#my parents used to complain about how i was always in the room... yeah bc you all are always in the damn kitchen đ i like my privacy. my
Hiori yo x black reader
(A/N): was literally complaining bc like how is he black but thereâs NO black readers??? But I found out whoâs clogging up the blue lock tagđAnd then I realized I can do it my fucking self lmao. HC him as Nigerian bc like weâre never gunna get any cultural background info on him bc they never tell us about the parents(unless itâs central to their backstory and even then theyâre the main characters not their parents.) so Iâm making up my own loreâš his dad is Nigerian who immigrated to Japan and hiori very rarely sees his dads side of the family bc they live elsewhere and his parents donât care about him knowing family heâs supposed to be their trophy
Hiori yo:
- okay so boom
- This happens in his blue lock era obviously
- His parents rarely let him play w kids bc he was always training if you peep in the manga
- Only has some idea of some form of cultural heritage
- He was blessed cursed with only his mothers genetics so looking more like her has him skirt around a lot of that racism
- He probably makes friends with all the other mixed kids but gets viscerally uncomfortable when he sees them getting micro-aggressed
- Makes him think twice about showing up to school with his hair not styled like his mom
- Spends 90% of his time gaming anyway so like he doesnât have to go outside
- When he runs away to blue lock life starts to have color
- I think post U-20 arc he spends those two weeks at home hanging out with karasu because heâs not gunna let him sit inside and rot around his shitty parents for two weeks
- Karasu definitely introduces you to him
- You were one of his friends from school he used to chill with and heâs like you would be good for hiori
- Karasu 100% condones your bad influence like lmao he wants to see hiori be a MENACE to society
- Heâs smirking in the background as you bring his inner ultra sadist out
- He messes up your hair and will laugh when you get mad
- âstoooop iiiiit youâre messing up my hair!â
- âaww does the princess not like their hair being touched?â
- âNot when I took a long time to do it this morning!â
- Will immediately get flustered if you say you like his hair
- hide the flat iron from him!!
- I feel like heâs lowkey insecure about usually being like the only black kid in the room
- And he speaks in a different accent than a lot of them?
- Yeah pack it up!
- *he doesnât really think much of his appearance. he thinks he looks okay and he isnât really confident about his skin complexion. he isnât dark skin but he isnât light skin either.*
- His chat Ai gave me that unprompted so itâs canon now sorry :/
- Yknow how boys will say the most traumatic shit out of nowhere?
- âdo you really think that Iâm pretty? even my skin complexion and everything?â
- âI sure do! Anyone who says differently is a colorist racist loser . Thereâs nothing wrong with you or your completion. Like youâre one of the only people who made me feel welcomed here are you fr?â
- Karasu is glaring at you though for having him make pale people jokes.
- Heâs very lowkey about how snake like he is so heâs the âyou canât say that shit in public!â Friend, while you donât care about getting cancelledđ
- âbut please donât let anyone the shade of printer paper make you feel bad about your melanin beloved.â
- âThe snow roaches are usually too scared to try something because Iâm tall:/â
- âWE ARE IN A CONNIVENCE STORE PEOPLE CAN HEAR YALLâ
- heâs trying his best really but heâs just one crowđ
- Donât let tea about his parents make it back to your ears bc itâs really on sight for that man AND that snow bunny đĄ
- âDoes your dad ever like talk to you about his culture?? does he say anything outside of trying to make you into some star striker??â
- Mf just shrugs his shoulders.
- ânot really. my parents donât care about anything other than my success. they donât care about my happiness or how i feel..â
- âYo, baby âŠ.. imma beat your parents assđ is your dad Nigerian? Bc that feels like textbook immigrant parent behavior.â
- ââŠâŠ. I REALLY donât like how you knew that.â
- âMy next guess would have been Guyanese.â
- Hes giggling tho bc I donât think he really talked shit about his parents w nobody like REALLY really
- Just watching them fight 24/7 as a kid took a toll on my poor baby soul IK
- Spoiler for his backstory but I mean not really??
- His parents saying that if he didnât become the best they would get a divorce made my jaw hit the stairs of hell
- ââyou really know a lot about this kinda stuff?,,,,but yeah, nigerian parents are hella strict. they expect high grades from us and if we donât reach those high grades, weâre basically disowned..â
- See me personally I have tattoos, colored hair and piercings and my mom fresh off the banana boat carribean
- âLike Dr umar said âyou will be never get freedom unless you take itâ Itâs like a hostage situation!â
- âIs that how you have them long ass acrylics?â
- ââŠ.I took itđâ
- He will never bring you home bc youâre always 5 mins from punching his mom in the mouth and he really cannot handle that especially when heâs gone 24/7 in blue lock and canât talk to you
- They donât know you but know youâre a bad influence so they hate you from afar
- Very pro âtraumatize your parents backâ and karasu right there w you
- Heâll he can even scoop up yukumiya to be on demon timeđ
- âhit em with the âwhat if I stop soccer?â And they have nowhere to run but just sit there seething because they need you.â
- âRight the cards are in your hands.â
- ââŠ..Respectfully love, youâre a whole ass delinquent and karasu youâre a scammer. Iâm not taking advice from people with active warrantsđâ
- Now back on my bullshit
- He be so fine when he use metavision
- Like he knows that if he glances over at you during one of his games heâs gunna find you squirming in your seat
- Looks at you after he scores a goal every time and flashes you that shit eating grin
- Win or loose heâs getting his dick wet!!
- Have a safe word
- Heâs never gunna try to push you past your limits in a way that will hurt you
- Buuuuut he is pretty mean
- Imagine that cute innocent looking face smiling down at you with his round doe eyes
- Calling you a dumb slut
- Man is a menace and probably gets a higher sex drive the more he fucks
- Not even out of like lust overtaking him he just will be randomly thinking about how he had you on your knees in this very locker room before
- And now feels the strong urge to split you open on his cock
- Itâs fun for him like a game
- And he always wins
- Only way you can get him is to outsmart him but like thatâs once in a blue moon so good luck Charlieđ
- Mans is 6â1 so heâs effortlessly manhandling you and giggling at how much your body is screaming for him
- âShit, ya keep squeezing me like that and I wonât be able to pull out.â
- Again because he dosent have a high libido as a carnal thing certain NORMAL shit will set him off
- Like you was talking about the weather now he has you bent over the couch??
- Nicknames would be one
- You call him blueberry and heâs ready to go
- The cute look on your face and the smile he can see thatâs reserved for him
- The way he can same the hearts in your eyes when you look at him
- He wants to ruin you and make you cry
- Edging is his go too thing
- Will do it until your grabbing at his hands begging him to let you come and heâs laughing his ass off
- âWhy? âS real funny seeing you this pathetic.â
- Heâs very mean in that soft sweet condescending way that pisses you off
- âOw! Yo that hurt!â
- âMmm, donât care.â
- Bites you all over like youâre a chew toy
- Feel like heâs tied with rin and shidou for leaving marks
- Heâs a cheeky little bastard so he will have you in public looking like a mess and he couldnât be more innocent standing right next to you
- âYou good?â
- âYeah,karasu Iâm fine.â
- âYou sure because youâre limping right now.â
- And this fucker is there like âșïžâșïžâșïž
- Weakness is distracting him while gaming
- Heâs very whiney if you suck him off while heâs gaming and has vc on
- Like heâs barely holding back his whimpers and wines as youâre head is buried between his thighs
- (Rin , nagi and him def game like I know they play Minecraft together)
- âOi, hiori you okay? Youâve been pretty quiet.â
- âM good.â
- He is fighting for his sanity!!
- Has locked the door a few times to keep you out
- Accidentally left the mic on when he thought the coast was clear and came HARD
- Rin will never EVER bring that shit up and is taking that secret to the grave
- Does get flustered when he sees you and hiori not-so-subtly sneaking off to have your hands all over each other
- Keeps that memory square in the back of his head to jack off to
- Hiori Yo is a very sadistic man with a lot of confidence
- So he has absolutely no qualms about fucking you in front of his teammates in the locker room
- Oh, the team walked in on him blowing your back out? Nothing is stoping them from showering and changing
- Shares you with isagi like thatâs just what happens
- He wants to see the egoist be mean to you
- This has happened more than once and bastard MĂŒnchen straight up knows if heâs nowhere to be found when they are heading back to the locker rooms
- Heâs in there making you cry on his cock
- âCmon, tell em how much you like creaming around my cock dollface.â
- Particularly of Kaiser is kicking attitude heâll glare at him while youâre on your knees and dare him to try something
- Oh he donât care about doing it in the pxg locker rooms either
- Shidou has unfortunately walked in on him sitting beside you on the ground pushing your head down so you can take Rinâs cock even deeper
- âNe, Rin-Chan. Look at how I can see you in their throat.â
- Hiori if anything isnât going to play by the rules or be fair about it

hello hello,
sorry bc this is a bit long and I got a bit carried away
But basically all my life i thought my home life was super great but looking back on it, it was nice but some slightly (only slightly) questionable stuff [I want to clarify that itâs nothing physical but some of it was a little bit fucked up like I have one stand out memory but also I may have made it up bc idk sometimes Iâm super sure it happened and sometimes Iâm not] went down and now i notice more and more my parents making sexist/homophobic/transphobic jokes and offhand comments and then getting annoyed and yelling at me whenever I try and tell them theyâre wrong.
I also sort of noticed that theyâre a bit too pushy and invasive of my privacy [especially my mother who loves to offload her problems onto me and has since I was pretty small and would just barge into my room at any time and tell me about them and I understand communication is important in families but I donât think 9 is a good age for your mother to regularly be crying to you about how suicidal she feels but she always acted like it was a good thing so I assumed it was too idk] and itâs like half the time they treat me like Iâm way younger than I am [late teen] and the other half of the time itâs like they expect me to be a mature adult and like I just want to be my actual age yk but I canât and tbh I donât even know how to go about doing that now bc I feel like Iâve sort of been stifled and the thing is Iâm not sure how I should actually be feeling about the whole thing because I donât think theyâre actually really bad people [my parents] and I end up feeling guilty about the fact that I just donât want to talk to them anymore [especially my mum] and like ik people who have way worse home lives than me and I feel like itâs being a bit selfish to complain bc sure they make problematic jokes but I donât think theyâd necessarily treat me worse if I came out [non-binary and pan] but also I donât think theyâd be that great about it like my brother came out as bi and they were like ok but then one time when he was away they were talking about âif he gets a girlfriendâ and I said âor a boyfriend bc heâs biâ and they were like âyeah heâs bi but heâs only ever really shown interest in girls so we doubt heâs actually bi but I mean if he got a boyfriend weâd be fine with itâ and I was like on the one hand like it could be worse but it still didnât sit right with me that they just casually assumed he was lying about it even tho heâd literally come outâŠ
also I sort of donât even want to come out atp to them I just want to sort of quietly cut ties or distance myself
so I sort of tried to do that [as much as I can yk being still a minor and living at home] but now Iâve got my mum not so subtly idk tryna guilt trip me. Like sheâll say shit about how I used to talk to her and now I never do and like thereâs a fucking reason [I now actually have friends who I realised I feel way more comfortable around] but ok
Like a while back she came to my room and tried to do the usual complaining thing about how sheâs v depressed and all and I tried to respectfully tell her she needs therapy and she got super upset with me and started crying and stormed out my room and then she came back later and tried again and I told her like as nicely as I could that I canât handle this bc I am just a kid yk as nice as possible I cannot handle my shit let alone yours like my mental health is not great rn and like I want to be there for the ppl in my life not feeling good but also like sheâs been doing this since I was pretty small and thereâs literally no way I can really support her except spending more time with her maybe but then thatâs bad for my mental health especially bc sheâll do offhand shit that she knows I donât like [like I have sensory issues bc Iâm neurodivergent and having a hand put on my shoulder for some reason I just ugh itâs the worst - and ever since she noticed that I would pull away sheâs started doing it more and every time I pull away she makes jokes about how she must have âa disease or somethingâ and just UGH sorry it infuriates me]
so basically [sorry for the suuuper long ask] Iâm not sure what the right thing to do is, like do I try and remedy the relationship with my parents [but especially my mum] or do I just sort of keep going like this till Iâm at uni or what?
again sorry this is way too long
Hi love! First of all, I wanna give a TW to people reading:
TW: mentions of suicidal thoughts
Okay, I'm gonna take this one section at a time:
But basically all my life i thought my home life was super great but looking back on it, it was nice but some slightly (only slightly) questionable stuff [I want to clarify that itâs nothing physical but some of it was a little bit fucked up like I have one stand out memory but also I may have made it up bc idk sometimes Iâm super sure it happened and sometimes Iâm not]
Okay chances are you're not making it up. Thinking you're making it up is a super common symptom of guilt trips and gaslighting. If you think it happened...it probably did.
went down and now i notice more and more my parents making sexist/homophobic/transphobic jokes and offhand comments and then getting annoyed and yelling at me whenever I try and tell them theyâre wrong.
This is NOT okay of them. They're being disrespectful.
I also sort of noticed that theyâre a bit too pushy and invasive of my privacy [especially my mother who loves to offload her problems onto me and has since I was pretty small and would just barge into my room at any time and tell me about them and I understand communication is important in families but I donât think 9 is a good age for your mother to regularly be crying to you about how suicidal she feels but she always acted like it was a good thing so I assumed it was too idk]
Uhm hi hello hi. NO. No no no. This is NOT okay. Parents do NOT tell their children about their suicidal feelings. Absolutely not. This is a classic example of parentification. You, even as a teenager, are the CHILD. You are NOT responsible for your parents, and you should not feel any sort of pressure to help with their wellbeing. Nope.
and itâs like half the time they treat me like Iâm way younger than I am [late teen] and the other half of the time itâs like they expect me to be a mature adult and like I just want to be my actual age yk but I canât and tbh I donât even know how to go about doing that now bc I feel like Iâve sort of been stifled and the thing is Iâm not sure how I should actually be feeling about the whole thing
yup. parentification. You've been expected to take on the role of a parent when convenient and act like a child when convenient. this is not okay and you're absolutely right to feel weird and bad and resentful about it.
because I donât think theyâre actually really bad people [my parents]
And here's the thing: that can also be true. A lot of times, parents can both love you/be good people AND unintentionally be hurtful. But in a way, that can be even more difficult because like...how do you explain to someone who thinks they're not being hurtful that they ARE?
and I end up feeling guilty about the fact that I just donât want to talk to them anymore [especially my mum] and like ik people who have way worse home lives than me and I feel like itâs being a bit selfish to complain bc sure they make problematic jokes but I donât think theyâd necessarily treat me worse if I came out [non-binary and pan] but also I donât think theyâd be that great about it like my brother came out as bi and they were like ok but then one time when he was away they were talking about âif he gets a girlfriendâ and I said âor a boyfriend bc heâs biâ and they were like âyeah heâs bi but heâs only ever really shown interest in girls so we doubt heâs actually bi but I mean if he got a boyfriend weâd be fine with itâ and I was like on the one hand like it could be worse but it still didnât sit right with me that they just casually assumed he was lying about it even tho heâd literally come outâŠ
also I sort of donât even want to come out atp to them I just want to sort of quietly cut ties or distance myself
so I sort of tried to do that [as much as I can yk being still a minor and living at home] but now Iâve got my mum not so subtly idk tryna guilt trip me. Like sheâll say shit about how I used to talk to her and now I never do and like thereâs a fucking reason [I now actually have friends who I realised I feel way more comfortable around] but ok
Like a while back she came to my room and tried to do the usual complaining thing about how sheâs v depressed and all and I tried to respectfully tell her she needs therapy and she got super upset with me and started crying and stormed out my room and then she came back later and tried again and I told her like as nicely as I could that I canât handle this bc I am just a kid yk as nice as possible I cannot handle my shit let alone yours like my mental health is not great rn and like I want to be there for the ppl in my life not feeling good but also like sheâs been doing this since I was pretty small and thereâs literally no way I can really support her except spending more time with her maybe but then thatâs bad for my mental health especially bc sheâll do offhand shit that she knows I donât like [like I have sensory issues bc Iâm neurodivergent and having a hand put on my shoulder for some reason I just ugh itâs the worst - and ever since she noticed that I would pull away sheâs started doing it more and every time I pull away she makes jokes about how she must have âa disease or somethingâ and just UGH sorry it infuriates me]
This is what I'm saying: it's super difficult to convince someone they're being hurtful when they truly think they aren't. Trust me, my mother is the same way. But you aren't wrong for wanting to distance yourself. Also, don't compare yourself to other people. You have a DIFFERENT home life, not necessarily a better or worse one.
so basically [sorry for the suuuper long ask] Iâm not sure what the right thing to do is, like do I try and remedy the relationship with my parents [but especially my mum] or do I just sort of keep going like this till Iâm at uni or what?
again sorry this is way too long
Don't be sorry! I guess the first thing I'd say is, all of your feelings are valid, and this sounds super difficult. I'm sorry you have to go through it <3. Here's the thing: You are right. There are some things going on in your house that aren't okay. But the reality is, your mom doesn't seem to be willing to hear your opinion about changing them. SO, where do you go from here?
I think the two major things I've had to learn with my (very similar) mother is:
Set boundaries and stick to them. If she's dumping on you and you can't handle it, tell her it's not okay. Keep politely telling her this. There is NOTHING WRONG with doing this, even if she tells you otherwise.
Take what you can get, but don't get your hopes up. Does she want to take you out to lunch? Great. She wants to hang out after school? Awesome. But don't...rely on her to be more than she is.
If you're able to do these two things in a healthy way, this might be your best bet until you turn of age and you're able to reevaluate if you want a long-term relationship or not. But honestly, if you're financially dependent on her, separating from her completely might not be the best idea if you are safe.
The ONLY thing that makes me nervous about this whole situation is your mention of your mom's suicidal thoughts, so I'll leave you with this:
if your mom is scaring you with the way she is talking, call the authorities. You are a minor, and you should NEVER have to deal with that on your own.
No matter what happens, no matter WHAT your mom does, no matter what you do or don't say/do or don't do, your mother's decisions are her own. Nothing she does is your fault.
If you feel comfortable, please DM me! I'm being genuine when I say our moms sound similar, and I would love to talk more <3
P.s. I just want to say that, you are SO smart, as a teenager, to realize that this behavior is not okay. Good for you <3

as a steve lover my body vibrates at the thought of someone like eddie just smothering him in love and appreciation and touching on him sweetly BC HE DESERVES IT EVERY TIME. SO when you write this or give us fics like this i get so happy i feel like ill explode.
Omfg Anon, get ready to eat. This request took over my soul and left it on autopilot. It's honestly not even a request but I took it as one anyway. Thank you for your love and support, it means everything to me. I really hope you love this as much as I do. Here is a link or you can read below!
***
â-A high of 64 tomorrow, but watch out for this weekend because itâs looking like itâs gonna-â The news anchor was cut off by the high pitched sound of static as the tv turned off, not that Steve had been paying any mind to what the weatherman had been saying anyways. He was in one of his âweird moodsâ again. The kind where the quiet of his house overwhelmed him, sleep escaped him, and conversation exhausted him.Â
The sun shined outside, but it was a gray day. Not the sky, the sky was blue, but the air in his house, his tomb on bad days, was thick with smog. It was a random Thursday in October, nothing noteworthy about it, but it also marked 4 months and 13 days since heâd seen his parents, not that anyone was counting. He tried counting once, when he was a lot younger and much more desperate, he made it to 43 days before he gave up, feeling a bit too much like a prisoner counting the days in a life sentence. He didnât know if he feared the corrupt guards that would beat him into submission or the loneliness more.
Michael and Janet Harrington werenât really physical, not anymore at least. They preferred to barb their words of affection with the sting of hatred, but they hadnât laid a finger on him since he was little, before he knew better. He knew the gray would give way to a pit of darkness, what with the way his mind was moving, wishing for those sharp smacks and subtle shoves because at least he could feel it.Â
Maybe he was just tired.Â
It felt like he was always a little tired nowadays. He wished more than anything that he could just get a fucking grip. Poor little Steve, who never got hugs from his parents between the lavish gifts and large allowance. Some people had real struggles.Â
His mind always supplied him with the pale face of Will Byers. Eyes surrounded with dark shadows, a kind kid that always feared violence because heâs seen it at such a young age from Lonnie. He saw Max and Billy who lived in constant fear, both of each other, but also of Neil. He caught himself imagining a young Eleven on many occasions, head shaved in a military lab with nothing but a number to differentiate her from the kid in the next white room. Hell, he sometimes even thought about Sarah Hopper. Heâd never met her, of course, but he could imagine what a tough little girl sheâd been. He wasnât a parent, but knowing the kids the way he knew them, he couldnât fathom how Hopper could even breathe every day, knowing what heâd lost.Â
So, yeah, maybe his skin was crawling with an itch he couldnât quite reach, but he had no right to complain.
***
âSunny and breezy today, but the weekend doesnât bode well. If you track th-âÂ
âWhy the hell do you look like that?â Robin mused as she changed the channel on the store tv.
âI somehow overslept and underslept.â Steve grumbled, running his hands through his disheveled locks of hair. They werenât falling right and with the state of his mind, they were working their way to being the straw that broke the camelâs back. âDays like this make me miss the hats from Scoops.â
âHow do you even manage that, oversleeping and undersleeping?â She gave him a confused look while scanning through the shelves, looking for their morning movie.
âDidnât fall asleep until like 6 this morning, and then I slept through my 7:30 alarm.â He sighed. âAbsolutely not.â He shot down Little Shop of Horrors, a bit too early for Rick Moranis.
âDid you have breakfast? You seem like youâre hungry grumpy.â Robin jumped beside him with a squeak. God heâd love some of her energy. âSoon youâll be saying âFeed me Seymour!ââ She grinned as she popped the movie in the VCR.Â
âNo, but Iâm fine with just coffee.â He nodded towards his mug as he opened the binder of check out logs, flipping through the pages for the correct date.Â
âAre youâŠâ She frowned as glanced at his cup, chipped handle and all. â...Feeling okay? You seem different today, very glum.â
âIâm fine, Robbie, you are just nosy and thinking too much about things that donât exist.â Steve stuck his tongue out at her.
âTrue, but I donât buy it.â She poked his cheek, sending a sharp spike of anxiety through him. If she noticed the subtle side step, she didnât mention it. âYouâre definitely glum.â
âIâm not fucking glum.â He laughed, spinning to face the door as it opened. âWelcome to Family Video!â Dustin rolled his eyes from the doorway.
âJust returning my movie.â He brought the case to the counter. âWhatâs up with two of my favorite adults?â
âWhat do you need?â Steve crossed his arms.
âWho said I needed anything?â Dustin smirked at the tired expression on Steveâs face. âOkay fine, but before I start just know itâs a very noble cause.â Steve sighed deeply before gesturing for him to continue. âMy mom is working the late shift and was stressed about not being able to go grocery shopping before the big-â
â4 Oâclock.â Steve cut him off, turning and walking out the little gate attached to the counter, walking Dustinâs returned movie back to the sci-fi shelf. He glanced back at Dustinâs confused expression, feeling a little smug about the swapped positions. âIâll pick you, and any other dweebs that need a ride, up from school and Iâll take you. I get off at 4.â He turned his attention back to the shelf, scanning for misplaced titles. He gasped suddenly as Dustinâs arms wrapped around him, letting go just as quickly.
âThank you!â He beamed. âYouâre going to take the title of âMomâs Best Boyâ from me.â
âHey remember when we talked about things that will get you made fun of?â Steve smirked as he leaned against the shelf. âAdd saying shit like that to the list.â
âYeah yeah, whatever.â Dustin held up his hands before pulling his backpack on. âWe canât all be High School Royalty.â
âNo, but maybe, just maybe,â Steve stared at the cases of movies on the shelf. âYouâll be something better.â He sighed, thinking of ruffling Dustinâs precious curls, but he knew Dustin preferred to let a very select few people touch them, something he wasnât feeling privileged to at the moment. âNow scram before youâre late to school.â
***
âWhy the hell are there no parking spots?â Steve banged his hands on the steering wheel, the slight sting vibrating through his finger tips.Â
âYou could always park in the expectant motherâs space.â Max sucked on a lollipop, lips slightly stained blue from the sugar.Â
âYeah fucking hilarious.â He mumbled, keeping his eyes peeled until he spotted a pale yellow beetle pulling out of a parking space far from the entrance to the store. âEverybody hold on.â With that he pressed his foot to the gas, flooring it to the spot and quickly turning on his blinker before one of the other circling cars could swoop in.
âFinally!â Dustin shuffled his feet. âI was afraid that if we didnât go inside soon, Iâd pee all over your seats.â
âJesus, alright you weird little poodle, run inside and take a piss.â Steve pressed a hand to his brow, peering at the other kids in the car. âMax itâs a bit of a hike to the doors, do you want to chill here or come inside?â
âIâllâŠâ She thought for a second, clearly appreciating the options. âI think Iâll stay here. We had an assembly today so I had to walk down to the auditorium from the east wing and now my legs are really tired.â
âIâll stay here too.â Lucas, unsurprisingly supplied, never one to leave Max by herself for long.Â
âMe too.â Erica added with a grin. It was nice to see the blossoming friendship between the two, although the possibilities that arose between them terrified him. Erica was like a blow torch on her best days, Max like an atomic bomb on her worst, between the two they could destroy anyone or melt their souls in just a few smart quips. âBut can we keep the batâŠ?â
âYou want me to leave the three of you unattended in a crowded parking lot with a nail filled baseball bat?â Steve raised his eyebrows as Max glanced past him. âYeah why donât I just call the cops awhile and save them the trip to my front door.â
âWell Hopper would never arrest you.â A hand landed on his shoulder, making him jump and gasp. âBut I can keep an eye on the pipsqueaks while you run inside.â
âAh yes I see the headlines now,â Erica smirked. âEx Wanted Murder found in a Marshâs parking lot holding three teens hostage with a nailed baseball bat.â
âYou, my ferocious little tyke, are a preteen.â Eddie booped her nose. âSo suck on that.â He stuck out his tongue at her before pushing past Steve to get in the driverâs seat, fiddling with the radio controls. Steve was still a bit shell shocked, the heat of the hand lingering on his shoulder causing shivers to run up his spine. âYou alright there, Stevie?â
âYeah⊠I umâŠâ Steve squinted before facing him fully. âI wasnât expecting to see you until laterâŠâ
âYeah well I needed to grab some tylenol and wonder bread. Wayne insisted on stocking up befo-â
âSteve what the hell?!â Dustin hollered from the entrance, hands cupped around his mouth. âHurry up, we donât have all day.â Steve rolled his eyes as he flashed Eddie a smirk.
âRun along Little Red, the Big Bad Wolf is waiting.â Eddie winked. Despite the childish grin that came along with seeing his boyfriend, Steve couldnât help the jolt of fear he felt as he realized it wasnât just a one off thing. Something was seriously wrong with him and his inability to touch people without having a reaction of some sort. He just needed to relax, get over his issues, and move on. If not that, then maybe he just needed to hide it better.

âDude Iâm not letting you spend that on an 18 pack of eggs when itâll just be you and your mom at home.â Steve rubbed at his arms gently, feeling the goosebumps across his skin.Â
âMy mom likes to bake when she gets nervous, you know how she is.â Dustin justified as he piled the carton into the shopping cart, crossing off one of the items on his list. âAre you going to rough it at home this weekend orâŠ?â
Steve took a deep breath, the nosiness of his friends killing him. âYou know I donât really have a plan yet. Iâm going to be at Eddieâs tonight for movie night, but otherwise I might hang out at home or pick up a couple of extra shifts. Iâm sure you guys will hassle me into giving you rides at some point.â
âFamily Video is staying open?â Dustin squinted at him while grabbing a loaf of bread from the shelf.
âYeah man, believe it or not weekends are huge business days.â Steve tapped his fingers against the cart, trying to ignore the bum wheel that made the whole cart veer to the left.
âYeah but- Oh batteries!â Dustin sprinted ahead to a display for Duracell. âTriple and double, score!â He turned back to put the packs in the cart before giving a pointed glare at Steve. âIf you were cold, you should have asked Eddie for his jacket, you know he'd give it to you.â
âIâm not⊠what?â Steve glared at him, quickly dropping his hands from rubbing at his shoulders, immediately longing for the simulated touch that they created. âOk are you finished? Theyâre waiting outside for us and I want to get out there before Eddie destroys my car.â
âYouâre being weird.â Dustin bit at him thumbnail. âI know because Iâm an ambassador of weird, but I also know that trying to get you to talk about it is pointless, so letâs just go.â
âHold up, Dipshit,â Steve closed him eyes against the anxiety battering him from inside his skull. Dustin always brought out the best and worst in him, the fear of upsetting the younger boy overruling his bone deep weariness. âIâm not trying to keep stuff from you, you know that right?â
âYouâre not exactly going out of your way to tell me, or anyone else for that matter, anything that matters to you.â Dustinâs eyes met his, flashing with hurt. âItâs like you decide that no one is going to care before you ever give us a shot.â
âIâm notâŠâ Steve sighed. âItâs complicated man. I am entitled to a little privacy, you guys need to understand that. You might have grown up with friends and people that allowed you to feel comfortable about expressing how you feel, but I didnât. Iâm still learning and that takes time, but Iâm also very much allowed to not tell you guys everything, capiche?â
âCapiche.â Dustin muttered, a bit shamefully. âJust⊠talk to someone⊠when it gets bad I mean.â
âYeah yeah yeah, whatever you say.â Steve smirked, pushing the cart into Dustin quickly, causing the younger man to jump out of the way. âIs your list done or what?â
âYes, Mother. We can go check on your precious baby now.â Dustin laughed as they walked toward the checkout line.
âEasy Henderson, just because youâre one of my favorites, it doesnât mean you can make fun of Eddie and I.â Steve huffed as he stuck out his tongue. âBesides, I donât call him my precious baby. Our pet names are way better than that.â
âYeah I was talking about your car, Stevie.â Dustin snickered. Steve could try to deny it, but his blush would always give him away.
***
âWhat the actual fuck?â Steve peered out the window of Eddieâs trailer, wind whipping through the trees, the sky a dark gray behind it. âSince when was there a storm?â
âSeriously?â Eddie gave him a small smile. âTheyâve been talking about it all week on the news and radio and shit. Thatâs why the store was so packed, people trying to stock up.â
âWell shitâŠâ Steve sighed, turning back from the window, eyeing the flickering porch light warily. âIs Wayne going to be okay?âÂ
âHeâs crashing at the warehouse with some of the other guys he works with. They have cots and stuff there, nice and cozy.â Eddie shrugged as he walked into the kitchen and opened the cupboards. He searched for a few moments before letting out a deep breath and closing them without taking anything out. Steve couldnât help but notice the restless, antsy energy that Eddie was carrying himself with.
âWe arenât thrilled about that.â Steve didnât need to guess, it was fairly easy to read Eddie, but it wasnât fair to assume.
âWe are not.â Eddie sighed as he leaned into the counter. âI justâŠâ He paused, considering his thoughts. âItâs stupid, nevermind.â
âHey woah.â Steve swung around the corner, into the tiny kitchen where he hopped onto the counter beside Eddie. âI doubt that itâs stupid, if you feel like talking about it.â
âSometimes it feels wrong to complain about the upside down when I only really experienced it for a day or two.â Eddieâs eyes stared into Steveâs looking for a sign of defensiveness, finding none. âLike you and the kids and everyone else⊠you guys are almost used to this shit and I donât know how to get there.â
âWell none of us are really there, to be honest.â Steve leaned onto his knees, hair falling forward. âItâs not that simple, I donât think. We all have things that make us react differently, you know? Robin hasnât been to the mall, not since last year. Will hates the cold, Hopper too. Itâs stupid to think that youâre above it, itâs not stupid to be affected by it.â
âYouâre pretty smart, Steve.â Eddie grinned.
âIâm trying to be nice, asshole.â Steve chuckled , blush across his cheeks. âIf youâre going to make fun of m-â
âIâm not.â Eddie reached out, grasping Steveâs hand. âIâm not making fun of you⊠I think youâre smart, donât you?â
âI umâŠâ Steve was distracted by the feeling of Eddieâs hand on his own. He stared at it, flinching and pulling away as Eddie adjusted his grip, purposefully ignoring the look the other man shot at him. âItâs not that I donât think Iâm smart, I just that I donât think Iâm as smart as everyone else.â
âWell thatâs bullshit.â Eddie placed his own hand back on his own lap.
âSo Iâve been told.â Steve muttered, glancing up at the roof as the sound of rain hitting the metal filled the trailer. Eddieâs eyes were glued to the window as the wind whipped the fallen leaves into a tornado of reds and oranges. âIs it the storm? Is that whatâs bothering you?â
âSad isnât it.â Eddie didnât move his gaze. âI canât even deal with natural shit.â
âWell the last time it stormed like this-â
âI know what happened the last time it fucking stormed like this, Steve.â Eddie snapped, silence filling the small room. Eddie pinched his brows, regretting the tone.
âDonât yell at me like that, thatâs not very metal.â Steve pouted, crossing his arms.
âNo, I know.â Eddie frowned as he finally met Steveâs gaze. âIâm sorry, I just hate this. Our power already kinda sucks here and now this shitâs going to knock it out entirely and we wonât be able to have our movie night.â
âWhat would help you feel better?â Steve decided to take the direct route.
âI need to just likeâŠâ Eddie hopped down. âI think I need to go out there.â
âIn the storm? Isnât that like⊠counteracting?â Steve glanced at the now determined look on Eddieâs face and he knew that somehow, by the end of the night heâd end up soaking wet from the rain.
âYeah but I think thatâs the point.â Eddie moved into the living room, grabbing a jacket. âI need to prove to my brain that bad shit wonât happen out there.â
âThen Iâm coming out too.â Steve winced as he hopped down, following Eddie.
âCongratulations!!âEddie smirked. âYouâve been in the closet a long time, love.â
âVery funny.â Steve deadpanned, grabbing one of Wayneâs hooded jackets from off the rack.
âItâs what I do best.â Eddie gave him a cat-like grin, grabbing onto the door handle. âAre you sure you wanna go out here? You could get sick.â
âSo could you.â Steve noticed the shaking hand that held the door knob. âBut weâre a team, right?â Eddie winked in lieu of an answer, opening the door, a gust of air hitting them as his breath caught in his throat. âIâm right behind you.â
âThis is stupid, this is so fucking stupid.â Eddie muttered, knees gently shaking as he walked slowly down the steps of the porch. âI literally died right there, what the hell am I doing?â
âOkay well maybe donât picture dying.â Steve gestured to him unhelpfully. âPicture something that doesnât make you think about death. Something that makes you smile.â
Eddieâs creased brow slowly released as he took a deep breath, mental image coming in clearly. âI think itâs working.â
âYeah?â Steve smiled gently, watching as the tension began to leave his boyfriendâs frame. âWhat are you picturing?â
âYou doing the polka in a poodle skirt.â He giggled, a sound that always made Steve melt, even when he was slightly embarrassed of the image Eddie was concocting. âThink I can get a real life vision of that?â
âNo.â Steve shot down instantly. âI donât know how to polka and I donât own a poodle skirt.â
âToo bad.â Eddie sighed, feeling much more at ease as the light banter continued. âThe world is missing out.â A streak of lightning flashed across the horizon, making Eddie jump.
âI do umâŠâ Steve took a deep breath. âI know how to slow dance thoughâŠâ Eddieâs eyes lit up in an instant. âProvided I have the right music, of course.â
âI think I know a tune or two that you would like.â Eddie reached out, entwining his own fingers with Steveâs, pulling them together. Steve sucked in a breath, trying to supress the urge to run. He could feel his palms sweating, couldnât stop thinking about how gross that was, he could smell the ozone in the air, sharp and all encompassing as lightning flashed in the quarry beyond the trailer park, the thunder rumbled in his chest and for a moment he was unsure if that was just his heart. His head was spinning, his knees shaking, eyes stinging, the lightning was closer now, seemingly between his and Eddieâs fingers and-
Holy Shit.
He felt Eddie chuckle against him as they continued to sway. There was no fucking way in the world, Steve was almost convinced he was dreaming. âAre youâŠâ He took a deep shaky breath. âAre you humming ABBA to me right now?â
Eddie didnât respond, continuing the low hum as he stretched his arm out, distancing himself from Steve before pulling him closer again, tucking his arms around his waist. âAnd how could I ever refuse?â His voice was soft, the way old tee shirts were after too many washes. âI feel like I win when I lose.â He pressed a kiss to Steveâs neck, shivers racking up the manâs spine as he breathed the tune like fog on a mirror. âWaterloo. I was defeated, you won the war.â He moved his lips against Steveâs ear, the storm far from him mind. âWaterloo. Promise to love you forever more.â With that, he spun Steve slowly, before pulling him directly to his chest, mouths inches apart, the magnetism pulling them together. Closer and closer, Steveâs heart was pounding and his head felt muddled, the storm raged on around them, seeming like nothing compared to the storm between them, they were soaked at this point, the rain starting somewhere in the middle of their slow waltz. Maybe it was the way his clothes stuck to him, maybe it was that Eddie was sticking to him in a way he craved for so long, but suddenly it was too much. Far too much. With a yelp, he pushed Eddie away, arms clutching around his own shoulders as shivers racked his spine.
He felt so stupid.Â
This was what he was wanting, what he was so desperate for, why couldnât he just let himself be happy, even for a moment? Eddieâs hands on his were warm and gentle, not like any touch he was used to, it was electric and sharp but in the way a lemon was, not the way a knife was. Eddieâs hair was plastered to his cheek, a strand or two in his mouth, his eyes drawn to Steveâs distressed expression. He had to play this off. He had to think! Something! Anything! âSorry that lightning messed with my mind for a second⊠I donât⊠I donât know what just happened.â He kept his hands close to himself. He couldnât tell if his fingers burned from the lack of touch or from too much touch, but he was afraid to find out.Â
Eddie was a very physical guy by nature, but Steve was always far more reserved. Something along the way made Eddie think that Steve hated to be touched, maybe it was something he and Robin shared, so he tried to avoid the hand holding and casual draping of his weight, for fear of pushing too hard too fast. Yet here he was. Eddie was no fool, despite the struggle in school, he could tell there was a correlation between touch and Steve, but maybe he was wrong from the start. Maybe Steve didnât just like touch, maybe he loved it, craved it, and was starved for it.Â
âLetâs head back inside, Dancing Queen.â He wrinkled his nose playfully, avoiding touching Steve while trying to make a plan. âWeâll get pneumonia if weâre out here any longer and I really donât feel like storm chasing anymore.â
***
âHello Lover.â Eddie laughed, opening the bathroom door, steam pouring out behind him. âNow I know that itâll be hard, but try to behave yourself, okay?â With that, he exited the condensation filled room, hair wrapped high in a towel, acne cream dotting on his chin. He smelled like cinnamon toothpaste, a fact further proven by the drip on his dark green tank top. He was wearing gray sweatpants, bottoms raggedy from being too long and walked on over the years. He was far from the bravado that he performed and Steve felt truly honored to be let into his smaller, quieter world.
âI make no promises.â Steve smiled, leaning back on Eddieâs bed, hair wet from his own shower. He was wearing⊠decidedly less clothing. Nothing lewd, the time didnât feel quite right for that yet, but enough that he looked soft and felt smaller. He was swamped in an oversized tee shirt, hanging down to just below his hips, Eddieâs flame boxers peeking out from under the edge. âThe Great And Powerful Eds.â
âPay no attention to the man behind the curtain.â Eddie giggled, tossing himself onto the bed beside Steve, propping his head up on his hand. âWe canât all be perfect.â
âI am definitely not perfect.â Steve stared down at his own fingers, tangled in his shirt.
âI know, no one is Babe.â Eddie reached out gently, brushing a hair from Steveâs face. âBut youâre the closest person I know.â
âYou flatterer you.â Steve let out a small chuckle, but it turned into a gasp as Eddie stroked his cheek. âYouâre too good to me, Munson, I swear youâll be the death of me.â
âLife and death.â Eddie corrected. âSounds like bliss to me.â He snuggled in, laying his head on Steveâs shoulder. He had a theory, one he intended on testing. âSorry movie night was a bust.â
âI had fun either way, I always do with you.â Steve was trying to quiet the beating of his heart, feeling like it could be heard from under floorboards like that tale he read in English years before. He squeezed his eyes shut as Eddie placed a gentle kiss onto his collarbone, a small yelp of surprise slipping out before he could stop it.
âWhy do you always make that sound when I touch you?â Eddie sat up, eyes full of concern.
âI donât know what youâre talking about.â Steve winced, knowing his argument was weak.
âBaby, come on, you know I wonât judge you.â Eddie shifted, turning to fully look at him. âDo you not like it when I touch you?â
âNo! Thatâs not it!â Steve breathed quickly. âOkay it is but it isnât.â
âWh- Steve⊠that doesnât make sense.â Eddie sighed, running a hand through his hair.
âI know!â Steve could feel his energy pulsing, he was getting worked up rather quickly. âI know and itâs stupid. I donât know whatâs wrong with me. I want you to touch me, so fucking badly⊠like constantly⊠but itâs also the most overwhelming feeling in the world.â
âOk, that makes sense.â Eddie held out his hand, eyebrows raised, asking for permission before he settled his hand into Steveâs. âI can work with that.â
âItâs not just youâŠâ Steve sniffled. âMrs. Byers hugged me like a month and a half ago and I thought I was going to combust. Robin or Dustin poke at me and itâs like a static shock. Youâre a goddamn atomic bomb. I donât get it.â
âThereâs not really much to get, Steve.â Eddie leaned in a bit closer, slowly invading Steveâs space as the man grew more comfortable. âPeople need physical affection, our body craves that shit, itâs why babies and little kids have to get held so often. People donât thrive without it.â
âI donât unde- babies?â Steve had a haunted look about him. âLike how old?â
âNewbornâŠâ Eddie narrowed his eyes.
âYeah but like how old can they get before itâs cool to just like⊠not touch them anymore.â
âSteve, love, thereâs not an age for that. People need contact from birth to death. Is there something deeper than that happening? You sound a little stressed.â Eddie knew. He knew but he didnât want to press. It wasnât exactly the worldâs best kept secret.
âMrs. Byers hugged me a month and a half ago.â Steve whispered. âThat was the last time I had a hug. It was so quick too, just a little side hug, nothing extraordinary, just a goodbye on her way out while I was watching the kids⊠but that was more than Iâve had from my own parents in yearsâŠâ
âIâm sorry baby.â Eddie squeezed his hand gently. âReally I am. I feel like a shit boyfriend because I thought you just werenât a touchy person so I was trying to avoid touching you, but thatâs not what you needed and I wish I could go back in time and fix it.â
âNoâŠno thatâs just it though.â Steve sat up, a lightbulb nearly visible as the thoughts began to jump into his head. âJesus if you would have pressed harder about being affectionate, I wouldâve caved but not for me⊠thatâs what I do.â He let out a frustrated groan. âJesus fucking Christ they fucked me up.â
âLove, take a breath.â Eddie hushed him.
âNo because I have been throwing my body at everything for fucking year, Eddie! Years!â His voice cracked. âI thought that if I gave my body to someone else and they were happy, that must mean I am, but I was just trying to trick myself into thinking that it was love or affection and not just a means of getting off. If I throw myself in front of every goddamn monster, every person that tries to hurt someone I love then maybeâŠâ His voice croaked as a sob ripped through him. âMaybe then I could finally fucking earn it. Eddie you didnât do anything wrong, donât you see? By not letting me throw myself at you, you helped me find the answer.â
âWhatâs the answer, Steve?â Eddieâs eyes were wide, he was quietly trying to take in the small breakdown Steve was having, trying to minimize the damage as much as he could, fingers lightly scratching Steveâs back.
âYou love meâŠâ Steve smiled. âYou love me, and so do my friends. You really love me.â
âYeah, Stevie. We really love you.â Eddie felt his heart ache at the thought of Steve doubting it, even for a moment.
âYou love me more in 9 months than my parents have in 20 goddamn years.â Steve laughed, edging on hysteria. As the laughter died down, only a wobbly lip and teary eyes remained. âThey donât love me, Eddie. Why donât they love me?â
âI donât know.â Eddie lifted his chin, wiping away the tears that leaked down Steveâs cheeks. âBut fuck them, and fuck anyone else who doesnât see you the way you deserve to be seen. I know itâs not that simple, but it can be. You never have to see them again, okay? Just say the word and weâll run away from all of that bullshit.â
âIâd like that.â Steve gave him a watery smile. âCan you umâŠâ He hesitated, blush high on his cheeks. âCan you just likeâŠhold me for a little?â It was clear he wasnât used to asking for things for himself.
âSteven Harrington, I would hold you for eternity if you asked me to.â Eddie smirked, theatrics coming out to make Steve smile. He shuffled himself lower, opening his arms up for Steve to wiggle into. It was unbearably hot and the room smelled like weed. The record stopped playing several minutes ago, leaving only the sound of rain pelting the roof to be the soundtrack for their love. It was perfectly imperfect, but hey, thatâs love.

Weekly Tag Wednesday!
Thanks for the tag @mybrainismelted & @deathclassic & @jrooc
And apparently we have @energievie to thank for this week's tag game? đđ„° Hello, precious! Last day of January, indeed.
Name: the sleepy bitch that lives under a bridge
Age: Proud Gen X'er
Location: Ontario, Canada
And now, think about your childhood and tell me:
Did you have a nickname and is it still used? Ugh, yeah. đ¶ It's the Spanish word for tick, because when I was little I could not pronounce my name correctly and it sounded like "chinche." Naturally, everybody started calling me that. My mom still calls me by this name every once in a while when she's trying to be cute. Hashtag mood.
What did you want to be when youâd grow up? A psychologist or a teacher.
Your favourite cartoon: @mybrainismelted I remember The Snorks! Okay, I used to watch so much Saturday morning cartoons that I do not have a favorite. But I do recall Animaniacs fondly.
Your favourite TV show: There used to be this old show called Benson that I used to love.
Your favourite book: Oh my god! Growing up I was all about the Judy Blum and the Jackie Collins . đ And basically now you guys know why my writing goes from family dynamics to pure smut and basically nothing in-between. đ€Šđ»ââïžđ€·đ»ââïž
Your favourite toy: I have a stuffed rabbit that's still with me to this day though I don't use them anymore .
Your favourite thing to eat: I used to be a fiend for fruit pies or Mexican sweet bread.
Your favourite school subject: English. Put me in the room with a bunch of books and I'm a happy person.
How did you spend your summers? Sweltering hot summers sitting on the sidewalk and complaining that there's nothing to do. Those were the best days ever!
Did you listen to music? If yes, did you have a favourite band/artist? I grew up with music all around me. I lived in a smaller apartment complex and there was always music coming out of people's windows. I grew up listening to all kinds of different music so I cannot say that I had one particular band that I loved as my favorite. But I always did. Tend to listen to Prince a lot.
And lastly, tell me something you did as a kid that your parents still donât know about: Oh god that's easy. Playing grab ass with the neighbor kids. đ
Tagging @notherenewjersey & @stillbeatingheart bc these are funny questions, with absolutely no pressure to play. đđ„°

Spy Kids: Armageddon second trailer!!
New trailer already?
Not that I'm complaining.
So I just watched the next Spy Kids: Armageddon trailer, which also looks good! I do have a worry or two though.
I also recorded my first time reaction via OBS, and recorded the screen this time, and it still won't let me upload to Tumblr.. just wasn't meant to be, I guess. So once again we're doing an analysis post instead. The trailer's a little longer though, so this post is gonna be longer too.
If you're curious about my thoughts on the teaser trailer, you can check it out here!
I forgot to mention last time (mostly bc I wanted to know if it was true or not) that the new siblings' names are Patty and Tony, and their parents are Nora and Terrence.
Rodriguez once again continues the tradition of naming the main characters after his family, though this time he named a character after himself! Kinda. Patty is named after his sister Patricia Vonne, and Tony is named after his middle name Anthony, and he went by Tony a lot as a kid.[source]
So first thing we see is Tony attempting to play a game without getting caught. That worries me. Why are games off-limits? That does not always go well.
Ayy, a Switch Lite! :D
Also this game looks like it could be an MMO.
Armageddon code? OK, so we're doing something different with the "Armageddon" naming this time compared to the Armageddon Device.
Why are there see-through safes for the Switch Lites?? Even the parents have one! Should I be worried??
When your parents say your full first name and not your nickname, that's how you know you're in trouble.
Ha! đ
OK that was pretty funny.
Yeah, something tells me Patty and Tony are gonna be like the Gumball and Anais of Spy Kids.
Wait, the power is going off now? Is the Armageddon Code the Transmooker all of a sudden??
That is literally what happens in Spy Kids 2! Or at least in its novelisation.
Yeaaahh, these two definitely didn't help cause the problem, noooo no no, why would you suspect them? đ€
Oooohh, is that what these guys are? They're video game enemies! OK, that makes sense. Yeah, I knew the video game aspect had to come in at some point.
So in this film, instead of the parents going away and getting captured and an uncle figure sending the kids away or an AI leading them away, the parents send the kids away themselves and get captured in the process. It does explain one of the promotional film stills.
Yeah, doesn't look like there's gonna be a new uncle or aunt figure this time. Or maybe there will be? I could be wrong.
OK, so they're going with a different sort of surrealism this time, especially with the jail cell. In the first film, one of the inspirations for the first film's wacky, whimsical surrealism of Floop's castle was Antoni GaudĂ.[source] This time they went with more geometric surrealism.
Oh shoot, this is a safe house!! Awesome!! đ
Doesn't look as cozy as the original safe house though. Sorry to say.
OOOOOH, A TRAINING COURSE!!
Did we ever see a training course in the original films? I mean, the Cortez family have a workout room that I guess counts as a training course (it was used to get the kids ready for when a time like the events of Spy Kids happens). Spy Kids: Mission Critical is when we've actually seen a training course by the OSS for spies. It's really cool to see a training course the Spy Kids can train on yet again!
Also, I like your enthusiasm, Tony! X)
Better than the "I'm gonna be a better spy than my step-mother!" remark last film.
The tradition of the main boy character getting hit by stupid things continues!
"Spy Suit Generator"? XD
Ha! I like that, actually! Brings another new thing to the series. It also explains the fog.
Though are we still getting those "let's suit up" montages?
OK so, the plane is also a boat (or is it a seaplane?), but it's separate from the car, maybe. Gotcha.
I love that it still looks like a toy, not unlike the RX Express plane.
"Magna Boots"? Ooo~. Is that what the name of these shoes are.
Very on the nose!
Wow, the trailer's showing the kids freeing their parents, way to spoil the whole movie! /j
Nah, this is a family movie, of course they're gonna free their parents, what did you expect?
Besides, the trailers for Spy Kids 1 also showed the kids freeing their parents. Kinda (it's actually two completely different scenes edited together to look like a rescue). So it's not that big of a deal than, say, the Ruby Gillman: Teenage Krakken trailers that did spoil everything (seriously, just let the creators put together trailers for their own movie! Rodriguez did!)
Don't worry, I don't blame you for experiencing VR, it can make people nauseous. /hj
This is new.
But also, see, Spy Kids 3? You can have the entire family in a video game without capturing or "elsewhere"ing them or reduce them to cameos! /hj
Oooohhh, myyyy Gooood!! This is a beautiful shot! đ
And here we have the main villain, Rey "The King" Kingston!
Now what are you gonna be like, my guy? Definitely note-taking from the Toymaker, I see.
SURPRISE!
đ”Sail away, sail away, sail awayđ”
Whoa! The skeletons were moving in a stop-motion-like manner, ala Jason and the Argonauts!
That's a neat reference to both that and Spy Kids 2. Animating technology sure has improved.
What a way to end the trailer, huh?
"Only on Netflix September 22nd"
Oh frick, the movie is in 11 days already??
Sheesh, that was quick, I better mark my calendar!
So once again, this trailer has gotten a very contentious response from people. For me, I'm still excited to see this when it comes out! (though I may or may not watch it outside of Netflix, cough)
My hopes from my previous post seem to be holding up:
- They seem to be getting creative with the gadgets again!
- No title puns or fart jokes were said at all in the trailer, so far, so we may still be safe.
- Tony and Patty's chemistry is pretty funny so far, reminding me of Gumball and Darwin's chemistry with Anais (from The Amazing World of Gumball).
- The villain and the enemies look fun. Can't wait to see what they bring!
- The parents seem fun so far, even if I would've preferred other actors to portray Nora and Terrence than.. the actors that we got instead..
What are your thoughts on the trailer and hopes for Spy Kids: Armageddon? Once again, please let me know! ^^

vent post so tw for literally everything
***
my mom is always saying something to the effect of âwell your childhood was better than mine because YOUR dad didnât hit youâ or âat least you werenât scared you dad was gonna kill youâ etc because she had a very abusive father, and it pisses me off because sheâll use that as an excuse to downplay ANYTHING iâm venting to her about from MY dad during MY childhood while also currently staying in contact with her abusive father and DEFENDING him when i tell her heâs a piece of shit and deserves a painful death.
iâve told her multiple times that my first memories were my parents screaming at each other, dad throwing things, slamming doors, dad road-raging with his whole family in the car and nearly crashing on multiple occasions, getting yelled at, slapped, beat with a spoon until i welted (not bc i disobeyed, but bc i annoyed my dad), and my dad even chased me down the hallway and put his fist through the door i closed/locked so he couldnât get to me (and they still shame me for needing to replace the door like itâs my fault). my dad would constantly pretend to throw things at me and my sisters as a âjokeâ, including but not limited to knives, scissors, pens, and baseball bats.i still have a vivid memory from when i was 4/5 and my parents were yelling, and i found them in the master bath with my mom cowering into the back wall sobbing in the dark and my dad trying to comfort her and apologize because he chased her in there in a rage.
but oh yeah, i didnât fear for my life AT ALL during my childhood. i donât have ANY crippling anxiety or chronic depression, i donât flinch at the dumbest little things, i donât get heart palpitations hearing my dadâs fucking voice or a door getting shut too hard by accident. i donât stay in my room all day to avoid my parents because being around them and hearing them makes me feel unsafe still. yeah, no lasting affects at all. /s
there was a while where my dad was exhibiting some of that behavior and it came to a breaking point where my mom finally told him that we (my sister & i) were afraid of him. thereâd been something spilled and then left on the stove and we KNEW it was his mess so we werenât going to clean it up and my mom huffed off to go tell him and complain about it, and he immediately got up and started stomping to the kitchen and my mom told him not to because he scared us like her dad scared her, and of course all he did was one of those âhow dare you call me what i amâ guilt trips, and my little sister was visibly shaking so i shoved her in my room and locked the door. she was sobbing uncontrollably and shaking and i stood by the door to make sure they werenât going to come in. when they finally came to the door i only opened it enough to see them and my dad looked defeated but still pissed and my mom was worried about my sister, and i actually yelled at him. i asked if he was proud of his behavior and how he treated us over a fucking stove, because thatâs all it was, and if it was worth it because my sister was a mess. he cried. i let my mom in with the permission of my sister but i stayed by the door while he was there. that was in 2021.
what do you MEAN âmy childhoodâ? itâs happening to me RIGHT NOW.

Anthony is still doing his Best Man DutiesâąïžÂ i see. also Elias complaining as if heâs doing all the work sksks i love these two so much. but also, Elias should be the one turning down some too so he can practice until he has his own daughter. Anthony is now ahead of him in that department so keep up my dude. aww Aunt Lav being a protective big sister this is too cute. âIf he can quarrel, heâs feeling better.â LMAO thatâs one way to look at it i guess.
oh god not Miriamâs invitation. not them fighting over a piece paper LMAO children i tell you. also i can see what youâre doing there Anthony. heâs trying to rile her up bc i bet he finds it adorable when sheâs a lil irritated.Â
âI mean, what kind I would use if I were getting married, but Iâm not. Iâm becoming a spinster.â // âNo one in this room believes that.â No one in the whole world believes it. i mean hell, even Cherie herself doesnât believe it since sheâs still daydreaming about the paper she will use for the invitation lmao.
âDonât worry, Anthony has that covered.â ah. thatâs what best manâs are for, of course. The Chaos of AnthoniasâąïžÂ will always make me smile like i love these two idiots so much. ANTHONY YOU SIMP. willing to use her excuse to ward off suitors bc itâs what she wants. âŠ.a convent with jewelry and gowns. yeah, sure, thatâs more believable than her becoming a spinster, i suppose.
sigh, iâm glad Elias and Cherie are slowly talking about it. like it feels nice thatâs sheâs able to reassure him and vice versa bc they are close after all. just showing him different perspective without invalidating his feelings. this is just so sweet honestly. and iâm glad Cherie is adamant on squashing the doubts in his head. oh god them recalling the good memories when Elias came to visit. and reassuring him that Cassie did love him so much and UGH I JUST WANT THIS FAMILY TO BE HAPPY DAMMIT. but honestly, this moment between them just warmed my heart.
sheâs throwing Elias to the sharks right away help sksksks like father like daughter huh? like the second Percy announced Cherie as his daughter he said Elias, Deal With ItâąïžÂ sksksks âYou traitorâŠâ LMAO. i can just picture Elias scrambling to find Anthony once Cherie left bc he is his number 1 suitor repellent. âHello a bunch of men who will help me.â i love how she already has people to fill up her dance card lmao. also, Anthony being a step ahead like, if he can write his name on her dance card ten times he would. and of course, we always love to see Jealous!AnthonyâąïžÂ in this house.
Kenneth with the rivalry pls heâs so real for that like. bc they canât have Cherie theyâre going to want her even more. itâs just this whole battle of who can âout manâ who so if anything, it just makes things more difficult to know who has the best intentions. i mean we of course only know The OneâąïžÂ but sheâs still denying it so lol. omg she really she needs to stop this whole spinster thing lmao not even the frickin tiles on the dance floor believes her. Hugh not falling in love easily tho. i can tell itâs bc of what he saw with his parents so heâs more guarded and logical in that regard. ACTIVITIES!!! HUGH YOU (w)HOREâąïžÂ good for you king!! GOOD FOR YOU!! âGod no.â talking about feelings during ActivitiesâąïžÂ ??? yeah thatâs a big no no in the Friends With Benefits UniverseâąïžÂ Cherie iâm sorry. people think sheâs insistent for âsome reasonâ everyone then just pops out of nowhere with a whole list of things sheâs been insistent about sksks.
*me gagging, heaving, choking* Miriam. she still hasnât learned how? like iâm sure Cherie can make her life in the ton miserable especially with her officially as the dukeâs daugther now. âHow wonderful.â even i can feel how enthusiastic Cherie is when she said that skskskkskks. UGH. sheâs spewing nonsense omg. she doesnât know that the people sheâs dancing with knowswho sheâs going to marry already? of course she doesnât bc sheâs stupid to see whatâs in front of her. Oh god why is Pierre back, i thought he was back in Paris? honestly, the more Miriam keeps talking the more i want to shove a shoe down her throat. honestly, Cherie should do that with her pearls. aggressive iâm sorry but she;s just being annoying. GOOOOOD how i baaaadly wished Cherie would just say something about the truth about her husband to be. gentleman my ass. iâd like to hear from you once you find out about the mistresses and the countless debts.  âI would be more terrified if I were marrying a man whom I know deep down doesnât love me, or a man whom I do not love.â YES YOU SAY IT.
wait, what were Cece and Anthony discussing? i bet itâs Anthony itching to propose again and Cece is just smack his hands sksks. oh pls Anthony reassuring her though. and giving her an example as to why itâs not a big deal to calm her a lil. so cute these two. Anthony smirking bc he KNOWS sheâs a lil jealous. she calls it curiosity but all i hear is jealousy. HE WOULD NEVER LEAVE HER UNSATISFIED !!!! he needs to stop throwing these phrases with underlying meanings bc itâs not good for my heart. sheâs so confused tho bless her ssksksks. i wonder how sheâll react once she knows about the Marital AffairsâąïžÂ and sheâs going to look back at all their interactions and her questions sksks i bet sheâd be so embarrassed.
PROTECTIVE!ANTHONY MY BELOVED <3 i donât condone violence but yes Anthony, go wipe that mustache off PlanktonsâąïžÂ face. i hope it wonât be something incredibly stupid tho but he did have no right to talk about that. i mean, it is private. ALSO ANTHONY DONâT MISS THE DANCE PLS. honestly, she shouldnât change her mind. iâm sure Aunt Lavinia can spill some tips and tricks on How To Get Away With MurderâąïžÂ and i mean, Miriam wonât be missed sksksksk. amazing as always honestly, iâm glad we got to have that moment with the siblings. and of course always happy to see Anthony being such a huge simp for Cherie. heâs now a man whoâs deeply in love. Character DevelopmentâąïžÂ we love to is <3
â TM Anonâąïž
Omg darliiiing! â€
Lolll I donât think his best man duties will ever stop đ And Anthony is slowly becoming an expert on turning suitors down on Cherieâs behalf đ
also i can see what youâre doing there Anthony. heâs trying to rile her up bc i bet he finds it adorable when sheâs a lil irritated. OMG EXACTLYYYY! đ†I love this idea so much! đ
Cherie keeps saying that she will become a spinster but like, she totally doesnât believe it deep down đ
The Chaos of Anthoniasâą They are so chaotic! đ And I think it will get even worse when they become brothers-in-lawđ Like, subtle but chaotic đ
Elias and Cherie needed that conversation for sure! †I think they are (mostly Cherie is) slowly starting to understand there are so many things they didnât know about their parentsâ marriage and their parents as people, if that makes sense †And the only people who can understand that are each other, so I think it will get them closer â€
number 1 suitor repellent I AM SCREAMING AT THIS! đ
Jealous Anthony is so much funđ
The competition yessssss! đ I think up until Cherie gets engaged, those suitors will be annoying her (and annoying Anthony) đ
Tiles on the dance floor omg đ
HUGH YOU (w)HOREâąÂ good for you king!! THIS IS HILARIOUSđ
Oh yeah but unfortunately, Miriam can make her life miserable as well, seeing that she is soon to be married and Cherie isnât đ Married ladies were respected more than unmarried ones back then in the Regency era and Miriam is planning to use that a lot đ
SO WAIT WAIT-
Do we think Miriam knows about the mistress yet or? đ
Yessss that was exactly what they were discussing đ Like, I think Anthony is getting very impatient and restless and Cecily is like âNOT YETâ đ
i wonder how sheâll react once she knows about the Marital AffairsâąÂ and sheâs going to look back at all their interactions and her questions sksks i bet sheâd be so embarrassed. WAIT THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN! Cherie would literally be lying in bed and all of a sudden she would it would flash in her mind, and she would sit up and go like âWait a minuteâŠâ đ
I think we will see more of Protective!Anthony and it will be so much fuuuun! đ
More in love scenes are comiiing đ Character development my beloved đ
Honeeeey youâre amazing, thank you so much for this! †ILY! â€

arc v 66-80 thoughts! oh my God So Much Happens All The Time. we got to the fourth opening/ed already??? im halfway into the series I think and im shocked by the implications of the op/ed (that we'll seemingly be spending another full arc in synchro. not complaining I just thought this would be shorter, at this rate most of the series will be taking place in synchro wont it?? whats the synchro to standard episode ratio...)
-aaaah crows kids showed up to watch him duel and it had him worried for the majority of the duel. cute. (also I hope theyve been ok since hes been in jail/here at the friendship cup locked in a fucking room) im glad he wonâŠ
-âŠ.and concerned bc Crime Dad broke into yuyas room to tell him the losers (and also ppl who get taken from the prison) go to some kind of underground garbage plant to basically be WORKED TO DEATH. see when a few eps ago we learned some ppl get taken out of prison and never return I assumed they just were. shooting them to kill them out back like ole yeller bc of overpopulation. nope! cant decide if this is better or worse than that assumption⊠both are pretty badâŠ
-how tf is layra supposed to do a riding duel!! theyre so tiny! where will their emotional support stuffed animal sit! tf! im glad yuya and crimedad are treating this as awful as it is and are also pissed. what the FUCK and god layra RUNNING to yuya and clinging to him and yuya tearing into reiji saying 'if YOU wont protect layra /I/ will!' LIKE. LOVE THIS ENERGY YUYA. I feel like reiji is 100% withholding info about layra but still. kid is TERRIFIED and yuya had SO many valid points (layra still wanting to be with big bro reiji and trusting him auugh)
-reiji is a bit Too Calm abt all of this so I cant imagine this is his first time handling this kinda situation. and layra having a goddamn meltdown panic attack when reiji leaves and running after him BEGGING him not to leave and saying 'ill do whatever u want!! always!!!' I DONT LIKE THIS. NOT ONE BIT. at least reiji was like 'its okay. im proud and happy youre defying me bc it means ur developing a will of your own' and having ninjaguy fight in layras placeâŠlike. very many feelings abt this. I still can't fault reiji 100% either bc we Learn layra is from a 'war torn region in a certain country' I KNEWWW IT I KNEW LAYRA WAS ADOPTED the timeline with reijis dad going to academia didnt make sense for reiji to have a younger sibling. my original theory was xyz dimension but it didnt look like heartland in the little bit we could see. so just some random war-torn countryâŠum. so they have ptsd. and reijis mom is like 'yeah hes got no will so he can be a useful asset to us!" throw the whole woman away. tf is wrong with u ppl. at least reiji is defying his mom on this and wanting layra to be happy⊠ohâŠreiji im so sorry sweetie both u and layra have such shit parentsâŠ.maybe its actually for the best reiji took layra with him, i would not fucking trust his mom with this kid! reiji is just Cleaning up his Parents messes. actually that perfectly explains his Hyper Responsible personality. he prob never got to be a kidâŠ.IM SO SAD. AAUGH! ygo is nothing w/out family drama
-âŠyuya getting mad reiji sent ninjaguy in layras place but dude SOMEONE wouldve had to go if not him?? what do u want reiji to DO yuya hes working with what he can and hes prob 10 steps ahead anyway
-yooo shinji is fun actually, I feel like him and shun would get along great. both freedom fighters. shinji trying to start a RIOT with his duel. love that. (also just love ninjaguy too. i didnt love either enough to root for one or the other, im fine w/ whoever wins but shinji had a CAUSE yk)
-so reiji is fine w them being sent to the forced labor place. I mean. all of them but the top winner WILL be so ofc he had a plan to get them out of that. not at all surprised bc hes been THEE best at planning and staying cool as a cucumber. not even worried abt it if hes in charge. if reijis not worrying neither am I
-smile chojiro is a great character. i love his whole motto 'dont be ashamed of defeat, dont be complacent in victory' im also glad he didnt just throw the duel to keep yuzu from going to the forced labor camp (I meanâŠ/i/ would have if I was fighting a 14 yr old girl kajhfkj gotta protecc the kids or whatever) but that wouldve cheapened her win. I KNEW she would win and im so proud of her. yuya tearing up when she used his catch phrase to let him know shes ok ;__; god that duel made me SO emotional theyre both great
-I knew serena would win fast against some rando named 'tony' with the blandest design ever. did not disappoint. but the other characters made comments like 'oh if I wasnt dueling today I coulve slept in'âŠtheyre only doing like FOUR DUELS PER DAY IN THIS TOURNAMENT?? PEOPLE GO TO A STADIUM TO SEE (4) DUELS???! oh my god thats so ridiculous. how much is a ticket in???âŠhow long have they been in synchro dimension??? like, they were in jail a While too werent they?? so like. a MONTH?? LONGER?? everyone is gonna be so behind on school when they get back. yes thats what im worried abt.
-yuya getting mad this is all unfair and yelling its wrong and the 'friendship cup' should be canceled bc the losers just get sent to the forced work facility (slave camp. yuya, just say it for what it is) is like..well whatre you gonna do abt it! we already had a lil speech abt how the 1% of this world are living it up and the 99% are in slums, having to clean up the MASSIVE waste the 1% cause and having to struggle to SURVIVE and your only NOW getting really pissed abt it? (also, too real) you HAVE a pocket demon we havent seen in like 30-40 episodesâŠbring it out and let it eat the rich people and the cops! whats the problem!
-OH MY GOD. jack atlas and reiji and layra hanging out having dinner together. i am going to lose my mind. HE THINKS YUZU HAD THE MOST PROMISE OUT OF ALL THE DAY ONE DUELISTS TOO!!!! BRO. JACK. JACK U ARE THE BESTEST EVER!!! SAME HAT!!!!!! also the fact no one else is Eating but layra has a full course is so funny jsdkj whyre they all just having tea? did they finish before them orâŠ
-god damn jack is differentâŠhe seems more mature? he called the commons his origin and his pride and is super observant of layra and says he wishes he couldve seen them duel and. tbh thats cute and probably smth layra needed to hear (I am still FIrmly against letting this child on a motorcycle tho) jack. jack i love u
-god the card jack got inspired by was the one he gave to sam who was UNGRATEFUL FOR IT. i cant believe this. this jack is SO nice i love him so much
-tf why is the crowd cheering a cop on a bike and booing yuya. yuya im SO sorry for these dumbasses. /I/ am cheering for u. AND HES TELLING THE CROWD ABT THE LABOR CAMPS!!! HEY YUYA I LOVE YOU SPEAK THE TRUTH. im sorry the crowd isâŠLike That! theyre all CHEERING like 'HELL YA WE LOVE WHEN THE LOSERS GET SENT TO WORK CAMPS TO DIE!!' WHAT THE FUCK!!! jack is like 'dude they only care about WINNERS opinions' HAHA speaking from experience aren't u jack. hes kinda right tho. WIN and THEN make ur speech. its all about TIMING unfortunately
-hey the cop has a fusion card. WHERE did he get that? reiji says a rat is in and my first thought was dennis, but hes been locked in his room too, right? (and lets be real I dont see fucking DENNIS as a real threat. nor do I see a random literally characterless faceless cop as a threat, but its the implication a fusion person snuck in synchro and is sabotaging our Heroes)
-yuya's eyes lit up for like 0.2 second. I wish I could tell if that was yuto's influence or yuyas demon (?? I need a better name for it. but we havent SEEN it in like. 30-40 episodes LMAO let alone had any kind of explanation, so) I geeeeeet that sending ANYONE to the horrible forced labor camps is bad, but yuya. you gotta get to the top if you want ppl to listen. you cant single handedly do much, you are 14. 'bc of me he was sent underground' if it wasnt him itd be u. and its not like u took him there urself, chill yuya. we'll fix this stuff im SURE
-oh my god shingo v yugo is happening. I am SHAKING. the SILLYBOYS. I want them to interact MORE. I figured yugo would win (since im sure we'll get a yuya v yuto match based on the opâŠ) but shingo put up a GOOD FIGHT and put on a good show and im proud
-âŠyuya seems to be able to directly tap into yugo's thoughts when their dragons are like resonating and seemed to be losing his sense of self. concerning? we havent really seen serena or yuzu do smth like this so im like. is it rly Just smth abt the yuya counterparts?? very unsettling scene. yuya has SOME level of influence too bc yugo said yuyas lil fun catchphrase (smth both yuzu and shingo caughtâŠ) âŠis that why yuya kinda absorbed yuto ?? bc hes like. the Alpha Counterpart or smth. ?? horror movie stuff!
-sergey is the scariest man ive ever seen. christ. he 'died' once before and can CONTROL MINDS?? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT.
-omg ninjaguy snuck into 'hell' to make sure everyone is ok. is THAT reijis plan? just rely on ur personal ninja to do everything? ok tbf if /i/ had a personal ninja Id Do The Same Damn Thing. im sure eventually hes gonna use him to get them outâŠthe way I believe in themâŠ
-theres a rumor roget is from another dimension so he def is. like working with leo? not at all surprised. hes def getting the duelists from hell from gallagar to send to fight in the fusion v xyz war is my assumption
-STOPPP LAYRA PLAYING JACKS WORDS IN THEIR MIND TO INSPIRE THEM AND APOLOGIZING TO NINJAGUY WAS SO CUTE.
-yuyas letter to yuzu was also Cute
-god why does shun keep having to duel Secretly Fusion ppl this sucks for him LMAO. not that I think Fucking Dennis can beat shun but STILL. at least shun is like 'no hes def bullshitting' like hes a smart cookie.
-âŠwhat the hell are they going to do if dennis DOES show his true colors btw? theyre all kinda stranded in another dimension rn. are they just gonna let him go to the underground plant and not get him out too?? jkhfksdf omg I CANNOT see reiji doing that. i feel like dennis is enough of a weenie we can bully him into switching sides. the tension between shun and dennis thoâŠpreddy thick. pretty spicy
-Oh! hes got ancient gear cards! didnt the prof from gx use those? that tracks. fun callback
-reiji not even PHASED by dennis being academia hes like. and? and bitch? you got smth to say? to the council. LMAO I LOVE him no bullshit with him ever
-oh HELL no dennis was the one who STARTED THE ATTACK ON HEARTLAND (that he calls the hunting game) BECAUSE HE FOUND RURI??? 'i wanted to keep doing street shows' WELL YOU SHOULDVE.
-omg ruri's design is SO cute. shes got feather motifs! does she also have a birdy deck like her bro! thats cute! I hope so!
-SORA IS HERE??? HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN HERE??? HIIII WELCOME BACK !!!!! BEST SURPRISE
-dennis being like 'now that ive cast aside being an entertainer, even the action cards have forsaken me?!" noâŠno bud its prob bc YOU caused debris all over the field. so still kinda your own damn fault which is funny to watch
-SHUN SNIPED DENNIS FROM SPACE. BEST FINISH TO A DUEL EVER. EVER EVER EVER XYZ REPRESENT YES SHUN YES!!!!! he was aggressively trying to turn him into a card and when that didnt work (reiji modified his duel disk lmao) HE TRIED PUNCHING HIM AND GOT PULLED AWAY. WAS HE GOING TO BEAT HIM TO DEATH THE OLD FASHIONED WAY??? SHUN. PLEASE. i love u.
-waaait is 76 just a recap ep. booooooo ive been binging these i dont NEED a recap. I JUST watched them all in a row like a maniac. im watching this ep on 2x speed to make it go Faster. smh. I do kind of appreciate a streamlined explanation of why the council ppl kept roget around even knowing hes a snake but Still.
-oh, its also interesting yuris job seems to be taking the yuzu-counterparts? do him and serena know each other? i dont THINK weve seen them interact but idk! since all of the yuzus and yuyas seem to be friends its just interesting hed be chosen for that job
-ok only the first half or so was a recap? cool. slowin it back to normal then...
-âŠwhat the fuck is kings gambit. he put MIND CONTROL CHIPS IN ALL THE COPS BRAINS? HOW? Roget is going against academia for his own purposes. reiji immediately calls him out on his bullshit invitation to help. fucking love you reiji
-sora got dennis hahah. how do sora and dennis not Know each other. it was weirdly nice of sora to help dennis and sora is like. Determined to get serena and yuzu. but. We Will See about that. I feel like serena is just gonna pummel him into a pancake and yuzu will give him a smack with her fan and a tight hug and he will break down like a little nervous chihuahua. this is my prediction.
-new op and ed this ep too btw! LOVEEE the new op, prob my 2nd fav next to the first one. really good soft metal sound. new ed is also REALLY GOOD. awww all the girls together!! and even. sora and jack next to each other. god last ed was my fav but this one is FIGHTING it I cant pick which I like better LMAO theyre REALLy good. interesting imagery too. MAYBE im reading too much into it but jack and sora are both on the outskirts of the grassâŠare they going to interact? and sora is sorta balled into himself and turned away from everyone else, but he very much still IS with them in the grass. makes u thinkâŠ.
-also the ed has yuri in it and ruri and rin finally. theyre also hanging out and being cute. when will yuri and the girls join the gang. we can all be friends :3 even if ur a lil squirrely evil guy its ok!
-âŠalso shingo blushing and looking at serena. WHAT. have we gotten any inkling of a crush on her from him?? we havent right??? like HUH? she does punch him in her sleep which is so funny KJHADKJF but like. theyd be the funniest couple ever im wheezing
-yeah ok this is my favorite ed so far. its so goddamn cute theyre all just RELAXING TOGETHER BEING ADORABLE. sleeping baby layra and reiji sleeping in his glasses like a nerd sold me.
-I'm around the halfway point of the series I think! thats fun! âŠnone of my big questions have been answered in any substantial way yet hahah. I'm hoping the next arc..we get to see yuri more finally (and for yuto to make a comeback, which. obv he must before the series endsâŠ) and also I want to see ruri and rin more!!! and more lancer interactions in general I want them to hang out and be budsâŠI know the whole plot is stopping an inter-dimensional war which does fuck severely but I just. dunno. some slice of life eps would be nice after this arcâŠeverything has been go go go fast heavy for a while and i need. a breather (that isnt a recap..)
-something I realized about Character designs (im in the middle of doing fanart while watching haha) Yuya's dad is dressed like a ringleader. yuya is clown-coded (aka part of the ringleaders circus). yuyas dad disappeared. soâŠwould it be insane to assume he might be Behind stuff, like a plot twist villain? I know hes at least INVOLVED SOMEHOW (he gave yuya his pendulum necklace too didnt heâŠmuch to think abt) âŠ.hmâŠ. also! fun thing I didnt notice until now is yuya is color matched with his odd eyes isnt he? both are red/green? thats so fun
-yuzu v sergey was a big pile of bullshit. she didnt deserve to lose the first match of the 2nd round. I saw it coming and it still pissed me off. i wanted her to WIN, or at least get to the finals! generally just really annoyed over it. fuck you sergey and fuck you to the ppl who wrote it like that
-yuya v shinji (who I cant help but think of as a k-mart generic brand yusei from the neurotypical section instead of my Beloved Brand Name Yusei from the Autism section) was Tough. yuya is trying to fight for an interdimensional war (âŠhis goal of making everyone smile pushed aside for the momentâŠwhich is like. fair. rn dueling is a tool of WAR or REVOLUTION we cant do those with smiles usuallyâŠ) but shinji is trying to start a revolution against the upper classâŠneither of them are WRONG and it sucks but yuya as the main character Couldnt Lose. And the stunt Roget pulled after sucked for everyone :< ...cant believe crow actually believed it tho god. I know its for plot reasons but imo hes smarter than that..
-I will say im SO glad sora is back. omg hiii sora :D he 1. saved yuzu 2. WENT TO MAKE SURE YUYA KNEW YUZU WAS OK??? so fucking good Im so Glad. (also bonus points to ME for calling this happening. sora NEVER had any ill will towards the two of them, i KNEW he was attached to them) hes gonna join up soon isnt he :3c i KNEW it. <- pleased I called this (tbf I thought itd happen way later but who knows if its actually happening now or if yuyas just planting seeds of doubt in his brain. sora already is calling academia a hell so. he just needs a gentle lil shove in the right direction...also I want to see him and shun make up an be buds. that might be asking too much tho...shun doesnt owe him forgiveness but...it would b CUTE)
-then him and yuya just sit and talk about itâŠsora admits theyre his first real friends I AM LIVING RN. BEST BEST TROPE EVER. HE HAD SUCH A HARD LIFE TOO FUCK U ACADEMIA. he SCOURED academia and even checked standard to find yuzuâŠso sweet⊠his big plan was to let yuya let him take serena back home instead of yuzu and thats like. even IF yuya was that heartless (which hes obv notâŠ) and they did that, its a band-aid solution bc dennis will prob report yuzu⊠ergh.
-yuya said he TRUSTS SORA TO KEEP YUZU SAFE. IF HE CANT HES GONNA FEEL LIKE SHIT. HES /GOTTA/ SWITCH SIDES NOW JKDHAKFJ
-they then hype yuri up more like 'ohhh its only a matter of time before they send him!' PROMISE, ROGET?? I WANT TO SEE MORE OF HIM. ITS LIKE. EPISODE 80 AS I TYPE THISâŠ.I THINK WE'VE GOTTEN LIKE. 1-2 MINUTES OF SCREENTIME FOR HIM EVER.
-BY THE WAY. sora is a goddamn parkour master, jumping around on buildings and stuff my god. I know he was trained and stuff by academia whcih we saw a bit of in a flashback montageâŠbut its lichrally insane. anime parkour
-oh my god crow v shun is next. why do birds have to fightâŠ.. sad! my prediction is crow wins just bc shun doesnt have any real personal stakes rn...I mean sure the lancers are trying to prove their might or w/e but on a personal level shun has no beef w crow or synchro yk. whereas for crow hes got beef w jack (and now yuya possibly due to the shit roget did lol) so. obv feels like crow will win for meta reasons. same w/ whoever serena ends up dueling later, but we'll see!
anyway. look at them. :)

currently listening to: slipping through my fingers by meryl Streep and amanda seyfried
i was just laying in bed and giggling bc of one of my favorite childhood memories. i was thinking about how europeans get dressed to go everywhere, or at least that's what people say. there's never any going places in your jammies or something. in the us, it's not like that. people go to walmart in just a undershirt and shorts, or like sweats and a sports bra sometimes.
my dad isn't european. he's from zambia, but he spent a good bit of his childhood in england. so when we were little, my dad used to make us get fully dressed everywhere we went. nice clothes, hair done, shoes, etc. didn't matter what time of day or night it was or where we were going, we were always dressed nicely.
i remember one time when I was five or six, my dad comes to our rooms and he goes, "guys come on" and it's like midnight. we're all in our beds, in our jammies, half asleep.
so we're all groggy and we're all like okay okay gimme a sec to get dressed. and he goes no, stop. just get into the car, we're going to McDonalds.
and i just remember all of us looking at each other, eyes wide and then at the same time, we scream "IN OUR PAJAMAS?!" in horror and excitement
and my dad just nods super excited and grinning, so we race down the stairs to the truck and everyone climbs in
and he drives us to mcdonalds, grabs us all happy meals and mcflurries, and takes us home!!!!
i just remember being so excited about this as a child đđđđđ the fact that i remember it all so clearly is really funny to me bc it really shows how serious my dad's rule about making sure we were ALWAYS dressed nicely no matter what was (as in i played in the woods dressed in the kinds of dresses you wore to church) because it is a CORE memory for me đâthe memory makes me so unbelievably happy every time bc i just feel the same giddy and excited feeling i felt as a child being able to flout such an important rule in our household!
This is kind of an idea of the stuff I wore at that age
I also wore normal clothes, but I was very princessy as a child. So, until the age of seven, I didn't wear pants. I flatly refused to. I played in the woods in these types of dresses and little church shoes or dress up heels.
when I was seven, my mom tried to get me to wear jeans and i kid you not, i ran to my room and cried my eyes out over the fact that she was forcing me to wear jeans. The jeans in question looked like these
Except they were pink and purple butterflies and it was way more bedazzled than that with a lot more swirls around the butterflies. And the jeans themselves were a lighter wash.
My mom begged me to put them on and so I tried them on begrudgingly, and was like oh my god. I remember checking myself out in the mirror đâ I was like okay maybe jeans aren't so bad
So yeah, I was very hyper feminine as a child. I still am đ my dad also had an old Macy's card from the 80s from when they first started their rewards program. When they shut down their original one, my dad was grandfathered in. As a result, he has a million discounts there. So, I grew up wearing extremely nice clothes only from that store because my dad could get so many discounts on it, it was like Walmart prices.
My family thought I was overly spoiled for this, but they didn't know that all my clothes came from that one store and we're bought for under like $50 (like not just one article of clothing, I mean we could grab a pile of clothes that were worth hundreds and then get so many discounts, it went down to like $50) most of the time.
That meant that any clothes I wanted anywhere else just were not an option. I could only buy clothes at Macy's because it was our cheapest option. Nothing from Justice or Claire's, nothing from Aeropostale or Hollister or anything.
Definitely not complaining but just wanted to be clear I'm not bragging about how rich we were đ my parents could just be really good at getting a bang for their buck.

so anyway we were all bullied by our own (adult) family for showing ND traits right? obviously we were bullied in school bc 1. kids are cruel and 2. parents can teach their kids to be ableist but. yeah. itâs definitely something else when itâs grown ass adults mocking you for things they should know better than to mock a fuckin child for. plus they should have some semblance of knowledge of, yâknow. mental illnesses and disorders and shit. do yâall have any stories?

bestie consider poly billy n stu with an s/o who makes snuff films but like they just found the vids hidden away while their s/o was out I JUST NEED TO GET THIS OUT OF MY BRAIN
,Ooooooh~ Love, love, love this idea. Dark!Readers are always loved and welcome. So implied Modern AU.
TW: Homicide. Torture. Dark!Reader.
poly!Ghostface w/ Reader who does snuff:
---
So if you make snuff, it can be assumed you don't have a problem with their darker proclivities.
As a matter of fact, that was how you guys got into the relationship in the first place.
You started as friends, slowly getting integrated into their college friend group. But your darker sense of humor, love of splatter films, and generally chill demeanor when it came to squickier stuff quickly resulted in you getting along more with them than the others in the group.
You guys quickly became the three musketeers. Where one went, the other two usually werent too far behind.
Surprisingly, it was Billy that was interested first. And this is largely due to how enthusiastic you are when it came to gore in movies.
He also found it endearing that you would complain about how fake the blood or gore looked, or explain how certain body parts would bend instead. As if you knew...
Huh. He chalked it up to you just doing your research. And you tell him as much when he asks.
Stu loves gore, so much. More so than Billy even. You're the first person besides Billy that he was okay showing his "art project" too: The mutilated dolls in his attic.
He does this behind Billy's back tbh, because Billy would think it was too big of a hint that they're serial killers.
But he did anyway and you loved it! Said you wanted to help him with it. He was over the moon.
Big discussion with Billy about bringing you into the relationship. They had never considered being poly before, but they knew they both wanted you and they still wanted each other.
You know that GIF of Tulio and Miguel saying "Both? Both. Both is good."? Yeah, its basically that lmao.
So, after a bit of time in the relationship, they noticed how accepting you are of...pretty much anything dark they let slip out and stuff.
And this is where Billy casually brings up murder in the same way he did to Stu originally. He was 1000% sure you wouldn't mind and figured he could bring you in.
It was risky, but a three person alibi would be invaluable.
You decline, because your MO was different, unbeknownst to them. But you were enthusiastic and encouraged them.
You couldn't believe your luck at finding two boyfriends who also love murder as much as you. The odds are low, but not impossible, and you're living proof.
So, Stu loves to try and spoil you, because Billy wouldn't let him unless it was food, but you always seemed to have your own large amounts of money.
When they ask, you just mention its your parents, like Stu, and that you just get a large college allowance from them bc they care about your education or whatever excuse.
They buy it, it's not unbelievable. Stu also has parents like them.
But in reality, you money comes from your snuff films and streams. You stream in Red Rooms on the dark web and your fans are veeery generous.
And the films you make sell for ridiculously high prices.
You don't tell Billy and Stu about it because you dont know how okay they'd be with literal torture.
They killed, but they never tortured (much), and you just weren't sure if it was too far for them.
So every time they ask to move in together, you deflect.
One day they're over at your place, and you decide to go pick up the pizza you guys ordered.
They snoop around a little, and find a bunch of unlabeled tapes. Pretty old school, but they find a VCR as well. Strange.
They pop it in, and they are floored. Absolutely shocked. You're in disguise and are using a voice changer of your own, but they could still tell it was you by your mannerisms.
You come back and they confront you.
"What the fuck is this. Why didn't you tell us?"
At first Billy is pissed. He trusted you with his and Stu's secret, and you couldnt trust him with yours? Wow, fuck you.
You explain to them everything, nervous as hell. You tell them you just werent sure about if theyd be okay with the torture aspect of it.
And they are, especially Stu. Billy isn't much for torture, but he doesn't care about anyone but himself and you guys, so who cares.
Stu is over the moon at the news, asks a lot of questions, and definitely wants to join in maybe.
Billy doesn't really care to join, because he has better shit to do, and he killed for revenge or necessity - not pleasure - and any pleasure he did derive was mainly from the psychological torture. But he'll help out with other stuff if you and Stu beg him.
It basically becomes you and Stu's thing.
Billy and Stu have their murder stuff, and you and Stu have your torture stuff. Now it's just a matter of finding something for you and Billy to do together <3

for blurb night, 41 and 62 with jack hughes? thanksđ
hihi !! these prompts make me weak for protective!jack. im also in a brother!jack mood so this includes that bc it warms my heart. this one went a bit over 1k, my bad. i hope you like this one <3
contains: olderbrother!jack (and quinn and idk you can choose lukes age it doesnt rlly matter)
warnings: brief mentions of anxiety, physical assault (grabbing), creepy dude being weird and touching readers arm.
y/n/n = your nickname
"he shouldn't have touched you like that."
"can you take a deep breath for me, hm?"
your brothers were always really protective over you. especially quinn and jack. luke was a bit cautious, already having been a victim of his brothers' tyranny. he didn't want to make it even worse for you.
but they were all against you going to this party. it was the first one you'd ever been invited to so you really wanted to go. it didn't help that your parents were out of town and they were in charge of you but you were old enough now, old enough to make your own decisions. of course in their eyes you were still a baby.
you didn't listen to them. you knew they were smart, you didn't know how you managed to sneak out without getting caught but you did, and now you were here â and you hated it.
there had never been a moment in your life where you wanted to leave more than you did right now. it was crowded and sweaty, bodies were crashing into each other as they drunkenly stumbled across the room, music was pounding in your ears.. you hated it all.
by now you would have expected your brothers to have caught on but you hadn't received a single call nor text. you debated whether or not you should risk outing yourself by asking one of them to pick you up.
they were smarter than you gave them credit for, though. they knew you were going to sneak out and obviously they'd followed you to the party. they were waiting in the car, having some sort of a stakeout as they waited for you to leave the party house before confronting you.
"it's been like two hours, man! i gotta piss," luke complained from the back seat.
jack turned towards him while quinn rolled his eyes. "we're waiting here as long as we have to."
luke groaned as quinn sighed, rubbing his temples. "i'm worried about her. you think we should go in there?"
"yes," luke replied immediately, receiving a glare from the other two.
"i think one of us should go. it might be a bit overwhelming if we all go in there at once," jack spoke.
"fine, you go."
jack's eyes widened. "whaâ why me?"
"you suggested it," quinn shrugged, unlocking the doors for him. "go on."
"if i die today, i'm gonna fucking kill you."
quinn snorted at his words. "yeah, okay. we'll see about that."
"fucking hate parties. i fucking hate y/n, today's her last day on earth, i swear to.." jack mumbled incoherently as he stepped out of the car and slammed the door shut.
back inside, you were panicking. some dude was chatting you up and you hated it. his words went in one ear and out the other. you couldn't care less about anything he had to say, the only thing on your mind being an escape plan.
while caught up in your thoughts you felt his hand brush against yours. your breath got caught in your throat and your gaze met his.
you hadn't realized at which point of the conversation his eyes got dark.
"what are you thinking about, pretty girl?"
you swallowed the forming lump in your throat, taking note of the tattoos running up his neck and the rings on his fingers. it all happened in an instant. you didn't reply and you could see the smoke fuming out of his ears.
he grabbed your arm and you couldn't stop him as he dragged you somewhere unknown. his grip on you was tight and it hurt, bringing tears to your eyes.
"let go of me!" you shouted. your voice was drowned by the deafening beat blaring through the speakers. no one could hear you and everyone was in their own world to notice.
you should have listened to your brothers, you knew you should have called them earlier but you didn't and now you were in trouble. as he made his way towards the staircase another hand connected with your arm, roughly removing the boy's grip on you.
"where the fuck are you taking my sister?"
your eyes widened. oh my god, you thought to yourself as your eyes found jack.
your heart pounded rapidly against your chest as you wrapped your arms around him, shoving your face into his chest.
"none of your fucking business."
"listen, pal. if she wasn't here right now i'd knock the shit out of you. watch your fucking back," jack spat, holding you close to him.
you could sense a stare down going on but you were too scared to care even the slightest bit. you felt your chest closing up, almost like you couldn't breathe. you just needed to get out.
"hey, you okay?" jack asked just loud enough for you to hear.
he felt you shake your head and went into full big brother mode, trying to find a quiet place to calm you down. he knew if he took you back to the car you'd freak out even more. deciding to take a chance, he kept you tight to his side while making his way towards the first room he saw.
he opened the door and shouted at the sight, making sure to keep your head hidden from the makeout session he'd witnessed. after a bit of back and forth he'd surprisingly got the couple to unwillingly leave the room.
"hey, hey," he got your attention, cupping your face in his hands. "can you take a deep breath for me, hm?"
you listened, shakily breathing through your nose with him as he showed you what to do.
"yeah, just like that. keep going, y/n/n, you're doing great.
you both sat down on the bed and you grabbed his hand while breathing together. you followed him and after a couple moments all that was left were the silent tears falling from your eyes.
"you alriâ"
"i'm sorry," you cut him off. "this wouldn't have happened if i listened to you guys, i don't know what i was thinking."
"no," he shook his head immediately. "he shouldn't have touched you like that."
"butâ"
"shut up," he pulled you into another hug, soothingly rubbing your arm. "i'm gonna kill him."
"i don't doubt it.. thanks jack, you're the best."
"i know."

Heyo! I'm a REALLY REALLY REALLY! Big fan of angst and your works, so I have a suggestion! So like, in this au Bakugou and Y/N are aged up and they have a daughter (let's just say her name is either Katsumi or Kirumi). So, the child is 4 years old and she didn't get her quirk yet. Let's just say Bakugou got drunk when his friends dragged him to a bar and this woman decided to hit him up and let's just say he cheated- so Y/N found out because kiri just had to tell her because it wasn't manly at all for him to keep a secret and Y/N left him with his child and boom! Bad ending. Please tag me in this one tyy!
Bet.
(Changed it up the slightest bit to make Katsumi remember bc I kinda wanna do a part 2 for this)
Nobody to Blame but Yourself - Bakugou Katsuki
Bakugou x f!reader
Warnings: ANGST, cursing, cheating, alcohol consumption
BAKUGOUâS MASTERLIST
Pt.1 Pt.2
You have a small, beautiful family. Your loving husband, Katsuki and your adorable daughter, 5 year old Katsumi.
Katsumi was your precious baby girl. She had Katsukiâs ash blonde hair with your silky smooth hair texture. She had your E/C eyes and Katsukiâs porcelain skin. She had Katsukiâs bravery and boldness along with your kindness and compassion. She was a perfect mix of you both.
Y/N and Katsuki have been together ever since their childhood. Their families were close and they grew up together. Katsuki always swore to protect his princess. They got together in their junior year and about 5 years after they graduated from UA high, Katsuki proposed.
â
â
âBe back soon, okay Suki?â You sweetly said to your husband as he got closer to the door. He pulled you in with a smile and pecked your cheek.
âYeah, yeah Teddy Bear. Iâll probably be back sooner than you think, donât even wanna go with those losers.â He complained with a strained face. You giggled at his expression and went on.
âThose losers have been your best friends since high school. You love them. You know you do,â you teased. âBesides, you havenât spent some time with them in forever.â
âYeah Y/N. Iâm a husband and a dad. I donât need to be around my friends, I need to be with my family.â He exclaimed with a playful voice.
âWell your family will still be here when you get back. Just as long as you always come back to us too.â You said with a wink.
âAlways will Teddy Bear.â He said holding you tight. He held you close until you both heard the little pitter patter of feet running to the front door. You both looked down and saw your daughter in her pjs and watched as she jumped onto Katsuki.
âBe back soon daddy!â She said with a squeal. Katsumi was definitely a daddyâs girl. Her and her father were attached at the hip the second she was born. They were best friends and you loved their father-daughter dynamic.
âKatsumi, youâre supposed to be sleeping, love.â You said with a chuckled as you held her tiny hand while Katsuki picked her up in his arms.
âI wanted to say bye to daddy before he went to see uncle Kiri! And uncle Denki and uncle Sero and Auntie Mina!â She said and watched as you and Bakugou lip synced to her voice as she said the Bakusquadâs names. She laughed at her parentâs teasing as Katsuki assaulted her in kisses.
âThatâs sweet baby bear. Donât worry. Iâll be back soon. So get to bed you brat,â Bakugou said as he placed his daughter down and ruffled her hair. Others would look down on the rough treatment but you knew Katsumi never took it seriously. She always laughed and played back with Katsuki whenever he put on his âmean guy act.â
âMâkay.â Katsuki bent down to kiss her cheek and you followed doing the same action before Katsumi ran back off to her room. You and Katsuki said bye to each other after Katsuki gave you a loving kiss. He walked out the door to meet with his friends as he knew he was in for a long night.
It would soon shock him to see how true that statement would be.
â
The night was going well. Katsuki left around 8:30 and he said he would be back sooner than you thought so considering he was now a family man, you thought heâd be back by midnight. However, you woke up in the middle of the night and saw it was 3 in the morning...and he still wasnât home. You were starting to get worried now.
If this was back in your earlier years of marriage, youâd say this was okay. Not great but okay, except now, Katsuki has responsibilities and promises that he vowed to keep. He shouldâve been home a long time ago. Where was he? You stayed up deciding to sit and wait for him to come home and after almost 2 hours, your phone rang.
You picked it up quickly with a little bit of fear and anger sitting in your stomach. You didnât even bother to check who it was so when you heard the voice of your husbandâs best friend instead of Katsuki, you grew concerned.
âKatsuki! Where are you?!â You asked with worry as you slightly shouted into the phone.
âHey Y/N..... Itâs Kirishima. Umm...I have something to tell you.â He said with sadness detected in his voice.
âKiri? Is everything alright? Wheres Katsuki?â You asked.
âIâm so sorry Y/N...â
Listening to the red headâs voice made your eyes pop. Your body trembled and tears began to pool in your eyes as you shook your head in denial. Katsuki loved you. You both had a daughter! A family! He would never....he wouldnât....right? After talking to your friend for some time and getting the crucial information you needed, you made up your mind on what you had to do.
âT-Thank you, Kirishima. Goodnight.â You said into the phone with a hiccup.
âIâm sorry Y/N. You donât deserve this. You and Katsumi....goodnight.â He said and hung up the phone. You placed it down and sat in silence for a moment. After about a minute, you broke down again and cried into your hands. You sobbed as tears flowed down your cheeks. Rivers of heartbreak and anger streamed down your face as you cried the night away.
Well..you couldnât cry all night. Katsuki would probably be back in the morning and you had plans. Youâd have to save your tears for later. You looked at the time.
4:18 a.m.
You set your alarm for 6 and went back to bed. The whole night, all you could think about was your precious baby girl. This was going to break her little heart. Instead of crying over your husbandâs betrayal, you wept for your daughterâs future without her best friend. Eventually you cried yourself to sleep and the sun rose in time.
â
10:00 a.m
Katsuki opened his eyes to the alarm on the nightstand. He yawned a bit before adjusting his eyes to morning light. The more he looked at the stand, the more he realized he didnât recognize it. Nor the alarm clock. He looked around and noticed he wasnât in his bedroom. Katsuki shot up and sat on the bed and looked down to notice he was completely undressed. He looked to the side and saw some random woman. A complete stranger who was also naked in bed with him. His heart grew rapid as his eyes grew frantic.
âNo, no, no, no, no, no this canât be happening..this canât be happening!â Katsuki said as his hands found way to his hair as he tugged on the blonde locks. The woman next to him awoken to his shuffling and smiled up at him. She placed her hand on his bare chest and cuddled in close to him as she sighed in content.
âGâmorning handsome. Had a fun night?â She teased, reminding him of his affair and unloyal actions.
âGet the fuck off me!â He said as he jumped out of bed and found his pants. He pulled them on and continued to scream. âWhat the fuck is wrong with you?! The hell did you do to me you fucking slut?â
âWhatâre you talking about? And who the fuck are you calling a slut?â The woman said with sass.
âJust tell me where I am!â Katsuki demanded.
âA hotel! You know, the hotel you dragged me to so you could get your dick wet.â She said as she sat up from the bed but still covered herself with the blanket.
âWhy the fuck would I do that?!â He screamed.
âYou tell me. All I know is that I saw you in that bar, you drank a hell of a lot with your friends, I came up to you and flirted with you, you flirted back, we shared a few more drinks, and you dragged me here. I mean, I consented of course but still.â The stranger explained. Bakugou shook as he looked around in a frenzy. âAnyway, round 2?â
âYou fucking bitch, I have a wife!â He screamed at her as he got himself dressed.
âHeh, wow. Well when your wife leaves you after she finds out you cheated, give me a call.â The woman said as she layed back down on the bed. Katsuki seethed at her as he squinted his eyes in disgust.
âYou shameless slut. Like hell I will! And Y/Nâs not gonna leave me! She loves me! And I love her-â
âSure didnât seem like it last night~â the woman said. Bakugou had enough and blasted the bed she was on with his quirk before cussing her out and leaving her there. He quickly ran out the hotel and found his car. He hopped inside and started it as he quickly sped off home.
âShit!â Bakugou screamed at himself. How could he do that?! How could he cheat on you?! You were his everything! You and Katsumi! His two girls were his entire world! And he betrayed the both of you by doing this. He could only hope that you wouldnât find out. He canât tell you what he did. He would lose you! He canât lost you! This whole thing just has to pass over and things will be fine. Right? Well something didnât sit right with him as he inched closer and closer to his house.
â
When the 6 oâclock alarm rang, you woke up, ready for the day to begin and the drama to unfold. You were quick to get yourself ready. Brush your teeth, shower, get dressed, a little makeup, and you packed your important belongings and your clothes. Everything else would be replaceable. You put on a pair of shoes and put the rest in the large suitcase you had.
You made a quick call to Mina, assuming she already knew what happened. You asked if you could drop Katsumi off for some time and she of course said yes. After saying âthank you,â you brought all your bags into your car and went back inside to get your daughter.
You walked into your daughterâs bedroom to see her sleeping peacefully. Next to her bed, a framed picture of your once happy family. It was Katsumiâs 4th birthday and she didnât want to spend it with anybody else except for Mommy and Daddy. Now, you were gonna have to take someone out the picture. You shook your daughter awake and watched as she opened her beautiful E/C eyes that resembled your own.
âKatsumi..hey baby, wake up.â You softly said with a reassuring smile to not alarm her. You watched as she rubbed her eyes with her tiny fist and looked up at you.
âMommy? Whatâs going on?â She asked as she looked around in a daze.
âYouâre gonna have a little play date at Auntie Mina and Uncle Kiriâs house. Uncle Denki and Uncle Sero will be there too! You excited?â You asked with enthusiasm to hide your pain.
âReally Mommy?!â Your daughter asked with excitement.
âMhm! Get ready and get dressed for Mommy. Theyâll be here at 8, okay?â You said rubbing your daughterâs back before she quickly jumped out of bed and into her own bathroom.
âOkay Mommy!â She said as she ran into the bathroom, turning on the sink to begin her morning routine. Some time passed and Katsumi got dressed and you went back in her room to help her dry her hair. You helped her put on her shoes and by the time they were on, Mina and Kiri were already at the door.
You opened it with a soft smile and the couple looked at you with supportive, sad eyes. âHey guys..â
âItâs okay to be sad Y/N, weâre here for you.â Mina said. Your eyes teared up at her words but you shook your head and gave her a hug.
âThank you, but I promise myself I wouldnât cry. At least, not when Katsumiâs around. I gotta be strong for her. Her whole lifeâs about to change after all.â You sadly said as you looked down and released your hold on Mina. Your pink friend nodded before walking into the house to find Katsumi in her bedroom. You and Kirishima stayed at the door and talked a bit more.
âIâm so sorry for all of this Y/N. I shouldâve been watching him more.â Kirishima said as he looked down in sorrow.
âKiri, you shouldnât have to watch him. He cheated and that was his choice. Your choice was being a true friend and telling me. A true man,â you joked. You both gave a little bittersweet laugh before calming down again. âThank you so much Kirishima.â
The red head did nothing but pull you in for a tight hug. You almost cried on his shoulder before your daughter came to the both of you. âUncle Kiri!â
You both separated and looked down at the excited 5 year old. She jumped onto her uncle and he happily held her in his arms. âHey squirt. Ready for a day full of fun?â
âMhm!â Katsumi replied. You all talked some more before Katsumi said her goodbye to you and went off with Kirishima and Mina. You shut the door and took a break as you allowed a few silent tears to drop. You wiped them away and went to pack your daughterâs bags. Just a few more hours and heâd be home..probably. All you knew was that youâd have to face him eventually.
Finally, you finished packing your daughterâs things and placed them in your car. You put on a jacket and waited for Katsuki to walk through the doors. Soon, this perfect little family would go crumbling to the ground.
â
Katsuki pulled into his driveway and his eyes took notice of your car still there. He smiled at the sight and quickly got out of the car. He slammed the vehicle door shut and ran to the entrance. He unlocked the door in a rush and to say he was happy to see you on the couch, still there, was an understatement.
âY/N! Hey Teddy Bear! I am so sorry!â He said as he ran to you and sat down next to you on the couch, pulling you in for a tight hug. He was too happy to even notice your jacket and shoes that you wore.
âKatsuki, you were gone all night. Where were you?â You said in a soft voice as you placed your hand on his chest so you could face him.
âI-..I overdid it and spent the night at Kirishimaâs. Iâm so sorry I didnât tell you, love. I was passed out the whole night.â He said and attempted to pull you in again but you pressed a hand to his chest to stop him. You couldnât believe he was going to lie to you. Actually, now that you think about it, cheating wasnât below him so why would lying be either?
âSo why didnât Kirishima call me? Or Mina?â You questioned. Unfortunately, you underestimated Katsukiâs quick tongue. He was a good liar, and if you hadnât already known the truth, youâd probably believe him.
âShitty hairâs phone died and Alien girl was asleep by the time we got back. By the time he put me in the guest bed, I knocked out so donât asked me what happened after.â He said. Your anger and fury grew at his lies but he didnât notice. âLook, Iâm so sorry I came back so late but I can make it up to you Teddy Bear. Now would you just give me a hu-â
âSHUT! UP!â You screamed as you pushed him off of you. You stood up from the couch and Bakugou watched you in âconfusion.â Bakugou felt his heart racing as he had a guess at why you were so mad but he refused to believe it.
âT-Teddy Bear, whats wrong?â He asked with shaky hands as he tried to reach out to you but you dodged all his attempts.
âWhatâs wrong? Whatâs wrong?! Youâre fucking lying to me! Youâre lying to me after doing what you did! Katsuki, are you just gonna act like you donât know what you did?! Because I know! So why donât you?!â You screamed at him. Bakugou still couldnât believe you knew so he tried his soft attempts once more and reached out to you again.
âBaby, please calm dow-â
âAre you fucking serious Katsuki? Youâre gonna tell me to calm down?!â You laughed out in disbelief. You watched as Katsukiâs lip began to tremble and he looked down in shame. âSay it.â
âWhat?â He spoke softly.
âSay what you did.â
â......â
âSay it Katsuki! Tell me what you did and how you betrayed not only me but your daughter too.â You specified. It took Bakugou a second before he spoke up in a soft, quiet voice.
âI cheated on you...â
âLouder.â
âI cheated on you!â He said while standing up and facing you with tears in his eyes. âI cheated on you! Okay?! I got drunk last night and slept with someone else but baby I swear I didnât mean it!â He said as he walked to you and tried to hold you. You once again pushed his hands away before speaking back.
âIt doesnât matter if you meant it or not Katsuki! You still did it!â Your voice grew dry as it began to break. Your eyes pooled with tears as you continued. âI wouldâve NEVER done that to you. I wouldnât even be CAPABLE of doing that to you Katsuki! Because I love you!â
âI love you Y/N! I swear I do!â He fought back but you retaliated.
âIt doesnât seem like it! Because you slept with someone else! You promised me you would never hurt me. You promised you would always protect me. You promised me that you loved me and only me! Not only that but you promised your daughter that you would never bring harm to her! Guess what?! Youâre the reason her whole life is going to be so fucked Katsuki! Do you realize that?!â You screamed at him.
âI do, Teddy Bear, I do!â He said.
âDonât fucking call me that Katsuki!â You said with an exasperated voice. Bakugou shook his head as he walked to you and kneeled infront of you.
âBaby, please! Iâm sorry! I was drunk, it didnât mean anything! It was a mistake but if we can forget about this I promise Iâll make it up to you!â He begged.
âForget? Forget?! Are you insane?! Iâm never gonna be able to forget any of this Katsuki. How the hell am I supposed to forget that my first friend, my first love, my first kiss, my first everything betrayed me like this! How am I supposed to forget that my husband, who Iâve known since we were fucking babies, cheated on me?! Tell me!â You said as the tears finally fell.
âI donât know...I donât know but I promise I can make it up to you! So please forgive me! Please stay!â He pleaded. The whole time he couldnât let go of you. Every time you pushed him off, he just came right back.
âHow am I supposed to trust that youâll actually keep that promise?â You said softly with a sad voice. âIf it wasnât clear already, Iâm not staying. Weâre getting a divorce, Katsuki.â
Bakugou felt his heart shatter. He looked at you with his trembling body and shaky irises. âW-What?â
âKatsuki...you cheated. Thereâs no other way around it. No explanations or excuses. And you canât even blame it on the alcohol because Iâve been blackout drunk before too and the idea of cheating on you never even crossed my mind. You have nobody to blame but yourself.â You said with a broken voice and a shrug. âWeâre getting a divorce and Iâm taking Katsumi with me.â You said and began to walk to the door.
Bakugou couldnât believe what he just heard and so he got up from his knees and ran after you. He ran in front of you and held you by the shoulders. âWhat?! No! Baby!! Please, thatâs my daughter! You canât just take her from me, please!â
âI wonât be taking her from you,â you said and pushed his hands off your shoulders. âWe can co-parent, but when sheâs old enough, when Katsumi asks why weâre no longer together, Iâll be telling her the truth. So you can still see her, but when sheâs ready to know, if she decides she hates you and doesnât want to see you ever again, then youâll have to accept it.â
At this point, Katsuki began to openly cry as he allowed his fat tears to flow down his face. Hiccups left his mouth as he shamelessly sobbed infront of you. âY-Y/N....please donât go. You guys are my family, youâre both my entire world..I-I love you both so much,â he said and went in to grab your hand, which you allowed. âI know I hurt you both a-and I know I fucked up, but please just give me another chance. I swear this was just a mistake, I never meant to do it. Please stay...please let me fix my mistake. I love you.â
Tears once again filled your eyes but you didnât allow them to flow. â.....I love you too Katsuki,â at those words, Bakugou felt a bit of hope. âBut I just canât stay with you. If it was just me..I probably would give you another chance..but Katsumi is your daughter Katsuki. Sheâs your own flesh and blood and you betrayed her. Youâre supposed to be her hero and you betrayed her like this. I just canât trust the fact that you wonât do something like this again, and not just for my sake but for our daughterâs too. Iâm sorry, but this is where we end.â
Once you said that you walked away from Bakugou, leaving him in shock. He stood there, regretting everything. Not just his mistake, but all the times where he couldâve been a better husband.
âI shouldâve held her more..I shouldâve been home more...I shouldâve been more for them,â he thought until he heard the door open and slam shut. He turned to face it and looked around the now very empty house. He allowed silent tears to drip down his face and then he took a little tour of his new environment.
He walked to the master bedroom and saw all your belongings gone. He saw your closet was empty, all your shoes gone. He went into the bathroom and saw all your stuff was missing. The tears flowed faster and when he walked into his daughterâs room, it made it 10x worse.
He opened the door to the pink room and saw her bedsheets missing, all her toys gone, her closet was barren, and her bathroom was hollow. He walked back out to his little girlâs former bed and sat down. He cried on the bed and sobbed into his hands. He broke down as he thought back to your words. You were right.
âYou have nobody to blame but yourself.â
Katsuki looked up from his hands and when he did, he took notice of the picture frame that was left faced down on the night stand. He picked it up and his heart turned to dust. It couldnât break anymore. He looked at the picture of his once happy family. His beautiful wife, his blessing of a daughter. His two girls who had a protector...that protector was supposed to be him...and he failed. He smiled at the picture but continued to cry. It was a beautiful sight but you left it behind.
He took the picture with him as he walked to his bedroom. He sat on the bed and held the frame close to his chest as he layed down on the cold mattress. Tears still freely fell as a shadow casted over his eyes. No words could be said except for a few.
âN-Nobody to blame but myself.â

GOJO SATORU || pain in the ass
request: gojo and reader are special grades and their parents want them to get married so they could make a strong generation for their family (she doesnt like this and she thinks it's stupid). in the first meeting, they went together to exorcise some curses in mountain (their family asked them to do it together so they can get along), she ignored him bc she thinks he is kind of asshole but gojo keeps teasing her (he thinks her reaction is cute and she looks hot and actually he likes her and thinks getting married with her doesnt sound so bad).
could you make it jsjjdks i keep imagining this in my head and i think it's cute if the reader started to catch feelings too...... btw your writings are amazing i really love them and thank you!!
note: AHAHAHA I LOVE THIS! I am so happy most of us agree that Gojo, as hot as he is, can be an asshole. But this one is v fluffy, and very cute! I tried to cut down on not making it too long cause not going to lie, I always love reading tropes like this! the âannoying-ass-to-kinda-cuteââ sort of trope, and I love it cx but here you go babes! I definitely enjoyed writing something like this.
pronouns: she/her
âY/N, guess what?â
Y/Nâs chopsticks came to a stop as she closes her eyes, taking a deep breath to brace herself before slowly bringing her eyes away from the meal before them; meeting her motherâs eyes head on. âWhat is it, Mother?â She asks the older woman hesitantly, unsure of how to respond when she saw the familiar glint in her eyes - immediately telling her that she was not going to like where the conversation was heading. âRemember how we talked about being in the main family? How, as the oldest child, you need to set an example for your siblings?â
â..yes?â Y/Nâs voice was uncertain, which made her mother frown but she didnât comment any further on it. âWell, your father and I met up with a family recently, who has a son around your age.â The older woman said just as an annoyed sigh was heard, the woman narrowing her eyes at her daughter who sets her chopsticks down quite loudly. âMother, how many times have I told you that I donât like this whole arranged marriage scheme you and Father have come up with.â
Before her mother can give her a response, her husband reaches over to grab her hand in his, giving her a soft look before he clears his throat loudly. âEveryone, would you give us a moment?â He asked as he glances over at the rest of his kids, who all gave their oldest sister a concerned glance before they started to make their way out of the room; their mother closing the door after them. Not without giving her husband another look, one that Y/N caught and had her blood boil a little in annoyance.
Once the shoji doors of the dining room were slid shut the older man lets out a soft sigh before he made his way towards his oldest, taking up the zabuton that his son had left empty by her side. Quietly he reaches out to take her hand in his, his rougher hands incasing her own ones that were roughen up by years of combat training; but there was still a certain softness and feminine touch to them. âPrincess - you know your mother and I just want to look out for you.â He started off with a tired sigh, to which the younger woman just gave her father a look. âI know you donât see marriage as a viable route. But you have to remember, not only are you a Special Grade sorcerer, you also come from a strong clan like ours.â
âYes, yes, I know - but what does my marriage status have to do with this?â Y/N stresses with a frown as she looks over at her father once more. âYou and I both know that the elders can be very old schooled. I mean - who still insist on marrying every of age person of as soon as possible?â She ranted with pure annoyance lacing her voice, the older man just listening to her complains with a soft smile. He canât get upset at her - he himself went on a rant when he was first told of his own engagement during his teen years. âI know itâs sudden and against your wish, but can you entertain your old man once? One meeting, that is all I ask of you.â
At first his words was met with silence, but he just waited for her to slowly but surely give in. Which she did after a few more moments. â...just once.â She said with a tired sigh, causing the older man to chuckle before he leans over to kiss her on the head softly. âBut if I donât like him, I am never going to let you forget about this.â She stated simply as she looks over at her elderly father, who just smiles softly in return. âI am sure youâre going to enjoy his presence. Heâs of your age, and a Special Grade sorcerer too. I am sure you two are going to get along just fine.â
âI am going to murder his dumbass.â
To say Y/N was upset would be an understatement - there were clear waves of annoyance just radiating off the sorcerer. Today was the day she was supposed to meet with her âfiancĂ©â for the first time, and he was not giving her the best first impression. Not only is he half an hour late, he didnât send anyone to give her a heads up either. So now she was just standing there, tapping her foot impatiently as she glanced at her watch once more.Â
They were supposed to meet at the gates of a mountain temple to exorcise some curses that had started to appear around the temple. Hence why she stood by a traditional torii gate, her mood souring with each passing second. She glanced over at the monks who care for the temple and bow at them apologetically, to which they just gave her reassuring smiles and bow back softly as well. âI do apologies for my companion. Seems he still lacks the ability to read a clock.â
âHow rude. And here I thought that youâd be excited to meet your future fiancĂ©.â A teasing voice came from behind her, causing her to turn her narrowed eyes back to finally get a look at her fiancĂ© - only to have her eyes widen when she realised just how tall the man was. She gave him a once over, noting his handsome features and white haired style upwards; and how his eyes were covered by a blindfold. He sported a soft grin which he thought might have tell her how apologetic he was, but it just causes her to get more irritated. âI do apologise for making you wait. I had a run in with some pesky curses along the way.â
For some reason Y/N did not believe his words, but she just rolled her eyes before she turned and made her way towards the torii gate, walking on the side like she was taught to do. Quietly she started to climb the stone steps up to the temple, not even caring if the man was following behind her. But she can tell from the footsteps that followed behind her, and soon he opened his mouth once more. âWhat? No introduction?â
âL/N Y/N.â She stated simply, her hand resting on the beautifully carved katana that rest on her hip as she started to glance about the wooded area; trying to see if she can sense any Curses near by. âNice to meet you, Y/N-chan. My name is Goto Satoru.â The white haired shaman greeted back with a grin, to which the woman just lets out a soft hum, not necessarily paying attention to what he had just said. But Goto wasnât deterred, walking a few steps behind her as he watches her walk before him. âYouâre the oldest heir of the L/N clan?âÂ
âUnfortunately.â The woman replied back in annoyance, to which the taller male raises an eyebrow at her response. He can tell that in that sense, they can definitely relate - they were both heirs to clans who are so backwards thinking that they think that they need to find âthe best matchesâ for all of their available heirs.Â
If he was being honest, Gojo had no intention of coming to arrange meeting. He wanted to blow it off with some lame excuse, or just flip off his elders when they ask. But something told him that he should just come for the sake of seeing which miserable soul was forced into the same position he was in. And if he was being honest, he doesnât regret coming to the meeting that much anymore. âBy the way, do you consider this to be our first date?â
âIf it is, I can definitely say my low standards for the day just reached the floor.â She grumbled before she paused just underneath another torii gate, looking up at the Curse that was wrapped around one of the sides like a giant snake; hissing at them loudly. âHow rude.â Gojo replied back with a pout, standing back and watching the woman unsheathes her katana, how she imbed her own Cursed Energy onto the blade; raising a curious brow at just how strong her Cursed Energy was.
Weirdly enough, he finds her not only interesting, but extremely hot. Who wouldnât find a strong woman hot?
He watches her in silence as she sliced the air before her, the Curse letting out a loud cry of main as it was sliced up into pieces by invisible blades. But the woman didnât cast the withering Curse another glance as she pushes forward. âCome on, letâs get this over with.â She sighs as she rest her katana over her shoulder, looking back at the man with an unamused look. Gojo instead grins before he follows behind the woman now getting more interested than he was before. âYou know, I think you and I are going to get along well.â
âWhat a pain in the ass.â Was her only answer, causing his grin to widen as he hums to himself whilst following behind the clearly fuming woman. Yeah, he definitely doesnât regret his decision to come now.
It wasnât the first time the both of them were forced to cross paths with one another.
With all that said and done, both Gojo and Y/N were definitely quite the duo. Both of them are Special Grades, and both of them work together almost flawlessly. Even though Gojo is considered âthe strongestâ, Y/N is the more polished and definitely more refined sorcerer; since she had taken her early training. Because of this they balance each other out quite nicely, making them quite the formidable duo. Due to this, they are scent to many missions together, forcing them to spend a lot of time with each other.
Y/Nâs first impression on Gojo is that he doesnât necessarily care about anyone or anything. Yet Y/N can tell that he cares for all of his students with his entire being, and is always willing to go the extra mile to make sure that they get to experience their youth to the fullest extent. Besides that, heâs also someone who can try and make light no matter the situation. Even Y/N can admit that his snarky comments and sarcastic responses has made her let out a laugh or two.
It wasnât just that - it was also how, even though they were forced into a union together unwillingly, he tries to make the most out of it. Not only does he show her around Tokyo, since sheâs from a town in Kyoto Province - he also made it his own mission to show her all the fun restaurants and dessert cafes all over the city that he himself visits. He also goes out of his way to make sure that her elders are not bothering her too much about when the wedding is going to be. Gojo can tell that Y/Nâs elders are pushing for this more than his are, so he did visit her clanâs home a few times to make sure that they werenât pressuring her about marriage.
Along the way he has met her parents and her siblings, somehow managing to fit into her family unit in a short about of time. Whether itâs playing video games with her younger sister, or rough housing with her younger brother, even bonding with your parents over tea - there was no denying that he somehow manages to get along with everyone. It did make her heart flutter a little, since finding a man who is not only an ease to be around, but also makes the effort to get to know your parents is a rare gem to find.Â
On days when they are both free, he would appear and drag her out of her home, begging for her to bring him around her hometown and to the Kyoto School for a visit. For the most part though, he just goes to the Kyoto branch so he can annoy Utahime, who will turn to you with the most annoyed scowl on her face. âOut of all the men on this planet, you had to choose the white haired menace?â The woman would ask her junior with an unamused scowl, to which Y/N would just apologise wordlessly with a soft one of her own.
If she was being honest, she had no idea that the man she once found annoying become attractive; and was definitely not even sure when she started to fall for him. But she remembers the day when she realised that there was definitely something more she felt for him - it was family game night. Gojo, who had visited Kyoto to handle something, had dropped by with some takeout to share with your family. After a nice dinner, which was filled with laughter, Y/N sat down on the engawa of her family home; smiling softly at the sight of Gojo playing with her younger siblings.
Just the sight of the three of them bonding together, laughing and running around the courtyard that cause a warm feeling to travel through her entire person; a wider and much more sincere smile tugging against her lips. It was when a pair of crystalline blue eyes that seemed to almost glow in the night turn to face her, half hidden behind darkly tinted sunglasses as the owner grinned over at her with such child like happiness that it hit her like a truck.
âHoly shit, Iâve fallen for him.â She whispered quietly to herself as she continues to watch the oblivious trio before her, her cheeks warming the longer she watches him laugh and play with her siblings. If her past her sees her now, she might not be too proud at how they had decided to go against her number one rule - and that was not to fall for the man.Â
Now she is never going to hear the end of this any time soon.

Sick day headcannons!!!!!!!
Hell yeah, I do have a post on this already (linked here) but sick day headcanons are some of my favs so letâs do some more! (Just btw there will be some repeats but that just means I rlly like that headcanon)
Dick
Dick: Oh no, god no!
Wally: Whatâs wrong?!
Dick: Iâm dying!
Wally, suspicious: OkayâŠ
Dick: Please Wally this is serious, I need help!
Wally, deciding to take Dick seriously: Okay, whatâs wrong? What do you need?
Dick: Just a coffin. Made of maple- no oak! And roses, preferably white, oh or blue! With babyâs breath. And-
Wally: Dick, whatâs wrong?!
Dick: I burnt the roof of my mouth.
Wally leaves.
A good rule of thumb for Dick is the more dramatic he is the less serious the situation. The less dramatic he is the more serious the situation.
He will go into work with a cold and complain the entire day.
If he has something serious thatâs contagious heâll call in sick but just say itâs a slight stomach bug.
If itâs not contagious he will act like everything is completely fine.
One time he did this after getting an injury on patrol and ended up passing out and spending that night and the next day in the ICU.
He has become a bit more responsible over the years, mainly bc he thinks itâs adorable how sweet and cuddly Damian gets.
His favorite sick day activity is eating junk food and watching rom coms under a fuzzy blanket .
Babs
Dick: Please go to bed!
Babs: I am, I am, just one more line of code.
Dick: Youâve said that for the last three hours!
Babs tries to relax when sick but she has trouble actually taking a step back to rest.
Most of the time sheâll take a nightquil then get distracted by something and ends up falling asleep in front of her screen.
Usually Cass or Steph will come over and take care of her.
Steph always makes the best comfort food. And usually Cass will tuck Babs into bed.
Babs loves dozing on the couch to the sound of Cass and Steph laughing in the kitchen as they make her soup.
If Cass and Steph canât come over she loves talking to them over discord while eating take out. Usually she and Cass just listen to Steph babble or she watches on of them stream something.
She also usually ends up falling asleep.
Jason
Bruce: Are you sick?
Jason: Iâm legally dead.
Bruce: That doesnât-
Jason: So,legally, no. I am not sick.
Jason will forever and always argue that he canât get sick since he already died.
When he was little he was rarely able to get extra rest when he was sick. Because when he was really little he wanted to go to school to avoid Willis. After Catherine died he was too busy just trying to survive to focus on being healthy.
But when Catherine was alive and Willis was away Jason would stay home from school, and if Catherine was sober she would read to him and sing lullabies. This only happened like twice but Jason cherishes those memories of Catherine.
As a kid if he was ever sent home for being sick heâd get in huge trouble with Willis.
After being adopted the first time he was sent home with a fever he begged Alfred not to tell Bruce and hid in his closet until he stopped crying being sad. Alfred sat by the closet door with soup, a grilled cheese, and tea, reading The Princess Bride aloud until Jason came out. It took two hours.
Jasonâs favorite sick day activity is drinking tea and rereading The Princess Bride (with the movie playing quietly in the background) while wearing his Wonder Woman hoodie.
Cass
Steph: Cass why are you patrolling while sick?!
Cass shrugs.
Steph, with a sigh: Youâre allowed to take a sick day, okay?
Cass looks unsure but nods.
Steph: Câmon, letâs get you a bath and fuzzy blankets.
Cass forgets that sheâs not just a weapon/tool. She forgets that sheâs allowed to rest when sick.
Because of this she will keep going no matter what and tends to view âtaking a sick dayâ as a failure.
Steph, Tim, and Babs have been working on this with her. Sheâs improved a lot now that Tim lost his spleen and gets sick easily.
Now usually Steph cooks for her while Babs lays with her.
Cass isnât against taking medicine but she never feels like the situation is severe enough to require medication. So someone in the fam has to convince her to take her meds.
She becomes extremely cuddly when sick and will cling to anyone near her.
Her favorite sick day activity is watching old horror movies with Steph or Babs.
Steph
Steph: Iâm fine.
Steph: Iâm fine.
Steph: Iâm fine.
Steph: Iâm- I have a fever of 104, I should rest.
Stephs mom is a doctor, so sheâs used to being told âitâs just a cold, youâre fineâ.
Usually she keeps going until she canât then sleeps for like three days.
But itâs less out of stubbornness and more out of habit. So if someone tells her to rest sheâs immediately like âokay!â and takes the sick day.
Babs always calls or comes over to check on her every day that sheâs sick.
Cass has been learning how to cook and loves making Steph food when sheâs sick.
Tim used to come over but now he always calls.
Stephs favorite sick day activity is sleeping with an ice pack or heating pad, depending on the sickness, with a giant cup of ginger ale and Cass curled up beside her.
Tim
Jason: Tim, are you sick?
Tim, tiredly staring at case files: No I-
Tim is interrupted by a violent coughing fit.
Tim: Oh, I guess I am?
Growing up Tim loved getting sick because it meant the house keeper would come over and take care of him and he might even get a hug.
But she stopped coming over when Tim was ten, his parents thought he was old enough to handle being sick on his own.
Sick days in the manor were a shock to him because he was rarely alone, there was always one family member by his side.
Now that heâs immunocompromised heâs always surrounded by people, he pretends to get annoyed with it but really he loves how much they care.
Dick always sings Romani lullabies and runs his fingers through Timâs hair. Jason, Duke, and Steph will cook for him. Damian stay by his side and bring him tea. Babs will play video games with him. And Cass does a bit of everything, at least everything other than sing to him.
The family also takes Tim getting sick very seriously so if they here one cough heâs immediately being interrogated and getting his temperature checked.
Timâs favorite sick day activity is laying under a weighted blanket with a cup of tea and playing video games with Babs, Steph, Duke, and Cass.
Duke
Dick, knocking on Dukeâs door: Hey bud, why are you still in bed? I thought we were training together?
Duke: Sorry, I forgot to cancel. Iâm sick and donât think I can handle training today.
Dick: Youâre sick?!
Duke: Yeah, but donât worry Iâve been disinfecting and cleaning so no one else should get sick.
Dick: Iâm not worried about getting sick, Iâm worried about you!
Duke: âŠoh, okay.
Growing up sick days were spent at home either resting alone or with one of his parents.
He had to do some fending for himself (like cleaning and making food when his parents werenât home with him) but nothing extreme or unexpected. So, overall he had pretty normal sick days.
After he parents went missing he was so focused on getting them back and saving them that he never stopped to rest when sick.
Now as a member of the Wayne family his sick days are always spent with someone by his side, at least they are if he tells the family heâs sick.
Heâs gotten in trouble several times for not telling Alfred/the family thatâs heâs sick. Not because he puts Tim at risk, he like all the family is very cautious about that, but because everyone worries about him and wants to help take care of him.
After several lectures from Alfred heâs finally getting better about telling the family when heâs sick.
His favorite sick day activity is reading Jasonâs copy of The Princess Bride while having a bowl of Alfredâs chicken noodle soup.
Damian
Jason: Are you sick?
Damian: N-
Damian sneezes like a kitten.
Damian: No.
Cass, smiling: Sick baby brother, cute sneeze.
Damian tries to be offended but ends up having a sneezing fit.
Steph: Thatâs so adorable!!
Damian has the most adorable sneezes. He literally sounds like a kitten and the entire family and hero community finds it adorable. Damian hates it.
He used to try and pretend he wasnât sick and just work through it.
Then he sneezes in front of Harley and Ivy and they cooed over him for an hour.
Now he grumpily secluded himself in his room when sick.
Usually the family will check on him and find that Jon flew over and theyâre cuddling on his bed watching cartoons.
When Damianâs sick he really craves spicy food. Like everything he eats heâll add hot sauce or pepper to. His food is so spicy that only Cass can handle it, like it makes ghost peppers look like childâs play.
His favorite sick day activity is drinking masala chai under one of Timâs fuzzy blankets while wearing Dickâs old hoodies and surrounding himself with various soft things he stole from his siblings. This is preferably done while eating spicy tomato or lentil soup and watching cartoons with Jon.
