Not gonna lie if I were the reader after they got replaced by YouTwo I would be a neurotic mess lmao. I already mental issues but I can't imagine going through their trauma on top of everything. I would definitely be scratching myself again out of sheer stress and anxiety about whether or not everybody will replace me again. My arms would look horrible. Oh boy imagine everybody's reaction to realizing they've messed up this badly and absolutely ruined the reader
Other people: fun ways we can write! Coffee shop au! Red string of fate! Hanahaki! Enemies to lovers!
me: what if I sat and tried to seriously and realistically contemplate the ramifications of a severely traumatic experience and the following neurotic habits that arise from the spiral down
Reader gets back to Spider Society, either glitching back in or "being rescued" whatever, and, you're just doing shit like digging food out of the trash "you'd never guess what kinds of perfectly good stuff people throw away, and it saves time to not have to wait for anything to be prepped! Never know when you'll vanish in the middle of a meal or that one serial killer will pop out at you again!! Ahaha!
Someone comes to check on you and you deadass have a fucking, tripwire web trap all around you, you're not even sleeping in a bed you're in your own webbing (because we rock organic webbing here because it fucks) so the second anything like, opens the door of your apartment or comes near you, you're instantly aware. Peter B comes in "heeeey, just wanna check in, make sure you're doing ok--" and there's fucking web wires rattling cans as he opens the front door and suddenly you're wide awake with an actual fucking knife or some kind of equally brutal survivalist weapon and it takes you a few seconds to fully snap out of it and let him calm you down and he has to tell Miguel You Are In Fact Not Doing Ok
You've got real "scaring all your loved ones and everyone around you" energy during those times you're just like going through some manic shit, opening your mouth and going on a sudden 'epiphany' like "i know what would help!! I'm gonna start cutting my face in really visible prominent places and that way you guys will know by the scar who I am :) and when it heals I'll cut myself again :) and again :) maybe I should just cut off a finger, how many of me do you think are missing fingers? Or maybe I could give myself a cool scar!!" And it's just like. What the fuck do they even say to that. A lot of them just genuinely could cry over this, seeing what this did to you. You sound genuinely cheerful at the realization and give no mind to how casually you just suggested self harm out of paranoia and self preservation.
You're just having like hard-core eating disorder issues going from overeating to undereating, binging because you're suffer9ng trauma from starving and then starving yourself "no its fasting, I'm FASTING to save food and money and resources, ok, I can only fit so much in my backpack and--"
You have this backpack from your multiversal glitching travels and keeping it with you basically 24/7 even when you go to the bathroom becomes a comfort habit, because, "never know when your camp has been found by the runners and you've gotta make a break for it" or some other cryptic memory you babble at them like you're discussing coffee when it could be one of the most vile horrifying things they've ever heard
I think the most interesting but tricky thing I've thought of is, what if Reader's trauma-humor coping mechanism gets dialed up to 11 and you can basically never turn it off because, your brain is protecting yourself. It's like you're Doing A Bit but literally all the time like some traumatized method actor and you're just, they're never sure if you're actually telling the truth or actually recounting things you experienced after a while
"Oh man the last time I ate a meal this big was when I finally stopped glitching and I had to break into someone's house and rob them for food! Just call me Santa Claus! But this Earth had suffered a nuclear fallout so all they had was like, DRY CRACKERS and, a lotta canned stuff, icky, and, I was in the middle of trying to pry a tin of lil cocktail weenies open with my teeth when the irradiated house centipedes smelled my blood, just imagine like a normal centipede but, like, the size of a Shetland pony, hey, friendship really IS magic right, and me and these centipedes got SO close, so anyways they smelled my blood, right, and it made them hungry, and--" and here you got like The Entire Squad speechless, Hobies just over here like "fuck, I don't even know what to say to that, you want some ketamine bruv" and yall just hit em with "nah last time I tried ketamine I had a fever dream of being replaced by an evil clone and I was shunned by all my close friends who i thought of like family. Oh wait, that was you guys! That's awkward!"

So I've been playing I Was a Teenage Exocolonist, letting it eat up my every waking thought, as one does. And while I've got a fic with some love for mama Flulu in the works, I've got a fun little AU in the back of my head as well, but I don't think I'll ever get to writing it. But it needs to be written out, so here you go.
Basically: what if ALL the Stratos kids, while Sol is still asleep from hitting their head during the crash, wake up and realize that they've got memories of (some of) the past timelines. BUT - they all think Sol is the only one who doesn't?
Marz is the first one to awaken to it - memories of the colony falling and, most importantly to her, Lum ruining them all. And she's not about to let that happen. But she also very quickly realizes that if she goes around telling people, bad things are probably going to happen. So she stays quiet and observant.
Which is how she notices that some of the other kids aren't quite acting like themselves. Tang and Dys suddenly spend time together again, both reaching out in their own awkward ways. Anemone clings to Kom even more than usual, Tammy worries and frets, but starts working harder to study and learn basic medicine, and Cal throws himself into biology and food production with an unprecedented vengeance. All trying to act like everything is normal.
In short, they're being very obvious that there's something up, but trying to hide it.
All except Sol. Nothing out of the ordinary seems to be happening with them - they're just an ordinary kid, doing ordinary kid things.
So Marz calls for a meeting between all the "in the know" kids, and outright tells them: "I have memories of past lives... and I think you all have, too".
Cue the lot of them starting to pool their memories and plan ahead for the future. The famine, the Shimmer, the Heliopause, and everything else. There must be a way for them to avoid all that pain and suffering, they just need to work together.
Most importantly: they need to protect Sol, because in all their memories, Sol is their ray of sunshine in human form. Too good for this world, too pure. And since they're the only one who doesn't know about what's coming (or so they think), they've got to make sure they stay safe.
It's a quest to save the colony and protect Sol's happiness, no matter what may happen. They've got 10 years to fix everything, they can do this.
Meanwhile, Sol absolutely has all of their memories of the past timelines. All of them. So why aren't the other kids noticing anything off about Sol? That would be because Sol learned real fast to not talk about past lives and not acting normal - because the one time they did, in what would be their "second playthrough", they got institutionalized. And they're not going to chance anything like that again.
This is essentially a Sol who's lived a lot of lives and is starting to get very tired of it all, to the point where they're just... going with the flow. Letting things happen. They go to school, help out where they can, try to enjoy life as it comes. Not seeking a specific goal or outcome. And if their friends are suddenly acting a little stranger, seeking them out more, being more active in a way? Well, maybe that's just this life's way of putting a spin on things.
And if, when the Heliopause arrives, Rex and Nomi-Nomi are even more friendly towards them and Vace is... still an asshole, but almost tempered by something (and steers clear of Nem outside of unavoidable interactions)? Well, that's just less to worry about and more hugs for them!
(Marz is quick to catch on, once again, and all three are accepted into the Save the Future Council soon after).
How will this new timeline end? With everyone working together, will the Colony rise or fall? When fate no longer rests upon one child's shoulders, how will everything change? I'll leave that up for you guys to speculate about.

This might be a shitty ask, so I understand if you don't, or can't!, really answer! I'm in AU, where it's an old farmer's trick to freerange peafowl to eat and scare off snakes. My aunt lives on a farm and she's started talking with great enthusiasm about getting peafowl. She doesn't intend to coop or contain them or have any infrastructure for them at all besides food and water bowls. Even if she had fences- which she doesn't- they wouldn't be more than ordinary wire fences. I've spoken pretty strongly against the idea of freeranging any animals on her property, including her chickens, but she doesn't listen to anyone, and other things (like noise) don't seem to be discouraging her. Other than worming and vaccinating them (which I'll be doing from my own pocket) is there anything at all that I can do to minimise the risk of death, harm, or improve QOL for these poor potential peas? Is there any quirk of training or pea mentality that I can use to keep them in a boundary or radius? If I build them a roost on top of a shed, are they likely to stay within a distance of it? (And yes, I haven't ruled out stealing them, giving them to someone responsible, and telling aunt a feral dog got them)
It's no trouble, and the good news is you won't have to tell your aunt a feral dog got them, because the birds will just leave. If she's that intent on flushing several hundred dollars down the toilet, maybe ask if you can have it instead, and skip the middle man of fussing with the peafowl. She's also welcome to send me the money if she is intent on giving it to someone with peafowl, the result will then mostly be the same! She loses a few hundred bucks and has no peafowl, and someone with peafowl gets a few hundred bucks! The key difference is no birds are harmed in this latter process.
Because here's the thing: your aunt IS 99% going to waste a lot of money purchasing peas and releasing them to free range without first containing them 6-12 months in a standard minimum coop (500 square feet)(and the rule any experienced peafowl owner will tell you is "never free range a bird you can't afford to lose" because even with extended containment first, peafowl often just fuck off when free ranged and they don't look back). They will just leave. it's literally the thing they are known for. I have gotten two free peafowl this year due to idiots near me doing this. Every year people in peafowl groups post about the free birds they just got, when people like your aunt bring them home and let them go. It's a little raffle where you win prizes donated by people who didn't do their research before buying peafowl, or who have more money than sense.
Additionally, even if they stay, they won't scare off snakes. Snakes don't give a shit. The peas will possibly harass or kill one if they see it first and there's a group of them to fuss with it. But in Australia, they are just as likely to die to a snake bite as any other fowl. They have PRETTY fast reflexes, but even in the US I see people lose peas to venomous snakes like rattlers or copperheads.
As for the rest, I don't know if there are any vaccinations that can be given to peafowl in Australia. I know there aren't in the US (I don't think even Marek's is made to be used in peafowl, but DO NOT get that one) because US policy on most fowl illness is to just cull the birds. You also can't effectively treat free range birds for parasites without SOMEWHERE to contain them, because most of the products go in the water and free range may find other sources of water, and the ones that don't you have to repeatedly catch the birds to administer orally.
So yeah. That sucks. Please tell her a peafowl breeder you spoke to thinks she's an idiot if she really thinks she's going to magically convince wild game birds to just hang out upon release with only the enticement of a food and water bowl to keep them around lol

How about:
In the STT AU (Sunny Time Town AU), how would Jack introducing MC to his family go?
I wanna see that! 🌸😃🌸
Ok HCs for now but I'm 100% doing a fic of this later. Seriously anon i LOVE Jack's parents & his sister, as you may be able to tell by the lwngth of this 😅.
Tumblr media
When he first told his family he was seeing Y/N they were all elated.
Especially considering he'd always talk about them since their first meeting so his feeling were pretty obvious, especially to Papa Rise.
After all he inherited many of his own ways of obsessing over loving his significant other from him so Rise knew the signs when he saw them.
Mama Shine dramatically lamented over her "baby boy" growing up to fast.
"Shine our son is a grown man with a house and a job." Rise will sign with a fond eyeroll.
Jane, who wasn't in town when he called and told her, could be heard stumbling over various items in her excitement.
But that pales in comparison to how happy they are when he says he plans on bringing them to dinner when Jane is in town next.
They'd been dating a few months already and it seemed like a good a time as any to him.
Shine is immediately thinking up a million different plans because it HAS to be perfect, it's her first impression on her future in law after all.
Jane, while not AS high energy as her mother, is also all aboard the hype train.
Meaning it's up to Rise to help reign his wife & daughter in to a more reasonable level.
"I know you're both excited but we don't wanna scare them off or make them uncomfortable".
He's by no means any less excuted but as a non-verbal person with a very vocal high energy family he knows that different people have different thresholds.
So the three compromise on the more reasonable idea of a relaxing game night.
It's something fun most people can enjoy and takes some of the pressure off of having to come up with conversation topics.
As for the food Rise is in charge of that full stop, he made sure to ask Jack for Y/N's favorites.
So with the activities and the meal planned out they all wait for the day circled on their calanders to approach.
When they finally meet Shine can't help but scoop them into a tight hug and exclaim how happy she is to finally meet them.
"Jacks told us so much about ya! You're more adorable in person, don't ya think so Rise?" she beamed at her husband with a smile exactly like her son's.
Luckily Jack told them how excited his family was so they were prepared for the energetic welcome.
By comparison Rise gives them a much calmer welcome before excusing himself to go finish dinner.
"Come ooon Jack you see them literally all the time, give the rest of us a turn." Jane pops up to their side and hooks her arm around theirs to drag them off to the living room.
Anyone else and he would've reacted quite negatively but this man absolutely LOVES his family and is just so happy things are going well.
"So wanna hear some embarrassing stories 'bout my baby brother? I've got tons." Jane teases looking back at Jack & their mother as the twi follow them.
And so they all started chatting over a few funny childhood stories.
Though Jack was mildly embarassed when his sister chimed in with "Bet you would've never guessed the big guy here was a crybaby wgen we were little huh?".
Not much time passed before Rise came back in to let them all know dinner was ready.
"I hope you like everything. Jack told me what you liked so i tried going off of what he told me." Rise signed as they all sat down.
Dinner consisted of much of the typical "meeting your child's partner" conversation.
Them asking Y/N about things like work, theur life and how they met.
Even though Jack most certainly told them most of it already they wanted to hear Y/N's perspective on things.
Once dinner they finished the returned to the living room for a few family favorite board games.
Teams would rotate with someone occasionally sitting out a round to play commentator "Ooh looks like Dad has to go straight to the clink.".
They all had a great time as the night wore on and Jack couldn't help the adoring look that came over his face.
He already knew he wanted to be with them forever but seeing them here, with his family, further cemented in his mind that they belonged together.
And he'd do whatever he needed to make sure they stayed that way, nobody would take his sunshine from him.

Can I request a letter from Erwin modern au where he writes how much he misses reader who has went abroad for a work related meeting and he congratulates her for cracking the deal with the client. Some NSFW also where he tells how he is waiting for reader to come home so he can f'ck and make love to her
Tumblr media
Letter contains NSFW material.
Read below the cut.
My darling wife,
You are truly incredible. I knew you would be successful with the client. You have gone above and beyond for our company and I am so proud of you. You are incredible with how you talk to potential clients, make them feel heard, cared for and it just reels them into our world.
This client was a big one for us. You've really opened some doors for our company. We're going to be able to help more people and reach out to more clients. I know he was a hard nut to crack, but you've perfectly handled him and the negotiations. You smart and beautiful little cookie.
While you were away, I do hope you had some time to enjoy the wonderful country. I know I wasn't there with you and you love exploring together, but just take a moment to yourself and explore. There are so many incredible things there and the history is so intriguing.
I feel selfish saying this after all the hard work you've done and how you got an incredible deal for us, but I deeply missed you. From the bottom of my heart, I missed you so much. You mean the world to me and you are my world. We're a team together and having part of that team missing was hard. Going to work without you was so quiet without our little chats and your singing. The bed was so cold and empty without you there next to me. Food was boring without your sweet company to share with.
I missed you. I miss you.
Having you gone made me realise just how much I need you. I love you, my darling. I love you so much. You are the love of my life. I can't wait to have you back in my arms. I can't wait to hold you and kiss you.
I have been thinking about you. I've been thinking about your beautiful body. I've been thinking about running my hands over your soft skin and placing delicate kissing on you. Dragging my tongue up the inside your leg before plunging deep into your delicious core. I want to drink your sweet honey. I want to feel you come undone around my tongue.
My darling, the things we'll do once I have tasted you. I'll enter you slowly so you can feel every inch of me. I want you to feel me. I want to feel you. We'll be connected through our love and remind each other of our love and dedication to each other. I'll start moving hard and fast. I will pound my feelings into you. I want you to know how much I love you. I'll remind you all night. I'll make sure you cum around my cock so many times you lose count.
After making you delirious with pleasure, I'll pour my cum into you. I'll stuff you so full that it leaks out a little. I want you to remember who you are with, who loves you, who can fuck you and who adores you. I'll hold you after, clean you and kiss you. We'll hold each other all night before I make love to you again. You are in for an all-night loving when you come home.
All my love, your dedicated and loving husband.
Erwin Smith

[Long Post] the rewritten zombie au post (part 1)
Tav Journal - Alpha
Sanity log 1:
Something happened a few days ago, we're not sure what to call it yet. People have gone mad, it's a miracle that all four of us made it off base alive. To be honest I'm not even really sure what went down. That's why im even starting this, so I can keep it all in order. I think I'd much prefer a verbal log, but with the way things have gone I think this is more logical since devices have limited storage and usually aren't water friendly. And in any case wilderness survival training in boot taught how to make string from plants, and I went down a rabit hole af few years back on how to make books from scratch, so I know how to do that. The only problem would be finding things to write with, but there's probably an easy solution.
I've never done this before, I'm not really sure where to start, but I guess the beginning would be good.
The beginning felt like ages ago to me, so I'm a bit hazy on the details. Ghost says we were in his room watching a movie (note: it might be good to start getting the others side of things too, not sure for what, but maybe it'll be useful later). And then I think we heard lots of noise, screaming maybe, or just a stampede perhaps, I know I definitely heard a gunshot. We opened the door to see what the hell was going on and ,honest to god, the halls were packed fulled than I've ever seen them, with a moving hoarde.
After that it gets much clearer. Kinda. Ghost pulled out a go bag from, I don't even know, and the knife he keeps under his bed. It was like he was prepared for something like this, he was so fast (though I suppose if you go through as much shit as he has then you learn to stay prepared, I guess). He pushed me us out the window, and then we were running into the woods. Well ghost was running to the woods, I was following ghost.
He shoved us down under the shrubbery and the just laid there for, I don't even know how long, but it must've been a quarter of the day easily. He started peaking his head up when the sun hit the tree line, at this point we still have no idea what's up with gaz and/or price. I think ghost had us wait another hour or two, until it really got dark, before we actually got up. And then we're apparently heading to the armory, remember, I'm still just following ghost at this point.
Ghost hands me one of the tac bags and tells me to load it with whatever ammo I could grab. The bags are meant to hold guns, so there's a lot of space to fill up. Honestly I hardly even looked at it all, I just started tossing stuff in. Ghost was filling up his own bag of whatever gun was compatible with the rounds I was grabbing. (Side note: the base is only allowed to keep a certain amount in the armory at a time, so I grabbed it all). He also, apparently, grabbed 2 sets of the combat knives, which he would hand later to me once we got off the base.
After that we went to the cafe, loaded up on food. I wonder if ghost knew what was actually happening or if he was working off of instinct? We got off base after that, Wandered until night fall. Wandered most of the next day as well. Ran into price and gaz as the sun was setting.
There's more to add. A lot more. Important details I skipped to get the main points down. But we're moving on early tomorrow morning, I took watch last night, so I need sleep tonight.
"Hit the hay, Johnny, we're moving gone as soon as the sun's up"
"Aye, right on it, LT. Don't get too borded without me." He gave the man a mock salute, to which he got an unimpressed look. He settled with his head on his arm and let his eyes fall shut.
If soap woke up in the morning a little earlier that price and gaz so he could cuddle with ghost... well that's neither here nor there.
"I think we're crossing the city today, so... you know... expect trouble." Ghost says quietly.
"Cans 'n' gum? Or something else?"
"Maybe pick up a bag or two. Gotta be extra careful though, I think price said he saw squatters when he was out scouting with with gaz yesterday."
"Zombies ghost. Brain eating zombies, like the dumb movies." Soap giggles.
"Fine. Zombies." Ghost humors him with an exasperated sigh at soap's antics.

🧃 ⇢ share some personal lore you never posted about before
Does personal lore mean it has to be about me?? I'm gonna assume yes?? I can't tell what this question wants. My personal lore is that I hated reading for most of my life. I mean more than 80% of my life. Ironic, I know. It's still incredibly difficult for me to pick up a book and just read! Somehow this did not transfer to fanfic. It's one of the few things I can read without getting fatigue.
🍄 ⇢ share a head canon for one of your favourite ships or pairing
Let's stick with good old Zack and Sephiroth for this one. I head Canon Zack is very good at brushing Sephiroth's hair. HOWEVER, in the wing AUs where Sephiroth's wing appears while he's still sane, Zack is garbage at preening. It takes too long! It's not intentional that he gets impatient and less and less careful. This has lead to tearing multiple chunks of feathers from brushing too fast.
The biggest problem is accidentally ripping a feather out from its root. Sephiroth's instincts kick in and he suddenly attacks the offender, no matter who it is. He only injures Zack once before having enough control to stop himself. Zack never holds it against him. It becomes a quiet night of the two being close until Sephiroth no longer feels overwhelming guilt for what he's done.
Sorry, got a little carried away. A well known bit of personal lore: everything I write becomes angst.
🍬 ⇢ post an unpopular opinion about a popular fandom character
Hojo is incredibly interesting. Yes the man is a complete sociopath, but I cannot deny the steps to his madness and how it grew throughout the game and fascinating to me.
I really don't have many unpopular opinions (at least not with the Tumblr crowd). Ships though? Different story.
🔪 ⇢ what's the weirdest topic you researched for a writing project?
So in The Last Straw, I came up with this completely bullshit idea: a child with a significantly higher concentration of Jenova cells cannot absorb any nutrients except meat based protein (or the lab made equivalent). This is based off the fact that Jenova in that world survives on the lifestreams of planets, and if you look at a food chain and think of the planet as one more link, Her species is Always a predator.
I realize now, after writing all of this, that the question does ask for backstory. Woops.
Anyway, I was trying to BS a name for this condition. Then I found the significantly less severe condition of malabsorption. On a surface level, it's a condition where the body does not absorb nutrients/absorb them properly. So because this was so different than anything else I've researched, it sticks out.
🪲 ⇢ add 50 words to your current wip and share the paragraph here
The blond landed on the vehicle and Strife swiftly removed the blade. Every second they wasted on this transition meant more firepower on the truck. Cloud grabbed the handlebars with his left hand and the Buster Sword with his right. Together they swept through Shinra's ground forces, men knocked off their vehicles and onto the unforgiving pavement.
🐝 ⇢ tag your biggest supporter(s) and say one nice thing about them
@altocat - always kind and let's me steal her ideas
@prismaticpichu - a font of kindness who always has a Fluffy idea cooking. Great when I need some joy.
@winter-doggo - his art always makes me smile. And he still leaves great comments on my fics despite my sudden lack of online interaction.
And you! Yes you, @shadowbanshee , because you're one of the only people that's left me asks like the ones I see for everyone else I follow. I still see likes for the "CC Sephiroth finds CCTV footage of Lucrecia" from December!
I'm not saying there aren't others. I just don't want this post to be any bigger lol. Know if I didn't mention you, I still appreciate you!

4402's zombie au notes and commentary
so obviously i started thinking about this au for this request but let me tell u! when it comes to big aus like these one of the best starting points for me is to think about the worldbuilding. which i guess always happens with me, but the thoughts i had on how the characters translate to an apocalypse setting plus not abiding by other media rules on zombies was simply too much to think about that couldn't get covered in that fic! so here u go! free brainrot material! obvious spoilers for that fic btw
i didn't want to tie myself down with the mechanics of zombies, esp ones we already know from other media like the walking dead or whatever. so a lot of the terminology here is vague. the "outbreak" can refer to an illness just as well as an infection or mutation or even an invasive species, but the important part is that it's highly contagious, kills, and then regenerates the body FAST once it comes in contact with blood
on that note. it is confirmed topical/parenteral contact with the zombie spreads the condition, but when reader tastes the blood on their face in the final scene, uh, bad news for them, oral administration/digestion would not end well
every character has a role in their party. shu is the brains (and was a lot more of a support than leader before the events of the fic), while luca is the brawn. vox and ike are doers- vox is an active presence and throws himself into danger, while ike stays behind and makes sure the little details run smoothly. mysta was the moral compass that made sure everyone's spirits were high enough to avoid conflict. and reader is an observer. they usually intake information faster than the rest of the crew, and know how to perceive when things aren't adding up
every character has a weapon, and i wanted these to be more unconventional ones to really hone in the apocalypse theme. i almost gave vox a machete but i figured that's only something rural homeowners would have on hand (i wanted everyone's origins to be vague so this fic is more relatable) and also, it's a little too on the nose, no? besides, using a rebar ripped from a broken building? that's metal as fuck
when i started the fic shu was entirely an improvised weapon guy. lots of disposable things. the molotov was a reference to his fire sorcery, and millwall bricks are made entirely from newspaper. as i continued i realized he needed something consistent, so he got a fire poker as another reference to his lore
luca is the only person with two weapons, a shotgun and a spiked bat. he's the muscle after all! i tried to veer away from lore bc obviously some luxiem would have a huge advantage if they had, say, demonology or curses available. but i will say it's probs canon he's been around the block at least, no comment on if he was actually a mafioso or not. either way. he's the only one there that really understands firearms and how to stay calm until you really need it, and the spiked bat is his default. it's brutal and easy to use
reader uses two climbing picks. i'm not totally sure why, but for the past few months i've been enamored with climbing picks as a weapon. watching the new puss and boots last month didn't help either. they're like sickles, but less difficult to use since they aren't as curved. and they're practical outside of a fight too! this is the important part about why reader uses them. they're observant. sure, there's more conventional weapons in the party, but the picks are multiuse, and can get you out of a pinch, like how you and vox scaled the townhouse to escape. total bummer you were trapped underground, though
ike... okay. i'm not immune to eki. and it's just that he pairs so well with knives, no matter how hard i tried i always came back to them! more specifically how he has a set, not just one. the others don't come into play but he has a full set of kitchen knives- the others, he meticulously cleans and uses when preparing food or shelter. the largest chef's knife is dedicated for zombie slaying, and the cleaver can cut through bone. you have to use force to use a cleaver correctly. it's impractical for when a zomb's in your face, but give him the time and he can confirm none of them rise again. one of the may ways he stays in the background and makes sure everything is going to plan even when his assistance isn't really flashy
i never wrote him using it but mysta had a woodcutter's hatchet. he also chose his weapon for practicality like reader and ike. however, if you know anything about realistic axe fighting, it's that woodcutter axes are wildly different from fighting axes. the former is extremely heavy while the other is light. once you swing with a woodcutter's hatchet you can't stop. he was looking for a lighter alternative before the townhouse incident, like a proper weapon or a fireman's hatchet, but. well. um
mysta himself is more of a concept than a character in this fic. he definitely had a presence in the party before the events but there's a reason he never had any dialogue. he represents the morale of the party just as much as he does the unreachable sun. "because mysta died" is an unspoken motivation for just about everything the characters do in this fic, and his name becomes synonymous with a peaceful afterlife after hell on earth. when the characters can't even utter his name, it's because that peace is so far away they can't possibly fathom it
the luxiem + reader dynamic was way more lighthearted before mysta's death. it wasn't all joy, because hello, zompocalypse! but it was enough. his death is what kickstarts the animosity, as well as the trauma responses of the rest of the guys. ike's is mentioned by reader a few times and shu's grief is a source of tension but the rest of luxiem wasn't as focused on
vox is characterized with this heroic, "it's up to me to make things right" type of savior complex. mysta's death is the first time things have gone so horribly wrong, and the way that he sees it is like, "i watched him get swarmed, and if i could watch him then i could've ran and fought. my inaction is the reason why he died". even the way he breaks the news to shu and the gang is presentational because he detaches himself from reality for this whole hero thing, even though he doesn't recognize it himself. he's very dramatic. but he also deflects emotion in pursuit of action, like telling shu to set the townhouse on fire, and ignoring reader's concern over him. his last action is attempting to save reader and ike even when he knows there's nothing he can do, and all he has to show for it is his hand getting crushed by a piece of rubble that falls on it
i am VERY PROUD of how i wrote luca. which is to say i didn't write him at all. his characterization is invisible and that's what makes me so happy about it! i feel awful for him them most out of anyone here! vox witnessed mysta get swallowed up by the horde but luca was there with mysta the entire time, and when mysta sacrificed himself so luca can live, luca froze in shock and fear. he never gets over that moment. and luxiem doesn't mean to exclude him, but they're so worried over shu's meltdown and what to do next and this and that to read how mixed all his feelings are on it. vox is fixated on protecting him, and when he's in shock ike hides luca's vision so he's the only one that doesn't see mysta's silhouette in the townhouse before it goes up in flames. i... don't want to give away the answer, i'm sure rereading will identify it, but there's this one line of dialogue that sums up everything he's going through perfectly, and even reader the observer doesn't notice it like how he wants it to be noticed. my heart bleeds for him. when the ceiling collapses reader is struck by how he freezes, and it's a reprise of mysta's death for him. he's not getting over that either. after all he's the muscle but what good is muscle if it can't move?
shu,,,,,, if there's anything that i can say it's that he's not trying to be the villain. he had to mercy kill his brother in one of the most brutal ways imaginable, and then had to speedrun the five stages of grief because someone needs to lead this team. vox tries to lead just as much as shu does, but luca makes a good point. i don't think shu hates them at all. he's a very mama-bear type of character. he has a clear vision in mind of what he wants the path to look like, and anything outside of his vision is uncertain and thus dangerous. but luca makes a good point, and how malicious it's intended to be, i can't say, but he shuts down vox and luca a lot. he would never admit it during the events of the fic but there is a very ugly, very cavernous part of his soul that wants to blame someone, plural
so reader and ike are dead right. those two were the most mentally healthy(?) of the group, or at least, the ones that could help the group manage stress the best. now all that's left is vox, who hates himself for failing to save his friends three times now; shu, who already wasn't taking mysta's death well and certainly isn't going to do any better with the latest casualties; and luca, who everyone wants to protect and no one wants to listen to, and can barely get a word in between shu and vox's fights, and knows he doesn't have the instinct to act when it matters. i wish i had the clarity of mind to see and write their travel together. two of them were already at each other's throats, and the third is about ready to snap. i wish i could tell you how they destroy one another
there were so many points in this fic where i had to ask myself, am i going too far? this happens often, especially with angst, especially with romantic x readers. sometimes i wish i could describe ugliness! snot from crying and screaming so hard you retch in chunks, contortion, all that noise! when i get an opportunity to describe gore i fuckin' take it because that's pretty grody but in a hot bloodshed way. lots of other nastiness isn't very attractive, though, and the point of romantic x readers is to be attractive. so these "should i take a step back" moments really come in through with shu's breakdown, which was written to be as visceral and scathing and uncomfortable as possible. in early-early planning mysta was originally intended to been bitten and turned as you would expect, but the fire was added to it promptly to continue the plot- and when i wrote it, i felt so awful, it was such a brutal way to go out. that's when i figured i just need to commit to the thought, make things feel raw and tangible instead of manicured, and that i'd just be generous with tags. i'm very glad i stayed committed. even though i had to take so many mini breaks in ike's final moments to just look up and mutter to myself "man i'm so fucked up for this one". i'm also very glad that i knew reader would've blacked out and repressed the memory of killing ike, because i did say earlier, cleavers cut through bone. i love a good bloodfest but i think i gotta draw the very-far-away line at ike's head split apart, hotdog not hamburger

hello lovely :) for the fanfic ask game: A, G [there’s a science to walking through windows without you], L, and W! hope youre having an excellent Saturday <3
thanks friend and back atcha!! it's been a nice chill day over here - finally got the sleep i've been needing for four weeks, the sun is shining, i cleaned up the place, there's a window open in every room :) and after this i'll pick up ballad of songbirds etc - i just got to the start of the games.
A: Of the fanfic you’ve written, which is your favorite and why?
probably reprise - i still remember the excitement of starting it and feeling out what it might be. i loved being in hero's head, i enjoyed refashioning canon into something new but recognizable, the language came together the way i wanted it to, and it's the happy ending i would choose for them over any other.
G: If you wrote a sequel to [there's a science], what would it be about?
very little conflict - i think the main source of conflict between them in the og is that they're always trying to tell each other the truth but never say it in a way that the other hears correctly. so now they're on the same page, and he finally has her and he's not stupid enough to jeopardize it with his pomp and circumstance. it would probably begin with both of them in a bit of shock - they didn't see this coming and are completely rerouting from where they thought they were going, and they have to figure out how to be together - but they're ridiculously happy. they fall in love quickly and intensely and without much fanfare - they're not shouting it from the rooftops but anyone who looks at them can see it. they figure out how to do life together. eliza gets a job and it's not a good fit. higgins wants a career change but is uncertain about leaving a tenured position. they don't always know how to help each other get what they want. they say the wrong things. they work hard, together, to learn how to communicate. one night he gives her a ring. they consider eloping but decide to have a huge party instead, and it's joy-packed. she drags him to new restaurants and he grumbles about unknown foods but always ends up liking them. they learn together how to cook and get so into it that they start reading cookbooks in bed. they get a dog. they have a miscarriage - they grieve differently, he isolates himself, she buries herself in her work. they move to the opposite side of the country. pickering gets cancer - it's bad, takes him fast - they grieve together this time. it's about two selfish people learning that love is selfless and discovering the joy of giving and receiving that love, and about the importance of keeping themselves vulnerable when they want to close up and hide, and figuring out how to consistently give themselves to each other while still being able to grow and change individually.
L: Which of your fanfics was the most emotionally challenging to write?
after the storm was like a constant state of soul excoriation. we only have each other was my take on elsa's uncontrolled emotions, and the resolution to the major conflict drew from personal experience, so needless to say writing it was a rollercoaster.
W: What is your favorite pairing to write? Favorite pairing to read?
when actually writing: eliza/higgins are probably the most fun to hang with. for both: i'm pretty much always here for snark/sunshine, whoever that may be. severus/hermione is one of my go-tos d/t the trope and it's popular enough that there's usually always something new to read. my WIP folder is positively bursting with villain/sweetheart AUs, mostly in the form of hero/john ♡

Weekly check in with stardust
i have been creating a lot of stuff and im nearly done with my online science course and should be done by the end of this week!
the other week was eid and ur girlie made sweets, dressed up, visited a friend, and made Mario Lego B) I also got stickers for my laptop but that's unrelated lol
also we made bakhlawa and makrout they are literally my favorites lol, even the people at my friends party seemed to really like them too lol
apparently I look really good in olive green so that's like also a major win for me
the stickers are like vintage looking florals ones lol
btw I've been working so much on my four swords DND au, I'm not sure what to call It tho? I was thinking like "Four Keys" because the swords are literally keys to a secret realm or whatever
btw have u had any good recipes recently? Im fasting just because I can and rn I'm just thinking about food lol
i made a fajita tonight using colored peppers too lol
if u have any good recipes please tell me I love hoarding them
btw, I have one character left with enough space for an additional trauma/mental issue on my roster for the au so honestly just send me a few different ideas for them and I'll probably choose one lol
btw the dudes got the thickest Russian accent, is very brutally honest, soft and gruff, non nonsense and needs to adopt every small thing in sight or else he will die because this is how he's coping.
he was stuck in like an iceberg for like 200 years (there's a wholes Tory behind that) and then we he emerged (thats also a story) everyone he knew is kinda super dead because of the passage of time
*someone saying something stupid*
"Your voice, very ugly, please, do the shut up :] "
thats him in a nutshell^
also remember to do wrist and finger stretches for writers and artists
also I acquired a glass orb with glass art inside <3 o r b
also what's legend's irrational fear?
also I love legend being like, an actual good influence on wind in his own weird way
i want them to bond more, maybe do a whole stealing heist from some knights-
im not asking u t write it but I just wanted to share lol
i hope you've been doing well, u seem to be lol
also do u like wearing jewelry? and if so how often lol
Wow, that's a wall! (pos)
I'm glad you got to enjoy some nice food, time with friends, and dressing up! Also, it sounds like you're having a ton of fun creating recently! I am as well, but it's slow going as I'm working on a multi-chap that's very demanding about where and what is supposed to happen (I did this to myself but the results are fantastic!)
"Four Keys" sounds like it has great potential as a title! I like it! I also love the Russian accent. the character is giving slight Captain America vibes, but only for backstory, and I love the concept so much!
As for a irrational fear..... ma am I bad at those I rationalize anything so... maybe large empty spaces? Usually those are indicative of a boss fight in his mind, so just having one that isn't hiding some threat throws him way off. He's also insanely wary of any room with a tiled floor. Because >:)
I also love him and Wind! The fact that they're both on the younger side here but also both accustomed to being the person others look to gives great opportunities for them to bond and interact. Legend has a lot of experience to share but he's also not up on a pedestal like Time or Warriors is, so there's more opportunity for direct communication and less a need to impress. (I actually just finished writing something with them, as it happens!)
I'm honestly not the best baker in the world, or cook in general (I'm still building up my recipe book after leaving my parent's house) but I can share my mum's bread recipe! It's very good, for every day, or to make into rolls for the holidays and with nice meals!
Recipe makes 4 large loaves btw
Dissolve 2 packages of dried yeast into 4 cups of warm water.
In a separate bowl, mix 1/2 cup soft butter with 1/2 cup of honey (you can also add 1/4 cup of molasses for super dense rolls/loaves).
Once the honey-butter is combined, add the yeast water to the bowl
Scoop in 6 cups of whole wheat flour + 4 cups white flour.
Mix, knead, and set into greased bread-pans, or roll into balls on a cookie sheet.
Bake loaves for 35-40 min at 375 F, or rolls for 10-15 min at the same.
After you remove it from the oven, brush generously with butter before they cool, for extra flavor and to preserve moistness.
Hope this one makes you happy! It's great to use in sandwiches, serve with soup, or eat with jam, or alone!

I was tagged by @bookwhimses to post a snippet of my WIP! I have just OH so many to choose from, none of 'em progressing particularly fast atm, but freshest on my mind seems to be the Sandman so we'll go with that ^^
I'm tagging @kieren-fucking-walker @firstaudrina @girl-bateman @evilphrog @kelpiemomma @excellentcollectionofwords @victorluvsalice and anyone else who has a WIP they're just dying to share with the class ^^
Anyway, this is from the Sandman fic that keeps kinda bubbling away in my mind, which is sort of a semi-AU based on the Fanily of Blood/Human Nature Doctor Who episodes. The 'Daniel' in this snippet is a Dream without his memories, living a constructed human life. I know his human name being Daniel has potential to be confusing, what with Daniel Hall also being a thing, but none of the other names I've played with have really felt right!
Food prepared and a modest glass of wine on the side, Daniel sinks happily into his sofa and once more loses himself in the story, one earbud removed so that the sound of his own chewing doesn't echo thunderously in his skull. The TV sits unused, as it often does. Later on, when he has to drag his attention from stories into grading, he'll replace the audiobook with music. Something else to fill the silence; it always gets so heavy around this time in the evening. He plants his feet on the cushions, tucking his knees up—and lifts his plate to his chin when the cat pounces for her spot in his lap. Silent, assured, her chattering done now that food has been acquired, segueing with ease into the quiet, comfortable routine of the night.
Daniel doesn’t give that silence opportunity to take hold, notching up the volume and listening well as talented young author Miss Walker guides him through her bittersweet debut tale.
Silence has never sat well with Daniel. Unfortunate, since he seems often to be surrounded by it. It’s not that he’s a shut-in, or a hermit; he has friends, thank you very much. He goes out, he has visitors. He dances in clubs where the music is so loud it reverborates in his ribs, he laughs over cups of coffee when the sun rises and pints of beer when it sets. He has in depth conversations with his friends, his colleagues, his students. He listens to the hum of conversation as he prepares a meal for his guests he promises will knock their socks off. He even, on occasion, shares clandestine whispers with semi-strangers, charms them, beckons them into his home and fills his quiet little flat with sounds of pleasure until all involved can only fall into satiated sleep. He lives a life in the sounds of others, and relishes it.
But eventually, everyone must go to their own home. Eventually people go to work, to their families, to wherever they were before they picked each other up for a night of fun. And Daniel, for all that his alone time is important to him and his work, has never quite got to grips with the silence. He fills it in any way he can. With stories, with podcasts, with music, with ambient noise. Sometimes just with his own voice, and conversations with his cat. Why, he can’t possibly say. Something to do with his youth, perhaps. The days of childhood feel far away much of the time, memories tinted sepia. He was a happy child, so far as he can tell. From a happy home.
But somewhere in that past, in a place he can never quite reach; there was silence.
No, he doesn’t like silence. Not one bit.
As the story winds to a close and the plate lies picked clean, he makes an indulgent decision. He sets his paperwork aside for a few minutes—he’s not tired, so there’ll be plenty of time for it later—and reaches for his notebook instead. On his phone he clicks past his usual selection of narrative folk to his other vice, the rambling trip-hop mix that makes his brain jump in interesting ways without filling it with any words that aren’t his own. As dreamy synths and erratic beats fill his ears in chorus to the soft snores of his feline companion, he takes up his pen, and opens his notebook.
A trickle of sand bleeds from the crease of the pages.
Daniel rolls his eyes, shaking the irritating grains out onto the empty plate on the side table. How one little trip to Brighton six months ago could leave it’s impression so thoroughly, he would never know.
Sand decanted, he turns to the next page with blank space, mind already turning over what he wants to spill onto the page. It was nice, actually, talking out loud about his dreams earlier, however brief and impersonal his chats with Robert tend to be. The image feels sharper in his mind, the impressions of his characters tripping off the pen nib as he sketches them into being, as he takes what little snippets of story he can remember and scribbles them into rudimentary shapes. The impressions of his Dream Lord, that strange and lonely creature in his palace of glass and stone.

Hey! I haven been on tumblr for a while but I saw you have a new AU! The super soldier one! I apologize if you have already write about this o have answers this question,my brain sometimes forget things that I have read: what’s Jay first reaction about learning about the super soldier program and what happened to mouse? I know you said that he became mouse handler because he wanted to help, and of course he would do anything for mouse but I’m curious about jay’s feeling the more he learns about the program and how it affected mouse, since he was again Mouse leaving to the army again in the first place?
I really love reading about all the ideas you have. I usually don’t interact much because I’m shy but when I read your post it’s always great! 💜
Fun fact: the original moodboards for this AU were posted in September 2021. this is not a "new" AU, just one that decided to give me feels this week out of nowhere. I've just been lucky enough that other people are feeling things about it too and asking questions 💜
I haven't gotten to talk about Jay's side of this at all, actually! A lot of my thoughts are based on Mouse's experiences, things that happened to him, and therefore he feels the most direct result of it all. But having all of this happen around Jay instead of to him doesn't mean he's not affected, you know?
Jay's first reaction was when he was taken and had to be rescued. He had a concussion, he was probably minutes away from dying of a gunshot wound if Mouse hadn't shown up when he did. His first reaction to seeing Mouse there was confusion underneath so much relief that he was safe and not alone anymore. His friend was there, and they were both going to be okay, and that was all he cared about. But when he finds out the details of it all...
It's in the hospital, once he's bandaged up and being made to rest and clinging to Mouse's sleeve so he can't go anywhere (he doesn't care if Mouse has to go to the bathroom, he's still shaken up, the call of nature can wait a few more minutes), and he knows he has to ask. Mouse isn't going to tell him the details without prompting, he knows that, and he might not even get real answers out of it regardless, but he still has to ask. He has to ask what happened and all the other little questions that only get him half truths. He has to ask what the hell Mouse did and how he got in and why no one else was there for backup and why he didn't need their back up.
And it kind of feels like a joke? Because it's so ridiculous. Yeah, the government does shady shit, they know that, but super soldiers aren't real. They don't experiment on people, and they especially don't create the perfect soldier and then throw him back to Chicago like he's a fish on a line that's too small to cook.
But they do. And they did. And it happened to his best friend.
So he finds out about it when he's hurt and tired and just wants his friend there. He doesn't get more detail than that at first because he's really not up to it. That all comes when he's healed up and home and none of his injuries are life threatening anymore.
Jay invites Mouse over to dinner, just the two of them, and they eat greasy delivered fast food burgers and cold fries on the couch and just talk. He gets to(?) hear all about the experiments, or what Mouse remembers about them, the vitamins that weren't vitamins, the vague details of missions that aren't so classified they'd be killed for discussing it... and it sucks. It all sucks. It sounds awful. It sounds like torture. Sending Mouse back to Chicago alone with no way to manage things sounds worst of all. So he wants to help.
He'll keep the secret while they dig into it, and at the start, the only reason they want to dig into government files (and potentially hack another government satellite oops) is to reverse it. It's made very clear to him that Mouse wishes his life was still normal, or that it could go back to the way it was, and that's what Jay wants. He wants to fix it, find a cure, whatever anyone wants to call it. He wants to help.
Like I said, becoming Mouse's Handler was an accident. He didn't set out to help guide his friend through this situation he shouldn't even be in (maybe if Jay had fought harder, he could have convinced him to stay in Chicago in the first place. maybe if he'd been better, Mouse wouldn't have reenlisted at all. maybe if he knew the other reasons for it, he could have fixed things before they got so bad that Mouse didn't see another option), and eventually, with a certain topic of conversation (something something Mouse definitely not sharing his feelings in this AU because he sees the cause and effect he knows Jay will just feel guilty, but they spend a night together after researching just next to each other in Jay's bed, and he's half asleep when he realizes that his best friend is just as blind and oblivious as always and god, wouldn't it be easier if he just said it? if he just blurted out that he's always wanted to spend a night in Jay's bed not as Just Friends but he knew that was never an option? if he just yelled loud enough for Jay to get it through his head that yes, the experiments and the program were awful, but it only hurt half as much as watching him be happy and start to settle down with someone else-), Jay does come to the conclusion that at least some of the blame for this is on him. But not all of it. The vast majority is on the people who did this to innocent soldiers, people who just wanted to do something good for their country, who had no say in what they were participating in from mission to mission.
But there is no fix. There's no cure. There is no ctrl+z on this. And Jay has to watch his best friend, someone he loves, suffer through something completely unimaginable every single day. He has to watch someone he cares about go through this awful thing, be so afraid of his own self that he starts to lose sense of it. And it's so much worse than if Mouse had just died overseas, because at least there's a start and an end to that kind of thing. It's final. It's one loss that may haunt him forever but at least he doesn't have to watch it over and over again.
Instead, he has to lose his friend piece by piece, and there's absolutely nothing he can do about it.

I'm new to being a eggman simp and your casino eggman is gorgeous! How did he and boom eggman met?
Ahfjfsbsngmsnsgh thank you so much!! It really means a lot that you like my special boy! And I appreciate the interest in the Casino Boom pairing, it's very special to me too and I love talking about them 🥰💜
Boom Eggman and Casino AU Eggman actually first met thanks to modern Eggman! They're two of the few versions modern met separately while dimension hopping here and there over the years. He knew Casino Egg for a few years before Boom, they're very close and had a bit of a thing going on but it was mostly casual fun at first that was a benefit to them also being partners in crime. Although they always have to part eventually to keep living in their own worlds, modern and Casino Egg always find time to meet up, catch up, hang out, and mess around whenever they can. Modern also met Boom Egg a few years later and became the same way with him after getting to know him. But those are two different stories and I've shared a bit of both already, though I may go into more detail in future posts.
So when modern Eggman met up with Casino Egg again for the first time since meeting Boom, he was sure to tell him all about him when catching up. Casino Egg immediately took interest in the way he described Boom's good looks and all the fun things they got up to, including trying and loving the food he made for him with his now skilled cooking/baking abilities after getting into it as a hobby. He could tell how much modern loved spending time with him and trying his food by his enthusiasm and joy in recalling it. He was interested in meeting him and seeing and experiencing it for himself.
Modern already had a thing for both of them (they know and are okay with him having multiple bfs) and loved the idea of them meeting each other, so he was delighted by Casino Egg's interest in meeting Boom as a way to bring them together. He definitely felt they would be each other's type too, since he's a lot like Casino Egg and they both love men like Boom. So he decides to bring him with him the next time he visits Boom's world to surprise him, only telling him he's going to bring a "friend" of his that's very similar to him, so he thinks he'll like him a lot. Boom had no idea that he was going to introduce him to another counterpart.
Boom Eggman is very surprised when the door to his lair opens to two Eggmen! Casino Egg immediately grabs all of his attention and stuns him with his bright pink and purple outfit and shiny jewelry and of course his size, as he was about 100+ lbs heavier than modern Eggman when they met. He's a very big guy and modern already made him feel small! So he also found it a little intimidating at first, like he did when he met modern. Casino Egg is also the same height as modern, so Boom being shorter has to look upwards to him too when he steps inside!
Modern told Casino Egg that they can't smoke around Boom and despite usually complaining, he's respectful and makes sure he brings plenty of lollipops for his oral fixation instead. Casino Egg spreads his arms wide to offer a bear hug, his favorite way to greet. Boom tries to hide his shyness and accepts. He smells like strawberries and he's so warm and soft! He blushes hard, especially with how his height results in his face being pushed against Casino Egg's hairy chest with his partially unbuttoned shirt, between his beautiful squishy man titties hehe 💜
He blushes even harder when Casino Egg says "The other Ivo is right, you are very handsome~" And his wide bright white smile and one shiny golden tooth makes his heart flutter. He's just so charming and his handsomeness, bright and bold sense of style, and lovable entertaining personality had him fascinated and hooked fast. Casino Egg finds Boom handsome, adorable, and funny and can tell he's a little shy and trying very hard to hide it but that just adds to the cuteness for him. He thinks it's fascinating to meet a much smaller and lighter counterpart and he always loves being the bigger man. He immediately checks him out and becomes very fascinated with him.
After he showed Casino Egg around the lair and he made a few suggestions, such as trying to give him money for a much bigger bed that could fit the three of them, Boom then offered his cooking to Casino Egg, so he could try what modern has been telling him all about for himself! Modern tells Boom what food Casino Egg enjoys most and he uses that to prepare something nice for him that he hopes will be up to his standards. He's nervous but is sure to make his very best first impression. He's delighted by the reaction of Casino Egg's mouth watering at the sight and loving the taste even more. He understands why modern praised it and can tell how much love he puts into his cooking. His baking skills are proven just as great when he makes him a wonderful dessert with strawberries involved!
He loved it so much that he wanted to give him an extra special reward so after thanking him. So he told him to come closer and quickly leaned in and gave him a sweet kiss on the cheek to show how just how grateful he was as he told him it was delicious. It was just a little friendly gesture that he does with a lot of people but it got Boom Eggman's heart racing. He didn't think of his reaction being because of attraction yet, he told himself it was just because it was shockingly unexpected. But he liked it and it made him feel all warm inside and extra proud of himself for doing a great job and pleasing him. And while he didn't admit it even to himself at first, he also found himself wanting to make him more, not only in hopes of further impressing him but also getting more kisses too. ;)
Casino Egg was already openly affectionate and flirtatious with him right off the bat like he is with everyone as it's just his nature nowadays. But he began to realize that it feels different with Boom. He really likes making him smile and laugh and feel special. He calls him pet names with some relating to his smaller size and height and finds a way to involve them every couple of sentences, as if it would kill him not to. XD Boom even becomes the only one that he's ever called "sugar" despite it being one of his favorite things and pet names, so it's really saying something when it becomes the most special one used just for him. He also comes up with names that are strawberry related and a bunch of other things he loves most.
Over time they got even closer, their hugs while standing or on the couch turned into cuddles and spooning in bed and Casino Egg started to call himself Boom's big teddy bear. Kisses on the cheeks became kisses on the lips, their flirting became more serious and Casino Egg loves how much Boom blushes at all the super sweet things he says, making it feel extra special. He enjoys being the second taste tester of Boom's cooking and baking alongside modern and always looks forward to the next meal he prepares for him, from breakfast to dinner while staying at his lair. The way to his heart is through his stomach, he feels so loved and cared for by him, and they have so much fun together. He can't help but fall harder for him everyday.
Modern could already tell they were definitely going to love each other a lot as they're perfectly compatible with each other in every way and he was very happy to be proven correct as he saw the way they acted around each other and how close they became over time. They didn't leave him out though, they were always sure to let him join in whenever he would walk in on them cuddling or kissing and he'd playfully tut and say "hey, where are my cuddles and kisses?" For once in their lives, well modern and Casino Egg's in particular, they all see others as equal because they're the equivalents of themselves in other worlds. So they give each other the same amount of love, praise, and support they give themselves as a result!
Much like with modern, it ends up going further than casual fun with Casino Egg and Boom too when they realize there's deeper feelings. So eventually one asks the other if they can be boyfriends! I haven't decided who, it could go cute either way. And then modern decided to call them both his boyfriends too. Casino Egg takes both to his world and casinos in Empire City and Vegas, his clubs, mansions, Chao Gardens, cruise ship, and anywhere else they want to go. He loves spoiling them and their love grows stronger the more they bond. That's how Casino Egg and Boom ended up like this! I've also shared a lot of other cute concepts of them throughout my Casino AU tag too and plan to share much more. 💜
Boom now has two bigger, taller, and older bear boyfriends and loves it! Casino Egg loves both of his boys equally but I really like to make him as obsessed with Boom like he's both a lover and fan like I am with modern Eggman, it's funny and cute and a lot of fun to write. All three like to go to cool places and have fun but gray aro Casino Egg is down to do some of the more romantic considered things with Boom that aro modern isn't very into himself. Boom likes getting to do those things with one of his bfs but doesn't mind that the other sits those out. But the three always have the most fun and make the best memories when all together! 🥰💜

Magnus Pies: A TMA Pizza AU
-  All the entities and supernatural creatures still exist but it happens in a pizza place called the “Magnus Pies ®” established by Jonah Magnus.
- Jon is the new, under qualified manger. Very good a diffusing arguments and misinformation with customers. Practically a living coupon fraud detector. Once Martin overheard Jon use the phrase “please calm down” to a customer. Thinking that this would escalate the conversation, Martin braced himself from the kitchen. He was spooked quite a bit that the customer did calm down. He can’t tell if Jon is just that charming or if he can hypnotize people.
- Jon actually had some sliver of respect for Martin when they first met. Up until, he caught Martin whispering "Looking good little guys" to the pizzas baking in the oven. Jon has never looked at him the same since.
- Martin has mastered the customer service voice. In fact, it’s permanent. Every time he answers the phone, his voice automatically sweetens. Sasha and Tim have made fun of him for it. Working at Magnus Pies has broken him so much.
- Tim works the register. Flirts with customers so that they’ll come back. Can’t stand slow days. It’s actually Tim that makes the best pizza out of the crew.
- Ft. Sasha the pizza delivery girl. Eldritch horrors won’t stop her from delivering your pizza on time.
- Elias is the owner and hardly ever shows up.
- Instead of statement givers the customers will just overshare their supernatural encounters to the staff. Jon doesn’t think anything of people sharing their ghost stories to him. He writes it off as desperate customers craving any source of human interaction. Despite this, he remembers every tale a customer has told him.
- “Then after I kissed him, his body combusted into flames.”
“Sorry to hear that... That will be 17.89. ″
- There’s this one customer that orders questionable pizzas with special delivery instructions and has his pizza delivery scheduled every Wednesday at 5 pm. His requests went from a little strange to down right outlandish. One of his first orders, he instructed them to make a smiley face out of the pepperonis because he was “having a bad day.” One of his most recent orders was “a cheese-less pizza cheese pizza.” In the delivery instructions, he explains his doorbell is broken and suggests the delivery person to drop the pizza off in the middle of the yard and then “yell whatever feels right” to alert him of the pizza’s presence. Sasha often wonders if she has to cater to all his odd demands.
- The first time Sasha delivers to his house, the GPS malfunctioned? The customer’s house resides in a new residential area. So once she drove past the last known road, the GPS advised her to park her car and walk to her destination. She obviously ignored the computer automated voice and eventually found the house on her own. Since he always commands the delivery runner to drop the pizza outside his house, Sasha has never seen his face but the name he orders under is Micheal. (If that’s even his real name.)
- Is the pizza good? The reviews are mixed. Martin says “its fine”. Sasha thinks “it’s pretty good for the price.” Tim, on the other hand, is fully convinced that when Jonah Magnus created Magnus pizza, he had never eaten a pizza before in his life. He claims "the pizza is two hell circles away from mediocrity." If a person asked Elias, he would maintain that Magnus Pie pizza is of high quality, but the staff have never seen him eaten it before. As for Jon, he refuses to try it.
- The uniforms are pretty cute. A  transparent green tennis visor paired with a black collared shirt with logo on the right upper chest portion.
- This one time, someone spray painted a satanic circle in the parking lot and Elias botched and moaned about it for a week about how "it was driving customers away." He stops complaining about it after an angry goth boxed an old man on top of the circle one afternoon. Their fight drove in a crowd. Some people even bought a slice just to get a good view of the fight. Jon, of course, called the authorities but both parties fled before they arrived.
- Martin finds a homemade employee training tape from the 1980s hiding in the closet. It features an instructional video on how to make the pizzas but the employee or paid actress?? featured in the video disregards Magnus Pies’s official pizza guidelines™ and instead gives advice/ tips on how to cut corners (and arguably offers more valuable advice to employees). “Yeah I know the recipe calls for this much cheese but i always add to more handfuls. Most customers complain about how there isn’t nearly enough cheese -- how it’s practically tomato sauce with cheese sprinkles.” Whether it’s the dread in the lady’s eyes or the neglect of company policies, the tape is unfinished. The video cuts off after she places the pizza in the oven.
- Martin thinks the the training video is hilarious, so of course, he shares it with the rest of the staff. It’s Sasha that points out that one of the employees in the background looks like a younger version of Elias. A passionate debate breaks out on whether that person is actually Elias, but ends once Jon points out that Elias has complete heterochromia and the teenage boy in the video does not. 
- On a team building trip, Martin, Sasha, and Tim admit that they are glad Jon joined the team. Ever since he joined, the workplace has never been so lively. They all agree Jon’s presence attracts the unusual. Though he will never admit it, Jon found it touching.
- Some customers would describe the pizza joint as “eerily clean.” "The vibes are simply rancid” says one customer. Even with the speaker churning out today’s hottest pop hits (in a muffled tone), it is entirely too quiet. The atmosphere is dead,” says another. 
- “Little human activity and huge open spaces makes it somewhat spectral but the short wait times and fair food always brings me back. ⭐⭐⭐” - a google review from a town local
- One person gave them a bad review on Yelp. After they were done insulting the food, they moved on to assess the staff. “I’m usually not the type to complain/nit pick about employees but there was one that made me extremely uncomfortable. He wasn’t the warmest person, had an awfully posh accent, and sported dark circles under his eyes. When I spoke to him, his gaze was intense and unwavering. Throughout the entire conversation, he didn’t blink once. Even as a sat down, I could still feel his eyes lingering on me. I’m not an insecure person in the slightest but being watched like that, made me self conscious of my own breathing. I spun around once to see if he was staring at me, but to my surprise, he wasn’t. I may have never caught him staring at me, but I know he did. The sensation of being watched never ceased afterward. (half star emoji) ”
- Apparently, the joint has been open since the 1940s and despite the bad food and less than average traffic of customers, they’re still in business. There’s rumors that the Magnus Pie receives generous donations from Elias’s rich ex-lover that misses him dearly.
- Starring several disagreements/ arguments with customers. Just a bunch of misinformation that was spread by Elias to lure people into the building to feed the Eye.
- Sasha is late returning from a delivery one day, and after an hour they try to contact her. She’s unresponsive. Elias goes looking for her but comes back short. Later that night, they get a call from the hospital informing them that Sasha got into a car accident and fell unconscious upon impact. Sasha comes in for a shift a few weeks later, and nobody realizes she’s not Sasha. 
- The Magnus Pies’s odd reputation attracts the attention of popular YouTuber, Melanie King. She eventually becomes a regular in hopes of catching a supernatural event on camera for her channel. After experiencing a handful of odd encounters, she becomes engrossed by the place and starts working there in hopes of piecing together an explanation for the pizzeria’s paranormal activities. She later regrets this.
- has the potential to be a good tragicomedy

Helloooo Franky! ☆ I'm a sucker for AU prompts so I've never clicked a link faster in my life lol soooooo may I ask soulmate AU or room mate AU with either Sanji or Ace, please? hehe thank you! Hope you are having a nice day/night when you read this („• ᴗ •„)
my looove! here is a cute little soulmate AU <3
Ace x GN Reader SFW Prompt: soulmate AU [First words you and your soul mate say to each other are marked on your body] Word Count: 667
Tumblr media
“It’s so stupid.” Ace mumbled as he looked at the words on his wrist, squinting with a grimace on his face as he turned his wrist around to read the full thing.
“I admit, it ain’t the nicest one. “Thatch hummed and held Ace’s arm looking over the words that had appeared overnight, he chuckled a little which earned him a scowl.
Ace snatched his arm back and let his bangle fall back over it, leaning back in his seat, heavy boots propped up on the table until Marco walked over and pushed them off, almost causing Ace to fall backwards on his chair if he hadn’t been caught by the chef.
“Still complaining about it yoi?” Marco asked as he sat across from the flame user.
“You guys are lucky, yours are nice!” Ace mumbled and tipped his hat down over his sulking face.
“I don’t know why it bothers you so much, not the first badly done tat you got, Matchstick.” Thatch pointed out, nodding to his arm. Ace opened and closed his mouth, sulking.
-
This hadn’t been where you expected your life to come to an end. your crew hadn’t been the nicest when they decided to ditch you on a raft in the middle of the sea. A bottle of water and enough food for a day. Sitting there and contemplating what your next move was, hoping a seaking would just come along and eat you in one gulp to put you out of the impending misery you faced.
That was until you heard a strange sound, something was moving fast and heading straight for you. The boat was small, a man standing on it, waved firing out the back of it.
Ace had seen you in the distance, aiming the striker in your direction, slowing down before the current caused by his ship and his power was enough to rock the raft you were clinging to. You blinked when the handsome man tipped his hat, grinning brightly as he offered you his hand.
“Need some help?” He asked as you got to your feet, wincing at how much the wooden planks you called a lifeboat rattled under your movements.
You thought nothing about the words Ace had spoken, the soulmate mark that wrapped around your ankle was so vague it could have been anyone. ‘Need some help?’ you’d always needed help; it was a shitty and ridiculous hint to go by and you’d always ignored it.
“I don’t know, can I trust a man who comes out of nowhere in the middle of the sea and wearing a hat like that?” it was meant to be a half-joke but the way he gawked at you as his hand was still outreached towards you.
Ace couldn’t form words, so shocked at the chance meeting, the random recuse out at sea would be with his soulmate. He laughed just as awkwardly as you now, turning his wrist around and showing you.
“Oh…”
“Yeah..” Ace chuckled watching as you looked sheepish, taking his hand he pulled you onto the striker.
“I promise I’m just really bad at first impressions” You didn’t let go of his hand, this felt right, his hand in yours. He didn’t seem to move away either, just standing there with a smile on his face as he took off his hat, resting his forehead against yours.
“Me either, trust me.” Ace thought back to all the times he’d tried to murder the man he called ‘father’ now.
“Hopefully we can make a better second impression with one another huh?” You suggested, feeling his arms wrap around you, a mumble of agreement against your neck.
You smiled, you could tell he was someone who’d never expected to meet his soulmate, his emotions all over the place as he just held you. It felt nice, felt right just like all the stories of meeting your soulmate would tell you. It was an offbeat messy start but not every love story was flawless.
