Friday nights were the best. They were always the same. You and Eddie would rent a bunch of movies from the Family Video, get cheap snacks and a six pack to share while cuddled up on the pullout couch in his living room. Wayne often slept in Eddie’s bed when you both would fall asleep in his usually spot, but he didn’t oblige, as Eddie’s mattress was much better than the pull out couch.

Tonight’s movie choices wore Nightmare on Elm street 2, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Killer Clowns from Outer Space. All horror obviously, and all selected by him. Your picks were The Breakfast Club, which he did not like, Silver Bullet, he did like very much, and Planet of the Apes, which was okay because he found it extremely hilarious. You usually fell asleep around the third movie, but you rented them all for the weekend anyways.

Your legs were placed in Eddie’s lap, your back against the arm of the couch with a popcorn bowl balanced on your knees, soft blankets all piled around you. The light was off and only the staticky glow of the tv shone in the room, making your eyes glimmer. Trash scattered all around you, empty pop and beer cans, chip bags and candy wrappers. The clock in the corner flashed two am, not a strange time for them to be up, however it was was strange time for them to receive a knock at the door.

Right as Freddy Krueger was about to torment kids in dreamland for the millionth time, the knock caused both you and Eddie to jump, staring at the door and then looking at each other. “You expecting company tonight?” You gave him a strange look.

“No?” He shook his head, grabbing the remote to pause the movie. He removed the blankets, then your legs off his lap as you sat up, adjusting to the light when he turned on the light switch. Eddie didn’t bother to look out the window to see who it was, as he assumed it was just a neighbor needing a quick fix. He should of known better.

He gave a quick tousle of his hair before he opened the door, an entertaining look on his face to greet his guest, but his smile dropped immediately before he could speak, the color draining from his face.

“Eddie!” A drunken slur came from his father. Yes, his father, standing in front of him with wobbles and a beer bottle clutched in his hand. “How’s my baby boy!”

You stood in confusion at the muffled voices and made your way behind Eddie, peeking out in curiosity. “Who is it, Eddie?”

“Woah!” The man cheered, stepping back with a heavy blink as he widened his eyes at you. “You got a girl now, son?”

You widened your eyes at the name. “Son?” You looked up at Eddie, who frankly, looked like he was going to pass out at any moment.

“Well? Cat got you’re tongue, kiddo? Let your old man in!” You had no choice but to move when Eddie’s father pushed past the both of you, and you stayed behind Eddie, giving him concerning looks.

His face was sculpted into confusion, shock and fear, and he gulped uneasily. “Dad…dad what are you doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be..well, in prison?”

“Out on bail.” He answered shortly, immediately going to the fridge to search for more beer. “Trial comin’ up soon. Hey, sugar will you get me one of them beers?” He looked at you sweetly and nodded to the six pack, well half of a six pack, that sat on the picnic table.

You gave Eddie a brief glance before you nodded, moving a step to get the beer and tossing it to him. He sent you a wink in thanks and you crossed your arms uncomfortably.

“So what are you doing here then?” Eddie finally showed emotion, gruff and short, stepping forward once in front of you. “Don’t you have friends you can stay with?”

He scoffed and took a long swig off his drink, droplets rolling off his chin, his stare switching between you and Eddie. You grew more nervous with each alarming look he gave you. Trouble was brewing and it wasn’t going to be good.

“You sure don’t seem very happy to see your old man, boy. Outta’ have some more respect.”

Eddie wasn’t having it.

“Get out.” He said bitterly, smacking the beer out of his dad’s hand so it splatted against the floor. “You’ve had your drink now get out.”

Maybe you should have been doing something besides standing frozen in the corner like a dummy, but you were just as shocked as Eddie was to see the man. Frankly, you weren’t ever sure if he’d been real and only a figment of your lover’s imagination. All you knew is that you weren’t supposed to bring his dad up. The only people who had that privilege was himself. Not even Wayne could. When he did talk about it, it was usually mid tears and ten beers.

“Hey!” He slurred, stepping back as his boots became damp, his lips curling angrily. “The hell did you do that for? Thought my boy would want to see his daddy?”

“I don’t.” Eddie said firmly. “Get out, man. I’m serious. You’re not welcome here.”

“Eddie.” You whispered, hugging yourself nervously as you bite at your nails, legs crossed to further hide yourself to try and look small.

“Oh, I’m not welcome here, huh?” He said unamusedly. You’d never seen pictures of his dad before, but Eddie didn’t look like him, so he must of gotten his features from his mother. You weren’t supposed to talk about her either, but Eddie wouldn’t snap at you like you did, unlike his dad. “I raised you, you know? Actin’ like a bitch and for what?”

“Raised me?” Eddie scoffed, getting angrier by the minute. “Wayne raised me! Not you! And I said get the fuck out!”

You nervously backed up to the phone in case you needed to call the police, your eyes wide and heart racing in fear as their voices escalated.

“Yeah, I can fuckin’ tell.” He spat, giving his son a nasty look. “What’s my brother been up to lately, huh? What the hell’s he doing lettin’ you keep your hair this long for? I told you it makes you look like a fuckin’ faggot!”

You audibly gasped at the comment and covered your mouth, gaining his attention. “Don’t you think so…name, what’s your name?” He snapped his fingers at you.

“Hey, don’t fucking talk to her!” Eddie stepped over once to cover his view of you, holding up his arms. “Don’t fucking talk to her, man.”

“I’ll do anything I want.” He gave him a small shove, not enough to stagger his stance. “I ain’t gonna hurt your girl, Eddie. Just wan’ talk to er’ is all.”

“My name is y/n.” You blurted out to avoid confrontation.

Eddie winced and glanced at you out of the corner of his eye, not moving a step out of his father’s eye line.

“Well…y/n,” He nodded his head shakily, staggering slightly with thick words. “Don’t ya’ think Ed here looks like a pussy like this? I buzzed his hair once when he was little. Poor thing acted like a traumatized him.” He gave a humorous laugh. Eddie only stared at him.

“You’re pathetic, boy.” His face grew hard and he practically spat in his son’s face. “Still livin’ with Wayne and still in high school, wasting’ your days with your shitty friends and that shitty board game you play. You think I’m a loser? Look at yourself for shit sakes!”

Eddie willed himself not to cry, but his heart was racing and swelling with a deep panic and rage that he hadn’t felt since he was a young teenager. His knees were weak and he felt glued in place. His tongue was heavy and his throat felt stuffed with cotton, brainy fuzzy and unable to handle what was happening. He shut down.

“Hey!” You barked, finally speaking up. “Watch your fucking mouth!” You stormed over to stand by Eddie and placed your hand on his arm, who held you back with his elbow “You don’t have any right being here!”

The man raised his brows at you. “No right?” He scoffed. “Ed, control your woman. Give er’ a smack across the face like I used to do to your momma.”

That was enough to snap him out of his trance, and you screamed, covering your mouth as Eddie lunged for him. He drew back and punched him straight in the jaw, pushing his shoulders back until they both collided into the kitchen table, collapsing atop of each other as things scattered and glass broke. You were screaming and gasping and yelling at them to stop, but you’d never seen Eddie so angry. You let out a sob when Eddie snapped his face over to the side with a hard punch delivered to his cheek.

You took off running toward the door, slamming it open and pouncing off the steps onto the gravel, screaming at the top of your lungs for help. You whirled around when bright lights hit you, and you ran in a panic closer, sobbing when you seen Wayne in the drivers seat.

“Wayne! Oh god, Wayne, help!”

“What? What what’s going on?” He jumped out of the truck and he followed after you when you took his hand and ran with him to the trailer, sobbing in hysterics.

The next few moments were a blur. Wayne had been shocked to see his brother there, but he didn’t allow that to cause him to falter. He shouted over the two of them and yanked his brother off of Eddie with his rough hands, dragging him out the door. Eddie was left in a pile on the floor, and you collapsed next to him, helping him up.

“Eddie, Eddie, oh my, god!” You grabbed his face, going up with him as he stood. His lip was cut and he had a bruise forming around his eye, but he looked completely lifeless.

“Are you alright?” His voice was shaking, and he spoke in a low, emotionless octave. He tried looking you over but he couldn’t keep his eyes focused.

“Yes, yes, I’m fine, baby.” You rushed, stuttering slightly over your words. “Come on, sit down.” You pushed him back down onto the couch, grabbing his hands as you tried not to blubber in front of him. “Eddie, are you okay? God, I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry, baby.” You couldn’t help but cry despite your efforts.

He wasn’t speaking. He kept his eyes glued to the collar of your neck glazed away in a daydream, hidden from the world and with it, his father. His breathing was hitting the top of your lip erratically, and you could see his nostrils flaring heavily, eyes wide and dry with tightening knuckles.

“Eddie?” You asked concerned, eyes crinkling at the sides. “Eddie, talk to me, are you okay?”

His shoulders started to shake and his face went pale.

“Eddie.” Wayne’s voice tore through the home and you were softly pushed away from him by your shoulder, and you stumbled back in shock as the man crouched below his nephew. “Hey, bud you’re alright. Work through it, it’ll pass.”

“Wayne,” You said painfully, trying to reach out. “What’s going on? Is he okay?”

“I’ve got him, honey.” He gave you a brief glance, holding out his hand to you. He didn’t want to be rude, but they needed space. You brought up your nails to bite, crying, as you leaned against the wall while Eddie went into panic mode.

He was still staring at one spot, eyes now spilling tears as his lips trembled and spewed out little whimpers. He was shaking and vibrating, face colorless as he gulped and swallowed so loudly you both could hear it.

“Breath, Eddie.” Wayne held his wrists. “Remember to breath. Breath and it’ll pass.”

He started sobbing, and you covered your mouth as hard as you could in complete shock and heart ache. Wayne held his shoulder and the back of his neck, his curls shaking from the weight of his broken, wheezy sobs that stained the fabric of his jeans. Wayne moved up to the couch when he started coughing violently, holding him up to his side as he doubled over and gagged, dry heaving out sobs and cries.

It was too traumatizing. You turned on your and once again, bolted for the door. You slammed it, holding yourself close as you hysterically cried to yourself. You had no idea where his father went, but his vehicle was no longer there. And god, you hoped he wouldn’t be coming back. Tonight only proved to you how sensitive this topic was, how fragile Eddie was when it came to his childhood. What you witnessed inside had scared you.

You were out there for nearly forty five minutes, shivering and lips nearly blue from the September weather. You were sat on the porch step, chattering your teeth away. You were almost too scared to check on your boys. Soon, the door creaked open and you jumped up to see a very, very tired looking Wayne.

“Is he-”

“He’s okay.” Wayne beat you to it, nodding as he looked at your dried tear tracks. He sighed heavily and leaned against the railing where you stood. “He’s not had one of those since freshman year. Forgot how scary they were.” He thought silently for a moment before he turned to you. “Are you okay?”

You shook your head. “Not really no. Where is he?”

“My brother?” Wayne raised a brow. “Gone. He ain’t coming back, believe me. He only comes around when he wants something and he got it. Jus’ wanted to mess with Ed’.”

Your eyes blurred with tears again. “What do I say to him? I don’t want him to get mad at, but I want to help.”

“He’s never mad at you, kid.” Wayne assured, taking out a cigarette and lighting it. “He’s just difficult at processing stuff, especially when it comes to his daddy, but he’s never mad at you, darlin’.”

You looked out to the empty trailer park, your cheeks shining in the illuminated light above you. “Is he ever going to talk to me about his…well, about everything? I can see how much it bothers him.”

Wayne’s heart swelled with guilt at his nephew’s suffering, and he gave a slow nod. “He will. In time.”

When you found Eddie sat on the edge of his bed, bandaid on his cut chin and eyes dark and sullen in, you moved slowly inside to crouch between his legs. He looked so fragile and broken, so pale and traumatized. He looked like a wounded animal. You so wished he would open up and talk to you, but you knew that wasn’t what he needed. Cupping his cheek lightly, his tearful eyes found yours and you shared a delicate look that said a thousand words. You lifted yourself up to your knees and wrapped your arms around his back in a tight, suffocating hug.

“I’ll be here when you’re ready.”

I fear to stain your clothes with blood/Stain them. I don't care

Chapter 1

Look.

Maybe Wilbur didn't love going to camp.

Maybe he would whine, and complain, and annoy the crap out of Phil and Techno on the 3-hour car ride.

But! 

That did not mean he hated it. 

Sure it was far from the most enjoyable experience in the world. 

But sue him, the kids gave him some small shred of hope for humanity that he was oh so desperately lacking. 

It also helped that Tommy adored Camp Essempi. He had practically grown up there, been tagging along every summer since he was 7 after Phil bought the place. 

So now Wilbur found himself in his dad's grey van, listening to The Artic Monkeys at a very unhealthy volume, while he could see Techno gesturing in the seat in front of him. 

If he had to guess, Tech was probably monologuing about some new book he read or what he was planning for the campers or something.

Wilbur didn't really care. 

Tommy was directly next to him, and his head was now resting on his shoulder, where it had been slowly creeping toward for the past hour, in spite of him claiming, "Fuck you Wil! I'm not tired at all bitch!"

They really needed to work on his swearing problem.

But that was for another day. 

Right now Wilbur had to worry about how to stay sane with 2 more hours left on this car trip.

He debated trying to read a book he brought but considering the last time he'd tried reading a book in the car they'd had to pull over so he could throw up, he decided not to risk it. 

Listen to Techno rant? Wilbur thinks he'd rather take the vomit at that point.

He eventually just decides to take the easy way out. 

Turning his music down slightly, he lays his head on top of Tommy's, stretching the blanket he'd been hogging across them both, and letting his eyes shut. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By the time he woke up, they were only 30 minutes away from camp, and Tommy was still dead to the world. 

Techno had fallen asleep at this point too, his head lolling so his long hair fell over the edge of the car seat.

How he lived with it that long Wilbur would never know. 

He removed one of his earbuds and was met with the soft sound of Here Comes the Sun drifting from the radio, Phil humming along quietly. 

A few seconds later, his dad looked up and saw him awake. 

"Oh Wil!" Phil said, smiling, "Didn't see that you were up. We stopped at McDonald's about 15 minutes ago and got some fries for you, figured you'd be hungry."

Wilbur immediately brightened and maybe grabby hands at his father. 

"Gimme food," he said, with all the eloquence of a toddler. 

Phil chuckled and handed over the brown paper bag. 

"Save some for Tommy, you know he'll be starving when he wakes up, and who knows what that will entail."

Wilbur nodded solemnly, suddenly reminded of the last long car trip they'd taken. 

A few minutes into starting on the fries, he felt Tommy stir beside him. 

"Ugh, do I smell food?" Tommy asked, his voice slightly hoarse. 

"Always hungry never satisfied," said Wilbur, which was not entirely inaccurate. Tommy ate like a fiend. 

"Ey!" Tommy blurted out, his head immediately shooting up and his hands raising. "Just cus you're as small as a twig doesn't mean I have to be. Plus I heard Niki's running some of the sports stuff and I am NOT doing that on an empty stomach."

Wilbur had to give him that, Niki, one of his old camp friends and now first-year counselor, was one of the nicest people he'd ever met, but also incredibly badass. 

She'd been one of Techno's favorite campers, and he, in turn, had been her favorite counselor, which meant she was an expert in most combat-based camp stuff. 

She terrified Wilbur and Tommy alike. 

Techno too, but he would only admit that to her.

"Fine fine gremlin child take your food," huffed Wilbur, handing over the bag.

Tommy grinned evilly up at him and began shoveling the food into his mouth like an animal, a raccoon perhaps. Or maybe a possum. 

Wilbur couldn't help but grimace and turn his attention back towards his older brother and father, who, now that Techno had woken up too, were discussing camp setup. 

"Listen, Phil," one of Techno's quirks, he almost never called Phil dad. "We have more campers this year, we're gonna need to buy some more stuff."

Phil shook his head, "It'll be fine Tech. And if not, we'll go out and get stuff. And anyway, it's not so much supplies I'm worried about but space. I think we'll have to raid some of the unused cabins for cots. The last thing I wanna do is force kids to sleep on the floor, "said Phil, chuckling. 

"It would be good for them, " Wilbur chimed in, "Builds character."

Phil laughed. 

"C'mon Wil, let's not give them scoliosis too early on in the summer."

"As I just stated, character building."

"Wilbur I swear to god."

The last 20 minutes of the drive were spent bickering about random topics or singing along to Hamilton.

The latter was, of course, Wilbur's request. 

But Tommy joined in too. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The sudden sound of crunching gravel alerted Wilbur to their imminent arrival at Essempi, a sound that bore equal parts joy and pain in his mind. 

It was at this point Tommy began bouncing off the walls, it was honestly a miracle he's lasted this long.

Usually about 2 hours in they had to stop for 15 minutes and just putter around a gas station.

Fortunately, Tommy had stayed up late last night with Wilbur, going over rules and his luggage over and over again to make sure he didn't forget anything. 

But once rested, Tommy's energy made a full recovery, and as soon as they had gotten their luggage out of the car he was full-on sprinting towards their cabin. 

Wilbur however, did not not follow so eagerly. 

Unlike Tommy, car trips didn't make him stir crazy, but rather tired, lethargic, and dead on his feet.

So, grumbling, he hoisted his backpack over his shoulders and grabbed his duffle, before trudging down the path behind his little brother. 

It didn't take long for his dad and Techno to catch up, his older brother giving him a small pat on his shoulder before moving past. 

Phil on the other hand, fell into stride alongside Wilbur and started humming Dear Theodosia, one of his favorites. 

"How are you feeling Wil?"

The words startled him, he hadn't exactly been expecting conversation. 

"Uh, fine?" he said, with a slight question in his tone. 

"I mean, a bit tired but nothing horrible."

Phil nodded, "OK. Just let us know if you need anything."

Wilbur couldn't help the small sigh that escaped him. 

He understood that his dad meant well. That he genuinely cared and wanted to help. But this was not what Wilbur needed. 

He never did well at the whole talking about your feelings thing. That was definitely Phil's department, and something he always encouraged in his kids. But somehow Wilbur never got the hand of that particular skill.

He didn't think any of them did really.

But he didn't say this, or anything remotely similar. 

Instead, he just nodded and said softly, "Alright, thanks dad."

Phil smiled, laid a hand on Wilbur's shoulder, gave a small squeeze, and then he was gone. 

Wilbur paused for a second, looking around at the slowly darkening sky, where the first glimpses of stars were visible.

He glanced at the trees, shaking in the slight breeze that was making him glad he wore a hoodie.

And finally, he looked back down the path, where beams of warm light could now be seen.

Wilbur took a deep inhale, readjusted his bag, and continued walking.

It was gonna be a long couple of months.

Firefox Quick-setup (5 steps !)

for everyone considering the switch to Firefox: here's your 101. we're going for 'sweet spot' privacy/convenience* here. minimal steps, maximal result.

the steps:

download Firefox, install and run

disable data collection, verify Total Cookie Protection is on

(optional) import settings from your old browser

switch from Google to DuckDuckGo

install uBlock Origin and Privacy Possum

*aka "i hate targeted ads but i'm not Snowden"

details below the cut !! also, optional steps for more privacy d:

step 1: download Firefox, install and run

windows and mac: click the link to the download page linux: use your distribution's software manager/app store (or package manager) to install firefox if it doesn't already come with your installation

it should look something like this when you open it

step 2: disable data collection, verify Total Cookie Protection is on

type about:preferences into the address bar and press enter. there's a ton of settings here to explore at your leisure, but we want to head to the Privacy & Security tab and scroll down to Firefox Data Collection and Use

here we want to untick all the highlighted options - this stops Mozilla from collecting data about how you use your browser and from running studies (aka trying out new features on you if you "meet the criteria")

step 3 (optional): import settings from old browser

the exact method varies based on firefox version, but you can look here or use this general method: open the bookmark manager/library with the shortcut CTRL+SHIFT+O, click Import and Backup, then choose Import Data from Another Browser to grab your browsing history and bookmarks.

step 4: switch from Google to DuckDuckGo

there's little point avoiding Google's browser if they can still track you via your searches. go back to about:preferences, but this time choose the Search tab. change your Default Search Engine to DuckDuckGo

step 5: install uBlock Origin and Privacy Possum

it's extension time !! c: there's tons to choose from, but we're just focused on the basics. uBlock Origin will block ads and trackers, and works well with Firefox's TCP feature. Privacy Possum sends false data back to trackers (great for any that fall through the cracks).

just click on the links above, then click Add to Firefox and to the prompts that come up

that's it !! there's tons of addons and themes to explore over at addons.mozilla.org, from VPN integrations to tab management and much more.

You're done

happy browsing !! i'll include a companion post w/ more advanced features/tweaks and a collection of my personal favourite addons and links to other people's addons lists !! i'll also try to keep this post updated (and include a patch note reblog) should things change.

for anyone serious about privacy, it's worth mentioning that the more tools directly included in Firefox, the less privacy addons you need to run. uBlock Origin and Privacy Possum should go a long way now.

[ID: ten cartoony digital drawings of animal characters. 1. an anthro sparkledog character from the waist up. they are a white floppy-eared dog with yellow blush markings and red freckles. they have round eyes with yellow irises and red pupils. one eye has eyelashes on upper lid and the other has eyelashes on the lower lid. they have human-like hair in a short style, except for raccoontails on the sides. the main hair is split dyed red and blue, and the raccoontails are the same colors but with yellow stripes. the character is wearing a red and yellow striped jumper with sleeves that cover the character's paws, black overalls with one of the straps falling off, and a black collar with yellow stripes. the character has an open-mouthed smile, showing one upper tooth, and they have one paw raised in front of their body. 2. an anthro sparkledog from the thighs up. he has an average body type, with top surgery scars on his chest, a missing right hand, semi-floppy ears, and feral nipples on his stomach. his base fur is gray tricolor, but all over his back and tail are cyan, yellow, magenta, and fuchsia spots. he has a black hair tuft with a magenta and blue striped streak, a yellow and magenta nose, and cyan inner ears. his eyes are round, with three thick blue eyelashes on the outer edge of each, and one iris is yellow while the other is magenta. he is wearing a black and white checkered bandanna. his missing hand raised and his other hand down by his hip. he has his teeth showing and lips pulled back in a grimace or frown, and one eye is squinted and squished. the piece is heavily shaded from the upper left. 3. two anthro characters from the waist up, laughing together. both characters are grinning with their eyes closed, and both have fairly average body types without prominent busts. the character on the left is a pale green wolfdog with darker green ears. she has straight white shoulder-length hair with bangs, cut in a spiky style. she is wearing a striped dark green t-shirt over a white long-sleeved shirt, a bright green spiked collar, a silver chain with a cross on it, and a silver earring with a cross on it. her head is turned in profile, and she has one hand raised in front of her chest/neck. the second character is a white possum with black ears and dark gray markings on her snout and eyelids. she has drippy black eye makeup. she has short spiky white hair with pink streaks in it, and black and pink raccoontails on the sides. she is wearing a black sweater with indigo flames on the bottom, and has several ear piercings, one of which has a razor blade dangling from it. she has her head tilted downwards and her body is slightly hunched with laughter. 4. a bust of a furry creature. he has a canine body structure, but no nose pad, and evenly sized triangular teeth. he has a mane on the back of its neck and a long tapered tongue with an arrow shaped tip. his head and mane are red, his body is black, and he has white stripe markings on his snout and eye, and dot markings on his chest. his eyes are black with white spirals, his inner ears are white with black stripes, his teeth are black, and his tongue is white with black rings at the end and a red tip. he is smiling with his mouth open. 5. an anthro wolf from the hips up. she has gray fur and a lean body. she has human-like hair that is styled like a mohawk in front but is long and goes all directions in the back, striped in dull red, yellow, blue, and black. one of her eyes is yellow and the other is blue, and she has two triangular eyelashes on each eye. she has a nose ring and a plug in her ear, and she is wearing a gray graphic muscle shirt tucked into black pants, and a spiked bracelet on one arm. she is grinning toothily, has one hand raised up near her snout, and has the end of her tail barely in-frame behind her. her tail is striped like her hair.

6. an anthro hyena from the chest up. she has human-like hair, an average body type, and a moderate bust. her fur is brown with typical spotted hyena markings, with the addition of freckles on her cheeks. her hair is brown in the back, but purple in front, and is styled with bangs and more length to one side of her face. she has teal eyes, with a single eyelash at the corner of each eye. she is wearing teal eyeshadow and a dull yellow t-shirt. she is smiling, has her head turned to one side, and has one hand raised, fingers resting on her collarbone. 7. an anthropomorphic alien axolotl character from the waist up. they have turquoise skin with a scale pattern on their head, and an indigo to violet gradient on their gills. they are thin and flat-chested, and the gills on the left side of their face are stripped, missing the feathery parts. they are wearing a green alien mask and a gray and blue hoodie with purple text on it that says "get fresh." they have their left hand raised in a peace sign. 8. an anthro fox-parrot hybrid in a simple style. she has a fully red fox head, and her body is covered by a dress that ambiguously doubles as folded wings. her dress has a yellow ring at the top, and three stripes or red-orange-red for the rest of it. she has one wing extended, and it it shaped like a triangle, but curved so the end is raised to wave at the viewer. it is yellow on top, and has pale blue flight feathers. 9. a dark gray cat with lighter gray on her ears, face, and neck, green eyes, and a jagged scar on her neck/shoulder. she has a grumpy expression. 10. a halfbody of a seated feral cat. she has long thick gray fur, with black on her neck and the top of her head, and a white face. she has a narrow brown eye, and one missing eye. there is a scar on her lip, and another on her shoulder. /end ID]

[sevicia]

alsooo list of things that have been making rounds inside my head for a while now:

1. ear ice pick

2. nostril spinning saw rod

3. the phrase "I'll stop stabbing when you stop screaming" bc it's kinda funny and I think I saw it on some Riddler fanart ??

4. the phrase "They'll keep finding your body for three months. You'll be alive for at least two of them." bc it's cool even if it sounds kinda edgy ykwim... it's from a post on here, I have it on my blag but I don't wanna look for it rn

5. the phrase "Mary pays in blood" which just sorta manifested into my brain one day & IDK if I saw it somewhere and then forgot WHERE I saw it but ya. And it's really kinda annoying me cause like who is Mary and what is she paying for and why does it have to be in blood.... Google is not telling me.

6. Off of that 👆 I had an idea of "Mary" (not 2 be confused w/ the Mary I just posted abt lol) being a girl who lives in a single very white room with a bed, a huge TV on the wall and the remote for said TV. The gist of it is that you start each "story" by flipping thru the channels and selecting one, but you are never the "true" protagonist in any of them. I was kinda stressing about having to forcefully come up w/ more than one short story for a single game cause my brain is Not That Big, but then I thought it'd be nice to just like. Take an existing side chara from an "existing" story (AKA one that I didn't force) and then do it from their POV if that makes senseeee.... just as a compilation/anthology thing maybe

7. the possum girl one that's a lot more about exploration and mystery-solving ETC but I think I already posted abt that one and the only thing I've added to it/expanded on is the girl's parents bc they are really funny n cute to me. & Also there's a guy with a flower shop now. & his sister owns a fashion boutique. And I wanna put a butcher shop in there as well cause when I go to the one near my house I rly like looking at the different signs they have around n stuff (those ones like "if you want a credit go to the bank‼️")

8. that one comic I made and then left half-finished (LOL) about my two loser guy OCs being literally physically incapable of getting bitches (gender neutral) and being absolutely COWARDLY about it was so so funny to me I keep thinking about them and about what other Situations I can toss em in

9. throat plumbing

10. one person getting stitched (like, physically and also in strange ways/places) to another except said other person is very much not into it. to say the least. kinda like human centipede but if it was two people and one of them was the one who made it happen.

11. open-wound stabbing which I think is pretty self explanatory but I started thinking about it more recently when I saw one of those videos where they've got like a bunch of balloons inside each other and then pop em by layers. which is not really similar to what I have in mind but it's what caused it.

12. kinda related to that 👆: the way blood pools inside wounds like I love splatter but there is something SO nice about seeing it come out slowly ykwim...

unlucky 13. kissing and being in love and hugging and kissing forever and ever AMEN🩷

#diary #oc talk #I always feel so edgy when I talk about stuff like this like I have to put a disclaimer that says ''I prommy I'm normal abt other ppl's #boundaries'' yk... #oc: mary #oc: paula #oc: alice #oc: dom

[vampyr3wife]

full peanut lore right now!!!!

Um it’s a lot

OKAY SO. Before there was Peanut there was Peanuts mom, Toffee. Peanut was from her last litter, she had three that I know of before she was able to be caught and spayed. 1 litter was born in my shed, and 2 litters were born under my house. As her second litter got older my friends finally trapped them, but Toffee was impossible to catch and she had already fallen pregnant again. We caught multiple possums and so many skunks that summer.

And then… there was Peanut and Cashew. Cashew was easy to trap. He literally walked his silly ass up to me one time when he was just an itsy bitsy baby. But Peanut was different, always such a skittish n shy girl. She was hard to trap like her momma, and she was pregnant at only like 4 months old. That’s how Souptin, Nom Nom, and Beanie came to be.

Soup was the first to be caught and was literally just chilling w us right away. The others were more timid, crawl space shenanigans occurred and eventually we caught Beanie. Beanie was a little angel.. she was born deformed with no tail and no butthole, probably because Peanut was so young and small. It’s amazing that she carried three kittens to term honestly, it was hard for her to be a momma so young and Toffee was picking up the slack.. After a couple days of trying to find a vet that could help her they decided it would be kinder just to put Beanie down. It’s a miracle she lived that long after all. Rest In Peace little Beanie.. she is cuddling the moon n getting kissed by all the stars.

If I remember correctly, Peanut and Nom Nom were caught together. Nom was a feisty little thing and took after her mothers shyness.. Soup and Nom Nom were reunited and adopted by my friends! They’re all grown up now and r such happy well socialized kitties. Peanut was too feral to be taken inside by anyone so she was returned to my house.

I started trying to officially make friends with her not long after. She was still young, feral, and very scared of humans. It took a long time for her to get used to me, we took many baby steps. Slowly we went from watching eachother across the yard to sitting together on the porch. She learned when breakfast and dinner was and she started getting excited to see me. She would rub up against anything around her and cry and I just knew she wanted love but she didn’t rlly understand.. but I’ve worked w her a lot and she absolutely adores pets now. She purrs like crazy and rubs up against me… back scratches and head rubs r her fav. She even follows me in the door to rub up against my legs n will run around in the laundry room… but that’s about as far as she goes.. for now.

I’ve explained to my landlord that I’m trying to slowly work towards her being an indoor cat and she seems okay with that after seeing how cute she is. So that’s a major win :) Go Peanut!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chapter 6

(This is leading up to the game Arkham City)

*Perse began to train with Batman with not only her powers but hand to hand combat

*She struggled a lot at first but eventually got the hang of it. Perse didn't really have to use hand to hand combat too much since she had powers but it was just in case she couldn't use them

*Perse is only allowed to do patrol with Batman doing simple things. Absolutely nothing dangerous.

*Sharks. she loves sharks. her favorite is a bull shark

*Don't even get her started on sailor moon. Perse watched all of it in 3 days. Her favorite is Sailor Saturn since she can relate to what shes went through.

*Music she really enjoys is goth and metal. Becoming a pastel goth girl.

*Skateboarding becomes a daily activity for her. Perses board is pink with black bats on it while the bottom has sailor moon stickers

*Cheese is her pet possum. It hates everyone except her

*The first fight Perse was in they were talking bad about Batman and her.

Perse and Batman were on the roof stalking some wanted thugs that were having an interesting conversation

Thug 1- "Have you seen that kid thats been with batman?"

Thug 2- "Not yet. Is she hot?"

Perse cringed at this while Batman was ready to pound them in the ground.

Thug 3- "I heard she was that Persephone girl? The one that killed some of our crew. Nobody is positive though.

Persephone..

she despised that name.

Perse jumped down and faced them all. A mask from the purge covering her face. She hasn't decided on a costume yet so she winged it.

Thug 2- "Hahahaaha whose kid is this"

Perse didn't respond and sent water strikes at them knocking them down. She walked over to the one thug that wasn't knocked out and stood over him.

Thug 3- "W-who are you"

"Kore"

Perse enveloped water around her fist and punched him knocking the bastard out.

Over time she did start to talk more to everyone but mostly just to be a smartass

Robin- "Perse! Do you have my grapple?"

Perse- "Of course I do! Since I use it all the time when you aren't around"

Robin-.......

Perse- :)

Barb will never forget the time she was showing Perse all the main villians when she pulled up Penguin and she started laughing out loud clutching her stomach. This was shocking to her because she hardly ever smiles.

"Why is he so short and fat? You could use him as a bowling pin"

Barb couldn't hold back her laugh which caused the attention of Dick and Tim.

Barb made you repeat the joke to them in between laughs.

The rest of the villians seemed boring to Perse but one stuck out

Harley Quinn

Perse was mesmerized by how stunning she looked.

"You good?" Dick asked and waved a hand in front of her face.

Geesh, had she really been staring that long.

Perse blushed and started hitting Dick.

"SHUT UP!"

Tim walked over to Barb while they were play fighting

"You think shes ya knowww"

"For sure"

Alright enough about Big Perse lets talk about little Perse

*She carries around the cape EVERYWHERE!

*Favorite person is Bruce ofc and loves everyone else equally

*Loves cuddling with everyone and eating goldfish

*Wears diapers sometimes but only when shes feeling very little

*Only lets Bruce and Barb change her

*Is very sweet most the time but will have tantrums sometimes

*HATES loud noises

*Doors slamming is a huge trigger and will make her slip very small

*Loves to pretend being a shark in the pool

"Bubba looks" Perse held up a hug shark stuffed animal Bruce just got custom made for her. It was dark pink and had her name stitched on the side.

Dick smiled and acted very suprised

"Wow! Is that your new shark?"

Perse nodded her head and smiled.

"Its very cute just like you princess"

*Favorite things to wear are pajamas especially her shark onsie

*Robin loves carrying her on his back while you shoot water at Dick. He lets you splash him in the end because he loves seeing you happy

*When it comes to Bruce you feel the most safe when hes Batman since thats when he saved you.

*Perse loves when he just holds her in the rocking chair and rubs her back. Its calming and helps her sleep.

*Just imagine Batman sitting on a cough with a little one bottle feeding them.

*When the rest of the fam saw it they almost screamed

*They were just too cute

Now that we got that out the way time for Perse in Arkham City!

Tour of the Valedores: John Garcia (formerly of Kyuss) Live at The Masquerade

John Garcia is a stoner rock/desert rock/heavy metal singer best known as the founding member and vocalist of several prominent bands in the desert/stoner rock genre: Kyuss, Slo Burn, Unida, and Hermano. Garcia has also performed with Vista Chino, formerly Kyuss Lives! (w/ former Kyuss bandmates Brant Bjork and Nick Oliveri), and John Garcia and the Band of Gold. One can say that Garcia has always kept himself busy within the music industry since starting his career with the legendary band Kyuss. Garcia’s discography is massive since he has participated in many bands over the years: Solo – three (3) LPs and one (1) split w/ Black Mastiff, Kyuss – five (5) LPs, Slo Burn – one (1) LP, Unida – two (2) LPs, Hermano – two (2) LPs, Hermano – three (3) LPs and one (1) Live record, Vista Chino – one (1) LP, and multiple guest appearances over his historic career.

Via his social media channels, Garcia announced on March 7th an ambitious tour that would feature Garcia playing songs from Kyuss, Hermano, and Slo Burn. The Tour of the Valedores would start in Madison on May 15th and conclude in Brooklyn at Elsewhere on May 29th. The Masquerade in Atlanta, GA. would host the Tour of the Valedores on May 19th and you know I would be there with camera in hand. For this tour, John Garcia’s band consists of John Garcia (vocals), John Bennet (guitars), Billy Cordell (bass), and Greg Saenz (drums). Garcia would call on some amazing artists to assist him with opening support on this tour; Jared James Nichols, Telekinetic Yeti, and Left Lane Cruiser.

Left Lane Cruiser is a blues rock/rockabilly/ punk blues band from Fort Wayne, Indiana formed in 2004. Left Lane Cruiser consists of Frederick “Joe” Evans IV (slide guitar/vocals) and Brenn Breck (drums/backing vocals) who are signed to Fat Possum Records. Left Lane Cruiser has released eleven (11) LPs since 2006 when they were previously signed to Hillgrass Bluebilly Records and Alive Records respectively. This would be my first time seeing Left Lane Cruiser live, and I was eager to see what they had to offer.

Starting the evening, Left Lane Cruiser kicked off with some bluesy rockabilly that got the crowd warmed up as they performed songs from their vast discography. This blues-rock hybrid duo knows how to get the crowd involved with their electrifying riffs and dynamic vocals. Left Lane Cruiser was the perfect band to kick off this celebration of John Garcia’s influential legacy.

Check out Left Lane Cruiser’s setlist from this evening’s performance:

·         “Wash It”

·         “Skinny Woman” (R.L. Burnside cover)

·         “Claw Machine Wizard”

·         “River Picker”

·         “Backyard”

·         “Turkey Vulture”

·         “Hillgrass Bluebilly”

Follow this link to Left Lane Cruiser’s Official Bandcamp page today and check them out! Or head to their website and pick up some merchandise from their online shop.

Telekinetic Yeti is a stoner/doom metal band from Dubuque, Iowa that has made heads bang since 2015. Telekinetic Yeti consists of Alex Baumann (guitar/vocals) and Rockwell Heim (drums). They are signed to Sump Pump Records and have released two (2) LPs with Primordial (2022) being the latest release. You may recognize Telekinetic Yeti from my review a few weeks ago, Weedeater w/ Telekinetic Yeti, Restless Spirit, & Possum Rot Live at Grantski Records (ICYMI). I was excited to see Telekinetic Yeti again so soon based on their last performance at Grantski Records with Weedeater.

Adding to the list of powerful duos in the stoner/doom metal genre, Telekinetic Yeti commands the stage when they perform live at any venue. Tonight was textbook Yeti as they pulverized their way through each song on their setlist. You could see some Telekinetic Yeti fans in the crowd enjoying seeing one of their favorite bands rip up the stage in Hell at The Masquerade.

You can see Telekinetic Yeti’s setlist from The Masquerade below:

·         “Ghost Train Haze”

·         “Abominable”

·         “Stoned and Feather”

·         “Ancient Nug”

·         “Toke Wizard”

·         “Himalayan Hymn”

Show them love and check out Telekinetic Yeti’s Bandcamp page to stream some of their music.

Jared James Nichols is a blues rock/hard rock guitarist/singer from East Troy, Wisconsin who is most notable for his finger-picking technique on his electric guitar. Jared James Nichols has released three (3) LPs, two (2) EPs, and four (4) singles since 2015. Jared James Nichols is accompanied by Ryan Rice (drums) and Brian Weaver (bass) during his live performances. This would be my first time seeing Jared James Nichols perform live, but I did do some research before the show to see what Jared James Nichols was all about. Wow. The energy and vibe that you see on recordings does not do Jared James Nichols any justice, because his live performances are more captivating with his wild style of guitar picking mixed with his entire band’s energetic performance. And to top it off, Jared James Nichols ended their set with a crushing cover of Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs”.

You can support Jared James Nichols by following this link to his official merchandise store or by supporting him through the Listenable Records official Bandcamp page today!

During the 90’s, I was fascinated with a few West Coast desert rock bands: Fu Manchu and Kyuss. The sound was not common during the 90’s, so I was intrigued with how loud they played but kept an invigorated and chill vibe throughout their discography. Kyuss broke up in 1995 and before I had a chance to see them play live. So, tonight was a special moment getting to see John Garcia performing songs from Kyuss and his other bands, Slo Burn and Hermano. Witnessing a legend perform his legacy live in front of you at The Masquerade with his friends backing him up is the stuff you tell your friends about. Plus, I cannot tell you the last time John Garcia came through Atlanta to perform, let alone take on the massive responsibility of performing songs from three of his influential bands.

John Garcia and his band arrived on stage and the crowd told them they were ready to rock! The time had finally come, and you could tell that the crowd was exhilarated as John Garcia and his band started their set with one of my favorite Kyuss songs “Gardenia” and proceeded to perform five more Kyuss songs in a row. Garcia brought out the songs “Cowboys Suck” and “The Bottle” from Hermano and “July” from his band Slo Burn. For an extra special treat, Garcia treated the crowd to “Dragona Dragona” from his days with the band Vista Chino.

John Garcia was very thankful and acknowledged gratitude for the crowd who came to rock out with him on a Sunday night in Atlanta. The funny thing is that I know we all thought the same thing about John Garcia and this tour. John Garcia rarely tours the East Coast, let alone the South. I know that this tour will go down as one of the best tours in 2024 hands down.

What a setlist curated by John Garcia and his band! Check out all the classics from John Garcia’s setlist from this tour stop at The Masquerade:

·         “Gardenia” - Kyuss

·         “Conan Troutman” (Outro) - Kyuss

·         “Hurricane” (Ending) - Kyuss

[until-the-brahmin-come-home]

Do you have a version of the Lone Wanderer? Feel free to infodump.

Aw, you guys are spoiling me :D

My lone wanderer is Samael Rafferty (and yes, they did change their first name to be edgy)

once again, the image was made from Bright’s Picrew Hell by @/Brightgoat. The horns here are an exaggeration - while they do start to grow horns after the water purifier, they’re pretty small.

Sam is...a lot. They’re standoffish and rude (2 CH), but they’ll help anyone who needs it. They mostly want to just be left alone, but they can’t not help people. They were a mechanic in the vault, and used this to get into places they shouldn’t with the excuse of needing to repair things. Their childhood in the vault is a bit of a haze, as they struggled with dysphoria, mental health issues, and a populace that they just did not get along with. Leaving the vault was the best thing that could have happened to them.

They’re difficult to get close to but extremely ride-or-die for the people they care about. They’re good with kids, animals, and robots, but pretty much everyone else is a no-go. They get the Almost Perfect perk towards the end of the game, which really messes with their head. They use melee weapons because they don’t like the distance guns create and how loud they are. Their main is a deathclaw gauntlet they’ve named Judgement, with 2:13 written on it (Referencing James 2:13, ”For judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy; mercy triumphs over judgment”). They also wield swords sometimes. They’re a mutant psychic vampire cyborg and a big fan of body modification.

After the events of 3 they fuck around the capital wasteland for a bit, raising their two adoptive daughters (Marie from The Pitt and Raziel (an oc enclave psyker experiment). After the events of fnv, Sam starts getting weird dreams about a beacon of light in a desert to the west, and take the spaceship (along with their daughters, pets, robots, and supplies) over to the Mojave. There they meet the Courier, the two get along well, and Sam becomes one of their inner circle.

More miscellaneous stuff under the cut

-Tattoos include an ouroborous encircling a halved apple, a deathclaw, radroaches and other insects, a possum skull w/red poppies in the eyes, centipedes over their top surgery scars, alpha and omega symbol on the back of their hands, left knuckle tattoos of the alchemical symbols for water/fire/earth/air, right knuckle tattoos of swords/cups/wands/pentacles, card suits under their eyes, 21:6 on their wrist, scythe with the blade aligning with their lower ribs, along the spine descending are: radiation, biohazard, electricity/lightning strike, flame, broken test tube, skull and crossbones, exclamation point, left forearm has cracks like broken glass with eyes peering through while the right has thorny plants, spider behind their ear, golden spiral, various quest-related tattoos (ex. Ufo, tree, ant spiral), and more that i haven’t detailed out. They have very little uninked skin at this point lol

-Moira is one of the few people they actually like

-Traveled almost exclusively with Dogmeat. They hung out w Butch in Rivet City but didn’t really go anywhere with him. Not sure about Charon because his whole deal is deeply uncomfortable to me and I still haven’t figured out how to handle it, but they probably did travel together at some point. Fawkes is chill.

-They sacrifice themself in the water purifier because they have some suicidal tendencies and feel like they must do it because both of their parents died for this; they weren’t expecting to live past their twenties, even in the vault. They’re doing a lot better now.

-Never take a job without payment, but what they count as payment can vary wildly (they once dealt with some raiders in return for a kitten)(they name the kitten Fishbone)

-5’ 3”

-left handed ambidextrous, which makes using the pipboy annoying

-They’ve picked up a few mutations. As mentioned, they’ve got small horns growing from their forehead, and they have tapetum lucidum (the material in eyes responsible for glowing in the dark), plus their teeth are pointy.

-Raised in a vault + ex-catholic + autism + extremely scientific manner of looking at things + read a lot of very old books + mimicry = the weirdest manner of speaking you’ve ever heard.

-their flip lighter has a moth engraved on it

-at some point they hack an eyebot and name it Pluto

-Hoarder, tends to pick up anything not nailed down. Won’t steal from people who are really struggling or who they like. Tends to only keep the most intact or valuable objects of a certain type and will gift the rest to other people. What they do keep is carefully displayed in their home - it's very much like a museum.

-Horse is named Barbie, short for Harbinger, and was a gift from the Courier.

-They were in love w Amata but that...really didn’t work out

-I have a whole playlist for them but one of the songs I associate the most with them is Honey I'm Home by GHOST; I specifically prefer the Umbra cover, but both versions are good

[all-things-succumb-to-decay]

Pangolin grass type starter

Roots for ears and underside of tail

Baby is Oblossum. Final evo is grass steel

The baby sticks it’s tail in the ground to like. Regain energy or heal. The middle form is that awkward teenage form where it’s got some over sized petal scales that cover its eyes like an over sized helm

Wooly bear caterpillar that turns into a cat moth cause Virgin tiger moth is what wooly bears turn into

Rhino beetle hyena big dark maybe?

It’s baby is a grub puppy

Water starter goes from like a leopard gecko to a ribbon eel dragon. Coral horns and bits. It’s sleepy and likes to put others to sleep

Final type is water psychic the baby form’s tail is like. Bubbles that are stacked on top of each other to mimic the fatty shape of gecko tails. The middle stage is kinda monitor lizard shaped with just ridiculous coral eyebrows

Fire ferret into fire couatamundi or what ever or like. Civet something long with a big tail that’s fire rock with lava and rock making the tail stripes baby fire ferret tail is a sparkler and the more excited it is the faster the sparkler burns down and when it burns all the way down the ferret just passes the fuck out and sleeps for 18 hours like a real ferret.

Spider with a grass knot or a tumble weed for a butt

Psychic beluga

A vaguely dragon flavored Whaleshark that is dark electric, a type I’ve always wanted to mess with. Basically it’s a whaleshark w a black hole inside of its mouth. I have a lot of fish and sharks I know so maybe I’ll do something else but definitely like the typing and the general concept.

Water grass type loch ness shape based on lotus flowers growing up above the muck

It’s baby form is just a little messy leafy plesiosaur or something

Fighting type babirusa 2 stage

Catnip cat

Shadow thing under blanket/coins/etc like has a mimic vibe it’s like mimikyu like u never see it’s true form it’s just little grabby hands that reach out from under the piles.

Thylacine fossil? Solo fossil like Aerodactl

Rock dark type. Has a long tail that it keeps curled up that looks kinda like an ammonite but it can unfurl so it can hang from things. Like I know possums don’t even really hand from their tails but it’s a marsupial like. Trope? Idk but it’s just to keep it from being an animal in design and more of a Pokémon

Coffee bean that is either grass psychic or grass dark

Grass fire incense Pokémon. Named Intsints kinda shaped like a porcupine, it’s tail is long and on fire like charmander and it lights it’s spines that are fragrant wood.

Rat king three stage. More rat? More rats. This one is gonna be pretty weird like it starts as a little rat with a ruffle around the neck then it becomes two rats connected at the tail like it’s almost a girafarig situation. Then the last one is a Cerberus style three headed rat that’s bipedal. Has three tails as well and the middle head probably has little horns that look like a crown or something. I feel like this is the least fucked up way I can do this tbh. The LEAST body horror.

Grackle to dragon pipeline final evo looks like it fucked a bedazzler. Very bird faced and feathered but also kinda wyvern shaped.

Honey pot ants that r like eevee so I’ve figured out how it works. The first evo or the ‘eevee’ is just a little normal bug type ant that is sort of fluffy and honestly has p good stats. It’s based on a velvet ant that. Yeah I know they’re not ants they’re wasps but it’s Pokémon please don’t @ me about this. Anyway in the ‘game’ there’s new fruits that are vaguely themed as fire water and electric like maybe the water one is a pun off watermelon. Anyway like u just have to feed ur little ant 5 of any one type of the fruit and it evos into a honeypot ant with that type.

Anubit solid ground type little bipedal little puppy that looks like it’s made of sand. Anubold is QUAD haha take that furry bait I bet you all thought this would be a fucken palette swap Lucario but NO it’s all fours and it’s ground rock and it’s very fast because rock types are usually slow but this one is gonna be like greyhound jackal shaped so zoomies.

Tenneric poison electric pikachu clone super cute but has the personality of the tv show pikachu. Like. Will be a problem.

Psychic olm pseudo legendary dragon

Starts as a little axolotl. Very fat an slow and honestly hard to train because they have rly bad stats. The middle form is vaguely cocoon shaped like lots of the earlier pseudo legendary dragons like tyranitar. It has a vague butterfly wing thing going on. The final form is. Slow. It has admittedly bad speed for a PL but it’s special attack is absolutely kooky. It’s very long and serpentine and has no eyes. Vaguely skeletal patterns along its body.

Mythic trope like celebi or victini that is a cuttlefish that changed type depending on the environment or the weather effects so like it would completely wreck a team built around sandstorm it’s a kittlefish like it’s tails are like the tentacles of cuttlefish and it’s eyes are OwO eyes it’s a cute baby cat. Like it’s kitten shaped and around it’s body length there’s a little drill like uh the fin around the mantle of the cuttlefish and then the kitten’s tail is actually the tentacles of the cuttlefish.

Fairy flying golden heron 2 stage maybe ghost fairy because like. They’re said to carry souls to the after life. The first form is kinda like an ibis, small and cute. Known to sing very beautiful but melancholy songs. It’s second form is tall and golden and almost raptor like to keep it from just being a bird. But anyway it’s songs are less somber than it’s previous forms and have a lilting hopefulness to them.

Grass whale. It’s like a hump back cause they’re my fave two stage. The first form is almost dog shaped because lmao u kno. Real life evolution. Pure grass or maybe grass water. Idk I think we need more pure types but grass water is neat. The final form is big

Two headed fawn that turns into the two headed unicorn like that one taxidermy

I want it to split apart and be connected by a spine and like ectoplasm and the girls get little ectoplasm unicorn horns and the boys get ectoplasm antlers

Lamb of tartary Pokémon 3 stage grass wife the 1st is like a little radish or cabbage like oddish middle stage is still mostly grassy but with little goat horns. The final is the furry bait I subverted with the Anubis Pokémon. It’s an anthro lamb with like cotton and wheat for the wool and it has little horns and a fat ass

There should be a water fighting type based off of a betta and the adult evo can have different color patterns assigned at random like Spinda yes I know another gimmick pokemon I’m sorry. The first stage a a liddol guppy with big big angry eyebrows

Fairy rock konpeito

Water steel hippocampus the baby form is just a little pony but with a dolphin tail the full stage is just like. A hippocampus or a Capricorn? I know somewhere on this list I say Capricorn but that’s basically just this but a goat instead unless I do something new which I might. Anyway it’s more dolphin or orca than fish so kinda thick tailed

Poison steel based on mercury. What body types don’t we have. I have a lot of serpentine and insect and like. General mammals. It’s basically like ditto so it’s amorphous but I can do something with it more creative than a blob. Ohhhh my gosh it’s a snail and it’s shell can mimic like a test tube or a thermometer vaguely.

Pure steel type that’s just a mailbox. They’re delivery Pokémon. The little red flags are on both sides and are like. Puppy ears.

Scarab beetle that imitates luxury balls when baby form. Adult form is opulent very fancy black and gold bug rock type

Solid dark type Minotaur two stage. The baby is just a liddol calf very cute and normal type. The full Minotaur is almost ghostly and shies away from light. It’s not quite upright almost a like. Werewolf shaped. Long bent forward neck and a shaggy mane.

Dark poison type two stage based on the shaggy inkcap mushroom. I want to avoid the human shape they did with uhhh what ever that one pokemon was but still have a fairy feeling. So maybe something like cradily. Like it’s mushroom shaped but maybe the top of the mushroom can open up into a mouth? Ok hear me out. Giraffe shaped. Shorter legs thoooooOkapi. It’s a mushroom okapi. The small form is like a baby giraffe tho like it’s neck can’t hold up it’s head and it’s always a little wobbly.

Also I want a fairy type that’s pure fairy because monotypes are actually p important to cannon Pokémon games anyway. Fairy type two or three stage. I can’t do the deer idea I had because now that’s the legendary basically. So like. Shooting star/sea angel. They’re like a little bit like willowisps in the first stage, and then they become like ethereal sea Angel or sea butterfly shaped fairies. Almost human but. Clearly not.

Split evo spider one is bug fairy one is bug dark both jumpers just the fairy is a peacock spider the dark is a bold jumper

Fire steel red river hog two or three stage. The final evo has huge steel tusks and steel hooves and maybe like. Steel bristles down back. Very beefy and cool.

I want a Pokémon that evolves differently if it’s in the wild vs if it’s caught and trained

And now that I’ve decided to make Pokémon based off my cats there we go like the base is normal and it’s a kitten like it’s a very small baby super baby tiny and if it’s caught as this baby and raised by someone it turns into a big soft normal flying but if it’s left to the wilds it becomes a normal fighting and it’s like. A Bamf

Hummingbird mouse griffin that’s flying fighting because grasshopper mice and hummingbirds are both so Aggro it’s a single stage, high speed and high attack but total glass cannon.

Gold orb weaver that can use a move like pay day that gets you money it’s baby form is often mistaken for gold nuggets it’s adult is gonna kinda look like a gold skulltula from Zelda, but like I want it to have long delicate legs and be kinda pretty.

Normal type that is a like. A harp like idk deer with harp antlers or something with strings between spines on its back idk idk

I kno I have a couple mushroom Pokémon already I think but like what about a lion with a lions mane mushroom for a mane tho

Like the region is already kinda apocalyptic feels so maybe it makes sense there’s a lot of mons that are kinda fungal. Idk. …

Make a quest beast that isn’t a giraffe

Mahoganbee. It’s not a bee it’s a mahogany wasp it’s a solo Pokémon and it’s bug and grass and it’s a friend

Water fairy solo Pokémon that’s a manta ray with like rainbow elements so like when it breaches the water it leaves like. The wrainbows in the air and idk I’m sleeping

An object Pokémon that’s a snake Made outta horse shoes. Solid metal but then the evo is steel dragon and you add spurs as spikes on the back to make it bulky and sharp

Also maybe a Capricorn cause like. Fish goat. Oh maybe a foil to the hippocampus

The difference is it’s water fire and it’s got big Ram horns that have steam vents and it has some inspiration from deep sea thermal vents and the weird worms that live around them like. The white and red ones.

Grass type that is a lion with a mane made of peacock feathers. Actually I can’t do this one the legendary is a lion now so I think this could be one of the fossils like. A frilled lizard with peacock feathers? Idk this one is on thin ice tbh

Shrimp horse. Water normal type. It’s a shrimp but it has hooves so. A little ugly and a little cute.

I already have Anubis so like I kinda wanna do set or like a typhonic beast so like the baby is pure dark and then the evo is dark electric or dark dragon but these also stay quad. Take some giant ant eater insp. As a secret shout out to Kingdom Hospital.

I Dont think there are any rock ghost Pokémon so like a ghost that is fused with a tombstone? Ough maybe a stego that has headstones as it’s back fins and it can have like a Celtic cross for its tail this isn’t a fossil Pokémon tho I don’t vibe with a fossil being revived just to be a ghost maYBE it’s Jersey Devil shaped. Like idk idk idk but I’m scheming this feels close

Regional variant one is a deaths head hawk moth and one is a Luna moth yeah like. I know another bug pair and another region exclusive thing. It’s my region I love bugs I’m sORRY

Ok but a fire type that is a lava lamp like maybe a giraffe with lava lamp neck or a Fox with a lava lamp tail

Baby bat that is normal type that just has a big honking nose like big v shaped nose it can’t fly yet it’s head is like the size of the rest of the body it’s all shnoz and all ears the grown up form has like frilly wings like a parasol

European starling that is flying steel because the gold on the wings the end form is steel fairy or psychic? Something what ever it’s gonna be spacey

Wait another shark that is water ghost and it’s a shark with ghost fins because of shark fin soup and let it be thresher shark shaped cause it will make it a little more unique

Psychic poison scorpion. The baby is bug poison. There’s eyes inside the claws and like the lore is that people use it as a psychedelic. Is that too much for a Pokémon game? Oh well I guess.

Rock water type that’s like. The baby is a grotesque and it’s just rock but the gargoyle is rock water because. Architecture. Idk.

The regional rodent is raccoon based and it gets more rabid looking as u go. It starts normal but it ends up electric type because l bet everyone is gonna guess it’s dark type but nope it’s electric

A pair of pokes that’s like. One is a wolf in sheeps clothing one is a sheep in wolfs clothing. The wolf in sheeps is dark fire and the sheep in wolfs is grass fairy so they’re both effective to each other somehow

Pure water type that is a brittle star sea star that like. Walks around like u used to walk ur hand around U kno? Like it is just a little creachur

Legendaries maybe growth and decay themed so the decay legendary is mushroomy and the growth is flowery ofc But like what animals the third legendary is based on like the pure core of life and I want it to have a crazy god particle feel it’s got like a double helix tail and maybe horns oh maybe it’s a kirin. The decay Pokémon is maybe named Endrophy

Manticore Pokémon but instead of a human face it has a baboon face because I don’t like human mons and also baboons are cool as fuck. I feel like I have a lot of single stage so maybe this one has a baby form that’s just like a little normal type lemur

I want a shark Pokémon that’s fairy and very sweet because everyone loves dolphins and they’re shitty and sharks are good

Bug dragon that’s like. The frills of the face are the moth wings with like the eye spots like it’s. Complicated but it’s good it’s very cool ok I swear. The other bug influence is it has six legs otherwise it’s like. Very western dragon shaped.

Ghost that is a chameleon that is like. Glow in the dark skeleton idk maybe it’s body and shape is like made of smoke like the gengar line

Normal grass type that’s a terrarium. Maybe a turtle shape. I don’t want it to be too similar to torterra tho. So maybe a like. Bearded dragon because they’re kinda pancake shaped in the middle.

Ice type that’s like a wooly mammoth but no. It moose. Wooly moose.

It’s probably got a first evo that is like some sorta little baby yak that’s just a shuffling carpet of fur with yak horns that are low enough to be ground level. Like. They are little snow plows or something.

I want a white rabbit with red eyes that looks at first glance very fairy type but it’s actually dark/fighting type and it’s not a rabbit it’s a hare so it’s inherently rly fucked up the baby form of it is like a little puff ball dust bunny or mochi bunny or something that’s strict normal

Firefly shooting star Pokémon it’s bug lightning the baby is just a little sparkle star the middle is a uhhh it’s a rock like it’s a meteor u kno and yeah shooting star firefly

There is a sheep Pokémon that is the like. Poster child for Delta Pokémon it’s a normal type but at any point u can take it to a Modico station and change its type and form. Like froufrou or what ever it was called. It’s a sheep because of dolly the cloned sheep

I need a fire type that has spikes like maybe a stego? But basically the spikes are made of fire and like high intensity torch style flames so they look sharp

Abrice the ice psychic abra and koldabra there isn’t a third evo because the psychic power is dampened

Fairy fighting or flying fighting swan that is based on like. Swan lake and also the fact that swans are so fucken scary

Rock water type that idk what animal shape but it’s got like drippy fur that’s actually strings of crystals that are shaped like water drops it’s. A complicated concept but it’s fine. It’s fine it’s ok I’ll work it out. Maybe it’s like a kelpie but with a croc face.

The evil corp is called Modico Corporation

They front as a company of good will and change progress etc etc I feel like because I know how people are and I know that if I had a chance I would absolutely give myself a tail or like cat ears like. Yeah I feel like there’s a trend of people getting modded to have like eevee ears and pikachu tails. So like now that Pokémon games have character customization I could see you going to Modico buildings in different cities to get different Pokémon parts. Like I’m not gonna add this to the region probably because I feel like people would shit themselves about it especially a certain YT channel but what ever it’s fine. I’m just saying it would be very much a thing people would do.

The evil _team_ like the grunts and the shady gang that is connected to Modico but like secretly is called Team ChimeRNA

Cause like. DNA and rna like. And they’re doing gene splicing. Anyway team Chimerna are notorious for causing a lot of damage when ever they go on a rampage and often steal Pokémon so people assume they’re just a less organized team rocket but turns out the truth is team chimerna are literally just there to cover up when ever a Modico experiment escapes or goes crazy. Like they just destroy everything to destroy evidence that would leak back to Modico. Most of team chimerna are a lot more capable than they let on so people don’t get wise to the methods behind their madness

Some of the original canon pokes u can catch you can also take to a Modico station ‘modicubes’ that are like in Pokémon centers and stuff anyway u can take them and some you can change to like Entolian Forms and some you can just change their types. Not all can be changed like there will only be like 20 or so and the company says it’s because cracking the Genome of different Pokémon takes time because Pokémon vary so widely.

U can see delta Pokémon in the wild as well tho it’s not common. When a Pokémon is delta variant it has a different color or pattern so it’s like easy to see. It’s kinda like finding a shiny but it’s not that rare. They also don’t sparkle when u find them just different colors. If u breed a delta there’s a percentage that u can breed a delta. Some Pokémon can only get one delta type but some have like idk maybe three options. It’s not like. U can take any Pokémon and add any element. That’s what Modico wants but they’re not there yet.

The region is a series of islands. Not like Hawaii more like. Iceland and Greenland and like. A third idk. Anyway most travel is don’t by bird like that’s the fast travel mechanic and it’s by a giant condor themed bird that also takes flavor from bearded vultures. The babies are a sit stupid cute but useless. They’re dodos. Like I almost want to make the islands connected by crazy wild ‘roots’ that turn out to be mycelium but you walk across them to get from one to the next but then like the surfing Pokémon mechanic would be useless? Idk idk idk.

I need a thistle Pokémon. It’s my fave flower? Why don’t I? Like a little nondescript mammal with a lot of thistle spikes and a big fluff butt like a thistle flower. Maybe a capybara?

Dumbo octopus rock type it’s like a bat it flies with its flaps it’s so good and cute

So I have a few redundancies like several sheep adjacent and sharks and so many bugs and like this is a valid issue I’m admitting I have, it’s clear I have preferences but like if I don’t end up diversifying I can just say that it’s because right after a mass extinction there’s often less diversity as like. Existing species start to fill now empty niches. Like a weak excuse but like it’s a fakemon region that’s like FOR ME so.

So three islands that are the main path the gym challenge takes, there’s a handful of islands that only appear at certain times when the waters recede. This is where you can find nuggets pearls etc as well as some rare Pokémon. Not the legendaries cause that would suck having to wait wait. It’s a cluster of small islands that have a lot of mangrove trees and ancient ruins scattered around as a little story hook showing how grand the world used to be. I want it to be kinda solemn and quiet in tone like it’s still a Pokémon game but my fave parts of early Pokémon games were lavender town and the burnt tower like these. Stark and quiet places. Something bad happened. But it’s important to remember. I think it was a like natural disaster cause it prolly wouldn’t be cool to have Pokémon go through nuclear winter. Tho. It would explain why there’s like so many weird ass Pokémon … maybe It was something like. A Pokémon that absorbed infinity Energy at such an advanced rate that it became unstable and it like. Fractured and the energy released was like a nuclear fall out and it warped a lot of the Pokémon in the region. Like eevee is said to have weird dna so maybe the unleashed energy altered Pokémon dna around the region and made it less stable

Unrelated to anything but since my self insert is the big type elite four. Page gets a self insert that is the dark elite four

Nine can be steel type and holl can be psychic. She’s blind and has a seeing eye psychic Pokémon because that’s cute. Hell can be the last gym leader that’s dragon type

Town and island names

Whole region: Ento Region

First Island: Ourasph island (named for Ourasphaira. The oldest known fungi)

Towns:

Willowbark Town: first town. Named for willow tree bark that has medicinal properties. Ties in theme of healing and recovery. Small and fairly rural town that is right next to a marsh with lots of willows and a river. The marsh is kinda like a viridian forest. A place to catch some different Pokémon than u would see just on route 1’s tall grass. The town has a small community, a Pokémon rehab clinic which is actually where you get your starter. The region’s Pokémon professor works here and lives right next door. Her name is Prof. Maple and her wife is Prof. Laurel who is the more tech savvy prof who gives you a Pokédex.

There’s a person who will plant berries for you in their garden here and this is a way to get the berries that evolve the ants.

Echinacea city:

Barely a city but it’s got it’s pride. This is the first gym, fighting type. There’s a Pokémon center here and also an arena that is being built. After u ‘beat the game’ you can come back and challenge harder versions of npcs that u have already fought.

Amaranthe:

Staghorn:

Second island: Pleuro Island (named for Pleurotus aka oyster mushrooms. The fastest growing mushrooms.

Nova Sotis: a play off of Myosotis which is the name for Forget Me Nots. I almost just named this town forget me not but maybe that’s on the nose idk. Anyway. This is the first city you come to on the second island and this is where you first see how much damage was really caused In the Event. While the first island is slightly overgrown and there’s a lot of Buildings that are seen abandoned and ruined, this island is desolate. This island wasn’t hit with overgrowth it was drained of life by the unicorn. Nova Sotis is a port and more of a city than a town or village. There’s kind of a lot happening here as it’s a turning point in the tone of the ‘game’. There is a memorial shrine here and it’s sort of like Pokémon tower in lavender town, it’s a place of reverence and remembrance. This city also has a library where u can read up on the lore and get some details on the legendaries and the Event. Either in the library or as a building all it’s own there’s a small museum like there was In pewter town. This is where u revive fossils and buy ‘souvenir replicas’ of some of the items for Pokémon like the griseous orb or the ancient sword. Idk if Like any of these pokes are gonna be in the region but I’ve always liked the idea of finding a real relic in a kitchy souvenir shop.

Coriolis Valley-

Third Island: Clados Island (named for Cladosporium, a radiotrophic fungi found in Chernobyl.)

The elite four is here there is ofc the victory road. Idk what else there might be.

Lore

There were two eggs. One black one white. One produced tons of infinity energy to you know. Help the world thrive. One absorbs infinity energy to keep things from. Idk exploding like keep things from going too off the rails.

Somehow the absorption egg (black one) is cracked. Damaged. It starts pulling in more and more and more. It hatches. It’s beautiful and looks like a regal lion that’s primarily pink and gold and white but it is actually, despite its pure look, the destructive Pokémon. It’s covered in black thorns and spikes like briars that haven’t been pruned.

When it hatches so does the white egg. It’s a deer like unicorn that is delicate and fragile looking. It’s covered in mushrooms and looks like absolutely rotten. The lion egg took too much and while once it was the source of infinity energy and grown it’s now been used up and is just a shell of itself.

At first glance people look at the lion and assume it’s like a protector etc but it’s corrupted, too full of infinity energy that everything it does is fueled by its anguish. Like how mega evo is said to hurt and make Pokémon aggro. Same same but different. The lion isn’t a killer it doesn’t hate people it’s just too beefed up. The unicorn tries to sequester itself away because where ever it goes it seems to wither grass and cause rot as it’s body tries to like. Stay alive after what was taken.

The eight badges also come with shell fragments. The gym leaders all kinda mention like. Idk these have been passed down or this came to me to keep but for some reason I feel like I need to give it to u etc. the 9th fragment comes from like. Maybe the prof or a rival. Anyway you put the bits all together and make a special pokeball to catch the lion to let it rest and become uncorrupted or you catch the unicorn and like let it regain its former strength and then u fight the other and can like use the master ball on it or what ever.

I’m debating on them having ‘pure’ forms after you heal the one you catch in the egg like the lion becomes it’s true form where it’s all ghostly and dark but still like. Regal and now it’s in balance so it doesn’t sap life like the corrupted unicorn does. And ofc the unicorn becomes floral and soft and it emits like gentle light because it’s no longer corrupted and now it’s back in its proper role. But people might like the forms as they are so maybe it’s like with the griseous orb for giratina and the Pokémon only changes appearance when holding it. Like that way u can still get the story plots but people can choose if they want the rot unicorn or the flower unicorn for their team.

The theme of the region is like.

Building after disaster. It can probably be seen as an allegory for healing after trauma or disaster. Like it’s been some 150-200 years since the egg cracked and there was like the explosion of infinity energy where the lion basically. Took every last bit the unicorn had which like. It should have been limitless but the lion just stole it all so fast it like snuffed out the flame of growth or what ever. And in that instant when both Pokémon became corrupted it like. Destroyed 3/4 of the region. Now in the present the two Pokémon have gone into hiding and people are rebuilding and like the towns are bustling and the world is starting to heal but there’s scars. There are still places that the unicorn lingered too long in that are basically like Chernobyl. Dead zones. Wastelands. Some barren some full of fungus and warped trees. The places the lion razed are too overgrown with too much energy buzzing within. Like homes covered in kudzu and trees bursting up through the hearts of sky scrappers. So like you get to see both sides of disaster u kno but mostly. People are just trying to rebuild. The Pokémon league remains mostly as an echo of tradition but it’s purpose is also to train Pokémon trainers who are strong enough to protect the people if the lion or unicorn (depending on which version ur playing) ever wake up.

There’s the evil company or what ever tho that, like it says up there, wants to fuse people and Pokémon so the people themselves can defend against what ever and also because it’s a Pokémon game; for money and to take over the world.

What would happen if the reader were adopting this seemingly harmless kitten hybrid and they act like a cat hybrid enough, and do normal human-cat things for a while until they come into heat, or even before that, and things go from 0-100 real fast. Maybe this hybrid wants more from its owner to the point it becomes a yandere?

A/N: I legit got a similar request on Quotev, w/ someone asking for a body affirmation/self esteem cat-human hybrid fluff 😭 So.. as my duty to the people, I must clash the two and provide >:).

TW: Implied sexual relations 👀, possessive behaviors, (not smut) dubcon, cat/human hybrid, self esteem issues, just mostly all around fluff but there is a bit of self hatred

Female! Human-cat hybrid X GN! Reader

Things with your new... "pet," started off normal. Sure, it wasn't super common to have a human-cat-animorph thing as your roommate, but there were weirder things to come across. The cat girl who made herself comfortable in your house wasn't really a pet nor a rent-paying roomie.

In all honesty, she was more of a moocher. She mooched off your food, air conditioning, bed, and even your Netflix subscription! The gal didn't pay for anything-- even though by government standards she could technically obtain a job.

While you went out, slaving away at a poor excuse for a job, she stayed home, eating prime, high quality tuna, and sleeping on your comforter.

Often, you'd come home to see her snuggled up on the couch with a weighted blanket and remote in hand. The only thing you were paid back with was dead rodents.

When she wasn't perusing the internet or sleeping, she would go out into the yard, and look for bugs or small animals-- anything she could take on that you would certainly "find appealing." At least that's what she thought.

Even though time after time you told her that the dead possums and rabbits on your doorstep were NOT necessary and were GROSS, she didn't seem to get it. Or rather, care.

That's how it has been for the past 2 months. Quiet, coming home to a house with fur and dandruff everywhere, and a messy bed. It was certainly annoying, but not enough to make you kick her out; you couldn't do that no matter the person or animal! Persanimal, in this case.

Even though she was tiring to clean up after, you knew she did her best to provide you companionship. Finding her in that alleyway, drenched and skin and bone, was probably the best day of your life; she's been helping you through thick and thin, especially through the days where you contemplate murdering your boss and coworkers.

Life's been hard; but your cat-person is slowly making it more bearable. And it's not like she ever did harm or weird things-- at least that's what you thought until tonight.

"Come onnnn play with me!"

"Silva, no. I need to finish this before tomorrow morning-- if I don't, Gary'll have my head on a stick. Do you want my head on a stick? " You turn to look at her with raised eyebrows.

Silva pouts, scrunching her nose at you. "Oh boo! You'll be fine. And I'm not asking for all night-- unless that's what you want. " She looks at you suggestively, scanning your tired form up and down.

"As if." Pushing her head you force her to roll over, almost off of the bed. Silva makes a groan, a noise between human and animalistic.

"I'm bored! You're so annoying. I'm stuck in this house all day with nothing to do and you won't even pay attention to me. "

Silva pouts, her hands crossed against her chest. You could feel a tail flick against you, her feline ears slightly jutting out.

You sigh out of frustration, and at the fact that you wanted to give in. It was so straining to work-- it'd be nice to just lay down and sleep.

Rubbing your temples, you put down the papers in your hand for a moment.

"I'm sorry Silva, the whole team has been thrown for a loop," you look over at Silva; her ears showing that she was listening. "I'm on a really tight schedule; besides, I don't think I'm more fun compared to sleeping." You let out a short laugh, trying to lighten the mood.

"I'll be the judge of that."

Silva jumps atop you, causing papers and files to fall onto your bedroom floor. The fluttering sound of all that hard work being smudged and tucked under the bed made your heart sink. The cat hybrid had you under her, your head falling snuggly onto the sheets. Silva sat on your waist, looking down at you with a mischievous grin.

"Silva!! What are you doing-- I need those files sorted by tonight! "

"No," she starts, an angry snarl showing off the rows of pointed teeth in her mouth. "I'm tired of this. I'm tired of your work, and you being too busy to even notice me. It's my turn. "

Licking her lips, you felt and saw Silva bend down with ease, lack of grace following her nips and grazes.

Her long and jagged nails were gentle, poking and prodding at your flesh as she pleased, moving to grip the sides of your abdomen. Silva's lips trailed from your rib cage down. Her sharp canines lightly pressed against your skin, making you shiver. She trailed lower towards the beginning of your pajama bottoms.

Her furry ears tickled against your skin, making goosebumps rise. Silva pulled against the fabric, hugging your hips with her teeth, tugging it down with might.

Before she got the chance to move further, you pushed her away, bringing your legs up to your chest and hugging them.

Silva let out a surprised grunt, rolling to the side of the bed.

Digging under the covers you rolled onto your knees, hugging the sheets closer to you.

"Don't do that!" You yelled, your voice muffled against the mattress.

"Do what?" Silva says, her voice rising in pitch. You can tell she's even more annoyed than before, her nails digging into the bed, pulling the sheets away from you.

"Don't like-- touch me like that!" You tried to pull the bed sheets back. "Its not funny when you play games..."

"But I meant it," Silva tries to lift the sheets off your head to no avail. "I want to touch you. To be with you. You're never home! " Gaining enough strength, the animal hybrid manages to pull the sheets off that were hiding you away. She grips your hand, tugging you to face her.

"What is the real issue here?" Silva asks. Her voice was full of frustration. Huffing, you ignored her concerned glare, with shame.

"This..." you look down at your body, Silva's eyes following your own. "I'm not proud of it. So when you touch me like that.." You grip your shirt, palms growing sweaty. "I just don't want you to look at it and feel the way I feel. I don't want you to be... disappointed. " Looking down, you see the realization hit Silva through her body language. Her grip on your arm loosens, but not by much.

She let's out a soft "oh," her tail pausing its flicking.

"So let's just drop it, it's sleep time anyway," you say with feigned cheerfulness. "Okay?"

Silva still has a hard look on her face, full of confusion and a bit of annoyance as she lays down. You pick up the few papers scattered across the floor, leaving them on a desk nearby for you to deal with in the morning.

Exhaustion hit you like a brick; it was already so late in the night.

Turning off the light, you shuffled into bed, letting the warmth comfort you.

Though the night and Silva's body next to yours was calming, a lingering discomfort still hung in the air. You felt the conversation with Silva on the topic beforehand wasn't truly over.

The ticking of a clock outside of your room filled the awkward silence, letting it blend in.

Without discretion, Silva turns to face you, her expression still struck with some sort of hard misunderstanding.

You stare back at her, quiet but listening.

"I don't understand. I can act like I do, but I don't. You're telling me you don't like yourself? "

Shrugging, you avoid her gaze, feeling the shame bubble up inside you again.

"It's just-- I don't want you to not like what I look like.. I feel.. gross. I don't want you to see me that way. " You felt yourself shrivel up, body physically curling.

Silva didn't respond, instead deciding to use a method of attack. Ruffling under the bed sheets she tackled you, forcing you both underneath a mess of blankets. Through the darkness, you could make out the features of her face: and she did not look happy.

Her jaw was clenched, slit pupils turning into thin lines.

"That's such bullshit! Are you kidding me? Is this what you fill your head with every day?"

Her anger turned soft when she noticed your guilt ridden cringe.

"... really?"

You bite at the inside of your mouth, feeling tense at such a confrontation. You didn't think you'd ever have a conversation about self-esteem with Silva. She was already naturally so sure of herself; you didn't expect her to be the one calling you out.

Her fingers gripped your face quickly, the touch gone as soon as it came, being replaced by her mouth on top of yours. It was a quick kiss, but smooth and skillful. You broke away, looking up at Silva with bewilderment. She was certainly affectionate, but the moderate amount for a human animal hybrid. Kisses, were never given-- you had never even thought about such affections with her.

She was always just an annoying, loafing roommate cat person who stole your food. But now? Well, you couldn't deny how fast your heart was racing.

"Don't ever say that. Don't ever say something like that again. " She waved her finger in your face, perfectly manicured. Of course, she had time to do her nails while you were serving capitalist businessmen.

Focusing on small things other than her voice was better than actually processing the information and anger she had at you.

"Hey!" Silva's weight on top of yours was both comforting and suffocating, as panic rose inside of you. "Are you listening to me? Do I need to kiss you again to get your attention? "

Your head snapped at that. Embarrassed and feeling surreal, you shifted uncomfortably under Silva.

"Well at least that caught your eye," she said, stroking back a few pieces of your hair. "But I want you to promise me... you're not.. gross. I can't even think of it! Do you promise me? "

You mumble under your breath, looking away once again.

"Don't make me.." Silva muttered, inching dangerously close to your face. To avoid her assault once more, you shouted out.

"Okay, fine! I get your point.. I was just trying to help... I didn't want you to be let down. I didn't want you to be disappointed in what I really looked like... "

"Disappointed-- How the hell could I be disappointed? What you really look like? " She laughed, her body reverberating against you. You were almost in awe seeing her do so. She had never laughed-- at least not because of you, or something so silly as your lack of confidence. Sure, she'd burst out howling at the TV sometimes, but you had never seen her laugh like this. A real, living, breathless laugh.

You shrugged, unsure of what to say.

"Y/n, I could never be disappointed, never. After everything, " she leaned down to kiss you slowly, but you didn't pull away; it was chaste, almost the illusion of affection. "After all that you've done for me."

Silva's hands gripped your shoulder blades, her mouth lingering over your cheek. "Even if we were strangers. Even if you never found me, I'd find you." She leaned down, kissing your cheek and moving to your neck. You tangled your fingers in her dark hair, your hips instinctively moving up to push against hers.

"I can't believe you would ever think that I would be 'disappointed,'" she breathed hard, snickering against your skin.

Pulling down your collar, she kissed your upper chest, running a hand down up and down the side of your stomach.

"What was I supposed to think." You whined, annoyed at how she mocked you.

"Not that, idiot!" She flicked your forehead, her ears flattening slightly.

"Either way," licking her lips, Silva moves to look in your eyes. "I don't ever want to hear words like that come out of your mouth again. If you do, I might just have to punish you-- can't have you badmouthing my pet. Okay?" She said with a grin, peering down at you.

"Alright.." you said with a sigh, staring back at her.

"Good." She gave you a short kiss. "Now, will you play with me?"

Another suggestive face was thrown your way.

"Silva I have to work tomorrow. " You groaned, shifting underneath her. The excuse of having work was both true, and it helped disguise your embarrassment and fear. Doing such as she suggested, was something you had never even dreamed of doing with Silva.

"I won't take no for an answer!"

She smiles, positioning herself above you. Silva's palms are planted in yours, stretching out your right hand against the bed.

She kisses your lips, slowly trailing down to your chest, stomach, and lower abdomen. Pulling down slightly at the top of your pants, Silva looks up at you.

One of your hands is still nestled in her hair, petting her ears slightly.

"Now, let's play."
