Remus is definitely the most woobified, sugar-coated marauder in fanon. He was so interesting in canon when he was portrayed as a character who was on the good side but with typical villain traits: charismatic manipulator, selfish, gaslighter, etc. His motivations were understandable too. What are your thoughts on him? How do you feel about him in fanon vs canon?
hello 💜 i absolutely agree with you! re remus: i have one super rambly answer here which i still fully stand by. also some more thoughts under a cut so remus fans can skip this one lol
honestly, fanon remus makes me so annoyed i don’t think i can even properly articulate it lol. it’s gotten so bad that people will completely forget how the man acted in the books and then have go and say ‘oh it was completely out of character for him to do x’ when like,,,,no? (i mean, if u don’t care about canon then great, just say that and we’re gucci) like i’ve literally seen people argue him trying to run out on his wife and unborn kid was ooc as if we didn’t get multiple examples of his cowardice (self admitted) and avoidance tactics. like, he was not a saint and he definitely was not a morally upstanding person. he often comes off so much more favourably compared to sirius and james when the man wasn’t any better. all his faults are whitewashed into ‘he was scared of losing the only friends he had’ which is such a shit excuse (even more than the ‘poor werewolf’ one). i once saw someone saying ‘how do you think remus would’ve reacted to harry’s illegal tournament entry’ as an aside to ‘how would sirius have reacted as a free man’ and i remember being completely baffled because…we know how he reacted? which is that he didn’t. the man didn’t even bother to send a letter to harry, didn’t show up before the task when everyone else’s families did, didn’t help him with any of the crises, wasn’t there post graveyard. like, there’s a theme here. remus has no interest in cultivating a relationship with harry (or if he does, he has a very shitty way of showing it). honestly, he’s kind of terrible at relationships in general imo.
i’ve mentioned this before, i think, but also the double standards with which he’s treated coupled with the complete lack of accountability is so frustrating. like, remus can mess up more than anyone else but it’ll never stick. for eg, you’ll have so many people saying sirius treated harry like a second coming of james (and i do blame the movies for that one) but remus’ repeated usage of james as a way to manipulate harry is completely ignored. like that scene in poa is actually cruel. sirius’ forced absence from harry’s life is thrown in his face, but remus is never once questioned. (it’s why him being called a second godfather is a pet peeve of mine tbh). he wasn’t a known werewolf until poa, what the fuck was he doing until then? that’s the thing right, there’s so many gaps in his storyline that u can fill it any way u want. fans will do it favourably, while people like me who don’t like him won’t.
there’s also the whole sirius aspect of it, for me. as far as fictional characters go, i think remus is terrible for sirius. like most people think the exact opposite, yeah? remus is out of sirius’ league, there’s a power dynamic that’s skewed in sirius’ favor, remus’ low self esteem, trust issues blah blah. but i genuinely believe it’ll be sirius who comes off worse in a r/s relationship. so ykno, that just adds to my bias lol.
editing to add: guess it’s the hallmark of a successful manipulative character, though, that he flies under the radar the way he does eh? like that’s the sign of success right there, that he can pull all the shit in the world without it sticking to him so good on him lol

well now i can't stop thinking about reader in a depressive episode bc she's trapped in the apartment refusing to leave the bed or check her phone for texts and the only thing ghost and soap can do is helplessly watch through the cameras..or managing to accidentally hurt herself somehow in an escape attempt and ghost sends a text berating her for it but soap can see he's actually very afraid.. angst potential here off the charts ngl
ugh i looooove good angst. my favorite romance trope is second-chance because there's very little i love more than a man fucking up and begging for forgiveness.
putting a read more here bc im gonna talk about depression and thats a pretty big cw <3
it would be very difficult to not get depressed when they're both gone for days at a time. you'd go from being in their presence 24/7, constant attention, to just nothing for days on end. especially with the presence of the collar and chain at your throat? it would all throw you into a not-quite-person headspace, and that's not great when you're all alone :(
early on you don't like to interact with them. johnny spams you with texts - funny memes, stupid things people have said, things he wants to do when he's back with you - and you ignore him out of spite (except he can see you lunge for the phone every time it buzzes, and from certain camera angels he can see the way you smile when he tells you about something embarrassing simon did). simon doesn't text much at all, that's not a specific to you thing though he's just like that, so he's almost exclusively texting you little scolding messages. smirks when he sees you scowl and pout through the camera :(
they'd be really worried once you stop getting out of bed. even when you're scared of them, there's still a fire there yk? they don't want you to change as a person, they just want to keep you. when you start to give up a little, it would send them into a bit of a tailspin.
johnny worries first (he hadn't noticed first, but he worries first). he sends you a text and you don't move to look at it, which he's never seen happen unless you're asleep or two far away from the phone to hear it. so he spams you, does that thing where he sends one letter at a time so your phone is just making an endless buzzing noise. his heart lodges in his throat when you just roll onto your other side, not even looking at it or shoving it onto the floor.
simon has to stay calm, because johnny's freaking out. he's very worried about you too, but he can't be showing that with the way that johnny's hands shake as he shoves the camera app into his face.
they can't just leave, they've got a contract they've signed promising to complete x y and z, or else they'd be on their way back when you only leave the bed once in 24 hours and it's to use the bathroom. they're snippy and pushy, rude to everyone and each other because they can't help you.
the next morning you get out of bed. ghost shakes soap awake, a rare desperation in his movements as he forces him to look at your shuffling form on the little phones screen.
you're very slow moving, stiff from your day in bed and slow from exhaustion and hunger. you trip over the chain, go sprawling to the ground with a cry that echoes like a gunshot out of simon's phone speakers. you curl up, hands cradling the knee your weight fell on, and you don't get back up.
simon and johnny are gone, immediately. they break contract and just about every traffic law ever written to get back to you, tearing up the stairs at a full sprint like there's a fire on their heels.
you're still on the floor when they get there, haven't moved an inch from where you first fell (which they know, at least one of them has had his eyes on the cameras since you hit the floor). johnny wants to take you to a hospital, but simon manages to talk him down a bit when they see that your knee is only red and a little scraped.
the real problem is in your head. you don't bother reacting much when they burst in, just sort of lay limp and let them do what they want. like a doll.
johnny's cupping your face, squeezing a little too tight and making eye contact with you. he looks frantic. "lovie? c'mon, talk to me. what's wrong, huh?"
simon's stroking over your body with hands that shake, just enough for you to notice. he's leaned against the back of the couch, you between his legs and your back against his chest, legs caged by his.
"give her a second, johnny," simon rumbles, petting up and down your arms in a soothing and consistent movement. "she's alright. just gotta..." he cuts himself off for a moment, swallowing down the lingering panic in his throat. "just need a little love, huh sweetheart? little love and attention, and you'll be okay."
they slowly coax your mind back to your body, steady movements that don't jar or (for once) don't push any of your boundaries. they're warm, murmuring soft praises and kind words.
you cry when you fully come back to yourself, overcome with how comforted you truly feel. you shouldn't. they've kidnapped you, they keep you chained to the fucking floor like a dog when they leave you.
but they're so warm, and so soft. johnny's mumbling into your neck all the things he likes about you (pretty face, soft skin, perfect size, sweetest eyes, cutest expressions) and simon is breathing heavy and deep in your ear, guiding your breathing with his as it grows heavier and heavier.
that night is the first night you cuddle into them. you need them, even if they've forced it to be that way. you can't change it now.

monster trio + Law with a partner who calls them a cute nickname for the first time in public & how they would react to it
headcanons
Characters: Luffy , Sanji , Zoro ,Law
Warnings: sfw , fluff
Notes: just writing ideas I had after reading a lot of fanfics this week 😔, not proofread so excuse me for any mistakes
Tumblr media
Luffy
Honestly he doesn't mind it ,he is very affectionate to you in public and you calling him some cute nicknames just feel natural to him he doesn't really notice when you first did
" Luffy! Sweetheart! Don't ! Nami gave us a budget this time!" You tell your captain who's dragging you to a restaurant "(Y/nnnnn)! Come on this look tasty I don't think I ever tried this one!" Luffy plead " 'sighs' alright just this one time baby"
Actually everyone else Noticed and they found it adorable how you both interacted with each others (not Sanji tho he is dying from jealousy and envy)
He personally like to call you sunshine whenever he feel like calling you a nickname,which is rare but he does it whenever he want to get something from u ,with puppy eyes and all
It always work cuz you're a sucker for cute nicknames yourself and Luffy picked a very pure choice 😔
Zoro
At first he is embarrassed by it ,only because he is trying to look tough when you're both out together and you make it very hard for him to keep that act up sometimes
" hm sweetheart, do you think we can get to that shop over there? I think they might have what I'm looking for!" you tell him as you drag him with you,Zoro cheeks look slightly pink as he sees some old women calling you both cute couples,he is too stunned to speak so he simply follows u like the sweetheart he is
After that ,he tries to get used to it really by choosing a nickname for you as well ,so he can call you by it in public
He chose "Kitten" and "bear" ,truly depends on his mood,he isn't good at this nicknames thing but he is trying for you
He still blushes when you call him any cute nicknames no matter how long you have been together<3 this man is very sweet at heart
Sanji
He dies he Is very flustered when you do that ,you made this man so happy his heart busted out of his chest and he fell on his knees, you're so cute calling him a nickname Infront of people????
" Sanjiiii I'm tired of walking can we stop for a moment? " you whine as you walk next to the cook who is holding most of the groceries that is needed for the ship "oh alright Sweetie! You should have told you were tired ,we could have stopped at the coffee shop!" He tells you with a rather sweet tone,you smiles at him "thank you for stopping babe,to be honest I didn't think the way back to the ship was that long-" everything else you say to him next is a blur because his brain stopped at hearing you calling him Babe ,like woah fr? You like him like that? Ofc u dumbsweetheart you both been dating for months he actually goes down to his knees as he cry in happiness ,going back to the ship might take a bit longer than you thought
He Doesn't mind ,he actually loves it,he love to call you pet nicknames and the fact you do now yourself? Like yeah ,he feel like achieved true happiness ,like please call him all the cute nicknames ,please ,he want it to be an everyday thing
He enjoys the new nickname thing very much ,he hope you both upgrade it to something Spicer (holding hands in public)
Law
" hey Lovebug ,can you grab some strawberries from that shop for me? I need to go grab some fish for bepo " you tells him with a smile as you walk away "alright (y/n),be careful" he reply back without actually registering what actually just happened ,but as he pick the strawberries for you ,his brain hit him with the realization,oh
Ngl this man is very stoic(at least tries to be) a slight blush appear on his cheeks as he realize what you called him,a rather cute nickname , lovebug? Should he asks why you chose that to be exact or act cool like nothing happened????
He pick the latter (actually not).he decide this is a new step to your relationship with him,he will start calling you "love" as payback
Which isn't so bad as he think it is,you find it nice ,he is trying and it's admirable for sure ,he will try to come up with a creative nickname for you later on so be prepared for that
He did ask you months later why do you call him love bug and the fact you told him it's because of how he cling to you whenever you both hug made him a bit flustered , you're really cheesey ,smh ,he loves u to death

Hi, how are you? Do you mind if I suggest you an idea?
I'm wondering, what would happen if Jurion really fell in love with another girl (reader) and not Jiyoung? The reader is as awakened as he is, but with a contented, rare control of his powers. For example, Veramonte wanted to gain such rare control of powers and offered the reader’s family an arranged marriage with Jurion. He has no choice but to take it for granted and become a husband for someone who will not love him, and he is unlikely to love him, because he is desperately in love with Jiyoung. I would like to see how Jurion ends up falling in love with the reader, but he struggles with his feelings, because he loves Jiyoung, but she does not share his feelings, and the reader, no matter how you look at him, shows sympathy for him.
Summary: Being in a arranged marriage with Jurion while he's still in love with someone else
Notes: hey ngl these past weeks have been stressful & i'm procrastinating like crazy but other than that i'm doing alright & i hope you are too! thanks for the request🫰🏾
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
• Veramonte considered you as a potential partner for his son Jurion as soon as he heard that you reached the world's top 100. His good impression of you only solidified after he saw how you carried yourself in person
• He wanted Jurion to move on after his proposal was rejected by Shinwha's president Jiyoung, so he proposed your family an arranged marriage
• Jurion and you were not excited by this union. You because you simply wanted to spend your life with the person you love, which was obviously not Jurion, and Jurion because he was in love with another woman
• You felt like you were a replacement. But no matter how upset you were, the union was beneficial for both families. You both had responsibilities to fulfill
• Even after your marriage talks, Jurion didn't stop trying to win Jiyoung's heart. He would continuously seek her out, each time with another excuse
• After seeing Jurion like this, completely blind in love, you swore to yourself to never fall in love with him. It would only end in your bitter heartbreak and you wondered, would you look like him then?
• Still, you became friends. You pitied him and tried to support his love. It would also mean that if these two got together, you would be free to be with the person you really love. The chance was very small, but still there
• You would always stay by his side and give him emotional support, even after he broke down one day realizing how fruitless his efforts were and how dumb it was to pursue this unrequired love
• Jurion gradually noticed that whenever you were with him, he felt good. You never forced him to do something he didn't want like his father, you never annoyed him like his brother, and you never judged him for his actions like everybody else did
• And when he saw you one time with another man, smiling and intimately talking with each other, he felt a pang in his chest for whatever reason...
• Who is this guy? And, did you look always this good? Why aren't you smiling like that around him? He thought you two were good friends- Wait a second. Friends? No, partners sounds better. Wait what-
• Jurion was struggling with his thoughts, his heart was messing with him. He thought he liked Jiyoung?
• Little did he know that every time you were with him, supported him, his heart yearned more and more for you
• Being so confused, the next time he saw you he blurted out that he thinks he likes you. Which also made you confused because why and how?? Did he even get over Shinhwa's president?
• He said that he wanted to try to be a better partner. Be worthy of you. It was smarter to give up on Jiyoung who already set her eyes on someone else and pursue love with the one who was already his fiancée, the one who he already trusts with his life
• But you didn't want to give your heart to an uncertain man. You wanted to see his actions instead of just hearing his flowery words.
• So Jurion proved himself over time, with actions like checking on you every day or spending time with you and making sure you're having a great time. He made you his top priority, so finally, you gave him a chance to be your boyfriend, or well, your fiancé
Tumblr media
tbh i ran out of ideas towards the end. sorry if this seems all over the place😭 i hope y'all still enjoyed

rosekiller microfic: goldilocks 1,632 words
a bit of soft rosekiller!! this is inspired by @myrows rosekiller art which you can find here! it made me want to weep a little when I first saw it, so naturally I had to write something haha :) ngl this has been sitting in my drafts for a while and it's by no means perfect but enjoy!! <3
Barty has always cherished quiet nights at Hogwarts.
When the chatter in the halls finally dies down enough for his thoughts to come back to him and homework has been carelessly tossed aside to save for tomorrow.
There’s a sense of serenity to it all that Barty rarely finds elsewhere. A break that he craves most at the end of a particularly stressful day.
Sixth year courses have been—to put it lightly, beating his ass—no matter how well he does. Today, it had taken him ten tries to get the nonverbal spell to work in Transfiguration. Ten.
Usually Barty needs no more than six tries for complicated spells, less than that for complex potions. Disregarding that he still did it faster than over half the class, now he’s just fucking tired.
He groans and shoves his schoolbag off the bed, letting it hit the floor with a soft thud, then flops backwards dramatically onto his pillows. The dorm room is dim, save for a few small candles on his bedside table. Cloaked in various shadows that dance around the room from the flickering flame.
Barty closes his eyes, taking a spare second to just breathe. There’s the soft white noise of the shower running in the background—Evan is taking forever, as usual—and sometimes Barty imagines he can hear the push and pull of the black lake against their walls. Lack of windows be damned.
It isn’t long before the water shuts off, and Barty feels the smallest smile tug at the corners of his mouth. It’s just the two of them for now, Regulus off doing god knows what at this hour. So naturally, a lot of built up restraint is needed for Barty not to rip open the bathroom door. To go and take in the sight of a freshly showered Evan and gather him in his arms before he can be stopped.
He’s been in there for less than thirty minutes but fuck it, Barty misses him.
Grumbling, he goes to change into the first clothes he can find. Settling for some years old joggers and a loose tank top, the soft fabric already making him drowsy.
The bathroom door creaks open and his head snaps up, immediately catching Evan’s eye. Barty really can’t help it when his heart skips a beat.
Evan raises his eyebrows, chuckling when Barty takes no subtlety in checking him out. His hair is dry, most likely done by magic. A thin blue t-shirt hangs off his shorter frame and each step taken towards Barty casts golden shadows over his skin.
Looking like everything warm and comfortable; the smell of his shampoo in the air so familiar that it hurts.
Barty’s smirk is wicked when he tugs Evan by his shirt into a light kiss. He makes a startled noise but melts into Barty’s touch regardless, fingers cupping his chin. The kiss is short but effective in making Barty’s head go all fuzzy.
“What happened to hello?” Evan asks when they pull apart—though not very far—now standing chest to chest. Evan’s bare feet fit in between his socked ones.
 Barty makes sure to slather his words in extra charm, grinning. “Hello, gorgeous.” 
“Wow, smooth talker,” Evan deadpans.
“You know you love it, Goldilocks.”
Barty takes a blonde strand between two fingers, tugging lightly at the end and earning him a deep scowl.
“I told you that nickname is stupid.” Evan rolls his eyes but Barty catches the blush high on his cheekbones. A light dusting of pinks and reds that work to compliment his freckles. Barty pokes him on one cheek.
“And I told you I don’t care.”
“Brat.”
Barty hums noncommittally, threading their fingers together. Warmth settles in his chest from the steady weight of Evan’s hand.
He leads Evan past the emerald green curtains of his bed and down onto the soft mattress. It’s a routine they’ve created over the last few months, and every time Barty wraps the covers around them it becomes harder and harder to let Evan slip back into his own bed. Something about having him in his arms means a night free of restless tossing and turning.
They lie facing each other for a few minutes, minimal space between them and their heads resting on one pillow. Quiet voices and even quieter laughs, a sacred bubble that neither of them dare to pop.
“Wait, wait, wait,” Barty laughs, his voice barely above a whisper. “You told Cresswell what?”
Evan frowns, a crease forming between his eyebrows. “I told him…that if he feels the need to keep staring at you in class then maybe I should tape his fucking eyes open. You know, that way he wouldn’t miss it when I inevitably snog you right in front of him.”
“Evan!” Barty can’t help it, his laugh is loud when it bursts from his chest.
“Well, maybe I left out that last bit…”
It takes him a minute before his laughter dies down, the quiet settling back in. “You jealous?” Barty teases, raising an eyebrow.
Evan purses his lips. “No.”
Barty stares at him knowingly.
Silence.
Evan averts his eyes.
“Mhm sure, come here.”
He drags Evan in by his waist, the pair of them fumbling around until Evan’s head relaxes in the crook of Barty’s neck and his forearm rests over his chest. Their sides pressed together, Barty smiles—fully content now.
Wordlessly, Barty ghosts his hand over the warm skin, relishing in the way Evan shivers from the cold metal of the ring on his middle finger.
There’s silence for a few minutes. Evan’s hair brushes the side of his face and his warm breath fans across his chest, their hearts only slightly out of sync as they beat so close together.
It’s a lot for Barty to take in sometimes—the whole idea of them. Having someone so delicate, yet so utterly untouchable, be his. If anyone took the time to ask him, though, he wouldn’t change it for the world.
Barty knows Evan’s eyes are closed, can see the shadow of his eyelashes. He takes the opportunity to trace over his freckles; a messy constellation that follows the high points of his cheeks, crosses sporadically over the bridge of his nose.
Evan scrunches his face up, which should not be so endearing. “That tickles.”
Barty turns his head, placing the quickest of kisses atop of Evan’s forehead, debating whether or not he should just give in and lick the side of his face. Then ultimately deciding against it—Evan did just take a shower—he’ll be nice for once.
“I wasn’t jealous. I don’t get jealous,” Evan mumbles, his voice lulled and tired sounding.
“Of course not, Ev.” Barty resists rolling his eyes, Evan can’t see his face anyway. 
“Besides,” Barty continues, “If you were jealous, I don’t mind you threatening people for me…it’s kinda hot.”
Evan smacks him lightly across the chest, but snuggles deeper against his shoulder. Which definitely does not do a weird flippy thing to Barty’s stomach. Nope, not at all.
“Mm okay,” Evan yawns. Which, Barty can’t blame him. Exhaustion is slowly taking over his body the longer they lie here. At this point all he wants to do is blow out the candles and fall asleep. Keep Evan next to him the whole night.
“Hey Goldilocks.”
“Mhm…” Evan must be too tired to even rebuke the nickname.
“Reg is going to freak out if he finds you here in my bed.”
Evan huffs, not very different from a petulant child. He makes no move to get up or even open his eyes. “I don’t care.”
This time Barty can’t hold back his yawn. He shuts his eyes and allows his body to sink further into the bed. Further into Evan. “Maybe we can tell Potter how madly in love with him Reg is. Then they can finally leave us alone.”
“Payback,” Evan snorts.
They both fall asleep without really meaning to. Tangled limbs beneath the covers and hands that aren’t inclined to let go. As his mind quiets down, something in Barty feels settled. A puzzle piece slotting into place after searching and searching for the edge that matches. Evan tends to have that effect on him, he’s come to notice.
All is quiet for a while, the whole school in a coinciding state of slumber. A time when portraits snore softly and only ghosts roam the halls, the usual lively presence of magic at bay for now.
But not even thirty minutes later they’re awoken with a loud thud and a significantly darker room—Barty had blown the candles out after all—just in case.
“Lumos,” someone whispers.
Regulus stands at the end of Barty’s bed, hands on his hips and a look of annoyance on his face. His wand is now lit and shining far too bright for Barty’s liking.
“What the fuck, Reg?” he asks groggily. Evan groans beside him and tries to hide his face.
“Not my fault I tripped over your fucking books, Barty,” Regulus hisses. “And you guys are gross. You said no PDA in the dorm.”
Barty squints and gestures for him to lower his wand. Regulus does so slowly. “Yeah, well I’m a fucking liar. Let us sleep.”
It’s with a lot of grumbling and a sharp glare that Regulus turns and stalks to his side of the room. When he shuts himself in the bathroom Barty reaches for his own wand and spells his curtains closed.
He has Evan back in his arms in no time, steady and real and here. Absolutely not going anywhere, if Barty has a say in it. His fingers resume their path over his arm, tracing nonsensical shapes that neither can decipher. Before they both drift off again a thought pops into Barty’s head.
“We are definitely getting him back for this.”

☰ for Monday, with the “who did this to you” trope? Love your fics <33
(from the fic ask game)
HI ANON i am so sorry this has taken me a million years to answer, i started weirdly overthinking it??
my understanding of the ‘who did this to you?’ trope is it’s very hurt/comfort-centric, which is not a genre i write very often (hence probably why i overthought this for so long lmao).
if i was to approach a remix of monday from this angle i think i’d like to do it from lando POV and explore more of why he’s so insecure and why it takes him so long to trust that oscar genuinely really likes him and isn’t just looking for a quick fuck to take the edge off. there’d be more of a focus on lando’s past relationships and in particular how he went from being a slightly nerdy kid (like, he looked twelve until he was about twenty) to suddenly being a millionaire heartthrob with a huge social media following. but he also self-describes as a simp (in the lando norris vs slang video) and clearly wants to be in a “real” relationship rather than just fucking about, so i’d look at what happened to him to make him so cautious with his heart.
proooobably this would end up with past dando or carlando? i have a mild aversion to carlos so i’d probably go for fuckboy daniel ngl.
i think it’d take oscar quite a long time to actually get round to asking lando what happened — partly because he’s got a bit of an attitude of “well, lando will tell me in his own time if it’s important to him” but also because there’s a bit of him that doesn’t really want to know, especially because he’s got a pretty good idea it involves another driver. he’d probably bring it up pretty idly, in the end — lando would make some veiled comment about how netflix would have creamed their collective pants if they’d known the half of it while oscar’s scrolling past DTS trying to find something to watch, and oscar would very casually… actually, y’know what.
Lando feels Oscar go still next to him and mentally kicks himself. Might’ve known Oscar wouldn’t let that one drop.
“So are you, like.” Oscar wets his lips and shifts on the bed, curling up so Lando’s tucked further into his chest. Lando presses himself back, drawing Oscar’s arm around him. “I dunno. Did something happen? With Dan.”
Lando closes his eyes, considers his options. It’s tempting to squirm back against Oscar’s body, press his arse into his crotch and slip Oscar’s hand under the hem of his T-shirt until he forgets the line of questioning, forgets he was saying anything at all. It’s mad, really, the way he responds: Lando only has to pull his shirt up, bite his lip a certain way, and he’ll have Oscar distracted and reaching for him, even now. It’s been months. Lando’s experienced it before, that first flush of desire when he can use his body to control how someone feels about him. It rarely lasts, though, once the novelty wears off.
Which is sort of the point.
He sighs, aware it sounds a bit huffy, and picks up his phone so he can flick through his notifications while he speaks. “I mean, I guess? It was just stupid, though.”
Oscar breathes behind him, slow and deliberate. He hums into Lando’s hair, strokes a thumb over the ticklish spot on Lando’s waist, the dip just above the ridge of muscle that delineates his hip.
Lando swipes through notifs from Discord, Instagram, iMessage, WhatsApp, Reddit, Sky Sport. Dismissing each without seeing it. He laughs, and it comes out all wrong, harsh in the back of his throat and defensive. God. Wet as fuck. “It was just — I mean, he was fucking miserable, you saw him. So I guess he just wanted a pick-me-up, y’know.”
“Right,” Oscar says, voice unreadable. He’s so fucking blank sometimes. Lando fights the urge to turn round and scrutinise his face, opens his emails instead and starts deleting anything that doesn’t look vital.
“He said,” Lando says, aiming to deliver it as a joke. “‘I’m straight, but I bet you suck dick like a girl anyway’. Like. What does that even mean?”
Oscar’s thumb stills, just for a moment, then resumes its slow path. “I know that’s offensive, but I can’t tell if it’s sexist or homophobic or both.”
Lando makes a disgruntled sound of agreement. “Yeah, well, whatever. It was — whatever. Wasn’t anything.”
“You said,” Oscar says mildly. “But I can see why you’d… Why it’d make you cautious.”
Lando sighs. Thinks of Luisa, showing him screenshots, her face streaked with tears. Watching the comments roll in, badly spelled threats he didn’t even bother reporting. The way Carlos never quite relaxed around him once people started tagging them in stupid ship videos. Googling how do you make someone sign an nda locked in an unfamiliar bathroom, mouth sour with vodka, head spinning. Waking up at 5am in lockdown, Max hyperventilating next to him. The girl from Raya he’d sent flowers to, trying to do the thing properly and be romantic, only to find she’d blocked him ten minutes after he got the Your package was successfully delivered email.
“It wasn’t him,” Lando says, locking his phone and putting it face down on the nightstand. He turns, tangling his legs between Oscar’s and leaning in to nip at his jaw, breathing in the familiar smell of Oscar’s basic aftershave. Oscar's arms tighten around him. His cheeks curve into a smile beneath Lando's mouth. “It doesn’t matter.”

why lyney x aether just makes sense
no traveller ship has ever rlly worked to me (other than ayaka bc it was very heavily hinted in canon) UNTIL TODAY. HERE IS MY FORMAL DISSERTATION ON WHY LYNETHER WORKS
neither of them have pairs - genshin purposefully does this thing where they pair up characters (eg: chongyun & xingqiu, jean & lisa) which is why there are so many popular ships in the fandom. i think lyney's effective pair is meant to be lynette & aether doesnt have one bc hes meant to be a player-insert but that leaves SO MUCH ROOM bc when you think about it the closest thing lyney has to a love interest IS AETHER
siblings - both of them are elder brothers and both are TWINS . they also both have a youngest sibling figure (freminet and paimon; dont tell me paimon isnt a younger sister figure bc if u open a modern au ALMOST ALWAYS she is presented as "aether and lumines younger sister") their backstories are similar (losing their other half) so they canonically understand each other (There's nothing in the world I treasure more than my family, so I know what it must be like for you -Lyney, Friendship LV4) THIS LEADS INTO MY OTHER POINT
the "i see past your mask" trope - this is a very popular trope (and one that ngl kills me everytime i read it bc it preys on the human desire to be fully understood) BUT it was made for lyney . if youve watched ouran highschool host club HIKARU AND KAORUS "we are the only two who understand each other... until haruhi arrived" IS NOT DISSIMILAR TO WHAT COULD HAPPEN WITH LYNEY, LYNETTE AND AETHER . and lyney was BORN to fit this trope bc he already has the whole fake, charming, extrovert persona he puts on. ("Actually, the real me is nowhere near as outgoing or chatty as I appear. (...) I think people would feel sorry for the real me." -Lyney, friendship LV6)
narrative - a big thing about ships is they need to have a faucet for tension . like xingyun is extremely hinted in canon but its nowhere near as popular as kavetham and zhongchi. why? because theyre just childhood best friends. nothing interesting about it. zhongchi especially is hugely popular bc of the potential for reconciliation after the osial arc (zhongli's "im sorry for manipulating you. it wasnt all fake i swear" sorta thing) AND YK WHAT ELSE HAS THAT??? FURINA REVEALING LYNEY AS FATUI IN THE TRIAL "im sorry for lying about my identity. it wasnt all fake" the core that makes ships like satosugu and zhongchi tragic is the betrayal of trust, and, well... ("Nothing could make me happier than having your trust." -Lyney, Ascension 4)
binary opposition - why is satosugu so popular? probably because its the whole 'cruel murderer villain' vs 'strongest hero' trope and audienced like sun vs moon . okay . AETHER IS LITERALLY THE HONORARY KNIGHT OF MONDSTADT, HERO OF LIYUE, ENEMY OF ETERNITY, FIRST SAGE OF BUER and lyney is THE FUTURE SUCCESSOR TO THE HOUSE OF HEARTH . the villain of genshin impact (currently) is the fatui so you cant get better than this.
canon hints - even if ships would theoretically work well and have potential for tension, they need to be grounded in the source material. so does lynether have that?
"Hmm, your eyes are like topaz, precious, pure, and lovely. I like them! I've decided — I'm going to put on a show just for you."
"I thought it was the radiance of the sunlight on my skin that I felt — turns out it was your radiance all along!"
"I should probably emphasize again that I'm rarely so open with anyone — I guess it's because you're not just anyone."
"It seems we're both keenly interested in each other. Well, know that the honor is mine! Haha, relax. I couldn't ever tell lies to your mesmerizing eyes — not even if I tried!"
"Doing all this for me... Are you trying to steal this magician's heart, by any chance? Well, in that case, congratulations, my dear apprentice — or should I say, "companion." For you have succeeded!"
canonically, lyney gets upset when aether thinks abt other things when hes in fromt of him. HES LIKE A POUTING CHILD THAT GOES "pay attention to me!!!" LMFAOO
the rainbow rose, need i say more? lyney literally gets flustered when lynette brings it up too pfft
most of the stuff he says can be attributed to lyney just being a flirt but in cases like the rainbow rose scene where he literally does it BECAUSE HE KNOWS AETHER WOULDNT GET IT... there is no platonic explanation bc if there was, if it meant Friendly Love THEN THE DEVELOPERS WOULDNT HAVE ADDED THE NOTE ABOUT LYNETTE NEVER GETTING ONE considering shes the most important person to lyney...
in conclusion, ive rambled for too freaking long but THEY WORK . AND THERES ALSO POTENTIAL FOR A WHOLE LONG DISTANCE YEARNING ARC BC AETHER ALWAYS TRAVELS SO... FANFIC WRITERS CHOP CHOP

Can I get add the swap and swapfell brothers to the Amalgam request? Maybe even Horrortale?
Of course you can! here's the link to the first amalgram post! I'll just do the Swap and SwapFell brothers for now though.
Blue:
when you go missing he's the first to notice. Both of you text pretty frequently when your not around each other (which is pretty rare in of itself). He visits your home, then your job, then any other areas your known to frequently vist. Getting more and more worried as you remain missing for longer and don't respond to his calls.
He calls Stretch out to help with looking for you, his brother knows a lot of people so they'd both find out pretty soon that you were last seen visiting Undyne.
Blue decides to sneak into Undyne's lab. Though he does think the best, "probably just some medical check up you forgot to tell him about. Nothing big!"
Immediately goes to comforting you when he does find you.
Keeps hugging you even when you try and push him away, apologising for melting over him.
He confronts Undyne he confesses to hiding both yourself and the rest of the amalgamites away.
Blue calls in Alphys to help deal with the situation and re-unite everyone. Then he and Stretch take you back home. He promises to help you in any way.
He tries to do what you want, if you want to find a cure, then he's recruiting Stretch, even a regretful Undyne to the cause. You just want to learn to live again? Yep and he's by your side every step of the way
Stretch:
Immediately suspicious when you just disappear. That's unusual for you. He asks around and finds that a few of his bar friends saw you and Undyne together. Weird, especially cause you don't really know her.
He shoots a text to Undyne asking her where you are. When she starts acting weird, changing subject, ignoring phone calls, asking dumb questions, he gets really suspicious
He goes down into the old lab his father used to work in. Guessing that Undyne still uses it.
Imagine his surprise (and horror) when he finds you, malformed, melting and in constant pain.
He carries you up and confronts Undyne. It's not a confrontation that goes well...
Of course Undyne is heartbroken and riddled with guilt. She had never thought that determination could do something like that.
Stretch keeps you in the lab. Hoping that with him and Undyne's intelligence, a cure could be found quickly.
He grabs things from your home that he knows would comfort you. Blankets, clothes, books, anything that keeps you stable and happy.
Somehow still manages to make time for cuddles.
Black (SF Sans)
boy if you even think you're leaving his eyesight!!!
seriously tho, I can only imagine Black would ever let someone like, euugh, Undyne, if you were in serious trouble.
Likely you had some serious health issues, or maybe you even fell down.
Whatever the case, he was desperate to help you and Undyne's kind of the only qualified doctor they have left. So off you go...
yeah, it doesn't go well. Black genuinely tries to murder Undyne. He takes this not only as a slight against you, but as action against him.
You're under HIS protection, meaning when someone fucks with you, they fuck with him.
Mutt steps in and manages to calm his brother down, pointing out that Undyne may actually be one of the only people to be able to help you.
Black keeps a VERY close eye on you. If you haven't already moved in with him, you are now!
Tasks his brother with keeping you safe when he has to leave.
Mutt (SF Papyrus):
probably the one to fuck up this time, ngl.
He was actually apart of the royal scientists before he left it. Like Black, he wouldn't want any science experiment stuff going on and he tries to keep you seperate from it.
We don't always get what we want though, from one reason to another, bad timing, thoughtless decisions, etc. You ended up overdosing from two much determination.
the guilt almost cracks his soul in two. He can't look you in the eye after what happened.
Keeps you hidden away in the true lab, occasionally popping in when he's either really drunk, high, or holding some new serum that's supposed to cure you.
Poor boy already struggled with substance abuse, this just makes it worse.
When he shortcuts in drunk; he just cries, holding your malformed body and crying apologies and begging for forgiveness.
Then he disappears in the morning when he wakes up hungover as hell and realises what he'd done.

I’m also 100% down for modern dad!Aemond when his daughter starts dating. I’d imagine he goes a lil insane
You ask and I shall deliver (a million years later, but I'll deliver lmao). I'm really happy Aemond's in-universe children & courting headcanons got so much love and I'm thrilled you'd want to see that with Amaelia in my modern au as well! Ngl this was tough as hell because I see her as a little kid every time, but here goes!
Tumblr media
Dad!Aemond dealing with his daughter dating (modern au featuring my oc: Amaelia)
Ok as I said I still see Amaelia as a little girl interested in dragons, pirates, and drawing, so thinking about her growing into her teens was so hard because what would she be like?
For one, I think she wouldn't develop crushes young because she's too into her own little fantasy world, just enjoying drawing and reading, playing with her dogs, getting up to mischievousness with uncle Aegon or gardening with aunt Helaena. And obviously, spending quality time with Aemond and reader. Liking someone from school just never really crosses her mind.
Which honestly thrills Aemond because he gets to enjoy having his little girl all to himself. He thought he wouldn't be like those overprotective jealous fathers, but when he thinks about someone dating Amaelia he does get a little bit insane. If someone were to ever hurt his baby he'd murder them. Seriously.
And I'm thinking that she's very extroverted at home and with her family because she's very loved. She's energetic and just, a very happy child, and I feel like in her school setting she'd be very kind to her peers but despite it all, she'd have a hard time because of her being a Targaryen.
When she starts getting older and children at school are at that age where they get very cruel, they start to project onto her what they hear from their parents. So they start to form this prejudice that she's conceited, snobby, and bitchy because of her family.
It stings and she starts getting more and more introverted and private as she grows, very much mirroring Aemond.
By the time she's in her teens, I can see this scenario happening: the popular kids want her in their cliques because she is a Targaryen - but they're put off by her being so quiet.
I think she'd keep all of her interests from when she was little; she'd be into the arts, and reading, like her dad. Her love for pirates and dragons would maybe lead to her being into like d&d and fantasy novels and movies.
So the outcast kids would want to befriend her, but they'd be intimidated because of her being a Targaryen. (Amaelia I'm so sorry I'm doing this to you ;sldflskjg)
So maybe she'd kind of have two good friends and that's it, not really fitting in in any group.
I can see her having her first crush on one of the popular kids at school, someone from the sports team maybe. A boy from the basketball team.
And he's handsome, charming and quite kind actually. His kindness is the first thing that draws her to him. And when she discovers they have that (1) nerdy interest in common, that's when it starts. Maybe he's also into d&d like she is, unlike the rest of the popular kids. Or he likes this obscure band that Amaelia thought only she knew of, and that's what does it for her. It establishes some common ground for them to talk, and Amaelia is absolutely smitten.
Her crush lasts all through middle school and high school. She talks about him constantly and the first time she brings him up, Aemond is surprisingly more relaxed than he thought he'd be.
He's just really happy that Amaelia feels comfortable and safe enough to talk about those kinds of things with him, and not only with reader. And overall he loves to know more about his daughter's world, and loves getting to know new parts of her every day, as she grows. But he's still a little weary.
He knows first crushes rarely ever transform into something else. And it hurts him, but he knows that his daughter is an outcast. So he's just preparing himself mentally to be there for her when the whole thing crashes, even when he hopes every night that it won't because he can see Amaelia's eyes glint every time she nudges Aemond's arm in the car when he picks her up from school and goes, 'look! there he is!'
You calm Aemond down and tell him that you can't stop Amaelia from getting hurt. You can't just magically prevent it from happening, ever. But what they can do is be there for her when and if it happens.
Doesn't stop Aemond from thinking about ways to get away with murdering a teenage boy as he goes to sleep lmao.
Eventually, it happens.
I'm thinking that, either they were going to meet up and she got stood up, or they went out to the obscure band's concert and he was a total dick to her the entire time. Amaelia is devastated but she kinda saw it coming anyway. More than sad, she's angry.
The next time Aemond drops Amaelia off to school, he sees the boy and he stomps on the pedal of the car to make it seem like he's gonna run him over sdljfglkjslkgj but he stops before actually hitting him. He just wanted to spook him off, and he's so freaking pleased with the frightened look on the boy's face.
Any other time he sees him, when he picks up Amaelia, or during parent-teacher nights or any other school presentation, he's just glaring at the boy so hard. You'd tell Aemond to stop scaring the boy but honestly, you're just wickedly pleased every time. No one hurts your baby.
For prom, you make sure to splurge on the most beautiful dress for Amaelia and treat her to a pampering session so she'll feel super confident on the night of, and so that the boy will see what he's missing.
Amaelia goes to prom with her long-time best friend.
He's also an outcast like her, and people liked to gossip that he always had a crush on Amaelia. And once, while doing a group project, Aemond caught a glimpse of disappointment flashing over the boy's face when he heard Amaelia talking about her basketball crush.
Aemond and you were lowkey watching them during prom, wondering if either Amaelia or her friend were gonna make a move. You were secretly rooting for them, because you'd seen them together so many times, and you knew that there was mutual love there, only they couldn't tell just yet.
Amaelia and her friend end up going to the same college, but in different faculties, and it's through the separation that she realizes that, holy shit, she loves him!
But it's too late. Her friend has changed. He suddenly started getting a lot of attention from girls, and it got to his head.
Aemond really wanted him to be the one, because out of all the douchbags at Amaelia's school, he was always very polite, and treated Amaelia with a lot of care and affection.
So he was very disappointed, but once again, was there to comfort Amaelia. She kinda went into a hiatus of not going on dates at all.
So Aemond ended up going, 'you don't have to worry, baby. I'll be your date. Whatever you want to do, wherever you wanna go, I'll go with you."
And she was like, "I really appreciate it, dad. But it's kinda embarrassing..."
And Aemond is like, "idc I'm taking you out tomorrow, get your nice coat."
Aemond pulls out all of the stops to make this father-daughter day as special as he can. They get some really delicious brunch at a fancy restaurant of Amaelia's choice and then go take a walk in the park before it's time for a movie. After a movie they stop by the bookstore or record store, anything Amaelia chooses. And they end up finishing the day with a very indulgent dinner at yet another fancy restaurant.
At some point during the dinner, Aemond is like, 'Listen, sweetheart. It's okay if you don't feel comfortable dating anymore. It's okay if it takes you a long time to find someone, and it's also okay to try and put yourself out there if it's what you want to do. It's also okay if you don't want to try at all. I want you to know that it's perfectly fine and normal to be alone, and you don't need anyone to complete you. But it's also fine to want a relationship. As long as you never forget that this is how you should be treated. Never ever, go out with someone who will not put in the effort to give you what you deserve. Please, do me this one favor. Never forget this day. If the next person you're interested in doesn't treat you like the princess that you are, they're not worth your time."
Amaelia just rolls her eyes playfully, thinking that Aemond is being a little melodramatic but smiles nevertheless.
"I promise, dad. And don't worry. You'll always be #1 in my heart."
Aemond is dead serious when he replies, "Of course I am." And they both laugh and enjoy their little father-daughter date.

I just read zero for two and I am DYING at how good it was. I was blown away by your talent and in awe of the way the story progressed. ngl I clicked on it because of the stats (I know I shouldn't but I read a string of badly tagged stuff and needed to read something good). I mean a fic less than 10k words with nearly 6k kudos and over a 1k bookmarks? I kind of stared at it like DAMN and then wondered if it would live up to the hype and it DOES. Not only did blow my mind and make me rethink EVERYTHING I've ever known, that plot twist had me gasping and that rarely happens which made me fall in love with it even more. I just need you to know that this will be my favorite story and I will now read all of your other stuff. You have a fan in me!
Whew this made me emotional. I do apologize for the late reply. Each time I tried to post this I wasn't sure I had the right words to express what this meant to me. You are so very kind, and I appreciate that you gave the story a chance considering the type of story it is. I wonder what you might think of my other stories when you read them, but even if Zero for Two is the only thing you read, I appreciate it so much.
I have considered making a sequel or epilogue to that fic, but I do love the way it ended, and I am swamped with stories that need to be written. Perhaps in the future I will write one, and I may need a nudge every once in a while to remind me of that. Thank you again, thank you thank you thank you!
Zero for Two (a tease of power) Draco had always known he was different, special even. He didn’t need his parents to tell him that, because they never did. It was obvious in the way that he could see things that no one else could. He knew things about them that he shouldn’t. The older he got the clearer it became that he was alone in what he could do. Not just in abilities but power, essence, influence. No one could come close. Until, Potter. Draco knew that Potter was different the moment he met him.

@kiemimi wanted to know my opinion and brainrot on the OPLA characters so here some of them :
-> Akagami no Shanks
Tumblr media
No brainrot but very pleased with his actor. Ngl I was a bit skeptical when he first appeared as Shanks. Because this is not how I imagined him to look like irl, and I saw multiple people complain that he didn't look handsome lol. But now I can't see him being portrayed by someone else. He's just him. And he looks very hot when he saves Luffy. 👌🏻
You're in for a ride with him. He's an open book yet there's many things you don't know about him. "You didn't ask" basically. He's really chill and likes to see you laugh and smile, seeing you sad really breaks his heart.
-> Buggy the Clown
Tumblr media
BARK BARK BARK. As said in an older post, I didn't recognize the actor and was shocked to see that I already knew him. I saw his face without makeup and found him familiar. It renewed a brainrot with an old character (deke), lol.
There's always something happening. There's rarely ever a fully boring day. And he loves that you're by his side no matter what. He might want to abandon you to save his ass but always end up taking you with him because he doesn't have the heart to actually abandon you. He likes your attention, but you better be careful with it because he might go overboard very easily. And sometimes he's too lost in it to care about what you really want and don't want.
-> Cabaji
Tumblr media
GAY ‼️
-> Dracule Mihawk
Tumblr media
No brainrot. I have some trouble with his eyes. I can't tell if I would've preferred them without contacts. But other than that he slayed his role, very cunty.
Maybe the calmest relationship of your life. He doesn't talk much but he still values communication because it's important. He trusts you and likes to see you happy, mentally cheering for you.
-> Monkey D. Luffy
Tumblr media
No brainrot. The only thing is that he doesn't stretch himself as much as he should. But I can't remember if he used his stretchiness as much as he does now (grabbing someone from afar, launching himself…) otherwise Iñaki is a good luffy. Love him. Knew him from The Imperfects so I was happy to see him again.
Too trusting. And too naive. Believe any words that come from your mouth, but you better not play too much with it because he's going to repeat it. Like Shanks, he likes to make you laugh and see you happy. Seeing his crew in a good mood is important to him.
-> Roronoa Zoro
Tumblr media
No brainrot, surprisingly ? I love his anime/manga vers. so idk why his live action isn't clicking. I remember being 15 and fighting for him with a friend lol
Very loyal, not that the others aren't. But you better not betray him. He won't take it kindly. Very trusting as well. If you're ever accused of something you didn't do, he won't need to hear you to know if it's true or fake. And even if it was true, he's going to be like, "You had your reasons *shrugs*."
-> Usopp
Tumblr media
Don't have anything to say, good actor choice. Love him as usopp. Can't wait to see more of him in season 2, honestly. Which we would see him as sogeking/sniperking.
He definitely hides behind you but doesn't back down to protect you. Likes to make you laugh. But the more you laugh, the more he might lie to make you laugh even more. Down to try whatever drink you take. If he knows he can't take someone down, he'll run to you for protection. If you can't take them down either, well... You're both running.
-> Vinsmoke Sanji
Tumblr media
I don't know why they got rid of the eyebrows. He's really sweet. I love him more than the anime/manga because he's less of a pervert and he's smoother about it. Taz did an amazing job. He's really dedicated from what I've heard, doing his own stunts, learning how to cook…
He loves flirting with you even if he's already dating you. He's really biased when it comes to you. He trusts you with his entire being, heart, and soul. Very gentle lover that makes you breakfast in bed. Or breakfast in the hammock.

can i request a romantic hairo x male reader where the reader is a psychic like Saiki?
Ooooh! This whole time I just realized I’ve been writing for reader without psychic powers so this’ll be fun! :}
Tumblr media
Ehhh Hairo needs more gifs..;P
💪🔥👍
Tbh these hcs can go lots of different ways depending on how you are and what you want! For examples….:3
if you want to hide your psychic abilities from him, well, it depends on whether fate wants you to or not! Just like how if saiki is meant to do something, despite all the power he has to stop it, it ends up happening anyway! :P but if it wants you to then either 1) stuff miraculously happens to prevent him from finding out or 2) he sees and doesn’t believe his eyes 😋
if your open and tell him about them he’s a little shocked at first! Of course he is! He’s never seen them before canonly. And ngl? He not gonna believe you 😭 Not that he don’t trust you but your gonna need some stone hard evidence that it’s you and not some magic trick. It’ll be easier to convince him depending on what type of powers you have. Physical powers wont be such a struggle as idk?? reading minds. After he does get over the initial shock though..
You are now…..super maaaan! 🦸 cuz like what other logical explanation is there?
Will ask you a million and one questions as far as how did you get them? When? How does it feel? How does it work? If he works hard enough will he get them too? Do you come from another galaxy? Is that your only power? (😅💓)
Him completely getting used to them never really happens. I mean it’s not normal really! To him there’s no other person like you! Cuz I mean he hasn’t found out 🤷‍♀️ He always praises you over how cool you are and says ‘even if he can’t gain powers like you he’ll work hard to be just as strong/cool! 💪‘
His parents reaction (if you decide to tell them too/if they find out) is oddly relaxed? Don’t get me wrong their jaws do drop and they are in shock, but after that they ask you a few questions and is pretty much like ‘cool👍‘
the Hairo family isn’t the type to see things like this and immediately snap a pic for the media, they’re kinda like ‘WOW this is rare!! Cool :)’ LOL 😂 I feel like they’re just mature like that, all three of them :}
if your friends know then you probably told him it was okay to tell them and he broke news first. Either that or a completely 180° and they didn’t find out til months later when you used them casually in public without realizing. Either way they pretty much scold Hairo for not telling them sooner when he says ‘he knows’ you have psychic powers. LIKE HELLO?! THATS NOT NORMAL?! SAY SOMETHING??
if you wanna keep it a secret he’s gotcha! 👌 as I said he doesn’t overreact to these types of things, I feel, so your secrets’ safe with him and he stands on business about it! Not a soul will know until your ready and if not then they never will.
Although, if your fine with the public knowing, he doesn’t want you to use them to cheat in sports/exercising. He thinks it’s very unmanly and unfair :^ which I’d be mad too if some dude with powers cheated like that, so can’t blame him. You likely agree with this so there shouldn’t be a problem really ☀︎
[comes back and acts like I didn’t disappear for idk how long] 💃💃🩰
[twirls away 🩰]

Ngl I'm a little worried about Charlie and Vaggatha's relationship and how the show will handle it.
Not because of leaks or anything fuck that. People are so quick to jump to conclusions when it comes to that shit.
My worries come from how Vivzie rarely talks about them and when she does she says she doesn't want their relationship to be the main focus
Which is completely fine. The Hazbin Characters, especially Charlie are gonna be really busy and dealing with a fuck ton I bet so it makes sense why Vivz would want to direct the focus elsewhere and show more to their characters than just that.
But there's that other part of me that's telling me maybe she doesn't want us to get too attached to them.
Now immediately I don't think they're breaking up. Vivzie has said before that Charlie and Vaggie have known eachother for the longest time and they've been through so much together and the love they have for eachother is very strong so a break up would be stupid.
But Vivz did say that one main cast character dies. And I've been thinking about that for a while. Thinking about what character death would be most beneficial and impact the story and it's characters in a big way.
And my overthinking ass is scared and thinking it's gonna be Vaggie. Because story wise as much as it hurts it makes sense for Charlie's character to lose her and see how her dream of wanting to redeem demons comes with a cost like permenantly losing the ones you love most, whether that be redeeming them and them entering heaven and never seeing them again or losing them through the challenges that come along the way and Charlie being faced to deal with the challenge of not having the confidence and motivation she had before to want to continue the hotel.
More than worried I guess I'm just scared or anticipating is more like it. I'm not salty or mad about this outcome, hell I don't even know if it'll happen nor am I jumping to that conclusion. It's all really just theoretical right now. Regardless the story's gotta story at the end of the day and the characters will face hardships. That much is known.

✰ Games ✰
Summary: Baseball player Chris and softball player Reader practice together before readers game.
Warnings: None! Fluff, kissing
A/n: okokok, I need to apologize first 😭 I haven’t written in awhile so like I said I’m sorry if it’s not the best written thing ever. ngl kinda hate this
nowwww, enjoy!
————————————————————————
“you guys are coming to my game tomorrow right?” I asked my best friends, Nick, Matt and Chris. Except, with Chris, everything with him made it more complicated to call him just my friend. He would always treat me like I was something more to him. He would do these little things that made me feel like I was on top of the world. For example, he always made an effort to hang out with me, he would remember the little things about me, and most importantly he would help me with anything and everything, no questions asked. Except, maybe he just does all this because he considers me his bestfriend. It wouldn’t surprise, despite that I couldn’t help but think about how he doesn’t do all of this for Madi.
“uh, duhh! when have we ever missed a game of yours?” Nick replied.
“yea of course, we’ll definitely be there.” Matt added.
“let me help you practice, gotta be on your A game, right?” Chris said, not looking up from his phone as he spoke.
I sighed. “yea yea, because you’re so much better than me at baseball huh?” I smiled, looking down at him.
“see, now you’re getting it! sooo, if you ever wanna be as good as me I suggest you accept my help.”
The thing about Chris is that he’s always confident in everything he does, and it’s great. I wish I could be like him in the slightest. He was always dedicated in the sports and hobbies he decided to spend his time doing, he always did his best to be the best.
“hmmm okay, you wanna help me practice let’s practice. when do you wanna go?” I asked him. This wouldn’t be our first time practicing together, he always made it super fun.
“how about… now? better late than never anyway.”
“come on then, grab your glove and bat I have everything else.”
-
I drove into the parking lot of the field me and him always practiced in, which is also the field he spends his time playing baseball in. To be completely honest, I got into softball because of Chris. I was 7 and the triplets were 8. Chris had this friend who played baseball and said he was super good and Chris being Chris, he wanted to compete with him about it. He spent hours, days, weeks making himself the best he could be. He worked his ass off practicing and it all payed off. He became the star player on the team. He pitched almost every game he played and won almost every time. But, on the very rare occasion that he lost a game, he would push himself to his limits to make sure it would never happen again. I looked up to him, his passion about it and I wanted to be like that. So, I started playing softball and became a pitcher just like him. It added to the many things me and Chris have had in common since the beginning and it made me feel closer to him on many levels.
“sooo, you wanna pitch first, bat first, or I can help with a little infielding. ohhh, or even maybe do some outfielding.” Chris asked as he grabbed our bags out of the car.
“uhhh, you can bat first? I always do better pitching first anyway.”
I walked over to him, trying to grab my bag so I could take it to the dugout myself. It was kinda heavy after all, it had everything in it even a collapsible batting T. Chris pulled the bag away from where I could grab it.
“nuh uh, I asked you to come practice. you shouldn’t have to carry your own bag.” He stated, before continuing towards the dug out.
“but Chris-“
“nope. no buts. you know nothings ever a bother when it comes to you.” He smiled at me before walking completely to the dug out.
I smiled to myself before following him. He hung both of our bags on the chainlink fence, putting on batting gloves and grabbing his helmet.
I pulled the pitching net from off to the side and started to pull it in front of the mound, getting hit in the face by a line drive isn’t on my bucket list today.
“hey hey, what are you doing?” Chris asked with narrowed eyes from the dugout, still getting himself situated and ready to bat.
“I mean, getting hit in the face by a line drive wouldn’t be ideal. I can’t play tomorrow with a broken nose.” I shrugged.
“yea, but you also can’t play with a pitching net. is the net gonna be there when you play tomorrow?” Chris asked me, despite knowing the answer. No.
“no.”
“exactly. sooo, you gonna use it or not?” He said, walking out of the dugout.
“fine, but if you break my nose or any bone on my body best believe I’m making you pay my medical bills, Christopher.” I replied before pulling the net back to its original place, grabbing a bucket of softballs instead.
“I would never.”
I spent almost an hour pitching to him, every pitch he would suggest things to make them better. Despite me only doing softball pitches, his feedback helped. And, like he said, I didn’t get hit in the face with a line drive.
“I don’t know about you, but I need a break.” Chris loudly exclaimed, before dramatically throwing his bat down and walked into the dugout. I dropped the ball and my glove on the mound before going into the dugout along with him.
“so, you’ve gotten really good since our last practice.” He said, pulling me closer to him as I leaned my head on his shoulder.
“yeah?”
“yeah.”
“You know, I only started playing softball because of you?” I sighed.
He raised his eyebrows and looked down at me. “really? because of me?”
“really, I’ve always admired your passion and dedication about all of the sports you play. In one way, I wanted to be like you. but in the other, I wanted to impress you.”
I looked away from him, this is something I’d never expect myself to be admitting to him but he’s helped me so much to get to this point in my life, and I know it’s the right the to do. To be honest about it.
He grabbed my jaw softly and turned it towards him, so I was looking at him.
“you know, all I’ve ever wanted to do was impress you. I wanted you to see me in a different way than you did my brothers…. I wanted you to see more than that.” He admitted, smiling softly at me.
“I’ve only ever seen you in a different way than them.” I whispered as we leaned closer into each other.
“In a good way I hope.” He whispered softly, getting closer to my face.
“the best way possible” Those were the last words said before he pushed his lips onto mine, something both of us have wanted for a long time. That feeling was something that could be felt in the kiss, hunger, desperation maybe.
Eventually, we pulled away and smiled at each other.
“now, come on! let’s keep practicing, then maybe you’ll be as good as me.”
“whatever.” I said as I pulled him back out onto the field.

Hello, well, I really have to ask you something because doubt has been eating away at me since I started imagining the situation, How do you think your evil versions of the turtles will interact with Casey Junior? (Either in the past or in the future)
Thank You for reading me (and for answer me if You do)
Ooooohhh that’s a very nice question (and no thank you for asking!! I love when people ask me about my fave au i ever made dhhdhxhx <3333)
Ngl I never thought how they’d interact with him at all, cause Villainous brothers’ story will differ a lot from canon, the whole “Krang invasion” isn’t exactly gonna happen the same way it did in the show, so the whole “Junior goes back in time to save the future” isn’t gonna happen
I mean, speaking realistically, the turtles are far from the heros of the story, they’re gonna be the protagonists yes, but a protagonist isn’t necessarily a hero/good person
But back to the subject, while I don’t have plans to include Junior in the story of VB, it’s still fun to explore the what ifs
So to be clear, it’ll end up really REALLY bad for Junior if he were to meet Mikey or Donnie first, Mikey is extremely aggressive and a tiny bit sadistic, he might attack Junior just for the fun of it, but at the same time, he may not actually attack him at all
Mikey might actually start pretty well with Junior, but suddenly outta nowhere start attacking him
That’s exactly what makes Mikey the most dangerous, he’s unpredictable and with the frozen smile on his face, it’s hard to actually read his emotions, and unless he invites Junior to a tea party, which is Mikey’s way of declaring someone has made it into his circle of family/friends, he’s not to be trusted at all, cause trusting him before his invite is an immediate death wish
However, if Junior somehow managed to amuse Mikey enough to form a connection (which is rare but possible) Mikey can actually become Junior’s greatest leverage against Mikey’s brothers in case they wanted to harm him, as once Mikey considers someone a friend, they’re instantly under his protection (and believe me none of his bros are gonna try their luck to hurt Junior once Mikey invites him to a tea party xgxhxhhzh)
As for DonDon, he has that unrivaled hate for humans, and unlike Mikey, Donnie would make it pretty clear from the beginning that Junior is gonna either end up a lab experiment, or a mutant, DonDon would definitely start attacking without question, and the thing is with Donnie, he’s an unpredictable fighter, Mikey is more unpredictable when it comes to his emotions/behavior, but he follows a routine when using his powers, even if occasionally fights outta the box, Donnie is the opposite, he follows a routine when it comes to his emotions/behavior, but when it comes to his fights you can never be sure what he’d do, his fighting style is both calculated yet messy so it’s safe to assume Junior is absolutely going to lose if he doesn’t think very quickly of an escape
There’s no chance Junior would be able to make any kinda connection with DonDon, neither is DonDon relenting and helping introduce him to his bros, so it’s definitely better if Junior doesn’t encounter him until he becomes part of the family
Raph is a bit of a complicated case, Raph would be extremely suspicious of Junior and he’d definitely act coldly towards him, immediately warning Junior not to overstep and try his luck, and to stay far away from his family, but he wouldn’t go outta his way to hurt Junior for no reason
Raph doesn’t attack someone unless provoked in most cases, so while Junior would definitely be safe from harm in Raph’s case, he would not get far in terms of forming any kinda connection with him or even through him to connect with Raph’s younger brothers
So i’d say Raph’s a hopeless case, that is unless Junior does something to help/save one of Raph’s bros, that might convince Raph to give him a chance, but he’d still be under Raph’s watchful eyes
In Leo’s case, I’d say he’s the easiest to form a connection with, Junior’s chances of Leo listening to him and actually giving him a chance is very high, the thing is with Leo tho is how calculated he is, Leo is a very good actor, so while yes he’d form a connection withJunior in no time, it’s most likely cause he gets something out of it, Leo is terrifyingly manipulative, so i’d say Junior’s in for a bad time if he trusts Leo way too blindly, that of course doesn’t mean Leo is never genuine, but it’s always hard to differentiate between a manipulative act, or a genuine action
Leo would most likely hold no actual attachment to Junior at first so he’ll most likely manipulate him to get what he wants, and Leo’s really good at lying, so you can imagine Junior’s shock when Leo immediately abandons him the moment Leo gets what he wants, to put it simply, Leo’s untrustworthy
If Junior actually gets to know the family through Leo, that’d be bad, as DonDon would be adamant to have Junior as a lab experiment or Mikey feeling a bit too trigger happy that day and Leo would not stop either of them, he’d let them have their way with Junior, not even outta malicious intent he just doesn’t care about this boy he just got to know
Funny enough, Junior would only be truly safe to get to know the family if it was through Mikey, or Raph, cause even if it’s dangerous with Mikey, or difficult with Raph, both of them are extremely protective of who they consider family and would not allow any harm to come to Junior once he makes it in the family circle, not any harm by them or by the outside world
So you can absolutely tell Junior’s journey to get to know the family is not going to be an easy one, but if he manages to become family before getting killed, then he got nothing to worry about :D

I just saw on Google that Ochako confirmed that she is in love with Deku in the manga, is this true?
I'm really behind on the episodes, believe it or not I didn't even have the courage to leave the first episode. Yes, I ship BkDk, I'm following it through the community, you make me have hope, even though half the famdom hates this beautiful ship, I know there's a possibility that it's fake, I don't know, but I was sad about it.
I'm sending this ask to all BkDk analysis professionals, as you can see I'm a bit desperate, don't be surprised if you see this ask on other profiles!
(I researched more, it seems like everyone is against BkDk, even though the manga gives so many signs), can you explain it to me? what are the possibilities that BkDk will be canonized?
wooo i finally got time and caffeine to answer (sorry anon for the late reply!) -- i just realized you sent this ask to me bc you consider me a "BkDk analysis professional" and i am very flattered except i feel like i'm not one you say i am lol but thanks for the thought tho anon, so for you, i'll try my very best! ;;;;;
disclaimer: sorry for any spoilers if you decide to read on!
Anyway, when I saw that first question, I was so confused in the beginning because I didn't remember Ochako confessing to Deku that she's in love with him. However, I did go back to search it up and she did confess to Toga that she did fall in love with Deku (chapter 394) esp when Toga and Ochako had a heart-to-heart convo.
Tumblr media
(i had to go for the raw ver. so that i can see what she says in japanese but it is basically the same as what it says on the translated ver. "...then, I fell in love with Midoriya Izuku and now, that's why I'm here to stop you!")
This chapter tho literally has togachako moments all over it! She was trying to reach out to Toga by revealing what her motives were and how they had changed from being a hero, not just bc her fam has poor income and she needed the financial stability, but for others (mostly influenced by deku) as well and that's why she's willing to even "reach" out a hand to Toga and listen to her feelings. (anon you made me read that chapter again and i'm in literal tears because i remembered she told toga she has the "cutest smile in the world" in the end aaa my heart asdfghjkl) Now, I'm not going to ignore that she revealed to Toga that she has feelings for Deku (even in the manga/anime, she's so obvious with her feelings by blushing, ashido teasing her, etc.) so we technically already knew from the start. It's just that she admitted it now, not really surprising tbh.
BUT, we have yet to know what Deku's feelings are in the matter or if he even reciprocates them. As far as I know (or I have seen so far), Deku literally gets blushy or embarassed around girls whenever he gets near them (like the time with hatsume accidentally landed on top of him) because he is still just a teenage boy with hormones who probably rarely have close girls as friends until he attended UA.
Please keep watching anon! Ngl, I actually had the same thought as you back then, but then I kept watching and watching until I finally caught up with the anime and manga. Hori does not disappoint when it comes to the BkDk dynamics, especially in the most recent chapters in the manga which I won't spoil for you, but it is definitely worth catching up to! I highly suggest you keep watching because season 6 by far has one of the best top moments I've ever seen that happened between bkdk. Also, a lot and I really mean a lot (bc I have posted a couple of bkdk posts back then when s6 was still airing so i read reblogged tags and chats lol) have even acknowledged that bkdk could actually turn into something special esp from the ones that were against it from the beginning. This means not everyone is against their relationship as you say they are. If anything, the people against it have actually lessened and the ones that are still hell-bent on being an anti are probably the ones that never read the manga, watched past season 1, knows that this is the top-ranked ship in mha and feel threatened it'll get in the way of their respective ship for bk/dk or just plain homophobes. I've never seen or recalled someone putting together a whole essay of why bkdk can't be together, other than, "he bullied him" or "guys can't get together in shonen anime!" or some other dumb reasons.
As for the other question, "what are the possibilities that BkDk will be canonized?" All I can say is anon, we just need to have hope for Hori to provide us that in the end honestly ;; Don't get me wrong, I love BkDk as much as the next person since I shipped them right from the start of episode 1 but I would still love it if Hori gives us a little panel at the end where they're working together in the same agency or damn, staying together as roommates under the same roof. He didn't even have to make it obvious, just make it indirect while us bkdk audience can fantasize about what's really happening behind closed doors while the others can think of it as them being platonic roomies asdfghjkl In any case, through my 'bkdk rose-colored glasses' tho, my answer would be a huge chance of them being canonized because of how much their relationship and character has grown so so much from the impact towards each other since s1, especially from Katsuki's end (i would love to show you the moments, but idk if i should spoil ;;;), but with the glasses off, I'm just really hoping it goes to that direction where Hori is one of the few authors that does it because I'm sure there are other shounen mangas out there that have their protags get together with the same gender, although subtle, but are not as popular as Hori's work.
Now, I would like to end this with a comment, please don't give up on shipping BkDk. You may feel like you're a minority who ships them, but we're actually a big growing community (esp in ao3 and djs) with just a lot of haters (mostly from the western side) because Hori gives us more of the spotlight and a whole lot of character development since the start of chapter one. I would say it doesn't really hit you for being proud to be a bkdk shipper until season 6. If you see it, you'll know what I mean because it still makes me tear up to this day ;;;
so here's to hori and to many bkdk moments we'll get in the future (hopefully in the upcoming movie!) and thank you anon, fellow bkdks, or prob other random but curious passerbys for coming to my boring Ted-talk haha
also here's dk looking at kacchan and kacchan looking away (๑ᵕ◡ᵕ)
