Whumptober day 7
Prompt- Alleyway
Rated- G
Summary- The dog’s POV of the deleted scene from Doctor Strange 1. 
Excerpt:: 
Mutt lifted his leg, signaling to the man that he needed help. He added a pitiful whine for good measure. 
“Aww, look at you,” the man replied, holding his hand out to hold Mutt’s injured leg- a damaged, shaking hand holding a damaged, shaking paw.
Two poor creatures helping one another.

to anyone struggling to make the calendar show properly on custom wood r4 themes (bcuz it took me a bit to get them to work):
a thing to keep in mind is that wood r4 has the acekard ui or whatever so don’t look up “r4 themes”, look for acekard ones instead
the calendar (and the clock) probably won’t show as it should, like there aren’t any numbers
fortunately the solution is simple as hell:
Once u downloaded ur theme and unzipped it, open its folder
If there’s not a “calendar” folder, then create it.
Then, u will put the files “clock_colon.bmp”, “clock_numbers.bmp”, “day_numbers.bmp” and “year_numbers.bmp” in that folder
If that still doesn’t work, then go back to the main folder, and open the “uisettings” file (use any text editor, notepad, notepad++ idk)
Scroll until u see this:
[big clock]
x = (any number)
y = (any number)
show = (1 or 0)
u will see the same thing below that one, except they are called [calendar year], [calendar month] and [calendar day]
If any of them says “show = 0″ then change it to “show = 1″ (so it’ll show whatever number it’s supposed to show)
save file and that’s it
hope this is understandable bcuz i had to look up so many times the same question and didnt understand a thing until i realized i could change the uisettings file (and also that creating a folder makes a difference smh)

LESTAPPEN!DS AU (Tumblr deleted the ask but I am nothing if not persistent)
Ok I swear an ask just disappeared from my askbox because it was there before I went to make tea and now it is nowhere to be found but I really wanted to discuss it so I'm gonna answer it here anyway so anon who sent that ask, this is for you!
So it was about a poly!lestappen idea that I had for the D/S AU where you're a professional dom in Monaco and you dom both Max and Charles professionally. Except they both want more than that, so badly they want more than that. They don't know you dom the other until they run into each other outside of your offices and they're shocked but end up bonding over both wanting more with you and then eventually realise they actually want each other too, they want to both be your subs and have you be their dom, properly not just professionally.
The ask basically just asked for more info about this AU, how I think it would happen, where it would go after they realise they both have the same pro dom, etc.
Firstly, I think they'd go through a very brief phase of being jealous of each other. Neither of them are happy to actually meet one of your other subs. Knowing you're a professional dom with other subs is one thing, but actually seeing one of your other subs is another story.
So for a while they avoid each other like the plague, until there's a triple header where neither of them have been able to go back to Monaco and they both miss you so much. Charles goes to max, because he thinks max is the only one who would understand that he doesn't just need to submit to some random dom he needs you.
And Max does understand. They sit with each other that whole night, talking about how much they miss you and how much they hate the fact that you're a professional dom and not their own doms, that you'll never collar them.
They become a lot closer after that, but they take a while to tell you that they know about each other. They're both scared that they've broken some unnamed confidentiality rule, that you'd stop domming them if you knew they talked about you to each other.
It's the idea of bringing you to a race weekend that prompts them to finally tell you. It was Max's idea, after the third triple header where they both spend the last weekend curled up together (exactly how you would cuddle them), and max asks what would happen if they invited you to the second weekend in a triple header. Charles perks up immediately, because there's no denying how good that would be.
It's Charles who tells you they know each other in the end, not on purpose but because he's so fucked out and floating deep in subspace that he can't control what he babbles about. You've got him cuddled against your chest, and he's happily babbling away about how happy he is and how good you make him feel and then he just goes 'wanna cuddle you 'n maxy, maxy is so warm'.
You freeze, at first you don't realise who he's talking about but then you realise it's your max. Of course you knew that he knew Max, but considering the amount of NDAs you had to sign to scene with either of them, you assumed they'd never tell each other who they scened with. But apparently not, and apparently they cuddled together.
Charles doesn't even realise what he's done, and you don't bring it up then because it would probably send him right into a drop.
But later, after he's already left, you can't stop thinking about what he said.
You imagine then together, two of your subs cuddled up all warm and safe. You can't deny that they're both your favourite subs. You know you shouldn't have favourites, that you're just providing a service. But they are both such sweet good boys, and you wish they could be yours so badly.
Maybe Max convinced you to go out to coffee with him and Charles after you didnt react badly to finding out they know of each other and have clearly been talking about you.
You know you shouldn't have agreed to it, it certainly breaks every professional boundary in the book. But honestly... you want to spend more time with them.
Despite them trying to arrange more and more time with you and getting you to come to races, it takes them much longer to realise they actually want each other too. They manage to convince themselves that the only reason they enjoy cuddling and spending time together is because they miss you and know what you're like.
Which just... adorable really.

Please answer this!
So, I am currently working on the Dragonstone chapters of everything that happens on DS after Rhaenys escapes. The timeline is stretched a little to make more sense for continuity's sake, but also because I will be adding some scenes. The thing is, in the first draft of these chapters, there are some scene from the show that I left out because I thought I have nothing more to add, but I don't know if you want me to add them. (You won't get every scene, but most of them.)
These scenes include: -The scene between Jace and Daemon -The funeral of Visenya + the coronation -Some of the Black Council scenes
I intend to add: -The scene where the Hightower emissary comes -One of the deleted scenes between Rhaenyra and Jace
I am thinking of adding the Daemon/Jace scene, but I don't know about the rest, what do you think?

hi!! ur m&l iceberg appeared on my dash, and i mmmight wanna make a premiere video abt it someday?? (if i'm able 2 get the right tools 4 the job kdkdjndg i wanna do game commentary and maybe reviews) but like!! do u mind explaining each of the points in crude detail?? i already know abt most of them as well, but just 2 be sure!! ty :D
I'm HONORED you'd consider making a video about my chart! However, I had some problems with answering this as Tumblr would frequently delete all of my progress. I assume this is because of the answer simply being too long, which is why I'll try to tackle three layers at a time. I will add more parts of the explanation with every reblog. I'm truly sorry but this is the only option.
Just as a little refresher, here's the full chart! Explanations are under the cut because this is gonna be long >:)
Tumblr media
Alright let's get into this!
Layers 1 - 3:
Layer 1
-Seven games:
In total there's seven games in the Mario and Luigi series, five original titles (Superstar Saga, Partners In Time, Bowser's Inside Story, Dream Team, Paper Jam) and two remakes (Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Junior's Journey)
-Striped socks:
On the original artworks for the Mario and Luigi games, Luigi is seen wearing striped socks, something unique to this series. However, the socks haven't shown up in official artwork since Dream Team.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
-Luigi running gag:
In the Mario and Luigi games there exists a common running gag that consists of Luigi being underestimated or completely forgotten by other characters. They'll often praise Mario while then either insulting or downplaying Luigi.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
-Giant battles:
In Bowser's Inside Story and Dream Team there exists a form of battles known as "giant battles", during which Bowser (in BIS) and Luigi (in DT) turn massive to face off against giant enemies. The player has to flip their DS/3DS horizontally and dodge/fire off attacks by tapping the touch screen. In Paper Jam, there's also a form of battles called "papercraft battles" in which the player controls giant paper figurines, looking similar to the game's characters.
-Superstar Saga on Switch:
On February 8th 2023, Nintendo announced the port of several GBA games to Nintendo Switch Online, with Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga being one of them. Superstar Saga is currently the only title to be playable on Switch.
Layer 2
-Fawful in PIT:
In PIT there exists an optional area right underneath Peach's castle, in which you can observe a mysterious hooded figure. If you follow them with Baby Mario and Baby Luigi, the person reveals himself to be Fawful, who quickly starts telling the babies about his plan for revenge. He starts getting more and more emotional during his speech, but tells the babies that there's no need to worry about him. The player can then pay Fawful with beans in exchange for rare badges. This scene foreshadowes the entirety of Bowser's Inside Story, in which Fawful takes over the Mushroom kingdom, making his plan reality.
Tumblr media
-The blorbs:
The blorbs are an illness that plagues the Mushroom Kingdom during the events of Bowser's Inside Story. If a Toad consumes a so called "Blorb Mushroom" they will get infected with the disease, causing their bodies to grow large and round, immobilizing them. The blorbs play an important role in the plot, as the illness is an important part of Fawfuls plan to take over the Mushroom Kingdom. During the end of the game, Dr. Toadley manages to get rid the blorbs, using the Miracle Cure.
-Luisley:
Luisley is the name of a popular ship in the M&L community. It is based on the idea of Luigi and Prince Peasley being in a romantic relationship. The game itself seems to heavily support this idea, as Peasley is often seen paying special attention to Luigi, and Luigi blushing when meeting the prince. This Tumblr post explains it in more detail.
-Gold beanie:
In Superstar Saga and Dream Team you can encounter enemies called Beanies. They're basically just green beans with and evil grin and tiny feet, and they're pretty easy to take down. However there exists a rare golden variant of these enemies, which have a high chance of fleeing every turn. Upon beating one, the playing receives a high amount of experience points as a reward.
-Alphadream filing for bankruptcy:
On October 1st, 2019, Alphadream, primarily known for their work on the Mario and Luigi series, filed for bankruptcy. This was most likely due to high development costs and bad revenue in return. What got the studio into that position in the first place probably were the bad sales of Superstar Saga's remake and Bowser Junior's Journey failing horrendously.
-No PIT remake:
While Superstar Saga and Bowser's Inside Story both received remakes, Partners In Time didn't get to enjoy that treatment. This was most likely due to Inside Story having better sales in comparison and Alphadream wanting to remake the most popular game in the series. However, them skipping the second installment and remaking the third game instead, still seems a bit odd.
-Shroobish:
Shroobish is the language spoken by the Shroobs in Partners In Time. It is written in a different alphabet and is totally indecipherable. The game does translate some words and sentences for the player, most notably the word destroy.
-Beanish and beanies are related species:
This is a popular theory created by fans that isn't mentioned in the game itself. The theory is based on the fact that Beanish and beanies share a lot of similarities, for example wide grins and green skin tone. The theory states that Beanish used to look similar to beanies, but evolved over time into what we know them as today.
Layer 3
-Cover art style change:
Superstar Saga as well as Partners in Time both have very detailed designs for their box art, while from Bowser's Inside Story onward the design is kept much simpler, just having a white background with the characters placed on top of it. It is important to note that the American version of Superstar Saga's remake uses the modern style, while the European version is a direct callback to the original's box art.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
-Paper Jam hate:
Paper Jam is easily the least popular game in the series. This is due to the game's lack of original characters and story telling, which makes it stand out negatively when compared to the rest of the series. It had big potential, being a crossover with the Paper Mario series, but barley incorporated any of its elements, ending up as a rather boring M&L title, with Paper Mario as a playable character.
-Carrot minigame:
The carrot minigame is one of the many minigames present in Bowser's Inside Story and it's remake. Due to it's precise touch screen controls it is notoriously frustrating and difficult to beat, especially for younger players, slowly making it gain kind of a meme status amongst the community.
-Cacklebean:
Much like Luisley, Cacklebean is another popular ship in the M&L community, this time pairing Cackletta with Queen Bean. The idea is often backed up by Cackletta seemingly having a lot of knowledge about Beanbean Castle and its secrets, such as the security system surrounding the Beanstar. Queen Bean and the residents of the Beanbean Kingdom also never seem to mention Cackletta in any negative light whatsoever, often just insulting Fawful instead of her.
-Yoko Shimomura:
Yoko Shimomura is a Japanese composer primarily known for her work in video games, including the Mario and Luigi series. She also composed for games such as Super Mario RPG: Legend Of The Seven Starts and Kingdom Hearts.
-Headcanons:
This is a more community focused entry. Fans of the Mario and Luigi series often have a lot of different headcanons, some just adding more depth to certain characters while others change the story in its entirety. Since everyone's headcanons are different, everyone perceives the games differently and every fan stands out in their own unique and special way. Some popular headcanons include Cackletta being Fawfuls adoptive mother, Popple and Fawful being brothers or Peasley being gay.
-SSS difficulty spike:
The original version of Superstar Saga is kind of notorious for having a really weird difficulty spike with the game being pretty easy over all but then suddenly raising the difficulty out of nowhere before having it decrease again. Some examples of this are Wiggler and Trunkle going down in just a few hits while having much harder battles before and after them, Cackletta in Woohoo Hooniversity being a pretty tough challenge for this point of the game all while having the difficulty decrease again seconds later, and of course the final boss being absurdly hard and coming out of nowhere with the game refusing to prepare you for it at all.
-Popple is suffering from memory loss:
When encountering Popple in Dream Team, he does not recognize Mario and luigi at all, despite mentioning how he had trouble with people looking extremely similar back when he was still in the Beanbean Kingdom.
-Geno in the Fungitown arcade:
In Little Fungitown, the player will encounter Geno from Super Mario RPG while playing the Star 'Stache Smash minigame, where he will moderate the game and explain the rules. Geno is absent from the remake due to him not being owned by Nintendo.

And It Begins
Uniformed officers milled around the edges as the Scenes of Crime Officers (SOCO) marked evidence.
Another murder. Another businessman going by his suit and the briefcase he carried. The third one in the past eight days. At least that is what the police on the scene are clearly being led to believe. Sherlock took one look at the man and knew better.
There was something about the scene. It was wrong.
“Officer…” Sherlock tapped a constable on the shoulder. “Tell the photographer he should...”
The uniformed constable half guarding the police caution line turned, then frowned seeing Sherlock. “You again? Get out of here!”
Sherlock rolled his eyes.
I really need to stop deleting the more annoying officers so I know which ones to avoid. He won’t listen.
“Hey SOCO photographer!” Sherlock yelled trying and failing to get the woman’s attention.
“Stay back!” The constable shoved his baton in Sherlock’s chest. “I’ll have you arrested - again.”
“Want to waste more of the taxpayers’ pounds?” Sherlock scoffed. “Did you a lot of good the last time – didn’t it?”
“Seeing you in cuffs and getting you out of my face makes it worth it. Want us to spend some more?” The constable reached for his handcuffs, the smile on his face vicious as Sherlock opened his mouth to blast the officer then  thought better of it and backed away. “Yeah, that’s what I thought.”
Sherlock rolled his eyes – again. Not worth it.
He has already learned the hard way that loudly voicing his opinion at the ineptitude of London’s Metropolitan Police at a crime scene was a surefire way to get arrested on suspicion of said crime.
And I am in no mood to endure yet another lecture from Mycroft.
He shoved his hands into his trouser pockets and sighed in frustration as he blended into the crowd, keeping an eye on the scene.
Idiots. The lot of them.
A civilian on the public side of the police caution tape was in a discussion with a detective inspector Sherlock had a run in with before. The DI was the lead in charge as he gave orders to officers on his side of the tape.  The civilian looked vaguely familiar from the back, but Sherlock could not quite place him.  He was pointing at something on the crime scene to the DI. Sherlock eased his way over to listen.
“Can I come in?”
“Look I know you’re up for promotion, but you’re still just a bloody DS and…”
“Come off it. You know I ain’t gunning for your job. Why would I help and on my day off mind? I know it’s your scene, Taylor, and I’m just a DS, but I’m tellin’ ya, the trappings are there but something ain’t right, did the photographer get…”
Ah, so another copper and apparently this detective sergeant is a bit smarter on the uptake than the rest of these idiots.
“But can you tell me exactly what ain’t right?” DI Taylor challenged.
“No.” The detective sergeant admitted. “Just the suit. Maybe.”
The location. The way he is laid out. The suitcase. The…
Several other discrepancies rolled through Sherlock’s mind.
Hmm, he’s lying. Definitely not quite the idiot as the rest. He knows more than it’s wrong.
Sherlock looked at the tallish man.
Late thirties - early forties. Athletic build. Hair greying prematurely. Where do I know him?
“Like you said it’s your day off – so stay off my scene. That’s an order.” Taylor gave the detective sergeant a look and walked away.
“He’s an idiot…” Sherlock and the detective sergeant huffed at the same time once Taylor was out of earshot.
The detective sergeant turned hearing Sherlock and smiled. “It’s you – innit it?”
“Excuse me?” Sherlock stared into warm brown eyes that clearly recognized him.
Who is he? He seems somewhat familiar.
“It’s been a few since that night at the burglary. Got clean, did ya? You look good! Sherwin – wait, no that’s not it. A strange name for a strange kid - Sherlock! How are you?”
Sherlock grinned as the memories fell into place.
‘A strange name for a strange kid, but I like you.’ So, the constable I met years ago is now a detective sergeant on his way to being a detective inspector.
“Hello Lestrade.” Sherlock inclined his head. “Congratulations on your promotion since I saw you last.”
Lestrade looked at Sherlock and looked at the scene knowingly. “So! You’re still snooping around making us coppers look really stupid?”
“No, Lestrade. I’m afraid no one listens to me, so you coppers do it all to yourselves.” Sherlock sniffed.
“I listened that one time before you disappeared on me.”
“That is true.” Sherlock admitted. “Apologies. Uni will do that. I’m looking into a possible consulting venture, now.”
Uni, a decade, and a few stints in rehab, but he doesn’t need to know I’m still working on that last part.
“Good! I wish you luck, then.”
“Thank you, Sgt. Lestrade. We’ll see.”
“Look…” Lestrade leaned in conspiratorially. “Taylor’s an idiot, and it is his crime scene, but I’m friends with Anderson, one of the forensic guys here. Not a bad chap, I’d use him when I have a team. Maybe I can happen to look at the photos and pass along some our observances?”
“Our observances?” Sherlock eyed him shrewdly. “Tell me what you did not tell Taylor.”
“Oi, still got that eye that sees too much betimes.” Lestrade grinned. “I don’t know much about clothes – zip it you - but the other victims wore bespoke; they were high rollers. The suit on this one may not be off the peg, but it and the briefcase look cheap by comparison.” Lestrade looked at the crime scene and mentioned a couple of other things. “You?”
Sherlock glanced at the scene again, looked at Lestrade and grinned. “Not bad, but…”
“And here’s where I get embarrassed.” Lestrade shook his head and chuckled. “Okay, tell me.”
Tumblr media
In BBC canon S1E1 (ASiP), Lestrade states he has known Sherlock for five years. This is my take on where their working relationship began.
Greg and Sherlock reference the very first time they met in my fic  Not Strange - Different
@mystradepromptsandscenarios
I know not Mystrade at all, but Muse want what they want with a prompt, I go with it.

Once Upon A Deleted Scene | OUAT fanfic | Don't Let Go DS
This is a deleted scene for my story Don't Let Go (Because I Can't Hold It Back Anymore), which is a canon divergence for White Out, where instead of Emma getting trapped with Elsa, she's trapped with Killian. :)
This first part of the deleted scene is right when Emma & Killian get trapped in the ice cave, but instead of Emma being unconscious, she isn't, and instead of Hook's POV, it's Emma's. I later preferred Hook's pov and him dealing with the situation himself, and being afraid for Emma since she wasn't conscious.
The second part of this is Emma being unconscious, but Killian managing to wake her up quicker. I again just felt like I would rather have Hook protecting her and have more time go by in order to have his condition worsen before hers. Cause. h/c. y'know. heh xD
Emma felt time freeze.
Pun not intended.
One moment her eyes were staring at the ice and snow falling straight for her, her feet frozen to the spot in panic.
And the next, she was knocked forcefully to the ground, and the ice and snow crashed over her with such a thud it rang her ears.
She hit the icy ground hard on her chest, pain sending a shockwave through her whole body.
Her head felt jumbled for a few terrifying seconds, her eyes screwed shut as the world still shook as if through an earthquake.
But the horrible pain of ice striking her didn’t come. 
In fact, whatever had knocked her down and was now pinning her beneath its weight wasn’t even cold.
Emma slowly, cautiously blinked her eyes open, wincing at the headache that definitely came from being knocked around like a kite in a hurricane. Her vision pieced together, revealing what looked like some sort of ice cavern, its interior almost double the size of Granny’s. Snow was still settling, flying in the air from the crash, broken ice lying in heaps like debris around her. 
Emma quickly found it hard to breathe, and was about to try to free herself from what was pinning her down when it groaned.
Emma froze.
She knew that voice.
And she’s seen him in pain enough times that she knew that groan just as well.
“Hook?!” she breathed, now feeling him even clearer; the warmth pinning her down was Killian. 
His chest was pressed firmly into her back, his head resting over her shoulder.
And in the same instant, Emma realized that the force that had knocked her to the ground wasn’t the ice and snow.
It was Killian.
“Emma,” he huffed out, his voice sounding like it was squeezed out between clenched teeth. He grunted again, trying to move. His hand slipped on the icy floor next to her face. “Are you… all right?” he managed.
“Yeah,” she breathed, her heart beating steadily faster at the pain in his voice. “You?” 
“...Aye,” he said after a hesitation, and Emma didn’t need to look him in the eye to know it was a lie. With another grunt, Killian pressed his hand to the floor again, trying to lift himself off of her. His arm shook with strength, but with another grunt of effort, he managed to lift himself off her, snow and ice falling off him to the floor. He pushed himself to the side, falling to the ground beside her.
Instantly, Emma felt a blast of frigid air touch every part of her Killian had been lying on, and she felt a violent tremor. Ignoring it, she shoved herself to her knees. Killian’s face was drawn in a grimace, lying on his back, eyes screwed shut. He breathed hard, his hand ghosting his abdomen with a hiss. From the look of the ice that had landed on him, Emma had no idea how hurt he’d gotten.
Emma hovered over him. “Don’t tell me you broke your ribs again,” she said with forced lightness.
His eyes opened, and he gave her a shaky smile. “Seems I get the pleasure of seeing you every time I do,” he said, giving her a wink for good measure.
Emma let out a breath, settling herself with knowing he wasn’t severely injured or dying, sitting back on her heels as Hook pulled himself up.
Both of them rose to their feet, looking back toward where the street had been.
Emma felt her heart catch.
They were completely sealed in.
Where she’d been standing only minutes ago, there was a new ice wall firmly between them and the street.
“What the hell?” breathed Emma.
“She bloody froze us in,” muttered Killian with enough heat to melt the whole place down.
Just then, Emma heard a static-laced voice calling her name.
It was coming from beneath a small pile of snow where she and Killian had landed.
Emma quickly rushed to it, grabbing the walkie-talkie she’d dropped from the snow, and David’s voice was loud and clear. “-- mma! Hook! Damn it, someone talk to me!”
Emma felt a little smile grace her lips at her father’s worried voice. With fingers that were just beginning to lose feeling, she pressed the talk button and said, “Dad?” She stood, feeling Killian hovering at her shoulder. “Can you hear us?”
Half a second later, she heard his relieved sigh. “ Emma. Thank god. Are you okay? Is Hook okay?”
“Yeah,” said Emma, her voice shaking a little with the tremor running through her body from the cold. Because dammit, she was freezing . “We’re okay.” A look at Killian showed him still holding his ribs, but he didn’t look seriously hurt. “I think we’re frozen in, though,” said Emma, biting her lip. Even as she said the words, Killian had strode to the wall separating them from David and began hacking at it with his hook. It barely scratched the surface. His brows narrowed, and he struck it harder. Emma grabbed his arm before he could strike it again, and he gave her a look. “That’s not gonna work,” she said, her breath a white cloud before her. “Magic made this thing,” she said, giving the frozen structure a wary look. “I think it’s gonna take magic to un -make it.”
With reluctance, Killian gave up the fruitless attempt and Emma released his arm. “Dad,” said Emma to the walkie. “Is she out there? The… the woman? Elsa?”
There was a slight pause, then David’s voice, a bit more hushed, “ She’s threatened to leave you and Hook trapped in there and freeze the whole damn town if I don’t help her find some sister of her’s.”
Emma shut her eyes. Elsa had mentioned some sister. But from the short conversation Emma had with the woman, she only had a necklace of her sister. And Emma hadn’t heard about anyone named Anna showing up in Storybrooke. And it was a small damn town . 
A hunt to find a missing person, especially one who probably wasn’t even in Storybrooke, was going to take more than just a little while.
And if the tremors wracking her body were telling enough, it was cold .
Hours trapped in here? It had to be less than ten degrees.
Killian seemed to come to the same idea. “Mate,” he said toward the walkie. “It’s bloody freezing in here.”
Deafening silence from David’s end.
Then–
“ I’m going to get you two out of there. I promise.”
Emma exchanged a look with Killian.
His eyes held just as much hope as she felt.
David promised to keep the walkie on him, and from his side of the communication she heard the slam of a car door.
Emma let out a breath, trying not to feel as hopeless as she did.
Without a word, Killian stalked back to the wall, and once again started hacking away at it.
“Killian–” began Emma.
“I’m not bloody giving up,” he replied shortly, striking the wall harder than he did before. His face screwed up in a grimace at what must have hurt.
“I’m not either,” said Emma just as firmly, grabbing his shoulder to stop him. “But that isn’t working.”
Killian set his lips, but dropped his arm again, reluctantly and wordlessly agreeing. “Well, I’m open to suggestions.”
“I… I can try…” mumbled Emma, lifting her hands, her fingers shaking with a very visible tremor from the cold. “I c-can try to make a f-fire,” she said.
Killian smiled, and Emma felt a little warmth bloom in her chest, like it did every time she earned praise from him. Which she would never, ever admit . “Brilliant idea,” he said softly. “You can do it, Swan.”
Shutting her eyes, Emma tried to concentrate her magic into her palms. 
The last time she’s made fire was back in Neverland, and she’d only done so on what she believed was a very, very lucky try. Killian and Neal were in danger and it just… happened . 
Regina’s magic lessons were less than helpful, since she was more concerned with Emma’s instinctual reflexes than teaching her to control her magic. She’d managed teleporting small things, but Regina had stepped all over her pride at the success by saying it was the most elementary magic trick . Evidently creating fire was also elementary, and Emma hasn’t done that in well over a year.
After a moment of trying, Emma cracked her eyes open, seeing nothing between her palms.
She shook out her hands, feeling her whole body shaking from the cold now, but still, nothing was happening .
Brows furrowed in worry, Emma looked at Killian, who was still watching her, his hope and belief in her making her chest hurt. “I–I can’t do it,” she whispered. She shut her eyes, letting out a breath, hugging her arms around herself. “ God , it’s freezing,” she breathed.
Killian was doing something and Emma opened her eyes to see him taking off his coat. With stark confusion because how could he not be as cold as she was? she stammered out, “Wh-what the hell are you doing?”
“You’re bloody freezing,” he said simply, with that soft kindness, that sort of quiet concern he reserved only for her. He draped his coat around her shoulders.
“No, Killian–I have a coat, you’re gonna–”
He smiled a little, ignoring her protests, and Emma couldn’t help shutting her eyes at the warmth blanketing her like a damn hug . His coat was heavy , and it blocked the frigidness of the cold, taking the razor edge out of the air, and it held every bit of his body heat. “Your coat,” he said, a little smile at his lips, “isn’t doing a bloody thing. Now put your arms in.”
“Killian–”
“ Arms ,” he said, firmer, and Emma huffed out a cloud of white breath, realizing he wasn’t budging on the subject. With a little indignant huff, she put her arms through.
And dammit, it was warm .
Not only that, it smelled like him , and Emma really tried not to enjoy that as much as she did.
She opened her eyes, seeing that little smile at his lips, and she was suddenly afraid he could read her mind. 
Now he was only donned in his thin cloth shirt with the ridiculously low vee neck, and his vest. She could already see a tremor run through him. “What about you?” she mumbled, hugging his jacket to her, again trying not to sigh with relief, hiding her frozen fingers in the folds of the material.
“I’ve sailed plenty of arctic waters without this central heating , as you call it,” he said with a smile. “And Neverland was never known for comfortable temperatures. I’m more used to it than you are, love.”
She could see in his eyes that he was only telling her part of the truth.
Emma sighed. Gentleman .
“Well, thanks,” she said softly.
That earned her a real smile from him.
“And… thanks for…” she said, gesturing to the debris on the ground. “For what you did.”
He stepped toward her, flipping up the collar of his jacket around her, blocking out more of the cold. He smiled. “I’d do anything for you, Emma.”
Emma couldn’t exactly describe the feeling that flitted through her when her superpower deemed that completely truthful.
-.-.-.
[2nd deleted scene - waking up in the ice cave]
“Emma…”
Emma slowly came back to awareness, feeling a dull ache in her head. But very quickly after, the ache was nearly forgotten.
She was freezing .
“Emma? That’s it, love,” came a familiar, husky voice from somewhere above her. “Open your eyes.”
Memories came like a rush.
The ice wall.
The woman—Elsa.
Then…
Something happened with the ice and snow. Emma remembered sharp pain knocking her off her feet, and then… 
Nothing.
“Emma, love, please open your eyes.”
Killian’s voice filtered back into her mind, and Emma wondered if she was dreaming.
She’s never heard him sound so outright worried before. 
There was a touch of anxiety, a panicked urgency shaking his voice, and hearing him uncertain was completely unlike him.
It was enough to worry her herself .
Awareness was rushing her to reality, sounds becoming clearer, the cold becoming colder, yet she could suddenly feel his hand on her shoulder, shaking her gently. 
Her eyes cracked open.
His face was the first thing she saw. He was leaning over her, blue eyes vivid with stormy concern. When he saw her eyes open, he smiled something brilliant with relief. “Thank the gods,” he whispered, his breath a plume of white mist.
Which only reminded her it was fricken freezing . 
For whatever reason, she was lying on her back, and the ground felt like pure ice . She could feel the slight ache in the back of her head, which must have been the culprit for passing out, but she was happy to see her vision clear and her faculties in order for the most part. 
Emma blinked, eyes tracing the ceiling that looked like some sort of cave that had been completely frozen over. “Where the h-hell are we?” she asked, her teeth chattering through the words. She moved to sit up. Killian himself was on his knees at her side, and quickly he pressed his hand to her back, helping her up when her hands slipped on the icy floor. 
“The… ice witch,” said Killian with a little heat, “trapped us in this… structure,” said Killian, his brows furrowed. At Emma’s look, he answered before she could ask, “You’ve been unconscious for a quarter of an hour, if that.”
Well, that’s a good sign, thought Emma. She could feel her teeth chattering, her whole body beginning to tremble in the attempt to get warm. Emma looked around, seeing ice everywhere she looked. They certainly did look trapped.  
“Are you hurt?” asked Killian.
“N-no,” managed Emma, shivering even more. She hugged her arms, her fingers almost too cold to feel.
Something passed through Killian’s eyes. “You’re bloody freezing.” Immediately he shrugged out of his coat, throwing it around her shoulders. “Here.”
Even as it began to catch her body heat, Emma couldn't quite tell if the jacket or his gesture that offered her more warmth.
-.-.-.

heyo! seeing n and the way you drawn him has gotten me really curious to know more! What game(s) is him in? how can I learn more?
Ahh, I'm so happy I could get someone interested in him through my work. I'm flattered, thank you. I'll try my best to help.
As for appearances:
N appears in various media, but the most important ones are the games, Pokémon Black and White for the Nintendo DS (his debut) and the sequels to those games Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 on the same game system. He also appears on the main anime in the Unova centered seasons and In animated shorts such as Pokemon Generations and Evolutions, where you get to see game scenes animated and have some lore expanded upon.
As for Manga, he is in Pocket Monster Special (the "main" Pokemon manga), Heroes of thunder and fire (CoroCoro comics), and possibly some other CoroCoro comics works based on Unova which seem to be lost media, and as such, there's possibilities of N being featured in those.
And quite recently (all things considered), he has been added to Pokémon Masters EX, a gacha game which allows you to "obtain" N and fight with him in teams and talk to him.
To learn more about him:
Playing the games would be the first step ideally, so you can experience the base story unfold before your eyes. From that point onward, I think watching the animated shorts would be next since you cannot be spoiled :) If you don't have the time, maybe some video essays on YouTube or a playthrough could do the trick but you'll perhaps be relying on someone else's understanding of the story, and as such, miss important details not just pertaining to N but the game in general. If you stay keen you'll be fine :)
I would then read the pocket special manga and perhaps give Masters a try, since those expand on his character quite nicely and I find them to be quite good characterizations of him if combined with the prior knowledge obtained during the DS games playthrough. Although masters has more issues than I'd like, but that's besides the point.
And my best advice:
Once you're done with the games, go to the tags and follow a bunch of N enthusiasts. People often discuss his character, quite in depth and even point out details that you may have missed (I used to do this a lot on my deleted insta, sometimes I still do it on my Twitter @kooru_03).
Going into Bulbapedia and reading through trivia will lead you to other sources that hold valuable information, such as interview, concept art, etc etc....
My additional comments:
The BW games are of the best the franchise can offer and as such, the discussion is rich. I'd advice to not focus to much on just him and look at his close bonds and the game in general, as you may uncover more about him that way. No one lives in a vacuum after all. The game is absurdly deep when you start zooming in and out. Like, ABSURDLY so. In a good way, of course.
Sorry for the intimidating length, but I hope this was a useful guide. I wrote this off the top of my head so If anyone else has anything they'd like to add, I'd appreciate that.

Hey Faree! I don't remember if you answer this before but how and when did you discover & play Bloodborne for the first time?
Ooooh, it's quite a story! ("What a story, Mark")
Until this summer, I had only heard about Bloodborne, seen art and sometimes read stuff, but since the console is a very expensive thing, I didn’t even think about having one. Although, remembering now, I always came across BB somewhere on the internet, and I quietly envied the owners of the PlayStation 4. Especially Gehrman and Maria fascinated me... I started shipping them back then, only relying on wiki info about them xd
Around last year, my husband and I plunged into Fromsoftware games, starting with DS 3 and beating Elden Ring 3 times (all with perfectly cleared map, seriously, we visited ALL places in game we could find). And then unexpectedly one of our friends lent us a console for a while - the opportunity arose to get acquainted with a very interesting game. Finally Bloodborne was so close!
First playthrough was tough, we were excited, confused, searching for lore (in-game notes were quite a something what I couldn't understand - I thought back then "I feel a good story, but still don't understand what is going on). I was screaming from excitement on a Micolash boss fight (Cut-scene was amazing, his voice and everything ooooof) while my husband tried to break the gamepad out of indignation xD Right before Orphan of Kos (Only Orphan, Gehrman and Moon Presence left to finish the game) the console showed a bug and deleted all the saves... And the characters. Well, that's all. I was shocked, because I loved my Guillermo with all my soul, I even wrote first fanfic about him and Micolash... And time came for the console had to be given back to friend.
The game became so dear that we took all the money and ran out in the evening to buy a console. We decided that it was better to eat instant noodles than live without BB (a family of gamers is a disaster). We got the console through resale (a little cheaper), so the instant noodles were served with mayonnaise! xd
There was euphoria. I recreated Guillermo 6 times, trying to replicate his face looking at the photo I made (Gehrman moment lmao) Q_Q I succeeded, it was my lovely good hunter again, and I even took a photo of all the settings of his appearance to not to lose him again. According to my old tradition, his class was Waste of Skin, but that's another story 😏
Then we went to earn platinum, and I got down to Chalice dungeons, which I had sworn not to go into before, because after Elden Ring I was already sick of dungeons. But the desire for platinum and then the desperation to find the Ring of Betrothal (we're playing offline, so no glyphs) made me beat Queen Yharnam, and go to a few more dungeons after that! (Everything for Micolash yeah) Local Amygdala was a challenge, and Guillermo died more than 80 times (not a single boss was that hard in BB I swear. Only Midir in DS3 made me suffer like that, he took 130 attemtps, making me cry), but surprisingly there was no anger or depression, although Laurence after 5th attempt made me flame up of anger xD
Bloodborne has sunk into my heart so much that I put it on a par with FF9 - the game of my childhood and probably my life.
It’s also funny that long time ago (maybe a few years) I have found a cool art on Pinterest and it depicted a character who immediately caught my attention. I just couldn’t understand what means the cage on his head and what fandom he is from. Pinterest didn’t help to identify who it was - it gave only errors and closed the page with art, leaving me without any explanations. So I met Micolash long before the game, and... Majestic™ captivated me even then xD

A virus sweeps across Dreamswap killing hundreds if not thousands. JR is working tirelessly to fix what is broken, the Memes Squad helping from the sidelines as they have made a temporary truce to stop the big bad virus. Then all of a sudden comes in a tall man wearing a black robe and has raven wings dark as night. He introduces himself as Reaper and he, along with a few other of his friends, are from the original universe. The group of newcomers have came to delete the virus and save Dreamswap. However, Dream is not comfortable not knowing who else is in his building, even if they are helping him. He gets Reaper to reveal his team so that they can recognize them in a moments notice. Before Reaper can respond loud alarms and flashing lights are all over the walls. The virus has infiltrated JR. On the way to the scene they run into a few of the new team members; Outer, Fell, Lust, Fresh, and even Reapers husband Geno. Once the ragtag group reaches the scene the see the last of the God of Deaths group, Swap. Swap was holding onto the code of the virus, throwing away all the bad and keeping the good. The DS crew did not know what to think of this Blue look alike, their Blue had died when the virus first arrived, being caught on one of the trains. When they them saw how Swap got along with the others, always having a helping hand and a open ear, they felt something. Maybe it was love or maybe just pure obsession, they will find out along the way. All they knew was that Swap had saved them and now they needed to keep him here.

Guys...
Guys... listen... it's important... (it's not lol) (p/b/s/ ki//ds character eprocto headcannons/scenarios) (totally not Ru//ff Ru//ff//man, no, no, yes)
-Ru//ff Ru//ff//man would have short bassy farts that he's embarrassed about, especially when they accidently come out
-He'll try to silence them against his chair or a bed, but it backfires (get it?) and just amplifies his gas. then it leaves whatever he farted on all stinky
-"Ooh, Ch//ar//lene wants to go on a date!" *proceeds to press his stomach against a hard surface to get the gas out so he doesn't fart during the date*
-He's an idiot and thinks that if he farts while talking to someone on the phone, they're not gonna hear it
-There are some scenes where Ru//ff just goes inside/under the Fet//ch 3000... do you ever think he accidentally hot boxed himself? lol
-He's always eating chinese food and I'm half convinced it's because most of that food is safe for him to eat
-some kibble brands give him bad stomach aches, and a big amount of gas that's hard to hold in around company
-speaking of stomach aches from gas, he gets so whiny when that happens and he pretty much can't do anything. But he'll beg Blo//ss//om for a belly rub, or anyone for that matter.
-the polarity between when he first meets you to when he's comfy around you: he would just die if he let one slip around you, but give him a few month and he'll be ripping loud rumblers into the couch like you're not even sitting there
-sometimes when he needs to fart really bad, he'll step outside, especially if he feels like it's gonna be a bad one
-wags his tail after farting away his stomach ache, which just wafts the gas around
-sometimes a lot of little accidental farts means he really needs to... y'know hehe
-the dutch ovens go crazy, that's all I'm saying-😳😳
-Idk i feel like he used to get into fart contests with his brother. He'll admit that, but what he's not gonna admit was that he won most of them
-now that I think about it, he probably eats foods that his stomach is sensitive to. Like he likes the flavor and his poor tummy is gonna have to suffer, no how much he'll get warned on it
~
Alright, that's it but omg please send me more dms. I've indulged a lot on one fave being gassy, and now it's time to bring this one back. hopefully i don't end up deleting these later lol

Thanks for thinking of me!! :-)
10 songs that come up on shuffle and 5 I actually listen to:
1. Intro - Vince Pope (I'm not making this up I swear 💀; To me it's a bop. A banger even. A staple.)
2. ye. x Squired - gloss (I actually listen to this all the time bc I downloaded some music a few months ago from my edm phase when I was 13 jdjdjddjdjdj I still remember going through every song on the youtube channel suicidesheeep and downloading only the ones I liked, which were like 15 in total 💀💀💀)
3. Big Time Rush - Big Time Rush (What can I say? It's a classic.)
4. 2 AM - Animal Crossing City Folk (I have the whole hourly soundtrack for City Folk and New Leaf on my phone. To me it's a must 💪)
5. Stars Dance - Selena Gomez (Oh. My. God. I was obsessed with this song when I was 12. Banger.)
6. Sick Of You - Selena Gomez (That one I never particularly loved, but it's not bad either; only time I don't skip it is when I'm only listening to Selena Gomez at the moment or when I'm shuffling everything and don't care)
7. Relax, Take It Easy - Mika (BANGER. CLASSIC. ABSOLUTE STAPLE. Could listen to it ALL. THE. TIME. and I actually DO. Unskippable. If you ever catch me skipping it I'm either in a REALLY bad mood or I've been replaced by a doppelganger. This song is my everything.)
8. Investigation ~ Cornered (Variation) - Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney OST (Another banger! Videogame soundtracks FUCK.)
9. Rio - Mika (Funfact: for some reason I have most songs from No Place In Heaven three times on my phone but I don't want to delete any of them bc I don't know which ones "belong together", which is such a stupid thing to worry about, but I just don't want to separate them. Anyway. Now, every time I shuffle my music and a song from this album comes up, I instinctively skip it bc it annoys me how often they play 💀💀💀)
10. Jubilife City (Night) - Pokémon Brilliant Diamond (I've never actually played Brilliant Diamond, I only had Diamond for the DS, but I love the remastered versions of most of the soundtrack, so this is the version I have on my phone <3)
Now would be the time for the "5 I actually listen to", but I really do listen to most of the music on my phone regularly, so I'm doing some honorable mentions instead:
Nobody Likes Me - The Northern Boys (No explanation needed, this is a straight up BANGER. Been listening to it a lot recently.)
Zenryoku Batankyu - AOP (That rainbow road sound effect in the background is what I live for.)
Halb So Schön - Wincent Weiss (For real?? I'm a bit embarrassed to say this. But I went to a Wincent Weiss concert the other night and I had so much fun!! Not all German pop music is good, but it's definitely catchy!)
Die Jungs-WG: Oh là là in Nizza (Banger intro for a banger Jungs WG season, sung by a former Jungs WG member from another banger season of Jungs WG (Deniz from Jungs WG Lissabon) 🕺🕺🔥🔥🔥)
Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses DS OST (I listened to it this morning and it's eerie and creepy and nothing you'd expect from the soundtrack of a Barbie GBA/DS game. It's perfect. <3)
Thanks again for tagging me @official-lauchzwiebel!! I had a lot of fun doing this! :-D
Tagging: @9puppiesdrowninginapool @jofngve @tofufei @frogtossing @berg-gry @thia-chattering @midnightxxcrisis @sauerland-2001 @bertie-w-wooster @hard-boiled-noodle and everyone who really likes and/or really hates at least one piece of music I've listed above <333

E + J + Q for the fanfic ask game
Thank you very much!
Hm, E and J ask about specific fics so without specifying, I'll just answer with the last fic I posted since it's on my mind lol.
E: If you wrote a sequel to [insert fic], what would it be about?
For Army Style, I think a sequel would have to be about Hawkeye being miserable in Crabapple Cove, probably dating a woman he's not that interested in and feeling stifled but safe, and some catalyst that inspires him to move back to the city and take his life back.
J: Write or describe an alternative ending to [insert fic].
lol I said I'd answer with Army Style, but that's actually kind of impossible for me since the whole point of the fic was to build up to the last line. But the way I write fic, this would be really hard to answer for any fic I wrote, because I tend to conceive of stories as like, puzzles where I have to find the perfect ending that caps the story. Which I know is not how fiction actually works lol, but idk thinking of it that way helps me finish things I think. But it also means that in my mind there are no alternate endings, there's only One True Ending.
Q: Do you have any discarded scenes/storylines/projects?
Lots, I have a doc full of deleted scenes and lines that I might want to repurpose in the future. And the way I write fic is by starting a wip every time I think of an idea, and then eventually discovering which ones actually make it to the end lol, so the vast majority of my projects eventually end up discarded. Just for an example, I have like two scenes written years and years ago of a Due South fic where Ray Vecchio takes Frannie to get an abortion, that was intended to sort of delve into the way Ray prioritizes people he loves over everything else because he should be pro-life as a catholic, but it's his sister so fuck it, it can't actually be wrong. Anyway I dropped that because writing was hard lol and now I have no motivation to write DS fic.
That said all discarded ideas may potentially be brought to life again if interest is renewed, so never say never.
