Community Participation: Skel’s Choice Entries

We’ve got a few entries already!

thejollybeardcollection

I can't imagine him really going backto her after so much time but neither can I see him just leaving her to rot, he's a FGG :)

sirenc0re

personally i gravitate towards the "skel accepts her but they dont get along like they used to". idk how long it wouldve been since they last saw each other, but they'd definitely be different people by the time they reconnect. but, even if they arent lovers anymore, perhaps the chance for a strong friendship would still be open? after all, jasenia knows more about skel than really any of the good guys. the foundation is there i think ^_^

Anonymous asked:

Here’s what I’m thinking for Skel and Jasenia reuniting and his choice. At first Skel rejects her, acting cruel and petty but more aggressive then his usual jackassery. He tells the crew to take her right back to her husband, that he doesn’t care about her, she burned that bridge, etc… . Doing all this to hurt Jasenia and release all his pent up resentment and pain. During the journey back to the palace he and Jasenia fight a lot, the two bickering and arguing over just about everything.

Realizing just how much they have both changed, yet nuggets of their old selves still remain. The arguing dies down as his jackass mask begins to crack and they start actually talking, finding out what happened to her for all those years. He finds out about all the horrible things her husband has done to her over the years and Skel is LIVID! His inner good guy and old self telling him that she can’t go back, that while he’s still hurt he couldn’t live with himself sending her back to that creep.

This all being sparked by Jasenia doing something profound. Skel comes to the revelation that while he’s still hurt, that while he resents her betrayal he’s still in love with her after all these years. And that she feels the exact same way. I can imagine Skel doing one of two things. A) Convinces the crew to tell Jasenia‘a husband she’s dead so she can run away to Drifters Hollow with them. Or B) Skel decides to get revenge against her abusive husband. They return to the palace but just as

Their about to hand Jasenia off Skel intervenes and embarrasses the hell out of the guy infront of his whole court! Using his telekinesis on him and pointing out how awful a husband he is. The crews mortified but Jasenia joins him, revealing the truth of her kidnapping and makes a big show of leaving him. After narrowly avoiding execution their back together! Skel agreeing to take her back but only under the condition that she never betrays him like that again, to which she agrees.

Skel and Jasenia’s relationship isn’t the same as it used to be and their starting back at square one. However he realizes that maybe that’s a good thing, cause then they can build something new together! Better and stronger then it ever was before.

Anonymous asked:

Maybe they could become friends instead, as I feel that they can’t exactly be good lovers to one another due to their respective messed up relationships. Maybe they could even decide they don’t need A romantic lover to feel content with their lives, and instead they can help one another in fulfilling their respective goals!  

It seems like folks are more or less on the same page about this...but don’t be afraid to keep sending ideas! I won’t even be able to start on this story for quite some time, so entries will be open until then. Thank you guys for your help so far! These answers give me some much needed inspiration and perspective. These are excellent nuanced ideas!

As always good luck with school dude! :) Haha all I've got is Toki and Pickles playing old video games. Or the buff lady Klokateer squad having a relaxing day off? XD

and as always TYSM - Almost done with the school year!

I tried to do a little bit o’ BOTH

i was thinking of pickles and toki doing matches of arcade Mortal Kombat brutally crossed

...which then i got herb’d and thought of sketchin a cursed rough MK DK vs title card

they played for a total of thirty minutes and then went into the kitchen for the remainder of the night dissecting lunchables

for the klokateers since Summer is rolling along, I thought about the beach and bbqs and bonfires and blended it into a lil doomstar-illuminated hangout - I like thinking that Nathan would let the gears take whatever meat they want that he brings to the haus after his hunting trips, so they are cookin’ from his selection (ft a halibut they caught), to soon enjoy their grub as the sun sets

#thejollybeardcollection #fan fart #metalocalypse #cw: drugs #cw: flashing lights #toki wartooth #pickles the drummer #klokateer #the ocean tide is too scared to touch them it keeps its distance #I was thinkin when i first read the ask to do mk or smth much older #as i used to be OBSESSED with mk as a kid #and then when i saw that clip of the lady smoking at her desk grinding through sub zero as motaro #twas a sign

[frienderbender]

Gotta love rainy days. I hope you're not too bored. :) More MagPickles with pet rats? Or just MagPickles in general haha? But only if you wanna. :)

me too! rainy days are great. im sure ill find something to do haha and ofc ill draw some mag and pickles :] i will never say no to drawing these two

#my art tag #asks #thejollybeardcollection #ive been thinking about a companion comic to the one from a little while ago #one from mags POV. its a different scenario but follows similar themes and it would parallel the first one #hmmm thinking emoji

[sourbat]

Any combination of Magnus, Toki, and/or Pickles with 13, 19, and/or 20? Yeah I’m living up to stereotype here. XD They’re all I can think of that isn’t original fic atm. :D

playing with each other’s fingers

Pickles loves painting Magnus’ nails. Despite the older man’s jests, the act had less to do with him occasionally applying coats on Nathan’s nails–back when the band was still together– and more to do with his old stint with Snakes N’ Barrels. Toki doesn’t get it, but neither man expects him to. Whether it be ten minutes, days, or years, some habits are harder to remove than others. It’s a lesson built from experience, in which Pickles and Magnus are overflowing. So when basic cable fails to provide suitable entertainment, Pickles takes Magnus’ hand in his, graces the underbelly with a playful tickle from his fingers before locking his hand in Magnus and declaring it time for a new coat. Then, a generous amount of pulling and splaying fingers apart. They keep forgetting to buy a new bottle of nail remover, so as Toki mindlessly flips through the channels, Pickles and Magnus scratch at his nails. Magnus jokes about the mess they’re making while Pickles tugs a little too hard and pops a finger joint.

“Hey,” Magnus says with a grunt, then tries retracting his arm from Pickles’ spry hold. He doesn’t get it very far; within moments of his discontent registering, Pickles clasps Magnus’ hands, reeling him back in.

“Sawrry, dood,” he teases, then places a quick peck on Magnus’ middle finger before twirling his fingers free. “Din’ mean to cause any trouble. Yet.” He watches Magnus’ barely offended expression soften to a smirk, and in the corner of his eyes, Pickles catches Toki bring his own finger up to his mouth before motioning an exaggerated gag.

"Ugh, ams so gays."

one time, when my dad was working at a law firm for the first time, he was talking with another attorney who was an older conservative man.  during the conversation, the higher-up said “all that's solid melts into air” and my dad was like “whoa, did you just quote the communist manifesto?”  the higher-up tried to argue with him, insisting that my dad was wrong about the quote’s origins.  then my dad was like “okay, i’ll look it up so this can be a valuable learning experience for all of us”. 

but this was in the 90s, so my dad couldn’t pull out his phone and look it up, but he didn’t have to because he just reached into his briefcase and pulled out his glossy, leather-bound copy of the communist manifesto.  while my dad was excited to go on this little impromptu research adventure, this other attorney was horrified, thinking that my father was some kind of “evil communist spy”.  he’s not.  he’s just a nerd who loves books and the bookstore he went to before work that day was selling this super nice and fancy copy of the communist manifesto and he couldn’t not buy it (the irony is not lost on either of us).  also at that time he’d describe himself as more of a socialist, but idk where he would stand now.  anyway that’s it.

(Metalrat) Aww hell, I need to know 15 and 18 for Magnus. :D

everyone wants magnus to cry!!!! kdfjgdfkjgd i get it, i mean, so do i :p also trigger warning for the second question, mentions of suicidal thoughts, just a heads up.

15. What it takes to make them cry:

okay here’s a few more things hehe... if someone treats him gently/soothingly when he’s incredibly ill or in pain, he can’t take the tenderness ;~; any sudden reminder of his mother will zap his heart a bit, and if he doesn’t distract himself like ASAP he can start crying if he’s alone or with toki. also any time he thinks too long about toki’s childhood that usually does him in as well. OH, and how could i possibly forget the all-consuming guilt he feels constantly about hurting toki the way he did? any time that bubbles to the surface he’s lost to the world for a while.

18. Things they’ll never admit:

has a lot of very dark thoughts that he’ll never put words to because he knows how awful they are (mostly violent, intrusive thoughts directed at himself, but also directed at others at times). uhh, will probably never admit (especially to toki) all the times post-doomstar he came close to killing himself again. and will probably never admit that feeling hasn’t fully gone away (he gets to a point where he doesn’t want to act on it, but it’s still a thought he entertains in sort of a “well at least i’ve got an Out if this all goes to shit” marc maron type of way)

#magnus.......... ;~; #thank you razz!! #thejollybeardcollection

I can’t remember if I sent you some WIzp eyes so here they are! 👀

hello i remember you sent me some magnus/pickles prompts a while back so i was trying to find you something from my 25k word hell fic and then i realized... i write them gross, like, extremely gross, just two dudes being absolutely disgusting together, and, well, it’s nearing lunch time and i don’t want to do that to ya so... here they are, having a conversation

“It’s not like I’m askin’ to join back up or anything--you guys have a good thing going, and I’ve got my own irons in the fire, and I wouldn’t want to fuck that up,” Magnus says, but he leaves the sentence hanging.

“Yeah,” Pickles says a little too quickly.  The state of Magnus’ apartment suggests these irons are not very hot and not very profitable.

(Metalrat) A sentence for you! Wind combed through her hair, fanning it behind her shoulders as she turned to him with a smile to say, “So, where are we going?”

Send me a sentence and I’ll write the next 5 .

thanks for indulging me in this Razz :’) 

There was the fun in keeping things a surprise for her, after all, she deserved a nice night out, but he was also not sure if she even needed more surprises in her life. There was always the fear that he was pushing her too far even if she said otherwise; she was strong and he knew that. It didn’t help his anxieties though, no matter how hard he tried to get himself to believe that he wouldn’t end up harming her. Just like the past few months, he swallowed those feelings down as he only briefly looked at her with that usual grin before his eyes darted back to the road, “I don’t wanna say just yet but I can give a hint; that place we used to visit often is still around.”

@thejollybeardcollection: Catra as Queen of the Fright Zone with consort Glimmer? Or Catra as consort of Queen Glimmer of Bright Moon? Or something something Horde Glimmer x Catra? I just want more of these two and I'm craving evil, fluff, and/or evil fluff. XD

oof not going to lie, not my strong suit haha. but I’ll try!

/ / / 

“I think someone is plotting an assassination,” Catra decides to announce in the middle of their cuddling session.

“Wait, what??” Glimmer yelps, jolting upright. “Who? Why? I’ll get them first-- give me the name!”

“It’s, uh, just a rumor for now,” the Fright Zone Queen explains as she sits up as well, fumbling over her words. Despite being a public figure, communication has never been her strong point. 

But Glimmer immediately thinks that she’s being weirdly calm about all of this… Shouldn’t she be freaking out right now? Or executing someone? Knowing Catra, it’s not like her to pass up an opportunity to ruin someone’s life. Something else must be going on...

And then, Catra asks, hesitantly, “... Will you stay with me tonight? I just feel… safer, when you’re around.”

Oh. Ohhh.

Glimmer gets it, now.

It's one of the weird benefits of being the evil Queen's consort. You see the soft parts of her.

“Hmm... Bold of you to trust me enough to sleep beside you without slitting your throat,” Glimmer teases, in good ole dark Horde humor.

Catra cracks a smile. “I sleep with one eye open.”

Glimmer scoots closer to the Horde queen, who reflexively closes her eyes and parts her lips.

Instead, Glimmer places a gentle kiss on top of her eyelid. 

Next, she kisses under Catra’s jaw, right over the vein. She holds it there. Feels the beat of the pulse against her lips.

She takes Catra’s hand, flips it over. Kisses the delicate, fragile skin of her wrists.

Catra hisses softly. As if to ask, “are you threatening me?”

Their hands intertwine, tightly. Glimmer rests her forehead against Catra’s. Yes, she might be.

“You’re a terrible liar,” Glimmer murmurs.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

[sourbat]

2, 3, or 13 with MagPickles if you are so inclined (Toki too if you really wanna bring in the ot3). Platonic, in a relationship, any combination. :) They’re all I can think about today. XD

2.running fingers through hair/3.hiding face in neck/13.nudging the other one

I managed to get all three done. For all three.

Enjoy :)

It was Pickles’ turn to do the dishes, which sucked balls since Toki was trying his luck with Italian. He scrubbed through layers of tomato sauce and cheese, building one hell of a burn in his neck before finally draining the sink and making a return to the living room. When he turned the corner he saw the screen, followed by Magnus’ illuminating profile. With the television acting as the only light source, Pickles didn’t see Toki nestled in the loveseat, not right away, and was ready to jump on top the cushion and openly complain about using his nails to scrape off burnt mozzarella when Magnus suddenly purred a low, sultry sigh.

A hand slide up the man’s chest, and when Pickles squint, realized Toki was tucked comfortably on top of Magnus, his lower half obscured by a shared blanket, his face buried in Magnus’ neck. With some concentration, Pickles could make out each delicate peck behind Magnus’ airy snorts.

There came another hidden kiss, one so sensual it made Magnus turn and partially reveal Toki. “Stop that.”

He blew a few strands of Magnus’ hair from his face, then cheekily replied, “No.”

Pickles hesitantly stepped into the living room. “Hey guys.”

“Oh, Pickles.” Magnus’ eyes flickered. “Back so soon?”

Coming from Magnus, a question like that could mean a million and one things. Pickles did his best not to take it at face value.

“No tanks to Toki,” he answered with a shrug, then glanced at the two set of eyes now aimed curiously at his sinking shoulders and chewed lips. “You two lookin’ a little busy.”

“You’re welcome to join,” Magnus remarked, gesturing with a smile.

Was he? Pickles rubbed the heels of his socks into the wooden flooring. This was still so new to him. Back in the day, he orchestrated threesomes, but those had always been with groupies. This was him walking on an established intimate scene between a couple. Well, not a regular couple. The clowns had invited him to join the circus troupe, and Pickles, the fool that he was, agreed to it. So they were all in this together, unless, of course, only two of them wanted to get at it, which was totally allowed. And how did he know this wasn’t one of those moment?

“Pickle?”

“Huh?”

Magnus and Toki were both sitting upright in the couch. They had pushed themselves towards one side, creating just enough space on Magnus’ left to fit one small, pickle-sized person.

Pickles bit his tongue. “You guys really din’ have tah–”

“Pickles, sit your flat, white ass down.”

The demand couldn’t have come at a more perfect time. Hot crimson flushed across his face as Pickles let out a relieved snort that just barely passed for annoyance.

“Fine, whatever,” he grumbled, and stiffly shuffled into the awkward scene.

“Aw, yeah! Pickles ams going to cuddles with us.”

It was a cozy fit in the loveseat. Ideally it would have been better to just move to the couch, but their shared stubbornness insisted they could find some balance. Pickles was thankful for the persistence.

Eventually, both Toki and Pickles found a comfortable position that allowed them both to rest on top of Magnus, with Toki positioning his head against Magnus while Pickles, the smaller of the two, curled under his arm. The results were less than perfect, but whenever Pickles tried to locate a frown, uncomfortable stare or anything to give him a reason behind his self-doubt, only detected smiles and commentary as the next match began. Toki broke from Magnus to clasp his hands together in excitement as a wrestler’s theme song started to play. Pickles was right about to ask who the giant with the cowboy hat was, when he felt his dreads get pulled and played with by long, twirling fingers.

“Hey.” Pickles nudged Magnus with his elbow. Not the typical shove or jab of his yester years designed to shove or hurt or enact petty revenge, but a gentle prod meant to garner the man’s attention, and only his attention.

Magnus picked up on the hint.

“Hmm?” he asked, voice low and eyes not leaving the screen.

Pickles stared out, his mind concentrated on the shared heat making its way towards him, and Magnus’ large hand rubbing it way down to the roots.

His eyelids fell. “Tanks…”

“No problem, Pickles.”

(Metalrat) 12 and 44 for Hammertooth? :)

YAYYY THANK YOU! :’D

12. Is there a wedding? What was the proposal like? Any kind of honeymoon?

OHHHH MY GOD okay i’ve thought about pickles and charles’ wedding a LOT but thinking about toki and magnus’ wedding is like... it makes me too emotional. ;~; i think the proposal might’ve been magnus’ idea, which freaks him the fuck out that HE of all people would be wanting to propose to anyone or have a wedding or any of that shit. but he wants to be with toki forever, and he knows toki will love it, so he has a very awkward/nervous talk about it with pickles and makes some plans and gets a ring (nothing crazy, just something small he can afford with his own money). they probably go the aquarium for an anniversary or toki’s birthday or something, and magnus proposes in the moon jelly room. doesn’t get down on one knee though (he’d need help getting back up kjfghkdjf)

the wedding is probably something really cute but very lowkey. toki’s mom and magnus’ sister are there. pickles and charles. skwisgaar, murderface, dick. probably twinkletits. not sure if nathan and abigail would come (plus i think at this point they’d be too busy taking care of their new baby, so maybe they use that as an excuse). i think by this point they’re living in hawaii, so they can probably find someplace really beautiful for the ceremony. i need to give it more thought. ;~;

as for the honeymoon... it’s disney. you KNOW it’s gotta be disney. and toki uses his star power to get them all the best treatments, cut all the lines, the works.

44. Are the comfortable with each other? Anything they have to have their privacy for? 

they are sooooo comfortable with each other, yes. after all the shit the two of them have gone through together? even aside from doomstar... magnus has been thrown up on, hugged toki through hysterical snot-crying, and dealt with him peeing in bed while drunk. meanwhile toki has guided magnus through SO many panic attacks, helped him go to the bathroom, and even used to shave him and brush his hair and rub the sleep out of his eyes when Magnus was in the hospital :’) so yeah they end up knowing each other inside and out. not a ton of mystery left. magnus, however, still keeps a very things to himself (mostly fleeting, intrusive thoughts he knows would only upset toki). and toki for a long time is still pretty skittish/uncomfy with testing his blood sugar or taking insulin in front of magnus. (magnus tried to do it right when he had toki captive but he wasn’t careful enough and made him pretty sick. it was a good thing dethklok came along to get him when they finally did)
