For the trope mashup thing whatever: arranged marriage and neighbors 👀 - CX
again not one i would've picked but thank you for prompting it !! this also uh, got longer than i thought.
(from the prompts mash up - still taking submissions)

“What do you mean your visa’s running out?” Lando asks.
“I’m Australian. Not a magician. Commonwealth only gets you so far.” 
“I thought you were here on a scholarship.”
“Well. Yeah. But scholarships stop. Once you graduate.” 
Lando toes the doorway rug. It feels weird to be talking about this in the middle of the hallway, though the only other person who would be listening might be Mrs. Kapoor, and half the time it’s only because she sticks her head out to ask if Lando or Oscar would take one of her mystery vegan curries. Lando is neither a huge fan of vegan food nor curry, and he trusts Oscar’s word for it that it’s good because they eat it while playing Gran Turismo at Lando’s place. But Lando always accepts the curries nonetheless, because his parents raised him to be polite, and he wasn’t raised in a barn. (Even if he technically grew up in converted farmhouse in the countryside, but that was besides the point.)  Either way, this is slipping away from him much quicker than he’d anticipated. Late night hangouts, dropping mail and post-it notes, text messages about the community garden. The most inane smalltalk about things big and small from the origins of moths to whether aliens were out there or just chose to ignore the +44 area code. Oscar always laughing in the right places when Lando regales him about tales of his terrible online dating stories, Oscar always picking the pickles out of the roast beef bagels before he passes one to Lando. The corner of Lando’s sofa that Lando has started to think of as Oscar’s because he’s there so often, reading one of his books or trying to speedread a JSTOR article about the lifecycle of urban pathogens while Lando worked on artwork for his upcoming store launch. 
Lando’s synapses are firing too fast. His brain did that most days, and that was what made him exceedingly good at his job, and today in particular - it doesn’t feel like there’s any logical way out. 
Lando remembers that movie they watched once though. As a joke. The one they both pretended not to enjoy, with Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds in Alaska. The one they watched when Oscar sat next to Lando on the sofa, and they both pretended the entire night that their knees weren’t touching. 
His therapist said he had a tendency to get ahead of himself when under stress. But it’s a joke, it’s not serious, there’s no way—
“We could just like, get married.”
Lando shoves his hands in his pockets. That came out way more calm and cooler than he thought it actually would.  And to his credit, Oscar doesn’t drop his mug of tea. Lando knows that’s his favourite one, because Lando got it for him, and it says Science is my superpower. Oscar does, however, slightly shift his grip on the mug.
“I feel like it’d be complicated to explain to my mum why I randomly married my upstairs neighbour?” 
“But it’s not a no.”
Oscar tilts his head. There’s a glimmer of something focused, maybe even hungry in his eyes. Oscar gets like that when his mind turns, when he’s working on an especially difficult thesis, when the pieces are forming and he can lock into the crucial details.
Lando is a little alarmed at how much he already recognises it, and how much more often he’d like to draw that reaction out. 
“If the facts don’t fit the theory, then reexamine the facts. Right?” Oscar says.
And Lando is there, in the doorway. Conscious that Mrs Kapoor might’ve heard everything, but all the more conscious that there’s a hammering in his heart that he can’t tell is nervousness, or anticipation. 
What’s the stress limit for a joke you’re probably already pushing too far? Lando thinks.
He isn’t sure.
But maybe it’s a thesis worth testing out.  
-------------
(and ok maybe i cheated a little on arranged marriage but i think this is the closest i could get with the contemporary context. thank you @cx-boxbox for the prompt <3)

✰ stray kids as uni bfs!
warnings: mentions of food, too much boyfriend material, cause of death: uni!seungmin, inconsistent use of correct spelling
welcome to my first post! <3
-✰bang chan
uni!bangchan definitely… struggles :’) he stays awake till 2-3am every night, either doing homework or procrastinating and making music. thank god his roommate basically lives with their partner, because u get to stay in his dorm with him during these early mornings, urging him to stay on task so he can sleep.
u guys met at the gym!!! u were trying to get back into exercising after the spring break and he saw u on the treadmill. literally hearts in his eyes. like the shy guy he is, he waited until u were almost out of the door before asking “do u go to the uni around here?”
let’s just say he was giggling and kicking his feet when u offered ur number to him <3
bang chan credits u for every completed assignment! he loves that u are so willing to help him, even if he is embarrassed to ask sometimes. (it goes like, “babe.. ugh i’m so sorry but what the fuck does he mean by this?”)
he will get u breakfast from the campus cafe before all of ur morning classes. he says it’s his job as a boyfriend, even if he only got four hours of sleep! (one time he slept in and got u lunch AND dinner to make up for it)
-✰lee know
lee know is an interesting student to say the least. his electives are all “art 101” and “basket weaving” because those are the ‘easy’ classes (sadly, no college class is easy) though, surprisingly, he is very interested in his major classes! studious student.
his go-to look is glasses with a comfy hoodie and sweatpants. when u see him on campus u can’t help but stare. comfy bf material.
u guys always seemed to cross paths at the off campus grocery store! u happen to be picking up comfort snacks after crying ur eyes out due to stress :( he strolled down the same aisle as u, quickly recognizing the university hoodie u had on, staring longingly at what oreo flavor to choose with fresh tears in ur eyes.
“i like the java chip ones :)” after he saw ur tears, he bought them for u.
ur dates consist of: trudging along campus to classes together, movie nights with snacks in the oh so comfy twin sized dorm bed, and grocery store runs! he also loves to do sheet masks together! (just don’t tell anyone how soft he is for u)
studies come second to him. u come first <3
-✰changbin
a jock but not in the aggressive type way. he just wants to lift and pass his classes. (which he always does! nothing below a B- for binnie)
he is good with in-class work! whipping out assignments while the teacher is talking about the subject is light work for him. but homework… alone in his dorm…. his kryptonite. for some reason focusing is so hard in that situation!
when u first heard him speak in economics class, u didn’t expect him to be so sweet?? u sat a couple rows back, so good thing he couldn’t see ur constant staring. his smile, his biceps, his too-tight shirts, his everything.
group projects are ur guys’ weakness because you somehow always get put together. (not that u mind!) in ur third group project this semester, he bit the bullet and asked u out! he was so nervous that he made a whole google slide saying “will u go out with me?” he asked han to decorate it lol.
studying together is no easy task. ur talking about currency then suddenly in a sweet make out sesh! he said he couldn’t handle the “sweet” looks u were giving him.
really soft boyfie !
-✰hyunjin
my art student. what else would he major in?
you guys actually met in starbucks on campus! hyunjin tries to do essays in a cafe setting to “stay focused” (he really just wants to be aesthetic).
you work as a barista, and after taking his order, he couldn’t take his eyes off of u for the 2 hours he was there. he ended up sketching u instead of write his essay! shockingly, he was able to muster up the courage to at least ask ur major before he left (aka, rushed out and ran into the door).
you guys are the sickly sweet couple everyone sees on campus. u are always together!!! hyunjin wants nothing to separate ur hand from his >:(
of course, when he has freedom to choose for his big projects in his art classes, he always chooses something that reminds him of you. he doesn’t like painting portraits that much, so he will choose to paint ur favorite flowers, your first date scene, your hand holding his… yeah, he’s that type of boyfriend :’)
he despises his required classes, like english and math. he doesn’t understand it like he understands art, so he needs ur support!! please run ur fingers thru his hair when he’s whining about his weekly reading!
he loves ur relationship more than anything <3 he’s so happy he can spend his college years with u
-✰han
oh boy. how do we even start this.
i think he tries his best. he really does! he doesn’t want to be one of the few in his class failing, but he just doesn’t really grip onto learning the required subjects like english.
this is how u two met! u work for the university as a tutor, and han was required tutoring for english or else he would get dropped from the class :( he showed up to the tutoring session in an empty lobby in the main campus building, and as soon as he laid eyes on u, he cursed himself. he was supposed to be learning, how can he do that when he has the prettiest person in front of him!! :’(
even outside of ur sessions u help him all the time! he appreciates ur help so much, and of course he doesn’t want his partner to have to help him with his work 24/7, but u don’t mind at all.
his schedule is chaotic. wake up, go to class, go by the convenience store to get both of u snacks, come back to UR dorm, nap in UR bed, wake up when u get back from classes, walk around campus together, get dinner in the dining hall, then fall asleep at HIS dorm.
he always praises himself for choosing to live in a quad with his own room and praises u for working for the university so u get ur own dorm. “it’s like we knew we were going to date!”
he always shows his love and appreciation. power college couple <3
-✰felix
felix has the time of his life in college. he loves being independent, doing something new, and just taking it all in.
that’s why he decided to be ambitious his freshman year; getting a job right away at the campus cafe, and also continuing his hobby of dance by taking a freestyle dance elective!
u were also taking the elective class to try and get more in to ur passion for dance. u never felt too confident in ur skills, so what better way to improve than in a class with others that were learning too!
when felix walked in the room the first day of class, looking all professional in his beanie, oversized sweatpants and a plain t-shirt, u were immediately attracted… but also intimidated!! he must be so good (>:d) u guys actually got put as partners for ice breakers, then a partner project, then a mid-term project, realizing how genuine and sweet he is!!
let’s just say,, things got a lil close for ur projects. flirting was a given around him and kissing, definitely happened.
and even though his excitement for college was a 100! his grades… struggled to reflect that :( like others, college is hard to grasp sometimes!! u continued to help him and remind him that everyone is having a hard time too <3
another sickly sweet couple. he just can’t pry himself away from u!
-✰seungmin
i kinda feel like seungmin is like,, the perfect fit for uni boyfriend? he just gives off those vibes to me so much. (yes i am seungmin biased haha)
does he have all 100% in his classes? yes! does he procrastinate? hell yes…..that’s all he does. to try and help his problem, he wants to study with u! he thinks that this will help him focus more bc silence is always comfortable between u two. but it just ends up him playing some game and u watching, messing him up every time he’s close to passing the level.
if you guys have an in-person class together, he wants needs to sit by u. he doesn’t find it right that u don’t want to sit next to ur own boyfriend. how dare u actually want to listen to ur professor instead of engage in snarky side conversation the whole time >:(
he loves walking around campus late at night. not like, 2am but more like 10pm lol (cuz besides staying up for hw, i feel seungmin is an avid sleeper). after ur night class, he will meet u by ur dorm building and walk around, hands linked the whole time. this is the time where he’s affectionate and loves to talk about ur relationship aww!! it’s conversation like “i remember the first time i held ur hand”, and “we should have another takeout homework date in the library soon”.
i could literally go on and on about uni!seungmin bc it’s a perfect match ahh.
-✰i.n
high school classmates to college classmates! it might have been handy to know someone going into college…. if u and jeongin even knew who each other were.
“yang jeongin? he was in my homeroom? uhh-“
i.n thought that he didn’t need help going thru his first year. he wanted to be independent and make friends on his own >:( butttt with each passing day, adjusting to new classes and even his roommate moving out, he couldn’t even manage to talk to someone new for more than a minute.
u finally recognized him when u saw his academy hoodie he was wearing one day! u rushed to reach him before he entered the classroom, and when u two made eye contact… god jeongin thought the world stopped.
from then, u guys slowly started seeing each other more, than exchanging numbers, then hanging out! ur hangouts usually consisted of studying, but it always ended up in doing to the dining hall and eating together, staying in their right until it closed.
let’s just say, u both struggled in the homework department. but quizzes?? yang jeongin is, surprisingly, an academic weapon.
he loves quality time with u. staying up late, just being in each other arms and talking about nothing.
he will also most definitely require u to watch old minecraft videos with him. quality time right! :)
masterlist!

a noble runs into MC and the nobody devil while they’re on a date and MC introduces them to each other when confronted…
didn’t mean to annoy you by being clumsy and sending 3 asks in a row. apologies🤦
It'a fine, pussy, my imbox is empty, so there's no tragedy in giving the same request multiple times. For my sake, I'll just name the demon Marian, but you can imagine anything else instead.
Whb nobles seeing MC with another devil
Zagan
He was just going on his morning jog when he spotted you and Marian
Everyone in Gehenna knows everyone else in Gehenna, so don't be surprised that they know eachother.
Zagan would be kind of shy when getting closer to you and nod at the two of you
"Oh, hi Zagan! This is Marian, my boyfriend."
His face doesn't change much but you can tell that the realisation struck him
He shakes Marian's hand and leaves.
You should be thankful it was him that found you two and not someone more... aggressive
Astaroth
He's stuck
On one hand, this is such an amazing love story plot.
The child of Solomon, the human that could have them all settles with a nobody.
They are everything and he's just Marian
The drama, the romance, the tragedy that could spur out of something like this
He's all for it
But on the other hand, really?
You have all the kings drooling after you, all the nobles lining up to make a carpet out of their bodies so you won't have to step on dirt, and you choose... Marian?
Humans trully are fascinating creatures
He doesn't say anything when he sees the two of you, just hiding behind a corner and observing. He's really invested now, be ready to find his newly published novel about a queen falling for a layman on your nightstand
Bimet
He audibly gasps
He is revolted, he is insulted, he is disgusted
How fucking dare you
He doesn't know who that demon is, nor does he care
He would power walk between you two and look only into your eyes.
"MC, I didn't think I would find you! Who's the accessory you have with you? What's his purpose and when will he expire?"
"That's my boyfriend Marian."
"Hahaha, you're soooo funny! You're already dating Mammon. Do you really need something as... insignificant as this devil?"
You start arguing with Bimet until he just picks Marian up and takes you to the royal quert.
When Mammon gives the verdict that you can date anyone you want, Bimet's entire attitute changes.
He congratulates you for finding such a handsome devil and wishes you both ferwell.
Glasylabolas
Oh ho ho ho, now this, this is interesting
He's gonna have the time of his life with this one
First, he takes pictures of you two on the date, holding hands, hugging, any physical contact works
Then he makes his presence known
He's a lot more cheerful than usual and he eggs both of you on.
He acts like you two being together was his OTP all along, talking about how you two are just made for eachother
"Oh, but MC, why haven't you told his majesty Leviathan about your blooming relationship with this young fella? Should I do the honorifics myself?"
He doesn't wait for an answer, he just summons his coffin and teleports to Leviathan's throne room to tell him the gossip.
Seeing you and your boyfriend hanging put a smile on his face
Next time, try not to get caught
Stolas
He just shoots the guy
No warning, no anything
He doesn't want to hear your complaints
A vermin was touching the child of Solomon in a romantic manner
Avisos' one law is to not steal someone else's partner
And you're clearly dating Beelzebub, so Stolas was just enforcing the law
You had to rush your boyfriend to Paradise Lost to get treatment, but Stolas won't apologise
You have to explain to him step by step that 1. You're not dating Beelzebub and 2. You chose to date Marian because you genuinly love him
It takes him a while to process, and he still has doupts, but he'll pay for the treatment of your boyfriend
Ronové
You don't see or hear him coming, you just feel his arms snake around your neck
He congratules you for getting a boyfriend and shakes the devils hand.
He's actually very chill about the whole ordeal, but he seems weirdly fascinated about the other demon's sex life
He really doesn't want the child of Solomon to get sexually frustrated
He would offer to show him how its done, but you slapped Ronové before you could finish
He just chuckles and hands the devil a business card
Before he leaves, he whispers in your ear "if he doesn't treat you well, chop his dick off. Or better, ask me to do it."
Andrealphus
At least it's not an angel
When Andrealphus walk closer to the two of you, your date starts shaking in fear
Andrealphus just smiles and hugs you since he hasn't seen you in a while (insert blind joke here)
He smiles at your date, which doesn't help make him look less intimidating
As long as that devil doesn't pose a threat to you, he's fine with letting you date whoever you want
Your date might faint after Andrealphus leaves, but you both are glad that nobody got murdered.
Buer
He's confused and a bit offended
I mean, Lucifer is right there
It kind of reminds him of that story Lucifer once told him about his younger self. How he fell in love with a human princess but the princess chose some random dude instead of him and he got depressed.
He doesn't want that to happen again so he probably would move you and your new sweetheart to different sides of the hospital
If you try to comfront him about it he's just like "You are under my care and he's under Marbas' care, there's no reason for him to be in the same wing as you"
He wants to break you two off, but not directly. So he just hopes that the physical distance between you and your boyfriend would make the relationship deteriorate by itself.
Would probably stop only if Lucifer tells him to knock it off

Dominating/ Pegging AOT men pt. 1 (Reiner & Zeke)
Tumblr media
A/N: another request from my stoned thot anon, blessing us all with their request ideas. WE FUCKING MEN IN THE ASS ALL 2023!!!
TW: mommy kink for Reiner, Power bottom meanie Zeke, and your usual freaky shit, 18+
Tumblr media
REINER
Bye, why wouldn't the king of mommy kink allow you to dom and peg him!?!?!? If anything, HE'S the one who introduced the idea of you being something like a dominatrix for him and you were more than happy to comply. It fits the natural dynamic of your relationship too well.
The very first night the two of you incorporated it in the bedroom he was a moaning pink flustered mess underneath you and you were so wet that the strap kept shifting out of place. From then on the two of you knew it was going to be a staple in the bedroom.
He thoroughly enjoys allowing you to have access to him in such a vulnerable way and how good you make him feel.
"Thank you so much mommy for fucking me so good, you make me feel so good", "No one else could ever make me feel as good as you do, mommy. No one.", "You fuck and treat me so well, I can't wait until it's my turn to put my cock in you and make you feel just as good."
He looks absolutely angelic during all this nasty dirty talk; eyes doe and slightly teary, cheeks rosy and tear-stained, and gazing up at you with nothing but pure adoration.
You two indulge in all types of gadgets and positions to keep things spicy and not boring. Both of you guys' favorite position is missionary. There's something about you being able to see Reiner's face contort with pleasure while you're deep into him and stroking his cock that stirs up something feral in you. And he enjoys watching you just as much.
This man's stamina is like a horse's. As soon as you're done fucking him and making sure he reaches his climax, he's on you like bees on honey. He wastes no time in pounding you with his cock even if he was satisfied from the night already, your pleasure is equally as important to him and he won't stop until he's sure that you're just as satisfied as him. Even if he is tired.
His favorite way to thank you is by letting you sit on his face and use his tongue as you please. He'll lift you on his face right after you're done fucking him, it's his favorite to wiggle his tongue through the straps of the strap-on and find your sweet swollen clit to suck on like a pacifier.
Best believe the aftercare is A1 too. The best pillow talk and cuddling sessions to exist in history.
Tumblr media
ZEKE
Zeke won’t let you full-on peg him, but I can see him being into less intense butt stuff like rimming or even letting you put a finger or two up there for added sensation but that's as far as that goes for him.
BUT, He does like giving you control in the bedroom every now and then because it's amusing to him that you think you can even do that.
P O W E R BOTTOM THROUGH AND TRUE. This man is a verbal sadistic
"You really think you can fuck me better than I can fuck you", "So cute seeing those dainty fingers try and work my hole when you can barely get them to wrap around my cock", "I could flip you over right now and have you under me faster than you can get a moan out."
Nights when he allows you to take control always end up being the most frustrating ones because he's cocky as hell and doesn't shut up. His comebacks are too quick and witty for you to think of faster ones as a baby dom, but you're getting there. All this egging on and torment is really just to turn you into his perfect dom. He wants you to mean it when you tell him to shut up and make you cum 3 times in a row or he won't come at all. It's your aggressiveness and frustration with him that really turns him on.
The more comfortable you two get with this arrangement the more you find out how crazy humiliation makes him. One night you said something along the lines of, "No wonder you won't let me peg you; this pathetic hole couldn't take a fake cock even if it wanted to." THE MAN WAS TOO STUNNED TO SPEAK BUT WHEW ! I don't think he even knew that he enjoyed humiliation that much and you knew he loved it from the way his cheeks turned the same color as the tip of his cock and not to mention the precum that was flowing down his shaft like a river.
Your rim jobs have a tranquilizing effect on him and he requests one almost every time he gets oral from you. Feeling the hot warm muscle that is your tongue poke and prod at the most sensitive and fleshy part of his body leaves him gripping the edge of the bed until his knuckles turn white.
It's your favorite sight; Him with his mouth slightly agape, chest vibrating with groans, and his t-shirt slightly pushed up farther on his abdomen revealing the muted gold happy trail leading to his dick. And you being the demon that you are, of course you add in a handjob that has him shooting strings of cum on his stomach when he reaches his climax.

Reminders of her - George Karim x gn!reader
requested by anon: George Karim x reader (established relationship) where one of the Visitors they have to seal is the reader’s dead mom or sister or father (whichever you want)
I am so so sorry that this has taken me forever to write, I have been swamped with assignments and work and then a period of no imagination whatsoever, so I'm very sorry about that anon! I also had no clue how to end it so sorry about that too
I tried to make this gn (since no gender was specified), but there may be a slip up or two so I'm sorry if there is <3
Hopefully this is roughly what you wanted anon!
Word count: 1.7k
Warnings: mentions of character death (reader's mother) and dealing with grief, mentions of cancer (non-specific, but it's not aggressive).
Tag list: idk who wants to be tagged for George tbh (let me know if you do!) <3
(not my gif)
Tumblr media
The inhabitants of 35 Portland Row were all relaxing in their various rooms when the doorbell sounded, startling everyone.
Lockwood hurried to the door, trying his best to not look too disgruntled in front of a possible client, but when he pulled the door open to see Y/n he gave up trying to rub the tea stain off the bottom of his shirt.
"Oh, hi. Everything alright?" They didn't say anything, head dipped so that Lockwood couldn't see their face, but when he heard the slight sniffles coming from Y/n he ushered them inside, immediately calling for George. Lockwood wasn't the best at dealing with people crying, and he'd had to learn for his job, but given Y/n was George's partner he figured he had a free pass this time. The boy in question came thundering down the stairs barely a minute later, pulling his jeans all the way up as he did so and fastening his belt before bringing Y/n into a crushing hug. Lucy appeared at the top of the stairs, peering at the scene in front of her, and when she saw her best friend crying she hurried into the kitchen to start making tea. Lockwood was left to stand awkwardly to the side, hands stuffed in his pockets while George comforted his partner.
"What's wrong, Y/n/n?" George asked, pulling back slightly to wipe away their tears. They sniffled a little bit, small sobs still breaking through as their chest heaved, trying to get the words out.
"It's- it's my mum," they broke off into tears again, hiding their face in George's t-shirt. "She- she's, uh... I need your help," they finished in a whisper, turning to look at Lockwood, and suddenly everything made sense.
"Where is she?" Lockwood asked softly, making eye contact with George. The two boys led Y/n into the kitchen, sitting them down at the table and providing a plate of biscuits (George was a compete hypocrite about the biscuit rule when it came to his partner). Lucy brought over a cup of tea, placing it down in front of Y/n with a small smile.
"Sort of just... everywhere. In the whole house. I don't know why she's only just turning up now, she's been dead for eight months."
"It doesn't always make sense," George said, pushing his glasses up. "We can come over tonight if you like, right Lockwood?"
The company head nodded, sympathetic smile on his face when Y/n looked his way, and Lucy murmured her agreement.
"That's decided then. We'll come over tonight and try and put her to rest completely, yeah?" Lockwood declared, and Y/n nodded, wiping the last of their tears away.
"Yeah, alright. Thank you."
~~~
That night, just before sunset, the four of them headed over to Y/n's house (the members of Lockwood and Co had refused to let them go back, insisting that they stayed until they were properly cheered up), kit bags slung over shoulders and rapiers at their hips. Y/n went without, having barely any Talent, clutching the silver rod that George had gifted them as a defence. Lucy and Lockwood strode ahead, George hanging back with Y/n as they dawdled.
"You alright?"
"I don't really know. I mean, she died of cancer, so that shouldn't really mean that she comes back as a Visitor, right? She died in her sleep, peacefully, and spent her last couple of months seemingly happy."
George was quiet for a while, debating what to say. He often had a habit of putting his foot in it, being the socially awkward person that he was, and dating Y/n had meant that he'd found himself thinking before he spoke much more. At first, he'd barely spoken to them when it was just the two of them, being too scared that he'd say something wrong and never see them again, but when they'd admitted that his blunt attitude was one of the things they most adored about him, he'd opened up more. Still, in situations like this a little thinking was required, especially since his partner's dead mother coming back as a ghost was the topic of conversation.
"Generally, Visitors seem to come back for unfinished business. Maybe she just wants to say good bye?"
"She had months for that though." Y/n was worrying their bottom lip in their teeth, a habit that had become more frequent since their mother's death.
"I really don't know, Y/n/n. Once we're there, though, I'm sure I will," he said, offering a small smile as they turned down their street. Y/n tried a smile of their own, but the worry was still there, growing with every step closer to their house the agents got.
"Come on you two, we're losing time!" Lockwood called, and George rolled his eyes.
"Ignore him. Those two can do without us for a bit if they need to. You alright? You're looking a bit pale."
"I- I'm fine, Georgie. I'm just... not really looking forward to this."
"I get it. Hey," he called, brushing his hand against Y/n's. "We'll sort it, yeah?" He linked their hands, and Y/n smiled properly, the action lighting up their face.
"Yeah. Thank you, George," they replied earnestly, planting a kiss on his cheek.
~~~
Y/n was worried.
It had been an hour since Lockwood, Lucy and George had set up, and while Y/n stayed in the kitchen, surrounded by the defences and armed with the silver that George had handed over earlier ("Just in case," he'd said, no hint of humour in his expression), the three agents had been eerily silent. They'd heard the creak of an occasional floorboard, and a whisper of voices from the living, but aside from that anybody observing the situation would think that Y/n was alone in the house.
They had zoned out a few minutes ago, getting bored of standing and waiting with nothing to do, when suddenly a figure appeared in the doorway.
"Mum?"
Their voice was shaking, damn it. Y/n had promised that they wouldn't get too scared, but the possibility of seeing their mother (and the further chance that their mother would try and attack them) was terrifying.
The figure crept closer, glowing faintly, and Y/n held their breath. It stopped just inside the doorway, and distantly Y/n heard themselves calling for George. Everything else was a haze. Time seemed to stop as the two of them observed each other, and while Y/n could feel a chill creeping up, the warmth they felt at seeing their mother's face again made it seem insubstantial. The trance was broken when Y/n was shoved to the floor, George landing on top as Lockwood and Lucy fought back against the now violent ghost of Y/n's mother.
"Are you alright? Y/n? Y/N?"
"Stop shouting! I'm fine," they huffed, unsure why George seemed so panicked.
"You were very nearly permanently ghost-locked, idiot!" Y/n's eyes widened.
"W-what? But I was fine! I didn't- I didn't think I was there for that long, was I?"
"Maybe, maybe not, but when we came in you were glazing over. I tried calling out to you but you weren't responding."
"Oh, so that's why you rugby tackled me to the floor." George leapt into action again at that, pushing up and offering a hand out to Y/n. Lockwood and Lucy had found the Source, and now the agency head stood with a small object wrapped in a silver net. "Is that... is that her?" Lockwood nodded.
"A comb, of all things. Luce says it was her favourite?"
"The one with the fake pearls in it?" Y/n asked, unable to tear their eyes off of the object.
"Yeah, looked like it. She um, she showed me something else," Lucy spoke, a little tentative. Y/n gestured for Lucy to continue, and the girl lead the two of them upstairs to their parents' bedroom. "There was a moment when she uh, she pointed to this drawer. There was a letter inside, addressed to you. I think she wrote it for you, and wanted you to have it. Did you know about it?"
Y/n shook their head. "No. I had no idea." Carefully they opened the drawer and lifted out the envelope inside, trying desperately to hold back the tears at seeing their mother's handwriting.
"Do you... do you wanna read it now? Because I can give you some space if you do," Lucy asked gently, placing a hand on Y/n's shoulder.
"Please, thanks Lucy." The girl wrapped them in a hug, tight and crushing, and when she pulled away she wiped the tears off of Y/n's cheeks.
"We'll be in the kitchen if you need anything, alright?" Y/n nodded, sitting down on the bed when Lucy had shut the door behind her with a soft click and opening the letter.
~~~
A short while later a knock sounded on the door, and George's messy curls poked in, followed by the rest of his body. "Hey, how are you doing?" He came over and sat down next to them, placing an arm around their shoulders and bringing them in for a slightly awkward hug.
"I'm okay. I think," Y/n frowned.
"What... what did the letter say?"
"Just about how much she loves me, and how proud she is of me. It's funny, it doesn't feel like she's gone a lot of the time, but every now and then I'll see something that makes me think of her and I just... I have to stop myself from breaking down." They paused for a moment. "The paper smells like her. It's nice to have this, as a reminder of her."
George didn't say anything, instead just stroking their back, and they were glad for the comfort. He might have a tendency to say the wrong thing sometimes, or accidentally offend people, but George was a damn good partner, and Y/n was glad that he was there to help them.
The two of them headed downstairs a few minutes later, finding Lockwood and Lucy arguing about what the best kind of biscuit was over cups of freshly made tea. George joined the argument, gesturing wildly as he fought for his biscuit of choice, and Y/n could only chuckle slightly at their partner's antics. They gladly accepted the mug of tea that Lucy pushed their way, and smiled at the three agents gathered in their kitchen.
Their mother might be gone, leaving a hole in Y/n's heart, but these three people in front of them were just what was needed to fill it.

hiii 🤍 if possible, could i request a part 2 of the trust issues s/o, but this time with mitsuya and maybe baji??
also, i hope ur day/evening is going rlly well ☺️
Hi hi!! Of course! My day has been very good! I hope your day/night is also going well ^-^ Sorry this took some time, I hope you enjoy!
Tumblr media
Pairing: Mitsuya x Reader, Baji x Reader
TW: hurt/comfort, minor neglect, minor depictions of PTSD/trauma, mild angst (with happy endings)
Reader Type: Gender Neutral (Baji refers to reader as Angel) Word Count: ~300 each
A/N: I won't be doing colored text anymore as I see that it messes up default color text for dark mode users on mobile! Apologies for that <3 You can read part one here.
Tumblr media
Mitsuya
Mitsuya had been working longer hours than usual lately. He had a fashion show at the end of the week and while he promised to make time for you, he had failed to keep it for several days in a row. Now he was arriving home to your shared apartment, a carefully made dinner long gone cold still sat on the dining table. A frown formed on his lips as he searched to find you curled up on your bed in the fetal position, crying softly. 
“Hey, hey, come on now.” He said softly as he laid down beside you, wrapping you in his arms. You flinched at the soft touch, and he instantly felt a huge wave of guilt wash over him. “I’m sorry,” He said as he tried to pepper you with kisses, but each time you shied away from him. 
“This is the fourth night in a row, Taka.” You mumbled, obviously still very upset with him. A few kisses weren’t going to dig him out of the hole he had put himself in by overworking. He had always struggled with time management, especially when a deadline was so close. 
“I know,” though he sounded regretful, you were skeptical of how bad he truly felt. Mitsuya wanted nothing more than to bring that pretty smile back to your face. “Why didn’t you call me? I told you before you should. I get so wrapped up that I forget to check the time.” 
“I just figured if you cared, you would want to come home and spend time with me.” You replied, and he knew that your fractured trust was partially his fault. He kissed the top of your head, his lips lingering there for a long time as you lay in silence for what felt like hours. 
“I’ve been working on a surprise for you.” He admitted sheepishly, “I wasn’t going to tell you but the grande finale to my show is a garment I made especially for you. I’ve just been so obsessed with making it perfect that I guess I lost sight of what’s more important, which is our relationship. 
A small smile lit up your face, “Really? For me?” 
“Yes, of course.” He said, giving your body a gentle squeeze as he hugged you. “Just for you.”
Tumblr media
Baji
Baji had always been a bit of a wild card. He was known to fly off the handle at small inconveniences, and something even had simple as hunger could make him do violent things. However, one thing Baji had never done was show this kind of violence towards you.
It wasn’t until one particularly bad night, he had gotten into a fight and was still high on adrenaline when he came home. He began slamming doors to cabinets, kicking furniture, and generally being aggressive towards inanimate objects. 
He was too caught up in his anger to notice the way you were cowering away from him. How every loud sound that he made would make you swallow hard and pull the blanket wrapped around your shoulders even tighter. It wasn’t until he realized that you were missing from his side did he notice how petrified you looked. 
“Hey, hey, Angel I’m sorry.” He murmured, knowing he’d gotten caught up in his own head again. He didn’t mean to frighten you, and while he’d never lay a hand on you he knew that your trauma response couldn’t be helped. He put on a smile to try and show that he wasn’t upset and you let out a relieved sigh. 
“I hate when you get like that, Kei…” You said in a quiet voice.
“I know,” He replied, pulling you into a tight hug. “I got carried away again. There’s some ice cream in the freezer, why don’t I make us both a bowl and you put on a movie you like, would that make you feel better?” 
You nodded, relieved that he could be so sweet and understanding despite such a rough exterior. Baji pulled away from you and grinned. “Go pick out what you want to watch, then.” He watched as you shuffled into the living room and he made a mental note that next time he should just stay out until he’s calmed down.

sea fox post time
All under the cut cause I'm gonna ramble like crazy <3
Tumblr media
The sea fox is genuinely absolutely massive, it's not obvious in this image but the damn thing is huge, more than big enough to fit a good few life boats and row boats in it (and fit them it does)
The sea fox is so large because it used to be a flagship, things have changed a lot since then (although it is still just as big and long (don't take that out of context)) but nonetheless it's still a functional ship, and Marbled gets repairs and upgrades done on it frequently
When Marbled had acquired the ship, it wasn't in particularly good condition, so he took it to a friend and they basically striped the ship down to it's skeleton and then rebuilt it, with Marbled's specifications of course
The ship does still have all of it's sails and stuff, it genuinely needs them to move, these images are just more simplified for the sake of I don't know how to draw ships-
The ship has massive ear shaped buoys on each side, which are meant to keep the ship from sinking in particularly stormy and weather and in the case of aggressive sea monsters (they are also just there to keep the ship more stable)
You might be wondering, "Why is there what looks to be a lamp on the end of the 'tail' of the ship?" Short answer, Blue Moonstone.
Long answer, Marbled had it installed after an incident where Moonstone got turned around and disoriented during a particularly nasty and foggy storm in some unfortunately murky water, her tail smacked into the side of the ship by accident due to her confusion, they eventually got her up into the ship and after that storm Marbled opted to make a detour back to his friend to get the lamp installed.
Circling back to the life boat talk-
Tumblr media
One thing about the sea fox is that it has a "mouth" so to speak, two massive metal pieces, of which are connected by a surprisingly strong chain, and the bottom jaw lowers to allow life boats and row boats into the safety of the built in dock in the ship
Marbled used to be a lot kinder back when he first had the dock installed, things have changed and he's realized things, but he refuses to remove the dock, because even if he's a jackass sometimes now he can't allow himself to let people die, even if they deserve it
The crew's quarters are absolutely massive, involving pretty much an entire living room alongside all the beds and hammocks, the crew live pretty well in their own opinion and they wouldn't trade it for anything
The loot and major supply storage is connected to the infirmary, of which the infirmary door is, kind of stuck permanently open :'D unfortunate for the sea fox's paramedic, but at the least everything in there is very easy to tie down
The kitchen has it's own food storage just above it, which the quartermaster (remember the buff lady i was drawing the other day alongside two other cookies? yeah she's the quartermaster) is grateful because it makes sending the small crew members for ingredients a lot easier
A fun thing to know is that the whole crew (spare for the littles) all take turns cooking, even Marbled takes a turn every so often
The brig/prison is placed close to the ship entrance of the dock, another set of stairs just outside the second door leading up to the brig. The space in between the two doors is sort of just a mud room, if you've ever had one of those- put short anyone brought in from the dock is checked over for injuries, general sickness, and cleaned up before they're properly brought onto the ship
The captain's quarters are at the top of the ship, and include Marbled's office at the front of the room, and then up a few small steps and behind a door, is his bedroom, lavishly furnished and with a large round bed for his comfortability (trying to sleep in a rectangular bed as a centaur can be, awkward-), his bedroom is like the definition of cozy
Unfortunately for Marbled he does not get his bedroom to himself because Moonstone and multiple of the littler crewmates can and will barge into his bedroom and lay down with him without warning (the littles need the comfort and Moonstone is very used to sleeping in cuddle piles)
(don't worry he gets used to the lack of privacy eventually, and finds ways around 'em)
Alright I think that's enough rambling from me (questions are welcome <3)

Welcome to my essay on why DAVID MILLER is the most PERFECT human being in Jacksons diary and the plot does him dirty (it's 9 PM and i slept 5 hours last night so 🤩)
Season 1.
#1. David is the first and, initially, ONLY person to show kindness to Jackson and accept him when he is new. Immediately, he treats Jackson like an old friend, making him feel welcome and comfortable without a second thought. Even Pamela and Brenda don't show the same kind of acceptance and outgoing inclusion that he does. Yes, he brushes of Exers actions towards Jackson at first, but in his defense he doesn't yet know about the magic AND he is doing the best he can keeping the balance between hinting at Exer to stop his aggression while slowly trying to merge Jackson in with them. He just wants Exer and Jackson to get along, and yes Exers hostile behaviour was a red flag BUT Exer is his oldest friend so obviously he have more tolerance for Exer and put his feelings first in the end. He persistently tries to include Jackson and be kind and friendly to him despite the influence of his friend, which is more than a lot of douchebag 17 year olds can say for themselves.
#2. David is quick to forgive, a favour which Jackson does NOT return (I'll mention this later) . When he is under the impression that Jackson was creeping on his sister, he had a strong and, admittedly, disproportionate reaction. However, as soon as things got cleared up, despite Exers misleading him or planting doubtful hints, David apologises for getting things wrong and leaves it all in the past.
#3. Protectiveness. In itself, loyalty and protectiveness for your friends and family is an admirable trait, one that David possesses in excess. It does lead him to jumping to conclusions too quickly and acting harshly in defense of his sister or Exer, the most extreme example being his hostile attitude to Pamela. But an entirely flawless character would feel superficial and annoying, and David's accountability and forgiveness and will to improve always makes up for this. And all of his less defensible actions do stem from a good place within. He also shows this trait in little ways, like defending girls being sexually harassed in the hallways or defends Exer when he is attacked by Jackson. He eventually takes against Jackson when he sees him beating the crap out of Exer in the hallway, which without the context of the magic and the abuse Exer had been carrying out over the season, this seems like a pretty damn reasonable thing to ice someone out about.
#4. David has others interests at heart and he gives people the benefit of the doubt. He sees the good in people. Exer manipulates David into believing that Jackson doesn't really like him and doesnt want to be around the REDs (using magic primarily). David isn't quick to believe Exers assertion that Jackson doesn't like them, he only believes it after many instances in a row. And even then, his reaction isn't with anger or disbelief- in fact, he wonders what he could be doing wrong, and resolves to give Jackson the space he needs while STILL maintaining his civility and politeness. It's almost as if he was stepping back but leaving the door open for Jackson to reach out if he wanted to, an incredibly mature reaction that shows empathy and emotional intelligence.
Season 2
This is where I start to get pretty annoyed.
I will acknowledge that David was stubborn to make up with Exer over his sister, but there are clear character motivations there and feelings of betrayal and being lied to that are clearly conflicting him, so their eventual make-up is even more satisfying and probably shouldn't have happened any other way.
What pisses me off is the fact that Jacksons Diary is trying to convince us that David is somehow equally responsible for what happened to Jackson throughout season 1?!?! David mentions several times how bad he feels about his "bullying" towards Jackson (which never took place, seeing as bullying is a repeated act of malice with no reasonable motivation) and everyone else just nods along as if David DID do something wrong.
Then he also confesses to bullying Jackson and reaps the consequences of it? The only people responsible were Exer and Ron (lets admit it, Ron was needlessly rude and hostile to Jackson from the beginning), so it makes no sense to me why it is portrayed as if David, Pamela and Brenda all had a hand in it. It also makes me dislike Jackson more as a character that he seems to hold David to it even after David's apology, seeing as David knew nothing of the magic or the bullying and only reacted to what he saw, which Jackson KNOWS. ESPECIALLY after David showed him nothing but forgiveness and friendliness throughout season one.
David is essentially another victim of Exers magical manipulation and miscommunication in the first season, which I think should be acknowledged instead of just pinning the blame on everyone who ever took Exers side when he literally MANIPULATED them! I think a friendship between David and Jackson should exist again once Jackson stops being emo and feeling sorry for himself, and Jackson needs to return some of that tolerance and forgiveness that David showed him earlier on. At some point Jackson just viewed Exer and everyone associated with him as a collective evil, and now he had somewhat forgiven Exer and Ron and fully forgiven Brenda and Pamela. So tell me why David has been lumped in with Exer in the kind-of-forgiven club as if what he did was NEARLY as bad? He, much like Brenda, was more of a pawn in Exer's game. I just feel like the character has been so wronged by pretty much everyone around him and deserves to be cut a little slack because he really didn't do that much wrong and is basically held accountable for Exer's actions throughout season 2 (You could say he's taking one for the team, or going through it with Exer because he's a loyal friend, and that just makes him even better and proves my point further)
On top of being held accountable for SHIT HE DIDNT DO, he also got kicked out by his dad and is just having a really rough time. I think David was a huge part of Exer's redemption arc and he is a good influence, optimist with boundless love and kindness and a character who does not deserve all this shit.
Basically I love David hate Jackson and Ron end of rant bye love you 😘

So! after all this time! i got my act together and finally got a good ref n stuff for my ghostsona! I now present to you: Harry! (basic info/extra art under cut)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
-Harry, (otherwise known as the Schoolboy Ghost) he/him pronouns (genderfluid)
-chinese 14 y/o kiddo <3
-extremely shy and anxious, especially around others. however he enjoys reading books and doodling, its calming and he likes being alone in peace and quiet. Also a huge ass nerd. Despite being generally sweet and kind natured, he can be quite snarky if something is truly pissing him off or if he just wants to be alone
-Voice sounds very young-teenager-like. Kinda like steward in a way? but more immature and unsure kinda sounding-
-That gold star on his uniform is supposed to be a reference to the gold stars teachers give out to good students, as well as bc i didnt feel like making a fucking school crest or whatever-
-Was a private school student in a very prestigous sorta school. He was extremely successful n smart n all, however at one point the pressure and stress to maintain this streak got too much and he commit suicide by jumping off a building.
-Name is a reference to the fact that he is very Hairy, having a fucking mass of course, wild hair. He utilizes it by using it as storage space (ex, the elevator button)
-haunts floor xx, The Library, consisting of a spooky library, mazes of organized bookshelves, rows of old ass computers and desks and workstations, a lil lounge area, a lil storytime kids section, beanbags, front desk, etc.
-As Luigi navigates through the rows of shelves, acting as a giant maze with some Secret entrances n stuff, he eventually comes across the lil kids section, a corner with space for storytime, complete with shelves of childrens books and toys. Sitting in the middle of this area, is Harry, who appears to be happily drawing in a book, taking and putting away pencils from his hair
-When Luigi sees this, he is obviously scared, however determined to get that elevator button he noticed in his hair. When Harry notices him, he runs off, scared shitless
-the battle works where luigi needs to track the ghost down with the darklight, revealing he is possessing a bookshelf, which springs to life and proceeds to attack him, spitting books, paper airplanes, trash, etc. and also tryna body slam him. Luigi attacks by, when given the right moment to whip behind him, to plunger the back of the shelf and slam that mf
-when the bookcase is destroyed, he tumbles out, stunned and sucked by luigi, before managing to run off again and fade away, the process repeating again in a different area
-Once his hp is about 50ish, instead of running away from the broken shelf, he will retreat into a book, now bouncing around aggressively and quickly like an angry dog, leaping up and biting as well as spitting papers at him
-luigi defeats him by tiring him out and trying to flip him onto his side using that elevating vacuum move thing idk what its called, then he can plunger him and slam until the book is destroyed, then sucking him up once and for all for the elevator button
-In the lab, he is calmly sitting, drawing in a book
-Harry's extremely upset about his death, and makes up for it in the afterlife by spending his time studying/reading books (of free will), drawing, playing with toys, etc
-hes allowed to stay bc he manages the library, cleaning n organizing the place for others n all bc he finds it fun. also he helps with the hotel's finances and other problems from time to time too
annnnnnd thats all i got for now! thank u for reading and i hope you like him as much as i do hehe :o>

For the ask game!
1, 3, and 4 for the oldest oc you've made! (creation not age)
Tumblr media
(Not mad nor any ill will towards you <3 but I have history with the question of oldest/first oc I made. I've been asked that multiple times in a row lol)
I'm gonna answer this for Jetter/Peaches (she/her) bc she's pretty old at this point and still in use! Also bc I thought her creative journey is worth documenting! (I'm actually working on a design timeline post for her!)
1 - what was the first element of your character you remember considering? (name, backstory, appearance ect)
Umm appearance I'm pretty sure, I remember really vividly imagining her presence and everything back when she made her debut in the rp where she was created (or created for). Idk about backstory but as an element of her character I also obviously had her status in-story very strongly in mind right from the get go since she was basically introduced as "Here's that authority figure of our characters' group oooooooh". So like to sum up, the first thing was just her presence and vibe (Tall, intimidating/mysterious looking, quiet and formal but turns out she's actually nice and sweet off hours but isn't allowed to show that)
3 - How did you choose their name?
It's half "Sounded cool" And half "This warrior has a very grim name bc of in story lore" (cracks knuckles). Jetter, legal name assigned at birth, is derived from an in world weapon, a sort of rocket launched bomb, which are categorized by color according to how dangerous/destructive they are. The most destructive ones are black (called Black Jets), and her parents were like "Ah yes our son shall be named something great to represent his strength and power, I'm sure he'll grow up into a mighty warrior!". So it's like, she's black (the color black, not a poc, she's not a human) and they expect great things from her. I've considered changing this part of the lore bc there's a conflict between me liking the name Jetter purely bc of how it sounds in my mouth, but knowing that the character herself would have baggage over the name and if given the chance might change it. FYI she's a trans woman who grew up in a society where everyone of her class has to be strong and are automatically assumed to be more aggressive and tough by nature, whereas she's actually a very gentle, peace loving soul. Sure, she has aggression obviously, but she hates being branded by violence and being labeled something dangerous.
Now the second thing, Peaches. Back when i made the decision to trans her gender I wondered if she'd want to change her name and if so, to what? I remembered her fav fruit, Peaches, and it just felt. Cute. I'm still really really attached to her og name which is why I keep referring to her as Jetter/Peaches (also bc she hasn't canonically changed her name yet so it's not incorrect either. It's still wip). I thought maybe she'd just be called J for short, which I've also been doing. The name thing is still ongoing but rn I'm thinking maybe she'll relegate the Jetter name to a last name and take on either Peaches as her first, or just be called J for short
4 - in developing their backstory, what elements of the world they live in played most influential parts?
Oops I pretty much answered this already in the prev question 😅 the name is so intrinsically tied to her lore and original world. But definitely absolutely the fact that she was born into the warrior "caste" in her kingdom, that has shaped so so much of her person. The expectations, prejudice and stereotypes, the mold she was forced to fit, the authority position she was put in which put her one step up in the oppression ladder but only so that she'd be punching down on her own kind and not by choice. And still always be looked down upon by her superiors no matter how intelligent and sophisticated she became. Yea heavy stuff. I'm trying to rework alot of this with my current understanding of these topics. But I'm talking about the (kinda touchy) past here. It's a delicate subject for me but I like to think that my disgust towards how I handled it (and the company that reinforced all that) indicates my growth as a person. There's some stuff here I've left out, for good reason. Makes me uncomfortable. But yes, her caste is definitely biggest contribution, second biggest probably being that parasitic plant she got infested with lol

MHA Character ratings pt. 1/7
I've wanted to rate MHA characters for a while now, but felt weird about posting it on my main blog, so I'm doing it here.
There'll be 10 characters at time, with a rating for their hero/villain name, quirk name, hero/villain outfit, their characterization, and then their average rating.
Average rating does not indicate how well I like them. (though certain ratings might be influenced by how well i like the character)
Also, these are based on my own opinions, please don't be a dick about anything and any unnecessary hate will result in a blocking
Anyways, On with the ratings!
Pro-Heroes
1.) Todoroki Enji -
Tumblr media
Hero name: Endeavor - His hero name works really well with his character, the word means to try hard to do or achieve something, which is the core to Enji's character. 8/10
Quirk name: Hellflame - That's just a dope name in general, and since he has a fire quirk it tells you straight up what's going on. I think it also works well in telling you that he's not a 'nice' guy in general since the word hell is negatively associated most of the time. 8/10
Hero Uniform - I dunno, he looks weird and off putting to me, it also makes him look a lot bigger than he actually is, which is good for intimidation (he looks better in civilian clothes to me, and i'm always thrown by how much smaller he looks). I'm also just not a big fan of spandex hero costumes in general either so.... 3/10
Character - He's a grade A bitch, the man is literally introduced as an abuser, something he doesn't really stop being until after becoming number 1, (I could make a whole nother post on Enji's character and why I wanna strangle him, but that's not for here). He's a great hero, you don't make #2 consecutively for years in a row without being good at your job. However, a lot of that is overshadowed by the fact that he's an asshole. Honestly, his rating is what it is just because I don't like him, and I probably never will, even if he's "getting better". 4/10
Overall rating - 5.75/10
2.) Takami Keigo -
Tumblr media
Hero name: Hawks - It's a good name, but I don't think it really fits into his character well. Hawks are predatory birds and when a character is given a link like that they're usually aggressive, but I don't think that fits with Hawks. Then again, he might not have picked the name himself, the Commission might have picked it with an idea of the type of person they wanted him to be. 7/10
Quirk name; Fierce Wings - pretty cool name, and tells you that he has wings and that they're something you gotta be careful about
Hero Uniform - It's, eh. I'm personally not fond of it, I think it's just the jacket that bothers me, it looks weird on him, he looks pretty good without it. It is necessary though because he flies fast and high and needs to keep from freezing, the same way the headphones and earmuffs are. (maybe i just don't like the beige color). 5/10
Character - He is so relatable to me, and he cares so much about people in general. He's so willing to ruin himself to help other people. His character is just so interesting to me. (yeah, i'm a Hawks simp) 9/10
Overall rating - 7.5/10
3.) Tsunagu Hakamada -
Tumblr media
Hero name: Best Jeanist - It's a weird name, but it fits him given that he's a popular hero and his quirk works best with denim 7/10
Quirk name: Fiber Master - I mean, he is the master of fiber, but yeah, the name tells you that he works with fiber and the 'master' implies that he has great control over, which he does. 8/10
Hero Uniform - It doesn't look bad, it's just a lot of denim, and the high collar is weird to look at, though I'm sure it's just so there's more fiber for him to work with. (wait, wait, wait, is he wearing 2 tops, that's egregious, take a point off) 6/10
Character - He's very level headed and is pretty smart, you can't make #4 without being able to do you job well, and having a good personality helps make that spot. He's just the kind of person Bakugo needs, I know a lot of people think someone like Mirko would be better, but Bakugo's biggest issue is that he's very abrasive, and not in a good way. He's a jerk a lot at the beginning and that's something that needs to brought down, he does not need to be insulting everyone he sees, Jeanist is exactly the kind of person to help with that. He's high enough ranking that Bakugo will listen, and has a steady vibe, he's not the kind to get riled up easily and that's necessary for dealing with Bakugo. 7/10
Overall rating - 7/10
4) Usagiyama Rumi -
Tumblr media
Hero name: Mirko (or MIruko) - I couldn't find a translation for her hero name, so I don't know if there's a significance to it or not, so, 7/10
Quirk name: Rabbit - it definitely describes it, she's got rabbit ears that hear more, really powerful legs, and some 'animal senses' that alert to danger faster than other people 7/10
Hero Uniform - it's a leotard with some thigh-high boots, mmm, it's a bit sexualized. You can't say the leotard is so her legs are free to move better when she's wearing thigh-high boots, personally it gives a bit of a playboy bunny feel. But, she does look good, the outfit isn't off putting in anyway so, 7/10
Character - she's not aggressive but, she's very strong-willed. I think that as she's an Asian women her being more fiery is good given that Asian women are stereotypically shy and soft, so it's a good subversion 7/10
Overall rating - 7/10
5.) Susugu Mitarai -
Tumblr media
Hero name: Wash - it's such a basic name, it doesn't give much except that it has something to do with cleaning 4/10
Quirk name: Clean Bubbler - it actually cleans, as seen in one chapter, so the name describes it well, it's an ok name 6/10
Hero Uniform - he is dressed as a fucking washing machine, I despise him, it's not even him just being a sentient washing machine, that would be weird but fine, the man chooses to dress that way, its ridiculous 1/10
Character - you don't really see much but he seems like a nice enough guy, he helps people even if they're being dicks about it 6/10
Overall rating - 4.25/10
6.) Ryuko Tatsuma -
Tumblr media
Hero name: Ryukyu - the kanji used for ryu means dragon, and kyu sounds close to how the kanji for nine is pronounced, so it fits given that she transforms into a dragon and was #9 in the rankings 8/10
Quirk name: Dragon - wow, so descriptive, but it fits, she transforms into a dragon 7/10
Hero Uniform - it's a very pretty outfit and she's still wearing it when she transforms and it looks nice on her, the claws over her eyes is interesting as well 7/10

Overall rating - 7.25/10
7.) Seruki -
Tumblr media
Hero name: Selkie - he's a seal heteromorph but the name isn't just straight up Seal, selkies are mythological creature who are seals that can shed their skin and take a human form, he's a good mix between looking human and looking like a seal, it mixes really well 10/10
Quirk: Spotted Seal - it makes him a seal/human and is a good name that tells you exactly what's going on, and again, it's a bit more than just Seal 8/10
Hero Uniform - he's wearing a wetsuit and googles, it's visually unobtrusive and fits for the type of work he does 8/10

Quirk - Orcinus, well, it's not straight up Orca, it tells you that he's got some orca thing going on 7/10
Hero Uniform - very dapper looking, though the cape/tail whatever looks a little off with the way it hangs 7/10
Character - you don't see much of him but apparently he gives presentations at aquariums and that's so cute 8/10
Overall rating - 7.25/10
9.) Taishiro Toyomitsu -
Tumblr media
Hero name: Fat Gum - mmm, it sorta works, like if you told me his quirk and then his name, I'd be like 'that works', but just the name doesn't really give much 6/10
Quirk name: Fat Absorption - his fat absorbs things and can even hold stuff in it, pretty spot on 7/10
Hero Uniform - he wears what looks like a tracksuit and some boots and gloves, it's not bad, it's just kinda bland, it probably helps him look soft to make sure people aren't scared and is easier to absorb and hold stuff since it's more flexible 6/10
Character - he's so nice, his jovial attitude meshes well with Kirishima and is a better personality for Amajiki to be around with his anxiety, a soft but firm person to help put people at ease and reassure the people around him 9/10
Overall rating - 7/10

3, 17, 71, and 114 for both Thad and Rory<3
3. Does your character prefer to work in silence or with noise and of what kind? Rory likes to listen to podcasts and audiobooks while she's at the office! She likes to have something with a narrative to keep her from dying of bordom at work. But I think when she's doing stuff with Thad she'd just rather talk to him. Thad has become very enamored with modern technology being able to play so many noises. He likes to listen to pretty much any music, he's not picky. Sometimes he gets distracted and starts dancing along!
17. How petty is your character? hi i misread this as "how pretty is your character" and almost posted this ask with that. (For the record I don't think Rory usually puts much effort into her appearance. I think she looks nice tho. Thad on the other hand is a handsome lad and loves to look pretty.)
Rory can be a bit petty, she's not very good at hiding it and it normally manifests as her being passive aggressive or sarcastic to the person she's upset at. Thaddeus likes to think he's not easily bothered, but he's actually been holding grudges for decades and if he got the chance to get back at those people he absolutely would.
71. How good is your character at reading people and navigating social situations? Ooooh. They're both bad in different ways. Rory doesn't care much about social interactions, she just kind of goes through the motions with a monotone voice and doesn't usually care about how the other person is feeling. Thad on the other hand cares so much about what other people think of him, but he's too selfish to be able to fully commit to acting how someone needs or wants. He does make an honest try and he's very polite by nature! He's just very likely to do what he wants, or assume he knows whats best for the other party more than they do. That said they do both kind of help each other become better at interpersonal connections over time :>
114. Do any of your characters insist on going by their fullname rather than a nickname? Thaddeus really likes it when Rory gives him affectionate nicknames, it means they're getting along well! He doesn't mind too much being called Thad by people he knows but he'd rather most folks called him Thaddeus as a sign of respect. (A quote from him I've been sitting on: "Or, I will answer to mi'lord, Master, or Your Excellency, if you see fit!") I've been assuming that Rory's name is short for something because she doesn't like going by her full name. I just looked up what Rory can be short for and it's now canon that her full name is Aurora and she hates being called that. Partly because she doesn't like being associated with Sleeping Beauty. Her parents had her dress up as her three years in a row for Halloween and she's still bitter XD

Cindy as teenage “psychopath” how does she fit into the JSA for Season 3
Cindy a psychopath how does she fit into the JSA for Season 3? Now I know that DC Stargirl is fictional world that does that fiction does best - fit things to the most drama means not reality. It’s unlikely they are doing research into psychopathy in children & teens and hoping to prepare a realistic version in a 13 episode comic book show. I won’t even expect that from Doom Patrol. But here my two cents on the whole matter
In in my psychology criminology class we talked psychopathy in children and teens and it’s treatment. With further research I looked up treatment for children and teens and it’s complex matter.
“ Researchers shy away from calling children [& teens] psychopaths; the term carries too much stigma, and too much determinism. They prefer to describe children like Samantha as having “callous and unemotional traits,” shorthand for a cluster of characteristics and behaviors, including a lack of empathy, remorse, or guilt; shallow emotions; aggression and even cruelty; and a seeming indifference to punishment. Callous and unemotional children have no trouble hurting others to get what they want. If they do seem caring or empathetic, they’re probably trying to manipulate you.”
That describes Cindy doesn't it  callous and unemotional traits. a lack of empathy. Indifference to punishment. No trouble hurting others etc. But I found the next bit really fit Cindy
“So a lot of kids develop these traits out of almost a defense mechanism. And these tend to be the kids who are poor, who might live in abusive homes, who may be out on the street a lot. They have to develop a certain callousness and a certain lack of emotionality just to survive. It's believed by some that if you can put them in a safe environment that they actually will do very well and they will not end up as psychopaths. That is the thinking.”
That’s Cindy’s in a nut shell. who developed developed those traits as defense to the abuse and extermination her father when she a very young child. She was sweet kid in elementary school until her father exterminated on her and she killed her mom by mistake in fit childish angry with weapons a child shouldn’t have. Which traumatized and isolated her more. There is no treatment for adult psychopaths but kids haven’t formed their whole personality yet. So there is treatment for them. At least a people are trying to treat them and has some success. The treatment isn’t punishment but award based. It’s teaching intellignatal empathy and morals. 
“ Researchers believe that two paths can lead to psychopathy: one dominated by nature, the other by nurture. For some children, their environment—growing up in poverty, living with abusive parents, fending for themselves in dangerous neighborhoods—can turn them violent and coldhearted. These kids aren’t born callous and unemotional; many experts suggest that if they’re given a reprieve from their environment, they can be pulled back from psychopathy’s edge. “
Is this Cindy’s turning point? In real life this would be her turning point and she could be turned off the path of psychopathy. It looks like Courtney will be supporting this. Beth too. But others will be working against it. With the right support system and right choices Cindy could get off the path she’s on. the biggest thing is her brain isn’t finished forming. She’s made the first step wanting to change. She’s in the right enviorment which will be reward with friendship and the JSA not punishment as in jail or the shadowlands to grow. Lets see what happens. But it is fiction so this all might be moot lol
“ Still, researchers stress that a callous child—even one who was born that way—is not automatically destined for psychopathy. By some estimates, four out of five children with these traits do not grow up to be psychopaths. The mystery—the one everyone is trying to solve—is why some of these children develop into normal adults while others end up on death row. “
The question they are trying to answer now is this: Can Mendota’s treatment program not only change the behavior of these teens, but measurably reshape their brains as well? Researchers are optimistic, in part because the decision-making part of the brain continues to evolve into one’s mid‑20s. The program is like neural weight lifting, Kent Kiehl, at the University of New Mexico, says. “If you exercise this limbic-related circuitry, it’s going to get better.”
even if we don’t label them evil, we must try to head off their evil acts. It’s a daily struggle, planting the seeds of emotions that usually come so naturally—empathy, caring, remorse—in the rocky soil of a callous brain.
Danny says they’re praying for the triumph of self-interest over impulse. “Our hope is that she is able to have a cognitive understanding that ‘Even though my thinking is different, my behavior needs to walk down this path so that I can enjoy the good things that I want.’

Will Assebled love ever get a final chapter??
I hope so, anon, I hope so.
Tumblr media
To be completely honest, even if I still haven't decided how the story is gonna end, I have lots of ideas for the middle of the story. Lots of school drama tbh. The problem lies in the early chapters I'm struggling to finish. I'm working on the next chapter but it's still just halfway through. I have some ideas but I'm facing a lot of indecision about which scenes to keep and which to discard. And ocd. Ocd is driving me crazy when it comes to writing, it's my grestest obstacle and the one I'm trying to fight this year.
Can't promise next Assembled Love chapter will he ready next month but I'm ACTUALLY working on a request that is a 'what if' from that AU. Smut ofc. Like, I actually WROTE today. Crazy ik. So expect next post to be either that or another one of the ones I've been promising to post, like 'Gynecologist Albedo' (joke title), Butler Scara or Xiao wanting to have a child with reader, for example. The long fic that has the most possibilites of being updated soon is Catboys in the house. The next long chapter that follows the chronologic story with Xiao finally joining the household is just started, but I have lots of episodic content like usual. Headcanons, smut, smutty headcanons, yk, the usual.
Anyway, as I said my main problem with these early chapters of Assembled Love are indecision and it has to do with this problem: Ik in the chapter list I listed the next chapter as 'Perfect first time' implying that thr seggs is gonna happen next chap. But honestly I think this needs a bit more slowburn. Not so slow, just a bit more of interaction and situations to make the relationship between Scara and Y/N make more sense and be more enjoyable. So, what do you as readers think about this?
The second reason I don't update is toxic perfectionism. It kicks in when I care a lot about a story. At first Assembled Love was a funny side project I wrote randomly without stressing or putting much effort into it while I waited for inspo for Better Find Husbandos, the fic that was most important to me back then. So the words flowed easily and I posted a lot of chapters in a row. When I became invested in the story and really wanted to convey my exact views of the stories through the writing thr block and the toxic perfectionism came in. That's why I'm more prone to posting standalone oneshots instead of adding chapters to the AUs I care so much about, because I don't pressure myself that it has to perfectly convey my ideas about the story.
This toxic perfectionism is something I wanna tackle aggressively this year because honestly:
The not pefect fic you actually wrote will always be better than the perfect fic you never dared to try write.
Gotta ingrain that phrase in my brain permanently. Cuz I started writing to reread and enjoy my own fics but if I don't dare write I won't have anything to read. And that I read can always be edited and rewritten. Seeing authors rewrite their older fics just to make them waaay better years after encourages me to just write and have fun knowing that I can always try again and do it better next time. So that helps.
Let's not think about Assembled Love's final chapter when it's sitting just at chapter 4 and focus on the spin off that is on the making and idk, the next 3 chapters: I'm planning to add more characters with their dramas, Childe, Mona and Venti being the main ones. I want Assembled Love to be a dramatic romantic comedy in a last year of highschool setting, with teenagers struggling to become adults and debating between following what family and society expects from them and finding out what they really want to do with their lives. I want to add tropes of those movies from the United States I grew up watching and give them a twist of the dramatic telenovelas from Latin America, where I live. Will I be able to deliver? We'll see. If I don't I can always rewrite it.
That long chunk of text being said, thanks for sending me asks that make me reflect on my writing and my struggle to write cuz it helps me come up with ways of tackling it and refinding my passion about writing. I answered this one first cuz it's the latest I got but I have lots more I'm gonna answer cuz thst's one of my 2024 new year resolutions that are on my blog. So feel free to send more mail with any doubts you have or even with imagines or things you'd like to see on my stories cuz it never fails to give me inspo!

Mage tower wow
Tumblr media
Bladestorm feels kinda bad to use beyond a few ticks because it hits all targets and the damage is pitiful when hitting all the ice patches. The first phase isn't a race and for the comet storms I just slooowly worked my way out of them with Ignore Pain + Impending Victory spam, or a Warbreaker. Everything between is pretty easy until the last boss.įor Closing the Eye, Arms Warrior seemed perfectly fine. Wave 4 and 5 were really hard at first, until I learned what CDs to use where, then I did it 5 times in a row without fail. I only had 2 Infernals going into P2 which helped.įor End of the Risen Threat, I used Holy Paladin mostly because Restoration Shaman was the only other Healer I've played in SL and I heard it was buggy/really insane. The God-Queen's Fury: Retribution Paladinįor The Highlord's Return, I just used my main character, Vengeance DH might have an easier time due to avoiding knockbacks with Glide. I've just finished all 7 fights and got my Book! The list of fights I did is as follows: Trying to squeeze a few GCDs for more boss damage or AoE the adds means agonies are falling off and ID won’t be stacking quickly enough to live.įor me, Karam died at roughly 4 minutes and the fight ended at 10 minutes. Then, every 5-10 seconds, we have to channel drain life into the boss to heal enough to live through the next few casts. There isn’t a way to AoE spread agony, so once Raest berserks, we spend a ton of gcds to apply agony individually to the shadow adds we are kiting to build ID stacks. Our talent Inevitable Demise buffs our next drain life cast every time our agony hits, up to 50 stacks. Once he dies, Raest instantly Berserks and we have to desperately try to survive. The solution was to pop CDs and lust into Karam at the start of the 3rd chase to kill him before the mechanics became overwhelming. All while killing hands and trying to burn the bosses somehow. We put our pet on passive and micromanage its position to soak then to get in range of hand to interrupt then back to soak and so on. The rune soak mechanic can be soaked by our pet and often has to be because shadow adds can just be spawning right on top if it. The fight is easy up until Karam’s 3rd chase, when the hands and rune soak mechanics are both happening while trying to kite. The encounter ends when Raest dies if Karam dies first, Raest berserks and his casts 2-3 shot.įor Affliction, they doubled Raest’s health so it isn’t feasible to squeeze in enough damage to Raest to kill him before Karam needs to die, so Aff deals with berserk for a while. The fight is easy, then an aggressive burn, then a long endurance to the end.įor every other spec, the fight is kite Karam to 33% > burn for 30sec on Raest > kite Karam to 33% with Hands > burn again for 30sec on Raest > then kite while dealing with Hands and soaks and kill Raest before Karam hits you. There are seven encounters available, and your specialization will determine which challenge you'll face.Affliction (Twins) is pretty aggressively tuned. There, at Deliverance Point, you'll be able to enter the tower and engage in a challenge meant to test your skills. Travel to the Broken Isles and reach the Broken Shore from Dalaran. As such, starting on the week of March 29, the Mage Tower will be accessible at any time, no longer tied to the Legion Timewalking Bonus Event. Having heard feedback and seen how it has played out, we agree that a personal skill challenge being available only for a short window of time every few months isn't in the spirit of these types of events. Timeworn Keystones were part of that, and the Mage Tower as well. UPDATE: When we originally developed the Legion Timewalking Bonus Event, we were looking for other fun features from Legion we could add to it. Are you a master of your class? It's time to put your knowledge and skill to the test once more! Now the Tower is open once again, bringing back the excitement with all-new rewards to obtain, and a chance to prove your tenacity. When first introduced in Legion, the Mage Tower challenged players to conquer unique solo class-specific encounters.

taking abt religious trauma so if that bothers you you might wanna skip this one
I've been reminded of it and now I've come here to say my father REALLY fucked up trying to raise good convective christians THREE TIMES IN A ROW
just to walk you through some of the shit me and my siblings (my older sibling is 26, I'm 21, and my little sister is 17) had to put up with
- we had an hour everynight where we weren't allowed to do anything but read the bible or pray,, our "timeout" when we got in trouble was sitting at the table and praying
when i was 8 and was like "hey uh i don't think god exists" i was scolded and punished for ever thinking such a thing
and to this day my father still makes it a point to bring up "what the bible says" about any of our decisions, he also regularly gets shitty with me for not giving him the joy of arguing abt it.
any way theres much more that i won't get into for 1) not completely trauma dumping and 2) for the sake of not having to add more content warnings
anyway after all that he ended up with three openly queer aggressively and vocally left wing kids (who are also 2 satanists and a wiccan )
so yeah long story short growing up as a kid trying to unlearn the gut wrenching fear of fucking up and angering god to now genuinely enjoying the things i do without fear or shame has been one of the most difficult and most rewarding experiences in my life so far and my dad can suck it <3
