Wish Rewrite
I have this tendency for rewriting material I either don’t like or think had wasted potential. At the time of writing this, Wish hasn’t come out in theaters but I did pirate it as there was an early screening. I also read the junior novelization and bought the concept art book. Needless to say, I was disappointed by what I read/saw.
I feel like Wish could’ve been better. Granted, the story and characters are not terrible, but they certainly leave much to be desired. This is literally Disney’s 100th anniversary, yet it doesn’t really feel like it. Not only that, but the movie felt incredibly rushed. Yeah I know that most Disney movies try have a run time of 90-100+ minutes, but I think a few more minutes could’ve been added to this film.
So, I decided to indulge myself and outline some changes that I think could’ve made the story slightly better. These ideas are by no means perfect, and in the end, this is all in good fun.
Spoilers ahead btw
The main story of Wish is essentially that Asha wants to get a job as Magnifico’s apprentice so that her grandfather’s wish is granted. But Asha finds out about the King’s true nature, and after questioning him, doesn’t get the job, and Magnifico vows to never grant Sabino or Sakina’s wishes.
Asha makes a wish on a star, and the star comes down, Magnifico tries to hunt down the two of them, he uses an evil spell book to create a staff, Magnifico destroys some wishes, Asha gets help from her friends, they sing a song to defeat Magnifico (I ‘wish’ i was joking), Star gives Asha a magic wand, and all is well.
Oh, and Amaya is… there.
It’s nothing complex, pretty cut and dry. And I don’t have a problem with a simple story! But this feels like it’s… missing something.
Firstly, I’d change the title. Disney already has a boat called Wish, and not every movie needs to be one word like Tangled, Frozen, and Brave (amongst others), so the story could be renamed “Asha and the Wishing Star” or “Asha and the Kingdom of Wishes”. Idk, something that evokes a classic fairytale book feel (or that does confuse people with a boat).
((Side note #1: I honestly enjoy that the story started off with a book, as a nod to classic disney movies, especially Snow White. That was cute))
Secondly, and I know I sound like a broken record at this point…
AMAYA👏🏼SHOULDVE👏🏼BEEN👏🏼A👏🏼VILLAIN👏🏼ALONGSIDE👏🏼HER👏🏼HUSBAND👏🏼
The original plan, according to the concept art book, was to have Magnifico and Amaya to be a villain couple who were partners in crime and owned a black sphinx cat named Charo. However for… reasons, the creators took the ‘safe’ route and made Amaya the good one out of the two.
But the problem is, by erasing Amaya’s evilness, the creators of Wish essentially removed any purpose or personality she may have had and thus, she was left to become a literal ‘supporting’ character. First supporting both Magnifico and Asha, then leaving Magnifico to prop up solely Asha.
Deadass, you can literally remove Amaya from the story and nothing would change. Which is probably why she was exempt from much of the promotional stuff minus the dolls. Because she literally serves no purpose but to be… there.
So, in my version of Wish, Amaya would be a co-conspirator to her husband and yes, I’m adding Charo too. Her personality would be inspired by classic female villains such as the Evil Queen from Snow White, Lady Tremaine from Cinderella, and Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty.
Vain, glamorous, cunning, and unabashedly evil, Amaya would be the Morticia to Magnifico’s Gomez, the brains to his brawn. She’s the girlboss, he’s the wife instigator. Magnifico spoils Amaya rotten with countless gifts and praises, whilst Amaya is the more calm and collected evil compared to her husband’s ever-growing temper.
While she starts the story with no magic, Magnifico just can’t leave his wife hanging and shares the power of the evil spell-book with Amaya. And yes, even Charo gets in on the fun, turning from a small house cat, to a massive shape-shifting beast who breaths blue fire similarly to a dragon (shut up i think it’d be cool)
Magnifico and Amaya essentially keep the wishes of Rosas locked in the castle as a form of obedience. By giving the citizens false hope, it makes them more dependent on the royal couple, and the two have more power over everyone.
Anyways, let’s get to the main characters: Asha and Star.
I don’t have much of an issue with Asha’s character, more so her design. I already made a post showing my redesign of her, so that’s out of the way. Tbh tho, I also have an issue with the rest of the costume design of Wish, being a big costume nerd myself. The movie’s supposed to take inspiration from the Mediterranean, primarily places such as Spain and Morocco (and the Amazigh people for Asha), but the fashion feels like generic European medieval fashion.
I feel like the whole storyline of Asha’s interview with Magnifico was pretty pointless, so I would have it that she just starts off as the kings apprentice, whilst also working as Amaya’s scullery maid.
The couple took Asha in when the girl lost her father at the age of 12 (according to the film), and she’s been working for them for five years. Asha works not only to support herself, her family, and her community, but also as a way to distract from the grief of losing her father. Which is no issue, as Amaya always bombards the girl with chores, and Magnifico only teaches Asha the most basic of magic for fear of her growing more powerful than him.
I made Asha work as a scullery maid not only as a reference to princesses such as Snow White and Cinderella starting off their respective stories as maids, but also because scullery maids acted as assistants to the kitchen maids. Dahlia works in the kitchen, Asha and Dahlia are best friends, I figured it made sense.
But anyways, on the day of Sabino’s 100th birthday, Sakina tells Asha to take a break and return home, as she hardly visits anymore due to work. Asha says she’ll try asking the king and queen to get off early, but that she can’t make any promises.
Asha meets with Magnifico and asks for the day off, but the king refuses. However, wanting to keep her loyalty, Magnifico finally shows Asha the wish chamber, and even allows her to witness the wish ceremony that night. But once Asha starts questioning the king on his methods, any goodwill between them begins to fade.
Another thing I’m disappointed in, is that originally Star was going to be a shapeshifting humanoid inspired by the Genie and Peter Pan, and may have even had a romance with Asha. But, the idea was scrapped for the more cutesy, ‘marketable’, version of Star.
In my retelling, I’d choose to do this human shapeshifter version of Star, but I’d name him something else. The star Earendel was mentioned in the concept art book, which is the farthest known star from Earth and not only means ‘morning star’ in Old English, but is also named after the Tolkien character, Eärendil.
I would call this shapeshifter Star Earen, and because Disney loves their animal/cute sidekicks, Earen can have the ‘Kirby’ Star as a companion, just like how Asha has Valentino and Magnifico and Amaya have Charo.
((Side #2: Anybody else notice that Star lowkey looks and sounds like Kirby😶))
Earen and Star journey down to Rosas once they hear Asha’s pleas for guidance. Once Asha tells of Magnifico and Amaya’s lies, Earen reveals that he actually met Magnifico decades ago. The amount of years shocks Asha, as she realizes that the King and Queen might be far older than what they are.
((Side note #3: I didn’t realize this till someone mentioned it, but if Sabino is 100 and he gave Magnifico his wish at 18, then he’s been waiting 82 years for his wish to be granted. Which means it’s likely that Magnifico might be immortal. That, or Disney didn’t think this shit through (most likely)))
Anyways, Earen actually attempted to stop Magnifico and Amaya’s ploy to keep the wishes of Rosas locked away, but he was sealed within the heavens until he and Star heard Asha make her wish.
We can have it that the king and queen spun the story so that Earen was made out to be an evil that once threatened Rosas, but Magnifico banished him and saved everyone, essentially making himself out to be the good guy and manipulating the narrative.
Asha and Earen must now work together to expose the lies of the royal couple, and along the way, the two begin to fall in love. Earen disguises himself as a peasant boy so as to remain inconspicuous, while Asha tries to go about her job as if nothing happened, evading the King and Queen’s suspicions.
Star gives Asha a stick infused with stardust once finding out she is, quite literally, the sorcerers apprentice. It is also so that she may defend herself, as Earen has his powers and a sword (similarly to Peter Pan).
Unlike Magnifico, Earen and Star teach Asha the wonders of magic and the potential she wields, showing that there is no need for her to hold back when her gift can help so many, including those she loves.
The three manage to sneak into the kings study, but only have time to retrieve Sabino’s wish and return it to him. However, Magnifico and Amaya, now strengthened by the powers of dark magic, find Asha and Earen and threaten to destroy all the wishes should Earen not surrender to them.
And as a way to ensure that Asha doesn’t foil their plans, Magnifico destroys both Asha and Sakina’s wishes, despite Asha not being eighteen yet. However, the evil magic allows him to do so. This act weakens the two women, and infuriates Earen.
Earen then willingly complies despite Asha’s opposition, and Sabino takes Asha and Sabina to the seven (well six) teens for aid, who are in hiding after Simon ratted them out and who now serves as a puppet to the king and queen.
Despite loosing her wish, Asha finds the strength to carry on through the memory of her late father, enlisting the help of her friends and Star, who managed to evade the royal couple’s grasp. The team must work together to save Earen, whose power will be drained by Magnifico and Amaya. And if such a feat were to happen, then Earen would die and Rosas would be lost.
The five teens go into the woods to distract one of the royals, with the aid of the forest fauna and Star. Amaya chases the group alongside Charo while Magnifico tortures Earen and begins stealing his power. With the help of Dahlia, Asha sneaks into the castle to confront her former mentor and save Earen before it’s too late.
At first, it seems that the heroes have the upper hand with Magnifico neutralized, but then, Amaya swoops in riding Charo, who now takes the form of a giant dragon. Earen transforms into a dragon himself and battles Charo and Amaya, while Asha continues battling Magnifico. Star even comes to help after the original plan fails.
However, the unholy trio have the upper hand, and Amaya strikes down Earen, giving Magnifico enough time to not only drain Earen’s power, but to trap Star within his staff. With their combined powers, Magnifico and Amaya gather all of the peoples wishes, even stealing the wishes of those not yet of age, which includes the teens.
With all the wishes gathered, the couple and their pet destroy all the wishes, taking their energy for themselves.
Asha falls into despair as she watched her friends, love ones, and community succumb to the grief of loosing their wishes. The king and queen force Asha to apologize to the people, mocking her and making her feel even more guilty.
However, Earen comforts Asha despite his weak state, telling her it’s alright and that she shouldn’t be ashamed of wishing on Star, as he brought the two of them together. The two kiss, the strength of their newfound love and hope shining through the darkness and inspiring the people of Rosas to rise up.
As the sky and stars become alive, Magnifico’s staff is destroyed, releasing Star in the process. All the evil magic he, Amaya, and Charo used is sucked out of them and vanquished, and Earen is restored to full vitality.
Think of this as the transformation scene from Princess and the Frog. Asha and Earen get new outfits, with Asha even gaining a crown and a new wand from Star.
((Side Note #4: The “transformation” in the finale of the film is so stupid. Asha could’ve literally gotten a new dress once she becomes a fairy godmother, but instead, Star just made her sparkly. How magical🙄))
Rosas rejoices, as they realize they don’t need the king to make their wishes come true, and they can pursue them themselves. With Magnífico and Amaya banished from Rosas, Asha and Earen become the new rulers, being names Prince and Princess respectively.
And that’s basically how I would’ve done Wish. It’s not perfect, but it’s just an idea. I’m just disappointed that Disney do something better for their 100th anniversary.

Honestly I'm honest to god bored rn so I'm just gonna like write random shit about genshin/hsr/zenless guys that are either self aware or not (idk I'm typing this as I go)
Fair warning some might end up as smut thoughts since I have no filter while waiting for 2.2 to come for star rail
Okay but like- Wrio is a beastman right? We're all in agreement about this aren't we? Like I know he doesn't have ears or a tail but if Lyney is blood twins with Lynette then that mean beastmen genes don't always show!! I know we classify beastmen as characters with those traits but realistically wouldn't any children with their blood be classified as that race? Since it's not a transformation thing within Hoyo then you can have the blood of one and not have the more showy traits. With these points in my I will always assume Wrio is a beastman YOU CAN'T CHANGE MY MIND I REFUSE TO DEBATE ON THIS
That said....does this mean Lyney has barbs-
COUGH OKAY ILL STOP MY BARBED LYNEY AGENDA LMAO
Actually speaking of cat like men, Jing Yuan really like sets me off. Idk how but I just see his face and I wanna punch it. He just very much gives me the vibes of liking tsuns and I hate that the dynamic in my head makes me go insane. LIKE THEY COULD BE THE MEANEST BITCH AND HE WOULD JUST BE HAPPILY SMILING CHEEKILY WHILE CUDDLING THEM AS THEY CHEW OUT SOMEONE. It sounds so cute.
Also like Ratio very much fascinates me, like Alhaitham. I just really wanna pick the brains of those that are super smart, probably cause it could lead me to somehow becoming more "normal" and smart dhskdhf. Though I don't with how abnormal they are, but still I would love to talk with them about how the difference in emotional and logical responses have their importance in certain situations and also how idiocy is more so curable if you can get past the human ego.
I honestly have no idea how the dynamic between me and them would be like. Alhaitham I feel like it would be a mix of how he is with Kaveh but also mixed with a dumber version of him.
Ratio....honestly I think he would just see me as an idiot and not want to be around me LMAO. Like I can be smart...in certain topics dhskdj. But that's mainly only in art, video games, and tons of random trivia for various things. If he asked me to solve something like in math, if it's isn't a simple equation (like middle school x=y bullshit easy) I got no fucking clue. I can do simple math fast (Fast Math my saving grace, where are my fellow Fast Math champions!), not human calculator fast but fast enough to be the first one to answer most of the time.
Though maybe talking about art could be my slight savior? Since while I don't know specifically physical art techniques (besides for maybe watercolor, but it's been years since I transitioned to digital), I do love the process of art very much. Not so much art history but more so just the passion into it it takes (it's why ai art pisses me off but I'd rather not get into that). Like the meaning or reason as to why someone created something. Why would someone create an image in one way? To experiment? Because why not?
I'm not smart enough to really get philosophical or anything, but I do enjoy talking about such things with others. Though even I need to get over my ego since sometimes I know I'll shut down conversations if I realize I'm sounding like an ignorant idiot (a real big problem I have. I just hate feeling like one so much because then I have a harder time expressing myself or I think the person looks down on me somehow).
Oh god I rambled a lot about these two and myself dhskfjfk. Either way, I think I could at least be able to converse with them. But who knows if they would have positive feelings with me.
Moving topics LYCAON BEING FERAL- cough. Okay but come on!!! Like even his introduction gave hints of him being less refined as he shows himself. I WANNA SEE IT. While I love characters that are like this I just also want to know what makes them tick I WANNA BE THE ONE TO FIND AND PUSH THOSE BUTTONS. Like I don't want them to hate me oh no, but I just wanna see them snarl and rage in combat. WHAT REALLY MAKES ME CRAZY IS WHEN THEY DO GO BATSHIT ITS TO PROTECT THEIR LOVED ONES GOD AAAA
Ahem, anyway-
Honestly if in a self aware au I wonder how Lyney and Arlecchino would feel about the player simping over them both. Like how awkward would that be???? Idk if I could face them if I was isekaied into genshin because of this.
Actually I wouldn't be able to face anyone in genshin or Star Rail cause I've said SO MUCH DIRT ABOUT MYSELF AS I PLAYED, EVERYONE WOULD JUST KNOW ABOUT WHO ID WANT TO FUCK AND WHAT MY HC OF THEM WERE GOD. I would permanently live in the isolation just so I could avoid any possible looks of disgust or curiosity because I REFUSE TO TALK ABOUT IT.
It would really be hard with the characters I like because I'm already running away from them on sight, I don't need that to make me even more embarrassed.
Actually now thinking about it....I wanna know how certain characters would react if someone was running away from them on sight because they're too scared to interact because of their crush on the characters. That sounded really weird but hopefully someone gets what I mean. Cause this is me with like....almost all the guy characters in both games lmao. And some girl characters too.
I just have this thought process of like "Oh there's no way someone likes me like that, I'm too weird and loud for most." Which causes me to avoid them because if I have a crush then that means it's gonna be obvious and everyone will know, so I have to prevent that by not being around them at all!
This is mainly for fictional characters and scenarios btw, not real life. In real life I still think this way but I don't avoid people, that's rude.
I've actually had this scenario talk with my friend and it's really funny just how much I would think about avoiding the characters I love.
Like going around the chasm just to avoid having to go to Gandharva Ville to avoid Tighnari LOL. Even thought of a plan of, since that first plan of avoiding the place would fail after testing, us going there at night hoping he's not on night watch and getting a night watch ranger to escort us to the main city.
Or that fact that I would sit at the very back of the theater just so Lyney wouldn't see me in the crowd (would most likely fail) and also happily knowing I got no shot going on stage since it's a 1/168 chance (yes I counted the seats, this excludes the balcony section).
I could probably write a whole self indulgent series of how the reader would avoid certain characters and most likely fail at it. I would want to make it romantic since while I think realistically I don't think the characters would like me back, I am unfortunately a simp so I have this pesky hope of maybe.
Anyway there's your idea dump

Valentines Special
Happy belated Valentines loners. This is just a small drabble of my current obsession because uuuuuuuuuhhhhhhh-.......... I can?
Sure. That's an answer.
So have some Soundstar because those fuckers deserve it.
♡♡♡♡♡
"Hello Cat~" Starscream purred, wrapping an arm around the lithe frame from the side. Soundwave sighed upon hearing the nickname, but still snuggled into him.
"Apologies for being late. Megatron has been off galavanting somewhere all day and made me do his daily work, along with my own." Soundwave knew that of course, he was assigned his Lord's work as well.
"But!" He spun the TIC around and took away the datapad he was working on, "I'm here now!"
In his other servo, hiding behind his back, he showed off two cubes. "And I brought high grade~"
😏 appeared on his visor. He laid his arms on Starscream's shoulders to lower him, then pressed their forehelms together. The action elicited a spark of electricity, and Starscream smiled.
This was an old action from eons ago, long before the war, called bunting. It wasn't a form of emotional connection like sparkbonding, it was just to show affection. But as time went on, Cybertronians were shown another action called "kissing". They started doing that instead, and bunting was forgotten by most of the population.
Soundwave always had his visor on, and Starscream understood he wasn't ready to show his face yet, so they had taken up the old "tradition" as a substitute. It would do for now.
Starscream returned the charge and it became a back and forth until he was gently pushed onto the edge of the berth, and Soundwave placed himself onto his lap and sent more electric charge.
"Suppose we won't be needing the high grade then." Starscream mumbled, having dropped said cubes to hold his beloved's waist and kissed the top of his visor. "Happy Valentines~"
Now travelling down his neck cabling, Soundwave dug nimble fingers into Starscream's transformation seams. He shivered.
"Did you like my- present?"
Starscream seemed to be in a daze. "Hm? Oh, you mean the letter? Yes, it was... quite flattering, I must say-" Soundwave suddenly ceased all actions, then reared back to look him dead in the optic.
"What- letter?"
His smile faltered. "That... wasn't you? Well that... actually makes more sense-"
"What. Letter." He played again with more punctuation. Starscream averted his gaze, then a moment later Soundwave received a ping from him. He'd forwarded the letter.
"I had assumed this was your attempt at being romantic. But it seems I was incorrect." He wasn't even listening, just reading it over.
A love confession. By a "secret admirer".
...
Oh that fragger's dead.
Soundwave jumped up and headed for the door. "Soundwave? Soundwave where are you going!?" Starscream stumbled after him. He grabbed his wrist and pulled him back.
"Soundwave just forget about it! Don't let it ruin tonight!" A burst of static, his version of a yell, scream etc.
"I'm sure whoever wrote it meant it as a joke. I mean, did you see the list of what they claimed to love about me? While it is true, you can tell they were trying too hard."
They would soon find out he was wrong. Apparently one of the drones, Steve or something, had developed a "crush" on him. Soundwave almost threw him off the ship.
Soundwave still looked upset, and Starscream sighed. "Soundwave..."
He kissed the top of his visor. "I don't care about that letter."
He kissed the right side. "I don't care about this so called 'secret admirer'."
He kissed the left. "I don't want you to worry about it."
He gently rested their helms together. "You don't need too. It implies you have competition, and you sure as the pit don't have competition." Soundwave angled his head, and Starscream knew he was glaring at him. Did he say something wrong?
"I only want you. I only need you. Primus Soundwave I lo-"
His mind froze, but his vocalliser didn't get the message. "-ooooooooooooovvvvvveee..... y-you." He drew out the word, then glanced at Soundwave's reaction.
There wasn't one. He just stared at him, his field completely shrunk in.
Well what was he supposed to do now!?
He found himself slowly taking his servos and intertwining their fingers. Should he just commit?
"I... love... you. I love you." He repeated, like he himself were coming to the realization.
Soundwave stared a little longer, and then his field quite literally exploded and he'd never felt so much love directed to him in his entire life -dear Primus that's actually a little too- and Soundwave pounced on him. They were knocked back on the berth and Starscream was smothered in electric kisses. He laughed.
"Yes yes Cat, secret's out, there you go!"
The night continued as they'd interpreted it, but now with Soundwave being the happiest he'd ever seen him. And by the end when they were drifting off, he heard him quietly play back "I love you."
♡♡♡♡♡
The next day Starscream entered his quarters to gather some old datapads, when he saw a box on his desk.
The gift from Soundwave.
Figuring he had time, he opened the box and peered inside. "Oh no." He chuckled as he pulled out his gift, which activated under his touch.
An animatronic cat, about the size of his servo, with a little visor just like Soundwave's. It tilted its head at him, then rubbed against his outstretched thumb while rumbling. No- it was purring.
"Cat, you absolute imbecile!" He laughed. He looked back at the box and saw a little holocard with a message. Reading over it, his smile grew.
"You idiot Cat I love it. I love him. Primus I love him." He laughed, placing the card down and taking his new "pet" to keep somewhere safe.
For when you feel lonely and thinking about me😺
Happy Valentines���

astielle chapters 19 & 20 spoiler askdump! here's some that are only kind of a spoiler.
Anonymous asked:
Well that was a bloody ominous ending to a chapter now wasn't it.
@imrix asked:
For the CH.20 ask roundup, I provide only the following: Oh No.
Tumblr media
Anonymous asked:
I can't even get through the first paragraph of Astielle without wanting to cry. "Taurils are the most feared monsters" / he made himself FAST and STRONG to save his FRIENDS (and look sexy, just a little bit). [CRYING FOREVER]
@kayintruth asked:
I’m rereading Astielle again, and *this* line struck me: “He looked down at his hands, and then down further at his other hands. “Mother Void,” he swore. “Why is it always—this is fine.” He crossed his upper arms and then his lower ones. He uncrossed his lower arms and put them on his hips. “I have to figure out what to do with four of them now,” he muttered before sighing.” Given your reaction that adorable fanart of a brute long with a cat’s tail, is it possible that Karzarul is also expressing your feelings a little bit here? ;)
the worst part about quitting smoking is figuring out what to do with my hands
@kayintruth asked (putting these all together haha):
Also realizing: “Despite their differences she had learned to recognize the Tauril as a bigger, more bovine version of his Impyr face.” + “Oh, yeah, I kinda see it,” Vaelon agreed. “It’s like me, if I were some kind of a sexy cow man.” So K’s Impyr form just straight up has Vaelon’s face, then hmm? So we can conclude that Vaelon was a sexy, sexy man from Min and Leo’s reactions then XD I meant we knew that anyway, but it *does* make more sense why the moon wanted to Get It so bad XD
(Last one for now, sorry to spam lol) ““Does any of this look familiar?” he asked. The way he asked was semi-suspicious, and left her wondering if there was a correct answer she was meant to know.” + ““You have princey hair,” she said. “What?” He grabbed a fistful of white strands to bring in front of his face, confirming that they curled. “Why would I—do you like it?”” … K’s checking to see if he look like Kavid or Leonas, right? And if I’m wrong that his hair is curly because he’s already manifesting how attractive he finds Leo, please don’t tell me :p
;3c
Okay, I lied, I have one more: I *really*, *really* want the Karzarul/ Leonas enemy tension to get broken by Leonas claiming Karzarul as “his”. Like, “you think I’m selfish. Fine. *you’re* mine, and I’m going to *keep* you, and shut up you don’t get to argue”. Like, selfish in the best way, and Karzarul finally gets that princely D that he is secretly desper- ahem, that he deserves
;3c
@kayintruth asked:
Re: Astielle I am just agog at your ability to seed little things for the reader to pick up on and feel clever about figuring out. Just read Lynnette’s line “if he tries to wear your face, I’m going to kill him” + knowing Karzarul’s Impyr face just *is* Vaelon’s face + Karzarul *did* kill Lynette just made me make a soft very high pitch eeeeeeee sound with my hand clamped over my mouth. Calling it now: Vaelon’s going to get lost in Void magic and start doing mad destruction to something Lynette can’t let go, like her people; she has to kill him to stop him, and Karzarul kills her in revenge. And that will be why Karzarul defines the Hero as “selfless”- because he didn’t have enough Self to stop the destruction before Lynette had to stop him :(( I’m so afraid for the next chapter lol
@ultragenta asked:
blah blah blah 1000 fallen stars this true collectible ending that the REAL dark horse here is those terms and conditions. you cant tell me even one of those three parts of a whole idiot read that thing the whole way through!!! im calling it now theyre gonna find the terms and conditions and send it to dee the tax lady and shes gonna find them some kind of threesome loophole
Tumblr media
@vasinvivian asked:
Wait a second, it was Starsword from day one! It was never a voidsword!
;3
@ceruleanvulpine asked:
idk if you’ve read peter wimsey but “you saved me”/“you weren’t the one dying” and “all you have to do is ask”/“i would never put you in that position” is making me feral in the same way as the main relationship in those books where the two characters get stuck in relationship limbo for like five years because they’re tangled in a web of personal debt and societal expectations and can’t bear the idea of obligating the other one to do anything? anyway i love . ancient trio
the first time i read whose body i thought dorothy sayers intended there to be subtext between wimsey and bunter. in my defense peter saw a naked corpse and his immediate response was "that can't be the right victim, just take a good look at his dick". this is only tangentially related to your ask.
Anonymous asked:
Ok, ok, 1) oh my god the names of the names of the Taurils, I had to to stop reading and go back to chapter 17 and match them up (oh my god, Rex/Reckless jumping off of things...I'm cackling), 2) I thought maybe I suspected from earlier chapters but didn't want to jinx it, gods all *bless* you for making Vaelon ace, 3) oh my god, you three idiots (but especially Lynette and Karzarul) need to freaking *communicate,* 4) oh no, oh no, this is about to go so very wrong... :(
@bitternest asked:
"I would rather have the reality of you, if I have you at all.” “You say that,” he said, “right up until you see other people looking at me the way you look at me.” She drummed her fingers on the bottle. “I’m not other people.” GOD. CHRIST. GOD IN HEAVEN.WHY ARE YOU SO GOOD AT THIS
Anonymous asked:
You know. Karzarul might have been less SECRETIVE (which could have led to fewer PROBLEMS) if the two main formative influences in his life hadn't constantly SHUT HIM DOWN when he SHARED things or looked to them for APPROVAL. (*whispers* Karzarul Defense Squad™ represent!) Lynette could also benefit from being more open.
Anonymous asked:
I feel sorry for Lynette... Trapped by her own expectations. Stuck in that castle without access to people she actually likes. Just endless work and politics, never taking a vacation to go on a quest. But also I'm pretty sure she was shooing Vaelon away from that warroom for a reason. She knows she's not making a good decision.
@satanstuckathome asked:
Every chapter of astielle hurts me more in the best ways. I’m scared that either ari or linette are going to kill the other and then vaelon will kill the winner and then himself. My poor poor babies… On the other hand apparently “hit it with a sword until it dies” was there from the beginning and I love it
Anonymous asked:
love that the monsters are giving themselves xenoblade monster nicknames (like "Indomitable Tauril")
Tumblr media
the real mvp
also the idea of monsters using the name of their monster type as a family name is very funny to me. there's a monster compendium somewhere like "Reckless Taurils can easily be kited into environmental hazards" but it's actually just the one guy and that's his name. and it adds a fun layer to karzarul taking ____ form. imagine if regular shapeshifters used that when becoming different kinds of human. "he changed from nguyen form into smith form". like it's not exactly the same obviously but culturally for monsters you have to imagine it's funny.
Anonymous asked:
The fact that "Indie" is short for "Indomitable" is very cute.
Anonymous asked:
The fact that "Rex" comes from "Reckless," on the other hand, is HILARIOUS.
Anonymous asked:
"Black Drakonis was a little trickier to manage, but once they’d built her a castle to protect she’d been content to stay on the mountain." OOOH! First female monster! (Perhaps because her form was made specifically for Lynette?)
the nonphysical aspects of monsters (personalities, psychology, etc) have been established as being influenced by whatever he was going for/trying to achieve at the time that he made it. with drakonis he was going for:
big
terrifying
scary
will see your crimes
will murder you for them
Defend Home
and apparently some part of his hindbrain went. "i must become... womanly. with legs for days."

Ranking the Lovelink Matches (a completely subjective list by moi)
22. Clementine Hill / Grace Kim
I already wasn’t into her because she’s a privileged rich girl who uses literary quotes to seem smart (but really it’s just obnoxious). But then she tells us she’s thinking about dumping us for her creepy old professor?? Girl needs an actual job so she can stop relying on her parents and a therapist for her daddy issues. 
21. Dominic Wright / Adam Johnson
I’m still pretty early on in the storyline here but so far I’m just bored. A “love” photography theme? Big yawn.
20. Liam Park / Min-Jae Lee
How Is Dating A K-Pop Star This BORING
19. Jake Gonzales / Zayn Kassab
The sexting is fun but honestly his film project sounds terrible and he needs to cool his feelings down like 200%. 
18. Angel Reed / Emmalyn Roberts
Look she’s amazing and gorgeous and the animals are ADORABLE but honestly I find her pretty boring compared to the other matches SORRY DON’T HATE ME
17. Antoine Dawson / Noah Cruz
He comes on too strong a lot but I dig the puppies and the sexual tension. I would absolutely enter a FWB relationship with him but nothing more. 
16. Albert Bishop / Jonathan Hayes
This ranking is subject to change bc tbh I swiped left on these boys at first (#fuckamericanimperialism). But then other matches finished up and I needed more content and y’know what? Albert’s pretty okay. I like his backstory so far and he’s sweet and sexy. Should def get out of the military tho. 
15. Stefan Silver / Oliver Black
I appreciate that he’s a more consent-friendly version of Christian Gray and I like the “defrosting ice king” trope. But I would much rather be using the riding crop on him than vice versa. >:)
14. Jamie Grant / Seth Evans
Jamie is kind of a weird match in that I LOVE his storyline but also the flirting is pretty weak?? Like, I literally would have had to pay gems for the first “date”. I’m not feeling much of a sexual connection here, but I’m all aboard the hacker kidnapping storyline. 
13. Austin Russo / Damien Jones
He’s rough around the edges but the character growth is pretty spectacular. Gotta save my boo from death row. 
12. Sam Knight / Michael Evans
Never thought I’d be into a jock frat boy but here we are. I like how I snarked at him constantly for a week and he still fell for me. Ghosting us after we call him out on his daddy issues is pretty weak tho. 
11. Samantha Clark / Aesha Nora
Okay she isn’t the greatest person or partner but cute gamer gf?? Yes please. And she can cook and bench press me too! *swoon* Also Fiction needs to be real asap. 
10. Sage Foster / Vitoria Voznesenky
Sage was one of my first matches and was my favorite for a while. Who doesn’t want a hot goth gf? But then she PUNCTURED MY LIP (does that even heal??) and almost ate me and I’m just not about that. Hopefully she can go give Baba Yaga a talking to and get that curse removed.
9. Skylar Quinn / Jaden Bower
So making us commit a crime and then ditching us on the first date wasn’t cool, and I’m not much for a “rebel without a cause,” but then Skylar hit me with his tragic backstory and, well, I’m weak y’all. Also he’s so smart and snarky and sexy and I want him to achieve his dreams.
8. Eve Rockwood / Alice Martin
Look I’m still pissed at Eve for ditching us in Ibiza. But also I would absolutely drop everything to follow a hot girl to Japan. 
7. William Crome / Julien Alexandre
I was never really into the whole dating a vampire thing but William just does it for me. I think it’s the hair and the old timey fashion. And he told off his mom for me, which is more than I can say about SOME of these matches.
6. Hugo Hornsby / Marco Bottazzi
Hugo is lowkey a garbage human who absolutely emotionally cheated on his long-term fiance with us. So why do I love him so much?? Idk, could be my trash taste in men, could be my love of geeks, could be the delicious drama of his plotline. Hugo pls come back from ur convo with ur fiance and d*ck us down already. 
5. Kayla Summers / Jasmin Medina
Kayla/Jasmin is objectively the most badass match in Lovelink. She’s hot, ambitious, and didn’t ghost me for a dumb reason. She can kill it in heels AND kill actual killers! Get you a girl who can do both!
4. Raphael Becker / Wyatt Moore
The creepy cult plot is fascinating and Raph is the perfect combination of sweet/romantic and hott. That dream date was amazing. Pls Lovelink, when will my husband* come back from the war**?
* musician boyfriend
** creepy cult village
3. Ryan Byrne
Ryan is lowkey my perfect guy--sweet, nerdy, and SO SEXY OMG. I need his sex scene so bad pls. Also he might have caused the zombie apocalypse and that’s very interesting of him. I’m hooked on his story and I want his **** hooked in my *****. 
2. Milena Sarafian / Ana Samarine (also maybe the same route as Ruby Thomas and Julia Greene?? Idk I’m pretty confused by this whole situation)
Apparently my ideal type is an adorable yet sexy computer who discovers love and how to be human through interacting with me. I should probably go watch that Her movie.
1. Cpt. Muffin
CAT. SHY BOY. <3.

Cordelia Goode Playlist
Tumblr media
Masterlist
I’m sharing these so I have post schedullleeedd for my days oooofffff. They most likely won’t be popular but it’s all good :) I’m going to put little baby reasoning since this is a thicc list
Playlist link
Also if you guys want more character playlists go check out @make--your--life--spectacular​ ‘s playlists. Here’s links to Ally and Venable :)
“Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac
Now here I go again I see the crystal visions I keep my visions to myself It's only me who wants to wrap around your dreams And have you any dreams you'd like to sell? Dreams of loneliness
So the first few songs all kind of have the same reasoning and that is witchy vibes. You can’t have a Cordelia playlist without some Fleetwood Mac
“Rhiannon” by Fleetwood Mac
She is like a cat in the dark and then She is the darkness She rules her life like a fine skylark and when The sky is starless
The ultimate witchy vibes song
“Seven Wonders” by Fleetwood Mac
So it's hard to find Someone with that kind of intensity You touched my hand I played it cool And you reached out your hand for me But if our paths never cross Well you know I'm sorry but If I live to see the seven wonders I'll make a path to the rainbow's end I'll never live to match the beauty again The rainbow's end
We love our talented Supreme
“Has Anyone Ever Written Anything for You” by Stevie Nicks
Has anyone ever given anything to you In your darkest hours Did you ever give it back Well, I have I have given that to you If it's all I ever do This is your song
This song is so preetttttyyyyyy. I feel like this would be one of Cordelia’s favorites
“The Witch Queen of New Orleans” by Redbone
Dime or a nickel any one could buy Voodoo of any kind She had potions and lotions, herbs and tanna leaves Guaranteed to blow your mind Early one mornin' into mucky swamp dew Vanished Marie with hate in her eyes Though she'll never return all the Cajuns knew A witch queen never dies
This song talks about Marie Laveau and idk witch vibes. Cordelia is also the witch queen while Marie is the voodoo queen
“girls” by girl in red
I shouldn't be feeling this But it's too hard to resist Soft skin and soft lips I should be into this guy But it's just a waste of time He's really not my type I know what I like No, this is not a phase Or a coming of age This will never change
A lot of songs just make me think of bb Cordelia
“Loving Is Easy” by Rex Orange County
Loving is easy You had me fucked up It used to be so hard to see Yeah, loving is easy When everything's perfect Please don't change a single little thing for me
Soft gal loving. Prime happy Cordelia vibes
“i wanna be your girlfriend” by girl in red
I don't wanna be your friend I wanna kiss your lips I wanna kiss you until I lose my breath I don't wanna be your friend I wanna kiss your lips I wanna kiss you until I lose my breath
Teen AU Cordeliiiaaaa
“Glory Box” by Portishead
I just want to be a woman From this time, unchained We're all looking at a different picture Through this new frame of mind A thousand flowers could bloom Move over, and give us some room, yeah
HOW CAN I NOT PUT THIS SONG ON HERE?? This is one of my favorite songs they have ever used on the show
“you’re my world” by atlas
You were my earth You were the planet You were the grass The wind and tides And now that you're gone I feel so out of place And now that you're gone I'm just driftin' through space
Anngsssttt
“If We We’re Vampires” by Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit
It's knowing that this can't go on forever Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone Maybe we'll get forty years together But one day I'll be gone Or one day you'll be gone
I’m going to use my reasoning from my other post about this song.
Cordelia knows that one day she will die. There will be another Supreme after her and she can’t live forever. This is her coming to terms with the fact that maybe it’s for the best that she won’t stay around forever. Not being immortal allows her to live in the moment and savor all the time she has.
“Red (Demo Version)” by Miki Ratsula
Stars light up the sky, the clock strikes twelve Adventure in sight, the hours melt Ben Howard plays, she sings along I look to my left and fall in love
When she leans in for a red light kiss And places her love on my lips Hearts and lungs increase in pace Passion overwhelms our space But, the corner of my eye lights up in green This fragile moment woken by reality Our lips depart, our breathing slows as I wait again To kiss her lips, when the light turns red
Soft teen Cordelia vibes
“Planets of the Universe - Demo” by Fleetwood Mac
I will never love again the way I loved you You will never rule again the way you've ruled We will never change again the way we are changing Oh, you'll forget the chill of love but not the strain
One of my favorite songs. The demo is my favorite version of it because it feels so raw? Like the emotions in it and also young Stevie sounds like a cutie at the beginning and end when she’s talking to Christine.
In general this is also has Cordelia vibes too lol
“18″ by 5 Seconds of Summer
I'm not old enough for her I'm just waiting till I'll eighteen I think she wants to get with me But, she's got a job in the city And she says that she's always too busy She's got a naughty tattoo In a place that i wanna get to
Being a student at the Academy and having a thing for Ms Headmistress Cordelia
“House of the Rising Sun” by Lauren O’Connell
It's one foot on the platform The other's on the train I'm going back to New Orleans To wear that ball and chain
Witchy woman
“Bad Liar” by Selena Gomez
I was walking down the street the other day Tryna distract myself But then I see your face Oh wait, that's someone else Ohh, tryna play it coy Tryna make it disappear But just like the battle of Troy There's nothing subtle here In my room there's a king size space Bigger than it used to be If you want you can rent that place Call me an amenity Even if it's in my dreams
Nervous Cordelia trying to hide her feelings. Possibly Teen Cordelia?
“Nervous - Acoustic” by Gavin James
'Cause every time I saw you I got nervous Shivering and shaking at the knees And just like every song I haven't heard yet no I didn't know the words in front of me In front of me, and oh But I don't wanna know Who'll take you home?
Season three shy gal
“Mariposa” by Peach Tree Rascals
I can't wait for you To come my way I've been far away But I'll keep runnin' Just to find a way to you til' then
Cordelia will do her damn best to get to her love. Don’t mess with her b.
“Sweet Love of Mine (Acoustic)” by Joy Williams
When you found me I was all alone The whole world around me And nowhere to call home I heard your voice sing like heaven's choir Gathered up my fears and threw them in the fire
Oh my darling, sweet love of mine I'll hold you all through the night
I don’t think this is what the song is technically about but it makes me think of Cordelia finding someone that finally loves her and helps her love all of the things that Fiona made her self conscious about.
“Hurts Like Hell - OurVinyl Sessions” by Fleurie
I don't want them to know the secrets I don't want them to know the way I loved you I don't think they'd understand it, no I don't think they would accept me, no
I loved, and I loved and I lost you
Dreams fight with machines Inside my head like adversaries Come wrestle me free Clean from the war Your heart fits like a key Into the lock on the wall
This song makes me think of Misty x Cordelia or angsty teen au Cordelia. I can also cry on demand if this song is playing
“Waiting Room” by Rex Orange County
Our family reunion I'd rather be anywhere but here It's like a pain you shouldn't ignore But my uncle's here to open the door, and I don't like him This family reunion I felt so uncomfortable, I left They all decided to stay So it's just me and my mistakes And I'd like to know that you smile when you're alone And when you need time to yourself Remember me, I won't be anyone else I'm just the boy you love
And my lover, my best friend When I heard that you don't know why you're here I fell face down And became one with the ground And my lover's best friend
Cordelia’s hella dysfunctional family and just yeah
“Fancy Shoes” by The Walters
Let's go walking in the city tonight You wear the dress that makes you look so nice Like my fancy shoes I wore them just for you Tell me why all the good ones go Well I don't know but I want it to somehow change I'll be a better man if you just stay
This one I don’t have much of an explanation for besides vibes
“Common Sense” by Joshua Bassett
Common sense tells me kiss the girl goodbye Common sense tells me leave it all behind Common sense says the girl's not worth my time But common sense ain't common when you come to mind
Delia madly in love
“I Talk to the Sky” by Maddy Estelle
I write down things I wish I could say to you I talk to the sky I collect words I wish I could give to you I talk to the sky, I talk to the sky The sky doesn't say a word
Cordelia after she’s lost her loovee the annggsstt but sis is getting a happy ending
“Two Straws” by Also Joe
You've been on my mind In rain and sunshine You've got the sweetest smile that I've ever laid eyes on You make me dance And I make you laugh But nothin puts me in a better mood than being loved by ya This is the love that I've been dreaming of
Delia after falling really really hard

Review Replies for The Second Law Chapter 15
Thanks to the following awesome people for reviewing chapter 15: LunarMagnolia, RogueSareth, Rosenthorne, KairaB, Lady_Experiment, Star-gazer, AfroditeOhki, EllieDoll, RandomBystander, Sachianna, AGreekDemigod, Wallflwr97, NickyADon, Brynn, Espanholina, Geeeny, dancingmagicmyths, Bieslook, and Justice_not_Revenge! I really appreciate your feedback and read each comment to better understand what people may be looking for in this story and what questions and expectations are. So thank you for helping me to write this story!
You can read individual review replies below! :)
LunarMagnolia: As always, thank you so much for your extensive feedback and thoughts on the last chapter! I’m really excited that you like the inclusion of the generals (I hope to include them more as time goes on), and how Lotor is characterized in this fic. Because I want Lotor to feel familiar? But to also expand his character too, given how much his imprisonment might have altered him. And ahhh I’m so glad you enjoyed the addition of Coran! He just wrote himself in doing that—I didn’t really plan for it, haha. But I’m glad it happened. Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!
RogueSareth: Thank you so much for continuing to read and review after all of this time. I really appreciate it!
Rosenthorne: Gosh, it does sound nice, haha. I’m making myself hungry with all of this talk about soup. Thank you for returning to read and review!
KairaB: Ahhh thank you for returning to read and review after so long! Sorry that my update schedule for this story has been less than stellar lately, averaging like….one chapter every four months, oof. But it really means a lot that you’ve maintained interest! I really like seeing Allura and Lotor getting closer too. They’re kind of just writing themselves in all of these conversations, so I’m really curious about what they might do next, lol. Thank you again for your reviews!
Lady_Experiment: Yooo! You know Lotor’s secret about the tea is going to come back to haunt him at some point, haha. And yaaas, Coran definitely does take on some Uncle Iroh vibes here. XD Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!
Star-gazer: Thank you, and thanks so much for continuing to read and review this story!
AfroditeOhki: Oh gosh, yeah, Allura def deserves a whole village taking care of her after all she’s done to protecc them all, guh. And ahh I hope you enjoy the movie selected for this next round—Lotor definitely had to come back to the family here even just for that, lol. Thank you so much for reading and reviewing this story still, into year two of its life!
EllieDoll: Thank you so much for that high praise, and guh, I hope this story can continue to help make future days fun! The generals are def fun to write, haha—I’m confident we’ll see more of them, as we will Coran Coran the Healer Man, bless that title omg. And ahhh, I know this story started off as mostly Lotor whump and hurt/comfort, lol, but it really has been fun to reverse the roles and have him comforting our sick princess—while also still bantering with her, lol. As always, thanks so much for all of your support!
RandomBystander: Thank you very much for that kind review, and I’m so happy you’re enjoying the story! I really appreciate your feedback.
Sachianna: Yooo belle + beast vibes is the equivalent of the 100 emoji, blessss!! That’s a great movie, yas, as is Mulan. I would love to see the paladins bursting into song over those, and Lotor’s ears flicking back in just total bewilderment, lol. I really appreciate your support on this story and for reading and reviewing!
AGreekDemigod: asd;jfa;sldfj this is basically your lotura bible? Omg, wow, that is a very high compliment, and I hope to continue to do it justice! I think it’s really fun to write battle scenes, lol, but somehow these characters just kinda write themselves too, so I’m just along for the ride! I definitely think we’ll be seeing more of the generals, and I haven’t forgotten about Adam either! Thank you so much for rereading this story and dropping me a review—it means a lot!
Wallflwr97: Ahh fluff and angst (flangst?) is one of my favorite genres, haha! Yaas, I really enjoy writing this version of Lotor because he’s just got so many stress points to explore, LOL. But gosh, he’s  definitely struggling with how to feel for Allura—maybe watching another movie could help something! As always, thanks so much for reading and reviewing my work. I really appreciate your support too—because that def keeps me inspired and engaged in this ship! So do know just how much you contribute as well! <3
NickyADon: Bless omg, I can see Lotor saying that too and being a very smug brat about it while Allura just starts sputtering, lol. About Keith and Acxa, I definitely do have them set up as a bit of a foil for each other—I always thought that was interesting Acxa’s VA said they were supposed to be shipped, when I was worried that maybe they might be siblings, LOL. And ahhh omg, yaaas I love a Lotor and Shiro friendship—I would have loved to see them grow to be good friends! Thank you so much for always reading and reviewing this story! (And yoo I do love me a more complex and damaged Lotor too, lol!)
Brynn: Yoooo bless you and your extensive reviews, as always! About Allura’s missing piece in her quintessence field, it’s hinted at within the chapter, but Lotor hasn’t put two-and-two together yet either. So it hasn’t been fully revealed yet, but the topic will definitely come back to explain what the effect is on Allura as well. And gosh, I love writing Allura and Lotor arguing, lol—idk why, but they kinda just write themselves bantering, so I go along with it. I think they almost need to argue over even the petty things, given how much tension has been between them, haha. I think it helps to release some of that built-up tension. And ahh we’ll definitely see more of Lotor’s Generals as the story goes along—and more Lotor and team Voltron shenanigans too. Thank you so much for reading and reviewing!
Espanholina: Gosh yeah, I feel like canon Allura really undervalues her own life a lot, so I feel like Lotor would be incensed by this. But yaaaas dat mate bond is def growing, and we’ll continue to see it result in some things, even in this upcoming chapter! Allura’s missing piece of quintessence will also reappear as a plot point, muahahaha. And yaaas, they’re getting along again finally—even if they are still a bit jabby at times, XD. “Coran’s Ipurim Trade,” loll omg yas please! That is so cute! Thank you so much as always for reading and reviewing!
Geeeny: LOL I got such a giggle from your reviews, bless and thank you! For as serious as the topics are in this story, I also really like to try having things that lighten the mood, so Lotor liking and using cat memes just makes me feel so warm and fuzzy, haha. I really appreciate your high compliments as to my work, and I hope they can continue to be meaningful for you. Thank you again for your support and reviews!
Dancingmagicmyths: Yoooo bless omg! Okay so when I started this fic, I really did intend it to be focused on just Lotor and Allura. But then the more I got to writing the paladins, the more I realized how much fun it is to have a whole found family interacting together, so I’m really excited that you’ve found meaning in those interactions too! Gosh, I just want to see the disaster royals happy as well, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a sucker for hurt/comfort too, LOL. And I think for me, I really wanted to show that it’s not just a one-way street in terms of caring—that Lotor cares for Allura as much as she does him. (Which gives me more opportunity for more hurt/comfort bwahahaha.) Thank you so much for reading and reviewing this!!
Bieslook: Oh wow, thanks so much for returning to the Voltron fic archives and taking a chance on this story! Yeah, I was disappointed too at how the show turned out and wanted to explore more about this incredibly complex character and all of his potential interactions with a found family. And this story was originally supposed to just be a “what if” thing, lol, but now it’s stretching out into a full s7-s8 rewrite, haha. I really appreciated your note and kind words. Thank you for your review, and for checking out several of my other stories as well!!
Justice_not_Revenge: Thank you so much for reading and reviewing this story; I really appreciate it!

POSITIVE 20 QUESTIONS TAG GAME
ily @hopeisthewholepoint i was doing this a while ago and then the draft didn’t save so this is about 30 years late by now whopps. ily thanks for tagging me tho. ❤
1. Name 4 fictional characters who showcase your personality the best, with explanations if you want.
My girl Edrisa Tanaka from Prodigal Son bc we’re both socially awkward but at least she’s unapologetic about it. I want to say I have Sam Wilson’s humor and I too do what everyone else does just slower. Raymond Holt because I love fluffy bois and I’m down to fight anyone who says anything bad about my pets. Ben Wyatt because we’re both human disasters and I like making dumb stuff when I’m bored.  
2. Aesthetic
Playing pool terribly with friends, peanut butter and banana sandwiches, colorful rain jackets. Balloons, music playing from car radios, collecting movie ticket stubs. Painted nails, open windows, and fish stamps on postcards. The smell of fresh basil.
3. Favorite musical/play? (If you’ve never seen a musical or play, one you’d be interested in seeing?)
Come from Away. Hands down. Though I will say I saw recordings of the National Theater’s Frankensteins recently and both are very good but the Miller-as-the-creature version is especially good.
4. What is the best compliment you’ve ever received?
Okay this is a bit of an unfair question bc I die at any and all compliments. But one that I thought of today /a couple days ago/ a long time ago when i started writing this that made me happy again was when someone I'm in a club with let me borrow his camera to take pictures during a performance. I hadn't taken pictures in a while and I had so much fun and I don't really contribute to the club so I finally felt like I had purpose. It was hard to see how they came out on the camera but the next time I saw him he said they came out really well and someone else said that he's normally picky when it comes to photos but he liked mine so that made me feel even better and it was overall a very nice time. It wasn't even really the compliment (I mean, it still was but) it was also just the gesture to offer a camera when he heard I liked taking pictures. I didn't have my camera with me until after this and it really made me remember how much I liked it. Anyways he graduated and hasn't been in the club since last semester so I never see him but it made me v happy.
5. How many times have you been in love?
Miss me with that romantic love but I fall in love with friends and people and every little thing everyday.
6. Embarrassing story or fact about yourself that makes you laugh now?
Bold of you to assume I've recovered from anything embarrassing ever.
This is a bit of a cheat bc it was always funny but my middle school PE uniforms had words and definitions on the back of the shirts (no i don’t know why) and mine said “final: adj. last in place” or something like that and you know what? it was RIGHT.
7. Favorite Disney/Pixar movie?
Probably Up. Idk I don’t really have one.
8. Favorite flower or plant?
Probably triostar plants because they’re cute and pink.
9. What’s your favorite holiday?
Halloween 🎃! I love the idea that kids are going bonkers and getting candy and having a good time. And I love that it gives not-children people a chance to dress up and have fun and take themselves less seriously for a day.
EDIT: NO ONE TOLD ME I MISSED QUESTIONS 10-14. NO ONE LOOK AT THIS .LOOK AWAY. IM FIXING IT. HOW DID I MISS FIVE WHOLE ENTIRE QUESTIONS. SMH.
10. Name three things that made you laugh or smile this past week.
This meme dee just sent me a minute ago. I had a socially-distant dinner with a couple of my friends whomst I love a lot on Saturday and it was very nice to see their beautiful faces in person again and I love them a lot. Time isn’t real I don’t know what happened this week. I set up the Xbox again and I’ve played a little little bit of Assassins Creed (which Im very bad at) and Skyrim (which im only a little bad at) and that’s been fun. Bonus answer of dee, nina, and I have been watching 911: Lone Star together and it’s v v fun.
11. What song would you play to introduce yourself to someone?
Tumblr media
That is way too hard of a question to definitively answer. My music taste varies so wildly and my favorite song is usually the one I've obsessively listened to the last. Using that logic: Bang! by AJR or Wake Me by Bleachers. Or Chris Martin’s cover of Shelter from the Storm by Bob Dylan. Yeah. The last one.
12. Name something that truly makes you feel peaceful even at your most stressed moments.
Being a passenger in a car with music playing though that doesn’t really happen when I’m stressed. I wouldn’t say peaceful because when I’m not good at that when I’m stressed and most of the time when I’m stressed I have too much stress inside of me so I would rather get it out than be peaceful. So I just put earbuds in and listen to music too loudly so I don’t have to hear anything around me and I can just sort of release all pent up energy with the music and calm down.
13. What do you, did you, or would you study at college?
I’m studying film! I’m technically undeclared but I’m hoping to declare soon. :-). Yes I’m going to be unemployed and leech off of dee for the rest of our lives thanks for asking.
14. This is kind of a weird one, but which outfit of yours makes you feel most like yourself?
Um. Definitely sneakers (by default my white ones because I only have one pair) because I like being able to Move. Same reason for my black pants bc they’re not restricting at all and comfy. And then probably my gray sweatshirt which dee will murder me for saying bc it means I have zero (0) colors in my outfit but it comfy. I like having colors but I feel more comfortable in more neutral colors.
15. What is a quote you live by?
Oof oof I don’t know. I think there are a lot of quotes I want to live by and then I forget about them so if I am living by a specific quote, it’s not consciously. I reblog a lot I like to my words tag or text tag, and this one:
 “‘Do you fall in love often?’ Yes often. With a view, with a book, with a dog, a cat, with numbers, with friends, with complete strangers, with nothing at all.” (Jeanette Winterson)
explains me very well. I don’t know that it’s something I live by because it’s just a state of my existence but it me.
16. Name the funniest playlist name you have.
I wish I had funnier playlist names. One of them is living room couch alone for a very specific mood when it's after 10 o'clock and everyone else is asleep and I'm in the living room alone on the couch and I'm not tired and time doesn't feel real. It's a good mood. I also have one called new york times which isn't funny I just like it.
17. Make a reference to an inside joke you have with someone you love with zero context.
“you know why we do this?" *snap with one hand* "because we can’t always get our arms free to do this” *dramatic arching snap with both hands* 
But that one’s not with dee ( @mrrmiracle ) so give me one sec to think of something else too. Ok here we go: 
"that Andrew Garfield movie"
18. What is a message you would give your younger self if given the chance?
Stop overthinking and start doing. You can’t sit at home sad your friends aren’t hanging out with you if you never ask them to hang out. Initiate things. Its not as scary as it seems. Also for the love of all things holy please form good habits now. Form all the good habits I have none and I’m tired.
19. Who is your favorite family member? (If you have no good blood family members, feel free to mention someone in your found family)
um my cats :// im just kidding it’s @mrrmiracle obviously.
20. What’s a secret dream of yours?
Um lol to not be alone. To be employed doing something I enjoy and make enough money to support myself. If I put lol will this sound less sad.
I’m tagging @mrrmiracle, @grayson-dick @valleydean and @daredeviil and if anyone else wants to do it just say i tagged you and i’ll edit it to include you 👀. i just get anxious tagging people bc i don’t want to annoy people and i never know who wants to be tagged or not.

“Top 10″
Tagged by the very lovely @serenililly to do a top 10 KPop song list thingy and let me tell you I did not follow any guideline whatsoever. I take the title with an ocean of salt.
So this "list" is just me messing with myself more than anything. I usually rotate between Day6, BTS, FTIsland, N.Flying and Stray Kids in my phone so this is just giving me an excuse to find other songs that I've stuffed away in my private yt playlist and listen to them again. I've gone down a rabbit hole...
(if you say that you were cheating with choosing songs and having honourable mentions, I'm basically criminal. There's more than a good 50 songs mentioned in this "list". Put me in a jail cell...)
Be forewarned; I talk a lot, so, everything is under the cut.
TL;DR I shoved all the songs that I really like into one post depite being told it is a top 10 song list. (also I've given up tagging anyone in doing this cause idk who to tag *finger guns*)
Eric Nam - Runaway (Honourable mentions: Love Die Young [I know this one's an english song but god is it good])
First off, let's be real. This song was going to get on this list one way or another. I wrote a FLUFF FIC for JUNGKOOK with this song. It made me write fluff for a guy a I don't even necessarily care to have fluff with. It somehow wrecked me as a person and god does it scare me. It's a romance that I want with my entire heart and I wrote it for someone who isn't my bias in anyway. What can that tell you?
ok but the song is one that I go back to about every week. I can't get sick of it. And if you listen to it with the English version right after it, it becomes such a whiplash. Eric knows how to mess with me.
Day6 - 365247 & Emergency  (Honourable mention: Deep in love, Hi Hello, Dance Dance, Shoot Me)
Look I try to keep it to one song per artist but the Entropy album was a fcking all kill for me. This album would be on number 1 if this was on a top ten album list instead. (If bts hadn't stolen my heart already at the time, Day6 would have been my ult of all time because these boys are hilarious.)
365247 is such a funky tune and I find myself seeking out this song everytime I'm feeling a little spunky. Feels like one of those sexual tension songs to me for some reason but I love it.
Emergency is a bit of a mess but like in the best way. Just the sounds of blaring sirens and heart monitors just, my god. The way the lyrics were paced to fill the theme in even more was so good. What can I say? Like, it was a really well done song. And I am head over heels for it. (also the fact there is a dance for this song is amusing)
FTIsland - Pray (Honourable mentions: Stay, Hello Hello, Falling Star, Memory, Take Me Now, Paper Plane)
*stares down the Japanese releases* Oh god I love those. It was hard to separate them from the Korean releases because the Japan releases were the ones that got me to FT and eventually, K-Pop in general. But then I also remember that there are songs that have a Korean version. As much as I am more familiar with the Japanese versions, the Korean versions are great too.
The reason why I chose Pray as the top song is I guess just the state that I was when it came out. Like, I felt it through my bones and it kind of never left. So whenever I listen to Pray, I have the visceral feeling that I need to scream at a god. I don't but it just relieves it by the end of the song. (also Rock that I can scream to when I actually want to)
Jonghyun - Before our Spring (Honourable mentions: Take the Dive)
Simply known as the song that broke me and put me back together. It's now the song that reminds me that there's more to live for. I don't think I can listen to this song without at least tearing up a little. I'm sorry Winter Angel and thank you.
N.Flying - The Real (Honourable mentions: Hot Potato, Rooftop, 4242)
THE REVIVAL of my darling boys. God how much I had missed them and the return being one of the stupidest mvs I know (not counting anything from norazo or Psy), it was so perfect. And then the follow up being Hot Potato, just N.Flying had such a great revival that really suited them as a group. I always go back to it whenever I need a smile.
Epik High - Born Hater (Honourable mentions: Lullaby for a Cat, People Scare Me)
This one is the only one with no real reason why I picked it. I just really like it and it had a lot of people contibuting to the song.
The Rose - Baby (Honourable metions: She's in the rain, Red)
Back to my band shennanigans (if you haven't noticed the list being almost half bands). The Rose holds a good place in my heart too. With a voice like Sammy boy's, it's had for me to not have them in the back of my head as I listen to songs on desktop.
AKMU - Time and Fallen Leaves (Honourable mentions: Melted, How People Move, Chocolady, Re-Bye)
I listened to this song A LOT when it came out in 2014. Back when I was still in secondary school going through my depressive teen phase (i'm joking, but am I tho). But really this song was what kept me going and not just find a easy route out. It kinda gave me sense of hope. Cause where else do you fall back when all your friends actually really hated you?
BTS (Well duh) - 소우주 (Mikrokosmos) (Honourable mentions: SPRING MF DAY, Magic Shop, Mono, Anything Jimin has put out solo-wise, Dionysus, DDaeng ect.)
(link goes to the live version of the mma performace in the bangtan bomb)
Every song since the WINGS era has gotten so strong and well done. And it keeps getting better It's been just so hard to figure out which song is the one I'd pick to listen to always.
I was just about to put Spring day as the top but I remembered Mikrokosmos. Idk what it is about Mikrokosmos but it's found a permanent place in my heart for songs that comfort me the most. It inches Spring day in the top spot of fave. I used to have a playlist with all my comfort songs in one but I accidentally deleted it and im too lazy to recompile it tho.
-
Honourable mentions (Songs out of my heavy rotation)
Orange caramel - Catallena Lim Kim - Rain, Goodbye 20, Awoo Heize - Jenga (ft. Gaeko), Don't Know You Bol4 - Bom, Galaxy IU - BEEP BEEP, Palette Zico, IU - Soulmate Block B - Yesterday,  Toy Bastarz - Zero For Conduct, Make it Rain Vixx - Into the Void, The Closer, Shangri-La, Black Out TXT - Poppin Star, Run Away 10cm - Pet,  Phonecert Stray Kids - Awkward Silence
And ok I'll stop. I have to stop.

MUN QUESTIONS.
Q1 : If you could write your character your way in their own movie,  what would it be called,  what style would it be filmed in, and what would it be about?          
A1 : I’m no good with movies. I’d stick him in an Ace Attorney game so he can be even more of an illegal menace than Edgeworth with the autopsy report (because Kassem made the report.)
Q2 : What would their soundtrack/score sound like?          
A2 : Boy do I have the album for you. (It would be the Suitei Yuuzai OST.)
Q3 : Why did you start writing this character?          
A3 : I was bored in a course I was taking to get a law assistant certification. I was joking with friends about this text post and making a character who could be that law professor.
Q4 : What first attracted you to this character?          
A4 : I feel like it’s obvious how much more comfortable I am with Kassem compared to Rothe. He’s a bunch of tropes I like.
Q5 : Describe the biggest thing you dislike about your muse.
A5 : It’s frustrating having to define all things to black/white. I can’t duck out and go halfway with him; I have to make a solid decision and he has to carry it out.
Q6 : What do you have in common with your muse?          
A6 : Our MBTI’s are one off so take that as you will. (INTJ vs INFJ.) We’re both a little too averse to sleeping than we should be. I’m a boring ex-law student turned accountant. Though I wish I could calculate numbers as well as he can...
Q7 : How does your muse feel about you?          
A7 : LMAO. We’d get along, especially if we were working together. 
Q8 : What characters does your muse have interesting interactions with?        
A8 : I really love his involvement with @theseventhdawn​‘s mafia, Vigil. It was a setting I never really considered putting him in, so it’s fun to think of him interacting with a group that doesn’t exactly abide by his personal creed or expectations.
Q9 : What gives you inspiration to write your muse?        
A9 : ...I just really enjoy picking on him.
Q10 : How long did this take you to complete?          
A10 : I honestly have no clue because I was doing about 4 other tasks while I filled this out (over several days,)

⏳How they confessed to you⏳
(i hope you enjoy💜)
💜Snatcher:
This sooh-deh-ray noodle will train for hours just to say three words. Hat Kid is always there to help him,not because there are i don't know 'Contracually obligated friends'. He told you to meet at his tree house and oooh boy he never felt so nervous ever since.... The incident.
He floats around,thinking until he heard your sweet sound of your voice."Hi Snatcher! Im here!" He turned around to see you of course, only to ask you something "So,why did you called me for?" You asked "Uhm *cough* listen kiddo,i have meaning to ask you something." "Another contract?" "No,something else." Shockingly,he would never deny a contract so what is it?
"Ever since you came into my forest,i though you were just another fool, but when i saw you how you cared for everybody, even me, i've realized something else." he came a little closer to your height (you smol bean❤) "You probably heard from kid (Hat Kid) about my past." He paused,seeing combination between sadness in his eyes and anger, then continued "I though i could never find somebody after that, until i met you." He took your hands in his, shooked from what did he said until- " I may be a soul stealer ,but i could never take yours, because you already took my heart." You blushed from his sweet words that are unbelievable to hear. You hugged him and said "Of course i will be yours, you fool!" He chuckled from that pun, because he was your fool.
📣Conductor:
Your Scootish bird thing will be strict when preparing dinner in his train. Express Owls will be 'expressing' everything they have to stop being yelled while living in small apartments (get this reference and you get a cookie🍪)(also i will try to make him sound Scottish) "Hurry up ye Peck Necks! Lassie is gunna come any minute and ye still ain't dun yet?!" " But didn't you call her 10 minutes ago?" One of the Express Owls said. Well, he DID call her not to rush."Uh, but it ain't ye exuse to prepare NOW!".
~1 hour later~
You come to Dead Bird Studios only to be greeted by receptionist, but you only came because Conductor needed you for something, but when going for the door, there was a paper that said 'sorry lassie,I mean't go to me Owl Express. Again sorry lassie. -Conductor'. Great, more walking.
~A half hour later~ (in spongebob version)
After half an hour you saw Owl Express,entered in to see a.... Table with roses? With a pink spotlight? At the table you see...a nice dressed Conductor? What is this,romantic movie? Lady and the Tramp? Except birds? This is getting crazier. "Let's have a talk heart-to-heart. Have a seat, lassie." (Get this reference and you have to comment down below) You sit on chair,little cringed about it like 'Dude isn't this chezzy' kind of cringe "I know this will(?) sound ridiculous but... I love ye (Y/N)." You didn't expect that,did ya?" When ye came into studio,i fell in love with ye,but that DJ Peck Neck would always flirt with ye, that made me angry." Well DJ Grooves did say too much compliments
"But it's ye choice lassie." You took his hands and said "Well...i already choosed" You can actually see that fang(?) smile rising on his face. While you two enjoy the silent conffesion, you hear one Express Owl cughing until he said "Umm sorry to interrupt but......who controls the train if you re here?"
Oh no. Here come the P-word-angry-bird-!"YOU PECK-NECK, WHY DIDN'T YE SAID IT SOONER! I'TS ME BABY!"
📽Dj Grooves:
No.
Please.
He LIVES FOR IT DARLING!
Romantic dinner? Please,this high-heel wearing penguin will make everthing PERFECT to make sure you're feeling welcomed like A STAR!
You were waiting for DJ Grooves to finish his movie until you see some Moon Penguins bringing....candles? Weird. They saw you and quickly run in studio. Well ain't you a PECK NE-!
Ahem let's continue.
You chased them down to see Grooves with MOON PENGUINS THAT YOU CHASED! You hid very quickly,not wanting DJ Grooves to see you"So,darling didn't find you,did she?" "No,boss she didn't we swear." Replied Moon Penguins. "Oh great! My star shouldn't see this unprepared dinner! She can't know that i prepare this ALL for her!" Wait a minute.....?..........Candles....?......Then this........?........is he making diner because he likes me? Okay,i think you had enough.
"That's it! I can't take this! Grooves why do you acting strange these days?" Him and Moon Penguins are shocked to see you,full of rage that you could even call it 'Starlet's rage' "D-darling! I can explain this!" "Well you better have a reason because i LIKE YOU NO MATTER WHA-!" You just realized that you said that out loud. Whoops "Wait? Really darling? You like me?" "Yes Grooves. And i also know you like me too." "But how? I told Moon Penguins to lock up the studio-!" "There's a vent."
Both of you were silent. Welp that was akward. Let's just say you both were happy that you accepted each other.
A normal girl and disco penguin. How akward can it be?
👔Mafia Boss:
MAFIA WILL NOT BE A WEAKLING TO ASK A GIRL!
Mafia Boss will pretty much ATLEAST ask some of his Mafia Goons for advice cuz he doesn't know about ANYTHING.
You are just sitting at first seats close to stage,where apparently were only Mafia Goons here(*Akwardness arises*).
Then curtains opened only to see Boss of all Mafia "Greetings my Mafia! It is i! The most powerful man you ever witnessed!" He proudly says while Mafia Goons giving the applause to their boss.
You were just wondering where the PECK are you even invited? What did he need you for? And how does he know location of your home?!
"I have a annoucement to make for i have a conffesion!" Weird,will he realize that Cooking Cat makes their food insead of them?
"There's a certain someone who makes me weak! and i don't know why! And i want anwsers!" He pointed his pizza cutter(?) at you.
Yes you.He pointed at you. Like,dude really? What did i do? Isn't Mustache Girl the one who makes you feel weak?
"Ever since you landed on Mafia Town, i felt like a weakling! What magic are you using!?" (get the first quote?) Then the Mafia Goons throw you to the stage,right i front of Mafia Boss "WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME,GIRL?!" "Uhh... I...." He was waiting for you to answer.
Hold on-HOLD ON A MINUTE!YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING! HE'S THE ONE WHO LITTERALY ORDER HIS GOONS KIDNAP YOU WHILE WATCHING SNATCHER WITH HIDDEN CAMERA! "Wait? What? Whoa,Whoa W H O A. I didn't do anything." "Than why do i have this feeling when i'm around you!?" *Cricket noises*.............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................Wait................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. "You like me?"The realization hit the chef(?) too ,making him at the same time shocked and sweating so much that he quickly whispered to two Mafias behind him "What do i do?" Two buffed Mafias shrugged "Mafia didn't se our wife for a long time. Mafia can't help you."
(Fun fact: in Mafia Boss's storybook,there's a page that shows some pink,buffed(?) like figures with blond and brown hairs,i can think it's their wives when they look for perfect place now called Mafia Town 😋)
Oh boy,what will he do next. He turned around to see you until he finnaly bursted"I......UH- BE MY SIGNIFICANT OTHER !!!"
(Idk i think it's not in his style to say 'girlfriend' so *yeet out in window)
To be honest,you liked Mafia boss not because of title,it's maybe his....personality? I mean,he's your friend, he'w generous, i mean, that's better then going to spooky manor *wink wink*.
Now you probably thinking 'what happened to (Y/N) and Mafia Boss'?. Weeeeeeeell you two is will try your best to work out your newfound relationship.
Until Mustache Girl comes.
"(Y/N)!!! What you doing here?! there are bad guys EVERYWHERE?!"
🌙Moonjumper: You are pulling his heart! Of course he will confess to his soon-to-be love of his un-life!
You waited for night because that's when Moonjumper would come,well at least Snatcher doesn't bother you
(or maybe he just smug dances along wit Hat Kid and Bow Kid)
"I have arrived!" You hear your friend's gentle voice in the sky.
Now on the ground ,still floating, asked you a odd question that didn't ever tell "Are you in love with someone?" Wait. Wot? "Uh,what do you mean Moon?" He happyily hums "Because i am!" "Oh,really heh. Wait is it-" "No my dear, it isn't her!" "Then who is-WOAH!"
He just snatched (hehe) you in his arms, suprising you"it was you the whole time!" Moonjumper kisses your face then to your lips,seeing him so much happy. Not just his 'I am Moonjumper' happy,but his 'I am Moonjumper AND IM IN LOVE' happy.
You hugged him ,laughing about his 'confession'. I guess even corpses can have somebody to love,right?
❄Vanessa:
She's little shy about it.
You went to visit her in her manor like usual until you saw her running towards you "(Y/N)! You're here!" She hugged you very tightly "I missed you so much!" "I missed you too Vanny. C-can you let me go now?" She let you go while you take some breath "So ,*huff* what did you *huff* call me for?"
You noticed she blushed a little until she said: "I-i...." She nervously paused."I uh...uh...I LOVE YOU (Y/N)! ANDPLEASEDON'TLEAVEMEIDON'TWANNABEALONEIMSORRYPLEASEDON'TBEMA-!" "Whoa hold on Vanessa."You paused her. You let a small chuckle "Vanessa,of course i love you. Why would you think i will leave you-" you se her crying, her red eyes full of saddness and sorrow."B-b-because *sniff* m-my m-m-om w-ould always say that dd-ad l-left her bec-c-cause i w-was born*sniff* that h-he d-d-idn't want me" You hugged her,but she continue to cry."A-and t-that i-i will never find my prince because i was born."
Man,her mom was really uncaring. Seriously,who tells their children the reason why their father of mother left them becsuse they were born? Well,her mother of course.
"Your mom isn't right. She can't blame you just because you were born, that's wrong! I will love to fullest and never let anybody hurt you like that" (the cheeziness) she sniffed, looked at you "You would do that? For me?"you hold her gloved hands and smiled "Anything to make you happy."
She hugged you again,knowing you won't leave her and will accept the way she is.

self-indulgent pre ‘before everything goes to shit’ headcanons for @kyecupio ! fyi for anyone else reading this: serenity / usagi / cosmos are all the same person in this verse but she refers to herself as ‘usagi’ while she’s living on destiny islands!.
under a cut because this got way longer than i meant it to be!!!!
pre-birth / baby / toddler stuff
her feelings on being pregnant range from, ‘i love this mamo-chan! i love you! i love this baby!’ to ‘i can’t see my feet. why does my back hurt so much!! get this baby out of me FUCK!!!!!!!’
a real conversation that was had between her and mamoru: usagi: *casually refers to the baby as a she* mamoru: wait how do you know it’s a girl? usagi: oh well every serenity had a girl befor- mamoru: um what do you mean by ‘every serenity’? usagi: lol i didn’t i tell you my mother was named that? my grandma and great grandma were too. i also look like my great great grandma and my great great grea- mamoru: *chuckling nervously* what the fuck!!!!!
she 'talks’ to the baby a lot by telling him stories, singing to him, or even occasionally admitting that she’s terrified of not being a good parent oof! she likes to think that him moving / kicking right after she says something is him reacting to what was said. but he’s really just a little shit that kicks / moves a lot especially when she’s trying to sleep!!
she definitely gets cravings for delicacies that only existed on the moon kingdom and mamoru tries his best to recreate it but usagi’s terrible and vague about the ingredients ( b/c chefs and makoto cooked everything ) so it never comes out right but she appreciates his attempts none the less.
idk when his birthday is ( i’ll let kyecupio handle that ) but he definitely comes late / past his due date which drives her insane because she just can’t sit still despite everyone telling her to and it gives mamoru daily heart attacks. 
she probably goes into full-on labor at night / during a new moon because hahaahah GET IT NEW. MOON. cause it’s a new moon kingdom heir........ i’m deleting. anyway, a lot of symbolism regarding the new moon is specifically tied to starting over, second chances, new beginnings, etc. which is literally what this baby represents for his parents. this is also a moment where the ‘usagi’ facade drops and ‘serenity’ comes out as she gathers strength from the moon to help her get through the pains of labor ( it wouldn’t be surprising if she kind of just...zones out and enters an almost trance-like state and doesn’t snap out of it until he’s actually out ).
do to the close ties the moon kingdom has with kingdom hearts itself as well as the greek references in kh ( χ-blade ) and in sailor moon, usagi thought of the name archísei but the meaning / significance in its meaning was something both she and mamoru desired in a name for their child.
archísei is the cutest baby!!! he has the chubbiest cheeks, the biggest ears, and is very fussy when he’s not being cuddled by mommy or daddy. and yes, he’s born with the traditional mark of moon royalty: the crescent moon on one’s forehead. it’s hidden away but when they’re alone usagi chooses to reveal it by kissing him on his forehead uwu.
because usagi can’t help her home sickness, his nursery definitely has a slight celestial / moon kingdomish feel to it with white, gold, and other neutral colors + a wall with some constellations or stars on it ( and yes, i looked at baby nurseries for this. let me live!!!!!! ).
this is totally them when he starts screaming at like three in the morning. mamoru can get him to fall back asleep pretty quickly if he’s lucky. with usagi, there’s more work because archísei is spoiled and likes to be sang to before eventually falling asleep, usually to one of these ( both of these, especially tuxedo mirage, are like....aggressively about mamoru but we’re going to ignore that because i like the ‘lullabyness’ of how they sound ).
usagi is tall, around 5′9 / 5′10 ( without heels ), so when he’s not attached to her hip / being carried then archísei is always latched to her legs once he starts learning how to walk.
his terrible twos phase is the absolute WORST. usagi regrets the day he learned how to say no.
childhood stuff
mamoru and usagi are definitely the ‘we’ll fuck you up if you even look at our son the wrong way’ type of parents. even if he were to do something he wasn’t supposed to at school or even goes to far while ‘playfully’ sparring with another kid, they would probably argue in his defense but then lecture him once they’re at home.
( an unpopular opinion but i unapologetically love how snarky / somewhat of a jerk mamoru is in the first season of the 90s anime which is trait that...pretty much disappears after that rip :’(((( - and it’s easily my favorite version of the character. his banter with usagi kills me. ) so going with mamoru’s personality being a mix of manga + season one of classic sm then archísei’s snark definitely comes from him + watching his parents playfully go back and forth with other as usagi can be pretty sassy too ( mamoru taught archísei how to rile her up by calling her bun-head which still makes her throw a fit despite being 30+ years old ).
archísei is a momma’s boy but he definitely admires / looks up to his dad because mamoru is definitely important™ on DI, like a doctor or something because he’s got the smarts. archísei is easily smarter than most, if not all, the kids in his age range ( and probably even the kids older than him too ) so he breezes by in his course work and doesn’t find school interesting. as a result, he would definitely beg his dad to let him skip school and go to work with him and because mamoru is weak, he says yes every single time.
did i say he’s a momma’s boy? he’s definitely a momma’s boy. when he’s a child ( and still too young to stop and question her things ) they did almost everything together. from baking ( and failing at it ), to her teaching him how to do his eyeliner ( this one is completely kyecupio’s ), and he would probably learn to dance from her too. overall they’re just very ‘in-sync’ with each other due to the natural link between them ( similar to her and chib’s connection in canon ). she’s probably the person he loves and idolizes the most which is why it’s going to hurt so much once he learns out that she’s been the one lying and deliberately holding him back all this time.
he doesn’t need help with his homework but usagi and mamoru will sometimes sit down with him anyway - although in usagi’s case, he probably ends up teaching her than the other way around.
a lot of the bed time stories he was told where legends passed down in the moon kingdom or vague stories about other worlds she had been told to as a child.
luna is their cat ( although i’m still debating if it’s moon kingdom luna or just a cat with the same name ). regardless, she’s very protective of him and snuggles with him at night.
pre-teen / things go to shit stuff this section wasn’t supposed to exist but here we are
him entering his pre-teens is when his relationship with his parents, specifically his mother, slowly deteriorates. usagi and mamoru have very different approaches on how to handle their son and his desires to see more outside of DI: usagi wants him to play with other kids / make friends while mamoru feels that if he should be allowed to do things at his own pace because mamoru relates / understands him in ways that she can’t. he was ‘different’ by being the boy who lost his parents / memories and he grew tired of everyone taking pity on him so he just learned to deal with being alone in his own way until he was able to grow and move passed it.
they would definitely have family nights where they would sail to one of the smaller islands to have a small bbq, watch the stars, have fun, etc. these decrease as archísei grows older; he makes up excuses not to attend before eventually not even bothering with doing that.
also that natural link he and his mother have? it’s gone now or more accurately it’s like he’s unknowingly created a barrier around himself that effectively shuts her out. so while she could naturally always faintly ‘feel’ him ( whether it was emotionally or just knowing if he was nearby ),  that’s just not there anymore. it hurts her a lot.
he definitely eventually hears them arguing one night over usagi’s ‘past’ and whether they should tell them to truth. usagi is very ‘nope, not doing that’ despite mamoru trying to convince her otherwise. also if luna is moon kingdom luna then that means the cat that’s been watching over him since he was baby, claiming a dedicated sleeping spot on his bed, and has casually walked with him to school can talk and would probably be on mamoru’s side. archísei vc: you guys have even been lying about the fucking cat too????
when he does finally leave, there’s a....denial about it as they try to convince themselves that maybe he’s just staying late at a friend’s house even though they know he doesn’t have any or maybe he’s camping out on that island he always likes to visit. ‘ we’ll lecture / yell at him about breaking curfew in the morning ’ is what they say but then he’s still not back home in the morning. they check his school and learn he hasn’t been there in over a week so then they start knocking on neighbor’s doors, asking if they’ve seen their son and get no answers. they even check the surrounding islands but he’s still nowhere to be found which is when reality sets in hard. they don’t know if he’s lost at sea, dead, or if usagi’s greatest fear has been realized and he’s somehow managed to leave this world entirely. they just don’t know.
and like not to be cliche but......she loves her son so much and that love can never be replicated or replaced by another so him leaving literally breaks her heart in a way that can’t be fixed ( twil.ight, outside of its soundtracks and leah / rosalie, is not good™ but the song in this scene always...made it weirdly memorable to me and i feel like it’s lyrics accurately sums up how she feels internally - i don’t really see her completely shutting out everyone / just sitting around the house as usagi’s been wearing a mask for a long time and can externally hold it together but would she have sobbing fits at the beach in the middle of the night? yes. ).
also mamoru’s pain over losing his son is important / shouldn’t be brushed over because he literally can’t remember his own parents and has been alone until this strange woman falls, quite literally, into his life. she becomes his new family before giving him a son who he loved so much that he risked sailing the ocean and eventually drowning for because he was so desperate to reach him, to tell him he was sorry for the lies, and that everything would be okay. good god what a DAD.
bonus ‘what if things didn’t suck from the start’ b/c i gotta get this all out my system!
usagi meeting mamoru under less dire circumstances aka she’s free to able to travel to other worlds and casually takes him back to ‘her place’ which just so happens to be a secret kingdom. usagi: haha isn’t it rad!!! mamoru: *chuckling nervously* what the fuck!!!!!
archísei is still ‘different’ but more in that he symbolizes how ‘traveling outside of their home can be good for the MK’s people’ instead of something to be frowned upon.
catch him always in nana serenity’s arms, holding her hand, and them having little picnics together. she also gets him out of trouble from his parents all the time!!!
his aunts / the senshi spoil him so much!!!!! ami ( the nerd ) and setsuna ( the time lord ) are his favorites for obvious reasons but he has unique relationships with all of them - minako and rei probably baby him just as quickly as they would discipline him if they needed to. makoto constantly bakes sweet stuff for him and makes him lunches packed with his favorite food. michiru and haraku are the vodka cool aunts who teach him all about fashion and how to not just look better than everyone else but how to actually be better than everyone else too. he would also probably get along really well with hotaru?? she’s kind of the ‘other’ in the group / not really supposed to exist in a way so maybe they can relate to being different and celebrating that.
he still leaves for scala ad caelum to train but usagi is very dramatic and there’s lots of tears and crying. archísei: mama i’m not even going to be gone that long!!! usagi: b-but!!! *starts sobbing again* 
archísei brings eraqus home and mamoru / usagi are just being hella nosy the whole time. mamoru and usagi in union: who dat??? 👀👀👀
there are lots of crying from mom and dad during his coronation / when he eventually succeeds usagi as the moon kingdom’s monarch!!!! 
BASICALLY EVERYONE IS A LOT MORE WELL ADJUSTED AND THIS DOESN’T END IN DISASTER GOODBYE.
