JAY HALSTEAD

Bomb Squad Alternative

Requested: yes

Prompts: none

Warning(s): none

Author's note: Here is another crossover between firefighter Y/N and Jay Halstead. Hope you enjoyed since I’m really proud lol. Personally I think this would be a great episode.

Requests for Jay are open again so send in your ideas! I’m thinking about putting out Christmas prompts since I’m feeling festive. Also, I’m quarantied :( went to test yesterday and I’m waiting for the results to kick in. I feel fine so I shouln’t worry but I still do yk? Anyhow, school is a b and I’m doing online atm (maybe high schools will switch to online completely until Christmas but who knows at this point).

It’s also exam weeks so that’s why I’ve been lacking time to get back to writing.

Now perpare for me to get on my knees for you at the end of this one shot. <3

“Everyone get out of the station!” You exclaimed, barging through the train station with the rest of 51. Your loud voices and heavy gear alerted everyone enough to get them to move back.

“What do you think you’re doing?” A police officer questioned, throwing an accusing eyebrow your way.

Your lieutenant left you to the police officer’s mercy with a nod of his head. You sighed, turning to the man but still keeping a steady pace with the rest of your team. “There is a bomb threat, we need to evacuate the train station.”

“A bomb threat? I didn’t get a call,” He fought, looking around as if the bomb might be anywhere. Which was true.

“The intelligence is on their way, but I suggest you give us some room to do our job,” Matt joined his voice with you to explain. Although he quickly returned to shouting.

Soon enough, you saw two dark clothed figures march down the stairs towards you. Your boyfriend came striding down towards all of you, his blue eyes assassinating the surrounding situation.

Until they fell on you.

He looks good, you allowed yourself to think. Admiring his lean figure - the leather jacket covering his muscular arms and proud CPD badge at his hip - you watched as he stalked towards you. The old lady that was clutching to your side shakily suddenly became invisible to your eyes.

You weren’t surprised to see his jaw tick at the sight of you, which made you shake your head in annoyance. Helping the lady catch the arms of a fellow firefighter became your priority. You watched as she walked outside on unsteady legs.

“Y/LN, Casey.” Your chief grabbed your attention, “What’s the situation?”

“Still no sight of the bomb chief,” Matt said. “We’re trying to get out as many people as possible.”

“It’s rush hour Chief,” You breathed, glancing at Jay for a second before giving Wallace your full attention. “The next train will be here in 10 minutes. If this bomb has a timer then that’s exactly when it will go off. We need the bomb squad here now.”

“Understood. Voight?”

The sergeant looked at Jay who shook his head. “Stuck in traffic.”

You caught Matt muttering a violent curse under his breath, which only tempted you to do the same.

“Chief we need help!”

Severide’s shout brought you and Matt to your senses immediately. There was no time to think as you both ran towards him with your heavy gear on both your shoulders.

“Y/N stop!”

It was Jay who made you halt in your tracks to turn around. “What?”

He reached for your elbow, and with ease pulled you away. “Look I...”

You knew what was going on in his head. His protective nature over you often interferes with many things, including your job. But not today.

“I know you’re worried Jay, okay?” You reasoned, gloved hands grabbing his forearms in reassurance. “But this is my job. Trust me - I hate that we’re put in this situation but there’s nothing we can do except have each other's back.”

Jay let out a loose breath of fear before masking it under a facade of blankness. He waved his hand at the police officers, giving them a sign to follow him. “Be careful.”

You bobbed your head before planting a kiss to his cheek and running back to the scene.

The sight in front of you broke your heart.

A tiny boy with tears coloring his face sat at the bench with his foot dangling over the edge, connected to what looked like a time bomb. He was all alone - barely even 7 years old, with a bright yellow beanie covering his blonde curls. Rosy tear stained cheeks, and blue eyes filled with fear made you drop on your knees immediately.

Carefully, you approached him. The fear that brew inside was pushed aside and you plastered on a smile. “Hi buddy. My name’s Y/N. We’re here to help you”

You seized the ticking bomb and managed to decipher the numbers. Shaking your head, you ignored the buzzing of your anxious heart and grabbed your radio, dialing. “We have three minutes chief. No time to wait for the bomb squad. I have to do it.”

***

Jay looked at the police officers who surrounded him in an uneven half circle, and shook his head. He could see the men trembling, hands shaking and beads of sweat appearing at their foreheads.

“Alright listen up,” He boomed. “We need to evacuate immediately. Threaten with arrest, I don’t care. Just get the civilians out of here.”

They nodded in sync, each man letting out a different toned response before leaving him be to watch what was revealing a few yards away. Jay wouldn’t admit it, but he was shaking inside. His fingertips itched to grab your heavily clothed body and swing you over his shoulder in an attempt to keep you safe... No matter how chauvinistic that sounded.

But Jay Halstead had decided to date a strong woman. A dedicated feminist at that - a woman that refused to be manhandled unless it was to take her to bed when she desired.

Now he watched her - you - shout and shove around the train station, desperate to do what his job was too. Was he a bad man for not really caring if that man that just brushed his expensive suit against his shoulder came out of there safe? He only had eyes on you, so that’s why he spent moments watching you work around like a hawk.

And then you kneeled, and your colleagues stepped out of the way. Without his permission, his dark brows bunched together and his eyes narrowed at your stature. What are you doing?

His answer fell from the sky quickly - although not literally. Voight and Boden strode to his side to discuss the situation.

“There is no time to wait for the bomb squad,” Boden said roughly, his jaw clenching. “If that bomb isn’t deactivated within the next 3 minutes not only is that boy going to die...everyone on this block will.”

Voight knew what he meant by that. Thousands of casualties. Not only will Chicago lose millions of dollars worth of repair if the block blows up - as first responders what came to their minds were the civilians. How many of them will die or be injured because of a simple mistake of following protocol and waiting? They had a firefighter there, on the scene, ready to disable the bomb and save them.

Only that firefighter was you. And that made their decision ten times harder to make.

But Boden was sure in you, and so was Voight. “Okay. Do what you gotta do.”

Wallace nodded, griping his radio. “Y/N. Go for it.”

Y/N? Jay couldn’t believe his ears. It completely slipped his mind that you had been trained for this. At that moment, his body and mind said no. He forgot all about equality you have been trying to tattoo into his mind. You were you at that moment. A simple girl he fell in love with and wanted to protect.

“What the hell Sarge?!”

***

“Okay,” You sighed enthusiastically, hoping to divert the boy’s attention to your relaxed posture. “I need you to be really still for me. Can you do that?”

The boy could barely nod as Sylvie held his head still in the cervical collar.

“What’s your name?” Sylvie asked him, ignoring the fact that two minutes were left on the clock. You went straight to work the moment his attention was diverted and his leg was no longer shaking.

Swiftly, you grasped the leg of his pants and pulled it up, revealing the leather that was sunk in his flesh. You winced, “His leg circulation is bad.”

“Just focus on the bomb,” She reassured you quietly.

You grabbed the equipment and started to work on disabling it. Each step was more difficult than the other. You felt yourself tremble as the end seemed to never come any closer to you no matter how much you reached for it. “Go.”

“What? We’re not leaving you.“ It was Severide who spoke, only a meter or two away from you. Shaking your head at another trap within the system you decided that you needed all the help you could get.

1 minute.

“Jay?” You murmured against the radio - Jay’s reply was instant.

“Y/N you can do this,” his voice was raspier through the line, more prominent and harsh. Nevertheless, his words soothed you.

“I need help,” you told him. “You said this man is crazy right? Well I think there’s a story here. These wires mean something. Blue, white, yellow.”

You weren’t allowed to go for it... not when so many lives were at risk. This man was smart, that much you knew. There has to be a meaning behind the colors.

Jay could help you more than anyone. You knew it. He knew it too.

Blue, white, yellow.

***

“Blue, white, yellow.” He mumbled, not allowing himself to look at his watch. You didn’t have much time, he knew it - Jay just didn’t want a definite reminder of it.

He rocked his brain for explanations. For a clue within this case. Something.

30 seconds.

“Everyone evacuate now!” Boden shouted into his radio. Jay shut it out. His voice didn’t matter. Only you did.

Like an eagle, he searched for you and found you: crouched in front of the yellow capped boy, acting like his anchor he could hold onto. He couldn’t see how shaky you were from afar, he could only hope you were okay.

10 seconds.

“Jay!”

Yellow.

“This kid was his last target. He looks for the details,“ He explained to you. “Yellow.”

***

Like his beanie. You casted a stray glance at the boy, flashing him a tight lipped smile. The puffy beanie that was supposed to protect him from the cold just became the thing that saved his life. And the poor boy didn’t even know it.

3...

This is it.

2...

You didn’t think, only did what Jay told you. You cut through the yellow wire and stop the ticking destruction at the last second.

No sound is heard.

No man moves.

Only rigid breathing of your own manages to make its way inside your ears.

And then the boy starts to wail. His cries turn into what look like never ending sobs. You were glad he’s crying, and not in a bad way. The sound he started to make was a clear indicator of your survival. The bomb didn’t go off. You were safe. You never felt more alive.

Your friends swiped you in their arms immidiately. Every firefighter gave you a congratulation you never thought you would recieve. You just disabeled a bomb.

And it looked like you were the only one shocked.

Still shaking, your eyes searched for the man that helped you.

But Jay was already there, and by the time you turned around to search for him he had his fingertips around you. With a clean tug he pushed you against his chest and hugged you. His breathing was just as harsh as your own, but inside - he never felt prouder.

“You had my back,” you mumbled. Jay pulled a moment later, his blue eyes gazing down at you before he laughed. Laughed. “You were amazing baby.”

“You really think so?”

“I do. Now let’s get you out of here.” He smiled, slipping his hand into yours and pulling you towards the exit. You were cheered after of course, it made your heart swell with pride.

On your way outside you saw the bomb squad, standing in lines next to their equipment. “Nice work guys.” Jay said sarcastically.

The two of you made your way to the shaky boy to make sure he was alright. People were gathered outisde, now that the threat was removed. Each and every one of them had their eyes glazed with tears of relief.

Their homes were safe. Their families were too.

Boden gave you the rest of the day off, and Jay was the one to drive you home.

“Let’s hope our work doesn’t clash like that ever again.”

“I agree,” Jay said quietly and pressed his lips safely against yours.

got any wizard opinions?

just realized this got lost in the shuffle and i forgot to respond yesterday, sorry

anyways, i love wizard! it was my second rider show after fourze, and i think it was the perfect followup for me in that case. while fourze was big and bombastic, wizard was more quiet and laid-back. i know a lot of people found that boring at the time, but i loved the contrast, and since it was using the same episodic structure as fourze, the shift didn't alienate me as much as it would have had i gone from fourze to, i dunno, faiz or something. the only toku i had seen at that point besides fourze was the first two months of toqger, go-busters, and a good chunk of jetman, so it was all still really new and exciting for me

i loved the style of the show, i loved the cast who gelled so well together and was one of the last times kamen rider put some focus on non-rider side characters, and haruto's still one of my favorite riders

the main thing that i don't think wizard gets enough credit for, though, is its ties to classic rider themes. at this point i don't worry too much about newer riders sticking close to ishinomori's ideals, not because i don't care about them, but just because i feel like that ship sailed a while ago. den-o, decade, and fourze weren't super in line with his vision for rider but i still love em to death, you know? but i think wizard harkens back to some of those showa themes in a subtle way that i don't see get talked about much, mainly bc people are busy focusing on wizard never being called a Kamen Rider outside of crossovers

the sabbath is basically an urban fantasy take on the shocker experiments, having haruto escape and being granted newfound power to fight monsters he could've easily become. and he's devastated by this burden, but overcomes it for the good of the people. haruto's final form arc is literally him turning his tears into hope and breaking free of the evil that wants to control him for their own gains, and if that's not some of the most kamen rider shit ever i don't know what is. it's not screaming its influences in your face like build (and that's a compliment to build bc sometimes you gotta yell about this shit), but it's definitely there, and it made me love wizard that much more as i learned more about kamen rider

so tl;dr wizard good

The Owl House and Amphibia Comic Con Panel (Spoilers)

Hey everyone, So I’m about 29 mins into this so far and well haven’t really spotted anything of interest till now. So I don’t know if this can be considered canon but they are presently doing a table read of a The Owl House and Amphibia crossover and something I have seen asked before, is would glyphs or magic for that matter work in the Human realm.

So as I said, I don’t know how canon this crossover table read can be considered but in it Luz successfully uses glyph magic in the realm of Amphibia. Maybe this works due to the fact they have an open portal to Amphibia so the magic can transfer through, a bit like Luz can get a phone signal with an open portal to Earth. However I’m not exactly sure how magic works and if it is anything like a phone signal. So on the assumption this can be considered canon, which I’m honestly not sure about, perhaps glyphs and magic in general could work on Earth. But that is dependent on how canon this can be considered.

And for our Lumity viewing pleasure, Mae Whitman makes a special appearance as Amity, the exact dialogue being;

Dana: (narration) Meanwhile just nearby the Owl House, Amity paces in front of Tiny Nose.

Amity: I’m gonna do it. I’m gonna talk to her. (practicing) Hey Luz, remember that kiss thing. Well I don’t. (laughs nervously) We can just go back to normal, right? Hey, do you wanna help me study for... uh... Oh Titan, I forgot what kind of magic I use.

Tiny Nose: You look nauseous.

Amity: I am but I shouldn’t be. I faced a slither beast before and I barely broke a sweat. Now look at me.

Dana (narration): Amity lifts her arms revealing very sweat stained armpits on her shirt.

Amity: (sighs) No, I’m Amity Blight. I can do this. I’m gonna walk right up to Luz and say...

Tiny Nose: Oh, there she is.

Dana: (narration) Reveal: Luz and Eda walking back from their trip in the distance.

Amity: I gotta go.

Dana: (narration) Amity dashes back into the woods before Luz knew she was even there.

Okay, I am so putting that in its own post but God was that funny. I love how Mae actually physically ran off camera when saying, “I gotta go.” 😂 I love Mae Whitman. Also Amity here seems pretty canon, lol.

So I just finished and I hope you enjoy the very little I have to say about it, but it is definitely worth watching. I’ll add a link to the panel to this post from my phone in a few minutes for those who want to watch it.

Also, as I said I’m not sure the table read they did is canon but by the sounds they will do a crossover eventually of The Owl House and Amphibia at some point which would be pretty cool.

Streaming hearts - K.K x Reader

FLUFF WARNING ! ! !

Characters ; Kozume Kenma x Streamer!Reader

Summary ; Kenma meets his Favourite Streamer at a Meet and greet

CROSSOVER WARNING ; THIS WILL INCLUDE DREAM SMP MEMBERS ! ! !

IRL!KENMA

Side Note ; Y/N is apart of the Dream smp! with their streamer name ‘ Kitten ‘, I’m sorry if some of the mcyt or others are Out of character, I don’t watch them and my friend requested this so i don’t disapoint her or you guys and minor spelling mistakes!.

Y/N Features ; Y/N will have brown skin and dark brown hair with Brown eyes, they have average body weight, they are short ( 4′7 ), they also have a soft-girl and E-girl kind of thing going. ( big anime fan ).

( Includes a little Body Positivity because ya’ll are beautiful )

SHORT ONE-SHOT ! SHORT ONE-SHOT !

Kitten is Streaming !

Kenma’s eye’s widened at the notification and quickly tapped it, His favourite Streamer of all time was online ! .

Kitten or Otherwise known as Y/N was a big part of the Dream SMP, They had joined about a few months ago but became famous after beating Dream’s speed-run. Y/N was 17 year old person with beautiful dark brown hair, Of course to other’s they were considered ‘ ugly ‘ but to kenma they were the most beautiful human being that had ever entered earth.

Y/N wasn’t skinny nor were they fat, they was considered ‘ Average ‘. It didn’t matter thought, They were perfect.

If You had stretch marks, you are perfect. If you were over-weight, you are perfect, if you had no hair, who cares ! you are perfect!. No matter what Kenma always knew you are the one, A special human being.

Kenma Loved every part of you. . . you . . . You were important to him, You were like a goddess Descending from the skies. You, Y/n was a special princess no Queen ! everything about you was just. . . Drop Dead Gorgeous.

“ What’s up Chat ! today we are playing some...Uhm..Roblox? “

Kenma snapped out of it as soon as he had heard your sweet voice echo away from the screen.

“ Oh yeah! today we are playing roblox with Quackity!. . Hello? “ Y/N said with a soft laugh, From the other end you could hear someone struggling to get the mic in the right spot.

“ stop laughing ! “ Kenma heard a male voice complained like a child, Quackity another huge streamer who was the closest friend to Y/n.

After a Few Minutes all you could hear was laughter and jealous kenma noises, Yes maybe Kenma did have a little Crush on them.

Y/n’s laugh was angelic. . . well kinda, honestly they sounded like they were having a concussion and demonic but it was alright. Kinda.

“ and that’s the end of the stream! see ya Kitties “

“ sounds like Tiddies “

“ shut up Alex ! “

“ don’t call me that ?! “

Kenma sighed as he continued to hear Y/N and Quackity argue for the a Hundredth time that stream, god they sounded like siblings fighting over the last piece of cake.

The stream turned off with the last goodbye from Y/n, Kenma smiled lovingly at the screen as if he had just saw a angel falling from the sky gracefully.

“ Kenma! why are you looking at the screen like that! “ Kuroo’s voice entered his ears, Kenma sat up straight and looked at kuroo dead in the eyes.

“ I’m not and how did you get in here?! “ Kenma demanded, Kuroo laughed like a hyena.

“ your mum let me in,Kitten. Now guess what i have “ Kuroo said.

“what? “

“ A single ticket for you to go to Y/N’s meet or greet! “

Kenma’s eyes widened, What. . . ?! he started feeling weird like some type of butterfly entered his stomach. His face dusted with pink blush as his heart exploded with happiness, He couldn’t function properly before he figured out he was now in kuroo’s arms hugging him.

“Thank you so much kuroo!! I promise i’ll come to practice more often now! “ Kenma yelled out of pure happiness, Kuroo smiled softly looking down at his pudding friend.

No one could explain how happy kenma was, Not only did he get to met his favourite streamer of all time but He could finally. . . well . . . meet them! Kenma felt like cheering and jumping up and down. He couldn’t remember when he was as happy as now.

He finally had a chance.

Kenma walked through the crowded halls of the meet and greet, his social awkwardness was finally kicking in. He had never been in a room as full as this, He could see boys and girls talking and socialising ( or whatever that was..).

“ Hey, you look lost ! “ a voice behide kenma said, Kenma turned around and was met by a beauty..Kitten..no Y/N! .

Oh how Y/n looked so much better in real life, Their shining dark brown hair was in a messy high ponytail, They were wearing kitty ears,Black leather jacket, a Pink crop top and ripped jeans. They were also very short compared to him.

“ Y..your Kitten ! “ Kenma stuttered, He started sweating a little bit at the sight of them. Gulping down a fan girl scream he just stood there, awkwardly.

“ oh yes ! I’m Y/N also known as Kitten, You must a fan. whats your name? “ Y/N Questioned, Kenma smiled a little and finally got comfortable.

“ I’m Kozume Kenma From Tokyo ! i also play volleyball “ He told her, Y/N giggling lovingly at him before take his hand.

“ I’ll take you to the others alright? The Meet and greet already started and i’m running late “ Y/n admitted embarrassedly , growing light pink of their skin.

“ Oh okay ! “

Y/n nodded and ran to the area where they were suppose to be with kenma in her hands ( does that make sense?? ), Kenma was a redder then a strawberry by now. People were staring and pointing at the two which made it way way worse.

by the time they had arrived everyone was already asking questions, till a fan suddenly pointed and screamed towards Y/n ( really?! ). everyone turned around and eyes widened at the connected hands of Y/N and a shy kitten looking boy. Minx suddenly took the mic.

“ oi Fucker, why are holding hands with my wife ?! “ She yelled out, a lot of people started laughing. Kenma really forgot, Y/n got minecraft married to Minx.

“ Calm down Waifu!, he’s just a friend “

“ You sound like adrien agrest, Y/n “ a fan said quite loudly, this time everyone laughed.

Kenma blushed and made a little kitten meow inside his nekoma jumper Yaku made for him, Y/N stopped laughing and turned red after hearing the noise come out of the boys mouth.

“ Hey y/n your fucking blushing ! “

“ Stop exposing me ! “

“ Never “

“ Shut up Childinit! “

“ Shut up Kitty-Licker “

It was never a surprise to see a arguement between a mcyt and Y/N always one of them gotta start drama.

“ Hey,here’s my number, text me sometimes cutie “ Y/N winked at kenma as they slid a paper into his jumper, Kenma gasped loudly before dying ( he didn’t really..you get it right oh okay ).

TIME SKIP

After 9 months, Y/N and kenma kept in touch talking to each other and sometimes meeting up in person. Which meant Y/N flying over to Japan and seeing his volleyball games, and sometimes they even streamed together. It was obvious they both had a crush on each other.

Sometimes Y/N would start blushing at Kenma’s sleepy voice and stuck up for him whenever some one would give him some type of hate, Or the time when someone called kenma ‘ their kitten ‘ Y/N would freak out and start cussing like crazy. it was funny .

Kenma would be such a big simp, He lied to Sapnap,Georgenotfound and Badboyhalo during a Minecraft man-hunt lying about Y/n’s location and tricking them. If Tommy told Y/n to shut up Kenma would Cat hiss at him or Bark sometimes.

No one had the guts to tell on of them that it was obvious about the crushes, as they didn’t want a cussing Y/n and a Cat hissing Kenma.

There was also jealous moment’s of the two, Let’s recap them shall we?. roll the clips ! ! ! .

CLIP ON KITTEN’S STREAM ‘ PLAYING AMONG US WITH THE CREW ‘

DEAD BODY REPORTED !

Y/N un-muted their mic as their screen flashed, Onto a Meeting. People already started arguing as they blamed each other, Y/N rolled their eyes and sighed deeply as they stared at the red tag on their name.

“ Well who was it ? “ Y/n asked calmly, “ Someone here is lying ! I was in electrical doing wires and the download task in there, Nikki and Tubbo were with me so i can back them up “ .

“ Yes ! We were all in a room together doing task! see ! “ Tubbo gloated out of happiness, Finally someone believed him.

“ I can vouch that, I was there too. “ Nikki said innocently.

“ Kitty, where were you ? “ Y/N questioned Kenma.

“ Oh, I was at security looking through the Cameras, I did the wires when i first entered. “ Kenma said, ignoring all the other voices..

“ were you really pretty boy ? “ Minx flirted a little, Y/n could feel a bubble inside of them building up as she semi-glared at their screen, The chat saw the semi-glare and started freaking out.

“ i was, Pretty girl “ Kenma flirted back, During his time with the group he slowly started gaining confidence.

“ ooooo pretty girl? fucking bullshit “ Minx exclaimed.

Y/n’s hands turned into a fist as they grew quiet, of course they knew it was all play flirting but the fire inside of them wanted to lash out and burst. Oh they knew who they were gonna kill next, Hopefully Dream ( The other imposter ) knew too.

“ Okay quit flirting in-front of KiTtYs S/O “ Wilbur Joked, They all laughed except for Y/n who was about to explode.

“ we are getting off track, George is DEAD! “ Dream said angrily, Everyone-else agreed and voted SKIP just for now.

NO ONE WAS VOTED OFF

Y/N quickly turned the lights off and everyone started running to fix the lights, of course as they were running Y/N killed Fundy who was standing right next to minx.

Y/N quickly ran in-front of minx as Someone reported the body,Oh hell was about to break lose.

DEAD BODY REPORTED !

“ that was quick ! “ Wilbur suddenly exclaimed, Tommy agreed.

“ Minx fucking killed Fundy! “ Y/N yelled, Minx pulled out a offended face and started cussing.

“ excuse me mother fucker!, I did not do any funny shit like that. “

“ yes you did! Fundy was right behide you, Of course i didn’t see you kill him but you and fundy were together ! “

“ I believe Y/n, as we were running i saw fundy and Minx last together “

“ are you FUCKING serious?! “

“ i believe Y/n, no matter what “

“ shut up pretty boy ! “

“ Guess we’re voting Minx off! “

“ NO YOUR FUCKIN NOT “

“ sorry minx”

“ it’s okay Nikki, and fuck you guys “

MINX WAS EJECTED

As everyone started running, Y/N and Dream stuck together following after Wilbur and Nikki. Of course they stuck together, Dream closed the Med-bay doors as Dream and Y/N killed Wilbur and Nikki.

After the door opened, they both ran out and met up with Tommy and kenma.

But Unlucky for them Dream accidently thought they were gonna do a double kill and killed Tommy in-front of Kenma. Y/N didn’t do anything but kenma had reported the body as fast as he could

Y/N gulped down guilt as the screen flashed, Maybe kenma knew it was Y/N? or maybe Dream would start hating for but nothing happened.

DEAD BODY REPORTED !

It was quiet, all you could hear was breathing in mics.

“ . . . I was alone. . . “ Tubbo said quietly into his mic, Y/N sucked in breath and bit their lip.

“ I was with Dream and Kenma...” Y/N explained. “ none of us could’ve done it except for you bo “

“ But..it wasn’t me ! “

“ it was, I mean we were all together the whole round except for you ! “

“ Yeah but that doesn’t make any sense,Dream!. I was at the other side of the map “

“ Sorry,Tubbo. Try harder next time “ Kenma chuckled a little after saying the sentence, Y/N froze. Was kenma really sticking up for them?...

“ but. . . Kenma ! “

“ sorry bo “

TUBBO WAS NOT THE IMPOSTER

Then the screen flashed.

IMPOSTERS WIN

“ REALLY?! “

“ KENMA THEY KILLED ME IN-FRONT OF YOU “

“ All i can say is simp “

“ Guys don’t blame kenma ! “

“ And people call me a fucking simp.”

“ sorry, but Y/N deserves a chance. “

“ what about me?! “

“ no <3 “

Y/N laughed as they started fake kissing kenma’s little icon, Kenma really was a simp.

“ Ew stop kissing there is children in here “

“ HEY “

“OI “

NEXT CLIP ( this one is short asf )

“ Hey Kitten, Your cute. “

“ HISS, HISS GET AWAY FROM THEM ! “

“ IT WAS A JOKE! “

NEXT SHORT CLIP

“ Hey kitty boy ~ “

“ Call him that again and your dead meat, Karl. “

“ :( “

END OF CLIPS

Kenma sighed as he Laid in bed, sadly. Today wasn’t a very good day in general, some kid decided to make fun of Kenma in a game and body-shamed him, It didn’t feel as nice when Kenma realised the young boy was right about him.

It hurt, it really did, Most people don’t understand how much it pains other people. Kenma Grabbed his phone and decided to finally tell Y/N how he felt for them.

i...was way too scared to ask you this for a while n you do NOT have to answer this whatsoever, but could you please do a part 3 to the Stand By Me/Lost Boys crossover?? its been living in my head rent-free <33

Aw, please don't be scared to ask me anything! I loved writing those last pieces, and this one was just as fun to do! Thank you for requesting it, I hope you like it!😊💛

I Think We Found A Body (Part Three)

The Lost Boys x Stand By Me

Warnings: blood, swearing

Masterlist

"Where the hell are we?" Teddy is quick to ask as soon as he is awake, the boy struggling to manoeuvre himself into an upright position, panic flooding him as he realises his hands and legs have been tied by a touch piece of rope.

"Some cave. Those men took us here last night, I guess." Chris informs him from his spot across the room, watching as his friend wriggles around on the floor, glad to finally have someone to talk to after spending what feels like an age staring at their sleeping bodies. He had woken up some time ago, unsure of what happened. All he knows is that it had been daylight outside this weird cave, but it had slowly faded into dusk, the interior becoming darker and darker by the minute. He'd tried to wake the others, but with no usable hands that had been very difficult, especially as he hadn't wanted to draw attention to them.

"Huh? Why didn't they just kill us?" Teddy's brow is furrowed as he manages to get himself leaning up against the old fountain behind him.

Chris shrugs, unsure himself why the killers hadn't just slaughtered them all in the dunes.

The two sit in silence for a moment, seemingly considering their options, watching over their unconscious friends idly. Occasionally, Vern twitches in his sleep, his muscles spasming a few times, though Gordie stays still, his narrow body lying limply at the foot of an old sofa. All of them were tied up, and their muscles were starting to protest against this, aches and cramps having settled in a long while ago.

"Jeez, what do we do? We can't stay here, they'll kill us!" Teddy suddenly blurts out, resting his head back against the dented stone behind him, eyes trained on the ceiling, "And I've lost my glasses!"

"Aw, yeah, I totally forgot about that. Can you see anything?" Chris responds, frowning as Teddy gives him a pointed look.

"I'm not blind, I can still see. It's just a bit fuzzy, that's all."

"Right."

"Should we wake the others? We should try and get out before those fuckers come back."

"I'm not sure. I tried to wake you guys earlier, but I couldn't move so it didn't really work." Chris adjusts his position slightly, hands going numb in their position behind his back, "But we could try again. If I come over there, we could try and untie each other."

"Sure." Teddy nods in agreement, sitting more upright as his friend starts to push himself onto his knees.

Awkwardly, the boy shuffles across the small expanse, ignoring the slight burn from the friction on his knees, his movements hindered by the rope around his ankles. Teddy shifts to get into a position where they are back to back, waiting patiently for the other boy to get into place, thinking through a strategy in his head. After a moment, Chris has reached him, and has managed to back himself into position, their hands just touching.

"Ok, you try and untie me." Chris says to him, holding still as Teddy immediately starts moving, fingers pulling at the rope. The knots are tight, and the position is awkward, but Teddy's persistence pays off as the bonds become looser, his fingers grazed and chafed now, though he knows the end result is worth the small pain. It takes a moment, but soon enough the rope drops to the floor, Chris pulling his arms around to his front, rubbing at his wrists as the blood returns to the cramping muscles.

"Come on, do me." Teddy hisses, wriggling his fingers at his friend.

"Yeah, yeah, hang on."

This time the process is much faster, the angle being a lot better for the boy to do what needs to be done. Teddy practically groans when his wrists are released, his skin red and raw from where the bonds had cut into him, his captors having tied the rope on very tightly.

"Help me wake the others. You get Vern, I'll get Gordie." Chris orders him, going to the skinny boy lying a little way away.

Doing so, Teddy carefully shakes Vern's shoulder, giving his face a gentle slap when he doesn't immediately stir. The boy grunts and twitches, eyelids fluttering a little from the intrusive actions. Rolling his eyes, Teddy quickly leans over, placing a hand over his friend's mouth before pinching the skin of his arm, doing it hard enough that he knows the boy will not be able to ignore it. Yelping in protest beneath his hand, Vern wakes up, panic filling his eyes as he glances around, body writhing to get away from who he thinks is his captor.

"Vern, shut up, it's me, Teddy!" His waker tells him, keeping his hand in place until Vern quietens significantly.

"Where are we? What's going on?" He rushes out as soon as he can, eyes wide.

"Those fuckers from last night took us to some cave. We've gotta get out of here, so shut up and let me untie you." Teddy informs him, moving to loosen Vern's bonds, swiftly freeing him.

"We're where?! They're gonna kill us! Oh god, they're gonna kill us!" Vern's eyes quickly fill with tears, but Teddy is quick to reprimand him, forcing him to his feet instead.

"Come on, we haven't got long." Chris hisses from across the room, helping Gordie up as he goes, the dark haired boy blinking blearily in the darkness that has settled into the cave.

Together, the four of them move to what they assume is the entrance of the cave, heading towards the lighter area, excited at the thought of escape. Outside, the sky has turned a deep blue, the moon just visible past the arch that creates the exit of this odd place, the boys unsure of where they are but aware that anywhere would be better than here.

It's just as they get to the very threshold of the cave that they notice the figure standing just past the rock, the trenchcoat and spiked hairstyle very familiar to them. Hearts dropping, the boys stagger to a halt as a low, mocking laugh echoes around them, the silhouette moving towards them, crowding them back into the cave. Terrified, the four glance around to check for other exits, only to notice the three other figures standing around them, eyes glowing as they grin wildly at them, fangs glistening in the dim light as Vern lets out a shrill cry of fear, the others gasping in horror. Pulling them to the side, Chris manages to recover quickly, yanking his friends towards a nearby tunnel, the darkened interior appearing safe to him until a pair of blazing eyes appear in the depths, laughter emitting from inside, taunting voices mingled with the malicious sounds.

Helpless, the four boys stagger back in fear, Gordie making the mistake of glancing upwards, suddenly catching sight of the leering faces above them, blood dripping from exposed teeth, disfigured brows cast in sinister shadows, the hissing chuckles falling from behind the murderous lips instilling an ice-cold fear within him. The boy screams, causing the others to look up and scream with him, all four falling backwards against the fountain, hands gripping at the rock. A sudden whoop of cruel joy erupts from the space behind them and a familiar blonde springs into view, looming over them as they seek refuge against the dilapidated water feature. His smirk is wide, amber eyes fixed on their paling faces with glee as they all shriek again and stumble to the floor, covering their heads with their hands, the four boys completely and utterly terrified.

As before, smooth laughter fills the air, the four voices easily distinguishable now, their captors coming to stand before them.

"Well that was a lot of fun." The horribly familiar voice of their leader breaks up the humour. Sounds of agreement come from the other three, snickers of amusement following them.

"Fuck you, asshole!" Teddy exclaims, breathing uneven as he looks up, face etched with fear despite his bold words.

"You're a bit young for our tastes, kid." The taller blonde chuckles, smirking down at him.

When silence follows, the four killers simply laugh again, clearly finding it highly amusing that the boys are in distress.

"What? Cat got your tongues?" The shorter blonde comments, biting his thumb as he struggles to hold back his laughter.

"What do you want with us?" Chris speaks up, sitting up beside Teddy.

The four men look at each other, as if conversing in silence, the leader clearly unsure of whether or not to continue.

"Well, to put it simply, we're gonna need your help." The platinum blonde finally explains.

Shocked and confused the boys sit in silence, staring at their captors dumbfoundedly, eyes wide.

"W-what? You want our h-help?" Gordie asks timidly, stammering under the intense stare of the four murderers.

"No, we don't want it, but we're gonna need it." The tall brunette puts in, scrutinizing the boys critically.

"And you lot have no choice in this matter, before you try to worm your way out of it." The leader interjects, going over to sit in an old wheelchair.

"W-what do you need us for?" Gordie asks, more curious now than afraid.

"Oh, you just need to get a kid to like you. After that, you're gonna lure him over here." The shorter blonde shrugs, patching on the arm of the sofa.

"...huh?" Is all Gordie can manage, completely baffled by the instruction. The others are similarly confused, though Vern is yet to look up properly.

The leader rolls his eyes, taking out a cigarette and lighting it.

"You heard what he said. You're gonna go on the Boardwalk and convince this kid to like you. Then you're gonna lure him to us." He clarifies again, inhaling a deep breath of smoke.

"But...why?" Chris chimes in, looking puzzled.

"That's none of your concern." The brunette states, staring down at them.

The boys are silent for a moment.

"Will...will you let us go afterwards?" Gordie asks, Vern looking up at this point.

The leader shrugs, exhaling his smoke into the room.

"Maybe, maybe not. You know too much, but you're too young to be of any other use." Is all he says, eyeing the boys idly.

Their hearts drop in their chests, aware now that they may not get out of there for a long time.

"Ok, what's this kid called?" Chris finally asks, hating himself for doing this.

The four killers smirk, glancing at each other triumphantly.

"Sam." The leader informs them, "Sam Emerson."

My Invincible Hero

(Just a experiment to see if these two properties work together for a crossover.)

The new dorms at U.A. Heights were a real change of pace for Mako, he had moved to Japan when he was so young that he barely remembered what it was like back in America. And they had always lived in their house since moving here that living at a dorm was.....ironically, alien to him. Not that it wasn’t bad or anything! Class 1A living together under one roof was, as he expected a blast, case in point the first night they all showed off their own rooms.

Still can’t believe Izuku still has all that All Might Merch......well not like I’m one to talk. he thought, leaning out from his desk chair to look at the bookshelf beside his door containing his massive comic book collection. His room was, in his eyes, very comfortable, he and his mom found a nice table set with comfortable cushions to sit down on that easily slid under his bed. Though he didn’t have a mini kitchen setup like Sato, no wonder he won their little room coemption.

Thank god we didn’t look in Mineta’s room.....uggghhhh. he thought with a sour expression. Looking over his completed homework, he stood up from his desk and looked outside the balcony window to his room. It was turning to dusk now but for Mako it might have well have been afternoon, he could easily towards the west until it was afternoon over in America if he wanted.

Looking over at his door, he saw his costume hanging up on a hook, the black, yellow, and blue costume hung up on a hook with his mask also looped around it, his gloves and boots were kicked off to the side after a long day doing some work for the GDA. After his dad.......left.....someone needed to fill in for him, and bypassing a hero license with Global Defense Agency’s license was easy for someone like the head of the organization. But it was nice to get back to school life for a few days.

Before the hero licensing exams that is, I’m still not sure why I need to take it considering I’ve been doing that sort of work for little over a year now. he thought as he walked out of his room. Just in time to see Kaminari rush by, “Hey man, what’s up?” he asked the electric user as he lifted up off the ground a few inches and floated after him.

“Oh! Hey Mako! You wouldn’t happen to have some popcorn would you?” he asked.

“Uhhh.....no? Why?” he asked in confusion as they stopped in front of the elevator.

The static user gave him a look, “Dude it’s movie night!” he reminded the fellow student. Mako wanted to kick himself, it was Friday night, of course it was movie night!! He was the one who suggested it in the first place! And it was also his turn to pick a movie!!! “Crap! Sorry, right. Yeah, um....no, don’t have any. But I’m gonna fly out, I can pick some up while I’m out.” he offered.

The spikey haired blonde clapped his hands together and bowed his head in thanks, “Your a lifesaver man!” he said, turning back the way he came as the doors to the elevator opened and Izuku walked and smiled to him in greeting.

“Hey Mako, I was about to do some training real quick, want to join me?” he offered.

When Izuku’s quirk finally kicked in, Mako was probably up there with his friend with how excited he was for him. It took a while....and some broken bones, before he could actually train with Mako, but as soon as he could he was more then happy to. “Sorry, I gotta fly home, grab a movie and some popcorn for movie night. I totally forgot it was my turn this week.” he admitted.

The green haired inheritor have him a understanding look, “It’s ok, we can some other time.” he said acceptingly, making Mako let out a breath. “Um....are you ok?” he asked.

He nodded, “Yeah, yeah just......the whole move here kinda screwed with my whole.....thing. That make sense?” he asked as they both entered the elevator.

Midoriya nodded in understanding, out of all of their class, Mako was probably the most busy outside of school. “Well, if you need any help, you know that I’m ready to help!” he said with a smile of encouragement. Mako flashed him one back, whenever his role as Invincible interfered with his schoolwork, Izuku had been there to help him out.

“Thanks man. Any recommendations for movies?” he asked as the doors opened to the lobby area and the two friends walked out through the lobby. While not exactly a rule, it was recommended that a couple movies be presented as possibilities, so that way they had multiple options in case it was voted down. This was mainly due to Mineta wanting to recommend a movie that was most likely a skin flick from the title.

Izuku rubbed the back of his head unsurely, “Hmm, I don’t know....maybe a mystery movie?” he suggested.

Mako shrugged as they walked towards the doors of the dorm, as Izuku walked off towards the lawn to start training, Mako walked down the path towards the school for a few feet before courching down and launching himself into the air, flying a good ten stories up before adjusting his course and flying towards home.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

After swinging by home, saying hi to his mom and grabbing some movies that he and his dad used to watch. Mako swung by a convience store to get some popcorn before flying back to U.A.

Wind blowing through his hair, he coasted through the sky as he let his momentum carry him. Contrary to what most people thought for people who flew without the use of some mutant type quirk, flying could tire you out, something Mako had learned early on when his powers started manifesting. If h wanted to he could be back to the school within a minute but decided to take his time and just relax.

That lasted for about then seconds before he heard a scream down from the ground.

Looking down he saw a gigantic man chase after a more norml sized one down the street, the giant man was three times the size of a normal person with viens all over his arms, chest, and neck popping out. Reminds me of guy Izuku fought at the training camp. he thought as he flew down towards the steeet, tossing his bag onto a rooftop before landing in font of the man, “Alright buddy what’s-” he started before the man’s arm reeled back.

“Uh pal I woudln’t-!” he started before he swung his arm and punched the side of Mako’s face with a loud crack.

It wasn’t from Mako.

“GAHHH!!!” The villain shouted as he clutched his now broken hand.

“Dude I tried telling you.” Mako replied, “Look I don’t know why your chasing that guy but I can’t let you hurt him.” he said as the large man held his hand.

“Why are you after me! That guy robbed my store!!” he explained. Mako turned down the street and saw the man, who mark noticed had a duffle bag in his hand, was running across a four lane intersection.

“Oh crap! Hang on.” he said before zooming over across the ground, grabbing the man by the bck of his shirt and flying back over to the muscle man.

“Hey! Let me go!” the smaller man shouted, he looked a little older then Mako, maybe his early twenties at most.

The muscular bald man pointed at him, “You stole from my safe you little punk! I oughta-” he started as he raised his unbroken hand.

Mako pulled him back, and raised a hand to try and calm him down, “Woah, woah, let’s calm down a second. Have you called the police?” he asked. The man nodded, “Ok then we can just wait for them to arrive to sort this mess out.” he reasoned. The man took a deep breath before raising his hands, “Why’d you punch me by the way?” he asked.

“Well I thought you were with him, I mean your around the same age so I thought you were his partner or something.” he explained.

Mako nodded in understanding, he could see ho he came to that conclusion.

“Hey you better let me go! I’ll report you for using your quirk illegally!!” The thief threatened.

“Dude I’m a hero.” Mako replied bluntly.

“What?! No your not! Your a normal guy!” he replied.

“I left my costume at my dorm, what do you think I wear it every time I go out? It’s not comfortable wearing something under normal clothes.” he replied before hearing a siren pull around the corner. After the patrolmen arrived, Mako showed them both his license and they promptly arrested the thief, as they put him in the back of the cruiser, Mako flew up to the roof where he tossed his bag before shooting across the sky back to U.A.

As he flew over the wall surrounding U.A. he started his decent when he noticed someone sitting down on one of the path benches. She had long blonde hair that went down her back and a pair of glasses over her light blue eyes that were looking down at the ground. She wore a coverall that was the same shade as her eyes with her name across the left lapel, Melissa Shield, the newest student of U.A.

“Hey!” he called out, she looked up in surprised and smiled as he flew down from the sky. Touching down gently on the ground, he smiled at her.

“Hey Mako, nice to see you again.” she greeted welcomingly, however he noticed the dour tone her voice had.

Melissa had begun attending U.A. after the I-Island incident, her old school was sad to see her go, but the blonde girl felt that U.A. was a good change after what happened with her father. She had met Mako and the others at the I-Island Expo, she started attending U.A. after All Might pushed for her to get a role in the support course, since her father was currently.....indisposed, All Might was her legal Guardian.

“You......doing ok?” he asked politely.

The american girl let out a sigh, “I’m.....managing.” he admitted. He gesuted to the seat beside her on the bench and she nodded.

“Well, if you want to rant or just talk, I’m here.” he offered jokingly.

She giggled at his offer, “No, it’s not that. Everyone here has been really welcoming to me. It’s just......a lot.” she admitted. “Moving from America to here was......well I know everyone is still adjusting to the dorms, but it’s.....well it’s a little more challenging then I thought it would be.” she told him.

Mako frowned, he had been thrown off balance by moving here but it was just a matter of time until he recovered. Melissa though, she had to move halfway across the world to be here, and that was after her father turned her world upside down. Man and here I am saying how rough I have it. My mom is just a short flight away. he thought scoldingly to himself.

“Yeah.....look, you know that all of us in Class 1A are here for you right? If you ever want to talk or something....” he offered, knowing that she got along well with all of the classmates she met at the I-Island expo.

The turned to him and gave him a confident smile, “Oh I know! It’s just....I don’t want to be a burden to anyone else by having them listen to my problems.” she explained.

He smiled, he could understood that. With all the crap he’s had to deal with the past year, keeping it to himself seemed like the best for a while. “Well hey, listening to problems is what a hero does. Hell earlier when I was coming back I had to listen to a couple problems before I could help.” he said, abridging the events of what happened. The blonde girl smiled softly at him, and Mako felt his stomach flutter from it.

“Thank you Mako......oh! I’m not keeping you am I?” she asked, realizing he was carrying something in his bag.

He shook his head, “Nah, we’re having a movie night and I needed to grab some flicks from my home.” he said, opening the bag and showing her the selection he picked.

Her eyes widened in excitement as she picked one out, “Oh I know this one!” she said, showing him the Dawn of the Dead movie he picked out.

She watched his face turn somber for a second, “Yeah. Me and my dad would watch that every year on my birthday.....” he said before smiling a little at the memory. Melissa felt a pang of guilt, what her fther had done for Uncle Might had been questionable at best, everyone knew what Mako’s father ahd done had been horrifying. But it was still HIS dad, she knew that as well as anyone. “Um....do you want to join us?” he offered.

Melissa was surpised by the offer but quickly smiled, “Of course! You don’t mind?” she asked.

He shook his head, “Nah, no one will. We’re starting at 9:30, be sure to be at the dorm by then.” he said as they both got up.

Melissa smiled and nodded, “I’ll be there!” she said ecitedly as she walked away, “And....thanks for listening Mako.”

He shrugged his shoulders, “Anytime.” he said before taking off into the sky and arching over to his dorm.

As he walked up to the door he felt his phone go of in his pocket. Pullig it out as he entered, he saw the caller I.D. and frowned, answering it, he flew up the stairs to his room. “Hey boss, what’s the problem.”

‘You remember the Elephant?’

Mako paused as he opened and closed the door to his room, “Uhhh.....no?” he said unsurely.

‘Big guy, dresses up like....well-’

“Oh! Oh yeah that guy, man I always forget about him.” Mako admitted as he tossed off his shirt and pants and slipped his costume on. It was mostly black with the shoulders and upper torso being covered with a light blue that curved around his pectorals and upper back but ended on a sharp end on his shoulders. on his chest and over the blue was a yellow block that went down from his pectoals and tapered off to a point towards the navel.

‘Yeah everyone does, anyway the transport containing him on the way to Tartarus was hit. Heroes are on the way with Endevor leading them, but I don’t want them getting away. So you go as backup.’

Mako pulled on the knee high boots that were the same blue as his costume, along with the yellow fingerless gloves. “Gotcha, is he the only one? I mean it’s the Elephant so I can’t imagine you need a full transport for him.” he explained.

‘Yeah, you’d be right. Some new baddie who just popped up. Don’t know who he is, but we can’t ahve a loss right now after All Might retired.’

Mako grabbed his mask, a yellow head sock that had an opening for his hair around his head and coverd his eyes with white goggles. It also streched around his neck and the top of his shoulders, making a ‘i’ on the front of his costume. Opening his balcony, he cracked his neck before taking off into the air. “I read you.”

‘Thanks Mako, you sure your up for this I can call someone else if you still need some time to recover.’

Mako smiled to himself.

“Don’t worry Boss, you know me. I’m-”

Writer Tag Game

I was tagged in ot by @oxygenforthewicked @emerald-amidst-gold and @blarrghe, thank you so much! 💕 And sorry it took me so long to get around to it!

I don't know who already did it but I'll tag @johaeryslavellan @hawkeish @mywitchcultblr @tessa1972 and anyone who would like to do this!

How many works do you have on AO3?

Officially? 6. Unofficially? 7

What's your total AO3 wordcount?

54 850

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

The Rumours About Us - 90

Four Weddings - 78

I'm Fine - 47

Breach Trip - 46

A Letter Between Friends - 23

Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I do! Generally, though I am pretty sure there are some comments I saw, told myself I'd respond later and then forgot. But I will get around to those for sure

What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?

I don't think any of them has an angsty ending. I am all for angst but with a happy ending and that's how I write my fics.

What's the fic you've written with the happiest ending?

Hmm, they all have a happy ending but probably Four Weddings? Maybe a fic that is still in the works, but that one is a little bit more bittersweet.

Do you write crossovers? If so, What is the craziest one you’ve ever written?

I did. Not anymore though. The craziest one would probably be one I wrote for just myself when I was like 13. It was Sherlock x Shadowhunters (the book, not the show). I am super embarrassed just thinking about it but I gotta say, the OCs for it were awesome.

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

Thankfully no😅 I don't think there's anything to get mad over in my fics and they're not overly popular, so it kept me safe

Do you write smut? If so what kind?

I do, though not much. I am trying to challenge myself to write more and get more comfortable with it and make it better. Usually it's smut with feelings

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

I don't think I did

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nope, but once I attempted to translate my own fic from my native language into language. I might get back to this idea one day

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

No, but I'd love to, HMU if you're interested

What’s your all-time favourite ship?

To write? Pavellan. Dorian is such a fun character to write and I love his dynamic with my Lys Lavellan. And I just really like the juxtaposition of Dorian, aristocrat from Tevinter and a Dalish elf, there's so many interesting things to explore in their relationship

What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

Ahhh, probably the one about Lys' roots. Lys was not born into clan Lavellan and I really want to write out how he got there and all the interesting things he learns during Inquisition but I just... Can't. I have a few different parts of the fic written out but I don't know how to tie them all together, how to introduce the new characters to not make everything immediately obvious and also just if anyone would be interested in reading this😅

What are your writing strengths?

Dialogue, internal monologue, emotions, dynamics between the characters. So all the static stuff haha

What are your writing weaknesses?

Setting the scene, background. It always seems stiff

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

I have done that so I think it's great. Bonus points if there's a translation in the notes or the language is named so we can pop the phrase into the translator

What was the first fandom you wrote for?

I think it was HP many many years ago

What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

Probably Four Weddings. The idea for it hit me like a brick and then I wrote 30 000 words in less than a month. I loved writing the fic, it was so much fun, planning the weddings, the twists, especially Sera and Dagna's wedding. It is also the rom com I want to see, so I keep re-reading it and I think it's great. Also, Bethany and Dorian being BFFs? Definitely one of my brighter ideas.

Star Wars Episode I The Phantom Menace The New Batman Superman Adventures

Batman, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern chase a time-traveling villain to the past, where they team up with the greatest heroes of the Old West.

The Justice League's adventures in time take them to a futuristic Gotham City, where they join forces with that era's Batman and his super team: The Justice League Unlimited.

When the evil Trade Federation plots to take over the peaceful planet of Naboo, Jedi warrior Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi embark on an amazing adventure to save the planet. With them on their journey is the young Queen Amidala, Gungan outcast Jar Jar Binks, and the powerful Captain Panaka, who will all travel to the faraway planets of Tatooine and Coruscant in a futile attempt to save their world from Darth Sidious, leader of the Trade Federation, and Darth Maul, the strongest Dark Lord of the Sith to ever wield a lightsaber.

The evil Trade Federation, led by Nute Gunray is planning to take over the peaceful world of Naboo. Jedi Knights Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi are sent to confront the leaders. But not everything goes to plan. The two Jedi escape, and along with their new Gungan friend, Jar Jar Binks head to Naboo to warn Queen Amidala, but droids have already started to capture Naboo and the Queen is not safe there. Eventually, they land on Tatooine, where they become friends with a young boy known as Anakin Skywalker. Qui-Gon is curious about the boy, and sees a bright future for him. The group must now find a way of getting to Coruscant and to finally solve this trade dispute, but there is someone else hiding in the shadows. Are the Sith really extinct? Is the Queen really who she says she is? And what’s so special about this young boy?

I’ve never experienced such delay in cartoons airing on TV as I have with the DC Animated shows. Ever since Superman: The Animated Series massive delays started it, it seems to have spilled over into every DC show since. Batman Beyond had it’s “Unmasked”, Justice League had it’s last half of Season 1 and almost all of Season 2 delayed for what seemed like forever, and now Justice League Unlimited it hitting every bump in the road: schedule changes, generic delays and problems with the episodes themselves, resulting in send-backs to the animation studios. “The Once and Future Thing” has been nearly every fans most anticipated story arc this season, and we’ve been waiting ever since June since the loglines were released. So was it worth the wait and agonizing speculation? Nothing ever is; fans over hype things to the point of exhaustion and by the time the episode airs everything’s been inadvertently spoiled via a careless lack of a spoiler warning. Nothing in this first part of “The Once and Future Thing” surprised me; things that would’ve excited me was the re-appearance of Jonah Hex (not seen since Batman: The Animated Series “Showdown”), Batman Beyond, Future Static and Warhawk’s appearance and the whole “Dad?!” line (I know I read somewhere that was going to happen). The Return of the Joker Jokerz gang did surprise me though, albeit if they are a bit changed (more on that later).

Where was I? “The Once and Future Thing” starts off with our first look at Future Gotham since Static Shock’s “Future Shock” crossover, bringing an already exciting mood to the episode (Batman Beyond is one of my all-time favorites, so I may be biased); we then meet the mastermind behind the episode, Chronos (“David Clinton” for those who are picky since “Chronos” was never directly named in the episode, aside from a quick throwaway comment on his suit). After a humorous scene with his verbally abusive wife, we’re thrown into present where he’s attempting to steal Batman’s utility belt from the Watchtower. The first odd thing in the episode occurs here: if an “intruder” alarm is sounded on the Watchtower, a supposedly impregnable fortress, wouldn’t more than just three heroes run to investigate? Batman, Green Lantern and Wonder Woman bolt right as the alarm sounds, while everyone else in the surrounding lunch room just sits and gabs away. I realize that’s probably an unavoidable hole due to only wanting Batman, Green Lantern and Wonder Woman to be the time travelers, but it’s still a bit odd, none the less. Before you sit down to watch this episode, you have to keep in mind that not all things are going to make sense; it’s time travel and that always manages to screw something up. We have mechanical Pterodactyls and Raptors with Cowboys riding on their back, robots dressed up as Old West Gun Slingers and a main villain who had a six-pistol gun. If you want to make sense of that…be my guest, but it’s really best just to sit and enjoy it as it plays out. Granted, you could justify everything that happened since Tobias just kept jumping into the future and hijacking this stuff back, but…dinosaurs? I don’t see the purpose for those, unless he wanted to scare people into doing his dirty work (ten foot robots and massive guns would do that for me anyway); regardless, they were fun to see, even if they were completely random. Heroes in the episode included El Diablo, Bat Lash, Sheriff Ohiyesa Smith and the aforementioned Jonah Hex. They were all great to see in animated form and I couldn’t help but laugh every time El Diablo talked, as his voice actor (Nestor Carbonell) played “Batmanuel” in the live-action The Tick! series (I think I’m one of few who loved that show). Jonah Hex was awesome to see again and Bat Lash was fun to watch as well.

The Wild West portions had their fare share of camp to them, but they were a fun little romp. Bruce refusing to carry a gun and then using his utility belt as a “Go on, I dare you” type move the cowboys used when reaching for their guns, Diana taking her time in deflecting the bullets (“These are the biggest, slowest bullets I’ve ever seen”) and John’s “Green Lantern” Ghost looked like something pulled from a Scooby Doo episode, were fun to watch. There were some nice character moments in this one, but honestly, I think we’re all just waiting for the second part. Speaking of the second part, we got a nice little teaser end to the episode. Landing in the future after chasing Chronos again, the League come up against the Return of the Joker Jokerz gang; descending immediately is the Future Static, Batman Beyond and Warhawk. Static appears much older than his “Future Shock” appearance and Batman seems to have lost the red on the interior of his wings, but Warhawk remains the same. The episode ends with the clinching “Dad?!” from Warhawk as he looks at Green Lantern, who then looks like he just saw Future Shayera in the shower. It was a great ending and created a session of out loud “I gotta wait a week to see the conclusion!?” cursing. Perhaps the most debated part of this ending was the reappearance of the Return of the Joker Jokerz gang; Bonk died on-screen (in both versions of the film, though one more graphic than the other) in the movie, while everyone else seemed to simply get taken away by the cops. One other thing to point out is Woof’s mechanical arms; definitely not on the original model and Chucko’s new look (different color shirt and is now carrying some sort of round object, similar to Ghoul’s pumpkin bucket), all suggest that the gang may be different. If they aren’t, I refuse to believe that one of the story writers of Return of the Joker and producers of Justice League Unlimited simply glazed over Bonk’s death or forgot; the gangs there for a reason that will have to wait for another week to find out. It’s sort of sad that all of the work that was put into the first twenty plus minutes of this episode are overshadowed by the ten second closer, but it’s to be expected. People have been hungry for more Batman Beyond and now that we’ve got him again, it’s gonna be hard to let go.

That was, bar-none, the most mind-twisting and blowing DCAU episode I’ve seen. It’s not that it was “crazy” or “kooky” or all together “spooky,” but trying to get everything straight with the Matrix code flying across the bat-computer screen and Bruce spouting off stuff about the “space time continuum”…just…ouchie. Confusing nature aside (and that will pass upon a few more viewings, I’m sure), this episode was pretty much what I expected it to be; not in plot points and twists, but just in that we’d get a fun romp through future Gotham City. I’ll be damned if it didn’t seem like time flew while watching it this though; commercial breaks came as soon as they ended and I had a goofy grin on my face the entire time, seeing the Jokerz back and Terry cracking one liners again…it was really was one of the biggest fan-moments I’ve had while watching Unlimited. The story itself, as previously mentioned, was quite the confusing experience. The first time I watched it I was just entertained by everything; by the second time I finally got a grasp on why Hal Jordan was appearing (other than to make everyone’s eyes bug out) and why everyone started to disappear. In the end, this trip to the future also ended up being an “alternate” trip to the future, as in the end everything was switched back to normal, albeit with Batman and Green Lantern only remembering what went on and Chronos stuck in a constant loop with his wife’s abusive language constantly recycling. D.R. Movie Co. threw in some new effects on the future Batman’s jet boots; instead of dissipating right away, they left swirly trails; though you only saw this once it was a great bit of animation. The city looked as dark and futuristic as ever and the Jokerz new designs were great as well. Chucko on a rolling ball, Bonk with a massive mallet, multiplying Dee Dee’s, a mechanical arm-enhanced Woof and a spinning saw blade on Ghoul. Anyone who didn’t get flash backs to Batman Beyond’s “April Moon” episode must’ve been delirious; then again, Chronos said he traveled into the future to get those upgrades, so either the doctor in “April Moon” didn’t exist yet or…ah hell I’m getting confused again. Regardless, it makes me long for more of Batman Beyond…but I’m sure I’ve said that enough by now.

Static was enjoyable as well; I never was one to watch the show much, sans the special appearances of other DCAU heroes, but an adult Static is definitely who I prefer. He’s got the wit of Flash and the strength of John Stewart and it was great to see the two interact as “old friends.” Warhawk’s “I’m shocked! Shocked! Well not that shocked…” revelation that he is Shayera and John’s kid and that they may have even gotten married (“Stewart” is his last name; he was named “Rex” after Green Lantern’s childhood friend, Rex Mason / Metamorpho) was nice to see extended upon. Even if we didn’t get much (due to the three Batman’s interrupting) else out of the two, it was fun to see where things progressed (and the look that John gives Shayera at the end of the show). The undisputed and best moment of the episode, however, was the scene with Bruce/Batman/Batman—we get the wise and old Wayne saying hello to his younger self and them both telling Terry to shut up in which Terry emits a “What’d they used to call it? Stereo?” quip. It was the things endless fan fictions are made of where the past meets future… I enjoyed this episode much more than part one; animation was awesome, music fit well with every scene and the characters were all handled nicely, even if there was an over abundance of them. Some may trash McDuffie’s writing, but I’ve enjoyed nearly everything he’s written on Justice League and Justice League Unlimited and this was certainly no exception.

Create sci-fi characters with this dress-up game inspired by the Star Wars movies, mostly the original trilogy with Luke, Leia and Han, and also with many items inspired by Padme, Anakin and Obi-wan. There are four themes in the game to approximate outfits from the show, and create new ones: Jedi martial artist, rebel, queen or princess, and slave. Complete her look with weapons, other types of accessories, body customization and a wide hair section. Also, to make the weapons brighter and the image altogether more dramatic, you can play around with the darkness setting!

This game inspired by the Star Wars saga lets you dress up a male counterpart to the original Sci-fi Warrior! Although the woman has more diverse clothes and some alien features, the man is more narrowly focused on the clothing style of Jedi and Siths (and restricted to humans). The religion of the Jedi, and this is reflected in their fashion style, is itself inspired by the Eastern martial arts and monastic orders such as the Shaolin monks, which combine a deep commitment to a spiritual path with the lifelong study of self-defense. While Jedi and Siths alike are warriors trained in combat, the difference between them is their power source: while Siths align with forces of destruction, and derive power from intense emotions especially anger and hatred, the Jedi curb their emotions and do not feel hatred for their enemy. The genius of this philosophy is that it holds the key to ending the cycle of violence: self-defense against an enemy who is not hated.

Carson/ Tyler series crossover (Part 1)

@writehardwhumpharder

Carson hadn't expected a knock at the door, it was around 4pm in the middle of June and Daniel wouldn't be home until 7:45pm. He answered the door only to see a familiar face he hadn't seen since November of last year. It was Tyler, a guy who he had met in Oregon on an investigation about magical murders all over the country. His striking purple eyes stood out the instant carson opened the door as well as the large scar on his forehead.

“What the hell?” Carson said in surprise “Why are you here? How the hell do you know where I live?”

“Riley told me.” Tyler said. If she’s gonna go handing around my information the least could do is give me some warning, Carson thought to himself. Just then his phone binged, it was a text from Riley saying she sent a special somebody over. The whole point of a warning is to tell me before something happens. Carson thought to himself.

“Well since you’re already here I guess you can come in.” Carson walked away, leaving the door wide open for Tyler to follow him.

“Thanks ya know,” Tyler said as he walked in ,closing the door and locking it behind him. “Are you still wearing pajamas? It's like 4pm ya know.”

“Eh, it’s the weekend,” Carson shrugged.

“Its Thursday,” Tyler corrected

Carson stopped in front of the couch and glared at him before sitting back down where he was sitting before he got there, “What’s your point?”

“I don’t have one.” Tyler usually was fully dressed and looking Presentable even on the weekends so he felt the need to comment on Carson's appearance.

“It’s kind of bad timing. I’m really busy today,” Carson sighed. Truthfully, he just felt a little uncomfortable and surprised.

“Really? What’cha up to?

“Uh…” He had to pause to think about it, he was sure he had something planned. Oh yeah, “Um, well, I was gonna have some tea later and maybe read a book…”

“Reading sounds cool, I don't like tea though, it tastes like grass to me.”

“Aren’t you like half-british?”

“No i was born and raised in America ya know, i just have the accent.”

“Coffee then?”

“You bet, could you put a lot of sugar in it?”

“Sure, whatever. Just sit down.”

Tyler took Carson's offer and sat on the opposite side of the couch.

“You can find a book to read as long as you’re careful with it,” Carson motioned to the massive bookshelf behind him, full of a strange assortment of books. Most of them looked worn and old. Tyler's eyes lit up like fireworks as he speed walked towards the books, he looked like a kid in a toy store. A lot of the books were magic, something that wasn't often sold in bookstores in his small town in oregon. Tyler had driven all the way from Oregon to New York because he had been given a three week vacation after being promoted after a case. He drove because he hated flying at all costs, it took him four days to get there. But he really enjoyed all the things he saw on the way there.

Tyler picked out a thick book that had something to do with magic items and went straight to reading. There were lots of things like how wands worked or how you could draw effective Magic circles. Carson brought over a cup of coffee and handed it To Tyler. Carson looked over his shoulder and looked at what he was reading.

“The journals are my favorite. I got all these from Daniel’s shop,” Carson said without looking up.

Tyler got excited, he had never seen anything like this before and there somebody was, who had a ton of it. “Really? Wait do you live here alone or with daniel? I kind of had the idea you guys were roommates in addition to being good friends ya know.

“With Daniel, he’s just at work right now.”

“Oh cool,” Tyler stopped and pointed to something written in latin. “What is this? I don't think I’ve seen it before.”

“Well I don’t speak latin but I can tell one of the symbols involved is about heat. So I guess it’s some kind of spell for that.”

“Could you teach me?” Tyler said setting his head on the back of the couch. “Ya know, how to do it?

“Personally, I manipulate heat by adding and removing life energy from a space. Can you move magic?”

“I’m not sure. Never tried.”

“If you can see it I’m sure you can move it. It just takes a lot of practice and guessing.” Carson told him. He set down his book to give him his attention.

“See what? Magic? You can see stuff like that?”Tylers curiosity peaked. He could sure sense magic and other psychics but not see it.

“Remind me, what are your powers exactly?” He needed a starting off point. Unfortunately, they were completely different kinds of magicians.

Tyler sat and thought for a second “Well I can see in people's minds, I can lift things and manipulate objects like a light pole or a cup. Oh if we had a small bit of something already burning, I could make it burn more, or snuff it out completely. “ Tyler paused and looked at the book. He had the power of a third eye but it wasn't fully in control yet so he didn't want to mention it.

“That’s basically like manipulating heat then. That’s how I make flames. I guess the real question is can you do the opposite and freeze something?”

“Hmm, Maybe if you gave me an ice cube in a cup of water i could make the whole cup freeze.”

“Give it a try. Kitchen is back there,” he pointed over his shoulder.

“Freezing something?” Tyler asked, tilting his head and shifting up his glasses.

Carson looked up at him, “Yeah. Let’s see if you can do it.”

Tyler got up off the couch and walked to the kitchen, “Which cupboards are your cups in?”

“Left of the sink,” he called back.

Tyler grabbed a cup that was plastic just in case it broke, so it would be easy to replace, filled it up with water, and put an ice cube in it then walked back to the couch. Tyler set the cup on the coffee table and sat on the floor next to it and concentrated. He took off his glasses and hooked them on the neck of his purple T-shirt. He stared intensely at the cup and hovered his hands over it. It took a minute but in a quick flash the water froze from the ice cube out as it cracked the cup. It let out a light wave of cool air around Tyler's hands and Carson could feel it slightly. “I'm glad I got a plastic one, right?” Tyler said as his nose started a small stream of blood.

“Jeez, you could have mentioned you have no control over your powers. Here, if you get blood on the couch Daniel will kill me,” he forced a box of tissues in his direction. Tyler grabbed a tissue and put it over his nose. He then noticed how cold his hands had become even though it was summer.

Tyler continued trying to freeze things and melt things for the next few hours while Carson coached him then somebody walked in the door. It was Daniel. He looked a little tired but not too tired.

Daniel set his things down then walked into the living room looking puzzled, “Hi Tyler. No one told me you were coming by but it’s nice to see you.”

“No one told me either,” Carson chimed in.

He sat down next to Carson then let his eyes trail down to the coffee table in front of him. It was littered with broken cups. “Uh… what have you two been up to?” Daniel perked up and started looking at the mess in front of him. Out of the corner of his eye he noticed the trash can had been moved to next to the opposite couch. “What the hell is that? Carson, did you-” He looked like he was about to start a lecture.

“Carson is teaching me how to manipulate heat, don't worry about your cups. I'll buy more for you,” Tyler said, still sitting on the floor then leaning back and supporting himself on his hands behind him.”Wanna see?”

“Sure,” he said.

Tyler grabbed a cup on the table that had not broken yet with a half melted ice cube and did everything he was doing before. “Cool ya know?” his nose started to bleed slightly again but not as bad as the last few times where it took two tissues to stop. Carson again handed Tyler a tissue so he could wipe away the blood.

Daniel’s brows furrowed slightly with concern and he looked between Tyler and Carson. “Yeah, that’s cool. Maybe you should take a break.” He suggested.

“Why? It’s kinda fun to do it. I can melt it too.” Tyler said standing up he became slightly unsteady on his feet as his minor blood loss made him dizzy.

Daniel quickly stood and grabbed his shoulder, urging him to sit back down. “Like I was saying, I think it’s a good time for a break,” he subtly leaned over and started gathering the cups on the table to take away.

Carson perked up suddenly, “Wait a sec. Where did your blob go?”

“Blob?” Tyler was confused for a second “Oh yeah. Milo? I made him stay back in oregon. I'm on vacation ya know. I can't just bring my supernatural entities anywhere.”

“Oh, by the way,” Carson leaned toward him, “Don’t open that door. Daniel’s cat, Pixie, is in there so just… try not to die.”

“Thanks for letting me know.” Tyler said. “ speaking of dying.” He asked Daniel to grab him his backpack that he had with him by the couch. Daniel did what he asked as Tyler took out his inhaler and took it even though he wasn't wheezing.

“What’s that for?” Daniel asked. He remembered Tyler had asthma but he seemed to be breathing okay at the moment.

“Flare up, it's when, maybe for a few weeks at a time, it gets really bad ya know. I gotta take an inhaler every four hours.”

“Well good luck with that,” Carson said. “So how long are you going to be in New York?”

“Two weeks,” Tyler said as he suddenly realized what time it was. “Aw shit. I forgot to get a hotel,” Tyler said while putting on a light sweater and trying to get his stuff together.

“Two weeks?!” Daniel asked in shock, “What kind of supernatural threat is out there you need to be here that long? God damn.”

“None,” Tyler said “I got a promotion ya know.” Tyler said with enthusiasm. in his voice “ I got a three week vaction ya know.”

“Congrats,” Daniel told him. “So what did you come all the way out here for if you’re not working? Don’t you hate planes?”

“I felt like it, I didn't really get a chance to go sight seeing when i was here last ya know?” Tyler said, shifting around. “Of course I hate planes, I drove here. You miss a lot if you take a plane ya know. It's not as interesting.”

“Sounds like hell but whatever, man.” Carson said.

Carson rummaged around the books left on the table and set some things aside, “So what’s for dinner?” He looked at Daniel expectantly.

“Oh, I don’t know. What do you think, Tyler?” Daniel asked.

“Carson doesn't eat meat right? How about stir fry? I know how to make it with ramen noodles. On worry by the way after dinner i'll go find a hotel that takes in people at the desk.” Tyler got up from the couch, Daniel was ready to grab him if he fell, he was still slightly worried about his blood loss. "Come on I'll teach ya how to make it." Tyler said coaxing Daniel to get up. They both went to the kitchen as Daniel grabbed things Tyler asked for like broccoli, corn ,carrots and five packets of ramen. Tyler pulled all of his hair back into a bun and washed his hands. While Tyler was cooking Daniel was making sure to write down all of the steps to make this for future reference.

By the end there was a large pan full of stir fried noodles. Daniel never really made this much before and the amount seemed a little much just for the three of them . It made Daniel wonder how big Tyler’s appetite really was. They all sat down and started eating. Carson wasn't always the biggest fan of food but it actually tasted pretty decent to him. Daniel got the idea, since everyone is allowed to drink alcohol that he would bring out wine for everyone.

Daniel stopped to think for a second "Tyler, do you drink?" He asked. To him, Tyler didn't look like the kind of person that drank alcohol.

"Yep, Not beer ya know, it tastes like a sewer." Tyler replied.

"I can agree with that." Carson said looking up from his food.

"It's wine," Daniel said, bringing over three cups. "How well do you handle alcohol? Carson's a light drinker so he gets tipsy pretty quickly. He's also kind of a light weight," Carson was a little offended by that comment. He wasn't that light of a drinker.

"How much do you weigh Carson?" Tyler asked.

"Around 145 pounds, You?"

Tyler's face turned slightly read like he was embarrassed. "136," He said, scratching the back of his neck. Tyler never went out of his way to not eat, in fact he had a very big appetite. It was just that when he worked he would frequently forget to eat. He would frequently go through periods of losing and gaining a normal amount of weight.

"Do you even eat dude?." Carson asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Of course I do. I get distracted with work a lot. I got bills to pay ya know."

Carson moved his plate out of the way so Daniel could set down three glasses, “I picked a white wine, hope that’s okay with you, Tyler.” Once the glasses were full Daniel sat back down. “Carson wouldn’t eat either if I didn’t shove three plates of food in front of him everyday,” he shot him a look. Tyler laughed, these guys were entertaining.

Carson rolled his eyes but continued to poke at his food while Tyler scarfed down his whole plate at record speed. They were starting to understand why he cooked so much. He stared at the wine curiously and sniffed it before drinking. He had a strange habit of doing that with new things he ate or drank. They ate and drank, Carson and Daniel found out quickly that Tyler couldn't hold in alcohol because his half british accent became more incoherent as he started to sound like a sailor. It got worse when he insisted that Carson would teach him some simple magic. Daniel grabbed a piece of paper and a magic book and set them down in front of Tyler.

“What’s that for?” Tyler asked as Daniel pulled out a marker.

“We're gonna draw magic circles,” Daniel replied, flipping through the book then pointing to a symbol on the page. “Try and draw this.” Tyler took the marker and started drawing the circle on the page, it would be pretty accurate if the lines hadn’t been slightly shaky.

“Lets see if it can actually hold magic” Carson said. Flipping his vision to see if there was magic being held in it. Little flakes of magic were floating around in it like dust so it would hold well enough.

“Did it work? Tyler asked, resting his head on the table.

“I don't know, did it?”Carson asked. Carson could see if it was working but Tyler needed to figure that out for himself. Tyler studied the circle for a minute looking at it trying to see what he could find. He decided to put his hand over it when a sudden tingly feeling like tv static came through his fingers. “That feels weird, I think it worked.” Tyler said.

For the next hour or so. Carson and Daniel thought Tyler magic circles and how they worked and what they did. Tyler himself wasn't a magician , he was a psychic he dealt with more of a mental side but he was still capable of using it. Before he realised it it was around 10:30 pm. “Aw crap, I need to go. I still haven't checked into a hotel.” He said, grabbing his backpack and stumbling around before Daniel grabbed his arm.

“Do you really think drunk driving is a good idea?”Daniel asked with full intention of keeping Tyler there for the night.

“Good point,” he said “But where do I go now?” Tyler asked, the fact didn't click in his drunk brain that he already had somewhere to stay.

“Here, where else?”

“Oh, I'll sleep on the couch then.”

“You can take Carson's room.” Carson perked his head up in annoyance, that was his room Daniel can't just give it away.

“Won’t the couch do? Can’t I just sleep there?” Tyler asked Daniel, he didn't want Carson to be annoyed at him.

“Yeah Daniel, why can't he sleep there?” Carson complained

“Because i say so, he can’t stay in my room, Pixie's there. Your room is the only cat-free space in the whole apartment”

Tyler just kind of sat there with Daniel still holding on his arm he was definitely buzzed because his brain felt like TV static. “Can I have my arm back now?” Daniel looked back and let go of his arm “Sorry man,”

“Eh it's fine” They continued to sit around the table for a while talking about nonsense until they all got tired and went to bed, Tyler apologized to Carson for stealing his room as he only got a grunt as a response. Tyler sat on carsons bed and noticed a few bottles of pills; they were mainly bottles of antidepressants. He laid on his back and just stared at the ceiling, as he fell asleep the thoughts of other sleeping people rushed through him like he was used to.

Carson woke up around noon to find that Daniel was at work and Tyler was still sleeping. He had left the bedroom door slightly open so Carson could see him. He noticed that he tended to cough a lot in his sleep. He sat on the couch for an hour or so watching TV until Tyler finally decided to wake up and go sit on the couch with him and took a puff of his inhaler. Neither of them bothered to say anything, choosing instead to just focus on the show. They sat there quietly until Tyler stood up, grabbed some clothes, and asked if he could use the shower. Tyler took a whole twenty minutes in there, most of it was spent on his hair but he still took forever.

“I'm gonna go sightseeing, wanna come?” Tyler asked, coming out of the bathroom and putting on his glasses.

“Dunno,” Carson said from the couch with a sigh. He didn’t have any plans but he didn’t know if he wanted to go out either.

“I was thinking of going to Daniel’s bookstore. I’ll drive us...” Tyler suggested, trying to coax Carson into coming with him because he really didn't want to go alone.

“Fine,” Carson said. Tyler waited for Cason to get changed and ready to go. As he did, Tyler slipped his inhaler into his pocket and put on his purple converse. His hair tied in a bun which he always did in the summer. Tyler wore a short-sleeved white shirt and black cargo shorts that went to his knees. The shorts exposed a large scar on his right leg that he had gotten last November. Coincidentally, the last time he saw Carson before visiting.

After about ten minutes, Carson came out of his room in a button down shirt that he rolled the sleeves on to make it a little more appropriate for the weather. He slipped on his old grey converse that stopped just below the ankle. You could see Carson's mismatched socks peeking out. They walked down the hall and took the elevator down to street level. Tyler's car was parked around the corner at the closest available parking spot. As they walked Carson made a mental note to have Tyler park in the garage under their building when they get back. Tyler got behind the wheel then realized he didn't know where Daniel worked. “Hey, wanna drive? I don't know where he works and this city is huge.”

“Don't have a license,” Carson responded.

“Oh, why not?”

“It's not my fault, okay?” he said groaning, “Some idiot doctor misdiagnosed me and they took it for medical purposes. My lawyer is working on it.”

“That sucks ya know, sorry about that.” He said while turning on his phone and giving it to Carson. “Could you put in the address?”

On the way, Tyler took the time to admire the scenery every time he stopped at a red light. The buildings were huge. They towered over everything that would have been in Tylers town; the tallest building there would probably be the clock tower at the church. Several times Carson had to remind Tyler to keep his eyes on the road but his eyes couldn’t help but wander up the tall buildings, casting shadows over the road. It wasn’t long until they got to the bookstore and Carson directed him to park around back so they could avoid the meter.

A little bell chimed when they walked in and Carson immediately started looking for Daniel among the mess of bookshelves. There were a couple customers walking around, minding their own business.

Daniel poked his head up behind the register, ready to greet who he assumed were customers. His brows furrowed with surprise, “H- Wait, why are you here? Did something happen?” He asked, straightening up and walking around the counter to them.

“Nothing’s up, Tyler just wanted to see the city.” Carson told him, “Of course I generously offered to be his guide-”

Tyler cut him off, “No you didn’t.”

Daniel laughed and led them to the back room knowing they would probably prefer to look at books in private, away from the other customers. Carson walked around the place like it was his second home, he knew where everything was including the secret stash of magic books.

“You know, the cool thing about this place is that it isn’t just a regular bookstore. They specialize in rare, hard to find books. A lot of them aren’t even published, some are even handwritten by the authors. You never know what you might find,” Carson said proudly.

Tyler picked up a book and opened it to a random page, “Speaking of which, what the hell is this?”

Carson tilted his head to read the title, the ink was so washed out he could barely make out the letters, “Hmm, that one looks like a journal,” he looked over his shoulder to see that it was handwritten and pretty badly at that, “Yep, definitely a magician’s personal notes.”

“What’s this language?” Tyler asked.

Carson smirked, “English. Look closely.”

Tyler squinted at the book. The words really were in English. “Why is the handwriting so bad? It's worse than mine.”

“Eh, I’ve read that guy’s stuff before. Pretty sure he was an alcoholic,” Carson shrugged.

Tyler studied the handwriting as much as he could because some of it was faded. It did seem similar to somebody's handwriting that was intoxicated or high. That is something he was frequently used to analyzing since he was a detective. He also noticed there were a few strange blotches of something on the pages too, it might have been alcohol. If it wasn't he didn't want to know. “Probably, look at the stains, it might be alcohol ya know.”

“Hey can I see that real quick?” He asked, pointing at the book in Tyler’s hands.

“Yea go ahead,” Tyler said, handing the book over to Carson.

He wasted no time opening it up and holding it close to his face. Carson sniffed it so aggressively it was like he was trying to huff the damn thing. “Spiced rum, the good stuff,” he concluded then handed it back to him.

“What? How the hell do Ya know that?” Tyler asked in surprise “That thing is like 80 years old!”

“How don’t you know? You’re a detective aren’t you?” Carson didn’t mean it as an insult, it just seemed like something worth knowing in that line of work.

“I have literally drank three times in my whole life I wouldn't know. I'm not a forensic.”

“Sometimes I forget how young you are. Although that shouldn’t matter, I started drinking at 15.”

“That explains a few things,” he said jokingly and laughing. “I didn't drink until I was almost 23.” Tyler paused for a second and processed that Carson called him young. “Wait I'm not that young you're only like three and a half years older than me!”

“No way, you’re at least ten years younger than me.”

“I'm 23 not 16,” Tyler pouted.

“That’s not what I meant,” Carson clarified, “You’re 23 and I’m mentally, physically, and spiritually 34 if not 50.”

“Old man,” He said with a smirk. Tyler was probably a little immature because of the years he missed in a coma after a plane crash but he didn't want to admit that because he didn't want Carson to be right. “You do seem to have a lot of grey hairs ya know.” He said

“Take that back.”

“I’m just kidding. You don't have grey hair.” Tyler could hardly speak for himself; small chunks of his hair were still grey from going overboard on his powers last November that he neglected to dye brown again. He was hoping Carson wouldn't notice since his hair was up in a bun but a small chunk was pretty clear from his bangs.

“What about that?” Carson asked, gesturing towards Tylers bangs.

“I have no clue what you’re talking about.” Tyler said brushing at his bangs that were parted to the side.

Daniel laughed at the two of them while he worked around them. Tyler walked around some more, still fumbling with his bangs. He got lost in the bookshelves of old and newer books. He picked up books and pulled down the books he couldn't reach, levitating them with sheer will. He wasn't super aware of how people treated stuff like that in New York, good thing nobody saw him. He picked up a little black notebook full of notes and stuff it that was sitting on a table by one of the bookshelves “Hey this one is magic too right?” Carson walked over looking over Tylers shoulder. “I'm not sure it's real” Tyler said, “It doesn't feel tingly like the other ones.”

Carson stared at the book and smirked “That's Daniels ya twat,” he said mocking Tyler’s accent yet again as he grabbed the little book from Tyler's hand and stuffed it in his pocket and walked back to a little table in the corner. Tyler continued gathering lots of different books he decided not to grab anymore as this much would probably cost 300 dollars.

He went to a table Carson was sitting at and threw down a mound of books from fantasy to sci-fi to magic and got to reading. He got lost in his reading, he had a very bad habit of zoning out anything and everything when he was into reading.

Carson just sat there and watched as Tyler practically molded his face to a book and darted his eyes around at a very fast pace. He was sitting there looking at his own books. A couple hours passed like that and when Carson eventually got bored he went to help Daniel with the shop. When he grew impatient, Carson tried to get Tyler’s attention.

“Tyler?” Carson said looking up at Tyler who gave no response “Hey, four eyes,” he said a bit louder. It took Carson flinging a pencil at Tyler to get his attention.”Asshat” Carson thought into Tyler's head.

“Huh? What?” Tyler asked.

“Is this what you call sightseeing? We’ve been here for two hours.”

“Really? I thought it was maybe thirty minutes.” Tyler said, getting up and stretching. He grabbed his mound of magic and other books and took it to the counter that Daniel was sitting at. There were probably thirty or more books in that pile.

“Do you plan on starting your own library?” Daniel asked, starting to scan Tyler's books He noticed that Tyler seemed a lot more lively than when they had met the first time. He was probably drained and stressed out the whole time then but now, even the dark circles under his eyes had almost completely faded. This was how Tyler really was, a good kid. While he was 23, he acted a lot younger. Another thing he hadn't noticed before.

Tyler grabbed all of his bags of books and called over to Carson so he could get help bringing them to his car. He had to bring the books to the counter in several trips and he didn't want to take several trips to the car in 90 degree weather. "Ya coming with me or am I leaving you here? Tyler asked.

"I guess I'll go with you. I have nothing better to do." Carson said, tossing a bag of books into the back seat of Tyler’s little red car which had a lot of stuff in it like suitcases and backpacks. He shut the door and he got into the passenger side door.

"Do you feel like getting food? Have you eaten today? I haven't.” Tyler said, starting the car.

"I could go for some pizza I guess,'' Carson said as Tyler pulled out onto the road. As they were driving, a car pulled out of nowhere and Tyler had to slam on the brakes.

“WATCH WHERE YOU’RE GOING YOU JACKASS!” Tyler screamed. It startled Carson more than the car because of how loud his voice was. He sounded like a really angry european. A street lamp simultaneously bursted above them sending sparks onto Tyler's car.

Ah, not again. Tyler said swinging his head into the headrest of his seat.

“What? That car almost hitting us?”

“Yes, but no. I blew a street lamp again.” he said.

“You blew that? Do you have any control at all?”

“Apparently not.”

“You’ve had magic for a while now, right? You should have more control than that.” Carson said that thinking Tyler had had his power for at least ten years or so.

“Two years, two and a half if you want to be precise.” Tyler said, pulling into the parking lot of a pizza place and sat in the car for a minute. “After the plane crash I died several times before going into a coma, I didn't wake up with them but shortly after I got out of the hospital I managed to accidentally blow out the tv in my bedroom as well as other things like an old nebulizer and an entire bookshelf had all my books fly off of it when I wanted to get a book but didn't have the energy to go grab it. I saw a ghost for the first time, it was Milo just sitting there on my bed like he owned the place.”

“So the first ghost you ever saw was a cat?” Carson asked.

“Weird right? I didn't think he was a ghost at first.” The more tyler thought of it the more he realized he might have seen a lot of ghosts back at the hospital but might not have noticed that they were.

“Well it’s probably less startling than a human ghost. Anyways, two years isn’t very long. Where did you get so much raw power?”

“I don't know where it came from to be honest, I kinda just woke up with it one day out of the blue.”

“Fair enough. I don’t know how this shit works either,” Carson shrugged.

“Seems pretty accurate, let's go in and get pizza, we can find somewhere to eat it after.”

Tyler and Carson walked into the pizza place. Carson had been there a few times so he was familiar with the menu. After about ten minutes they walked out with a pizza, half cheese, half Pepperoni and olives.

Though they were past the hottest part of the day, the heat didn’t seem to be letting up at all. The sidewalks were still packed with people so Carson suggested they get off the main road and head over to the park where there would be some shade. Despite living so close to the park Carson had only wandered in there a couple times. He wondered why it took Tyler coming to visit to get him out of the apartment. They walked around for a bit, Tyler holding the pizza box. They found a bench to sit at so they could eat.

“I didn't know places like this had little ponds.” Tyler said, looking to an empty part of the park where there was nothing but grass. Carson wasn't sure what Tyler was talking about or what he was looking at because to him nothing was there.

“This park is kind of known for its ponds and bridges but that patch of grass isn’t one of them, dude, what are you looking at?”

“What? Are you blind it's right in front of us.” He said resting his head on his hand and staring at seemingly nothing.

Carson glanced at Tyler skeptically and out of curiosity he decided to look with his magical senses. What he saw didn’t look like a pond but there was an odd concentration of magic there. Carson stood up to get a better look, “Oh shit, you’re right.”

A couple walking by gave them weird looks and walked a little faster to get away from them.

“Wanna see it?” Tyler asked Carson, perking his head up. Carson might not be able to see like him so he thought he might want to try.

“I don’t know what there is to see but I guess so.”

“Okay you need to look directly in my eyes, I'm going to look like I passed out but it's fine.”

“Uhh is this going to hurt?” Carson asked.

“No if it didn't hurt Jared you'll be fine, the worst that could happen is somebody's nose bleeds a little bit.”

Grimacing slightly, Carson agreed and looked into Tyler’s purple eyes. It took a second but Carson felt a spark of Tyler's magic before his eyes rolled back and he fell off the seat onto the grass, his blue rectangle framed glasses flying off his face. Carson just sat there for a minute blinking a few times before catching something in the corner of his eye. There was a small pond right in front of where they were sitting just like Tyler said. The water was clear and sparkly, it even had fish and a few frogs in it. There was suddenly a couple sitting on a bench that wasn't there before. It felt strange, almost like a dream. Carson didn’t have full control of his mind as he watched the couple with fascination. It was almost like seeing back in time. They looked so happy. Do all souls look like this to Tyler? He wondered. Carson wanted to get closer but he felt the connection wavering and the next time he blinked his eyes, they were gone. He had the distinct feeling of waking up, coming back to reality. He hadn’t even noticed that Tyler was on the ground next to him, seemingly unconscious.

Tyler started to stir, and opened his eyes, he laid there for a second then stood up brushing himself off and putting his glasses back on. “Did it work? Did ya see?” he asked.

To his surprise, Carson was frowning. He seemed sad. “So… this is what you see. They looked just like people.”

“Yeah,” Tyler said, noticing the look on carsons face. “What's wrong did it not work that well?”

“We can’t leave them there.” He said suddenly. “Dead souls aren’t supposed to stay in the living world, it’s not right.”

“Do you have to take them now?” Tyler asked, staring at the bench where the couple were. Carson could no longer see them as people. Instead they appeared as plain little souls that were very faint to his eyes.

“Do you have a better idea?” Carson asked him seriously. He knew that Tyler saw spirits but he never questioned how he uses that power.

“I'll go talk to them, if they have to move on better give them a heads up right?” Tyler said getting off the bench and walking around the empty patch of grass where the pond was. Carson stayed a few steps behind him. Tyler stood there and introduced himself like it was all normal and explained who they were and what they were doing. It looked like he was talking and responding to thin air.

Carson waited for Tyler to give him the go ahead then he approached them. He had to really squint with his magical vision to even know where they were. He’d seen recently deceased souls before but the couple’s were especially dim as if they had been there for a long time. Closing his eyes, he held out his hand and grabbed onto the souls. Before he could really do anything Tyler nudged his arm “At least tell them your name ya know, I would wanna know who's taking me to the afterlife.”

Carson put his other hand over his outstretched palm as if that would somehow keep them from hearing him, “And tell them what? Hi I’m Carson Hall and I’m the grim reaper here to send you to death. Have a nice trip?”

“Yes, straight to the point. These people already know they're dead.”

Carson rolled his eyes but did it anyway feeling incredibly stupid for talking to thin air, “Whatever. I’m Carson and it’s my job to send lost souls like yours to the afterlife.” Carson waited for a second while Tyler looked like he was listening to what they were saying.

“They figured this would happen.” Tyler said as he shrugged his shoulders.

Without wasting any more time, Carson knelt down and put his hand on the ground. Tyler could see the smoky shadow under his hand for a split second before it was over and they were gone. “Well this isn’t how I planned on spending my night.”

“Eh, adventure is fun when you're not dying ri-” Tyler screamed and it sent Carson into a fight or flight response. He looked around then back at their table “The pizza!” Tyler screeched. It was getting eaten by pigeons as Tyler rushed over there like he was the one in danger, not the pizza and shooed them away. He regretted running immediately as it made him out of breath. It was too late, the pizza was half gone.

Carson took his sweet time walking back to the bench, “Give it up man. It belongs to the birds now.”

Tyler sat there and pouted and took a few puffs of his inhaler before complaining. “I spent 15 bucks on that ya know,” he whined.

“Who cares? We’ll get more on the way back.”

“I can't spend all my money on just pizza. I have about two thousand I can spend on this trip, most of that was for the hotel I planned.

“Why don’t you just use your powers to make money?” Carson asked him seriously, “Besides, you had $300 to spend on books this morning. Now you’re telling me you’re too broke to buy some pizza?”

“Good point, on both parts.” Tyler said grabbing the pizza box and shoving it into a nearby trash can. “What do you do to make money? You work at the station right? With Morris.”

“I’m a magical consultant, I don’t get paid shit for that. I make most of my money by doing side jobs.”

“What kind of jobs?” Tyler asked as he and Carson started walking back to the car.

“It’s pretty simple. I just find a rich person with an incurable disease and ask them how much their life is worth to them.” Carson didn’t even try to sugarcoat it.

“Sounds hard, wish I had thought of that. I would have enough money to have you cure my asthma ya know,” Tyler said laughing that turned into a slight cough.

“Well it’s not like your asthma will kill you, right? I mostly help people with terminal illnesses.”

“It could if it got real bad, but it has never gotten to me not breathing at all ya know, i've been taken in to the ER though, the staff knows my name how funny is that.”

“Sounds like a real pain to live with.” Carson commented as they got back into Tyler’s car. “They know my name too but not a good way.”

“How's that?” Tyler said starting up the car.

“You haven’t noticed? People hate magicians. At least they do here. The gangs really don’t help with our public image.”

“How bad is that hatred here? It's not so bad in my hometown. Since we are small, there isn't a whole ton of crime there up until recently.”

“I grew up in a small town,” Carson said bitterly. “Didn’t stop anyone from hating me that’s for sure.”

“Go ahead and talk about it, i'm the only one here ya know”

“Eh what’s the point. Everyone hated me and tried to kill me a couple times, end of story.” He said with a sigh.

“KIll you?! I-its okay i won't pry if you don’t wanna talk about it then don't if it makes you on edge.”

Tyler seemed like the one on edge but Carson took his offer, no reason to bring up the past now. “What about you?” He asked, trying to change the subject.

“How do people treat me?

“Yeah.”

“I'm not sure, I know Ramin was sent to keep me from killing anyone but other than that, people don't really care unless you hurt somebody.”

“What about highschool?” Carson asked for a split second forgetting that Tyler didn't have any kind of power in highschool.

“I didn't have any kind of power then, You wouldn't believe if I told you I was the athletic kid who always got into fights, I got along with people but I only had like two real friends.”

“Yeah, I'm not sure I believe that.” Carson said, letting out a small chuckle.

“It's true I have pictures of me on the soccer team in 10th grade. Winter was really hard to do sports since it was so cold so I stuck with just bowling.” Tyler paused and thought for a moment, “I've been suspended several times too, I got in a fight with this guy and he tried to take Jared’s backpack and my inalor so I couldn't fight back. I sucker punched that son of a bitch and got our stuff back. You wouldn't believe how much trouble I was in.”

“For defending yourselves?”

“No, I mouthed off to the teachers. Since the guy threw the first punch My mom wasn't too mad about that. I had to sit in a chair with soap in my mouth at home until I went to write an apology letter and personally apologize for mouthing off.”

“What did you say?” Carson asked. He never would have guessed Tyler was like that as a kid so his curiosity got the better of him.

Tyler took a breath and smiled. “You guys are a bunch of sorry bitches if you are defending the pathetic excuse for kids who can't fight without a handicap.”

Carson was surprised by how Tyler was almost completely contrasted with what he was like now. Carson can't really judge though after all he had killed his own classmate. He just couldn’t see Tyler being so aggressive, it seemed out of character for him. Carson just nodded awkwardly, not wanting to comment either way.

Carson didn't say anything but Tyler couldn't help but laugh. He started laughing a lot which triggered a short coughing fit that had him setting his hand on his chest.

“You’ve been coughing like that alot, I'm not going to have to heal you again right?” Carson didn't want to use his magic unless he really had to. He has had to heal Tyler’s asthma once before it took a lot out of him but this time Tyler had an inhaler so it should be fine.

“No, I've been outside a lot today, it's normal.” Tyler said, clearing his throat. He saw a music store while driving. Maybe they had a keyboard there that he could get really cheap. “Hey do you mind if we pull into this music store real quick? I wanna take a look around ya know.”

“Do whatever you want,” Carson said casually though Tyler noticed out the corner of his eye he seemed to be squirming a bit.

“I won't be in long I promise, are you gonna wait here or come in with me?”

“I’ll come, no point waiting in the car.”

“Okay,” Tyler said, pulling into the music store parking lot and getting out of the car. “I still have to buy you guys new cups too I must have broken like 12 of them”

Tyler and Carson walked into the music store. It smelled nice, like an old wooden house. “Welcome,” the cashier said as a little bell chimed from the two walking in the door. Tyler went directly to the area where the keyboards were. “Do you have any of these used, maybe under 70- dollars?” The cashier brought him a keyboard that had a bit of dust on it. The keys were worn a little bit but it still worked.

Tyler walked out of that store with a big grin on his face. They started driving back to Carson’s apartment, picking up cups and more pizza on the way. They arrived, Tyler bringing up a few magical books and his nebulizer in a backpack while carrying the keyboard. Carson had the pizza. They walked into the apartment and they both flopped on couches opposite of eachother. They felt like they did a lot that day so they both ended up falling asleep for about two hours.

HLVRAI Oneshot: MVP

To my followers who are here for A Hat in Time fics fear not! I’m still working on Snowcon, a crossover oneshot, and planning for that Reader x oneshot! Just trying to get all of these out of my system so I can focus easier on those as hyperfixation is a bitch.

Dr. Coomer is a stronk man who deserves more recognition! Word count: 1426

Summary: Getting used to missing a hand was a struggle that left Gordon defenseless in the mess that was Black Mesa. It’s a good thing Dr. Coomer is always willing to help out!

“I’m gonna fucking kick Benrey’s ass.” Gordon huffed as he ducked and dodged the various bullets that were fired his way. “Fucking asshole-”

His complaints were cut off as he felt someone grab the back of his HEV suit and yank him down behind cover before one of the many soldiers could shoot him in the head. Bubby growled in annoyance, practically shoved the one handed man to the ground, and lept over him while shooting at the offending soldier.

“Rant about your hate boner for your boyfriend later and stay down!” The older scientist barked as he entered the fray.

“He’s not my boyfriend!” Gordon shouted back. “He’s-”

“Hello, Gordon!”

The one handed man yelped at the sudden voice and spun around to see Dr. Coomer crouched beside him, a friendly smile on his face and blood staining his fluffy hair.

A somewhat horrific sight that Gordon had long since gotten used to.

“Dr. Coomer! You’re looking, uh, l-lovely today!”

“Why thank you Gordon, but be careful to not say that too loud in case Bubby hears! He’s not fond of anyone flirting with me.” Dr. Coomer chuckled before spinning around and punching a soldier that had been sneaking up behind them. As the head exploded from the impact, blood and gore spraying into the air before staining the ground, Gordon scrambled to come up with a response.

“No, no, no-I was nOT flirting! Dr. Coomer you are a l-lovely man and-and have been an immense help to me, but-”

“Have no fear, Gordon! You are not the only one to go after this young, spring chick!” Dr. Coomer chuckled while running a hand through his fluffy hair, getting more blood tangled in it.

“Wh-I-wh-” At this point it sounded like Gordon was having a stroke as he tried to process everything that was being said, having completely forgotten about the battle that was slowly quieting down around them. “I-I just-okay, listen, I don’t know how we even GOT onto this topic but I-”

Once again he was cut off as the old scientist put a hand on his shoulder and pushed him down, out of the way of yet another bullet before a quick shot from Tommy took out the remaining soldier. All was calm, or as calm as it could get with the Science Team, as Bubby and Tommy regrouped with the others.

“Uh, M-Mr. Freeman? You okay?” The worried Tommy asked, oblivious to the blood that was currently smeared across his face. “Y-You didn’t seem to be paying attention to stuff. Is your arm s-still… bad?”

Gordon winced at the pain present in Tommy’s voice and placed his remaining hand on his shoulder, squeezing it in what he hoped was a reassuring manner. “Yeah, pain’s mostly gone-”

“B-But it’s turning green!” Tommy interrupted while quickly pointing at the not actually green stump. “All.. all that gross water must’ve made you super sick!”

“We can always cut the rest of it off.” Bubby suggested while the other three stared at him in mild concern and full blown horror. He then mimed a sawing motion with his gun to emphasize his point. “Gordon’s already been through it before and shit-”

“Not again!” Tommy yelped as he dropped his gun, crouched, and clasped his hands over his ears. “N-No! We’re n-not doing that to Mr. Freeman!”

“Alright! Alright! Don’t fucking ask me for help the next time you need it then!” Bubby grouched as he stormed off to look ahead and see if there were any other soldiers waiting for them.

Dr. Coomer glanced between his aggravated boyfriend, Tommy still panicking as he remained on the ground, and Gordon who looked like he was seconds away from passing out due to either stress or blood loss.

Definitely not a good situation to be in.

Letting out a worried sigh, the scientist rolled up his sleeves and decided to get to work. If anyone was going to carry the Science Team it would be him!

Literally!

Gordon let out a yelp as he felt an arm hit the back of his knees, resulting in him falling backwards into-

“Dr. Coomer?”

“Hello, Gordon!” The scientist chirped as he scooped the panicked man into his arms, bridal carry style. It was impressive how effortless and fluid he made the motion appear to be, and was a testament to how strong he was with more of his clones dead.

“I-I know you were strong but this… this is something else.” Gordon wheezed. “You-you sure you’re okay? I’m not like breaking your bones or anything? This suit is pretty heavy and stuff-”

“Relax, Gordon. My time spent practicing punches had led to excellent muscle growth!” Dr. Coomer cheerfully interrupted. “And I have plenty of experience in carrying Bubby around like this! You have no need to worry!”

“You… you’re really great, man. I owe you one for this.” The one handed man sniffled. “Is Tommy okay?”

“H-Huh?”

At the mention of his name, Tommy looked up and a smile crossed his face at the sight of Dr. Coomer carrying Gordon. “W-Wow! I… I didn’t think you were this strong, Dr. Coomer! Is Mr. Freeman okay?”

“Yup, holding up better now.” Gordon said, relief and embarrassment present in his voice. “We should get a move on before Bubby gets caught in another gun fight or something.”

And keep moving so we don’t get ambushed.

“You don’t need to worry about Bubby, Gordon! He can handle himself! But we do need to catch up before we get left behind…” And, after making sure that Tommy was back on his feet, the old scientist took off.

Gordon let out another yelp, god it was embarrassing how often he was doing that, and used his remaining hand to hold onto one of Dr. Coomer’s shoulders. “Whoa! Hey! Slow down before you trip or something!”

“I’m as graceful as a gazelle, Gordon!” Dr. Coomer exclaimed and, as though to punctuate his point, he lept over some rubble as Tommy ran along after them.

“Yeah? Well we gotta find more clones for you to kill, then.” Gordon muttered to himself as they quickly caught up to Bubby. “If you can do this much now, you’re gonna be tough as hell when we get the rest.”

“Gordon Fuckman, what the hell are you doing with Coomer?!” Bubby shouted as he stormed towards the pair, finger twitching on the trigger of his gun as he glared at the man in his boyfriend’s arms.

“Y-Y’know what? I think I like Fuckman more than Feetman.” Gordon muttered to himself as Dr. Coomer started laughing.

“Relax, Bubby! I’m just carrying Gordon so we don’t have to slow down!”

“Fine, but if you try to grab any ass I’m taking that other hand!” Bubby threatened. Gordon immediately started sputtering and flailing, while the other scientist chuckled some more. Tommy just looked on confused, not quite getting the point.

“Um, sh-should we keep moving? Mr. Freeman still doesn’t look too good…”

“Tommy’s got a point there. Shall we keep moving?”

“We can, as long as Fuckman there keeps his grubby ass hand to himself-”

“Ass hand?!”

“Mr. Freeman, is t-there any more soda? I’m kind of t-thirsty….”

Gordon was silent as he listened to the threats and mild complaints before turning his head to look at Dr. Coomer, taking in his bright smile.

“Hey, Dr. Coomer?”

“Yes, Gordon?”

“Did I ever tell you that you’re the MVP here?”

“No, but thank you!”

“... You know what that means?”

“Not at all!”

“FREEMAN STOP FUCKING AROUND WITH MY BOYFRIEND!”

“I AM NOT!”

As the group continued to bicker, two focused on the argument while the others paid it no mind as they progressed through Black Mesa, Gordon felt a chill roll down his spine and he shuddered before looking around.

Nothing but more rocks, somewhat broken buildings, and general debris.

“M-Mr. Freeman, you okay?” Gordon jolted at the sudden question, focusing on Tommy and instinctively nodding.

“Y-Yeah just, uh, cold or some shit.”

“You’ll have some shit to deal with if you spoon for body heat-”

“NO!”

Unseen by the Science Team, Benrey peered around the corner of one of the buildings further away, eyes narrowing at the sight of Gordon being carried around in Dr. Coomer’s arms.

He was not sure what to do about the strange sting of pain that ran through him as he continued to stare at those two, nor was he certain of what it meant, but he did know one thing.

Benrey did not like it one bit.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Forgot to put a concluding note here last time so I’m trying not to forget this time! I was immensely amused by the mental image of Dr. Coomer carrying Gordon around post hand loss and wanted to write something for it, with a bit of Benrey included of course. :>

I hope you all enjoyed reading!

I forgot the numbers I was gonna ask you! Cos my food was burning 😂 1, 2, 7, 20?

1. If you’re an author, how many WIPs do you currently have? (Be honest!)

Oh boy, here we go.

Take Me To Church - forever working on chapter 8

Literally Anything - still need to get Toki in the sack with somebody and then eventually get to the promised threesome

Lost in Japan - working on Melmord-to-Nathan chapter, more to follow

Dethkats - I think I might have another chapter partially written that I haven’t posted yet idk, but either way I’ve still gotta get it to the point where they turn back into humans and Charles wakes up in a massive cuddle pile and is just like… okay I suppose this is happening now

What Are We, Pickles? - I might retitle this at some point because it really only makes sense for the first chapter… but anyway there’s totes going to be a smutty Nathan/Charles/Pickles chapter for that someday

Long Schtory Schort - Needs to continue so Murderface can realize all his bandmates are gay and also all paired up except for Pickles so clearly he should make out with Pickles

Untitled Pickleface fic where Murderface is the last to realize that Pickles is trans (but everyone had assumed he already knew)

Untitled Secret Dating fic (still in prompt stage) - Murderface finds out about said secret dating and helps cover for them by acting over the top homophobic; still need to decide who the couple would be

Holiday Chuckles series - I’ve done a smutty meet cute on Christmas, booty call New Years… I guess Valentine’s Day hookup is next, probably followed by Pickles Celebrates The Shit Outta St Patrick’s Day

Pick Up - Needs to continue so Nathan can finish sorting out how he feels about Charles hitting on him and then, y’know, decide how to act on it

BANG! You’re Done - Next bit will be about Nathan becoming Dethklok’s temporary manager after Charles’ “death,” getting to know Toki for the first time and reconnecting with the rest of the guys again (except Magnus feels Threatened by this and is A Douche about it)

Good Metal - Gotta finish that MTL GO crossover where Crowley really wanted to meet Dethklok and maybe recognizes Charles as some minor demon playing hooky from Hell

Under The Sea - an unfinished mermen AU that I was co-writing with a friend back in 2009-2010 that I have permission to revamp and continue, and fully plan on doing so someday

Don’t Say No, You Can Do’s It - This maybe deserves a sequel where the two Scandigayvians figure their accidental relationship shit out without, y’know, hospitalizing themselves again

Untitled fake dating fic (still in prompt stage) - Pickles gets an invite to his ex Tony from SnB’s wedding and ropes Charles into being his plus one

Untitled Nathan/Charles/Pickles fic (still in prompt stage) - Charles and Pickles are a couple, and Nathan gradually works his way in too

Untitled Charles/Pickles fic (still in prompt stage) - The guys find some old secret lover pen pal letters in Pickles’ stuff and speculate about who might have written them, while Charles is half 😬 dont figure out it was me and half 😍 because he didn’t realize Pickles had kept them all these years

Untitled Pickles gives Murderface a Back Rub fic (still in prompt stage)

Untitled Total Landscaping AU (still in prompt stage)

And some more extremely unformed ideas that in no way resemble a specific story yet.

Animation Reviews: OK KO: Red Action 3: Grudgement Day

Whelp I said i’d do all three in one day and I MEANT IT. And I may do it again just to stay on schedule in the future, but for now i’m just proud and exausted to have gotten this done. And after a rather “eh it has some things but it’s mostly just there” episode” we’ve come to our last episode and my personal faviorite, Red Action 3: Grudgment day. Also as a quick note I forgot red was actually a major part of “I hope this thing flies” back in my first review, but I probably would’ve left it out as while the plot is her racing with Rad, it’s entirely a rad episode, and like plaza prom which I had to realize wasn’t important, isn’t really necessary. One last where we are in the series thing. We’re in season 3 and as I mentioned last time, RIGHT before the final episodes and one episode before the three part final arc and unrelated but beautiful epilogue that closes out the series. I didn’t go into my throughts on season 2 but it was good, the ending was just a really sloppy end to an otherwise good arc that i’ll get to. Season 3 is somehow even better, using it’s shorter run time to tie up loose ends and character arcs left and right and , after trying all series to do it, crossing over with Sonic the hedgehog, another thing for another time, and the final episodes, both the wrap up to the story arc “Let’s fight ot the end” and the wonderful where are they now epilouge “Thank you for watching the show”, are absolutley amazing and how you end a show.. and thankfully endings of this calibur became the trend this year given that same year star vs ended terribly and the bad taste is still in my mouth over that one but that’s a story for another bunch of reviews. The point is as I said the crew used the time wisely and wrapped up most ongoing character and story arcs that needed resolution. And given they spent two episodes on it the team decided to pull the pin on red and enid getting together, and solve one dangling issue the fans likely had all in one go. IT’s grudgment day under the cut.

We open with Rad and Red arguging and KO looking at them in a way that just screams:”Third mom, Rad, please stop fighting” Enid comes in and wonders why one of her two best friends and her girlfriend are fighting. She dosen’t use the term but given the kiss at the end of the episode, more on that when we get to it, the general way Enid acts about this and the way Red acts around her this ep.. their a couple at this point. I do wish they had an episode of them becoming offical, adressing Enid and Elodie.. bucnhes of other things but I concede that the crew was blindsighted by having a smaller season and had they you know NOT BEEN CANCELED FOR NO GOOD GOODAMN RESAON, we might have gotten more renid and more stories and a full on steven universe crossover with both sides. But I digress.. CN’s managment is terrible right now... but that’s not the reason for this article so we’re moving on. Anyways Enid wants to know why their so pissy when she arrives, and Red .. is in the right this time. Showing her growth while she still got heated with rad.

Rad did at least start it, as she simply came in to take enid jelly surfing and was kind enough to ask him to come along.. and KO implictly given he’s there and their buds now and all that. But when rad insults her again she quits the explaning and goes right back to arguing with him while Enid and KO look on awkwardly. Then Red decides to go into a mocking impression of rad, which is not NEARLY as mean as it could’ve been given the guy has canocially, had a super virus get worse because he refused to get rest something the villian that gave it to him was COUNTING on as part of his evil scheme, was left on the floor in pain over his cocoa being too hot, and once confused his 6-11 year old friend for a doppleganger despite having GIVEN said friend his nametag, though to be fair red’s own best friend also thought he was rad and gave him her number, so everyone was kind of dumb that day but still, the point is she has a LOT of ammo. In contrast Rad STARTS light saying she says words like Cowabunga (she only does once at the end of this ep and has not at any time).. before saying Enid deserves someone better and flinging her surfboard... which Crinkly Wrinkly jumps on and crashes into a wall because of course he does. Anyways Enid is offended at this and reveals rad’s been acting like a raving dickhead to Red anytime she shows up, which were this season 1 would be on brand but after 3 seasons of becoming a better person and an episode earlier this season where he rejected his dudebro friends once and for all, who by the way: Beefer and Mega Football Baby are the worst and I hate them and i’m greatful that their final apperance is rad realizing what a bad influence they’ve been and telling their asses off for their toxic masculinity. But I will however give OK KO credit as their SUPPOSED to be obnoxious, and the crew still dialed back hteir apperances to almost nothing when they realized it went horribly right, versus Rusty whose still mildly to massively annoying, but has yet to be fixed or removed from LIncoln’s crew, despite the show having a good track record for taking problematic characters and fixing them. And i’ve gotten entirely offf topic because all three of them piss me off so much, so let’s move on. Where were we.. ah yes, since Rad being a dickhead this consisently is now an exception not the rule, Enid rightfully demands to know why and Rad.. makes up two very petty, weak and obviously pulled out of his butt to try and cover the real reason up reasons for his actions: Red didn’t follow him back on Social Media, which is both a website and what the website is in this universe apparently which Is brilliant, and that she took the last bit of cake at prom... you know after he realized he was screwing it up and fixed it all with a homoerotic dance fight. Plaza Prom is amazing. When pressed because Rad fired his stupid friends, Rad hastily challenges red to a power battle, which I haven’t had to cover yet: Basically a hero can challenge another hero to a fight, usually for respect, to settle a grudge or who took the last bagle, and it’s a socially accepted thing called a power batttle. Really given it seems like KO’s world has not had a hero civil war, and the one time we’ve seen heroes on heroes outside of these things has been when POINT was acting shady as fuck and thus needed to be stopped, it seems like a resonable mesure, especially since most heroes just.. shrug off damage from battles and stuff after a bit. Unable to convince her girlfriend not to punch her best friend in the face, however much he deserves it, Red gives enid her belt with her time capusles inside, so they don’t go off mid fight and gives her an air kiss. Awww. Enid bemoans the fact this is happening for such dumb reasons when KO relaizes they can just use the belt to fix what once went wrong and end this petty fight before rad dies. First stop, the Bodega a few months ago, which KO proves both by the fact they have mean beans, which theys topped selling months ago and is one of the single best refrences this show did and it’s done a LOT, and the social media feed being from months and months ago, with Beefer bragging elodie beat him up. Ewwwwww.... I don’t wnat to kjnow what he’s into. Gah gotta scrub my brain. ONe brain scrub later Rad needs only one more follower to 100. I hear when you get 100 this happens.

youtube

Rad asks for a follow for follow from Red, who says she dosen’t have her phone. Enid is sure she’s lying, which she is, and follows Rad for her. Also I love rad’s file photo

Seriously they use this any time they need a picture of him. It’s one of the series best runners and is only topped by homer simpsons various terrible ones and this gravity falls masterpiece as being the best stock photo used for a character.

I will use this any time I have an excuse to and I have no shame about that. Anyways they go back but

As things have only gotten more heated at the power battle, so they try the prom to see if that’ll help. Cue PROM. Seriously why they never did a second Plaza Prom episode is really beyond me. Lot of potetinal with that concept.. plus I like episodes that put tons of cast, main and supporting, in one event together, ever since venture bros. It’s always a fun time. Anyways, Enid wants to stop a paradox but KO has already interacted with his past self.. which is the KO enid’s talking to and a great gag. So the two seeing Rad and Red both about to go for the cake decide to pull a destraction: Enid goes over and talks to Red to hold her off and get the cake to rad, while KO does what any sane person would do: Jumps onto Rad’s face while yelling rad I love you, and Rad is clearly more annoyed he’s on his face and this has very obviously happened before. .... I miss this show. Anyway after giving the explination that she’s a shadow clone to explain why her past self is still up there DJing, she offers to dance and the two have a good cute time until enid gets the cake into rad’s mouth and bolts.. and now we get the thing I hinted at earlier. Red talks to the other Alley Teens about it, and notes that while she dosen’t know Enid she kinda likes her.. then backpedals as the teens make faces but are clearly not fooled by they all look really creepy especially Gregg.

WHelp I have ny nightamres for tonight. But yeah this is implied to be what got Red to ask her out in the first place. Time travel is weird and inconsietent. This does give me a chance to adress the fact that the alley teens.. sorta stopped beiing a thing eventually. I mean their stillf riends as of the season 2 openoer but red and drupe show up for their own eps or supportingroles while Gregg just kinda vanishes, poor person. That being said given this interaction and how close they were I DO think their still friends; I mean gregg and drupe was confirmed by the flash forward as they visit rad’s cafe, but Red would still be their friend, they just all likely have more stuff to do as they grow older: by the end of season 2 Drupe has a buisness and gregg is probably in college. But I expect Drupe would be Red’s best woman at her wedding. I mean gregg would probably be her best person but still. Anyways they return to the present again and.

Yeah that. Their now battling in cars and Enid decides to cut the bullshit and just ask Rad why he’s pissed at Red, asking Red to pause the fight, which she agrees to. KO and Enid throw rad int he back of his van tied up and ask him to be honest about why he’s so pissed off. After some dithering he says he lo.. lo.. and instead of saying he loves enid, thank god i’m so sick of love triangles, may they die in a fire, like the episode hinted at it’s a swerve. and unlike a vince russo swerve which ends in A “Buff Bagwell’s mother on a forklift match”.. no really

This is actually a great one: Rad’s fully moved on and I like that, evne if the finale does leave it vauge if those bodegamen at the end are theirs or not, given Rad’s her best friend by the end and she and red would need a surrogate, it’s not a huge stretch to say Rad sperm donored for them and is still a beloved uncle and figure in their lives. Anyways the point is Rad’s real beef is.. suprisingly sweet. Turns out Rad’s still pissed at the whole “Teens humilating, burning and spanking” ko thing and Red posting it online. Which is likely to adress the fact they.. never adressed that and was a good call and a good way to show rad’s growth: he’s not jealous , he’s not mad she’s taking up enid’s time, he’s mad that his best friend is dating someone who beat up his other best friend for just trying to help them then put it online for a cruel laugh. Granted Drupe did the same thing and he not only danced with her but is on good terms with her to this day, but odds are given they see her more and she’s in fact the designer for their mission outfits in season 3, she probably apologized off screen while Red figured KO forgiving her was good enough and just wanted to forget it, running away from things as usual. IT speaks to the diffrence in their personality: Red runs hot is stubborn and takes time to admit she’s wrong, Drupe is very chill and as the series goes on very nice, and probably wanted to get it out of the way asap given she frequents the bodega more often, either in the background or foreground. Anyways after KO reveals he actually enjoys the video as a treasured memory of when he first met the alley teens, disturbing his friends, seriously this kid needed to remerge with his edgelord side yikes, Enid gives rad a headpat and kudos for being normal and Enid decides to take all of them to go fix this. Back in the past we’re back at the bullying and before past red can post, present red explains she should stop and after clarfying this isn’t an end of the world situation, not an unfair assumption given you know time traveler, she reveals it’s for someone unimportant.. but whose important to someone they care about, and that what they were doing was a terrible thing they’ll be ashamed of anyway. It’s a good scene that shows how far red’s come: from pushing everyone but two people awaya nd treating most like garbage in a vain attempt to avoid being who she used to be, to accepting it, finding love, and becoming friends with someone she hurt and accepting she hurt him. Rad is also clearly moved seeing that Enid did indeed choose wisely. Back in the present.

... NO not this time. No instead red and rad are pals, talking about how shredded they are and what not, and while Enid finds it annoying, understandably, she’s glad their not trying to kill each other and dosen’t have to buy Rad’s gravestone or visit her girlfriend in prison. In the alterted timeline, which their also aware of by rad’s comment, time travel just go with it, they were already planning on going jelly surfing and invite enid, and implictly ko along.

So we end on our main trio and Red jelly surfing, Enid and Red sharing a board before wiping out, laughing about it and then, as if you hadn’t already seen the header but fuck it.

Yup. The subtext just became.. text. Awww. In case you were wondering, I do like them as a couple, especially after this quintology, as it’s made me realize just hwo much they click and how much chemistry they have, and by this point their just adorable, their drama gone and they can just be happy and gay together. And that’s something cartoons are doing more of and tha’ts wonderful and it’s wonderful that, with all else he had to wrap up, Ian felt confirming the gay couples lasted was extremley important, as two others are shown married in the finale. And we’ll get to the finale more in a bit, but first Rad floats by with an “I support this”, to approving smiles, and enid thinking he’s a weirdo. Also I love the meta text of having a character voiced by the shows creator say that. KO however is sad that the video is gone but ENid says the memories will last. Rad is understandably not sad about it suggests they make new ones and we end on our quintent taking a selfie together. THE END. Before final thoughts, this wouldn’t however be the last we saw of them. The finale has a bit more as it flashes forwards a bit: the relevant part is one shows Enid take over KO’s mom Carol’s dojo. with red, the two kissing again and alllooking over some supsciously familiar kids who look supsciously like the hue troop, but are probably there great grandparents. While Red dosent’ show up again after that, and could’ve gone back to the future eventuallyf or all we know, I like to think she stayed, and that as noted above, she and enid had kids together with Rad’s help given the similar looking kids we see running the bodega... which admitely was kept vauge by Ian on purpose so fans could draw their own inclusion so that’s the one i’m drawing; rad is still there for them aand still family to them, but isn’t with Enid in a romantic sense, if you think diffrently that’s fine. But My ending is these two crazy kids worked it out and are now happy ever after. and that ain’t bad. Final Thoughts: A fantastic episode with TONS of great jokes, call backs and a great resolution , showing off Rad and Red’s character development greatly,f ixing a possible plot hole and giving fans the kiss that many of them had wanted for some time. ONe of the series best I can’t gush enough about it but I shall stop for your benifit. If you liked this review, subscribe for more, check out the backlog via the convient pages on my blog, and shoot me an ask, wether it’s to suggst an episode or just to ask me about my opinons or yell about them or ask what I think about certain shows or what i’ll cover. And until next time, later days.
