#he's a comic relief when he talks all the time and does stupid things and gets in trouble not when he's pushed aside
Note
For an art request can you please draw one of your headcanons?
I’m not entirely sure if this would be considered a headcanon or not but I like the thought that Aizawa is more emotionally open around Mic and that he values him a lot.
[Long wall of text of my thoughts and opinions incoming]
Like, I understand the comedy aspect of Aizawa being somewhat of a dick towards Mic seeing as that is how their dynamic is often portrayed as in the show, i.e. Aizawa being annoyed/putting up with Mic’s shenanigans. Their relationship does get more expanded upon in the Hospital raid arc but even then, Aizawa being more of a fan-favourite because, among other things, he’s part of the main cast gets more fleshed out than Mic despite Oboro having been both of their friend. In the hospital after the raid, Aizawa shows a certain degree of dismissiveness of Mic’s feelings, which yes, I can understand may be because he didn’t want to talk about it and that was his way of coping, but remember that they are alone and it has been shown that he is often more open with his feelings and opinions when it’s just the two of them, not to mention that Mic is now his only surviving friend from back in their days at U.A. At least maybe show the audience Aizawa having some kind of emotional reaction to the fact that Midnight, a close friend of theirs, who has impacted his life a lot, ex. with sending in an application to U.A, has just died.
And like I said, I do understand and actually like the more teasing side of their relationship but what I don’t like is when it’s just Aizawa treating Mic poorly and Mic is depicted as the stupid comic relief when his character is a lot more nuanced.
As previously mentioned, however, Mic is just a side character which means the show and the creator won’t bother making him more complex than necessary (often to further Aizawa’s story) which means that the fanbase who don’t think too much about him as a character will just staple him as the comic relief (which I want to make clear is totally fine because we all have characters we focus on more than others, be it a comfort character or simply just caring for one character more than another).
What I don’t like is when it’s clear that someone favours Aizawa more than Mic in the Erasermic relationship and portrays Mic as “inferior” to Aizawa and bases his character off of his stereotypes (ex. being loud all the time and acting immature) and won’t look past that. Fortunately, I rarely stumble upon this sort of interpretation and I want to once again make it clear that it’s fine if you like one character more in a ship, my point is that I personally dislike when the other character in the relationship isn’t given at least some of that focus and is more like an accessory than anything.
For me with the Erasermic dynamic, I like when a clear balance is shown. I personally am a big fan of Mic and I like breaking his character down to its bare bones and giving him more depth than the source material does…so basically making my own headcanons about him lol. But I also like Aizawa a lot and I guess my guilty pleasure is portraying them in a healthy and equal companionship where Mic isn’t the only one who openly shows his appreciation.
So, uh, yeah. That was a lot lol. Apologies for the long wait, I had an exam a few days ago and finally had some free time to work on the request. I hope the drawing is sufficient and correlates to the wall of text above.
On another note, here’s an extra little headcanon of these two being two of the smartest characters in the show, yet not hesitating to egg each other on when it comes to dumb ideas (I drew this in like 5 seconds and barely put any effort into it lol)

More s/o headcannons because I'm a sad little man who can't sleep
fluff mostly, romantic, canon typical violence, maybe death?
Starscream
Stupid little man (affectionate)
He literally doesn't get his own emotions. if it's not anger or hatred towards Megatron, what is it?
you're.. you're gonna have your hands full.
ESPECIALLY if you happen to be poly and happen to be with Bee or the Elite Trine or (gods forbid) Skyfire. because all those possibilities are just chaos incarnate
Okay so maybe Skyfire or Thundercracker might (might) be able to keep him in check.. no. no that's a lie. RIP (rest in piss) you i guess, have fun.
you're gonna have to save his aft more then once.
not in battles, he's okay with weapons, but talking him out of things? yeah..
do NOT let him try to negotiate. you'll just end up in deeper shit.
even if you can't negotiate, you'll do better then him
he's a big cuddler, but he also likes receiving gifts or giving them
you can't tell me he doesn't behave like a bird sometimes.
like
gifting rocks and sticks and shiny things he finds as presents
he deserved so much better then he got
do NOT raise your hand or voice at him if it can be helped
you'll have to patch him up after Megatron takes out his anger, please be gentle and listen and give plenty of cuddles after
he's not innocent by any means, he KNOWS he's a fucking menace. he does it on purpose.
he's also a war criminal so..
yeah
he's a gift giving (giving) or physical touch (receiving) live language :)
Bumblebee
You'll likely still have your hands full
he has good intentions, he's just rly fucking reckless
i hope you have ibuprofen, you'll both need it.
you for headaches from how many times Bee almost gets himself killed and him for scraped knees and shit
He's totally a drama queen, but only when it's funny
he tried to be the comic relief because he was forced into that role growing up and was never taken seriously, please listen to him and show him it's okay to not be the 'funny one'
gods forbid you both have similar trauma, that'll just be hell and create a loop of 1) him trying to help you by being funny 2) you stoping him and 3) trying to be funny for his sake until he stops you, and then it repeats with him trying to be funny to cheer you up again
Sometimes it really is funny, sometimes it's a defense mechanism.
after all, it's hard to yell at someone when they crack a joke that makes you giggle, he knows this from experience
His love language is totally words of affirmation, both giving and receiving.
he tried his best to behave and be careful, but sometimes he gets into sticky situations, please be patient
Ratchet
he's.. he's something that's for sure
he needs to be told to rest. seriously.
he'll be a hypocrite about sleep, instructing everyone to get some sleep and take breaks but then work for 16 hours straight.
literally force this man into bed please.
he tries not to worry you, but often fails (really often-)
PLEASE make him relax. a bath, a nap, a movie, SOMETHING
he adores you, but he tries not to display any PDA
the farthest he'll go is a quick peck when everyone is distracted
He's worried the cons will take you for bait if he shows PDA
SO. MANY. SNIDE. REMARKS.
/pos
His love language is quality time!
just sit in the medbay while he works. even if you're "in the way" (usually lies so he can pick you up, human or bot alike)
he appreciates the company :)
he's worried about everyone, like a mom with accident prone kids
except all those kids are (mostly) adults and can (mostly) take care of themselves
PLEASE try to stay out of trouble, it'll help lower his stress to know you're okay <3
Arcee
she has a lot of trouble with relationships, please be patient
another anti-PDA bot
except hers is mostly because she's worried that she'll lose you to the cons death-wise, not kidnapping or bait
please please please make sure to stay away from cons and reassure her you're both going to be okay
She might have some days where dysphoria hits hard, please make sure she knows you support and love her no matter what
She supports you and you better support her back
her love language is gift giving (giving) and words of affirmation (receiving)
shiny rocks, food/fuel, small objects that remind her of you, anything is fair game
please please giver her physical touch, she loves receiving physical touch!
cuddles and kisses >>>
Knock Out
DRAMA KING
He can take care of himself, or so he swears
he is a little crazy, and not in the fun way.
he's got something going on in that noggin of his, but insists he's fine
please just hug him and reassure him you're both okay
He loves receiving gifts or quality time, and giving physical touch or quality time
he cares so much about you, but can't really figure out how to show you
he'll touch up your paint/mess with your hair, carry you around if he can, bring you energon, heal you first after battles or scraps with other cons
he doesn't like to say he lives you out loud, sorry :(
but he does love you! he's just scared to admit it out loud
Please please please get him to sit out a race and take care of himself
he uses street racing to get his adrenaline going and to distract himself, please get him to add some other distractions as well!
maybe movies or tinkering or something will help?
maybe not, he's got a speed demon, but maybe!
Soundwave
y'know how most of these have been make them take care of thrmself?
other way around.
look man, he was a dad to the cassettes for YEARS, he knows when shits wrong and usually he knows how to fix it
if not, he has the internet in his head, he'll be fine
He's probably the best about taking care of himself, but he does refuse to take breaks from work sometimes or he works late, please help?
he's gonna baby you so much-
like, making sure you're taking care of yourself and that you're okay
If the cassettes like you, he likes you
his cassettes go before everyone else, including you
you're a close second though, it's just dad things
it's likely the cassettes will see you as a parental figure, if not right away then later
Please help this man out with the kids, he has like 8 of them and he works a lot of the time-
Shockwave
So this can go one of two ways, he can be some evil genius mastermind who barely pays attention to anything but his job, or he can be a sweet dude who's just doing what he think is right.
since we only ever see him from the autobots pov or their allies I'm going with the second
Please make sure he gets enough sleep. he won't do it on his own. if you both have insomnia or just can't then fuck
you'll both be each others bedtime timer in a way?
PLEASE GET HIM SOME LEGOS /SRS
I feel like he would LOVE building Lego sets
He's probably got a little cabin fever, he's been on Cybertron for millenia, but he also refuses to leave base
please take him on a field trip or something-
he's totally a words of affirmation dude <3
he can take care of himself, but only barely-
he's got keeping everything running under control, it's just kinda a messy way of doing it.
controlled chaos type of guy!
Skywarp
Oh. my. gods.
you thought you had your hands full with Scream or Bee?
no.
Skywarp, a well known prankster that can teleport, you're absolutely fucked
He's def gonna pull a bunch or harmless pranks on you, u less you explicitly ask him to stop
He <3
He totally is a physical touch kinda dude, he MUST be toughing you at all times.
Working? sit back to back or hold hands. He's out in a mission? he has a chain necklace with a item from you on it that he clutches whenever he can. Off work and walking around? holding hands, piggy back rides (he's usually the one that wants the piggy back ride, but it goes either way) About to fall asleep? cuddles and sleepy kisses.
THE biggest sweetheart
He'll also bring little gifts, but he's more specific in some aspects. If a rock isn't pretty enough he wont bring it, even if you tell him you love everything he brings and appreciate anything from him
he wants everything to be perfect for you
He likely has ADHD, please make sure he takes his meds
Please kiss his forehead, it's a weak spot for him. a quick peck will have him shutting up and melting on the spot. Sometimes he'll trail after you like a lovedrunk puppy <3
Thundercracker
There's not much I can say about him that won't do him justice
He's smart, but not the smartest
like.. he's good with social stuff and is shit at math (Me too)
the most likely to get jealous or be protective
If someone tries to flirt with you, he'll stand behind you all puffed up and scary looking
The person usually leaves after that, and when you turn around he's either
A. still being menacing and staring after that person with a death glare, just hug him and he'll deflate
or B. he's already calm and just has, like, drinks or something and a smile
he's another words of affirmation person, he loves giving or receiving

I think we need to take a second to talk about the fact that Guillermo is such good plus size representation. I cannot properly express the joy I feel when I turn on the show every week and see him. Like I know plus size characters aren’t entirely uncommon these days, but even now in 2022, it’s rare for them to be such a big part of the narrative or to be actually well written people or get a satisfying arc that has nothing to do with their appearance.
And Guillermo does that!! As a heavy person myself, I can’t tell you how many pieces of media I’ve seen where everyone is conventionally attractive and thin (a lot of the other WWDITS characters also don’t fit in with that, but that’s a post for another time) and so whenever I see someone with a body type similar to mine as a central character it makes me immeasurably happy (: Here are some of the things about Guillermo I think are well done in regards to him being plus size:
-Even though he’s belittled and made fun of a lot, nobody ever goes after him for his weight or appearance when in other shows that would be the punchline of a lot of the jokes
-Going along with that, nobody ever vilifies him for his weight or acts like it’s a bad thing. The other characters don’t tie his value to it, and no one really comments on it at all (which is a good thing in my book!!)
-He’s not portrayed as bumbling or stupid!! Oftentimes fat characters are there just for comic relief and that often involves them being clumsy, but that’s not the case here
-He’s also not portrayed as slovenly or gross, which is another common trait
-Nobody ever tells him that he can’t do something because of his weight
-He’s shown as desirable!!! This one in particular is a big deal because it’s very common (even for well written fat characters) to not have anyone think they’re attractive or to not have any romantic prospects but they completely subverted that by having several people actively be attracted to him (The Guide, Nandor, Freddie, and now Marwa). Obviously his arc isn’t romance-centric, but I think the inclusion of this is something that’s really important for people to see!
Guillermo is very well written overall, but the way he’s portrayed as a plus size person is especially important to me, and it’s something I wish I saw people talking about more often!!

want
coda fic for 6x07 Cursed a.k.a. the episode where we all heard way too much about buck’s baby batter (blame @somaybeamystery for that one). i had a lot of feelings about that episode and the way they handled it--mostly it being for comic relief--so here’s a more serious, introspective look at buck’s donation arc, and what i hope happened after 6x07
warnings for infertility references and references to the buckleys/daniel
“What’s with the sand?” Buck sweeps a hand toward the light dusting of sand Eddie’s created by taking off his shoes on Buck’s welcome mat.
“Ah, shit, sorry.”
Buck rolls his eyes. “I own a vacuum cleaner, don’t worry.”
Eddie elects to ignore their usual argument over Buck’s stupid-smart vacuum cleaner and answer the question anyway. “I just dropped Chris at Andrew’s house for a sleepover and didn’t have time to change after his surfing lesson.”
“Is Andrew the one with the ridiculous video game set-up?”
Eddie smiles but shakes his head. “No, that’s Ricky. Andrew’s the one with the gerbils.”
“Ricky gerbils, got it.” Buck nods slowly and goes silent, continuing to nod at nothing slower and slower until Eddie’s nearly forgotten why he’s nodding at all. He puts the six pack he brought down on the counter and the sound makes Buck snap his head back up, eyes refocusing on Eddie rather than somewhere in the distance.
Eddie lifts his eyebrows. “You good?”
“Yeah,” Buck says, belated. “Yeah, yeah. I’m fine.”
Eddie can tell by the way Buck’s jaw twitches that he’s worrying the inside of his lip. He’s been doing it so often lately that he even refused Eddie’s tomatoes over lunch during their last shift—he didn’t say it, but Eddie knows it’s because he’s broken the skin and the acidity of the tomatoes would sting.
“What do I do about it?” Eddie asked Frank, during their last session.
“What do you want to do about it?” Frank replied, infuriating as always.
“Ask him what’s wrong.” Eddie shook his head. “But if he wanted to talk about it, he would.”
“Then you have to choose,” Frank said sensibly. “Either don’t ask and stop worrying about it until he brings it up, or ask and deal with the consequences.”
Eddie hates when Frank doesn’t give him an easy answer. Not that Frank’s ever given him an easy answer. Honestly, Eddie hates almost everything about therapy, except the getting better part.
Eddie takes a deep breath. “You tell me to shut up, I’ll shut up and we’ll drink and watch the game and I won’t say another word about it,” Eddie says, and almost doesn’t continue when Buck looks at him with his big dumb eyes, so lost Eddie wants to do something stupid like invite him home or kiss his freaking forehead. “But I know there’s something wrong, and if you want to talk about it, I want to listen.”
Buck stares at him for several long seconds. Yeah, Eddie’s surprised with himself, too.
“I, uh.” Buck ducks his chin, looking down at his kitchen counter. He has both hands curled around the edge of it, his fingers spread wide, the skin going stark white with the pressure he puts on them. “I had my donation appointment today.”
Eddie’s face does something drastic at that, but he has an extra second before Buck looks up to school his expression into something neutral and open.
“Oh?” Eddie says, because he’s not sure what else to fucking say and it works well enough for Frank when he’s trying to get Eddie to keep talking.
But Eddie must not have done it right because Buck looks back down at the counter and nods again, just saying, “Yeah. Yeah.”
“So.” Eddie tries to think of the appropriate thing to say when your best friend (and the guy that several therapy sessions would indicate you’re stupidly in love with) tells you he’s donated his sperm to a couple you’ve never met. “So, uh. It’s all done, then?”
Buck’s shoulders tense as he presses even more weight into his hands. Fuck. Eddie probably should’ve just gone with “congrats.”
“It’s not,” Buck says without looking up. Eddie winces. He didn’t know about this whole thing until yesterday, but if he did, he might’ve seen this coming. It would be hard for anyone to father a child and then just not be involved in the kid’s life, let alone Buck, who clings to everything in his life like it’s going to be taken away if he loosens his grip. Eddie’s pretty sure that’s why he eats the way he does—like someone will take away the plate if he doesn’t finish fast enough. Knowing there’s a kid out there with a part of him in them but not being allowed to see them, raise them, love them—Eddie could’ve guessed that would kill Buck.
But it’s not Buck’s kid.
“It is over,” Eddie says as gently as he can manage. “You did your part, and now it’s over.”
“No, I didn’t—” Buck’s jaw clenches and releases. “I rescheduled.”
“Second thoughts?” Eddie asks, trying not to sound hopeful. If he knew the couple, he might feel a pang of sympathy for their situation, but he only cares about Buck, so he can’t manage anything but relief.
Buck shakes his head abruptly and Eddie’s relief fizzles in his chest. “No, no—not—not like that.”
“The moon wasn’t in the right position, then?” Eddie tries for a smile and grins when he gets one, accompanied by a soft huff of laughter and the slight loosening of Buck’s shoulders.
“No.” Buck glances up, smile still playing at his lips. “Not anything like that.”
“Then why reschedule?”
Buck sighs deeply, his shoulders falling further. “When Connor and Camryn asked me, I did all this research.” He gestures aimlessly with one hand as he speaks. “What to eat, how much to exercise, how involved people tend to be, how donor-born people feel about the whole thing. I wanted to do it right, you know?”
Eddie nods, smiling faintly. He’d expect nothing less from Buck.
“Well, uh.” Buck rubs at the back of his neck with his gesturing hand. “One thing they recommended was to abstain from, uh. Giving your own sample. Before the appointment.”
Eddie nods in a totally casual and not incredibly controlled way because he’s a normal friend that’s not going to be weird about his best friend’s ejaculations. Mhmm.
“Well. I was supposed to have my appointment a month ago. But stuff kept getting in the way. The tech fainted, the power went out.” Buck gestures dismissively. “All this stuff.”
“So it’s been a month since…?”
Buck smiles tightly. “Yup.”
“So you’re…”
“Pretty pent-up, yeah.”
“Ah.” Eddie imagines a small box with a lid and puts the thoughts and feelings he has about this information into that box, then puts that box into another box, and repeats that process until he can take a deep breath without wheezing. It’s a neat little trick he learned when he was a kid. He calls it the box method. Frank calls it repression. “So, how does rescheduling help with that?”
Buck doesn’t answer for long enough that Eddie considers just offering to turn on the game, but the little wrinkle between Buck’s eyebrows keeps Eddie from speaking. Finally, he says quietly, “My Jeep broke down on the way to the appointment. Between the pressure of doing it for Connor and Camryn and the whole thing at the station yesterday, and the frustration of saving up for so long, I just. Wanted to get it over with. So I ran. I ran through the streets, almost knocking people over, got there with four minutes to spare, and the nurse gave me a cup and a magazine and left me alone in the room and I just.”
Buck screws his mouth to the side.
“I was sitting there. Sweaty, breathing hard, looking at this cup. And it just—didn’t feel right. It didn’t feel—I wasn’t—I forgot. With all the secrecy and special diets and whatever, I forgot why I was doing it in the first place.”
“Why are you doing it?” If Eddie were Frank, he wouldn’t have asked. But Eddie’s not an impartial party, he’s half in love with his best friend and he has no fucking clue why he’s agreed to this whole thing, and he just really wants to know.
The tension in Buck’s face releases slowly until he’s got a faint smile sitting on his lips, eyes firmly on his kitchen counter. “It’s awkward, unbelievably awkward, to ask someone for their sperm. The whole thing—wine and dining me, explaining to someone you haven’t seen in years this seriously intimate thing, talking about sperm count and donation appointments. Most people, you get pregnant, it’s easy. No awkward conversations, no third parties. This whole thing is awkward and stressful and takes five times as much work.” Buck looks up, meeting Eddie’s eyes. “Even if I wasn’t sure they’d be awesome parents, and even though I don’t know if I’m going to deal with the whole “having a kid without being a parent” thing well, I’d still do it. Because I know without a doubt that they want this kid more than anything in the world, and this kid is going to grow up knowing that.”
Just like that, Eddie gets it. This is probably the furthest thing you can get from having a kid for spare parts. That comprehension must be evident in his face because Buck looks away again. Clears his throat.
“I know it’s dumb,” he says, self-deprecating and minimizing, and Eddie could just shake him and yell you matter, you asshole, but he doesn’t. He thinks Frank would be proud, though, both for having the thought and restraining himself. “But I was sitting there in that room and I knew that if I donated in that moment, it wouldn’t be because I wanted this kid for Connor and Camryn, it would be because I was frustrated and stressed. So I rescheduled.” Buck worries at the inside of his lip for a long moment before adding, “Every part of this kid’s existence should be because they’re wanted.”
Eddie loves him. It surges in him at random moments, overwhelming and sweet. It’s happened more and more often since he’s been working with Frank. He’s never said it aloud, but he thinks dealing with all his other shit has left more room in him for love. Different flavors of it—pride and joy when Christopher talks about his newest science project, contentment and warmth when he’s squished between Hen and Chim on the firehouse couch, delight and surprise when he listens to his dad’s misadventures in retirement. Buck’s somehow all of those flavors in one bite, bursting across Eddie’s tongue like a well-executed recipe.
“I didn’t think I could feel like that anymore,” Eddie told Frank once, stilted and embarrassed and probably too honest, but pleased anyway.
Sometimes it hurts. Hurts with how big it feels, hurts with how much it is, hurts because this person he loves so much it’s stupid doesn’t see how much he’s loved—or how he should be loved. All the shit Buck’s been through with his parents and his near-deaths and his unlucky love life and he’s still so fucking kind. Reckless and impulsive and self-destructive to the point that he blows up everything within the blast radius, sure. But still so unrelentingly kind.
“It’s not dumb,” Eddie finally manages to say through all the cresting emotions in his chest. Buck looks at him, surprised, wide-eyed. “I don’t think it’s dumb at all.”
Buck cracks a smile, the one Christopher pilfered from him, the one Eddie gets when he relents to “five more minutes” of video games. A smile of victory and surprise. A smile of gratitude.
“Thanks, Eddie.”
Too honest, Eddie says, “Anytime.”
Eddie only lets Christopher have another five minutes half of the time he asks for it, but Buck? Eddie would choose that smile on Buck’s face over almost anything else.

If you don’t mind tho, would you have any clue where I could ask about this talk of the LU fandom/Jojo going out of line? I’m oblivious to whatever happened and I’m curious
it's a bit of a complicated and long story, but some of it has to do with fans in general just being rly pissy about characterizations. i'm not pointing any fingers or listing any names bc it's not a One Person kinda problem, and some people don't even notice/see the issue and don't think it's an issue at all. in the grand scheme of things, this first issue isn't rly that big of a deal
(this might get long, and might bring up some anxieties for people, so this break is for anybody who wants to avoid mentions of fandom discourse, including past belittlement of furries, otherkin, and systems. stay safe)
reminder: this is just me clarifying info bc somebody asked! i am not trying to dredge up old mistakes
^ some of the things im talkin about are like . people babying wind. people turning wars into a comic-relief character that only knows how to creep girls out. people turning twilight into an emo cowboy that constantly cries about his girlfriend that's now in another realm or whatever. people simplifying wild into a crazy arsonist who doesn't seem to have a brain. people taking the "bitter" part of legend and exaggerating it So much that he's literally just an asshole to everybody all the time for NO reason other than that "he's the bitchy one"
personally this isn't nearly as annoying to me as some others find it. but i think the Bigger one, for me at least, is jojo herself
in this post, jojo makes fun of furries and otherkin, which i do not agree with. i don't have a problem w jojo not wanting twi to be "furry-like" but she drew the furry purposefully disgusting and stupid-looking to make fun of them. i don't know much about otherkin, but i know it's wrong to make fun of other people, especially when they aren't hurting anybody <3
and in this post, while explaining four's characterization in the comic, jojo put the word system in air quotes, as if to suggest there's something wrong with systems or that they don't exist or something. that stirred up quite a lot of suspicion and doubt in the fandom, and many systems obviously did not like that. i am not a system, so that's all i'll put here—a lot of systems posted their own takes on it when it happened
jojo has since edited both the tumblr post and the insta post to not have the word system in quotes. she explained herself and apologized here and here (this specific one is, i Believe, referring to past mistakes such as the ones above), but some people still are a bit iffy on that whole debacle (me included)
there might be more, but that's everything that i personally know of as to why the fandom has sorta gone bad. this next reason (sorta two reasons) is a personal thing and i don't rly hold it against jojo herself:
silly reason: i just like familial bonds and Close relationships in fiction, and lu does not cover that. they call each other "brother" from time to time but that's not enough dammit i want them to cuddle and i want time to be the father figure and i want them to live in a nice ranch house together happily ever after OKAY!!!! /silly
a more serious reason: linkshipping
i DO NOT agree with people belittling others for posting linkshipping, and this happens in lu All The Time and it's appalling. im not gonna get into the whole "but it's against her rules" thing bc i have some conflicted feelings abt that whole topic and this will get ridiculously long if i prattle abt that, but . people r getting bullied. people r getting singled out and Called Out and hated on and, in extreme cases, Driven Off The Platform bc they posted two silly little fictional men kissing. that's inexcusable to me
it's a bit more complicated than that, but i am of the simple opinion that u should Never police how other people have fun, and this is all fictional and we should redirect our collective hatred toward Real World Problems instead of wasting our time on arguing about whether or not these fictional elves should kiss <3
if i do make a new au and get away from this fandom, i hope to provide a safe space for Everybody, including linkshippers
#qktalks#barnabyboppins#apologies for the long post—i wanted to be thorough#again; this is not me dredging up past mistakes of jojo's or me trying to start discourse!#i am simply here to educate#if i made a mistake somewhere pls tell me!

I think I have M in another ask so Imma skip that one rn
A: How long did it take for them to get together?/L: When did they first start having feelings for each other?/B: Who asked who out? Who caused the first kiss? Who proposes? (Lumping these together because i sort of just started writing oops)
Things just sort of happened, honestly. Neither of them could pinpoint an exact time that they started having feelings for one another. It was one of those things that just sort of evolved. The thing you have to realize is that I just enjoy drawing silly comics more than I do drawing closer to Doe's actual personality because a whole lot of it is an *act*. Like sure, he's silly, and he's a nice guy, but he actively chooses to be those things. Because the world is kinda dark, isn't it? Kinda gloomy. And at the end of the day you're just a drop in the bucket of everyone's life, right?
So maybe their feelings developed when sitting on a rooftop bored and banished to the colonies again when Darcy asked Doe if it ever got to him, all this *acting*. Because he noticed. He absolutely did, he'd been the same way in college. Acting nice, like things mattered and he wasn't bored all the time with everything. And he got so sick of it. If nothing mattered why not have fun? Why not do what you want?
And maybe feelings developed when Doe asked him what he meant...because even if he *is* acting, even if nothing really matters...why not be kind? Why not let people think he's stupid if it helps someone at the end of the day? Maybe someday it will matter, just a bit. If not the world then it helps a person. And a person is a world. Each one of them.
And maybe that answer pierced a bit of the cynic's heart. Maybe a little.
And maybe they each found someone who understood the world the same, even if they had different opinions on it. And maybe that's a bit of a relief. And maybe understanding is the first step towards love.
As for who initiated things, they just happen, don't they? Naturally? No one asked the other out, they just started going places together, sitting at a table and sharing coffee. Playing cards, having conversations over days and weeks and they might as well just live together, right? Make things easier. Put things on paper because neither of them is really sure that anyone actually knows what they are (and neither do they if they're being honest. But it's love, they know it's love) so they might as well call it *something*. And maybe the roof of the Neath would fall in, maybe the sun would shine, so it might as well be *now* right? Might as well. Even if neither of them thought it would all end. Not really. It was silly, too silly. But it was an excuse. And now they have something to call each other, alone or in public. Something that doesn't quite fit what they are, but fits it perfectly all the same.
The Kiss as they don't refer to it as, was Doe. Not drunk. Not even pretending to be. Something he'd thought about for a long while. Considered. Not really planned, just something he realized he wanted. Something he knew Darcy wouldn't initiate, for fear of rejection.
Ah. But fear isn't the right word. Nor is suspicion.
Because Darcy was worried things would change.
And they did.
But change is nice.
And some things matter.
#for context they got married during the the plant show asdkfashk which was not going to be canon but it actually works so fug it#this isnt very romantic is it im not that great at romance but this turned kinda sappy asdkjdfhaskjdf#i refuse to proofread this so#toffee rambles#asks#doercy#lore#doeposting#darcyposting

Dark Cupid--Happy Valentines' Day!
I know I'm a bit late, but suffice it to say that I had a lot going on. Just wanted to pop in, say hi, and give you a mini-recap on one of my favorite episodes in Season 1 of Miraculous, Dark Cupid!
Because most of you Miraculers who follow me are in season 5 by now, and have probably watched this episode as many times as I have, I'll make this quick.
So basically, we start with Miss Bustier's class, talking about fairytales. Adrien is writing a love poem, and when called out, gets savage toward his teacher, yadda yadda yadda...
Adrien then throws out his poem, thinking it not good enough for Ladybug. Sabrina and Chloe make him sign his autograph, even though he hates it, by telling him it's for a good cause.
After class, Marinette goes digging in the trash to see what it is that Adrien was writing. She finds what she was looking for, but not before Chloe and Sabrina imply that she's poor and homeless. (I guess they were feeling good about themselves after getting Adrien to sign that poster)
Marinette reads Adrien's poem, assumes it was about her (thanks to Tikki), and celebrates.
Marinette meets up with Alya, and they see Max and Kim talking about a ~mystery girl~ Kim wants to ask to be his Valentine. Like the great friends they are, they encourage and support him. Then Kim becomes a runner and a trackstar.
And can I say that the look Max gives as Kim leaves? Like a proud dad. This was definitely one of Max's best episodes.
So Marinette is encouraged by Kim's situation (and Alya) and decides to write Adrien a poem. We then see an amazing BFF handshake we NEVER. SEE. AGAIN.
We skip to Chloe and her lackey torturing Adrien's fanclub with the signed poster of Adrien. We get the infamous "she's not crying hard enough" scene, and that's that.
Marinette is working hard to write a poem for Adrien, and Alya nags. She finally gains inspiration, and they head to mail it off.
Meanwhile, Kim catches up with Chloe. Of course he would like Chloe. Man, I am so glad he gets Ondine later. Anyway, Chloe acts like a total jerk, so nothing new there. He gets akumatized, surprise, surprise, and turns into *GASP* Dark Cupid!
Dark Cupid makes people hate each other. So yeah. If you needed a comic relief, there's this guy shouting, "STUPID FLOWERS!"
Chloe gets what's coming to her, as Sabrina gets hit and does to her exactly what she did to Kim. So yay.
Chat Noir tries to confess his love to Ladybug, but instead protects her from getting hit by Dark Cupid, where we get this famous sequence:
(Funny how even then, he would sacrifice himself to save her) So anyway, a whole battle goes down and Ladybug realizes that she has to kiss Chat. Obviously, the "Get back, you savage!" had to be put in here.
So Chat Noir (even more Noir than before!) and Dark Cupid are working together, and can I say that they become bros so quick?!
Anyway, you all know what happens next: Chat foreshadows Chat Blanc, as well as Destruction by saying that he wanted to cataclysm a person. Then, Ladynoir's famous first kiss. And Evil Chat is enjoying EVERY SECOND of it.
And then Ladybug yeets Chat at Dark Cupid.
And then the good guys win, as per usual. Chloe gets what she deserved; her poster of Adrien is ruined by Sabrina (even though it should've been reversed by the magical ladybugs).
Adrien gets Marinette's Valentines card, but it isn't signed, so he thinks it's from Ladybug for some reason. Like, what?! And then he doesn't put two and two together until Season 3, episode: Stormy Weather 2. Um, excuse you?!
Calm down, simpy boy.
Personally, I think because we've had a couple of Christmas episodes, we can probably have another Valentines' episode. There is so much you can do with Valentine's day, and I feel like they cramped a lot of really good ideas into one episode. Oh, well...
So yeah, that's my recap of one of the best episodes in Season 1. I love this episode, and it mostly serves as a comfort episode when things are too serious.
Any commentary I made in this post is purely opinion, and it's not meant to be taken seriously. Love you guys, byeeeeee

Meta: What do you associate with your character (like, songs, images, troupes, ect)?
OOC// Note: We're gonna talk mental health here, so maybe skip this if you're not feeling it. Also I talk a lot idek if it's all super relevant but I don't shut up.
I sometimes struggle with these but ig it's a time to ramble about my characters kinda day lol. I have a bunch of songs on Milo's playlist that remind me of him and his past and his whole vibe. Which his whole vibe is the theme of like hope versus hopelessness. I'm mean and ruined his life as he was finally beginning to get more of a grip on his mental health and life in general- when he was really starting to feel hopeful about the future. Because it's an interesting point, when you become more aware of your mental health, and you start to recognize the patterns, start to understand the effects, but you can't help it, or you want to self-destruct, or you don't care enough to do the things you know will help. Milo's a very personal character to me, more so than Arden, honestly. You know, all characters have an aspect of yourself in them, but I did dump a lot onto him, and so much of his history involves themes that I love and really get to me.
Anyway, trope-y wise, (and apologies bc I never know the like specific names of character tropes and I can never get through the massive list on tvtropes to find em) you know, widely speaking, he's kind of a combo stoner/skater/gamer, but he's also very like 'the heart of the group' kind of character. He has a lot of love and kindness in his heart, and he cares so much about people- more than he does himself. He always wants to cheer people up, cheer them on, he'll be there to listen and support and will make himself look stupid if it gets someone to smile. He puts other people before himself. A bit of comic relief/sunshine boy/soft boi/defender of the innocent. He's been through some awful shit, has felt miserable, and he doesn't want that for other people. I think of, like, Garfield Logan (aka Beast Boy) and Joker Moreau from Mass Effect.
Songs that stand out to me: TALES OF DOMINICA by Lil Nas X, Achilles Come Down by Gang og Youths, Lost in IKEA by CLIFFDIVER, Dungeons & Dragons by Jenny Owen Youngs, A Better Son/Daughter by Rilo Kiley, Loser by Sueco, If it's True from Hadestown, Last Hope by Paramore, Mood Ring by Lorde, City by DBMK, Numb Little Bug by Em Beihold, Control by Halsey, A Burning Hill by Mitski, and The World Is Ugly by My Chemical Romance.
Images: Brambles, scorch marks, goofy smiles, a group of friends being young and dumb, sharing a joint, emotionlessly lying in bed, sitting with back to a wall curled up and crying, taking a protective stance in front of someone, late nights playing video games, gripping a sink with both hands while looking into a mirror, razor blades, a parent yelling at a child, a comforting hand on a shoulder
#suicidal ideation tw#self harm tw#domestic abuse tw#weed tw#all just vaguely but still#Anonymous#wickedsanon#ooc#i could ramble forever sry about it

What are your thoughts on the w leotard and the w heroine dynamics? (analysis or headcanons, whatever fits)
W LEOTARD .... i've never seen someone call them that before it made me laugh out loud
i'll start with gf army then , umika and tsukasa !! i really enjoy their time together on screen . if we're talking analysis , i guess i can try to find some mirrors here and there . like how tsukasa keeps her interests a secret while umika is more open about it . though granted i have a hard time finding mirrors between them and sakuya and touma . i do think that's mostly because they're not as mentally ill as whatever w red or noel have going tho .
for umika alone , she's probably the one to come out of lupat the best . i mean , she's studying in france now and she seems to be pretty happy with shiho too . it sometimes hurts when i think about how she got stuck in this mess , and how in the end she just wanted everyone to be friends . thinking about it , she sacrificed a lot of her youth to become a phantom thief . and the fact that she was okay with just being a passerby like touma and kairi in the end ... somehow i have a feeling she doesn't really want that . i hope she can bring the group back together one day .
tsukasa is . definitely the most mentally stable out of everyone in the show . literally the best cop to come out of the show , but i don't think she was given much to work with other than being the gap moe competent one . i wish we could've seen more of her relationship with everyone cause right now most of her interactions are just , oh yeah she's the big sister figure to everyone . i think this could've been helped with diving back to her backstory during her academy days a bit more . i like the implied awkward friendship she has going on with touma though !!
about umika and tsukasa as a ship ... i can see the appeal and i don't see anything wrong with it , but it does give me the feeling of " the lesbian ship that exists to bully or take care of the gay ships " if you know what trope i'm thinking about . i much prefer umika with shiho , and tsukasa with none of the main cast because she needs to focus on herself !!!!
( also hesbian tsukasa and nonbinary or demigirl umika is so real don't come at me )
moving on . i like sakuya ! .... if i ignore half the things he did in the show . i think he's a little stupid and definitely immature . like you can see he's competent when he puts his mind to it , but god he does spend a lot of time onscreen just being stupid or creepy doesn't he . i think estrogen could fix him . other than that , i like the character that they gave to him if we ignore all the uncomfortable shit he did . he's clearly got low self confidence , and a bit of an inferiority complex . i feel like the pats really come best as a trio , they're like a little family to me , if only they learned to be more caring to one another . cause i can definitely imagine the sibling-like relationship they'd have with one another .
as for touma ... he's my number one punching bag i love him . i really like the autism they pumped into him and i just can't help but make him suffer a little bit for comedic purposes . though if i stop thinking about him as a comic relief for just a moment i think i'll start getting sad . i wish we dove a bit more into his backstory , i wish we got to see more of him with aya . i think they rely on one another a lot . and idk i love reading into throaway lines , but umika once called out " hey look everyone ! touma is eating !! " now i don't mean to read too much into this but maybe despite being a cook , touma struggles with his own relationship with food or something . we know he started cooking because of aya too ... there's just so much that could be explored then .
some people won't agree with me for this but sakuya / touma is a hilarious ship i love when touma suffers . it's like putting him up max tsundere levels but in the silently i'm going to either kill you or kill myself way . it's even funnier if you consider that aya and sakuya would definitely get along and she'd be like " CAN WE KEEP HIM " . anywayss , i like ayatou if that hasn't been obvious yet . and i think for sakuya ships , i think he needs to work on himself more ...
for headcanons , i'm an aroacespec touma believer , i believe his relationship with aya is so much more than romance , and i really wish we could've seen more of them . also sakuya is genderfluid and bisexual to me , that genderswap episode was really suspicious i think he'd want to get into it again .
i think that's about it for now !!!

RANT !! this has to be said.
the fact i just realized there’s an “anti scott mcall” tag just baffles me. it’s just weird. you can dislike scott but there is zero reason to make an anti tag.
sure, he made stupid mistakes but it’s the fact y’all want him out of the show? he’s the fucking main character and no one’s perfect. he’s a flawed character and let’s not act like your favs aren’t deeply flawed as well?
most of the people who interact or interfere with this tag are sterek or stiles stilinski fans which is pretty sad. y’all are either mad cause tyler p said the sterek ship is “twisted” (even though it’s really not that deep) or y’all just hating to hate. SMH LOL.
since scott McCall appreciation week is starting tomorrow imma just say that many people think that his character is “bland” or “boring” compared to the other characters which is wrong. everyone is entitled to their opinions so let me state mine real quick.
scott tends to be “bland” to most stiles fans because that’s who most people focus on for “comic relief” on the show. that’s why no one notices the good things he does for the others around him.
also, there are ppl in the anti tag saying how tyler posey is a racist (when it isn't even true) just because their bitter. aka, the same people who bash on tyler p but stan peter hales actor- who has been called out for many problematic things?
the hatred of scott mccall literally gets too much to the point where there are people are hating on the innocent, "im the hot girl" scene. WHAT?? HOW COULD SOMEONE HATE SCOTT IN THAT SCENE. i literally thought it was so funny with stiles and isaac and so adorable.
tyler p's done some stuff irl but anti's have gone way too far, just cause he has a fucking only fans doesn't mean shit. sterek fans/anti tyler p and scott mcalls have gone way over the top and made fun of how scott looks and his jaw- comparing it stiles/ dylan o brien. LIKE.. come awn now yall. literally everyone is attractive in the show and the haters can't pull any of them lmfao.
scott mccall has also done things, ALL the characters have but yet you feel the need to attack him only? like that time scott believed theo over stiles, that was dumb. really dumb- like why would you believe some rando over your bestfriend. but now yall are just throwing words in.
no one mentions how stiles treated scott like a literal dog during the first few seasons, when he couldn't control himself just because lydia kissed scott- (scott wasn't even himself) no one mentions how stiles made fun of liam's IED. no one mentions how he was always negative towards isaac. no one talks about how he literally pushed his dad into drinking more alcohol even though noah was known to have an alcohol problem. stiles acts as if he knows isaac's trauma, but really he doesn't. he also played with malia's feelings, i could list a whole lot of things- but im not a hypocrite. i can list a whole lot of things with scott as well.
so really what i'm saying here is that all characters have flaws- and there's no reason to make an 'anti' tag because that's what makes them realistic.

You have one F/O Gush ticket! Gush about your main F/O!
OMG THANK YOU, ANON! This is right up my alley! :D
So, as I'm sure most of you know at this point, Scrat's been my all-time favorite character/main F/O since I was 12.
And he's just. SO fucking cute y'all, I love everything about him. I love his nervous and frantic nature and of course his "nutty" personality. :3 I love how he becomes this blissfully sighing lovestruck dork when it comes to his acorn and of course Scratte.
I love that in spite of his hilarious yet unhealthy nut obsession, he grew to care about two others aside from his acorn in different ways. I'm of course talking about Scratte and Baby Scrat. <3 And that's the other thing, he can be a selfish little shit sometimes but he ain't too bad a father still! And he was a pretty good husband to Scratte for a while before he made that one really big fuckup that I love to make fun of him for along with some other stupid decisions he made. XD
There's just so much charm and personality to his character and I swear that I wouldn't have loved him as much as I do now if he spoke. I mean I'm sure I'd still love him obviously but him being this silent comic relief character and with no dialog from him in any of his scenes just adds so much more charm to him and I'm really glad that they stuck to that by not having Scratte or Baby Scrat talk either! And Chris Wedge does such a fantastic job voicing him and will always be THE one and only Scrat! ^w^
I also love that no matter how many times he failed to get his acorn and how unlucky he was, he never gave up and kept trying with all his might to acquire it. And now, after so many years of failing his goal, he finally eats it and gets the happy ending he deserved all along and I couldn't be happier for him. ;w; He definitely has his flaws when it comes to how he interacts with others when it comes to his acorn, but he's my ultimate meow-meow and his flaws make me love him even more tbh! It's part of his charm and the comedy of his character. UwU
So yeah, there you have it. Sorry it got kinda long but if you ask me about my f/o's, let alone my main one and I'll go off on a tangent for sure! Hope this was a good enough gushing over him. ^w^ Thanks again for the wonderful message, anon! <D

I was thinking about 13sar, and I love Miura because one of his primary character traits is simply having strong common sense, which is so satisfying. It’s unfortunately a pretty uncommon trait to give a character, which is odd because it’s one of the most valuable things a person can have.
He’s not a Sherlock type who has the whole plot figured out from minimal evidence, he just makes the most logical deductions using the information he does have. Even if they’re not exactly correct, we can still follow his very valid thought process. What makes it so good is that he can see outside of his own bias. He grew up in this 1945 Japan propaganda-filled setting which strongly affects his worldview, but when he learns facts that contradict it, he’s ready to set all that aside to make the best decisions.
This character writing is so refreshing compared to what you see in other media. A lot of characters, namely in stories with mysteries and plot twists, are written to be absolute idiots who are far dumber than the reader/player/etc. They miss obvious hints for no good reason and make stupid choices and assumptions until you’re sighing at them through the screen, all to cheaply further the plot.
Alternatively, you get Mary Sue/Gary Stus who are supergeniuses in a tell-not-show kind of way. They never make mistakes, and the writer isn’t clever enough to actually show their thought process, they just skip straight to the correct answer as if they knew it from the start.
To clarify, I’m not talking about characters who are dunces for comic relief, characters who are weighed down by bias as a fatal flaw, ones who have an air of mystery and superior intellect from the narrator’s perspective, or characters who are just really smart, who are maybe even sharper than the reader, I’m talking about lazy, unrealistic writing.
13sar did a great job making a character be on-par with the player. The only things I can think of at the moment that have a similar effect are DGS/The Great Ace Attorney and a couple books I’ve read. But this is what makes characters satisfying to play as. We can think their thoughts, and that allows us to connect to them. Even when these characters in particular come from a different country in a long-gone time period and aren’t relatable to us in terms of their lives, we can relate to them because they think like real people, anywhere in the world at any point in history. Common sense is what makes characters feel realistic, and is necessary to make someone “smart” a round character.

"Look at poor Raine, trying so hard to play a bad guy so the other bad guys don’t catch on and failing miserably at it. Look at them. Not an evil bone in their body. Then again, I suppose they’re the head of the Bard Coven, not the Acting Coven."- Terra Snapdragon agrees.
I tried reading that in Terra's voice... and I hate that it sounds exactly like something she could say.
More asks below
I laughed a little.
Fun Fact: A helicopter parent is what we in Swedish call a curling parent.
This one?
(i've had this image sitting in a folder of "useful images" for nearly two years and now it finally pays off)
Because I guess Eda and Lilith managed to save that while the house was being ransacked? Priorities!
There is also maybe something to be said about King up until very recently being a little guy himself. Yes, he always thought of himself as a big and important person, the King of Demons. But no one else ever believed him about that. With the revelations in Echoes of the Past, he started moving away from that, focusing more on trying to find out the truth of his past and his family.
Then, suddenly, he finds out that he's a titan. A VERY important person. Whereas before, he was relegated mostly to comic relief sidekick, he now has the ability to play a very important role in the narrative, which he does by freeing The COllector, changing the course of the story forever.
At the same time, we see how Lilith reacts to this, she begins to basically worship him like he always wanted people to do in the past. But now it makes him very uncomfortable. He connects with Steve, someone far removed from that, someone who has no idea about his "tall genes."
In an ironic twist, the fact that King no longer wishes to be a king might just be what makes him more suited to be one. You know the old saying about how the people who donät want power are always the most worthy, or something like that?
Not that I think King will literally become the King of the Boiling Isles or something. Then again... with Belos gone and the revelations of his true intentions, the government would be in upheaval...
The circumstances and scale are different, but Camila and Eda were both, in their own ways, trying to protect Luz.
Camila sending Luz to summer camp, while misguided, was in the end for Luz' own sake. Luz' has a beautifully creative mind, but her creative energy was not being channeled properly which resulted in her bringing live snakes and fireworks to school. Which is obviously not a good thing. Furthermore, some clues hint at Luz being a victim of bullying (for example, Camila mentioned Luz doesn't really have any friends, and how apprehensive Luz was about Vee talking to the kids in the parks during Yesterday's Lie), likely due to her unique personality... as is sadly often the case in real life.
Now, the threats Eda was trying to protect Luz from were a bit more concrete and obvious: bad guys are trying to kill them. So it's a bit... itäs a lot different, but I can see the association being made in Luz' mind, though maybe not consciously.
Eberwolf: *sees darius trying to be cool*
Eberwolf: òwó
I almost feel kinda bad for Darius, because he's obviously trying so hard, but no one will let him be cool. Not only does Raine have to choose a stupid name for their little rebel group, but he can't even pose on top of a carriage in peace.
I must've been tired when I wrote that, because I could have worded that a lot better, but whatever.
I kinda glossed over that being Raine and Luz first proper meeting because Luz has known about Raine since Follies at the Coven Day Parade. She knew who they are and what they look like, while Darius and Eberwolf (and also Amber & Derwin) would be total strangers to her.
... the fact that this question is asked in this way makes me think that Luz' palisman is not going to be a bird at all. And I'm not sure what else it would be. I mean, it's the obvious answer... right? Luz is the main character protagonist of The Owl House. And with the whole "Eda is Luz' adopted mom" thing going on, I figured it made sense for her palisman to reflect that and be an owl, or at the very least some kind of bird to reflect that.
As for other animals I'd associate with Luz... I'm drawing a blank here.

Idea 🔞(kink with plot) 18+🔞
Sad Jack, bitchy Rhys, a little spoonful of fat shaming, then fat adoring, then Zane being the comic relief.
Rhys and Jack break up after being together for almost a year. It all comes crumbling down because Rhys wants more and Jack's still keeping a guard up, not opening up enough for Rhys to feel like he's committed to their relationship. Jack's never even said "I love you" unprompted. Rhys will say it and Jack will tease him playfully, or throw him a "well how could I not love a dumb-dumb like you", but he hasn't straight up said "I love you".
Jack acts like he doesn't care but he really does. He really really does. He can't stop thinking about Rhys, constantly wanting to rope him back in, sending him gifts or dumb notes, but Rhys is stubborn. If Jack won't take him seriously, then he won't give him the time if day.
Rhys stops even speaking to Jack for a few months outside of work. He doesn't reply to messages, doesn't respond to anything he says if it's not work, he straight up blanks him if their paths cross. It drives Jack insane, he misses Rhys like crazy, actually feeling sick that he's not in his life anymore, that he might be moving on and Jack will officially lose him forever...
The only thing that comforts him after that is junk food and carbonated drinks. Yeah, he eats his feelings, and of course, he gains weight. It's not egregious - he was already kind of chubby, classic beginner "dad bod" - but his bad habits become diabolical and the weight piles on more than he even realises (his best friend, Zayn, makes comments about it, teasing him, but Jack's in major denial).
Then there's a big fancy Hyperion party. Jack's squeezed into a new suit (because yeah all his old suits "shrunk"), and he's schmoozing with other boring high level executives, before seeing Rhys across the room, looking absolutely gorgeous with his slim fit suit and long legs and fresh face and-
It hurts Jack's heart, and having a hurt heart makes him angry.
So he excuses himself. He rounds the table of free food and grabs a plate of cupcakes and brownies and whatever else, and storms off out the party to some private room tucked away (like a board meeting room or something - somewhere unoccupied, you know). He pulls a chair out and collapsed and starts stuffing his face, wanting to replace his hurt feelings with yummy food...
"Seems weird for the CEO not to attend his own party."
Jack looks round to see Rhys standing at the door, arms crossed, face neutral. Jack jumps out of his chair and clears his throat, stunned that Rhys is talking to him; even if his tone is cold.
"Needed a break from all the ass kissing, you know how it is, pumpkin," he laughs, trying to come of suave and nonchalant, but Rhys just scowls, rolling his eyes, which (upsets) annoys Jack. "Why you even here if just being around me disgusts you so much?"
"God you're still so dense. Maybe I was hoping you'd finally changed after more than 6 months apart and realised what matters more than you're stupid ego, but I was wrong."
"Oh how would you even know if I've changed, huh?! You haven't freakin' spoken to me in God knows how long!"
"I can tell just from the last 2 minutes that the only thing that's changed about you is your damn waistline."
Rhys has always been catty, bitchy, and it was one of the things Jack loved about him...even when he was on the recieving end of it.
Jack scoffs and turns away. "Whatever. Least I'm not a stuck up pencil pushing twink-"
Jack suddenly cuts himself off when Rhys throws himself at him, slipping his hands under his suit jacket and grabbing his love handles. He pins Jack against the long table in the centre of the room. Jack gasps, his own hands landing on Rhys' shoulders instinctively, and a fast fiery blush bleeds across his face, thankfully hidden by his mask. Rhys leans in close, lips so temptingly close Jack can almost taste him.
"You got real fat." Rhys practically growls, squeezing hard at the fat deposits spilling over his hips. Jack can't help but curl his toes in his shoes; was this really turning him on right now, being fat shamed, or did he just miss Rhys that much?! "Did you miss me that much you had to comfort yourself with food?"
Abso-fucking-lutely. "No! Fuck you-"
"Awe, c'mon Jackie, be honest with me," Rhys smirks as his hand slides over to his midsection, rubbing wide circles into his belly before grabbing a roll of his fat, making Jack involuntarily buck his hips. "Without me around, you couldn't help but succumb to your own gluttony. Just admit you missed me."
Jack can't tell if the humiliation is a good or a bad thing. His dick knows, sure, but those walls that he hides behind, that he needs to keep his vulnerability safe and sound, it makes him want to run. He's frozen, staring at Rhys, letting him manhandle the fat belly he's been denying exists.
God, he's missed Rhys...he's missed those hands touching him, he's missed that face up close and beautiful, he's missed the smell of his cologne, the gentle brush of his breath, his everything. He's been trying to deny that too, that he's missed him, that he needs him, and having him here, being in his arms, being so fucking close to his lips...
He starts to tear up.
And Rhys' face drops. The smug, pissed off expression vanishes into concern, and that's Jack's Rhys, the sweet, kind, perfect man who loves being bitchy but wants those he cares about to be happy and wears his heart on his sleeve. Jack's missed him so fucking much, he can't handle it anymore, he can't stand being without him, and Jesus Christ the water works just start flooding his face.
"J-Jack? Oh, I-I'm sorry, I, uh...I should go-" but as he stars to pull away, Jack grabs him by the collar of his shirt and forces him into a deep kiss, and Rhys barely even needs a second to comprehend before he's kissing back, hands roaming Jack's body greedily.
They start undressing each other feverishly, before they're both left in just their boxers and open shirts. Jack's panting, staring at Rhys, eyes still watery, his expression so tender, like nothing Rhys has ever seen before. With his shirt open, Rhys can admire his body properly, and he really likes what he sees...yeah, Jack was chubby, and Rhys liked it, but now, his belly is so round and doughy and begging to be squeezed, accessorised by fiery raw red stretch marks, and it folds over from the way he leans, and Rhys wants nothing more than to cover it in deep love bites. Everything is bigger, his chest is fuller, his thighs are wider- God he wants to turn him over just to get a good look at how fat his ass must have gotten. Rhys is rediculously turned on, it's almost painful how hard he is.
Jack swallows down. "Rhys, I..." He chokes on his voice and clears his throat. Rhys steps in closer, cupping Jack's face, and Jack finally managed to muster up the courage. "I love you. I always have. I love you so much."
Rhys' face breaks out into a wide goofy smile. He laughs under his breath and shakes his head, tears pricking behind his eyes. "You do?" And Jack nods frantically, grabbing Rhys' arms, nuzzling into his palm.
"I've never loved anyone like I love you. I can't get you outta my mind, I think about you every freakin' day, missing you, wishing I was with you. I was so stupid, I was scared - scared of losing you, and even when I did, I still couldn't get over my own shit, but...but I don't care anymore, I can't live without you, Rhys, I can't a life without you. I love you. I love you, I love you, I love-"
He's cut off when Rhys kisses him, squeezing his face between his hands. "I love you too, Jack, you big dumb-dumb."
They laugh together, still crying, faces hurting from smiling so much. Jack lifts his hands to brush through Rhys' hair.
"It's getting long. You growing it out?"
"A little." Rhys looks down. He playfully pokes Jack's belly. "You gonna keep this?"
Jack rolls his eyes. "Yeah alright, I got fat. I'll start going to the gym ASAP-" Rhys slaps his hand over Jack's mouth, grinning mischievously as he shakes his head.
"Uh, I don't think so. I'll only agree to getting back together if you promise this doesn't go anywhere."
Jack's eyes bulge out. He moves Rhys' hand away. "You actually like the belly?"
"God, you really are an idiot sometimes, Jack. I always liked the belly. Now?" He moves his hands to slide over Jack's midsection, tenderly rubbing and squeezing at the soft flesh, making Jack inhale suddenly. "Now I love the belly. I bet it would jiggle real nice if I fucked you."
Jack can't help the pathetic whine that escapes him, squeezing his thighs together as his dick twitches. Rhys notices, biting his lip, which just makes Jack even more needy.
"I'm gonna cum my pants like a horny teenager if you keep talking like that, cupcake." But the admission doesn't stop Rhys from groping him more so, leaning in against his throat to kiss softly. Rhys glances over Jack's shoulder to notice the plate of goodies he'd snuck away with.
"You barely even touched your plate, big guy. I bet this belly of yours is so hungry." Rhys pulls a hand back to slap Jack's belly and chuckles when the older man actually moans through clenched teeth. He returns to squeezing his fat fondly, hard enough he'll leave nail bites. "I've got a proposal for you...why don't I fuck you hard over this desk while you eat? Make this cute tummy of yours happy and fatter?"
Jack's eyes involuntarily cross into the middle for a split second before he's nodding. "Please, Rhysie. Please."
And so Rhys throws Jack over the desk and gets him prepped before fucking him nice and slow, cradling his belly and whispering words of encouragement as Jack shoves the cupcakes into his mouth. By the time they're done, Jack's collapsed lazily on the table, face covered in frosting, while Rhys is kneading his plush fat ass cheeks, watching as his cum dribbles out between his cheeks. He helps get Jack's pants back on, then hikes him up with great effort to get the rest of his suit on. Jack's limbs are loose and lazy, and his face the epitome of dopey, and as watches Rhys' hands fiddle with the buttons of Jack's shirt.
When they're both dressed, Rhys gives Jack a quick kiss. "So you and me?"
Jack hums happily. "You and me, kiddo, forever." He wraps his arms around Rhys' neck. "I ain't ever letting you out my sight again."
Rhys rolls his eyes. "C'mon, let's get you to bed and into some pajamas."
As Rhys pulls Jack to his feet, the room's door is suddenly opened. The pair freeze as they're met with a new pair of eyes.
"Ah, I fucking knew you two were shagging somewhere," Zane laughs smugly, crossing his arms. "About time, too." Then he notices the icing smeared over Jack's face. "Jack, buddy, your sweet tooth is getting outta hand if you're scoffing down while Rhys plows you."
Jack sighs, much to Rhys' amusement. "Always appreciate the support, Zane."
Zane salutes theatrically. "You need a hand escorting fatty over here, boy-o?"
Despite Jack's offence, Rhys nods. "If you could. He is kinda heavy-"
"Oh so much for liking me getting fat!"
Rhys places a kiss to Jack's cheek. "I love you getting fat."
Jack raises a brow but can't help smiling. "Yeah...I love you too, kiddo."
..........
(WOW THIS ENDED UP BEING SO MUCH FUCKING LONGER THAN I PLANNED, ITS NOT A "FIC" BUT THIS IS A BIT MORE THAN JUST AN IDEA, HUH!!!!!!!)
#holy shit this ended up long as fuck......#Jack and Rhys being kinky weirdos except i added feelings and drama

Choco Cone Cookie AU
So I came up with a Cookie Run AU a few days ago, and... I’m gonna talk about it here, but the idea is- it’s not stupid, I think it’s very interesting (because I’m an AU nerd), but it might come across as dumb to others. I call it the Choco Cone AU.
So basically, the premise of this AU was a part of my “Dark Chocoverse” brainrot where I imagined Dark Choco Cookie in different roles for characters. One of these roles was him being in Strawberry Crepe Cookie’s place, where he’s associated with Wafflebots and is the initially unnamed Cookie the crew meets in the Vanilla Kingdom. And then I started building more onto this idea because I was hyperfixating on the theme of Strawberry Crepe Cookie’s character, which a cyborg-like character who does all these analysis things and techy stuff and yeah.
For the most part, the AU’s been kinda comical. I’ve been talking about it with friend, who I share just about all of my brainrot with, and there’s been more comical scenes than angsty ones, which is a new record for me I think. Like, the scene we just talked about today was a Licorice Oozling getting loose in the Black Citadel thanks to Dark Choco Cookie, and how he’s trying to track it down and catch it before the others find out.
I’m also trying to figure out the backstory/lore for this AU. Like how Dark Choco Cookie ended up in the Vanilla Kingdom and how he ended up fused with these Wafflebot parts, becoming a cyborg and all. The current thing I’m going with is that he suffered some kind of tragic accident and needed life-saving surgery, as he lost limbs. And, at least in this AU, not even Pure Vanilla Cookie’s miracle magic can reattach lost limbs. Maybe the accident in question, if I keep this plotline, could be related to the Dark Flour War with everything going on.
As a result of the accident in question and the spell that sealed away the Vanilla Kingdom, Dark Choco Cookie suffered total amnesia. He remembered basic knowledge and stuff, but he forgot everything about who he was, including his name and where he comes from. But he did still remember that he was a Cookie. There are moments where he can experience deja vu related to his past, such as the licorice smell coming from Licorice Cookie (and probably his name alone tbh) and Dark Enchantress Cookie. He doesn’t know WHY he gets this sense of deja vu and longing, but he does, and it can be pretty distracting at times.
Now, this AU doesn’t get rid of Strawberry Crepe Cookie entirely. The skrunkly still exists in this AU. I don’t really know how I’m going to implement them into the story/setting, but the idea I got not too long ago was that Strawberry Crepe Cookie found Dark Choco Cookie and they’re kinda like a little found family. Obviously this leads to some conflict come Cookie Odyssey and Dark Cacao Cookie finds out that his son is, in fact, still alive. Pretty much hasn’t aged a day and didn’t even know Dark Cacao Cookie or the Dark Cacao Kingdom existed prior to the Council of Heroes, but that’s a topic for another day!
Like, Dark Choco Cookie’s character here isn’t a carbon copy of Strawberry Crepe Cookie. That’s not what I want. Unlike Strawberry Crepe Cookie, who seems to have known how to navigate Wafflebots and data from the moment they gained awareness, Dark Choco Cookie has no idea what is going on. The kid even designed a similar headset for him, one based on the Choco Cone Lancers, and he’s just looking at the data stream like (:D)
At the same time, Dark Choco Cookie’s cluelessness when it comes to technology isn’t solely played for laughs and he’s not just additional comic relief in the AU. Here, he’d be a much stronger opponent than Strawberry Crepe Cookie, especially in terms of the lore and what the boss battle was like from a lore perspective. Because although his brain memory is gone, his muscle (dough?) memory is still there, and he’s an experienced fighter. In this AU’s storyline, Strawberry Crepe Cookie would run to Dark Choco Cookie and be a little tattletale on GingerBrave and friends, and then they’d fight for that reason. Like, what I’m picturing is Dark Choco Cookie holding like a laser cannon and aiming it at the main crew, despite 4/5 (4/6 if you count Healer Cookie) being literal children.
Btw, the name of the AU comes from Dark Choco Cookie’s amnesiac alias, which is literally “Choco Cone Cookie”. He and Strawberry Crepe Cookie could tell that he has a high chocolate count in his dough, and since Strawberry Crepe gave him the similar headset, he took the name “Choco Cone Cookie” after the Wafflebots.
I might write more about this AU and elaborate on it some, maybe even actually write something or draw something (I’d say you can count more on the writing part), and yeah. That’s about it for now.

how would you rate the lotr + hobbit movies, from 1 to 5 stars?
TIME TO REWRITE THESE RATINGS AS I REWATCH (in January 2024) THESE BECAUSE LAST YEAR MY ANSWERS SUCKED.
Lord of the Rings:
The Fellowship of the Ring - 4 stars. I think this movie has a marvelous introduction to Middle Earth and its lore without ever resulting tedious, I absolutely adore the way they worked around Arwen characters to make her more involved in the plot and more interesting overall. While I don't agree with all narrative choices and tiny lore imperfections bother more than they should (WHY DOES GIMLI CALL MORIA "MORIA" FOR ONCE IT'S AN ELVISH NAME) this movie is insane. Boromir's death makes me cry ugly to this day. Only real flaw it has is that because the FotR book is really slow and at times a little boring, the movie feels also slow at times.
The Two Towers - 4,5 stars. THE BATTLE OF HELM'S DEEP. THE ATTACK ON ISENGARD. This movie is packed with good interactions faithful to the text, wonderful action scenes, and most important of all, Eowyn is there. It's probably the closest all the movies get to the books. I love the portrayal of the Rohirrim. Not a full 5 stars again for the Gimli slander, I really can't stand the fact that this is the movie where he decided to make him a fully comic relief character. Also I love Legolas surfing a shield while he shoots enemies, 10/10.
The Return of the King - 4 stars. This movie is wonderful, makes me cry every time I rewatch it but by god the ENDING NEVER COMES. My girlfriend and I rewatched the whole extended trilogy a couple years ago and we both nodded off for a good half an hour during the very last bit of the movie, and when we woke back up, Aragorn was yet to be crowned. Not a full five stars because they cut out the scene where Eomer finds Eowyn on the battlefield and thinks her dead from the released version, despite it being the best, most heartwrenching scene in the movies. I do love the "what about side by side with a friend" scene but it doesn't fix the fact that Peter Jackson pretty much saw Legolas and Gimli's relationship in the books, spit on it and replaced it with Legolas and Aragorn instead. Personal gripes aside, this movie deserves all the recognition it got.
The Hobbit (sigh):
An Unexpected Journey - 2,5 stars. This is probably the best one of the trilogy, because it's the only one that mostly follows the book and has fun, light scenes, where the rest of the movies tend to get overserious for no reason. They butchered the HELL out of Dwarven lore and managed to avoid having to characterize any dwarf that wasn't Thorin despite having 12 others to work with, many of which are RELATED to Thorin. I hate Martin Freeman's ugly dog face so much still, but I can admit sometimes his Bilbo works, I just have a personal bias against it. I love Richard Armitage as Thorin and to me he's the shining jewel of the trilogy, BUT I hate his shorn beard and how young he looks. Thorin is OLD, he's an old king without a kingdom, he's bitter and he's proud, the characterization is decent enough but it really feels like they made him ""hot"" and closer looking to a human just because he's a character of relevance - same thing with Kili, by the way. Also I hate a movie about dwarves that treats the lot of them like comic reliefs.
The Desolation of Smaug - 1,5 stars. This movie is BORING. I literally can't stand to watch it fully because my eyes start watering from boredom. So many useless introductions to characters that don't matter at all, especially the Elves outside of Thranduil. If I love what FotR did with Arwen, I absolutely despise that they only female character they add to the movie is not only boring and uninteresting, she's also just some guy's love interest - AND TO MAKE A ELF/DWARF ROMANCE BORING TO ME IT REALLY MEANS YOU BOTCHED THE HELL OUT OF IT. The only scenes that I like in the movies are the ones with Smaug. Bilbo talking to him? Good stuff. The whole chase scene is insanely stupid but it's kinda genius? absolutely. Calling a dragon stupid and fat and splashing it with molten gold truly does solve problems. The rating could have been higher if I didn't hate the whole deal with Tauriel and Legolas so fucking much. Why is Legolas in this movie dear fucking god I love him but I genuinely think he makes it worse just in virtue of being there. Also THRAIN DOESN'T MENTION HIS DAUGHTER DIS IN HIS LAST WORDS FUCK THIS THIS MOVIE IS STUPID.
The Battle of the Five Armies - 2 stars. This movie sucks BUT I don't completely hate the portrayal of Dwarves in this one and Dàin Ironfoot's presence makes the whole movie shine. Last time I said this was my favourite and I was wrong, I just like Thorin, the movie is so stupid it's insane, it went so far away from The Hobbit but it doesn't stand well enough on its own. The whole deal with the Necromancer works so poorly compared to the insane zigzag of alternating POVs in The Two Towers, it feels shoehorned in there and it doesn't fit, it detracts from y know the BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES. I love Thorin's death scene so much but all the other ones felt so cheap in comparison. Also gonna be controversial but the gaybaiting was tasty, and imo no one would have liked the movies weren't it for the decision to give Bilbo and Thorin a could have been something relationship. It really feels like they added it to make tumblr give it some shipping attention. The scene of Thranduil telling Legolas to "go north and find the Dúnedain" is so funny GO NORTH WHERE. NORTH OF EREBOR? TO FIND ARAGORN WHO AT THE TIME WAS A FUCKING CHILD AND LIVING IN FUCKING RIVENDELL? FUCK YOU AND YOUR LEGOLAS/ARAGORN AGENDA PETER JACKSON.
I can't believe what I said last year I need to stop writing stuff when my "fandom brain" is online
