Hi!! Can I request headcanons about being best friends with Nico and Will (together), kinda having that “couple who adopts their bsf as their child” dynamic reader is a child of Demeter and if it’s no trouble can reader be female? GN will work if not.

SOLANGELO +1 — headcanons

you call it third wheeling, i call it quality time with the parents

CHAR: will solace, nico di angelo, grover, mentioned!percy jackson, mentioned!annabeth chase

PAIRING(S): solangelo + daughter of demeter!reader, mentioned!percabeth

A/N: this is gonna be a nightmare to tag lmao

when new campers meet Will for the first time, they’re almost always introduced to Nico next

what they don’t expect, is for you to pop out of nowhere introducing yourself as well

they jump slightly at your sudden appearance, and reciprocate your greeting with slight confusion in their voice but then Will gladly explains the situation

“This is Y/N, daughter of Demeter.”

“Yeah, and these are my dads.”

“Y/N that’s not—“

it would be so much funnier if you were taller than both of them

that sends some campers in a spiral, especially the younger ones

once the new camper is recovered they then automatically understand the true nature of y’all’s relationship

some are slightly confused on why you seem so glad with the arrangement you three have going but most support it and find it amusing

if the three of you are ever going anywhere you’re usually in the front as the actual couple trail behind you holding hands

all of the friendship accessories you three own are thanks to you!

you made matching bracelets, a custom bead to add to the camp necklace just for the three of you, and the cliché flower crowns your cabin is known for

the flower crown was made of an assortment of flowers — lilies, chrysanthemums, and sunflowers which all not coincidentally mean or have some correlation to friendship

you have most definitely been the first to witness Will playing a love song to Nico in private

not wanting to interrupt the moment you made all the plants in the area grow greener and have flowers sprout around them

it was a miracle on how both of them didn’t notice your antic sooner

as you were making the plants grow around them from the bush, Will had stopped strumming as Nico looked at him with one of his rare smiles when they both leaned into each other

but of course Nico just had to feel the suddenly grown flowers tickling at his ankles and immediately spotted you — watching you run away from your hiding spot

that situation is what led to you to believe was the reason you kept on being invited to their dates

were you complaining? no, of course not

you had the ability to snack on all their food after all and they have no one but themselves to blame

“Where did the cookies even go?”

“…whoops.”

as their honorary child you were not technically counted as a third-wheel

Will had jokingly dubbed it a ‘family bonding time’ whenever you joined in on his Nico’s time together — them not even doing anything special, but you still joined anyways — and the name stuck

in all honesty Will is happy with the arrangement you all have together

don’t get him wrong, he would enjoy the moments he and Nico have together all the same even if you weren’t there, but your presence and witty comments coming from nowhere make it all the more cherished

also, your ability to make scenes more romantic is very highly appreciated; making him choose more woody and grassy areas so it’s easier for you to romanticize them

Nico on the other hand would’ve enjoyed it more if he and Will were alone away from your eyes

but he supposed yours was different — making the moments they both have feel more domestic so he didn’t necessarily consider any of his or Will’s actions PDA when it was you

you never really paid attention anyways

the romanticized scenery caused by you made Nico scoff but he was grateful for the added atmosphere — which was quite a compliment since he normally disliked such clichés

Grover once tried to talk to you about it and relate to the feeling of being the third-wheel like he was with Percy and Annabeth

it didn’t lead to an outcome he expected

“And they’re like: ‘be safe. I love you,’ and then I’m just standing there wondering if they’ll ever tell me that because you know, life-or-death situation going on right? But they never do!”

“Damn bro, that sucks.“

“Does this not happen to you?”

“Nope. We yell at each other to be safe.”

A/N: school is absolute shit

Cardan’s letters pov

Part 2: nearer

A/n: this part is a fair bit longer lmk if you wanna be tagged for the other parts

Part 1. Part 3

I stared at Taryn from across the room. She was laughing at something a courtier had said. I’d contemplated asking her if she’d heard from Jude, but as far as I knew she still thought Jude and I hated each other. And asking as to her well-being would be suspicious.

“Cardan.”

It took all my self control to not flinch at that voice.

I turned to him, “Locke.”

“You seem to be particularly gloomy tonight.”

I ignored him and looked at the faeries, all of them drunk or drinking, laughing and dancing. Happy.

“You could have you pick of any of them.” I could hear the smirk in his voice. “Maybe more than just one. Wouldn’t be the first time now would it?”

I wish Jude was here. I’d ask her to stab him. Not so bad that he would die, just enough to shut him up.

I’d been like that the past weeks. I’d sent the letter 8 days ago. She’d now been gone for 19 days. If past Cardan could see me know, moping over a mortal, fantasising about my former best friend getting stabbed, not even touching the wine in my hand, he’d laugh and sneer, call me pathetic.

“No it would not.” I still didn’t look at him.

“This mood wouldn’t have to do with a certain Duarte sister’s recent exile would it?”

“In case you’ve forgotten, Locke,” I threw as much venom into his name as possible. “I exiled her, I knew exactly what I was doing.”

“Yes well, usually by now you’d be drunk out of your mind, a few lovely ladies draped over you and a gaggle of courtiers hanging off your every alcohol-slurred word.” He laughed. “Seems that that crown has made you rather boring.”

I wanted to throw said crown at him.

“Come join the party, a bed that big is surely too big for only one.”

There was only one woman I wanted in my bed. And she was currently in the mortal world.

“Perhaps you should be more worried about the amount of people who may be in your wife’s bed.” I threw a pointed glance at Taryn, standing awfully close to a green-haired faerie.

I would bet my title that Locke had not stayed loyal to his wife. The fae had twisted views on fidelity to one’s spouse, it was frowned upon, but also expected, especially among the likes of Locke, who believed they could do whatever they wished, I wouldn’t be surprised if Taryn took another lover to balance it all out. I had no intentions of ever betraying the trust of my wife.

Though I had already done that when I exiled her hadn’t I?

Locke didn’t even look at Taryn. Since we were both married to a Duarte sister, that technically made us brothers, though I would rather be drowned than ever acknowledge that to him.

“What my wife chooses to do with her spare time is none of my concern.”

Yes, like pretend to be her sister and trick the king into removing his general from his oaths, allowing him to do whatever he wants.

“Did you have any particular reason for bothering me Locke?” I looked at him, brows raised, unamused.

“Yes, about my birthday.”

“Your birthday is in five months.” That was it?

“Yes, I have something extravagant planned and I-”

I could see where this was going. “You are not using my gold to pay for your foolish personal revels, you have enough of your own.”

There was a flash of anger in his gaze as he said, “Very well. It appears some of Jude’s sensibility rubbed off on you,” and he left.

Good riddance.

I turned my attention back to studying Taryn. Everyone said they were identical, and they were, but I could tell the difference. Taryn didn’t seem to glow the way Jude did. Didn’t draw attention, didn’t make me want to do foolish things like declare how I felt for the world, risk war simply to get her back, do the things that haunted my most depraved thoughts.

Or maybe I couldn’t, since Taryn had fooled me. But I had been poisoned. And she had a strange quality to her skin.

I got up from the throne and left the party, walking to my room.

I was going to write another letter to Jude.

Locke was right, the bed was too big for just one. So I had to convince my wife to come back to me, to join me in that bed.

Jude,

Please come home, back to me, I need you

Why was putting my thoughts into words so difficult?

Maybe I should’ve been paying attention in school instead of getting drunk and spending half my time tormenting Jude and the other half staring at her and hoping no one noticed.

There had to be a reason she hadn’t come back didn’t there?

I assumed she was staying with Vivienne in the mortal lands, where Oak was as well. One would think if anything happened to her Vivienne would tell me, or at least tell Taryn, and if Taryn heard, Locke would, and he would undoubtedly lord it over me.

No.

Jude was stronger than that. She would never let anything in the mortal lands harm her, even if through nothing but force of will.

I wondered if her every waking moment was as filled with thoughts of me as mine were of her.

The guard had assured me that the last letter had made it to a messenger, so I didn’t see how she would not get it.

There was only one other reason she wasn’t coming back: me.

Had she felt that betrayed by the exile that she was staying away to spite me? Was the thought of being married to me, being my queen, that horrible that she didn’t want to come back? It seemed like something she would do.

Jude,

Since I cannot imagine there is much in the human lands to interest you, I can only suppose your continued absence in Elfhame is due to me.

I urge you. Come be angry at a nearer distance.

Cardan

I refrained from begging her to come back. Though if she didn’t respond to this I very well might.

If I had any clue where she was I’d go there personally. But I’d need to ask Taryn, and I did not want to talk to her.

This time I personally took the letter to a messenger I found scampering through a hallway. Half human male. Might be inclined to deliver a letter to another human.

“Make sure this gets to her.”

He nodded and took off, no questions as to why the king was sending a letter to his exiled seneschal.

It was out of my hands now.

All I could do was wait.

okay okay questions:

Would they have their Pokémon out while hanging out? (/you might’ve mentioned this before and I can go look but what Pokémon?)

Are Pac and Mike often defeated in gyms? Like I know they’re difficult to defeat but is it something that happens kind of frequently or is it a very rare thing?

this is all I can think of right now but I might come back later with more. thank you \o/!

(SORRY FOR THE WAIT I REMEMBERED I HAD TO MAKE FELPS TEAM)

First thing I need to tell you bc I think u might got it mixed :D

I have my own pokemon au, tagged with '#pla au', which is the one that has felpac and time travel. But im also talking with @miscellaneoussmp about their own pokemon au :D

In the pla au, pac and mike aren't exactly gym leaders, they're battle facility bosses. Which means people go to them to have battles over and over, unlike a gym that once you beat it, you move on and won't battle anymore

Pac and Mike work at Gear Station, where the battle subway is. Anyone can go through 21 cars, beating other trainers, until they get to the subway bosses. Mike runs the single line, which means he fights with one-on-one pokemon. Pac runs the double line, which means he fights two-on-two pokemon. They both fight together at the multi line, which is two trainers vs two trainers, each with one pokemon at a time

They're the subway bosses, which means they are fairly difficult to battle, especially since the battle dynamic in the subway is different. They get defeated around like, 4 times per week. A lot of trainers manage to get to them, but most end up losing. So, semi frequent thing!! They take well to their losses tho, they mostly love the thrill of the battle

And YES they do have their pokemons out and about!!! Since we're focusing on Pac and Felps, I'll go for the two of them first

Pac sometimes has his galvantula on his back, like a very electric backpack. She likes hanging around with him like that when they're waiting between battles. But, most of the times, Pac carries with him a lot of joltiks, all being from his galvantula's litter. They hide in his jacket and pockets and often go out to cause mischief

Gavantula ⬇️

Joltik ⬇️ (THEY ARE VERY SMALL. FIT ON YOUR PALM)

Felps usually has his typlosion out, since its very well behaved and chill. Its a typlosion from a different region, as he tells everyone (not technically a lie), and its why its part ghost. Sometimes they're seen napping on each other

Typlosion while not on a battle ⬇️ (when its stand, its just a bit taller than Felps)

Typlosion while in battle ⬇️

Now, if you want to know as well, here's Mike's, Bagi's and Cellbit's out and about pokemon

Mike's Crobat ⬇️

Don't fall for its grumpy expression. Its a very loving and actually cuddly pokemon with Pac and Mike. It only evolves with big affection, after all

Bagi's Reuniclus

Loves to help!! Is a great listener to Bagi's rants and helps around with her gyms enigmas (Bagi is a psychic type gym leader in the same city Pac and Mike live)

Cellbit's Houndoom

A lil shit!! Loves to steal things and put them in other places. It also helps Cellbit a lot in grabbing pencils and other papers, running around to get them quick and sometimes burning them but its okay

(SORRY IF ITS TOO MUCH DETAIL I RLLY LIKE THIS AU AND WORLD BUILDING)

A pokemon trainer can carry with them a total of 6 pokemons, but in the battle subway is different: 3 pokemons/team allowed in the single line, 4 pokemons/team allowed in the double line, 3 pokemons/trainer allowed in the multi line. Normally, a trainer would have only 1 pokemon out for better handling on the situation if the pokemon was raised into a fighter

#pla au #IM SO!!#qsmp

regarding your recent post:

I'll be honest, I'm either rooting for blitz or prowl lmao X3

blitz cause he's gone out of his way to do these things for bee that you listed in the other and his pure admiration and love for the lil' bug. blitz has nerve and gut to do those things, especially for an autobot ; who are the enemy since he's a decepticon, blitz's own fraction and leader are an after thought, and I respect that to an extent lol

can't really say the same for shockwave/longarm tbh but he's trying lol

and prowl because of the chemistry he and bee shared in the canon of the actual show. I'm pretty sure there are two episodes dedicated to just the duo working together or bonding cause they're the embodiment of technology and nature. I like this one because it fits more into the canon and they just give me brain rot >v<

and bee just seeking protection from bulk from all three is funny and cute to me! like, bulk and bee are long term besties of course they'd protect each other. bee just running to bulk, asking for a place to hide (from longarm and prowl lmao) and bulk agreeing. so, bee just naps in bulk's subspace while he's doing something as prowl and longarm wander around the factory

yeh me too X3

Blitz is literally attached to the Decepticons by nothing other than the fact he's scared of Megatron, it says so on the wiki even. And now Megatron is gone so technically there's nothing holding him back from doing what he wants and ditching everything to pursue the yellow scout that stole his Spark.

Prowl knew Bee for a while and had grown to admire him in secret. He never thought about asking him out cuz there was never an occasion- plus he thinks that Bee will turn him down cuz he's so different from him. (even if they get along great as they are)

Longarm/Shockwave is just stuck in a perpetual loop of "What's more important: Job or Love?" So he's just trying to cope with everything at once- seeing how every choice will impact his and Bee's life and all. It's a lot even for his processor. Although, similar to Blitz, Megs is gone atm so there's nothing holding him back from casually switching sides once and for all and devoting his life to Bee.

Bee is just there very confused and worried to why everyone wants to date him all of a sudden. I mean, he likes the attention but he doesn't like how possesive each of them get. He doesn't wanna be treated like a prize, but like a loved one. Bulkhead is just trying to help him out and so is the rest of the team- when Bee suddenly disappears they don't tell Prowl or Longarm where he went on purpose. Prowl is smart enough to understand Bee avoids him which saddens him. He wants to apologize but he never gets an opportunity.

Tbh after Blitz reveals Longarm is a spy there are 2 routes it can go; Longarm gets arrested and Bee is hurting cuz he did like him and Shockwave is just being depressed in his prison cell. Or Longarm pulls an uno reverse and says he's been an Autobot spy in disguise and been doing infiltration missions in secret to get Decepticon files, effectively earning him a good favor with Bee. (he's not really registered in the criminal records, he has access to that if he needed to delete it and all his actions have been anonymous from the start, few know of Shockwave's existance.)(Blitz knew Shockwave for a bit but he is too dumb to see thru Long's lie.)

Either way it's most likely that both Blitzwing and Prowl get to date Bumblebee. If Shockwave does decide to pull the uno reverse then he tags along too. Don't worry they learn to share nicely and that there is enough love for everyone.

though BlitzBee is my favorite but don't tell them

#maccadam #tfa #ask box #blitzbee #prowlbee #shockbee #crack idea

overview cont. i guess lmao. no one asked but its been something in the back of my mind for a while now & i got an anon tonight telling me i come off intimidating and i feel the need to just. make note of some things so that hopefully if anyone feels a certain way with how i run this blog then like. know and understand both my side as well as that my dms / disc is open for anyone to pop into -- just obv depends on the headspace at the time.

i know this is long & am sorry if it doesnt make sense but. just setting it gently out there.

but, again, my disc ( same as my url ) is open for any mutual. its open to shoot the shit. open for plotting. open for memes. what have you. i may not always get to every message. i may not be in the headspace for certain things or certain energies. but its open for anyone as long as we are mutuals & if handles are different between here & disc then i just get a heads-up abt who you are so i know lmao

likewise, i am fairly fucking slow writing-wise and alot of that is because of offsite issues chipping into me but also because most, if not all, of the things i DO have in the inbox or drafts are from my affiliates at this time ( tho i do have some more from the archive i need to move over from a couple people ). alot of my spoons and drive to write and post is because of the dynamics and plotting built between our muses. im not a blog centered on plotting but, it does help to have a better idea on how to navigate between muses c: esp for those technically outside of my kiddos' texas canon obviously. that being said, anyone is welcome to like any inbox calls i put out there. and my inbox is always open and accepting, even if i havent reblogged prompts in a while -- i have my tag linked on my pinned and its available always & for whomever. it just comes with the understanding that i may take a while to respond to them & they may not get as expansive as some of my posts can get with my affiliates; which again, is just simply from how much we've been building together that helps with that!

on that note. my connections with my texas pals are very dear to me. both ic & ooc. as i noted in my overview post, i talk about the dynamics we've built openly and freely here because theyre so integral to my portrayals. they & their kiddos have my entire heart and i unapologetically love having fun with them and going on tangents with them and bouncing thoughts off of each others posts on the dash.

my experiences in other corners of tumby rp have not been particularly kind. and its been a long time since ive felt comfortable especially ooc with writing partners. and i understand if i may come across closed off or intimidating or unapproachable. i understand if i also come across partial to them / play favorites because frankly... i am. i do. thats because they've built bonds not just between characters but also with me. ill be very transparent and say that i am very particular in who i get close with and that translates into here too. but thats also just something that easily can also happen with literally anyone. again i do understand if i come across closed off in any sense but genuinely? im not scary and i have options open for continuing to grow more connections with people c: theyre open always. what im not going to do, however, purely out of personal experience is chase after interactions. the last fandoms i wrote in i did so and it wore me down into my last hiatus. i will show equal enthusiasm to whats given. but i wont fish for it, either. its just not my cup of tea.

i like to think im fairly patient and understanding in a lot, probably moreso than i should in some cases -- sincerely though if theres issues know that im fine with it being brought up. but im also not going to be welcoming nor tolerate my boundaries being disregarded or disrespected, im already dealing with that with an offsite friend. not dealing with it here. i do not like feeling so uncomfortable existing on my own blog or in my own disc. and i get that already with my personal disc & this offsite friend in particular. im not dealing with it here too.

which on that note, i also wont be receptive with issues regarding what i post, what i talk about, who i write with, who i choose as affiliates or mains or w/e. my blog & my dash are my safe & comfort zones and these muses often help me alot with navigating when my headspace is at a fucked up level. if any of that is a concern yes youre welcome to come to me and talk it over but end of the day? my comfort & mental state is a priority to me. if thats ever an issue i truly would just recommend you do what you feel is best for you. everyone existing on this hell-plane are entitled on curating their space in whatever manner they see fit.

again. i promise im not scary. im not an ass. but i do curate my space to be in my best interest and at my age & experience across the 10+ yrs ive been rping on and off here, ive seen alot, heard alot, experienced alot. i do apologize however if i do come across unapproachable or intimidating. i do apologize if i seem closed off to only a select few. i dont mind if you follow / we're mutuals solely just to keep up with what i write! thats completely okay too and i thank those who are <3 but if i seem unapproachable i literally just gently gesture again to my disc or prompts tag etc! i welcome any to get to know myself or my muses. regardless of how much time has passed since following one another. just again, comes with the understanding that my social battery & headspace often does work against me. and thats not personal against anyone, ever.

#[ 𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘦. ] ── * psa.#im hoping this all reads fine and w/e cause im fist-fighting with a headache rn but.#just to hopefully idk. make a few things known? i guess? transparency a bit? again i promise im not a scary person lol but i am just.#careful with alot of avenues. and i get this post is also fairly rigid in tone most of the way but im. pretty tuckered out by alot #and being known as like... intimidating is something i have personal issues with re: old friends offsite. so. trying to state what i mean #as direct hopefully as possible.

1. What fic of yours would you recommend to someone who had never read any of your work? (In other words, what do you think is the best introduction to your fics?)

probably time, curious time that is specifically lighthearted and fluff

2. Go to your AO3 “Works” page, to the sidebar with all the filters, and click the drop-down arrow for “Additional Tags.” What are your top 3-5 most used tags? Do you think they accurately represent your writing habits?

angst, fluff, idiots in love — lmao, yes. i think for the most part i’ll either write about angst or fluff or both. and the idiots in love well they were idiots in love for a hot sec there lol.

8. What song would make a great fic (to either write or read)?

the archer, taylor swift — so you actually put this idea in my head ♡ you answered a question a few weeks back about what song you associated with tim and it just fits so perfectly??? i can just picture each line being different points in his life from childhood, marriage falling apart, pushing everyone away, lucy breaking down those walls, etc. and his mind frame during these periods in time.

23. What’s a trope, AU, or concept you’ve never written, but would like to?

an actual multi-chaptered story lmao. i’ve technically successfully finished one but it was a 5+1 so i don’t count it as a multi-chapter. i just want to write a story from start to finish because the idea are in my head, words are just hard to get out sometimes (most times) 😭

30. Have you ever written something that was out of your comfort zone? If so, what was it, and how did it affect your approach to writing fic thereafter?

smut!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my goodness this is a freaking art. i’ve dabbled~~ but i haven’t fully written out a smut scene because it’s so hard??? i literally have a wip that is the last chapter to a fic that i’m struggling to finish because i’ll write, read it over, and then second guess myself lol. it’s affected my approach to writing in being conscious of the balance that a spicy scene needs? like when i think of the ones that i enjoy reading the most, they’re ones where feelings and emotions support the technicality of the action written.

35. What aspects of your writing are completely unlike your real life?

any that deal with engagement/marriage/kids. i haven’t experienced any of that yet so writing it sometimes is a bit out of my element because i don’t really have a frame of reference for it except what i’ve seen with others and what i hope for.

42. Have you ever received a comment that particularly stood out to you for whatever reason?

i think any comment that has something quoted back and why it stood out to the person reading or how it made them feel is just ♡♡♡ part of what i’ve always loved about storytelling is seeing what resonates with others, it's always really cool to see.

45. What’s something you’ve improved on since you started writing fic?

dialogue. i’m looking back at what i’ve written and it wasn’t until the fourth fic i posted that i included a conversation between two characters haha. it’s still something that at times does feel challenging especially trying to capture different voices with the right cadence but i think i’ve gotten better at maintaining the pacing of a conversation and how it ties into the general flow of the fic.

49. What are you currently working on? Share a few lines if you’re up for it!

this will be for hold onto me 'cause i'm a little unsteady from lucy’s perspective with thinking about her own parental trauma and the fears that come from it

She hates how much of her life they’re missing out on because they can’t be proud of the daughter they have. Something she ultimately learned to accept upon finally having someone wholeheartedly believe in her. While every move and decision she makes is seen as a failure in their eyes, Tim sees the opposite; he taught her what it was to be believed in, provides the reassurance that she could never disappoint him, reminds her that she’s enough just by being who she is and how he loves her for it.

Your Cabinet Man AU has made me WEAK

But really it's so cool! I was just wondering how you think your AU would react to the Ninja from the actual show? Like its a stupid thought but I always find crossovers, etc. interesting and whatnot

Also is Morro like apart of the Ninja team or more on the side and doing his own thing? Living his life(again). And for Seabound does Morro play a active role and have his powers acting up too since him and Nya are technically “not elemental masters” and are their own thing. I can see Morro feeling so guilty that Nya was the one that went and blaming himself, cause he isn't “needed for the team”(depending on how you're doing this of course and you seem to like angst as much as me). And where does he go when everyone seperates.

I'm just really into Morro’s part for this AU

(My brain has been going a mile a minute thinking about the differences between your AU and the show have and how yours has so much more angst)

WAHHHH THANK U THANK U I saw all your tags on my posts i'm glad you like the AU :DDDDD

I'm not one to think TOO much about how canon characters would react to AU versions of themself, but I feel like Canon Jay would be like oh my First Master is this guy okay (spoiler alert he's not)

Since they both hide their traumas behind jokes, they'd probably see through each other pretty quick and have a mutual trauma dumping session lmao

i also decided that Skybound wouldn't get undone at the end of the season bc i Really Hate that plot point so Canon Jay (or at least how i draw him) and CM! Jay have different scars and I think it'd be funny for Canon Jay to be like "OH MY GOD THE SCARS FROM NADAKHAN ARE STILL ON YOUR FACE" and CM! Jay responding with "wELL WHY DOES YOURS LOOK LIKE A LIGHTNING BOLT SCRAPED DOWN THE SIDE OF YOUR FACE"

I think Morro would be like a temporary member of the team! He stays with them for a while to recuperate and get used to being alive again, but he does want to work out his own emotions and find a life and purpose outside of trying to be the green ninja. He has a room in the monastery and everything but he's only there like half the time. I DO think it'd be very interesting to have him play a role in Seabound, especially since wind and water would BOTH be affected by everything going down. I'm not sure exactly what that role would be since most of Seabound I was. Sobbing. And I haven't had the heart to rewatch it yet LMAO

Morro's biggest purpose in the AU so far is to help Jay, actually. The two become pretty close as Morro helps Jay go through the same issues HE went through in terms of coping with being an Alive Person again. This is partly self-indulgent bc I want Morro and Jay to be friends so bad so so so bad canon why did you take this from me they could've been pranksters together it wouLD'VE BEEN SO FUN-

also yes! my AU has much more angst than canon heehehehe I like the themes of hurt/comfort that angsty scenarios can provide, so I'm kinda fucking up Jay more than canon does heeheehehehe also it's kind of hard to make "trapped in a video game for half your life and not even realize you're a PERSON" not angsty

Skybound is 100% on me tho I looked at that season and went we did not see Jay suffer enough so it's on me to fix that and also fix the rest of the season too bc it kinda sucks i have a love-hate relationship with it

#ANYWAYS I HOPE YOU APPRECIATE THIS RAMBLE i've been so busy i haven't been able to make new art content but i love talking about it #so asks are ALWAYS welcome to fill that void of time until i can post again #BUT YES THANK U SO MUCH I'M SO GLAD YOU LIKE THE AU AHHH #cabinet man AU #ninjago #galaxyhantalks #ask #jay walker #prime empire #skybound #seabound

Hello, Happy (late? Its 1 am so I think technically late) birthday :) I just saw in yer tags that you decided to play Slay the Princess on your birthday, and I wanted to ask what you thought of the game :)

thank you~ ^^ i'm more than happy to talk about it!

short answer is that yes, i did play, and i had a really good time! I did one "full run" of it. for those curious, i got these in order: the Fury, the Razor, the Damsel, the Prisoner, and the Adversary.

it's a game i'd definitely recommend to anyone who's at least slightly interested in it! and that it's absolutely one that's the most fun going into as blind as possible, BUT by its nature, you'd still have a lot to discover on your own even if you watched someone play part of most of a run ;)

(more concrete commentary and vague spoilers below)

(and of the routes i got, I think Fury and Adversary are my favorites, though I did the Godkiller branch of Fury so I'm really curious to get that again and try going with the Broken's suggestions heh)

I ended up getting what I think could be called a 'middling/Neutral' ending, which was fine, I was playing to explore and pick what felt right in each moment rather than get something more definitive. I think I got a lot of insights by the end of my route so I'm eager to get back into it and play the game at least like 2 more times.

I REALLY enjoy the game, I think the ideas behind it are so cool and I love how it has so much replay-ability. like, I watched Joseph Anderson's playthrough of it (which was super funny, though I didn't finish watching the end of it bc he got a different Ending than I did and I didn't wanna see every detail of that), and it was really interesting to see not only what other routes he discovered, but how when he encountered routes that I'd also run into (Razor, Damsel), he managed to get slightly-to-moderately different versions of them! Like, his version of the Princess at the end of his Damsel route was totally different from mine!

The presentation is perfect, too. I'm already quite familiar with Jonathan Sims' voice talents of course, since I've been a huge fan of The Magnus Archives for the last ~5 years, and he wrote/voiced in that podcast. He does a phenomenal job acting out all the Voices in STP, and it was really nice to hear him performing again (even as I'm keeping up with the TMA sequel podcast, where he also voices, just not as predominantly!)

The voice acting for the Princess was amazing too, I LOVED hearing all the different variations of her vocal presentation. I thought it was such an immediately cool detail... especially since I chose to take the knife down with me on my very first go at it, so my first impression of her was the much more dangerous and stern delivery, which I wasn't expecting - I anticipated the writing to have her play innocent at first, but of course I know now why that wasn't the case, hehehe.

and of course the artwork is amazing. i LOVE how it's kept to a more sketchy, work-in-progress feeling style, i think it conveys the fragility and impermanence and transformative nature of the game and where it takes place. and of course all the ways the princess is stylized, both more subtly and obviously, in each route, is one of the most fun elements of discovering new versions of her. a lot of the compositions are great and i love her expressions a ton!! uhg just really great artwork all around

and speaking of art, the ost is fantastic, really perfect ambiance as well as tracks that convey the feel of each route, like, i'd call them each uniquely textured in a way perfectly suited to each. i'll probably throw the ost on by itself at some point to try appreciating the music on its own a bit more

overall great game!! im excited to play it again and im curious just how many variations of paths and endings there are!

Blue Honey Context!

[ In reference to this; (Loser's Corner) where I mentioned it but not really in the tags ]

Fair note; There's context that needs context that needs context! so please bear with me here in my rambling! You're getting some of my LOOOOORE and it might be alittle long! Thus i'll make it a read more uwu

So let's get started! With this;

The "Bee's" you encounter on the Hex are not natives but instead mass-produced badniks called Galaga Bee's (obviously, since when you hit them they give you Animal Friends (Flickys/Cluckys/etc)). There's a lot of 'native' critters that i've made to flush out the Hex since the most you encounter that aren't badniks are bigger Beasts (Sandworms, Swamp Crocs, etc); the Beewasps are just one of them! (In fact theres three variants/palettes depending on the Biome the bees live in!) I go more in depth about all of the Hex Inhabitants in my lore bible, I promise some of you'll get to see that at some point!!!!

When Eggman got to the Hex / the D6's territories and introduced/spread badniks everywhere, alot of the smaller native critters fled in confusion or fear and don't return until after the events of LW / after the 6 (7) clean up what was left behind by the egghead; which is why none are seen during the course of the game except the usual "Animal Friends".

------

Context on top of context on top of Context-

Zenyx is a BeastKeeper, meaning she has a much higher, natural affinity for taming or befriending Beasts and Critters than any of the others; she loves all the critters, but the bee's are just too cute!

Back when Zenyx first joined the group, they were finding things she could do in each biome to “help out”, since she couldn’t be seen or known about outside the group/territories (Offcolor issues) and her own Biome is basically useless. The best she could do was beast/critter related, such as sheep handling in Windy Hill for example, since she was just naturally better at it than the others. When she was introduced to the Sandwood Hive (aka the second stage in Desert Ruins), she immediately fell in love with the little beewasp fluffbutts! And they didn’t seem to mind her at all, even getting extra cooperative after she managed to befriend the Queen of that Hive. Doing so allowed her to collect various honeys from them- so so so much easier than the big silly doofus that’s Zomom, who the bees weren’t as fond of (at the time) due to his size, loudness, and bottomless appetite.

At some point, Zenyx comes across the Blue Honey, and the first person she thought to share it with/give it to was Zom! (Technically theres a few different Honeys that vary in color, it all depends on what the bees ingest to make said batches. Certain flora or fruit may effect tastes and resulting colors, but the vivid Blue Honey that she jared at the time was from the beewasps' going off and ingesting sugary sweets left aside by a nearby (out-of-territory) market setting, giving the resulting Honey a more candy-like sweetness- trust me this all makes sense!) The first few times she gifted the Blue to him, he accidentally kept eating the jars too- 😂 he doesnt anymore though dw! He knows better now and consumes the honey a lot slower now.

----

Finally! Blue Context!

Zenyx likes being food buddies with him, and as such they have little or silly easy names/nicknames for certain things- just between them (sometimes Zazz wiggles his way into their food vocab tho). Which results in both of them just calling the Blue Honey “Blue!” since it’s one of the very few edible things that are such a vivid hue of it.

So during LW, when Zom comments on Sonic’s color [ “Blue! My favorite flavor” ] he’s actually being serious- bc Sonic's color reminds him of the Honey! We’re told his favorite food is meat... and bc Blue Steak is a thing, (its essentially just Extra Extra Rare... nothing to do with the actual color)- It's completely possible thats what he was talking about- BUT to be less morbid and bc the idea of Zom having an inside joke with Zenyx about calling the blue honey just "Blue!" (and him thinking about it just by seeing the color elsewhere) is way cuter/funnier! I like to think his favorite flavor in general is more candy-like or sweets... 👉👈 So during that moment when Sonic/the Player probably think Zom’s just being silly/stupid or something, the whole “Blue” thing now has proper meaning (at least for me!). --- That being said, in the Losers Corner drawing; Zenyx gifted the jar of Blue Honey to Zom as a reward for trying (the tourney) so he didnt feel so bad about losing (bc she cares)- before she conked out next to him to catch some Zzz's of course.

--- I rambled about the whole Blue Honey thing FOREVER ago with the lovely @galionne-speeding (-vibin/-digin) (luv u lilllyyy) and we both agree it's adorable and mayhaps adds just a smidge of depth to Zomom even if it's silly; I swear if I didn’t ramble off most of these little things with her, at least half or more of them would be lost bc I’m brainless at keeping notes sometime-

And thats the Blue Honey Context ramble! 👍✨

#my art #sonic lost world #zeti hcs #lost world hcs?#long post #long-ish anyway #zenyx #zomom #yup thats it #thats the blue honey context #silly context is silly- on top of context on top of context #theres so much context needed for so many things im so sorry #theres alot more stuff that galionne knows about shrimply bc we mutually spout ideas and lore (about multiple things/fandoms)#bc 1) i trust her <3 and 2) if we didnt im sure we'd both explode or something-#i have so much........

Fave Shows Tag Game

Rules: List 5 favourite shows (in no particular order) and answer questions accordingly.

Loki

Leverage

The Flash

9-1-1

Only Murders in the Building

@johnsimms Thanking you for tagging me. Love these. Answers under the cut

1. Who is your favourite character in 2?

OT3 as a set but Parker as an individual. From her in season one to her in Redemtion the growth and to still be so mysterious makes me smile. There is also because she helped me with some of my own emotional difficualties.

2. Who is your least favourite character in 1?

oh but this is hard becuase I don't think i have a least favourite from Loki. Maybe the bearded Loki varient who I think is the Hippie one. Kinda creeps me.

3. What's your favourite episode of 4?

Chimney Begins and Oceans 9-1-1 are tided in place as my all time favourite episodes of 9-1-1. Some days one exceeds the other but most the time it's a tie. Ones all the drama the other all the comedy I love it.

4. What is your favourite season of 5?

Both have been so much fun to watch but maybe season 2 of OMITB because it wasn't so confide. Like the whole 'Oh shit here we go again' just makes me happy. They know what they're doing now and they've grown to love each other and want to help/protect each other more. And the twists and sudden 'Oh Shit' revelations. I looked forward to a new ep each week way more than I did with season 1.

5. What's your favourite relationship in 3?

Cisco and Everyone. Like he's the little black dress of the arrowverse. But particularly Cisco and Harry make me so happy and Cisco and Cynthia. Just the rough and ready to throw down with the sunshiny sparkle is a trope I love.

6. Who is your anti relationship in 2?

Eliot and Sterling. I just do not understand that. They hate each other so thats a rivalry I can get behind.

7. How long have you watched 1?

Since it aired. Well technically I waited for it to get a couple episodes in so I could have a few to watch in one go. So like from ep three upload date onwards.

8. How did you become interested in 3?

My brother bullied me into wacthing it. I get it cause I've been bullying him to watch Leverage (he hasn't yet I must bully harder). I enjoyed the comics before and seeing the characters in a different way on tv was cool. And being introduced to ones I'd not heard much before was real cool. I hate he was right about me enjoying it; it's fun and enjoyable (at that time it was) and well acted for a show off SeadoubleU.

9. Who is your favourite actor in 4?

Kenneth might be the most fun and play my favourite character but Jennifer Love Hewitt might be my favourite actor overall. FinalGirlScreamQueen alum has to take the top spot on this show.

10. Which show do you prefer 1, 2 or 5?

I've rewatched Leverage way more than the other. Yeah it is older and has more epiosodes even if you combinded the other two shows. It might be dated a bit and have some not so good peole involved you can say the same for the other shows. At the end of the day if all three them in a burning building I'd save Leverage.

11. Which show have you seen more episodes of 1 or 3?

The Flash and it's mostly because it's a full season worth of episodes and not a limited one like the others. Saying that I quit the show becuase it was getting bad and if they had made it limited it might have been better.

12. If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be?

Oh but this is hard cause like I'd want to be like Maddie or Chim or Hen or Bobby cuase they all so cool and have qualities I admire. So since I have a job a little like hers I'd say Maddie.

13. How would you kill off your favourite character in 5?

It would have to be something very dramatic and over the top for Oliver. I don't see him being a simple run of your mill death. It can't be a stage accident or something related to the theater. Something that would be more of a puzzle than we've already seen. So bludgeoned to death by his own phone so many suspects for it all to turn out to just be an accident after all.

14. Would a 3/4 crossover work?

Okay but this is hard becuase a crossover between the two would be hysterical. Team Flash and the 118 fighting crime together. Hen and Chim treating Barry but he's already healed up. Buck investigating the weirdness while Joe and Athena tell him to leave it to the professionals. Just the chaos that would be Cisco and Chim together with Hen and Caitlin rolling their eyes at their antics. Just think of the jokes that could be had. Think of them.

15. Pair two characters in 1 that would make an unlikely, but strangely okay couple.

Besides Lokius, Miss Minutes and Casey. Unlikely partners. Give them a spin off ala the office.

16. Overall, which show has the better cast, 3 or 5?

Another hard one cause I adore both sets of main (OG) casts. Like they're all so multi talented and amazing. But like I've known/watched Steve Martin Short longer and they're like a comfort pair since FotB. Their ability to make me laugh than cry and laugh-cry in OMITB is top level. But with that I do love The Flash cast and want to see where they be going next.

I'm not sure who to tag so if you see this and would like to give it a shot I tag you.

#Sorry it took so long to do this I'm still not happy with my answers lol

Thoughts About False Claims About TF-EarthSpark & Toxic-Humans Problems With Nonbinary...

[Note: Reading This Post Is Optional. also just in case, this will be a mature audience only type, as well as not for kids....the tags will be in there. this will talk about some mature stuff, and even the stupidity of humans who seem to have a problem with Aces, as well as some of them not getting that “sexuality” happens later in life and no one is just born with it from the start.

also, please don’t reblog this without my permission. ]

okay, found out there was another video that had some human jerk, seeming to have a problem with a nonbinary character in Transformers....well so far in Transformers: EarthSpark.

and well, if it makes them and others like them happy, then maybe the rating can be change to TV-14, since they seem to think that there being a nonbinary character, is corrupting their children.

yeah, ya don’t seem to realize that is what YOU are doing, so stop scapegoating.

also there is such a thing that is called romantic identity, that has nothing to do with that mature stuff, that some humans on both sides, seem to put more important and seem to have a problem with Asexuality...

no matter if I flux or not, some humans who seem to have a problem with Aces of different types, will not be very attractive to me.

and yeah, there are Heteroromantic-Aces, ya insensitive humans.

some will be straight and some will not be, so please get a freaking clue, and stop making assumptions of someone’s romantic identity because of them being Ace, and I am speaking about both sides, and not just the toxic-straight people, who seems to think it is a problem to be Ace....

and yeah, I still think being Aroace can be different for a Cybertronian from Transformers and a Gem from Steven Universe.

for a Gem, like Peridot, she doesn’t feel comfortable about fusing, and she had pointed out that Garnet’s fusion had made her uncomfortable, and yeah she did try to fuse with Garnet, but stop because she didn’t feel comfortable about it.

and Garnet accept Peridot’s choice, and even explain to Peridot why she is fused all the time, which after explaining about it, that she is like Percy and Pierre from Pining Hearts, Peridot’s OTP....

is when Peridot finally understood, and yeah Garnet is a romantic fusion.

and I think over time, Peridot got use to Garnet being herself and always being fused, but it seems that after becoming married (Ruby and Sapphire), Garnet does unfuse at times, and Ruby & Sapphire can do their own things that don’t involve them being Garnet, and they can still be in love and together, even without being Garnet most of the time.

for Gems, and Half-Gems, fusion can be either romantic or platonic.

and if a Gem doesn’t want to fuse, they shouldn’t be forced into it.

Peridot, if she does decide to fuse, it should be of her own choice, and free will to do so, but if she doesn’t want to, then no one should make her do it.

she’s perfect the way she is, being the small adorable gem she is.

also Beast Wars, had made me realized some days ago...

that Tigerhawk is a relationship, and was technically the first “Garnet” and romantic fusion, of course it started out with Tigatron and Airazor’s bodies being forced fused together thanks to the Vok, but they had ended up having their sparks find their way to Tigerhawk, and it was Tigatron and Airazor’s choice to have their sparks fuse together and re-enter their new body.

Tigerhawk is a symbol of their love for each other, and is them fused together.

so Tigerhawk, is a romantic relationship, same as Garnet.

Cybertronians combining into a new transformer with their own personality and identity, can be seen as a type of fusion, like Gems.

and with a Cybertronian way of fusion, there can be some who don’t feel comfortable about fusing and combining with other Cybertronians.

and they shouldn’t be force to combine if they feel uncomfortable about it.

Cybertronians and Gems, who are Aroace, or just Ace, shouldn’t be made to fuse or combine if they don’t want to, and shouldn’t be force into it.

the same goes for the thing with some humans, your taking the romantic feeling of love out of it...

it would be interesting, if the rating for Transformers: EarthSpark is changed to TV-14, cause some human jerks still have that problem with Nightshade, and think they are corrupting their children, but once again, Nonbinary Earth Angel right here, oh and if anyone is corrupting the children, it’s your disgusting scapegoating, at least I can acknowledge that my repeating a bad word when I was just a baby, isn’t the characters from the movie or show’s fault, it is the fault of those who are suppose to watch me and make sure I don’t hear those type of words until I am at the proper age to hear it, and same goes for letting me watch a movie I was way too young to view before, which might be fully the fault of one of my much older cousins and not my Mom, but after talking about it with her before, I might of forgot that it was one of my much older cousins who let me watch a movie I wasn’t old enough to see yet....and I’m sure not gonna scapegoat the movie for something that family of mine, should of known better.

and yeah, some might not realize about the early exposure later in life and figuring out that it isn’t the mature content that is at fault, there is just some mature content that is meant for a much older and mature audience, and that goes for some live-action movies, cartoon shows, cartoon movies, books, video games and some anime, that wont be for kids, and some humans that keep scapegoating need to understand that, and stop placing the blame on the mature content.

anyway, like I was trying to say before I got off a bit off topic there.

if Transformers: EarthSpark did have it’s rating change to TV-14 or maybe like TV-15, but still keep it clean and not super mature.

it could touch on Aroace or just Ace, maybe the Terrans, could find out about combining, and one of them, might not feel comfortable about it.

like Megatron could sit down and talk with the Terran about it, plus even if the other Terrans might not show a interest in combining, they might not end up feeling as uncomfortable about it as their sibling is feeling about it.

and the one who could be feeling uncomfortable about it, could end up being Hashtag Malto, even if she can take control of like GHOST technology, but what she does with her abilities, will be different from combining with another Cybertronian.

at first, I thought about Nightshade Malto, being the one who’s Ace, but it might be interesting if it turn out to be Hashtag.

in Cybertronian years, the Terrans are possibly Teenagers, even if they are like the “younger siblings” of Robby and Mo.

even if the Terrans have no interest in combining, and don’t have a interest in trying it, the one who might feel really uncomfortable about it, could be Hashtag.

Hashtag might even have to have both Megatron and her Mom, Dot, to go over to her and talk to her about it, and her feelings about being uncomfortable about combining with another Transformer.

Megatron, could explain to her that she doesn’t have to combine with anyone if she doesn’t want to, and if someone asks her to, she will have to firmly tell them no, and that she doesn’t feel comfortable with it.

it might be possible that Hashtag, could also end up not interest in forming a romantic relationship with anyone, but she could still have moments where she has a crushes, but she doesn’t have a interest in combining.

for Humans, being Ace or Aroace, can still be different from how a Gem and Cybertronian is Ace or Aroace, but only some of it is slightly the same, but at the same time not 100% the same.

I think it could be possible that Hashtag might have a small crush on Skywarp.

which, maybe it could turn out that Hashtag could be Sapphic-Ace.

but knowing how some humans are in real life, it might not be openly said in the show.

and yeah, if some humans do have a problem with the whole Terran Cybertronian being Nonbinary, then maybe what will get them to zip it, would be a rating change....they are just a lost cause anyway, well, those who can’t see that their so called claims about what the show has, is what they themselves are doing.

I can’t be the only one, who suspects that what they are claiming, is exactly what they are doing themselves, that they are the ones who are doing some form of corruption, and if they knew anything, they would know that there are romantic identities that doesn’t have to do with....ya know.

of course, it isn’t like they are the only ones who have a problem getting through their heads, both sides seem to not get that there is more to love than just the physical thing.

and yeah, if Optimus and Megatron ended up combining as Megamus, or maybe even Elita and Optimus combining as....whatever name they could go by when fused together....

Hashtag could end up feeling a bit uncomfortable about both, and even the thought about having to do that in the future.

Hashtag could still end up getting a crush, and could possibly end up being Sapphic-Ace, but if she ends up not interested in combining and feels uncomfortable about it, but could end up getting use to others who end up combining but still doesn’t feel comfortable with doing it herself, then her feelings should be respected, same with Peridot’s own feelings about fusion.

also, even if there can be some humans who could end up changing their negative views about Aces and Nonbinary, but for those who don’t and still be stuck in their ways of their view about them, they are possibly a lost cause.

even if they do point out that Nightshade being Nonbinary, is “corrupting” and influencing the children, yeah, try looking in a mirror.

a child can’t be told they are nonbinary, that is something that they should figure out for themselves, and sometimes, it wont be right away or even in their childhood when they figure this out.

but if they don’t feel like they are nonbinary or if they are a boy or girl instead of being like the bio-gender they were born as, then they shouldn’t be forced into it, that is just something they need to discover for themselves, and not be told otherwise by either side.

plus it might be a good idea, that a show or movie, ends up pointing this out.

that some humans who seem to have a problem with Nonbinary, and believe that what some humans believe about Transformers: EarthSpark....

could be told off that they are doing what they are claiming what the show is doing, as well as any of the other stuff.

I guess I’m tired of that, those who seem to have a problem with Nightshade being Nonbinary, are just proving they are not so great.

I hope some get what I’m trying to say, without it being misinterpreted...

still hate it when some stuff I try to say, gets misinterpreted, it’s like when you point out some awesome fan comic, reminds you of one of your other favorite shows, but when you do leave a comment about it, of course your words get misinterpreted...

I don’t want my trying to point out how some of those humans who have a problem with Nightshade, and how they are being is just exactly that they are claiming that the show is being. to be misinterpreted.

small misunderstandings are okay, but there can be some that aren’t okay when it crosses a line where feelings can become hurt.

well, excuse me if I’m a descendant of King David, and King Solomon, who happens to be a Earth Angel Enbirl.

and once again, I’m the only Earth Angel I know of, who is a Nonbinary-Girl.

don’t know if there are others like that, and if there are, I haven’t found much info about others who are like that as well.

right now, I’m listening to “Born Without A Heart” by Faouzia.

there can be different types of music to match a feelings of someone, and even use music to listen to, to be like a comfort, even when there is things and people who tend to make you not so happy and might end up triggering ya.

it might be hopeless trying to get some humans to see reason, so maybe to shut them up, it could be best to just change the rating of Transformers: EarthSpark to like TV-14.....if it stops their disgusting complaining, that would be a relief for everyone who had grown tired of their bull slag.

cause I’m tired of their bull slag, and if changing the rating to TV-14, makes them stop it.....then maybe it will help a lot...and I wonder if some might even wonder why I’m Semi-Misanthrope, of course, it isn’t just some toxic-humans I’m semi-misanthrope of....toxic-masculine angels (both fallen and not fallen) are included.....

anyway reading this post is optional, and I don’t really expect this will be read by very many people, not even that the post that talks about my feelings about still not being happy about that fake news that was about Scott Cawthon, cause once again, I didn’t know it was a freaking prank and fake news until after I had finished that drawing, and yeah I had decided to check it out again after finishing it and then I had decided to click on it during that time, and I found out it was all fake news and in a way, not a funny prank....

I might need to try to edit that post that has that drawing once again, and try to hope some understand the mistake and how I didn’t know that it was a fake news at the time. the best thing I can try to do, is try not to think about it.

and I could try to do stuff to try to take my mind off of some toxic-humans who don’t seem to get what they are claiming about EarthSpark, is EXACTLY what they themselves are doing, and even if they might try to deny it, it doesn’t change the fact that is 100% the truth, and the sooner they finally realize this and accept it, the better.

anyway, hope some can understand and not misunderstand, and fully understand why I am tired of those humans who keep throwing bull slag about their dislike about Nightshade....

and if it does get them to stop, maybe changing the rating to TV-14, can get them to stop half of their complaints about Nightshade and the other stuff.

it is best to work out a compromise, that gets them to stop, and also doesn’t make me and others feel insulted and really mad.

I can’t be the only one who has grown tired of it.

and maybe changing the rating to TV-14, will finally get them to stop, and get them to stop throwing that whole “oh, they are corrupting the children.”......cause once again, that is exactly what you are doing even if you throw that whole anti-nonbinary talk around, because it isn’t the people who are making the show, who end up showing a Nonbinary character like Nightshade.

not sure if anyone else had pointed this out, but if no one has before, then someone had to do it eventually.

plus both sides, can’t just try to force a child to be nonbinary or even if they are a boy (even if they were born a bio-girl) or girl (if they were born a bio-boy), that is just something they need to figure out for themselves.

plus they could have romantic identities that of course, has nothing to do with sexuality, I mean seriously, when we start out as little kids, we end up having a different form of feelings than what can end up showing up later in life.

and little kids, don’t need to have their romantic identities, confused with older teenagers and adults, so both sides should be wise to remember that.

for little kids, they start with just romantic identity until they become older teenagers and adults, and if some end up as Aromantic, then their parents should try to understand and respect that, even if they end up as Aroflux.

as humans do mature, they will end up developing the sexuality part, but it can be different for some humans in this world, and there can be some who do end up becoming asexual.

and yeah, I know when I was a little kid, I’m pretty sure I did have some crushes on fictional characters, though I think most of them might of been on cartoon characters, and even if there was some on real people, it would be in the like romantic identity, and not in the other type of way....

and I hope some get what I’m trying to point out and say, and this doesn’t get misunderstood. but yeah, as little kids, they shouldn’t have to worry about the whole sexuality thing, it might not make sense to some...

little kids are still human beings, and yes it is still important to keep them from viewing things that they might not be the proper age to view and they have to wait until they are older and the right age to view it.

though, with how some older humans are, they will possibly find a way to scapegoat the mature content, instead of placing blame on themselves.

even a Toxic-Karen could possibly find a way to place the blame on a mature content that isn’t for her little boy or girl, but she let them watch it anyway because they asked if they could see it or play it if it is a video game, but instead of telling them “No” and saying to “wait until your the proper age, and the answer is No right now.”.....she lets them view it or play it anyway.

and as soon as that happens, the Toxic-Karen will try to act like it’s not her fault.

anyway, I hope that the new Transformers: EarthSpark episodes start soon, and if changing the rating to TV-14 does stop some toxic-people from their complaining about Nightshade being Nonbinary, then hopefully it can work out and the show can get a few more seasons, without the toxic-human bull slag.

anyway, I think I can try to take my mind off that bull slag, by doing things that make me happy, like listening to music, playing video games, watch shows and movies I like, and even reading.

oh, and also talking about some fan theories, which after I post this up, I’m going to talk about that theory about Kris from Deltarune.

I still don’t like the false claims that some people are throwing about EarthSpark, and if changing the rating to TV-14, finally gets them to stop, then so be it....cause I’m just tired of it, and hopefully things will work out and the show gets a few more seasons.

nonbinary people deserve rights, same goes for Earth Angels who are also Nonbinary, and it is a good thing that video I found had points out about Female Angels and debunk about the whole “there only being male angels”...

also if I believe that there is aliens from space, and not just humans, that is my choice to believe it, but not everyone has to agree with it, but could still question about why would humans be the only sentient humanoid.

I mean yeah, the evolution theory can still be true, as well as being created by a higher being, and yeah for all we know, half of our human ancestors were made from clay and had pop out of rock walls or whatever, while only some other percent were fully organics.

there can be different theories about how humans came to be on this planet, and well one of my theories is that only half of our ancestors are natives to this planet, while the other half of our ancestors are from the Andromeda.

so it is possible the Annunaki are real and had played a part in some stuff that happen in ancient time.

and yeah, I’m weird to believe both the spiritual and science, could be both true.

anyway, I think maybe if I take my mind off of what some toxic-people are saying about EarthSpark, and hope things work out and the people who work on the show can find a way to get those toxic-people to stop it, even if it does mean to change the rating....maybe I and others will be okay, even if I might still not be happy with those who kept throwing their dislike for a nonbinary character in Transformers, and I hate their false claims.

because once again, what they are claiming, is exactly what they themselves are doing, even if they try to point the finger to those who make the show, but it might be hopeless to get some of them to see reason, and I don’t feel like trying to get through to them....

anyway hope some can understand and there is no misunderstandings...

and hope some can understand that I rather there be a compromise that doesn’t get everyone on both sides mad, and if those toxic-people fully get their way, they will only end up hurting and upsetting everyone else.

so it’s best to have a way that makes both sides happy.

also, if I have to explain in another post, that little kids only start out with romantic identities until they reach a mature age, then maybe I will...

cause despite how some older humans are, they are pretty much showing they have no clue about it and don’t get that sexuality is a different type of attraction, and while it can also have a romantic attraction next to it, the sexual attraction happens much later in a human’s life....

I think some humans already know this, and might understand what I’m trying to explain about it, at least I hope some understand...

and well, maybe with any luck, I don’t have to try to explain about it again anytime soon....but maybe with some humans, it is possible it needs to be explained to them, and how they themselves didn’t have their sexuality until they matured....cause no one is just born with the sexuality, they might end up forming romantic identity, but the sexuality ends up coming into play much later.

not everyone has to be attracted to someone in that way, and can love someone for the person that is on the inside and not just of how hot or whatever....sure even finding someone attractive, either it be a real person or fictional character, can be like finding them attractive in a different way, like how I found myself having that small crush on Doctor Deep from Sonic Prime.

even Blitzwing and Lugnut from TFA have their own charms, they are just so adorkable in their own way.

even Tucker from Red Vs Blue, had his cute idiot moments like when he thought he went back in time, which once again, when that happen in the much early seasons, it took me re-watching that a few times I think, to finally figure out and come to the realization, that Tucker from that series, was being a cute idiot.....Tucker, why do you have to be so adorkable. XD

anyway besides hoping there will be a few new seasons of EarthSpark,

I hope that the Terrans can do better than the Eon-Boomers that started that mess on Cybertron. and hope some can understand about my feelings and thoughts about some of the people who keep doing that bad mouthing about Nightshade and the whole Transformers having a Nonbinary character, well two characters, cause it has both a Terran and Human Nonbinary characters in the show. anyway, I’m just gonna post this now, and get to work on writing that theory about Kris Dreemurr from Deltarune....

[ID: Five pictures of a crocheted amigurumi doll of Namine from Kingdom Hearts. The first shows her full body. The second shows a closeup of her face, while the third and fourth show embroidered and crocheted four-pointed stars on the straps of her sandals. The fifth shows her sitting on a bookcase next to matching dolls of Lea and Xion, in their outfits from the ending sequence of Kingdom Hearts 3. End ID]

All right, I like doing full writeups, so even though I detailed a lot of how I made Namine already, I wanted to put it all in one place and include some detail shots I took. I'd decided back at the start of this project somewhere between February 2019 and summer 2020 that I wanted to make a doll of Namine as part of the set, which is why my standard tag is "Twilight Town Amigurumi" instead of something ice cream-related. I didn't think too much about when I would do her - Roxas's difficulty intimidated me, so he'd be towards the end, Xion I knew would be first because she's my absolute favorite (by which I mean, I made her IMMEDIATELY after we finished 3 and planned the rest after,) and Isa would go last because I don't have as strong feelings about him, but Lea and Namine were both sort of nebulous timing-wise.* Well, I ended up doing Lea second, and then I got tendonitis for the next two years and couldn't crochet nearly as much as I had before. But I wanted and fully intended to get back to this project eventually. And finally, last year, the time felt right. Semi-technical details under the cut!

* Sorry to Hayner, Pence, and Olette, but I only have so much space and these dolls take MONTHS to make since I'm doing their patterns from scratch, so I have to feel REALLY strongly about a character or their design to commit to it. Honestly I'm probably going to do some other stuff between Roxas and Isa just for variety.

I completely understand the desire for Namine to have a new outfit that's not a very simple sundress which she's been wearing since 2004, but also, this was very fortunate to me specifically, getting back into the swing of things. Her design is so simple that I could get used to making things again and then decide to get more complex as I went - her sandals, for example, were originally flat, before deciding midway through that no, heels would be doable, and I wanted the challenge. I completed one version of her hair entirely before getting a better idea that I wanted to test out before trying on Roxas and his VERY nice yarn. I knew going in that they'd be the hardest parts - the only question with her dress was how I'd attach it, really - so I let myself do a lot more experimenting as I felt up to it.

Both of those also include a LOT of sewing. For her sandals, for example, the sole of the shoe is actually the base of her foot, with a color change after the first few rounds done in back loops only. Once the legs were done, I added a border around the front loops to cover that they're all one piece, and that ended up being my attachment point for the three straps, each of which had its own yarn ends to weave in at the end. Plus two more for the heel, attached via the same method and surface crochet. And THEN, finally, you get to the stars. The crocheted pair were made with a very small hook and embroidery floss, and then the same embroidery floss was used to make the embroidered stars on the straps.

Her hair's made up of something like eight different sections sewn overtop a circular yellow "cap" sewn to her head. Each of the long sections (the one behind her back and the one over her shoulder) is its own distinct piece, and then the three central strands of her bangs are another, but virtually everything else is a separate piece from the others. It was a lot of work to make and even more to assemble, but I'm glad I did - it looks fantastic, with much more depth and messiness than it would have as a single piece, and I'm going to be using the same strategy for Roxas's spikes not too far down the line. Good to know it works. Also, in the process I picked up half-treble and treble crochet firmly.

I'd noticed some oddities when I was making her body and legs with how many rounds things were taking relative to the old notes I'd taken on the first two dolls, and the shape of Namine's shoulders in particular, but I figured it was a side effect of me taking VERY makeshift notes on Xion (as I hadn't planned on setting the project aside for two years and had only vaguely planned on making other dolls at all) and Lea's proportions being a bit taller and thinner. It wasn't until I tried to make ears, followed the pattern exactly, and realized they didn't look right that I realized what had happened - I'd been making Namine on a 4 mm hook, when the past two dolls were made on a 3.5, and this difference in gauge changed the size and shaping by extension. This made for a little trouble with the dress - what I'd planned for a more rounded body was trickier with the teardrop-shaped body I had. Fortunately, this proved to be a fairly easy adjustment in the end. Were I not telling people on the internet, no one would know that that dress gets wider a few rows in, and then widens again towards the bottom.

The dress is also where one of the coolest ideas I had paid off, and where the only real idea I had for detailing didn't quite work. I'd vaguely been hoping I could do picots to add further scalloping to the shell stitches at the bottom, which didn't work at the scale I was doing given it would be my first time trying picot. In the end, looking at it, it wouldn't have gotten me the proper shape, either, so I skipped that one.

On the other hand, I'd had a couple ideas from the start about how simple that dress is, and wondered if I couldn't attach the main part AFTER I'd sewn her arms on, and then use the straps so I wouldn't have to sew the dress to her. (For those reading a "how the sausage gets made" post who don't crochet, most amigurumi - the others included - have the clothes on the body attached before attaching the arms and any sleeves overtop, rather than having to account for armholes and the like.) What I ended up doing wasn't QUITE the same, but it was very close - I essentially sewed it partway so I could get her into it, since the top is narrower than the lower portion of her body, then sewed her in the rest of the way and the width difference kept the dress on. Then I made the first strap over her shoulder the same way I had for the sandals, crocheted across her back because the back of her dress is higher in-game than the front (look this thing's so simple that even the seam placement is a detail,) and did the same process with the other.

This took an oddly large amount of trial and error, but it was late when I realized I could be done if I could get the straps tonight, and things like "how many stitches will it take to go from the front of her body to her back" are always a little bit guesswork. In short, despite being a simple-loooking design, there's a surprising amount of work that went into this particular doll. But I'm happy with the end result, and realized the scaling issue just in time to account for it in her arm length and ears - while she's still a bit larger than Xion and Lea on the whole, it's not so noticeable that's unintentional.

As is standard for this group, she has a wire skeleton in her legs, arms, and up and down the back of her torso, in an attempt to make her head a bit less floppy with that hair weighing down a pretty flimsy neck. In the end, that's reasonably successful, and she can sit up with her arms pushed back same as the others without being propped up further. (Their heads are just the nature of the beast, especially with hair like that.) She also has eyebrows, though they're hard to see under the bangs, made of two shades of light yellow embroidery floss to approximate her hair color. It looks good, for all that it's a minor detail that doesn't photograph well.

In all, I'm super happy with how she did. Going to finish my first knitting project (I'm currently trying to figure out purl stitch) before moving on to the one they've all been waiting for for quite some time.

The good news is, changing my phone background today for reference material, I officially feel I have Ideas for how I'm going to do Roxas. I'm still going to be nervous doing some of the detailing - it's going to be tricky ensuring those checkerboard patterns show up at the scale I'll be working at - but while he's going to be a VERY intensive project, I now feel pretty ready to take him on. SOON.

guys.... guys............ GUYS HELP WAIT I JUST WAS SCROLLING THRU A BUNCH OF MY TAGS AND I COULDT TELL IF A FANART WAS CASSUNZEL OR REYLO AND I JUST REALIZED THEY'RE A LITTLE BIT TINY BIT KINDA SIMILAR let's pretend school is fun and do a compare and contrast but I am a terrible writer ok so anyway let's go

At a first glance, Cassunzel and Reylo would seem to have nothing in common. One is gay, non-canon, and from a spin-off of a movie made for little girls, while the other is from a movie series whose former primary audience was men and little boys. Former bcs the sequel trilogy is for the girls and the gays I am claiming it

At a SECOND glance, you would see there are actually some similarities. I don't even know where to start bruh.

Source material: Rapunzel is based on a fairytale. I'm pretty sure George Lucas once described Star Wars as a fairytale too (google says yes). What a co-winky-dink?!?!?

The characters:

Guess who! A person who was isolated since childhood not by their own or their parents own choices but because of powers that they were born with due to super old stuff like powers or magical whatever. Their caretaker did not really care about them. They became friends with a little cute thing that doesn't speak english. They have freckles. They're the happier character while also being deeply traumatized. They were brought away from their situation by a dude who was running away from something.

Guess who! A dark-haired angsty type with an evil figure in their lineage. They were affected very badly by the abandonment from their same gender parent. They were taught to be a fighter for protection of people. They are manipulated by a really old evil person who disguises themself. They fight with a sword.

”Okay, plenty of characters are similar. Can you talk in specifics? Plus, what about the character dynamics?"

OK YES BUT FIRST AESTHETICS WHICH IS SHORT BCS ADMITTEDLY THEY AREN'T THAAAT SIMILAR IN THAT WAY

So Kylo in the beginning of the story is red and black as his main colors but he is evil in the beginning. Then, for his very short time being not a baddie, his color is blue!!!

This is literally the exact same and opposite of Cassandra at the same time. Cassandra starts red (ok she wears blue first but that's not rlly her main outfit ) when she is not evil and then becomes blue when she's evil.

"Um, what about when she's green?"

Well you can say that Ben was green when he was being taught by Luke he was in green light that time 💀 so there, exact opposite!

For Rapunzel and Rey, technically they both have brown hair and Rey's lightsaber is yellow. Rey wears beige and blue-ish grey. Blue is basically purple. Also, her outfit has long strips of fabric which you may be able to compare to long hair.

Now, to the promised, Character Dynamics and suspicious similarities, but stay tuned after this for one last secret category of comparisons.

So obviously both of their ships fit into 'Grumpy x Sunshine' and also ngl they're both a little toxic but in different ways. Both pairs physically fight each other.

Kylo gets his face sliced by Rey and has that for a while until she heals it near the end while making him not DIE. Cassandra gets her hand withered and it is not confirmed if it was healed or not but probably it was when Rapunzel was also making her not DIE.

Both of the ships talk as kind of friends at a time while the bad side is still being bad.

THEY BOTH SEE EACH OTHER MAGICALLY WHEN THEY ARE IN COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PLACES AND NO ONE ELSE CAN SEE/HEAR THEM only happens once for cassunzel but STILL!!

Then, they stop acting as friends at all for bit when one closes a door on the other in some way. The difference here is that Rey just closed a door on a force bond while Cassandra actually left Rapunzel to die...

One of them dies and the other holds them while on the floor and brings them back to life using that super old power. The difference is that Ben saves Rey while Rapunzel saves Cassandra and they are the opposite characters in the situation. But, at least at some point it was the angsty ones being dead.

Also, despite their endings being different, each 'grumpy' does basically sacrifice themself for their sunshine partially to make up for their past mistakes/evil-doing and partially bcs THEY LOVE THEMMMM.

Then, the angsty one leaves. The difference is Benny boo fucking dies and Cassandra just goes to find her 'destiny' whatever that means. Though, both of the things have themes of 'destiny' in them, so...

there's totally more similarities so tell me any you think of.

Now to the secret category: Fandom Perception

There was a fandom for both of them early on and they were both easily shippable with scenes that can be seen as having tension or just somehow shippy . Reylo mostly the former and Cassunzel mostly the latter. my fave is "what you do when no one's looking is your business" They also both have some frequently quoted/well-liked shippy moments in their books.

They both have some people in the fandom who dislike or even hate them because there's another ship with a nicer dude that the sunshine character can be with which is deemed healthier.

Both are sometimes claimed to be siblings.

This is so specific. What the fuck.

Oh, there are haters on the villain character who say they are a bad villain and are worse than another villain and then just make fun of them for no reason. The difference is with Cassandra they are just slightly correct while with Kylo they are not really at all because that's just his character and the haters are dudes who love senseless violence... btw both of these characters are my children so I do not condone hating on either of them.

I've never seen people call Rapunzel a Mary Sue BUT I have heard of people who blame Rapunzel for every bad thing which I guess you could say that's slightly similar if you really wanted to idk.

....

there's other similarities I think and even between just different parts of the stories but I've already been writing this post for like 2 hours so if you somehow read all this and you think of anything then totally comment it or say it in a reblog or even message it to me cuz I just want to hear it

anyway if you DID read all this then SHEESH GET A LIFE I mean thank you!! 😄🙏

Inevitable Things: chapter three

aizawa x reader fic

cw: cisfem reader, no quirks, office au, miscommunications, slow burn, sexting, alcohol consumption. full tags available on AO3 (linked in masterlist)

previous chapter | masterlist | next chapter

Hizashi and his (real) wife are exactly the type of people that you want to notice you from across the room. While Hizashi is long and lean, Nemuri is all curves, with a delightfully heart shaped face and wide, thick thighs that you can’t stop yourself from looking at sometimes. Her dark hair is pressed into curls, as deep and as black as her lipstick.

“Do you want a taste?” Nemuri leans in, elbows tucked against her ribcage, pushing her chest up just a bit more. Her dress is sheer enough that you can catch a hint of nipple, dark and pearled up in the cold-

“Uh-?” You rip your eyes away. Two drinks in and you’re already ogling. You’d feel bad about it if the couple didn’t absolutely bask in the attention.

“Of my drink.” Nemuri says, like she knows what she's doing. “Taste my drink.”

“Leave the poor girl alone- Shouta has her all riled up.” Hizashi laughs, wrinkling his nose in delight as he watches the both of you. His cheeks are flushed with alcohol, glasses off kilter one way and smile tilted the opposite. The top five buttons of his business appropriate top are undone, meaning he’s also sporting a bit too much nipple for late afternoon.

“I was just trying to see that pretty smile,” she pouts, with the almost unobtainable balance of sweet and sexy. You’re not sure if she’s really this pretty, or if it's rose colored glasses, tinted by your own jealousy.

You take Nemuri's drink and tip it back, swallowing it faster than your brain can process the flavor. It's gin, maybe absinthe: you just know that it burns. Fighting through your gag reflex, you offer a quick grin, one much less wobbly than it was earlier.

“Aw, there it is!”

Nemuri runs the city’s one and only ‘lifestyle club’: Midnight. From what you've heard, it's a very lux, beautiful venue, filled with torrid amounts of untold debauchery and countless swingers. Technically, the couple started it together- which, now that you’re thinking about it, says a lot about their relationship. They’re the type of couple that’s almost too similar: they're too much, too loud, too nice, too confident.

Most of your friends couldn’t leave work midday on a Thursday, so your ‘birthday bash’ is less exciting than Hizashi had originally planned. That’s fine; you didn’t need more than this.

“Are you feeling better?” Hizashi asks softly. The restaurant is quiet, with only a couple of other tables filled. The three of you had chosen a booth in the very back, hidden away from everyone else who wanted a quiet meal; the waiter seems grateful for that. He’s in the opposite corner, checking his phone and waiting for you to finish your drinks before heading back over. Drinking at 3 in the afternoon isn’t usually your style, but you think you deserve it today. It’s a hat trick: breaking up, turning thirty, and getting screamed at. Maybe a meteor will fall from the sky and really add insult to injury.

“No.” You slump into the booth and the room follows suit. “Aizawa's such an asshole.”

The couple gives you identical looks: tiled heads and pressed lips. Both of them are a bit older than you, 37 and 38, but most of the time you don’t feel the gap. Today, however, you do; you feel like a baby, sucking down fruity drinks while moping about. It’s incredibly childish, but you just can’t stop yourself. You want time to be sad.

“He doesn’t mean to be.” Hizashi starts.

“But he is!” you whine. “I don’t know how you guys are even friends with him.”

“He's different outside of work.” Nemuri says. Shit-talking the man puts them into a strange position, you know that. They have all known each other since college; Aizawa had even gotten Hizashi his current position at the company. It’s strange to think that they are friendly-- let alone close- but you guess they’re both friendly with everyone. “He's a real kitten in real life.”

You try and imagine the guy without a stick up his ass and can’t. What-- is he doing yoga and petting puppies in his free time? As if. All that blue light has rotted his brain.

“He's just crazy stressed. It makes him act like a bone head.” Hizashi reasons with a shrug, forever unflappable. His own drink is almost empty, so he gestures for another. “I'm sure he'll apologize tomorrow.”

The bartender is quick to bring you guys another round. He asks about food, which the couple is quick to order, insisting that everything is their treat. That’s probably a good thing; that half a latte you had for breakfast isn’t doing anything to absorb the alcohol in your system and your stomach is growling. In the meantime, you take the cherry out of your drink and chew on it. You’ll have to savor this drink, just to make sure you don’t get too drunk-

Nemuri leans in conspiratorially. “Was it at least kind of hot?”

“What?”

“Having Shouta scold you.”

What.

“What.”

Hot? Hot?

“What.” you repeat, stressing the vowel.

“He's a handsome guy!” she laughs, throwing her hair over her shoulder. “Deep voice, kind of domineering-- it didn't… turn you on a little bit?”

“And you clearly have a thing for assholes-” Hizashi grins, then yelps, shooting his wife a glare. “Ouch, don't kick me!”

Nevermind. You take a long, long sip of your cocktail until your stomach and vision swirl. You need it.

“And he’s hotter than that idiot you were dating- ‘muri, stop kicking me.”

The only time Touya ever came to your work was for a Christmas party. He was very interested to learn that Hizashi and Nemuri's relationship was open and seemingly forgot that your relationship was, in fact, closed. It's been ages since you forgave him, but Mic still hasn’t moved on.

“Stop saying dumb shit then.” She rolls her eyes, then returns her attention back to you. “He’s right though.”

“Touya is--” Defending him is reflexive. It's not that Touya isn't attractive, it just happens to be in his own way. Maybe other people would see it if he smiled more or pulled out some piercings. Sure. you had never seen yourself with someone as grungy as him, but... “He’s handsome and kinda charming.”

The energy shifts. Hizashi practically leaps across the table, scooping your hands into his, eyes wide with horror.

“Please don’t tell me you’re taking him back,” he begs. Apparently, your face answers for you. because he draws back, horror drawn across his features. “No. No! You're better than this!”

That phrase hits you funny and you remember Aizawa told you the same thing. Better than this-- why does everyone decide that you need better? Why can’t you be okay with… just okay? Mediocrity fits you well.

“Am I?” you say into the glass edge of your drink.

“You're miles out of his league. You deserve someone with a full time job, and a savings, and who doesn't habitually cheat-”

“Hizashi, leave her alone.” Nemuri glances his way and he immediately complies, throwing his hands up in surrender. When she returns her attention to you, her expression is kinder. “Don’t do something you regret just because you’re sad. You just need to get back in the saddle and you'll feel way better.”

“Yeah, once you're back at work, things will smooth out,” Hizashi says.

“Work isn’t the saddle- a dick is the saddle,” she corrects. “You just need a crazy hook up.”

It’s not that you don’t like sex. You think it’s perfectly fine. You’re just not in love with it the same way these two are. The whole experience of it all is so exciting and wonderful in theory, but in practice? It’s more awkward moments than orgasms. It doesn’t help that Touya is the only person you’ve ever slept with, since he’s admittedly selfish in that department.

You realize you’ve been silent for a suspiciously long amount of time. “Oh, well, uh-” you try to come up with an excuse. “I dunno how to date-- I’ve been with Touya for years.”

“Sex isn’t dating.” she insists. “It’s just-- mutual fun and understanding. What’s your type?”

“Dark hair, I guess.” You aren’t really sure. “Are you going to bring me to your club and set me up with someone?”

“No way.” She leans forward on to her elbows again. “It’s a bad environment for a beautiful girl who can't say no.”

You try to imagine yourself being hit on, maybe a man buying you a drink or inviting you on to his lap, and can’t bring yourself to say no. You heave a sigh. “Yeah, I guess you’re right.”

“See? You can’t even argue with me. Midnight is the major leagues-- start with the basics. Do you own a vibe?”

You glance over at Hizashi.

“Pretend I’m not here.” He says, leaning back with a smirk.

“Uh-” You glance between the two, trying to decide how honest you should be. Laughter bubbles out of you that you can’t quite control. “No?”

Both of them look aghast.

“Finish that drink and get your phone out.” Nemuri demands. “You’re buying yourself a birthday present.”

The rest of the night is a bit of a blur. There’s dinner and drinks and a stroll around town, the bits and blurs of laughter and conversation and the back of Hizashi’s car. By the time you’re dropped off at your apartment building, you’re wobbling on your heels and pleading for the world to stay still. Overindulging isn’t usually your speed, but it’s certainly fun.

Your key barely makes it into your lock and you stumble in, laughing at the way your oven’s clock flashes at you. 8:00: in college you could have been out all night, but now you’re ready for bed before the good television shows come on.

The bed is still made from this morning, sheets untouched and pillows unsquished.

You don't want to sleep alone.

The bathroom calls your name. You're supposed to be washing your face, but you can't rip yourself away from your phone long enough to bother.

You don't want to sleep alone.

Nemuri was right, you just need to get under someone and you'll feel better. You’re itching for it, needy for touch, desperate for the validation that love affords you. Midnight will be open soon and its only a train ride away, but you aren’t a member and Nemuri made it clear you wouldn’t be getting an exception. You could download a dating app and scroll, but the idea of a stranger entering your life and home feels wrong. It’d be easier to stay with something familiar… someone you know..

AVOID AT ALL COST sits at the top of your contacts, mocking you in all capital letters. Touya. The man who won’t even read your texts. At this point, crawling back to his is ugly and pathetic, but your drunk brain keeps looping back to the idea of sex and love and touch and-

You close your eyes for deniability, then click.

i wish you were here<-

iwnt you so bad right now<-

You cringe at the typo, regret sitting heavy in your belly. Read sits heavy at the corner of the screen, taunting you with your mistake-

Your drunk brain catches up. Read? He… read it? Typing bubbles appear, then disappear. Then, they pop up again, typing for an uncomfortably long time. Despite yourself, you get excited, rolling on the balls of your feet and bouncing. Touya is answering you. When you’re starved for affection, even the smallest bits feel like full meals, both saiating you and wetting your mouth for more.

->Are you sure you're texting the right person?

->I thought you hated me.

You lean against your bathroom sink to steady your hands, giggling and twitting about.

I wish i hated you lol <-

but i just want you so bad <-

You lean against the sink, watching the little "seen" pop up under your messages. When the typing bubbles don’t immediately appear, you send off another.

id let you have me <-

any way you want me <-

You almost stop there, but then you catch your own eye in the mirror. Your outfit is a bit disheveled, your makeup is more than a bit smeared, but you look… good. Just fucked and ready for more. Your dress isn’t low cut enough to be inappropriate for work, but you manage to shimmy it lower, hem pressed just below the curve the lacy edge of your bra. It’s nothing new to him, but it still feels dirty, illicit enough to steal your breath away.

The response is instant.

->God. How are you so…

->Don't tease me if you don't mean it.

Oh, you’ll tease him alright. You’re going to tempt this man away from wherever he is and back into your bed. You pull your skirt up this time, hiking it all of the way up your thighs until just a hint of your skin toned undies are on display. With the camera just slightly out of focus, it really looks like you've shown him a sliver of cunt.

->Fuck.

->You're right. I want you.

->I’ve always wanted you.

You giddily skip to your room, tossing yourself on your bed. You should really shower first, but your body is hot and primed; your hand is already sliding down, the heel of your palm grinding against your needy core. You need something to touch you, you need the friction of someone else. There’s a vibrator in your amazon cart, but you can’t wait for 2 day shipping.

For now, the edge of a pillow will have to do. You bunch it below you and rock your hips, searching for that perfect angle that will-

More texts come through.

->I've always thought about fucking you against your desk after everyone else has left. Those stupid slippers over my shoulders. Your lips on mine.

-> I know you taste sweet. All over.

A shiver turns through you. Yes, you need to be tasted, you need his teeth in your neck and his spit on your tits-

are you jacking off right now? <-

There’s a gap. Maybe you've pressed too far.

->Yes.

I wish my hands were as soft as yours.

lemme see <-

You expect the messages to dry up there. Touya likes the chase, not the follow through. You put your phone down and shift your weight more, trying to focus on rolling your hips just right. A pressure is building inside you, one that’s warm and fuzzy and rolling into your chest and down into your cunt. Your eyes close and you chase that high.

A message comes through.

A video message.

You scramble to press play, hips rolling against your pillow on their own, searching for friction.

A barely there moan hits you first.

The video is dark and grainy, but you can make out the shape of his cock, heavy against his thick thigh. His pubes have grown out, a dark patch of hair that trails up his soft stomach and out of frame. You can see every breath he pulls, stomach constricting and expanding. The hand that isn't holding the camera is looped around the base of his cock, squeezing gently before slowly stroking the length. His fingers are slick with lube or precum and they glide over his length, earning you another growl of a moan.

Chills run through your body. Fuck. Holy fuck. He must really miss you. He's throbbing for you and you swear he's bigger than ever. It must be the angle and your drunk mind, but he looks huge.

never shave ever again ok I love how manly it looks <-

and fuck your voice is so hot I almost came from that alone <-

->Are you touching yourself?

yes<-

->Show me.

Embarrassment suddenly hits you. Touya always told you that men were visual creatures and rutting against a pillow like an animal isn’t the ‘porn pretty’ pictures he expects. Usually, you’d comply and pose how you know he likes it, but the room is off kilter and your body is heavy. Besides, Nemuri and Hizashi were right-- an orgasm would fix you. You need to keep going right now or else your stomach’s going to cramp.

i’m embarrassed <-

It’s mostly the truth. You would understand if he stopped texting you after that, but a response comes quickly.

That’s okay. <-

Tell me about it? <-

Your heart thumps. Then, again. That shouldn’t be hot.

->i'm humping my pillow and wishing it was you

My leg or my cock? <-

Fuck. When did he get good at this?

->whatever you'll give me

Ride my thigh and we'll see what you deserve.<-

God, it's just words, but you feel electric. When did he get good at this? The heat in your core feels like it's going to consume your whole body and you can't help but to continue to stroke it; you squeeze your thighs and tilt your hips over and over again, thinking about that wide thigh and his manly, big hands. God, you should be texting back, but you're just-- just--

Your orgasm hits you way quicker than usual. It's one that hits you all at once, straightening your back and stealing your breath and just tickling every inch of your core. It's all consuming and followed by the creamy feeling bliss that you so desperately needed. As you flop forward and sink into your mattress, sleep nipping at your heels, you gather yourself enough to send one final picture.

You collect your cum in your fingers and scissor them back and forth, letting the wetness web in between. When you lift your hand, it catches in the overhead light, clear and lovely and all for him. The photo you take is a bit out of focus, exhaustion settling into your bones, but it’s very clear when you’re showing.

-> next time you make me cum ebtter be in person

The next morning you wake up to a pounding headache and fuzzy teeth, but your body feels good. There’s something looser, lighter, inside you, like you’ve relaxed for the first time in forever. You can’t even bring yourself to care that your phone is dead or that you’re running a bit late to work. It’s awful to admit, but Nemuri was right- an orgasm really did fix you. Maybe that’s why the two of them are always so chipper; they’re definitely fucking like rabbits.

You plug in your phone and get ready for the day. Three ibuprofen and a shower mostly fix your headache and a very thorough brushing fixes everything else. Your toothbrush still sits next to Touya’s, seemingly the only thing in the apartment he forgot to take, but today that doesn’t fill you with dread. Things, finally, are good again. Pretty words have soothed all of your wounds and you’re just waiting for him to come back home to you.

It’s all you can think about as you get dressed. You slip into something black-- Touya’s favorite-- and put on those special red heels again, even though your instep is rubbed raw.

You're almost out the door when you remember your phone. You scramble back to your bedroom and start it up as you head out the door. The screen boots up and messages start inching their way in. A couple from friends, apps, and-

Hm. That’s.

A name that you don’t expect pops up. Aizawa Shouta sits at the top of your direct messages, five messages sent through. Yesterday, you’d probably think you were losing your job or the world was ending, but today you can take it in stride. Hizashi was right; the man is already trying to apologize! You open the message and smugly prepare for the groveling-

-> I bet you looked so pretty when you came.
