(even so c2 still not posting their current gf in their main account, unlike with their exes) (and forget it about their gf reputation, idk and i dont wanna care about their past life im sure the boys are mature enough to let in someone to their private life) (even if the girlies maybe just used as a coverage but still women support women)

Selfish
Tumblr media
TW: Smut. Angst/arguments. Language. 
SUMMARY: Sarah’s reaction after finding you, her best friend, with her brother. 
WORD COUNT: 1100
REQUESTED
Anonymous asked:
Sarah walking in on reader (her best friend) and rafe and she gets mad because why would you date rafe after she told you how bad he is and why would he date her best friend but you get mad at her too and before Rafe can defend you you tell her she’s being selfish and that it’s her fault that she started hanging out with rafe because she hasn’t seen her at all since she started dating John b and rafe is like yeah fuck you sarah and enjoying seeing her gf mad at his sister and he thinks is kinda hot
Selfish
The way he felt pistoning in and out of your sobbing sex was enough to ignore the warnings made against him from his sister and your best friend, Sarah. You weren’t a stranger to his reputation for being intense and reckless, but it was also a large part of what it was that drew you to him to begin with. The sensation of his breath stealing your own through self-serving kisses had eradicated the wrath you knew he could harbor behind those same fingers now rushing over your curves as he sunk himself deeper inside of you. 
“You feel so good, baby…” He groaned into your shoulder as your nails ate into his while you brought him further into you. Your bodies came together in a perfect collision of need and relinquishment, one folding as the other consumed. It always existed this way as you seemed to truly feed off of one another in every circumstance, but no more than when nude and driven solely by lust. 
His nails ran down your back as you rocked against his hips as those eager fingers now wrapped at the back of your neck. 
“You’re gonna make me come…” He grunted, “you feel too good…”
“Don’t I always?” You teased. 
“Yeah,” He groaned, fingers tightening into your skin. “But this time it’s gonna be-”
“What the actual fuck?!” Sarah’s voice boomed behind you as Rafe was quick to ignore and allow his annoyance to broadcast over his face as you felt a twinge of guilt when seeing the betrayal in her expression. But you couldn’t deny how a part of you was relieved she finally knew.
“After I told you to stay away from him? God, are you that desperate to get fucked that you’ll just take it from anyone?” Rafe went to defend you, but you would beat him to the punch, climbing off of his lap and wrapping yourself in the sheets, as he dressed behind you. 
“I have a right to be with who I want, just like you do with John B-”
“What does this have to do with him?!”
“If not for you ignoring me this last summer,” You motion between you and Rafe, “THIS might never have happened. But it has, so just get over it, Sarah-”
“You have no idea what I’ve been through-”
“It’s ALWAYS about you. I keep trying to be a friend-”
“Yeah some friend, fucking my brother behind my back.”
“You’re just selfish, Sarah. Thinking that you are the only one who can be happy-”
“HE makes you happy? What? With the lines of cocaine or threatening me and my friends?”
“God, do you hear yourself? It’s always about you!”
“Just fuck off, Sarah.” Rafe groaned, his hands pulling you back towards him at the edge of the bed as you were taken into his lap. The shameless display of care and sensuality made her even more enraged. 
“Then don’t expect me to give a shit when he breaks your heart.”
“I wasn’t because he won’t.” You shot back as she shook her head. 
“You two are perfect together. Both idiots.”
“Fuck you Sarah!” You finally spat. “I’m so tired of you always tearing me down and dictating my life. I was there through John B, Topper, even the ones before them. I have given up dates and weekends-happiness all to be a good friend and I’m actually happy and you tear at it because you know you and John B are doomed!”
“You have no idea-”
“I don’t? How far do you think it’s gonna go when the excitement wears off and reality sets in? You don’t belong on The Cut and he doesn't belong in Figure Eight. You will go off to college and meet someone else and he’ll hold you back and you’ll let him. Don’t be pissed off because the world stopped revolving around you, Sarah. And grow up…” You managed to walk her into the hallway outside of Rafe’s room as you spoke. “Now if you’ll excuse me, you interrupted something-” You shut the door, locking it this time, before turning to find Rafe standing in the center of the room. 
“Get the fuck over here…” He groaned as his words and expression had taken you completely off guard. “Get on the bed. Hands and knees right fucking now…”
“That turn you on, Rafe?”
He forced your hand to his cock, feeling him at attention for you once again. 
“Ass. Up. Now.” You bit your bottom lip, dropped the sheets, and crawled before him. A single slap to your left cheek would make you gasp before you felt him return to his home between your thighs. 
“So fucking sexy all proud to be mine. Let her fucking hear it.” He ordered as he pulled your hair so your face was no longer buried in the pillows in front of you. 
“YES! RAFE! DON’T STOP! DON’T FUCKING STOP!”
“Yeah baby? You wanna come on my cock, right?”
“I’M SO CLOSE!” You belted as he scoffed behind you. 
“I can feel how close, baby. Let me have it…come on sweetheart…let me fucking have it.” You nodded, a series of groans, grunts, and pleas leaving your lips as he brought you to that edge, just as your body served as his outlet. And yet, as you expected him to pull himself out to face you, he only pulled you to his chest. 
“You’re gonna squirt for me baby…I’m not stopping until you’re fucking shaking-”
“I already am…”
“If you can still talk, still walk, then I’m not done…I want all of you, all spent out for me. Call me selfish…” He shrugged, finding irony in his words as this had been one of the warnings she had offered you, only realizing that all of those threats she made had only been in your benefit. A benefit he used thoroughly, frequently, and with a continuously satisfying result…

Fucking kissing stupid people, fuxking ruining shit. Fucking can’t talk to s. And both her best friends were in the club that Friday for latin night. And one I greeted and all and the other idk well. But I know. Something something. The cousins friend flirted with me Friday and that one um yes cute. The cousin I kiss, the other cousin was being too much too when he has a gf well now over. And the 3rd cousin who likes me and acts different everytime he drinks now and went last night and a fucking mess sleeping in the car and stayed the time there while at the club. The good thing he didn’t come Friday but ruin today. My friend tire pop. Her driving a mess. But all want to come for me. The other guy that went was chill. I got fucking drunk and getting shots. And one gave me a free one. And I was all over guys as usual. If I wasn’t with them I would be even worst because they hold me back and just babysitting me… so pathetic I am. And I do not know who I became or maybe this has been all the time but I was just depress affffffffff to really be this me. My friend I did so fucking wrong last night.. she came but went to a different club and I went to another one. She had no service and my stupid self should of gone…. I hate myself. I drunk texting her and it was just Jdbdkdnd fuck. She said I betray her and shit. I felt so bad now. Idk what to do. How to make it up. We were going to this other club to meet these others.!but fuck… plus we were late because this friend and her bringing this dude just to be drunk passed out. I drink soooo fucking much… that I do not get any hangovers… it doesn’t affect me… I drink so much. I need a break. I need you. Just you. Because these other two… one I can’t because she’s above me and the other is just huh. So nada. And these guys are just guys…. And manyyyyyyy…. Maybe 30 guys who liked me since you don’t want me, since you don’t choose me. Since you don’t forgive me.. since you don’t give me one chance….. one….. and I would leave it all behind. Just.. for you. And yes I am the biggest idiot in the world. You would cheat for me and practically you have…and idk dude. Do you know who I use to be when we met??? Because you I don’t know of your life but you seem the same to me and that girl talking to me. I miss you. And these people think I want them but they do not know about you. And maybe I’m having fun. Maybe I’m just enjoying my time. Maybe that’s all… just in the meantime.. I’m killing time so I see you soon??! Or maybe I’m so stupidly blind and bonded to you without reason. The trauma… the comfort.. I have no idea. But you fuck my world up. Even when I do not think of you… bitch you stay there. I don’t think of you in clubs or drinking but boom sober… boom.. and if we weren’t unblock and if I stay updated with your life maybe I would be drunk calling it saying things. Maybe we would be doing it every single night. Maybe I’m addicted to the only love I felt. You are what love is. You are what I wanted .. I fucked uo the whole thing. I know. I wasn’t honest. I was not loyal. Well yes but no. I was trash… but I change and turn my whole life around for you. How many people in this lifetime will feel all this for you? Zeroooooooooooo….. and even if I don’t know who you were or are or anything of your life. I know I’m sooooooo in it with you. And I feel that you settle with whomever you’re with because if we were together and actually had lots of chemistry and feelings physically then we would of been together for all these years. Stop being hard on us and the past……… we were far away… and sad. Trying to create love.. but you did that.

Could you do headcanons for kakashi reacting to his gf’s ahegao face?
Kakashi X Reader | Him Reacting To Your Ahegao Face | 18+
Tumblr media
Warning: 18+ Written Content
Kakashi Masterlist
So you two were apart on missions for way too long now. He was gone on a 2 week mission and once the day came for him to return, you have to leave for your sudden mission for a month.
And now he was there, standing stunned in the living room as your surprised him with coming back home early. The mission ended early so you decided to surprise him and you dropped by without even bothering to freshen up after the mission.
You rushed and hugged him and it safe to say that he was more eager to do it and was hugging you even tighter as if you'd slip through his hand if he let go.
One thing led to another and now he's on top of you thrusting as fast and as deep as he can in you while you scratch his back with not being able to handle the pleasure that this man is giving you right now.
"Come here" with that he tighten his grip on your throat and kissed you as deep as he can and you did the same. Or tried to do the same, it was all too much for you. While on the mission, you were too tired to take care of your needs by the end of the day, so it's been a while and you were very sensitive. Plus this fucker is too big on teasing the hell out of you too.
As you both broke the kiss he started kissing your neck with one hand grabbing your hands and pinning then on top of your head and other going down on you, slowly tracing your sensitive spots strategically.
As soon as he started playing with you down there while thrusting in you like an animal. There it was, the face that left him stunned. Your eyes rolled back and mouth open not sure moaning or gasping for more air. He was so stunned that he had to stop his thrusts for a second to take a proper look at you.
And if you thought he couldn't give it to your rougher than that, you were wrong. The pace, the thrust, the grip on your hands, the moans everything doubled up!
He asked you.. more like ordered you to suck on your finger that were no soaked with his juices. And the eagerness that you wanted to do anything that he said was THAT for him and he let go inside you while making sure that he time it the same time with you.
You didn't realised what happened but it was very clear to him that he sure has his territory marked on you and you were DOWN down for him. Which was the same for him. He'd never bat an eye in someone's direction if there intentions are not right.
He randomly sometimes remember that image of yours in his head and boom.. he's hard. In meetings, while cooking, while on walk. Doesn't matter where he is, one image and he has to find an empty bathroom stall soon.

— the girl groups enhypen’s gfs are in !
genre: fluff (angst on jungwon’s part) + established relationship (eventually lol)
pairings: idol!enhypen x fem!idol!reader
note: idk how to title this pls i thought of it while showering
tagging: @jeminiepabo @strwberrydinosaur
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
you just finished performing and your members were in need of water bottles
you just finished performing and your members were in need of water bottles
you just finished performing and your members were in need of water bottles
but fucking mnet didn’t provide any inside of your dressing room??
but fucking mnet didn’t provide any inside of your dressing room??
but fucking mnet didn’t provide any inside of your dressing room??
so yves told you to ask for some from the artist in the dressing room next to yours
you knocked on the door without looking at the sign that showed who was in there
you asked for some water bottles and heeseung went “i’ll go get it!” and ran off to go get get them
jungwon just chuckled and went “hyung’s a really huge fan of your group, he kept on singing star on the way here”
you nodded at the younger one, impressed at the fact that you were popular among idols
the tall boy came back with a whole box full of water bottles
“there’s 12 of you here right now so i figured why not get a whole box” he chuckled nervously
you giggled and smiled at the nervous boy
“thank you heeseung-ssi, i’ll take this to my members” you took the box in your hands but was taken aback on how heavy it was
“don’t worry i’ll carry it for you”
long after that you started hanging out and boom you became his gf
you couldn’t resist the charms of lee heeseung
once it was revealed that you were a couple, orbits and engenes went INSANE (in a good way ofc)
“wait so y/n DOESNT hate men????”
★ jay - aespa
OMG OMG LEMME TELL YOU ABOUT THIS BBY
you both met at school after you both debuted
everyone was gossiping around about how you were in the same class with the enhas
so like... monster rookies class
usually idols aren’t seated together but the teacher seated you and jay next to each other
causing a bunch of “oooohhhs” from your classmates
there were times were you and the enhas would leave school early due to practice or schedules
and on the way to the school gate, jay would always spark up a conversation with you
you assumed he was just very friendly
long story short he had a massive crush on you
so a few months into your friendship (which the both of you were very open about with your fans), he confesses
you were like “WAIT SO IT WASNT ONE SIDED THE WHOLE TIME”
y’all were just really blind lol pls read between the lines
anyways on to ur lovely bf !!
he’s so bold and brave around you but so shy around your members and seniors
we all know how he really respects nct (along with other sm artists) bc he covered the 7th sense with sunghoon on iland
so one day you were like “oh btw i showed taeyong sunbae you and hoon’s t7s cover”
he was like 😟 to 😧 to 😯
got all shy and was like “oh what did he say..”
you don’t know why he was acting as if he didn’t body that whole performance ????
anyway you told him that taeyong said that he and hoon did really well and that he liked how jay did his part
hid his face on the crook of your neck
“baby we should come say hi to them next time you go to sm”
“NO i will make a fool out of myself”
speaks english and japanese with giselle a lot when he isn’t occupied with you
sometimes you’d even have to ask nct’s shotaro to translate
your seniors (especially exo’s kai) adore him so so much pls protect the boy at all costs
★ jake - everglow
he was an active viewer of produce 48 and (like me) was really attached to the yuehua trainees
especially you
so when you got eliminated just before the last episode, he was devastated to say the least
he awaited your debut and when the time came he supported everglow !!!!
LOVED BON BON CHOCOLAT SO MUCH
does the killing part choreo in his room when no one’s watching lol
dies everytime you do the little “everglow” in songs
right so when he debuted in enha, he looked forward to meeting you as an idol and not a fan
when you shared a dressing room at kcontact, he couldn’t help but introduce himself to you
he mentioned he was a big fan and your heart warmed
cute boy is a fan of you? omg heart go brr brr
your members tease you and you just shake it off
that day when you got back to the dorms, you watched a bunch of enhypen videos bc you were interested in jake
you weren’t aware of how popular you were among people - let alone idols so you were surprised
you fell in love with his personality and started saying hi to him whenever you meet backstage at music shows
not long after, you develop feelings for him
you thought it was just a puppy crush but as you saw him even more, it got serious
you never actually confessed but aisha accidentally spilled the beans when he was passing by
“cmon y/n just tell him you like him because he clearly feels the same !!”
“you like me?”
“AISHA”
“that’s my queue to leave”
so she leaves you two to pour your hearts out to each other
you two become a couple and forevergenes (such a cute name omg) LOVE you two
you’re both the puppies of your group so that makes your relationship 103892x cuter
you met his parents and they adore you and even asked for your autograph
“jake used to talk about how great you are after every produce 48 episode”
“okayyyy i think that’s enough embarassing me mom”
his parents love you like their own daughter but does layla love you?
you were so nervous to meet her and was actually scared she might not like you - knowing how important layla is to jake
at first layla ignored you and jake was like “she’ll come around”
you were convinced she just doesn’t like you, until this one time you were cuddling with jake on the couch and layla comes in
you expected her to snuggle up with jake but she came to you :D
now layla is super fond of you and mrs sim would even send you pictures and videos of layla getting excited whenever you were on tv 🥺
★ sunghoon - itzy
you and the girls were at isac
the six of you were just waving at your fans and making heart signs with your hearts
on your left you saw yeji making hearts with ryujin so you wanted to do that with another member too
you felt a presence next to you and assumed it was someone from your group
spoiler alert: it wasn’t
sunghoon and sunoo were waving at engenes who just happened to be seated next to midzys
so you turned to who you thought was an itzy member, making half a heart with your hand
until you realized it wasn’t 💀
you bowed and apologized when you both looked at each other, you were scared you crossed a boundary
you bowed and apologized to the engenes who were there too
sunghoon and sunoo reassured you it was all good
after that, sunghoon couldn’t help but keep his eyes on you the entire event
when the day was coming to an end, he pulled some strings and ended up having some alone time with you ...in stray kids’ dressing room
don’t ask
ofc skz already left so it was just you two there
fast forward, you both hit it off and he became your bf <3
midzys and engenes love you both sm and love bragging about you two to other fandoms
you two were even named the king and queen of 4th gen kpop
oh also
you already know where this is going
“SUNGHOON HOW COULD YOU NOT KNOW NOT SHY’S PROPER TITLE IT’S YOUR GIRLFRIEND’S SONG” - jay
brags about how he can do the shoulder dance in wannabe
ofc it’s bc you personally taught him
sends you pics of jyp as reaction pics
so you send pics of bang pdnim to him
every once in a while he reminds you of that video of jay why pee trying to hit a high note
“lmao that’s your boss”
PLS you always get super embarrassed so ofc you bring up that vid of hitman bang
“rAp dAncE-“
★ sunoo - stayc
you were his seatmate at school predebut
you came from the same town, same school, same neighborhood, etc
the two of you were extremely close and both shared the same dream
when highup entertainment accepted you, the both of you were over the moon
he was so happy for you
but sad too bc that meant you had to move to seoul :(
you promised him to do your best and that you hoped to see him again but as an idol
and hopefully when he’s an idol too
well what you hoped for came true !!
although you couldn’t see him much as a trainee - which made you quite sad - you got to follow his journey on i-land
you even asked your fellow trainees to vote for him
anyways now that you both debuted, you became close again and became really open with your fans on how close you were
you recommended his songs to swiths and he did the same to engenes
he even memorized the choreo to so bad and asap and lemme tell you this
he BEGGED you to teach him those choreos
“sunoo you can watch the practice on youtube”
“but i want to learn it from you”
he never really realized his feelings until he saw you getting shipped with his other members
you were both on weekly idol and the hosts really seemed to like how you and jake looked next to each other and they just teased you both the whole episode
that made sunoo feel uneasy and he thought it was only bc he was an overprotective best friend
turns out he had feelings for you (wow shocker)
so one day he asks you to come to hybe
after slightly getting lost, you meet up with him in a practice room
he confesses bc he felt like not telling you about his feelings would put a wall between you two
you appreciate his honesty and tell him you’ve felt the same way every since you were classmates
he scolds himself for not seeing it all those years but you just laugh it off bc you were pretty good at hiding your crush
you both agree to secretly date, until you both announce it on your five month anniversary
fans were really shocked at first... but they support you !!!!
engenes will not hesitate to come at anyone who talks bad about you and swiths feels the same way about jungwon
he gushes about you every single time you’re brought up
and you can’t help but love your adorable boyfriend
★ jungwon - iz*one
okay so
he was just an average high schooler when you were introduced on produce 48
his deskmate was watching your audition video and it was the part where you were doing this freestyle
he was SO amazed and he secretly followed your journey on produce 48
always made sure to vote on time and watch the episodes live
once the debut evaluation came around, he asked everyone he knew to vote for you and even bought tickets to see the show live
almost cried when he saw that you were center
ACTUALLY CRIED when you got into the top 13 😭
fast forward to him debuting in enha
he wasn’t able to catch up on you since he was busy with trainee life, then i-land, then debut preparations
but somehow in the middle of promotions he ran into you and BOOM love at first sight
fast forward to you finally dating, he couldn’t believe he was dating the y/n of iz*one
wizones make those “ladies and gentlemen, y/n’s man” edits and engenes make those “ladies and gentlemen, jungwon’s woman” edits
both fandoms love you two so dearly that the only hate you two got were from the delusional ones (who clearly aren’t actual fans)
when your last concert came around, he couldn’t bare seeing you cry when you said “this has been iz*one’s y/n, thank you everyone!”
he got flashbacks from when you cried during the final episode of produce 48 and he’s just.. sobbing bc he couldn’t be there to hold you
so the next day he rushed to your dorms with snacks and emotional support bc you were emotionally exhausted from accepting the fact that your journey with iz*one is finally ending
you felt extremely lucky to be in his arms and he felt extremely lucky too that he’s able to make you feel a little better
★ riki - weeekly
you were both on weekly weeekly idol together
and both you and riki being main dancers, you were asked to do random dance together
a few popular songs played and the both of you did the choreos
until after school started playing and the boy did the chorus’ choreo and you were like “woah???”
bc he was so INTO ITTTT
the song was basically made for him to cover it
and the mcs saw your reaction so they asked him to do it once again but this time with the whole group
after filming, he came up to you and was like “i’m a huge fan of yours” and you’re just like ):&/£]>\**_£]
“woah really???? i rooted for you on i-land”
and his face just lights up bc his huge crush on you developed even more
you became besties since then but he didn’t ask you out until your birthday
he took you out to a puppy café, knowing you were obsessed with dogs
you’d ask him to show you pictures and videos of bisco
“i better meet bisco once we go to japan together”
melted at the thought of traveling to his hometown with you
anyways
once you left the café, he kissed you in front of your dorms
and somehow he became your boyfriend <3
riki as a bf isn’t really a very public person
he’s the “this is our relationship, not the public’s” type of person
he doesn’t wanna risk companies wanting to exploit your relationship
although he doesn’t talk about you two much, he loves to brag about you when given the chance
whenever variety show hosts would fawn over you he’d just look them in the eyes dead and go “she’s mine”

Dungeon Crawl
Abigail (Stardew) x She/Her Reader
A/N: For real though, I suck at navigating the Skull Cavern. I play on my ipad while I lay in bed and I cannot tell you how many times I’ve died in that hell hole because my stupid boobs were blocking the view of my health meter. Anyway, enjoy some spelunking with rock eating gf. Word Count: 4,259
“I can’t believe you’re actually letting me come with you, this is awesome!” Abigail grinned, watching out the window as grass and trees slowly morphed into a dry, sandy wasteland.
“Yeah,” (Y/n) rubbed the back of her neck before nervously checking her backpack for the essentials that would make the expedition run smoothly as possible, “Just stay close to me, alright? The Calico Desert isn’t like the mines back home.”
“Yeah, you keep telling me that,” Abi turned away from the window to roll her eyes at (Y/n), “have a little faith in me, will you? I’ve been training for this.”
“I know, it’s just—“
“(Y/n), I’ve got it. Seriously. I’m not some helpless baby.” Abigail huffed.
“Hey!”
(Y/n) and Abigail turned to face the front of the bus, Pam was looking at them through the rear view mirror.
“Are you two gonna get out or not?”
“Sorry Pam!” (Y/n) and Abi answered in unison, quickly making their way to the front of the bus.
“Yeah yeah, hey (Y/n), I’d like to go home before one in the morning tonight so try to stay on task, will ya?” Pam asked, making herself comfortable in her seat.
“I’ll try to make it short this time, I promise!” (Y/n) waved before hopping out of the bus to jog after Abigail who was already heading to the Skull Cavern entrance.
“Abi, wait up!”
“How about you keep up?” Abigail snickered, picking up her pace.
“We have to get you a galaxy sword remember? It’ll only take a second and it’s really cool.” (Y/n) said, slightly out of breath as she ran after her adventure-loving girlfriend.
“Oh yeah!” Abigail kept running, but changed her trajectory to head for the tall pillars in the shifting sands.
“Stop running! We’re in the desert, we need to conserve our energy!” (Y/n) called after her before pausing to rest in the baking sun, resting her hands on her knees she whispered to herself, panting slightly “Ah, forget it.”
(Y/n) took her time walking the rest of the way despite Abi’s yells to move faster. When she finally stood before Abi standing with her hands outstretched, (Y/n) smiled and sighed affectionately. She swung her backpack off and dug into one of the flaps until she felt the smooth stone she was searching for. She pulled out the prismatic shard and put it in Abi’s eagerly waiting hands.
“Now just stand in the middle of the pillars. That should work.” (Y/n) instructed.
“Got it.” Abi nodded, heading into the middle of the pillar ruins with the stone in hand. In a flash of light, the stone was gone. It was replaced with a shiny, purple sword. “This is so fucking cool,” Abi appraised the weapon, giving it a few practice swings.
“Sure is,” (Y/n) smiled, taking a step back from Abi’s sword swinging radius. “Ready to go in the cavern?”
“I sure am! Can’t wait to fight some new monsters.” Abi said, swinging the sword as she walked.
“Just remember, we’re here to mine iridium and any gems we come across. Only fight when necessary.”
“You worry too much, (Y/n). How bad can it be?”
“Bad, Abi. It could be very, very bad. So promise you’ll stay where I can see you.”
“Okay, okay,” Abi pouted, “Are we going in now or what? Half the day is practically gone already.”
“Alright,” (Y/n) steeled herself as she heard the key click in the lock of the skull door before her, “here we go...”
Almost immediately the were ambushed by serpents, but they were easily taken out within a few swings. (Y/n) turned to ask Abigail how she was doing but she wasn’t immediately visible.
“Abi?!” (Y/n) called out, cursing when she didn’t immediately hear a reply. She jogged through the cavern level, putting a hand on her chest, relieved when she saw Abi chipping away at some rocks. Still, she was a bit miffed at her for running off on her own.
“Abi! I told you to stay with me.” (Y/n) admonished, coming to stand beside her.
“What? I didn’t even go that far. Besides, look! Amethyst!” Abi’s eyes gleamed as she presented the purple stone to (Y/n).
(Y/n) decided to let it go for now, only because Abi looked so cute, nibbling at her favorite gem. She could see some aquamarine and topaz nearby so she told Abigail to start looking for the ladder so they could go down together when (Y/n) was done mining the gems. The farmer turned miner had barely cracked open the last gem filled rock before Abi declared she was going to scout ahead down a hole she found, shooting fear into (Y/n)’s heart.
“Damn it.” (Y/n) cursed, gathering the gems and throwing them in her bag before scurrying over and jumping into the hole she had seen a flash of purple disappear into. She screamed, dropping a hefty thirteen floors. Ouch.
Her legs tingled painfully, but (Y/n) quickly pushed past the pain and stood, looking around the new floor.
“Wow, these slimes are huge!” Abigail whistled, slicing at the gelatinous purple blobs.
(Y/n) rolled her eyes in annoyance, quickly joining her girlfriend in the battle. More serpents had sensed their presence so (Y/n) turned to keep them occupied while Abigail fought off the smaller slimes that had split off from the larger ones. When they finally fought all the monsters off, (Y/n) sat on a rock and shuffled around in her bag for some much needed nourishment.
“Abi, have something to eat. That fall was rough.” (Y/n) said, offering the sack.
“Nah, I’m good. I ate some amethyst, remember?” Abigail replied already turning to start bashing rocks, but (Y/n) swiped her by the wrist before she could keep moving.
“Abi, please eat something that has actual nutritional value.” (Y/n) implored. “Look, I even packed blackberry cobbler.”
“Ugh, you’re sounding like my mom right now,” Abi kicked at the dirt, “I’m fine!”
“Right now you’re fine. But that can change in an instant down here. That’s why we take precautions!” (Y/n) stressed, holding out a container of cobbler, “Take a few bites at least, please. For me?”
Abigail stared down at where (Y/n) sat with her lips pursed in frustration, but she sighed and soon relented, sitting beside (Y/n).
“Fine, a few quick bites, worry wart. Ahh,” Abi opened her mouth expectantly, making (Y/n) laugh despite herself.
(Y/n) complied to the request, cutting off a bite and stabbing it with a fork before offering it up to Abi. After a couple more bites Abi motioned that she was done and gave (Y/n) a quick, blackberry stained kiss.
“Thanks for the treat. You always make the best cobblers.” Abigail smiled sincerely.
“Aww, I’m glad you like them!” (Y/n) smiled back, the kiss and the kind words left her feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. But just as fast as the feeling came, it was dashed just as quickly when Abi immediately stood back up and began breaking rocks as quickly as she could.
(Y/n) pouted, ate the other half of the cobbler, then stood to join Abi just in time to find a ladder down.
“Jackpot!” (Y/n) cheered, the most excited she had been about the expedition all day. A whole cluster of iridium filled rocks. Hopefully they would yield a decent amount of ore. “Abi help me with these please. Be careful though, might have some crabs under them.”
“You got it.”
(Y/n) was relieved Abigail had agreed so easily. Especially when she could see three big slimes not too far from where they stood. They mined the iridium ore rock after rock, until all the shiny rubble was demolished. (Y/n) was prepared to ignore the slimes and just start smashing rocks in order to find the next floor, but Abigail immediately started hacking away at them.
She had split them all at the same time, resulting in about twelve smaller slimes surrounding her. (Y/n) rushed forward, assisting Abigail in killing the little purple blobs.
“We don’t have to fight every creature we come across you know.” (Y/n) reminded, walking a bit sluggishly from all the gunk that covered her boots.
“But these things can carry iridium sometimes, right? Why wouldn’t we fight them?” Abigail asked, already breaking more rocks.
“We’ll be here for six more hours at least. We need to conserve our energy.”
“You packed way more supplies than necessary for two people. We’ll be fine, you worry too much,” Abi struck a rock, revealing another hole, “Ah, nice!”
“Abi, wait! Aw man, my ankles still hurt from the last fall...” (Y/n) sulked, before dropping down.
Only four floors this time, but the space was overrun by mummies. (Y/n) found Abi putting them down one after the other, but some had already started to revive, following after Abi, completely unaware that they were still a threat.
(Y/n) began cutting them back down, throwing a bomb down before running after Abi and pulling her away seconds after she downed another mummy.
“What are you doing?” Abi asked, almost tugging against the pull.
“I set a bomb! Run!”
Abigail didn’t need to be told twice. An exhilarated grin split her lips and suddenly she was the one pulling (Y/n) out of the blast zone. Upon hearing the deafening boom and the crackle of rubble raining back down to the rugged earth, Abigail turned to see the damage, eyes alight.
“That’s so cool! Can I try next time?”
“Oh I don’t know...”
“Come on (Y/n), please?” Abigail asked, pulling (Y/n) closer and batting her eyelashes at her.
“Mm, okay. Just, be careful.” (Y/n) relented, handing a bomb to Abi.
“Sick.” Abi smiled, tossing the bomb between her hands.
“I said be careful.” (Y/n) warned, watching nervously.
“Calm down, it’s not like I’ll drop...” the next toss Abi made between her hands had the bomb skimming past the tips of her fingers. She fumbled with the explosive but couldn’t catch it in the end, smacking it against the rocky terrain.
“Shit, run!” (Y/n) yelled pushing Abigail away from the fizzing bomb.
They were still within the blast radius and with one last shove, (Y/n) managed to get Abi out of range. Unfortunately, she herself took some of the hit. Making matters worse, the earth below her opened up, swallowing (Y/n) down into further darkness.
“(Y/n)!” Abigail yelled, kneeling in front of the hole. “Don’t worry, I’m coming!”
Abigail delayed no further, leaping into the hole and falling only about eight floors this time. Still she felt a twinge in her feet at the impact.
“Woah,” Abi breathed out heavily as she gained her bearings. The ground was green and mossy, vines hung from the walls, but most notable were the giant reptilian beasts. “Are those all Pepper Rex? The one on (Y/n)’s farm is so small and unimposing though... (Y/n)!”
On the other side of the cavern, (Y/n) was fighting off serpents and iridium bats, while also trying to dodge the flames spewing out of the prehistoric creatures’ mouths. She looked exhausted, but she kept fighting, taking quite a few hits in the process. Abigail sprinted forward, slicing at one of the serpents diving at (Y/n)’s back.
(Y/n) turned to look behind her and Abi leveled a confident grin at her before swiveling on her heel to stand back to back with her. Abi swung her sword outward, cutting up any winged creature that swooped by. (Y/n) tried to do the same, though she was tired, hitting whatever came her way with a strained grunt and clangs of her sword beating against the cavern wall whenever a serpent or bat dodged an attack.
There were only a few flying creatures left, dive-bombing their heads. They needed to finish them off quickly because the dinosaurs were circling dangerously closer, the heat of their flames nipping at the couple’s skin as the were forced further into a corner.
Abigail let out a triumphant yell as the last bat was felled, iridium falling to the ground. She glanced back at (Y/n), finding her leaning forward heavily on her knees. It was clear to her that they needed to leave, now.
“Hang on, (Y/n). I’ll get us out of here.” Abigail approached, looping one of (Y/n)’s arms over her shoulders and hoisted her up.
“Just be careful... You’re parents will kill me if you get hurt.” (Y/n) groaned, trying to keep herself lucid.
Abigail scanned the room, searching for a path through the flames. Once she found an opening, she pulled (Y/n) forward, trying to block wayward blasts of fire with her sword as she continued to forge ahead towards the main staircase. It would be a long climb back up, but she’d take that over being roasted alive any day.
They had almost made it when a particularly strong flame lashed out at them, forcing roars of pain from (Y/n) as she took the brunt of the hit for Abigail.
“No!” Abigail grunted, picking up the pace. (Y/n) basically become dead wait in her arms as she dragged her to the ladder. (Y/n) couldn’t get up herself, not in this state. Abigail set her down and frantically searched (Y/n)’s bag for medicine as the lumbering beasts made steady progress in their direction.
Abigail found the medicine and with shaky hands, helped (Y/n) take some.
“I know you’re in a really bad way right now, but we got to get you back home, (Y/n). Do you think you can hang on my back?”
“I. can. try.” (Y/n) panted.
Abigail bent over and hoisted (Y/n) further up her back when she felt the weight settle, careful not to upset the burns too much she began forcing her way back up the ladder, leaving the terror of Pepper Rexs’ to hiss and pace below, lapping the invulnerable ladder with flames.
Abigail had never been more happy to see the sky. She staggered, plopping (Y/n) a little too harshly into the sand below her feet and then joined her. Uncaring of the little grains that were sure to stick in her clothes and hair. The sun, though now hanging low in the sky, had left the sand pleasantly warm, and it felt good on Abigail’s aching muscles, but not so much on the sporadic burns she had accumulated. She turned to look at (Y/n), assessing the damage. She was definitely roughed up to say the least.
“Are you okay, Abi?”
“Am I okay? Have you seen yourself?!” Abigail hovered over her girlfriend, a brittle laugh tumbled past her lips.
“I’ve had worse... actually, that was one of the better experiences I’ve had in the cavern.”
“What!” Abigail screeched, pulling at her own hair, “what could be worse than this?”
“Well, there have been a few occasions where I may have fallen unconscious and woken up at Harvey’s in less than ideal shape, unable to recall how I got there...”
“(Y/n)!” Abigail spluttered, “Why would you ever go in there? Why did you let me talk you into taking me here if this is what happens to you?”
“I can’t say no to you when you look at me with that face, you know the one. All cute and pouty. Also, iridium ore. We got a nice haul before everything went sideways.”
“We only got twenty-three!” Abigail shook her head.
“Yeah,” (Y/n) giggled tiredly, “a good haul.”
“You’re insane. That, or a masochist. And people say I’m weird for eating rocks.”
“You are weird for eating rocks, but Yoba, I wouldn’t want you any other way.”
“Okay, we need to get you into the bus and have Pam get you to Harvey’s straight away. You’re loopy.”
“This sand tastes rough.”
Abigail dragged (Y/n) back to the bus, disturbing Pam from her nap. Pam took one look at (Y/n) and rolled her eyes completely unfazed.
“Load her up. I’ll get us back to town as fast as I can.” Pam groused.
Abigail took (Y/n) to the back of the bus so she could lay out on the long bench with her head on Abigail’s lap. It made it easier to monitor the farmer on their way back and Abigail rustled through the backpack to find some more blackberry cobbler, sharing bites between herself and (Y/n) as they slowly built back their strength.
It was around ten o’clock at night when they returned. Pam helped Abigail carry (Y/n) to the clinic though she complained the whole time, muttering something about how a ticket worth five hundred gold was not enough money to have to deal with this. Pam left the girls outside of Harvey’s before making her way to the Inn for a drink before bed.
Abigail pounded on the clinic door, hoping her parents wouldn’t hear it somehow and come out to see what was going on. Luckily, the only person that seemed to hear the harsh banging was the doctor.
Harvey peeled the door back, looking rather tired already. When he saw the states of his visitors he appeared even more exhausted.
“Skull Cavern?” He asked.
“Skull Cavern.” Abigail affirmed.
“Alright,” Harvey sighed, “come in.”
After getting all patched up, Abigail guided (Y/n) out of the clinic, thanking Harvey for all the help along the way. (Y/n) made to head back towards her farm but Abigail pulled her towards the general store instead.
“Just stay with me tonight. My house is literally right here and you’ll probably pass out before you even made it out of town.” Abigail persuaded.
“What about your parents?” (Y/n) whispered, watching Abigail unlock the front door.
“They’ll just have to deal with it. I say we’ve been together long enough that they shouldn’t freak out about something as trivial as a sleepover. If they didn’t know we were dating, they wouldn’t even bat an eye over it. Just a couple of gals being pals.” Abigail grumbled opening the door slowly before whispering, “Let’s try to keep quiet anyway though. Just to keep the peace.”
“Okay...”
Abigail and (Y/n) tiptoed through the rows of shelves, making it to the living quarters portion of the building without incident. Abigail thought they were home free, but when she cracked the door to her bedroom open, the hinges moaned and creaked loudly.
“Abigail?”
“Shit, get in.” Abigail hissed at (Y/n), pushing her into her room before calling back to her mom, “Yeah, mom?”
Abigail cursed, hearing the flit boards creek and the light in her parents’ room turn on.
Caroline emerged from the doorway and turned on the hall light as well, causing Abigail to rub her eyes from the sudden brightness.
“Hi sweetie,” Caroline smiled, “did you have a good time with (Y/n) today?”
“Yeah.” Abigail answered, trying to sound nonchalant.
“You got home a little later then you said you would. You’re father tried to wait up for you, but he fell asleep.”
“The movie ran a little longer than we thought it would. Sorry I kept you waiting.”
“Don’t worry about it honey, your father will get over it.” Caroline assured, “How was the movie? Your father and I don’t feel like making the trip all the way to Zuzu City, but we were thinking about going to see it when it’s in town next week.”
“It was okay, mom.” Abigail shrugged, “I think you guys would like it. If you don’t mind I’m really tired so...”
“Of course, dear. Sleep well.”
“Good night, mom.” Abigail turned to enter her room when Caroline spoke up again.
“Good night, (Y/n).” Caroline crossed her arms, waiting for a response.
“...Good night, Caroline.” (Y/n) called meekly from out of sight, making Caroline smile, satisfied that her suspicions were correct.
“Behave yourselves, alright? I could hear a pin drop from the store front.”
“Mom!” Abigail said, aghast by what her mother was insinuating. “It’s just a sleepover.”
“It most certainly will be, or Ms. (Y/n) will find herself walking back home in the middle of the night,” Caroline threw her voice, talking behind Abigail rather than to her, “You’re welcome to stay for breakfast as long as there is no funny business.”
“Mom!” Abigail repeated again, more indignant than the last.
“...Thank you. That sounds lovely.”
“Alright, good night girls.” Caroline kissed the top of Abigail’s head, then shuffled back into her bedroom, turning the lights off behind her and leaving her door open just a hair.
Abigail shook her head before retreating into her room, making sure the sound of her door closing was audible in hopes of spiting her mother in some way. She saw (Y/n) already sitting on her bed with some borrowed pajamas on, looking embarrassed but also wide-eyed. Like she had heard something that had surprised her, something she hadn’t expected.
“Sorry, you know how my parents are.” Abigail grumbled looking through her pajamas to see what she would sleep in for the night.
“You... I’ll wait for you to change.”
Abigail rose a brow at (Y/n) but easily returned to her task, throwing her dirty clothes into her hamper before flopping down on the bed beside (Y/n), causing the springs of the mattress to creak loudly.
The sound made both the girls wince, and although they had done nothing wrong, the anxiously looked to the door, listening for anything that wasn’t just the house settling. Once they seemed to be in the clear, (Y/n) pulled Abi close so she could whisper urgently in her ear.
“You told your parents we went to Zuzu City to see a movie?”
“Yeah,” Abigail answered smoothly as if it wasn’t a big deal, “like they’d ever agree to me going out to the desert.”
“You told me they were cool with it! That’s why I let you come in the first place. I should have known!” (Y/n) whispered harshly, struggling to keep her voice low. “What if you had been in my boots, as hurt as I am? Your parents would have never let me see you again if I dragged you here like you had to do for me.”
“That’s not their choice to make. I’m tired of them telling me what I can and can’t do. Sometimes it’s better to just tell them what they want to hear, and see? Everything worked out. I do the same thing when I go to gigs with Sam and Seb at run down bars in the shady parts of the city.”
“Are you going to make a habit of lying to me too?” (Y/n) frowned.
“(Y/n), no.” Abigail frowned in return, cupping (Y/n)’s cheek. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have lied to you about my parents. I just, I really wanted to go out on an adventure with you. I wanted to show you how much I had grown since being a trembling little baby cowering away from the bats in the mines. The last thing I meant to do was hurt you. I’m sorry.”
(Y/n)’s eyes scanned over Abigail’s before she closed them and nodded slowly, “Okay, I forgive you. But please, don’t lie to me ever again.”
“I won’t. Promise.” Abigail nodded, resting her forehead against(Y/n)’s.
“And work on being more truthful to your parents. Start small of you must.”
“Ugh, fine. Don’t blame me if they won’t ever let me leave the house. I’ll wave at you longingly from the balcony when you pass through town.” Abigail muttered dramatically, making (Y/n) giggle and pull Abigail down to lay in the bed with her.
“I’ll be sure to work on my throwing arm so I can still give you pumpkins.” (Y/n) smiled, shifting the duvet out from under them so they could snuggle in.
“Aren’t you sweet,” Abigail wiggled closer, “perhaps that old ouija board was right.”
“How come you’re allowed to talk about the ouija board, but I’m supposedly pretend like it never happened?”
“Because it’s my embarrassing story so only I have the authority to bring up.”
“Is that how that works now?”
“Yes.”
“Hm.” (Y/n) shrugged.
They were quiet for awhile then, breathing evenly. (Y/n) had almost thought Abigail had beaten her to sleep when she suddenly spoke again.
“I’m also really, really sorry about the bomb and, well, everything that happened immediately after.” Abigail said, absently rubbing the sleeve of the shirt (Y/n) was wearing between her fingers.
“It’s alright,” (Y/n) yawned, “it was an accident after all. Try not to dwell on it. I’ve blown myself up on accident plenty of times before hand.”
Abigail smushed (Y/n)’s face between her hands, making her lips protrude like a fish, “Don’t say I’m turning into my parents when I say this, but I forbid you from going into the Skull Cavern ever again. Stick to the mines.”
“But, iridium.” (Y/n) protested, though her face was still being squished.
“You have that weird cat statue and those purple sea cucumbers. You’ll get by.” Abigail replied, leaving no room for argument, making (Y/n) whine. She kissed the pouty lips, sliding her hands off to rest one on her pillow and the other on (Y/n)’s collar bone. “Now we have to get some sleep. We’ll need all the energy we can get to deal with my parents in the morning now that sneaking you out of the house isn’t an option.”
“I am really tired,” (Y/n) yawned again, “you better fill me in on what movie we supposedly went to though. I’m sure that will be a whole discussion.”
“Oh yeah, I should do that, shouldn’t I?”
Abigail and (Y/n) settled into more comfortable positions, a few more kisses were shared before they finally drifted off in each other’s arms to the sounds of David the guinea pig rustling in his enclosure.

Yo it's Apollo!Ray AU hours again
I just think Ray would be more fitting as ruthless psycho than Norman? I mean, Ray was willing to sacrifice 35 children out of 37- children that were his family, children he loved. I'm not saying such decision didn't destroy him internally; but if he, after having thought about it for a long time and considered there was no other chance, eventually agreed to sacrifice most of his own family, think about what he might be able to do to the creatures he despises.
Now, I'm not saying I'm 100% sure this is how Ray would act if he was sent to Lambda, and I know I'm on thin ice with remaining in character; but I find it fun to think of what could have been of him and eventually bringing to light some hidden dark aspects of his!
Hear me out: Ray is a complex, predominantly gray character. Through the canon story, he was greatly effected by Emma's good influence for the better. Nota bene!! I don't mean that Ray isn't his own character, and that his personality and development was solely shaped by Emma; what I mean is that he was influenced by Emma's attitude as much as she was of his own, because our personality is also built on the people we're surrounded by, especially the ones we share a deep bond with.
Now, let's say that, at Grace Filed, Ray's heart was still in a predominantly gray zone: a bit ruthless at heart - he really was willing to abandon to death 92% of his family - but still able to be influenced by Emma's good resolutions for the best (even though it's important to keep in mind that he didn't believe an escape involving more than three people was possible until it took place in front of his eyes. I think it's a very relevant detail, as it shows how GF!Ray's cynism and realism often lead to him solely being able to see the most negative results, and not allowing him to believe in the impossible as Emma and Norman did).
Now, things changed as canon Ray escaped. He had seen the impossible become reality right in front of his eyes, and in that moment he vowed he would have never made the same mistake: he would have never given up again; not on his family, nor on his life.
He swore to protect his family, and that he would have never allowed any of his siblings to meet death again: and that's because, for the very first time in his entire existence, he started to believe that no-escape-scenarios can actually be overcame without sacrifices, if only you have enough faith into making it possible. He learned that fighting back will never stop being an option, and he's now willing to do anything, even the impossible, to grant his family an happy life- this time, for all of them.
It's beautiful, isn't it? Well, bad news!!! Lambda!Ray never got the chance to go through this character development. In fact for him after his shipment everything got worse and more desperate!
I find it unlikely that Ray would have left a note with a revisited escape plan like Norman did before leaving... We know for sure in two months he didn't come up with what Norman had thought in a couple of hours, and even though in the circumstances of him being shipped he would have been him to make the recognition, he didn't know about the support of the younger siblings, which was a key element of the escape plan. Overall, even putting aside the fact that Norman is generally considered being a span more witty than Ray, I personally like to think that Ray, for how he is - pessimistic, depressed and everything - after seeing the cliff would have been far too miserable to come up with something as fast as Norman did.*
*Actually, it's hard to tell for sure, because I think Ray would never give up on saving Emma and Norman- but things were happening so fast, so what if he didn't have enough time? What if he just couldn't come up with a plan to overcome the cliff? I fully believe Ray would have done anything to save Emma and Norman, but what if there wasn't anything to be done? It's hard to say.
Ray is shipped to Lambda. This is probably what he's thinking, differently from Norman:
1. Their plan to escape somehow feels as it's already failed, since they already lost one person: without him, the plan of setting the house on fire to distract Isabella has no chance to work, making their already few chances of escaping go down to basically none.
2. Differently from Norman, who never stopped believing in Emma, Lambda!Ray doesn't know if his siblings were actually able to escape; taking into account how pessimistic Ray is, he has probably long presumed them dead. In such situation, it's very likely he considered the work of the six years of his life to at least make Emma and Norman survive gone to waste. I think it's actually very likely for him to get even more depressed and hopeless at Lambda, believing that now all his family is dead, and probably blaming himself for that. The fact that out of all his family he was the only one who survived - him, the one who out of them was the most ready and willing to die - must feel to him like the most cruel joke from destiny.
[For reference: until the very moment they finally met, also Norman didn't know the escape was successful.
Tumblr media
Of course, Norman believed in Emma and in her plan, but what about cynical, realistic, I'm-depressed-since-I-was-one Ray?]
At Lambda, Ray is hopelessly stalling, obsessing on this kind of thoughts. His hatred for demons and, for extension, the world he lives in, is growing stronger and stronger. He's slowly sinking in the abyss of his own desperation. Now that all for him is lost, the only thought that keeps him from giving up on his life is one: the thirst of vengeance. A single, dark, rooted thought that somehow manages to be the one thing that keeps him going on. (Once taken on the Apollo facade, there probably was also a component of wanting to stop once and for all the suffering of thousands of children... But in all honesty, I believe with Ray the revenge component would be much stronger than it was with Norman.)
Let's take a moment to reflect on Ray's vindictive side, shall we? Of course, the main reason for Ray to set himself on fire was because according to him it was the safest way to make the others escape (honestly I think a big part of it was also because of him being suicidal kind of depressed, but that's not relevant to the point). But I believe another primary reason for his actions was his seek for revenge: you can clearly see it in his words full of hate and loathing. And I mean, I think that's pretty canon? Ray's beautiful theme in this moment of the anime is literally called “Ray's retaliation”.
Tumblr media
That night Ray sought revenge for having ruined his six years plan to save his true friends (since Norman was ultimately shipped without him being able to do anything to save him), together with revenging all of his siblings he saw being led to death. Somehow, it was a moment for him to set all his anger free as his last testament leaving that cruel world.
But as for the Ray of the AU, he never got to experience that freeing moment! Instead, the anger inside of him kept growing stronger and stronger. And now that he believed the whole escape plan had failed and not a single child had survived, it's fair to assume his thirst for revenge would keep growing with it. And also, once again: this time there's no Emma to have a good influence on him.
Now imagine: after escaping Lamba, Ray meets Emma and Norman again!! He's overjoyed: for the longest time, he had thought he would have never got to see them again. He's ecstatic, overwhelmed with joy. In that moment, he swears to himself he'll never lose them again. Skip to the moment of the confrontation between the three of them, except this time it's Ray to expose his plan to exterminate the demons; when Emma randomly speaks her mind and says that, well, she actually doesn't find it very nice to eradicate an entire species, and that in fact she and Norman were already planning a fun trip to a deadly metaphysical place nobody ever came back from to reforge the promise. Needless to say, in the span of minutes Ray is back sinking deep into the abyss. He won't lose them again. He can't lose them again. And click boom, he goes “You know what Emma? Why don't you visit our Paradise Hideout a bit longer instead 😊🔪🔪🔪”
What I'm trying to say is: when the story starts, Ray has gone through all of the most dreadful and disturbing horrors; he's unstable, and depending on his fate when leaving Grace Field he could have easily swing from one extreme to the other. I think Emma greatly helped him overcome his hatred; but what would have been of him, hadn't she been there to support him? What if he only met people who shared his hatred for demons? What if Ray had the choice to kill them all?

Hello! I'm sorry for bothering, but is it okay to ask for your side on your and Pandora's love story? You guys are so sweet! I wish the best for you guys!
Well hello to you too hahah
And my side, ghm? Well,,, it's gonna be a trip since I just woke up and I'm doing this all in one go so I hope it makes sense at the end hahahah
Anyways owo
Twas a fine, lovely afternoon—
No really, it was. Like... I was scrolling through the comments of my old fics and I saw,, Bella commented hahah
And I was all "oh cool :3"
Then a lil skip and I saw her, pandora-dusk, commenting on the post I have of the fic and I was all "huh.. is this the same person??" I thought it was, she's all "I found it!" Or smth, and hey said the fic was dope and I was all "omf is this secretly a famous person—"
So I checked her blog, and I was all, "yeah okay I feel this person is famous so why is she talking to me cjskcbskdn"
But like,, yeah,, twas dope hahah
And we only get to talk in the replies because I refuse to talk to someone famous cause I'd embarrass myself owo
But then, in one of our chats in the notes and such, she mentioned how she draws and such and I was all "NFKSNDKSN YOU DRAW :D" and hey, I told her that people would absolutely love her art and such and yeah, surprise surprise, she posted her drawings and I was all ":0!!!! YO DAS SO COOL!" And then I remember reblogging it and had some on my save tag hahaha
It's so dope hahah
But y'know what happened next? The lil shit Tumblrbot messaged me and I low-key panicked cause "omf did I do smth wrong am I getting kicked out of Tumblr???" You can tell my mind was racing, but when I saw their message and they just "hey, you liked pandora-dusk's post, you should try talking to her owo" and I was all "hahah w h a t—"
Legit it took me a while to actually try to message her cause I was just "hhhHhnnn okay but what if she's busy and she finds it annoying omfs cjsmxjsm"
But hey I just up and "fuck it, if I managed to message Dee despite them being famous too, why not her?" So I sucked it up and yeah, messaged her hahaha
If you saw Pan's post, then yeah, you'd see how it went down
Anyways yeah, after that, we didn't talk much and every time I check my notifs, my thumb just hovers over her icon cause I still wanna talk to her and such, but I feel like I'm annoying her, so I just wait for replies and such hahah
Tis sad, but hey
Then that thing with Jane Angst™ happened, and good lord the reblogs jcsmjdks hahahaha
It escalated to the point we made the Knight and the Princess and we finally took it to the DM's cause hah, the reblogs were getting long hahah
AND OH MY GOD
Okay so we made progress with the lil story of the Knight and Princess, yeah? I fucking shit you not, I did not sleep because of that hahahah
I think yesterday, yeah, we were talking about this ask and it went to that thing of us with the Princess and Knight, and I told her that I didn't sleep for her just to try to finish that, that's how special she was and I didn't even know her yet–
But hey yeah, another mini skip
Then more shit happened to me, I didn't sleep and twas already two, and then.. she messaged me hahah
And then told me so many things and I discovered more about her too
And I could feel myself falling for her
Do you know how scary that was hahaha
She's so amazing.. no chance, yeah? I convinced myself that there's no chance. As if we'd meet. As it she'd like me. No one likes me like that irl, so why would she like me? She doesn't even know me.
But,,, ehhh,,, idk man. Couldn't stop myself hahah
She's just so nice and so dope and so understanding. She's so caring, so talented, and just.. she's amazing in general. And that scared me so much hahaha
Cause I'm nothing owo
I always like people with no chance of liking me back and I've been hurt so much hahah
But did I continue liking her anyways? Yep.
It didn't help that after drawing human Tumblrbot, Al— well,, star anon during that time, sent asks how Pan and I are kinda T's parents and oh my god I was all "that's so fucking adorable but hhHhhH is she comfortable with this cjskjdk" then I saw her actually draw shit for T too and I was just ":'0!!" And yeah, I started falling more and more hahah
Everyday I couldn't stop thinking about her, but I keep telling myself to just forget her cause "there's no chance. No one likes you irl, why expect she'd like you? Once she sees what you look like, she's gonna be disgusted. Disgusted probably like everyone else." And that broke me.. cause hah.. I really did like her, but yeah, we don't talk much so I just "ehh.. sure.."
But did I really stop? Nah.
Look I fell hard jcksjxksns
And hey I kept gushing about her to the GC and to my best friend hahaha
Dee actually thought Pan and I were dating and I was all "hah, I wish—"
And then my best friend was all "omf you have a gf na without telling me—" but hey I told her we weren't together and she was all "WHAT??? BUT?? YOU TWO ARE SO SWEET???"
And yeah hahaha
Another timeskip
Like,, Halloween?? Yeah hahah
Halloween onwards
We started talking more and more and oh my god I fell h a r d
I get to know more about her and the more she shared the more I fell and like,,, the more I see her as herself hahah
And god, she's so amazing
She might not believe it, but she is
And everyday I keep telling her how she's so great, basically, I was trying to flirt with her hahahahah
Cause like,, there might be a small ass chance yeah? Yeah hahah
And hey,, we talked and such, and,, hahah it seems like we were together but not. I told her that when we finally meet, I'm taking her out on a date hahah
And yeaahhhhh,,,
Another mini skip, now it's November, and hah, the eleventh came and on the twelfth, we had like this swab test and such and I was scared af and I just "hhhnnn might as well"
So take note, in my part it's like?? What?? Twelve? Eleven going on twelve am
But in hers it's the afternoon still
DO YOU KNOW HOW COLD MY HANDS WERE
So yeah, I confessed to her hahah
AND YO
SHE ACTUALLY??? LIKES ME BACK????
GODDAMN JCSKJXKSNXKSNS
And yeah owo
I messaged my bestfriend first about it cause she was still online and yeah we celebrated hahahaha
But yeah, then we talked more, we saw what each other looked like (y'all she's so fucking pretty cjskjdks like goddamn) and surprisingly, she doesn't think I look like shit, then we called, and hcksjdksjs
It was just so great hahaha
And hey, yeah, we got to know more about each other and boom, we be here now owo

bnha hcs with an artsy s/o [2/?]
part two of this series! i will continue with maybe 2 more sets of bnha characters, so if i don’t touch basis with one you really like, then don’t be afraid to send a request! i can also do pt. 2s or scenarios for these, if y’all want as well :)
note: your quirk will be the same all around, if implied you have one!
Quirk: AMBIENT ILLUSION - with a single touch of your hand or glance, you are able to make your opponent think that they’ve been taken to another “realm,” but in actuality their body movements mimic those in the illusion; it’s a quirk that can be used for good or for bad; your creativity isn’t limited, but the side effects are headaches, nausea, and sometimes insanity for a short period of time until your stamina runs out or unless someone knocks you out
Hero Name: Chiaroscuro or Chiasu [for short]- referring to the major contrast of light and dark in an image; in italian it is said to literally mean light-dark
enjoy :)

i. midoriya
> you both go way back to childhood years, but you moved away
> you two only reunited because you knew mirio and he told you about izuku
> “wait- does he have a broccoli like hair?” 
> nevertheless, izuku was ecstatic to reunite with you and vise versa
> he noticed the subtle changes to your appearance, such as your choice of clothing
> you talked a lot about your newfound love for art and aesthetics, he found it cute
> he told you about all might and his new quirk becuz something seemed off about him
> being quirkless, you make the most of being kind to people all around the world and to those you meet
> that’s one of the qualities that izuku likes a lot about you
> he isn’t really there after moving to the dorms, so you try to make the effort to come see him and that’s how the rest of his friends met you
> he feels bad you’re always spending time alone, while he was training really hard
> as an artist, you do get insecure, so losing deku to his dream was kinda a harsh reality check and you needed to find another outlet
> you worked at a nearby art teacher at the night painting sessions and you loved it
> gaining better critiques and learning about different potential styles made you so much more confident
> when izu saw you after long grueling training for the provisional license exam, he saw you were glowing with confidence and he was convinced he was going to one day marry you
---
k. bakugo
> he keeps you a hidden secret from the rest of his nosy friends. PERIODT.
> katsu is kinda embarrassed to admit he has a BIG soft spot for your artsy self
> you work at an art store and one day kirishima and kaminari decided to grab some materials for an art project that aizawa assigned
> you happened to be there helping out a flirty kaminari and an enthusiastic kirishima
> he was just kinda there...staring at you and your cute HANDMADE grenade earrings
> “you good bakugo?” -kirishima asked when they left
> “tch whatever.” 
>  he was forced to go BACK THE NEXT DAY because he broke some of the markers when he was getting riled up
> he ACTUALLY made a compliment to your flame earrings that day and you wrote your number on the back of his receipt
> fast-forward, he takes the time to escape the dorms during the weekends to see you
> his mom LOVES you to DEATH
> she knows you’re the one and pesters baku about marrying you NOW
> neway, you’ve made cute little charms for your boom boom boi as good luck
> BONUS: you have matching charms that he keeps in a display case in his dorm room in his desk drawer
---
s. todoroki
> since he’s fairly quiet, he never really mentions you, except to his sister or izuku
> he collects the scrapbook pages you put together in a safe scrapbook
> for once, his dad is actually proud of his son’s gf and as he proclaims “his-future wife”
> your quirk is something that his dad practically fangirls about
> your family doesn’t really like the idea of quirk marriages just because they value trust and love
> shouto loves that and so he can be seen coming over often on the weekends
> he admires all the art pieces you draw in your sketchbook that you carry around for your quirk
> the more details you can memorize of a scene, the more the victim becomes more entranced
> he admires the fact that you like making art not only for your hero courses, but because you value making others happy with your gift
---
d. kaminari
> den asks himself how and why he ended up with such a cute and gifted girl
> you like making him small gifts and art pieces because it brightens his day
> but you attend seiai academy, which you extremely dread
> but when it comes down to it, you aren’t one to associate yourself with saiko intelli, just because she’s kind of in over herself with her fancy teas
> you spend a lot of time drawing and such that you never really socialize with the other girls
> you only attend seiai because you had gotten a recommendation from your old art teacher, and suddenly...you feel out of place
> all the girls in seiai seem to be snotty rich girls with nothing else better to do other than gossip and drink leaf juice
> denki tries to make you feel better after talking about his day and then asking about yours, which you respond to as “the same old lonely dorm room day”
> he feels really bad and tries to make you happy
> the day of the sports festival, he invited you to attend a week before since it was a really big deal coming from class 1-A
> you met his friends and eraserhead at the provisional license tournament, which you had finished pretty quickly, considering how you broke away from your peers and kinda just went for some unlucky chump
> eraserhead was impressed oop-
> anyway, when you saw their performance, you got literal chills and was pretty jealous of denki, you made some excuse to go home
> you ended up crying by yourself, but that crying sess ended when you found den at your dorm room, hugging the daylights out of you
> “i have a suggestion for you...how about you ditch these rich girls and come eat the rich with the rest of us at U.A.?”
---
f. tokoyami
> edgy boi + soft aesthetic s/o = b a l a n c e
> fumi isn’t one to outwardly express himself in the love dept, so how he ended up with you was simply being classmates
> being a transfer from shiketsu high school was probably the most nerve wrecking
> after everyone had gotten their provisional license, your dad came back from overseas and didn’t like that you weren’t at U.A., so...yea
> ANYWAY, fumi is soft edgy boi for you, and really admires your pieces
> he gives you ideas for some dark pieces that could help you spook more people 
> fumi does little thoughtful things to help you through commission surges like bringing you flowers, snacks and dinner
> when you moved into the dorms, the rest of class 1-A had convinced you to let them into your room, which consisted of a lot of ORGANIZED art supplies and...PETS????
> apparently you had gotten permission from aizawa to bring some of your pets to the dorms, such as a cat, a puppy and a couple of birds
> “i couldn’t possibly come up with my pieces without having them”
> **cue cuteness overload**
> class 1-A didn’t pick up on your relationship with him and when they did, they were like......!!!!
> it was all thanks to your polaroid and printed photos of all your friends and some of your dates with fumi

e. kirishima
> you met during one of his patrols with fatgum and tamaki
> fatgum recognized you as you frequently came from seiai to visit, since fatgum was your relative
> kiri was curious about you since you go to seiai, an all girls academy
> fatgum had taken you along with his two interns to patrol and let me say kiri began simping after seeing you in action
> as a prep girl, you spend quite some time in the art room for your quirk
> having been prepared, it wasn’t any big deal to have you take down the bad guy within mere 15 minutes
> you were close with tamaki, but even closer with kiri
> at one point, you both started dating and you met his friends when you came from seiai to drop off some food you made for him
> “you go WHERE???” -denki

> “it’s okay, kiri! i’m sorry to intrude! i’ll be heading out now!”
> **cue dejected kiri for the rest of the week**
> his classmates felt bad seeing him in such a downer state, and apologized to him
> “nah, it’s okay...i was kinda hoping you guys would like her too and i’m sorry i’ve been down lately...so not manly.”

JANHVI KAPOOR, CIS WOMAN, TWENTY-FIVE, SHE / HER  ⟨  ✽  ⟩   hey, you haven’t bumped into  kareena puri  lately, have you? they have been living here for the past  two years  and during that time, locals have gotten to know them as  charismatic  &  creative.  a little birdie told me they can be quite  stubborn  &  opinionated  though. explains why they’re an online fashion brand owner and designer .  they really remind me of  morning beach walks, sketchbooks filled with new designs, the sound of a sewing machine running.  if you’re ever looking for them, i bet you can find them around port briar lighthouse.
hi again, it’s tally ! this is my second baby kareena !! she’s very new to me and it’s pretty exciting bc i tend to just recycle characters kjhfgkj again, if you’d like to plot, please reach out to me on dms, or you can like this and i’ll reach out. you can also talk to me on discord if you’d prefer that. ( gowon face insurance company#8416 ) also pls excuse how messy this is, i havent written a proper full intro in a while.

kareena puri
march 30th, 1996 - 25 yrs old ; aries
cis woman, she/her, bisexual (closeted to her family, not so much to anyone else)
born in mumbai, india. raised in seattle, washington.
currently residing in port briar, maine
pinterest board: here
TW / CW: none, other than a controlling family, which idk if it even should be tagged but yuh
kareena knew it, she was lucky compared to others. she had it better than some of her peers, and she recognized that privilege. but if she could trade her family life for a “normal” one, she would in the quick snap of a finger.
kareena’s family was pretty much old money. she came from a long line of doctors in almost every medical field, and they own so many private hospitals and clinics in many countries. if you happen to hear the Puri family name, you probably would associate it with these things: a big hospital that you probably drove by with your car or a surgeon that your doctor wanted to refer you to.
every child in the family was expected to go to med school. it was the only way to keep the family legacy and pride going. of course, the more new generations came in the family, the more there were those who decided to take different fields of work instead. and of course, the eldest members in the family would always voice their disappointment in them, and would always make sure to remind them that they’re a disgrace no matter how successful they are in whatever field they went into.
kareena didn’t know what she was doing at the young age of sixteen. her parents would boast about how she would be a successful doctor when she grows up, just like her older siblings, and how her younger siblings would be the same as well. all kareena did was nod and smile. she didn’t want this.
the thing is, she was a naturally great student with really good grades, and yet her parents would be disappointed if she got a B+ or even an A- on a subject every once in a while. she didn’t get it. she thought she was doing her best. although the complaining about her report cards was getting a bit too much coming from her mother, and that’s when kareena really started to not give a fuck. yes, she still got good grades for her own sake, but she started to do whatever she wanted. she hung out with kids her parents would call a bad influence, and started to skip some school days or go to parties on the weekends. it was fun and liberating to her.
once her senior year was over and kareena was graduated with a high school diploma, her family was back at it again, trying to get her to apply to all the notable medical schools out there. she had protested about it, and family fights ensued, and with some threats, kareena was forced into applying. next school year, she was in another city, studying to be a surgeon, and her mind wasn’t into it at all. she only lasted one year before she decided to drop out and transfer to FIDM, a fashion school in L.A, instead.
kareena has always been into fashion. the way she dressed would tell you so. how she was always on the latest fashion, and how she would have so many sketchbooks and scrapbooks of fashion related things. she loved making her own clothes at home with her sewing machine. her mother would tell her that it’s a nice hobby, but she never guessed that her daughter would want to pursue it as a career. the color drained out of her face when she saw what kareena had done. she was angry and disappointed, and mostly worried about what the rest of the family would say, more than she cared about her daughter’s wants and needs. kareena, however, didn’t care. she was happy. she moved out to be closer to campus, and soon enough after graduation, she left everything behind and decided to go somewhere quieter: port briar, maine. this was completely different from everything she was used to, it was so quiet and small, but she loved it. she finally feels at peace with herself.
now, kareena is a successful fashion designer. she started an online business, and it has been booming, with fashion influencers promoting her work. she was hoping that someday she would get to do bigger things, like making custom items for celebrities and being featured in fashion magazines and fashion weeks. she could only wish and work towards that for now.
and even with all of that, even when kareena had picked herself up from the ground on her own and built her own business, her family still didn’t approve. they still pretended to care about her, but would make sure to remind her of how disappointed they are in her and the path she’d taken. they would sit and wonder what it would’ve been like if she continued to go to med school, and how successful she could’ve been. and all kareena would do in response is smile and say that she’s successful anyway, but at least now she’s doing something she actually loves.
.  ∘ ∗   :   🐝   𝙷𝙴𝙰𝙳𝙲𝙰𝙽𝙾𝙽𝚂   …
born in mumbai, india. moved to seattle, washington when she was still a baby, and was raised there for the rest of her life, all while still visiting family back home.
kareena is the middle child of 5 siblings. two older brothers and two younger sisters
she is bisexual, and she’s pretty open about it. except to her family. shes not out to them
she believes in working hard, but she also believes that everyone deserves to have fun and get a break every once in a while. she currently is the only main person doing all the work for her business, but she’s hoping to soon hire anyone who has the same interests as her
her designs are mostly evening wear dresses and such. think teuta matoshi or marionela type of dresses, all flowy and puffy, giving fantasy feels
altho i would say her success is more like early hope macaulay, when she was still starting out. if no one is familiar with her, she is an irish fashion and textile designer who got famous for her knit wear on instagram, and she’s p young !! u might recognize her work if u look her up <3
she currently lives alone port briar, with her rented home facing the beach. exactly how she likes it. it was different and definitely not lavish like her home growing up, but she liked it better. she could’ve lived somewhere more expensive, but she didn’t want that.
owns a studio where she usually works. there is more space for her there than what she used to have at home. all the design process, sewing and even photoshoots take place there usually
if not working, kareena could be found at the rocky beaches near the port’s lighthouse or off somewhere on an adventure. she is always here to have a good time
honestly kareena is still such a new character for me, so if i think of any other hcs, i’ll add them here
.  ∘ ∗   :   🐝   𝙲𝙾𝙽𝙽𝙴𝙲𝚃𝙸𝙾𝙽𝚂   …
friends from school, could be from seattle or L.A: kareena would’ve kept in contact with those friends tbh shes the type of person to keep her friends around. even if they were just added to her snapchat or followed on instagram. she would keep up with them
toxic relationship / gf: THIS
exes ?? we could definitely plot this out
high school ex perhaps 👀
FWB: no strings attached 
neighbors: she lives on sea sprite lane
family members? kareena would be hoping that left them all behind in the past, but it can’t be denied that she has a big family and she could possibly run into any of them at any moment
omg crush perhaps ! idm if it’s one sided, and it could either be kareena having feelings or the other person
a friend she had a falling out with: she probably met this person two years ago when she first moved here. something might’ve happened and one thing after another, they dropped each other and it was probably the worst falling out for both of them
clients / customers for her business perhaps. or maybe a helping hand!! 
literally anything u wanna do, lets gooo

I'm back darling~ this time I'd love sth for Cassie & her female bestie 😁 bc the xmas is near so Imma give u these prompts: 'I’m a grown adult. I don’t want to take a picture with Santa Claus', 'Hey, want to help me get my parents off my ass about not having a date?'. Have a good day!
Had a ton of fun with this one, hope you enjoy!!!
Cassie Cage x F! Reader
Meeting the parents- I mean, meeting Santa.
----
It was a cold, quiet morning in your apartment. You were enjoying a warm cup of coffee in the early hours, a cheezy hallmark move playing on your TV as you try to work yourself into the holiday spirit. It had been a long year. Your phone dings once, but you ignore it, too focused on who was going to marry Santa. When it kept going off you finally checked it with a sigh.
Cassie-lassy
Hey
Hey, can I ask a favor?
Stop watching Christmas movies and answer me
Cassie was your best friend, but you weren't sure if you liked where this was going.
How did you even know that?
Anyway, whats up?
My parents are throwing a Christmas party this week and are hounding my ass about a date.
And?
Do u think u could pretend to be my gf, just for a day? Just to get them to leave me alone.
You almost choked on your coffee when you read the text. Damn, hallmark movie coming true? Your heart fluttered a bit. Cassie was your best friend. You didn't have feelings for her! That was ridiculous. All she needed was a... friend-to-friend favor. Plus, her dad was super rich, they were totally going to have good food.
Sure, when?
Uh, today good?
The lack of planning was exactly what you should've expected from Cassie. You laughed and drug your hands across your face, she was so lucky that you had the day off.
Bleh, ok. Ur dad better have some good food.
U bet ur ass! Pick u up at 6.
You laughed, and slowly picked yourself off the couch. You hoped that you still had an ugly sweater somewhere in your closet.
The time flew by unfortunately fast. You were rushing to gather your things as Cassie at outside in her 1965 red stingray corvette, (with a mako body) you loved that car so much. You couldn't help but geek out everytime you see it, but alas, there was definitely no time for that today. You frantically locked your apartment as you ran down the steps.
"Sorry I'm late!" Cassie laughed as you got in the car, and that awful flutter feeling returned. Oh no. This is not happening.
"Its chill, I doubt Dad will care if we're late to his party anyway." Your eye twitched, smile still wide on your face. You liked to be on time no matter where you were going, and by the look she was giving you you knew that Cassie said that just to annoy you. You rolled your eyes at her as she took off, the rumble of the car's engine instantly calming you.
Damn. You had never seen a house that big. As Cassie rolled through the big gates you continued to gawk at the beautiful architecture.
"I knew your dad was rich but, seeing how rich he is... is..."
"I know right? He moves into a new house almost every 6 months almost. Each one is bigger then the last one." You felt light headed just imagining how it must feel to have so much money. By the time Cassie parked and the two of you walked to the big doors, you could hear people loud and clear inside the house. This was way different then the tiny little Christmas reunions you were used too.
"I might throw an arm around you and call you nicknames a bit to make it seem legit, are you ok with that? I'm already asking a lot by getting you to come with me in the first place, the last thing I want is for you to be uncomfortable." You laughed.
"Cassie it's fine, all that comes with the 'pretend girlfriend' package." She sighs in relief, knocking on the door.
"Just making sure."
The door opens after a few moments, Cassie's mother answering the door, delighted at the sight.
"Cassie you made it just in time! Your dad just got his Ninja Santa costume out of storage. You should- oh, who is this?" You shyly waved, face flushing more from the situation than the cold. You were glad you were already blushing when Cassie links her fingers through your own.
"Mom, this is my girlfriend." Her mom's face lights up, but you would be lying if you said her obvious military posture and build didn't intimidate you. You introduced yourself and shook her hand with your free hand, making sure to shake with a firm grip.
"Its great to meet you. I was wondering when Cassie was going to bring someone home." Cassie sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose as you awkwardly laughed. Her mom, Sonya, invited the two of you in. Your jaw almost dropped at the inside of the house.
The house was incredibly decorated. Wreaths, lights, an army of elves on the shelves, everything you could think of that spoke Christmas. A giant buffet on the right side of the room and a giant tree in the center of it all.
"Holy shit Cas," you wispered, she giggled squeezing your hand.
"I know right. They overdo it every year."
The rest party was amazing. You met many of Cassie's friends and family friends from the special forces. Kids were livey and running around the place. Even though the mansion and beautiful and intimidating, everything seemed to speak family to you. Every once in a while you would catch Cassie staring at you, but she would always wave you off, face flushing. It couldn't be an actual blush though, this was all an act, right?
"Ho ho ho, Ninja Butt-kicker Santa Claus has arrived!" A voice boomed from the center of the room. Adults laughed while children screamed with delight, booking it towards the gaint tree. Cassie sighed in embarrassment.
"I was beginning to wonder when dad would show up." You tried hard not to laugh when you dragged her to the middle of the room, catching a glimpse of her dad's "holiday spirit".
Kids hopped on his lap one by one, telling him what they want for Christmas, and (probably thanks to their parents,) each one was giving the wanted present and a fake ninja-star. You had thought every child was given a present and taken a picture, so surely he was going to "retire" for the night, right?
"Ho ho ho, Santa thinks that one, special little girl has yet to take a picture." He looked straight at Cassie and winked. She immediately recoiled.
"No. No no no. I'm a grown adult, I don't want to take a picture with Santa Claus." Everyone chuckled around the two of you. And Sonya walked over to push her into the center of the room with her dad, camera firm in her hands. Cassie sent an embarrassed look your way as she was forced to sit on Santa's lap.
"And what would you like for Christmas Cassie Cage?" Cassie looked like she wanted to melt away form her spot. Only answering because she had to.
"I don't want anything Da- Santa." Her Dad let out another Jolly, fake laugh.
"Sure you do! Santa knows everything, you know!" He hands her a small box, and winks at her.
"You know what Santa wants for Christmas? Grandkids." The crowd laughed, and your face immediately flushed a dark red, Cassie almost looking the same way. She covered her face as she hopped off her Dad's lap and speedwalked back to you without even opening the box.
The rest of the party went by so fast, and before you knew it, the two of you were walking back to her car in the cold.
"This was a ton of fun cas," She laughed, you wondered if she knew that you were still holding hands.
"Yeah, I'm glad you came with me. Sorry if my parents were a little overbearing." You shrugged, letting her know that it was fine. The silence after was unbearable. You wondered for a moment if you should ask her out. The party was nice, really nice, but it was honestly just because you were 'pretending' to be her girlfriend. You think she might've thought so too. You opened your mouth to speak, but she beat you to it.
"Hey, so, what if we made this whole... 'fake girlfriend' thing, a 'real girlfriend' thing?" You blushed, giving her hand a comforting squeeze.
"I think I'd like that." Her face lit up with a smile, squeezing your hand back. She stuck her hand in her pocket, and looked surprised for a moment, stopping in her tracks to pull out the box from earlier.
"I forgot about this thing."
"Mabye you should open it?" She let go off your hand to gingerly untie the bow, taking the lid off the box and tucking it underneath it. Her face flushed.
"It's mistletoe." Your face flushed in return. So thats what he ment. Cas started to nervously mumble something, closing the lid on the box, but you held a hand over hers before she put it away.
She instantly kissed back when you leaned in to complete the tradition. The gentle moonlight kiss becoming the only Christmas miracle you needed.
You were definitely living in a hallmark movie.

ngc ramblings part 3- chapter 5
here we are at part 3!!! sorry this one took so long, i originally was gonna make this post include entropy and extus (along with finally talking about face in depth) but it was so fuckin long that im splitting it into 2 different posts! the next part isnt done yet but im like almost halfway done so it shouldnt be too much longer until its out! also before we get into this one:
tw for: death, animal death, and suicide. pls take care of urself and don't read this if those things are triggering for u <3
ok lets get on with the post
at the start of entropy zach doesnt waste any time getting right to the point. this place is bigger than the other planets so far, and zach says the music this time around is a melody that “started out normal but then got distorted” played by a violin sounding instrument. even tho i do sometimes forget that this is supposed to be a creepypasta im not surprised that he said it made him feel depressed and unnerved lmao. anyways, this planet has all new level types in it!! no reused ones!! ok now this is epic. the bosses this time around are megalon, battra, and mechagodzilla, but itll be a good while before we get to those guys because this chapter is long as hell holy shit?? buckle up babez <33 now, before i get into the meat of things as usual im gonna talk abt the planet name! entropy basically means “a lack of order/predictability or a gradual decline into disorder” and that's very accurate to this part of the story. at this point, red is pissed off and is getting desperate, which means from here on out things are going to be getting more intense and more unstable. this world is the turning point in the overall story, basically.
now with that out of the way, zach first goes to the worlds quiz level as usual! this time something was different. usually, in the quiz levels there would be goofy ass music playin in the bg (specifically the GH1D0RA cheat music, if you wanna like listen to it ig?) but from here on out its been replaced by the music from the games password screen, which zach called creepy earlier on in the pasta. im gonna glaze over the quiz again this time, but when we get to the next planet ill talk about all of the quizzes in depth all at once. basically all you need to know for now abt what happens here is face asks “do you like mothra?” and when zach picks no (after going on a tangent abt how mothra sucks lmao,, bro i swear im good at the game my controllers just messed up /s), face enters bastard mode and goes “TOO BAD!” and boom now zach cant play as anyone but mothra. zach is pissed for now but little does he know this is just going to become an even more epic gamer bc of this,, youll never get better at something if you never try and all that.
after that, zach moves on to the first level type- the forest. immediately zach gets an eerie feeling from this level bc he has some kinda fear involving forests at night (i can think of a reason why but ill have to talk abt that later just to be sure). hes also not feelin great about being forced to play as mothra, so the pressure of it all is def starting to get to him by now. the music in the forest is woodwinds followed by slow, rhythmic drums and chiming bells. must have been some ominous woodwinds and bells bc it made him feel like he was intruding somewhere he shouldnt be (oh rlly?? u dont say,, everything up until now has been fine /s). getting into the level itself, eventually zach comes across some weird deer-like monsters just vibing and scares them away when he gets close. later in the level he finds more of these weird deer along with a sloth-like creature on some of the trees and some raptor dudes killing some of the deer. zach shoots one of the raptors but thats about it. nothing really happened in this level but zach noted that he didnt feel like he was playing a video game, but instead it felt more like he was exploring a forest in another dimension. thats interesting for reasons ill ~get to later~ (yall must be so tired of hearing that by now omg,, i know im tired of saying it at least. i was gonna wait until after replay to talk about things but i severely underestimated how long this whole project would be, so i might make a post for the “more on that later” stuff before i get into replay. let me know what u think i should do).
anyways, the next thing zach checks out is the first tv screen level so far. these levels just play an animation with some music in the background, and theres a different animation per level. this time around the animation is of a kid with a beaver(?) head licking a lollipop and the music is the GH1D0RA music that the quiz levels used to use. the only thing of note here is that zach says he had a shirt that looked just like that when he was a kid. after that, were off to some of the weirdest fuckin levels in this whole thing imo- the hourglass levels. these levels have an entirely brown color palette, with grandfather clocks standing in the background (the level appears to be in like a hallway or something) and various time measuring things floating in the air. the music is the same as the board (ig cosby just didnt feel like thinking of what theme this place would have lol). after a little bit zach was rlly happy to see actual enemies from the normal game show up! these are basically like aircraft, tanks, etc. thats not the main attraction here tho, bc this level has its own unique mechanic! this mechanic is the colored hourglass items you can pick up. there are three of them, a blue one that slows time down and makes enemies from the past appear, a red one that speeds up time and makes enemies from the future appear, and a green one that made the time flow normally and spawned enemies from the normal game. zach found the blue one first, which caused a bunch of prehistoric enemies based on real animals to show up. after that he found a green one and fought normal enemies again, and then he found a red hourglass. the future enemies here look like aliens to me, and zach says that one enemy reminds him of something he saw in a book once. eventually, a special future creature showed up and zach was suddenly in a boss battle! or a mini boss battle? that description is probably more accurate. this guy doesnt have a face, and he can only attack by shooting a beam from his face, it sure does look cool! after zach beat it tho, he was off to the next level type, which is basically a toxic waste dump.
zach called it grungy and inhospitable, with the music being a synth ambient loop that made him feel dizzy while he listened to it. this is important because this is the first instance of the game making zach feel something *physically*, not just psychologically. all of the enemies here are mutated to some degree, with him first seeing green mummies with bird skulls coming out from vats of toxic slutch and a brownish cow skeleton monster with spider legs. later zach comes across a deer from the woods, drinking some toxic slutch (delinchous). zach got close to it to try making it stopped but suddenly some enemies came out of nowhere and scared it into running right off a ledge and into the slutch. rip :pensive:. after that zach found more mutated enemies (i.e some things with tentacles and some other deformed thing with human teeth) before he finally gets to the end of the level, where theres another miniboss waiting for him!! this ones a toxic sludge monster with a whale skull who attacks with a mouth projectile and by charging into you. the monster sank into the slutch and thats all for this level babeyy!
the next level is another forest, but this time its winter! its still at night, but this time zach doesnt feel off put, which he mostly attributes to the music. he describes it as a gentle, calm song that almost sounded romantic. the entire first segment of this level had no enemies in it, but dw this level is interesting i swear. the next segment starts out just as empty as the last one, but this time its silent. that is, until the music from “unforgiving cold” starts playing. yaa you remember that place!! i think i said it was less interesting than i remembered but its interesting again now bc it was foreshadowing these levels!! anyways soon after the music started up, zach started to come across tons of frozen bodies of the deer from earlier. some were mutilated, some werent, but they were all frozen and covered in snow. eventually zach does come across something living though, a sloth creature from earlier! its just vibing when suddenly the winter versions of the raptors from earlier rush in and fuckin obliterate the sloth thing. those things just blindly try killing everything in sight, and even start fighting themselves before zach finally gets to the last part of the level.
now this is where shit starts to get crayzay. this part opens up to a big empty field with a full moon and the nice music from earlier back. despite the nice music tho, zach immediately starts feeling dread and eventually he finds a lake. the lake comes down from the sky and starts to crack like an egg, a humanoid figure curled up in the fetus position dropping into the lake below and the moon halves disintegrated. this spawned the moon beast, the hardest challenge zachs had to deal with so far. after he finally defeats it, the screen goes to black and the name “melissa” is on screen, written in red. after that, the screen then says kys. the word kill then fills up the screen, layering over itself until it forms a picture of reds face. its now that we finally get to hear abt the whole melissa thing (which makes it sound like shes been mentioned in the pasta before this but thats not what i mean lmao). to summarize, zach had a middle school gf named melissa (also bro middle school?? wadda hell) who often went into “episodes” where she would stare off, expressionless, before trembling and putting her face in her hands. she and zach hung out in a field at night a lot but one night she just stared at the moon the whole time before running into traffic and dying.
NOW its finally later!!! were not done with entropy yet, but this is the end of part one of entropy so i wanna just take a little break to talk about things so far. this planet is FULL of symbolism and foreshadowing. to start off, i think a lot of the questions face asks at the beginning foreshadow things that happen. some examples are “is time slipping though your fingers?” which could allude to the time levels, “do you have any regrets?” which i think obviously foreshadows the whole melissa thing, “is it safe to go out at night?” and “do you find it hard to sleep at night?” both follow the same kinda theme, which i think relates to how the melissa incident happened at night, specifically out at night. i dont think the forest levels have anything too important in them, other than to introduce the presence of an innocent, harmless creature that doesnt deserve what happens to it later (aka the deer things) which might symbolize melissa. more evidence for this symbolizing melissa comes from the encounter with the deer in the toxic dump and the winter forest, where in the former zach tries to stop it from hurting itself but is too late, being forced to watch it die, and in the latter the same innocent thing from earlier is found dead close to where the real incident took place. the two big themes to keep in mind here are death and time, more specifically the past. most of the enemies here are either made from bones or kill other enemies, there's a dedicated time level referencing things that zach remembers seeing at one point (aka that one alien zach recognized), the beaver head had the same shirt as child zach did, it all connects to zachs past and the death of melissa. as for the moon beast, its the most obvious reference for reasons ive already explained. i dont really know what the moon cracking open and dropping a curled up human into the lake could mean other than some other thing melissa related, but i *do* think that the fact that the moon beast is the most difficult thing zach has faced so far is symbolic of the fact that the trauma from this event has followed him throughout his entire life, and its something he struggles with daily. it could even be the reason why he said no when face asked if he could sleep easily at night. the moon beast also has some black fur around its neck, which i think is meant to represent a tire track, referencing and/or mocking the way melissa died.
its so cool how this entire part of the story builds up to and foreshadows the bomb it drops at the end of the part, giving people something to look back on. a lot of ppl say that as soon as the melissa stuff gets introduced the story goes down in quality, and i do somewhat agree with that sentiment, especially if they want the story to actually be scary, but i think the direction the story goes from this point on is so unique and cool. it does follow the whole “theres a ghost in the game” troupe (even tho it was probably seen as a spin on that originally) but it doesnt do the same cliches as so many other gaming creepypastas do and it really takes the concept and makes it its own. i just think its neat,,,
anyways im done gushing abt this story, lets get on with part 2 of extus!! basically zach has a fuckin panic attack and, after taking a few minutes to calm himself down when its over, he decides that he has to finish the game now because if he doesnt its just going to haunt him for the rest of his life. zach has now realized that the game is “alive” and can somehow see his thoughts and memories, so understandably hes pretty freaked out by it at this point. when he keeps playing, the first thing he does is check out another tv screen level. this time, the animation is of a fish dude just kinda standing there with his mouth flapping open and closed and the music is the neptune board music from the original game. the only reason i can think of for why this is here is maybe the game is mocking zach for the panic attack he just had (bc when u have a panic attack you feel like you can barely breathe, if ur lucky enough to have never had one before and u dont know) but thats abt it. its probably just a random goofy thing cosby threw in there.
anyways, the next actual level is the first labyrinth level. this time around, its a gold labyrinth specifically. the music in these levels is a slow, ominous drum beat with female vocals occasionally coming in and (basically from here on out) the monster zach plays as is now half the size it used to be. i think this shows how zachs feeling at this point, like this whole thing isnt just being a big strong monster and beating up enemies any more, he feels small and scared and helpless in the face of something potentially dangerous that he doesnt understand maybe his confusion about the game is the reason *why* theres so many labyrinth levels here in the first place. anyways im getting ahead of myself. personally, i think the aesthetic of the gold labyrinth is very similar to the green temples back on trance. while trance had a more circular and soft theme to it's architecture and sculpture, entropys is much more square or rectangle oriented. despite this, i think that the golden mazes at least are another religious kind of building, and the architecture is just different because theyre two different cultures who just happen to worship the same spiritual figure (aka melissa. did i say that earlier? i think i did,, if i didnt well the religions worship melissa, not knowing she's a dead human or anything. probably).
moving on, zach notes how the gold labyrinth would probably have been impossible to navigate as any of the other monsters, so turns out face being an asshole was a blessing in disguise after all huh? anyways this place is full of weird gold monsters, lava/fire traps, and stone faces (both in more of an easter island head style and in the regular feminine headshot weve seen so far). zach comes across two feminine heads, one that is more adult looking and pure gold, and another one that looks much younger and whos eyes have red irises and blue scleras. this statue apparently looks a lot like melissa did on the night she died, so zach leaves it pretty quickly. i *think* this is the first time we see the color blue associated with melissa? if it isnt sorry abt that, its been a couple days since i worked on ngcr so ive forgotten some of the smaller or more subtle things by now. GOD i keep getting side tracked ANYWAYS eventually zach finds a non-gold enemy and sees it get picked up by like an arcade crane claw. hes curious so he follows the claw, only to see the monster be put in a big gold cauldron and walk out the side of it as a gold monster.
gonna be honest, no idea what the hell this could mean. like? theres been no themes of corruption or good things becoming evil so far so this just kinda. exists,, yea idk lol. im not part of like any discord servers or anything so all this theorizing and analysis has just been me, maybe getting some small ideas from like random youtube comments or something, so if something ive said so far has been unanimously disagreed with somewhere i dont know about it. thats also why this isnt really a definitive or comprehensive analysis (even tho im trying to be as comprehensive as i can).
anyways zach finds the exit soon after and hes on to the next level type (there's so fucking many of them ik dont worry weve almost gotten to all of them now), the indigo cliffs. the background of these levels is similar to the blue mountains from trance, but now the moon and clouds from the toxic dump background is also here (and colored indigo to match). the music here is just a deep rumbling noise. the first “enemies” he sees here are just a bunch of multicolored little guys coming out of a hole in the ground and jumping off a cliff. were continuing the death theme yall!! anyways zach continues, flying over some more weird creatures (tho some of them just look like dinosaurs lol) before he sees a bunch more of the multicolored guys out and about but this time theyre getting grabbed by birds!! wadda heel!!! zach comments on how the multicolored dudes seem eager to die and thinks maybe the moon has something to do with it (like melissa dude wat!!!! that's crazy /s). at the end of the level there were some more multicolored dudes just walking into a creatures mouth so zach attacked the thing and killed it and the levels over yay!
now its time for the bosses babeyy!!! first zach fights battra (basically an evil moth kaiju), the music is varans theme. battra starts off in his larvae form, where he basically just fought by running into you and shooting stuff at you. while fighting this form, zach noticed that the game buffed mothra because his gamer skillz were too cringe lmaoo. he beats the larvae form and battra goes into his second form, where hes basically a stronger clone of mothra (misogyny). zach fights battra and has fun doing it (for once,, good for him) and he wins yay! next hes fighting megalon (a big beetle/bug kaiju), whos music was gigans theme. im tired when im writing this so ill just give you zachs description of how he fought: “strong, persistent, but dumb”. after this, zach checks out the last tv screen of entropy. this time, it shows a big buff guy with a sack over his head hit a womans head with a sledgehammer while shes tied to a table or something. the music for it was the password theme. i think this is probably here because red is getting angrier? like this guy is still here after i triggered his ptsd?? what the hell!!!
anyways before we get to the last boss we have one last level type to get through- the shadow labyrinth. at this point, zach starts to feel drained because no shit sherlock you just had a panic attack and youve been playing this game for fuckin several hours at this point of course youre fuckin drained. anyways zach enters the shadow labyrinth, which is a black recolor of the gold labyrinth. the music is “evil ambience” similar to unforgiving colds music but distinctly different apparently. there werent any enemies so zach just kinda wandered for a while until the lights turned off, darkening the whole screen and (secretly) spawning tons of spooky enemies thatll chase and hit mothra in the dark. eventually the lights came back on and zach started scrambling to the exit. when the lights turned back off, zach was able to find one of the melissa looking statues and stood next to it. it warded off the monsters while the lights were off, so zach was safe. i think this shows 2 things: 1) its a little more validation for my “religion in this world worships melissa” theory and 2) it foreshadows the way melissa wants to protect zach at the end of the game. zach beat the shadow labyrinth a lot faster than the gold one so were done with all the stages now!! now theres only the last boss and red and were done with entropy!
the last boss is mechagodzilla, but when zach starts the level, normal godzilla is there instead!! its whatever tho bc soon the disguise is gone and its just pretty much the normal mechagodzilla fight (but now hes got a gay beam). at about half health tho, mechagodzillas sprite breaks into pieces like gezoras did way back on earth and reforms into not-mechagodzilla. even tho it looks uncanny (and the usage of the face statue on the front is probably there to further mock zach bc melissa) zach beats it p easily and now its time for the chase. ba dum ba dum thats the sound of a chase.
as usual tho, before i get to the red chase its time to talk about entropy as a planet!! i think the best way to describe the layout is “a big forest with a toxic waste dump in it takes up half the planet while the other half is a large religious temple/labyrinth with a dangerous underbelly”. there doesnt seem to be any intelligent life there now (its all dead by now probably) but there was at some point at least because imean the huge labyrinth is there dude!!! i dont have much to say for this section tbh bc i feel like i've already said everything i wanted to, so its time for the chase ig!!
basically the chase with red here takes place in a labyrinth level bc of course it does. this labyrinth, however, seems to be made of some kind of organic matter. is it flesh? organs? nondescript viscera? idk but it's pulsating and bloody. also this time red has wings too!! anyways, basically zach avoids red throughout the maze, red breaks through one of the walls with his big alien tongue, and zach gets to the end of the maze. nothing crazy happens at the end of this chapter (i think it was crazy enough as is) so thats the end of that and now its time for the penultimate planet- extus.

Camping Date  - (A Gordie x Lilac Fanfic)
“Gordie and Lilac share a lovely camping trip with each other as they have a mutual crushing relationship. Lilac also meets Gordie’s Pokémon team properly for the first time, and desperately hopes they’ll like her...”
I hope you guys enjoy this silly little fic I made for me and Gordie ;w;! (rbs are always appreciated!)
Subcategories/Tags for this fic include: Pre-Canon (basically before Gordie and I get together/married), Fluff, Mutual Pining, Humour/Romantic Comedy, Friends
fic under the cut ♡( ◡‿◡ )
Gordie suddenly stopped in his tracks as a message from his good friend kept him from pacing down his hallway for the twentieth time.
Raihan: ayyyy mate
Raihan: you ready for that camping date w lilac??
Gordie’s cheeks flushed at the word ‘date’.
Gordie: Raihan it’s not a date, she wouldn’t wanna go on a date with me.
Raihan: nah she totally would. have you seen the way she acts around you?
Raihan: I’m proud of ya son
Gordie: shut up
Raihan: also she sees the way you act around her, you know
Raihan: sooo its obv she has feelings for you mate.
Gordie turned his head away from his Rotom Phone, not looking at the text to make himself calm down; he definitely had feelings for her, but, could he really have his hopes up like that? That she liked him back?
Gordie: I’m just glad she accepted my offer to hang out with me tbh
Raihan: mhmm... ‘hang out’
Raihan: so you two could smooch in the stony wilderness eh
Gordie: stop making this romantic raihan
Raihan: why? because you can’t accept the truth? lol
Gordie: ugh
Gordie: just don’t make me nervous before this. it’s really big for me
Raihan: i got you bro! you’re gonna do great.
Raihan: she loves your pokemon (and you) I can tell.
Raihan was right at that. Ever since the Gym Challenge that made them Gym Leaders, Lilac always showed interest towards Gordie’s Pokémon team. It was probably the only interest towards his Pokémon then, but it continued on to their careers as Gym Leaders, and that’s what he loved.
Gordie: thanks, mate. i’m about to get into a flying taxi to head over now. see you :]
Raihan: my man’s gonna get a gf!!!!! good luck out there lad!
---
Gordie had just finished setting up the campsite in the Stony Wilderness when he heard a Corviknight squawking and flapping its wings nearby. He knew it was Lilac’s taxi, and began to walk up to the seating area he set up for them, which was a tree trunk he found nearby that his Tyranitar carried over for him (such a strong guy, Tyranitar!). 
And before he even knew it, Lilac poked her head around the corner of the two stones that were just behind the trunk bench, smiling.
“Gordie!” she greeted him. Gordie involuntarily gave her a beam, hugging her. It was a tight hug, but not too tight: like a big Beartic hug saved just for her. After all, he couldn’t really help but feel anxious in a peculiar homesick way whenever the two couldn’t see each other at work. 
“Hey, Lils! How have you been?” he said, trying not to trip over his words already as he heard his heart beat against his chest. “You find your way here alright with the cabbie?” 
“It was fine! The guy even mentioned he liked this place quite a bit. Said it was a great location for a d- uh, you know, just a nice campfire with your Pokémon!”
Gordie laughed in agreement, but wondered about the cabbie knowing about their date; if he knew, the news could spread out to the public and everyone could know, including his mum of all people...! (Not that she didn’t know they had ‘unrequited’ feelings for each other anyways.)
They both heard the low, neutral growls of Gordie’s Pokémon, looking behind them to see the whole team clamoured around them both in a circle.
“Oh, they’ve noticed you’re here now, eh?” he said, turning around to face his team. “Alright, you lot. Lilac’s here, okay? She’s gonna be camping with us, so all of you on your best behaviour around her!” 
Lilac grinned to herself at that statement, comparing it to Gordie instructing a bunch of mischievous kids like he was a teacher. But, she always knew his team could be mischievous like little kids themselves, including Shuckle, who was quite fussy over PokéDolls. And, to be fair, her team was playful in their own ways as well. 
Lilac sent out her Pokémon with each Poké Ball’s signature zap, releasing her team for a play outside with Gordie’s. Pikachu looked around at the Rock-type Pokémon, inquisitive as the rest of her team went out on the grassy field to play.
“I’m surprised Pikachu let me put her in her ball,” she stated. “but she loves to play with Coalossal, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it was for him!”
Gordie felt his cheeks heat up; maybe it was such a simple statement, but the fact even her Pokémon were in a good relationship with his seemed like pure happiness, like everyone was getting along... Even with all the Gym Battles they’d been paired up with, Pikachu and Coalossal seemed like Poké Buddies, through Gigantamax and thin.
Gordie cleared his throat to distract from his now very rosy cheeks. “How about you take a seat? I’m gonna make curry for all of us, I’m sure we have enough for two teams!”
“That sounds lovely! Thanks, Gordie.” she replied, sitting down on the trunk and propping her cane up against the side of it, consoling her shy Togedemaru as Gordie came over to his curry-making pot to set up his ingredients.
---
In her eyes, Gordie always made the best curry for her. He once made her Moomoo Cheese-Covered Curry at work and fell in love with his cooking skill since; if she married him or moved in with him it would mean all the best meals for her and their Pokémon in the World...
When everyone had finished their curry, Gordie and Lilac sat on the trunk as their Pokémon played together. It was like watching their - quite large if taken both figuratively and literally - family run around in the park as a married couple.
 Lilac quickly scratched those thoughts out of her mind; what was she thinking already acting like she was married to Gordie...? A breeze came across their faces and Lilac sighed, trying to distract from the ridiculous daydream she had. There was another question on her mind, ever since she arrived at the Stony Wilderness.
“Gordie?”
“Hm?” Gordie perked up from the sudden question from them being so silent as they relaxed.
“Do you think... Coalossal likes me? Like, doesn’t hate me or whatever?” she puffed out, cheeks in her hands.
“No, I don’t think so. I think none of my team dislike you in any way. How come you ask that, Lils?”
“He’s been staring at me for a while...” 
Gordie turned around to see Coalossal gazing at Lilac from afar with somewhat confused and focused eyes. If he’d ever seen eyes like those, he just wanted to play with Lilac.
Gordie got up from his seat and started calling for Coalossal. 
Coalossal let out a dim roar as he walked to Lilac, yet his footsteps were so powerful and loud against the soft grass. It shook Lilac to her very core, holding onto Gordie and then freezing in place when she tried to escape.
“Gordie! He’s mad at me-!”
“Don’t worry, it’s okay, he’s coming over with me here...!”
When Coalossal let the last booms of his footstep echo throughout the field, he was dangerously near Lilac when she spotted something in his hands...
A ball. 
“Ah?” Lilac exclaimed. Coalossal gave her a happy expression, a cheerful rumble coming out of him as he leaned in to give her the ball with his large, yet hilariously stubby arms. Shuckle patted her ankle with one of his strange, limp arms, calming her with little ‘shuckle-shuckle’ sentences of his. It was a weird, but a very reassuring feeling.
“You scared her a little, Coalossal! Next time you wanna play, go up to her nicely this time, alright?” Gordie chortled with a wide smile on his face. Coalossal replied with a purl and Lilac threw the ball for Coalossal when she had finally unfroze. The same pounding footsteps continued as Coalossal chased after the ball, catching it to play with Barbaracle and Boltund, with Boltund yapping away. 
Lilac laughed at herself for being so silly around Coalossal, and turned to Gordie. At this point, she became quite fixated on him; she noticed how reassuring and motivating he was, especially recently around one of his main and very intimidating Pokémon. She didn’t notice she was staring until he looked himself into her eyes. His cute eyes. Her cute eyes, he thought.
“Gordie?” she asked again, but with an explicitly more shy tone. “You know, I think I like you too.” 
Gordie inhaled a sharp breath as a wave of relief swept over him from the amount of tension he had experienced, tense over whether or not she liked him.
“Really?”
“Yeah... Y-Yeah, I do. You’re...”
Their heads moved in close together, a move completely involuntary, but a move needed to break the feeling of unrequited feelings between each other.
“You’re...”
A loud cry from Pikachu startled both of them, when they peeked together at what made her do that, Shuckle was cradling her like one of his PokéDolls. 
“No! No, Shuck- I’m so sorry, Li- Shuckle, that is not one of your PokéDolls! That’s Lils’ Pikachu! Drop her now!”
Lilac watched on as Shuckle cried out in retaliation, disappointed that they were interrupted so suddenly, but still amused at how much of a toddler Shuckle acted like. She leaned down, petting her Togedemaru, returning to near her legs.
“That’s Gordie’s team for you, isn’t it, sweet?”
---
Lilac: gordie, i really enjoyed that camping time. shuckle’s so funny :3
Gordie: he is, isn’t he? haha, little troublemaker
Lilac: lol ^^

GF - Arm Wrestling
I know, I know, IknowIknowIknow I got issues, but I had a really bad day (heck, a pretty bad week) and I just had to do something that made me happy, so I wrote another little story for @siro-cyll​. The last few days have been... wow. It’s been rough for me, but every time I get on my phone and see how many people like my art... especially after going for so long without acknowledgement at all... it just reminds me how wonderful people are and that my work can make people smile. Thank you all so much. You all have proven to me that I should never give up. - N.S.
(By the way check out this video if ya have a huge crush on Stanford Pines and wanna hear him sing -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fauO1uGTXVc )
~~~~~~~~~~
Tumblr media
Fiddleford cleared his throat, a feeble attempt to get his colleague’s attention, but to no avail. He sighed and sat cross-legged on the grass, his backpack full of gear by his side. He propped up his head by his chin and on his fist, his elbow on one knee, and he watched half-bored, half-amused, as his best friend arm-wrestled a unicorn. And no, the author did not mean to put down “harmed, wrestled and mourn”, nor did the composure of this tale mean “alarmed and sworn in”. No, the anomaly-researcher was truly arm-wrestling a unicorn, and had been at it for a few hours now. It all started with a little journey to the mystic part of the forest. As girly as it sounded, these grown men were on the hunt for unicorns after they had encountered sparkly fairies and magical(?) gnomes. Stanford had used his deepest voice to summon the entrance to the land of the unicorns (the same deep voice he used to sing Many Brave Souls Were Lost in the Deep), and they had met a dazzling horse with make-up that posed in front of a waterfall, a fawn painting the scenery and the creature. Her name was Celestabell, daughter of Celeste and mother of Celestabellabeth. She had beautiful purple, blue, and pink hair, and she had shining eyes and a dazzling horn, but her beauty was only skin-deep and did not penetrate her sparkly fur. She was annoying, getting on Fiddleford’s nerves, but she enraged Stanford until he lost his temper, stripped off his trenchcoat and sweater, leaving on his yellow t-shirt, and he challenged her to an arm-wrestling match. This was all three hours ago, and none of the competitors looked ready to give way. Fiddleford decided to try to grab his friend’s attention another way. “Ford?” No answer. “Stanford?” He blinked, but his focus did not waver. “Stanford Pines.” “Fiddleford, please, unless your life is in danger, I really must focus.” The young scientist growled, his fluffy hair shadowing his narrowed eyes. “On top of a true test of upper-body strength and testosterone, I’m now in the middle of a vision-based battle of wills.” “So… you’ve now gotten into a starin’ contest with a unicorn.” Fiddleford said plain as dry bread. Celestabell gasped in offense and horror, her eyes started to wander ever so slowly. “It’s not just a staring contest you uncultured sw… AH, HA! Nice try, Pines, but your friend’s pointless and empty questions will never get me to look away and lose focus! NEVER!” “Pointless and empty questions?!” Stanford repeated, brown eyes flashing. “That’s it, you fancy, frenzy of a horse! You’re going down!” “Just try you pompous human!” The colorful insults were thrown around until Stanford swore as bad as a sailor and caused the unicorn to nearly faint, only tightening her grip on her opponent’s six-fingered hand, making him wince in pain, and the battle of wills continued. After seven hours of arm-wrestling, Fiddleford made himself comfortable against a boulder and took a nap. After nine hours of arm-wrestling, he woke up; the sun was setting on this beautiful summer’s day; the fireflies and magical plants were lighting up the enchanted forest. After ten hours of arm-wrestling, Fiddleford opened a newspaper. After eleven hours of arm-wrestling, he put down the news on paper. “Can I get ya some water?” He asked his friend. “Please.” Stanford replied, not taking his eyes off of Celestabell. Fiddleford unscrewed the cap of the cantine of water and handed it to Stanford. He took a swing, gave the drink back to Fiddleford, and wiped his lips dry, refreshed and more determined now than ever. After thirteen hours of arm-wrestling, Fiddleford sighed and left; it was midnight now. After fourteen hours of arm-wrestling, he came back with a paper-bag full of fast-food and fed Stanford a fry at a time to help keep up his strength; if Fiddleford was going to stick around for his friend for so long, he might as well do whatever he can to help him win. After sixteen hours of arm-wrestling, Fiddleford began to play his banjo, smiling that Stanford was too busy fighting with a unicorn to stop him from playing. After eighteen hours of arm-wrestling, Fiddleford started to rename the constellations. After nineteen hours, he got to enjoy the sunrise. After twenty-one hours, his patience was beginning to thin. “Seriously, y’all, after a whole day y’all ain’t gonna just give in?” He asked. “No!” The two said in unison, their limbs quivering. Fiddleford kicked the grass and asked the fawn if it wanted to play cards. After twenty-two hours of arm-wrestling, the fawn and the southerner were tied two games each of poker. After twenty-three hours of arm-wrestling, the fawn threw a tantrum, and shoved some playing cards into his mouth, making Fiddleford chase it around the gated forest. After twenty-four hours of arm-wrestling, Fiddleford plopped back on the grass to watch boringly, his cards long gone. He then awoke with a jerk. Fiddleford took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. When he slipped his glasses back on his face, he looked at Stanford, who had heavy bags under his eyes but still somehow had a great amount of strength and energy to keep fighting; honor and self-respect can get you very far. Fiddleford checked his watch. Thirty God-forsaken hours?! Lord Almighty, enough is enough! “Stanford, for the love o’ all that’s holy, will ya give it a rest?!” Fiddleford questioned. “No!” Stanford answered stubbornly. “It’s not just about the victory, it’s about the respect!” “You lowlife creatures know nothing of respect!” Celestabell sneered. “Tearing down our sanctuaries, using our homes as your tools, raping our resources and taking what you want because you can!” “We’re not like that!” Stanford growled. A wave of pride and a strong desire to one-up this annoying anomaly coursed through his veins, and he slammed the hoof down on the tree stump. “BOOM! HAH!” He yelled, vaguely reminding himself of his brother, but he was not going to let such poisonous memories ruin his victory. “No!” Celestabell cried out and hid her head under her crossed hooves. “NO!” “YES!” Stanford did a little boastful dance, swinging his hips and taping his feet. “Admit it! You lost! I defeated you, you… walkingonedimensionalpinkvprissysnobsterrotype!” Fiddleford, Celestabell, and the entire courtyard full of unicorns gasped in upmost shock. All eyes were on the man who had dared let his big-Pines-family-mouth get in the way of his logic. He paled a shade and swallowed nervously. “You dare insult me in such an unlawful way?” Celestabell, enraged, trotted her hooves and snorted. “NAY! You of unpure hearts have overstayed your welcome here! Let your blood grace our floors when we split you in two!” “Oh, geez.” Fiddleford groaned. “RUN!” And that was how Stanford got his very firm opinion that unicorns were, for lack of a better PG word, frustrating.

The funniest thing about june teasing katara and zuko about being a couple is that she just sees a pretty girl and an attractive guy, both looking almost the same age which immediately makes her go "you two must be a couple" and it just reminds me of zvtara shippers, you know what i mean? I'm convinced one of the reasons a lot of ppl ship them is bc of their looks. katara being the female protagonist and also a pretty, smart and powerful girl & zuko, despite not being the male protagonist, being the most attractive guy in the gaang. Boom, a "bomb ass ship". It is worth to recall that "people ship zutara bc they projected onto katara and had a crush on zuko". And if they say they don't ship them for that reason, then it's bc they read too much between the lines in every interaction they have. So, back to june, she didn't even care if they had chemistry or if they were friends or anything, she just straight up teased them about being a couple lmao. Because in all honesty zvtara can be an appealing ship in anyone's eyes but THAT'S IT, it doesn't go further than that. I can be testimony of that😅Before even watching the show i was like june, one day i saw a zk fanart and was like "wow aren't those zuko and katara from atla? They look so good, she's gorgeous and he's hot" i already knew kataang was endgame and that mai was zuko's love interest but seeing zuko and katara together was pleasing to my eyes. However once i watched the show for the first time (2 months ago i think) i realized there was really no romantic chemistry between them, nothing, literally nothing, i mean, i wasn't even waiting for the zvtara content in the show that made ppl ship them so much, i was actually very neutral about ships, i couldn't care less about them, but i still realized nothing was happenig between them and that it was obvious since book 1 ep 1 that kataang was endgame. Zuko and katara were two teenagers from opposite sides of a war that tried to kill each other multiple times and when zuko changed sides they developed a completely platonic relationship. As i said, people either ship them because it's an appealing and aesthetically pleasing ship (water/fire, enemies to lovers, opposites attract, the common red & blue ship) or they just love reading too much between the lines, OR BOTH, because they were so thirsty about it they ended up convincing themselves there was romantic tension between them, that they liked each other and that zvtara was scrapped when it was never planned in the first place. Not to mention the reasons why they claim zvtara should've been endgame are based only on symbolism and things they have in common that are just so ??? Random. e.g. (i saw these on a post on facebook and the comment section was hilarious, it was full of ppl being sarcastic about it & making fun of it) saying they should've been canon bc:
1. "They both lost their mothers at a young age" (?)
2. "katara was good but had rage in her heart and zuko was bad but had good in his heart so it was like yin and yang, and that was the main purpose/topic of the show" (?)
3. "they both had alter egos (painted lady and blue spirit)" (???) this one sounds like saying maiko was canon bc zuko worked in a tea shop and mai worked in a flower shop😂
4. "Zuko was the only one who supported katara in taking revenge on her mom's assassin" (?) if you ask me, that just proves zuko is not right for katara, he led her to do something she was gonna regret later (not trying to hate on zuko, i love him, and since i love him i acknowledge his flaws. I understand why he thought it was the best thing to do, he's an impulsive and resentful boy (he would've done the same if it was his mom) and he noticed how thirsty katara was for revenge, ofc he wanted to help her + he wanted her to accept him and thought it was the right thing to do in order to gain her trust, but it wasn't) unlike zuko, aang tried to make katara come to her senses and do the thing that was best for her: forgive and let go, and it was basically what she did at the end. She didn't do what zuko expected her to do. She did what aang expected her to do. She didn't forgive her mom's assassin, but she forgave zuko, and she didn't do THAT thing she (and aang) knew would regret later. Aang knew katara and what was the best thing for her to do.
5. and the most ridiculous one, "they both saved each other's lives in the final agni kai"(???????) and the funniest part is that it was followed by "WHAT MORE PROOFS DO YOU WANT???". Honestly wtf did ppl expect? Did they expect zuko to stand there and watch katara die? Did they expect katara to just stand there and watch zuko lay on the floor & die? And this has been said a million times and i am going to join and say it once again: zuko would've done that for ANYONE from the gaang, he would've done the same for toph, sokka, suki and aang. Because he learned to care about them. As for katara, she would've done that for anyone too wtf she healed aang once too and even brought him back to life. (I wouldn't be surprised if zk shippers used that as a parallel for romantic zvtara proof bc they're just like that💀)
There were more "reasons" but they're just so stupid and taken out of context like "they care for each other" & "katara was the one who encouraged him to talk to his uncle" like yeah that's what friends do. Basically all zvtara shippers do is REACH.
Also, i just can't see it happening. I like the enemies to lovers trope, maybe if the writers really intended to make it canon, i would have been down for the ship, it would've been interesting to see how it developed, but,, they didn't, and later i came to the realization that if it would've really happened, it would've been so... weird. Time to bring up the "colonized and colonizer ship" and how some ppl feel uncomfortable about it. Besides the fact that a relationship between zuko and katara wouldn't have worked (they're incompatible af, katara is a girl with a strong character and zuko is a guy with anger issues that takes everything personal, they'd be at each other's throats 99% of the time) it's just weird to think that katara would choose to marry a man from the fire nation, the nation that caused a big war that traumatized her, the nation that took her mother away from her. Imagine katara ruling along with zuko a nation she despised for years. Fire lady katara doesn't sit right with me, and i'm sure it doesn't sit right with a lot of ppl as well. I don't see katara doing that, and yes, i know she forgave zuko, but still, she would've never done that 🤦🏽‍♀️ i think it would've been so OOC tbh.
Another thing i laugh my ass off at is when they say "zuko should've chosen katara instead of mai" as if they were ever in a relationship for zuko to say "ok imma choose katara i wanna be with her". As if katara was EVER an option for him. They never showed interest in each other, what's not clicking?????? And zuko only had eyes for mai, not to mention that despite zuko and mai had a rough relationship, no girl would've dealed with zuko's bs better than mai. Can you imagine katara dealing with zuko blowing up over everything? Because i can't. Also people saying things like "zuko deserves someone who is always there for him and listens to him" (and ofc they're talking about katara) like, ok, you hate that katara is aang's "therapist" but you want her to be zuko's therapist. Logic? Where? And I do remember mai being a supportive gf and trying to cheer him up multiple times. Did they watch the same show as me?
Zvtarians try to play the victims about how they were "robbed" bc some voice actors shipped them and from what i've read people who worked for the show suggested to go for zk, but that's stupid, it doesn't count as "they planned it but scrapped it, we were robbed". The only word that counts are the creators' voice and they have stated they were always rooting for kataang, so no, you were not robbed.
People are just so in love with the idea of zuko and katara together they really convinced themselves it was likely to happen. Honestly zvtara it's a fine ship as fanon but ppl ruined it for me and what i hate the most is when they ship it and hate on aang and mai at the same time and make them look SO bad to invalidate kataang and maiko. Saying aang is abusive and mai is toxic is complete ✨bullshit✨ and lastly, it's ridiculous when they say the creators were cowards for not making it canon. They're cowards for not fulfilling your greatest childhood wish? Something they never planned? It is THEIR show. If you hate sm how things turned out then quit atla once and for all and go find another show that you know is gonna give you what you expect,,, it's tiring that they've been crying about it for 15 yrs , like, i joined the fandom recently but i can imagine how tired old atla fans must be of this.
OK so I have a lot of thoughts about this and firstly,,,anon I appreciate the dedication that it took for you to write  this, and I agree with many of your points. However, the attitude I have on this blog towards Avatar ships is far more neutral than what you’re saying.
Ultimately, romance is not and never was the focus of Avatar. Romantic development was always secondary or tertiary plot, and the entire show was far more focused on platonic relationship development. My attitude towards shippers on here - including Zutara shippers - is that people can ship what they want, as long as they’re respectful of each other and of the other characters that “interfere” with their ship. End of the day, shipping is irrelevant to the core of the show. 
People shipping something because they find it aesthetically appealing is honestly,,,fine. Personally, I think it’s reductionist, but I don’t care if you do because everyone has the right to enjoy media however they want to. 
That being said, we absolutely should call out racist or problematic tropes that we see, including ‘fire lady katara”. I also agree that it’s upsetting when people bash other characters in order to further their ship, as much of the bashing is also pretty racist and/or misogynistic. Calling that out, however, is separate from calling out every single person who happens to enjoy certain ships. 
“She didn't do what zuko expected her to do. She did what aang expected her to do. She didn't forgive her mom's assassin, but she forgave zuko, and she didn't do THAT thing she (and aang) knew would regret later. Aang knew katara and what was the best thing for her to do.”
I understand where you’re coming from, but I honestly disagree with this take. Both Aang and Zuko were approaching the situations from their own life experiences, but Katara didn’t do what either of the boys wanted. She chose her own path, by both sparing Yon Rha’s life but also refusing to forgive him. The episode is about Katara and her personal trauma and its focus should not be on her relationships with either Zuko or Aang. 
When I make posts such as this, it’s less about hating Z*tara and more about how this fandom focuses all its attention on romance and shipping, to the point where if you acknowledge a relationship’s importance it’s assumed you pair the two romantically. I don’t read Zuko and Katara’s relationship as romantic (for reasons that it would take too long to explain here), but their relationship development is extremely important, the two of them share tons of parallels and the final Agni Kai marks the culmination of both of their character arcs. Yes, Zuko would have taken the lightning for any of the characters, but it’s thematically important that it was Katara. None of this inherently means it’s romantic, but refusing to acknowledge the significance of the relationship between them is equally reductionist. 
This isn’t an attack on you, anon, and you’re 100% allowed to have negative feelings about a ship. But at the end of the day, it’s not worth getting this worked up over. If I were you I’d focus more on creating/consuming content for a ship you like than bashing ships you don’t!
