#treated as a friend after the fact but is someone you know that struggles triggering topics

[colourstreakgryffin]

hey there honey! i'm here to request deerest alastor meeting a blitzo-like gn! reader fic if that's alright with you;) ( by that I mean either the reader with blitzo's story/persona/both if you wish. )

the genre? fluff, angst- anything, really. i kinda just wanna see how one would think they'd interact !

basically, i'm fine with anything, i do love a good surprise haha . it's rather more interesting;)

on a sidenote; i actually got this idea after watching some snippets of our boy and by recalling our conversation earlier. so i was hoping to see what's in store for our beloved if al were to ever cross paths with someone like him.

for an afterthought- man, i must say that i absolutely cherish this emo guy now.

( this could be platonic, or romantic; whatever you think fits for this shot/anything that is to your liking! )

hopefully this ask wasn't too confusing, and that you're fine with it. thank you, have a great day<3

Y E S! I love Blitzø from Helluva Boss so this duo will be so interesting! Alastor will have quite the difficulty to deal with a Blitzø! Leitora but yet, he will like them!

Alastor- Chaotic I.M.P

General

Alastor has such the passive-aggressive, crude, snarky, prickly Imp to handle. He doesn’t do that well but he also doesn’t shut said Imp out for the way they are… it’s just rough

Alastor’s patience is both worn out and stretched over further with you, the head of I.M.P and the royalty of being so immature and blood-thirsty. A assassin that’s trigger happy, and he isn’t sure how long he can stay calm with you

Alastor finds you interesting. Your mouth is vulgar but you’re actually very intelligent in your work and you rile up your little employee group very well. How fascinating, he considers studying you to figure out how native demons like yourself act

Alastor likes teasing you about your much shorter height and tugging you on your long tail. Both are methods to piss you off and maybe methods to make you pay attention to him as well

Most HCs of platonic can also apply to romantic then a few HCs of romantic can apply to platonic!

Platonic

Alastor doesn’t know how to react to the fact you’re constantly stalking him and following him around. You envy his relaxed, happy self and craves exactly what he has so you regularly watch him. All the times he’s caught you filming him… too many times

Alastor finds you hilarious. Your violent, dark sense of humour actually makes him chuckle and he encourages you to feel confident in what makes you laugh. It makes him laugh so it’s simply perfect

Alastor likes to tease you even more than he already does. Annoy you, piss you off, squeeze your face inbetween fingers to lead you on. It’s all so amusing and the way you bark out with rage at this has his day fixed instantly

Alastor does speak honestly about his own issues with you. He trusts you, you’re like the other friends he has, he may have known them specifically longer but he feels like he can be himself around you. You’re not that bad after all

Alastor finds it pretty cute that you have your own Hellhound child. You have a 22 year old Hellhound son/daughter/child and you’re so loving and affectionate to that Hellhound. He just watches it from the sideline, smiling widely and planning how to use this against you to mess with you

Alastor invites you out to hangouts regularly. To clubs, to drinking bars. Anywhere where it’s just you and him, and you two can just let loose by having drinking contests that end in Alastor slamming alcohol like a sailor and struggling to keep up with you on the dancefloor

Alastor will let you touch him with it seems fit but he doesn’t mind you randomly touching him. He likes you, you’re a wonderful snarky little Imp so he can excuse any type of touch, any time

Alastor’s smile and personality is more natural around his Imp friend and he treats all his friends equally so when you’re around, he’s smiling, giddy and sweet just like he is with other friends like Rosie, Mimzy

Alastor is the type of ‘I’ll do something for you at the right price’ friend. Give him what he wants and he’ll do a favour for you, he may like you as a friend but he wants to establish that you’re just like his other friends and you’re not that special at all

“Ah. My dear, this Hotel and my home is for everybody, including yourself. Feel free to get comfortable and we can chat more later”

Romantic

Alastor knows of your intimacy and commitment problems, and since he really likes this cute small gun-wielding badass imp more than he could suspect, he is willing to wait for you to get more comfortable with and trusting of him. Hence what actually fires up the relationship you two share

Alastor is extremely protective over you: you’re a mortal demon, he’s immortal. You can die, he already died and now immune to fatal blows. And the fact you’re an assassin that takes care of humans as well. You have the Radio Demon on your beck-and-call, and goddamn, how glad you are that you’re dating Al. You have a loving, doting but also scolding and cautious boyfriend right there to save your flank

Alastor expresses his loyalty, love and respect through that way he acts around you, giving you whatever you want free of charge, gifting you all kinds of presents, constantly writing you name on random pieces of paper or even the Hotel walls, being smitten of you around the Hotel staff. He can’t get you out of his head

Alastor loves carrying you around. You’re so small but you’re so squishy and cuddly, day or night. He loves hugging you to his chest and carrying you around, you’re smaller than Niffty and he’s living for it! You can be asleep and he’ll keep wondering around with you in his arms bridal style

Alastor is half for I.M.P, half not. The reason he isn’t is because he doesn’t want this psycho humans laying their hands on you and the reason he is is because he loves seeing you happy and he wants you to express your passions so he tries his best to be as supportive as he can

Alastor may or may not be the one taking care of you. You let loose sometimes after bad situations and he is the one reassuring you he’ll always be there, he won’t let you die alone and he’ll always be with you. He loves you and he wants you happy and healthy

Alastor’s ideas of a romantic date is to a nice restaurant, all dressed-up and bonding over simple conversation. Yeah, he isn’t the most ‘interesting’ date-planner but his vanilla tastes are so much better than anybody could ever suspect. You bond with Alastor very well with every date

Alastor enjoys bragging about you. He brags about you on his radio show and even promotes your business, I.M.P. He is going to show who you belong to and he’ll even mark you more… physically, if he must. You’re his and he won’t let any chance that somebody will try to steal you away

Alastor is an affectionate boyfriend and when I mean affectionate, I mean lovey-dovey, complimentary and touchy. He loves giving you kisses, holding you in his lap, giving you hugs, holding your hand all the time. He loves holding you, you’re so sweet and cute

“Darling. You should be a lot more careful… I wouldn’t do well without you, so please. Do both of us a favour and do not charge into battle recklessly… please? For this poor lovestruck little deer?”

Alastor also might just try figure out how to make you immortal so you’ll stay with him for all of Hell’s time

[dentiststoothfairy]

hello! can i ask a norton,Aesop,and naib

with an s/o that got really hurt during a match like it injured the whole right side of there s/o face and also made their s/o loss there right eye? so like at first another survivor told them you got hurt so they went to you thinking you just got a scratch or something but they didn't expect to find there s/o in a puddle of their own blood holding the right side of there face because it got hit with a flare gun which exploded right when it hit the right side of there face,

(it's fine if you don't want to do this or your not comfortable writing it, that's fine but thanks for taking the time out of your day to read my request(⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

🟢 𝐍𝐀𝐈𝐁 𝐒𝐔𝐁𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐑 🟢

Accidents occasionally happen in the manor, which always gets on his nerves. It's just the soldier in him.

No room for mistakes with this one.

So when he found out you were in an accident with a flare gun, he was pretty pissed off.

THIS is why people can't afford to fuck up, anytime, any day. Because people like you get fucking hurt.

Cracking his knuckles for a totally unrelated reason guys don't worry.

Emily was pretty stern with him before letting him into her little nursing room that she made for injuries after matches.

Don't apply extra stress on the wound.

Allow for proper rest.

Don't let them apply for matches until their face is at LEAST 77% healed and that's if we're being generous.

As Emily listed off the rules, Naib just got more agitated.

Had something like. Actually gone wrong?

And once he saw you. Holy fucking shit.

Memories came flooding back.

It was like. Actively sort of triggering him. Looking at you like that.

As Emily applied the final bandages to your face to make sure you wouldn't get infected, he couldn't look at you.

Not that he thought you were ugly, no no. It was. Physically painful to see the one he utterly adored to be in that position.

A position his friends were in so long ago.

He tries to get you to rat out who did it. He just wants to talk.

Once the healing is done and it turns out you've lost an eye. He honestly feel sick, for you. Again, he isn't any less attracted to you. But it's. It's so raw for him. It takes him a while to feel okay.

He has war trauma guys.

🍩𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐎𝐍 𝐂𝐀𝐌𝐏𝐁𝐄𝐋𝐋 🍩

He's a little more careless than Naib, so when he heard about an accident in a duos match.. He didn't really bat an eye.

You were tough, he trusted you. Although, he'd still pretty fucking upset. Like. Come on. How the hell did that even happen in the first place? In fact, the news that an "accident" occurred kind of unnerved him.

And like Naib, Emily gave him a run down on how to treat the wound. Which he could only scoff at.

He knew how to treat a wound like that. Especially a facial wound.

*vaguely gestures to his face*

And. GOD. his reaction to your face.

FUCK DUDE.

It hurts him knowing that you've gone through the EXACT same thing that he has.

Unlike Naib, he doesn't struggle to look at you from guilt. No. He doubles down.

He's extra attentive to you, although he basically discards Emily's advice, he handles it in his own... Mr Mole sort of way.

⚰️ 𝐀𝐄𝐒𝐎𝐏 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐋 ⚰️

He's pretty expressionless on the daily. It's hard to read his eyes especially with the mask, so when someone br𝐪oke the news that something happened to you during a match.. It was hard to gauge his reaction.

Internally, he was pretty conflicted actually.

One half - was he finally allowed to preserve you for your beauty? No scar or scratch or anything could ever doubt your luminescence to him.

On the other half -

If you weren't already dead...

ARE YOU OKAY?

He was stressed, very stressed.

Anyways. He's actually not a germaphobe as one would expect from the gloves and the mask. So when Emily advised him to watch after you carefully, he listened cautiously.

Once he saw your face

He didn't flinch.

"Oh dear,... Poor [Y/N]...are you feeling alright?"

Probably the only time Emily saw him actually interact with someone like.. A normal human ngl.

Aesop doesn't blink twice.

When I say nothing could tear his eyes from you, I mean nothing.

Lost eye, half scarred face, burnt skin smelling like a chicken dinner.

He truly believes you are the most beautiful th. FINE. FINE. HE'LL PUT DOWN THE SYRINGE :((

U don't love him anymore.... And u hate him 😔 u want him dead /j

Headcanon - Tips & Tricks on how to date Sanzu Haruchiyo:

I just wrote this to cope with my unhealthy obsession with this fictional man. He's my absolute favorite TR baby, so forgive me for being shamelessly self indulgent! ...or don't.

If feminine terms of endearment and/or hinted hetero relationship trigger you for any reason, please skip this one. Cheers.

Haru is a lovebug, but that cannot be seen by just anyone. It requires a person with thick, and I mean: THICK nerves and patience to handle him right. He's prone to jealousy, he's headstrong, and he holds his grudges like Mikey's life directly depends on it!

If not handled properly, he will ghost you for days, try to make you jealous, be deliberately mean and controlling/manipulative, or in more extreme cases, turn full on yandere stalker on you! But all of that is triggered by his innate need to be loved and deeply, deeply rooted fear of being abandoned and being less than. So don't make him insecure!

It's highly recommended to build trust with him first, so if you guys start out by being genuine friends first, before you start dating, and then let the things develop naturally from there, there's a lot more chance that he'll open up to you and let you in, and he won't be as afraid of you leaving him or "betraying" him.

Seriously tho, don't leave him! He needs someone to love him, and to love back, way more than he realizes! He desperately needs someone to call "home", someone who will stay, who will accept him, and not judge him for who he is. And who he is deep down is just a soft little baby, that would do anything and everything for his loved one!

Until he gets properly comfortable with you and the fact that someone genuinely cares for him (which is a big challenge for him!) he may occaaionally act inconsistent (not messaging back for hours on end, standing you up for dates, being generally unavailable, etc.) It's either all due to his gang duties, fights, and devotion to Mikey, or simply just his struggle to adapt to love. But you can always be completely certain that he's not cheating!

Why? Because he's simply the type that falls in love for life, stays loyal and faithful even after death does you part (regardless of who dies first), and is so overprotective that it can be too much to deal with sometimes! ("Why is that ugly bitch over there giving you the side eye?! She wants me to explain to her who you are or what?!" - "No one talks like that to my Queen, I'm gonna rip his fucking skeleton apart!" etc.) And yeah, unless you stop him somehow, he will commit homicide just because someone stepped into your lane a bit too rudely for his taste.

Also, once you have successfully conquered his tattered, lonely heart, he would totally call you his Queen, and treat you as such as well. He's a lowkey simp, but a high key gentleman and super respectful in every sense of the word. His manners, albeit a little bit oldschool (legacy of having been brought up by his grandma and Takeomi), are always impeccable! If you didn't know better, you'd easily think he was some rich, spoiled, stuck-up "bocchan".

He'll be very reserved at the beginning of your dating, not exactly shy, but somewhat distant. But he'll never fail to open the door for you, move your chair for you, walk next to the car track making sure you're on the safer side, hold your coat for you or offer his if you don't have one, etc. But even holding hands will only happen after three dates or so.

And the first date is at Cozy Corner, and you guys are getting cheesecakes, it's just a fact, I don't make the rules! Once the relationship gets a bit more established it will become your monthly tradition.

On another negative side of dating Haru, however, be prepared to "share" him with Mikey! Although his attachment to Mikey is not romantic in nature, and Mikey isn't exactly someone to be jealous of in that sense, he will be a significant part of your relationship, as Haru will either talk incessantly about him, or flat our refuse to spend time with you because "Mikey needs him", and to him that is a perfectly valid reason.. But, if you (ideally) share, or (at least) understand his obsession with his King, and support his ambition to be Mikey's right hand man, he'll marry you, no joke!

* * * BONUS * * *

He used to be self conscious about his scars around you at first, not taking the mask off in front of you for 3 whole months of dating. You even "kissed" for the first time over the mask. When you asked him why he always wears it, he tried avoiding the subject at first, but when he realized he can trust you, he admitted he was afraid of your reaction when you see his face (you of course find him nothing less than drop dead gorgeous).

He hates PDA, but is quite affectionate in private, though never smothering. He'll hug you from behind when you're in the kitchen, randomly kiss your temple when you're cuddled up watching a movie together, he always speaks to you in a gentle, loving tone, he rubs small circles on the back of your hand with his thumb when holding hands, he always praises the food you make for him, he tries his best to learn to make your favorites, etc.

When the Kanto Manji-kai started getting seriously corrupted, he tried pushing you away, but you insisted on staying by his side no matter what, and he greatly appreciates you for that. Despite all, you are his safe haven.

In his KMK/early Bonten days, you half-jokingly asked him to teach you to use a sword. He taught you to play shōgi instead. It almost became a weekend tradition for the two of you. Since you started keeping scores, you've been in the lead with 139 wins, over his 137. (He may or may not have let you win on purpose, more than once.) You tease him that it's because he's such a good teacher.

As Bonten's 2nd in command, he's still as loyal to you as always, but you're never his first priority. It's Mikey and Bonten's business, and you know it. However, you can't say you haven't felt jealous of Mikey in some cases. Whenever Mikey calls, Haru will immediately leave, even mid-sex.

He always tries to make it up to you later if Mikey interrupted your time together, tho.

He avoids meeting you on the days when he's had to kill. Not just because he doesn't want to "taint" you, but also because he doesn't like himself when he's high. He'd rather wait for the drugs to wear off before meeting you. If you guys live together, then he'll just spend the day at the Bonten HQ instead.

Once you start living together, he's a godsent to have around the house! You don't have to do any cleaning ever again, his OCD kicks in and your apartment will always be spotlessly clean. He occasionally nags at you to be more tidy tho.

He's even more overprotective as an adult than he was as a teen. if you're going somewhere that is not owned by or affiliated with Bonten, and he can't go with you for whatever reason, you will unavoidably have two of his most trusted subordinates escort you and stay by your side at all times as your bodyguards. And no, he's not trying to contol where you go or what you do, (those two guys basically work for you, not him, at this point, anyway) he just won't leave anything to chance and risk you getting targetted by any of his numerous enemies when he's not around to protect you by himself. When the two of you are together out, he never leaves your side, and always has an arm around your waist or back.

[dragons-eat-people]

Season's Eatings

Christmas was always one of my favorite holidays, but even more so for my little brother, Everett. He's an absolute Christmas nut, having become obsessed with the holiday. He sings all the songs that the humans do around this time of year with a friend of his, a little French dragon named Wattson. He's a good kid, and the pair are rather inseparable.

Though, this little holiday tale isn't about the two little dragons. Ever heard the saying that "Christmas is about giving"? That's the little moral of this story. After all, the greatest gifts are the ones that wind up on your doorstep.

Our home, whether you'd like to call it Dragonland, or the Alterlands, which is the proper name...but it's separated into sectors. That's how the tribes are separated and such. In our sector, which is called Kulia Forest, we have a...lovely section that I named myself!

Bandit's Run.

The name is more literal than you think. Bandits, thieving humans love to scour own home for ancient treasures. This isn't particularly common during the winter, but...I think you can tell where I'm going with this.

One particular human so far has escaped me. The only exception, he was armed and I had Everett with me at the time, so he's just lucky. Though, you can only imagine the look on my face when an enemy I loathed appeared right on our doorstep...

The season's about giving. Thanks for giving yourself up to me. I pounced forward, latching onto his shoulders with my claws, pinning him down in the snow. He yells, instinctively, struggling against my grip and such. He manages to reach into his pocket, dammit. He still has his gun. My adversary managed to aim at me, clenching his hand around the grip and trigger.

He shoots.

The bullet...misses. What a shame. He curses, right as I wrestle the firearm out of his hands. Here comes the fun part. I smirk voraciously as I open my maw, quick to shove him inside. His screams turn muffled as he enters my mouth, sliding towards the back of my maw, down my throat. My esophagus bloats with his form, sinking down the abyss that was myself. I swallow him in one go, relishing in my prey's frantic kicking and shoving as he travels to my stomach.

My belly expands a bit, and I can already feel the wriggling too. What a treat. I stand smug over my prey, before being caught off guard by a lone voice. One too familiar, but the situation alone is enough to send a chill down my spine. I don't spook easily.

"Sis? Are you alright?" My little brother calls me, walking to the front door to meet me there. I stand up, turning back to see him. His gaze was soft and thoughtless, such an innocent being. I laugh softly, approaching him. "Yes, little one. It's Christmas, you shouldn't be awake this early...did the noise wake you?" I ask, enveloping his little being. I wrap my tail around him, lifting the little dragonet up with ease. Shutting the cold out, the door closes behind us once we're both inside. I navigate the dark room to find our couch, bringing Everett along with me. All the while, my prey is fighting me from within, and I just hope he doesn't notice. We lay down together, almost cuddling.

Everett nestles into my fur without a word. He sighs, closing his eyes. Perhaps he's too disoriented to take in the fact that I've devoured someone, and my belly is a noisy mess. I shake my head. Even if he does know, it doesn't particularly matter. I lean forward, nuzzling him with my snout.

"Merry Christmas."

To all of you as well, thank you so much for all the support here on this blog of mine. I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and a very safe holiday. I'm looking forward to what I'll have planned in the coming year of 2024 too. I will be announcing the start of new blogs as well, so stay tuned for that announcement, probably within the coming week or the next. Once again, thanks for everything. Your support is what drives me, and I couldn't ask for a better gift for the holidays.~

Unless...some of you are feeling bold and would like to be stocking stuffers? I can dine on wonderous little treats such as yourselves, and maybe a few candy canes too~

[cannibalisedthoughts]

Today’s Reminder (tw for mentions of suicide, and lots of abelism as well as seizures)

Fake claiming is always wrong, and it is especially wrong when you do it behind someone’s back and to their friends. It is especially wrong to use someone’s genuine concern for their health, their right to ask questions to get answers as a reason to claim they are faking.

This post goes out to the person I used to be friends with, and trusted who fakeclaimed my bipolar behind my back because we didn’t share the exact same symptoms.

To the same person, who told my best friend that I was faking the fact I may potentially have seizures because “the questions they’re asking sound nothing like seizures”

The likelihood of them seeing this is low, but if by some miracle they do I just want them to know how much damage they caused by sending those texts to my best friend.

She read those to me the other night, and just hearing those two things ripped me apart so much that I barely slept that night.

Your words destroyed me J.C.

It makes it worse that you have misgendered me to my two closest friend as well, misgendered me despite only knowing me as he or they SIMPLY because you know I’m transgender.

I am disgusted in how you can treat someone like this. I trusted you.

For those wondering why I seem more upset about these things than feels warranted allow me to list everything this person has done to me since I became friends with them.

Suicide baited me, forced me to check on their girlfriend because he refused to text her after announcing he was going to kill himself

Misgendered me to two of my best friends (who very much refused to do the same)

Fakeclaimed me

Tried to undermine my struggles because they weren’t presenting the same as his

Broke several of my boundaries and then tried using one of their disorders as an excuse

Guilted us for expressing a boundary made because of a very serious trauma

Made his trauma the only trauma allowed to be valid in the group by constantly reminding us of what he went through

Sending us pictures of something someone said about us, that caused trauma responses. These images were sent unsolicited

Telling us we were a bad friend for not being able to communicate MID PANIC ATTACK

Spreading lies about us, making us out to be a villain

Involving us in situations where we couldn’t be safely involved such as when someone they no longer wanted to associate with started to stalk him.

Creating an atmosphere in the friendship group that meant nobody felt safe to talk about their struggles.

Invading my friends’ privacy and dismissing her trauma as nothing serious.

Doubling down when they were corrected on misinformation (doubling down means they continued to aggressively insist they were correct)

Saying our migraines could not cause neurological symptoms, that it was impossible

Making us feel lesser to them because we’re still waiting for an autism diagnosis

Making us feel bad because we cannot treat our depressive episodes

Triggering our tics. Constantly and without remorse.

And that is merely half the list.

[fluffypotatey]

Hello there! I hope the month is treating you alright. Speaking of impending breakdowns, with a full guarantee of MK having one coming soon, aside from him who else do you think will be getting one amongst the Monkie crew, from earliest to the latest? Macaque is shockingly doing well comparatively because he's been having one the entire show and only started to wind down and process it s4 while the other two monkeys are just piling them up. I am fully biased towards SWK so I'd like to know your thoughts on what an SWK breakdown would look like and what would trigger it, and if we might see it any time soon.

I think the reason on why an MK vs SWK fight makes me full of nervous dread is because i worry it might mean full rejection of MK towards SWK, after all the trials they have been through, and that SWK haven't had someone fully believing in him for so long so i worry he might interpret it as MK finally giving up on him, like the others did. But I'm holding on to the hope that it's not entirely the case, MK still believes in him, he just wants SWK to actually use his words and TALK to him, extreme force needed. But that might just be me.

Regarding the Samadhi Fire incident, do you think the other pilgrims ever find out about the fourth ring, or did Ao Lie and SWK kept it a secret between them only? I've read Dr. Chalk's comic on twitter, and one of their comics headcanon that Ao Lie didn't tell the rest of the pilgrims about the Samadhi fire in him because he's afraid they'll blame SWK for it. What do you think?

That's it for now. Sleep early, eat your meals regularly, and drink plenty of water!

ok 1) lmao true, Macky's spent most of s3 on the brink and s1&2 is just him projecting so yeah lmao (love him tho). and aside from MK, i think Mei is a huge contender for the breakdown category. Or Tang bc he was super anxious throughout s4. (imma go more in-depth about MK & SWK at the end of this post tho)

imma answer your Samadhi Fire question first: tbh i was originally inclined to believe that Ao Lie did try to keep the knowledge of the 4th ring underwraps for a long time (bc the angst is very fun). if he told SWK, he knew the monkey would blame himself. if he told the jttw crew, it would upset all of them. it's like how @lunar-wandering said in their post that Ao Lie is probably someone who would hide his injuries and troubles because if it is known, it is viewed as a weakness others can target.

then again, i doubt Ao Lie would withhold his physical injuries to the jttw gang because he trusts them, so it could be possible that he did tell them, but they all agreed to keep that secret between themselves. the AGAIN, i highly doubt Ao Lie would share his reasons for being exiled by his family, so he never told them until he felt he could no longer keep it together.

however, keep in mind that Wukong was aware of the 4th ring even in his amnesiac state. he was still with the jttw gang by this point, it was after the journey, and Wukong was aware. tbh, he sounded like he thought Pigsy was also aware, like he was reminding his companion that there are 4 rings not 3.

and, with that....imma have to go with Ao Lie did inform his friends but only his friends. was it immediately after the ritual? i doubt that. my opinion is that Ao Lie informed only after everyone in the group noticed a key change in their dragon-horse friend.

now, my beloved sunburst duo <3

i'm going to have to disagree with you, bestie. i don't think the MK vs SWK fight will to any full rejection. rather, i believe it will give both characters some form of understanding for the other. MK, as we have seen, has trouble separating Wukong from the hero pedestal he placed his mentor on. while he is more aware of the fact that Wukong has flaws and isn't perfect, he is still struggling with acknowledging the fact that his mentor did very bad things in his past, that he hurt people, that he is still hurting people (tho not intentionally). we see it with how he fought Ink!MK who unveiled those very dark and reclusive anxieties of his that he never wishes to acknowledge. we even saw it with how defensive MK can be over Wukong with Macaque and Azure.

on the flip side, SWK did not begin their mentorship with the intention of getting attached. he started this because he knew MK's potential and power, and it is very likely that he was aware that MK was a possible replacement for himself. Wukong keeps his distance in s1, only training the kid and taking his time to do so because he while he doesn't want to get close, he does want to ensure that MK will not fall into the same mistakes he did. unfortunately (for Wukong), the monkey grows attached.

Wukong sees MK's drive to train and be better and sees his own self reflected in it. but, again, he doesn't want MK to be like him. he wants MK to be a better version. a version that never thought to extend his life out of fear of losing his usefulness, a version that never tries to push his friends into situations they may not feel comfortable with, a version that does not feel the need to prove himself to Heaven.

honestly, my concept of their fight/breakdown will come to the fact that both MK and SWK fail to communicate their exact fears, anxieties, and intentions towards the other. MK feels like he can't even talk or vent to Wukong because that's his idol, and Wukong has brushed aside MK's anxieties in the past (MK's worries about Spider Queen for example. also i'm not saying Wukong does this with any malice intent; rather, it's his own way of trying to be optimistic. it just doesn't land well for MK unfortunately). Wukong feels like he can't open up because he sees the way MK looks up to him, he is very aware of his public image and reputation because...you know, he's immortal and has seen his and his friend's stories be told over centuries :)

and while Wukong has attempted to open up to MK post-s3, it's very slow and (more irritatingly) the plot isn't allowing them to have those private talks where they can hash out their shit.

(noooOOOOoooooOOO, swk had to be sucked into a cursed scroll and live through his worst memories, distorted or not, and MK had to be told by another old friend of his mentor that Wukong doesn't care enough about his friends to stay)

therefore, it looks like the only way both characters will even get a chance to air-out their issues will be shouting at each other, throwing physical blows, and maybe crying at each other (i hope so :3 i wanna see swk cry on screen please!)

HOWEVER: while this could lead to the 2 of them needing space with each other (which could lead to both or either of them spiraling about how the other person's rejected them and doesn't want them in their lives anymore), i highly doubt that this fight will be the end of their relationship. frankly, i think it will help give both characters some perspective on the other, work on themselves, and come back with new outlooks & healthier minds (maybe)

so yeah, those are my thoughts :)

FE OC Week - Day 5/6 - Joy/Supports @fe-oc-week

I'm a bit behind but I will get there eventually.

Name: Regulus

Other Details:

Regulus has Supports with 10 individuals, many having different focuses from explaining parts of his personality and upbringing to questioning his ideals and beliefs. His prejudice shows up more than once, he is a flawed being but he learns that his conduct and thoughts are wrong (if this is triggering in any way skip any support that means prejudice in its summery).

There are also more tame ones where he makes friends and does hobbies. These supports would be where Regulus finds most of his joy doing things he loves with those he appreciates or well loves.

As a character, Regulus is neurodivergent coded, he hyper-focuses, has fixations and often struggles with things and I hope throughout his supports this would be noticed or addressed and others learn this part about him.

Supports

Alear

Focus - Regulus’ convoluted plans and obsession with schedules. How they can sometimes be a hindrance and that to live in the moment. Alear learns why they are so important to him and they find a compromise.

(Below is the wake up events so I have done them instead of support dialogue)

Lindon

Focus – Shared love of magic and experiments. Accidents happen. Lindon acts as a fatherly figure and explains things about this life and that Regulus reminds him of his children.

Lindon: "Let’s say we go back to the drawing board. Maybe a new hypothesis... Green didn’t work. How about pink, my boy?"

Regulus: "If anyone asks... I was in the Ring Room this afternoon. I certainly was not helping you try to change the colour of Elthunder... Or setting two trees on fire in the process."

L: "I won’t say a word if you don’t, young Regulus."

(Vandar chasing after them in the background)

R: "My Father never accepted the magic part of me... I don't know what he would say if he saw me now..."

L: "He would see a great Mage in the making... And if he wasn't proud of that fact then he is a fool."

Ivy

Focus – Sharing opinions on Elusia, Sombron and King Hyacinth. Regulus giving his unwavering loyalty to Ivy and Elusia once the War is over.

Regulus: (talking very fast) "Princess Ivy. Princess Ivy... I am so happy and proud you are here with us. That the crown Princess dines to battle with such commoners and with rival nations. I got to fight by your side in the last battle. I cannot believe it..."

Ivy: "Regulus! It is Regulus, correct? I may be a Princess but in this Army I am just another soldier fighting this war. There are other Royalty amongst us."

R: "But you are the Princess of my country. Is there anything I can do to help? Or improve your stay. I could plan out your days and-"

I: "That's enough. Please. Treat me as you would any other. When you have calmed down and prepared to do as such, you can speak to me again."

R: "Ivy, I would like to talk to you, if I may?"

I: "Yes, Regulus?"

R: "My conduct was unfitting last we spoke. So, I would like to start again. I was over-excited. But I have had time to sit and think."

I: "Oh? Then you may."

R: "I am proud to be an Elusian. To have walked the streets of the Capital... But I worry there is so little left of the soul of our country. I wanted to talk to someone about it... I'm at a loss. I thought you may understand that."

I: "Oh... That is something I deeply think about. When the War is over how much of Elusia will be left. Will I even have any subjects to try to help after all this."

R: "If I may... I would like to help you rebuild. I have skills that could be useful... I want the country that accepted me to know I will do anything to help it."

I: "Then, I will rely on your help to see Elusia into a new dawn."

Zelkov

Focus – Discussing the need to always be busy. He helps make Zelkov a hobby schedule and organises his hobby sanctum. Zelkov and Regulus learn to respect one another and hang around Zelkov's sanctum.

Regulus: "I've noticed you always keep busy, Zelkov. Your name is usually one of the most present on the chore schedules... Yet, you don't seem the most helpful of individuals. You don't do it out the Goodness of your own heart... So, why is that?"

Zelkov: "My mind never sleeps. I keep busy, least my mind wanders into *dangerous* territory."

R: "Huh... That's kind of familiar. If I don't have my plans... My thoughts can get overwhelming. But you know you should schedule in sleep. I have a feeling you don't sleep much."

Z: "Sleep doesn't come *easy* to me... Maybe I should tell you the same thing. I do not believe you *schedule* yourself enough yourself."

R: "Maybe you're right... Maybe we both need to optimise our schedules to help ourselves."

R: "This place is amazing. So many things. So much to do... It's a little overwhelming honestly."

Z: "That is a word... I've never *thought* to describe it as."

R: "But would you mind terribly if I could organise it for you? At least a little bit?"

Z: "Would you damage or throw away my things?"

R: "No. 'Course not, Zelkov. This place should be treasured. I just think it needs a system."

Z: "Would it make you *happy* to do so?"

R: "Immensely."

Z: "Then you may."

Hortensia

Focus – Telling Regulus’ need to “lighten up” and take a moment for himself to not plan. They spend an evening causing none planned trouble.

Hortensia: "Hey Regulus. Why you so obsessed with all these organising things? You can't organise every second of your life!"

Regulus: "Ah, hello Princess Hortensia... Can I help you?"

H: "Yeah, by putting down the notebooks and schedules and living a li'l. You can't have all that ruling your life."

R: "Oh... I find they give structure and are helpful to myself and others. Say, maybe I could help you use your time more efficiently?"

H: "Ugh, no. I live my life minute by minute. I don't need a plan to tell me what to do next."

Gregory

Focus – Gregory’s bad experiences of Elusia vs Regulus’ good ones and they both come to a compromise that there are good and bad things about their homeland.

Regulus: "Hey Gregory... Fellow Mage and Elusian. Look, we have so much in common. We should be friends!"

Gregory: "Ah! Ermm... Hello, Regulus... I don't really know if we do have that much in common."

R: "What? Really? I thought they were good building blocks. Do you not want to speak to me?"

G: "No, no. It's not that but you seem to like 'love' Elusia. But... It has not been kind to me. I don't think we have similar experiences, so..."

R: "Oh... If you don't mind, naybe you could tell me about the bad... And when the War is over I can help change Elusia for the better. I could tell you the good things it has done too? Maybe make you more proud of your Home."

G: "Huh... I donno. But it's worth a shot. Maybe... You could dail down the enthusiasm, it's making me a little nervous."

Citrinne

Focus – Discussion on magic and the need to always be better. Also, Brodia’s vs Elusia’s stance on magic. Regulus' experience with magic when he was younger. Regulus'' mild prejudice comes up again.

Regulus: "Competent with magic and Brodian. You must be a Noble."

Citrinne: "Yes, I am. What gave it away?"

R: "Commoners don't learn magic in Brodia. They don't get the privilege."

C: "I never thought about it that way... But I have met a few mages in the Army, so I think you may be wrong."

R: "Well, I was never given the choice when Brodia came knocking on my doorstop. I had to hide trying to learn magic. I bet you never had that problem!"

R: "Citrinne, that spell you did last battle... It was impressive. You got many out of a bad situation."

C: "Why thank you. Oh, it is you, Regulus. I thought I was just a 'privileged priss' that only got everything due to my status."

R: "Well... I can still recognise someone who has talent. I thought to give credit where credit is due."

C: "Hmm... I think we need a proper conversation. I need an apology from you and then maybe we can try this all again. If that apology is good enough I could even tell you how I came up with that spell."

R: "I... I misjudged you, Citrinne. I have noticed your insecurities in your position. That for a Brodian you feel weak. That is not true though. You are strong. And... I am so very sorry for my past words."

C: "You are much more perceptive than I thought you were. I accept your apology should you stay civil."

R: "That is all I ask."

Alcryst

Focus – Regulus' mistrust and prejudice of Brodia and it's Royal line. Alcryst helps him in a battle with the Corrupted and shows him he is just a normal person, and Regulus changes his mind.

Regulus: "Why are you trying to speak to me? Why even look at me? You’re a Prince of Brodia and I’m from a rival nation. I want nothing to do with you or your people."

Alcryst: "Oh... Sorry. I won’t look at you... Or talk, if you don't want me to. Would you rather you spoke to Diamant? He’s better at this stuff. What do you mean rival nation? I... I don’t know what you want. Sorry."

R: "Did you not hear...huh? Why are you apologising?"

A: "Because I’m obviously not good or powerful enough to be able to talk to you... So sorry. I don't meet your standards."

R: "I don’t understand you, Prince Alcryst."

R: (on the battlefield) "This is looking bad. Where did that Firenese knight go? I'm not getting out of this easily."

A: "Uh, Regulus, look out." (Shoots a Corrupted that got too close)

R: "Is that? Prince Alcryst, why are you helping me?"

A: "As you are someone in need. I did what I could, as little as that is."

R: "But I'm Elusian...?"

A: "That doesn't matter right now... We need to get out alive first."

R: (After battle) "You saved my life, Prince. I never thought a Brodian would help me."

A: "I did it as you're an ally, and you don't deserve to be killed just because you are from Elusia."

"You didn't kill my Father or invade my Home. Why would I... Well, hate you?"

R: "Because well... Wait? You don't hate me when I treated you poorly."

A: "No... I thought I must of done something to deserve it anyway."

R: "I wronged you... I am sorry, Alcryst. You didn't deserve my scorn. And you really shouldn''t sell yourself so short. That was a good shot out there. It saved my life."

A: "Oh... Thank you. It was, wasn't it?"

R: "Oh, yes. You should be proud of your skills."

Clanne

Focus– Regulus helps Clanne implement a better schedule and talks about siblings. Mainly Framme’s very disorganised lifestyle. Framme shows up in the supports.

Regulus: "I have noticed that you, Clanne, are one of the most organised people on this island. However, your twin, is frankly terrible. You are polar opposites..."

C: "Haha, yeah. She gets distracted a lot. I pick up a lot of the slack."

R: "Hmm... You shouldn’t have to. I have an idea: What if we were to say... Try improve her productivity? Experiment a little: try some new schedules, give her some different tasks and test her progress. It would be less work for you and the others."

C: "I guess it couldn’t hurt. I have been really busy since Framme forgot to do some chores yesterday."

R: "Then it’s settled. Operation: 'Improve Framme’s Productivity' starts tomorrow! It’s a working title."

Boucheron

Focus – Regulus is sent to find a lost Boucheron. They discover a shared love of reading and start a book club.

Regulus: "Ah, Boucheron. There you are. Everyone has been looking for you."

Boucheron: "Oh... Hey there, Regulus. I got lost again."

R: "But we are simply a 5 minutes walk in that direction. You can see and hear us? How did you manage to get this lost?!"

B: "I’ve just never been very good with directions. I get lost really easily. I get lost on the Somniel still."

R: "You couldn’t find yourself out of a wet paper bag, could you, poor dear? Fine. I will make you a series of maps. We can’t have you getting lost every 5 minutes."

B: "Oh... (Sniffling) this bit of the story always gets me."

R: "Hey. Don't spoil it! I haven't read it before. Let me catch up. Your crying gives it away!"

B: "Oh no. I'm spoiling your fun. But the book is really good."

R: (laughing, affectionate) "Oh, you sensitive oaf. A few tears won't spoil the story but don't announce it. I want the intrigue. The surprise."

B: "Yeah. It's nice I get to share this with you. Alfred and Etie well, they don't sit still long enough to appreciate a good story."

R: "I'll always put some time aside for a good read and company. Don't you worry."

Wake-Up Events:

C1:

“Divine One, I’ve been added to your numerous waking up assistants... Sir Vander seems to have recruited the whole Army for the task. Surely it would be easier just to have a set select few.”

“Do you not think it’s inefficient as well? Oh, you weren’t listening... Well, we can table it for now. Good morning.”

Awakened Early – “You awakened easily now... Why do you even need someone to help you? I’ll leave you to it.”

C2:

“Ah, Divine Dragon. Time is wasting, you know? I have things to do myself. Oh, do wake up already!”

“Ah, there you are. I will take my leave then... Actually, would making you an improved schedule help? I can do that for you.”

Awakened Early – “Oh. You’ve awoken early? Perfect. Now stick to it.”

B1:

Divine One, I made that schedule you wanted?! Ah, still asleep I see. Maybe we need to develop a spell or something... Maybe to zap you at the appropiate time. It would save you needing a person to awaken you each day.”

“Ah, you do not look impressed with my wonderful idea. I’ll be leaving then...”

Awakened Early – “What do you think, a zappy wake up spell? No? I thought it was a good idea.”

B2:

“Divine One, I have been in your library and I must say it’s... Divine One? How are you asleep at this moment?”

“Napping will only affect your sleep schedule, you know. Now, about the library...”

Awakened Early – “Divine One, just daydreaming I see. Now.... I was on about the library... You have so many tombs and magical knowledge...”

A1:

“I’ve been thinking about what you said: That I cannot plan every single thing in my life. That no one can... It is correct, I know this... But I would like have my plans to fall back on nevertheless. For if the worst ever happens, I need structure or I'll... Nevermind.”

“Oh... You heard all that...? Well, I’m going to leave. Good morning, Divine Dragon.”

Awakened Early – “Hmm...? Was I saying something important? No, nothing to worry about. Now you are awake, I will take my leave.”

A2:

“You slept for so long and still you sleep alike the dead, unending yet peaceful... So silent. If you were to never awaken again. The world would crumble. My plans would crumble... We all would crumble.”

“Ah... You were listening all along? What a sneak, you are. No, no... I’m not going to elaberate. Good day.”

Awakened Early – “Good morning, Divine One. Forgive the commentry, I just feel today is an interesting day.”

Gift Dialogue:

(I very much enjoy writing dialogue or options that could be in the game so...)

Favourite – “Absolutely wonderful. How long have you spent planning this gift? Thank you, Divine One.” (Philosophy Book, Fairy-Tale Book)

Liked – “For me? Thank you, I will use it well.” (Utility knife, History of Elyos)

Disliked – “Such an distinguished gift... Better for someone else.” (Training weights, Spooky Scroll)

Manure – “What are your plans with that? I see no reason to have it... Wait? I do not want it!”

[blue-cheeseinmyoffwhites]

Ok wow I just had like the biggest revelation and omg guys just hear me out—

So a blogger did a wonderful take on Eddie’s panic attacks during this season and they made a very amazing observation.

During the air traffic attack (5x01), the paramedics treat a man named Nick who is suffering from a heart attack (add that to the season 5 heart motifs) but there is a very odd part in the scene where we see Eddie with a very concerning look on his face while he’s looking at the guy. The music that plays implies that Eddie is having a small panic attack before Chimney snaps him out of it. Why does this happen you may ask? Well see for yourself

The guy. His hair. His face shape. His white collared shirt. He looks VERY INTENTIONALLY similar to Buck, specifically on the day Eddie got shot

Now we know from that episode that Eddie asks if Buck was hurt after seeing his blood on him, completely ignoring the fact that he literally got shot himself. Even while bleeding out, Eddie still worried about Buck’s safety. This comes back to haunt him in 5x01 when he sees a man with the same face and clothes as Buck that day almost dying (and it’s 100% CERTAIN that he was thinking about Buck because he appears to look at the man’s shirt first, and what other reason would there be for him to notice the clothing first if he didn’t sense the resemblance).

“Ok cool so what?” You may ask. First of all, awww. The fact that the image of Buck on that specific day is etched into his mind that he thinks about him whenever someone looks slightly similar to him is so sweet yet so tragic. After being hit by a bullet, all Eddie could see throughout that ENTIRE encounter was Buck in that white shirt. Covered in blood. Eddie knew he got shot, but he also thought that Buck was hit too (“are you hurt?”).

Back to the panic attack (which Eddie has a LOT of this season) the trigger this time around was that he saw someone resembling Buck almost dying, making him think back to the day he thought Buck was hurt (interesting editing choice: the screen gets blurry when Nick’s face is shown, because Eddie doesn’t see Nick in that moment, he sees Buck). Which is why later during the same scene, he consciously puts a hand on Buck’s shoulder (his favorite place) to make sure he was ok and here with him. To make sure he wasn’t the one dying.

So what we can take from THIS moment is that part of Eddie’s trauma of being shot involves the horrified look on his best friend’s face and the thought of him also perishing with him.

Which brings us to 5x13, when Eddie finds out that his army friends, the ones he thought he saved, are all dead. And obviously this sends him down a spiral of emotions

Being in the army makes you establish a sense of camaraderie (friendship/closeness) with your fellow soldiers. Eddie really cherished those friendships despite not talking to them for years. So we know how much meaningful relationships actually MEAN to Eddie. Cue Buck, who is the closest friend Eddie has right now. The fact that Eddie makes Buck Christopher’s legal guardian speaks for itself. He trusts and values him with the same amount of trust and value he had with his soldier friends. Which is why he is comfortable enough to let Buck see his pain.

While we were all distracted about Buck’s fear of being abandoned, we never even thought about it from Eddie’s perspective. His ex wife? Dead. His friends? Gone. Ana? Bye. His parents? Kinda assholes (who also threatened to take Christopher away from him). Eddie has been struggling this entire time to not be alone. The call about his soldier friends was basically his breaking point and now he is scared that important people in his life will fade away from him.

So how does this come full circle?

Now I know basically EVERYONE is hoping we get a scene where Eddie worries for Buck the same way Buck does for him, whatever that scenario may be, but looking at what we have, it’s almost inevitable. There would be no reason for that particular part of the scene in 5x01 to be implemented unless it would come back in the future (maybe in the finale). Which ultimately means: something will happen to Buck, and Eddie will absolutely panic. And something tells me it will be MUCH worse than when Buck panics about him. Because he thinks he’s about to lose someone else close to him. He can’t afford it. Because just as much as Buck is afraid of losing Eddie, Eddie is afraid of losing Buck.

Or something idk

@canonicallyobserving911 thx for the idea

#thx for reading #now I’ll go bury myself #kinda cried making this cuz like #their friendship is so pure #they’ll do anything for each other #buddie #buddie ship #buddie 911 #buck x eddie #911 fox #911 show #evan buckley #eddie diaz #buckley diaz family #buddifer #salad = buddie

[anotherexistingbeing]

Reborn primordial headcannon dump:

A king's last hope/A warrior's internal conflict/A reincarnation's path

After the whole "sealing powers away from a 12yr cub that was basically going insane, The cub didn't want Wukong to touch them or anyway cuz they were pretty angry and upset

Wukong thought he could leave the cub to some alone time but later on when he tried to pick them up(because it started raining), he saw they weren't in the same spot and panicked a bit before using his golden vision to zoom around to find them

Wukong from afar saw 12yr Kito being taken care of by Ao Bing and the kid actually being a bit happy for the first time in 6 years, Wukong had some time to reflect on how his parenting skills were and upon thinking it over

He decided not to retrieve Kito and instead give them up, At least he put the restraints on Kito so they wouldn't hurt themselves as well as anyone around them in the near future

When Kito uses too much power and especially at once, they have a high chance to physically hurt themselves pretty bad

Externally or internally, the injuries could be fatal and if not treated could lead to death, So you could save Wukong saved their life a bunch of times which is something Kito didn't understand for a long while

______

We already know he's the type to watch from afar and upon seeing Kito actually growing up and getting better via health, emotionally and mentally speaking, it actually pains him that he mostly failed as a dad but his love for Kito never wavered

It's hard seeing someone you cared about so much end up doing better without you and the moment you get a chance to attempt to be close to them again, it doesn't always go so well

Upon Kito's perspective, They don't like Wukong but they don't hate him(same with Macaque)

They still have memories of the two simians in their childhood where Macaque actually cared (he still does he just thinks he hides it well, his hatred for Wukong overshadowed that love though) and the king who loved too hard too fast Wukong still has those habits of physical contact like a hug or a simply paw on the shoulder, ECT.

But he always gets bonked by Kito who showed on multiple occasions that they are not close/not comfortable with that buddy buddy act

(same goes with Macaque cuz he does the buddy buddy act too)

_______

Now what causes more a problem between Mac and Kito is that Mac knows Kito can act like Wukong when triggered correctly, We all know Macaque likes seeing Wukong pissed af and the fact Kito tends to pull off that same personality sometimes causes Mac to always. Piss. Off. The. Cub.

Or at least he tries to, So far Macaque only triggered Kito badly when it came to Red son's safety in the past(cuz Kito looked like they were bouta kill Macaque on the spot, Lbd's voice trying to encourage the cub's yang side but Kito has stupidly high self control)

Moving back to Wukong and Kito's relationship, Wukong gets worried a lot because not only does Kito struggle with morals and stuff but also they tend to show Macaque's manipulative and bitter side

As in "let's fight right now, seeing you makes me upset" sort of deal, When Wukong sees this side pop up he tries dismissing both him and Kito from conversing further until Kito calms down

But Kito has those negative tendencies to provoke and fight Wukong (especially for the shit he pulled with the gang in lmk)

______

Kito is the type to struggle with letting go of things of the past, Hence why they have grown to be so bitter despite the MEGA amount of training and lessons they went through

Sadly enough, Kito is a neutral character who only reacts depending if injustice they connect with occurs, family or friends get threatened or if they even care if a problem arises

Despite everything they tried to learn and stuff they had been through, 414 years later and they still never got the crown off their head

The inability to actually be what they are expected to has always crushed them and they even tell guanyin that despite their efforts, they can't be what everyone expected them to be

They're no better than the simians they have issues with nor will they ever complete this training, They're accepting the crown as part of their life as well as the Qiankun hoop

"I am many things but a child of heaven is not one of them, I resign being it's student."

_____

Are they a hero?

Are they a villain?

They don't know themselves, The expectation to know exactly who they are is something they always disliked, they're just someone with a butt load of trauma who's still figuring things out and come to accept that it doesn't matter how long it's gonna take anymore

Settling down with people they care about is all they ever wanted

aro/ace picard

disclaimer: i have not yet seen picard season 2. will i? probably. i don’t have high expectations though. i am a tng stan, first and foremost. tng was the first trek show i watched all the way through. the first trek show i really followed and understood and connected with. and i really appreciated and enjoyed picard and his style of captaincy. i am not alone in this.

so i’ve been rewatching tng. and something’s jumping out at me: i get hella aro/ace vibes from picard!

consider:

1. picard is not comfortable around kids

okay, this isn’t exclusive to aro/ace people. it’s not even something that every aro/ace person experiences. however, as someone on the ace spectrum, i do have this aversion.

because it’s not really about the kids, is it? it’s about the role society expects you to play, and how kids fit into that. the assumption people make about you and your future.

in “bloodlines,” picard struggles to bond with his supposed “son” jason. it’s awkward. picard is uncomfortable and stressed and he looks pretty triggered, actually. it’s been stated many times throughout the show that he just doesn’t “feel comfortable” around children, which is a problem considering that the Enterprise D carries a civilian crew.

picard’s interactions with wesley are also good examples of this. picard just... doesn’t know what to do with wesley? he can’t treat wesley like a little kid, because wesley’s too smart for that and cannot be contained in that manner, but picard can’t treat wesley like an adult, because wesley’s not an adult, and isn’t nearly emotionally mature to act like one. and beverly keeps pushing picard into a mentor/father role with wesley, and picard keeps trying to get out of it. he doesn’t know how to deal with kids. he knows how to interact with a crew, not kids. this is why he eventually makes wesley an acting ensign (why?? not important, but still).

if picard is asexual, that could explain his hesitancy around kids. he doesn’t want to be a father. he doesn’t want to be a husband. (again, this is not exclusive to aro/ace people, but i do think it’s important to note. especially after tos and james “bisexual” kirk).

the point is, picard is a very goal-oriented man. the fact that marriage and children is not and has never been in his life plan is very telling.

2. picard’s relationship with beverly

oof. a doozy, this one.

i don’t know why this relationship is so strange. i mean, i do. beverly’s dead husband was friends with picard. and the writers of tng kept trying to tease a romance between picard and beverly, but it never really got it’s groove. this is partly on wesley, i think, but it seems irresponsible to blame a fictional child when there’s a whole writers room of adults who could take the fall.

beverly keeps trying(?) to initiate a relationship (romantic and/or sexual) with picard, but he never takes her up on it. the subtext that the writers are giving us is that picard has guilt that prevents him from pursuing a relationship with beverly. but i don’t think that works, really?

first, it doesn’t really seem like picard’s comfortable expressing romantic feelings towards beverly. she gets on his ass all the time about wesley, and he doesn’t like that. he doesn’t want to replace her husband, and not just because he (might) feel guilty about his death. picard likes beverly, clearly, and maybe he even loves her. but he’s not in love with her. they’re good friends, and picard appreciates beverly, but he doesn’t pine for her. i can’t recall a single longing stare that couldn’t be written off as, “he likes his friend!”

(and i mean that in the most wholesome way. friendship is not lesser than romance.)

except for maybe the dixon hill hologram episode “the big goodbye”. but in that episode, picard is playing a character, so i think he’s just being the theatre kid we all know he is.

i know they got married in the novels. and supposedly have a son? i’m just saying, i don’t believe it. i don’t think it lines up with the characters at all. and i don’t think picard’s hesitation towards fatherhood or marriage is something that needs to be “fixed.” 

3. picard and data

this friendship gives me life. it’s an actual bromance, not a <3 bromance <3.

picard and data hang out together! they trust each other! they learn to understand each other! they share hobbies, like detective stories and hologram programs. 

throughout tng, picard becomes a mentor figure for data. picard teaches data about “human things:” small talk, emotions, affection. but data teaches picard things, too. maybe things that picard had labelled “non-human.” maybe data shows picard that it’s okay if he doesn’t feel things that he thinks he should. 

because ultimately, that’s what data’s character is for. data is autistic, and also aro/ace. he’s there to teach the audience. but he’s also teaching picard.

(interestingly, picard is a pretty good father figure to data. found family!)

4. picard and q

think of q as the anti-data. he tries to force picard to embrace the “human” side of himself. q is the embodiment of “don’t you just want to go apeshit?” he tells picard that the power of the q continuum could take him anywhere, so he could do anything. what does q bribe picard with? is it sex and power, like he’d tempted riker with?

nope. q says picard could go back in time and see some hella cool ruins. and friends, picard is tempted by that!

but of course, picard says no. he denies q time and time again. picard’s content with what he has -- a job he loves, with a crew he loves. picard doesn’t want anything else (except maybe to work through his trauma...).

anyway. this is incoherent, but i had a point.

aro/ace picard!

What happened to your room mates?

I have decided it was a case of bad timing and bad luck, with human error pulling both of those things forwards like a sleigh. I still think everyone is doing what they think the right thing to do is. Eat my ass about it. There was a lot of things that piled on top of all of it. I had started to have PTSD in regards to the men who groomed me, and I was trying to focus my attention to anything else. That, paired with me asking for advice from shared friends regarding troubles with a new room mate (room mate A, we will say) being answered with malice towards this 'friend' of theirs, the disbelief that they were 'doing this again', and professionals explaining that not only did the diagnosis I'd been told not match at all (of which lined up with my own professional and personal experience of it), but that they were reminiscent of an abusive groomer that would try to keep everyone in a bad place made for a really bad mix. Our friends at the time had asked them (A) to not talk to them about any of this as an emotional boundary, to which they ignored and continued to do. I told them not to, and they took that idea and ran with the thought I was trying to separate them from everyone when I was the only one at the time trying to convince everyone else to give them time. They also seemed to not like the fact I was writing literally everything down that happened at this time, since my DID was flaring up badly enough to have complete black outs and I had started to rely heavily on going along with what others told me. So writing things down was, in my mind, the most helpful and best course of action for everyone. I can imagine if you hate/dislike someone, though, them writing things down could seem abusive or controlling or something. Unfortunately the writing things down did catch a lot of bad things, which might be another reason they didn't like it.

Someone we had been very close to, but cut off due to abuse/toxicity, came back into our lives around this time as well. They had gone to therapy, and done a lot of work to get themselves to a better place, so it was a really nice positive experience to see them again. They very vocally expressed that they felt we were being treated like absolute shit and unfairly. Both room mates became mean and distant. Due to the PTSD shit, the things everyone else was saying, and the tanking of my own physical and mental health, we insisted they move out. This was met with a sudden onset of a lot of touching even when being asked to stop, and a lot of wording very specific to triggers. It was ass, but luckily I was able to keep myself frozen instead of going into fight, and we stuck to asking them to move out rather than caving and having them stay.

They then went to a person who I had mentioned I had trouble thinking they could ever do anything wrong, no matter how horrid the behavior. This person was supposed to be the best man at my wedding- they had used me to defend them up and down for everything, and used me like a chess piece to abuse and gaslight their partner. Their partner, who they cheated on with several different people for seven years. The reason we finally broke off as friends, is because they cheated, proudly admitted to it, and then tried to change the story and say that the autistic trans woman in question raped them after I told them I'd be telling their partner about what they did. They got mad that, for the first time I refused to blindly side with them. I Still struggle to think they did wrong, even if on paper I know they did. One of the shared friends I had with room mate A, whom I had tried to get the most information from in regards how to best help and address what room mate A was going through, suddenly flipped what they were saying and started defending room mate A much in the same way I would speak about this Best Man friend. It made me reflect on that, and what the relationship I had had with Best Man ever was. Then I found out that this friend had had a sexual relationship with Room mate A when they were 11 and room mate A was 16. This did not pair well with the fact they had expressed wanting to get away from room mate A and focus more on their life in person, and that they did better mentally when they were away from them. Through out all of this I was still thinking that so long as we could just get A and B to move out into their own space, we could stay friends and I could help them get help, and etc. I just wanted them Out Of My Space in order to do that. They'd hear none of it, and insisted I was trying to kill them by making them move out.

On the Funeral of my last living relative that had ever been any amount of good, room mate A moved out, sent strange texts that sounded more like Best Man speaking that also for some reason compared me to Jesus- which makes me wonder if we had never been friends and instead I had been put on a strange and impossible pedestal of some kind. Which would make some sense.

We allowed room mate B as much time as possible to move out. They said they had cut off from room mate A, but they were always very bad at lying. We never really minded, they must have had their own reasons for feeling the need to lie. Either way, we wanted to give them time to move out and it wound up being about four or six months instead of a typical 30 day. It felt like torture, though, since they expressed they didnt want to be interacted with, or spoken to much, and they acted as if we didnt exist. They insisted they were looking for places to move out to. A new friend of theirs said they could move in with them, but then decided they couldnt because that person suddenly got pneumonia, which isnt contagious at all and they could have helped take care of them, so I suspect they just made something up to back out of it. I had very little energy at this time, my physical health was pretty bad, the funeral had hit hard and I had just learned something Extremely Fucked Up about my entire family and a good chunk of a bad part of my childhood. On top of that, the shitty uncle that had changed the will right before this family member died, made it so if we wanted to inherit Anything to remember this person by we would have to pay money for it. Room mate B who I had viewed as one of my best friends in my life had gone cold and as if I hadnt existed. So I mostly just had energy to keep working. I tried to help them find places, though they only worked 3 days of the week and had more time to do so. When I did find people, theyd seem disinterested. Later on, Id ask some of these people how the meeting had gone with them, and they all said that room mate B had turned them down. When I asked room mate B, they said the people said the room was already filled. I wanted to believe that maybe the other people were lying, because that sucked less. It also reminded me of all the times Best Man would do spiritual magic things to cause series of events to make things look very bad, or very good, depending on what was in their favor. Id rather think that, even. Room mate B was still buying expensive things during this time as well, though they were supposed to be saving up. We eventually did have to tell them they finally only had 30 days. I left to help a friend drive across the country, since she is a traveling nurse, alone, and their home was in Florida and she had come out to California to work and her husband couldnt go with her since he was working in Alaska. During that time, room mate B got rid of the pet chickens without telling me or giving me a chance to say good bye. (They were originally a shared thing. Then room mate B had expressed wanting to take over for them completely to learn responsibility and to try and have a scheduled thing theyd need to do every day. I had agreed that was a good idea, and to let me know if they needed to change it back. They had talked about it being difficult, but never asked to change it back. I wonder now if they had been indirectly asking and I didnt catch it. ) They eventually left, but left behind most of their stuff. I was really upset at the idea of them being in a bad spot in depression and apathetic, and wanted to hang onto their things so theyd have enough time to get it all. There was a lot of sentimental things there, and furniture and such. We kept it for three months, and tried contacting them several times. Eventually I was made to toss all of it, which I know is technically the good thing, but I still feel like shit.

What may be stupid, is I'd probably be friends with any of them again because I think.. people are doing what makes sense to them. On top of that, I've experienced people doing things like setting others on fire, so break downs, cheating, and etc seem like small beans. So I have safety rules put in place now, from therapy.

entry 2: feeling your feelings

photo by: @worry-lines-comics

6 December 2023, 12:00am

i feel like for most of us, feelings tend to appear as obstacles– chores, even. something that gets in the way of life.

ugh, why do i have to have a mental breakdown a few hours before my very important deadline? why do i have to feel sad when i’m about to go out and meet my friends? i have so much to do today, i don’t have time to feel this way!

:/

i had therapy today, and we went in depth on how to handle my feelings. ask my therapist and he can tell you all about my tendencies to intellectualise my feelings instead of simply… feeling them and letting them do its thing. i’ve always felt this need to problem solve to quickly get rid of the bad feelings so that we can all move on with our day. if you’re guilty of doing this as well then.. i’m sorry to burst your bubble but it does nothing good for you. nothing permanent, at least.

most of the time i don’t even know what i’m feeling. all i could identify was that they were making me feel bad. and i think i probably had the belief that if i were to pry deeper into the feelings, i’d find worse feelings than just ‘bad’ and i guess a part of me did not want to deal with that. but you know how life is, just a constant cycle of things to be dealt with.

today he sent me a picture of some sort of an emotions wheel that branches out basic emotions to specific/extreme ones. sad -> hurt/lonely/despair/depressed -> disappointed/abandoned/powerless/empty. very kindergaten, i know. but it helped. like i said, most of the time i’m unable to identify exactly what i’m feeling. so how are we to deal with our feelings if we don’t even know what they are?

let that sink in.

during one of our earlier sessions my therapist mentioned ‘taking accountability for your feelings’ to me, which i, at first, was completely offended by. i was saying that xxx happened and it made me feel this way. it made sense right? why was he invalidating me for feeling a certain way because of something that someone did?

after that session i went home and thought about it further. i realised that taking accountability for your feelings doesn’t have to mean the cause of your feelings were invalid or unjustified. i guess it’s more of better understanding yourself and your triggers rather than just dwelling on the fact that it’s caused by that one person, or that one incident. (tbh i’m not sure if this was what he meant, but it makes sense to me so i’m running with it)

frankly speaking, i still struggle to grasp the concept of separating my emotions from the ‘cause’ of them. but i can say that i’m more conscious of the way i approach these negative feelings that come up from time to time. i think one way to handle your emotions better, is to personify them.

think inside out.

all the different emotions in your mind and your heart just trying their best to handle what life is throwing at them. when you feel a certain emotion creeping up, don’t shy away. don’t ignore them. give the emotion the attention it needs and sit with it, no matter how uncomfortable it may be.

most importantly, remember– your emotions are not out to get you. don’t treat them as such.

at the end of the day, feelings and emotions are what makes us humans. it’s what connects us best with other humans. being able to feel surprised, content, angry, scared, bored, excited, anxious.. i think it’s beautiful. just like in life, you can’t just have the good stuff all the time. in order to appreciate the happy feelings, you’re gonna have to go through the bad feelings too!

also also! remember, you are never alone. i know my blog has 0 viewers now but in any case this gets the attention of anybody who might need it, my inbox is always a safe space for you.

i hope this has been a helpful sharing! please have a great day and remember to be kind to yourself <3

till the next entry, friends!

nelly.

Productive Day

Today was spent in a chaotic mess.

Pulling everything out of my closet, I attempted to Marie Kondo the shit out it.

People always reference Marie Kondo when it comes to organization or downsizing items, whether it's in jest or seriousness. You know what though? After reading her book, it left a lasting impression on me. Like why not? The idea of surrounding yourself with only the things and people that really "sparks joy" in you is just beautiful.

Why wouldn't I want to wake up every day surrounded by items that just glancing at, makes me feel happy. Going through my day, socializing, using certain items, that brings a smile to my face. That bolster of good vibes will counteract any negativity I may encounter that day.

I think it's about time that I really take an active role in ignoring the negativity that surrounds me and just carry on doing what makes me happy. I'm tired of constantly hearing from people how I should be, how I should feel, what I should do, why am I eating this or that. It's unbelievable how much people try to direct me on even the simplest things like what drink I should be ordering. Why? Just because I don't really care to speak up? I also get crap for that as well.

It's not even just an avoidance of confrontations. It's more of a I just don't feel like this is worth my time. If I feel strongly about something then I do speak up. Then again, it's also a waste of time speaking up if the person just talks over me or dismisses my thoughts. Then it's more of an alright then, you do you and I'm just going to carry on so please stop talking. There's just nothing left to discuss. A discussion means both parties should be willing to converse and listen. I find that many of my "loved ones" these days don't even believe in me anymore. Anything I may say has often been looked down upon.

For example, when I mentioned that ube, purple sweet potato and taro are in fact, not the same root. I had looked it up before with another group of friends when we were trying to determine what it was we were eating. Yes, the ube and purple sweet potato are similar and are even in the same family but there really is a distinction and are categorized as its own root. So why? What was with the disdain and dismissal as if I really am just too stupid to do anything? As if all those years of being the most responsible and trustworthy one in the family meant nothing just because I've been struggling these past few years.

No one has ever stopped to asked me why. What happened? Is there a story behind it all? Asking and then not listening doesn't count. It's ridiculous when strangers give you the benefit of the doubt and hear you out before making judgement but the people closest to you have already typecasted you so no matter what you say, they're not even listening.

Has anyone ever thought about why I act a certain way towards certain situations or certain people? Maybe that situation is a trigger because of some past trauma. Maybe that person has so thoroughly broken my trust that it's all I can do just trying to treat them civilly. I have no patience left to spare for someone who abandoned me when I reached out for help.

Some have been pushing me to go to therapy. Therapy will help. Don't talk to them about things because ya know, they can't help me. Again, why dictate how I should be when you won't even support me. Therapy only works when you have a support system. What support system do I have? Too much shit has happened over the years and I feel like everyone's so concerned with their own lives for me to even reach out. Even if I do, which I have here and there, I was just betrayed anyways. When something's a secret, it's supposed to stay a secret. Not told to your mother or your significant other who has no real obligation to keep quiet about it. The worst is when you spill your guts out and the other person use it as a conversation topic with someone you're not even close to. Why?

I feel like I'm constantly asking why? Why would you betray my trust like that? Why are you forcing your opinions on me? Why are you making me feel like a waste of space? Why are you getting angry when I'm literally just doing what you told me to do, ignoring the negativity and doing my own thing? Why are you wasting my time?

At this low point in my life, with so much trauma and PTSD, I just don't have the capacity to deal with anyone's negativity. Keep your shit to yourself. If you don't wanna hear about mine, don't tell me about yours. I'm tired of being the one always there to help, always there to do a favor but I get nothing in return.

I'm tired of being told I'm all alone and no one cares. Everyone's just nice to me because so and so. Why even say these things to me? As if I'm not already feeling low. How does this make things better? This isn't "tough love", it's just negativity. It's verbal abuse with how far and how long you go with it. Again, why? You claim to love me. Where's the love? The comfort? The support?

There's just so many issues that's piled up over the years and I just don't really know where to start.

Therapy sounds great and all but there's no connection. I'm just paying someone to listen to me vent. I might as well start journaling again. I mean, I only stopped because my mother kept reading my entries then coming after me for them. There was literally no safe space growing up. I never felt safe and relaxed at home. Not even once. My room wasn't even safe. No where was. I felt more comfortable being at school. There was structure and expectations, as long as I stayed within those parameters, I didn't get shit for it. Instead I got the praise and encouragement I needed.

I remember being so afraid when I got in trouble at school. I wasn't afraid of getting beat up. I wasn't afraid of getting detention. I was afraid of my parents getting called in. Anything else could happen, any punishment accepted. Just don't call my parents because that meant shit at home where I couldn't escape from. That meant walking on eggshells for days and being afraid of triggering who knows what trigger that ranged from just sitting in my room quietly to just sitting in the living room. Essentially just being around and breathing could be the trigger to some epic fight.

Life just sucks and then you die.

The End.

P.S. Mr C was a great teacher. Encouraging free writes and always replying in such interested, invested comments. It's been a while since I've done one. So thank you Mr C for making part of my childhood so safe.

I’m 27 and have been in a relationship for 18 months. My boyfriend and I met five months after I left my abusive ex-partner, who I’d met after the death of my father. My boyfriend is kind, funny, has a zest for life, loves to include me and never shies away from talking about the future. He moved in six months ago. We went through a rough patch. I made life particularly difficult by avoiding spending time at home and picking fights. We are finally stable. However, I feel desperately sad and disconnected, even though I feel I ought to be relieved. I struggle to deal with my free time and though I see friends I feel restless in their company. Unless the flat is spotless, I can’t relax. In the back of my mind, a malicious voice is telling me that my boyfriend’s affection is tantamount to pity. I fear I’ll lose this lovely man to my demons. But I’m afraid that my trauma has led me to seek out a “Band-Aid relationship” that I cannot relate to. The thought of leaving fills me with dread, but I feel myself retreating further.

anxiety and ptsd are such bitches, aren't they? even when everything in my life would seem perfect, at least from the perspective of an outsider, i still feel the weight and shadow of all the stuff that could go wrong, of nonexistent threats lurking in the dark, of malicious people plotting for my ruin that probably aren't even there. not sure if those are the same demons you were referring to, but the way you worded it made me think of my own trauma responses to life treating me unusually well. i am not accostumed to being in a safe healthy environment where I don't have to constantly be on the lookout, so i tend to ruin it with my own fears, paranoid behaviors, obsessions etc. that my neurotypical husband doesn't share or understand.

when we first moved in together, my husband and i, it was much worse though. i literally couldn't relax, as i was plagued by the irrational fear that someone or something would come along to rob me of my newly found hardwon peace. i was so afraid that i would lose him and that i would be tossed back to that life of uncertainty and instability that i had known since childhood. but it's been two years now, and the worst case scenario permanently playing in the back of my mind still hasn't happened. I can't say i dont feel that way anymore, in fact i still get triggered at the first tiniest sign of disruption, but at least every day i let facts and reality prove my fears wrong.

the restlessness you feel probably comes from your brain not knowing how to operate in times of peace. we trauma/abuse survivors only understand conflict and survival. it takes time and a very patient caring partner and sometimes therapy to make us understand that war is over and we can relax like every other person on earth because not everyone lives on edge like we do all of the time, and this mindset is simply not reasonable or realistic

How to lose weight? What are the obstacles to weight loss?

The Pitfall of Constantly Seeking Immediate Results

Greetings, everyone! Today, I want to address one of the most common mistakes people make when trying to transform their bodies and embark on a new life journey. Picture this: you spend 30 minutes in front of a good mirror, under favorable lighting conditions, without blinking once, and you intensely focus on your hair. Let me ask you a question: do you notice your hair growing? Can you witness your hair lengthening right before your eyes? Of course not.

So, here’s the analogy: imagine capturing a photo of yourself today and then approaching the mirror again after six months. Do you think you would notice any difference? Would you see your hair has grown? Oh, wait, you might think it’s time for an urgent visit to the hairdresser.

But here’s the point: the first and fundamental mistake made by those who embark on a weight loss journey is constantly and obsessively trying to see immediate results. It’s akin to a person who accidentally shaved their head and eagerly stares into the mirror, hoping to witness their hair miraculously growing back. So, why do we act this way regarding weight loss? There’s only one reason: hair grows independently, and deep down, you know it will grow regardless.

The Weight Loss Insecurity Loop. Endless Fixation and Self-Torment

Weight loss is often accompanied by feelings of insecurity. What if it doesn’t work out? What if…? These doubts lead us to fixate on the process, turning our lives into an agonizing ordeal. Constantly questioning ourselves, we impatiently wonder, “When will my belly disappear?” My dear friends, this approach won’t work. After all, the sole purpose of improving our appearance is to derive more pleasure from life. However, fixating on this pursuit transforms our lives into a living hell.

Furthermore, daily weight fluctuations are common and do not necessarily indicate weight gain. Yet, worrying about these fluctuations can lead to a spiral of self-sabotage, causing you to indulge in unhealthy food out of frustration. Moreover, excessive anxiety triggers the release of cortisol, which impedes fat burning. To break free from this cycle, a little practice is required.

Practical Steps for Mindful Weight Loss. Embrace the Journey

Firstly, you now know what not to do. Recognize when you fall into the fixation trap and catch yourself in the act. Secondly, never treat body transformation as a project with a set deadline. Avoid targeting weight loss specifically for a wedding, a vacation, or the summer season. Thirdly, steer clear of restrictive diets. Firstly, diets always entail temporary changes in eating patterns, meaning they have a fixed timeframe. Secondly, weight tends to return after any diet. If you’re skeptical, please take the time to read this article I recommend.

Fourthly, remember that our results are always a consequence of the process. A beautiful body is a fact, but achieving it is a process. Similarly, an esteemed lifestyle is a process. Obesity is a process, a constant one that often goes unnoticed. However, when we struggle to fit into our favorite shorts during the summer, it becomes a fact. Aging is a process, and becoming an elderly person is a fact.

The Power of Trust and Belief. Have Confidence in Your Actions

Finally, the most crucial aspect is to trust in what you are doing. There should be no room for doubt, no “what if” or “maybe.” When it comes to lifestyle and nutrition choices, which I extensively discuss in my articles, I have never encountered a single case where someone followed all the guidelines and failed to lose weight. Not a single one. By the way, for those of you reading my article for the first time, you can find comprehensive information on guaranteed weight loss in these two articles:

[rabbit-chicken-witch]

I dislike the change that is meeting new people. I dislike my recent thought process because of it too.

There’s a lot of things I’m pretty flexible with, but when it comes to someone new entering my circle, I find myself struggling internally.

The social anxiety and the fact I grew up basically on my own is definitely a part of it, but it’s also the energy it takes to acclimate and find common ground with someone.

Finding that groove. Which doesn’t always exist, and makes the experience not great in my opinion.

I’m always amazed by the people who are like “wow new friends!” Because that’s a lot of effort and energy for me personally.

I keep trying though, because I have met a good handful of people that have jumped hurdle after hurdle after hurdle with me to get to the point of being what a call a real friend.

It’s probably a huge reason I’m pretty judgmental, especially more so now I think. A defense mechanism and a way to keep things at arms length in my brain to not think about too much. Which is not something I like all the time. For the bitches that earned it, it’s one thing. For a daily thought process it’s too much. I know a part of the fact is work, a drive through will get you in the skimming mood a lot. But if there’s one thing I want to change in this thought process is:

Am I any different?

And just because I don’t care for you enough to care personally, do I have to be a dick or treat you any different? No.

I’m not going to try to sugar coat that liking people isn’t hard. I can be such a mean person just because I don’t want you in my bubble.

But I at least want to make the choice to bite, not just react to whatever introverted bs triggers me.

I can be honest and also change it, this much I understand.
