BNHA 407 : AFO is a lying liar who lies
Today is a very sad day because I am about to do something I genuinely dislike: I am about to defend All for One. In order to cope, I shall make fun of him the whole time.
AFO and Yoichi's backstory is finally out, with AFO narrating it, and there are two possibilities: he is either completely lying about it (boring) or he is lying a little about it (very in-character for him) because he is also lying to himself.
Lie number 1: AFO was born evil.
The narrator (AFO, seriously, it's AFO) says things such as "The baby drained the lifeforce of both his mom and his brother.", "It was born an arrogant baby." and such but it really reads at AFO villifying himself to add to his own legend.
Tumblr media
That's what babies do. Children, before they're born, kinda have to take their strength from their mother. That's why pregnant people aren't supposed to do anything taxing.
AFO and Yoichi's mother didn't die because baby AFO drained her like a vampire. She died because she was a homeless woman who had access to nothing and had to go in labor alone.
Tumblr media
Same thing here: during twin birth, a twin is often bigger than the other (well, probably not to extent of Yoichi and AFO, but you get my point).
Lie number 2: AFO, as a demon baby, is shown killing for no reason, just because he can.
Tumblr media
(First slaughter by Baby AFO shown in that chapter.)
There are two things that are strange in this scene (apart from... you know.... a baby murdering people...)
AFO had no reason to go after them because they don't have any quirks to steal.
It makes no sense for someone to attack a group of people with nothing to gain. I doubt that's the kind of behavior you have when you're in survival mode as you're barely surviving in the street.
However, a previous panel points at some context we might be missing.
Tumblr media
The same panel that indicates that those guys don't have a quirk to steal also shows that they are wiling to do some "preventive attack" on a bunch of quirked people who might or might not be those who assaulted a protest group (reminder that in this context, that protest group are protesting the rights for quirked people to exist).
I could be wrong but odds are that they did something to be qualified as a threat to All for One and we are missing the additional context.
Tumblr media
(Second slaughter by Baby AFO shown in that chapter.)
Now, the poor souls who just got absolutely wrecked by a toddler wearing what I suspect to be a garbage bag have quirks, which makes more sense than the previous scene.
However (and thank you for @aimportantdragoncollector for pointing that out to me), we also have this panel.)
Tumblr media
Yoichi is shown with bruises on his face and might be broken teeth.
Probably because those same people AFO is shown killing attacked him.
Lie number 3: AFO never loved Yoichi because he can't love, he just considered that he was his. That's all. Nothing more.
Tumblr media
(Just... Just ignore the rats.)
AFO didn't care about Yoichi so much that the very conscious first act of his life might have been to swim a river upstream while dragging his brother above the surface with what must have been the deathgrip of all deathgrip.
Tumblr media
AFO didn't care about his brother so much that Yoichi was fed and clothed by an AFO who was malnourished enough for his ribs to show and who wore what's basically an improvised toga.
But he just keeps sacrificing what little he has for someone he doesn't care about one bit, that's just his first possession. Nothing more.
Tumblr media
Okay, I am going to be clear: anyone who sees that panel and thinks that it's the proof AFO didn't like his brother... You just outed yourself as an only child.
Siblings punt each other for no reason. (There is a reason why the first recorded murderer was an older sibling.) In this case, the reason was Yoichi throwing a can at him.
Tumblr media
AFO: "You're not inviting me to a fun activity? You're leaving me out, in the cold, unable to partake in brother bonding activity? Oh, vault for Little Brother! Vault for Little Brother for one thousand years!"
Tumblr media
AFO: "Nevermind, we're reading together. All is well, I guess."
Lie number 3: AFO killed the glowing baby for power, because he could, or because the Glowing Baby didn't deserve it
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Still laughing about AFO's flawless reasoning... "Comic books heroes' life suck. Better to be a villain. I already did the whole struggle thing, I want an easy life."
AFO killed the glowing baby because he was jealous. It's as simple as that. The glowing baby was considered the first official quirked individual (even though it's not true), was protected by his family (if I remember correctly, the mother of quirks was his mom) while AFO and Yoichi had no one but each other (EDIT: I was wrong, the Mother of Quirks was Destro's mother. thanks to the people in the tags), and had a ton of people following him (while, for some strange reason, people start running away screaming when AFO shows his quirk... What a mystery...).
The last panel was basically AFO saying "I want to be loved' but not having the frame of reference to even know what love is.
In conclusion...
While AFO is definitely a bad guy and a monster, he didn't begin his existence as one. He just wants people to believe that. Because his pride and his ego can't allow him to admit that he lived a childhood full of horrible trauma where he was a victim abandoned by society (to an even greater extent than the LOV) or he would probably combust out of rage and mortification.
Ergo facto, AFO is a lying liar who lies, especially to himself.

—it's a love story
↳ chongyun, fanan/bonanus, lyney, wriothesley, and la signora × reader (separately) (royalty au!)
↳ genre: fluff, hijinks, a bit of crack(chongyun), hurt/comfort(wriothesley and maybe lyney's too), fantasy elements(signora) | wordcount: 1.8k | warnings: reader being a bit presumptuous and assuming(fanan)
↳ notes: while writing i did realize that some of these scenarios could happen even without the medieval setting, but i think everyone needs to imagine their favorite characters in a royalty au. at least once. for the aesthetic
Tumblr media
—chongyun
if anyone's ever watched gravity falls, think of that episode where dipper explores the northwest mansion with pacifica. it goes something like that
your family, as well as even the servants around the castle, grew wary of things that went bump in the night over the last few years
eventually, they called in an exorcist to get rid of anything with malicious intent
his name was chongyun— the best of the best in liyue
it was said even the most gruesome of evils steered clear of his presence. and when you first met, you thought it was no wonder
with his icy stare and his imposing ceremonial greatsword, he looked almost surreal as the ghosts themselves
you were tasked with representing your family. you and the exorcist were about the same age, so your parents thought it would help make him more comfortable
once you got to talk to him personally though, that assumption immediately fell flat on its face
as you went through the palace, his coldness didn't seem to waver, no matter how much you tried to lighten the mood. his tone when speaking (limited to one word replies and/or lengthy explanations about evil spirits) was clipped and entirely professional
it didn't take you long to resign to the fact that you were probably annoying him, and so you stopped
chongyun, however, was left stuck asking himself why you'd suddenly started acting so stiffly
as you forlornly inspected an ancient vase, he wondered if he should apologize for.. something? was he being too cold? he hoped not
though chongyun did worry that his long time crush on you would have him combust if he ever stood an inch too close
besides, he was on a job. professionalism, chongyun. professionalism
just ignore the unwanted whisper of the xingqiu devil on his shoulder urging him to talk to you
he could do that later
maybe. hopefully
his friend would have definitely been having a field day if he saw him now, fumbling over himself about whether or not to initiate a conversation
you, however, had absolutely no clue what chongyun was glaring at the wall about. the mural maybe? was that cursed? you sidled up to chongyun's side and voiced your question to him
if you knew him any better, you'd recognize the vague pink creeping up his cheeks
—bonanus / fanan
you'd initially thought she was a.. strange choice to be assigned as your personal knight
to be honest, you used to think she was one of the nurses. you often saw her in the infirmary, her deep blue hair and pretty smile catching your eye quite easily
fanan's frame was slender, but with the way she carried herself, anyone might guess she was a member of the royal household like you
you couldn't imagine her in all that clunky armor, swinging a hefty sword against the other warriors. you had thought she was too soft-hearted for that
that was a misjudgement on your part
the first spar you witnessed her partake in was when she was training one of her subordinates
the first thing you were wrong about was her weapon— fanan didn't have a sword, no
she had two
long, elegant twin dao sword with carvings of the waves and ocean legends from the hilt to the iron of the blades. the metal was such a beautiful silver it could pass for blue under a certain light
the second thing you were wrong about?
fanan had no use for armor, apparently
she flowed as easily as water, practically dancing around her opponent in a blur of blue
her blades, the seafoam and her azure apparel, the current; she was a tsunami crashing into the tide
her opponent fell before a minute passed
"you've improved." yet she smiled at them, as sweet as ever
you had to hold yourself back from voicing your bafflement. improved? at this rate, you felt you might as well could have fired every other knight at the palace
"i noticed you stop to watch earlier."
it was only after fully checking in on her subordinate did she ask for your thoughts
"what did you think, your grace? was my performance to your liking?"
you could only blink at her
"y..your grace?"
"i—" you cleared your throat. "um.. yes. yes, it was. more than satisfactory, i think. you are quite skilled, sir bonanus"
then she beamed at your words
your heart fluttered
—lyney
in lyney's words, you were a noble of many treasures, and a bouquet of even brighter blossoms. you sometimes found his riveting manner of speech a bit difficult to understand, but that statement was thankfully not one of them
you thought the notion of having a jester was a bit silly. but you didn't have any other way to describe him either
you supposed magician worked well enough
to start, the court of fontaine was simply enamored with him. who wouldn't be?
a charming fellow from humble origins, rising up with nothing but the little mora in his pocket and the support of his family to keep him afloat. and he'd made it. in no time at all, he was a regular presence on the stage of the opera epiclese.
and while the court of fontaine was enraptured with the magician, lyney himself found himself enraptured by you
he didn't believe in love at first sight, but he knew when he was smitten
you came to every show. every night. he even caught a glimpse of your watching eyes during one of his smaller performances
the immediate night after, the opera's crowd was in complete shambles by the end of his tricks, when a single rainbow rose had been thrown into the crowd by his very hand
it had landed in your lap, just as planned
the look you shared that night was the talk of the entire kingdom for weeks
as for you.. well, he made you laugh. what else was there to say?
soon enough, lyney was giving out backstage passes (pass-es, he told lynette. but she saved him the trouble and requested you to come by herself)
you grew close quickly. lyney seemed like an easy person to get close to, after all. he was a devoted suitor as well; never passing up every opportunity to try and impress you or tell you how grateful he was to you for even looking his way
every performance after that concluded with a rainbow rose in your hand. sometimes even several
your visits to the house of the hearth (previously only for business) increased in number
so when the order came from father to get even closer to you and sleuth about your estate and properties, lyney's heart just about stopped in his chest
—wriothesley
you knew each other for as long as you could remember
he was just a random servant boy in the castle that liked keeping you company. you, in turn, had no complaints. he was fun, if not unpredictable, and a welcome interruption to the rigid palace routine
to him, you were like an angel. he called it the luck of the gods themselves that you wanted to play with him at all when they were kids
with the crown on your head as a halo, the cadence of your voice was your song. you always smelled so nice, and your hands were so soft. your smile, however, was the most stunning. the sight of it almost gave him a sense of pride, knowing that more often than not, it had appeared because of him
you were inseparable, and everyone hated it. especially your parents
it was almost ironic. of all the people to have figured out how the two of you felt about each other first, it had to be the ones that needed you apart the most
he didn't exactly help his own case, what with his smart mouth and knack for getting in trouble. it came as no surprise that he was at the receiving end of someone's scolding quite often. you just hadn't expected it to get so far
the trial went by you in a blur of whispers
"i always knew he was trouble" "what a dreadful child" "how unfortunate"
you couldn't sit still, practically leaning over the rail to look at him. you wanted to snap at your family gossiping behind you. you wanted to jump over the rail and run to your best friend. your only friend. you wanted to yell at him. you wanted to comfort him. you wanted to grab him by the hand and run off somewhere no one could catch you
and he wasn't even looking at you
if only you'd known what he was thinking in those moments. that the mere sight of you at the edge of his vision had him near tears
"i'll come back to you. i'll come back." he repeated to himself every night after that before he fell asleep, dreaming of you
years passed. wriothesley never forgot
now the duke of the fortress he was exiled to, he ran back to the overworld the first chance he had
as soon as he saw you on the streets of the city, he knew
and as soon as you caught sight of him, staring longingly after you across the street, you did too
—la signora
the signora lohefalter was a mysterious woman
the fair lady. an esteemed member of the snezhnayan court. from the way she dressed, the way she carried herself, the way she spoke, it could be said she was the very definition of the word 'luxuriant'.
between the two of you, it had started with a spark
on her end, a spark of interest
you were a bold one. whether you were a lowly servant, a fellow noble, or somewhere in between, you had a certain look in your eye. one of unyielding fire
it drew her in, this mirror of her own disposition
the court was often a rather desolate place to be. the people flew by and drifted off, colder than the wind. your heat was tantalizing to her. and eventually, she learned to crave your warmth
on your end however, the spark was rather literal
witchcraft was forbidden in all but written law. so when you caught the slightest lick of light escaping the signora's ungloved hands, you weren't quite sure what to do
she'd caught your gaze with an amused smile
"you look like you've seen a ghost, y/n."
not quite
it was an odd game of cat and mouse. it was as if the mouse bared fangs, and the cat was left to do nothing but scramble to catch it
it might take a while longer for her to accept her own feelings if you weren't a noble, or draped in finery from head to toe
but when she does, she claims the feelings with conviction. no matter how much longer it will take for the two of you to end your little game, it's clear what's going on to any outsider watching the two of you
maybe it wasn't so much that you wanted her caught. maybe you just wanted to know why. you've voiced this curiosity to her once, in one of your attempts to obtain a confession
she smiled again, in that coy, oh-so-innocent way that she did. she'd tell you, but.. well, you already knew, didn't you? what was there to tell?
and could you really blame her if she enjoyed the way you looked as you chased her down?

Guess who just finished Oracle of seasons :D!!!
Very fun game actually, I didn't except it to be so enjoyable, shame on me lol. The pixels and frustrating bits absolutely did not stop me from having a blast!
But dear goodness the backtracking. Oh my gosh, THE BACKTRACKING.
I didn't get the fast travel option until pretty far in, a lot of enemies were just a pain, and the difficulty spikes came mostly from absolutely incongruent solutions to puzzles and I got lost SO many times.
That being said, it was unexpectedly pleasant to be at such risk, to have to keep engaging my brain in little ways. Modern games (yeah, like botk) have very different ideas of power scaling and difficulty. It comes from a much more honed sense of the audience and the much more open worlds used as standard now, but there was something to be said about such a linear world and story. There were different optional things along the way, yes, but really... It never stopped being a challenge. I was constantly trying to outrun garden variety enemies, wrack my brain to remember locations and how to get there, pacing back and forth staring across a pit of lava that remained stubbornly impassable.
The amount of backtracking gave me an organic feel for the world, dumb decisions had dumb consequences. I never got bored fighting enemies or exploring dungeons. I loved trying out new things that weren't immediately obvious and seeing what would happen. It felt more up to me to figure out the solution than to find out what the game was telling me the solution was, you know?
The plot was pretty much as basic as you can get, save local princess from dark castle with evil boss, but it was hardly a downside when the characters were so wacky and varied.
I loved the boss designs! They ranged from fireball geodude with a face right out of mob psycho 100, to an acidic piranha plant tree in quicksand, to a super speed glowing tiger, to a two headed skeleton dragon that shot lasers. They were all sort of lumpy in the medieval painting way, gave them a retro sort of charm and a sense of danger that the sleeker modern bosses just don't have. Make bosses lumpy again 2k24 XD.
Link was a dear and pulled off some pretty slick moves in cutscenes! The twinrova reveal (spoilers for a game that came out in 2001?) was excellent, genuinely spooked me. Also the feeling of 'hnnnnn these are hyrules problems, my circus my monkeys' was great lol. Like ugh not these bozos again. I was having a break! Saving some other unrelated kingdom! But noooo it's our problems escaping containment after all. UGH. Lmao.
The linked game ability is pretty cool. I wasn't so sure I'd play OoA after, but I just might. Wonder what'll change? The idea of Link chasing the twin witches across kingdom borders is awesome, very proactive of him! Very high stakes undercover mission style!
The ending cutscenes were very adorable as well, very Legend of Zelda (even though she doesn't even appear in this game XD).

my twilight princess journey: enemies to lovers apparently
A few days ago I beat the legend of zelda: twilight princess for the first time ever!! and man...... i am not okay (positive)
I've always been a HUGE zelda fan, ever since I was a little kid. i literally can't remember a time I didn't have zelda in my life. so much i used to spend all day long playing majora's mask with my older sibling and i remember how i knew there were other zelda games but i thought all of them would look like oot/mm... and then twilight princess was announced. and i thought that was the most beautiful game I had ever seen. i fell in love with midna and i thought link was just so handsome and cool... unfortunately i never owned a gamecube and apparently my sibling was not really interested in twilight princess, so... time went by and i never had the chance to play it.
Tumblr media
and then, back in 2012, 10 years late, 14 year old me heard of the wind waker for the first time. i immediately fell in love with the art and i HAD to play that game. i owned a Wii at the time and i remember feeling disappointed realizing WW was for the gamecube but then FEELING EXCITED REALIZING THE WII COULD PLAY GAMECUBE GAMES. i fought really hard to be able to play the wind waker. and i did!!! i played it way too much probably. i always say it's at least my top 2 zelda. sometimes even top 1, only losing to majora's mask.
Tumblr media
and twilight princess remained unnoticed........ until I noticed it... negatively
back in the day people used to hate a lot on the wind waker because of the graphics and art style. and what they would compare it to to say the graphics sucked?? twilight princess. "TP good dark mature awesome!!! WW bad stupid kiddy game!!" UGH i was outraged. i had to stand up for my favorite game!!! before i even noticed, i already hated twilight princess.
Tumblr media
i had some (bad) reasons like being under the impression that TP was trying way too hard to be dark and gritty and realistic and that it took itself so seriously it made it look stupid. and i would compare it to majora's mask's effortlessness in creating a depressing but beautiful atmosphere without having to be visually dark. "TP wants to be MM soooo bad it's embarrassing hihihi!!!" oh shut up you never played it, weirdo!!!!
Tumblr media
anyways, fast forward to may 2023. nintendo releases tears of the kingdom and with it apparently the end of the old zelda format. i was so devastated and sad... ever since botw, i was hoping for a new old-fashioned zelda game; and now it would never come... but still i was longing to play a zelda game. i wanted to GET THROUGH DUNGEONS, SOLVE PUZZLES, DO COOL SIDEQUESTS FOR FUNNY CHARACTERS!!! but i didn't want to play the ones I had already played again... i wanted something new... but what!!!
Tumblr media
i looked at twilight princess, twilight princess looked at me.... i thought "welp... i guess I wouldn't be able to run from you forever". and off i went to hyrule... or rather, to ordon village
at first I was sincerely shocked by how much TP felt like the wind waker. same engine, similar combat (but greatly improved), same sound effects, the yellow rupee... i was jokingly saying it was the wind waker's evil twin lmao
Tumblr media
when i got to the first dungeon, it finally hit me: through all these years, what the FUCK did I think twilight princess was gonna be other than... *SHOCK*... A NORMAL ZELDA GAME?????
A VERY GOOD ZELDA GAME???? T-THE BEST ONE????
remember all that talk about trying way too hard to be dark and gritty?? dude. what the fuck. this game is fucking adorable. midna is SO cool in a sweet way, the songs are great and honestly this is my favorite link ever. i always looked at him being marketed as a MANLY MAN THE MOST AGGRESSIVE REALISTIC LINK GGRRRR LOOK AT HOW DEEP HIS VOICE IS!!!! reality: he is the cutest link. literally the cutest most adorable link. bless him forever. i want to hug him so bad............. i am going to pass out (positive)
Tumblr media
also midna and zelda. they are dating.
Tumblr media
so yeah, there i was having an absolute blast with this game. it has the best dungeons I've ever seen. (except for lakebed temple. i hate lakebed temple. good thing arbiter's grounds is the best dungeon in the entire franchise.)
Tumblr media
anyways I got to temple of time and then my PC fucking gave up and i had to go get it fixed; i lost all my progress and cried myself to sleep but then i pulled myself together and went through it all over again. and i would do it again. because i love this game. i finally beat it 5 days ago and i can't stop thinking about it. might just as well start another run honestly
twilight princess has now surpassed most zelda games I've played and is comfortably sitting under majora's mask and the wind waker as my 3rd favorite zelda game. but there is a twist: i haven't played MM and WW in years and i kinda needed to play them again just to confirm or change my ranking. the problem is that i just don't feel like playing them. 'cause i just want to play twilight princess!!!
so yeah, with a new personal record of 17 years of delay, it still feels kinda weird to say that twilight princess might just be my favorite zelda game ever. 🙏
Tumblr media
that's it bye

Nancy’s Twin (Stranger things Fanfic)
Description: Mickey Wheeler. The youngest twin of Nancy for 20 minutes. Just because they're twins, doesn't mean anything to Mickey. Nancy is pretty and popular. Mickey is decent and the "Do not **** with me" gal plus a total geek like her baby brother Mike who cannot beat her in arcades. Of course she loves her little brother Mike, which is why she's involve in this situation.
Warning: cursing and violence. If anything else let me know.
ENJOY. Let me know if there's errors or punctuation errors.
Author: Here’s Chapter 1 :3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chapter one: The Start of it All
November 6, 1983, Hawkins, Indiana.
Years past since the Jaws movie for Mickey, and not once has she past the opportunity to watch more horror movies. During those years, she would give her Dad a chance to watch horror movies as long as she takes her the times he goes during when he's done from work. Of course he said no that she's too young to watch them, but a little deal was made with a 8 year old girl and her 37 year old Dad.
"Daddy if you let me watch the horror movies you go to with addition of snacks, I won't tell mom you went to see Jaws." Mickey keeping the professional stance with her notebook hugged to her chest.
"How do I know she'll believe you honey?" Ted was just ready to leave the house.
"I can recite the entire movie to her step by step."
"Ok I can take you, but no snacks."
"Did I mention that I know you're the one that took Mom's 20$ that she was gonna use for our candy bags on Christmas to buy yourself a 10 pack of beer?"
That's how the deal started. Every certain days, Ted would use his breaks during his work to pick up Mickey from school and go see movies.
Movies like Deep Red, Race with the Devil, Rocky horror picture show, legend of the werewolf, terror of Frankenstein, Jaws 2, don't hang up, and assault! Jack the Ripper.
Her favorites started listing like crazy.
Carrie, King Kong, The clown Murders, Halloween (she's really into Micheal Myers), Alien, Tourist Trap (It did scare her a little), Dracula, Friday the 13th, The shining, Evil Dead, Poltergeist, and Creep-show.
Of course she still watched other movies like Rocky, Freak Friday, Star Wars, The rescuers, Pete's Dragon, Cinderella, Grease , Lord of the rings, Battle star Galactica, Star Trek, Muppet Movie, Lupin III, Indiana Jones, Annie, The dark crystal and Pop eye.
You can say she found ways to watch movies almost every day. She would save up her money from the amount of toy cars she sells to kids in her school including secretly selling money worth of candies from Halloween to buy herself movie tapes to rewatch.
Until the years gone by and she just stopped the deal with her Dad. Ted didn't know why, but she just acted quiet for almost a whole year. He didn't make it a big deal and decided to just let it be.
Mickey stopped having physical touches with her family after she was 10. No hugs, no shoulder pats, no surprises, no grabbing her face to kiss it. No touching.
On her 11th birthday, Ted gave her a cassette tape player that she can hear music in. Of course Nancy just wanted new dolls and dresses, but all Mickey wanted was the opposite. She would never want to wear a dress again.
Now 8 years of complete hell was coming and going for Mickey. In her room listening to The Poppy Family as she reads a spider man comic while laying on her bed wearing a graffiti t shirt.
"I can't help crying"
Honestly, Mickey can relate to that one sentence.
"You are my whole , babe"
"My heart and soul, babe"
Distracted from the song, she just tosses the comic to the floor and keeps listening to the song instead. Even at the age of 16, she's curious to how people find such a perfect partner. After watching The Goodbye Girl, Mickey never really sees herself falling in love with a man. Of course she got a huge crush on certain guys from movies, but in an actual relationship, hell no.
After everything that's happened in those 8 years, Mickey would never in her life settle with the boys in Hawkins.
A slight open of her door snaps her back to reality. She removes her headphones and lifts her self up to see it's Dustin, one of her brother's friends.
"You need something Dustin?"
"Actually I wanted to ask if you wanted this last slice of pizza? It's sausage and pepperoni." He says with his adorable childlike smile.
Mickey gets off her head and walks to him. Looking down at the pizza, it's pretty good to eat, so she takes it and thanks him.
"For this free pizza, I shall honor you one of the great trades of them all good sir."
Dustin is already excited.
"What would that trade shall be, oh Lady of the Village Halla?"
Mickey goes to a box under her bed, takes something out of it, and gives it to him.
"8 dollars in cash." She said with a smile.
"Holy shit!! You serious?!"
"It's also a thank you for buying me some big league gum and skittles. Spend wisely my freind."
He smiles and starts to leave, while she goes to eat the pizza, which is pretty good for a free slice.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"There's something wrong with your sister."
Mike looks at Dustin with confusion. When it comes to having two sisters, it's a little hard to know which one any person is talking about depending how you describe them. Mickey and Nancy always have something wrong with them, but simple things.
Like when Dustin asked what's wrong with Mickey of why she allows her brother and his friends hug her but not anyone else, or the time when he asked what's wrong with Nancy with why her and Mickey don't get along. 
"What are you taking about?" Mike asked.
"Nancy has a stick up her butt."
Now he knows which sister he's talking about.
Lucas adds, " Yeah. It's because she's been dating that douchebag, Steve Harrington." While preparing to ride his bike back home.
"She's turning into a real jerk Mike." Dustin getting on his bike.
"She's always been a real jerk." Mike clarifies.
Dustin disagrees. "She used to be cool. Remember when she dressed up as an elf for our Elder Tree campaign."
"That was four years ago!!"
"Just sayin!!" Before he could leave, he turns to Mike.
"If there was a chance I can date your sister, can I date her?"
Mike raises his brow with a "wtf" look.
"Which one?"
"Obviously the badass one. Mickey."
"Oh my god no Dustin, I mean she is a badass but I'm not allowing you to date her."
"She likes me!!"
"As a brother, and you're too young for her plus it's a Hell no!!"
"4 years Mike!! 4 years!!"
"You can't blame him Mike." Lucas says with a side smile.
"Bye!!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Nancy don't even lie about stealing my damn lip balm, either give it back or I'm taking one of your pants as my own."
Nancy holds Barbara on the phone again and looks at her with an impatient look on her face.
"Why do even have one? You hate makeup."
Mickey raises her brow.
"For your information, the lip balm keeps my hot blood lips from drying like a mummy while makeup is just an enhancement for certain girls to wear to impress their target."
"Their target?"
"Yeah. Boys, boys with bikes, boys with cool cars, boys with CuTe hair, boys that are nice, and boys who you just feel In LoVe."
Mickey mocking the words "cute" and "love".
"Is this about me dating Steve? He's nice and is really cute, and his hair is cute too. Sounds like someone is just jealous that I have a boyfriend."
Mickey just laughs.
"HAH!! First of all I was just telling you to give me back my lip balm, and second of all, I don't see any reason to be jealous over a guy that probably doesn't even use actual hairspray for his hair."
She looks around for the lip balm until she sees it on a table close to the door. As she grabs it, she looks back to Nancy.
"Does Mom and Dad even know you have a boyfriend?"
Nancy eyes widen a bit, which means to Mickey that it's a no. Why is she not surprised? Nancy tries to counter a comeback.
"Do they even know you have a monster truck without their knowledge?" She smiles.
"I'm making money out of that badass truck, thank you so much for reminding me." As she leaves, she hears Nancy mutter "druggie" before she continues on the phone with her freind. As Mickey closes the door, she mutters "Princess" before she opens her door and closes it to lay back down on her bed.
It is getting late so she'll have to sleep. That means she'll have to wish graduation comes quick. She changes into a simple oversize Christine movie shirt and heads to bed.
"Please just for once let tomorrow be okay." She whispers before closing her eyes. The entire room only lighten by a nightlight of a candle that makes the whole room smell like roses.
Let tomorrow be okay? If only Mickey Wheeler knew.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hope y’all love it!!! I’m copying and pasting these chapters to tumblr since they’re from my WattPad story originally. How do you guys like Mickey? Is she likeable? Just asking!! I'll be sure to post Chapter 2

Three Ships:
Decho - This is the ship between my character Echo and @aprobleminthegarden’s character Des for @messianicfigure’s dungeon world campaign. We took a long break from playing and decided to do a timeskip when we started again. Steph and I talked about doing a slow burn romance between our characters who ostensibly dislike each other, but have each come to harbor secret feelings they’re too stubborn to own up to. And I got to surprise everyone by having Echo come back from the timeskip with a shitty evil boyfriend! And it turns out Des spent the break traveling with Echo’s twin sister and they’ve gotten close in a way that irks Echo. The girls are pining and jealous!!
Neuvifuri - This is the ship between the genshin characters Neuvillette and Furina, and after the most recent archon quest, I’ve been obsessed with them. They’ve been partners for 500 years but now they’re divorced. Furina is keeping her distance because she thinks Neuvillette hates her now, and Neuvillette wants her back hard but is trying to respect her space. If you follow me here and like genshin but haven’t followed my side blog, it’s @neuvifuri :)
Drowley - This is the ship between supernatural characters Dean and Crowley. Just finished season 10 and I can’t believe how much they fucked. What the hell. Crowley is whipped. What the hell. What the fuck. Canon kings!

REAL NULL PROPAGANDA HOURS!!
(submitting this now so i don’t forget when the polls are posted lol)
Tumblr media
you might be thinking. who is this chump? and why should i vote for them?
well.
this weird lizard is NULL and they are the blorbo from my brain!!!
Some random facts abut the beast:
1. Null used to be ½ of a god (kinda). They were created when a mage tore one of the universe’s founding deities in half due to a misunderstanding (long story). Both halves of this god-soul congealed into a physical form, with one half becoming Null (and the other half becoming Null’s evil twin sibling Nil).
2. Null is made out of rock. No, seriously. When Null was first formed, they were more energy than physical matter. They wandered into a cave and just went to TOWN eating rocks and incorporating it into their body. so null is entirely rock and mineral based and is kept alive entirely by freaky otherworldly “magic” (once again, long story).
3. considering Null was formed from the corrupted deity of death and destruction, Null was SUPPOSED to hunt down their counterpart Nil, kill them before Nil manages to kill Null, and be reformed as the true destruction god once again. instead, Null sat in a cave for like, 100 thousand years longer than they were supposed to.
4. Everyone wants Null to be the protagonist soooo bad but Null would much rather go back to their cave and take a nap. They only left the cave because the mountain they lived under Completely Collapsed on top of them.
5. Instead of doing what they were SUPPOSED to do (kill Nil), Null spent their time wandering with their new friends and having a fun adventure learning about the big huge above-ground world while aforementioned friends are DESPERATELY trying to lead Nil and their posse on a wild goose chase and stalling them as long as possible because, unlike Null, Nil IS actively trying to hunt down and murder Null. Null is aware of this, they just don’t care.
6. At various points, Null becomes: a semi-famous sculptor, a baker, a folk legend, a criminal, an archivist, an archaeologist, a geologist, an unlicensed therapist, and a temple statue (….long story.)
7. Cares WAY more about doing whatever the hell they want instead of following fate or expectations or anything.
8. Specifically USED to be ½ a god and not CURRENTLY ½ a god specifically because of how souls work in the universe. Null (and their counterpart Nil) both start out as literally just. half of the destruction god’s soul. but after going through Character Development Null got their Very Own shiny brand-new soul. so when Nil eventually confronts Null and dies (badly) in the process, the god-part of their souls reform into the destruction god, but Null is still fine! Kind of. They did get turned into a rock for a while. But it’s fine! They got better!
9. Null’s favorite food is limestone. Null’s second favorite food is mango.
10. Null exists in a plane of existence known as the Mortal Coil (which i talk about in depth on my oc lore sideblog @mortalllycoiled if you’re at all interested in the Lore). There are a Lot of guys involved. here’s a simplified relationship chart as a reference for the scale so far!
Tumblr media
11. Null is my special little guy and I am simply happy that you have observed him for a little bit. I designed this creature back in 2017 and I still love them so much its unreal. Here’s some random old art to look at!
Tumblr media
^ the OLDEST art of Null, from 2017! this is one of my oldest digital art pieces ive done. i think we’ve both come a long way c:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
anyways, thank you for observing my specialist guy Null! so go ahead and vote for them (or don’t; i’m writing this post before i know who he’ll be going up against so like. idk follow your heart <3 )

Summary: There once was a boy named John Constantine Novak. That boy no longer exists, as he became twins.
For: @fluffyfebruary challenge!
Prompt: Day 4: Learn
Read on AO3
MEMORY WAS A tenuous thing. Unless you were "blessed" with an eidetic memory, which honestly sounded more like a curse, you really couldn't remember everything. Even the memories you did have could be changed, sometimes through magic but more commonly through simple auto-suggestion. If you told someone something over and over, pretty soon they would start to believe it, such as old stories about changeling children becoming more commonly known after the Magical Revelation at the turn of the millennium that had practically eclipsed the whole Y2K thing with the computer programming bug.
Magic was the reason that almost no one remembered that a boy named John Constantine Novak used to exist. Almost no one, that is, except for the four people who were there the night it happened. Charlene Novak neé Shurley had been told those stories of changelings, the ones that described the children who acted odd, who stared too much or couldn't meet your eyes, who counted grains and hummed strange tunes no one else knew. Scientific studies had determined that such behaviors related to the perfectly human condition of autism, a type of neurodivergence that was slowly becoming more understood. When the Revelation happened, when it became obvious that not only were magical beings like faeries real but that they lived among humanity? Many of those old stories got brought up again, including in the mind of Charlene who was already starting to notice certain oddities about her only son.
Magic was an old story to Charlene as a child, being of Irish Catholic stock and having grown up hearing the old legends of the Fair Folk, but magical reality was new and terrifying. She feared confronting an actual faerie to demand her real son back, feared her own inability to navigate the treachery such a creature could weave around her if they could steal her son without her notice and leave this strange, inhuman child in her little boy's place. Prayer was easier, and surely if faeries and vampires and werewolves and other demonic creatures were real, then angels must also be real and capable of answering the prayer of a faithful Catholic woman who only wanted to save her child?
In the dead of night, in the nearly empty church after evening mass had long since concluded, her prayer was answered... but not in the way she had expected. The angel who came to her, golden and shining with wings spread wide to cast their shadows on the walls of the church, looked upon her tearful, pleading face as she begged for him to "destroy the evil changeling creature and give me back my real, normal son" with no warmth. When he spoke, his voice echoed with the rumble of thunder and the flare of a thousand horns.
"You ask this of me out of ignorance and fear," he intoned. "You will now be tested. Behold."
Light formed and swirled upon the altar before there appeared a child in the likeness of her son (or his changeling doppelganger) dressed in his pajamas as if taken from his bed. The air grew thick and heavy as the light spread to encompass the boy, then faded to reveal two children, two perfectly identical four-year-old boys wearing identical pajamas and looking at her with identical wide blue eyes.
"Mama?" the two boys spoke in unison. Charlene gasped, her hands going to her mouth. The angel gestured to the boys with one glowing hand.
"Choose," he said. "If you can tell which of these boys is your real son, I will destroy the other and you will take the one you chose home with you."
The words were harsh, and they clearly frightened both boys, who reached out to clutch at each other in fear, looking between the angel and Charlene with eyes filled with tears. And Charlene... she searched both children, desperately trying to tell them apart, to tell which one was really her son... and couldn't.
She dropped to her knees and wept for that realization, and wept even harder when she felt two sets of small arms going around her in a hug.
"Justice is done," the angel spoke again, his voice subdued though still echoing with power. "As Heaven is not without mercy, I give your son his mirror, that he shall live and grow always having someone who will love and understand him as he is, even when others who should do so cannot."
That night, the boy known as John Constantine Novak ceased to exist. Charlene suffered her husband's anger at what she had done, but refused to choose between the boys and insisted that they had twins. Unable to tell them apart even so much as one from the other when dressed alike, she simply renamed them as John Castiel and James Constantine Novak and told herself it was better this way. She said it to the rest of her family, and her husband's family, and the neighbors, and even the local judge. And she said it to herself, quietly and often, until she could pretend that she really had given birth to twins, and quickly shut down anyone who suggested that one of her sons might be a changeling.
As the twins grew, they diverged further apart into two separate people with different personalities, likes and dislikes, and different expressions of autistic symptoms. They could always understand each other, developed their own methods of communicating in touch and soft hums. With such common names as "John" and "James", the two quickly settled on the nicknames of "Cas" and "Jimmy" to be called when they entered school. Cas had more difficulty with social interaction and picking up on social cues, but Jimmy was always able to explain it to him. Jimmy was better at masking his own difficulties so long as Cas was nearby, but quickly became overwhelmed without his brother. They both had different preferences for stimming, Jimmy preferring to tap or stroke his fingers along a familiar texture while Cas preferred to fiddle with or twist something small. One of their friends gave Cas a fidget ring, a simple band of metal that could spin around in its cradle where it sat on a finger, and while Cas loved the spinning he couldn't stand the feeling of the ring constricting his flesh which led to Jimmy wearing it for Cas instead.
And always, always, the quickest way for either one of them to calm down and regain their equilibrium was in each other's arms. From that very first moment in the empty church that neither of them would ever forget through into their burgeoning adulthood, the Novak brothers were each other's primary touchstone. Two halves of a whole, it was frequently said in joking tones, unaware of how true those words really were and how much they made Jimmy and Cas cling to each other all the more. It made dating difficult, even more so than the challenges of trying to navigate attempts at romance when just identifying social cues tended to stress them out. Realizing that neither of them was particularly interested in dating girls only helped a little bit, in that they could claim being gay as why they "ignored" whenever a girl was flirting with one of them. Figuring out the rest, their mother wearily assured them, would just take time.
And then they heard about Lighthouse CommodiTeas, a cafe owned and operated by a faerie sorcerer with powerful magic and a talent for using magical ingredients to make the drinks. Their mother had been diligent about shutting down talk of changelings since that night, but it was still a niggling little concern that sent them to the cafe's door, and then into the apartment above the cafe after hours to talk. Not only did Cas and Jimmy gained the reassurance that they had never been a changeling in the first place, but also that the magic that had split them apart was long gone and could not be undone. A bargain had been struck for a spell to ensure that no one beyond the people who were in the church that night would even remember that they had ever been only one person, to be paid with covering shifts at the cafe for three days. That in turn had led to them both being hired on full time when it became clear to the faerie, who went by the name "Sam", that they really didn't mind moving permanently to the little coastal New Jersey town and staying on.
Three months later and frequent after work visits plus the occasional babysitting of Sam's adopted son Jack, and both Jimmy and Cas were completely and awkwardly smitten with their faerie boss and equally clueless about how to deal with it. It was a question that Jimmy found himself pondering during a rare moment when he was alone at the front of the cafe, Cas in the kitchen with his baking wizardry while Sam and Charlie, the other barista, were in the back office going over the cafe's finances in preparation for tax filing season.
The door chimes jingled, and Jimmy shook off his thoughts in order to attend to the newly arrived customer. "Welcome to Lighthouse CommodiTeas; what can I get started for you?"
"A large Trickster Special and two of whichever cookie's coming out of the oven next, please," the man said with a friendly smile. "Didn't think a faerie would risk serving food to humans."
"All the baked goods are made by my brother, actually," Jimmy explained with a wry smile. "While he uses magical ingredients sometimes in the recipes, we're both human so there's no risk, just reward."
"Your brother, huh?" the man hummed, looking up at Jimmy with thoughtful golden eyes. "Both of you work here, then?"
"Sure do," Jimmy nodded. "I guess some siblings might not enjoy spending so much time together even after becoming adults and leaving home, but it works for us."
"You're both happy then?" the man asked, pinning Jimmy with that golden gaze with an intensity that sent a familiar shiver up Jimmy's spine.
"Yes, sir," he murmured, left thumb curling in toward his palm to press against the band of Cas's fidget ring. "You don't have to worry about us. Ma learned her lesson, and our boss helped make it stick."
"Good," the angel murmured with a faint smile. "I'm glad. How much for the drink and cookies?"
"Uh--" Jimmy hurriedly punched in the individual prices to ring up the total. "Ten-fifty, sir. Er... can I get a name for the order?" It was a longshot, especially when the customer knew he was in a faerie cafe, but Jimmy had been up front about being human and he hadn't specifically asked the angel for his name--
"Gabriel," the angel - Archangel - said, smiling up at Jimmy with a touch of humor glinting in his eyes. "They call me Gabriel."

I think you're super cool!
Any games that you really like?
Tumblr media
I'm a long time follower of Tekken so I'm always happy when a new Tekken is announced :3
Tumblr media
Resident Evil 4 is one of the best games I've played, even when I got stuck with it in such a way that there was no other way out than restart the whole game (they clearly hadn't thought about idiots like me who still can't aim near the end of the game lol). I'm excited for its remake!
Tumblr media
I have played only the first Bayonetta but it was love at first sight! Everything in the first Bayonetta is like made for me. I especially love that the angels' are horrifying looking monsters from your nightmares.
Tumblr media
I've been following Devil May Cry since the game was still on developers' table and we got first screenshots printed on a game magazine about it. Since DMC4 I haven't cared so much about it but I still follow the series and eventually will play each new game. I hope that now when the twin brothers Dante and Vergil are in Hell, DMC6 would literally be inspired by Dante's Inferno and Dante would go through Hell guided by Vergil. Such possibilities, aaaaah! ÖqÖ
Tumblr media
Special mention goes to Katamari-series. In the game, you roll a round katamari and collect stuff with it to make stars (because the main character's father, The King of Cosmos, accidentally destroyed all planets). It's super fun to start from a small katamari and collect needles and stamps and paper clips and end up with a gigantic katamari collecting sky scrapers, small island and clouds! We Love Katamari is the 2nd installment and it's a game of how much people loved Katamari and wanted to roll more :D
Tumblr media
I loved Pokemon Legend Arceus! I have never really played any Pokemon or followed the series but this was so cute and so entertaining I think I need to play more Pokemon games :3
Tumblr media
Breath of Fire 3 is an amazing JRPG from the 90's. If you haven't played this, do yourself a favor AND PLAY IT. The story, the characters, the music. In what else game can you play as a mutated onion with cute screams?
Tumblr media
Wild Arms 3 is also wonderful older JRPG. Very entertaining and straightforward to play. I'm currently still replaying it and this time I aim to finish it, as the last time 20 years ago I got stuck so badly I was unable to finish the game (it has some hard puzzles at times but luckily internet now exists in our pockets :D) Music is good!
Tumblr media
From good music, I must mention a long time favorite Castlevania - The Symphony of the Night. Amazing soundtrack, amazing level design, amazing bosses oh my...! A dream game. <3
Tumblr media
Not many know Bloody Roar series and to be honest, it would deserve a remake. I grew up with Bloody Roar 1 and enjoyed it a lot. It's a fighting game where the characters have an ability to turn into werebeasts, like Yugo here has turned into his wolf form.
Tumblr media
Nier Automata is a game like I have never played or encountered before, it's absolutely INSANE! If anyone says games are just mindless entertainment, make them play this. So many awesome topics. It crushes your soul little by little in most horrifying ways and you're thankful about it. it makes you question your morals and ethics, as well as others' morals and ethics. If you like my comics, I think you'd enjoy Nier Automata, as some themes and elements are in both (though I could never write anything as insanely clever as NA is!)
Tumblr media
The Last Guardian is amazing and very, very Japanese. This game as no aim, no side quests. You just travel with a big beast Trico and try to navigate your way out through different landscapes. Very atmospheric and realistic in a way that commanding Trico is sometimes difficult - just as commanding a wild beast would be. I don't think it was intentional that Trico doesn't do what asked so that you can go forward until after 10 minutes of you trying but I found it realistic when it happened, as frustrating as it was :'D
Of course, Final Fantasy VII, the original one, will go with me to my grave <3 QuQ

The characters From Deian art, and the loud house includes:
Lincoln loud: The Hero Celled EL Tigre Hero
From: KHXhero
Team N.I.F.T.O.T. and Lottie
From: jjsponge120
Now, let’s go right into the story and defeat the evil twins!
———————————————————————————————
We began at Kitto Legends and his twin brother Shoto.
Tumblr media
Along side with their friends hanging out. Some of the few others who are Brandy, Olive, Bart, Alfred and Frederick, they just hung out and talked for a few minutes before something happened, we see Brandy and the others behind the mansion, the backyard where they were just talking and then crap just got real. We begin the story.
We see our friends
“Well, this is freaking boring” Bart says “Any idea you guys got for the summer plans?”
“Yeah- No😒” Brandy replied
“Come on guys we have find things to do in the summer, we’re summer lovers it’s cultural OK?”
“So what the hell do you have in mind my friend?” Alfred Asked Olive.
“Oh come on Alfred! I I expected you to be the one with the ideas for the summer” Olive shouted
“ what’s that’s supposed to mean ?🤣“ Alfred Asked in a funny reaction to Olive who smiled back and replied “ will if anyone besides Brandy I know someone would come with an idea for summer time, it’d be you, you golden kiddo” Olive said, and Alfred replied “ Will the last time I’d come up with an idea was when I said let’s watch something on Youtube and do a Try not to laugh challenge”
Tumblr media
Everyone’s imagination going back that one time they reacted to something pretty intense that made them had a reaction so loud thatAlfred’s ears popped, “Right” Olive said. Bart shouted, saying to the others that got their attention. “ oh hell, yeah I got a crazy idea but first Alfred come with me. I’m gonna need your help.” Frederick’s left eyebrow raised with a curious face replying. “ and what the hell do you need Alfred for exactly Question Mark” Bartz answer “ oh you’ll see and it’s gonna be hell of a funny and a great idea” Bart said. Him and Alfred went to a little bit of a distance, coming up with a plan. “Hey Alfred” Bart whispering to the 12-year-old left ear, “use your shadow magic and I use my powers to create a ball of key energy and let’s launch it Frederick” Bart laughed a chuckle a bit. Alfred with up surprised and curious face he asked a question “Don’t you think that’s a bit of a extreme” I don’t worry he little dude it’s just for fun games, come on use your shadow magic, and I’ll use my key to launch it” Alfred agree, with this extreme idea, even though he seems a little worried, with a smirk on his face. Both of them launched a little bit of their shadow magic and key to make a ball of energy. brandy and olive, tapping the bottom of her chin to get Olive’s attention. All they said “Frederick!” Olive said with a worried face, “You might wanna look behind you” Brandy said. “What?” Frederick asked as he turned his back. To see his little brother and his friend Bart watching the key energy ball at him before he can even get hit with his agility. “Bart! You ButtHole!” Frederick shouted from the top of his lungs, “ Aaa man he dodged it” bored. face because he missed the blow to his friend.
Brandy said “next time get a better aim”
“Oh shut up Brandy”
That blast that was harmless that exploded near the mansion and did no damage, but somehow, something reflect the blast into Shoto’s room. It hit a minor and then everything went silent,
then…
out of nowhere a portal was opening in that mirror and what came out of it. Something change Alfred quite a bit in the rest was quite freaky.
She changed Alfred…
A purple sweater hand came for through the mirror, and bright red glowing eyes was looking at the viewer, with a line on its face that makes a smile in the eyes form into a evil glare with a smile, and what come out was was into younger boys and she is about to take what she wants and needs for her purpose.
We cut to the next scene to the 5 children and Alfred look to his right and saw 4 other children that seemed like their age,
“Uuaaammm guys!” Alfredo said with a surprise face getting the other attention. And what stood before them looks exactly like Bart, Frederick, Brandy and Olive,
“What the hell” Olive shouted of confusion,
Holy carp What?! Bart said
Who the hell are you guys?!
Alfred and Brandy surprised with worry,
Alfred hiding behind Brandy.
“My name is Fred, and those are my friends,
And we’re after KittyToe” The boy who looked like Frederick.
“Hey name’s Lars” The other boy who looks like Bart,
“And my name is Olivia” The girl who looks like Olive
“ My name is Bella, the leader of the group, and I’m sure that whitehead little bastard told you about us, right?” The girl who looked like Brandy said.
Brandy replied with the protecting face on her, guarding Alfred that’s behind her back with confused and worried face on the frightened boy.
“ Now that I think about when I asked him how was his mission? He did said he saw and fought some other groups of evil people in some other world he went to, and that it was difficult to fight cause they looked others that’s he’s friends with, so perhaps you are the ones who he fought?”
Bella replied “yes that’s correct” with a smirk on her face as she looked behind her and said “ But did he tell you what we want? You just happen to have what we want, will what I want… who I want. I’ll gladly show you who is the boy I kissed” in an instance she teleported towards the frightened boy and then hugged him and before Brandy could realize she was behind her, she teleported instantly again this time with Alfred.
In the middle of a groups she teleported herself and Alfred in an instant,
Alfred was confused and unable to even react in time of what she did next, Bella grabbed Alfred by the shirt and kissed him on the lips, surprising him all of them, well, Alfred lips was on Bella‘s lips. Her hair started to grow and wrap around the boy to hold him. Frederick tried to rush in and see his brother, but again she teleported instantly,
And he was met with her again, but she was glowing purple, as if it was a shadow, but the shadow change black to dark purple teleporting behind him instantly again, grabbing his scarf and him sending him flying. She was so fast, that would explain some bruises last time that kittyToe had sometime ago, that must’ve been her.
Then she teleported it before Olive Bart and Brandy could even jump on her, Bella shouted “ up here,” the three looked up and before they could even react, She front flip rolling, and pull out her right leg and then she blasted, launching everyone and sant them flying in mid air. The blow from the impact made them go unconscious. Alfred was left speechless and couldn’t do anything to help them or break free from Bella, then Bella Slowly pulled down Alfred putting his hat back on his head that was blow away from the impact. Bella said to the others “ OK I got what I wanted. Let’s get out of here before the twins come back with the other heroes”
To Be Continued…

NBD just crying over Action Comics 1060 (in a good way but also a sad way because DC is being VERY DUMB and ending PKJ’s run in favor of a Jason Aaron Bizarro filler arc ohhhhhh how I weep bitter tears of frustration)
…Anyways, spoilers!
So 1060 is the penultimate installment of PKJ’s (stellar, spectacular, phenomenal, brilliant, top-tier) run on Action Comics and I just want to applaud him—for a lot of things, really, but in *this* specific case, I wanna stand and cheer because he’s making it EXTREMELY CLEAR that the twins (who are not actually twins) are in fact, Clark’s kids. No question, no ambiguity; Otho calls him papa, Clark refers to her as his daughter, and he’s willing to travel through LITERAL HELL to get her back.
It’s entirely possible that future writers will try to get rid of these kids, but I appreciate that PKJ has made it *very* difficult for them. XD Any retcon they’d come up with would be so messy. (Of course, saying this, I realize that the more depressingly realistic outcome here isn’t that writers actively try to erase them, but rather, will probably sideline/ignore them, trot them out for generic precocious kids stuff every now and then, and wait for the next line-wide reboot to ‘streamline’ Clark aka toss out anything mildly interesting and/or additive to Clark’s corner of the DCU.)
Right. Sorry. Salty tangent. XD
So anyways here’s some panels that tugged on my ‘Aunt Kara’ heartstrings.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
‘I know sweetie. I know. It’s so hard, not knowing.’ HOW VERY DARE.
There’s also a really great page wherein Kara gets Osul to calm down by reminding him of a…I think Phaelosian legend? Or possibly Kryptonian, I know she was trying to find stuff for them in a previous issue.
(Went back and it’s actually the House of Ra fable; the House of El’s is ‘Nightwing and Flamebird’, Ra’s is ‘Red Son and Starchild’.)
I love that Lois lets Kara and Osul have that moment, that space; I maintain that while Clark has a better handle on getting what the kids went through on Warworld given that he was there, and Lois obviously has more experience with raising kids that have unique needs thanks to Jon being half alien, but *Kara* is more readily equipped to sympathize with Otho and Osul’s struggles with transitioning to Earth life, based on her current, canon characterization. (Which is, uhhhh…Woman of Tomorrow and alsoooooo…Rebirth? Maybe? WoT is def canon, the recent SG one shot visually referenced Kara’s departure from Argo.) But I digress!
Speaking of the kids’ struggles…Otho is Going Through It. The stuff with Sister Shadow (AKA Norah Stone AKA evil daughter of an alt universe Bruce and Talia) trying to tempt her to the dark side by preying on her trauma/difficulty adapting to her new home and revealing a future, tyrannical version of herself is some wonderfully juicy character work, both from the perspective of fleshing out Otho AND being additive to Superman’s roster of villains; that’s something I love about PKJ’s approach to world building overall. Yes, he’s revamped some of Superman’s established bad guys (Metallo, Mongul) but he’s also added awesome new foes, like Norah Stone, and Pyrrhos.
I really hope DC lets him do like. A mini series on his original Kryptonian/House of El characters. I would honestly love to read about all these cool new, additive elements, than deal with the Luthor cameo fest over in Superman rn. XD
In conclusion: DC once again shying away from anything interesting and new with Superman in favor of the safe status quo. -_- I mean, I hope I’m wrong. I hope the new ‘Superman Superstars’ opt to build on the solid foundation PKJ has set up. But given what happened with Bendis? Creators’ absolute refusal to incorporate any of the canon he built, because they knew DC would walk it back ASAP? (And the Superman group editor openly admitting that was his number one priority as soon as he GOT THE JOB???) Just shows a complete lack of faith in your creators, and doesn’t really give me too much hope for one of the few remaining titles I look forward to each month.
…but hey, hopefully Marilyn Moonlight will be neat??? XD
(Also LET A WOMAN WRITE A MAIN SUPERMAN BOOK YOU COWARDS.)

Ideas pt 14/headcanons for the O'hair twins! Blue=concpets Pink=episode ideas Green=notes
Here are MORE IDEAS if EAH ever got a reboot. But this post is special... IT'S ALL ABOUT THE O'HAIR TWINS!
Note: I haven't seen any of the web episodes but I have seen the show! So don't judge if I get something wrong! ALSO I thought that the long-hair twin was Poppy and the other Holly. And I personally like my way better. So yeah. Check out my ideas pt 12 post since this is kind of a continuation.
Ok so I know that everyone thought that she was the older twin so that meant that she was the next Rapunzel but in the web episode their grandma tells them that Holly is older by a hair lol and that she's TECHNICALLY the next Rapunzel but she doesn't want to be so it's a family secret kind of thing.
I feel Holly wouldn't want to come to Ever After High knowing that she has no destiny and sees no point. But over the summer it's all Poppy can talk about. She's so excited! And tries to convince Holly all summer to come with her. "Maybe you'll find something you'll like! You could discover that you do have your own destiny!" "I'm sorry Poppy but you know that's not true. You're older. There's only so much destiny to go around. And I doubt I'll find something that will spark my interest so much that I'll suddenly 'write my own destiny'. " "But I would hate to be away from you for so long!" "It's ok Poppy!" *smiles* "I'll be ok here home-schooled." (I feel the twins would be home-schooled for some reason) "No way! If you're not going then I'm not going!" WHAT! No! Poppy I-" "Nope!" *plops down on her bed and crosses her arms* "I won't go off into some magical life-changing school and leave my OWN sister alone with her thoughts convincing herself that she's not special when she's the most special person in the world to me! Not gonna happen!" *a couple of weeks later school has already started and it's after legacy day* H: "I still can't believe that you're not going!" *sits down for breakfast* P: "There's practically no point now. Legacy day was yesterday I doubt they would have accepted any new students at that point." *they talk while eating breakfast* R: "Morning girls!" H/P: "Morning mom!" R: "Now, Poppy are you sure you still don't want to go to school? I know that Legacy Day was yesterday but H: "No thanks, Mom! If Holly's not going then I'm not going!" *smiles* R: "I Love how close you two are!" "Well, I'm going to bring your grandmother her tea, shout if you need anything!" *Leaves* *The girls continue to eat while Poppy blabs about something* *In Holly's mind* H: "I don't want Poppy to throw her whole destiny away for me! This is all my fault. She deserves to go to a REAL school with other royals like her and not be stuck with some no-destiny nobody like me." "Holly? Holly! HOLLY!" *Holly snaps out of her thinking stage* "Uh, yeah?" "I asked if you wanted to come horseback riding with me later" "Oh! Uh yeah! Totally!" *Poppy looks at her sister weirdly but figures she was just lost in thought and starts to talk again* *A few minutes later their mother and grandmother come downstairs to join them* G: "Morning girls!" "Morning Grandma." R: "I'll get your food Mom" *Raps and her mom start to talk about Raven at legacy day* H: "Wait what did you say?" G: "Oh? You girls haven't heard?" *shakes their heads* "Raven queen, the daughter of the evil queen didn't sign the storybook of legends yesterday!"
(I know that the twins' arrival was a web episode but I'm not sure if the rest of the gang were still first years or not. In case they aren't I want them to be. So this little concept/episode idea for why the twins come to EVA a little late. I want to them to arrive after Legacy Day so still in season 1. This episode's idea is a 2 parter. My idea first then pt 2 is the actual episode when they arrive.)
I'll post part 2 to this in a second. (part 23 and 24)

Servant of Evil
Tumblr media
HotE! Kiana x older sister! Herrscher! Reader
Warning!: grammar stuff, rushed, no proofread, very long?
Uh… Kingdom au???? sorry i spend the whole day writing this. I’m more and more confused when i write it near the end.
Inspired by the song Servant of Evil (english cover)
——————————————————————————————————
Long ago at a Kingdom in a royal family where the twins are born and the oldest were destined as the body double of the youngest, no one knows the truth other than the king, the queen and the oldest sibling, the youngest were separated from the oldest and was taken to the lines of King/Queen right after they have come into this world
While the oldest was taken to the personal maid along with the body double lesson.
In the old legends it said anyone who is born with a pair of golden eyes are destined to destroy humanity unless they were executed before they had fully developed their power, old legends called it “ Herrscher of the End ”.
This world still have Honkai Valkyries were called as the defender of humanity and the Herrscher were called as the servant of the evil, golden eyes are the prove which it unfortunately appears on the youngest the royal family had close down the information of the youngest’s peculiar eyes color and anyone who was there on the day of the arrival of the twins were wipe out from this world.
Kiana went on a berserk right after she opened her eyes and Siegfried the king ordered to isolate the youngest from the world until she was stable down, guards are all over Kiana’s palace and no one is allowed to enter other than the maids and the king queen itself.
At the age six, the isolated princess was given a personal maid who is the same age as her. 
“ Princess Kiana, your father requires your presence at his office.”
“ Father needs me? ”
 The maid nodded as the youngest got down from the wall. At the other side of the wall she saw children of the same age playing together while her father isolated her from the outside world and was homeschooling in the castle. Kiana never understood why.
They arrived at the office
*knock knock *
“ You may come in. ”
Kiana noticed a girl beside Father who has the same hair colour as her except that pair of Blue eyes same as Fathers and Mothers, sliver white haired tied and rested in front of your right shoulder, Siegfried gives you a nod and walk towards Kiana and bowed.
“ (Y/n) meet my daughter Kiana… Kiana meets your personal maid and playmate. ”
“ Princess Kiana, it's a great honour to serve you. 
“ F-Father…?  ”
The princess looks at her father who is now in front of her and Siegfried patted her head.
“ She will be with you when your mother and I are out on the battlefield. ”
“ (Y/n) if you may, Do teach about the power she held in her hand and if we didn’t come back when the third war started, you have the authority to crowned her. ”
“ Understand My lord.”
Little did she know…
Everything take a turn when her father said.
Age of Nine.
Kiana has full control of her power thanks to (y/n) and now she can freely go outside without any trouble but (y/n) is always with her no matter what and even at school, some citizens say they are like siblings. The golden is sealed away but for not long.
Third Honkai war had started and the rulers of the Kingdom were away on the battlefield leaving everything on the youngest sibling’s shoulder.
“ (Y/n)! (Y/n)! Check this out my test results come out! ”
“ Oh? My lady, if you get good grades I will teach you Kaslana’s battle skill . ”
“ Really?! ”
“ Really. ”
“ (Y/n) is the best! ”
The same old energetic Kiana…
But a princess can’t have that childlike behaviour, the war is gonna end in a year, Kiana has to understand she is gonna take over the kingdom at some point If Siegfried and Cecilia didn’t come back.
Age of eleven 
The news of the King and Queen’s death hit the youngest like a truck… 
It was not long, the celebration of the youngest being crowned Kiana didn’t know much and the people who’s under her started to make little moves.
Kiana's personality starts to take a 90 degrees turn.
She let out the fact she was the “ Herrscher of the End ” other kingdoms start to fear her and the princess has gain the title of “ The master of Honkai”, Guards that was once guarding the castle were placed as Honkai beast, citizens are kept in their houses, one wrong move and anger the Queen say goodbye to your life.
Age of thirteen 
The kingdom has fallen to two sides one the rebellion soldiers, citizens, knights and the corrupted government.
But for (Y/n) she meets someone she likes for the first time.
With one hand holding a groceries bag you hum a random tune while walking down the street but out of nowhere on your right side alley a bluish-purplish haired girl runs out and bumped into you.
“ Oh dear… sorry..”
“ Is fine! Are you alright? ”
The girl look up and you…. You feels like your heart is gonna bust and the oldest smiled unconscious, is this what they called? Love at the first sight?
“ I’m alright thanks… my name is Hua, stranger what’s yours?”
“ Mine is (Y/n). ”
In the end the duo make up a plan to meet up sometimes but unfortunately fate doesn’t allow them to be together, few weeks later you were summoned by Kiana to meet her at the throne room.
The cold Throne room and Kiana in her herrscher form, you walks in without any fears, you will do anything to make her smile even if using you as a pawn.
“ Your highness..”
The oldest one knee kneels on the red carpet.
“ You may get up…
 (Y/n)… i need your help to erase someone out.”
“ And that is? ”
“ A woman named Hua ”
Hua…?
No this is not time, it is Kiana's wish that can make her happy, love aren’t that important than my dearest sister.
“ As you wish your highness.”
With one last bow you head out to meet up Hua which you lured her outside of the main town the white haired girl hugs Hua.
“ Is there something wrong (y/n)? ”
“ Hua…. I'm sorry but this is my queen’s order..”
After you finish you pulls out a dagger behind you and stab her in the heart.
“ I’m truly sorry… ”
The girl watches Hua’s body fall on the ground, the sky darkens and rain starts to pour down, mixed with tears on your face.
Is this truly worth it…?
Age of fourteen
Citizens, knights and Valkyries under the pressure of the evil kingdom have held out a revolution against the queen.
The twins are trapped in the throne room while the youngest wish the oldest to escape without her, it is her own problems she started and it is time to end it.
“ (Y/n) Go now! I can hold them back! ”
You didn’t reply but instead you reached to the right side of the room, a back tall cage with a light blue sparrow in it. You open the cage and hold out a finger to let it hop on, heading out to the balcony and watch it free to the wild.
“ (Y/n)? ”
Kiana turns around to find you behind her and holds a replica of the dress you wear, her eyes widened when your eyes start to change to golden.
“ Y-you… are also one like me..? ”
“ Yes, come and quickly change your clothing and go in my place. We don’t have much time. ”
A snap sound pass and now Kiana is in your dress you wear regularly, you turned around to face the throne door and a hand hold the back of your dress.
“ What about you? ”
“ I will stay behind and wait while you make your escape. ”
Kiana hugs you from behind left with sobbing sounds and people yelling outside.
“…. (Y/n) As your queen… I ask you to escape with me! ”
“ I'm sorry Kiana, but it will be okay… l was born to live this day.”
“ Wha-what..”
You hold one of her hands gently.
“ l am your older sister… right from the start i was destined to be your body double, don’t you think how weird it is when father ordered me to be your personal maid? ”
“ So this whole time…. You are with me… ”
“ Now go Kiana, not a single soul would know you got away.”
Kiana lets go and gives one more look then escapes using the void portal.
With a sigh the oldest unties her hair as it spreads down your back and the dress you are wearing are now the Herrscher’s outfit, diamond shaped wings behind you and put yourself together.
*BANG*
“ HERRSCHER OF THE END! YOUR BRUTAL CONTROL ACT WILL BE ENDED RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW! ”
“ You insects dared to fight against a god? Let’s see what you can do.”
“ ( i hope if someday we’re reborn and are pardoned our crimes, lets us live in a normal life with mom and dad.) ”
.

. . .
Meanwhile in another bubble world..
“ Mrs and Ms. Kaslana, congratulations is a twin baby girl!. ”
“ Cecilia, you did a great job… ”
The tired woman held the twins in her arms while the male supports her and a small midget rushed to her side.
“ Let’s name the oldest (Y/n) and for the youngest… Theresa… would you like to do the honor? ”
The short girl looks up at the moon.
“ What about ‘ Kiana ’ ?
“ A moon goddess huh?… it’s a great name. ”
