So I wanna ask this and while it might not get answered, I'm wondering about tippi and Count bleck. I'm curious about how strong timpani and Blumiere are and if they'd be able to solo the pit of 100 trials together.
I think they could, though Blumiere would have an easier time doing so and might be able to carry both of them through it since he is very skilled in magic.
But Timpani is a human with (assumedly, based on what we know about her) no combat knowledge, so she might not get far if she were to do it by herself.

Round 4 - Catholic Character Tournament
Tumblr media
Propaganda below ⬇️
Harrowhark
I'm pretty sure you've already got plenty of submissions for her so I'll just say she was raised in what is basically a cult (technically a nunnery but let's be real) dedicated to keeping the body of the thing that will kill God behind the rock. One of their prayers is actually "I pray the rock is never rolled away". Harrow is extremely devout as penance for her earlier heretical actions in the tomb as a child (spoiler!) so the Catholic guilt really comes through
imagine being a catholic nun and you meet god, but it turns out he’s a twitch streamer from new zealand who became god because everything got a little bit out of hand. and just before you met him you gave yourself a diy grief-fuelled lobotomy with the help of your best frenemy. imagine how insane you’d be. now multiply that insanity by nine. that’s the fictional love of my life right there.
she meets god. she’s not inspired
she’s number one practitioner of space Catholicism. The locked tomb is chock full of Christian (catholic) imagery themes metaphors etc. just look at her she’s got a bone rosary
They're Catholicism with extra bones. Everyone is a nun. They have what is basically a rosary made from knuckle bones. They technically worship the same God as everyone else, but they're waaaay more focused on The Body in the Tomb (Mary) and we get a moment where we find out that while everyone else prays the equivilent of The Lords Prayer, they're doing the equivilent of Hail Mary. And they paint their faces with skulls.
She thinks leaving dry bread in a drawer is taking care of someone. She's in love with a 10,000 year old corpse (the same one they worship). She spent ALL NIGHT digging with her bare hands to make sure a field had bones every 5 feet so she could fight her girlfriend - I mean, greatest enemy. Spoiler territory: She's been puppeting her parents corpses since she was 8 years old. Instead of grieving her dead girlfriend, she gives herself a lobotomy. She makes soup with bone in it so she can use the bone IN THEIR STOMACH to try and kill them.
The author is/was Catholic and the entire series had heavy Catholic overtones. https://www.tor.com/2020/08/19/gideon-the-ninth-young-pope-and-the-new-pope-are-building-a-queer-catholic-speculative-fiction-canon/ A good breakdown of how it's Catholic
Anti-propaganda (spoilers)
I love the Locked Tomb series but Harrowhark has daddy issues with God, had a childhood crush on God's cryogenic partner, and is in love with God's daughter, not to mention that she's essentially a bone-bender. The religion on her home planet exists in a way that is technically against the will of the canon in-universe God, even. All of this to say, Harrowhark is heretical at minimum if not an outright witch. Terrible Catholic. Burn her.
Ronan Lynch
Uhh fun fact he saw the devil flash his father once, and that's one of the reasons he goes to church on Sundays <3
context for this scene from book 2: ronan is in church with his older brother declan, younger brother matthew, and ghost friend noah "Joseph Kavinsky isn’t someone I want you being around,” Declan added. “Don’t snort. I’m serious.” Ronan merely invested a look with as much contempt as he could muster. A lady reached over the top of Noah to pat Matthew’s head fondly before continuing down the aisle. She didn’t seem to care that he was fifteen, which was all right, because he didn’t, either. Both Ronan and Declan observed this interaction with the pleased expressions of parents watching their prodigy at work. Declan repeated, “Like, actually dangerous.” Sometimes, Declan seemed to think that being a year older gave him special knowledge of the seedier side of Henrietta. What he meant was, did Ronan know that Kavinsky was a cokehead. In his ear, Noah whispered, “Is crack the same thing as speed?” Ronan didn’t answer. He didn’t think it was a very church-appropriate conversation. “I know you think you’re a punk,” Declan said. “But you aren’t nearly as bad ass as you think you are.” “Oh, go to hell,” Ronan snapped, just as the altar boys broached the rear doors. “Guys,” Matthew pleaded. “Be holy.”
Gay Catholic streetracing farmer. Consumed by catholic guilt NOT because of the gay thing but because he can Create things in a way he thinks should be only God's business. Will literally roll up to mass on sunday morning still drunk and bloody.
THIS GOTH KID IS LITERALLY GOD. This is a god trapped in the body of a Catholic teen and if he ever stopped feeling Catholic guilt he’d end the world!!. How is your confession every week that you creating a whole new being? Babygirl the God is coming from inside the house
eldritch entity from beyond the mortal plane wants to be a Real Human Boy, becomes a real (ish!) human (ish!) boy, goes to mass every sunday
Gay boy got his crush an apartment above his church so he could have his two favorite things in one place
gay. I'm not caught up the the series but I went through the tag when the latest book came out and I remember seeing a quote that said he worried if his boyfriend would make it to heaven when he dies because of his agnostic tendencies.
Kid is like a dream warlock who creates psychic horrors and never goes to confession because why would he? and he’s gay
There are no words
basically ronan's powers are inherited from his dead father niall and it means he can bring anything from a dream into real life. so he's got this whole crisis about whether he is a living piece of blasphemy because men are not meant to have the powers of gods or whether he literally is god. which is not acceptable to him for a number of reasons but mostly because he hates himself. his love interest's name is adam and adam lives in a small apartment above a church which the book says focuses the objects of his worship neatly into one building. I love them both dearly. also, this entire page makes me feel like I'm going insane. Ronan Lynch believed in heaven and hell. Once, he’d seen the devil. It had been a low, late morning at the Barns when the sun had burned off the mist and then burned off the chill and then burned the edges off the ground until everything shimmered with heat. It never got hot in those protected fields, but that morning, the air sweated with it. Ronan had never seen cattle pant before. All of the cows heaved and stuck their tongues out as they frothed with the heat. His mother sent Ronan to put them in the shade of the cattle barn. Ronan had gone to the searing metal gate, and as he did, he’d glimpsed his father, already in the barn. Four yards away from him had stood a red man. He was not truly red, but the burned orange of a fire ant. And he was not truly a man, because of the horns and the hooves. Ronan remembered the alienness of the creature, how real it had been. Every costume in the world had gotten it wrong; every drawing in every comic book. They’d all forgotten that the devil was an animal. Looking at the red man, Ronan had been struck by the intricacy of the body, how many miraculous pieces moved smoothly in harmony, no different than his own. Niall Lynch had had a gun in hand — the Lynches had an enormous number of guns of all sizes — and just as Ronan had opened the gate, his father had shot the thing about thirteen times in the head. With a shake of its horns, the unharmed devil had presented its genitalia to Niall Lynch before bounding off. It was an image that had yet to leave Ronan. And so Ronan became a reverse evangelist. The truth burst and grew inside him, and it was laid upon him to share it with no one. No one was meant to see hell before they get there. No one should have to live with the devil. So many homilies on faith were ruined once you no longer required it for belief.
Our boy CHOOSES not to receive the Eucharist because he doesn’t believe he is worthy. The spiritual insight, the devotion, the fact that this teenager is worried he may have a mortal sin weighing on his soul…this boy isn’t just going through the motions, he’s putting work into this.

Hi thereee~ Would you mind doing some headcanons of the chain with a reader that basically has no personal space rules set in place for themselves, so they're like a living teddy bear up for hugs and anything else? Who would totally take advantage of this for free cuddles?
A/n:Oh my goodness this is really cute heck yea. I’m not sure if this was meant to be platonic or romantic but it can be read as either!! Also, I’m only gonna do three for right now, just so I can have something out and it doesn’t take too long to produce, I’d hate to keep you waiting for so long :(. The other ones will be written as well though! Just in multiple parts! Thank you so much for your patience🫶
Chain w/ free cuddles reader <3 part 1.
This part includes Time, Sky, and Twilight in that order!
Also Lemme preface and say the chain would absolutely make sure you’re 100% okay with it first. They don’t wanna cross any lines, even if there aren’t technically any lines there. Just had to throw that out there. Anyway!
Tumblr media
Time:
The old man isn’t really a cuddly person, but if you were you just come up to him and hug him, I don’t think he’d think anything of it. You’d definitely have to initiate it first with him for a while. Take for instance he and the captain are going over plans. You walk up to him and just hug around his torso or hug his arm and lean your head on his shoulder(or wherever you can reach), he wouldn’t even miss a beat.
“Hey uhh old man?”
“What?”
“…nothing”
They’re all just a touch too intimidated to say anything. He has a soft spot for you and would let you walk all over him if you wanted. Eventually he does get to a point where he returns your affections and place an arm around you whenever you come up—even if you don’t initiate it. He gets used to the affection you give and subtly begins to seek you out. Sitting by you at dinner time, putting his bedroll by yours, silently hoping you end up in his arms in the middle of the night. You’re comforting to him and he likes having you around.
Sky
Sky would 10000% take advantage of free affection. That man is the human version of the word “cuddle,” so the fact that you are as well makes him melt. Finally, he has someone just as snuggly as he is. I can see the two of you constantly snuggled up by the fire, his sailcloth around you both to act ad a blanket. He’d either be whittling something new(probably some cute gift for you) or playing his harp—or even just talking to one of the others. If he’s not doing something with his hands, you best believe he’s got at least one of his arms around you. I also know for a FACT he loves having someone play with his hair(it’s me I’m Jojo I say so/j). You can’t have hair THAT fluffy and not constantly want someone playing with it. Sky will absolutely seek you out at any time of day—as the chain travels around, he’ll come to walk by you and take your hand, swinging it with a dopey smile like he was proud of himself to get to walk beside you(spoiler alert:he is. He’s so happy he gets to exist at the same time as you, even momentarily.) sky adores you and wants nothing more than to hold you all the time. He will if you let him, but you’d have to say that first.
Twilight
My rancher, my cowboy, my beloved. He gives the best bear hugs in all of Hyrule—every Hyrule! He’s probably the second person under sky to absolutely take advantage of the ‘free hugs from y/n’ rule. He loves getting hugs and giving them too :,). He and sky are the comfort people in the chain—and you, little charm, are the newest addition to that title. If anyone is in need of comfort and love, they go to one of three folks. Sky, twilight, and you. You are Twilight’s comfort person, most definitely. Both as wolfie and himself. The wolf walks by you, and twilight will do his best to as well. Usually he sticks around the old man, but when he can, he’s by you, even doing so much as to drag you to the front of the group so he can have both. He likes being in his mentor’s plans, hearing the creation of them, knowing exactly what direction they’re heading and being able to be one of the first into action should something occur—speaking of action, that’s another reason he likes you by him. Not only to sling an arm around you and have you hug around his torso—but so he can protect you as well. He adores you and would absolutely blame himself if something happened to you(he and the champion are alike in that way). He can always keep you safe, and hold you when he wants to, so it’s a win win situation!

Drifting thoughts about the aftermath of the new war. SPOILERS for those whom have not played it yet also duviri so you've been warned.
So you get your hand uhh.. Degloved? I guess, and you get a new one. That doesn't belong to you and you have to technically give it back right? Like they need it back. So the drifter looses a hand right? Even if you are never shown it, and then I realized.. Thrax whom the drifter.. Is technically has a fully prosethic arm and decided for my drifter he would have a sort the same hand? Inspired by Durivi and symbolism. ANYWAY its just some thoughts, I gotta lay down.

So uhh
I like In Stars and Time. You should play it if you haven't already. It's extremely good. And I will be subtly spoiling a lot of it during this analysis.
Recently I have thought of thr trend if assigning tarot cards to characters in media, or my on characters. So I thought...what if I did that to ISAT?
...so yeah. I'll be doing that. Please tell me if I mess it up, or give me your opinions.
Again, spoilers under the cut.
Siffrin(Fool of Hanged Man)
Tumblr media
Fool: The Fool is generally seen as the start of a journey. Even though he is at the end, the time loops and the fact that they have a lot of things to worry about/trauma means that they have a long journey ahead of them.
Hanged Man: A reversed Hanged Man, to be precise. Siffrin is INTENSLY afraid of change. To be more specific, he's stuck in this time lopp because he doesn't want to forget or leave his friends behind. His family behind, his country, his memory. The hanged man is about sacrifice and moving forward, and they do NOT want to do either. But they must.
I would also like to add that they may also be linked to The Devil card. Mostly because it's about desire and stuff and Siffrin desires amny things and can do a lot of selfish and cruel things to his family members.
Mirabelle:Lovers or Chariot.
Tumblr media
Lovers:Mirabelle is aroace and perfectly fine with that. It’s a shame that she lives in a society where being perfectly fine with staying stagnant forever is discouraged.
Mirabelle is very religious. She believes strongly in the word of Change. So strongly that she is willing to ignore her feelings of being happy with who she is. She loves expressing platonic and familial love, but...romance and sex ain't it.
I chose the Lovers because it is about choice. Crossroads in one's life, that decide your fate. She was about to make the wrong one, the one that would make her miserable. Luckily, she didn't.
Chariot: Mirabelle may not be the Fool, but the thing that helps the fool move forward is a trusty chariot. From the beginning she's been trying to move forward and save Vaugarde from the King, and especially in the clocktower and higher levels of the house, she is determined to bring her home to its regular state.
If she doesn't, she will let everyone she cares about down. Also, again, she loves in a society where she feels she has to change, even if it means being in a romantic/sexual relationship and hating it. It's all for change, it's all for moving forward.
Isabeau: Strength.
Tumblr media
Before the story, Isabeau may have been a reversed strength Arcana. Or at least that's how would see it. He was weak, and had low self-esteem and self-worth. And he hated it. He hated it so much that he became...well,*he*.
While he doesn't necessarily appreciate being treated as an idiot now, he seems happy to be a stronger, more confident, and upright version of himself, both inside and our. Though...judging by the fact that Siffrin's comments got to him during their uhh..darker moments, there may still be some doubts left in him.
(Sidenote I think Isabeau may be my favorite character besides Sif and Loop)
Boniface: Sun and Magician
Tumblr media
Sun: Bonnie is a ray of positive energy wrapped in a small little crab with a potty mouth and I love them for it. And so does the rest of the party. They support the others with their cooking and miniscule damage. And it's good.
The rest of the saviors would do anything to keep that ray of positivity alive. Even if it meant they would die in the process.
Its no wonder that when they die to the king in the end of Act 3...Siffrin considers that the end.
Magician:This is mostly coming from their hangout quest. Bonnie can heal and cook, but they can also fight...barely. The fact that they are technically the only other party member who can use rock attacks at base(without using a spell like Odile or Sif) shows that they have some potential. And they want to use and grow that potential to go on kore adventures and help their friends.
Odile: Hermit
Tumblr media
Odile, while serving as the party's mature voice of reason, and probably fitting for roles like The Empress or Hierophant, I personally see her as a Hermit because of how isolated her story is.
The only one who ever knows what she's doing with her research is Siffrin, and only if/when you do her quest. Every other time, she seems to be isolated and actively hiding it. Its not that she doesn't rely on her friends,but...she's simply doing this alone.
It's a very personal journey for her about being more connected to your heritage and reflecting on yourself.
To be honest, Hermit works REALLY well for Siffrin, too.

I have a comic! Put under cut for Dragons Rising spoilers, since an important thing from the last episode is shown (kinda) vaguely!
Tumblr media
Not really titled but here's a thing (RE!n au)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So uhh welcome to the end of the post!
This happened because I thought it would be fun to see how I could fuck up the plot of Dragons Rising with RE!n Zane but uhh. Yeah I got attached to the characters and made some lore and now this exists. Very different tone from what I originally had in mind (cosmic horror crack)!
Also, I kinda finally showed why RE!n is "notebook", as you can see the notebook in the first panel! It's magic and talks to him. But less in a weird creepy magic way and more in a group chat but nonsensically on a notebook instead way. Because of that chat (my friend and I's rp (that has lore and character development)) Zane got "mod powers" due to a very random situation we decided to put him in, and now he's slowly becoming a mod (which. Has a very flexible definition to us considering the wild variety but most of it has to do with keeping the multiverse running). He's (technically) a mortal it's going a bit differently for him but after watching DR I had the strange thought about the god egg story so uh. Yeah now this exists. You're welcome or I'm sorry

Anon I think you meant the Flags + Chuuya & Rimbaud with an S/O who is like ME because reader is such a copy of me.
The images do not belong to me. They belong to their original owners.
TW: Lots of mentions of death, suicide, abuse. Stormbringer spoilers below! Also uhh this is kinda long because I got a bit too in character
The Flags + Chuuya & Rimbaud with an S/O who's like present!Dazai
Tumblr media
Pianoman:
-He found you to be very... interesting. Someone who was so like Dazai except not as dark? Pianoman definitely keeps a close eye on you at the start
-The first time you met him you literally walked up to him and asked if he could behead you with his wires
-‘... And why would I do that?’ ‘Because it would be such a quick and painless death, not to mention it would look very pretty too! Besides, I wouldn’t mind dying at the hands of a handsome man~’
-Pianoman was kind of weirded out, but he quickly got used to your antics. He found you fun to be around, because you weren’t like anybody that he had met and dealt with before. Over time, he found you to be your own person and treated you differently than the others
-You were quite the flirty one as well... he literally can’t go for a day without you dropping some pickup lines on him. They made him blush internally quite a lot, but on the outside he reprimanded you since he technically is your ‘leader’ of some sorts
-The first few times he was genuinely worried for you. Being the leader of the Flags, he does act like a mother hen and cares for the other members. Definitely sends you to therapy, but gave up when you kept on traumatising the therapist and escaping the building just to jump into a river
-Made you wear a ‘If lost, return to Pianoman’ shirt but you just gave it to his fangirls in the Mafia. He had to deal with tons of his fangirls snatching the shirt and nearly ripping it apart lmao I don’t blame them he’s attractive
-When you two got into a relationship, Pianoman’s going to worry about you x10. Literally has to stop you from jumping into rivers and tying a noose to a beam. He assigns the Flags to watch over you, but your cunning brain always managed to outwit them
-You and Albatross often got caught up in mischief with each other, and all the other Flags members now have a headache trying to predict what you two were going to do next. But your lovely partner always managed to calm you down, even if you teased him a lot
-Pianoman does admire your smartness. You’ve helped him quite a lot in his missions, and I feel like intelligence is an admirable trait to him. When you use your smartness for the purpose of pranks and mischief, he’d gently reprimand you, but he finds your mischief amusing too
-That one time you ate a weird mushroom and was prancing around everywhere in a hyper and crazy state, that was the end of the line. Pianoman actually asks you why you were like this; he loved you and cared for you, so why were you trying so hard to kill yourself?
-You brushed it off as a ‘it’s part of my personality’, but Pianoman could see through that lie. So he very gently tilted your chin up to meet his eyes and asked the question again in a soft voice
-You were silent for a while, before slowly admitting that you had a childhood full of abuse. Pianoman listened to you without speaking a word, and you could tell that this was hard for him. It was then that you could truly see his love for you, and you felt guilty for putting him through so much stress and anxiety every time you did your suicide antics. But what you didn’t expect was for him to grasp your shoulders and look into your eyes with so much sincerity and care
‘Y/N... I love you, always have, always will. I love you because you’re so smart, strong, and unique, and how you never let anyone take advantage of you. I love you more than anybody else, and I just want to be by your side whenever you need me.’
Albatross:
-A menace + another menace = total chaos
-I’m not kidding. Literally one second can not go by without the Flags thinking ‘oh dear. What’s going to happen next.’ They couldn’t be more thankful to have Pianoman as the leader since he is pretty effective at calming the both of you down
-Albatross admires your smartness, especially how it has saved both of you a lot of times. He thinks it’s hot whenever you manage to predict the enemy’s actions, and even outwit them. Not to mention you were great at getting information too
-Loves showing his vehicles to you. Let’s be honest, you’re not the best at driving (Canon Dazai sucks at driving) so Albatross is always the driver. Most likely drives you around on his motorcycle while blasting music everywhere. He will also be more than happy to teach you what he knows about vehicles too
-Now deeper into the relationship, Albatross is concerned about your interest in suicide. He asks Doc for some advice to help you, but most of the time he’ll direct your attention away from your suicidal tendencies by taking you somewhere to do something fun
-^Y’know how he shows up at 4AM to drag Chuuya somewhere? Expect that a lot when he’s dating you. But it’s worth it because he’ll always prepare the best outings and the best surprises
-He is shocked when he finds out about your past. But he increases in the affection and comfort x10, and his hugs are tighter and longer now, because he’s afraid of losing you. Afterwards, he immediately hunts down the people/person who dared to abuse you and takes care of them himself (even shuts down their business)
-In the calmer moments, Albatross will comfort you and cheer you up if you were having suicidal tendencies/thoughts again. Even if you may not show it outright, he reads you better than other people and knows just how to comfort you. He’s not that big on words, so he’ll give you lots of affection
-He’ll always be there to cheer you up, so please trust him. It hurts him to see you closing yourself off from everybody. If you completely trust him and show it to him, then Albatross is going to be the happiest man alive
Doc:
-Also another one who found you to be quite interesting. He’s met and saved a lot of people who begged him not to let them fall into death’s grasp. But you willingly chased after death, even going as far to asking your enemies to kill you
-You definitely asked him to kill you a lot of times, including the first time you met him. Doc was amused, but he didn’t want to risk Mori’s wrath, so unfortunately he couldn’t grant what you desired
-It still didn’t stop you from asking him to poison you or use his scalpel on you. When it became evident that he wasn’t going to do those to you, you even searched high and low in his office and bedroom and managed to find some of his deadly poison. Pianoman stopped you from drinking it though, while Doc just watched in quiet amusement
-Over time, you had developed an interest in the man. His odd personality was attractive to you, not to mention his astounding knowledge on the human body made you even more curious about him. It wasn’t long before both of you fell for each other and got into a relationship
-Okay now Doc is going to be much more concerned and protective over you once you became his S/O. He hides all of his surgical tools and medicines and poisons from you in fear of you searching and finding it for your suicidal antics
-Think of this as ‘smart and hyper’ x ‘chill and smart’. When you weren’t being mischievous, you would actually help Doc brew some of his poisons, even adding some extra components to improve the substance. Because Doc isn’t as physically strong as the other members of the Flags, he would need a lot of easy-to-equip-and-use poison for his missions
-When you told him about your abusive childhood, he just kind of... froze. While he is a doctor, he isn’t a psychiatrist and he can’t really deal with emotions per say. He hugs you without saying anything, but you can feel the comfort in his hug
-Doc would teach you about the human body so that if you ever got hurt, you could heal yourself. Or you could use that knowledge to defeat your opponents more efficiently. Definitely not going to use it for your suicide attempts... right?
-Oh, and you also indulge with him about his morbid fascinations. Did I mention that ADA Dazai can be dark when he wants to? Well, let’s say that the rest of the Flags are creeped out by what you and Doc talk about sometimes... yes, creeped out even for a mafioso
Iceman:
-When you asked him to kill you, he just blinked. While he didn’t show any outward reaction, internally he was kind of confused. In his line of work, people normally asked him not to kill them, yet here you were asking him to actually assassinate you
-I feel like this can go two ways. He’d either question why and decide not to kill you because he can’t see the point, or you would convince him enough to pick up whatever item was near him, only for Pianoman to tell him that you were only joking you were not
-Iceman doesn’t really show a lot of reactions to your suicide antics. Okay well he does panic a little internally whenever he sees you go off and throw yourself into another river, but he just maintains a calm aura because he knows you’ll come back anyways
-This is kind of an ‘opposites attract’ couple. You were energetic and silly, he was calm and collected. You were more of a thinker and planner, while he was more ‘go-with-the-flow’. Despite these differences, I can see the relationship actually working out
-Iceman actually secretly stops your suicide attempts a lot more. Don’t ask how he does it; he’s great at sneaking around. When you’re about to hang yourself, you’d find the rope frayed to the point of breaking. When you’re about to electrocute yourself, you’d find that the power is turned off. When you’re about to eat some poison mushrooms, you’d find that they were replaced with harmless enoki fungi. Basically he thwarts all of your suicide attempts because he doesn’t want to lose you
-But this doesn’t really affect your relationship with him. You were still your normal happy self, and you loved a good challenge. But your love for Iceman was greater than your love for suicide; even though you were a bit annoyed every time you failed to kill yourself, you were secretly glad that you got to spend more time with him
-Apart from your suicidal antics, your happiness and silliness brightens Iceman’s day. He can be a bit too chill sometimes, so he looks forward to whatever mischief you plan because they make him smile. And making him smile is a hard feat... the Flags are kind of surprised when he did that
-He is aware that everybody in the Mafia don’t have the best backstory, but it still doesn’t stop him from teaching a lesson to the people who hurt you. You were smart enough to know what he went to do when he came home late one night, but you weren’t mad. You just hugged him quietly, and he hugged you back so cute
-Power couple that even people in the Mafia fear. Due to your intelligence and Iceman’s resourcefulness, you two are unstoppable. Mori often pairs you two together because of your effective teamwork with him
-Iceman has endless patience for those he cares about and loves, so he’ll never get mad at you for always trying to suicide. Yet he does wish that you’ll stop, because he doesn’t want you to die
Lippmann:
-He found you to be very weird and eccentric. Your suicidal antics and energetic-ness kind of scared him, but he hid it well and dealt with you politely. He is an actor afterall, and his silver tongue was on par with yours
-You know how he is canonically described as ‘beautiful in both male and female clothing’? Well because he is so beautiful, he was the target of your flirting and suicidal antics a lot of times. Literally couldn’t go a day without you asking him to kill you or double suicide with you
-But your compliments and pickup lines did fluster him a lot. While he normally reciprocated with another pickup line or simply said a ‘thank you’, boy are you making his heart beat at 205 bpm. However, his pickup lines are smooth asf that they also made you quite flustered internally
-I can see Lippmann being attracted to your energetic and silly aura, as well as your intelligence. Even though your suicide attempts lowkey make him worried and stressed, he still couldn’t help falling for you. And you couldn’t help falling for him too because... it’s Lippmann!!! No other explanation required
-He is quite busy because of his Mafia work and acting career, but he still tries to make time for you whenever he could. Mostly so that he can keep an eye on you if you ever try something weird, but he also asks the Flags to watch over you when he’s gone
-Lippmann even offers to let you star in movies with him. You accepted for a few times, and your acting skills were quite good, but you kept trying to suicide with the props on set. The directors and actors were all getting stress lines lmao
-One time you stole his submachine gun. He panicked so much when he saw it missing and quickly took it back from you before you could do anything with it. Then he realised that you had to use the gun for a mission. There was the slightest bit of red on his cheeks, but he quickly smoothed it over you teased him nonstop about it
-I feel like he would also have a talk with you about your suicidal antics, but in a more indirect way. When he learns that it was partly because of your abusive childhood, he kisses you and hugs you and gives you a lot of comforting affection. You definitely notice that he hangs around with you more whenever he could
-But don’t you dare die on him because his heart will break if you do. And I���m pretty sure you wouldn’t want to see a heartbroken Lippmann, would you?
Chuuya:
-Oh gosh
-Help him
-Chuuya definitely is irritated by your suicide attempts every single day, and yells at you for being annoying. You’re so much like that waste of bandages, and honestly it kind of scares him how alike you and Dazai were
-When he realises that he has feelings for you... he is going to be the moodiest person in the entire world. Literally snaps at you whenever he could and rants about you to the Flags, but since you’re great at reading people, you could tell that he was in denial
-In the end, the Flags were so tired of his behaviour that they set him up with you and made him confess. It worked... kinda. Chuuya was internally glad that he got to be with you, but on the other hand he was ready to beat his friends Albatross up
-But when you got into a relationship with our beloved ginger, your suicide attempts had... slightly decreased. Mostly because you didn’t want to stress Chuuya out, but it didn’t stop you from jumping into rivers. Only you didn’t jump into every river that you saw now
-The Flags often teased Chuuya about how he would handle your suicidal antics. Even though he tells them that he could handle it, secretly he is worried and anxious that you’d succeed in one of your suicide attempts. He can’t bear the thought of you leaving him, even though you were still annoying from time to time
-Despite all of this, he can actually handle you better than he thought. Maybe it was because he had so much experience with Dazai, or he was just naturally gifted in that area. Because you’re so much like that mackerel, your teamwork with Chuuya is astounding as well
-When you’re not prancing about finding ways to suicide, your relationship with Chuuya is actually quite chill. Because of your intelligence, you know how to carry a conversation and which topics not to talk about because it would trigger him. Chuuya appreciates how you don’t tease him as much because he has two suicidal maniacs to deal with, along with whatever the Mafia throws at him
-In his soft and vulnerable moments, he does express how much he’s scared of losing you. He’s lost too many people already, please don’t leave him too...
Tumblr media
Rimbaud:
-You definitely scared him a lot in the start with your fetish for suicide
-He can’t help but be concerned for you, and timidly asked if you were alright lots of times. You always replied with a ‘yes’, but Rimbaud still doubted that
-Has a heart attack every time he sees you go off on another one of your suicide attempts. Now Rimbaud wouldn’t really interfere because he doesn’t want to make you mad, but he just wishes that you would stop trying to eat a suspicious-looking plant every time you stumbled upon one
-His quiet and shy nature was what drew you to him. With someone that was soft and precious, yet not afraid to fight, who doesn’t like Rimbaud? I admit I’m a simp for this man
-Okay but Rimbaud cares a lot for the ones he loves. He even goes as far as to put a layer of subspace over you so that you wouldn’t actually hurt yourself or succeed in one of your suicide attempts. He was a bit scared that you would be mad at him, but when you told him that you weren’t angry, he was pleasantly surprised yet still a bit weirded out
-He admires your intelligence as well. Now he wouldn’t ask you too much for favours, because it makes him feel bad, but if the situation called for it he would ask for your assistance. Afterwards he will thank you and give you lots of soft affection
-Deeper into the relationship, he actually grows more worried for you, but he doesn’t dare to ask you why you wanted to suicide. But you’re giving him multiple stress lines and heart attacks each time you jump into a river... please stop ;-;
-But in his soft and vulnerable moments, he begs you to not leave him. Rimbaud deserves love, so please give him all of your love. In return, he will reciprocate it for eternity ❤
I hope you enjoyed this progressively-getting-worse essay that took me 2 weeks to write. But it was fun!

poppy war thoughts, aka this book was so bad it made me want to get a goodreads account just so i can shit on it in an official capacity
so what initially sold me on this book, is that despite my friend ellis absolutely hating rf kuang's babel, ive only ever seen raving reviews for it anywhere else, and a brief description of its magic system reminded me of gergő és az álomfogók. i love that mainstream fantasy is finally starting to rely on drawing from cultures other than the sort of western mainstream and i was actually super excited to get into it. well it sucked (this contains spoilers obviously)
its 11 am this is not gonna be very structured but let me start off by listing some things i did enjoy. first of all its low hanging fruit and im better than this so im only gonna shit on tpw for being so directly about the sino chinese war that the only actual interesting bits of exposition in the book was what was just a description of actual events a Little bit. listen lotr is about ww2. its fine its all fine. anyway, i had fun with the bits of worldbuilding that were yk, actually worldbuilding. the magic system was really interesting and just super not explored enough, the book handled drug addiction about as sensitively as the dare program, but nevertheless it was a cool concept. shamans who have to get high as hell do do anything and then putting those guys in a combat setting is crazy. really fun concept. speaking of shamans i loved jiang. his archetype is impossible to fuck up and he was loveable and fun till the very end. uhh what else. the fight descriptions were good its something kuangs is decent at, as someone whos watched just truly an inordinate amount of wuxia as a child i rly can appreciate a stupid convoluted fight scene. oh i found it hysterical that the west was just one country that was really fun.
NOW ONTO THE SHIT I HATED
rin is incredibly unlikeable i know its not the point of every book ok but tpw isnt good enough to have a protagonist who is just impossible to relate to this isnt 1984 okay this is contemporary ya. i GET that she sucks and thats the point but im supposed to emphatize with her and throughout the book she just seemed stupid and easy to manipulate and not very interesting. shes an incredibly shallow character which is i guess what happens when you base your ya teenage girl protagonist on CHAIRMAN OF THE COMMUNIST PARTY MAO ZEDONG. HELLO. anyway. all her personal relationships are very much carried by the strenght of the characters close to her, and because most characters in this book are not very interesting that makes for a shitty fucking protagonist.
most of the conflict in this book is extremely artificially generated until maybe the second half of part 3. everyone in rins life is unnessecarily mean to her because shes just so smart and good at things. the part where they accused her of cheating on the exams and she owned them like crazy came to define much of the book. some kind of mean cunt whose purpose in life is to cause misery is an asshole to rin bc shes so smart and strong and talented, and she owns them with a witty remark. she punches nezha on the first day of school for fucks sake.
speaking of the school, the majority of the book is spent at sinegard academy and it is an extremely predictable and dull affair. i long for the wizard of earthsea. kuang is not a very good writer on a technical level and everything that she tries to imply she ends up spelling out (usually by having a character say it out loud) only a couple pages later. you can get through 2/3rds of this book by just reading every other page and correctly guessing what has happened and what will happen. in possibly the funniest paragraph of part 2, rin thinks about how everybody thinks altan is the coolest guy and yet he has no friends and at this point shes been experiencing quite severe racism from all of her peers and then instead of leaving you to figure out the quite obvious conclusion kuang literally has her say "oh his skin is dark and mine is too. i wonder if he knows what racism is like" just, truly hysterical.
her feud with nezha is unbearable, i knew immediately that he would become a romantic interest because a ya protagonist cannot hate a boy for perfectly good reasons. it always has to be bc shes horny. anyways thankfully when she starts studying with jiang, jiang is there and the terrible dullness of it all is lifted somewhat
as i mentioned before, the actual historical elements in the book elevate it greatly and the third part is almost enjoyable in some sections. however, unfortunately, this is also the part of the book where rin and altans darkling situation begins. i have a sinking feeling altan may not have died, which sucks because i hated this bit. they have virtually no relationship to eachother except altan yelling at rin occasionally. now again there were bits and pieces of their relationship that i didnt quite hate, but honestly i still dont entirely buy the rin is a seerly thing emotionally because she is so detached from it. the revelation only seemed to shock her a little bit and then she was busy with being at war and her boss hating her, when she actually gains the power of the phoenix at the very end its her own hatred and egoism fueling her rather than any connection to her people. overall this again comes back to her being quite weak as a character, and the worldbuilding suffers as a result of that
in any case, ill mull over continuing the series. the ending was actually quite strong i love a genocide as a result of being a stupid fucking 19 year old (dont quote me on this please), so maybe the next one is better maybe ms kuang learned to write inbetween these 2.

Back with more soul eater au . Sun eater. Omori eater. Uhh. Soul omori.
Anyways me ranting about this au down here .
First, soul eater premise so I don't confuse people!
"Death City is home to the famous Death Weapon Meister Academy, a technical academy headed by the Shinigami—Lord Death himself. Its mission: to raise "Death Scythes" for the Shinigami to wield against the many evils of their fantastical world. These Death Scythes, however, are not made from physical weapons; rather, they are born from human hybrids who have the ability to transform their bodies into Demon Weapons, and only after they have consumed the souls of 99 evil beings and one witch's soul."
Omori spoilers probably too
------------------------------------------------------------
Aubrey, Hero and Sunny are all meisters! What does that mean? It means their job is to turn their friends into death weapons, they're all partners and fight together!
Sunny: Sunny wants to become a miester for his sister, he's only doing it because Mari wanted him to be by her side and not leave him alone.
Hero: His parents wanted him to be born a weapon but since he never did he still wanted to do something so he became a meister and wants to be one of the first to make one of his friends (Mari) a death scythe. Hero prefers using Mari's scythe form the most since their wavelengths get along the most and they're just both good as a team.
Aubrey: She always wanted to be a weapon, it sounded the coolest to her but she is just a human. But, she can see souls! What does that mean? It's called Soul Perception, Aubrey herself possesses a keen sense of soul perception in which is due to the fact that she possess greater courage then others when fighting fear. Not only can she sense souls herself, but also attributes and estimated capabilities and later even the emotional state of others. (I totally didn't copy and paste what soul perception means) Aubrey is extremely jealous of Kel due to the fact he can turn into different weapons and she can't even be one. (Will get into Kel soon.) Aubrey and Kel are the best pair but also cannot work together. Their wavelengths never match and they can barely use soul resonance, when they fight their souls reject each other which causes Aubrey's hands to burn and Kel to feel very ill and his nose bleeds. Aubrey's hands are burnt because of how many times this happens!
------------------------------------------------------------
Mari: She is the only Scythe in the group! She is a perfectionist and her soul is the most determined out of everyone. Mari can actually use her scythe as a piano!
Basil: Basil is gardening shears! (Yeah I know, real original) When he and Sunny first paired up they had a fight over trying to do witch hunter (a fighting technique to kill witches) and Basil accidentally hurt Sunny and now Sunny has less eye coordination! Basil works best with Aubrey because of how long the two have been working together. (I'm still considering giving Basil black blood so he can be stranger but I don't know.)
Kel: (Kel's weapon choice was hard for me so I did just take another character's abilities and gave it to him but it works well with him.) He is classified as a "shadow weapon" who has the power to transform into a variety of ninja weapons including a kusarigama, a shuriken, a ninjatō, knife and a smoke bomb. His ability was passed down by previous family members. His parents wanted it to be for Hero but they couldn't control that! Kel can use his soul to resonate with whoever wields him! It reflects his character and how he can befriend anyone. Each person has a preference of Kel's weapon ability that they like to use. Mari uses Kel's smokebomb form, Aubrey uses his Kusarigama, Basil uses his Shuriken, Sunny uses his knife form (obviously) and Hero uses the ninjatō! Hero is the only one who can use it, its full name is the uncanny sword. One of the Uncanny Sword's known abilities is "Soul Possession", in which exploits the fears in people's hearts to possess the body and soul of the person who carries it. In the end, it absorbs the person's soul entirely. Another is Shadow Manipulation, the Uncanny Sword is capable of controlling a meister's shadow at will for a variety of effects. Hero is the only one who can use this weapon form because using it takes the users soul and Hero has the most experience with this form.
All of them are a group and switch between using each weapon because they can't pick only one pair together (by them I mean me)

novem-bur day 25: amogus. fwiatc edition! me when the uh. when the impostor is sus haha anyways words r lyrics from "scapegoat" by ghost and pals and uhhh. dont ask why the guy from among us is like the angstiest bur in fwiatc but also im going to tell you anyways (under the cut !)
prompt list
fwiatc link
um. so this is imp (short for 'impostor') and [REDACTED] (he has a name but its not revealed yet because he. hasnt talked to anyone but imp in the fic yet unless you count when editor saw him which i absolutely dont. anyways) and theyre the burs from among us ! yes burs plural . bc imp is the Impostor and [REDACTED] is the Crewmate and i made among us worldbuilding bc i love science fiction a normal amount. so basically "impostors" (thats what humans call them), aka what imp is, are a 'hostile' alien species who 'possess' and kill other intelligent species, mostly on cargo ships ! the reason for this is. not yet revealed in fwiatc technically but one can kind of draw conclusions. but the main driving factor is what you see in the background of this art- a star getting sucked into a black hole. yes thats a black hole In my defense no one really knows what they look like ! anyways the 'impostors' are shape-shifting alien parasitoids who infect and take over a host in order to Do Their Job. and originally imp was supposed to be like a straight-up antagonist whos like rly bad and a murderer etcetc and he Is a murderer he kills [REDACTED] (different guy. spoilers lmao) but i made myself emotional over him and now hes just a silly little guy with a million identity crises because i said so!
uhh TLDR i made among us backstory, got attached to the murderer i made, and now imp and [REDACTED] are two of my favorite burs. i love them and i need to run them over with an 18-wheeler

yoohoo! i remember you had a robin pfp somewhat recently, so... could you do the character bingo with her?
YEAH I WAS VERY EXCITED TO MEET ROBIN WHEN PENACONY WAS FIRST RELEASING !! she, firefly, and misha were the ones i was most excited to meet :D so to celebrate I had Robin as the theme of my blog for a little while ^ w ^
blank character bingo
Tumblr media
uhh to be safe! i shall put this under the cut but some hsr 2.0 spoilers :D (ik we're on 2.1 rn but still! to be safe!!)
i'd like to stress on the SQUEAK panel because the way that the ending of 2.0 had me go insane that i 100% all areas in penacony in hopes to find clues about WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO MY GIRL NOOOOOOOOOO WHAT THE HELL
I refused to accept that she died and wanted to understand WHAT happened which inevitably turned into me searching and finishing all the missions in Penacony and 😭 I still have zero idea what happened. and I mean. technically 2.1 gave us the answer about what happened, but that doesn't explain how people die in this dream when usually if people die, they just wake up back in the Reverie
SO WHAT HAPPENED TO ROBIN??????
I think she's really interesting though, even if we only get to know her through word of mouth - which is. kinda fitting for an idol like her. You only know her image, not the person she is. You could even meet her former teacher who envies Robin stealing her spotlight, and how Singer mentions that Robin and The Family had some argument or conflict between each other. It made me wonder if that's the reason why she left to be a Galaxy known singer rather than staying in Penacony since she only came back because of that.
Hmm... Now that I'm here. There was this thing about Robin being an Emanator for Harmony because she was said to be blessed by Xipe themself for such a talented voice and how Penacony was just Obsessed with Robin to the point that uhhh I forgot her name but the NPC who follows Idrila was just sick of being under Robin's shadow as well.
If Robin had gotten into a fight with The Family, I wonder if her leaving and returning may have been the cause for her voice to be Weird (I don't understand), getting her powers revoked and all that.
All this next to her song "If I Can Stop One Heart from Breaking" really fits the "bird in a cage" imagery that her splash art has WHICH MAKES ME ADORE HER ALL THE MORE I LOVE BIRD IN A CAGE IMAGERY SM (SHAKES HER)
The other thing I did while coping was start questioning "why is it that Firefly and Robin had to die in this?" I mean, albeit, both deaths have different modus operandi, where Firefly's body dissipated (which is what I anticipate will happen too with Sunday's) and Robin's didn't. And I reflected a bit more on Firefly's monologue regarding why do people dream/sleep, in which the answer was "because they're afraid to wake up." That whole scene was played out with Robin's song in the background which ALSO is all about how with no other choice, the character of the song has no choice but to dream of freedom that they weren't given -- to not face that reality.
Put both of those together -- that Firefly and Robin both stood for the freedom dreams can give and that both characters wind up dying in 2.0 -- I sorta thought about the dream of Penacony crashing down entirely.
But maybe it's also that having both die is just the counter to this question that hangs over Penacony arc: Why do people sleep? since it repeats itself too in 2.1 :]
So I just. I like Robin through the things I've collected about her but also what she may have stood for in the realm of the Penacony arc in its entirety.
I really hope to pull for her when she does come out though :D I was supposed to save my guarantee after losing on Luocha for her but I pulled Acheron asdklfajh So we'll see if I can get her. Ik I'm excited to read more about her character story. And also know whether or not she's actually dead or is that a fake body that we saw.

uhhh question. For the Ben 10 AU. What’s stopping Idia from following his little brother in secret cause of Ghost freak or any other alien good with stealth. Before proceeding to beat the living hell out of Honest Fellow for uhhh brainwashing everyone including Ortho(unless Idia himself somehow stops it). A full blown alien beating up the fox :D! Also in Book 6. Technically Riddle and Idia are there. Epel follows too? What’s stopping Kalim from just following in secret cause of alien powers to rescue Jamil(even though uhh it might exactly work without following Epel and Rook plus Yuu in secret[also how long can he even remind hidden before A, he times out, or B, is somehow found by the staff of Shroud brothers, or C, literally when the whole Styx crisis starts])
Took me a bit to dissect the whole thing and understand from where should I even start... But it will be a bit spread out, so the order of my responses might not beat up with the questions order. Sorry for this. :'3
First up! Chap 6! I only briefly touched chap 6 on Kalim, Epel and Riddle's cases, but for Idia it was a pivotal plot point. Being separate aus, each has their turning point chapter and also the events will differ from particular Au case to other.
Now for chap 6, but make it Riddle, Kalim and Epel's cases.
For Riddle, he doesn't overBlot in his au, so he is on the rescue team, mostly because he had no idea if the Charons were bad guys or not. But with little to no trace of where they were brought, Riddle uses Rook, Epel and Yuu as an excuse to go and save the guys.
He realises too late in what bandwagon he actually broke into, but alas, there's no going back. :'3
For Kalim, he also definitely follows in his au story. He wants to save everyone and also prove Jamil that he's capable of being serious and professional. He gets dispatched on the tower with Leona and Jamil, as such he has Jamil helping with hiding and using the omnitrix. He uses the same excuse as Riddle, just tag along Rook, Epel and Yuu. It's simpler and since his timer is 10 minutes, Kalim didn't know how much it would take to fly there, nor where exactly it was that place.
For Epel, man follows close to cannon at first, but when he is in tower, Rook straight up knocks Yuu out so Epel could go ham with the aliens. Sorry shrimp person. :'3
Now for the stage in playful land event... Some spoilers for the event, so yep :3
Thing is, this time, Idia and Ortho argue about going out. Idia is very against the idea for reasons anyone would have. Ortho just wants to have some fun without the constant worry if a bad guy or some omnitrix shenanigans.
One thing post chapter 6, is that Idia respects his brother's more 'edgy' ideas, but he doesn't really encourage them unless he knows they are actually safe. He knows Ortho wants to experiment and dance around different experiences until he fully has an idea of who he really is and his own agency, but that was a red flag and Idia didn't want some sus fox guy to lure his brother to who knows where.
Definitely, he follows, but because of the 10 mins timer, Idia has to play the 'I'm joining too' card, which yeah... It's awkward af. Ortho was absolutely angry at Idia at first because it implies that Idia didn't trust him at all. But with the suit changes, Idia realised that if something did go wrong, Ortho had 50-50 chances to not have his weapon arsenal on him. Of course, he promised Ortho that he will let him do whatever his heart wishes in here, so he would be basically non-existent.
Idia also knew that after all this, he had to hold a long 'stranger danger' talk with Ortho. He never had it before because these 2 were inseparable, but now, Idia felt like this was 1 mistake he won't repeat. :'3
When the whole puppet gig is up and going, Ortho has to give the right to Idia, but right now, Idia ran off to transform, which thankfully got him out of the curse due to being a full transformation. When he would be de-transformed, the curse would start again, so Idia had to play his cards right if he wanted to beat up the sus fox guy. :D
I think I covered it all :3

So for pittedpeaches three stories what would you say is your favorite scene from each of the three stories (and also would you be willing to draw them as a request or com? *Insert the "take my money" meme here*)
(ppssstt honey, if you'd like a comm their not technically 'officially' open but if u want one dm me on my main and we can talk ;) . ofc if its a request just Kofi's fine but yesyes i would be willing to draw a scene from one of those fics)
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
SPOILERS FOR THESE FICS UNDER THE CUT PLEAS EPLEASE LISTN TO ME WHEN I SAY IF YOU LIKE SPICYNOODLES YOU NEED TO READ THESE FICS AND EXPERIENCE THEM WITHOUT PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OHMYGOD
god pittecpeaches has such good fics i cant-AAAA I CANT CHOOSE ONE.
so i just checked thier profile and i havent read a garden across our collarbone yet-
but out of the two i have read (genus daturam and from three thirty to four) i'd say....
Every part of Red Son which MK touched seemed to burn. The conversations they had that evening played over and over in his head. Red Son wished he could have stayed there forever, eating meals, washing dishes, kissing between intimate talks about parents and inside jokes about metal peaches–
Wait a minute. 
Wait a fucking minute- 
MK had nearly closed the window shut when Red Son ripped it open. “I didn’t know about the peaches.” 
MK stumbled back from the window, clearly not expecting Red Son to come back and say that of all things. “Uhh, what-”
THIS WHOLE SCENE HERE ITS BOTH HILAROUS AND SUCH AN AMAZING CLIMAX TO EVERYTHING THATS HAPPENED IN THE FIC LISTEN-LISTEN- NO GET UR ASS OVER HERE UR GNNA LISTEN TO ME AND LISTEN GOOD OKAY OKAY I NEED TO RANT-YOUVE GOT ME RANTING NOW MOTHERFUCKER/POS
theyve been secretly pining over each other for ages and then redson finnaly realises he's in love with mk and he knows mk doesnt know hes redson (WHICH IS HILAROUS OHMYGOD) and and and he LEAVES
FUCKER TRIES TO LEAVE BC "he loves red, not redson" BOOOIIIIIII
B O I
AND HE GOES OVER EVERYTHING THEY DID TOGETHOR AND ITS ALL BUILDING UP THE EMOPTIONS ARE ALREADY HIGHTEEND IN THE CHARACTERS AND READERS BECAUSE ALL THIS LOVEY DOVETY EXITEMNTY WEVE BEEN WAITING FOR IS FINNALLY HAPPENING ONLY FOR RED TO CUT IT OFF AND NOW HE'S GOING THROUGH EVERY THING IN THE DAY EBECAUSE HE WANTS TO TREASURE THE MEMORY EVERYONE CHATRACTERS AN DREADERS ARE FEELING THINGS AND THEN
O
OH
OH SHIT
THE METAL MOTHERFUCKING PEACHES
THE INSIDE JOKE THAT ONLY MK COULD MOTHERFUCKIN KNOW
i am so normal about this fic * froths at the mouth *
“When I asked you to cut the peaches, you made a joke asking whether they were real or metal.” Red Son climbed back into the house. “But I wouldn’t know about that, would I? So why did you make the joke?” 
MK’s eyes were wide and for a moment, Red Son saw it–the glimmer of realization. As quickly as it came it left, hidden by MK squeezing his eyes shut and laughing. “OH! Well, a long while back there was this race around the city, and the winner got what I thought were the real Peaches of Immortality but was actually–”
“But you didn’t say you made that mistake.” Red Son jabbed a finger into MK’s chest. “You said we did. The only people in that race were you, the Dragon Horse girl, and the Demon Bull Family. So how did we make that mistake?!” 
MK stumbled on the floor, falling flat onto his ass. He stared up at Red Son, chuckling awkwardly. “Uh, well, I just-I guess I just-uhh-I don’t know, I’m tired, and it probably slipped out, there’s nothing to it, you don’t have to worry about it Red S-RED! Red, Red, it’s no big deal–” 
MK was panicking, stumbling on his words, unable to look Red Son in the eye. It only confirmed what Red Son had begun to realize. 
“You know who I am, don’t you?” He looked down at MK.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA WHEN I SAY I FREAKED OUT DURING THIS SCENE I WAS FUCKING SCREAMING
I WAS CHEERING I WAS CRYING ALL THE FUCKING EMOTIONS CRASHING INTO ME AT O N C E
(rereads ur ask....oh you said pick a scene from each of them mkay mkay-
THE HAIR-WASHING SCENE IN GENUS DATURA
First off this is funny af definitly the kinda shit i would write
“Alright. I know you just told me you hate water,” MK turned Red Son, clasping his hands together with a strained smile. “But, I’m going to need you to get into the tub.” 
Red Son’s eyes went wider than noodle bowls. He turned his head to look at the tub, now nearly filled with water. MK could see Red Son’s mouth hang ajar as he turned back to face him. 
No, not face him. Red Son was looking behind MK, but why would he do that? All that was behind MK was the door-
Red Son scrambled for the exit on all fours. 
It took several minutes of shouting and chasing the surprisingly slippery Red Son around the bathroom before MK finally grabbed him. MK latched his arms around Red Son’s waist and pulled him from the ground. Red Son screeched, trying to pry MK’s arms off him. His skin was so hot it hurt to hold him, but at this point MK didn’t care. With a mighty heave, MK tossed Red Son into the bath.
The water splashed out the tub, covering the tiles in a thin sheen. Red Son floundered for a bit, thrashing his arms and legs beneath the water’s surface before emerging with a loud gasp. His ponytail had lost all its gravity-defying heat, now clinging to the back of Red Son’s neck. Red Son shuddered, aggressively trying to wipe the water off his steaming arms. 
HE SCRAMBLED ON ALL FOURS LMAO I CANT I COULDNT BREATHE WHEN I FIRST READ IT
The moment MK’s fingers touched his scalp, Red Son flinched. MK moved his hands away, worried that he hurt Red Son, only for him to let out a whine. “Why’d you stop?!”
“Sorry, sorry, I’m not stopping!” MK laughed. “But, really, you gotta let me know if this is too much for you.” He ran his hands through Red Son’s roots. He could see Red Son’s face scrunch up in surprise, but he didn’t seem uncomfortable. In fact, as MK continued to work the shampoo into Red Son’s hair, he seemed to lean into the touch, his breaths becoming slow, heavy, and relaxed. 
As MK leaned Red Son’s head back to get a better angle, Red Son stared up at him with sleepy eyes, blinking slowly. There was a small, content smile on his face. MK didn’t think he’d ever seen that expression on Red Son’s face before. Red Son’s smiles usually ranged from a maniacal grin to a hidden curl of his lip, but this felt softer, like Red Son’s inhibitions were being uncoiled with each knot MK untangled from his hair. 
It occurred to MK, suddenly, how intimate this moment was. A blush ran up his cheeks at the realization, but Red Son didn't seem to care. He just grinned, dreamily at MK as he washed Red Son's hair. 
This…was nice. 
It was a bit overwhelming, sure. Red Son couldn’t remember the last time another person’s hands were running through his hair like this. Maybe when he was a toddler? Before he learned to wash himself? 
But, it was nice. 
MK’s fingers worked themselves into Red Son’s roots. Every now and then, his nails would scratch at his scalp and it’d send a shock down his nervous system. Red Son didn’t mind it though. He leaned into the touch, a lazy smile stretched on his face. 
Red Son looked up at MK as he worked. His vision had blurred considerably from the crimson jimsonweed smoke, but he could recognize the Noodle Boy anywhere. He still had that ridiculous hair style, and that traffic-cone colored coat, and a grin that haunted Red Son’s lonely evenings. He was unmistakable. 
What was MK doing here? He shouldn’t be here. He was supposed to be kart-racing with Mei right now. If MK was actually here, his parents would probably have found out by now, wouldn’t they? Or at the very least, one of the bull clones would have alerted the other staff. Not to mention, MK was supposed to our kart racing with Mei right now. There was no way he could possible be here.
But Red Son could feel MK’s hands working into his hair, couldn’t he? And MK had carried him up here, had cleaned his face, had thrown him into this atrocious tub full of water. MK was taking care of Red Son. When was the last time someone had taken care of Red Son? Since he was a child? Before he had to learn to care for himself? 
It was so nice. Red Son could live in the feeling of MK’s care forever. It was certainly a good distraction from his burning skin, his foggy brain, the doom which whispered to him in stanzas of half-remembered puffy poetry about death from the crimson jimsonweed, about the images which haunted you into Diyu. 
MK began to wash the shampoo out of Red Son’s hair, using one hand to pour water out of the basin and the other to block the soap from slipping down into his eyes. It was a small act, but one that showed a careful attention to detail that MK rarely showed to anything at all. It was the sort of sweet gesture that told Red Son he was cared for by MK, that he was loved. 
And wasn’t that what had been haunting him for weeks now? Love? 
Images that haunt you/Will carry your soul down/And pass you to ten kings
“Oh.” He whispered. “I see.” 
MK smiled down at him. “What’s up?” 
The candles that hung on the bathroom wall seem to fan MK's face with warmth and light. It almost looked like the light was bursting out from him, like MK's body could only barely contain all the lights in the heavens. But, maybe that was just Red Son's delirious, slowly-dying brain seeing what he always thought of MK. 
“I’m hallucinating.” Red Son murmured.

.:*・°☆. Busy Times Mean Busy Mistakes.:*・°☆.
My link list here
Pairing: Xavier Thorpe x Fem! Reader (I DO NOT WRITE FOR XAVIER ANYMORE. DO NOT SEND ASKS FOR HIM!)
Summary: People tend to expect perfection from Principal Weems. Perfection tends to be what Weems provides. However, some mistakes tend to slip through the cracks of her frantic, stressed-out state of mind after the arrival of the Addams girl.
Warnings: fem! Reader, reader is an outcast but nothing specific about powers is mentioned, 2nd person POV (“you” used when referring to reader), slight spoilers for early episodes including Rowan, mentions bullying in the first paragraph during the mini-backstory, not much interaction with Xavier but I thought it was cute </3 (lmk if there’s anything else I should add)
Word count: 863
Genre: uhh really isn’t one tbh, fluff ig? Nothing super fluffy but it sets room for someone to request part two scenarios so eh
Beta/proofread mostly but I’ve added stuff since then so tell me if there’s mistakes pleaseee
Notes: MY FIRST FIC ON HERE AKSBJSJS- the prompt/idea I was given was provided by the dearest @1-800-olympians thank you for the inspo to start writing <3
Tumblr media
A freak. That’s how many people at your old school would describe you in one word. The word kept bouncing around in your brain, haunting you in your nightmares of past experiences with bullies. When an incident with your main bully went a little too far and you clapped back a little too hard, your parents had finally decided it was time for a change. However, standing awkwardly in front of Weems’ desk, her switching back and forth between piles of paper and sighing exasperatedly every now and then, is not how you expected to see your new principal when first walking into the office.
“Uh… Principal Weems?” you say, getting her attention.
She tenses lightly, jumping at the sudden sound of your voice. “Oh! I’m so sorry, I hadn’t noticed you were there,” she chuckles lightly as she looks up at you. “Er- Y/n L/n, is it?” You nod in confirmation. “Second mid-year acceptance. Impressive records in terms of grades but questionable record,” she reads off a small description of you from the paper on top of a certain stack. “Right then, give me one moment.” She begins shuffling through the papers looking for your schedule and room assignment.
Checking over the paper, she notices she has yet to assign you a room. Muttering an apology under her breath about her messiness being unusual, she looks at the list of rooms empty. or partially empty, and assigns you the first one she sees, not bothering to check which hall it’s in nor the other occupant.
“There you are,” she says as she hands you the paper. “Enid will meet you in the front hall any moment now to show you around the school and you’ll start classes tomorrow morning. That ought to give you enough time to unpack and settle in,” explains the tired-looking principal. You thank her and make your way to find the werewolf showing you around.
————————
“And lastly, the courtyard! This is where basically everything happens,” the cheerful girl explains to you. “Not to mention the best place to find gossip for my blog,” she leans in and whispers to you as if telling top-secret information.
“Got it,” you laugh lightly, nodding at the girl. “So that tour showed me most of the classrooms and dorm halls, but can you tell me where this hall is?” you ask her, pointing to the hall on your schedule. The wolf furrows her eyebrows in confusion. “What…? What’s wrong?” you ask her.
“Nothing, it’s just…” she grabs the paper and moves the text closer to her face, muttering, “why did she assign you to that hall?”
“What’s wrong with that hall?” you copy her tone.
“Well technically nothing is actually wrong with the hall, it’s just weird she put you in it,” Enid explains, shrugging and handing you back the paper. Despite the weird reaction, she still points you in the direction of your dorm as the bell for the rest of the students to go to class rings. “See you in classes tomorrow!” she waves to you, running off to catch up with a black-haired girl and a guy in a beanie. After waving back, you make your way to your room.
————————
Unpacking your things took longer than you thought, the end of the rest of the students’ school day happening right as you finish assorting all your belongings. As you wait for your roommate—whom you had yet to get the name of—to get back to the room, you decide to just lay in bed and scroll on your phone.
The door opens a little while after you become absorbed in whatever silliness is on your screen making you fail to notice the boy in the doorway frozen, staring at you, confused.
He clears his throat, making you jump a little. The two of you just stare at each other, him standing at the door and you sitting on your bed.
You take the moment to observe him as he likely does the same. He’s tall. First and most obvious thing about him. Soon after, you see the shoulder-length brown hair. His eyes capture your attention next.
Woah, you think. He’s cute… hold on-
“Who are you?” you ask after a minute.
“I think I should be the one asking that.” After another moment of silence, he answers, “Xavier. Xavier Thorpe. And you?”
“Y/n L/n,” you respond. “Gonna go out on a limb and say Weems has me in the wrong hall,” you state, pulling a light chuckle from Xavier. He closes the door as he steps inside the room finally.
“Guess so. With all that’s happening, I can’t blame her. A lot of crazy stuff is happening right now.”
You hadn’t heard any of what had been going on. With how busy Principal Weems was when you had spoken earlier, you decided it’d be best to bring this problem up to her another time. “Mind filling me in? I’m sure we have plenty of time,” you say as Xavier sets his things down.
“I don’t see why not,” he shrugs, beginning the kooky stories that had occurred as of late.
Maybe the wrong hall assignment could be fun…

He’ll ask you to be his sword, and then years later to be his pen.
uhh hi. your stupid writer anon (🖋️ !) I’m pretty sure I was thinking of scrolling your blog when this line popped into my head so here you go :) I don’t even have any brain worms this works with.
I have. Shamefully not made progress on my lavender piece. I probably need to flesh out the vague “she” because I’m not sure how to further articulate her impact. It may also just be school (math.) so
I don’t mind picking through OC rambles (<- really likes to listen), but ofc don’t do it if you don’t want to /genuine. I don’t really like talking uncontrolled about my characters because then I devolve into keyboard smashes and vague emoji combos (<- cannot articulate strong feelings). It’s helpful for me to bullet point about specific things on them and go back to edit.
I’m glad to hear this has helped you with progressing your Toyhouse (?) entries regardless! I had the vague goal of inspiring (though that’s more proactive than how I felt about it) you to write a little more so happy to hear it helped. And my formal apologies to your followers for sending a long message again…
interesting! it's always a bit disappointing getting ideas without elaboration; you want to use them, but can't (at least, in my case). my first thought was the phrase 'the pen is mightier than the sword'
and here's to both of us not making any progress. i have been busy lately, so everything, this ask included, has been pushed to the side. the time i've gotten here and there to play around with ideas hasn't generated many writing worthy ideas. either way, the downside of my characters being private (they're a part of a story with friends so i want to avoid posting spoilers) is that i can't say much. they, memo and cece and their respective casts, are the only projects i have at the moment. the things i can post versus the things that i have make up that one book(s) meme lol. i'd be happy to answer any questions though, if possible
dw about the long messages, i like reading them and people technically have the option of scrolling by. i wish you luck and hope the workload lessens ^^
