something about qbad mentioning how much horror he put red team thru every time purgatory gets brought up... something about how proud dapper was of him.
like this is just my late-night read but- it feels like guilt qbad is trying to twist into pride. he keeps needling away at it. “i killed them all, over and over and over again.” “they were hunted by a monster.”
it’s like- reassurance. like a nail he’s trying o beat into his head. he’s had SO much trouble with legitimately hurting his friends, despite making that vow all the way back when the eggs first went missing, despite all the tree talk and the promises to save the kids no matter what. He never faltered with elq, and that protected them. He keeps faltering now. Sometimes he doesnt remember the code, or cucurucho, or skeppy. But that doesnt matter, right? Because he’ll protect the eggs. He’ll be the monster. he is the monster. he can and he will protect them even as his seams start ripping and he keeps breaking further and further apart. even at his worst, he’ll do whatever he needs to protect the eggs.
he’ll be the monster. wont he?

Headcanon about Halbarry cooking.
Barry knows how to cook almost nothing, compared to Hal who actually and against everyone's expectations, including Barry's, is an amazing cook. Hal's bad reputation comes mainly from the fact that he is very absent-minded and forgets she is cooking something, mixes up the timing or is simply too busy complaining about someone or something to remember what he was doing before.
The only thing Barry beats Hal at is baking and making macaroni and cheese. Mac and cheese is Hal's favorite, mostly because it's the only thing her boyfriend can make without setting the kitchen on fire.
(This whole idea was born because I've been doing a lot of cooking lately).

*wistful* Any Cor/Ardyn thoughts? I miss them.
So I've been thinking of canon lately and how delicious this ship is from a canon perspective.
Because look - on one hand you have a man that was born to be king, you have someone whose crown was once gold and brilliant who is now confined to darkness when he was supposed to be light. Ardyn had everything torn away from him, his crown, his lover, his kingdom, his brother and if this were a different world perhaps he could have thought it was a string of bad luck.
But he has confirmation, he has confirmation that he is supposed to die. That he is the villain in this story. He knows the path he was headed down was dark but if he hadn't been left to suffer from the gods whimsy it might have been different-
So on one hand you have Ardyn.
On the other hand you have Cor. Cor whose loyalty is etched into the marrow of his bones. Cor who has killed for King and Country and would die for them if only he had been afforded the right. You have Cor who has sworn his loyalty to the grandchildren of Somnus and has outlived (or will outlive) every King he has been set to guard.
"Immortal" they call him yet he can be cut down just the same. It's not his fault everyone is so terribly bad at attempting to kill him.
You have a man who has been changed almost beyond recognition from what was done to him (Ardyn) and you have a man who despite the tragedy that informed his life has remained steadfast in his goals and loyal to those who deserve it.
Which is to say: I need them to see reflections of themselves and shades of those they love in each other and then I need them to bitch and snarl and make out about it.

okay so because previous anons asked about sex, I wanna ask about aftercare, how they act after sex? oh and i’m curious how their sex life change after being together for a while
xoxo <3
their aftercare isn't always aftercare-101, if i'm honest. theo is very bad at it and doesn't really... ever... do that for matthias. and matthias may be very good at giving aftercare but theo is incredibly resistant to it. i mentioned earlier that theo really gets off on praise, but... he also flinches away from it. he's so twisted up about so much of what he wants and he's really, uh... well. he makes it really hard to get close to him and offer comfort despite how much he desires it. matthias can't say certain things without scaring theo off (and i mean, like, theo will quite literally run away), so he has to talk around what he wants to say and what theo needs to hear to prevent theo from bolting before he can bring him down.
matthias takes a long time cleaning theo up and massaging his muscles after, and he'll hum or talk to himself in polish so theo knows he's still there touching him (but isn't stirred before he comes to himself on his own by english he can understand). when he's finished, he'll ask theo very simple yes or no questions that let matthias know how theo's feeling without outright asking how he's feeling. he also checks on theo throughout the day, but he has to be even more subtle there or theo starts to feel smothered. is your body okay? do you want me to get you dressed? does your head hurt? do you want me to read to you? he focuses on asking about the physical and what theo wants to do rather than theo’s emotions. matthias has learned that asking if theo's feeling okay after is a quick way to trigger a very, very negative response in theo. it's one of the reasons why i think matthias is constantly asking theo in the heat of sex how he's feeling, because that's when theo is so preoccupied by the physical aspect that the emotional effects leak out without him fighting to keep them in. it takes a few months for theo to get comfortable with the feelings he has after sex with him before matthias can really give him proper aftercare. that’s why the sex they have early on is never anything too crazy. matthias coaxes theo into a better place first.
i also think it’s important to clarify that it’s not like they’re always having kinky sex. still, theo usually needs physical touch after vanilla sex as well. matthias himself always craves conversation afterwards, so he waits for theo to stir awake (because he often falls asleep after sex) or come back into his body fully to talk to him.
as for changes to their sex life after they’ve been together for awhile… i believe i've talked about this before, but their sexual dynamic turns on its head after a few years. theo starts to take control of the reins and gets more comfortable asking for and doing what he wants. with theo he just has a lot holding him back and it's only after he's grown as a person and worked past a majority of his intimacy issues that he can act on the desires he's been burying waaay down. there's a sort of brattiness that theo starts to have a lot of fun with during sex—a lot of pushing and prodding, withholding, insulting... matthias is having the time of his life lmao, like he loves being challenged and pushed around. matthias takes on a more submissive role during sex as they age, which is fun for him. plus it's kind of the dynamic they've always had outside of sex anyway. of course, there are never any set roles in their sexual life so i'm not saying that it's always like that, but theo enjoys telling matthias what to do and how to do it. they have a lot of fun with it.
