Is it wrong to date a guy from an enemy faction when your country doesn’t exist anymore? Asking for a friend
A kaebedo au in which kaeya lives in a spy drama and albedo in a sitcom
Note: Minor spoilers for some lore from Pernhari lore books
Given what we now know about how the crimson moon dynasty came before the eclipse dynasty and was more focused on alchemy, i would like to submit a theory that albedo is from the crimson moon faction
His master rhinedottr is famous for her alchemy after all, and he followed in her footsteps.
Not that these factions mean much to albedo, k’hanriah is long gone, and there is so much more in the world to discover
But Kaeya! Kaeya was sent as a spy by the k’hanrians who haven’t given up yet, they still have hope and cling to old traditions.
They served the dynasty of eclipse, of course the differences between crimson moon and exclipse matter to them
Especially if i go out on a limb and theorize the crimson moon had something to do with the fall of k’hanriah. Like a revolt or political infighting. Side eyes “the exclipse was swallowed by the crimson moon”
So it makes sense why neither kaeya nor albedo were aware that they’d meet another k’hanrian in mondstat, much less another captain in the knights
Kaeya spends a day in agony, fully expecting albedo to jump him and make kaeya follow some new “mission” or something
That is until albedo mentions alchemy, specifically kemia. The pride of the crimson moon’s alchemists.
Combined with albedo’s seeming lack of knowledge as to who kaeya is, this can only mean one thing.
Albedo isn’t a spy from eclipse here to get Kaeya back on track. He’s a spy from crimson moon here to do the same thing as kaeya!
Naturally kaeya can’t let an enemy spy get to close to mondstat! Especially since they might not be friendly like him!
Plus he’s grown up on stories that blame the crimson moon for k’hanriah’s fall. (Also the gods and abyss, but come on, we all know the rival political faction was the real enemy here) he does not want that to happen to mondstat
So kaeya decides to get close to albedo, feel him out and see what his intentions are, and dispose of him if he needs to.
Unfortunately for him, a wrench is thrown in his plans in the form of Klee. Sweet, loveable klee who adores her big brother albedo so much, and would definitely cry if he were to suddenly vanish, and he just couldn’t do that ot her (also there is an all powerful witch who will definitely destroy mondstat if they make her precious daughter cry)
Now kaeya must find other ways to handle mond’s latest ticking time bomb and figure out his secrets, all while trying to ignore how those eyes make his heart skip a beat (from fear, he lies to himself)
Meanwhile, albedo clocks kaeya as a k’hanrian from the eclipse faction the moment he saw him. Given how it was all over kaeya’s clothes, he thought this was intentional.
And sure, kaeya never talks about his homeland, or his people before mondstat, but given everything that went down its probably a sore spot. No one else brings it up ir comments on his heritage so albedo just assumes everyone knows and no one talks about it out of respect for kaeya, and some other illusive social cue.
So when kaeya starts getting close to albedo, with his signature flirty moves, albedo does not think this has anything to do with crimson moon vs eclipse. He thinks this is just kaeya trying to get to know the new captain
Maybe he’s curious about alchemy?
So he shows off a few cool potions to a wide eyes kaeya
Kaeya internally: is this a threat?
Albedo internally: i am winning at social interaction 😁
Albedo figured kaeya would get bored of him soon enough, when he realized that albedo’s job of alchemy is a lot more math and a lot less cool explosions.
But when kaeya sticks around, asking questions about albedo’s past, befriending klee, expressing curiousity in what exactly his potions can be used for, albedo starts to get suspicious
It’s not the alchemy itself. Albedo offered to teach kaeya some small potions and kaeya all but leapt away in his haste to refuse (those childhood stories of “touch alchemy and u die” realy stuck with him)
So he goes to sucrose and timeaus and asks them.
Sucrose is equally baffled, wonders if maybe kaeya just really likes chopping up ingredients
Albedo: hmm. He does do it everytime i ask…
Timeus: oh my archons, kaeya has a crush on you.
Albedo decides to test both theories. He stops letting kaeya cut his ingredients, but that doesn’t deter him. So he checks to see if Kaeya is attracted to him
By silently crowding close to kaeya to hear if his heart speeds up
Kaeya meanwhile, has a stone faced alchemist pushing him into a wall, is absolutely thinking he’s about to be murdered (and that it’s hot)
Albedo notices the speed up. Ahh so he does like me.
Kaeya: i have to go now! Proceeds to rush out the door.
Albedo is confused. If kaeya likes him, why is he running?
He asks timeus and sucrose. Sucrose offers to stalk him for a while to find out why. Timeus replies that albedo was “too forward” and that people like “to be chased”
Albedo, chasing kaeya: is this what u want?
Kaeya: oh god he’s gonna kill me!
The method that albedo picks to woo Kaeya is to offer him a fancy lunch he cooked, complete with a traditional khanrian delicacy: the spider sandwich.
Kaeya does not enjoy this, his mind running wild trying to figure out what albedo is trying to say to him by feeding him spiders.
Albedo decides he can’t trust Rhinedottr’s ideas of “traditional delicacies” (who knew her spider sandwich wasn’t normal?)
So he turns to sucrose, who has been stalking kaeya. She proposes a date that she has gathered from her research: take him drinking.
Now if albedo had started with this, it probably would have gonne much easier for him. But after a week of being stalked, chased, and fed spiders, kaeya’s guard is way up.
He’s convinced this is an attempt to get him drunk to get information out of him. Well good luck with that, kaeya’s no light weight, he’s certain he can drink albedo under the table, and get him talking instead
Albedo is a but hesitant when kaeya suggests a drinking competition, but goes along with it.
The result is a very drunk albedo cuddling up to kaeya and whispering the periodic table seductively in his ear.
Kaeya was not prepared for that. Not at all. He comes back home thinking that the crimson moon really trains their spies to be good at keeping secrets
Albedo comes back to his home confident at a successful first date
Things continue onward in their will they won’t they, until one day kaeya wakes up in bed with albedo, in matching pjs, klee sleeping between them, and realizes that seduction was the crimson moons game all along, and he lost.
But oh well, its not like he’s really following eclipse’s orders anyways. He thinks as he goes back to sleep
The end

I heard you like g-man.... do you have any hcs
(Sorry for taking 2-3 months to respond i just figured out where to find submitted asks) but YES I DO 😈I HAVE MANY!!
These headcanons apply to pretty much every iteration of gman i guess. But mostly HLVRAI gman bc they’re my main fixation 😭😭❤️
—————-
1. GMAN NON BINARY SOMEHOW. bro uses all pronouns but probably uses he-him as a default because being masc presenting is probably good in patriarchal society on earth (boooo)
HE CAN SWITCH FROM MASC TO FEMME AT WILL, EMPLOYERS CAN SHAPESHIFT. HE USES IT TO ACHIEVE GENDER EUPHORIA HURRAYYY!!
But YEAHeah being an all knowing space entity i don’t think traditional gender norms really stick in his brain so they only align with them to make tangible sense to the average human 🚶‍♀️
2. (HLVRAI G-man specifically)
Gman is pathetic. okay, Saul Goodman levels of pathetic like if we think abt it they’re just an intergalactic salaryman that works tirelessly for the employers.
So as much as he’s mysterious and powerful compared to other members of the Employers he’s generally a very average guy. Swings his suitcase around awkwardly and shit. Massive dork. Hate her (love her), but the powerful impression he gives off is only ever used to show off to humans / non-employers.
The large speeches / monologues are just him trying to look cool and imposing to unsuspecting humans (sorry gordon freeman 😭)
3. Gman differs greatly to other members of the Employers because he’s kinder / softer than the rest of them. He shows a degree of appreciation for life on Earth and uses his powers to protect the smallest things even when they don’t matter in the grand scheme of things!! ( gman moving a snail out of the way so it won’t get crushed, putting a birds nest in a safe place etc )
I feel if the Employers did not limit their abilities they would cause larger positive changes with their powers!! ( I even headcanon that employers limit his abilities because he would overuse them for good causes, especially when the employers are dedicated to being a *neutral* party)
Their personal values also don’t align with the Employers AT ALL, they only comply to not be fired </3
As a result employers don’t really like him much because he’s too … nice compared to the rest of them ☹️
Again, this adoration for life is shown by him literally having a PET CROW!! I also imagine Gman ( and Employers in general ) have the ability to communicate coherently and intelligently with animals, so he honestly has full blown conversations with this pet crow when he feels like it.
They’re one of the nicer members of the Employers , even if larger actions say otherwise.
4.
THEYRE A HISTORY BUFF!!!! He’s been alive for … ages so i definitely think they have knowledge of history / evolution / events that he often dumps to either himself or anyone that will listen </3
5. I based this headcanon off something I read somewhere AGES AGO(I may just be hallucinating) but I swear it said that Earth’s atmosphere messes with them AND that he struggles with human languages because space language phonetics are what he’s used to.
So I honestly like to think his strained croaky voice is just a result of Earth’s atmosphere difference compared to where the Employers reside - he basically just has hayfever from Earth LMAOOO
So when he returns to space/ wherever the employers reside his voice is actually pretty normal and average and totes not croaky, and that the long pauses he takes are just to sound out human words before he says them.😭
6. HE KEEPS PICTURESOF THINGS HE LIKES IN HIS SUITCASE / TRINKETS,, (autism..)
in hlvrai gman’s case he has a picture of Tommy etc in his suitcase so he can look at it and not lose hope while he’s doing boring Employer duties. I genuinely think our gman is the most sentimental/sappy so ofc he keeps things that he loves in his suitcase / jacket pockets to be entertained and joyful 💖 he’s so not beating the loving all life on earth allegations
7. Gman neurodivergent. That’s the post. He got that space autism. I won’t go into detail because i can’t put it into words but he has an undeniable autism swagger ✅
8. Uhh.. clairvoyance, future vision, literally altering the fabric of time, time travel, stopping time, girly stuff like that. That’s all canon anyway but i just really enjoy how fuckin overpowered she is😭!!
That’s literally all i can think of right now, if i ever think of more ill probably post them or make doodles of them skjdkfjd
TLDR: (HLVRAI) GMAN IS A DUMB SAPPY PATHETIC INTERGALATIC SALARYMAN WHO LOVES HIS SON AND KEEPS TRINKETS IN HIS SUITCASE!!! AND THE OTHER EMPLOYERS BULLY HIM FOR BEING A SWEETIEPIE ON DUTY!!! And has a pet crow. Yeah
Tumblr media
and they’re transgender in every direction fathomable to man .. send tweet..💖✅

《 DATING ANDRE HEADCANONS 》
There is no x reader in this fandom and I have to do something about it (rip Ms Queef @zerodayimagine)
- first off. Dating Andre would mean Cal just always being. There. Either physically or as a topic of conversation
- he'd thirdwheel on your dates to follow along behind you and complain
- "You Me and Steve" type situation
- Cal also probably wouldn't like you, because of you hanging around so closely with Andre. You'd get passive aggressive'd at constantly
- if the sidewalk isn't wide enough for three people you might end up walking behind them
- you might end up thirdwheeling on your own dates, honestly
- Andre would be ready to leave at a moment's notice to go hang out with Cal
- it'd be like dating Batman except instead of fighting crime he's zipping outta there to talk about killing people with his best friend
- HOWEVER, if Cal has fucked off to Australia or been snatched up by a bird or something, or him and Andre aren't that codependent, Andre... would still be a difficult boyfriend
- he's not exactly Mr Communication
- getting him to be your boyfriend in the first place would be a difficult task, because he's shy in his own weird way, and if he liked you back he'd react by pressing his feelings down and avoiding you
- he's the type to get crushes very rarely, but have them intensely and for a long time, from a distance
- to have a crush, or god forbid tell the person, would be to be vulnerable, and he's not good at that kind of thing
- best you'd get at first would be him making fun of you (to try and get your attention). But if anybody asked if he had a crush on you he'd say no
- you might have to chase him down with a shotgun I dunno
- it would take a while for him to build up trust and let you get to know him, but he doesn't do that for many people, so if he lets you get that far it means he really wants you around
- he'd show up to your first date wearing like a full bottle of cologne (got nervous)
- he'd be very cute to fluster
- he'd be possessive, too, and easily jealous, and he wouldn't like you talking to other guys at all
- he'd get pissed off and suspicious if he saw you talking to some dude outside of class, but he wouldn't say he was jealous. He'd just get kinda pissy and ask you why you were talking to "that asshole" and etc. Carrying on and such
- he's insecure, but once again, not gonna say that, just gonna get kinda mad or overprotective
- he'd take pride in being a "manly" type boyfriend, too. He really wants you to think he's cool
- he'd want to pay for stuff, get doors, walk on the outside of the sidewalk, that sort of thing
- you'd be introduced to his family, he's the type to go the traditional route, and his parents would want to meet you
- he's not very physically or verbally affectionate, he didn't grow up in a household that did that sort of thing so it doesn't come naturally to him
- he'd show his feelings for you through actions, subtly worrying over you, and being overprotective
- he also doesn't need to constantly be with you all the time, he just doesn't want you to be with anyone else
- however he would secretly really want physical affection. He'd probably deep down like being the little spoon. He's a bit starved
- I think he'd like you holding him and petting his hair
- all in all it'd take a lot to get to him and go through the layers of defensiveness, embarrassment, insecurity, and general emotional incompetency, but he'd be loyal as hell and might get a bit obsessed with you. For better or worse

Regarding the incredible royal AU (THAT I LOVE SO MUCH ALREADY🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡) If that’s okay I would love to hear more about andreil and what happens next? Maybe about them becoming official (like official official- being recognised as a prince and his betrothed/ husband(?)) (I guess it depends if in your AU people officially recognise gay relationships (hopefully they do? :D) and just the overall reactions to that event or maybe like the scene of one of them proposing to the other (I don’t really know about engagements in history, do you need to properly court somebody? Or do you just give them a ring and ask?)
This is getting long and you don’t need to answer or anything but I just wanted to say I absolutely adore the way u draw the characters and their poses and interactions and I always love your additions like headcanons and notes and stuff (it’s honestly thrilling to read I can’t stop I love it so much)🥰🥹❤️❤️❤️ Hope you have a good day!!
Hello!! First thank you so much you’re so kind to come here and say all these things 🥹💕
As for andreil becoming official - I think yes. When I do royal aus I wouldn’t necessarily call the universe/world “queer normative” because the higher in station you go, the more true “straight until proven otherwise” holds - no one frowns on gay relationships and the setting is perfectly accepting, they just kind of… expect their rulers to be straight for bloodline convenience and all that 🤷 and it’s not like Andrew is trying to be subtle either, he keeps his relationships and ‘affairs’ to himself well but once he actually takes a liking to Abram he’s not really trying to hide it (case in point: here). He just lets the rumors about his sexuality spread and hopes he won’t have to make a big deal about coming out.
The really really fun part about universes like this is that we can kind of make up the traditions to be whatever we want! I love love love the idea of courting, I think it’s got great possibilities (and I’m so certain Aaron courting Katelyn was like the floweriest, cutest thing ever omg) so I’d love to make Andrew actually commit to courting Abram 😂 But like in canon where Andrew and Neil (and this is only a widely accepted head canon) don’t make a big deal about a proposal and wedding, probably having a tiny wedding or just going to the courthouse - Prince Andrew doesn’t make it a grand, super special thing like King Aaron and Katelyn wanted to. He picks the parts he likes and makes sure he meets all the basic expected requirements (because I want SO BADLY for Andrew to secretly be a sap, he likes the romantic stuff he just doesn’t like making it public) and then when Abram wants to, they get married and Abram becomes whatever title is next in line after prince. Duke? I don’t remember right now but yeah to avoid confusion/political issues he is not technically also considered a prince.
The people as a general rule love this, people like parties and they like celebration and a wedding is both of those and the prince seems happy so that’s as good as it’s gonna get. No one’s going to be able to say Abram doesn’t make them a tiny bit wary because let’s be real. Abram’s nature before you get to know him can be off putting. But that’s the only real thing anyone would have against their marriage.
ANYWAY. god there’s so many ways it could go, so many little things and fun possibilities to consider when you think about an Abram/Andrew courtship and SINCE WE GET TO MAKE UP THE RULES?? If you guys start putting courtship ideas in the tags and replies I might melt omg 😭🥰 sappy Andrew, Abram picking up on it when he realizes how much Andrew likes it (the only thing he’s actually sappy about is making Andrew blush and making him feel special in ways that aren’t just because of his station), parts they put on for show and the little cute things they do for each other when no one else is there… AUGH
Yeah to answer your question: the people are surprised but cool with a gay prince, they think his fiancé’s a little spooky but whatever, and andreil court at Andrew’s pace and get married when Abram is ready and everyone is happy :D

Kenrietta headcanons! :D
I have actually wanted to talk about them for a long time
So:
- Obvi that goth kids think main four are lame the same as main four think goth kids are lame. But I like to think that Kenny and Henrietta like...If they had to choose someone from another group, they'd choose each other. Like yeah, those guys are lame, but that orange coat guy is probably the least lame of them all. Goth kids suck, but that Henrietta girl is kinda okay. You can't really call that sympathy, but it's something.
- With all that in mind, I have a headcanon: One day Kenny started to greet Henrietta when he saw her. At the malls, around the town and at the weird places goth kids where hanging out at. A simple "Hey" or "Hi" as a joke, just for the fun of it. And it is fun too see goth kids side-eyeing first him and then Henrietta. She swears that she doesn't talk to that loser guy, but they only believe her out of pity. At first (few weeks maybe) Henrietta was extremely pissed, then she calmed down a bit and ignored Kenny completely (for a few months maybe, Kenny even started to lose the entire "fun" feeling). But one time, when she was at the mall with her mother (she forced Henrietta to go so she obviously wasn't very happy). And then she sees Kenny, who says his traditional "Hi". And that was the first time Henrietta says "Hey" back, because even talking to a loser guy is better than buying groceries with her mother (her mother was also kinda happy seeing Henrietta talk to a "normal" person). Kenny was genuinely surprised, to say the least of it. The conversation went on, they pretended like they know each other and talked about how the things are going and all that boring stuff. Turns out Kenny wasn't that bad. Maybe even a little funny. Whatever
- This one is a bit time-skiped deeper into their relationships...So, uhm, Henrietta would actually believe that Kenny is immortal. Not because she feels pity, not because she *believes* in everything Kenny says, but because...It's is extremely fucking goth. And cool. And she wants to study that
‐ Along with the previous headcanon: Henrietta would definitely try to find the true nature of Kenny's curse, how it works and how he can get rid of it...Or share it. Kenny personally doesn't think she really *believed* him, but this is the most involved someone has ever been in his case, so he's happy with what he has. Henrietta reads different books, they go back to the cult and she even tries to perform different rituals. Which doesn't really show any results, but they spend time together like that.

You kno, I always (since I started playing LoZ 20+ years ago+additional ideas that came later) assumed Ganondorf is green bc of Koume and Kotake's influence. They're two powerful witches, and the occasional depiction of witches being green has probably also spread to Japan, so from that to show Ganon's ties to them, they were all three turned shades of green bc magic. It also sounded in-game like those two were a big reason for why Ganondorf went power mad and pushed war, even tho the other Gerudo didn't want him to go that extreme. Doesn't explain totk Ganondorf since there's literally no reason or backstory for him, but maybe it's like "tradition" by now. I also know there's a Chinese saying "putting on a green hat" which means the same as being green with envy, so I could imagine smth similar exists in Japanese, smth that could have worked with Oot's Ganondorf's envy of Hyrule's life giving lands. Since TP and WW, and HW Ganondorf are all the same guy, that kinda still works? I know it's really being viewed critical why he looks like he looks w the green skin, so thought I'd share a thing I basically came up with as a kid. (Except the green hat, only found out later, but the green with envy thought I did have back then.) Green hat works more for Link in the literal sense, so maybe Ganondorf has a figurative green hat. 😩
Hey! Yeah, I assumed the same for a very long time, and I'm pretty sure it's still the intent today.
I still think it's worth mentioning the trend has been really exacerbated with time; even back in OoT, his skin tone is not... that off the charts. Like yes, it does lean green, but after doing some color picking, it still stands reasonnably in the brown. It is a little sickly/olive, and there is a big gap between the concept arts and the model in-game already then (and in Smash, he's pretty much in the browns in his default model too), but it *could* be somebody's skin color. It's the same thing for WW Ganon btw, where his skin is definitively brown in the concept art and got much greener once modeled in the game. TP Ganon is the one where the difference between concept art and in-game skin is the least noticeable, but he also has the darkest shade by far so it doesn't read super green, even if it is quite there if you color pick. TotK Ganon is the color of a spinach smoothie in comparaison; even in the concept art itself, which might be even greener than the model in-game (a first!)
To be generous and fair to the whole thing, I think it used to be a case of what looked the most dramatic in-game, and a green hue does look less natural, colder, deader and scarier than a red-base one, especially in extremely intense lighting situations where Ganon often finds himself in, where it is easy to use that base color for contrast, especially with the red of his hair or the gold of his eyes and his little forehead jewel. This coupled with the influence of Twinrova and the association with envy probably pushed this direction even further every time.
But again, it is also hard to extract these choices from the history, in fantasy and sci-fi, of how to still dehumanize archetypes of PoCs without actually having them "being PoCs", or using excuses of inherent evilness to make their treatment by the narrative more acceptable. I am not mad at this choice inherently, but I am critical of it in the light of every other choice made in the year of our lady Hylia 2023 and the fact that I *so often* see this being used as protection against criticisms of both orientalism and a lack of care for what it implies about the worldbuilding of Hyrule. In OoT there was the connection to dark magic and the Twinrova; but in TotK, the Twinrova are easter eggs at best, not an active part of what shaped our antagonist and made him who he is. His evilness is made profusely clear the second he grabs the stone and becomes basically Satan with very cool hair, in a design that does lean super red and black anyway; one would think he'd rather try to hide his true nature before this?
(there is also history of PoC being turned green to avoid direct critique in fantasy/sci-fi worldbuilding, I think Star Trek is one of the big culprits but don't quote me on that)
Again, it's the package that is weird; and even more than the package, gradually changing PoC features over time in a way that, while not maybe being the only reason for the change, does allow the heroes to clearly identify the source of evil as Unlike Them while also distancing themselves from the more direct racist implications instead of... kind of allowing this to complicate the conflict, and accept that the conflict *is already complicated* no matter what is retconned or emphasized or changed. But the priority is simplicity and cleanness, and so Ganon and the gerudos do bear the blunt of these choices more often than not; the green skin being one of the more visible examples.

How to catch (my pookies) inosukes eye
Tumblr media
For Inosuke i feel he would prefer a s/o who's a little weaker then him but can still keep up because:
If you were stronger then him, he would constantly ask you to fight him (casually harassing you) then he would get all pissy after you beat him avoid you and the cycle would repeat. Youd probably never get to interact with him outside of him demanding a fight and annoying the shit outta you, you wouldn't ever get to see the soft side of him and prolly wouldn't be able to develop feelings. But he would probably grow to admire you a lot he doesn't know it but he would have a crush on you but he would be to proud to tell you and you can't tell since you barely see him so it wouldn't be reciprocated.
If you were significantly weaker then him, he would get annoyed with you real fast and you wouldn't be "flashy" enough to catch his eye but there is a way! (Will be explained later on) But he does want to be a traditional type man ex providing and protecting. He will pride himself on being your protector.
So being on (almost) the same level is the perfect balance cause you get the best of both worlds because he will admire you a lot for your skills but his ego will also be stroked and fed.
His ideal personality would be.
Playful: He NEEDS someone to do his shenanigans with. An example would be someone who goes along with his king of the mountains gag.
"Underling fetch me some food!"
"Of course my lord!" Bro is blushing under his mask but blames it on the fact that its hotunder his mask.
I am a firm believer that he loves playfighting especially wrestling. You will be rolling around on the floor for HOURS.
Competitive: He LOVES competitions so you better bring that energy back, eating dinner? No. Eating competition. Find a flower on the ground? Now It's a flower finding competition now. He doesn't realize it but he constantly one ups you any chance he gets so if you're not competitive it'll get annoying pretty fast.
Motherly (Stern, caring and kind): We all know he goes CRAZY for any sign of kindness especially compliments. I'm 100% sure he would go for someone who's practically the opposite him it helps balance the chaos. He needs someone to tell him where the boundaries are, someone who will drag him back to a person he insulted and make him apologize but also someone who shows immense care for him, someone who only wants the best for him (its hard for him to see it though)
(A motherly persona is honestly perfect for him because of how stubborn he is)
Adventurous/Fun: Since he fights demons for fun, I feel he would get really bored in his downtime, so keeping him entertained is a must. I feel as though he LIVES for adrenaline so its a bit hard to keep him focused and entertained with simple conversation so you have to take him on little adventures so he doesn't go absolutely nuts and starts wrecking things
Patient: He doesn't understand some of society's customs, so you have to be patient with him and explain slowly. He's impatient as hell so when he doesn't get something first try he'll get mad for a bit so you have to wait for him to cool down before restarting (He actually appreciates this a lot)
Also having something your really good at (hobbies like paintings, sculpting crocheting) and he isn't, at first he'll get pouty but then he'll be determined at becoming better then you. You'll teach him and if its something with his hands like crafting chances are he'll like it and you guys will get to bond.
Brave: This is just another way of saying you gotta be a demon slayer lmaoo. (I honestly can't see him with a civilian)
Good cook: Actually you don't have to be a good cook as long im pretty sure he'd eat anything smash up some bugs and grind them into juice and he'll eat it with a smile
Tumblr media
If you like cooking you get extra points because you could give him extra food or teach him how to cook properly.
You have two options for your first meeting
Option 1 (the short one where you are a demon slayer)
He comes in, in the middle of the battle with a demon which you were struggling with and he comes along and anihalites it. You very obviously thank him and he gives you a bandage since your bleeding (He might even apply it depending on how much you're complimenting him)
"Wow! I've never seen anything like your breathing style! Whats it called?!"
"Its called Beast Breathing i made it myself!" He brags
My vision is that you gas him up so much, you somehow become his understudy. Now thud is a DREAM COME TRUE for him because he finally gets an "underling" (its kind of like a tsusuko for the hashira) Now be warned he's the world's worst teacher he explains like this ⬇️
Tumblr media
So you won't learn much but the moment you use something he taught you he's over the moon and takes all the credit. (This was more just a cute idea then something that could be developed but whatever 🐗)
Option 2: ( where you're a helper/ nurse at the butterfly mansion)
A couple hours ago your crow had informed you a big battle with a powerful demon was just starting so naturally everyone started preparing. Beds were made, medicine on stand by and everyone waiting by the front door.
"Injured demon slayers approaching!" Your crow cawed. With you at the head all the girls ran outside. A couple Kakushi were running towards the mansion people hung limp on their backs as blood dripped down. Aoi and the others rushed beds with wheels outside, the only person still conscious was a boy with yellow hair, he was bawling.
"We have to go back for Tanjirooo!!" He whined draging out "Tanjiro" like a toddler.
"I'm sure Tanjiro will be fine!" Aoi scolded as she pushed him down onto a bed, she seemed to know who Tanjiro was. "Now rest up." Suma begun wheeling him inside to the infirmary so they could start on treatment.
"What about Inosuke?! He was right behind me, where is he!?" He screamed at you as he was dragged away. "The demon must have got to him!" His tears really started to come down now, it was a good thing he was gone. His cries were quite annoying.
You now started to take notice to something in the distance a Kakushi practically wrestling something to the ground.
"That idiot." Aoi scowled, pinching the bridge of her nose as she sighed heavily. "We're going to be swamped. I need you take care of him." She pointed to the Kakushi and the person struggling? Usually you would be tending to multiple people at once but he seemed like a handful.
"Of course. I'll get him in here as soon as possible." You rushed over, you could see more clearly now a Kakushi was practically dragging a demon slayer to the butterfly mansion. The demon slayer was yelling and trying to squirm free, he wore a boar mask. How odd.
"What seems to be the problem?"
"This idiot-" Before the Kakushi could finish answering your question the demon slayer started yelling at you two.
"Take me back goddammit! Kentaro can't fight it alone!" Wasn't it Tanjiro? No that didn't matter he was extremely hurt and he was failing around, if he continued he'd lose even more blood. It didn't seem possible since he was drenched and caked in blood but whatever.
"Sir you need to relax."
"No!" As the poor Kakushi (+you) desperately tried to drag him into the mansion, he was only losing more and more blood, you made an executive decision to knock him out. A quick blow to the back of the neck and he was out and foaming at the mouth.
Surprisingly the only two people that were conscious were the ones with the worst injuries. Tanjiro came in about 30 minutes after you and the girls stiched everyone up. It seemed that those 3 boys were the ones who had fought the hardest and in consequence had the most injuries a total of 36 different stiches were spilt in between them. They had to have their own individual rooms and the 3 young girls were assigned to them You finally got to bed at 4 am, you were completely exhausted unfortunately you weren't allowed to rest because at 6 Naho, Kiyo and Sumi came bursting in.
"Y/n!" They cried out, you were so tried you hadn't bothered changing to go to bed.
"Yes?" You tiredly called out to them.
"Were sorry for interrupting, but the boar demon slayer is going crazy Aoi-san is out and we need your help." You grumbled before getting up fixing your hair and walking to his room.
The few Kakushi that had stuck around were now forced to hold down the crazy demon slayer. You threw the door open, storming in.
"Whats the issue?" The Kakushi quickly stumbled out the door.
"Where's Kentaro?!" He yelled at you jumping out of bed. Huh no concern for the yellow haired boy.
"Tanjiro is in a different room due to the intensity of his injuries. Now if you want to see him i suggest you get back in bed so you can heal faster."
"No! It's boring." You both went back and forth the good news about arguing was that he was only focusing on winning the argument instead of going to find his friend and tearing his stiches.
"Look, you're bored right? How bout we play a game. I win you go rest and you win..."
"I'll get extra food."
"Yeah, I challemge you to a thumb war hows that sound?"
As you thought he was keen on the idea, by using how weak he was to your advantage you won. He was pissy and demanded you do a best out of 3. You did and you won. It turned into a best out of 5 then 10 but after 20 minutes you worried you were wasting time on trivial matters so you wrapped it up.
"I won, so now you've got to rest up alright?"
When you delivered his food he challenged you to another game, you won.
He was a terrible patient honestly Aoi couldn't get him to take his medicine without shoving it down his thoart, he wouldn't rest, he'd fight anyone and everyone and he was loud as hell.
Aoi and Sumi couldn't deal with him anymore so she passed him down onto you. Getting him to take his medicine was easier you just had to win a simple game. He still gave you the stink eye but it didn't matter.
Time skip to a couple days later.
"Hey I got your breakfast." You layed his tray down on his bedside table.
"How long until I get out of here?"
"In a couple weeks but with you resting so well you're sure to be able to move around freely soon. As soon as you can walk we'll set you up in a new room with your friends." You sat down on the side of his bed laid down the bandages and extended your hand.
"One two three four i declare a thumb war." He won. Dammnit.
"So whats on the menu for tonight?"
"Tempura!" He energetically responded, how were you going to get him to change his bandages now?
"Hey I tell you what if you let me change your bandages ill get you extra food."
"No fair we had a deal!"
"Thats true. So what about we do best out of 3?" He won all 3 times.
"Guess you really are regaining your strength i guess ill have to stop betting for it."
"What no! They're the only fun thing around here!" You now made a new deal, youd spend a certain amount of time playing games with him each day, bring his favourite food and he would let you change his bandages and take his medicine.
Before you knew it Inosuke refused to be treated by anyone else and you were spending most tof your time with him even though he wasn't that injured anymore
Even though this was supposed to be an inosuke appreciation account I haven't posted him until now :((
I got kinda lazy at the end lolll

I can’t tell you how funny it is to me that the prequel trilogy goes out of its way to tell us how much the Jedi council did things by tradition.
They were fully admitting that Anakin was probably that nebulous “chosen one,” but they still didn’t want to train him because they considered him too old. They told Anakin off for having attachments. They decided everything in a council and refused to make moves without voting on them. They saw Anakin as reckless.
Then, the one who saves the Force in the end is Luke fucking Skywalker. Luke fucking Skywalker, who became a Jedi at nineteen! Luke Skywalker, who was immediately far too attached to a stranger he saw on a message. Luke Skywalker, who spends fifteen seconds, maybe, considering his move before doing it. Luke Skywalker, who was reckless enough to leave Dagobah in the middle of his training and face Darth fucking Vader.
Is there a character in the franchise who goes more against what the Jedi code was? Luke begins the trilogy emotional and irrational and reckless and STILL becomes one of the most powerful Jedi in canon! The Force Ghosts of the Jedi council are quaking!! They never show themselves to him because they probably can’t stand being reminded that THAT GUY saved the Force and the galaxy and is the only one left to continue on teaching the ways of the Jedi.
Luke Skywalker is not only the oldest padawan in the galaxy. He is not only the boy who got very attached to an astromech droid. He is not only reckless. He is also the result of the guy the Jedi council kept telling off for being all of those things and more not listening to the Jedi council! He is the offspring of the one man the Jedi probably hoped would have children the least!
Like, can you imagine??? They are probably so upset!!! Can you imagine how Yoda feels??? Yoda was like “I don’t think we should train Anakin Skywalker, he’s too old and I have a bad feeling about it,” only for the rest of the council to outvote him, and now he has to teach Anakin’s kid!!! Yoda is definitely an asshole on first meeting on purpose, and I honestly can’t even blame him! If the others had listened to him, none of this would have happened! Yoda becomes a Force Ghost and says “I told you so” everytime Mace Windu or Qui-Gon Jinn so much as think of opening their mouths.
And I know that Luke becomes a great Jedi because he tamps down on his emotional recklessness and trains and all of that, but honestly, this boy still is nearly as dramatic as his father, mother, and Obi-Wan all combined. He is wearing his most dramatic outfit. He tells C-3PO to lie to the Ewoks and puts the fear of an imaginary god into them. He crushes deadly, deadly drones like tin cans without any effort. Luke doesn’t even have the respect to be a Jedi who is undeniably on the Light Side, he is constantly giving off evil vibes! He killed countless people on the Death Star and he decided to try and convince Darth Vader to be good and I really think he occasionally just laughs maniacally while sitting in a tall chair and stroking a cat, and he’s probably doing it just to bug the ghosts of the Jedi council.
Like, honestly? The prequels are worth a watch just to see how Luke destroys everything Palpatine created, but also the image the Jedi stood for.
(Believe me. By the end of the trilogy, you will want both to be destroyed. I cannot explain in words how obnoxious the Jedi are in the prequels. Yes, they are cool. Yes, they are hot. Yes, I enjoy their fight scenes immensely. No, I do NOT think they are good teachers because a good teacher understands that the trust between a student and a teacher is a two-way street. If you lie and hide things, your student will not trust you. What did they think was going to happen? Did they think they could just teach children how to stifle their emotions and it would all work out? You need to allow your students to show emotion, you need to allow your students to feel safe doing so, Jedi. Otherwise, they will obviously view any mistakes as a failure and the won’t want to talk to you. And a teacher who cannot communicate with their student is a bad teacher.
Don’t get me wrong, some of them are probably wonderful teachers. Yoda encourages his students to make fun of Obi-Wan, which humanizes a probably intimidating figure and makes it easier for the students to go to Yoda or Obi-Wan with questions, and that’s wonderful, truly. But, if the way they handled Anakin is any indication, I’m surprised it took Palpatine to kill them all off. Anakin was told off for having attachment to his mother, but Anakin would have been a lot less possessive of his bond to his mother if he had been allowed to have it! If they had just let him visit her once or twice, Anakin would’ve had an easier time calming down, because he wouldn’t constantly be questioning if he’d ever see her again and holding onto his memory of her so strongly. If you just tell a child not to have attachment, they will only stop growing an attachment and trust with you. This is basis stuff, did the Jedi not think to consult a psychologist when they were brainwashing children?)
Anyway, long story short, watching Luke destroy the Empire is good, but knowing that he does so while being the picture of what the Jedi didn’t want any of their members to be is just the cherry on top :)

How TWST Characters Would React When They Find Out That Hetalia!MC is a Country Personification
Tumblr media
Note: Doing this so I don't have to re-type everything again and again. Doing this for all characters too. Also, this goes for all Hetalia characters that I write as MC. I will also link this to future Hetalia!MC works.
Also, please note that some characters might trun out to be OOC, because I have a bit of trouble characterizing some. Also, Idia and Ortho's part might be a bit strange (or not, idk-) because I'm still waiting for someone to release a full english translation of the last part of Chapter 6 (as of writing this). I might edit this in the future, when I learn more about the characters, though.
Anyway, let's get to it!
---
Riddle Rosehearts: Horrified. He fought, insulted, and lashed out at country personification. In terms of what they've seen, his overblot might as well be a tantrum. He's ashamed and will apologize to MC very much. When he calms down, he's very much interested in the laws of MC's country. Would also like to taste/see some traditional delicacies of the country.
Trey Clover: Pretty surprised. Though I bet he had a feeling that you weren't actually human. Again, the guy didn't speak up about this feeling. Anyway, he doesn't really change much afterwards. He is quite interested in the food of MC's country, though.
Cater Diamond: I feel like he would definitely be surprised; but not completely horrified or something. Like, his reaction is a lot more surprised than Trey but not as scared as Riddle would be. He wants to know just about anything about Mc's country; just tell him the interesting parts. Maybe some funny stories too.
Deuce Spade: Horrified 2.0. Except he's horrified cuz he showed an unsightly side of him TO A COUNTRY!! He counts this as disrespecting someone, so it will take a while for him to even be able to look into MC's eyes. When he does calm down, he'd definitely think it's really cool and ask about a bunch of stuff. He just wants to know everything about MC's country.
Ace Trappola: Pretty surprised, a tad angry, and mostly neutral. It will take him a while to process the information at first, but when he does, it's just nothing. The surprise is a pretty natural reaction; but Ace is angry cuz WHY DIDN'T MC TELL HIM?!?! Weren't they friends?! But other than that, he supposes that country personifications were pretty kept on the down low, so he learns to understand. He's not so interested about Mc's country, but if they decide to tell him about it, he might listen (depending on what it's about).
Leona Kingscholar: A bit 'meh' and not as surprised as everyone else here. He expected that MC would definitely be not human, and just didn't know exactly what they were. Now that he knows, it clears up confusion, and Leona moves on in life. If MC ever tells him stories about their country, he might listen if it interests him, or just fall asleep through it.
Ruggie Bucchi: He's obviously surprised. But his respect for MC goes up by A LOT. Other than that, it's pretty normal. He will ask for some of their country's traditional recipes and try recreating them to share with the kids back home and his grandma, but that's it. If MC tells him stories about their country, he'd probably listen, if its interesting enough.
Jack Howl: He's also surprised. He definitely didn't expect MC to be a country personification, of all things. But other than that, he's going to be a lot more respectful to MC, but will stop if MC tells him to. It won't be really obvious, but that's all he'll react to it, really. He won't treat MC really differently just because they're a country personification. His respect for them goes up by a lot, though.
Azul Ashengrotto: Horrified 3.0. He's scared of MC, because he actually tried scamming a country. But when he gets comfortable with MC, he won't change much. If they give him advice, he's a lot more likely to follow it, because he's aware of their experience. H's most interested in politics and law stuff of Mc's country.
Jade Leech: Quite surprised. But like Trey, he had a feeling that MC wasn't quite human. So this makes sense to him. He would definitely want to know more about MC's country. Jf MC ever tells him stories, he's most likely to listen to all of them.
Floyd Leech: Also pretty surprised. He didn't think or realize that his shrimpy would be a country personification. But other than that, he doesn't really care; it doesn't change anything. Depending on his mood, and what its about, Floyd might or might not listen to MC's stories.
Kalim Al-Asim: Completely amazed and blown away. He's really fascinated and interested. He doesn't have a negative reaction, and he's mostly positive about the new discovery. Kalim would listen to just about anything and everything MC talks about, especially if its about other country personifications, or their own history.
Jamil Viper: Pretty surprised, though he also had a feeling that MC wasn't completely human. Nevertheless, it doesn't change much about him. He might be a tad more respectful to them, but not so much. If MC tells him any story that seems interesting to him, he'd definitely be willing to listen.
Vil Schoenheit: Quite surprised also. Not horried or scared; Vil takes the new-found information in stride. His attitude to MC doesn't change at all, though he would like to know about the fashion and cosmetics of their world and country. If MC would tell him any stories about their world/country, he'd gladly listen while he does what he's doing.
Rook Hunt: Ooh la la. This guy probably also had a feeling and possibly knew? This would depend on the MC. But either way, Rook definitely had a big feeling that MC wasn't who they say they were. Now, he's even more intrigued of them. Whatever story they plan on telling him, he'll listen and even ask some questions. Other than that, his attitude also doesn't change.
Epel Felmier: At first, Epel would be quite mad, and also very surprised. Like Ace, Epel would be quite angry that MC didn't tell him sooner. But he' pretty surprised anyway. Definitely thought they were joking at first, but then realized they were serious. After calming down a bit, Epel takes everything pretty well. It does sometimes feel like a slap to the face whenever Mc shows qualities of their experience and wisdom, but he's gotten used to it. Epel would also definitely enjoy listening to any stories MC tells him.
Idia Shroud: Horrified 4.0. He's now very scared of MC (if he wasn't as scared before knowing). Would not want to approach them anymore. He's far too terrified of possibly angering them and that there might be some sort of punishment for him. Whenever he sees Mc, he just wants to bolt in the opposite direction now (he would if he could).
Ortho Shroud: His reaction is pretty similar to Kalim's. He's very fascinated, as there aren't any country personifications in Twisted Wonderland (or are there 👀/hj) so he definitely wants yo learn more. He tries to get his older brother to interact with MC, but often fails. He definitely listens (and probably records, with consent) to MC's stories, and find all of them very interesting.
Malleus Draconia: Also quite surprised. So it seems that his Child of Man isn't a Child of Man after all. Also definitely had a feeling that MC wasn't human, but didn't ask about it. He doesn't change all that much, but probably asks MC for advice a lot. Would listen to MC's stories, especially if he could learn a thing or two from them.
Lilia Vanrouge: Oh my, how interesting. This ancient fae would have a reaction quite similar to Malleus's. He also definitely had a feeling that MC isn't quite human. But other than that, he doesn't really change at all. He and MC would most likely like to share and exchange stories of their experiences.
Silver: He takes this pretty calmly. He is surprised, but doesn't see it as much of a big deal. I mean, Silver's father IS Lilia himself; he's seen and heard a lot of unbelievable things by now. He would listen to any stories MC tells if he could; but please don't get mad at him if he accidentally falls asleep.
Sebek Zigvolt: EXCUSE ME?!?! HOW?!?! Very surprised. Just. Completely taken aback. He shows MC a lot more respect and stuff than before. Anything MC tells him, he'll believe. Pretty similar to how Sebek is with Lilia. He's also definitely going to listen to any and every single one of MC's stories, no matter how ridiculous they are, and possibly take it seriously.
----
END!!
There it is! I apologize if some might be OOC, or something. If there is anything I can improve/change here, feel free to tell me so it can be a lot more accurate and true to the characters.
Again, comments and feedback are highly appreciated! Thank you!! 💙

PLEASE GOD THE PEN PAL AU WHERE OUGHweuygeugduuyh
*dances around with a silly spell and let's everyone live in a separate variation of the au bcs my goodness let Narancia and the others be happy for this scenario to work*
Imagine Narancia sending a letter to Jotaro when Jotaro comes over for some Marine Biology work decides to meet up with his old friend since it's been such a long time. Maybe some of the gang even meet up to see this "Cool Very Buff Tall Guy" (that's what Narancia describes Jotaro in my heart)
And the gang is absolutly baffled by how accurate Narancia's description of Jotaro is and they get to hear the absolutly wild stories they had like when Jotaro got set on fire and his insides were burning, Narancia what the hell-
Mista- *leans over to Nara* That is one very buff tall guy.
Narancia- Told you Mista.
to add more crack into this for sillyness, let's keep the light tradition of Trish having a tiny crush on Jotaro like she did in the Joots in Italy au in that one ask-
wait-....
*BASHES THE JOTARO IN ITALY WITH PEN PALS AU*
or alternatively
*BASHES HONOUR AMONG ASSASINS WITH PEN PALS*
I will now take my leave
*grabs you by the throat (affectionate)* GET BACK HERE BECAUSE YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS I AM LOVING THIS
just. at first the Bucci Gang don't fully believe Narancia about Jotaro. They know the guy exists and he and Nara are close, the kid has the letters to prove it and there's no way he could ever have that neat handwriting, but they also know Narancia has a tendency to exaggerate so they take all his stories with a grain of salt. They do sometimes react with scepticism but Narancia is very firm that No This Definitely All Happened Jotaro's Just That Cool It's Not My Fault You Guys Can't Grasp That >:/
I bet Narancia spent days trying to figure out how to photograph Aerosmith when he first got it so he could show Jotaro. Maybe this is what started Narancia's stories about the man since Wait You Know Other Stand Users? Unfortunately his attempts were unsuccessful and Narancia had to settle with a drawing which...... didn't turn out super great but it got his point across and Jotaro absolutely has it hung up in his office
and BIG yes to Jotaro visiting Italy before the insanity of Part 5. Maybe he visits a few months before everything goes down so he's able to meet everyone except Giorno. Maybe it was kind of a surprise visit, ie he waited a week or so before his visit to tell Narancia he was coming, and Narancia lost. His. Shit. He was practically bouncing off the walls in excitement, making so many plans to maximise how much fun they could have together since it had been YEARS since they last saw each other in person. Maybe Bucciarati even decides to invite him to one of their Family Team Dinners to get to know the man Narancia has spoken so highly of for all these years
meeting Jotaro in person was...... a definitely shock. When Narancia said Jotaro was Tall And Muscular they'd expected him to be that but by Narancia's standards. Plus, he'd mentioned several times he'd been 10~ so it stood to reason that description was based on how he'd been much smaller at the time. But nope, Jotaro's built like a truck and HUGE
and ofc, as you mentioned there's the absolute insanity that comes when the Gang realise "wait every single thing Narancia has said about this man is correct, wait-" Maybe Narancia even manages to wheedle Jotaro into showing off some of his scars as Evidence, which leads to some more stories which even Narancia hadn't heard yet and frankly paint a somewhat terrifying picture of exactly how strong Jotaro is
However, despite everything, Narancia would probably be very carful to hide the fact he was working in the mafia. Was he successful? Who knows. Jotaro definitely suspects there's something up, but Narancia is happy. Even through the letters Jotaro could tell Narancia was so much happier with the Bucci Gang than he'd ever been with his neglectful father, so he decides to let it slide
and things are going to get INSANE with the other two au merges. Joot in Italy is going to be a time, and you bet the second Jotaro walks into Libecco's he and Narancia do the Spider Man Meme because Wait A Fucking Moment-. Jotaro has half a mind to lecture Nara, but he's honestly in no position to do such a thing without the kid calling him a hypocrite. He and Narancia are going to make a surprising great team, with the latter also being sooooo smug about Jotaro proving all his stories right when he showcases his power
but then there's also the crushing terror when Jotaro nearly dies to the Boss. Because this isn't just a teammate, this is his dad/older brother who he's watching die before he eyes. He's forced to watch Jotaro's signal on Aerosmith's radar slowly fade away to nothing and he's helpless to do anything about it
This time, Narancia is one of the first people on the boat. The Boss nearly killed the one person who was there for him through everything. Who'd saved his life from Stands before he even knew what they were, who supported him when he decided to be a 'he,' who's letters made every day alone and in juvie so much more bearable
he's not running away again. Not this time
but THEN in Honor Among Assassins Narancia is going to be in p a i n. When they finally figure out there's another guy in the Squadra and he realises it's Jotaro he's going to be so conflicted. On one hand, he needs to do what the Boss orders, but on the other this is JOTARO
this emotional turmoil is only going to be even worse when he ends up figuring out why exactly Jotaro's sided with the the Squadra and that the Boss apparently killed Uncle Polnareff, which really sucks
(and if Jotaro never actually does anything to hurt Narancia...... well, that's nobody's business but his own)

Jason Carver SFW Alphabet
Tumblr media
I was struggling with my kas eddie thing so i decided to take a break and do something for Carver. i know hes an asshole but i do have a soft spot for him. his death was bs and he was clearly in need of help that he didnt get. a terrible waste that he went from the pep rally high to dead in a serial killers attic in less than a week.
anyways long post under the cut
Edit : I forgot j like an idiot fool.
A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)
I've gotta be honest. Jason comes across as a shallow air head. The basketball equivalent of sharpee from highschool musical. BUT if any of yall have seen sharpee’s stand alone show/movie thing you'll know she's not quite as shallow as people make her out to be. Jason's affection is like that. He seems at first blush to be a cool guy but you can't think of anyone who’d put them as their emergency contact. Their first call when shit hits the fan. Then you get to know him away from his meat head friends, he can be quite genuine. I don't think he has the forethought to do this on purpose, but he can be very unintentionally sweet and soft with his words. 
B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)
He's a very hands on best friend, especially if it came to a shared hobby like basketball, hiking or swim team. I think he’d have a hard time with stuff he doesn't like, to pick a completely random example, someone who likes DnD. He can be pretty dismissive of ‘that nerd shit’ whatever that might be, it's less out of meanspiritedness and more wanting you to fit in so you can still hang out without damaging his cred. Maybe not the most noble of ideas but it comes from a good place and you have to remember, he is only 18.
C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)
If you were alone or in a more closed off setting, yes I imagine he would like to cuddle. I can see Jason having a pastor dad who probably wasn't the most outwardly loving. He’s maybe a little cuddle starved. He seems like he'd be the type to throw his arm around your shoulder whenever he could, put his head in your lap or hold your hand in church. I don't think he's the type for spooning, probably not allowed to bring anyone home with him, but he might fall asleep against your shoulder while you watch a movie. 
D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)
I struggled with this one. Jason gives me very white upper class traditional roles sort of vibes. He absolutely wants to get married, in fact i think he’s the type to be planning his dream wedding and dream spouse for years in advance. But I also think he sees himself as the stereotypical man in the relationship. He's expecting to marry someone who’ll be a homemaker while he goes off to work, maybe follow in his fathers footsteps. Bit of internalised misogyny/ toxic masculinity i think. His parents would certainly expect him to do chores when he was younger, but it was on sufferance and it's stopped now he has to focus on college (maybe a basketball scholarship?) He's never learned to cook or clean for himself, even for the pleasure of making food only he wants. If you're into the whole, trad wife/ husband/ spouse thing, maybe this could work out. If not you're going to need to make that clear because jason has a hard time reading sarcasm  
E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)
Say what you will about Carver in season 4, he knows how to be a gentleman to his partners. He’d take you on a date to say goodbye and try his level best to go on good terms. I imagine you'd have to do something pretty egregious to force his hand but I can also see him being told you're not the right partner for him by his parents, then twisting his arm. It's pretty clear that if Chrissy had survived she was going to dump Jason and if Chrissy was an 8 out of 10 on the Jason pain scale, you're an 11. All that to say, oh boy is he going to take that hard. His friends might try to cheer him up with some sort of superficial lads night out but let's be real, there's only so long you can hang around someone miserable who won't cheer up. He's going to go hide in some sort of teenage angst misery pit listening to the 80s equivalent of Linkin park's Numb.  
F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)
Oh hell yes. Jason is so excited about being someone's husband. He loves partying, every teenager does, but he is so excited to settle down with his best friend and build a life with them. He seems the type to give out promise rings, like “we’ll be together when college is done” sort of thing. I imagine he’d want a decent engagement period, mostly so there's enough time to coordinate the wedding and organise it between your two families and pick the right date. I think he’d want a fall wedding, kids soon after so they are born in the spring/summer. 
G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)
I think what we see of him with a bad temper and even worse intentions is Jason at his absolute lowest. A snapshot of him at his worst possible moment and it shouldn't be taken as normal. He’s kind of jockish, physically rough and emotionally immature and I honestly don't think he’ll get that much better. He might mellow with age, get rid of all that nervous energy that seems to follow him about. And I doubt that boisterous playfulness will last forever too, so he will probably not be as rough and tumble by the time he's finished college.  I'm not saying you have to parent him but he does seem to need an actual adult to point him in the direction of maturity, talking through his problems instead of taking the huff or just letting things fester. 
H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)
I'd say so, yes he's a fan of hugs. He likes those little dancy swaying hugs you get when someone completely wraps their arms around you. I canon Jason as autistic so he likes the pressure and grounding effect they have. His hugs are wrapped a little too tight and he's just a little too into it. He definitely gets teased by his basketball buddies for how many hugs he gives you. 
I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)
I imagine Jason has been taught to never say that unless he really means it. Brought up to think if you say you love someone, it means you're going to marry them and we all know how important that is to jason. For that reason I imagine he’d be really really slow to say it. He’ll have been thinking about it for a long time, mentally adding it to the end of his conversations with you. 
K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)
J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)
He's not huffy so much as he is oh woe is me. Spirals a bit into self loathing when he thinks you have something better than him. Sometimes he goes a bit over board trying to prove he deserves you, trying to earn you back even though you're still with him and don't intend to leave.
He needs Therapy and a confidence boost.
Kinda chaste, short and sweet. He's not the makeout type normally, mostly just a quick peck on the cheek in the morning before class, a quick goodbye when he drops you home. He likes to kiss cheeks and hands and shoulders. I think he likes to have his neck and jaw kissed. He seems like he's ticklish, might devolve into a giggling fit if you blew a raspberry on his neck. 
L = Little ones (How are they around children?)
Hmm judging by his behaviour his parents seem a little absent . I'm betting like most boys in Hawkins he didn't exactly have a good male role model for fatherhood. I imagine he has a sort of idealised version of parenthood in his head that doesn't exactly line up with reality. He likes kids how he sees them in his head, having fun sitting with his daughter having a tea party, and teaching his son how to play ball. I don't think he's thought about all the late night feedings and nappy changing and wiping snotty noses. He's good with calm and fun kids but he has no clue how to deal with a fussy, scared or crying child. 
M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)
Jason is a fitness nut, not to mention his strict parents. He's up at the crack of dawn for church and a morning run, maybe doing laps in the pool before class. He's perfectly happy to let you lie on until he's done but he's the kind of annoying morning person who wants you to come with him and have fun. He likes to go out for breakfast dates. Actually he likes pancakes and waffles so much he could give el a run for her money. He'd have breakfast for dinner if he thought he could get away with it. 
N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)
Jason isn't failing any classes but that's mostly due to the fact he spends every moment he's not practising basketball and at church doing work. He doesn't really care too much about his grades, he's banking a lot on a free ride to a sporty college, he just doesn't want to incur his parents wrath and complaints of being a disappointment. He usually falls asleep with his nose in a boring book, maybe with you on the opposite sofa waiting for him to finish his work so you can go grab dinner. He's up at the crack of dawn most days so he's an early to bed sort. Doesn't mean he can't pull the occasional all-nighter for exams or victory parties. 
O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)
I think Jason is a nervous talker. He’ll info-dump about himself to just fill the silence. It’s all true stuff but it's just a constant stream of consciousness, rambling and going too fast for you to really take in. I imagine once he's past that initial awkwardness and the butterflies have calmed down, he’ll let a steady stream of things about himself be slowly revealed. For all his anxieties he's not super shy, does not hide things about himself and always caves when pressed. He’s not super deep, it's what you see is what you get with Jason 99% of the time. 
P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)
He’s pretty average. I think he has a hard time putting himself in other people's shoes a lot of the time, unless it's something he's experienced. Stuff he knows well he’s got a lot of patience for, things he doesn't understand get a lot of “why can't you just do X” or “c'mon Y cant be that hard” he doesn't get angry easily but he does get annoyed, exasperated even. He's a serial problem sorter by which I mean he says the phrase “do you want me to deal with Z for you” rather than just listening or letting you solve the thing on your own time. 
Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)
Jason is a lot like steve. He’s not stupid even if he isnt that book smart. He remembers a lot of little details and nuances and then does something daft like forget your anniversary. He's a little absent minded when he's focused on other things  but he is good at making it up to you. 
R = Remember (What is their favourite moment in your relationship?)
I mentioned above he doesn't remember big things even though youd think theyd be easier to remember. He's a bit of a romantic at heart: maybe something like meeting eyes across the carpark or hearing your cheer over the crowd when he scored the winning point at a game. 
S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)
After Chrissy left him for someone he thought of as inferior, Jason sort of developed a bit of a complex. He’s a little jealous but more in a sulky passive aggressive way than an outright hostile and accusatory way. When he knows he's upset you he gets pretty melancholic and self pitying “oh woe is me, this is why chrissy left me, i get it now you should leave me too for someone better” that kind of thing. For all his bravado he seems like he has a somewhat low opinion of himself outside of basketball and even that might be taken away from him if he survived the earthquake/upside down of Hawkins with injuries. He doesn't like to be physically protected, he'd rather fight his own battles. But I imagine he might like to have things sugar coated, no harsh truths or telling it like it is. Sometimes you need those harsh truths though so maybe protect him from taking it too hard? Just be gentle with him is what i'm saying.
Assuming he’s still able bodied after the whole, vecna incident, he’d definitely go to bat for you. If not, well he's not particularly cutting, quick or sharp witted. I think he might defend you with somewhat empty threats. But know this, able or not his team still has his back and by extension yours. One dude on crutches isn't much of a threat, but an entire varsity basketball team who wants to kick your ass is a pretty big deterrent to anyone who might mess with you. Less scary dog privilege and more scary wolf pack privilege.
T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)
Jason is sort of one note with his effort. He picks stereotypical date ideas, gifts and so on: flowers, chocolates etc. He doesn't do it intentionally, that's just what he assumes girls/guys/nb partners are meant to like. Wining and dining people are really the only string to his bow at the start, it's all he's been taught.  Like I said, he's a romantic so once he finds out more about you he’d try to bring those things into his dates. He loves aquarium dates, one of his special interests is sharks and sea life. I think he’d love it if you took him and just let him ramble for a few hours about jellyfish and deep sea creatures. 
U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)
He's got a habit of making things quite grandiose. He tends to blow things out of proportion, like good is great and bad is the worst. He's got a habit of giving lectures and speeches and so on. He can be quick tempered but it's usually just as quick to fade. I really put a lot of this down to immaturity. 
V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)
It's not his top priority, but he likes to look good for you, you know? Always showers in the morning and after practice at night, wears some nice but subtle cologne and keeps his hair
W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)
I don't think Jason as we know him has enough emotional complexity to put any thought towards the concept of completeness. He doesn't really get the concept of another half to make him whole in anything other than a religious sense. Maybe when he meets you it'll be the catalyst to realise he did feel like he was missing something and just never noticed it until now. 
X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.)
As I mentioned, i canon jason as autistic and absolutely adores sharks. I imagine his room is a mix of basketball trophies, photos from church and sea life stuff. He's got shark posters, ocean themed bedspread, a starfish lamp and maybe some sea world plushies on his bed. Lots of calming blues with a sand coloured carpet. Maybe he has an ocean themed music box from his childhood that he keeps by his bed. I can also see him with one of those jellyfish ceiling light covers. His room is hella childish but it's his and he doesn't want to change it. His dad probably hates it but his mom is just happy he's not trying to grow up too fast. Not like anyone has ever seen his room because he isn't allowed to bring partners back and his friends only want to see his pool and wine fridge. 
Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?)
He's kinda squeamish. I imagine if he had a partner with a uterus he’d get squicked out by blood from periods or childbirth. He’s not going to make it your problem but he has absolutely fainted when he saw someone get a nose bleed so maybe be careful around him during that time of the month. I think he might find spitting or smoking a deal breaker too. He's sort of a  “my body is a temple” type. Drinking is fine but he draws the line at drugs, even weed. He doesn't have THAT much of a problem with other people doing it but you aren't just any old person so i can see it being a point of contention. 
Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habits of theirs?)
Jason sleeps like a baby, all swaddled up in his blankets. He is a blanket thief and will literally pull you off the bed if it means pulling the covers towards himself. He does snore a little but is absolutely adamant he doesn't. Once he finally has his blankets he sleeps like a corpse: can't be woken by anything except his alarm and doesn't move a muscle for hours at a time, no tossing or turning and if it wasn't for the snoring you might not even think he’s breathing. 
i didnt intend to write for jason a lot but this was fun. if you wana talk more about jason hmu.

ive just been thinking about it so here are my initial thoughts
fucking marrok man. like wtf. i was legitimately excited for this guy, even though he kinda seemed like a one-note character, i was so excited to see what being an inquisitor was like after the empire was defeated, like it's almost a reversal of order 66 and now the hunters become the hunted. and if filoni has proven one thing, it's that making one-note characters more complex is kind of his specialty. but i GUESS NOT
the ahsoka-baylan duel...it was just not enjoyable for me. my interpretation is that they were trying for something similar to what obi-wan and maul did on tatooine in rebels, where they used lightsaber stances as non-verbal communication. in rebels it was obi-wan assuming his prequels/cw pose, then his original trilogy pose, then the pose that qui-gon used when maul killed him. maul thought he could use the same attack he did when he killed qui-gon, and his immediate defeat shows how obi-wan has thought about that day for years and years, and how he's always learning from his past, whereas maul only thinks about his past as a source of anger and motivation for revenge. in ahsoka they might have been using the stances to sort of gauge each other's knowledge of the jedi traditions, and i appreciate the different uses of this heavy reliance on star wars lore, but the payoff doesn't seem so satisfying. ahsoka dismisses talking about her past (and tbf, why wouldnt she, like this guy is trying to start another galaxy wide war) so we don't really get anything out of it all *SO FAR* i really hope the relationship between her and baylan evolves and this lightsaber thing becomes more important, but on the surface right now it just felt like another sorta boring lightsaber fight. but i would absolutely love to hear other people's thoughts on this and ill probably edit this once more people have seen it and posted about it
also where's zeb. we saw him in the mandalorian, we know he's there. where are you hiding him. we know he knows paul sun-hyung lee (i forgot his characters name). he would absolutely have come with hera. also morai
im usually a pretty conservative shipper, like i don't really care about ships (as long as they're ethical lmao) i just don't really engage with that part of fandom. i could get behind luke and ezra being together, there's some cool sun and moon imagery there and they sort of have contrasting stories, as @hashtagloveloses said once. zeb and kallus i don't mind either. but barrissoka is my everything. it is the one ship that i want to see SOOO BADLY FUCCCKK PLEASE DAVE YOU SAID YOU HAVE PLANS FOR BARRISS LIKE TEN YEARS AGO PLEASEE
but yeah shin and sabine would be pretty cool too, there's definitely a lot of tension there and even though we don't know much about her (i really want to learn more) it would be cool to see shin have someone truly care about her, not be her boss or anything, and have sabine learn to lean more into honesty expressing her affection, since she's always been really stoic and i think shin would need that sincerity in a relationship
and i already mentioned anakin in another post but fuck im so happy to see hayden chritsensen again man. even if his story is lackluster (which oh my god i hope it's not) im so happy to see him again ❤️
i also really hope anakin brings up some character development/exploration for ahsoka cause like. what has she been doing. this is probably the biggest problem i have with this show so far, or at least second biggest lmao. i like that they're taking time to explore different characters and relationships in the universe, but i really want to see ahsoka get more time to shine. when put in a leadership position, she's always been a little more serious (character development from that one time she led a while squad to their deaths cause she was careless), like when she was with the younglings when they got their kyber crystals, but that doesn't mean she's invincible/unfeeling. she has lots of feelings about anakin and obi-wan and ezra and sabine, and i really want to see them!! when she said it's better to destroy the map and lose ezra than let thrawn return and start a war, i want to see her struggle with that like sabine does because she misses ezra too! i get that she didn't want to talk about anakin with baylan but let her talk about him with someone else! hopefully her world between worlds experience will help with that. some of the most solid development we've seen with her so far is being upset by how much she's let people down, ie anakin, sabine. and baylan tries to play into that to make her feel bad. i feel like that certainly will be explored more but fuck. it's about time.
i also want to see her relationship with the jedi more fully explored. i had always assumed that, while she was deeply affected by order 66, she didn't regret her decision to leave the jedi order. i thought that barriss had shown her some of the problems with it, and that her supporting the siege of mandalore showed that she was able to pursue what she thought was important, not the jedi order who were being heavily controlled by the senate and the politics of the time. but she seems to feel guilty about the fact that she's not a jedi? that she somehow let them down by not confirming to a system she no longer believed in? idk if i just made that up in my head cause i like to think of it that way and that my hradcanon is interfering with my enjoyment of this show lmao, someone please tell me if it is
another big problem i have with the show so far is how much it relies on the audience being invested in these stories to supply dramatic weight. and i don't mean in the way that it doesn't explain who sabine, ahsoka, hera, jacen, etc. are, this is obviously a show specifically for cw and rebels fans and im all the way here for it. i mean theres very little substance here, it feels like mostly biding time until ezra and thrawn show up. like we're 4 episodes in and we've seen some relationship development for ahsoka and sabine, a bit of hinting at a backstory for baylan, and...a lot of good guy v bad guy race for the special map, which just isn't very enthralling cause we know someone's gonna get to thrawn and ezra, we all saw lars mikkelson in the trailer. what i really want to see developed is his response to him being seen as a sort of messiah that will bring the empire back. or why baylan is so certain thrawn will start another war, or still be loyal to the empire at all with their power, and therefore political value to the chiss, as well as palpatine, who was sort of keeping him in line, gone. i want something substantial out of these stories were invested in, not just fodder for "ooh who are we gonna see next?"
also how much you wanna bet that ahsoka uses the world between worlds to get to thrawn. like its lines and shit appear in the credits so it's probably important
but yeah that's about all im thinking about right now hopefully next episode is crazy, cause it sure is shaping up to be a doozy

Space Ghost Week
Tumblr media
Space Ghost Coast to Coast #68: “Waiting for Edward” | December 25, 1998 | S05E11
Ending the season on an episode that’s just fine. Denis Leary joins the Ghost with his acerbic brand of being a jerk. Denis plays it roughly how you’d expect, by acting very CYNICAL. He’s a cool guy who speaks his mind, and you gotta respect that. 
I’m a little at odds with myself, because I’m pretty sure that the first time I saw this I literally thought Denis Leary was ACTUALLY VERY FUNNY AND COOL. I still appreciate him on some level; he does embody a very 90s ‘tude that is generally “my bag”. In fact I bet you a million space bucks that I at one time or another referred to this as one of my favorite episodes just because it has Denis Leary in it. I really was that much of a loser. But I’ve grown up.* I’ve changed.**  Nowadays I just wish he would stop smoking and ranting, I got school in the morning, sheesh! I
This one starts with a very long “Waiting.” title card intro. I’ve been told that this episode aired with different variations where the music that plays during it is changed out. I remember one time noticing that in the program schedule for this episode they actually added “(version B)” to the episode title. I think Kon, who knows and is actually very good friends with Space Ghost, told me that it meant there was different music, and that it was on purpose. I think. He’ll correct me.
 I have to tell you something: I recently downloaded the Superjail episode “Superbar” as-aired as part of it’s stealth premiere on April Fools Day 2008. It was a “fine cut” version that wasn’t final, and it had the “Waiting.” title card at the start of it. Was “Waiting.” some kind of genuine internal Cartoon Network thing that played before the episodes instead of a more traditional countdown lead-in or production slate or whatever? 
This one also ends with, instead of an episode number, a little bug in the corner that designates this episode as belonging to the “100 series”. To this day, I don’t know what that means. When I was just watching these on TV in random order I assumed they actually had reached 100 episodes and decided not to count them after that. I was wrong, and I’m still baffled by it. In my comic “Early Conan” (which I’m not linking to because the web hosting is about to expire and I’m gonna move it somewhere else eventually) I actually included a “100 series” reference when I hit strip 100.
Notable moment run-down: the very long “Waiting” intro being interrupted briefly with footage of Space Ghost with Zorak on his shoulders, doing something mysterious. Zorak telling Leary that he’s seen all of his movies and that he didn’t think any of them were very good.  Moltar trying to get Space Ghost to say “nice jacket, Fonzie” to Denis. Denis dismissively telling Space Ghost that he only agreed to be on the show because his kids like it, and Space Ghost singing the line back “so the feelings of your stupid kids are more important than mine”. Space Ghost’s spit-take gag turning everyone red. Appearances from Brak and Lokar, who hasn’t been seen in a while. 
There’s also an appearance from the Cartoon Gang, who did somewhat lengthy interstitials between shows on Cartoon Network. It was just a group of kids discussing cartoons. They weren’t too beloved, and they seemed like the product of a craven attempt to be more outwardly kid-friendly by putting real kids on camera. I didn’t really remember them at all, but for some reason I have strong memories of Evan Dorkin hilariously bad-mouthing them during a Space Ghost commentary track. In their thankfully brief segment, Space Ghost bores them to tears about “saving Christmas” and then yells at them for being layabouts. Christmas gets a special thanks in the credits. Hilarious. Hey, when did this air, anyway? I don’t feel like looking up.
That closes out another Space Ghost Week. We’ve only got one more Space Ghost Week for classic Ghost, then I’ll probably do another one covering the dreaded GameTap episodes. Until next time, uh… I can’t think of a Space Ghost reference to put here. Oh well.

MAIL BAG
Tonight we resume our Adult Swim programming. Yippee! Here are a bunch of SG Mail Bags:
it's a line from the smash hit mario movie. don't read the trades much, do ya?
I’m afraid I don’t believe you that Merrill Markoe’s dead dog Lewis is in the Mario Movie and that they say “Lewis Lectures here we come!”. I’m willing to be wrong about this, though.
its hard to explain how cool kevin smith was to people who were too old or too young to be there.
He’s simply too weird for words nowadays. But man, the run of Clerks, Mallrats, and Chasing Amy was gigantic if you were an easily-impressed teenager who liked indie movies in the 1990s. I sorta admire him for trying new-ish things after that though. I Stan Tusk.
Meeting!
(doing the three stooges “hello” thing) (Jason Mewes, revealed to be napping at Kevin Smith’s feet during his Space Ghost interview) “heh-leoh”
any tips for anyone looking into getting into space ghost?
I can see how it might be tough getting to Space Ghost; especially since younger people might not be able to latch onto it for various reasons. Saying to check out episodes based on the guests can backfire, and I’m sure some viewers consider all the guests to be impossibly ancient.
I got into Space Ghost by seeing whatever episodes were on randomly. References to other episodes would pique my interest and they’d pay off later when I finally got to them.
At some point I’ll probably produce a list of best episodes of Space Ghost, but I won’t right now. You could do worse just finding random “best episodes” lists or sorting one on IMDB.
If you’re the type of person who compulsively starts with a full chronological watch-through regardless of the advice you receive saying to do otherwise, I’d say do this: get whatever you can get your hands on (DVDs, torrent, streaming [it’s getting yanked from HBOMax soon]) and just go with that even if it’s missing stuff. Fill in the gaps later. Please know that the early episodes might not be the funniest things ever, but this is also one of the rare comedies that actually gets funnier as it goes along. There’s going to be references you don’t get, There’s still stuff about the show I don’t understand, either. 
This might be unorthodox but: Maybe watch the episodes or seasons in backwards order? That’s actually probably a very good idea. Okay, yeah, actually, just do that.

Clone Brett (hurt & comfort)
“I’m sorry, that was stupid of me to expect. I’ll makes sure to come home more often.”
Brett rewound the phrase in his head.
“I’ll make sure to come home more often”
“I’ll make sure to come home more often”
“I’ll make sure to come home more often.”
Brett was hyperventilating in the bathroom trying not to cry.
1 Day earlier
They greys were once again making they’re yearly contact with the company to trade their confused human specimens for fresh ones.
The meeting had come after a call with his dad. His dad would let Brett list what he was doing with life and say “so nothing worthy of note.” And then hang up. It was their tradition! After which Brett would try to call his mother and she would say “Oh, it’s you again.” Before telling him what exciting new thing she was doing that was making her unable to talk. This time it was getting her nails done while learning Cantonese. That was their tradition.
Which was great and all. It was good to connect with family, but it also left him kinda in the dumps.
He kinda wanted to talk to his best-work-buddy Reagan about it- but she was busy preventing her own father from creating an intergalactic incident. His problems seemed kinda… small potatoes.
(No Dr. Claratin told you not to diminish your own problems based on others. Your feeling of hurt are valid and do deserve to be adressesd. Just try to intuit when others do not have the emotionall facilities to handle them)
Reagan did not seem to have the emotional facilities to handle his bummedness now.
But one of the Grey-alien guys was really cool about it and let him talk it out and then offered to teleport him to a place where he could “just be by himself.”
Brett then found himself in the dark.
Brett had no idea whether he’d been teleported to a bunker or a pocket dimension, and let out a small yelp while flailing around for a light switch.
His hand caught something plastic and the lights turned on to show a room  lab equipment, robotics, and theories scrawled on a cork board.
It looked like… Reagan’s. He knew her hand writing, and he recognized the robotic assistance arms that were signature to any lab she was in.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
That- that made sense. Of course Reagan would have a secret lab hidden away from her father. That was just Reagan-y. And it meant she was probably planning cool counter attack plans against him. Brett was glad to see it. When her father first got hired she seemed like she was spiraling, and it was comforting to see that she hadn’t given up hope to get things right again.
And of course, any lab Reagan hid from her father would be as private and secluded as possible. It was the perfect place for the Greys to send him. No one but Reagan would be able to find him here- and she’d be busy for at least a couple more hours with her father.
He hoped she did find him.
He hoped she noticed he was gone.
What was he talking about- of course she would, they were buisness-friends-forever, best-buisness-friends-forever. She’d notice.
Brett heard a sound outside, and let out another manly scream before opening the door and shouting
“Reagan? Is that you?” Out into the hallway.
In the hallway was a version of himself carrying muffins and asking the exact same sentence.
The mirror version of himself widened his eyes. And dropped thee muffins.
 All of Brett’s people-pleasing attributes kicked in.
“I’m so sorry I didn’t mean to make you drop that-“
“No it’s fine. I got it. there’s another tray in the oven I always make extra-“
“It’s no trouble I’ll just pick up a few. You have a broom?“
“Yeah, in the closet right outside the lab”
They froze each clutching floor muffins in their arms.
“How did you get here?-“
“-Who are you?”
