Big brain Nero head cannon time!

I loved the "Can I spend my life with you?" fic and it got me thinking... Nero would be so soft around little kids! 🤧 Chaotic but soft! Like playful and fully engaged with whatever they are doing and 1000% down to play with dolls or putting on makeup or a full on nerf war or a foam sword fight or even just chasing the kid around, cackling like a gremlin while the kid screams and giggles! 😭

It would be so precious to watch and my heart can't handle how cute it is!!!

Playtime (Nero x Reader & Their Child)♥

(Dad Nero has my heart💖💖😭 Both baby and Reader are gender neutral for maximum self insertion haha~ I based this on my younger family members and how I mess around with them! (◠‿◠✿) Thank you for the request!! xo)

Summary; Nero playing with your toddler! Word Count; 575 Warnings; None! :)

MASTERLIST🌸

From the second your child was born, Nero’s ‘dad mode’ was unlocked and he hasn't looked back since. Dad jokes, tea parties and telling stories with dramatic voices to make an actor jealous– Nero gladly let go of any pride he had before in order to see his baby smile. That gummy smile and the tiny, cooing giggles when he would make faces and animatedly speak to the tiny baby in his arms… It just made everything worth it. 

“I’m gonna get youuu∼!” 

“No you won’t–!”

You watch on as the two most important people in your life cause absolute chaos in your living  room, couch cushions and toys strewn over the floor and the sound of delighted squealing and giggling warming your heart. Nero is pretending to chase after your toddler, dramatically parkouring over furniture, pretending to be some kind of monster… or maybe a dinosaur? You can’t really be sure, the game changes every few minutes and you’ve given up trying to keep up with the switch ups. He always makes sure to be just unable to reach your child, who squeals and yells for the monster to go away as they run a few feet away– but you know Nero is as eagle eyed as ever, subtly herding them away from potential dangers without pausing the game.

Nero takes playtime very seriously. Sometimes you have to ask yourself whether you have one baby or two– because father and child are on the exact same wavelength when it comes to playing. This is a game of life or death!

“I’m gonna steal all your hugs– give them to meeee∼!” Nero rushes towards your child, hands outstretched in a tickling motion. They scream and run behind the couch, peeking over it with sparkling eyes.

“Nuh-uh! None for youuuu–!” They declare, giggling and waiting for their daddy’s next move. “Monsters don’t get hugs!”

Nero gasps in offence, “What do you mean monsters don’t get hugs?”

“No hugs for monsters!” The child doubles down, grinning as Nero puts a hand to his chest and puts on an indignant expression.

“But what if I’m a nice monster?” Nero challenges, creeping closer to the couch.

“Nope, nuh-uh– no hugs for you!” They see Nero’s approach and starts mirroring his actions so that the two of them are circling the couch. 

“Is that so?” Nero grins mischievously.

They giggle, “Mm-hmm! My hugs, you can’t have them!” 

You already know what's coming before it even happens, having seen this scenario play out many times before. Nero nods sadly, looking thoughtful. “Hmm, okay… I guess I’ll just have to go without then….” 

And then he lunges– vaulting over the couch and capturing the toddler in his arms, lifting them into the air like a trophy. They squeal and kick their arms and legs out in an attempt to ‘free themself’, their cheeks flushed and white hair a mess. 

“Gotcha–!” He tosses them into the air before hugging them tightly to his chest. His arms are strong and protective around your child, and they lean into his embrace despite still screaming out in defeat at having been caught by the monster. “All your hugs are mine!”

That's when you decide to make your presence known, wrapping your arms around the two of them and nuzzling your cheek against the soft white hair of your baby’s head. A sneak attack to win you the game!

“-- And now both of your hugs are mine!”

Is there even such a thing as 'acting your age'? When I was 10, I was told I was acting too mature, when I was 15 I was immature. Now that I'm 19 people like to bounce back and forth whether I'm an adult or not depending on how my mental health is doing at the time. It's almost like people just use the term 'act your age' to justify their own stuck up and rude behaviour, because being boring and hating anything cute is just soooo mature lol

Also probably going back to my Markiplier binge watching in order to get through this and I have alot of videos to catch up on

MASTERLIST🌸

Sometimes Nero could pretend everything was normal. Everything was fine, you were sitting on the couch, safe and sound, watching your favourite show. 

But you never looked comfortable. No matter how hard he tried, or where in the room you rested. Your posture remained as stiff as ever, your expression blank and pained. Like you were struggling to hold onto your soul. You were still wearing the same clothes as that day, decked out in weapon harnesses and protective gear (it didn't protect you, he didn't protect you). Minus the blood and guts thankfully. 

Most days he was able to ignore the reality of your situation, even when you made it difficult. 

"Nero, please," You said, in a lifeless tone. "You need to let me go." 

No. He wouldn't– he couldn't. Why couldn't you just let him pretend? Sitting on the couch right beside you, so close yet so far, he realised for the first time (once again) that you hadn't actually looked at him for weeks. 

"Are you cold again, Angel?" He moved to grab another blanket for you, blind to the growing pile already surrounding you, but stayed put when you shook your head and extended a hand to block his path. 

"Nero," you said. "You need to accept what happened." 

Accept what? You said the strangest things these days… 

"It hurts," You continued. "This is no way to exist. You're living in a fantasy… All you do is eat and sleep, and ignore everything around you. Dante and Vergil try their best to help you but you don't even answer the door anymore."

"Why are you doing this?" Nero's chest hurt so bad, he didn't want to listen anymore. 

"It's so cold here, Nero," A single tear fell down your cheek, your expression as empty as ever. "You need to let me go. It's okay." 

Nero, in an increasingly rare moment of lucidity, shook his head, unable to fight off his own tears. "I can't," He choked out through the lump in his throat. "I need you– please, angel, don't leave me!" 

"This guilt you're holding on to, it's killing you!" you said. "How many times do I have to tell you before you accept it? It wasn't your fault! I made a choice to take myself out so I wouldn’t kill you… But now– You're hurting me." 

All the pain, guilt and grief was tearing him apart on the inside. The tears wouldn't stop, the last of his facade crumbling as he cried. You were suffering, being forced to remain in the realm of the living, desperately trying to hold onto your humanity. It was Nero's fault. All his fault. 

He could still feel your blood under his fingernails and drying on his skin. He could never rid himself of the feeling. You were gone, Dante buried you and Nero had sobbed over your grave for hours. 

But it hurt too much to accept that you died months ago– so he didn't. 

Mind going blissfully numb, Nero smiled lovingly at you. "Don't worry, Angel, I'll take care of you. I love you so much."

instead of arguing about the no-fly list and the memes it spawned, please consider donating to CAIR (Center for American Islamic Relations) or the CCR (Center for Constitutional Rights)

CAIR, specifically, is group of muslim lawyers who routinely represent muslim americans fighting for their legal rights - all for free

both groups have already won multiple cases for muslim americans who have been wrongfully profiled and surveilled by the government, and they’ve announced plans to take even broader legal initiative to protect our rights. it’s because of their work thus far that the supreme court recently ruled that muslims who have been wrongfully placed on no-fly lists are now allowed to sue the government for damages

we still have a long way to go, but organizations like these are doing so much work to make sure we get there

As someone that has spent their teen years constantly being berated for being dirty and unhygienic for having really bad acne, I can confirm that that's not the case lol I overwashed my skin until it bled and felt like leather, yet the acne never went away. Treat people kindly and educate yourself!

literally no dermatologist on earth says acne is caused by bad hygeine/lack of a skincare routine btw. its genetic. every single piece of research ever done on acne says its genetic. feel like i need to restate this every time i see a post about skincare

One of them will have to get finished eventually, right???

I hate, hate, HATE the term “affordable housing.” I hate that we’ve normalized it. I hate that we just accept that the majority of housing, a basic human right, is unaffordable to much of the population. Housing should be affordable as a baseline. If rich people want to add arcades and gold-plated hot tubs on top so be it, but everyone, everyone, regardless of income level, should have access to a clean, comfortable home with enough light and space to make life worth living.

So like, allegedly celebs are using ozempic to lose weight? But it basically works by killing your appetite (and making you nauseous probably helps too)

So essentially it’s medically starving yourself (just like gastric bypass, etc does)

So what, are you supposed to take this medicine every week for the rest of your life? What if you go off it? Won’t you just gain it back?

Science has proven it’s almost impossible to lose weight and keep it off, because weight loss goes against everything our bodies have been hard wired to do. Diets don’t work because our brains will make us “relapse” because duh, we need to eat.

So isn’t all this just proving weight loss is basically only possible with starvation, which is bad for you?

Idk man. I read a lot about these things and I just think maybe being fat is better than torturing ourselves, especially if all it does is improve a few numbers in our blood tests.

Also, steroid use is a huge issue amongst male actors these days (especially from Marvel). No extreme can ever be healthy, do not compare yourself to a celebrity! Take care of your body and listen to it! It knows what it needs 💖
