bet on that. When I win I'm going to take you to dinner."
You stare at him with wide eyes, trying to see if he was joking. He seems to not be, casually twirling a lock of his hair as he waits for your response.
"If the idea of that is so detestable I'm sure you'll work hard to win."
You detect the slightest hint of hurt in his voice, masked with his signature aloofness. You bite your lip a little, gnawing on it as you think.
"Fine, but when I win I'm choosing where we go."
His face lights up before he quickly clears his throat and turns around. You think you can see the tips of his ears turning the slightest bit pink, smiling to yourself as the fire underneath you is lit again at the added stakes to the competition.
"Deal," he says, leaning down and sealing the conditions with the soft press of his lips against yours.

ur art iz soso cute and pretty!! do you have any tipz for when working with watercolor(or paint in general)?
Sure!
Dont bother buying expensive materials if youre just starting, cheap or intermediate stuff is more than enough to start off and decide if you really like it and want to continue. Plus some mro expensive materials are harder to use if you dont have practice. I would never recommend a natural hair brush for a begginer watercolorist Those videos about essentials skills to have, or most common mistakes made CAN help, dont let them limit how you experiment with watercolors though, there are no rules. Those are usually tips given to make it easier to do a technic the most common way. You're free to try different paths Aim for an in-between level of "too easy, i can do this" and "too hard thats not on my skill yet". You have to find a middle ground to do it because that's what help keep people interested. If you only paint the very easy watercolor tutorials you see, theres a chance you'll grow bored and tired of it as it has become "too easy". Doesnt have to be every time of course, but it helps alot to not grow bored. It'll take a while to get used to watercolors, even if you know of many technics, practicing them and knowing how they will turn out by experience is another story. Don't feel bad if something didnt go the way you expected, you can always try the oppossite next time and see how that goes.
Copy Master's works, this doesnt have to be just dead masters, living ones too! Copying is a genuine good way of studying. As long as you dont claim them to be yours and give them proper credit, it's not plagiarism. It doesn't hurt to ask though, specially if the artist you are going to be copying to learn is not a big name. In my experience though the artists i've asked if i could copy to study tehir work they had been flattered that i'd want to do that. Theres no need to ask for some big name tho just credit lol, like for example doing watercolor studies of studio ghibli's storyboards..... that's a good one btw! their storyboards are pretty and have GOOD colors but still are super simple! Usually just one layer of paint, minimal wet in wet shading or glazing.
Share Your Works, i know specially for begginers this one can be scary to do, but i promise you that the number of fellow begginers who will feel encouraged by you posting is a great number. And experienced artists who are GOOD people would never look down on a begginer. Rather than "man they cant draw lol" it'll be a sentiment of "i remember when my skills were a similar level! i hope this new artists has a fun time with art :D" Sharing your works and getting feedback and building a small community with other artists or even some fans is a massive encouragement ! [it's not everything of course but it's nice to be appreciated] Uh mind you, this step might take a long while. i've been posting art for nearly 10 years and it took me maybe 8 or so years of posting for something of mine to get more than 70 notes or so. [70 notes is already alot tho! wohhoo!

🔪 tails
Highest K/D in the world currently.
Ask Game wheeeeeee
I know we all love murderhobo Tails, but I have a slight variation on that: Tails is still a kid even though he acts older, and I genuinely believe he hasn't had the realisation that other people are real yet. That sounds bad, so I'll badly explain myself.
I cannot find it now but I remember being taught when I was a teenager in therapy that somewhere in the early teens (where I was) people sort of suss out that other people are real - you obviously knew they were, but you're able to actually conceptualise it now that you have a bit more brain and life experience. I thought this was pretty unhelpful at the time, and that therapist was crap, so it may not be true. But it has effected how I read child characters, if not actual young people.
It's pretty easy for Tails to defeat an enemy. If something seems like it's attacking him, he has an easier time fighting until their last punch than Sonic does. I don't think he's actually bloodthirsty or wants to be violent, but he also doesn't get as weighed down about being honourable and considering the other person yet, especially when fighting. This isn't a lack of empathy - he's very empathetic - but I don't think it keeps him up at night. Yet.
I think it really will when he gets that emotional experience. He's so very smart in many ways, and I think he thinks he has it all figured out. He's analytical and efficient, even, when he needs to use force he is extremely good at it - but he'll get better at conflict navigation when he gets just a little bit older, and he might be a bit mortified about how much destruction he caused.
Long winded rant over. Otherwise:
He's always building new weapons! Not always with an exact goal in mind, some are very specific. He'll be hanging on a bungee cord over jelly-poison and say 'aww nuts, I have the perfect laser for this at home!'
His weapons dont really get tested before use. Big difference between him and Eggman. Eggman robots test themselves (the weakest/ failed QC ones are target practise) but Tails just makes a weapon, shoots/ swings it a few times at a pillow, then stashes it. So they can be a bit unpredictable, and often overkill wheras Eggmans usually aim for Just Enough damage for efficiency. Tails makes more efficient plans though.
He is not weak physically compared to the average person. His friends are all just freakishly strong. He'd do pretty well in hand to hand combat against normal people and has great hand eye coordination.
He doesn't love beating something on brawn alone. He'd rather figure out a way to use an enemies skills against them, it makes him feel like he got the mental victory too.
After a hard battle, he has to go home and brush all the grime and bits out his tails. They collect robot junk and gunk. Often get oil and other nasty stuff in his fur too from working so he washes with degreaser.
Oh look I can write essays about Tails that basically say nothing new! Thank you for the ask I enjoyed writing it! 🥰

Wow, Zu, that pool is BRUTAL, HAHA
I mean, easy way is, free Aim or still have him, so we will get more comic. But even if you said that Ink can't do anything RIGHT, I like to overthink things XD
Like first of all, he isn't that forgetfull, so why should he put him down, with nothing as a "fair deal" for him?
Then, his speech might have some thought into it. Like, where are they again? What if this is some weird anty-void place, that may really kill, or at least teleport Aim somewhere, if his soul was on loose... like, we aren't shown that Ink changed their place, but if Nightmare couldn't find him, and Ink is a creep, it may not be beyond him? Like the first panel he turned Aims soul blue looks like they get through a portal. Losing track of him again, with Ink to deal with in meantime would be no good.
Also, while Cream being like rouge dad and doing the talking papa, it is suspicious, how Dream is reacting. He was the first one to attack and with how stressed he looks, there might be something more going one... like, we got a panel where they are dressed like they were...before, and right after he lowered his bow. I forgot, if Underverse here was a thing or not, but maaaaaybe Dream realized what Ink wants? ...and if he wants them to go back to their roles and intervention in multiverse, then Aim is to be... neutralized.
Also, purple X in the eye? Maybe someone got some unfinished business there...
Anyway, I think that holding Aim's soul is a better solution for now, but it will end up with put him down winning and we will see how wrong this whole rant was XD
Side note, why is Ink wagging his brush??? He isn't a puppy, come on, he should stay sexy, not cute XD
Heheh, I'm so glad I got to convey the tension! (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)♪ And I really like the way you think, one of your phrases was a bullseye ★
Here, Cross and Dream follow two strategies of behavior: aggressive and soft.
Cross acts on emotions, he's driven by fear for his child (which is a maternal instinct that doesn't allow him to let go of Aim).
Dream acts rationally: he sees that there's an opportunity for a dialogue, with no need to rush into battle, and he can feel Aim.
One strategy may be more effective than the other, depending on the situation, and now it'll be up to you to choose how long they last ✧
Sounds like a fun game, doesn't it? :)
P. S. Ink just couldn't realize that these two are those Dream and Cross ("Geez, what has the creator done to you?" xd) and that they're the parents :'D He can be cute! And threatening. Silly! And cunning. Chaotic neutral, en bref <3

haii!!! can i throw another request your way?
can you write a fic on enid where fem reader is a gun expert in alexandria, where enid is eager to learn how to shoot a gun, and she gets paired with reader? so basically, fem trains enid, and because of this, she finds herself attracted to the brunette. but enid is rather cold and emotionless, so she's worried about not having her feelings get reciprocated. one day, when enid is waiting for fem to show up for training, fem doesn't show up. so enid goes looking for her, only to find her drunk in her house. she tries helping her to bed but fem inadvertently confesses her love for enid, to which enid promises to stay by her side forever.
i hope you're enjoying your week!! stay well :D
kind regards f.f

Enid Rhee Masterlist
Tumblr media
you didn’t exactly have a fascination for guns, but you were good with them, and you decided to put it to good use when you arrived in Alexandria. its been over a year since you’ve been here, and you had become somewhat of a trainer to the citizens of Alexandria.
they’d all have to learn to fight one way or another, and having you there made it easier for them to learn how to use different types of guns. Deanna even let you use an empty building to create a small, makeshift gun range.
you took down the shot pieces of paper and started to replace them with new ones you had just drawn out this morning. not only did you teach others how to use the guns, you also drew out the aim sheets for people to practice on.
as you put up the last sheet, a few knocks landed on the front door of the building. you finished pinning it to the wall and walked over to the door. when you opened it, you weren’t expecting to see Enid, a girl you’ve seen around before, but never spoken to.
“hey,” you smiled. “what can i do for you?” Enid pulled at her shirt sleeves before she spoke up. “i really wanna learn how to shoot… do you think you can teach me?” her voice was quiet, and she didn’t really make eye contact with you.
“i’d be happy to.” you told her, stepping aside so she could walk in. “was there any gun you had in mind that you wanted to try out?” you asked once she was inside, and she started to follow you to the room where everything was. “any gun, really. i want to learn to use as many as possible.”
Enid already seemed more determined than most people you had taught. but you still wanted to start off easy at first. “okay! we can do multiple sessions a week if you’d like. but today, why don’t we start off easy with a just a pistol?” Enid nodded, “alright.”
you took a pistol off the wall and reloaded it with ammo. “stand here.” you instructed, pointing down at the red tape on the floor. Enid stood over it and you handed her the gun. “don’t put your finger on the trigger immediately, especially if the safety is off. you can hurt someone or yourself. keep one hand here,” you gently took her hand in yours and placed it on the gun. a wave of electricity struck through your body.
“and the other here,” you took her other hand in yours, trying ignore the second spark of electricity you felt. you shook it off and took a deep breath. “now… lift you arms up, almost at your eye level. make sure you have a clear sight of where you want to shoot.”
Enid did as told, lifting her arms up at the drawing. “place your finger on the trigger.” you said, and Enid did so. “good. now… again, make sure you know what you want to shoot. keep your eyes locked on it, and then go for it.” you backed away from her and watched her concentrate on the paper.
a few seconds later, Enid shot the gun, and the bullet went right through the chest of the faceless person on the paper. Enid sighed, “i was going for the head.” she mumbled. “you still did great,” you encouraged, “most don’t even hit the chest on their first attempt. you’ll get better in no time, as long as we keep practicing.”
Enid smiled, but only slightly. “you wanna practice more?” you offered, and Enid nodded. “alright, do what i did last time, if you’re still aiming for the head, put your hands up a bit higher than last time. make sure your hands are steady, and your feet are planted on the ground.”
another few seconds went by, and then Enid shot the gun again. you watched the bullet go through the head in a clean shot. “yeah!” you cheered. “nice, Enid! you’ll be an expert in no time.”
Enid shrugged, “bit too early to say that, don’t you think?” you shook your head. “not at all. a headshot on your second try? that’s great, dude. don’t doubt yourself.”
you looked outside and noticed the sky beginning to grow darker. “it’s getting late, but i’m free all day tomorrow if you want to practice more.”
“yeah, this sounds good.” Enid nodded. you took out the keys that belonged to the building and locked it up once you and Enid were back outside. “if you need me for anything else, my house is that one.” you pointed over to the house that was across from the building. “thanks.” Enid said back in response before walking off without saying anything else. you watched her walk away for a few seconds, a little stunned by her cold way of speaking, but that didn’t stop a smile from painting your lips.
you walked into your own home and set your shoes by the door, making your way to the kitchen afterwards. while you microwaved some leftover food, your mind couldn’t help but wander to Enid. today was the first day you had spoken to her, but you’ve seen her very few times before that. she was always distant from everyone. today wasn’t all that different. but something about it captivated you.
you couldn’t lie that you were now a bit excited to see her again tomorrow.
Tumblr media
“okay. i think you’re pretty good with the pistol, so let’s start off slightly harder.” you took a pump shotgun off the wall and handed it to her. “now, these have a bit of kickback when you shoot. but i’ll be here behind you incase.” you said softly, and Enid nodded.
“don’t forget what i taught you yesterday. that goes for any gun you hold, alright?” you stood behind Enid and placed your hands on her arms. she jumped slightly, “sorry, just want to help get your hands into the right position. shot guns are way different than pistols.” you said with a chuckle.
“you’re fine.” she mumbled, keeping her eyes locked on the target in front of her. “raise the gun up. a little below shoulder level.”
“close one eye. keep your eyes on where you want to shoot. make sure your hands are steady…. plant your feet on the ground.” you felt your face grow hotter as you stood behind Enid. you didn’t know why just being in her presence made you so weak.
you backed away a few inches, “now shoot.” Enid pulled the trigger and the kickback made her stumble back, and she fell right into you. a chuckle left your lips, although your heart was racing. “you did good. feel okay?”
Enid pushed herself out of your grip and shook herself off. you cleared your throat. “a shotguns bullet are more powerful than a pistol, obviously. so even though you hit the chest, that could still kill a walker. but it you ever get the head with this gun, you can easily just blow it right off.”
“can i try that one?” Enid asked, pointing to the tactical shotgun on the wall. you raised your eyebrows. “this is way more powerful than the pump, Enid. don’t you want to-“
“i wanna try it.” she cut you off, so you nodded. “alright,” you sighed and took it off the wall. you filled it with shotgun shells and handed it to her. she struggled for a moment with the weight of it. “how did you get used to all of these?” she asked you.
you shrugged. “i grew up around them. i never really liked them, but after this shit happened, i figured i had to put the skills i had to good use somehow. and then i found this place. the more i helped others with them, the more i got better with them as well.”
“you’re really good with them.” Enid said. you smiled, “thanks, Enid.”
“can we try them on walkers soon?” Enid questioned, and you let out a choked laugh. “um, let’s practice for a few more days. and then we can try, alright? because if you get hurt, that’s on me.”
Enid nodded and lifted up the gun. you hesitated before asking your next question. “is it okay if i hold your shoulders? this gun is strong, i don’t want you falling down and getting hurt. i promise i do this with everyone.”
“yeah, that’s fine.” she mumbled, closing one eye and holding the gun up close to her. you gently held her shoulders, watching her every move. Enid sucked in a deep breath before she pulled the trigger. her body jolted back against yours, but you managed to keep her in place by holding her. “that felt good.” she laughed breathily, and you looked up at the target sheet. she had gone straight through the head.
“wow.” you whispered. “you’re truly already a master at this, Enid. most people struggle for days, and sometimes weeks. you’re doing great.” you looked at her with amazement, and maybe a little bit of pure love. something about Enid and her being good with guns just pulled you closer and closer to her. you wanted to know more.
you didn’t really believe in love at first sight, especially now in the apocalypse, but Enid had completely captivated you. but if you were being honest, it was probably a lost cause. Enid only wanted to learn how to protect herself, she didn’t come to you looking for a relationship. she was already distant enough towards you. you weren’t looking for one either, but hey, things change.
“i want to help more around here, i guess.” Enid mumbled. you smiled at her, “you’re gonna be such a great help with your skills.”
“you think?” Enid asked, handing the gun back to you. you turned around and placed it back on the wall, “i know.” you told her. “your arms might ache a bit from the weight of the guns. let’s stop here for now… and maybe tomorrow we can head out into the woods to kill a walker or two.” you said, and watched as a small smile made its way to her lips. “okay.”
“alright, head home now and rest. what do you say around noon tomorrow?” you questioned as the two of you walked outside of the building and you locked the door. “sounds good.” Enid said.
you began to say something else, but Enid started to walk away. with a small sigh, you walked across the street and walked into your house.
Tumblr media
the next day in the morning, you scavenged your fridge to find anything to eat. you were running low, meaning you’d have to go talk to Olivia soon to get some more.
you settled with eggs and began frying them on an old pan. as you let them cook, you went back into your fridge, and in the back of it, sat a good amount of canned beers. you pulled one out and cracked it open, practically chugging it down. your hand crushed the can effortlessly and you threw it in the trash before grabbing another one.
Enid left her house and walked the two blocks it took to get to the building. she knocked 3 times, and after a minute of waiting, she knocked again, but you didn’t answer.
with furrowed eyebrows, Enid walked around the building to look through one of the windows, she didn’t see you, or any sign that you were in there at all today. then she remembered that you only lived across the street, so she walked over to your door and knocked again.
still, there was no answer. Enid tested her luck and twisted the doorknob, and to her surprise, it opened. she walked in quietly and slowly. “Y/N?” she called out. no response, but then she heard a clattering in the kitchen.
she ran into the room, eyes widening at the sight of you on the floor, multiple beer cans surrounding you, and your eggs burning on the stove. Enid rushed to turn off the stove and then got down on the ground with you. she gripped your arms in hopes you would look up and notice her. “Y/N? what the hell happened?!” she yelled.
your eyes finally found hers, and you gasped. “Enid! hey!” you slurred your words, and Enid sighed. “why are you drinking this early, Y/N? you of all people should know this is terrible for you.” Enid told you. you shrugged, “i found one in the fridge… and couldn’t stop.”
Enid started to clean up the rest of the beer cans, and when she was done, she started to try and pull you up. “okay,” she groaned, “you need to work with me here, let’s get you to bed. come on, stand up.”
it was a process, but Enid managed to get you to stand up and began to make her way to your bedroom. “you know,” you giggled. “i wish you could hold me like this all the time.” you mumbled, and Enid almost dropped you on the floor. “what?”
“i’ve never met anyone like you.” you slurred, stumbling over to your bed. Enid held your back as you tried your best to crawl in. you fell on your back on the bed with a sigh, “you’re perfect, Enid. and watching you… shoot those guns… you’re just so perfect.”
Enid could only stand there, not knowing if you really meant your drunken words. “i..” you started. “i think i love you. but i know you don’t love me back. i fell way too quickly, why would you ever feel that way too? but all i want… you’re all i want,” you mumbled, staring up at the ceiling.
the bed dipped as Enid slowly got in with you. you turned your head to see her next to you, looking down at you. “even when i’m not drunk, i still love you just as bad.” you whispered, and Enid was hoping that you really, truly meant that. “i’m sorry you had to see this.” you told her, tears pricking your eyes. and now Enid was hoping you weren’t an overly emotional drunk type. “because i will still love you just as much when i’m sober.”
“i believe you.” Enid whispered. “i love you too.” she whispered again, and she watched as your eyes found hers again. “and i’ll never leave your side, ever.”
Enid leaned down and kissed your head. your eyes started to droop as sleep was taking over, but Enid didn’t leave. she only quickly went into your bathroom to fill up a cup of water for when you woke up.
when she came back, she got back into your bed and laid on her side, just watching you sleep. her finger traced your face, down to your eyes, your nose, cheeks and lips. with one final kiss to your nose, she laid her head next to your shoulder and closed her eyes, letting sleep take over her as well.

Hi! Would you be willing to share anything more about your sidestep? 👀 no pressure, of course, but I’d love to hear more about them!
Hihi, yee don't mind don't mind, thank you for the ask and the interest in her!
One thing before I do tho, that this might change later on mattering from how the next 2 books will be when they come out (not like I'm gonna really remember my choices, so probably will replay and deviate from how I did originally in most things), but overall it shouldn't really, just wanna let my Sidestep actually have a happy life after what happened and be able to heal <:D
Also this is going to be long from what I have written so far, way more than I expected, but hope it's alr :D
(It probably has spoilers in there, but tried to not say too much to make sure anyone reading won't be getting the full picture, till they get there. Also edited it, so it has a cut, cause realised that it might take up more space in searches than I want it to)
-Her name is Tiaxy Draconic (based on my sona since I like to have her in any kind of interactive book story to see what can happen with her and to enjoy the story a bit more personally), a gal with white skin, longer braided blond hair and green eyes, who is a seasoned tech-savy tactician, that becomes very conflicted by the events retribution towards her own self, her villain persona, puppet, life and emotions overall making things more complicated than ever,
-Big sweet toothed telepath, favourite sweet specifically is cheescake!
-Her villain name is Tiamat, based on the goddess and looks somewhat like what they designed for her in the game Smite (Overall my sona herself is connected in a way to the goddess in her own lore outside of the books, so seemed most fitting to make it her villain self's armor), but made to fit the story a bit better, other than with the armor having an expressive face on the helmet, which can show her emotions well enough when she wants it to that can be controlled with cams inside the head aimed at her face and with through the ui. The armor itself wouldn't be exactly like the book describes, being apart, but together, like the power armor in fallout (much more to my liking for what I'm imagining an armor of hers is). It's in the terrifying category with speed, jet boost and telepathy enhancing, helping to keep the "no hit record" alive and well enough that she only got hit majorly once, she isn't planning to get hit majorly anymore even if the armor can take it,
-Main motivation as a villain is justice and truth on the other side and she is an anarchist in the 1st playthrough, mattering from which I like, might switch to another (not really into the politics, but doesn't mean I didn't like punting a guy in one of the later missions tho),
-Her base is an abandoned office building (or whatever it was, can't remember the exact name atm), she refurbished it enough to live there, making sure her armor is close enough by for easy access, old apartment wasn't bad though, she lived well enough, manipulating rich peeps to give her their money, funding her life easily, puppet stayed above the apartment after she moved though,
-As a villain, she isn't trying to kill anyone, atleast any civilians (anyone else will get punted if they are in the way), knows they aren't the problem and tries to show the truth to them and to overall everyone, trying to plant doupt where it needs to be present, even if it's naive at that time, her goals are overall heroic rather than villanious,
-She might pretend a lot, masking as she had always done in fear of being seen and recognised, she is trying/starting to be more positive and genuine towards the end, not by much, but it's way bigger difference then in rebirth with her being very antisocial, it might bite her later though, like before, but hopefully can get out of trouble in the next books,
-Says she doesn't want to keep her friends, yet does, doesn't wanna interact with them, yet does and runs into them by accident a lot, doesn't want to love anyone, yet again does and says things she says she didn't actually want and why did she even do so, for example, she agreed to get together with Herald when she didn't exactly plan to, surpising even her own self and ofc making Herald very happy (he is too much of a positive influence on her, both physical and mental, and she couldn't say no, even tho she thinks she wanted to, she didn't, she can't deny it >:]),
-She overall knows something is wrong with her, broken (literally, yknow yknow when), and instead of keeping the destructive habits, tries to get herself together proper and tries to heal, as well as her own self allows and is able of course, and even tries to accept herself somewhat even if it's very hard, she agreed to see the therapist too by Ortega's wishes and recommendation in rebirth and didn't push them away too much in retri, didn't reveal too much either, but wasn't overall hostile, so didn't really regret it that much compared to when she agreed to it and said it helped some,
-Nightmares are still plenty regardless of change (which I hope will change later and she actually can get sleep, cause my god she needs it, every sidestep needs to have a good night sleep),
-As mentioned, she is starting to accept herself, so she is starting to use her puppet a bit less after 2 years and deciding to start going by herself more to wherever she needs to be or mainly in armor rather most of the time though,
-Speaking of the puppet, his name is Jake a white skinned, green eyed, black and green wild haired guy, who got together with Ortega in rebirth and are eternally flirting in retri, which is still the case by the end,
-Puppet met Ortega while boxing, getting some emotions out, they train whenever they can,
-As herself, she became Herald's coach, which was the extent she wanted the connection be, but things took a turn for possibly better than expected,
-Became even more friendly friends by retri with Steel, Ortega, Herald (ofc, who wouldn't) and Mortum through her puppet (broke my heart through the first playthrough tho of retri when Tia gave him the gun as herself and decided it's as good as of a time to tell him something very important [I never regretted anything more in my life, physical and mental damage irl that I didn't think was possible ;-;], hoping tho that it won't bite me later and actually be agood thing),
-Since she unintentionally (def intentionally, even if she doesn't realise) got closer with most of the rangers (other than Argent, they are netrual since rebirth), they all noticed something up with her and always ask "are you okay?", which she at the 4th time was like "why is everyone keep asking me this???", which was honestly pretty funny, getting asked so many times if she is, ofc she isn't, but she won't gonna say it just yet (she did admit it a bit though, with Ortega in rebirth, he did recommend the therapist for a reason),
-Spoon is still the best thing that happened interms of animal interactions, she enjoyed her time with Steel there a ton,
-Would absolutelly be a cat person, if she didn't know better, wouldn't mind a dog either (she needs a therapy dog by the end, I swear, hoping and praying here [even if that doesn't happen, rat king might be better for that purpose for Sidestep specifically]),
-Other than the rangers and a select few, she isn't fond of people regardless of how much change she goes through, that won't change, antisocial all the wayyy babbbyyyy other than friends ofc,
-Compared to rebirth, she calmed down a lot more from the high of her villain self's deput, still that doesn't mean she isn't excited to go and be the villain whenever the time comes, that's still exciting regardless, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have her doubts about wether or not it is truly the right path she decided upon after everything,
-Likes rainy days and water overall. Likes to just watch rainfall from her room, esp likes it when it pours. It's somehow pretty terapeutic just watching and listening to the rain fall. Whenever she is able, she does go to the beach to listen to the waves,
-Likes to wear an almost fully black coat, which is just a very dark shade of blue, likes the fact it is long and almost reach the ground, under it a light blue shirt, with long dark purple pants and formal-ish shoes that are made to make sure she can walk on wet and otherwise problematic surfaces without any trouble, and she wears white gloves.
And I think that's it atm, can't remember more from the top of my head and I think this is plenty for now anyways, I wrote down a lot more than I expected to have! Hopefully this can give a bit more inside into my darling Sidestep, since I'm an artist, I might even draw them depending on if I can stick with what I'm drawing and not just put it on the shelf for later, yknow yknow gjjfj.
Again, thank you for the interest in my gal! If you have anymore questions about her that are more specific and not answered here, just lmk! I don't mind talking about it and aswering, I rather enjoy doing so :]

happy wincest wednesday and happy 2023! reverse uno: what are your favorite ways for john to find out dean and sam are fucking in a universe where dean and john are ALSO fucking?
woooooo wincest wednesday uno games and everyone's a winner --
Except John, lol.
You know, all my wincest fic and all my Dean/John fic and all the Full House of Wincest I've done, and somehow I don't think I've ever written that scenario? How tf did that happen?
Part of it may be that I haaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAATE fics where John's even vaguely a shipper on deck -- even where he's like 'ah, Sam and Dean are too obsessed with each other but That's For The Best bc Thin Hunting-Related Justification' just never vibe quite right with me. I have very narrow parentheses in which I find John believable. (What a surprise, a hard canon stance from ol' z.)
But -- a John who's been fucking Dean doesn't have too much of a leg to stand on, does he. Except: he does, of course he does, he's the god-patriarch and his word goes. It depends, of course, on the type of Dean/John that's been going on, but I'll go with my version because it's mine and I like it best, haha: a largely unspoken helpmeet scenario, where it's just part of the overarching need Dean has for his dad's love and attention and calm and happiness, and where John knows that he's using Dean and knows that even if Dean loves it he's still ruining his son and, this is key, John chooses to keep doing it anyway because that's who John is, as a person. Dean the extension of his arm and the step under his boot and something beloved but also something useful and ignorable until it is time to use it. Not size-72 font obviously awful abusive but -- well. Canon levels of abuse, let's go with that.
SO given that: let's call it a wincest scenario where Sam's in his mid-late teens and wants to take up with Dean. Did he know about D/John, or suspect? My favorite version of weecest + dadcest is actually for Sam to be kind of oblivious about it, as he was oblivious to a lot of key things in his teens (as you gestured to a little in your answer) -- he wants Dean and his attention and his love but he's also a very strong-willed teenager and so he also just wants to get his rocks off and knows that Dean's willing, whenever they crack past that barrier. And Dean, already with that door blown open inside himself, can't help it -- because after all he knows he's good at this, and he knows that it does make people closer, and he loves Sam and wants Sam to be calm and happy too, and isn't it just -- easier? He'll leave John on a hunt well-drained and focused and come home to Sam all bitchy and missing him and saying stuff like he shouldn't make you hunt, you should be in school, and Dean sighs and he could argue but he could also thumb Sam's hip, and Sam'd shut up all big-eyed and hopeful and going, oh, can we -- and Dean can say something like, yeah, and missed you, Sammy, which is only true, after all. And it's good, and when Sam's snoring on the fold out couch Dean can shower and carefully thumb two loads out of himself and then call John and say how's the job, Dad? and not really -- think about it. It's just taking care of things, like he always does.
SO, given that: it's easy to have John walk in on them -- a hunt finished early, they're wrapped up in each other; it's easy to have a demon tell him, and he doesn't believe it but then he's been hearing a lot of stuff about his boys from demons, and they lie but also blah blah. I prefer small and undramatic, though, so what if instead it's that one day John's home and he's actually slept well for once and he's not hungover and he's just going through the paper at the table, and Dean's cleaning the guns like he's supposed to and Sam's doing homework like he's supposed to and John, not being an idiot or a monk, just -- picks up on a vibe. A look Sam gives Dean. A smile from Dean to Sam that John's had aimed at himself, in key moments, and he just -- knows, the way that sometimes you know things, and he's sitting there with the paper and his hands turn to fists.
He's NOT a shipper on deck. He's NOT thinking 'oh, The Things I Have Done To My Family, O Woe But Unforch That's The Way It Is.' I think he's not thinking at all, in the way that we can ignore deep horrors if we have to, and he closes the paper, and he says he's going out, and he takes Sam with him because -- he's the dad, he gets to -- and Sam's sullen in the passenger seat as they head to the gun store or to buy salt or whatever errand John's operational-matters mind invents, and they barely talk but John watches Sam as they go through the chores and gears are turning and he --
stops fucking Dean. Stops talking much to them at all, for a while. Takes jobs and sends Dean on jobs and makes Sam help. Work, and work, and work, and when they're alone once Dean's not being subtle about trying not to look at John, because he doesn't know what he did wrong but he must've done something wrong, and John can't say, and he knows it's hurting Dean but then again when has he ever not done something he thought was necessary because it might have hurt Dean? And Dean heals because that's also what Dean always does, but there's a crooked spot where the bone broke, and later when John's dead and Sam holds Dean on a night after and kisses his cheekbone, careful, not sure what's okay now that everything's even more fucked up, Dean keeps his eyes open on the ceiling and sees ghosts of older days.

DEMO COMNG IN AN UNDISCLOSED TIME :D
Tumblr media
The file slides across the table, the contents of which are for an upcoming mission you and your partner are being sent on. The look on your superior lets on how dangerous this will be. You've only ever been on small missions, not known enough in Nova H.Q. for you to be trusted fully. You understand, they can't afford a snitch getting in.
Opening the file shows 2 photos. The first is of the infamous 'Black Hole Casino', its golden walls and bright lights give it away. The casino is built on a spaceship that follows a very specific route, it moves in an infinity symbol going around Earth and Mars, for what reason is unknown. Both planets lack the population you would assume the casino would need to thrive.
You share a look with your partner as they hand you the other photo, It shows the captain of the ship and owner of the casino, Arthur Rogers shaking hands with a man whose face is hidden from the security camera this photo was taken from. Your eyes scanned the photo, looking for the importance it holds. A small gasp left your lips at the sight of the symbol on the mysterious man's hand.
Your eyes dart back up to your superior who offers a nod in confirmation. This mission may be bigger than you can chew, but you've worked hard in this organization for an opportunity like this, you will complete it even if it costs you your life. You just hope it doesn't come to that.
