You know what you are so right, I was very surprised by the amount of haikyuu boys with sisters, especially with kuroo and bokuto because they give such older brother vibes (with kuroo being an only child who adopts random people as his little siblings), so I think your take was very accurate don't even listen 2 canon baby you're the new haikyuu creator
omg thank you. i will do absolutely nothing with this power except maybe put the sisters in the story more bc i’m a sucker for sibling interaction. love u

Nike, I honestly can’t believe what I’ve seen today. Of course I’m so excited about the SJM interviews that just keep coming, with all the mentions of elain, fmcs, mates and fate vs choice, and all of that good stuff. I’m surprised she even went that far on the mates question. She could’ve easily just said yeah if a couple are going to be mates, I also make sure they go on a journey together… instead she expressed her interest in wrong pairs! At the same time, I’m honestly really… shocked at Gwynriels doubling down. It actually has unsettled me how stupid some people are acting. Not saying that to be mean or funny. I guess I just sort of got used to them being a presence in the fandom, as much as one can get used to it :) but seeing them take the “kiss” part of SJM’s quote so literally, seeing them come into anons to fight about it. Seeing them twist what SJM said to fit their narrative is just… astounding really. I didn’t expect them to give up after this interview, but seriously. To double down this hard is concerning. If SJM’s words aren’t getting through to them, you’d think they’d at least be a LITTLE conscious of the fact that every single publication that interviews SJM has mentioned Elain, mates, the bat boys being love interests to fc’s, or all of the above. I’m just surprised. Today has confirmed for me they won’t ever accept elriel. It’s like you said, even after they get their HEA, they will still theorize Elain will die. I just want this nightmare to be over
I think it was the first wave of disbelief. It was harsh. Like they had this whole fantasy side story concocted where there would be training, and secret library trysts, and House of Wind Gang, and sorting out Illyria and whatever else. Gwyn was shadow mommy, Az was shadow daddy, they were gonna gave shadow babies with her extra super pliable bones.
And then stuff began to leak, firstly the bonus chapters and it's like, oh shit. None of this is how we thought it was gonna be!
And then it was the magic bean, and there is no need for Gwyn anymore at all.
And then suddenly it's Nesta, 'taking Gwyn's role' of hanging out with Azriel.
And then it's 'The Cauldron is corrupted' and maybe it's not making perfect 'bonding' choices and there IS something weird about the Elucien bond. And then SJM starts yakking about bond vs choice and suddenly, Elucien is not looking too good at all (never did, but it's just d.e.d. since yesterday), and if Elucien is looking bad, then Gwynriel is looking even worse, since Gwynriel was wholly dependent on Elucien to happen.
And now there is no 'Azriel book'. And no Azriel book means no Gwyn joining him in Illyrian redemption or whatever else.
It was a tough day.
Now they are throwing everything in the pool to see what sinks and what floats. 'It's Helion and LOA's! bond' SJM was talking about. (what bond?) 'The interrupted kiss means she is not gonna write Elriel' (nevermind that every couple had an interrupted kiss). It's a lot of confusion and rebranding.
But it could've all been so much easier.
A moment of silence for Gwynriel might be in order.

Zukka fic list part 2
On ice we fall (in love)
Zuko and Sokka rivals to friends to lovers slowburn competitive figure skating AU.
Foolsong
Zuko is an idiot trying to get over a breakup, Sokka is a hockey boy, and online dating isn't really that awful.
Blue
Iroh insists they create a new life and identity in Ba Sing Se. Zuko wants nothing more than to bide his time until his next opportunity to return home, until he realizes ‘Lee’ can get away with things Zuko never could.
Zuko dons the mantle of the Blue Spirit again only to los e his focus when the Avatar comes to the city. This time, however, his attention is drawn to the annoying Southern Tribe warrior.
winter solstice: an addendum
Zuko gets imprisoned with Sokka and Katara during the winter solstice, and some very unfortunate things come to light. Alternatively: the gaang kidnaps adopts Zuko in book one after discovering just how awful his father is.
I'll Come Back Someday (For You)
“We’ll be together someday. I won’t stop looking until I find you again.”
Those words, Sokka thought, were a blessing.
After living through several lives without Zuko, they now feel like a curse.
They were the last words Sokka muttered to the Fire Lord on his death bed after saving Avatar Korra from an attempted kidnapping, and while he meant them, he didn't know that they would come true.
Yet, he tried, tried, tried again, and after cycling into his fourth life, he's starting to give up hope.
All until he walks into the Jasmine Dragon right next to Republic City University's campus.
(i'm sorry but) i'm just thinking of the right words to say
Zuko is the last person Sokka expects to end up as his roommate when he starts college. Sokka is the last person Zuko expects to befriend when he starts his whole life over. And no one who knows a thing about their shared past expects them to end up together. Except, maybe, Toph.
There's Bound To Be A Ghost At The Back Of Your Closet
Zuko needs a new dad, and Hakoda volunteers. A story spanning Zuko's old life, new life, and beyond
running right back to you
the air conditioning stops working at the Jasmine Dragon, and it's miserable until a cute stranger makes it a bit more bearable
Sorry, I Have to Move to Alaska!
Following a lengthy legal battle with Ozai, Iroh has full custody of his niece and nephew. Desperate to get Zuko and Azula away from Ozai (just in case) Iroh buys a tea shop in Anchorage, Alaska.
Sokka has been living in Anchorage since birth and nothing interesting ever happens in this city. Except less than a month into this school year, the mysterious new kid with a facial scar beats up a well-known student in first period.
purrfect for each other
because sometimes, it takes going to a cat café four times to realize you're in love with your best friend
The World We Dream About
A HS Theatre Kid AU where the gaang is in Hadestown, featuring all our favorite high school nostalgia moments and way too many tropes
when i'm set alight
“I’m going to go practice some firebending forms,” Zuko says stiffly, running a hand through the tangles in his hair. “Tell Aang to join me if he wants to once he wakes up.” Gold eyes dart up to where Aang had strung up a makeshift hammock and was still sleeping soundly, snoring like a buffalo yak.
“Alright,” Sokka says, watching as he walks out without another word, evidently having reverted back into his usual brooding self. “Have fun!” He calls after Zuko loudly, which he means to be sarcastic, but comes out painfully, embarrassingly sincere. His face burns, and as soon as Zuko passes out of sight into the the temple, Katara turns to him, leveling him with a Look.
“You like him.” She says, and it’s not a question.
Born Lucky
Zuko knew this would happen one day.
He really should've prepared better.
Of course, he'd imagined something like this many times. He'd see him-- or anyone from high school, really-- and he wouldn't even be recognized. They'd be immediately enamored with him and wouldn't even pause to think he looked like that one girl from high school.
Instead, he has a 24-year-old Sokka cradling a swollen wrist and smiling awkwardly up at Zuko.
like we're made of starlight
When former High Imperial Prince and Sith Acolyte Zuko defects to the rebellion Commander Sokka is tasked to keep an eye on him and bring him into the fold.

Enemy Number One
Tommyinnit x Streamer!reader
MCC on a different team than Tommy doesn’t go to plan
Word Count: 899
A/N: This is my first fic for Tommy/mcyt so I hope you like it (and please request for them)
Warnings: Language (lots of it)
Tumblr media
For this MCC, you and Tommy were on seperate teams. Scott decided that since you two went public with your relationship, he didn’t want anyone to have to deal with both of you on one team so he split you up. You two had been on the same team in the past so neither of you were upset at not being together for the tournament.
You were on Yellow Yaks with Wilbur, Phil, and Shelby and you guys were third with only two more games left. If your team did well enough, you could make it to the top two and play in Dodgebolt. 
“I think it might be hole in the wall,” Phil said as you all watched the chickens move about the voting arena.
“Nooo,” you whined, “I want to get to the other side. It’s more fun.”
“But we’re better at hole in the wall,” Phil countered, “It’ll put us in a better lead for the last game.”
“Or, we can save it for the last game and pop off,” you suggested. 
You watched as the in-game chat started counting the chickens and then the chosen game flashed up on the screen, “Yes!” you yelled, startling everyone, “Okay okay, just remember on the building ones to build up high first and then bridge. You’re less likely to get knocked off that way.”
~~~~~
You were halfway done with the game and you were sitting in the top ten. The past three rounds, you had gotten knocked off and your chat had informed you that it had been Tommy each time.
“Chat, does he have it out for me or what?” you asked, reading through all the messages saying it was Tommy who kept knocking you off, “Listen, we had an agreement we wouldn’t go easy on each other but I didn’t think I would have to tell him to not fucking target me. If he does it again, I’ll kill him.”
You umnuted on Discord and explained to your team what was happening, “Tommy is being a dick,” you said, “He keeps knocking me off. Chat is saying he’s purposely targeting me.”
Phil laughed at your complaint, “I’m not surprised.”
“Philza Minecraft. He is the reason we are losing. You should be more upset,” you said, pouting.
“Y/s/n just punch him back,” Will said.
“You know I don’t need an excuse to do that,” you said as the next round started. It was a building one so you built a pillar and started bridging across the platforms. From the corner of your screen, you saw the familiar pixels of Tommy’s skin coming closer to you.
“Oh no you don’t you bastard,” you mumbled under your breath. You tried to move away from him but it was too late. You tried to fight him off once he got close but it didn’t work. You got knocked off into the void.
“Tommyinnit you fucking dickhead prick!” you screamed, way louder than you anticipated, “I know where you fucking live and I will fucking murder you.”
“Everything okay over there?” Phil asked in the moment of silence that followed your rant.
“Does it sound like everything is okay? No Tommy fucking hit me off again. I need to go yell at him. I swear to god I’m going to commit murder or arson or both.”
~~~~~
You managed to keep your cool for the rest of the two rounds but as soon as you got back to the main lobby, you grabbed your phone and called Tommy.
“Tommy fucking innit. What the fuck? You kept hitting me off. Each round. Six times in a row. What the fuck!” you screamed through the phone.
Tommy had to quickly mute on discord so no one else on his team heard your angry rant. He tried hard not to laugh as you were yelling but he let a chuckle slip.
“Are you laughing at me?” you asked him.
“Well technically yes but also no,” he said, trying to cover himself.
“What does that mean?”
He changed subjects, trying to get the heat off of him, “Are you really upset with me over the game?”
“Not really but don’t you dare target me again like that,” you threatened, “Or I’ll make you come to America to visit. I won’t come to Brighton anymore.”
“Okay okay I won’t,” he said, holding his hands up in defense.
“And you also have to win me a stuffed animal from the arcade,” you added.
“Fine,” he replied, “I’m sorry.”
“You better be,” you grumbled, saying goodbye before hanging up on him, “I’ll murder him chat,” you said to your viewers, “Unless he does win me that stuffed sloth I wanted. Then he’s forgiven.”
Of course, everyone knew you weren’t actually that mad at him and you were just overreacting for the content. Yours and Tommy’s fans know that you wouldn’t let a video game competition break you up or cause an argument.
~~~~~
In the end, your team finished third behind Purple Pandas and Tommy’s team, the Red Rabbits. For Dodgebolt, you immediately got the red foam finger and cheered for his team.
His team didn’t end up winning so you had to take the chance to bully him a little on Twitter before you two called and you made sure to tell him how great he did and how proud of him you were, which he returned.

Diaboys (+Yui) Ideal Vacation destination •3•
•Yui grew up so sheltered, she barley saw anything in Japan X-X. So I think she should visit Mt. Fuji first, you know, get to know see the main attraction of her country. She definitely has dreams to travel the world tho.
•Shu does NOT travel. Too much effort. But if he did I think somewhere very secluded. I really like the Idea of him in Greenland, but it might bring back some traumatic memories… (the girls that get it, get it). So maybe and Icelandic Island, or somewhere in the Scottish highlands (can someone please draw Shu chilling with Nessie X-X).
•Reiji is fluid in German so I think he should visit the alps, but the Austrian ones. With all due respect I don’t think my man can handle north Germany X-X (as a German who’s das lives in north Germany, but grew up in the south. I know). I also have a headcanon, that Reiji is very good at skiing. Not sure if he can understand Austrian alp dialect (my grandmas from there so again. I know) but I believe in him
•Ayato would probably be somewhere warme. To do all the water sports and stuff. I really like the Idea of him in Mexico
•Kanato CAN’T go anywhere too warm or sunny. I think Switzerland, the mother of chocolate (let’s not talk about where chocolate is ACTUALLY from). Swiss chocolate just hits different
•Laito goes to Greece. It’s just right.
•Subaru is also not a travel man, but I like him in either the Netherlands or New Zealand. I can’t explain it just feels right
•Ruki would probably go somewhere in the Caucasus area, like turkey or Armenia (yes I know turkey isn’t actually Caucasus area, but I forgot the English word for it). Like I totally think he would explore the remains of Troy (if it really was troy) and go to archeological sights. I also like the idea of him in west Africa for the same reason.
•Yuma would go to a small village in Calabria (I hope that’s also what it’s called in English, but anyways it’s in south Italy). He would have his own little garden there and gets along great with the locals, despite not speaking a word of Italien.
•Kou has traveled the world, since yk he’s famous. So I think he’d go on a wellness retreat on a mountain in Nepal, or to live with yaks in Mongolia.
•Azusa would either go to the middle of the Saharan desert or to Siberia. No in between. I like him more in Siberia tho. Fun fact: my fathers from a little city in the very VERY west of Siberia, and I’d just think it’s cute if he went there :3 (I’ve literally never been there, even tho I’d really like to go. I just know my dad was born there)
•The Tsukinamis travel together. No other option. If it were up to Carla (which it mostly is) they take a tour around Europe. If it were up to Shin, they’d go somewhere tropical, and very much not Europe, like maybe Kongo or somewhere in South America.
•Kino goes to Korea. Again I can’t explain it, it just makes sense. I won’t specify which Korea… because he would just go to both

RIDERS OF BERK | HTTYD SERIES | HICCUP X ASTRID
Blog Post Series : HICCUP X ASTRID
Title : Animal House
Ep/Season : Episode 3, Season 1 (Riders of Berk)
Premise:
The animals on Berk, the sheep, yak & chickens have yet to accustom themselves to the new occupants… dragons. As such, they’re not producing enough produce in retaliation to the fact. Hiccup is charged w the arduous job to synergise the situation before a horrible storms arrives. Yet a second plot-line catches my eye instead…
Romantic Development :
While it isn’t explicitly out there, and when push comes to shove, we know Hiccup & Astrid like each other. Though they are pretty low-key / inexpressive about their feelings it’s clear somethings brewing beneath the surface. Hiccup will become chief & there is no better chieftess to choose from their tribe and age-group than Astrid. Though neither of them were ever forced to choose each other by virtue of the facts.
Apart from some fraction-of-a-second glances, mostly by Hiccup, their relationship doesn’t fully bloom until much later on, but episodes like these just show you what these two were made of and why their destinies were perfect to begin with.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The episode opens w the two of them racing down a snow peaked mountain. Both equally competitive and playful. This is a side you don’t often see of Astrid. She’s mostly serious, strong and defensive. She’s obviously relaxed around Hiccup, which is why she smiles more, feels free to be herself and even dares to plays loose w the rules when they’re alone.
An accident causes an avalanche to hurl at them. Though they could’ve easily flown away, Toothless’s tail gets stuck and so, Hiccup is stuck. [Side note: I really appreciate how the technology of Toothless’s tail & Hiccup’s inventions develop as their characters do. And you even watch Hiccup tinker around and build a rep w his creations. It’s nice to watch hard work pay off, which you won’t get to see unfold just by watching the films].
Astrid swoop down to try and save them, but they fall into a ravine and while snow pours in to bury them, they seem to have entered a cavity and are quite untouched. Astrid calls out for Hiccup, who immediately holds her. This is where I melt. Though small, considered “unmanly” and even a runt in Viking culture, Hiccup is more man than many romantic leads written. It isn’t the size of his person that makes him big, but the size of his heart.
He immediately takes Astrid into his arms when she’s cold and afraid, though he must equally be. And this tender affection and compassion he has towards people, particularly her, draws her towards him more than any “pseudo-macho” facade could. He always puts the needs of others before his own.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
They soon discover that it is because of their dragons that they’re safe, understanding now the ingrained loyalty instilled within the two-way dragon-Viking companionship.
This kinda proves that the timeline of this series kindles quickly after the 1st movie, because it is clear they’re not completely familiar w their dragons yet.
Tumblr media
Excited, they convey their new discovery to their friends.
Astrid & Hiccup both love dragons. They have a passion for their pets and an unmistakable love for the beast. The only thing they aren’t sure about yet, are their feelings for each other. And are awkward about them if ever brought up.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My favourite part about the episode and why it is one of my early favourites is because this is the first time you see both Hiccup and Astrid play pivotal roles in dealing w Berk’s affairs. We know they’ll grow into the roles one day, but this is sorta where it all starts.
While it is Hiccups charge to get the animals to work together, Astrid, unlike the other teens is more proactive in helping him. She even tries to allay his concerns, and from hereon you will see that her support and presence brings a lot of encouragement and strength to Hiccup as the series progresses.
She is also always seen by his side, which is a sign of support for him and a sign of safety for her. We know she is a fearless warrior, but what I love about her is that she has a feminine side that only Hiccup gets to see. She trusts him.
This episode was lovely. Not only because of Hicstrid, but also because of how Stoic handles Hiccup’s first failure. He doesn’t berate him about it. He lets it slide knowing that his son tried his best. He encourages him. He is still there for him.
It was also great to see Toothless solve the issue by saving the sheep and then taking the initiative to nudge the sheep towards the warm circle causing all the other animals to do likewise. This display Toothless’s intelligence which is what differentiates him from many other dragons.
HTTYD is essentially a movie about Hiccup and Toothless, and a great deal about their friendship and shared characteristics. Toothless is clearly suited to being a leader like Hiccup is.
The circle of warmth they created to protect their humans was an initiative Toothless started and just like Hiccup and Astrid, every decision they make is for the betterment of others.
I’m pretty impressed w how the creators of HTTYD managed to play w the nuances of each of these strong character traits and make them as refined as they are. Beneath this franchise is a whole lot of good character building and character mirroring which is fantastic for fans like me who love dissecting these little details.
Hicstrid is an unmatched couple in the DreamWorks Universe for me.

This is a Billy Hargrove x OC (or reader). This is also my first go at writing Billy so please feel free to leave suggestions or requests!
———
[Y/N] stood outside the arcade, waiting for her younger brother Dustin and his friends to come out. She had been standing there for a few minutes, leaving against her Chevy impala with a cigarette between her fingers. It was something about the nicotine that seems to calm her system as she stared into the parking lot, taking a long drag into her lungs. Dustin always told her that those things were going to kilo her one day.
She chuckled to herself and shook her head as she glanced back to the arcade. Her attention was brought back to the parking lot once she heard a loud engine coming closer to her parked car. [Y/N] frowned once she saw the blue Camaro pull into a spot directly across from hers. She watched as the proclaimed ‘king of Hawkins’ stepped out of his vehicle, slamming the door with force as if he had expected his younger step sibling to hear the sound and come running.
Her eyes went behind her as the doors to the arcade opened and her brother and his friends came outside. They all gave nervous glances towards the Hargrove boy as they made their way to [Y/N], feeling safer next to her than they would alone with Billy.
[Y/N] had a reputation in the school of not putting up with any kind of BS, especially when her younger brother was involved. The carefree and spitfire attitude did not discriminate.
“Max, time to go,” Billy yelled, anger evident in his voice since he had to pick his sibling that wasn’t even his up. That’s when his eyes landed on Lucas. Now [Y/N] new Billy had a hatred of Lucas, but she never knew why, she just figured Billy was a little dick man who felt threatened by anyone who got close to Max. This was also when [Y/N] saw Billy take steps towards the group, a sour look on his face as he stomped out his cigarette.
[Y/N] took a step in front of the kids, knowing that whatever Billy was about to do, it would be stupid and irrational.
“I told you not to hang out with him,” Billy seethed, pointing accusingly at Lucas. He didn’t stop after he spoke, he continued waking until he reached [Y/N]. “I suggested,” he spoke, his voice low, “you get out of my way, Henderson.”
[Y/N] made a face at the way he said her last name. Like it was vile.
“Excuse me?” She responded, spitting it out like an insult, quickly replacing her confused look for an uninterested one.
“I said, get out of my way,” he repeated, seeming like he would push into her, “I won’t repeat myself again.”
[Y/N] looked at her chest as his finger poked into her shoulder. She lazily looked up at Billy, a playful smile graving her lips. “I don’t know what game you’re playing, Hargrove,” she took a drag of her cigarette, “but there’s no need for the hostility,” she blew the smoke into his face, a carefree look on her face as he took a step back from her.
His faces morphed from a calm anger to absolute seething rage. His gaze went behind her to Max, “get in the car, now, Maxine. Or there will be consequences.” He went to take another step forward as the boys, the boys being Dustin, Lucas, and Will, seemed to shield Max from her step-monsterbrother. Before he could lay a hand on any of the children she was supposed to pick up, [Y/N] slipped in front of him again.
Even though she had to look up at Billy, she didn’t let her anger waver as she did so. She threw her cigarette on the ground and stomped on it before she put her tight index finger on his chest. “I know the kind of man you think you are,” she started, her voice sweetly laced with venom, “you think you’re so big and bad because you’re ‘above’ everyone else,” she let out a dry chuckle. She looked down as he flexed his hands and balled them into fists. She let out a ‘yak’ noise before looking him in the eyes again. “You wouldn’t hit a girl, would you?” She taunted him, tilting her head.
His silence was more than an answer. “What you’re gonna d-“
He cut her off, “what I’m gonna do? What I’m gonna do is take Maxine home,” his voice was nearing a yell, thinking it might cause [Y/N] to back away.
It didn’t.
“You’re gonna go home,” [Y/N] started again, “and tell Neil, that her friends sister is bringing her home, and if he has a problem with that, we’ll y’all live two doors down,” she gave a sickly sweet smile as he took a step back, eyes burning with rage towards the Henderson girl and his step sister before he went back to his Camaro.
“[Y/N]!” Max yelled, almost in excitement, “no one’s stood up to him like that before.”
She smiled back at the younger girl. “I’ll never let anything bad happen to any of you under my watch.” She stated as she eyed Billy. His cold stare burned into her as he pulled away. She could only wonder what would be waiting for him at home.

now im curious. what are your favorite and least favorite g4 episodes, and in a similar vein, your favorite and least favorite g4 characters
i won’t elaborate on all of them because it’s just like. way too much lol there’s so many episodes in characters but LET’S GO
favorite characters: TWILIEEE, I like all of the mane 6 but she’s my girlie, the royal sisters, trixie, maud, sunset, starlight as a villain (she should’ve stayed a bad guy she’s so FUN! a villain who’s power is her words)
least favorite: neighsay, star swirl (the pillars are all just boring as hell honestly), the wonderbolts (seriously? why do they all suck?), “reformed” starlight, maud’s Sheldon cooper boring boyfriend, daring do (i don’t care for the implications of her character), discord (sort of? in canon, because i adore him conceptually and also occasionally. he’s so fun when he’s not awful
not a strong attachment but yona is also really cute, i just think her design is ridiculously adorable and also love her va’s delivery. very funny
For episodes, there’s quite a few but I’ll try and limit myself per season! There’s are ones that I just find the most comfort and enjoyment out of, I like other episodes but these are what really stand out.
Favorite episodes:
season one: ticket master, look before you sleep, winter wrap up, suited for success (a fantastic episode that really made mlp stand out!), and best night ever
season two: return of harmony & canterlot wedding, lesson zero, hearth’s warming eve, hurricane fluttershy,
season three: sleepless in ponyville, wonderbolt academy, magical mystery cure
season four: pinkie pride, it ain’t easy being breezies (ty for a fluttershy episode that breaks away from the usual plot), maud pie, twilight’s kingdom
season five: the cutie map (yay villain starlight!), castle sweet castle, make new friends but keep discord, canterlot boutique, crusaders of the lost mark
season six: a hearth’s warming tale (minus the shaky introduction, the songs are soooo so good), the times they are a changeling, to where and back again (I know I complain about the treatment of Chryssie and those ugly Changeling designs but it’s a solid shakeup from the status quo and sells me more on Starlight as a character)
season seven: parental glideance, discordant harmony, perfect pear, it isn’t the mane thing about you
season eight: horse play, sounds of silence (i just like the kirin’s designs lol)
season nine: she’s all yak, between dark and dawn, the last problem
Least favorite episodes vary between i don’t like this for personal reasons and I don’t like this for obvious reasons:
season one: bridle gossip, over a barrel,
season two: a friend in deed, putting your hood down, dragon quest,
season three: none i really hate? more neutral or positive feeling tbh
season four: three’s a crowd, trade ya
season five: slice of life (it’s just a bit too much, even for a guilty pleasure episode), party pooped, amending fences, brotherhood social, what about discord,
season six: newbie dash (this one is just plain mean), spice up your life (so bad it’s good. rarity is wildly out of character, the main antagonist is a straw man, and so on. kind of in a disbelief at how much this episode doesn’t work lol), stranger than fanfic and honestly every daring do episode, every little thing she does (not selling me on that redemption pony show!)
season seven: flurry of emotions, hard to say anything and really any fucking sugar belle/Big Mac episode, a royal problem (IT SHOULDVE BEEN TWIIILLGFIITHTHR FOAMING AT THE MOUTH THEY TOOK HER FUCKJNG EOISODE), fame and misfortune (“we’re REAL ponies” says the purple horse written by grown adults), once upon a zeppelin (far too mean of an episode for me), shadow play (for the crime of being boring)
season eight: school daze and school raze, fake it til you make it, the break up break down (hate these types of plots), a matter of principals, a rockhoof and a hard place,
season nine: a trivial pursuit, dragon dropped, a horse shoe-in, the ending of the end

if the smit gate is still open would LOVE to request some eddy/stede getting busy, I love them so much
(you got it! so this includes something I've wanted to touch on for a while. Eddy and Stede discuss words for Eddy's genitals in the middle of this.)
“Shhhhh,” Stede attempted to say while giggling. “Darling, if we get caught this is going to be very embarrassing.” 
“We won’t get caught,” Eddy said earnestly, also repressing a laugh. “Who’s going to catch us?” 
They were backstage on a quiet Monday morning. No one was due in for hours and they had really just come by to do some paperwork, but as often happened, Stede’s mood had shifted to align with Eddy’s and she was in a very giddy space. Probably the extra cup of coffee with breakfast and just a general good brain day.  Now they were smuggling in behind the thick red curtains after a swat at Eddy’s ass had her dragging Stede into the shadows. 
“I only meant to tease,” Stede kissed her neck. 
“Too bad. I play for keeps Mr. Teach-Bonnet.” 
“I know, I know, Mx. Teach-Bonnet. What kind of keeps would you like?” 
“I don’t know,” she licked her lips. “It’s a stage. Put on a good show for me.” 
“I can do that.” 
Stede didn’t take off her shirt, only slid his hands under it, rucking it up.  Her bralette today was lacy and he didn’t shove that out of the way either, just set his mouth on her nipple, using the sheer fabric against her as he raised a peak. 
“Ooooh,” she balanced on her good leg and wrapped the other behind his calves, drawing him in closer. The wall held her up, but it felt like the curtain in front of them was doing the work, a soft hammock of fabric enveloping her as Stede drove her slowly out of her mind. 
One of Stede’s hands caught her under the thigh, steadying her even as he worked at her other nipple.  She bucked against him, head tipping back and her hands claws on his shoulders. Then he dropped, gracefully, to his knees. There was one worshipping kiss to her stomach, then his hands were on her waistband, skimming down her loose pants. He didn’t take off her underwear either, the demon. He just leaned in and licked her right through them. 
“Fuuuuck,” her head almost cracked against the wall. “Stede...please love...” 
“Please what?” Stede glanced up at her with a grin. “What can I do for you? Do you want me to suck your cock or should I...” 
Eddy glanced down at him, waiting for the end of the sentence. It didn’t come. He was eyeing her speculative. Tentative. 
“What?” She sighed. “Are you having a seizure or something?” 
“No I...I was thinking. About something and I’m not sure how you’ll feel about it and I’m not sure it’s the time to ask.” 
“I will strangle you with my thighs,” Eddy groaned. “Why now?” 
“It’s germane.” 
“It’s germane,” she repeated flatly. “It’s germane to you sucking my cock?” 
“It’s germane to the other option.” 
“Fine. What.” The earlier heat was starting to ebb which was extremely annoying.  
“It’s only if you want it, but I was thinking,” Stede’s hands moved to cup ass, kneading a little. Some of the annoyance leached away. “That we never talked about what you might want to call all the bits of yourself these days. If you had any particular feelings about it.” 
“Cock is a cock,” Eddy shrugged. “Giving it a cute name isn’t going to change that. Not sure I want to.” 
“All right, I figured that because you use the word yourself, but,” Stede squeezed her ass again and damn that felt good. Maybe she could get herself off while he was yakking and idly groping her like he was determining the ripeness of a cantaloupe. “We could...” 
The unspoken idea finally arrived in her head. 
“But it’s not.” 
“Why not?” Stede asked gently. “If we decide it is, why not?” 
“I-” Eddy stared down at him. “But...” 
“We don’t have to, honey. We can go on using all the same words we did before. I just thought you might want it and hadn’t gotten around to asking yet.” 
“I hadn’t thought...” but she had. A little. In the privacy of her own mind where anything was allowed. But Stede was right, of course. Who elses business was it? They could do whatever they liked. There were no laws here. 
“Can we try it and I can see if I like it?” 
“Of course. If you don’t, we’ll go right back.” 
Eddy took a deep breath, expelled it, then she reached out to sink her fingers into his hair. 
“Stede?” 
“Mm?” 
“Lick my pussy.” 
He didn’t hesitate to shoved down her underwear. The angle was bad, she was hobbled by her clothes and he had to hold far too much of her weight to maintain it for very long. But he tongued her open so expertly, Eddy was beyond caring almost immediately. 
“Oh God, oh God,” she rocked against him. 
When he pulled away, she almost strangled him. 
“I may have taken one of the lube sachests from the bathroom,” he panted. “Can I fuck your pussy?” 
And that was so goddamn dirty for some reason that Eddy could’ve practically come from hearing it. She got both feet on the ground so she could turn around and bend over, practically tripping over her own pants. 
“If you don’t, I might actually cry,” she groaned. 
He didn’t mess around, sliding into her seconds later, so wet with lube, there was an audible wet thwack. She cried out into her arms and he pulled her tight to him. 
“Oh, fuck,” she moaned. “Please... baby, oh god fuck me hard. Make me scream.” 
Stede groaned, put his forehead to her shoulder and then he moved, short staccato thrusts that made her whine and claw up the wall half trying to get away half pushing herself harder against him. The wet slap of sound echoed over the stage. He reached around, palming her cock in time to his thrusts so all she had to do was keep herself upright. Surprisingly demanding at the moment. 
“You’re so tight, so wet,” Stede murmured into her ear. “I love fucking your pussy, gorgeous girl.” 
Eddy wailed and came in a body wracking shake that he held her through. Wrung out, she propped herself against the wall, aware of the hot throbbing length of him still inside of her. She clenched around him, grinning as he grunted in pleasure. 
“Go on.” she encouraged. 
“Not to twitchy, baby girl?” 
“Nah," she could've melted into the floor with that, "go ahead.” 
Stede didn’t take much longer and she loved how he came with the smallest whimper as if it hurt him to come to an end. Then he kissed her shoulder, over and over until he slipped from her. 
“What do you think?” He asked, staying where he was so she could keep her hiding her face. 
“I don’t know about all the time. Doesn’t really work day to day. But uh. Yes. During sex,” she decided. 
“All right,” Stede was clearly pleased with himself and she let him have it. He should be pleased. That had been hot as hell.  “I love you.” 
“I love you too,” she turned to him, pressing her forehead to his. “You want to go rinse out your mouth, I’ll clean the curtain.” 
“...that’s probably wise,” he conceded. 
They did get to the paperwork eventually. Well. Stede did. Eddy spaced out for the most part. He didn’t call her back,  humming his atonal hum instead, lulling her in the quiet.

Tumblr media
So let’s see how much of a train wreck the rest of the special is...
Tumblr media
We begin with basically all the negative energies created yesterday gone. They blame it on the stress but Swift Foot plans to continue to pick on it. That’s when we learn that there was apparently a 4th Tribe, forgotten by time and went off to do their own things with flapjacks and Dead by Daylight  Club Members. The leader of this Tribe, King Thrace, found an island and named it and his people after himself.
Tumblr media
So, Thracians are a real thing. I won’t go into details about it, but look it up yourself if you are curious. I’m going to just question the comic, like what makes this 4th Tribe any different from the other three? They look just like Earth Ponies. They have access to no magic. They don’t seem like creatures who can survive underwater. Like as far as this presents itself, it’s some jerk who wants stuff all to himself and doesn’t care for anyone else. 
Tumblr media
Swift Foot works to sow the seeds of doubt, like how Yona got two baskets instead of a cart. Luckily for the group, when an Orthos shows up Swift Foot accidentally gives her team the win. In the second challenge, she again sows doubt with the crew by making them do things on their own instead of the true purpose: working with the rest of the teams to create one good bridge. This time it works since everyone failed.
Tumblr media
It seems to be working as the Third Feat is upon them as the pressure and Swift Foot is getting to them. And the third feat is dealing with a Chimera. With all three things going on, it's definitely an uphill battle. So much so that Sandbar had to drag Ocellus out of her cage to get her to change into something to stop it. Seeing this, Swift Foot doesn’t understand since she’s working hard to get them to abandon each other but they continue to work together despite the negativity.
Tumblr media
Thanks to Ocellus, they win the Third Feat but as soon as they are in a private area, they begin to argue. This continues to the next issue as Fleet Foot begins second guessing herself as we flashback to before she arrived. Basically, with how they act I wonder how they even managed to live as long as they have if they were indeed a 4th Tribe. Her sisters and her father don’t seem to care about each other. I wouldn’t be surprised if any ruler didn’t just kill the previous to become the current ruler.
Tumblr media
And just as quickly as the arguing started, it ended as it was revealed Yona’s friends were learning how to speak Yak in private to surprise Yona. Everybody begins to apologize as Swift Foot is won over by the Magic of Friendship. And now united with Swift Foot fully on board the Friendship Express, they now have to complete the final feat: A Hydra. With a solid game plan and Ocellus making her own Hydra, they completed the final Feat in the fastest time. 
Tumblr media
All that gave them second place, as Swift Foot decides to leave them all with the idea that she’ll return home to convince them the Magic of Friendship and to Protect her friends. And we NEVER see her or Thrace again... Unless you play the Mobile Game where she comes back to get Starlight’s help to convince her father to accept Friendship. It doesn’t work as we last see King Diomedes double the troops’ drill because he feels something is up.
Tumblr media
Starting with the positive, the Artwork is great. Rarely does IDW not deliver on the artwork. It is nice to see more about the Student Six and them interacting with each other. It shows how tight this group is and no creature like Swift Foot was going to do any lasting damage. But the story overall was weak. Thrace has no real importance to the series or even this comic special. Swift Foot is a low rent Cozy Glow, complete with easily won over by the Power of Friendship. And the lore additions make no sense.
Tumblr media
How would I do this? Let’s say for starters, Swift Foot tries and fails harder than she does. Her tactics get shot down one after another. Silverstream points out how often the Ponies defeated threats before her people could hear about it. Yona clarifies this is normal Yak tongue (not yakkity yak as the IDW comics put it). How SUPER accommodating the School is for non-Ponies like Ocellus being freely able to transform when she wants to or Gems being plentiful.
Tumblr media
And instead of her slowly trying to pry them apart, she is slowly won over by the Power of Friendship to the point that she tells them her true intentions and how she doesn’t want to follow it anymore. To the point that she does the Magic Phone Call to her father to plea with him to not go through with his threat, only for him to renounce her and promise to return.
Tumblr media
Only for the Season 10 comics to begin with Blonn Di and Shining Light (Swift Foot’s twin sisters) to show up to give them a warning. There’s a big threat coming and the six creatures easily defeat the Thrace Kingdom. This will eventually lead to the idea of Twilight creating the Friendship Expeditions to go to these new locations to hopefully strengthen their defenses while building up the final threat of this series. But more on that when I get to the Season 10 comics.
Feats of Friendship was a year before they started on Season 10 so it could totally work.

so imma share the reason i’ve been on hiatus beccause its a fucking whirlwind of a story and i need to fucking vent
Background - for those who doon’t know I worked for michael mouse in florida on the pastry team for one of the parks. the kitchen i worked in was shared with culinary and pastry.
ok so story - 
so all of this started at the beginning of September. I went to a housewarming party for one of my bestfriends and her new apartment. It was me, 4 other pastry people. The friend who owned the apartment, her boyfriend, her brother, and 2 culinary guys i never met before. So the party's good were having a great fucking time, shooting shit. Then all of my friends start roasting me for the fact i drive like a cop. So i argue back, It’s not my fault yall drive slow and shitty. And were arguing and one of the culinary men pipes up and defends me and automatically i was like “SEE HE GETS IT HE UNDERSTANDS ALL OF YOU ARE Fake FRIENDS” after that the party was fine but i felt a spark with that man . After the party when I'm home in bed i text 2 of my friends like “is he single and what do you guys think?” and everyone was like omg yall would be cute there's definitely chemistry between yall. Skipping forward he sees me in the break room and talks to me quite often then he adds me on Facebook and he dms me and we start chatting. I find out he has a girlfriend.
 Time continues we talk every fufkcing day, he compliments me and then it starts turning flirty. (He still has a girlfriend still) Now i will admit. I flirted back, I said things i shouldn't have to a man in a relationship and that's my fault. I am not innocent. continuing though, me and this man talked about starring a family together and once he leaves his girlfriend he wants to court me (I have a 3 month rule i won't enter a relationship without dating for 3 months) . I fell in love with this man. I will not lie. but i was essentially an emotional side chick.
Skip forward to November early November i go to dinner with me, him, the friend who had the housewarming, her boyfriend, and the other culinary guy from the party. The whole dinner was good afterward he walked me to my car. At my car he tried to kiss me, i leaned away from him. Because i can’t kiss a man in a relationship but i can plan a family with one (stupid i know) fast forward to thanksgiving in America, the last Thursday of November. He tells me hes going to break up with his girlfriend FINALLY. So i am texting him the day after he was supposed to break up with her and turns out he didn’t and they were going to work on their relationship. That was my breaking point. I snapped, cussed him out and told him I’m not being a side chick. I’m Number 1 or im no one. Then i told him to tell her or someone else will. Then that night after work me and my friends are in the breakroom talking and my friend shows me this app called ‘yik yak’ which is an anonymous posting app to people within a certain perimeter. I knew that his girlfriend worked in the same park so i said fuck it and posted ‘hey so and so this guys cheating on you lol good luck’ she anonymously messages me and asks for proof and i tell her my name and where i worked and how long we had been talking. The next day i get a text from him saying ‘she broke up with m i hope your happy i don’t know if it was you who did it but congrats on getting what you wanted’ I replied ‘wasn't me but good for her’ i lied and continued on with my life. Proceeded to became an alcoholic for a bit to cope with the fact i fell in love with a man who had a girlf4reiend. For the rest of December im working and dealing with life and through all the people i know and talk to i hear about 2 other women he had supposedly been sleeping with at the same time he was talking to me and had a girlfriend. Then his ex girlfriend talks to one of my closest friends and spills everything about their relationship. Including the fact that she was previously 3 months pregnant with his baby. she miscarried (Side note she's 19 he’s 28) so hearing all of this I'm like wtf. Because the whole time from the time i knew him he said that they had only been together less than a month before we started talking so I'm baffled, I'm disgusted. Not only was he emotionally cheating with me, he was physically cheating with 2 other girls WHILE HIS GIRLFRIEND WAS PREGNANT!! So I'm angry I'm upset that i let myself be involved with such a person. Skip to the day after Christmas i get a merry Christmas i miss you text from him. My response was along the lines of ‘how funny it is you text me after i hear all of this shit’ he calls me that night and we get into an argument, he denies sleeping with the women but confirms her being pregnant at the time. we don't talk after that. 
January he comes back to the kitchen and i have a breakdown because that's the first time i had seen him since everything happened . He had be temporarily reassigned to another location for the slow season so mid November to January. I ended up getting drunk that night and messaging him just to say hi because he told someone he wouldn't talk to me unless i talked first to give him space. We continued to talk after that. 
So now, we still talk. Not as often and not nearly at the level of friendship we had before. I still deep down love him but i feel as if it wasn’t him i loved but a fake person because he lied so much so i can't believe anything he says. because i hold these feelings still i cant just block him and move on. However, i no longer work for the company due to an injury and am in the process of moving back to Michigan. I received a text from him telling me he was in a new relationship. I had suspicions about who it was because he told me in December he had been talking to someone. but today i got a text from a former friend of his now a FRIEND OF mine. She confirmed it was one of the girls he was sleeping with. None of this surprises me but i also got a text from him wanting to hang out next weekend. Mind you before this he insisted we don’t hang out because he didn’t think he could control himself around me (he told me this like 4 days ago) so.....
idk why i’m sharing its just been so much and i feel so much shame and guilt. I feel dumb for falling in love with a man that has a sex addiction, is an alcoholic and has anger issues. I’m mad i got blindsided with flowery words and i’m mad i continue to entertain someone who is literally the worst. I am such a bleeding heart that i have a very hard time blocking people or cutting them out of my life. I don’t want to hurt people. But at the same time i do want to be toxic asf and destroy his life. I plan on going to therapy once my move is complete because this situation has me so fucked up. I hope i can get to a point where i don’t want him in my life and i feel as if i am clse to that. I am starting to feel contempt for him and more disgust than anything. I am dealing with an injury and am already having to restart after losing my dream job over this so i’m dealing with alot and a stinky shitty man doesn’t need to be added to the list.

KNOWING YOUR PARTNER WELL CAN POTENTIALLY MAKE WRITING TOGETHER A LOT EASIER. ( REPOST DO NOT REBLOG ! )
Name: Sarah, but you can call me Phantom. I answer to both.
Pronouns: She/Her, but I’m cool with They/Them, too.
Preference of communication: IMs, asks, or discord! Discord’s easier for me to just yak away on when I’m on mobile, too!
Name of muse(s): I have way too many, to be honest.
 experience/how long (months/years?): Gonna show my age here, about 15 or 16 years? I started on Deviantart, when I was a very bored teenager, made some awesome friends, and hung around there for about 7 years, maybe? I remember being really depressed on... I want to say my 19th, and one of the mods in the room asked what was wrong. I told them it felt like my family had forgotten my birthday, and the next thing I knew, the entire chat was wishing me a happy birthday. It’s one of my fondest memories from that chat 💜
Fluff, angst, or smut: I lean more towards fluff and angst, mostly because I can’t make myself write smut. I’m way too ace for that shit 🤣 I don’t mind implying things or fading to black, just please don’t ask me to get descriptive!
Long or short replies: Honestly, sometimes the muse gets away from me and I’ll write a frickin’ novel, and sometimes they’re like, nope, don’t wanna, so I won’t write much at all. It very much depends on the thread.
 Are you like your muse(s): A bit? They all have facets of my personality, which may or may not be a bad thing.
tagged by Stolen from: @plightfated
tagging: Nobody! Steal it and have fun! 💜

Covid Came Calling
So it’s been a minute since I posted. Sorry about that, we were battling the plague.  We had a spectacular 4th of July weekend, Matt flew in from Minneapolis and the Edgewater gang drove over. The house was full of giggles and good food (I’m still dreaming of the German Bee Sting Cake that Jamie brought!).  The grandgirl spent time in her “mermaid lagoon” (blow-up pool) and even had fun at a little carnival before watching fireworks. I didn’t go to the carnival because I was still being super careful about crowds, coronavirus, and all that.  I still mask if I go into a store, we don’t dine inside restaurants, we’re vaxxed and boosted.  Couldn’t be more careful.  Guess who got COVID? Yep.  Matt tested positive, then three days later I did.  Mickey finally succumbed yesterday.  Ya’ know who is still negative? The three people who went to the carnival. We’re thinking it must have attached to Matt during his travels and of course we’ve been sitting in the house yakking and eating - so there you go.  We’ve been very, very fortunate with our symptoms (vaccines work!).  Matt has had mostly congestion and cough,  I had one rough night, maybe 12 hours where I felt rotten and feverish, and so far Mickey’s symptoms are very mild - he said he feels like he has a cold.  When I hear tales about people who felt awful for days, even weeks - I know we escaped the worst of it.  From what I’m reading, Omicron BA5 is what’s surging right now and is more immune evasive than other strains.   Here’s an interesting article. https://newatlas.com/health-wellbeing/does-ba5-cause-severe-disease-omicron-covid-ba2-study/ Because we had a doctor in the house, he recommended a course of Paxlovid which I’m sure played a huge part in keeping our symptoms from becoming severe.  It couldn’t have been easier.  There are “test to treat” sites in every state, you can call your primary care physician and let them know you’ve tested positive and they can call in a prescription, or you can use an online urgent care site which is what we did.  Matt handled everything and after filling out the information online (including a pic of our positive tests) we had the meds in about an hour.   https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2022/05/11/1097698090/3-ways-to-get-covid-pills-if-youve-just-tested-positive
As awful as I felt for that one night, I can’t imagine stringing that out over several days (or longer!).  If you test positive, get the pills.
Tumblr media
So that’s what’s been happening at our house.  After being meticulously careful since March of 2020, it finally found us.  On one hand, I’m ticked off.  On the other, I’m grateful that it happened at a time when we’re vaccinated and treatment is easy and widely available.  This particular variant, Omicron BA5, which is likely what we have, doesn’t provide the lengthy immunity that other strains do - doctors are seeing people reinfected within a month.  So, I’ll continue masking in public and try to keep it out of the house.  I don’t want to know what repeat bouts of it might do to the body.  Can’t be good. I hope you’ll all stay careful and safe, this stuff isn’t over and probably won’t be for a long, long time.  Take care of yourself because you are the sunshine in someone’s day.  You’re the one someone looks up to.  You’ve still got big dreams and things to do.  You still have books to read and trips to take and hugs to give.  You have years worth of laughter still bubbling around inside of you, waiting for a reason to come out.  Don’t be careless with all of that good stuff! Mask up. Stay safe, stay well, stick around. XOXO, Nancy

PRINCE RUTHERFORD
First Appearance: Green Lantern Apple Bloom (January 25 2023)
Dimension: GLAB Universe
Allegiance: Civilian
Prince Rutherford is the Current Prince of Yakyakistan. The Yaks are a proud race who always felt they could stand on their own hooves. But when Princess Celestia invited them to Canterlot to talk about reopening the borders to each other after a hundred years of it being closed. And thanks to Pinkie Pie, Prince Rutherford not only agreed to be friends with the ponies but considers Pinkie Pie an honorary Yak. She can be just as stubborn as they are.
When Celestia was looking for students for her School of Friendship, Prince Rutherford was the one who suggested it was Yona who went. And he respects the little pony who shows great strength. While he won’t say it out loud, Rutherford recognizes her as being Stronger than Yaks.

Current Version by AkumaTh
Fun Fact:
I didn’t originally think I was going to sprite him, but then I needed a comic with him and had to do it.
